Sorocracy

00:00 Okay, we need some coffee over here. Adam Curry, John C. DeVore It's Thursday August 18th 2016 this is your award-winning Gitmo Nation media assassination episode 852 This is no agenda Up to my ankles in rainwater and broadcasting live from the capital of the drone star state Austin Tejas here in FEMA Region 6 In the morning everybody I'm Adam Curry And from northern Silicon Valley where it's not raining but its drizzling Drizzling I say, I'm John C. DeVore. Uh, aren't you on like the 70th floor or something? Yeah. It's coming right underneath my front door. There is just water rolling into my apartment. You're not on the ground floor! No I think that roof is leaking and it's leaking down

00:58 I don't know, some piping or something and it has found a hole right in front of my door. So that kind of seeps out... Like hey what is this? There's water everywhere! What kinda construction are we doing here dude? What an era were you in? Oh yeah tell me about it This is the cheapest cheap ass construction they've ever could have thought of here But have no fear The Ares Have been called up In Louisiana That's right. The Amateur Radio Emergency Systems? Oh, cool. CQ 73 33 and a third. And so you know that actually television this doesn't translate very well to TV but I received a report from one of our producers this is really a pretty big disaster that's going on you just can't you know all they keep showing on the news is although great great television the guy who saves the lady and then saves her dog

01:58 And that is great, but man. Oh yeah fantastic I mean there's thousands of people who are still on the highway and stuck in their cars It's ridiculous this is like it's like it's raining too much Yeah let me see they call the 500 year flood Let me just see this is from Kayla We had a thousand year one recently so now there's a five hundred There was also 100 recently So they're running out of things to say Right Let me read this note from producer Caleb from Lafayette. Nobody's ever experienced this kind of flooding here. People are still stranded on the interstate, thousands are still waiting to be rescued from homes more than 30 thousand are in shelters around town and each of those shelters has a ham radio operator there that everyone is in contact with over 10 thousand have been rescued and that number continues to climb In one of the towns I grew up in Denham Springs 90% of homes have been flooded my house was fine but lots of friends aren't

02:57 And he says it did take several days for the Obama administration to declare this disaster, to free up federal resources which was disappointing because he's much quicker to talk about one person being shot in Baton Rouge instead of thousands losing everything. I think that is an excellent point. Excellent point But have no fear when the apocalypse comes where the guys who are going to save the world right? Right, right. Seven threes on saving the world. So I guess the hams are busy finally yeah the hams are good at that there's also some I was listening in last night a couple frequencies see what's going on Yeah what is going on like we got people over here Oh it's true about that so we got people over here in this jet

03:45 It's kind of that Yeah, that would be right. But if something serious you know some communication makes people feel better to know they can dare even lost complete contact with everybody in the outside world and said the hams do that if nothing else yeah exactly there's real emergencies they can jump into action it was funny because the ARRL the amateur radio relay league sent out a note this is very funny uh because you know how these hams are they put on their emergency yellow jackets and

04:23 Amateur radio volunteers are responding to help. States of emergency have been declared Louisiana section amateur radio emergency services, ARIS has activated and put out a call for volunteers please note amateurs should not self-deploy to the affected area don't self deploy I guess you have to go to the group meeting. You can't just, uh... Oh yeah no none of this freelance shit with no lone wolf hams! Hey Kilo 5 Alpha Charter Charlie everybody! Ah you know what they're there. They're there This is how all those guys like well honey sure helped out I guess we gotta buy a new rig now if ya don't mind That's a good excuse to buy a new rig Yeah y'know I could've saved more people if only I had the right rig

05:17 Oh boy, okay. There we go. The only show that has ham humor... And ham humor is usually pretty lame. Although I think we brought it to a new level of height. Yeah, I agree. You are in particular responsible for this. Thank you for getting me into it. I will totally take credit for that! I really appreciate it. And, I think it's kind of steamrolled we probably picked up...I think I'm probably responsible for maybe three to four HAMS. Oh more than that? Oh no! There must be a No Agenda HAMS website somewhere. How about closer to 50 or 60 HAMS? Really?! Yeah! That's good. So I've done my job. Your work is done here sir very good back-to-day trading okay

06:09 Hey, last night Jill Stein was on the CNN's. Yes with Cuomo Yeah I kind of missed that and I missed the other thing also miss the Trump Thing I got oh I got some from the Trump thing one clip And I have actually two clips from this Jill now Jill Stein along with a Jamu Baraka yeah He is the vice presidential candidate for the Green Party interesting guy This Baraka guy. He was part of the Human Rights Network, he was one of the co-founders and I think Human Rights Network might actually be one of the human rights organizations that is real. Oh? You know, Human Rights Now... Or USAID. Yeah so I do not believe he's a USAID guy

06:58 Seems pretty good, you know he's got kind of that Morgan Freeman one earring in the left ear. A little odd I think after even...I'm not wearing an earring anymore gotta stop that this of course is the completely spontaneous town hall. I think it'd look good with a earing and a ponytail And a nose ring and a tat Right on the neck This is Chris Cuomo and of course this is the Town Hall completely Free form and an open and just a conversation, right? Let's get to another question Jasmine rebid Avia. She is a second grade teacher from New York City How badly did I mangle your name by the way let me hear it the right way Rebida via Okay, so I guess they rehearsed everything including asking the questions you

07:50 You're not supposed to say that Cuomo. That is a, you almost started off the show with a clip of the day! Oh I don't get one? I'll give you borderline. I'll take it. Bye! Holy crap! And so i'm watching this and i'm in the kitchen like oh stop rewind what is that Jill Stein is interesting. She was much more interesting to listen to than Gary Johnson when he was doing the similar town hall. Yeah, well at least she had some dynamics and she brought up something that we discussed probably two election cycles ago when this program was just starting about the debate committee

08:32 and how the debate committee is made up of Republicans and Democrats. And, of course, the biggest... Well first of all there are so many people who have been taught and believe that we have a two-party system in America if you go to Europe and say about that American system yeah two party system Which is categorically untrue. The Republicans, Democrats would like you to believe that but you have all kinds of candidates and there are four different parties such as the Green Party, the Libertarians or completely... I think they've done a wonderful job, the Democrats and Republicans, convincing people this bullcrap is a meme! And you suggest hey why don't you vote for Jill Stein if you want a woman president? It's a wasted vote! Vote for Jill Stein instead of Trump!

09:14 Well here's- Boy, as far as I could be a vote for Hillary. Here's Jill Stein explaining and this is good since we don't have to do it explaining exactly what the problem is This is about We The People standing up As Americans we not only have a right to vote we have a right to know who we can vote for And the Commission on Presidential Debates is not just an ordinary public interest commission. It's a private corporation that is run, excuse me of by and for the Democratic and Republican parties The League of Women Voters quit the debates when the commission came forward and they quit saying this is a fraud being committed on the American voters because it allows these two parties

10:02 to set a standard for admission that silences political opposition. We have the right to know who our choices are, there are four candidates who will be on the ballot, that is four candidates for president." Now see this is also a little weird because there's many more than 4 candidates isn't Vernon Supreme a candidate? Is he not on the ballot Well, there's a lot of guys that have declared for the presidency but they never went... They don't have the organization. You have to get like five on the petition every single state who will be on the ballot for just about every voter in the country that has the numerical possibility to actually win the election that represents a much greater diversity of choices than just

10:49 Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, where one of them is a member of the billionaire club but the other one has actually been quite an ally and advocate for the billionaire club. So the American people deserve to hear from people who are not part of that economic elite and the political system that serves it. So I want to encourage people to go to Jill2016.com and sign up on our campaign, to open up the debates and hold onto your hat and stay tuned because i don't think the American people are going to take this sitting down there is too much at stake we need real

11:31 Yeah, dream on. She's a little miss... Dream on about that! I mean she means well but no the American citizenry doesn't really doesn't know about this and they won't it's not in anyone's... And they don't care are they gonna vote for Trump or Clinton one of the two? I was wondering if you good story to write which is Jill Stein wins or Johnson wins so they win okay now what Should I go to Washington and can i get in the White House? Hello, I'm the new president. Never heard of you. Go away or we'll arrest ya! You can't get into the White House they never give me the keys. What are you talking about?! No, once you win how do you get from there to actually taking over

12:18 It's like buying a Boeing jet. There is like, a process What if they decide that not going to give you the keys? I'm sure... Find your own way to Pennsylvania Avenue If Jill Stein were to win there would be a lot of volunteers popping up to help her Oh! I know how to do this come on let me in The Department Of Homeland Security Is Inactive conversations with states about, and you know this is a now it's gonna get bad about quote shoring up cyber in their voting systems. And they have some great advice! I thought things were fine why are they doing this? Oh no no no no no J Johnson there's a couple of memos back and forth and of course we had the DNC systems hacked and state officials

13:18 Let me see what we have here. The states feel for most part they're in good shape, cyber security wise as most have made sure their systems are self-contained and not internet facing said one representative who agreed to speak on background Um... Internet's not the only problem with electronic balloting. No, but this is what the State Department put out in an official memo said uh it is best not to have your voting machines linked to the internet while voting is in progress Yeah, no shit Sherlock I'm still stunned by the absolute solid numbers that you get when people say, well we should all vote with the internet. We should just stay at home and vote on our computers. Can you imagine? We didn't talk about it but you saw what happened to the census in Australia did a big census and was the first one online got hacked immediately

14:09 Yeah, this is what Theodore Wunderson... We've raised during this depression of this downturn which actually began in 2000 and then it was restructured to be more classic in 2008 which now is. Because there's so much time on people's hands we've bred an entire generation over 20 years of unbelievably talented hackers. There are also a lot of talented IT guys and smart guys that do all kinds... Oh, and what's the difference between IT guys and hackers? Is it the same thing? Well I'm thinking about hackers being not really having enough time- having more time on his hands than a guy actually works for our company. I mean yeah anyone could go do a little hacking on this side

14:55 But we've got it. This is over to be the whole computer thing is done doesn't end well from here on out It's already not ending well I got a clip of the sorrows and but this stuff that's not being reported So when so couple things about the Soros hack The website for this Soros hack is shit. It has, it almost looks like a conspiracy theory website really poorly done and you know then they do have it all night. It's real... This is a real computer guy who put this together You can see how the subdirectories are lined up. And you know, I couldn't... there's not really like a smoking gun if you just look at the whole thing and say holy shit this guy is in everywhere doing everything and he could twist knobs and make stuff happen in any country but there's not really one smoking gun where someone is like yeah! I got 10 million I'm gonna go fuck the Russians it was just not in there. No

15:52 It's just, the guy is just a machine. He's got all this money out there and says let's try to do this or that but it's like he is an evil looking character who seems to be up to no good That's the way I see it Now the funny thing was... This is the report on RT, this is kind of a backgrounder What's the name of this clip? Hackers Soros in Russia And RT has a bone to pick and their thing is that Soros is out to screw them because he hates the Russians And he's all for, you know, he's all for one world government. No borders borderless society is just multicultural society everyone just be brown as long as he keeps making money and he's good with that who cares? There was one thing that it's annoying and I'm going to if anybody we do have Russia Today producers that listen to our show. That don't think they listened all the time but i've been bitching about this for a while when they put stuff up on the screen

16:48 Not all the producers, but most of the producers don't do voiceovers. They just put a bunch of details on the screen Nobody reads it which makes it impossible to get good clips And what I'm going to say here is what i noticed with it because they said, here's this stuff that Soros was involved in and then they list the you know the Kosovo situation and one after another. And they attract money too but it always with...I'd say 90% of them went there were involved in this election and then it said Soros AND USAID And it was almost every one of these things that Soros is up to involves USAID. And I'm wondering whether USAID's involved with Black Lives Matter? Well, yeah sure indirectly, I'm sure. A lot of his Open Society Institute NGOs receive money from USAID

17:44 And so, you know indirectly with... Actually it was a different... The house that what's the guys name one of the co-founders was living in belongs to an NGO funded by Soros. Yeah So yeah yes the answer is yes Well it's disgusting! So let's play what Russia has to say about this Hackers have leaked over 2 000 documents linked to billionaire George Soros and his grant making organization called Open Society Foundation The papers expose the group's ongoing attempts to influence political processes in Europe and Russia, and elsewhere. RT's Gayane Chichikian takes a closer look. Leaked documents from George Soros' Open Society foundations show persistent efforts by the organization to influence the political process in Europe – to reach out to European voters.

18:36 The organization has funded local advocacy groups, social media projects and journalists. Here's an example over $130,000 went to a project by a group called EU Observer This project uses professional news reporting to foster debate on how open society values are under stress in the run-up to the European election Is that publication? I think it is a website as well isn't it? No thats a different one EU Observer recruited experienced local journalists to visit campaign events, conduct interviews and solicit high-level op eds in 16 countries. While the source organization has been doing all this hard work trying to influence politics in Europe

19:19 A leaked document shows the organization's half a million dollar effort to find evidence of Russia's alleged influence in Europe's political life. The proposal reads, quote, I think that the European public is underreacting. I love Dwey-Duggs! I think it is EU observer John Well, the one you're thinking of is EU News? No. EUobserver dot com. That's... that is... Yes definitely his. The European public is underreacting and that's why I'm trying to explain to them the real danger that Russia represents. From the leaked document we also see that the source team... Stavro Blofeld What's that?!

20:13 Stavlo Blofeld, he sounds like a James Bond. That's a great name isn't it? Naming and shaming from us is problematic. We also are in the business of channeling money into other countries for political purposes When he says democracy, he means Sorosocracy He doesn't mean what we might otherwise think of democracy. He wants to wreck Europe That's why he's for all these open borders and these vast numbers people coming in. Over the years George Soros has been accused of meddling in internal politics of a number of countries We're trying to make the world a better place

21:02 But that's not necessarily what we accomplish. George Soros is known to have exclusive access to top U.S. policymakers. Hillary Clinton's emails show when she was Secretary of State in 2011, she received an email from George Soros with his recommendations on how to address a political crisis in Albania. A week later the person Soros recommended to be sent as a mediator from the EU was in Albania meeting with politicians there George Soros is now one of the top donors to Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign and his influence appears to be stretching much further than European politics. In Washington, I'm Ganesh Chakyan. Yeah i'm looking at it right here...I see three donations in 2016 alone to the EU observer from The Open Society Institute. Uh..i didn't know that!

21:56 I looked at the bets he made for the Brexit and he went long on some gold stocks, physical gold. He might have gone short on the pound again, I'm not sure Well, that was a good bet the pound went down. Yeah now and Jobs have gone up though they don't know what to do about that Is there still stalling on joining? And so now the employment is improved a lot since then they did devote I Have a number of packages for today's show and since you brought up You know the foundation stuff Do you want I did the package of Charles or tell oh

22:45 Oh, you're my buddy. Yeah? You want to do that now or do you want to wait? Let's go for it Okay and now Charles Ortell you can find him at charlesortell.com He is an M&A analyst specialist And he stumbled across the Clinton Foundation and he started looking into it. He is so outrented, he's not at all...He knows a lot about charitable foundations and then he knows a lot about the legality and that really is part of his profession certainly when it comes to M&A of multiple 501c3 corps So he really know what he was talking about and he became outraged as you started looking into

23:21 Clinton Foundation and its many associated foundations. And he has started writing about it, talking about it of course he can barely get on mainstream. He gets on NPR... what is it? News Hour but when he's been on that he'd really been going to be spent on Democracy Now! He gets around a lot on alternative podcasts now because that's the way to go and his mission is to start investigations in individual states And the reason for that is a president cannot pardon a crime committed in a state or international crimes, obviously. Then he already has Ohio investigating the Clinton Foundation and a couple more because you know I don't think i put this in this clip but on the series of clips what he hates the most is you know he says look 80 percent

24:14 The lower 80% of the people in America give money to foundations for good causes. When we have a Haiti disaster, it's really the poorest people who don't think twice grab a couple bucks out of their pocketbook or text it or whatever because they just want to help people But, you know he says that all these people like the Clintons they're like Robin Hood and Verrush. They take the money and give it to their rich buddy so that's really why he's doing this. And he was on two programs... Yeah, and you know it stuns me how long it took somebody I mean it's not that everyone is not bitching about this but for a superstar. He actually explains this yeah he actually explains this and why you know why no one has really done this investigating

24:55 So this is a mixture of two different shows that I caught him on both on Skype. So there are some hiccups here and there, um, the one I liked the most is, uh... When he's on, uh... was it Stefan Molinjo? Yeah that guy. He puts his head in front of a cam I'm not a big fan of his show but- I'm not a big fan of his production yeah maybe thats it and you know then these questions are okay but he did have him on and does follow value for value model so appreciate that people should definitely support stuff like that also when I look at them I feel uncomfortable because

25:34 I know that I too sometimes am talking completely out of my ass and thinking I'm really right about something, and just cringe when I see him do it. God that's what I must be like because it does happen of course! Hence the audio. Yeah, exactly. Okay here is the basis... The basic problem of the Clinton Foundation which Tina the Keeper was still outraged over since she's in the nonprofit sector is that it has never ever been properly registered you have a non-profit you have to register exactly what you're gonna do with that nonprofit well when you look at any foundation, the Clinton Foundation in particular and you have to check and see what its authorized tax exempt purposes are

26:16 and because the entity raises money from the public continuously as we're having this interview, they are raising money. They have to actually be very specific and their authorized tax exempt purposes stated in their application which is dated on the 23rd of December 1997 were were just to be a presidential archival facility in Little Rock and related research facilities. They never have been authorized, as far as I can tell from the public filings that need to out there so everyone can look at them they've never been authorized do such things as fight HIV AIDS, fight climate change convene meetings in New York

26:56 set up these various initiatives. None of them has actually been validly authorized, which means that they have been raising money on the basis of false and materially misleading public filings and they've been doing it using the mail using the internet using telephones all of which is a federal crime. There you go! So, not properly registered you get a problem. And you recall the IRS did go after a number of non-profits all them were small religious right wing groups but still went after him as a Democrat I think we played a clip a couple weeks ago Democratic Congresswoman in Texas

27:39 And she had a slush fund, you know $800 000 slush fund and you know she's going to jail. She's in a 23 count indictment so she's in trouble but no not the Clintons but why is it important that the registration be factual and correct? And why does this matter? The reason it matters is the IRS generally was very suspicious about charities because they're perfect vehicles for fraud if they're not controlled properly, if the trustees aren't independent. If they don't have real audits... If they don't make truthful filings concerning what they intend to do and what they have done then while the money that comes towards a charity can simply be put in people's pockets and no one will ever know the difference

28:22 Yeah. Exactly! So why doesn't the FBI or the IRS or somebody crack down on this? Well, it's kind of what we suspected the problem was. With so many red flags why isn't the IRS auditing The Clinton Foundation? I think part of the reason is that unfortunately members of the Republican Party are involved in this not necessarily in the same way but they Bush family Mike Huckabee others are tied to these various entities so it's a bipartisan problem and it's so embarrassing. I mean when you look at this, when you think back to what happened- What is alleged to have happened starting in March of 2010 When the Justice Department and the IRS may have aggressively gone against conservative Tea Party charities And people who were trying to become charities that had conservative leanings When you look at the way they were

29:12 prosecuted and persecuted, and you contrast it with the ways in which these Clinton Foundation entities have been allowed to operate without being punished. It's impossible to argue that of recent years that the scales of justice have been evenly balanced as concerns right-leaning or left-leaning people And, you know when you open up this can of worms what your opening is a domestic political scandal. But in addition one major scandal that is global on scale is that global governments have given a lot money to the Clinton Foundation and their records do not square with the Clinton Foundation filings concerning how much money they Clinton Foundation believes it's received

29:54 And so in short, these governments have sent far more money towards the Clinton Foundation than it appears show up in the Clinton Foundation books. Hmmmm! That's how you do it apparently? Yeah that is a form of money laundering No it is not a form but the definition of money laundering Now I've two longer clips, final 2 And these are the ones actually from Moulin Rouge! show, so better audio. Long yes but I think very important just to understand because he doesn't give you any extraneous information it's really the information need to understand and the main one for me of course is Haiti and when Haiti took place but right off the bat the strangest thing that i thought

30:38 was the shallowness of the earthquake. And it, you know... and it was only Haiti that pretty much stopped at the border You know they'd only messed up Haiti and I've always suspected earthquake machines sometimes are used. I know I'm taking a bit to the crackpot level here but when you hear this and you hear that The Clintons had a Haiti foundation set up in late 2009 just before the 2010 earthquake. I mean, you know... You've just got to say! Incidents? I think not!! So here is the full lowdown on Haiti. You remember when we had three presidents asking for water or blankets We just need cash. I know a lot of people want to send blankets or water Just send your cash At that time

31:32 Clinton-Bush Haiti Foundation was not even set up, so they were just receiving this money into their own individual foundations and then were supposed to send it later to the Clinton Bush Haiti foundation. Here you go. In 2009 the Clinton Foundation Bill Clinton was appointed special UN envoy to Haiti there had been problems in Haiti Bill and Hillary have longstanding ties to Haiti and in addition, the Clinton Foundation created illegally a new charity in Florida called the William J. Clinton Foundation Corporation now they didn't create that as a subsidiary of the Clinton foundation they created a new domestic florida corporation for some unexplained reason around June 1st 2009 and then they set about trying to do business in Haiti on January 12th 2010 there was a horrific earthquake it's estimated that 500 000 people lost their lives

32:24 people open their hearts chief among them president obama and his wife were kind enough to arrange for two hundred thousand dollars out of his nobel peace prize winnings to be sent to the nascent clinton bush eighty that is before it received its iris authorization and this fund was it was really kinda complicated uh... claimed that he had the right to solicit for it before the earthquake and during the earthquake, before the actual new fund was set up. He did not have that right but nonetheless did it and has never properly accounted for what happened with the money that came in through The Clinton Foundation Then in 2011 when they filed their return for 2010, the biggest expenditure of the parent Clinton foundation was $37.2 million to

33:25 for sending $37.2 million in theory to a post office box and I ask you how do you do that? Did they send it check to the post office box?" Just send the check over, it's fine. So I got a PO Box in Maryland. And if they did that's bright line mail fraud right there. In 2015 last year I warned publicly many times the clinton foundation that it was going to have to refile its existing tax returns they protested and said they didn't have to then on the sixteenth of november two thousand fifteen they said they had a corrective problem there badly wrong because they refile among other things in two thousand ten form without correcting this uh... thirty seven point two million now without correcting their claim but they send roughly four million in non-cash items

34:09 down to Haiti. Well, the Clinton Bush Haiti fund has its own report and that report says that it got 1 million in change in non-cash items so why the difference? That's the small beer part of it The big beer... You really think they took a whole bunch of like diapers and stuff three million in kind. You gotta love it though. Is that this estimate, the 14 billion in total went from around the world to Haiti? You send $14 billion of aid into an economy that only has 10 billion in total income. That should have an impact. The Haitians are riding on the street I've been contacted by some of these Haitians and I've done various interviews about it you know its one thing to be a greedy capitalist but I understand that It's another thing to be Robin Hood in reverse

34:55 to steal from the poor to give to your rich cronies. Haiti's gold has literally been stolen by a new company that Hillary Clinton's brother is a trustee of that company, Hillary Clinton's brother doesn't know I suppose he could tell gold from silver like anybody else but he has no expertise in mining why did the Haitian government give it uh you know privileged contract some startup company to extract the gold from Haiti at the same time as people are wallowing in the streets Yeah, no there you go. So I think that explains it very well shenanigans. I tell you The level of corruption is outrageous. And everybody's involved! Mike Huckabee? That is the outrageous part of it, that's why no one can do anything. If Huckabee's involved which makes it real then its pathetic. Who wants him in your club regardless?! I mean besides the point he's a holier than thou Baptist preacher...I mean come on! Exactly so the final one and I tease this

35:51 a roll-up organization, which Ortel calls a Ponzi scheme called Laureate. And we talked about it briefly... Laureate... Man 1 Yeah, we haven't discussed it. Adam Yeah. It's a holding company of universities that were really failing and this has been going on for a long time and they just keep raising money and then with that money keeping this stuff afloat. Well he explains the whole business model and how the Clintons tie into it very interesting if you take into account the amount of noise being made about Trump University. Laureate is a company that's trying to go public right now, it used to be public and it's really for those of us who are involved in leveraged buyouts as I was and in finance, it's another casebook study so what happened was uh... young bunch of promoters who their story which doesn't ring true to me

36:43 many of the people involved with this thing turned down prestigious universities back in the 1980s, I think it was to instead get involved in various ventures and ultimately found themselves in control of something called Sylvan Learning Systems. Do you remember that? The Sylvan learning systems? Yes, I do. Yeah. And That was kind of a weird operation. I always thought it was sketchy, yeah. Yeah, by the way this make sure that Horowitz hears this segment because there's a lot of financial stuff in here that's kinda fun. Well also want to uh... There is a friend of mine who used to be involved in in buying and selling universities, private ones. I bet you he knows something about this. I'm gonna have to contact him. Yeah yeah definitely. This Ortel guy it's fantastic what he is doing. And I should mention something about Trump University and some of this other stuff they're always condemning Trump for. I am not here to defend Trump

37:35 But all he was doing with his ties and his suits and all that stuff, he's got nothing to do with this stuff. He's not like Carl Icahn who buys GWA and then starts meddling in the company. He's just licensing his name from all I can tell. Yeah. No, you just gets his tit in the ring because he's licensing his name to just about every jerk off that comes along who wants him to pay. Exactly. That may not be defensible, but it's what he's doing. It was not defensible at all. Not defensible? It's shit business! I wouldn't want to be in that business although i am going to do reverse mortgages screw them i'm taking your house something called sylvan learning systems which was a place you'd send your kids to if they're having trouble on standardized tests that entity chat room just said sylvan learning systems is located in baltimore i wonder if they have a po box uh on standardized tests

38:29 That entity migrated after it went public into buying university campuses, I think the first one was in Spain that weren't cutting it in the given country where they were operating. Back by the time this thing was taken private in August of 2007, Laureate I think was the largest chain of for-profit university systems in the world. And it wasn't... It's not and I think its biggest locus of operations is down in South America but they're all over the place. I think Laureate is a gigantic Ponzi scheme What it is, is if they manage to convince people to lend them money or give you know provide

39:09 financing to acquire these derelict campuses. And they've been growing and growing and growing, always getting more and more debt behind them. They took this thing private in August 2007 when the world was crazy. It was just past the point where you know bubble had blown up And they managed, hats off in a way to these promoters. They managed to play off Henry Kravis and Stevie Cohen and Goldman Sachs and Citibank Private Equity, a lot of very sharp people. They convinced them to do this deal at a fantastic entry valuation. Now let's just talk about that for second I don't think everyone understands the process of a leveraged buyout. Okay

39:50 That's your cue. Oh, I'm yeah well leverage buyout is where you for here's an example of this kind of leveraged bias that go on i got a lecture from the one-time ceo of uh Barnes and Noble in his office when I was pitching him something and he says wait a vinegar book no typical type of thing though The Vinegar book is on its way. He's actually all in on it, I never delivered of course...I've got to get off that track. Great idea! We'll get it in stores by Thursday. Yeah, yeah, I'll talk to you later

40:31 Good pitch, good work everybody. Good meeting you. This is one version leverage buyouts are where you buy the company and then use the company's assets to leverage the purchase that's in a nutshell but one of the things he was bitching about which is the way the publishing industry was doing it like Pearson for example they bought everybody this ruined the computer book business because Pearson bought all the computer book publishers they bought Macmillan they bought Peach Pitt they bought everybody Q and everybody in between, and made one giant corporation with all these little publishers. And didn't VNU buy all of that later? I don't know maybe...I don't know what the relationship between Pearson is. I think Pearson's still independent or they were bought by Pearson. Pearson is monstrous but what the deal was was these companies you'd buy a small publisher

41:22 And then to pay for the purchase of the publisher, you jack up the prices of the books. Yeah! It was that easy and just sell off the pension fund. You steal the pension fund well you can do that because it's a new company right but So, and he was bitching about it because Barnes & Noble was really into low prices. Because people don't want... I think they stem from the days of the 25 cent paperback. Paperbacks are now like $5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 dollars! And we're talking about the real paperbacks, little bitty ones not trade paperbacks as they're known

41:58 And so every publisher would come along and they'd buy this guy, that guy, that guy. They just jack up everything two bucks and within two quarters they had just paid for the purchase of the publisher. That's a form of leverage buyout. In other words you use the assets of the company, you reprice things, you gouge, you do anything you can... Although you end up keeping the debt and pocketing the money, it's beside the point that books look good. And usually the insiders make a ton of money on this? Oh yeah! That was business. There is great movie to watch if you haven't seen it I think its on HBO called Barbarians at The Gate. It's classic story. That actually goes back to the Nabisco RGR Reynolds. Yeah. And that was at time the biggest deal ever done

42:43 ever, and it was by today's standards is laughable. Yeah very laughable but the story discusses how they kind of jiggered with the books and fooled around right? And there are people that are specialists in leverage buyouts and they just what they do when they see an opportunity in other words you so what should do as you see the book publishing company to say You know in today's market these books are underpriced What happens with one of the numbers look like on the spreadsheet if we jack the prices up by three bucks a book And then somebody runs the numbers, because you can do that in a spreadsheet. And they often split it up and remove entire divisions. Somebody says okay that means this company is actually worth this if we do that so we can buy it at this lower price and then we can use the difference as leverage to make this buyout work. Yeah! It's just... The whole country is being scammed like this. So the point here is that.. The way it works is your public and people want to take it private which is pretty much making an offer for the shares

43:41 And they outbid apparently Kravitz, you know the KKR and Goldman Sachs all those guys with a huge valuation. Which, you know is means that there's lots of friends on the inside doing stuff for people who are Helping prop up this valuation. That's that's okay So we've explained that and a fantastic entry well enough evaluation is crazy high price and right after it closed in August of 2007 when no one was really in control of it the world blew up. And they struggled with this thing, but they had all this wealth, you know powerful people behind it who didn't want it to fail by 2010 they convinced Bill Clinton to be Chancellor of Laurier at the highest pay guy part-time work The fact suggests that this that Clinton and a by extension his wife with whom he's still married made an average of 3.3 million from 2010 2015 for part time work

44:37 That's a lot of money to make for full-time work, let alone part time work. And what were they doing? What was Laurier doing? It was convincing people who for whatever reason couldn't get into the great state sponsored or private schools around the world to basically take out subprime financing to participate in these various degree programs. How evil is that?! He set something up and you give people subprime financing to get into your... That's the leverage. Yeah, of course that's the leverage and getting them into your crappy schools but the fallout is I mean these are these aren't people looking to make a quick buck in real estate. These are people who were going to college and having trouble getting into the school they wanted to

45:18 And here you go, we'll let you in as long as you take our financing. Isn't that exactly... I'd like to see a list of these schools because I'll bet every one of them is second rate." Oh and that's what he said! He said they were all failing campuses. Yeah exactly. To participate in these various degree programs where there's scant evidence that you'll be better off for borrowing money to do all this work so they were preying on vulnerable people around the world And the capital in this deal needed to get out. I mean, typically when capital does this type of stuff you want to get out after two and a half three and a half years by 2012 that capital hadn't been able to get out so they tried to go public and they failed So in January 2013 somehow the International Finance Corporation part of the World Bank agreed to invest 100 million in Laurier

46:06 to have a fund that it controlled put 50 million in Laureate, and to have the Korean Investment Corporation put another $50 million. It's nice to have friends isn't it? Damn! Well thats where Clinton comes in handy Exactly And as I guess that investment helped the capital reassured the ultimate providers of capital through their funds That everything was fine with Laureate But if you look at the filing, they're trying to go public now. They filed in October of 2015 to try and go public and restructure their debt. You look at the course of this thing, the performance is a disaster! The revenues have grown but the profits have turned into massive losses, massive cash flow losses

46:44 this thing has over four billion of stated that it has net worth remaining at work less than four hundred million which is a prohibitively high ratio it's got debt in the u s it's got assets operations and countries that are you know i'm internal like brazil elsewhere and yes he seen a lot of people when i brought this thing up last year would say well who's been investigated yes he sees already looking at this as they do with any public offering so the fcc has a file but on this State regulators have a file open on this, governments have files opened on this. And the biggest warning sign for somebody like me who's looked at this in the past you look at the risk factor section for this offering and there is an entry that says this company has a material weakness in its internal financial controls that it serious and will not be fixed until 2017 at the earliest. Now I will say I've seen lots of warning

47:36 Even Google had some pretty interesting warnings in their S-1 filing document. But to say that you don't have...that you have a problem with internal financial controls, yeah I'd say that's...that's... No, no, those filings are always...have a lot of bad pop... A lot of bad news in it, yeah. Because you have to put the possibilities into there or you're not gonna make it and so they always have a lot of negative stuff and coming has real negative stuff is different. Here's the colleges we have in North America, Kendall The New School of Architecture and Design, or the new school is the name of that. And the new school is... Is it? Is the Connecticut School of Broadcasting on a list? No I think they folded. Santa Fe University of Art and Design, University of St Augustine for Health Sciences, and Walden University. So if any of you out there listening to this show are going into these schools- Let us know! Let us know what you think. A minute left. ...and that will not be fixed until 2017 at the earliest

48:34 That's a huge red flag. I mean, the guys running this thing have been in it since 1999 Why today should it have a material weakness on something this complicated? This international with this much debt There is no excuse for that And why are the Koreans trying to sell out They just bought it in 2013 It reeks! And again, this is based in Baltimore A related topic is that the same law firm that is representing the company, is a law firm that supposedly was independently involved clearing the Clinton Foundation filings back in November 2015. Kathy Keneally, who used to work in the Obama Justice Department joined this firm DLA Piper. That's the Laureate Council and she made a big deal of saying we hired a firm that had no connection with the Clinton Foundation? That's not true! It had a connection through Laureate. So this is another textbook case in how NOT to do a buyout and how NOT to report for charity We just need cash I know alot of people want us to send blankets or water

49:37 Just send your cash. There you go, and thanks to our brethren in arms for getting Nortel on with an interview that's really good Yeah It's a mess it's but you know really this guy has got the goods on these guys And I think somebody pick up the ball now But because of the full-on corruption how many people are involved is no one wants to do that? It's a lot like the Gulen charter schools You know everyone's on junkets the turkey rocked that boat we'd like getting our rugs once a year But to show you just how horrible the media really is, and remember this is a media deconstruction. CNN did a report about Milwaukee and then we'll probably play the Trump-Milwaukee clip that I have... And they brought in a little short clip of the sister of the

50:28 The guy who was killed and of course the cops say he had a gun. Oh yeah, this is a classic everybody's on on this one isn't good? Yeah so this is what CNN reported uh what his sister said. That she hurt! I'm sorry this one here. His family and friends holding a vigil marked by prayers. Thy kingdom come thy will be done with his sister calling for peace don't bring the violence here in the ignorance Milwaukee police say they made multiple arrests overnight. We're still waiting on... Okay, so what you heard his sister there say was don't bring the violence here Don't do this now what she actually said and I'm not in agreement with a lot of the websites out there that are That they also did to disservice I think to this young lady because what she's saying I'll give her ten points for hey Let's not burn up our own stuff

49:37 Just send your cash. There you go, and thanks to our brethren in arms for getting Nortel on with an interview that's really good Yeah It's a mess it's but you know really this guy has got the goods on these guys And I think somebody pick up the ball now But because of the full-on corruption how many people are involved is no one wants to do that? It's a lot like the Gulen charter schools You know everyone's on junkets the turkey rocked that boat we'd like getting our rugs once a year But to show you just how horrible the media really is, and remember this is a media deconstruction. CNN did a report about Milwaukee and then we'll probably play the Trump-Milwaukee clip that I have... And they brought in a little short clip of the sister of the

50:28 The guy who was killed and of course the cops say he had a gun. Oh yeah, this is a classic everybody's on on this one isn't good? Yeah so this is what CNN reported uh what his sister said. That she hurt! I'm sorry this one here. His family and friends holding a vigil marked by prayers. Thy kingdom come thy will be done with his sister calling for peace don't bring the violence here in the ignorance Milwaukee police say they made multiple arrests overnight. We're still waiting on... Okay, so what you heard his sister there say was don't bring the violence here Don't do this now what she actually said and I'm not in agreement with a lot of the websites out there that are That they also did to disservice I think to this young lady because what she's saying I'll give her ten points for hey Let's not burn up our own stuff

51:21 And it's actually funny, she says our weave shops which is cool. But I give her you know minus 10 points for saying you know take it to the suburbs here you can listen to the whole piece of audio which I think is important to listen to It does show a grievance that uh I'm aware of as a non-poor person not as poor as she is clearly I do not live in a ghetto although I do have water in my apartment So it and she's talking to the police so that the press is there but the police are standing right there and they're starting to put in you know, they're expecting some problems. And getting ready to putting on their helmets

52:03 What do you call it? Not their riot gear. They have a different anti-hurt gear, anti hurt me gear. That shit hurts! And y'all burning down gas stations. Fuck that gas station! Put some money on his books and funeral. Tell his mama y'all sorry for her loss. Burning down shit ain't gonna help nothing. Y'all burning down shit we need in our community. Take that shit to the suburbs. Burn that shit down We need our shit. Y'all wanna hurt somebody, take that shit farther out! Don't bring it here. We need everything we fucking got. Everything! The police look like they was our enemy all day yesterday. Hell yeah I got some feelings about that, hell yeah imma snap out. Y'all putting on helmets? What the fuck a helmet gonna do? I lost my brother. My brother ain't have on a helmet He aint have no motherfucking body suit to save his life. You're looking at us like we the enemies Like were the problem

53:05 We're not the problem. If anything, we the fucking solution! Y'all need to ask us what WE need in our community? Y'all trying to tell us what we doing and how savage, and how we look like. We niggas? We niggas to y'all! We not niggas to us! We surviving to us! We're survivors at the end of the day, we surviving! Y'all don't know what the fuck we be through every day with each other. With y'all we arguing and fighting with everybody peace of mind. Y'all don't understand that shit! Y'all think like, oh they in the city we should treat them how they look like they acting y'all don't know why we acting like that come down here and talk to us and you're just looking I ain't hear not one cop yesterday say i'm sorry for your loss not one of these motherfucking bastards said i'm sorry for your loss they saying they can't talk but they talking amongst each other

54:02 You know how bad that shit hurt. I think we're gonna get reckless out here, it's gonna get way worse until we get justice and some motherfuckers start feeling where are coming from is going to hit everywhere and i'm not saying i'm glad about or appreciate it or even grateful that motherfucker gone crazy because im not y'all ain't even got answers to give us if you want us sit here be quiet get welfare checks and get SSI nah fuck them buildings I hope them motherfuckers burn down tonight I feel that the mainstream should be playing this. They can bleep out all the F words, but that sounded pretty genuine and I understand the anger

54:50 Yeah. And she's saying, hey you got to fix this come here talk to us! You know? So it was a double whammy where the mainstream said oh she just asking for peace and prayer and love and light... ...and then the alternative media which turned her into some hateful woman- Oh yeah I hate whitey. Yeah because they'd go burn down the suburbs I don't think it's either. This is a real problem and the problem is, thank goodness getting out on mainstream news more and more that this is the policies that have ruined schools... Actually Donald Trump when he was in Wisconsin-I saw the whole speech It was pretty cool because it was supposed to happen at 9 Eastern

55:38 because he had switched from a rally to, as his campaign had said, a teleprompter speech. Everyone in the news was like oh okay this is going to be... what's he gonna do? Oh! He's in Wisconsin. So they all were waiting and he let them wait until 10pm and ten is the magic hour because that's when the local news kicks in and the networks don't have time And, you know, Rachel Maddow was so mad. You know this is crazy! Don't they know that we're waiting? Like yeah he's probably in his plane watching MSNBC seeing you get mad and like no not yet...not yet..not yet oh there's steam coming out of her ears yeah let's go now it was it was that's the way I see at least I thought that was very funny

56:27 It's kind of ironic too because Hillary has left people waiting for I think one time three hours People was just sitting there waiting for three hours for her to show up to give a speech But I don't think it goes through some various reasons. I think it's because she you know, oh, I'm convinced and they're meeting making him wait I'm convinced of it could mean that wouldn't surprise me. So pulled one way. No, sorry Okay will go on finish this up. I pull one clip where he creates a new term which I like Something that we've used this in. Trump? Yeah, Trump yeah Trump This is Wisconsin speech He's talking about the insiders I thought a lot of this speech really hit the mark It was very much oriented towards as he says African-Americans I want your vote the Democrats have screwed you He said that over and over again nice to hear all the white people cheering for that And here he is on the insiders When we talk about the insider who are we talking about

57:22 It's the comfortable politicians looking out for their own interests. It is the lobbyists who know how to insert that perfect loophole into every single bill and get richer, and richer, and richer at your expense. It is the financial industry that knows how to regulate their competition right out of existence so there is no competition The insiders also include the media executives, anchors and journalists in Washington, Los Angeles and New York City who are of the same failed status quo. And want nothing to change they don't want it to change they like it just fine the way

58:12 Carlin here, I think. George Carlin. A little bit yeah Most people like the status quo if they're comfortable Yeah You like it just fine the way it is now Every day you pick up a newspaper or turn on the nightly news and you hear about some self-interest banker Or some self discredited Washington insider Self discredited? Do you discredit yourself often? I try to stay away from doing that. Wasn't quite sure what he meant by it. I don't know what he meant by that, but probably referring to one specific person Well he was off script a lot because i got the transcript as delivered to the press which I presume was in the teleprompter But he went off script quite a bit, I'd say every two lines he was inserting stuff. Banker or some self-discredited Washington insider

59:02 say they oppose Donald Trump's campaign or some encrusted old politician says they oppose- And this is interesting when he's reading, he doesn't say says. He says says It really is odd Yeah You know like how we say measure? Which I just love saying that I never say measure I do you started me on it How do you say it? How do you say it? Measure That's exactly what I said! Measure Most people supposed to be most people say measure Measure yeah, but we say major and I think that's probably Chicago And he doesn't say says just says an old politician Says they oppose our campaign or some big-time lobbyists says That's weird man. Wow that's a good catch you're on a roll today Yeah i'm sorry for some big time lobbies says they opposed the campaign of trump eyewear

1:00:03 their opposition as a badge of honor. Because it means I'm fighting, all of us across the country are fighting for peaceful regime change in our own country. I thought that was one of the better quotes. That's really good. Peaceful regime change in our own country? I like that one. For peaceful regime change in our own country And he didn't say in this country He said in our OWN COUNTRY A double whammy! ...regime change in our own country The media donor political complex that's bled this country dry has to be replaced with a new government of, by and for the people. I like that! The media donor political complex. A twist on the classic It is a twist on the classic. You gotta love it Well they had a couple things come out like... They had

1:01:10 I guess the CEO chairman or the chairman of NBC came out and blasted him. Well, he did that on a private Facebook post. Yeah, you know somebody leaked it? Of course! Which is just like perfect because we know MSNBC's in the bag for Hillary and so that just proves... It comes from the top and it always comes from the top and people should realize that Do you have a clip of what he said? Because I don't have one because it was on Facebook Oh but I have here Um, yes. Well this is how AP reports it my favorite word the chairman of NBC Entertainment slammed Donald Trump

1:01:47 the network's one-time Apprentice star as toxic and demented in a private Facebook post that became public. Robert Greenblatt's post refers to, quote, "...a sad state of affairs thanks to a pompous businessman turned reality TV star who thinks that speaking his mind is refreshing." It's actually corrosive and toxic because his mind is so demented and its effect will unfortunately linger long after he has been told to get off stage. This seems a bit hateful... Yeah, but of course you know what? You know don't post this stuff on face bag people. The guy's an idiot and he just doesn't get sad I mean yeah me anyway can make a small mistake and put something up there so look what he said right? I've done it myself So the thing that they've done is to is to try to shake up the I don't know what they're worried about I mean everybody says this guy's is losing by 10 points everywhere. So so what is the problem? Yeah

1:02:46 But there seems to be a problem. So they railroaded Paul Manafort into having to resign... Well, that's the story! I'm not so sure that's what happened behind the scenes. That's the way it has been interpreted and played but maybe they just got some new dudes in? Kind of well, but Manafort's been demoted or his title has been changed. No no it's the exact same change But there's now a CEO which he's the chairman and so you'd expect... Okay there is the CEO and then as head of campaign Which is curiously Kellyanne Conway Yeah that's the chick from isn't she on CNN all the time? As The Republican Pundit She's the one I keep talking about they put her on as a straw man yeah And then guys like Don Lemon just berate her

1:03:32 humiliate her as best they can. She did come on and kind of said something like that on the news hour, but there was one thing... There was a meme that came out Woodruff has it and its the Woodruff... she asked Kellyanne about this particular meme do I have here? It should say Woodruff somewhere. I don't have all my clips in the right place. National question? Nationist question. I just want to squeeze in one last question and that is the description of the philosophy of this campaign as nationalist, almost isolationist is that something you accept

1:04:15 No, I—in fact, I emphatically reject it. And as I said, Judy, just hours ago, I sat in a roundtable with former and current congressmen, with generals, with elected officials at very high levels, with national security and foreign policy experts. And that was not the talk around the—that was not the conversation around the table, I assure you we allowed to press in. And so, no I reject it. But i'm not surprised critics and naysayers have to do that Look the only thing I would ask of the Clinton campaign and many of their sympathizers is when you're asked a question about Hillary Clinton try not to say Donald Trump every other word

1:04:52 Now, she did mention that Manafort was at that meeting and so nothing appeared to her to be changed either. But they have been doing a job on Manafort and that's including... I saw them report on RT And then they did a hit piece on him, one of those and we've talked about this before on the show. This is the kind of hit piece where you make all these accusations and then to get confirmation you ask somebody and they either answer a completely different question or they answer in the opposite direction but you keep the intensity up as though you are busting this guy's chops

1:05:33 But there's no evidence at all. It's like it's all hollow and CBS is not the best at this I forgot when we broke this down before, I think was ABC that did one of the best jobs on this sort of reporting right? Right but this is the CBS hit piece on Manafort The Trump campaign manager who was pushed aside is Republican strategist Paul Manafort and like many consultants, Manafort hired out to campaigns in other countries. One of his clients was the pro-Russian president of Ukraine who was later overthrown Now Manafort's name has come up in a mysterious ledger that suggests big payments for his talents. Charlie Dagoda is In Ukraine

1:06:19 Nazar Holodnitsky is Ukraine's new anti-corruption prosecutor. Leading the investigation into the secret handwritten ledger showing $5 billion in undisclosed cash payments that were allegedly handed out by the party of former president Viktor Yanukovych, Paul Manafort's client at the time The prosecutor confirmed that Manafort's name appears 12 times for 22 different entries totaling $12.7 million between 2007 and 2012 Are his signatures there? No

1:06:55 There is not any signature of Paul Manafort, but his name has been mentioned several times. Manafort has denied receiving... What? Did you hear that? No! They get all wound up on this and they said did.. And then finally they get to the guy who's the head of this investigation or he's the head of the Anti-Corruption Bureau. Is it was Paul Manafort's signature there? The guy says no. ...of Paul Manafort but his name is being mentioned several times His name is being mentioned?! Wait, let me go back again. That's pretty crazy! This is very suggestive! There is not any signature of Paul Manafort but his name has been mentioned several times. Wow

1:07:35 My goodness. See, you've already been hypnotized! I know, i know, it blows right over you and washes right across the denial is a denial that's crazy he washes right across because this is a designed hit piece yeah and CBS should be ashamed of itself for doing this sort of reporting...I say this every time I run into one of these hit pieces that it's not it's not a hit piece with any substance No there's no substance all suggestions allegations guy's name was mentioned Manafort has denied receiving any cash payments. Investigators say they're now tracking down each recipient who signed for the cash The ledger itself is here at the National Anti-Corruption Bureau We weren't allowed to film it because of the ongoing investigation but a source showed us a copy of one of the pages

1:08:26 On October 5th, 2012 Paul Manafort's name appears against a sum of $400,000 designated for exit polling. Another 812 thousand was marked for international observers. Backed by Russia Yanukovych was accused of corruption to fund a lavish lifestyle including a palatial mansion complete with a private zoo he was overthrown in 2014 Let's add a couple of other little elements to this. Yeah, good! Crazy rich people... The guy guilt by association at the end, a little icing on the cake How about we take a look at Madeline Albright and who she deals with? She is actually doing these dirty deals I don't believe this was true in this case and let me tell you a couple of things because of that you know We have associates that are in Ukraine

1:09:19 The way this would be done if it was a corrupt system is you put Paul Manafort, he didn't sign anything and receive anything. He's just name is so you're doing a deal You want to steal $400,000? How are you going to do that Well, I don't know. Let's put this American consultant we use him because they talk about what they used them for is a he was a Strategy consultant for politics and nothing to do with campaigning in this case So you just put his name down write it down and then put four hundred thousand dollars And then you take the $400,000 and you should give it to your buddy next door and then but on the books It looks like it went to Paul Manafort who never signed Ford or anything But this is all

1:09:59 Nonsense. I mean this whole report was an outrageous, hit piece that wasn't even called for. I don't even know what the point of it was, but let's... Well now I do well we'll hear your second clip then i'l tell you a little bit about part two which just brings it out a little bit also with the same onerous tone so you don't realize that the guy is saying this didn't happen as bullcrap Manafort helped Yanukovych win several elections and former co-worker Andrey Yermolayev defended Manafort Paul didn't run expensive technology projects, he said. He worked mostly in foreign policy so I don't understand what this is about." Paul Manafort continued to work for Yanukovych's party even after the former president fled. Investigators believe the ledger was left behind in party headquarters and Scott, the person who handed over that ledger, is now in hiding. Okay hold on a second there's more to this

1:11:01 It was left behind. How does that jive with left behind and handed over? If it was left behind, it discovered. Now how is the guy who handed it over now in hiding which is another thing to just create this atmosphere of suspicion. Yeah secrecy... But who handed it over if it's even illogical? Here's how I see it There was a meeting and then it was left on the table. The guy sees it, puts in his bag gives it I don't think so. They would have put that in there. This is a nonsense report with contradictory information filled with the cognitive dissonance, this sort of thing it was left behind but somebody turned it in. That right there those two sentences side by side are cognitive dissonance. This entire report is designed to confuse you! This guy comes out and he says I don't know why they're blaming him for anything? He just came into some policy stuff

1:12:04 He didn't do, as far as I can tell you, he didn't do anything. And that's presented in a way as though he did and there are no excuses for this. Yeah of course this is to tie Trump to Russia and Politico ran a story again with no audio Nancy Pelosi and other Democratic leaders putting out a warning that of course is meant to help Hillary for any October surprise that may be October cyber surprise Nancy Pelosi is among those sounding the alarm saying, echoing security experts who say Russian Security Services have been known to doctor documents and images or bury fictitious damaging details amid genuine information. So yeah man like you know all those emails they've been doctored

1:12:52 Well, they... I got a funny clip on that too. But before we go there can we just play this Trump-Putin mocked by Archie? This connection between Trump and Putin. While the scandal of Hillary Clinton's emails apparently worsens the public attention is largely fixed on her main rival Donald Trump's supposed ties with Russia and Vladimir Putin certainly keeping them media tongues wagging in America Donald Trump is also facing questions tonight about his relationship with Vladimir Putin. In the Clinton campaign, they really jumped out on this story pointing out what it calls troubling connections between Trump's campaign and pro-Russian elements Explain to us Russia's love affair with Trump. Trump's relationship with the Kremlin has been under scrutiny

1:13:36 It seems CNBC thinks it's found a watertight connection between the Russian leader and the Republican presidential nominee through his daughter Ivanka. Or because she posted a photo with Wendy Deng, the ex-wife of media mogul Rupert Murdoch According to the tabloid US Weekly, Wendy used to date Vladimir Putin. While another news outlet has found even more alleged proof of Trump's close ties with Russia The New York Times has pointed out that Donald Trump's campaign chairman Paul Manafort was in the pay of the previous Ukrainian government as an advisor He allegedly received millions from the ruling pro-Russian party Allegedly...allegedly

1:14:20 Yeah, unbelievable. You gotta think why are they so afraid of him? That's all you got to think Why is that the polls say they shouldn't have to worry your right now The poll says it just as good you can coast yeah, just go worries no worries well with that I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to John see where the C stands for complex of political donors and media Dvorak Well, in the morning to you Mr. Adam Curry also in the morning all the ships and sea boots on the ground feeding their subs in the water and all the dames and knights out there In the morning to Nick Leratt who brought us the artwork for episode 851 Nick is back on the stick good to see him this of course was Captain Talking Points And the artwork that Nick gave us was a little old lady her weed dispensary which was kind of cool we thought that was funny

Jeffrey Wolfers in London begins our donation segment with an executive producer donation of $500 from London, England. Hey citizens I thought it was time to true up!

1:15:57 Is that a phrase you use in England? I guess. True up? After a long period of listening but not funding, I thought the summer doldrums was a good time to make good... Not sure about it but this makes me a knight! Check your records if i'm good and make me Sir Geoffrey of Camden All my fellow Londoners will understand Give me some karma as I help propagate the formula Excellent thank-you very much Jeff You've got karma We'll be knighting you later on Stephen Hightower in Glen Ellyn, California. The home of Jack London $500 dogs just heard your plea on Sunday show versus bandwidth costs infrastructure etc and it's motivational hope it works with others agree that your proposition agrees with your proposition and have increasingly seen eye-opening info in your deconstructions don't need cred let me see doesn't he credit give him a karma anyway

1:16:55 You've got karma. Nicholas Haller in Portland, Oregon $420 420-420 Greetings, John and Adam. I have traveled great distances since I last donated and have been taken for granted or have been taking for granted the effort and cost of providing THE best podcast in the universe which with its overwhelming value while downloading the previous show to listen during a four-hour drive i was annoyed to find how slow the episode was downloading! Naturally, I blame my internet provider because they suck

1:17:32 But upon listening to the second donation segment, I became enlightened to what was likely the cause of my problem. An excessive number of douchebags who have been long since listeners who never donate to offset the cost of growing audience Speaking of a long time douchebag, since my last donation it has come to my attention that the carpool buddy who so graciously hit me in the mouth last year has yet to donate. He even texted me soon after this show saying he would for the outrage I not only called Josh Reed out as a douche bag... DOOCHEBAG! ...I also issue him a challenge to achieve knighthood before i do Come at me bro

1:18:13 Thank you again for the best podcast in universe. You've got karma following his Q sheet. Yeah, a cue sheet for me. It nailed it. Andrew Seward in Laurenburg North Carolina came in with a note that he wrote by hand and let me see if I have here Did you do dude, let me see I have something I have it okay again Andrew Wirt, no sound effects for me. It's time to get serious he says. In my last letter I made some silly jokes about Trump pumping well Adam Seed seemed mildly amused this seemed to piss off John it seems that I underestimated the scope of the problem and so all joking aside please allow me to set a record straight we're seeing an unprecedented wave of bias in propaganda in the modern media against the candidate that the establishment considers a great threat to their power and wealth

1:19:11 The fact that the No Agenda show is focusing so much attention on Trump has absolutely nothing to do with Trump. It has everything to do with a coordinated intentional effort to mislead the public about a presidential candidate and derail his campaign! A clip of the day from NNA's show 848 demonstrated this wonderfully as CNN host admits on-the air while his cohost laughs And he says, I know. We couldn't help her any more than we have gotten a free ride from the media as core most of the biggest ones promoting her campaign. How brazen? The bias against Bernie Sanders was nearly as bad and by the way there's something I always forget to mention on this show is that while Trump was getting these huge audiences and the media was covering him closely to ridicule him

1:19:56 Bernie was getting bigger audiences than many kids and they weren't covering anything. They were just, right? It's the same thing you're ignoring this guy same thing I have that Cuomo thing it's 20 seconds might as well play it so everyone hears it again Take quite a while longer what happens to other folks who want to run against her Because she is doing what they call in politics freezing pockets because the donors are giving her money thinking she's gonna run That means they're not going to have available money for other candidates if she doesn't and I don't think she's gonna give it to them She's on her way to deciding. We'll see, we couldn't help her any more than we have. She's got just a free ride so far from the media. We're the biggest ones promoting our campaign. Yeah good work! The bias against Bernie Sanders was nearly as bad as we have seen in emails detailing the DNC's efforts against him as well you guys are doing a great service to our country by exposing this nonsense and the fact that you are taking a financial hit to do so

1:20:51 Earned you even more of my respect. Thank you We need more people in the media who are that's why I was probably irked when he brought this up because it bothers me Yeah, we need more people in media who are earnestly seeking the truth?

1:29:53 Oh my god, there's more. I can't continue with examples for the love of grace! I've been pulled into an alley while walking between a bar and an ice cream shop yes ice cream because she wanted me to bend her over behind a dumpster oh man not urban but a rich suburb called gross point Michigan okay gross point for a good reason Recently, a young lady during copulation spoke in my ear during Marvel's Jessica Jones when she said you can't break me.

I don't have a note from her. Let's take a look at our email we do have a minute We got plenty of minutes. Stephanie Ernst, yeah here it is. I'm Stephanie Ernst and I believe I am a producer today. Today I donated $201 yesterday I just wanted to ask you guys to give a shout out to Matt McVader in Chicago. I want to say thank you for getting me into the program and I wanted him know that i'm no longer a douchebag. Very best from Stephanie Ernst. Stephanie let's get you dedouching!

You can still be out there propagating the formula. Our formula is this we go out, we hit people in the mouth. Hey citizens. Shut up! Shut Up!

1:33:29 Following along perfectly with the Goldwater rule, did you do any further research on the Goldwater Rule? No. I was watching the Olympics Which means as a professional medical doctor or psychologist You never want to diagnose a political candidate with anything. Because you can get sued? You can get sued, yes. Now Dr. Drew was on a radio show which I got a clip from talking about Hillary Clinton's health so of course if we're going to buy into what he said about Trump we should probably buy into what he says about Hillary interesting though that this is not on CNN He has not been asked by Don Lemon to come on CNN and talk about Hillary Clinton's health No! He has been asked to come on to talk about Donald Trump's mental health

1:34:15 And I found this clip to be just astounding. I just called a friend of mine, Dr Robert Heisinger who is an excellent internist pulmonologist and we just dispassionately sat and evaluated the medical record that she had released. Based on the information that she has provided her doctors have provided We were gravely concerned not just about our health care but about her health care Why? Well, it's hard for people to understand. Both of us concluded that if we were providing the care that she was receiving we'd be ashamed to show up in a doctor's lounge and would be laughed out... She is receiving sort-of 1950 level sort of care by our evaluation So we took a look at her record and here are the basic facts

1:34:57 She had two episodes of what's called deep venous thrombosis. Common problem, blood clots in the leg she also has hypothyroidism and she'd been treated for hypothyroidism with something called armor thyroid which is very unconventional now that's strange because Some of my relationships have included women with hypothyroidism and Armor thyroid is not I mean that's a very I think very often prescribed So I don't know where he's coming from with this. That's crazy, crazy to do something like that but... Called Armor Thyroid which is very unconventional and something that we used to use back in the 60s and both he and i went hmmm that's weird And by the way wow Armor Thyroid sometimes has some weird side effects Oh well okay so she goes on Coumadin That's weird because Coumadin really isn't even used anymore Now we use Eliquis or Xarelto things like this

1:35:53 Somebody, the presidential candidate would get one of the newer anticoagulants. Then she falls and hits her head and the complication that has something called a transverse sinus thrombosis This is an exceedingly rare clot I've only seen one of these in my career which is a clot in the collecting system for the cerebral spine fluid and it essentially guarantees that somebody has something wrong with their coagulation system. Well she's had two clots, a transverse sinus thrombosis what's wrong with her coagulation system? Has that been evaluated and oh by the way armor thyroid associated rarely with hypercoagulability. So the very medicine that doctors are using may be causing this problem, and they're using an old-fashioned medicine to treat it? What is going on with her health care?! It's bizarre! I gotta tell you look maybe they have reasons but at a distance it looks bizarre. There oughta be some sort of standard for people who are gonna lead the country or gonna make these important decisions

1:36:49 This, again, Hillary may be fine with all of this. I mean it's dangerous and it's concerning but you can see... And by the way when she... There are two other things that gravely concerned us When she hit her head she had to wear these prism glasses when she came out That is brain damage and so then affecting her balance Now clearly it hasn't affected her cognition but tell us a little more about that That's profound! And then number two, when they screened her for heart disease They did an old-fashioned screen. It just seems like she's getting care from somebody that she met in Arkansas when she was a kid, and I just gotta wonder it. Not so much that her health is a grave concern, is that the care she's getting couldn't make it a concern." No! That was a great guest clip of the day. Thank you. I felt it was up there

1:37:38 Couple of comments on this. One, the first comment is we've never heard anything like this and why doesn't Don Lemon have this on his show? That guy's a douche! Yeah and even if it was on Don Lemon show who would care who would hear it well there's that So a couple things about this first of all there was now when he says, you know This sounds like a really old person that she knew from Arkansas. It is very possible This is a doctor who doesn't really practice anymore Therefore doesn't know about the newer drugs and just wrote a scenario and wrote a prescription to go along with it And here's your health report That's possible I didn't make nothing but sense. I got a note from producer Dustin Jones. I'm sorry Go ahead. I was gonna say there's still an element in here that needs to be discussed well hold on

1:38:25 A note from producer Dustin Jones. I was listening with my wife in the room at the part where Dr Drew says Coumadin isn't really used anymore, she perks up and says that's bullshit! My wife has lupus and is on coumadin and it's for a very specific medical reason related to the lupus. My wife explained to me why but i forgot and it's really irrelevant... Good one. She says she can't take Eliquis or Xarelto because of this specific reason also according to her both Eliquis and Xarelto have issues when you need to stop the bleeding like if you're on it and you get a gash or something, there's number of lawsuits related to it

1:39:04 Finally, Eliquis and Zeralto are from what I can tell still under patent. Coumadin is not so that would make sense in Dr Drew's world where he was like oh come on we can't be selling that stuff we got to sell the stuff that we still make good money on right but i think that that is probably something that has to do with that I kind of agree with that. What is otherwise undiscussed? Well, he says the only time he's ever seen this one crazy thing, this crazy clot that made her... where she supposedly hit her head and she never gave it was very... He was very taken aback by what the results were where she had this bleeding here and didn't make any sense to him. He says he'd only seen this once in his entire career. This is accounted for by the plane crash which nobody wants to talk about!

1:39:54 Well, a lot of people are saying that you're full of crap. We looked through the WikiLeaks and the only thing was in there was a report about the conspiracy theory. Did you read those memos carefully? Of course I did! No one... Not YOU! Oh okay why? The person that's making this is this guy. There's a number of people please explain why they need to be read carefully Because if you read the back and forth, you can tell that something was up. It was discussed as a conspiracy theory but it seems to me that all they were doing in those memos there's two or three people going back and forth on this...was confirming everything! Yeah people really are poor at reading And even if that wasn't in there I mean these are discussion worthy topics

1:40:43 I mean it's in the WikiLeaks emails. Yeah, can somebody just bring it up? Here is a question for you who are like oh this is just because Thursday! Here is the question why doesn't somebody bring this up at a press conference? Oh wait a minute Hillary hasn't held a press conference for like a year so she isn't going to talk about but someone else could they could ask someone else And that is the only thing that makes sense with all these crazy diagnoses and the fact that she had brain damage. Yeah, which is a funny thing in that, then that which got you to clip of the day as what this means she had brain damage. Yeah. He said it right there. That's brain damage. Yeah. Brain damage. You don't get brain damage from tripping in the bathroom necessarily. I mean, you could

1:41:31 She was on kind of anyway. Well read the breed the documents yourself well while we're on drugs for a moment And I mean that literally we yeah, we finally got a report study Let me just see who have the PLOS was it P Los and the actual document here one second This is yes It's published report prescription drugs associated with reports of violence toward others and here we go The study more and its collaborators extracted all serious events reported from the FDA's database from 2004 through September 2009, and identified 484 drugs that had triggered... And we're talking about SSRIs here. We're talking about everything from Shantix to Adderall to Oxy I guess. No not Oxy what was the SSRI? Give me good one. Serotonin. Yeah effects or all this stuff most of it yeah

1:42:36 Let's see, I triggered at least 200 case reports of serious adverse events of any type during that 69 month period. They then investigated to see if any of these 484 drugs had a disproportionate association with violence. They identified 31 such drugs out of the 484 that met this criteria. The 31 suspect drugs accounted for 1527 of the 1937 case reports of violence towards others in the FDA database for that 69-month period." The drugs in that list of 31 included Varenicline, which is the key ingredient in Shantix smoking cessation. 11 antidepressants 6 hypnotics sedatives and 3 drugs for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder

1:43:27 Antidepressants were responsible for 572 case reports of violence towards others, the three ADHD drugs for 108 and the hypnotic or sedatives for 97. This is a pretty damning report I'd say it's probably just the tip of the iceberg Yeah And that will go nowhere But it's just for your own edification Of course its gonna go nowhere because the drug companies which by fact we pointed out in the last newsletter yeah you can't- The drug companies and by the way when I said that comment I was making about people always say this, oh Fox News, there's a dying audience. There is a bunch of old farts. Oh the network news no kids listen to it as a dying audiences they're all going to be out of business in no time. I said in the newsletter and I never said on the show but

1:44:19 They want this old audience. Because selling to these drug companies, which is all you see... I always make a list of one of these days of all the drug ads on all these network news shows. They're 90 second ads they're easy to sell they are expensive and there's lots of them and it's just perfect for this day so you do the kind of marketing you tend to do in broadcasting media any sort as you accumulate a group of people as a product and sell it to the advertiser. That's what you do, that's what we do the opposite." So that's what the network news stations are doing... And they really have a nice band of people because if you're looking at 40 plus I'd say is where you start getting put on beta blockers and all this stuff you probably don't even need. There's just more people coming into their band all the time. Of course they're going to sell cars or was gonna put some cars on during Chevy Truck Month

1:45:13 or Ford truck, they're always going to put Coca-Cola on there because everyone will drink that and beer. Actually there's very little Coca-Cola or beer on the network news shows really very little I don't know that i've ever seen a coke ad What you do get car ads, but they tend to be high-end like Lexus or beyond there. Lots of BMW and Audi ads You get the drug drug drug drug drug drug And that's where it is where the money is go look at the money Unlimited tour alone It's six billion dollars in the United States not one This one of the things I learned at PC magazine when I was being lectured about how to do special interest publications

1:45:51 One of the things you'd run into is that people would say, oh you know your magazine is great but it's too high end. You should have some stuff in there for beginners and it was laughable and then every once while you bring some new person in at a staff and they think this way too and they have to be like... They almost get fired for thinking this way because what you're doing is that you're watering down the core group that you're selling to the advertisers. You want people, we used to call brand specifiers, the guys with all of know-it-alls, the guys who'd read PC Magazine so they could complain, oh they used an ampersand when they should have used a caret. That code is wrong!

1:46:30 That is the guy you want. Double space versus tab, I'm telling you so you... So the network news guys are not going to appeal to kids or middle-agers or anybody else because they've packaged a beautiful group of people to sell to advertisers and that's why it's that's why the news offering is so pathetic as well yeah this is truth They don't wanna hear about what was going on in Europe No, no they don't care. Hey I forgot I wanted to thank Sir John the Brewer He sent me... Oh yes, John the Brewer. Did you get anything from Sir John? No I haven't gotten anything. Yeah he sent me a... He sent a note in about complaining about something else. Oh he sent me six bottles of beer? Yeah And so one of them did not make the journey but he had done it well this In contrast to the previous shipment i received he put each individual bottle

1:47:28 airtight baggie and then had a lot of newspaper in the box as well to protect but also just soak it up. Yeah, and so one top I guess it just wasn't because it's all homemade. It's all home brewed stuff, brew was a little loose and so there was nothing left with is also no evidence of the of the beer except in the news. Oh yeah this is the way he's the way to do now on Yeah So you can send me up with a formula that works He sent me some Larry Brown's Mississippi Blues trail ales and really good stuff I drank two room last night And you know what that does with me Beer while on the job

1:48:08 And we can finally say bye-bye! That's a bad joke. I was thinking of using the joke like that on Twitter, but I decided it was tasteless. I did it on the Twitter and no one called me out on it. Well... You know what? It is possible. We did an entire exposé about five years ago. John McLaughlin or the McLaughlin Group. One of his producers used to be a show listener. They broke down the show, how it was rehearsed and how it was scripted and how it worked. And who is on there? And they put down different people. It gave us a lot of inside dirt. It was great! This show... I don't know that anybody really watched it. He had buffalo-ed the public broadcasting folks into making himself bigger than he was. Yeah. Oh yeah. But you know, he's a staple. You know, he's an icon

1:49:03 I'll miss him. Bye bye! I'll miss him, I'll miss him." Well i was actually going to do a piece on him about uh about a month ago or maybe even less Because I have clips of him. He sounds like he was dead already The last couple of months anyone's seen the show will notice he can't sit up He's like the Pope when it did the Polish pope in his head, and he couldn't lift his head anymore So his head was on the side all that time That was funny It was it wasn't well know how funny it was but that's what it was And this was McLaughlin and he lost all his weight so as his clothes look they were falling off them He was on his way out yeah

1:49:39 Yeah, yeah. Well I'll miss him. I like watching...I did not watch regularly but and of course Eleanor on the show! Yeah what's she gonna do now? Well she's at Huffington Post No i thought she said The Beast Oh who knows Hey October 7th uh I'll be in New York for it's called the New York Audio Summit and this is that university thing that didn't happen last year if you recall was going to go and be on a panel with uh with the CEO of NPR Oh, so I think that's happening now at this event. And so Tina is going to come and we'll probably do a meet up when see if we can get out Thursday after the show

1:50:22 and return on Monday so we can do a meetup in New York. Do a meetup at the Sparks Bar, which is make that our meet up place? Yeah, Sparks. And it's kind of interesting because this will be about the future of radio and include people from Sirius XM satellite radio would include NPR of course I will be representing the podcasters of the universe specifically the best podcasters You probably could represent the podcasters best of all What is interesting that comes right along, and this is I mean...I cannot believe. I'm gonna have to have a chat with Jarl Mohn better known as Lee Masters NPR is shutting down comments on all its websites Talk about a mistake Well it is a mistake but I can see them why they do it. It's rough out there So what?

1:51:19 But that means people are coming to your damn site. Why would you? Oh, oh don't comment what now I'm sorry that makes no sense okay so people are calling each other's comments or most of the entertainment value yes thank you Thank you. I mean yeah, I read comments occasionally when i'm doing a breakdown of something Or a deconstruction of some specific thing that happens to be You can catch it on the internet? I'll look at the comments because within the comments usually if there's like hundreds of comments Yeah, I don't like it when there's thousands cuz then you can't get through right but just like maybe 50 to 100 comments Usually within the comments

1:51:57 And budding writers should notice this. There's material in there that is usable! Yeah, jokes all kinds of stuff. There are jokes and punchlines...and there are also observations from some expert who has to go online and blurt it out he goes I used to work at the NSA and that's not how they do things They have a code 3 before they do a code 4 Not a code 3 before they do a code 2 You've got it backwards Yeah, exactly. There's lots of experts in there that are the real sources and so we certainly try to do that here by the way the chat room is not the same

1:52:33 While it's sure, you can throw in a joke or whatever. But the chat room is supposed to be an integrated part of the production You are giving me information in real time When you put crap in there The signal-to-noise ratio screws up Correcting mistakes on display It's great! That's great! Is a major thing for podcasters who... We make mistakes as we yak away This show is done without rehearsals Yeah Unlike Chris Cuomo Yes, like with Chris Cuomo So while that's happening here in the Gitmo Nation East, United States of Kingdom of Great Britain. The Metropolitan Police are now... they have got a special team, a team with specialist police officers is being set up to investigate online hate crimes including abuse on Twitter and Facebook! This thing is funded it's pilot project two million dollars They already got quarter of it from London Mayor's office

1:53:33 And the spokesman said there would be no place for hate in London and there would be a zero of online abuse. The team which will be set up in the coming months will identify the location of crimes and allocate them to the appropriate force. This is from the BBC They will work with a team of volunteers, oh that just fell apart there I think they're just out to get Katie Hopkins The Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime known as MOPAC Which is something very different here in Austin Said social media provides hate crime perpetrators with a veil of anonymity Making it harder to bring them to justice And potentially impacting a larger number of people

1:54:17 Victims can become isolated, living in fear of the online behavior materializing in the real world. Community groups in London have told us that online hate crime is an issue of increasing concern to them and one for which the police response has been inconsistent. Ladies and gentlemen of Britain are you going to accept this? Are you going to take this? That speech is going to be punishable It already is, but if you say hey you suck! You old guy. That would be a hate crime because it's ageism. Now somehow I don't think they'll be looking for that specifically but come on who standing up and saying no this is very dangerous? You can't do this stuff okay? I heard crickets nobody... No one standing up. I have one last thing for you catching up on the protocol for the national anthem If you are not in uniform

1:55:16 Should you hold your hand over your heart or not? Well, turns out there's a law. Ah! A law... U.S Code that's right 36 U.S code section 301 national anthem This is the law people designation The composition consisting of the words and music known as the Star Spangled Banner is the national anthem Conduct during playing of the national anthem During a rendition of the National Anthem 1 Hold on When the flag... Are you sure this wasn't in The Onion? I want to just make sure. No, this is from Cornell's Law Library Okay Yeah This is fact and truth When the flag is displayed individuals in uniform should give the military salute at the first note of the anthem and maintain that position until the last note which as you know it was a really long one B

1:56:08 Members of the Armed Forces and veterans who are present but not in uniform may render the military salute in the manner provided for individuals in uniform, and all other persons present should face the flag stand at attention with their right hand over the heart. And men not in uniform if applicable should remove their head dress with their right hand and hold it at left shoulder, the hand being over the heart And when the flag is not displayed, all present should face toward the music and act in the same manner they would if the flag were displayed. Okay now we know! Well you don't want to be in violation then? You don't want to be in violation

1:56:52 Don't want to be in violation. You want to be a rule follower, so what is the punishment and enforcement sections of this bill? What's the punishment and how do they enforce it? I don't think there is a punishment section should there be? Well if you don't do it what are they going to do with you? Are they gonna hit you in the head punch you in the gut? What's the deal? I'm a rule follower so... If the rules that we have to do it then I'll do it Yeah follow the rules let me say notes well there was a lot of addenda Hmm. Publication... I generally do not see people putting their hand over their hearts, I think that's probably the majority opinion. Well... I see a lot of people doing it! Yeah, um it is you know its title 36 subtitle 1 part 8 chapter 3 It does not have... I didn't know that veterans are supposed to salute? Yeah yeah yeah I don't see any..I'm looking around here maybe someone else can help me... But if your'e not a veteran and you salute is there provision for that

1:57:53 No, there's no provision. Now there is service flag... Oh this is interesting! Service flag and service lapel button I have a flag You have a flag lapel button? Yeah, I love the little flag pin. Yeah A service flag approved... oh wait, wait... What country are you from? Individuals entitled to display the service flag or not really entitled I guess. A service flag approved by the Secretary of Defense made... oh has to be approved like a like a rabbi has to bless it kosher or maybe halal like a halal flag Man, okay. I didn't know what I was... What? You didn't finish! We don't know what you're talking about. Oh okay a service flag approved by the Secretary of Defense may be displayed in a window of the place of residence of individuals who are members- A little bitty flag?! Are you talking about lapel pin in the window? No, I'm sorry here's the lapel button. A service lapel button approved by the secretary maybe worn by members of the immediate family of an individual serving in the armed forces of the United States during any period of war or hostilities in which the Armed Forces of the United States are engaged. What about Donald Trump wearing one?

1:58:58 Well, he may be approved. Check this out! Any person may apply to the Secretary of Defense for a license to manufacture and sell the approved service flag or the approved service lapel button or both. Any person that manufactures a service flag or service lapel button without... for having first obtained a license or otherwise violates this section is liable to United States government for civil penalty if not more than $1,000 So if you're in China illegally making these flags and you import them, you could be fined for a thousand bucks? I don't think that...I've never heard this enforced. Yeah. There's a lot of lax laws here they're not enforcing like they're just asking for trouble. Scuff laws. They are encouraging it!

1:59:43 I'm just reporting. This is an interesting segment! Yeah, just figured I'd throw a couple things out at you like do something fun. Why don't you play me a clip? All right let's go on with that how come this isn't being...I'm just gonna ask it maybe we only need to play the clip but why is Clinton's perjury case which is apparently going forward not Not being talked about at all. This is perjury for the House? Yeah, she perjured herself when she gave testimony to the House of Representatives Because the media is doing... they're cheerleading We've heard Cuomo say it They're doing all they can That's why

2:00:26 Let me hear the, this is the clip. It's just a little bit from RT so they're giving us the needle. More fuel has been thrown on the flames surrounding the Hillary Clinton email scandal. It appears that Democratic presidential nominee may not have been 100% honest with her testimony before Congress. RTS Caleb Moppan reports A letter signed by two House committee chairmen in the U.S. Congress claims that Hillary Clinton lied under oath when she testified before Congress last October about the scandal involving her emails The letter says that on four different occasions, Hillary Clinton may have committed the crime known as perjury Now perjury is a very serious crime in the United States illegal at both state and federal levels And if convicted she could end up behind bars

2:01:11 Now, the first instance in which Hillary Clinton could have committed perjury was when she testified that she had not forwarded any classified emails to her personal server. There was nothing marked classified on my emails either sent or received. Secretary Clinton said she never sent or received any classified information over her private email. Was that true? Our investigation found that there was classified information sent. So it was not true? Perjury is also on the table when Hillary Clinton says that her lawyers saw all of her personal emails Did someone physically look at the 62,000 emails or did you use search terms date parameters I want to know the specifics They did all of that they also went through every single email Lawyers doing this sorting for Secretary Clinton in 2014 did not individually read the content

2:01:59 of all of her emails. Case number three is when Clinton said she only used one device there was one server on your property in New York and a second server hosted by a Colorado company in Howes, New Jersey that right? There were two servers no there was a they was a server just one that was already being used by my husband's team. Secretary Clinton says you use just one device was that true She used multiple devices during the four years of her term as Secretary. What difference at this point does it make? What difference at this point doesn't make is the way that media sees it now The funniest story that I picked up this week if you're looking for clips, oh like put this near the end of the show I got some stuff. I was just bored of talking and want to hear your clips well then let's play this clip

2:02:48 Now, we were talking the theme of this show is emails leaking. They leak here and they leak there and I mentioned in the newsletter that we've talked about the dangers of email and how easy they are to hack... And I would like to point out that you can send encrypted email to me and I encourage everyone look into it. GPG Tools is fantastic. It integrates right with your e-mail program so its not a lot of hassle And I encourage everyone to use this for just why not? You know if it's like on the Mac, if I send an email to Mark Void0 It automatically encrypts because it knows that I want to send him encrypted messages and when he you know my reply to him. I don't have to click anything So it's seamless at this point. It does not integrate well with squirrel mail though John

2:03:37 Now, this is hacked emails that took place in Germany. This is not being reported at all because I think it's because it's too funny American media, I don't get it. This is a very funny story if you have to have kind of a sick sense of humor but it's the guys doing some... working for the government doing some housing for refugees apparently have zero respect for the refugees to the point where they're making snide remarks and they've lost their contract after this. Do you know about this story? I haven't, no. I haven't heard this part, no. Yeah you're gonna enjoy this. This is the hilarious email clip The German government has terminated the contract of a firm that found accommodation for migrants after an offensive email exchange between staff members was leaked to the national press The emails make jokes about refugees which neither the authorities nor public found funny Emily Sue reports from Berlin

2:04:36 Imagine if you're running a company and it receives a 5,000 euro donation. What would you do? Well it's only logical to discuss with your employees what to do with the money and how to put it into good use but for this one private refugee housing management firm in Germany when one employee suggested building a sandpit for the children in their homes that black humor in this supposedly normal formal and professional conversations simply spiraled out of control. While the director of one refugee home, going by the name Peggy M., she replied to that proposal off the sandpit saying that it will very quickly become a big ashtray or local toilet. She then suggested the company build a small child guillotine. They responded saying its good suggestion and then began forwarding pictures of guillotines and beheaded people.

2:05:23 Yan then responded to these photos complaining about the mess that these beheadings will make. And this triggered her managing director, presumably her boss saying that nobody would want to clean up the mess and said that it's a better job for quote the maximally pigmented with an apparent reference to skin color. This sort of very offensive back-and-forth continued until in the end someone even suggested to build large-volume crematoriums to dispose the bodies. These offensive leaked emails of course triggered a very strong reaction from the German government, with the German social affairs minister describing the email exchange as unspeakable and cannot be explained or excused in any way The firm's lawyer tried to play down the exchange saying that AutoCorrect was responsible for the word guillotine

2:06:12 Wait, hold on. Borderline. Germans be Germans! That is fantastic. Hey we need some ovens over here. You know I got a couple of boots on the ground in Germany right now and people are getting pissed at Angola they are not happy at all what it's gonna take to get them mad enough to vote her out. They can't do it! It's like they're all irked, but nobody does it. There is an election coming so she's going to be in trouble. Staying in Germany for a moment there none too happy with the slowness of Britain invoking article 50

2:06:57 In order to complete their Brexit, Germany has urged London not to delay Brexit following a flurry of British media reports which suggested Prime Minister Theresa May might postpone the formal procedure to leave the EU. The start of January is widely touted as the most likely date to trigger Article 50 but so far Downing Street has only said it will not be invoked this year Germany's European Affairs Minister said the end of the year should really be sufficient time to get organised and adjust to the new situation. It does not need any additional political pressure, I am convinced that the economic pressure from Great Britain itself is strong enough because it in the interests of Britons and especially the British economy to provide more clarity on how Great Britain will continue outside the EU."

2:07:42 Under the Lisbon Treaty, Article 50 must be enacted before the formal two-year negotiations on Britain's departure from the EU can begin. Despite mounting political pressure on Theresa May from Berlin and other European capitals to stick to a quick timetable there are growing concerns she may be forced to delay because Britain's new Brexit and international trade departments will not be ready that could mean the UK remaining inside the EU until at least 2019 Mmm, that doesn't sound right. They don't give a crap about your damn little referendum! They don't care one bit... Hey you know the... Do over? Yeah You know that cleric who was always on BBC and Sky News in the UK Anjam Chowdhury

2:08:33 Oh yeah, Chowdhury. Yeah he's in trouble! Britain's most high-profile hate preacher Anjum Chowdhury has been found guilty of supporting the so called Islamic State group The radical Islamist cleric was convicted alongside associate Mohammed Mizanur Rahman of using online lectures and messages to inspire support for the militant organization Both faced 10 years in jail at their sentencing due in September Dubbed the most hated man in Britain for his rhetoric Chowdhury gained notoriety for praising the men behind the 9-11 attacks. He was once the head of Al Mujajiroun, which has been linked to dozens of terror suspects Michael Adebolajo one of the men who killed British soldier Lee Rigby had attended protests organized by Chowdhury Good that guy's finally gonna be gone get him out of the way pain in the ass Hey got a note from Sir Herb A service flag is not what we think it is

2:09:29 A service flag is a rectangular flag, oriented vertically. Red border white background blue star in the middle that's what a service flag is. And that is... Star in the middle? Yeah if you search for service flag You'll see it says special flag indicates of family members currently serving during war or hostilities but its not an American flag It's a flag that has this has a blue star in the middle See, this is everything all this information that you dug up has got nothing to do with anything. Do we salute that? I mean what did you know no that has nothing to know there's nothing and you still salute the That is the American flag We were just looking at other stuff. We're looking at how remember I was looking for peanut penalty And I came up with a service flag thing and it was two separate were you listening Yeah, I was but yeah, you salute exactly Okay Well here's one let's play Biden in Serbia

2:10:32 Okay, Biden in Serbia. In Belgrade he got a warm reception from the country's Prime Minister, though others were less welcoming. During his brief visit hundreds of nationalist protesters took to the streets calling on America to vote for Donald Trump, the US Republican presidential nominee Biden is of course a Democrat and in previous remarks about Serbia might explain the protesters attitudes

2:11:16 He they play and here's what they do. They put this is again RT putting a bunch of stuff up on the screen and not reading it, right? Which is just so I can't use it It's no good in the clip I do guy can tell you some of the stuff he said that they were throwing back at his face And saying with everyone should vote for Trump none of this covered At all by them our media okay guys who cares Here's One guy, Paul Palachuk I think is talking about some of the stuff he said. Larry King live Biden came on and he said Serbs are illiterate degenerates baby killers butchers and rapists

2:11:52 Now, if Trump had said this... No. This is Biden on Larry King Live during the Serbian... Oh in like 95-96? Yeah 99 I think was when he said it. We blew up a bunch of Muslims! Yes, Serbs are illiterate degenerates baby killers butchers and rapists And that is exactly the words that Madeleine Albright uses I might add Yeah, his assertions during the senatorial deliberations in 99 over NATO aggression against Serbia. He said all Serbs should be placed in Nazi-style concentration camps and then he said some other stuff like that now there you know you can call this guy's a racist pig! Yeah that's pretty bad we should get clips of that I would love to I'm sure it's around I'm sure it is too

2:12:39 I mean Biden is always shooting his mouth off and you know condemning everybody else for doing the same thing. Yeah, but he was talking about Donald Trump can't have this secret codes nuclear codes and he points out he said hey that guy over there he's holding the codes right now should something happen to the president why don't just point a point the guy out with the codes in the room Well, anyway go on the clip to for Biden and this is the final about this. The final aspect of the story which is what's really going on here? Well after Belgrade Bidens next stop is Kosovo which proclaimed independence from Serbia following the NATO bombardment there an entire motorway has been renamed after Biden just ahead of his visit

2:13:18 as a display of gratitude for America's role in the 1999 campaign. The whole aim of the vice president's trip is to attempt to mend relations between the two sides, Serbia being one of the states that does not recognize Kosovo's independence. While foreign affairs expert Srdja Trifkovic thinks that Kosovo status is being used to put pressure on Belgrade. That's fantastic. I love it. Oops hold on a second. I'm gonna show my support by donating to KnowAgenda, imagine all the people who could do that oh yeah that'd be fab. I have a make good here first. That was awkward Not really not to me You wanted to say something? Yeah i did but- I'm so sorry It's okay go on Just trying to move the train forward

2:29:14 Saugus I tell you California and that concludes our group of well-wishers and producers for show whatever the show never is You know what happened somewhere when we started the donation segment did something that you got like a little thrown off. What happened? Nothing. Oh, okay it's just my perception No I said earlier in the show that my reads weren't good today as I mentioned that That's okay i didn't hear that Did want to mention that Miles Comer In his note said To Void Zero and Mountain Vortex Would a separate donors only RSS feed with faster downloads help? And I don't want to say this of course comes up from time-to-time no we're not going to do that

2:29:55 It also makes no sense because then you have to have separate infrastructure. You'd need a database... Yeah, it's going through the same pipe and now yes this is the whole point the only way we can actually keep this show going of course through your financial support is by keeping everything open. You gotta keep it all open if you go to that if you start adding work You know, like we can't have producers. We're blessed with these guys with Void and Mountain because they're doing it for free! They could be doing other things with their time...

2:30:32 Yeah, we're actually the two of the best in the world. So that makes it very nice for this show and they know how to save money and they don't stretch it. Well, they only come when they need it. Exactly! Well thank you all very much thanks to everyone under $50 for reasons of anonymity usually This is how it works, value for value. People are liking the shows we're doing and it shows We appreciate that And remember we have another show coming up on Sunday! Dvorak dot org slash N A Jobs Jobs Jobs Jobs Jobs Jobs and jobs Let's vote for jobs! Muthach Karma

2:31:18 Here we go, here we got a bladed birthday. Actually this was on the list Nicholas Samaras says happy birthday to Sir Bill of The Rock who celebrated August 14th We have Susan Johnson says happy birthday to her son Evan Johnson turned 26 on the 18th Gabriel Visecheck says Happy Birthday his brother Daniel Vicecheck celebrated on August 20th Gabriel Visecek also says happy birthday to his nephew Jasper Visecek celebrating on the 23rd of August. Busy household! Hailey Hunziker, happy birthday to Evan Johnson celebrating today Dylan Hendrick Whoa, that was indeed quite a list.

2:32:19 Coinbreaker breaker. It was the record breaker now, I think we had a late entry come in from Pete from Brisbane who donated 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and he says whilst drinking a bold Australian red with body it reminded me of the two of you and prompted me to donate. That sounds right. Karma to you both shout out to Sir Snorkel and I'm pretty sure I am close to being a knight and Eric checked it and indeed he is so we need first we need the blades Hold on hold on okay I got it I left over in the other place So Pete from Brisbane, step on up. Jeffrey Wolfers please join us here at the podium and Raleigh Hawk all three of you have donated to the best podcast in the universe amount of $1,000 or more and therefore I'm very proud to pronounce the Knights of the Noah Roundtable. Here you go Sir Pete from Brisbane, Sir Jeffery of Camden

2:33:13 and Sir Lineman of the Net. No, Sir Lineman of the Net. And you're a Black Knight! There ya go, Raleigh Hawk. Gentlemen for you we have the usual hookers and blow run boys in Chardonnay, mangoes and filet mignon cookies and vodka tacos and tequila meth sluts and moonshine Legos and leg warmers garlic and broccoli DMT and astral travel vodka vanilla breast milk and pavlo mutton and mead ginger ale and gerbils and sparkling cider and escorts if you have any need for that Then just join the roundtable and for you guys Raleigh hot got to be a black night because he was sent in a number of notes Yeah that nobody answered This happens, by the way to any... It could happen to anyone. This is like falling through the cracks and it's actually kind of interesting to witness it because when it happens, it doesn't fall through the crack once. No, usually falls over and over again. And this was like a nightmare to get this guy finally on the podium but he does bring up a question which the peerage committee has his... Oh good! What is the question? He brings up the question When are you a knight

2:34:16 Is it when you request it, when you're supposed to get it? When the numbers gets to a thousand or when your knighted. And the answer is when you are knighted. Of course, of course! And so he was concerned because he doesn't have seniority over one of his pals who I guess came in about the same time and he was hoping to trump him. Seniority but he doesn't but he's got the Black Knight moniker which i think it is worth a punch. Got a package? Got a package for... Package. Want a package?

2:34:52 I've got a package. My packages already lined up, can i do my package? Do your package! My package is Julian Assange being interviewed by NPR and this it's like two different worlds colliding It really is...it's so odd to hear the questions NPR asks over and over again because you know they're journalists over there No Okay, we're gonna start so I'll just go right into it with an assertion from this NPR host which of course is incorrect. Every cyber expert who's looked at this has said it's Russia are you telling me that information did not come to you?

2:35:35 You start off with a hot question like that and there's nobody, nobody has said this. Luckily Mr... Name names! Luckily Mr. Assange, well FireEye do you know the Clintons hired FireEye? I don't want to hear about it. Yeah, HireEye, FireEye this is a government organization, Shills anyway. Russia? No. Let me just rewind it. It started over sorry. It's worth hearing again Every cyber expert who's looked at this has said it is Russia. Are you telling me that information did not come to you from Russia? No cyber expert has said that our emails we published come from Russia, what they have said is they have looked at some of the hacking over the DNC over last two years and say that malware in that hacking appeared to be Russian and that's a different question

2:36:22 Thank you for setting us straight there, Mr. Assange Now NPR I'm sure like many other journalistic outlets are probably wishing they had this huge scoop kind of the way WikiLeaks used to work with them but that's not happening anymore so now we're going to ask all the a-hole questions something that any good journalist or any publisher would never reveal is John? Your source Right But...I guess you can keep asking for it Do you know where these emails came from? Yes, I know where they came from. They came from the DNC So you know the source that provided them to here Oh We don't comment on sourcing because it makes it easier for any investigation Okay, that was he asked us a total of five times in the interview what's the source what's the source? That was one yeah

2:37:16 Now, a good question which Assange answered appropriately. Okay so if you do indeed have or get in possession of stuff about the Trump campaign you would be just as ready to release that as you were the DNC emails? Yes, of course if anyone has information that is from inside the Trump campaign which is authentic it's not like some claimed witness statement but actually internal documentation we'd be very happy to receive and publish it Boy, wow. NPR's a bitch. Amazed by this. This is like the same line of questioning we've heard before from other outlets as though they'd been handed a sheet of paper. They do not- Exactly. You blame the Russians number one ask for the sources number two how can we not going after Trump? We played a clip very similar to this. Yes! What other questions... Bill Maher asked this why should I go after Trump Oh you know that guy he probably watched Bill Maher show his prep for the interview

2:38:10 I think there's something more going on here. Well, yeah... Is it paranoid to look at these uncensored documents? These emails that are released by you and if they believe that could change a US presidential election could be a threat to national security why isn't it logical for them to see you as a possible threat? Hold on hold on hold it right there okay hold it right there This is a great journalistic scoop. 20,000 emails from within the heart of the DNC which has led to the resignation of the top four officials at the DNC. Those resignations occurred because it revealed an attempt to fix the primary process invader of Hillary Clinton." And so nice and refreshing to hear him reiterate that because that is no longer... That wasn't the news from the minute it happened! It was all the Russians

2:38:58 I mean, we just have to step back once in a while and just say you know please remember what happened before your very eyes. Damning information came out showing bigotry bias and corruption really a form of corruption inside the club which is okay it's their club that was rarely the topic and four people resigned How much news did we hear about it? Almost nothing. It revealed an attempt to fix the primary process in favor of Hillary Clinton That's a remarkable and important contribution to US democracy by our sources, and by WikiLeaks Any allegation that that is a process which should be stopped is deeply worrying

2:39:37 Let's be realistic. It's coming about because Hillary Clinton is in a position where she is trying to gain support and reduce criticism, and her supporters in the media and elsewhere are trying to distract. That's correct! And then the final guy is a douchebag. The interviewer talking about the journalist? Yeah, I am going to mention this again. I say it all the time. I'm gonna say it again you are given a treasure trove if your somebody looking to dig up dirt on somebody You've got a treasure trove of information in WikiLeaks. Months, months of publishing! Months? Years in reality considering the amount of stuff they have and what do you do? You bitch about the process oh...you guys are just trying to I mean go after the guy instead of taking advantage of him Well if it was a guy that would have been okay See what do you mean going after Assange? Going after Assange and Wikileaks

2:40:37 They flip-flopped 180 degrees. They used to be best friends, all of them Last clip regarding Seth Rich the DNC employee who was murdered two to the head... Two to back in the head I might add And again, he's just following what Captain Talking Point says. Now of course others suggest Wikileaks has been making an effort to distract... ...to draw attention away from its alleged sources in Russia The group announced it would offer a $20,000 reward By the way, what he's reading here is done after the fact. Assange is not hearing all of this you can hear it at the audio edit and because he's such a pussy probably wasn't or maybe had to edit pieces out because Assange does call him out on what he did hear. Sources in Russia The group announced they would offer $20,000 reward for information about Seth Rich A 27 year old DNC staffer who was shot and killed last month In what police suspect was late night robbery gone bad

2:41:37 WikiLeaks offering that reward spark speculation that Rich was in some way involved with the DNC emails. Some have seen that as possibly a, some kind of smoke screen maybe an effort by you to draw attention away from some relationship with your actual sources in Russia? How do you respond to that? Yeah but it's false his parents are grieving they have called for information the police have called for information we're trying to contribute to that we are not alleging murder is a result of his allegations of him being a wikiLeaks source because we don't have proof that any allegation that someone has been murdered because they're a wikiLeaks source even if it only as a small probability been true, is very concerning to us. We have a perfect record in protecting the identity about sources

2:42:23 and we want to establish quickly exactly what the circumstances were of Seth Rich's killing. Was he a source of yours? We don't disclose sources, even dead sources. You know this guy... There are couple things there is a meme that really besides this guy keep using Russia Russia Russia This guy drops this meme that really bothers me I'm just kind of stunned nobody ever picks it up and throws it away Robbery gone bad. Yeah, that's a good one. What robbery goes well? Let's ask the question what makes a robbery go bad when you die no

2:43:07 I mean, why would a guy rob this? He's gonna... Oh robbery gone bad and he didn't take any money you mean. He didn't take any money didn't even get to his wallet did nothing shot the guy dead yeah and then disappears that they've called this a robbery gone bad with what evidence do they have it is a robbery in the first place and not just an assassination but what's how does it what would make that okay I'm the guy with the gun and your the other guy and I come up shoot you twice in that back of their head You dropped it, you dropped down and now it's my opportunity to reach in and grab your wallet and money and grab your watch and then take off.

2:43:43 I didn't do that so it's a robbery gone bad. Stop citizen, what are you doing there with that dead body? What are you doing citizen?! This may be a robbery gone bad! That's the only thing...what you just did is the only thing that would make this robbery go bad right? Yeah into...right? Right? Did you just say right?? Somebody caught..I acknowledge it You don't have to keep hounding me. So this guy Shoots the guy and then he just takes off and unless somebody interrupted him which means there was a witness. Yeah, where's the witness? Yeah What I what I like is though what the way Assange is explaining it now as you says hey look

2:44:26 We may or may not have received the documents from that guy. In fact, it sounds more like we got documents from someone else who maybe got it from that guy but anytime there is an allegation that someone was a source for WikiLeaks or helped us and they get killed...we investigate! Makes total sense. Although of course he was the source you know? That's what we want to believe Well then the other guys implies this is a smokescreen But why would Wikileaks even bother with a smokescreen? They've never done that ever before. Yeah, because they're not all in on the Russian thing! That's the problem you know it's these people believe it was Russia they believe this John this is not open for debate they believe it was Russia yeah I see it on their face bags people believe its Russia

2:45:21 So, you know that was the message they received. Okay! Message received I got it...I will pay attention and think it's Russia all the time Putin bad, Putin bad Trump Putin Well, I find it depressing It is Luckily we have a few people that listen to us And they'll be- Who ask these questions of their friends Well if there was a robbery gone bad what made it go bad? Yeah and these people will be much better for it Much healthier for it for sure I have a good one here. I want you to play this is a CENTCOM, you know? This is interesting for a couple of different layers. This is on CBS so that means which is the front for the CIA's national news and so they do everything with a purpose. It's the CIA publication

2:46:12 So, they do everything with a purpose. So when they bring this story up there's a reason for it I'm not sure what the reason is right off the top of my head and i haven't been able to figure out listening this report but there some reasons or some other battle going on anytime you always these new intelligence groups in their are iraqi that don't work together and then the case of this thing i want you to be evan override this about sen comes report being doctored Yeah, play it and then I'll bring up the point. But I want an overriding consideration here as you listen to it Where's James Clapper? Isn't he supposed to keep this sort of thing from happening

2:46:48 For more than a year now, Americans have been told that the war against ISIS in Syria and Iraq has been going well. As were the US efforts to train Iraqi soldiers But today, a congressional task force said that intelligence was altered to make it appear things were going better then they were And it blamed U.S Central Command which runs the wars in the Middle East Jim Axelrod has been looking into this The task force was formed to investigate a whistleblower complaint filed by a senior analyst at CENTCOM that intelligence was being manipulated by command leadership. Republican Congressman Mike Pompeo is a member of the task force. This information from talented career professionals inside the analytic arm at CENTCOM did their job and accurately depicted what's going on in the ground, but when it got to very senior levels that information was changed

2:47:43 According to the report, starting around mid-2014 final intelligence reports and public statements issued by CENTCOM painted a rosier picture of the Iraqi army's strength than than the initial assessments of its own analysts. Ladies and gentlemen, we are making progress... Such as when CENTCOM's then-commander General Lloyd Austin testified in March 2015 that ISIS had been weakened in Iraq The fact is that he can no longer do what he did at the outset which was to seize and to hold new territory He has assumed a defensive crouch in Iraq. Around the same time, a CENTCOM official stated the Iraqi army could soon be ready to launch a major offensive to retake the city of Mosul A year and half later that still hasn't happened When we send young men and women out to fight for our country they need to have straight up intelligence providing them information about what they're up against

2:48:41 This task force was made up entirely of Republicans, but late today Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee released their findings and they largely reached the same conclusions. As for CENTCOM Scott this statement... They are reviewing the report but since the investigation is ongoing there will be no comment. Jim Axelrod reporting for... So this is something that when we reported on it months ago? Yeah It was a conspiracy theory crazy Right. Yeah, and I like the term defensive crouch Well the thing that bothers me at the end is this meme that i think we're too easily accepting of Okay This is a bogus meme That We can't talk about it because It's an ongoing investigation

2:49:30 And you hear this about everything. There's no investigation, they're just reviewing he says in the report it says that they're reviewing it but this reviewing is every time you open a book an ongoing investigation you can't talk about and I've heard this on Trump is using it for his taxes too yeah I hear this over and over again do we kid? It's an ongoing investigate why? You can talk about it what difference does it make it's an ongoing investigate so what Yeah. So what? Well, it's policy is not rule or law... Sometimes it's like... Policy is to shut up! Yeah Loretta Lynch will say it is a you know policy to not we don't discuss I mean this is what you Department of Justice what you do is investigate so you might as well just say well we don't report on anything because we investigate we don't report our investigations for anything of the kind

2:50:26 Anyways, it's a bug in me. Yeah well I'm gonna call it for today John I think Unless you have something I have one last thing when I get out of the way shorty shorty shorty That's just because I do we've been avoiding this but the Pokemon update needs to be played okay You need a Pokemon update jingle is what you need. Thieves appear to be targeting Pokemon Go players in Berkeley, it's happened three times over the last month the most recent occurred on Monday at Berkeley Civic Center Park but the players successfully wrestled the phone away now in two other cases the robbers punch players or knock them to the ground Police suggest people keep their phones in their pockets and don't play the game at night. Investigators say they've made an arrest in one of those cases. We're all gonna die!
