About this episode

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange prepares an October surprise targeting the Clinton Foundation as allegations surface regarding a Swiss-based financial pipeline from Saudi Arabia. While Alec Baldwin debuts a balanced caricature of Donald Trump on Saturday Night Live, the Commission on Presidential Debates confirms technical failures with Trump's microphone that may have altered the acoustic feedback during his first face-off with Hillary Clinton. These developments coincide with growing scrutiny over Clinton's health after a raspy rally performance in Florida and a satirical Misery-themed montage from the Washington Free Beacon.

In Washington, FBI Director James Comey faced intense questioning from Representative Trey Gowdy regarding immunity agreements granted to Cheryl Mills and Justin Cooper during the private server investigation. Beyond the Beltway, Wells Fargo CEO John Stumpf was excoriated by Congressman Michael Capuano over a culture of corruption involving 5,300 fired workers, while Deutsche Bank faces a liquidity crisis drawing comparisons to the Lehman Brothers collapse. Internationally, the Joint Investigation Team linked the MH17 downing to a Russian Buk missile, and Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte sparked a diplomatic rift by comparing his domestic drug war to the Holocaust.

This episode features the knighting of James Richards as the Vaping Dude Named Ben and a deep dive into oikophobia, the irrational aversion to one's own cultural heritage. The hosts track the closure of the legendary Carnegie Deli in Manhattan and analyze a bizarre New York Post report claiming comedian Andy Kaufman faked his death to become Donald Trump. Sir Brian Knight of Northern Connecticut joins the production as the show celebrates its ninth anniversary with a look at Japanese pregnancy simulators and Zika virus remixes.

Saturday Night Live, Alec Baldwin Donald Trump Impression

Alec Baldwin debuted his portrayal of Donald Trump on Saturday Night Live, drawing mixed reviews for his vocal cadence and specific pronunciations. The sketch addressed the first presidential debate, including references to Alicia Machado and Rosie O'Donnell. Critics noted the performance was surprisingly balanced in its mockery of both Trump and Hillary Clinton.

02:12 I think you're right. Stuff like this comes out and is absolutely, it's just nothing. Here in the United States of Gitmo Nation everyone was all a tizzy Friday and Saturday just the mainstream media going crazy because we have Alec Baldwin playing Donald Trump on Saturday Night Live. You know, I went out of my way to watch that me too and i was i was disappointed. I fell asleep in the process and I never got to sleep. What during the actual opening? The opening what... Was it any good You know, Baldwin if you close your eyes he has a lot of the cadence down. Although he made a big point instead of saying China he said Jaina which was odd because it's funny the way Trump says China, China

03:03 But Baldwin, you know for some reason thought it was Gina. I'm not sure why he did that artistic license? Uh i have a little...I have about a minute of the opening if you want uh oh yeah i'd be interested yeah the look though Yeah, they could have done better. He could've done... Everything I saw it wasn't even you know there are some guys get even when Jimmy Fallon does Trump and i think he's fine. I think he does yeah there is a great Trump. He looks more like Trump than... Trump! Well maybe more than Trump too but definitely more so than Alec Baldwin right

03:40 Baldwin did a weird duck face thing. Anyway, here's a bit for those of you who fell asleep during the opening of Saturday Night Live. Well this has been an illuminating debate but now it is time for our final- The thing that I liked about what they did is they didn't just hammer Trump, y'know? Hey we're gonna butt slam Trump! They were pretty critical of Hillary Clinton too, I like that I'm sorry. What was that? Who is Alicia Machado? Thank you for bringing that up Lester. She is a strong, beautiful, polite... They actually when she did that ummm..I don't know if anyone noticed it but she did the scratching the side of her nose bit even umm

04:28 I think it was like a nice little secret, little signal. Like oh yeah we saw that we saw that happen. Beautiful political prop that i almost forgot to mention tonight even though we already made a web video about her uh Alicia Machado was Miss Universe in 1996 Where'd you find this? And Donald Trump called her miss piggy How do you know this? He's spot on with that. Mr. Trump your response Lester, why are we talking about this woman? We should be talking about the important issues like Rosie O'Donnell. And how she's a fat loser and everyone agrees with me and I just wanted to bring that up in a presidential debate right at the end my own volition good idea i did it Secretary Clinton why are you crying? I'm sorry Lester... This is going so well

05:25 He has the cadence, he had some funny jokes in there. And they were critical of Hillary that was refreshing I would say for the Hollywood elites however on my beat On my beat there was a lot of conversation about well if Donald Trump does bring up bills passed you know what are we going to do and then of course This discussion coming back, well you know Hillary shamed the women who were accusing Bill Clinton. Now there's two parts of this story which ends just a lot of the history that I think people forget. There were women who accused him of rape

CHAPTER 03 / 45 Discussion

The View, Bill Clinton Sexual Assault Allegations

Panelists on The View discussed the history of sexual assault allegations against Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton's past reactions to his accusers. The conversation highlighted a perceived double standard in how the media treats "fat-shaming" regarding male versus female politicians. Specific references were made to Monica Lewinsky and Jennifer Flowers, alongside a debate over "girl code" in the context of infidelity.

the view· bill clinton· monica lewinsky· jennifer flowers· sexual assault· sexism

06:17 And that's the thing that keeps getting pushed around and not really talked about in mainstream media. And all of this is pretty despicable anyway, it's just sad that we're talking about but the view on my beat The view, they have their own. I mean just when you hear these things and I'm very...this whole even Miss Universe thing you know it's that you can't fat shame in any way a woman but if your Chris Christie Then it's okay, then we can make jokes. And so when you hear this just replace any time they're talking about a woman with a man and you tell me if this isn't extremely sexist the way the view thinks in the way they talk to her. What about that people are attacking her for basically trashing the women that he was sleeping with? I think that part is valid i think she had tweeted- Is it?! In November she had tweeted every survivor of sexual assault deserves to be heard believed and supported and then she subsequently clarified

07:14 and said, well I'd say that everyone should be believed at first until they're disbelieved based on evidence. But throughout history if you looked she called Monica Lewinsky a narcissistic looney tune Carl Bernstein wrote a book where she had said about Jennifer Flowers that she was trailer trash So there's a history here There is a problem! The bottom line is we can all sit here and say You know? I would never trash the other woman for sleeping with my man because My relationship Is with the man not the woman Guess what? Go Latina on us now Did you hear what she just said? Go Latina on her. Damn! Wow, yeah go and she does. She goes to racist bigots on that show. Yeah, she goes Latina on there. Listen... Guess what? Go Latina on us now. I mean good thing is guess what right? Yo Mio! Mio! Mio! The bottom line is You are going to be upset with the other woman as well because she broke- I don't know why they have songs about it. Yes, she broke girl code. I mean- Girl code?!

08:12 I didn't realize that. Girl code, yeah! That's a Thursday night conference call thing by the way where they confirm the girl code. Brzezinski knew he was married Jennifer Flowers knew he was married Pissed too! The only thing i would defend is if they were kind of- This is shaming these women right here They broke the girl code. They knew, they knew, they knew. Geez! Their house of cardsing it and like she... House of- their house of cardsing it John this is better. They were kind of house of cardsing it and like she knew he I'm sorry? Do you have to take all that? Oh I get it So that's why he started smoking dope again. So you could get through this show.

09:06 She says if she did that then I'm pissed, she says and i'm thinking oh great okay fantastic. Yeah yeah there's a little more cares what you think but it's sexual when they're accusing him of rape and sexual assaults I think for people that takes it to a new level if he was just sleeping around accusing him of that right violating Monica Lewinsky. If I were with the guy and somebody accused him of that? I don't know that I would jump back on those women and here she is supposedly a defender of women and I think people are critical of why did you have to go after those women? Sexual assault is a heavy accusation. He lost his law license, this guy is... How stupid was he that he didn't think Monica Lewinsky was going to tell that two-faced Linda Tripp about it? Come on!

09:54 I I pray to God this does not come up in the next debate, please. I really pray to God. People talking all over each other so you can't understand a word they're saying instead of that show which is so poorly produced that they let four women talk all over each other. Yes, it's...I don't know if that's... To be honest about it especially the first part where I'm gonna go Latina I couldn't hear or understand half of what they're saying there just talking over each other as a cacophony Yeah yeah it is

CHAPTER 04 / 45 Discussion

Presidential Debate Commission, Donald Trump Microphone Issues

The Committee on Presidential Debates confirmed that Donald Trump experienced technical issues with his microphone during the first debate, affecting the audio levels within the hall but not the television broadcast. While Democrats dismissed the impact, technical analysis suggests separate audio pathways for the lapel and podium microphones. The discrepancy may have affected the candidate's performance by distorting the room's acoustic feedback.

committee on presidential debates· donald trump· microphone· audio engineering· dnc

10:54 It is. Yeah, but just the double standard is pretty amazing and remember we're to blame you and I are to blame straight old white guys it's our fault Oh yeah, absolutely. Just want you to make sure you know that...oh! So this came out the Committee on Presidential Debates which as we know is a non-profit organization pretty much run only by Republicans and Democrats which is why we never see any independents or other parties on stage unless something's really kooky like with the lawful rule We used too when League of Women Voters ran the operation They were the first ones that left weren't they? They were like screw this They bailed Yeah they did

11:37 They did. That should be brought up again, I don't know why aren't they out there talking about it? Maybe they are actually. They are! I shouldn't be looking for that... So there was a problem with Trump's microphone which you know was uh the The topic of a lot of scorn like oh, if you blame it on the mic and your just having a bad night. Turns out there was a problem. That's kind of a sly little dig. Oh, his family members couldn't hear him!

12:27 did affect the thousand people who were in the room. That includes Trump's family members, who were sitting up front." Here is what the debate commission just announced in a very short and sweet statement. They say yes there were issues regarding Donald Trump's audio that affected the sound level in the debate hall So again, not the TV broadcasts but it might have affected Trump. It might've put him a little bit off his game. Remember right after the debate he said they gave me a defective mic. He said my mic was defective I wonder was that on purpose? Was that on purpose? Well probably there's no evidence if it was on purpose There is no conspiracy theory here but it does put more pressure on the commission to make sure everything is working well at the next debate in about a week You know let's be honest some people made fun of Trump excuses when he talked about the mic being defective

13:12 A lot of people didn't believe him because up until today there wasn't any evidence. The commission had not confirmed any problem already Democrats are reacting to this, former DNC spokesman Mo Etheley saying this did not affect audio levels in the television audience People watching at home heard every word he said And that was actually his problem. But again, because the commission is acknowledging there was a problem with this mic it does go to show how important every single detail of these debates are right down to the wiring of the microphone on stage. First day, uh, a little technical discussion here I think it's warranted. There was nothing wrong with the microphone. Nothing. It worked fine on television

13:50 So there and you know when you are doing something if you're on a panel, and this has happened to me I'm sure it's happened to you John. You're on a panel whether it's being videoed or not If the room audio is messy then you are thrown off Oh yeah Big time big league But here's the question This has got to go through the same mixer both these mics Thank you so either I mean it just makes no sense. The feed coming in... Do you think that they actually had, well if i were wiring it I would have had separate controls for each mic so It just seems like something like that is in today's world That really shouldn't happen

14:33 Yeah, no. It really shouldn't happen. Now I'm just strange it's very strange that would come out perfectly to the TV audience and then come out half-baked to the other audience when Hillary's mic came fine to the audience there in person well hence the you know I refute that there was something wrong with a microphone that's just a placeholder uh i'd like to know i'd like i'd like to know technically what happened before you continue We have to at least discuss the conspiracy theory about the podiums. Oh, about the length of... The height of podium? No no, the height was predetermined. You mean like the lecterns not the podiums, the lecterns? Yeah, okay. Lecterns. Well I there's a couple things i heard one and this I believe to be true I think that Trump's lectern was a tad too low for him

Hillary Clinton Debate Conspiracy, Podium Lights and Earpieces

Speculation surrounds Hillary Clinton's debate podium, with observers pointing to a secondary light that some claim functioned as a teleprompter. Further theories suggest the use of a hidden earpiece or a mouse-like device to control a screen. Observations of hand movements led to unverified claims regarding potential neurological symptoms, though these remain speculative.

15:25 So I don't know what he was thinking, but if you...I went back and looked at the video and he continues to slouching. He's slouching just...you know there is plenty of evidence going back to Reagan that there's all kinds of shenanigans going on. It's very subtle things that take place to maybe try and throw someone off their game or, you know... He had the slouch to talk about it? He had the slouch and I think that was just... Where are people in his campaign taking a look at this? I'm talking about the odd light that kept showing up on Hillary's podium and not on Trumps. Yeah, well go ahead I saw it i don't think... Well the one I saw was the one they've been showing everyone's been harping on this thing. Hillary has got a secondary light that lights up that people are accusing of being a teleprompter

16:15 on her podium and then it turns on and off by itself because generally speaking, well it's just a light so she could read better. Generally speaking on any of these lecterns you're the one who turns the light on and off because there is usually a switch that doesn't do it by itself. And then they...there was this video I thought was the best which when I have my thoughts about it where appears that she's fiddling with a small mouse Really? To move an arrow on this thing and she keeps looking down at this thing. Well, I gotta tell you though... But both of them had notes. Trump had notes all over the place on the ground everywhere, so yeah then there's also the she had an earpiece in it's all very possible. Very I think it's very possible she had the earpiece too but she is looking down more than he has and kind of get glancing at something which could be like notes on this little screen but then they one guy took and shut did a very slow close up or deep close-up of her hand

17:16 and the hand is dicking around with something, and her forefinger is like bouncing a lot. And I looked at that and said that looks more like Parkinson's than it looks like somebody pulling around with a mouse! Wow what happened? Where's the real John C. Dvorak where'd you come from?! I'm just saying, her finger was bouncing up and down. They claim it's because she is fingering a mouse. Uh-huh. I don't know! I am not convinced of that. It doesn't look like any kind of mouse when i play with the mouse my fingers are not bouncing up and down like that. I hold the mouse and then maybe have a button to push but now I don't push push push push push Right... I still think that needs to be resolved or somebody has to explain that white light

18:03 I don't know. What is the implication? The implication is that she had writers prompting her? Yeah, yeah, that's possible. That would be the implication you got a thing in your ear okay now now there you got him now just don't let him either okay now interrupt interrupter up now I gotta like your bit. Yeah, I just got a note from one of our dudes named Ben The podium microphone was mixed by the facility audio engineer. The lapel microphone was independently mixed by the television audio engineer, so there were two separate audio pathways Okay, so okay. So that would make a lot of sense I know that they both were laughed up which explains the big bump in Hillary's back the wire yeah, oh Yeah, sure transmitter and he probably had his in his vest pocket now And they were both laughed it up and they also had that mic and he and Trump was always Getting close to Mike and poking at it You know the other much, so I guess that could be the one that was uh yeah That was just the room like

Jimmy Kimmel Live, Lie Witness News Trump Supporters

A segment from Jimmy Kimmel Live's "Lie Witness News" featured Donald Trump supporters reacting to fabricated details from his non-existent tax returns. Participants were asked about fictional write-offs, including gold-plated toilets, Siberian tigers for Vladimir Putin, and legal funds for Cecil the Lion's killer. The responses illustrated a high level of candidate loyalty regardless of the absurdity of the claims.

19:06 But again, it doesn't explain why only one of those... because those two might still have to go into the same box where they get mixed. Yeah and we'll never know. We'll never know! It doesn't matter. In fact let me get to this clip because talking about not caring uh-huh This is one of Jimmy Kimmel's you know he does this thing called lie witness news I love the lie witness news yeah so in this case they found a bunch of Trump supporters And they decided to do a... I love this bit. What did they make of this? The way the bit works, and any man on the street bit is always funny because you only choose the ones that are funny all the ones who answered correctly or not funny out! Well in this case there was way too many people that were answering pretty much the same way This lie witness news premise was Donald Trump has released his tax forms

20:06 And there was right there. Anyone who gets that question should say, wait a minute you're working for Kimmel aren't ya? There's no way he did that And they, uh... The questions were based on stuff found on the tax returns. And what would a Trump supporter say to this abomination? Trump supporters we stopped them on the street We told them oh Donald Trump released his taxes today and asked them specific questions about these totally fictional tax returns in another edition of Lie Witness News So as you know, Donald Trump releases tax returns today. Was it legitimate for Donald Trump to write off all those marriages over the years as quote entertainment? Wow good question. It was entertaining I mean to him it's a tax write-off again we're going back to your IRS everything that salupo if it's there you're gonna utilize it what do you think about how Donald Trump listed his primary occupation on this tax forms as farmer

21:11 I mean, if he does own farms and he's invested in farms then that's... As an entrepreneur you can necessarily say what you need to say especially for tax purposes. Obviously the big shock is that Donald Trumps net worth is only $42,000 rather than 10 billion. Does that change your view on him? Never! I know he's gonna do it and I know he's gonna do the right thing so.. Was it reasonable of him to assert that he did have ten billion dollars even though we only had 42 thousand? We all kind of, you know, fib a little bit but you know what? The Donald Trump Foundation donated $100,000 to the legal defense fund for the dentist who killed Cecil the Lion. Is that okay? I would think that would be a wonderful thing for him to do because I imagine the dentist couldn't afford it himself What did you think about how Donald Trump donated $50,000 to Jared Fogle's Legal Defense Fund Oh my God Well

22:06 People donate large sums of cash to legal funds every day, so if it's to help somebody that's what it is for. Even disgraced subway spokesman Jared Fogle deserves his day in court? Everybody deserves their day in court Were you surprised to see Donald Trump wrote off nearly $100,000 for breast pumps for various members of his family? No I'm not surprised I don't know. He's, uh... You know? He wants everybody to be big and beautiful beside him so you know Oh i'm sorry! You're under the impression that there are breast pumps to increase their bust size Yes

22:47 gold-plating a toilet is, quote, business expense. If I was showing off for my friends or if I needed it and had the funds to do it then yes, I would probably do it. Were you surprised that Donald Trump spent $38,000 on that Siberian Tiger for Vladimir Putin's birthday? Yeah! No, not surprised and I would think he wanted to gain friends in the business world What did you think about how Donald Trump is technically leasing his wife Melania to the campaign Is it okay that he found out loophole Every person's leaseable. Well, since we know how the bit works I'm going to give you a borderline for that one. But that shows you that...that A lot of people don't care at all! At all! They make up their minds about something and they're gonna be all in there You mean either one of these two candidates they could bring out notes of corruption It has to be done in a

The Economist, Globalism and Hillary Clinton Endorsement

The Economist magazine has taken a staunchly pro-Hillary Clinton stance, framing her as a champion of globalism and open borders. Critics argue the publication has shifted toward a political platform that favors a "New World Order" over national sovereignty. The editorial shift is attributed to new leadership at the magazine, prioritizing link-bait style political content.

the economist· hillary clinton· globalism· new world order· sovereignty

23:48 In a huge way, that's why I think it'll be interesting to see what happens with the Assange. Yeah, anti-hillary release which is coming this month. Yeah? Oh yeah It'll be the same thing it'd be almost exact same well You know this is water under the bridge as well you I don't believe it now She's a good person and Trump sucks. You know kind of thing. Yeah, I don't think ever before we've seen mainstream media and with that also I include print Now all unanimously go against a candidate. We had USA Today's editorial board, they claim first time in their 36 year history they have ever even

24:28 I guess had an opinion. Trump unfit for the presidency, The Economist have you seen The New Economist? Well the economist has been doing this actually for a while ever since the new editor. Yeah yeah the new editor and new woman editor i might add just to show her natural slant toward Hillary she has been...I think she's ruined the magazine though because she's turned it into a link bait kind of operation. A political platform. But what does she say? Or what did they say? Why They're Wrong is the title. And that is the cover story. Who's wrong? Why They Are Wrong About Hillary That's the whole idea, why they're wrong Actually it flows into globalization critics saying benefits only the elite in fact a less open world would hurt them poor most of all

25:25 And they make a case for globalism that is pro-Hillary. Yes, Hillary is a globalist. We might as well get that out of the way. She wants open borders because the best borders are no borders and then everyone can just mix it up and then we can...they can be all ruled by a central location—the New World Order. Yeah. And that's what The Economist has become. It's always been somewhat little bit globalist But it's like really globalist now with this new woman. She wants to be, she's all in on the New World Order we should lose our sovereignty doesn't mean anything is not important anymore hey it said it's a 21st century what are we doing with these old ideas right nationalism is bad all that stuff It's all in there yeah and talking about well you mentioned one other for the first time this was

Global Citizen Festival, Celebrity Elitism and Priyanka Chopra

The Global Citizen Festival in New York is criticized as an elite gathering that focuses on "affecting lives" through symbolic gestures rather than direct aid. Actress Priyanka Chopra appeared on Kelly Ripa's show discussing the perks of her side-stage access to Metallica. The event featured a "big board" claiming to affect over 132 million lives through commitments like a $100 million fund for toilets.

26:15 It's kind of meaningless, but still. The entire cast of Star Trek all actors current and previous wrote an open letter Yeah I'd like to see the open letter from the crews From...from the crews?

It was the football player who went on to do uh 64th billion dollar pyramid and good morning America right

Which I don't understand why she couldn't get that removed and sound more like an American but she likes this voice

27:51 And so she was on, we're talking about elites here. And if you just listen to this first of all she's going on and on about that event that you discussed in the last show or the show before that global citizen thing. Ah! The concert, the Global Citizen Project yeah. Yeah now if you want to hear an elite and where they're coming from and how casual it is...and Kelly would be in that same category as elite that thinks they can get more than you. Play this clip, this is Chopra Elite. Great to see. You know Global Citizen's such an amazing initiative anyway. We all sit down and we're always complaining about how do we change? The government's not changing this for us or people are not changing this for us. This initiative says that you do something about it empower

28:40 you know to get on the website you do things and there was about 60 to 70 thousand people that would earn their tickets yeah it was so awesome to see plus I had the best seats in the house because i was sitting on the wings and watching Metallica sing like in front of me okay you could sit right there Yeah, please damn you're so right.

They paid everybody trust me Metallica doesn't show up for globalism although they're all in because wow scruples no Now we know that Rihanna is of course, she is the mistress of the Illuminati so that's normal.

A discussion of high-end corporate hospitality centers on Formula One racing, comparing the Austin, Texas circuit to Monaco. Plans are mentioned regarding obtaining paddock passes for the upcoming race, which typically require personal approval from F1 executive Bernie Ecclestone. The sport is characterized as a networking hub for global financial elites.

31:23 It's the banking community, financial world. That's what they do. It's like Formula One. What's great about Formula One? Well you buy a sponsorship and then you take your clients all over the world to the races put some hookers on them and get signed the deal. And seriously that is what it's about same for PGA all of that stuff. That's what it really runs on Well, we're not getting invited that's for sure. Actually... actually You got invited? Yes! Are you gonna go to Paris or Monaco for the Monaco race? Dude Austin Texas hosts Formula One every year Yeah it's not the same as being hauled off to Monaco No but if everything goes according to plan will have paddock passes which is kind of cool

32:17 Yeah. It has to be personally approved by Ecclestone himself, huh? Yeah I know well you got a big name he says i remember that yeah I don't think so um okay have a few more things that uh I wanted to bring up when we're talking about American politics oh this was This was interesting on Morning Joe, and I still wonder how can they keep those guys on MSNBC? They really go against the narrative and the messaging all the time. Seriously all of the time! So there was a cover article in Esquire magazine... And the editor of Esquire he was on Morning Joe with Mika and what's his name? Chuck Charles Scarborough

Esquire Magazine, Border Security and Hispanic Voters

An Esquire magazine journalist's report from the Texas-Mexico border suggests that local residents, including Hispanic citizens, largely support the construction of a border wall. The report claims that legal Hispanic immigrants often feel illegal immigration is unfair to those who followed the law. This sentiment highlights a potential "silent" voting bloc for Donald Trump that is not reflected in mainstream polling.

esquire magazine· morning joe· mexico border· immigration· hispanic voters

33:10 And they sent a journalist, which they even say is a liberal journalist to go talk to people along the border. And I believe this is the Texas Mexico border hilarity ensued. This is pretty shocking stuff So you send a liberal journalist down there? He comes back saying Trump is right, that's right so we said you gotta go down there with no preconceived notions Right just an empty notebook Go to my former homestay where am I this is the enter from escort and walk the border drive the border 800 miles and talk to whoever you see and let them tell us what they think about what's really going on whether we need a wall

33:47 in fact, instead of hearing it from the debate stage. Let's hear it from the people who are doing it." And the people say build a wall? They said build the wall they said two things whether Hispanic Anglo Democrat Republican uncommitted clueless whatever they said we want to wall and yet we wanted to be married with some compassion towards the people that were trying to keep them jumping over the barrier Here is another surprising thing from the article he said Hispanics were less sympathetic towards illegal immigrants than white. So I think that there's a lot of interesting things there but one thing i think is that most of those Hispanics are first generation and they see it as unfair that they came over here, in the legal way became citizens and now their having to compete for jobs with those who are coming across the border on daily basis right so I think they feel as one guy says let them get in line right? Yeah. I think the Anglos

34:37 have most for the most part probably grown up in the tradition of the West which is a place of welcoming immigrants through its history and their attitude is more that that should be an honored thing today I think they also think oddly that you know, if the laws are enforced compassion will prevail. I found that to be very interesting and it's kind of what my informal, you know testing already showed here in Texas. Yeah a lot of people Trump is one of them that believes that the established Hispanics in the United States That are legal will vote for him I think they'll be badgered into not voting for him but once you're in the back end up in the little booth there You can do whatever you want And I think a lot of people

35:26 are the one that would never admit to voting for Trump, which is the big variable that people or Democrats in particular quite fearful of. This kind of backlit this kinda underlying well I'm not gonna admit it but i'm gonna vote for this guy because I don't like the way things are going right? It's possible! Well everything points toward that nothing makes any difference except the things that people really care about we'll see We'll see. But I just thought it was an interesting data point for us and did you see the, and I think this was a Trump campaign thing that not in an official commercial they put out but something they put out on Instagram about the low tea

Low Testosterone Political Ad, Dr. Darryl Morris

Dr. Darryl Morris of Fort Myers, Florida, released a humorous radio advertisement offering free testosterone tests to men considering voting for Hillary Clinton. The ad suggests that "Low T" might affect a man's ability to focus or think clearly. While the doctor admits the ad is a promotional stunt for his practice, it sparked debate over sexism and political marketing.

testosterone· darryl morris· hillary clinton· florida· political humor

36:12 Did you see this? No. The doctor in Florida who made the news, this was on NBC actually Most are not aware of the negative effects low T can have on your mental state For instance your ability to focus and think clearly Dr Darryl Morris of Morris Medical & Weight Loss Center in Fort Myers issuing a warning to all men regarding their testosterone levels And if you're thinking about voting for Hillary Clinton he has a message specifically for you For any guys out there that are thinking about voting for Hillary I want to offer you a free testosterone test and let's see if we can help. I honestly feel like he is the pinhead for saying that. I think it is pretty hilarious. I talked to Morris, he says he quote leans right and just wanted to make humorous political statement while promoting his practice at Hillary Clinton office opening in Dunbar tonight some people were talking about that radio commercial The person who really needs some testosterone probably after Monday night performance would be

37:07 It's Donald Trump. Just because a man is voting for a woman, there shouldn't be anything wrong with it. It's sexist. Morris tells me he doesn't want to upset anyone He says he already receives calls from both Republicans and Democrats saying it's funny You should have mixed business in politics Dad I don't know...I thought it was funny that was in the report and like I'll just leave that in Yeah, low T. Low T that's testosterone for those of you did the load two things been going around right it's a You can get this stuff called I need some of it right now because you can't remember the name of it. But we talked about that androgel, and that's it. Androgen androgel. And you spray it on yourself in the next thing you know, your you're a woman. You're all pumped. No, they got this. The other stuff. Sorry. It's your old jacked up Jack. Yeah. Yay for testosterone. Mm hmm. Especially with the cream and gel

CHAPTER 12 / 45 Discussion

Hillary Clinton Health, Phlegm and Vocal Strain

During a rally in Florida, Hillary Clinton appeared to struggle with vocal strain, which some observers linked to her ongoing "coughing" issues. The candidate was seen using lozenges and "powering through" a raspy voice while discussing her Methodist faith. The segment analyzes her vocal projection techniques used to overcome physical congestion during the campaign.

hillary clinton· health· coughing fit· methodist faith· florida rally

38:07 Yeah, oh so Hillary was in... where was she? I think she was in Florida at a rally and she had another not really a coughing issue but it's...I think I discovered a little thing here that you know it's either the swallowing or the breathing or something bad. It starts and then she immediately pops one of those green lozenges But what I've noticed, and you'll hear it in this clip. She's not really a coughing fit but she goes into that can't talk mode What i've noticed is that one and this may be Where this is coming from to get through it to power through it? You know she likes powering through

38:50 She actually forces her voice, forces her entire projection to kind of break through some wall or whatever is going on inside. And that's how she gets... The Wall Of Phlegm! The Wall Of Phlegm exactly I'm trying to end the campaign focusing on issues really close to my heart and this is one of them Thank you Now listen how she powers through it

39:31 You know, for me service is really all about fulfilling the instruction of my Methodist faith and you can see part of the creed I like to follow behind me. Do all the good you can in all the ways you can in all the places you can at all the times you can to all the people you can as long as ever you can! Did you hear it though? You hear how she does that Yeah, she got the phlegm out. And she powers through it and then it was actually beautiful to watch because you can hear her getting there like oh I can do it! Let me tell you we have this...I have times when my voice kind of gives out and you power through it yeah just kind of go through that. Your voice goes high? Yeah, I don't know why it does that either It's very odd. That is pretty funny. It's only funny because it's actually not completely out of context

CHAPTER 13 / 45 Discussion

Washington Free Beacon, Hillary Clinton Misery Mashup

The Washington Free Beacon produced a video montage interspersing clips of Hillary Clinton's aggressive campaign speeches with scenes of Kathy Bates from the film Misery. The edit focuses on Clinton's "Why aren't I 50 points ahead?" remark, drawing a satirical comparison between the candidate's public persona and the Stephen King character.

washington free beacon· hillary clinton· kathy bates· misery· stephen king

40:23 So it's not so noticeable as you think, but it is when you point it out to yourself because you always make mention of it when you do it. Why did my voice go high? I have no idea! Yes exactly. Um...so Washington Free Beacon put together a very interesting this is kind of how I came full circle on this uh they did a montage of the Hillary why am I not 50 points behind which is one of those yelling episodes which she could be doing for a number of reasons Actually, what I think about this clip is it's pretty bad. It's pretty misogynistic because it kind of implies crazy ass women talk like this and they mixed it with Kathy Bates from a what was the movie? Um, your biggest fan. What was that movie? Oh right. Uh, what does the name of that thing with uh, Kathy Bayless. It's actually Stephen King wrote. Yes. It's Stephen King. Yeah. Um, misery, misery, misery, misery, misery. So they mixed up to this little mix of those two and

41:20 Wow, what do you think I say when I go to the feed store in town? Oh now Wally give me a bag of that effing pig feed and ten pounds at bitchly cow corn Now having said all this why aren't I 50 points ahead you might ask This isn't what happened last week. Have you all got amnesia? The choice for working families has never been clearer I stood right up and started shouting, I need your help to get Donald Trump's record out to everybody They just cheated us! This is it Nobody should be fooled Of the cock-a-doodie car Pretty down close That was good Yeah I give you a borderline for that I'll take the border line from ya

CHAPTER 14 / 45 Discussion

Eggo Waffle Recall, Media Slogans and Listeria

Kellogg's issued a major recall of Eggo waffles due to potential Listeria contamination. The news coverage was notable for the near-unanimous use of the "L'Eggo my Eggo" slogan by various media outlets. This phenomenon is compared to the "Hit the Road Jack" puns used when Apple removed the headphone jack from the iPhone.

eggo waffles· kellogg's· product recall· listeria· media puns

42:05 You would have gotten Clip of the Day if it had been longer. Really? I thought she was doing, you know... It was getting there and then it just kind of ended! Yeah. I was hoping for more. These medleys come and go this one is kinda baffling me that happened recently is that Ago's waffles were recalled. Oh damn, I missed this The big Eggo recall. The big Eggo recall and so they, this was coming... I don't know who exactly comes out with it first. An Eggo is an American breakfast food which consists of pretty much no food. It's a waffle? It looks like a small square waffle that you toast in the toaster. Yeah it's a formerly soggy piece of cardboard that you put in the toaster

42:55 And they have a slogan, Lego my Eggo because when these things pop up the whole family just is fighting for this piece of formerly wet cardboard. So they recalled the bunch because they were contaminated with plastic or rat poop I don't know what else. Any other fine product but... Here is a medley of Lego my ego in regards to this story that I don't know how this became such a popular thing to say from every single news source and it's not just one or two. So somebody has to be behind us, and I think it's the Ego Company themselves trying to get people at least think positively Let go of your ego.

43:57 Yeah, yeah. Never underestimate the creativity of the American news media. They're great I said same thing when the iPhone came out. It was the same thing hit the road Jack Apple says, Hit the Road Jack! Hit The Road Jack! Hit The Road Jack! When they refused to write to put that there's no jack in it. There is no jack there. Let me see this is what we're up against. Yeah, I know pretty sad OK two more things here

CHAPTER 15 / 45 Discussion

New York Times, Donald Trump 1995 Tax Returns

The New York Times published leaked 1995 tax documents showing Donald Trump declared a $916 million loss. This substantial "net operating loss" could have legally allowed him to avoid paying federal income tax for up to 18 years. The reporting is framed as a strategic move by the Times to portray Trump as a failed businessman who avoids contributing to public infrastructure.

new york times· donald trump· tax returns· net operating loss· warren buffett

44:49 Oh yes, New York Times. Speaking of mainstream media...New York Times is really going all out! I know what are they afraid of? Well they have stated publicly that they're afraid of Donald Trump becoming a president the president They're very afraid of that so they are doing everything they can to show you that the guy is dangerous, no good. He's horrible." And the latest thing they did is they published his... I don't know how they got it but they published his tax return, his tax filing for 1995 and he took a huge loss and then oh my god! A billion? Yeah almost a billion dollars and they even made a little video about it on The New York Times website. Mrs Clinton was the subject Donald Trump has declined to release any of his tax records

45:45 making him the first presidential candidate since 1972 to do so. The New York Times recently obtained documents that provide new insight into the personal finances of the Republican nominee for president. The document showed that he declared a $916 million loss on his 1995 income tax returns, The loss was derived from the financial wreckage he left behind in the early 1990s through mismanagement of his casinos, airline business and ill-timed purchase of the Plaza Hotel in Manhattan.

46:20 The loss is so substantial that it could have allowed him to legally avoid paying federal income tax for up to 18 years, three years back and 15 forward. This is called a net operating loss — a lucrative tax deduction that occurs when business expenses exceed gross income. And those deductions can be applied for almost two decades Based solely on the 1995 tax returns, Trump theoretically could have avoided paying taxes until 2010. I love the music it just really adds... What is this point to music? This is like a piece of propaganda! You think?! And by the way people do that all the time we did this set- We did that with our- The deli we had in Port Angeles Yeah We took a beating and ended but you can't just write it off

47:11 You have to write it off over time. That's kind of the interesting thing about it. Of course, what's I don't know just the way this is set up and I understand why people who do not like Trump and they're like this guy's an a-hole what a horrible man he's stealing from our schools and from our roads you didn't pay any taxes um you know not to mention I don't know companies we love like Uber Hey man, Uber is just taking money. Making no profit! No taxes whatsoever! Just taking losses. Warren Buffett pays less taxes than his secretary That was the meme All this would be solved by a wealth tax but we can talk about that some other time I heard a great, great... We'll call it conspiracy theory but its actually from one of- You probably know him Do you know Andy Kaufman? Did you ever meet him

CHAPTER 16 / 45 Discussion

Andy Kaufman Conspiracy, Bob Zmuda and Donald Trump

A bizarre conspiracy theory promoted by Bob Zmuda suggests that comedian Andy Kaufman faked his death in the 1980s and has returned as Donald Trump. Zmuda, a longtime friend of Kaufman, claims the current political campaign is the ultimate performance art piece. The theory was recently featured in the New York Post.

andy kaufman· bob zmuda· donald trump· comedy· conspiracy theory

48:04 Andy Kaufman the comic? The comic, yeah. The comedian I never met him though. I don't know if Mimi has. She may have So a longtime friend of Andy Kaufmann his name is... what is his name Bob Zmuda He has come out and he said Andy Kaufman was a totally insane comic. He wasn't on, he was on Saturday Night Live. He did crazy stuff like he would do a standup show at Carnegie Hall and then after the show we take everyone out for cookies and milk the whole theater all of Carnegie Hall when they bought him all cookies and milk in the middle of the night Manhattan. He did crazy stuff And then he died in 19... what is it? What's that mid 80s I think

48:49 87, yeah. 86-87 and according to Zmuda... And he has documented this and he wrote it down you know he's got all kinds of proof He says Kaufman faked his death which has been something that people have thought about for a long long time But here is the cool part Zmuda says he thinks that he's come back as Donald Trump and we just don't know it And he's going to reveal that soon. Yeah One of the better ones that was in the New York Post. Those guys will do anything I guess really fantastic now The final clip I have is from judicial watch judicial watch are the ones actually responsible For the most recent Friday release of emails actually two Fridays in a row an extra 3,000 they have been really been going after Hillary Clinton for a long time. I don't even know who's behind these guys but I'm sure it's Republicans and They are really

CHAPTER 17 / 45 Discussion

Judicial Watch, FBI Investigation of Hillary Clinton

Judicial Watch's Director of Investigations criticized FBI Director James Comey's handling of the Hillary Clinton email probe, specifically the focus on "intent." The organization argues that Title 18 Section 793F regarding the mishandling of national defense information does not require proof of intent. They maintain that the presence of 22 top-secret messages on an unsecured server constitutes a clear violation of the law.

judicial watch· fbi· james comey· national security· classified information

49:49 I'm guessing more libertarians because I'm not sure that half the Republicans are all in on Trump to the point where the Judicial Watch people are. They're very aggressive. Yeah, no, I don't think they're all in on Trump. I agree. I don't think they are at all. So they released a video of a couple of the Judicial Watch directors Actually, this is the Judicial Watch Director of Investigations about the investigation performed by the FBI. And as we know, Director Comey came out and said Secretary Clinton did you know there's nothing here that we should go and prosecute? Yes very careless but not extreme carelessness so

50:29 And I think you and I both felt that you probably did the right thing. If you can, you want to avoid this kind of problem in a general election. Now that I hear this next bit, I'm thinking Comey also just didn't want to wake up dead one day with two to the head and gun in the left hand. Mrs. Clinton was the subject of a national security crime investigation This wasn't a security review. It wasn't an argument over classification levels. This was a violation of Title 18 of the U.S. Code, Section 793F, mishandling national defense information." And contrary to what the American public has been told repeatedly, intent is not an element of the crime. There's no requirement to prove any sort of intent at all.

51:13 And so, when Mr. Comey talks about intent or he wasn't able to prove it or there was no sort of specification that showed an intent, it's a red herring. It's a false argument. It isn't the requirement of the crime. So we know from The Inspector General of the Intelligence Community that 22 top-secret SCI—which is Sensitive Compartmental Information—it's a special category of intelligence collection—22 top-secret messages or emails went across Mrs. Clinton's unsecured server? It is a fact, it is the finding of the inspector general that is the root to the referral to the Department of Justice that caused them to begin this inquiry The fact that has occurred puts United States at grave risk That is the definition really for compromising top secret material

52:05 That is the issue that is really the focal point of what the FBI should have been looking at. And it's a yes or no question It's not, what did you intend? It's not how did you feel about it. It's not what were you really trying to accomplish. It is a yes or no question. Did this event occur? Yes or No And if it did occur who was responsible for it What is the proximate cause of this event occurring and if you walk back to find the person that made it happen That's whose prosecuted And this whole intent thing is nonsense. Mr. Comey is lying to the American public when he does, goes down that path. There you go. Yep. It's rigged? Yes it is! It's completely rigged absolutely. But why do they want a rig for a globalist like Hillary Clinton I mean why did she even get nominated

CHAPTER 18 / 45 Discussion

Newsweek, Donald Trump Cuba Embargo Allegations

A Newsweek investigation alleged that a Donald Trump-owned company violated the U.S. embargo against Cuba in 1998 by spending $68,000 on a secret business trip. Hillary Clinton used the report to attack Trump's credibility, while critics argue the story was timed to distract from Clinton's own controversies. The report claims Trump executives attempted to disguise the expenditures as charitable.

newsweek· rachel maddow· cuba· embargo· fidel castro

53:06 Well, she's the perfect globalist leader. Well she's a perfect globalist leader but she's got so many flaws that you could find there must be some other good globalists in that in the entire Democrat party which tends to be globalist as a party I mean that's what you have with this woman Chopra who came on and talked about this global citizen I mean every day the word global comes in a lot yeah So I don't know, it's just a lot of it doesn't quite make sense. Oh dude she is the perfect global citizen Hillary Clinton is outstanding. The latest thing is to go after Trump on this on some Cuban thing which I think is pretty lame. This was launched by...I saw this launch

53:48 It was the day after the first after the debate and it was Rachel Maddow launched it. It was a Newsweek article And you know that oh we got to exclusive, and that's kind of how it was launched into and I was I was recording I'm like Oh this would be great. It was kind of like no It was dumb well here's one of the reports mmm. I'm looking for which one is this Trump in Cuba yeah In other campaign news, Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton said Thursday Donald Trump appeared to violate U.S. law by attempting to do business in Cuba. Clinton was referring to an investigation by Newsweek that revealed a Trump company violated the US embargo against Cuba in 1998 spending at least $68,000 during a secret business trip to Havana

54:29 The investigation also reveals that Trump had knowledge of top executives working to cover up the illegal expenditures. He then went on to write an op-ed piece that attacked Fidel Castro. We'll have more on Donald Trump and the Cuban embargo later in the broadcast. No, it should be Barcast. Later in the barcast. The tact Fidel Castro will have more on Donald Trump and the Cuban embargo later in the barcast. In the barcast! I'm in the bar... Judy? I'm in the bar... in the barcast If we were to advise both of these candidates, clearly none of this stuff makes any difference for people who are already voting for each candidate. You've proven that with LieWitness News

55:18 So you're not changing anything that way. I mean, we're just hammering the American public into submission. To me it seems at this point if either candidate during maybe the next debate every single attack would just be whatever fine i'm a douchebag here's what i'm gonna do x y and z and Hillary can do this and Donald Trump can do this. I think whoever would just take that high road boom right away I think he'd shut the other person down very quickly. Yeah, I can't disagree with that. I think Trump tried to do that a couple of times in the... He was being caught off guard by these trigger words as well. Well he's an idiot! How? Seriously?! Apparently he is an idiot in hindsight listening to that debate and of course you know what bugs me the most

CHAPTER 19 / 45 Discussion

Catherine Herridge Report, FBI Immunity Agreements

Fox News reporter Catherine Herridge covered congressional hearings where FBI Director James Comey was grilled by Trey Gowdy over immunity agreements. The report highlighted that Cheryl Mills and Justin Cooper received immunity despite evidence suggesting they may have misled investigators about the timing of their knowledge regarding Clinton's private server.

catherine herridge· fbi· cheryl mills· immunity· trey gowdy

56:12 constant harping on how he's gonna wipe the floor with Hillary in a debate. Yeah, and it just blew that was just like what where's the wiping the floor here? Yeah so um oh I got it you talk about the FBI they got one more here this was a very interesting clip then this is Harridge ah The Pixie Girl the pixie girl CIA pixie girl who Fox News was on Talking about the FBI in this clip and she had the weirdest look on her face after this was over, after she gave her little spiel as if she you know. She knows that it actually matches very well the CIA versus the FBI in our analysis or meta-analysis

56:58 But she had this look on her face like she didn't like to do. It was the most sad look I've ever seen this woman display at the end of her report, they rolled off of her and faded away from her but the look on her face was like You know, I killed her firstborn or something. It was very strange. Sort of strongly worded statement he made in response to Chairman Trey Gowdy did it seem to you that he'd won the skeptics over? Or less so? I felt throughout that hearing the more Director Comey talks about the investigation and justification for his decision not to recommend criminal charges

57:35 the less he convinces these Republicans and other critics. All of these new details about the immunity agreements, that apparently two people who got them lied to the FBI and kept those agreements? That just never happens! Oh you mean people... usually you lose your immunity and then the immunity is conditioned on true testimony right? That's correct they lie here for example Mills said to the FBI she only learned about the server after they left the State Department in 2013 But an email was introduced at the hearing today that showed she was emailing Bill Clinton's aide, Justin Cooper asking about whether the server was running three years earlier. Oh my goodness. Catherine thank you very much. You're welcome Now why do you know first of all we believe that she is read in and she is a very good foot soldier for CIA Why do you think she had that poopy look on her face after that?

58:27 I have no idea. Yeah, I watched it and it didn't make sense maybe because she didn't feel like throwing Comey under the bus or maybe she knew him or there was some personal thing going on but she was actually saddened by the fact that the FBI has gone so far off the rails that they would... She was very concerned about this. There were two people out and this is taken in the second round of hearings. Cheryl Mills that Cheryl Mills and some other guy had gotten... Yeah, that was Cooper. He got the immunity. Cooper? They got immunity for no apparent reason! And Comey was grilled on this. Why should you give him immunity for what were they gonna- What were you expecting to get out of that he couldn't answer well I have a clip where he does answer okay yeah here is director FBI Comey who authorized granting Cheryl Mill's immunity now

59:18 Now Cheryl Mills has always been a close confidant, staff member of Secretary Clinton as well as her personal lawyer. Personal lawyer? I'm sorry who authorized granting Cheryl Mills immunity it's a decision made by the Department Justice i don't know at what level inside in our investigations anything any kind of immunity comes from the prosecutors not the investigators okay did she request immunity I don't know for sure what the negotiations involved. I believe her lawyer asked for active production immunity with respect to the production of her laptop, that's my understanding but again the FBI wasn't part of those conversations So there is Comey saying hey man that was you know... That's not me! That's a woman who visited he husband on an airplane

CHAPTER 20 / 45 Discussion

James Comey Testimony, Cheryl Mills Laptop Immunity

FBI Director James Comey testified that the Department of Justice granted "act of production" immunity to Cheryl Mills specifically to obtain her laptop. Comey defended the decision as a necessary tool to secure evidence, despite Mills serving as Clinton's personal lawyer during the investigation. Critics argue the year-long delay allowed for the potential destruction of evidence, likening it to IRS data loss scandals.

58:27 I have no idea. Yeah, I watched it and it didn't make sense maybe because she didn't feel like throwing Comey under the bus or maybe she knew him or there was some personal thing going on but she was actually saddened by the fact that the FBI has gone so far off the rails that they would... She was very concerned about this. There were two people out and this is taken in the second round of hearings. Cheryl Mills that Cheryl Mills and some other guy had gotten... Yeah, that was Cooper. He got the immunity. Cooper? They got immunity for no apparent reason! And Comey was grilled on this. Why should you give him immunity for what were they gonna- What were you expecting to get out of that he couldn't answer well I have a clip where he does answer okay yeah here is director FBI Comey who authorized granting Cheryl Mill's immunity now

59:18 Now Cheryl Mills has always been a close confidant, staff member of Secretary Clinton as well as her personal lawyer. Personal lawyer? I'm sorry who authorized granting Cheryl Mills immunity it's a decision made by the Department Justice i don't know at what level inside in our investigations anything any kind of immunity comes from the prosecutors not the investigators okay did she request immunity I don't know for sure what the negotiations involved. I believe her lawyer asked for active production immunity with respect to the production of her laptop, that's my understanding but again the FBI wasn't part of those conversations So there is Comey saying hey man that was you know... That's not me! That's a woman who visited he husband on an airplane

1:00:06 That's who gave the immunity and it turns out it wasn't even immunity for her. Director Comey, why was Cheryl Mills granted immunity in the classified data investigation for Secretary Clinton? The Department of Justice Wrote a letter to Cheryl Mills's lawyer That gave her what's called active production immunity for the production of her laptop So it's not personal immunity for her It was that the immunity was we will not use with the Department Justice directly against you anything We were cover on this laptop fairly common tool in criminal investigations, but that's what it was and the judgment was

1:00:44 The FBI's judgment was we need to get to that laptop. We need to see what it is this investigation has been going on for a year and This was in the negotiation, a tool that her lawyer asked for that the Department of Justice granted so we could get the laptop Thanks. Was she then Secretary Clinton's lawyer? in Secretary Clinton's interview with you, and is that irregular? Our understanding was she was acting as a member of her legal team. Not irregular—not the FBI's job to decide who can be in a voluntary interview. They're ethical cannons that govern lawyers but we don't police that. If it was a judicial proceeding, the judge might police who could be there representing an individual but that's not something that we could do anything about in a voluntary interview I find that to be interesting from a legal perspective

1:01:30 I found the whole thing to be interesting and the laptop thing was also interesting because they said that they started this investigation a year before. And say you had a laptop, you, that had been used in some compromised way with servers, emails, emails just stored on it and all of rest of it... You have a year to clean this thing up? Yeah Why would you want to get immunity unless you wanted it for some other reason? Because there's not going... In fact, they said this in the hearings. There was nothing on the laptop worth of crap that wasn't anything there. There is no their-there! Exactly. There is no their-their So it seems as though you would have I mean if it was me, I would have pulled a hard disk out of the laptop put a new operating system on and then started doing business as usual That's called obstruction of justice John

1:02:24 That's exactly what Hillary is in trouble for. She is not in trouble. Oh, okay yeah you're right what am I saying? What are you kidding me and that was okay well she did that then she pulled say you pull the disc out it was you make the you know they failed How's this obstruction of justice? My hard disk died. What am I supposed to do about it?" So, I put a new one in and put a new operating system on it kept doing business on the laptop. Congratulations. Congratulations you now work for the IRS that's exactly their excuse. Oh shit! I threw the drive out. I don't know if any emails are running come on yeah there you go. This is a new...I mean the cloud is going to mitigate a lot of this

CHAPTER 21 / 45 Discussion

CIA Cloud Migration, Episode 864 Artwork

The CIA has reportedly completed a transition to cloud-based data storage, a move met with skepticism regarding security against Russian and Chinese hacking. Additionally, the hosts acknowledge the artwork for episode 864, titled "Putin Popularity Poll," created by artist Cesium 137, which featured a detailed No Agenda codebook design.

1:03:10 And I think that's going to make a huge difference in the future because people don't know what the hell they're doing. And, and I'll tell you that CIA just completed their assessment and they are going all cloud CIA is going all clouds nuts isn't it crazy? It's totally crazy. Why don't you just send this stuff directly to the Russians Oh, with the Chinas China, China, Chinese sent us directly to the Chinese why even bother with the clouds Just send it straight to China And with that...

CHAPTER 23 / 45 Discussion

Oikophobia, The Aversion to Home Surroundings

The term "oikophobia" is introduced to describe an irrational aversion to one's own home or country, often seen among globalist elites. The concept is applied to Americans who idealize European cultures, such as the bicycle culture of Amsterdam, while disparaging their own national sovereignty. The hosts argue this mindset drives the push for a "New World Order."

oikophobia· globalism· amsterdam· nationalism· elitism

1:10:35 Okay, well that's on word short. Yeah go to Dvorak org slash na for the next show it would be appreciated yes and that show will be on Thursday and Oh That'll be the show then I'm in New York no No, I mean, I'm sorry here And they leave right after the show so we're gonna after this start a little bit early if that's okay with you yeah? I think so Just so I can because we have like five o'clock flight or something. So got a boogie on out of here Well, thank you very much to well now we have course in the an executive producer Was bumped up and we have our two associate executive producers

1:11:13 No, no just one. It's one and one well I think you know what that means we can do better next show Thursday please remember us And of course you can always do some important work by going out there maybe propagating our formula Our formula is this We go out, we hit people in the mouth Hey citizens Shut up! Shut up slave Have a new word Got a new word for us And I think this word perfectly fits the elite in

1:11:55 in our country. And when I say... The douchebag elites, there's lots of elites but the douche bag elites who really...I don't think they hate America but they really don't like what's going on here They don't like American sovereignty Yeah and these let's call them the globalists that's easier just to call them the globalists I think have a better word for me you know so we have xenophobe which is a great one you know you're afraid of other You're and in fact when it's a phobia, it is an irrational fear to be. OK 112 thank you here's the word which I think sums them up perfectly oikophobia they are oikophobes

1:12:46 I've heard that discussed before and i've already forgotten the meaning because as soon as they hear the word, I think of pigs. Not oinkophobia! Oikophobia is an aversion to home surroundings And it apparently... As I discovered it has been used in political situations particularly in the United Kingdom's of Gitmo Nation. You know this, I like this word because it's like the grass is greener on the other side of the fence that reflects that and it reflects the commentary oh or should be more like the Europeans because people go to Europe and they say look at Amsterdam everyone's on a bicycle and they have special bike lanes and they actually use them

1:13:36 which you step into when you get rammed. Of course, it's been their culture for 700 years but yeah minor point in minor point oikophobia and I like it. I did as I stumbled upon this word and think Yeah that's a good word oikophobe You're an oikophobe man! You hate the country because you hate home? Yeah It's irrational fear of at home the way it is Oikophobia So I think we'll keep that one in. Big, big news... We already alluded to it Deutsche Bank is in deep, deep trouble They're rating at this point I think is lower than Lehman before they collapsed In fact their cash on hand is lower than Lehman had before they collapsed

CHAPTER 24 / 45 Discussion

Deutsche Bank Crisis, New York Banker Report

Reports indicate Deutsche Bank is facing a liquidity crisis with cash reserves lower than those of Lehman Brothers prior to its collapse. A cryptic report from a former New York banker suggests that while American bank leaders like Jamie Dimon and Lloyd Blankfein are treated with respect, European and "piggy bank" institutions are struggling.

deutsche bank· lehman brothers· jamie dimon· lloyd blankfein· wells fargo

1:14:21 which is why the US, we had the Fed that did stress testing and was it Banque Santander and Deutsche Bank both came out as no good. So I of course emailed my former New York banker friend. Ah! A report? Well it's short but its a report And it's somewhat cryptic so I may need some help. So I send the email to him DBWTF I thought that was good His response? I left, so you know what that means. And so then I try to bring him out a little bit and like throw back at him that which he said to us which is we won and you'll recall he said the American banks won from the European banks and couldn't really explain what that meant no So i just threw it back at him and said WE WON! And he says exactly and here's where I need help now that Cali pygmy bank is learning how the big guys roll

1:15:19 Diamond and Blank Fine were treated with appropriate respect. This guy, not so much." So I guess that's he talking about Wells Fargo? Is that the Cali Pigmy Bank? No What is the Cali Pigmy Bank? I think he's talking about Goldman Sachs but it's not California Not California Cali Pigmy Bank Maybe maybe its auto correct maybe was piggy bank It may have been piggy bank and just changed to pig me back is that possible? Cali Piggy Bank I mean Bank of America is always assumed to be California even though it's, I think North Carolina now. There is no real bank in California anymore that's a bank. Right? Except these little banks... I don't know! Who are the names of the two people he dropped? Diamond and Blankfein so Jamie Diamond from JP Morgan and Blankfein from Goldman Sachs He says they were treated with appropriate respect Really?

CHAPTER 25 / 45 Discussion

Wells Fargo Hearing, CEO John Stumpf Grilled

Congressman Michael Capuano and other lawmakers excoriated Wells Fargo CEO John Stumpf during a hearing regarding the bank's fake account scandal. Capuano compared Stumpf's "culture of corruption" to a common thief, noting that while a street criminal goes to jail, the CEO merely pays fines. The hearing focused on 5,300 fired workers and 16 regulatory violations over five years.

wells fargo· john stumpf· michael capuano· racketeering· identity theft

1:16:16 I have no idea. I do have some of the hearings, in fact i like to run these every so often and I have so many of them And this is from the Wells Fargo hearing which was just fascinating to watch Well it's only fascinating because these guys finally get stuff off their chest They're going to make one guy look like a douche One guy Well, no. They're gonna bring other people in. I mean he's the douche. He's the key douche they're targeting and they're going to try to... When i was actually stunned these are five minutes this is like and it's interesting to listen to these because i have the timer on the recordings And they all go five minutes and about 15 seconds before

1:16:58 told us the end. And most of these guys are so good at giving their five-minute spiels, the congressmen that they end it right on time! It's actually amazing and But all this is, is one Democrat and Republicans both excoriating this guy to an outrageous extent. If you want to play one of these clips? Yeah I'd love too sure! And we can listen to... This is one of the better ones. I have two that I could play today but there's a bunch of them gonna...I'm going to spread them out because they're so long. We have to interrupt everyone as well but just listen this is like the Capuano who was

1:17:42 uh, Congressman from Massachusetts and he actually had to get cut off. Turnout recognizes the gentleman... I'm sorry He was on a roll this guy This guy's good. Gentleman is out of time. Gentlemen's time has expired. Gentlemen's time has expired You're expired. You're expired. Turnout recognizes the gentlemen from Massachusetts Mr Capuano Thank you Mr Chairman Thank you Mr Stumpf I want to thank you particularly for doing something here today that no other person has been able to do in the last four years You have brought true bipartisanship to Congress. We're all together on this, we are not happy. The last couple... Oh they already started but the last few minutes

1:18:25 They've been running a graphic in the back and my colleague went through some of them. But I think it's important to know what some of the other things you have done. Where is he from? Is he from New York, where is he from upstate New York? I don't know where is he from that's that's a Boston accent. Boston is kind of weird Boston. I'v heard before. Goats Up High! They were they weren't just fines. You're working on it. You screwed student loan holders credit unions Finney May Freddie Mac, mortgage holders African-Americans Hispanics healthcare workers On and on and on. And by the way I understand this isn't material just five months ago You paid 1.2 billion dollars in a fine This is only 15% of that

1:19:26 Who cares? Yeah, who cares. We'll pretend to be sorry we will fire some workers and we'll get through this It's the American way You know where I heard that before The guys who ran Enron The guys who ran Arthur Anderson thought the same thing We're not your problem! We can't criminally prosecute you Hell, you are your own boss! You are the CEO AND THE CHAIRMAN Hold yourself to accountability Oh my god, you've been bad oh no ya haven't That's ridiculous. Your problem is coming, it's not today you think today stuff? It's coming when the prosecutors get a hold of you You're gonna have a lot fun otherwise your going to have a plane coming out of your butthole So I want to thank you for that and i wanna ask you, you got the graphic up here Do you know this guy see im not real good researcher Im not prosecutor

1:20:33 This is simple internet research. That's all I'm capable of doing. Internet research? Google it! Google it! Boom, whole bunch of stuff shoves up. Boom! My magic! This is Mr Robert Holmes who apparently robbed your bank in Lancaster Pennsylvania Oh this is the one where he goes to jail because he stole money and then no one else goes to jail...I've heard this one He did not use a weapon. He got caught They get all the money back He's in jail as we speak on a $750,000 bail. You on the other hand have run an enterprise that has a culture of corruption you encourage subordinates to abuse existing customers by opening fake bank accounts you charge those victims illegal fees interest and late charges And then you send some of them to collection agencies because they didn't pay them

1:21:33 Then you fired 5,300 workers as if you care to cover everybody's tracks. In my opinion, you and your entire leadership team are clearly and unequivocally guilty of at least conspiracy to commit fraud, conspiracy to commit identity theft, clearly racketeering which is something a lot of my friends know something about." Is this in My Cousin Vinny? Sounds a lie! Where's Maria Sermino?! ticking, ticking, ticking and probably a dozen other crimes only simple question what the heck's the difference between you and Mr. Holmes? why shouldn't you be in jail he didn't use a gun you got the money back I understand that his arraignment-he said he was sorry

1:22:25 What's the difference? Why shouldn't you be in jail right along with Mr. Holmes?" Well, let's talk to our constitutional lawyer John C. Dvorak. What is the difference John between that crime and this crime? Oh the crime that they bank had committed is worse. It's worse it's racketeering its conspiracy everything he said and of course he's this guy I don't know what drugs they put the stump guy on But he sits there, he just sits there and he takes it from every... everybody showed up for this hearing. These committees are pretty big but you know sometimes only half of them show up or something because they got another committee across the street no not in this case! The room was packed

1:23:11 Because all it was was given this guy the worst kind of grief you can everybody wants to be have a part of it Everyone wants to have a swing at the pinata piece of him. Yeah, everyone wants that sure I don't need to hear the rest. Unless there's something funny in the last minute and a half. He just calls him out, but the thing that I like is about half of the guys did the same thing which is what I was bitching about this is racketeering and almost half of the guy had said something about his criminal activity as being a negative thing This guy does go on and on The guy, the only thing interesting is the guy tries to come back. The Stumpf character from Wells tries to say something because he's not given much of a chance play it let it play a little longer okay sure Congressman I think that when you do something unethical or dishonest which I've tried to exercise my duties as leader and our senior leadership team You haven't done a real good job! You've had 16 violations in five years That's a good job?

1:24:13 This is a minor fine. You've had a lot of- this is only the seventh largest fine you've had, you've had six others that are a lot bigger That's a good job. I guess what, I forgot you're the one judging yourself because you're also the chairman of the board. I actually think i'm the greatest congressman in history world. I should be speaker president and maybe emperor of the world that my judgment of myself sound good to you? There is no question that we've done things that we need to improve on and we paid fines And were trying get better at every one of our businesses Mr Holmes pays a little fine You know few bucks based on amount money he stole

1:24:49 and the victims he had, you think he should be let out and have no criminal record? Again being dishonest and breaking the law is something very different. Oh so it's not breaking the law stealing my identity and opening an account that I didn't ask for And our culture is about not doing that we train for that not to happen. I don't know what kind of a culture you have 16 violations 53 hundred employees that you say did it Time time time He was the only guy who didn't have time so he could end. I got a lot of email from people regarding the 28 pages and this bill that Congress and Senate passed, President Obama vetoed it and then it came back and they overrode the veto first time for this president And this is of course the JASTA Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act

CHAPTER 26 / 45 Discussion

JASTA Legislation, Saudi Arabia 9/11 Lawsuits

Congress overrode President Obama's veto of the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act (JASTA), allowing 9/11 families to sue Saudi Arabia. The discussion touches on the original 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund managed by Kenneth Feinberg, which distributed $7 billion. The new law is seen as a threat to diplomatic relations and a potential catalyst for exposing Saudi financial ties to U.S. entities.

jasta· saudi arabia· barack obama· 9/11 victims fund· kenneth feinberg

1:25:41 And I was kind of looking through this and I got a number of emails from people saying, hey do you remember that the victims of September 11th received billions of dollars? We talked about on the show Kenneth Feinberg. He was the guy if you recall who was appointed by Attorney General Ashcroft to be special master of this fund, the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund And it's interesting, this article actually mentions that he worked for 33 months pro bono. Always nice to have the magic number show up. Feinberg was responsible for making decisions on how much each family of a victim would receive

1:26:23 He had to estimate how much each victim would have earned in a full lifetime. You remember this was very controversial because there were so many wealthy Wall Street people that those families said, well you know we need more because we were making this with our spouse apparent. So at the end of the process $7 billion was awarded 7 billion average payout 1.8 million And this was, you know... This was a U.S. fund that was put into place and do you think it's the same people now who want to sue Saudi Arabia based on the 28 pages? You think it's the same people going back who want money? I have no idea now that you mentioned this so I forgot about that Yeah me too and I remember what is very controversial there were also lot of hearings about it I should probably go back and see if I can find some other things But I did look at this bill and it doesn't seem

1:27:22 you know anything really crazy or out of the ordinary, it pretty much says what you'd think it would say. Here we go reading from the bill directly... The United States has a vital interest in providing persons and entities injured as a result of terrorist activities committed within the United States with full access to the court system in order to pursue civil claims against persons entities or countries that have knowingly or recklessly provided material support, or resources. And so really I don't see necessarily why this bill was even necessary because it stays within the United States. It's no different than the lawsuit against Iran and the money that was given to victims based on Iran's sponsoring of terrorism

1:28:09 The purpose of this bill, of this act is to provide civil litigants with the broadest possible basis consistent with the Constitution of the United States to seek relief against persons entities in foreign countries wherever acting and whenever they may be found that have provided material support directly or indirectly to foreign organizations or persons that engage in terrorist activities. Now there was something in here definition of the term intentional terrorism Has the meaning given to the term in United States code does not include an act of war. So if we're at war with a declared war, I presume then you can't... Well not in any declared war. Zero. Zero exactly. A foreign state shall not be immune from the jurisdiction of the courts of the United States

1:29:02 In any case in which money damages are sought against a foreign state for physical injury to personal property or death occurring in the United States, that again is only if it's not war only terrorism. And then there was some other thing here about... I'm sorry my markings somehow lost my markups here Oh yeah, there's a stay. This is very interesting provision which has not talked about it actually we have couple of interesting provisions here. We have stay of action and intervention the Attorney General may intervene in any action in which a foreign state is subject to the jurisdiction of a court or United States under section blah blah blah

1:29:41 for this purpose of seeking a stay, it can only last for 180 days such as stay. And there are some other interventionary measures but what it really seems like the problem here is nobody wants any and the president himself said this nobody wants any work any investigation done into Saudi Arabian money in the United States because I think that is where the cover-up will eventually fall apart I just don't think that you can hide everything if you're transferring big money back and forth, into what groups it's going. Because this of course will also open up CARE and all these other groups. Yeah to open up CARE or open up the Clinton Foundation It would be a huge mess

CHAPTER 27 / 45 Discussion

Obama Foundation, Saudi Influence and Bill Clinton

Speculation suggests President Obama is positioning his own foundation to succeed the Clinton Foundation as a primary vehicle for international fundraising. Obama's veto of JASTA is interpreted as an attempt to protect Saudi donors who might later contribute to his library and "My Brother's Keeper" initiative. The relationship between the Saudis and the U.S. political elite is characterized as deeply transactional.

barack obama· clinton foundation· saudi arabia· my brother's keeper· fundraising

1:30:28 A huge mess. I was thinking about this in my own thesis from the last show, which is that Obama wants to get Hillary and for sure so that Clinton Foundation can take a backseat to his foundation. My brother's keeper. And he's got apparently developed one of the biggest mailing lists is notoriously huge. It all started with the Obama for America, I think. Yeah. That's it as a monster list worth a lot of money and he thinks you can start doing and you know he's there's no reason for him not to get mentored a little bit by just hanging out with Bill a Little excessively it seems to me. Did you see that where he was yelling at bill to get on the plane? Yeah, bill wouldn't get on the planes don't look hammered to me when is Kind of staggering

1:31:14 But it seems as though Bill likes to talk anyway. He probably... It was his last ride, you know that last free ride and like I'm gonna make the best of it! So he has probably discussed how the Clinton Foundation actually works as a moneymaker and I think Obama's just going to do the same thing yeah and when as is I thought about that The number one, I think the people have talked about this before that the Clinton Foundation just gets millions and millions hundreds of millions of dollars from the Saudis. The Saudis are the big benefactors you give us to the money we'll protect your flanks this is what in there was always bitching about Hillary not

1:31:59 Oh, what about she likes the Saudis so much but they're the worst with women's rights and all this kind of thing. That doesn't come to the fore." And Obama wants to keep...doesn't want to offend that's why Obama vetoed the bill he doesn't want to offend and now you can say I vetoed the bill! I did my job He wants to keep that Saudi money flowing into the country and now it he wants coming to his foundation Exactly And that Saudi money is..they're the most generous You know they bribe everybody he wants the money now. And so he vetoes the bill, he says it's a bad idea with a bunch of bogus reasons and I just sense that the Saudis are just so corrupting that is just something people need to be aware of. You know? There comes the dough. We talked about yet another interim report from the JIT, the Joint Investigation Team

CHAPTER 28 / 45 Discussion

MH17 Investigation, Joint Investigation Team Findings

The Joint Investigation Team (JIT) released an interim report concluding that Flight MH17 was downed by a Russian-made Buk missile fired from rebel-held territory. Russia has rejected the findings, citing a reliance on social media evidence from sources like Bellingcat. Concerns are raised regarding the Ukrainian Secret Service's (SBU) presence on the investigative panel and their reported veto power over the final report.

mh17· ukraine· russia· bellingcat· sbu

1:32:54 investigating who downed Flight MH17 over Ukraine. And the Russians are very unhappy with these findings, they take a lot of issue with you know the sourcing of information through the internet remember it's Bellingcat the blogger who placed the Buk at a certain location, which actually when you look at how this thing would have actually driven in from Russia doubled back. You know like a very strange route it may have taken and to reiterate I wanted to say because one of our military guys who has been working with me on this producers he said the main problem with the Buk theory exploding to the left hand side of the aircraft is that the shrapnel would push the metal

1:33:46 fuselage in and not out. And there's plenty of pictures where you see this, you know the holes from whatever it was are going outward from the aircraft not inward so that's a huge discrepancy also of course books were made by Russia and they were pretty much every book comes from like every piece of weaponry in the Middle East comes from us or from Russia And then the another big issue, well let's listen to the report and I can tell you some of the things. But now Russia is angry at The Netherlands. Big problem as you know that The Netherlands economy runs on Russian oil and gas mainly gas and the financial world in The Netherlands with accountancies and all kinds of legal

1:34:38 The diplomatic row is deepening between Russia and the Netherlands over the downing of flight MH17 in Ukraine. Both countries have summoned each other's ambassadors for explanations after Moscow rejected the findings of international investigators implicating Russia in the tragedy two years ago. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has dismissed evidence used in the probe as coming from social media and unnamed witnesses. Key conclusions in Wednesday's report were that the plane was hit by a Russian-made Buk missile fired from a village held by pro-Russian rebels in eastern Ukraine, and the launcher was transported into the country from Russia

1:35:27 All 298 people on board, most of them Dutch were killed. The findings counter Moscow's suggestion that the Malaysia Airlines plane en route from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur was brought down by Ukraine's military rather than the separatists. So the problems Russia has specifically with this report is their evidence is based on a phone call that was overheard And in that phone call, it sounds like two guys may be talking about some heavy well actually they talked about you know oh you got to drive that thing over there. They never mentioned book It actually sounds much more like they're talking about the aerodrome being attacked. But the funny thing was, an RTL4 reporter when this came out—it's in Dutch so it makes no sense to play it— he said I really have no questions for this joint investigation team because I find it ridiculous to have to take seriously that one of the suspects is actually on the panel

1:36:26 And one of the suspects is, of course Ukraine. I mean that is really the argument did it come from Ukraine? Did it come from Russia and the SBU is that's the Ukrainian Secret Service they not only are on the team turns out they have a veto on what went into or what goes into any report so this is a sham this is a total sham They have a veto and this is now just coming out, this agreement. They have some non-disclosures but yeah the SBU the secret service who are of Ukraine who are on the committee on the joint investigation team they have a veto what's going in I mean please. Yeah well the Russians should be irked. The worst part about all this is that those are Nazis

State Department Briefing, John Kirby Body Bag Comment

State Department spokesman John Kirby drew sharp criticism from Moscow after stating that Russian troops would continue to return from Syria in "body bags" if the conflict persisted. Kirby later defended the remark as a statement of fact rather than a threat. The exchange highlights the deteriorating diplomatic relationship between the U.S. and Russia over the Syrian civil war.

john kirby· russia· syria· terrorism· state department

1:37:22 Oh yeah, those guys in Ukraine are the total Nazis. Like literally they're fascists from the German days and World War II days And that's who Victoria Newland and John McCain did deals with these very people before the Maidan Yeah we've done it since the war Yeah we're pretty good at that Do you remember we had, what's his face? Kirby at the State Department talking about Russia. Accusing them over what happened in Syria and the bombings and he was kind of cavalier like well they just keep doing this they're gonna go back in body bags! Remember that? Oh yeah terrible Let's just listen to it just to remind ourselves of how it was Kirby not Toner

1:38:06 No, it's Kirby. It's Kirby. What are the consequences for Russia other than Secretary Kerry won't talk to them on this particular issue going forward? The consequences are that the civil war will continue in Syria that extremist groups will continue to exploit the vacuums that are there in Syria to expand their operations which will include, no question attacks against Russian interests perhaps even Russian cities and Russia will continue to send troops home in body bags and they will continue to

1:38:58 Uh, loose. Wow! Did you hear how he's talking? That's really... I just noticed this. They will t-sh-t-t-t And a-za-a-a-zah Even perhaps more aircraft Alright so the Russians heard this of course like we did and they went heyyyy What's this big mouth you got, man? About body bags. Huh?! Are you threatening me punk!? I wasn't issuing any threat yesterday to... To say that those cities could be vulnerable Russians will go back and body bag them someday. No! Those were facts That's the best line ever

1:39:38 It's a fact. I'm not threatening anybody, it's just the fact you're gonna go home in body bags. Very nice! They are not new facts they are not things that we haven't said before The question was what would be the consequences to Russia for not being serious about meeting their commitments. And I said what, I have said the Secretary has said many times before that the consequences are more war, more bloodshed and it's Russian troops that are in that war not US troops so it was just a fact there was no threat you know I've seen claims that I was trying to incite terrorism and thats just completely bogus That is not at all the point that I was trying to make Only if you tweet it

1:40:20 That's when you're when it is illegal. You can probably say it, but if you tweeted now that would be inciting terrorism. Douchebag me douche this guy. Thank you douche bag unbelievable terrible unbelievable and he so glib about everything yeah hey hey the news coming from from the military producers is there's high expectation of another Middle East war on bigger scale between countries themselves And the reasoning behind that is that we seem to be kind of in irons, not doing anything. They know President Obama's not really going to do anything certainly not in his last few months and then you have nut jobs who say hey wait a minute I could be the ruler of this place

CHAPTER 30 / 45 Discussion

CIA Director John Brennan, Inspired Terrorism and Caliphate

CIA Director John Brennan discussed the shift from directed to "inspired" terrorism during a panel moderated by CNN's Jake Tapper. Brennan used the traditional Arabic pronunciation of "Caliphate" and warned of a "terrorist diaspora" occurring over the next several years. He argued that rhetoric disparaging Islam is detrimental to U.S. national security interests.

john brennan· cia· isil· caliphate· jake tapper

1:41:09 There's a lot of worry about that. A lot of bad, you know, in fact CIA director Brennan was on some kind of panel or something and Jake Tapper from CNN was moderating and he talked about terrorist groups and what we should look forward to. Of course now we know it's not at all going to be directed terrorism no it's inspired terrorism which is much more fun Because you know anything can be inspired terrorism. It'll be fantastic And you have to remember that Brennan speaks I think five dialects of Arabic the guy is an Arabophile he did not know that yeah, we've talked about it Yeah, he's lived there for many many years He speaks five dialect in fact he doesn't say caliphate he says Caliphate

1:42:04 which I guess is some official pronunciation we should adhere to. Here's his view on what we're going to see terrorism-wise in the United States. Do you agree that widening the optic by talking about Islam, by talking about banning Muslims... Is that a hindrance to actually carrying out your work? Oh i'm sorry it's CNN so Jake Tapper has to set them up to slam Trump obviously Words and comments that taint the religion as being the source of the problem, I think is tremendously detrimental to our interests and to a better understanding of this phenomenon. I have met with princes or presidents and prime ministers throughout the Middle East. They are outraged that they're... Do you think it was of significance? He said he's met with princes. It sounds like that was top-of-mind because you could've said royalty, you could've said king but he said princesses! And then kind of retakes it and says something else

1:42:59 Maybe. It's tremendously detrimental to our interests and to a better understanding of this phenomenon I have met with princes and presidents and prime ministers throughout the Middle East. They are outraged that their community, their Muslim community has been infected by this cancer. Individuals who have this distorted and very perverted interpretation of Islam that pursue these psychopathic agendas of horrific violence And they recognize that they have a very important role, the leading role to help purge their communities of these influences. These individuals who are fanatics, extremists and terrorists

1:43:41 They are driven by this ideology that is not rooted in Islam. It's a psychopathic ideology that is very absolutist, that either you're with us or against us and that's why the... Wait a minute! Isn't what we always say? That's what George Bush always said. You're either with us or you're with the enemy it's the same thing Nah, absolutist. I'm sorry it sounds like we're pretty good at terrorism too. ideology that is very absolutist, that either you are with us or against us. And that's why the... That's inspired by George W Bush then! That's your ideology right there? I'm inspired by Bush. The establishment of a caliphate, the so-called Caliphate by ISIL as well as Al Qaeda's agenda really are trying to cause this what Samuel Huntington in his previous work in the 60s referred to the clash of civilizations they want to drive this wedge between the West

1:44:41 and the Muslim world. There you go, what I found interesting there besides that he consistently calls it the caliphate which i guess is an official pronunciation. It kind of ruins our tune. Yeah! It does yeah that does ruin our tune um The Brady Bunch? Wasn't that it? I think so. Here it is, let's have a listen. Yeah we have to change that to Caliphate just to be official. Caliphate! Caliphate yeah here's a good one while we're at it play this one call me terrorist diaspora

1:45:31 There will be a terrorist diaspora sometime in the next two to five years like we've never seen before We must prepare ourselves and our allies especially in Western Europe to confront that threat. Oh boy Yeah, that's to distract people from his Hillary thing yeah, there was a good suggestion from the chat room Caliphate condoms might be just a great product caliphate caliphate condoms now ribbed now extra slippery Okay, onward. Yes onward indeed Let's go to the cyber. There is a little thing I got from PBS This actually more than a little thing is too damn long this way designed to break it up into pieces But I didn't instead I just have it as one long clip you can stop it when you feel like we maybe restarted if You want? This is the long form of the PBS decided to discuss

CHAPTER 31 / 45 Discussion

Election Hacking Concerns, Voter Registration Databases

U.S. officials are raising alarms about Russian hackers penetrating voter registration databases in states like Illinois and Arizona. While some experts worry about the manipulation of voter rolls to cause Election Day confusion, others point out that many of these databases are already public. In Philadelphia, the use of voting machines without a paper audit trail is identified as a significant vulnerability.

election hacking· voter registration· illinois· arizona· philadelphia

1:46:31 the hacks and the Russians, and it's gonna affect the election. The next election is going to be... And by the way I did learn one thing in this clip. One of things that I learned is that Pennsylvania is one of the swing states or so-called swing state that whoever wins that state could win the election and they do not have in Philadelphia which was expected to go because has always gone this way heavily Democratic In Philadelphia alone, they only use the machines that do not make a backup of the vote. There's no printed record? There is no printed records so you can go in there and everyone could vote for Trump and Hillary will win. You know it would be so easy for the president to just say come out

1:47:22 Okay, Donald Trump has said that there's issues maybe with the voting. We have all kinds of problems we have all kinds of voter ID laws that discriminate against poor people black people old people brown people red people anything but straight white men I think we should just say you know what? We're going back to the inkwell and you show up You vote you dip your finger in the ink well and you voted There is nothing wrong with that Yeah, he could do that. Why? I would suggest that is a very good idea if the individual states could do it. Now who am i? Concern has been growing about possible cyber manipulation of the US election since revelations in June that the Democratic National Committee and Democratic Congressional Committees data had been stolen U.S intelligence officials pointed the finger at Russian government linked hackers though wouldn't say so publicly

1:48:15 Separately, Illinois and Arizona's voter registration databases were penetrated in June forcing them to temporarily shut down. This week FBI director James Comey told Congress there had been new attempts to penetrate many more state voter databases Now wait a minute these are the databases that are pretty much publicly available Most of them, yes. Yeah you can just go online and you can get them. That question is never asked neither is the question which was posed by RT which is if you've hacked the Democratic National Committee You have all these databases in there right? But then there we also have the innuendo. This is one of the worst reports I've ever heard, by the way. The innuendo about the Russians is well you know no one will say it out loud but behind closed doors they all say it right?

1:49:06 Now, many more state voter databases. Margaret Warner has been looking into this and joins me now So what's the real danger to the elections if voter registration databases are being hacked? Hari on the one hand it could be strictly criminal people want to get addresses home phone numbers emails and use it for criminal purposes And many states have had to deal with that in the past but But the other danger is that that information can be used to selectively manipulate the vote on Election Day. For example, send out emails to voters in certain districts—perhaps minority districts—saying oh your registration place has been changed, your voting place has been changed and this has been done often by phone it's an- Oh man I wish I had uh...I didn't clip that clandestine audio from Hillary Clinton i figured everyone had already heard

1:49:58 But in that, she talks about changing districts. Rigging the districts is a common practice in American politics? I didn't know that until this year. Old old trick or to simply delete them from the database when they get there. There's incredible confusion. So as a senior Homeland Security official told me this afternoon and the other Hacking is one thing, going into the database and starting to edit it. Is that what they're actually saying is possible? You can do that or you do... Or they're doing that? I guess if you have access to the database, you can edit it but why would you want to do that? Well, we had very complicated too. The databases, If you start editing the database, It's gonna show up in some log Yeah

1:50:50 I just don't see this. What's the point? Did they give an explanation of why the database will be edited? She just said you take somebody's name off the list and when they go to vote, it says hey, you're not on the list And then confusion ensues. I got you, and by the way this has happened to me i went into vote years ago and my name wasn't anywhere there so what was it but what? And they said oh here's a provisional ballot they give you this ballot which gets counted with the rest of them maybe maybe well maybe not yeah maybe none of them get counted exactly There is incredible confusion So as a senior homeland security official told me this afternoon The other danger that really worries us Is that just

CHAPTER 32 / 45 Discussion

Fancy Bear and Cozy Bear, Russian Cyber Retaliation

Cybersecurity experts have linked the DNC hacks to Russian military intelligence groups known as "Fancy Bear" and "Cozy Bear." Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson has urged state officials to secure their systems, though many precincts lack the resources to do so. The U.S. government is reportedly considering grounds for retaliation against Russia for interfering in the electoral process.

fancy bear· cozy bear· gru· kgb· jeh johnson

1:51:29 Those of these hacks undermine American voters' view of the credibility of the U.S. election system, and there are certainly foreign powers who would like to do that. So let's talk about those foreign powers. Do U.S. officials believe that the Russians are behind this or any other hacks that have been related so far? Yes. First of all they established that they were behind the hacks you mentioned earlier—the DNC and the DCCC. And that there are two sort of outfits, one's called Fancy Bear it's a nickname and one is Cozy Bear, one is linked to the old... I'm telling you our own hacking group should be Huggy Bear! I'll just say it again KGB, they call them GRU and one is linked to military intelligence

1:52:11 by cyber experts who've been involved in these investigations that these voter database hacks are the work of so-called fancy bear, which is the one tied to Russian military intelligence. This is the same outfit that in Ukraine, in Ukrainian elections two years ago penetrated the database of this, of the Ukrainian election authorities and tried to switch the actual plate that showed who was winning where. They didn't succeed but the fake plate that showed someone else won did end up on Russian TV in Russia. That's almost like the Dewey wins sign.

1:52:49 Well, that's very sophisticated. Now we're actually hacking in- The fake plate! Yeah soon we'll be driving down I35 and the Russians will have hacked this of the road signs It'll say something like die scum Hang on It's completely irrelevant. Homeland Security Jay Johnson said this morning that by design almost, or at least by reality 9000 different precincts that we have they don't all use the same system and don't have the same databases so there is not a direct threat in manipulating the overall result He is actually right about that it's a crazy system and as he said nine thousand different precincts but There is an internet connection at some point when most of them report to the Central Commission, though that can always be checked back.

1:53:32 The other vulnerability though is some states still used voter touchscreen machines that leave no paper audit trail. So like in a swing state like Pennsylvania, which is just true and Philadelphia there's no paper trail whereas in Bucks County there is so if someone were really smart picked swing districts in swing states and put malware in the computer you know, the voting machines to go off that day and change every third Clinton vote for Trump or vice versa. It'd be impossible to go back later and check. So what's the government doing about this considering we're 39 days away? Well not as much as many cybersecurity experts would like. What Jay Johnson, the Secretary of Homeland Security

1:54:17 did do right after, right in mid-summer was call all the secretaries of state have a big conference call and say look there's a big danger out there. One we want you to and we're ready to help so he sent out a lot of new standards she said you have to be sure to close all your open doors A lot of these precincts just don't have the manpower or money to do it right and will give you technical help I was told this afternoon that 18 to 20 of the states had actually All right.

1:54:57 All right, update McAfee and execute. This is really a no-no and this is considered grounds for retaliation. Grounds for retaliation? We're talking about a corrupt system where either one of the Democrats or Republicans can fix these stupid machines that don't have a paper trail! And okay, you can continuously talk about Russia but the fact remains this is dumb idea did anyone talk about that being a dumb idea and let's just do it on paper

CHAPTER 33 / 45 Discussion

Syrian Refugee Screening, ISIS Prosecution Statistics

During a congressional hearing, USCIS Director Leon Rodriguez was questioned by Senator David Vitter regarding the screening of Syrian refugees. While Rodriguez claimed no refugee admitted since 9/11 has committed a violent act, it was revealed that 18% of ISIS-related prosecutions in the U.S. involved individuals who entered as refugees or asylees. The distinction between "conspiracies" and "acts of violence" was a central point of debate.

syrian refugees· uscis· isis· david vitter· leon rodriguez

1:55:45 No. Why is that? It takes Russia out of the picture! You can't have that! Bastards in Russia trying to screw with our elections and get Trump elected?! Yeah, of course... you got it, that's it makes so much sense Well Trump definitely got some uh this will be the last one before we take a little break he definitely got a present I would say from recent testimony from USCIS, I think he's the director Rodriguez. That's the United States Citizen Immigration Service. Those are the guys you actually have to pay the two and a half thousand dollars too before you pay another $2-$3,000 to your lawyer for one person to be petitioned and then become legal. That's the part that is broken is these guys are just stealing money from people

1:56:35 And the question came up about Syrian refugees. And, you know this Trump has been saying well, you know Skittles three skittles it could kill ya! It'd be horrible. Turns out it's not just three skittles...it's actually much higher but there's a little sneaky wordage going on here that since September 11th Not a single act of actual terrorist violence has been committed by a refugee who has undergone our screening procedures. This is Vitter, from Republican from Louisiana There have been individuals who came to the US as children

1:57:11 There are individuals who came a long time ago before our modern procedures, but since September 11th all we have had is conspiracies not only by refugees but in fact by U.S.-born persons other kinds of immigrants It's really an equal opportunity world And just to make clear when he speaks of conspiracy He is not talking about conspiracy theories He actually using the word properly that there have been people who conspired together to do bad things That's the conspiracy So you don't count conspiracies. They're not actual acts of violence, they were effectively disrupted by US law enforcement is my point. I want to get your points. That would be our FBI six week cycle effectively interrupted and we know that in the six week cycle while it was still around FBI had Patsies had lots of informants that go in this new talk to somebody some moron

1:58:05 How many cases have we documented of this? 10, 15. Well I think you can document this most recent thing in New York as part of this program Exactly and i have a clip to follow up but first let's get back to the refugees from Syria My points are Mr Rodriguez Fordham Law School Center on National Security has released a report on ISIS prosecutions in the United States And they looked at all ISIS prosecutions in the United States and determined that of those involved in that, 18% were refugees or asylees. Shouldn't that be of enormous concern to all of us? Without a doubt yes I mean isn't that a very big percentage no and not it's uh... not a big percentage. No, no, no, I didn't get to say what i was about to say

1:59:00 My question is, isn't that a very big percentage? 18% 1% would be a big percentage. This is an area of significant concern Those cases are darn relevant aren't they just as relevant as a successful violent attack Oh sure they are and they inform number the improvements that we've made over the years many have those cases involve admissions that took place awhile ago So just to clarify your earlier statement Again, you touted nobody came in through the refugee program as an adult who committed a violent act But there sure were those who came in who were convicted of terrorist offense. I was transparent about that That's correct Oh well You're only transparent about it once that this thing no No, I said it in my opening I know I said it in my opening remarks. I'll set up my opening remarks So there's your gift 18% of all refugees or asylees

1:59:56 have gone on to, uh... at least- No I think you misheard. Oh okay? 18% of all the ISIS cases turned out to be refugees. Oh so it's the other way around Yeah, 18 percent of the cases not 18 percent of all refugees otherwise we'd be having people blown up That's why i was all freaked out So I misunderstood that Still a high number but what does that mean Well it depends if there are only two cases Right right They didn't give us raw numbers, but the guy was misleading I have to say. No doubt about it He made it sound like there's none even though he claims they're... he had some other... I don't know why I had to re-listened that clip to see what he was talking about Yeah So then we have the New York New Jersey bomber and if you have any clips on that But what I do have here is Comey and he

CHAPTER 34 / 45 Discussion

New York Bomber Investigation, FBI Look-Back

FBI Director James Comey addressed why the agency did not interview the New York/New Jersey bomber, Ahmad Khan Rahami, while he was in jail in 2014. Rahami's father had previously alerted the FBI to his son's radicalization. Comey stated the agency is conducting a "deep look-back" to understand the decisions made by agents during the initial investigation.

ahmad khan rahami· fbi· james comey· radicalization· pakistan

2:00:56 Is ask the question, you know what happened when? The the bombers dad said hey FBI this guy's radicalized. He's one of you I think he is not what he said Yeah, like that yeah, it was one of you and now you should pick him up There were a couple other details that that I got out of this but Comey Doesn't really want to answer the question as to why the FBI at the time did not even interview him his father had accused him of being a terrorist at one time and he stabbed his brother and was in jail. Did the FBI interview him when he was in jail about his possible terrorist tendencies, and his trips to Pakistan or Afghanistan? I'll answer that...I'm gonna be very- I'm trying to be very circumspect on how I answer questions about the case because the guy's alive and is entitled to a fair trial And so don't do anything. No, it's easy! I don't think you're entitled to a fair trial if you've committed terrorism Well

2:01:51 No, it doesn't matter. Yes you are if you do it and your an American citizen I believe so The thing here is first of all the question was sketchy because he says was he interviewed while he was in jail? So Comey has to stop and think, wait a minute. Well I think the reason is because the piece of information we didn't have is that he had stabbed his brother and that's when he got hauled off And I think that's when the father said to the FBI you gotta look into this kid because uh... He's radicalized Well, let's see how come he continues. I'll answer that. I'm going to be very...I'm trying to be very circumspect in how i answer questions about the case because the guy is alive and is entitled to a fair trial And so don't do anything that would allow him to argue He lost the ability of a fair trial The answers we did not interview when he was in jail

2:02:45 2014. And why would that be? You interviewed the father, I believe you might have talked to the brother you might have talked to a friend The best evidence was him He's in jail he didn't have to... Why did they not go and talk to him Yeah, sitting here I don't want to answer that question yet. We have commissioned as i do in all of these cases a deep look back we're trying to make the case now we will go back very carefully try to understand what decisions the agents made who investigated that and why and whether there is learning from that so I don't want to answer it just now because I'd be speculating a bit yeah No of course not they did interview him but not in jail you're right I think you nailed it on that

CHAPTER 35 / 45 Discussion

Carnegie Deli Closure, Manhattan Cultural Staple

The iconic Carnegie Deli in Manhattan, in operation since 1937, announced it will close its doors. The closure is attributed to a family divorce and the owner's desire to step away from the grueling pace of the restaurant business. The deli was famous for its massive pastrami sandwiches and served as a cultural landmark for decades.

carnegie deli· manhattan· katz's deli· pastrami· restaurant closure

2:03:27 In fact, I have a video which are put in the show notes Which is very similar to what you played earlier and you can see the guy with the flannel shirt Who was there originally and he's there. He's actually gets into the ambulance with the guy No, no maybe but I thought he was getting ready get any on in the ambulance Oh that could be yeah this bad. Oh don't say anything Sad news from New York sad after What is it how many years has this thing been around? Since 1937, the Carnegie Deli in Manhattan is going to close. This is sad! This is a staple." The best... well the stage delis are still there and the real deli cats or whatever it is way downtown is where it really goes down. Lower East, yeah

2:04:16 Yeah, it's a big deal. It's a classic place and I used to go there and you get this pastrami sandwich that would feed up the regiment. And all the pickles you can eat free. Yeah, and yeah well there was a divorce in the family and they owned the building it's not like they have to close it but the woman that the wife took it over and she doesn't like running a deli I guess. She said no it's just a lot of hassle you know? And I don't think it was...I think that they didn't receive the support they needed. Well at least that is what I'm seeing now. I am seeing everywhere where you can set your clock through

2:04:55 Oh, I wish I had supported him more. Wish I'd gone more often and no idea. I didn't know. You know? Never thought about how...I think that people made it easy to make it look easy. Make it look easy to run a deli since 1937. Believe me its not! No thats what Im saying but people take that for granted and then when its gone like ah well I can always go to Katz. That's a long haul to go there Well, let's thank a few people that did. Let's do this then. I'm going to show my salute by donating to No Agenda. Imagine all the people who could do that! Oh yeah, that'd be fab! On No Agenda morning... Let's start with Andrea Cardenas in San Diego California $150 Thank you for your invaluable analysis of the media week after week

CHAPTER 36 / 45 Discussion

Producer Credits, Anniversary Donations and Meetups

The hosts recognize numerous producers, including Andrea Cardenas, Chad Biederman (Baron of Guam), and Sir Brian Knight. Many donations are themed around the show's ninth anniversary. James Moore from the No Agenda Shop is credited for profit sharing, and Sir Dan Knight of the Absurdly Large Campfire receives a title change. The segment also mentions a potential meetup at the Sacramento Train Museum.

2:05:49 I started listening to NOA Agenda after my boyfriend repeatedly hit me in the mouth. Very nice! I got tired of asking him about NOA Agenda's take on current events every week and she ended up listening herself, and here we are. Thank you Andrea. Could be Andrea by the way... could be Andrea. Could be. Baron of Guam Chad Biderman. Biederman? Biederman around Lake Illinois $150 dollars. Uh i have a note here somewhere And since he's kindly sent it, I have to at least do some take on this note because it's actually hand typed. Nice! With a beat up old thing that has got just the... well, it is collector's item. Can you identify? Is the Corona perhaps?

2:06:39 I can't tell, but it is the...I think it's elite. Answering your call for support and there are a bunch of Xs you can't get white out anymore. Really? You can't get white out?! I don't know maybe- You know who invented that don't ya? You!? No! Oh. It was the monkeys mom date. Was it not Davy Jones's mom? I have no idea Yeah, pretty sure she invented whiteout yeah paint Yeah, you know what I mean. Yeah no it's great the quality i use it all the time the quality of No Agenda has been a top drawer as always so I can only speculate as to why the stingy bastards in your audience aren't coughing up some shekels. Your analysis has done so much to expand my own critical thinking that the enclosed $150 donation doesn't approach the gratitude I feel two times a week anyway he said

2:07:38 He says Netflix costs 10 bucks a month. HBO costs 20 bucks a month, audible.com gives you free audio books for $15 a month The New York Times cost over 12 dollars a month Think about what you get in return for that money and then and then something's it gets stacked up against no agenda You know come on. It was good set-up By the way Mike Nesmith mom oh okay yeah never make more sense All right, thank you Chad Baron of Guam. Yeah Brian Massey in Hartford Connecticut 10415 he says it's been almost seven years since my first two dollar monthly donation which is not even available anymore and he goes on and he says he's writing made night Sir Ryan Knight sorry this is important a donation of one oh four dot fifteen for ten four fifteen to commemorate the first anniversary of my wedding to my wonderful and beautiful wife Jenna

2:08:39 And that brought his contribution up to the required amount. And he says, it's been almost seven years since my first $2 monthly donation." So congratulations Sir Brian Knight of Northern Connecticut. Yes.

Rodrigo Duterte, Philippines Drug War and US Relations

Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte made controversial remarks comparing his anti-drug campaign to the Holocaust, stating he would be "happy to slaughter" three million drug addicts. Duterte also criticized U.S. hypocrisy regarding police shootings of Black citizens and the bombing of Syria. His rhetoric has strained relations with the Obama administration, leading to speculation about potential regime change.

rodrigo duterte· philippines· adolf hitler· barack obama· drug war

2:18:04 Yeah, very obscure. I'll say it was obscure! I only have a couple left but i did want to play since his English is fascinating to listen to our new pal Duerte from the Philippines. Okay, I've got the Duerte clip All right then we'll use your Duerte clip Well my Duerte clip comes from and I think the best source which is because they don't know what to make of this guy Democracy Now So Duarte is the president of the Philippines. They call him the Donald Trump of the Philippines, and he's pretty much been just killing thousands of people anyone involved in any kind of drugs. He rounds them up or just shoots them! A lot of people they love him in the Philippines

2:18:52 Apparently. In general, they love him. Okay I have my clip on standby just in case but we'll listen to yours he has been saying some funny stuff you remember he is the guy who said about President Obama what'd he say hey jag off don't come here tell us what to do And he called him a son of a whore, wasn't that it? Son of a whore. Yeah I'd say it's time to bomb the Philippines. And in the Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte said today he would be happy to slaughter drug addicts just like Adolf Hitler massacred millions of Jews during the Holocaust. Duterte made the remarks during a rambling speech after returning from a trip to Vietnam. Hitler massacred 3 million Jews. Now there is three million drug addicts

2:19:39 Interesting, I have a different clip from Duarte. Oh, yeah. This guy is a gold mine. Oh he's great I wish he spoke a little better English Yeah this is actually pretty close mic'd the clip I have so it's easier to understand I will tell you in advance He in essence is saying black people and Syrian people are dying because of the policies and actions of the United States I say that kind of fighting words It can happen! It happens in America they're shooting the blacks there

2:20:38 It shows on TV, what's the difference between America and the Philippines? Nothing! So what is surprising here is surprising to us. We see a policeman there shooting at black guy there How many times had it happened in the past That's why you have the violent demonstrations So would it surprise you and me Almost the same one case only three cases here so what? It involves the same principle Say for every one black dead there You have about five here And so Does it make this world more livable because there is less killing? When you shoot a black man dead, what is that? Is that not appalling? When you bomb Syria and Iraq and kill communities. And you kill children and old people in hospitals What is it?! Why is the United States not doing anything? I do not read anybody in their stupid body complaining about

2:21:45 This stench there of death. Look at the iconic boy that was taken out from the rubble and he was made to sit in the ambulance, and we saw it So what's a difference? Life will be criminal or maybe it was really rubbed out Don't laugh! Rubble He like the rubble This guy is a goldmine He knows that all about rubbalization too Yeah He knows it Rubble They make it rubble I don't know how long this guy's gonna stay in business. I think a coup is in his future, some form of regime change perhaps from the Netherlands Wow wow wow it's that time again we're getting up towards December 5th and you know what that means? No. That means Black Pete! That's right St Nicholas will be coming to the Netherlands and again we open up the huge cesspool

CHAPTER 39 / 45 Discussion

Black Pete Controversy, Dutch Oikophobia and Blackface

The traditional Dutch character "Zwarte Piet" (Black Pete) is facing unprecedented backlash in the Netherlands, with major toy stores removing Sinterklaas merchandise. The controversy is framed as an example of "oikophobia," where the Dutch are rejecting their own cultural heritage. The discussion also touches on Playboy's decision to feature a Muslim woman in a hijab, questioning the magazine's editorial direction.

black pete· sinterklaas· netherlands· blackface· playboy

2:22:47 of a tradition where we have black Pete's I don't think we need to go into it entirely with the whole year. Well, well it'll get worse and will have some clips as we get closer December 5th but here's the thing and this is actually a part of Oikophobia You know, the... Oh my gosh. We're Dutch and we've had this tradition of St. Nicholas coming on the steamboat with his Black Pete's you know... We were racist! We've been racist all this time! We hate ourselves! Check it out there's a big toy store now that has said because of all of the Black Pete controversy we're not going to have any Saint Nicholas stuff in our store this year Not even the good Saint Nick himself Yeah that's a big wow

2:23:33 That's a big wow. And, you know people are getting outraged once again...once again! So we'll have plenty of clips coming up I'm sure. Normally before all this became a controversy could you buy a Black Pete doll? Oh yeah dolls, you could buy the wigs that make-up for it Of course it is just part of the Dutch culture Yeah. And now for the biggest toy retail, uh, toy store to say we're not going to put any Sinterklaas no St Nicholas in the stores my goodness and there was one of our producers sent me a picture of a grade school quiz and it was a drawing of black Pete this may be for like eight year old nine year olds. And the question was why? Let's see what was it It was something like why do people continue

2:24:33 No. Oh, geez I need to look it up but anyway it was they showed this there was why is this a controversy? Why do people continue to do this and the answers were pretty much because they just like to pester black people and because they're really racist that was like the two answers what's the racist thing You can't have a black, is it any black doll? Well it's Blackface. No the problem is... Oh that's right, Black Pete was not black! Black Pete is Black Face which has a very different connotation in... Although you really know what you're talking about for people out there. Blackface was actually done by blacks initially. Originally

2:25:20 And there's a good exposition about this in the Shuffle Along play that was on Broadway, which we got to see. And it did...Shuffle Along play, which is all black performers doing this fantastic take on the story behind the original Shuffle Along is more or less a two-hour lecture Black blacks in America in the 20s and you get to find out all kinds of stuff who stole what from the blacks? blackface was done by blacks mostly And it was it was the reason that when white started doing. It was because there was an appropriation right, and That was no good You could blacks could do black face so if they're sort of black Pete is black underneath the black face

2:26:09 then it should be okay. Do we have any idea whether he was or not? No, I have no idea It's uh... the whole thing is just troubling and it really shows what was a... Was it Brendan who was talking about the clash of civilizations? This is really it you're really seeing this happening in Europe now And this gonna be very very problematic Although wait for the outrage when Playboy is going to feature a Muslim woman In a Hijab. Yeah, in a hijab. Naked? No not naked no What's the point? Well I think they'll have problems anyway i think it's a very dangerous thing to do you know we can't be doing that we can't be drawing cartoons yeah can't be full around well hey my buddy Teofil Hall was killed because he made a movie about uh muslim women and what they can and can't do yeah be careful I mean I'm all for free speech and I think definitely do it but hmm

Bill McKibben, Climate Change as World War III

Environmentalist Bill McKibben wrote an article for the New Republic arguing that climate change should be viewed as a global war requiring World War II-scale mobilization. He characterizes natural disasters, droughts, and the spread of the Zika virus as "attacks" by an unseen enemy. The rhetoric is criticized as an alarmist attempt to justify radical economic and social shifts.

bill mckibben· climate change· world war iii· zika virus· new republic

2:27:11 You're not doing it. Although you complain a lot. Okay, well let's go jump to another topic since we might as well I didn't realize it but is all over the news World War 3 has broken out Oh okay so do I need to get my guns and my MREs? No oh but you have to go into rationing and all these other things because the unseen enemy is carbon All right, here we go. Well our next guest writes in the New Republic about quote a world at war We are under attack from climate change and our only hope is to mobilize like we did in World War two Quote day after day week after week saboteurs behind our lines or unleashing a series of brilliant and overwhelming attacks In the past few months alone our foes have used a firestorm

2:28:06 to force the total evacuation of a city of 90,000 in Canada. Droughts ravage crops to the point where southern Africans are literally eating their seed corn and floods threaten the priceless repository of art in the Louvre Our guest goes on to write, the enemy is even deploying biological weapons to spread psychological terror. The Zika virus loaded like a bomb into a growing army of mosquitoes has shrunk the heads of newborn babies across an entire continent. Panicked health ministers in seven countries are now urging women not to get pregnant And as in all conflicts, millions of refugees are fleeing the horrors of war. Their numbers swelling daily as they're forced to abandon their homes to escape famine and desolation and disease. World War III is well and truly underway, and we are losing." Those are the words of Bill McKibben. Wow!

CHAPTER 41 / 45 Discussion

Zika Virus, Genetically Modified Mosquitoes and Dr. Fauci

Dr. Anthony Fauci discussed the potential for using genetically modified Aedes Aegypti mosquitoes to combat the spread of the Zika virus. The plan involves making the mosquitoes infertile or infecting them with Wolbachia bacteria to prevent disease transmission. While the FDA has approved controlled pilot studies, critics worry about the long-term environmental impact of "insecticide" through genetic engineering.

zika virus· anthony fauci· aedes aegypti· genetic modification· fda

2:29:05 That's World War III. Well, we are making strides in World War III then! I have a clip here from Dr. Fauci He is our friend, Dr. Fauci You recall when the swine flu epidemic came around? When was it H1N1? Uh he was the guy that helped We had to get all of the vaccines and do stuff And he had all the patents on the vaccines you remember him? Oh yeah that's right Yeah he is a cool guy Mr. Fauci is Hey he is right on the inside This is something...and I do like these audio recordings We're seeing this pop up more and more You see that happening with the political candidates. We need more of this, these iPhones and your smartphones are good people you got to record stuff it's really really worthwhile so here's Fauci and the idea is I think this has been discussed on the show before is to genetically modify the mosquito that carries the Zika virus which is which one again John?

2:29:58 I some day, I don't remember. No, but it's a specific mosquito and this found mostly in the southern states. So the idea is to genetically modify them so they no longer can basically genocide genocide of this particular insecticide maybe what would be called insecticide? Insecticide Yes. They're performing insecticide on the on the zika mosquitoes. Well, when people talk about genetically modified anything there's always a segment of the population that pushes back. On this table it would be so and you know we put some degrees in which you don't want to perturb the environment in an irreversible way that might have unintended consequences but the idea of suppressing particularly these egyptians mosquito to the point where they would be infertile not being able

2:30:48 appropriate to bring it with them. That can be done, at least as we've shown in pilot studies by genetically modifying mosquito or even another thing that isn't exactly genetic modification when you infect mosquitoes with a bacteria called Wolbachia that prevents them from being able to transmit a number of viral infections If you're going to do that, you've got to do a test and an environmental impact to show that you're not going to have deleterious consequences. And in fact the FDA has already given permission for in a controlled way to take a look at whether or not that would be effective and what the impact would be so I think there is a future for genetic research. What's your personal feeling about it? I think we should try whatever we have as our augmentary tools

2:31:35 to suppress mosquitoes that are the cause of diseases such as Zika and other diseases. You will never completely, nor should you eliminate all mosquitoes but there's a certain subset as Anne said the Aedes Aegypti mosquito is a bad actor so if we were able to suppress if not eliminate Aedes Aegypti I don't think there would be an environmental impact that profound at all I think there's somebody on a mosquito that would take their place, and you won't have to worry about that. But that particular mosquito is terrible! It bites indoors, it bites outdoors... And the other thing about is that unlike all mosquitoes, it just loves humans. It doesn't like any-it doesn't get distracted. It's not a promiscuous mosquito. You know? It only bites humans and that's a bad thing

2:32:22 I don't know if you could hear all of that. It was a little roomy, pretty bad. Yeah so very aware that people are against genetically modifying anything...I don't understand what and so they got their 1.1 billion dollars that was a part of the continuation bill uh so with the government stays open until December 9th so they got the money but what are they going to do is they're going to insecticide the mosquito? What happened to it's not even really genetic engineering he says it just infect the thing with some bacteria that I guess right Yeah, what could possibly go wrong? Well everyone gets tuberculosis the next day. So many different things I mean but why not work on a vaccine wasn't that isn't that the main idea to work on a vaccine we've known about Zika since 1956 we have a sample

Hoboken Train Crash, Investigation and Safety Measures

Investigators are analyzing the data recorder from the New Jersey Transit train that crashed into the Hoboken station, killing one person. The engineer, Thomas Gallagher, was found slumped over the controls but has not yet been fully interviewed. While some suggest the train was traveling at three times the speed limit, officials are also looking into crew members' electronic devices and toxicology reports.

2:33:07 or the Rockefeller Foundation as a sample from 1956. I mean, this doesn't seem like a real problem. Now, I think they're going to do that vaccine because there's too much money involved you have to do that big money maker. This other thing is another just another money grab for eliminate the mosquito which is probably not a bad idea if they can actually do it. I have a clip of an update as of I think Friday, of the Hoboken thing which happened on our shift. Yes and i still have no real update from our producer whose dad works there although he everyone remains finding it very strange Yeah we did anyone listen to the last show when during our shift this train wreck happened and it was suspected to be terrorism which is not coming up in the conversation

2:33:57 I think largely because any terrorist act that happens is going to be thought of as anything else, because we don't want Trump getting elected. believe that to be the case. Yeah, so it cannot be terrorism is what you're saying? So we have this here anyway...so here's the update as we now know this is more or less the update next two new developments tonight after that rush hour nightmare just outside New York City in Hoboken New Jersey The train crashing into the station The train did so much damage to that station the recorder and a camera at the front are still out of reach ABC's David Curley is at the scene again tonight for us

2:34:38 More scenes tonight of the moments after the crash. Passengers bleeding, dazed a train bell sounding and that lead car which slammed through the stop bumper flying into the platform. The damage so significant investigators can't get to all the wreckage only Only one data recorder has been recovered, which has been sent to the manufacturer to read out the data. The train headed south at 723 in the morning just after 8. Cameras catch it operating normally but 40 minutes later ending its trip it crashes into the Hoboken station. The speed limit entering this station is 10 miles an hour but some suggest that speed was three times that before it crashed despite the impact the engineer was found slumped over the controls

2:35:21 He's out of the hospital, has been in contact with investigators but has not been interviewed today. 48-year old Thomas Gallagher has been with New Jersey Transit for 29 years new details are the only fatality a mother 34 year old Fabiola Bitar de Kroon who had just dropped her child off at daycare Ramond Perkins who ran to the station after the crash talked to our Amy Robach You actually held her when she was taking her final breaths? I was like, miss. I'm not gonna leave you. If you're gonna die, you're not gonna die by yourself right now. Like imma be here with you And David Curley with us tonight and they've recovered one data recorder as you reported there David But they can't get to the other or that all-important front facing camera that you told us about last night here

2:36:08 That's correct, but they do have other video David. They've recovered from the station They won't characterize what they've seen on any of these videos as for the engineer bodily fluids are being sent for a toxicology report And the electronic devices of all the crew members are being examined David David Curley on the scene there in Hoboken forest again tonight David Thank you Okay, well yeah real information. Well what I don't what? I do not like is why I mean What's gonna happen here if it's not terrorism this poor schmuck who has not been interviewed for some crazy reason He's gonna get the blame Maybe it could happen we can't it cannot be terrorists in fact. I've already been reading This is so funny. I've been reading reports saying well You know we should probably have the Viper teams that's TSA Viper and

2:36:57 We should probably have them, you know checking people and going through a checkpoint when we get onto the train because it's all very dangerous. Which completely counteracts President Obama's words! Of course I do! Imagine boarding a train in the center of the city no racing to an airport And across the terminal, no delays. No sitting on the tarmac. No lost luggage. No taking off your shoes. All aboard! Train's good, plane's bad... Yeah alright But you know, we haven't heard anything about the high-speed rail and these kind of promotions that went on three or four years ago. Although it's because those deals have already been signed they're done and we have this situation in San Francisco California and throughout California for the high speed rail to

Tech News, Yahoo Hack and Cable Box Regulations

Recent tech developments include the revelation that a cybercrime gang, rather than a state actor, was likely responsible for the Yahoo email hack. Meanwhile, ICANN has officially transitioned to international oversight, and the FCC has delayed a vote on unbundling cable set-top boxes. The proposed regulations aimed to eliminate annual cable box fees by allowing third-party devices to access content.

yahoo· icann· fcc· cable box· comcast

2:37:48 to Los Angeles. LA, yeah even though it goes into the Central Valley and really the only stretch looks like it's gonna be Fresno to Bakersfield or something like that What's in Bakersfield? The jail is not the federal penitentiary there thats about it I have no idea It makes nothing but sense high-speed train to the jail Get on the train! Good to go I don't think we need to do a full tech news segment, but i do want to mention a few things. One... Turns out Yahoo was incorrect it was not a state sponsor who hacked their entire email system It was a cybercrime gang according to some other security firm

2:38:32 Yeah, well that makes a lot more sense. Yeah of course it does. State sponsored once you get to this Yahoo database It's great thing if you get hacked all you have to say is state sponsored man. Therefore you know longer culpable. Sorry its state sponsored Of course ICANN has now officially transferred to the International Radio Television Union That is the names and numbers that is part of the DNS system which the globalists are all very happy about. That may be something to look out for this week, some talk about that and the FCC has delayed the vote on the cable set-top boxes. This is interesting to me. Have you been following this? No tell me! Yeah so the idea is they want to come up with a set of standards for set top boxes so that you no longer are locked into cable box fees and I think they did have a proposal

2:39:27 But members of the Federal Communications Commission could not agree on a set-top box proposal that requires cable operators to provide their shows and movies on alternative devices rather than just on the cable box. Yeah, I got news for you this is not going to happen television companies and cable television companies will hold onto this for as long as they can." Well wait a minute! I don't even believe it's true? I have Comcast And I don't have a cable box and I can run it through my sling box instead or I can run it into any number of devices. So far as the modem is concerned for my Comcast internet, I long since gave them their modem back and now I have my own modem that I put on a Motorola. They were all fine with it. No but you know what? This thing's different this is specifically about the content

2:40:23 So in the case you're talking about, you should be able to receive Dancing with the Stars on an alternative device. On all alternative devices let me put it that way. I can do that! Live? Yeah! Not all devices no way When my old VHS recorder will pick it up, I'm pretty sure. You understand what they're trying to do? And you can argue it but what they're trying to do is they're trying to unbundle the programming from the network and then networks will never do that! That's really what they are trying to do so you not a network... forget stations, you have content and that should be available on all platforms not just through the cable does that make sense

2:41:13 No. Okay, are you saying is the goal here to choose to unbundle like the HBO from Showtime? Because right now Comcast will have a deal but you just like the sports deal you get this this this this and for X amount of money You can't just pull one out Is that what this is about? I can't pull out my ESPN and just get that instead of all this other crap. Well, again, I'm telling you exactly what they say the plan was intended to bring more competition to the television industry and liberate consumers from an average of $231 in annual cable box fees so it's probably multiple tier where you should be able to pick and choose what you want in a package and you should be able to get that outside of your cable company's device

2:42:05 Yeah, well that's never gonna happen. It's never going to happen no it's not but there is a lot of noise about it But the fees for the cable box I think are just academic Could be yeah could be Cause like I said I don't have a cable box and I get all these channels Well you also have Direct TV No, I have the dish. Oh dish! I'm sorry. Hey you got your ESPN with the dish don't ya? Yes i do. I have had both DirecTV and The Dish and The Dish is better Right well I'll tell ya...I watched football yesterday What football did you watch UT vs OSU

India-Pakistan Conflict, Kashmir Surgical Strikes and Arms Sales

Tensions have escalated in the Kashmir region following "surgical strikes" by the Indian Army against suspected militant launch pads. Pakistan denied the strikes occurred but confirmed the deaths of two soldiers in cross-border firing. The conflict is analyzed as a potential driver for increased arms sales, with Russia notably shifting its strategy to sell defense equipment to Pakistan.

The other one's funny in Kashmir Pakistan is vowing to defend itself against what it calls Indian aggression after two of its soldiers were killed and cross-border fighting Thursday India says at launch surgical strikes against militants in the disputed line of control region between Indian and Pakistani controlled Kashmir Pakistan's prime minister called an emergency cabinet meeting over the latest fighting, which comes less than two weeks after an attack on an Indian army base killed 18 soldiers. India has ordered the evacuation of thousands of people and villages near its border with Pakistan." Yeah this is a mess! And why now? Why does this all of a sudden get sparked up actually I have a report that i'd like to add to this

2:44:09 Because I had the clip, we didn't play it. This is India was calling these surgical strikes which of course is code. Tensions threatened to boil over in Kashmir after India carried out what he called surgical strikes along the de facto border with Pakistan. A senior army spokesman said the operation had inflicted significant casualties on Pakistan based militants He claimed were planning a series of attacks strikes. The Indian Army conducted surgical strikes last night at these launch pads during these counter-terrorist operations Significant casualties have been caused to the terrorists and those who are trying to support them. But the military assault prompted a furious reaction from Islamabad, while it denied any strikes had been carried out over the border it confirmed two Pakistani soldiers had been killed and nine others wounded in the crossfire along the line of control. The latest strikes follow a deadly attack against an Indian army base in Kashmir earlier this month that

2:45:08 left 18 soldiers dead. India blamed Pakistan for the assault, something it's denied." You know this is such an old story they bring this back and I can only think it has to do with weapon sales? It must be something that we're doing because really the Kashmir region is just ugh how many people live there like 50 000 people who live there? No I think more than that crazy low amount So, you know whose side are we on? Who do we need to sell something to? Well were supposed to be on Pakistan's side in anything that has to do with India. And the Russians are the ones who usually sell to India. In a long term sense. Ah! Oh, I got it. Okay gee this was easy one Google search

2:45:58 Okay, so the question is oil pipelines close very close. So The question is why? Is this happening now we know that there's you know historical strife about this region between India and Pakistan We pretty much always think it's about oil or more guns or something else Well here it is from September 28th Russia's new approach to Pakistan It's all about arms sales There you go Russia's selling to Pakistan will sell to India. That said, that's a switcheroo switching roles but it's an interesting one is probably because we've been screwing around so much with Russian and we probably stole a bunch of business from them in India. So they decided to go to Pakistan which is our stronghold of sales right? And move in on our territory well so either way it works either way maybe we're just like oh you got problems now what you need our stuff looks like they were set up

2:46:55 Su 35s So that's their jets, right? Their fighter jets. Yeah it's a nice jet. Here we go... Oh! We have the money here. I love this is like shooting fish in the barrel. 1994 to 2004 India purchased approximately 11.43 billion worth of defense equipment from Russia so that was India after the India-US nuclear agreement arms exports from Russia to India were 20 billion holy crap From 99 to 2003, India received 23% of Russian defense exports. Jeez Louise! So they're trying to do both sides now? We gotta look into this... Yeah, of course. The thing is they still both have nukes and they can start blowing each other up And there's also China Oh I get it makes nothing but sense China is also uh it appears trying to sell their stuff too Pakistan

Well the world we're just over armed... Well there's that All right, and those jets don't stay you know they need a lot of maintenance. Yeah real dough billion dollars a year in other Other it's always listed as other all right let's finish off with the pregnant guy This is this kind of a novelty story I think it somewhat There's issues with women versus men physiologically, which makes it...women are kind of built to carry a baby in some...because that's the genetic. They're just structured differently because they have to carry these heavy babies around

2:48:48 And I will say that the bone structure of women is different enough. You see them bending over where men can't do that, and if you're a bowler you know that because of the arm structure of a woman her natural bowling release is a backup ball goes in the opposite direction of a man's hook. There are all these issues this is not taken into account in the story at all it's just that whole thing is like well let's what if a man had to carry our baby? So they outfitted this idiot with a baby essentially As a, as to make a point. Is that it? Yeah, well here's the story. And several governors in Japan have joined a campaign for men to shoulder the burden of childcare and housework literally A new video shows them wearing 16 pound vests to simulate being seven months pregnant After grocery shopping hoofing upstairs and folding laundry one says he finally understands what his wife put up with In Japan women do five times the housework that man- My God!
