About this episode

Donald Trump dominates the cultural landscape following a New England Patriots Super Bowl victory that Robert Kraft and the administration frame as a win against the elites. While Lady Gaga navigated the halftime show with a drone-led rendition of God Bless America, media critics like Larry Haggett expressed frustration over the lack of overt political protest. Meanwhile, Melissa McCarthy’s portrayal of Sean Spicer on Saturday Night Live has reportedly forced a shift in the White House Press Secretary’s briefing room demeanor.

Secondary stories highlight a deepening divide in institutional trust as Scott Pelly of CBS News challenges White House claims regarding a media cover-up of 78 terrorist incidents. Whistleblower John Bates alleges that NOAA manipulated climate data to influence the Paris Climate Summit, while Australian geologist Ian Plimer argues that solar cycles, not CO2, dictate planetary temperature shifts. In the legislative sphere, Representative Dana Rohrabacher introduced the Respect State Marijuana Laws Act to protect local cannabis markets from federal interference, even as Steep Hill Labs warns of hydrogen cyanide contamination in California medical crops. International tensions flare as Paris erupts in riots following police brutality allegations and the Mayor of Ankara suggests man-made earthquakes are being used as economic weapons.

Linguistic shifts take center stage as the rise of T-glottalization in the speech of Kellyanne Conway and news anchors draws scrutiny. Comedian Bill Burr offers a blunt post-mortem on the 2016 election during a Conan appearance, while the fisting method of airplane snack consumption is identified as the ultimate cabin etiquette violation. The segment concludes with the mystery of Tom Brady’s stolen $500,000 jersey and a compilation of the president’s repetitive vocalizations.

Donald Trump, Super Bowl Analysis, Bing Bong Compilation

Donald Trump is featured in a compilation of repetitive vocalizations including "bing" and "bong" during various public appearances. The hosts analyze the Super Bowl results, suggesting the New England Patriots' victory over the Atlanta Falcons represents a win for Trump over the "elites" due to his friendship with owner Robert Kraft. Numerical coincidences involving the number three during the game are highlighted as symbolic markers of the turnaround.

00:00 And it sounded like she had hooves. Adam Curry, John C. DeVora. It's Thursday, February 9th, 2017. This is your award-winning GetMoNation Media Assassination Episode 902. This is no agenda.

Lady Gaga, Super Bowl Halftime Show, Political Messaging

Lady Gaga performed the Super Bowl halftime show, which included renditions of "God Bless America" and "America the Beautiful" accompanied by a drone swarm. Entertainment contributor Larry Haggett expressed disappointment on Good Morning America that the performance was not more overtly provocative or outrageous given the current political climate. The discussion notes that while some viewed the performance as inclusive, others expected a more explicit statement against the administration.

03:13 And the elites go all the way. They're like, we're going to crush this guy. We're going to crush him. We have the black guys crush the white guys. Although they had a white quarterback as well. It was kind of milk toasty and they, you didn't see much of them. They didn't talk about him. It was like that guy was not important. I saw MVP for the league. It's not important. When I saw the, uh, The Atlanta Braves, Falcons. I'm just messing with you. When I saw them, it was third down 33 yards. The clock was at 03 for the play clock and they failed. That's when I knew it was going to turn.

03:55 I should have taken a picture. It was third down 33 yards, 0-3 seconds. Oh, I see what you're saying. And that failed and that's when they came back. And it proves that the president has a slight but has a little edge over the elites at the time being. Okay, I like it. All right definitely a lot of threes in that one play you're right That's the play where they got I think he got sacked on that play Yes, and that was the end of it because there was this field goal range. They could have kicked the field go there There's no way if the guy how about him hitting the the post on the on the field goal, huh?

04:31 You don't see that often. I think it was the extra point. Yeah, whatever. Conversion, whatever it is. Well, you do see it more often than you think. You don't watch a lot of football. You see it a lot. That's correct. But you never see it where it makes such a noise. Yeah, that was a good one. Boing! Now, of course, everybody was expecting Lady Gaga to use her Super Bowl halftime show to send a political message to the president. Now I feel that she actually did I thought I liked it a lot of it was a great entertaining bit of course I thought it was the best I've ever seen and everything she did was actually political It was just done in with her music in a well way and you know in a good way

05:12 Yeah, she had, you know, uh, yeah, exactly. All the saying that saying, well, God bless America. By the way, did you see that? It's, you know, God jumped off a cliff. That was fantastic. Yes. America, the beautiful and God bless America are slowly taking over the anthem. That was, Interesting how many times that popped up and the drones that I thought the drones in Swarm formation behind Lady Gaga was pretty interesting. It was a good one. That was very good He now for me the flag if you read the Los Angeles Times everyone's so disappointed what a missed opportunity

05:50 Here is Good Morning America's entertainment contributor Larry Haggett. Well, I kind of wish we were sitting here talking about something incredibly provocative, maybe even outrageous that she would have done that would have been something that was appropriate for the moment. I said last week that I thought she would be political. She clearly decided to rely on the lyrics of her songs, right? She said she was going to do that. And her body of work is what is inclusive and what she's singing about. I know there are people who think the Super Bowl shouldn't be political and shouldn't be a venue for that. The President of the United States was speaking in the pregame. Our entire world right now is political and she has built her career on that. I'm not saying it had to be something incredibly explicit or overt, but she has made her life

06:27 Making incredible entrances wearing meat suits just doing things that we all raised our eyebrows about this had a certain coolness to it that again was very entertaining But I kept waiting for something that I didn't expect to happen that would have made people gasp. Oh, maybe people need to gasp Gasp, I'm happy she did. Why? Because... Where they trying to... The possibility for ruining her career is quite high. Why would she do this? What's the benefit to her? Because that's what you do as a woman and as you know all creative people are Democrats, liberals. Oh yeah, that's right. We've learned that last week. Yes, from John Legend. That showed. We learned that. Legend. Yes, we learned that. Well it's true. It's so true.

CHAPTER 03 / 39 Discussion

Melissa McCarthy, Saturday Night Live, Sean Spicer Parody

Melissa McCarthy portrayed White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer on Saturday Night Live, leading to media speculation that the parody affected Spicer's actual briefing style. CNN and MSNBC reported that Spicer appeared more subdued following the sketch, which earned high ratings in the 18-34 demographic. Rosie O'Donnell expressed interest in also appearing on the show to portray a member of the Trump administration.

07:05 Saturday Night Live, big program here in the US of States, Gitmo Nation. I don't know if you saw the show. I, of course, caught the replay. We probably could have talked about this on Sunday, but I don't think either of us saw it. What's her face? So far so good. What's her face? Yeah, she did sweaty Sean Spicer is what she did. Oh yeah, Melissa McCarthy. Yeah. Yeah. And you know, I did see that bit. Oh, you got it. You just got to listen to how, what the mainstream was. Now this is just, it's a comedy show, you know, and it's like, you know, they're already claiming best rating since November. Yeah. They got a 2.3, a 2.3 in the 1834 demo. Sorry. It's not really all that super duper, uh, buzz on the mainstream here. CNN.

08:00 Overall, I don't know if you guys agree with me. It was a little more subdued. It's the post-Melissa McCarthy. Exactly. It really was. He seemed a little bit very clear that the McCarthy improvisation on Saturday Night Live really affected the show. Improvisation on Saturday? When did they ever do that? So not only... What is she talking about, improvisation? Does she know what it means? No, she doesn't. No. But the point is, he's saying, Sean Sweaty, Sean Spicer is now a lot, he is affected by it. It has affected him. So he's, he's changed his tune. It really was. He seemed a little bit, very clear that the McCarthy improvisation on Saturday Night Live really affected Sean. And I think he was trying to kind

08:46 tone it down today to a great degree. Oh yes, MSNBC's thought the same thing. I think the most interesting thing today was that Spicer didn't make news himself and that's the first time he's done that. I don't think Melissa McCarthy's gonna have as much material as she had last week if he keeps this up. But it was mostly political blather as you'd expect. Well he didn't mention Melissa McCarthy for one thing so there's that. You know, of the 2.3 rating they have Saturday Night Live in the 18 to 34, how many people do you think actually know who Sean Spicer is? None. Very, very small percentage. So it's just it was purely political. I laugh my ass off. It didn't have the impact on the audience because of that lack of knowledge. Now, it did have an impact on the Hollywood elites. But so what's her name?

09:36 Rosie O'Donnell. Oh, you got something from Rosie? She comes out and she says, I don't have a clip, she comes out and she says, I thought that Melissa McCarthy's thing was great. Now she wants to go on the show also as a dude. Oh, well, there you go. Why not? Why not? Top of the patriarchy. I just think it's taking jobs away from men. It's unfair. Why don't you put someone in blackface and take the black guy's job while you're at it? Seems logical to me. We'll get to the war on men later. I'd like to hop into the alternative universe that we've been tracking. I have a couple more examples that popped up. We need a sound effect. We do. Now I did get jingles for Sanctuary City. I just don't have any Sanctuary City news today.

CHAPTER 04 / 39 Discussion

Brian Williams, Nicole Wallace, Alternative Universe Media

Brian Williams and Nicole Wallace discussed the concept of an "alternative universe" on the web where conspiracy theories like Sandy Hook being performed by actors are prevalent. Wallace claimed that President Trump has been "marinating" in InfoWars content, leading to a false moral equivalency regarding government plots. The hosts criticize Wallace for suggesting Trump is not an "actual president" despite holding the office.

brian williams· nicole wallace· infowars· sandy hook· msnbc

10:26 But we could choose the jingle if you want. Which one? I got the sound effect for going into the second dimension. All right. We are going into the alternative universe and we start with Brian Williams. Nicole reminded me in the break this alternative universe on the web also holds... It's on the web, John, just so you know. The alternative universe is on the web. Didn't you know? Well, I knew the web would be involved, but it wouldn't be on the web. Nicole reminded me in the break this alternative universe on the web also holds that Sandy Hook was done by actors. They have it all figured out. They show you the vans and the actors arriving at that school. Just the most outlandish claim you can imagine after the suffering of those families.

11:15 Process all this and keep it from getting slid into the truth category. Don't let it slide into the truth category It's very very difficult to Heidi's point about info wars is really really important here because when I heard President Trump, you know talk about all of the killers I'm thinking here's somebody who has been marinating for a long time in info war. Marinating? Yes, marinating in info wars you say he's been marinating Marinating? Madge you're soaking in it. Who has been marinating for a long time in info wars wars, this sense that the US government has all of these plots. But I never thought I would ever hear a Republican president of the United States say those things buy into this false moral equivalency. And it's not just false moral equivalency. How is it a moral? How is any conspiracy theory a moral equivalent? I don't know. I'm glad you're just throwing they get a buzz term. They use it.

12:06 Yeah, yeah, what's wrong with that? And it's not just bias, it's a matter of being morally obtuse. Oh, morally obtuse. Morally obtuse. What does that mean? The show title. I'll write it down. Morally obtuse. I'm not just obtuse, I'm morally obtuse. What does that even mean? Well, we have to go to the Book of Knowledge to get it right. I think it means something similar to obscure or kind of off-kilter, hard to understand. That's my guess. Okay. Well, I am going to the Book of Knowledge as we speak for the obtuse definition. Annoyingly insensitive or slow to understand. That's what it is.

12:56 insensitive towards morals and slow to understand morals is how I would translate that. Morally obtuse. Yes. The definition of obtuse has nothing to do with morals. No. So, okay, I'm getting it. Yeah. Okay. I know what they're trying to mean. What are they trying to mean? They're trying to mean that there's an incentive that Trump. Yeah, it's always about Trump no matter who they're talking about. It doesn't doesn't get it. He doesn't understand. There's there's certain things he's got some rules and the things he's got to obey. You mean protocol and protocol tradition, right? Okay. I get it. I get it. So traditional. He's Trump. The president. All right.

13:41 Brian Williams was talking to Nicole Wallace there and she has her feet firmly planted in the alternate universe. See if you catch this. I know that he is reaching out to people who have experience in previous administrations. I'm not sure how some of those calls are being received because people watch the news. They see what's happening and people that have worked for actual presidents can't tell if he's serious about any of this. He's not an actual president, you see. How can you say that as a news professional?

CHAPTER 05 / 39 Discussion

Scott Pelly, CBS News, Trump Terrorism List

Scott Pelly of CBS News reported on President Trump's claims that the media intentionally covers up terrorist attacks, leading the White House to release a list of 78 incidents. The report highlighted typos in the list and noted that many of the attacks, such as those in San Bernardino and Orlando, received extensive coverage. Additionally, the segment addresses Trump's claim that the U.S. murder rate is at a 47-year high, which FBI statistics contradict.

scott pelly· cbs news· kellyanne conway· fbi· murder rate

14:18 People have worked for an actual president. I'm sorry. This is just our puppet joke president. No, it's she is living a marionette. She lives in an alternative universe. Yes, it's clear. So does Scott Pelly from CBS News. President Trump told the US military audience that there have been terrorist attacks that no one knows about because the media choose not to report them. It has been a busy day for presidential statements divorced from reality. Mr. Trump said this morning that any polls that show disapproval of his immigration ban are fake. He singled out a federal judge for ridicule after the judge suspended his ban and Mr. Trump said that the ruling now means that anyone can enter the country.

15:06 The president's claims, whether imaginary or fabricated, are now worrying even his backers. Particularly after he insisted that millions of people voted illegally, giving Hillary Clinton her popular vote victory. There's not one state election official, Democrat or Republican, who supports that claim. Oh man. Well, now since you stepped on my area of expertise, CBS and Scott Tully. I want to get a couple of these out of the way there. I had a rundown clip which you, I don't think you get the Western edition. Of CBS News? Yeah. No, I get the East, everything is East Coast. Everything. So when our... I do have it, I just don't watch it obviously. This is the Western edition. That same exact story about the list was done

16:03 And they took it, they softened the story a little bit because they don't need to really hound the Western edition. They don't have to hound us out here because we know that Trump's not the real president. Yeah, he's not the actual president. So this is the butt-slamming that we heard instead of the one you just played. The leadership of committees like this to prepare them for what was coming. Yesterday, just hours after the president accused the press of covering up terrorism, the White House released a list of 78 attacks it claimed the media had intentionally chosen not to report. It included attacks that got extensive media coverage like those in San Bernardino and Orlando. But it was riddled with typos, mentioned incidents that were not related to terrorism, and ignored many attacks in Israel, Afghanistan, and Iraq.

16:51 The list also did not include a mass shooting last month by a white supremacist at a mosque in Quebec. Senior advisor Kellyanne Conway. President Trump has not said or tweeted one public word about this. You want to talk about ignoring terrorism? Why hasn't the president offered his sympathy to our neighbors in the north? I will ask him, he doesn't tweet about everything, he doesn't make a comment about everything. Conway did say that the White House was sad about the senseless loss of life and may discuss it with Canada's Prime Minister who she said Scott could visit next week. Margaret Brennan at the White House. Well also at the White House today President Trump got his facts wrong again. This time in a meeting with a group of sheriff's officers.

17:34 And yet the murder rate in our country is the highest it's been in 47 years, right? You know that No, I'm pretty sure that's not true. Aren't we don't we know that it's the lowest ever am I everyone's butt-slamming I'd say that in a speech and everybody was surprised because the press doesn't tell it like it is It wasn't to their advantage to say that Well, FBI statistics show the president isn't just wrong, he has it backwards. Have a look. The fact is, the murder rate is close to the 57-year low that it hit in 2014 before it ticked up just a bit in 2015. Those are the most recent numbers available from the FBI. The president's false claim that the media are consciously underreporting the murder rate comes the day after he made the false charge that the media are conspiring to cover up terrorist attacks.

18:34 Whoa, you got butt-slammed! That's what you wanted. And exactly, and there was a little subtle innuendo throughout all the reporting on CBS. My favorite, I'm only going to play the innuendo because there's no reason to play any of the stories. This is the CBS George Washington lie. The new cabinet to be up and running since George Washington. Democrats argue there's a big difference between President Trump and President Washington, who famously could not tell a lie.

19:11 Let's just explain this because I don't think people outside of the United States know and maybe not even the new millennial generation. When I was growing up, you could not tell a lie and that was always prefaced or followed by George Washington, the first president of the United States, chopped down the cherry tree and his dad said, did you chop down that cherry tree, George Washington? And he said, I cannot tell a lie for I chopped down the cherry tree. Cherry tree? Cherry tree. Yes. Yeah, it was a cherry tree. And that's a bull crap story if ever there was. And that is again not relevant. I don't think it's relevant to the new viewers. It was an outdated reference, I believe.

CHAPTER 06 / 39 Discussion

Tim Kaine, Chris Matthews, Putin Kill List Claims

Senator Tim Kaine spoke with Chris Matthews about living in an "alternate reality" following the 2016 election loss. Meanwhile, Jon Favreau discussed Bill O'Reilly's interview with Trump, specifically addressing the comparison between U.S. actions and Vladimir Putin's alleged targeting of political opponents. The discussion touches on the deaths of Boris Nemtsov and Alexander Litvinenko as examples of Russian state-sponsored violence.

tim kaine· chris matthews· vladimir putin· alexander litvinenko· jon favreau

19:54 I knew the reference, you knew the reference, but if you're gonna be reasonable about these references, many of them are outdated. They're just like callbacks to something. You'll say, I do them on the show every once in a while, do some callback to something from Luke. But it's only for the two or three jokers in our audience, our two or three producers who get the joke and they always email, I got it, I got the joke, I know what you were talking about. Okay, yes a little too inside baseball gonna get back to the alternate reality. Yes, go back right back We'll get or do we have to go back or do we leave? I think we should go into Here is Chris Matthews with Tim Cain. How's it going for you and Secretary Clinton these days? I mean we think about yeah, I do once in a while I wonder cuz I think he did a good job running and they you know

20:39 the zeitgeist wasn't quite right. I think it had more to do with the zeitgeist than anything else. Just the mood of the country was against the ins and for the out guy, at least in those states that matter. What's your feeling about the whole election just now? You know, I mean, it seems kind of surreal, Chris. I wake up some mornings and it seems like the campaign was a dream and I wake up other mornings and thinking I must be living through some alternate reality now. So it was a magnificent experience. This is the reality, Senator. I've got to include you. This is the one that matters. Oh really? You sure you've got the right one? You sure you've got the right one? He's got the wrong one. He was gonna say this is the one that matters. Well, maybe to you? Yeah, it's fantastic. This is, it's so prevalent. It's everywhere now. Um, podcast, uh, Pod Save America had Jon Favreau on, uh, speechwriter for former, well, for President Obama.

21:30 Quick little clip from that so yeah, O'Reilly pressed him on this and yeah This was about the Super Bowl interview that O'Reilly from Fox News did with the president So yeah, O'Reilly pressed him on this and he's like Trump said yeah, we got a lot of killers Do you think our country is so innocent which? The charitable explanation is that he's referring to Iraq and that the toll the civilian casualties the result of that enormous mistake were enormous but But there's just there's no way you can say that we target and kill political opponents or journalists the way Putin does I mean he's funding separatists in eastern Ukraine He which he is there's a long list of political opponents like Boris Nemtsov and Alexander Litvinenko who died from a radioactive

22:09 Plutonium that was slipped in his drink. I mean they're murder only happens all the time happens all the time United States Yeah, it's very Reagan did it coming back talking about Wow so as you may be talking about hold on a second is he may be talking about a President who sits there with a kill list and checks off names and then blows up a kid a 16 year old American citizen at a bar with a drone is he talking about that perhaps I guess that doesn't count I think that counts I would also say we spread cancer to Chavez and we tried to blow up... Yeah, go read Economic Hitman. Yeah, really tried to blow up the Cuban, but yeah, we killed so many people. So many people. But no, it's just not in that reality or in that universe. I don't know. I look at you brown people in sandy areas. Here we come to kill you. Now, luckily there was a little bit of pushback.

CHAPTER 07 / 39 Discussion

Michael Wolff, Brian Stelter, Media Self-Interest Debate

Michael Wolff criticized CNN's Brian Stelter during an interview, arguing that the media's constant defense of its own interests makes it a "ridiculous figure." Wolff asserted that the media should not be the story and criticized outlets like The New York Times and The New Yorker for abandoning standards to become opinion vehicles. He suggested that the media does not need the level of defending that Stelter provides on his show.

michael wolff· brian stelter· cnn· newsweek· new york times

23:05 just a tiny bit of pushback. And not so much on the alternate universe, but more on the media's constant bitching and moaning about the war on them or the war between the media and the president or the White House, I should say more accurately. And of course, what's the guy's name? The guy who does the Stelter, Stelter, Stelter, the guy in CNN who does the media show. And he had Newsweek's Michael Wolff on. What do we know about Michael Wolff, John? He's been around. Is he any good? Yeah, he's an old pro if that's what you're wondering. He's not like some new guy that just showed up. No, no, no, I just wanted a little background on him. Well, he did something I feel very brave, certainly coming from Newsweek.

23:52 And he pushed back hard. I think it's, and I mean this with truly no disrespect, but I think you can border on being sort of quite a ridiculous figure. It's not a good look. to repeatedly and self-righteously defend your own self-interest. The media should not be the story. Every week, in this religious sense, you make it the story. We are not the story. No one has room for one hour a week on CNN for this? uh... i a m listen i i i love your show i just wish you wouldn't turn to the camera and lecture america's virtues of the media and and uh... and everyone trying to attack attack it the media will be fine the media doesn't need defending in this moment we don't need it does not need defending by the media certainly thank you can't get on the you know and and so far the media is uh... uh...

24:52 I mean, the New York Times front page looks like it's 1938 in Germany every day. No, it does not. Give me a break. Yes, it does. The New Yorker is, as I say, has left all of its standards behind and now become an opinion vehicle constantly. Is he looking to become a statistic in the unemployment figures or what is he doing? This is not a good... He's got a clue. He already knows he's going to have to write books for the rest. He's a book guy. You know always hang in there because books are our listeners supported readers supported. Yes, that's correct books are the best buy a book enough The books not paid for by advertisers. It's paid for by books. That's right. That's true A little bit longer clip, but something we have to listen to is a new celebrity video About the president not how stupid he is and how horrible he is so we got a bunch of celebrities and

CHAPTER 08 / 39 Discussion

Funny Or Die, Alternative Constitution, Celebrity Political Video

Funny Or Die released a celebrity-filled video satirizing President Trump's executive orders by claiming he is reading from an "alternative constitution." The video features actors suggesting Trump was given a cursed version of the document as a teenager and is following a different Statue of Liberty sent by Russia. The celebrities jokingly urge viewers to swap his documents for the real Constitution, the Gettysburg Address, and McDonald's nutrition facts.

25:48 And they're coming in and out? Just like, is it a white background? No, black. Black background this time. Black background, in and out. That's pretty radical. In and out. You'll recognize some of the voices. It's all actors. If you see the video, you'll recognize it. Are these people bored stiff? Or are they waiting for the Oscars and they're just twiddling their thumbs? Are they doing these things for free on the side? Well, it's for Funny or Die. Oh, okay. Well, that's different. So, funny or... You know, this is... It's a career move, I would say. Don't you think? It's career, yeah, career move. Because if you're a part of it, if you're a part of it, then you're... You know, he'd be a good character in my next movie. That's exactly right. It's basically an audition for these people. Oh, and one girl, the British actress, I forget her name. She has a very tight t-shirt on, like exposing her belly.

26:36 And it says, my pussy, my choice or something like that. It's like, oh God. All right, let's listen to this. And there will be some, of course it's from Hollywood. So there will be some F-bombs. Cause that's what seems to be okay these days. There's sure been a lot of hullabaloo going on with president Trump's last executive order where he banned non-citizens from seven predominantly Muslim countries from entering the United States. I love the phrase, and this is what you've been hearing throughout the past couple of days. Seven predominantly Muslim countries. I mean, the newspeak, the propagandistic way of speaking about these things is just spreading like wildfires, a virus. Apparently, the editor of, I believe, was it the New York Times or the Washington? No, it was the Wall Street Journal. The Wall Street Journal editor who's been, you know, they've been flooded with the same kind of millennial reporters that are all lockstepping with this other dimension.

27:31 He criticized him for using this predominantly Muslim phrase. Well, they should be criticized for it. Yeah, well, they should because it's just like what does it have to do with anything? It's total bullcrap. But let's listen. But the way they see it, it's all Muslims and it just is all about Muslims. It's a Muslim ban. It's a Muslim ban. There's sure been a lot of hullabaloo going on with President Trump's last executive order where he banned non-citizens from seven predominantly Muslim countries from entering the United States. And a lot of people, including me, had questions like, why is Trump doing this? Is this even constitutional? What in the fuck? Well, we finally have an answer why Trump is doing this. Historians confirmed the existence of another constitution. It's called

28:16 The alternative constitution. You gotta love it, John. The alternative constitution. Stand by. We only know of two copies, one of which an archaeologist found cradled in the mouth of a large golden snake pig deity hidden in a deep underground cave. And Trump was accidentally given the other copy when he was a teen. He's working from the wrong constitution and he doesn't even know it. Here, for example, is the normal constitution. Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion. However, Trump's alt-constitution goes a bit further than that. Adding, but if a handsome, brave, scared president makes an executive order that favors one religion over another, he shall only experience pure ecstasy. Of course Trump felt justified banning green card holders. His constitution says, They with cards of green should be kept away by any means, by wall, by force, or with magic beans.

29:10 It looks like many have tried to destroy the alternate constitution, but it has some sort of dark magic protecting it. However, even the alternative constitution doesn't explain all of Trump's actions. As it turns out, Trump has also been looking at the wrong Statue of Liberty. France sent us the one on Liberty Island, but apparently Russia sent an identical one a few years later? It's much smaller, in Queens, where Trump walked by it all the time growing up. This other statue's plaque reads a little different too. It says, give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, so that we may lock them in tiny rooms for days, only to send them back where we think they came from. Yeah, that never happened on Ellis Island.

29:54 fear outsiders fear outsiders fear outsiders fear outsiders fear outsiders it just it just keeps repeating that fear outsiders part he really has been living in a world a little off from ours. A world that's a lot dumber and a whole lot less thought through. Finally it all makes sense, right? He's not making these moves because he's an idiot. He's making these moves because he's looking at all the wrong stuff. Poor little guy. So please, if anyone's watching who might be near President Trump, swap out his cursed constitution for a real one as soon as you can.

30:31 is truly for his own good. If he doesn't, he's bound to keep making embarrassing mistakes like he did this weekend. Mr. Trump, if you are watching, which you may be doing because you Don't read it. And you have a true knack for finding examples of people criticizing you. We are very sorry. Your constitution is just not the one that we use. There are more copies of the real one. So that's the one we're going with. Help us help Trump by getting him the real copies of the constitution. The Statue of Liberty. Bible. Declaration of Independence. DC Transit turnstile numbers. The Gettysburg Address, Seasons 1 through 7 of the West Wing, and the McDonald's Nutrition Facts that we're all familiar with. It'll help him get on the same page as all of us. Because we are fucked if we don't.

CHAPTER 09 / 39 Discussion

Statue of Liberty, Muslim Peasant Origin Theory

A media report claims the Statue of Liberty was originally designed by Frederick Auguste Bartholdi as a Muslim Egyptian peasant woman to guard the Suez Canal. The theory suggests that after Egypt rejected the project, Bartholdi repurposed the design for the United States. The hosts dismiss this as "alternate universe" history, asserting the statue was modeled after the sculptor's mother.

statue of liberty· egypt· suez canal· frederick auguste bartholdi· muslim woman

31:16 Well, there you go. There's Hollywood. It's interesting. And by the way, just before we get off that end, I get my comment. Play the bull crap Statue of Liberty story since it was mentioned in that piece. Well, it turns out that one of the most potent symbols of American freedom began life as a Muslim woman. That's according to researchers who say that the Statue of Liberty was originally intended to represent an Egyptian peasant. The sculptor, Frederick Auguste Barthold of France planned for his work to guard the entrance to the Suez Canal. But when he was unable to sell his idea to Egypt, Bartholdi journeyed to America with his drawings of a Muslim woman in Arab peasant garb and transformed her into a Roman goddess of liberty. Bullshit! Fact check, false. Wow. I think the Statue of Liberty was modeled after his mother. How did that, where did this alternate universe story come from?

32:11 It came from the alternate universe. And by the way, while you're talking about this sort of thing, all these lefties that are on that clip that you played, all these Hollywood types, since when, just talk about your alternate universe, since when did any of them give a crap about the Constitution all of a sudden? Since when does Congress shall make no law against the establishment of religion have anything to do with this? It has nothing to do with it. No one is saying stop, stop Islam, no Islam. You can't, no one's saying that.

32:50 UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU Fear outsiders fear outsiders fear outside will obey you will obey you will obey Boom boom that's how it works. Okay. I got a whole thing. I'm leading up to something here jump So if you don't mind well before you go you have to play the ISO. Oh wow

CHAPTER 10 / 39 Discussion

Maxine Waters, Korea Gaffe, Impeachment Rhetoric

Congresswoman Maxine Waters mistakenly claimed that Vladimir Putin was "advancing into Korea" during a press conference regarding potential impeachment proceedings against President Trump. Waters was likely referring to Crimea or Ukraine but repeated the "Korea" error without correction from her colleagues. The segment also covers her arguments for impeachment based on alleged collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.

maxine waters· vladimir putin· korea· crimea· impeachment

33:37 ISO coming up. Oh wow, that's really good. That's from that porn thing you always watch. I know what that is. No, it's not. I like it. It's cute. You'll get it. It's cute. It's cute. It's cute. Oh wow, it's really good. Oh wow, man. So there's a lot going on with the with this executive order and the temporary restraining order. A couple of background or clips and some funny stuff. Maxine, Maxine Waters. She's going all out now. Did you get the Maxine Waters clip? That's what I have right here. Yeah Did you get the follow-up clip when Nancy Pelosi came on stage right after she did well? Let's see I'm gonna play yours because it seems like you have well no wait a minute

34:21 Yeah, my clip is longer, so let's see how we do here. Hold on. I'm wondering why... Play yours. Play yours, then. Okay, so here's the question asked to Congresswoman Maxine Waters. I'm wondering why is it appropriate to call for the impeachment of the president less than a month after him taking office? Yeah, you'll recall that she said, if it turns out he was behind that Hillary Clinton is sick, he should be impeached. Yeah, why? That's what she said. That's what she said. She is... Hey! Hey you people down in Los Angeles, good work getting her in there. She is nuts. Yeah, actually maybe I should just play that clip. Here it is. Here's where it all stems from. Well let's talk about where that leads to Congresswoman, you've raised a good point here. I guess for you it is important if we- What?

35:07 That's a good point? No, that was- She can't raise a good point. If we find out that somebody on behalf of Donald Trump was on the phone or in email relations with somebody in Russia or the ambassador to America from Russia and there was some sort of, as you call it, collusion, then what? Does that make Trump subject to impeachment? What do you mean by not legitimate? Just generally what do you mean by the term? If you find out there was a connection, there was collusion, your turn. Well, here's what I'm trying to get to. If we discover... that Donald Trump or his advocates played a role in helping to devise strategy. If they're the ones who came up with crooked Hillary, if they're the ones who came up with she's ill, something's wrong with her energy and the way that he basically, you know, described her in the campaign, I think that is something that would put

36:01 the question squarely on the table whether or not he should be impeached. Yes, well, okay, in your universe, maybe. All right, so now she's being questioned about this and she'll extrapolate a bit. I'm wondering why is it appropriate to call for the impeachment of the president less than a month after him taking office? I have not called for the impeachment yet. Oh. He's doing it himself. And Pelosi's going, I know Pelosi's laughing, but you can't actually see her laugh because her face is so... It's like stone from the Botox. Oh no, she's got so much Botox in her face that she could actually sell it. Hey, just stick the needle... You can just attach a little IV and we can put it right into your head. Exactly. Let me just say that the statement I made

36:48 was a statement in response to questions and pleas that I'm getting from many citizens across this country. What are we going to do? How can a president who is acting in the manner that he's acting, whether he's talking about the travel ban, the way that he's targeting Muslims— Muslims. —or whether he's talking about his relationship to Putin— Putin. —and the Kremlin, and knowing that they have hacked our DCCC and DNC, and knowing that

37:24 He is responsible for supplying the bombs that killed innocent children and families and um... What? She's so lost and you can there's someone behind her prompting her. If you listen carefully and don't scream through it you can hear it. That killed innocent children... Wait let me go back a little further. This is crazy talk. And knowing that he is responsible for supplying the bombs. He's talking about she's talking about Putin, Putin, Putin that killed innocent children and families and and.

38:04 Yeah, in Aleppo. And the fact that he is wrapping his arms around Putin while Putin is continuing to advance into Korea. Korea? Okay. I think that... Korea. He's advancing. She wanted to say Crimea or Ukraine, but out comes Korea. Yeah, and she stuck with it. I love this. Wrapping his arms around Putin while Putin is continuing to advance into Korea. I think that

38:42 He is leading himself into that kind of position where folks will begin to ask, what are we going to do? And the answer is going to be eventually we've got to do something about him. We cannot continue to have a president who's acting in this manner. It is dangerous to the United States of America. Mark Lamont Hill just called, said that's a great example of a moderate Negro. That's what he would say. Edie Oker. What did I say? Moderate. Oh no, mediocre. I'm sorry, mediocre. Here's the Pelosi thing I believe you were talking about. Would you at all be willing to work with the Trump administration on legislation that if they asked

CHAPTER 11 / 39 Discussion

Nancy Pelosi, President Bush Gaffe, Vetting Policy

Nancy Pelosi mistakenly referred to Donald Trump as "President Bush" during a press conference while discussing the administration's immigration policies. Pelosi argued that the travel ban is unconstitutional and immoral, contrasting it with the vetting procedures used by the Obama administration in 2011. The hosts highlight the confusion among Democratic leadership regarding the current president's identity.

nancy pelosi· george w. bush· barack obama· vetting· constitution

39:28 the congress to essentially come up with something that would allow for some temporary suspension, some new vetting. Would you be willing to work with the administration on something like that? We take an oath to protect and defend the Constitution and the American people. You don't take an oath to protect the American people, you dits. She was almost right. I was like, oh, she's got it. We take an oath to defend the Constitution. We take an oath to protect and defend the Constitution and the American people. And as long as we're honoring the Constitution, we're willing to work. Now, as President Obama did in 2011, we always have to subject our vetting to scrutiny to see if it's working. But that doesn't mean we institute an unconstitutional, immoral ban on Muslims coming into the country. Unconstitutional and immoral, no less. It's not unconstitutional, and we'll get into that in a moment.

40:30 Well, first we gotta go back then to the my version of the I only got the water I picked this thing up off because they kind of played it funny. Okay? This is this is the Maxine Waters clip the same one you played and then it's followed by Pelosi coming to the podium This was off of RT where they made the commentary She says Korea and there's a bunch of people around there. Nobody corrects her when Pelosi comes up She makes another gaffe. So we want to do how can a president who is acting in the manner that he's acting, and the fact that he is wrapping his arms around Putin while Putin is continuing to advance into Korea.

41:15 Well, you might have expected someone to correct the congresswoman slip during the conference for a bit of damage control. But the next speaker instead stole the show when speaking about the current US president. The assault, we've seen nothing that we can work, that I can work with President Bush on and I'm disappointed because I thought that there might be some interest because of what he said in the campaign. I'll give you borderline. President Bush, these people are lost. Insane. President Bush. Oh man, good one, John. Good one. And by the way, on that one, the visual is funny because Maxine Waters is still clueless as to her gaffe. She's got some, her aide is next to her, she's standing there behind Pelosi and this big tall black guy. And when she says President Bush, the black guy looks over and she looks at, she

42:11 She looks back at him because they both heard that and they and they they kind of blinked their eyes and shake their heads as if no don't say anything. Just don't don't don't buy it'll just confuse her more don't please don't don't don't. So President Trump did a lot of speaking over the weekend about the appeals court turning down or overturning his appeal for the temporary restraining order although I guess the the judge in Boston did agree with the a whole bunch of stuff but WAPO! WAPO writer. Ed O'Keefe. Do we know Ed O'Keefe?

CHAPTER 12 / 39 Discussion

Ed O'Keefe, Illegal Aliens, AP Style Guide

Washington Post writer Ed O'Keefe criticized the use of the term "illegals," calling it offensive to Hispanics and immigration advocates. The hosts counter this by playing clips of Bill Clinton using the term "illegal aliens" extensively in his 1996 State of the Union address. They discuss how the Associated Press (AP) style guide has shifted toward "undocumented," while "illegal alien" remains the official legal term used by the U.S. government.

41:15 Well, you might have expected someone to correct the congresswoman slip during the conference for a bit of damage control. But the next speaker instead stole the show when speaking about the current US president.

She's got some, her aide is next to her, she's standing there behind Pelosi and this big tall black guy. And when she says President Bush, the black guy looks over and she looks at, she

42:11 She looks back at him because they both heard that and they and they they kind of blinked their eyes and shake their heads as if no don't say anything.

So President Trump did a lot of speaking over the weekend about the appeals court turning down or overturning his appeal for the temporary restraining order although I guess the the judge in Boston did agree with the a whole bunch of stuff but WAPO! WAPO writer. Ed O'Keefe. Do we know Ed O'Keefe?

42:49 Only from the television I've never heard for it recently and so he was very concerned about President Trump's use of words I want to call him out on one thing here because this continues to be a problem that Afflicts the president and other people in this debate. He continues to use the word illegals It is about as offensive as it gets for immigration advocates and for Hispanics in this country. Oh And for O'Reilly to use the term illegal aliens, that also is a no-no in Germany. A no-no? Wait, no-no? Is it a no-no? It's a no-no. That's what Clinton said in that speech you ran last show. Not only that, it is the exact term that is used in all the legal documentation and law. It's the law of the land. We call them illegal aliens.

43:35 That's what they're called, illegal aliens. Bill Clinton called them illegal aliens. He used to be called illegal aliens by everybody. But who changed this? What made it politically incorrect to do that? When did that happen and who's behind it? Let's listen to Bill Clinton again from his 1996 State of the Union address. Not only in the states most heavily affected, but in every place in this country are rightly disturbed by the large numbers of illegal aliens entering our country. The jobs they hold might otherwise be held by citizens or legal immigrants. The public service they use impose burdens on our taxpayers.

44:13 That's why our administration has moved aggressively to secure our borders more by hiring a record number of new border guards, by deporting twice as many criminal aliens as ever before, by cracking down on illegal hiring. by barring welfare benefits to illegal aliens. In the budget I will present to you, we will try to do more to speed the deportation of illegal aliens who are arrested for crimes, to better identify illegal aliens in the workplace as recommended by the commission headed by former Congresswoman Barbara Jordan. We are a nation of immigrants, but we are also a nation of laws. It is wrong and ultimately self-defeating

44:52 for a nation of immigrants to permit the kind of abuse of our immigration laws we have seen in recent years and we must do more to stop it. I also like that he said work face instead of workplace that was kind of funny because that's you know Bill definitely had a work face Now, so I do understand that the use of the term illegals or aliens is an abbreviation, but come on already. How sensitive do we have to be? But according to WAPO! I want to call him out on one thing. I want to call him out. I want to call him out. I'm calling you out. I'm calling you out. I'm from WAPO.

45:36 I want to call him out on one thing here, because this continues to be a problem that afflicts the president and other people in this debate. He continues to use the word illegals. It is about as offensive as it gets for immigration advocates and for Hispanics in this- It's offensive for immigration advocates, really? I'm so offended by this. Migration advocates and for Hispanics in this country and for O'Reilly to use the term illegal aliens. That also is a no-no in journalism. What about Clinton? I think that's where I came in. Yeah, you did it again. It was a no-no in journalism. You know, the AP style is not that anymore. It's still a legal term for the government, but that kind of talk distracts and people will just hear that and that alone is disqualifying. So what the AP style says goes.

46:23 Is that true? There's the AP style? No, I don't have an AP style guide. What do they have to say? What was the term they have to use to be politically correct? It's about as offensive as it gets for immigration advocates and for Hispanics in this country. And for O'Reilly to use the term illegal aliens. That also is a no-no in journalism. A no-no in journalism. The AP style is not that anymore. still a legal term for the government but that kind of talk distracts and people will just hear that and that alone is disqualifying. Now our style is undocumented here. There are people who think... So are your facts. You should call it out that they did come into the country illegally and you should continue to say so. That's a debate that you're getting. Plural though, illegals is the problem. And that's going to

CHAPTER 13 / 39 Discussion

Bracero Program, Mexican Farm Labor History

The Bracero Program is discussed as a historical precedent for Mexican farm labor in California, where workers were legally trucked in to pick crops. While Democrats eventually ended the program citing exploitation, the hosts argue that the subsequent rise of illegal immigration has led to even greater exploitation of workers. They suggest the current system lacks the structure and protections that the original labor program provided.

bracero program· california· farm workers· mexico· exploitation

47:05 Get him and Republicans in trouble yet again with immigration advocates, and it's you know it's offensive. Oh, so offensive I'm so offended by you calling my god now the president actually uses aliens more than he uses illegals which I like because unless you eagles term. It's not like a... why is it offensive? Well, they're not ill... they are illegal. This is not a legal thing that they're doing. If you can say whites, why can't you say illegals? Instead of saying illegal immigrants on I mean undocumented workers if you can say whites and by the way it has to be undocumented workers not undocumented scroungers or undocumented Welfare recipients right it has to be undocumented workers as though. They're all working their asses off Although I would say a lot of them are especially in California where they're gardening for no pay and

48:00 Yes. They're being ripped off. Well, when I was a kid. Hold on, hold on. I want to hear you when you were a kid, but not yet. Stay with me. Okay? Please? Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Where was I? Ah, yes. The president uses the term aliens more than illegals. Which I think is if you had to choose between illegals and aliens, I would prefer aliens because, you know, I also believe there are other aliens walking around, the greys, you know, that kind of stuff. Whenever the president finds any aliens, okay, any aliens, or of any class of aliens,

48:41 Whenever the president finds aliens, whenever the president finds aliens, any aliens, or of any class of aliens, You amuse yourself. Actually, producer Luke sent that in, so I didn't do that one myself. Every time I give you credit for one of these fine productions, you recredit it to somebody else. Do you do any work? No, I'm just sitting here wanking. I don't do anything at all. That's what I imagine. Anything at all. Thanks, Luke. That's it. Let me flip the button on this one while I pull down my shorts. All right. All right, so. When I was a kid. Yes, go ahead. When you were a kid.

49:32 They used to have a program in California called the Braceros. Now the Braceros, this was all, every Democrat was, oh, this is terrible. The Mexicans are being exploited. They're being totally exploited and ripped off. And we have to end this program. And the Bracero program was bus loads of Mexican farm workers would be trucked in from Mexico. bus loads, like buses and buses and buses, and they'd pick the tomatoes, they'd do whatever they did, and they got paid. And some of them, they kept them in sheds, they were put up in these little half-built crappy places, but it was the summertime, so it wasn't raining on them at least. And the Bracero program was discontinued completely, and then the illegal alien program began. And as far as I'm concerned, it's worse because they're totally being exploited

50:25 to the point where it's a complete ripoff. The only people benefiting are somebody like... Okay, stop. Just stop there. Just stop there. The lead-in is beautiful. Here's what I spent my time on over the past few days. Immigration, the illegals, the program you're talking about, which up until the mid-90s, pretty much when the Clintons came in, was run by the United States. We would... we had a program, it would... we'd choose the aliens, I'm sorry, the illegals, I'm sorry, the undocumented workers, whatever you want to say, and we would bring them in. Around 1995-96 this changed and the organization that is responsible for selecting, selecting refugees to come to the United States is none other than the United Nations.

CHAPTER 14 / 39 Discussion

Refugee Resettlement, VOLAGs, Clinton Foundation Funding

The refugee resettlement program in the United States is characterized as a multi-billion dollar business involving the United Nations and volunteer agencies known as VOLAGs. The hosts allege that the Clinton Foundation and associated NGOs like Upwardly Global received millions in federal funding for refugee placement while Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State. They argue that the push for higher refugee quotas is driven by the financial interests of these resettlement organizations.

unhcr· volag· clinton foundation· state department· refugee resettlement

51:19 specifically the United Nations Refugee Commission. And this, John, I found out now I know why everybody's pissed. I know why. They're not... Listen, the people... Look, the folks who are pissed off about this are pissed off about the money. This refugee, it's actually the refugee resettlement program, is off the hook. We're talking billions of dollars every single year and all of a sudden it clicked. Everything clicked. Why Clinton wanted the Syrians to go to Detroit. Let me just give you a couple of statistics. So the way it works is the United Nations, UNHCR, which is their commission on refugees, they select the refugees and then we vet them as they come in.

52:11 The UNHCR has a billion dollar a year budget just for this selection purpose. They then contract with refugee resettlement contractors, also known as VOLAGs. It's an important term, VOLAG, which really stands for volunteer agency. And the VOLAGs are really an interesting array of organizations. I give you Church World Service, Ethiopian Community Development Council, Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society, International Rescue Committee, Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Services, Catholic Charities, US Conference of Catholic Bishops, US Committee for Refugees and Immigrants, Episcopal Migration Ministries, World Relief Inc. All of them receive approximately $1,900 just for handling a refugee.

53:07 just for handling. And there's another $2,000 if they can show that they donated some clothes and maybe a car. You have to show at least $200 that you've donated. And then you get money. And it's just money everywhere. It's from USAID. It comes straight from the State Department. And so I went looking for approved Volags. Well, wouldn't you know? that the Clinton Foundation isn't approved of Volag. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Meaning the Clinton Foundation received money which Hillary Clinton approved from the State Department. Now, they did a lot of this through third-party organizations such as Upwardly Global. This is a nice one, upwardlyglobal.org.

54:01 And upwardly global, you can find it everywhere on the Clinton Foundation website. I have all the links in the show notes, of course. It's a placement agency. They take highly educated, highly schooled refugees, which they tout themselves as, you know, they're 100% educated. They got, you know, great degrees and everything. And they place them. And again, they receive $4,000 per refugee just to place them. That's not even counting, you know, food, shelter, etc. If you see what we pay for, for refugees, we the American taxpayer,

54:39 I mean they have access to everything. They have access to all social programs in the United States. They receive all kinds... it is a business model. Very much like my nephew from Italy was saying, oh yeah, and everyone, you know, migrants are just basically a business model. Everybody wants that. Now within this whole gambit, there are There's an organization which has appointments from the president. It's a non-governmental organization and it's called... hold on a second, I just want to get it while I'm looking this up... President Clinton appointed Ira Magaziner to run this

55:30 This government organization, shoot hold on a second, I'm just finding what it's called. I'm a little messed up in my show notes here. US Committee for Refugees and Immigrants, there you go. So the US Committee for Refugees and Immigrants has a couple of appointees, one from President Clinton, that's Ira Magaziner, and President Obama also appointed a high-ranking person, let's get the leadership here, I'll tell you who it is. Yes, Lavinia Limon, is the president and CEO. She was, I'm sorry, I misspoke. Lavinia Limon was appointed president and CEO of the USCRI in 2001 and Exinder Nagash

56:20 Who's the senior vice president was appointed by President Obama in I think 2009. So this office of refugee settlement, they are the ones who decide which volags are gonna get money. So it's kind of handy if you have all the bases covered. Every single one of them. So I'm conservatively going to estimate that this is a 20 to 30 billion dollar a year business and everything, all the links, all these NGOs, the Clinton, and they have two of them, the Clinton NGOs that were receiving these monies as the CGI. Say million or billion. Billion, billion, John. Billion.

57:06 It is, uh, let me see what I have here. Oh, here's I have the fact sheet. It's crazy the amount of money. So this is of course why Bill Clinton wanted the Syrian refugees to go to Detroit because it's free money for them. It's completely... But why Detroit? Who gives a crap? He had a deal with someone in Detroit. He's got a buddy in Detroit. Remember they wanted to build houses. And then you have Shobani, the yogurt guy. Sure he'll take your illegals or your aliens. Sure, for $56 million in subsidy. No kidding. Sure Starbucks will do that. Sure Lumber 84 will do that. Forget about the money not going to American workers. They're getting paid. This is a big, big scam. Big scam.

57:52 And it's and when you read through it and when you get into it, you just get disgusted by it. The money and then this, oh yeah, we want to make sure it was okay. Bullcrap. We long ago put into law in the United States that we would accept at least 70,000 refugees every single year. That's in the law books. So if you're wondering why people are really pissed off, you really... I'm sure the sheep and the slaves are like, don't ban Islam and Muslims. Sure. Okay.

58:28 but this is about money and I will continue to search and I would like all of our producers help find me the connections. I guarantee you there are businesses who are official Volags and they are coordinated or partially run by congress people, senators. It's I'm telling you this is the scam. This is a massive scam. And there you have it. No one's looking at that angle. But of course not. It's huge. Especially the news media, they all they want to do, I don't know what their angle is, but if you look at who owns the news media, it's big corporations and they're like, they just, yeah.

59:12 They don't want anyone digging around anywhere because the next thing you know, they'll be digging around them. But I will say that when I found that the Clinton Foundation is a volag and they have two sub NGOs receiving each between four and $10 million a year just for placing refugees, maybe that, that right there. While she was secretary of state. Yes, yes, yes. Probably illegal. Yeah. I would say it's highly illegal. And they received in 2014, 2013, just the, what is it, the global, upwardly global, or as we say, up-glow. That's, hey, we hear it up-glow, over $13 million. Yeah, just roll it right out, everybody. Interestingly, that money went into the Clinton Foundation and then the Clinton Foundation gave about $3 million to Upwardly Global. Who knows what happened to the rest?

CHAPTER 15 / 39 Discussion

Bill Clinton, National Postcode Lottery, Amsterdam Visit

Bill Clinton was spotted in Amsterdam staying at the Pulitzer Hotel without visible Secret Service protection. His visit was reportedly tied to the National Postcode Lottery, a Dutch organization that has previously donated to the Clinton Foundation. The hosts speculate on the nature of his visit, describing it as a "collection call" for funds.

1:00:15 You know what happened to the rest? Yeah, it got stuck on something. What is this? A million dollars. It's being counted as we speak on Richard Branson's island. Speaking of counting, Bill was in Amsterdam over the weekend, Bill Clinton. I got lots of tweets and people saying, Hey, Bill's here. And the people who sent me pictures saying, I know that these are known Dutch security guys. Didn't look like he had secret service with him. And he stayed at the Pulitzer hotel. And of course I wanted to know what the heck is he doing? And then I found out. He was visiting the National Postcode Lottery. Oh yes, he's got some piece of that. He's collecting! How did he get- yeah, he's getting his thing. It's a collection call! It's a collection call! I wonder if he gets it in an envelope. A brown paper bag. Sit on that park bench and just pick up the bag. Don't worry about it. Don't worry about it. So, phew! To me it was...

1:01:13 Eye-opener and I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna stop. I think this, I think if we really, really focus on this, I think we can, we can get a lot. We can get a lot of cool stuff. Nice. And with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you, John Suh-yo and the C stands for CBS, but slam him! But slam! Devorak! In the morning to you Mr. Adam Curry, in the morning to all ships at sea, boots on the ground, feet in the air, subs in the water, and all the dames and knights out there. Yes, in the morning to the chat room, noagendastream.com, good to have everybody here, nice to see you, thanks for helping out, being good little producers. In the morning to Mark G. Mark G, the artist who brought us the artwork for episode 901. I have to say, one of the most fabulous pieces

CHAPTER 16 / 39 Discussion

No Agenda Art, PayPal Interface Issues, Oregonian Challenge

The hosts thank Mark G for the artwork of episode 901 and discuss the difficulties of using the updated PayPal interface for managing donation buttons. A donor named "Sir American Carnage" issued a challenge to fellow Oregonians to match his $999.99 donation by the end of February. The segment also addresses the need for producers to track their own knighthood status due to administrative challenges with payment platforms.

1:02:08 we have had in a long time. In fact, I'd like this as a patch. It would be a good...somebody already made it, one of the t-shirt guys made it into a t-shirt. Oh really? Oh I want that. I mean this thing is intricate, there's a little California, Texas, the all-seeing eye. It's got everything, all our memes, and it's just pretty to look at, and I think it's hypnotizing. Yes, exactly. Really, really good. So thank you Mark G and all of the artists who submit artwork to noagendaartgenerator.com. Your work is highly appreciated. And we also appreciate people who contribute monetarily for our value for value model. We do not take any corporate money, no advertising. We are truly funded by you and you're not a listener, you are a producer and we appreciate it and like to thank a couple people.

1:03:00 Yep, that's what we do. I had to go get the note that I noticed on this thing. I have a note. We do have a bunch of good donors, big money donors today, including Janonymous, J-nonymous at $999.99. He says it was email forthcoming. Do you get anything? Well, I would not know. Let me see if J Anonymous shows up in my email. Well, that's the problem. We don't know what is... And here's the real problem. I'm going to just point this out to people who do this. I found it! I found it! Okay, but I'm going to read it to express another problem. Yes. PayPal has changed. Oh.

1:03:42 a mechanism. They do this all the time. They change their interface and they, you know, some of it's good, some of it's bad. I have to go to site now. It's called a refresh, John. It's always bad. It never works. It's never better. But so here's an example. To get to the buttons, you know, those buttons that you create, people can, so you can, when you click on something that says, you know, one-time donation. So it's your pre-made scripts for buttons on your webpage. Yes. Or for email. I use the email versions. But there's buttons used to be very easily accessible on the on the kind of on the home page just click those buttons boom you're there now no no to get to the buttons is a nightmare you don't even know you don't even want to try to get to the buttons you have to go to the site map

1:04:28 and find the click to the buttons. And so when you go to sitemap, it's always spending me the lowest way to find anything because it should be if it's using a lot, you should be right there, right in front of you. But no, you got to go to sitemap. Well, then the other thing they've changed is that When the donations come in, you can have the notification forwarded to your email box. And so it would come in, so you'd always have donation from, like we have one from Michael Sosnen. So it'd be donation received from Michael Sosnen on the from line. It would be just right there. Now it just says donation received. They don't have the guy's name anymore.

1:05:11 So you can't search for the guy's name sucks in the email Oh man, because so you so to find the email it has to be from the guy directly But you can't go find the donation version. No PayPal should have a specific unit that is just for you know business They do. They're thinking way too...they're consumer-focused. They're not thinking...I don't think... That's very consumery. I will say the loss of the...or the ease in which you could get to the buttons for managing your buttons... Yeah. to make that just disappear. And I bitched about this from the, when they made the first transition to the new style, I always reverted to the old style, because you could do that. And then they ask you, why are you reverting to the old style? And so I'd always write in, because I can't find the make the buttons thing. I can't find the buttons.

1:06:02 So every time I went to PayPal, which was maybe three or four or five times a week or more, I'd go and I'd do the same thing. I'd type in, why you using the old one? So I'd tell them the same thing. I must've told them a hundred times. They paid zero attention to what anybody said, because I know other people had this problem. So, you know... Okay, so here you go. If we have people inside CIA, FBI, CDC, NSA, Maybe someone here works at PayPal and John has some very specific recommendations for your next refresh Yes, knowing the way these work. I'm gonna get nowhere you worked in these companies. I'm in these companies. They're stupid now We think it's better this way. What do you know did a study? We did a study and we asked three people and they all said it was better It's not like we're customers or anything the colonial the customers wrong. I

1:06:55 Alright, Jay anonymous note. Hey, hey, he says this donations for knighthood so that I can join my brother Oh, yeah, whom I knighted posthumously as sir Philly D Williams of the Silicon Forest spirit realm at the roundtable I'd like to be known as sir American carnage no jingle requests, but I have a challenge for my fellow Oregonian donors if I he said what? For a gonion was a for a gonion Oregonian. Oh, okay. Oh I have a challenge for my fellow Oregonian donors. If any Oregonian matches my 999.99 by the end of February in total donations, I will give another 999.999 at the end of March. 999.999! First I have to drop the penny in for him. There you go. So we're good to go. And I look forward to your ceremony, good sir.

1:07:49 Alright, yeah, it was there's something yeah, I don't know how we're gonna keep track of that, but if anybody wants to I guess with the Oregonian donor can make a little spreadsheet and he'll figure it out. Yeah, people are people can do this. But we do have to mention, because I think we received an email about this, you need to keep track of your knighthood status. We have, I mean it's gotten even worse now apparently with PayPal, we really don't have any perfect way to maintain that. So if you're waiting like, I'm not, where's my knighting? No, no, you have to let us know.

1:08:25 Yeah, so you can't claim a black knight because you didn't let us know. Now, the other one you run into when you get these checks, these machine generated checks, which we're getting a lot of, a lot of people will put their, like Sir Rick up there in Washington state, who used to complain in email, but he's got it on his check. Because the check...there's room on the check for a note and some other thing. There's a bunch of those...anytime you generate these checks that the bank sends out, there's all kinds of places you can put memos and notes. Put the information in there. A lot of people put their night name and stuff like that. Yeah. And it'll print out nicely on the check. It's great for us, for you specifically. Yeah. It's great for everybody.

CHAPTER 17 / 39 Discussion

Sir Snodges, Airplane Snack Etiquette, Fisting Peanuts

Sir Snodges from Suwannee, Georgia, donated to join the "902 Club" and requested a discussion on the proper way to eat snacks on an airplane. The hosts describe the "fisting method," where a passenger shakes a handful of nuts in a closed fist to pop them into their mouth, as a highly annoying and "nasty" habit. They contrast this with more polite ways of consuming snacks in confined cabin spaces.

1:09:07 Michael Sosnin, 90209, came in, I don't have his where he's from, but he sent a note, I do have his note. He donates annually, donates $1,000 every year. That's right. Which is great. He has another $100 donation some place later to be mentioned for something else, but I'm not sure why he did that. But he specifically wanted to become a member of the 902 Club. Once again, thank you for your amazing work. It's been one year since my last donation. There are many great show numbers and producership deals that I had to resist so I could donate 902.09 on my birthday, which is today, February 9th.

1:09:54 So do you have him on the birthday list? No. Probably not. I'm double checking as we speak. I do not, but I shall put him on now. Do we have info about his birthday? Well, he's born on February 9th. I thought maybe, no, he doesn't have any more info. Was he born this way? He was born this way, exactly. He was. Alright. I could donate that to Twitter, by the way. He's on the list. I also thought today may be a slow donation day, but regardless, this donation is long overdue. I needed an additional, I added an additional $100 for later in the show to get a new title. Oh, I see he's been upgraded. I humbly ask for a de-douching in karma, but for my title change I prefer the Dylan jingle over the new Bowie jingle. Hold on a second, so he has a title change as well? Yeah, he sent a second email in which I have to go to. Oh, so he's not being knighted, he's already a knight. No, he's been a knight, yeah. Oh, okay. He's baronet something or other now, I think. Well, it would be handy to know if I'm gonna... So what is he changing? Yeah, I'm gonna get to that after I finish reading this.

1:10:53 I hate to do this but I have to call out Uncle Bob Johnson is still a douchebag. Even though I hit him in the mouth over two years ago. Oh, an outrage I tell you. It is? Adam, I have an idea for a road trip. I wonder if you might speak to the Night Attack folks about their experience at Dragon Con in Atlanta last year. It would be a great opportunity to hit a lot of people in the mouth. Go look at that episode of Night Attack from Comic-Con and Brian Brush will be the first to tell you it was their worst production ever. So no.

1:11:31 Dragon Con. Dragon Con, yeah. That's what I mean. Dragon Con. It was horrible. It's horrible. It's not a place we're ever going to do a broadcast from, no. Okay, well anyway, his name is, his actual name is Sir Snodges, Snodges, Sir Snodges from Suwannee, Georgia. And let me get his other email here, which is... the result of my sending him a note. I should be moving from Knight to Baronet. Unfortunately, I have not been able to come up with a better name. It's just a non-creative manager of dudes named Ben, I guess. 15 years at Microsoft and another three at VMware. We'll do that to you. Thanks again for the best podcast in the universe. He does have a PS here which I think I'll read.

1:12:24 Because I don't think it's not personal. John, if you have time on an upcoming show, can you please describe the proper method of eating snacks on an airplane since you do not like the popping or fisting methods? Ah, yes, ladies and gentlemen, time to go. We should go back in time, but Just go for it, John. Tell us your peeve about the fisting method of eating snacks on an airplane. I see this on the airplane and it's very annoying and I think it will result in fights breaking out because it's just so annoying to watch. Guy takes his bag of peanuts and he throws a pile of them into his palm of his hand and then he makes a fist

1:13:07 Around the nuts and then he shakes his fist to try to bring a nut to the little hole stop stop And then he throws a nut in his mouth from his fist then he does it again He shakes and throws and shakes and throws it is annoying as hell to watch Oh my gosh, it just needed porn music. Your description is fabulous. I gotta produce that. There is that part of it. You can look at all these things as obscene, but that's exactly what you see. This guy shaking his fist and popping a peanut. It's nasty. It's nasty. It's very nasty. I agree, it's nasty. And whenever Tina and I are flying, we look at each other and I'm like, I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna fist him. I'm fisting. I'm fisting. I'm fisting.

CHAPTER 18 / 39 Discussion

Christopher T. Fenwick, Social Media Blocking Policy

Christopher T. Fenwick suggested the creation of "No Agenda White Papers" to summarize show topics for easier reference. The discussion shifts to social media blocking policies, where the hosts explain they block users for "puking in the feed" via excessive retweets or engaging in annoying, repetitive arguments. They emphasize that Twitter is used for show research rather than long-form conversation with listeners.

christopher t. fenwick· twitter· blocking· social media· white papers

1:13:53 Onward a little karma for him. Oh, yes, definitely. Definitely. And I've got karma also for Jane Anonymous there, of course some fisting karma. Yeah, Christopher T Fenwick Christopher T Fenwick has come in with nine hundred dollars from Emeryville, California. You have a note from him. He says, yes, I do. Well, I gave you a heads up on this. Yeah. What he's what he was suggesting is that we create a series of no agenda white papers, sort of cliff notes for each topic. It says, I know you guys are busy, but you know, yeah, this is a great idea if you'll do it or someone else will do it. We have one white paper we did, which was Brian the Gay Crusader, which is a fabulous white paper, has been cited in other research. If anybody has some specialty skills and they want to do a giblet. Yeah.

1:14:50 And want me or Adam or either or both or one of us to front it for them and rewrite some of it so it's a little more professional. That's always doable. In fact, somebody did offer to do a giblet on something with me. They sent me a note and I never heard from them again. Either that or I missed their note. But you know what the... Sure. So here's the issue. Now Fenwick, by the way, was also bitching about the fact that I had blocked him. Uh-oh. But I went and looked and I wasn't blocked. I didn't block. I guess I blocked him and unblocked him some time ago. I don't know why I blocked him in the first place. What is your blocking policy, Mr. DeVore? Yes, we were going to talk about this on this show. You have a list of things that we missed on the last show. One of them is blocking policies. Blocking policies. There's a couple ways I block. One, just somebody comes with annoying comments. Yeah, you're an idiot. Ah, you're stupid. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. That kind of thing. Blocked. Yeah, I've started blocking those too.

1:15:42 Yeah. The other one is the over retweeter. Yeah. Oh yeah. No, no. It's called puking in your feed is what it's called. I'm looking. Yes. Puking in anyone puking in my feet. So I look, I opened the page. I do once a day, I'd look at Twitter and I see the whole page is dominated by retweeted by the same person. Now stop for 20 of them. Stop for a second because I blocked someone for puking in my feed. And I, you know, I just blocked it. I didn't, because what he, what'll happen is someone will get into a conversation on Twitter and then argue with somebody and then put at Adam Curry in there and then just keep going on and on and on. And then that, so you can, so this guy, this producer, I'm not in the conversation. Why am I on the tweet? He sent me an email and said, Hey, you know, I'm not sure why you blocked me. Would you consider unblocking me? I said, I tell me what to, after what tweet did I block you?

1:16:36 So this goes back and forth and I got busy. I couldn't find anything per se cause it was a feed puke and I didn't see it until later. So six emails with this guy and then he's like, well, you know, so, so much for asking nicely. And I said, I said, okay. And so then I was like, okay, let me go see what's going on. And I find out he was puking in my feed. I say, dude, you're puking in my feed and that's why I blocked you. But are you completely stupid? you have a six email conversation with me, which you could have asked anything. I'd be happy to answer questions, you know, look at stuff, whatever you want. No, it's all about me. Whereas you can email me directly if you have something. So anyway, that's an instant block. Instant block. Yeah. Instant block. And, and, and when, you know, anyone who starts off a tweet with, I can't believe that block. So surprised that block.

1:17:34 Yeah. Yeah. So that's the blocking policy. Unblocking, we don't really have a policy. Well, I have two policies. For a while, I was keeping track of the people I blocked and I realized I had too many and I stopped doing that. And with the rationale, in other words, I clipped, I just did a screen grab. It's not that hard. and I put it in a file and I had, the file was getting too big and I wasn't gonna be able to do anything with it. So when people say, can you unblock me please? I thought, blah, blah, blah. And so I'd unblock them if I could, unless they were just one of these, you know, a person that was just mean or they were, it just is annoying. There's annoying people too that just, they get on some topic and then they just ride it to the,

1:18:14 It's unbelievable. You just get just I'm trying to clean up my feet so I can go there get some find some good stuff Maybe retweet one or two things and then get out of there And I'm not looking to get into a long-winded conversation with somebody over some minuscule issue Anyway, yeah enough. It's enough. That's enough already on I'm going to eventually quit this and be it not in the social media stuff at all So we need this for the show. Oh I Francis Sheehy's on the list here $720 from Worcester Massachusetts and Francis sent a note

CHAPTER 19 / 39 Discussion

The Camp of the Saints, Hillary Clinton Clips

Producer Francis Sheehy sent a copy of the 1973 novel "The Camp of the Saints" by Jean Raspail, which depicts a mass migration event into Europe. The donor noted the book's relevance to current events in Europe and requested classic Hillary Clinton soundbites, including "clippity-clop" and "don't laugh." The hosts discuss the origin of the "clippity-clop" nickname, which referred to the sound of Clinton's heels on hardwood floors.

the camp of the saints· jean raspail· hillary clinton· disciplined investor· book club

1:18:54 Princess M. Sheehy, to be exact. With this letter is a copy of the book, The Camp of the Saints. So I got this book, The Camp of the Saints, which was written in the 70s. It's about Jesus Christ reappearing in Africa and then making the whole country become vigilant. And then the Europeans all, you know, apparently run by the devil and all hell breaks loose. I haven't read it. I just know a little bit about it because when J.C. Buzzkill Jr. walks in the house, who's very well-read, Luke says, oh my god, what are you doing? This is interesting. And then he talks about his other well-read buddy who thinks it's one of the greatest books ever written.

1:19:35 So it's one of the greatest books ever written. Let's start with that. I could not find it on the No Agenda book club, writes Francis. So I thought maybe you have not read it. Indeed. It is a story quite similar to the immigrant invasion that has happened in Europe. I thought that Adam would be interested to know that I, like others, found No Agenda from first listening to the disciplined investor. Ah, a stock guy. Which led me to DH Unplugged, which led me to No Agenda. Horowitz should get a cut. Horr- no. Now ready? No. You got a pen? You got your pencil? I got my pen. Please give a birthday shout out to my wonderful girlfriend Francine.

1:20:17 That's it. Oh. And do we know what her birthday is? No, I guess he just says that. So Hillary is not around often. I still like, and he wants some clips because he's sending $720, I'd hope. He wants clippity-clop. He always cracks up when he hears don't raff. Uh-huh. And adios mofo never loses its appeal. Signed, Francis. Okay, don't raff. Clippity-clop. Yeah, I got Clippity-clop, Don't Ruff, and what was the last one? Adios Mofo. Oh, Adios Mofo, okay. Oop, that's the wrong one. I gotta drop that thing, somehow it gets in there and it's... Clippity-clop, here we go. Clippity-clop! Apparently even the Secretary of State needs... Wait a minute, where is the Clippity-clop jingle? Uh-oh. Hasn't been requested for a long time. Now we see flaws in the system. Flies in the ointment.

1:21:19 Clippity-clop! Yeah, let me- is this it, maybe? Just clippity-clop! No, that's not it. Clippity- I'll give it to you, it's good enough. No, no, it's not good enough. It's clippity-clop! Just clippity-clop! Don't laugh! Adios. Why are you laughing? Shut up! You've got karma That still wasn't the right one, but no that was the one no no there's one where she talks through it I'll find it. I'll find it. I'll find it. Okay. We'll put it in this is it. This is the one Okay, I'm gonna delete these other ones. Let's do that. They're just wrong oh

Rain Stick Success, Austin Real Estate Market

A producer from Illinois reported that the "rain stick" ritual performed on the show successfully brought rain to the Chicago area during a winter warm spell. Meanwhile, Baron Tyler Fox is moving from Munich to Round Rock, Texas, and requested house-hunting karma. The hosts discuss the Austin real estate market, claiming that overbuilding has led to a potential decrease in prices despite reports of high turnover.

1:22:04 James Brown, hardest working man in show business from Mundelein, Illinois, 333.33. ITM, gents, long time boner, first time donor, please de-douche me. Yeah, we'll do that right now. You've been de-douched. I was listening to episode 901 the other day when I heard Adam shake the rain stick for a Chicago producer. I couldn't believe it. On Monday night, we had some very strong thunderstorms pass through the area. The rain stick worked. I got a couple of notes. I got a couple of notes about that.

1:22:43 Even when it is supposed to be snowing this time of year, the rain stick brought weather warm enough to make it rain. Keep up the great work. I'd like a Hot Pockets, Obama no no no, two to the head, karma and mic drop. Thanks. Hot Pockets. That's not the one we wanted. You've got karma. Actually, that mic drop mixed nicely with the karma. I like that. It did. Yeah, it's a good idea.

1:23:34 Baron Tyler Fox, the night of the middle finger erection in Munich, Deutschland, 3.33.30. From the Baron Tyler Fox Night of the Munich, of the middle finger erection. Belated congratulations on hitting 900 episodes, gents. Your show just keeps getting better with age. I don't think I've missed an episode since early 2011, yet I find myself looking forward to each and every new show, even after all these years. Nice. To those who don't regularly donate, it can't be said often enough

1:24:09 Stop being a douchebag. Maybe the douchebags will hear it if it's said like this. Listen, is it clear? You must donate because 99.9% of scientists agree we need the No Agenda Show more and more with each passing year. Right? As for me, my donations too often accompany a need for house hunting karma and this time is no different. Hopefully this one will stick for more than a year. We're moving back from Munich because of the business opportunity that is landing us in Adam's backyard, Round Rock, Texas. I will miss my German, Austrian, Swiss, no agenda crew and our amazing meetups.

1:24:53 Oh really, you're doing meetups? That's interesting. But I'd be lying if I didn't admit it to being pretty excited about attending my first Austin area meetup. How's that coming? Rental houses are turning so quick, oh yeah, now you're talking. Rental houses are turning so quickly in the Austin area that we can't even start looking until about one and a half weeks out from our February 28th move date. Gonna need that sweet, sweet karma to make everything work smoothly and in short order. Let's keep it simple and hit me with that house hunting karma followed by a little girl yay. Thank you for your courage, love and light. I just want to say something about that. They have overbuilt in Austin. You will see tons of deals coming along in the next few months. Guaranteed. Oh yeah, oh yeah. The prices are going down.

CHAPTER 21 / 39 Discussion

Donation Segment, Birthday Shoutouts, Title Changes

The hosts conduct a lengthy donation segment, providing "de-douching" rituals and karma for various producers. Birthday shoutouts are given for several listeners and their family members, and title changes are announced for newly elevated Baronets. The segment includes specific audio requests such as Yoko Ono clips, "F-cancer" drops, and "jobs karma" for those seeking employment.

1:25:44 So I'm not quite sure what he means by it's so it's turning so quickly you can only be out a week and a half. I'm not seeing that but it's overlying. Maybe they're lying, Joe. It could be. Alright here's your... You've got karma. A little clarification. I just saw this pop up in the chat room. People are saying, what is the origin of Clippity Clop? And so of course we played the jingle. It's Clippity Clop. The message is clear. Just Clippity Clop. When she was Secretary of State. We followed her very closely and every single time she would meet someone and do a little speech, she would come through the big doors which would open magically, very much like Putin only they're not gold. And then she'd have to walk on a hardwood floor before she got to the carpet where the press was. And it sounded like she had hooves.

1:26:41 And we don't know that she didn't. Not sure. We never saw the feet. We don't know if she had high heels or hooves. And so we referred to for a while as Clippity Clop. She had different names for her. She was like a Clydesdale. And so then somebody dug up a song, or you did, I don't remember where it came from. It's from a movie. Is it from the Marx Brothers? I don't remember. I think it's the Marx Brothers. Well, maybe. All right, onward. Yes. Philip Veenstra in Chatham, Illinois, 22525. And I don't have anything from him. And I think you send us another note or something. I looked in the email. You have it? I think I might have something. Let me see. No, it's an old one. No, I don't. No. Sorry. So, Philip, help us out. Send us a note.

1:27:35 Dr. T2222 in DeSoto, Texas, a newbie, I'm grateful to stumble upon this podcast through Adam Seedman's appearance. Aha! Nice! We score! It made sense! We hooked one! I'm glad I went. Need a de-douching for taking so long to donate? You've been de-douched. The show prep, deconstructions of the media, and clever potpourri of old school radio is excellent! Buttslam!

1:28:31 from Uncle Bob, unincorporated DeKalb County. Hey bros, I figured I'd better donate now because Mike Sosnino Suwane is probably going to call me a douchebag again pretty soon. Mike punched me in the mouth and has been calling me a douchebag ever since. Even though he has four human resources, he keeps trying to pawn off on me to make money and pay for their colleges. I don't know how he expects me to pay for their colleges and support this podcast at the same time. Besides that, I've been listening since show 600 and the verdict is still out.

1:29:07 I'm not sure I like the podcast. I might like take another 300 shows and make up my mind. Here's a bag of Q's to shut up Sosn. Oh, Sosn, that's our other guy. Sosn, he's the guy at the top. Sosnen, yeah. Sosnen. Alright. Shut him up and keep you guys going for a little while longer.

And she wrote a check in and sent a little note. You will know the big heart on it in the morning. John and Adam, another podcast I listened to reminded me to donate, they use clips from your show in moderation. Really? Wait a minute, so they use clips from our show and then ask people to donate to our show? No, she was reminded to donate our show by listening to clips on their show stolen from our show. What show is this? It's called, it looks like Middle Theory. Middle Theory. Yeah, Middle Theory. It's another podcast worth listening to and I've heard

1:30:56 I've heard them all. Oh, no wait, she writes in a funny, it's a little funny to read. I think you're confused by the heart. It's another podcast worth listening to and I've heard them donate to No Agenda. Oh, okay. Okay, so they've donated to the show by the way we're paying for it But we also provide a very easy archive anybody can get every single clip. We've played except. I don't publish the jingles in the songs anymore because when they just get I was hearing it and people here on the radio here in Texas. Oh, locals, the Trump jingle. Yeah. Local radio station use that. That's disgusting. It's OK, but just say, hey, you got that from the new agenda. Yeah. But a little publicity or something, then we yeah, use it all you want. All right. Well, I'm Philip Feenstra is saying that I have a donation note from him in my email, but I don't. Sorry, I just don't.

1:31:57 Send it again, dude. I do not have what's it may have some screwball email address And he doesn't use Veenstra in his subject in his headline in his um His name there as possible anyway, okay? He's listening live hey Phil. Hey Philip. Okay. She's got no requests Sir I give her a karma for sending us a heart You've got karma. Sir Robert Montoya, the Black Knight of Pleasant Hill. And Pleasant Hill, I guess, is California. 2-12-12. And he just says the Black Knight of Pleasant Hill. He's got nothing else to tell us. Thank you very much, Sir Robert. Jeffrey Kelly in Arnold, Maryland. $200.02. Thanks to Francis for hitting me in the mouth. And he would like a week.

1:32:55 Shut up slave and karma. Yoko's great gig in the sky at the end, please. At the end of the show or at the end of the show? Yeah, I'm sure. Well, let me just put it in there so I can make sure I get you weren't going to use it. You know, the people are, you know, back and forth on on the Yoko thing. Oh, well, everyone has something to say. It's the funniest thing ever. I agree. Here we go. Shut up, slave! You've got karma. Oh, I got the note from Philip. He resent it. It says, uh, Dear Adam and John, first of all, a correction for Adam on the pronunciation of my last name. I'm an American with a Dutch last name, and my family pronounces it with the long V and the long E. Veenstra.

1:33:50 Secondly, my wife, whose money this truly is, is an oncology nurse practitioner. She needs a fuck cancer for her patients. Love the show. Wouldn't know what to do if it goes off the air. I can't stomach watching all the MSM and local BS news channels. Please give a shout out in jobs karma to my eldest brother and sister-in-law at harvestandbloomsfarms.com in Rochester, Illinois. Okay, so we need the F cancer and Do you want something else there? Jobs karma, okay. Yes, okay. No problem. We can take care of this Jobs and jobs let's vote for jobs

1:34:37 All right, sir. Done. Taken care of. Thanks for your time. Next is $200 for Sir Baz Von Batteau, according to his email. And he, let me see where he's from anywhere. Yeah, he's from Batteau Bay in New South Wales. He's in Australia. And he says, he writes, I guess he wants to use that name. Although he doesn't seem to care if you use his name either. Hi guys, just a quick donation to celebrate and lament my 53rd year on this planet, February 7th. On the birthday list. Another one. Let me see. It won't be on there. Keep going. Sir Robert, hold on.

CHAPTER 22 / 39 Discussion

Audi Cornish, PBS NewsHour, Prompter Reading Critique

Audi Cornish of NPR is appearing as a guest host on PBS NewsHour following the death of Gwen Ifill. The hosts critique her performance, noting that while she is a strong interviewer, her teleprompter reading lacks the natural inflection of co-anchor Judy Woodruff. They also comment on her facial expressions during news reads, suggesting she appears uncomfortable with the visual medium compared to radio.

audi cornish· pbs newshour· gwen ifill· judy woodruff· npr

1:37:25 Shut up, shut up, Slick! So we have a new Gwen Ifill clone who showed up wearing her red dress on the news. They're auditioning for the co-anchor. Are you sure this is an audition? Well, I may not have the right beginning, but here's the way she's first introduced. Woodruff, Judy, said that they're going to have a bunch of different

1:38:13 Guest hosts this to me means they're auditioning. I agree. That's exactly how it works. Yeah, and you bring him in Yeah, you know everybody it's good to have you here, you know we lost Gwen Which is a true loss we really didn't even realize how good she was And we need a replacement. But I was thinking, maybe if we just have a rotation of guest hosts, someone will shine and we can use them. What say you, VP Dvorak? Outstanding idea. And that way we don't have to pay him as much and we don't have any guarantees. Right. And they may be duds you don't know. Yeah. Now, but of course we will have to look at everything. There was a couple of things with Gwen. We thought we'd like somebody hot on the show.

1:39:05 Well, we do have somebody lined up that she's very pretty and her name is Audi. It's the only problem. It's like her name's Audi. It's like Audi and E. It's like a belly button name. It's an Indian name, which would be good. It would be good for our most... Except she's black, of course, so that makes sense. Oh, yes. Well, we do want to have some color on the show. We've got the oldest white people in the business. Yes, and they're not getting any younger. Do we have an audition? We have intro on her first showing on the show itself. Intro, Audie Cornish.

1:39:48 Okay. Isn't she from NPR? I think she's from NPR. Exactly. Now here's the problem. I'm going to give you one more clip of her and this is going to be an issue. All right. She, uh, she interviews people on this show and she's been on two shows, I believe. She interviews people and she is a great interviewer. She's very personable. She's gets right down when she reads from the prompter. Oh, don't tell me we got another one who can't read from the prompter. We have someone who can't read from the prompter and worse than that, when she reads from the prompter, she does what Thom Hartmann does and she bugs her eyes. Like really wide? Big. Borderline popping out of her head. We have to work on this. We cannot have this. So here is a prompter read that's an example.

1:40:37 I'm sorry. I think I'm sorry. Yeah, just play it. In the day's other news, the Senate wrapped up an all night and all day debate to confirm Jeff Sessions as attorney general. Democrats argue that the Republican senator from Alabama is too close to President Trump and is hostile to minorities. Republicans defended him as a man of integrity. We'll look at the confirmation fight later in the program. Yeah, we're going to burn out. We thought that read was pretty shit. Could you please do that read again? That's all her reason. That's a what's interesting It's horrible. It is horrible, but I think most people wouldn't notice how bad it is, but if you hear on NPR When she's also reading she actually has inflection and she sounds authoritative here. She sounds like I'm just gonna read this I'm not quite sure what inflection I should put on it. I'll just keep it as flat as possible that might work my eyes are bugging out And her eyes are bugging out. Yeah

1:41:32 I don't know if she's gonna be able to turn the corner on her reads because, and here's the real problem, it's not just her reads being mediocre, it's that when they throw it to Judy, because they go back and forth, Judy, you then realize what a great reader she is. She is good, yes. She is really good. She is, and she's slick. She just sounds like she's talking casually. She's a beautiful reader. And then they slip it back to this woman. And then they go to Judy. So the contrast makes her worse than if they had just some slouch that was in there besides Judy, who's a really top drawer. So we'll see.

1:42:10 Hmm, but yes, I think when she does interviews. She's dynamite. Yeah, but this is a poor showing I mean we should let her on again. Let her try and We should have probably have someone work on prompter reading with her who's gonna. Tell her is the question I'm not gonna tell her. That's maybe politically incorrect. I'm not gonna tell her. I want nothing to do with that. No, no, no, no. There you go. Hey, um... Wait, wait, I got one more little... Since we're talking about reads and way of pronunciations, I hate to drop this one on you, but I want you to play this clip and tell me what you're hearing. Is this the bong thing?

CHAPTER 24 / 39 Discussion

Bill Burr, Conan O'Reilly, Hillary Clinton Critique

Comedian Bill Burr appeared on Conan and criticized Hillary Clinton's 2016 election performance, stating "she blew it" by losing to a candidate who frequently made controversial statements. Burr dismissed the excuse that the loss was solely due to "racist white guys," pointing out that those same voters had elected a black president twice. The hosts praise Burr for his blunt analysis and compare his style to George Carlin.

bill burr· conan o'brien· hillary clinton· george carlin· comedy

1:46:12 My algo on Netflix presented me with a comedy special from a guy had not heard from before his name is Bill Burr Yes, Bill Burr is on a lot of talk shows. He's a favorite on Conan. Yes, and that's what I have a clip of And I really liked his special, although at a certain point he went on one topic and just went on... Tea glottalization. There it is. Tea glottalization. That's the term, John. That's it, yeah. Team... let me just write that down. Tea glottalization. Hmm. Okay. Just something to write down. So this Bill Burr guy, I kind of like him. And he said something that

1:46:56 I think only could be on the Conan show and I think he's quite brave because clearly he won't be invited to any John Legend concerts. What did you think of Hillary Clinton at the inauguration? I thought that was for her to show up at that inauguration. It's the second time that... And she started crying a little bit again. I just, I don't know man. I don't know. I get sick of people making excuses for it. She blew it. See that? Nobody thinks that. You could hear a pin drop when he said that couldn't you? That was beautiful. I was like, what did he just say? See that? Nobody thinks that. She blew it! Look, you lost to a guy who said three things a week that would torpedo anybody else's campaign. How do you do that? That's like you're playing a football game, the other team throws 20 interceptions and you still... you're still figuring out how to blow it. At what point... at what point do you take responsibility? They try to say, they would be like, oh, it was a bunch of... I love the racist white guy thing. A bunch of racist white guys. They came out of the forest and they were just going, Trump, Trump, Trump!

1:47:57 It's like, where were all these racist white guys the last two elections when they could have voted against a black guy? They were fine. Oh, I don't mind a black guy, but this white lady, we gotta stop her! She's gonna take Wheeler's, McCoosey. So, okay, so not a lot of sympathy there for Hillary Clinton. No. You blew it. You blew it. You put the wrong team around you. You didn't generate enough excitement to beat this guy. I mean, it was unbelievable. The stuff that he was just tripping over one coffee table after another. And somehow you just couldn't get out in front of this guy. It was good. I think he's pretty good. I like him. He's a bit of a modern day kind of trying to move into Bill Hicks type George Carlin type territory. Needs a lot of work to become George Carlin, but at least he's just saying it.

1:48:46 Yeah, no, he, I've always liked his material. I was unfamiliar with him. I didn't know. He's like a little bit of a... What's the name of that guy who's got a bunch of comedy? He's got a series on I can't think of his name, but he's reminiscent of a number of people But they're always enjoyable gets good. He's good to get the cheap laugh and yeah, and he's not even a cheap laugh He's not a bigoted. He's not a horrible. You know hey apparently he has a podcast And he spoke at George Carlin's funeral gosh, it's guys been around a long time. I didn't even know about him

CHAPTER 25 / 39 Discussion

ClimateGate, NOAA Data Manipulation, John Bates

Whistleblower John Bates, a former lead scientist at NOAA, alleged that the agency manipulated data to hide a "global warming hiatus" ahead of the 2015 Paris Climate Summit. Bates claimed that high-quality buoy data was discarded in favor of flawed ship data to make the oceans appear warmer. The discussion notes that Wikipedia has since banned the Daily Mail as a source after it broke the story.

noaa· john bates· climate change· daily mail· wikipedia

1:49:23 There you go, do you mind if I open the gate I have nothing for the gate but go I'm ready for the gate That's right everybody, here for the Calamity Gate, a story I've been tracking for about a week and a half. Then I didn't want to do anything with it until I had some media talking about it. So now that the media is talking about it, we can deconstruct what's going on. This is about the whistleblower at the National Oceanographic and... Oh yeah, good one. NOAA, National Oceanographic and what is the other one?

1:50:02 Atmospheric Administration. The accusations are explosive that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration intentionally manipulated data to hide a 12-year pause in global warming, and that the flawed study was a major influence in the 2015 Paris Climate Summit, where Western nations agreed to spend billions to reduce fossil fuel use. That, according to John Bates, who recently retired as a lead scientist of NOAA's National Climatic Data Center. His claim took center stage at a House hearing today entitled, Making the EPA Great Again. We have every reason to be skeptical of that our scientific community is maintaining its integrity. In an exclusive interview Sunday with the Daily Mail, NOAA whistleblower Bates said quote, they had good data from buoys and they threw it out and corrected it by using the bad data from ships. You never change good data to agree with the bad, but that's what they did, so as to make it look as if the sea was warmer.

1:50:58 In a blog post, Bates skewered the study's author, Tom Karl, that he, quote, constantly had his thumb on the scale in the documentation, scientific choices, and release of data sets, all to discredit the notion of a global warming hiatus. The CEO of the American Association for the Advancement of Science today defended the NOAA study and said that Bates' whistleblowing is overblown. All he is doing is... That's a great... His whistleblowing is overblown. Okay. The CEO of the American Association for the Advancement of Science today defended the NOAA study and said that Bates' whistleblowing is overblown. All he is doing, quote, is calling out a former colleague for not properly following agency standards. This is not the making of a big scandal. This is an internal dispute between two factions within an agency. In a statement, Noah said, quote, it stands behind its world-class scientists but takes the allegations seriously and, quote, will review the matter appropriately.

1:51:55 Critics note climate research today is almost entirely funded by the government. A number of scientists have come to me telling me that where before a certain time period they were receiving government research contracts, afterwards, after it became clear they didn't agree with the CO2 theory, no more contracts. In a statement late today to Fox News, Bates said his whistleblowing was not based on any personal feud, but is focused, quote, on concerns he raised and the opportunity they will be addressed. As always, here on the No Agenda Show, we recommend you refrain from any small aviation, any hot tubs, canoes in DC area waters. Just be careful. Well,

1:52:39 This happens over and over and over again And it comes up pops up like a little blip and then it goes away, and then it's ignored according to warmest according to a lot of our listeners by the way We'll pay zero attention to any of this because I don't know how they got all in on it. Maybe a school. I think a lot of schools have been promoting this. I'm not sure. Well, Void Zero... Fascinating. Void Zero, of course, this was broken by Daily Mail and that story is now has is banned as a Wikipedia source. Even though it's a fucking source. Wikipedia, we have to know. Wikipedia.

1:53:18 Wikipedia has long since been busted as editing anything to do with global warming in favor of the theory. They've been notorious for not, they would not, they will not allow any sort of contrary skeptic kind of postings on Wikipedia. And apparently Daily Mail is completely all in on global warming. Daily Mail is banned as a source, period. Period. Yes. Daily Mail broke this story. This is funny. Daily Mail is banned, banned as not just this story. Daily Mail is banned as a source from Wikipedia. Okay. Well, yeah, that's what you do. You don't just ban the one story. You ban the whole operation because you know, they're going to come up with more stuff. Let's play a little jingle for him.

CHAPTER 26 / 39 Discussion

Ian Plimer, Geological Climate History, Solar Influence

Australian geologist Ian Plimer argues that climate change is a natural, geological process driven primarily by solar cycles and orbital changes rather than CO2. Plimer asserts that current CO2 levels are at a historical low and that the gas is essential plant food rather than a pollutant. He points out that past ice ages occurred when CO2 levels were significantly higher than they are today, challenging the consensus on man-made global warming.

ian plimer· geology· carbon dioxide· ice ages· solar cycles

1:54:01 The science is in! Science! Okay, three more quick clips from an Australian geologist. His name is Ian Rutherford Pilmer. Pilmer, I think, yes. Professor emeritus of earth sciences at, let me see, what is the university? University of Melbourne. Oh good, maybe we'll see him when we go visit. And he gave a little spiel about climate change. I think it was, I don't know if this was in Australia or UK, and it's just three short little clips I just wanted us to listen to. I do want to point something out that a lot of this that we're getting, and you're the same with the guy who started the Weather Channel, who's always been a skeptic. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he has some of the best videos with some good explanations as to what we're witnessing. There's also a movie called The Global Warming Hoax or something, which is quite good.

1:54:57 These are all the guys who are now out of the game Emeritus means he's retired. Yeah, and that means you're tired I think you had the other guy from Noah just quit and that then now they can tell the truth. They're out. Yep That's what we have to just all we can get is from the guys who quick as the other guys are on the gravy train I would say there is version of version of He's overboard. Okay, let's start now. What's interesting about his little talk here, he is looking not at, you know, 15 sources of data which are all questionable one way or the other, from predicting future. He is looking at the past from a geologist vantage point. I'm a geologist and the one thing that we miss out on in looking at climate change is the past.

1:55:53 climates have always changed. Climate changes in the past have been greater and faster than anything we experience in our lifetime. And sea levels have always changed. Not by the modest couple of millimetres that people are having conniptions about, but we've had in the past sea level changes of only 1,500 metres. That's a sea level change. And if we look back in the history of time, The atmosphere once had a very large amount of carbon dioxide in it. It's now got less than 0.04%. Where did that carbon dioxide go to? It went into chalk, limestone, shells and life. And we've been sequestering carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere for only 2,500 million years.

1:56:51 This planet has been degassing carbon dioxide since it first formed on that Thursday, 4,567 million years ago. Carbon dioxide is a natural gas. It has dominated the atmosphere for an extraordinarily long period of time and we now at a dangerously low level. If we halved the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, we would have no terrestrial plants. Carbon dioxide is plant food. It is not a pollutant. To use words like pollution with carbon dioxide is misleading and deceptive. Okay, that's just a little primer and... Yeah, well, it does fit in with our thesis.

1:57:38 This whole thing is besides the money side of it, it's to kill humans. Well, more importantly, are we in a warming state of the universe or the globe or are we in a cooling state? Yeah, the professor answers. But the past gives us a wonderful story. In the past we've had six major ice ages. We are currently in an ice age. It started 34 million years ago when South America had the good sense to pull away from Antarctica and there was a certain polar current set up which isolated Antarctica and we started to get the Antarctic ice sheet. We've had periods of glaciation and interglacials. We are currently in interglacial.

1:58:25 And during that 34 million years, we have refrigerated the Earth. But for less than 20% of time, we have had ice on planet Earth. The rest of the time, it's been warmer and wetter. And there's been more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. And what did life do? It thrived. Six of the six great ice ages were initiated when the carbon dioxide content of the atmosphere was higher than now. In fact, up to a thousand times higher. So we have from the geological evidence absolutely no evidence that carbon dioxide has driven climate. Again, be careful of small aircraft. Be very careful with this kind of talk, Professor Pilmer.

1:59:13 Final one, he tells us where the warmth really comes from. For some odd reason, the major driver of climate is that great ball of heat in the sky which we call the sun. You heard it here first, it's really quite unusual. And we change our distance from the sun. Every hundred thousand years our orbit changes from elliptical to circular. And we have a cycle of 90,000 years of cold and 10,000 years of warm. We're in one of those warm cycles now. And every 43,000 years the axis of the Earth changes a little bit. And every 21,000 years we get a bit of a wobble. Each of those orbital events puts us further from the Sun. Every now and then we get bombarded by cosmic rays coming from a supernodal eruption somewhere out there. And if the Sun's magnetic field cannot drive these away

2:00:08 we start to form low-level clouds. We've got extremely good evidence that this process has been going on for a very long period of time. Every now and then continents start to move, and they move at very rapid rates. They move about this much every year. And at one time a continent can be over a pole, at another time it can be at the equator. Those living continents change the major heat balance on the Earth. And that's the ocean currents. The oceans carry far more heat than the atmosphere. Every now and then, because of major geological processes, we'll get a great bulge on the ocean floor of new volcanic rock. That changes ocean currents. Every year we have 10,000 cubic kilometers of seawater that goes through new volcanic rocks in the ocean floor.

2:01:02 That exchanges hate. And there's a man who will die poor. There you go. He's already retired, so he's a numeritist, so he doesn't have to work. Yeah, but he'll die. He'll die poor. It's just how it works. Let me close the gate. I'm very happy we have that. It's always nice to have some alt-universe sounds on the show. To the gate, to the gate, to the climate gate. How can you believe that crap? Don't you know it's 97% of all scientists. Carbon pollution is killing us man. Of course it's not carbon pollution, it's carbon dioxide. What are you gonna do? What are you gonna do? Nothing. Nothing.

CHAPTER 27 / 39 Discussion

Dana Rohrabacher, Respect State Marijuana Laws Act

Congressman Dana Rohrabacher introduced the "Respect State Marijuana Laws Act" to align federal policy with states that have legalized cannabis. Rohrabacher cited President Trump's campaign promises to leave marijuana regulation to the states, particularly regarding medical use. The legislation aims to prevent the federal government from wasting resources on enforcing prohibition in jurisdictions where the drug is legal.

dana rohrabacher· marijuana· federal law· states rights· donald trump

2:01:57 You play clips like that till you're blue in the face mainstream media is producing the other is promoting the other stuff Bill Nye just got a new show I know saving the world Yeah, unbelievable. Yeah, I saw the trailer, but it wasn't worth playing you need the visuals of that moron Idiot okay, let's play this This is Dana Rohrabacher on the POT Act. Who's Dana Rohrabacher? Dana Rohrabacher is a Republican who is in Southern California in Costa Mesa, I think is one of his areas. And he is a old guy and he's been around forever and he has got this to say. Question?

2:02:41 Is the POT Act a California thing or a federal thing? No, this is the US Congress. It's a federal thing. Is this in Congress? He's speaking? He's speaking right there in Congress. There's a camera on him. ...on the campaign trail loudly and aggressively challenged the status quo. And we haven't had someone here shaking up the status quo for a long time. But he did so by promising to revisit a whole host of failed federal policies that have been crying out for attention for years, and in some cases, decades. One such failed policy has been the U.S. government spending billions of dollars

2:03:23 and wasting the time of federal employees, hundreds of thousands if not maybe tens of thousands of federal employees in order to prevent adults from smoking a weed, marijuana. Candidate Trump told the voters this was an issue to be left up to the states, especially when it comes to medical marijuana. At a 2015 rally in Sparks, Nevada, then-candidate Trump said, and I quote, the marijuana thing is such a big thing. I think medical should be happen. Yes, right. We don't agree. I mean, I think so. And when I really believe

2:04:11 You should be leaving this up to the states. It should be a state situation. I think in terms of marijuana and legalization, I think that should be a state issue, state by state." End of quote. I could not agree more with the president and indeed it is the very approach that I have advocated for several years. In this vein, I have reintroduced today, as I said, the Respect State Marijuana Laws Act. Huh. Interesting. Now it makes sense. I did not know this was in play. The Marijuana States Act, is that what he called it? Respect States.

CHAPTER 28 / 39 Discussion

California Marijuana, Pesticide Contamination, Hydrogen Cyanide

A laboratory study by Steep Hill Labs found that a significant portion of medical marijuana sold in California dispensaries is contaminated with pesticides like microbutanil. When heated, microbutanil can produce hydrogen cyanide, a toxic substance. The report highlights that while states like Oregon have strict safety standards, California currently lacks comprehensive testing rules for cannabis contaminants.

steep hill labs· microbutanil· california· pesticides· cyanide

2:04:58 Right, so respect the states. Just respect the states. Regarding pot. Okay, particularly medical marijuana. And now I understand this next news story, which I wasn't even sure I was going to play. This is from your neck of the woods, John, Bay Area, California, who have approved pot smoking, right? That's approved? Yep. Well, I think we need a little more government involvement, John. You cannot tell by looking at your cannabis whether it's contaminated with pesticides, residual solvents, mold. molds. Want to know exactly what's in your marijuana? This particular instrument here is a liquid chromatograph. Just ask the team at Steep Hill Labs. We see that cannabis that comes to the lab is often would have to be destroyed in other states. And that's because states like Oregon, Washington, Massachusetts and Colorado have either set limits on or banned certain pesticides for use on marijuana. And tonight

2:05:52 we're gonna focus on just one of them. Microbutanil, often sold under the name Eagle 20, is approved for use on things like grapes and hops because if you happen to eat some of it, it's considered harmless. But if you set fire to microbutanil... If you smoke it, if you heat it, it actually can produce a substance called hydrogen cyanide. Hydrogen cyanide is very toxic to humans. That's exactly why the federal government prohibits the use of EGLE 20 on tobacco. But remember, California currently has no such pesticide rules when it comes to medical marijuana. So how much EGLE 20 might you find on California's medical marijuana?

2:06:29 Well, we purchased samples from five different Bay Area dispensaries and since not everyone gets their marijuana from a dispensary We also arranged for the acquisition of some marijuana sold on the street And we sent it all all off to the lab only one of those six had no detectable pesticides. That's right, just one clean dispensary sample while three more had enough pesticide traces to make them test failures in Massachusetts or Nevada. Now our black market sample, it failed on nine different pesticide tests. But if you're thinking the street weed was the dirtiest, guess again because our last dispensary sample, a product sold as medicine, was far

2:07:08 are in a way the most contaminated, with microbutanol levels at more than 13 times the amount allowable under Oregon law. But now the clock is ticking for California to come up with its own safety standards. What pesticides will be allowed at what levels? And how will it all be tested for safe consumption? Most of California's marijuana is being grown, no questions asked. And the result is plenty of products you would probably rather not smoke. Interesting. And they do need standards. I think they have standards in Colorado, Oregon for sure. I don't know about Washington, but a lot of this stuff is edibles, which is a different problem. I will mention something about hydrogen cyanide. Cyanide is a non-accumulative poison.

2:08:00 For all practical purposes, you get a whiff of it once in a while and if you're in a lab, you'll smell it. And then you should also note that almonds and most fruit pits, if you crack open the seed in the middle, there's a little nut inside. Apricots have really tasty ones. The French usually use them in their jam and jelly making. You're supposed to put two or three of these pits into the Into the jam or jelly I usually give it that edge is that what it's about give you a little edge It's actually I think it's a it's like a disinfectant because there's enough cyanide in the pits to actually affect I think the chemistry of the jam and this all this is all does it have a carcinogen preventing properties

2:08:45 Dr. Kahne. Nobody knows. It might. If you want to really get a good taste of this stuff, and it's actually at a dangerous level only in apple seeds. Apple seeds, if you ate...it's always believed that if you ate all the apple seeds and like a couple of apples, you'd drop dead. Dr. O'Reilly Well, that would prevent cancer. Dr. Kahne. Yes. So let's mention a couple of things. Cyanide in fruit nuts and other places is absolutely delicious. That's what contributes the major flavor to almonds or ammons as they like to call them. But when you get to the fruit nuts, like a peach nut or apple seeds in particular, they're stunningly tasty. Hydrogen cyanide, unless it kills you,

2:09:30 it metabolizes and that's the thing you have to note. So you just, it goes away and it's not like H2S which is accumulates or carbon monoxide, which accumulates and the more you get little whiffs of it, it starts to build up and then you drop dead. Little tip from John. Yeah. You know, I didn't get a clip of it, but in Texas there was a news story running that veterinarians want to prescribe medical marijuana to pets. If they're stressed out. Oh brother. I know. Texas of all places. Texas. Texas. What do you do? You shoot, is it the old old-fashioned way where you blow the smoke into the cat's face? That was fun. I love doing that. The cat stoned man! Watch the cat it stoned and stoned! 210. Yeah, you can flip that one. Yeah, that's perfect.

CHAPTER 29 / 39 Discussion

Bong Appetit, Vice TV, THC Infused Dining

The Vice TV show "Bong Appetit" features chefs preparing high-end meals infused with THC, such as honey-glazed duck with cherry sauce. The hosts criticize the program as "stupid," noting that the participants appear already stoned before eating and that the digestive onset of THC would not produce the immediate effects shown. They argue the show lacks actual culinary insight and focuses primarily on the novelty of getting high.

vice tv· thc· bong appetit· edibles· cooking

2:10:27 Um, yeah, well, while we're on the topic, yes, I think it's time for bong appetite. This is not that this is my play on like all the veggies that you would get. the holidays. So we did THC for the puree. It's less than five milligrams. Man, that is so good. It's so f***ing like buttery. It's just like the texture of, you know, of parsnips is like sticks to your mouth more. You know what I mean? It doesn't like lump up as much obviously. It's like super creamy. I just want to eat the flour because I feel fancy. Oh, the flour does have some flavor to it. What we have next is the duck and the cherry sauce on the duck is going to have THC in it.

2:11:10 We have a little cocktail pairing with the honey glazed duck, a fig julep. It's like Christmas in your mouth. Exactly where you want it. Exactly. Yeah, so there's German haze turps in here. Just a little bit. Oh wow, that's really good. Does anybody want more cherry sauce? I'll take some. The cherry sauce, what has the THC in it? Another 5 milligrams. Thank you very much. You're welcome. Anyone else? Yeah, I'll take some. Alright, everyone's down. I think everyone's down. Go big or go home. I'm weird about duck, but this is really good. It's a texture thing for me. I mean, the texture, I always feel like, what duck is like.

2:11:54 It's kind of like beef a little bit. I'm starting to get to that point of like exhaustion and malaise You know that you feel around the holidays. I mean time yeah, yeah nap time. I think before we get there I We have a couple of desserts that are gonna come out in a second. Thanks so much for coming and bon appetit. Someone's getting cornhole today. Sounds like a recipe for success to me. Nice bon appetit. Now this is a new show, I guess, on Vice TV, which is now a channel on many cable systems.

2:12:29 And it's the stupidest thing I've ever seen. It's a bunch of stoners that are stoned without the food. Because for one thing, if you ate a meal with all this THC mixed in and those sauces, it really takes about two or three hours before it would have any effect on you. So it wouldn't be getting you stoned. So you have to be, if you listen to these guys, they're already stoned. And then they're eating this. They're eating, hey man, and so they're eating this food which is laced with THC and they're already wasted and we don't get any recipes, we don't get any insight, all we know is that this has got 5 milligrams and this has got 6 milligrams and it's just a show about these guys eating. It's the stupidest show ever. I need to watch it. You won't like it. There was a complaint

2:13:22 in the chat room that you could not have been more wrong about almonds. And here's what was interesting, someone else said, if you got a complaint about that, email adamandcurry.com. Really? Really, Douchebag? Perfect. Exactly. Yes. Really? No. Apparently it's arsenic, not cyanide in almonds. There's no arsenic in almonds. Okay, then I'm gonna take maybe arsenic in almonds, but that's not what giving is giving that flavor is Cyanide. It's a very specific flavor. It's John at Dvorak org. That's where you want to send your emails. If you send it to me You're not only getting deleted getting blocked so tired of that. Oh you baby. Yes, I am Hey one last thing before we thank some of our producers a lot of people have been tweeting what about Fukushima

CHAPTER 30 / 39 Discussion

Fukushima Radiation, Atomic Rod, Unit 2 Probe

Reports of extreme radiation levels inside Fukushima's Unit 2 reactor are addressed by nuclear expert "Atomic Rod." He explains that high radiation levels are expected inside a damaged reactor containment vessel and do not necessarily indicate a new threat to the public. The segment aims to deconstruct sensationalist media coverage regarding the ongoing cleanup efforts at the Japanese nuclear site.

fukushima· radiation· atomic rod· japan· nuclear energy

2:14:14 Now this is not really broken big yet, but we're gonna see it I think in the next few days. A report came out of Japan that there are huge radiation levels at Fukushima Unit 2. Before you go to that, I just gotta stop the show. Okay, hold on a second. Stop. I don't know why people make these comments and they don't even do the simplest of lookups. Can you get cyanide poisoning from eating almonds? By Jill Corleone, P-I-L-D, she's a nurse. Blah blah blah, almonds are rich in fatty acids, vitamin E, and fiber, although the almonds you buy at the grocery store contain a small amount of cyanide.

2:14:55 It's not enough to poison you. However, eating too many bitter almonds, which you can't get in the United States, may not be so good for your health and may lead to cyanide poisoning. If you suspect cyanide poisoning, go to your closest doctor, emergency room. Anyway, arsenic, I don't think you want to eat arsenic. If I knew that there was arsenic in almonds, I'd never eat an almond again. It's a rat poison. Anyway enough. Why bring this stuff up? Welcome back to the show so a lot of people claiming yelling about Fukushima what's going on. It's horrible. We're all gonna die

2:15:37 And I think you'll see some news stories about this popping up. So of course, where do we go if we have questions about nuclear energy? We go to our resident nuke expert, Sir Hot Rod Atomic Atoms. And I didn't even have to email him about it because he has posted a blog post. And he says, Newsflash! Radiation levels inside, measured inside the containment and shielding of a damaged nuclear reactor are high! That is about as unexpected as finding out that temperatures inside a coal-fired furnace are high enough to cause instant death to any unprotected living creature, including human beings. Atomic Rod says there's absolutely no reason for the public to be concerned about high radiation levels measured inside a nuclear reactor.

2:16:23 And it's in the show notes, you can take a look at it yourself, atomicinsights.com. So, you know, they measured inside with a probe, they measured inside the Unit 2 and yeah, it's supposed to be high there. So this story is getting manipulated and maligned into we're all gonna die and it's horrible there. But really in reality, it's just a probe went down, said yeah, high radiation, which is what you want. That's how a reactor works. so we can take that one off the list. Yeah, I saw his note too. Yeah, I didn't think much of the story. It looked like just some sort of typical, typical... I don't even want to... Yeah, no, that's why I'm prefacing. I'm prefacing a little bit so that people... because you know, this will be a story and now you can be on the lookout and let's get some new... let's deconstruct some media about that. If you have it, we'd love you to share it with us. I'm gonna show my support by donating to KnowAgenda. Imagine all the people who could do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fab.

2:17:22 One more thing before you start, John. Do not be worried if you want to know about the water leaking into the ocean, go to atomic insights dot com. Hot Rod Atomic Atoms has been involved in nuclear reactors using a nuclear sub for most of his career. The guy knows what he's talking about. I trust them. Sorry, chat room people. I don't think you can live up to him. Yeah. Arsenic. You failing me Smalls! Fred Van Leeuwen and... Fred van Leeuwen. Fred van Leeuwen. Fred of the Lions.

CHAPTER 33 / 39 Discussion

UK Parliament, Brexit Anthem, John Bercow Controversy

Speaker of the House John Bercow faced criticism for expressing his personal opposition to President Trump addressing Parliament, citing concerns over racism and sexism. The incident occurred amidst tensions in the UK regarding Brexit, with some Labour Party members singing the EU national anthem in the chamber. Critics argued that Bercow's role requires him to be a neutral arbiter rather than entering political frays.

john bercow· uk parliament· brexit· labour party· donald trump

2:30:48 Okay, I got a few things here. Where would you like to... oh, you know, something... I got a Gaean. But wait, before you do that, something odd happened in Parliament the other day. And this of course is... there's a lot of stuff going on in the UK Parliament. This relates to Brexit. And all of a sudden the ministers of parliament started humming and singing the European Union national anthem in Parliament. It was the Labour Party. Was it just the Labour Party? Pretty much. They're the stay in the EU guys? Oh yeah, the Labour Party. Because it's so good for the workers to be overrun by alien workers. Yeah, when you're part of the global new world order.

2:31:51 Oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, Tess! Miss Gibson, it's very good to you all the choir, but what I would say is... I personally don't mind singing but I certainly can't allow it in the chamber because before we know it we could hear other tunes and I don't want to get into that. So, you know, and some of them haven't quite got the voice on this side of the chamber as what they might have on there. So please, I don't want to sing off within the chamber. It's very good of you, much appreciated, but if we can just leave it for a little while. It's been a very tense week already, I just don't need any extra. Thank you.

2:32:34 Oh man, those guys. I got a couple of things for you. Well, since we're in Parliament. Oh, okay. Good. I have the end, I don't have the whole thing because it goes three and a half minutes, but I got some of it, which is the Burkow. What's this? I don't know anything about this. Burkow, the head of, The Speaker of the House. Ah, yes, okay. Who's not supposed to say anything like this that he's just about to say. No, he's supposed to, he's, yeah. He's a neutral arbiter. But now he's got to blow off his steam about Trump being a racist sexist because Parliament's given, given Trump a bad time for a long time. So, so, but, but this is another example. This is Burkow going on a little rant.

2:33:14 about how they don't want him to speak to Parliament. I mentioned in the newsletter. And when they pull back for the full shot, the only people sitting there listening to this is the Labour Party. The Tories are not even in the room. It was the most bizarre statement. It was almost like he was making a speech. No, no, this is not it. That's the counter. I'm sorry, which one is it then? It's Burkow. It says Burkow. Although customarily an invitation to a visiting leader to deliver an address there would be issued in the names of the two speakers. I would not wish to issue an invitation to President Trump to speak in the Royal Gallery. And I conclude by saying to the Honourable Gentleman this.

2:34:07 We value our relationship with the United States. If a state visit takes place, that is way beyond and above the pay grade of the Speaker. However, as far as this place is concerned, I feel very strongly that our opposition to racism and to sexism and our support for equality before the law and an independent judiciary are hugely important considerations in the House of Commons. Point of order Mr Skinner. Further to that point of order, two words, well done.

2:35:00 Well done. Well done, man. Well done. Now he's up for possibly getting kicked out. Oh yeah. You can play the other clip which is the retort some MP ranted about after he said he did all this. The most bizarre statement. It was almost like he was making a speech. It is the Speaker's role to protect Parliament, to protect a plethora of interests within Parliament. It's not his job to decide who comes to Parliament. This is for Parliament to discuss. Personally, I think we should embrace Donald Trump. He has been elected by the United States and we need to work with the elected president. It is wholly inappropriate for the Speaker of the House to enter the fray on this issue. Really, you know, the applause was ludicrous. You know, he needs to have a little more animated stuff. This is not as good as the other guy. It was just not good.

2:35:54 Not good. It's not convincing me. I got a couple of millennial emails which I'd like to share. First, Brandon. I'm not going to give his last name because he's, hey, I'm an athlete at the University of Arkansas. I have a vested interest in that. One of the Keeper's kids goes there. Majoring in business and marketing. One of the classes that I'm required to take is sociology. We were given a quiz in which I scored a 100. Dude, they're trying to brainwash us. Attached are the two questions I'm referring to. Thank you for your media assassination. Here we go! Question number four and I will give you the one, two, three, the four. It's a multiple choice. I'll give you the four answers. Are you ready? Yep! The president's immigration ban sparked nationwide protests which force our society to acknowledge the growing conflict between A. Democrats and Republicans B. Liberal and conservative values

A student at the University of Arkansas shared a sociology quiz that the hosts characterize as political brainwashing. The quiz questions required students to identify the "core American value" at the heart of the immigration ban conflict as "religious freedom" and the societal conflict as "real vs. ideal culture." The hosts argue these are subjective political interpretations rather than objective sociological facts.

2:35:00 Well done. Well done, man. Well done. Now he's up for possibly getting kicked out. Oh yeah. You can play the other clip which is the retort some MP ranted about after he said he did all this. The most bizarre statement. It was almost like he was making a speech. It is the Speaker's role to protect Parliament, to protect a plethora of interests within Parliament. It's not his job to decide who comes to Parliament. This is for Parliament to discuss. Personally, I think we should embrace Donald Trump. He has been elected by the United States and we need to work with the elected president. It is wholly inappropriate for the Speaker of the House to enter the fray on this issue. Really, you know, the applause was ludicrous. You know, he needs to have a little more animated stuff. This is not as good as the other guy. It was just not good.

2:35:54 Not good. It's not convincing me. I got a couple of millennial emails which I'd like to share. First, Brandon. I'm not going to give his last name because he's, hey, I'm an athlete at the University of Arkansas. I have a vested interest in that. One of the Keeper's kids goes there. Majoring in business and marketing. One of the classes that I'm required to take is sociology. We were given a quiz in which I scored a 100. Dude, they're trying to brainwash us. Attached are the two questions I'm referring to. Thank you for your media assassination. Here we go! Question number four and I will give you the one, two, three, the four. It's a multiple choice. I'll give you the four answers. Are you ready? Yep! The president's immigration ban sparked nationwide protests which force our society to acknowledge the growing conflict between A. Democrats and Republicans B. Liberal and conservative values

2:36:54 C. Muslims and Christians or D. Real and ideal culture? The correct answer is real and ideal culture. What? Yes sir. Yes sir. All the answers I thought would be good. You could say yes, yes, yes to all of them and I think we'd be within your, I think it'd be reasonable to choose all of them. The last one seemed like the weakest one. Let's try question number five. The core American value at the heart of this conflict is A. Freedom of speech B. Conformity C. Religious freedom or D. Material comfort What say you? I would say again we could you can make an argument for each one of those answers.

2:37:53 But what's the one that they chose and then I will say in advance, it's probably the weakest. Again, freedom of speech, conformity, religious freedom, and material comfort. The answer... Actually, I take it back, I take it back. Freedom of speech is not the issue here. So that's out. That's off. What was number two again? I'll have a limited list. Conformity. Can't be conformity. That's out. All right. Number three, religious freedom. Well, not really. So that's out. And number four, material comfort. Makes no sense. That's out too. So there must be another answer. The correct answer is religious freedom. It's a brainwash. That's bullshit. Yeah, that's totally not true. It's totally not true. But he got a hundred. He got it right. Yeah, he got it right. Now I received... I just want to see who this was from. This is from... Gosh darn it. I'll have to figure out which university this was from. It's a one... It's actually a two pager. I have a PDF. It's very cute.

2:38:56 LGBTQIA. Language is constantly evolving and these definitions are not by any means comprehensive. These are terms of self-identification and should not be used to label others without their consent. This is the LGBTQIA terminology. So, why don't I just read them off and if you want to know the explanation of any of these terms, I can expand on that. Hold on a second. Yeah, yeah, yeah, to stop this shit. That other quiz is still got me working on my brain. Okay, wasn't this a sociology class? Yes, sir. Yes, sir. He Sociology that that's current events those questions Yeah, again, what's religious freedom got to do with sociology? These are not sociology sociological questions. These are real. This is our current event

2:39:47 political questions. It's not the...is it a poli-sci class? Maybe? I think in a poli-sci class, yeah. It's very concerning that it's University of Arkansas where we have a student at this moment and that should be taken into consideration. It's one of the brainwashed kids, you've already said that. Okay, go on. Okay, this is actually producer Paul Pierre de Mont sent this to us. It's from Syracuse University and it's a helpful little guide to explain and understand the biological sex spectrum, the gender expression spectrum, gender identity spectrum, and sexuality spectrum, so that you can at least have the proper terms and understand what they mean. So I figured I'd just read them if there's something you'd like to me to expand and read the definition I'm happy to do it. Go! Ally, asexual, biological sex, binding, I think... Binding.

Syracuse University, LGBTQIA Terminology Guide

Syracuse University provided a terminology guide for LGBTQIA+ identities, including definitions for terms like "binding," "cisgender privilege," and "demisexual." The guide explains that these terms are for self-identification and evolving language. The hosts review the list, expressing confusion over terms like "packing" and "stud," and questioning the necessity of such extensive guides in a university setting.

syracuse university· lgbtqia· gender identity· pansexual· cisgender

2:40:43 Binding. The act of pressing one's breast to one's chest with restrictive materials to have the appearance of a more masculine chest. Wow, that's new for me. Okay, we continue. Bisexual. Butch. Let's read butch. A term typically used to identify a person with a masculine gender presentation, although this term has and is still used negatively towards members of the LGBTQIA plus community, this term has been reappropriated by some queer people to self-identify. So I guess if you're queer, you can use it. Cisgender. Ooh, cisgender privilege. This would be us. Yeah, I've heard that. Okay. Closet.

2:41:25 Coming out cross-dresser. Demisexual. Whoa. Ooh. Read that one. A person who is not immediately sexually attracted to other people. A person whose sexual attraction to another person develops after developing a relationship, not necessarily a romantic one. Often considered with the asexuality spectrum. Jeez. I'm a demisexual. Damn. Is that pansexual in that list? We're still a D. Uh, down low, drag king, drag queen, dyke, femme, flaming... Wait, you went to F, you left one out. There's no E's there, there's no E. No, D, you need, uh, diesel dyke. Come on! There's no diesel dyke in there, dyke. Although this term has and still is used as a slur, the term has been re-appropriated by some lesbians to identify themselves as the type of lesbian that are characterized as tough and more masculine in presentation.

2:42:26 Then we have FEM, Flaming, FTM, Gay, Gender Confirmation Surgery, Gender Bending, Gender Binary, Gender Cues, Gender Expression, Gender Identity, Gender Queer, Gender Spectrum, Gender and Sexual Minority, also known as GSM, heteronormative, heterosexism, heterosexual privilege, oh yes, the societal assumption and norm that all people are heterosexual. They are basic civil rights and social privileges that a heterosexual person automatically receives that are systematically denied to queer persons simply because of their sexual orientation. Really? Like what?

2:43:10 Homophobia, homosexuality, hormone replacement therapy, intersex, lesbian, lipstick lesbian, LGBTQIA, MTF, outing, packing, packing, packing, wearing something in one's groin region to have more masculine appearance. Okay. Really? Yeah. This is Syracuse University, John. Hey man, that guy's packing. He's packing bad. Somebody says that to me, they say the guy's packing. I think he's got like a 45. Yeah, like he's strapped. Yeah, he's got some... he's loaded for bear. Packing. Passing. He's the same thing, loaded for bear. Yeah, what are you gonna do? Polyamorous, queer, queer bashing, questioning, same gender loving, sexual... Pansexual. Yes, pansexual.

2:43:58 Someone who is sexually and emotionally attracted to people regardless of their gender. People who do not restrict their emotional and physical attraction to people identifying exclusively as male or female often use this identity. This term adheres to the idea of a gender spectrum rather than a gender binary. What has any of this got to do with learning something in a university setting? So as not to offend other people. That's what it said right at the top. So you need to use these pronouns and these descriptions. I'd be preoccupied with trying to remember what means this and that, and they don't even have a diesel dyke on there. We need a cheat sheet.

2:44:40 It could be an app. It could be an app. There you go. There's an app for that. An app. You just... What you do is you have your app and you face your camera towards someone and it goes bing bing bing bing bing. Pansexual. There you go. That would work. Okay, we have... It's almost there. Questioning, same gender loving, sex, sexuality, stud, trans, stud. Yes. Terms that typically describe a more masculine and dominant presenting lesbian. Oh, a stud is a girl? Yeah, lesbian. When I grew up a stud was a dude. Yeah, a stud was always a dude. No longer. A stud, man. A guy's a stud. No longer. Now that chick's a stud. A chick's a stud. What? Trans, trans man, transphobia, trans woman, transvestite. And that is it. We're done.

Paris Riots, Police Brutality Protests, Media Assaults

Widespread riots broke out in Paris following the alleged assault and rape of a 22-year-old black man by police officers. Protesters clashed with riot police, torched cars, and smashed windows in several districts. Journalists, including a crew from RT, reported being threatened and assaulted by groups of youths while attempting to cover the unrest in the northern suburbs.

paris· france· police brutality· rt· riots

2:45:39 Fantastic. Yes. All right. I've got two pieces of the last two pieces I have for the show. I have two pieces of what I consider unreported news. Okay. The first one is the Paris riots. Do you know about this? No. Yeah, of course not. No. Nobody's reporting it. No. Yeah. Huge riots in Paris as we speak. If you go to Paris, you might get to run into some riots. Is there a clip that I'm looking for? Yeah, it should be. I can't find it. Oh, I see, underreported. Sorry, got it. Had to look at the use. Well, the unrest began in the Paris suburb where the alleged rape occurred and has now extended to other parts of the capital. Scenes of chaos have seen windows smashed, cars torched in several districts. Security forces were confronted by angry crowds and at one point fired warning shots into the air, according to local media.

2:46:35 Videos have been emerging online showing demonstrators being detained and at least two dozen people have been arrested in the past 24 hours. RT's Charlotte Dubenski has been following the story in the French capital. Tensions high here in Paris. If you just come over with me here, you may be able to hear some of the shouts that people are saying. They're saying everybody hates the police. And the reason people are here in Paris protesting is against perceived police brutality. These protests follow an incident last Thursday in the northern suburbs of Paris where a 22-year-old black man was allegedly assaulted by police officers. The police officers are now under investigation. They face one charge of rape and three charges of

2:47:31 aggravated assault. They deny those charges but people have come out again in Paris to protest this perceived police brutality. We were in Aulnay-Saint-Bou where the incident took place on Tuesday and we were told that we had to leave the area by groups of youths. We had rocks thrown at us and we actually saw some journalists being assaulted by the same group who told us to leave. Now here in in Paris, you might be able to see there is a row of police officers. The riot police are out in force tonight and what we have seen are crowds being dispersed across these streets, almost being kettled into areas. And if you just look down here, you'll see that the protesters have also been throwing bottles and smashing glass, not just at the riot police, but

2:48:23 Also at us the media crews we have been threatened here tonight tensions very high here in Paris Thousands of people out on the streets to protest against police brutality. I Have always respected the French for their courage. They just don't take shit Well, I guess they did this guy apparently did I just find the story to be a little incredible from the perspective of I've heard of a lot of police brutality stories, but not one where they rape a black guy. No, no, very strange. I have two quick stories, pedo bear stories. You could call it pizza gate if you want.

Sex Trafficking, Haiti Arrests, Turkey Earthquake Theory

Haitian police arrested nine individuals at a beach club near Port-au-Prince in connection with a sex trafficking ring involving minors. In a separate story, the Mayor of Ankara, Turkey, suggested that "outside forces" might be using sophisticated technology to trigger man-made earthquakes to destabilize the Turkish economy. The hosts link these reports to broader discussions about elite criminal networks and advanced weaponry.

haiti· sex trafficking· turkey· earthquake· ankara

2:49:04 Cause of course. Yeah, you know, this is an interesting that you bring this up because I didn't think to bring it up, but there's been a lot of YouTubers, you know, these guys who do these fake shows that, you know, one of them that have been going on and on about it. It always starts off like this. Hi YouTube or hi YouTubers. That's how all the shows start off. They say that they're going to, uh, The guys are gonna be a whole piece of gate thing is is gonna be 75 100 politicians are gonna be arrested any minute Let me read to you the following first of all from Reuters could be fake news, but they're pretty good police have raided

2:49:50 a hotel in Haiti. Now you remember that one of the Clinton confidants was arrested taking children out of Haiti. I don't think she was thrown in jail, but you know, just let go. There's a lot of implication that those were kids for sex trafficking. And now, Haitian police have arrested nine people in connection with sex trafficking involving girls as young as 13, highlighting the dangers facing children in the Caribbean nation at the Calico Beach Club near the Haitian capital. So maybe we can find some stories where Bill used to visit that, I don't know. And then the other story which you just mentioned, which is not from an official source, but apparently an FBI whistleblower, I don't have a name for him,

2:50:38 estimates that close to 30% of the political spectrum in Washington DC is connected to the elite pedophile ring that has been infiltrated by law enforcement with quote high levels arrest close to three dozen pedophile politicians expected next week. That's the story, we'll see what happens. Nothing's gonna happen, this is bogus. I don't know if the information is bogus, but yeah, probably nothing's gonna happen. But I don't think... I think that that may be a... You're the one that talked me out of the whole Pizzagate thing. No, Pizzagate has nothing to do with... Well, these guys are all talking Pizzagate. Screw that. This is the real... Like Haiti. This is real stuff with real victims. You see? This is what I love about Pizzagate. It's all happening! When you have victims, then it actually happened.

2:51:23 So we'll see if this is bullshit or not. But I, but no doubt, John, there's a lot of that going on in Washington, D.C. Oh, I'm not saying it's not going on. I'm just saying that these guys is all very sketchy YouTubers. It has nothing to do with, it has nothing to do with Pizzagate. As far as I know, it doesn't matter. Anyway, I just wanted to, just wanted to throw that. And the last one, I might as well go completely full crazy on you. The mayor of Ankara in Turkey, warned that outside forces could be using sophisticated technology to trigger and this is from uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, AFP, Agence France-Presse. Outside forces could be using sophisticated technology to try to trigger a man-made earthquake in a deliberate bid to harm Turkey's fragile economy. Yeah! Yeah! Nice.

Tim Scott, Mean Tweets, Senate Staff Diversity

Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina read "mean tweets" he received for supporting Jeff Sessions for Attorney General, including racial slurs and accusations of being an "Uncle Tom." Scott pointed out the irony of these attacks, noting that he and another Republican senator are the only ones in the U.S. Senate with black Chiefs of Staff. He argued that liberal critics often equate their political views with the interests of all black Americans.

tim scott· jeff sessions· south carolina· uncle tom· senate

2:52:21 And I will just remind everyone that it was Secretary of Defense Cohen who stated before Congress that there are many forces who have this type of technology and that when he said made that statement, we should be considering it too. So I'm not just sucking this out of the air. No, you're just sucking. Wow, man. If there's an earthquake tomorrow in Turkey, you'll eat them words. I can do one more unreported story. Yes. I could just play the little Rohrbacher ISO. No. Well, you should hear it. Okay. Well, I'll do the right Rohrbacher ISO. Ready? The marijuana thing is such a big thing. I think medical should be happen. Yes. Right. Good. End of show. Ransomware cameras in DC is a story, but I can push that off. We talked about that. Yeah, a little bit. Yeah.

2:53:26 I'm so sick and tired of this. I don't I'm really not interested. I like it. Okay. Well, let's play that. No, no, no, I do. It's not important. I just said the whole story. Oh, all right. Uh, violence in movies is a good clip. Yeah. Tim, I'd like this guy Tim Scott, he's starting to get some... Yes, I got a clip from him too. Let's play yours. I got the long version of the clip, which I think is pretty good because there's new information. Yes, yes, yeah, yeah. The new shit has come to light. Do you want to set it up with that or... Yeah, I just... Tim Scott's a black... Well, hold on, John. Hold on. Let me just stop you right there for one second. I've got information, man. New shit has come to light. All right, go.

2:54:06 He's the partner of the South Carolina senator along with Trey Gowdy. And he's the black guy and he's very erudite, he's sensible, but he gets nothing but grief because he's a black Republican who happens to be a conservative. Of course you can't have that. Uncle Tom! So he's supporting Jeff Sessions and here's what he has to say. I somehow am not helpful to the cause of liberal America and therefore I am not helpful to black america. Because they see those as one and the same. I brought some of the pages of chats that I have from folks, actually I'll have a chat, the comments I get from twitter about my support of Jeff Sessions. Tracy V. Johnson, Mr. Tracy J. sends in Senator Uncle Tim Scott.

2:55:03 Wow. Everyone in South Carolina who happens to be... Wow, wait a minute. Someone called him Uncle Tom, basically? Oh, he got a number of Uncle Toms and also he says he didn't read any of the ones that use the N word, which is numerous. Geez. Everyone in South Carolina who happens to be a left winger knows that Tim Scott is an Uncle Tom. Oh, man. S is documented. S is not for Scott. It is for fertilizer. S got at... S got Says a white man in a black body Tim Scott Backs Jeff session for Attorney General. Now wait who's saying this? These are his tweets mean tweets Oh Mean tweets of my chief of staff the only which I got to teach this guy how to block just block He should have said that blocks at this point. He brings something up that I had no clue and I think it's Reprehensible that what he's about to say is absolutely true. I

2:55:59 backs Jeff Session for Attorney General. Of my Chief of Staff, the only, until three weeks ago, the only African American Chief of Staff in the United States Senate out of a hundred is the Chief of Staff for a Republican. The second... That was your, that was the surprising thing, huh? Yeah, it really surprised me. And then he's got a, there's a second one he mentions. African American Chief of Staff in the United Senate, United States Senate, is the Chief of Staff of a Republican. And yet, they say of my Chief of Staff, she's high yellow, an implication that she's just not black enough. My goodness. So he points out that he's got one and then you did somehow you stepped over the other one, which is a second one. One of the other people has a black Chief of Staff and they're also a Republican. There's no Democrats with a black

Tom Brady, Stolen Super Bowl Jersey, Outro

Tom Brady's game-worn jersey from Super Bowl LI was stolen from the locker room following the Patriots' victory. The jersey is estimated to be worth approximately $500,000 on the auction market, comparable to high-value memorabilia from Babe Ruth and Yogi Berra. The show concludes with a final "bing-bong" montage and a reminder for listeners to return for the Sunday broadcast.

2:57:01 Chief of Staff, which you'd think there might be one? I didn't know that. I found that to be very interesting. Let's go out on something fun, John. That was kind of a bummer. These guys are racists. Yeah, racists. Racists. Could you just give me one that's fun? Okay, here's one. This is educational and fun. Tom Brady, your buddy at the Super Bowl who won the game against all odds. He had his jersey stolen. And the numbers that they did, what these things are valued at, makes this a very interesting clip. Centered around one sweaty shirt. As the Super Bowl champion Patriots made their way through the slushy streets of Boston, so did the news about Tom Brady's stolen jersey. Did you hear about Brady's stolen jersey? Somebody stole his jersey. They should give it back.

2:58:01 The moment Brady realized his number 12 was missing Sunday was caught on this locker room video. He put out a be on the lookout soon after. So if it shows up on eBay somewhere someone let me know try to track that down. It's estimated the game-worn jersey could be worth at least a half million dollars on the auction block. Compare that with Babe Ruth's 1932 World Series jersey, which sold for more than a million, and a 1956 Yogi Berra jersey, which sold for half of that.

2:58:39 While the mystery is yet to be resolved, fans here put the theft in perspective. I don't even know who took it or what, but it's a jersey, we got the Lombardi trophy, we got the fifth ring, it's all good. My goodness half a million dollars for the I watch antiques Roadshow Yeah, and they have like oh, this is an original Rembrandt But it's only one of his drawings and it's probably worth about you know $150,000 people and they have a baseball. Oh that baby's worth three million dollars You know relative junk that's crazy Love it

I mean they can't deal with the rapings, they can't deal with terrorism, no masculine power in our society to fight back and that's because our culture has become feminized to be women and think like women and be soft-minded. That is what Europe is about! Men in Minis! Taking a stand! Men in Minis! For Will it solve the problem? In Minis! Taking a stand! Men in Minis! You need to have both the masculine part and the feminine part.

3:01:41 And now the masculine part is lost and we see the consequences. So the vacuum that feminism has created means that women are becoming victims. Men need to take responsibility to defend the women, the children and the culture. Because now, I mean, this postmodern project is dead. Men in minis, making a stand in skirts. Men in top-knot.
