About this episode

The United States Navy launched 59 Tomahawk missiles at a Syrian airbase following a chemical attack, but conflicting reports from the Russian Ministry of Defense and CBS News suggest the strike may have been more theatrical than tactical. While Secretary of State Rex Tillerson hailed the operation as a success, skeptics point to operational runways and the use of aging 1980s-era munitions as evidence of a scripted geopolitical maneuver. The timing of the strike during President Xi Jinping’s visit to Mar-a-Lago further fuels theories that the intervention served as a strategic signal to China and North Korea rather than a purely humanitarian response.

Representative Thomas Massie questioned the intelligence behind the sarin gas narrative on CNN, while Senator Lindsey Graham called for a massive troop buildup in Kuwait to facilitate the removal of Bashar al-Assad. Internal White House friction intensified as Steve Bannon was removed from the National Security Council, signaling a shift toward the globalist influence of Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump. Former CIA Director Michael Hayden admitted that the U.S. drone program now defaults to killing targets because detention has become politically and legally unviable. Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton used the Women in the World Summit to criticize Vladimir Putin and hint at a potential run for Mayor of New York.

Media personalities provided the week's most bizarre moments, from Carrie Bickmore’s emotional breakdown on Australian television to Bill O’Reilly’s repeated verbal gaffes regarding the Neil Gorsuch confirmation. Rapper Tip Harris sparked controversy on The View by insulting Omarosa’s appearance, and Senator John McCain struggled through a physical comedy routine with a malfunctioning lapel microphone. The episode concludes with an analysis of the decentralized social media platform Mastodon and a prank sign in Malibu mocking the city's sanctuary status.

Wag the Dog, Robert De Niro Propaganda Analysis

The 1997 film Wag the Dog is analyzed in the context of modern political propaganda and media manipulation. Robert De Niro, who produced and starred in the film as a government fixer, is criticized for his real-world political statements against Donald Trump. The discussion highlights the irony of an actor who portrayed a propaganda specialist seemingly participating in scripted media narratives.

00:00 Adam Curry, John C. DeVora And Sunday April 9th 2017 this is your award winning GiveMonation Media Assassination Episode Niner One-Niner This is no agenda Watching closely for the wagging of the dog so you don't have to. And broadcasting live from the darkest corners on the internet here in the capital of the drone star state, downtown Austin, Teos. Here in The Morning everybody I'm Adam Curry and from northern Silicon Valley where I think we need a good bombing I'm John C. Dvorak It's Craig Vaughan Buzzkill In the morning! It's interesting that you say that. I had written down my notes for Thursdays show or the last show Actually I've had it written down for couple shows. It's about time we get two things

00:44 Terrorist attack and some new hypey tech gadget or tech thingie that everyone is it and I was right about both What's the hypey tech thing? Yeah, we'll get to it in Tech News. Maybe if we get to it but Last night no Friday night I was able to introduce Tina The Keeper to a No Agenda favorite which we've talked about I'm sure Many people still have not seen it. You need to see this movie and I was happy, I saw it again because I had no idea how many people were in this that are now super superstars." Okay? And that is Wag the Dog! Oh yeah great movie. And...

01:24 So it's Robert De Niro, he is a Gov Fed and because the president is up for re-election he has some sex scandal with 13 year old. Some crazy stuff like that. Yeah, he's the spook! And then he goes to see Dustin Hoffman, The Crazy Producer which by the way pretty much exactly how crazy producers are sometimes in those big houses running around and not giving a crap. I think so. Tina at first you said this is like how you and John always talk on the show? Exactly. Exactly, exactly and as we're watching this he says wait a minute because this is also this movie was produced by Robert De Niro by Tribeca Films And what's the date on this movie just so we can get that straight? 1997 20 years old This movie is 20 years old an already everything and they were still using blue screen

02:14 for Chroma Key effects, before green screen became the norm. So they give you any idea but what Tina got upset was that wait a minute so De Niro produced this movie he stars in this movie he clearly understands the idea of propaganda being done through Hollywood otherwise you don't make this movie exactly but yet a year ago or less than a year ago This was the video that de niro released I mean he's so blatantly stupid He's a punk. He's a dog, he's a pig, he's a con, a b****

02:50 artist, a mutt who doesn't know what he's talking about. Doesn't do his homework, doesn't care thinks he is gaming society, doesn't pay taxes He is an idiot Colin Powell said it best. He is national disaster. He is embarrassment to this country It makes me so angry that this country has gotten to this point That this fool, this bozo has wound up where he has He talks how he wants to punch people in the face Well, I'd like to punch him in the face. This is somebody that we want for president? I don't think so What i care about is the direction of this country and what im very very worried about Is that it might go in the wrong direction

03:31 with someone like Donald Trump. Now when I listen to this again, the two things i notice one is it is exactly the same cadence and timbre of voice that he used when he was the government spook in the movie now maybe does that all the time because i have to look at all these movies but this is very very similar so either a he's a moron and forgot all about wag the dog or And this was my kind of my favorite part of Wag the Dog, not so much the video trickery but when they were calling up during the press. The White House spokeshole is doing a daily press briefing and they call him up and say okay have them say this and the guy touches his earpiece briefly you know like the sweaty Shawn version

04:14 And he says whatever they have to say, and then De Niro launches this. He explains it to the PR department. The way you gotta do it is you gotta say look I don't- This has nothing to do with the B3 bomber project! Nothing at all! Of course there's no B3 bomber projects. It was launching these false memes... Launching the memes. Maybe that's what he intended to do here? That he was actually in that role trying to do a little bit of Wag the Dog I have no idea what he was up to when he did that. I think it's still up for interpretation, but I like your thought that he is in the same cadence because when he is on talk shows or any place else, he doesn't talk with that... That is definitely a scripted message that he is acting for some reason why was he doing it? And it was extreme! It wasn't like Rosie O'Donnell or even Joy Behar and these people just going off on Trump

Media Use of Missile Launch B-Roll Footage

News organizations are criticized for the repetitive use of cruise missile launch footage to dramatize military actions. Fox News and other outlets are noted for incorporating specific audio "swoosh" effects and spiraling smoke visuals into their broadcasts. This aesthetic approach to war reporting is characterized as a tool for audience engagement rather than informative journalism.

cruise missiles· b-roll· fox news· media propaganda· tomahawk· syria

05:11 It was a long-winded, very scripted message. It seems to me it had something good... there's something about it that was very unusual. Well let us do um.. Let's see.... Let's do their first summary! This this get people up to speed I want to do a side by side of Rosie O'Donnell and De Niro but maybe that's too much for this early in the show Yeah might be So on the show day of course, Thursday. Of course! Right after the show they decided to send 60 missiles one landed in the drink right off the boat so they kept saying 59 I've made an executive decision on this show John it seems to work so well for all of the news media

06:00 I think since we don't have pictures, but I think we should just during the show just from time to time you know Footage of cruise missiles launching everyone seems to be doing that these days All the same B-roll. Yeah, I know We have the same Sounds good. They sound pretty nice by the way where you're on that topic I do have the Since you're collecting these things yeah, I have the ISO the iso of the Fox I've noticed this because that was because you were so excited about that crazy RT Interlude noise I have a fox is the fox or I haven't here for weeks Yeah, I got it if I got it here This is interesting because I didn't realize until I'm breezy listening they

06:44 They add a little extra element to their swoosh. Yeah, they're gone yes It's a bell it's a down it's an up and then a gone Nice okay here's our t7 on it with the with your missile launch I'm not doing anything that's in your clip I'm not touching it the missile launches into clip listen again That's not my interest this is my missiles It's the same missile launch by the way. Listen to this! So they're incorporating them, I'm telling you this was a swoosh This was the beginning of the show with the fox thing and the thing flying around And then they come into the show They weren't showing him missile launch but now that you play these back-to-back Totally a missile launch Yeah it's got a missile launch in it We have our own hold on so let me try this one for our own little sweeper effect Ha ha

07:44 Nice. The missile launch is very effective, I like it in the upper quarter of the screen This is what people are typically doing now, the control rooms They're putting it right hand upper corner Just you see this spiraling smoke every single time Just everywhere. It just doesn't stop. So they sent these missiles over to blow up an air base and of course, they didn't blow up anything... And a couple old jets in the cafeteria In fact, the best rundown on what happened was- Well first before we go into that I didn't hear about the cafeteria Yeah! Now i'm angry They blew up the calf? Yeah! They blew up the calf?! Oh no

CHAPTER 03 / 47 Discussion

Rex Tillerson, Jonathan Winters Character Comparison

Secretary of State Rex Tillerson's public persona and vocal delivery are compared to the comedic characters of Jonathan Winters. While Tillerson praised the Syrian airbase strike as an overwhelming success, his demeanor is likened to an "a-hole boss" archetype from mid-century stand-up comedy. The comparison suggests a lack of gravitas in the official diplomatic reporting of military events.

rex tillerson· jonathan winters· syrian attack· department of state· military success

08:22 Let's first of all, let's listen to Tillerson because he was all jacked up about this. And this is Tillerson gung-ho giving us the rundown. For everyone to recognize a couple things on the Syrian attack first It was an overwhelming success. I think the performance of our military and the expertise And the power what the US military is able to execute on a fairly short planning window was extraordinary And I think all Americans, indeed I think all of our allies in the free world should take great comfort in what occurred with that strike last night

09:01 And Americans should be very proud of their men and women in uniform. I was the Navy that sent these things over, I don't know what he's talking about He is getting on my nerves this guy Tillerson? The problem i'm having with him so far as my like psychic relationship Is he reminding me more and more and more of a Jonathan Winters character Jonathan Winters used to, when he did his... The thousand-year old man. Was that Jonathan Winters? No no no, it was Mel Brooks. Jonathan Winters did the first family with the Kennedys didn't he? That's not him. Who is that? Oh God!

09:43 Jonathan Winters, who was one of the first stand-up comedians that did record albums. He used to come on the Carson Show and some of his other shows and he'd be... His standup consists mostly ad libs And it seems I mean he could have rehearsed this stuff to death But he always played this almost identical person to Tillerson as just a boss An A-hole boss And he had to say it with the exact same accent. Yeah, but Tillerson isn't a whole boss that's where he comes from He's an a-hole boss so I can't watch Tillerson without thinking of Jonathan Winters up there doing some shtick Well and not a lot of people who have that specific problem anymore well anyone older than... Well you're probably right Yep yep End of the end of an era So Tillerson was called out because

Syrian Airbase Strike, Runway Damage Discrepancies

The effectiveness of the U.S. missile strike on a Syrian airbase is questioned following reports that runways remained operational within 24 hours. Rex Tillerson claimed runways were not targeted due to their thickness, yet skeptics point to the lack of high-quality "smart bomb" footage compared to previous conflicts. Observations of the White Helmets at the scene without protective gear lead to further questions regarding the alleged sarin gas attack.

syria· tomahawk missiles· shayrat airbase· rex tillerson· sarin gas· white helmets

10:36 Within 24 hours, we know from the news, he... The planes were taking off and landing again. And so they didn't do crap. They didn't hit the runway They didn't hit the runways. So I was baffled by this, so somebody at the secret no camera press conference which i think is going to be standard...I don't know why because I think of it as a switch. I know why! Because I've bitched long enough about the damn clicking and they said alright no more cameras thank you No I just thought of it Saturday Night Live Oh ffff....so right. You nailed it.

11:19 So what's-her-name is out of a job. So we're not going to see sweaty Sean, it's gonna be this." So some reporter asked him about the runway, what happened? You guys sent 60 missiles over and it turns out if you listen to all the reports only 24 of them made it. Oh I didn't hear that part... These things cost $1 million bucks a pop and couple of them didn't make it?! One fell off the boat That's where they were 59 60 but one fell off the boat no it apparently as it took off. It never ignited and just fell into the drink

12:03 America baby! So I have, believe me. I got some really funny stuff here but here's Tillerson answered that somebody asked him the question listen to this bogus answer about the runway yeah The runways were not a target due to the nature of the construction of those runways. Our military estimate was that we could not do serious damage to the runways. They are very thick and constructed in a way that the ordinance ever used while would have damaged them, it would've been easily repaired in a matter of hours so the targets targeting was selected very deliberately to render the airbase essentially

13:00 inoperable as an operating base and that means taking out all the infrastructure, the fueling capability All the support infrastructure hangars. And indeed there were a number of Syrian aircraft that were destroyed on the ground Those are with the targets they were selected for that very specific reason So the fact that planes may be landing in and out of there They're not refueling and I'm not able to certainly initiate any activity from Bullshit! Wow. I thought you'd get a kick out of that if you hadn't heard it, You know when they closed... What was the airport in Chicago? The one that was right off Midway. They closed that. It's not really closed its open again Right but when they closed it, the way they did it, and there was all a political thing but there were people who had aircraft at that airfield who just hadn't left yet. They closed it, they took two diggers and they dug huge grooves across the tarmac

13:58 And that was it. That was not going to be repaired any time soon, it doesn't go tha- a couple hours Asphalt? Really? Couple hours? No! Well maybe with cement because like uh... No I saw no I've seen the pictures Six feet of cement The pictures that I've seen look to be pure tarmac asphalt if thats it but the thing is and this is kind of why I started with the whole wag the dog thing We have seen nothing. We have seen only speculation, we've seen very odd things going on people being called the white helmets who aren't wearing white helmets who are saving people without any type of protective gear from sarin gas which means you would be in trouble in about 15-20 minutes if not less no hazmat suits

14:44 We didn't, we had these great videos going back to the smart bomb going right into the smokestack. Yet we have nothing from this fabulous offensive? Why not? Mirka! Well no all we got was some Syrian footage which shows it coming off. And that is what we got. We get a lot of noise there and again let's get back to the runway thing are you crazy A thousand pound bomb, a couple of thousand pounds bombs. I don't care how thick these runways are." Well what I understand from the military sources is many of these hellfires had no warhead at all. These were tomahawks? Tomahawks, sorry. Had no warhead and many of them had very small loads so what we know for sure this was not meant to do anything but message

CHAPTER 05 / 47 Discussion

CBS News Official Report on Syrian Missile Strike

CBS News provided the official government-aligned account of the Navy task force operation involving the destroyers Porter and Ross. The report states that 59 Tomahawk missiles hit targets associated with chemical weapons capabilities while deliberately avoiding Russian assets. The narrative emphasizes the speed of the naval response and the humanitarian justification involving "nerve gas" victims.

cbs news· david martin· navy· porter· ross· cyprus· chemical weapons

15:37 Well, that's interesting theory. Oh I have a whole theory on it of course! I'm looking forward to it but let's listen to the... well first don't you think we should get the official report from the CIA outlet? The CIA broadcasting system yes And we have the official report which will, which we have to assume is all government approved. Yes. And this will be... Government written you mean? Yes. Government written. Government drafted yes and here are the three, it's a three-parter and this is CBS official rundown one David Martin tells us about the target U.S. officials estimate 20 Russian-made aircraft belonging to the Syrian Air Force were reduced to scrap metal. Satellite photos show 59 cruise missiles, each with a 1,000 pound warhead hit ammo dumps storage sites and radars spread out around the 10,000 foot runway. Commodore Tate Westbrook commanded the small Navy task force that launched the missiles. These were targets specifically associated with

16:40 in government's capabilities to deliver chemical weapons and had been specifically attributed to the recent attack against the civilians. Westbrook told CBS News he first was alerted for the mission on Tuesday, the same day a Syrian jet was tracked taking off from the airfield and dropping a bomb loaded with nerve gas on a roadway where it left a small crater and a cloud of death. You know, sadly we have none of that video... Everything is armed with video these days in military. Everything! But we're not being shown any of that cool. It would be cool Show me the plane you track in the plane show me at the time The Destroyers Porter and Ross were some 1500 miles away I turned both ships around and Both ships maintain maximum speed to get in position all the way across

17:33 way across the Mediterranean. By the time President Trump approved the strike at 430 Thursday afternoon, the Porter and Ross were southwest of Cyprus well within the 1,000 mile range of their cruise missiles. I had to stop it here because a couple things stood out like a sore thumb one these guys by the way i'd love to see these destroyers going at full speed They go, they can go at a pretty fast clip actually. Yes I bet you that's frightening to see those things go by! I think they have turbine engines? Yeah something with them... Fast! I think they do like 40 knots. What was it with the two names Roger and whatever? It should of course be the destroyers Curry and Dvorak are on their way to the Mediterranean

18:19 So they turned the boats around, ships around on Tuesday. This thing was underway immediately. Trump signed off on it Thursday but they were already in position and everything by then so this part of it to me was a little sketchy. All of it was set up? What are you talking about? Yeah well I'm just pointing it out. It's like two days before they had this thing ready to go and then Trump would put his ex on something and then boom. And all he had to do was say babies, little babies, babies, babies, babies, children, babies. All right onward well within the 1000 mile range of their cruise missiles the command center for the operation alerted the Russians a strike was coming but was not aimed at them

19:05 The Russians had helicopters and crews at the airfield, and the missiles deliberately avoided those locations. At 736 Thursday evening, the Porter & Ross began launching 60 missiles One failed and went in the water. The other 59 flew different routes in order to reach the target at the same time This is what it looked like from a distance as shown on Syrian TV. Neither Syrian nor Russian air defenses tried to shoot the missiles down." Now, another thing question comes to mind... I'm sorry, just because the reporting was so beautiful everywhere and has actually created a rift

19:46 In separate universes. It's oh, I know me but going on about her face bag accounts Oh well, we'll get to it a minute as I want you to figure out all this stuff discussed Yeah, we got a lot of stuff to go yeah for sure so uh There was something at the oh yeah What was the point at least that's what he said is the official account? What was the point of sending these things often to all kinds of different directions So they all arrived at exactly the same time Well, it's like water ballet now I just say, what difference does it make? At this point. I don't know! To make it look cool... It had to be it. Come on boy, what is the footage they released?! Everyone thought that was cool! Oh yeah, I'm telling you Brian Williams going on and on about how beautiful it was. Did you get a clip of that? I didn't clip it. It's incorporated in a Maupan clip from RT. Okay but do you want to do this third official one now? Yeah let me do the third and then wrap it.

20:48 Russian intent to interfere with this mission. US intelligence believes the Syrian regime resorted to chemical weapons in a desperate attempt To stop opposition fighters from capturing key terrain it is still investigating whether Russia, the regime's protector had anything to do with that chemical attack Scott? Yeah so there are so many different angles to this and I have to say, I'm disturbed because I used to be the crackpot. The conspiracy theorist this is what i do and now all of a sudden everyone's doing it oh yeah like oh he just did that to distract attention he did it well can i play a couple clips here? Well then I just want to play the one follow-up clip to this clip this series because this...I just debalanced and then it's all yours but I want to play the Russians cause we had to get the right..what did the Russian say about this

CHAPTER 06 / 47 Discussion

Russian Ministry of Defense, Syrian Damage Assessment

The Russian Ministry of Defense reported that the U.S. missile strike was lackluster, with many Tomahawks failing to reach their targets or crashing into mountains. According to Russian and Syrian sources, the damage was limited to archaic MiG-23 jets and a local cafeteria, leaving the main runway and modern aircraft untouched. Speculation suggests the U.S. used the event to deplete an aging inventory of 1980s-era missiles.

russia· ministry of defense· mig-23· tomahawk· yugoslavia· cafeteria

21:45 Did they, would they ever say? I mean, I find it hard to believe that the Russians moved their helicopters some little spot and it was avoided. Well you don't buy what they were buying the whole thing To be honest about of course not but we do this just one clip get it out of the way which is what the Russians say about the damage to the airbase You know judging by the damage that has been done to them and judging by what the Russian Ministry of Defense has said, the Syrians have said not all those cruise missiles made it to their target. Apparently one version is that many may have flown into mountains

22:27 Tomahawk cruise missile has had historically a problem in Yugoslavia, A huge problem where the missiles fly very low to avoid detection to avoid being shot down and they basically hug the ground. And when they come up against the cliff face They often get confused don't know what to do What? We're gonna have self-driving cars and we can't have a missile say oh cliff face pull up pull up I guess apparently can't pull up fast enough. They don't have a lot of control mechanisms on those things except the rocket well for that kind of money, i think we should have a million dollars you'd think they would get confused don't know what to do and thinking here is that because their flight path took them over mountains in Lebanon many may have flown

23:14 into cliff sides. That's one version, another version is that their tracking may have been confused and some of them may have been shot down but you know if the Russians were complicit in this if they touched anything they haven't said so and I don't think we'll find out anytime soon but the missiles themselves the ones that actually impacted the base the ones that actually arrived at destination The effects were lackluster. They, uh... sixty cruise missiles or fifty-nine cruise missiles destroyed six MiG 23 jets these are archaic almost fifty years old and you can actually buy them in the United States privately for about a hundred thousand dollars each apparently the ones that were destroyed were mostly in for maintenance they also destroyed a radar station, a warehouse, a training block

24:07 and the local cafeteria as well. That apparently took a hit, however... Bastards! The jets that were there, the functional operational jets, the more modern ones, apparently they were although they were out in the open, they were untouched. The runway itself, the most critical part of any airbase largely untouched and you don't have to be a military expert here all the footage coming out on the base it's evident that it hadn't sustained major damage All right, so I'm still very angry about the cafeteria because it was sloppy Joe day And they had to go and bomb it bastards from the war room These missiles that were used are from the 80s

24:48 And a possible reason for them being shot off is to get rid of them so we can load up some new stuff. There apparently are 3,100 of these things, these old tomahawks and this has only gotten rid of 60 of them. So we got a lot left. Oh well good! I'd say North Korea be on the lookout All right, now I noticed a number of things. And I don't want to get to my conclusion just yet but i want to identify a meme that as far as I know started on RT which is why it was interesting where I heard next but this I think we'll see more cropping up more and more by the US bombing the Syrian government in Syria and Syrian government forces at this point they are by default helping ISIS and Al Qaeda yesterday after Trump administration bombed

25:35 bombed that airbase, what you had afterwards was almost immediately ISIS capitalized on that attack and launched offensive operations against the Syrian army around Homs. So that's one of the most stunning aspects of this is that the US is essentially by doing this acting as an air cover for ISIS. All right. I thought that was an interesting statement from this girl. I don't know her. I don't remember who she is. What was she on? RT. RT. Oh, okay she's RT. But she could have easily been CIA for all I know. Could easily sound like she is CNN too. I mean if she was just a stock. Exactly so now we go to CNN the same meme fine-tuned by our anti constitutional douchebag Zareed Fakharia or Fareed Zakaria whichever one you prefer There is a civil war in Iraq between Assad essentially and ISIS and a bunch of other jihadis

CHAPTER 07 / 47 Discussion

ISIS Air Force Meme, Fareed Zakaria Analysis

A media meme suggesting the United States is acting as the "ISIS Air Force" has emerged on both RT and CNN. Fareed Zakaria and other analysts suggest that by weakening the Assad regime, the U.S. military is inadvertently providing air cover for jihadist groups. This narrative highlights the complex and contradictory nature of intervening in the Syrian civil war.

24:48 And a possible reason for them being shot off is to get rid of them so we can load up some new stuff. There apparently are 3,100 of these things, these old tomahawks and this has only gotten rid of 60 of them. So we got a lot left. Oh well good!

Exactly so now we go to CNN the same meme fine-tuned by our anti constitutional douchebag Zareed Fakharia or Fareed Zakaria whichever one you prefer There is a civil war in Iraq between Assad essentially and ISIS and a bunch of other jihadis

26:26 Are we now saying we're against Assad? Do we want to strengthen ISIS? You know, do we want the Assad regime to fall? If so are we willing to commit ourselves to that goal. If not, we've just thrown bombs in the middle of one of those complex civil wars in the country and now we're going to step back and say Well, that's it. We're done." And the reason it is hard to answer many of the questions you are asking Su... Is because this such a young presidency and we really don't know what the foreign policy is especially when it comes to Syria. There is danger Ben Wiedemann mentioned it on Anderson there is danger that we have effectively acted as ISIS' air force but if anything weakens Assad in strategic sense I think this isn't mean. I think were gonna hear this a lot. We are now ISIS' Air Force

Emotional Response of Women, Carrie Bickmore Breakdown

Australian television host Carrie Bickmore experienced an emotional breakdown on air while discussing images of the Syrian conflict. This segment explores the perceived difference in emotional responses between men and women regarding war coverage. The host's unprofessional display is cited as an example of how media uses distress to influence public opinion.

27:14 I want to hear it a couple more times first. Yeah, now i think it's on the way now as you already mentioned...I like it by the way and I think there is some truth to it and if you want take the conspiracy all the way to maybe your going in this direction Oh! I would think so To the extreme which we want a caliphate No that not what im talking about Ok well thats what I think you can do that You could make that argument I first wanna talk about women I noticed immediately that this act had a much more severe, or created a much more severe response in women than men. Did you notice any of it? Well you don't get out much but did you notice anything in your own personal... Get out?!

28:01 Did you notice anything? When I go to the Monterey Foods or Berkeley Bowl, did I notice a bunch of women hand-wringing and talking? No. I noticed some coverage on television that had a lot of women analysts. I know Hairidge was out there Plugging for the thing. I know that the my face bag is gone nuts with women What did she say? What does she say about women on the face bag? She says it's like this short-circuited Yeah, exactly because they didn't know which way to go either was oh great Because Assad is evil but wait he's Isis air force what so now we're terrorists wait But but Russia await, but

28:43 But you're right, it was a complete short circuit. Two morning shows to watch the first one from Australia Carrie Bickmore is one of the hosts on this morning show here's how she responded Sorry, I know it's...I was gonna start this conversation but I just can't see those images. I find them incredibly distressing and I know i'm not alone. I saw our audience there just you know covering their faces but the thing is that our tears, us feeling sad ain't going to do anything and I know that. I know sitting here in safe Australia us feeling as happy for these people doesn't change anything What? You know what can Trump do will he change his mind will he act will he or is this just something we're gonna look back on

29:23 Uh... I don't feel like I've got anything else in this game. She's breaking down! Duh? Where is this again, this was an Australian morning show? Yes Who was it? Carrie Bickmore Where'd you get this clip? From Australia Wow This is the Clip of The Day You might as well give that because I can't believe this is so unprofessional Holy crap, this is dynamite! I didn't expect that! Well I'm just saying because It's almost like this is part of the whole thing. This is Michael Devoren who sent me that from Australia, he said... Would love to know what you think of this possible show clip a taste of Australian media? Uh, Michael I share this award with you and I want to thank God our creator for giving us Clip Of The Day. I did not expect it at all! I really didn't uh-I didn't have a speech prepared

CHAPTER 09 / 47 Discussion

The View, War Powers Act Debate

The hosts of The View are criticized for their lack of legal understanding regarding the War Powers Resolution of 1973 and the AUMF. The panel's discussion on whether President Trump had the authority to bomb Syria without Congress is compared to President Obama's previous actions in Libya. One panelist's confusion between North Korea and South Korea is highlighted as a sign of media incompetence.

the view· whoopi goldberg· joy behar· war powers resolution· barack obama· north korea

30:19 Yeah. Now let's go to... you heard it. That was the end of the clip? More or less, yeah. Now I want to go to an American TV show with women. Oh what could that be? Hmm. Oh yes! The View. When President Obama declared a red line against Syria and said if these chemical weapons- You just have to listen to the whole thing because they're talking over each other remember there's There is a horrible show that they have this out of control There's a Republican woman on the panel, there is of course Behar who is this creature and Goldberg. I don't even remember if she was in this clip but they're arguing and they just don't know what to do. When President Obama declared a red line against Syria and said that these chemical attacks continue

31:04 That's it. We're done we're getting involved and we did nothing and we know now that there have been several of these attacks to Congress permission to do but when you're the commander-in-chief You put that out there, and you say there's a red line This is our red line the buck stops with you and I'm going to be able to do it without Congress. That's not true It's not a declaration of war I love this because here are five women none of them actually have anything right about the war powers act, declaration of war, the authorization of use of military force. And they're reintroducing this stale meme that apparently only us two

31:44 Like to harp on which is that that gas attack that took place, that involved the red line crossing was bogus. If he had not gone to Congress President Obama they would have impeached him! That's not true Yeah like they did when I don't know when he bombed Libya yeah They would have impeached him if if he did that man No what happened as we didn't show any video so it didn't happen 48 hours according to the 48 hours this is great they just make it out of her ass yes Congress after making the decision and they could stay there for 60 days. It would be 90 days if you want to be technical but you're talking about two different things without congressional approval

32:30 Can I clear this up about the law? Because if you look at the War Powers Resolution of 1973, it made... Oh! Someone has read something. A headline at least. ...resolution of 1973 It made it very clear that a president cannot unilaterally act like this without Congress and there are good reasons for that in 2001 after 9-11 certainly the uh..it was broadened those powers were broadened but... You think Moron! Yes, of course it was broadened and that's when the AUMF was put in place. As long as it combats terrorism and our national interests, the president can do whatever he wants. And President Obama killed people every Tuesday

33:11 Stop only to the extent that their national interest and basically there would be a direct attack on the United States President Trump did not have the authority to do this without Congress I actually do think just was a bold move And I don't think the timing that he was meeting with the Chinese president Was also, he wants to show might in the face of Korea North Korea. And I South Korea Doesn't even know which Korea is the shitty one North Korea South Korea He wants to show might in the face of Korea and North Korea, and I South Korea She looks at the other girl South Korea North Korea Korea He wants to show my code what he can do it

34:04 Maybe she meant Crimea instead of Korea. Maybe it was a Pelosi thing, I don't know. What is his plan for North Crimea? We have to be careful! The war in coming up with something that might be worth the title Project runway. That's pretty funny. Project Syrian Runway. Yeah, no project runway Syria that's what it would be project runway Syria Okay let's look at a couple more heads exploding on CNN

CHAPTER 10 / 47 Discussion

Thomas Massie, Syrian Chemical Attack Skepticism

Representative Thomas Massie expressed skepticism on CNN regarding the narrative that Bashar al-Assad ordered a chemical attack. Massie argued that such an attack would not serve Assad's interests and suggested the gas might have been released from a bombed ammo dump. The interview was abruptly ended after Massie questioned the certainty of the intelligence provided by human rights observers.

thomas massie· cnn· bashar al-assad· sarin gas· ammo dump· human rights

34:49 Republican Representative Thomas Massey showed up. It's hard to know exactly what is happening in Syria right now, I'd like to know specifically how that release of chemical gas if it did occur and it looks like it did how that occurred because frankly I don't think Assad would have done that. It does not serve his interests, it would tend to draw us into the civil war even further. Who do you think is behind this? Her head is going... what and the control room is definitely going. What is he talking about? Don't let him on too long! They're very concerned about this guest. Who do you think is behind it? You know, you've got a war going on over there supposedly that air strike was on an ammo dump And so I don't know if it was released because there was gas stored in the ammo dump or not That's plausible. I'm not saying that's what I think happened but... Are you more inclined to believe

35:47 of what Bashar al-Assad is saying and what the Russians are saying right now than more inclined to agree with, believe even your colleagues here in the United States believe it's true that this is Assad? We're going to cut this guy pretty soon. Don't give him too much leeway okay? What human rights observers over there say is Assad I don't think it would have served Assad's purposes to do a chemical attack on his people so you know its hard for me to understand why he would do that if he did All right. Congressman Tom Massey, thanks for your time. Get off my air! You know somebody pointed out to me that sarin gas besides being so deadly that you really don't touch people with it causes... now one of our experts out there might be a military guy or something who contradict this but my understanding is it causes

36:40 Enormous amount of vomiting. Yeah, foaming, vomiting at the mouth. A lot of vomiting, throwing up. There was no evidence that... No evidence of that there's one video where they stack the children up nicely you know Syrian children stack well I have to say. They're stackable! Now in stackable format and yet one kid opens her eyes and the camera pans away Kid opens their eyes stacked on a pile of dead children we think This is very, this is very annoying. Yes this stuff is very annoying Now Bill Maher had his show and... I'm glad you saw it because I knew there'd be something in there Yeah just pick up a little piece Had an ex CIA guy on another spook who had never seen before Which leads me to believe that Bill Maher's just so in bed with the spooks It's crazy Every week he has got a different ex-CIA guy on

CHAPTER 11 / 47 Discussion

Bill Maher, Ana Navarro Trump Support Rift

On Real Time with Bill Maher, Republican commentator Ana Navarro expressed rare agreement with Donald Trump's military action in Syria despite her personal dislike for him. Representative Ted Lieu argued the strike was unconstitutional without congressional approval, while Navarro framed it as a necessary response to genocide. The segment highlights a rift among Trump's critics who are divided on the legality versus the morality of the intervention.

bill maher· ana navarro· ted lieu· donald trump· constitution· genocide

37:34 Then he had on Ted Lieu, the Democrat from California and Ana Navarro. And Ana Navarro if you recall she's the Hispanic American lady who hates Trump She was always on CNN talking about hates him, hates his grab-the-pussy thing We've had many clips of her You'll recognize her voice She actually agrees with Trump like hell had to freeze over in this clip. Okay, let's talk about what everybody is talking about Trump fired off some missiles everyone seems to be very jazzed about this on TV in the last 24 hours Let me add some facts to it first of all I'd like to mention that he's really sliding on the fact that on Monday of this week

38:18 The Trump administration told Assad, you know what? We don't really care what you do. Whether you stay or whether you go So maybe that emboldened him to do this on Wednesday Ted Well it's not that complicated Assad Thanks Ted What Assad did was horrific with the use of chemical weapons Yes But the constitution does not allow the president of United States To engage in unilateral acts at war without congressional approval Congress never authorized him And let's not forget, Obama begged them to do it. When they say Obama did nothing about the chemical weapons, Obama did something he went to Congress This is a great revisionist history I really like what he is doing here

39:00 Obama drew the red line, the red line was crossed. Then he went humina-humina-humina because he found out from the laboratory in Gitmo Nation GMT that the chemical weapons used—this is a 2013 Red Line attack—that they had the signature of Turkish military, Turkish chemical weapons and certainly not anything the Syrians had had or Assad had. So he stopped and then as a... Well he stopped but you have to don't leave out Dempsey Tell me, what was Dempsey again? This is the point where Dempsey put his foot down and says no you're not doing anything until we get all these results back and all the rest of it. Dempsey showed up in the conversation at this moment he's the one who apparently put the kibosh on bombin' Damascus Did we have a clip of that? We had some Let me see what this is I haven't seen any intelligence suggest that

40:00 AQ was responsible for those attacks. Although we do know that there have been extremist elements that are trying to make inroads in Syria That is to be distinct from the opposition I'm not tying those together, you know, I don't know if that was it may or not related Right, so... but then President Obama we I know I remember clearly we said oh this is bullcrap. So now he's gonna go Congress will you please uh please let me do it. That was a smart move! It was very genius move. I thought that was a savvy move and now they're giving him crap for doing it of course Let's continue. Obama did something he went to Congress and he said give me the authorization and they went like So Obama try to follow the Constitution right what Trump did yesterday was illegal You can't just fire cruise missiles into a country that has not attacked the US without congressional authorization

40:59 I hate to say it, but yes you can. We did that with Libya! You've done that in many countries we have not had a congressional declaration of war since World War II so right Korean War Vietnam War Yugoslavia yeah thank you all under the same exact same pretense and legalities which i agree i agree its bullcrap This is a bewildering situation in every which way. That Donald Trump changed... You recognize her? Oh god, yeah she's horrible. But listen! ...situation in every which way that Donald Trump changed his position should not be bewildering the man has had more positions than the Kama Sutra on just about everything. Oh ho ho! She met a funny

41:44 to wake up today and hear folks like a John McCain, like a Lindsey Graham, uh, like an Evan McMullin, like an Ana Navarro actually be in agreement with what he did. It's even more com- Notice she puts herself in that list She puts Ana Navarro Yeah she did! She dropped her own name on the list Along with some senators That's pretty cool She's talking about herself as a third person That is pretty brazen I love it John McCain Like a Lindsey Graham Uh, like an Evan McMullen Like an Ana Navarro Yeah, that's a psychotic thing isn't it? There has got to be something psychotic. That is totally psycho to do that Or maybe she is just reading the script It's like everyone is in agreement with him Abe Lincoln George Washington John Dvorak Actually being in agreement with what he did It was even more confusing for those who supported him because he said he wasn't going to do it Now look

42:28 When he was campaigning, I thought he was a racist misogynist lying pig. You go girl! He is a racist misogynistic lying pig. Pig! He's a pig! At what point does the name calling goes too far? I mean when you use technical terms like misogynist...I think you can say liar okay but I think there is more technical term but pig now your just going down to street level girl You know? What is the technical term for a pig? A swine. More technical, I'm looking for a technocratic word. Hog! He's a hog! This misogynist lying pig but he is also my commander in chief And he just violated the constitution? We can argue about that and we are deeply divided country over that That's right But for too long we've been looking the other way in the face of genocide See she's all-in and she hates Trump So we have a rift inside the rift This dynamite This is a great time to be alive

CHAPTER 12 / 47 Discussion

Caleb Maupin, Trump Policy U-Turn Analysis

RT correspondent Caleb Maupin analyzes Donald Trump's sudden shift from an "America First" non-interventionist policy to aggressive military action. Maupin notes that Trump's strike won over former rivals like Hillary Clinton and John McCain, leading to accusations that Trump has become a "deep state neocon puppet." The summary includes a critique of Brian Williams' poetic description of the missile launches.

caleb maupin· rt· hillary clinton· john mccain· deep state· leonard cohen

43:30 And I... We get to watch the tearing of the space-time continuum right before our very eyes. Not just that, we're documenting it John! We are scientific historians here at work It's all in the show notes All we have to do is hit the big button and publish, and we've got our white paper. Well before you go on can I give you the Maupin Trump rundown which shows example after example of what you just showed? Yeah i would love to hear that Remember when Donald Trump was running for president all those bold statements? For too long We've been moving from one reckless intervention to another. In Libya, Syria, Iraq, Iran this destructive cycle bad decisions we cannot be the policemen of the world America first!

44:19 Well, now Donald Trump has carried out the USA's first direct strike against the Syrian government. And in doing so he's won over the mainstream media, the so-called fake news he despised. Overnight retaliation from his Florida estate of passionate President Trump. We see these beautiful pictures at night I am tempted to quote the great Leonard Cohen...I'm guided by the beauty of our weapons What changed? Hold on. Is he? What is what, what is he thinking that I just have to say it by the beauty of our weapons and he's quoting

45:03 Who did he quote, Georgie Scott? No no no it was a poet that could color. I am tempted to quote... Let me listen to it again. You had it you nailed it. Overnight retaliation from his Florida estate of passionate President Trump We see these beautiful pictures at night. I am tempted to quote the great Leonard Cohen. I'm guided by the beauty of... The Great Leonard Cohen Here's the deal, you say I'm tempted to quote the great Leonard Cohen and then he quotes him. That's not being tempted that's actually doing it! That's what douchebags do you get up there in your tweed suit and with your pipe well I'm tempted to quote Leonard Cohen It's so beautiful though The bombs bursting in air wait that was George C Scott that's what I want to quote And the bombs bursting in air

45:54 That's Francis Scott Key. Yeah, same guy he has a pseudonym didn't he was also Dr Seuss I think. I'm tempted to quote the great Leonard Cohen i'm guided by the beauty of our weapons what changed last night? I think Donald Trump became president of the United States it's not just the mainstream media remember his old arch rival crooked Hillary well Hillary Clinton was on TV and she called for a strike against the air base just hours before it happened. Assad had an air force and that air force is the cause of most of the civilian deaths we should have, and still should

46:34 take out his airfields. John McCain and Lindsey Graham, some of his staunchest opponents within the Republican Party they're now singing his praises I think it's a good beginning it sends a tremendously important signal I'm glad the president did it. I want to applaud the president for taking action It was justified, it was necessary. It was the right move first of all with legal With many Trump's staunchest opponents now on his side where does that leave is loyal supporters? What do they think about his sudden conversion to aggressive military intervention Those who wanted us meddling in the Middle East voted for other candidates I guess Trump wasn't Putin's puppet after all he was just another deep state neocon puppet I'm officially off the Trump train

47:20 Missiles flying, Rubio's happy, McCain ecstatic. Hillary is on board a complete policy change in 48 hours Why did Donald Trump suddenly make peace with an establishment that he has always raged against? With the president capable of such an aggressive U-turn it may be impossible to predict what comes next Caleb Maupin RT Yeah I'm actually going to predict what comes next but first Because you requested it and I actually went on my own mission, and I really watched the president very closely when he announced the Syria bombing which to me was one of the most over-dramatized

CHAPTER 13 / 47 Discussion

Bombard's Body Language, Trump Syria Speech Analysis

An analysis of Donald Trump's body language during his Syria bombing announcement suggests signs of discomfort and deception. The "Bombard" review highlights Trump's rigid posture, specific eyebrow raises when mentioning the airfield, and weight shifts during talk of a "troubled world." The analysis claims these physical cues indicate Trump may not have been fully confident in the intelligence he was presenting.

bombard's body language· donald trump· syria speech· nerve agent· un security council

48:01 Really, it was quite sickening to see him do this. And again with the babies and all this crap... It wa-it was truly insulting to my intel- into my intelligence I don't know what you felt but like holy crap man can you lay the bullcrap on any thicker? Uh But i got a Bombard's Body Language review of this speech and I know you like it I do. And the bombardment... It's your beat too, i'm gonna let you do it. Thank you yeah and I don't want to do these too often but this was one that I happened to be looking at myself and his body was incredibly still! Then when I watched her analysis you see the nuances and she of course adds some color to that. I have to say she hates Trump. She hates Trump with a passion. I'd left most of that off at the end. I brought in a little bit because I did edit this down obviously but let's listen to her analysis of Trump's body language on Tuesday

48:52 Syrian dictator Bashar al-assad. He's trying very hard not to talk with his arms He holds on to this podium pretty much the entire time so his body is trying to sing with him God I love this is the woman with a clunk keyboard again, just so you know launched a horrible chemical weapons attack on innocent civilians using a deadly nerve agent Deadly nerve agent. That one got him to jump his arm, apparently that really bothers him...that nerve agent use. Assad choked out the lives of helpless men women and children. Children? It was a slow and brutal death for so many What was missing was slow and brutal puking their guts out shitting their guts out slowly dying in agonizing pain

49:49 He could have gone further, I think. Even beautiful babies were cruelly murdered in this very barbaric attack. No, I don't think it's barb- Barbaric would be like hitting you in the head with a sledgehammer or chopping your head off. Barbarians had no chemical weapons did they? No child of God should ever suffer such horror Tonight I ordered a targeted Military strike on the airfield in Syria from where the chemical attack We saw an eyebrow raise from where the chemical attack, the believe me look. On the airfield So you understand what she's saying now? Like believe me, believe me it came from that airfield Yeah it came from there In Syria from where With a shoulder strug so he's not even sure about where it came from Chemical attack was launched

50:51 It is in this vital national security interest of the United States to prevent and deter the spread and use of deadly chemical weapons. There can be no dispute that Syria used banned chemical weapons, violated its obligations under the Chemical Weapons Convention and ignored the urging of chemical weapons. There can be no dispute that Syria used banned chemical weapons, violated its obligations under the Chemical Weapons Convention, and ignored the urging of the UN Security Council."

51:43 The UN Security Council, by the way did not... it was vetoed. I believe by... It was vetoed by Russia but i believe is a vetoed by China as well. I'm not sure on China. Years of previous attempts at changing Assad's behavior have all failed and failed very dramatically As a result, the refugee crisis continues. Now when he said that failed dramatically he adjusted himself with a foot not just a turning of his body as he's reading these teleprompters He adjusted himself it was suggested he was uncomfortable with that statement meaning it was deceptive Mr.. Deepen and the region continues to destabilize threatening the United States and its allies

52:30 Tonight I call on all civilized nations to join us in seeking to end the slaughter and bloodshed in Syria, and also to end terrorism of all kinds and all types. We ask for God's wisdom as we face the challenge of our very troubled world. We pray for the lives of the wounded our very troubled world and he shifted his weight on that one too. I really am just really disgusted like wow! I wonder if this will be the proxy war that will no longer be called a proxy war with Russia

CHAPTER 14 / 47 Discussion

Banna al-Abed, Turkish TV Interview Scripting

Syrian social media personality Banna al-Abed appeared on Turkish television in an interview that appeared heavily scripted. When asked about her favorite food in Istanbul, the child repeatedly responded with "save the children of Syria" before eventually answering "fish." The segment is used to illustrate how children are utilized in international political propaganda.

banna al-abed· syria· istanbul· propaganda· twitter· turkey

53:15 Oh, won't somebody please think of the children? We got a lot of children stuff going on. Babies little babies. Here's the summary of the whole thing just for a little aside short clip this is O'Reilly Iso dead babies Aside yeah he did probably destroyed some stuff but he kept some stuff and now 20 babies are dead That's how it goes, man. Wrap it up. It kept some stuff and now 20 babies are dead Well there was one more baby we brought on to the scene this came to us from Turkish television The tweeter the Syrian tweet girl known as Banna

53:54 She went on TV again and we have a behind the scenes look as I love this little Syrian girl with her mom, whoever that is. Oh God! Yeah so it's in English and the TV host says okay i'm gonna ask you a couple things... she just getting there ready to go right? He's just getting prepped and warmed up and ready to go. Now Banna of course sometimes I speak fast then I have a South African accent my name is Imran I have a South African accent so sometimes you won't understand me and that's okay Your mom Fatima will help out. Okay, you can speak in Arabic or you can speak in English And of course we have no saber on the side there So if you really don't understand me You can ask her Saber and she can help okay? Now I had one question for you before we talk to everybody that she understands She's got it okay all right else and we've before everybody else's questions come in do you like the food in Istanbul yes What do you like

54:54 Save the children of Syria. Yeah Do you like the food? Yes, what kind of food do you like save the children of Syria okay? Thanks for understanding English Save the children of Syria yeah, I want to like Istanbul You're like Istanbul fish yes fish Do you like Istanbul? Fish. I'm just gonna answer that whenever someone asks me anything my answers gonna be fish Yeah, fish me too. I've thought a lot about this Well before you wait You're getting to your conclusion. I am I don't want you to do it yet cuz I got a couple more things I want so you can add to it okay first of all let's I thought this was very funny and

CHAPTER 15 / 47 Discussion

Tucker Carlson, Media Propaganda and "Tight Lock" Intelligence

Tucker Carlson criticizes the media for labeling skeptics of the Syrian strike as racists or conspiracy theorists. Meanwhile, Bill O'Reilly and his guests discuss "tight lock" intelligence, a term that appears to be a linguistic gaffe or a reference to high-confidence data. The discussion compares the current intelligence environment to the lead-up to the Iraq War and the dismissal of dissenters like Ron Paul.

tucker carson· bill o'reilly· politico· white nationalists· tight lock· ron paul

55:44 This is Tucker Carlson. Yes, I had to grab his beat. He had Lindsey Graham on which I can play later it's got nothing to do with what you're going to conclude but this fake news the fake news analysis part one this clip has to be played because Tucker is a kind of become a cynic Again, trying to get O'Reilly's job. But just play this and so we get a very nice way of seeing how he is... It's kind of like no agenda analysis. Well the reviews are in on last night attack on Sierra and Airfields The media loved it So did John McCain And as you heard Lindsey Graham too Most official Washington was thrilled Even many Democrats in Congress The ones who were denouncing the president As Nazi and Russian agent simultaneously Just 20 minutes ago Managed to say nice words about last nights mission Which was nice

56:31 So, who's not on board? Let's see. Well according to a piece by someone named Ben Shreckinger at Politico the skeptics are limited to what he calls Trumps troll army racists and conspiracy mongers The New York Times came with the same conclusion noting that the strongest opposition to bombing Syria came from the quote now small but influential white nationalist movement The Washington Post agreed with this assessment they said the wars critics hold quote racist anti-semitic and sexist views But wait a second, why would white supremacists oppose the bombing of a non-white country? Wouldn't they be for it? That was never explained by the way. It's just asserted because of course it makes no sense. It's literally absurd! Like so much news coverage is not news but propaganda designed to smear and deceive rather than inform. The news on this topic has never been faker. Yeah he really needs to avoid hot tubs

57:24 He's getting himself in trouble. One add-on clip to that, again I think with the same kind of messaging as in The New York Times and elsewhere you're a racist if you're not for this listen to O'Reilly this is O'Reilly lecturing about believability and he says this punchline well the punch line I'll comment on it after you've done In that area is that correct? That's correct Okay now Ron Paul's of the world say oh no, no. This is a how solid How solid is the evidence that Assad killed these 20 children with poison gas? We really have a tight lock on this intelligence I was told by my contacts that we have very... A tightlock? Is that it does not term I'm familiar with I know what I mean. Tightlock! I believe she means they're not letting it out

58:15 Let me just check. What could... I mean, that's worth looking up. Tite Lock, Consulting Book of Knowledge. Tite Lock. Got a lot of products! Come on, Definition. Come on. Tite Lock, A disease- Huh? How can this be right? We'll do Merriam Webster, that's our favorite. Here we go, Tite Lock. A disease of cotton caused by several fungi and characterized by failure of the affected locks to fluff, and by discoloration and weakening of the fibers." Huh? Yeah. I guess Han's direct response to that... What is she talking about?! These 20 children with poison gas We really have a tight lock on this intelligence. I was told by my contacts that we have very high confidence And there were multiple streams of information from overhead imagery

59:15 to radar from information gathered by our partners in the region and today they released a graphic that showed radar information and you can see these Syrian government jets over the site of the attack twice within a nine minute time slot which is exactly when the sarin gas was released so there's really no doubt. No doubt, there is always doubt among those who will not believe no matter what you present to them That's correct. That refers, I think it is referring to the weapons of mass destruction or Colin Powell holding up a yellow cake? Or any of these things what he talking about? Well they can really only be... The shut-up slave moment! For sure there can only be a couple of things going on the way i see and the first one is Occam's razor Trump is an idiot you got tricked I had my military guys say that I think he got tricked into doing this

CHAPTER 16 / 47 Discussion

No Agenda Analysis, The Trump-Putin Pipeline Deal

A geopolitical theory suggests the Syrian strike was "theater" designed to facilitate a grand bargain between the U.S., Russia, and China regarding energy pipelines. The analysis posits that the conflict is actually about competing gas pipelines from Qatar and Iran-Iraq-Syria. In this view, Trump and Putin are working to eliminate the Saudi-backed Qatar pipeline in favor of a direct Russian-Turkish-European route.

pipeline· qatar· syria· vladimir putin· donald trump· turkey

1:00:10 that he got tricked. Now we heard from the analysis, he believes quite a bit of it but is unsure about other things this came at an interesting time when he was with Jingping and you should note as JC Buzzkill Jr pointed out who has a friend in Uzbekistan and in the circles of gossips, and he's in the Middle East now. In the circles of gossips that...in other words what you would get from an Uber driver apparently King Abdul from Jordan was visiting Trump couple days before and talked him into this Well it's the same players Here is how I see This my no agenda analysis on this event And with this I'm giving President Trump A lot of credit

1:00:57 So we have to be wary of that because we do not know if his mind is like this. The previous gas attack in 2013 was identified as chemical weapons from Turkish military slash Turkish rebels and we know we have the Turks in the region, uh...because they hate the Kurds and they're killing the Kurds We need to go back to the original premise, the original problem here is that... ...the Saudis wanted a pipeline from Qatar through Homs and Aleppo. This is why we called out those two cities specifically way before any of this started years ago! Homs and Aleppo keep your eye on those two cities That's where all the crap going- well you have Raqqa now but that's where all the crap went down That is the path of the pipeline from Qatar Please look at your maps

1:01:43 all the way up north through Syria into Turkey, which is a gas pipeline. And Assad, who is friends and a client state as we call it of Russia said no that's okay. We really like your pipeline idea but we're going to keep our pipeline which is the Iran-Iraq Syria pipeline which of course Russia is partner in and that goes right into the Mediterranean and from there they want to ship the gas up through Cyprus and Greece and then hopefully into Italy and then into the rest of Western Europe Now, we have a lot of problems. Trump has a problem, Putin has a problem, Turkey has tons of problems... Turkey is the bad actor in this case! The way I see it, A deal was struck between the three horsemen and that's United States, Russia and China And this is about the TPP which means the Trump-Putin pipeline That's where this is going

1:02:42 We bomb the airfield, which is complete theater. The Russians knew about it ahead of time everyone knew, which like poo-poo-poo-poo-poo-poo So it brings about a whole bunch of different feelings in the United States Which you know that's quite good actually there's a lot of healthy conversation back to things we care about like authorization abuse and military force etc At the same time, it totally clears the way because now Turkey is okay. Well you know maybe we'll just hang over here we do this little false flag because Putin promised that if we do this will get our own pipeline which we know This has been a negotiation We're going to get our own direct pipeline from Russia so we don't really need the Qatar pipeline Everyone's saying screw the Saudis! We don't need them anymore Their gambit went away when Hillary Clinton lost

1:03:32 because she was the key. So we have Putin and Trump now able to go in and eradicate any rebels who are in there, any of them everybody gets their pipeline and I think in a few months Trump will be seen as quite the smart guy he did what he promised to do he brought peace back to the region no one gives a crap about the pipelines no one understands it but that's what it's really about and then and we say, you know what? It's America. It's Russia and yes it's China and fuck the EU. Well I think there is a lot of missing pieces to that thesis. Possibly But like I can't see anything wrong with it And if was exactly that then it wouldn't surprise me. I'm hoping its that because that shows that there is actual intelligence in Washington DC If it's the other option We're doomed

CHAPTER 17 / 47 Discussion

White House Intrigue, Bannon vs. Kushner Conflict

Internal tensions in the Trump White House are explored, specifically the reported power struggle between Steve Bannon and Jared Kushner. While Bannon was removed from the National Security Council, he remains present in the "war room" during military operations. The influence of Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner is criticized as a "family business" approach to governance that conflicts with Bannon's nationalist agenda.

steve bannon· jared kushner· ivanka trump· reince priebus· national security council· globalists

1:04:28 Well what is the other option by your standards? That Trump has just become all in with the neocons and he's okay with all of this. It doesn't make sense to me either but that is Occam's razor from what we have been told by the mainstream media I believe my version a version of that is what is really going on. It could be, but there's a couple... There's some house intrigue that's kind of a problem it seems to me which is the Bannon getting kicked off of one thing and being downgraded Yeah but hold on there's a picture of Bannon so that may have just been procedural or whatever I don't know if that was coincidence the timing of it But you look at the picture of the war room who's in there? Steve Bannon sitting right behind the president So that should be the National Security Council

1:05:16 You know, so he's not on the council but he is in the room. And the guy I told you about Gary Cohn fucking lawyer Goldman Sachs guy Yeah, that's a picture. But what is he doing in there at all? Picture or not? Now the problem again this goes to kind of the right wing conspiracy people and Coulter being at the top of the list claiming that going back to Occam's razor which is Trump's an idiot and you suckered into doing this by his daughter Ivanka and Jared Kushner. I like that.

1:05:52 Jared Kushner, who I still wonder and I think Bannon... Now this could be bullcrap. It could be just theater but you know supposedly Priebus has to break up fights between Bannon and Kushner. Kushner is a Democrat? Kushner is a globalist? Yeah hold on actually have a clip about this if you wait one second let me just play this This is from I'm not sure where it's from but it's about the paranoia and unrest in the White House. I think that'll fit into what you're talking about here. The blistering series of tweets raised extremely serious accusations about the Obama administration wiretapping phones at Trump Tower with zero evidence to back the claims. Why is this guy screaming at me? Trump's team stormed the talk circuit echoing his outbursts

1:06:42 I think the American people have a right to know if this happened. And God bless the United States What spurred the roaring tweet storm? After the president's widely praised speech to Congress, sources say he was furious to see questions about his team's ties to Russia again stealing headlines Particularly galling, his attorney general Jeff Sessions' decision to step back from an investigation into the matter. I have recused myself in the matters that deal with the Trump campaign One source told CNN nobody has seen the president that upset while others said in a meeting laced with expletives Trump accused his staff of fumbling the session situation creating a mini disaster Disaster! TV cameras captured and animated meeting in the Oval Office

1:07:31 involving Trump's senior staff, including Chief Strategist Steve Bannon, Press Secretary Sean Spicer Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner and chief of staff Reince Priebus. There was nothing wrong with talking to the foreign... Was there anything wrong about talking about sanctions? The current sanctions that were being put in place by the Obama administration I just answered the question Although Priebus has been visible in defending the White House against the Russia questions and was originally slated to travel to Florida with the president for the weekend, that changed. Priebus stayed in D.C., some sources say because of the chaos The White House says he had a family commitment I don't like the idea of Ivanka and this Kushner guy being at the White House at all

1:08:21 You know, the problem with this is that shows a tendency to run this the way you would run a big family business. We have a small circle of people and you have your conciliaries and your confidants and they have your ear and you make decisions. That's all the hallmarks of that by having that close inner circle I really think Trump is seeing that that's not working Well let's hope He's got to fire his daughter. Yeah, or Jerry... She's gotta go! What does she bring to the party? Besides oh she's a level head, you should do dad, all that. Well well I mean she probably knows his outbursts and personality but i have a clip i know exactly what she brings to the party and who better to tell us than Debbie Wasserman Schultz

CHAPTER 18 / 47 Discussion

Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Ivanka Trump Criticism

Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz criticized Ivanka Trump on CNN, claiming her complicity in her father's agenda makes her an opponent of women's rights. The segment also notes a New York Times correction that mistakenly identified Ivanka as Donald Trump's wife. Additionally, the hosts point out that the New York Times omitted the 2013 chemical attack from a recent list of Assad's atrocities.

debbie wasserman schultz· ivanka trump· cnn· women's rights· new york times

1:09:12 She's a woman, she knows women. She was talking to Aaron Burnett from CNN—a woman? What the administration's agenda is and stand up for it. When she says she's fighting for women you know she's going to be attending this conference in Europe this spring when she said she's working on behalf of women do you see any evidence of that at this point I would say that because her complicity with her father's agenda she's fighting women That's right, woman hater Ivanka Trump who the New York Times they did place a correction but they said they incorrectly identified her as Donald Trump's wife. Oh you just mixed up with Ivana? Yeah it was very there's a lot of careless news reporting New York Times yeah The New York Times figures i think that something happened recently there and this is really uh it's really deteriorated that

1:10:09 down for the entire operation. I think what that Tucker Carlson pointed out with a New York Times are claiming that the only people that, you know are against what Trump did or a bunch of white nationalists come from and The New York Times I read here they They had a list of all atrocities That Syrian President Bashar al-Assad had committed and they compiled a list on the list here in New York Times But you know what's missing from the list? What? The 2013 chemical attack. It's not on this list. Oh, that's funny. It's very telling because they got the list from the CIA it's the actual list! They know they have...they actually understand what happened or what did not happen

1:11:01 Yeah. It's crazy, all right you were making a point there was it that reminds me I just did a little side of that kind of missing this the problem with giant mechanisms the machine that really runs everything missing from the FBI crime statistics is the whole Sandy Hook thing hey you gotta be careful man you get kicked off for shows we're talking about that well you can kick me off this show Well you won't get kicked off this show You'll get a bonus when you do that I did have one other counter clip to this and this is former ambassador. Let me see what it says, former... No, I'm sorry! Former Deputy National Security Advisor Ambassador James Jeffrey This was on CNBC which i like that because you know it's an NBC product yet they don't really toe the line all the time They're just trying to... They're all about stocks They are trying make people buy crappy stocks

CHAPTER 19 / 47 Discussion

James Jeffrey, Diplomatic Tradecraft and State Department Militarization

Former Ambassador James Jeffrey praised the Trump administration's diplomatic execution of the Syrian strike, noting that Tillerson and Mattis coordinated effectively with allies. However, the discussion questions why the State Department is taking the lead on military briefings rather than the Defense Department. This shift is viewed as a continuation of the "militarization" of the State Department that began under Hillary Clinton.

james jeffrey· cnbc· rex tillerson· james mattis· state department· colin powell

1:11:57 I'm surprised at how quickly he moved. And despite all this talk about chairs not being filled in the bureaucracy, I am impressed that his people Tillerson and Maddison, they called all of our allies. They alerted everybody. They were doing all of the right tradecraft diplomatic things as if they'd been in a job for six years. This was very impressive from a diplomatic standpoint, it's one reason why everybody around the world is applauding this rather than criticizing it and again that puts pressure on Russia and will be noticed by China that's helping the atmosphere of the meeting

1:12:37 All right, so let's talk about Tillerson's upcoming meeting to Russia. What message is he mandated to give? Do we come out of that meeting next week with a different sense of U.S.-Russia relations? Hey the only thing you really need about that meeting is it hasn't been canceled and if Donald Trump won, Putin zero. Essentially if the Russians don't cancel that meeting they'll basically be saying you can smash the hell out of my ally Assad's air force because he was even though we won't admit it a bad boy on chemical weapons and we still want to talk to you because we have important issues

1:13:21 So that kind of adds a little bit of strength to my argument. No, I agree about Tillerson going there. Can I...here's another kind of interesting just open question especially since we started with the Tillerson stuff where he's talking about what a great success this was even though it didn't touch the runways. Why are we even listening to Tillerson? How come you're not listening to the head of the Defense Department? What does the State Department got to do with this? That is the key question That is the key question. When Hillary was here, did she militarize the State Department so they can now talk on behalf of the Defense Department and the U.S Navy? We could have had... Remember when the old Gulf War took place and we had Colin Powell and Schwartzkopf and the two of them were like giving us all these briefings that didn't happen to them. That's actually how I got to eventually showing Tina Wag the dog because i said Have you ever seen the Peter Arnett

1:14:17 Videos and not Peter and the other guy as well from CNN where they're in the hotel on the you know The blue screen Duncan and their ducking there pretending that this incoming bombs, and she'd never seen it of course She was blown away. He's like what? What did you go to YouTube is all there yeah? It's all there Yeah, so yeah Hillary did have a little bit of those tendencies to answer your question. So I mean that is the land of unconfirmed... Yes we came! We saw! He died! Yeah, so the answer is yes she militarized it. Of course she did now what will happen next and that of course will either happen today or Thursday

CHAPTER 20 / 47 Discussion

Syria Strike as Message to China and North Korea

The timing of the Syrian missile strike during President Xi Jinping's visit to Mar-a-Lago is interpreted by some as a strategic message to China and North Korea. While the official narrative suggests it was a display of military resolve, the hosts remain skeptical, characterizing the event as a setup. The segment includes a lighthearted tangent about whether the Chinese president enjoys sourdough bread.

xi jinping· mar-a-lago· north korea· china· sourdough· un security council

1:14:58 That's just the agreement with the universe. Show days is when it goes down. I don't think today is up for grabs, I think today is going to be clear What is an interesting theory that I'm seeing crop up Is kind of a middle-of-the road approach People saying well this was clearly a message to North Korea Kim Jong Yum Yeah, Kim Jong-un and I'm not buying that at all. I am either you get you get China You get China in the hey, hey China look what we did. Look what I just did I think the argument is never made, which could be made if they wanted to. Although this is all scripted messaging because you could have made this argument he had Xi in his Mar-a-Lago place when he sent the missiles out and this was... The message here would be okay You guys are in the United Nations. You and Russia both vetoed that the Security Council proposal but we're gonna launch missiles anyway

1:16:02 Have another bun. Do you like sourdough? I wonder what the Chinese president thinks of sourdough. Oh, he's gotta love it. Everybody loves sourdough! So if you hear me in particular laughing about this, I don't believe any of this. This whole thing is one big setup. I've been around too long... ...I've seen these ops and how the media's responding. I see the video that we're being given. I hear all the talking points. I really don't believe anybody died!

CHAPTER 21 / 47 Discussion

Lindsey Graham, Syrian Intervention and Troop Buildup

Senator Lindsey Graham argued on Tucker Carlson's show for the removal of Bashar al-Assad and the training of Syrian opposition forces. Graham compared the situation to pre-9/11 Afghanistan, a comparison Carlson challenged by noting the 9/11 hijackers were primarily Saudi. The discussion also references a significant U.S. troop buildup in Kuwait as a precursor to expanded operations in Syria.

lindsey graham· tucker carlson· syria· afghanistan· saudi arabia· kuwait

1:16:38 I have no evidence of this. I have no evidence even of our missile strikes, i don't really even have any evidence. I just have you know this... B-roll and a sound effect yeah and Brian Williams saying they're beautiful so beautiful right? In the sense he was actually masturbating when he said that. Let's listen to Tucker Carlson again. I'm sorry, I did what you said you wouldn't do but the guy is on a roll. Here he is and there's a three-parter but it's not that long. This here he is with the douchebag of the decade. He brings him on. I don't know why this guy comes on. I didn't know why came on but he comes on Lindsey Graham

1:17:23 Besides Japan. Here's what I would do. Okay, I just wanted the implications of what he did are fascinating to me your compatriot Senator McCain said yesterday when asked well could this lead to a wider war with Russia said in effect bring it on He didn't you say we'll beat them they will lose because we are superior to them militarily. Nobody doubts that, the question is why would you want to go to war with Russia too? Are you for that also?" No what I'm for is giving Syria back to the Syrians. I'm for two things destroying radical Sunni Islam, ISIL and other groups inside of Syria so they won't become a safe haven for terrorist like Afghanistan was before 9-11 and I'm for replacing Assad not by the Americans, not by the Russians, not by the Iranians but by the Syrians. And the way you replace him is that you train Syrian opposition people to go take him on and eventually beat him because he has a poor hand." Now i think we should be listening to this complete jizzed up moron idiot

1:18:18 Because he may have the plan. This is maybe what Trump's plan is with Russia He may have the plan, and probably does have a plan. He's in the right committees to know the plans It's too stupid to shut up But listen to what he said there... He said that he doesn't want it become Syria by the way which is very diverse country with Christians and all these other people He says he doesn't want Syria to become a safe haven like Afghanistan was before 9-11. And later on in this thing, he says we should have occupied Afghanistan before 9-11 that's what a nutball this guy is! But... he says and I'm thinking does he know that the terrorists of 9-11 all came from Saudi Arabia? And almost none of them had any connection to Afghanistan Does he know this? Yeah i think he does and

1:19:09 He knows that, inherently he knows it. He knows this but that's not the message he is functioning on. And play the end of that clip again because there was another point I wanted to make. Yeah, he has a poor hand. So what is he using a poker analogy for? I don't know... Unless you're actually thinking it. You're playing thinking in poker and if your thinking in poker that means your thinking bluff. I'm giving you dings. You get dings for that! If you are going to use analogies use sports analogies. You do not want to use a poker analogy unless you are playing poker

1:19:56 So, anyway. On to number two. Okay so but that would not include the ISIS allied groups that we're fighting now and it would not obviously include the government groups who are fighting now or not include the Iranians who we hope to fight... That's exactly right. Or the Russians! The most serious. Or the Russians who were happy go war with perhaps the North Koreans who might want to go with you I'm losing track of some of the wars i guess my question is what would this cost if we did what you're calling for 7000 American troops in Syria how long will they be there won't that cause well I've had to interrupt there for a second. What did I tell us? That's how I talk about us, what did I tell us three weeks ago? What did you tell us? I told you there was a huge troop buildup in Kuwait City and that was for something Yeah Here it is! You might be right this could be it Stop stop On the Twitters one of the... There's an Arab woman who does a lot of tweeting And she's like

CHAPTER 22 / 47 Discussion

Holly Williams, Syrian Border Reporting Discrepancies

CBS correspondent Holly Williams is scrutinized for her reporting locations near the Syrian border. The hosts track her movements from Ankara to Antakya, questioning the proximity of her "on the border" reports to the actual conflict zones. The segment suggests her reporting may be part of a broader intelligence or propaganda effort rather than standard journalism.

holly williams· cbs news· syria· turkey· antakya· ankara

1:20:52 She's just very good tweeter. I don't know what agency she works for, but she is a good... She's a sharia tweeter? No, she is not a sharia-ish. Yes, she's the opposite and she says that there are troops already moving into Syria. I would totally believe that! And this also makes sense when you think of we'll get back to this clip if you want to jump it also makes sense because of the movement of and you can play the clip where is Holly Williams Okay, Holly Williams reports tonight from the Syrian border where survivors of the gas attack are being treated She's on the Syrian border again. But no she's not last time she was in Ankara that was on Turkey No

1:21:35 a And she's moving around, this woman. She said Antakya instead of Dabashi. I never heard of this! It's near the Syrian border but it's not that close because i went to Google and got the directions from Antika to the Syrian border on the google maps How many camels did you say you'd need? Well you need a head southwest on the NOU road then you take right then left

1:22:12 It's like, you know a few meters and then they start to drive. And it's like 38 miles at the round after the roundabout when you take the second exit and you drive turn around again, you get another road and then you get to entering Syria at after 538 about 50 about close to 50 miles 40 to 50 miles which means I'm on the border of San Jose right now. And, and I don't even think of myself on the border of San Francisco which is seven miles away so this is okay. So then I followed her Friday presentation... Wait do you have a wall with pictures and with yarn? String. So Holly

1:22:55 She moves, I don't know what she's doing here. This is that little peninsula that was talked about earlier in the show that used to be part of Syria and she's there for some unknown reason and then... Oh that's a little good piece there near Latakia? Is that it? Yeah! That little chunk. Right. That's her paradise yeah. Shes in there and uh... Thats a very safe zone there although they've had some crap land there but its pretty safe So on the Friday show, she was in Ankara and then she went to this place. And then on a Friday, and I don't know why...I think she's a spook! And then on the Friday show now she is doing another report where is she now? They didn't say border, she's in Istanbul again

1:23:34 So she's hanging out doing something. And maybe there is troop movement, maybe they're crossing the border as we speak? Could be. Okay so but that would not include the ISIS allied groups that we're fighting now and it would not obviously include the government groups who are fighting now or not include the Iranians who we hope to fight right or the Russians who were happy go to war with perhaps North Koreans who might want to go with you I'm losing track of some of the wars i guess my question what this cost if we did what your calling for 7000 American troops in Syria How long would they be there and what would that cost? Well, I think they'd be there long enough to defeat ISIL. that have to stay in some level. How long do you think that would take? As long as it takes to help train a Syrian opposition, to get a peace deal in Geneva The way the war ends is through political reconciliation Right now Assad is winning He's backed by Russia and Iran Assad was on the ropes four years ago And Obama refused to act against sound military advice To help the Syrians because Assad Is a cancer in the region he's destabilizing force

CHAPTER 23 / 47 Discussion

Lindsey Graham, Risks and Costs of Syrian War

In a heated exchange with Tucker Carlson, Senator Lindsey Graham dismissed concerns about the financial cost of maintaining 7,000 troops in Syria indefinitely. Graham argued that the cost is "minimal" compared to the risks posed by ISIS and the Assad regime. Carlson questioned the logic of the intervention, suggesting the U.S. itself has become the primary destabilizing force in the region.

lindsey graham· tucker carlson· syria· isis· military budget· intervention

1:24:35 How is he the destabilizing force? We're the destabilizing force. He's full of shit, this guy. Dang! And once they have these troops and unlimited budget apparently because he... Tucker in his third clip just keeps grilling him about the money and he refuses to budge Oh that's the third one sorry. He will never be legitimate leader of Syria in the eyes of most Syrians in the region so he has gotta go. What?! Let me hear that again This guy gives me joy. He will never be the legitimate leader of Syria in the eyes of most Syrians in the region. They voted for him, I don't know what you're talking about. So he's gotta go and he was on the ropes and Obama gave him a pass and now Trump got this mess on his watch here is what I tell people What would it cost? What would it cost to do what you want to do 7000 troops there indefinitely? I can't put...I'll get a number for it. I'd tell you what it costs Did not think through what the costs might be when you called for it It's minimal compared with threats we face

1:25:35 Oh, there you go. What? That's a great risk reward scenario It's minimal. Minimal compared to the risks we face from Syria? Yeah. Mm-hmm what risks do we face from Syria? So yeah get rid of this guy and put it mildly what risks Do we face from ISIS I mean what there's a couple of followers here that have blown up shot a few people now that We don't have a Muslim ban I don't know this side show. This guy is the worst, but you might be right? I never thought about him being a harbinger Yeah yeah, I listened to him It's hard by listen to him because he had he knows what's going on He's on there your right he's on the right committees John with that and with that I do have to Thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you John C or the sea stands for cruise missile sound effect

Hillary Clinton, Women in the World Summit

Hillary Clinton spoke at the Women in the World Summit, wearing what she described as a "citizen hat" resembling a "pussyhat." She criticized male politicians for their stance on maternity care and accused Vladimir Putin of interfering in the U.S. election because he is "not exactly fond of strong women." The hosts interpret her comments as a pivot toward a potential run for Mayor of New York.

hillary clinton· pussyhat· vladimir putin· maternity care· nicholas kristof· women in the world

1:32:55 Congratulations, man. What's pale of the skins? Yes well congratulations made me very happy now you played a couple clips there by Tucker I want to play you something There's a lot of hate going on for men right now You heard Debbie Wasserman Schultz putting Ivanka Trump in the men category as far as I'm concerned just hating on women and Where is my clip here this was Let me see what this was hold on second BFV there was a Hey, hold on a second. This is going horribly wrong! Where'd my clip go? Oh here it is now I got it. Now I went in the wrong bin and happens okay here we go. Well no actually let's start first with the full piece of Hillary Clinton just about her hating on men this was at the Women In The World Summit We already played a short clip for it on the last show Why is she even doing this because she's going to be running for I think mayor of New York

1:33:58 Oh, this would be a good one. Yeah I think that's what the idea is. Yeah, I think you're right. Something like that... So here she is talking to... Ah who's the douchebag? You'll hear it. Nicholas Kristoff Okay! I will put it this way as a person I'm okay As an American I'm pretty worried so I think I'll take off my person hat and put on my citizen hat which surprisingly looks a lot like a pussyhat And there's a lot to be concerned about things that come out of some of these men's mouths. Men! Why do we have to cover maternity care? Oh, I don't know maybe you were dropped by Immaculate Conception

1:34:40 I think what Putin wanted to do is to sow distrust and confusion as well as influence our election. And you know he's not exactly fond of strong women so if add that together and that's pretty much what it's... There ya go! That's right Yeah, that's right. Get rid of the penis party now regarding Tucker Carlson Do you remember he had I think we played some clips from it? He had the freelance writer but a writer for Teen Vogue on who was writing about Trump and He was pretty much Was unkind to her

CHAPTER 26 / 47 Discussion

Tucker Carlson, Teen Vogue Thigh-High Boots Controversy

A conflict between Tucker Carlson and a Teen Vogue writer is revisited during a women's leadership event featuring Diane von Furstenberg. Carlson's comment that the writer should "stick to thigh-high boots" is condemned by the panel as an example of white male vengeance and misogyny. The editor of Teen Vogue defends the journalist, while the hosts analyze the "small penis" insults directed at Carlson.

tucker carlson· teen vogue· lauren duca· diane von furstenberg· ariana grande· misogyny

1:35:30 because she couldn't answer any simple question, you know the way he usually sets his guests up and confuses them. Right. Makes him look stupid and you know she was this woman was trying to explain how it was okay to write about Ariana Grande's knee-high boots and then the next day write about Trump being a shitty president And so this exchange was played at... This was another let me see what was the name of this event? Women are organizing man! I pay attention to it was Diane von Verstenberg. She's the one that you'll hear in this as well, also the editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue magazine and she's there of course to defend her freelancer but they play a little bit of this clip at the end and it's a little hard to hear but the way Tucker signs off is he says yeah you know what? You should have stuck to knee high boots referring to the Ariana Grande story that the same journalist did

1:36:27 That was interpreted in a very interesting way by these women. Oh, I can see it you can see what's happening right? Oh yeah, get ready Did I also read Liam Payne is 100% certain One Direction will continue. Adriana Grande rocks the most epic thigh-high boots at Bumblebell in black China and Rob Kardashian went through the messiest breakup of 2016, those are your other pieces but i'm trying to get to what you're writing about Trump taking a break from the thigh high boots and ask what you mean about him committing psychological abuse on you? A woman can love Ariana Grande and her thigh high boots and still discuss politics...

1:37:07 there are those things are not mutually exclusive you know it's now that you bring up teen vogue we treat young women like they don't have a right to political conversation and like you can't be, enjoy Kylie Jenner's Instagram and worry about the future of this country. And those things are not mutually exclusive so if you know what I did write about Ariana Grande and i did write about the abusive Those pieces are a little smarter than your case about threatening the sovereignty of the whole religion. Alright, I gotta go. You should stick to the thigh-high boots. Did you hear that? Oh my god! So he says you should have stuck to the thigh high boots and then we get... Oh my god! That's an ISO. That is an ISO. That is the ISO.

1:37:58 I ISO'd it. Oh, you did the ISO? Yeah because if you hear it... That's outrageous! ...it gets so much better. He's talking about the article what do they think he's talking about that thing he's talking about should she just be barefoot and pregnant well well he's clearly in dimension A and he says you know what you should have stuck to thigh-high boots maybe he meant that as an insult that's totally possible oh no it's totally an insult but I don't- it wouldn't get you a- oh! Oh my god! Well that's what we did to these women. Did you hear that? Yeah, did you hear how i changed my eye so beautifully listen

1:38:44 See I've spent some time on that to make the ISO just perfect. I know That's why they call him fucker, okay, that's funny Yeah, that's why they call him fucker wait it gets better wait until you Diane von Furstenberg she's coming up Yeah I know. Yeah, let's discuss. You know it is only the vengeance of the white man with a small penis. It's only the vengeance of the white man with a small penis! Yes! Oh yeah they're beautiful When it comes to fucker we're definitely making small talk. Tell me what should

1:39:36 And this is the editor of Teen Vogue. What was he explaining? It doesn't matter. These women hate men! They hate, no... these women for sure they hate white men for sure and they're saying it this is beyond yeah and belittling at its finest as much that makes my blood pressure rise instantly just rewatching that

Gendered Communication Styles, "Keep Talking" Strategy

The discussion explores a perceived media strategy where female guests are encouraged to "talk through" male hosts to avoid being silenced. This is contrasted with the "excuse me" technique used to reclaim floor time. The segment also introduces the acronym "SHE" (Sexual Harassment Enterprise) in reference to Maxine Waters' comments on political scandals.

communication· gender politics· tucker carlson· maxine waters· sexual harassment enterprise

1:40:13 It makes me really proud because she held her own. That's right! Oh yeah, oh yeah. And what I learned from watching that because we think we've all probably been in similar situations Yeah She kept talking Yeah She kept talking Yep They over talked each other but she kept talking and I thought that was a takeaway for me personally as an international woman One of my biggest gripes Is people talking over each other or just talking through you and this is now heralded as something great No way, that's not great. Don't teach me that will be net doubt you mentioned it Just another one of those things I don't know don't teach your children that don't you know that she mentioned it yeah? I think this has been some sort of a talking point or meme or something because

1:41:01 Again, I've noticed this more than ever on these shows with Tucker and people like that who come from the other extreme. Women mostly and they do that. It's like they've been told to just keep talking. Well that's what you just heard! Keep talking! Talk through them! I know but now I realize it was something that was actually deemed as a way to go They're all doing it. So there's a like a messaging system this oh, that's a good idea I'll just keep talking and look like did you know they're yeah? It's unbelievable The way to go is the way you've pointed out some time ago Which I have not executed but I would which is that you don't talk over the guy you go excuse me Excuse me excuse me excuse no you can talk

1:41:47 Get them to stop talking. One of our producers sent me something to kind of balance out the war on men, and this is based on Maxine Waters who came up with that we're still waiting for this meme to pop but she came up with the sexual harassment enterprise which The War Room correctly identified as SHE which would be a fabulous acronym and something could be up with that Yeah, she's talking about these guys are sexual harassers. They're horrible so what producer sent in a little song little ditty It may be offensive to some that okay I'll be offended go on vagina the final frontier These are the voyages of the sexual harassment enterprise its continuing mission to explore strange new labia

You the Jury, Reality TV Courtroom Drama

The new Fox News show You the Jury, hosted by Jeanine Pirro, is described as a high-production courtroom drama where the audience votes on the verdict. The show features famous defense attorneys, such as the one who represented Casey Anthony, in a Roman Coliseum-style set. The hosts compare the spectacle to a "Death Row" gaming concept where executions could be televised for entertainment.

you the jury· jeanine pirro· fox news· casey anthony· reality tv· justice

1:42:55 To seek out new pussy regardless of sexual orientation. To boldly grab where no man has grabbed before. Like a little side thing here.

Like a dictator type thing? It's a big giant thing, it's like Mussolini would be up there and she crawls up to this thing and she is at the top This thing is well staged, it's got millions of dollars to set. And every time one of the attorneys are top notch world class attorneys from various cases like the defense guy in this one was Casey Anthony who got her off

1:46:07 And the prosecutor was some other character. They're very famous, they come into this thing... They have monstrous like Dallas football field size video screens on each side and as they show the evidence they do these packages Oh man, that's awesome.

The View, Tip Harris and Omarosa Disrespect

Rapper Tip "T.I." Harris appeared on The View to discuss Donald Trump's disrespect toward the African-American community and Snoop Dogg. Harris made a joke about Omarosa's teeth, which the hosts point out is hypocritical given the panel's usual stance on misogyny. The segment criticizes the audience for applauding insults against a woman while claiming to fight for respect.

the view· tip harris· omarosa· snoop dogg· misogyny· african-american community

1:48:07 So they have on rapper, they call him Rapper. Let me just find him here... Tip Harris Now Tip Harris is a nice guy! He seems like a really nice guy. You know he's dressed in a nice sweater, you know just dynamite looking guy Here's what went down. We have a community, okay? And in this community you are not going to come and challenge or try to belittle or demean us or our advancements by no means shape form or fashion whatever Snoop said he had the right to say it. He is protected by the constitution in saying that

1:48:45 So, you know so for Trump to get on use his platform to say You know how Snoop has a failing career whatever he said Everybody who's against him has a failing career I mean but but to be honest with ya feel like we have to protect our legends We have to protect our heroes the people who mean something to us in our Our community and our culture. Well, but President Trump says that Omarosa's role is to bridge a gap Within the African-American community, do you think he's... She can't even bridge the gap in her teeth. You know that? By the way why is that not misogynist? Why is that okay to make fun of a woman and I believe this to be racial joke as well she can't even take care of the gap in her teeth and all they'd all they do was just erupt in applause and it's fabulous

1:49:41 It's disgusting. This is really not for public consumption. I think you'd just like to watch that show to be disgusted. Do you hate watch? She can't even bridge the gap in her teeth, do you know what I'm saying? Do you think this administration will do anything? Just speaking openly and honestly about it before We can get anywhere with this present person of an office Before we get into what we have to address all of the disrespect and degrading that was done That was my issue when people were going in there to meet with him whether it was Kanye or whether it was Steve Harvey,

1:50:43 you know, Jim Brown whoever he was. Not that they shouldn't be mean but when you go in there and before you stand and smile and say this is a good man and take pictures like what about addressing the disrespect? So let me get this straight Let me get this straight Was Emma Rosa doing the disrespecting well no why is she disrespecting her yeah because that why is she jumping all over her I know Why are they all the whole audience disrespecting this woman She didn't do anything Yeah Because it's fun It's fun. So if it's fun for them, it should be fun for everyone? What are they bitching about? The killer is when you look at this guy's lyrics... ...it's all about hoes this and pimps that and bitch this and bitch that And yet here he is in his sweater being misogynist about a woman But everybody- I don't care but somebody called him out on it! I'm sure Whoopi came in and quoted him with his own lyrics Let me see.. That would be incorrect No of course not

1:51:43 Of course not. Ah, it's just... And the thing that bothers me is the audience The moronic women on The View is okay But this fun, this entertainment but the audience is so all in That is what scares me! Do you not see what you're doing? You're making fun of a woman Calling her names Insulting her That is all You done Good I'm sorry, I should say I was really blotto What, you stepped on it whole moment? I was really blotto Blotto that's yeah, I stepped on it. That's me so that's me from something I have an O'Reilly drunk or not drunk Oh boy, so Riley He was on the show the other day And I thought I don't know if this was taken up from some other part of the show if it was clipped in or whether but he's he Was it was like he was getting progressive you know? I think If you drink sometimes It takes like a while before it gets into the system and then as the show progresses You would be drunk at the end Yeah

Bill O'Reilly, Neil Gorsuch Confirmation Gaffes

Bill O'Reilly is mocked for several verbal gaffes during a segment on the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch. O'Reilly mistakenly referred to the justice as "George Gorsuch" and the late Justice Scalia as "Anthony" instead of Antonin. The hosts speculate that O'Reilly may have been "hammered" or under extreme pressure during the broadcast.

bill o'reilly· neil gorsuch· antonin scalia· supreme court· nuclear option· gaffe

1:52:45 And he's under a lot of pressure. I wouldn't be surprised if he has a few stiff ones before He does the show once in awhile, that's how we got into trouble in the first place isn't it? I don't know Okay So here we go this is O'Reilly drunk or not right and then I want you to catch the gaffe Personal story segment tonight, earlier today the Senate voted 40 I'm sorry 54 to 45. To confirm 49 year old Neil Gorsuch to Supreme Court he replaces the late Anthony Scalia joining us from Washington Jonathan Turley teaches law at George Washington University so is this good for the folks professor let's cut through the nuclear option and all this stuff the regular people or regular Americans many of whom don't even know who George Gorsuch is what he does

1:53:36 Well, there was a couple first I vote for hammered. Okay? It's not George Gorsuch No, George Gorsh nor is it Anthony Scalia its Antonin Scalia you got that one George Gorsh totally totally hammered hammered he is hammered O'Reilly Good one yeah drunk drunk drunk drunk Let's see, um... the new- I agree. We need some new memes that uh yes. I think there is a desperate attempt now that we saw the upgrade which Scott Adams called the upgrade then I gladly copied

Jeremy Scahill, Fascism and Media Platforms

Journalist Jeremy Scahill appeared on PBS to explain his refusal to appear on Real Time with Bill Maher alongside "fascists." Scahill argued that the Trump administration is normalizing hatred and that fascists do not have a right to a television platform. The hosts mock Scahill, suggesting he is simply bitter about being uninvited from major programs.

1:54:20 from Hitler to incompetent. That was a good upgrade I mean that's you get that at American Airlines, you're happy and you're almost at the front of the plane So there is a concerted effort by certain personnel to bring it back to white supremacy hating blacks hating Jews. I think Jews is the way to go now Let's start with Jeremy Skyhill Skahill Skyhill who I liked a lot You know, he did some pretty interesting documentaries. He was now he was a part early on of the $250 million word WordPress blog from Pierre Drive my car media. I believe he's still there. I thought he left no didn't leave in a huff? I'm pretty sure he did tie a be left in a huff. Okay, but we'll have to check on him anyway. He was on PBS

1:55:13 Talking about the president and you know just tying in all these memes to try and I think bring it back to that. As a fundamental principle, I don't believe that we should be debating fascists people that are openly advocating violence against undocumented immigrants or publicly shaming private citizens who are transgender Have you seen any of this taking place at the Trump White House? openly shaming transgender people? Well, I thought he was talking historically about some... maybe somebody in the 30s. Oh yeah maybe not. Uh, i'll debate anyone anywhere but I won't debate a fascist! I will resist a fascist! Well you're a dick

1:55:53 If there truly was a fascist, that's how you're going to resist? I'm not gonna talk to you. I will resist but i won't talk to you. I'll stand here with my arms folded and I won't talk to you. I will protest... I will resist but I wont' talk to you. ...a fascists, I would resist the fascists, I would protest the fascists But that is no where some exchange of ideas that we are, that the first amendment necessitates we engage in These are people who when were talking about fascists want extermination of black people They want the extermination of Jews. They are openly... Yes, this is the Trump White House! So he's implying that the Trump administration presidency wants to exterminate blacks? And Jews not just blacks and Jews come on! We need some Jews in there. But resist we must! ...of Jews they are openly advocating a form of hatred

1:56:44 That is vilified in history and somehow being normalized now by the president of United States. Yeah, it's been What this is a serious journalist this guy to this guy? This is he's off the rails yes sir that is vilified in history and somehow being normalized now by the President of the United States. I won't participate in any platform where someone is acting as though, well there's the fascist point-of-view and then there's Jeremy's point-of-view That's not a debate to me. That's not a debate... He's not being invited to anything anymore? Like, hey you're not invited anymore so you should complain really loudly that you won't do it anyway. ...a conservative Republican in Congress... I didn't want to go to your stupid birthday party anyway! Everyone has a right to free speech, I certainly agree with that but they don't have the right to speak on television Oh? Is that in the Constitution? You have a right to free speech? Well there's one more

MSNBC, Steve Bannon Anti-Semitism Allegations

MSNBC hosts Chris Matthews and Joy Reid are criticized for labeling Steve Bannon an "avowed anti-Semite" without providing evidence of such a vow. The discussion focuses on the use of terms like "cuck" and "globalist" as alleged anti-Semitic slurs. The hosts argue that these labels are being used as propaganda to force Bannon out of the White House in favor of Jared Kushner.

Kushner and his wife were sitting on the front row of the White House lawn today Steve Bannon is an avowed anti-Semite how on earth would Kushner and his wife be able to You heard Matthews even say avowed because Matthews apparently knows the definition but he leaves it at that. Steve Bannon is an avowed anti-semite? He vows this? He's really that bad? I don't want to make a light of it, i didn't hear that before. So ill just take your word for it! I didn't hear that before but go ahead yeah exactly we call that DOOSHBANG! Old douchebag But its a memo its going around MSNBC here's clip 2 Joy Reed and Howard Dean Joy Reed and Howard Dean Here is what I do know one I dont know anything about Jared Kushner but I know alot about Steve Bannon Steve Bannon hes a white supremist he has absolutely no

2:00:26 right to be in the White House. He has no right to have his values influence the President of United States as soon as he goes, the better and I don't really care who replaces him. Obviously I care Jared Kushner from a little I know about him is far better candidate than 36 year old white supremacist who hates Jews. I just don't think somebody like that belongs in the- Wow! So it comes out- You're getting a clip of the day for that. Damnit I'm gonna wait, there's more. Six year old than a white supremacist who hates Jews? Yeah. Uh-I just don't think somebody like that belongs in the White House. I can't imagine why Trump put him in there in the first place and the sooner he leaves the better for America. Yeah and he is with about three or four other people with questionable views on it. Well I assume they're going to go with him eventually yeah. Absolutely and the question I think a lot of people have had Elizabeth how does Jared Kushner abide somebody... He is a Jewish

2:01:19 He is Jewish, Donald Trump's daughter converted. But he's there living alongside somebody who uses terms like cuck and globalist which are known to be anti-Semitic and racial slurs. Oh hold on a second! Shut the front door. Cuck? Cuck and globalists are known anti-semites slurs?! That's what she said that's what Joy Reid said. that can't be true. Oh my god! Alongside somebody who uses terms like cuck and globalist which are known to be anti-semitic and racial slurs how does he deal with Bannon at all? Wow yeah I know, cuck is not anti-semite you fool. Cuck is a

Definition of Cuckoldry and Globalism

The hosts debate the modern and traditional definitions of the word "cuckold" (cuck) and its usage in political discourse. They reject the notion that "globalist" is an anti-Semitic slur, defining it instead as a political ideology opposed to nationalism. An anecdote about a man in Berkeley acting as a "third wheel" to a lesbian couple is used to illustrate the colloquial meaning of a "cuck."

cuckold· globalism· berkeley· jared kushner· anti-semitism· dictionary

2:02:15 Well, it's an... It means cuckold. It's a type of male who is subservient to his wife or woman of any sort. I'll give you an example And i'm not even Jewish! Here's the Jewish thing. I don't know what that, I guess it has to...I don't know where that even gets into the picture but so i'm in Berkeley and there's this you can see if the guy is I would say this would probably be a definite definitive type of guy There is a woman let two lesbians walking down the street holding hands kind over their just chummy And behind them is their guy they're a male with two babies. Oh wait Is this the trap baby?

2:02:55 No, this is not the trap baby. These are two babies he's just holding a couple of babies and he's obviously they're one of them to be one of these two women's had babies and He's like the third wheel. He's the husband kind of in this relationship And he's carrying the babies as the two women chat amongst themselves and it's like It that guy's a cuck you would be I think by definition Well may I read the actual definition for you? Okay Oh, that seemed oh, I'm sorry I got cuckoldry, that's not what we need. Cuckold here we go... Oh! Hmm me and Webster has a very different definition. Cuckold- A man whose wife is unfaithful Ah wait that's the original definition right in other words you have a guy whose wife was fooling around with a Jew? With a Jew?! Well apparently it has to be but does the Jew mention it? Yeah yeah here's how sorry there's a secondary meaning Man whose wife is unfaithful WITH A JEW

2:03:55 It says it right in the book of knowledge. What is her problem, this woman? She's perpetrating bullcrap on whoever listens to that show and it's just nasty propaganda I don't like it! Yeah and then to add to it calling someone a globalist is anti-semitic bullshit come on Well, we know Kushner is a super globalist Democrat so they'd love to have him replace Bannon. I think him... Who? Kushner. Kushner! That's what she was talking about. Yeah. Kushner and Ivanka should get out of the White House They're the problem. Yeah and how do you think they are the problem

2:04:45 Because they're the two globalists. They're like promoting a globalist agenda within the White House, which was elected to be America first! So in that... It would be a nationalist movement. John, hold on. Then it's true. They are both Jews? Oh yeah well there is a lot of... Okay, yeah no nations. No Jewish club most globalists are not Jews but Most Jews are globalist I know it's upsetting I know Most globalists or not used by most of you the globalist that's the best I can do But it doesn't mean if a globalist is a Jew by definition like she said right now Of course not

2:05:31 Of course not. And you don't have to like globalism, so in other words if you don't like globalism and your an anti-Semite that's what she implies? Yes that is what she is saying yes. Okay great thats a good one. I know okay now the timing is off we can take our break now which is just short. I got a couple of shorties we can get rid off. You got a clip list or something? Whatcha got? I've got alot of clips. Hold on hold on lets do it properly then All right, let's hear your clip list. I want to hear a couple of gaffs? Or do you want to hear my little thing with Hayden the ex-CIA guy who is still

CHAPTER 34 / 47 Discussion

Michael Hayden, "We Kill" Drone Policy

Former CIA Director Michael Hayden is featured in a C-SPAN clip discussing the shift from detaining terror suspects to killing them via drone strikes. Hayden explains that because detention has become "politically dangerous and legally challenging," the system now defaults to "pulling the trigger." He admits this policy provides less intelligence but argues it is a necessary consequence of public controversy over interrogation.

2:06:28 I didn't realize he's a Catholic boy and he must be ridden with guilt. Sounds like you want to talk about Haydn first? Yeah, let's talk about it okay we got here's the very short clip this is the Hayden We Kill not the Hayden We Kill 2L the Hayden We Kill clip that get do remind people exactly why we've stopped grabbing people and why we just kill people at random. That is an honorable position, okay? And one that people like me have to deeply respect What's happened... Okay? What's happened because this has become so controversial We have made it so politically dangerous and legally challenging to detain

2:07:14 That we don't We kill we kill Where was this? We kill. We don't we just kill he was giving a Speech to some government workers that was on C-SPAN obviously and he was he's promoting his new book Which is I think it's titled week. I didn't really break the law. I'm not really at war criminal This is a bumper sticker, it's a t-shirt. I mean do we kill brand could go places we killed we killed So this was his rationale, he says we kill and part two is more about how we just kill people now. We never grab anybody because it's kind of sketchy. He has the rationale for it which is kind of funny but it's sick. Since I left government, I probably got more fingers on this hand than people that we've actually detained outside of battlefields like Iraq and Afghanistan. That might be a little bit of an overstatement but

2:08:09 Now if you talk to the folks in President Obama's administration, they will tell you no-no-no. If we could capture it, then we would capture it but the historical record is... Look bureaucracy... I'm sure I've talked with some people who have experience in government here alright? You know how bureaucracies particularly federal bureaucracies work If you make something over here politically dangerous and legally challenging, the system just starts... water starts running in this direction rather than that direction. So what we have done because of the great controversy of this which Stephen has brought up very real and serious issues as a nation We've just kind of gotten too skittish And were over here pulling the trigger Which is not in bed Just doesn't create much intelligence

2:08:55 Now hold on a second. What he says there is that now all we do is just pull the trigger, in other words just murder people left and right. We kill yes? Yeah we kill and he says right after that which is not immoral! Well no... But it doesn't provide much intelligence, so it's kind of a drawback because we don't get any intelligence from it. But just murdering people at random without a court trial or anything is not immoral? That's what he said?! All right, so here he goes. Now he continues I have more clips that didn't bring because this thing is just he goes on and on the guys a complete psychopath. I think he's gonna come but i think he's very disturbed by his own activities He talks about some torture story and then a rationale for everything he's been doing And this again it's kind of creepy your safety

CHAPTER 35 / 47 Discussion

Michael Hayden, Patriot Act and Human Dignity

Michael Hayden defends the use of "enhanced interrogation" techniques, such as sleep deprivation, against high-value detainees like Mohammed Rahim. Hayden claims he acted out of a duty to protect American lives and prevent a second 9/11. The hosts characterize Hayden as a "guilt-ridden Catholic" trying to rationalize state-sponsored torture and surveillance to the public.

michael hayden· patriot act· surveillance· mohammed rahim· sleep deprivation· torture

2:09:51 We actually think what we're doing is protecting Americans' way of life. And I make the point in the book that frightened people don't make good Democrats or Republicans, small ds and small rs. They start to get frightened. They don't mind gnawing on their neighbors liberties and privacies they get really good and scared they start gnawing on their own And so one of the reasons we did push back, you know playing to the edge right not unlawful that using everything that law and policy said we could do. And using it pretty aggressively was not just that it kept us safe but frankly that we knew if we failed again

2:10:32 if we had a second 9-11, right? If some of you have gas about the Patriot Act, you're little concerned about renditions. If you're nervous about surveillance I can't imagine what it was that would've done collectively if we would have had a second catastrophic failure and so one of the items of conscience that we had was as tough these decisions were if they were inside the line and they actually made a difference, you need both You're almost duty bound to go do them. I tell a story in the book, I told you only had two detainees right? But i did authorize techniques against one of them A fellow named Mohammed Rahim because we actually thought he knew where a bunch of senior Al Qaeda folks very senior were living and he was tough He wouldn't talk Why would he say senior al-Qaeda folks why does he diminish it that way instead of saying Senior al-qaeda operatives war warriors or something anything but folks

2:11:29 I don't know. That's kind of, you know... It shows an inherent he is not afraid of it He is a very interesting character, I have to say We were a bunch of senior Al-Qaeda folks Very senior And he was tough and wouldn't talk And I remember sitting there with the order You killed him You know Catholic grade school Human dignity With the order Saying do I want to subject another human being Another enhanced interrogation. In this case, it was sleep deprivation that was the real thing I was authorizing and now you know...I wish for all the world that somebody else had to make that decision alright? Now I couldn't do violence to my personal conscience but in addition to my personal conscience I carried yours or at least I carried your well-being. I have to say something about this uh..I know many military people spooks none of them have ever

2:12:33 As far as I know, publicly spoken about this type of thing. It is unspoken! You don't talk about who you killed... Who you tortured- I'm sorry, enhancedly interrogated This isn't- this is outside the norm I think he's a guilt-ridden Catholic boy. Could be, and he's looking for rationales... He's coming up with, you know, I did it for you! I did it for you! You know, all to protect you is what he starts that whole school of. He has a bad conscience, you're right. A really bad one. Really bad or would just be like the typical guy you're talking about and just shut the f up? No, no, I knew what they do. He's a cuck. Cuck, Jew hater. The war room has given me the Urban Dictionary definition of cuck

2:13:19 Short verb form for cuckold to make your spouse a cuckold. Example, I want to get three black men with fat dongs. I need to cuck my husband after he porked the babysitter. Cuckold Can you use the word in a sentence please? All right we gotta take a break but i do wanna play three little clips that talk about our industry our little industry here The disdain of mainstream media for what were doing and that is of course podcasting Podcasting is the lowest rung in the show. We could do this segment forever Yep, we could but today we'll start off with three short clips all equal length from Family Guy Hey You know what guys? This right here this rambling boring conversation containing already made before observations This could be a podcast

Family Guy Podcast Satire, Birthday Donations

The show plays a clip from Family Guy that satirizes podcasting as a "rambling, boring conversation" that anyone with a computer can do. This leads into a large block of birthday donations for John C. Dvorak from listeners in Australia, the UK, Sweden, and the US. Notable donors include Chef James, Lance Forrest, and Lucero Moze, who comments on the "gas pipe" theory of the Syrian war.

No Agenda Knighting Ceremony, Sweden Terror Update

Christopher Decker and Chuck Kendrick are officially knighted in the No Agenda tradition for their financial support. Following the ceremony, a report from Sweden notes that a terrorist truck attack occurred just one day after a major police and military training exercise for that exact scenario. The hosts suggest the timing of such exercises and subsequent attacks is a recurring and suspicious pattern.

Joseph Jakubowski, Wisconsin Manifesto Manhunt

A nationwide manhunt is underway for Joseph Jakubowski, a Wisconsin man who allegedly stole firearms and sent a 161-page anti-government manifesto to President Trump. The FBI is offering a $10,000 reward for his capture. The segment also mentions that the "Newseum" in Washington D.C. is currently exhibiting the Unabomber's cabin, which the hosts find to be a strange coincidence.

joseph jakubowski· wisconsin· fbi· manifesto· donald trump· newseum

2:21:21 I think not. Well that reminds me of this sketchy story from our side of the water, which is the manifesto guy! You got something from the manifesto guy? I have two clips actually, of him talking to a camera. The manifesto guy is the guy who's sent some big manifesto to the president and it's a big deal and FBI has gotta come in. You can play this and we'll catch up quickly. Police are searching for a man accused of sending an angry manifesto to President Trump Law enforcement officials are calling the Wisconsin man a national threat after he allegedly stole handguns and rifles. Will Carr is live in Los Angeles with all the details, Will? Okay so first of all this is all taking place in Wisconsin Yeah So why is the guy live in Los Angeles

2:22:15 Because he's on I know why because it's on the border of Wisconsin. It's the borders. Let's get over this We're not gonna get over it John, it's not gonna happen Here we go with the rest of the story. Ardell, this is now a nationwide manhunt with the FBI offering a $10,000 reward It all started on Tuesday when authorities say that Joseph Jakubowski broke into a gun store in Janesville Wisconsin He allegedly stole 16 high-end firearms including at least two assault rifles Authorities believe he also has a bulletproof vest and a military style helmet A short time after the burglary, authorities say that Jakubowski torched his car and then disappeared. Fast forward to Thursday when a so-called associate told police that Jakubowski made a vague threat about his school. That caused a number of Wisconsin schools to close on Friday and at least one church has decided not to hold services this weekend

2:23:09 The same associate then told authorities about a 161-page manifesto that Jakubowski allegedly sent to President Trump. I'm told it includes anger towards public officials and law enforcement, calling both quote agents of the 1% who enslave and keep the population down. Cell phone video captured the moments right before the manifesto was put in the mail. Anybody that got this letter you might want to read it. There is it as you see its getting shipped. Revolution! It's time for change. While authorities think that Jakubowski is in Wisconsin, I'm told that the honest truth is he could be anywhere at this point. Arthel. Will Carr Thanks Will This is interesting in context of something else I saw because they say manifesto

2:23:59 Manifesto. Have we seen said manifesto? Can we read it somewhere? No, he dropped it in the mail! Depending on how the service is... We'll probably never see because it's being addressed to Trump I think The Ministry of Truthiness in Washington DC without doubt is the Newseum The Newseum It's a museum of Newseums Yes, Newseum is just outside of town And you know what's on display right now at Newseum? No Ted Kaczynski's cabin The Unabomber's cabin apart and put it together in the museum? Yes, the museum. Oh I'd love to see that thing! And it says a big sign please don't touch the unibombers cabin it says

2:24:41 Wow so that could just be coincidence, but that's a yeah I always go with my gut and then they might become a good marketing trick to get people the Museum which is it's always all these good spook talks. Yeah, you know whole lectures about you know Spycraft yeah are all at the museum yes is a news museum ha the new museum? I loved all of these reports about the Russian Navy approaching the US Navy. Have you seen that junker that they show this Russian ship is smoking? It's not even a nuke, it just an old smoky Joe looks like an oiler if the thing is That thing was it was a planned mission. It had to did something. It's honest. It's just on its way back home then I go into go fight and fight our Navy

Fact Check Labels, Chinese President in Alaska

Google News and Facebook have introduced "fact check" labels and warnings to combat fake news, which the hosts compare to wearing "verified" armbands. In a "fact check false" segment, Chinese state media is called out for incorrectly identifying Anchorage as the capital of Alaska during President Xi Jinping's refueling stop. The actual capital is Juneau.

google news· facebook· fact check· xi jinping· anchorage· alaska

2:25:29 They're not! And they keep identifying the same ship in different places. I have it all in the show notes, you can take a look at it's very funny. In our fact check false department... Oh, I have two fact-checked false items Okay well I'll kick it off and then you can take us there Google News and Facebag both now have started with their fact checked labels which include a tag next to appropriate news stories if you want to share that for Google So Google News, a purpose-built tag for our era of discontent fake news stories on social media and flat out lies. And on the face bag there will also be a flag and if you want to share a story it will stop you and say hold on this is fake news are you sure you want to share this? Okay cancel I don't know whatever the options are

2:26:25 So this is now taking place and of course it'll be very... And it's all part of these verified check marks, the little blue dots. It's all a part of the world moving forward you will have a blue check mark on your sleeve if you're okay Yeah In in the form of an armband by the way Probably that's the way to go to now John. This is a great product idea Finally armbands with the little verified checkmark little verified the blue thing What does it look like on Twitter when we see let me take a look at you because you are happy I'm sure You've never seen one no, I don't have one so The real you've been blackballed my friend. Oh, no they hate me That's why I though who knows if somebody some jilted lover? I don't know it. I think it's a microaggression against people with Tourette's Yeah It's a little blue flowery thing with the checkmark inside that would look dynamite on an armband Don't you think it would really nice to wear it around especially the mixers these little parties They have in Silicon Valley and then you can just say I'm verified

2:27:26 I'm sorry, you're not verified. Check me out. Yeah, I'm verified and it's not by Twitter says I'm verified as a human resource Well that's the way its gonna hit. Okay so what do you have on fact check? Alright I got a couple You have to identify the fake news part of it or the fact-check false let's go with Apparently on China TV which I watch now to get interesting very interesting perspectives on things So you know she she's over here the Prime Minister President And he stopped in Alaska on the way back. Who knew? Here's a clip. Okay, at the top of our program we follow Chinese President Xi Jinping to Alaska where he met with a state governor during a refueling stop following his meeting with US president Donald Trump earlier in Florida after arriving in the state capital Anchorage President Xi and Governor Bill Walker held a business meeting Dynamite What is the capital of Alaska

Senate Rule Change, Neil Gorsuch Confirmation

The U.S. Senate changed its rules to allow for the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch with a simple majority, effectively ending the 60-vote filibuster hurdle for high court nominees. The segment discusses the history of the Senate, noting it was originally designed to represent state interests rather than the voting public. A $500 billion fraud at HUD is mentioned as a story overshadowed by war coverage.

neil gorsuch· supreme court· filibuster· nuclear option· merrick garland· senate

2:28:27 I'm sure it's not Anchorage. It is Juno, yes so yeah so this is the Chinese news they can't even get to capital right? You can really get to Juno which is a great idea for a capital and it's funny because Junos easier for them to pronounce Anchorage Now, the Gorsuch guy got in. Yeah through that was kind of underreported that they changed the rules and it... Oh we wanted to report on the war come on what's more important? War yes So let's play this little this is changes in the Senate

2:29:07 This is a little rundown of what happened. So now you only need a majority vote to confirm a Supreme Court justice instead of 60. Another important story tonight, the Senate Republican leadership has now cleared the way for a vote tomorrow on President Trump's nominee to the Supreme Court but in order to do that they had to change the rules of the Senate and some senators say the Senate will never be the same That's right. The Senate doesn't change rules that often in this case they made it so that Supreme Court justices can be confirmed with a simple majority and not the 60 vote hurdle to stop a filibuster Republicans say Democrats forced them to do it by having a partisan filibuster, Democrats say Republicans are to blame for never allowing

2:29:50 President Obama's nominee Merrick Garland to even get a hearing. Privately, what senators say to me is they feel locked in a partisan system no one on either side wants to go against their voters or interest groups who treat these moments like purity tests The Senate was designed to be distanced from all that, to give- uh, to promote compromise. But has been growing steadily more partisan over the years and so this was really the period to end of a sentence. The United States Senate is not what it once was." And yet the Republican- the Republic will go on. John Dickerson, Jeff Pegues, thanks very much. What? What does that mean?!

2:30:26 He said the Republicans are gonna go on they're gonna know so he's thinking even though it's the Republic will go on yeah Yes, but he said Republicans because he's thinking everybody is what he's thinking. It's like a moron Now that funny thing about this whole debate about the Senate the Senate only recently threw in a constitutional amendment was elected by the public and Initially, when the Constitution was written and when the system was designed because of this problem that they're now experiencing. The Senate was chosen by the states so California state legislature would pick two people... Two senators yes

2:31:07 to represent the state in Washington. So they weren't worried about popular vote, which is what they're bitching about now because oh God everything's litmus test or whatever they do they're gonna get voted out of office if this... No that's not the way it was designed to begin with it was only designed after during that period of time where we were thinking why does this senator represent me? And then never were supposed to represent you there supposed to represent the state and the state's interest, not the public. Not the voting public. Correct So, but they should go back to it just to repeal that amendment. I like the old system and sound...I'm sure it was crummy when you were experiencing it because of the type of corruption that used to take place with that type of corruption doesn't exist anymore. There's new kinds of corruption. Well there is a $500 billion fraud at the Housing and Urban Development Department. Yeah, it's a good example of new corruption. That got almost no play! I know war, I know, I know war. War! Wooo!

Jared Kushner Hires Hollywood Publicist

Jared Kushner has reportedly hired a top Hollywood publicist who previously worked for tech giants like Elon Musk, Tim Cook, and Bill Gates. The hosts express skepticism about the move, questioning what a celebrity PR specialist can do for the White House. They specifically wonder about the publicist's role in shaping Bill Gates' image as a philanthropist.

jared kushner· elon musk· tim cook· bill gates· pr· hollywood

2:32:10 I did enjoy seeing that Jared Kushner has hired, uh... What was this douchebag's name? He hired a Hollywood bozo. Yes. Uh, Ruffle? This is a top Hollywood publicist for the White House That's an interesting idea! This guy has worked for Elon Musk Tim Cook Bill Gates Worked for Bill Gates Yeah, for his PR

2:32:47 Bill Gates was made and PR'd to death by Wagner, Edstrom and Pam Epstrom who just died recently. I would like to know what this guy did for Bill Gates? We can find out. I'm skeptical let's put it that way. Maybe during his most recent era where he is portrayed as the great philanthroper maybe had something to do with it although I doubt that Wagner or Epstrom was out of the picture Yeah, look into the trying who this guy is. I will I do want to mention some new technology? I don't we'd ought to do tech news I found about I thought about this just yesterday And it seems that I know how it caught fire and again This was what I was gonna say We need a terrorist attack on you new trinket.

Mastodon, Decentralized Social Media Analysis

Mastodon, a new decentralized social media platform, is discussed as a potential alternative to Twitter. While John Dvorak dismisses it as a "piece of shit" due to account creation difficulties, Adam Curry praises its "federated" structure, comparing it to email or IRC. The platform uses the term "toot" for posts, which the hosts jokingly associate with cocaine or flatulence.

mastodon· twitter· decentralized· open source· federation· irc

2:33:39 Well, yeah. Okay go on just talk about Mastodon I'll have my say after you're done No why don't you go first? It's a piece of shit! Why? I'm done okay your turn Okay i think it's very interesting I don't know why it's a piece of shit Well try to get an account I got an account I can't get one. Well, the whole beauty of it is it's decentralized or they call it federalized so its kind of like IRC the way that I see it there nothing more than ISJ. Ah exactly the same! It supposed to be like Twitter but it's like the IRC Hey I want just mention anyone who wants to know The IRC already exists

2:34:21 I've long thought putting a social media web interface on top of email or on top of IRC is the way to go. And what i like about this, so we can set up a no agenda server or multiple no agenda servers and that's your own community but you can then connect any other servers you want and that's how it builds out its decentralized social network. I like the concept! I'm going look into it. You could go ahead with the idea... But just because You called a piece of crap, I'll use it nice term. Because you couldn't get an account! How hard is that? If it's any good you should be able to get an account pretty quickly The other thing the reason I got into this because Lance Ulanoff from Mashable says we know how come he haven't blasted this thing and he wrote some nasty thing about it Why why did he blast it? Because of the structure or the way the servers are set up Wow man you need to check yourself bro

2:35:18 I'm just telling you, he blasted it and wondered why I didn't blast it. And so I looked at it... You just blasted it! And then you went along and blasted it because you haven't even tried it yet. You couldn't get an account There's no central authority This is an open source project That's the point If its a open source project wide-open how come you have to go through a central authority to get an account? You don't! YOU DON'T!!! You don't!! I signed up on an Italian server You don't So you're on an Italian server, how can I talk to you? By getting on any other server and then addressing my username. On that server if your servers not already connected to the Federation. Okay so this is the IRC with usernames that are permanent. Well that's... That is one thing that is interesting about the system

2:36:07 I could have, there's no central repository of usernames. So you could actually wind up with... so you have a URL and then your username but you could wind up with someone with the same username on a different server and i'm not sure how- look I only started looking at it, I got my account this morning in one minute wasn't that hard That is what could be a problem, but I'm just looking at the interface. I'm looking at the excitement around it. I'm looking at the number of servers that are being set up...I think there's something there and I encourage that! A lot!" Okay? Here's what I...this is the problem which made me jump to conclusions

2:36:45 You made it sound like some new trinket that's coming around that everyone is gonna flock to, like crazy. Like Facebook." It might? I don't see it! Let's... well give it a second all I see is a huge uptick of people talking about it. It could be nothing you're right but I thought it was interesting and I thought it was interesting because it has no central authority unlike what you just said If you go to their website It indicates there's a central authority for getting an account. There is not I didn't go any deeper than that, I just looked at the way it was structured and I saw all these different servers floating around all these different guys are running in with three or four people 300 people 500 people lot of people know people on these different little sub sections yeah And they all talk to each other they do that on IRC They have all these different servers and people that as servers talk to each other you can get in a room and you could create

2:37:38 a name and you can change your name, or you can do whatever you want. No that part is... so the room concept does not exist in this case there's not a room concept it's still all open right? So you tweet and you can do all the typical things look I'm gonna say Do i get when I'm in there just as your you've already played with it like haven't didn't get into account when you're in a room and you tweet something out or whatever you want to call it mastodon it out actually they call it toot When you toot something out, which is a cocaine term. It's not a cocaine term it's fart, you toot. Yeah, you toot. That's the cocaine term So if you toot some cocaine out into the public everybody sees it or who sees it? The people who are on your server

2:38:28 They have to be on your server. No, no if your server is connected to the federation which means you're connected and there's bots that connect and do all kinds of things then it doesn't matter I can... It's like email! I can send you an email on my server by owncurry.com server it will eventually wind up at your server That's the federated part that I like so much And this was better than email how? Oh god alright fine Look I'm not gonna argue with you You haven't seen it I will make a point of seeing it and argue with you later. Or, I'll fall in love with it! You may... You may. It's possible. Alright. Umm..I have a funny clip from Malibu. Malibu? Yes, Malibu. Now, Malibu had a vote and the vote was in favor 2 to 1. There are only 3 people on the city council to make Malibu a sanctuary city

CHAPTER 43 / 47 Discussion

Malibu Sanctuary City Sign Prank

A professional-looking sign appeared on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu declaring it an "Official Sanctuary City" for "cheap nannies and gardeners." While the city council did vote to become a sanctuary city, officials confirmed the sign was a prank. The hosts admire the craftsmanship of the sign and suggest a similar prank for Austin, Texas.

malibu· sanctuary city· prank· sign· los angeles· boyle heights

2:39:32 Yes. And it's only 25 miles from Los Angeles, which brings us to the question I'll ask if you haven't asked it Okay should I play the clip and then you can ask it? Yeah. Coast Highway in Malibu drawing a whole lot of attention take a look here It reads official sanctuary city cheap nannies and gardeners make Malibu great Boyle Heights not so much Now the city officials say the sign is a prank. It was not put up by the city, the city manager says it will be taken down I love that Okay i didn't know this whole story I thought...I wondered about it I thought it was a prank Uh because I saw it Well no hold on they actually did become a sanctuary city Oh yeah but its just the sign Yeah of course thats bull crap

2:40:19 But it's like, it looks good though. It looks very official. No the sign looks dynamite. It was obviously done by one of these signs we have in one of these around here We could do that but we have one of these companies that makes a... Oh! We should do that for Austin. Austin is ground zero. We should do that here You want me I guess your prices They make the real signs, you know, the Do Not Cross. All these signs and there's a place right down here like it's not more than 10 blocks from my house that makes these signs. They make stop sign if you want to stop sign or go in there and buy stock signs but you can have this custom signs made and whoever did that sign is good! That was beautiful piece of work. Yeah it was good I guess it probably cost couple hundred bucks. Worth it

Tomi Lahren, Wrongful Termination Lawsuit

Conservative commentator Tomi Lahren has filed a wrongful termination lawsuit against Glenn Beck and The Blaze. Lahren was reportedly fired after expressing pro-choice views during an appearance on The View. The hosts argue that suing a former employer in show business is a "big mistake" that will likely prevent her from finding future work in the industry.

tomi lahren· glenn beck· the blaze· the view· pro-choice· lawsuit

2:41:08 to prank. Fantastic, man. Fantastic. Oh and Tommy Lahren she's doing something very bad dumb dumb dumb okay she got so she got put on non active first might as well yeah give it a good story at Tommy Lahrens the blonde millennial girl who was on that The Blaze and very conservative loud I like her fast talker I like her sharp very smart I like watching her I think she has some pretty In kind of a way that you know too blonde and too white teeth, but okay mm-hmm And she went on The View and she said, well you know I'm really not...I'm really kind of pro-choice. I'm not really against abortion in that way and I could be conservative and still have different views Well of course not according to Glenn Beck and he put her on nonactive and now it comes out and then he fired her. I think it was terminated That's still up in the air Well what has come out now is that she has filed a lawsuit for wrongful termination Yeah That's according to Boston News

2:42:13 Yeah, we know what that means. It could be bullcrap but... Well no it also means if it's not bull crap she is never going to work again That's my point big mistake Tommy drop the lawsuit right away you never work in show business if you sue someone over getting fired yeah or any of those anything thats even just outside the realm of what goes on in a business its just not a good idea at all The business is you get fired. Yeah, it happens move on a lot move on But the real jip is when you don't get your money and you can sue over that yeah? but You know that's because someone is a criminal but you don't get you don't sue over stuff like that very dumb Yeah I agree 100% That was mistake. I just have one last thing And I don't know if it'll work as I saw the video. I heard the audio first I thought it was funny then they saw us the video. I thought it was funny

John McCain, Microphone Gaffe Video

A video of Senator John McCain struggling with a lapel microphone during a speech about Neil Gorsuch is described. McCain repeatedly tried to place the "crayon-sized" mic into a hole on the lectern, only for it to fall out each time. The hosts mock the senator's clumsiness, calling it a "mic drop McCain style."

john mccain· neil gorsuch· microphone· gaffe· senate· video

2:43:06 This is John McCain speaking and you know they have when they do these talks That he was at the lectern in this case. They have that odd microphone that they they pass amongst each other It's it's like a little like the size of a crayon with a clip And then so they clip that crayon mic with a wire onto their lapel or whatever while they're talking, or some hold it. You've seen this? Oh yeah So McCain is behind Electron and Electron has I think it's cup holders Either that are holder for flagpoles God knows what those two holes are for But McCain puts the mic

2:43:42 into one of those holes and it just keeps on falling out. And I don't know, the sound everything just kind of made me chuckle Let's see what it does for you. I'm present... I rise today to support the nomination He's putting a base slip trying to put it back in the hole there he's doing it on purpose no No, when you see it is not And confirming judge Neil M Gorsuch to the United States Supreme Court I do so with mixed emotions because I believe that the action taken in order to...

Jeff Bezos, Blue Origin Space Tourism

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos announced plans to sell $1 billion in stock annually to fund his Blue Origin rocket venture. The company aims to launch paying passengers on 11-minute space flights starting next year. The hosts are highly skeptical of the business model, predicting that the first accident will end the industry due to massive liability issues.

2:44:33 I've got one last or I can do, I can stretch either one. Well it's time to go! Okay well then we'll do this last one okay? This is the gist of story that we have to remember that when some of our great business leaders get too much money they always go nuts and many of them get involved with you know jet leasing or the real screwballs get involved in a rocketry space space Wait, no here's its million-dollar cars then it's space. Yeah, you got to have your your your Asian house with all your

2:45:11 Eastern secrets that you've learned from your many trips to the Far East and your katana sword and your kimono. You gotta have one of those, yeah And you gotta have your airplane...and you gotta have like a little airplane It's cool like Harrison Ford has a Husky. And a big yacht if you feel like it Gotta have a yacht Okay so we're there Here's Bezos. Okay. Turning to rocket science now, it is increasingly getting a boost from private companies in the United States. Private firms are eyeing space exploration for their investment. Tech billionaires such as Amazon's Jeff Bezos have already poured money into the sector. Take a look!

2:45:49 One small step for man a giant leap for mankind Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has announced plans to sell 1 billion dollars worth of the retail giant shares every year To fund his blue origin rocket venture with the goal of launching paying passengers on 11-minute space rides starting next year I want Blue Origin to be a thriving enterprise and to help open the gateway to this new generation Of people who will have this dynamic like a surfer in space That's what we're going to do and that can only be done if it is sustaining. But it's a long road to get there, and I'm happy to invest in it." But tourism isn't the only sector of the space race with growth potential. The market for global satellite services is vast encompassing, for starters imaging satellites and commercial communications like satellite TV radio and broadband

2:46:41 According to the 2016 State of the Satellite Industry Report, the global satellite industry grew 3% in 2015. That's slightly above worldwide economic growth and U.S. growth. 3%! Oh my god, jump on that sucker. Well the way I see it just another guy who's going out to get some of that government money. No this is Bezos no I don't think he's doing the same scam that Musk is smart money here Bezos was just doing this as a lark He's gonna put $1 billion dollars a year in and the idea is to send 11 people up on or no but group of people for an eleven minute joyride This isn amusement park ride that he invented

2:47:21 that he's gonna drop all this money into for some people with too much money to get in this stupid thing and go, oh look I'm in outer space and here I come. To me it's like the first one of these things that blows up and then everybody in there... Oh it'll be glorious! It's going to be a benefit to mankind. It will be glorious. Where is Richard Branson's space plane? He's still working on it too. Please. It's not gonna happen! No, this is not doable. None of this is going to happen. There will be no space for it. The liability issues are off the scale For one thing you're only appealing to people that are billionaires that can afford to get into stupid rocket and they've got teams of lawyers They get killed? You're doomed. You're done
