An IT service provider in Los Angeles reports that Microsoft Azure experienced significant issues several hours before the official CrowdStrike file was delivered. Speculation arises that Azure may have been under attack, prompting a rushed fix from CrowdStrike. Additionally, reports of the CrowdStrike Chief Security Officer selling 15,000 shares days before the event are noted as suspicious.

Senator Susan Collins cites a DIA assessment claiming Snowden stole 1.7 million documents, which she asserts would create a "three-mile high stack" if printed. John C. Dvorak performs a calculation to debunk the physical scale of this claim, estimating it would actually represent 48 million pages. The hosts argue the government is fabricating these numbers to frame Snowden's actions as a threat to military safety rather than a privacy issue.

New information from anonymous sources suggests the mysterious missile launch off the coast of Los Angeles was an unplanned US military event, possibly a fire control error during a submarine drill. The hosts also discuss a planned global bank run scheduled for December 7th, organized by former soccer player Eric Cantona. They link the timing of the bank run to the "20-day" death prediction mentioned earlier in the show.

The federal government's Recovery.gov website transitioned from the open-source Drupal platform to Microsoft SharePoint, costing millions in licensing and implementation. Officials claimed the switch was necessary to improve data visualization and tracking of stimulus funds. Critics argue that Drupal was capable of the same tasks and that the move was an unnecessary payout to Microsoft.

The federal government awarded an $18 million contract to a company called Smartronics to redesign and maintain the Recovery.gov website. Critics point out that the high cost for a SharePoint-based site is excessive, suggesting that the project could have been completed for a fraction of the price using platforms like Squarespace or WordPress.
