Starting point is 00:00:00 And now you change it! Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak. It's Thursday, November 16, 2023. This is your award-winning Gilmore Nation media assassination episode 1608. This is no agenda. Tracking militant swifties and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA Region No. 6. In the morning, everybody.
Starting point is 00:00:22 I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley, where the protesters have shut down the San Francisco Bay Bridge. I'm John C. DeBork. It's Crackpot and Buzzkill. In the morning. Yeah, you got a front seat view then of the protesters shutting down the bridge. Oh, and all the networks are covering it. And Channel, I have to say, KTVU, kudos to them.
Starting point is 00:00:44 They have the best covers they got a a woman on the bridge with the where they're arresting all the protesters and she's there with their uh camera crew and she keeps then they have this they're cordoned off and she keeps breaking through the cordon to ask people what they think and what i think what are they protesting oh they're just protesting is our support of israel oh oh well beautiful beautiful no let me i have to describe these people yes please let me guess go ahead i i can already guess that they're pretty much the same as the Black Lives Matter people, LGBTQ, queers for Palestine, except they have kiffies on. They have the scarves. A few of them do have the scarves, but half of them are masked up, which makes it even funnier.
Starting point is 00:01:39 I'm sorry. So here they are on the bridge, the windy bridge, and it's probably the most ventilated place in the world. And there they are masked up. And I would say it's about at least half of the trans queers for Palestine people. And there's about a third black. And there's some other ethnics in there, but they're masked up. Now, here's the question, because I've been tracking this. At this moment, as of this past week, every single protest, every single one,
Starting point is 00:02:10 is organized by a political party. Every single one, and really only one political party, but that'll be obvious. Are there any professional signs in the group? Yeah, all the signs are professional, but most of it's just a big banner that they were using and they busted them up pretty quickly. But unfortunately, what they've done is they they drove a bunch of, I don't know, maybe 50 cars under the bridge, blocked all the lanes. And then in their wise, futuristic vision of the world, they threw their car keys into the water.
Starting point is 00:02:42 Oh, goodness gracious. No way. Their own way, their own car keys into the water. Oh, goodness gracious. No way. Their own car keys? Yeah. So their cars are now stuck on the bridge and they can't move. Well, no, they're pulling them off one by one, and they've got most of them off now. This started, I think, at 8 in the morning.
Starting point is 00:02:57 It's still blocked. The bridge is still closed. And it's actually quite humorous. If you're not on the bridge. If you don't have to get into into work um well then then let me jump into this for a second uh i've been doing a bit of research looking at the political at the signs there was a lot going on in dc and when you're protesting in washington dc it's always politically motivated but it was i mean it was there was just so much bizarre stuff it kind of like makes your you know your brain just fries over and over again with which people are saying what i mean we had um two groups of jews the pro and anti-zionists uh yelling at each other
Starting point is 00:03:48 and so it was jews versus jews but you had the hasidic jews um you know the ones with the curly cues and the and the strings and and the hats and they're all anti-israel which is like whoa i didn't expect that i mean just just just listen a little bit to the language that they're using against each other. Literally with the cops in the middle. You're a moron! F*** you! F*** you! F*** you!
Starting point is 00:04:15 How do you sleep? How do you sleep at night? Go, go, go, go! Go, go, go, go! F*** you! F*** you! I don't want! I don't want! I don't want! These are the Hasidic dudes with their megaphone over moduli. They need a little lesson in protesting.
Starting point is 00:04:38 You know, the Hasidic Jews who are welcomed into Israel being Jewish. Not anymore. They have settled there. Nobody's ever liked them, but they've settled there and refused to do IDF service and refused to do this and refused to do that. And they've always been outliers in the country itself. I really are a fringe group that is I don't know how they I'm Israeli Jews, normal ones, are beside themselves with these people. Well, let's go back to the, this was in front of the Capitol. There was the Jews for Ceasefire, also known as Rabbis for Ceasefire.
Starting point is 00:05:33 Interestingly, now every single one of these videos always has a shot of a professional sign, which also has the URL of who has organized this particular demonstration. This was a peaceful one. This is rabbis for ceasefire. And all the rabbis are female rabbis. Our demands are a ceasefire now, de-escalation now, and the full negotiated release of all hostages now. Prime Minister Netanyahu only looks to Torah, it feels like, to justify violence and to justify his own racist and blatantly sadistic intentions. As a rabbi, it's very upsetting to me. If they're watching, I want them to know that I and many other people care about you. You are important.
Starting point is 00:06:15 Your lives matter. And we have not forgotten you. Every life is precious and every death is a tragedy, Israeli and Palestinian. precious and every death is a tragedy israeli and palestinian so that must be a controversial group i would say to um have female rabbis and they all have those cute little mini hats on you know what i mean it's like it's a it's like with an elastic band it's a very teeny little mini hat i know it's probably not a hat but it looks like it so they hold up a sign and that comes by on this report and it's um the answer coalition is it no no no it's like a little little top hat a little hat a little top i know what you mean
Starting point is 00:06:51 yeah it looks like a little bitty mini hat it's exactly what it is i'm sure i'm sure this is me hat i'm sure i will be corrected about the mini hat assertion so the sign says that this is uh rabbis for ceasefire jews for ceasefire by the ANSWER Coalition. ANSWER Coalition. ANSWER is the World's Workers Party. Well, so I go in. ANSWER Coalition founded just three days after September 11th, 2001 attacks. ANSWER, which is an acronym for Act Now to Stop War and End Racism, initiated the massive U.S. anti-war movement opposing the U.S. invasion of Iraq
Starting point is 00:07:26 in the months prior to March 19, 2003. But Answer Coalition is not its own 501c3. If you donate to them, in fact, you are donating to the Progress Unity Fund, which you should know because the Progress Unity Fund, its headquarters is in San Francisco. It is the goal of the Progress Unity Fund to promote unity through diversity of peoples, respect for their histories, cultures, and experiences. With this respect, a sense of solidarity and community can be fostered between peoples. And this is run by Susan Meisenberg, M-U-Y-S-E-N-B-E-R-G, who writes many articles for Liberation News. Just a couple of headlines.
Starting point is 00:08:21 Santa Clara Hyatt Regency workers fight to unionize. Janitors take on high-tech firms. ACLU charges San Jose company with aiding and abetting torture. So she's pretty politically involved. In fact, she is the head honcho of the Peace and Freedom Party.
Starting point is 00:08:38 And if you go to peaceandfreedom.us, right there on the homepage, a picture of Carl, Carl Marx, and the peace and freedom party is committed to socialism democracy ecology feminism and racial equality we represent the working class those without capital in a capitalist society this is a political organization and all they want just like every other socialist organization nay marxist organization all they want, just like every other socialist organization, nay Marxist organization, all they want is for you to vote out anyone who's not a socialist. And I think most people who are jumping into this don't even realize how they're being abused for political means by the socialists and Marxists of the world. In the United Kingdom, here's socialistworkers.org.
Starting point is 00:09:27 They've given a green light to an extremist Israeli government to commit genocide in Gaza and extend their cruel policies in the West Bank. Cease fire now! Cease fire now! We're humans, we're all the same, but the fact that some people are considered, you know, not on the same level as other people, what kind of world are we going towards, man? I don't want to be known for that, that's why I'm here today. Every single MP in this country who doesn't vote for a cease fire
Starting point is 00:10:01 needs to be regarded as completely unacceptable from now on. These are people that we need to organise against to make sure that they don't hold these kind of offices again. They are going to be on the wrong side of history and we will make sure that their children or grandchildren that they have in the future will know what their grandparents did, that they were part of something that was horrendous. We haven't been doing anything, so only standing here to demand a ceasefire is the least that we can do, and hopefully
Starting point is 00:10:34 they can hear our voices and do something about it. I can't wait to see what our MPs say then about what they did for Palestine, if they protested for Palestine, and what they did when Palestine was under apartheid. So, people's emotions are being played upon. It is being done by a political party. And the European Parliament is, of course, not immune to this. We have our favorite Irish socialist, Claire Daly, and that Wallace fellow with the wild gray hair they they took a page out of the best playbook let's throw some children in there we have some palestinians living in belgium who have lost incredible numbers of
Starting point is 00:11:19 their families back home in palestine and we're going to listen to their words today. I have a question for the EU. How many Palestinians need to die for the EU to call for a ceasefire? Until a few days ago, I had lost 52 family members. Every day, the number grows, and now it's already at least 55. Every day the tuber grows and now it's already at least 55. Yesterday, the Israeli occupation forces completed a massacre in Jabalia camp near my family's house and I can't know anything about them. I came today and I don't know anything about them.
Starting point is 00:11:59 I fall asleep thinking about those images. There is no food, there is no water. thinking about those images. There's no food, there's no water. My mom said to me we wish to die because she can't see my brothers hungry and she can't make anything for them. You must stop the war against Gaza. It's enough with killing children, enough with killing innocent children. It really is such a difficult moment that we have people here who have to expose their personal grief to share the memories
Starting point is 00:12:32 of their loved ones who are no more. You all know what it's like to lose one family member maybe in a natural death but to have your entire family wiped out in a genocidal assault while the civilised world stands by in silence. There you go.
Starting point is 00:12:48 Way to use some children. Get some nine-year-olds on that stage. You know what? Let's go back to the UK. Let's have the Sun, who apparently now do video reports, let's have them up it up a little bit. But let's make this against the Hamas guys. We got to counterbalance this.
Starting point is 00:13:05 Bring in the incubators. Good morning from Jerusalem. This is day 38 of Israel's war with Hamas. On a morning where there are serious concerns for 36 newborn babies born inside the Al-Shifa hospital in Gaza City. The Al-Shifa is Gaza's largest hospital, but at the moment it is not functioning because it has no power. Without power, it cannot operate the generators. The generators, therefore, cannot operate the incubators, which are providing life-saving oxygen to these very, very small babies. The Israeli Defense Force have described the situation as dire. They agreed, having spoken to the hospital,
Starting point is 00:13:46 that they would leave 300 liters of fuel at an agreed drop-off point. But in a devastating twist, Hamas have blocked doctors from the hospital from collecting that fuel so that they can then start providing the electricity, the energy that they so desperately need to keep these babies alive. For the time being, they are being swaddled in a cardiac room, but time is of the essence, and it is certainly running out. An excellent twist on an original.
Starting point is 00:14:19 Very nice way to switcheroo there. Yeah, good rewrite. It's a great rewrite. Now, of course, we have to do something in France because we've got way too manyoo there. Yeah, good rewrite. It's a great rewrite. Now, of course, we have to do something in France because we got way too many Muslims there. You know, the French, we know that they hate the Jews. So Israel needs to go in and we need to show them our new Faces of Death video.
Starting point is 00:14:38 Yes, the 43 minutes that was shown to the world press in Israel is now being shown to politicians. Some MPs left the screening in shock, in tears, struggling to cope with the 43 minutes of footage showing killings of children and women by Hamas terrorists on October 7th. The screening was organized by the France-Israel Friendship Group in one of the rooms at the National Assembly. They say they want to show the truth and that they also wanted to prevent the spread of conspiracy theories. The president of this France-Israel friendship group is Mathieu Lefebvre, member of President Macron's Renaissance movement.
Starting point is 00:15:22 Let's take a listen to him after the screening. It was extremely difficult. I'm sorry. Our hearts are heavy after the screening. It's an attack on our humanity, all of humanity that we witnessed in that screening room. I think it was very difficult but very necessary in the face of those who would try to relativize what happened as well as the risk of forgetting what happened. MPs all shocked by what they saw but they don't all agree on how France should act and deal with this ongoing war in the Middle East. Far right and right wing MPs we spoke to said that Hamas terrorists were simply barbarians who needed to be exterminated. By all means, they fully support the way Israel is currently conducting its military operations.
Starting point is 00:16:12 On the other hand, we spoke to a far-left MP who condemned the Hamas attack, was shocked by the brutality of what they saw, but who said that at the same time, Israel cannot continue acting the way it is, killing civilians in the Gaza Strip with its bombardments. So before I take a breath, one more clip here, because the problem now is for the mainstream media, they all have to pick a side. You've got to pick your side. You've got to pick it very, very carefully. And by the way, notice how the New York Times will say, this many Israelis died, but this many Palestinians were killed. You know, it's all these very subtle things that are taking place. How do we choose
Starting point is 00:16:56 our words? Because it's about to get ugly. This is another group in D.C. i believe this to be a true grassroots organization the lady with the megaphone was speaking arabic there's a lot of aloha bars going on and listen to what they say about politicians and in particular the mainstream media And glory to the martyrs and the freedom fighters who fight for all of our freedom. And there is nothing higher nor more glorious than a martyr. And so we say glory to all the martyrs wherever they may be. And the truth is the western world is alive to the members of congress
Starting point is 00:17:49 letting them know that they will be prosecuted in criminal courts all over the world the days of just speaking have ended and we remind the mainstream media that Joseph Goebbels, the genocide propagandist, was to face trial at Nuremberg before he shat himself. every media outlet that has mobilized our generation. We will dismantle every institution of scientist violence
Starting point is 00:18:31 in the world from New York to Palestine. So yes, M5M, those kids who you encouraged, they're going to turn on you. What makes you think that was grassroots? That woman sounded like a pro. What I mean is, I don't think that was a, that was, in my mind, not necessarily, there were no professional signs.
Starting point is 00:18:53 This was the handmade genocide Job crowd, which is still the same people, but this, let me put it this way, it's not a socialist party who was running this one. It's a different party. And I think that's the scariest one. Because I don't know. I don't know who this lady was.
Starting point is 00:19:11 Absolute pro. But this was a vicious group. Out for blood. Out for blood, I'm telling you. Genocide Joe signs, handmade. I like the Genocide Joe signs. I would love to get a hold of one of those. But there's no official printed ones.
Starting point is 00:19:30 That's the thing. There's no officially printed Genocide Joe's. Yeah, I've been to a couple of these protests, and there'll be a sign maker nearby, a guy or a girl, doing these signs. They have the same hand. They're not a printed sign, I agree, but that doesn't mean it's not organized. I looked all over i could not find any political party that was connected to this particular group this this group is a little freaky um have you have you followed the tiktok psyop though no the ticket everyone's complaining about it have you heard about it the uh the
Starting point is 00:20:06 letter from uh the letter to america which one ah so the story goes like this osama bin laden oh yes i know i'm very familiar with this now it's all been taken down osama bin laden wrote a letter to the american people which was published and we're supposed to believe this in 2009 which as far as we're concerned osama bin laden died way before them it's a handwritten scribbled note and this is being you and the guardian had published it and they took it down. Oh, everybody took it down. It was also here, and it was here, and it was there, and it was there, and it was here, and it was here. And here's my favorite.
Starting point is 00:20:53 I'm looking at this one tweet about this. And it's zero. And it's taken down, taken down, taken down, taken down. But luckily, I saved a copy here, and you click on that, it's gone. This is bull crap but the the psyop on tiktok is is super viral and it all comes down i mean and if even if you read it it's just like okay whatever it does end with um continue the war if you will justice is the strongest army security is the best way of life but it slipped out of your grasp the day you made the Jews victorious in occupying our land and killing our brothers in Palestine.
Starting point is 00:21:32 The path to security is for you to lift your oppression from us. So let's just say right off the bat, you and I do not believe this is anything remotely real. Without even asking me. you're making assumptions you assume my pronoun i sure do zemzer but the this is a professionally orchestrated viral campaign and it's pretty much all blm lgbtq women and they have a script and stop me when you've heard enough. Wait, I want to say this. There's always two sides to this.
Starting point is 00:22:13 There's the people who put this together and the suckers who fell for it. Oh, so I'm just, I'm just pointing the finger at a number of people. I'm going to, I'm going to tell you that, uh, I'm going to tell you that they're all falling for it.
Starting point is 00:22:33 I mean, this is so well done. And listen to the script. When you hear the script, you'll be like, okay, this is working. This is class act, top form propaganda. This morning I read Letter to America, which is Osama bin Laden's letter to America explaining why he attacked Americans. And I am ashamed to say that I not only have never read this letter, but I didn't even know this letter existed. It's wild and everyone should read it. If you haven't read it yet, read it.
Starting point is 00:23:12 However, be forewarned that this has left me very disillusioned. And I feel the same exact way I felt when I was deconstructing Christianity. I feel a little bit just confused, like I have entered into another timeline. What is this? And yeah, so go read another timeline what is this uh-huh and yeah so go read it is this these are these are these are you know filtered good-looking young women but all you know we've seen them these are the ones who are the protest but they're no but this is just a nobody of some sort yeah right i mean it's not a brand name no No, no, no. None of these are brand name. No, these have been cast. These actors have been cast and listened to the script over and over again.
Starting point is 00:23:50 And yeah, so go read it. So I just read A Letter to America, and I will never look at life the same. I will never look at... Wow. Variation. Already. Hold on a second. Within two of these, it's so obvious that this is scripted. And so you asked me when I wanted to cut it off. existential crisis in this very moment because in the last 20 minutes my entire viewpoint on the entire life i
Starting point is 00:24:35 have believed and i have lived has changed please read that entire letter. I need everyone to stop what they're doing right now and go read. It's literally two pages. Go read A Letter to America. And please come back here and just let me know what you think. This is consistent. Come back and tell me what you think. That's what they all say. Come back and tell me what you think.
Starting point is 00:24:57 Go read it now. Stop what you're doing. Come back and tell me what you think. I feel like I'm going through like an existential crisis right now. A crisis. A lot of people are. So I just need someone else to be feeling this too. I need you to stop what you're doing and go read A Letter to America.
Starting point is 00:25:10 It is literally the craziest thing I've read in a while. And while I can't say that I'm that surprised, I am pretty shocked. So go read it and tell me what you think, because I really also need to talk to other people about this. So this is fucking insane. I just read Osama bin Laden's Letter to America, which I will be going through right here. But it's actually so mind fucking to me that terrorism has been sold as this idea to the American people. And honestly, just so many Western inhabitants within certain nations that this group of people, this random group of people just suddenly wakes up one day and just fucking hates you, just wants you dead, wants you gone. inhabitants within certain nations that this group of people this random group of people just
Starting point is 00:25:45 suddenly wakes up one day and just fucking hates you just wants you dead wants you gone and this is all because they believe that they're better than like that is the root of terrorism it doesn't make sense they just hate your fucking nation but reading this letter it becomes apparent to me that the actions of 9-11 and those acts committed against the USA and its people were all just the buildup of our government failing other nations in the majority of these situations. And this letter was insanely eye-opening. I really urge everybody to Google and read it. Okay, okay, you can stop now. Every single one.
Starting point is 00:26:18 By the way, a couple of things. This overnight sensation of the letter itself is, of course, a joke. Of course. But is there any remembrance of these terrorists itself is of course a joke of course but but is there any membranes of these terrorists going back in time a little bit it makes it sound like it just started yesterday do does anyone remember from the 60s the jackal or the locker b shot shoot down of the pan-american world airlines jumbo jet that put the company out of business or any of the things that took place in this in the 50s
Starting point is 00:26:45 60s 70s or in the series of of airline hijacks that made them drive the planes to cuba does anybody remember any of that no no no this all started last night yes yes it's insane i'm living through an existential crisis right now this is very slick this is very slick this is well done and they're all gonna fall for it and and good luck politicians good luck to you well here's this a couple things come to mind first of all i want to go back to the earlier clips you play before you got to this tangent which was about the ceasefire complaints and the protests. Where is the asking for the ceasefire in the Ukraine war?
Starting point is 00:27:32 What's wrong with you? I'm just asking. Where's the protests about the Ukraine war? Nothing. How about the Houthis and the Houthis? How about Yemen? That's the deal. It is Jew hate. Zelensky has literally gotten rid of the deal. Well, because it is Jew hate. Zelensky
Starting point is 00:27:46 has literally gotten rid of the Jews. Yeah. And he's supposedly Jewish. With the Azov Brigade. Yeah, of course. So just how insane this has gotten. And this is the word of the day. It's insane, man!
Starting point is 00:28:02 That's what somebody wrote in telling us to look for it. I haven't heard it. Well, you just heard it from me. So you know that somehow I got on the San Francisco grassroots campaign mailing list for Robert Kennedy Jr. Oh, good. And, you know, so I'm getting stuff all the time.
Starting point is 00:28:21 And it's like, you know, hey, we're going to have a Zoom call. Is the frequency too high? No, it's about one a week. a week that's not bad no no not bad at all and you know i've never responded but at one point they're even saying hey curry and this other person calling out a couple people on the list join us you know we haven't heard from you i'm like i'm being quiet over here so now i get an email email from the local grassroots Kennedy campaign. And it's in caps. Local? Yeah, the one, the same one, San Francisco.
Starting point is 00:28:52 No, just the one in San Francisco. No, no, no, the same one. I am not absurd. He is calling us absurd if we know the other story. After spending $1,000 of my own money and countless hours on this campaign. The truth I heard about six months ago has come out in an ugly way. I have known for 30 years about the conditions of Palestine. It's a created state that made us and Britain that force vaccinated their population for big pharma.
Starting point is 00:29:21 I will actively work against Mr. Kennedy and no longer support him. And it has a link. I'm sorry, but let me, now I misinterpreted what you just said. I thought this letter came from the Kennedy campaign. This woman has turned. But, oh, so the Kennedy, okay. She has turned. So the Kennedy campaign woman that was running, was the Kennedy campaign, there was a person in charge, maybe or maybe not affiliated with Kennedy. And out of the blue, after she's got her mailing list built up, she turned on Kennedy. And it's because of his appearance on the Cuomo Kids show. And she links to the video, which I shall play a clip of,
Starting point is 00:30:07 so you can hear what outraged her so much. I mean, I think that there's just a tsunami of misinformation and kind of moral bankruptcy that we're seeing on the college campuses about this issue. And, you know, the idea that Israel is an apartheid state because it's a Jewish state. Israel is the only nation in the region that does not have an official religion. All the other surrounding nations are Muslim. There's 40 nations in the world, 42 that have official religions. There is not an Israel. Israel is a free nation.
Starting point is 00:30:45 It's a democracy. Palestinians is not in Israel. Israel is a free nation. It's a democracy. Palestinians in Israel can vote. They can hold political office. Even the prime minister and the president of Israel, if they win that vote, they hold positions on the judiciary. Every court, including the Supreme Court, they serve in the Knesset. A couple of years ago, a Palestinian judge, an Arab judge, convicted the prime minister of Israel for corruption. Israel has freedom for in Gaza. You get the death penalty for selling land to a Jew. There are no Jews in Gaza. Oh, you know, you look at this double standard that is being now applied to Israel's behavior compared to the behavior of all the countries around it. There's no other country that is a democracy in the region.
Starting point is 00:31:39 There's no other. If you're a Palestinian and you want to criticize your government you better do it in israel because if you do it in the west bank if you do it in gaza if you do it in jordan if you do it in syria if you do it in lebanon you're going to either have your throat slit or you're going to go to jail and be tortured oh you know the freedom that people have calling Israel an apartheid state is such an absurd twist and perverted twist. And ultimately, you know, if you're applying a double standard, it reflects a bias. And you'd have to call that bias anti-Semitism. This is such an upheaval for the political landscape.
Starting point is 00:32:27 It's phenomenal what's happening. People are... Go ahead. Up, up, up. A total up, but people are running away. And I'm going to say that what you're witnessing with that, I'm glad you got on that emailing list. Yes.
Starting point is 00:32:39 That is part of the up. The part of the up is being outraged that it's Kennedy being so damn reasonable. It's part of the op the part of the op is being outraged that's kennedy being so damn reasonable it's part of an op and you know what i love on twitter right now it's funny because we were just talking about candace owens about her being really too smart for this dumb organization well now she and ben shapiro have successfully made the Middle East conflict about themselves. This is fantastic. Oh, I better go on Tucker and talk about me.
Starting point is 00:33:10 Me, me, me, me, me. You know, quoting Bible scripture at each other on X. I was very, that, I watched that, of course. Of course. And I didn't get any clips from it because, for one thing, Candace is, I don't know how much coffee she's drinking for a pregnant woman.
Starting point is 00:33:26 But her speed talking is up there with Shapiro's now. Well, it's a milieu. It's a milieu. And so she's going on about one thing or another. Tucker can get a word in as well. But Roger Roundy, one of our great artists of the united states who's in the social he's going on about how what a great interview this is it's not even an interview no it's just it's letting someone go off yeah about how great and i think that this feud is bullcrap
Starting point is 00:33:57 if it's not one of those phony baloney feuds show business feuds you know where people get into a fake feud totally a show business feud, and she's been picking fights with Megyn Kelly, and it's about them. This is narcissism. Narcissism. You know, I'm a little sick of the usual suspects, and that
Starting point is 00:34:18 includes Tucker, it includes her, it now includes Jordan Peterson, it includes Crowder, it includes tim pool yeah and i would have to rogan is i don't i think he's an unwitting member of this of this clique uh but they're all in and they all promote each other it's like a little uh blow job log rolling thing i hadn't heard about a log roll in a long time but a blow job log roll that is a new one we should make that a well we know we'll make that in the media it's generally referred to as a blow job this is just a term it's nothing to do with the the sexual act but it's called of
Starting point is 00:35:01 course when you write up somebody in a very you know oh this guy's the best yeah, but it's called a blowjob. Of course not. When you write up somebody in a very, you know, oh, this guy's the best. Yeah. Well, there's one more we can add to the mix of choosing sides to save his hides. Jimmy Dore. Jimmy Dore. Now, he's in a, is he Jewish? I think he's probably Jewish, isn't he? Maybe he's not Jewish.
Starting point is 00:35:21 I look him up. Well, he has the two live Jew crew. He has his Jewish, no, he's probably, he has the two live Jew crew. He has his Jewish friends. So he does a very interesting thing. And it caught my attention because I really didn't know much about the Grand Mufti during the Second World War, who was the Grand Mufti of Palestine. Yeah, he was the guy who was calling the shots at the time. Well, so he pulls out a clip from Netanyahu from eight years ago. Doesn't really
Starting point is 00:35:51 say it was really, really old. In fact, Netanyahu sounds the same. And here's how he rolled it out on his show and discussed it with his two live Jew crew. Here's the video I was talking about. Listen to what Benjamin Netanyahu had to say about Hitler and the Arabs and the Jews. Hitler didn't want to exterminate the Jews at the time. He said Hitler didn't want to exterminate the Jews at the time. Yeah, blame it on the Arabs.
Starting point is 00:36:18 Oh, wow. Wow. Wow. Can I play it again? Because this is something. Hitler didn't want to exterminate the Jews at the time. You wanted to expel the Jews. And Haj Amin al-Husseini went to him and said, if you expel them, they'll all come here. So what should I do with them? He said, burn them. So let me bring in my two live Jew crew that i have on today uh what do you have to say that
Starting point is 00:36:46 is that that's kind of a head snapper right it takes a lot to shock me at this point i i'm i'm actually stumped uh because yes netanyahu is a fascist but if there is a third rail or a presumed third rail in jewish politics it would be in any way to soften the rough edges of adolf freaking hitler so i go first of all i've never really learned much about the grand the grand mufti yes first of all uh jimmy door is a catholic yes yes the troll room told me that yes and the grand mufti was the grand Mufti of Jerusalem, not Palestine. Now, so I go back. I right away find a report from eight years ago. I-24 is the station.
Starting point is 00:37:35 And here's a little deeper analysis of what Netanyahu said and what he then retracted. And more about this Haj Amin al-Husseini. Israel's prime minister, like we said, created a firestorm yesterday by suggesting that former Jerusalem Mufti Hajj Amin al-Husseini and not Hitler was responsible for the murder of 6 million Jews during the Holocaust. Netanyahu has since backtracked, saying that he did not absolve the Nazi regime of its crimes. I24 News correspondent Ayman Siksik has the story. Bibi absolves Hitler for the Holocaust.
Starting point is 00:38:11 So reads the title of the lead story on the Daily Beast today, following the Israeli Prime Minister's controversial comment. Hitler didn't want to exterminate the Jews at the time. He wanted to expel the Jews. Netanyahu said it was the former Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin al-Husseini, who encouraged the Nazi dictator to kill Europe's Jews. And Haj Amin al-Husseini went to Hitler and said,
Starting point is 00:38:36 if you expel them, they'll all come here. So what should I do with them? He asked. He said, burn them. Reactions were quick to come in from all parties involved. Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said that Netanyahu's comments exonerate Hitler while blaming the Mufti for genocide and accused the Israeli leader of fabricating history. And the German government also denounced Netanyahu's statement
Starting point is 00:39:02 assuming full responsibility for the Jewish Holocaust. But did the Israeli Prime Minister get his facts wrong? Not quite. In November 1941, the Mufti met with Adolf Hitler in Germany. Hitler told al-Husseini that the Nazi regime supported the Palestinian cause and rejected the idea of a Jewish national home. Whether al-Husseini directly asked for the extermination of Europe's Jews is unknown. But just four years later, in 1945, Yugoslavia sought to indict the Mufti as a war criminal for his role in recruiting
Starting point is 00:39:39 20,000 Muslim volunteers for the SS, who participated in the killing of Jews in Croatia and Hungary. But the Mufti fled to Cairo and later to Beirut and passed away in 1974. So this Graham Mufti wasn't without fault. I think he did verbatim say he had his support for the final solution. But this was all fleshed out eight years ago and this was a this was a world renowned event that took place and it's kind of crappy that jimmy dore feels he has to be has to you know do this based upon i guess his audience
Starting point is 00:40:20 look our audience is running away because we won't take a side we're not we don't like war audience look our audience is running away because we won't take a side we're not we don't like war here's here's the latest the latest email we do the news deconstruction here's dr john allen i'm glad i never contributed to your podcast after you're like a douchebag from the get-go self-admitted and now he quits i'm glad I never contributed to your podcast after your lack of outrage over Zio terrorism. Keep begging from those producer morons for your donations. I know that you think people are taking sides, but it is time. It has always been Zionists versus humans. Dr. John Allen.
Starting point is 00:41:02 What? Zionists versus humans? That's right. Yes, that's right. That's right. Is that what he put? Yeah. Zionists versus humans. Dr. John Allen. What? Zionists versus humans? That's right. Yes, that's right. That's right. Is that what he put? Zionists versus humans? Zionists versus humans. It's always been Zionists versus humans. Even during the Ottoman Empire. It's always been Zionists versus
Starting point is 00:41:17 humans. It's politics. It's evil. No, it's very corrupting. Yes, and everybody... It's really a shame somebody has to get themselves Politics, it's evil. No, it's very corrupting. Yes, and everybody... It's really a shame somebody has to get themselves, as you like to put it, and I think it's a great term, all spun up. Spun up, exactly. Over something that's pretty much on the other side of the globe.
Starting point is 00:41:37 It's a big globe. And meanwhile, we have people sleeping on our streets who have been told it would be great here. And then they get to the cities that said, yeah, you, we welcome you. And they're like, I'm sleeping the cold.
Starting point is 00:41:49 Get out of my, get out of my, get off my lawn. It's, we don't even know what happened to the homeless in San Francisco. Yeah. That would be cool to know because it's just, I mean,
Starting point is 00:41:59 you know, it was so fascinating to hear, um, uh, what's his face? Your mayor, your governor, mayor, governor. The governor is Newsom, the mayor. Yeah, governor. London breed. No, the governor to say, yeah, yeah, yeah, we just cleaned him up.
Starting point is 00:42:17 I know folks say, oh, they're just cleaning up this place because all those fancy leaders are coming into town. That's true because it's true it's true but it's also true for months and months and months prior to apec we've been having different conversations yeah it's true that's true what do you mean yeah we've had different conversations and it's true so we talked about whether we should just exterminate them or we hope maybe they'll just die of fentanyl overdoses on their own. That's one of the conversations. The other one was, hell, let's just bust them out of town. I think they bust them to L.A.
Starting point is 00:42:56 How about this? You're homeless. And somebody comes up and says, you know, we have to clean up the city. We have to clean up the city because we just have to clean up the city. We're offering you a bus ticket. And let me show you the weather. It's going to be stormy. Oh, it's going to be terrible.
Starting point is 00:43:16 By the way, it hasn't rained at all. It's supposed to. Oh, the whole week's going to rain, rain, rain. Global climate change. We'll send you down to where it's warmer in Los Angeles. It's beautiful. We've got programs for you. There's all kinds of things you can do.
Starting point is 00:43:30 Free pipes. Bum fights, the whole thing in L.A. And L.A. is much more hospitable than we are. And right now, you're going to have to go someplace. So you want the bus ticket or not? They probably gave them first-class airfare. I'm not even sure it was a bus ticket. Well, maybe.
Starting point is 00:43:49 But they somehow got him out of town. The bottom line is from the public intellectuals to the alternative media to political parties, this whole thing is being abused. political parties, this whole thing is being abused and with it, abusing Israelis, Palestinians, white people, brown people, children, incubator babies, abusing all of it for their own selfish means. And commuters. And commuters. The poor hapless commuter. They just want to... It's a beautiful thing. This is the thing that's being used. It was... What happened to LGBTQ genocide?
Starting point is 00:44:36 That genocide's gone. What happened to the Black Lives Matter genocide? Oh, that genocide's gone. What happened to the genocide of Ukraine? Oh, that one's gone what happened to the genocide of ukraine that one's gone it's so i mean it's so bad with um with ukraine that listen to this zelensky is begging for more ammo he's begging for ammo and then listen to what the europe the european union is now responsible for the ammo but it's very telling what they say in this short report.
Starting point is 00:45:05 Russia is already losing soldiers and equipment in Avdiivka faster and on a larger scale than in Bakhmut. Withstanding their pressure is extremely difficult. The more Russian forces are destroyed near Avdiivka, the worse the overall situation will be for the enemy, for the rest of the war. Ukrainian officials continue to press their Western allies for aid and weapons to counter Russia's aggression. The EU's defense ministers reaffirmed their support for Kyiv at a meeting in Brussels, but warned that the bloc could miss its goal of supplying Ukraine with a million artillery shells by next March. It doesn't mean that we already have one million shells ready by March.
Starting point is 00:45:51 So maybe we will not have one million by March, but it will depend on how quickly the orders come to the industry and how quickly the industry reacts. So that's the eu defense minister literally saying hey man we don't have any orders yet the defense industry needs orders you know like invoices signed payments made if you don't pay us we don't care about you zelensky because no one wants to fund it anymore they're tired of it no one wants to pony up yeah but there's still we still have this this need to get rid of spent uranium well yeah there's always something but he's he's just saying hey we
Starting point is 00:46:32 need the orders orders we need orders now orders now orders i have one ukraine report might as well play sure this is interesting because the ukraine has now claimed that they're making inroads on retaking. This is just like an eye roller. They're not doing any. What about the Donbass or any of these? No, no, no. They're going after Crimea, which is really as far as I can. Really? Which is off limits. Yeah. But let's hear it. And Ukraine officials in Kiev now say Ukrainian forces have established a critical beachhead in a bid to retake Russian-held Crimea. They report troops have crossed the Dnipro River near Kherson and gained a foothold.
Starting point is 00:47:13 From there, they could outflank Russian forces to the east. The front line is fairly fluid as of today, and we cannot discuss every single measure our defense forces are undertaking. But the fact is obvious that these measures push the enemy back. For now, we will not give more details so that our plan can start working, which would allow us to report later on great successes. Russian officials acknowledge Ukrainians have crossed the river, but insisted they're taking heavy casualties. It's getting so bad with this the lies that are just falling apart before our very eyes that ceasefire yes that the the international um what is their name the international coalition of investigative
Starting point is 00:48:01 journalists do you remember this outfit uh probably not i probably not um well they're they're supported by adesium foundation arnold ventures bay and paul foundations bertha foundation uh caf american donor fund creative europe the fred foundation the golden globe foundation the john and florence foundation the open society foundations okay there's a bunch of left national endowment for democracy national endowment for democracy they now are funding or they have always been funding this group and they're going after journalists and there there's the German Seymour Hersh. And he's just one. And they're going after him now. And they're going to go after a lot more journalists because, you know, they're not funded by National Endowment for Democracy or Open Society. A leading German journalist is facing allegations of being in the pay of the Kremlin, according to new revelations by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists. Seipel has long been regarded in Germany as an independent expert on Russia.
Starting point is 00:49:16 Nina, what more can you tell us about Hubert Seipel and the allegations he's facing? Well, Hubert Seipel is very well known here in Germany, is an influential voice, has won awards for his reporting, has been introduced to talk shows as the German journalist with the best access to Vladimir Putin, has had sit-down interviews with him, etc. But there is an investigative group of journalists called Cyprus Confidential
Starting point is 00:49:42 who are currently looking into a big batch of documents that they've got where there's evidence that Russian oligarchs are trying to take influence on influential European voices here. And they have found documents that prove that for a book that Zyper wrote about Putin, he received two payments from a company linked to Alexei Mordashov.
Starting point is 00:50:05 That's, of course, an oligarch who's very close to Putin. And since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, he's on the EU sanctions list. So Zypel got 200,000 euros and then another 400,000 euros as part of a sponsorship deal for the book. And what's very, very tricky here
Starting point is 00:50:20 is that the publisher of the book says that they had not been aware of such a deal and they have now stopped selling Zyple's book. Zyple argues there was no influence by third parties regarding the content of his book, but he's also produced films for public broadcaster ARD, and ARD also say that they were not aware of any such sponsorship deal. So Zyple has seriously undermined his own journalistic credibility.
Starting point is 00:50:46 And this is probably not the last case that we're going to be seeing because these investigative journalists are continuing digging. Yes. Okay. I have a couple of comments here. First of all, these pre-sale deals with publishers is not uncommon, but in fact,
Starting point is 00:51:03 it's how you sell a lot of books. Yeah, it's how you get on the list. It's how you get on the best-selling list. So you get, how does this book, well, we don't feel like publishing your book, or we don't see any market for it, is what the publisher will say. And then you come back with, we've already pre-sold, and you can even name or not name, usually you tell it who it is. This guy has already, he's contributed $200,000, whatever the amount is, to buy this many copies of the book. So you have pre-sales,
Starting point is 00:51:29 immediate pre-sales. That means the publisher will go ahead and publish the book because it'll pay out. Very common practice. I've seen it happen in- In America, everywhere. It happens all the time.
Starting point is 00:51:41 In fact, my favorite, just to go into a small tale. Oh, we love small tales, but it might be a long one. I'm at MIT with Hearst Corporation. You got to go on. When I was at MIT, you got to do it right. I was at MIT with the Hearst Corporation and going through the media lab, and I didn't have to, because I was with them as a fly on the wall,
Starting point is 00:52:04 I didn't have to sign any was with them as a fly on the wall I didn't have to sign any NDAs which everyone else, all journalists had to sign all these NDAs you can't talk about anything. So you were with people, you're going fast. You were with Hirsch, the Hirsch I was with Will Hirsch, he brought me
Starting point is 00:52:19 along. At MIT and you're just hanging out and you're witnessing what's going on. Yes, I'm watching going through the media lab, I got a good tour At MIT, and you're just hanging out, and you're witnessing what's going on. Yes. Okay, got it. I'm watching and going through the Media Lab. I got a good tour. And so we go up there, and at the end, Negroponte is talking about how they have done a deal with Stuart Brand to do a Media Lab book.
Starting point is 00:52:42 And you can look it up on Amazon. You'll see it, Media Lab. Boy, the future is invented or something like the name of it. Yes. So we've already bought 50,000 copies as an advance. That was how the book was sold. It was the MIT had purchased 50,000 copies of the book before the book was even in print. Russian spy.
Starting point is 00:53:02 And they were bragging about how they got the handle on this and the handle on that. It's going to be great publicity. And, of course, the purpose of the meetings were trying to gouge the cheap Hearst Corporation out of some money for the Media Lab. And the guy who was the CEO at the time, Frank Bennett, he was listening hard, but he wasn't going for any of it. And, but they were, they were pitching as hard as they could. And it was quite interesting to be there. And I was there for most of the meeting until one moment where Marvin Minsky, I believe I've told this part of the story before. Marvin Minsky walks in and sees me and he knows who I am. And he gets all upset and they roused both Hurst and myself.
Starting point is 00:53:51 We got kicked out. But it was long. I mean, it was too late. Yeah. So, but it's so interesting to see that these journalists who know how these deals work, because they're journalists, they're probably just jealous that they don't have a book deal where someone pre buys it. But, you know, it's like, oh, he's funded by someone linked to that guy and they're linked to everybody. You know, journalists.
Starting point is 00:54:18 Goodbye. And by the way, if you have a problem with somebody as a journalist, outright them, find out. Find out what they're saying is wrong and write about it. That's the way you normally do it. You don't out the guy with a bunch of innuendo and smears. What kind of an operation is that? Well, when you're funded by those big groups and you're at the cocktail parties, you know, it's very enticing like oh sure you're gonna try to do this to hirsch they're going to do it to everybody anybody
Starting point is 00:54:53 who's not on board with the message is going to get it that's just that's just that's just the new way well you know if you're a politician you're not on board then you're going to get it if you're a journalist you're not on board you're going to get it. If you're a journalist, you're not on board. You're going to get it. You know, the only thing that's left standing is podcasts. If you want to call it standing personally,
Starting point is 00:55:15 I'm sitting, I'm sitting too. I know you're standing. All that's left. All that's left. Yeah, that's going to be there. Eventually you're going to find a way to get the podcast too,
Starting point is 00:55:24 but no, I'm going to get back to San Francisco and do a couple of clips. I have a Biden China clip. Yes, this was an interesting meeting. I'm glad I've expected you to come through because it is your your front yard. Almost. You're looking out the window as we speak and you can see. And I will mention this last night. They decided to show off and need a a fireworks display specifically for this Asian group.
Starting point is 00:55:49 And knowing that the Asians have fireworks displays, I've been in Asia when I've seen them. They're dynamite. They're dynamite. Literally dynamite. Literally dynamite. I would say that this is the best fireworks display I've seen on the bay for ever. It had shells I've never seen before. And it was like, it was only 15 minutes long, but it was like 15 minutes of pure finale. It was at least six shells going off every, for every second of the 15 minutes. Nice.
Starting point is 00:56:22 for every second of the 15 minutes. Nice. Meanwhile, when they do our 4th of July fireworks, it's poof, there's one. Poof, there's another. It's pathetic by comparison. But oh, but we have some Asians in the audience. Let's, and Chinese communists.
Starting point is 00:56:43 And the streets are, by the way, lined with Chinese communist flags. Yeah, I saw american one little american flag and what is janet yellen doing meeting uh meeting the uh she she's on the time i have no idea a little twerp a little nerd little elf she's an elf i think she isn't call it no she might be a troll. She looks kind of like one. Yeah, she does. I mean, I hate to rag on someone's appearance. By the way, after the whole meeting was over, you got this. I'm going to play the end first, which is Biden yacking away.
Starting point is 00:57:16 This is Biden. And he says this in his speech, which I think is a great idea for a show title. Literally woke up dead. is a great idea for a show title. Literally Woke Up Dead. By the way, I guess I shouldn't identify where it occurred, but John, I know two people near where I live.
Starting point is 00:57:35 Their kids literally, as that strange, they woke up dead. Somebody inserted in whether the young man did or not, inserted in a drug he was taking, fentanyl. Literally woke up dead. That's that. Ladies and gentlemen, foam finger number one.
Starting point is 00:57:56 America. That's your guy right there. That's your guy. So here we go with the report. This is Biden China's SF1. Today in San Francisco, President Biden met face to face with Chinese President Xi Jinping for the first time in a year. The two leaders are announcing agreements on military communication and a crackdown on the Chinese chemicals used to make the lethal drug fentanyl. But as Nick Schifrin reports from the summit site, the goal was less about breakthroughs and more about stabilizing a troubled relationship. Today, in a handshake.
Starting point is 00:58:30 It's been a great honor. And a four-hour summit, the leaders of the world's largest economies, most advanced militaries, and most consequential competition said they wanted their relationship to be stable. wanted their relationship to be stable. It is paramount that you and I understand each other clearly, leader to leader, with no misconceptions or miscommunication. We have to ensure that competition does not veer into conflict. I'm still of the view that major country competition is not the prevailing trend of current times and cannot solve the problems facing China and the United The two sides are agreeing to what a senior U.S. official called a comprehensive set of military communications. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, with his Chinese counterpart, a job currently empty. The top U.S. Indo-Pacific military commander with his counterpart. Do you hear what he said?
Starting point is 00:59:26 Yes. Point it out. He said Lloyd Austin with his counterpart. Yes. Which is currently empty. Yes. Yes. He does not have a counterpart.
Starting point is 00:59:41 What does that mean? I'm going to be meeting with my counterpart, although there's nobody there. It's just an empty room. There's, I guess, the desk. I'll be talking to myself. I got a hand puppet. What does this mean? He's with his counterpart, and there is no counterpart.
Starting point is 00:59:58 So they're talking to a deputy, I guess. Nobody says anything about... No, no, he was talking to nobody well that that sounds about right for his position I guess the point is that they agree that we'll call each other before we send up a balloon yeah it was a big deal supposedly fentanyl and balloons that's what they discussed that was all that yeah you're right that's the you summarized the whole thing fentanyl and balloons. Here's part two. But U.S.-China divisions remain, most notably over Taiwan.
Starting point is 01:00:29 Taipei confirmed for the first time this week the U.S. was helping Taiwan train to defend the island. Beijing considers Taipei a breakaway province and has increased its military intimidation. Today, President Biden is warning China not to interfere with Taiwan's January presidential election. Beijing labels the frontrunner, William Lai, a separatist. But senior U.S. officials hope Beijing's aggression toward Taiwan could be, quote, inhibited by internal problems. Rare protests in 2021 in the offices of the real estate developer Evergrande revealed deep dissatisfaction with the Chinese economy. Today, more foreign direct investment is flowing out of the country than coming in. It's a sign international investors are concerned by Beijing's economic management,
Starting point is 01:01:12 targeting of Western firms and their employees, and rising labor costs, says lawyer John Ramig, who specializes in international business. A few years ago, everyone believed that to be competitive, you had to have a presence in China. Today, I haven't had anyone come to me, honestly, for three years asking to, could you help me make an investment in the China? That's actually a completely valid point. I mean, here is this scary Xi, the dictator, as our president called him later, basically coming here saying, hey, man, hey, man, don't pull away, bro. Let's pretend. We'll do all that Taiwan jiggy-jiggy-jaggy.
Starting point is 01:01:55 Ooh, Taiwan, okay. But he's coming hat in hand. Yes, there was a lot of people that interpreted this as hat in hand there's absolutely no reason he should have come at all no why would he and he's met with every jamoke already he already met gavin newsom he had old come on gavin he had a gavin date i mean come on this is like this is this is the big scary guy why Why didn't Biden go, hey, you dictator, and punch him right in the face? Because it's bull crap. It's bull crap.
Starting point is 01:02:31 We need China to sell us stuff, and they need our dollars. It's a system. Everybody knows this. At least they cleaned up San Francisco. Yeah. It's a plus. It's alarming francisco yeah it's a plus it's alarming actually it's a plus let's go to part three as a shorty u.s officials believe that trend has helped lead to a chinese charm offensive ahead of the summit including a recent english language article in
Starting point is 01:02:57 state-run xinhua featuring xi jinping's decade-old interest in quote friendship with america she is expected to take that message to American CEOs tonight. He will tell them China is still a good investment. Man, it's really amazing to me. All the narrative about China just falls apart. What is Xi really afraid of? Is he afraid of Putin? I mean, no, he's not afraid of his own people.
Starting point is 01:03:24 Yes, yes, that's exactly afraid of it. He's afraid of his own people. Yes. Yes. That's exactly right. There's a lot of people. This is a management nightmare. Now, the Chinese have been adept at it just almost historically. They're really talented at managing hordes of people, which makes them somewhat dangerous. But it makes them very dangerous in industrial settings because they, like Foxconn, they can manage, you know, 100,000 people on an assembly line, kind of. Or not.
Starting point is 01:03:50 No, making Apple phones. So here's the last clip in this group. Finally, Nick, we know that Xi Jinping's arrival was met with a number of protests in and around San Francisco. Do we know if the Chinese leader saw any of those? It's a good question, Amna. I don't know if he saw them personally, but Chinese diplomats took pains, according to U.S. officials, before the arrival to make sure that they asked U.S. officials exactly what Xi Jinping would see looking out of his windows going to each of these events. And as an aside, our bus actually had to
Starting point is 01:04:22 go around protests outside this summit site, which is completely locked down. There is, of course, inordinate focus in the Chinese system on the leader, on Xi Jinping, but Xi especially has consolidated control. U.S. officials believe that he really is making his own judgments. And that makes this kind of high-level diplomacy today, this kind of summit, all the more important and all the more reminiscent, frankly, of early Cold War diplomacy between the United States and the Soviet Union. He changed the subject right in the middle of that. He did, he did, and ended in a farce.
Starting point is 01:04:55 He's answering a question about, does she see anything? And he goes on about he's a dictator. All right, I have a report here from CBS, which is always fun because it's CBS morning morning you know when we get gail you know it's going to be high level um and they brought in mark esper wasn't he our defense uh secretary at one point yes he was one of the yeah and i think he's a spook yesterday just outside san francisco president biden sat down with china's xi jin Jinping for their first face-to-face meeting in a year's time.
Starting point is 01:05:27 The two leaders pledged to ease tensions between the two countries. And President Biden says they made important progress with agreements to combat the fentanyl crisis and also reestablish communication between the two countries' armed forces. That's a biggie. Joining us now is former Secretary of Defense Mark Esper, who served in the Trump administration. Mr. Secretary, thank you very much for being here. Former paratrooper, West Point grad. Oh, we're giving his honorifics there. In addition to being Secretary of Defense, you know this stuff.
Starting point is 01:05:55 I was going to say, so he knows his stuff. He knows his stuff. He knows his stuff. He knows his stuff. This is CBS having to give the guy some bona fides because they mentioned trump yeah yeah he knows his stuff yeah he was with trump but he knows he was with trump but besides that he was also this this and this and this and this and he knows his stuff good catch so don't good catch so ignore yes yeah well i'm rewinded so we can hear that forces that's a biggie joining
Starting point is 01:06:23 us now is former secretary of defense mark Esper, who served in the Trump administration. Mr. Secretary, thank you very much for being here. Former paratrooper for West Point grad. In addition to being secretary of defense, you know this stuff. I was going to say so. He knows his stuff. You know, you know, you know, you know, even though you were Trump, you know, your stuff. Even though you were Trump, you know your stuff. Takeaways from this meeting and how damaging, if you can put it in context, was this dictator comment that President Biden said off the cuff near the end of things? Well, look, I think overall, it's good that they're meeting. The world's two biggest, most powerful countries meeting is a good thing that we talk, right? One guy's a wuss and the other guy's brain dead. Wow, what a top meeting that was.
Starting point is 01:07:03 And the two agreements that they're touting coming out of it is an agreement to have the militaries talk frequently, which is important. When I was Secretary of Defense, I tried to meet with my counterpart at least every three months to talk, keep the lines of communication open, build a report, if you will, so that when times got tough, you could open up that line and talk. Hey, man, we got a balloon. You got your balloon? Hey, man, I'm just calling to check on the balloon thing. The other one is the fentanyl agreement, which is good, right? Because fentanyl is killing 100,000 Americans a year. But Xi Jinping made that same agreement to President Obama, and he made that same agreement to President Trump, right? So I think President Biden made two things,
Starting point is 01:07:41 two statements are important. One, he did truthfully, candidly say that Xi Jinping is a dictator, which he is. Right. He controls the state. But secondly, he says we're basically not going to trust them. We've got to verify what they do, because China rarely keeps a promise, keeps a commitment. Do you think that'll put a halt on the progress? Those slanty eyed liars. No, because China needs us right now more than we need them. Why? Because their economy is in the pits, right? They need U.S. investment. We don't know that.
Starting point is 01:08:11 What are you drinking? Now I heard you. We had some people send us some new stuff, but I'm finishing off the polar. Finishing off the polar? Okay. But we are Chinese. Oops, sorry. Because their economy is in the pits, right? They need U.S. investment.
Starting point is 01:08:26 They need U.S. consumer sales. No, they don't. Purchase, and so forth and so on. They have a real estate sector that's in crisis, and that represents 25% of their GDP. They've got some social unrest going on. China is not in a good state of affairs, and Xi Jinping is rightfully concerned.
Starting point is 01:08:41 I think they all got together just to say, how are we going to manage this crash that is coming? When the entire system collapses upon itself, we're going to blame you a little bit, and you can blame us a little bit, and I'll call you a dictator, you call me a douche, whatever. I don't think there was anything else they did discuss.
Starting point is 01:09:00 And he said, and by the way, I'm going to get it going now. I'm going to call you a dictator. But we heard Chinese officials reacting to the dictator comments saying it's extremely wrong and irresponsible. I don't want to say negate the goodwill that we made yesterday, but doesn't that put a little bit of tainted just a little bit? Sure, it does. That's right. But will there be a cleanup on aisle six today from the White House? President Biden has been more candid than I think most people would would prefer in his administration.
Starting point is 01:09:24 Right. He said a couple of years ago on four separate occasions that the United States would come to Taiwan's defense. And that's importantly as well. I think that is an issue that we haven't heard much about, right, is Taiwan. Why is that significant? That is clearly a flashpoint where we can see the United States and China get in some type of conflict. And importantly, Taiwan has important elections coming up in two months, in January. There's going to be a change of power and china is very is watching this very closely yeah okay it's a script it's a script and they all had hookers and blow and blew off some fireworks this was stage bullcrap it probably had a lot of hookers that's stage bullcrap uh they did bring
Starting point is 01:10:04 up trump with Esper briefly. Mr. Secretary, you seem to have survived the Trump administration. There are no mugshots of you that I've seen. Wow. Did he get it? He got out alive. He did. Mr. Secretary, you seem to have survived the Trump administration.
Starting point is 01:10:17 There are no mugshots of you that I've seen on the news. Are you concerned? Coming for Christmas. Yeah, coming for Christmas. You concerned about him possibly getting back into the White House? Absolutely. I've said on several occasions he's a threat to democracy.
Starting point is 01:10:31 I think what we've seen come out. What? He's a threat to democracy. He's a threat to democracy. From him the last few months and certainly the last couple weeks is it's going to be about retribution. It's going to be about weaponizing the institutions of our government. This is a script. script of course it is why else do you think he's on but wait a minute this is this is yet another example of trump's poor judgment in hiring
Starting point is 01:10:57 this guy's a douchebag well he's an insider he's a sp spook. Remember, he's on CIA broadcast systems in the morning. It's casual. It's cavalier. It's really, you know, he was a Trump guy. But he's the real deal. I'm a good guy. But, you know, Trump is danger to democracy. and certainly the last couple of weeks is it's going to be about retribution. It's going to be about weaponizing the institutions of our government to go after his political enemies. Unlike what's happening to him. It troubles me. It concerns me. It troubles me. It concerns me that a president might go after his political opponents. It concerns me, but let's go after him. It troubles me. It concerns me what this may mean let's, let's go after it. Troubles me. It concerns me, uh,
Starting point is 01:11:45 what this may mean for our great Republic, great Republic and our country. Mark, we appreciate you joining us. Thank you. What could it possibly mean for a great Republic? Yeah. Well,
Starting point is 01:11:54 you know, you know who else is back on the scene with the Trump hate with, uh, they're rerunning scripts all over the place. Colbert had Barbara Streisand on the show. Oh, is she going to leave the country again? I like Biden. I like Biden.
Starting point is 01:12:09 I think he's done a good job. I think he's compassionate. He's smart. He supports the right things. How do you feel about the specter of a second Trump administration? I will move. I can't live in this country if that's if he became president where would you go where would you go probably to england yeah go i like england yeah england
Starting point is 01:12:34 will welcome you with open arms how many times has she said this over the year she was going to do it with george bush if george w bush had gotten re-elected she was going to leave the country yeah no it's it's just all signs what is what isn't he well i mean you don't bring a guest on to do this but you could say well you said this before no he's not going to do that no he went straight into how about anti-semitism you know connect that to trump yeah you want to make put them put them close even though trump's daughter is a oh yeah you know what's uh what's interesting i've received a lot of different emails and correctly so um about fentanyl since that was on the on the docket uh with g to talk about fentanyl. And the main thing that people are pointing out to me is that it is a farce that you can overdose from touching fentanyl,
Starting point is 01:13:36 from handling fentanyl, from casually inhaling some fentanyl that's dusted around you. And that this is a, a you know so kind of following on with the you know how dangerous it is and it's going to you know that was all about that car that got confiscated and then sold on auction well there's a couple of things going on there was a case in uh this i have a clip here it's a florida cop female cop um they stopped somebody who i guess had fentanyl or was on fentanyl and then all of a sudden she uh ods on fentanyl but it wasn't an od on fentanyl and they brought in two doctors to say no no this this is she just had a panic attack
Starting point is 01:14:21 they revived her with narcan from the panic attack but they are very specific to point out that this whole idea of just a one whiff or one touch i'm not trying to say fentanyl is great obviously uh but we have to be realistic because we need the truth this is really a sensitive topic that no one including the medical, is trying to discount the danger our law enforcement officers face every day. I took this situation to two of the world's most renowned experts on fentanyl. These doctors literally wrote the studies about this drug and its effects. They insist, even after watching this video, it wasn't an overdose. There's just no practical way in an outdoor environment that that could happen.
Starting point is 01:15:06 Dr. Lewis Nelson of Rutgers Medical School co-published a prominent study saying passive fentanyl exposure is nearly impossible, meaning you simply can't overdose by coming in contact with it. He says a small dose wiped from his sleeve or inhaled wouldn't cause an overdose. You've seen TV where they put out a line or that you, you know, you got to have a good amount to get in your body. It's not, you're not going to get a little powder on your hand and put it in your nose. You're not going to get sick from that. Toxicology experts use the body camera video released by Tavares Police Department to support their analysis. While a medical emergency is indeed happening, they say it's not consistent with that of an overdose.
Starting point is 01:15:46 Officer Bannick spoke with Fox 35, believing the Narcan is what saved her life. Narcan only works to reverse opiate overdoses. It does not work to get you out of an anxiety attack. While both doctors say it was a good idea to use Narcan while assessing the situation, they don't believe it's what brought her back. Both doctors believe Officer Bannock was having a reaction to what happened. They just don't think it was an overdose. Because it seems so real. And I think these are all legitimate concerns. I don't think anybody's trying to pull a fast one here. I think these people really believe they're exposed because
Starting point is 01:16:21 this is what they've been told happens now the doctors hope that this can be a teaching moment for many including law enforcement about fentanyl they want people to know it's safe to passively come in contact with fentanyl and jump in to help someone who is overdosing yeah yeah now i should bring this up although i haven't done my research on it it makes nothing but sense that this is the power of suggestion yes yes and so these people have been hypnotized well it's important because we're being psyoped at this very moment the terrorists are going to you know drop fentanyl in america it's going to kill hundreds of thousands of people in cities you know it's not necessarily true so it's a it's a fear tactic that you know just doesn't have a basis in science science speaking i i don't want to change topics because
Starting point is 01:17:14 i want to go back to what you're doing but i want to play two clips which are which are kind of related to this idea of this of this power of suggestion okay Okay. And one is, the second clip is the one that really gets my attention. But this is about the loneliness. We've talked about this before. Yes, yes, the loneliness. I have thoughts about this. What's the name of your report here? These are Yale.
Starting point is 01:17:38 This has to do with the suicide in Yale. Oh, okay. Oh, groovy. I see it. Elitist Voices of America. This is NPR or PBS. Higher education is facing a student mental health crisis. That's the focus tonight of our series, Rethinking College, and our reporting on early warnings, America's youth mental health crisis. We start with Yale University, which earlier this year settled a lawsuit following the death of a student by suicide in 2021. According to the agreement, the university will now allow students more
Starting point is 01:18:17 flexibility to take lighter course loads and to keep their health care while on medical leave. Yale agreed to the policy after a group of alumni and students sued the school, arguing the policies discriminated against students with mental health issues. Willow Sylvester is a Yale graduate who was part of that lawsuit. She explained what things were like before the settlement. When I started at Yale, I had to stop seeing my therapist and I felt super isolated. Fast forward to my senior year, I was a first year counselor. I was working directly with first year students and almost every single one reported these same feelings of feeling isolated on campus.
Starting point is 01:18:58 Mental health justice at Yale was founded in the immediate aftermath of Rachel Shaw Rosenbaum's passing by suicide. She was a first-year student. The resources that she lacked and the policies that made her feel like she didn't have the help that she needed were very, very clear. She had spoken publicly about feeling this need to move down to a part-time course load. And if she could just move down to part-time courses, she would be able to get on top of her mental health, but that that was not an option at Yale. Another thing, which was also related to why Rachel wanted to go part-time is maintaining access to Yale's health insurance when you're on leave or withdrawal. If she had gone home and taken a leave for her mental health, she would lose access to her Yale health resources and also her Yale mental health resources while she was home.
Starting point is 01:19:45 Wow. And she knew that she needed those. Both of those, as a result of the settlement, are now something that students can do. So students on leave maintain access to their Yale health insurance, and students can go down to a part-time course load. We absolutely should not have had to lose a life to get these changes rolling. Mental health resources is the best name for antidepressants I've ever heard.
Starting point is 01:20:08 Mental health resources. She would lose her access to mental health resources. And therefore, she passed by suicide. Oh, my God. We're not speaking English anymore. We're not speaking English. But the part, the second clip here is the one that kind of reminds me of the-
Starting point is 01:20:28 Can I ask a question? So Yale gives students health insurance? How does this work? I don't know how. At the University of California, when you're a student, you have free, it's like socialized medicine there. Oh, yeah. So that's right. So you can get your Adderall for your test.
Starting point is 01:20:41 like socialized medicine. Oh yeah. So that's right. So you can get your Adderall for your test. You go to, uh, to, uh, cowl at hospital and you'd make an appointment.
Starting point is 01:20:50 You go see doctors and they, you know, if you have a, whatever you need, they have a dentist there too. I had a tooth filled there once. Anyway, so let's,
Starting point is 01:21:00 so I don't know what, what the deal is. Uh, so the part two is the part that interests me insofar as what we talked about. So what more can universities and colleges do to address the academic pressure, the loneliness that students are feeling? Is this a structural thing that colleges have to address? There's definitely structural points to it. So we talk about how is mental health included in everything that we're
Starting point is 01:21:25 working on in college campuses, right? So things like leave policies. If someone's really struggling, how do we make sure that when they leave, they feel comfortable asking for help, that they feel comfortable coming back on campus, that they're able to do that. That's really important. There's mental health in everything that we're doing, but it's also how do students feel comfortable talking to faculty to begin with, to know that those faculty feel comfortable even talking to those students, because I see faculty too and they don't. They haven't had training in mental health. They're not psychiatrists. And they're often the first people that come to students and they're supposed to support them through their mental health experiences as coaches, as faculty members, as administrators.
Starting point is 01:22:02 And they need the support to be able to do that, too. So how do we make it easier for faculty to talk to students, for students to feel comfortable talking to faculty, for them to notice stuff so they get seen earlier, so then they come to me and they can talk to each other earlier too. We've heard how students say they want more transparency. School administrators obviously have to abide by health privacy and confidentiality laws. There might be concerns about reputational damage to the colleges and universities. Some administrators have a concern that the more they talk about suicide, that that might in some ways encourage or might lead to more deaths by suicide. How should university and college leaders, how often should they talk about this and how should they talk about it? So there's no evidence that the more we talk about things and the more we ask about things,
Starting point is 01:22:48 the worse it is. So as a psychiatrist, we're encouraged to always ask our patients about suicide. It doesn't mean that we're going to make patients then think about it. We don't implant those ideas. In fact, we support people by asking about those things. Well, she pulled the Dvorak right there with the no evidence. That was fishy. Well, she pulled the Dvorak right there with the no evidence. That was fishy. So it goes like this. So have you ever thought about suicide?
Starting point is 01:23:13 No, but now that you mention it, it's bullcrap. This is the power of suggestion. It's a mental health experience. That's just what she said. Well, this fold, okay, this is very important. And we do have a mental health crisis in the United States. It's because of the advertisement of SSRIs, of antidepressants. I know, hey, a lot of you are on them. I'm not condemning you in any way.
Starting point is 01:23:37 But I got an interesting note from one of our producers. And that's in regards to Ozempic, Wagovi, Deathbound, and all the others. And it relates to this. We have heard many times that people who are on antidepressants, I'm just going to say SSRIs, but I think it's all under the same basic family, that these make you gain weight. same basic family that these make you gain weight and i always thought that it that these anti because you know the antidepressants supposedly also make you you lose libido which is great because then we can you know prescribe uh ed drugs even for women though you know for for women i
Starting point is 01:24:22 think it's especially they lose their libido. But the weight gain, I never really realized what it was. And one of our producers wrote in and said, you know, yes, we have an obesity epidemic, but it's not just sugar addiction. Listen to this, because this comes back to our topic food noise. I thought food noise was just people who are addicted to sugar. No, no, this comes from the psychiatric medication. Our producer writes, for the last five years, I've been taking psychiatric medication. Unfortunately, he didn't mention which one that causes weight gain as a side effect. The main point is for me, the hunger is not related to sugar. as Adam suggested.
Starting point is 01:25:09 I don't want a chocolate bar any more than I want a chicken or a bowl of rice. The best way I can describe the sensation is a sort of anxiety relating to hunger. This is the food noise. If I'm even a little hungry, I get very tense and panicky and feel a need to kill that sensation as quickly as possible. In turn, that causes some fear that I don't even want to get a little bit hungry, so I want to eat even more, so I'm not hungry in between eating. Are you with me on this? This is really messed up. As another consequence, when I do eat, I tend to overeat for that same fear.
Starting point is 01:25:48 I strongly want to kill the hunger sensation, so I better eat two pieces of toast rather than one and maybe a small bowl of cereal as well just to be safe. And at mealtime, the drive to kill the hunger sensation and avoid having it pop up in the future causes me to eat larger portions as well. As I said, it doesn't need to be anything sugary whatsoever this particular medication has worked beautifully for my severe depression and it's really changed my life for the better i don't want to stop taking it but i also don't want to add another medication to offset the food noise so i had this wrong this food noise is caused by the antidepressants which to me is a defective
Starting point is 01:26:26 product you can call that i'd say you can call that a side effect i call it a defective product but now luckily and now i'm understanding the marketing of the food noise they're marketing wagovi and ozempic to people who are already on antidepressants. That's what's going on here. That's a big market. Yes. And the problem they're having is the insurance companies don't want to jump on board yet. That's $1,000 a pop. Another producer writes in.
Starting point is 01:26:59 And he's in the field. He says it's about the rebates. Currently, employers are mostly not covering weight loss GLP-1 drugs. That's Ozempic, Wegovy, etc. But they are forced to cover the same drug for diabetes, Ozempic, by creating the separate branding. Remember, we have Monjaro rebranding as Zepbound. Now, we should have rebranded it Kilimanjaro, but that's whatever. They will start to leverage rebates to force the coverage.
Starting point is 01:27:31 For the diabetes version of the drugs, Ozempic, Monjaro, ZEPP bound, they will offer a nominal rebate to the insurance company, say just $200, for example. Because the insurers are resistant to cover the weight loss version of the drugs, they will start to leverage portfolio requirements to say if you cover Wagovi Zepbound in addition to Ozempic Manjaro will increase your rebate to $400 for both products. So this is a money game that they're playing. And now they've added another dimension. And luckily, we have the study to show, the study comes from the very pharmaceutical company that makes the drug, that this does more than just help you with your weight gain thanks to SSRIs and antidepressants. Let's get to this first one, cardiovascular disease.
Starting point is 01:28:19 What is the study showing? So two big medical headlines we're following, Robin. The first one using the drug semaglutide in a study funded by the drug maker. We've known for some time that that drug is cardioprotective, reduces the risk of cardiovascular events in people with diabetes. Take a look at what this study did. They studied people without diabetes who were known to have a diagnosis of cardiovascular disease and who were already also diagnosed with overweight or obesity and found an associated 20% reduced risk of
Starting point is 01:28:52 fatal heart attack, non-fatal heart attack, and non-fatal stroke. So those are significant findings. Now, is this just about weight loss or are there other theories involved here? There are other theories and that's what's really interesting about this drug. It's not just because you're fat and you're dying from obesity. No! There's interesting little things, little tidbits we've learned from this study
Starting point is 01:29:11 from the people who make the drug. The more we're finding possible other theories, and data has shown in lab animals that semaglutide can reduce inflammation. It's a mini-med school here. It can promote what's called plaque stability in those arteries, making the plaque less likely to break off and close off that artery. And then it almost
Starting point is 01:29:31 works like a blood thinner in lab animals in terms of reducing platelet clumping. So that, when you combine that with weight loss, significant cardio protective effects. Can really have an impact. that's great and everybody had this story everybody's on the tape yeah they all had this story everybody's a bagger here's the nbc they are the blockbuster drugs helping millions lose weight now a new study finds evidence that drugs like wagovi and ozempic may not just help people lose weight but could also help their heart health heart This post has the details. As the weight loss drug revolution explodes nationwide, new research shows the medications may not only help patients shed pounds, but also improve heart health. A recent clinical trial
Starting point is 01:30:16 shows semaglutide, the active ingredient in popular weight loss drugs, Wagovi and Ozempic, could reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes by 20%. So highly significant. Dr. Michael Linkoff is the lead. These drops that NBC did is great. So highly significant. And strokes by 20%. So highly significant.
Starting point is 01:30:36 Dr. Michael Linkoff is the lead author of the trial, which followed 17,000 obese adults 45 older, who had pre-existing cardiovascular disease but were not diabetic. Of the participants, 8% who received a placebo had a heart attack or stroke, compared to 6.5% who took Wagovi. Up until now, no one has shown in any... So that's their 20%. The difference...
Starting point is 01:31:01 Yeah, 20% is from 8 to 6. And all the rest died from the COVID shot. Took Wagovi. Now, wait, wait. There's more. There's more. I got to stop it. Okay.
Starting point is 01:31:11 How does a survey like this even come into being? This is a diabetic drug, and then it became a weight loss drug, but they've given it to just randos who have a heart attack. I have an idea, Bill. What can we do? Let's give these random this random crowd of people that have heart conditions rando fatties no it was rando fatties give them this and see what happens i mean what who's who's behind this idea why what was the thesis behind it because there's no evidence that that this drug had anything to do with heart. This is very rigged.
Starting point is 01:31:45 This is marketing. It was Novo Nordisk themselves who did the study. This is marketing. Are they taking the same drug and trying it against people that have eczema or whatever it's called, or people with flatulence? I mean, what are they testing this stuff on?
Starting point is 01:32:03 Or COVID vaccination. I mean, by the way testing this stuff on? Or COVID vaccination. I mean, by the way, this sounds like the binary solution, like, you know, you got blood clots, but maybe if you take this thing, you'll live a little longer. The clot shot won't get you. This is all so cynical. It's drug upon drug upon drug upon drug. And if it isn't the food noise, then it's to stop you from dying. Well, let's continue. Up until now, no one has shown in any group of patients with overweight and obesity that the risk of cardiovascular events could be reduced. The findings of the study, funded by Novo Nordisk, the maker of Wagovi,
Starting point is 01:32:36 come as the FDA approves a new version of diabetes drug Manjaro for weight loss called Zepbound. New research shows the active ingredient in that drug, Terzepatide, may help type 2 diabetes patients reduce inflammation, which may lower the risk of heart disease. Manjaro changed my life. 30-year-old... Listen to that. Listen to that. They just drop...
Starting point is 01:32:58 This is a psychological operation, and they just drop in non-sequitur. Manjaro saved my life. Abetes patients reduce inflammation, which may lower the risk of heart disease. Manjaro changed my life. Wow. 30-year-old Alexis Mitchell has been taking Manjaro
Starting point is 01:33:14 for just over a year now and says she's lost 125 pounds. I don't want to wait until I have a heart attack. I don't want to wait until I have a stroke. But despite the promise of these drugs, all the side effects are not fully known. This is not meant for the person who sort of wants to casually lose 5, 10 pounds, you know, before a big event. We don't actually think it's worth taking some of the risks, some of which are known, some of which are unknown.
Starting point is 01:33:40 And these drugs aren't cheap as much as thirteen hundred dollars a month most health care plans don't cover them but experts say these findings could push insurance companies to do so okay so this is really the point of of this marketing campaign and uh the agency said listen guys um i think our best shot of really getting a change here on the insurance companies is probably to go to cbs you know because cbs has gail gail knows oprah oprah you know wait watch oprah yeah so we should probably have them do the story and that will probably get some uh some earned earned marketing uh earned advertising space that will show you know that will really move the needle on the insurance companies covering
Starting point is 01:34:23 this once you get the rebates set up. So let's get Dr. LaPook from CBS to do it. Okay, good. We got the buy. I'll call the station. New research on the popular weight loss drug Wegovi could change the way doctors treat patients with heart-related problems. The study from Novo Nordisk, the drug maker behind Wagovi, found it can reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, or heart-related death by 20%. CBS News chief medical correspondent,
Starting point is 01:34:51 Dr. John LePoop, joins us now. Yo, Doc, what's up? Yo, Doc, what's up? Yo, Doc, what's up? This is an important study, okay? It's more than 17,000 people, 41 countries. I want to emphasize that these are people who were overweight or obese so bmi of 27 or above and they had some underlying heart related issue almost 70 that had a heart attack now 20 decrease in heart related issues like heart attack stroke or death from some heart related issue it's interesting how they can measure 20 didn't have a heart attack so all the rest had a heart attack seriously and maybe i'm hearing that wrong but it sounds like you know we had all these people 20% didn't have a heart attack. All the rest had a heart attack? Seriously.
Starting point is 01:35:28 Maybe I'm hearing that wrong, but it sounds like we had all these people who had heart issues and these people didn't have a heart attack. They had some underlying heart-related issue. Almost 70% had a heart attack. Now, 20% decrease in heart-related issues like heart attack, stroke, or death from some heart-related issue. That's really important.
Starting point is 01:35:44 This is an important study. I want to also point out that I didn't like the amount, and I think other people have talked about, that there wasn't enough representation. It was mostly white males. Oh, it wasn't diverse. It wasn't diverse. Okay, that's a disclaimer.
Starting point is 01:35:56 Now let's get into it. Come on, Doc. Okay, so there's a lot of people that hear about these weight loss drugs, and they want to lose 5, 7, maybe 10 pounds. Do you recommend that they go in this direction? No. hear about these weight loss drugs and they want to lose five, seven, maybe 10 pounds. Do you recommend that they go in this direction? No. And I'm really glad that you mentioned that. OK, I have a lot of because the agency wanted me to bring this up. Do internal medicine and GI. I have a lot of patients who come to me and say, I want to lose that, you know, six or seven, eight pounds. That's not the group of people who've been studied. We don't know the long
Starting point is 01:36:24 term side effects in those people or even the effects in those people. So I think we have to say there is a shortage of this drug and these kind of drugs because I think a lot of people who are not in the group that it's been recommended for, I think it's important to just follow. Yeah, yeah, okay, well, good. Please, there's a shortage, so get in, get in early now.
Starting point is 01:36:46 I mean, it works for you if you want to lose six or seven pounds, but don't, don't do that. Don't, don't, don't do that. So these weight loss drugs are getting really popular and they're so effective, but are they too good to be true? And then what happens when someone stops taking the medicine, they might gain the weight back. And then what happens to now their heart health if they were depending on that? Yeah. So I love these questions, right? Because it's big picture stuff. And because the agency, again, asked me to talk about it. We have to look at the big picture. There really hasn't been a good intervention for people to lose weight. And we know that it's important for people to lose weight for all sorts of reasons.
Starting point is 01:37:19 So this is a tool in our toolbox, right? A tool. But it's not the only tool in our toolbox. We do have a diet and we do have exercise. And I think that's really important. But, you know, it is something that for the first time we have something that's effective. But again, you have to use it judiciously. So what did he didn't answer the question? He said, you could, you know, you could use diet or exercise, but it's a tool. I mean, why use a screwdriver if you've got this hammer? Use the hammer? Use the hammer. Use the hammer. And then finally, the money shot. So this is not only a study of Wagovi,
Starting point is 01:37:50 but by Wagovi in the sense of the drug maker conducted the research. Should that make us extra skeptical? And you think insurance companies are going to look at this and think, okay. No, this is the insurance company question. Here we go. So this is not only a study of Wagovi, but by Wagovi in the sense of the drug maker conducted the research. Should that make us extra skeptical? And do you think insurance companies are going to look at this and think, okay, we'll cover it now? That's a good question. I think I always look at who funded the study or who ran the study. And I think you're right. It was the drug company who funded it. And I think that is something that
Starting point is 01:38:22 you want to always look at. And so you want to look down and say, OK, let me look. I've got the study here. I've read it about 10 times. I want to see if there's anything that doesn't quite make sense. Oh, yes. I did my own research. But what was the sentence? Will insurance get involved and cover this? Right. So right now, I am in battles all the time with insurance companies not paying for this medication or this group of medications and people who absolutely should be on it. People with BMI over 30, they have diabetes, they have heart disease and they won't pay it. So I think this is a big battle going on. What's interesting here is now they can't say, well, it's just cosmetic. It's showing that it actually decreases the risk of
Starting point is 01:39:00 heart attack, stroke or death for the people that need it. There's optimism. For the people who need it. All right, insurance companies, your move, Dr. John LaPook. Thank you very much. Appreciate it. Literally, the script says, now tell them it's their move. It's their move. It's not just cosmetic. Wow, that's pretty, that is a three-pronged attack.
Starting point is 01:39:19 Yes. Yes. Aimed at the insurance companies on behalf of a drug company it's got lots of money and this is the reason why drug money should not be mixing with media and with these with these purchases of of time which is what that that was a native ad as the others were yes and this should be illegal is this we're the only country that allows this besides the idiots in new zealand and no agenda producers, if you're on antidepressants and you're gaining weight,
Starting point is 01:39:48 I love you. I love you. I don't care how fat you are. I love you. Seriously. Don't, don't, it doesn't sound like a good idea to add this to the mix. It doesn't.
Starting point is 01:39:58 But to change topics here, I want to talk about our new intelligence agency. I love you. I love you just the size you are. Okay. That's important for me to say, because I love, I love our producers.
Starting point is 01:40:10 I don't care how big they are. I don't know why you're calling them big. Um, so we have a new, I didn't know this, but we have an intelligence agency that is not really listed in the big what is 16 of them that we're supposed to have 17. Not sure. I thought it was 23. Well, whatever it is, this is another one.
Starting point is 01:40:34 And it's kind of slipped by everybody. And I'm going to see if you can pick it up in this conversation with Mark Warner on Face the Nation last Sunday. And he's talking about all the crap that's going on. He's the head of the Senate Intelligence Committee. So he knows about everything that's got anything to do with intelligence. No, he knows everything. Yes, he knows everything. So I want to get to just the beginning of this here.
Starting point is 01:41:00 This is kind of the first clip that just kind of introduced what they're chatting about this is kind of meaningless but here we go i also think the president needs to push president xi on the continuing intellectual property theft that some years accounts for close to five billion dollars of intellectual property being stolen and i firmly believe when we've seen no retreat from china in terms of its level of technology investment, I absolutely believe that national security in the 21st century is more than tanks and guns. It is who wins the battle for artificial intelligence and quantum computing and advanced energy. The level of Chinese investment, for example, on rare earth minerals coming out of Africa is huge.
Starting point is 01:41:42 And we need to be able to counter that with america and with our friends okay so he doesn't know what he's doing um okay so here we go a clip to and and the intelligence agency is casually dropped in here the new one and he never says anything uh one way or the other about i have a third clip just to back that up to show that after this but they But listen to it. See if you can figure out who this is. So you want guardrails, I imagine, set up with China on artificial intelligence and the like. Guardrails.
Starting point is 01:42:15 You know, there's three things we've got to look at. One is insane. Two is guardrails. And the third is uptick. Uptick is everywhere now as well. Uptick. Uptick. Legislating around a lot of this is really hard.
Starting point is 01:42:31 It's not moving very quickly. Margaret, let me tell you, I did the bill that was terribly bipartisan, 13 and 13 Democrats, Republicans, about saying we need an approach that's not simply focused on TikTok, but on all foreign technology that might pose a national security risk from China or Russia or Iran. And suddenly we had the extremes on both the left and the right come out against that legislation. It needs to move because particularly now, as you see, literally 40% of young people get all their news from TikTok. So I hope those kind of issues will be, we can get some energy behind them now coming after this summit. But this technology competition, we've had military competitors like Russia.
Starting point is 01:43:13 We've never had an economy that's making the investments the way China is in these new technology domains. So Microsoft this week came out with a report that said Russia, Iran, and China will interfere in the 2024 presidential race not not they were certain about this um and other close presidential races worldwide oh you mean uh the guys who read everybody's outlook and have access to uh what word documents you open and any application you open. You mean those guys? Since when did Microsoft not only become an intelligence agency,
Starting point is 01:43:53 but do these reports about who's going to interfere with the election? They've been doing that for a while. I mean, they know all of these zero-day exploits. It's all Windows. Windows is the spyware for everybody. Well, I would think that Mark Warner would say, hey, wait a minute. They're not an intelligence agency that can make these determinations. Yeah, they are.
Starting point is 01:44:20 They're Microsoft. That's what he should say. Well, you're saying that. So you're saying it's official? Are they a government agency? If Bill Gates can be the doctor of vaccines, why couldn't Microsoft be in charge of intelligence? Well, I guess they are,
Starting point is 01:44:35 because here's what he says after this. Right immediately after she makes this accusation that Microsoft is telling us about the upcoming elections, he just sloughs it off yeah microsoft's obviously one of our boys is your legislation going to stop something like that i think our legislation will take on an issue like a tiktok which is i'm afraid could be used as a propaganda channel tiktok he wasn't even talking about tiktok no just just shut up about microsoft man he's got the uh and by the way he made the assertion that 40 of america's youths youths youths youths youths have
Starting point is 01:45:16 get their news from tiktok i i go on tiktok as much as anybody for certain to get my clips I've never seen a news report on TikTok have you well now you now you're just being a fuddy-duddy because no of course there's no news reports what they get is that the all those chicks talking about uh talking about the the letter from Osama that's news to them that's news news is is a fight between Ben Shapiro and Candace Owens. That's news. There's no news reports. That's old school. They also, have I told you about the restaurant in Amsterdam?
Starting point is 01:45:58 They don't go to Yelp anymore to get restaurant reviews. No, they go on TikTok and they say, where can I get great, great stroopwafels in Amsterdam? And then they'll just look at videos and then they'll go make a video because they were there where all the videos were made. It's a plague.
Starting point is 01:46:16 And the reason Warner was the guy who wrote the legislation because Google at all are flipping out. They know they're losing market share. That's the only reason I remain, my stance remains firm. No, I'm not going to, and it's a stance I can't argue against. I can argue against a few things you do, but not that.
Starting point is 01:46:37 It's obviously Google, and Google probably is a big supporter of Mark Warner. Big time. All those guys are. They hate it. Well, all of them, and that's why the whole mention of Microsoft in this report as an intelligence agency telling us about
Starting point is 01:46:52 the upcoming elections, it just went right off his back like water off a duck because it was like, yeah. It was, yeah. Yeah, Microsoft knows. This is a setup. This is bad, by the way. Microsoft should not know.
Starting point is 01:47:07 No. Have you ever installed Windows and read what it says? Hey, we're going to track this. We're going to track that. We're going to check this. Don't worry about it. It's all good. It's anonymized.
Starting point is 01:47:17 Don't worry about it. It's all good. Apple, you start up an app on Apple. A little ping to Apple HQ. All of that is compromised. And this is all a setup to some AI bull crap stories and AI is so dangerous. We need to get in there right away because it's not doing the right thing. We don't have control over it. Or maybe someone has control over it that we don't like. And so we need to regulate everything. And Nikki Haley is right on point. I'm sure you've seen the clip.
Starting point is 01:47:56 And this is going to happen because the big AI guy in America here is Elon Musk. And he's already on this path. This is literally his talking points. Nikki Haley is in the bag. When I get into office, the first thing we have to do, social media accounts, social media companies, they have to show America their algorithms. Let us see why they're pushing what they're pushing. The second thing is every person on social media should be verified by their name. That's first of all, it's a national security threat
Starting point is 01:48:25 when you do that all of a sudden people have to stand by what they say and it gets rid of the russian bots the iranian bots and the chinese bots and then you're going to get some civility when people know their name is next to what they say accountability and they know their pastor and their family member is going to see it it's going to help our kids and it's going to help our country. Oh, no, not my pastor. Wait, wait, you mean the names are going to have to be verified? So Namarata Rahawa, which is Nikki Haley's real name, is going to have to switch her name to something realistic instead of the phony baloney Nikki Haley?
Starting point is 01:49:01 Yes, yes, of course. So it should be not, orra nimarata nimarata rand hawa yes yeah and it has but everyone else gonna maybe it's okay for her to go with nikki haley okay i'm first of all i'm a proponent of this i agree wholeheartedly let's destroy it all everybody has to register and be verified for all platforms. I'm all in. That's great. And I'll just sit there with my little blog and my little RSS feed,
Starting point is 01:49:31 and I can be anonymous, and I can call myself Nikki Haley if I want to. I'm all in. All platforms should be registered, and you should be part of the system and the gulag. Totally. She's on the right path. Go, Nikki. What's her name?
Starting point is 01:49:44 Nimrod? Nimrod. Nimrod. Nimrod. Yes. Elon's going to do this because it'll be connected to your bank account. This is what they want. And I'm all for it. Go, please.
Starting point is 01:49:58 This is how we destroy the internet. The open, free internet. Yeah. You've got to register for YouTube. You You got to register for YouTube, you got to register for Google. If you want to use that stuff, then you deserve to be tracked and punished
Starting point is 01:50:12 when you go astray. Meanwhile, I'll sit here with my little Linux and my little Start9 server and I'll just be happy as a clam. And I'll put my podcast on there through IPFS and you'll like it
Starting point is 01:50:26 hi i'm adam curry and i have a podcast yes it's the only thing left that still that still is has not been compromised they even got spotify to try it and they couldn't do it couldn't do it couldn't do it it's always doable it's not the network yes licensing the fcc is going to take care of it good luck good luck yeah good luck i've been predicting this for years it's not going it's only the only people the golden age right now people who can the golden age the only support no agenda it's golden age. The only people who can issue podcast licenses is your No Agenda show. No one else has the right but us. Well, I think the No Agenda show podcast license is one way of going in.
Starting point is 01:51:14 We should also have an awards show. The award shows are great because everyone has to pay to enter. That's my favorite part of the award. Podcast award shows, you gotta pay a hundred bucks. I think the first two years is going to be free. No, but all of them are now for pay. And it's like, oh.
Starting point is 01:51:35 That's how you do it. How else do you expect to do these things? Well, I mean, do people pay to enter the Oscars? Is there an entrance fee? No, but that's picked up by the, you have to be a member. Oh, yeah. Oh, membership.
Starting point is 01:51:52 Well, there you go. It's the same with the Emmys. You have to be a member. All right. And let's switch gears for a second because there's more propaganda. And the reason is obvious. The propaganda is COP 29. I have a couple of climate clips
Starting point is 01:52:07 just because I knew you were going to do this. I'll kick it off with the new study from The Lancet. This is important because whenever... Wait, wait, wait, stop. The Lancet is a medical journal. Yes, sir. The Lancet is a medical journal and is very concerned about your climate health.
Starting point is 01:52:25 According to a report by over 100 researchers from international institutions, heat-related deaths could increase 4.7 fold by the middle of this century. Wait, did she say 100 racists and it's hate-related deaths? Yes, 100 racists with hate-related deaths. According to a report by over 100 researchers from international institutions, heat-related deaths could increase 4.7 fold by the middle of this century without global action on climate change. Heat-related mortality of adults over 65 years of age, a very vulnerable age group, have increased by 85% since the 90s alone. And we
Starting point is 01:53:06 now know that more than half of that increase wouldn't have occurred if temperatures hadn't increased. So we know that it's climate change causing this. The 2023 report of the Lancet Countdown on Health and Climate Change was published on Wednesday and outlines the imperative need for a health-centered response in a world facing irreversible harms. It states that in 2023, the world saw its highest global temperatures in over 100,000 years and also that areas affected by extreme drought are growing, jeopardizing water security, sanitation and food production. One of the solutions posed by this researcher is to consider how infrastructure and economies plan for rising temperatures.
Starting point is 01:53:50 For example, the existence of terraces, green roofs, these work. Blue zones, parks with fountains and climatic shelters work. Therefore, things that are known to work at the local level should be applied. But first, he says the goal is to drastically reduce greenhouse gas emissions. According to the report, 1,337 tons of carbon dioxide is still emitted every second, the consequences of which could be dire on our health systems. Now, before you hit us with your clips, by the way, that 100,000 years, there's even more coming up later.
Starting point is 01:54:26 In America, we have to, you know, this doesn't work for us. Like, really? I'm going to die from the heat. I live in Texas. You know, what are you trying to do to me? Like, I'm not going to die from heat-related death. Here's how we do it in America on ABC. Some Christmas tree farms are being forced to close in multiple states due to a shortage this year. A Christmas tree farm outside New Orleans says it suffered extensive damage due to the drought and the heat this year. And in New York, one farm says a major shipment of Fraser trees
Starting point is 01:54:55 was canceled due to the shortage, forcing the farm to close for the season. We didn't want to open just partial and have people come in and be disappointed. We thought the right decision was to close the farm this year, let the field get a little bit bigger, give us time to source some trees for next year. Another factor in the tree shortage, the historic wildfires in Canada this year. Climate change, baby. Oh, your Christmas tree. Oh, no. I need to emit less CO2. I'm a horrible person. My favorite is what they're doing with Iceland. Iceland's great. Iceland is, I mean, it is one hotbed of volcanic and seismic activity.
Starting point is 01:55:40 Always has been. Always has been. Always has been. And so it's a little worse this year so we have a perpetual drone shot of a highway that's cracking up i wonder what this could be from what could this be from iceland hit once again by a series of earthquakes the tremors have sparked fears of a volcanic eruption in the recunus peninsula in the southwest of the island authorities have declared a state of emergency.
Starting point is 01:56:11 According to the Icelandic Met Office, the IMO, an eruption could take place in several days. According to the IMO, some 24,000 tremors have been registered on the peninsula since late October, as well as three eruptions since 2021. Eruptions which experts say could become larger and increasingly common as climate change melts glaciers. The current deglaciation that's occurring in Iceland is affecting... That is disgusting. It's because of the deglaciation. Listen up. Climate change melts glaciers. With the current deglaciation that's occurring... Everybody knows volcanoes are caused by melting glaciers.
Starting point is 01:56:44 Climate change melts glaciers. The current deglaciation that's occurring in Iceland is affecting our volcanoes and magma bodies that are residing beneath these volcanoes. In the future, this could mean either more frequent or larger eruptions. Iceland has around 30 active volcanic sites, the highest number in Europe, an unpredictable environment for its residents. In 2010, an eruption in the south of the island led to the cancellation of tens of thousands of flights, leaving some 10 million people stranded.
Starting point is 01:57:17 It's all climate change. That was... Hold on a second. I think that was France 24. It doesn't sound like France 24. I had it written down, France 24. It's on the clip. Well, that's gross.
Starting point is 01:57:36 Well, PBS... That's a lie. They're just basically lying to scare people. It's disgusting. That clip just irks me. Yeah, I know. Here's disgusting. That clip just irks me. Yeah, I know. Here's PBS. The UN's weather agency warned today that greenhouse gases in the atmosphere reached a record high in 2022
Starting point is 01:57:51 with no end in sight. New data showed average concentrations of carbon dioxide were 50% above pre-industrial levels for the first time. Methane and nitrous oxide were also higher, raising the odds of more extreme weather events. Practically the whole planet has seen an increase of heat waves. About half of the planet has been facing an increase of flooding events and one third of the planet has been facing an increase of drought events and this negative trend will continue until 2060s. This is all set up to the big COP25. Wait, wait, wait. Play this clip. Climate war CO2. Is this the same clip?
Starting point is 01:58:32 Let me see. The UN's weather agency warned today that greenhouse gas... You got it from PBS. Yes, that's PBS. You shouldn't be there. What do you mean I shouldn't be there? What do you mean I shouldn't be there? You shouldn't be there. I can be at PBS shouldn't be there? You shouldn't be there. I can be at PBS all I want.
Starting point is 01:58:47 I don't go to NTD, believe me. That's your beat. Kind of the adjunct to that clip is the methane report, which is, I don't know why they have to do this. Yes. Because you can't do anything about methane. I mean, it's not like, you know, it's cow farts. Meanwhile, European Union negotiators agreed today on a deal to lower methane emissions. about methane i mean it's not like you know it's it's cow farts meanwhile european union
Starting point is 01:59:05 negotiators agreed today on a deal to lower methane emissions the bloc's energy sector would have to monitor report and take action on cutting emissions the deal still needs approval by the european parliament and executive council yeah but that means getting rid of more cows come on cbs cbs is in on the game. A new report released by the White House today shows that every corner of the country is being impacted by climate change. Every corner? Every corner? Every corner.
Starting point is 01:59:34 Are you finding Fredericksburg, Texas to be impacted by climate change? No, because we're not a corner. We're in the middle. I'm noticing, well, I'm kind of a corner here in the San Francisco Bay Area, but I'm not seeing it. All I'm seeing is lousy weather reports that are inaccurate. You know, if the IPCC and the COP29 people, if they were smart, they'd be inviting us on the junket. There's a problem when you're not corruptible. You get on a list.
Starting point is 02:00:04 I'm corruptible. Give me a suite. You say you're corruptible, but the problem is you're not corruptible. You get on a list. I'm corruptible. Give me a suite. You say you're corruptible, but the problem is you're on the list, and nobody, it's like these blacklists you have for the website and other things. You can't get, you have to go find what the list is, where you're on that list, and they're not going to give you the free money. Well, that's lame. Yeah, it's too bad.
Starting point is 02:00:27 Too bad for you. CBS got in on this deal a new report released by the white house today shows that every corner of the country is being impacted by climate change that's just one of the findings in a new national climate assessment the first one in five years cbs has been tracy reports on the dire warnings in our continuing series, Protecting the Planet. Stronger storms, devastating drought, heat waves, and wildfires. The new National Climate Assessment says the effects of climate change in the U.S. are now far-reaching and worsening. It's affecting Americans right now, no matter where they live. Climate scientist Kate Marvel worked on the assessment. Are we running out of time to avoid the worst impacts of climate change? We are the last generation that is really going to be able to make a meaningful difference in the In the U.S., there is now a billion dollar weather disaster on average every three weeks,
Starting point is 02:01:22 compared to three per year in the 1980s costing 150 billion dollars the report says u.s greenhouse gas emissions mainly from the burning of fossil fuels are falling but not quickly enough yet wind and solar power are rapidly yes if they're falling they're not enough how come this co2 numbers all of a sudden the highest in history and going up and not seeming to stop at all? It's not enough. So in other words, fossil fuels got nothing to do with the CO2. Is that what he's saying? Because that's contradicting what we just heard.
Starting point is 02:01:55 It's not enough. All you need to hear is it's not enough. You're not doing enough. You need carbon credits to offset your being. It says U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, mainly from the burning of fossil fuels, are falling, but not quickly enough. Yet wind and solar power are rapidly expanding, now cheaper than burning coal. The future is very much in human hands, and our choices are really going to determine how hot it's going to get in the future. Now, scientists say we just lived through the
Starting point is 02:02:25 hottest 12 months in at least 125,000 years, and nor have they said that should give us a sense of urgency about cutting our planet warming emissions. Where'd they get the extra 25,000 years? It's the White House. And the White House is better. It's better than the IPCC. And they said, no, no. The IPCC's in 100,000 years, but they said 125,000 years. These guys are better. Do we have any documentation for the temperatures 50,000 years ago? Yes, look at this chart. Look at this graph. It's to the right
Starting point is 02:02:54 and up. It's a hockey stick. What is wrong with you? It's lucky you're on a podcast because we de-platform you. If you were posting any of this nonsense on X, the funniest thing that happened, this is really the funniest.
Starting point is 02:03:10 So Greta Thunberg, Greta Thunberg, who amazingly still looks 15, even though she's, I think she's legal to drink. I think she's like 23. Yeah, she's up there. Let me look it up.
Starting point is 02:03:25 No, she's probably 20. She's like 23. Yeah, I think she's up there. Let me look it up. No, she's probably 20. She's in Amsterdam. And so this is a climate rally. And she starts talking about Palestine, which is odd. Oh, geez. Because, you know, she's a for hire. She's 20. She's 20.
Starting point is 02:03:44 She's a protester for hire. And she, by the way, is going to be forever a kid because she's 4'11". Really? Yep. Troll. So she's at this climate rally. A little taller than Yellen. You never see him in the same picture, do you?
Starting point is 02:04:07 She's at the climate rally in amsterdam and she's spouting off about palestine and then some dude comes up and says hey i'm here for climate protest not for your political crap and then and then a whole bunch of kids and kiffy is bum rush the guy you know he grabs the. He grabs the mic from Greta. She grabs it back. She's like, calm down. And then she goes into the slogan, which is just baffling.
Starting point is 02:04:31 I will narrate. We have not been listening. The people in power have not been listening. I have come here for a climate demonstration, not a political view. Boo. Boo. Boo.
Starting point is 02:04:44 Boo. No. No, she grabs the mic. They're bum-rushing him. Calm down. Calm down. Calm down. Now, wait for the new slogan. The crowd starts the slogan and Greta joins in.
Starting point is 02:05:13 No climate justice on occupied land. No climate justice on occupied land. No climate justice on occupied land. Explain to me what that means. No climate justice on occupied lands i have that that is a baffler and and their chances but they're all chanting it so it must have some meaning to them well so you can't have climate justice and it's a plural uh, on occupied land. So they're talking about Palestine. No climate justice. We hate all Jews is what they could have been chanting. We hate all Jews.
Starting point is 02:05:54 That's what they should have said. It's the same cadence. No, it's not the same cadence. It's not the same cadence. It's not. It's incredible what's going on in the world. It's outrageous. They really have no idea what they're talking about. They're just throwing stuff out there. And then she joins in.
Starting point is 02:06:23 No climate justice on occupied lands it's fantastic and by the way gaza is not occupied i mean it's it's self-sufficient the operation oh it's so good and the last thing i'll have in the climate because it's it's kind of it's related to climate change in multiple ways is this protest has been going on down in Panama. You know, Sir Mark has a place there, and he's half Panamanian. Void Zero? No, no, no. Mark Hall, our film director.
Starting point is 02:06:55 Oh, Mark, our film director. Our film guy. So he's been cluing me into this. He said, these protests are pretty wild. What's going on? The whole country is protesting. And it's about a copper mine, which is interesting because we know
Starting point is 02:07:07 that something's up with copper insofar as that copper mines are not opening. Some of them are closing. There are estimates that we will have nowhere near enough copper to satisfy the needs of the incredible electric vehicles that will be mandated across the globe jack the price up works well well it's going to be jack the high heaven and so i found a report which
Starting point is 02:07:33 is a local report but at least it gives us some insight this is yeah it's the same and it kind of relates the climate because here in america we saw the this guy shoot two protesters in cold blood killed them and and they were deemed climate protesters but they're not climate protesters these are panamanians who are sick and tired of their government selling them out like the panama canal and they don't want a repeat of what happened with that and with Noriega. And they don't want that. They want their country to be controlled and the money to go to them. And there's all kinds of shenanigans going on.
Starting point is 02:08:15 Listen to that horn. Panama is on fire. Massive protests are rippling across the country. Roadblocks, unions on strike, school and university classes canceled. Workers, teachers, indigenous groups are in the streets. They're protesting the government's approval of a renegotiated contract with the Canadian mining firm for the operation of Central America's largest open-pit copper mine. It's a massive land concession, almost the size of the city of Miami.
Starting point is 02:08:46 They say it's a handout to a foreign company, an attack on Panama's sovereignty, and a threat to the environment. The people in the streets say they will not back down. They have just one demand, revoke the new contract. The copper mine is run by Canada's first quantum minerals, with investors including the Chinese state, the U.S. Capital Group, Fidelity, Vanguard, and BlackRock, among others. It has been in production since 2019 and extracting 300,000 tons of copper a year. But two years ago, Panama's Supreme Court ruled that the state contract with the mine was unconstitutional because it did not serve the public good. The contract was renegotiated.
Starting point is 02:09:30 This one, government officials said, was a huge improvement, offering windfall profits for the state. Last week, it was fast-tracked through Congress and signed into law by the president. But not without resistance. The government has celebrated the new mining contract. They say it's a huge win for the country that will save 40,000 direct and indirect jobs and provide sizable profits from mining royalties to the state. In an effort to appease the growing unrest, President Laurentino Cortes spoke to the country on Tuesday and
Starting point is 02:10:03 announced that by next month his government would be using these funds to lift pensions for retirees to a minimum of $350 a month, a 75% rise over the current minimum. But it only fueled the fire in the streets. Most Panamanians saw the proposed measure as an attempt to buy off retirees while ignoring the central demand of the protest. Roads and major portions of the Pan-American Highway remain blocked across the country. This sentiment that the contract is an attack on Panamanian sovereignty runs deep, and it's an important reason why the protests have gained so much traction. Political analysts say that in order to truly understand why so much of the
Starting point is 02:10:45 population is against this mining contract, you have to look to the past. Good. We've covered it. I don't know if we can do anything else about it. Well, I like to look to the past. Well, the past is that then they go into the Panama Canal and how that was, you know, I don't think Panama owns the Panama Canal was you know i don't think panama owns the panama canal pretty sure they don't no it's called the canal zone is a separate entity exactly it's not a matter of ownership it's a matter of sovereignty they don't have any yeah sovereignty over the panama the whole country is pretty pissed they shut the country down for that they shut the whole country down when they've been pissed earlier
Starting point is 02:11:26 now all of a sudden they're pissed that means there's agitators that are making this happen and I would say Marxists probably probably yeah I'm still befuddled in fact by the Greta Thunberg clip
Starting point is 02:11:43 it's horrible isn't it? No climate justice, unoccupied land, nuke the polar bear. I mean, what are you going to say? We got to do something here. I haven't asked Adam before we get to our break. Oh, well, good. I'm excited about that. The question is answered right at the beginning of this clip. Let me play a new and updated Ask Adam jingle. I'm excited about that. And questions answered right at the beginning of this clip.
Starting point is 02:12:05 Well, let me play a new and updated Ask Adam jingle. I'm there. Ask Adam. Answer the question. Go. I like it. I like it. By doing my answer the question. Go. Mark Levin. All right. So what answer the question go go mark mark levin yeah all right so what is the question who controls 70 percent of the diamond trade industry the trade in diamonds is controlled
Starting point is 02:12:35 by one country yes but to the tune of 70 if you don't know the answer to this question just offhand, which I I'd be surprised you'll never guess it I am going to think about this, who controls the diamond? Don't look it up I'm not doing that, in fact I have my eyes closed I promise you
Starting point is 02:12:59 I am going to say answer the question, go I'm going to say the Answer the question. Go. I'm going to say the Netherlands with De Beers mining. Do I get to play the clip now? Go. Russian diamonds account for 70% of global diamond jewelry demand. Did she say Russian? Yep.
Starting point is 02:13:22 Major Western jewelers from Tiffany's to Cartier have been keen to distance themselves from Russia's lucrative diamond trades. But a big hurdle is how to trace the origin of the stones. Some companies will struggle, says Tugendhaft. We can do it because we've been working on traceability for the last two years. You should know that people who have been working with big brands, traceability is not something that comes out of the sky as of now. All the new players in the industry who have not yet started with traceability
Starting point is 02:14:00 are going to lag behind, for sure. He said that not only would a full Western ban on Russian gems be costly for the industry, it could also take another year to fully implement. Oh, man. How did Russia take over the business right beneath our noses? I don't know.
Starting point is 02:14:17 And nobody knows about it. I was stunned by this. I would have guessed Belgium, Holland, Great Britain. Yeah, Belgium would have been good and if they said china i would not have been surprised no no wow well the more you know i just got a text message i'd like to share with you friend you guys suck get off the air quite friend it's kamala how do you take your coffee cream and sugar black i'm asking because we're offering an all expenses paid trip for you and a guest to grab a coffee with joe and me

Starting point is 02:16:52 Trolls are deserving us. Down by a good 100 people. Yeah. Trolls. Not people. Trolls. Trolls. You know why?
Starting point is 02:17:00 It's because of my hate of memes. Well, I think it's you. It's just me. Go ahead. It's just you, not the hate of memes. Nobody cares. It has nothing to do with the fact that we won't take a side. We won't pick a side. You've got to pick a side. You've got to denounce genocide. Pick a side.
Starting point is 02:17:19 I'm going to pick a side right now. I think spinach with cream sauce would be good. That's a good side. I've always liked it. It's good at a steakhouse. And what's so sad is that even our people are spun up and they think they have to pick a side. And they don't understand that they're being abused by political parties who want you to vote against the people who pick the wrong side. They don't care about anything else. They don wrong side. They don't care about anything else.
Starting point is 02:17:46 They don't care. They don't care about you. We barely care about you. A little bit. We care a lot about them. As you mentioned, you like the rotund of people in the audience. Especially. Yes.
Starting point is 02:18:01 Of course, we love our producers. That's why we call them producers, not fans or listeners or data or numbers to sell to an advertiser. Numbers to sell to the advertiser. None of that. In fact, we only call these people trolls because we allow you to go crazy and troll in an ephemeral place. To a point well no but you can't even get in trouble it goes away you troll and you're done it's like and it makes you it's actually it is good for me and look at some of my terms here this is uh a good mental health experience to be in the troll room and to just go that's it's a good mental health experience because you won't get in trouble.
Starting point is 02:18:47 You don't have to use your registered Nikki Haley name. You know, you can just call whatever you want, you know, and then, and it's not going to bug me because it scrolls off and you do it on no agenda social, a different story. You can follow Adam at no agenda, social.com, John C. DeVore. I could get on your case there. Oh yeah. We do in theasocial.com, John C. Dvorak at noagendasocial.com.

Starting point is 02:20:43 He has three kids. He wants to move back to Texas and Forbes picked him up as a writer. So, you know, I hope that he makes it through the editor. What was the point of the article?

Starting point is 02:22:02 Oh. So it's, unless you're, well, maybe, I mean, you could probably hold on there and bit shoot or. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. This is the most exciting one. On Wednesday, I will be interviewed by the founder and CEO. Are you ready? Of Brighteon.
Starting point is 02:22:24 The founder and CEO of of brighteon yes i know right does he what is he is a podcaster well uh let me see let me look at the email here for a second um i mean it seems that the CEO should be a CEO. Yeah, but he does a podcast also about, I can't, I'm looking for it now. I thought I had it in my, yeah, well, he does interviews with people who are, you know, like a free speech. Free speech. Free speech. I can hear you're baffled. I'm kind of, yeah, is he Pete Santilli? No, no, no, let me look, let me see, Brighteon.
Starting point is 02:23:14 Let me find this email. Mike Adams is on Brighteon. Yeah, yeah, that's right. That's about as free speech as you can get. He's been interviewed by him. Gosh. Well, that's interesting. I thought I had saved this in my bookings folder,
Starting point is 02:23:31 but I hope they email me with details. But yeah, here it is. Oh, it is actually, it is Mike Adams. You're going to be interviewed by Mike Adams? Yes. I think he's the founder and CEO. That's the natural news guy, right? Yeah, my name is Saley.
Starting point is 02:23:53 I'm thrilled to connect with you on behalf of Mike Adams, founder of Brighteon.com, a freeze-peach platform. Mike has just launched a show called Decentralized TV, where he delves into the realms of DeFi daps and the tangible impact of technology on humanity, championing privacy and decentralization. And at first I thought this was one of those things where you have to pay. Yeah, sounds like it. But they actually say, our show, what's even more enticing is that we're not seeking anything from you other than your valuable time so it is that's interesting you know no one ever puts that in
Starting point is 02:24:33 there unless they normally charge so maybe he's going to do the interview and then he says now do you want me to post this you got to pay me would that would he do that that would be funny that would be funny i'm gonna run a recording next to this just in case yeah you should definitely record it i like white mic in the chat room curry that's great you'll get at least another 15 more people listening to the show i'm guessing 10 hey man i'm taking it all i'm just trying to help out the show we're losing no i think you the show. We're losing people. We're losing people. You might actually like it.
Starting point is 02:25:07 We are because we always lose people. We lost people during the vax COVID thing. Curiously, most of them are dead. You're horrible. And then we've lost people on the Ukraine war. We lost a lot. We lost a lot. We lost a lot. Ukraine war because we didn't take sides on that.
Starting point is 02:25:29 Do you remember how furious people were? I can't believe you. This is genocide of the Ukrainian people. You're carrying water for Putin. You're horrible. My God, I can't believe you. I can't believe that you're just laughing about children and babies being killed. All we do is deconstruct news.
Starting point is 02:25:48 I mean, what's to complain about? Well, I think it's the laughing that people don't like. You know, people need to get it loosened up. I'm with you. Yeah, we do laugh probably at things, you know, but we're not laughing at dead Ukrainians. We're laughing at the stupidity of the news media. And the people who lap it up. And the people who lap it up and parrot it.
Starting point is 02:26:15 Lap, lap, lap, and then off they go. Lap, lap, lap, and off they go. That's it. There's your slogan. Lap, lap, lap, and off they go. Okay. That's it. There's your slogan. Lap, lap, lap, and off you go. So as a part of the value for value proposition, which I guess I'll be talking to Mike Adams about. Hey, man.
Starting point is 02:26:35 I wonder if this is the same Mike Adams. I think it is. I don't know if that it is. The problem with the name Mike Adams is there are... There's a lot of Mike Adams in the phone book. It's like, you know, Adam Curry. There's too many of them. You know, all the other Adam Currys are black.
Starting point is 02:26:53 Well, that's the funny thing of it, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But there's a lot of them. How do you know? Is there an Adam Curry convention I missed? There probably should be.
Starting point is 02:27:08 Our artists are part of our time, talent, and treasure value for value mechanism, which we appreciate because these pieces of artwork do very well for the show. People like to comment on them. People like to fight over them. People like to put it on T-shirts, hats, mugs, cozies, and other paraphernalia, which is all run and organized by a non-affiliated group called No Agenda Shop. Noagendashop.com. They make a donation from time to time.
Starting point is 02:27:37 We love the whole idea of y'all just owning it all and doing it all. All we want to do is just do the show. We just want to do the show, deconstruct the media, and we don't we want to do is just do the show. We just want to do the show, deconstruct the media, and we don't even talk to each other outside of the show. We have nothing left to say to each other. Nothing.
Starting point is 02:27:52 Although Tina is always a little irked. She says, after the show, you guys are always laughing it up. You're giggling. You're all jitty and giggling after the show. But that's usually because we're looking at... No, that's just women's jealousy. They don't like bros.
Starting point is 02:28:07 Bros. Oh, yeah. Mimi says... What was Mimi's comment? She says, you know, you were too happy on the last show. What are you talking about? She says, you were just like,
Starting point is 02:28:17 oh, you're all jitty on the show. Like, you know, I said, well, I may have two cups of coffee. She says, I don't know. And she's gross about it. She was unhappy because we were laughing about, we were happy about death. Is that what it is again?
Starting point is 02:28:29 No, I just have no idea. We're not happy about death. By the way, I think you nailed her voice. That was so close to exactly how she sounds. I'm not supposed to use that voice for her. I'm supposed to use, oh, now you change it. Oh, you were too happy. She agreed that I could do that voice for her.
Starting point is 02:28:49 I like the other one. At least I have my opening clip. So let us thank the artist who brought us the artwork for episode 1607, incorrectly listed as 1707 in our intro, and incorrectly posted as 1606, but we fixed it all, most of it. Sorry about that. Hey, I'm getting older. Really?
Starting point is 02:29:11 Mistakes creep in. You could have guessed, if you're an artist, that we would like to do something for our veterans on Veterans Day. Many of you nailed it. Correct the record, completely got it. And brought us a nice piece of artwork with uh no agenda with a salute there with the flag and thank you vets was really what uh what took it over the top for us yes that was that little cut little thing on the there was other good art about
Starting point is 02:29:36 vets but the thank you vets little ditty yeah because this was kind of a one-dimensional piece. It wasn't like anything that was outrageously artsy. No, by no stretch of the imagination, actually. But it was clean, and it had the thank you on there, and it did the trick. For an interesting, the comic strip blogger had a complete AI piece, which I think I actually found myself voting for a little bit for a month there. I liked it too. I thought it was quite nice. And then we just nixed it under the AI rule.
Starting point is 02:30:15 Podcasting a can. I think half the stuff on here is AI. Oh, yeah. Yeah, we're in AI hell. There's nothing we can do about it. Let me see. A lot came... Artists themselves do about it. Let me see. Artists themselves are using it.
Starting point is 02:30:30 A lot came in after the fact, which is really a shame. Which ones came in after the fact? Oh, look at the list, man. I'm looking at it now. I mean, I don't remember meme in a can. I do. You do? Yep. I liked a meme in a can. do you do um yep i liked a meme in the can that came through the only one that that
Starting point is 02:30:49 showed up late in as far as i can remember is the dog which i use for the newsletter which is the good news oh yeah okay yeah maybe it's just must my my memory shot that one definitely came in after the fact there were lots of good pieces here, but we just wanted to do a Veterans Day. And I can tell you right now, Christmas. Who knew Christmas? Alright? Get with it. Right? Yeah, Christmas is going to have
Starting point is 02:31:16 a Thanksgiving Day show, which we always work on Thanksgiving, even though we get no donations or any even kudos from anyone for working on a holiday like Thanksgiving. We'll be working on Christmas Eve. We work on Thanksgiving. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:31:31 And New Year's Day. We're going to post a Thanksgiving piece of art. Yeah. Yes. Yes, because we're trad podcasters, trad casters. Now, the other ones I liked in here I liked the little kid in the cockpit yeah I didn't
Starting point is 02:31:47 I know you liked it but it wasn't all that great I just thought it was cute stupid kid I also liked the kissing the capitalist agenda gas lit hearts the two people
Starting point is 02:31:57 with gas masks on trying to kiss that was nothing to do with the show no whatsoever no I did
Starting point is 02:32:05 it was good though it was pretty funny and I thought that was but I thought it was cute yeah anything else on here people try to do nut graphs that didn't
Starting point is 02:32:14 that didn't work no that really worked yeah the net thing it was a net graph who cares yes anyway thank you very much
Starting point is 02:32:21 to correct the record we appreciate it good to see you back on the board I mean you're on the board. I mean, you're on the board. Isn't he number one? Is he one of the number?
Starting point is 02:32:28 No, Nestworks is number one. Nestworks is way ahead of everybody. And I'm just looking already. We've got a lot of submissions, although possibly not anything we'll use yet. So there's plenty of opportunity for you artists to get in on this great opportunity. Chip in with your art at noagendaartgenerator.com.
Starting point is 02:32:47 You can always just follow along if you're listening to the show right now. Take a look at what we're talking about. Or our buddy Dreb Scott. He uses many of these pieces as chapter artwork in a modern podcast app, which, let's face it, you should be using because they also update within 90 seconds of us posting the show. If you don't use a modern podcast app, you can be waiting 90 minutes. And that includes Overcast and Pocket Casts and Apple. More than 90 minutes in some instances. Oh yeah. And people are like, hey man, you didn't upload to Apple. No, it's not how it works. It's not how it works. It's not how it works.
Starting point is 02:33:26 There's no uploading to Apple. We upload and all the apps get it. But we use Podping, a very sophisticated system developed by the geniuses at Podcasting 2.0. So get a modern podcast app. Now let us thank the people who sent us some treasure.
