They are freaked out. Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak. It's Sunday, December 3rd, 2023. This is your award-winning Gibbon Nation Media Assassination episode 1613. This is no agenda. Watching the real WEF and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA Region No. 6. In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.

And from Northern Silicon Valley, where everybody's saying the same thing. Go Niners. I'm John C. Dvorak. It's Crackpot and Buzzkill. In the morning. Nobody's saying that. Oh, yeah. Nobody cares about football.

That's all they say. Nobody's watching football anymore. No. So here's the question for you oh and ask adam or just a regular old no i just i'm just asking a random question all right so i'm listening to all these different shows and i heard this on the rising and i heard on different networks and it goes on and on about the death of sandra day o'connor and henry kissinger the two of them and she's all she's the best and hen Henry Kissinger was a famous.

He's the worst. Famous guy, but he's the worst. He killed millions and he's a war criminal. Yes. When was this? When did he kill millions? When did he kill anybody? Well, he's.

Why is he a war criminal? What did he do? What did he specifically do? Do you know? Because I tried looking it up. Yes, I do. I do. He died while being Jewish at the wrong moment.

This is the wrong moment. This is what happened. Oh, that could be it. Elon's kind of getting away with it. He's making problems for everybody. It's like we need another Jew to blame. There's no better Jew to blame than the dead jew who can't defend himself come on it's obvious anything to keep the genocide joe stuff out of the way

anything and they're going after everybody this was uh this was hilarious this is hillary clinton i even know where she's walking and there's's protesters. Yep, there they are, the Palestinian flags. You're supporting genocide! You're supporting genocide! Can't you see? Can't you see? You're supporting genocide! You're supporting genocide!

Hillary, Hillary, you can't hide! Hillary, Hillary, you can't hide! Hillary, Hillary, you can't hide! You're supporting genocide! You're supporting genocide! Hillary, Hillary, you can't hide. You're supporting genocide! What did Hillary do? Existed. Just existed. Existed.

She's not even Jewish, that I know of. No, but she's... Listen, this is so off the hook. This is exactly the counterbalance we needed in the world to have, you know, the people who have been abused by the elites, namely children, for the longest time to turn on them and they don't know what to do. And now, oh, this is so beautiful. Turkish radio and television, you know, they get on the TikTok and they got these, you know, cute young women who are, you know, even on the Turkish radio television homepage, these videos are filmed in portrait mode because they're intended for TikTok. So they don't even go on television, but they try and get them to go viral. And this is the kind of, you thought Elon Musk had a problem?

No, no, no, no, no. How are famous global brands involved in Israel's war on Palestine's Gaza? These brands directly helps the Israeli economy. An Israel economy is the fuel that feeds its military and allows it to bomb Gaza and carry out a genocide against the Palestinian people. So the idea is these brands, because they do business in or with Israel, they are fueling the genocide. The world's leading brands reach nearly every household around the globe. It is difficult to find a home in which at least one of these brands is not present.

In 2022 alone, these three companies earn more than 200 billion dollars procter and gamble has been part of the israel market since 2001 procter and gamble is almost yeah oh they've been part of the procter and gamble is a what we call fmcg fast moving consumer goods company yeah paper towels soap oh no they're fueling they're fueling the genocide now they have gained attention with a significant multi-million dollar investments in israeli medical companies and research centers this brand is so popular in israel that it is found in 98 percent of israeli households famous luxury brand lou Vuitton. They invested millions of dollars in Israeli diamond production companies,

which are the cornerstone of the Israeli economy. I didn't know that diamond production was the cornerstone of the Israeli economy. Did you know that? Well, I think we did a thing in the West recently.

I thought it was Russia. Russia. Yeah, Russia. Anyway, they are linked to the sale of Israeli Ahava products that are produced in the occupied Palestinian territories. The owner of Louis Vuitton is known for having made significant investments in Israeli security companies amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars.

Louis Vuitton, Louis, you're a problem. Next up is HP. According to the BDS movement, in addition to supplying technology to the Israeli army and police. HP. Microsoft is next. I'm telling you. Anything.

If you do business with Israel, you're going to be boycotted. Or at least you're going to be called out. I'm going to give a slightly different angle on this. Okay. Because there's something suspicious about the way this is being done. And the end result is what I saw today. I was watching a little previews of some of the football, and they cut to a Bud Light commercial.

And the Bud Light commercial is a bar full of dudes with Peyton Manning, the old-time spokesperson for ex-football players, Emmitt Smith, and some other hot shots, they have to pay these guys a fortune. He goes to the bar, orders Bud Light, and he says, I'll tell you what, let's have Bud Light for the whole bar. So they buy the bar, and Peyton manages throwing passes with the cans, which cans you can do with. And so he's throwing, and it's Bud Light. They had to pay this guy a boatload of money to do this. And this, all of this is going to result in heavy advertising to make up for the bad press. This seems almost like it's orchestrated by the media itself to extract more money from these poor companies in advertising.

Interesting. Interesting. Yeah. Yeah, it's, what's the, the UFC, the Dana White's outfit. Yeah. They also have a huge, like, $100 million deal or something with Bud Light. Yeah, it's costing nothing but money to get back on track, and that's going to be the same proctor

going after a proctor and gamble i mean who's really behind this this means they're going to have to advertise more than before that's a good point and boom you're gonna but it's a bonanza yeah okay i'll take your point i mean there's they're certainly jumping on it but hillary clinton can't advertise something if your brand has been besmirched yeah you gotta what can you do about you can go to the editors and say hey you guys have hurt our feelings you know we didn't do anything wrong we just do the stories the way they go here why don't you talk to this guy head of the advertising department this guy has brown shoes talk to him for a moment he take care of you. I take that as a good point.

I take that as a fair point. Fair point. Well, I would like to start today because it dawned on me after hearing Prince Charles speak at COP28. And I know you got a couple of clips as well. I'm going to lead you into them. That all this, oh, the World Economic Forum, oh, they're going to do the Great Reset. That is bull crap.

These guys, they're getting, I don't know if they'll do it with COP28 or if it's going to be COP29, but they are coming for you. They are coming for your money. They're coming with a global carbon tax. They're changing the quote-unquote global financial system.

They're pricing carbon. They're all in. They're getting closer. And it kind of hit me when I heard, this is something you won't hear at the World Economic Forum. Klaus Schwab, give me a break. No, when you address this audience like this. Your Highness, Secretary General,

Your Majesties, Your Royal Highnesses, Presidents, Prime Ministers, Ministers, ladies and gentlemen. Rattle your jewels, please. I would like to extend... Wow, that's a great clip. I mean, these are

the people who make stuff happen. They make things happen. Not those... I'm going to call you Your Royal Highness from now on. Yes, Your Excellency. Ministers, ladies and gentlemen, I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to

His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed al-Nakhiyan. This is not, you know, the Saudis weren't royal until the 70s. You know, they were Bedouin sheep farmers. And now, oh, Your Highness, Your Royalty, thank you so much. For his warm invitation to speak to you at the opening of COP28. you with the opening of COP 28. Eight years ago, I was

most touched to be asked to speak at the opening of COP 21 in Paris. I was so touched. Which, of course, culminated in the Paris Agreement. A landmark moment of hope and optimism when nations put differences

to one side for the common good. I pray with all my heart that COP28 will be another critical turning point towards genuine transformational action at a time when already, as scientists have been warning for so long, we are seeing alarming tipping points being reached. More than tipping points, plural. Yes, alarming. Now, by the way, isn't, he says eight years ago,

but isn't it seven years ago when it's COP21? You have COP21, then 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, seven years ago. It's not eight years ago. Well, that's Miranoka. Who cares? Who cares? I do. Let's get to the money. Because if they can't do the math of just going back 8 years or 7 years, how can they

tell us what's going to happen with the climate 100 years from now? Well, he does this. You're right. You're correct. 4 trillion, 5 trillion. A small difference. Public finance alone will never be sufficient. No! But with the private sector firmly at the table...

Soak the companies and the public. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. This is coming. This is coming. Firmly at the table. It hasn't come yet. Huh?

What? I say, yeah, it might be coming, but it hasn't come yet. We can still fight it. And a better, fairer international financial system combined with the innovative use of risk reduction. Tools like first loss risk guarantees. Stop. What is he talking about? I looked it up.

I bet you did. With tools, tools, tools like. Tools like first loss risk guarantees. First loss risk guarantees. This is a type of insurance. First loss policy is a type of property insurance policy that provides only partial insurance in the event of a claim, the policyholder agrees to accept an amount less than the full value of a damaged, destroyed, or stolen property.

And what's the benefit in that? In return, the insurer agrees not to penalize the policyholder for under-insuring their goods or property. So, I'm not exactly sure. Wait a minute. I'm not exactly sure, a minute i'm not exactly sure but there's something about and we have enough boots on the ground people who can explain to me how they're using this insurance clear insurance scam but i just don't know how it works yet but they're going to use this somehow to soak everybody for him to to say this, something's up.

I agree. You don't bring something like this in out of the blue to a conference like this and state it as some sort of tool. Oh yeah. We could mobilize the trillions of dollars we need. How many? In the order of four and a half to five trillion a year to drive the transformation we need. A year? A year! How many? A year? A year! A year!

A year. Four and a half to five trillion. Isn't that... Isn't that the GDP of the United States? I think that's where... I mean, is that a coincidence? The entire GDP a year year our entire economy per year what uh-huh well it's let's continue to listen secondly how could we ensure that finance flows to those developments most essential to a sustainable future well first of all we set

up businesses in africa and we just wait for the money boat to come in. And then we pretend we're helping the black people in Africa. Duh! And away from practices that make our world more dangerous. Yes, yes. Dangerous to me because they will want to kill me if I'm still in the West. Across every industry in every part of the world. Oh, yeah. I have, for instance, been heartened by some of the steps

taken by parts of the insurance sector, which plays such a vital role in incentivizing more sustainable approaches and providing an invaluable source of investment to reduce the risks we face. Okay, I think that they're going to run the money through insurance companies. Insurance companies are just banks.

I mean, it's not anything special, right? It's just a bank, and if they get a claim, what insurance companies typically do is, no, I'm not going to pay you. That's the first thing they say. So I think that somehow they are going to run the money through the insurance companies. I'm not quite sure how yet. But the first thing that has to happen was addressed by Queen Ursula, who is not the queen of the dancing scene in this one. She only got a short little bit on the big stage.

And then, oh, man, she had her own little side session, which, the audio she even said oh the audio is no good i couldn't even clip it it was so bad so she she was completely marginalized in this but she came and she said what she's supposed to what she did wrong that would this would happen she's she's a failed politician from germany her job is to do what they tell her to do and they said you ursula make sure you focus on the one point and drive it home. The future of energy will be clean. It will be affordable and it will be homegrown. Homegrown fuel. And finally, on finance, we must meet the 100 billion target this year. Europe consistently delivered. Last year, the European Union contributed close to $30 billion in public

climate finance. And of course, the European Union will contribute to the new loss and damage fund. Loss and damage fund. I'm telling you, John, they're doing something here. It's about insurance. It's this loss and damage. It's first loss policies. Something going on. As of today, Team Europe is contributing. Team Europe? Wait a minute. What today, Team Europe is contributing. Team Europe? Wait a minute. What's this Team Europe all of a sudden? Is it a soccer game?

I guess. The new loss and damage fund. As of today, Team Europe is contributing more than $270 million so far. What? We must get the fund up and running. Where's the $4 trillion? No, no, this is just this year. This year, Team Europe is behind. They must work harder, Team Europe. $270 million is nothing. No,

there's nothing. This is horrible. So far, we must get the fund up and running and we must do it fast. So they're doing a green fund. This is the first lost policy fund. They're going to do green bonds. But we all know more is needed. We need to reform the international financial system. Because we need a carbon tax. We need a strong green bond market. Green bond market.

And we need more carbon pricing there it is ladies and gentlemen thank you fellow leaders dear friends i wish for a successful cop 28 many thanks that's right there you go we need more carbon pricing carbon pricing so we can know exactly how much to tax you if you pollute then you will pay a tax and that somehow go we wash that through the insurance companies and we sit in africa and we steal it from you i i cannot see any other way these are the evil people of the world they have been captured and and we're so we've been so hammered by this incessant climate change that even people with reasonable thought patterns like well you know it was climate change and we that just it's not it's just a thing it's hard for

anyone to say no this is not true in germany as they're getting ready to fly their private there's no evidence that it was really flying their private jets but it's regardless cop 28 starts the world is boiling and munich sees the sees 44 inches of snow which they haven't seen ever it's record snowfall the planes can't take off okay have a clip oh good let's play did you get a the uk also is is completely snowed under now what do you get yeah weather bavarian blizzard it's called and a bavarian blizzard has dropped record snow amounts on much of germany austria the czech republic and switzerland the storm knocked out power to thousands installed travel across the region grounding flights burying highways and forcing mass transit to close uh two more clips

and i'm gonna lead right into your clips, because I've seen the title, so I know more or less what you're going to do. The first thing is we have to play something by the United Nations Secretary General, who is a troll. He might even be wearing a wig, this guy. He's a little troll, and he always cracks me up with his pronunciation of things. He does it on purpose. I don't know no well maybe maybe it's day two at cop 28 in dubai and the calls for urgent action continue we cannot save a burning planet we have fire holes of planet wait you're missing the beauty

continue we cannot save a burning planet via firehose of fossil fuels. We cannot save a burning planet with a firehose of fossil fuels. Fossil fuels is what it is, you fossil fuels. Via firehose of fossil fuels. We must accelerate a just, equitable transition to renewables. Renewables. The science is clear. The science is clear.

No, it's not. It's clear. It's clear. The science is clear. The 1.5 degree limit is only possible if we ultimately stop burning all fossil fuels. Stop burning the fossil fuels. Stop it. But it's not going to stop at fossil

fools no it's going to go to fossil food fossil fuels normally get the most attention at the annual climate summit but on friday there was a breakthrough on another crucial part of tackling climate change what we eat more than 130 countries including the u.s. eu you can even hear the bug sound effect in the report you hear the crickets in the report it's this is subliminal they're giving you cricket sounds because that's what you'll be given to eat what we eat more than 130 countries including the u.s eu brazil and china have signed an agreement aiming to make food production more sustainable it's the first agreement of its kind and could be a very important one.

The world's food system is responsible for one third of greenhouse gas emissions and 15% of fossil fuel, with huge amounts of food wasted in some countries, as well as overconsumption of industrial produced meat and processed foods. For many campaigners, small-scale farmers in local communities are a key part of the solution key part of the solution so they've signed some deal we don't know what it is but i'm gonna guess it's bugs and then we have our vice president because if you're gonna have queen ursula you might as well bring in queen Kamala. Around the world, there are those who seek to slow or stop our progress. Like podcasters. Leaders who deny climate science, delay climate action,

and spread misinformation. Podcasters. Corporations that greenwash climate inaction and lobby for billions of dollars in fossil fuel subsidies. Uh-huh. In the face of their resistance and in the context of this moment, we must do more. Yeah. Harris also announced the U.S. is pledging $3 billion to the Green Climate Fund. The international fund is dedicated to supporting climate action in developing countries. the biden administration outlined plans today to reduce u.s methane emissions the cbc susan ormiston is in dubai with more on the progress being made i'm going to stop it here

because i saw that you had methane clips so when that popped up when that popped up and of course you understand these things you know a lot about few fools fossil fools fools fools from your time in the government as a uh as a horrible government worker in an administrative state yeah deep state you are you are in a deep state what are you gonna do nothing so um first let's go back to uh this nonsense about and i maybe maybe there's something I don't know, but this idea of, they always keep using this, Harris said it in there about

oil subsidies. Yes. What subsidies, what? What are they? What are these subsidies for the oil industry? If I recall, there is, and it's not just for oil companies, there is a U.S. production tax benefit. There's an oil depletion allowance. That's the big tax break.

I buy an oil well. It's worth a million dollars because there's a million dollars worth. As I pump the oil out out it becomes slowly worthless i get an oil depletion allowance a tax benefit for for that because now that now my asset has become worth nothing uh-huh after i pumped all the and sold all the oil so you get to depreciate your million dollar initial investment well you i don't know how what the exact how the math works but it's but that's i think what they're always talking about and of course if you eliminate that it's not going to stop anything it's just going to jack up the price of gasoline yeah which now is

275 for regular here in texas so we can we can handle some 550 well now By the way, the curious thing about our being 5.50, it's also an oil production state. We produce oil in this state. The good news is... And we have most of the refineries in this state. Wednesday, I'm having dinner with the oil baron, so I'll get a full breakdown of exactly this topic. Good. Because he has oil wells, so that'll be easy. Dude, what's your tax benefit he'll tell me

yeah yeah he'll tell you and it's probably a pretty good deal i mean that's one of the reasons it was done to encourage people to get this oil out of there may i remind you oil baron okay so yeah i'll bet it's a pretty good deal. So let's go to COP 28. I think we'll go with the first to start with the Harris stuff I have. This is COP 28. One Harris PBS. At the United Nations COP 28 climate conference in Dubai, Vice President Harris pledged three billion dollars toward a global fund to help poorer nations adapt to climate change. The United States also committed to doubling energy efficiency

and tripling the use of renewable energy by 2030. Harris said the time for action is now. The urgency of this moment is clear. The clock is no longer just ticking. It is banging. It's banging. And we must make up for lost time. And we must treat the climate crisis

as the existential threat that it truly is. Who says banging? Banging. The clock is banging. Banging. No, she was very explicit on the banging. Isn't it just banging? Yeah, she said banging.

Yeah, why not just say banging? What is that? Banging. Banging. Banging. Well, she's got that. She has some South Asian accent actually buried in there. Okay.

All right. Banging. Banging. Banging. Okay, we wrapped that? Yeah, that's wrapped. Yeah, she wrapped it. Oh, okay. Well, she's done yakking away. Yeahanging. Banging. Okay, we wrapped that? Yeah, that's wrapped. Yes, you wrapped it. Oh, okay.

Well, she's done yakking away. So let's go to COP28-2 methane. COP28-2 methane. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I got you. I got you. Officials also announced a major new initiative aimed at getting methane emission to near zero by 2030. Okay. Now, methane emission, I know one part of methane is burning off your gas wells. Is

that talking about that in this case or something else? It's hard to say what they're talking about. I think they're talking mostly about refineries leaking. And cow farts. Methane. No, they're not talking about the cow. It's mostly belches, it turns out. Oh, okay. Because they're ruminants and they belch the methane out of their mouth. The

problem with this whole thing, and I'll put this right up front, is that natural gas is methane. They won't say natural gas. They just keep saying methane, methane. So you can't, I mean, if you turn your stove on, you're leaking methane all over the place. That's methane.

Got it. Natural gas is 97% methane. So this is a roundabout way, this whole methane thing is a roundabout way, and I would say a chicken shit way, of getting rid of gas stoves, gas furnaces, and gas heaters. You know, it's a shame that Boone Pickens isn't still alive because he was the big promoter of natural gas as an alternative to liquid petroleum products. And he would throw a bunch of money at this nonsense and end it right now because you can't do what they want to do without getting rid of your gas stoves. Even though they don't want to talk about it.

Oh, no, no. We never said anything about gas stoves. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. We're just trying to stop. This is very interesting. It's not about gas. It's not about gas. This is very interesting.

This is a scam. it's a total scam if anything people are very aware of the war on gas stoves um you know then everyone denies it no no no we're not doing that that's not true yeah but but now they've just done a little switcheroo and they just call it methane or dare i say methane in the uk yeah methane methane uh but they're lying they're lying they're really saying no more no more cheap energy because methane gas natural gas is quite affordable um i think it's quite safe am i not is it's quite safe well unless it accumulates in a house and then someone lights a match. Yeah, it's safe. It's safe compared to almost everything.

It's been around for a long time. It's safer than hydrogen. Let's put it that way for sure. Yes. Yes, I agree. All right. So we have to get rid of it. Got it.

But this is exactly what you said. It's a scam. And here we go. And this is the methane series. Now, this is COP28 Methane One. At the COP28 summit in Dubai today, 50 oil and gas companies representing about 40 percent of global production pledged to reduce methane emissions to near zero by 2030. Methane is a byproduct of oil and gas production that can trap 80 times as much heat as carbon dioxide in the short term.

The companies, including industry giants like ExxonMobil, Shell and BP, say they'll achieve this by plugging leaks at their facilities and ending the practice of burning off excess gas with flares. At the same time, the Biden administration announced new rules to enforce major elements of that agreement in this country. Ah, there it is. There's your war on gas stoves now a couple of things in this clip uh he says that 80 what was it 80 uh methane is 80x in terms of uh greenhouse gas emissions 80x co2 yeah well how come this hasn't been addressed before? We're always talking about carbon, carbon, carbon, carbon, and referring to CO2, CO2, CO2, which is a parts per million thing in the atmosphere. It's hardly anything. But they keep talking about it. But meanwhile, methane, why now?

Does it have very low carbon dioxide emission? What? I'm sorry? Does burning natural gas have a low... It's lower than burning coal. Yeah, that's what T. Boone Pickham was always doing. Yeah, lower than coal, lower than a lot of

stuff. So it's not a good narrative. Well, this ADX, this is raw methane going into the atmosphere. And then he says that the refineries are getting... Now, the refineries, one thing that's never mentioned is methane is a product they sell as natural gas. They don't want it leaking all over the place. They're giving away product. It's like letting the wine barrel overfill and going down the sewer.

This is not what they want. So this is in the best interest of the oil refiners to plug any leaks there are. So they're always for that. So this is not a concession by any means because they want to do this because they lose money otherwise. So this is bullcrap, this narrative. Well, how about this? So maybe they're like, yeah, that's good. Give us some subsidies so we can plug up our leaky stuff.

I believe that's in the background. I'm sure there's something. Is there also not an element of F Russia in all of this, since Russia has a lot of natural gas? I didn't think of that, but that's obviously the case. And so you have that aspect. And the other thing is, and then the refiners are going to try to stop flaring so much. Natural gas, when it gets into the system and they had to get rid of it, they sent it to the flare.

But when it gets burned in the flare, it gets burned. There's no natural gas coming off that flame. No. So that's bull crap. And that's just bull crap. OK, just they just go after. OK, OK, I got you. OK, it's bull crap to go off.

But again, I think the whole thing is about the stoves. But let's go with methane, too. Earlier, I spoke with Fred Krupp, the president of the Environmental Defense Fund, who was at COP 28. I asked him, what makes this deal so important? John, I've been at this for a long time, and in my 30-plus years of doing this work, I don't think we've ever had as good a day for the climate as we had today. First, we had the U.S. EPA announcing the strongest methane rules for the oil and gas sector on the planet. Second, we had 50 companies representing 40% of global oil production, pledging to virtually eliminate their methane pollution. And then

third, we saw an announcement from the U.S. and China that they've agreed to incorporate methane in the future into their pledges internationally. And methane, John, is 80 times more powerful as a greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide pound for pound in those first 20 years. And so reductions now that will happen as a result of these three actions mean that storms will be less ferocious, temperatures will be lower than they would otherwise be over the next 10 years. Thanks to the actions that were pledged today. Storms will be less ferocious, said the weatherman. Over the next 10 years, because of this one action, which is meaningless, this meaningless action, which isn't going to do jack until they get rid of the stoves and heaters.

But now here's the problem they had. Like, the hurricane season just ended. What was the big, massive hurricane on the East Coast that took out, like, half of a state and killed millions? What was the big storm this year? Yeah, carry on. Well, there was a bad storm on the little piece of Florida, on the Gulf side, interestingly.

But it didn't take out millions of people. It wasn't like the big storms, like Katrina. No, no. Which was- But if you recall when Katrina happened, this was going to be the standard of excellence every year, and it's going to get worse and worse. What was this year's big storm? It was that little storm you're talking about.

But this is the problem. The problem is people don't look at history they're not taught history they're told to just oh just listen listen to me listen to me this is the worst and it's coming from our so-called leaders so people go okay because people have other things to do like figure out how to pay the rent now let's go back to this guy and his commentary this is right here what he said this meaningless methane bull crap which isn't going to do jack is going to be used as well we since we passed this this is the big deal we passed it at cop 28 and look that we didn't have so many hurricanes it's already

starting to clear up a little bit they need because the cycle the weather cycle is based on sunspots, is switching onto the other, going down the other way, and they've got to come up with some reason. Quick. A quick fix. And this guy just told you what it was. Wait, wait, wait. They need the quick fix

so they can then take credit for it. Yeah. See? Storms are less. Temperature's coming down. Thanks to us we're not phone finger number one everybody that's right so we can predict in 10 years that everything will be much calmer it'll be cold it'll be cold it's going to be cold it's going to get cold it's going to get very cold everybody let's go maybe maybe hold on maybe that's what King and Charles meant by tipping point. Where's the tipping point, people?

Tipping points. Tipping points. And the tipping point is that temperatures are going down. Everything's going down because the sun cycle... What is it? What cycle is it? I forget. They number them.

Every 11 years, we go through the sun cycle. I know it. As a ham operator, you know these things. So we're going down to the bottom of the cycle. I think we have two more years left, and it's over and then we yeah we did it we did it everybody we're in africa now send us our trillions and then you will send us our trillions so we can make sure we don't we don't backtrack exactly okay methane three and is this a long-term solution to the problem is this a sort of short-term quick fix?

Well, we have to both do methane to reduce temperatures in the short term, and we cannot stop working. In fact, we have to accelerate our work on eliminating carbon dioxide. The oil and gas industry took this one step, but they have to do a lot more than this. We have to move away from reliance or dependency on fossil fuels as quickly as we can but while we're still using them we have to eliminate this very powerful greenhouse gas methane okay so from the national weather surface surface surface surface surface we are two years away from the top of sun of solar cycle 25 the peak will be expected solar maximum july 2025 so there is that's the peak of solar cycle 25 so that's that's why the you know hurry up

yeah find some panicky thing we can do. Yeah. All right. Here we go. This is the last of these clips. This agreement is voluntary. The oil companies have to do what they promise to do. And a lot of environmental groups don't like that.

They say there's no accountability mechanism or guarantee the companies will follow through. What do you say to that? Well, I think it's good to be skeptical of pledges at the COP. A lot of pledges that have been made at this conference of the parties year after year aren't delivered on. In this particular pledge, we structured it to have accountability built in. So the oil and gas companies are agreeing to report their emissions by monitoring them and then sending them to an international independent third party. In addition to that, the Bloomberg Philanthropies today announced a major $25 million gift to not only the Environmental Defense Fund, but it will stand up an accountability partnership that will make data transparent.

And so we'll be able to see exactly who is meeting this pledge and who's not. So I've heard it four times now. The Environmental Defense Fund. Yeah, that's this guy. He's the head of it. But is this, well, is that a global thing? I think it's American. Seems like it's New York. 9013C, whatever it is it is that a global thing i think it's american seems like it's new york 3c whatever it is seems like it's new york based might be founded in 1967 so yeah that's good you know

it was founded during the it was that was found if i'm not mistaken, the Environmental Defense Fund was founded during the heyday of anti-pollution, real pollution activity. 1967, a group of scientists forms the organization, sets out to ban DDT. Oh, it was the DDT. That's right. It was a DDT thing. It came out of Rachel Carson's bestseller, Silent Spring, which is really about DDT. Then in 1970 it was efforts to ban

whale hunting. Remember that one? Oh yeah. Which was an attack on Japan as far as I can remember. Horrible Japanese killing whales. I got this one minute 22 second clip.

I forget where I got this from. And it's a brief history. Before you go, I want to comment on the last. Okay. Yeah. So this, I just want to, this is a refinery story. Having worked at a refinery in the lab. And I, this is, I don't think they're evil by any means.

I like refiners. I think they're evil by any means i like refiners i think they're all great but i'm this this is the way reporting goes we have to do a monthly coliform test of the effluent that comes off of the refinery uh water supply and it goes and you get a sample and then you do this little test and it's for it's called coliform and it's a type of bacteria it's a bacterial test, and it's called coliform, and it's a type of bacteria. It's a bacterial test, and if it shows up, that means you've got contamination in the water that's going into the San Francisco Bay. And it would go like this, which means there's sewage in there.

I don't know how it even gets in there, but it will get in there. And it's a little elaborate test. It's kind of a pain in the ass. It's got nothing to do with the refinery at all, but you have to do this test. So you do the test, and you do this test once a month, I think, as I recall. And you do the test once a month, and you do the test, and it goes, oh, shit, we got coliform.

And then you go, well, or somebody says, okay, we'll do the test tomorrow. Yeah. It came out okay. Okay, send that one in. Oh, so you just take whatever's handy. You take the test that passes. Nice. And that's how you do it.

And I'm not, no one's going to convince me that that's not the way it's done everywhere by everybody because it's like bull crap test to begin with. Because in fact, you take the test every day of the month and it would be 90 or about 25 days of no problem. And then maybe there's a day in there. So it's kind of like something happened. It's kind of like a COVID test. Yeah. So the Environmental Defense Fund, indeed, a 501c3. So the Environmental Defense Fund, indeed, a 501c3.

How much do you think they were given in 2022, according to their Form 990? $100 million. How about $385 million? They have $452 million in assets, you know, because they play the stock market of course and their mission is to build a vital earth for everyone by leveraging environment oceans health environment health public health children leveraging children fine here's a brief history of this cop outfit, because it started a long time ago, and we're still not dead. General Boutros Ghali.

The Earth Summit in Rio was the first time that more than 100 heads of state and government gathered together in one room to talk climate, establishing sustainable development as a basis for international cooperation, at least in theory. The world is our garden, and together we must cultivate it. Five years later, the Kyoto Protocol was signed.

Developed countries pledged to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions by at least 5% compared to 1990 levels. One big problem, the world's biggest emitters, the US, China and India, were not bound by the text. In 2009, the aim of COP15 in Copenhagen was an international agreement to fight climate change. Although the US and China helped draft a last-minute joint statement, it was not widely adopted. The 2015 edition in France was considered a resounding success. The Paris Agreement was the first treaty to commit the entire international community to the fight against climate change,

pledging to maintain the rise in the global average temperature to, quote, well below two degrees compared to pre-industrial levels. Signatories also agreed to assess their efforts every five years eight years on the un says much more must be done to meet the goals set in paris so to just wrap this part up these are the real people who are doing a an actual slow global reset it is really happening they are going to price carbon every action you take as a human being, it'll start with businesses. The businesses, they get some deal. I'm sure this insurance scam somehow works.

Someone's going to tell us how that works. Business will get some insurance payoff. But ultimately, it's going to come from the individual humans. But you travel. You're going to be charged for your poop. Yes. How much do you poop? That's right.

You're going to be, if you're a big pooper, then sorry, Anderson Pooper is going to be poor in the future. So it's just going to be everything you do, there will be a climate tax. That's why they're pricing carbon. And we only have to look from Texas a little bit up to the north to see that this is in play in Canada. And it was and they're joking about it.

Do you have a Trudeau and Paul Levy air the two sides of the political spectrum laughing about it? Now, what what happened here is they were jamming a carbon tax into aid for Ukraine, I believe. Yeah, right. And the classic and the conservators went no no no we're not we're not gonna we're not gonna pass this with that thing in it but it's all just a big joke to them denialism of the conservative party of canada is putting future white christmases at risk and that's why on this side of the house, we stand for Christmas. Yeah, what a clown show. It's a clown show. It's a clown show.

Hold on. The Honorable Leader of the Opposition. Mr. Speaker, that has to be the angriest and most caustic Christmas message I've ever seen. angriest and most caustic Christmas message I've ever seen. No, this is a guy, he hasn't phased out coal despite his theatrics over there, Mr. Speaker. What he's doing is phasing out food because Canadians can't afford it. Now, as he raises carbon taxes on the wonderful farmers that bring us, bring it to our table. Why won't he ax the tax on farmers so that Canadians can eat, heat, and house themselves? And why doesn't he be a little less like Scrooge and a little more like Santa Claus? So if we make it another 10 years, I would say sketchy likelihood at best,

we will be talking about bug recipes on this very podcast because they're doing it this is the while we're all arguing about klaus schwab and although i like it's funny the uh the klaus schwab songs and everything it's funny i love the klaus schwab material i mean it's funny but it's very funny but it's really the wrong thing these are the people and this is huge the amount of people who are in these cop meetings and they're living it up i mean and they're flying around they're doing around their private pierre came in there of all places dubai which is a long haul for anyone to go to. It's a great trip. Pierre flew in special, special, you know, to do everybody's hair. Look, I know women and hair.

Queen Ursula's hair was done. So either she had her personal hairdresser fly with her or Pierre was there waiting for her. How about a wig? She's actually bald. No, no, no. This is no wig. This is no wig. This is no wig. You know, she, I believe, may be responsible for a huge, huge loss,

you know, theft, maybe, of money with the Pfizer deals, which she did on her own phone. Of course, you know, we can't show those text messages. There's no records. I mean, there's no, yeah, exactly. There's no records. These people are stealing from our children's future. They're stealing from our future.

Our immediate future. We don't have much future left and they're stealing from it. But meanwhile, let's all feel good by stories like this. And finally tonight, the new technology that could redefine what it means to go electric. Here's Maggie Vespa. By the way, nothing funnier than having a reporter work on climate change and electrified cars whose name is Vespa. Are you kidding me now?

Vespa the scooter. Vespa, really? Electric. Here's Maggie Vespa. On its list of claims to automotive fame. Okay, here we go. Detroit can add America's first electric avenue. The battery was at 66%.

We've been driving a few minutes, and now it's at 68%. Woo! Exactly. A public road able to wirelessly charge EV batteries as they drive over asphalt. The technology is under our feet. Like it's under the surface of the road. Literally. The secret?

Rubber-coated copper coils embedded in the road that correspond with a special receiver under the vehicle. The technology developed by Israel-based Electrion, who touts similar projects in several countries, including Sweden, where NBC's Kelly Kobiea got a look last year. So we're being charged right now. We are being charged. Tell me why this is safe. This is perfectly safe. This system is only active when you have a validated vehicle with the receiver. Validated. The price tag for the project to ultimately cover one mile of road, just under six million dollars, according to state officials who say the

costs will plummet as they expand and in the next few years, license receivers to the public. Could you see this actually being used broadly? I can. Yes. We want to get rid of this myth of range of guiding. You want to know that when you get to a location you're able to charge your vehicle motor city once again hoping to lead the charge into america's future oh lead the charge the brilliant brilliantly written i tell you let's go have a beer now six million dollars by the way the potholes problem in this country eliminates even the closest concept. That concept is not doable. The potholes will eat into the charging grid that's under there. It doesn't electrocute someone.

It's ludicrous. And, you know, the price is obviously, I mean, it's crazy, of course. Six million dollars for one mile. But, and that's, you know, I'm sure, I'm just going to guess. Plus you have to have a meter on your car because you're not going to give you the electricity for free. No, and I'm just going to guess that, I don't know, maybe some venture capital company had something to do with this. You know, this is where your green money is going to. And, you know, right on cue with all of this, and I have to give it to him,

Elon Musk is a dynamite marketer. He knows what he's doing. I'm going to go cause a ruckus. I'm going to go cause a ruckus. And then the next day, I'm going to go cause a ruckus and go cause a ruckus. And then the next day I'm going to launch my Cybertruck. After two years of delays and production snags, Tesla has finally handed the first Cybertrucks over to customers. Tesla CEO Elon Musk says it has an extra safety feature. Why did you make it Bulletproof?

I'm like, why not? Do you want to, how tough is your truck? Bulletproof, he says. Elon Musk says the cheapest version of Cybertruck will cost just under $61,000. That's more than 50% over the price Musk floated when he announced the vehicle in 2019. Dude, we were supposed to be able to have our Teslas do taxi service three years ago if i recall correctly yeah he's a great bullshit artist yes but i mean he uses the momentum and he comes out with the cyber truck and oh the amount of just drooling over this thing drooling i mean it's not new we've seen this

truck before and he bashed it with a hammer, and it made a dent in it. No, it wasn't a hammer. It was a steel ball, and it broke the window, the so-called unbreakable window. So we know about this truck. It's uglier than sin, and there's a few floating around. People have seen them on the road. They're here and there. They're prototypes, I guess.

But, you know, this truck's going nowhere but yeah he gets all the publicity he needs and then they keep following up because they're looking for more stuff about elon elon elon and boom you get it's beautiful yeah he's a genius yeah i have to give him that now there are some transportation things that are very much under attack. And the first one is air travel. Now, we know that there's a shortage of pilots. We understand the issues. Unions keep striking. They want more money, particularly the cabin crew. And I'm not talking about cockpit, but cabin crew.

They really don't want you, as a human, to have a nice time flying around on vacation doing business they don't want it's ugly it's nasty you know you're polluting the world i mean they come up with stuff like this sir richard branson was in the mood to brag after making history his 787 flew from london to new york using 100 aviation. It's a blend of processed cooking oil, animal fat, and corn-based kerosene using 70% less carbon than normal flights, but Branson admits the fuel is in short supply and it's expensive, so there's a long way to go before this is streamlined. It costs more.

Never going to happen. It's never going to happen. Of course not. It costs more. And by the way, they have these. Significantly more. Significantly more. It costs a fortune. And it dirties the engines. Because it has to be re-refined, so it's like a And by the way, they have these... Significantly more. Significantly more. It costs a fortune.

And it dirties the engines. Because it has to be re-refined, so it's like a pain in the ass, and it stinks when you burn it. It dirties the engines. There's all kinds of stuff that does not make this a great deal at all. But Richard Branson, another great marketer, because that's really what he is. He's a great marketer. Got to give him that. He doesn't run Virgin.

He sold that great marketer. Got to give him that. He doesn't run Virgin. He sold that a decade ago. And then the final one, this has me somewhat concerned, although it runs right into our trans-Maoist agenda, where for years, the Federal Aviation Administration has only been hiring, has only been, has actually forced airlines to hire minorities, qualified or not. And now we're down to, I think, an actual crisis. I've been hearing a lot about this, and that's the following story. Tonight, disturbing new allegations and questions about the safety of American air travel. That was shocking.

According to the New York Times, over the past two years, multiple air traffic controllers have been reported for falling asleep on the job, others allegedly directing traffic under the influence of alcohol and illegal drugs. The Times reports one air traffic controller showed up to work drunk, joking about making big money buzzed, adding another controller routinely smoked marijuana during breaks, citing dozens of interviews and government documents not reviewed by NBC News.

The newspaper describes an overworked staff at times struggling with mental and physical health. As thousands of controllers retire, 77% of critical ATC facilities are understaffed, according to a recent government report. Shortages coming with serious close calls at U.S. airports also under scrutiny. 23 this year alone. The Air Traffic Controller's union writing, the article does not portray the professionalism and skill with which air traffic controllers

perform their complex and stressful duties every day. But both the union and faa acknowledge there are staffing issues something the faa says it is working to fix with so many lives at stake okay so i don't know the truth of it but i hear from a lot of atc personnel and they say we're pretty stressed um and I would like to say, I would like to offer, I don't know if being a pilot gives me any advantage, but if I can go train and pitch in on the weekend, I will. I don't smoke weed anymore.

But I think if you had a call out and said, hey, we have a shortage, but we'll accept everybody, not just gays, blacks, and women, Everybody, not just gays, blacks, and women, regardless of their capability and ability, this would not be a problem. Americans like air travel. We are an air travel country. So, I'm up for it. But I'm sure many other pilots who have private pilots, yeah, we'll pitch in. That's the American way, not this bull crap.

It's so tiring, these stories, so tiring. It's a good story. Yeah. All right, now there's been a debunking of a debunking of something that was debunked. Of a debunked, of a debunking of a debunking of something we didn't even cover because you in particular thought it was bullshit to begin with yes when i saw this video which is now many of you probably seen this the new zealand database admin whistleblower yeah yeah that's already a stretch already yes i i looked at the video and i was like you know and i now of course I clipped a minute of it just so we can talk about it.

But initially, I was like, this is not, this is not, you know, the whole thing had Brideon written all over it. Sorry. I was thinking BitChute. Right. Well, I was involved with building a project to help with implementing a vaccine payment system for our providers. It's called a pay-per-doll system. So it means that every time someone gets vaccinated, they get a payment for it as a provider.

And I helped build it. I implemented it. And when I was looking at the data, which is part of my job, I noticed some discrepancies with the date of death. People die within a week of being vaccinated. So what did you notice when you first started to look at this data as you were building it? Well, as soon as the system went live,

we noticed that people were dying almost straight away after being injected. So that sort of prompted my curiosity a bit. And so I dug a little deeper. I am a scientist by nature. I love science. It's my all-time favorite. I've got a master's degree in science.

I have a master's degree in science. I have a master's degree in science. Wouldn't that be a, by the way, would it be a master of science? Would you have a master's of science degree? When we say I've got a master's of science degree, you wouldn't get a master's degree in science. There's no such thing. There's no degree that you said master's of just science. It was stuff like this that made me go, eh, whatever. We'll see what comes of it.

Because I don't want to waste anybody's time. We're not the Tim Pool Show. Like, what? Because first of all, I think we already believe this. We already believe that the vaccine has caused much despair. I don't need to see any data per se, but now it's a story. And then, so you send me a sub stack, Igor's newsletter. It's pretty good, by the way, generally.

Generally, it's pretty good. And he says, I analyzed the leaked New Zealand whistleblower data and suggest to be wary of it. And he says, bad data, inconsistent story. I don't know this Igor. I mean, he's honestly, I did some research on this guy. I'm like, well, you know, he says he runs his own data. It appears the data looks legit, but there's big pieces missing from it. So you and I are kind of like, well, I think this maybe was just a bull crap story story. But then, Jimmy Dore has Steve Kirsch come on his show. Now, Steve Kirsch, actual Masters of Science, I believe, from MIT. He even has an auditorium at MIT named after him. He's done quite well.

What did he do? Did he make his money with the optical mouse? Was that his main claim to fame? No, I don't think that. I don't remember. He lives around here somewhere. I've contacted and talked to him a couple of times over direct mail. I've got his phone number.

And he's one of these guilt-ridden guys because he was a big promoter of the vaccine. Infoseek. The search engine Infoseek. Infoseek. Yeah. Infer of the vaccine. Infoseek. The search engine. Infoseek. Infoseek. No, Infoseek. I thought it was Infosek. No, the search engine. And then he had frame technology, which Adobe bought. He's been around. Yeah, he's a really sharp guy. But he seems to be a guy who's living a life of guilt because it seems that he promoted

the vaccine and then he discovered it was bullcrap this was bad and he turned it became a major major anti-covid vaccine guy yes major he did all right way beyond what we we just deconstruct news stories we don't take sides so this is now jimmy dore got him on right away i thought that was pretty good my point my point being that steve kirk you said he's a sharp guy there's no doubt about it he's a sharp guy so for him to go out on this limb he clearly believes in what he's saying. And I pulled a couple of clips from it. Well, I got the data. And I think I was the first person in the world outside of the whistleblower to get the data. So it got uploaded to my – I have a Wasabi server.

We need one of those, John. We need a Wasabi server. Whatever it is, I want one. And the data was uploaded in the November 9th. And the whistleblower asked me to keep it quiet until November 30th. And on November 30th, I had a speech in the MIT auditorium, the Kirsch auditorium. It's named after me. And they actually let me speak there because a student group was willing to sponsor my speaking there.

And they actually let me speak there because a student group was willing to sponsor my speaking there. But they couldn't find an MIT faculty member who was willing to sponsor me to speak about the truth about the COVID vaccines. But fortunately, a student group invited me. And so I spoke about this huge data dump from New Zealand. And they've confirmed that it is legitimate data from a legitimate source. And that data shows there's no way you can analyze this and come to any other conclusion other than the vaccines have killed massive numbers of people, about one in a thousand, which means the vaccines have killed 675,000 people in America and 13, about 13 million people worldwide.

All right. He has my attention and he's going to go into some by the, and by the way, on this show months and months and months ago, we had the one in a thousand number. Oh yeah. This is not necessarily new. None of this is new to us.

So this kind of leads me to believe that this data has been out for at least a month. People have had it. I'm sure Kirsch wasn't the only guy. Perhaps we have this controversy, dare I say, thrown into the ether so that it can be summarily dismissed by mainstream to say, nah, you know, these guys, nut job, master of science, whatever, Steve Kershaw, anti-vaxxer, maybe it's just been thrown into this, this Tumblr so that, you know, it can be dismissed as a bunch of nut jobs. Thank you. It's all the records in a particular database in the New Zealand ministry of

health. records in a particular database in the New Zealand Ministry of Health. So this is one third of all the vaccination records for New Zealand. And so with this data, which includes the death data and the date of birth, we can calculate everything we want to calculate in order to show whether the vaccines are safe and effective. There's only one way to do this calculation. And there's only one result of the calculation. And there's only one way to interpret the results of the calculation. And it shows massive numbers of people killed.

Effectively, 13 million people were killed by their governments worldwide and this data proves it now there are people who are skilled at gaslighting people and trying to convince them that this data shows something other than what it does so there he's saying looks like there could be some psyop going on that's how you know the curry devorek consulting group analyzes everything is yeah we do so then he's going to go into the analysis of the data because this is not a new analysis that's been done as you just said we had this information the correct way to analyze this data is to do a time series cohort analysis which is the most sophisticated analysis that's available for data like this. This is what the epidemiologists use. This is what the UK Office of National Statistics use

to prove the vaccines are safe and effective. So it's a known technique. It's generally accepted in the community, and it's the most sophisticated technique. And it was only the UK ONS which used the sophisticated technique. And, of course, their data was very flawed. But even then, it still showed the same signal as in the New Zealand data, and we see the same signal in the U.S. Medicare data, which is all gold standard data. So you have the UK, New Zealand, and the United States of America all showing the same result, which is you take these vaccines and your risk of dying the next day is higher than it was the day before. And it keeps going up and up and up.

So this to me is a very level-headed dissection or analysis of the data because we were promised safe and effective we know effective fell by the wayside this right away the safe side is what's in question so you know the entire um the entire reason i believe for this to be so controversial is to make it dismissible by government agencies because they are hiding it as witness in his third and final clip. So for dose two, for example, in the United States of America, we have the Medicare data that proves this. In the United States of America, you take dose two, your risk goes up every single day for 365 days in a row. And it goes up at the end of 365 days.

It's climbed by 26% over baseline, 26% over baseline. It should be falling by 4% because this is Medicare data. And the Medicare mortality is about 4% per year. So this data when you you look at these people who've been vaccinated um with with dose two and you take them and you look at how they die over time there should be like four percent of them should die over a period of uh of 12 months and what we're finding is an accelerated death rate that is about, it's 30% differential from the 4% it's supposed to go down. So there's no doubt about it.

You can't have the death curve march up in a straight line for 12 months without any fluctuations whatsoever. It is like clockwork. It is the most beautiful graph I have ever seen. And I just got it recently from a whistleblower inside of Health and Human Services because the CDC doesn't disclose this data. They have the data. The CDC has access to this Medicare data with vaccines and deaths. They refuse to analyze it. So long live the dude's name, Ben. They're not all as articulate like our boy there in New Zealand because it didn't come out right and he didn't find the right partner to blow the whistle with. But I i like steve kirsch the way he talks about this analysis i think sounds good particularly if you add to it this one minute clip from the gold

standard peter mccullough the man cannot be taken down because of his credentials who said this just this last week now enter the vaccines since 2021 the vaccines have ravaged the population in the world. Worldwide, two-thirds of people took a vaccine. The United States COVID community state study shows 75% of Americans took a vaccine. Thankfully, 25% didn't. I was the only public health and public figure in the United States in writing to question the vaccines before they came out. And I did it as loudly as I could. The COVID-19 vaccines in the United States, 94% of Americans took a messenger RNA vaccine.

It is the genetic code for the potentially lethal spike protein part of the virus. It was the worst idea ever to install the genetic code by injection and allow unbridled production of a potentially lethal protein in the human body for an uncontrolled duration of time. Everything we've learned about the vaccine since they've come out is horrifying so to to be clear i certainly don't think everybody who was vaxxed is going to die there's no evidence of that but anecdotally and you and i just talked about this the other day and i'm going to go into all of our i'm going to do that after i get back from Indianapolis. It'll be next, maybe Thursday show. I am going to take a look at the increase in producers who have in their notes mentioned friends or spouses dying and the amount of cancer karma requests.

You and I anecdotally have seen these go up yeah tripled yes well you're saying tripled I'm going to get the actual number so there's that but will this ever really be discussed at the level it should be no doubtful doubtful

why would it be it's an embarrassment Steve Kirsch added in a in a slash today that's what you do on X you slash No. Doubtful. Doubtful. Why would it be? It's an embarrassment. Steve Kirsch added in a slash today. That's what you do on X, you slash. Slash? Yeah, I call it a slash. It's formally known as tweet.

You slash on X. You can now sue the mRNA COVID vaccine manufacturers for damages, and the FDA is required to take the COVID vaccines off the market. Why? Adulteration, which we talked about. The plasmid bioactive contaminant sequences were not pointed out to the regulatory authorities. It is considered adulteration. He says he got off the phone with his lawyers and he says that you can sue.

I'm sure that there are already lawsuits in the making. Yeah, there's plenty. For what good it'll do. None. No, probably not. It's a concerted effort by the making. Yeah, there's plenty. For what good it'll do. None. No, probably not. It's a concerted effort by the media at the very top of the pyramid and the government. Yes.

And the media is still, I can turn on the TV right now and hear somebody tell, oh, get a shot, get a COVID, get a COVID shot, another COVID shot's good for you. And it never ends. In fact, what did I read? I read the other day, you know, we had the triple-demic last year.

This year, they're talking about, I don't have a clip of it yet. We're waiting for the first one to pop up. Syndemic. S-Y-N. Syndemic. What's that mean? Well, I guess that's more than three. Syndemic.

Let me see if it's popped up anywhere yet. By the way, I wanted to get back to this. We were talking about the cop thing. Do you know what cop stands for? Don't look it up. Citizens on patrol? Exactly. I knew that.

Obsendemic. Obsendemic. that syndemic syndemic syndemics model of health focuses on the bio-social complex which consists of interacting co-present or sequential diseases and the social environmental factors oh yes climate change that's not going to catch you climate change is

killing us no I know what it's doing it stands for conference of the Parties. Oh, interesting. What does that even mean? Well, the parties are having a party. You're in Dubai. Believe me, you're going to be partying. It's a conference of partying.

Yeah, well, that makes sense. And meanwhile, we have a new term, finally, for this China thing. Well, there's a health warning out of Ohio this week after a rise in childhood pneumonia cases. Some are calling it white lung syndrome. We're going to get to that in just a second, what exactly that is. I want to talk to Dr. Florin with Lurie Children's Hospital about this. He is in charge of a pediatrician. He's a pediatrician at Lur Laurie Children's Hospital about this. He is in charge of a pediatrician.

He's a pediatrician at Laurie Children's Hospital. So it seems like at least around here in our newsroom and all my friends, I feel like everybody's been sick, not just for like a week or two, but they have this sort of lingering cough that seems to last for weeks. Wait for it. Listen, there's something coming up that I clipped just for you. The whole reason for this clip, you're just going to talk over it and cough. I play these, I'm not playing. I only play these.

I am mum. I play these clips for you. I'm not playing it for anybody. All my clips are for you. They have this sort of lingering cough that seems to last for weeks. Is it something out of the ordinary or is this something that happens sort of every year

and we're just sort of overreacting to it this time around? Yeah, no, it's a great question. think yeah no brother yeah no it's a great question it doesn't get any better than that yeah no it's a great question the only thing missing was yeah no it's a great question look we're reacting to it this time around yeah no it's a great question i think we're all hypersensitized after what we experienced. Anyway, this is why. So it is interesting that it's Ohio. As we know, Ohio has direct flights from China. So maybe they brought over some white lung syndrome. And that, of course, has led some Republicans to take a well-known step in these types of operations. A health alert tonight. Both of Florida's U.S. senators urging the White House to stop travel to and from China.

Senators Marco Rubio and Rick Scott are among several Republican lawmakers warning about a mysterious respiratory illness they say is spreading in the Asian country. They sent a letter to President Joe Biden today saying in part that travel should immediately be restricted, quote, until we know more about the dangers posed by this new illness yeah lock them down lock them down lockdowns coming lockdowns and now a clip that is pulled specifically because you know a lot about this dr mandy cohen assured lawmakers yesterday that a new virus is not causing the surge listen to this We do not believe this is a new or novel pathogen. We believe this is all existing, meaning COVID, flu, RSV.

CNN chief medical correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta joins us now. Sanjay, good morning. Always good to have you on. What could be behind this and how concerned should people be? One thing that appears to be complicating things, especially in China, is also bacterial infections. They seem to be a large part of what's driving this as well. And they have a lot of antibiotic resistance in China. So this is something that we're really keeping an eye on. If you look at deaths associated with antibiotic resistance around the world, it's close to 5 million a year. People may not realize that big. In China alone, 600,000. So this is also, I think, further complicating things with regard to this uptick. They're likely to get it under control, but they got to keep an eye on this

problem. I mean, you know, in China, for example, many antibiotics are sold over the counter. So that just sort of fuels the problem. There's also a lot of antibiotic use in livestock. So there's all these different places we have to sort of curb the use of antibiotics. And I will tell you this, it takes a long time to develop new antibiotics. It can take 10 to 15 years, which is why there are people around the world right now who are trying to find alternative sources of antibiotics. to find alternative sources of antibiotics. They're scouring the bottoms of the ocean with ships, and they're looking even within nature to see if something can serve as an antibiotic. Now, we've discussed this in the history of the show

many times, and you know a lot about it. I do? Yeah. I do know one thing, is that the drug companies, these hotshots that are making billions of dollars with vaccines and the fact that they make more money with that and they're not liable for anything, have given up on researching antibiotics. They've stopped. Their antibiotics labs have all been closed down.

They don't care anymore because they're just after the money. And the government's done nothing to counter this. That's the big thing. I told you you know a lot about it. I'm just grousing. Meanwhile, sad news for Pfizer. They've had to halt the development of their twice-daily weight loss drug. They were trying to hop on the semaglutide train, the GLP-1 drugs.

the semaglutide train, the GLP-1 drugs. Sad day. They halted it because up to 73% of people in the test experienced nausea, up to 47% reported vomiting, and 25% experienced diarrhea. I thought that was the feature of these drugs. I thought so, too. I thought that's how it works. You can lose weight that way. That's how it works.

Vomiting, I mean, you can do it yourself. It's called bulimia, but nobody wants to weight that way. That's how it works. Bumming. I mean, you can do it yourself. It's called bulimia. But nobody wants to do that anymore. We did hear from our psychiatrist. Remember the one who told us about how controlled the psychiatrists are when it comes to telling children after one visit, yep, you're a boy. You got to get on some drugs. Remember this one?

Yeah. All right. yep, you're a boy. You got to get on some drugs. Remember this one? Yeah. Right. So it turns out she just wanted to say, and she wrote a very long piece in here and she comes from a background. Her mom was 400 pounds her entire life. She had, this is interesting, watching her over the years, I learned how to hoard and sneak food, eat it very quickly because otherwise she would eat it first, which I thought was a funny line. I adopted and created many food games I would play to try and control my cravings and intake. Nothing worked. I was overweight most of my life. She says that she had the food noise in her head. Now, her obesity came from childhood trauma. Basically, she wanted to not be attractive because of abuse that she had as a young child.

This is very well known. This happens a lot, especially to young girls. But she ends by saying, 34 years old now, at 34 years old, I'm now 43. Everything changed. I sought out Overeaters Anonymous, the sister program to Alcoholics Anonymous. Now, they, of course, have a religious part to this. So she's embraced God and spirituality. But along with that, came a very strong influence to not eat foods that contained sugar and over-processed foods.

Then she has lost 115 pounds. She actually sent two pictures before and after. So she is just saying that the food noise is real, but it's coming from sugar addiction and processed foods, which is the real problem, which is the issue that we have. And I saw this in the netherlands where we used to go to the butcher get your beef we went to the actual baker and we got our bread the milkman dropped the milk off in the in the bottles and everyone biked to school no matter what weather you know and now you go look they're look, they're getting fat. They're getting obese because they've got processed food.

They've got fast foods. We got all kinds of stuff. All bad intake. And it's about to get worse. Now for business news. TikTok is one of the world's. That's not what I wanted. I'm sorry.

I forgot to cut it. Stay competitive with higher. Oh, sorry. I like when you do the big grandiose lead in i screw it up the wall street journal reports that the chain has been working for the past this is mcdonald's seven years on improving its signature hamburgers after a test run in australia these 50 tweaks which include a brioche bun fresher pattiesies, and more sauce, well, they'll be unveiled in the United States. Now, why is McDonald's doing this? Well, to stay competitive with higher-end chains that have taken a $2.4 billion chunk out of the United States' $72

billion burger market. Needless to say, the rollout is massive, with tens of thousands of McDonald's workers across the globe. No news yet, though, Will, about when these changes will come to the European McDonald's burger. So McDonald's is going to make 50 5-0 improvements to its hamburger. How about better meat? Well, how about they've been devolving their burgers. I haven't had one. I do like to do a quarterly report for Horowitz's show.

And I'm here, too, and try to have one of these. I can't. Last time, I couldn't even eat it. But I do get the ice cream cone once in a while when it's hot out. But when I do that, I go through the normal line, the drive-thru, and I look at the menu. Yes. And I got to bring the camera and go get another ice cream cone because this, what, a quarter pounder is like $11? Well, there's that.

It's like 10 bucks for a Big Mac? These used to be, when I was a kid, this used to be the 15-cent hamburger place. 15 cents. That 15 cent burger now is almost three bucks. I mean, what? The inflation doesn't know. No, I know. I've got the inflation tables.

This is way beyond inflation. And in the same during the same period, the quality has gone nothing but downhill. Well, there's a couple of things. One, minimum wage requirements, mainly in California for fast food workers, unionization. This has all been predicted. Well, you know, if you want to do that,

then, you know, the price of your burger is going to go up. But I'm very curious to see, A, what they did to improve their burger 50 steps. Nothing. That's got to be taste and texture products they're mixing in. Two, get ready for every morning show in America. Oh, yeah. Oh, let's try the new burgers.

All the native ads are going to start coming in. It's going to be great. That will be fun. But meanwhile, if that's too expensive for you. This is the best burger I think I've ever eaten. Here's the line. I would write this line and put it into the script that somebody has to say this. It'd be El Roker to be good at this.

I think this is the best burger I've ever eaten. This reminds me of the burgers I had when I was a kid. That's the line I'd write. It's like they've gone back to the base. Whatever McDonald's has done, it's magic. They got better cows. And this goes back to the burger I tasted when I was a kid. I'm telling you, it's burger classic.

If you can't afford that, we have a solution for you. Well, macaroni and cheese that has no dairy, newly released today by Chicago-based Kraft Foods. It's called Not Mac and Cheese, and it was developed with Chicago startup NotCo. Kraft is offering two versions, original and white cheddar. The fake cheese will be made out of fava beans and coconut oil powder. It follows other plant-based products,

cheese slices and mayonnaise released earlier this year. Looks like mac and cheese. Tastes like mac and cheese. Not mac and cheese. Few slaves can get used to mac and cheese. Mac and cheese. Mac and cheese. Tastes like mac and cheese. Not mac and cheese. You slaves can get used to mac and cheese. Mac and cheese. Mac and cheese. Macaroni and cheap cheddar melted together.

Mac and cheese. Mac and cheese. Mac and cheese. So it doesn't even have cheap cheddar in it anymore. And we've been on the mac and cheese thing for 14 years, maybe even longer. We have said this would be the future of food, and here we are, right again.

The future of food. We were wrong on the fact that it would be cheese. It's not even cheese. It's fava beans or some damn thing. Processed by a refiner. It's disgusting. It's unbelievable.

No, it's believable. It's believable. This is where we are. This is where we're at. This is it. So I'm going to play three clips that are a different topic. Okay. Because this is coming to a head,

and the clips are, it says F-E, I think it's Georgia, but it's F-E-O-R-G-E versus the SEC. Oh, yes. Yeah, yeah. This is a great case. And this case is interesting because it's it's it may or may not. I'll tell you what the issue is after we play a few of these clips. Let's play clip one. The Supreme Court is considering how much authority federal government agencies have. The Biden administration has appealed a lower court decision in favor of hedge fund manager and conservative radio jockey George Darkeese. The SEC fined Darkeese and barred

him from the industry after finding he committed securities fraud. The lower court then ruled that Darkeese should have been allowed a jury trial. We turn now to our legal correspondent Arlene Richards to sort out the arguments. Arlene, in layman's terms, what happened here? Well, to state it simply, the SEC is a government agency, and for years it has been initiating claims against individuals through its in-house tribunal system rather than going to an outside court. Now, Congress gave them that power under the Securities and Exchange Act. They used the same system in this

case, which fined and barred George Garcese for securities fraud. Now, he appealed to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. Garcese's attorney argued that the SEC's powers should be restricted by the Seventh Amendment of the Constitution, which gives individuals the right to a jury trial. At oral argument today, he said that basic securities fraud is a typically common law claim, and therefore this client should have gotten a jury trial in a federal court. So this case is about what is the extent of those Seventh Amendment restrictions in securities fraud cases where the SEC is seeking penalties. cases where the SEC is seeking penalties. In this case, the Fifth Circuit also ruled that the SEC's actions violated Articles 1 and 2 of the Constitution. So the court effectively invalidated three aspects of the SEC's operations. Yeah, this could change the entire

administrative slash deep state. Yeah did this the problem is this case is stepping on the upcoming case about chevron deference yes yes which is better that's that's the case which is a killer because it's about some guy in a fishing boat where he had to hire inspectors and he had to pay the for the inspector government inspectors to be on his boat. And it was just a complete... The problem with administrative law, it was always accepted by the... After your clips, I have a 45-second clip that explains Chevron deference. Okay. So the point is that the Chevron deference case will be the one that can screw over administrative law because of abuse of power, which is what's happened with that upcoming case.

This case is a bad case because it could step in and under some circumstance create a precedent that would screw the other case. Oh, so this guy is is he a shill no i don't think so i think this is just an accident but they've everyone's glommed onto it knowing the potential for it being destructive insofar as the chevron deference case is concerned which everybody's freaked out about they are freaked out because what that case would do is take away these kangaroo courts and all the rest of it. It has to be all rethought. It's a major, major case. This case here, they screw it up. Let's play part two. So presumably the SEC followed the same proceedings that it usually does to handle

suspected fraud. How is this case or the proceedings different from other cases? Well, the proceeding itself was not different, but I think the issues raised on appeal were different. And of course, the Fifth Circuit's decision was unexpected. Now, the court decided that Congress violated the Seventh Amendment when it gave the SEC the power to initiate administrative proceedings and seek penalties, and that by giving them this power, the SEC has unrestricted authority to choose cases and seek remedies without going to a federal court. And the Fifth Circuit said fraud actions like this case should be handled under federal common law and not by independent agency action. under federal common law and not by independent agency action. It seems like the Fifth Circuit unilaterally changed a law or proceeding that has always been used by the SEC. What was the

Biden administration's response to the ruling? Well, the Biden administration is, of course, very concerned about this ruling. Notably, the SEC's five-member commission is appointed by the president with the consent of the Senate. So this ruling undercuts the administration's authority. Their response to this decision is that the SEC has a longstanding practice of filing cases under the Securities and Exchange Act. It uses an administrative proceeding that sends these cases to an administrative law judge, and that judge reviews evidence, holds hearings, and hears arguments. If the defendant doesn't agree with the decision, he has the right to appeal to a court of appeals, which is what happened here. So, in other words, he got due process. They argue

that the Fifth Circuit made significant errors in its ruling because Congress does, in fact, have the power to appoint individual matters to agencies, even if they involve common law issues. This is kind of the same thing with the IRS, where the IRS, who have guns, by the way, they've showed up at my office with guns. They, you know, if you want to appeal a ruling by the IRS, you can, but you got to have like $100,000 to mount a case, which is why most people don't do it. But this guy is a Wall Street guy. So he said, screw it, I'm going for it.

Okay, part three. They also argue that Congress's power to delegate matters to agencies doesn't depend on whether or not the case is uniquely suited for agency review. Now, what are some of the concerns expressed by the Supreme Court justices today during oral argument? Well, I think the biggest concern here is what effect this change would ultimately have. And one of the justices noted that this involves asking the court to change the law. And she expressed concern that it would require changing the powers of all federal agencies. Garcese's attorney said this could be fixed by giving the people a choice of which tribunal

can review the case. But I think many of the justices were concerned that the federal courts would now be burdened with an increase of cases. And actually, some experts have said this decision is particularly troublesome for federal banking regulators who solely rely upon in-house tribunals. Those regulators don't have the option to file claims in federal courts. But the court today, Tiffany, seems to be considering the suggestion that individuals should have an option to choose the tribunal. So here is a 40, I think it's a 45 second explainer from last year, November last

year about the Chevron deference case. Tony asks off topic, but can you explain Chevron deference and the rule of lenity? The Chevron is not a use of force doctrine. So it's not my area of expertise, but just general legal knowledge. Chevron was the Supreme Court case in which the Supreme Court essentially said that if there's an administrative decision by part of the executive branch, the EPA makes some kind of administrative decision. It's not a statute passed by the legislature, by Congress, signed by the president. It's not a law in that sense. It's not case law. It's not an appellate court ruling. It's just the EPA makes an administrative decision that that is treated much as if it were a statute or was case law and is equally binding. The effect is to give the administrative state, the bureaucracy, incredible power and authority that many argue, I would argue, they should not have. And so that could

go back and then the administrative state would have to adhere to the rules as passed by congress and congress has to be more specific because they always has to do some work yeah because they just go yeah that's good we'll let the epa figure it out we'll let the irs figure it out we'll let the scc figure it out the irony of the whole shervon deference case which i think is underappreciated especially in its ironic form is that it came out of the reagan administration oh really and it came out because because they loosened that reagan told the epa no no no you guys are too strict you've got to pull back these various you know these these these requirements loosen

regulations because it was you know and so they did so they loosened regulations and got sued for loosening regulations by dropping the standards they got sued by a bunch of environmental groups groups that went to the probably Kennedy. It went. Bet you. I don't know. But it went back to the Supreme Court. They said, look, did they say, look, they said, look, here's what we're going to do because they ended up I think Chevron got involved by being sued because they took advantage of the new looser regulations. And then they got sued by

the local uh environmentalists and they the whole thing went to court and the supreme court said look look they said uh what what we have here is a situation where we have to we have all these administrative laws it it you whatever they say goes and so if they want to loosen the law, fine. If they want to tighten it, fine. And that's the way it is. And then that became the Chevron deference. And so the environmentalists kind of lost the case. But that's where it started.

So nobody thought about, well, instead of getting looser and making less regulations because you just do it on demand, I'm a regulator, these regulations, I'm going to change them all to nothing you get a bunch of assholes in there doing crazy stuff like making requirements that are unobtainable which is where we are now and so now this case is uh you know it's abuse of power it's a very interesting kind of a switcheroo there which happens this is what what happens when you try to overdo things since you bring up um reagan i watched the arnold schwarzenegger documentary on netflix yeah it's a three-parter and for the it's so it's three hours basically the first two and a half hours you're like wow america is great

what a great country. Look at this guy. Look at what he did. Look at how America worked for him. It's just everything is beautiful. It's like apple pie almost. It's so good. It's so beautiful.

And then it gets to the part where Arnold Schwarzenegger runs for re-election as governor of California. for re-election as governor of california and he goes he got that he put the this the state in debt for 222 billion dollars for solar crap for climate change because he decided to work oh i got a hands across the aisle and and he left i mean it was the other states were worse by the time 2008 came around. But it's really disappointing to see how kind of a good guy got completely captured because he tried to be nice. Co-opted. Yes, he tried to be nice. And those exact same climate change rules and regulations that he put into California is what Obama what obama nationalized this even this it's all in there obama went hey arnold was great let's do this for the for all 50 states and it was it was it was yeah thanks to his his wife well he well he was maria and i think they were divorced by then

no i don't think so i think when he first started with the climate stuff he was already oh yeah could be could be that was really near the end when when he was yeah stooping his uh maid well no that was that was 96 is when joseph was born i mean it wasn't no no when he got caught well you know that kid was pretty old by the time he got caught he was 14 you know how that went so yeah of course he was you know he was the governor and he was in sacramento and so you know it's very difficult on a family and they were going to uh uh they were in therapy together and one day he's in therapy and the therapist says okay maria wants to ask you a question and she says yeah is joseph your son and he said well at that point i just told the truth and then boom it was all over

and he's it's kind of sad because he's alone now you know he's he's 75 he's got a small donkey that he lives with yes the donkey's there the donkey's in the house. Donkey's walking around. It's kind of sad. It was not a good ending, but it just shows that everything was great and then he got co-opted and then just went down the tubes. And I can see his thinking. We got sun in California.

We should turn that into energy. Well, it didn't work out that way. I'm going to replay one of the two clips we had from Richard Haass with Morning Joe, which we played a week and a half ago, because there is news on the Ukraine-Russia front that is important to discuss, and there's no clips, so I'm going to replay this. How long do our allies in Europe, who've all done, I think, together, NATO's done an extraordinary job. How much longer do we continue pushing, I think, what many people in the Pentagon would think is the unrealistic goal of Ukraine driving every last Russian out of their country?

It's exactly the right question, Joe. And what concerns me is when people get disillusioned and increasingly come to where you and I are, that as desirable as it is, it's simply not feasible. They're going to increasingly say, and we're hearing it in the House, we're hearing it in parts of Europe, why should we keep doing this? We're already stretched. We're trying to support Israel. We're worried about Taiwan.

And even if we give everything we need to give or want to give to Ukraine, it still won't lead to success. What I argue, therefore, is the United States needs to have some very direct conversations with Ukraine, with President Zelensky, talk about reducing their emphasis on liberating land, increasingly put all their emphasis on holding on to what they've got. In the long run, diplomatically through sanctions, yes, we can try to see the rest of their territory return. But for right now, let's have 80 percent of this country safe, 80 percent of this country rebuilt. I would actually propose to cease fire as an interim arrangement to expose the Russians for what they are so we can rebuild support for Ukraine in this country. But we've had two fighting seasons. The idea that one or two or three more years of this is going to result in success, I simply don't see it.

Russia's on a war footing. They have access also to arms from North Korea and Iran. So I just think anytime in foreign policy, anytime in life, there's a big gap between what you're trying to do and your ability to do it. You've either got to increase your means or lower your goals. And I think here, the only realistic option as a tactical measure is to lower our goals. So we took that as an obvious signal to Morning Joe. Well, let's make sure that we re-mention the fact that this guy ha's talking to morning joe as the head of the council on foreign relations yeah big big cheese and he goes on morning joe really so yeah makes no sense he may even be just be friends uh with scarborough

and say hey bro like i doubt it so now we know that there was an article in the economist which we missed um and for it to be in the economist all, which is very left-leaning with the new editor who's been there a couple of years, that both the military generals or the leaders of the Russian military and the Ukrainian military, both named Valery, interesting interesting valera valerie um have been talking and they have decided they're going to end this thing uh seymour hirsch wrote about it in a pretty good sub stack everyone in europe is talking about this the peace talks an american businessman who spent years dealing with high-level ukrainian diplomatic and military issues and government told me earlier this week but there are lots of questions between a ceasefire and a settlement. The veteran journalist Anatoly Levin wrote this week that the battlefield situation in Ukraine

and thus the ceasefire negotiations for peace settlement are becoming more and more necessary for Ukraine. He said that it was exceptionally difficult for the Ukrainian government headed by Volodymyr Zelensky to agree to talks, given its repeated refusal to negotiate with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The driving force behind of those talks has not been Washington or Moscow or Biden or Putin but instead the two high-ranking generals who run the war, Valery Gershmov of Russia and Valery Zalozhny of Ukraine. And on the table is everything that we heard here from Haas, 80%. They'll keep their

80%, the 20% that they have recaptured, which is what it was about in the first place. Interestingly, on the table appears to be the allowance for Ukraine to become a NATO country, as long as they do not have any weaponry on the new border, as it is now, and it can be defensive only. And that would be the concession that Putin makes. They keep Crimea, they keep the Donbass region, and Ukraine can then become a NATO country, which is like, wow, has Putin learned nothing?

But okay. But it seems like this is happening. And even in The Economist, First Lady Olena Zelenska told The Economist she does not want President Volodymyr Zelensky to lead another term and he needs to find something new in life. She doesn't want him to be president anymore. So I think this is, it feels like this is probably a handful at home she looks like it a handful at home um so it looks like this is really happening it's coming to an end now of course they have to hit i loved uh uh the end of uh Hersh's sub stack. The two generals may continue to talk and Putin may indeed be interested in a settlement that gives him permanent control of Crimea and the four provinces he has claimed. But Zelensky remains the wild card.

The American official said that Zelensky has been told that this is a military to military problem to solve and the talks will go on with or without you if necessary. The American official told me, we can finance his voyage to the Caribbean, which kind of goes in line with those two yachts he supposedly just bought. Well, he's got yachts. He's also got houses all over the world. That was a documentary on YouTube done by Scott Ritter that was very detailed on all the houses

that Zelensky's managed to accumulate all over the world. So, yeah, they can get him out of there if they want to. I got a weird Ukraine clip that I wanted to play, which is, this is just off the wall. I was collecting good news clips, and this is from a Shreveport, Louisiana, local station. And this is from the Shreveport, Louisiana, local station. And I guess there's a bunch of and I think I don't know how this isn't a violation of the Logan Act. Play this clip. The war in Ukraine rages on. And today, a delegation from the Ukrainian parliament met in downtown Shreveport to inform the public about the state of the war and how crucial economic investments from American businesses are needed to help rebuild that country. Our Madison Edwards spoke with members of the Ukrainian parliament,

and he has more on what they discussed. So what was it, Madison? Well, Jeff, Louisiana and the Ukraine share similar port exports. That's why the members of the parliament are asking the local Shreveport citizen to help their cause and for business leaders in the area to invest in the rebuilding of the nation. Louisiana is a major trading partner of Ukraine and the Ukrainian delegation met in downtown Shreveport to discuss strengthening ties between the state and Ukraine through business, energy, agriculture, and humanitarian efforts amid the ongoing conflict. Member of Parliament David Arik Amiya says Shreveport and Ukraine share similar business exports.

So the thinking here is that this is Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House's home state. He's their congressman. Yeah, this is definitely a way of getting to him. Influence operation. I mean, so what it sounds like is, well, of course, the Biden administration wants no end because, I mean, let's because then the focus will come back to him and Hunter, which, of course, is what we're going to be wasting our time with for the next year. Thanks, Republicans in Congress.

That, you know, so neither the Biden administration or Zelensky want to give this up. Give me credit, man. So we need a solution so everybody can bow out. And I mean, maybe this is something for the Curry Dvorak Consulting Group. We need a solution so everybody can save face. Yeah, a lot of face saving needed here. This report went on for a long time. I didn't clip the whole thing. I saw it.

I saw the whole thing. Well, the one point that they kind of made in there is these guys, this group of parliamentarians from or parliament members from Ukraine are going to hit like 10 states along the part of the country.

This is part of the rebuilding. This is the rebuilding part. Yeah, they're trying to set the stage. But it seems pretty screwy if you ask me. I think the win would be Ukraine becoming a NATO country. That's an obvious win for the U.S. White House. All right, we got them, but they're nowhere near being prepared for that. Has Sweden even been approved yet? No, Sweden's still, I think, still in limbo.

Finland has. Finland got their approval. So, I mean, they need something. Now, it's possible also the following. Let's say that deal is done where, yeah, you can join NATO. But joining NATO does have to have a majority, not a majority, but a unanimous consent with all the NATO members. Including Russia. No, I'm just kidding.

There are people actually would believe that. I know, I know. We've seen clips where, oh, I don't know why. Yeah, we've seen clips. We've seen it. So you do a behind the scenes deal with Turkey. Ah, Turkey A. Turkey A and tell them, hey uh nix this okay and then you

nix it or even even uh putin could do that deal i mean somebody could do it because turkey doesn't care at this point they'll don't they're the ones screwing up the sweden uh yeah yes yeah yeah yeah yeah so it's possible that they won't. I mean, yeah, okay, we can let them in, but we won't let them in. Well, no, we'll let them in. We're all forward. Good to go. U.S., Europe, they all say, okay, it's going to be great.

They're going to be NATO. That is the stepping stone towards full European membership, which they also won't get. No, they can't. That would be the worst thing that europe could do europe doesn't they don't want another greece on their hands so and then you're right then then we have worse then we have turkey a just be the the the foil the foil continuous foil like nope nope nope nope nope but but i mean it's it's a beautiful it's a beautiful thing that it's coming to an end. I'm so happy. We need less war in our lives.

We could do with less. That thing is a mess. That is just a rubbleization of parts of the country. Well, they have the rebuilding project all good to go. I mean, everybody's ready, and I'm sure there's- There's money to be made. There's tons. Well, there's money in the-

How about that? How about we give you Russia's money, the 300 billion that's been on the table for a long time. I'm sure that Russia's written it off. You know, they're trying to screw Russia with the methane bull crap. So they could still kind of, kind of have their anti-Russian stance. I mean, there is something new. This was so funny. We've been through this so many times with russia but okay here it is one more time gay clubs across russia have been raided just days after the country ruled the lgbt plus community was extremist the reports from moscow followed the highest court in russia banning what it called

the global lgbtq movement human rights groups have slammed the actions so this hasn't quite hit in the u.s yet i'm expecting it because what happened is 48 hours after the russian government and really what they're after is one lgbtq organization which is a non-pro an ngo who course, are weaponizing LGBTQ, just as it's done here in the U.S. They say, hey, you guys are an extremist organization. You're not allowed anymore. This is not new.

Russia has gotten rid of all kinds of NGOs because they usually are agencies, particularly for the United States, CIA, MI5, MI6, whatever, MI5. MI6. But this is being twisted to say 48 hours after they outlawed LGBTQ, they invaded all the bars, they raided the bars, which was for, I guess they were looking for some, they were trying to do some big drug bust. So that might catch a storm. They might use that. which was for, I guess they were looking for some, they were trying to do some big drug bust. So that might catch a storm. They might use that.

I mean, that could be a way to refocus the Palestine energy, you know, because something has to happen with that. The Palestine energy is a problem. It's a real problem. Because they're just losing losing grip over that so you know we need to uh remind everybody that trump is a dictator and uh the worst uh scenario imaginable in your life is if trump is re-elected president again you say donald trump if he is i'm sorry this is liz cheney on cbs you say why does anyone even give her a mic for this reason and this reason only? You say Donald Trump, if he is reelected, it will be the end of the republic. What do you mean?

He's told us what he will do. It's very easy to see the steps that he will take. People who say, well, if he's elected, it's not that dangerous because we have all of these checks and balances, don't fully understand the extent to which the Republicans in Congress today have been co-opted. One of the things that we see happening today is a sort of a sleepwalking into dictatorship in the United States. Dictatorship. It's a replay. It's a replay. Crock and crap. And everyone's slapping it up.

Like there's no tomorrow is Liz Cheney. And Liz Cheney has got to be the lowest form of human. well, there was a Gavin Newsom, uh, this DeSantis debate debate which was a complete waste of an hour and a half five million viewers apparently yeah well that's more than i expected hannity's not a slouch well um true so i i didn't clip any of it and i wasn't about to

and it was a lot of talking over each other but But I did get a 15 second clip of Capehart. Yeah. Who saw the who saw the whole thing and he had all these things to say about it. And and he did this little ditty. Do you think that Governor Newsom's appearance, though, helped the campaign of President Biden in any way? I do, because when I watched the debate, almost every in every sentence, it was Biden, Harris, Biden, Harris, Biden, Harris, President Harris. It was promotion. It was a promotion. That's great. Well, here's here's boots on the ground what's happening chicago which now is finally building migrant camps in the city um with the huge tents which

should have been up a long time ago because it's 16 degrees in chicago and all the migrants who have been partially bussed in from Texas, but others have been flown in and others choose willingly to go to Chicago. Welcome to Chicago. Yes. But these tents, which will house, I think, a couple thousand migrants, are in black neighborhoods. We've been following this for a while. Yeah.

And this has now come to a head where the black Chicagoans are saying, we're voting Republican. And any Republican candidate in the city of Chicago, now is your time. Because we are done with the Democrats. Wendy Johnson, Governor President, and President Biden have shown us what they think about the black community we are done with the Democratic Party. Wendy Johnson, Governor Prince of Wales,

has shown us what they think about the black community all over this country. And so we're standing here today to say, okay, if that's what it is, we win it. We don't have to support the Democratic Party. We don't have to continue to support people who

are not going to support us. And the Democratic Party here in this city, in this state, and in this country is not supporting us. You got the Republicans on one side and the Democrats on the other side. Guess what? They're part of the same bird. So it doesn't matter anymore which party we go with. But I'll tell you this. I'd rather deal with the snake that's outfitting himself of the Republican Party than the snake that's coming up in the Democratic Party. We're not going to continue to stand for this. We're not going to continue to allow our state representatives, our congressmen, our aldermen, and our mayor to let us know that

we don't matter. Just like you're going to show us that we're going to matter, we're going to show you. It's going to be a great day in the city of Chicago when a Democratic convention comes here, and then they found out in March that a lot of black voters took Republican ballots. Deal with that. That's right. Deal with that. Yeah, that's right.

The convention coming in March in Chicago. Every time they do one in Chicago, it becomes a riot, riotous situation. It's harkening back to the 68 convention. It's a cycle. It must be. How many years is it? 60 years it would be. No, it's 60 years.

Yeah, 60 years. 60 year cycle. It's like the certain stock market moves. Yeah, so you have 60 years later, you get about 60. It'll be a real bad look if the cops are beating blackheads, I'll tell you that. Oh, they will. They'll be beating them. Yeah, but it'll be a bad look.

Yeah, it was a bad look when they were beating the students in 68 the democrat hey we need to bring that back beat students we need to bring that back they're crazy beat them students beat them students um one of our producers uh was intrigued by our discussion of uh vice presidential picks for President Trump. Oh, yes, we have picks coming in. Well, he has the odds. He has the odd makers from the sports bet in Australia, which I thought was interesting. Oh, this is interesting. Okay.

So I guess the lowest number is the most likely, right? So it's one in six. That is more likely than one in 40, correct? Yeah, I would think. All right. So in order of appearance, one in six, Kristi Noem. She's South Dakota? Yeah, South Dakota governor.

One in 6.5, Elise Stefanik, which was unknown to me. I've heard her name, but I can't think of what she is. I don't know where the Aussies came up with this. Well, they'll bet on, look. I know, they'll bet on anything. Because they got nothing better to do in Austria than bet on stuff. They haven't got guns. The country's dead.

Sorry, Aussies, but you got screwed. She is a Republican congresswoman from New York. Oh, yeah, I know who she is. She hasn't got a prayer. Okay. 7-1, Vivek Ramaswamy. Then it goes to 10, 1-10, Nikki Haley. Then we go 1-12, Tim Scott.

Tied with Tucker Carlson. No, brother. I know. This is where Australia goes off the rails. Then at one in 14, Carrie Lake. Carrie Lake has been, a lot of people are pushing Carrie Lake. I don't think President Trump wants her to possibly upstage him in certain cases. Yeah, she's an upstager.

No doubt about that. She's an upstager. Yeah, that could be a problem. Then my potential pick, one in 21, so those odds are not good, Sarah Huckabee Sanders. Then we get into just, you know, like Marsha Blackburn, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Ben Carson, Gregory Abbott. No. Then Marco Rubio. I mean, it just, I mean, and let's see odds at one in 41 is Tulsi Gabbard, Bobby the Op at 41, J.D. Vance at 41.

So the odds have it at Kristi Noem, at least Stefanik. That's, you know, she could be, she's definitely had made the right moves. I could see Kristi Noem being a good candidate. Man, the South Dakotans are not happy with her. Now what? No, they just haven't been. Craig, who's one of our producers. She brags a lot about being the greatest governor in South Dakota in the history of the state. Now they have all kinds of issues with it. There's lots of stuff she's done that the

South Dakotans don't like. Particularly the conservatives. I'll have Craig Weinberg. Have him write it up. He'll write it up for me. He'll tell me succinctly what it is. But I know because that's when Megyn Kelly, last time I was on,

emphasis on last time I was on. emphasis on last time I was on. Probably the last time you were on. Yeah, she's like, Christy, Christy, no. And I said, no, South Dakotans don't like it. That's not true. Okay, Megan. Your imitation of Kelly is almost spot on. I mean, I can't tell if she's actually in the studio with you.

I know. It's like we switched over to New York. She's now going into acting. Who? Megan. Does she know him? No, Megan Kelly. Yeah.

Everyone's okay. So Daily Wire are doing movie projects now. That's what that CEO guy, that's what Boring always wanted to do. So I guess they're doing a yeah i'm reminded of of remembering yahoo was run by that guy from hollywood ah what was his name it started with a b i think i can't remember somebody that the troll room might remember it was but he was such a hollywood he was going to turn everything into like he was going to start using yahoo money to produce movies yeah and and then and then they finally spent all his time in la he never was up

here yeah and then they threw the whole thing to marissa meyer and just let it go to crap yeah what was the name of what was that guy's he was a real hollywood guy troll room doesn't know but anyway so daily wire doesn't know that But anyway, so Daily Wire. Troll Room doesn't know? That stuns me. Troll Room's not paying attention. They're trolling. That's what they do. They're too young. They're too young to know this stuff.

I mean, we could look it up. I mean, let's see. Yahoo. Who cares? Now I got to know Yahoo. Let's do it. Consult the book of knowledge. Terry.

Wasn't it Terry something? Terry something. Terry. Terry. Mm-hmm. Terry, wasn't it Terry something? Terry, Terry, Terry, Terry Semmel. Terry Semmel. Terry Semmel. I did that from memory. Well, good for you. Thank you very much. Anyway, so the Boring Company, Boring, the Boring Company, Boring, the CEO of Daily Wire.

So he's all on the the movie tip and so they're doing an animated short or as series which i think that's what megan's going to be acting in and of course what everyone's talking about is lady ballers uh the movie you heard about lady ballers haven't you oh yeah yeah and i and i think this is a mistake, to be honest about it. I think it's counterproductive. I like humor. What's a mistake? What is their mission? Is their mission just to have...

No, what you're saying, you're like the guy who owns a little store in the corner and the guy across the street selling junk jewelry. So you sell junk jewelry. And then another guy down the street does knife sharpening. So you do knife sharpening. And pretty soon the store that you started to sell something or other is now just a store full of different junk processes. Wow. I hadn't thought of explaining it that way. Well, that's what what it is know what you do and do it well so this is like us all of a sudden well you know while we're at it why don't we you know do this and that no well so they have some big names that they have in this in this movie

then it's an anti-woke movie and you know it's like movie and you know it's like it just seems like why do you you're doing an anti-woke movies as bad as doing a woke movie tell us good story there you go that's it it's just as bad as doing get politics out of it i mean that's what you're talking about yeah i think you're i think that's that's what i'm saying yeah is it just yeah let's let's do a good movie there you go try making a good entertaining film that people enjoy just a movie we'll all enjoy watching that everybody can go and watch well i guess that's what barbie was maybe a lot of everybody went and watched it yeah it was i was dumb. I still haven't seen it. I can't bring myself to watch it. You won't get past, you will not get over 10, 20 minutes into it.

There's no way. No, I'm... Because it's silly. It's a silly promotional film. Yes, yes. It's very pink, though. And I will say this, when the Oscars come out,

if they don't give set decoration or art director to the person who did that movie, they're screwing up because it is stunning. Stunning. So before we take a break, I think we should probably discuss Israel and Hamas. I have blips. Yeah, let me let me kick this off with a morning joke clip just to get us into the mood. A little deeper into the New York Times report that Israel knew Hamas was planning a wide scale assault a year before the October 7th terrorist attack. One year, according to the Times, Israeli officials obtained an approximately 40 page document, which they codenamed as, as said,

Jericho Wall. It outlined point by point exactly the kind of devastating invasion that led to the deaths of about 1,200 people, probably many more. The Times writes, Israeli military and intelligence officials dismissed the plan as aspirational, considering it too difficult for Hamas to carry out. The problem with that is, and we're going to talk to Jackie about this very soon. And the reporter behind this piece. Right. The problem with that is that Israel needs U.S. funding. We need to know what we're funding. Are we funding Benjamin Netanyahu?

Are we funding his designs to stay in power? Are we funding an operation where we have to look and guess, okay, well, is this in the best interest of the Israeli people? Or is this in the best interest of a prime minister who deliberately focused on the West Bank, deliberately turned a blind eye to this plan for a year, a year where it's specifically laid out? So I'm not so sure that Congress and the president want to approve even more money for Israel until we know that there's actually somebody running Israel. There it is. That even the Israelis support.

The Israelis don't trust Benjamin Netanyahu. I think this is the way they want to manage this crisis because you can't. Regime change. Yes. You can't hate the Jews, but everybody can hate Bibi. That's an easy one. I mean, even our own knights, like, you know, screw Bibi Netanyahu. He's no good.

And now it's like, oh, we don't want to be funding him. Yes, regime change, which would make the woke Israeli population very happy. Yeah. This is interesting because we already had Richard Haas on the show. So we know there's a conduit between the Council on Foreign Relations

and this stupid show. So this is just, this is the talking points from the CFR. Yep. We have to assume that. I think so. So the talking points, so the CFR wants Yep. We have to assume that. I think so. So the talking points, the social,

the CFR wants to get rid of BB for whatever reason. And this bull crap with this report, like, Oh, and he kept ignoring it day after day. It's like, as though they were shoving in his face every single day. And he's not get that out of there.

He looked at it like a million other reports you get when you're in the job like that. And they come past your desk and, oh, that's interesting. Oh, that's interesting. There's a different one every day and they're all doing different things. You choose one or the other and your guys are supposed to tell you what's important and what's not. And if the head of the chief of intelligence

tells you this is going to happen, you take it seriously. But if it's just some random report that goes through, this is bull crap. I think they can make him the new Putin. He has the face for it. Let's be honest. By the way, he's looking like he's losing weight on the spot.

He's getting tired. He's getting tired looking. He's getting tired of this. So they're going to oust him in some way, shape, or form. But also focus the energy not on Israel, but on Bibi Netanyahu. That is, that's a way out of this. They need a way out. They being America.

And using this phony bologna report as a ruse is a great idea. Yes, that's, there you go. That's our CIA. Sometimes they have a good one. Yeah, and the whole report could be bogus for all we know. It could be bogus. Everything he said, we don't know any of it to be true. He kept ignoring the report, blah, blah, blah.

We don't know that one thing he said Scarborough said. We don't know that any one item is actually true. No, it's unnecessary. We know that. Russia, Russia, Russia. Very perfect phone call. Very fine people. Come on's unnecessary. We know that. Russia, Russia, Russia. Very perfect phone call. Very fine people. Come on. We don't need that.

Just repeat stuff. Very fine people. My favorite. Just repeat it over. Dave Rubin tried to correct that. He was on with Bill Maher. There's always somebody trying to correct it to no avail.

Yeah, and he was on with the old coot, the USMC hoodie, pink hoodie wearing guy. He used to be married to Mary Matlin. Oh, that guy. Yeah, the bald guy, the old coot. The bald old fart, yeah. Yeah, and he was like, very fine people. And Dave Rubin is like, well, you you know he's and and just everyone laughed over him

Dave Rubin could not could not could not get the correction in no we're not gonna happen James Carville thank you Carville yeah Carville yeah you know no no you can't even understand I couldn't clip it because you can't understand pretty much like that yeah you can't understand him anymore can't all right so what clip do you have what clips do you have about this well i got the update the as of yesterday the update on the on the whole thing of course it's from pbs and so it will have a uh certain uh anti-jew as jew hate slant but it's okay this is the gaza update Hold on. Hold on. Elitist voices of America. This is NPR or PBS. Tonight, hopes for another pause in the fighting in Gaza anytime soon have

dimmed considerably. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered his negotiators home from Qatar, saying the talks there had hit a dead end. Since fighting resumed, at least 200 Palestinians have been killed, bringing the death toll since October 7th to more than 15,200. Those numbers from the Hamas-run Gaza health ministry. Meanwhile, the focus of Israel's renewed aerial bombardment of Gaza has shifted from the north. Yeah! Nat pops. We got to remind everybody remind everybody nat pops that's what you do as a video editor good work israel's renewed aerial bombardment of gaza has shifted from the north

in the southern gaza city of han yunus the streets are engulfed in smoke the israeli military has dropped leaflets urging residents of the city and the surrounding area to evacuate further south. But beleaguered Gazans say there is nowhere to go. They seek refuge wherever they can find it, like this makeshift camp outside Al Nasser Hospital. We fled the north before coming here. We went to various places. There's no safe place in Gaza. Our houses are gone. Our property is gone. Our money is gone. Some died, some handicapped in the hospital. What is left to cry for? And then they tell us we will get aid. Where is it?

As the wounded fill Al Nnasser hospital today that aid 50 trucks full according to the palestine red crescent society entered through the rafa crossing along the egyptian border the first relief since the ceasefire ended friday yesterday israel had blocked aid from getting into gaza you know what's interesting that sir Sir Brian of London is in Israel. He's been giving me his boots on the ground. On Friday, he sends me a text message. He says, well, ceasefire's over. Rockets are incoming.

But I didn't hear anybody report on that. I heard one report of rockets incoming. But before the ceasefire was over, before it was they started launching rockets yeah israel yeah now the the thing about these reports and all of them have the same thing it's the it's the uh palestinian health authorities that has the the head count of the dead what is that all about well they're the authority they're the authority they're the health authority they're not the death authority they're not the government well they're the authority. They're the authority. They're the health authority. They're not the death authority. They're not the government. Well, they're the health. They're the authority.

I find it peculiar that this one non-agency or who knows who they are has got the death count. Probably some guy in an apartment in London. You know, I think of the same thing. Like the Syrian guy. Forget who that was. Remember that guy? I thought it was a girl. No, no, no. It was the Syrian guy who was who that was. Remember that guy? That was a girl. No, no, no. It was the Syrian guy who was the authority, and he was in London.

He's a Syrian authority. Just making it up as he goes along. So, okay, let's go to part two of this. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the fighting would not stop until Israel meets its objectives. We will continue the war until we achieve all its goals, and it's impossible to achieve those goals without the ground operation. The ground operation was necessary to bring the results until now, and it is necessary to bring the results moving forward. With hopes of a renewed ceasefire dissipating, Vice President Kamala Harris spoke with reporters in Dubai, laying out the Biden administration's vision for peace. Five principles guide our approach for post-conflict Gaza. No forcible displacement, no reoccupation, no siege or blockade, no reduction in territory, and no use of Gaza as a platform for terrorism. We want to see a unified Gaza and West Bank under the Palestinian authority.

And Palestinian voices and aspirations must be at the center of this work. Wow. Wow. Waffling much. Waffling. She's waffling. Does she have absolutely no emotion whatsoever when she discusses anything?

She just reads like a robot? Yeah, sounds like it. Sounds about right. She's an idiot. Unlike the emotion and the sportscasterish vibe of this CNN report. Both Israel and Hamas have indicated they were ready to restart fighting if the negotiations fell apart

and if the truce expired. And that's exactly what happened right around 7 o'clock this morning. We have seen the skyline of Gaza. We have heard the strikes the IDF is carrying out in Gaza. So this war is very much back on as both Israel and Hamas had promised. We have seen Israel carrying out strikes in southern Gaza. According to authorities there, that is where they said they would focus the second phase of their operation. Meanwhile, Israel has dropped leaflets in parts of southern Gaza. Interestingly, those leaflets have a QR code that brings you to a map with Gaza broken up into very

tiny parcels. It seems as if Israel will try to evacuate these parcels of civilians along established evacuation routes in an attempt to avoid civilian casualties as the fighting resumes at pace. Worth noting that Secretary of State Antony Blinken was just here. He said Israel had to have a concrete plan to protect civilians before they launch the second phase of their operation. Well, that is now here. He also said Israel needed a plan for more humanitarian assistance. And yet aid trucks outside of Gaza that have already been inspected by israel according to an eyewitness on the ground there have not gone in since this morning so phil it is very much a question of whether that humanitarian aid has now been cut off with the fighting resumed

yeah we know that's not true because yesterday's report showed they came through poppy harlow broke it down for us This hospital simply cannot take more children with the wounds of war. There are children everywhere. These children are sleeping. There was a bomb literally 50 meters from here. This is a war on children. A war on children, stark words from a UNICEF spokesman as the truce between Israel and Hamas has ended. He was speaking from one of the last remaining hospitals

that is operating in Gaza. The Hamas-controlled Palestinian health ministry says 6,000 children have been killed in Gaza since the October 7th terror attack. That's all you need to know. It's a war on children. That's it. That's all.

It's a war on children. And with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage. In the morning to you, the man who put the sea in the war on children. Ladies and gentlemen, say hello to my friend on the other end, the one and only Mr. John C. DeFore. Well, in the morning to you, Mr. Adam Curry. In the morning, all ships and sea boots on the ground,

feet in the air, subs in the water, and all the dames and all the knights out there. Hello, trolls, trolls, trolls, trolls. We got 2,073 trolls in the troll room. 400 low. They're eventually just going to have to take

this as the new normal. No. Okay. All right. I would say by christmas we'll be back to doing the executive producers in after the first hour because it'll be very short i know i know look i've been around this gig i know how that goes i've been around this gig man uh but for now uh we're we're still very happy to report we have 2,073 trolls hanging out with us in the troll room which you can join them there's room for 400

apparently go to trollroom.io and join in the fun you can log in right there listen to noagendastream.com listen to it live as we come to you live every Thursday and Sunday and of course before our show is the fabulous Darren O'Neill who

celebrated Ozzy Osbourne. Oh, my God. He played his songs. They're terrible. They're not terrible. Ozzy's songs are good. Oh, please. Oh, bah humbug.

Come on, man. What do you want, Lawrence Welk? Darren, play some Lawrence Welk for John on Thursday. Uh-huh. That's right. That's the way to go counter-argument is Lawrence Welk. Yeah. Ozzy is classic, man.

He sucks. Wow. All right. John at Dvorak.org. You can't mess with Oz. That's un-American. Stinks. You can also be alerted when we go live, when any of the shows go live.

Actually, if you subscribe to the podcast in a modern podcast app, go to modern podcast apps.com. I'm using podcast guru right now. I like it a lot. He's got a lot of cool features in there. Or you can just, you know,

join us at no agenda, social.com where I have not posted a single post since the last show, and I will continue my boycott because it's horrible. They're all over you about you're a Musk hater. You even told the guy that he should be kicked off. I did. Well, you are at least paying attention. I said, hey, knock it off. You're making a fool of yourself.

Or quit. Quit the platform. Yeah, and did you see his reply? No. Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know that you couldn't deconstruct the media deconstructors or have an opinion or make a joke. Yeah, the guy's a jerk, this guy. Get rid of him.

Take him off. I'm not doing anything of the kind. I'm watching well he thinks he thinks you're a big a-hole because he thinks i am now too because i defended you thank you i appreciate that no i'm just this is now a social experiment i'm just watching it devolve into into mush it's chaos yes people are you know i used to try and you know manage it a little bit tell people you know try and calm stuff down. I'm not.

I'm left to their own devices. Even people who believe they're on the same team of love will just, you know, everyone is traumatized. And everyone's yelling and one-upping. I'm reminded of John Conway's The Game of Life, a very early computer program that came out in probably the late 70s. It was great. It was just for regular old-fashioned screens before graphics came along. And these little communities would crop up, and they would show you how they grew and shrunk and grew and shrunk. And they never stabilized, and they all went extinct.

And I'm reminded of that when i see what's going on there well that's what it's always going to be it reminds me of the no agenda forums that was a thing that was lively and then it just went extinct because it was they went nuts no what happened with no agenda forums is they kept saying you need to post over here you need to participate and i was like i got no time for that well you don't love us and i said well there was that what the real killer for them was they started their own podcast the round they counter program it was called the round table wasn't it i think something like that yeah yeah and it turns so they were just this this podcast that nobody paid attention to

it's just these no that's not the problem they tried to do a podcast about our podcast every you know twice a week and it turns out oh it's really hard well actually that's more than another one yo agenda was more along those comic strip blogger yeah yeah and his buddy had there's two guys and they was all he was grouse about our show. Yeah, yeah. And then when the show, that's when the show first started and then when it got like two hours long and then it got

close to three hours, they couldn't do it. Couldn't hack it. Failed out. We smothered them with love. No, no, what you should do, and I'm a proponent of the troll room. I think it's good for people to go to trollroom.io

during the show, go in there and go, I hate you, you suck, because it just scrolls off and it goes away and then nothing really happens. It's good, you get it out of your system. I think it's a really, that is the place to go then and you also can't post memes that's another good thing about it you know it's just text so you have to be crafty with words you know you have to have some talent talent it's not a real thing yeah anyway use net Now, what was the what was the email system that you went to the bulletin boards? Remember, you would write an email and then it would it would upload and it would.

But that wasn't MCI mail was doing. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. It was through the bulletin board. It wasn't CompuServe email. No, no, no. Before that, it wasn't the source. No, before that, it was. It wasn't FidoNet, was. No, no, no. Before that. And it wasn't the source email. No, before that.

It was. It wasn't Fidonet, was it? Yes, Fidonet. Yes, that's it. Nailed it. Fidonet. Yes. And you'd have to wait a day.

You'd have to wait for the phone lines to open up. The guy would have a bulletin board with five phone lines. You'd have a daemon and keep dialing. To have a bulletin board back in the day, you had to have X number of phone lines coming in. So you'd have people with 10, 20 phone lines you have a demon and keep dialing to have a bulletin board back in the day you had to have x number of phone lines coming in so you'd have people with 10 20 phone lines which was a good thing for the phone companies well it was all local calls you had to find a bulletin board with a local local number so you could be because you know long distance no one could afford it especially not at 300 baud or whatever we had. That was 300 baud. Remember those days? And then it quickly went to 1,200.

So there you go. And then we got the Hays compression protocol. Yeah, baby. Yeah, Dennis Hays. Remember that? Good times. Yeah, I do. I remember all that stuff

because I had all that gear. Now I have five gigabits per second fiber in my lifetime. Okay. Just because you have two networks that don't even get one in total. I have two networks that both get one. You're getting one to the local head end, to the ping. You're not getting any. Well, that's just true with everything.

Right. So don't give me this. You're not getting two. Well, you're not. It's not about the speed. It's about the amount of things i can have simultaneously i can have my tours and i can have my umbral and my start nine and we can dream yes yeah i see why is that funny to you? It's just funny. All right. We are a value for value show. We pioneered the concept.

Do you know that even the Noster guys are now calling themselves value for value? Yeah, eventually we'll be forgotten. Well, I think this already happened. I have a feeling we're way, way past that point. Yeah, man, Jack Dorsey invented value for value. That's how that went. I saw that coming a long time. Thanks, Jack.

At Jack. Yeah, so we decided long ago that the only way to be able to speak freely is to not have advertising or any corporate interests or any anything that that is other than just us and the audience which we never called listeners we decide to call you producers because that's what you do you send us clips you send us articles boots on the ground your insights your knowledge sometimes even your humor but we had talking about that we had i didn't i may or may not read these today probably in the show coming up we have at least three people that i got email from who work in the facilities at these various water plant facilities yes and they have all the insight about this this is bull crap and they're

using you know passwords the default passwords default passwords that anyone can hack in. And there's no reason it's on the net. We have people that do. That's why when you ask for somebody who knew about this insurance scam, it'll show up. We'll get it. It'll show up because we, it's astonishing. I have to say at some point,

it's astonishing the people that we have that work in every single industry. I was talking to somebody about the show recently. And they asked me, well, you know, we're talking about, what's your demo, he asked me. What's our demo? Did you kick him in the shins and poke him in the eye? I kicked him right in the balls. And so I said, the great thing about our show is we have no demo. It's little kids to old men, old women and everything in between and engineers and,

and everything pilots. I mean, there's preachers, everybody. It's astonishing. The demo. Yeah. Every race,

creed, religion, background, everything. Yes. We have, we have a world demo. Just tell them that our demo is the world well that's probably easier on them than kicking them in the balls well it's too late now i mean the guy will

never talk to you again pissed off about it so the way that works is if you get any value out of the show and if you don't you got to question your life because why you well you could be hate listening it could be hate listening yeah You could be hate listening. We do have hate listeners. Oh, you know, shows that I hate to listen to, I listen to regularly. Yeah, you're a hate listener.

You go out and find shows you hate. No, there's only one show I hate. And I listen to that twice a week. By the way, she's on TV now. She's on a Sunday CNN panel show. I can't wait for the clips. Oh, brother is right.

Led by that ex-Fox guy. What's his face? What ex-Fox? There's a bunch of them. Sanchez? No, no, the guy who left Fox. The famous dad. What's his name?

Tucker Carlson. Other famous. No, the news guy who went, I'm leaving this Fox. You Republicans. I'm a liberal. Oh, Shepard Smith. No, no, no, no, no, no. I'm throwing out as many names as I can.

Chris Wallace. Oh, Chris Wallace. That guy. Yeah. He moderates it. He is just a, well, it's dud meets dud. Chris Wallace. That guy. Yeah. He moderates it. And Kara Swisher is one of them. He is just a, well, it's dud meets dud. Dud meets dud.

Ooh, I got to write that one down. Dud meets dud. Anyway, back to value for value. So here's an example, although it's a sad example, because Sir Paul Couture created the No Agenda Art Generator for us, noagendaartgenerator.com. And he's maintained that thing for well over a decade we had one before that but i mean it's it really that is true value because he changed the structure of it at least midway and you know there's over and just smooth as silk over 24 25 000 always smooth as silk 24 25 000 Over 24, 25,000 pieces of artwork.

This is where the artists compete. This thing went belly up, hardware failure, and he has just been pulling his hair out trying to get it back online. So he has a temporary page up and we've got all kinds of solutions. But the point is, we never would have started that. We would never have been able to afford to pay someone to do that. We would look at the monthly bill and go, eh. I can hear you go, eh, why are we paying for this?

And it goes for all kinds of things. We have never had to do any of that. All we have to do is deconstruct media and assemble a show twice a week. And we're so grateful that's value for value yeah and the volunteerism is a big part of it that's not something you can just do if you're commercial entity no selling ads try it invites i mean our show invites volunteerism we get we get reports that are voluntarily submitted we get the art that's voluntarily done. We have somebody doing the art generator voluntarily. And that's what, it's a big deal when you can get a system together that has a lot of volunteerism.

Yeah. Because you end up getting astonishing product until it crops out. Well, yeah, I mean, obviously. It has its ups and downs. There's some downside, yeah. But the downside is kind of quaint. No, I like it because we can't yell at anybody. No, you can't.

What are you going to do? I'm working for free, you prick. If we had been paying for this, we'd be like, get that thing back up. I can't believe it. And now we're like, I'm not spun up over it. I'm not mad. You're fired.

I'm not mad. It's like, oh, I feel bad. I feel bad for Paul that he's trying to fix that. And it's a pain in the butt. I'm sure it's a miserable situation. It wouldn't have taken him this long. No doubt. So with that, that's the time and talent portion.

We also have the treasure, the three Ts of value for value, time, talent, treasure. And we love to thank our executive and associate executive producers right at the top of our list. We always read out the amounts. We give the notes that people have sent in. And we are very... But we got to thank the artist for the last artwork. Well, I don't know who it was because remember, you sent it to me and be said, I don't know who did it. But the artist who did it should send us a note and say, Hey, give me some credit here.

So I can put your name into the credits, which are just empty because I didn't know who had done that. Cause it was something you would just collected. I collected. Yeah. collected and i collect what i yeah normally before i do a newsletter i go into the art generator and i find two or three pieces of art that i might want to use for the newsletter and then i'll place it into the newsletter and see if it works and uh that piece was rejected and or i used it i'm not don't remember but whatever the case is that so I always have a bunch of pieces sitting in my files that I just looked at. Your email, you mean?

You email yourself? No, I do it directly. I do just the save images. Oh, right-click save images. Nice. Yeah, I don't do any email stuff. All right. So, yes, we'd like to thank our executive and associate executive producers.

And we start off with a guy who has always been there for us, usually about once a month, Sir Animas of Dogpatch and Lower Slobovia. And he sends, now this is not an atypical number for him because he likes $2 bills. He sent us a row of ducks, 22-22, which i'm going to presume was in cash and included two dollar bills at least one one two dollar bill yes and uh he says thank you to and he always has a typewritten note we have very little idea about um about this producer synonymous of dog patch lois lobovi other than he's He's anonymous. He keeps himself anonymous. He's anonymous, and he is a patron saint for us.

Thank you to all the producers, and congratulations to the many that now use the pronoun doctor. That's a pronoun we stand behind. And thank you to John and Adam for being effective altruists, working on holidays, finding the best use of your remaining lives, is to deconstruct news and entertain wait a minute is he is he predicting our doom here working on holidays and finding the best use of your remaining lives that's you and i john is to deconstruct news and entertain the dedicated producers it is good to see americans fight the effort to impose theological beliefs into law by so-called conservatives. Having a little experience with countries committed to conservative theological laws of my faith,

implementing some of these laws can cause even those with strong morals to question their interpretation. No, that's deep. That's deeper than normal, I think, for seronomists. Well, he must have been given a parking ticket or something, I'm guessing, in Saudi Arabia. Which comes with a beating. John has often referenced shanty towns as an alternative to tent cities. And I would say you've promoted the idea. Yes, I have.

The political term at the time was Hoovervilles. Yes, under have. The political term at the time was Hoovervilles. Yes, under President Hoover. That was in the 30s. But worldwide is what I'm talking about. I'm talking about the shanty towns that are everywhere but the United States, not the Hoovervilles. Go on. He continues. But go on, Kara.

With elections in the offing, perhaps they can be namediden towns or trump towns could work well but the incumbent usually gets naming rights no jingles no karma but thank you so much john mr dog patch and lois lobovia you always have the best you cut right through it even if it if it's cutting through us we love you for it thank you yeah hoovervilles were, because they had this homeless situation back in the 30s, and it was like, it resulted in these little, it's nothing like today. As far as I can tell, I've looked into it. What we have going on today in certain cities, New York would be one of them, Chicago, San Francisco, although they're not there, I know what happened to them.

And Berkeley had a big town of homeless, I don't know what happened to them and uh berkeley had a big town of homeless i know what happened to them um yeah well they set up a same place some acreage and yeah them do their own thing pluma's up and she is pluma i think it's kai kai kai kai kai kai hawaii kai Kai, Kai, Kai, Kai, maybe. Kai, Kai, Hawaii. Kai, I, in Hawaii. I asked the guy once, did you pronounce it Hawaii or Hawaii? And he says, you pronounce it Hawaii. I said, well, thanks. I said, well, thanks.

And he said, you're welcome. Oh, boy. Did that joke writer write that one for you? Jeez. It's from my vaudeville days. Yes, of course. She came in with 1-1-1-1-1-1. Nice.

Satchela Richards. She says, Paramaniana, gents. Oopsie doopsie dame pluma protector of the feathered whales from here to Hawaii with a correction and a make good for show 1612 and a few dollars for your troubles. I'll say. So she donated $1,000 and she wanted a make good for show 1612 and a few dollars for your troubles. I'll say. So she donated $1,000 and she wanted a make good

so she donated another $1,100 to do it. That's what I call a producer. That's the producer. Please note, Soul Sister Kelly Origo's birthday is December 4th, not January 4th. Oh, no.

Our sole purpose is providing live taps free of charge for any U.S. veteran funeral honor services. Oh, how beautiful. By the way, this, I got this note and I said, wow, this is a very famous organization. And they did some local stories about them. Yes, that's exactly what they do. They bring out the bugler, and they can give taps to some of these funeral systems.

And this guy is the head of it, I guess. Wow. And I'm astonished. This is an example of the kind of astonishing producers we have. I mean, this is like I was taken aback. Well, I wouldn't mind uh a little no agenda bugle recording honestly something we could play on the show yeah especially after a short donation segment i think taps would be appropriate i don't want taps i just want something like i want a

charge thing or whatever but anyway uh our sole purpose is you're right this is a very famous organization providing live taps free of charge for any u.s veterans funeral honor services the military authorized the use of a recording of taps for these events in the year 2000 since then our founder tom day and some 4 000 volunteers he has assembled take care of this last tribute to our veterans oh i see so the military went we'll just do it we'll just use a recording and they said yeah i got one here on my phone yeah yeah god bless you guys for doing that if you could just give the website ask people to remember when their veteran passes on that there's good chance that they'll have a recorded taps

performance rather than having a heartbeat behind those sacred 26 notes just go to the website put in the date and details and someone will contact you and be there for your veteran. That's not too big of an ask. We love that you do that. What's the website? Well, I mentioned it three times. BuglesAcrossAmerica.org. BuglesAcrossAmerica.org.

Okay.

All right. Requisite one second long. Okay. Start with the top. That means something. And that means something. Ooh, I'd like the uptalk on that. Yeah.

Okay. Yeah, I do too. I like that one a lot. Devastated. I was devastated. No, I still like the first one better. Okay. And then not right.

Something wasn't right. I think this is... Yeah, but all of them, it's interesting, I didn't notice that when I clipped them, but they all have an up talk and they're all... Yeah.

But this is... And that means something. I like that one the best. Yeah, I think that works. That really is good. Oh, hold on a second. Now it's time for... Google U with JCD.

Ah, people love this segment. They listen to the end of the show. Oh, I don't believe that for a minute. Yes, people love the good news segment. It puts them in a good mood. They're happy. They're happy like, oh, now I can leave this program and just feel good about myself. Yes. Yes, people are telling me program and just feel good about myself. Yes.

Yes. People are telling me I love the good news. Nobody's done this, but OK, it's true. Good news. This is the good news clip for today. It's about the dog named Mudge. Firefighters leaped into action, saving a 100-pound Great Dane trapped in a deep hole. This happened off of Old South Road and Lake Wheeler Road.

Tonight, we talk to Mudge's owner about the rescue mission. This is Mudge in happier times. And this was Mudge on Saturday afternoon. The 100-pound Great Dane fell into an old well 50 feet deep. Oh, no. We called 911 right away, and, you know, they come out, but they don't have the,

they have to call the right department that has the right equipment. You know, they had to bring that tripod situation with all the climbing harnesses and everything to get down there. Crews from Cary Fire, Fairview Rural Fire,

and Swift Creek Fire Departments responded. They used a rope rescue technique. It took hours and plenty of patience, but crews were able to lift Mudge out. I don't know, but unscathed, I just can't even believe it. It's quite the drop, and it is covered up now, by the way. It's completely covered up, so yeah. And it is covered up now, by the way. It's completely covered up. So, yeah, you know, part of me kind of wonders, yeah, part of me kind of wonders, you know, did she fall to save someone else? So how did Mudge get down in that old well?

We found out Mudge's owners, the Houdins, recently purchased the property. And the well sits quite a distance from the family home. They didn't think it would be a problem, but now they know differently. Mudge is now home safely, and her family couldn't be more thankful for first responders. They did all this for my dog. I mean, and she is part of our family, truly, so God bless them. I mean, they were very, very organized when they showed up. They had a plan. They knew exactly what to do.

I was so happy for Mudge. Now, that well was covered before with barbed wire. The family has now covered it with some rebar so it doesn't happen to anyone else. A good news story from JCD. Happy vibes for you and me. And we all feel better now he's done his bit. So back to reality, that's turning to shit. Yay! Good news, good news, good news. Well done, John. There's nothing like a good news story that's about a dog.

Yeah, a dog. It's always good. It's always good. There's nothing wrong with it. Nothing wrong at all. And we come to the end of our media deconstruction for this day. Thank you so much for supporting us, dragging

us through. We hope you enjoyed it. Hope you learned something. Hope you got some value from it. We've got That Larry Show coming up next on the tube, on the wires. It's episode 442, titled Mary Griftmas. Oh, that's going to be good.

Coming to you from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA Region No. 6. In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley, where I remain, I'm John C. Dvorak. And with that, we bid you adieu. We look forward to seeing you again on Thursday.

I'll have my meet-up report and all kinds of groovy stuff, no doubt, because the news never stops, nor does the deconstruction. Remember us at Dvorak.org slash N.A. until Thursday. Adios, mofos, a-hooey, hooey, and such. This was straight out of Putin's playbook. Putin's playbuns, playbuns, playbuns, playbuns, playbuns, playbuns. Well, we know this is definitely part of the Russian playbook. Russian playbush, Russian playbush, Russian playbush, Russian playbush. And the Russian philosophy, the Russian playbook will not change. So I think that is the Russian playbook, Russian playbook, Russian playbook, Russian playbook. And the Russian philosophy, the Russian playbook will not change.

So I think that is the Russian playbook. It is part of the Russian playbook. The tactics look familiar. Like a page from Russia's playbook. Because of what he called Russia's playbook on murdering people. Clearly Russia benefits the most from this. And it does fit the Russian playbook. The Russian playbook.

The Russian playbook. the Russian playbook. But what Putin is doing in Ukraine is actually straight out of a Russian military planner's playbook. The country planner's playbook. Putin's playbook. Putin's playbook. Putin's playbook. Putin's playbook. Putin's playbook. When the Republican Party adopts Russia's authoritarian playbook. So Ukraine is a country, Russia is a bigger country, Russia is a powerful country.

Russia decided to invade militarily, unprovoked. Basically, that's wrong. We respect the sovereignty, the territorial integrity. Right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right. We as America are saying that's wrong. And we will stand with Ukraine in saying that that is wrong. We know that what Russia is doing is wrong. There needs to be severe consequence.

right right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right. If you take out Saddam, Saddam's regime, I guarantee that it will have enormous positive reverberations on the region. Like Judas of old, you lie and deceive. If you take away the Soviet Union and its chief proxy, the PLO, international terrorism would collapse. proxy, the PLO, international terrorism would collapse. Are there any other nations that you would recommend that the United States launch preemptive attacks upon at this point? The answer is categorically yes, is Iraq and Iran.

But a third nation, by the way, is Libya as well. Libya is trying very rapidly to build an atomic bomb capability. All stand together to stop Iran's march of conquest, subjugation, and terror. No matter on which side of the aisle you sit, you stand with Israel. Podcast in the universe. Mopo. Dvorak.org slash N-A. And that means something.
