No Agenda - 1689 - "Unhappy Newcomer"

Starting point is 00:00:00 She was a dipshit. Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak. It's Sunday, August 25th, 2024. This is your award winning Give-All Nation Media Assassination Episode 1689. This is No Agenda. Boosting Bobby and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill country here in FEMA Region Number 6.

Starting point is 00:00:20 In the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley, where we're wondering, whatever happened to John Tesh? John Tesh. I'm John C. Dvorak. It's Crackpot and Buzzkill. In the morning. Isn't he hanging out on an island with Kenny G.?

Starting point is 00:00:41 John Tesh sold a lot of records, I'll have you know. Did he now? Yeah. Well he was always on PBS. The reason I bring this up is because PBS keeps showing these different broadcasters. Does anyone even know who John Tesh is? Isn't that kind of pathetic if he sold as many records as you say? Well but he was...

Starting point is 00:00:59 And nobody knows who he is anymore? Well he was most known for his stint, as we'd say, stint on Entertainment Tonight. Yeah, he was the guy for his stint as we'd say stint on Entertainment Tonight Yeah, he was the guy. He was the guy with what was her name? What was her name? Yeah, see Nancy Cordes. I have no no no no no no and then later he was with Lisa Gibbons Yes, Lisa and Yanni, of course he toured with Yanni Ah yes, I remember that. And Yanni of course, he toured with Yanni. He did. Whatever happened to Yanni? Wait, didn't he marry Barbra Streisand? No, Barbra Streisand is married to this actor. All right, who is John Tesh married to? I don't know. Connie Selica. Oh. Yeah, she's no slouch. Now you knew this off the top of your head.

Starting point is 00:01:45 I want to point that out, by the way. Of course. I mean, this is me. This is why there's two of us. You know, someone's got to have all the good stuff. Well, he was used to do all these concerts for the PBS broadcasting system. Yes. And that sort of reminded me, because I was watching one of these things.

Starting point is 00:02:02 They keep interrupting it to beg for money. Why were you, wait, so you were watching it and you were actually annoyed they interrupted the John Tesh concert? Is that what I'm hearing? No, no, they haven't shown a John Tesh concert for a decade or more. It's just they interrupt all the concerts and then they-

Starting point is 00:02:18 Oh yeah, and then they offer it to you on DVD, like anyone has a DVD player anymore. Or yes, DVD or Blu-ray and it came to mind I said whatever happened to John Tesh? Yeah okay well. He was a piano player. I would say more synth, a synth guy. He was new age so synth, synth, synth. Alright before we get into the obvious that we must talk about since...

Starting point is 00:02:49 Bobby the Op, the Op, still on. Before we get into Bobby the Op, we need to go to the next op. Now the billionaire founder of encrypted messaging app Telegram has been arrested in France. Pavel Durov was reportedly detained after his private jet landed at the Bourget airport outside Paris. Telegram is one of the most downloaded apps in the world and it's particularly popular in Russia. But its focus on privacy has raised questions about its use by criminals.

Starting point is 00:03:18 So let's find out a little bit more about this. Molly Malone is here with me. Hi Molly. So what do we know about this person? So first, just a bit about who he is. This is not exactly a household name. He's Russian-born, gained French citizenship a few years ago, but he's really famed for founding this encrypted private messaging app, Telegram, and suggestions in French local media this morning that the arrest and potential investigation relates to this app for its potential lack of moderation

Starting point is 00:03:47 and potential criminal activity. But just for some context about the app, because it's actually not potentially as well known here as it is across the globe. It's one of the most downloaded apps after the likes of Instagram, WhatsApp, Facebook with upwards of 950 million users. It's an encrypted private messaging app. It's effectively protecting data from being intercepted with, as you said, a big focus on privacy. It's been in recent years, particularly popular in Russia and Ukraine. It was actually banned back in 2018 in Russia

Starting point is 00:04:18 because of its refusal to release data. Thank you, Dora. So first of all- Well, before you continue, I have no clips on this. I'm actually stunned, but I'm not disappointed. Just stunned that you brought this into the-

Starting point is 00:04:36 Not, what do you mean stunned? Are you surprised that I brought this? Yeah, I am, can I? Cause it wasn't something I was thinking about, it's just another guy. I mean, this has been going on. This is a long standing, let's start, if we want to go to the beginning. We have to remember when Phil Zimmerman, it went after him.

Starting point is 00:04:55 I don't know, 30 years ago for PGP. It was 30 years ago. I think it was a while ago. And they tried to get the rest of the guy in Trump and Trump because the governments, these, these fascist governments that are running the world, do not like the idea that people can whisper to each other, which is what this amounts to. They would love it so if I whispered into somebody's ear, they could record it and keep it to use against me, if possible, but they can't seem to get to that point yet. And now it turns out that Kim.com,

Starting point is 00:05:27 they're really going after him. He's been complaining a little bit on Twitter. To grab him somehow, he's not even an American citizen, but do the same thing that he did with Assange and arrest him for violating American laws. Okay, well, let's not get distracted yet from Pavel. No, he's one of the backgrounder. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:05:48 Well, and I think that is the general consensus. A couple of things. One, every report says he was arrested at Bourget Airport. It's Le Bourget Airport. It's very annoying to hear this. I don't know why they're not, you know, it'd be like Kennedy Airport. It's John F. Kennedy Airport, Le Boucher. The Rumble CEO jumps on the train by posting on X.

Starting point is 00:06:12 Oh, I'm a, oh, I just. Wait a minute, why doesn't he just post on Rumble? Uh-huh, Chris Pavlovsky. I've just safely departed from Europe, France has threatened Rumble. Now they've crossed a red line by arresting Telegram CEO Pavel Durov reportedly for not censoring speech. Rumble will not stand for this behavior. We'll use every legal means, blah, blah, blah. Okay, so he's jumping on the train and that is the the general

Starting point is 00:06:39 response from people is and of course what we've heard is no, as far as I know, there's no actual official announcement, but he is what was I think I think it was Reuters says he's being charged with terrorism narcotic supply fraud money laundering receiving stolen goods pornography with minors because he didn't moderate. We doesn't have moderate, he doesn't have poor moderation tools. So first, are you, do you use Telegram at all? As a matter of fact, no. No, and I use it because I detest it.

Starting point is 00:07:22 I really don't like Telegram. I find- Yes, you said this before years ago in the show. I find it cumbersome. Now, many dudes named Ben swear by it, of course, because of its apparent security. I presume it's secure that you have end-to-end encryption. I've not really even checked it. You can report people and block people. Though there's some kind of moderating going on somewhere, I guess, but it's tedious.

Starting point is 00:07:55 So people have these channels and often you're, unless you have the settings set properly, you are auto joined to a channel all of a sudden, you have some Bitcoin thing. And a lot of the Bitcoin people are on, I'd say most of the Bitcoin people who aren't also on Nostr are on Telegram. I see this a little differently though. I think that this move coming right now and Pavel, I mean, he's a billionaire.

Starting point is 00:08:21 He didn't make it off of Telegram because as far as I know, no one paid. Does anyone pay for Telegram? Is there any business model there for payment? You're asking the wrong guy. Well, I'm asking in general, maybe the troll room knows. I don't think that there's a payment necessary. He did have a payment cryptocurrency, which went to basically zero upon this news. Surprise, surprise. So there was some kind of, although that's not even mentioned in any of the allegations that I heard of.

Starting point is 00:08:53 But I think this is something different. Telegram is used extensively by, I would say, by our United States operatives to stir up stuff. How many times have we heard, oh, this particular revolution, this color revolution was started on Telegram and that some sketchy guys in Germany on Telegram. I think that this is more marketing than anything. It wouldn't surprise me if Pavel is led off quite soon. He'll be sent on his merry way. That's actually the first thing I thought of. Oh good. Well, you didn't say it, so I get dibs. That's fun, I don't care. But it seems to me, and I'd say that because of your attitude toward it, which is that you've always been skeptical of its true safety. And it seems to me that if the thing is really full of

Starting point is 00:09:53 holes and actually has back doors, arrest the guy and make it sound as though there's nothing wrong with this. It's a great secret thing. If you want to do secret communications, please use this. Don't use anything else. I'm saying something different though. I'm not questioning its encryption and its privacy. I think that what the intelligence communities and the State Department and the people who make trouble around the world, Victoria Nuland, I think they're annoyed by X and they really want to control things by starting stuff. And when it comes from Telegram, oh, this is a secure app, this guy's gotta be for real.

Starting point is 00:10:37 To me, it feels more like everybody use Telegram, don't use X. I think Elon actually, didn't he promise that we'd get secure DMing? Never saw that happen. I don't remember even promising that. Yeah, there was an end-to-end encryption promise somewhere. But no, to me, this is more like everybody you've got to please use Telegram. It's secure. See, we got this guy because

Starting point is 00:11:02 it can't be moderated. Everybody use that. Don't use X where Elon control, because there's no algorithms in Telegram. It's just chat channels or direct messaging. To me, it feels like this is something else is going on and it's marketing for people who like to stir up crap in countries and would prefer people to use something that, although they don't control directly, they can control the perception that it's real when they... Yes, yeah, I take it to the next level, which is they do control it directly.

Starting point is 00:11:38 Well, that's what happened with WhatsApp. And then WhatsApp had that promise. Remember when WhatsApp was cool and you paid $1 a year and they had millions, like a hundred million people using it? I remember that. I again was another non-user. Yeah. I'm too busy to hold up.

Starting point is 00:11:58 Well, you cannot communicate with Europeans almost without using WhatsApp. Everybody uses WhatsApp in Europe. And I certainly don't trust WhatsApp. I could send him a DM. I could make a call on the phone. Yeah, I can communicate with Europeans without using WhatsApp. You're being a technical person now.

Starting point is 00:12:18 Of course you can. But Europeans prefer WhatsApp over SMS, text messaging and anything else. They prefer it. It's where the family have groups and it's bigger than iMessage. And also of course, because iMessage is not as prevalent in Europe. People are poor there. The poor Saps can't afford an iPhone. So they're all on Android, cheap android. So anyway, I'm suspicious of this action.

Starting point is 00:12:49 I'm very suspicious of it. And will you should be? Yes. I know you're not bumping the mic, but something is booming. I don't know what that could be. Okay, well, then it's fine. All right. We kind of knew this was happening on Thursday.

Starting point is 00:13:10 We were just waiting for the announcement. It happened on cue. Exactly as we said. Yes. It wasn't like it was a big secret. Before we go to Bobby the Op, do you want to finish up the DNC and the final evening of joy, or actually non-joy, because both of us were wrong on our predictions. There was not a single cackle, let alone three. No, no, there was one. It was a ca. It wasn't a cackle, it was a ca-ca. It wasn't

Starting point is 00:13:41 a full cackle. It was enough of a cackle that I think it would count if you were taking bets. Well you said no cackles I said three so neither of us win there. No I said the over and under is 2.5. Okay you win but there was no I know Donald Trump I know his type she didn't she didn't pull that one out now did she? That was that well you and I both agreed that she would. Yeah, of course. In fact, you made a big stink about, oh, that's not much of a bet. Is that how I said it?

Starting point is 00:14:15 So we were both flawed in our thinking. It's uncanny how you nail my voice. It was spot on. I did it. And I know I can do it. I tried to avoid it, but I can't. I do have the clip of what she did say about Trump. It's about a minute and a half. What was the count? It was like hundreds of times during this convention they talked about Trump,

Starting point is 00:14:39 which was kind of interesting. I'm sorry? Interesting. It was interesting. No, I don't know what you're getting at. Here's... I'm sorry? Interesting. It was interesting. No, no, I don't know what you're getting at. Are you asking me a question? No, I was not asking you a question. Oh. No.

Starting point is 00:14:53 Here is what the vice presidential, vice president of presidential nominee said about former president Trump. Ha. But the consequences of putting Donald Trump back in the White House are extremely serious. Consider what he intends to do if we give him power again. Consider his explicit intent to set free violent extremists who assaulted those law enforcement officers at the Capitol. There was a lot of lying going on. The amount of lying is unbelievable. Well unfortunately it works. You know it works. People hear

Starting point is 00:15:37 these things over and over again and they're certain that it's true. His explicit intent to jail journalists. No, he's kind of jailing them. His explicit, I don't think I've heard that. Have you heard Trump say? Well, it was an explicit intent. Okay. Intent to jail journalists, political opponents, and anyone he sees as the enemy. opponents and anyone he sees as the enemy. His explicit intent. Why do you think she's using the term explicit intent? It reminds me of, uh, the, the, I don't know if I have this clip. I probably don't, but of the guy who, who,

Starting point is 00:16:24 who ran into a woman. I don't have it. This is kind of a redneck character talking about how he ran into a woman who claimed she saw Donald Trump it was it was a veteran. I saw that yeah a veteran he says he saw Trump say watched him say Losers and suckers, which is a classic yes. Yes. Yes And and he there and he said why he looked into it, of course, because he didn't know better to know it was bull crap. But he looked into it, and there is no video of this.

Starting point is 00:16:54 But she saw it. And so I think the idea is to drum into people's brains that explicit intent means he said it. Try to visualize him saying it it and you will eventually imagine he actually is saying it on the podium because he says a lot so he could. Yes and I understand that but the term explicit intent is it's notable. I'm not sure there must be. We need Scott Adams, the professional hypnotist, to tell us why she's using that. There's probably actually in this case, Scott might have an answer. Yeah, there's some persuasive mechanism to it. To deploy our active duty military against our own citizens.

Starting point is 00:17:36 Yeah, they're going to come and start shooting people. There's a, I think there's, I don't know if you... There's a law against that. That's not actually legal. I don't think he's ever said it. Doesn't matter. He's going to be dictator from day one. Yeah, he's going to do it. He's going to do it. That's not actually legal. I don't think he's ever said it. Oh, well it doesn't matter. He's going to be dictator from day one. He's going to do it.

Starting point is 00:17:47 He's going to do it. He's going to do it. You going to say something else? I was... No, just play these out because there's one in this group. Well, actually, before you even continue this, I want to play something. Well, I have... Okay.

Starting point is 00:18:00 No, this fits right in. All right. No, this fits right in. I want you to, let's see, I think it's in a DN. I want you to play DNC, Kamala 2, because what you're playing early in the speech, she says the following, this is Kamala 2 respect. They instilled in us the values they personified, community, faith, and the importance of treating others as you would want to be treated, with kindness, respect, and compassion. Okay, so she's been drummed into her to treat others the way she'd like to be treated with kindness and passion and all the rest of it.

Starting point is 00:18:47 And meanwhile, you're playing these clips. This is an example of treating others by lying about them? I guess so. Consider, consider the power he will have, especially after the United States Supreme Court just ruled that he would be immune from criminal prosecution. But you will have the same power, Ms. Harris. It wasn't just for him, it was for all presidents. And it wasn't really what you're saying it is, but... Not at all. Okay, that sounds scary. But not at all. Okay, that sounds scary Imagine imagine Donald Trump with no guardrail

Starting point is 00:19:41 And how he would use the immense powers of the presidency of the United States How not to improve your life, not to strengthen our national security, but to serve the only client he has ever had, himself. Yeah, that was great. That was good. Oh, so you didn't get what I was hoping for. Oh, what were you hoping for? The one where she goes, this is part of her litany.

Starting point is 00:20:08 She says, he's going to set up a commission to track abortions and every miscarriage and see what he's going to track all the miscarriages and then crack down on abortions. It's also the IVF thing is just astounding that this is not a talking point. It's not in Project 2025. There was one Alabama guy, Supreme Court justice in Alabama, justice in Alabama, one who said, well, you know, we've got to treat these embryos as children. And if anything has been successful as that, it's the IVF thing.

Starting point is 00:20:58 It's really odd. All the way up to Michelle Obama admitting for the first time in history, as far as I know, that she, well you had the clip, that one of her children, maybe both, were born through IVF. This is groundbreaking. This is breaking. I never knew that. And Trump has gone on and said that he's going to protect IVF as much as he can. Everything she says is a blatant lie.

Starting point is 00:21:25 Pretty much. And it's like, and everyone's eating it up. So not everyone, John, I would just say dimension B is eating it up. It's, it's their rocket fuel. They're fired up. Fire. I have, I have more than a couple of clips here. Can I just give an overall impression of Harris and Waltz after having watched the Thursday evening festivities? Yeah, sure.

Starting point is 00:21:56 They are just like American food. Processed. Oh, here we go. Filled with soy and sugar and marketed with rainbow colors. That's what they are. And people want it. People eat that. They like it. Mmm, yummy. It's good.

Starting point is 00:22:14 Soy, sugar, mmm, pretty colors. So, it makes sense that there's a large portion of the population that is all in on it. Well, that brings me to some funny clips, but before we get to that, I do want to play this because I, this was on democracy now and you can put the warning up. Oh, okay. Yes. Amy trigger warning. Yes. So this is a, the clip is DNC covered up protests. There was actually, this was not reported by the mainstream media,

Starting point is 00:22:46 Amy picked it up and they had a video of it because she happened to be sitting in the audience near it. And I was actually kind of surprised by the way it was all coordinated. I guess everyone was clued in on how to cover up any sort of protest that took place on the convention floor. protests that took place on the convention floor. Look at this. A few minutes into President Biden's remarks, three delegates, part of Delegates Against Genocide, dropped a banner that read, Stop Arming Israel. We were inside the convention floor right next to the Florida delegation, where it happened. While some delegates snatched the banner away, many others of the Florida delegation quickly

Starting point is 00:23:31 raised Joe Biden placards that said, thank you, Joe, and we love Joe, to block any view of the banner. The protesting delegates who dropped the banner were quickly escorted from the convention floor by security. Straight to the vasectomy mobile. Took care of them. Well, I do have one protest clip from outside, and they've taken a new bent on the alliteration of any name, like Cackling Kamala.

Starting point is 00:24:00 They've got a better one. Kill her, Kamala, your hands are red! Thousands marched through the streets of Chicago, home to one of the largest Palestinian communities in the United States. Kill her Kamala, you're a liar! It's the final night of the Democratic National Convention. Throughout the week, these protests have made it clear

Starting point is 00:24:18 which issue most divides the party. The only way I'm voting for her is she calls for an arms embargo on Israel. Those hoping for an end to military support for Israel, however, won't be won over by Kamala Harris' speech as she accepted her party's nomination for president. I will always ensure Israel has the ability to defend itself. Around a dozen delegates to the convention remained sat outside until the final hours.

Starting point is 00:24:49 They represent the Uncommitted Movement, a pro-Palestinian campaign which, during the primaries, mobilized hundreds of thousands of voters to withhold their support for President Joe Biden. They'd push for a primetime speaking slot for a Palestinian to address the bloodshed in Gaza. But in the end, mention of it within the convention hall was limited. God said I was watching and seeing that this party that we hold dear to our hearts, that

Starting point is 00:25:13 we know holds human rights dear, is not even letting my Palestinian siblings speak. Vice President Harris did again call for a ceasefire. If that's not achieved soon, one party donor is reportedly worried that protests could again erupt at universities as they reopen for the new term. Ah, they're not done yet? Okay, you won't let us do it at the DNC? They didn't even have a Palestinian American on stage. Even John Stewart made note of that, which I thought was interesting.

Starting point is 00:25:45 You're not going to do that. No, well, no, of course not. I mean, what I found disappointing is, you know, there were a couple of funny people who were doing funny stuff inside, a la Alex Stein 99. Obviously he wasn't there. I think at this point, he's even in costume, he's too recognizable. Alex Stringer, who is the petty cab guy from Austin,

Starting point is 00:26:11 who I voted for in the mayoral race years back because he wanted to put a dome over Austin and give flamethrowers to teachers, which I thought was an outstanding platform. He was in there doing a bit that was so good, or at least so convincing to whoever he was doing that to. That was the BBC. Oh, the BBC.

Starting point is 00:26:35 Yeah. British broadcasting suckers. But we had, uh, suckers you spell with an S and not a C. Uh, we had our own people saying, look at this, look at this leftist cuck. Like, you don't see this? It's so obvious. And then the... Especially the stuff about the black lover, his wife's black lover, teaching him about

Starting point is 00:26:58 civil rights or something. And then the comedian, I don't know if he's gay or not, but he was certainly acting very effeminate. I have clips from him. Oh, okay. What's his name? And this is a guy, his name was Lionel McGloin. People also took him seriously. They didn't realize that that was a gag.

Starting point is 00:27:15 It was a gag. Not only that, but somebody put a clip on Twitter where he did the same thing at the Republican National Convention. The guy's a comic. Yeah. So he plays characters. And then the Republican convention, I don't have any of those clubs because they're not very funny because the Republicans weren't buying it. And the guy was in there. He was,

Starting point is 00:27:34 he had a big hat, giant hat on in the, and he had Texas action. He talked like this and he, and he, and he tried to convince everyone. He said, Texas, big hats for Jesus or something. And he tried to convince everyone. He said, Texas has big hats for Jesus or something. It was as if he was doing. But they were just not buying it. There was nothing that he got out of it. It was funny.

Starting point is 00:27:52 But so he goes to the Democrat convention and he acts unbelievably gay to the point where, I don't know, is this guy really gay? It might be. Even gay guys are like, I don't know, man. Well, he ran into one gay guy who was going to want to date him. And so I have like five short, these are very short. Oh, you really went for it. Okay. Good. Good. Good. Good.

Starting point is 00:28:14 One, two, three. Yeah, there's five or six very short clips, but he went, but he got, he got gold when he was there. And the thing was linked in the newsletter. If you have the newsletter, you can just go to the long version of the bit. It went on for 20 minutes. You put it in the newsletter. It was good. So I want to play just a few of these things just to show you what was going on. And the Democrats just fell for it.

Starting point is 00:28:40 And I think that, and I was thinking about why the guy was so gay. Yeah, they're afraid of him. They're afraid to say anything. They were afraid to say anything and they figured he boy he's got to be a Democrat. Although we know that there's a lot of gay Republicans. There's probably as many as there are Democrats, but they're little they're less. This guy acted like a flameramer which is an old term. Yes Okay, so for example, this is a good example. He goes up he's and he's going up he's he ran into Kellyanne Conway What happened Kellyanne Conway is she is this a new mask or did she have some unbelievable work done?

Starting point is 00:29:24 She has some work done. Let's not some Dude, I know she looks 20 years young all those pointy features have been shaved down and Something happened. Yeah, something happened. So he went up to her and he was giving her and she was she was pretty affable She wasn't like making a fool of herself like when she she, I'm going to go from the top here. This is he goes and sits down with Nadler, fat Nadler. Jerry Nadler from New York. Now this is only like, this is 11 seconds, but this was the theme of what he was accomplishing by playing this character and going up to various Democrats and they were buying it

Starting point is 00:30:03 like there was no tomorrow. And this little clip is actually disgusting. This year it'd be so brat. Have a higher tax rate for rich white men. Well if we have a Democratic Congress we certainly will. Yeah baby! Tax those rich old whiteys, come on. He was all over the brat wasn't he? Everything was brat. Well the whole thing was brat. In fact, yes, he made the, he did the brat thing for, to an extreme. And that's why he called these clips brat. He goes up to Letitia James, the prosecutor in New York, and this happens.

Starting point is 00:30:40 Are you worried Donald Trump's going to weaponize the justice system if he gets in power? I'm concerned about Project 2025. And it's important that individuals understand that Project 2025 basically consolidates power in the hands of one dangerous man. And so it's really critically important- You're prosecuting his political enemies. Exactly. Guys, I have to say, you're even more beautiful in person.

Starting point is 00:31:02 I love him. I love you. Thank you so much. I wanna I love him. I love you. Thank you so much. I want to give you a kiss. Thank you. That's fantastic. That is so good. And the lie that Project 2025 consolidates.

Starting point is 00:31:20 No, it doesn't consolidate anything. In the hands of one evil dictator. Here's a prosecutor who should know her documents, did not read it. It's a flowery policy pile of words. Well I think your point about Project 2025 being written by AI needs to be taken into account when anyone talks about it. Yes. 30 pages of the intro is just about themselves, about how awesome each person is who contributed

Starting point is 00:31:55 to it. And then this whole thing, the rest of the 930 pages could be 30 pages itself, but you run it through chat GPT, like flower it up, baby. And that's what you get. Paragraphs with run on sentences, just hundreds of words. You should look at it just for yucks. You won't get past one chapter. So here he runs into some guy who is defending walls as he goes after walls as he makes a point that walls is representing a body positive image.

Starting point is 00:32:35 This is good. And he says, he's a body positivity, which means, you know, walls is just a fat guy. And so, so we get this exchange. We have a woman of color and we also have Tim Walz. What a great example for the body positive community. What do you think Tim Walz can be as an inspiration for body positive people? A young man came to him and said, we want to have a gay club here at our high school.

Starting point is 00:33:07 And he said, I'm going to lead that because I need to be... He's like a gay leader. Hey, this guy, what's his name again? The comedian? McGloin, McGloin McLean. I would say he could be a stringer for Gutfeld or maybe Waters should should hire him and send him out on the streets. You know he can clearly do multiple types of characters. He's got a gig with this. I feel a gig coming up.

Starting point is 00:33:35 It's definitely one of the most aggressive things I've seen and he did it for probably hours and he played this character this is ridiculous He was doing all kinds of bits in between these these small interviews He runs into a random gay obviously a gay kid a cute little gay kid and this this exchange takes place Is Kamala so us she's so us because she's brat She is so brat. she's Brat. Kamala is Brat. What does Brat mean? Brat is like, you're like a party girl

Starting point is 00:34:10 but like you go out at really late at night and like you fall asleep with all your makeup on and I mean I have to love Kamala being in a menage trie at one point. You know, the thing is and this is a huge weakness for this Dementia B collection of

Starting point is 00:34:30 people. I'm not even going to call them Democrats. This is a particular type of people who are just completely brainwashed, MK-ultraed in a way. Anybody can go up and act gay and immediately they'll be, I mean, you could do without, by the way that's a great idea, Gay Dvorak going in, hey hey Brad girlfriend you could do it. My gay is not that great. I mean I overdo it. I sound like a 60s stereotype gay. Yeah, you should just talk about what's the big festival with the old fat dudes running around naked in San Francisco?

Starting point is 00:35:12 What festival would they run around naked in San Francisco? Over in the Tenderloin. They all run around. They do? Yes! Oh, you're talking about, no, I know what you're thinking of. You're thinking of the Folsom Street Fair. Yes, you're talking about, oh no, I know what you're thinking of. You're thinking of the Folsom Street Fair. Yes, yes.

Starting point is 00:35:28 Yeah. You could be one of those guys. Oh yeah, I'd do it right. And by the way, not all gay guys talk like that at all. They do around here. But that's my case in point. You could get in anywhere. You can get interviews with tech leaders.

Starting point is 00:35:47 Well, most of them were gay, so maybe. Ah, there you go. Hello, everybody. So, now I do have two, before we continue on this list, if you go to Vrat, V-R-A-T, I forgot I had two of these. These are the ones that are, I misspelled brat with a V. Yes. So I got Ed Markey of the senator from Massachusetts falling for it and and they go back and forth and listen to

Starting point is 00:36:12 this idiot so some Gen Z doubters of Kamala I've noted her record persecuting people for weed I'm a stoner I use use it for PTSD. Do you think that era is so over? She's so over that? I think that even in the period of the Biden-Harris administration, they have been working very hard in order to say no. What about like coke and stuff? Excuse me? What about like coke? In her, I would have to look at it. But I... De-criminize the drugs, baby. Thank you, sir. Coke for the boy.

Starting point is 00:36:48 Thank you. Oh, man. Oh, man. These people are so stupid. They're so stupid. Oh, man. They can't even... They're so afraid of offending someone who just happens to be gay or flamboyant is what

Starting point is 00:37:03 he is. But he's flamboyant. Flamboyant, flamboyant. They're so worried about being called out for something that they'll just, they go along with everything. This is what I'm saying. It's pathetic. I'm going to start using this. Hey.

Starting point is 00:37:16 Hey. If I want something from you, I'll just try it. Hey. So here comes, yeah, that's going to work. So here's the second vrat clip, which is the, this is where he runs into some, just a regular delegate, and they go about how great Kamala's laugh is. No, gracious.

Starting point is 00:37:33 Get the best Kamala laugh ever. Oh my God, she has the best laugh! Ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha! Joy, joy, we love her, all the joy we're, No Kamala! How do we guarantee equity of joy?

Starting point is 00:37:47 Equity of joy will flow forth from Kamala. It's a just a given and part of her. We are manifesting. It's coming to you. People say vibes don't matter, but we are manifesting our nation. So these are the people that actually, these are delegates. These are people who determine who's running, who's, this is great. This is what democracy looks like.

Starting point is 00:38:11 Yes, and here I got two left and they're both again short. This is a, here he is with a young, now this is an attractive woman, a young D and she's from DC and she's a delegate and they go into this is just so off the wall it's just kind of surprises me. Who are the cuties in the Democratic Party that are speaking? Oh I don't know. Talk to anyone who lives in DC. It's hard to find a cute Democrat. Oh my god, shots fired.

Starting point is 00:38:42 No, that's the tea. Ask anyone who lives in DC and who works in Democratic politics, it's hard to find the cute ones Republican guys are hotter Yeah, but they're evil. So like I don't know We kind of love evil. Oh my god You are so bad Wow Democrats in DC are ugly. That's what she said. Wow. And then the final one.

Starting point is 00:39:10 I'm just going to stop and think about that for a second. Why? Democrats, if you think about it, generally speaking, are not the most attractive people. Just think of Jamie Raskin as a typical Democrat. Well, they have dark souls, some of them, but I'm okay. That thing comes out in the face. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's not healthy.

Starting point is 00:39:33 No, it's obviously not healthy, and this girl reflected it. Now, this one, this last clip is kind of a two-parter, because first he runs into Harry Sisson, or whatever his name is, the influencer creepy guy. And Sisson won't play along with the idea that he was gonna ask him a series of questions and you're supposed to respond yes or no queen. Now I don't know if this is some sort of a gay game

Starting point is 00:39:56 or something, but the idea is I ask you a question, you say yes queen or no queen. Sisson wouldn't play the game, so he clips it right straight to this woman. Another attractive delegate, this girl's really pretty. So there are pretty Democrats, just not in DC. Not in DC, but this girl was pretty, but she was a dipshit. So the pretty Democrats are dumb shits. And this girl, if you listen to some of these questions, like he wants her to affirm that it would be good

Starting point is 00:40:31 to give illegal alien sex changes. I mean, the question is that this guy's over the top and he's on a roll. And he really got on a roll with this girl. And again, we finish it up the way we started it with Tax rich white guys and here we go one final game yes queen or no queen, okay? I'll give you a yes or no about that okay amazing. Can you do yes, queen or no cleaner? I do that. Oh really free abortions yes, queen free gender affirming care for migrants yes, queen

Starting point is 00:41:04 So she child tax credits for dogs. Yes Queen. Ban standardized testing. Yes Queen. Yeah, like my ADD is so crazy. Get rid of those things please. Yes Queen. Amazing.

Starting point is 00:41:17 Different tax rates for white men. Yes Queen. Amen. Love you, love her energy. She's a Yes Queen-er. Amen. It says there, love you, love her energy. She's a yes, queen-er. Wow. Wow. I'm going to do that with you.

Starting point is 00:41:33 I'm just going to say yes, queen. Whenever I really disagree with you, I'm just going to throw out a yes, queen. There is, however, the Curry-DeVorekk consulting group was not contracted nor consulted for the Democrat party this year. And they've made a rookie mistake where they have, of course, hooked their wagon to the Bratz summer, which is why this guy did all the Bratz stuff. Now, we could have told them that it's very risky to attach your campaign and as we know the Harris HQ X account has taken on the the brat summer green

Starting point is 00:42:12 Everything is brat. She's brat brat this brat that these trends are fleeting And very and I mentioned this in passing to at least this morning She's still with us a couple more said like 10 more days before she goes back. 10 more days of good material. Yes, good before she goes back to Brooklyn, she's a Zoomer. And I said, cause I'd seen, I'd not heard your clips, but I'd seen the word brat and I said,

Starting point is 00:42:35 ah, John's all in on brat and she says, ah, ah, doesn't he know that brat is over? I'm like, oh? He says, oh yes, it's demure autumn. No, we did that we had the clip about demure autumn. Well, it's gone a little further than your clip. Let's not forget to be demure divas.

Starting point is 00:42:55 You guys already know how I come to work always very demure, very mindful, sort of like tick tock or Jules LeBron, who recently sparked the terms demure and mindful to have a viral bout of usage across Tik Tok. Very demure, very mindful. Very demure, very mindful. Very demure, very mindful. In early August 2024, Jules posted several videos about how she presents herself when

Starting point is 00:43:16 going to work, describing her look as Very demure, very mindful. I don't do too much, I'm very mindful while I'm at work. Very demure. I don't wear too much makeup. I'm very mindful while I'm at work. Very demure. I don't wear too much makeup. I'm very modest. I'm very mindful. You see my shirt?

Starting point is 00:43:30 Only a little chichi out. Not my chocho. Very demure. Very mindful." Her earliest video using the phrase garnered over 10 million views in a week, and she continued to post videos using her keywords demure, mindful, respectful, and cutesy, often explaining how to achieve these qualities. TikTokers quickly took notice and started using the terms in their own content, like

Starting point is 00:43:50 TikTokker Hal Baddy, who posted several videos parodying Jules and overusing the term demure, also to the tune of millions of views. "...my heart is pure, I'm so demure." "...I'm being serious, keep it demure." These words blew up online over the following days, even spreading to X, as users continued employing them in their videos. Often, ironically, showcasing things that are not exactly demure, like eating a messy sandwich. Memers also took note of the virality, creating parodies and remixes of Jules' original videos,

Starting point is 00:44:18 and lots of memes referencing the buzzwords. You see how I take my antidepressants every day? Very demure. Very mindful. There it is. Very demure, very mindful. There it is, very demure, very mindful. That's it. Well I want to call you out here. So you go to her and say that John is in on Brat when I didn't even know what it was and

Starting point is 00:44:37 have never been in on it, let alone. No, I said John is all in, he has a whole bunch of Brat clips. All in, is that what you said? All in? I'm not all in he has a whole bunch of brat clips. All in is what you said all in I'm not all in Yes, Queen I'm not all in. I didn't queen What I meant was you've had a lot of brat clips. No, no, I had one brat clip They're all labeled brat. That's all I saw. Oh, no this one

Starting point is 00:45:02 Yeah, no because this guy presented himself as a brat But I didn't know I look I don't listen to your clips. So all I see is brat brat brat So I said John's Yas Queen all I saw was brat brat brat. So is he gonna calm down? Were you not hurt? So you assumed no, I know you're taking which makes an ass out of you No, I know you're taking us an ass out of you and me you're making you're taking you're you're taking this too far I just said John's all in with the brat clips. I didn't say you're all in on brat. You're you're you're Okay, you can dig yourself out of the hole later. I'll let you slide. I'm just saying yes Queen She must think and you can stop that. I don't know if I can it's too good All right, let me switch gears for a moment because we were talking just a minute ago about these are the people who are the delegates

Starting point is 00:45:53 Who choose who is going to run for the party? We know that no one actually voted for Kamala Harris and It was amazing to hear Your governor, California governor Newsom with the pot. I hope you got the part again. I hope I tried to find this clip cause I noted it down in the notepad. I went back. You were too busy clipping the brat guy. No, no, no. I was, I was looking for somehow the problem was on YouTube video, I wrote down

Starting point is 00:46:28 it was Democrat, it was Democrat 2024, they had a label. And so I go to look it up on the search engine and there's like thousands of them. Fox did a very crappy job of labeling there. There's all kinds of stuff I couldn't find. Good stuff is disappearing very quickly. I had a couple of those myself. Anyway, this is- Well, you might have the clip I'm looking for. I hope so.

Starting point is 00:46:52 I hope so. I'm trying to regain a favor. Yes, queen. Ha, it's contagious. Pods Saves America, which is a very pro-democrat party podcast. It's a very successful podcast, has a whole bunch of Obama people on the podcast. They are now also unionized that podcast because they're from crooked media. So, we won't have to listen to them too long because they will go out of business.

Starting point is 00:47:22 And here they are with Governor Newsom yucking it up, laughing about the blatant disregard for what they would call democracy and just switching Harris or switching Biden out for Harris. How are you feeling about the switch? I mean, the switch. Now we went through a very open process. It was bottom up. I don't know if you know that. Yes, that's what I've been told. Yes, it was a blitz primary, I believe. That's what they called it.

Starting point is 00:47:49 It was a very, very fast blitz. I think it was a blink primary. It was a 30-minute convention between tweets and another tweet. It's amazing how it happened. Yeah, it's been amazing. But what is amazing is how unified everybody is. You made his next level. And even making fun of Schumer with its botched Another tweet. It's amazing how it happened. Yeah, it's been amazing. But what is amazing is how unified everybody is.

Starting point is 00:48:05 He made his next level. And even making fun of Schumer with the, it's bottom up, it's grassroots. I mean, that was like, wow. Then they're just laughing about it. They don't care. Eh, these idiots, these idiots. Now-

Starting point is 00:48:23 Well, the clip I was looking for just to bring it back and for, and I'll just have to discuss it. Oh, this wasn't the clip you were looking for. No, the clip I was looking for, he was being interviewed by Brett Baer. Oh, Fox for the Pucks. The state of America. And he loves going on Fox, by the way, Newsom does. And he always makes some comment about being on Fox.

Starting point is 00:48:40 Now I know this is dangerous. Right, I'm in enemy territory here. Yeah, exactly what he says. He says that too. being on Fox. Now I know this is dangerous. Enemy territory here. Yeah. He says what he says. He says that too. And he says, he said that the, well, the last, you know, the last number of years have been disastrous and the camel is going to bring us out of it. And, and, uh, it's going to be a new, a new way of going, a new future, new way forward. And Brett calls him. I said, well, the last number of years,

Starting point is 00:49:05 she was in office, she was the vice president. You're talking about the Biden administration. And then Newsom, no, no, no, what I meant was, and he'd make some sort of an excuse. And I was thinking about, this is why I needed the clip. He did this on purpose. And he did it on purpose on that show too. I think so.

Starting point is 00:49:23 He is doing little bitty snipes because he doesn't want Kamala to win. He wants to be the nominee in 2028. He thinks if she wins, this is pushing it off to 2032. I cleaned up the whole state. I swept the homeless under the carpet. I got the Olympics coming

Starting point is 00:49:52 Yes, I agree. It's uh, yeah. Yeah, he's doing he's he is a very sly one That Newsom he's slick, but if you're looking for it, you see it because he is Transparent so the big mistake I feel and I'm not sure I'm not sure who launched the rumors or I mean all the news channels were doing it but this was the huge disappointment. A super-sized letdown for the beehive. After rumors that a star like Beyonce would make a surprise appearance and perform at the Democratic National Convention would prove to be just that, a rumor. A gap in Thursday's program, leading fans and convention goers to speculate about a

Starting point is 00:50:33 surprise guest ahead of Harris' speech after an already star-studded convention that included surprise speaker Oprah Winfrey a night earlier. Stevie Wonder, Pink, The Chicks, there were lots of fantastic talent there, but I know people were hoping for a few other famous faces to show up. The internet guessing everyone from Dolly Parton to former president George W. Bush. Another notable Republican, Mitt Romney, also named,

Starting point is 00:50:59 but the Utah senator squashing that rumor. Eagle-eyed Swifties also noticing a gap in Taylor Swift's tour schedule, but one of the most guest, Beyonce. Whose song, Freedom, has become central to the Harris Walls campaign with the singer's blessing. Someone at the convention posting a clip of a Beyonce song at soundcheck which was viewed more than 1 million times. Then adding fuel to the rumor fire publications like the Hill and TMZ seeming to confirm it.

Starting point is 00:51:30 TMZ citing multiple sources saying we're told Chicago PD is on high alert as it's involved in security for Beyonce at the United center arena. So the way this played in, uh, in the, uh, uh, controlled, uh, I don't want to say opportunists, the Megyn Kelly's, I'll say it, the Megyn Kelly's of the world, oh, they just did this to juice the ratings, to juice the ratings. I don't think so. These are just idiots. The mainstream has no inside track.

Starting point is 00:52:03 They were the ones walking around, oh yeah, look, but this curtain hasn't been here for the past three nights or something has come up. Oh, we can hear some drum, a drum battalion are rehearsing back. It was all bull crap. And it raised some expectation. And I mean, I was let down. some expectation and I mean, I was let down. I think it was done. I more in line with Megan on this. I think that it was done on purpose. It was done for the purposes of keeping people attentive. Why didn't they just actually pay Beyonce to come out and do it?

Starting point is 00:52:42 Or anybody, or anybody. I think it was done on purpose and the Taylor Swift thing in particular, and it was done on purpose to keep people's attention. I think they did a good job of that. TMZ is suckered, because Harvey Levin is a Democrat Trump hater, so is that. He's an insider. So he's gladly go along with the program. I think he may have actually been part of the scheme. But the thing that gets me is that

Starting point is 00:53:09 I think this is emblematic and this is the, you say it was a, I think it was a huge fundamental mistake by the Democrat party and the Harris campaign because this is a unkept promise. So everything she says is a lie. The promises she makes about tipping, for example, there's no way. If she says, oh yeah, no tax on tips, bull crap. That is just a lie. She'll never implement it. and I think the Beyonce thing is symbolic of the Democrat lies and misdirection.

Starting point is 00:53:47 It is, it's a huge blunder. Yes, it's a blunder. Do you think it could have been done on purpose? I totally think it was done on purpose. But I mean to submarine Harris-Waltz. Oh, that's a meta look at it. That's an interesting possibility. I mean, it was bad. It was bad because again, I still have the content machine here. She was like, no, Bay's not going to do that. Queen Bee not coming. And so she didn't watch with us.

Starting point is 00:54:22 And so she didn't watch with us. She said, oh, what, Beyonce, you think Beyonce is going on after Kamala? I said, no, no, she's not coming. And she's a huge Beyonce fan. And so she did not watch. She was not interested. She certainly wasn't interested in Stink. So I was wrong. I'm with you there. Unkept promise. Very, very bad. And it felt

Starting point is 00:54:48 more like sabotage to me. I'm not going to argue against that thought. Yeah. One very quick clip. But it could have also been just a big screw up and part of a mentality of hoaxes. There you go. I mean, let's face it, the hoaxes that were rolled out in all the speeches about Trump were just outrageous. Everyone was doing them. We didn't really talk about it, but even Biden bringing out the very fine people lie

Starting point is 00:55:17 in his goodbye on the first night, it's like, wow. Wow. Wow. Unbelievable. Give that a rest, you idiot. I thought this was a very funny part of the VP's Wow. Wow. Wow. Unbelievable. Give that a rest, you idiot. I thought this was a very funny part of the VP's speech.

Starting point is 00:55:31 For seniors facing elder abuse. When I heard that, like, yes, I'm coming out. I stand up for seniors against elder abuse. You literally abused an elder for years. I didn't catch that. That's very funny. That's IVF level stuff. Yes, that's very good. Did you see this Pelosi comment that everyone was sending me? Also very quick. The one where she's talking about being a lizard? Yes. They didn't know what they were talking about. We know our... We're different from the presidential. We're very discreet, reptilian, cold-blooded. These are the races we have to win.

Starting point is 00:56:16 So, a couple things. So, as the Democrat party has always told me, believe them when they tell you what you are. So I will believe that. And she adds onto her very reptilian and cold-blooded, and if you see what's her face sitting next to her, who's the Democracy Now lady? Not Democracy Now. No, not Democracy Now. PBS NewsHour lady. Woodruff.

Starting point is 00:56:45 Yes. She could barely keep her lizard tongue in her mouth. Yes. It was trying to come out. It was the freakiest thing. There was a fly there, you know, in this. Yeah, but she is, she's a reptilian. I got a super cut, I got a Joyce.

Starting point is 00:57:04 Wait, before you do that, I want you to play the last DNC clip cut that I have, which is, this is Camilla one. This is when she opened the, I want to, this is kind of an ask Adam. You really want me to play the jingle? This is DNC Camilla one. This is when she opened up her speech. I want you to say, tell me what's missing from this, what's missing from this picture. Growing up we moved a lot. I will always remember that big Mayflower truck packed with all our belongings ready to go to Illinois, to Wisconsin, and wherever our parents jobs took us.

Starting point is 00:57:46 Yes, I'm missing Canada is what I'm missing. Montreal, Quebec. Montreal. I'm missing Canada. I don't know how long they were there, but I was... A couple years. I was missing Canada as well. She was in high school from, I think, 13 to 15.

Starting point is 00:57:59 Yeah. Or she was there from when she was 13 to 15. It's about that long. And if you... I'm doing some research on this now. And if you start, you have to find Canadian sources. They loved her up there. And old roommates or roommates, schoolmates of hers say nobody in Canada knew that she wasn't Canadian. Did she say, talk like this? She's such a chameleon, she probably picked up the accent and everything. She went from from black speak to A? Yeah, A. That'll be funny. Yeah,

Starting point is 00:58:30 oh I like it here in Canada, it's fabulous. A? A queen. All right, since you put a meme of it in the newsletter about daddy what's propaganda and you had all the joy letters circled. That was good. That was good. I got a super cut for us. The one thing that I will not forgive them for is they're trying to steal the joy from this country. The joy felt by Americans backing the Harris Walls ticket.

Starting point is 00:58:57 We are joyful warriors. Being joyful is part of the American identity. The Joy Factor. Campaign of Joy. You're talking about radical joy. It is downright joyful. It looks like a joyous rally. It looks like a joyous occasion.

Starting point is 00:59:11 A real zeal. And joy in the campaign. The joy that you're bringing back to the country. Joyful, exuberant rally. Thank you for bringing back the joy. Power of joy. Hope and joy. Something incredibly joyful. She does it all with a sense

Starting point is 00:59:27 of joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy

Starting point is 00:59:41 joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy a joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy joy And what do you make of this? Oh, what I make of it is, is you cannot listen to mainstream legacy media, including Fox, just have to make sure people understand the Fox is run by Democrats, without noticing that they're pretty much all against Trump. Or let me put it better, they are all pro-Harris. They're pro-democrat. The way they talk.

Starting point is 01:00:04 But what do you make of the, but not asking that. Joy? We know that. No, joy? They are all pro-Harris. They're pro-democrat. The way they talk... No, but what do you make of the... Joy? Not asking that. We know that. No, joy? No, joy. The idea... What is the... Why is this? It's a different term for hope. And it's also, I think it's a nod to it.

Starting point is 01:00:18 I don't think it's a synonym in any way or a different term for hope. It's also a bit of a nod towards the Christians for Kamala, joy for the churchies. There's a little bit of that in there. I don't know. Joy to the world. Yeah, I'm feeling that. Joy to the world. Well, you might be getting closer. I don't have it either. It's persuasion. But joy, it's like corny. Well, yeah How was hope? Hope and change it works change hope and change your work. It worked There you go. It worked. We need us. Yeah, it's not a synonym, but it worked So they needed something and someone came up with joy and we're taking their joy. Oh, we can use it

Starting point is 01:00:59 I wonder who came up with this and Maybe you know, I here's just kind of off the top of my head, I'm thinking, she cackles and laughs. And we had that one clip with the woman and the phony gay guy laughing like maniacs. Is it possible that because of that laugh, they need a foil to offset the laugh? Oh no, that's not, yeah, no, she's laughing

Starting point is 01:01:24 because she's joyful. So you kind of give her a pass on that stupid laugh of hers? Maybe. Yeah, it's possible. Yeah, yeah, I could see that. I could see that. Anyway, right on time, Anyway, right on time, on Friday, the beautiful time to change the new cycle, RFK Jr. comes out, suspends his campaign and endorses Trump and then subsequently-

Starting point is 01:02:01 On Friday? That was Friday, yes. No, you said Sunday. Oh... That was Friday. That was Friday, yes. No, you said Sunday. Oh, I meant Friday. It was right after, so the day after we changed... I know, beautiful. Now, there was, I got from Deutsche Welle, interesting, I got the timing of this.

Starting point is 01:02:17 Now you and I, of course, see this as, oh, this is what you do. Let's cut off all news coverage about the convention and let's twist it over to Trump and he had pyrotechnics and was fantastic. And Kennedy does a reasonably short speech. The Time magazine correspondent for Deutsche Welle had an interesting bit that I was not aware of regarding the timing. I think there were several factors. I think they were clearly running out of money.

Starting point is 01:02:48 That was something that we knew for a while. I think also it looked like a lot of these ballots were going to be printed in swing states. So in Arizona, which is a big swing state, today at 6 a.m., they were going to start printing a ballot with Kennedy's name on it. So if he wanted to be off it, if he really wanted to put his support between one of the two candidates, this was the only time he could really do it. And I think a lot of he clearly saw no path forward, even though that had been the case for

Starting point is 01:03:16 months. I spoken to people in the campaign who told me that for more than a year, they had been weighing possibly endorsing Donald Trump. So I think from what I hear, he's just a very indecisive person and clearly partly enjoyed being on the campaign trail and getting to be the main candidate. So, but really kind of came to the end there. I have one other shorter clip from this lady because she then brought in kind of the talking point

Starting point is 01:03:42 that everybody was repeating about Bobby the op. And before we speak about his endorsement of Donald Trump, I want to talk about how RFK Jr. tried to talk to Kamala Harris for a potential cabinet job in her administration. I mean, what can you tell us about that? And what do you make of the fact that it looks like he's he's tried to play both political parties here? I think he's tried to play both political parties here?

Starting point is 01:04:06 I think he's done that from the very start. He obviously started as a Democratic candidate and he took great pride. I mean, I interviewed him several times and he took great pride in saying that he spoke to both sides and that he was always willing to talk to the extremes of both parties. But obviously the Harris campaign, so absolutely nothing to gain from speaking with him because they actually did not want his endorsement. You know, he's an anti-vaccine conspiracy theorist. He doesn't really align with most of their positions. So, you know, even if it could get a little bit of a bump in the polls

Starting point is 01:04:40 in some ways, it didn't seem worth it to the Harris campaign. So I was watching CNN and they've removed this is no longer available. I was watching it on YouTube TV and you hit record and it doesn't record the whole show. It only records from where you were watching. I had this beautiful clip of Axelrod right out and he's with Anderson Cooper and the announcement is made and Axelrod says, well, you can clearly see Bobby Kennedy is not a well man. He has mental issues. I'm like, holy crap. It was unbelievable.

Starting point is 01:05:11 And it's gone. I couldn't find that, which was too bad. And now Fox, they went live. Also, I could not find this. They cut RFK's speech off after, they let him go for quite a while, but the minute he started talking about the drug industry, and we'll get back to,

Starting point is 01:05:33 I was like, oh. No, I thought that too. I actually could have clipped it, but it was like. I wish I had it, I looked for it. It was, they just abruptly ended, and it didn't go on much longer than that. I had to scrounge around to get back to the speech. I have two clips just random.

Starting point is 01:05:49 Let me play the CNN cutoff because that's also quite, they cut off much earlier. The same shadowy DNC operatives appointed his successor also without an election. They installed a candidate who was so unpopular with voters that she dropped out in 2020 without winning a single delegate. My uncle and my father both relished debate. They prided themselves on their capacity to go toe to toe with any opponent in the battle over ideas. They would be astonished to learn of a Democratic Party presidential nominee who... Yeah, we gotta cut this off. He's going against our donors here. Let's cut this off. Come on, come on in. Let's go. Stop it. Cut him off. We've been listening to independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. from Phoenix outlining what led him to his quixotic quest for the White House.

Starting point is 01:06:47 Let's go to a commercial break. And now dropping out and relinquishing the title of Democrat. He had a series of complaints about the party. We're of course going to continue watching his remarks. There's a back and forth over whether he's going to endorse for- Yeah, there you go. So they just cut him off when he started lifting the veil on the corrupt media. That wasn't going to happen.

Starting point is 01:07:09 But it was interesting that Fox, the minute their advertisers were in peril, talking about Big Pharma, like, let's cut him off. Obvious. People should listen to this entire speech. It's available on YouTube, I believe. Yeah, yeah. It's quite interesting. He also has an excellent rundown on Ukraine. Yep. And I thought it was very entertaining. I have two clips of just random clips of Kennedy's of this speech,

Starting point is 01:07:38 followed by two clips of the CNN analysis, which contrast, because they brought in some just brutal people. Did they call them mentally ill though? Because that's the clip I want. No, I wish I had that. That's great. I can't find it. Well, let's go with Kennedy quits random. This is random one.

Starting point is 01:07:59 Each time that our volunteers turned in those towering boxes of signatures needed to get on the ballot, the DNC dragged us into court, state after state, attempting to erase their work and to subvert the will of the voters who had signed those petitions. It deployed DNC-aligned judges to throw me and other candidates off the ballot and to throw President Trump in jail. It ran a sham primary that was rigged to prevent any serious challenge to President Biden. Then when a predictably bungled debate performance precipitated the palace coup against President Biden.

Starting point is 01:08:45 The same shadowy DNC operatives appointed his successor also without an election. They installed a candidate who was so unpopular with voters that she dropped out in 2020. The whole speech was fantastic. I mean, it was like a no agenda speech. We could have written most of it. It's like, yeah, just go balls to the wall, Bobby. Say this. It was great. And here's the second, the other segment. These are sub segments of a long speech. But I want, the reason I'm playing these, because they contrast them with what CNN said they were.

Starting point is 01:09:22 Yes, I got it. Okay. And so now it made logical, there was no illogic or rambling or anything. It was pretty straightforward. It looked like he wasn't reading it. But let's play the second one. Even today, users who try to post my campaign videos to Facebook or YouTube get messages that this content violates community standards. Two days after Judge Doty rendered his decision this week, Facebook was still attaching warning labels to an online petition calling on ABC

Starting point is 01:09:54 to include me in the upcoming debate. They said that violates community standards, their community standards. The mainstream media was once the guardian of the First Amendment and democratic principles and has joined this systemic attack on democracy. Shots fired! Okay, so now it's so they like you point out where they cut him off on CNN. I want to play two clips, these are short, of their analysis of what he had to say and I want to listen carefully to this basic slander. Donald Trump last week stood in front of a bunch of groceries and said, I haven't seen any Cheerios in a long time.

Starting point is 01:10:36 I had Cheerios for breakfast. This was Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs. And trying to get any logic out of that. Wow. Did someone on the studio floor laugh at that lame ass joke? Yeah. Ugh. I had Cheerios for breakfast.

Starting point is 01:10:49 This was Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs. And trying to get any logic out of that is good luck with that. Because it's one, you can't understand what he says. Two, if you can, you can understand what he says. And I'm reminded of a line in Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddles when somebody gets up and gives an indecipherable speech. He says, who can argue with that? That's authentic frontier gibberish. And that's exactly what that is.

Starting point is 01:11:11 Yeah. Go ahead. Well, I was going to say to your point though, Brianna, the big overarching issue here for both campaigns for the Harris campaign Trump campaign is the third party sort of X factor and what that means for turnout in November. So even if what he was saying wasn't easy to follow, it is still the concern of either campaign, which is partially why Trump was looking for that endorsement, that these voters are sort of the X factor in what they decide to do with RFK Jr.

Starting point is 01:11:41 going into November when it's going to be such a tight race. And we've seen that before back in 2016. By the way, for a black, for a black man to say that and evoke blazing saddles, pretty racist. So what was hard to follow or coco for Cocoa Pubs? Nothing. Where was the illogic? There was none. I mean, I only played those two. You could have played the whole thing and it followed a logical pattern.

Starting point is 01:12:09 It was discussing things in a straightforward manner. But no, no, no. CNN, who didn't play any of it. They cut him off, as you said. They start making stuff up. This is, CNN has really become a bad actor here. No, no. All media, all media that has advertising sucks. It just sucks. Part two. It does. Part two. And yet his supporters may be confused

Starting point is 01:12:35 because we're even confused based on his own statements. Now we've gotten a fresh statement from his campaign clarifying previous remarks in which initially in this court fighting in Pennsylvania, it said that he would be endorsing Donald Trump. His campaign came out and said, that's not what's happening. Then he in his remarks said that he was throwing his support behind Trump over the war in Ukraine, what he described as the war on our children and chronic disease was another one. It's hard to make sense of. Johanna Masca, what do you see in all of this

Starting point is 01:13:10 as this rambling speech goes on and he launches attacks against Democrats? Well, and look, he's reminding us who he is. I mean, he's the troubled son of a famous politician who has had drug problems, problems with women, nefarious business dealings with Venezuela. I mean, there were a lot of questions about his intentions in this campaign from the get-go. He is not ready for prime time and certainly not ready for the presidency. I mean, he's never held elected office.

Starting point is 01:13:41 Yeah, this is why I'm so upset I couldn't find that Axelrod clip, because there was someone else who came right that Axelrod clip because there was someone else who came right after Axelrod and said the same thing. He's mentally ill they were saying. And just listen to him. Well, we know that he has an issue with his speech, but this is so mean. I can't say it's mean, but this shows you that advertising based M5M, they have to self-censor.

Starting point is 01:14:11 They cannot bring themselves to speak against Big Pharma, against their advertisers for political campaigns. This is a bonanza year. I mean, there's going to be a lot of money spent on advertising. They just can't do that. No, no, not with. And this is why it sucks so bad. It's just horrible. Well, that brings me to another segue.

Starting point is 01:14:34 Well, no, I want to stay on. I have a couple of things I want to say about Bobby's speech, if you don't mind. Well, if you want, I just had, this is a short. Yes, I want. Well, is there a segue to a different topic? Then no. No, it's not a segue to a different topic. It's a segue to what you just said about advertising and drug companies. Well, no, that's off topic.

Starting point is 01:14:55 Okay. Because when I saw... Okay, Queen, take it. No, it's Yas, Queen. Oh, sorry, Yas? Yas, Queen. Come on, you can do it. So when I saw him do this, the first thing I thought is, oh man, because I'm a family man.

Starting point is 01:15:16 I'm thinking, oh man, his wife hates Trump. Hates Trump. Okay, that's Cheryl Hines, who we may suspect of being his handler for the CIA. Possibly. Which fits in with the OP. But she has barely been given a pass, you know, no one really talks about it, but in Hollywood, you know, particularly with the, what's the show, the bald guy, the show that she's on.

Starting point is 01:15:46 Curb your enthusiasm. Yeah, so that guy is a Trump hater. They're all Trump. Oh, he really hates Trump. So for- Larry David. Larry David, yeah. So when, and it's hard to tell in Bobby the Ops voice, but I felt real emotion when he says,

Starting point is 01:16:03 this is really hard. I'm like, this, this comes from inside edition, who of course would highlight this. R.F.K. Jr.'s wife, actress Cheryl Hines, is reportedly not pleased about her husband's endorsement of Donald Trump. Hines famously co-starred in the Larry David hit comedy Curve Your Enthusiasm. Behind the scenes, Hines is not at all happy. Cheryl Heinz is not exactly enthusiastic about him dropping out or endorsing Trump. RFK Jr. formally suspended his campaign today in the swing state of Arizona and through his support behind the former president.

Starting point is 01:16:39 This decision is agonizing for me because of the difficulties it causes my wife and my children and my friends. It's a stunning reversal. The New Yorker magazine says RFK recently texted a friend that Trump is a terrible human being and probably a sociopath. Would you say a very nice endorsement from RFK Jr., Bobby? I like how they have the little text message here going whoop whoop and they show on screen obviously someone you know just doing it for the camera. You know he's a sociopath. Now I have just one more clip to play but let's just look at a bit of analysis because

Starting point is 01:17:21 there's people are feeling, I've really been trying to go with the flow on the socials and see what people are thinking. So I'm seeing a lot of RFK supporters and I wouldn't say there's a lot of them, but there's many who are very vocal and they are posting things like, hey, okay, I wanna talk to MAGA people. Let's see if we can become united.

Starting point is 01:17:44 So that's, and I think that's genuine what I'm seeing. I don't know if it's a lot of people, but there's some big people with a lot of followers, and they're saying, okay, we're going to follow Bobby in this and we want to join with MAGA. And that is being received very positively and optimistically. Now, there's a lot of people who are saying, well, this is crazy. By the way, Whitney Webb would be one. She's getting a lot of pushback for the first time. She's saying, this is no good. He's too close to intelligence. Someone has to say the hard things. And so she's getting a lot of pushback from people. I think the funniest one is, hey, look, it's always good until Jesus Christ is on the ballot,

Starting point is 01:18:31 we're always voting for the lesser of two evils, which is true. Then there's another contingent. I see it even in the troll room. He didn't suspend this campaign only in the swing states. Well, I don't know. I mean, there's some thinking out there. Well, if Trump gets assassinated, seriously, this is some of the thinking I'm seeing, then he can still run. But I think if you're not on the ballot in the swing states, you have no chance. So I'm not quite sure why he didn't just say I'm suspending the campaign everywhere. I don't know what the thinking is behind that. My theory on this is it's too much work.

Starting point is 01:19:11 It took them a while. It's just as hard to get off the ballot as it is to get on the ballot. Oh, I didn't realize that. And it would be a major expense that, oh, what difference does it make? Let's put our efforts in getting off the swing states and then he said, who cares? Also, because he's still on these ballots, I think he still gets Secret Service protection. Oh, okay.

Starting point is 01:19:31 So there's things going on. And then there's an interesting contingent of people who are very anti-Bobby, who are now saying, okay, we think this is real. And we're all in, and this is actually a good thing because they don't agree on everything. And he will be good. And it's clear that he would be in HHS or something to do with FDA and HHS and EPA, which he's a very accomplished lawyer.

Starting point is 01:20:00 He has sued, at least his organization, Children's Defense Fund. They have sued all these agencies and they have been successful and they've arguably done a lot of very good things. You know, you mentioned something, I was thinking about HHS immediately, but you said something just casually on the last show, which is what if they made him attorney general?

Starting point is 01:20:20 That's what I want. I think that would be pretty remarkable. It's not a great position for a Kennedy, but it's not unknown to the Kennedys to be attorney general. And I'm sure you were very annoyed by one part of his speech. I can't help when I saw him say this, I'm like, oh, John's gonna be all annoyed by this. Did anything annoy you in Kennedy's speech? Well, let's see what you have, what it is that you think about his endurance.

Starting point is 01:20:51 Hold on. Sorry. Here we go. Uh, this one. Cancer rates are skyrocketing in the young and the old young adult cancers are up 70, but 79% one in four American women is on antidepressant medication. 40% of teens have a mental health diagnosis. And 15% of high schoolers are on Adderall

Starting point is 01:21:16 and half a million children on SSRIs. So what's causing this suffering? I'll name two culprits. First and the worst is ultra-processed food. About 70% of American children's diet is ultra-processed. That means industrial, manufactured, and a factory. These foods consist primarily of processed sugar, ultra-processed grains, and seed oils. Laboratory scientists who have formed, many of whom formally worked for the cigarette industry which purchased all the big food companies in the 1970s and 80s, deployed thousands

Starting point is 01:21:52 of scientists to figure out chemicals, new chemicals to make the food more addictive. And these ingredients didn't exist 100 years ago. Humans aren't biologically adapted to eat them. Hundreds of these chemicals are now banned in Europe, but ubiquitous in American processed foods. Now we know where he got this from because he has been advised by Callie Means. You are adamantly against this theory. And in fact, you still think it's a conspiracy theory. No, I don't think it's a conspiracy theory.

Starting point is 01:22:26 I think it's a nonsense. No, I'm sorry. Well, I mean a conspiracy theory in the nonsense kind of way. Okay, I can accept that. Yeah. All right. Well, I thought it was... So can we take anything he says seriously then? Yeah, I think the food supplies toxic. I'm not arguing that no, but he's he's clearly

Starting point is 01:22:51 Parroting talking points that That come from someone else. I mean what else oh he does that with climate too. So he's not an original thinker I don't think All right, all right. All right. Because I heard that and like, oh, John must be yelling. No, I'm not yelling. Oh, you yelled at it when I played the clip.

Starting point is 01:23:12 No, I didn't. I just thought I just said it was bull crap. It's what I think I said. It was a little more animated than that. So so the clips I wanted to play about the drug companies are something we used to do on this show and we stopped doing it. Uh oh, well we need to start immediately. No, we don't need to start immediately,

Starting point is 01:23:30 but we do have to play these two clips. This is one 60 second ad that I chopped up into two parts. Okay. And this is, I never heard of this before, and there's all these things coming out, and I think they're getting what they can out of the, especially with the fear that Bobby Kennedy is going to have anything to do with this because he's against advertising drug companies,

Starting point is 01:23:54 advertising on TV as much as anyone. And this is a product called Vokezna. V-O-Q-U-E-Z-N-A. I don't know how they came up with this. They spell it Vokezna? Vokezna I think. It says in the day, they'd say it in the ad you can hear how they pronounce it But it's basically a heartburn medication So people have a lot of heartburn instead of taking Tums or changing their diet or, you know, eating more base foods as opposed to acidic foods or whatever, or even eating more acidic foods that counteract it. Uh,

Starting point is 01:24:32 you use this pill and here's the opening. This is Steve. Steve takes Vocuesna. This is Steve's stomach where Vocuesna can kick some acid, you know, acid related damage to the esophagus called erosive esophagitis, and relieve related heartburn. Voqesna is the first and only FDA-approved treatment of its kind. 93% of adults were healed by two months.

Starting point is 01:24:55 Of those healed, 79% stayed healed, and Voqesna can provide heartburn-free days and nights. Healed? Is heartburn some kind of sickness? Well, it happens, the damage is your esophagus and it has to heal. It's like anything else. Oh, well the acid reflux can damage your esophagus.

Starting point is 01:25:13 Yeah, that's what they're talking about. This is an acid reflux drug, basically. All right. But, the second half is the. Side effects? It's almost 60, it's like the 60 second add, 27 seconds promote the product. Here we go.

Starting point is 01:25:28 And the rest... This is some of the worst side effects I've ever heard and how this drug ever got released into the public is beyond me. Burn free days and nights. Other serious stomach conditions may still exist. Don't take if allergic to Vauquessna or while on products with real Piverine. Vauquessna may cause serious side effects including kidney problems, diarrhea, bone fractures, severe skin reactions, low vitamin B12 or magnesium levels, and stomach growths.

Starting point is 01:25:52 Call your doctor if you have diarrhea, stomach pain, or fever that won't go away, decreased or bloody urine, seizures, dizziness, irregular heartbeat, jitteriness, muscle aches or weakness, spasms of hands, feet, or voice. Vaquezna can help kick some acid. And so can you. Ask your doctor about Boqesna. This doesn't sound like a great product. Bone fractures?

Starting point is 01:26:15 Seizures? By the way, the one thing that's in all these ads, I can't believe anyone would take this if just knowing you can somehow get bone fractures. You may experience death when taking voquezna. So what I don't get is don't take it if you're allergic to it. Yeah, how do you know? How would you know? Ask your doctor. Well, how would he know?

Starting point is 01:26:42 Nobody knows until you take it. So it makes no sense. So there's an illogic to all these ads. It's a catch-all. I used to be a Tums addict actually, until I figured out that taking Tums actually keeps the heartburn going. It doesn't help. It doesn't help. And I stopped. It's always helped me. But it's also got a lot of calcium, which you need. Oh, okay. Well, drink milk.

Starting point is 01:27:09 Well, since we're on the big pharma, we might as well bring out the news of the day. Tonight, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's former top infectious disease official and the face of the fight against COVID, is dealing with his own health scare. A spokesperson says Fauci was hospitalized for six days with West Nile virus. The rare virus is usually spread by mosquitoes and can be deadly. Fauci, who's 83 is now recovering at home. So we have all these mosquito diseases popping up all of a sudden. My favorite is the triple E. Oxford, Massachusetts and three neighboring towns have a reason for concern as mosquitoes

Starting point is 01:27:45 carrying a potentially deadly virus called Eastern Equine Encephalitis or EEE infected a resident who is now fighting for his life. We don't want to see another human case of EEE this year. The rare but dangerous disease can cause swelling in the brain. There's no treatment and anyone can get infected. The death rate is as high as 30%. Even if you do survive, usually there are long-term significant health impacts, neurological impacts. Oxford has been declared a critical risk for EEE, prompting health

Starting point is 01:28:19 department officials to recommend a 6 p.m. curfew for outdoor activities, including club sports. These are recommendations. They're not hard and stop requirements. We are definitely nervous about it. Sarah Fornier is also worried her children's sports seasons, football and cheer could be jeopardized. Cheer. But they're taking precautions by wearing

Starting point is 01:28:41 mosquito repellent and long sleeve tops. We can't stop life. They need to get out there and play. This is their time to be social with their friends and be a part of a team. Now, EEE symptoms usually begin between four to ten days after being bitten by an infected mosquito. According to the CDC, now some of those symptoms can include fever, headache, and seizures. So this sounds like another bunch of bull crap to me. This triple E, everything's, what?

Starting point is 01:29:16 I was just gonna say, I have the number. Yeah, was it five people? 11. There you go. Well, but what- 11 people average it annually annually. Out of 300, what, 350 million people in this country, 11 annually. The number is so minute. I think the whole idea is just run stories that make people anxious and you get medication because you're anxious. Oh, Xanax or whatever. I mean, here's another one. And let's turn to another health concern. The CDC is warning pregnant

Starting point is 01:29:47 women about something called parvovirus. Parvovirus is not new. Parvovirus B19 is a specific type of virus and it's a virus that children often get and they don't really get that sick. The one thing they do get are they get a red rash on their cheeks. We call it slap cheek syndrome because it looks like the cheeks were slapped. For children, not that big a deal. For pregnant women, it can be a problem because if the fetus gets it, it can cause fetal demise,

Starting point is 01:30:12 it can cause fetal abnormalities, it can cause fetal issues. And so the concern is children spreading it to pregnant women, so they wanna be careful. Some of the things you can do, essentially like we talked about during COVID, a lot of hand washing, stay away from people who might be sick, and you can certainly wear a mask if you're concerned, because that can help to a certain extent.

Starting point is 01:30:29 You are correct. As you said, this is not new. But do you remember the last time we heard about parovirus in America? Paro? Paro. That does paro. Yes, parvovirus. Parvovirus. Do you remember the last time we heard about this? No. Two years ago, listen to the difference in story.

Starting point is 01:30:50 Tonight, officials in Michigan have identified the mysterious virus that has killed at least 30 dogs. Animal experts confirmed today the disease is parvovirus. Not all the dogs were completely vaccinated. Scientists are now trying to figure out why initial tests came back negative for parvovirus, leading officials to wonder if it is a new strain. So, how come they haven't linked this as it's jumped from dogs to humans?

Starting point is 01:31:15 What a missed opportunity. And there's a vaccine apparently. I think they're missing all kinds of opportunities here. Well, not if they're just trying to keep people on edge. Well, here's the real big news because this is going to bankrupt all systems. And a lot of the arguments around weight loss drugs have been about the cost. A lot of times they are not things, unless you have diabetes, that you can get reimbursed for and they are expensive, but it could be a change coming for Medicare patients.

Starting point is 01:31:44 Yeah, a big coming for Medicare patients. Yeah a big one for Medicare patients. Medicare can now cover some weight loss drugs for the first time under the new guidance treatments that have been FDA approved for other health benefits can be covered. So that clears the way for a drug like Wigovia to be covered. It was recently approved to be prescribed to reduce heart attacks and strokes. So under the new guidance if the drug is being prescribed to reduce the risk of strokes or heart under the new guidance, if the drug is being prescribed to reduce the risk of strokes or heart attacks, it could be covered.

Starting point is 01:32:09 And other weight loss drugs may be eligible in the future as some are now being tested to see if they can provide additional health benefits. The weight loss drugs would be covered under Medicare prescription drug plans administered by private insurers known as Part D coverage. The concern for patients needing it for say like non-weight loss is really supply guys. I mean my best friend is diabetes and he can't get his RX.

Starting point is 01:32:32 Think how to make sure that people who truly need it for a condition, you know, should be able to get it. Hey, have you gotten your RX lately? Your RX? It's your RX. Your RX. So that is a very bad sign because that means the lobbying has paid off. It will be trillions of dollars to put everybody on this nonsense, what I deem to be nonsense. And we still have to... It's unhealthy. You're stuck with it forever. Yeah. We still have to clear up this one little annoying...

Starting point is 01:33:01 Just eat less food. Hello? We have to. Less in the pie hole. One little thing we got to clear up about this report. They're still combating it. There's a new study out today that links a popular weight loss drug to a higher rate of suicidal thoughts, but there are questions about the findings. CBS News Chief Medical correspondent, Dr. John Lapooque is here to explain. Hi there, John. Hey there. CBS News Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. John Lapooque is here to explain.

Starting point is 01:33:25 Hi there, John. Hey there. Norah, there have been relatively few reported cases of patients having suicidal thoughts or actions while taking one of these drugs for weight loss. It's important to note here that obesity itself is associated with an increased risk of depression. The study out today searched a large World Health Organization database that tracks adverse drug reactions and found a possible link between suicidal thoughts and semaglutide, the active ingredient in Wigovia and dozempic.

Starting point is 01:33:54 But Nora, the study has limitations. It only looked at people who reported having a problem while on the drug. We don't know how many people were taking the drug without a problem. We also don't know what the dosage was and how long people were on it. So far, the FDA has found no link between these drugs and suicidal thoughts and actions, but it's continuing to investigate. Novo Nordisk, the maker of Ozepik and Wegovi, says it stands behind the safety of its drugs and it will continue to collaborate closely with the FDA. Today, the FDA stressed to CBS News that healthcare providers and patients should have a careful discussion of

Starting point is 01:34:31 possible risks, especially in patients with a history of depression or self-harm, and that patients should be aware of the importance of reporting any change in how they're feeling. So I just wanted to remind everybody that a lot of people eat to eat away their problems. And we have played many reports of this. There's probably no direct link that you get depressed from taking this drug. And that's why they can keep saying it over and over again. The issue is there's a segment of the population who are unhappy, depressed, to have trauma and they eat to cover up when they feel sad or lonely. And when you can't eat because of this drug, then those feelings come back. That's what's happening. And we will see,

Starting point is 01:35:20 I think, a reasonably big mental health crisis. But that's okay because we can sell more drugs for that, which is groovy. I did have a Boots on the Ground from Bowling Green. If you recall on the last show that we had a news report, a clip about the compounding of GLP-1 drugs in Bowling Green, Kentucky. So we have our producer Joshua, he says, boots on the ground in BG, Kentucky here. After listening to Thursday's show, I figured to give a little background on Bowling Green

Starting point is 01:35:55 as NPR decided to call us just a small town in Kentucky. While not huge, Bowling Green is the third largest city in Kentucky, only about 45 minutes north of Nashville. Also home to the Corvette plant and the Mammoth Cave National Park. Okay, enough of that. The Ozempic story failed to mention that Bowling Green is known for having the most restaurants per person in Kentucky and in many surrounding states. Because of this, it has always been a tester market for new types of food, drink, and candy.

Starting point is 01:36:24 New Kit Katat flavor, we get it. New ridiculous unhealthy creation at KFC or Taco Bell or McDonald's, Bowling Green is gonna roll it out and eat it up apparently. Anecdotally, this what I thought was interesting, the amount of divorces happening among people my age, elder millennial, in this area over the past half year or so has been astounding and often tied to Ozempic and similar weight loss drugs so much so that the saying looks like someone else is competing in the summer Ozempics has become a thing

Starting point is 01:36:56 Recently people are getting divorced because they're like seeing other hot people walking around Hey, and babe, you know,'re not an ozempic. I think I'm gonna cheat on you. Recently I've noticed a major uptake in advertising I receive on Facebook and other socials for semaglutide drugs, even a HIMS commercial offering free and cheap injections, but I only see these when I'm scrolling

Starting point is 01:37:18 while in the Bowling Green area. The messaging is everywhere here. When I leave the state for work, there's not a peep of it on my socials. Well, that's interesting, Bowling Green producer. We need you to stay on alert because we'll know if they're trying something else out because they apparently, you're the lab rats of America.

Starting point is 01:37:36 There's a couple of places in the country like that. What else? You know of any other ones? Well, I know the Seattle area was the lab rat area for rolling out previews of movies to see what you were for focus groups. Interesting. Apparently the people up there

Starting point is 01:37:53 are like the average movie viewer, I guess. But these people is different. Like they're giving them horrible sugary candy and pretty colors and all kinds of stuff to eat. And then they throw them on a Ozendik. Yeah, that's what you do. You find a spot where it's average American and you just use that as, it's cheap.

Starting point is 01:38:13 Instead of doing a bunch of real research, you find one place. You can't be doing that. You use what you find in one place and you just see what happens. Oh man. It's actually smart. Well, it's smart if these people are aware of it, which they're not. No, you don't want anyone aware of it. That's the... No, you can't do that. Then it screws it up. It's like the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. Let's wrap it up

Starting point is 01:38:39 with the obvious to be expected. The FDA is giving the green light for updated COVID vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna, which have been designed to better protect against the current circulating variants of the virus. The best plan going into this winter is for everyone to remain vigilant. Vigilant! Use the tools we have. Tools! Vaccines, testing, treatment against the illnesses responsible for the majority of fall and winter deaths and hospitalizations. The FDA says vaccinations continue to be the cornerstone

Starting point is 01:39:12 of COVID-19 prevention and can help avoid the lingering symptoms of long COVID. The only way you get long COVID is by having COVID and vaccines can help prevent COVID. Updated shots are expected to be available at pharmacies and in doctor's offices in the coming days or weeks. The release coming just as kids are returning to school. The updated versions are approved for those over six months old. Jack your kids.

Starting point is 01:39:36 And medical professionals are encouraging anyone who's at high risk due to age or underlying health conditions to get vaccinated as soon as possible. Health experts recommend getting vaccinated sometime in September or October. It's going to take a few weeks to get that protection, which may last for several months heading into what may be a winter surge. Well, I must say, I know people who have had six vaccinations, that's the OG and five boosters, and even they're saying, yeah, I don't think this is right for me

Starting point is 01:40:08 It's not working for me we have that we I didn't get the clip But we have this one guy who keeps coming under our local stations. He's a Doctor at UCSF. He's a Chinese guy Huang something or other Yeah, and he just looks like a torturing, he looks like a character who plays a torturing person that I remember from Alias or someplace. He looks like an actor and he is in some ways. And he come in his latest thing as well. If you get COVID, don't, you know, get the vaccine as soon as you can. After you get COVID? Yeah.

Starting point is 01:40:43 Oh, that makes sense. They're promoting this. Just get the, no matter, you can be sick as a dog, you can get COVID 20 times, just keep taking this vaccine. I don't know. It's just ridiculous. This, the logic is elusive. But this.

Starting point is 01:40:59 And in that report there, they said, well, you know, the vaccine will, you take the booster and it'll last for three months. Yeah, how good is that? Well, vitamin D3. Well, this does come timed with another FDA approval John get ready free stuff I'm in a wave of COVID-19 infections this summer and as families start staying indoors more this fall the Biden administration is Restarting its free at home COVID-19 test more this fall. The Biden administration is restarting its free at home COVID-19 test. Free! Now this program, it's the third year in a row that families can order up to four tests per household through the website COVIDtest.gov. Now the federal government is set to relaunch

Starting point is 01:41:36 the site again at the end of September. Since the program began, it has sent out more than 1.8 billion COVID tests. Yeah. And this comes as the FDA announced it has authorized out more than 1.8 billion COVID tests. Yeah. And this comes as the FDA announced it has authorized updated COVID vaccines of both Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech to better protect against currently circulating variants. The CDC said last week it estimates that COVID-19 cases are growing or likely growing in more than half the states. So they show this map during this bit of the news report,

Starting point is 01:42:08 growing or likely growing, which is another interesting little likely growing. What does that mean? Well, and they show these colors and you see New York, California, they're growing, not even likely growing, they're growing. Texas and Florida don't even have a color. There's nothing happening here. No COVID. When will people get it? I mean not get it, get the

Starting point is 01:42:35 get the COVID or the vaccine. When will they start to understand? Understand what? That's bull crap? Yes, that the COVID shot apparently makes you more susceptible to getting COVID. It's crazy. It's logical if you just keep looking at the evidence. Now, I just went to COVIDtest.gov and you ordered for? You ordered for? No, no, it was a bull crap report. Oh.

Starting point is 01:43:02 Coming soon, you can order your free COVID-19 test at the end of September. Ah, fake news. That's fake news. And with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage. Say in the morning to you, the man who put the sea in the slap's cheek. Say hello to my friend on the other end, the one, the only, Mr. John C. DeMorey. Well, in the morning to you, Mr. Adam Curry, in the morning to you all. Ships at sea, boots on the ground, feet in the air, subs in the water,

Starting point is 01:43:31 and all the dames and knights out there. Troll count! 2,341 trolls, about the same as last Thursday. That's pretty good. Hello, trolls. Yeah, the trolls are good The trolls are whenever there's something cool going on. The trolls always just pile on like oh This is what the boys have to say about it By the way, I just have to say I got to stop promoting this microphone. Everybody wants one now It's crazy six months we'll have them available Dame Jennifer already said she'll be a booth babe for us.

Starting point is 01:44:07 Oh, for the trade shows? For the trade shows. That's an idea. I'm sure you'd be good at this. Yes, she would move product. Dame Jennifer can move product. Six months. Yeah, okay.

Starting point is 01:44:20 All right, six months. I'll... Oh, I forgot we're going to have... Yes, once we get this underway, we get this underway The thing is and by the way This is not won't be an exit strategy because we need the show to promote the microphone It we need to get it done before Christmas that that that yes gonna be so difficult. We can do it We can do it. You can do we like you so No, hey, I'm just the promo arm. Me and Dame Jennifer are a moving product here.

Starting point is 01:44:48 We missed NAB. So we're okay. We can try to get it out before Christmas and then we can, oh, NAB, I forgot about that. But there's a whole bunch of podcast conferences. We can go to all the podcast conferences, get a booth. Oh, I'd rather go to NAB. No, I'll go to, with Blueberry. I'll go there with Todd.

Starting point is 01:45:04 We'll do joints, man. We'll do joint deals with all. Joints? You're going to a with blueberry. I'll go there with Todd. You know, we'll do joints, man. We'll do joint deals with all. Joints. You're going to do joints anyway. What's it got to do with this? I haven't done a joint or smoked anything in 18 months. Very proud of myself. That long.

Starting point is 01:45:17 Yeah. From cold Turkey, baby. Cold Turkey. Trolls are in the troll room. You can find them at trollroom.io. The way you can find it on your modern podcast app, get it at podcastapps.com. I'm recommending Podverse today. Podverse actually revamping, going to have a whole new Podverse, so you'll get a great

Starting point is 01:45:39 experience very soon. If you're on Apple, CastamO-Matic, people really like Cast-O-Matic. And both of those apps have a little donate button when you're listening to a 2.0 compatible podcast. If you want to donate, you hit that button, takes you right to the website, takes you right to noagendadonations.com. Well, that's nice. It is. It skips a whole call to action piece. You're listening and you're like, you know, I would not have thought that, but those guys, they really gave me some food for thought.

Starting point is 01:46:11 I'm going to support them because I don't want them to go away. Because that will be the consequence. And you pulled out a cute dog, not quite the puppy, but it was close to puppy time. We'll see. What does that even mean? I don't know what you're talking about. That doesn't mean anything. If it wasn't for my upcoming birthday. You have a birthday.

Starting point is 01:46:39 I do. I'm turning the big six-oh and for the occasion my wife... So you're the same age as Kamala Harris and you're the same age as Walls. Yes, yes, correct. Who looks like he's 90. Yes, well that's being ageist but okay. It's nothing wrong with 90 year olds. Not being ageist, I just say he looks like he's 90. How is that ageist?

Starting point is 01:47:00 Well you say it in kind of a condescending way. He looks like he's 90. No, I said it in a of a condescending way. Looks like he's 90. No, I said it in a surprised manner. Oh, okay. I wasn't being condescending. The bonus of these modern podcast apps is that you will get alerted when we go live, which is really the way that I think podcasts are going.

Starting point is 01:47:21 More people are saying, yeah, we should just do it live, record it live, stop with the endless editing and trying to cutting out all the uhs and the ums. And that's the beauty of it. And tightening up white space. Hey, I love silence. I love it when we're contemplating and we're in thoughts and people look at their podcasts out like, did it break? Did it stop? What happened? What happened? These guys still talking, are they still on? What happened? It's called dead air. Yeah, but I'm not against dead air. I think dead air is beautiful. There's no reason to have to

Starting point is 01:47:56 fill up every single spot of dead air. It's okay to have just silence for a moment. Silence is golden. We are able to speak the way we have been speaking for the past hour and 45 minutes because we do not have any advertisers. We don't have to have something in the back of our mind. You know, actually there was something that someone alerted me to. Let me see if I have this. One of our producers, you know, we always have the tip of the day. And the tip of the day is typically, I don't have one today, by the way, so I hope you have a good

Starting point is 01:48:35 tip of the day. But tip of the day has often been, you know, product. If it's product you like, it's usually of the lube variety, but it's, this is bull. Yes, it's bull. I'm being funny. We had people very happy with the roller blade wheels tip from the previous show. I finally got mine. And have you tried them out? No, I just got them. Oh, okay.

Starting point is 01:49:02 It turns out that there's an Amazon influencer program. And- And you got influenced? No, no. There are thousands, thousands- Wait, wait, stop. That all of a sudden just dawned on me what you just said. Takes a while.

Starting point is 01:49:23 Amazon is paying people money to promote Amazon products. Yes. Well, it's, it's like the old affiliate program, but they are actively, as far as I know, I don't, I have no. Oh, we got to look into this because sometimes. Well, it's, it's okay. So, um, our producer got approved. It's called Shop... And the videos, it's usually videos. So it's TikTok.

Starting point is 01:49:50 Oh, well that's the end of us. It's shoppable. Shoppable. Shoppables. So people are out there... I can't trust these influencers. You can't... Well, you can't trust any podcast actually that talks about products except ours, because

Starting point is 01:50:06 we've been doing this forever. Yeah, we get nothing out of it. And to be cut straight to it, I believe this is a violation of the Federal Trade Commission rules. I think you have to disclose if you're being paid or you're getting a vig from promoting something. This is true. This was put into play about six, seven, eight years ago or longer. Walmart is now doing this. TikTok actually has their own shop. We've known this for a while. We've talked about it, but now it's gone way beyond TikTok. Podcasts are doing it. YouTubers are doing it.

Starting point is 01:50:47 So be very careful. If it doesn't say tip of the day, you're no agenda show, you're probably being scammed. It's just something to take note of. Because we can talk about whatever we want. Because we don't get paid by anybody. We get support from our producers. Because we don't even have listeners or fans. Fans, we don't get paid by anybody. We get support from our producers because we don't even have listeners or fans.

Starting point is 01:51:08 Fans. We don't have fans. I like the way you're derisive when you say fans. Yeah, fans. You have to have fan days. We have meetups. We have meetups. We got producers. Producers do stuff. They send interesting information. They go down rabbit holes. Yeah, okay. So sometimes they come up with weird stuff. Ah, there it is, first one of the show. Okay, you're up one to nothing.

Starting point is 01:51:31 No, the tally was Adam five, John four, it is now Adam six, John four, we have a producer, of course, who was tracking that. Good for him. Yes, so him. So it is six for me, four for you. I'm very disappointed in myself. Yeah, I am too because you're the one that can stop stuff on a dime.

Starting point is 01:51:54 Well, I caught it the minute it came out, but it was too late. It's okay. If you caught it before, now if you start to say, when, then you stop yourself right there. Earlier I said, interesting. I've been working on different words. Odd, strange. Strange, yeah, strange, odd. We're working on it.

Starting point is 01:52:14 So we get support in time, talent, and treasure. And one of the phenomenal things we've received from Tim Chaudrian is no agenda show net he built that website He has in fact incorporated a lot of podcasts and 2.0 features people don't realize this But you can you can take these 2.0 features which you know the chapters the transcripts All kinds of things you can put right into your website, which is not a idea. Most podcasts have dumb crappy websites and we have a good one and that is what our producer Tim has done for us just as one of the many people who provide us their time and talent. We'll be talking to our treasure producers in a moment after

Starting point is 01:52:58 we thank our artist for episode 1688. The title of that show was Impusted. I was against this art. I didn't like it. Somehow you feel that you had two gimmies in our... I had three and I got cheated out of one of them. No, it's always been two. You now have one left and you chose for Day and Kenny Ben's art which was the Balls for a hot dog and I couldn't figure out why I didn't like it until I saw it posted on some timelines and now I know if you step back it looks like a monkey. You really have to focus in on it to see that it's a vasectomy outfit that gives you hot

Starting point is 01:53:44 dogs for vasectomies. It looks like a monkey when you just look at it. It looks like a monkey's face with a monkey smile. And they didn't really work for me, but we have veto power here. I chose not to use it. No, what you wanted was the horrible Tontanile piece with a hot dog looking kind of like a limp dick being cut in half

Starting point is 01:54:06 by a pair of scissors. That was my top choice. I had other choices. Let me see. Not really. Well, I kind of liked commentary bloggers, no agenda, now with blockchain. I thought that was okay. And I saw that you use the riot drone by sweeper for the newsletter.

Starting point is 01:54:32 Yeah, because it was an evergreen piece. And I don't think that there really wasn't much else that really caught it. Oh, no, I'd like the no agenda signs, which was also a Tantanil, which were like the DNC signs, like we love you, Joe. And thank you, Joe. Those stick signs. Yeah. The stick signs. I like those. I, I, I preferred that one, but you had issues with it, which is probably true. It was, it was, the issues where it was just a little too simple and it was, and it was

Starting point is 01:55:06 small. It was, it didn't, it didn't work. Just didn't work. Yeah. Anyway. I liked the creativity of it, but I didn't like it. Yes. You didn't like it.

Starting point is 01:55:16 Well, it's okay. And it looked like it was done by hand. I mean, it looked, that I give her credit for. Yes. So thank you, Dame Kenny Ben, another Dutch master at work who brought us the artwork for episode 1688. We thank all of our artists, of course, no matter what you're doing. You put it up on No Agenda Art Generator.

Starting point is 01:55:36 It's appreciated. A lot of this art is used in our 2.0 chapters, which you can see in the modern podcast apps apps also on NoAgendaShow.net. And Dreb Scott does that. So we love Dreb, another great NoAgenda producer. Now we want to thank our executive producers and associate executive producers. We appreciate any donation. The way value for value works is whatever you get out of the show, you send us an amount

Starting point is 01:56:01 back that equals the value to you. We can't see what that means to you, so we're not putting any levels or any hoops or any subscriptions that you have to go into. In fact, you can do a sustaining donation, your own subscription, your own frequency, your own amount, it's all up to you. And as long as it keeps working for both sides,

Starting point is 01:56:22 we're in business 17 years in October. We're okay $200 and above you get an associate executive producer credit $300 above an executive producer credit and in both cases We read your note and we kick it off with Kristen Smith Who is in Katy, Texas and Kristen sends us $500 says happy birthday Adam Thank you for the blessing of you in this world and being an inspiration to others.

Starting point is 01:57:50 Oh, then you'll hate this one. No, so I'm... Yeah, I don't need to be ridiculing you. I know. I am normally on the show. You are revered. You are revered, John C. DeVore. Yeah.

Starting point is 01:58:04 Yeah. Just get that mic. Get the other mic. Ten bucks will get me a cup of coffee. By the way, may I make note of the fact that the Trump campaign, who of course still text me 20 times a day, they have gone, and it's just a trend, I just want to mention it to you, they are now going for $10. Every text I get is just $10. I need everyone to read. Oh, what happened to $2, $3 and $5?

Starting point is 01:58:32 No, it's $10. I need everyone reading this to give $10. The fate of the country is on the line. Okay, well, so let's stop right there and we'll say this. This has to have been tested. They don't do this stuff just out of the blue because they're shooting, you know, blanks. Somebody tested this and determined that 10 bucks was the sweet spot. Well, listen to this. From Trump, colon, $10 question mark. If everyone reading this gives $10, we'll outrace Kamala after her convention ends. This is not a good strategy.

Starting point is 01:59:08 Well, I hear, oh, I'm sorry. Well, this is, oh, this is interesting. From Trump, if every, from Trump, if every patriot in California chips in $5 before my rally will break records. Well, the Californians are cheap on the Calis. That's interesting.

Our formula is this. We go out, we hit people in the mouth. Shut up, slave! Shut up, slave! I want to start off with something that you want to talk about. Oh, alright. And that is the re-emergence of the six-week cycle.

Starting point is 02:07:16 Yeah! Yes, yes, yes. And I have a clip which explains what happened. 66-year-old Ronald Sivrud is behind bars tonight, Sean, after he allegedly threatened to kill former President Trump on social media. explains what happened. separate charges, including for a DUI and for failing to appear in court in Wisconsin. He's also wanted for failing to register as a sex offender, as well as a hit and run in the state of Arizona. Clearly, he's got issues. Now, the threat comes just six weeks, just six weeks, just six weeks after former President

Starting point is 02:08:02 Trump survived an assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. Sibiru's rap sheet also includes over a dozen aliases, 17 by my count, and multiple felonies. Well, this is another bonus for those agents because if you intervene, there's an intervention, then you get a bonus. They need to tie it into something from an international level. But this guy doesn't look like he has anything to do with Iran at all. He's one ugly guy. You know, I had a clip earlier from Inside Edition. I happened to have another Inside Edition clip. We used to play more Inside Edition, I think, back in the day.

Starting point is 02:08:40 So it was fun to see what they're up to. And they had this story as well with a tag. Five Secret Service agents have been placed on leave following last month's assassination attempt in Pennsylvania. There are multiple Secret Service officials who have been put on leave. At least five Secret Service members put on leave. Four of them are from the Pittsburgh field office, including the special agent in charge. That to me would be a likely indication that the agent in charge made some very bad calls. Trump may be breathing a little easier today

Starting point is 02:09:09 following the arrest of a convicted sex offender who allegedly threatened to kill him. The suspect was arrested last night at a traffic stop in Arizona. Trump learned about the plot moments before this interview with NewsNation at the Arizona border. We're in danger standing here talking, so let's not talk any longer. No, I know about it, but they don't want me standing here.

Starting point is 02:09:29 They don't want you standing here either. Oh man, I pray for him. It would be pretty bad. Six weeks, yes, well, typical. We have some real problems here in America with our intelligence community. Real problems. This Solingen in Germany, I'm familiar with Solingen. Nothing's really far from Holland, but this is not that far from Holland. I have the ABC report and then we have a late breaking report from Deutsche Welle. Here's ABC giving us the rundown.

Starting point is 02:10:05 Tonight, an urgent manhunt now underway in Germany for the person authorities say is responsible for a violent stabbing attack in the city of Zollingen Friday night. ISIS now claiming responsibility for the incident, which left at least three people dead and eight more injured. The city's mayor saying, last night our hearts were torn apart.

Starting point is 02:10:26 We in Zollingen are full of horror and grief. The emergency calls coming in just after 9.30pm local time. The unidentified individual attacking people with a knife in the middle of the crowded festival of diversity, commemorating the city's 650th anniversary. An organizer at a stage nearby urging festival goers to keep calm, but also your eyes open because the perpetrator is on the run.

Starting point is 02:10:52 The crime scene cordoned off. Forensics teams searching the area for evidence. The attack occurring in the audience in front of this stage. The lights above it still operating today. As mourners gather nearby, a growing memorial of flowers and candles honoring the victims. Two men ages 56 and 67 and a 56 year old woman did not survive. Police announcing a 15 year old is now under arrest. They say they don't believe he was the attacker, but suspect him of knowing about it in advance.

Starting point is 02:11:23 Tonight, a police operation underway at this refugee housing complex. After they say they received a tip in the case, authorities making a second arrest there. Yeah, so it turns out this guy starts stabbing people in the neck. I have boots on the ground for this. Shouted, Alawakbar. Somehow this is blamed on ISIS. But if you listen to the Deutsche Welle report, we quickly see that this is just another unhappy newcomer.

Starting point is 02:11:54 German police say a 26 year old Syrian man has confessed to carrying out a knife attack in the western city of Zollingen that killed three people and injured eight others. Earlier the so-called Islamic State claimed it was behind Friday night's attack on the festival but provided no evidence. Police and prosecutors report that the suspect turned himself in. Police officers move in on a refugee center in Zollingen. They detained one man and questioned several others. We are getting a lot of tips and we have to investigate every single one of them.

Starting point is 02:12:30 When a tip becomes more concrete, then we take action. We have to wait for the results of this investigation and then we can say more. Earlier, the center of Sollingen was cordoned off and the search for the killer widened. The attack during a diversity festival has left the city in shock. Yeah, so the whole diversity festival part, this is the new normal. You look at knife crime. Of course, there are no guns in Europe to speak of. A man was stabbed in the center of Amsterdam, actually not far, I mean, around the corner

Starting point is 02:13:03 almost from where I used to live, Przsegracht, Roosengracht. I mean that is a stone's throw from my old house. That happened yesterday, the day before. South Wales, Newport, another stabbing. Sydney, six people injured after knife man rampage. And the common denominator, I hate to say it, is asylum seekers and immigrants in general, that is the common denominator, and it's just being papered over with, oh, it's ISIS, please. So it's- ISIS, unhappy newcomer, I think,

Starting point is 02:13:38 is the term we're looking for. That's a good show title, too, unhappy newcomer. Yeah. You know, when's unhappy newcomers, they're here in the United States, they've let in 10 million of them. More, more than that probably. Or 20, 10 to 20. But I'll go conservative and say 10, just to be nice. When do they become unhappy and start doing what they, We can use guns here so it'd be, you know.

Starting point is 02:14:05 If you shoot somebody in the middle of a crowd, it makes such a noise that people are alerted. Guns are safer than knives. Yeah, knives cause much more destruction, and it's really painful. Did you recall two shows ago, we were talking about that bogative story about the 2.9 billion social security numbers, which of course is not true.

Starting point is 02:14:30 Yeah, right. More yes. And I said, be on the lookout for some kind of legislation. Well, this came from multiple sources. The Biden administration is working to expedite widespread adoption of digital IDs, including driver's licenses, and it will be put into a draft executive order. And it looks like login.gov will be the portal that we will be asked to use for this. Oh, that'll be hacked. Yeah. the portal that we will be asked to use for this. Oh, that'll be hacked. Yeah. I mean, it's probably the worst idea ever.

Starting point is 02:15:09 Eva. Eva. But it is coming. An executive order. And how long will it take before you need that to do anything? Your ISP will require it to go online. I mean, you can just see it coming down Broadway. I know you think it's un-American, which it is, but I feel they're going to do this. They don't want people being anonymous online. That's the ultimate goal. Ultimate. The public's one account for government.

Starting point is 02:15:35 I'm looking at it now. Blogin.gov. Blogin.gov is for you individuals. Use one account for secure private access to participating government agencies. Yeah baby. One account for government. Learn how to create an account now. Yes, go ahead create an account. Get ahead, get a jump on it John. Email address. We recommend a personal email address that you'll always be able to access rather than a work email address.

Starting point is 02:16:07 You already have an account with log in doubt. Gov with that email address. We'll send you an email to let you know how you can reset your password and oh yeah, okay. Yeah. Secure passwords. Yes. One or more. Oh, now you need this.

Starting point is 02:16:21 You need, uh, one or more authentication methods such as face or touch for unlock security key, authentication application, but that's the one, federal government employee or military identification. And it's less secure if you use a test, a text or voice message or backup codes. You know what Graphene OS just released? You know, Graphene OS is this alternative, de-Googled Android operating system, which many smart people use. Yeah, finagled, yeah.

Starting point is 02:16:56 Finagled, yeah. So they just released a new feature. You can add, so you know, you can, you log in with your passcode, you know, your bunch of numbers, like a number pad, blah, blah, blah. They've added a feature where you can have a secondary sequence of numbers. And if you enter that, so, you know, the police will say,

Starting point is 02:17:15 give us your PIN code, give us your PIN code, unlock your phone. And you give them that code, it immediately starts erasing the entire device. Oh, you give them the second code? Yeah. Isn't that cool? So the second code is a kill switch. Yes, it's fantastic.

Starting point is 02:17:30 I love it. Yeah. No, it's a great idea until they... Well, they won't be happy. Well, they won't be happy. What if they grab the phone? No, they grab the phone and then what? They'll say, give me your passcode. And I'll say, okay. And then they get the phone. No, they grab the phone and then what? They'll say, give me your passcode.

Starting point is 02:17:45 And I'll say, okay. And then they get the fake passcode. And if they smart enough to see it's a Grafino OS, they know you're trying to scam them and they won't enter it. Well, then they won't get in, will they? Cause they'll have to kill me to get my passcode. You know.

Starting point is 02:18:02 Bamboo splints up the fingernails, you'll give it up. No, that sounds American. Yeah, totally. Not yet. Not yet. So we had a preemptive strike on Hezbollah. Have you noticed the different ways of pronouncing it? I do like the kind of per the- We need to stand on this. Hezbollah. Hezbollah. Have you noticed the different ways of pronouncing it? I do like the kind of the...

Starting point is 02:18:26 We need to standardize. Hezbollah. Hezbollah. Hezbollah. But most say Hezbollah and watching all of the DNC footage, people just be talking like this and all of a sudden, and then it's like, haza. Blah, blah, blah, blah. I'm just talking like this and I'm saying so, haza.

Starting point is 02:18:42 Yes, like French, Canadian, French, where they drop in English words out of the blue. It's just like Khaza. Khaza. Khaza. Hezbollah. Khaza. Hezbollah. Khaza. I like my Khaza. Hezbollah. It's strange. Strange. But that's code.

Starting point is 02:19:02 It's kind of like Ukraine. That's new as well. If you're in the milieu, that's code. It's kind of like Ukraine. That's new as well. If you're in the milieu, it's Ukraine, not Ukraine, Ukraine. Anyway, let's see. I think we have a report here. More tensions in the Middle East this morning after the Israeli military carried out preemptive airstrikes in Lebanon early this morning on what it deemed quote terror targets.

Starting point is 02:19:24 Israel claimed Hezbollah was preparing to fire hundreds of rockets into Israeli territory, so it acted first. Hezbollah says they are carrying out strikes toward Israel in response to the killing of a top military commander last month. This comes ahead of a ceasefire summit that is scheduled to happen today in Cairo. Tel Aviv's airport had to briefly suspend flights, but resumed operations shortly after. And US officials say they are monitoring the situation closely. I'd say they're a little bit apart. If one side wants to send rockets and the other side does a preemptive strike.

Starting point is 02:19:56 I don't think your ceasefire talks are going that well, but it doesn't matter because right on cue, Lady G pops in on Tapper Senator we have a we have a lot to get to Thanks for joining us I want to start with the news overnight that Israel's military said it launched preemptive strikes Against the terrorist group Hezbollah in Lebanon Hezbollah launched strikes back towards Israel This comes as hostage and ceasefire talks are set to resume in Cairo today How should the u.s. Respond to what's going on in the Middle East?

Starting point is 02:20:27 And what is your message to get the ceasefire and hostage release deal across the finish line? Well, number one, I think we've got to remember that October the 7th attack was generated, in my view, to stop normalization between Saudi Arabia and Israel. It's a nightmare for Iran and her proxies, for the Arabs and the Israelis to reconcile and make peace and take the region in a different direction. So as to the hostages, I would hold Iran responsible for their well-being.

Starting point is 02:20:58 If I were the state of Israel, I would tell the Ayatollah, if these people do not come home alive, the ones that are left left alive and if we don't get the bodies of the fallen we're gonna blow up your oil refineries yeah that's the only way you're ever gonna get the hostages released is to put pressure on Iran in fact I would say bomb them bomb them and then bomb them again yeah baby bomb them bomb them bomb them, bomb them again. Yep. Lindsay, warmonger Lindsay. Bomb, you know, strap him to a bomb. There's a plan. Find him very annoying. Pick up this clip. This is off. It was to a goal topic.

Starting point is 02:21:40 Come closer to the mic. You're not hitting the gate. I'm sorry. This is some band clippage that showed up again on X, which is typical of Musk. It would let the stuff, then it disappeared once more. This is the band, I just, this clip has been sitting here for weeks. I've been wanting to play it. This is the band clip. This is, you'll like this.

Starting point is 02:22:05 Yeah. I'm trying to find something that says, has the word band in it. And I don't see it. Yeah. I look for nine 11. Oh, this. Yes. Yes.

Starting point is 02:22:13 So this is a long, this is a fairly good clip. I'm surprised. I'm surprised we haven't talked about this. It has been on the, it's a two minute clip of all a compilation. Somebody put together of all the band clips during 9-eleven There was all these reports that came in from various Quarters at PBS the networks everybody in between work and audio Yes, it does. This is a very good audio clip actually, okay

Starting point is 02:22:40 Oh, it's just all the band clips that kind of indicate that, well, you know, something's fishy. Something doesn't make sense. All right, finally I'm going to introduce Lieutenant Robert Medeiros. He was our first incident commander at the scene. Good evening. My name is Lieutenant Robert Medeiros, M-E-D-A-I-R-O-S, Lieutenant with the Arlington County Police Department here in Arlington, Virginia.

Starting point is 02:23:01 We arrived within minutes after the crash. I couldn't believe what happened. And they said it was a plane, and I didn't see any pieces of any plane, and I couldn't believe that a plane hit the building. Did you see the plane come in, sir? No. I didn't see no plane, didn't hear no plane. You know, like I said, all I heard was the impact and then the plane. This huge ball fire came up over the building. Outside the Pentagon, CNN's military affairs correspondent Jamie McIntyre. And Jamie, you the plane. This huge ball fire came up over the building. Outside the Pentagon, CNN's military affairs correspondent, Jamie McIntyre. Jamie, you

Starting point is 02:23:29 got very close to where that plane went down. That's right, Judy. A while ago, I walked right up to next to the building. From my close-up inspection, there's no evidence of a plane having crashed anywhere near the Pentagon. The only site is the actual side of the building that's crashed in, and the only pieces left that you can see are small enough that you could pick up in your hand. There are no large tail sections, wing sections,

Starting point is 02:23:55 a fuselage, nothing like that anywhere around. We were on the scene early this morning when all of the workers were literally pouring out of this building, and here's what some of them had to say about today's event. Getting ready to do my town trip. And one young black lady was running down the hall screaming and hollering saying, Get out, get out. It was a bomb. And so everybody was like, everybody stopped and looked.

Starting point is 02:24:19 And then there were some more people running and screaming, Holly, get out, it is a bomb. And then when I was exiting out the door, they say it was a bomb and everybody look up it was all black smoke. Just finished our staff meeting somebody said told us about the New York tragedy we turn on CNN and all of a sudden I hear a boom myself oftentimes in the Pentagon you hear machinery falling or this or that, but this was a little different. And about a minute later, somebody ran into the office saying bomb and everybody just

Starting point is 02:24:51 starts running out. When George Bush and Al Gore ran for president, they had three debates. Nobody said, what are you going to do when the twin trade towers come down and the Pentagon's bomb, the Pentagon's bombbed. And the Pentagon's bombed. Yeah, that's great. Season of Reveal. None of the Millennials believe this, believe that the story, none of them believe it. They're like, that's you boomers, boomers. You know, you got hoax by that

Starting point is 02:25:26 And you know and the one thing that that is of course our favorite which we've played on the show for a hundred years Was one bullet yeah bullet I Got some text messages people say hey hey, Elon, Elon's live. Elon's live. It's something strange about him. Elon's live. Did you see this? No.

Starting point is 02:25:52 So you get a link and the link is to YouTube suspicious by itself. And it's alive on YouTube. And if you watch long enough, you see it repeat. And I have a little clip. I'm thrilled to share with you an exciting venture Tesla is embarking on, a venture that will accelerate the adoption and appreciation of cryptocurrencies worldwide. We believe in a future where digital currencies play a key role in our lives, enhancing the efficiency, transparency, and inclusivity of financial transactions.

Starting point is 02:26:23 To celebrate this event and show our appreciation to you, our esteemed followers, I am delighted to announce a special cryptocurrency giveaway. And there's a QR code and then you know you're buying something that doesn't exist. I mean, it was, I'd give it a six on the scale of AI fakery. But it was enough for people to text me and say, Hey, something's up with this. It was the right voice tone, but not the right intonation at all. It was, the intonation was off. He doesn't, he didn't have any, uh, uh, I mean,

Starting point is 02:27:02 he really cannot talk that long without flubbing. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. That was the giveaway right there. And it's much easier when you see him speaking and the mouth was reasonably in sync, but not all the time. It's so easy to understand how people get scammed by this. And this cryptocurrency thing, I've seen this on X itself, where it says Elon, you know, airdrop.

Starting point is 02:27:32 I'm airdropping my token. So a lot of fakery. There was a funny moment that happened in Australia. A Google lady, executive, I forget her name, she was testifying via, well, what does Google have? Does Google own, they don't have Zoom, maybe it was Zoom, I don't know. No, it wasn't Zoom.

Starting point is 02:27:58 Did you see it? No, but I know it wasn't Zoom because Google would never use it. Well, maybe the Australian Senate uses it because there were senators asking this Google lady about AI and responsible AI. You know, is it responsible? And she's, it's so lame. She's literally reading from her screen.

Starting point is 02:28:21 You can see her. I mean, it looks so dumb but then this happens. This approach starts with research to inform model development that encompasses topics such as data protection and adversarial testing. Let's explore responsible AI across the life cycle. That's a great statement. It highlights the importance. There is Google stepping in to be responsible on my side. Since 2012 our researchers have published more than 300 papers on the topic of responsible AI. So this boneheads phone all of a sudden starts going, that's great.

Starting point is 02:28:52 Yes, let's talk about responsible AI. That's a great statement in the middle of her statement. And this is exactly what this stupid hearing was about. And so the Senator comes back and says, can I ask what interrupted you earlier when you were talking and we heard a voice? Is AI helping you on this call? Have you got a screen there that's helping with answers? I do wish we had an AI screen for that purpose. AI is built into all of Google's products,

Starting point is 02:29:24 whether you're doing maps or what a complete in search or helping you with drafting your emails. Our Google assistant is, and our products on the Google Pixel phones are using here in Google. It's responsive to the common. That's cute. That's a cute clip. Yeah.

Starting point is 02:29:41 It's flanged a bit though. It's kind of hard to hear. Yeah, I know. I know. I'm going to. That's cute. That's a cute clip. Yeah. It's flanged a bit though. It's kind of hard. Yeah, I know.

Starting point is 02:29:49 I know. So I've been talking to, well, once a week we do a board meeting, which is a podcast, we talked to all the podcasting 2.0 developers and there is a, I think a very valid use case for AI that, uh, that goes beyond, you know, the Noah, gender on your bigotry against it. Yeah. But, uh, no agenda, art generator is bad songs that we won't play.

Starting point is 02:30:15 Um, in software development, um, it, it apparently is incredibly useful with auto completing, with, I've heard guys who I've been working with for years say, it's like magic. It knew what I want. And in software development, there's a lot of iteration, a lot of repetition sometimes. Yeah, it's tedious. It's tedious, yes. And particularly, I think it's called PyFire or something for PHP development. There are some AI models that are, from what I understand, just phenomenally good at what they do.

Starting point is 02:31:00 The funny thing is that most of these are being run locally. It runs on your own machine. It doesn't even run in the cloud. So while it may be very good, I still don't see the big, particularly software development. Is this the big market they're going to go after? But it is working well for them. And so as bigoted as I am, I did want to mention that, that, that there, you know, that's a use case. I don't think it's worth a hundred million, a hundred billion dollars worth of investment, but they are liking it. Yeah. You'd like it too. If you had a bunch of cycles backing you up that

Starting point is 02:31:39 you weren't paying for. No, no, it's running locally. Well, even so. Yeah. I mean, well, the AI stuff is okay. I run AI models here on a computer at home and I, you know, I use it for some stuff, um, you know, like someone said, Hey, can you write me a letter of recommendation? Sure. AI assistant writing your recommendation. recommendation? Sure. It works incredibly well for that. It really does. Yeah, this was a kind of interesting story and I want to get your take on it. On Friday, the president of Botswana experienced holding a huge gem a day after a Canadian company announced it had discovered the world's second largest diamond at the Karawi mine

Starting point is 02:32:37 in the northeast of Botswana. It was so big that President Mogwitzi Masisi had to use both hands to hold it. And here is his reaction. Both. You have to have both. What? So this is the 2492 carats there. God is good. Good is good. Aren't diamonds really worth anything anymore? Seems that everyone is going for the lab-grown diamonds these days.

Starting point is 02:33:16 I think that diamond's worth something. Well that one's got to be worth something. But it just... That's a good question. It's probably worth exploring. Uh, but the lab growing, it costs money to make a lab grown diamond and you can only get them so big. Right. Oh, oh, there's a size limitation on lab. Oh, you can't make anything like that.

Starting point is 02:33:36 No, no. The size of a softball is huge. I know that, but you know, you keep hearing people saying, you know, I mean hearing people saying, you know, I mean, so a really nice engagement ring lab grown diamond 500 bucks versus, you know, five, 10, 15,000. And they're just as pretty. Um, you know, I think diamonds may be falling out of favor as a, uh, as a, uh,

Starting point is 02:34:03 a store of value. We need to talk to an expert or to somebody, you know, falling out of favor as a store of value. We need to talk to an expert or somebody, you know, I hate to be redundant, but there's somebody, so there's a producer in our audience that knows exactly. Moisha. Moisha. Moisha. Yeah, and he's over there, he's in New York.

Starting point is 02:34:23 So there's somebody that knows the answer to this. It's not a question, it's just like, we need some background around it. We're interested. How big can you make them? How much do they cost? What is the real expense? How big is this ring you're describing for 500 bucks?

Starting point is 02:34:41 Is it a whole carrot? I don't know. I don't know. I've just heard some reports and you know, people talking about lab grown. And I think there's even ads, probably heard an ad like, Oh honey, it's beautiful. That's right. You know, it used to be, what was the formula?

Starting point is 02:34:58 Three months salary is what you should spend on, which is a great, a great mind control. Something, a formula women created. Yeah. Uh-huh. Yeah. And what do you do with this thing? 2,493 carats. What do you do with it?

Starting point is 02:35:18 That's some rock. You have to break it up. You can't. Baby, I got a good news and bad news. Good news is I got a giant rock for you. Bad news is it's going to weigh you down. 2,493. Some joker should just put a setting around it.

Starting point is 02:35:37 Just for one time. Hey, I guess the high court has finally spoken in Venezuela. Venezuela's top court has ratified the results of what quickly became the most controversial election in the country's recent history. Venezuela held presidential elections on the 28th of July, where longtime president Nicolas Maduro was declared victor, despite a slew of allegations of fraud and voting irregularities. On the basis of the opinion of highly qualified electoral experts we verify in an irrefutable and unequivocal manner the results of the presidential election of July 28 2024 where the citizen

Starting point is 02:36:21 Nicolas Maduro was elected as president of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela for the constitutional period 2025 to 2031. Man, that's crazy. I mean, it seems like that was pretty rigged. Yeah, and so was the judge. That's what would happen here if we, you know, keep going the direction we're going. Yeah. Trump's new thing is we're going to make it too big to rig.

Starting point is 02:36:53 Yeah, sure. Good luck. I have a Stuart Varney clip. You know, just before you move on to Stuart Varney, I'm at this point, I'm a little more concerned if Trump wins. Because I think the people who we saw at the convention, those types and their ascendants, no, that's not the word. What is the term I'm looking for?

Starting point is 02:37:25 Ascendants. Yeah. Ascendants. Yes, ascendants. I'm worried they're going to go nuts. They're nuts already. No, but they're violently nuts. Black Lives Matter nuts.

Starting point is 02:37:37 No, that's what happened when he first got elected. He had the woman in green screaming out from her knees. Yeah, but I'm talking about violent causing destruction, setting fires. Here's what my take on that is. I agreed with the basic thinking, but these soy boys and the guys who were in the Palestinian protests, they were supposed to storm the convention. They don't have the balls to do this stuff. Yeah, maybe get some black guys to do it.

Starting point is 02:38:04 But if you have a lot of black voters that vote for Trump, I just don't think they have what it takes. Hey, get some black guys to do it. Okay, John. Well, that's Antifa, or BLM, is mostly black guys. No, but okay. Well, okay, well, whatever the case is, they've lost their testosterone.

Starting point is 02:38:24 They were, Democrats appealed to this weenie group. I mean, there was a couple that was showing, I didn't get the video, but a couple bragging about all the sex they had. And it was, uh, one of these, you know, tick talks. It was a tick talk with these two delegates. And they were bragging about all the sex they had, but it was the kind of sex they were have the, it was a gay guy and some influencing girl and the gay and they were bragging about all the sex they had, but the kind of sex they were having, it was a gay guy and some influencing girl, and they were both talking about how much, you know, dick they got, literally, and it was like the gay guy was getting it and so was she. They weren't

Starting point is 02:38:56 having it together, these two, and it's just like, it's a disgusting group. I mean, the people are just, they're lost. It's a lost cause and yeah, maybe they want to be violent, but they just go back into their hole. Oh, there you go. Back into your hole. Back into your hole. It's going to be, it would be disappointing to them. But if you remember Rachel Maddow crying when Trump got elected in 2016. Oh, it'll be great for the show.

Starting point is 02:39:22 These people are pathetic. It'll be great for them either way. I mean, you get, here's the kind of people the show. These people are pathetic. It'll be great for the show. Either way, it's great for the show. I mean, here's the kind of people you get. I have a clip. This is a guy, just a casual man on the street, guy trying to get a job, I guess. But this man on the street is a kid and he's interviewing some pro-Kamala person. And this is where it goes.

Starting point is 02:39:40 Trump or Kamala? Kamala. I like her and I'm a Democrat. And why do you like her? Because she will be a good female president and I would love to have a good female president for the U.S. And what do you think she'll do good for our country? She'll actually help our country more than Donald Trump would do

Starting point is 02:40:01 because she is smart and she's more reliable. And what do you think are some exact things she'd do? She'll do lower income and lower taxes. So she'd lower everyone's income? Yes. Is that a good thing? That is a good thing. What do you think about Donald Trump?

Starting point is 02:40:21 Donald Trump is the worst president in the whole wide world. How come? Because he hurt the Capitol building and he started World War III. All right, here we go. Step back, you deserve it. My Lord. Kamala will lower your income. That's a good thing. And Trump hurt the Capitol building. Oh, it's great. Well, you know what? You want to make predictions about the election? That's a good thing. And Trump hurt the Capitol building. Oh, it's great. Well, you know what?

Starting point is 02:40:45 You want to make predictions about the election? You want to step it up? You want to make predictions? It might be a little premature. Sure, I'll make a prediction. Well, let's just say if everyone stays alive, and that's on both sides, if everyone stays alive as it is today.

Starting point is 02:41:03 So with Vance as VP, Walz as VP, Trump as P and Harris as P and then we throw in Bobby the op that he'll stay in and do his stuff for Trump. What do you think? Yeah, Trump wins. Yeah I think so too. I think big. Well, I don't know, but I mean, I think he could win big if they don't try to fix it. Even if they try to fix it, I think it's going to be too hard now.

Starting point is 02:41:35 If it stays status quo, I mean, anything could happen. There could be some huge distraction. I mean, obviously, but today, as of today, I think you're right. It would surprise me if he doesn't win. Um, and we still have another what? 75, 80 days to go. And they still haven't talked to Kamala and who knows what's going to happen at the debate. I mean, he could get drugged and pull a Biden. I don't know. I mean, the debate will be the turning point because if she has to talk,

Starting point is 02:42:13 then the vote, her support disappears if she actually has to talk. The thing is, you have to remember this, and I would like to go back and check this out. and I would like to go back and check this out. When she debated Pence, she beat him. I don't remember. I do. And it was, Pence was glib, he was arrogant, he'd be, Pence has got no personality, he was no good. I think Pence technically should have won because he's had better things than he had.

Starting point is 02:42:49 But he was just this, he's like a robot. He's terrible. He doesn't have the personality, like a Vance has a lot of personality. He's got tons of personality. What if we were advising the Harris campaign, which let's face it, we'll never get that gig. That's for sure. What would we advise her to do in a debate with Trump? What would be the way to do it? What is her strength? What is her superpower that she can use? I don't see it.

Starting point is 02:43:15 I think we have to go back and examine what she did to Pence. And it was mostly blocking and tackling, blocking, not tackling, but blocking, whatever argument you had, denying what the opponent says, and then lying a lot. I only have one clip, very short, that we have from the Pence-Kamala debate. Let's see what it is. ... pulling back regulation... Thank you, thank you, Vice President Pence. ... releasing American energy, fighting for free and fair trade, and all the best on the line if Joe

Starting point is 02:43:46 Biden and Kamala Harris are away. That's a good segue into our third debate. That's nothing. I don't even remember her debating. Debate. Let me see. I do. And I think that was the debate where the fly landed on him.

Starting point is 02:44:02 Remember that? That was the debate where the fly landed on him. Remember that? That was good. He was wandering around on his hair and here and there and he was oblivious. The guy was no good. I mean, Pence was, and then he had the gall to think that he could run for president. He was just a guy with the hollow shell of a man. Here's a Kamala on Donald Trump. Let's see what this is.

Starting point is 02:44:23 Also short. Pelosi has said that members of Congress have to be, in her words, fair to the president and give him a chance to exonerate himself. You've already said that based on everything you've seen, you would vote to remove him from office. Is that being fair to the president? Well, it's just being observant because he has committed crimes in plain sight. I mean, it's shocking.

Starting point is 02:44:44 But he told us who he was. Maya Angelou told us years ago, listen to somebody when they tell you who they are the first time. During that election, Donald Trump told us he could shoot somebody on Fifth Avenue and get away with it. So that's probably what she'll do. She'll just keep bringing up all these things. Very fine people.

Starting point is 02:44:58 Yeah, the tropes. Yeah, the tropes. The tropes. Yeah. Very fine people. It's good. Losers and... The tropes, the tropes, yeah. Very fine people, it's good. Here's another one. Losers and...

Starting point is 02:45:07 Yeah, looters. And he has consistently since he won been selling out the American people. He's been selling out working people, he's been selling out our values, he's been selling out national security, and on this issue with Ukraine, he has been selling out our democracy. Yeah, but it's different when she has to actually face him. She didn't face him. So, hmm, I don't know. I don't know. But if she gets under his skin and he starts going off, that'll be bad for him. Yeah. And she could do that. She's annoying. Yeah. Yeah. She can do that.

Starting point is 02:45:41 Now, he's having Tulsi Gabbard help him. So I hear. On the debates, supposedly. And they asked her about this in one of the shows and she says, well, you know, it's not that much I can do because he's, you know, he's got a style and I can help here and there. I don't know if she's, cause she's Tulsi Gabbard was very good at getting under people's skins. And she got under Kamala's skin, and hopefully Trump will use the same technique she did.

Starting point is 02:46:09 Maybe that's what she's there for. Let me see, it was Tulsi, Kamala, no, Kamala, Kamala. I have a bunch, I had a couple shows ago, I had the Tulsi-Kamala clip. Tulsi attacks Kamala's record. Here we go. So let's talk about the debates last night because you had quite a moment you said. Senator Harris says she's proud of her record

Starting point is 02:46:33 as a prosecutor and that she'll be a prosecutor president, but I'm deeply concerned about this record. There are too many examples to cite, but she put over 1,500 people in jail for marijuana violations and then laughed about it when she was asked if she ever smoked marijuana. She blocked evidence that would have freed an innocent man from death row until the courts forced her to do so. She kept people in prison beyond their sentences to use them as cheap labor for the state of California and she fought to keep cash bail system. You know, if they go back and forth and are they even doing a debate?

Starting point is 02:47:10 I mean, I hear Trump saying that she's she pulled out and she won't do the debate and there's all kinds of noise about that. That's only the Fox debate. Oh, okay. She won't do a Fox debate. She's got friendly fire at ABC ABC and ABC will cover for her. So that's not good. And so they're going to do the ABC debate even though Trump has them in litigation.

Starting point is 02:47:35 Trump should just run on his economic record during his four years and that's it. Then not go- Yeah, that's not going to happen. Oh God. Are these debates on show days by any chance? Then not going. Yeah, that's not going to happen. Oh God. Are these debates on show days by any chance? Well the one that we're talking about is the 10th of September so we can look that up. Okay, 10th of September.

Starting point is 02:47:57 Yes. My friend, my heart skipped a beat when I first read this. Tuesday. Oh, there's Trump with Marjorie Taylor Green in front of the Trump plane. Okay. It's another text message. I hate you people. Hey, just news came out. It's very, very troubling. The Atlantic Ocean is cooling at a mysteriously fast rate. Cooling? That's not, that's bull crap.

Starting point is 02:48:26 That's not global warming. In June, temperatures in the Atlantic were two to five degrees Fahrenheit hotter than normal in much of the ocean with some areas getting as much as nine degrees warmer than average. Those temperatures weren't a one-off as the Atlantic had regularly seen record-breaking levels since March of 2023.

Starting point is 02:48:44 However, NOAA data shows Atlantic sea surfer temperatures have cooled at a surprising rate since May. Oh no. They don't, and they can't, the new scientists, they can't explain it. Sunspots. Well, shit. Yeah, they can't, no one has looked at the sun.

Starting point is 02:49:04 They haven't looked at the sun for any of this. Never forbid the sun be taken into account. You want to do your Varney clip before we get out of here? Yeah, this is the last clip before we get to the break. It's a good clip. It's about giving away our money. Oh, yay. A taxpayer funded group is offering $30,000 to new home buyers.

Starting point is 02:49:23 Lauren, you cannot apply if you're an American citizen. What's with that? Why would an American citizen apply for a taxpayer funded program to get $30,000 for a new home? I mean, it's wild. The group is called Hacienda Community Development Corporation. They offer payment assistance in Oregon to DACA recipients, asylees, green card holders, basically any non-U.S. citizen. This is state sponsored discrimination, Stuart. That's what it is. I mean, it's crazy. That's their goal. They want to open up housing and the American dream to non-U.S. citizens. OK, I guess that's the reason why we that's why we have an open border because eventually

Starting point is 02:50:05 These folks will vote and vote Democrat because they're the people that have been that's what this is about Part of me wants to say crazy things happen in Oregon, but I think this will go far beyond the Oregon There is a critical shortage of houses across the United States, particularly in Oregon and then they're giving 30k to Non-taxpayers. Yeah, which will raise the price of houses. For everybody else. Hey, who's Trump's economic guide? He doesn't seem to have someone out there with economic chops. Where's Kudlow?

Starting point is 02:50:36 Well, Kudlow is still doing his show. Mnuchin showed up at the Republican convention to hang out. I don't know if he's going to use it. Manuchin's, and he can't use it. Oh man, I heard, what's his face? The mooch, Scaramucci on Horowitz's show, the Discipline Investor. Oh, he hates Trump. Wixen's, I mean, how did that happen and why?

Starting point is 02:51:01 Well, Trump said, no good, he's a liar. He hates you, he loves you, then he hates you, and he's no, Trump said no good. He's a liar. He hates you. He loves you. Then he hates you and he's no good. And buy Bitcoin. That was pretty much the interview. Yeah, the mooch. Trump needs a name.

Starting point is 02:51:16 He needs a name in there. Some of the guy, he needs a surrogate name. Yeah, because that's what, that's all people care about, I think. At least that's what we'd recommend. Who would we recommend? Jamie Dimon. Yeah, that's not going to happen either. Okay, let's thank our producers who came in $50 and above. We read every single name and location.

Sometimes you wanna go hang out with all the nights and days. You wanna be where you want me. Triggered or held to blame. Man, I'm sucking on the ISOs lately.

Starting point is 03:04:17 We always like to choose our end of show ISOs around this time in the show, you know, just to show you how the sausage is made. Not that we do any other prep on this show, except individually we do a lot. I only have one, so this is my entry. Douchey. This sucks. No, you didn't hear it.

Starting point is 03:04:35 Right in here, let's do it again. Hey. Douchey. Douchey. That's it? That's it. I have nothing, I failed. I haven't got much either, I only got two.

Starting point is 03:04:44 Okay, what do you have? Let's see if we got something better. I have nothing. I failed. I haven't got much either. I only got two. Okay. What do you have? Let's see if we got something better. I got joke. A joke. That's RFK.

Starting point is 03:04:52 That's pretty funny. And reputation. Your reputation for quality is unheard of in this industry. That's too long. It's just, it's four seconds. It's too long. It has to be three or less. It's too long. You said it or FK.

Starting point is 03:05:08 A joke. A joke. Okay, we'll take the joke. We'll have to take the joke. Hey everybody, it's time once again for that phenomenal non sponsored non money making tip of the day. All right, this is everybody's favorite segment in the show, the tip of the day. These are very handy and there's, we're not doing any shopping deals, no FTC problems here. Instead, we just give you a straight up tip that is handy and useful for you. Enzyme laundry detergent. So in the 60s and 70s, there was this fad.

Starting point is 03:05:48 It never caught on, but it came out of Europe because we are eliminating the phosphates from detergent because they were causing all kinds of algae blooms everywhere because they were basically poisoning the rivers. And so phosphates were taken out of detergents. basically poisoning the rivers. And so phosphates were taken out of detergents. And I got a lecture from a guy at Procter and Gamble about this, he says, that's why you never buy powdered detergents, you buy liquid.

Starting point is 03:06:15 Because the substitutes for these phosphates were always, you couldn't make it into a powder anymore, you had to just buy liquid detergent. So buying powdered detergent is no good. Not necessarily true at the competition, which was an enzyme product. These were promoted in the 60s and 70s. Biz was one of the big names,

Starting point is 03:06:36 which had been bought and sold and then reformulated. I don't even know if it has enzymes anymore. But enzymes require, you have to use cold water and you have to soak the clothes for like hours. Oh, and is that when they turned marketing around and said cold wash? That part of it, yeah. They came up with the cold wash stuff,

Starting point is 03:06:59 but cold wash really works best with using enzymes. And so I use Pro Enzyme. I've had good luck with that, but there's other brands. You have to do a little research and find something you like. But the problem is you do have to soak. So you get your wash going and you have to soak for like anywhere from two to 24 hours. And so it's inconvenient for the public.
