Starting point is 00:00:00 Well, you know the way I see it, the way the government coming in. Adam Curry, John C. Devorak. It's 30 October 17, 2024. This is your award winning Gifbo Nation Media Assassination Episode 1704. This is No Agenda. Celebrating six weeks in Fred and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country right here in FEMA Region Number 6. In the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
Starting point is 00:00:27 And from Northern Silicon Valley where we've noticed that for the first time in 8 years they've brought out the B-2 bombers to bomb the crap out of Yemen. I'm John C. Dvorak. It's crackpot and buzzkill. In the morning. Well, speaking of bombs. Did you read that in the Main Street? Was that on CBS News?
Starting point is 00:00:46 No, I got it from Dude Name Muhammad. Like you did, I think. No, I got it from the Defense One newsletter. I mean, we're bombing the crap out of the Houthis. This isn't the top of the news. I got here Dude Name Muhammad, who is our boots on the ground in the region. Yeah, we have a couple of them. ITM gents, operation New Order is progressing well.
Starting point is 00:01:14 Yaya Sinwar is dead. The backup of the backup leader Hezbollah is dead. And American B2s are bombing the Houthis. Almost there before November, so Trump can finish it up with a phone call. Thank you for your courage, dude named Mohammed. He's got the right idea. He does. Finish it off with a phone call.
Starting point is 00:01:34 Yeah. Before you continue, we had a six week cycle moment here in Fredericksburg this morning. Oh, in Fredericksburg of all places. Yes. At 10 a.m., the Gillespie County Sheriff's Office deputies conducted a search and inventory of a U-Haul box truck at the impound lot. They had apparently arrested some dude who was driving through Fredericksburg from Washington state.
Starting point is 00:01:58 At that time the San Antonio Police Department bomb squad was notified. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms Explosives and the Federal Bureau of Investigation all showed up and the search and inventory of the U-Haul stemmed from an arrest that occurred on Friday. The person driving the U-Haul was wanted out of Washington for the theft over $400,000 worth of coins and precious metals which were located in the u-haul along with several explosive devices That were you want to blow up the goods that were removed from the u-haul a few were detonated within the safety zone here in Fredericksburg They detonated them boom over by the Walmart, so this doesn't
Starting point is 00:02:44 Doesn't this have we're gonna blow these things up bill I think over by the Walmart that I'll get some attention. It'll get some news coverage Doesn't this have all the hallmarks of some it does week week brother who they just said? All right, man, you take this and they had and see what else do they find? numerous ammo cans of ammunition a handgun and body armor. This guy was ready. He was ready. Yeah. Woohoo! It's great.
Starting point is 00:03:12 Well, that's probably a better news story than... Let me just go back to the B2 thing. Yeah. In the same newsletter, I want to read this because I didn't see this on CBS. Oh, I can't have that. I didn't see this on CBS. Oh, I can't have that. I didn't see Nora talking about this. Listen to this. Raytheon. You heard anything about Raytheon?
Starting point is 00:03:34 I've heard of them. I hear their stock is up. To pay nearly $1 billion for defrauding the DOD. Oh, what? Yeah. Allegedly bribing Qatari official. The company took in more than 111 million more than it was owed during two separate schemes in connection with the Patriot missile systems and a radar system. Goes on, Raytheon officials said the company is taking, we're taking responsibility for the misconduct.
Starting point is 00:04:07 But it all, but it occurred, listen to this, quote, largely prior to 2020. Oh, Trump, Trump, Trump. This is someone getting back at Trump for that, taking $1.7 billion off of Air Force One. Rewind. Yeah. In August, Raytheon was fined $200 million for the unauthorized export of defense technology to China, Russia, Iran and elsewhere. There you go.
Starting point is 00:04:41 How come this isn't it like running right at the, this would be the top of the news instead of, you know, these various interviews of Kamala. No. There you go. How come this isn't it like running right at this would be the top of the news of you know, these various interviews of Kamala. No, instead we have to go to the lie of the day. The lie of the day we play first the lie of the day as going viral and what everybody is responding to including your vice president and then we shall play it in context because this including your vice president, and then we shall play it in context because this actually comes from Sunday. And I played a few clips. I didn't even realize that they could turn this into another very fine people hoax, but here it is the viral clip.
Starting point is 00:05:16 I think the bigger problem is the enemy from within, not even the people that have come in and destroying our country, by the way, totally destroying our country, the towns, the villages, they're being inundated. Villages. I don't think they're the problem in terms of election day. I think the bigger problem are the people from within. We have some very bad people. We have some sick people, radical left lunatics. And I think they're the, and it should be very easily handled by, if necessary, by national
Starting point is 00:05:43 guard or if really necessary, by the military. So that was, and we'll get to this later, taken that Trump is going to sick the military on you, on you, on you people, on journalists, on people he doesn't like, political enemies. Now, now let's... That's a good one. I feel you. You've got your Muslim speech Twitter. Yeah good one. I like that. Your Muslim speech. Only women do that.
Starting point is 00:06:10 Women do it. Alright, so now we will play this in context as discussed on Maria Bartiromo's Sunday Morning Futures. All over the world, the Congo in Africa, we've taken in hundreds of people from their prisons the Congo,. The Congo in Africa, we've taken in hundreds of people from their prisons.
Starting point is 00:06:26 The Congo, all the way in Africa, many, many countries. The Middle East, we're taking in massive numbers of people and many terrorists and they're coming into our country and they're Middle Eastern terrorists. And from Asia, we're taking in and a lot from South America. There was an Afghan refugee charged with plotting a US Election Day massacre. Nothing surprises me. What about that though? Are you expecting chaos on Election Day? No, I don't think so. Not from the side that votes for Trump. But I'm just wondering if these outside agitators will start up on Election Day. Let's say you win. I mean let's not let's let's remember you've got
Starting point is 00:07:04 50,000 Chinese nationals in this country in the last couple of years. There are people on the terrorist watch list, 350 in the last couple of years. You've got, uh, like you said, 13,000 murderers and 15,000 rapists. Um, what are you expecting? Joe Biden said he doesn't think it's going to be a peaceful election day. Well, he doesn't have any idea what's happening in role fair. As he spends most of his day sleeping. I think the bigger problem is the enemy
Starting point is 00:07:30 from within, not even the people that have come in and destroying our country, by the way, totally destroying our country, the towns, the villages, they're being inundated. But I don't think the other problem in terms of election day, I think the bigger problem are the people from within. We have some very bad people. We have some sick people, radical left lunatics. And I think they're the, and it should be very easily handled by, if necessary, by national guard or if really necessary by the military, because they can't let that happen.
Starting point is 00:08:01 So what Trump is saying here, and it doesn't take a genius to figure it out is Biden has said election day is not going to be calm. Trump says, well, we should bring in the National Guard if it's not calm. But that would be from the sick people who we expect will, if Trump wins, will probably go rioting and doing stuff like Black Lives Matter. It was very obvious what he was saying. Was it obvious to you? If you hear it in context, it's obvious, but that's not what they're playing. So I think this and I'll just play this clip and I'll let you go because I like the idea, by the way, I'll give you this. I like the idea of equating this with
Starting point is 00:08:45 the very fine people hoax. Because they need these hoaxes to make things work. And so I think this was, well we'll talk about it, but this was probably the only- Wait, fortunately Kamala, Kamala, Kamala, she can't use it as saying, the only reason I ran is because of the very fine people. No, but I think this was the only reason she showed up on Bret Baer for this, this would
Starting point is 00:09:11 seem like a sadistic ritual against her by her own team to make her do this. And this is how- I have thoughts on this, on this supposed interview. So I'll play this from CNN, Aaron Burnett, and this pertains to this new hoax. At one point, Harris, visibly angry, she was railing against Trump and his threat to target what he has called the enemy from within. He's the one who talks about an enemy within, an enemy within, talking about the American people, suggesting he would turn the American military on the American people.
Starting point is 00:09:50 We asked just for context, he will not be president on election day. So he is literally saying, well, the Biden administration should clean this up with the National Guard. He won't even have the power to do that on election day. Good point. that they were saying I was like threatening. I'm not threatening anybody. They're the ones doing the threatening. They do phony investigations. I've been investigated more than Alphonse Capone. He was the greatest. No, it's true. It's called weaponization of government. It's a terrible thing. So, Brett, I'm sorry and with all due respect, that clip was not what he has been saying about the enemy within that he has repeated when he's
Starting point is 00:10:46 speaking about the American people. That's not what you just showed. He was asked about that specific- No, no, no. That's not what you just showed in all fairness and respect to you. No, no, no. I'm telling you that was the question that we asked him. You didn't show that, and here's the bottom line. He has repeated it many times. No. And you and I both know that. And you and I both know that he has talked about turning the American military on the American people.
Starting point is 00:11:07 He has talked about going after people who are engaged in peaceful protest. He has talked about locking people up because they disagree with him. This is a democracy. And in a democracy, the President of the United States in the United States of America should be willing to be able to handle criticism without saying he'd lock people up for doing it. And this is what is at stake. Oh, this is what is at stake. I just have to play this 45 seconds from Tim Waltz because he really drove home the message
Starting point is 00:11:42 that they're trying to convey. I say this is a must-win state for Kamala Harris to take the White House. Chief Political Reporter Jason Dimmittman was at the event and two unexpected stops after Walz arrived in the area by plane. All right, here comes Walz. Well, hello, Green Bay.
Starting point is 00:11:55 Good to see you all. Greeting hundreds of supporters inside the KI Convention Center in Green Bay, Vice Presidential candidate Tim Walz standing alongside fellow Democrats, including the governors of Wisconsin and Michigan, Bay, Vice Presidential candidate Tim Walz standing alongside fellow Democrats, including the governors of Wisconsin and Michigan, making the case for not allowing Donald Trump to return to the White House.
Starting point is 00:12:11 Yesterday he went on Fox News, that's a safe place for him, he went on there, and he suggested that he is going to send the military against the enemy from within. Now I want you to think about it. In other words, Americans don't support him. Just to be clear, if any of your neighbors or friends or anybody thinks about that, you know who he's talking about? He's talking about you. And the news media played along with this completely. Just all the all, all in. Now, no agenda. We don't, we're not here to participate
Starting point is 00:12:48 in the culture war agenda. We are here to serve you, to deconstruct your world to the best of our God-given ability. And we will do that today, once again. So this interview made no sense to me. Why would she do this? Well, I thought it was a bad interview. The Fox Eye, well, it wasn't a bad interview. I thought it was a bad interview from Barrett's perspective. Oh, interesting. I thought she steamrolled him. She brought in her normal,
Starting point is 00:13:27 in fact, I want to play this pre-clip. This was this woman, Darmett Dillon, that was on Tucker Carlson. Oh yes, no, no, Harmeet, it's Harmeet. Harmeet. Harmeet, she's a lawyer, and I think- Yeah, she's a lawyer, and she worked with Kamalae and the city, I guess, and she's been around.
Starting point is 00:13:44 Because she's a Republican, isn't she? I think she ran, she ran to be, or she vied to be the chair of the RNC. She was in and around Kamala's circles. Okay. But, but this is the part that I thought was interesting. There's two things in here. One was the pronunciation of her name. They talk about that. And then they talk about the, I think the most significant thing which is what rubs people the wrong way about Kamala, which is the fact that she's a Brahmin. During this period, how did she pronounce her first name? And I ask because she's on video
Starting point is 00:14:16 pronouncing it Kamala and Kamela, two different ways. Kamala. So, I remember her putting the emphasis on the second syllable. So it was like Kamala. Kamala was how she pronounced it. Not Kamala. Not Kamala. Kamala is actually how Indians pronounce it. The name derives from the word for lotus in Sanskrit, which is Komal.
Starting point is 00:14:40 So that is how you're supposed to pronounce it. Is it a conventional name? It's a conventional name. Absolutely. And it's a Brahmin. She's from a Brahmin family. Her mother is Brahmin. And so, you know, high caste background.
Starting point is 00:14:57 I thought she was oppressed. She's a shape-shifter, like I said. So, although, you know, I saw an explanation in one of these liberal publications trying to explain how throughout most of her career, she's passed as African American and not mixed race because of course, not until Tiger Woods became prominent, did people parse out their differences in their racial background. So, you know, it was suggested that she had to pick one or the other early in her career and she largely identified as African-American.
Starting point is 00:15:32 And so she really focused on the African-American community in San Francisco. She identified as African-American. Did she live in a black neighborhood? Did she live in Hunter's Point? She did not live in Hunter's Point. Yeah, no, she lived in a nice condo in the South of Market in the ballpark area. In a white neighborhood, right.
Starting point is 00:15:48 Yeah, absolutely. But she was, quote, focused on the African-American. She was focused on the African-American community. Brahmin. There you go. From a cast. Yes, we have Brahmins that listen to the show. They're responsible Brahmins, I will say.
Starting point is 00:15:57 Yes. We've talked about this, I think, occasionally. Although they have not denounced her. I don't think Brahmins can do that. They're responsible Brahmins, I will say. Yes. We've talked about this, I think, occasionally. Although they have not denounced her. irresponsible Brahmins, I will say. We've talked about this, I think, occasionally.
Starting point is 00:16:05 Although they have not denounced her. I don't think Brahmins can do that. I would like to know what… Is that… Yes. This arrogance that she portrays, this kind of, oh, let me talk. I mean, this look on her face, the whole way she acts is extremely Brahmin. My son… I like this. I mean, you're the Brahman expert, the Brexpert. Well we have a lot of Brahmans in the area and they're in high-tech. They dominate. I'd say they dominate at least sections of high-tech.
Starting point is 00:16:38 Is such a Nadella a Brahman? Oh absolutely. And who's the guy from Google? What's his name? Oh for sure. Okay, Brahmin. They exude a certain arrogance. The Brahmins we have have the same arrogance and they're proud of themselves. It's a caste system in India and they're the top of the caste. The ones that we have are extremely irresponsible because they kind of ignore what's called the noblesse oblige. I think it was called, it's the responsibility of these classes to like, for example, donate to the show. Hello. Oh, I did it already. Oh, you did. That's good. I did it already. Yeah, I'm already off to the races. Hello, hello Brahmins. So, my son who works with a lot of Brahmins says that they have their responsibility.
Starting point is 00:17:33 If we don't have Indian donors, he believes it's because the Brahmins don't donate to the show in any real way that they're obligated to do by their caste because they're the ones who lead the way to other Brahmins. And so since they don't help us at all basically except occasionally, you can go on about them in such a way that's probably not complimentary. And I think that Kamala Harris with her really sits there arrogantly and lectures people is from this culture. It's not from her being black. And I think it rubs people the wrong way. And what we don't need in this country to any extreme is a Brahmin president of the United States. There you go. We're not a class structured system. And I think she rubs people the wrong way.
Starting point is 00:18:29 I don't care how much money she spends. I don't even know how much corruption they can throw at it, but I don't think that she can get in because of that. No, no, she's not gonna be president, no way. So, so Brett Baer does a interview with her that sucked. By the way, even though the Fox sites, Oh, Brett asked to follow up questions. He didn't get anywhere. I saw that afterwards, you know, Oh yes, Brett, I think you really, you were good at steering it back and you were really good. Oh, this is a good, good job, Brett. Good job. By the way, Brett's
Starting point is 00:19:03 kind of got a wide load there. You don't see him normally because he's behind the desk. Yeah. Well, he's a big guy. He's a big guy, yeah. But he is not an interviewer to an extreme, as I would say, I wouldn't call him a good interviewer. And he let her kind of dominate the conversation and give him the old, well, I'm talking, you know, let me finish. She's going on and on. He could, when she says, let me finish my, he said, well, you're not answering the question. I'd let you, what
Starting point is 00:19:35 he should say stuff like, I'd let you finish if you were answering the question. It's a simple question. But he never did any of that and he let her ramble and she went on and on and on. I have a couple of examples. Can I just make a suggestion that people like Bret Baer and Fox in general, that they feel they have to be somewhat cautious just in case she wins so they still have access?
Starting point is 00:20:05 I don't believe that's true. No? Okay. That was, that's what I thought. I thought, ah. I don't think that's true. Okay. I think they're just not that good. No, nobody watches these shows anymore.
Starting point is 00:20:22 Well, there's that. That's a whole different topic of conversation that we both agree on. Everybody's watching The Golden Bachelor. Hello. Oh, I did it again. Oh no. I got to stop. Yes.
Starting point is 00:20:34 As sick as you, you're sick. I know. Okay, I'm going to stop it now. All right. From this moment on, I'm stopping it. Here we go. All right. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:20:42 Hello. Nope. You're not going to get it from me. Nope. I'm done. I'm done with it. I'm done. Okay. I'm sick of myself. I'm disgusted with myself now. Let's start with a summary that NPR gave of the Harris bear. This Harris bear summary NPR. This is what they thought of the thing. thing and NPR and a bunch of I There's a bunch of tick-tockers and everybody in between saying all she cleaned his clock. She's she won Let's listen to the elitist voices elitist voices of America
Starting point is 00:21:23 This is NPR or PBS Democrat Kamala Harris took questions on immigration transgender rights in the economy in a wide-ranging interview conducted by Fox News host Brett Baer. The vice president pushing back on charges she's flip-flopped in terms of her positions. Harris saying my presidency will not be a continuation of Joe Biden's presidency if she wins the White House in November and asked about comments she's made about supporters of GOP rival Donald Trump, Harris Bristle. If you listen to Donald Trump, if you watch any of his rallies, he's the one who tends to demean and belittle and diminish the American people. He's the one who talks about an enemy within, an enemy within, talking about the American
Starting point is 00:22:02 people, suggesting he would turn the American military on the American people. Nye. Speaking at a rally earlier today in Pennsylvania surrounded by more than a hundred Republicans who now say they'll vote for her over Trump, Harris again called Trump unstable and unhinged. I think, I really, since everyone had to do- Don't you think that was the most slanted report you've ever heard and it backed up your thesis about the media going along with this,
Starting point is 00:22:28 the military attacking the American public. That's why she was there. That was the only thing she had to launch in some desperation move outside of what I just thought was a satanic ritual by her team on her. Why, why, why, you don't need to go on bread and butter. It was, I think what you're saying is self-contradictory. Oh?
Starting point is 00:22:48 Well, you're saying that she went there to launch this at work. The media picked it up. CBS, I have CBS clips saying the same thing. They're on her side. And you just heard NPR going on about Trump being unhinged. It was a huge success. How, you know, maybe. Okay, okay. No, I'll give you that. I'll give you that. But it was still a satanic ritual. It was painful. Well, everything that they do is a satanic ritual. So this is being redundant.
Starting point is 00:23:14 Thank you. I get you. All right, I'll stop saying it. We agree. Here's a couple of, here's another one. This is a TikTok analysis. This is a Harris Bear talker analysis. This is somebody who also watched it and came away funny.
Starting point is 00:23:28 Okay, so the interview with Fox News' Brett somebody or other and Kamala Harris just ended. And here's the assessment. Well, it wasn't actually an interview. This Brett guy spent the entire time talking over Kamala Harris. My hope is that the level at which he was interrupting her, refusing to allow her to speak, talking over her, running right over her with his list of all of his questions, his queued up video clips. Basically, he was using the 25 minutes to indict Kamala Harris on behalf of the viewing audience. Every single question, he spent
Starting point is 00:24:20 about 15 minutes talking about immigration and would not let her speak, then switched over to the use of public money for gender reassignment in prisons. And then the rest of it was, oh, 72% for this or for that. And why is that? And how come half of America, you know, wants Donald Trump? Oh, I can completely see how someone would view it that way. That doesn't surprise me at all. Right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:59 In fact, these things, I think everyone's mind has been made up for a while and this is all just icing on the cake. But let's listen, I have two clips from the interview that are kind of okay, but then I have a clip from a different interview that is the direction that Bayer should have gone. And I'll tell you, play these two interviews and I'll give you some analysis of what Gutfeld and others felt because they were all jacked up that this was great. Oh, well, I mean, and so just what I heard right away, oh, oh, the four staffers were telling them to wrap it up, to wrap it up, to wrap it up, four staffers, four staffers. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. That is the Republican side of the response. Let's start with Harris-Barr last unstable.
Starting point is 00:25:53 He's unstable. He is unstable. He's not well. You say he's mentally not stable. He's not stable. Let me ask you this. You told many interviewers that Joe Biden was on his game, that ran around circles on his staff.
Starting point is 00:26:07 When did you first notice that President Biden's mental faculties appeared diminished? Joe Biden, I have watched from the Oval Office to the Situation Room. And he has the judgment and the experience to do exactly what he has done in making very important decisions on behalf of the American people. There were no concerns raised. Joe Biden is not on the ballot. I understand. Donald Trump, Donald Trump. She should have answered with that.
Starting point is 00:26:37 She should have started with that. She dreamed that up in the middle of her thought process. She actually had a thought process here and she came up with that because she just caught her off guard. You could tell she was stunned by the question because this is nothing that she's been addressing. Now let me finish the clip. It's your clip. I'm sorry. I just I wanted to say she should have started with that. It's like Joe Biden is not on the ballot. What she got to that thought though. I understand. Donald Trump is. But you talked about it. And Donald Trump is.
Starting point is 00:27:04 After George Clooney said within a few minutes of talking to President Biden at a fundraiser that he thought this was not the same Joe Biden that we saw on the debate stage. Donald Trump is on the ballot. I understand. You met with him at least once a week for three and a half years. You didn't have any concerns? I think the American people have a concern about Donald Trump, which is why the people who know him best, including leaders of our national security community, have all spoken
Starting point is 00:27:34 out, even people who worked for him in the Oval Office, worked with him in the Situation Room, and have said he is unfit and dangerous and should never be president of the United States again, including his former vice president, which is why the job was open for him to choose another running mate. So that is a fact. That is a fact. So I think you're right that this was really an interview to seed the M5M with all kinds of facts that she used.
Starting point is 00:28:12 And of course we know which one stuck, but that's, I mean, it was all, every answer was about Trump, which is what she's been doing at her rallies and everything pretty much. Yes. And here's the second clip I pulled from this thing. This is the Harris-Bear Trump trans ad. He plays the trans ad for her. This particular one from the Trump campaign has gotten a lot of attention. Kamala supports taxpayer-funded sex changes for prisoners.
Starting point is 00:28:43 Surgery. For prisoners. For prisoners. For prisoners. Every transgender inmate in the prison system would have access. So are you still in support of using taxpayer dollars to help prison inmates or detained illegal aliens to transition to another gender? I will follow the law. And it's a law that
Starting point is 00:29:05 Donald Trump actually followed. You're probably familiar with, now it's a public report, that under Donald Trump's administration these surgeries were available to on a medical necessity basis to people in the federal prison system and I think frankly that ad from the Trump campaign is a little bit of like throwing, you know, stones when you're living in a glass house. The Trump aides say that he never advocated for that prison policy and no gender transition surgeries happened during his presidency. Well, you know what, you gotta take responsibility for what happened in your administration.
Starting point is 00:29:38 No surgeries happened in his presidency. So, would you still advocate for using taxpayer dollars for gender reassignment searches? I will follow the law. I think so. Trump would say he did. You would have a say as president. Like I said, I think he spent $20 million on those ads, trying to create a sense of fear in the voters because he actually has no plan in this election that is about focusing on the needs of the American people. Whereas, at $20 million on that ad, on an issue that, as it relates to the biggest issues that affect the American people, is really quite remote. I bet you the people at Fox are going, when are you spending your $1 billion, Kamala?
Starting point is 00:30:24 You got $1 billion. He He spent 20 million on that ad. Well, the way she says it, he could have called her out on, ads don't cost $20 million to produce. I think she meant the ad buy. Well, that's not what she said. He could call her out on all the stuff that she says is not what she meant. Oh, that's what I meant. Now you're disappointed somehow in Brett Baer from Fox?
Starting point is 00:30:46 I've been very disappointed. The whole thing was like this. And here's what I finally concluded because it seems as if what they did was listen to her speeches over and over and decided to grill her on stuff that she already had rehearsed. And so her rehearsed lines came out and they would talk about this. Even Gutfeld talked about how... Good trigger. Sorry?
Starting point is 00:31:07 A good trigger. A good way to get her to say what you want is just trigger her with the stuff she's rehearsed. Yes, but that's all she did was she just said that the same rehearsed material and once in a while she'd go off. They rarely, and she did come up with some good stuff like Trump's not out here, Biden's not on the ballot. When he could have countered that, by the way, when she said, well, Biden's not on the ballot.
Starting point is 00:31:27 He says, I'm not talking about who's on the ballot. He should have said, I'm not talking about who's on the ballot. But again, John, I mean, let's not be disappointed in the mainstream media. This is what they do. They suck, including Fox. It could be done better is what I'm saying. Of course, of course. Now, so let's go to, and what he should have done instead of going along with the program and looking at what she'd already said and then asking her about what she'd already said
Starting point is 00:31:55 that she already had rehearsed, which made for a boring back and forth. It was terrible that no matter what anyone thinks, that Brett, oh, Brett bearer. Oh Fox you went to Fox blah blah blah On a pod kid that I want to play this clip This is Harris with Soledad O'Brien. Oh, hey, we know Soledad. We know Soledad We know so he's like now Here's what Brett should have done which Soledad did which is ask off-the-wall questions and let her go off. This is an unbelievable clip. This is a classic and he could have done that instead of…it was almost as though it was
Starting point is 00:32:34 planned, let's ask her questions that she has already rehearsed and the answer to a million times. Let's go ask those questions again. Let's ask the same questions, which he in fact did, the same questions that were asked on 60 Minutes about how many people came across the border. No, no, no. He should have done what Soledad simply did,
Starting point is 00:32:54 which is let her ramble about stuff that's just off the wall. Listen to this. Is agreeing to voter ID one of those compromises that you'd support? I don't think that we should underestimate what that could mean, because in some people's mind that means, well, you're going to have to Xerox or photocopy your ID to send it in to prove you are who you are.
Starting point is 00:33:21 Well, there are a whole lot of people, especially people who live in rural communities, who don't, there's no Kinkos, there are a whole lot of people, especially people who live in rural communities who don't, there's no kinkos, there's no office mats near them. People have to understand that when we're talking about voter ID laws, be clear about who you have in mind and what would be required of them
Starting point is 00:33:35 to prove who they are. Of course people have to prove who they are, but not in a way that makes it almost impossible for them to prove who they are. You know, we're so used to her. I mean, here, I'll give you an example of, you know, she was on Charlemagne the God and Charlemagne brought in a reverend and she's like, oh, I grew up in the black church. I grew up in the black church in Canada. I grew up in the black church. Oh yeah, no, I went. In Canada, right.
Starting point is 00:34:07 Yeah, I grew up in the black church. The black church. Oh, it's right near you, the 23rd Avenue Church of God in Oakland. Yeah, yeah. And so, she went to the black church because that's what you do when you're black. We all know that. Whenever you're in trouble, you go to the church and here's what she said. Because what we see is so hard to see that we lose faith or a vision of those things
Starting point is 00:34:34 we cannot see but must know. Amen, sister. She's vapid. Yes, and that the Soledad question, which was just, what do you think about voter ID? And she goes off about Kinkos and you have to mail in, where do you have to mail in a photocopy of anything? And it's just like, what are you talking about is the way, if Bret Baer, if they had a clue at Fox, which you, I mean, you have to go along with your
Starting point is 00:35:06 theory on this, which is just really a bunch of Democrats in disguise. Yeah. And they're not going to do anything that's aggressive, as opposed to Soledad, who's just, you know, kind of asking rando questions and letting her talk. Yeah. It's like, you know, she's just going to dig herself a hole as opposed to what she's already used to talking about This Brett Baer interview was a disaster I'm glad you got that off your chest I mean and I and I agree with you I was okay I didn't understand why it was done
Starting point is 00:35:40 I didn't know other than to give the mainstream media some fuel to say Trump is going to come after you. And, oh, also says that, Oh, I have the guts to go on Fox. I think there was an element of that because, you know, well, you know, they get Trump's been doing this and that. So now, Oh, I went on Fox. Okay. Well, that's out of the way. Checkbox. Did you hear by any chance?
Starting point is 00:36:08 Carville Not well, I heard him last week Oh, no, no, you have to hear Carville on the the new very fine people hoax on the Enemy from went from within and he's on socky show who's sitting there like she just dumped a turd in her Pampers What do what day was this? I don't have the date, but it's after this interview. So it's in the last few days. After the bear interview? No, no, before the bear interview after the Bartiromo, the money on the interview, because
Starting point is 00:36:40 it's about the enemy from within. And why anyone lets Carvel on the air anymore is a riddle. It's a mystery to me. Does he have any political clout? Is he important anymore? He doesn't work for anybody. He just comes on as a kind of a loose cannon. I think that's why they bring him on for entertainment purposes. Well, he takes it to a whole new level. Now, mind you, on the Maria interview, right after
Starting point is 00:37:10 the enemy from within, she says, hey, you've booked Madison Square Garden. And he's like, oh, yeah, yeah, we're gonna have a good time in Madison Square Garden. I always wanted to play Madison Square Garden. He's like, yeah, Madison Square Garden. Now listen to Carville. I did not realize when I said that that he would actually go on television and say I'm going to use the military to round up my political enemies. When I said that, I didn't General Flynn, who's going to be very senior in this administration, didn't say that the gates of hell will rain on my
Starting point is 00:37:41 political enemies. When I said that, I didn't know that he was gonna schedule a rally in Madison Square Garden to mimic the Nazi rally of 10 February 1939. So we have, they're telling you, and by the way, if they win, they're going to correctly say, we told you in the election what we were gonna do, and you voted for us, you have green lighted the whole thing And if we don't know people about that if they don't if these young black men
Starting point is 00:38:11 Well, how do you think they're gonna do if you're a young black male and Trump inspired? On a roundup of people. How well do you think you're going to do it? Do you think you got nothing to lose how about looking at american history for one time and see what can happen here and they are telling you we're not making this up this is not we can be fact-checked by anybody they have promised military roundup they promised the gates of hell will rain on the enemies the supreme court has green lighted it
Starting point is 00:38:44 they were asked a question. If a Navy SEAL is ordered to assassinate a political enemy... Hold on a second. The Supreme Court has green-lighted it. He throws that in. Yes, yes. And you can fact check me. ...Terry Roundup, they promised the gates of hell will rain on the enemies. The Supreme Court has green-lighted it. They were asked the question. If a Navy SEAL is ordered to assassinate a political enemy, the president can't be, there's nothing wrong with that. That's just part of his job.
Starting point is 00:39:11 Navy SEALs. They are telling you they're doing all of this. Pay attention to them right now. Please. They're telling you. It's, it's, I'm, exactly. That is exactly what he's saying. That is why I think Harris is telling people to watch his rallies. Oh yeah, oh yeah, okay. Oh man.
Starting point is 00:39:31 That, you know what, I did hear parts of that, because I remember him saying that- Nazi rallies. The Nazi rally, because Mass in the Square Garden, but the fact, this is insane. Yes, it's great. That's the worst, because now her ratings are next to nothing, so nobody's... I saw it. I saw it.
Starting point is 00:39:54 The true believers watch that. Yeah, you saw it as a research watch. Yes, hello. Oh! The insanity of this guy. And why? I mean, there's nothing left. And his Louisiana accent is off the rails. It's gone so bad.
Starting point is 00:40:14 It's great. You can barely understand him. He sounds like a dummy. He's like, he sounds like one of those guys, which brings back the point of why they have this guy on. He sounds like somebody always pointed this out to me. Some Texas person said to me, they always put the dumbest people they can find
Starting point is 00:40:30 on television when they're representing the South. Yes. So when you have a bad situation, CBS will bring on somebody, well you know the way I said, the way the government coming in, they make it sound like the guy's an idiot. Why would Carville sounds like one of those guys?
Starting point is 00:40:49 Well, he is. Sounds like the local idiot. He is. What he's saying is idiotic. What am I thinking? Yes, he is. He is one of those with the accent and an idiot. The Supreme Court green-lit it. Supreme Court green-lit it. Do you remember it was a question from the lawyer who said, so if a green beret, you
Starting point is 00:41:08 know, can he order a green beret to a satin? This was asinine, completely unhinged and crazy. And I'm just going to say, they want him to win. They want him to win. And it was actually Muhammad Ali Who I was someone sent me this clip is 45 seconds and back in the day Muhammad Ali was asked You know people say hey people want you to be president you want to be president So just replace the word black here with orange. Would you like to be president? No, no, no, sir too dangerous
Starting point is 00:41:48 president? No. No? No sir. Too dangerous. Like in other words, here's a ship. People are dancing on the ship. A lot of money's on the ship. A lot of food's on the ship. And I cannot integrate on the ship. I cannot have equality on the ship. I'm just in the galley working. And I never could get up and see the captain of the ship. Now, all of a sudden the man tells me, uh, say, come on down, Ali, out of the galley. I want you to come up here and here have some of the drink. What do you want? And giving me number one spot from the galley to the number one spot. I said this ship must be sinking. Why is it sinking?
Starting point is 00:42:14 Exactly. Oh, that's a great clip with that perspective. The ship must be sinking. This is an amazing thing that someone sent me this morning from this. This is an outlet called Straight Arrow News from time to time. Yes, I've heard of them. Yeah, but this is a... It's promoted by a number of right-wingers.
Starting point is 00:42:37 Well, not many people send me this, and they don't have a lot of views, so I'm not quite sure who's funding them. But this is now the government putting this in from the FBI, specifically putting this information out. Was it where we less than two weeks from Election Day? This to me, if anyone picks this up and runs with it, this is a October surprise right here. The FBI has revised its crime data from 2022, first reporting a 2.1% decrease in violent crime,
Starting point is 00:43:10 now revealing a 4.5% increase. The increase from 2021 to 2022 in each crime category is depicted here. The revision includes 80,000 more incidents of violent crime than previously reported, 1,699 more murders, 7,780 more rapes, and more than 33,000 robberies and 37,000 aggravated assaults. The FBI released this new data without formally announcing the changes, noting only on its website that the 2022 violent crime rate had been updated.
Starting point is 00:43:48 The discovery was first highlighted by John Lott, an American economist and political commentator. The revised data is all publicly available. I mean, wow, this is big. This has been one of- I know, and it also brings in the question David Muir's commentary during the... Yes, fact check. His fact check, yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:08 Yeah, the fact check. That he stopped a debate to fact check. He said, no, crime's down. And the Democrats have been going on and on and on about crime being down. I had it at the dinner table the other day, crime's down. Oh man. From your kids, it's harsh. It's harsh with your kids. It's harsh. Because you just want to whip them, don't you? No, they're worth arguing with. Well, take this clip to the next dinner table.
Starting point is 00:44:32 That'll work. That'll show them, those whippersnappers. I can't show them anything. I do have a series of campaign overview clips from CBS. Which tend to show the attitude. I still think CBS has been cut loose because I don't think they're read in anymore. Well, maybe they're in for Trump. No, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:44:58 It's just, I think that- Oh, wait, I'm sorry. They're trying to be fair and balanced. Oh, that makes sense. No, they're not. They're not trying to be fair and balanced. Oh, that makes sense. No, they're not. They're not trying to be fair and balanced, but the way they're going. Well, before we do that, I have, let's just play this.
Starting point is 00:45:12 This is a clip that was on from the On Point show that's on PBS about flip floppers. They went and interviewed a bunch of people on the street. And I wanted to play- Man on the street warning, warning, Will Robinson. Well, we know this is a bunch of bull crap, but I just want to play this because of the milieu. Tell me that this guy, that there's just some rando, doesn't sound like walls.
Starting point is 00:45:41 Second time you're using rando, just letting you know. Thank you. I really like the word rando. I like saying hello but I'm stopping myself. Well I'll minimize rando. Okay, alright. But I don't know if I want to really stop it Hello Thanks It's a brain problem Because I'm just listening to this. I'm what Mill you is walls a part of touchdown Timmy Except maybe I maybe I don't know I just buy just very skeptical about but when I heard this, I said, wow, this guy's in the same,
Starting point is 00:46:26 Millie, it sounds exactly the same, just play it. Who says he still needs to know more about Kamala Harris? Her style is great. I just wish I could really learn more. And because of that, I'm not gonna give it my full 100% because I just have to learn more and see how things are gonna fall out with this. How the vice presidents too.
Starting point is 00:46:45 Yeah, if I was a vice president, doing all the things, hands down. Okay, yeah, Vance scares the stuff out of me. Am I wrong? Are you insinuating the gay milieu? It's a type of gay I'm unfamiliar with because in the San Francisco Bay area... Oh no, you have flamboyant gays. Gays present as kind of, I'd say, stereotypes. Not all of them.
Starting point is 00:47:15 I mean, there's plenty of closeted gays that are just, or not even closeted, but they just act normal. But yes, the flamboyant types. Anyway, I'm sorry. I know he's, yes, you should be, but he definitely sucks when it comes to hunting. What was that? He can't even load his own gun. What was that?
Starting point is 00:47:35 With a Beretta. With a Beretta. Oh, this is a Beretta. Yeah. I'm gonna blast them out of the sky. Okay. Let's go with Trump campaign. Trump, this is CBS reporting.
Starting point is 00:47:47 There's two clips reporting on Trump. Trump's part of the on the campaign. It's I want to you listen to the following. It's got a negative intonation, which will contrast greatly with the positive intonation they give to Harris. I'm Nora O'Donnell. We're going to begin tonight with the race for presidentation they give to Harris. I'm Nora O'Donnell, we're gonna begin tonight with the race for president.
Starting point is 00:48:06 And new questions about the mental health and behavior of former President Donald Trump. President Biden campaigning for Vice President Kamala Harris on Tuesday said Trump has become unhinged, referring to a campaign event this week where Trump swayed
Starting point is 00:48:19 to music for 40 minutes. Trump now 78 would be the oldest person to become president, but he is refusing to disclose his medical records, which is something presidential nominees traditionally do. In a town hall aimed at courting
Starting point is 00:48:32 women last night, Trump made numerous false and strange statements. Including claiming to be the father of in vitro fertilization. We also have new reporting tonight on the Harris campaign, including her new outreach to Republicans looking for an alternative to Trump.
Starting point is 00:48:48 CBS's Nicole Killian is gonna lead us off with more on Donald Trump and what his team is saying tonight. We really are the party for IVF. We want fertilization and it's all the way. Tonight, former President Donald Trump under fire after making this strange claim about in vitro fertilization to an all-female town hall Oh, I want to talk about IVF father of IVF. So I want to hear this question He made the claim less than 90 seconds before admitting Alabama Senator Katie Britt had explained it to him
Starting point is 00:49:16 I said explain IVS very IVF very quickly and within about two minutes. I understood it. Oh Wow, he said he lied. He is not a scientist. He didn't create IVF. He's the father of nothing. Oh man, okay. So this is... Yeah. They built a whole story around this or tell me there's no... Yeah. Oh man.
Starting point is 00:49:39 No, and there's most of it, just some more, but the fact is they really... They're hounding him about him saying that which was obviously and you know wasn't serious but i i have to say when when i hear them say harris is out there trying to be an alternative that puts her in a secondary position the way they the way they said that harris is out there trying to say i'm alternative. You know what I mean? Okay. I'm more along the lines of the intonation here. This is like very negative. Oh yeah. And then when we get to the two Harris clips, these are balanced. Let's go with Trump too. This is the second part of this report.
Starting point is 00:50:17 The procedure has been around for nearly 50 years. An official with the Trump campaign told CBS News the former president was simply reaffirming his support and made the comments in jest. But it was no laughing matter for his opponent, the vice president. Donald Trump, I found it to be quite bizarre. Actually, he called himself the father of IVF. And if what he meant is taking responsibility, well, then yeah, he should take responsibility for the fact that one in three women in America lives in a Trump abortion ban state. In another town hall geared toward Latino voters, the former president also resurrected debunked claims about Haitian immigrants eating pets, but took them a step further.
Starting point is 00:50:58 I was just saying what was reported that's been reported and eating other things too that they're not supposed to be. But this is all I do is report. I have not, I was there, I'm going to be there and we're going to take a look and I'll give you a full report when I do. That along with his recent behavior including dancing on stage has led Harris to question what she calls his unstable behavior. Meanwhile, pressure is mounting on Trump to release his medical records after Harris released hers this weekend. Trump told CBS two months ago he would make them public.
Starting point is 00:51:32 You are now the oldest candidate in this race. Will you release your medical records? Sure, I do. I just had a medical exam and I had a perfect score. The Trump campaign recently released a vaguely worded letter and other information from his doctors. Meantime the former president is getting a big fundraising boost tonight pulling in about 220 million dollars over the last quarter from a trio of billionaire donors including Elon Musk. Nora? Nicole Killian in Atlanta. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:52:05 They're eating the dogs. I just love that ISO. OK, yeah, so he dances on stage, which he was doing to fill up time because people had medical emergencies. Somebody almost died at the event. Yeah, yeah, so he's like, oh, let's just turn. And the cue was good.
Starting point is 00:52:21 He says, let's play it loud. And they played it right away. That was pretty impressive. Someone was on the mix, on the wheels of steel. Good to go. Something else I've noticed, you notice that you see this with people that do, including certain podcasters that have inappropriate laughter. Yes. Many podcasters. People that with inappropriate laughter have always been convinced have no sense of humor.
Starting point is 00:52:48 And so they laugh at a lot of stuff thinking, well, maybe it's funny and I better laugh because, you know... And Kamala does this. She has a... That stupid laugh. She laughs all the time. But she has obviously, if you listen to her, she has zero sense of humor or even irony. She has none of that. She has no sense of humor at all. So she just laughs a lot and shares a secret.
Starting point is 00:53:19 Okay. Back to CBS. So they've done trashing Trump for being unhinged again. This guy's been unhinged again. Yes, he's a liar. This guy's been unhinged since 2015. How come they didn't bring in the enemy from within? On this report, they didn't for some reason, I have no idea.
Starting point is 00:53:38 They brought it in, believe me. But now we go to campaign Harris clip one. Let's turn now to Battleground pennsylvania where vice president com what harris launched a new push today to win the support of republicans including with an interview on fox news where she said if elected her presidency would not be a continuation of joe biden's we get more now from cbs is robert costa
Starting point is 00:54:00 i'm joined today by over one Republican leaders. With current and former Republican officials on hand, Vice President Harris lambasted former President Donald Trump for saying if elected, he would take on the quote enemy within. He says that as commander in chief, he would use our military to go after them. Honestly, let that sink in. Use of the American military to go after American citizens. Harris also asked the crowd to consider comments from former Joint Chiefs Chairman Mark Milley. Donald Trump's top general, he has called Trump, and I quote, fascist to the core and said quote, no one has ever been
Starting point is 00:54:50 as dangerous to this country. Mark Milley who forced COVID shots on his troops. He's hated. He's hated. Let's go back to what she just said. Quote. Qu said. Quote. Quote. Quote. She's not quoting Mark Milley. No.
Starting point is 00:55:11 She's quoting Woodward's book. Yes. Yes. Good point. It's secondhand information. Woodward says he said this. But the way she presents it is, oh, Mark Milley said, quote, no, he didn't. He hasn't denied it. He may have said it. Good point. Good point. Fair point.
Starting point is 00:55:31 But this is like a, and CBS said nothing. Well, no. It was pointed out in other reports and Fox, when they played some of this, they mentioned that this is a quote from the Woodward book which you've already we've debunked partly in the last show yes with our note from the guy who sells PCR machines yes and Russia always had them and so Trump wasn't sending them to Russia that was bull crap mm-hmm so the I think the whole book may be a fraud. No. No. Say it's not so. What?
Starting point is 00:56:07 Gambling? Say it's not so. Hmm. Okay. You mean the book that comes out just in time and is really about Joe Biden? But the very end of the book? But it slams Trump left and right. Yes.
Starting point is 00:56:22 Oh, okay. Do you think it's possible at this point that people at CBS and with all of this noise, certainly from the media about this enemy from within, you heard Walter coming after journalists. Do you think that people within these organizations might actually start to believe this? Yeah, I think so. They're already lost. might actually start to believe this? Yeah, I think so. They're already lost. I'm very sad about that.
Starting point is 00:56:49 They could easily believe it. But the other hand, if you're gonna go on your thesis, we have one more clip to play. We're gonna go on your thesis that the whole thing is designed to put Trump in office. Doesn't this idea that the American military is gonna go after the republic, creating a danger and Trump's dangerous, dangerous, dangerous,
Starting point is 00:57:06 is a reflection of your basic thesis that you love to bring up about the cigarette packs. Yes, yes. The more danger, the better it is. Vote for him. He's dangerous. Smoke this. It'll kill you. That's scientifically proven that the, the, I mean, is that in play that? That's a possibility. I'm with you on that. I mean, I've said from way back, they want him to win. You've been saying this ever since I've known you. No, what I'm saying is they want him to win. They want him in.
Starting point is 00:57:39 No, yes, they want him to win. The cigarette thing... Because the ship is sinking. The ship is sinking. The ship is sinking. Put the orange man on the bridge. Let me just review this. Study showed that, and this was mainly in the UK and in the Netherlands, I know that they did that as well, on cigarette packs, they would put horrible pictures of black
Starting point is 00:58:00 lungs and people with holes in their throats and and people would buy these packs and go hey I'll trade you a black lung for a hole in the throat and they loved it They were buying more cigarettes than ever and of course these the tobacco companies like no, let's do more of this So the distinct possibility I was taking it. I took a trip to Europe one year when this was in play Because they wasn't they never did this here. They just had the warning label. They never put horrible pictures. And I saw these pictures.
Starting point is 00:58:31 It was great. My God. It was great. It was like, I guess it was like trading cards. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. People were trading them out.
Starting point is 00:58:39 It was a big joke. So here's the second half of the Harris analysis from CBS. But again, it's interesting. It's couched in a very positive way that Trump steps in a negative way. I mean, maybe it's the idea is just the, I don't know, but let's play this and figure it out. Today's rally was in Bucks County, a key suburban Philadelphia battleground where the campaign hopes to peel off Republican voters, especially women. I urge you to make the conservative choice.
Starting point is 00:59:10 Vote for our bedrock values and vote for Kamala Harris. We spoke to longtime national GOP strategist Jennifer Horn, now backing Harris. If there is an issue that's flipping women towards Vice President Harris, what is it? It's definitely the overturn of Roe v Wade. And not just because it's about abortion, but because it's an attack on women's rights, on women's autonomy. In that rare Fox News interview tonight, Harris said definitively that she would be a different president than Joe Biden.
Starting point is 00:59:41 Let me be very clear. My presidency will not be a continuation of Joe Biden's presidency. And like every new president that comes in to office, I will bring my life experiences, my professional experiences and fresh and new ideas. I represent a new generation of leadership. While there is energy here in the suburbs today, some Democrats privately tell CBS News they're concerned about the energy in the city of Philadelphia and want to make sure those core Democratic voters are ready to turn out in November.
Starting point is 01:00:14 Nora? Yeah. Yeah, no, there was very difference in tone, but I'm not surprised. The entire media is against Trump, including Fox News, if you really analyze it. I'm going to not. Yes. This is another thesis that I have to agree with. So I want to play a couple of things here.
Starting point is 01:00:32 Season of reveal. Bill Clinton confirms and not only confirms it. This is what the New York bankers always said. Immigration. You're back to this. Immigration. Yes. Immigration is good.
Starting point is 01:00:44 We need it. We need, we need to open these borders Immigration, yes, immigration is good. We need it. We need to open these borders. Not only did he confirm this thesis, he used the R word. A new direction to manage an immigration crisis in a tough time where there's all this people all over the world, where there are border problems all over the world, where millions of people are trying to escape the misery they're in, and other people are saying, well, I want to do what I can and take what I can,
Starting point is 01:01:12 but maybe there's a limit to how much we can do. In other words, I don't think Americans are anti-immigration. They're anti-chaos. Right? They don't want us to lose more than we can, but they recognize, at least most people do, we got the lowest birth rate we've had in well over a hundred years. We're not at replacement level, which means we've got to have somebody come here if we want to keep growing the economy. Unless one of you is one of these artificial intelligence geniuses figured out we can all grow with no work.
Starting point is 01:01:51 Well, thank you Bill. Yeah, we're not at replacement level yet. No, these borders, we've got to open them back up again. Replacement, we need replacement. It's disgusting. More reveal. And I love this The Aurora City Council had a little meeting and exactly what we've been saying about this entire
Starting point is 01:02:11 Immigration scam which really is much more a legal human trafficking scam with huge Non-governmental organizations and nonprofits many of them faith-based non-governmental organizations and nonprofits, many of them faith-based, making tons of money over placement, placement of newcomers. We just need to retrace our steps and find out what happened. We need to make sure it never happens again. We not know the... Aurora City Council moving forward with a proposal to investigate which nonprofits the
Starting point is 01:02:44 state and city of Denver worked with to relocate immigrants to Aurora. Now, the city of Denver says it did not send any immigrants to Aurora. This proposal passed Council 6-2. Council members say the purpose is to learn how many people were sent to Aurora, what promises if any were made to them, and whether background checks were conducted. Whether it's the city, county, or wherever, whether it's the state, should not impact a local jurisdiction without even without at least informing that jurisdiction what they're doing. They did not. They did not. And they use a non-profits as a mechanism to do this. Now the two members who voted against it say this is going to put vulnerable groups
Starting point is 01:03:25 at risk. Now, we also asked the governor's office if the state sent immigrants to Aurora. We have not gotten a response to that question. Of course they did. Of course they did. This is the whole scam. Nonprofits. That is the biggest scam that we need to clean up all this money that Congress approves, which
Starting point is 01:03:44 goes to these cutout nonprofits and NGOs and they do all the dirty work. They do all the dirty work. And we've been talking about this for a long time. Now at least over a decade. So Trump, the most impressive stuff he's done is you really have to sit down and watch it. He did the Chicago Economic Club, he did the Detroit Economic Club, he did the Bloomberg Sit Down Interview.
Starting point is 01:04:13 His ideas about tariffs and in essence, taking China's playbook and saying, okay, 200% tariffs, but you want zero tariffs, then just build your factories here in the United States. And he has good answers for a lot of these things, good answers. And so I'm not going to play a whole bunch of things from the actual speech. You have to go and watch it. You have to spend the time because of the weave.
Starting point is 01:04:45 You know, the weave. The weave makes it impossible to clip Trump. It really does make an impossible clipping. It does. It's actually makes him less clippable. Very, yes, very much so. So here is a little clip of him at the, with the editor in chief of Bloomberg
Starting point is 01:05:00 who hates Trump, John- Oh, that guy's a dick. Mikul Thwait. that guy's a dick....Mickle Thwait and a British dick. And Trump just ran circles around him the whole time. Yes, you're going to find some people who will gain from individual tariffs. The overall effect could be massive. I agree. I agree it's going to have a massive effect.
Starting point is 01:05:20 Positive effect. It's going to be a positive. Not a negative. Let me just... No, no. Let me just... I know how committed you are to this and it must be hard for you to spend 25 years talking about tariffs as being negative and then have somebody explain to you that you're totally wrong. It will have a negative, it will have, I'm going to step further. If you don't do this, this country has no chance. 40 million jobs is a lot of jobs to rely on.
Starting point is 01:05:44 They're all coming back. Those are 40 million jobs in America that rely on trade. Are you ready? John Deere, great company, they announced about a year ago they're going to build big plants outside of the United States, right? They're going to build them in Mexico. And you threatened them in Paris and they stopped. That's right.
Starting point is 01:06:03 I said if John Deere builds those plants and not selling anything into the United States, they just announced yesterday they're probably not going to build the plants. OK, I kept the jobs here. Now, you made an excellent point a couple of weeks back. You said, how can he do this? We have the USMCA, the United States, Mexico, Canada agreement. How can he sit there and say, I'm going to put these huge tariffs on anything coming in from Mexico. And at the time I was like, yeah, you make a good point there. How
Starting point is 01:06:33 is he going to do that? He actually explained this at the Detroit Economic Club. And to that end, I'm announcing today that upon taking office, I will formally notify Mexico and Canada of my intention to invoke the six year renegotiation provisions of the USMCA that I put in. That was the hardest thing I had to get. They didn't want that. They wanted to have it long. But I wanted to, this is always like little tricks
Starting point is 01:07:03 they want to play. I said, nope, I want to be able to renegotiate in six years, otherwise we're not making the deal. And I got it, and it's coming due very soon. Oh, I'm going to have a lot of fun. And that'll address these concerns. It'll also seek strong new protections against trans shipments so that China and other countries cannot smuggle their products and auto parts into
Starting point is 01:07:25 the United States tax free through Mexico to the detriment of our workers and our supply chains. So this is really interesting because when this clause was put in, of course, at the table, everyone's like, okay, do whatever. Even if you get a second term, we won't have to deal with you when this renegotiation comes up because it comes up in 2026. I read, under the United States, Mexico, Canada agreement review clause on July 1st, 2026, the US, Mexico and Canada will confirm in writing whether or not to continue the agreement. If one or more of the three parties decide to make the step of not renewing the agreement, it will kick off a process that will leave the future of the USMCA in a state of uncertainty for years to come. That is, unless the objecting party or parties change their mind. Even though the six
Starting point is 01:08:12 year review is still more than two years away at the time of this writing from, I forget which think tank it was, the uncertainty provided by the review clause is already a significant preoccupation for business communities in all three countries. He's claiming, and I tend to believe him, that he put that in. I believe him. I believe that's fantastic. That's a fabulous idea. Yeah. And now it comes due as if he knew.
Starting point is 01:08:36 It's a poison pill. Yeah, poison pill. That's exactly right. And he's really interesting in these economic club interviews. I mean, I was listening to another one. It was a, actually it was a, he was just, oh, he was talking about the Boeing plane, you know, about the Air Force One and how they came in 5.7 billion. He said to the guy, I said, no, I want a three in that number. And you come back when you got a three.
Starting point is 01:08:59 And he says, the best way to get the price down is not call them back. And, you know, he got the done. He said, you know, these deals that are done by people, very stupid people, or they're corrupt. And he says, I think they're corrupt. They must all be taking kickbacks. And that's what he does. He does deals. And it's not hard.
Starting point is 01:09:18 It's just don't be corrupt. The deals aren't that hard to do. Here's... And by the way, I want to remind you what was brought up at the beginning of the show. Raytheon to pay nearly one billion for defrauding DOD, allegedly bribing Qatari officials. That's corruption. Yes. But that's not how it plays on ABC Good Morning America.
Starting point is 01:09:38 Former President Trump was in Chicago yesterday at the Economic Club, repeating false claims about the January 6 election, refusing to say whether he's spoken to Vladimir Putin since he left office. Chief Washington correspondent John Karl has the details. Good morning, John. Good morning, George. In his interview before the Economic Club of Chicago, Donald Trump referred to January 6th, the day when his supporters attacked the U.S. Capitol in an effort to stop the certification of Joe Biden's 2020 election victory as, quote, a day of love and peace.
Starting point is 01:10:12 As to whether he would commit to a peaceful transfer of power after this election, Donald Trump pointed to the last one, insisting it was peaceful and bizarrely saying January 6th was a day of love and peace and falsely saying the police invited the rioters into the Capitol building. There was love and peace. We have video to show that. Falsely, falsely. Some people went to the Capitol and a lot of strange things happened there, a lot of
Starting point is 01:10:41 strange things with people being waved into the Capitol by police with people screaming go in with that never got into trouble the reality nearly 500 people have been charged with assaulting police officers on January 6th nearly half of them pleading guilty or being convicted at trial the former president also defended his plan to impose new tariffs on products imported into the United States. That is going to push up the cost for all those people who want to buy foreign goods. Now, what's going to happen? That is just simple mathematics, President Trump.
Starting point is 01:11:13 It's not. Yes, it is, but not the way you figure it. I was always very good at mathematics. So I mean, I would say to everyone, go take a look at those hour long talks or hour and a half. They're pretty good. He's saying some sensible stuff there. For those who don't understand the weave, why it's hard to clip, Trump goes off on these tangents and then he talks about all kinds of different stuff.
Starting point is 01:11:37 And then he brings- It's like everything's a shaggy dog story. Yeah, but very long. And then he brings it back to the answer and he calls it the weave. I call it the weave and it's horrible for the show. It's horrible and if he becomes president, I am going to call him on it. One more from John Carl because of course we can't leave out the enemy from within. And John, the closer we get to the election, the president's former president's rhetoric taking an even darker turn.
Starting point is 01:12:05 Darker. He's calling his Democratic opponents the enemy within, promising to prosecute them, even suggesting turning the military on them. George, Trump has continued to refer to his political opponents as the enemy within, saying they pose more of a threat to the country. His political opponents. Do you hear this? It's a lie.
Starting point is 01:12:24 Yeah. John Carl is a liar. This is the three networks are just filled with these people that are, they have to know they're lying or they're just delusional. No, yeah. I think that they don't even look at the interview. I showed it to Tina and I showed her the... She actually got it right off the bat. She's like, oh, that's Auntie Fox. She got it correct right off the bat.
Starting point is 01:12:50 It took me a second to say, is he talking about immigrants or what is he talking about? But if the word is just out there, this is the milieu. The word is out, the word is he said this, very fine you know bloodbath. I think they believe it That's another one. Yeah, they believe it and they just run with it and the the masters behind the scenes whoever it is Obama They got to talk to him about him in a second, too They they just run with it run with it run with oh, we got something Let's just go with this Trump has continued to refer to his political opponents
Starting point is 01:13:26 as the enemy within, saying they pose more of a threat to the country than criminals illegally crossing the border or Russia or China. In fact, this is something that he has continued to do even yesterday in a town hall meeting in Georgia. He said this, quote, we have China, we have Russia, we have all these countries.
Starting point is 01:13:46 If you have a smart president, they can be handled. The more difficult are, you know, the Pelosi's. These people, they're so sick, they're so evil. That's the way he's talking about his political opponents. He's repeated it and again, this is absolutely unprecedented in American history talking about using the military in this way. Wow. John Carp, thanks very much. With the Clintonista there doing the alley-oop, it's unbelievable. No, it's not. I mean, why am I even saying that? Unprecedented is bull crap. No, of course.
Starting point is 01:14:17 But I mean, these people are just lying. It's great. It's great for the show. So then, and I think I might have to do an emergency pod with Moe. It's great. It's great for the show. I think I might have to do an emergency pod with Mo. An emergency pod. We need to do an emergency pod, Mo. Emergency, emergency pod because it's come down to the black men. It's come down to the black men. Somehow Kamala Harris thinks black men want to, this is only what I've heard.
Starting point is 01:14:42 I haven't seen the written policy, but the meme that's out there is, uh, legalize marijuana cause black men love weed. By the way, this idea of, of, I can't imagine being a black guy and having this, the notion that you'll be satisfied with everything. You'll be back in the fold of the Democrat Party if they legalize weed because you're a bunch of stoner losers. I mean, again, I haven't seen the written policy.
Starting point is 01:15:15 I'm going to read it because there's also something about crypto. We're going to protect black men from crypto. Okay, all right, all right, all right, scary crypto. No, not from crypto. No, I've heard analysis of it. And there is the analysis from the Bitcoin community at least is black men get scammed by crypto scams more than white men. Yeah, it's more like that than we're going to buy Bitcoin for you? What is it? No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 01:15:48 My understanding from the other, from not that perspective, not the Bitcoin community, if you're such a thing, is that it was to protect the crypto situation in general because blacks for some reason, I don't know how this works. Don't know how to buy Bitcoin. No, they're all in on Bitcoin. Okay, yeah. No, I don't think so. They should be.
Starting point is 01:16:13 I don't think so either. They should be. But they are in on pot. They all need to be stoned. Give me a break. And then the third one was they're gonna give $20,000 forgivable loans to black entrepreneurs. That's illegal in America. That's just illegal. She can to black entrepreneurs. That's illegal in America.
Starting point is 01:16:25 That's just illegal. She can't do that. It is illegal. It's illegal. So this is what Mo would call the boule phone call. The boule phone rang. The boule is the, I don't know if you've heard him talk about it, but that is the Illuminati,
Starting point is 01:16:44 the black Illuminati. Charlemagne the God gets calls from them all the time, who sets them straight. And this is, I forget his name, black actor. And he spoke out against Obama the way Obama was talking to the black men. And whoops. Former President Obama struck a national nerve when he said this about black men and whoops. Former president Obama struck a national nerve when he said this about black men. You're coming up with all kinds of reasons and excuses.
Starting point is 01:17:12 I'm speaking to men directly. Part of it makes me think that, well, you just aren't feeling the idea of having a woman as president. Bundle Pierce, who is still with us at the table, says that Obama is wrong. And he tweeted this initially. The party has to stop scapegoating black men.
Starting point is 01:17:29 Black men are not the problem. And then there was a phone call. So what happened? Well, I've known the president for years now. Obama called him on it. And a mutual contact said that he wanted to speak, I wanted to speak to him. I didn't offer it as a criticism. For me, it was nothing more than a strategist in a room saying,
Starting point is 01:17:55 hey, what is the best messaging for black men? I have focused the past six weeks of going around the country with a barbershop campaign. Going to barbershops and talk to black men since I heard... Which is probably the right way to do it. Every election cycle they always say that black men are siphoned off. And I found the most effective way to communicate to the men in those gatherings was saying what do you want?
Starting point is 01:18:24 Vote for what you want. Declare what your values are. And then go out and make the choice on that. Don't consider my candidate. Well, that's wrong. Or the other candidate, vote for what you want. And I found it to be effective. What they would say is, what are you doing here?
Starting point is 01:18:39 This is the first time someone came and asked that of me. And so I was saying simply, that's not the way to get to folks. What I've experienced in the past six weeks is the facts. Folks want to see what have you delivered? Did he acknowledge that it was not delivered the right way? No. We actually didn't get into.
Starting point is 01:19:01 It just went on and on and on and on. So Obama's out there calling the black actors, hey, get on board, get on the ship. And then Kamala on Charlemagne, and this is a big one that I learned from Mo. And this stood out, we've talked about this in the show so many times, reparations. By caution to you, Is. And by the way, every white person who posted about this misinterpreted the real gaffe that she made. My question to you is, what's your stance on reparations? We all know that America became great, you
Starting point is 01:19:36 know, off the backs of free black labor. How progressive are you on making it a priority and right in America's wrongs is understood that you are running for president for all people of America asking for specifics for black communities doesn't mean no don't do for others. But black Americans are heavily asked to vote Democrat and every election for over half a century with very little in return. What are your plans to address these very important issues and change that narrative? Thank you, Z. I appreciate that. Thank you. And thank you for your work. So to your point, yes, I am running to be a president for all
Starting point is 01:20:19 Americans. That being said, I do have clear eyes about the disparities that exist and the context in which they exist, meaning history to your point. So my agenda, well, first of all, on the point of reparations, it has to be studied. There's no question about that. We've done a million studies. It has to be studied more. It's always a study. They never say, oh yeah, reparations. No, oh, we got to do a study. That's what Maxine Waters did.
Starting point is 01:20:53 They all do studies and no black man is going to fall for that nonsense anymore. Well, not anymore. No. Maybe after the first time. I mean, you listen to our black brothers and they say, hey, you know, we thought Obama would do right by us because at least he had Michelle, you know, we knew he wasn't black when Michelle's black. And then all right, oh, don't worry, we'll get you in the second term. And then we got
Starting point is 01:21:15 gender neutral bathrooms. So now, no, they know what it amounted to, right? The entire Obama administration amounted to gender, gender neutral bathrooms in North Carolina of all places. Yes. And now I hate to do it, but there's been a redefinition of a word that needs to be discussed. I will play the trigger warning so everybody is aware that it's happening.
Starting point is 01:21:37 At the tone, a clip from the view will be played. Shelter in place. All right, let's talk about fascism for a second. Okay. This is the definition. It's defined as a political movement that embraces the far-right nationalism and the forceful suppression of any opposition. Are you kidding me?
Starting point is 01:21:57 The far-right? Is this the second or third time they've redefined the word? I mean, I'm going to read from the most redefined dictionary there is, which is Merriam-Webster. You still change your definition at the drop of a hat, sometimes overnight. A populist political philosophy, movement, or regime that exalts nation and often race above the individual that is associated with a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader and is characterized by severe economic and social regimentation and by forcible suppression of opposition.
Starting point is 01:22:32 Somehow, that has become the far right. All right, let's talk about fascism for a second. Okay. This is the definition. It's defined as a political movement that embraces the far-right nationalism and the forceful suppression of any opposition, all overseen by an authoritarian government. I mean, these people are crazy. Crazy!
Starting point is 01:22:55 They just make it up. By the way, I'm surprised that I refreshed the page and it didn't say that today. That could have easily happened. Oh, it's been redefined now by the view, so we've got to change that. Oh yeah, got to change that. Anyway, Trump is going to win this election. They want him to win this election. Everything points towards it. Stop being all spun up if you want Trump to win. I think the ship sinking is the best thing you've played for months. Yes. Why would you invite that guy up on the bridge? Cause it must be sinking.
Starting point is 01:23:32 Yes. Yes. It must be sinking. Yeah. It's just, it's just, it's just nuts. Well, I have two clips about the Ethel Kennedy died. Yes, Ethel, who I guess was not on good terms with the RFK Jr. when she passed. I don't know about that. Well, probably not because she's a die-hard. She was leading the family against him. Well, it's beside the point in the fact that he did indeed show up with Sheryl Hines both
Starting point is 01:24:08 wearing their wedding rings and holding hands. But if you listen to Nora, I get this under Nora, on the Ethel, something is left out of this report completely. Ethel Kennedy was remembered today here in Washington as a champion for human rights and as a fireball of continuous energy. Three Democratic presidents attended her memorial, Joe Biden, Barack Obama, and Bill Clinton. The widow of Robert F. Kennedy died last week at 96 years old. The head of a family that includes 34 grandchildren and 24 great grandchildren. President Biden spoke of how Mrs. Kennedy reached out
Starting point is 01:24:46 when his first wife and daughter were killed in a car accident. And then again, when his son, Bo died, Ethel Kennedy will be buried next to her husband at Arlington National Cemetery. And that is tonight's CBS Evening News. All right. Well, where's the mention of RFK Jr. is showing up at all.
Starting point is 01:25:05 That's more, what you brought up was more interesting than the three old dudes. Completely left out. Now there was a moment where it looked like there was an argument going on between Obama and Biden that was shown on C-SPAN. It became kind of a... People were doing AI voices on it. That was pretty funny. Well, I happen to have one of the better versions of that. You really buying this? Buying what?
Starting point is 01:25:35 Okay. This is an AI version. So we're agreeing this is AI put in there. Well, it says right in the clip, funeral AI. All right. What am I buying? What were you suggesting that I believe this? I hadn't seen the AI. I hadn't seen your clip title yet. You know, yeah, sometimes people that- Oh, these voices, the Obama voice is not good enough. I mean, there are weaknesses with the...
Starting point is 01:26:07 But I'm just saying, I love these AI bits because they're funny. And I don't... And they definitely have good writers. So here, so they showed this on C-SPAN, we didn't get to hear any of it. And it looks like they're getting into something of a beef. And so our AI community came up and produced. There's no Bitcoin community, but there's an AI community? Yeah, smaller. So it's more likely to be a community.
Starting point is 01:26:34 This is great. I'm all for it. This is great. All right. Can we play it? Yeah. So is Kamala doing okay? Nope. She's down, Joe. Hi. I think they found out that she's retarded. She's down, Joe. I think they found out that she's retarded. Now we're basically fucked.
Starting point is 01:26:48 Trump is killing us at the polls. So yes, we're gonna lose Joe. Damn it. Wait, wait. What if I come back to run again? As candidate? Yeah. Well, let me put it this way, Joe.
Starting point is 01:27:03 The only person in this world who is even more retarded than Kamala Harris is basically you. So no, Joe, you're not going back yet. Let's let it all play out. Okay. Let's just, we'll talk later, Joe. Women looking fine up in here. Good.
Starting point is 01:27:18 That's a more PG rated version than something else I heard. But you've heard worse? Oh, it was about Big Mike. Oh, I didn't see that one. Well speaking of AI, I was looking at this report, which is about, which is your typical and we'll get to it after the break, your typical, you know, oh, German spy chief says that Putin's not going to stop. He's going to take over all of Europe.
Starting point is 01:27:42 And then I heard something and I stopped dead in my tracks. German intelligence chiefs on Monday warned of an increasing Russian threat and said Vladimir Putin may not stop at Ukraine. Bruno Kahl, head of the Federal Intelligence Services, the BND, said that Russia was preparing ahead. Putin will continue to test the West's red lines and further escalate the confrontation. So I stopped right here.
Starting point is 01:28:05 I went, hold on a second. This is France 24, but I recognize that voice. Welcome to the Automated Daily Top News Edition, the podcast created by Generative AI. Now we're not just delivering the news. We're empowering you to become a storyteller. Create your own podcast using your hand-picked list of sources The West red lines and further escalate the confrontation. It's the same AI voice You really think so? Oh, I mean it's just filtered differently. Oh, yeah, it's it's they show the guy talking. No, no, no
Starting point is 01:28:40 No, it's translating what the what the German spy was. Oh, and they're using this guy's voice. Yes, yes. Without a disclaimer. Okay, I just need to say something because I think I'm onto something here about AI. My error in thinking, because obviously I want AI to destroy the social media, social network. I want to destroy everything. Yeah, you're a nihilist. My error was thinking that AI entropy would ruin it, but no, it's human behavior that is now
Starting point is 01:29:12 ruining all platforms, YouTube, TikTok, social media, anything that depends on- What's your definition of ruining? I'm going to explain it. I'm getting there. And I have a lot of stories to back it up. Anything that depends on advertising, which immediately invites people to game algos,
Starting point is 01:29:33 all of them, YouTube, TikTok, you know, GROK on X, Meta has Llama. They're all offering tools to their users to easily create content based on popular keywords, trending images. I mean, the tools are amazing. And this is what happened to me. I was on YouTube looking at something for the show and I see in the corner recommendation for this Delta Hawk DHK 180 V4 two stroke diesel engine with no electrics for aircraft.
Starting point is 01:30:08 I'm like, huh, that's interesting. And so I click on it and there's a guy at Air Adventure and I know that channel and I was like, okay, he's got some information. It's a very interesting engine. So you got suckered into clicking. Yeah, but then I wanted to know more and there must've been a hundred videos about
Starting point is 01:30:27 this engine. And it'd be like 18 minutes and you click on it and it would be one of these AI voices and really no information. And all of a sudden in the middle of it, some other program comes in and then it goes back. And all of these were basically videos that have been created by people trying to get views using AI tools just to get me to click in. The same thing with Diddy. Man, go look on YouTube or TikTok for something about Diddy. You'll realize after five minutes, wait a minute, I'm seeing the same pictures swap the whole time.
Starting point is 01:31:04 They're telling me nothing. And then you realize, I'm listening to some chat GPT script here. This is filling up all of the social networks, particularly YouTube and TikTok. And they don't know what to do about it. And then you've got the bots engaging and commenting. Go look at some comments.
Starting point is 01:31:24 Half of them are nonsense. Review sites, review sites of product reviews. It's all AI generated comments. Kindle, filled with books that are crap, just developed by by chat GPT. So if you, and I put some links in the show notes, people can go take a look. AI is ruining the internet. Here, I tried creating a TikTok video using only AI and people are doing 20 TikTok videos a day with AI. AI junk is coming for your YouTube feed. And then Meta is still trying to figure out how to identify AI generated images.
Starting point is 01:32:01 They are literally killing themselves with their own users by giving them these tools because, you know, we've got to make it, we've got to show that it's great. It makes nothing but sense. And it's filling it up with unusable stuff and the algos keep picking it up. They have no way to stop it. It's happening. And I think it's going very, very fast. I think that we're going to see these users, it's people at home who are making this stuff, are just filling up the internet with nonsense because of the model, because of the algo model that generates views and that gets you advertising. People are claiming $1,000 a day, some $12,000 a month, they're showing you how to do it, and it's horrible.
Starting point is 01:32:50 So I'm very pleased with this, obviously. I think this is great. And Facebook seems to have the biggest problem, because it's images that trend on Facebook, and then they go in, they take the image, they replace it, they change it a little bit and then they write a story about it. Click, you got another click. And X, oh man, it's a business model. It costs you $8 a month to appear at the top of all of the comments and then you just
Starting point is 01:33:21 run your little bot, let it go. It's fantastic. It's falling apart. And the good news is that podcasting, when it comes down to it, which has no algos for discovery, is going to prevail. That and blogs. You know, going back to blogs,
Starting point is 01:33:42 that's an interesting idea. Yeah, I think it'd be great to go back to blogs. Absolutely and speaking of podcasting Huh? Things are not going well with podcast with the podcast industrial complex I play for you the top story today from pod news daily, which is a daily Four-minute report on podcasting. James Cridland, he's a good guy. And revenue drops for this American life from Dubai, the latest from podnews.net with Soundstack earning more programmatic revenue.
Starting point is 01:34:16 Hey there, podcast listeners. Ira here. There have been some changes in the podcast industry. Basically, the ad market has dropped. It's harder to run a podcast by selling ads. And it's affected nearly everybody who does a podcast. In the last few years, we've watched friends at podcasting companies all around us
Starting point is 01:34:35 as they made massive staff cuts. Some companies have gone under. And because of these changes in the industry, this coming year, we expect our ad revenue to be a third less, a third less, than what we brought in just a few years ago. Now wait for it. One of the oldest public radio podcasts,
Starting point is 01:34:53 This American Life has launched a premium subscription version of the show. Wait, wait. Exciting a collapse in the podcast ad market as you've just heard. The branding is This American life partners. Glass also suggested other names of this American life boat or this American life support. This American life switched to ad sales by national public media from August. It had been represented
Starting point is 01:35:17 by the New York Times. It's using supercast and Apple podcasts to handle subscriptions. We would note that the staff page on This American Life lists 36 people on the team. 36 people on the team. No wonder you're going out of business. Oh man. I thought that was so great. I just smiled and said, value for value forever baby. And with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage. Say in the morning to you,
Starting point is 01:35:48 the man who put the sea in the UMCA. Say hello to my friend on the other end, the one, the only Mr. John C. DeVore-A! Well, in the morning to you, Mr. Adam Carell. Say in the morning to all the ships that see you in boots on the ground. Feed in the air and subs in the water and the dames. The night's out there.
Starting point is 01:36:04 Hello, trolls. Good to see you all. The thing, you want it now? Oh, no, no, no. I don't know, people on vacation. 1967, was our peak. That's low, isn't it? That seems low. Is that high?
Starting point is 01:36:18 What, for Thursday? Yeah, is that high? That's a hundred over. I can't get this right. How do you get this wrong every single show? I'm bad. This 1800 is the target for Thursdays, 2400 Sundays. That's all you need to remember. Okay, I'm remembering it now. Hey, we got lots of trolls there. Hello. Hello, trolls. It doesn't count.
Starting point is 01:36:42 Hey, we got lots of trolls. Hello. Hello, trolls. It doesn't count. They're trollroom.io, no agenda.stream in case that.io domain goes away. I hear that's a possibility. What? Yeah, yeah. Mauritius.
Starting point is 01:36:57 Is it Mauritius? I think the UK gave back sovereignty to some island that had the.io domain name and now it's in danger of going away. I don't know. It's one of those internet stories. I know we've got a lot of IOs. So I hope it doesn't. I'm sure someone will scoop it up and charge 75 bucks a month. That's what happens. That's what happens. Some smart money. So the trolls are listening in the troll room at trollroom.io or they might be listening on a modern podcast app, which is the way you want to go. You heard it. The algos are filling everything up.
Starting point is 01:37:29 If you think you're going to get podcasts on YouTube, you're going to be wrong. It's going to be nothing but AI generated slop. So get a modern podcast app at podcastapps.com. You get cool, cool features such as the bat signal that notifies you when we go live, almost instantaneous notification when an episode is public for any podcast. Anyway, it's good stuff. And then, you know, transcripts, cloud chapters, all kinds of wonderful things.
Starting point is 01:37:58 We run this value for value, speaking of AI slop. Oh, you know, we were having trouble with noagendameetups.com and the Reiki princess. So like, we can't get RSVPs and something's going on. And I can't get a hold of Sir Daniel who does noagendameetups.com as a service, as a return of value for the value that we provide in the show. That's how value for value works. And then, and I emailed Mimi. I said, Hey, can you see what's going on? This is the WordPress spat.
Starting point is 01:38:30 Have you been following this? No, tell me about it. So WordPress is a company and it's run by Matt Mullenweg. We both know Matt Mullenweg. Well, actually, Matt only runs half of it. What? Who runs the other half? Well, I mean, the WordPress. Half of WordPress is sold off to another company and Matt's got nothing to do with it. He's still, I think, in charge of the public domain version. Well, he's still the CEO of WordPress and he runs WordPress.org. Well, I think there's a lawsuit between him and the company that also owns WordPress. No, no, no, you've got the story wrong. WordPress, WP Engine is another company, because we could start a company tomorrow selling hosted WordPress domains.
Starting point is 01:39:17 And WP Engine did the same. They did exactly that. They're very successful. They make tens of millions of dollars a year as does WordPress.com. And so he may have gotten venture money, but the lawsuit you're talking about is Matt Mullerweg decided you're using the term WordPress. That's now our trademark. And it's very questionable. And there's a lot of people who are analyzing this. Doesn't matter.
Starting point is 01:39:44 What happened is in this, which seems to me almost like a gay lover spat. I'm not sure what's going on. WordPress said, okay, no more access to our plugins or certain plugins that WP Engine was using. You can't use them now on WordPress. I'm a little unclear which way it goes. It might be both. And so now these plugins
Starting point is 01:40:06 are breaking everywhere downstream. It's wreaking havoc on everybody. And it's really crazy what's happening. And a lot of hate going towards Matt Mullenweg, who I only know as kind of a nice, pleasant guy. Have you ever known him to be not pleasant and kind? No, he's a sweetheart. Yeah, so whatever happened, I mean he's gone full, as he said himself, scorched earth on WP Engine. Well he's not a dummy so he knows enough to do something like that if necessary. Well the community hates him. The community hates him. They think he should be ousted from the company and it's a big fracas. Anyway, that's what's going on. A fracas.
Starting point is 01:40:53 Yes. I said to me, I think it's a gay lover spat. This sounds like this has all the hallmarks of it. I don't know what's happening. So that's what's causing some issues and Sir Daniel's working very hard on fixing that. Other ways you can- Oh, I was unaware of this brouhaha. Oh, yes, it's more than a brouhaha.
Starting point is 01:41:14 Yes. No, I was unaware of the situation with the No Agenda meetups. Oh, yeah. Well, because no one can spell Dvorak, so they just, oh, curry. Adamandcurry.com. That's easy. We'll just do that. Nobody tells me anything. Which is good. I'm telling you now. I'm telling you now. Besides that, you can, yes, this is the idea. You're the filter for my information. That way, you don't have to deal with all the spurious crap. This is not a good idea. That's a great idea.
Starting point is 01:41:44 That's a great idea. So speaking of AI and value for value, we have artists, fewer Dutch masters than ever in the most recent batch. I'm sorry. I'm still thinking of the 35 producers they have to pay. Oh, the 36 producers. 36, okay. Even worse. We're not going to make it, okay. Yeah. Even worse.
Starting point is 01:42:05 We're not gonna make it people. What do you think Ira Glass makes? He makes bank. He makes good money over there. I'm sure he does. Yeah, he has to. Yeah, I'm sure he does. 36 producers.
Starting point is 01:42:15 This American life. Oh, okay. 30, what? I mean, I can't even think of 36 positions for our show. Well, we have tens of thousands of producers, but they understand the deal. It's like, no, they're not going to get paid, but we get value because we're not subscription only or behind the paywall, by the way. It's death for a program.
Starting point is 01:42:38 You may be able to convert now, oh, look, we got 50,000 people paying. Good, we're good to go. How are you going to grow? The only way you can grow is by putting mediocre crap outside of the firewall, the paywall and say, oh, you know, the premium stuff is on the inside. Kids, come on in, want some candy? This is not gonna work.
Starting point is 01:42:55 You become irrelevant because people can't just tune in and listen. Your relevance goes away and see Howard Stern. Before you know it, you're nuts and your whole show is ruined. That's what happens. And I'm glad that Joe Rogan got out of his Spotify exclusive for that very reason. For that very reason. Not this nonsense.
Starting point is 01:43:17 Oh, Kamala Harris is talking to Joe Rogan's people about appearing on the show. Really? He has two people. Matt in Colorado who does the bookings and Jamie who does the fact-check and production. What people? I don't believe this for a second. He doesn't have 36. He certainly doesn't. No, and he even said, I keep it lean, man. Yeah, of course you keep it lean. That's what you do. You have to keep it lean. That's the whole idea. That's the only way you can do it. We couldn't even afford to
Starting point is 01:43:44 have an editor on this show, which we don't do because we don't edit. No, what's the point? Exactly. Taking out the uhs and the ahs and the ums? No, no, no. And the hello! That is going out.
Starting point is 01:43:56 You'd be taking that out. I'm taking all of those out. So it was hard to find a piece of art that we liked. There was nothing really super funny or on point for the program because everybody's using AI now. Thanks, Sam Altman. Everybody's using generative AI. Yeah, we're doing art is great.
Starting point is 01:44:21 Art is fantastic. And back after a quick intermezzo from Francisco Scaramanga is there's no such thing as a free lunch, tanstafel, with, people liked it though, it was cute, it was a crow holding up. It's got, it's the expression on the crow that made people like it.
Starting point is 01:44:40 Yes, that made it work, yes, I agree. But as we look down the list of what was submitted... For one thing, wait, let me just say a couple of things. One thing, crows do not have big eyes. In fact, and they don't have whites. I've never seen a crow and you see the whites of its eyes. So it was cartoony. Looking at the list on NoahArtGenerator.com, Sir Joe Ho, who was one of our Jewish knights,
Starting point is 01:45:08 somehow thought we would choose Solomon's knife cutting a baby in half. I don't even know why he came up with that. I don't think we talked about it. There was some mention about splitting the baby. Yeah, it was minor though. We didn't delve into the history of the biblical context of splitting the baby. Which is a good story, but no. Looking further down the list, Clip Custodian, he did Haggard Camilla,
Starting point is 01:45:43 although funny, no, I'm not going to do that. No, and I will say I have a personal rule, which annoys Adam to no end. It can't be gruesome. The picture cannot be gruesome because I don't like the associative nature of gruesomeness with the show. Yes, which is probably a good thing, but I feel from time to time... Just a marketing thing. It's a marketing thing.
Starting point is 01:46:09 And so to have a picture of Haggard, Kamala, and then to associate that with the No Agenda show is... Yeah. No, that's out. Now you wanted... I didn't like it at all. You wanted the... Carter did free TVs, which it was a complete horrible choice because
Starting point is 01:46:27 the free TVs wasn't even centered on the train and and that oh yes I don't know what I spotted the fact that wasn't centered I don't know what you were thinking we discussed the guitar of Thrones tattoo and I think you were if I had done some convincing I could have probably dragged you across the line. Yeah, I was almost going to buy it. But? I still like the look on the crow's face. I just like the crow and the comic aspect to it. It was lighthearted.
Starting point is 01:46:55 It had a cute crow holding a sign. The lettering was too small, but okay. And it just was a nice, it was pretty pey. It was pretty and joyful. Yes. And the one tattoo that you liked with the eyeball was, I realized it's kind of gruesome to have a big eyeball tattoo. It's just, I don't know, it creeped me out.
Starting point is 01:47:20 I'm waiting for someone to get that tattoo. That's a good, I could see it. I can see somebody getting it. I might actually get that tattoo. Okay. I think you should, I'll pay for someone to get that tattoo. I could see it. I could see somebody getting it. I might actually get that tattoo. Okay. I think you should. I'll pay for it. No, easy does it. Simmer down. Simmer down. And then the other stuff was just bad AI. I mean, just everything was bad. Bad ideas, bad prompt jockeying. Darren O'Neill didn't even try anything, which is sad.
Starting point is 01:47:42 Oh, he must have. No, nothing. nothing at all. There was nothing from Darren. And I don't think there's a single original piece here. It's all AI. The real artists have given up because, oh, well, just AI. Hey, quality any day. And none of this is quality.
Starting point is 01:47:59 The AI is diminishing in quality. I think I can safely say that. It's hurting. It's hurting the show. I don't think so. I think they are, ever since the AI started coming in, it's improved the art in general. Okay, well, do you see anything good besides the crow? No.
Starting point is 01:48:19 No. There's been plenty of oper... Before AI, I will say this, before AI we had plenty of shows over the last 17 years, plenty of shows where we had nothing, nothing, and we had to go dig through the archives to find a piece. So this is not a new phenomenon. I'm just- The show material itself didn't lend itself to any great art ideas.
Starting point is 01:48:44 I'm just worried that we're not seeing any of our Dutch masters anymore. Where are they? Where are the Dutch masters? I think where's the last show we had an abandonment of listeners. We don't have enough Commodores We had lousy donations. I think the Columbus Day or Slash indigenous people's day. I think bummed everybody out. Yeah, it didn't help. Didn't help. No, I'm with you on that. That didn't help. Didn't help. Anyway, we love everything that everybody does because unlike Ira Glass, we don't have 36 people on payroll. We can just sit here and say, hey! And we can complain.
Starting point is 01:49:23 Yeah, we can complain. Do you think he can go into the office on Monday morning and say, you guys suck. There's no good arts. The editing is horrible. Now we can't do it. Can't do it. Can't do it. Not at NPR.
Starting point is 01:49:34 So yeah, I think we're doing okay. I'm happy. I am happy and we're here to serve you. So that's what we're here to do. And you need to serve us and keep us going. So we have the three T's in the value for value model, time, talent and treasure. Now we go to the treasure portion. Any amount that anybody sends is always appreciated.
Starting point is 01:49:55 It's up to you. Only you can determine what the show is value, what it's worth to you. And you can do a sustaining donation. A lot of people do that and they get on right in the round table, night, night hoods, Dame Hoods all the time. Um, but again, I can't, we can't determine what it's worth to you. And clearly some of you think it's worth more than whatever it's going to cost for that silly Ira Glass show with 36 producers who you're paying. No,
Starting point is 01:50:22 this is a community project. Community media. You have to wonder what 36 people are doing daily. I mean, tell me. Is it a daily show? This American Life? No, I think it's a weekly show, isn't it? Well, that's how much we know. We don't even know whether it's daily or week. That's how unimportant it must be. In tune we are.
Starting point is 01:50:50 Anyway, we always like to highlight our executive and associate executive producers. Here's how it works. $200 above, you get an associate executive producer title. That's a credit that is real. It's forever for the, for your lifetime and beyond. If you put it on places like your LinkedIn or IMDb.com and it's accepted anywhere credits are recognized. And we read your note, $300 or above, you become an executive producer. Same deal with that credit and we read your note and we kick it off with Scott McKay from St. Mary's, Ontario. Good to see a Scandinavian in there. And he does- At the top.
Starting point is 01:51:27 At the top with $625.93. Is that Scandinavian, I'm presuming? Well, it should say, actually you can tell by looking at the check. Oh, let me see. No, that is his Scandinavian amount. Yeah, so it is. So that's a, that's Scandinavian.
Starting point is 01:51:42 So that is, he's barely a producer. I don't know that it says dollars. Canada. It depends on where the bank's located. Well, anyway, he sent in a check and attached to it is a Post-it note, short note, ITM gentlemen, health karma for my granddaughter. Thank you for your courage. N62593, I believe that is a Scandinavian call sign. I think they start with N, I think. I don't know. I think so.
Starting point is 01:52:17 You think I'd know, I don't know. Yeah, you think I'd know. Anyway, of course we'll do that, give some health karma for your granddaughter. And thank you very much for coming in and helping us out here on the No Agenda Show. You've got karma. I'm going to read the next two because the one after that is too long for my spreadsheet. Agenda 99 starts us off at La Grange, Texas.
Starting point is 01:52:41 Or La Grange. La Grange. La Grange. La Grange, Texas. 500 bucks, he's got no note, Texas. Or Lagrange. Lagrange. Lagrange. Lagrange, Texas. 500 bucks, he's got no note, nothing. Double up karma for him. Or her, because Agent 99 was a woman. You're right.
Starting point is 01:52:54 That's right. Agent 99 from Get Smart. Hello, we're dating ourselves. Hello. Hello, we're dating ourselves. Doesn't count. Doesn't count. Nobody's counting.
Starting point is 01:53:04 I am. Kurt Kiefer, who's also in Texas, but he's in the more liberal part of the state, a little town called Austin. Get out while you can. 500 bucks. And he says, woo, sorry about what I just did. He says, I pronounce K-ifer, Kifer. Kifer, Kifer.
Starting point is 01:53:29 Not Keefer, it's Kifer. Okay. Kurt Kifer, once again, a big thanks to my Austin native, free thinking, brilliant, and I can't believe I forgot to mention this last time, which is probably why I had to donate again. Yep, yep. Yep. last time, which is probably why I had to donate again. My drop dead gorgeous all caps. Yes.
Starting point is 01:53:50 Wife Beth for turning me on to Noagenda. Oh, good for Beth. She turned you on. She's good. Life's never been better, he says. Wow. He really blew it with her. I guess so. Flowers help. Thanks for the amazing work you and the No Agenda producers do. I am one, better informed, two, more fun at cocktail parties, and three, now definitely the asshole at family gatherings. Way to go.
Starting point is 01:54:19 Excellent. You've got the trifecta. Yep. You can't beat that. Please dub me Commodore of Smooth Texas Highways. Go to NoAgendaRings.com and put in these details with your address where we can ship the Commodore certificate.
Starting point is 01:54:34 Jobs, karma to my sister, Carrie, and a belated biscuit for my 49th birthday. They always give me a biscuit on my birthday. I love you guys and boobs. All the best. Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs. Let's vote for jobs. You thought karma. Then we get a note from Dalton Fisher from Goodyear, Arizona. Is that where they create Goodyear tires? Is that the home of the Goodyear? I believe so. Well, I know Goodyear is back as an Eastern company. So I don't know. Maybe they just, I don't know what Goodyear, Arizona.
Starting point is 01:55:11 $500. So he's, he's vying for a Commodore ship. What an honor it is to support the best podcast in the universe. In regards to your TikTok report and Sunday's episode, I may have something to add. I work in social media. And several years ago, when I first started, my wife and I watched lots of TikTok videos for research. We quickly learned that it is very easy to get burned out from all the content to the point that it would ruin our whole day. After 20, 30 or 40 minute binges of content or more,
Starting point is 01:55:40 we would get what we called content brain. I like that. Content brain. You know, Mimi complains about this every so often. Content brain? When we have a real, when we have a, what we, you and I think are, is a good show, which is dense. Yes. It does, the listeners.
Starting point is 01:56:02 Yes, dense. And she calls it, she says it hurts her brain. You can't listen to it all at one go. You're just too much. We found we could no longer focus on anything all day long. We were very irritable and stupid. And we were anxious for the rest of the day. Content brain felt like losing 15 IQ points and getting ADHD at the same time. It comes as no surprise to hear that TikTok's own research found that it negatively affected
Starting point is 01:56:29 brain function. Needless to say, we keep the short form content to a minimum now and never show it to kids. Short form content is addictive and needs to be treated as such. TikTok is not only bad for you, it's big business. I should know because I own a videography and social media service that can get your smaller medium-sized business cranking out content easier than ever. Okay. We make your TikTok vids, insta-reels, YouTube shorts, and more from start to finish, scripting, shooting, editing, and posting all done for you. You're out of business. It's all going to be done by AI. I've been doing this for
Starting point is 01:57:08 years and not a single one of my clients hasn't had a video hit 1 million views in their first six months. We specialize in blue collar companies like lawn care, landscaping, plumbing, HVAC and contractors. We're based in Phoenix but travel all over the country for video shoots. Visit fissuremultimedia.com or email dalton at fissuremultimedia.com for more info. Thank you for your courage and thank you for the tax write-off. God bless Dalton and Fisher. That is interesting. In light of, I'll just play two clips. All right. We're going to be in this hour with today's Health Watch. New research on Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, ADHD, it affects about 15 and a half million adults,
Starting point is 01:57:49 but it could be much more common than we realize. A new survey finds about a quarter of American adults suspect they have ADHD undiagnosed, but only about 13% have gone on to talk to their doctors about it. Mental health experts worry that self-diagnosis can lead to the wrong treatment. CBS News medical contributor,
Starting point is 01:58:07 Dr. Celine Gounder joins us now. So I won't play this four clips. You can look them up in the show notes. I'm not going to play them, but these people are watching too many TikTok videos. That's what adult ADHD is about. The only people I see addicted to TikTok is people my age. So you keep this is an assertion you continually make.
Starting point is 01:58:29 Yeah, I'm not all in on the being a kid problem. I only see adults and blue collar guys too. You know, guys who do the septic tank. Just scroll. Look at this. Hey, Adam. Okay. Get off of this.
Starting point is 01:58:52 Yeah. I find it distressing you believe this. Well, I only have evidence. This is what I'm seeing. And I'm hearing. And ask the kids. Our kids like, This is what I'm seeing. Ask the kids, our kids like, nah, we take it off. We put it, they take it off the phone because they hate it, they get addicted.
Starting point is 01:59:11 Then they might bring it back for a day and then they take it off again. They keep deleting the app. You could be correct in this assertion. All I know is when I see Brennan and Jay, they're sitting around, once in a while they come over, I'll put on the big screen, I got something going on the television and they're on the phone. And then I grill them about them, I take pictures, I have photos showing what's going on.
Starting point is 01:59:36 Photographic evidence this has happened. I have lots of photographic evidence. I have evidence of the dinner table, you have four people sitting there besides me and the kid and he doesn't have a phone, but the rest of them are on the phone. And so I grumbot and they're playing Wurdle. Oh, well, so they pay for it. So they are in fact supporting the New York Times. They got to pay for it.
Starting point is 02:00:02 Yes. Wurdle is quite addictive. Well, I don't know. Tina was playing Wirtle a lot and then she went, wait a minute, am I supporting the New York Times with this? I guess the only way that they're supported. And she- That's how they're staying in business.
Starting point is 02:00:17 And she gave up her subscription. She said, not on my watch. Wow. Yeah. Baroness Nightsup, she's in Edmonds, Washington. She used to be Dame Night, she's Baroness Nights Up, now she's going to become Viscountess Night. She came in with $352 and she is exhibiting noblesse oblige. She is showing her responsibilities as a Baroness and now a Viscountess to help the show, unlike our Brahmin, the listeners out there who don't care.
Starting point is 02:00:45 Shame on the Brahmins. Dearest John and Adam, she writes, with this donation, not only am I an executive producer, I become Viscountess Knight as well. Please add all of the Arctic Valley, including the star, to my real estate portfolio, real estate. It's on a different line. My real estate. Yes. People out there have to know we do cold reads
Starting point is 02:01:14 on this show and we generally- We get the spreadsheet right before we do the show so we don't have time to read through it all. Yeah, we don't rehearse anything. Ever. And you can tell. In fact, we talked after the last show, we were going to bring something up and I'd forgotten what it was.
Starting point is 02:01:31 I have too. I forgot completely what it is. I need more Post-It notes. Somebody send me a pack. We're like, yeah, yeah, you call for it and I'll do this. I remember saying, we'll never do this. We're never going to remember this. And I even wrote it down somewhere. I don't know where sorry I will never be able to thank you too enough. She writes love you me
Starting point is 02:01:53 It says love you it she's got the way she's got it love you meant it. No. Oh Yeah, well says she meant well love you mean it is the nothing she means love you meant it. She meant it. Yes She meant, well, love you mean it is the phrase. No, I think she means love you meant it. She meant it, yes. Okay. That went 352. Thank you, goodness. All right, then we move to our, let me see.
Starting point is 02:02:14 Hold on a second. Our first, well, we only have three, no, only two associate executive producers. David, well, this is coming to the end here. David, let me see what David, he has a note. Is this David 270? Yes. Oh, goodness.
Starting point is 02:02:31 Dear John and Adam, I won the donation raffle at our Rogers AR meetup on August 24th, finally sending it in. Apologies, this is written in cursive, a small cursive. Apologies for the delay, so read along. I've been derailed with a family situation. Drink about it, our drink about it get together was so great. It's so, lots of super folks and even a knight and dame in attendance. Next time we will record a meetup report while we're together. I feel unable to adequately... What is that word?

Starting point is 02:05:27 And again, thank you to our executive and associate executive producers for this episode. Our formula is this. We go out, we hit people in the mouth. You know, on the last show we were talking about our view of Israel and the United States and how there are so many people who are just, I mean, and I get emails all the time, Israel's running our country, Jews, Jews, all the Jews. And so I went back because it was a recent interview with Michael Hudson. What are you drinking? Topo Chico. Nice.
Starting point is 02:06:20 That's our drink of choice here in Texas. So Michael Hudson, we played him before. He's a professor of economics. He's an old dude. He's in his late seventies. I put a fair amount of work into this because he stutters worse than Biden and it's really bad. And you know, I was able to shore up these clips by 40% in most cases But I thought it was important because he was back in the 70s He was there when the American foreign policy was designed and I'm talking about people like Brzezinski Herman Kahn and you know all the way up through Wolfowitz and all of these guys. The classics. The classics. And I believe he is telling the truth and I think this is where we are at when you look at Israel
Starting point is 02:07:17 and Ukraine and many other wars in the recent past. And I talked a little bit about this on the last show but I want to make this presentation. And I talked a little bit about this on the last show, but I wanna make this presentation. And it comes actually after this piece of information, which I didn't know as the globalist Christine Amanpour was interviewing the foreign minister of Palestine. And I didn't know this, but it was a ceasefire had been agreed to and then they killed the
Starting point is 02:07:48 guy. They killed the guy. It was Lebanon. They killed the guy in the bunker. Did you know that a ceasefire was agreed to? Oh, here we go. I spoke with Lebanon's foreign minister, Abdullah Abu Habib, who's in Washington to meet with American officials.
Starting point is 02:08:04 And he joined us for his first interview since the latest escalations. Prime Minister Abdullah Abu Habib, who's in Washington to meet with American officials, and he joined us for his first interview since the latest escalations. Foreign Minister, welcome back to the program. Thank you. Thank you. Things have reached a major crisis in your country since we last spoke. And I want to ask you, you are in the United States right now. You know that several of the administration officials agree with Israel's, you know, ground
Starting point is 02:08:28 incursion into your country. What do you make of that as you're in Washington trying to get support for a ceasefire? Well, they also agreed on the, you know, the Biden-Macron statement that calls for a ceasefire and that calls also the implementation for 21-day ceasefire and then Mr. Okshtin would go to Lebanon and negotiate a ceasefire, okay? And they told us that Mr. Netanyahu agreed on this and so we also got the agreement of Hezbollah on that and you know what happened since then that was the day we saw you in New York. I know and you were talking about going into the Security Council for this ceasefire and barely 24 hours later the head of Hezbollah was assassinated. Are you saying Hassan Nasrallah had agreed
Starting point is 02:09:25 to a ceasefire just moments before he was assassinated? He agreed, he agreed, yes. Didn't get a lot of play. I didn't hear much about that. This is all news. This should be, as CBS with Norah O'Donnell, they just play a bunch of stuff right at the beginning of the show about Trump. They don't talk about the Raytheon. They don't talk about the B-2 bombers. They don't talk about this. So, by the way, the people who think the Jews are killing everybody, you're not entirely wrong. But I just want you to understand the strategy and how that was built up in the United States,
Starting point is 02:09:59 which is something that is not working too well, I would say, as an aside, and needs to be dismantled. So let's go back to- A phone call. One phone call. That's right. It may just be one phone call. Here's Michael Hudson. He's talking about this strategy that was devised actually back in the 60s.
Starting point is 02:10:16 Well, the United States doesn't want to seek fire because it wants to take over the entire Near East. And it wants to use Israel is the cat's paw. Everything that's happened today was planned out just 50 years ago back in 1974, 1973 and four. I sat in on meetings with the Yared who became Netanyahu's chief military advisor after heading Mossad. And the whole strategy was worked out essentially by the Defense Department, by neoliberals, and almost in a series of stages that I'll explain. Scoop Jackson is the main name to remember. Scoop Jackson was the ultra right-wing neocon who sponsored them all.
Starting point is 02:11:04 He was the head of the Democratic National Committee in 1960, and then worked with military advisors. I was with Herman Kahn, the model for Dr. Strangelove at the Hudson Institute during these years. And I sat in on meetings and I'll describe them, but I want to describe how the whole strategy that led to the United States today not wanting peace, wanting to take over the whole Near East, took shape gradually. All right, so do you know about this Scoop character? You ever heard of him?
Starting point is 02:11:39 Scoop Jackson? Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Was he a warmonger? Sounds like it. Well, he was at the time, that was my era of being a Democrat. He was a great guy. Wow. Okay. So this is what I discussed on the last episode of No Agenda is that the Democrats actually realized that you couldn't get elected if you said, oh, man, we're going to have a draft and we're going to send all you boys off to war. That was no longer going to work. The starting point for all the US strategy here was that democracies no longer can field a domestic army with a military draft. America is not in a position able to really field enough of an army to invade a country, and without invading a country, you can't really take it over.
Starting point is 02:12:31 You can bomb it, but that just is going to incite resistance, but you can't take it over. The Vietnam War showed that. Any attempt at a draft would be met by so much anti-draft resistance, taking the form of an anti-war statement that no country whose leaders have to be elected can ever take that role again. The anti-war students showed that Lyndon Johnson in 1968 had to withdraw from running for election because everywhere we go there would be demonstrations Against him to stop the war No such demonstrations are occurring today. Needless to say although that's what we did expect at the
Starting point is 02:13:16 Convention in Chicago, but of course it didn't really happen that way because people aren't quite as animated as they were back in the Lyndon Johnson days. So instead, the strategy was devised as follows. So this was recognized 50 years ago. And it seemed at that time that the US backed wars were going to have to be scaled down. But that hasn't happened. And the reason is the United States had a fallback position. it was going to rely on foreign troops to do the fighting as proxies instead of itself. That was a solution to get a force.
Starting point is 02:13:52 Well, the first example was to create the Wahhabi jihad fighters in Afghanistan as al-Qaeda, and Jimmy Carter mobilized them against the secular Afghan interests. And Carter justified this by saying, well, yes, they're Muslims, but after all, we all believe in God. So the answer to the secular state of Afghan was Wahhabi fanaticism and jihad. And the United States realized that in order to have an army that's willing to fight to the last member of its country, the last Afghan, the last Israeli, the last Ukrainian, you really need a country whose spirit is one of hatred towards the other.
Starting point is 02:14:38 A spirit very different from the American and European spirit. Well, Brzezinski was the grand planner who did all that. The Sunni jihad fires became America's foreign legion in the Middle East. And that includes Iraq, Syria, and Iran, and also Muslim states going up to Russia's border. So, yes, that's exactly what's going on here. You've got to get countries who hate the other people that you want to get rid of, and they will do the bidding for you. I think we've been very successful at that. Look at literally Ukraine fighting to the last man. The last, we're going to kill every Ukrainian if we have to.
Starting point is 02:15:24 And we'll kill every Israeli ID every Ukrainian if we have to. And we'll kill every Israeli IDF soldier if we have to. If you're asking, why? Well, it's an age old issue. It's always about the oil. The aim of the United States was oil was going to, was the center of this policy. That meant the United States had to secure the Near East. There were two proxy armies for it. These two armies have fought together as allies down to today. On the one hand, the Al-Qaeda jihadists. On the other hand, their managers, the Israelis, hand in hand.
Starting point is 02:16:02 They've done the fighting so that the United States doesn't have to do it. The foreign policy has backed Israel and Ukraine, providing them with arms, bribing their leaders, enormous sums of money, and electronic satellite guidance for everything they're doing. But the United States has been able to avoid all the appropriate. But President Biden keeps telling Netanyahu, well, we've just given you a brand new bunker buster bombs and huge bombs. Please drop them on your enemies, but do it gently. So yes.
Starting point is 02:16:39 Well, it should mention that Biden has also gone on and on to say, he brags about the fact that the Ukraine war, we haven't lost. We're not one soldier. We have no boots on the ground. We're not, nobody's dying there from us. And he goes on and on about it. Yeah. Because, well, there are US military there, but that's neither here nor there. They're not supposed to be. Yeah. But still, that technically. Now we get to the, to the meat of the issue, which is the Zionists and the Zionists in America.
Starting point is 02:17:11 And he lays it out very clearly here, Israel is our foreign legion and it's the Zionists. How are we going to get these? How are we going to really have all? We need to put these crazy people in the State Department. When all of this strategy was being put together, Herman Kahn's great achievement was to convince the U.S. empire builders that the key to achieving their control of the Middle East was to rely on Israel as its foreign legion. And that arm's length arrangement enabled the United States to play the role, as I said, of the good cop, designating
Starting point is 02:17:47 Israel to play its role. And Israel has organized and supplied al-Nusra, al-Qaeda, while the United States pretends to denounce them. And it's all part of a plan that's been backed by the military, the State Department, and the National Security Operation. And that's why the State Department has turned over management of U.S. diplomacy to Zionists, seemingly distinguishing Israeli behavior from U.S. empire building. But in a nutshell, the Israelis have joined Al-Qaeda and ISIS's troops as America's foreign legion.
Starting point is 02:18:27 Now you start to understand how ISIS all of a sudden bombed in Russia. Yeah, so those of you saying Mossad, CIA, yes, yes, but it's really been a plan and it's the United States controlling, not the other way around. And so back to Scoop, real name Henry Jackson, he was quite the architect of this whole system, particularly on the US side. The US policy, as I said, was based on the US actually taking over all of these countries, again, using Israel as the battering ram. US Clark 7. Yep.
Starting point is 02:19:06 What the army called America's landed aircraft carrier there. Well, all this began to take place in the 1960s with Henry Jackson. Initially, Israel didn't really play a role in the US plan. Jackson simply hated communism. He hated the Russians, and he got a lot of support within the Democratic Party. He was a senator from Washington state, and that was the center of the military industrial complex.
Starting point is 02:19:35 He was called, nicknamed the Senator from Boeing. Jackson was fighting all the arms controls. We've got to have war. And he proceeded to stuff the State Department and other US agencies with neocons who was planned from the beginning for a permanent worldwide war. And this takeover of government policy was led by Jackson's former Sena days. These Sena days were Paul Wolfe bits, Richard Pearl, Douglas Fife, and others who were catapulted into the commanding heights of the State Department. More recently, the National Security Council, the Jackson Bannock amendment to the US Trade Act of 1974, became the model for subsequent sanctions against the Soviet Union,
Starting point is 02:20:27 claiming that the claim was it limited Jewish immigration and other human rights. So right then, the State Department realized, here is a group of people who we can use as the theoreticians and the executors of the US policy that we want, they both want to take over all of the Arab countries. I don't think there were any non-Jewish Americans that had that visceral hatred of Islam that the Zionists had, or also the visceral hatred of Russia, specifically for its anti-Semitism of past centuries, most of which was in Ukraine, by the way. So now the entire State Department comes into view. We understand the thinking and the milieu that Newland and Blinken and all these jomokes have been in, they have been educated for this policy that is US policy, our policy.
Starting point is 02:21:28 And let's make it clear, antiquated. This began during the Stalin period, when Khrushchev I think was the guy running it, when it was the Soviet Union, which is long gone. And the structure of the world has changed immensely, but we're keeping with this archaic policy, which is ludicrous at this point. And this is the last clip because the system is no longer working. It's not happening.
Starting point is 02:22:01 It's failing. And this is his wrap-up. From the very beginning, it's failing, and this is his wrap up. From the very beginning, they were promoted, supported with huge amounts of money, all of the bombs they needed, all the armaments they needed, all the funding they needed. And Israel is a country whose economy needs foreign exchange in order to keep its currency solvent. All of that was given to them precisely to do exactly what they're doing today. So when Biden pretended to say,
Starting point is 02:22:32 can't there be two-state solution? No, there can't be a two-state solution because Netanyahu has said, we hate the Gazans. We hate the Palestinians. We hate the Arabs. There cannot be a two-state solution. This could not have been said explicitly 50 years ago. That would have been shocking.
Starting point is 02:22:51 But it was being said by the neocons who were brought in from the beginning to do exactly what they're doing today, to act as America's proxy to conquer the oil producing countries and make it part of greater Israel as much of a satellite of the United States that England or Germany or Japan have become. That's become a precondition for their own solvency. It isn't solvent. There's no solution to a black hole that Israel's painted itself into. And yet there's no willingness to have a single state because Biden and the entire National Security Council, Congress, and the military, and especially the military industrial complex, says there cannot be any common living between Palestinians and Israelis any more than there can be in Ukraine, Ukrainians and speakers and Russian speakers in the same country.
Starting point is 02:24:01 It's exactly the same. It's following exactly the same country. It's exactly the same. It's following exactly the same policy. And all of this was planned and sponsored by the United States and funded with enormous amounts of money. And I would say Taiwan is on deck for this idiotic policy. So this has been United States policy. We are the bad guys in this.
Starting point is 02:24:22 And yes, of course, the Zionists in Congress who get funded through AIPAC, which is directly funded by the corrupt companies, allegedly, who we just heard Raytheon, they're the ones who the Israeli Education Fund who give the money to AIPAC, which flows through to the senators and the congresspeople who are all in on the military industrial complex. Except Thomas Massey. I was going to say, see Thomas Massey, whose wife dies very suddenly, unexpectedly, after he explains how this works. So the Jews and the Mossad, I really don't think that they're
Starting point is 02:24:58 controlling America, but this policy is outdated. It's not working. And it appears to me, But this policy is outdated. It's not working and it appears to me Specifically when we have our boots on the ground dude named Bahamut that everybody in the region knows this is coming to an end Trump's coming in he's going to change this policy and he's going to fix it and I really believe he's going to do that with The Abraham Accords 2.0 and will bring peace. We'll still get a lot of oil. He knows how to cut a deal, but this killing, this has to stop. That's why the Jews in Israel, they are mad at Netanyahu. They see what's going on. They know what's happening, but you can't come out and say it.
Starting point is 02:25:42 You can't say, America is running this show, which is exactly what we're doing. And just to laugh for a couple seconds here, Zelensky unveiled his victory plan to his own parliament. I will play the report first about the victory plan. This morning I've been seeing humorous memes on the internet showing how the lawmakers were applauding in the Ukrainian parliament, but with the video cut so that Volodymyr Zelensky just comes in and says Slavokrainy, which means glory to Ukraine, and then everybody claps, the implication being that there wasn't very much really in the plan.
Starting point is 02:26:21 Unfortunately, there's also a photo of the speaker of Parliament, sorry, a video of him inviting photographers to photograph the plan and he accidentally opens his dossier on the wrong page and it's a blank page which a lot of Ukrainians found, you know, darkly funny in Parliament despite the applause which meant that everybody accepted the plan because of course there's nothing in there that Ukrainians would want to disapprove of. A lot of MPs were very critical saying that it doesn't really constitute a plan it's more like just a wish list. Zelensky himself was insisting again and again on how much all of this depends on
Starting point is 02:26:59 Ukraine's partners and allies and a lot of people are saying well he's asking things from the partners and allies that the partners and allies have been pretty clear that they don't want to give for the moment anyway. Though one MP did point out that this has happened before, that Ukraine asked for Patriot air defence missiles, F-16s, all sorts of weaponry that at first the West seemed pretty determined not to give and ended up giving. I guess the hope is that it will be the same with NATO, but I don't think anyone in Ukraine is hoping that any kind of announcement is going to come from NATO today or any time before the US election.
Starting point is 02:27:36 So it's falling apart because everybody knows you can't just get this country into NATO, which is the top of his plan, invitation to join NATO. It's falling apart in Ukraine and it's so bad in Israel that, well, we had to do this. The United States has announced that it's sending Israel an additional high-altitude anti-missile system to boost its defenses against a potential Iranian attack. The THAAD weapon system is used to shoot down incoming ballistic missiles and will be operated by US troops in Israel. President Biden said the system would bolster Israel's air defenses following Iran's ballistic missile
Starting point is 02:28:14 attacks in April and October. The announcement was made just hours after Iran warned the US to keep its military forces out of Israel. So Americans have a great choice. Vote for the candidate who was endorsed by warmonger Dick Cheney or for someone who has an idea on how to fix this and was actually kind of underway doing it. But this, we are bad. We are bad with this and it's dumb and stupid and it has to stop. We are bad dog. Bad dog.
Starting point is 02:28:45 Bad dog. We have to stop this. Yeah. Well, we have to stop it. I mean, I think our intentions are good, but we have to stop it because it's archaic. Yes. This is bullcrap. We don't, Stalin doesn't run Russia anymore.
Starting point is 02:29:01 There were the Soviet Union doesn't even exist. We made promises that we didn't keep about moving NATO around. NATO is archaic, I think every, Trump knows that, but there's not much you can do about it, because it sounds good. But this old fashioned thinking is really an issue. It is, it is.
Starting point is 02:29:24 And for the brothers and sisters who are so worried, well, yeah, but they're going to cheat, they're going to cheat, they're going to cheat. Yes, they're going to cheat. So are the Republicans. Everybody's going to cheat. What you haven't heard a lot about in, because why would you, is that at the state level, a lot has happened with election boards and people in charge of how the ballots are going to be counted. So you get like this, oh, an outrageous report, Danabash, oh, I can't believe this, this is
Starting point is 02:29:58 crazy. A big court ruling yesterday in Georgia about how the state's votes will be counted. A state judge paused a controversial new rule from the Georgia election board, which is controlled by Trump allies. That rule would require hand counting all ballots. CNN's Sarah Murray is following this decision. Explain the significance. Well, the significance is that this was a rule that was gonna be coming into into place in late October and the judge basically said, look, this is too much
Starting point is 02:30:28 too late. He said this would cause administrative chaos and he's putting it on pause while it's being litigated on a number of fronts, including as you pointed out in a hearing today. You know, he also pointed out there's no training in place. There's no protocols on how to implement this. No training. So for now this seems paused. It may be appealed. On how to count. But we are just getting so close to actual election day that it's hard to imagine you could move There's no protocols on how to implement this. No training. So for now, this seems paused. It may be appealed. On how to count. But we are just getting so close to actual Election Day that it's hard to imagine you could move forward with something like this, again, without any training, without any rules in place around it.
Starting point is 02:30:53 So close to Election Day. I love that. And they're voting right now in election. Not counting them, but actually voting. Yeah, we need training on how to count. Training shouldn't count. CBS had a different take. It's not hand tabulation, but it's hand counting just so they
Starting point is 02:31:06 can reconcile if the number of ballots in hand matches up with the number of ballots that the machines say represent votes cast on election day. So they say it's about checks and balances, and that would it allow to look at any discrepancies to make sure, you know, there, you know, every now and then there have been human errors in Georgia that showed, you know, a box of ballots got missed. Now, again, nothing that would affect the outcome of the election, but the state election board says this would make sure everything was proper, reconciled, ballots equals ballots counted. It's Gillespie County.
Starting point is 02:31:45 There was huge moves like hand counting. A lot has gone on that is just not reported on. And of course, why would you do it? Although I did like this TikTok video from a voter in Oregon. It's even better with the video, but you don't understand what's happening when he got his voter packet. Okay, so this is the Oregon voters pamphlet, right? So as an informed voter, you're supposed to be able to read all about all the candidates, all the different political parties, everything,
Starting point is 02:32:18 right? Okay. So we've got Robert F. Kennedy Jr. He's not even running as president anymore, dropped out. Chase Oliver, I don't even know who the Okay, right. He's not even running as president anymore dropped out. Chase Oliver, I don't even know who the crap that is. He's obviously not going to win. Then you have Jill Stein. Nope, probably not going to be the one. Then you have this weird blank space here. It's just blank. Then you have Kamala Harris, Tim Wolf. And then where like JD Vance should be is blank. And then then it goes into us representatives. Isn't that insane? I mean, everybody's like, Oh, Oregon is like, you know, so liberal or whatever. They don't even put Donald Trump on the thing. That's insane. Like this is
Starting point is 02:33:03 why we need like an electoral college for states. You know, if we could get Portland and Eugene out of our state, the rest of the state would be amazing. It's just literally half a page just blank. It's in the back. I like to have somebody verify that this is the case. Uh, and this wasn't a rigged, uh, phony baloney. That's possible, but it felt pretty real to me.
Starting point is 02:33:27 When you saw it, the guy showed one of the blank pages and you could see a smudgy looking area where there would have been maybe a photo. Yeah, I thought that was just bleed through from the previous page, but it could be. It could have been. It could have been exactly what you just said. But I just found the whole thing, unless it's confirmed I I'm skeptical about that particular clip. Yeah, although it wouldn't surprise me in the least, right? I know I mean Oregon, Washington, and California the three coastal states
Starting point is 02:33:58 Are all corrupted in terms of their voting. They are too much mail-in voting I I got a ballot the other day to mail in. And Washington state's 100% mail-in. There's no anything, you don't have a choice. You can't go to a poll. I was a little disturbed by listening to this short report from the New York Times Daily Podcast about people who are voting by abstentia. So if you're in a
Starting point is 02:34:26 foreign country, you can still vote. This is their report quote of how to do it. Hey friends. Americans living abroad can vote in the US election. You can register or get tailored support at votefromabroad.org. State deadlines are close, so don't waste a second. Go to votefromabroad.org now and find your state. Once requested, your ballot will come by email. All you have to do is vote and send it back. Don't delay.
Starting point is 02:35:00 Votefromabroad.org. So you email your ballot back. I don't like that. And.org, how come it's not.gov if it's official? Where's the.gov? Thank you. Very sketchy. That's very sketchy.
Starting point is 02:35:15 Sketchy. Sketch. Super sketch, man. I'm told if you're in a foreign country, you go to the embassy and you can vote. That would be a proper way to do it, yes. I mean, when I was abroad, you'd fill it out, you'd send it through the mail that would arrive at the appropriate place.
Starting point is 02:35:36 But this doesn't sound right. No, that sounds like a scam. Yes. Yes, indeed. Okay, well, that was a good report. Yes. Thank you. Now I'm talking about the guy talking about Israel.
Starting point is 02:35:54 Here's a couple of odd clips. We have one of the Trump campaign classic. This is back to the Trump campaign classic. This is NPR. This Trump campaign NPR summary. How did NPR summarize things? Polls show a wider gender gap than usual this year. Women are supporting Vice President Kamala Harris
Starting point is 02:36:13 in large numbers, while men are leaning toward former President Trump. Both candidates see those gaps as opportunities to earn a few more votes in what looks likely to be a very close election. Today, Trump appeared on a Fox News town hall in front of an all-women audience. Here to talk about what he said is NPR political correspondent Danielle Kurtzleben. Hi there.
Starting point is 02:36:32 Hey Ari. How did Trump try to reach out to women in this event? Well, a lot of these women really, it seemed like he had reached them already. They cheered loudly and often. You could see some wearing Trump gear. Now, as for topics that they asked about, the questions they asked covered a lot of the things that Trump already talks about all the time, like inflation, immigration. There was one question about childcare, but
Starting point is 02:36:55 in his answers, Trump notably stressed safety and security, which is something he talks a lot about related to women specifically. He often says that women should care, for example, about an issue like immigration because to him that's an issue of safety. He always casts undocumented immigrants as particularly dangerous and by the way, that is of course not true. Bleh, except they're eating the dogs. By the way, that's not true.
Starting point is 02:37:21 Now I want to mention this. At the end she says, oh yeah, dangerous immigrants, not true even though there's want to mention this. At the end, she says, oh, yeah, dangerous immigrants. Not true. Even though there's rapists and martyrs beside the point. It's not true. Not true. There was a study done some time ago. We've talked about it on the show like years ago, where it showed that the immigrant base of the United States committed less crimes than the locals. And this was based on a study of the legal immigrants, not the illegal immigrants, which are now being escorted into the country. And they keep referring back to them. That's why she could say that at the end, that there's a lot of crime, but it's not true. You mean the report that immigrants commit less crime than natural born citizens? Yes.
Starting point is 02:38:11 I have this from AOC was propagating this. This goes back to 2019. We can't even get laptops in the hands of our district offices because the president has decided to hold the paychecks of everyday Americans hostage so that he can fulfill a campaign, I don't even want to call it a promise, a campaign fantasy that the vast majority of Americans disapprove of. And not only that, but in the actual address there was falsehood after falsehood and we have to make sure that we get our facts straight. Everyday immigrants commit crimes at a far lower rate than native-born Americans.
Starting point is 02:38:52 And not only that, but the women and children on that border that are trying to seek refuge and seek opportunity in the United States of America with nothing but the shirt on their backs are acting more American than any person who seeks to keep them out ever will be. Let's remember that next time it comes up AOC. Yeah. That was from that report. You're right.
Starting point is 02:39:15 You're right. And that's what they were basing. That information is still being used today even though it's not valid. It hasn't been valid for years. It's like crime has gone down by 2.5%. Oh wait, it went up 4.5%. Oh wait. Yeah, fake information.
Starting point is 02:39:31 That's a 7% difference. Oh, I'm sorry. Oh, that's not right. Oh, that can't be right. Well, they're just gaslighting the public. The public is just getting bad information mostly from the mainstream media who propagate stuff like that clip that you picked up public is just getting bad information mostly from the mainstream media who propagate stuff like that clip that you picked up from AOC back in 2019 which we
Starting point is 02:39:51 have a the show itself has long memory it's called the archives called being it dot io which by the way there's an a boots page on being it dot io you can get that same functionality for your podcast. It's a very smart guy who put that together, one of our producers, and he is allowing people to purchase that service from him, if you want it, which is great, because you can search anything. Clips, stuff we talked about, articles.
Starting point is 02:40:21 Yes. There's a clip, this is a clip that needs to be played, this is from NPR, this is the Sinaloa bust. I have it listed as odd. Mexico's new or ex-security chief has been sentenced to more than 38 years in a U.S. prison. NPR's Quill Lawrence, a poor Trenaro Garcia Luna, was convicted of taking bribes from Mexican drug cartels.
Starting point is 02:40:41 During the years that Trenaro Garcia Luna was supposed to be leading the fight against powerful drug cartels in Mexico, he was actually on their payroll. Last year, a federal court in Brooklyn found Garcia Luna guilty of working with the Sinaloa cartel. Prosecutors said he caused violence, addiction and death in the U.S. and Mexico. The judge gave him a $2 million fine and 460 months in prison, effectively life for the 56-year-old. Later this week, the same judge will continue the case of an alleged Sinaloa drug kingpin,
Starting point is 02:41:10 76-year-old Ismael Almayo Zambada. U.S. efforts to dismantle Mexican cartels may be contributing to what experts say is a steep decline in synthetic opioids in U.S. cities. What? So they're going after these guys late. Yeah. Welcome to the party, gentlemen. And then the thing is this guy's a Mexican official. They somehow, I don't know how you get this guy into the country to throw him in jail.
Starting point is 02:41:40 I find it peculiar. We've done this with a bunch of, We are an international police force, I guess. I'm noticing this on, like, television shows have been extolling the virtues of, like, for example, the FBI. Team America. Dick Wolf production. Yeah. And Dick Wolf, when he was doing the Law and Order series for NBC, one show after another always showed the
Starting point is 02:42:01 FBI is a bunch of bumbling idiots that came in and and interfered with the local police who would always shoot and miss and they were just terrible jerks but now you know he moves on to a series for I think it's CBS called the FBI trio he's got FBI FBI most wanted and then the one that just makes me shake my head, FBI International. Oh, that's interesting. And FBI International is about the FBI overseas, mostly in Europe, button into everybody's business because the FBI is the only competent worldwide police force. Then they have to move, they're in like France and they say, you guys don't know what you're
Starting point is 02:42:43 doing, we're going to take it over. And they take over investigations in France and in Italy and in Germany and every place else. And I'm wondering, what is this? What are they trying to tell us? By the way, you gave me a recommendation for a television show and I want to commend you on that. Mimi has dished.
Starting point is 02:43:04 I did the same thing with Mimi and she had the complete opposite reaction. This is Matlock. No, yeah, Matlock. Yeah, Matlock. The new Matlock, which stars Kathy Bates. Kathy Bates.
Starting point is 02:43:20 There's only a pilot episode out. I loved it. I thought it was fantastic and I know exactly where it's going and I love it even more. I don't want to give it away because of the twist. Yeah, there's got to twist at the end. You have to watch the episode one is what you have to watch. Don't watch episode two if you haven't seen episode one. Is there an episode two yet? It hasn't dropped. It'll be out soon. So Mimi,
Starting point is 02:43:40 I gave her the same recommendation with the same sales pitch I used on you. She hated it. Huh. And I couldn't figure out quite why and she never really explained it fully. She thought I was dumb. I think she thought I was stupid. Really? I quite enjoyed it.
Starting point is 02:43:58 And I'm surprised after she told me that, I said, oh, Adam will hate it too. No. Well, Tina was hiking in the Smoky Mountains. It was just me and Phoebe. So maybe that's why. Could be. It may rub women the wrong way. Oh, that's possible.
Starting point is 02:44:12 I mean, that's a possibility. I have one last clip, and I just wanted to make an observation about this. This is a France 24 report on pig butchering, which everybody gets these text messages. Hey, I see this number, but I don't remember your name or hey, are we still going shopping today? Or hey, you know, it's after you're done. I have to tell you,
Starting point is 02:44:36 I got my fourth call from the guy faking them like to be some of one of my kids. Oh, wow. You're getting those. Well, I have a comment after this. I just took about a minute and a half from a rather long report where they saved some of these people. And I had a thought about it, which I think should be discussed because we just see this as incredibly annoying and lame. And yes, it's very successful. Some say it's in the tens of billions of dollars getting people to invest in fake crypto scams. By the way, I think it's only black men. People emptying out their bank accounts, particularly older people. I've seen these scams.
Starting point is 02:45:20 I've seen how it looks like you're investing in Bitcoin and you're doing great. And then it turns out you were just giving your money away and they get people to get gift cards. It's crazy. I've seen people who have been suckered into this. It really is effective. It does work. The worst is the Asian women, usually namedI, who will string you along for months and show you all the luxuries that she's living in and how successful she is with this crypto thing. And they play a very long game. So this was a piece of this report. An enticing insurance policy.
Starting point is 02:45:59 An online romance that seems too good to be true. In the age of the smartphone, internet scams are rife, with hundreds of millions of people affected every year. CNNUGVILLE has, over the last decade, become a stronghold for Chinese mafia groups that rely on casinos and prostitution for their wealth. But these days, online scanning is by far their most profitable business. The mafia groups use torture to force their employees to work, as can be seen on these videos shared on encrypted messaging platforms.
Starting point is 02:46:36 This Thai man says he was effectively imprisoned by a Chinese mafia group for six months. He'd responded to a Facebook ad promising a well-paid job at a casino in Myanmar. But when he arrived, his passport was confiscated. That was the start of his nightmare. Every day we had to find customers on social media and dating apps. It was a romance scam. Make Thai people fall in love with us and invite them to invest in cryptocurrency. These modern-day slaves are said to number in the hundreds of thousands across Southeast Asia.
Starting point is 02:47:11 Local authorities are trying to rescue them. This police officer is waiting for news about several young Filipinas. These women had been confined for several months at a scam center near the Thai border in Myanmar. Like many other workers, they'd responded to job offers on social media. The signal is not good, but they are moving. I'm tracking them on the phone because they have shared their live location. So as I was listening to this, I'm like, well, hold on a second. These are human beings and they clearly need help. And he said right there, that was hard to understand, but he says they're sharing their location. There should be some number that we can contact or
Starting point is 02:47:59 or, you know, tell these, you know, when a pig butcher checks in like, hey, I know you're a slave, turn on your location so I can see where you are. I will alert the authorities. They can hopefully come and rescue you. I mean, this is, this is hundreds of thousands of people are caught in these, in these prisons. This is really atrocious. And I don't want to just stand by and be, oh, this is just annoying. This is bad. I mean, this report was stand by and be, oh, this is just annoying, blah, blah, blah. This is bad. I mean, this report was just filled with, you know, it had one of those YouTube warnings,
Starting point is 02:48:30 like this could be triggering. And it was horrible. And there should be some movement. Well, I find it actually incredulous because, or I'm incredulous because I can't imagine they can't just hire people to do this instead of enslaving them. Well, it's the Chinese mob. I mean, they don't care. They don't like W-2s.
Starting point is 02:48:51 They're just like, I'm going to beat you with a PVC pipe. That's what they showed. So anyway, tell us about your fourth scam. Well, yeah, I've gotten four calls over the last, I'd say couple of years. It only started a couple of years ago. First one was, and I knew about the scam from the, anyway, because there was some report on it. And it's also, my grandkids aren't that old
Starting point is 02:49:18 that they would call me up with a big, thick voice, hey, granddad. Yeah, I got arrested. And the scam is somebody calls and claiming to be one of your kids. Yeah. And you're like, if you're dumb, you say, Timmy, Timmy, is that you, Billy? Have you tried that? Have you tried answering like Timmy, is that you? That would be funny. No, next time I will. I have not done that. But the voice does say, Hey granddad. So at least they have that. The voice is Hey granddad. It sounds like I've had three, the Hey granddads.
Starting point is 02:49:54 And the other one was, uh, Hey dad. This one just came in like two days ago. Hey dad. And when the guy called and he says, hey dad, as if it was like one of my kids or something that has been arrested and he needs money, is the scam is simple. I've been arrested, I need money, I've been beaten up by the cops or whoever.
Starting point is 02:50:17 That's why I sound funny, because this is the way it supposedly goes. Oh, okay, got it, yeah. I sound like an old Italian man because I've been beat up. So I told, I told this guy not to hang up. I really urged him to stay on the line so I could ask him a couple of questions about the scam.
Starting point is 02:50:37 Cause I think I have had guys from India and elsewhere stay on the line and talk to me. So I'm hoping to get this guy. Cause I asked, I said, specifically, I said, stay, don't hang up, don't hang up. He says, I got it. I got to find out. I said to him, how often this works. And there was a long pause. He stayed on the line for a while thinking he might say something that he hung up. So I didn't get any information at all.
Starting point is 02:51:05 There's ways to do that. I've heard guys, there's some channel where a guy does this almost for a living and he's figured out how to keep these people on the line. Basically, you need to get them to start boasting about kind of where you were. You need to get them be really proud of how successful they are. Yeah, I don't think I... I don't have the skill set to do that. I know there's a lot of people, in fact a friend of mine used to be involved with their online stuff. She...
Starting point is 02:51:37 Uh-huh, porn. Not porn. She is part of a group and there's a bunch of these people out there that keep scammers on the line, string them out and try to scam them. Oh, that's great. That's great. It's a very elaborate situation and they try to get money out of them and everything else and it's just, it's fascinating the work they go into. It's just much work here's my question where's elizabeth warren and all that's my question too you and i have the same question where's elizabeth warren or the big talker oh i'm gonna get rachel rachel keeps
Starting point is 02:52:17 calling me i'm gonna show my support by donating to no agenda Imagine all the people who could do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fab. We'll have to solve that another day. Right now we've got a lot of things coming up. We have our meetups, we have Commodores, we've got some Danes, we've got title changes, birthdays, oh my, and the tip of the day, along with our end of show mixes. John, why don't you thank the producers who came in $50 and above. Yes, in fact, I'm gonna have you read this note because this is a daming note. This is from Lydia Terry Dominelli,
Starting point is 02:52:57 one of our favors from Clifton Park, New York, and she sends $170 in it with a note that you can read. Number four, hold on a second. I couldn't find it that easily. Number four. Ah, yes, here we go. Mr. Curry, Mr. Dvorak, thank you for everything. The sanity is very helpful. I was- I like the way- this is a person who doesn't space things out correctly. No. It was a little interesting. You had to see this letter to really appreciate it.
Starting point is 02:53:29 The sanity is very helpful. I was dismayed to hear that no Stripe donations were received shortly after sending donations through Stripe. So I'm sending a check. I was very tired when I made the last donation for my Damehood and could not think of a Dame name. Could you please add Dame... What is this? Pre-K.
Starting point is 02:53:50 Oh, Dame Pre-K Tommy? Tumay. Tumay. Oh, I'm sorry. Could you please add Dame Pre-... How come you didn't just read the notes? Come on. Dame...
Starting point is 02:54:00 I seem to have a... Since I'm old, I have a skill for reading terrible cursive. You should be reading this. Could you please add Dame Pre-K to my Damehood seeing as I've... By the way, there's another good example. Damehood, it's like Dame and then Hood is lifted above the word since. Since I've caught up on sleep. Thank you.
Starting point is 02:54:23 Are you sure? Thank you. Yes, sure? Thank you. Dame Prekay. Yes, you will becoming Dame Prekay for sure. And I would say to Linda, uh, is it Linda or Linda? I think it's Linda. I think it's Linda. She, I think it's Lydia, isn't it? Lydia Terry Dominelli. Yeah, we've had her. She's been donating forever. Yes, she has. She needs more coffee.
Starting point is 02:54:47 Yes, indeed. That's my guess. She's not getting enough sleep. Just thinking, you might be right. Lydia Terry Dominelli. Pete Federici in both a bottle, it's called Bottle, Washington, $117 and needs some jobs and moving karma for his partner, we'll put that at the end, Lucas Williams in Roswell, New Mexico. Yes, $100. The blonde girlfriend in Charlotte, North Carolina, $100. She's calling out a birthday for her hot boyfriend, Sir Scovey.
Starting point is 02:55:24 Yes, on the list. She, yeah, she's the blonde girlfriend. Okay, Omega Man in Lost Wages, Nevada. Another hundred dollars. John and Adam, he has a question here for you, specifically. He wouldn't have stopped except this is a question for me. Adam, you are the pod father so we need a judgment rendered on this. My complaint is that the term podcast has been hijacked by YouTubers. I don't believe that those who are doing video only shows and uploading them to YouTube or other platforms are true podcasts.
Starting point is 02:56:01 I have long held that audio only broadcast was the only true podcast or radio station and TV stations both broadcast blah blah blah. His question, unless a broadcaster is using an RSS feed, are they a true podcaster? Omega Man. By the way, he has about 18,000 episodes of his podcast. He's been around for a long time. I know him. He's got a pet peeve. Yes. Well, people call a video with people sitting around a desk with headphones and mics, big cans and mics, they call that a podcast. They will be sadly disappointed when their audience is pushed away by the algos because they didn't have an RSS feed for people to subscribe with.
Starting point is 02:56:42 The most powerful sentence in media today is Or wherever you get your podcasts and that only works if you have an RSS feed it can be audio or video For all I care. So I I consider so it's the RSS. That's important. Not anything else, correct? Correct. That is my judgment is so be it. Yeah, well you'd probably be the guy. Okay, Robert, by the way, I should mention I got another note from someone. I don't know if we have it listed anywhere, but somebody said that they noticed that Tucker Carlson is claiming that Joe Rogan invented podcasting. I don't think he said he invented podcasting. I think he said he was the first guy, the pioneer.
Starting point is 02:57:27 And it's okay because it's okay. I don't mind. I don't think so. And I appreciate that, that you say that. Well, I'm not saying it insincerely. No, I know you're not. I know you're not. Robert Pett is up.

You're swinging for the fences with the ISO list here from what I can see. I only have one because I spent my time doing other things. Here it is.
Starting point is 03:09:36 And I love it. I love it. I love it. Ooh. Oh, I picked a good one. Yeah. I did. Well, I've got a five. Yes. I noticed
Starting point is 03:09:46 Let's start the bottom. Let's start with unstable unstable and unhinged Her voice is quite grating to me, but yes. Oh, yeah. Well, that's a bit. That's the voice of a Brahmin Now here's one you will like, premium. Premium, okay. It's premium content. Oh yes, I do like that. It's premium content. Content.
Starting point is 03:10:14 Nice, nice. Go with nuts. The situation is nuts. Huh? Ah, it's also good. You've got good ones. A little muddy. A little too muddy. Kidding me? Are you kidding me? Ah, it's also good. You've got good ones. A little muddy.
Starting point is 03:10:25 A little too muddy. Kidding me? Are you kidding me? No, no, that's no good. No, that's really bad. That's no good. And then the last one I liked a lot, which is, hello! Hello, we have a winner.
Starting point is 03:10:40 Wow. I would have to say for me, it's between mine. and I love it. I love it. I love it and it's premium content I'm kind of about this the two combined is dynamite. I love it. I love it. I love it. It's premium content I love it. I love it. I love it. It's premium content. I think we have a winner We're gonna go with that and now now, ladies and gentlemen, as always, the most best part of the show is just tip of the day. Green flies for you and me. Just a chip with JCB.
Starting point is 03:11:15 And sometimes Adam. Okay, so I've been cooking over fire for the last 40, 50 years. What kind of fire? Like, just fire? Fire. Open fire, fire. Oak and you know, use every kind of cooking thing ever. And you look on these vertical smokers,
Starting point is 03:11:35 one of the best ones if you ever find it, they got bought out by Brinkman and they ruined the brand, which is a Cajun cooker, which is dynamite vertical cooker that use charcoal. But now is the time to start experimenting because people get these Trager's like Horowitz has one of them. I have a pit boss. They become very expensive.
Starting point is 03:11:57 Really? Well, the Trager's cost a lot of money. The purchase price is not... It was a gift from my 60th birthday so it was free so what do you say to that? Yeah well that's a good deal. So I'm going to, I'm experimenting now and I'm thinking this is the way to go. These things are, for people who are amateurs they don't want to learn how to use a new device. Take a look at the master build. This is the one I have is a master build 30 inch digital electric that uses
Starting point is 03:12:31 smoke pellets, not pellets, but chunks. You could probably put smoke pellets in it and it's, and you plug and go, you just set it for 12 hours or 15 hours or 16 hours and just let it rip. And you set it outside though, right? Yeah, duh. You put it outside. It's like a... Duh. It's a funny looking box that's like, it looks like a professional smoker only it's smaller. It looks like a small refrigerator. It locks and seals.
Starting point is 03:12:57 Mm. And you can put sausage, you can put four pork butts in it. You can put two, two, not one, but two 12 pound turkeys in the thing. Whoa. It holds a lot it's got four racks and it's a vertical smoker and the one model I was playing with is the M820071117. Now what does this run you this device? What is the typical manufacturer suggested retail MSRP? The manufacturer suggested price is $250. Oh, that's affordable. It's affordable. I got it during the Amazon Prime days for $188. So they put them on sale.
Starting point is 03:13:42 That's a Hitler number, 88. You bought a Nazi device. Yeah, Heil Hitler. That's what the 88's saying. But it's only one 88. Oh, okay. For people who like the idea of cooking slow and low, this thing won't go beyond 270 degrees.
Starting point is 03:14:02 It basically is designed to cook at 220 to 270. Yeah, that sounds right. It just, when you're using fire, you have to be careful because the fire, a good Texas style side burner, don't get up to, all of a sudden you go out there and the thing's at 350, 375. Because it's on fire. Because there's fire involved. But, and this is, this to me is something of a cheat.
Starting point is 03:14:30 And I just want to learn how to use it. But it's a cheat that I think a lot of people would probably benefit from. Because I don't think everyone really wants to cook with wood, burning wood constantly. And it's just an idea. So for people out there that, you know, you don't want to spend the 500 bucks for a Traeger or a propane device.
Starting point is 03:14:50 No, the troll room is saying it's a Zyklon B vertical smoker. They're sick, John. I'm sorry. They're sick. They're sick. They're sick. This is a good tip. And you can find all of John's tips at tipoftheday.net or at
Starting point is 03:15:05 noagendafund.com, both outstanding websites. This is a great tip. I think this, I really like it. That price is, it can't be beat. Can't be beat I tell you. And it'll give people the opportunity to cook properly, which is a slow cooking, slow cooking with smoke. And you can also buy an accessory for it, which I haven't bought yet, but I know I'm going to and eventually. For about 60 bucks is an accessory that slips into where you put your wood chips for smoking.
Starting point is 03:15:35 It slips into that and smokes on the side and you can cold smoke. No commercials. Cold smoking is an art. Are you done? Yeah, I'm done. No commercials, more content. You're no agenda tip of the day. That's right.
Starting point is 03:15:54 Don't worry. I'll edit that. It'll sound so professional. That's right. We serve you with media deconstruction to make sense of your life.
