goes back and forth and back and forth and back and forth, then goes to Canada back and forth and then to Mexico back and forth, then a car comes out. Adam Curry, John C. DeVora. It's Thursday, March 6th, 2025. This is your award-winning Gimbal Nation Media assassination episode 1744.

This is No Agenda. Without a modicum of decency and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA, region number six. In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley where we're all saying Democrats, free Wendy Williams. I'm John C. Dvorak.

It's Crackpot and Buzzkill. In the morning. Is she locked up? Oh yeah, she's been locked up for a while. I don't know, but I thought she was in the loony bin. No, she's actually just kind of just locked up with a conservatorship of some sort. Oh yeah, she's not well. The woman's not well.

Well, they figure a couple of things going on. One is that she had dementia, but they misdiagnosed it some people say and it Should it was diagnosed properly as an alcohol related dementia that would cure itself after you dry out That would be one thing as opposed to what they said she hasn't so it's a big controversy what you're doing big controversy What you're doing now is called engagement farming. I heard that too, that term, engagement farming. I love this term. Yeah, I saw that term today.

Engagement farming means you're fishing, like I'm engagement farming for who, to what? I mean the idea is that if she gets back on the air, she'll plug the No Agenda show. I think that's what the idea is. Yes. Yes. We are engagement farmers is what we are. Hey, hey, I'm engagement farmer here in Texas. How you doing in California?

I heard that Joe Rogan show. Man. Yeah. All right. Everyone's tuning in. They want to hear our take. What's their take? What do the boys think? Well, first we need to understand, and of course I'm speaking of the joint, what is

it? It wasn't say the union's speech to the joint session. It was a talk. It was a talk. Well, you were right about one thing. And of course we'd forgotten that the speech was coming up on Tuesday. On Sunday you said, don't worry, Trump will say something and everyone will forget whatever And of course, we'd forgotten that this that the speech was coming up on Tuesday on Sunday You said don't worry Trump will say something and everyone will forget whatever we whatever we're supposed to remember

Let's see what the American people thought of this speech CNN give us the numbers to the results What was your reaction to Trump's speech? 44% of speech watchers in our instant poll tonight say they had a very positive reaction to Trump's speech, 25% somewhat positive, 31% negative. Sounds like 69% liked it. I enjoyed it. It was a little long. I mentioned the newsletter, I thought it was over two hours, but it was only 90 minutes 90 plus minutes it was it was on so I have to make that

correction because we have to make corrections oh yes when you're engagement farming you have to be you have to be on point yes and I don't have a clip of it but he did mention the ships he didn't say big beautiful ships that was a little disappointing but he did mention bringing the shipping industry back to America. We're going to make ships, ships everywhere. I love my ships. Ships! James Carville went back to one of his old analyses of the president, which I

always find incredibly entertaining, specifically when we can understand what James Carville is saying. It's hard to get a clip of him that's legible these days, but here he is. Maybe I had a point considerably earlier than this when I pointed out on this very channel what Trump had red splotches on his hand, which I was told by any number of medical professionals, that when you see that condition, the first thing that you suspect is syphilis. Nothing beats Carville's analysis, man. Syphilis.

Syphilis. I did not hear this clip. Oh, it was good. It was good. Yeah. Of course, with everybody in the space, everyone in the podcast space, they're all saying they're calling for Nicole Wallace to resign. Resign she must.

This woman is horrible. She's a horrible person. And I figured you figured that I'd have the clip You know, there's two there were two clips that they especially foxes beat the death one was a mad-ow was the other one Yeah, I left her out. I left her out. She was a good, you know, hopeless and then Nicole Wallace who seems to I think she's senile or something. Something's wrong with her. And so she comes off with this kind of cold blooded analysis of the poor little kid, the poor cancer kid.

Which by the way, I need to set it up. In America, we are the land of Jerry's kids. When you put a kid on television who's either got leg braces and crutches or has brain cancer, 13 operations, we come together as Americans. This is our tradition. But we do. Make-A-Wish Foundation. This is what we do.

So this was an obvious one. It was a honey pot. It was so obvious. And Nicole Wallace... In fact, the whole speech... Was a was a honey pot. It was so obvious. And Nicole Wallace. In fact, the whole speech was a trolling honey pot. It was and it worked. It worked very well. Let's listen to Nicole. So let's just stick with DJ. I mean, I think that if there was a moment where your whole

body could relax and you could celebrate someone, it was the 13 year old cancer survivor who would like to be a police officer. It was a genuinely beautiful moment, and the moment that probably was most familiar to the State of the Union addresses we're both a part of. Problem is in the beauty of that child is the tragedy of the Trump presidency. Because we don't know how he survived pediatric cancer, but it is likely he benefited from some sort of cancer research. And it is a fact that Trump has slashed cancer research. It's a fact by eliminating NIH and

by all the cuts, pediatric cancer trials are halted. And God willing, he won't need any more treatment. But if he does, I hope that NIH wasn't responsible for anything that let him live this long. So first she is able to twist this into Trump's going to kill this boy. That's almost like saying Jerry Lewis is gonna kill the kid, you know? It's like, no, you just don't do that.

But then she took it to an extreme. I think this was a lesson in finding one thing that you let yourself feel, and I let myself feel joy about DJ, and I hope he's alive for another 95 years, right? And I hope he lives the life he wants to live. He wants to be a cop, he knows what he wants to do, and maybe when you have childhood cancer

that crystallizes for you. And I hope he has a long life as a law enforcement officer. But I hope he never has to defend the United States Capitol against Donald Trump supporters. And if he does, I hope he isn't one of the six who loses his life to suicide. And I hope he isn't one who has to testify against the people who carried out acts of seditious conspiracy and then live to see Donald Trump pardon those people. So now of course a lot of people had had all kind of... yes I know it's enough to make you cough a lung up. Unbelievable. And you know and she may have she sounded a

little slurry she might have been hitting the sauce a bit whatever was happening when I and I think the main point here is that it seemingly, it was kind of hard to see from all the shots, but didn't look like any of the Democrats stood up and applauded the kid. And I have to say, when the kid became a Secret Service agent and he jumps and he hugs the head of the Secret Service, I mean, how could your heart just not go, I mean, I'm crying on the couch. It was so beautiful. It was Jerry's kids to an extreme. Well done, Mr. President.

That typically brings us all together. Now in these joint sessions, when it was Biden, when it was Obama, the Republicans wouldn't cheer and wouldn't clap and Marjorie Taylor green like you're liar I mean we saw all of the same things But when it came to this one specific in issue

With the kid and no and you know the Democrats They were holding up ping pong paddles and that was the most pathetic display, but after watching that speech and that was the most pathetic display. But after watching that speech, how the Democrats responded in that very moment, all the rest is, it's all political. It's fine, I get it. And Nicole Wallace's reaction to the 13-year-old DJ, one must conclude,

we don't have a political problem in our country. We have a spiritual problem. As President Trump is bringing light into the world, he is despised by those who love the darkness. And they are afraid of this light because they know it will eventually expose their evil ways. This was not political.

This is a dark spiritual force that has come over this entire party. and they need like an exorcism or something. They really do. It's sad for them. They cannot bring themselves into any modicum of decency, as I kept hearing over and over today on the channels. A modicum of decency.

Well, the problem here is that I've been trying to figure out what is going on here. And I think a lot of it has to do with the repeated speed. And I'm putting the onus on the entire thing on Chuck Schumer. And I'll tell you why. The first time, this just started showing up on Twitter. First it was, I have two clips. And I don't have the exact, just the one clip of one of these people, but this is a clip of Schumer and Warren and Hakeem all giving the exact same speech with the exact same punchline which you've all heard.

This was the, it started with two, then it went to five, then it went to twelve, then it went to twenty-three senators. Yes, and I have the three talking over each other. We can play that, but then I want to play Stephen A. Smith's bitching about this. Yes, yes And I will and I will have to say and this is related because I watch Stewart's John Stewart's monologues on Mondays because he's actually for a lefty Funny it's very good stuff But he has been accusing Schumer of being the voice of the of the Democrat Party

In a very negative way. And he keeps doing it. And I just dawned on me that Schumer is the one behind this. Now you have to remember that this particular speech, Elon Musk came out and says, I will give us a Tesla. A cyber truck. A cyber truck. To whoever wrote this speech.

Well you better open up the garage door. Because you're about to reveal it. So let's play this. Let's play this. This to the speech for people who are not familiar with it. Sh** that ain't true. That's what you just heard. Since day one of Donald Trump's presidency, prices are not down. They're up. Inflation is getting worse.

The prices of gross gas, housing, eggs, of a... Just so everyone understands if you didn't see it, these are the three videos next to each other with the exact same script script almost in the same cadence and timing I think we get the idea. Well, you gotta play the end part, because it's the end that makes it work. Okay, I'll just jump ahead here. So they can give tax breaks to their billionaire's club. Their plan is awful. The Republican plan is simple. Families lose. Well, and that is the truth.

And that is the truth. And that is the truth. And so they all say that at the end. So Steve, so this turns out that they play this and this is floating around Twitter and then it, then more came in. They're all using the exact same script with then that is the truth. And this, and, and Bob, let me play the rant from Stephen A Smith here about it because it's kind of

funny, but then I have some comments. Now you see why Stephen A Smith was in the polls as a presidential candidate. See what I'm talking about? You see that idiocy right there? You talk about something, people being tone deaf. Why the hell would 22 Democratic senators be literally echoing the same thing and think that would resonate with the American people? All it shows is that the same fabric of our democracy is unchanging in the eyes of some of these officials and as a result the constituency they represent which is why Donald Trump is in office. What do I have to come up to Capitol Hill and give you lessons?

Seriously? You don't get it? All you did, Elizabeth Warren, Cory Booker, Chuck Schumer? Let's all get together, let's put this in a prompter, and all together, albeit in separate rules, we'll grab a microphone and say the same damn thing. And that's what's going to resonate with the American people. And then you wonder why you're no longer in power. You wonder why Trump is in the White House.

He may need to switch to decaf. His voice is kind of getting a little out of control. So here's what I'm thinking. This was Schumer's idea and the idea of having 22 or more, who knows how many really. We're going to flood the zone. We're going to flood the zone, people. I think there's a thought that, look, this will get us some publicity because people are going to notice that we're all saying the exact same thing, but they will listen

to the message and believe it. And this is what I'm telling you, this is the kind of thinking you can imagine somebody doing, you know, who thinks they know how to do publicity. And he's, I'm totally convinced he was behind the, the, the, the way the Democrats acted at the speech because Hakeem Jeffries told his contingency, the, the members of the house not to do anything, let alone bring up signs and do all that other stuff. That's all Schumer and Pelosi probably would gave it the go ahead to,

she's still kind of running things. Somebody pointed out that when they hauled out, uh, Al Green, Al Green, that the couple of the guards kept going to Pelosi to get the okay. Oh really? Oh, this was shown this morning. One of the shows this morning

they had this clip of it. What is she, they have to get the okay from her even though she is not the sergeant at arms or the speaker of the house? Yes, or anything. They were just making sure that it was okay with her. I just thought it was cool she was chewing her cud. That looked awesome. Oh she was just ridiculous. So I think, so this has to be, and it was It was just ridiculous. So I think, so this has to be, and it was Schumer and Pelosi and Obama behind the ousting of Biden. They're really running the party and they're responsible for all of this. And Schumer, I think is the key element. And Schumer's the one who has to,

cause I think he's the first one to give the stupid speech that everybody else copied. But it's like ludicrous to let Schumer do anything. This guy is not any good at anything. He's got no dynamics. He's not a voice. He wants to be the voice of the party. I think he may be wanting to run for president. Oh yeah. Well remember he was the kingmaker for Anthony Weiner. That was his boy. Yes, good point. Shows you his level of understanding and insight. So this really stinks of Schumer. Hmm.

Well, I think you should get the Cybertruck. I mean, I don't know if it's proven. I didn't write the speech. He was, whoever wrote the speech. I should get the Cybertruck. That's just what I need. Oh wow, I can just see you tooling around the Bay Area in a Cybertruck. What a sight that would be. Hey girls, beep beep, John C. Dvorak, surely you've heard of me. Friends with Elon. Do you know who I am?

I thought it would be an interesting way to just look back at some some points from the speech is to play the the Midas touch analysis Remember Midas touch is the new platform where everybody gets their their opinions from on the left This video has already 2 million views on YouTube. So it qualifies as M5M. And you start to understand the way, and it's always the same guy, as Ben or Brandon, or there's three of them. It's always the same guy in a disheveled t-shirt,

just a head and shoulders with a big RE 320 in his face. He's like, okay, great podcast. And he keeps saying play cut 21. He uses the cut, cut 21. So what do you think? Cut 21. Thinks he's a broadcaster. Oh, so, but I thought it was interesting because you can see how the, how what

everyone saw is twisted and how people will take this for truth. And I completely understand why they do that. This is the starting with the achievements Trump didn't do. Cut one. So we're not even halfway through Donald Trump's joint address to Congress. It's already off the rails and one of the worst speeches I've ever seen. We are not broadcasting it live because I don't need to show Trump propaganda. I want to show you the low lights, however, in summary

fashion. I think he's setting it up for us. This propaganda, it's low lights, it's off the rails, it's no good. We're only halfway through. I'll do a full review of what went down, but here's what's happening so far. Donald Trump attacked the Democrats for not applauding him for achievements that he did not actually do, but he's upset that they're not applauding him for hypothetical achievements. Play this clip. Fifth such speech to Congress. And once again, I look at the Democrats in front of me, and I realize there is absolutely

nothing I can say to make them happy, or to make them stand or smile or applaud, nothing I can do. I could find a cure to the most devastating disease, a disease that would wipe out entire nations. And I had to think about this one because I realized he's talking about the COVID vaccine. I didn't realize it at the time. Like what is he talking about? Is he is a cure for cancer? But I realize now he's talking about warp speed and that the vaccine saved everybody. It is an achievement he believes he achieved. Or announce the answers to the greatest economy in history,

or the stoppage of crime to the lowest levels ever recorded. And these people sitting right here will not clap, will not stand, and certainly will not cheer for these astronomical achievements. They won't do it. Which was an interesting way of him doing his narcissist bit. Cause he always talks about how great he is, the greatest economy. And this was a kind of an interesting way of doing it. Like these people won't clap for my achievements. And now we go into the gold card, even though it's a program that has

existed for many years at a lower price, at a lower price, at a lowered price. You just jacked the price up. And it exists in many years at a lower price. At a lower price. At a lower price. Yes, nothing new. You just jacked the price up. And it exists in many other countries around the world. It's just horrible. Then Donald Trump brags about the gold card that he is introducing, that he's selling for $5 million, where Russian oligarchs and Chinese oligarchs can purchase citizenship in the United States.

Here, play this clip. I like the oligarchs. It's only oligarchs. It can only be oligarchs can purchase citizenship in the United States. Here play this clip. I like the oligarchs. It's only oligarchs. It can only be oligarchs. No one else but an oligarch. With that goal in mind, we have developed in great detail what we are calling the gold card, which goes on sale very, very soon for $5 million. We will allow the most successful job creating people from all over the world

to buy a path to us citizenship. It's like the green card, but better and more sophisticated. It's more sophisticated. You also get access to all the club lounges in the airport. And these people will have to pay tax in our country. They won't have to pay tax from where they came. The money that they've made, you wouldn't want to do that, but will have to pay tax in our country. They won't have to pay tax from where they came. The money that they've made, you wouldn't want to do that, but they have to pay tax, create jobs.

They'll also be taking people out of colleges and paying for them so that we can keep them in our country instead of having them be forced out. Number one at the top school as an example, being forced out and not being allowed to stay and create tremendous numbers of jobs and great success for a company out there. So while we take out the criminals, killers, traffickers. So you know, an outfit like Midas Touch, by the way, Midas, everything he touched turned to gold, just saying. Yeah, but spelled differently.

Yeah. What's the point of that? That's their last name is my daas or whatever. But this is so poorly understood. Well, of course, a Marxist socialist anarchist to some degree movement would not understand this concept. But we're always selling stuff. That's what we do.

Just like Jerry's kids with the DJ. This is our American culture It's good to see it back. I don't think everyone can get back on board unfortunately But it's always been fun and kind of endearing and so now we move to the eggs then Donald Trump blames the surging prices of groceries and surging prices of eggs the surging inflation and the terrible economy right now and the markets crashing. He blames it all on former president Biden. You can hear the audible groans in the crowd. Let's play it. Joe Biden especially let the price of eggs get out of control.

Eggs! The egg price is out of control. And we're working hard to get it back down. Secretary, do a good job on that. You inherited a total mess from the previous administration. Do a good job. I actually have a clip from the agriculture, Secretary of Agriculture, Brooke Rollins. Would you like to hear her plan to bring down the price of eggs?

The plan is just wait for the chickens to develop so they can lay eggs. It's a five-point plan, man. Can we just jump right in on the price of eggs? Please. OK, so here we go. The first thing I think is important to note, it's a lot more. We rolled a plan out last week.

Raising chickens in the backyard is something the Democrats sort of gleamed onto. That was sort of an aside that certainly, if anyone wants to do that, that's not a bad idea. But at the end of the day, we had a pretty massive five-point plan. I was one week on the job. This problem started years ago under Joe Biden. Our five-point plan was almost a billion dollars, $500 million for biosecurity to lock the barns

down. Number two, how we get the repopulated flocks back after Joe Biden culled and depopulated almost 160 million birds. Number three is deregulation, getting the government off the back of some of these chicken farmers so they can get back out there right away. Number four is importing eggs. We announced a deal with Turkey last week to import almost 70 million eggs. We've got another couple coming online very soon to get eggs on the shelf

immediately. And number five, the longer term plan was putting some good money into vaccine and therapeutic research. The vaccines are not ready yet. A lot of people wanted us to move vaccines out right away, but we just didn't believe it was the right time. Not enough research had been done and we need to ensure it will actually help the problem, not make the virus stronger and jump to other species.

So that's the five point plan. So they have a plan. Importing eggs from Turkey,, which doesn't... Sounds like a lousy plan. Yeah, I'm not. I'm not. A billion dollars being spent. We don't need to do that. No, no. I agree. Why Turkey? I mean, why would we import... Germany has great eggs. Don't we have emus here? Can we get some emu eggs? They're awesome. Nobody wants to... believe me. Emu eggs. You don't want an emu egg. Have you ever eaten an emus here? Can we get some emu eggs? They're awesome. Nobody wants to believe me. You don't want an emu egg.

Have you ever eaten an emu egg? No, but I have had an ostrich. Yeah, it's about the same size. Yeah, it's a big giant yolk. The yolk is bigger than anything. It's creepy. It's about a dozen eggs in reality, and they make good omelets. They make great omelets.

All these crazy eggs, including duck eggs, which are really not edible, duck eggs are too tough when you try to eat them. No, I don't like them. But in a baked good dynamite. Yeah, we can get it, you start eating EMU eggs and you get insurance at the same time. Only in America, by the way.

I will say that Tina went to Costco, 24 eggs, $8.35. So that seems cheaper than the norm. Yeah, that seems pretty good. And when you go to Costco, it's not the tip of the day, but it is the tip of the day, is get those blue eggs when they have them. Oh yeah, they're good. Two more clips here. The LGBTQI plus was next on the menu.

Then Donald Trump mentions an African nation and the word trans and Republicans find this to be hilarious. Yes, Yes. Eight million dollars to promote LGBTQI plus in the African nation of Lesotho, which nobody has ever heard of. Sixty million dollars for indigenous peoples and Afro-Columbian empowerment in Central America. Sixty million dollars. Eight million dollars for making mice transgender. This is real.

That was a good bit. That was it. That always scores. These are good bits. And then finally, the real kicker. The funny thing about the transgender mice thing is I think was USA Today or one of the fact Checkers, they said it was bull crap but without even looking into it because it's not that actually was a

Grant yeah, I'm sure there is Transgender mice it's all minor money in the big scheme, but it hits home people can't count like oh, that's crazy I think eight million or six million dollars is what you encounter. It's a lot of money. That's not chicken feed. No. Yeah, it's chicken feed when you compare it to a trillion, but yes. And then finally, and this was the big one, this is also what spurred on Al Green. This

is the social security, Medicaid, all the cuts, doge. Then Donald Trump lies and says that he's found probable fraud in the Social Security system, which is basically just code for they're going after your Social Security just as they're going after your Medicaid. They're going after it. And I've already played clips in other videos that I've done where Elon Musk, who you just saw, get the standing ovation, who's basically running the government, says that social security is one massive fraud,

one big Ponzi scheme. So when they're saying that, they're basically saying they're going to get rid of social security. Here, play this clip. This is what the Midas Touch does, is they tell you it's code, this code, what they're coming after your social security. They have dog whistles. That's the same as dog whistles. Yes, it's dog whistles. But it's destructive because people, oh, he's talking in codes. He's coming after my social, coming after my Medicaid. It's very destructive. This sort of thing should not be on the air. No, but it is. Identifying shocking levels of incompetence and probable fraud in the Social Security program for our seniors and that our seniors and people that we love rely on. Believe it

or not government... Now they're already targeting about 7,000 or so Social Security Administration workers to be fired. They're shutting down Social Security offices. I saw an individual 80 years old. She called the Social Security Administration today for applications and they said the wait time is somewhere in the range of 200 to 300 days based on staff reduction. I'll do a whole other video of that in the morning. But this was I believe that besides the transgender hill that the Democrats want to die on, this is their strategy.

Their strategy is to say the Republicans are going to cut Medicaid, cut Social Security. They're horrible people. You must go out on the street. You must protest. You must be in their face. Everything you need to do. And this is why Al Green stood up and here he is post his removal from the joint session. So what were you shouting to the president?

The president said he had a mandate and I was making it clear to the president that he has no mandate to cut Medicaid. I have people who are very fearful, these are poor people, and they have only Medicaid in their lives when it comes to their health care. And I want him to know that his budget calls for deep cuts in Medicaid. He needs to save Medicaid, protect it. We need to raise the cap on social security. There's a possibility that it's going to be hurt and we've got to protect Medicare.

These are the safety net programs that people in my congressional district depend on. And this president seems to care less about them and more about the number of people that he can remove from the various programs that have been so helpful to so many people. So these are lies. These are lies And I had to do a deep dive and get the truth because no one actually seems to be telling anyone, broadcasting anywhere, what is really happening. And it's quite simple. I just like to run through it. This bill from the 118th Congress, it's from the previous administration actually, states that roughly $750 billion in total was paid out improperly between 2021 and 2023.

That's a lot of money in two years. About 9% of those improper payments were Medicaid, that's about $67.5 billion, or $22.5 billion per year. This means, according to this bill, the money was paid to fraudulent claims or they continue paying the person after they're no longer eligible. So step one, and this is again from the previous Congress,

stopping those payments and reduce the budget to account for the reduction. Step two, they want states to have more control over how their Medicaid programs are set up. It means the states have to kick in a portion of the funding, which is why you get a lot of pushback, of course, from their state revenues based on their individual needs. States would be required to more strictly audit the Medicaid systems on an annual basis in order to reduce the amount of fraudulent claims and improper payments. So far we've cut nothing except we're going after fraud.

And then step three, work requirements. This is a big one. And there's a lot of ladies on the TikTok complaining about this. In the bill it claims that about 25% of Americans receive Medicaid because Medicaid eligibility is determined by disability or income level. Many Medicaid recipients are completely able-bodied. The budget proposal that came in during Biden required able-bodied adults without dependents to work, engage in community service, or participate in

a work training program for at least 80 hours per month to remain eligible for Medicaid. So all of this was the budget levels for throughout fiscal year 2034, and again was proposed in the House under Joe Biden. Now the new House budget for the 119th Congress does of course not specifically mention Medicaid, though this is, you know, everyone's all in a tizzy

because it directs the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, which oversees Medicaid, to submit changes in laws within its jurisdiction to reduce the deficit by no less than $880 billion. But this is for the next 10 years. It's $88 billion per year, not $880 billion because, you know, everyone's conflating this $800, roughly $800 billion number with, oh, that's all of Medicaid. So it's 88 billion per year, 23 billion of which will already be achieved if improper payments are stopped. So it's really a complete canard farce and wet fart

what they're doing here. But no one takes the time to just explain it for two seconds. Why? Why would you do that? You want to get people worked up till they listen more? What am I thinking? I'm so wrong. Clickbait.

Engagement farming. Yes, this is what it is. So the whole thing is just dumb. But otherwise, by the way, I have to say Sir Mark Hall was here with us. He stayed, we went to an event at the Patriot Academy and he stayed overnight. So he watched the speech together. He's from Houston. He's like, oh, Al Green is the most corrupt politician there is.

He said everybody in Houston despises him. Like, well, how come he keeps getting reelected? And I haven't gotten an answer. That question was. I did not get an answer yet. Must be the corruption. I don't know. Yeah, sure it is. I don't know.

But it's so, you know, go and tell your, your, your friends and family who are all spun up over this, that it's nothing. This literally nothing. It is finding the so-called waste fraud and abuse, which is not that hard to find when you dig into it. The problem is there may be some back-end deals that some people don't want us to find out about. That's the, no, that is the problem.

That is the problem. That is the problem. And yeah, I did like the one bit, I don't know if you had the clip of it where he calls out, uh, Pocahontas as Pocahontas in front of everyone. And she actually responded to it quite, I thought, uh, jocularly, she was clapping and laughing. Well, her head was shaking a bit. You know, it's like, she had like kind of a little bit of a Parkinson's shake there. I don't know if that's just something that she has.

It could be. Yeah. She might have some issues. You know, where was Clarence Thomas though? I missed him. He wasn't sitting with the Supreme Court judges. I didn't see him at all. Should we be concerned? He may not have shown up.

Yeah, I'm just wondering if we should be concerned. You don't have to go to these things. Well, everyone else went. It was a good party. Could be clapping and hooting and hollering. Or like those guys, you have to sit there the whole time. Don't crack a smile. Yeah, you have to sit there dour. Don't crack a smile. Also the Joint Chiefs, they, the Joint Chiefs, all the military guys are sitting there, same thing, dour. Except when they announced the cop or something, they all stood up.

One police guy and that was the end of it. Yeah. That was kind of odd. Anyway, it gave everybody a few more days or something to talk about. So President Trump will have to do something quick before Sunday show. Yeah, I think he'll probably do something tomorrow. But the thing that's interesting to me is that they let him go on for 90 minutes. This was a promotional speech.

The networks all played it. PBS played it. A number of cable networks played it. They all played it. Actually, the cable networks, the news networks played it. Free airtime, baby. It's perfect. It's free airtime.

I mean, I think Trump knows this. He saw it. He says, look, I don't know how much I can get away with this. He said, look. this he saw it he says look this I don't know how much I know I can get away with this he said look I we're gonna you know because it's not the State of the Union even though some people said it was it wasn't it was not the State of the Union speech which they have to which they will carry this is just a bonus speech that he figures if they're gonna all put me on the air for 90 minutes I'm I'm good with it but it's not even the Constitution

doesn't even call for a state of the Union. No, no the whole thing is bull crap. Yeah, who started that? Because it used to be just a letter. The president would just send a letter to everybody like yeah things are doing okay or things are not going okay. Yes, this is true in the 1800ss, it was just a letter. Once TV came into play. Here, the president shall from time to time give the Congress information. Time to time, which means what? Prime time. It means prime time.

Prime time network TV. It does say, I stand corrected, give the Congress information of the State of the Union and recommend to their consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient. So it is called specifically the State of the Union. But that's just more of a form of expression, I think. It's not like the State of the Union. It could be a letter. They could go to that, but no, who in their, as president, who in their right mind doesn't want to get up there and start bragging about what they did to the entire public with the

networks they've cut their right into prime time. I mean, Trump does it right. He starts at six o'clock west coast time. I mean, come on. It was in fact a Democrat president Woodrow Wilson who started the speech. The speech. Oh he did probably for radio. Yes. Yeah so he did. Once mass communications came into play things changed. But it was a little confusing for the networks because they didn't know if they needed the drums you know boom boom boom boom straight up your ear boom boom boom boom boom. They didn't know what to do with it like I don't know what's he doing? He ran over I said I saw the times that were allotted and they ran over into every bunch of prime time shows and they still carried it and everybody was live afterwards with

their analysis yeah and boy the best one was Capehart oh do you have him? Oh my god was he. Do you have it? Do you have a clip? No, I don't because it was just you have it because it's the visual, the pursed lips, the look of scorn. It was just a dynamite. That's good. Dynamite thing. He was he was just beside himself. I think the real action though, the real action this week for my money was Europe. I mean, that's where the real action is taking place. I have two identical clips from France 24 and Deutsche Welle, and then I'd like to play the clips of what Ursula, Queen Ursula actually said, because there's action taking place and it's going to impact a lot of things.

Here's just 30 seconds, France, France, France, Van Katra. Well, meanwhile, the European Union Commission Chief has presented a plan to mobilize 800 billion euros for European defense. Let's hear what Ursula von der Leyen had to say. Europe is ready to assume its responsibilities. Rearmed Europe could mobilize close to 800 billion euros of defense expenditures for safe and resilient Europe. We will of course continue working closely with our partners in NATO. This is a moment for Europe and we are ready to step up.

So that was the French connection. Deutsche Welle, very similar. European Union Commission President Ursula von der Leyen says Europe is ready to massively boost its defense spending and take responsibility for European security. She has proposed a five-part plan to mobilize some 800 billion euros for defense and pledged immediate military support for Ukraine after the U.S. paused aid to the country. Here's what she's been saying. Europe is ready to assume its responsibilities. Rearmed Europe could mobilize close to 800 billion euros of defense expenditures for safe and resilient Europe.

We will of course continue working closely with our partners in NATO. This is a moment for Europe and we are ready to step up. So exactly the same but they are not informing their constituents, their viewers, their people of Europe. They're not telling them what the actual plan is. So those of you in the European Union, which is not the same as Europe, and you're not yet the United States of Europe, allow me to run through the five-point plan that Queen Ursula actually unveiled. Now there are five points to

this plan. The first part of this Rearm Europe plan is to unleash the use of public funding and defense on the national level. That's your money Europe. Member states are ready to invest more in their own security if they have the fiscal space. Fiscal space means borrowing. So we must enable them to do so. And this is why we will propose to activate the National Escape Clause of the Stability and Growth Pact. This is where red flags went off for me.

The National Escape Clause? The General Escape Clause? The Escape Clause? the national escape clause, the general escape clause, the escape clause. So I go looking at the Stability and Growth Pact, which is this document that I think started in 1999, and they keep upgrading it. And during COVID, they entered this escape clause, which means if there's anything that threatens the existence of the EU, the existence of the Europeans, like COVID, it even says it specifically, like COVID, then we can use the escape clause, which means everybody can go spend whatever they want, borrow all the money, let's go, go, go. And that's what she's activating here. This will allow member states to significantly increase their defense expenditures without triggering the excessive deficit procedure. So if...

So the Europeans aren't allowed to borrow, you know, they can't have deficits up to some certain level, but now you can. Procedure. So if member states would increase their defense spending by 1.5% of GDP on average, this could create fiscal space of close to 650 billion euros over a period of four years. So she's taking away the rules now. And this is interesting to do because the United States, we can borrow money because we print our money, everybody uses our money. It's not exactly the same with the Euro. It's a little different when you don't have the reserve currency of the world.

So that's for the next four years. We need some money right now, Queen Ursula. Zelensky wants it. The second proposal will be a new instrument. It will provide 150 billion euros of loans Loans? for member states, for defense investment. This is about basically spending better and spending together.

And we're talking about Pan-Europe. Spending better and spending together. That's it. Peen capability. Just spending better? Yeah, spend back better. By borrowing 150. Just spending better? Spend back better. By borrowing 150 billion to buy bombs? Oh yeah. In about pan-European capabilities domains like for example air and missile

defense, the artillery systems, missiles and ammunition, drones and anti-drone systems, but also to address other needs from cyber to military mobility for example. This will help member states to pull demand and to buy together. This will help member states to pull demand and to buy together. And of course, with this equipment, member states can massively step up their support to Ukraine. So immediate military equipment for Ukraine. This approach of joint procurement will also reduce costs. It will reduce fragmentation, but it will increase... What? It will reduce costs.

How does it reduce costs when you just borrowed 150 billion to buy something you blow up? Yeah, well, it's reducing costs. Shh, it's reducing costs. ...report to Ukraine. So immediate military equipment for Ukraine. This approach of joint procurement will also reduce costs, it will reduce fragmentation, but it will increase interoperability and of course strengthen our defense industrial base. And it can be to the benefit of Ukraine as I've just described.

So this is Europe's moment and we must live up to it. This is your moment Europe. Now how do we really finance all of this? We need to get the banks and the rich families. War is a racket. This is beautiful Everybody with some money get ready. You can make a ton of dough on this The third point is using the power of the EU budget Yeah, that's that by the way is absolutely your tax euros at work that the euro So they're centralizing everything in Brussels,

which has always been the plan. She keeps conflating EU with Europe throughout this speech. You know, it's like, Europe, EU, but it's all gonna be controlled by Brussels. Brussels is going to control all of this procurement. They're gonna control the money flow, which means you'll get federal EU taxes pretty soon to pay it all back.

And there's a lot we can do in this domain in the short term to direct more funds towards defense related investments. Instead of schooling, housing, food, kids, whatever. And this is why I can announce that we will propose additional possibilities and incentives for member states that they will decide if they want to use cohesion policy programs to increase defense spending. Now the last two areas of action aim at mobilizing private capital by accelerating the savings and investment union and of course through the European Investment Bank.

There it is everybody, come on bankers. So to conclude, Europe is ready to assume its responsibilities. Rearm Europe could mobilize close to 800 billion euros of defense expenditures for safe and resilient Europe. We will of course continue working closely with our partners. Notice she says resilient Europe and not EU. In NATO. This is a moment for Europe and we are ready to step up. Thank you very much.

There you go. And of course, right away, Mr. Peepers, the new king in Germany, he steps up and says, Jawohl! The man likely to be Germany's next Chancellor has announced a major financial package to boost the country's ailing economy and substantially increase defense spending. Friedrich Merz of the center-right CDU said 500 billion euros would be borrowed to fix infrastructure and that strict government debt rules could be eased to increase the military budget. Matt's conservative bloc won February's elections and are trying to form a government with the

centre-left social democrats who came third. Matt said the measures were urgent in the wake of recent decisions made in the United States. I want to say this very clearly in view of the threats to our freedom and peace on our continent. The same must now apply to our defense. Whatever it takes. Yeah there you go Germany. Whatever it takes. All your money. They're gonna take all of it and then listen to the Danish Prime Minister. This woman's a ghoul. I don't think we should panic, but I think we are in a hurry. And I think we have been in a hurry for three years,

but now we really have to scale up and to speed up because Russia and Putin is not only threatening Ukraine, but all of us. And we have to be able to defend ourselves. My idea about Ukraine is the same as it has been now for three years that they have to win this war and if we allow Russia to win the war I'm sorry to say directly to all of you he will continue and they will continue and maybe we will even give them a better situation than today because if we end this war now situation than today because if we end this war now with some kind of a frozen conflict, a ceasefire, it will give Russia the possibility to return to Russia, to mobilize more funds, people, and maybe to attack another country in Europe. So if we have peace now, Russia is going to go back, regroup, raise more money and come back and attack another European country. It could be yours.

That makes nothing but sense. These people are nuts. They are nuts. I have a couple of short anal clips about this. We've got to get away from them as fast as we can. I mean, I think we've put up with it long enough. Here's, I just want to do these quick ones and then I'll hand it over to you, Bob. This is Andrew Rasulis.

He's the former, actually, I identify him, former defense guy in Canada. I like his analysis. Andrew Rasulis, he's a fellow with the Canadian Global Affairs Institute and a retired Department of National Defense official. And Andrew, how will this pause change what's happening in Ukraine on the ground? Well, it will make the Ukrainians think very clearly whether they wish to continue on the long war, which is what Zelensky said today,

and this is what Trump is reacting to. Because Trump is saying, no, you're not gonna fight a long war, not with our aid. That's why he's given the pause. So the Ukrainians have to really think hard now, whether they will back down from their insistence on US guarantees and insistence on fighting a long war with Russia until they get the just peace, as they define it, or they will back down, allow Trump

to negotiate a deal with Russia that Ukraine will side all up to. That's really what this has come down to now. And of course, Ukraine really can't do anything without the US, even if the European Union wrote a big check today. And how much does Ukraine rely on USAID? It's a 40% figure versus 60% what others supply. But in the 40% are critical American military assets that no other country can substitute.

For example, the long range missiles that hit deep inside Russia, that's American controlled and American manufacturer, or they control the I, the, the license for those I like the I keep hearing this the license Zelensky said in the Oval Office give us the license Don't we just have a Euler for those guys? They just click okay? They're good to go To the data for those systems, that's GPS stuff that only the United States can approve. So even if it's a British system or a French system

that's using American stuff to go in deep in Ukraine, they can't do it without American data. So they control that. They essentially remove a fundamental offensive capability that the Ukrainians have. Yes, yes, no data for you. It's not going to work. How about Russia?

What's their response? How do you think Russia is reacting tonight? I think they're probably guarded. I've not seen any statements within the hour, but they have been open minded about Trump's willingness to negotiate a peace deal and

bring this war to an end. And they're also, of course, conducting bilateral negotiations with the United States on diplomatic relations and so on. So I'm sure they are waiting with some cautious optimism that this might actually bring the Ukrainians to the table under pressure to negotiate an end to the war that's sooner rather than later with watered down expectations Ukrainians are gonna have to water down their their ideas of how this war ends and you know, obviously

European Union can't do it quick enough that 150 billion They want to free up isn't certainly not enough for short term We didn't get this on the last show, but it popped up and it kind of popped up and went away. But as it turns out, President Zelensky is really in no position to negotiate mineral licenses at all with the United States, because he already promised preferential treatment to the United Kingdom three days before President Trump was inaugurated.

This is retired US Army Lieutenant Colonel Tony Schaeffer. Well, first off, they've got to change the fact that on the 17th of January, the British signed an agreement with Ukraine that have exclusive rights to those deals. Kyrgyzstan, this is a battle of dueling narratives. You can go check it out. This is on the British UK website. It talks about this 100-year Ukraine and UK signed a 100-year deal over security guarantees and economic development. So what happened is that I believe President

Trump and his team found out that they were being played. So this has become a set of dueling So, I have this treaty, the one he says that deal that we provide security guarantees to a economic development deal that Kirstalmer has already signed them up to do. So I have this treaty, the one he says is right on the website, which it is, and just a couple highlights. This is for a hundred years. The treaty will bolster military collaboration on maritime security through a new framework to strengthen Baltic Sea, Black Sea and Azov Sea security and deter ongoing Russian aggression. We'll bring together experts to advance scientific and technology partnerships, blah, blah. The new UK-built Grain Verification Scheme will also be launched to track stolen grain from occupied Ukrainian territories. And then it has here, it also cements the UK as a preferred partner for Ukraine's energy sector, critical mineral strategy,

and green steel production. When I read that, I think he doesn't have a position, or maybe that's what President Trump meant by you don't have the cards They can't even negotiate a minerals agreement with us. They've already given those the preferential treatment to the UK And I think that explains Kramer Starmers Kramer We just call him Kramer from now on I like Kramer Starmers speech that we played two shows ago where he you out and said we're going to do boots on the ground, we're going to give him planes. Yes, he signed a deal. Yeah, he went on and on and on about it and it seemed like he was just full of it. But with this in mind, which nobody seems to have pointed out until now, yeah, they're full of it. And I think it also explains why Trump, in fact, I have two clips, I have three, but

I have two clips on, this is the piece and no more intel clip. This is when, you know, I think once we find this stuff out, this is what happens. The US has paused intelligence sharing with Ukraine, a move that will limit Ukraine's ability to target Russian forces. It follows Monday's pause on military aid. Russia, meanwhile, said future talks with the US would include discussions on Iran's nuclear program. And today's international correspondent, Malcolm Hudson, has the story for us.

CIA Director John Ratcliffe on Wednesday said the U.S. has halted intelligence sharing with Ukraine. The move could seriously hamper the Ukrainian military's ability to target Russian forces. U.S. National Security Adviser Mike Waltz told reporters Wednesday morning. We have taken a step back and are pausing and reviewing all aspects of this relationship. Since the start of the war in 2022, the US has provided Ukraine with significant intelligence, including critical information its military needs for targeting purposes.

Walz also said the US was actively engaged in talks with Ukraine on a minerals deal and a potential peace deal with Russia. I think we're going to see movement in very short order. Waltz, in an interview with Fox and Friends, said President Trump will consider restoring military aid to Ukraine if peace talks are arranged and confidence building measures are taken. Trump halted the aid on Monday. On Tuesday night, Trump said he had received a letter from Ukrainian President Zelensky that expressed willingness to come to the negotiating table. Walt said officials were in discussions over a date, location and

negotiating team that would lead to an end to the war and are already talking about confidence building measures to then take to the Russians. So the president mentioned that in his speech that you know it got this letter from Zelensky, a courier pigeon dropped it off and then he's willing to come to the negotiating table. Is that with Russia or is that with just us? It was unclear to me. Well this is hard to say because a bunch of reports came out this morning contradicting all that saying you know he still doesn't want to meet with us or doesn't want to do any. And I think a lot of it has to do with this minerals deal, which was the screw job.

Yeah. And, uh, and I think we're aware of it. And I think that's why we, you know, you guys don't want to do that. You want to do this deal. You already, you tried to trick us. Uh, you're not getting any more Intel and now good luck targeting anything cause you can't. And we're revoking your license. I guess all their work was, if it wasn't for us, they wouldn't be able to hit the side of a barn, I guess. We are handing an olive branch to them because we are allowing Neil Young and the Chrome Hearts to play a free concert in Ukraine.

Oh, that sounds perfect. The Kremlin on Wednesday said that future talks between Russia and the United States would include discussion on Iran's nuclear program. A subject spokesman, Dmitry Peskov said had been touched upon in an initial round of US Russia talks last month. Russia's position is that the issue of Iran's nuclear dossier needs to be solved only through political and diplomatic means. In our view, there is potential for it.

Trump last month restored his maximum pressure campaign on Iran, which includes efforts to drive its oil exports down to zero in order to stop Tehran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. Iran denies any such intention. Russia has deepened its ties with the Islamic Republic since the start of the Ukraine war and signed a strategic cooperation treaty with Iran in January. So what do you think? I mean, it seems the Europeans, they need the Russian bear. They need the enemy to for, it's not about Russia. It's about them. They want to complete the European project.

I mean, can they find any other enemy besides adding us to the list? Maybe. Well, they're definitely irked with us. Because they will not give up on this. I just don't see how they can do it. They want to print money, they want to build their own stuff. They want to have their own army, they want to do everything that the Third Reich tried to do. And it's one thing to get Ukrainian young men and women to fight the Russians because there's some ideological history there. But good luck getting the British kids to do it.

Like, no, I'm not going to do that. You'll have to conscript them just like Zelensky did, you know, rousing them from the street. Yeah. I don't see it. I don't either. It's not going to be pleasant. They just think they can do it. These guys, they're not elected, they're not responsible, they're living in their own world.

Vandaline is the best example of this. She thinks she, you know, is, she really does think she's the queen. Yes. And these edicts and all the rest of it is just, it's just, it's a disaster. And there's nothing we can do about it. I mean, well, well, you know, we don't want to, you know, I get arguments with people by, well, we should be NATO, NATO, NATO. With who?

With who? With who would you get an argument? Oh, different people. But it's like the people, the pro-NATO people, and it's like NATO is long past its prime. It's supposed to be a defensive operation when it doesn't seem to be. And every time people bring that up in the conversation, well, it's the defensives for the defense.

Well, then you tell, explain Libya to me. Libya was a NATO operation. There was no defense involved. Libya wasn't attacking anybody. No. They just decided to get Gaddafi out of the way. Well, he wanted that gold Dinar. Yeah, that was a bit of a problem. Yes, that was an issue. What kind of bubbles up, which is not, of course, not being explained to the American people, is we did all this. We set all this up. We have been the bad actor. And I'm glad that... Yeah, we set up the Maidan and the revolution in Ukraine. And eventually we didn't put in this Zelensky character.

He got in some other way, some back door. But we basically set the stage for him, as it were, stage. And you know, Lindsey Graham was a part of that. And of course, McCain, Victoria Nuland, Brennan, all of these ghouls were all over there doing that. Have you seen the thing recently with Flynn accusing Victoria Nuland being behind the assassination attempt on Trump?

Yeah, I didn't even clip it. I've kind of lost my trust in General Flynn. I've seen too much on the money train for other things and I'm pretty sure he's launched some of those odd rumors about, you know, the grid's going down, there won't be an election. Yeah, I think you might be right. I'm very cautious with the General. I want to like him. The grid's going going to EMP. Yeah, I'm very cautious with him. I'm not a fan at this moment. No, but I thought that was amusing.

Yeah. I do have a super cut. Well, before you play that, let's play at least this other thing. This is just a short version of what we just played. This is the NPR's take on the Intel cutoff. This is called Ukraine War Intel Cutoff. The administration has hit the pause button on sharing intelligence with Ukraine.

NPR's Tom Bowman reports Kyiv's relied heavily on Washington for Intel since Russia's invasion of Ukraine more than three years ago. From the start of the war, the U.S. has provided Ukraine with key information about Russian troop locations, key targets that Ukraine can strike, especially targets deep inside Russia. I was told early in the war, the U.S. had more information on Kremlin orders to its ground forces than even Russian low-level commanders. The U.S. would use its formidable intelligence infrastructure, you know, satellites and aircraft,

to not only pick out targets but intercept communications from Russian forces. I mean this really was a proxy war. I mean it was it was the globalist proxy war It was our State Department. It was you know all the way up to the the Biden administration the Obama administration It was a proxy war. It was an ongoing proxy war against Russia. And then the Europeans just as far as I can see, they went, Oh, it's a good idea. We can get more power. This probably was the mistake. Yeah. Yeah. We gave the Europeans confidence. Yeah, do this. Here's a supercut of some Democrats, including Brennan. It's all MSNBC, CNN, talking about how

Trump is bullying Zelensky and of course he's doing it on behalf of Putin and as you know, President Trump is Putin's puppet. Donald Trump and JD Vance and Putin believe that they're going to intimidate and bully and threaten President Zelensky to join the club of corrupt and unprincipled leaders. They will literally need to wait until hell freezes over twice. Twice? Because this is a man who is committed to the survival of his country. The propaganda is what's coming out of JD Vance's mouth and it's Russian propaganda.

I saw the meeting as a despicable display of bling by the president. It was vice president Vance particularly who was on the offense who was berating President Zelensky. It is absolutely shameful what is happening right now. The White House has become an arm of the Kremlin. I have never felt such shame about American policy before. I don't know how our allies trust us after this. Putin and his cronies are probably popping champagne bottles right now.

We have someone that is occupying the White House. And as far as I'm concerned, he is an enemy to the United States. Oh, yes, yes. What you say, you are yourself, people. This is... That was Jasmine Crockett there at the end. Yeah, who wants to be president? I guess we were kind of right though about the blue suit guy. You probably saw the messages.

The blue suit guy who President Trump went to twice and said, you had a second question. Yeah, how come? How come you're not wearing proper clothes in the in the Oval Office? You Ukraine boy? That is Brian Glenn of RSBN, Right Side Broadcasting Network. They are the Trump streaming system and she is Marjorie Taylor Greene's boyfriend. Gee. So that kind of makes sense. He might have been a little bit in on the gambit. You think?

Yeah, might have been in on the gambit. You think? Yeah, it might have been in on the gambit there. Yeah. So, the giveaway of course in that was Trump almost rolling his eyes and saying, didn't you have another question? Yeah, can you get to the one we talked about? The one that we rehearsed? Remember the table read? Come on man, get with the program. Remember the table read? Come on, man. Get with the program. Rubio, though, holding up very well. Have you noticed his ears now? Christina finally saw it. Yeah, their ears are big. He's got huge ears. He could fly off if he wanted to. Here's a little interlude between him and George Stephanopoulos over at the ABCs. Well, even some of your Republican allies are puzzled by the steps that President Trump has taken to placate Vladimir Putin.

I want to bring up a post that Lisa Murkowski... Well, which one? What steps has the president taken to placate? Well, let me show you what Lisa Murkowski said. Are we arming the Russians? Are we providing economic assistance to the Russians? Have we given the Russians $180 million? Please let me ask you the question. What are we doing to play games? This is Lisa Murkowski, and here's what she says.

This week started with administration officials refusing to acknowledge that Russia started the war in Ukraine. It ends with a tense and shocking conversation in the Oval Office and whispers from the White House that they may try to end all US support for Ukraine. I know foreign policy is not for the faint of heart, but right now I am sick to my stomach as the administration Appears to be walking away from our allies and embracing Putin A threat to democracy and US values around the world. Those are not my words. That's Senator Lisa Murkowski. What's your response?

Well, you know, yeah, we're a free country people have a right to these opinions I would just say to you what have we done to placate the Russians? The only thing we've done is say are you guys willing to talk about peace? I say the same point. We're not giving them, we haven't given them... You voted with North Korea and Russia and... We haven't given them an Oval Office... You voted with North Korea and Russia and Belarus and the United Nations and against our Western allies.

No, let me tell you, alright, so you know what the United Nations resolution was? I'll tell you if you want to hear what it was. It basically said this has been a horrible war, it's time for it to end, the job of the UN is to bring about peace in the world. I thought that's what the UN was created to do, to stop wars and to prevent them. And that's what the resolution did. Was it antagonistic towards the Russians? No. Back to the point. But it also didn't praise the Russians. All it said is, bad war needs to end, let's bring the two sides together.

Go Marco! Yeah. sides together. Go Marco. There was a couple of pieces I saw saying, oh, Rubio was humiliated by the president at the speech. And it wasn't true. I thought he was complimented. He gave him the old, he did the, well, it doesn't go right. We know who to blame. which was interpreted as criticizing Rubio. But Rubio, who's, you know, I think Vance is pretty good at defending the president, but Rubio is really good because he's faster, he's a little more angry. Vance is never really angry. He's always kind of jocular. He's got a smile on his face and he just thinks he's smarter than you are.

And so he goes in that direction as an overeducated type. Rubio is the pissed off Cuban and he goes after him and he's nasty. I like him. I think Rubio is vying for presidency. Oh, he wants to run, sure. Yeah. And that's a logical step. Go from secretary of state, but if nothing else he's going to be, if these, if he doesn't blow up, he's going to go down in history. I think,

or hope, uh, as one of the better secretaries of states, it's a famous job for people who do well. He would also be really good as the new Pope. I think I'm gonna put him on the list. How was the pope? He caught me off guard. Wait, what's the latest update on the pope? He's not well. No. But he's not dead. No, he's thanking supporters for prayers and in a recorded evening rosary. It's not good. It's not good. It's not good. You're old. Yeah, 88 doesn't seem old, but if you're not well, that's not great. No, if you got double pneumonia and you have missing lung anyway from a childhood incident.

Oh, I didn't know that. He already has... Yeah, he had part of his lung taken out. So he's basically infirm in that regard. I'm working on my predictions should the unfortunate thing happen. I'm getting on my predictions should the unfortunate thing happen. I, I, I'm getting close to that. Well, since you brought it up, Conclave won nothing. Nothing. No, it's nothing. The Academy Wars were boring.

And hold on a second. I have to say I made a very big mistake. My wife, Tina is still mad at me that I made her watch the whole thing. And I kept saying, no, no, it'll get good in a minute. The Academy Awards? Yes. She says, it's always boring. You get the supporting actors first, then blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, two hours of nothing.

And then you get the best movie and best actors. And she was right. And Steven, no, I was saying saying Conan he didn't do any fun skits or anything didn't do any you know yeah it just wasn't great bring back Billy Crystal only in presenting mode that was fun that's gone I thought Culkin was funny well he also he also was like hey baby let's make more babies. That was cool. That was very, very good.

And that was good for the public. And it was good for the whole, I guess, the feeling of having more babies. Let's get more babies. Yes. But the rest of it was terrible. And especially when Adrian Brody came out and made him stop the band. They were trying to play him off.

And he had the lectures about the othering and other crap about it. How about you know what he was talking about? Well, there wasn't a lot of trans talk, which I think probably says, shh, it's not too trans though. And only Darryl Hannah came out and did a Slava Ukraine. Way to go, Darryl Hannah. 19.6 million viewers though. It's up slightly from last year.

I think there were like 35 million or 75. So there was some huge number for the Trump speech. This was on every network. Oh, that must've been big. Yeah, it must've been big. But yeah, I found that the, I didn't watch the Trump speech. This was on every network. Oh, that must have been big. Yeah, it must have been big. But yeah, I found that the, I didn't watch the whole, I tried to, I recorded it to speed watch it. And I couldn't watch, even, I didn't watch the whole thing.

I missed the dead part where everyone's dead. I don't know who, who did the rest. That was a horrible dead segment. You couldn't see it. Was it? Yes, because they had it in, you know, in front of the orchestra pit. It was a small circle and it was like, it went by really quickly. And Gene Hackman got like, ah, he did two movies. Bye, Gene. It was nearly, yes. Oh, it was very, well, they brought out Morgan Freeman, you know, to start it off like he was a good guy. I loved him. That was nice.

And to start it off like he was a good guy, I loved him, that was nice. But then I expected a whole Gene Hackman package. No, none of that. None of it. And I'm a sucker for the dead segment. I like the dead segment. It was not a good dead segment. Most people like the dead segment. They've been botching it recently.

So you don't know who, sometimes you, I remember a a couple years ago, you couldn't see who the names were. No, same. Same this year. It was hard to see. It was way in the distance. You had a wide shot of the whole stage. So people in the auditorium maybe had a decent view, but no, it was not good. They never went back to the gag of, what's his face with the dour look?

The opening gag. The Lithgow to begin with. dour look. The opening gag. Oh, Lithgow to begin with. Yeah, that was a good gag. So there's no callbacks to that? No, zero callbacks. They should have done that at least three times. No, it was poorly done. I forgot to look who directed it.

I was so disgusted. Tina was mad. Whoever, the whole thing. Okay, well, now I'm glad. I'm not going to go back and even check it out. No, do not, do not. I was gonna pull maybe a clip from Brody, but I don't want you to do that.

And it started off kinda nice. I have to say I like, what's her face, the wicked girl. The nose ring woman? No, no, who's gonna? The bald nose ring woman? And you know, she's gonna play Jesus in Jesus Christ Superstar. No, I love it.

That's no good. Wow, talking about sacrileg Jesus in Jesus Christ Superstar. No I love it. Wow, talking about sacrilegious. That's no good. Let's see how long that goes. That's no good. Kind of pack them in for having a nose ring black bald woman play Jesus. That's hilarious. Now what's her name?

The other girl. Ariana Grande? Yeah, she was good. Yeah, she's a cutie. She can sing. She can sing. But she's on the O-wagon, man. She needs a cheeseburger. That's she's she's she can sing she can sing she's got but she's on the old wagon, man She's like she needs a cheese burger says yeah, she's a cheese burger already

It's a thin waifi type woman. Why is she why would she do that? She was more fun when she was licking doughnuts and putting them back on the tray, but no no Something happened during the production of Wicked and it turned everyone strange. And I don't think it got any awards except for set, set design maybe. Yeah, it didn't win anything. I did watch the lighthearted comedy with Kiernan Culkin. Yeah, what's it called? A Real Pain.

A Real Pain. Yeah, how is it? A cute movie. I mean it's an actor's movie. He's kind of doing his thing very similar to what he did with Succession. He's a good actor. He deserves that award. Better than all the others, I'm sure. But we watched it.

It was like, yeah, it was all right. It was, you know, it's a, it's not an action movie. There's no explosion. And it plays, it plays out in Poland, which is why Comic Street Blogger wanted it to win all these awards. Man, Poland is kind of dour. I have never been to Poland, but it's all post, you know, Soviet Russia kind of architecture and, and then went through the concentration camp. So, yeah, it was all right. I do have three fun clips from one of the contenders to replace Justin Trudeau. That is, Christian Freeland, who we remember was behind the, uh, disrupting the trucker

convoy, honk, honk. Yeah. Was behind, uh, seizing people's money during this protest. And she is running as a liberal candidate for prime minister and she's off the rails. A few weeks ago in Saskatoon, I met a four year old girl named Ari. She asked me, can you stop Trump from invading Canada?

So the four year olds apparently are upset and afraid in Canada that Trump is going to invade Canada. Ari is a smart girl, and she's asking the right question. She's asking the right question. What is this Miss Freeland? Geez. I'm running to be leader of the Liberal Party and the next Prime Minister of Canada. Hold on, stop it a second. Four-year-old. Does anyone, does she have kids? This woman,

she's making this up. Four year olds don't, this is not now. Unless the parents said, here's the question, I'll write it out. Even then to get a four year old to enunciate is like pulling teeth. Yes. No, it's clearly a lie, but for some reason she feels necessary to propagandize. A six year old maybe or an eight-old, I could almost believe it. But a four-year-old is like, you know, I got a baby, a toddler. She's bitching and moaning about Trump. Are you telling me that politicians are liars?

Gambling, perhaps? Because Trump is posing the gravest challenge our country has faced. Gravest challenge our country has ever faced. Canada, Canada, Canada, we love you Canada. This is no good. Since the second world war. Since the second world war. He's threatening us with economic warfare. That's not new. Last time he threatened to rip up NAFTA and he imposed tariffs on our steel and aluminum. He did actually. I fought back and I won. Did she win?

Did she win when she fought back? She won what? I don't know, she won something. I don't know, she won. This time Trump's threats are even worse. Worse? She wants to make us the 51st state. Trump is unleashed and empowered. As your Prime Minister, I will be too.

I like that. Unleashed and empowered. I like that. I have the experience, the plan, and the guts to stand up to Trump. To tell him that Canada is not for sale, and if he hits us, we'll hit him back. We need a leader who understands the seriousness of the challenge and is ready to meet it. A leader who can say to Ari and to everyone across our great country, I will fight for you. I will fight for Canada, and together we will win. Well, if she keeps this up, they won't be the 51st state, they'll be the 52nd after we get Greenland. Here she is more banter on the 51st state.

We need to recognize President Trump has said dozens of times he wants us to be the 51st state. I don't think any of us wants to be the leader who was asleep at the wheel and didn't get Canada defended, did not work with our democratic allies to protect our borders. They want to work with us. It's time for us to step up at home, to urgently reach out to them and build a new world order where democracy and Canadian sovereignty is protected. Ah, she wants a new world order. Well, that's just perfect.

And defend your borders because there's Americans ready to invade you, Canada. For the first time since the Second World War, rather than guaranteeing the rules-based order, the US is turning predator. And so what Canada needs to do is work closely with our democratic allies, our military allies. I've been foreign minister, I know how to do that.

That's why I would start with our Nordic partners, specifically Denmark, which is also being threatened, and our European NATO allies. I would be sure that France and Britain were there who possess nuclear weapons. And I would be working urgently with those partners to build a closer security relationship that guarantees our security in a time when the United States can be a threat.

And I would also crucially reach out to our Asian Democratic partners, Japan, South Korea, Australia, they need to be part of the conversation too. We need to be ready for a world where the US is not the leader of the free world anymore. Canada can be and must be a leader in building this new order. Our allies are looking to us and if we do this, we'll make ourselves safer as well. So I want to hear from our Canadian producer. Canada Uber Allness. Is anyone buying this? Are you guys really buying this? That the whole world is now... This is Paulie Esther or Paulie Avere or whatever his name is. Paulie Avere, to win. Polyvair, Polyvair, Polyvair. He's just going to win.

I would hope so. The apple-chewer. But this is sad. I mean, these politicians are making us out to be the bad guy. Because we want peace and we want to equalize some stuff. I've looked at some of the tariffs of some Canadian podcasts and these guys are going, hey we have a thousand percent tariff on American milk. The tariffs on our dairy is unbelievable up there.

And eggs and all kinds of stuff. Eggs are up, yeah. Like hundreds of percent. Well we don't have any eggs. No eggs for you. So it's like, what is going on? It's more than just anti-Trump. It's, you know, they're trying to build coalitions. I don't think she can build anything, but they're trying to, trying

to build coalitions of some sort. She's just silly. Yeah. Well, I wonder if Canada is an interesting place. It's multiple communities. I wonder if the French Canadians are into this. Does she speak French? Christia?

They all have to speak French if you're a politician in Canada. I have one quick... That's kind of that weird flat French. I have one quick Trudeau clip just to wrap it up. So today the United States launched a trade war against Canada. Trade war. Their closest partner and ally, their closest friend. At the same time, they're talking about working positively with Russia, appeasing Vladimir Putin, a lying, murderous dictator. Lying, murderous dictator!

Make that make sense. Canadians are reasonable, and we are polite. But we will not back down from a fight. Not when our country and the well-being of everyone in it is at stake. That's war talk! War talk? Oh, it's tiring. Four more years. Four more years. Four more years.

At least twice a week we're going to get some action. I have two tariff clips, which I think are worthwhile. I have one. I have the update clip on NPR. Give us the update. What is it called? Tariff update. Ah, there we go. Give us the update. What is it called? Tariff update. Oh, there we go. US automakers are breathing a sigh of relief after President Trump said he would give them a tariffs reprieve.

Wall Street investors are apparently relieved as well. The Dow is up 485 points or more than 1% at 43,006. The S&P and the NASDAQ are also closing up, 1% to nearly 1.5%. And Piers Marie Aspin has more. President Trump is giving U.S. car companies one more month without his new tariffs. He's imposed 25% taxes on goods imported from Mexico and Canada, but he told the big three automakers that they will be exempt until April 2nd. The U.S. auto industry has been vocally opposed to Trump's tariffs.

Car companies warn that they will create major disruptions to their North American supply chains and analysts say the end result will be much higher prices for consumers. Shares of Ford, GM and other car companies rose after plunging earlier this week. However, the reprieve is still only temporary. According to the White House, Trump also warned automakers that they would need to start moving production to the United States. What's your analysis on this? Well, this is getting a little tiresome where, you know, I'm going to do the

tariffs, I'll put it off a week. Oh, I'll put it off a month. I'll put, you know, he's never going to do the tariffs. It's just to get these guys to move toward getting some plants built here. And I think that's going to happen. There's been some movement in that direction. Honda is going to open a big plant, I understand, in Indiana, according to his speech. And I think they know what the real problem is.

You can't really pull it off. You can't do the tariffs because the parts are made here and they know what the real problem is. You can't really pull it off. You can't do the tariffs because the parts are made here and they go across the border and then they come back and then as a finished thing and then it goes back and forth and back and forth and back and forth. Then it goes to Canada back and forth and then to Mexico back and forth and then a car comes out. I mean, it's a nightmare, the whole thing, because of the agreement that was made so Canada and Mexico could do all this trading without worrying about it.

And so they've set up shop, these car makers have set up shop and it's borderline nuts. I don't know what, and you know, I think what he's trying to do is get this Consolidated I mean used to be for example when the old Rouge plant was The Ford plant the Rouge their giant plant where they had you know raw Minerals are raw materials coming in one end a steel mill steel mill made the steel the parts were all made You know just this giant facility and it didn't go all over the place to for a car to come out the other end. Do you think that the idea and maybe this is just testing the markets? Okay, if I do this, if I say this, then the markets go down. Isn't maybe ultimately oil has gone down, I think it's 2% so there's some movement there to potentially lower energy costs. Could it be all a big play to play the

market so that interest rates start to come down or we might get a cut? Is that something that could be part of this plan? Maybe, but I don't see a cut in any time in the near future. I don't think you're going to get a cut of interest rates. You know, Trump made a statement that the interest rates have come down a little bit, but not from the Federal Reserve. Here's CBS on tariffs, which is decent. In public, presidential tough talk is fueling the trade war. Whatever they tariff us, other countries, we will tariff them. Even though you're a very smart guy, this is a very dumb thing to do.

In private, administration officials are in constant contact with Canadian and Mexican counterparts, with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick leading negotiations. Just hours after Canada retaliated with tariffs on US exports, he was working the phones calling Canadian officials. Sources familiar with Lutnick's call with the Premier of Ontario Doug Ford describe it as aggressive and tough. Lutnick told Ford to stand down. Not only did Ford refuse, he said if anything his province would go harder. The President Trump, don't force our hand. You underestimate Canadians, you're making a massive mistake. Yesterday, President Trump had a call with the big

three US automakers, Ford, Stellantis, and GM, who have been pressuring him for a carve-out for vehicles built in Canada and Mexico. This morning, Lutnick said Trump was considering walking back tariffs on some sectors. By this afternoon, the White House announced a one-month exemption for cars and trucks. Still, the White House press secretary says Trump is all in on his tariffs plan, despite the risk of rising prices. Why should Americans be okay with that when so many are already struggling to pay the bills?

The American people elected this president to have monumental reform and change, including rebuilding our manufacturing base in this country, standing up to foreign nations who have been ripping off our country for decades. And that requires a little bit of disruption. Hmm. Maybe he's just using it as a trigger to get them to commit to building a plant. It's like, I'll do it. Watch, I'll do it. Well, that may have just happened with the Mexican woman. That's what I'm thinking.

Shine bomb, whatever her name is. We'll see. I mean, it's becoming kind of comical, it seems to me. Ronald Reagan had a very negative stance on tariffs, which I didn't realize. Did you know that? I don't remember if I know it or not. Here's a minute-long speech from President Ronald Reagan about tariffs. You see, at first, when someone says, let's impose tariffs on foreign imports, it looks

like they're doing the patriotic thing by protecting American products and jobs. And sometimes for a short while it works, but only for a short time. What eventually occurs is, first, homegrown industries start relying on government protection in the form of high tariffs. They stop competing and stop making the innovative management and technological changes they need to succeed in world markets. And then, while all this is going on, something even worse occurs. High tariffs inevitably lead to retaliation by foreign

countries and the triggering of fierce trade wars. The result is more and more tariffs, higher and higher trade barriers, and less and less competition. So soon, because of the prices made artificially high by tariffs that subsidize inefficiency and poor management, people stop buying. Then the worst happens. Markets shrink and collapse, businesses and industries shut down, and millions of people lose their jobs. The memory of all this occurring back in the 30s made me determined when I came to Washington to spare the American people the protectionist legislation that destroys prosperity. Oh, wow. Yeah, Jefferson was one of the first guys who experimented with tariffs and it sunk the economy.

Wait, I thought it was the other guy, the president who got assassinated that Trump always talks about. McKinley? McKinley, yeah. He was the terrorist guy. No, before McKinley, Jefferson had this guy. Oh, Jefferson. I'm sorry.

Yeah, Jefferson was a little bit before McKinley. Yes. Yeah, a little bit. Just a little bit. Yeah, Jefferson was a little bit before McKinley. Yeah, a little bit. Just a little bit. Yeah. He got him into trouble and other people have done well with it. It's just, it depends. I think it's a time and place. I think it could be, I don't know. We'll find out.

Well, I agree with you. It's a little tiresome. Like, when is this going to pay off? Well, he's definitely trying to get people to start making stuff here. Yeah. Well, we know we have the boot company. We got a boot company out of it. Well, maybe Honda will build that plant. Oh, I think they'll build that. And Apple will probably...

And the TMS Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, TSMC, is going to drop a lot of money into something. But I think there's a different reason for that. I think they're afraid that, you know, because there's a little wax. Yeah, the Chinese take over their plant in, because the Chinese can't build ships at all. It's a hedge for them. They can't design them or build them. And so they love to take...

The reason they would grab Taiwan is so they can grab that factory. But by the time it happens, they could have been moved out to a safe place. That guy who runs TSMC, who's pretty much similar to Jensen over at Nvidia, a good innovative Taiwanese character who tried, he's been trying to get a factory built here, but he finds American workers and there's some issues with they don't like to work or something. He's got some problems with American workers.

Yeah, well, that wouldn't surprise me. We've had it too good. We need some pain. And the president has promised us pain, or a little disruption, perhaps. We're getting it, that's for sure. Meanwhile, we're working on stuff like this. I got a few clips on this.

This is the woolly, you've seen the woolly mouse? Yeah, the woolly mammoth. This is bull crap by the way. I'm totally convinced this is a scam. Oh, okay. Good, good, good. But I like the story. This is the woolly mammoth.

Mouse. Mouse. Scientists have created a mouse that looks a lot like a much bigger extinct animal, the woolly mammoth. Researchers say their woolly mouse is an important step towards achieving their ultimate goal, bringing a woolly mammoth-like animal back from extinction. NPR science correspondent Rob Stein has more. Rob Stein Woolly mammoths were big shaggy elephants that roamed the tundra until going extinct thousands of years ago.

A Texas biotech company called Colossal Biosciences wants to bring the mammoth back by genetically engineering modern day elephants to have key traits from the mammoth, like their long, thick, golden coat. And they say they're a lot closer now with their mini woolly mammoth mice. For us, it's an incredibly big deal. And Shapiro is Colossal's chief science officer. This is really validation that what we have in mind for our longer-term de-extinction projects is really going to work.

To make these woolly mice, Shapiro and her colleagues started by comparing ancient genetic material from mammoths with genomes from modern-day African and Asian elephants to pinpoint genes responsible for making the mammoth distinctive. And then we look in the mouse for those same genes and instances where those genes have been involved with making a woolly coat or longer hair or changing the color of the hair. So they could use the latest gene editing techniques to breed mice that mimic mammoth characteristics and it appears to have worked. We ended up with some absolutely adorable mice that have longer woolly golden colored

coats. As well as fat metabolisms like the mammoths had to survive in the frigid Arctic. Now, did they actually use some woolly mammoth DNA? You know, they never make any of this clear, and I'm wondering about these little woolly mice, which are cute. They look like gerbils. Yeah, they kind of do, and they got their hairs a little disheveled. I still think this is a crock, the whole thing, but I like the story.

Why? Why do you like the story? I like the story because the way it ends, so we have to go through it. Okay. But I'm skeptical. I'm very skeptical of doing anything because this is all, you know, Jurassic Park,

the movie came out. Ah, there it is. it was before the movie. I thought the timing could be better. Yeah. But here we go. This is exciting to us because it confirms that the genes and gene families that we identified using our comparative genomics approach

really do cause an animal to have a woolly coat and a golden coat and longer hairs and This is the way that we're going to create mammoths for the future by someday Editing the genes of the mammoth's closest living relatives Asian elephants so that they have the traits that made the mammoth Mammoths and then hopefully Releasing herds of these animals into the Arctic. Well, you better up the CO2 content in the air because I don't think that their lungs won't handle the low CO2 amounts we have. The dinosaurs couldn't live today. We don't have enough carbon dioxide.

I don't know what they would need to live up there, but I don't think I, I Indian elephant, which is the ones with the smaller ears, uh, would appreciate being turned into a really hairy elephants and then shipped in our, here you go boys. That is your fun. That's the polar bear. So, but the, the, the way this ends is actually kind of interesting because there's a little gotcha in here.

Now, other researchers say the woolly mice are exciting. You know I'm pretty skeptical about this, but that mouse is pretty adorable. And for people like me who want to understand the genetic basis of traits, this is particularly impressive. Vincent Lynch is a professor of biology at the University of Buffalo, but Lynch and others caution a mouse is not an elephant. So who knows if they could do the same thing with that species, and even if they could, is that such a great idea?

Critics say the money would be better spent saving living species on the brink of extinction. And who knows what unintended consequences could result? Carl Flessa is a professor of geosciences at the University of Arizona. I don't know what the downside of having a bunch of hairy Asian elephants stomping around in the tundra might be. They don't know what would happen. They can't really assure me that, oh, everything will be just fine, everything will be just like it was back in the Pleistocene.

I'm not ready to play God like that. Colossal scientists say introducing mammoth-like creatures me that, oh, everything will be just fine, everything will be just like it was back in the Pleistocene. I'm not ready to play God like that. Colossal scientists say introducing mammoth-like creatures back into the tundra could actually repair the environment where the mammoth once roamed. Our intention is to recreate these extinct species that played really important roles in ecosystems that are missing because they've become extinct. Colossal also says the molecular tools the company's creating for the mammoth could be used to save other species from going extinct. The researchers hope to

have Asian elephant embryos engineered with mammoth traits by next year and their first mammoth-like calves in about three years and they're already working on also resurrecting the dodo bird and the Tasmanian tiger. Is that what we waited for for the dodo bird payoff? Here's why. The other one that Chris left out is that there's the passenger pigeon which would be the other one. The dodo bird which was wiped out by modern times. By the Flintstones. They're wiped out in a cartoon. No, they've Dodo bird was into the 1800s, I believe. Really? And they were wiped out because,

and I think this is a good reason to bring them back. They were apparently delicious. The Dodo bird is notoriously delicious. And I think it'd be great to bring the dodo bird back, breed them like chickens. Have dodo bird eggs and dodo bird meat. I think it could be a big deal. It would be a money maker. I'm looking to see when we last had them. First recorded by Dutch sailors in 1598 and in the 19th century,

yes, research was conducted on small quantities. Oh, that was remains. The last widely accepted sighting of a dodo was 1662. That was the last one they ate. The Dutch don't have much of a cuisine. The Dutch, they ate the damn things. Hey, hey, Jaap, what is this? It's a nice bird, man. Nice, nice, nice, nice bird. Dodo, he ate like a dodo. That was my Dutch eating a dodo bird. Very good, very good. Very good. Dimensionality to the show. Yes. Yes.

I'm glad to provide. Okay. Well, 16C, whatever the case was, we did eat them and there was a lot of reports about their deliciousness. They don't look delicious. They look kind of odd. They look dorky. They look stupid.

Yeah. Yeah. Well, stupid can be delicious. You never know. A little bit of tech news before we take a break. The founder of Reddit, Alexis Ohanian, confirms he's trying to buy TikTok. He's teaming up with real estate billionaire Frank McCourt to submit a proposal for the app, which faces a ban in the US

if it's not sold by its Chinese owner, ByteDance. The deadline for a deal is next month. So in some of the documents that are coming out from some lawsuits, their worldwide revenue is a paltry $2 billion. That's less than I thought. That's worldwide. That's global revenue. So U.S. revenues, maybe, maybe half a billion.

It seems low. It could be a size a billion. It seems low. It could be as high as a billion. It seems low. Yeah. I think they should buy just for the entertainment value. Well, it's definitely got the highest entertainment value now that you mention it. Ah, ladies and gentlemen, yes, you thought it was never going to happen, but yes, here he is.

It's time for John's TikTok videos. Hold on. Where's my, where's my TikTok video? TikTok. Yeah. Nothing is as good as a TikTok video from John because it really lightens the mood. So here we now we have the lot of black women. There was this thing about black women that you're all gotten to politics and they were going to be embarrassed,

but a lot of black women are showing up on Tik TOK pray all, all walking away from the Democrat party and praising the Republicans. And I have two examples here that are quite, you know, by the way, this is only the black women in your Tik TOK. There's a lot of black women who are very much Democrats on other TikToks. Oh yeah, I agree. I'm just saying. Okay.

These are the TikToks I'm doing for the show. Okay. We have, first of all, we have the, let's try, black women on Dems. I voted for Democrats my whole life. They never did anything they promised. They would come to the black church and sing some Negro spirituals with us and then disappear, peer, peer, peer. Once they got our vote, they never did anything they promised.

I vote for a Republican once in my life and this dude done did everything he promised on steroids. He ain't even been in office two months and everything I voted for I'm getting. It's amazing. Do he sleep? Like this dude, if he sleeps, he wake up on a mission to do what Nikia voted for. He said, uh, Nikia want me to fix that border? I'm on it. Nikia want to make sure them tax dollars is being spent for Americans more than anybody else?

I'm on it. Like this dude wakes up. I feel like with me in mind, you know what I'm saying? I feel like he be thinking about me. It's like being at the casino. You put in that Democrat coin, you put it in and you pull the thing in. Nope, you don't win. You put in another Democrat coin and you pull the thing in.

Nope, you didn't win. You put in that Republican coin. I put in a Republican coin for the first time. I freaking won. Wow. So you know what that tells me? That tells me to never vote for Democrats again in life. Ever. Because you not gonna win with them. I voted for a Republican once. And hit the jackpot, honey. I will continue to do that again and again and again. Yeah. Yeah. You know what I miss?

I miss Aunt Jemima syrup. That was one of the, one of the great tragedies of the DEI initiative. What is he? What? Aunt Jemima syrup? Yeah. Well, they just took a picture off the label. Well, what is it called now then? Uh-huh.

It's called syrup. It's not the same. It's not the label. What is it called now then? Uh-huh. It's called syrup. It's not the same. It's not the same. Okay, you got another, this is another black woman. This is a little shorter. Oh my God, y'all. This is too much. I am watching this address to the joint Congress. Let me tell you guys something. The Democrats you were a Democrat you should be so embarrassed They're acting like little bitty kids like that They all got an attitude. They had to kick out green out cuz he running there shaking the stick Nancy Pelosi slobbering on herself. I came Jeffy sitting over there and did you see Jasmine Crocker when our green got kicked out? She said down like mmm

You should not. They all over there holding up signs, somehow false and E-line and all of this. They are so embarrassing. I wouldn't want to be a Democrat, but you know what this does? It lets me know that I'm on the right side because everything that that man is saying

is good for America. And now you see who does not want America to prosper. You see who does not care about America. Them Democrats sitting over there with attitude. I'm sick of them. My God, they're embarrassing. I couldn't be called a Democrat. No way. They look like old, brittle, demonic demons. They look like gremlins, just bitter bigots, they just look like life sucks. Their life sucks.

They look unhappy. I wouldn't want to be married to none of them, honestly. They look like they are just terrible in a relationship. Like they frown up at everything, you can't be yourself, Can't have no fun. They're bullies. They suck. You know what I just realized? Nowhere on M5M and did you know that, have you ever seen YouTube has YouTube TV has that quad view? Have you found that yet?

Oh yeah, absolutely. When you watch sports, there's lots of quad views involved. So I got Fox news, CNN, MSNBC, and BBC. Yeah, that's good. But you never hear a real Texan. You never hear one of these black ladies. And this is how we talk in America. You never hear that anymore. It's very elitist. Yeah, it's funny because in the olden days when I was a kid, they would always bring a Texan in or a black one or somebody.

When they wanted somebody, especially a southern guy with a drawl talk a lot, they're just real slow. You'd put him on because he sounded stupid. And so you'd ask him, I don't know what the hell's going on around here. But they don't do that so much anymore. I don't know what the hell's going on around here. And, uh, but they don't do that so much anymore. I don't know why. And not you mentioned it. They're elitist. It's the elite messaging system. They're elitist. That's exactly right. That's right. Yeah.

All right. Do you want to torture us some more with this? Two more gems. Now that we're going to, okay, we're switching gears. Okay. I'm going to, I'm going to switch gears and go to the liberal women. Okay. So now we got... Let me guess. Let me guess, they're white? They're white, I'm guessing? Yes, they're white liberal women. And let's see, here's the mask one. This is the new protest. It's a mask for protest.

...defective form of protest you have right now that you can start immediately. Put a mask back on. Stop letting them observe your face and have the side benefit of better health and protecting the rest of us in the world. Put a mask back on. Yeah, okay. She's not liberal. She's deranged.

She's nuts. Yeah, well, the next one is too. This is the do something girl. I need Democrats to do something. I need Democrats to do something. I need Democrats to do something. If you are the party of the people, if you are the party who's representing the rest of us, if you're the party who has our best interest in mind, I need you to do something. I need the Democrats to do something. Please, please, I am begging you. I'm begging you as someone who is having a hard time affording breakfast for her kid. I am begging you as someone who is having a hard time affording breakfast for her kid.

I am begging you as someone whose death feels like it's becoming insurmountable at this rate. I am begging you. We the people, the people out here on the streets, the people here every fucking day are doing the best we can. It is your job to represent us. I need you please to do something, anything. Make a noise, make a protest, do something.

Stop just all the damn words. No one believes you, no one trusts you, no one thinks you're worth anything. Please do something. We're begging you. Oh man. But these, these, all of these women, including the previous two, they're just there for likes and shares and viral stuff. But they're there for me to clip.

There's no reality. Well, it's like a boomer moment. We just sit here and go, oh yeah, oh yeah. Yeah, well, I'm a boomer. So are you, by the way. A boomer adjacent. I am the face of Generation X. Technically, you're on the cusp.

Yes, cusp. If you just stayed in the womb maybe another week, you'd have gone on the other side. I'm Gen X. I had the hair of Gen X and recognize as such. Recognize as such. Yeah, you're one of those guys that tries to look younger than your age.

We need a jingle. This has been the John C. Dvorak boomer moment. No, we don't need that jingle. But I will play this clip just as an adjunct to the first two. This is the Arthur C. Brooks is a guy who writes for the New York Times op-eds. And he's been writing about how unhappy the liberal women are and the liberals in general.

And he's got new data and he was on a podcast and here he is. 10 years ago, you wrote, conservative women are particularly, seem to be particularly blissful. About 40% say they're very happy. That makes them slightly happier than conservative men and significantly happier than liberal women. Yeah. The unhappiest of all are liberal men.

Only about a fifth consider themselves very happy. That was true 10 years ago. Liberal women have overtaken liberal men as the unhappiest group. You find that particularly young women, very interesting new data show that white liberal women under 30 have almost a 6 in 10 chance of having been diagnosed with a mental illness in America today. It's a really big problem and there's lots of speculation on what that has to do with politics, what has to do with race, what has to do with age, etc. But what you find is that this is a group that's really, really struggling and it's

a pity because it's not good for them, it's not good for society and that's what we see. So I don't think that being a political conservative is a panacea for being a happy person, but we see disproportionately these happiness and unhappiness effects in different parts of the population for sure. Well I blame that on soma or you know the modern-day soma is on the diagnosis. He said it right there, oh the diagnosis, unhappy, depressed, and you give them some drugs and they don't get better, they just get more depressed. I don't think these things work. I think it's being handed out like candy. And that's the problem. That's the problem. It's, it's, there's got to be a direct correlation.

And Bobby Kennedy Jr is going to change all that, you know, we'll see, by the way, that was kind of interesting. So, you know, in a, in a nation of headline readers, I think it was Fox News was the first headline that got passed around by everybody. And the headline was, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. measles outbreak is called action for all of us vaccines. And if you really read the article, he says vaccines are an option. And then he goes into great depth on the benefits of vitamins A, C, and D, foods rich in vitamin B12, C and E, balanced diet, but even Fox, like, oh, Bobby's all on the vax train. He's always said, as far as I can recall, that I'm for safe vaccines.

So if they're safe, then you can take them if you want to. But it's like now he's this big traitor. Oh, that's what you get when you get a Democrat in. It's like, no, what were you hearing? I heard him say, you know, I'm not against vaccines. If you want to take a vaccine, take a vaccine. Yeah. Yeah. He's had vaccines himself. I mean, yeah. So it's like, I'm not surprised. I do have some big, big pharma news.

I do want to mention something that you mentioned, cause I don't have the clip and it irks me now that I thought, think about it, cause I had the clip slide by and I didn't make it. There's a woman who claims he was on she claims that that person in Texas who the kid who died in Texas of the measles. No, I played the clip on the last show. You did? Yeah. Oh, oh no, I know what you saw. There's no evidence, just some woman on TikTok saying that the kid had pneumonia and they gave the kid an MMR vaccine in the hospital. Right. Yeah. But we knew this with COVID, they would, you know,

somebody get into a car wreck and they test them for COVID and they say they died in COVID. Yes. And this was well documented. This was going on. I don't see any reason it wouldn't continue. No, I know. But there's just some chick with a flag outfit. It was gossip. It was gossip. It was gossip. Yes, it was gossip. I thought it was interesting. Not gossip is the price war now in your Ozempic alternatives. There's a lot going on in the market.

A lot of interesting things happening now with Deathbound Direct. Drug maker Eli Lilly is expanding its business of selling prescription medicines directly to consumers. The company is offering more vials of its obesity drug ZepBound to patients at a discount, but only if they skip their insurance. NPR's Sidney Lupkin has more. Every month, roughly 100,000 people buy ZepBound directly from Eli Lilly through its website. It's about the size of a small city. That was David Ricks, Eli Lilly's CEO. Last summer, Lilly started selling vials of the lower doses of ZepBound online. Patients either need a prescription from their doctor or can get one online through a Lilly

partner. Now the company is adding higher doses of ZepBound. It's a Lilly partner. Now the company is adding higher doses of StepBound. It's a cultural phenomena. It's used by millions of people in the US and millions more would like to use it. So I think it's incumbent on us not just to invent great new medicines but get them to patients. The drug usually comes in an auto injector pen like an EpiPen but the Lilly offer is for vials that patients then use with an old-fashioned syringe to inject themselves.

Oh, yummy. It's a cheaper option, a few hundred dollars a month compared to more than a thousand dollars a month. The other catch is that to get the discounted vials, patients cannot use their health insurance. Novo Nordisk, which makes blockbuster Wigovia, announced today that it too will sell its obesity drug at a discount for people not using insurance. This is a big deal because what it shows, first of all, is that we're crazy. We're crazy.

All kinds of side effects that we don't care as long as I'm not fat. I want to eat my Snickers and not be fat. But really, it shows that they're making more money by not using insurance because insurance doesn't pay it all out. Insurance like, well, yeah, it was a thousand dollars, but we're only going to pay Eli Lilly, we're only going to pay you 250. So they charge people 300 for Lilly Direct. This insurance scam has got to stop. Free Luigi! It's got no end

inside. We have insurance on auto repairs now. We have insurance on home appliances. Give me a break. Oh your home appliances are all gonna blow up. Your car is no good. I mean nowadays the cars are more reliable than they've ever been when I was a kid. I mean, nowadays the cars are more reliable than they've ever been when I was a kid. I mean, it's ridiculous actually how reliable they are, especially if you buy a Toyota. But that's when you still had that crank on the front when you were a kid?

You know, vroom, vroom, vroom, vroom. And you had to be careful if you break your thumb if you don't hold it right. Well, Gove is seeing this. That's the other Nova Nordisk option. They are seeing this and they're in the price wars. To the index tonight, is It's going crazy. Everybody's reducing cost. It's funny how the demand goes up but the prices go down. That doesn't make any sense. Well, something's up. It's the insurance part.

It's completely the insurance part. They're cutting out the insurance. That's what everyone's seeing. That's why Tina loves that crowd health thing. It's amazing. She got like $300 for preventative care and she only pays like $250 a month. Like, oh, and we're giving everybody, because they have so much money now, this fund. It's so good as an alternative to insurance.

People are just going around the system and it's great. It used to cost us $1,800 a month. No way. No. It was much better. Until we're old enough for Medicaid, which you know the Republicans are going to cut. Medicare. Medicare.

Yeah, well, Donald Trump's going to do away with it. We'll have no Medicare. We'll have no Social Security. We're going to wind up eating cat food. Yeah, you'll be screwed. We'll be eating cat food, my mom always used to say. Cat food. Jay, Jay, we're going we wind up eating cat food. Yeah, you'll be screwed. We'll be eating cat food, my mom always used to say. Cat food? Jay, Jay, we're going to wind up eating cat food.

Whatever happened to the stories when I... There were stories, it wasn't that long ago they were talking about the poor, you know, the old people eating dog food from cans. When I was a kid. Remember those stories? What happened to those stories? Yes, when I was a kid, that was the story. My mom would freak her out.

It's like, if you lose your job, then we're going to wind up eating cat food. I always thought it was dog food. Nobody wants to eat cat food. My mom always had, she took it to a next level. It's going to be worse than dog food, Jay. It's going to be worse than dog food, Jay. It's going to be cat food. I'm reminded of a, there was a, there was a woman that the data California in a college newspaper from Berkeley, she did a,

I still think this is a genius. She did a column, uh, a news column on dog food reviews. And she ate it. And she ate the dog food and kibble. In fact, she'd eat kibble. I've eaten kibble. I've eaten everything I've ever given to my pets. I've tried myself. Really? Every single thing. You could write this up. This is, I, I, cause I was, I read it. I would, I wouldn't do it, but I'd read all this.

So we give Phoebe one cookie at night and she knows because time to go to bed, she runs into the studio, that's where her bed is, she lays down and then she gets a cookie, it's one cookie and sometimes it's honey yogurt and sometimes it's bacon and eggs. And I got to tell you, I smelled the bacon and eggs like I'm going to try this. It was like, you know, like a bacon and egg cookie. It was pretty good it's not that bad this material were you wasting what do you mean I'm doing it on the show you're

doing it now but this has been going on for years I think in a pinch I'd eat the dog we want to know we want dog food and nuggets. You want a review? You want a review? Milk bone reviews. The only thing I can't, even with my new teeth, I'm afraid to eat her chomp. So in the morning after our walk she gets a chomp. It's good for her teeth. You're talking about that's like a rawhide thing?

Yeah, I can't eat that. That's something you eat? You wouldn't have to review that. She crunches that in three seconds, it's gone. But if you want, I'll do the cookie review. Sure. Because we buy it in a three pack. We get the honey yogurt, the bacon and eggs and some other flavor, which I can't remember because I probably haven't tried it yet.

So I'll give it a shot. I think you should. This will add dimensionality to the show. Well, with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage. Say in the morning to you, the man who put the sea in his TikTok videos. Say hello to my friend on the other end, the one and the only Mr. John C. DeVore-er!

Yeah, in the morning you're gonna say I'm curry anymore. Sea waster on ground, feet in the air, subs in the water, the dames and the nights out there. In the morning to the trolls and the names and the nights out there The answer little down I think our average 2023 which is if I look over the last show on Thursday was 2135 last 10 shows average 2057 but it is above the hundred show average. So we're above the 100 show moving average Which hey, they Phoebe's mad now because she's like you not eating my cookie. She's growling. Yeah, you good girl Yeah, can I have your cookie? Yeah

Those trolls are in the troll room. They are hanging out there, man We had a big server crash last night the troll room. The troll room was there. Man, we had a big server crash last night. The troll room was up, but the stream was down. The downloads were down. It was very, it was troublesome for everybody. What happened? Some server locked up hard and, you know, I could have woken VoidZero up, but it would be like three in the morning for him. So I sent him a text message because sometimes you'll hear the text message, but he didn't, I'm not gonna call him. So, of course he was up, probably within like midnight or 1 a.m. our time

and he fixed it, but something, that has not happened in over a decade. But you could tell the troll room was disturbed. They were talking politics and yelling at each other because there was no stream to listen to. All of a sudden, the troll room turned into a mess. You got Baron Spud the Mighty who knows everything about everything. He was just hogging the airwaves. They go nuts. They do, they do. They had nothing to calm them down, nothing to calm them down.

But luckily the stream is back up and of course we do the show live every Thursday and Sunday, but there's a lot of live shows at the No Agenda stream and you can listen to it at trollroom.io or noagenda.stream or I recommend the Modern Podcast apps. Podcast Guru is one you can check out. And what's cool about Podcast Guru, like some of the others,

when we go live, you get an announcement. You get boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, get a little alert, and then you tap on that, and boom, you're listening live. And whenever we publish the show, if you can't listen live, although you should, because it's a lot of fun, you get a notification within 90 seconds of publishing.

I did that keynote at the National Religious Broadcasters Conference. Yeah, you were the keynoter. I did two keynotes actually, two keynotes. Two? Two, yes. How can that even exist? Well, they had multiple keynotes. It was billed as a keynote, it was a keynote. I did the future of radio and the future of podcasting.

What is the future of radio? Local. It's all local and it's podcasts. That's the future because podcasting has now finally disrupted radio and everybody knows it. But then I showed an example of, you know, there's a lot of broadcasters slash podcasters there, of course, at the conference say, Have you ever had this happen to you where someone goes online or, or emails you and says, you haven't

uploaded, you forgot to upload to Apple. I said, you know, that's not actually how it works. Of course, everyone's laughing because they've all heard this. Like, yeah, my show sometimes doesn't, you know, doesn't show up on Apple for an hour and a half or two hours later on Spotify takes forever. I said, that's because you're not using a modern podcast app. Tell them to get a better app, podcastapps.com. A lot of extra features for that, by the way, which you will enjoy when you go to PodcastApps.com. Of course, we do this show live, but we also do it value for value, which means we don't have to think about much. Just we have to think about delivering the best media deconstruction for you.

We don't have to please anybody specifically. Don't have to please advertisers or investors, or even have to worry about people going, I'm unsubscribing from your Patreon. From your Patreon. I'm stopping my payment. Yeah. Don't have to worry about getting debanked or debunked or defunct, whatever it is. No.

If you get value out of the show, then you send this value back. And if you don't get value, then we don't. And eventually, you know, if we don't provide enough value, then we go out of business. And it hasn't happened so far, over 17 years. We're in our 18th year, still going strong, and we're very pleased about it. So you can send back value to us in multiple ways.

Treasure, which we appreciate, and we will be thanking, as we always do, every single person who supported us financially, $50 or above. You can also put your time and your talent to good use. People organize meetups, they do websites, they do promotions for the show. And a great way to help promote the show is with artwork that we can use for each individual episode. And of course, the modern podcast apps always show the modern art. Not all of the podcast apps do that in mainstream legacy podcast app land

So we chose Dame Kenny Ben another fine Dutch artist who did a great a great piece We talked about the social charcuterie because that's how some NPR dude was pronouncing a shirt card for the quarter and this social charcuterie board, which I'm going to presume this is an AI generated thing. What do you think? Do you think that that was done with Photoshop? It had to be manipulated. I think it started as AI and I think there's some tweaking.

Yeah, I could be wrong. I mean, it's good. This the word social is a hewn out of cheese. And the thing is good. The word social is a hewn out of cheese and the charcuterie also cheese and perhaps some other sandwich. A lot of salami. So I don't know about the green. I don't know what kind of salami the green letters were from, but it wasn't really good. She actually did two pieces. Let me see. And we went back and forth about which of the two to choose. The one with the bigger lettering is the one that will always win.

Yeah, although I like the fact that in version two she had Kareem Dvorak also spelled out in cheese and sandwich meats. Yeah, I didn't think that was important. Let's see, what else did we talk about? Nothing, really. Nothing at all? You may be right. I believe that the art is always a function of the show itself. In other words, if we don't have topics that are inspirational so far as the artist is concerned, oh, I have an idea.

If the art's no good, we always blame ourselves. Yeah, and I believe it to be our fault. Yeah, so completely your fault is the wooly mouse art that I see showing up. Thanks a lot. Thanks a lot, Dvorak. Good job. You focused the artist out.

A little mouse with tusks. It's not good. We're not choosing it. Mouth with, mouse with tusks. People, it's still wide open as far as I'm concerned. Noagendaartgenerator.com. That's where you can see all the art that's submitted. And guess what's still wide open as far as I'm concerned. NoAgendaArtGenerator.com. That's where you can see all the art that's submitted. And guess what? You can submit as well. That's what makes it so cool. It's like an ongoing competition. We love to see our artists succeed and we

appreciate their work very much. NoAgendaArtGenerator.com. And now we're going to thank our executive and associate executive producers. These are the producers who supported us financially $200 or above now, we will read your notes no matter what's in it and You get an associate executive producer credit, which is a real Hollywood credit It's good for your lifetime and you can use it anywhere credits are recognized including IMDB calm $300 or above we also read your note, but you get an executive producer credit.

That's true. That's true. That's true. That's true. That's true. That's true. That's true. That's true.

There you go. We haven't heard that in a long time. I don't remember ever hearing it. Eli the Coffee Guy, Bensonville, Illinois, our buddy, 203-06. John's last tip of the day is spot on. I discovered Melinda's green sauce a few years back and have been hooked ever since. I put it on just about everything. Cornflakes.

You might be surprised. Although I don't put hot sauce on my coffee, I do make a mean Mexican latte with cayenne, cinnamon and honey. Visit gigawattcoffeeroasterstotrythat.com and use code ITM 20 for 20% off your order. Stay caffeinated, says Eli the coffee guy. All right. And we have another associate executive producer, 202 from the Trans Squire,

who checks in from St. John's, Arizona. ITM Zionist shills. That's Zionist boomer shills to you. I was done supporting you cisgender white male boomers, but changed my mind after hearing Adam might be gay. As I'm sure John remembers from boyhood, aspiring knights used to be called Squires. From him from your boyhood, John. my cumulative donations have now surpassed $500 which I believe should entitle me to the title of Squire Hmm until that was a thing we introduced

Like five six seven eight years ago that never took off and we never used But we can call him a squire if he wants to be called Squire. Well, he wants to be the trans Squire Until a decree from the Roundtable drops on this matter, I humbly demand to be spoken of as the trans Squire. I think you should put a t-shirt on yourself that says I'm a trans Squire. I think it works. Yes, you're a trans Squire. I'm not a narcissist no matter what my friends, family therapists and Reddit say.

I'm hopeful the Roundtable will hear my pain as a live Squire is better than a dead non-titled producer. I can't believe anybody really wants me blowing my brains out live in the troll room on some future show day. So do the right thing, Roundtable, and make me an official squire. So noted, and so done. You are an official squire. Sincerely, the Trans Squire. That was interesting. Linda Lupatkin's also interesting. I'll say, I'll say, you think I'm gay. I mean, what's up? Uh...

pick up the cost of these things. I guess. Everyone who uses her brags and rants about it. Yes, she's the best. She's the best for executive resumes and job search needs. So thank you to our executive producers and associate executive producers. We appreciate it very much. We'll be thanking everyone above $50 in our second segment.

Our formula is this.

We go out, we hit people in the mouth. Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! You were born a shut up slave. Shut up slave. Right, so I need to go back to my, I had some technology news for you, which is just not a clip, but something I need to share. As I got this from Rob, the constitutional lawyer, a federal judge in Oakland, that's right up the road from you Yeah, I can assume from here has ruled that families from various states may proceed with Negligence and wrongful death claims against social media platforms. So this goes outside of

section 2 203 section Section 230. The legal theory is that these platforms purposefully addict minors, leading to compulsive use that causes mental and physical harm. The judge ruled that Section 230 does not protect the platforms from claims based on this addiction theory. It's very interesting. This because you know you can claim a lot of damage and all kinds of stuff and there was some other there's a new there's another defense which is similar

let me see where is this. Well now I can't find it of course. There was a defense for autism. Well, maybe it's under Big Pharma. Let me see. Um, no? Because they're starting to get interesting. Autism. Yes, here we go. Listen to this.

This morning, newly released court documents show lawyers for accused killer Brian Koberger argue he should not have to face the death penalty at his upcoming trial because of his autism diagnosis. His lawyers claiming Coburger's autism spectrum disorder or ASD makes him incapable of acting in a way that aligns with societal expectations of normalcy. The fear is that people will take his ASD and instead attribute some sort of guilt or menacing aspect to it. And for that reason the defense believes that the death penalty should be struck. People will take his ASD and instead attribute some sort of guilt or menacing aspect to it. And for that reason, the defense believes that the death penalty should be struck. Coburger is accused of killing four University of Idaho students at this off-campus house in 2022.

His lawyers say Coburger's disability has already affected media coverage and would bias the jury, claiming Mr. Coburger's facial expressions, including his lack of effect and concentrated stare are already being assigned sinister meaning by observers. The strength of this motion is predicated on the strength of that diagnosis and without more information because this motion is sealed we may not know with a full extent of Brian Coburger's ASD or how to apply to this case. Both prosecutors and the defense making requests about the upcoming trial. Prosecutors want victims' family members

allowed in court for the entire trial, while the defense wants lawyers and witnesses banned from using the words psychopath and sociopath. No ruling yet on those requests. So law is getting interesting. I'm pretty sure we'll soon see, well, you know, you transitioned your daughter, so, you know, she killed you. It's what you get.

I found that that case in the Idaho guy, because that we know about this guy, has been going on forever, this case. He murders four girls and then jumps in his car and takes off from New York or wherever he went. They caught him somewhere halfway there. Always looked like kind of a nutball in some way, but I never, they just brought this in out of the blue. How long was it? He's always been autistic. I never noticed it.

I guess, I mean, it's a wide spectrum. It's a pretty interesting idea. It's a wide spectrum. It's a wide spectrum. I'm sure Rob the constitutional lawyer will weigh in on it. And he's also weighed in on that. I think you have a clip on this as well about the Supreme Court ruling. Tonight the Supreme Court narrowly ruling the Trump administration must pay out nearly

$2 million in foreign aid. The first time the high court has weighed in on a Trump executive action in his second term. The five four ruling upholds a district court order that the money must be paid to nonprofit groups for work already completed on the government's behalf. Of course, typical ABC, very, very sparse and terse summaries, a lot more to it. It's not much better here, but there's a little more information on this NTD report. Yep, got it. The Supreme Court ruled today that the Trump administration

must resume payments to foreign aid organizations for work they've already done. The High Court's 5-4 decision upholds an order to release funding for contractors at the U.S. Agency for International Development, also known as USAID, and the State Department. Aid organizations said in a Supreme Court filing, they would face quote,

extraordinary and irreversible harm if the funding freeze continues. President Trump ordered a 90 day pause on all foreign aid on his first day back in office. That says he and the Department of Government Efficiency or DOJ continue to search for and cut what the White House has called waste, fraud and abuse in the federal government. So it's the $2 billion is work that was already completed.

So there's no argument. Not reported is my not reported clip, which actually brings a little more out than is not generally reported by the mainstream. And more legal updates on Trump's executive actions. A judge halts NIH funding cuts and the agriculture department is ordered to reinstate thousands of workers. A federal judge today blocked the Trump administration from cutting federal grant funding for research at medical schools and universities.

The nationwide injunction came at the request of 22 Democratic state attorneys general and related groups. The Trump administration said it was capping the rate at which it reimbursed research institutions for indirect costs, such as laboratory space, faculty, equipment and infrastructure. The cap would be at 15 percent, down from an average of around 28 percent. The National Institutes of Health said this would save the government $4 billion a year. U.S. District Judge Angel Kelly in Boston agreed the NIH-planned funding cuts were unlawful. The judge is an appointee of former President Biden. In addition, the Department of

Agriculture has been ordered to temporarily reinstate nearly 6,000 workers who lost their jobs as part of President Trump's effort to cut the federal workforce. The order from the Merit System Protection Board blocks the USDA from firing probationary employees for 45 days. Is this reporter's last name Lamas by any chance? Because she sounds like she's got to poop. No. The decision was issued a day after a federal judge blocked Trump from firing board member Kathy Harris.

Her term expires in three years. The board has already halted the firing of six other employees at the request of the Office of Special Counsel. Trump has sought to fire the watchdog agency's head, Hampton Dellinger, as well. Dellinger revealed yesterday that he had asked the board to halt the dismissal of thousands of USDA employees. That has not been reported, you're right. None of it of USDA employees. Hmm. That has not been reported. You're right. None of it's been reported.

They're putting the kibosh, the kibosh on a lot of this stuff. But on the other payments, stopping the payments, first of all, Amy Comid Barrett, Amy Crett she's the she's the turncoat and they've they've turned on her they've turned on her the right wing has you know they should she's like oh well you know and although she's probably right actually because the two billion dollars was work completed I don't know how they prove that but but this is how it works in America. You have Article 1, Congress' rights laws defining judicial jurisdiction. Article 2, the executive is in charge of paying taxpayer money to contractors, which does

enjoy sovereign jurisdiction and carrying out this function. Then Article 3, the judiciary that often invades these duties under the guise of judicial review, we call that checks and balances in America. So this is normal. They kick it back to the lower court. It goes back and forth. That's just how the system works. Yeah.

So it's not a big deal. It slows things down, which is the best part. Yeah, it is. And, and I'll, and I'll just reiterate something you said a few shows back. We, you know, we can laugh about the Democrats, but we really need a strong Democrat party because it, you know, things would get out of control with Republicans. It could easily happen. Could easily happen.

And where is my Epstein files? This is very upsetting to me. I'm very upset. I want my FBI. You're not the only one. Where's Kennedy's files? Oh yeah, I want the JFK files. I want the Epstein files,

which now of course will be redacted to protect national security. How can there be a national security issue in the Epstein files? That's kind of interesting. I know what it could be easy. Okay, give us a clue. CIA was running Epstein. Yeah. Well, we know that. Okay, give us a clue. CIA was running Epstein. Yeah, well we know that. Well, that's national security.

Let it all come out. I don't know what, yeah, they have to do a reset once in a while. Let it all come out. Yeah, we should just let it all hang out. They've got to, someone, at least one person has to burn over this. And maybe-

Dude, that's the issue, who's gonna burn it? They don't seem to want anyone to burn over this. And maybe that's the issue. Who's going to burn it? They don't seem to want anyone to burn over anything ever. Is your phone ringing or what am I hearing? Is your wind chime? You're hearing the little chimes? The wind chime. Do you have your wind chimes hanging? What is that? Are you doing percussion on the side while you're doing the show? I'm surprised you can hear it because it's on the backside of the mic. What is that? It's this thing. It's one of my noisemakers. So when you're talking, you're just

stroking your percussion instruments? I'm kind of like Blofeld and the cat. Blofeld. Okay, there's another reference no one gets. And I should have played have played there's always some one or two people that get it and they they say you know That's that was fine. I could do this. Yeah Let me send a donation in yeah Yeah, that's right. You're trying your chimes are the big donation driver. I forgot in this This happened early this morning today The president is expected to sign an executive order aimed at dismantling the Department

of Education. This comes as the Trump administration continues to find ways to downsize the federal government. With more details, here's ABC's Nicole D'Antonio. This morning, ABC News has learned the Trump administration is preparing to dissolve the Department of Education as soon as today. Sources say a draft executive order directs Education Secretary Linda McMahon to facilitate a department closure this week. The Department of Education employs more than 4,000 people, spending $251 billion last year.

Trump has said he wants to give education back to the states. I'd like it to be closed immediately. Look, the Department of Education is a big con job. It's unclear how Secretary McMahon will close the states. Oh, I'd like it to be closed immediately. Look, the Department of Education is a big con job. It's unclear how Secretary McMahon will close the department. Congressional approval is required to abolish a federal agency. Hmm. Is that true? Well, I thought it was, but I thought it was Jimmy Carter who put this thing in play with

the executive order. Let's double check. They must have codified it later. Oh, they must have. They must have. But that's a lot of money. But that thing's double check. They must have codified it later. Oh they must have, they must have, but that's a lot of money. But that thing's a joke. But can you imagine being Linda McMahon? We're gonna make you, we're gonna go through the hearings and everything and you get to be the Secretary of Education. Oh are you kidding me? I bet she loves it. She's into that wrestling stuff. Well I guess, yeah why not? You know, okay I get to be the

Secretary of Education, last Secretary of Education. Yeah, and I can see where she would like that. Let me see, originating... You know, she knew in advance that that was going to happen, obviously. This is interesting. The United States Department of Education is a cabinet-level department of the United States government originating in 1867. As part of the department, the department was in the either commerce or some other,

it was inside another department. It was not a separate cabinet member. It was not a separate entity. Yes. It was Carter that made that pulled it out and made it separate. Well, hold on. I'll read from the book of knowledge. In its current form, the department began operating on May 4th, 1980.

There you are. Having been created after the Department of operating on May 4th, 1980. There you are. Having been created after the Department of Health, Education and Welfare was split into the Department of Education and Department of Health and Human Services by the Department of Education Organization Act, which Jimmy Carter signed into law. So it was an act of Congress. So there. So you don't know what you're talking about. Misinformation. Okay. They split it off from HHS. It was now HHS. It used to be called something else. Yeah. But Carter was behind it. Yeah. Okay. But it wasn't the executive order. It was a, it was an act.

It was all an act. I don't know what I'm talking about. You're spreading lies. I came close. You're spreading lies, Devorak. No, it's going to create that McMahon effect. What is that called? The Ed McGelman effect.

The Ed McGelman effect. Oh. The Ed McGelman amnesia, to be exact. Yeah. I know. You just forgot. I forgot because I had Ed McMahon amnesia. Well I do see on my quad screen now I do see teachers yelling at the camera so I guess something's happened. Oh that's right,

you have a screen in your studio. I can't really see it because I need my glasses, but if I wear my glasses, I can't see the screen in front of me. The control panel of the whole show. Without the control panel of the whole show, there's no show. So here is possibly the most fun clip that we both talked about and I said, I got it. I got it. I got it. I'll play but it's really it's a clip for both of us we both saw it this is a Democrat representative Sydney Kamliger Dove who for some reason just let the truth come out. You don't care about this country and that is unacceptable if you claim to be the president of the United States so we we are here, we are not going anywhere,

we are gonna continue to fight back, and we are gonna continue to speak lies to his truth, to his stealing, and to his cheating. Thank you. Thank you, no thank you, seriously, thank you. How can you get it so messed up? We're gonna speak lies to his truth. Lies to his truth, I tell you. It's amazing.

And there's never been a, did she apologize or correct herself? I don't know. There's never been a follow-up clip that keeps me going around. I have other things to do with my life than see if she corrected herself. But someone on the spot should have said, hey, hey, you said it wrong. I know the little crowd around her clapping. They didn't even pay attention. Let's see. I have, well, you know, since you played a Stephen A. Smith clip, you know, he's my favorite sports sportsball guy. Yeah, sure.

Yeah. I like it. Is he still on ESPN or is he gone? He's gone, right? I think he's independent now. I think he's doing a podcast. No, he comes and goes. He's not persona non grata. He's doing a podcast.

He's doing a podcast. Yeah, he's doing a podcast. Yeah, which is what you do. So he was on The View. And, you know, there's this ongoing like, Trump doesn't have a mandate. It was 1%. He doesn't have a mandate for anything new mandate. And Stephen A. Smith, he's making a name for himself.

He's going out there and he's owning the libs, his own people. He's only been in office for six weeks. Seems like six years, doesn't it? And he's been going around with his cronies touting his so-called landslide and blowout win. But he won the popular vote by 1.5%, one of the smallest ever. And he won the general election by less than 50%. So what kind of mandate is this really? It is a mandate that I'm gonna explain why. And I don't mind the question, but let me be very clear. I'm no supporter of of Trump I'm a supporter of truth and the fact and here's the facts the man won every swing state he increased

in terms of his vote voter turnout in his favor from the standpoint of blacks Latinos and young voters he increased his numbers in that regard from 2020 89 percent of the county shifted to the right 89% of the county shifted to the right. That's a mandate. We can sit up there and play around all we want to. In 2020, Trump didn't win the popular vote. He didn't win the electoral college vote. A matter of fact, the Republicans hadn't won the popular vote, if I remember correctly, in 2004.

But they did this year. So 20 years after they last won a popular vote, they won the popular vote. They won the electoral college vote. The man won every swing state and on top of it all, 89% of the counties shifted. I don't understand how people can look at that and say, there's no mandate. There's a mandate. What's a different definition of a mandate? The problem is that if you're the Democratic Party and you lost 49.8% to 48.3% and you're looking at that 1.5% dip, that's an excuse for you to say what we did really wasn't that

bad. We should continue to do that. No, don't continue to do that. Find a new strategy. Now, if the Democrat Party was smart, they would promote this guy as the Joe Rogan of the left. He doesn't have the views on YouTube yet. He's in the low, like 100,000 kind of per episode.

No, no, they can't do that. Why not? His message is all negative. No. He slams the Democrats left and right. He's worse than Carville. You need this. This is how it starts.

And then he starts to... I'm, let's say I'm a Democrat. Let's say I'm not, but let's say I am. I'm a, unaffiliated for anyone who wants to know. But let's say I'm a Democrat strategist right now. I'm thinking, no, I'm thinking exactly what he said, which is, they only, Trump only won by a little bit, you know, could have gone either way. We don't need some guy in there slamming us, telling us how bad we are.

We want some guy. I have an idea. There's a group called the Midas Touch. These guys will do the job. They're going to promote us properly. They're not going to say anything bad about us. They're not going to say we're a bunch of bonehead idiots. That's what they want.

You know what? We are the stupidest two guys on the planet. Here we are for over 17 years looking for an exit strategy. We know how to do this. We can be the Joe Rogan of the left. We could if we wanted. Yeah. Let's practice.

If we did, how do we do it? Right in, we'd be big phonies. How do we do it? Well, let's practice. I mean, we need to practice. We need to pick a topic. So, uh, I can't believe that. Holman, that guy, he is rousting children right out of their school benches.

He is separating families. Separating. I, he's putting kids in cages. And have you seen that guy who looks like a moron? He's mumbling and bumbling. He's horrible looking. He is the worst in the world. And did you see that speech by that orange headed freak? Did you see what he did? He politicized a kid with

brain cancer. It was unbelievable. I mean, how low can you go? Cold-blooded. He has no heart. And then he had the audacity. When you had a long-term sitting Democrat representative of the people of the great state of Texas where I live in Houston. It was a great singer, Al Green. He's a great singer and he's also a representative and he had the sergeant at arms. That's a military position. A sergeant at arms forcefully take him out. And I thought he was going to take out Nancy Pelosi. They were looking at Nancy like your next Nancy.

It was stepped in. They go stepped in. He's a Kyle. They were doing it anything but short of beating him up on the bright in front of everybody else and hold him out of there. And the audacity, ceremoniously, I might add. Completely without ceremony. And then he had the audacity to make that South African, big ball loving, on the spectrum, crazy freak who's all over our social security records. The true president.

The real president. Yes, we all know, we all know, they had the audacity to put him to shine the spotlight on him. And did you see that goofy look? He's there like, yeah, I'm getting all your records. I'm going to make Grok that much better. John, I'm thinking we can do this. It's worth considering. Well, it's something that people would, there's a group of people that we don't, that don't listen to our show normally. We don't get a lot of hate listeners.

But maybe if we can get the troll room to play along with us, you know, so they can see we have an audience. We can have the whole thing staged. Yes. Great. And we just have to do it. We can get some advertisers. And we're doing on a YouTube live? Yeah, with cans on our head. Yeah, well we have to do video. If we don't do video,

it won't work. Yeah, I agree. Maybe, yeah, so we have to do video. We'll make you, we'll put a cheesecloth in front of the lens for you, you know, just to soften it up a little bit. just to soften it up a little bit. Like the old actresses. Or Vaseline. Vaseline on the lens. Just smear the lens with Vaseline. That'll be looking good. And you know, and we'll share some of the love with the trolls.

We'll have a fun for the trolls and we'll give them all t-shirts and tote bags. Everybody gets paid. Everybody gets paid. Rent a crowd. Rent a troll crowd. I'm only half-heartedly laughing about this. I mean, it would be a refreshing change.

It would be refreshing, John. Yeah, it would give us some acting chops. Think about it. We could go for an award. Oh, and then we can bring in Hollywood people, because they'll come then. Yeah, that's true. We have like one lone Hollywood guy. Well, two actually. Maybe three. We have about three Hollywood guys total.

I can bring in the sparkle clergy, you know, because Adam's a Christian, but he loves LGBTQ. I mean, we can really broaden the horizons on this thing. Yeah, and you can do the gay thing. If it's enough money, I'll do the gay thing. John, I can't believe what that orange man did again. And we can do TikToks. Well, we already do TikTok. Oh, you mean be on TikTok. Yeah, we got to be on. You got to promote it. We need, uh, we need followers, man.

We need followers. I can turn the tech grouch into a liberal. Oh man. Can do the tech grouch liberal. How would he sound? I don't know. He sounds like this. Okay. Well, there you go. I don't know. I can't. That just blew the whole bit. It blew the whole bit. It's worth considering. It's worth considering. Think about the money.

Yeah, if we get the donations stay at this low level, we're gonna have to do that. We're going to ads. We're going to ads and we're gonna become Libs. Ads and liberals. We need a good name. Ad-ridden liberals, sellouts. We're gonna be co-opted. We need a good name for ourselves. We need a good name for ourselves. We need... The Lib-Jos. good name for ourselves. We need the Lib-Jos. Boom, he's got it. Hey, everybody. Welcome to the Lib-Jos show. That's right. I'm Lib, he's Joe. Together we're the Lib-Jos. And today we are mad. We are just hopping mad. You know why? Because black people don't get

treated fairly by this president. He's a racist. He's a racist. The only African he likes is the South African. We can do this. We can so do this. Oh, oh, oh, wait. We got to up talk. Oh, that's hard. We can do it. I think we can.

I'm not absolutely sure. But I think we can talk like this. Did you watch the State of the Union? I did. And how about this? Let me think. Oh yeah, we got a little vocal flat. Yeah, let me think about this.

Or the Mad Libs. We could be the Mad Libs. Now there's a callback. That might be even better. The Mad Libs. So let's get off this track and play a clip. Okay. I want to play this FEMA funded this track and play a clip. Okay.

I want to play this FEMA funded fiasco WTF clip. Oh, I love the alliteration. All right, a New York federal judge has denied the city of New York's request to order the Trump administration to immediately return over $80 million in FEMA funds. The judge says the city failed to show it would suffer irreparable harm. U.S. District Court Judge Jennifer Reardon made a quick decision from the bench after an hour of oral arguments. She said although the city may experience some harm, it could try other avenues to get the money back while its lawsuit against the federal government plays out. The money approved by the Federal Emergency Management Agency or FEMA was to reimburse the city for costs it incurred in managing the immigrant

crisis, the city said. The Trump administration removed the money from the New York City's bank account after Elon Musk accused the city of using $50 million of taxpayer funds to house illegal immigrants in luxury hotels. The city denied that it was using the funds illegally and said it wasn't a compliance issue but rather an issue of the administration not wanting the funds to be used for certain programs. Hmm. Okay, here's what, like, this is a WTF clip. Have we resolved, do we have the media saying, Oh, it was FEMA never paid for immigrants.

FEMA because during the North Carolina fiasco, if you recall, Oh, the FEMA, all the money, we don't have any money left because we gave it to immigrants and knew, wait a minute, you had money left. No, we didn't have. We did. We didn't. We did. We didn't. It's money was FEMA money. Wasn't FEMA money. This, this is confusing me. It was this money, FEMA money, federal emergency management, administration money to pay for the hotel.

New York argued there was and they deserved it. I mean, what, what, I don't get it. I'm so confused. That's, that should be your, your tagline on our new show. I'm so confused. That should be your tagline on our new show. I'm so confused. I'm going to talk like I'm marbles in my mouth. Well, I heard the president say it was twenty two billion dollars that ultimately had gone from USAID into all of not just FEMA funds, but into all of

this for irregular migration. But I still can't get over the fact that they're calling the Roosevelt Hotel a luxury hotel. I always get stuck on that one. That's always hard for me. Yeah, it's never been a... The sad thing is, I got a note from some producers in Western North Carolina. Those people are still completely screwed. It's like they're not on the news. No one cares about them.

They're still in tents. They've got no houses. There's nothing being done. I think it would be a good idea for those of you in government circles who listen to this podcast, you know who you are. The president should maybe make a visit because they need something. They need real help. They have been ignored.

Yeah, it's ridiculous. And maybe because it's a kind of a liberal part of the country, but it is, it is despicable while we're all arguing over stuff. There are actual Americans still living in tents, completely lost everything. There's probably still bodies strewn about the hillside and they need help. They really do. Western North Carolina, right in, let me know. What are you seeing? What's happening boots on the ground? We need to expose some of this because it's really bothering me. You know, it's like it got politicized right away with the

governor, Lieutenant Governor. Yeah, we were right off the tracks. Yeah. And then, you know, something else happened. Squirrel. This is our problem. This is the problem. This is the real problem with our messaging system in America is, you know,

it's like, oh, okay, we're going to pay attention to you for five seconds and we'll toss you a bone, you know, everybody was helping out and I know there's still people helping out, but we, these people need help and they're real Americans. They're people who are being ignored by all parts of the government, as far as I'm concerned. I hate to say. Okay. What's your pardon czar clip? Let's move on. Let's move on from the Americans intent and let's go to something else. Yes.

The pardon czar. This is a black guy on TikTok talking about this woman. This is a woman that Trump pardoned in his first term and so he's revisited her. She was the one I think that was, it wasn't Diddy, it was uh, who's it by? Kanye. Kanye and Kim Kardashian? And Kim Kardashian, they insisted this woman get pardoned. They went into visit the White House and Trump looked it over, said yeah for sure, pardoned her, brought her back in this term and made her the pardons are, according to this guy here. And this guy no play whatsoever. Everyone says, Oh, it's just exploiting her. So Donald Trump just pardoned a black woman, a real black woman. And then he turned around and said, you're now in charge of who gets pardons.

Alice Johnson, she spent 22 years in prison, 22 years. She had another 22 years left, can you believe it? You've been an inspiration to people. And we're gonna be listening to your recommendation on pardons, you're gonna go over and you're gonna be, she's gonna be my pardon czar, okay? And you're gonna find people just like you that should not, is should not have happened

So you mean to tell me a person that's been mistreated by the justice system really mistreated by the justice system Now gets to go look at other people who possibly have been mistreated by the same justice system and recommend them for pardons Well, I can tell you that Alice is, there's friends of mine are in contact with her, actually, with the pardons are. Oh, really? Yes. You know, our buddy who's, who's set to go to the slammer, the big house. Yeah. They're, you know, she's apparently looking at his case. Yeah. They're, you know, she's apparently looking at his case. So. Wow.

Yeah. Well, she's taking it seriously then. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Well, I mean, there's a lot of cases of people who got wrapped up in things and other scams, Medicare. Let's say thrown in the slammer for reasons that are dubious, I guess. And you get out and then you're given this job

and you really, there's not a lot of other things you can do and you're gonna get paid probably well. Yeah. You might take it quite seriously and become a maniac about it. Yeah, well. Which is good. Yeah, we're all doing videos.

We're all doing TikToks. Pardon him, please. Pardon him. Wouldn't it be fun if her first name was Dolly? That would be best. I could be Dolly Pardonson. Dolly Pardonson. I don't care what you say, but you never get that kind of top shelf comedy gold anywhere else except on your No Agenda show, ladies and gentlemen.

And now as we anxiously await Jon's tip for today, which is the highlight of every single episode of the No Agenda show, which is created by Dana Brunetti, Hollywood bigwig. Of course, we also have end of show mixes coming up. We have an overview of our meetups. We do have two nights to bring up onto the table.

He has a birthday call out donation to a smoking hot wife, Cherish. Happy birthday. Something, oh, he used the Chin Wan Hung cream on her because she got a bad burn in the kitchen and it worked like a champ.

You know, when I was in Dallas at the NRB, this is really dumb. So I had the, it's 8 a.m., I'm getting ready to have the keynote at 9, and I, this is going to sound really stupid, but it did happen. And I'd filled up my vape, and when you fill up the vape, you take off the top. And so you can put the vape juice in. But the coil is exposed. And I'm kind of like, oh, I'm going to have a little toke on my vape. And so I hit the button so the coil gets hot.

And of course, the top's no longer on. So the red hot coil goes against my top lip. Oh! And I'm like. Just before a speech. Yes, I'm like, oh my God, I'm gonna have this huge blistering lip. And I, oh no,

this is like the worst possible thing you can think of. So I immediately go for my, I always travel with. Will you travel with this Chinese herbal cream? The Ching Wang Hung cream, yes. I travel with Tamiflu. Well, I have all kinds of goodies in my kit. I'll bet.

And so I put some on my lip and no pain, no swelling, no mark, no nothing. And I was like, wow wow it is truly a miracle cream Ching-wan-hong you need some in your home. You need someone you're on the road You know someone spills hot coffee on you in the plane anything can happen you want this stuff with you Ching-wan-hong They should be giving us free cases of this stuff after that promotion.

Well I've been lacking so sorely on these ISOs, I'll just go first with my two. What difference does it make at this point? You've got some well of unknown depth of great ISOs, you're knocking it out of the park.

So here's what I have, I have these two. Damn man! It's just you're knocking it out of the park. So here's what I have. I have these two damn man Hmm Okay, that's a flat and here's the other one. I just love it What's usable almost usable, okay, so what are we what are we really gonna use then well we got a couple We got I think this is beat? Oh man, try and beat that for a show.

Ugh! Ugh! That one already kills mine and now you probably have a better one. The best. These guys are the best of the best. Nah, I don't even know which one to choose. Let me try. Oh man, try and beat that for a show. That's pretty good These guys are the best of the best I like using this one because we can use that when we turn into the mad libs. I think that would be Very useful. Alright everybody. That's what we use friend of sure. Why so but right now it's time for John's tip of the day

Okay, so this is a screwball tip, but it's a good tip. When you buy eggs, the eggs are starting to come back on the market a little bit, not really in any extreme amount, but they're out there. I am going to recommend, I told Mimi, she said what do you have for tip of the day? I said I'm gonna recommend jumbo eggs. Wait a minute, of all the things Mimi calls you up and says what are you doing for tip of the day? I gotta check and make sure you're doing a good job there. Really? Yeah. Oh that's interesting, I like the cheese involved.

Jumbo, okay let me get back to it, jumbo eggs. When you see the, there's all these different eggs that are double a, whatever they did, their sizes, they have medium, large, extra large, and there's an egg called jumbo. Now jumbo eggs are interesting because besides being huge, like an extra minute to cook, if you're going to hard boil them, is that they're rare because jumbo eggs, it indicates a chicken is done for. These are chickens when they start producing jumbo eggs and sometimes you get

double yolks on a jumbo egg. The chickens you have to be cold because the chickens are making the eggs are too big. The chicken will get egg bound and probably have to be put down and there's nothing worse than an egg bound chicken because it's a suffering way to go. No, it's the worst. And so you end up with, so when you see jumbo eggs, which you won't find a lot of, but when you see them, buy jumbo eggs, they cost maybe, I don't know, maybe a dollar more, but there's like twice as much egg per egg. And so my recommendation of all things, things and my tip of the day is buy

jumbo eggs when you see them. I will back you up. Tina has been buying jumbo eggs, not the ones from Costco. Those are just regular size, but the jumbo eggs, it's more egg for the money. Yes, and it's the end of the chicken's life. You're not going to have the poor chicken that lays the jumbo eggs they're done for. You can always go for the emu egg. I think the emu egg is still, it is the way to go. And that everybody is your tip of the day. Find it at tipoftheday.net and noagendafund.com. Create advice for you and me, just the chip with JCB. And sometimes, Adam. Oh, by the way, before you end everything, I want to mention to the No Agenda Fun group

that puts together the tip of the day and puts it on their website that the sandwich I recommended some shows ago was from Burger King, not from Jack in the Box. Oh, what a canard. Please correct. Yes. And before we go into our end of show tune, have you seen the latest iteration of the Dana Bernitti and Scaramanga movie trailer? The 007 stuff?

Yeah, it's gotten pretty good. I'm Jesus. It is getting there. But the voices are no good. And you're way too handsome in that. It's going pretty good. I'm Jesus. It is getting there. But the voices are no good. And you're way too handsome in that. That is just fake news. I think it's no, I think it's okay.

It looks good. I don't think so. I look like that's exactly what I look like. We'll soon know on the Mad Libs show everybody. The new Rogan of the left. Get it anywhere you watch videos. All right, I can't wait for it. It's going to be fantastic.an of the left. Get it anywhere you watch videos. I can't wait for it's gonna be fantastic.

And from Northern Silicon Valley where I remain I'm John C. DeVorek. We will return on Sunday for more of your media deconstruction.

You can see like a world rest of the Federation, I'm going to dispense with the agency. Bush found a $75 million contract for inclusive justice in Colombia. The cuts are to Social Security staff. The administration announced variety of plans to cut 7,000 jobs in response to an executive order from President Trump, who has said he wants to slash the federal workforce, even in what have been considered politically sensitive functions, such as Social Security. Cutting Social Security is politically sensitive, and he knows they're trying to conflate the two to try to trick the dumb lessers of NPR into people that give them money.

The best podcast in the universe! Adios, mofo. Dvorak.org slash N-A Oh man, try and beat that for a show.
