She's got 38 00:01:55,110 --> 00:01:59,310 this friend who I've never heard of this woman ice spice. I guess 39 00:01:59,310 --> 00:02:04,140 one of the upside down evil Spice Girls is not a Spice Girl 40 00:02:04,140 --> 00:02:08,880 but ice spice. And, and she sees herself on the big screen that 41 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,900 all of a sudden starts doing devil horns with their hands. 42 00:02:12,900 --> 00:02:16,260 But she has her her thumb and her two middle fingers together. 43 00:02:16,260 --> 00:02:19,260 So it looks exactly like a devil's head. And she's going 44 00:02:19,260 --> 00:02:27,240 hey, I mean, that is CBS should be ashamed of themselves. I 45 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,090 mean, they they should have taken that out. They should have 46 00:02:30,090 --> 00:02:33,090 cut it out. That was bad. 47 00:02:34,350 --> 00:02:35,940 Unknown: It was real bad. It was I missed 48 00:02:35,940 --> 00:02:38,070 John C Dvorak: it. I actually didn't watch much of the game. 49 00:02:38,490 --> 00:02:39,600 Oh, I 50 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,790 Adam Curry: watched all of it up until 51 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,110 John C Dvorak: the end. The end. The only good part? 52 00:02:46,710 --> 00:02:51,810 Adam Curry: Yeah. It was kind of the good part. The end, man. 53 00:02:51,810 --> 00:02:54,930 Well, we weren't right. I certainly wasn't right about 54 00:02:54,930 --> 00:02:57,480 what happened. It was a good game, though. Why didn't you 55 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:57,780 watch 56 00:02:57,780 --> 00:03:00,060 John C Dvorak: our thinking back on it thinking back on it. We 57 00:03:00,060 --> 00:03:04,020 have to reevaluate the decision, especially yours that you make 58 00:03:04,020 --> 00:03:06,330 because you're pretty good at this and you miss it completely. 59 00:03:06,390 --> 00:03:08,970 I did. Well, I mean, it's one or the other is binary. So you're 60 00:03:08,970 --> 00:03:11,940 going to miss her you're not going to miss it. I think that 61 00:03:11,940 --> 00:03:16,230 what we overlook was the fact that this was this Taylor Swift 62 00:03:16,260 --> 00:03:21,750 gimmick for the NFL had to be rewarded at the end for doing a 63 00:03:21,750 --> 00:03:26,550 good job. pat on the back. Yeah. And so they had two wins to get 64 00:03:26,550 --> 00:03:30,300 now the opposite over she's gonna go off and do whatever she 65 00:03:30,300 --> 00:03:33,690 does. And everybody's happy it's up to 40 Niners 66 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,930 Adam Curry: I'm not so sure the opposite over and first before 67 00:03:36,930 --> 00:03:42,150 we even get to that I want to say that they were so smug and 68 00:03:42,150 --> 00:03:45,480 happy that I got it wrong that they had to shove it in my face 69 00:03:45,510 --> 00:03:50,670 with a touchdown pass mahomes is up to 333 yards. Why is that 70 00:03:50,670 --> 00:03:56,040 significant? The stadium's address is 3333 out Davis way 71 00:03:56,070 --> 00:04:00,600 he's never lost in this building. And they win it by 72 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:02,730 free on this touchdown throw 73 00:04:10,380 --> 00:04:14,880 John C Dvorak: that got me 333333 There are so many threes 74 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,790 involved there at the very end they got me they got mad winning 75 00:04:17,790 --> 00:04:19,080 by three the whole thing 76 00:04:19,109 --> 00:04:22,379 Adam Curry: but you tweeted something out.

What is what is the TAM Pfizer? 165 00:09:25,590 --> 00:09:28,290 What's your total addressable market? You may have created 166 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:33,900 Good job. Good job. But that was nothing. Everything was 167 00:09:33,900 --> 00:09:37,020 overshadowed and stopped dead in its tracks. We don't have to 168 00:09:37,020 --> 00:09:39,900 talk about the President being seen now. We don't have to talk 169 00:09:39,900 --> 00:09:43,980 about Tucker Carl's interview with Vladimir Putin. No, because 170 00:09:43,980 --> 00:09:49,740 we've got space wars. Breaking news Russian nukes in space 171 00:09:50,070 --> 00:09:51,660 nukes in space, everybody. 172 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:54,570 Unknown: Multiple sources 173 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,720 are telling CNN tonight that the US has new intelligence on 174 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:01,140 Russia's efforts to deploy a nuclear and by satellite system 175 00:10:01,170 --> 00:10:05,130 in space, this actually comes after the House Intelligence 176 00:10:05,130 --> 00:10:07,890 Committee Chair Mike Turner today raised the alarm. He 177 00:10:07,890 --> 00:10:11,220 announced he's made information concerning a quote, serious 178 00:10:11,250 --> 00:10:14,280 national security threat available to all members of 179 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,910 Congress to review. Now, keep in mind if nukes were launched the 180 00:10:17,910 --> 00:10:20,790 US from space, they wouldn't be undetectable. And this news 181 00:10:20,790 --> 00:10:23,100 gives ominous context to the fact that one of Putin's 182 00:10:23,100 --> 00:10:26,370 mouthpieces floated this very idea on Russian state television 183 00:10:26,370 --> 00:10:29,970 nine months ago, as found by Russian media analyst Julia 184 00:10:29,970 --> 00:10:30,660 Davis. 185 00:10:34,950 --> 00:10:38,670 I think it's time to turn up the humans. We understand that all 186 00:10:38,670 --> 00:10:41,670 drones and everything else work for Americans only. Well, 187 00:10:41,670 --> 00:10:46,440 Starlink exists. If we carefully launch our nukes in space, there 188 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,150 will be no Starlink left. 189 00:10:49,170 --> 00:10:50,340 Adam Curry: So this is 190 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:55,560 John C Dvorak: all on Yes. Get ready for this. mercs in space. 191 00:10:58,170 --> 00:11:01,860 Adam Curry: Thank you. Now we got that one. Yes. So this this 192 00:11:01,860 --> 00:11:05,670 is obviously intended to get everyone talking about nukes and 193 00:11:05,670 --> 00:11:09,150 space and forget everything else you've ever heard about the 194 00:11:09,150 --> 00:11:12,540 President about what's going on? Please, nobody. Look at Jon 195 00:11:12,540 --> 00:11:16,740 Stewart's to side ism. Oh my god. He's getting so burned. 196 00:11:18,180 --> 00:11:20,490 John Stuart comes back to The Daily Show. 197 00:11:20,820 --> 00:11:22,950 John C Dvorak: Yeah, I watched the entire episode. I watched it 198 00:11:22,950 --> 00:11:26,130 as well. For I didn't think it was that different than anything 199 00:11:26,130 --> 00:11:29,730 he did in the past. I thought it was oh, exactly. It was but he 200 00:11:29,730 --> 00:11:33,270 was about to get a quick review. All right, reserved for the 201 00:11:33,270 --> 00:11:37,950 stupid beard. It's got which makes him look like like a 202 00:11:37,950 --> 00:11:44,010 drunk. It was I think he brought back the old team of writers. 203 00:11:44,010 --> 00:11:48,480 Yes, it was it was classic. It was exists structured just like 204 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:52,380 nine years ago. It's kind of old fashioned in that regard. It was 205 00:11:52,380 --> 00:11:56,040 much better than what he was trying to do on Apple. And and 206 00:11:56,190 --> 00:12:01,470 obviously better than his movie career. And it was done well and 207 00:12:01,470 --> 00:12:04,740 it had everything going on. It ran over time. For some reason. 208 00:12:04,740 --> 00:12:08,880 I can't figure that part out. But But what happened interview 209 00:12:08,910 --> 00:12:14,130 the interview with Beddoes that woman and but it was it was a 210 00:12:14,130 --> 00:12:18,120 classic. I would say if he if he dropped the last nine years and 211 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,850 put him right back on the air and shaved him maybe dyed his 212 00:12:20,850 --> 00:12:23,490 hair. You wouldn't know that that anything changed. All 213 00:12:23,490 --> 00:12:23,730 right. 214 00:12:23,730 --> 00:12:28,860 Adam Curry: So what changed of course, is the audience and 215 00:12:29,220 --> 00:12:33,300 there's a subtle psychological message in The Daily Show. I 216 00:12:33,300 --> 00:12:38,010 don't know if you saw it. The Daily Show is now using an 217 00:12:38,010 --> 00:12:42,000 acronym in their logo. Did you see the acronym? 218 00:12:43,170 --> 00:12:44,670 John C Dvorak: For the good not for 219 00:12:44,670 --> 00:12:50,820 Adam Curry: The Daily Show? It's the logo. T d S? Yeah, Trump 220 00:12:50,820 --> 00:12:56,670 derangement syndrome. It's obvious. It's funny and and the 221 00:12:56,670 --> 00:13:02,130 catch and the X is full of. I don't like Jon Stewart's to sad 222 00:13:02,130 --> 00:13:06,840 isn't. That's not Cuming, Nooyi. Good, good. 223 00:13:06,900 --> 00:13:08,460 John C Dvorak: Well, we're now where do you know where you're 224 00:13:08,460 --> 00:13:11,790 getting this from? That I that's what everyone's views my trades. 225 00:13:11,820 --> 00:13:12,810 No, no, no, 226 00:13:13,380 --> 00:13:16,500 Adam Curry: I'm not the trades. I'm talking about the TDS key 227 00:13:16,500 --> 00:13:20,640 did not slam Trump hard enough. You know, he's in a pretty good 228 00:13:20,670 --> 00:13:25,290 No, because it was to scientism he also slammed Biden. That's a 229 00:13:25,290 --> 00:13:29,220 no, no. The audience has changed. John Stuart doesn't 230 00:13:29,220 --> 00:13:35,520 realize this. People hate him now. It and by the way, we both 231 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:39,450 know that he's secretly conservative. We've talked about 232 00:13:39,450 --> 00:13:40,380 this for years. 233 00:13:42,450 --> 00:13:45,270 John C Dvorak: Yeah, yeah. The easy, the easy, the secret old 234 00:13:45,270 --> 00:13:48,660 fashioned conservative. Yeah, he's not a Trump guy, that's for 235 00:13:48,660 --> 00:13:49,800 sure. But no, 236 00:13:50,070 --> 00:13:52,950 Adam Curry: no, but he's a conservative and he was slamming 237 00:13:52,950 --> 00:13:56,970 on Biden, you can't slam on Biden when the message is the 238 00:13:56,970 --> 00:13:58,200 President is sharp. 239 00:13:59,580 --> 00:14:02,190 Unknown: Gets sharp enough. 240 00:14:02,250 --> 00:14:04,980 Adam Curry: It was good. It was a good little super cut. But 241 00:14:05,010 --> 00:14:07,110 forget about that back to nukes in 242 00:14:07,110 --> 00:14:10,050 Unknown: space yet care of what we're being told at this hour. 243 00:14:10,140 --> 00:14:13,590 Two sources confirmed to ABC News that the deliberations on 244 00:14:13,590 --> 00:14:18,600 Capitol Hill have to do with nuclear weapons in space. Russia 245 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:22,320 wanting to do that. This is not to drop a nuclear weapon, but 246 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,680 rather to possibly use it against satellites. We have one 247 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:29,730 person telling us it is very concerning. Very sensitive. This 248 00:14:29,730 --> 00:14:31,440 is a big deal. It's not 249 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,950 Adam Curry: a big deal. This has been known for years. Even 250 00:14:34,950 --> 00:14:37,650 speaker the house Johnson comes out and says this is not a big 251 00:14:37,650 --> 00:14:40,410 deal. What are y'all talking about? Mike Johnson Get it 252 00:14:40,410 --> 00:14:43,290 together brother. This is about covering everything up. We've 253 00:14:43,290 --> 00:14:47,640 got to have a new new new thing to talk about that was ABC yet 254 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:49,050 no, that's what it is. There's nothing 255 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,150 John C Dvorak: another there's another element that you're kind 256 00:14:51,150 --> 00:14:51,810 of overlooking 257 00:14:51,810 --> 00:14:53,970 Adam Curry: nominally You mean the space race. 258 00:14:54,870 --> 00:14:57,000 John C Dvorak: Now the fact that we're at this camp where did 259 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,360 this even began? It began out of the guys they Head of the 260 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,150 Intelligence Committee, he's the one who made the announcement 261 00:15:03,150 --> 00:15:06,510 say on it should all be. It's all part of getting more money 262 00:15:06,510 --> 00:15:07,920 to Ukraine. I'm 263 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:11,400 Adam Curry: completely, you jumped ahead of my analysis, but 264 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,170 that's okay. I'll skip all the, 265 00:15:13,410 --> 00:15:14,880 John C Dvorak: you know, if you'd speed it up, it would 266 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:15,090 help. 267 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:16,500 Adam Curry: Let's go to France 24. 268 00:15:16,530 --> 00:15:18,720 Unknown: This all starts as early on Wednesday, when the 269 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:22,110 House Intelligence Committee Chairman, tweeted, warning of, 270 00:15:22,140 --> 00:15:26,340 quote, serious national security threats. Now, that Intel It was 271 00:15:26,340 --> 00:15:28,920 then found out what had been made available to Congress, 272 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:32,370 people in Congress to look over in a highly compartmentalized 273 00:15:32,370 --> 00:15:35,370 and secure facility. It is highly Compartmented 274 00:15:35,370 --> 00:15:39,330 Information, and more details emerge later ultimately, 275 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:43,080 centered around a space based nuclear weapon designed by 276 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:47,400 Russia, which is meant to target satellites in space. Now, those 277 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,980 are satellites that could be used for civilian communication, 278 00:15:49,980 --> 00:15:53,400 but also military communication, and military surveillance as 279 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,910 well. Now, so far, the United States has no countermeasure for 280 00:15:56,910 --> 00:16:00,420 this kind of weapon. And it was in total, no sensitive and so 281 00:16:00,420 --> 00:16:04,020 important that it was shared with international allies as 282 00:16:04,020 --> 00:16:07,110 well. Now, it must be said this has been stressed by numerous 283 00:16:07,110 --> 00:16:11,010 people, numerous sources, thus, it is not an immediate threat. 284 00:16:11,250 --> 00:16:13,260 This is not something that's been launched, but it is 285 00:16:13,260 --> 00:16:15,990 something that Russia is looking into. And I've had it confirmed 286 00:16:15,990 --> 00:16:19,530 to me by numerous sources as well that this reporting is 287 00:16:19,530 --> 00:16:22,410 accurate, and also that the sources have known about this 288 00:16:22,410 --> 00:16:26,040 for quite some time. Congressman Milton, who is also on the 289 00:16:26,070 --> 00:16:29,730 Intelligence Committee says to CNN that he'd known about this 290 00:16:29,730 --> 00:16:33,390 intelligence for two years now he was saying that's Congressman 291 00:16:33,390 --> 00:16:37,170 Turner, the person who leaked this information. So because he 292 00:16:37,170 --> 00:16:40,350 was offended that the Biden administration hadn't told him 293 00:16:40,350 --> 00:16:43,950 personally about it sooner. So some politics also coming in to 294 00:16:44,100 --> 00:16:46,740 Social Security here in Washington. I 295 00:16:46,740 --> 00:16:48,540 Adam Curry: am in total agreement with you. This is all 296 00:16:48,540 --> 00:16:51,990 about funding, they need money, because hey, I mean, we need 297 00:16:51,990 --> 00:16:55,920 money we just meet and I will prove that after we get to be 298 00:16:56,130 --> 00:16:57,360 what will 299 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,090 John C Dvorak: be for you go on. Let me say something about that 300 00:17:00,090 --> 00:17:06,030 clip. That guy who is this guy on press 24 He's he one thing he 301 00:17:06,030 --> 00:17:10,620 gives himself away as a Rube by saying the word instead of 302 00:17:10,620 --> 00:17:14,760 saying, Come, come, I can't even now I can't even send myself. He 303 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:16,680 says come 304 00:17:16,710 --> 00:17:20,700 Adam Curry: part mented the human compartmentalised. Yeah, 305 00:17:20,730 --> 00:17:21,060 and but 306 00:17:21,060 --> 00:17:23,100 John C Dvorak: he said I believe he said it twice because I don't 307 00:17:23,100 --> 00:17:25,290 think he knows the frog. 308 00:17:27,060 --> 00:17:31,050 Adam Curry: Come on. Come on. English as a second language, 309 00:17:31,050 --> 00:17:34,440 give the guy a break. Now I think there's a subtext here. 310 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:39,690 The subtext is let's SIOP everybody again, why did we 311 00:17:39,690 --> 00:17:43,680 start our initial our race to the moon? Because the Russians 312 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:48,660 had Sputnik? Am I correct? I mean, I was barely alive. But 313 00:17:48,660 --> 00:17:52,020 the Russians had Sputnik they were putting monkeys in space. 314 00:17:52,470 --> 00:17:55,200 And now all sudden, they've got Oh, no, they're going to put 315 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,690 nukes in space. Well, well, well, what are we going to do? 316 00:17:58,170 --> 00:17:58,320 It 317 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,590 Unknown: could be history in the making a private mission to the 318 00:18:01,590 --> 00:18:04,380 moon has blasted off from the Kennedy Space Center at Cape 319 00:18:04,380 --> 00:18:12,630 Canaveral in Florida. 321 ignition, and with American 320 00:18:12,630 --> 00:18:15,660 aerospace company, intuitive machines launched it. 321 00:18:15,690 --> 00:18:18,450 Adam Curry: I gotta stop this for a second. That was an 322 00:18:18,450 --> 00:18:22,410 unAmerican countdown. That was the most effeminate countdown 323 00:18:22,410 --> 00:18:25,230 I've ever heard. This is not what we want from our space 324 00:18:25,230 --> 00:18:32,010 stuff. We want three to one, lift off instead of three to 325 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:33,870 one, lift off everybody 326 00:18:33,870 --> 00:18:41,070 John C Dvorak: again, three to one, ignition. And notice that 327 00:18:41,070 --> 00:18:42,270 the first time or you're writing 328 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,010 Unknown: on American people, American aerospace company, 329 00:18:47,010 --> 00:18:52,080 intuitive machines launched its Odysseus lander on a rocket made 330 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:56,040 by Elon Musk's SpaceX company. It's trying to become the first 331 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:59,160 commercial spacecraft to successfully land on the lunar 332 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,770 surface. The launch was originally planned for 333 00:19:01,770 --> 00:19:04,950 Wednesday, but it was postponed due to a technical glitch. 334 00:19:05,940 --> 00:19:10,080 Everything went according to plan. And if the landing also 335 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,440 goes well, Odysseus will search for water on the moon and what 336 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,230 some are calling a second space race. 337 00:19:16,620 --> 00:19:20,550 Adam Curry: A second space race. There it is second space race. 338 00:19:21,510 --> 00:19:26,340 So how cynical can you get on Super Bowl Sunday when everybody 339 00:19:26,340 --> 00:19:31,740 is looking at Taylor Swift and her devilish friends. Senate 340 00:19:31,740 --> 00:19:34,530 gets together on a Sunday. They're not going to Well, we 341 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,530 went they take they take vacation. They take off for 342 00:19:37,530 --> 00:19:41,790 anything. They take snow days. Oh, it's snowing. We can't go. 343 00:19:42,090 --> 00:19:45,870 They decided it was we're not going to watch the Super Bowl. 344 00:19:45,990 --> 00:19:50,190 We're not going to honor Taylor and Travis. Instead we're going 345 00:19:50,190 --> 00:19:54,450 to sit there and we're going to pass a bill of $95 billion for 346 00:19:54,450 --> 00:19:59,400 everything including Taiwan. But nothing for the border or we're 347 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,520 just going to put This together because we need the money. 348 00:20:02,550 --> 00:20:06,450 Unknown: So this package used to be connected to border security, 349 00:20:06,450 --> 00:20:10,680 which failed. What are the conversations in the White House 350 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:14,010 about exactly what these House Republicans want? Because if you 351 00:20:14,010 --> 00:20:18,480 look at any of these packages on the face of it, it usually is 352 00:20:18,900 --> 00:20:21,120 something that they would want. Yeah, 353 00:20:21,120 --> 00:20:24,270 it's I wish I could answer that question. But what we can't I 354 00:20:24,270 --> 00:20:27,420 mean, they said they wouldn't approve a penny for Ukraine 355 00:20:27,450 --> 00:20:31,320 unless the border was tied into it. So we said, Okay. And we 356 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:34,110 participated and help with the the negotiations that are 357 00:20:34,140 --> 00:20:36,630 largely done on the Senate side to get that done. And now they 358 00:20:36,630 --> 00:20:41,130 say, Well, no, can't can't do it. Because, you know, for 359 00:20:41,130 --> 00:20:43,500 whatever reason for whatever leadership reasons they have for 360 00:20:43,500 --> 00:20:46,440 that. So it's difficult to know exactly where they are mean, 361 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,900 though the speaker has been twisting himself into pretzel 362 00:20:48,900 --> 00:20:51,660 notch here, in terms of what he's willing to justify on any 363 00:20:51,660 --> 00:20:55,440 given day. We need this funding, Kirby he the funding for the 364 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,110 volume, you stepped on it again, listen, yes, he's willing to 365 00:20:58,110 --> 00:21:02,160 justify on any given day, we need this funding, we need the 366 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,710 funding for the border to but we need this funding for our 367 00:21:04,710 --> 00:21:08,010 national security with Ukraine, with humanitarian assistance, 368 00:21:08,070 --> 00:21:11,010 and certainly, as you rightly said, in the Indo Pacific, I 369 00:21:11,010 --> 00:21:14,280 mean, these aren't, these aren't just a wishes. I mean, this is 370 00:21:14,460 --> 00:21:17,100 this is actual urgent funding that's required for our own 371 00:21:17,100 --> 00:21:19,440 national security. We need this 372 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:20,040 Adam Curry: funding. 373 00:21:20,100 --> 00:21:22,230 John C Dvorak: What is he got a somebody have a gun to his head? 374 00:21:22,230 --> 00:21:24,990 What is he blabbering on like a maniac like this? 375 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:28,380 Adam Curry: That's probably not far from the truth? Yes. Yes. 376 00:21:28,410 --> 00:21:33,420 The Military Industrial Complex just wants more. They don't 377 00:21:33,420 --> 00:21:33,990 care. 378 00:21:34,770 --> 00:21:36,690 John C Dvorak: They don't see the writing on the wall. They 379 00:21:36,690 --> 00:21:39,630 don't get thrown. They figure they're, that's they figure 380 00:21:39,630 --> 00:21:44,220 that's it. Let's get as much as we can while we can. And what's 381 00:21:44,220 --> 00:21:47,430 the what's the I'm one of these that Sam, one of these guys 382 00:21:48,510 --> 00:21:51,360 wishes. A lot of them are women, by the way, including the head 383 00:21:51,360 --> 00:21:56,550 of Lockheed. It goes like what are you guys waiting for? You 384 00:21:56,550 --> 00:21:59,850 know what's going on? You know what's going to happen? Get the 385 00:21:59,850 --> 00:22:01,710 job done? Yep. 386 00:22:02,220 --> 00:22:04,890 Adam Curry: I have some proof that this is all about Trump. 387 00:22:04,890 --> 00:22:09,780 Remember, we have this huge NATO exercise. I got my NATO clip. 388 00:22:09,810 --> 00:22:14,190 Everybody's all I got to do and I want to hear you. It didn't 389 00:22:14,190 --> 00:22:17,100 John C Dvorak: take jack for him to get everyone all worked up 390 00:22:17,100 --> 00:22:17,370 about 391 00:22:17,370 --> 00:22:19,080 Unknown: doing. Brilliant Western 392 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,320 leaders have criticized Donald Trump for saying he would not 393 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:26,370 protect NATO allies who are not spending enough on defense from 394 00:22:26,370 --> 00:22:30,120 Russian attacks. The Republican frontrunner Trump said he had 395 00:22:30,120 --> 00:22:33,930 previously told NATO states, he would encourage Russia to do 396 00:22:33,930 --> 00:22:37,920 whatever they want. If they didn't fulfill their commitments 397 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:41,340 to the bloc. Trump has regularly lashed out at members of the 398 00:22:41,340 --> 00:22:44,670 line out for failing to Spanish notchback percent of the 399 00:22:44,700 --> 00:22:50,430 economic output on defense. NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg says any 400 00:22:50,430 --> 00:22:54,450 suggestion that allies would not defend each other undermines 401 00:22:54,450 --> 00:22:55,620 Western security. 402 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,170 Adam Curry: Now this is interesting. This is that was a 403 00:22:58,170 --> 00:23:03,690 report from I think it was Deutsche Bella, but then listen 404 00:23:03,690 --> 00:23:07,680 to this report. And what Stoltenberg actually said video 405 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:11,940 released by Ukraine Oh yeah, by the way, drones are back water 406 00:23:11,940 --> 00:23:13,770 drones. The water drones. 407 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,320 Unknown: She was a naval drone homing in on the Russian ship 408 00:23:16,350 --> 00:23:20,790 off the coast of Crimea. flashes and plumes of smoke can then be 409 00:23:20,790 --> 00:23:25,740 seen. Final shots appear to show the Cesar Krunic of beginning to 410 00:23:25,740 --> 00:23:30,600 sink. This was the ship sailing through the Istanbul Strait in 411 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:35,040 2020. It can carry up to 90 crew and is designed for beach 412 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:39,210 landings. No official coming from Moscow so far, but normally 413 00:23:39,210 --> 00:23:42,750 reliable social media channels and intercepted radio. 414 00:23:43,020 --> 00:23:45,480 Adam Curry: I love their reporting normally reliable, 415 00:23:45,540 --> 00:23:50,160 normally reliable social media channels. This is This is top 416 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:51,090 notch people 417 00:23:51,270 --> 00:23:54,480 Unknown: but normally reliable social media channels and 418 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:59,340 intercepted radio traffic seemed to confirm the attack would be 419 00:23:59,340 --> 00:24:02,880 another serious blow to Russia's Black Sea Fleet. Ukraine has 420 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:06,780 successfully targeted its ships and harbors defeating Russian 421 00:24:06,780 --> 00:24:10,290 attempts to impose a blockade on its grain exports. All right now 422 00:24:10,290 --> 00:24:14,070 let's try to trump the news was hailed as a victory by NATO. 423 00:24:14,940 --> 00:24:15,630 Ukrainians 424 00:24:15,630 --> 00:24:20,520 have been able to inflict heavy losses on the Russian Black Sea 425 00:24:20,550 --> 00:24:21,690 Fleet. By 426 00:24:21,690 --> 00:24:23,730 Adam Curry: the way, I love the fact that NATO comes out and 427 00:24:23,730 --> 00:24:26,430 says hey, this is great. We're not in this war or anything. 428 00:24:26,430 --> 00:24:29,310 They're not a NATO member, but it's great. It's doing great I 429 00:24:29,310 --> 00:24:29,700 find 430 00:24:29,700 --> 00:24:32,190 John C Dvorak: it deplorable that they would do that and now 431 00:24:32,190 --> 00:24:34,800 listen to this. They're not a NATO member what are they 432 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,350 cheering them on? or NATO supposed to have a specific job 433 00:24:37,350 --> 00:24:40,740 to do? Not getting involved in every thing every which way like 434 00:24:40,740 --> 00:24:42,990 they did in Syria? Well, 435 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:47,910 Adam Curry: Stoltenberg still head of NATO has a message. 436 00:24:48,270 --> 00:24:52,530 Unknown: The news was hailed as a victory by NATO. Ukrainians 437 00:24:52,530 --> 00:24:57,420 have been able to inflict heavy losses on the Russian Black Sea 438 00:24:57,450 --> 00:25:01,470 Fleet. They have actually been able to It pushed the Black Sea 439 00:25:01,500 --> 00:25:05,730 Fleet away from the western part of the Black Sea. And this is a 440 00:25:05,730 --> 00:25:10,080 great achievement a great victory for victory. A great 441 00:25:10,530 --> 00:25:10,890 defense 442 00:25:10,890 --> 00:25:13,950 ministers were meeting for the first time since Donald Trump 443 00:25:13,950 --> 00:25:18,210 again criticized some for not paying enough and cast doubt on 444 00:25:18,210 --> 00:25:21,690 the US has commitment to their defense. But new figures on 445 00:25:21,690 --> 00:25:25,800 Wednesday show 18 out of 31 members are now paying the 446 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:30,210 minimum 2% of GDP, including Germany for the first time since 447 00:25:30,210 --> 00:25:35,700 the Cold War. Only five were in 2016. Just before Trump entered 448 00:25:35,700 --> 00:25:36,660 the White House. The 449 00:25:36,660 --> 00:25:42,690 criticism that we hear is not primarily about NATO. It's about 450 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:48,510 NATO Allies not spending enough on NATO. And that's a valid 451 00:25:48,510 --> 00:25:49,050 point. 452 00:25:51,540 --> 00:25:53,160 John C Dvorak: What was the punchline? I couldn't hear him 453 00:25:53,190 --> 00:25:57,840 Adam Curry: that's a valid point. Oh, yeah. Funny. Yeah. I 454 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,480 mean, Trump is actually doing the doing the bidding of the 455 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,160 military industrial complex. 456 00:26:02,250 --> 00:26:04,860 John C Dvorak: Yeah, it makes everyone spend more money Yeah, 457 00:26:04,890 --> 00:26:07,530 that's what that whole thing is. I don't know why anyone can put 458 00:26:07,530 --> 00:26:10,830 two and two together and say this is good for us. Man 459 00:26:10,860 --> 00:26:15,090 Adam Curry: I gotta tell you it's like people don't see it 460 00:26:15,090 --> 00:26:19,260 we're not fighting the left or the right or the red or the blue 461 00:26:19,260 --> 00:26:22,020 or whatever you are problems are not going to be solved in 462 00:26:22,020 --> 00:26:26,760 Congress in the Oval Office. Where we're fighting the powers 463 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:31,050 of darkness like ice spice that's nice. You're not gonna 464 00:26:31,050 --> 00:26:34,620 get off definitely cannot get off of ice spice that was a 465 00:26:34,620 --> 00:26:37,860 screenshot of this devil's horns that she did this video is 466 00:26:37,860 --> 00:26:41,670 deplorable. deplorable. All right, do your NATO clips and 467 00:26:41,670 --> 00:26:42,690 then I want to get into drones. 468 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:43,890 John C Dvorak: I got a three by three. 469 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,890 Adam Curry: Oh my god.

You 545 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:05,880 gotta pay. 546 00:31:06,270 --> 00:31:10,050 Can you imagine a former president united states saying 547 00:31:10,050 --> 00:31:15,000 that? The whole world heard it. The worst thing is he means 548 00:31:15,450 --> 00:31:19,680 delivering this. No other president Our history has ever 549 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:23,310 bowed down to a Russian dictator. Let me say this as 550 00:31:23,310 --> 00:31:28,740 clearly as I can. I never will. For God's sake. It's dumb. It's 551 00:31:28,740 --> 00:31:31,080 shameful. It's dangerous. It's unAmerican. 552 00:31:31,170 --> 00:31:33,810 Meanwhile, that package in the same place, so contained more 553 00:31:33,810 --> 00:31:37,890 than $14 billion for Israel, but it does not include any funding 554 00:31:37,890 --> 00:31:41,490 for domestic border security, after Republicans with Trump's 555 00:31:41,490 --> 00:31:45,090 backing killed a bipartisan border security bill saying it 556 00:31:45,090 --> 00:31:48,690 was not tough enough with Speaker Mike Johnson saying 557 00:31:48,690 --> 00:31:51,720 that's the price for any new money for Ukraine. Bad 558 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,090 health security begins with border security. 559 00:31:54,780 --> 00:31:57,450 Adam Curry: All along the same clip at the end. Okay, so with 560 00:31:57,450 --> 00:32:00,690 Trump's backing, that was great. I love that there's no actual 561 00:32:00,690 --> 00:32:02,970 evidence of this and what it was, you know, there was the 562 00:32:02,970 --> 00:32:04,560 voting. Was he putting up 563 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,540 John C Dvorak: money and voting? He wasn't there. He was not 564 00:32:06,540 --> 00:32:08,850 President. What are they talking about? It was something else 565 00:32:08,850 --> 00:32:11,880 Adam Curry: I wanted to mention in the was it there was 566 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,420 something else in that clip that was totally irksome. homos 567 00:32:15,420 --> 00:32:19,230 Second, do you mind if I just go back for so go review it now 568 00:32:19,230 --> 00:32:22,080 almost like it was somewhere in the middle here. They 569 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:26,610 Unknown: said you didn't pay your delinquent. He said, Yes. 570 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,820 Let's say that happened? No, I would not protect you. In fact, 571 00:32:29,820 --> 00:32:32,670 I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want. You 572 00:32:32,670 --> 00:32:33,840 gotta fail. Can 573 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:38,610 you imagine a former president united states saying that? The 574 00:32:38,610 --> 00:32:43,500 whole world heard it. The worst thing is he means and delivering 575 00:32:43,500 --> 00:32:47,070 this. During rebuke. No other president Our history has ever 576 00:32:47,100 --> 00:32:50,280 bowed down to a Russian dictator. critical moment will 577 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:51,960 never be forgotten. 578 00:32:52,050 --> 00:32:54,120 John C Dvorak: I said bowing down any comments from 579 00:32:54,300 --> 00:32:57,030 Unknown: billion for Ukraine? I don't remember what it was. But 580 00:32:57,030 --> 00:32:57,300 anyway, 581 00:32:57,300 --> 00:32:59,220 John C Dvorak: I'm sorry. But you probably pick it up on the 582 00:32:59,220 --> 00:33:01,170 CBS report. There's no 583 00:33:01,170 --> 00:33:03,840 Unknown: doubt the former president has said a dangerous 584 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:07,260 and shocking me, frankly, on American signal to the world. 585 00:33:07,500 --> 00:33:10,230 President Biden leveled a blistering attack today on 586 00:33:10,230 --> 00:33:13,470 Donald Trump for recently saying he wouldn't defend NATO allies 587 00:33:13,470 --> 00:33:16,050 from a Russian attack. If they don't pay full do 588 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,020 Adam Curry: Wow, this sounds like the same guy. It sounds 589 00:33:19,020 --> 00:33:20,310 like the same coin. No. And 590 00:33:20,310 --> 00:33:21,960 John C Dvorak: you started playing the clip. Oh, my God. 591 00:33:23,310 --> 00:33:26,220 Adam Curry: This was the same guy.

That was NBC same? Well, you know, they came 599 00:33:41,940 --> 00:33:44,760 from the same stable. Oh, that's a lot of 600 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,540 Unknown: former President has said a dangerous and shocking 601 00:33:48,540 --> 00:33:52,080 me, frankly, on American signal to the world. President 602 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:55,140 Biden leveled a blistering attack today on Donald Trump for 603 00:33:55,140 --> 00:33:57,690 recently saying he wouldn't defend NATO allies from a 604 00:33:57,690 --> 00:34:01,380 Russian attack. If they don't pay full dues to the alliance. 605 00:34:01,410 --> 00:34:04,620 Let's say that happened. No, I would not protect you. In fact, 606 00:34:04,620 --> 00:34:07,470 I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want. You 607 00:34:07,470 --> 00:34:09,870 got to face you got to pay your bills. 608 00:34:10,380 --> 00:34:14,670 Imagine a former president united states saying that the 609 00:34:14,670 --> 00:34:18,480 whole world heard it same clip and worst thing is he means that 610 00:34:18,780 --> 00:34:21,960 no other president in history has ever bowed down to a Russian 611 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:22,620 dictator. Oh 612 00:34:22,619 --> 00:34:23,159 John C Dvorak: down. 613 00:34:23,429 --> 00:34:27,329 Unknown: Let me say this as clearly as I can.

It's on American. 615 00:34:32,220 --> 00:34:33,780 The President spoke after an all 616 00:34:33,779 --> 00:34:36,179 Adam Curry: I know what the I know. I had a question. They 617 00:34:36,179 --> 00:34:39,479 keep calling Putin a dictator isI a dictator I thought isn't 618 00:34:39,479 --> 00:34:42,299 isn't that they've got they don't have a dictatorship in 619 00:34:42,299 --> 00:34:44,039 Russia. Do they? know 620 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:45,270 John C Dvorak: he's elected? Yeah, he's 621 00:34:45,270 --> 00:34:45,810 Adam Curry: elected. 622 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:49,710 John C Dvorak: I mean, he's he's, he's, I would say a de 623 00:34:49,710 --> 00:34:54,540 facto dictator.

It's unAmerican. 626 00:34:57,990 --> 00:35:00,810 The President spoke after an all night mera. have a debate in the 627 00:35:00,810 --> 00:35:03,570 Senate left early morning passage of an emergency National 628 00:35:03,570 --> 00:35:07,980 Security spending purchase the bill as amended passes, it would 629 00:35:07,980 --> 00:35:11,190 provide billions military assistance to Ukraine, Israel 630 00:35:11,190 --> 00:35:15,150 and Taiwan, but says nothing about US Mexico border security. 631 00:35:15,330 --> 00:35:18,270 And that's why House Speaker Mike Johnson says he won't bring 632 00:35:18,270 --> 00:35:19,740 it up for a vote. That 633 00:35:19,740 --> 00:35:22,560 helps security begins with border security. We have said 634 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:24,180 that all House Republicans 635 00:35:24,180 --> 00:35:26,910 are increasingly taking cues from Trump who has said they 636 00:35:26,910 --> 00:35:30,000 shouldn't support any border security deal that could benefit 637 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:31,500 Democrats. President Biden, 638 00:35:31,530 --> 00:35:34,440 Adam Curry: now he's taking cues is Trump lied to in his ear 639 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:37,260 like, hey, oops, like, Hey, Mike, 640 00:35:37,350 --> 00:35:40,470 Unknown: don't do it. Man. This is your IFP talking, Mike. 641 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:44,910 Adam Curry: What is going on with this reporting? Crap. The 642 00:35:44,910 --> 00:35:48,300 Unknown: president today said the stakes are bigger than that. 643 00:35:48,390 --> 00:35:48,690 And I 644 00:35:48,690 --> 00:35:52,260 say to the House members, House Republicans, you got to decide 645 00:35:53,010 --> 00:35:56,190 are you gonna stand up for freedom? We're gonna side with 646 00:35:56,190 --> 00:36:02,130 Terran tyranny. We stand with America or Trump. Meanwhile, 647 00:36:02,130 --> 00:36:04,350 tonight, House Republicans are planning to vote again to 648 00:36:04,350 --> 00:36:08,010 impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas in 649 00:36:08,010 --> 00:36:10,740 opposition to his handling of border security. The similar 650 00:36:10,740 --> 00:36:13,950 vote failed last week. And if they succeed this time, my orcas 651 00:36:13,950 --> 00:36:18,480 would be the first Cabinet Secretary impeached since 1876. 652 00:36:18,660 --> 00:36:20,730 Adam Curry: The cynical thing about this bill was they're also 653 00:36:20,730 --> 00:36:23,790 giving money to Palestine. We're giving money to both sides. 654 00:36:24,570 --> 00:36:26,400 Yeah, this is great. 655 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:29,490 John C Dvorak: It's our taxpayers money. We got to 656 00:36:30,510 --> 00:36:33,870 spending it wisely and fixing it. No way at all over the 657 00:36:33,870 --> 00:36:34,890 place. It's not 658 00:36:34,890 --> 00:36:37,830 Adam Curry: taxpayer money, John, that's not true. No, 659 00:36:37,830 --> 00:36:40,770 John C Dvorak: I've felt we're around about whatever money is 660 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,190 we're print missing from the coffers. It's taxpayers money. 661 00:36:44,220 --> 00:36:44,910 Adam Curry: Yeah, we're just 662 00:36:46,830 --> 00:36:49,800 John C Dvorak: take a look. Let's take a look at CBC 663 00:36:49,830 --> 00:36:50,370 reporting. 664 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,810 Adam Curry: It's an investment. Okay. It's an investment in our 665 00:36:54,810 --> 00:36:56,100 national security. 666 00:36:58,770 --> 00:37:02,340 Unknown: Oh, nice. Standing before an energetic crowd in a 667 00:37:02,340 --> 00:37:06,330 small city in South Carolina. Donald Trump veered from his 668 00:37:06,330 --> 00:37:09,780 prepared remarks at one of his reelection campaign rallies, 669 00:37:10,050 --> 00:37:13,860 telling a story about a conversation he says he had with 670 00:37:13,860 --> 00:37:17,340 an unnamed world leader about whether the US would come to the 671 00:37:17,340 --> 00:37:20,940 defense of a NATO ally in the face of Russian aggression. 672 00:37:21,150 --> 00:37:24,810 One of the presidents of a big country stood up said, Well, 673 00:37:24,810 --> 00:37:29,160 sir, if we don't pay and were attacked by Russia, will you 674 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:32,640 protect us? I said you didn't pay your delinquent 675 00:37:32,850 --> 00:37:36,090 in this moment. Trump mischaracterizes how NATO 676 00:37:36,090 --> 00:37:39,990 funding works, but goes on to suggest that unless an ally 677 00:37:39,990 --> 00:37:43,890 meets its defense spending targets, that country is not 678 00:37:43,890 --> 00:37:46,560 worth defending against Russian advances. 679 00:37:46,620 --> 00:37:49,980 No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to 680 00:37:49,980 --> 00:37:51,990 do whatever the hell they want. You got to bang 681 00:37:52,230 --> 00:37:54,810 Trump statement is a direct reflection of 682 00:37:56,070 --> 00:37:58,950 John C Dvorak: where did Trump ever say it's not worth 683 00:37:59,070 --> 00:38:03,630 defending? That's what she said. And she we heard again, which 684 00:38:03,630 --> 00:38:06,780 were laughable, by the way his comments were semi humorous, and 685 00:38:06,780 --> 00:38:10,170 she characterize them as telling a guy You're not worth 686 00:38:10,170 --> 00:38:11,460 defending. He never says that. 687 00:38:12,300 --> 00:38:15,570 Adam Curry: And he meant it. It wasn't a joke, John, he meant 688 00:38:15,570 --> 00:38:18,240 it. I heard the President said he meant it. That's the crazy, 689 00:38:18,720 --> 00:38:18,930 but 690 00:38:18,930 --> 00:38:22,710 Unknown: goes on to suggest that unless an ally meets its defense 691 00:38:22,710 --> 00:38:26,790 spending targets, that country is not worth defending against 692 00:38:26,790 --> 00:38:27,960 Russian advances. 693 00:38:27,990 --> 00:38:28,920 Adam Curry: Good catch, 694 00:38:28,950 --> 00:38:31,830 Unknown: no, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage 695 00:38:31,830 --> 00:38:34,290 them to do whatever the hell they want. You gotta Fang. 696 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:34,950 Trump's 697 00:38:34,950 --> 00:38:37,500 statement is a direct contradiction of the NATO 698 00:38:37,500 --> 00:38:42,060 principle that an attack on one is an attack on all Canada is 699 00:38:42,060 --> 00:38:45,120 among the NATO country members that Trump would consider not 700 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:51,240 worthy action, as it does not spend 2% of its GDP on defense 701 00:38:51,390 --> 00:38:56,040 Raceline target, only 11 of NATO's 31 members actually hit 702 00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:59,160 defense funding goals. Spokesperson for Canada's 703 00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:02,250 Defence Minister Bill Blair did not say anything critical of 704 00:39:02,250 --> 00:39:05,550 Trump, but reaffirmed Canada's commitment to the International 705 00:39:05,550 --> 00:39:09,570 Security Alliance. None of this will likely matter to Trump's 706 00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:10,410 supporters. 707 00:39:10,950 --> 00:39:14,760 God bless you all God bless you get out and vote. He left 708 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:18,420 Saturday's rally to huge applause was defended by key 709 00:39:18,420 --> 00:39:21,330 members of the Republican establishment. Trump's pro 710 00:39:21,330 --> 00:39:24,510 Russia statements are influencing lawmakers pro 711 00:39:24,510 --> 00:39:28,380 Russian opposition to support for Ukraine is stalling. 712 00:39:30,270 --> 00:39:31,770 Control for all Russian 713 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:35,910 John C Dvorak: pro Russian. Exactly specifically. Do you 714 00:39:35,910 --> 00:39:39,210 have any indication in there that are Euro Russian? 715 00:39:39,240 --> 00:39:41,700 Adam Curry: Are you trying to tell me that the media is trying 716 00:39:41,700 --> 00:39:44,100 to mind control us with these thoughts 717 00:39:44,190 --> 00:39:45,690 John C Dvorak: and they're trying to do something here 718 00:39:47,340 --> 00:39:48,990 without it left 719 00:39:48,990 --> 00:39:52,200 Unknown: Saturday's rally to huge applause and was defended 720 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,560 by key members of the Republican establishment. Trump's pro 721 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:59,340 Russia statements are influencing lawmakers Republican 722 00:39:59,340 --> 00:40:02,700 opposition to support for Ukraine is growing, stalling the 723 00:40:02,700 --> 00:40:06,330 passage of billions of dollars in aid packages, which still 724 00:40:06,330 --> 00:40:07,470 remain in limbo. 725 00:40:07,770 --> 00:40:12,750 Adam Curry: So the whole, you know, promoting pro Putin 726 00:40:12,750 --> 00:40:15,540 promoting Putin. There was another one that I caught very 727 00:40:15,540 --> 00:40:18,990 short clip here, a British journalist. I don't know why we 728 00:40:18,990 --> 00:40:23,550 let him in Congress lie me. We let some lie me Britt come into 729 00:40:23,550 --> 00:40:27,930 Congress, and a cost Marjorie Taylor agree. And he had a 730 00:40:27,930 --> 00:40:29,190 better one. David 731 00:40:29,190 --> 00:40:31,920 Unknown: Cameron says that you should vote through funding for 732 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:34,830 Ukraine. What do you say to that? I think he tried to 733 00:40:34,830 --> 00:40:38,430 compare us to Hitler also. And if that's the kind of language 734 00:40:38,430 --> 00:40:41,280 he wants to use, I really have nothing to say to him, 735 00:40:41,490 --> 00:40:45,450 he like can do to an appeaser to Hitler in novel to include 736 00:40:45,450 --> 00:40:47,070 funding for Ukraine, or, you 737 00:40:47,070 --> 00:40:49,860 Adam Curry: know, Pisa for Putin and appeaser for Putin. There it 738 00:40:49,860 --> 00:40:50,220 is. 739 00:40:50,250 --> 00:40:53,880 Unknown: I think that I really don't care what David Cameron 740 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:57,660 has to say. I think that's rude name calling, and I don't 741 00:40:57,660 --> 00:41:00,420 appreciate that type of language. And David Cameron 742 00:41:00,420 --> 00:41:01,950 needs to worry about his own country, 743 00:41:02,100 --> 00:41:04,500 and frankly, he can kiss my ass. What do you think? 744 00:41:08,430 --> 00:41:10,950 Adam Curry: I love that. I don't like to rude language but kiss 745 00:41:10,950 --> 00:41:12,810 my ass. Yeah. 746 00:41:13,980 --> 00:41:16,320 John C Dvorak: To play this is the Ukraine. This clip as 747 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:18,450 Ukrainian aid bill stalled, 748 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:21,390 Unknown: House Republicans again highlighting their focus on 749 00:41:21,390 --> 00:41:25,470 securing the southern border. It comes as the Senate passed a $95 750 00:41:25,500 --> 00:41:28,740 billion security package that doesn't address the record 751 00:41:28,740 --> 00:41:31,980 influx of illegal immigrants. Our Washington correspondent 752 00:41:31,980 --> 00:41:34,860 Luiz Eduardo Martinez has more details on the current 753 00:41:34,860 --> 00:41:37,050 legislative impasse in Congress. 754 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:41,280 It is February the 14th. Valentine's day and day to 755 00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:44,370 celebrate love louder according to Speaker of the House Mike 756 00:41:44,370 --> 00:41:47,880 Johnson, New Orleans are not feeling loved by their President 757 00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:50,760 Oh Love House Republican leadership emphasize that they 758 00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,490 won't be forced to act on the foreign aid bill. The Senate 759 00:41:53,490 --> 00:41:57,420 passed Tuesday until Americans concern over the border crisis 760 00:41:57,420 --> 00:41:59,160 are addressed. Senator 761 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:01,620 McConnell and I've spoken about this in Frank sessions. And let 762 00:42:01,620 --> 00:42:04,530 me be clear here again this morning. The Republican led 763 00:42:04,530 --> 00:42:07,890 house will not be jammed or forced into passing a foreign 764 00:42:07,890 --> 00:42:11,610 aid bill that was opposed by most Republican senators and 765 00:42:11,610 --> 00:42:15,150 does nothing to secure our own border. 766 00:42:16,020 --> 00:42:19,050 During back to back press conferences. Congressman Pete 767 00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:23,310 Aguilar, chair of the House Democratic Caucus, urged Johnson 768 00:42:23,310 --> 00:42:27,450 to bring the Senate's $95 foreign aid package to a vote on 769 00:42:27,450 --> 00:42:32,220 the House floor. Aguilar says Ukraine and other US allies are 770 00:42:32,220 --> 00:42:35,010 in urgent need of assistance. It's 771 00:42:35,010 --> 00:42:38,160 very clear if you want to push back against Putin. We want to 772 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:41,850 help our national security put this bill, this bipartisan bill 773 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:42,690 on the floor of 774 00:42:42,810 --> 00:42:45,840 the White House says National Security Adviser had similar 775 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:46,530 comments. 776 00:42:46,980 --> 00:42:49,890 All I can say is that each passing day each passing week, 777 00:42:50,010 --> 00:42:53,100 the cost of inaction from the United States that's being borne 778 00:42:53,100 --> 00:42:56,640 on the front lines by brave Ukrainians is rising. And that's 779 00:42:56,640 --> 00:43:00,390 why we so urgently need to pass this bill urgently. 780 00:43:00,450 --> 00:43:03,120 Adam Curry: urgently. Please send 781 00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:03,780 John C Dvorak: money out there. 782 00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:05,190 Adam Curry: You know, if you remember, 783 00:43:05,700 --> 00:43:08,700 John C Dvorak: by the way, I in my opinion, this bill would pass 784 00:43:08,700 --> 00:43:13,170 if if Johnson would put it up? Or vote for a vote. That's why 785 00:43:13,170 --> 00:43:13,860 he's not doing it? 786 00:43:13,890 --> 00:43:20,310 Adam Curry: Of course not. Course not. Do you remember, we 787 00:43:20,310 --> 00:43:24,210 were talking about Eric Schmidt, the ex Google guy and he did a 788 00:43:24,210 --> 00:43:29,670 big thing. On sound was a CNN, he was talking about it, he 789 00:43:29,670 --> 00:43:34,800 started a drone company. And he says this is the next level of 790 00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:38,520 warfare. It's all about the drones, the drones, the drones. 791 00:43:38,970 --> 00:43:41,400 I think there's something to what he's doing. He's a 792 00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:45,990 brilliant man, this Eric Schmidt. He is listen to the 793 00:43:45,990 --> 00:43:47,820 Dutch defense minister. 794 00:43:47,850 --> 00:43:50,190 Unknown: We know of course, drones are very important in 795 00:43:50,190 --> 00:43:54,270 this war. So while we're seeing trench warfare, and we're also 796 00:43:54,270 --> 00:43:57,030 seeing the drums and the role of the plant and the role they play 797 00:43:57,030 --> 00:44:02,490 in on the battlefield. So apart from if 60s ammunition spare 798 00:44:02,490 --> 00:44:06,300 parts, drone is very important to Ukraine right now. And we 799 00:44:06,300 --> 00:44:11,430 need to scale up. We need to make sure that they have the 800 00:44:11,430 --> 00:44:15,180 number of drones that they need, but also drones with the right 801 00:44:15,180 --> 00:44:20,040 capabilities. So based on what Ukraine is learning also on 802 00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:26,280 frontline, and that's why we are joining the drone coalition that 803 00:44:26,490 --> 00:44:29,850 Ukraine has started together with Latvia together with other 804 00:44:29,850 --> 00:44:32,760 countries to make sure that we do just that to increase 805 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:36,750 production to use the latest technology and to provide 806 00:44:36,780 --> 00:44:38,370 exactly with what Ukraine needs 807 00:44:42,870 --> 00:44:47,580 Adam Curry: maybe it's marine drones, its air drones. Its 808 00:44:47,580 --> 00:44:50,400 drone drone drone drone, everything's a drone. 809 00:44:50,430 --> 00:44:51,300 Everything's yeah, 810 00:44:51,570 --> 00:44:53,730 John C Dvorak: there's money to be made in the drone. one more 811 00:44:53,730 --> 00:44:54,990 clip the plan is NATO 812 00:44:55,050 --> 00:44:58,080 Adam Curry: big money in drones. All right before you go to 813 00:44:58,080 --> 00:44:58,620 drones 814 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:01,890 John C Dvorak: You were listening all these reactions to 815 00:45:01,890 --> 00:45:05,670 Trump's commentary about NATO and always wants this summit. 816 00:45:06,240 --> 00:45:09,660 This is a this is an interesting little clip. This is just the 817 00:45:09,660 --> 00:45:16,650 public leaving Trump's rally discussing this matter the way 818 00:45:16,650 --> 00:45:19,470 and I think this is what the public thinks, but some 819 00:45:19,470 --> 00:45:22,350 Unknown: Trump supporters were outside today's rally told us 820 00:45:22,350 --> 00:45:25,980 just now that they think Trump was not wrong and calling out 821 00:45:25,980 --> 00:45:29,250 some countries who are not paying their fair share, watch. 822 00:45:29,460 --> 00:45:29,700 They've 823 00:45:29,700 --> 00:45:32,100 got to pay and get to be a part of something you got to pay your 824 00:45:32,100 --> 00:45:36,270 dues. I think that's fair. And I think they should. I don't see 825 00:45:36,270 --> 00:45:38,340 anything wrong with what he said. He's 826 00:45:38,340 --> 00:45:41,490 got too much too big of a lead. She should just drop out. 827 00:45:42,870 --> 00:45:47,340 Adam Curry: Daily, Haley Haley, but the military complex is 828 00:45:47,340 --> 00:45:49,350 being promoted by Trump. 829 00:45:49,650 --> 00:45:54,600 John C Dvorak: The term Yeah, that's the irony. The term fair 830 00:45:54,600 --> 00:46:00,390 share. Yep. Which Biden loves to use, I think should be used 831 00:46:00,390 --> 00:46:04,020 constantly about this commentary that Trump had to say. 832 00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:07,020 Adam Curry: Yeah, but this is everyone's the military 833 00:46:07,020 --> 00:46:11,580 industrial complex has power. They have power, man, they got 834 00:46:11,580 --> 00:46:14,910 power over everybody over all these nit numbnuts 835 00:46:15,300 --> 00:46:19,500 John C Dvorak: or everybody but except for the Big Pharma. Yeah, 836 00:46:19,500 --> 00:46:24,150 well, I'm not sure we're in bed together. And and the shot deer 837 00:46:24,570 --> 00:46:24,960 in 838 00:46:26,010 --> 00:46:27,780 Adam Curry: the interest. something interesting happened. 839 00:46:27,810 --> 00:46:31,020 You know, we've been talking about the Democrats actually 840 00:46:31,020 --> 00:46:32,730 wanting Trump to win 841 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:37,860 John C Dvorak: here has one of our sub text theses. Yes. Well, 842 00:46:37,860 --> 00:46:41,250 Adam Curry: I have a have another data point. Brett 843 00:46:41,250 --> 00:46:45,270 Weinstein fresh from his appearance on Tucker. He's going 844 00:46:45,270 --> 00:46:48,210 around the world, you know, he went to the Darien Gap. And he 845 00:46:48,210 --> 00:46:51,000 came back and said, Oh, we're being invaded by Chinese as 846 00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:55,590 military age men. Even though I think we've successfully proven 847 00:46:55,980 --> 00:46:59,610 that there's huge unemployment in China and the rich Chinese 848 00:46:59,610 --> 00:47:03,000 who can or the wealthy or the middle class who can travel to 849 00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:05,850 other countries or hopscotching around they take an Uber at the 850 00:47:05,850 --> 00:47:08,970 last minute. They come through the fence. Yeah, they come to 851 00:47:08,970 --> 00:47:09,450 the police. 852 00:47:09,450 --> 00:47:13,800 John C Dvorak: We did nothing wrong with having 10s of 1000s 853 00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:19,440 of smart Chinese coming into the country to boost our IQ. Yes. 854 00:47:20,820 --> 00:47:23,940 Adam Curry: But Weinstein is now on the and I actually texted 855 00:47:23,940 --> 00:47:26,400 with Joe about this. And he says no, we're being invaded, said, 856 00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:31,350 No, we're not. But it was this little bit of Weinstein's 857 00:47:32,100 --> 00:47:36,360 appearance that really said, Oh, we're on the right track. 858 00:47:36,390 --> 00:47:39,990 Unknown: Well, I don't think we're there yet. But I but I 859 00:47:39,990 --> 00:47:43,290 don't think on the basis of the time he would have his 860 00:47:43,290 --> 00:47:47,340 temperament or his ability to build a team. You know, Trump is 861 00:47:47,340 --> 00:47:51,900 kind of a one man show. And his team building ability, I don't 862 00:47:51,900 --> 00:47:54,750 think is enough to solve the problem either. But the punch 863 00:47:54,750 --> 00:48:00,570 line of that is, if Kennedy can't do it, for whatever 864 00:48:00,570 --> 00:48:06,030 reason, if politics gets in the way, we still have to get 865 00:48:06,210 --> 00:48:09,930 whatever that cabal is out of power immediately. This could 866 00:48:09,930 --> 00:48:14,310 not be more of an emergency. We've seen through COVID how 867 00:48:14,310 --> 00:48:17,100 dangerous these people are, how little they care about our well 868 00:48:17,100 --> 00:48:22,350 being. And we have to rally around whatever it is that 869 00:48:22,560 --> 00:48:28,590 addresses this problem. And, you know, as much as I'm not a 870 00:48:28,590 --> 00:48:32,880 believer that Trump on his own can do the job. I would far 871 00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:36,630 prefer him to another standard bearer of that Cabal, the cabal 872 00:48:36,630 --> 00:48:38,970 is too dangerous. And I say this, as you know, I'm a 873 00:48:38,970 --> 00:48:42,420 lifelong Democrat. Right? This is my party that I'm telling you 874 00:48:42,420 --> 00:48:45,840 cannot be trusted with governance. But that's where we 875 00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:46,140 are. 876 00:48:47,310 --> 00:48:49,590 Adam Curry: That's a big show. It's a big show to be saying 877 00:48:49,590 --> 00:48:51,660 that kind of stuff so big. Yeah, 878 00:48:51,660 --> 00:48:53,880 John C Dvorak: he's definitely going to find himself into a 879 00:48:53,970 --> 00:48:57,360 heap of trouble is like Matt Taibbi has been making the 880 00:48:57,360 --> 00:49:00,690 rounds are with all kinds of interesting stories. But, you 881 00:49:00,690 --> 00:49:04,650 know, if you're a Democrat during within the last decade, 882 00:49:04,860 --> 00:49:07,680 and you leave the party, this would happen to Trump. Trump, I 883 00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:11,220 think is one of the examples of this. It's more of a cult than 884 00:49:11,220 --> 00:49:15,330 anything else, you leave, they go after you they don't go after 885 00:49:15,330 --> 00:49:19,560 you. They don't go after me because I left a democrat party 886 00:49:19,590 --> 00:49:25,410 in this late 70s. So I'm, I'm exempt. But the recent Democrat 887 00:49:25,410 --> 00:49:30,270 Party, people are all in a in a call. He just said kibali Just I 888 00:49:30,270 --> 00:49:33,630 almost said cabal but a cult is what I really mean it because 889 00:49:33,630 --> 00:49:36,360 when you leave a cult, they go after you that's what all cults 890 00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:41,820 do. Yeah. And so Weinstein is in for a heap of trouble. Just by 891 00:49:41,820 --> 00:49:45,450 that that clip right there is gonna get him into hot water. 892 00:49:45,540 --> 00:49:46,800 You watch Well, 893 00:49:47,310 --> 00:49:50,130 Adam Curry: he's, he's, you know, the I think he's very 894 00:49:50,130 --> 00:49:53,610 malleable. You know, he's these these words are not just his 895 00:49:53,610 --> 00:49:57,510 people are talking to him. You know, the Dream Team. The Dream 896 00:49:57,510 --> 00:50:00,870 Team is talking to him. Matt Lee are Buddy in the State 897 00:50:00,870 --> 00:50:05,250 Department is back. And it's always fun to have Matt Lee back 898 00:50:05,250 --> 00:50:07,890 on deck. I don't know why it's been so long. We haven't heard 899 00:50:07,890 --> 00:50:12,690 from him. And now we have President Biden saying, oh, you 900 00:50:12,690 --> 00:50:19,620 know, this Israel response was over the top. It's over the top. 901 00:50:19,620 --> 00:50:24,330 All right. And I guess it was solid. And maybe who said, Well, 902 00:50:24,330 --> 00:50:27,150 you know, we we've got many levers. We told them Israelis 903 00:50:27,150 --> 00:50:30,570 what we're gonna do, we told them what to do. We were mercker 904 00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:32,640 Murca. And Matt leaves have none of it. 905 00:50:32,670 --> 00:50:34,860 Unknown: What lovers? Have you used? 906 00:50:35,010 --> 00:50:39,690 So we have used diplomatically levers, the Secretary, that 907 00:50:39,690 --> 00:50:43,230 means, Victoria and the president and you and Kirby and 908 00:50:43,590 --> 00:50:46,980 whoever else standing up and saying, wagging your finger and 909 00:50:46,980 --> 00:50:49,650 saying that that's not really leverage. 910 00:50:49,980 --> 00:50:56,130 We have engaged with them on a at a multitude of levels at this 911 00:50:56,130 --> 00:50:58,860 administration. And and, as I 912 00:50:59,700 --> 00:51:04,620 Adam Curry: you could literally be in Matt Lee's chair. I love 913 00:51:04,860 --> 00:51:07,620 that multitude. What does that mean a multitude administration? 914 00:51:07,830 --> 00:51:11,790 Unknown: And and as I kind of you look at the list that we 915 00:51:11,790 --> 00:51:15,180 just went through with whomever we have seen them take steps at 916 00:51:15,180 --> 00:51:19,020 our urging that have had real, real tangible impact with but 917 00:51:19,020 --> 00:51:21,690 they have not been enough. But what levers have you 918 00:51:21,690 --> 00:51:23,040 actually, I 919 00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:27,570 think the that when the United States of America stands up and 920 00:51:27,570 --> 00:51:29,130 says something publicly it matters? 921 00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:30,060 Adam Curry: No, it doesn't. 922 00:51:31,020 --> 00:51:35,130 Unknown: But you had, and we haven't said no. And we've been 923 00:51:35,610 --> 00:51:40,380 any consequences. My to my point, we have seen money, or 924 00:51:40,380 --> 00:51:45,930 military systems. But we have been the policies we have 925 00:51:45,930 --> 00:51:48,090 pursued, we have seen improvements along these 926 00:51:48,090 --> 00:51:52,530 specific areas. Okay, we've seen tangible improvements. Again, 927 00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:53,640 asking you 928 00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:54,780 what the average 929 00:51:54,780 --> 00:51:59,580 has also, I want the average have you brought to bear I just 930 00:51:59,580 --> 00:52:02,100 went through what have you gone? I think the words of the 931 00:52:02,100 --> 00:52:04,470 President United States the words of the Secretary of State 932 00:52:04,470 --> 00:52:09,420 matter and holding the top and we have seen, we have seen the 933 00:52:09,450 --> 00:52:13,770 Government of Israel respond to not always in the way that we 934 00:52:13,770 --> 00:52:16,530 want not always to the degree that we want, or to the level 935 00:52:16,530 --> 00:52:19,440 that we want, but the the our interventions, we believe have 936 00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:21,570 had an impact, and we will continue to pursue them because 937 00:52:21,570 --> 00:52:23,040 we we believe they do. 938 00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:26,010 Adam Curry: What Matt Lee is pointing out is that Israel has 939 00:52:26,010 --> 00:52:29,670 some huge leverage on the administration. And they have 940 00:52:29,670 --> 00:52:35,460 nothing Well, we told them you calm down no culus burgers in 941 00:52:35,460 --> 00:52:39,180 the Netherlands, who interestingly have a large part 942 00:52:39,180 --> 00:52:43,530 to play with the F 35 supply chain. They took a totally 943 00:52:43,530 --> 00:52:47,070 different track. And the same defense minister we heard 944 00:52:47,070 --> 00:52:52,380 earlier all in on drones for Ukraine. ropes, no more F 35 945 00:52:52,380 --> 00:52:53,490 parts for Israel 946 00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:56,280 Unknown: and appeals court in the Netherlands has ordered the 947 00:52:56,280 --> 00:53:01,290 government to stop F 35 parts deliveries to Israel, the ruling 948 00:53:01,380 --> 00:53:05,250 takes effect within the next seven days. And for more on this 949 00:53:05,250 --> 00:53:08,280 story, we can go across to Fanon, Van Ted standing by at 950 00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:12,330 the Hague for now. What exactly is this ruling? And will it have 951 00:53:12,330 --> 00:53:14,040 an impact? So 952 00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:17,880 there was an audible gostilna in the court as this verdict came 953 00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:20,790 through this quote saying that the Netherlands needs to 954 00:53:20,790 --> 00:53:25,890 reconsider its export license for those F 35 parts to Israel, 955 00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:29,130 because there is a serious risk of violations to international 956 00:53:29,130 --> 00:53:33,810 humanitarian law. And thus, this is how the minister should rule. 957 00:53:34,080 --> 00:53:37,290 Now this is centered around the small town of rooms dressed in 958 00:53:37,290 --> 00:53:41,640 Robins here, which is where the F 35 regional warehouse is, 959 00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:45,300 which is where all European partners have the F 35 program 960 00:53:45,330 --> 00:53:50,670 and Israel are supplied with our F 35 Spare parts. Now, the 961 00:53:50,670 --> 00:53:54,000 minister had argued that she had read looked at this general 962 00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:58,770 export license which was given in 2016 after October 7, but in 963 00:53:58,770 --> 00:54:01,860 light of Israel's right to self defense and political 964 00:54:01,860 --> 00:54:05,070 considerations such as the Dutch relationship with the United 965 00:54:05,070 --> 00:54:09,540 States and Israel had decided to continue exporting those parts 966 00:54:09,540 --> 00:54:12,330 the judges here now said that that was the wrong decision. 967 00:54:12,330 --> 00:54:14,700 They say it is clear that there are violations to international 968 00:54:14,700 --> 00:54:17,910 humanitarian law taking place in Gaza due to the large number of 969 00:54:17,910 --> 00:54:21,120 civilian casualties there including children and that 970 00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:25,920 within seven days or export of parts to the F 35 jet to Israel 971 00:54:25,920 --> 00:54:26,520 must stop 972 00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:30,060 Adam Curry: do they went in overruled through the courts? 973 00:54:30,060 --> 00:54:32,790 You're done? This is very interesting. 974 00:54:33,870 --> 00:54:35,880 John C Dvorak: You know, got it caused some problems of back 975 00:54:35,880 --> 00:54:37,020 channel well, 976 00:54:37,140 --> 00:54:39,510 Adam Curry: it's about time for some of that Epstein video 977 00:54:39,510 --> 00:54:45,090 footage to come out. If they're gonna if there is blackmail 978 00:54:45,090 --> 00:54:48,900 going on. Which Which seems apparent. Why else with the 979 00:54:48,900 --> 00:54:51,870 United States who Oh, we said it's over the top and that'll 980 00:54:51,870 --> 00:54:58,110 slow them down. No. So is everyone all afraid? Oh, they 981 00:54:58,110 --> 00:55:02,670 might. I mean, it's time for some more Epstein client lists 982 00:55:02,700 --> 00:55:03,600 stories 983 00:55:05,190 --> 00:55:07,200 John C Dvorak: yeah well sure they get plenty of Pete dictum 984 00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:08,700 lists must be a mile long 985 00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:12,030 Adam Curry: yeah but my point is that whenever they need to 986 00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:14,550 John C Dvorak: get everyone anyone needs something to get 987 00:55:14,550 --> 00:55:15,630 done yeah 988 00:55:15,660 --> 00:55:17,730 Adam Curry: then then all of a sudden they go oh god I've 989 00:55:17,730 --> 00:55:20,310 released another client was How about just do some pictures so 990 00:55:20,310 --> 00:55:24,570 we can call them AI generated Come on, come on, let's do it. 991 00:55:24,630 --> 00:55:29,190 Let's spice up the show people. I'm tired of waiting. 992 00:55:31,530 --> 00:55:33,660 John C Dvorak: Which is about have a couple of little side 993 00:55:33,780 --> 00:55:37,230 bits here. While I do have this some Gaza news, so I'm gonna 994 00:55:37,230 --> 00:55:40,170 play these business of funny stuff here that doesn't get in 995 00:55:40,170 --> 00:55:44,130 the mainstream. So I got it from NTD and this is the two 996 00:55:44,130 --> 00:55:48,150 hostages, no deal and TD clips and there's those three of these 997 00:55:48,150 --> 00:55:48,630 clips. 998 00:55:49,530 --> 00:55:53,550 Unknown: This is in di D things are heating up across Israel's 999 00:55:53,550 --> 00:55:57,060 northern border with Lebanon and an Israeli official says they 1000 00:55:57,060 --> 00:56:00,720 are preparing for war in the north. This comes as the Israeli 1001 00:56:00,720 --> 00:56:04,650 military says that to Al Jazeera reporters are also Hamas 1002 00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:09,240 terrorists entities Jason Perry has the latest on Israel 1003 00:56:09,240 --> 00:56:12,240 recently released footage of a mission in which Israeli 1004 00:56:12,240 --> 00:56:16,740 soldiers rescue two hostages. Israel said they used explosives 1005 00:56:16,740 --> 00:56:22,590 to breach the building and heavy gunfire followed. Israeli troops 1006 00:56:22,590 --> 00:56:25,410 were then seen going up the stairs to the second floor of 1007 00:56:25,410 --> 00:56:28,950 the building where they rescued the hostages. Those two former 1008 00:56:28,950 --> 00:56:30,870 hostages said this on Wednesday. 1009 00:56:32,070 --> 00:56:35,850 I want to say thank you to all the people of Israel and to the 1010 00:56:35,850 --> 00:56:40,710 security forces who brought us home recording system. I want to 1011 00:56:40,710 --> 00:56:44,220 say thank you to all those who participated in this complex 1012 00:56:44,220 --> 00:56:48,660 operation to the IDF to the security forces to all the 1013 00:56:48,660 --> 00:56:52,020 soldiers who made us really feel that we were being brought home. 1014 00:56:52,470 --> 00:56:55,740 And both of them said they hoped that remaining hostages would be 1015 00:56:55,740 --> 00:56:59,520 released and in regard to a possible ceasefire to release 1016 00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:03,810 the over 100 hostages who remain in the Gaza Strip. Officials 1017 00:57:03,810 --> 00:57:07,770 from the United States, Egypt, Israel and Qatar met in Egypt on 1018 00:57:07,770 --> 00:57:11,130 Tuesday for ceasefire negotiations. But according to 1019 00:57:11,130 --> 00:57:15,030 reports, no deal was reached. And apparently there was not 1020 00:57:15,030 --> 00:57:18,180 even a date announced for their next meeting to continue the 1021 00:57:18,180 --> 00:57:18,810 talks. 1022 00:57:20,220 --> 00:57:21,570 John C Dvorak: Now there's something about these two 1023 00:57:21,570 --> 00:57:24,960 hostages, which kind of and it was brought to the four by the 1024 00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:27,990 what this guy said one of the hostage he says, hey, they 1025 00:57:27,990 --> 00:57:30,600 brought us and made us feel like we were actually going back 1026 00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:31,230 home. 1027 00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:36,120 Adam Curry: It was I think that if it was all an act, it was it 1028 00:57:36,120 --> 00:57:39,060 was meant to obfuscate the obvious bombing that happened on 1029 00:57:39,360 --> 00:57:40,650 on Super Bowl Sunday. 1030 00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:44,820 John C Dvorak: Well, it would did definitely did that. But why 1031 00:57:44,820 --> 00:57:47,970 are these two hostages? You know? It just doesn't make 1032 00:57:47,970 --> 00:57:51,120 sense. If you had these two guys, out in the middle of 1033 00:57:51,120 --> 00:57:53,550 nowhere, they're not with the rest of the hostages. So you 1034 00:57:53,550 --> 00:57:56,250 can't you know, where are the hostages? And why are these two 1035 00:57:56,250 --> 00:57:59,340 guys where they are? And why are they saying well, it's it was 1036 00:57:59,340 --> 00:58:01,980 great. We got back home and made us feel like we were really 1037 00:58:01,980 --> 00:58:06,210 coming home. And what does that mean? This whole hostage thing 1038 00:58:06,210 --> 00:58:09,240 was just a scam of some sort. You're 1039 00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:13,710 Adam Curry: gonna get us banned. The the Israel is now banning 1040 00:58:13,710 --> 00:58:16,890 foreign media or they're threatening to know me. There's 1041 00:58:16,890 --> 00:58:19,350 no media here, stop reporting. And 1042 00:58:19,350 --> 00:58:22,350 John C Dvorak: so the thing that which brings us to clip two 1043 00:58:22,890 --> 00:58:27,540 there, this if this is true, which makes sense that it might 1044 00:58:27,540 --> 00:58:31,050 be because I think the unrar thing that UN agencies also 1045 00:58:31,350 --> 00:58:34,200 Adam Curry: thought was very suspicious. Yeah, just like the 1046 00:58:34,200 --> 00:58:35,790 White Helmets. And 1047 00:58:35,790 --> 00:58:38,430 John C Dvorak: this is this part, which did mainstream media 1048 00:58:38,430 --> 00:58:41,520 in this country hasn't touched. But I think it's definitely 1049 00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:43,290 worth the discussion. Part two of this 1050 00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:46,710 Unknown: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Hamas 1051 00:58:46,710 --> 00:58:50,640 didn't offer anything new in their proposal. Hamas apparently 1052 00:58:50,640 --> 00:58:54,300 still demands that Israel in the war completely before they will 1053 00:58:54,300 --> 00:58:55,680 release the hostages. 1054 00:58:56,760 --> 00:59:00,810 Ai insists that Hamas should abandon its delusional demands 1055 00:59:00,840 --> 00:59:03,720 and when it does, we will be able to move forward 1056 00:59:03,990 --> 00:59:08,100 and in another development this week and IDF spokesman to Arab 1057 00:59:08,100 --> 00:59:12,150 media said in a statement on X that Israeli forces recovered a 1058 00:59:12,150 --> 00:59:15,870 laptop in the Gaza Strip, and pictures on the laptop showed 1059 00:59:15,870 --> 00:59:20,160 that an Al Jazeera reporter is also a senior military operative 1060 00:59:20,160 --> 00:59:24,120 and the Hamas terrorists. And on Wednesday, the IDF spokesman 1061 00:59:24,120 --> 00:59:27,840 posted a picture of another alleged Al Jazeera reporter who 1062 00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:31,560 filmed himself in an Israeli village during the October 7 1063 00:59:31,590 --> 00:59:35,010 massacre. We reached out to AlJazeera for comment, but we 1064 00:59:35,010 --> 00:59:36,630 didn't hear back before airtime. 1065 00:59:36,690 --> 00:59:39,510 Adam Curry: All right, we must remember a couple things. One, 1066 00:59:40,230 --> 00:59:44,190 we still have no resolution and it quickly gets forgotten. As to 1067 00:59:44,190 --> 00:59:49,560 how this this fence this border, the security fence could be so 1068 00:59:49,560 --> 00:59:54,240 violated and broken through with hours of a lack of response. 1069 00:59:54,990 --> 00:59:57,390 Because that's just fallen off the radar. We don't talk about 1070 00:59:57,390 --> 01:00:03,210 that anymore. How do we do well we do But so that just that 1071 01:00:03,210 --> 01:00:08,520 makes no sense. And you've got to start questioning the motives 1072 01:00:08,580 --> 01:00:13,770 of, quote unquote leaders of all countries about what's really 1073 01:00:13,770 --> 01:00:16,410 going on here. The second thing we need to remember is that 1074 01:00:16,410 --> 01:00:21,090 these leaders, they don't care about people. They don't care. 1075 01:00:21,330 --> 01:00:24,120 They don't care how many they have to kill, how many die, 1076 01:00:24,330 --> 01:00:27,690 they've got to some boy, whatever the whatever the reason 1077 01:00:27,690 --> 01:00:31,890 for all this is, they don't care. They'll just do whatever. 1078 01:00:32,010 --> 01:00:34,740 And then we sit here, even you and I like whoa, listen to the 1079 01:00:34,740 --> 01:00:36,270 news. No, okay, just 1080 01:00:36,270 --> 01:00:39,120 Unknown: making sure we that's what we're paid to 1081 01:00:39,120 --> 01:00:41,460 Adam Curry: do. What's below makes nothing but sense. 1082 01:00:44,010 --> 01:00:46,260 John C Dvorak: Why are we doing this? I don't matter here. 1083 01:00:48,090 --> 01:00:50,010 Sorry, three. Also, 1084 01:00:50,010 --> 01:00:52,740 Unknown: on Wednesday, I'll cross Israel's northern border, 1085 01:00:52,770 --> 01:00:56,640 Hezbollah terrorists and Lebanon fired a barrage of rockets into 1086 01:00:56,640 --> 01:01:00,450 northern Israel, killing one woman and injuring eight others. 1087 01:01:00,630 --> 01:01:04,320 In response to the attacks. Israel Defense Forces reported 1088 01:01:04,320 --> 01:01:08,100 striking a series of targets in Lebanon, and the Chief of the 1089 01:01:08,100 --> 01:01:11,730 General Staff of the IDF said they are preparing for war in 1090 01:01:11,730 --> 01:01:12,300 the north. 1091 01:01:13,410 --> 01:01:16,230 Adam Curry: This is just west Clarke seven just unfolding 1092 01:01:16,230 --> 01:01:18,210 before us is that's all kind of 1093 01:01:18,210 --> 01:01:20,790 John C Dvorak: look, this is slow. That's all of it. Now, 1094 01:01:20,970 --> 01:01:25,500 it's conceivable one little side clip here I want to play. And 1095 01:01:25,500 --> 01:01:29,940 this is because the first thing that came to mind when I heard 1096 01:01:29,940 --> 01:01:34,500 this clip, and I thought to myself, what was Tucker Carlson 1097 01:01:34,500 --> 01:01:40,140 really doing in Russia? Meeting with Putin? Is it possible that 1098 01:01:41,280 --> 01:01:43,650 Adam Curry: he was passing off a USB stick? 1099 01:01:44,700 --> 01:01:47,640 John C Dvorak: He was doing some let me they're saying is it 1100 01:01:47,640 --> 01:01:50,370 possible that he was doing something and this something may 1101 01:01:50,370 --> 01:01:54,420 be involved with this particular clip? play this clip this is the 1102 01:01:54,450 --> 01:01:57,600 clip is prisoner exchange. Meanwhile, 1103 01:01:57,600 --> 01:02:00,780 Unknown: a possible prisoner exchange could be in the works 1104 01:02:00,780 --> 01:02:04,620 between Russia and the US. The Kremlin refused to comment on 1105 01:02:04,620 --> 01:02:07,950 the state of negotiations when asked today. It restated that 1106 01:02:07,950 --> 01:02:12,570 such cases must be resolved in silence. The US is seeking the 1107 01:02:12,570 --> 01:02:15,750 release of former Marine Paul Whelan and form and reporter 1108 01:02:15,750 --> 01:02:19,470 Evan Gorsky vich, both held in Russian prisons on spy charges 1109 01:02:19,500 --> 01:02:22,800 they denied. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said yesterday 1110 01:02:22,800 --> 01:02:26,490 that he had spoken to Whalen and a rare phone call. Russian 1111 01:02:26,490 --> 01:02:29,340 President Vladimir Putin suggested in an interview with 1112 01:02:29,340 --> 01:02:32,160 American journalist Tucker Carlson last week, that in 1113 01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:35,580 return for Herskovits Moscow wants Germany to free bottom 1114 01:02:35,580 --> 01:02:39,330 Cresco volve crosscut cough was convicted of murdering a Chechen 1115 01:02:39,330 --> 01:02:40,860 dissident in Berlin. 1116 01:02:42,750 --> 01:02:46,230 Adam Curry: It could be it's possible I mean, I don't know 1117 01:02:46,290 --> 01:02:46,620 you'd have 1118 01:02:46,620 --> 01:02:48,540 John C Dvorak: to have some face to face once in a while. But 1119 01:02:48,540 --> 01:02:51,270 with this Ukrainian situation going on, you need to get a 1120 01:02:51,270 --> 01:02:54,480 third party and neutral guy in there. Who's got nothing to do 1121 01:02:54,480 --> 01:02:56,940 with the State Department, the US government or anything else 1122 01:02:56,970 --> 01:02:57,270 coming 1123 01:02:57,270 --> 01:02:57,810 Adam Curry: to Kansas but 1124 01:02:57,810 --> 01:02:59,550 John C Dvorak: he's always wanted to be a spook 1125 01:02:59,580 --> 01:03:04,260 Adam Curry: that they can just pick up the phone. I don't know. 1126 01:03:04,260 --> 01:03:08,460 But on his way home and tuck our stuff stopped off at the World 1127 01:03:08,460 --> 01:03:11,130 Government con conference. I 1128 01:03:11,130 --> 01:03:13,260 John C Dvorak: saw that too. And he 1129 01:03:13,260 --> 01:03:14,220 Adam Curry: was interviewed. Well, 1130 01:03:14,400 --> 01:03:16,020 John C Dvorak: I'm sorry, hard to clear. We 1131 01:03:16,020 --> 01:03:19,320 Adam Curry: looked we looked at his crotch for 36 minutes was 1132 01:03:19,320 --> 01:03:23,580 the worst camera shot ever. You know, but with that, that huge 1133 01:03:23,580 --> 01:03:26,520 dude behind and besides him asking questions. Well, they're 1134 01:03:26,520 --> 01:03:29,370 side by side very uncomfortable, hard to clip, also 1135 01:03:29,370 --> 01:03:33,930 uninteresting. It was just uninteresting. And why would 1136 01:03:33,930 --> 01:03:37,950 that shot if his crush it just the customer was decent amateur 1137 01:03:37,980 --> 01:03:42,030 John C Dvorak: amateurs. But so or maybe not. Maybe it was I 1138 01:03:42,030 --> 01:03:45,420 could do some jokes here. I'm not going to use. But how about 1139 01:03:45,450 --> 01:03:50,130 this, go back to this the idea of Tucker going back there to 1140 01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:57,540 set up this prisoner exchange. One of the things that Putin 1141 01:03:57,540 --> 01:04:01,770 wants is this guy that killed the Chechnya and guy. Yeah. And 1142 01:04:01,770 --> 01:04:05,580 he wants him out. He wants them back in Russia. And in their 1143 01:04:05,580 --> 01:04:09,120 interview, Putin did discuss the CIA being involved in this, that 1144 01:04:09,120 --> 01:04:12,870 and the other thing and he and he got out which something is 1145 01:04:12,870 --> 01:04:16,680 never been done on American media. He got out what he 1146 01:04:16,710 --> 01:04:22,380 considers the fact that the Chechen situation was set up and 1147 01:04:22,410 --> 01:04:27,900 executed by the CIA is what he says and arm narrative about the 1148 01:04:27,900 --> 01:04:32,310 Chesty and thing is that it was all established by by Putin, he 1149 01:04:32,310 --> 01:04:35,880 set it up, so he could burn down the big apartment building and 1150 01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:39,960 kill a bunch of Chechnya's and remember that yes, okay. That's 1151 01:04:39,960 --> 01:04:43,140 been going on. And I don't think Putin likes that narrative. It 1152 01:04:43,140 --> 01:04:46,290 may or may not be true. None of this all this by the way we're 1153 01:04:46,290 --> 01:04:50,160 discussing may or may not be true, but it just a lot of scams 1154 01:04:50,160 --> 01:04:53,010 going on and so far is trying to get us to think one way or the 1155 01:04:53,010 --> 01:04:56,460 other, but couldn't got that into the public domain. This 1156 01:04:56,460 --> 01:04:59,640 little See, I think the idea would be this. We want to get 1157 01:04:59,640 --> 01:05:02,970 these two Americans back. What do we have to do? Putin says, 1158 01:05:03,600 --> 01:05:06,300 I'll do an interview with Tucker. I have to discuss the 1159 01:05:06,300 --> 01:05:10,020 CIA get involved in Chechnya. I want that guy back from Germany. 1160 01:05:10,020 --> 01:05:13,290 And then you can have your, your, your spook and your 1161 01:05:13,290 --> 01:05:17,370 journalist back. And we'll be good to go. And but but you're 1162 01:05:17,370 --> 01:05:21,390 gonna have to set it up in in a secret, like just this last 1163 01:05:21,390 --> 01:05:21,570 week, 1164 01:05:21,780 --> 01:05:23,610 Adam Curry: telling me that that's really the level of 1165 01:05:23,610 --> 01:05:26,340 importance of things that these guys are thinking about. I just 1166 01:05:26,340 --> 01:05:32,520 don't want to look like a douche. i Okay. Yeah, 1167 01:05:32,610 --> 01:05:35,880 John C Dvorak: exactly. She's taken. And there's no 1168 01:05:37,140 --> 01:05:40,050 explanation for Tucker. Oh, I've been trying to do this interview 1169 01:05:40,050 --> 01:05:44,010 for a decade, blah, blah, blah. This whole Tucker thing and this 1170 01:05:44,070 --> 01:05:48,900 boring interview, I think was just to get Tucker over there to 1171 01:05:48,900 --> 01:05:52,050 set the set up things because he's always wanted to be a 1172 01:05:52,050 --> 01:05:56,610 spook, he said, So himself, set things up. Okay for the Russians 1173 01:05:56,610 --> 01:05:58,830 to do this trade, because there's no reason for this, this 1174 01:05:58,830 --> 01:06:04,410 prisoner. Transfer this trade to happen. Now, coincidentally, 1175 01:06:04,590 --> 01:06:07,710 like a couple of days after Tucker shows up? Well, 1176 01:06:07,710 --> 01:06:10,320 Adam Curry: you've successfully ruin any chances of me ever 1177 01:06:10,320 --> 01:06:13,320 appearing on Tucker show, that's for sure. That's never gonna 1178 01:06:13,320 --> 01:06:14,010 happen. Now. 1179 01:06:14,040 --> 01:06:17,550 John C Dvorak: Why? Maybe I ruined my chances. I didn't ruin 1180 01:06:17,550 --> 01:06:19,800 your chances. You're defending Tiger. I can hear it. 1181 01:06:19,830 --> 01:06:23,520 Adam Curry: No, I'm not. I'm not. Because I what he did for 1182 01:06:23,520 --> 01:06:26,670 me is he reminded me that the World Government Congress 1183 01:06:26,670 --> 01:06:31,800 conference was on in I think, is Dubai. And I was like, Oh, 1184 01:06:31,800 --> 01:06:34,740 that's right. That's where all these douchebags get together 1185 01:06:34,740 --> 01:06:38,670 and tell us how they're going to rule us in the future. Exactly. 1186 01:06:38,670 --> 01:06:44,430 And luckily, our boy Schwab was there. And he laid it out seven 1187 01:06:44,430 --> 01:06:49,950 Unknown: years ago, after having written a book about evolution, 1188 01:06:51,120 --> 01:06:58,680 I showed houses evolution will change how we live, how we act, 1189 01:06:58,800 --> 01:07:02,790 how we communicate, how we produce, and how we consume. 1190 01:07:03,510 --> 01:07:07,650 Now, we are speaking not just about to foresee this 1191 01:07:07,650 --> 01:07:13,620 revolution, we are speaking about the transition of human 1192 01:07:13,620 --> 01:07:20,160 kind into a new era. We speak about transition into what I 1193 01:07:20,160 --> 01:07:27,240 would call the intelligent age. situation. Unfold unfolds within 1194 01:07:27,240 --> 01:07:33,540 a society where artificial intelligence, robotics, Internet 1195 01:07:33,570 --> 01:07:34,380 of Things. 1196 01:07:38,760 --> 01:07:41,640 John C Dvorak: Internet of Things, internet 1197 01:07:41,640 --> 01:07:44,040 Adam Curry: of things, things 1198 01:07:44,070 --> 01:07:48,720 Unknown: Internet of Things. So 3d printing, genetic 1199 01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:55,200 engineering, quantum computing, some foundations of our daily 1200 01:07:55,200 --> 01:07:56,460 lives. Okay, 1201 01:07:56,460 --> 01:07:59,730 Adam Curry: so he's setting it up was the Internet of Things, 1202 01:08:00,030 --> 01:08:03,450 saying quantum computing, I just want to point out quantum 1203 01:08:03,450 --> 01:08:08,880 computing on deck on deck. But He's warming he's really talking 1204 01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:12,420 about a global warming. What does it what is 1205 01:08:14,640 --> 01:08:18,180 John C Dvorak: it when this guy is when his head is on a stick? 1206 01:08:19,710 --> 01:08:23,340 Do you think his mouth should be a gape? Or somebody should wire 1207 01:08:23,340 --> 01:08:24,450 it shut? What do you think? 1208 01:08:25,050 --> 01:08:28,890 Adam Curry: What I like about this is that this is how these 1209 01:08:28,890 --> 01:08:33,120 people are thinking. It doesn't mean that it's true, but it is 1210 01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:36,300 true how they think and they're all in because they're dumb. 1211 01:08:36,720 --> 01:08:39,450 They are dumb. That's why they're doing this job. It's 1212 01:08:39,450 --> 01:08:43,890 because it's a it's a dumb job, and you just get fat and drunk 1213 01:08:43,890 --> 01:08:47,730 and parked. You have a good time. So it's really about 1214 01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:51,960 transhumanist control. Here's your Swaby boy. 1215 01:08:52,260 --> 01:08:57,150 Unknown: So future is not happening. We particularly you 1216 01:08:57,150 --> 01:09:02,610 as government leaders, you are shaping the future. So what does 1217 01:09:02,610 --> 01:09:09,960 it mean for government leaders?

See, 1219 01:09:15,750 --> 01:09:17,970 Adam Curry: that's exactly what you want. So that's why you're 1220 01:09:17,970 --> 01:09:19,560 saying we don't want to do it. 1221 01:09:19,710 --> 01:09:24,420 Unknown: We don't want to move into a technocracy.

Let's see what was missing was 1256 01:11:12,570 --> 01:11:13,440 tying it up. 1257 01:11:13,530 --> 01:11:16,050 Adam Curry: Let's listen to Dutch member of European 1258 01:11:16,050 --> 01:11:20,310 Parliament, Rob Rose, who will tell us really exactly what the 1259 01:11:20,310 --> 01:11:21,030 plan is the 1260 01:11:21,030 --> 01:11:24,570 Unknown: bureaucrats centralist in Brussels are addicted to 1261 01:11:24,570 --> 01:11:31,170 power. They use or abuse every crisis, financial crisis, COVID 1262 01:11:31,170 --> 01:11:37,470 crisis, Ukraine crisis, energy crisis. And the solution is 1263 01:11:37,500 --> 01:11:40,680 always the same. And the professor already said it more 1264 01:11:40,680 --> 01:11:45,330 European Union if there's no crisis, and that's the second 1265 01:11:45,330 --> 01:11:51,660 point, if there's no crisis, they create the crisis. For 1266 01:11:52,110 --> 01:11:57,990 example, climate change, they call it an existential threat. 1267 01:11:58,530 --> 01:12:00,720 And the solution is the Green Deal. 1268 01:12:03,030 --> 01:12:04,590 The Green Deal destroyed our 1269 01:12:05,940 --> 01:12:12,300 energy system, it is destroying our food system. They are trying 1270 01:12:12,330 --> 01:12:19,170 to control co2. But if you control co2, co2, you you 1271 01:12:19,170 --> 01:12:22,260 control people because everything we do in life is 1272 01:12:22,260 --> 01:12:27,000 about co2 emissions, living, breathing, eating, traveling, 1273 01:12:27,300 --> 01:12:30,810 living. So if you can control that you can control people's 1274 01:12:30,810 --> 01:12:34,500 lives. Now they introduced the digital identity and the central 1275 01:12:34,500 --> 01:12:38,820 bank digital currency. So they can see everything we do, and 1276 01:12:38,820 --> 01:12:40,710 they can control everything 1277 01:12:41,970 --> 01:12:45,150 we do because they can shut off shut off our 1278 01:12:46,440 --> 01:12:50,160 our financial system whenever they want. We have seen it 1279 01:12:50,160 --> 01:12:54,660 already in Canada during the COVID crisis. Yes, 1280 01:12:54,720 --> 01:12:58,530 Adam Curry: exactly. And I think that there's some some opposite 1281 01:12:58,530 --> 01:13:02,970 play. Intentionally, unintentionally, I'm not sure 1282 01:13:03,000 --> 01:13:08,220 all ops would be intentional. This was a very odd report, if a 1283 01:13:08,220 --> 01:13:13,080 local ABC report that this is happening tells me that we need 1284 01:13:13,080 --> 01:13:16,530 some solutions and the banks can't do it. They're no good. 1285 01:13:16,560 --> 01:13:19,470 Unknown: I hadn't tapped it. I hadn't inserted it. I hadn't 1286 01:13:19,470 --> 01:13:22,800 swiped it. And then all of a sudden, out comes the receipt. 1287 01:13:22,980 --> 01:13:25,890 And I said how did this get paid for? The cashier couldn't 1288 01:13:25,890 --> 01:13:29,580 explain it. She stood there literally just sort of blank. I 1289 01:13:29,580 --> 01:13:32,280 really thought that the guy ahead of me that he had been 1290 01:13:32,280 --> 01:13:35,370 charged. I said somebody paid for this on a credit card 1291 01:13:35,370 --> 01:13:39,120 somewhere. Turns out the tap to pay card reader and Safeway had 1292 01:13:39,120 --> 01:13:42,900 ignored the debit card and Edgar's hand. Instead it reached 1293 01:13:42,900 --> 01:13:47,490 into Edgar's back pocket through his wallet and charged his Bank 1294 01:13:47,490 --> 01:13:50,730 of America credit card tucked inside. That's a pretty big 1295 01:13:50,730 --> 01:13:54,540 reach. I mean, around me or threw me to my wallet. Why 1296 01:13:54,540 --> 01:13:57,630 didn't you grab the card that was narrowed? How did it decide 1297 01:13:57,630 --> 01:13:58,470 what to grab? 1298 01:13:58,650 --> 01:14:00,690 I was shocked. I was like, Well, it can't 1299 01:14:00,690 --> 01:14:04,590 be bizarre. He says it happened at a doctor's office. They 1300 01:14:04,590 --> 01:14:09,300 went to pay and they said you're already paid and I said I 1301 01:14:09,300 --> 01:14:12,660 haven't inserted my card. I haven't even taken it out of my 1302 01:14:12,660 --> 01:14:13,260 wallet. 1303 01:14:13,290 --> 01:14:16,830 Turns out the card reader there had sent radio waves into her 1304 01:14:16,830 --> 01:14:21,060 purse and charged her credit card without her knowing it and 1305 01:14:21,060 --> 01:14:25,350 that wasn't all sign you got an even bigger surprise at a little 1306 01:14:25,350 --> 01:14:25,950 shop 1307 01:14:25,980 --> 01:14:30,540 woman said Oh my It's just read three cards. 1308 01:14:30,570 --> 01:14:35,580 The store is kept to pay system charge. Not only one but three 1309 01:14:35,580 --> 01:14:39,090 credit cards tucked in a wallet inside her purse. 1310 01:14:39,120 --> 01:14:42,660 I'd say I was two feet away at that point for sure all 1311 01:14:42,660 --> 01:14:45,960 charges were reversed but it was troubling. 1312 01:14:47,250 --> 01:14:51,420 Adam Curry: This, this doesn't sound real to me. Sounds 1313 01:14:51,420 --> 01:14:55,140 John C Dvorak: like bull crap to me too. Now my cards are in a 1314 01:14:55,140 --> 01:14:59,940 wallet that has a Faraday Faraday cage Faraday cage court 1315 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:04,440 Of course, but, but when I pull the card out to have it read on 1316 01:15:04,440 --> 01:15:07,920 one of these things I have to fight it. Yeah, move it around. 1317 01:15:07,920 --> 01:15:09,210 I gotta flip it over. 1318 01:15:09,240 --> 01:15:10,980 Adam Curry: It doesn't right I'm struggling 1319 01:15:10,980 --> 01:15:13,110 John C Dvorak: for Hey, gotta read the card and now I give up 1320 01:15:13,110 --> 01:15:17,040 and I stick it in. But generally There you go. There's a line for 1321 01:15:17,040 --> 01:15:21,150 you. Yep. Now I'm worried. So you know, so you fool around 1322 01:15:21,150 --> 01:15:24,180 your foot so I took for the fact that thing that one guy says it 1323 01:15:24,180 --> 01:15:29,010 went through his body into his wallet in his you know, reached 1324 01:15:29,010 --> 01:15:33,840 around reached it was reached around bull crap this is these 1325 01:15:33,840 --> 01:15:36,960 stories are being planted for some reason. Okay, you brought 1326 01:15:36,960 --> 01:15:40,110 him up? Yeah, what's the reason Oh, we 1327 01:15:40,110 --> 01:15:42,420 Adam Curry: have to have a new a new banking system. This is no 1328 01:15:42,420 --> 01:15:47,370 longer secure the that can only be Federal Reserve fed. Now I 1329 01:15:47,370 --> 01:15:47,910 don't want to say 1330 01:15:47,910 --> 01:15:51,030 John C Dvorak: CBDs reach around it with it anyway, if it's one 1331 01:15:51,030 --> 01:15:55,260 of these cards, no no. Huge RFID range hollows 1332 01:15:55,260 --> 01:15:58,710 Adam Curry: on which the body we just said is bullcrap story 1333 01:15:58,710 --> 01:16:04,590 because the way the RFID works is the signal goes out is 1334 01:16:04,590 --> 01:16:08,010 reflected back the energy is reflected back by the trip in 1335 01:16:08,010 --> 01:16:11,340 your card. That's the part that is just not going to happen at 1336 01:16:11,340 --> 01:16:16,530 too far distance in less power. I mean, does it amplify one on 1337 01:16:16,530 --> 01:16:19,950 one does it go in at 10 Watts and come out 10 watts? I doubt 1338 01:16:19,950 --> 01:16:23,700 it. So it's just not a true story. That's why it's a local 1339 01:16:23,700 --> 01:16:28,260 story. It's not a true story. And this is to discredit banks 1340 01:16:28,260 --> 01:16:32,430 to discredit your tap to pay probably to discredit Google Pay 1341 01:16:32,430 --> 01:16:34,920 and Apple Pay and all this stuff. This is there's an 1342 01:16:34,920 --> 01:16:39,450 opposite play. A pay a pay play to pop up pop pop up, pay up 1343 01:16:39,450 --> 01:16:39,810 play 1344 01:16:40,530 --> 01:16:42,480 John C Dvorak: something like that, but from the forces of 1345 01:16:42,480 --> 01:16:43,290 cash 1346 01:16:43,980 --> 01:16:50,430 Adam Curry: flow of good the forces of cash Okay, Boomer. 1347 01:16:52,560 --> 01:16:57,570 That ship has long sailed and Oh, I'm so long sales. 1348 01:16:57,600 --> 01:16:59,730 John C Dvorak: I know in Berkeley for example, they 1349 01:16:59,790 --> 01:17:03,960 started landing all these all these all, you know, use a 1350 01:17:03,960 --> 01:17:07,230 credit card here and there and then became a city ordinance. 1351 01:17:07,230 --> 01:17:09,240 No, you can't because the homeless don't have credit 1352 01:17:09,240 --> 01:17:12,180 cards. And they may want to go into a place and buy a hamburger 1353 01:17:12,180 --> 01:17:15,150 a homeless person. All they have is cash and they have to go and 1354 01:17:15,150 --> 01:17:16,830 abuse cash to buy the burger. 1355 01:17:16,950 --> 01:17:20,280 Adam Curry: How about how about this? How about Satoshi Nakamoto 1356 01:17:20,310 --> 01:17:23,400 telling everyone to use Bitcoin? I mean, that's just as you buy a 1357 01:17:23,400 --> 01:17:30,180 burger with Bitcoin. That depends what still hasn't 1358 01:17:30,180 --> 01:17:32,400 arrived. By the way. While I sent it. 1359 01:17:33,600 --> 01:17:35,310 John C Dvorak: I think there's something going on with the post 1360 01:17:35,310 --> 01:17:40,290 office. No, well, that's totally possible. There was this we had 1361 01:17:40,290 --> 01:17:45,570 a guy there's just been too many anomalous really old mail that 1362 01:17:45,570 --> 01:17:48,510 was like you look at the update. Why is it taking so long to get 1363 01:17:48,510 --> 01:17:51,810 to me? It used to be like three days for mail pretty much from 1364 01:17:51,810 --> 01:17:54,030 any shipped anywhere in the country to get to the post 1365 01:17:54,030 --> 01:17:58,680 office box. Now it's 578 10. What happened? Just so 1366 01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:01,530 Adam Curry: you know, I sent it from my bank, so they sent the 1367 01:18:01,530 --> 01:18:05,940 cheque. So there could be a delay there. I don't know. It's 1368 01:18:05,940 --> 01:18:09,930 a great way to send cash. And I add a check. And I sent it to 1369 01:18:09,930 --> 01:18:13,830 the PIO box. So do you been to the PIO box? Yeah, yesterday. 1370 01:18:13,950 --> 01:18:16,920 Okay. Well, maybe it's there today. We had another 1371 01:18:17,910 --> 01:18:20,250 John C Dvorak: so it came in from the bank. How did this I 1372 01:18:20,250 --> 01:18:22,800 kind of just get mixed right in with no agenda stuff? 1373 01:18:23,130 --> 01:18:26,280 Adam Curry: It says John C. Dvorak, which 1374 01:18:26,850 --> 01:18:29,250 John C Dvorak: not a no agenda stuff comes to Jhansi. Dvorak at 1375 01:18:29,250 --> 01:18:30,030 that post office. 1376 01:18:30,030 --> 01:18:31,830 Adam Curry: But yeah, from Adam curry. 1377 01:18:32,970 --> 01:18:36,060 John C Dvorak: Well, not if it came not from yourself is from 1378 01:18:36,150 --> 01:18:37,320 some bang, it'll be 1379 01:18:37,320 --> 01:18:39,930 Adam Curry: front. It'll be a printed check for me. And the 1380 01:18:39,930 --> 01:18:42,690 last time I did this, you said Never send it that house, send 1381 01:18:42,690 --> 01:18:47,100 it to the PIO box. You literally told me this because the light? 1382 01:18:47,460 --> 01:18:49,980 John C Dvorak: Yes, but I didn't realize that it was coming for 1383 01:18:49,980 --> 01:18:51,660 some anonymous bank. It's 1384 01:18:51,660 --> 01:18:54,240 Adam Curry: not an anonymous bank. It'll be a check that says 1385 01:18:54,240 --> 01:18:55,620 Adam curry on the check. 1386 01:18:55,650 --> 01:18:57,870 John C Dvorak: Okay, if it says Adam Korean Did you ever see I 1387 01:18:57,870 --> 01:19:01,650 don't see. I don't see it on the spreadsheet. If I see Adam curry 1388 01:19:01,650 --> 01:19:02,670 on the spreadsheet. 1389 01:19:04,350 --> 01:19:06,600 Adam Curry: Sorry, I'm deducting. That's an interesting 1390 01:19:06,600 --> 01:19:06,810 way 1391 01:19:06,810 --> 01:19:08,550 John C Dvorak: to recoup half of this bet. 1392 01:19:08,670 --> 01:19:10,200 Adam Curry: No, I'm already 1393 01:19:10,290 --> 01:19:13,350 John C Dvorak: it's a smart move. I've given you kudos for 1394 01:19:13,350 --> 01:19:14,910 what a great idea. No, 1395 01:19:14,910 --> 01:19:17,310 Adam Curry: it's I'm expensing it as show content. Are you 1396 01:19:17,310 --> 01:19:20,280 kidding me? I'm writing it right off like, oh, no, no, you 1397 01:19:20,280 --> 01:19:22,470 John C Dvorak: can regain half of it the same way. I've seen 1398 01:19:22,470 --> 01:19:23,640 scams like this. 1399 01:19:24,570 --> 01:19:27,240 Adam Curry: Let's, let's talk about something else. That 1400 01:19:27,240 --> 01:19:30,270 happened. That is not really it's underreported. I had to 1401 01:19:30,270 --> 01:19:34,860 pick this up from Banyan show. Mitch McConnell sister in law. 1402 01:19:36,030 --> 01:19:37,800 You know, he's married to a Chinese. 1403 01:19:38,790 --> 01:19:40,650 John C Dvorak: Yeah, he's got direct connections to the 1404 01:19:40,650 --> 01:19:41,700 People's Republic. 1405 01:19:41,970 --> 01:19:47,640 Adam Curry: So apparently, on her ranch in Texas, she got into 1406 01:19:47,640 --> 01:19:51,060 her Tesla, and it backed up into the water and she drowned 1407 01:19:51,090 --> 01:19:56,160 Unknown: with Angela child, Helene child's sister. suddenly 1408 01:19:56,160 --> 01:20:00,330 passed away. We believe it's now being reported on there. ranch 1409 01:20:00,330 --> 01:20:05,520 in Texas and the Tesla she was driving was founded upon. Her 1410 01:20:05,520 --> 01:20:10,710 husband is Jim Brier, her Jim buyers of famous investor 1411 01:20:11,310 --> 01:20:14,190 invested in Facebook was one of the early investors in Facebook 1412 01:20:14,190 --> 01:20:16,320 and then went off and started funneling a lot of money into 1413 01:20:16,320 --> 01:20:20,520 China through a company called ADG. He's on the board of 1414 01:20:20,520 --> 01:20:23,520 another big China investor, which is I believe he's on the 1415 01:20:23,880 --> 01:20:27,870 board of Blackstone, you know, so he's got a lot of a lot of 1416 01:20:27,870 --> 01:20:31,830 China exposure. And here, everybody's kind of shocked, 1417 01:20:31,860 --> 01:20:37,530 right? It's like there's a mysterious passing away of, you 1418 01:20:37,530 --> 01:20:40,500 know, a prominent woman who was on the board of directors of the 1419 01:20:40,500 --> 01:20:44,970 Bank of China, was involved in the, you know, Macondo cause 1420 01:20:44,970 --> 01:20:48,570 shipping company. They've done a lot in the shipping community, 1421 01:20:48,690 --> 01:20:50,940 the shipping community disrupted, and there's just 1422 01:20:50,940 --> 01:20:53,610 mystery, there's no information. There's all these articles on 1423 01:20:53,880 --> 01:20:56,190 Elaine Chao and her relationships and everything 1424 01:20:56,190 --> 01:20:59,280 else. And all at the all at the end, it says there was a car 1425 01:20:59,280 --> 01:21:03,540 accident, you know, and it was it was reported by Kyle bass on 1426 01:21:03,540 --> 01:21:05,910 Twitter this morning, and it started leaking out last night 1427 01:21:05,910 --> 01:21:11,400 that this was more drowning than a car accident. And that was a 1428 01:21:11,460 --> 01:21:14,370 car on their ranch outside of Austin, Texas. 1429 01:21:16,710 --> 01:21:19,650 Adam Curry: Maybe a two to the head moment here. Well, I 1430 01:21:19,650 --> 01:21:22,680 John C Dvorak: mean, death by to how hard is it to probe into 1431 01:21:22,680 --> 01:21:26,880 Tesla's just a computer with a bunch of battery wheels? With 1432 01:21:26,880 --> 01:21:32,340 wheels? So how hard would it be to program it to once you get in 1433 01:21:32,340 --> 01:21:36,870 under some circumstances pre programmed to lock the door so 1434 01:21:36,870 --> 01:21:42,570 you can't get out? Back up into the river? Or the lake or 1435 01:21:42,570 --> 01:21:44,850 whatever it is, I guess the lake on the property just just go 1436 01:21:44,850 --> 01:21:47,460 into reverse because it can park itself. You can let the thing go 1437 01:21:47,460 --> 01:21:51,900 and go find a parking spot. So it can back up into the lake and 1438 01:21:51,900 --> 01:21:56,700 drown you all programmatically. Is that a possibility? Anybody 1439 01:21:56,700 --> 01:22:01,050 out to you know, by the way, Brunetti one system? Did you see 1440 01:22:01,050 --> 01:22:03,720 brunette? He's got one of those stupid trucks. The 1441 01:22:03,720 --> 01:22:07,080 Adam Curry: Cyber truck? Yeah, well, let's listen to this. Let 1442 01:22:07,080 --> 01:22:09,840 me just let me just tie into what you're saying. First of 1443 01:22:09,840 --> 01:22:15,540 all, the Tesla doors are very scary. There's lots of stories 1444 01:22:15,540 --> 01:22:18,450 of people were the word caught on fire. They couldn't get out 1445 01:22:18,450 --> 01:22:21,390 because the doors wouldn't unlock. It's, it's you know, 1446 01:22:21,390 --> 01:22:23,610 it's like a by wire thing. It's not a direct 1447 01:22:25,380 --> 01:22:26,460 John C Dvorak: mechanical lock. 1448 01:22:27,030 --> 01:22:32,520 Adam Curry: China is definitely trying to overtake the Evie 1449 01:22:32,520 --> 01:22:36,330 market or what's left of it. I would say it could be an 1450 01:22:36,330 --> 01:22:40,590 industrial hit by China. So you know, it's a little good but you 1451 01:22:40,590 --> 01:22:44,430 know, back back here into the pond, you know, and the doors 1452 01:22:44,430 --> 01:22:47,610 may just have shorted out whatever. The you know, they 1453 01:22:47,610 --> 01:22:48,090 definitely the 1454 01:22:48,090 --> 01:22:51,300 John C Dvorak: doors. I'm sorry. You can backdoor into the pond. 1455 01:22:51,300 --> 01:22:52,440 You can lock the doors. No, 1456 01:22:52,440 --> 01:22:54,600 Adam Curry: I'm saying the doors the minute you do it in drive it 1457 01:22:54,600 --> 01:22:58,170 the thing locks the doors, and then she's back in and just done 1458 01:22:58,170 --> 01:23:02,460 is over panic and it's done. Yeah, there's a lot of a lot of 1459 01:23:02,460 --> 01:23:03,060 pressure on 1460 01:23:03,240 --> 01:23:05,700 John C Dvorak: cars definitely going to sink. It weighs a ton 1461 01:23:06,060 --> 01:23:07,770 more than most. it'll 1462 01:23:07,800 --> 01:23:11,670 Adam Curry: sink right into the mud. Yeah, yeah. Okay. What 1463 01:23:11,670 --> 01:23:12,540 about Brunetti with a 1464 01:23:12,540 --> 01:23:14,820 John C Dvorak: cybernetic guy himself? cybertruck and I'm 1465 01:23:14,820 --> 01:23:18,060 thinking there's somebody could use the same trick to get rid of 1466 01:23:18,060 --> 01:23:22,230 him. Wow, be careful with these things. 1467 01:23:22,950 --> 01:23:26,040 Adam Curry: Why would you say that about a friend of the show? 1468 01:23:26,460 --> 01:23:30,870 No, I'm worried now. Why would you wasn't 1469 01:23:30,870 --> 01:23:33,990 John C Dvorak: worried before you ran this clip that anyone 1470 01:23:33,990 --> 01:23:37,800 who has a Tesla of any sort could be assassinated? Hey, 1471 01:23:37,800 --> 01:23:39,990 Adam Curry: Dana. I love you man. Don't worry about it. Don't 1472 01:23:39,990 --> 01:23:44,520 listen to John but don't drive that thing. It's a total penis. 1473 01:23:44,520 --> 01:23:44,730 Oh 1474 01:23:44,730 --> 01:23:45,270 John C Dvorak: water. 1475 01:23:45,300 --> 01:23:49,260 Adam Curry: Yeah. You know it. If it gets dirty if it gets bird 1476 01:23:49,260 --> 01:23:51,540 poop on it, you have to clean it off right away because it might 1477 01:23:51,540 --> 01:23:52,350 hurt. Oh, 1478 01:23:52,350 --> 01:23:54,780 John C Dvorak: just stay I think it was not mistaken. It's a 1479 01:23:54,780 --> 01:23:59,340 stainless steel. Body those that stainless steel is not the first 1480 01:23:59,340 --> 01:24:02,940 thing you learn in laboratory. Stainless steel is not 1481 01:24:02,940 --> 01:24:03,780 stainless. 1482 01:24:05,430 --> 01:24:12,180 Adam Curry: Just briefly on them on the AI scam. headline, Sam 1483 01:24:12,180 --> 01:24:13,890 Altman wants $7 trillion. 1484 01:24:15,120 --> 01:24:17,610 John C Dvorak: Yeah, five to seven. Yes. Here. 1485 01:24:17,640 --> 01:24:21,240 Adam Curry: Here's what was interesting about this AI crap. 1486 01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:26,820 Each level up of a GPT. So now we're I guess we're at GPT four. 1487 01:24:27,450 --> 01:24:31,110 So to go to GPT five, so we can reach what do they call it? 1488 01:24:32,370 --> 01:24:36,000 Truly generative. Now what is the term autonomous AI whatever 1489 01:24:36,000 --> 01:24:39,450 it is, where it thinks for itself? Oh, yeah, that'll be the 1490 01:24:39,450 --> 01:24:48,360 day cost between 25 and 100 times the previous one. So and 1491 01:24:48,360 --> 01:24:53,700 So forget the compute power the amount of energy needed. GPC for 1492 01:24:53,700 --> 01:25:00,000 took 50 gigawatt hours of energy to train. So GPT five will need 1493 01:25:00,000 --> 01:25:07,620 Get 1500 gigawatt hours. What's this this green? It's not the 1494 01:25:07,620 --> 01:25:10,440 whole thing's a scam and He's smart. He's like I'm gonna go 1495 01:25:10,470 --> 01:25:12,540 Milby some chips, give me some money. 1496 01:25:13,230 --> 01:25:14,940 John C Dvorak: He's not gonna get anything soon. We're 1497 01:25:14,940 --> 01:25:17,550 Adam Curry: computing is next on deck, baby. I'm telling you, 1498 01:25:17,580 --> 01:25:20,670 it's falling apart. None of it works. You know, now they're 1499 01:25:20,670 --> 01:25:24,420 saying, Oh, the Microsoft thing is not all that great. It's not 1500 01:25:24,420 --> 01:25:30,720 all that great. And I think in general, there's moves now, to 1501 01:25:30,720 --> 01:25:33,030 get you know, to pressure Silicon Valley, you guys got to 1502 01:25:33,030 --> 01:25:36,300 start paying us more we want more lobbying money. And up 1503 01:25:36,300 --> 01:25:39,750 front and center is New York City Mayor Eric Adams, 1504 01:25:39,750 --> 01:25:43,440 Unknown: my fellow New Yorkers. This is a city built on 1505 01:25:43,440 --> 01:25:46,260 innovation and technology. Oh really pleased. 1506 01:25:46,560 --> 01:25:49,590 Adam Curry: We all time potholes and arrived yet and rats 1507 01:25:49,620 --> 01:25:55,350 Unknown: celebrate progress to the future. Even as we have 1508 01:25:55,350 --> 01:26:00,150 created jobs, opportunity and prosperity with new technology, 1509 01:26:00,600 --> 01:26:05,100 there have been unforeseen consequences and dangerous, 1510 01:26:05,430 --> 01:26:09,360 especially when it comes to social medias effect on the 1511 01:26:09,360 --> 01:26:14,640 mental health of our young people. Over the past decade, we 1512 01:26:14,640 --> 01:26:19,110 have seen just how addictive and overwhelming the online world 1513 01:26:19,110 --> 01:26:23,910 can be exposing children to content, they are not ready for 1514 01:26:24,180 --> 01:26:28,590 disrupting the educational process, and seriously damaging 1515 01:26:28,770 --> 01:26:34,140 their self esteem and wellbeing. Our most recent data found that 1516 01:26:34,140 --> 01:26:38,040 young people in New York City are experiencing anxiety, 1517 01:26:38,220 --> 01:26:43,890 hopelessness, and even attempted suicide rates we have never seen 1518 01:26:43,890 --> 01:26:47,910 before. And there is growing evidence that the power of 1519 01:26:47,910 --> 01:26:53,010 social media is a major cause. This is a serious problem that 1520 01:26:53,010 --> 01:26:58,710 must be addressed. Now. That is why earlier this morning, our 1521 01:26:58,710 --> 01:27:02,640 administration filed a lawsuit against the companies that own 1522 01:27:02,640 --> 01:27:07,950 five major social media platforms, Tik Tok, Instagram, 1523 01:27:07,980 --> 01:27:13,830 Facebook, Snapchat and YouTube. As we announced last month in 1524 01:27:13,830 --> 01:27:17,640 the State of the City address we must take action to protect our 1525 01:27:17,640 --> 01:27:22,350 children from harm online including the growing dangers 1526 01:27:22,380 --> 01:27:24,900 presented by social media give 1527 01:27:24,900 --> 01:27:30,360 Adam Curry: me money Give me money and this brings me to a 1528 01:27:30,360 --> 01:27:35,580 new exit strategy for you and I I believe I have found an exit 1529 01:27:35,580 --> 01:27:38,820 strategy that we can we can even involve the no agenda shop for 1530 01:27:38,820 --> 01:27:43,650 this I'm very excited about this. This is some new medical 1531 01:27:43,650 --> 01:27:50,640 research. I feel that that we have the insight we have the 1532 01:27:50,640 --> 01:27:55,770 knowledge we have certainly have the the testing grounds we have 1533 01:27:55,770 --> 01:27:59,550 a lot of people who can test our product and make sure it works. 1534 01:28:00,030 --> 01:28:02,340 This is a medical breakthrough. People 1535 01:28:02,340 --> 01:28:04,440 Unknown: struggling with depression may be able to ease 1536 01:28:04,440 --> 01:28:08,280 their symptoms with certain scents familiar smells help 1537 01:28:08,280 --> 01:28:11,610 trigger life memories assisting with depression recovery. 1538 01:28:11,910 --> 01:28:14,490 University of Pittsburgh neuroscientist and social 1539 01:28:14,490 --> 01:28:18,450 workers found sense were more effective than words to cue up 1540 01:28:18,450 --> 01:28:22,290 happy memories and reverse the negative thoughts cycle they 1541 01:28:22,290 --> 01:28:25,590 believe familiar memory triggering sense could play a 1542 01:28:25,590 --> 01:28:29,490 major role in aiding faster smoother depression healing 1543 01:28:29,910 --> 01:28:33,540 motors are so powerful because they engage the amygdala through 1544 01:28:33,540 --> 01:28:35,160 nerve connections.

Now I would have preferred to 1582 01:30:45,540 --> 01:30:47,910 have like big collection of something else. But these these 1583 01:30:47,910 --> 01:30:51,180 are classics and there were in that ad. Excellent. 1584 01:30:51,930 --> 01:30:54,480 Adam Curry: By the way, there was no they did the Jesus ad. 1585 01:30:55,560 --> 01:30:57,930 Did you see the Jesus ad that 1586 01:30:57,930 --> 01:31:01,230 John C Dvorak: Jesus is us or whatever it is? Yeah. Does that 1587 01:31:01,230 --> 01:31:02,700 ad has been going around for a while? 1588 01:31:02,790 --> 01:31:05,670 Adam Curry: Well, I hadn't seen it. And it's all these AI of 1589 01:31:05,670 --> 01:31:10,140 like blatantly AI images. Here's the thing. So they have Jesus 1590 01:31:10,140 --> 01:31:16,110 washing everybody's feet trans person, and then the prostitute. 1591 01:31:16,800 --> 01:31:23,430 I'm sorry, the prostitute washed Jesus's feet. Jesus only washed 1592 01:31:23,430 --> 01:31:26,640 the apostles feets what who is behind this ad? 1593 01:31:27,690 --> 01:31:28,710 John C Dvorak: prostitutes. 1594 01:31:32,460 --> 01:31:34,980 Adam Curry: All right, Bobby, the up is a rather long clip. 1595 01:31:35,040 --> 01:31:38,760 And he plays I think it's a very smart one. I don't know if it 1596 01:31:38,760 --> 01:31:44,190 gets any play or not. But he is pulling out the black rock card, 1597 01:31:44,220 --> 01:31:45,060 which I think is 1598 01:31:45,150 --> 01:31:47,520 John C Dvorak: the Oh, yeah, this this is actually quite 1599 01:31:47,520 --> 01:31:48,450 good. I'm glad you got this. 1600 01:31:48,480 --> 01:31:51,270 Adam Curry: I think it's a good move. Because everybody across 1601 01:31:51,270 --> 01:31:54,750 the political spectrum hates Black Rock. I don't Yes. I don't 1602 01:31:54,750 --> 01:31:57,480 think it's true. When he says Blackrock owns it. And 1603 01:31:57,480 --> 01:32:01,020 BlackRock. Do they really own more than 10%? In any company? 1604 01:32:01,170 --> 01:32:03,240 John C Dvorak: They're pretty. They're their minority 1605 01:32:03,240 --> 01:32:05,550 shareholders, you know, with everything they own. Yeah, they 1606 01:32:05,550 --> 01:32:08,490 may own a company or two. But it's not what their style of 1607 01:32:08,490 --> 01:32:10,710 investing is. Exactly. They 1608 01:32:10,710 --> 01:32:13,860 Adam Curry: don't own it. But that doesn't matter, because 1609 01:32:13,890 --> 01:32:17,820 it's politics. What a politician lying. But I think it's very 1610 01:32:17,820 --> 01:32:22,710 effective. And it pretty much sums up 16 years of no agenda 1611 01:32:22,710 --> 01:32:24,030 and few minutes is a 1612 01:32:24,030 --> 01:32:26,310 Unknown: war that should have never happened. It's a war that 1613 01:32:26,310 --> 01:32:30,330 Russians tried repeatedly to settle on terms that were very, 1614 01:32:30,330 --> 01:32:33,540 very beneficial to Ukraine, and is the major thing they wanted. 1615 01:32:34,050 --> 01:32:37,500 John C Dvorak: Are you saying something? No, no, just the 1616 01:32:37,500 --> 01:32:39,000 noise in your own clip. 1617 01:32:39,090 --> 01:32:40,260 Adam Curry: Oh, God, this horrible 1618 01:32:40,860 --> 01:32:45,060 Unknown: was for us to keep NATO out of the Ukraine. The big 1619 01:32:45,180 --> 01:32:49,980 military contractors want to add new countries to NATO all the 1620 01:32:49,980 --> 01:32:54,330 time. Why? Then that country has to conform its military 1621 01:32:54,330 --> 01:32:58,560 purchases, and NATO weapons specifications, which means 1622 01:32:58,560 --> 01:33:03,120 certain companies North Northrop Grumman, Raytheon, General 1623 01:33:03,120 --> 01:33:07,830 Dynamics, Boeing and Lockheed it get a draft mark, to march 2022. 1624 01:33:08,550 --> 01:33:14,250 We committed 113 plane hours. Just give you an example, we 1625 01:33:14,250 --> 01:33:17,670 could have built a home for almost every homeless person in 1626 01:33:17,670 --> 01:33:22,200 this country. We then committed another 24 billion since two 1627 01:33:22,200 --> 01:33:25,320 months ago. And now President Biden is asking for another 60 1628 01:33:25,320 --> 01:33:28,680 million. But the big big expenses are gonna come after 1629 01:33:28,680 --> 01:33:32,670 the war. When we have to rebuild you have all the things that we 1630 01:33:32,670 --> 01:33:37,740 destroyed. Mitch McConnell was as and we really afford 30 1631 01:33:37,740 --> 01:33:44,790 million at UK isn't a worry, is really going to Ukraine is going 1632 01:33:44,790 --> 01:33:49,530 to American defense, nine o'clock version. So he just 1633 01:33:49,530 --> 01:33:53,550 admitted as a money laundering scheme. And who do you think oh, 1634 01:33:53,550 --> 01:33:58,500 is every one of those companies? So Tim Scott, during the 1635 01:33:58,500 --> 01:34:03,120 Republican debate, said don't worry, it's not a gift to 1636 01:34:03,120 --> 01:34:07,770 Ukraine. It's alone. Raise your hand if you think that that laws 1637 01:34:07,830 --> 01:34:11,640 are getting paid back? Of course, it's not. So why do they 1638 01:34:11,640 --> 01:34:15,030 call it alone? Because it they call it a loan, they can impose 1639 01:34:15,060 --> 01:34:18,210 loan conditions? And what are the loan conditions that we have 1640 01:34:18,450 --> 01:34:23,910 imposed on number one of extreme austerity program. So if you're 1641 01:34:23,910 --> 01:34:27,270 poor and you great, you're going to be poor forever. Number two, 1642 01:34:27,360 --> 01:34:32,430 most important Ukraine has to put all of its assets up for 1643 01:34:32,430 --> 01:34:36,900 sale to multinational corporations, including all of 1644 01:34:36,900 --> 01:34:40,740 its agricultural land, the biggest single asset in Europe. 1645 01:34:40,980 --> 01:34:44,640 New grant there's in 1000 Years War, fought over that lenders 1646 01:34:44,670 --> 01:34:47,520 richest farmland in the world is the breadbasket of Europe. 1647 01:34:47,880 --> 01:34:53,640 500,000 kids homos, Ukrainians have died to keep that planned 1648 01:34:53,640 --> 01:34:57,240 as part of Ukraine. They almost certainly didn't know about this 1649 01:34:57,240 --> 01:35:01,380 on condition. They've already sold the river sentiment. The 1650 01:35:01,380 --> 01:35:07,290 buyers were Dupont, Cargill, and Monsanto. What do you think owns 1651 01:35:07,290 --> 01:35:12,600 all of those companies? Got BlackRock? And then in December, 1652 01:35:12,600 --> 01:35:18,870 President Biden gave out the contract to rebuild Ukraine. And 1653 01:35:18,870 --> 01:35:23,070 who do you think got that guy contract? shows you're doing 1654 01:35:23,070 --> 01:35:26,520 this right in front of us. They don't even care that we know 1655 01:35:26,520 --> 01:35:29,940 anymore. Because they know that they can get away with it. And 1656 01:35:29,940 --> 01:35:34,170 how do they know that because they haven't strategy. And as 1657 01:35:34,590 --> 01:35:38,580 all those strategies, which is they keep us at war with each 1658 01:35:38,580 --> 01:35:42,270 other. It keeps us hating on each other, to keep the 1659 01:35:42,270 --> 01:35:45,360 Republicans and Democrats fighting each other and black 1660 01:35:45,360 --> 01:35:48,180 against white and all these divisions that they saw. 1661 01:35:49,860 --> 01:35:52,530 Adam Curry: There you go, that like is PMS that he carries 1662 01:35:52,530 --> 01:35:57,600 around with him everywhere. It's not true. I just saw the 1663 01:35:57,600 --> 01:35:59,700 contract didn't go to black rock. 1664 01:36:00,450 --> 01:36:03,510 John C Dvorak: So let's go I'm just looking at just randomly 1665 01:36:03,510 --> 01:36:04,890 grabbed Monsanto's 1666 01:36:05,820 --> 01:36:08,940 Adam Curry: list of shareholders ownership structure. Sure. 1667 01:36:09,480 --> 01:36:12,870 John C Dvorak: So we have Blackrock death for different 1668 01:36:12,870 --> 01:36:19,440 divisions of Blackrock owned the following percentage of what 1669 01:36:19,440 --> 01:36:22,620 there's another one that wishes minor, there's four okay, 1670 01:36:22,620 --> 01:36:25,410 there's four divisions, different parts of Blackrock 1671 01:36:25,440 --> 01:36:28,110 men, they got all kinds of little comput little bits and 1672 01:36:28,110 --> 01:36:28,620 pieces. There's 1673 01:36:28,830 --> 01:36:30,570 Adam Curry: no one said they weren't good. I mean, they know 1674 01:36:30,570 --> 01:36:32,280 what the rock institutional 1675 01:36:32,280 --> 01:36:37,470 John C Dvorak: trust the big boy wants 2.2% of Monsanto, wow, 1676 01:36:37,680 --> 01:36:42,180 Blackrock wishes a lot. BlackRock fund advisors another 1677 01:36:42,180 --> 01:36:47,520 little spin of subset it owns 1.24, which brings it up to 3.6. 1678 01:36:48,360 --> 01:36:55,110 BlackRock Group, Ltd owns point seven 4% and BlackRock advisors 1679 01:36:55,110 --> 01:37:02,670 owns point one, five. So maybe 4% of Monsanto is held by 1680 01:37:02,670 --> 01:37:06,930 Blackrock so this is not owning in the sense that the public 1681 01:37:06,930 --> 01:37:11,520 would see it. Oh, by the way, Black Rock Japan wins point one 1682 01:37:11,520 --> 01:37:16,620 one that's a good one. They own a lot of stock, but it's like 1683 01:37:16,620 --> 01:37:18,900 they you know, and they have a lot of influence because that's 1684 01:37:18,900 --> 01:37:23,520 a lot of voters when it comes to the voting stock. But that's not 1685 01:37:23,550 --> 01:37:27,300 the same as we think of when we think of somebody owning it. 1686 01:37:27,300 --> 01:37:31,830 They own for it say they own if they own to 5% That's still just 1687 01:37:31,830 --> 01:37:32,580 5% 1688 01:37:32,610 --> 01:37:35,670 Adam Curry: How about Vanguard because I think that that's the 1689 01:37:35,670 --> 01:37:39,210 real you know, Blackrock gets all the bad press 1690 01:37:40,230 --> 01:37:42,030 John C Dvorak: Oh, they're just not even on this list with 1691 01:37:42,030 --> 01:37:43,140 Monsanto. Oh, 1692 01:37:43,140 --> 01:37:49,110 Adam Curry: I have I'm looking at Vanguards when is this from I 1693 01:37:49,110 --> 01:37:54,330 don't have I don't have to Oh, this 2013 I'll bet you Vanguard 1694 01:37:54,630 --> 01:37:58,110 owns more that's what all the politics all the politicians are 1695 01:37:58,110 --> 01:38:02,820 in Vanguard. That's what they all get in on then the funny 1696 01:38:02,820 --> 01:38:05,310 thing is that you just have you know this you just get it on the 1697 01:38:05,310 --> 01:38:12,840 bonds. I love the inflation report. That made sense. Yeah, 1698 01:38:12,840 --> 01:38:19,530 everybody inflation Oh, it's not going down. Mm hmm. What are the 1699 01:38:19,530 --> 01:38:21,750 chances I bet you they're going to raise rates this year. 1700 01:38:23,190 --> 01:38:27,360 John C Dvorak: Nobody sees that. That's what they should do. 1701 01:38:28,110 --> 01:38:31,620 Yeah, nobody nobody sees that and they don't expect it and 1702 01:38:31,620 --> 01:38:34,260 they're waiting for more rate cuts. 1703 01:38:35,880 --> 01:38:38,310 Adam Curry: Well, the jobs report has been pulled apart by 1704 01:38:38,310 --> 01:38:39,600 all kinds of people. 1705 01:38:40,650 --> 01:38:42,990 John C Dvorak: And my favorite part of the jobs report pull 1706 01:38:42,990 --> 01:38:47,670 apart was the fact that most of the jobs that are are from been 1707 01:38:47,670 --> 01:38:52,680 given to illegal aliens well there's there's that breakout 1708 01:38:52,680 --> 01:38:52,980 Yeah, 1709 01:38:53,010 --> 01:38:55,800 Adam Curry: that that government jobs and a lot of people got a 1710 01:38:55,800 --> 01:38:59,910 second or third job. Right. And I'm seeing like the restaurant 1711 01:38:59,910 --> 01:39:02,700 industry every young person I know in the restaurant industry 1712 01:39:02,700 --> 01:39:08,580 has to get a second job because the hours are being cut. I don't 1713 01:39:08,580 --> 01:39:11,010 know if people just not going out to eat I don't know. It's 1714 01:39:11,010 --> 01:39:11,760 too expensive. The 1715 01:39:11,760 --> 01:39:14,010 John C Dvorak: restaurant business right now is not a 1716 01:39:14,160 --> 01:39:16,230 business. I'd want to be out good. Not good 1717 01:39:16,230 --> 01:39:21,690 Adam Curry: or, or the medical device business who are striking 1718 01:39:21,690 --> 01:39:26,190 back. They're striking back at ozempic. Here's a fun little 1719 01:39:26,190 --> 01:39:27,300 report on the medical 1720 01:39:27,300 --> 01:39:29,910 Unknown: watch bypassing diabetes for the long haul. 1721 01:39:30,150 --> 01:39:33,210 medical reporter Dina bears here with some new insight Dino 1722 01:39:33,450 --> 01:39:33,810 Florida 1723 01:39:33,810 --> 01:39:37,470 son Pat bypass surgery helps patients lose weight and shed a 1724 01:39:37,470 --> 01:39:40,710 diabetes diagnosis. Now researchers at the American 1725 01:39:40,710 --> 01:39:44,460 College of Surgeons say even if the weight comes back diabetes 1726 01:39:44,460 --> 01:39:48,450 stays away. looking at data from nearly 300 people treated at 1727 01:39:48,450 --> 01:39:53,910 Mayo Clinic from 2008 to 2017. Doctors found gastric bypass 1728 01:39:53,940 --> 01:39:58,740 improves long term type two diabetes remission 75% of bypass 1729 01:39:58,740 --> 01:40:02,070 patients did not see their diabetes return. And for those 1730 01:40:02,070 --> 01:40:06,570 who gained every bit of weight back 60% still remained diabetes 1731 01:40:06,570 --> 01:40:07,020 free. 1732 01:40:07,380 --> 01:40:10,110 Adam Curry: Yeah, stop with the ozempic people get your get your 1733 01:40:10,110 --> 01:40:10,800 LapBand 1734 01:40:10,830 --> 01:40:14,730 John C Dvorak: get you get good get out of the operating table. 1735 01:40:14,790 --> 01:40:15,600 That's right. 1736 01:40:15,660 --> 01:40:18,900 Adam Curry: That's right. And there's no ZMP class action now. 1737 01:40:18,900 --> 01:40:24,420 That is there's ramping up. And this was really I was surprised 1738 01:40:24,420 --> 01:40:28,920 by by this report from ABC. I guess they're not getting enough 1739 01:40:29,040 --> 01:40:30,450 ad money. US government 1740 01:40:30,450 --> 01:40:32,610 Unknown: officials say they're looking into the practices of 1741 01:40:32,610 --> 01:40:35,700 powerful middlemen in relation to a critical shortage of 1742 01:40:35,700 --> 01:40:39,630 generic drugs. The FTC is focusing on drug distributors 1743 01:40:39,690 --> 01:40:42,540 and other companies in the supply chain that buy medicines 1744 01:40:42,540 --> 01:40:45,750 for hospitals, those middlemen are accused of drive driving 1745 01:40:45,750 --> 01:40:46,620 prices higher. 1746 01:40:48,240 --> 01:40:51,420 Adam Curry: I'm talking a little bit nasty. This money, so about 1747 01:40:51,420 --> 01:40:59,880 money. I do have a clip here from Janet Yellen, who is very 1748 01:40:59,880 --> 01:41:03,960 confident about our economy, despite the inflation, which of 1749 01:41:03,960 --> 01:41:07,170 course is because our president is on the ball. We 1750 01:41:07,170 --> 01:41:09,630 Unknown: hit the road with Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen 1751 01:41:09,630 --> 01:41:12,510 and the battleground state of Michigan, where the economy is 1752 01:41:12,510 --> 01:41:16,740 one of voters top concerns do you think the President can win 1753 01:41:16,740 --> 01:41:18,150 in Michigan in November? 1754 01:41:18,900 --> 01:41:23,430 Well, I certainly hope so. I think the economy is going to be 1755 01:41:23,430 --> 01:41:24,600 good and strong 1756 01:41:24,690 --> 01:41:29,100 inflation Rose 3.1%. In January more than expected driving the 1757 01:41:29,100 --> 01:41:32,880 higher prices, car insurance surged 21% Over the last year, 1758 01:41:33,060 --> 01:41:37,650 rent has risen 6% and daycare costs are up 5%. Are you and 1759 01:41:37,650 --> 01:41:41,130 President Biden happy with where inflation is right now? Super 1760 01:41:41,130 --> 01:41:41,640 happy? 1761 01:41:41,730 --> 01:41:45,630 Well, look, we know that Americans are experiencing 1762 01:41:46,260 --> 01:41:54,210 discomfort because important prices risk are higher than they 1763 01:41:54,210 --> 01:41:58,590 were pre pandemic. But what I think is really important is 1764 01:41:58,590 --> 01:42:04,290 that wages have gone up along with causes. So people are 1765 01:42:04,290 --> 01:42:08,580 better off than they were pre pandemic. 1766 01:42:08,700 --> 01:42:11,670 Another hurdle for the Biden campaign voter concerns about 1767 01:42:11,670 --> 01:42:15,210 his age, again, a focus after Special Counsel Robert hars 1768 01:42:15,210 --> 01:42:18,780 report questioning the President's mental fitness it 1769 01:42:18,870 --> 01:42:22,410 called President Biden a well meaning elderly man with a poor 1770 01:42:22,410 --> 01:42:24,300 memory. Do you agree with that? 1771 01:42:24,330 --> 01:42:28,440 I absolutely disagree with that.

And of course, we 1868 01:48:17,550 --> 01:48:22,770 cannot have this, the news model has to jump in. And he has to 1869 01:48:23,220 --> 01:48:28,260 stop this nonsense. But it's worth listening to the absolute 1870 01:48:29,940 --> 01:48:34,500 frustration and despair in this man Scottish accented voice. 1871 01:48:34,650 --> 01:48:38,070 Unknown: My name is John Wall.

Right? know, it's like 1923 01:51:50,700 --> 01:51:54,030 someone sent me this note and said, I'm attaching a picture. 1924 01:51:54,270 --> 01:51:57,810 And luckily he didn't attach a picture.

Yes, 1930 01:52:13,230 --> 01:52:15,270 Adam Curry: this is a big one. We're still on deck all 1931 01:52:15,270 --> 01:52:18,720 happening in Eagle Pass one little swath of land that has a 1932 01:52:18,720 --> 01:52:19,110 fence 1933 01:52:19,110 --> 01:52:22,230 Unknown: 45 US lawmakers scientists amicus brief this 1934 01:52:22,230 --> 01:52:25,350 week supporting Texas in a legal case against the Justice 1935 01:52:25,350 --> 01:52:28,560 Department. The Biden administration is suing Texas 1936 01:52:28,560 --> 01:52:32,310 over a new law known as Senate Bill four. Governor Greg Abbott 1937 01:52:32,310 --> 01:52:36,060 signed it into law in December. Now Senate Bill four gives Texas 1938 01:52:36,060 --> 01:52:38,940 police the authority to arrest illegal immigrants for 1939 01:52:38,940 --> 01:52:42,480 trespassing once they entered the Lone Star State. Now the 1940 01:52:42,480 --> 01:52:45,810 Justice Department argues that Texas can't do that because 1941 01:52:45,810 --> 01:52:49,080 arresting immigrants falls under federal authority. But 1942 01:52:49,080 --> 01:52:52,530 representative Jody Arrington, who leads the 45 lawmakers 1943 01:52:52,560 --> 01:52:54,930 disagrees watch. Not 1944 01:52:54,930 --> 01:52:59,220 only is this President and Secretary failing to provide for 1945 01:52:59,220 --> 01:53:04,200 a common defense, and willfully disregarding the laws of the 1946 01:53:04,200 --> 01:53:11,490 land. They are obstructing our state's effort to protect our 1947 01:53:11,490 --> 01:53:13,470 citizens and defend our border. 1948 01:53:13,740 --> 01:53:16,890 Meanwhile, the new numbers show that the month of January saw 1949 01:53:16,890 --> 01:53:20,580 over 176,000 immigrant encounters at the southern 1950 01:53:20,580 --> 01:53:24,420 border. That's more than any January ever before breaking the 1951 01:53:24,420 --> 01:53:29,520 previous record set in 2023. With nearly 160,000 encounters. 1952 01:53:29,580 --> 01:53:33,540 Adam Curry: That's right. That's why wages are going up. It's, 1953 01:53:33,900 --> 01:53:39,090 you know, he mentioned amicus brief. There's there's been an 1954 01:53:39,090 --> 01:53:43,080 update from our constitutional lawyer, Rob, who has been 1955 01:53:43,080 --> 01:53:47,220 tracking them as men, Missouri versus Biden case, Supreme 1956 01:53:47,220 --> 01:53:49,560 Court. And that's, you know, that's basically where the 1957 01:53:49,560 --> 01:53:53,310 administration was threatening Twitter and other social media 1958 01:53:53,310 --> 01:53:59,490 companies to take down accounts and posts etc. And our 1959 01:53:59,490 --> 01:54:02,850 constitutional lawyer said, hey, you know, I'm very happy to 1960 01:54:02,850 --> 01:54:07,230 write an amicus brief for the no agenda show. And I said, Well, 1961 01:54:07,260 --> 01:54:10,320 why don't we do this? Because it's kind of cool to have the no 1962 01:54:10,320 --> 01:54:13,650 agenda show, you know, registered with the Supreme 1963 01:54:13,650 --> 01:54:17,940 Court. I don't know. He says, All right, 1964 01:54:17,940 --> 01:54:19,620 John C Dvorak: as I just explained it a little more 1965 01:54:19,620 --> 01:54:20,280 detail. 1966 01:54:20,760 --> 01:54:21,450 Adam Curry: What do you mean, 1967 01:54:21,960 --> 01:54:23,880 John C Dvorak: what would the brief be regarding? 1968 01:54:24,180 --> 01:54:26,730 Adam Curry: Well, it would well, this is the point is we have to 1969 01:54:26,760 --> 01:54:30,030 we have to come up with a reason to say yeah, you know, this is 1970 01:54:30,030 --> 01:54:33,390 wrong podcast go podcasting. That's that's the basic idea. 1971 01:54:33,750 --> 01:54:38,550 John C Dvorak: I see you go podcasting angle. 1972 01:54:39,300 --> 01:54:41,610 Adam Curry: We could put it a go podcasting angle and so much, 1973 01:54:42,180 --> 01:54:44,910 but it would be the no agenda show with me. I 1974 01:54:44,910 --> 01:54:47,340 John C Dvorak: would like to have I think we should go ahead 1975 01:54:47,340 --> 01:54:48,450 with this. Okay, 1976 01:54:48,510 --> 01:54:51,630 Adam Curry: here we go. And how do we 1977 01:54:51,660 --> 01:54:53,790 John C Dvorak: don't have an end because I'd like to have more 1978 01:54:53,790 --> 01:54:56,100 clarification. Okay. That would help. 1979 01:54:56,130 --> 01:55:00,000 Adam Curry: He said as for no agenda amicus brief one he this 1980 01:55:00,000 --> 01:55:03,990 He writes the meat one brackets. If a case is important to y'all, 1981 01:55:04,740 --> 01:55:09,120 this is, please don't write that in our advocate. If a case is 1982 01:55:09,120 --> 01:55:12,390 important to y'all, why not have your position considered by the 1983 01:55:12,390 --> 01:55:15,390 justices sitting on the highest court in the land and possibly 1984 01:55:15,390 --> 01:55:18,600 get a mention somewhere? Yes. Sometimes an amicus brief moves 1985 01:55:18,600 --> 01:55:22,920 the needle making a difference on an important case. That's 1986 01:55:22,920 --> 01:55:24,660 his, that's his his MO. 1987 01:55:25,170 --> 01:55:27,480 John C Dvorak: Okay, so we need to find some cases that we want 1988 01:55:27,480 --> 01:55:30,750 to throw throw some amicus briefs into, I think 1989 01:55:30,750 --> 01:55:32,790 Adam Curry: we have we do more than one. I think we have plenty 1990 01:55:32,790 --> 01:55:37,380 of producers who were who had post taken down who were shadow 1991 01:55:37,380 --> 01:55:40,560 banned. I mean, I think we have an entire audience filled with 1992 01:55:40,560 --> 01:55:44,640 people who had that happen. So maybe we take a couple of those. 1993 01:55:45,210 --> 01:55:45,870 Okay, well, 1994 01:55:45,870 --> 01:55:50,280 John C Dvorak: let's just discuss this in in our, we're 1995 01:55:50,280 --> 01:55:53,730 not going to have a meeting. I'm not gonna be in or after show. 1996 01:55:54,240 --> 01:55:55,230 Post mortem. 1997 01:55:55,260 --> 01:55:58,830 Adam Curry: I don't want a meeting. That does not do 1998 01:55:58,830 --> 01:56:04,380 meetings. I do want to hear your series of clips about meta 1999 01:56:04,380 --> 01:56:05,580 versus AI. 2000 01:56:05,790 --> 01:56:08,010 John C Dvorak: Yes, these I put off from the last show this meta 2001 01:56:08,010 --> 01:56:12,150 versus AI versus PBS. For some reason I like these because 2002 01:56:12,150 --> 01:56:17,790 there's a there's because there's some there's some twists 2003 01:56:17,850 --> 01:56:21,270 in clip two and three. So let's start with clip one meta versus 2004 01:56:21,300 --> 01:56:22,980 AI versus PBS 2005 01:56:23,040 --> 01:56:26,070 Unknown: earlier this week as the 2024 election campaigns 2006 01:56:26,070 --> 01:56:29,850 picked up steam, Mehta announced it would start labeling AI 2007 01:56:29,850 --> 01:56:33,990 generated images that appear on Facebook, Instagram and threads 2008 01:56:34,140 --> 01:56:37,650 to help users better judge what they're seeing. In December an 2009 01:56:37,650 --> 01:56:42,210 advocacy group called Free Press said meta YouTube and ex have 2010 01:56:42,210 --> 01:56:45,960 rolled back a total of 17 policies intended to protect 2011 01:56:45,960 --> 01:56:48,090 against hate speech and misinformation. 2012 01:56:49,440 --> 01:56:52,200 Adam Curry: Oh, that's very confusing. What exactly is 2013 01:56:52,200 --> 01:56:54,150 John C Dvorak: another one of these that we're seeing more and 2014 01:56:54,150 --> 01:56:56,970 more of these if there was one earlier in the show these what I 2015 01:56:56,970 --> 01:57:04,650 consider to be an non sequitur. Opening to some topic? Well, how 2016 01:57:04,650 --> 01:57:11,580 do you get from from the labeling AI generated images 2017 01:57:11,580 --> 01:57:15,030 which I've starting to see the people labeling I'm not labeling 2018 01:57:15,090 --> 01:57:18,540 as AI, they're labeling the sources wall E or whatever those 2019 01:57:18,540 --> 01:57:19,080 things are? 2020 01:57:19,200 --> 01:57:21,960 Adam Curry: Oh, yeah. Dolly, Dolly, Dolly. 2021 01:57:22,200 --> 01:57:23,250 Unknown: Wall is the movie. 2022 01:57:24,720 --> 01:57:31,980 John C Dvorak: Wall the AI I love it, Wally. And so So then 2023 01:57:31,980 --> 01:57:34,680 he goes from that to hate speech? I don't know. I think it 2024 01:57:34,680 --> 01:57:40,680 must have to do with, I guess. Ai images in memes, which tend 2025 01:57:40,680 --> 01:57:44,790 to be I think most memes are hate speech and be defined as 2026 01:57:44,790 --> 01:57:48,570 hate speech because they're always slam and some just bad 2027 01:57:48,570 --> 01:57:52,830 comedy, most of them. So here we go. It's now here we got clip 2028 01:57:52,830 --> 01:57:55,800 two and I have the word dud written. Okay. 2029 01:57:56,220 --> 01:57:58,470 Unknown: The group also said layoffs if the three companies 2030 01:57:58,470 --> 01:58:02,220 make it harder to enforce the safeguards that remain. Katie 2031 01:58:02,220 --> 01:58:05,670 Harbeth is the chief global affairs officer at duco, which 2032 01:58:05,670 --> 01:58:08,970 is a technology consulting firm. She's also a former public 2033 01:58:08,970 --> 01:58:12,690 policy director at Facebook. Katie, this announcement from 2034 01:58:12,690 --> 01:58:17,700 Mehta how big a deal is it? How helpful is this going to be? And 2035 01:58:17,700 --> 01:58:18,570 is it enough? 2036 01:58:19,260 --> 01:58:25,080 So I think that this is just one of many important steps that to 2037 01:58:25,080 --> 01:58:27,990 take when thinking about safeguarding elections, not only 2038 01:58:27,990 --> 01:58:31,440 here in the United States, but around the globe. And so we are 2039 01:58:31,440 --> 01:58:35,940 facing new challenges with AI as well as existing challenges that 2040 01:58:35,940 --> 01:58:38,430 have been around for a long time, such as missing 2041 01:58:38,430 --> 01:58:41,580 disinformation, foreign interference, transparency 2042 01:58:41,610 --> 01:58:44,850 around political ads. And I think one of the challenges as 2043 01:58:44,850 --> 01:58:47,670 we go into this cycle is that that question of whether or not 2044 01:58:47,670 --> 01:58:51,780 these platforms are prepared is we just don't know because they 2045 01:58:51,780 --> 01:58:54,000 are also putting in a lot of vestment. They're making a lot 2046 01:58:54,000 --> 01:58:57,210 of changes, as you mentioned, but we also don't know the 2047 01:58:57,210 --> 01:59:00,330 twists and turns that await for us over the course of this next 2048 01:59:00,330 --> 01:59:03,360 year. And so the real question, the real proof of this will be 2049 01:59:03,360 --> 01:59:07,440 how these companies act as these different elections happen. And 2050 01:59:07,440 --> 01:59:11,310 as we see different forms of nefarious interference happen. 2051 01:59:11,610 --> 01:59:12,540 Nefarious 2052 01:59:12,540 --> 01:59:15,150 Adam Curry: interference, you nefarious 2053 01:59:15,150 --> 01:59:18,600 John C Dvorak: interference. Hmm. So what is she talking 2054 01:59:18,600 --> 01:59:19,200 about? 2055 01:59:20,790 --> 01:59:22,680 Adam Curry: That Epstein pictures are coming out and it 2056 01:59:22,680 --> 01:59:24,030 has to be deemed AI 2057 01:59:25,140 --> 01:59:27,630 John C Dvorak: you know, I started I'm not a big fan of 2058 01:59:27,630 --> 01:59:31,140 this thesis as yours at least initially. But as as this 2059 01:59:31,140 --> 01:59:34,980 continues in like our stories like this, I'm starting to warm 2060 01:59:34,980 --> 01:59:35,640 up to it. 2061 01:59:35,670 --> 01:59:38,250 Adam Curry: It will if we don't send more money to Israel is 2062 01:59:38,250 --> 01:59:41,550 going to happen. The Epstein pictures are coming is coming 2063 01:59:41,580 --> 01:59:45,450 that this has been going on for this op has been going on for a 2064 01:59:45,450 --> 01:59:50,490 long time. It's time to lay mail. Yes, they need to lay some 2065 01:59:50,490 --> 01:59:52,380 smack down and show some pictures. 2066 01:59:53,610 --> 01:59:55,590 John C Dvorak: But something's coming up at eight. Let's go to 2067 01:59:55,590 --> 01:59:59,640 part three with the witch I have to comment on this one as stooge 2068 01:59:59,730 --> 02:00:00,210 does Just 2069 02:00:00,210 --> 02:00:02,940 Unknown: one of the biggest open questions for me. Many of the 2070 02:00:02,970 --> 02:00:05,790 some of the platforms such as meta have actually announced 2071 02:00:05,970 --> 02:00:08,160 things that they're doing for the upcoming Indonesian 2072 02:00:08,160 --> 02:00:11,760 elections for the Mexico elections coming up. But they're 2073 02:00:11,760 --> 02:00:14,340 just not being as transparent about that. And what that means 2074 02:00:14,340 --> 02:00:17,580 around the globe. Traditionally, we have seen just a lot more 2075 02:00:17,580 --> 02:00:21,270 time, money and effort put into the English language into 2076 02:00:21,300 --> 02:00:25,260 elections in the US in the EU. And I am worried that so much 2077 02:00:25,260 --> 02:00:28,230 attention is going to get sucked into those elections that we 2078 02:00:28,230 --> 02:00:31,620 will forget about these elections all around the globe, 2079 02:00:31,710 --> 02:00:34,710 that will have just as much impact in terms of the future of 2080 02:00:34,710 --> 02:00:38,670 the global world order and how we handle issues on everything 2081 02:00:38,670 --> 02:00:41,940 from from climate change to other geopolitical issues. 2082 02:00:42,810 --> 02:00:46,410 Adam Curry: Brother, she had to bring that in I like, I like the 2083 02:00:46,410 --> 02:00:49,710 political stuff, and then you bring in climate change. Yeah, 2084 02:00:49,770 --> 02:00:53,850 John C Dvorak: always has to bring it in. It's no good. So 2085 02:00:53,850 --> 02:01:00,570 those three clips were was was a disappointment. Linda, I want to 2086 02:01:00,570 --> 02:01:03,420 run off this clip though. This is I've been saving this for 2087 02:01:03,420 --> 02:01:05,550 weeks and weeks because we have not discussed it but this is 2088 02:01:05,550 --> 02:01:11,430 something that we did discuss probably two or three years ago, 2089 02:01:11,430 --> 02:01:15,330 maybe even pre COVID. Wow. Because there was some shooting 2090 02:01:15,330 --> 02:01:17,430 in Slovenia or something and then 2091 02:01:18,090 --> 02:01:21,540 Adam Curry: yes, the kids the parents got convicted. 2092 02:01:22,200 --> 02:01:24,480 John C Dvorak: And the parents in Slovenia got it. Well, it 2093 02:01:24,480 --> 02:01:26,850 looks like we're heading in the same direction. This is the 2094 02:01:26,850 --> 02:01:31,350 Michigan mom on trial. This is a democracy now clip but I don't 2095 02:01:31,350 --> 02:01:35,760 think it's Amy so don't play anything. And this is this is a 2096 02:01:35,760 --> 02:01:39,420 big deal. That is really nice. still flying a little bit under 2097 02:01:39,420 --> 02:01:40,110 the radar. 2098 02:01:40,230 --> 02:01:43,770 Unknown: And Michigan a jury has convicted Jennifer crumbly of 2099 02:01:43,770 --> 02:01:47,550 four counts of involuntary manslaughter for a deadly school 2100 02:01:47,550 --> 02:01:51,000 shooting carried out by her 15 year old son at Oxford High 2101 02:01:51,000 --> 02:01:55,560 School and 2021 Prosecutors argued Crumbley had a duty to 2102 02:01:55,560 --> 02:01:59,040 prevent her son from going on the rampage which killed four 2103 02:01:59,040 --> 02:02:01,920 students in what was Michigan's deadliest school shooting. 2104 02:02:02,340 --> 02:02:05,100 Adam Curry: Yeah. Yeah, I 2105 02:02:05,100 --> 02:02:08,100 John C Dvorak: saw that. Going under trial to the get and both 2106 02:02:08,100 --> 02:02:11,700 parents are gonna get both parents for the kid shooting. 2107 02:02:11,970 --> 02:02:20,550 This is I don't want to sound like a fraud Yes, I always sound 2108 02:02:20,550 --> 02:02:23,340 like a fuddy duddy that's beside the point. I think this is the 2109 02:02:23,340 --> 02:02:29,730 go after the black Americans. Oh, they have more kids like in 2110 02:02:29,730 --> 02:02:33,840 Oakland. There's murders going on all the time and as lot of 2111 02:02:33,840 --> 02:02:37,350 juveniles doing them I think they're going to start going 2112 02:02:37,350 --> 02:02:41,400 after Black dad to take find some real estate a white example 2113 02:02:41,400 --> 02:02:44,910 is do the white man first. Wow. Let's run this one down and see 2114 02:02:44,910 --> 02:02:47,640 what happens is anybody feeding back but negatively? No. 2115 02:02:47,640 --> 02:02:50,190 Nobody's feeding back negative. This looks good. We're not even 2116 02:02:50,190 --> 02:02:52,650 getting much coverage. You think you get more coverage than this? 2117 02:02:52,830 --> 02:02:56,850 Okay, let's start going after black parents for their wayward 2118 02:02:56,850 --> 02:03:00,720 kids shooting up to place in Oakland and elsewhere. 2119 02:03:01,860 --> 02:03:05,550 Interesting theory. Run that one by moe. 2120 02:03:06,780 --> 02:03:10,230 Adam Curry: I certainly will. And meanwhile in Chicago 2121 02:03:11,520 --> 02:03:16,200 whatever you do, let's let's let's take away tools. not 2122 02:03:16,200 --> 02:03:19,590 renewing Chicago is a multi million dollar contract with 2123 02:03:19,590 --> 02:03:23,520 sound thinking the company that runs the gunshot detection 2124 02:03:23,520 --> 02:03:28,320 system has long been on the mind of Brandon Johnson. Even before 2125 02:03:28,320 --> 02:03:29,790 he was elected mayor these 2126 02:03:29,790 --> 02:03:32,670 Unknown: tools have proven not to work can find a whole lot of 2127 02:03:32,670 --> 02:03:34,830 things we can spend $2 million on just 2128 02:03:34,830 --> 02:03:37,050 Adam Curry: months into his young administration. The 2129 02:03:37,050 --> 02:03:40,470 Mayor's office says it mistakenly electronically signed 2130 02:03:40,470 --> 02:03:44,430 a contract extension with a company that runs through Friday 2131 02:03:44,490 --> 02:03:48,030 Tuesday. He made good on a campaign promise, saying he 2132 02:03:48,030 --> 02:03:51,090 would end the contract but he wants to keep the gunfire 2133 02:03:51,090 --> 02:03:54,720 detection system online through the Democratic National 2134 02:03:54,720 --> 02:03:59,340 Convention set for Chicago in late August. Now city leaders 2135 02:03:59,340 --> 02:04:02,850 are hearing sound thinking may not agree to the one time 2136 02:04:02,850 --> 02:04:06,870 extension and shut the system down tomorrow. The system has 2137 02:04:06,870 --> 02:04:10,560 been the target of progressives for years, many agreeing with 2138 02:04:10,560 --> 02:04:14,490 the mayor that it is ineffective and leads to over policing. They 2139 02:04:14,490 --> 02:04:18,510 cite studies that show many gunshots detected don't lead to 2140 02:04:18,510 --> 02:04:22,200 arrests or prosecutions. Supporters however, question why 2141 02:04:22,200 --> 02:04:25,890 the city would want to get rid of any tool that helps Police 2142 02:04:25,920 --> 02:04:28,830 Police Superintendent Larry Snelling has made similar 2143 02:04:28,830 --> 02:04:31,680 arguments the company that own ShotSpotter sent a statement 2144 02:04:31,680 --> 02:04:34,470 last night that didn't mention whether it would stay with the 2145 02:04:34,470 --> 02:04:37,950 city through the DNC or shut it down tomorrow. It did however, 2146 02:04:37,950 --> 02:04:41,550 say it is proud of the work that it's done here in Chicago over 2147 02:04:41,550 --> 02:04:44,760 the past seven years and has helped located hundreds of 2148 02:04:44,760 --> 02:04:49,560 gunshot victims when no 911 call came in. It's very interesting. 2149 02:04:49,560 --> 02:04:53,100 The mayor made a campaign promise which was part of defund 2150 02:04:53,100 --> 02:04:56,430 the police. I think 40% of Chicago's budget goes towards 2151 02:04:56,430 --> 02:04:59,070 policing which is a lot certainly for the results. 2152 02:04:59,070 --> 02:05:03,060 They're getting At least the the the media results because most 2153 02:05:03,060 --> 02:05:07,500 of most of the gang warfare takes place in a very small 2154 02:05:07,500 --> 02:05:14,160 area. But the mayor said yeah, I want to keep it through the DNC 2155 02:05:14,160 --> 02:05:16,620 because it doesn't work. Yes, 2156 02:05:16,770 --> 02:05:19,620 John C Dvorak: I thought the same illogic was just stood out 2157 02:05:19,620 --> 02:05:22,110 like a sore thumb. It doesn't work, but we need it for the 2158 02:05:22,380 --> 02:05:23,610 moment. Yeah. 2159 02:05:24,750 --> 02:05:25,710 Adam Curry: Bam. Yeah, 2160 02:05:25,740 --> 02:05:28,470 John C Dvorak: it doesn't work. It doesn't work. The thing is it 2161 02:05:28,470 --> 02:05:31,500 does work. I think it works. I know they have it in Oakland, it 2162 02:05:31,500 --> 02:05:37,830 seems to do some good but Oakland Oakland Police was a 2163 02:05:37,830 --> 02:05:41,700 defund operation to they defunded the police and put in a 2164 02:05:41,820 --> 02:05:45,930 week District Attorney. So you wouldn't get anyone. So people 2165 02:05:45,930 --> 02:05:48,270 go left and right. And so they have all these issues, including 2166 02:05:48,270 --> 02:05:51,450 the NAACP coming out saying, hey, OLC was gonna do something. 2167 02:05:51,450 --> 02:05:54,060 And this is like an organization that, that, you know, that 2168 02:05:54,090 --> 02:05:57,870 rarely comes out and says anything about anything. At 2169 02:05:57,870 --> 02:06:00,480 least when it comes to like policing? Yeah. 2170 02:06:00,570 --> 02:06:05,850 Adam Curry: So I would say Yeah. As like we had that shooting in 2171 02:06:05,850 --> 02:06:10,500 Kansas City during the the Chiefs Super Bowl celebrations. 2172 02:06:11,160 --> 02:06:15,450 Yeah. Everyone's baffled like, Oh, we don't know how this could 2173 02:06:15,450 --> 02:06:20,490 happen if they've arrested four people. Ah, wrong skin color. 2174 02:06:20,700 --> 02:06:27,780 Ah, ah, we can't the How can I mean, Biden did his best. You 2175 02:06:27,780 --> 02:06:33,450 know, he tried to say, oh, you know, the gun problem gun 2176 02:06:33,450 --> 02:06:36,960 problem. here and let's see, I have a clip 2177 02:06:37,590 --> 02:06:38,370 Unknown: of your reaction to that 2178 02:06:38,370 --> 02:06:42,150 shooting in Kansas City. As the president and his wife admired 2179 02:06:42,150 --> 02:06:45,960 messages of love on the White House law love questions over a 2180 02:06:45,960 --> 02:06:50,430 fatal shooting struck a sharp contrast. As is often the case 2181 02:06:50,430 --> 02:06:53,850 after such tragedies in the United States, Joe Biden 2182 02:06:53,850 --> 02:06:57,570 released a statement condemning the violence and urging action 2183 02:06:57,600 --> 02:07:01,380 on gun reform. He called on Americans to make their voice 2184 02:07:01,380 --> 02:07:05,880 heard in Congress to finally act to ban assault weapons to limit 2185 02:07:05,880 --> 02:07:09,600 high capacity magazines and strengthen background checks. 2186 02:07:09,990 --> 02:07:13,560 Those sentiments were echoed by Vice President Kamala Harris, 2187 02:07:13,950 --> 02:07:22,800 the reality of it is. members of legislature in the United States 2188 02:07:23,310 --> 02:07:25,950 has had the courage to act with real. 2189 02:07:27,510 --> 02:07:29,190 Adam Curry: Now, what I find interesting about this 2190 02:07:29,430 --> 02:07:34,080 particular news clip is Kamala Harris is stepping out of Marine 2191 02:07:34,080 --> 02:07:38,310 One. What does she get to ride in the chopper? What is she 2192 02:07:38,310 --> 02:07:40,110 doing this? That's not typical. I 2193 02:07:40,110 --> 02:07:41,940 John C Dvorak: didn't know we have a secret service guy that 2194 02:07:42,300 --> 02:07:46,530 that was one of our show, producers. And he brings up a 2195 02:07:46,530 --> 02:07:49,320 lot of interesting points. He brought some some mistakes we 2196 02:07:49,320 --> 02:07:53,940 made last time, including the fact that when I was criticized 2197 02:07:53,970 --> 02:07:58,860 critical, Joe Biden, when the soldiers came back into into 2198 02:07:59,220 --> 02:08:00,720 Dover, Delaware airport, 2199 02:08:00,780 --> 02:08:03,750 Adam Curry: the other day was dignified transfers, the 2200 02:08:03,750 --> 02:08:04,830 dignified transfers, 2201 02:08:04,830 --> 02:08:06,810 John C Dvorak: it turns out, the deaths were they always take 2202 02:08:06,810 --> 02:08:09,930 place, so we should know that so anyone's saying else otherwise, 2203 02:08:09,930 --> 02:08:14,340 it's full of crap. And we and the families are never there at 2204 02:08:14,340 --> 02:08:17,160 the air at the airplane. They're inside the chapel where it's 2205 02:08:17,160 --> 02:08:19,920 private, and they don't take pictures right. He made that 2206 02:08:19,950 --> 02:08:23,040 made us clear that out and we appreciate that, but he wouldn't 2207 02:08:23,040 --> 02:08:26,880 know about this particular situation what's going on? And 2208 02:08:26,880 --> 02:08:30,000 how about the other shooting that nobody wants to talk about 2209 02:08:30,000 --> 02:08:35,700 at all?

I actually have a 2215 02:08:53,190 --> 02:09:00,540 clip Hold on a second cause cuz it was more related to Israel 2216 02:09:03,330 --> 02:09:06,090 John C Dvorak: we don't even know because the guys girl guy 2217 02:09:06,090 --> 02:09:10,590 whatever it is.

Stop this from getting any worse. This is 2226 02:09:35,250 --> 02:09:37,500 Adam Curry: this is not a good idea to go into any church 2227 02:09:37,500 --> 02:09:40,950 trying to shoot anything up these days. We're not in Texas. 2228 02:09:40,950 --> 02:09:46,020 No, no, no. Everybody's packing everybody the women are packing. 2229 02:09:47,220 --> 02:09:52,020 This is no but it's very sad.

No, it doesn't go anywhere. None 2234 02:10:14,550 --> 02:10:14,910 of it. 2235 02:10:16,470 --> 02:10:19,410 John C Dvorak: So Lloyd Austin's back again from the hospital 2236 02:10:19,410 --> 02:10:22,620 once again. Yeah, he had I think the emergency procedure what 2237 02:10:22,620 --> 02:10:26,370 happened he had they won't say but he's fine. He's got his 2238 02:10:26,370 --> 02:10:30,180 voice back. Of course his voice could easily be altered through 2239 02:10:30,210 --> 02:10:33,630 nefarious means because he's still just doing zoom calls and 2240 02:10:33,630 --> 02:10:37,440 he's seated. So I think he went back in because I think they got 2241 02:10:37,440 --> 02:10:40,500 the right guy, but he's still not tall enough so they keep 2242 02:10:40,500 --> 02:10:43,680 putting him in zoom meetings so you can see how tall he is. And 2243 02:10:43,680 --> 02:10:46,410 I think they're operating I think he's getting those leg 2244 02:10:46,410 --> 02:10:48,900 operations where they can add like two or three inches to your 2245 02:10:48,900 --> 02:10:51,270 by Nathan in your calves. 2246 02:10:51,300 --> 02:10:53,370 Unknown: Moon Landing was Secretary of Defense Lloyd 2247 02:10:53,370 --> 02:10:56,370 Austin hosted Hold on a second.

That's just one day after he was 2252 02:11:13,800 --> 02:11:16,710 released from the hospital following treatment for prostate 2253 02:11:16,710 --> 02:11:20,340 cancer. The Pentagon chief said he's in good condition he vowed 2254 02:11:20,340 --> 02:11:23,850 to support Ukraine even as future funding remains in doubt. 2255 02:11:23,940 --> 02:11:27,030 I plan to be in person with you today in Brussels, but I had to 2256 02:11:27,030 --> 02:11:30,600 return to the hospital for non surgical procedures. I'm in good 2257 02:11:30,600 --> 02:11:34,080 condition, and my cancer prognosis remains excellent and 2258 02:11:34,080 --> 02:11:37,740 I'm really grateful. For all the well wishes, the United States 2259 02:11:37,740 --> 02:11:42,150 continues to stay in Foursquare with Ukraine and America will 2260 02:11:42,150 --> 02:11:45,270 continue to support Ukraine's principal fight against Putin's 2261 02:11:45,270 --> 02:11:46,440 Imperial aggression. 2262 02:11:46,560 --> 02:11:49,950 Austin delivered opening remarks to the Ukraine defense contact 2263 02:11:49,950 --> 02:11:53,130 Gregory address Ukraine's urgent need for ammunition in its 2264 02:11:53,130 --> 02:11:56,850 ongoing conflict with Russia. The Pentagon has been unable to 2265 02:11:56,850 --> 02:12:00,510 send weapons to Ukraine since December due to a lack of funds. 2266 02:12:00,720 --> 02:12:04,830 The Senate on Tuesday passed a $95 billion aid bill for 2267 02:12:04,830 --> 02:12:08,340 Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. But House Speaker Johnson has 2268 02:12:08,340 --> 02:12:11,820 signaled he won't bring the bill to the House floor leaving its 2269 02:12:11,820 --> 02:12:12,990 fate uncertain. 2270 02:12:13,020 --> 02:12:16,650 Adam Curry: I like the Imperial aggression. How does that work 2271 02:12:16,650 --> 02:12:22,710 with a dictator? Is he a king?

So 2294 02:13:40,620 --> 02:13:42,660 Adam Curry: the way it works is once they say, Hey, we've 2295 02:13:42,660 --> 02:13:46,380 identified some foreign person, then they just go into the loop, 2296 02:13:46,380 --> 02:13:49,080 type it in, pull it up, and they can listen, they can read, they 2297 02:13:49,080 --> 02:13:53,400 can do whatever they want. And if if the if the conversation or 2298 02:13:53,400 --> 02:13:57,180 the communication is with an American citizen, they're 2299 02:13:57,180 --> 02:14:01,530 supposed to get what's called a FISA warrant, which means you 2300 02:14:01,530 --> 02:14:05,430 have to go and convince a secret judge in a secret room or a 2301 02:14:05,430 --> 02:14:09,870 judge in a secret room in a secret holiday secret day, very 2302 02:14:09,870 --> 02:14:12,990 secret day without any information, hey, we got it. We 2303 02:14:12,990 --> 02:14:16,860 have to listen to this American which is inherently illegal to 2304 02:14:16,860 --> 02:14:20,580 do but because of the FISA act, that's changed. And now there's 2305 02:14:20,580 --> 02:14:24,300 an amendment that says, You know what, we don't even need to have 2306 02:14:24,300 --> 02:14:28,110 a warrant. And Jake Sullivan dropped that debt pain in the 2307 02:14:28,110 --> 02:14:31,980 ass and Jake Sullivan, our national security advisor is all 2308 02:14:31,980 --> 02:14:32,760 in on it 2309 02:14:32,790 --> 02:14:35,280 Unknown: on FISA, there are a couple of amendments that are 2310 02:14:35,280 --> 02:14:38,820 being considered. One of them would require a warrant for 2311 02:14:38,820 --> 02:14:43,590 every query of data if that were to pass and get into the bill 2312 02:14:43,590 --> 02:14:47,190 with the President veto that bill. So 2313 02:14:47,190 --> 02:14:49,620 I'm not in a position to stand here today and make veto threats 2314 02:14:49,620 --> 02:14:54,030 on behalf of the President. Those are decisions for him to 2315 02:14:54,030 --> 02:14:57,210 make. What I will tell you is that we do not believe that that 2316 02:14:57,210 --> 02:14:59,610 serves the national security interests of the United States 2317 02:14:59,610 --> 02:15:03,510 and in fact fact, today I will be making that case to a number 2318 02:15:03,510 --> 02:15:07,440 of members, that the warrant requirement as conceived is not 2319 02:15:07,440 --> 02:15:10,500 the best way actually to ensure the protection of the personal 2320 02:15:10,500 --> 02:15:13,110 privacy and Americans. There are a number of other elements of 2321 02:15:13,110 --> 02:15:16,650 the bill that we have supported that would reform and update 2322 02:15:16,650 --> 02:15:20,220 FISA to protect the civil liberties of Americans. But a 2323 02:15:20,220 --> 02:15:23,160 warrant requirement from our perspective would go too far in 2324 02:15:23,160 --> 02:15:25,980 undermining the very purpose of FISA, and frankly, it would put 2325 02:15:25,980 --> 02:15:28,860 victims at risk. Oh, yeah. 2326 02:15:28,860 --> 02:15:32,850 John C Dvorak: What victims? The victims what victims have their 2327 02:15:32,850 --> 02:15:36,510 bandit that have been put at risk? Under any circumstance. 2328 02:15:36,540 --> 02:15:39,630 What are the victims? What is he talking about? 2329 02:15:40,140 --> 02:15:41,430 Adam Curry: Well, he's got a PowerPoint, there'll 2330 02:15:41,430 --> 02:15:44,580 John C Dvorak: be this is bullcrap. The only reason for 2331 02:15:44,580 --> 02:15:47,520 this whole setup is so you can spy on your political enemies 2332 02:15:47,520 --> 02:15:48,750 has nothing to do with there 2333 02:15:48,750 --> 02:15:51,630 Adam Curry: it is. There it is. There it is. And then finally, 2334 02:15:51,630 --> 02:15:57,660 before we take a break, despite a huge Super Bowl, which was the 2335 02:15:57,840 --> 02:16:03,870 second largest live televised event in American history, after 2336 02:16:03,870 --> 02:16:04,740 the moon landing 2337 02:16:08,790 --> 02:16:10,800 John C Dvorak: this year consistent this was 2338 02:16:10,800 --> 02:16:13,500 Adam Curry: live. I mean, it was actually the number one real 2339 02:16:13,500 --> 02:16:21,630 live event. Oh, there we go. Which I think had a huge 2340 02:16:21,630 --> 02:16:25,170 windfall they even had because of the Swift up they had lots of 2341 02:16:25,170 --> 02:16:29,790 female oriented ads, which is a typical other, are there and get 2342 02:16:29,790 --> 02:16:30,960 me some snacks woman. 2343 02:16:31,050 --> 02:16:33,930 John C Dvorak: And then there was the bonanza of having over 2344 02:16:33,930 --> 02:16:37,410 time with those same expensive ad rates. Yeah. Which 2345 02:16:37,500 --> 02:16:42,480 apparently, he brought in over $600 million. That one show. So 2346 02:16:42,540 --> 02:16:43,710 687 or 2347 02:16:43,709 --> 02:16:50,609 Adam Curry: $600 in 800 jobs out, including, sadly, sadly, 2348 02:16:51,359 --> 02:16:55,829 our boy Jeff the gays, the poop mice earlier, he is out. Hey, 2349 02:16:55,859 --> 02:16:59,729 he's he's apparently he's a douche in the workplace. He who 2350 02:16:59,729 --> 02:17:03,449 says so the reports are saying that he had an HR dispute where 2351 02:17:03,449 --> 02:17:08,399 he was dressing down female journalists on the on the work 2352 02:17:08,399 --> 02:17:09,569 floor for 20 doing a 2353 02:17:09,570 --> 02:17:13,920 John C Dvorak: lousy work, maybe probably. But he doesn't seem 2354 02:17:13,920 --> 02:17:19,800 like the right guy to be a real aihole. Well, we've always liked 2355 02:17:19,800 --> 02:17:23,820 him on this show. He's one of our fan favorites. You can mark 2356 02:17:23,820 --> 02:17:24,600 it. Here's how 2357 02:17:24,600 --> 02:17:29,790 Adam Curry: the meeting went to no agenda guys like him out. Who 2358 02:17:29,790 --> 02:17:33,720 else? Oh, they'd like to pick the girl out. Now, we have a 2359 02:17:33,720 --> 02:17:37,620 different view of this. Because Catherine herridge, who came 2360 02:17:37,620 --> 02:17:42,720 from Fox went to the CIA Broadcast Systems was very 2361 02:17:42,720 --> 02:17:46,770 effective. She she gets inside information all the time. She's 2362 02:17:46,770 --> 02:17:51,990 always spilling the beans. We think it's a reassignment. 2363 02:17:52,680 --> 02:17:54,840 John C Dvorak: That was my thinking, Yes, we're definitely 2364 02:17:54,840 --> 02:17:56,130 reassignment. And 2365 02:17:56,130 --> 02:17:57,870 Adam Curry: where do you think she'll wind up? And where would 2366 02:17:57,870 --> 02:18:00,750 she be most effective? She hasn't looked you're gonna 2367 02:18:00,750 --> 02:18:02,970 John C Dvorak: wind up where she's, I'm gonna guess this. 2368 02:18:03,420 --> 02:18:08,580 She's gonna wind up where she's needed. And so that means that 2369 02:18:08,760 --> 02:18:14,340 wherever she shows up, that is an operation whatever news or 2370 02:18:14,790 --> 02:18:18,990 could be any media company whatsoever could be one nation 2371 02:18:18,990 --> 02:18:21,030 or whatever. You know, the thing that Chris cromoz and I could be 2372 02:18:21,030 --> 02:18:26,460 anywhere that places obviously on the needs work list, we you 2373 02:18:26,460 --> 02:18:30,000 know, you put these enemies list up on the blackboard and you 2374 02:18:30,000 --> 02:18:33,090 have these companies that need work. In other words, they're 2375 02:18:33,090 --> 02:18:36,360 not toeing the line I ever thought I don't have the right 2376 02:18:36,360 --> 02:18:39,150 CIA people in there. And so she's got it wherever she ends 2377 02:18:39,150 --> 02:18:42,000 up. That's what needs the workplace. And I think it's 2378 02:18:42,000 --> 02:18:45,960 going to be news nation, or something like that. Maybe? 2379 02:18:46,200 --> 02:18:46,740 Nope. 2380 02:18:46,800 --> 02:18:49,020 Adam Curry: I think she's gonna get a government job as a spokes 2381 02:18:49,020 --> 02:18:55,920 haul. I think that she could be a national security spokes hole. 2382 02:18:56,130 --> 02:19:00,630 She could be maybe Kirby Kirby is not doing well. Kirby is just 2383 02:19:00,630 --> 02:19:04,770 not bringing the bridge lace Kirby replace Kirby maybe, but I 2384 02:19:04,770 --> 02:19:07,770 think it's a government gig. That makes the most sense. Okay. 2385 02:19:08,340 --> 02:19:11,130 John C Dvorak: I'm going to take it one step further then. It's 2386 02:19:11,130 --> 02:19:15,090 going to be a government gig in the Trump administration. 2387 02:19:16,080 --> 02:19:21,720 Adam Curry: You won't last two seconds No, no, no, no, no, no I 2388 02:19:21,720 --> 02:19:22,110 don't think 2389 02:19:22,110 --> 02:19:24,870 John C Dvorak: so. CIA everyone's make a record 2390 02:19:24,870 --> 02:19:25,890 somebody make a recording. 2391 02:19:26,189 --> 02:19:28,019 Adam Curry: There's always a recording just call our friends 2392 02:19:28,019 --> 02:19:31,469 at the NSA and with that, I'd like to thank the morning to you 2393 02:19:31,679 --> 02:19:34,229 the man who put the scene in the bad comedy say hello to my 2394 02:19:34,229 --> 02:19:36,689 friend on the other end and one night he Mr. Johnson 2395 02:19:40,889 --> 02:19:42,869 John C Dvorak: Mr. Adam curry in the morning ships at sea boots 2396 02:19:42,869 --> 02:19:45,329 to the ground field near subs in the water and all the names and 2397 02:19:45,329 --> 02:19:46,109 dates out there in the 2398 02:19:46,109 --> 02:19:47,819 Adam Curry: morning to the to the troll rooms 2399 02:19:52,860 --> 02:19:59,760 last Thursday we had with 1742 today 1630 We're down we're down 2400 02:19:59,760 --> 02:20:06,690 to four all sit down 110 Trolls we've lost them we didn't even 2401 02:20:06,690 --> 02:20:11,790 play an Africa clip.

It's really true. Kids are back 2470 02:24:01,230 --> 02:24:04,770 doing what's sad about the blogs is kids are going on. I say 2471 02:24:04,770 --> 02:24:07,800 kids, I'm talking young kids at a time by kids. I'm talking 2472 02:24:07,800 --> 02:24:11,970 about 20s. And so they're reinventing the wheel like, oh, 2473 02:24:11,970 --> 02:24:16,710 yeah, I'm coding HTML from my blog. Dude. We invented systems 2474 02:24:16,710 --> 02:24:20,130 that do this for you. All you need, ultimately, is the RSS 2475 02:24:20,130 --> 02:24:24,240 feed and you're gonna see, they're gonna be apps. With the 2476 02:24:24,240 --> 02:24:25,980 RSS reader apps, they're coming, 2477 02:24:26,130 --> 02:24:27,840 John C Dvorak: and they're gonna start talking about eating a 2478 02:24:27,840 --> 02:24:29,340 cheese sandwich. 2479 02:24:31,590 --> 02:24:32,760 Adam Curry: Where does that come from? 2480 02:24:33,270 --> 02:24:37,260 John C Dvorak: That's the original blog post. Today, I had 2481 02:24:37,260 --> 02:24:39,780 a cheese sandwich. You know people talk about it everything 2482 02:24:39,780 --> 02:24:43,080 they did. Blogs are just journals of like diaries, open 2483 02:24:43,080 --> 02:24:44,580 diaries. It was nobody wanted to 2484 02:24:45,750 --> 02:24:48,330 Adam Curry: remember people you say, what do you do? It's a 2485 02:24:48,360 --> 02:24:53,220 blog. That's why it was web blogs, first web blog posts 2486 02:24:53,220 --> 02:24:58,380 about their life. Right, right. Well go look at Twitter and tell 2487 02:24:58,380 --> 02:25:01,200 me if people don't like posting about In life, here's 2488 02:25:01,200 --> 02:25:02,670 John C Dvorak: a picture of my food. 2489 02:25:06,540 --> 02:25:09,510 Adam Curry: So in return, all we only really asked for is that 2490 02:25:09,510 --> 02:25:12,690 you give us some time, talent or treasure, there's many ways you 2491 02:25:12,690 --> 02:25:17,130 can help the show. Our, our anonymous secret service person, 2492 02:25:17,520 --> 02:25:20,880 you know, this is great. This is this is very helpful this, this 2493 02:25:20,880 --> 02:25:23,880 gives us good insight, good information. There's lots of 2494 02:25:23,880 --> 02:25:27,270 people who everybody is an expert in something, give us a 2495 02:25:27,270 --> 02:25:30,420 boots on the ground, it really helps the show, send us some 2496 02:25:30,420 --> 02:25:32,820 clips, something you found. I mean, I'm playing local clips 2497 02:25:32,820 --> 02:25:37,620 for the I don't I don't get all these ABC local news cast, but 2498 02:25:37,620 --> 02:25:41,130 other people do. They send clips or send a link. All of that is 2499 02:25:41,130 --> 02:25:45,210 extremely helpful. And you can do it with as I said, time, 2500 02:25:45,270 --> 02:25:49,290 talent or treasure, time. And talent is definitely something 2501 02:25:49,290 --> 02:25:55,200 that our artists put into the mix all the time. And we have to 2502 02:25:55,200 --> 02:25:58,650 choose, it's always hard, I will admit it, but we have to choose 2503 02:25:58,950 --> 02:26:03,660 from one of the many submitted images for our album art, which 2504 02:26:03,660 --> 02:26:07,740 works very well because people talk about it, people notice it, 2505 02:26:07,770 --> 02:26:12,030 it shows up in all the podcast apps as new art. Our pick for 2506 02:26:12,030 --> 02:26:15,780 Superbowl Sunday was controversial to say the least. 2507 02:26:17,430 --> 02:26:20,520 John C Dvorak: There was I got no feedback on it whatsoever. 2508 02:26:21,330 --> 02:26:24,660 Adam Curry: The ex was full of feedback, I would say, there 2509 02:26:24,660 --> 02:26:28,350 were eight out of 10 were extremely positive. I even read 2510 02:26:28,350 --> 02:26:33,360 things. Let's say I can't wait to listen to this show. And 2511 02:26:33,360 --> 02:26:36,330 there were several women who were very unhappy with it. Who 2512 02:26:36,330 --> 02:26:41,220 asked what was wrong with us. It's disgusting. And this was a 2513 02:26:41,220 --> 02:26:47,160 but in a but random by hot pants with a no agenda, which was well 2514 02:26:47,160 --> 02:26:51,510 done, by the way by Francisco's very hard to do what he did. And 2515 02:26:51,540 --> 02:26:55,050 but you know it's like there was just there were some commenters 2516 02:26:55,050 --> 02:26:57,960 were just there was no there was no arguing with this is 2517 02:26:58,110 --> 02:27:02,940 horrible. Somebody actually said it was triggering to him or to 2518 02:27:02,940 --> 02:27:06,750 his wife and like, tell me more probably his wife when he said 2519 02:27:06,750 --> 02:27:10,290 it was his wife, but I'm like, Well, that was him rejiggering. 2520 02:27:10,680 --> 02:27:11,910 I mean how triggering to 2521 02:27:11,910 --> 02:27:14,220 John C Dvorak: what was she after she signed up to play site 2522 02:27:14,220 --> 02:27:16,590 or item schicken you min? 2523 02:27:17,070 --> 02:27:19,470 Adam Curry: I don't know. I don't know. But it was it was 2524 02:27:19,470 --> 02:27:22,800 seen as very unfriendly by 2% of the 2525 02:27:23,070 --> 02:27:26,310 John C Dvorak: but it's a callate callate pages, but 2526 02:27:26,310 --> 02:27:31,650 countless pitches. Yeah, look Ocala pitches. How do you spend 2527 02:27:31,650 --> 02:27:35,730 so it was taken from an earlier piece that he did I guess Scarah 2528 02:27:35,730 --> 02:27:39,900 manga heard us complaining about using Taylor Swift and suppose 2529 02:27:39,900 --> 02:27:43,740 it was a backside shot is Taylor Swift even though I know she has 2530 02:27:43,740 --> 02:27:46,830 a but that's that callate pitches but you don't know. 2531 02:27:48,180 --> 02:27:50,670 Adam Curry: She does not have a caliphate just but so 2532 02:27:50,670 --> 02:27:55,620 John C Dvorak: she had but that was a but and on the back of a 2533 02:27:55,710 --> 02:27:57,660 player or somebody 2534 02:27:57,900 --> 02:28:00,870 Adam Curry: number 87 It was Travis Yeah, it 2535 02:28:00,870 --> 02:28:05,910 John C Dvorak: was it was Travis's number. Yeah. And so we 2536 02:28:05,910 --> 02:28:10,110 picked it knowing that we probably would get some negative 2537 02:28:10,530 --> 02:28:10,650 t 2538 02:28:10,650 --> 02:28:13,500 Adam Curry: shirts not calla pigeon, you said calla PID. Yes, 2539 02:28:13,500 --> 02:28:14,820 I'm going 2540 02:28:14,820 --> 02:28:17,070 John C Dvorak: to call it pigeon is one version of the word 2541 02:28:17,070 --> 02:28:20,340 McCallum PID just I think is the 2542 02:28:20,460 --> 02:28:23,160 Adam Curry: world callus the hallowed kitchen. According to 2543 02:28:23,160 --> 02:28:28,110 Merriam Webster, literally is having shapely buttocks. 2544 02:28:28,650 --> 02:28:30,540 John C Dvorak: Yes, that's exactly right. That's 2545 02:28:31,830 --> 02:28:35,460 Adam Curry: a Oh, how about this? For the women who complain 2546 02:28:36,630 --> 02:28:40,110 everyone's it's okay for Kim Kardashian to be all over your 2547 02:28:40,110 --> 02:28:42,690 timeline with her Calla peage isness. 2548 02:28:43,020 --> 02:28:45,270 John C Dvorak: She doesn't have a kid in my opinion. She got 2549 02:28:45,270 --> 02:28:49,590 he's got a big ass. It's a big difference. She got she got a 2550 02:28:49,590 --> 02:28:54,330 big giant but doesn't really she got to bbl. Well, whatever. 2551 02:28:54,330 --> 02:28:55,260 She's got Brazilian 2552 02:28:55,260 --> 02:28:59,100 Adam Curry: Butt Lift. Yeah, but that's okay. And what I hear 2553 02:28:59,100 --> 02:29:03,090 then is you go girl, but then when the no agenda show show 2554 02:29:03,090 --> 02:29:07,890 some calla pigeon. We're like, You're disgusting. You're 2555 02:29:07,890 --> 02:29:13,230 horrible. Mm hmm. Interesting, interesting double standard 2556 02:29:13,230 --> 02:29:17,070 ladies. Just saying. Let's take a look at some of the other 2557 02:29:17,070 --> 02:29:20,190 choices we had, which was what I basically said there was nothing 2558 02:29:20,190 --> 02:29:25,500 else there was nothing that hit it like that one. So, yes. See 2559 02:29:25,500 --> 02:29:27,480 John C Dvorak: if there was anything better than that. But 2560 02:29:27,480 --> 02:29:30,120 shot, we probably would have picked it. I 2561 02:29:30,120 --> 02:29:36,300 Adam Curry: agree. I agree. There was nothing. We had lots 2562 02:29:36,300 --> 02:29:39,210 of Taylor Swift images, which we said we would not use. I did 2563 02:29:39,210 --> 02:29:40,590 like the sports bowl. 2564 02:29:41,550 --> 02:29:44,820 John C Dvorak: Which was good, like just once. And 2565 02:29:44,820 --> 02:29:47,160 Adam Curry: I said, Can we do that and you went no, we're 2566 02:29:47,160 --> 02:29:48,150 doing the but 2567 02:29:48,870 --> 02:29:49,170 John C Dvorak: I 2568 02:29:50,460 --> 02:29:53,370 Adam Curry: that's exactly what I wrote it down. I have it here 2569 02:29:53,370 --> 02:29:56,520 in my notes. You said no, we're doing the butt. Okay, 2570 02:29:56,520 --> 02:29:59,460 John C Dvorak: where's this Borispol one. I also liked the 2571 02:29:59,460 --> 02:30:03,540 podcast. Winter Sports bowl one I don't not seeing it. It's I 2572 02:30:03,540 --> 02:30:05,700 Adam Curry: think it's Darren O'Neill. It just has the 2573 02:30:05,730 --> 02:30:08,490 football with no agenda force 2574 02:30:08,490 --> 02:30:10,920 John C Dvorak: bowl is just a football that was no good. And 2575 02:30:10,920 --> 02:30:11,340 the one 2576 02:30:11,370 --> 02:30:14,700 Adam Curry: what we would have chosen if it wasn't the wrong 2577 02:30:14,700 --> 02:30:17,190 day would have been the podcast hearts. 2578 02:30:17,400 --> 02:30:19,800 John C Dvorak: Yes, I agree with that. That's the one we both 2579 02:30:19,800 --> 02:30:21,660 liked that what piece a lot by 2580 02:30:22,020 --> 02:30:26,190 Adam Curry: the butthole Academy. Thanks, butthole 2581 02:30:26,190 --> 02:30:26,880 Academy. 2582 02:30:26,970 --> 02:30:30,660 John C Dvorak: We don't know who the butthole Academy is. Then 2583 02:30:30,660 --> 02:30:36,630 I'm guessing we have some ideas. So we picked the that 2584 02:30:36,630 --> 02:30:38,610 Adam Curry: was a very cute piece. I mean, can we use that 2585 02:30:38,610 --> 02:30:42,570 for today? I mean, now is the timing is wrong. It's just 2586 02:30:42,570 --> 02:30:44,850 Valentine's day is done. And besides that was when they 2587 02:30:44,850 --> 02:30:46,830 chopped the guy's head off. But 2588 02:30:46,830 --> 02:30:49,320 John C Dvorak: can never look at the chai head shopping art. 2589 02:30:49,320 --> 02:30:50,670 Maybe we'll use that. Yeah. 2590 02:30:50,670 --> 02:30:52,830 Adam Curry: And they hit up the ends and then we had correct a 2591 02:30:52,830 --> 02:30:54,900 record with a cooler full of schlong 2592 02:30:54,900 --> 02:30:58,380 John C Dvorak: snow. No, no, we're not doing that long Dong. 2593 02:30:58,800 --> 02:31:01,680 Adam Curry: Damn candy band with a bucket with blood dripping 2594 02:31:01,680 --> 02:31:04,980 with blood that says long. Not gonna happen. Oh, no. Here. 2595 02:31:05,070 --> 02:31:09,690 Super Bowl. It was comic strip blogger. That's the one on that 2596 02:31:09,690 --> 02:31:14,130 row to the left. With the no agenda. flames on the football. 2597 02:31:14,880 --> 02:31:21,090 That was the one I liked. What the football art. If you go from 2598 02:31:21,090 --> 02:31:24,990 long dongs to the left, you'll see the no agenda. 2599 02:31:25,380 --> 02:31:27,060 John C Dvorak: Oh, that. Oh, yeah.

No. And by the way, you're always bitching about the 2602 02:31:35,940 --> 02:31:38,760 writing being too small. Can you even read curry Dvorak on that 2603 02:31:38,760 --> 02:31:40,320 thing? No, I don't think so. You can't 2604 02:31:40,350 --> 02:31:41,970 Adam Curry: but it doesn't matter. Because it was very 2605 02:31:41,970 --> 02:31:44,700 clear. You said we're doing the butt. And that was it. It was 2606 02:31:44,700 --> 02:31:50,400 just it was it was like a dance. I also liked sweet cheeks never 2607 02:31:50,400 --> 02:31:54,750 watched the news again.

And he says from synonymous with Dogpatch and Lois LeBeau. 2635 02:33:29,160 --> 02:33:31,920 Via thank you to all producers for making this such such a 2636 02:33:31,920 --> 02:33:36,600 valuable and long running source of information. After years of 2637 02:33:36,600 --> 02:33:40,920 being a $2 bill proponent, a presidential candidate is using 2638 02:33:40,920 --> 02:33:44,850 them as a source of fundraising, replacing Jefferson with his own 2639 02:33:44,850 --> 02:33:50,160 mugshot. My use is not political affiliation. Who's doing that? 2640 02:33:50,880 --> 02:33:54,630 John C Dvorak: Trump ever seen these bills? No. Oh, yeah, they 2641 02:33:54,630 --> 02:33:58,050 actually pretty interesting. They take an actual real $2 Bill 2642 02:33:58,500 --> 02:34:00,870 Trump's always had these different money gimmicks for his 2643 02:34:00,900 --> 02:34:05,010 campaigns, takes an actual $2 Bill and they overprinted with 2644 02:34:05,100 --> 02:34:09,990 Trump's mug shot and a bunch of other details and Ben, and 2645 02:34:09,990 --> 02:34:13,800 statements and comments and gold flake kinda look, it's an 2646 02:34:13,920 --> 02:34:17,220 attractive, you know, if you want to spend 20 bucks or 2647 02:34:17,220 --> 02:34:21,690 whatever they charge for a $2 bill, which is actually defacing 2648 02:34:21,690 --> 02:34:24,810 money, which I think is the it's all I could be wrong. 2649 02:34:25,860 --> 02:34:28,710 Adam Curry: The 1984 Chevron deference decision reflecting a 2650 02:34:28,710 --> 02:34:32,760 popular view that experts were apolitical and would do what is 2651 02:34:32,760 --> 02:34:35,760 wise. Since then political leaders have empowered 2652 02:34:35,760 --> 02:34:38,820 educational experts, climate experts, military experts, 2653 02:34:38,820 --> 02:34:42,360 medical experts, and others to usurp their inferred authority 2654 02:34:42,420 --> 02:34:46,440 with their own agenda. Ai deference is underway. This is 2655 02:34:46,440 --> 02:34:50,610 something we've been all over this Supreme Court case. 2656 02:34:51,030 --> 02:34:54,510 Governments claimed they fear the takeover of sentient AI 2657 02:34:54,540 --> 02:34:57,960 systems and their impact yet rely on experts that only 2658 02:34:57,960 --> 02:35:01,530 empower AI publication and decision making in a virtuous 2659 02:35:01,530 --> 02:35:06,450 loop of self feedback.
