This 6 00:00:12,270 --> 00:00:13,560 Unknown: is no agenda 7 00:00:16,590 --> 00:00:18,570 Adam Curry: and broadcasting live from the heart of the 8 00:00:19,080 --> 00:00:21,960 country here and fever. Reason number six in the morning, 9 00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:23,700 everybody. Madame Curie 10 00:00:23,910 --> 00:00:26,040 John C Dvorak: came from Northern Silicon Valley where 11 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:29,910 terreno Fuji is back, undefeated. I'm Jhansi Dvorak. 12 00:00:33,660 --> 00:00:38,280 Adam Curry: Nailed it. Only only you could give us some sumo 13 00:00:38,730 --> 00:00:44,100 headlines at the start of a show on a day like this. Only you 14 00:00:45,180 --> 00:00:49,170 John C Dvorak: could have said JD Vance. Oh and birded one Oh, 15 00:00:49,170 --> 00:00:49,680 no, no 16 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:51,330 Adam Curry: wait, breaking breaking. 17 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,240 Unknown: I feel standby we're gonna get back to you soon. But 18 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,990 there's some breaking news emerging right now. CNS Kayla? 19 00:00:58,170 --> 00:01:02,010 Toshi. She's on the scene for us. Kayla, the president United 20 00:01:02,010 --> 00:01:05,490 States was about to speak but something has gone on. He's just 21 00:01:05,490 --> 00:01:08,370 got new information. Tell us about that. Well, 22 00:01:08,370 --> 00:01:11,610 President Biden has just tested positive for COVID that 23 00:01:11,610 --> 00:01:14,370 according to the president of Unito, as the leader viewer, oh, 24 00:01:14,370 --> 00:01:14,910 no, 25 00:01:14,910 --> 00:01:18,420 Adam Curry: he tested positive for COVID. And it gets worse now 26 00:01:18,420 --> 00:01:18,510 that, 27 00:01:18,630 --> 00:01:21,150 Unknown: you know, the President has received probably at least 28 00:01:21,180 --> 00:01:26,760 five doses of vaccine as a lot of us and has also had the right 29 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:30,120 for it. And that has really, you know, all those elements are 30 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,870 served to increase his immunity. Plus, he you know, we also have 31 00:01:33,870 --> 00:01:37,860 packs loaded now. And we've already heard that he's just the 32 00:01:37,860 --> 00:01:39,330 brand. Dr. 33 00:01:39,330 --> 00:01:42,060 Reiner, we're seeing live pictures of the president 34 00:01:42,060 --> 00:01:45,180 boarding Air Force One right now. And what jumped out at me 35 00:01:45,180 --> 00:01:48,480 and I'm sure to others as well. I didn't see him wearing a mask, 36 00:01:48,810 --> 00:01:51,210 as it was. Those other people have 37 00:01:51,210 --> 00:01:57,150 Adam Curry: no mask. Oh, no. Breaking breaking. But remember 38 00:01:57,150 --> 00:01:59,490 everybody it's safe and effective. President 39 00:01:59,490 --> 00:02:02,850 Unknown: Joe Biden slowly making his way off Air Force One in 40 00:02:02,850 --> 00:02:06,630 Delaware Wednesday night. This is one of the first images of 41 00:02:06,630 --> 00:02:10,200 the president we've seen since confirmation came in to be 42 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,510 tested positive for COVID 19. 43 00:02:12,780 --> 00:02:17,550 So I think Biden being second is a big deal, but I don't think 44 00:02:17,580 --> 00:02:22,980 he's going to suffer any real consequence. Because it is a 45 00:02:22,980 --> 00:02:26,250 manageable disease. Even in the older population. 46 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:30,540 That's Stanford's Dr. Yvonne Maldonado. Right rest is key for 47 00:02:30,540 --> 00:02:35,700 someone. For COVID, the President's press secretary says 48 00:02:35,940 --> 00:02:39,720 Biden will self isolate in the days to come. He did eventually 49 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,950 put a mask on after getting into his waiting SUV. Biden's medical 50 00:02:43,950 --> 00:02:47,670 team says he has been vaccinated and has all of his current 51 00:02:47,670 --> 00:02:53,190 annual booster dose. Maldonado says that is important. That 52 00:02:53,190 --> 00:02:56,220 Adam Curry: is important. He's had all his booster shots. He's 53 00:02:56,220 --> 00:02:59,700 wearing a mask, you still got COVID It's unbelievable how safe 54 00:02:59,700 --> 00:03:01,380 and effective it really is. 55 00:03:02,610 --> 00:03:05,430 John C Dvorak: Glad I didn't make the clip of it. But Gutfeld 56 00:03:05,430 --> 00:03:08,460 had kind of, I don't know, probably a sketchy joke where he 57 00:03:08,460 --> 00:03:11,820 said, when he announced it on his show, he says, Well, there's 58 00:03:11,820 --> 00:03:13,830 another shot that didn't work. 59 00:03:15,810 --> 00:03:18,360 Adam Curry: And I and I think this came right after he 60 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:23,340 announced that he would only only only only really give up if 61 00:03:23,340 --> 00:03:25,290 he had some kind of medical emergency. 62 00:03:26,340 --> 00:03:31,800 John C Dvorak: Yes. And there's one report that I have from NPR. 63 00:03:32,100 --> 00:03:36,510 The Biden has COVID clip. And there's a little factoid at the 64 00:03:36,510 --> 00:03:39,270 end of this, which they've left out of all these other reports 65 00:03:39,300 --> 00:03:39,750 President 66 00:03:39,750 --> 00:03:42,600 Unknown: Biden campaigning in Nevada left early today. That's 67 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,600 after confirmation from the President's doctor. The 81 year 68 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,170 old president has tested positive for COVID. By most of 69 00:03:49,170 --> 00:03:51,960 delivered remarks to Latino organization conference, 70 00:03:52,170 --> 00:03:54,930 President instead left early to self isolated his home in 71 00:03:54,930 --> 00:03:58,740 Rehoboth Delaware finds doctor says the president symptoms are 72 00:03:58,740 --> 00:03:59,340 mild, 73 00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:01,920 mild, mild. 74 00:04:03,030 --> 00:04:05,520 Adam Curry: Yes, no problem. But I think this is the clip where 75 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,190 they they're trying to get rid of him. And then I think this is 76 00:04:08,190 --> 00:04:11,880 it. I'm not sure if he says they only five some medical problems, 77 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,820 Unknown: the pressure from Democratic leaders, for Biden to 78 00:04:14,820 --> 00:04:17,640 get out of the race is intensifying. In fact, one 79 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,600 person who has been out there publicly defending Biden told me 80 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,900 just a short while ago, Biden is going to see the whole house of 81 00:04:24,900 --> 00:04:29,160 cards come down soon. As for that meeting with Delaware, I am 82 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:33,330 told that this was a one on one meeting just the Senate leader 83 00:04:33,330 --> 00:04:36,810 and the President and the Chuck Schumer forcefully made the case 84 00:04:36,810 --> 00:04:40,770 for the better for Biden better for the Democratic Party and 85 00:04:40,770 --> 00:04:43,800 better for the country if he were to bow out of the race. And 86 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,490 David, when I went to to Schumer's office to ask them 87 00:04:47,490 --> 00:04:49,650 about to tell them I was to report this and tell you this 88 00:04:49,650 --> 00:04:53,550 tonight, absolutely no denial from Senator Schumer's office. 89 00:04:53,550 --> 00:04:57,240 They only said this leader Schumer conveyed the views of 90 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,930 his caucus. In other words, the views of democratic senators, I 91 00:05:00,930 --> 00:05:04,020 am also told that Hakeem Jeffries, the Democratic Leader 92 00:05:04,020 --> 00:05:08,460 of the House, has expressed similar views directly to the 93 00:05:08,460 --> 00:05:09,480 president at Joe. 94 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,000 Adam Curry: And I mean, showing my caucus. Let me show you this. 95 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,840 Maybe, maybe, maybe maybe we can spin this ladies and gentlemen, 96 00:05:16,140 --> 00:05:19,860 maybe we can spin this in a positive direction Joy read help 97 00:05:19,860 --> 00:05:20,040 us. 98 00:05:20,070 --> 00:05:22,680 Unknown: These two men are both elderly. Donald Trump is an 99 00:05:22,710 --> 00:05:27,030 elderly man who, for whatever reason was given nine seconds to 100 00:05:27,030 --> 00:05:31,560 take a iconic photo op during an active shooter situation. weird 101 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,910 situation. We'll figure that out one day. But his survival of 102 00:05:35,910 --> 00:05:39,540 that and bouncing right back and going right to his convention is 103 00:05:39,540 --> 00:05:42,270 being conveyed in the media world as a sign of strength. 104 00:05:42,750 --> 00:05:47,280 This current President of the United States is 81 years old, 105 00:05:47,610 --> 00:05:52,170 and has COVID. Should he be fine in a couple of days? Doesn't 106 00:05:52,170 --> 00:05:55,140 that convey exactly the same thing? That he's strong enough 107 00:05:55,170 --> 00:05:59,250 older than Trump to have gotten something that used to really be 108 00:05:59,490 --> 00:06:03,690 valuable to people his age? So if he does fine out of it and 109 00:06:03,690 --> 00:06:06,810 comes back and is able to do rallies? Isn't that exactly the 110 00:06:06,810 --> 00:06:10,200 same? It's not exactly the same. It's not same incident but it's 111 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,920 all it's an elderly man coming through out of an age should 112 00:06:14,070 --> 00:06:14,520 take 113 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:19,740 Adam Curry: her off the air. What an nincompoop. It's exactly 114 00:06:19,740 --> 00:06:22,530 the same yummy shots exactly 115 00:06:22,530 --> 00:06:24,750 John C Dvorak: the same, exactly the same word 116 00:06:24,750 --> 00:06:28,080 Adam Curry: on the street. I have from from reliable sources. 117 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,850 Biden will step down tonight. Tonight Tonight, this is what 118 00:06:32,850 --> 00:06:36,600 I'm hearing. And it kind of goes along with this news and I 119 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:40,080 believe this is the the Biden won't quit until he cyclic 120 00:06:40,110 --> 00:06:42,900 Unknown: the Democratic National Committee announces its shelving 121 00:06:42,900 --> 00:06:45,750 and effort to make Biden's nomination official by the end 122 00:06:45,750 --> 00:06:49,230 of July through a virtual roll call vote. The DNC rules 123 00:06:49,230 --> 00:06:52,470 committee now announcing no virtual voting will begin before 124 00:06:52,470 --> 00:06:56,130 August one. The move perhaps intended to buy more time to 125 00:06:56,130 --> 00:06:59,760 convince Biden to drop out of the race sources telling ABC 126 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:03,000 News it came at the urging of the two most powerful Democrats 127 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,360 in Congress, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and house 128 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:10,410 minority leader Hakeem Jeffries so far Biden resisting all 129 00:07:10,410 --> 00:07:13,590 entreaties to drop out of the race, but he has had words of 130 00:07:13,590 --> 00:07:16,980 praise for his vice president Kamala Harris by the way 131 00:07:20,340 --> 00:07:23,220 she's our great Vice President she can be president united 132 00:07:23,220 --> 00:07:23,790 states 133 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,140 in an interview with b e. T. Biden did say a doctor's 134 00:07:28,140 --> 00:07:30,840 recommendation could sway him as 135 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,930 a medical condition and emerged if somebody if the doctors came 136 00:07:33,930 --> 00:07:37,800 to me said you got this problem that problem? Yeah, 137 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:38,670 Adam Curry: there's you're out. 138 00:07:40,260 --> 00:07:41,190 Unknown: I don't know. I 139 00:07:41,190 --> 00:07:43,290 John C Dvorak: think I don't think he wants it out. 140 00:07:43,770 --> 00:07:47,280 Adam Curry: No, but did you see him going into and getting out 141 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:48,480 of the plane? That is not 142 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:50,520 John C Dvorak: good. barely get up the stairs and it was the 143 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:56,400 short bed little boys. wasn't a big deal. roll that out for him 144 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:57,630 any more than the stairway? 145 00:07:57,660 --> 00:08:00,630 Adam Curry: No. Now I'm just telling you I heard from 146 00:08:00,630 --> 00:08:02,670 reasonably good inside sources. 147 00:08:04,590 --> 00:08:05,700 John C Dvorak: microdot guys, 148 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:11,670 Adam Curry: no, close, though. Here in the hill country? Yes. 149 00:08:11,700 --> 00:08:16,020 The word is you stepping down? It comes. This comes from Trump 150 00:08:16,020 --> 00:08:18,660 associates. So who knows? Well, 151 00:08:18,660 --> 00:08:21,690 John C Dvorak: tonight would be timed because Trump gives his 152 00:08:21,690 --> 00:08:23,190 speech tonight. Yeah. 153 00:08:23,190 --> 00:08:25,560 Adam Curry: So they could ruin the coverage. 154 00:08:27,660 --> 00:08:30,030 John C Dvorak: That's why it would make logical sense to do 155 00:08:30,030 --> 00:08:32,640 it if you're going to do it at all. But I don't believe that. I 156 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,130 don't think it's going to happen. And they keep bringing 157 00:08:35,130 --> 00:08:37,890 up this August 1 thing, one of the early tweets that was taken 158 00:08:37,890 --> 00:08:41,520 down to after the Trump shooting was it. Don't worry at Trump's 159 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,490 going to be dead by August 1. I think that was one of my one of 160 00:08:44,490 --> 00:08:46,710 the newsletters I sent out. We still had 161 00:08:46,710 --> 00:08:49,170 Adam Curry: that tweet on it. So we have to wait until August 1. 162 00:08:49,170 --> 00:08:50,550 Is that is that the idea? Well, 163 00:08:50,550 --> 00:08:52,950 John C Dvorak: I think that if they're planning to try to kill 164 00:08:52,950 --> 00:09:01,170 him again. Man. I'd say that August 1 is one of the days that 165 00:09:01,170 --> 00:09:07,260 has been set up. So why would you throw in the towel today 166 00:09:07,290 --> 00:09:08,730 doesn't make sense. Well, 167 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,000 Adam Curry: I mean, clearly he didn't have to didn't have to 168 00:09:12,030 --> 00:09:15,120 say Oh, I got COVID I'm going home and that was not necessary. 169 00:09:15,630 --> 00:09:18,840 His symptoms are mild isn't you know it wasn't wearing a mask. 170 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:23,460 It's a hoax. It's a reason to maybe just doesn't like Latinos. 171 00:09:24,270 --> 00:09:24,780 He doesn't 172 00:09:24,780 --> 00:09:27,360 John C Dvorak: like Latinos because they're turning on him a 173 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:32,760 pooped. He himself talked about the schedule he's been on. 174 00:09:33,900 --> 00:09:36,420 Adam Curry: I want to run through a couple of bad takes 175 00:09:36,420 --> 00:09:43,530 bad assassination takes that, that cropped up in the media and 176 00:09:43,530 --> 00:09:47,910 hope and some of it was was thwarted or combated by by the 177 00:09:47,910 --> 00:09:51,990 blue team. We started with by the blue team that the depth of 178 00:09:51,990 --> 00:10:00,150 the CNN basically CNN. Here's the X. Axelrod does this or on 179 00:10:00,150 --> 00:10:06,870 CNN, this is Obama's guy. You know, the reality is that there 180 00:10:06,870 --> 00:10:10,440 are things you can't erase. I mean, we all remember January 6, 181 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:14,670 we remember the President's rhetoric then. Just a few weeks 182 00:10:14,670 --> 00:10:21,480 ago, he retweeted a tweet, which was Cheney was accused of 183 00:10:21,510 --> 00:10:25,020 treason, and it said read truth if you want televise military 184 00:10:25,020 --> 00:10:29,610 tribunals, and he did. So I think the speaker should talk to 185 00:10:29,940 --> 00:10:34,740 the President as well, because he has, he has done his share to 186 00:10:34,740 --> 00:10:38,010 put us where we are now he brought it upon himself. But 187 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,980 there's David urban to say, Oh, David. Yeah, I 188 00:10:40,980 --> 00:10:42,780 Unknown: was just gonna say, look, there's actually you and I 189 00:10:42,780 --> 00:10:45,390 will disagree on this. There's no excuse. That's like blaming 190 00:10:45,390 --> 00:10:47,580 the victim a little bit here, right? Like, so somebody gets 191 00:10:47,580 --> 00:10:49,620 assaulted, you blame the victim, oh, he shouldn't have been 192 00:10:49,620 --> 00:10:53,520 wearing that that outfit or that man deserved to be being hit by 193 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,910 a car or whatever. And he's not saying that. Indirectly is but 194 00:10:56,910 --> 00:10:59,400 you know, you got to condemn them. Actually gonna condemn it 195 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,130 outright, right. There's no justification of it. I've 196 00:11:02,130 --> 00:11:02,670 condemned 197 00:11:02,670 --> 00:11:07,050 it from the very beginning for that, for that, but you 198 00:11:07,980 --> 00:11:11,760 also can't say January 6, is the reason the President almost got 199 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:12,390 killed yesterday. Did 200 00:11:12,390 --> 00:11:15,540 I say that? You kind of said the speaker said we have to lower 201 00:11:15,540 --> 00:11:18,600 our voice. And I'm suggesting that he should speak to his own 202 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:19,140 cat. And I 203 00:11:19,140 --> 00:11:21,930 agree, and we should speak to lots of Democrats, lots of 204 00:11:21,930 --> 00:11:24,480 Republicans, the president united states at some rhetoric 205 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:25,020 heated rhetoric. 206 00:11:25,110 --> 00:11:27,240 Adam Curry: Well, let's start let's do this. Let's start by 207 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,640 not putting words in my mouth. Okay. Well, I'm not 208 00:11:31,860 --> 00:11:34,800 Unknown: saying sec. I just want to say January 6, did not cause 209 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:35,160 what happened. I 210 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,020 Adam Curry: don't think nobody said I don't think it was saying 211 00:11:37,020 --> 00:11:42,690 that. He did exactly what he's wire. A lot of people getting 212 00:11:42,690 --> 00:11:47,550 fired from the jobs for saying, Oh, he missed it. No bad shots. 213 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:51,090 But my favorite was of course what happened in Australia. A 214 00:11:51,090 --> 00:11:54,510 Unknown: joke about a missed shot from an attempted assassins 215 00:11:54,510 --> 00:11:59,250 rifle has brought musical duo Tenacious D in the crosshairs, I 216 00:11:59,250 --> 00:12:03,120 mean calls for their deportation from Australia. The controversy 217 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:06,450 brought down the curtain on the rest of the tour across 218 00:12:06,450 --> 00:12:09,630 Australia and New Zealand. And it could mean no more wrong 219 00:12:09,630 --> 00:12:12,750 cause for the comedic raucous from 220 00:12:12,750 --> 00:12:17,700 tenacious days, Carl gasps This is not the greatest quote in the 221 00:12:17,700 --> 00:12:18,060 world. 222 00:12:23,100 --> 00:12:24,540 You will miss Trump next. 223 00:12:27,420 --> 00:12:30,810 thing no tributes to his band bait. The other half of the 224 00:12:30,810 --> 00:12:35,640 comedic rock duo Jeff flag posted. I was blindsided by what 225 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,810 was said at the show on Sunday, and I would never condone hate 226 00:12:39,810 --> 00:12:43,560 speech or encourage political violence with that the rest of 227 00:12:43,560 --> 00:12:47,550 the Dewar's spicy meatball to was canceled and all creative 228 00:12:47,550 --> 00:12:48,930 plans put on us 229 00:12:52,020 --> 00:12:58,110 Adam Curry: Oh, that was one of my top three the top the top or 230 00:12:58,110 --> 00:13:05,250 the topper? What had to be Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway on 231 00:13:05,250 --> 00:13:07,560 the on the pivot podcast? 232 00:13:08,370 --> 00:13:10,800 John C Dvorak: me on this one. I'm sure this is gonna be a news 233 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:11,550 to me Get a 234 00:13:11,550 --> 00:13:12,480 Adam Curry: load of this one. 235 00:13:12,510 --> 00:13:15,090 Unknown: Social media is flooded with misinformation, conspiracy 236 00:13:15,090 --> 00:13:18,570 theories, especially x of course. And Elon Musk keeps 237 00:13:18,570 --> 00:13:22,110 touting it. He's real media. Now. He's 80s piece of him 238 00:13:22,110 --> 00:13:25,380 anyway, Elon Musk and some other tech business leaders, using 239 00:13:25,380 --> 00:13:27,570 your megaphone to criticize the Secret Service diversity 240 00:13:27,570 --> 00:13:30,030 initiatives and making unsubstantiated claims about the 241 00:13:30,030 --> 00:13:32,190 shooting just like they did with that guy who got killed in San 242 00:13:32,190 --> 00:13:36,750 Francisco Wrong. Wrong. He's not an Tifa. He also formally 243 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:38,850 endorsed Trump after the shooting as to Bill Ackman 244 00:13:38,850 --> 00:13:41,610 because they couldn't have the spotlight away from them. People 245 00:13:41,610 --> 00:13:44,160 on both sides of the political spectrum are sharing theories. 246 00:13:44,190 --> 00:13:47,580 The false flag claiming the picture was staged. Yeah, 247 00:13:47,580 --> 00:13:49,350 certainly was fast on his feet. 248 00:13:49,380 --> 00:13:51,900 So there's ridiculous theories on both sides. The worst on the 249 00:13:51,900 --> 00:13:54,570 right, but I don't know if you heard that. Right before 250 00:13:54,570 --> 00:13:57,420 Mallanna gave her public statement. She was heard yelling 251 00:13:57,420 --> 00:14:01,350 into a phone You had one job too soon. 252 00:14:02,580 --> 00:14:05,100 I like a joke. I like my favorite joke was from someone 253 00:14:05,100 --> 00:14:08,340 where they said it's let's let's hope it's not a time traveler 254 00:14:08,340 --> 00:14:11,340 from the future. Who can't shoot it was something like that 255 00:14:11,340 --> 00:14:12,240 anyway. Oh, no. 256 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,540 The truth is, I mean, the probably the most likely 257 00:14:15,540 --> 00:14:19,200 conspiracy theory is the Democratic Party order to hit 258 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,380 but they use TV for it. They use Timo and Oh, 259 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:25,500 all right, well, stop with the jokes. 260 00:14:30,300 --> 00:14:34,770 Adam Curry: It's just like, they hate so much that they still 261 00:14:34,770 --> 00:14:38,010 have to make jokes. And they and they didn't they didn't deliver 262 00:14:38,010 --> 00:14:42,570 it. No, that didn't deliver a single one of them. What I what 263 00:14:42,570 --> 00:14:46,620 I really played this clip for is Kara Swisher says no, there's 264 00:14:46,620 --> 00:14:49,710 lots of conspiracy theories. Like was an inside job. I gotta 265 00:14:49,710 --> 00:14:52,950 say he did get up pretty quick. That picture was pretty iconic. 266 00:14:53,580 --> 00:14:57,540 And I just need to stop and say something about this. Because 267 00:14:57,540 --> 00:15:01,740 there is a large contingent quite large, who all believe 268 00:15:01,740 --> 00:15:07,470 this was staged. It was meant to to get that iconic photo of 269 00:15:07,470 --> 00:15:10,560 Trump and the flag and his fist pumping in the air. It was too 270 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:14,730 perfect. Everything was too well orchestrated. Please don't pay 271 00:15:14,730 --> 00:15:18,180 attention to the dead guy as irrelevant. But I would just 272 00:15:18,180 --> 00:15:21,420 like to remind people that if the current of our consulting 273 00:15:21,420 --> 00:15:26,940 group had advise on such a strategy, we would do it in 274 00:15:26,940 --> 00:15:34,140 October. Not in July. That just discredits that whole theory. 275 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:39,510 It's, it's idiotic, wouldn't you say? 276 00:15:40,860 --> 00:15:44,310 John C Dvorak: Yeah, I'd have to agree with that. I have a couple 277 00:15:44,310 --> 00:15:50,040 of clips that kind of refer to this. One is first I got a bunch 278 00:15:50,070 --> 00:15:56,340 decision about the nature of the shooting. Vaughn Gino came up in 279 00:15:56,340 --> 00:16:00,270 here he who is an ex, Secret Service guy, so and so he has a 280 00:16:00,270 --> 00:16:06,480 lot of contacts. And he was bitching about it. I guess 281 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:10,620 you're going to ingest another investigation by this time by 282 00:16:10,620 --> 00:16:14,460 the House speaker. So they have about six or seven of these 283 00:16:14,460 --> 00:16:16,770 things going on at the same time. They're definitely going 284 00:16:16,770 --> 00:16:18,540 to get rid of this woman. I don't know how they're going to 285 00:16:18,540 --> 00:16:21,480 manage it. But you're gonna have to give her a golden parachute 286 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:22,110 or something. 287 00:16:23,610 --> 00:16:26,820 Adam Curry: Oh, you mean, the Secret Service? Lady Cheadle? 288 00:16:27,150 --> 00:16:29,700 Yeah, I mean, you had some stuff in the newsletter about her, 289 00:16:29,700 --> 00:16:33,420 which I did not know that Jill Biden actually was 290 00:16:33,900 --> 00:16:35,640 John C Dvorak: parsing real Biden harder. Yeah, 291 00:16:35,670 --> 00:16:39,750 Adam Curry: really? How do we know this? Well, there's 292 00:16:39,750 --> 00:16:41,580 John C Dvorak: an article in The New York Post. There's an 293 00:16:41,580 --> 00:16:44,400 article in the Daily Mail. There's an article in Politico, 294 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,640 there's an article in The Hill, I think there's plenty of 295 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:53,550 articles that indicate that Joe Biden did this. So that's how we 296 00:16:53,550 --> 00:16:56,760 know it. All right. But since you're on the topic of being a 297 00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:01,590 people being abhorrent, which I thought was funny to hearing 298 00:17:01,590 --> 00:17:06,600 that coming from x, yeah. Right on Monday with you know, they 299 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:12,300 canceled the mica and the morning, Joe Show. Morning, Joe 300 00:17:12,300 --> 00:17:15,420 guy kicked off the air because they were and then the next day, 301 00:17:15,420 --> 00:17:17,100 of course, more I don't have the clip, by the way. 302 00:17:17,399 --> 00:17:20,549 Adam Curry: I think we're responsible, because you called 303 00:17:20,549 --> 00:17:25,469 out the CEO of Comcast. You said is that guy's fault? And I think 304 00:17:25,469 --> 00:17:26,609 he heard it anyway. Oh, 305 00:17:27,179 --> 00:17:29,219 John C Dvorak: yeah. I doubt if he heard it, but he should have 306 00:17:29,219 --> 00:17:33,149 been saying, oh, meanwhile, they let Nicole Wallace do her show. 307 00:17:33,179 --> 00:17:38,789 Yeah. And you and she's worse than those two. And so I have 308 00:17:38,789 --> 00:17:43,169 some Nicole Wallace's material that I got three clips here. 309 00:17:43,199 --> 00:17:46,409 They're fairly short. So for the first one, but here's what 310 00:17:46,409 --> 00:17:49,079 happens. This is the day at you know, this is the first Monday 311 00:17:49,079 --> 00:17:53,129 when they she comes back on the air. She wasn't bumped. And here 312 00:17:53,129 --> 00:17:54,209 we go. So 313 00:17:54,210 --> 00:17:58,560 Unknown: Claire and David is 439 in the east and we've memory 314 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:02,070 hold Mike Pence the whole reason Donald Trump needs a new VP is 315 00:18:02,070 --> 00:18:05,100 because he called Mike Pence the P word because he wouldn't be 316 00:18:05,100 --> 00:18:09,030 the final nail in his coffin and then left him to die, of course 317 00:18:09,030 --> 00:18:10,710 wanted to quote hang Mike Pence. And 318 00:18:10,710 --> 00:18:13,950 by the way, JD Vance has said he would not have certified those 319 00:18:13,950 --> 00:18:15,210 electors. Can I show 320 00:18:15,210 --> 00:18:21,090 you what what Jamie Masse was actually confronted by foxes, 321 00:18:21,090 --> 00:18:24,810 Brett bear, about all the things JD Vance said about Donald 322 00:18:24,810 --> 00:18:25,710 Trump. Let me tell you that. 323 00:18:25,740 --> 00:18:28,530 Well, you know, Senator, this is an evolution and I know you've 324 00:18:28,530 --> 00:18:31,680 been asked about this before about past comments that you've 325 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:35,520 made about Donald Trump. You've said I've never I'm a Never 326 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:39,660 Trump guy. Never liked him. Terrible candidate. Idiot if you 327 00:18:39,660 --> 00:18:43,380 voted for him might be America's Hitler. Might be a cynical 328 00:18:43,470 --> 00:18:47,850 aihole cultural heroine noxious, reprehensible about 329 00:18:47,850 --> 00:18:48,390 Donald Trump. I 330 00:18:48,390 --> 00:18:50,190 didn't think he was gonna be good president Brett. He 331 00:18:50,190 --> 00:18:51,600 was a great presidents. 332 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:58,350 I don't know if the flip flop does make you throw up in your 333 00:18:58,350 --> 00:19:02,940 mouth the you know, sick a fan he's turned into might. Yeah, I 334 00:19:02,940 --> 00:19:05,220 think flip flopping is baked in in the Trump era for 335 00:19:05,220 --> 00:19:08,430 Republicans. Sadly, as I mentioned, that's why they do 336 00:19:08,460 --> 00:19:11,460 the unqualified tag is important. But I think at the at 337 00:19:11,460 --> 00:19:15,360 the base of what you just raised about the reason JD Vance is now 338 00:19:15,360 --> 00:19:19,950 needed is because Donald Trump's former Vice President Mike Pence 339 00:19:19,950 --> 00:19:23,640 has been disenfranchised by Republicans but most of Donald 340 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,860 Trump's cabinet won't support the former president either 341 00:19:25,890 --> 00:19:30,480 either. For a fundamental reason, because Donald Trump did 342 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:34,500 try to topple democracy with violence and Mike Pence refused 343 00:19:34,500 --> 00:19:38,400 to do it. And this is important to the context of what we saw in 344 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,220 Butler. We don't know the shooters motivations. Let's just 345 00:19:41,250 --> 00:19:44,190 let's say it was political violence politically motivated. 346 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:48,750 That shooter almost interrupted democracy to violence through a 347 00:19:48,750 --> 00:19:53,070 bullet. On January 6, Donald Trump led an insurrection to 348 00:19:53,070 --> 00:19:54,450 interrupt democracy. 349 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,610 Adam Curry: Yeah, this is this is the big it's a false 350 00:19:56,610 --> 00:19:59,940 equivalency. What are you doing? 351 00:20:01,260 --> 00:20:05,880 John C Dvorak: The I like this is that guy jolly a Republican 352 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,910 Congressman Of course. Nicole Wallace is an ex Republican. She 353 00:20:08,910 --> 00:20:13,950 was, I think, a spokes holder for Bush. Yeah. And she now says 354 00:20:13,950 --> 00:20:16,890 that she was like a self loathing Republican she was 355 00:20:16,890 --> 00:20:17,760 feeling bad about. 356 00:20:18,510 --> 00:20:21,450 Adam Curry: I always I always hated being Republican, but I'm 357 00:20:21,450 --> 00:20:25,140 not a flip flopper. And speaking about puking in your mouth, 358 00:20:25,500 --> 00:20:28,230 John C Dvorak: Nicole was a good point. I'm not a flip flopper. 359 00:20:28,230 --> 00:20:29,310 That's nasty. 360 00:20:29,340 --> 00:20:31,320 Adam Curry: That's nasty. But 361 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:36,150 John C Dvorak: she's, she's really a pathetic example of 362 00:20:36,180 --> 00:20:38,010 Well, here's a listen to this clip to 363 00:20:38,130 --> 00:20:40,110 Unknown: Unfortunately, nobody was killed, but the crowd was 364 00:20:40,110 --> 00:20:43,290 chanting hang Mike Pence and Donald Trump watched as that 365 00:20:43,290 --> 00:20:44,820 occurred. It is why 366 00:20:45,300 --> 00:20:48,930 a tweet calling him not the P word. But we know from Ivanka 367 00:20:48,930 --> 00:20:51,810 Trump's assistant that that's what he was saying in private. 368 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,360 And as I've said that what? 369 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,860 John C Dvorak: He sent out a tweet, what is not calling him 370 00:20:58,860 --> 00:21:03,780 to pee word. But what was the tweet? He is always sending out 371 00:21:03,780 --> 00:21:06,960 tweets. So she said, so she implies the by the way she 372 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:10,890 presents this, that he sent out a tweet, but he didn't like Mike 373 00:21:10,890 --> 00:21:14,460 Pence a prick. or pushy or pushy. 374 00:21:14,610 --> 00:21:17,070 Adam Curry: We don't know. We don't know because but it's the 375 00:21:17,070 --> 00:21:21,090 P word. It's a P Well, you can't say the P word. Unless you're 376 00:21:21,090 --> 00:21:22,170 wearing a pink hat. 377 00:21:24,270 --> 00:21:25,320 John C Dvorak: Exactly. Yeah. 378 00:21:25,380 --> 00:21:27,690 Adam Curry: So but just think of this. He 379 00:21:27,690 --> 00:21:32,910 John C Dvorak: sent out a tweet. Not calling him with the tweets 380 00:21:32,910 --> 00:21:35,310 that what? What is she talking about? They're very 381 00:21:35,310 --> 00:21:38,160 Adam Curry: confused at this moment. They're confused. They 382 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,340 don't know what to do. They're there. No one's no one's giving 383 00:21:41,340 --> 00:21:44,640 up. There's no call from Jill. She's trying to you know, keep 384 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,820 Joe afloat that their deal isn't done yet. You know, she's 385 00:21:47,820 --> 00:21:52,860 managing Schumer. The house, I get this guy. I gotta make it 386 00:21:52,860 --> 00:21:58,140 happen. Hunters. You know, he's in the corner. She's just, it's 387 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:03,360 it's a problem. They got problems as problems in paradise 388 00:22:03,360 --> 00:22:07,350 here. So nobody knows what to do. Well, 389 00:22:07,350 --> 00:22:09,000 John C Dvorak: here we go to the last short clip 390 00:22:09,450 --> 00:22:12,600 Unknown: of Trump where the guy and the first girlfriend that 391 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:16,320 was dating him was Mike Pence. And you say well, you know, I 392 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:20,100 It's not you. It's him. I mean, he left you to actually die. 393 00:22:20,130 --> 00:22:23,520 They were chanting hang Mike Pence. And he said, Yeah, go for 394 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:24,270 it. Basically. 395 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,560 Adam Curry: It's really unbelievable. We sit right Wait, 396 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:28,860 she 397 00:22:28,860 --> 00:22:31,290 John C Dvorak: says she claims that Trump said there are 398 00:22:31,290 --> 00:22:34,860 chanting hanging Mike Pence. I don't remember this. I watched 399 00:22:34,860 --> 00:22:36,810 the whole thing too. If he was watching what I was watching, 400 00:22:36,810 --> 00:22:40,080 which was on C span, there wasn't much going on. And so 401 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:44,070 they're chanting according to her hang Mike Pence, which could 402 00:22:44,070 --> 00:22:49,650 have been just the FBI chanting it. And then Trump said Go for 403 00:22:49,650 --> 00:22:52,710 it. When was this? Do you remember this? No. And what 404 00:22:52,710 --> 00:22:55,650 Adam Curry: they had He also claimed they built a gallows if 405 00:22:55,650 --> 00:22:59,340 there was a small there was no gallows. There was a guillotine 406 00:22:59,370 --> 00:23:03,540 like a model guillotine that was outside. You know, someone 407 00:23:03,540 --> 00:23:09,090 brought it in our trailer. Yeah, this is a great surprise, 408 00:23:09,090 --> 00:23:15,510 surprise. The media sucks. Just surprise. The media is doing no 409 00:23:15,510 --> 00:23:16,800 good. No 410 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:21,420 John C Dvorak: deny that but they're there. i This is where I 411 00:23:21,420 --> 00:23:24,750 want to play this clip. This is the one I just sent in. Oh, this 412 00:23:24,750 --> 00:23:30,690 is Brian O'Shea. And Brian O'Shea is married to Naomi Wolf, 413 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,630 Adam Curry: man. Well, yes. And he's a former 414 00:23:34,890 --> 00:23:38,850 John C Dvorak: Intel guy. Yeah, yeah. He's a private security 415 00:23:38,850 --> 00:23:44,310 company entail ex Intel ex army. Green Berets had a hell of a 416 00:23:44,310 --> 00:23:48,720 background. He and She married him because she he was he was a 417 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:52,170 bodyguard. Yeah. Bodyguard says when the marrying the bodyguard, 418 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:58,980 yes. Yeah. So this guy regular Whitney Houston. So she wrote a 419 00:23:59,010 --> 00:24:03,840 a substack claiming that Jill Biden is behind the whole 420 00:24:05,430 --> 00:24:08,550 Adam Curry: No, it was really it was really cagey. She's like I 421 00:24:08,550 --> 00:24:13,350 don't want I I'm writing to get sued. But it looks like Jill is 422 00:24:13,350 --> 00:24:15,510 in charge here was an interesting piece. 423 00:24:16,620 --> 00:24:21,300 John C Dvorak: And that piece by I would link to that in the 424 00:24:21,300 --> 00:24:24,720 newsletter but I read it after the fact. And it because it was 425 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,590 interesting. I I tweeted it so people should follow me the real 426 00:24:28,590 --> 00:24:36,060 Dvorak because I'm not on Macedon anymore. No. So he has a 427 00:24:36,060 --> 00:24:41,160 couple of new he has one insight that I've never heard it and 428 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,610 she's claimed it she just goes on for a while. And she says 429 00:24:44,610 --> 00:24:47,400 it's like breaking news and they talk about that but they talked 430 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,160 about some other stuff. But this is the one of the key little 431 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:54,420 elements in it. interview she did with him on her, one of her 432 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:58,980 podcasts and I will say this. She doesn't. I don't know why 433 00:24:58,980 --> 00:25:04,440 this is so She's always poor. She is so poorly miked on her 434 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:08,700 own podcast. Yeah, and everybody else all the guests are Well, 435 00:25:08,700 --> 00:25:09,540 Mike. Yes, she 436 00:25:09,540 --> 00:25:13,080 Adam Curry: does on the laptop mic. I have no idea why someone 437 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,240 should shake her about to Hey, 438 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:17,940 John C Dvorak: instance. I've never heard a podcast where the 439 00:25:17,940 --> 00:25:19,830 host, the host 440 00:25:19,830 --> 00:25:22,500 Adam Curry: of the worst. I'm gonna get worse gear. She needs 441 00:25:22,500 --> 00:25:25,500 some gear. We got to help help. No. Oh, me with a mic. 442 00:25:25,530 --> 00:25:27,690 John C Dvorak: She needs a mic. Okay. Okay, 443 00:25:27,690 --> 00:25:31,350 Adam Curry: I'll send her a mic. Alright. So this is Brian 444 00:25:31,350 --> 00:25:32,640 O'Shea. Yeah, 445 00:25:32,670 --> 00:25:36,810 Unknown: Brian, my first reaction was I, and I'm not 446 00:25:36,810 --> 00:25:41,910 going to judge the Secret Service's conduct. I will say 447 00:25:41,940 --> 00:25:45,690 that I've heard and I don't know, I have a lot of Secret 448 00:25:45,690 --> 00:25:48,990 Service friends, or they're telling me some of those people 449 00:25:48,990 --> 00:25:53,850 in that detail detail. We're kind of short. And why is that 450 00:25:53,850 --> 00:25:54,780 important? They 451 00:25:54,780 --> 00:25:58,590 were very a lot of them were like midgets like this. Yeah. 452 00:25:58,590 --> 00:26:03,150 And the thing is, it's so I took no offense when my friend Gary 453 00:26:03,180 --> 00:26:08,610 would assign me to, for instance, a former naval 454 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:12,240 commander, submarine commander, because submarine commanders are 455 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:16,890 short, I am about five foot eight. And so I could, I can 456 00:26:16,890 --> 00:26:21,690 shield him. But there were a few that were Donald Trump is a tall 457 00:26:21,690 --> 00:26:27,300 man. And I would just think you'd want people at least his 458 00:26:27,300 --> 00:26:30,780 height. But again, I don't know. But I also noticed like, there 459 00:26:30,780 --> 00:26:33,210 are a couple of people I noticed in the crowd that stood out. I 460 00:26:33,210 --> 00:26:35,970 don't know who they were. There's one guy that just 461 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:40,500 they're standing. That was really weird. But I will say 462 00:26:40,500 --> 00:26:46,650 this, when I got the audio of the when they did their huddle 463 00:26:46,650 --> 00:26:51,240 around him the Secret Service. There's some things that the 464 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:55,860 media is censoring right now. And I think it's because Secret 465 00:26:55,860 --> 00:27:00,330 Service has been pushing diversity, equity and inclusion 466 00:27:00,330 --> 00:27:05,430 with the goal of having 30% Women by like, 2030 what I did 467 00:27:05,430 --> 00:27:09,720 here in the audio that has been censored, they've just cut the 468 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:15,420 sound for the split second, but I caught it early. Is you hear 469 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:20,370 through Donald Trump's mic, one of the female agents saying what 470 00:27:20,370 --> 00:27:26,520 are we doing? Now as a security professional, cannot a secret 471 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:32,520 service guy but I'm really good. You always know what you're 472 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:33,120 doing. 473 00:27:35,730 --> 00:27:39,180 John C Dvorak: Yeah, which brings me to another couple of 474 00:27:39,180 --> 00:27:42,270 points that are interesting that me now the media obviously bleep 475 00:27:42,270 --> 00:27:46,620 bleep that out. So I've never heard that I've heard either. 476 00:27:47,340 --> 00:27:49,350 And but I have her I have 477 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,710 Adam Curry: what I what I did here is I heard on your on your 478 00:27:52,710 --> 00:27:56,250 go. Alright, go. And then they did nothing goes that just he's 479 00:27:56,250 --> 00:27:58,620 still on the floor. They're supposed to 480 00:27:58,620 --> 00:28:00,810 John C Dvorak: Yeah, that was weird. There were two other 481 00:28:01,260 --> 00:28:06,300 censorship issues, though. One of them was the New York at this 482 00:28:06,300 --> 00:28:10,470 was was a whole segment of the Goodfellas show and I could have 483 00:28:10,470 --> 00:28:13,680 clipped it, I suppose. But I can just say it they they are 484 00:28:13,710 --> 00:28:17,130 censoring the photo of Trump with his fist in the air and the 485 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:19,350 flag in the background. And they're taking the flag out 486 00:28:19,350 --> 00:28:24,060 Adam Curry: by request by requests. I have. Unnamed editor 487 00:28:24,060 --> 00:28:27,810 of quote, major news outlet wants the media to stop using 488 00:28:27,810 --> 00:28:31,140 the iconic photo of Trump because it helps Trump. 489 00:28:32,100 --> 00:28:35,280 John C Dvorak: Yeah, so the news media is deciding not to use a 490 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,620 real photo that hasn't been altered. 491 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,400 Adam Curry: The whole thing was set up to get that picture. 492 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:44,220 Don't you know that this whole thing is the Inside Job false 493 00:28:44,220 --> 00:28:44,790 flag. 494 00:28:46,050 --> 00:28:48,330 John C Dvorak: Now that you and I want the other thing that's 495 00:28:48,330 --> 00:28:51,420 been taken out and I do remember seeing this, and then I don't 496 00:28:51,420 --> 00:28:55,560 haven't seen it since, which is one of the incompetent Secret 497 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,830 Service guys had a rifle. And it's I don't think it was one of 498 00:28:58,830 --> 00:29:01,920 the girls. I mean, we do know about the girl can't holster her 499 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:05,760 gun. Yeah, that's been played up on the Twitter and everyplace 500 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,100 else, she can't get it, she got the gun out and she couldn't put 501 00:29:08,100 --> 00:29:12,750 it back. And this was She held it out and kept it in our 502 00:29:12,780 --> 00:29:17,370 possession of holding it. But there's a shot of a guy whose 503 00:29:17,460 --> 00:29:20,370 deeds he did these people are all confused and this guy's got 504 00:29:20,370 --> 00:29:24,060 this rifle and he had any actually pointed it at Trump. 505 00:29:25,650 --> 00:29:30,180 Adam Curry: You know, just on that, on that topic. What 506 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:34,170 bothered me is so many people were behind the president 507 00:29:34,350 --> 00:29:38,580 roaming around photographers like zipping across to the front 508 00:29:38,580 --> 00:29:43,590 and not a single, a single reaction from any of the law 509 00:29:43,590 --> 00:29:48,270 enforcement or Secret Service. And maybe maybe we should just 510 00:29:48,270 --> 00:29:51,960 consider that we don't actually live in in the West Wing 511 00:29:51,990 --> 00:29:57,600 television series, and that in reality, the presidents are a 512 00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,970 lot less safe than than we do. 513 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:00,960 Unknown: Er leave, 514 00:30:01,020 --> 00:30:03,990 Adam Curry: you know, it's like, mate. Let me just read this for 515 00:30:03,990 --> 00:30:08,430 a second. Our anonymous lobbyist checked in with me, and he's in 516 00:30:08,430 --> 00:30:12,000 Milwaukee at the RNC. You remember the anonymous lobbyist? 517 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:12,750 John C Dvorak: Oh yeah. 518 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:14,970 Adam Curry: He says the amount of security and police presence 519 00:30:14,970 --> 00:30:17,580 in Milwaukee for the RNC is shocking, actually very 520 00:30:17,580 --> 00:30:20,610 impressive. I work for an organization who put on a party 521 00:30:20,610 --> 00:30:22,800 for attendees after the convention last night on 522 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:26,790 Tuesday. there that basically says this is one week of 523 00:30:26,790 --> 00:30:30,270 partying from lunchtime till the morning hours, just outside the 524 00:30:30,270 --> 00:30:32,880 front of our event building are barriers to stop vehicles from 525 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:36,120 proceeding into the hard security zone. There are two 526 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:39,390 security zones around the forum soft and hard which span 527 00:30:39,540 --> 00:30:42,000 multiple blocks in all directions vehicles are allowed 528 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:45,360 in the hard security zone, but must pass through a designated 529 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,630 checkpoint where a bomb check on the vehicle is performed. In 530 00:30:48,630 --> 00:30:51,210 front of our van building was not a designated vehicle 531 00:30:51,210 --> 00:30:54,240 checkpoint. At the barriers in front of our van building Secret 532 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,240 Service was stationed in an unmarked patrol vehicle. And the 533 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,520 building next to our event building was actually housing 534 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:03,120 Secret Service officers for the week of the convention. During 535 00:31:03,270 --> 00:31:06,090 setup of the event, broad sunny daylight I was in the front of 536 00:31:06,090 --> 00:31:08,670 the building, assisting with various tasks to prepare for the 537 00:31:08,670 --> 00:31:12,210 party, a man on a moped managed to speed through the security 538 00:31:12,210 --> 00:31:15,750 barrier into the heart zone unabated by the barrier, which 539 00:31:15,750 --> 00:31:19,560 was designed to stop cars of course not mopeds oops. As soon 540 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,810 as the moped got through the barriers, a Secret Service 541 00:31:21,810 --> 00:31:25,830 Officer popped out of his duty vehicle. He walks over to me and 542 00:31:25,830 --> 00:31:29,580 says, Did you see the man on the moped? I said yes. With some 543 00:31:29,610 --> 00:31:32,160 additional trivial comments, the Secret Service officer says, 544 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:36,240 Well, I didn't want to kill the guy, so I let him through. I 545 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:41,220 mean, in reality, you're just not as safe as everyone thinks 546 00:31:41,220 --> 00:31:45,540 you are. It's just a fact of life. You know, Trump is not 547 00:31:45,570 --> 00:31:49,470 necessarily safe tonight at the event. I mean, anything could be 548 00:31:49,470 --> 00:31:53,130 hidden in the in the, if they want to get him they'll get him 549 00:31:53,190 --> 00:31:58,950 eventually. Without intervention of some kind. So we need to stop 550 00:31:58,950 --> 00:32:03,570 dreaming that we live in this fantasy of Harrison Ford, and 551 00:32:03,570 --> 00:32:07,710 Secret Service and police and everybody does everything right. 552 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:11,760 It's just shoot a shot the guy in the moped, yes, right to the 553 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:17,220 noggin. I mean, seriously, that that's the reality of it. We're 554 00:32:17,220 --> 00:32:20,190 living. We're all living in a fantasy world, you know, 555 00:32:20,190 --> 00:32:24,600 preconditioned by movies and television. It's just not so 556 00:32:24,630 --> 00:32:27,990 it's hard to do this kind of protection. It's hard. 557 00:32:29,940 --> 00:32:32,610 John C Dvorak: So let's just do the damn bungee nose. Take on 558 00:32:32,610 --> 00:32:35,370 some of this bungee. No. All right, 559 00:32:35,700 --> 00:32:39,210 Adam Curry: everybody get ready. Remember, code bond Gino for 10% 560 00:32:39,210 --> 00:32:39,540 off. 561 00:32:39,810 --> 00:32:42,930 Unknown: A high level source reached out to me last night and 562 00:32:42,930 --> 00:32:47,370 said to me that the rooftop that the shooter engaged from as I 563 00:32:47,370 --> 00:32:51,060 told you last night during the Tucker Carlson special and anon 564 00:32:51,060 --> 00:32:56,100 Don Jr. Show was actually supposed to be posted by a local 565 00:32:56,100 --> 00:33:00,960 police department or non secret service counter sniper team. So 566 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:04,080 we're clear on the facts. There were two counter sniper teams 567 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:08,070 from the Secret Service to those two were assigned to the scene. 568 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,700 That rooftop was obviously deemed a threat. It was a line 569 00:33:11,700 --> 00:33:14,910 of sight issue. So because they didn't have the assets and I'll 570 00:33:14,910 --> 00:33:18,840 get to why in a few minutes. It involves Dr. Jill Biden, who has 571 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:22,230 a extremely low threat level relative to Donald Trump. Now, 572 00:33:22,650 --> 00:33:26,550 this is the breaking news right for some reason that local 573 00:33:26,550 --> 00:33:29,430 police but this is not about Monday morning quarterbacking 574 00:33:29,430 --> 00:33:31,500 folks again, this is not a football game. These are 575 00:33:31,500 --> 00:33:36,420 people's lives. For some reason, that local tactical counter 576 00:33:36,420 --> 00:33:40,050 sniper team didn't make it to the roof. What I'm hearing from 577 00:33:40,050 --> 00:33:45,060 sources is that that tactical team position that through a 578 00:33:45,060 --> 00:33:51,240 second floor window, which seeds the high ground now I wish I 579 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:55,560 wasn't breaking this on my show. The fact that nobody is 580 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:58,950 comfortable talking to the media because there's such insider 581 00:33:58,950 --> 00:34:01,830 hacks, they're afraid they're all going to be exposed and they 582 00:34:01,830 --> 00:34:06,060 all have to come to me candidly, folks is a travesty. Wait John, 583 00:34:06,060 --> 00:34:06,390 breaking 584 00:34:06,390 --> 00:34:09,300 Adam Curry: news breaking coming to bed. I love you have a good 585 00:34:09,300 --> 00:34:12,660 trip. All right, honey, I love you. Tina is leaving for 586 00:34:12,660 --> 00:34:17,100 Indiana. Oh that yeah, sorry. That was breaking 587 00:34:18,659 --> 00:34:21,779 John C Dvorak: the thing that pointed that Yeah. Sorry about 588 00:34:21,779 --> 00:34:25,769 that joke. Sorry. The point of that was why are you know that 589 00:34:25,769 --> 00:34:28,979 Bungie and I agreed with this and nobody's talking to the 590 00:34:28,979 --> 00:34:31,049 media about this? Because these guys like 591 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,130 Adam Curry: Sorry, right. Now we just got the dog barks. It 592 00:34:35,130 --> 00:34:36,720 wasn't me. The dog is barking. Oh, 593 00:34:37,889 --> 00:34:43,349 John C Dvorak: the the media are partisan hacks and you can't 594 00:34:43,349 --> 00:34:46,949 talk to him. You get busted. You get outed. They're just not 595 00:34:46,949 --> 00:34:51,029 trustworthy. So like that's been Geno's lament Was that why are 596 00:34:51,029 --> 00:34:53,939 they telling me this stuff? I mean, I'm just a talk show host. 597 00:34:54,809 --> 00:34:57,839 And that's where I thought the point where that really was. 598 00:34:59,220 --> 00:35:00,120 Unknown: Um, A 599 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:07,170 Adam Curry: couple of things. First of all, if we really want 600 00:35:07,170 --> 00:35:10,590 to go back to the genesis of hurting the President, I'm going 601 00:35:10,590 --> 00:35:15,150 to put that squarely on. Kathy Griffin. She kicked it all off 602 00:35:15,150 --> 00:35:19,680 with the Trump severed head. And boy did she pay for it dearly 603 00:35:20,070 --> 00:35:23,550 with her career and with her health. So I just want to send 604 00:35:23,670 --> 00:35:26,430 John C Dvorak: her a hell so I get by someone who's gone 605 00:35:26,430 --> 00:35:27,390 downhill Yeah, I 606 00:35:27,390 --> 00:35:30,330 Adam Curry: mean that so I we don't have to be mad at her but 607 00:35:30,330 --> 00:35:38,190 she did really start this this Phoebe Be quiet. This, there's 608 00:35:38,550 --> 00:35:41,790 the things that bother me. And well, okay, let me let me step 609 00:35:41,790 --> 00:35:45,270 back a second. From looking at all of the videos that people 610 00:35:45,270 --> 00:35:49,170 have sent me all of the personal videos, people taking all the 611 00:35:49,170 --> 00:35:53,700 rumble stuff, all the Bridey on stuff, all the cue stuff. I can 612 00:35:53,700 --> 00:35:58,140 safely say we have a lot of snipers in our country. 613 00:36:00,390 --> 00:36:01,560 John C Dvorak: Yeah, I noticed that 614 00:36:01,590 --> 00:36:05,730 Adam Curry: we got a lot of snipers. A lot of just go 615 00:36:05,730 --> 00:36:08,280 John C Dvorak: on Twitter, the number of snipers in the 616 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:10,050 woodwork. We 617 00:36:10,050 --> 00:36:12,690 Adam Curry: got snot if you need a sniper just come here and 618 00:36:12,690 --> 00:36:15,480 throw a brick. And you got a sniper. I mean, it's 619 00:36:15,510 --> 00:36:25,170 unbelievable. This reeks to me completely of an FBI type 620 00:36:25,170 --> 00:36:31,170 operation which was probably not supposed to include a gun. And I 621 00:36:31,170 --> 00:36:38,640 say this because of the very prototypical TV why we got 622 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:42,390 people working on the bathroom upset. I say this because the 623 00:36:42,390 --> 00:36:45,720 very prototypical we're gonna get we're gonna we're gonna jack 624 00:36:45,720 --> 00:36:50,730 you up online, probably while you're playing a game, which is 625 00:36:50,730 --> 00:36:55,620 now is now known that he posted some messages on on on Steam 626 00:36:55,740 --> 00:36:56,580 gaming site, 627 00:36:57,390 --> 00:36:58,020 Unknown: baby. 628 00:37:00,030 --> 00:37:03,330 Adam Curry: And we're going to give you some explosive devices, 629 00:37:03,330 --> 00:37:05,910 I'm going to give you a remote control. And when we give you 630 00:37:05,910 --> 00:37:08,190 the signal, you press that button is going to blow up it's 631 00:37:08,190 --> 00:37:09,210 going to be awesome. 632 00:37:09,630 --> 00:37:12,390 John C Dvorak: He did have some explosive devices in his car and 633 00:37:12,390 --> 00:37:13,560 they found some at the house 634 00:37:13,590 --> 00:37:16,380 Unknown: the butler Township police were not responsible for 635 00:37:16,380 --> 00:37:19,440 the security of the building, according tonight, but it's 636 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:24,030 unclear which local agency was the Secret Service says it was 637 00:37:24,060 --> 00:37:27,630 outside of their security perimeter, and was primarily the 638 00:37:27,630 --> 00:37:30,660 responsibility of local law enforcement. Even though the 639 00:37:30,660 --> 00:37:35,490 rooftop had a vantage point 148 yards from the podium the 640 00:37:35,490 --> 00:37:40,410 AR 15 or variations the M four has a maximum effective range of 641 00:37:40,410 --> 00:37:42,720 656 yards retired 642 00:37:42,720 --> 00:37:45,720 Secret Service agent rich star poli also worked for the 643 00:37:45,720 --> 00:37:47,970 Department of Homeland Security under Trump, 644 00:37:48,030 --> 00:37:51,090 that building was nowhere near the outer perimeter. There is no 645 00:37:51,090 --> 00:37:54,090 excuse for not having someone posted on the roof of that 646 00:37:54,090 --> 00:37:54,570 building. 647 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,210 The Secret Service tells ABC News that no one was put on the 648 00:37:57,210 --> 00:38:00,810 roof because it was dangerously sloped. That argument called 649 00:38:00,810 --> 00:38:04,410 into question because of images like these. The Secret Service 650 00:38:04,410 --> 00:38:07,320 did not respond to NBC News's multiple requests for comment 651 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:10,590 putting out a statement on X overnight. We are deeply 652 00:38:10,590 --> 00:38:13,260 grateful to the officers who ran towards danger to locate the 653 00:38:13,260 --> 00:38:16,500 gunman and to all our local partners for their unwavering 654 00:38:16,500 --> 00:38:18,480 commitment. 70 655 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:20,850 It looks like a lot of pieces may be falling into place. 656 00:38:21,180 --> 00:38:23,670 You're also learning there was another moment along the way 657 00:38:23,670 --> 00:38:26,070 that the shooter had been reported as suspicious. 658 00:38:27,930 --> 00:38:30,990 Yeah, last year for officials tell us that rally goers notice 659 00:38:30,990 --> 00:38:35,040 crooks at the metal detectors, pacing and acting strangely, 660 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:38,670 police then notified the Secret Service. According to a US 661 00:38:38,670 --> 00:38:42,180 official all of this happening before crooks got on that 662 00:38:42,180 --> 00:38:42,840 rooftop. So 663 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:46,050 Adam Curry: all of this happened an hour before. I mean, this has 664 00:38:46,350 --> 00:38:50,580 FBI written all over it. How many times have they given some 665 00:38:50,580 --> 00:38:54,480 poor sap a remote control? You press this you blow it up? It'll 666 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:57,870 be awesome. You know, you'd be doing something good. The kid 667 00:38:57,870 --> 00:39:03,870 literally post on Steam, like July 13. I'm making my premiere 668 00:39:04,050 --> 00:39:08,490 and it's gonna be awesome. And I'm paraphrasing. I don't think 669 00:39:08,490 --> 00:39:12,630 they expected him to have the gun and he popped off two shots 670 00:39:12,630 --> 00:39:17,220 before it even it's not like he was an expert assassin. In fact, 671 00:39:17,490 --> 00:39:20,970 according to reports from his schoolmates, he was a horrible 672 00:39:20,970 --> 00:39:24,840 shock, like laughably bad, and kicked him out of the gun. Boy, 673 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:24,900 I 674 00:39:24,900 --> 00:39:27,180 John C Dvorak: never heard a laughably bad Yes, I 675 00:39:27,180 --> 00:39:30,300 Adam Curry: had laughably, but laughably bad is the reporting I 676 00:39:30,300 --> 00:39:34,530 have. So and So then, what really bugs me is that they 677 00:39:34,530 --> 00:39:40,110 start to spin the narrative. And the first narrative which popped 678 00:39:40,110 --> 00:39:43,560 up a day ago was this naughty one. 679 00:39:43,590 --> 00:39:46,200 Unknown: Tonight, a new report that security around Donald 680 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:49,860 Trump was increased in recent weeks, because US intelligence 681 00:39:49,860 --> 00:39:53,220 learned of an Iranian plot to kill him. According to three 682 00:39:53,220 --> 00:39:56,280 officials briefed on the matter, raising even more questions 683 00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:59,370 about how a 20 year old gunman in rural Pennsylvania with no 684 00:39:59,370 --> 00:40:02,760 apparent connect To the Iranian plot was able to get on a 685 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,190 rooftop last Saturday. And 686 00:40:05,190 --> 00:40:08,340 Adam Curry: so not so they try it. Oh, it was Iran. It was an 687 00:40:08,340 --> 00:40:11,550 Iranian plot everybody. It was Iran who did this. That's 688 00:40:11,550 --> 00:40:15,390 narrative spin number one, which of course results in hilarious 689 00:40:15,390 --> 00:40:18,690 gas from the mainstream media. Listen to this morning. 690 00:40:18,690 --> 00:40:20,790 Unknown: We're learning more about the increased security 691 00:40:20,790 --> 00:40:24,270 around former President Trump before Saturday's assassination 692 00:40:24,300 --> 00:40:24,690 attempt. Yeah, 693 00:40:24,690 --> 00:40:29,670 it all comes as US intelligence directed and Iranian plot. But 694 00:40:31,650 --> 00:40:33,330 Adam Curry: she literally said, Yeah. 695 00:40:35,250 --> 00:40:37,800 John C Dvorak: Direct in Iranian plot, 696 00:40:37,860 --> 00:40:41,070 Unknown: yeah, it all comes as US intelligence directed and 697 00:40:41,070 --> 00:40:42,840 Iranian plot. Truth 698 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:45,450 Adam Curry: wants to come out. So that was that was yesterday. 699 00:40:45,540 --> 00:40:46,410 Today, though. 700 00:40:46,530 --> 00:40:47,490 John C Dvorak: This is good one. 701 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:49,920 Adam Curry: This is the new one. This is this goes back to he was 702 00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:52,800 a gamer. He was an INCEL. New 703 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:57,360 Unknown: this morning, a source tells CNN that the gunman wrote 704 00:40:57,390 --> 00:41:03,480 on the gaming platform steam apparently before quote, July 705 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:10,260 30, will be my premiere. Watch as it unfolds. CNN senior 706 00:41:10,260 --> 00:41:12,390 national security analyst, former assistant secretary for 707 00:41:12,390 --> 00:41:15,060 the Department of Homeland Security, Julia Cayambe, is with 708 00:41:15,060 --> 00:41:18,960 us now. So what do you think about that there was some kind 709 00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:23,010 of cryptic, somewhat cryptic posting, from the shooter. 710 00:41:23,250 --> 00:41:25,770 Yeah, so he knew what's interesting about all the 711 00:41:25,770 --> 00:41:30,060 information we're getting out is now is that he knew that there 712 00:41:30,060 --> 00:41:35,670 was some performative, violent action that he wanted to do, 713 00:41:35,670 --> 00:41:39,180 right. So there's, because he's looking at the DNC dates, he's 714 00:41:39,180 --> 00:41:42,270 looking at the Trump dates, he's, he's sort of searching all 715 00:41:42,270 --> 00:41:46,830 around. He then focuses on a relatively close event for him 716 00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:51,960 geographically, which is Trump. So we know that for reasons that 717 00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:56,700 might be you know, psychological, historical, for 718 00:41:56,700 --> 00:42:01,980 him, cultural, he's isolated, I keep looking for a moment to get 719 00:42:01,980 --> 00:42:05,760 his headline. What's interesting is, he doesn't care what the 720 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:09,060 headline is, I mean, in other words, his search history now is 721 00:42:09,060 --> 00:42:12,660 showing someone who's sort of scrambling for an ideology. And 722 00:42:12,660 --> 00:42:16,620 that's what so I think you for this kind of political 723 00:42:16,620 --> 00:42:19,830 assassination attempt is, we generally have a mode of 724 00:42:19,830 --> 00:42:22,650 relatively quickly they either don't like the candidate, right, 725 00:42:22,650 --> 00:42:27,090 so or trying to do something to impress someone to say, the 726 00:42:27,090 --> 00:42:30,060 Ronald Reagan assassination attempt. And so I think we're 727 00:42:30,060 --> 00:42:34,080 going to learn a lot more and what we may learn, John, is that 728 00:42:34,110 --> 00:42:36,480 we can't put a nice bow around this. 729 00:42:37,500 --> 00:42:42,930 Adam Curry: Yes, you can. Insell loner, no, no girlfriends, 730 00:42:42,930 --> 00:42:46,980 bullied at school playing video games, wanted to make a name for 731 00:42:46,980 --> 00:42:51,900 himself had no political motive, very well done, well done. And 732 00:42:51,930 --> 00:42:56,460 just as stupid and bumbling as, as the Secret Service, and no 733 00:42:56,460 --> 00:43:00,930 disrespect. I mean, it's just the fact you know, half of these 734 00:43:00,930 --> 00:43:03,960 people probably don't train enough in a in a real life 735 00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:07,800 situation. You know, one of our producers also mailed in, well, 736 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:12,240 you know, the DEI hire, she's probably our first real live 737 00:43:12,240 --> 00:43:15,210 event, you know that something really happened. And maybe, you 738 00:43:15,210 --> 00:43:18,810 know, she was adrenaline's flowing, couldn't reholster her 739 00:43:18,810 --> 00:43:23,550 weapon. But that's because we all believe in the movies. So 740 00:43:23,610 --> 00:43:28,020 then we have this other fantastic, fantastic quote from 741 00:43:28,020 --> 00:43:31,980 The Secret Service Director Cheatle why no one was stationed 742 00:43:31,980 --> 00:43:34,980 on the roof, which has just resulted in hilarious memes 743 00:43:35,010 --> 00:43:35,520 Secret 744 00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:39,420 Unknown: Service Director is saying a decision was made early 745 00:43:39,420 --> 00:43:44,610 on not to place any personnel on the rope. That building in 746 00:43:44,610 --> 00:43:48,450 particular has a slope roof at its highest point, she said, and 747 00:43:48,450 --> 00:43:52,650 so you know, there's a safety factor that would be considered 748 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:55,860 there that we wouldn't want to put somebody up on a sloped 749 00:43:55,890 --> 00:43:56,790 roof. It's 750 00:43:56,790 --> 00:43:59,850 Adam Curry: hilarious. The memes like cows on the roof, you know, 751 00:44:00,660 --> 00:44:03,420 John C Dvorak: that roof is hardly even sloped. No, it's, 752 00:44:03,750 --> 00:44:07,380 Adam Curry: it's ridiculous. So everybody's full of crap. 753 00:44:07,620 --> 00:44:11,310 Everybody in the whole veil has just dropped has been lifted 754 00:44:11,310 --> 00:44:14,910 really? Like oh, oh, it turns out, you're not really safe. 755 00:44:14,910 --> 00:44:15,900 Give me a break. 756 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:19,350 John C Dvorak: But you remember when Trump first got elected in 757 00:44:19,350 --> 00:44:24,180 2016 He didn't trust the Secret Service and decided to have his 758 00:44:24,180 --> 00:44:25,800 own people. Yes. 759 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:28,680 Adam Curry: Now it's my understanding he still has his 760 00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:33,420 own people. It could be but I don't know which ones my 761 00:44:33,420 --> 00:44:36,480 understanding is he has special forces which may have been the 762 00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:39,330 military guys who who also see who pointed 763 00:44:39,330 --> 00:44:42,390 John C Dvorak: the gun at it. Yeah. See pretty ineffective. 764 00:44:42,720 --> 00:44:43,710 Now I have 765 00:44:43,710 --> 00:44:46,260 Adam Curry: two clips. And by the way, I just want to say 766 00:44:46,260 --> 00:44:51,480 again, Secret Service they all did shield him and that does 767 00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:54,360 take a certain amount of who takes a lot of guts so and you 768 00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:58,080 know I don't want to disparage people. I just being realistic 769 00:44:58,080 --> 00:44:58,950 about this. 770 00:45:00,750 --> 00:45:03,300 John C Dvorak: You have we have we have our to shooter new 771 00:45:03,300 --> 00:45:05,940 details. Let's get this out of the way. Okay, 772 00:45:05,970 --> 00:45:08,370 Unknown: we're learning new details about the suspected 773 00:45:08,370 --> 00:45:11,880 shooter who tried to assassinate former US President Donald 774 00:45:11,910 --> 00:45:16,110 Trump, or authority say Thomas Matthew crooks was scheduled to 775 00:45:16,110 --> 00:45:19,770 work the day of the shooting, but took the day off. Law 776 00:45:19,770 --> 00:45:23,910 enforcement said crooks first arouse suspicion three hours 777 00:45:23,910 --> 00:45:27,780 before the shooting at the rally venue when he pre our security 778 00:45:27,780 --> 00:45:32,070 are carrying a rangefinder. The binocular type devices are used 779 00:45:32,070 --> 00:45:35,790 by hunters or target shooters to measure distances when setting 780 00:45:35,790 --> 00:45:37,140 up a long range shot 781 00:45:37,170 --> 00:45:39,870 Adam Curry: as amazing it's amazing. Hey, what's that rate 782 00:45:39,900 --> 00:45:43,020 arrange a rangefinder. Okay, carry on. 783 00:45:43,890 --> 00:45:47,400 John C Dvorak: Come on. And the other only other clip I've got 784 00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:49,590 on this is Butler Police Department clip. 785 00:45:50,910 --> 00:45:53,190 Adam Curry: Whereas Yes, God is here. Meanwhile, 786 00:45:53,190 --> 00:45:55,170 Unknown: the butler Police Department has confirmed its 787 00:45:55,170 --> 00:45:58,320 officers confronted the gunman on the roof outside the Trump 788 00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:01,380 rally last Saturday shortly before he fired the former 789 00:46:01,380 --> 00:46:04,080 president coming close to killing him more from MPRs 790 00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:04,980 Martin Kosti 791 00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:07,350 In a written statement the butler Township Police 792 00:46:07,350 --> 00:46:10,290 Department says its officers were assigned traffic duty 793 00:46:10,290 --> 00:46:13,710 outside the rally traffic but they broke free from that to 794 00:46:13,710 --> 00:46:16,770 respond to a report of a suspicious mail around a 795 00:46:16,770 --> 00:46:20,220 business called American glass research. They didn't find him 796 00:46:20,220 --> 00:46:23,400 at first, then one officer hoisted another to the roof 797 00:46:23,550 --> 00:46:26,310 where the gunman pointed his rifle at him, causing the 798 00:46:26,310 --> 00:46:30,180 officer to let go and fall. The statement says the gunman opened 799 00:46:30,180 --> 00:46:34,050 fire quote Moments later, it's still not clear whether the 800 00:46:34,050 --> 00:46:37,830 Secret Service's Protection Plan relied on the sheriff's office 801 00:46:37,860 --> 00:46:41,490 state police or other local officers to safeguard that 802 00:46:41,490 --> 00:46:42,150 rooftop. 803 00:46:43,050 --> 00:46:45,810 Adam Curry: So you know and you know me as a conspiracy 804 00:46:45,810 --> 00:46:50,250 therapist, I'm looking at everything. You know that that 805 00:46:50,250 --> 00:46:53,040 weird Q anon guy was in the audience. He didn't move. He 806 00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:57,540 knew it was coming. Q Q was all set up is it's all it's all. I 807 00:46:57,540 --> 00:47:00,870 mean, so just for the record, I completely believe that this 808 00:47:00,870 --> 00:47:04,740 happened. This kid was probably not even supposed to fire it's 809 00:47:04,770 --> 00:47:06,810 it feels completely like an FBI. 810 00:47:06,990 --> 00:47:09,600 John C Dvorak: Your thesis I liked the idea that this was an 811 00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:14,100 FBI another one another six weeks cycle FBI scam 812 00:47:14,130 --> 00:47:16,650 Adam Curry: not meant not meant to actually harm the president 813 00:47:16,650 --> 00:47:16,770 they 814 00:47:16,770 --> 00:47:20,790 John C Dvorak: have this and the kid because he was he was so I 815 00:47:20,790 --> 00:47:26,430 guess spun up by the FBI. That he decided you know, he's going 816 00:47:26,430 --> 00:47:29,370 to freelance instead. They picked the wrong guy. 817 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:31,860 Adam Curry: They well he even said that you got the wrong guy. 818 00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:34,650 He said it on that video. That's right. You got the wrong guy. 819 00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:38,070 I'm not just gonna detonate some bombs, which probably as far as 820 00:47:38,070 --> 00:47:42,600 I can tell, we're not detonate double, or deaths and double, 821 00:47:42,750 --> 00:47:45,120 which would be typical, which should be very and you haven't 822 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:47,100 heard Oh, yeah, they had to detonate him because they were 823 00:47:47,130 --> 00:47:49,500 bombs. No, he didn't. They didn't blow them up in the in 824 00:47:49,500 --> 00:47:53,010 the detonation unit. Now it's like is a little unclear about 825 00:47:53,010 --> 00:47:57,630 that. Okay, fine. Then we have the photo of the bullet. This is 826 00:47:57,630 --> 00:48:05,310 another point of contention. People saying that, it's, 827 00:48:05,610 --> 00:48:08,730 there's no reason there's no reason for this shot to have 828 00:48:08,730 --> 00:48:11,940 ever been made. And I'll explain why as we have Doug Mills from 829 00:48:11,940 --> 00:48:16,440 the New York Times who has been a photographer of presidents, I 830 00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:20,490 think since forever, forever, ever. He explains his settings. 831 00:48:20,490 --> 00:48:23,130 And he does say something interesting here. 832 00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:25,350 Unknown: My name is Doug Mills. I've been covering politics 833 00:48:25,350 --> 00:48:30,240 since 1983. And I was yesterday covering President Trump's rally 834 00:48:30,240 --> 00:48:33,240 in Butler, Pennsylvania. I was taking pictures and that's when 835 00:48:33,240 --> 00:48:36,000 the Pops started happening. And I just happened to have my 836 00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:38,640 finger on the shutter and I heard the Pops and just kept 837 00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:42,180 shooting. I didn't know what I captured. But when I got to my 838 00:48:42,180 --> 00:48:45,930 laptop, I could see that bullet flying behind his head because 839 00:48:45,930 --> 00:48:49,080 it's definitely not in the frames right before it. And it's 840 00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:52,290 not an afterwards it's only that one frame. And I was shooting an 841 00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:56,700 8,000th of a second. It captured that streak behind him. So 842 00:48:56,700 --> 00:49:00,030 Adam Curry: the so the theory goes no reason he was shooting 843 00:49:00,030 --> 00:49:04,470 at 1/8000 of a second. He wanted to get the shot of Trump's head 844 00:49:04,470 --> 00:49:09,870 exploding. I'm not a photography expert, 845 00:49:09,870 --> 00:49:11,700 John C Dvorak: but a lot of that's interesting. I haven't 846 00:49:11,700 --> 00:49:14,130 heard that angle. Oh, yeah. Well, so 847 00:49:14,130 --> 00:49:16,260 Adam Curry: first of all, he says here like I looked at my 848 00:49:16,260 --> 00:49:20,340 laptop. In an interview on NBC, which was too boring and too 849 00:49:20,340 --> 00:49:23,760 long. He says he sent it to his editor and his editor called him 850 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:26,460 and said hey, you don't you won't believe what you have. So 851 00:49:26,460 --> 00:49:31,500 there's a little discrepancy in his story there. But it's my 852 00:49:31,500 --> 00:49:36,150 understanding that if you are photographing in a very bright 853 00:49:36,150 --> 00:49:40,530 daylight environment and you want to blur out the background, 854 00:49:40,530 --> 00:49:44,490 you want to have your object very sharp that 1/8000 of a 855 00:49:44,490 --> 00:49:50,100 second is not completely out of the out of the range of ideas. 856 00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:52,230 Now you know more about it than I do. 857 00:49:54,180 --> 00:49:57,990 John C Dvorak: is pretty high shutter speed. But you can get 858 00:49:57,990 --> 00:50:01,800 some you can get some effects that you otherwise wouldn't have 859 00:50:03,240 --> 00:50:07,590 by shooting at that speed, that's a very high speed. I'm, 860 00:50:07,860 --> 00:50:11,100 you know, if he is he's a professional photographer, he 861 00:50:11,100 --> 00:50:14,010 wants to shoot a lot of shots. He's probably shooting like a 862 00:50:14,010 --> 00:50:15,090 maniac. I mean, 863 00:50:16,170 --> 00:50:19,050 Adam Curry: like, no more. It's more. I mean, these things do 864 00:50:19,230 --> 00:50:21,900 spray and pray. That's what you do. That's why he got That's 865 00:50:22,530 --> 00:50:24,000 John C Dvorak: right, exactly. There's two kinds of 866 00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:26,460 photographers I've run into over the years who, because I've had 867 00:50:26,460 --> 00:50:30,000 a lot of photos taken for one magazine or another. And there's 868 00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:33,930 two kinds of photographers you run into. The one is the like 869 00:50:33,930 --> 00:50:37,410 you just described, they take it, they sit you down, and they 870 00:50:37,410 --> 00:50:42,720 will take, I don't know, 200 pictures of you. Yeah. And then 871 00:50:42,720 --> 00:50:46,260 they'll, and then they show you the proofs and the doll on the 872 00:50:46,260 --> 00:50:48,690 sheet, little bitty pictures. And then you circled a couple 873 00:50:48,690 --> 00:50:50,640 that you might like, or he'll say, here's the one I want to 874 00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:55,290 use. And maybe you're allowed to select it or not depends on the 875 00:50:55,290 --> 00:50:58,410 photographer. Most of the time, they'd let you pick one that you 876 00:50:58,410 --> 00:51:01,650 don't look at any idiot. And then there's the other kind and 877 00:51:01,650 --> 00:51:04,830 I had this done for my when I did the telecommunications book 878 00:51:04,830 --> 00:51:10,020 in the 80s this guy he and this is the other kind of 879 00:51:10,020 --> 00:51:15,120 photographer and this is the artist. He shoots an eight by 10 880 00:51:15,120 --> 00:51:21,510 Negative Yeah, on a big giant camera set you up. Brings a 881 00:51:21,510 --> 00:51:24,090 makeup person in they stand you there. 882 00:51:24,330 --> 00:51:26,700 Adam Curry: We got to do a Polaroid first Polaroid. 883 00:51:27,750 --> 00:51:30,330 John C Dvorak: I don't remember the Polaroid on the hustle. The 884 00:51:30,330 --> 00:51:32,340 hospital for lighting the hospital blah, you put the 885 00:51:32,340 --> 00:51:35,790 Polaroid back on it first not a Hasselblad This is an I know a 886 00:51:35,790 --> 00:51:39,330 10 I know I'm just telling you. Yeah, Hasselblad guys are pretty 887 00:51:39,330 --> 00:51:42,930 close to the same thing. Because they got a big negative. So the 888 00:51:42,930 --> 00:51:47,100 guy sets up shop and he's got this big camera, they put you up 889 00:51:47,100 --> 00:51:49,620 there make you up, you're probably I don't remember the 890 00:51:49,620 --> 00:51:52,050 Polaroid but he probably did that just to get the lighting to 891 00:51:52,050 --> 00:51:57,780 make sure it looked okay. And then takes one picture. And it's 892 00:51:57,780 --> 00:52:02,970 perfect. That's a different kind of photographer. And so you have 893 00:52:02,970 --> 00:52:06,420 the two got two different styles. But, but shooting one 894 00:52:06,420 --> 00:52:08,970 1000 means you weren't really trying to get a lot of shots 895 00:52:08,970 --> 00:52:12,480 off. I'm sure this shooting that, you know, maximum frames 896 00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:14,460 per second blank, blank, blank blank. 897 00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:17,340 Adam Curry: I mean, there's a lot of people very suspicious of 898 00:52:17,340 --> 00:52:20,400 this. If that's all you got then okay, you wanted to get the 899 00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:25,680 exploding head shot of the year, you know, but I just exploding 900 00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:28,980 John C Dvorak: headshot would never be you know. So that 901 00:52:28,980 --> 00:52:31,950 doesn't make any sense. They're not nobody's going to print a 902 00:52:31,950 --> 00:52:33,990 shot of a guy's head exploding. 903 00:52:34,020 --> 00:52:37,650 Adam Curry: So now is the next part of the theory. Now and this 904 00:52:37,650 --> 00:52:42,630 one I actually wanted to call up Horowitz. But then I found a 905 00:52:42,630 --> 00:52:48,600 clip. This is the the wealth fund management that shorted the 906 00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:55,260 d j t stock. Yeah, the day before the shooting 12 million 907 00:52:55,260 --> 00:53:00,480 shares, which was not really a short it was a put, which is 908 00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:01,080 technically 909 00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:03,570 John C Dvorak: it's basically a short E. Okay. 910 00:53:04,230 --> 00:53:08,970 Adam Curry: And Jason Goodman called and got someone on the 911 00:53:08,970 --> 00:53:10,500 phone. Hello, 912 00:53:10,890 --> 00:53:12,090 Unknown: Alex. Is this 913 00:53:12,090 --> 00:53:16,320 Mr. Wagner? Yes. My name is Jason Goodman. We don't know 914 00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:18,630 each other. But I was calling to see if you're aware of this 915 00:53:18,630 --> 00:53:22,440 information that's going around the internet, about Austin 916 00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:29,070 private wealth, shorting 12 million shares of Trump media 917 00:53:29,070 --> 00:53:31,680 stock is this. Is there anything to this? There's a lot of 918 00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:34,260 information about your company going around right now. Right? 919 00:53:34,260 --> 00:53:39,000 I don't think so. It was a reporting error. So if you go 920 00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:43,830 back and look at that same baling, you'll see it show that 921 00:53:43,830 --> 00:53:46,620 it was a clerical error in the violin. Well, 922 00:53:46,620 --> 00:53:48,150 how did that occur? I mean, were you 923 00:53:48,150 --> 00:53:51,120 trying to short fewer shares than that? It's how could such 924 00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:53,940 an error like this, it seems like a remarkable coincidence 925 00:53:53,940 --> 00:53:57,960 for that dramatic of an error to occur the day before this 926 00:53:57,960 --> 00:53:59,370 historic incident, doesn't it? 927 00:54:01,350 --> 00:54:06,660 So the reporting is generated June 30. And it was a clerical 928 00:54:06,660 --> 00:54:11,460 error. I do believe we'll be releasing something to our 929 00:54:11,460 --> 00:54:14,730 website with more detail on a bid if you go look at the 930 00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:18,810 updated piling up the proper, proper data in there. 931 00:54:19,650 --> 00:54:22,740 Adam Curry: So that's something for Horowitz but I'm sure you 932 00:54:22,740 --> 00:54:23,130 can tell. 933 00:54:23,130 --> 00:54:26,940 John C Dvorak: I kind of talked about it. Yeah. About we talked 934 00:54:26,940 --> 00:54:30,000 about the stock and his response to the shooting which if 935 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:34,290 skyrocketed the next day was that squeezing shorts. Well, 936 00:54:34,290 --> 00:54:38,520 that well it was a put the puts a really just get wiped out, you 937 00:54:38,520 --> 00:54:40,710 know, it's not like you had to cover yours, right? 938 00:54:40,740 --> 00:54:43,590 Adam Curry: You don't even get don't get wiped out a put is is 939 00:54:43,590 --> 00:54:46,950 a is a fraction of the total share amount correct? 940 00:54:48,090 --> 00:54:50,220 John C Dvorak: Because it's basically an option is stock 941 00:54:50,220 --> 00:54:55,170 that's borrowed and sold and it's as an option option, right? 942 00:54:55,170 --> 00:54:58,500 So you lose your option. You basically it's not like actually 943 00:54:58,500 --> 00:55:00,540 when you actually short you can lose You're asking 944 00:55:01,500 --> 00:55:03,750 Adam Curry: your house and everything. Yeah, you can 945 00:55:03,750 --> 00:55:06,270 John C Dvorak: lose a lot of money if you're short against 946 00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:10,110 run up, I think, panic and you sell bad you buy Oh, 947 00:55:10,620 --> 00:55:13,500 Adam Curry: they also wrote call options. I think that a straddle 948 00:55:13,500 --> 00:55:13,980 going. 949 00:55:14,580 --> 00:55:16,890 John C Dvorak: Yeah, that would make sense. But I mean, there's 950 00:55:16,890 --> 00:55:18,840 these operations do that constantly. 951 00:55:18,870 --> 00:55:21,630 Adam Curry: But the second part of it is that this awesome 952 00:55:21,630 --> 00:55:26,100 wealth management fund, they donate a lot of money to Jews. 953 00:55:26,550 --> 00:55:29,490 So you know, I'm just saying that to do with it, I'm just 954 00:55:29,490 --> 00:55:34,530 saying, I'm just saying it was all kinds of stuff like that. 955 00:55:34,530 --> 00:55:38,790 So, so people are really going, sadly, a bit off the rails with 956 00:55:38,790 --> 00:55:44,010 this. Whereas I think the only explanation I can come to is, 957 00:55:44,640 --> 00:55:47,670 it's almost like Occam's razor. We've seen this from the FBI, 958 00:55:48,030 --> 00:55:50,220 the remote makes total sense. 959 00:55:51,390 --> 00:55:53,040 John C Dvorak: The FBI immediately took over the 960 00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:54,120 investigation. Of 961 00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:57,750 Adam Curry: course they did. And it will, you know, who knows if 962 00:55:57,750 --> 00:56:00,390 this will ever come out, because typically they do a report and 963 00:56:00,390 --> 00:56:02,790 they say, Well, I'm a confidential informant person 964 00:56:02,790 --> 00:56:06,180 and, you know, call in I talked to this kid for two months, and, 965 00:56:06,570 --> 00:56:09,630 you know, that would make nothing but it has all the 966 00:56:09,630 --> 00:56:13,710 hallmarks everything to make a big Bloom to make, you know, 967 00:56:13,710 --> 00:56:18,810 make some noise. Now, could that have been pro Trump may be I 968 00:56:18,810 --> 00:56:23,070 don't know. But there has always been a conspiracy against Trump, 969 00:56:23,070 --> 00:56:26,100 there is a conspiracy and there always will be the literal 970 00:56:26,100 --> 00:56:30,180 definition to breathe together. There is a conspiracy and it's 971 00:56:30,180 --> 00:56:36,240 massive. Its massive, they hate the guy would they I mean, 972 00:56:37,170 --> 00:56:40,350 John C Dvorak: a large contingent of the of the of the 973 00:56:40,350 --> 00:56:44,370 government yes of the government itself hates the guy this is 974 00:56:44,370 --> 00:56:49,020 true. The stock market and making any friends by making it 975 00:56:49,020 --> 00:56:52,320 by putting JD Vance in there who's who probably is more 976 00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:55,080 against the administrative state and Trump himself 977 00:56:57,150 --> 00:56:59,820 Adam Curry: well, the stock market responded very favorably 978 00:56:59,820 --> 00:57:03,450 to Trump surviving this assassination. 979 00:57:03,780 --> 00:57:07,800 John C Dvorak: Yes, the death it's fast it's gone way higher 980 00:57:07,800 --> 00:57:12,240 than I expected it to. I mean, it's up I think the Dow is at 42 981 00:57:12,240 --> 00:57:16,410 Now it's it should I am stunned is over 40 is amazing. It's 982 00:57:16,410 --> 00:57:21,120 amazing. It's just Yeah, but But it's over over heated our 983 00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:21,840 anyway. 984 00:57:23,310 --> 00:57:26,790 Adam Curry: Just for just because I love George Carlin 985 00:57:27,030 --> 00:57:31,230 wanted to play his 42nd bid on assassinations, which is always 986 00:57:31,230 --> 00:57:34,350 just fun to listen to We miss him assassination. 987 00:57:35,130 --> 00:57:36,900 Unknown: You know what's interesting about assassination? 988 00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:40,500 Well, not only does it change those popularity polls in a big 989 00:57:40,500 --> 00:57:44,970 fucking hurry. But it's also interesting to notice who it is 990 00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:47,760 we assassinate you ever notice who it is not to think of who it 991 00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:51,120 is we kill. It's always people who've told us to live together 992 00:57:51,120 --> 00:57:55,350 in harmony and try to love one another. Jesus Gandhi, Lincoln, 993 00:57:55,350 --> 00:57:58,200 John Kennedy, Bobby Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Medgar 994 00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:01,620 Evers, Malcolm X, John Lennon, they also try to live together 995 00:58:01,620 --> 00:58:02,220 peacefully 996 00:58:04,890 --> 00:58:05,880 in the fucking head 997 00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:13,200 apparently we're not ready for that. 998 00:58:15,810 --> 00:58:17,640 That's difficult behavior for us. 999 00:58:18,780 --> 00:58:19,620 Adam Curry: Miss George, 1000 00:58:19,650 --> 00:58:21,390 John C Dvorak: we need to wait that is a good bit 1001 00:58:21,390 --> 00:58:23,760 Adam Curry: we need to every couple of years and I need to 1002 00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:27,480 give you massive props. You called it You nailed it right on 1003 00:58:27,480 --> 00:58:31,620 the money. President Trump walks in on the first day of the 1004 00:58:31,620 --> 00:58:35,460 Republican National Convention with a big bandage on his ear. 1005 00:58:35,580 --> 00:58:37,770 You could not have been more right about this. 1006 00:58:38,340 --> 00:58:40,410 John C Dvorak: Yeah, why would you not do that? 1007 00:58:40,860 --> 00:58:43,410 Adam Curry: It was it was I mean, it was just it was so big 1008 00:58:43,410 --> 00:58:43,740 though. 1009 00:58:46,020 --> 00:58:48,420 John C Dvorak: There was criticized for their fact 1010 00:58:48,420 --> 00:58:50,460 there's a funny meme going around I might put it in the 1011 00:58:50,460 --> 00:58:56,670 next my pillow says no, the meme is I don't understand why he's 1012 00:58:56,670 --> 00:59:00,120 wearing such a big bandage what's what's he afraid of? And 1013 00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:03,390 then the person saying this The Meme Meme or has got a big giant 1014 00:59:03,390 --> 00:59:05,160 mask on Yeah, I've 1015 00:59:05,160 --> 00:59:09,270 Adam Curry: seen COVID mask so here guys. I'm sorry. I 1016 00:59:09,270 --> 00:59:13,020 John C Dvorak: was just gonna say the this became with some of 1017 00:59:13,470 --> 00:59:16,800 the MSNBC and some of these other I don't know if it's CNN 1018 00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:19,650 and MSNBC virtually. They started bitching about this 1019 00:59:19,650 --> 00:59:25,320 bandage. And, and so they had to get Ronnie Jackson or Jones 1020 00:59:25,320 --> 00:59:27,660 whatever's there. JOHNSON I can't remember his last name. 1021 00:59:28,860 --> 00:59:33,300 Jackson, I think who's Trump's still Trump's doctor? Yes, 1022 00:59:33,300 --> 00:59:37,350 Jackson check. He had to put the giant bandage on because the 1023 00:59:37,380 --> 00:59:41,700 nature of the wound is such that because at the end, that skin is 1024 00:59:41,700 --> 00:59:46,410 very susceptible. This is just really just cartilage. Yeah, it 1025 00:59:46,500 --> 00:59:51,120 is. He said Jackson said that if you touched it just touched it. 1026 00:59:51,660 --> 00:59:55,470 It would start bleeding so you had to protect it with a big 1027 00:59:55,470 --> 00:59:56,130 bandage. 1028 00:59:56,760 --> 01:00:00,180 Adam Curry: So Trump comes walking in and this is CNN with 1029 01:00:00,180 --> 01:00:05,970 former Fox host, Chris Wallace, and Jake Tapper, and even they 1030 01:00:05,970 --> 01:00:11,310 could not deny the electrifying moment that it was Chris Winston 1031 01:00:11,310 --> 01:00:14,550 Unknown: Churchill famously said nothing in life is so 1032 01:00:14,550 --> 01:00:19,980 exhilarating as to be shot at without effect. And you can see 1033 01:00:19,980 --> 01:00:24,270 that today the idea that just hours ago, a few days ago, this 1034 01:00:24,270 --> 01:00:28,170 man and assassin's bullet whizzed by him, hit him in the 1035 01:00:28,170 --> 01:00:33,990 ear, inches from his temple, and it'd be just by the slightest 1036 01:00:34,380 --> 01:00:38,790 fraction of an inch. He survived shot without effect. And you can 1037 01:00:38,790 --> 01:00:45,090 see the, the joy of this crowd, I gotta tell you, as somebody 1038 01:00:45,090 --> 01:00:50,160 who's been covering these, these conventions since 1964, that may 1039 01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:52,950 have been the most electric moment I ever saw that was quite 1040 01:00:53,280 --> 01:00:56,640 extraordinary. You can do whether you like the man or not, 1041 01:00:57,000 --> 01:00:57,600 that was 1042 01:00:59,970 --> 01:01:03,480 well, I mean, this is a crowd these 10s of 1000s of people who 1043 01:01:03,660 --> 01:01:09,240 love Donald Trump, and they, this, this figure that that 1044 01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:11,010 figures so prominently in their lives, 1045 01:01:11,040 --> 01:01:14,970 and it's so interesting tonight, there has been zero talk about 1046 01:01:15,690 --> 01:01:19,980 the Democrats and rhetoric and political rhetoric and blaming 1047 01:01:19,980 --> 01:01:23,910 the media, why that's all been talked about. Evidence, a 1048 01:01:23,910 --> 01:01:27,900 miracle. And I think that's what most of these people view is 1049 01:01:27,900 --> 01:01:31,260 that it is by the grace of God, that Donald Trump is here 1050 01:01:31,260 --> 01:01:34,410 tonight and representing them going forward. So 1051 01:01:34,410 --> 01:01:37,950 Adam Curry: that was kind of interesting. Trump's first truth 1052 01:01:37,950 --> 01:01:43,770 or truth, truth post truth was, this was God alone who saved me. 1053 01:01:44,070 --> 01:01:47,370 And the certainly the first day of the convention, there was a 1054 01:01:47,370 --> 01:01:48,990 lot of God talk two 1055 01:01:48,990 --> 01:01:54,030 Unknown: days ago, evil came for the man we admire and love so 1056 01:01:54,030 --> 01:01:59,790 much. I thank God that His hand was on President Trump. Because 1057 01:01:59,790 --> 01:02:06,450 on Saturday, the devil came to Pennsylvania holding a rifle. 1058 01:02:07,050 --> 01:02:10,830 But an American lion got back up on his feet. 1059 01:02:14,310 --> 01:02:17,610 Continuing on the religious theme and actual man of God paid 1060 01:02:17,610 --> 01:02:21,000 tribute to Trump's rhetorical style, much to the former 1061 01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:22,200 president's July, 1062 01:02:22,680 --> 01:02:29,190 you're gonna be so blessed. You're gonna be tired of being 1063 01:02:29,190 --> 01:02:34,680 blessed. I guarantee it's believe me. 1064 01:02:35,370 --> 01:02:36,510 Adam Curry: That guy was pretty funny. 1065 01:02:36,540 --> 01:02:39,660 John C Dvorak: Did you see him? Yeah, you know, the whole 1066 01:02:39,660 --> 01:02:43,020 convention has been a tear jerker, the way they 1067 01:02:43,140 --> 01:02:46,110 orchestrated and I have to say that I have seen a lot of these 1068 01:02:46,110 --> 01:02:49,380 conventions. I went to one once when I was in high school, which 1069 01:02:49,950 --> 01:02:53,790 was that where Wallace was, it was it was it was a long time 1070 01:02:53,790 --> 01:02:59,640 ago. Was I think was the last San Francisco convention 1071 01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:03,870 whatever the case was you that you can get into these things. I 1072 01:03:03,870 --> 01:03:06,660 didn't remember ever being checked for guns or anything but 1073 01:03:06,660 --> 01:03:10,980 you get in as you go it this is the era of the all the signs 1074 01:03:10,980 --> 01:03:13,920 used to be on sticks. I noticed this two things that yes, 1075 01:03:13,920 --> 01:03:18,030 convention. Yes, there's no stick, no sticks. People just 1076 01:03:18,030 --> 01:03:22,350 holding different signs up as though they run the like, card 1077 01:03:22,350 --> 01:03:25,500 section of a college football game where they have these 1078 01:03:25,500 --> 01:03:28,020 different cards, they lift this way, okay, lift up card number 1079 01:03:28,020 --> 01:03:31,920 three, and they lift up to one of the cards and every night is 1080 01:03:31,920 --> 01:03:34,560 a different card. Because they've had this they've made 1081 01:03:34,560 --> 01:03:37,860 this convention thematic with a different theme for every night. 1082 01:03:38,070 --> 01:03:41,850 And they preface all the speeches, all the big, big boy 1083 01:03:41,850 --> 01:03:45,330 speeches, with the general public coming out and giving 1084 01:03:45,330 --> 01:03:49,980 their stories, and they're just heartbreaking. And they just to 1085 01:03:49,980 --> 01:03:53,700 make it sound like the country is falling apart. And it's very 1086 01:03:53,700 --> 01:03:57,330 well done. I think this is the best orchestrated convention 1087 01:03:57,330 --> 01:04:00,990 I've ever seen. And so far as showmanship is concerned, you 1088 01:04:00,990 --> 01:04:04,140 can see Trump's the TV background and you know, he's 1089 01:04:04,140 --> 01:04:07,980 talking to Bert Burnett and some of his buddies to make the 1090 01:04:08,040 --> 01:04:11,970 design to sing the way it is. It's spectacular. The 1091 01:04:12,900 --> 01:04:15,930 Adam Curry: last night they had the Goldstar families 13 of them 1092 01:04:15,930 --> 01:04:21,780 who lost kids in Afghanistan home man they all went up there 1093 01:04:21,780 --> 01:04:26,730 and said Joe Biden lied He said not a single serviceman or woman 1094 01:04:26,730 --> 01:04:31,620 lost lost their life on his watch. He has never said my 1095 01:04:31,620 --> 01:04:35,340 child's name out loud and then they all went you know, they 1096 01:04:35,340 --> 01:04:38,670 said the names out loud and the crowd said their names out loud. 1097 01:04:39,060 --> 01:04:42,240 I mean, that was just like an even CNN I didn't clip all of 1098 01:04:42,240 --> 01:04:45,750 that but even CNN was like, well, that's a political you 1099 01:04:45,750 --> 01:04:49,350 know deathblow right there which it was a lot 1100 01:04:49,350 --> 01:04:51,900 John C Dvorak: of it was a I would say all ever all three 1101 01:04:51,900 --> 01:04:56,130 days so far and tonight OB Trump's night have been like 1102 01:04:56,130 --> 01:04:59,700 that. They've been just it's been. I've never seen anything 1103 01:04:59,700 --> 01:05:01,170 so Well done. They 1104 01:05:01,170 --> 01:05:06,660 Adam Curry: had the worst speech I think was Don JR. He's not a 1105 01:05:06,660 --> 01:05:10,380 good orator, but he did bring out his granddaughter. I mean, 1106 01:05:10,410 --> 01:05:13,260 Troy's great brought as daughter Trump's grant and she gave her 1107 01:05:13,260 --> 01:05:20,310 grandpa's cool type speech was fantastic, brilliant move. JD 1108 01:05:20,310 --> 01:05:27,000 Vance made some as a huge, huge mistake. He forgot that this was 1109 01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:32,040 being televised. He was talking to the audience. He was playing 1110 01:05:32,040 --> 01:05:36,600 on the crowd. He forgot that he was being he was on television. 1111 01:05:36,750 --> 01:05:37,260 That was 1112 01:05:37,290 --> 01:05:41,040 John C Dvorak: a bad and see it as a faux pas unnecessarily. I 1113 01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:45,270 noticed about him was that he needs his elocution could be 1114 01:05:45,270 --> 01:05:51,480 improved. He could have a little deeper voice and yeah, he sounds 1115 01:05:51,480 --> 01:05:57,600 a little thin. But I basically liked it. But he did. You're 1116 01:05:57,600 --> 01:06:00,660 right. And the artists do different kinds of chants like 1117 01:06:00,750 --> 01:06:05,550 Jay Dee's mom's mom was there that was fantastic. The JDS 1118 01:06:05,550 --> 01:06:08,940 mommy they would they would start chanting different things 1119 01:06:08,940 --> 01:06:12,600 they'd make up in the audience and then JD was merging, ma'am, 1120 01:06:12,600 --> 01:06:17,790 ah, grandma and all the rest of it. I actually watched I thought 1121 01:06:17,880 --> 01:06:22,470 I thought he was is no advance. I wasn't thinking they were 1122 01:06:22,470 --> 01:06:26,400 going to pick him. And I thought it was because of the beard. For 1123 01:06:26,400 --> 01:06:28,560 one reason, but everybody's treated like a 1124 01:06:28,560 --> 01:06:31,680 Adam Curry: Mimi likes, Jr. has a beard. I don't understand why 1125 01:06:31,680 --> 01:06:32,730 people say no, I 1126 01:06:32,730 --> 01:06:34,410 John C Dvorak: don't know what I was thinking when I made that 1127 01:06:34,410 --> 01:06:38,820 assertion because Eric has a beard. Did Yeah. He has a beard. 1128 01:06:38,820 --> 01:06:42,390 Yeah. They're all bearded. Yeah. So maybe it's just Trump doing 1129 01:06:42,390 --> 01:06:49,320 is, you know, sleight of hand, but I heard JD Vance. Two days 1130 01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:52,530 earlier on the Hannity radio show. I was driving to the 1131 01:06:52,530 --> 01:06:58,440 store. And Hannity was on with JD Vance. And I had never He is 1132 01:06:58,470 --> 01:07:03,690 quick witted. He's fast. He's sharp. He was holding his more 1133 01:07:03,690 --> 01:07:06,900 than holding his own. He was dominating Sean Hannity on the 1134 01:07:06,900 --> 01:07:10,620 radio show. And he was just I'm listening to him going, oh, boy, 1135 01:07:10,620 --> 01:07:14,460 this is news to me. And when I heard him on the on the radio 1136 01:07:14,460 --> 01:07:18,420 just going, you know, just at the sounding, I would say, 1137 01:07:18,690 --> 01:07:24,690 competing with Kellyanne Conway from talking to Mike. I was 1138 01:07:24,690 --> 01:07:27,390 impressed and so I when I heard I saw I was waiting for this 1139 01:07:27,390 --> 01:07:31,170 speech. And it is EQ could have been maybe it could have been 1140 01:07:31,170 --> 01:07:34,170 improved. But you know, they could have given a little big 1141 01:07:34,170 --> 01:07:37,710 bottom. Running through some some. You mean 1142 01:07:37,710 --> 01:07:40,230 Adam Curry: what I give you I give you a big bottom twice a 1143 01:07:40,230 --> 01:07:41,340 week bottom. Yeah. 1144 01:07:41,370 --> 01:07:45,090 John C Dvorak: So that I now I think, Okay, this guy's probably 1145 01:07:45,090 --> 01:07:50,400 okay. And he is only 39. And he and he does. He's definitely a 1146 01:07:50,400 --> 01:07:54,750 Trumper. And he's got the same basic concepts and ideas even 1147 01:07:54,750 --> 01:07:57,870 though the Cole Wallace just calls him a brown noser. 1148 01:07:57,990 --> 01:08:00,480 Adam Curry: Well, here's, here's JD Vance. I think this is the 1149 01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:04,650 Ohio senatorial race, where you know, he's, his feet are held to 1150 01:08:04,650 --> 01:08:08,910 the fire. You are never Trumper you call him an eight hole. But 1151 01:08:08,910 --> 01:08:12,930 borderline Nazi, which he did. And here's JD Vance. 1152 01:08:12,960 --> 01:08:15,180 Unknown: You've admitted you've changed your mind on Donald 1153 01:08:15,180 --> 01:08:18,270 Trump. But in the past, you've said quote, I'm a Never Trump 1154 01:08:18,270 --> 01:08:21,720 guy, quote, My God, what an idiot and, quote, God wants 1155 01:08:21,720 --> 01:08:24,630 better of us all statements. You have either said or tweeted 1156 01:08:24,630 --> 01:08:27,690 about Donald Trump at some point, the question you have 60 1157 01:08:27,690 --> 01:08:31,140 seconds, why should Trump voters Trump supporters? Vote for you? 1158 01:08:31,800 --> 01:08:32,340 Yeah, look, I 1159 01:08:32,339 --> 01:08:34,499 mean, all of us say stupid things. And I happen to say 1160 01:08:34,499 --> 01:08:38,459 stupid things very publicly. You know, I've been very public 1161 01:08:38,459 --> 01:08:41,129 about the fact that I voted for the president 2020 that I was 1162 01:08:41,129 --> 01:08:45,389 wrong about the president back in 2015 2016. And that he has 1163 01:08:45,389 --> 01:08:47,639 been the greatest president of my lifetime. For the very simple 1164 01:08:47,639 --> 01:08:50,909 reason. There are many, but one very important reason is that he 1165 01:08:50,909 --> 01:08:53,519 revealed the corruption in Washington DC, I mean, who would 1166 01:08:53,519 --> 01:08:56,729 have believed five years ago, six years ago that the FBI would 1167 01:08:56,729 --> 01:08:59,939 actually investigate illegally get an illegal wiretap on a 1168 01:08:59,939 --> 01:09:03,389 sitting US presidential candidate, we saw that Trump 1169 01:09:03,389 --> 01:09:06,209 revealed it. And he revealed in a way that showed us the sticks 1170 01:09:06,209 --> 01:09:07,859 of the fight, which is why I'm running for this office in the 1171 01:09:07,859 --> 01:09:10,649 first place. And one thing I'd point out is that, you know, I 1172 01:09:10,649 --> 01:09:13,739 was I was I was just north of 30 years old, when I said a lot of 1173 01:09:13,739 --> 01:09:16,349 those things. Lots changed in my life. I reengaged. With my 1174 01:09:16,349 --> 01:09:19,139 faith. I got baptized three years ago, I've had three kids 1175 01:09:19,139 --> 01:09:21,809 since then, you know, a lot different. And one of the things 1176 01:09:21,809 --> 01:09:23,729 that's different is that I did change my mind about Donald 1177 01:09:23,729 --> 01:09:26,369 Trump. He was a great president. And I think at the end of the 1178 01:09:26,369 --> 01:09:29,279 day, one of the things this race presents is an opportunity who 1179 01:09:29,279 --> 01:09:31,979 actually agrees with Trump on the core issues of trade of 1180 01:09:31,979 --> 01:09:34,199 immigration who's willing to fight for an America First 1181 01:09:34,199 --> 01:09:36,029 foreign policy? I think it's clearly me. 1182 01:09:37,380 --> 01:09:40,170 Adam Curry: Interesting, got baptized. Yeah, he 1183 01:09:40,170 --> 01:09:44,160 John C Dvorak: also did a well, I know you respond to that. He 1184 01:09:44,160 --> 01:09:48,840 also had another interview. I think maybe it was on Hannity. 1185 01:09:49,050 --> 01:09:53,280 He kind of blamed the media for brainwashing him against Trump. 1186 01:09:53,310 --> 01:09:53,610 Oh, I 1187 01:09:53,610 --> 01:09:54,660 Adam Curry: wish we had that one. I 1188 01:09:54,660 --> 01:09:56,700 John C Dvorak: wouldn't. I wish I had it, too. Wouldn't surprise 1189 01:09:56,700 --> 01:09:59,100 me. That makes nothing but sense. 1190 01:09:59,400 --> 01:10:02,610 Adam Curry: So A couple other people showed up. The most 1191 01:10:02,610 --> 01:10:10,260 interesting one to me was Amber Rose. Amber Rose, who has a huge 1192 01:10:10,260 --> 01:10:16,710 social media following. I think mainly for her boobs. And she's 1193 01:10:16,710 --> 01:10:22,350 black or mixed race. And so she came out and by the way, she's 1194 01:10:22,470 --> 01:10:26,310 most famous for dating Kanye West. That's really what oh, 1195 01:10:26,310 --> 01:10:27,240 just her. Yes, she 1196 01:10:27,240 --> 01:10:29,430 John C Dvorak: did. She was good. The 1197 01:10:29,430 --> 01:10:32,100 Unknown: first person I knew who supported Donald Trump was my 1198 01:10:32,100 --> 01:10:38,580 father. I was shocked. My entire family is racially diverse. And 1199 01:10:38,580 --> 01:10:41,400 I believe the left wing propaganda that Donald Trump was 1200 01:10:41,400 --> 01:10:46,020 a racist. My father said, No, he's not Amber, what are you 1201 01:10:46,020 --> 01:10:51,420 talking about? And when I insisted, he said, prove it. So 1202 01:10:51,420 --> 01:10:55,560 it's approved my father wrong. I did my research and looked into 1203 01:10:55,560 --> 01:11:04,590 all things Donald Trump. People have to do their research. I 1204 01:11:04,590 --> 01:11:08,880 watched all the rallies. And I started meeting so many of you 1205 01:11:08,940 --> 01:11:10,980 his red hat wearing supporters. 1206 01:11:17,610 --> 01:11:21,090 I realized Donald Trump and his supporters don't care if you're 1207 01:11:21,090 --> 01:11:23,880 black, white, gay or straight. It's all love. 1208 01:11:25,830 --> 01:11:26,790 It's all my baby. 1209 01:11:34,110 --> 01:11:37,650 And that's when it hit me. These are my people. This is where I 1210 01:11:37,650 --> 01:11:38,220 belong. 1211 01:11:48,840 --> 01:11:52,650 I let go of my fear of judgment, of being misunderstood of 1212 01:11:52,650 --> 01:11:55,680 getting attacked by the left and I put the red hat on too. 1213 01:11:56,400 --> 01:11:59,220 Adam Curry: So this was this really shook a lot of people up. 1214 01:11:59,490 --> 01:12:02,640 Here's a quick reaction from the daily blast. People have 1215 01:12:02,640 --> 01:12:05,220 Unknown: a right to change their minds. I think flexibility of 1216 01:12:05,220 --> 01:12:11,220 thought is very important. But right now, this moment, to me 1217 01:12:11,220 --> 01:12:15,450 when it comes to Amber Rose is giving the short line. I've 1218 01:12:15,450 --> 01:12:18,090 spoken about the short line a lot because when you're a person 1219 01:12:18,090 --> 01:12:22,500 of color, you're often enticed with more revenue, more 1220 01:12:22,500 --> 01:12:27,270 eyeballs, more of a following if you do the contrary and point of 1221 01:12:27,270 --> 01:12:30,930 view to people like you and from the people who don't because you 1222 01:12:30,930 --> 01:12:35,250 stand out. Exactly. I see. And that's what it was giving to me 1223 01:12:35,280 --> 01:12:36,120 last night. 1224 01:12:37,830 --> 01:12:41,310 Adam Curry: She doesn't really care. Here's Van Jones. He had 1225 01:12:41,310 --> 01:12:42,030 his own take, 1226 01:12:42,060 --> 01:12:46,200 Unknown: but what I would say is would you call them in CO aid 1227 01:12:46,890 --> 01:12:52,380 coalition. I see it as the Republicans are trying to eat 1228 01:12:52,380 --> 01:12:57,030 our cookies. We've had some cookies called the black vote 1229 01:12:57,060 --> 01:13:00,240 and they're trying to take those cookies we've had the labor vote 1230 01:13:00,240 --> 01:13:03,930 they're trying to take those cookies. Cookies man cookies 1231 01:13:05,880 --> 01:13:06,870 John C Dvorak: that's a good one. 1232 01:13:07,290 --> 01:13:10,230 Adam Curry: Take it our cookies. Oh no. 1233 01:13:11,280 --> 01:13:15,090 John C Dvorak: So another person similar to their her speech? I 1234 01:13:15,090 --> 01:13:18,300 thought that was really got the audience were devastated Jewish 1235 01:13:18,300 --> 01:13:22,590 student from Harvard. Oh, last night Oh, Mastodon 1236 01:13:22,590 --> 01:13:25,590 Adam Curry: went crazy. Dog these bringing into you to the 1237 01:13:25,590 --> 01:13:30,900 bringing into uterus. Literally, literally, literally.

Yeah. Okay. And it's a 1305 01:17:04,350 --> 01:17:09,600 major major hatred between the two schools. Hey, another 1306 01:17:09,600 --> 01:17:15,120 Adam Curry: thing I do like he owns over $100,000 in Bitcoin go 1307 01:17:15,120 --> 01:17:15,660 JD 1308 01:17:15,690 --> 01:17:18,330 John C Dvorak: you'd like that go Jay dad and being baptized 1309 01:17:18,330 --> 01:17:20,340 would be your your two things.

He 1312 01:17:27,450 --> 01:17:31,320 said, I'm going in a completely different direction. Besides 1313 01:17:31,320 --> 01:17:33,540 Hulk Hogan showing up tonight, which would be awesome. 1314 01:17:33,750 --> 01:17:35,700 John C Dvorak: It couldn't be by the way Trump could be Miss 1315 01:17:35,700 --> 01:17:39,780 directing. He does that constantly could be. In fact, in 1316 01:17:39,780 --> 01:17:43,560 fact, I'd never realized it until the the Trump 1317 01:17:44,010 --> 01:17:47,700 granddaughter came up to 17 year old and gave that little speech 1318 01:17:47,850 --> 01:17:50,940 and talked about him trying to psych her out on the golf 1319 01:17:50,940 --> 01:17:55,710 course.

Donald Trump 1352 01:19:44,070 --> 01:19:47,490 has my strong endorsement period. 1353 01:19:48,840 --> 01:19:52,680 Tonight, Ohio Senator JD Vance will accept his party's vice 1354 01:19:52,680 --> 01:19:54,690 presidential nomination. You might be 1355 01:19:54,690 --> 01:19:57,870 aware of Vance's roots in Appalachia, thanks to his best 1356 01:19:57,870 --> 01:20:01,980 selling memoir, Hillbilly Elegy is less known or his roots in 1357 01:20:01,980 --> 01:20:05,940 the world of Silicon Valley and venture capital. As NPR is Bobby 1358 01:20:05,970 --> 01:20:09,270 Allen reports Vance has close ties to tech billionaires could 1359 01:20:09,270 --> 01:20:12,180 supercharge Trump's reelection bid supercharge shortly 1360 01:20:12,180 --> 01:20:16,050 after JD Vance published his memoir Hillbilly Elegy in 2016. 1361 01:20:16,080 --> 01:20:19,830 Another career began to rise in San Francisco. He was hired to 1362 01:20:19,830 --> 01:20:22,740 work in a venture capital firm run by Peter Thiel, the co 1363 01:20:22,740 --> 01:20:25,470 founder of PayPal, who is one of the most powerful figures in 1364 01:20:25,470 --> 01:20:28,950 Silicon Valley. Here's writer Max chavkin, who wrote a book on 1365 01:20:28,950 --> 01:20:30,480 teal that mentions Vance 1366 01:20:30,600 --> 01:20:33,930 Vance worked for teal for a relatively short amount of time, 1367 01:20:33,930 --> 01:20:37,080 less than two years and then moved to Ohio, where he 1368 01:20:37,110 --> 01:20:40,260 continued to invest but clearly was starting to, you know, think 1369 01:20:40,260 --> 01:20:42,090 about his political future. 1370 01:20:42,150 --> 01:20:45,240 But before his political life even started he launched his own 1371 01:20:45,240 --> 01:20:48,690 VC fund with backing from Thiel and other tech heavy hitters 1372 01:20:48,690 --> 01:20:51,930 like investor Marc Andreessen. In other words, he was compiling 1373 01:20:51,930 --> 01:20:55,230 a deep pocketed tech roster that came in handy when he ran for 1374 01:20:55,230 --> 01:20:59,250 Senate in Ohio and one with financial help from Thiel and 1375 01:20:59,250 --> 01:21:02,940 other tech investors.

But this is where the 1393 01:21:56,370 --> 01:22:00,690 NPR says that they that Trump named his dick. 1394 01:22:01,080 --> 01:22:03,930 Unknown: So Trump named Vance is pick on Monday, you have been 1395 01:22:03,930 --> 01:22:06,330 speaking to Republicans in Milwaukee, how's he being 1396 01:22:06,330 --> 01:22:06,810 received? 1397 01:22:07,320 --> 01:22:08,190 Adam Curry: Let me hear that again. 1398 01:22:08,220 --> 01:22:10,980 Unknown: So Trump named Vance's pick on Monday, you have been 1399 01:22:10,980 --> 01:22:13,410 speaking to Republicans in Milwaukee, how's he been? 1400 01:22:13,860 --> 01:22:16,920 Adam Curry: You know, that's what you want to hear.

It's 1408 01:22:37,770 --> 01:22:39,480 Unknown: tempting to paint us with a broad brush and say all 1409 01:22:39,480 --> 01:22:42,330 of Silicon Valley is getting behind the former president. But 1410 01:22:42,330 --> 01:22:46,710 what's actually happening is that Silicon Valley's right wing 1411 01:22:46,740 --> 01:22:50,160 has been activated and persuaded to open their pockets. 1412 01:22:50,250 --> 01:22:53,220 A new tech align political action committee called America 1413 01:22:53,220 --> 01:22:56,310 PAC was unveiled just after Trump announced Vance as his 1414 01:22:56,310 --> 01:22:59,310 running mate. Elon Musk is poised to flood the group with 1415 01:22:59,310 --> 01:23:02,160 cash venture capitalists Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz, 1416 01:23:02,160 --> 01:23:05,610 also planned to contribute on the duo's podcast on Tuesday, 1417 01:23:05,640 --> 01:23:09,300 Horowitz said he wished they didn't have to pick aside but 1418 01:23:09,390 --> 01:23:14,190 the future of our business, the future of technology, new 1419 01:23:14,190 --> 01:23:17,100 technology and the future of America's literally at stake. 1420 01:23:17,250 --> 01:23:20,100 Many big players in Silicon Valley traditionally sat on the 1421 01:23:20,100 --> 01:23:22,890 sidelines for presidential elections or voted for 1422 01:23:22,890 --> 01:23:26,370 Democrats. But now that has changed. Samuel Hammond is an 1423 01:23:26,370 --> 01:23:28,800 economist at the right leaning Think Tank foundation for 1424 01:23:28,800 --> 01:23:31,590 American innovation. He says many of the new financial 1425 01:23:31,590 --> 01:23:34,950 backers of Trump and Vance are placing big bets on two 1426 01:23:34,950 --> 01:23:37,860 industries artificial intelligence and crypto 1427 01:23:39,690 --> 01:23:43,320 pays off depends entirely on the policy of the US government. 1428 01:23:43,500 --> 01:23:44,220 chavkin, 1429 01:23:44,250 --> 01:23:46,680 the book author who is also a reporter at Bloomberg 1430 01:23:46,680 --> 01:23:50,070 Businessweek says there is a fear that AI policy and the 1431 01:23:50,070 --> 01:23:52,350 Biden White House will be too heavy handed. 1432 01:23:52,470 --> 01:23:55,770 They perceived, you know, to some extent, I think correctly, 1433 01:23:55,890 --> 01:24:00,750 that Joe Biden less so than pretty much any president that 1434 01:24:00,750 --> 01:24:04,650 they have encountered in their lifetimes, is not as willing to 1435 01:24:04,650 --> 01:24:05,580 accommodate them 1436 01:24:05,640 --> 01:24:08,640 newly added to the Republican Party platform just in time for 1437 01:24:08,640 --> 01:24:12,570 the RNC, repealing Biden's AI executive order that attempts to 1438 01:24:12,570 --> 01:24:15,810 provide some modicum of AI oversight. Oh, I 1439 01:24:15,810 --> 01:24:17,820 Adam Curry: can't Well, we'll talk about AI in a moment 1440 01:24:17,820 --> 01:24:18,330 because, 1441 01:24:18,390 --> 01:24:21,510 John C Dvorak: uh, you know, Silicon Valley's mostly 1442 01:24:21,510 --> 01:24:22,710 Democrats know 1443 01:24:22,710 --> 01:24:26,250 Adam Curry: what not to hold on a second before Obama. They were 1444 01:24:26,250 --> 01:24:30,510 all reading Ayan Rand and they were all wearing Rolexes and 1445 01:24:30,510 --> 01:24:31,020 then they 1446 01:24:31,350 --> 01:24:33,390 John C Dvorak: came along and they all became Democrats and 1447 01:24:33,390 --> 01:24:35,850 they became staunch Democrats that John Doe is always a 1448 01:24:35,850 --> 01:24:36,540 Democrat. 1449 01:24:36,720 --> 01:24:38,970 Adam Curry: Yeah, he doesn't count. He doesn't count. Well, 1450 01:24:38,970 --> 01:24:40,170 he's VC 1451 01:24:40,170 --> 01:24:41,520 John C Dvorak: you know, and he's getting most of those 1452 01:24:41,520 --> 01:24:44,640 Kleiner guys are Democrats, persons a Democrat, they're all 1453 01:24:44,640 --> 01:24:45,720 Democrats, but they 1454 01:24:45,720 --> 01:24:48,510 Adam Curry: were all reading iron Rand and talking all big 1455 01:24:48,930 --> 01:24:52,950 Rolexes and fast cars were still they 1456 01:24:52,950 --> 01:24:54,720 John C Dvorak: were still supporting the Democratic 1457 01:24:54,720 --> 01:25:01,080 candidates and they all were jobs had me to upset his house 1458 01:25:01,080 --> 01:25:05,160 yeah, Tim Cook had big, you know, money gathering operations 1459 01:25:05,160 --> 01:25:05,250 and 1460 01:25:06,150 --> 01:25:06,840 Adam Curry: other things that 1461 01:25:08,670 --> 01:25:11,400 John C Dvorak: Zuckerberg put a bunch of 400 million bucks or 1462 01:25:11,400 --> 01:25:13,950 some ridiculous amount of money into the in Wisconsin. 1463 01:25:16,049 --> 01:25:18,659 Adam Curry: We just put it this way. Silicon Valley are 1464 01:25:18,659 --> 01:25:22,349 globalists, they're not bright or left really the globalist 1465 01:25:22,349 --> 01:25:24,269 whoever has the best globalist 1466 01:25:26,550 --> 01:25:27,270 Unknown: path 1467 01:25:27,300 --> 01:25:31,440 Adam Curry: they'll take. That's what they can argue about that. 1468 01:25:31,440 --> 01:25:33,630 No, absolutely true. That's that's what 1469 01:25:33,630 --> 01:25:36,510 John C Dvorak: they really are. They tend to be Democrats in 1470 01:25:36,510 --> 01:25:38,250 terms of where they give their money. I mean, in 1471 01:25:38,250 --> 01:25:39,990 Adam Curry: fact, if we just really think about it, the 1472 01:25:39,990 --> 01:25:43,380 Republicans, Republican Party, the Democrats, it just you get 1473 01:25:43,380 --> 01:25:46,650 lower taxes. And that's about the only thing so far until 1474 01:25:46,650 --> 01:25:49,830 Trump came along and he stopped wars, which is a big problem. So 1475 01:25:49,830 --> 01:25:52,890 he's gonna have to deal with with that without stopping war 1476 01:25:52,890 --> 01:25:53,430 business, he's 1477 01:25:53,430 --> 01:25:56,520 John C Dvorak: gonna have to still stopping Wars is not good 1478 01:25:56,520 --> 01:25:57,870 for business. Well, unless 1479 01:25:57,870 --> 01:26:00,720 Adam Curry: you ramp up China, which he's always been, he's 1480 01:26:00,720 --> 01:26:04,050 always been an anti China guy. And, you know, we need big 1481 01:26:04,050 --> 01:26:08,730 beautiful ships subs that go so deep deeper than others. Now 1482 01:26:09,960 --> 01:26:14,820 that I'm thinking tonight, and this really hit me because I saw 1483 01:26:14,850 --> 01:26:19,770 Tucker did a speech. Why are you laughing? Why you're laughing? 1484 01:26:20,610 --> 01:26:23,100 John C Dvorak: Because Tucker has been showing up everywhere. 1485 01:26:23,130 --> 01:26:23,910 Exactly. He 1486 01:26:23,910 --> 01:26:27,240 Adam Curry: shows up the first night. He's right there. 1487 01:26:27,240 --> 01:26:29,310 John C Dvorak: And he was right there. He was up into in that 1488 01:26:29,310 --> 01:26:31,470 booth where Trump was a VIP 1489 01:26:31,470 --> 01:26:37,650 Adam Curry: box. Yeah. So so why is Tucker there? Why I think 1490 01:26:37,650 --> 01:26:41,790 Tucker, then he's been hanging out with Trump a lot. Now he 1491 01:26:41,790 --> 01:26:45,930 goes to the UFC fights, there's Tucker. You know, Tucker is 1492 01:26:45,930 --> 01:26:51,900 around Trump a lot in sightless call it social settings. So I 1493 01:26:51,900 --> 01:26:53,190 think he has his ear. 1494 01:26:56,310 --> 01:27:01,260 John C Dvorak: Yeah. I was looking at the damage. And I cut 1495 01:27:01,260 --> 01:27:01,590 down the 1496 01:27:01,590 --> 01:27:08,280 Adam Curry: background and he drops. So so just taking him at 1497 01:27:08,280 --> 01:27:12,570 his word, which is usually a mistake, and maybe even some art 1498 01:27:12,570 --> 01:27:17,970 of the of war. Perhaps Trump is going to change the battlefield 1499 01:27:17,970 --> 01:27:21,510 tonight. He has said that he doesn't want to go into this 1500 01:27:21,510 --> 01:27:24,870 whole mode about, you know, whatever he was going to do is 1501 01:27:24,870 --> 01:27:27,720 it was he was, he was going to burn everything down who's going 1502 01:27:27,720 --> 01:27:32,100 to, you know, just slash and burn the Democrats. He says he's 1503 01:27:32,100 --> 01:27:39,180 going to change it all up. So just at face value with Vance, 1504 01:27:39,540 --> 01:27:43,860 even Mike Johnson, with his close call with what everyone is 1505 01:27:43,860 --> 01:27:45,300 saying at this convention, 1506 01:27:46,050 --> 01:27:48,720 Unknown: Tucker, again, and again, and again, throughout 1507 01:27:48,720 --> 01:27:51,300 history, there are forces within every society because they 1508 01:27:51,300 --> 01:27:54,900 reside in the human heart, that are against people, they are 1509 01:27:54,900 --> 01:27:57,480 dedicated to the destruction of people and the civilizations 1510 01:27:57,480 --> 01:28:03,990 that people built. And if you pay any attention at all, to 1511 01:28:04,140 --> 01:28:07,140 history, you will recognize it. It's like wait a second, people 1512 01:28:07,140 --> 01:28:10,050 are saying exactly the same things, the climate people, the 1513 01:28:10,050 --> 01:28:12,990 AI people, the transhumanist people, the Biden administration 1514 01:28:12,990 --> 01:28:15,840 are seeing exactly the same kinds of things, the same themes 1515 01:28:16,500 --> 01:28:19,080 that every other movement have this kind of they had a million 1516 01:28:19,080 --> 01:28:20,910 different names for them. Throughout history, we're also 1517 01:28:20,910 --> 01:28:24,630 saying, just the first thing, I noticed, the second thing I 1518 01:28:24,630 --> 01:28:27,090 noticed is what do all of these movements for the past 2000 1519 01:28:27,090 --> 01:28:30,300 years have in common? Who do they hate most? As you can tell, 1520 01:28:30,510 --> 01:28:35,250 by what I said about JD Vance, I think you'll learn very much by 1521 01:28:35,280 --> 01:28:40,290 taking a look at who's mad at whom and about what. So if 1522 01:28:40,290 --> 01:28:42,960 there's something that threatens you pay close attention to what 1523 01:28:42,960 --> 01:28:46,230 makes them angriest. But certainly true in my business, 1524 01:28:46,230 --> 01:28:48,780 which is the speech business. What are they trying to get you 1525 01:28:48,780 --> 01:28:50,790 not to say? What are they punishing you for saying those 1526 01:28:50,790 --> 01:28:53,670 are likely to be the truest things, not the false things. 1527 01:28:53,670 --> 01:28:56,250 It's not misinformation, it's not disinformation, as truth. 1528 01:28:56,250 --> 01:28:59,670 That's why you hate it. Obviously. It's obvious now took 1529 01:28:59,670 --> 01:29:03,600 me about 10 years to figure this out. I'm not a super genius. But 1530 01:29:03,600 --> 01:29:07,620 What group do they dislike most? What group are they absolutely 1531 01:29:07,620 --> 01:29:11,550 terrified of, and hoping to eliminate what's Christians? 1532 01:29:11,880 --> 01:29:15,990 That's who it is, as Christians. And I'm saying this is not a 1533 01:29:15,990 --> 01:29:19,440 particularly fervent, lifelong Christian, I am a Christian. But 1534 01:29:19,440 --> 01:29:22,680 I haven't spent my life you know, surrounded by plumes of 1535 01:29:22,680 --> 01:29:25,380 incense deep and prayers went away from the newsroom saying 1536 01:29:25,380 --> 01:29:30,720 the F word. I mean, I'm not sort of a pious person at all. But I 1537 01:29:30,720 --> 01:29:34,350 try to be a notice or since I'm paid to do that. And the group 1538 01:29:34,350 --> 01:29:36,900 that makes them angry as triggers that most I guess we 1539 01:29:36,900 --> 01:29:41,370 would say now is Christians, Christian nationals and people 1540 01:29:41,370 --> 01:29:44,970 pray outside abortion clinics, people celebrate Easter and not 1541 01:29:44,970 --> 01:29:49,830 trans visibility day. These are the real enemies. But that's 1542 01:29:49,830 --> 01:29:57,270 been true in every revolution in the past 2000 years. It 1543 01:29:57,270 --> 01:29:59,520 Adam Curry: was a really it was an interesting speech, the 1544 01:29:59,520 --> 01:30:03,930 Tucker game If, and so I'm thinking If Trump were to move 1545 01:30:03,930 --> 01:30:07,530 this from lawfare to spiritual warfare, he has a whole 1546 01:30:07,530 --> 01:30:10,740 different game going on. And I'm just saying this from an 1547 01:30:10,770 --> 01:30:14,010 analytical point of view because here's the stories that are 1548 01:30:14,010 --> 01:30:17,880 popping up. New York Times this is this is after Saturday, 1549 01:30:17,880 --> 01:30:21,420 Trump's devotees see God's protection. Christian 1550 01:30:21,420 --> 01:30:27,030 nationalism is emerging as an overt threat to democracy. Los 1551 01:30:27,030 --> 01:30:30,300 Angeles Times, pro Trump Christian extremists use 1552 01:30:30,300 --> 01:30:35,070 scripture to justify violent goals Washington Post, The 1553 01:30:35,070 --> 01:30:38,670 Defiant Trump image that made critics join the cult I mean, 1554 01:30:38,670 --> 01:30:41,640 it's, it's everywhere. Yeah, 1555 01:30:41,670 --> 01:30:44,610 John C Dvorak: well, this is the atheists getting a little 1556 01:30:46,230 --> 01:30:51,030 Adam Curry: upset well, on cue, someone who I don't really even 1557 01:30:51,030 --> 01:30:54,630 like that much I try to avoid playing any clips is Josh 1558 01:30:54,630 --> 01:30:57,600 Hawley. Now isn't Josh Hawley also a tech guy? 1559 01:30:59,970 --> 01:31:02,850 John C Dvorak: Who I think that I know of I mean, Josh Holly's 1560 01:31:02,880 --> 01:31:06,090 name has come up in the conversation quite a bit. Well, 1561 01:31:06,090 --> 01:31:08,220 here's a look him up while you are here. 1562 01:31:08,250 --> 01:31:10,200 Adam Curry: Here's a clip that that popped 1563 01:31:10,200 --> 01:31:12,600 Unknown: up. Faith leaders are speaking out on what they say 1564 01:31:12,600 --> 01:31:16,110 are the dangers of Christian nationalism, and its impact on 1565 01:31:16,110 --> 01:31:17,730 our democracy and government. This 1566 01:31:17,730 --> 01:31:20,910 is in response to Senator Josh Holly's words advocating for 1567 01:31:20,910 --> 01:31:23,970 Christian nationalism a week ago, or David M. allottee. is 1568 01:31:23,970 --> 01:31:26,670 breaking down the conversation for us in studio tonight. So 1569 01:31:26,670 --> 01:31:29,370 these religious leaders today tell me their biggest fear is 1570 01:31:29,370 --> 01:31:33,210 violence in the aftermath of Senator Holly's speech where he 1571 01:31:33,210 --> 01:31:36,180 advocates for Christian nationalism, but insists he is 1572 01:31:36,180 --> 01:31:38,850 for religious tolerance. I'm told by the panel of faith 1573 01:31:38,850 --> 01:31:42,210 leaders today the issue with professing advocacy of Christian 1574 01:31:42,210 --> 01:31:45,540 nationalism is that the stance nice religious freedom to Jews, 1575 01:31:45,540 --> 01:31:49,680 Muslims, LGBTQ Christians, and people of color. And 1576 01:31:50,790 --> 01:31:53,370 some will say that I'm advocating Christian 1577 01:31:53,370 --> 01:31:55,920 nationalism. And so I do that 1578 01:31:55,920 --> 01:31:59,490 extra tough last Monday speech by Senator Josh Hawley continues 1579 01:31:59,490 --> 01:32:02,070 to make waves in our country and pulled together religious 1580 01:32:02,070 --> 01:32:05,280 leaders in Missouri this Monday, condemning the senior senators 1581 01:32:05,280 --> 01:32:06,180 words Christian 1582 01:32:06,180 --> 01:32:09,750 nationalism is not compatible with religious tolerance or 1583 01:32:09,750 --> 01:32:12,570 religious freedom, because it's saying we will have a Christian 1584 01:32:12,570 --> 01:32:16,080 nation sorry, Muslim, sorry, Jews, sorry, atheists, this 1585 01:32:16,080 --> 01:32:19,620 nation isn't for you the same way it's for others at best will 1586 01:32:19,620 --> 01:32:23,010 tolerate you being here. But you don't get the same level of 1587 01:32:23,010 --> 01:32:26,730 rights as others. Christianity is 2 billion people across the 1588 01:32:26,730 --> 01:32:29,580 world. It's a very diverse religion. So when they talk 1589 01:32:29,580 --> 01:32:33,180 about a Christian nation, they really mean a very specific form 1590 01:32:33,180 --> 01:32:37,470 of mostly white that mostly evangelical conservatives, 1591 01:32:37,500 --> 01:32:41,640 straight patriarchal Christianity, that often becomes 1592 01:32:41,640 --> 01:32:42,600 white Christian nationalism. 1593 01:32:42,630 --> 01:32:45,780 Last week, Senator Hawley said his focus is keeping the left 1594 01:32:45,810 --> 01:32:48,570 from destroying the First Amendment and religious liberty 1595 01:32:48,600 --> 01:32:50,130 our country is built on. It's a 1596 01:32:50,130 --> 01:32:53,820 fact of history not open to debate. It's a fact of history, 1597 01:32:54,150 --> 01:32:56,640 that we were founded by Christian believers and that our 1598 01:32:56,640 --> 01:32:59,610 fundamental ideals, including those in the Constitution, the 1599 01:32:59,610 --> 01:33:02,340 Declaration of Independence, and the Bill of Rights all come to 1600 01:33:02,340 --> 01:33:05,430 us from the Christian tradition. That's just a fact. And I think 1601 01:33:05,430 --> 01:33:06,150 it's worth preserving. 1602 01:33:07,050 --> 01:33:10,680 Adam Curry: So that man has a lot of fear, 1603 01:33:10,680 --> 01:33:13,170 John C Dvorak: but no, no tech connection. And I thought, why 1604 01:33:13,170 --> 01:33:15,540 don't I think that what is the opposite? What what is he? 1605 01:33:15,600 --> 01:33:16,560 Adam Curry: Where does he come from? 1606 01:33:17,430 --> 01:33:23,760 John C Dvorak: Well, he actually graduated from Stanford. And he, 1607 01:33:24,240 --> 01:33:27,990 I mean, he lives in Missouri, obviously. And he went up and 1608 01:33:27,990 --> 01:33:31,800 he's another Yalie. I could just like, oh, like Vance, like 1609 01:33:31,800 --> 01:33:36,750 advance and you guys run the country, and what was what 1610 01:33:36,750 --> 01:33:37,350 they're up to? 1611 01:33:37,380 --> 01:33:39,360 Adam Curry: So what is interesting is there's that you 1612 01:33:39,360 --> 01:33:39,570 said, 1613 01:33:39,570 --> 01:33:42,810 John C Dvorak: Holly's been on this theocratic thing forever. I 1614 01:33:42,810 --> 01:33:44,550 didn't know nothing new with him. 1615 01:33:44,580 --> 01:33:48,060 Adam Curry: I didn't know that. But he but he, he said, I'm a 1616 01:33:48,060 --> 01:33:50,940 Christian nationalist, and everyone freaks out about it. 1617 01:33:51,300 --> 01:33:53,670 And then you know, so there's, oh, it's and then you get all 1618 01:33:53,670 --> 01:33:57,300 these so what do we really have? We have the sparkle clergy which 1619 01:33:57,300 --> 01:34:02,460 is you know, God is trans. Then we have the extreme right nut 1620 01:34:02,460 --> 01:34:06,450 jobs. You know, God Hates Fags, you know, go in a storm storm 1621 01:34:06,450 --> 01:34:09,960 abortion clinics? No, I mean, there's all kinds of crazy 1622 01:34:09,960 --> 01:34:13,350 things going on. And then you have the, what they call like 1623 01:34:13,350 --> 01:34:17,280 the remnant church who believes in the history of America being 1624 01:34:18,240 --> 01:34:22,620 you know, the Pilgrims came literally after, strengthen 1625 01:34:22,620 --> 01:34:26,160 their faith in Leiden of all places, and Amsterdam. And you 1626 01:34:26,160 --> 01:34:30,240 know, all of the first presidents, the con everything 1627 01:34:30,240 --> 01:34:34,320 is all based upon upon the word of God. So Holly's actual 1628 01:34:34,320 --> 01:34:38,040 message is something that I think Trump could actually use. 1629 01:34:38,070 --> 01:34:40,710 Unknown: The left's primary purpose is to attack our 1630 01:34:40,710 --> 01:34:44,220 spiritual unity our common loves. They want to destroy the 1631 01:34:44,220 --> 01:34:48,000 affections that link us one to another, and substitute a set of 1632 01:34:48,000 --> 01:34:51,360 all together different ideals. The left preaches its own 1633 01:34:51,360 --> 01:34:55,650 gospel, a creed of intersectionality of deliverance 1634 01:34:55,650 --> 01:34:59,490 from tradition, from family from biological sex, and of course 1635 01:34:59,490 --> 01:35:03,330 from God They regard the faith of our fathers as a fetter to be 1636 01:35:03,330 --> 01:35:06,900 broken. they deem our common moral inheritance is cause for 1637 01:35:06,900 --> 01:35:11,070 repentance. Instead of Christmas they want pride month instead of 1638 01:35:11,070 --> 01:35:14,970 prayer in schools they venerate the trans flag. Diversity, 1639 01:35:15,270 --> 01:35:18,540 Equity and Inclusion are their watchwords their new Holy 1640 01:35:18,540 --> 01:35:23,760 Trinity. And they expect their preachment to be obeyed. They 1641 01:35:23,760 --> 01:35:28,170 may speak of tolerance, but they practice fundamentalism. Those 1642 01:35:28,170 --> 01:35:32,070 who resist are called deplorable. Those who questioned 1643 01:35:32,100 --> 01:35:34,890 are labeled threats to democracy. And this is why 1644 01:35:34,890 --> 01:35:37,620 progressives, I submit to you have such a little patience 1645 01:35:37,620 --> 01:35:42,000 these days for working people. They're too attached to the old 1646 01:35:42,000 --> 01:35:48,360 ways to the old faith of God and family, home and nation. Now, 1647 01:35:48,360 --> 01:35:51,990 this is the left's true replacement theory, their true 1648 01:35:51,990 --> 01:35:56,460 replacement agenda to replace the Christian ideals on which 1649 01:35:56,460 --> 01:36:00,240 this nation was founded, and to silence those Americans who dare 1650 01:36:00,240 --> 01:36:01,920 still stand by them. Boom. 1651 01:36:02,130 --> 01:36:04,080 Adam Curry: That's That's what Trump should do tonight. 1652 01:36:04,590 --> 01:36:06,570 John C Dvorak: I don't think Trump's going to do that. I 1653 01:36:06,570 --> 01:36:09,030 don't think that's what he should do. I think he's just 1654 01:36:09,030 --> 01:36:12,030 falling into a trap. If he does, I think he's going to be mostly 1655 01:36:12,030 --> 01:36:16,320 about family in the working class. All right. That's why he 1656 01:36:16,320 --> 01:36:17,760 brought on I think the most of 1657 01:36:18,870 --> 01:36:21,510 Adam Curry: the head of the Teamsters team said, well, they 1658 01:36:21,510 --> 01:36:24,390 want they want labor on their side, they want their cookies. 1659 01:36:25,140 --> 01:36:25,260 They 1660 01:36:25,260 --> 01:36:28,620 John C Dvorak: want to steal the cookies. From the Democrats and 1661 01:36:28,890 --> 01:36:32,370 cookies. They already had, they got plenty of religious stuff 1662 01:36:32,370 --> 01:36:36,270 going on. They don't need to Trump doesn't need to pile on 1663 01:36:37,950 --> 01:36:39,930 that he's not going to mention it. But I think it's going to be 1664 01:36:40,080 --> 01:36:43,440 about family is going to be about unity. And it's going to 1665 01:36:43,440 --> 01:36:46,230 be about and he's going to slip a bunch of labor stuff in there 1666 01:36:46,230 --> 01:36:50,280 to try to get the working class, the middle class. And blacks and 1667 01:36:50,280 --> 01:36:53,490 Hispanics. He's going to do a lot of crossover stuff to bring 1668 01:36:53,490 --> 01:36:57,990 them in because he knows that there they can get a lot of 1669 01:36:57,990 --> 01:37:02,520 black votes, mostly black men. And black women still reject 1670 01:37:02,520 --> 01:37:02,700 him. 1671 01:37:02,700 --> 01:37:05,010 Adam Curry: Keep your eye on Hulk Hogan tonight to see what 1672 01:37:05,010 --> 01:37:05,490 he said he's 1673 01:37:05,490 --> 01:37:07,800 John C Dvorak: gonna have Hogan. Yeah. How to yeah, don't get 1674 01:37:07,800 --> 01:37:09,660 what that group that's just that's kind of 1675 01:37:09,690 --> 01:37:13,290 Adam Curry: now you watch you. I'm going to disagree with you 1676 01:37:13,290 --> 01:37:13,920 on this. But 1677 01:37:14,250 --> 01:37:16,920 John C Dvorak: yeah, we disagree. You can disagree. I 1678 01:37:16,920 --> 01:37:19,260 don't think he's going to push that. It's not a good idea. 1679 01:37:19,290 --> 01:37:22,440 Adam Curry: I think it's a great idea that obviously you would 1680 01:37:22,440 --> 01:37:27,810 Yes, i You're a religious No, I'm a Jesus freak, as though. 1681 01:37:29,550 --> 01:37:30,450 That's what I am. 1682 01:37:31,680 --> 01:37:33,240 John C Dvorak: Is religious free? 1683 01:37:33,240 --> 01:37:36,270 Adam Curry: No, no, no, I'm not. I'm a Jesus freak, not a 1684 01:37:36,270 --> 01:37:39,690 religious freak. Because different things anyway, just to 1685 01:37:39,690 --> 01:37:43,320 move to the AI portion. Because that's very interesting that 1686 01:37:43,320 --> 01:37:47,250 these tech bros, as Kara Swisher would call them, the tech bros. 1687 01:37:47,430 --> 01:37:51,090 Oh, yeah, they want to AI regulation, you know, we got to 1688 01:37:51,090 --> 01:37:54,420 change that. We got to get rid of it. You can't hamper our 1689 01:37:54,450 --> 01:37:56,280 fantastic investment. Yeah, 1690 01:37:56,280 --> 01:37:59,280 John C Dvorak: let it the way I see it. Let that aI think 1691 01:37:59,280 --> 01:38:02,010 collapse on its own. Wait, why should the government get 1692 01:38:02,010 --> 01:38:02,610 involved? 1693 01:38:02,640 --> 01:38:07,380 Adam Curry: Here's the Goldman Sachs exchanges podcast about AI 1694 01:38:07,380 --> 01:38:08,610 and the investments, 1695 01:38:08,640 --> 01:38:12,120 Unknown: the biggest challenge is that over the next several 1696 01:38:12,120 --> 01:38:15,390 years alone, we're going to spend over a trillion dollars 1697 01:38:15,390 --> 01:38:18,450 developing AI, you know, around the infrastructure, whether it's 1698 01:38:18,690 --> 01:38:20,820 datacenter infrastructure, whether it's utilities, 1699 01:38:20,820 --> 01:38:24,030 infrastructure, whether it's the applications, a trillion 1700 01:38:24,030 --> 01:38:27,630 dollars, and that is the issue, in my mind, what trillion dollar 1701 01:38:27,630 --> 01:38:31,890 problem is AI going to solve? This is different from every 1702 01:38:31,890 --> 01:38:34,470 other technology transition that I've been a part of over the 1703 01:38:34,470 --> 01:38:37,500 last 30 years that I've closely followed the technology 1704 01:38:37,500 --> 01:38:40,890 industry, historically, we've always had a very cheap 1705 01:38:40,890 --> 01:38:44,640 solution, replacing a very expensive solution. Here, you 1706 01:38:44,640 --> 01:38:48,210 have a very expensive solution that's meant to replace low cost 1707 01:38:48,210 --> 01:38:51,330 labor. And that doesn't even make any sense from the jump. 1708 01:38:51,390 --> 01:38:54,450 Right? And that's my biggest concern on AI at this point. 1709 01:38:54,810 --> 01:38:55,170 But 1710 01:38:55,200 --> 01:39:00,600 isn't technology always expensive? In its nascent stage, 1711 01:39:00,630 --> 01:39:04,530 and then you improve, you evolve, you iterate and the cost 1712 01:39:04,530 --> 01:39:07,110 comes down? Dramatically? Yeah, 1713 01:39:07,140 --> 01:39:10,290 not always. Let's take E commerce and the internet as the 1714 01:39:10,290 --> 01:39:14,100 best example of this from the get go, right? You had a very 1715 01:39:14,130 --> 01:39:17,460 cheap technology ecommerce, replacing a very expensive brick 1716 01:39:17,460 --> 01:39:20,940 and mortar retail solution. Amazon was able to sell books 1717 01:39:20,940 --> 01:39:23,220 from the first day that they started selling books on the 1718 01:39:23,220 --> 01:39:26,610 internet, because it was cheaper to sell over the internet than 1719 01:39:26,610 --> 01:39:30,510 it was for Barnes and Noble to have retail stores. That was 1720 01:39:30,510 --> 01:39:33,630 cheaper from the beginning like so there's a real life example 1721 01:39:33,810 --> 01:39:36,600 of arguably the most important technology development of our 1722 01:39:36,600 --> 01:39:39,900 generation e commerce that was cheaper from day one. Fast 1723 01:39:39,900 --> 01:39:42,930 forward 30 years, right. And it's still cheaper. We still 1724 01:39:42,930 --> 01:39:45,300 have a cheaper solution replacing a more expensive 1725 01:39:45,300 --> 01:39:48,570 solution. Take, you know, Uber replacing limousine services, 1726 01:39:48,570 --> 01:39:52,350 right. So you started cheaper and 30 years later, the internet 1727 01:39:52,350 --> 01:39:55,920 is still enabling things to be cheaper than what the incumbent 1728 01:39:55,920 --> 01:39:58,830 solution is. There's nothing about AI that's cheap today, 1729 01:39:58,830 --> 01:40:02,100 right and your star Going from a very high cost base. So that 1730 01:40:02,100 --> 01:40:05,100 part I think there's a lot of revisionist history on about how 1731 01:40:05,100 --> 01:40:08,370 things always start expensive and get cheaper. Nobody started 1732 01:40:08,370 --> 01:40:09,420 with a trillion dollars. 1733 01:40:11,130 --> 01:40:12,780 John C Dvorak: You know, he could have been pushed back 1734 01:40:12,780 --> 01:40:16,950 further. When she did. It's never been more expensive 1735 01:40:16,950 --> 01:40:20,610 navigating now, I mean, when the when the personal computer first 1736 01:40:20,610 --> 01:40:22,680 came out those things to put them together. So there's 1737 01:40:22,680 --> 01:40:27,420 actually useful it cost about $3,500 for a machine. As opposed 1738 01:40:27,420 --> 01:40:30,720 to today, you need a Beelink, which has more power with a 1739 01:40:30,720 --> 01:40:36,750 great, great hard drive. Well, that's your issue. Yeah. So get 1740 01:40:36,900 --> 01:40:41,670 us can condition to power, that would be my advice. Anyway. The 1741 01:40:42,510 --> 01:40:46,290 point is, is that it's always been when that's when the $3,500 1742 01:40:46,320 --> 01:40:49,980 machine came out, or even you could even spend more than that. 1743 01:40:50,130 --> 01:40:53,250 It was so much cheaper than a mini computer. You're a 1744 01:40:53,250 --> 01:40:56,010 mainframe everything else in between. It's, there's no it's 1745 01:40:56,040 --> 01:40:59,070 always been cheap. It always starts off, it starts off 1746 01:40:59,070 --> 01:41:02,580 cheaper. That's your original, so called value proposition. 1747 01:41:02,790 --> 01:41:06,690 Jumper. This value is the word value. And it's always been 1748 01:41:06,690 --> 01:41:09,210 cheaper. The fact that it's going to cost a trillion dollars 1749 01:41:09,210 --> 01:41:13,230 to solve a cheap labor problem, which is like worldwide you get 1750 01:41:13,230 --> 01:41:16,830 cheap labor anywhere. Is it is ridiculous. This guy. I don't 1751 01:41:16,830 --> 01:41:19,500 know who that guy was. But he nailed it. He's from Goldman 1752 01:41:19,500 --> 01:41:24,180 Sachs. They know what they're doing. Yeah. Yeah. They're 1753 01:41:24,180 --> 01:41:27,480 shorting where everyone's going long. They're shorting well, 1754 01:41:27,480 --> 01:41:29,190 they're telling everyone else to go along. 1755 01:41:30,090 --> 01:41:32,700 Adam Curry: Well, of course, that's what you do on CNBC. So 1756 01:41:32,700 --> 01:41:37,380 along in that vein, we've really started something with the 1757 01:41:37,410 --> 01:41:45,720 economic indicators. We had the the hair salons, and I think you 1758 01:41:45,720 --> 01:41:50,010 and Horowitz were doing some of this stuff. Sounded like it. I 1759 01:41:50,010 --> 01:41:53,790 got one from one of our producers who follows Helen or 1760 01:41:53,790 --> 01:41:54,960 Troy ah, oh, 1761 01:41:55,200 --> 01:41:58,080 John C Dvorak: by the way, these these are all called coincident 1762 01:41:58,110 --> 01:42:02,130 indicators. Is this a known unknown thing to look out for? 1763 01:42:02,940 --> 01:42:07,710 Adam Curry: I like economic indicators better, but Cohen's 1764 01:42:07,740 --> 01:42:09,630 What do you call them? Coincident 1765 01:42:09,630 --> 01:42:11,550 John C Dvorak: indicators, inquiries, their economic 1766 01:42:11,550 --> 01:42:15,240 indicators that just happened to coincide with some other action 1767 01:42:15,240 --> 01:42:19,320 going on someplace else. So if you can find one that's obscure, 1768 01:42:19,320 --> 01:42:22,860 and that really nails it, you can make a lot of money. Well, 1769 01:42:22,890 --> 01:42:25,800 Adam Curry: here's one this is. So how long are Troy there hair 1770 01:42:25,830 --> 01:42:30,630 hair products. Consolidated net sales declined 12.2% driven by 1771 01:42:30,630 --> 01:42:33,990 declining sales of hair appliances, prestige, haircare 1772 01:42:33,990 --> 01:42:37,140 products and humidifiers in beauty and wellness. 1773 01:42:38,370 --> 01:42:42,540 John C Dvorak: Helena Troy became a produce some earnings 1774 01:42:42,540 --> 01:42:46,410 recently they were off Mark. Yeah. And they became a kind of 1775 01:42:46,410 --> 01:42:50,130 a topic of discussion for an entire day at CNBC. 1776 01:42:50,460 --> 01:42:54,810 Adam Curry: Here is I like this one police officer in Chicago 1777 01:42:54,810 --> 01:42:59,220 here. Hello, thank you for your service. And in Chicago for both 1778 01:42:59,220 --> 01:43:02,160 police and fire departments for the last four to five years as 1779 01:43:02,160 --> 01:43:04,470 it has a large quantity of people passing up the 1780 01:43:04,470 --> 01:43:07,500 opportunity to take the job. And a lot of people in Chicago have 1781 01:43:07,500 --> 01:43:10,950 mentioned that the economy's good is good. And people don't 1782 01:43:10,950 --> 01:43:13,230 want to be cops or firemen. Because money is loosen. There's 1783 01:43:13,230 --> 01:43:16,650 plenty of jobs. I am roughly 35 years old, and I have had at 1784 01:43:16,650 --> 01:43:19,770 least three people that are around my age as my advice on 1785 01:43:19,770 --> 01:43:23,130 becoming a police officer in Chicago. One of them works in 1786 01:43:23,130 --> 01:43:28,350 finance, finance, but stated its suit on finance. It's too boom 1787 01:43:28,350 --> 01:43:31,440 and bust and the market is brutal. I'm also noticing a lot 1788 01:43:31,440 --> 01:43:34,560 of people in my age group 28 to 35 moving back home with parents 1789 01:43:34,560 --> 01:43:39,240 I think we can assume 2020 21 was the generations 2008 But 1790 01:43:39,240 --> 01:43:42,150 covered up by COVID. Like has been discussed on the show. He 1791 01:43:42,150 --> 01:43:46,530 feels that when when people start to look for jobs at police 1792 01:43:46,530 --> 01:43:50,010 and fire that that is an economic indicator of rough 1793 01:43:50,010 --> 01:43:54,930 times ahead. Right that's I think we could have an 1794 01:43:54,930 --> 01:43:58,230 interesting thesis. I think we can have the copy indicator, and 1795 01:43:58,230 --> 01:44:03,270 then hop indicator. Yes, the copy indicator. And then the 1796 01:44:03,270 --> 01:44:10,770 most mind boggling segment on CNBC. All the orange pill boys 1797 01:44:10,770 --> 01:44:11,880 are jacked 1798 01:44:11,880 --> 01:44:13,500 Unknown: as you know, I was discusses 1799 01:44:13,500 --> 01:44:14,790 Adam Curry: Larry Fink tick 1800 01:44:17,280 --> 01:44:23,190 Unknown: I was a proud skeptic. And I studied it and learned 1801 01:44:23,190 --> 01:44:27,240 about it and I came away saying okay, you know, my opinion five 1802 01:44:27,240 --> 01:44:29,520 years was wrong. Here's my opinion say this is what I 1803 01:44:29,520 --> 01:44:33,060 believe in today. I believe the opportunity today, I believe 1804 01:44:33,060 --> 01:44:36,810 bitcoin is legitimate. I'm not trying to say there's not bet 1805 01:44:36,810 --> 01:44:41,130 misuses like everything else. But it is a legitimate financial 1806 01:44:41,130 --> 01:44:46,020 instrument that allows you to have maybe uncorrelated non 1807 01:44:46,020 --> 01:44:49,620 correlated type of returns. I believe it is an instrument that 1808 01:44:49,620 --> 01:44:52,830 you invest in when you're more frightened, though. It is an 1809 01:44:52,830 --> 01:44:55,860 instrument when you believe that countries are debasing their 1810 01:44:55,860 --> 01:45:00,720 currency debase their currency by excess deficits. And some 1811 01:45:00,720 --> 01:45:05,550 countries are I believe we have countries where you're 1812 01:45:05,550 --> 01:45:08,880 frightened of your everyday existence and they have you an 1813 01:45:08,880 --> 01:45:12,630 opportunity to invest in a something that is outside your 1814 01:45:12,630 --> 01:45:17,490 country's you know, control then you can have more financial 1815 01:45:17,490 --> 01:45:21,960 control. And so I'm a major believer that there is a role 1816 01:45:21,960 --> 01:45:26,610 for Bitcoin and in portfolios, I believe you're going to see that 1817 01:45:26,610 --> 01:45:30,450 as an as one of the asset classes that we all look at. I 1818 01:45:30,450 --> 01:45:34,080 look at it as digital gold as I said before, and I do believe 1819 01:45:34,080 --> 01:45:38,970 there's a there's a there's a real need for everyone to look 1820 01:45:38,970 --> 01:45:45,240 at it as as one alternative to I would say the optimism that I 1821 01:45:45,240 --> 01:45:48,390 have in the world and I believe there's a great industrial use 1822 01:45:48,390 --> 01:45:51,000 for it and I think a lot of people are missing that 1823 01:45:51,660 --> 01:45:52,380 industrial 1824 01:45:52,380 --> 01:45:54,600 John C Dvorak: use let's see industrial use 1825 01:45:55,200 --> 01:45:59,460 Adam Curry: edge he believes it I have no idea do believes do 1826 01:45:59,460 --> 01:46:04,650 believes it. We've come a long way from being 1827 01:46:05,730 --> 01:46:08,820 John C Dvorak: last guide listen to Well, I mean, the AI guy and 1828 01:46:08,970 --> 01:46:12,030 you know, the black group Black Rock has got their heads up. 1829 01:46:12,270 --> 01:46:13,680 Biden's ask. Yeah, and 1830 01:46:13,680 --> 01:46:16,830 Adam Curry: they make no money. They're very unsuccessful. Oh, 1831 01:46:16,830 --> 01:46:17,130 they made 1832 01:46:17,130 --> 01:46:19,050 John C Dvorak: plenty of money, but they're not making money 1833 01:46:19,080 --> 01:46:22,650 because of these this off handed advice that they're giving other 1834 01:46:22,650 --> 01:46:23,670 people okay. 1835 01:46:25,440 --> 01:46:28,320 Adam Curry: All right. You know, they have an ETF, right? It's a 1836 01:46:28,740 --> 01:46:33,630 very successful Bitcoin ETF. So they do put their money where 1837 01:46:33,630 --> 01:46:34,440 their mouth is. 1838 01:46:38,700 --> 01:46:41,430 John C Dvorak: I don't know how successful that ETF is ETFs are 1839 01:46:41,430 --> 01:46:46,440 not a good idea. Okay, because they naturally degrade it just 1840 01:46:46,440 --> 01:46:50,190 naturally. Well, there's a real there's a real problem with ETFs 1841 01:46:50,340 --> 01:46:51,120 because you're shorting 1842 01:46:51,120 --> 01:46:54,780 Adam Curry: alright. ETFs No, good. I can't. I cannot pray 1843 01:46:54,780 --> 01:47:01,140 your comment about ETFs. All I know is they have one. We can 1844 01:47:01,140 --> 01:47:04,650 take a break here or we could get to the other big news which 1845 01:47:04,740 --> 01:47:09,090 just it spanned all the networks for about an hour and then it 1846 01:47:09,090 --> 01:47:12,930 disappeared. But man this was a doozy. Senator Baldwin has left. 1847 01:47:13,950 --> 01:47:15,210 What was it?

I have never been anything 1855 01:47:33,990 --> 01:47:35,550 but a patriot up my country. 1856 01:47:35,580 --> 01:47:38,640 No Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is joining a group of more than 1857 01:47:38,640 --> 01:47:41,910 30 Democrats calling for the senators resignation. 1858 01:47:41,940 --> 01:47:45,330 Prosecutors spent nine weeks proving Menendez accepted 1000s 1859 01:47:45,330 --> 01:47:49,560 of dollars in cash gold bars and a new Mercedes in exchange for 1860 01:47:49,560 --> 01:47:53,400 actions that important benefited the Egyptian government's 1861 01:47:54,750 --> 01:47:56,970 Adam Curry: they had another clip and they had his music 1862 01:47:56,970 --> 01:48:00,270 John C Dvorak: guitar and now I thought was Egypt.

And you get these modern podcast apps alert us to 1906 01:50:30,630 --> 01:50:34,020 the pod pink system, which is a decentralized notification 1907 01:50:34,020 --> 01:50:38,760 system. Blockchain within 90 seconds of us publishing so you 1908 01:50:38,760 --> 01:50:41,760 go ahead, you know, the blockchain, we have a blockchain 1909 01:50:41,820 --> 01:50:45,210 is a blockchain. Yes. The pod ping system runs on a 1910 01:50:45,210 --> 01:50:50,100 blockchain. Why? So it's completely decentralized. No one 1911 01:50:50,100 --> 01:50:55,110 owns it. So anybody can ping the blockchain. It's not a I don't 1912 01:50:55,110 --> 01:50:56,130 want to own it. But 1913 01:50:56,130 --> 01:50:57,900 John C Dvorak: where's the blockchain is that you can 1914 01:50:57,900 --> 01:51:01,140 Adam Curry: pin it's in the cloud. The place it's in 1915 01:51:01,140 --> 01:51:02,100 blockchain space. 1916 01:51:02,340 --> 01:51:04,770 John C Dvorak: You can you can ping somebody has to be hosting 1917 01:51:04,770 --> 01:51:05,700 something. No, 1918 01:51:05,700 --> 01:51:09,300 Adam Curry: it's what, like, hundreds of 1000s of people are 1919 01:51:09,300 --> 01:51:13,530 hosting this blockchain. So you can they all stop? Yeah. Okay. 1920 01:51:13,560 --> 01:51:17,040 All right, John. They're not all going to stop. But if they all 1921 01:51:17,040 --> 01:51:21,450 stop, then we have other problems. So that blockchain has 1922 01:51:21,450 --> 01:51:25,890 been around for 50 years, the net goes down. Yeah. I don't 1923 01:51:25,890 --> 01:51:28,410 think you'll be worried about your podcast. If the net goes 1924 01:51:28,410 --> 01:51:31,710 down, you won't be getting your podcast. And we can say wherever 1925 01:51:31,710 --> 01:51:36,540 you don't get your podcasts. Those images come from our 1926 01:51:36,540 --> 01:51:40,920 artists who understand the value for value system extremely well, 1927 01:51:41,280 --> 01:51:44,370 they, they'd like to give us value back for the value they 1928 01:51:44,370 --> 01:51:46,530 received from the show, which is what we've been doing. It'd be 1929 01:51:46,530 --> 01:51:50,850 17 years in October. And instead of taking corporate you know, as 1930 01:51:50,850 --> 01:51:56,910 someone got mad, and said that your tip of the day, which was I 1931 01:51:56,910 --> 01:52:00,720 think it was a book. No, it was a water filter. Was it a water 1932 01:52:00,720 --> 01:52:01,170 filter? Oh, 1933 01:52:01,170 --> 01:52:04,260 John C Dvorak: yeah. The Clearly Filtered Yeah. 1934 01:52:04,530 --> 01:52:06,510 Adam Curry: And you said you'll get it on Amazon and then 1935 01:52:06,510 --> 01:52:10,200 immediately, man, that's insulting.

You know, the art 1970 01:53:48,120 --> 01:53:50,880 Well, I'm gonna get to avoid zero does the infrastructure 1971 01:53:51,030 --> 01:53:54,630 everybody pray for Mark, he has all kinds of intestinal issues. 1972 01:53:54,810 --> 01:53:59,610 Oh, this is not good. Now. Now it's in fact, it's really not 1973 01:53:59,610 --> 01:54:04,050 good. You know, he can't really sit down even. Oh, 1974 01:54:04,110 --> 01:54:05,850 John C Dvorak: I gotta go should give him a call.

Okay, which is, 1979 01:54:21,990 --> 01:54:26,820 you know, the troll room still is is on his server. He's just, 1980 01:54:27,150 --> 01:54:30,030 there's just running for everybody, which has no agenda 1981 01:54:30,030 --> 01:54:33,720 stream, which is you know, where all the trolls hang out. So yes, 1982 01:54:33,720 --> 01:54:37,230 we do have artists who like to give us art. Some of them donate 1983 01:54:37,230 --> 01:54:40,560 to financially, but the artists just phenomenal for us to be 1984 01:54:40,560 --> 01:54:44,130 able to choose. There's a little slim pickins for us on the last 1985 01:54:44,130 --> 01:54:47,400 show. For a number of reasons we'll get to but firstly want to 1986 01:54:47,400 --> 01:54:52,290 thank our Dutch master Dame Kenny bam. We chose her volume 1987 01:54:52,290 --> 01:54:55,230 knob her rhetoric volume knob, which that 1988 01:54:55,230 --> 01:54:57,840 John C Dvorak: was a vet that was under protest. 1989 01:54:59,340 --> 01:55:01,860 Adam Curry: Yes, under protest do explain 1990 01:55:02,610 --> 01:55:07,080 John C Dvorak: was not my favorite. We've had another I 1991 01:55:07,200 --> 01:55:11,520 see it as a best possible fallback, but you are rejecting 1992 01:55:11,550 --> 01:55:12,450 everything. 1993 01:55:12,960 --> 01:55:16,710 Adam Curry: Well, here was the main problem. So we kind of 1994 01:55:16,710 --> 01:55:23,280 liked the idea of Trump as Van Gogh and Scarah manga had 1995 01:55:23,280 --> 01:55:27,270 probably the best version of Trump as Van Gogh, but you 1996 01:55:27,270 --> 01:55:30,570 didn't see it because there was John's favorite boobs front and 1997 01:55:30,570 --> 01:55:31,170 center, which 1998 01:55:31,170 --> 01:55:33,300 John C Dvorak: of course, that wasn't the reason the Bucha 1999 01:55:33,300 --> 01:55:37,110 Graham Angus boobs? No, there were two of the Dutch there are 2000 01:55:37,110 --> 01:55:41,220 two of them, the Trump and the in the past year, one of them 2001 01:55:41,220 --> 01:55:46,590 you liked which was tenten eels. And I like Scarem mangas are 2002 01:55:46,590 --> 01:55:49,830 right next to each other. And I like Scarah mangas not because 2003 01:55:49,830 --> 01:55:53,970 of the heavy topped a woman although that was not I didn't 2004 01:55:53,970 --> 01:56:00,660 think it hurt that piece by any means. But the but Scarah manga 2005 01:56:00,660 --> 01:56:04,980 did a tremendous job of making Van Gogh look like Trump he did 2006 01:56:04,980 --> 01:56:06,510 and to kneel did not 2007 01:56:07,350 --> 01:56:12,030 Adam Curry: agreed. And there were a number of people who did 2008 01:56:12,030 --> 01:56:15,450 Trump era things which we were kind of against but the Van Gogh 2009 01:56:15,450 --> 01:56:18,450 thing was funny, but they had the wrong year 2010 01:56:19,560 --> 01:56:21,870 John C Dvorak: yes, it was one piece in particular right the 2011 01:56:21,870 --> 01:56:25,140 record correct the record correct the record has the wrong 2012 01:56:25,170 --> 01:56:28,260 year and mine how would that doesn't take any talent? 2013 01:56:29,580 --> 01:56:34,110 Adam Curry: Did you see Darren O'Neal synthesis prompts for the 2014 01:56:34,110 --> 01:56:34,980 his artwork 2015 01:56:35,040 --> 01:56:37,860 John C Dvorak: yes I saw the prompts. Darren O'Neal has 2016 01:56:37,860 --> 01:56:44,280 decided to issue his own artistic capabilities in favor 2017 01:56:44,280 --> 01:56:51,840 of comic strip bloggers prompt jockey AI and he sent a sent I 2018 01:56:51,870 --> 01:56:56,400 we had did we because of the show before we demanded that he 2019 01:56:56,400 --> 01:57:02,130 sent us send us your prompts.

There 2337 02:16:44,459 --> 02:16:50,129 Unknown: has never been a puzzle like like Rubik's Cube. Wow. 2338 02:16:50,639 --> 02:16:51,179 Yes. 2339 02:16:51,179 --> 02:16:52,079 The Rubik's cube 2340 02:16:52,260 --> 02:16:56,460 that a creator is an 80 year old Hungarian architect or no Rubik 2341 02:16:56,460 --> 02:16:59,610 back in the day, he was a professor in Budapest fascinated 2342 02:16:59,610 --> 02:17:02,970 with geometry, and he created a prototype in 1974 that took a 2343 02:17:02,970 --> 02:17:04,170 month to solve. So 2344 02:17:04,169 --> 02:17:07,769 the creator of the Rubik's Cube, Mr. Rubik himself was stumped by 2345 02:17:07,769 --> 02:17:09,539 his own invention very difficult. 2346 02:17:09,720 --> 02:17:13,350 Adam Curry: I would not have guessed that and in fact, 50 2347 02:17:13,350 --> 02:17:18,240 years, and I'm thinking back I was I 10. When that came out, I 2348 02:17:18,240 --> 02:17:24,150 guess so. No, that is crazy. It's, you know, my, my nephew, 2349 02:17:25,080 --> 02:17:32,460 Connor. Connor is from the from the elite side of the family. He 2350 02:17:32,460 --> 02:17:39,540 did his submission to an if it was the Juilliard that he plays 2351 02:17:39,570 --> 02:17:44,250 a classical piece. while solving the Rubik's Cube is a great, 2352 02:17:44,580 --> 02:17:45,000 that's 2353 02:17:45,000 --> 02:17:45,600 John C Dvorak: talent. 2354 02:17:45,660 --> 02:17:49,920 Adam Curry: I gotta find it. Yeah, he's from the, from the 2355 02:17:49,920 --> 02:17:52,140 Buckley side of the family. Dad brings 2356 02:17:52,140 --> 02:17:57,570 John C Dvorak: in a another ask Adam Q, which is a bonus. The 2357 02:17:57,570 --> 02:17:59,490 second part of this is this one. 2358 02:17:59,520 --> 02:18:02,700 Unknown: Now half a century later, about 500 million Rubik's 2359 02:18:02,700 --> 02:18:05,550 Cubes, official versions, and look alikes have been sold 2360 02:18:05,550 --> 02:18:06,570 worldwide and 2361 02:18:06,570 --> 02:18:10,680 solving it has become a competitive sport. The world 2362 02:18:10,680 --> 02:18:11,280 cube 2363 02:18:11,310 --> 02:18:12,180 Association has 2364 02:18:12,180 --> 02:18:14,610 an association for everything. Yeah, that's what the script 2365 02:18:14,610 --> 02:18:16,170 says. I wouldn't know 2366 02:18:16,200 --> 02:18:19,380 now. The world cube Association says the current world record 2367 02:18:19,380 --> 02:18:21,090 set last year is just over. 2368 02:18:22,020 --> 02:18:24,330 Adam Curry: Okay, how much time? Yeah, how 2369 02:18:24,330 --> 02:18:27,600 John C Dvorak: much time does it take to solve a Rubik's cube a 2370 02:18:27,600 --> 02:18:31,320 Rubik's Cube puzzle? By the number one guy. 2371 02:18:31,350 --> 02:18:33,570 Adam Curry: I've seen some of these. I'm going to say Oh, 2372 02:18:33,600 --> 02:18:35,340 John C Dvorak: this is astonishing to say seven 2373 02:18:35,340 --> 02:18:40,620 seconds. Play the answer heard set last year is just over three 2374 02:18:40,650 --> 02:18:42,240 seconds. Watch it on YouTube. 2375 02:18:42,240 --> 02:18:45,570 Unknown: Three seconds must be a very short video. Wow, 2376 02:18:45,600 --> 02:18:46,590 Adam Curry: three know how 2377 02:18:46,590 --> 02:18:51,000 John C Dvorak: that's possible. Except I'll say this. Now our 2378 02:18:51,000 --> 02:18:57,900 old spreadsheet guide of a friend of ours is Eric Mackey. 2379 02:18:57,930 --> 02:19:02,910 Yes. Eric Matt, the guy who does can do a Rubik's Cube in three 2380 02:19:02,910 --> 02:19:07,980 seconds sees things differently than you do. Because he can look 2381 02:19:07,980 --> 02:19:10,740 at it and then they say go and he's got it done in three 2382 02:19:10,740 --> 02:19:14,160 seconds. Eric is one of these guys. He does not the Rubik's 2383 02:19:14,160 --> 02:19:17,190 cube so much. But we used to do this all the time at the table. 2384 02:19:17,400 --> 02:19:20,460 You could take one of those crazy puzzles that have a bunch 2385 02:19:20,460 --> 02:19:24,090 of white you know, things hooked together and some off awkward 2386 02:19:24,090 --> 02:19:26,760 way and you're supposed to pull on you try to get this thing on 2387 02:19:26,850 --> 02:19:27,210 ya 2388 02:19:27,210 --> 02:19:30,330 Adam Curry: know? Those those things that curly cube metal 2389 02:19:30,330 --> 02:19:31,260 things Yeah, 2390 02:19:31,259 --> 02:19:35,339 John C Dvorak: those curly Q metal things. And I I would say 2391 02:19:35,339 --> 02:19:38,669 I would have one it took me like five minutes to you know, 2392 02:19:38,699 --> 02:19:42,959 jerking around getting the thing to fall apart. Eric and this is 2393 02:19:42,989 --> 02:19:46,589 God's truth and and he does this with other things too. He can 2394 02:19:46,589 --> 02:19:47,999 like pack a container. 2395 02:19:48,030 --> 02:19:50,580 Adam Curry: Yeah, he's he has kind of a Rain Man vibe. You can 2396 02:19:50,580 --> 02:19:53,460 count things and room and do all kinds of stuff like 2397 02:19:53,610 --> 02:19:55,470 John C Dvorak: he does do I don't know if he does that. But 2398 02:19:55,470 --> 02:19:59,760 he does with the puzzles. He does the following. Do you put 2399 02:19:59,760 --> 02:20:04,980 it in front of him and he looks at it for about, I don't know, 2400 02:20:05,010 --> 02:20:09,030 15 seconds, and then just grab it and boom, it's all part it 2401 02:20:09,030 --> 02:20:12,900 just instant. It's like as soon as he picks it up as into the 10 2402 02:20:12,900 --> 02:20:16,620 pieces that it was designed to be part of the puzzle, and then 2403 02:20:16,620 --> 02:20:20,460 he can put it right back together. It's unbelievable. And 2404 02:20:20,460 --> 02:20:23,160 so I have to assume that Rubik's Cube guy and I've heard this 2405 02:20:23,160 --> 02:20:27,990 from a lot of engineers have these this capability. Chad 2406 02:20:27,990 --> 02:20:31,800 Heath, who did one of the buses for the IBM PC, he said he 2407 02:20:31,800 --> 02:20:35,850 didn't realize that he can, he can look at a bus. And he can 2408 02:20:35,850 --> 02:20:40,470 see immediately why it won't work. Just by what the pin outs 2409 02:20:40,470 --> 02:20:42,390 are. Contracts are going to work Contrary 2410 02:20:42,390 --> 02:20:44,910 Adam Curry: to popular belief. Eric actually has a family with 2411 02:20:44,940 --> 02:20:46,290 three kids. He 2412 02:20:46,290 --> 02:20:49,050 John C Dvorak: has three kids, and they're all a happy camper. 2413 02:20:49,050 --> 02:20:49,170 He 2414 02:20:49,170 --> 02:20:50,010 Adam Curry: figured it out. 2415 02:20:51,180 --> 02:20:54,900 Unknown: As Adam will he know Oh, really? Well. 2416 02:20:55,110 --> 02:20:55,890 I don't know. 2417 02:20:59,850 --> 02:21:00,960 Answer the question go. 2418 02:21:04,560 --> 02:21:06,450 John C Dvorak: There are people that have that, you know, that 2419 02:21:06,450 --> 02:21:11,790 was good for you, by the way how you're gonna that would sound of 2420 02:21:11,790 --> 02:21:15,000 what? You're kind of one of these guys. Oh, 2421 02:21:15,000 --> 02:21:18,960 Adam Curry: yeah. Oh, yeah, definitely. Oh, sound big is big 2422 02:21:18,960 --> 02:21:22,770 with me. Sound sound. I like doing so well. Like, let me do a 2423 02:21:22,770 --> 02:21:27,090 little light, light to clip in here. This, this was kind of 2424 02:21:27,090 --> 02:21:33,510 fun. Because I saw this story six days ago. And I think I 2425 02:21:33,510 --> 02:21:37,470 might have clipped it, Mike, who cares? The reason why it was 2426 02:21:37,470 --> 02:21:42,150 interesting to me is I built a website back in the onramp days 2427 02:21:42,150 --> 02:21:45,930 before it became think new ideas. And it was the website 2428 02:21:45,930 --> 02:21:49,530 you visit more than once a month tampax.com. That was the actual 2429 02:21:49,530 --> 02:21:55,200 slogan on the website. And so there was this study that came 2430 02:21:55,200 --> 02:21:57,630 out. And I had clipped off like now that's something I should 2431 02:21:57,630 --> 02:22:01,080 probably probably put on the backburner if we have some time. 2432 02:22:01,350 --> 02:22:04,470 And today, a new report comes out and I'll play the original 2433 02:22:04,470 --> 02:22:05,820 report in a moment. Dr. 2434 02:22:05,820 --> 02:22:06,720 Unknown: Lauren Stryker, thanks 2435 02:22:06,720 --> 02:22:08,880 for being with us again. Morning. So we're gonna do some 2436 02:22:08,880 --> 02:22:11,670 health headlines of the day. First off, I think we did this 2437 02:22:11,670 --> 02:22:14,700 story where they said metal was detected in tampons. Should 2438 02:22:14,700 --> 02:22:16,590 people be worried about this talk about 2439 02:22:16,620 --> 02:22:19,650 okay, this sounds terrifying, right? So I don't mind this is 2440 02:22:19,650 --> 02:22:23,070 nothing to panic about. So what's this all about? Got a lot 2441 02:22:23,070 --> 02:22:26,280 of media last week, basically, some scientists tested to look 2442 02:22:26,280 --> 02:22:30,300 for the presence of metals in tampons, all kinds of tampons, 2443 02:22:30,300 --> 02:22:34,380 every brand organic, inorganic, and they found that there was 2444 02:22:34,380 --> 02:22:37,710 metal on all of them for arsenic, cadmium, lead. So this 2445 02:22:37,710 --> 02:22:40,530 sounds terrible, right. But there's three reasons that no 2446 02:22:40,530 --> 02:22:43,800 one needs to panic. Number one is there's no evidence that 2447 02:22:43,800 --> 02:22:47,700 these metals get outside the tampon, much less get absorbed 2448 02:22:47,730 --> 02:22:51,690 by the body. Number two, we're talking trace amounts, teeny, 2449 02:22:51,720 --> 02:22:54,990 teeny, tiny amounts that are being like, clinically 2450 02:22:54,990 --> 02:22:58,590 significant at all. But number three is a big one, you're 2451 02:22:58,590 --> 02:23:02,760 already getting your daily dose of arsenic in your kale salad in 2452 02:23:02,760 --> 02:23:06,990 your arugula in any fruits or vegetables that either grow or 2453 02:23:06,990 --> 02:23:12,600 in the water, because we have metals in our water supply in 2454 02:23:12,600 --> 02:23:15,930 the ground. So this idea that you're going to put this tampon 2455 02:23:15,930 --> 02:23:18,930 in your body and it's going to do terrible things to you is not 2456 02:23:18,930 --> 02:23:22,020 based in science. This is clickbait. This is fear 2457 02:23:22,020 --> 02:23:25,110 mongering. And in fact, the people that wrote this article 2458 02:23:25,110 --> 02:23:28,470 said, Hey, this is like no big deal. We just want people to 2459 02:23:28,470 --> 02:23:31,410 know this. And let's just talk about organic for a minute. 2460 02:23:32,070 --> 02:23:36,120 Adam Curry: The reason why I play this is because I happen to 2461 02:23:36,120 --> 02:23:40,620 know how these companies operate. And the choice a young 2462 02:23:40,620 --> 02:23:45,990 woman makes between different menstrual cycle products will 2463 02:23:45,990 --> 02:23:49,560 probably determine their usage for the rest of their life. So 2464 02:23:49,560 --> 02:23:53,550 Tampax was really all in on trying to get young girls as 2465 02:23:53,550 --> 02:23:57,270 soon as possible to use their product. And what this was, was 2466 02:23:57,270 --> 02:24:03,060 a bogus as stupid study from the makers of cup products, which is 2467 02:24:03,060 --> 02:24:06,840 now all over social media girls going oh, look at this. They're 2468 02:24:06,840 --> 02:24:10,110 all getting paid for it. So they put out this fear mongering 2469 02:24:10,110 --> 02:24:10,620 report. 2470 02:24:10,650 --> 02:24:12,840 Unknown: As you can well imagine I have a teenage daughter and 2471 02:24:12,840 --> 02:24:16,530 I'm thinking about this, you know, for her as well. And so we 2472 02:24:16,530 --> 02:24:19,230 are going to spend a bit of time talking about alternatives for 2473 02:24:19,230 --> 02:24:22,080 people that they can consider if they are concerned about this. 2474 02:24:22,320 --> 02:24:23,130 Okay, well let 2475 02:24:23,130 --> 02:24:24,090 me tee you up on that one. 2476 02:24:24,120 --> 02:24:26,610 Adam Curry: Let me tee you up. This is MVC let me tee you up. 2477 02:24:26,790 --> 02:24:29,070 Let's read what the script says. Okay, well, 2478 02:24:29,070 --> 02:24:30,870 Unknown: let me take you up on that. What are what are some of 2479 02:24:30,870 --> 02:24:33,120 those alternatives? I think people know obviously pads are 2480 02:24:33,120 --> 02:24:33,900 an option there's 2481 02:24:36,180 --> 02:24:38,550 a exactly so there are two things that were kind of 2482 02:24:38,550 --> 02:24:41,190 similarly there are there are menstrual cups there are 2483 02:24:41,190 --> 02:24:43,410 menstrual discs which essentially sort of 2484 02:24:43,680 --> 02:24:46,800 Adam Curry: this was a native ad of horrible proportion. 2485 02:24:47,280 --> 02:24:51,870 Unbelievable scaring people into thinking this arsenic in your 2486 02:24:51,870 --> 02:24:52,770 tank what goes 2487 02:24:52,770 --> 02:24:55,530 John C Dvorak: on and the mainstream media constantly as 2488 02:24:55,560 --> 02:25:01,560 suppose it news exactly, the exactly disgusting Yes.

Well, 2490 02:25:04,410 --> 02:25:05,100 there's that. 2491 02:25:06,480 --> 02:25:09,120 Adam Curry: It's your own fault. You did it. You brought that on 2492 02:25:09,120 --> 02:25:12,750 yourself. Hey, let me tee you up. John. Let me tee you up. I 2493 02:25:12,750 --> 02:25:16,800 need to be teed up. I'm gonna tee you up with a very short 2494 02:25:16,800 --> 02:25:21,420 report from The King's Speech, which was Prince Charles. And 2495 02:25:21,720 --> 02:25:23,550 this is the piece that was sent to me a 2496 02:25:23,550 --> 02:25:25,890 Unknown: bill will be introduced to progressively increase the 2497 02:25:25,890 --> 02:25:30,480 age at which people can buy cigarettes and impose limits on 2498 02:25:30,480 --> 02:25:34,890 the sale and marketing of vapes. Ministers will also legislate to 2499 02:25:34,890 --> 02:25:40,050 restricted advertising of junk food to children. Along with the 2500 02:25:40,050 --> 02:25:44,160 sale of high caffeine energy drinks, to children, a bill will 2501 02:25:44,160 --> 02:25:46,230 be introduced to progressively Oh, 2502 02:25:46,230 --> 02:25:50,490 Adam Curry: sorry.

The King is very obsessed. 2505 02:25:58,500 --> 02:26:01,050 John C Dvorak: It's worse than that. I sent him a bunch of 2506 02:26:01,050 --> 02:26:07,710 clips from the King's speech that were done by NTD. UK, which 2507 02:26:07,710 --> 02:26:11,070 I normally don't. Interesting. Okay, so they have these are 2508 02:26:11,070 --> 02:26:15,150 four clips and they stay in the fourth clip is the kicker.

It contains 40 2595 02:30:56,190 --> 02:30:59,760 pieces of proposed legislation. Some of the key bills announced 2596 02:30:59,760 --> 02:31:03,330 include a bill to toughen spending rules. This seeks to 2597 02:31:03,330 --> 02:31:06,120 strengthen the role of the economic watchdog the office for 2598 02:31:06,120 --> 02:31:09,600 budgetary responsibility to guarantee that major fiscal 2599 02:31:09,600 --> 02:31:12,570 decisions are properly scrutinized. There is a crime 2600 02:31:12,570 --> 02:31:15,330 and policing bill which will include a ban on zombie style 2601 02:31:15,330 --> 02:31:19,380 knives. It will also include a new type of antisocial behavior 2602 02:31:19,380 --> 02:31:23,310 order and penalties for shoplifting labourers landmark 2603 02:31:23,310 --> 02:31:27,030 bill to boost workers rights is referred to as a new deal for 2604 02:31:27,030 --> 02:31:30,750 working people. It includes a ban on zero hour contracts 2605 02:31:30,780 --> 02:31:33,840 giving workers rights immediately on starting a job 2606 02:31:34,050 --> 02:31:37,080 and they crack down on the practice of fire and rehire. 2607 02:31:37,860 --> 02:31:40,530 There's a strengthened version of the renter's reform bill. 2608 02:31:40,590 --> 02:31:43,860 This retains a ban on no fault evictions, and would bring in 2609 02:31:43,860 --> 02:31:47,010 measures to boost renters rights. Then onto planning 2610 02:31:47,040 --> 02:31:49,440 infrastructure and energy. There's a bill to reform 2611 02:31:49,440 --> 02:31:52,890 procedures to accelerate house building across the country. The 2612 02:31:52,890 --> 02:31:56,070 government is seeking to re nationalize nearly all passenger 2613 02:31:56,070 --> 02:31:59,700 rail services within five years a key priority for the Labour 2614 02:31:59,700 --> 02:32:03,450 governments and the bill to establish GB energy a state 2615 02:32:03,450 --> 02:32:06,930 owned company which will oversee investments in decarbonisation 2616 02:32:06,930 --> 02:32:09,840 projects such as offshore wind. Wow, how 2617 02:32:09,840 --> 02:32:13,380 Adam Curry: are they going to pay for this? Inflate the pound? 2618 02:32:14,700 --> 02:32:16,410 John C Dvorak: Well, that's an interesting point. I think you'd 2619 02:32:16,410 --> 02:32:17,160 think of that. 2620 02:32:17,400 --> 02:32:19,590 Adam Curry: Hey, could be cheap for us to go visit. 2621 02:32:20,520 --> 02:32:23,460 John C Dvorak: Yeah, it's already Yeah, but every I mean, 2622 02:32:23,460 --> 02:32:26,850 the pound is worth less now. It's only a buck 20 I mean, I 2623 02:32:26,850 --> 02:32:31,200 used to go there was a buck 60 was always 16. Sure, but 2624 02:32:31,200 --> 02:32:34,620 everything's overpriced now, so it doesn't really still a gyp 2625 02:32:35,100 --> 02:32:38,880 now. So the last thing is the kicker, which is this one, and 2626 02:32:38,880 --> 02:32:42,180 this is classic, classic socialist idea that is 2627 02:32:42,180 --> 02:32:47,070 incorporated into these 40. Labor parts of the labor 2628 02:32:47,070 --> 02:32:50,430 manifesto. And then you define things that use a manifesto 2629 02:32:50,430 --> 02:32:53,370 term, which fits right in here we go. Moving on 2630 02:32:53,370 --> 02:32:56,190 Unknown: to AI another bill, which creates binding rules to 2631 02:32:56,190 --> 02:32:59,280 govern the development of artificial intelligence.

Every country gets the 2646 02:33:51,960 --> 02:33:55,080 government she deserves. That's what y'all voted for. Because 2647 02:33:55,080 --> 02:33:58,320 you hated the conservatives like, let them let those labor 2648 02:33:58,320 --> 02:34:02,340 guys in. They've been chomping at the bit. And yeah, they can 2649 02:34:02,340 --> 02:34:02,670 lower 2650 02:34:02,670 --> 02:34:05,820 John C Dvorak: the age to 16 that is always a winner of if 2651 02:34:05,820 --> 02:34:07,050 you're a socialist, 2652 02:34:07,080 --> 02:34:10,770 Adam Curry: they are going to throw you in irons. And what do 2653 02:34:10,770 --> 02:34:13,980 you think those those reforms? Oh, you won't be able to say 2654 02:34:13,980 --> 02:34:17,040 anything. They won't be able to say anything. So he can't 2655 02:34:17,040 --> 02:34:17,970 already can't 2656 02:34:18,690 --> 02:34:20,370 John C Dvorak: know they're already cracked down on social 2657 02:34:20,370 --> 02:34:23,970 media in the UK. Wow. It will get arrested for nothing. 2658 02:34:25,800 --> 02:34:28,800 Adam Curry: There's unconfirmed rumors coming in. The Chinese 2659 02:34:28,800 --> 02:34:32,220 president Zhi Jing ping had a stroke. 2660 02:34:33,630 --> 02:34:34,680 Unknown: Who I haven't heard that. 2661 02:34:35,940 --> 02:34:38,400 John C Dvorak: Today's news from out of China was that they got 2662 02:34:38,400 --> 02:34:40,890 rid of a number of people from the ministry. 2663 02:34:41,340 --> 02:34:43,950 Adam Curry: Now could be a palace coup going on. Who knows? 2664 02:34:45,360 --> 02:34:48,570 John C Dvorak: I want to play I just wanted this back to Biden 2665 02:34:48,570 --> 02:34:53,190 for just a second. Why not? I wanted to play these two clips 2666 02:34:53,190 --> 02:34:55,740 from his Lester Holt interview. Yeah, he 2667 02:34:55,740 --> 02:34:56,610 Adam Curry: was pretty angry. 2668 02:34:56,730 --> 02:34:59,520 John C Dvorak: He was late. He was mad and he kept saying look, 2669 02:34:59,550 --> 02:35:03,690 look Look, look, look. I mean, when you hear somebody saying 2670 02:35:03,690 --> 02:35:08,100 look as much as Biden does he this is like, this is defiant. 2671 02:35:08,100 --> 02:35:13,410 He's very defiant. But he's also half brain dead. And I only have 2672 02:35:13,410 --> 02:35:17,280 two clips. But the one the first clip is the good one. But 2673 02:35:17,280 --> 02:35:19,920 Unknown: let's talk about the conversation. This just started 2674 02:35:19,920 --> 02:35:23,130 and it's really about language, what we say out loud and the 2675 02:35:23,130 --> 02:35:26,580 consequences of those you called your opponent and existential 2676 02:35:26,580 --> 02:35:30,180 threat. On a call a week ago, you said it's time to put Trump 2677 02:35:30,210 --> 02:35:34,350 in the bullseye for some dispute about the context. But I think 2678 02:35:34,350 --> 02:35:36,630 you appreciate the crosshairs 2679 02:35:36,630 --> 02:35:40,080 that's all we focus on. Look, the truth of the matter is what 2680 02:35:40,080 --> 02:35:43,770 I guess I was talking about at the time was, there was very 2681 02:35:43,770 --> 02:35:49,110 little focus on Trump's agenda. The other term was Bullseye was 2682 02:35:49,350 --> 02:35:52,200 the mistake to use or I didn't, I didn't say crosshairs. I have 2683 02:35:52,200 --> 02:35:56,700 a bull's eye net focus on it. Focus on what he's doing. Focus 2684 02:35:56,700 --> 02:36:01,500 on one as far as policies focus on the number of lies. He told 2685 02:36:01,500 --> 02:36:04,440 the debate focus. I mean, there's there's a whole range of 2686 02:36:04,440 --> 02:36:07,620 things that look, I'm not the guy that said, I want to be a 2687 02:36:07,620 --> 02:36:08,760 dictator on day one. 2688 02:36:09,900 --> 02:36:13,470 Adam Curry: He didn't say that. He said it'd be a dictator under 2689 02:36:13,470 --> 02:36:17,700 for one day. Lies. Lies if 2690 02:36:17,700 --> 02:36:20,820 John C Dvorak: they did Biden is a liar. But this idea that, you 2691 02:36:20,820 --> 02:36:24,960 know, I said crossers? I mean, bulls. I mean, I mean, focus was 2692 02:36:24,960 --> 02:36:28,410 great. So we have part of the second part is not as 2693 02:36:28,410 --> 02:36:30,720 entertaining. But it's funny too. And I 2694 02:36:30,720 --> 02:36:33,120 Unknown: asked him about his struggle in the debate and the 2695 02:36:33,120 --> 02:36:36,210 calls from some Democrats, for him to step aside. Do you feel 2696 02:36:36,210 --> 02:36:39,660 like you've weathered the storm on this issue of whether you 2697 02:36:39,660 --> 02:36:40,890 should be on the ticket or not? 2698 02:36:42,420 --> 02:36:45,690 13 million people voted for me to be the nominee in the 2699 02:36:45,690 --> 02:36:47,340 Democratic Party. Okay. 2700 02:36:48,720 --> 02:36:51,420 In your last TV interview, you were asked if you had watched 2701 02:36:51,420 --> 02:36:55,080 the debate, and your answer was I don't think so. No. Have you 2702 02:36:55,080 --> 02:36:55,860 since seen it? 2703 02:36:56,670 --> 02:36:58,740 I've seen pieces of it. I've not watched the whole debate. 2704 02:36:58,980 --> 02:37:02,340 The President also responding to news of Donald Trump's new vice 2705 02:37:02,340 --> 02:37:05,880 presidential pick, when I asked you about just shortly before 2706 02:37:05,880 --> 02:37:09,600 you and I sat down, former President Trump named his vice 2707 02:37:09,600 --> 02:37:13,650 presidential pick JD Vance, what does that tell you? His 2708 02:37:13,650 --> 02:37:17,190 qualities? What does that tell you about former President 2709 02:37:17,190 --> 02:37:20,520 Trump's values and to him in terms of who he will surround 2710 02:37:20,520 --> 02:37:23,190 himself with in the next administration? Should he win? 2711 02:37:24,330 --> 02:37:26,370 It's not unusual, it's gonna surround himself with people who 2712 02:37:26,370 --> 02:37:30,270 agree completely with him. And wouldn't recognize supportive 2713 02:37:31,170 --> 02:37:33,600 even though if you go back and listen to the things that JD 2714 02:37:33,600 --> 02:37:34,650 Vance Said About Trump. 2715 02:37:35,640 --> 02:37:38,280 Adam Curry: You know, I think I have angrier clips from Joe from 2716 02:37:38,280 --> 02:37:42,600 that interview. If if you don't if you will 2717 02:37:42,600 --> 02:37:44,670 John C Dvorak: enjoy. That's fine. That's all I got as those 2718 02:37:44,670 --> 02:37:46,980 two because I thought they were meaningful, but yeah, well, he 2719 02:37:46,980 --> 02:37:50,220 was the clips I should have gotten. I didn't get but I just 2720 02:37:50,220 --> 02:37:54,180 couldn't get a good reason I didn't get them. These are the 2721 02:37:54,180 --> 02:37:57,750 clips from the NCAA speech. I have one play NCAA, but the 2722 02:37:57,750 --> 02:38:03,150 NAACP since I have where he's, he's good. He's screaming is 2723 02:38:03,150 --> 02:38:06,600 yelling is like gone nuts. I mean, he's goes crazy. He's one 2724 02:38:06,600 --> 02:38:10,560 of those crazy speeches where he's unhinge, but I found two 2725 02:38:10,590 --> 02:38:13,830 copies of it. And they were too echoey. I wasn't going to run 2726 02:38:13,830 --> 02:38:15,240 them to either. No, there were no 2727 02:38:15,270 --> 02:38:17,730 Adam Curry: there were no good. No good.

Anyway. 2803 02:42:30,090 --> 02:42:33,000 John C Dvorak: The part of the of the deal was no yo KOVITCH 2804 02:42:33,030 --> 02:42:35,100 mediocre the Joker. Part of 2805 02:42:35,100 --> 02:42:37,110 Adam Curry: the deals would have flying taxis. Well, we know 2806 02:42:37,110 --> 02:42:40,500 that's out the flying taxis not happening. Surprise surprise. 2807 02:42:41,190 --> 02:42:44,670 Which means we won't have people dying in these death traps. 2808 02:42:45,630 --> 02:42:50,250 Trust me, trust me. And they're supposed to have all kinds of 2809 02:42:50,250 --> 02:42:52,140 competitions in the sand. 2810 02:42:53,400 --> 02:42:55,590 John C Dvorak: Yeah, this is a classic. This is a good story, 2811 02:42:55,590 --> 02:42:56,520 but the sand 2812 02:42:56,550 --> 02:43:03,060 Adam Curry: is is basically full of poop. And poopy. So to to 2813 02:43:03,060 --> 02:43:07,980 prove to prove that it's not poopy. The mayor took a took a 2814 02:43:08,010 --> 02:43:10,050 swan dive into the sin. 2815 02:43:12,870 --> 02:43:15,900 Unknown: It's the dive into the sin river that Paris's mayor has 2816 02:43:15,900 --> 02:43:17,280 been dreaming about dreaming 2817 02:43:17,280 --> 02:43:18,930 show the water is clean. 2818 02:43:19,050 --> 02:43:26,610 It's amazing. We work a lot and very hard for that. Very lucky 2819 02:43:26,610 --> 02:43:27,570 and happy day. 2820 02:43:28,500 --> 02:43:31,530 Happy because the sin will be the centerpiece of the Paris 2821 02:43:31,530 --> 02:43:35,490 Olympics. In less than two weeks from now. Opening ceremonies 2822 02:43:35,490 --> 02:43:39,060 will be hosted on the river for the first time. But there had 2823 02:43:39,060 --> 02:43:42,360 been concerns about athletes competing in the water. The 2824 02:43:42,360 --> 02:43:46,140 river so polluted swimming in the sin was banned for more than 2825 02:43:46,140 --> 02:43:50,550 a century, with only a third good reason. Determined to make 2826 02:43:50,550 --> 02:43:54,390 it safe again for the Olympics. cleanup efforts began over nine 2827 02:43:54,390 --> 02:43:58,170 years ago, costing one and a half billion dollars. It 2828 02:43:58,170 --> 02:44:02,190 included a giant underground water storage basin, renovating 2829 02:44:02,190 --> 02:44:06,150 sewer lines and treatment plants. Even with all that water 2830 02:44:06,150 --> 02:44:09,390 quality tests last month indicated more than needed to be 2831 02:44:09,390 --> 02:44:14,310 done. We did it we did it we do visual say the latest water 2832 02:44:14,310 --> 02:44:18,480 quality tests show welcomed improvements and Paris is ready 2833 02:44:18,570 --> 02:44:20,070 to let the games begin. 2834 02:44:20,370 --> 02:44:23,370 Adam Curry: Why did they have to do sewage changes? Were they 2835 02:44:23,370 --> 02:44:25,200 dumping the poop in the sand? 2836 02:44:26,100 --> 02:44:29,160 John C Dvorak: Well the coliform cast were always failing now 2837 02:44:29,160 --> 02:44:33,900 there's a it's possible that they they could possibly fix it 2838 02:44:33,900 --> 02:44:37,200 I went to him I was hanging out hanging out 2839 02:44:38,070 --> 02:44:39,330 Adam Curry: I was hanging out in 2840 02:44:40,950 --> 02:44:42,870 John C Dvorak: in Paris in Paris with a guy 2841 02:44:43,830 --> 02:44:44,820 Adam Curry: with a croissant 2842 02:44:45,900 --> 02:44:47,730 John C Dvorak: he said I asked him I said you know what did 2843 02:44:47,730 --> 02:44:50,400 this what do you what would you define definitive French as 2844 02:44:50,400 --> 02:44:54,180 being really good at and I was thinking you know growing 2845 02:44:54,180 --> 02:44:57,270 peaches wine there's all these different things you drink a 2846 02:44:57,270 --> 02:44:59,970 basis crap he says the number one thing that French are great 2847 02:45:00,000 --> 02:45:05,700 that is public works rail designs sewage system to the 2848 02:45:05,700 --> 02:45:08,580 sewers of France all the rest of them and did they do that better 2849 02:45:08,580 --> 02:45:10,920 than anybody else in the world and I've noticed this the first 2850 02:45:10,920 --> 02:45:15,390 time I was over there the roads don't have potholes all over the 2851 02:45:15,390 --> 02:45:16,350 place there's 2852 02:45:16,350 --> 02:45:18,510 Adam Curry: that move to Paris than your freak 2853 02:45:19,680 --> 02:45:24,180 John C Dvorak: so the so I can I can see them possibly being able 2854 02:45:24,180 --> 02:45:29,400 with their public works kind of mentality being really good at 2855 02:45:29,400 --> 02:45:33,510 it maybe cleaning up the sand but that's a big project.

The manufacturer of the beds said they are so 2867 02:46:05,130 --> 02:46:08,520 strong, that's five or six people can jump on them. The 2868 02:46:08,520 --> 02:46:11,790 mattresses of the beds can be customized to enhance sleep 2869 02:46:11,790 --> 02:46:13,050 quality. To 2870 02:46:13,050 --> 02:46:15,090 Adam Curry: the to the floor revealed the recyclable 2871 02:46:15,090 --> 02:46:18,390 cardboard beds that will be helping athletes catch up on 2872 02:46:18,390 --> 02:46:21,750 their beauty sleep during the Summer Games. The beds were 2873 02:46:21,750 --> 02:46:27,180 designed by airwave a Japanese company. Its CEO said cardboard 2874 02:46:27,180 --> 02:46:31,200 beds were initially created in 2021 for the Tokyo Olympic 2875 02:46:31,200 --> 02:46:34,590 Games. He said the beds for Paris Olympics were even 2876 02:46:34,590 --> 02:46:41,850 stronger. Board beds didn't they have that? A couple of years 2877 02:46:41,850 --> 02:46:42,570 back I remember the 2878 02:46:43,470 --> 02:46:46,590 John C Dvorak: previous Olympics but I didn't know that. And it's 2879 02:46:46,590 --> 02:46:51,390 like is that the best you can do? Sleep well on a futon I 2880 02:46:51,690 --> 02:46:54,750 Adam Curry: know the cardboard beds is my understanding is so 2881 02:46:54,750 --> 02:46:57,180 that it discourages sex 2882 02:46:59,160 --> 02:47:00,780 John C Dvorak: I never heard that part of it. Yeah, 2883 02:47:00,810 --> 02:47:02,610 Adam Curry: I think that's I really did you know that there 2884 02:47:02,610 --> 02:47:04,830 was a 4chan poll about us. 2885 02:47:06,180 --> 02:47:07,500 Unknown: About Us Yeah. 2886 02:47:08,550 --> 02:47:10,740 Adam Curry: No agenda guys yay or nay? 2887 02:47:11,550 --> 02:47:14,580 John C Dvorak: We get probably got 4chan we've probably got I 2888 02:47:14,580 --> 02:47:17,340 don't know what we get from I know Reddit would give us a day. 2889 02:47:17,370 --> 02:47:17,880 Well 2890 02:47:17,910 --> 02:47:20,340 Adam Curry: listen to this worth listening to if you have seven 2891 02:47:20,340 --> 02:47:24,810 hours a week to kill. I remember listening to Jhansi Dvorak for 2892 02:47:24,810 --> 02:47:27,480 years related to tech. I did not realize he was involved in 2893 02:47:27,480 --> 02:47:32,160 politics. Yeah, they're pretty good. Although divorce is 2894 02:47:32,160 --> 02:47:35,370 increasingly naive for someone as old as he is who has seen as 2895 02:47:35,370 --> 02:47:38,670 much as he has. He's always giving MFRs the benefit of the 2896 02:47:38,670 --> 02:47:41,970 doubt when it's really really not warranted. He also read 2897 02:47:41,970 --> 02:47:44,670 slash Paul, so that's great. I guess you're in a fourth 2898 02:47:44,670 --> 02:47:55,500 chapter. Then. Adam is a retard. Jhansi Dvorak is the goat. It's 2899 02:47:55,500 --> 02:47:59,190 a shame that it's a shame that tranny made that god awful 2900 02:47:59,190 --> 02:48:03,780 keyboard layout and made it his last name. Wow, 4chan. 2901 02:48:05,040 --> 02:48:06,570 John C Dvorak: real accurate. They're 2902 02:48:06,600 --> 02:48:09,990 Adam Curry: fantastic. Anyway, back to the Queen the queen is 2903 02:48:09,990 --> 02:48:10,320 under 2904 02:48:10,320 --> 02:48:12,690 Unknown: attack. It was five years ago that Ursula von der 2905 02:48:12,690 --> 02:48:15,360 Leyen squeaked her way into the chair as head of the European 2906 02:48:15,360 --> 02:48:18,360 Commission by just a handful of votes. Her attempt to get 2907 02:48:18,360 --> 02:48:22,080 reelected for a second term is likely to be just as close. Two 2908 02:48:22,080 --> 02:48:24,600 weeks ago EU leaders nominated von der Leyen despite and 2909 02:48:24,600 --> 02:48:27,240 occasionally controversial stint in charge of the bloc's 2910 02:48:27,270 --> 02:48:28,200 executive branch, 2911 02:48:28,260 --> 02:48:32,820 I would plain and simply like to express my gratitude to the 2912 02:48:32,820 --> 02:48:35,490 leaders who endorsed my nomination. 2913 02:48:35,880 --> 02:48:38,400 On key dissenting voice, though is Italy's Prime Minister 2914 02:48:38,430 --> 02:48:39,210 Giorgio Maloney 2915 02:48:40,380 --> 02:48:43,770 the leadership proposal from the conservative socialist and 2916 02:48:43,770 --> 02:48:46,860 liberal parties was wrong, partly because there was no 2917 02:48:46,860 --> 02:48:50,340 discussion considered regarding the mandate for these leadership 2918 02:48:50,340 --> 02:48:53,610 nominees. In the wake of European elections, where 2919 02:48:53,610 --> 02:48:56,970 citizens clearly asked for a new direction for the EU. 2920 02:48:58,020 --> 02:49:00,450 Do Maloney is not the only person unhappy with von der 2921 02:49:00,450 --> 02:49:02,970 Leyen and head of Thursday's ballot on whether to confirm her 2922 02:49:02,970 --> 02:49:06,150 for another five years in charge talk has grown about objections 2923 02:49:06,180 --> 02:49:09,660 and opposition to her leadership of the commission. A vital issue 2924 02:49:09,660 --> 02:49:12,570 for some is the question of transparency that was kept on 2925 02:49:12,570 --> 02:49:15,330 Wednesday ahead of the boat by an EU court ruling which 2926 02:49:15,330 --> 02:49:18,780 criticized the Commission's handling of COVID-19 contracts. 2927 02:49:18,960 --> 02:49:22,860 More significant, however, are questions about Ukraine MEPs on 2928 02:49:22,860 --> 02:49:26,010 Wednesday, in fact, a motion reaffirming support for Kyiv at 2929 02:49:26,010 --> 02:49:29,100 a time when Europe appears increasingly divided about the 2930 02:49:29,100 --> 02:49:32,400 war with Russia. That comes less than three weeks after EU 2931 02:49:32,400 --> 02:49:35,070 leaders signed a new security deal with Ukraine. The key 2932 02:49:35,070 --> 02:49:38,010 player is Hungary, which currently holds the EU's 2933 02:49:38,010 --> 02:49:41,310 rotating presidency. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has 2934 02:49:41,310 --> 02:49:44,100 talked about using the position for something he calls peace 2935 02:49:44,100 --> 02:49:48,000 missions. Those include meetings with Ukrainian war critics, like 2936 02:49:48,000 --> 02:49:51,600 China's President Xi Jinping, Donald Trump, and a visit to 2937 02:49:51,600 --> 02:49:52,080 Moscow. 2938 02:49:52,650 --> 02:49:55,260 Adam Curry: And what's the over under Do you think she'll she'll 2939 02:49:55,260 --> 02:49:56,430 stay in? Are they going 2940 02:49:56,610 --> 02:49:59,940 John C Dvorak: according to this morning? She's back. Oh, really? 2941 02:50:00,480 --> 02:50:02,490 Yeah, she's in. Ah, 2942 02:50:02,610 --> 02:50:04,590 Adam Curry: well, I'm happy because we need her for the 2943 02:50:04,590 --> 02:50:06,240 show. She's good for the show. She's 2944 02:50:06,240 --> 02:50:07,080 John C Dvorak: good for the show. 2945 02:50:07,290 --> 02:50:10,410 Adam Curry: And my last clip before we will person she is Oh 2946 02:50:10,410 --> 02:50:13,140 no, she's the worst. She's never been elected by the public to 2947 02:50:13,170 --> 02:50:16,170 anything. She was a failed finance minister for Germany. 2948 02:50:16,170 --> 02:50:20,370 People discarded her. They didn't like her and she totally, 2949 02:50:20,670 --> 02:50:25,080 totally was all in on the backroom deals with Pfizer. 2950 02:50:25,710 --> 02:50:29,490 Yeah, and everyone knows her stage. Everyone must be a lot 2951 02:50:29,490 --> 02:50:33,840 more Pfizer stooges for her to stay in. Yeah, good tribe. 2952 02:50:34,530 --> 02:50:35,910 Maloney are 2953 02:50:35,910 --> 02:50:37,080 John C Dvorak: voices amazing. 2954 02:50:37,920 --> 02:50:43,440 Adam Curry: I'm Georgia Maloney. Texas news, which is also it's 2955 02:50:43,440 --> 02:50:47,400 actually it's a it's no agenda news. It's Texas and California 2956 02:50:47,430 --> 02:50:47,760 living 2957 02:50:47,760 --> 02:50:51,900 Unknown: in capital X and Texas billionaire mogul Elon Musk 2958 02:50:51,930 --> 02:50:55,830 shared on his social media site X, formerly known as Twitter 2959 02:50:55,950 --> 02:50:59,190 that he's had it but California. He plans to move its 2960 02:50:59,190 --> 02:51:03,090 headquarters in that of SpaceX to the Lone Star State. Musk 2961 02:51:03,090 --> 02:51:06,420 explained he decided to make the move after California's governor 2962 02:51:06,420 --> 02:51:10,770 signed into law, a pro LGBTQ plus bill. This 2963 02:51:10,770 --> 02:51:13,470 is the final straw because of this law and the many others 2964 02:51:13,470 --> 02:51:17,190 that preceded it attacking both families and companies. SpaceX 2965 02:51:17,190 --> 02:51:20,250 will now move its headquarters from Hawthorne, California, to 2966 02:51:20,250 --> 02:51:24,210 Starbase, Texas and x's headquarters will move to Austin 2967 02:51:24,600 --> 02:51:27,600 have had enough of dodging gangs of violent drug addicts just to 2968 02:51:27,600 --> 02:51:28,860 get in and out of the building. 2969 02:51:30,120 --> 02:51:33,840 From The California law that asks AI or give schools more 2970 02:51:33,840 --> 02:51:37,260 leeway in regard to informing parents of a child's gender 2971 02:51:37,260 --> 02:51:40,860 choices. It forbids schools from requiring teachers to tell the 2972 02:51:40,860 --> 02:51:44,490 parents of any changes. Elon Musk has long voiced 2973 02:51:44,490 --> 02:51:48,180 inflammatory statements against trans people.

It is a tip from John C. Dvorak as 3246 03:08:33,600 --> 03:08:39,270 we lead you into your weekend. Well, almost weekend. John, what 3247 03:08:39,270 --> 03:08:41,520 kind of tip do you have for us today, 3248 03:08:41,760 --> 03:08:43,890 John C Dvorak: I have a food tip, a food tip. 3249 03:08:43,920 --> 03:08:45,030 Adam Curry: We love our food. 3250 03:08:45,060 --> 03:08:46,350 John C Dvorak: And the only reason I'm going to bring this 3251 03:08:46,350 --> 03:08:48,630 tip up is because every time I go to the store that is the 3252 03:08:48,630 --> 03:08:51,330 situation that occurs and I always have to I have actually 3253 03:08:51,330 --> 03:08:54,630 discussed this with shop fellow shoppers at the grocery store 3254 03:08:54,630 --> 03:08:58,080 and ocean whose and very few people seem to know this simple 3255 03:08:58,080 --> 03:09:04,650 fact. Which is that pineapples are not bananas and they don't 3256 03:09:04,650 --> 03:09:09,420 ripen after they're picked. They stay frozen in time as to the 3257 03:09:09,450 --> 03:09:13,230 ripeness when you buy a pineapple, and for some reason, 3258 03:09:13,230 --> 03:09:16,050 almost nobody knows this. So how do you always think of 3259 03:09:16,050 --> 03:09:20,790 everything is a banana or even all kinds of things ripe and 3260 03:09:20,790 --> 03:09:23,760 after you're picking but not pineapples. So pineapples you 3261 03:09:23,760 --> 03:09:24,120 want to 3262 03:09:24,240 --> 03:09:28,500 Adam Curry: if you go if you go before me, that'll that's that's 3263 03:09:28,500 --> 03:09:32,190 going to be I'm going to put that in my eulogy John taught me 3264 03:09:32,400 --> 03:09:35,850 people think everything's a banana. And that's just not true 3265 03:09:35,850 --> 03:09:36,330 people. 3266 03:09:36,960 --> 03:09:41,010 John C Dvorak: So pie when you buy a pineapple, you want to get 3267 03:09:41,010 --> 03:09:45,840 one that is gold colored not green, but gold colored because 3268 03:09:45,840 --> 03:09:49,530 it is by a green when this all greenish is not going to go 3269 03:09:49,530 --> 03:09:52,650 anywhere. It's going to be sour and kind of like not as sweet as 3270 03:09:52,650 --> 03:09:56,130 it should be. So the things should be solid gold colored. 3271 03:09:56,130 --> 03:09:59,220 You don't find me very often but when you do, they stand out like 3272 03:09:59,220 --> 03:10:02,790 a sore thumb. And that's the one you buy a gold pineapple. And 3273 03:10:02,790 --> 03:10:06,210 when you cut one of those babies open, they're super sweet. The 3274 03:10:06,210 --> 03:10:08,790 core is edible. It's unbelievable how good that 3275 03:10:08,790 --> 03:10:12,240 pineapple is when it's ripe, but it will not ripen. 3276 03:10:14,490 --> 03:10:18,090 Unknown: Good news, it's good advice. John 3277 03:10:18,090 --> 03:10:18,630 says 3278 03:10:20,040 --> 03:10:26,100 Adam Curry: everybody is going to be valuable tip of the day. I 3279 03:10:26,100 --> 03:10:31,080 hit my own tip here, tips too long. And that will conclude our 3280 03:10:31,080 --> 03:10:37,110 broadcast day live from Northern Silicon Valley and the Texas 3281 03:10:37,110 --> 03:10:45,750 Hill Country. Fred. No calls here.
