tasty new weed. Adam curry, John C. Dvorak.
Hey, Sunday April 21 2013. Time for your gizmo nation media
assassination episode 506
This is no agenda
deconstructing mainstream media bullcrap since 2007. From the
traverse high tide out we're so Cummings mofo in Austin, Texas
in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry from
Northern Silicon Valley where it's sunny again. And there are
no SWAT teams at John C. Dvorak.
Good try to try
and see you're still kind of
like you do. Oh,
I can the middle level, will you? Okay, let me some level
talk for a moment.
Let me take. Let me pull this just talking to the microphone
that would help. I'm talking into what do you think I'm
talking when you go and like what do you what do you mean?
You're telling me you're on the chaise lounge again?
I'm on the chaise lounge and you're in Houma and Anthony, for
the 20th time. It's a fascinating tale
in the New York Times. Yeah, again,
just to sit was sitting on its desk. Okay. All right.
Well, in the morning to you John C. Dvorak,
Martin you Adam curry in the morning all ships at sea boots
on the ground feet in the air shoves in the water and all the
days and nights out there
and in the morning to the chat room who are standing by as
always Human Resources their depleting their $9.2 million
value add no agenda stream.com no agenda chat.net wasn't
someone who wrote us a note that they were in a meeting at their
at the at their office and someone said boots on the ground
and he instinctively like in a Pavlovian manner said feet in
the air. Yeah, everyone went
dude probably you okay? But you mean what do you mean feet in
the air man? Yeah. Well
so what happened is we gained rank
and I'm so Keystone Cops if it had worked oh my god if I swear
to God,
right 1000 cops take down kid right here in
my notes. I have keystone cops. I literally have keystone cops
in my notes. You know, I I've spent ever since we got off the
air on Thursday. I have been emailing, talking, actually had
in my home. People who you know, understand how these things
work. Three letter agencies trying to piece together this
complete nonsensical story that is being bullcrap throughout the
ether. And I think I think I have some reasonable theories on
what happened here. And I'm just wondering if I should in no more
I've
got to get the perfect clip to set this up. Thank you. Good,
good, good good, which is the rundown clip, which was it was
just couldn't believe this clip is obviously somebody produced
in I think they pass around to a lot of local stations. But it
was the complete rundown of all the all the activity from well,
once they once they figure out who it was and their escape
attempt, and to the right to the finish, and it's loaded with all
kinds of embellishments and sound effects,
sound effects and
this sounds great.
I take it this is the blow by blow report.
Exactly. Back to you.
Right Vinita Thank you. Well, the man on ended about 27 hours
after the FBI released the suspects photos here's a closer
look at how it all went down closer to chaos began late last
night police called to a shooting on the MIT campus.
University Police Officer Sean Collier was ambushed in his
patrol car and killed at 1130 Boston time police say the
brothers carjacked a man a few blocks away in Cambridge they
told the driver they were the Marathon bombers
Whoa, hey, and heard that let me know let me show you my calling
card here. It's a marathon bomber. Oh cool. All right.
Where do you want to go half hour
later they released the man unharmed at a gas station where
surveillance which
is so in line with what Pete you know they just killed all these
people. Of like what we're letting you go. Don't worry
about
broke camera captured this image of Joe car. Police caught up to
the stolen car around 1am Then a running gun battle explosives
thrown from the car. Between houses out here. Then it got
worse. Police say Tamra Lin approached them with a pressure
cooker bomb but it melts function
more than 200 rounds of ammunition are exchanged.
Richard Donahue was shot and critically wounded Tamlyn Sanaya
of dead.
Oh, wow. So of course, the officer I'm sure was shot by
these 200 rounds that were flying
by shot by friendly fire. Oh
my goodness. Oh my goodness, this is so that's good. That is
a that's a great clip. And it's just yeah, I mean, we could have
produced that too, by the way. That's pretty good. You get Is
there any more to it? No, that's it. It ended with it seems like
there shouldn't be more but there was
actually it ended with them with a funny because I must have
missed clipped, which I've done. It ends with the with more sound
effects. And then the cheering crowds.
Oh, wait a minute, how can this be? Let me just I'll just double
check and make sure that I didn't like somehow cut it off.
Well, so well. Okay, Mom looking for that. First of all. I mean,
so I've heard at least four times this this young kid's name
be mispronounced or maybe correctly pronounce his Dzhokhar
Joker. He has Joker Joker in naturalized citizen on September
11 2012. explosion at 666 Boylston Street in Boston,
please. You're insulting me now. Missed that one. You're really
insulting me with all of this stuff. Now, here so I think I
shouldn't I of course, I have some clips. Because regardless
of what happened here, everyone's taking advantage of
it. What is no longer working is the, you know, the idea that
this shouldn't that should have been like, or it appears a lot
of people are very disappointed in the media, that it was not
like a white dude, with a cowboy hat with a confederate flag. You
know, good old boy and a pickup truck, you know, waiting to blow
up some people because you know, we got a black man in the White
House. And I hit Texas. I
hate that we're missing that meme. So so that
didn't pan out that that obviously a lot of people very
disappointed about that. But of course, we have no motive. This
is this is the big hole. And I knew that that it was all messed
up. And it was kind of after we finished the show on Thursday,
where the FBI says okay, here, we've got pictures they have
that. They pull the the, I find that really funny. By the way. I
don't know if you saw the press conference to the FBI does a
press conference. Everyone's waiting. It's supposed to be at
five and it's like 505 10 past five, and there's two easels and
on the easels, of course, they have a picture of suspect bomber
one and bomber two, Barack Obama. And I'm I'm blown away
that there's all this media sitting there, seeing clearly
the draped easels. I mean, if you're like a real journalist,
you go up there, you pull off the frickin thing and take a
look what's behind the easel and was like, No, we'll just wait.
We'll wait Whoa, it's 10 more minutes
wait, patiently wait patiently until wait. So they can spoon
feed is whatever it is, they're going to spoon feed us. And so
when
they, when they released this, these pictures, what was
blatantly missing from a real man hunt description is
approximate height. You know, what the, you know what kind of
creed or race, you know, these actors appear to have? Or to be
none of that there was none of that. And it's like, watch this
video. Well, yeah. And then, you know, for like, hours after that
everyone on television is like, you know, just like, well, look
at this. Oh, he looks like he has a limp. Always bow legged.
Yeah, everyone's like Dick Tracy now. I'm sorry. NCIS. Um, so But
clearly, they knew who this was. And when you lock down a city,
which, you know, this is not the governor or the mayor doesn't
like, just lock down the city. This has to come from the feds.
That privilege bi Yeah, that that pretty much only happens
when you know exactly who you're going after. And you pretty much
know where what this guy's going to do or where he's going to be.
I mean, a lockdown of a city is that's a huge deal,
which I love. Apparently, according to Richard Clarke, or
as our seemingly inebriated friend revealed some monetary
amount you might want to play this clip,
because watching that podium awaiting the president, a
sentence from you, Dick Clark, after that press conference.
Well,
I'm so happy that it turned out this way. And we do have to
admit here that two individuals just two individuals did
terrorize a great metropolitan area and to real horrified a lot
of people who are pinned down in their houses today and did cause
enormous amount of damage and financial damage as well when
estimate of $350 million lost today because Boston was pinned
down. The purpose of terrorism Lenin said was to terrorize.
They certainly did that.
It's funny because I saw reports 333 million.
I think if anyone's gonna drop the meme out, that would be him.
Yeah. But you know, this was right. You know, this guy.
Yeah. declerck Sure. Yeah. Dick Clark dick.
But But I read 333 million. That's what the headline was, I
would thought he was gonna say 333. But he said, 350
Whatever the case is, whether it was a coder, and we already got
to code 33 all over the place. But it was some great amount of
money because you can't shut down a city like this. So
essentially, these kids one kid. Yeah. And by the way, while
we're on the topic, talking about terrorists, what about the
Mexican Mafia, that M five group and all these these gangs that
are all over the place that they're during this episode,
where they're tracking down this one kid, two innocent children
were shot dead in Richmond, they didn't shut down Richmond, they
know they're probably only going to try to catch this guy. I
mean, this whole thing is so weird, because it's like it's
like theater on the highest order while people are actually
being terrorized by the Mexican gangs in California and
elsewhere and the meth lab people and all the rest of it.
Nobody says anything about that. But you got this these two
boneheads, you know, that were the whole thing is just lame,
and then they shut down Boston, they shut down new town. It's
just it's it was for two guys that were easily caught
apparently, shot in the car. I don't know how the other guy
got.
Let me get let me give you my theory. And then we can kind of
back into that. And there is a part of the theory that I
mentioned before, that I'm just going to hold on to, which is a
placeholder. But it appears to me and I've discussed this with
the with several several producers of the show who tend
to agree that GW also are having trouble piecing a lot of this
together. I don't have anyone saying, Oh, this is exactly what
happened. It seems like we had two operations cross each other
by really weird coincidence. So just bear with me, John, on the
on on the first part of this. So I think that based upon the
timing, it was six weeks, we already call that the FBI needed
to do something. And they needed, you know, it was time
again for them to show their relevance. And what a great
opportunity to do this at the at the Boston Marathon. And so
that's why they had all kinds of, you know, in the head bombs,
sniffer dogs, they had the drill, you always want to have a
drill to show that you're prepared. Right? Whenever
something happens, and, and it literally this was not supposed
to, there was no explosives we're supposed to go off. And it
is my belief that the actors that were brought into this,
we're probably working for yet a third party. If you look at FBI,
CIA and the third party, let's just just indulge me and go
along with my theory, that maybe this was from an administrative
from the administration. You know, what was in the news just
before this happened, it was North Korea, North Korea, North
Korea, North Korea, North Korea, which apparently is no longer a
threat, by the way, no matter what's happening, North Korea is
gone. And I said, initially, I said I think you're going to
find out that these were North Koreans, it was like a North
Korean setup. They were supposed to blow something up, but it
wasn't going to happen. The FBI was going to thwart that. So it
wasn't going to be the thing southern white dude with a
confederate flag, but it would be North Koreans. FBI was going
to say, Oh, we caught them. And that was going to be the impetus
to obviously do something more interesting with North Korea,
and maybe do something with gunpowder. But what happened is
these operatives actually and it was supposed to happen at five
o'clock this this I heard from multiple sources, the exposure
was supposed to go off at five in time for the six o'clock news
cycle instead and Wall Street knew something and whenever like
911 Wall Street always knows and there's all kinds of crazy short
selling every day everything is dropping the markets crashing
they know something's gonna happen. That's that's what the
markets do when they're aware of something. And that just becomes
a self fulfilling prophecy. These guys turn that's why I'm
saying North Korea. They want to go back to North Korea as heroes
so they actually light these things off, which is why they
were so pansy because yeah, there were supposed to be
pressure cookers. There was some actual explosive gunpowder
material inside but they really were very poor bombs if you
really want to have some mayhem and mass destruction, and also,
why set them off, you know, at the finish line, why not do it
at the starting line, you know, and there's lots of people and
celebrities and all kinds of media is really aware at that
time. So that was not supposed to happen. But at the same time,
the CIA has these two, these two brothers and I think that these
these brothers, were working in conjunction with let's just call
the CIA to make it easy to destabilize Russia. And this is
what Chechnya is, you know, there's this long term feud. And
there are absolute militants trying to destabilize Russia,
which is agreed to a lot of CIA help. And they were doing an
exchange. I think what happened is, in crowded places, these
kids were bringing gunpowder and gun making and bomb making
materials dropping in a trash bag, and then taking another
backpack out, which would be a completed bomb, and then
shipping that off to Chechnya. So they would just, it was just
like the cross signals, they were dropping something in it in
a trash can, which you'll recall was the initial report as the
trashcan exploded. And so they so they're taking some something
back, they're unaware of anything that's going on, bombs
go off, they think, oh my God, that's our bombs that we were
supposed to be shipping off, or we're supposed to be getting
picking up. And they freak out. Of course, all of their contacts
go silent. So they think that everyone's after them, but it's
their bombs that exploded, and not some other Patsy crap that
was set up by the FBI. And that's where all the confusion
ensued. So that Nadella did just like off and running. And you
know, I don't think that turns out the whole 711 thing was not
then not true. But they basically just got silenced,
just completely obliterated. And they're being blamed for this,
which is the big cover up of the whole debacle that took place.
Well, a couple of problems with this theory. One, I think is
something of a stretch that we have to that somebody is going
to be shipping bombs from the US to Chechnya, when they can build
their own bombs locally, or they can get it from the Middle East
or they can pick up some you know, they can get somebody from
by your Iraq to do it. I mean, that that makes zero sense to me
that they would be doing it especially a dead drop in a in a
garbage can, if it were that was which will all these people
around. So I think that's nuts. As for the North Korea thing, I
think that you're you've been projecting this idea for a
while. But there's a little piece little tidbit. I think
I've got it here on the clip list. A little tidbit you may or
may not be aware of but the North Korea thing went silent.
But we did a little interesting kind of a apparently a warning
of sorts that I think got the North Koreans all jittery and
then they just shut up, replayed the interesting North Korean
situation and tell me if there's something in here you've never
heard of.
So 1000s of people would die. There was no question about who
would prevail in this conflict. And there's no question today. I
think we're even more capable than we were back then. But that
was the image to me as a way of sending a very blunt message to
the North Koreans about what us options were, I thought perhaps
it was a helpful thing to have said at the time. And I think
the the B 52 and b two flyovers the other day sent a very
similar message.
The flyovers you mean,
you know about the beach who flyovers? Well, I knew
that they did that they were flying V 50. twos, but I didn't
know they did fly overs over North Korea. I know that they
were they were flying around South Korea, but I didn't know
that flew over North Korea.
They did this obvious and they did Korea started to change
everything when they did this. I mean, you can get a B two they
say if you do enough research and kind of get Yeah, they
supposedly were flying over South Korea, but the beach who
can get in and out of anywhere because it's still so they can
fly it in and then blow it up, fly it over pin young and then
write blast out of there and then say you this is what you're
going to be dealing with if you keep saber rattling and then the
whole thing very slowly quiet.
No, that's not true, because maybe the actual situation
quieted down, but not the media. This was full tilt full on North
Korea until this happened there was North Korea and the gun
vote. And those were the only two things dominating the US
mainstream media. And we were even laughing about it continue.
They got the somersaulting North Korea guy, we got the missiles
who got the marching in the street that continued that was
not stopping. That was not stopping. And maybe my theory is
it's obviously not complete and uh is obviously just a theory.
But it really feels to me just looking at the explosion at the
minimal damage, quote unquote, that that it did. And how these
these kids were doing something else they were they were mixed
up with a different they were there wrong time wrong place.
And they were complicit in something. But the FBI with
their their warnings, their drill, the new like mass
casualty FEMA app was being tested. The Boston police said
we're going to do a controlled detonation across from the
library at one o'clock in the afternoon, which was two hours
before this happened. And if you look at the public library, not
the JFK Library, which I think was thrown in there for
distraction, the public library is literally across the street
from explosion number two. So they were planning some kind of
something which went wrong for some reason it went off. And and
they had to cover that up. And I think these two kids were
clearly used to cover it up.
Well, I'm not saying that there just wasn't a you know, I mean,
I made the agreement that this was something fishy about the
whole thing. I'm just not absolutely convinced about
you're seeing it so complicated as the have, you know, bombs
good go cross border exportation of shitty bombs, these things
weren't even very good. That's
that's that firecrackers that? They were firecrackers. They
were firecrackers. Right. They
were made with the well, let me let me just say this not really
much of a bomb. No, not at
all. Let me
by the way, by the way, just as an aside, did you see this just
ahead of the State Police Colonel sup my brother? He's
always a colonel. He's got actually he has she has the the
birds on the shoulder. Man. He's got this droopy hat. No, I
didn't see him. Oh, my God.
I stay away from all that. I mean, the only thing I
got is currently is Colonel our colonel. And he's always got his
mouth open. It looks like the dumbest guy in history. He's got
a regular cops hat. But on top of the cops hat. Oh, yes. I have
seen Yeah, yeah, that is flopping down on top of the hat.
Yeah, I have seen it I don't think I've ever seen.
Well, it's Boston is Boston, they're a little different up
there. So taking this into account, I have a couple clips,
though taking into account that it feels like to ops got mixed
up, you know, like or something, something crossed wires. And
clearly the FBI, we you know, we rock we, you know, we took care
of everything we saved the day didn't pan out the way it was
supposed to. So here's, I like the CIA guy that that's on the
piers, more on show the Bob Baer. I like him because he's so
out of the loop. But he does have an analytical mind. Not out
of the loop. He
looks like a mean guy
appear. So I'd like to go back and say, I don't like the smell
of this thing. These guys stand around. I've trained so many
people in situations, not bombings, but like this.
And so you have you've trained people to do pressure cooker
bombs, you told us so yourself. Something
always goes wrong. You know, Jimmy, he knows how to make
these things. But when if you take amateurs and you have them
put a bomb together, they make mistakes, especially when
revolve the remote. So what does that tell you about heart? It
tells me somebody had some practice here and somebody a
case the area I mean, I wouldn't send somebody in a backpack into
a police controlled area, not sending in somebody first to
call out say they're not checking backpacks, they
probably stuck around to pick up the backpack if it didn't go
off. These were cool customers. And you know, the question is,
are there more of them out there? Whether it's domestic or
foreign? And you know, I just don't know. But the more I hear
about this, the less I like it, this this guy's didn't just get
lucky.
So he's, he's uninformed. But he does realize that you know,
maybe there was an exchange drop off, something else is going on.
I kind of liked that, that he's saying that. But clearly, the
FBI is getting all the blame, particularly from ABC, as we
know, ABC is the direct spokes tube from the White House. And,
of course, the way that they've played it the way this has been
presented, the FBI had Robert Muller should resign immediately
because they failed. If you believe in the entire security
state of the United States of Gitmo. The FBI really messed up
and boy, are they getting the full the full blast from ABC
and now to the suspects. There are some New details tonight
about who they are also some new questions about what exactly the
older brother was doing on a six month trip to Russia, and why
the FBI investigated him two years ago and then cleared him.
ABC senior justice correspondent Pierre Thomas has been on that
angle all day, Pierre. Good evening to you.
Good evening, Dan with the manhunt. Now Over the FBI is
looking for a motive behind the bombings. Yes. Was anyone else
involved? Where did they get that training? Immigrants from
the Russian caucuses, two brothers came with their parents
to the US as children seeking refugee status. They thrived
attending top Boston schools, older brother tampilan 26, star
athlete, Golden Glove boxer pianist.
I love the PNS part. Sounds like your typical guy is gonna blow
up some people good
brother Joe hard 19 had just become a US citizen. Ironically,
on September 11 of last year. Once a lifeguard, he was an all
state wrestler and college student. I certainly
can't put it together that he was a person firing a weapon and
potentially killing people.
Last night the FBI acknowledged and interviewed Tamil on in
2011. Based on a tip from the Russians. The Russians said he
was a radical Islamist preparing to leave the US possibly for a
trip to the caucuses. After looking into timelines, phone
records, websites he visited and Associates, the FBI found no
ties to terrorists by law FBI official said monitoring had to
stop barring new negative information
for many people in this country just like him that are touching
extremists websites that are espousing things that aren't
particularly kind to Americans. But that's not against the law
here.
His father said his sons couldn't have planned the
attack, because they knew the FBI was watching them. But they
apparently were not. And never knew that a dark side of the two
brothers had begun to emerge. So
all fingers are clearly pointing towards the FBI having messed
this up. So you know, they're gonna have to deal with that one
way or the other.
And there's just so I think they're gonna have to kill
Joker.
Oh, no, the guy. He's a goner. He's dead on I'm sorry. This kid
is dead. Forget about it. You know, it's like he has a throat
injury, therefore they can't. You can't talk. So they can't
question. Here's this. This is yeah, here's, I swear to God. So
this is broth. And he was in this is. I mean, I was this is
like the funniest clip. You know, it taking into account
that it's not really funny when people get blown up. But this is
Rolf sitting with the I think the the chief of police and the
mayor, and I think is chief of police. And he's asking the
stupidest, stupidest questions. Even if you don't know what a
flashbang is just the way he asked the questions. Broth
Blitzer should be dragged behind the motorcycle through the
streets of Boston. This guy's an idiot, sure
that everybody's was safe in the neighborhood. And eventually, we
had to use some flashbangs to render the sub subjects. It just
allowed compression that would stun somebody for a short period
of time. And then we began negotiations, it slowly over a
1520 minute period, we were able to get him to stand up and show
us that he didn't have a device on it. So
he's lying in this boat. He's been there for several hours.
He's wounded clearly, right? He's
bleeding, right?
He's obviously weak. You come over there. And what do you say
to him? You have a bullhorn and you start saying come up with
your hands up.
No, that's in the Westerns both
we have we have a negotiator was actually on the second floor of
the house looking down at the boat. But when we know we
couldn't see there was a plastic tarp over them we but we could
have
not okay so you could see him broke knows exactly what's going
on. But he had he treats his like the viewers are complete
ADA.
We had the state police helicopter that could tell us
when there was movement in the boat by the heat sensor. So we
could tell he was alive and moving. As we began to
negotiations that way, and in over over a long period of time,
we were able to finally get him to surrender
reporters on the scene. heard like a volley of gunshots going
off, maybe two dozen or so who was firing those guns.
Do his back and forth when we were seeing firing it my
understanding. Yes. I'm pretty sure it was firing from the
boat. Right? Right. And it was through the plastic. They saw
Him poking. Oh, he's poking you poking something through the
plastic, if you will of the boat, and then gunfire
so these cops probably ruin this guy's boat. Oh, it's completely
obliterated. There's already people trying to raise money for
the hero who who found him in the boat to buy him a new boat.
And you say they had sophisticated vision equipment
from a helicopter Oh yeah, sophisticated
vision equipment called a camera because seeing through the
through the boat cover X ray vision we've got fur if you will
to see what there was movement underneath, right?
We knew it was a we knew there was a body in That boat through
the state police helicopter
that could have been above sleeping there. But we decided
just to obliterate them no matter what it was he
it's heat seeking. So he has a higher body temperature on the
boat, which we can tell. And every time he moved, we could
see that on the
way. So of course, this kid is dying. He's, you know, and they
really just want them to bleed out because they just want to
find him dead. And one of the CNN experts taught me a new
word.
My concern is whether or not this young man and 19 year old
took maybe a couple of rounds as a lot of bullets went into that
car and into his brother. I don't see how he escaped with
having none. And I just wonder if he's going to nest someplace
and sanguine ated. That would be a concern of mine. I have to say
I
examinate.
Actually, if you watch some of that show that's been used a lot
on the television.
I've never heard this word before. examinate which just
shows you how insane these guys are. You know what things
exactly? Lead out? Yeah, did literally means to bleed out.
But I guess it's a pretty word for bleeding out examinate. So
taking advantage of this is, of course, Peter King, who we
played on Thursday, he's like, this is actually a good thing.
It's good because we can get more money for the police state.
So he's on CNN. And of course, we had this mother calling. And
his mother calls in and says this is impossible, you know,
there's no way this could happen. Mr. Oil, actually, who
speaks fluent Russian, said that he listened to her tell her
story on Russian television in Russia. And he said it was
uncanny. It was word for word, exactly the same story she she's
been spouting on CNN and other other news outlets, meaning that
she's reading from a script. by Blizzard he says, Adam, I could
have played them side by side word for word, the exact same
sentence structures everything to say and it's two different
languages. But Peter King, he really this guy really, really,
really takes the prize when it comes to politicizing anything
like this.
On right now with a surviving suspect in the Boston Marathon
terrorist attacks now we're hearing for the first time from
his mother.
It's impossible, impossible for them for both of them to do such
things. So I am really, really really, really telling that this
is a set up. My son would tell me my son never would keep it in
secret. So I would know who ever would be to you know, knowing
that anyone who would know it would be neat. He would never He
would never hide it for me. He will tell me about but never,
never ever even award.
I love how they open the mic on Peter King anticipating is
coming and when you hear when you listen to the audio, these
things it's pretty cool to hear how shitty they are at
production at CNN.
My youngest one was raised, actually, like raised from from
80 years old. He was raised in America and my oldest son, he is
really, really properly raised and in our house, never. Nobody
talks about the terrorism. It my son Tom Iran really got involved
in religion. You know, like, I really didn't religious politics
five years ago. So he started following his own really, really
religious accept and he never He never told me that he would be
like on the side of jihad. He was controlled by FBI like for
five years. They knew what my son was doing. They knew what
actions and what the sights on internet he was going How could
this happen? How could be they were controlling
everything. I'm sorry this is longer than I thought it was. I
just want to get to Peter King. Okay, but this is a Ford
as the mother of the suspects in the Boston Marathon terrorist
attacks Jowhar, nosedive and timer Ilan czar naive she was
pleading that they she did not believe the charges against we
have also confirmed that the suspects father was questioned
by Russian security forces. But he has been released. I want to
bring back Congressman Peter King for his reaction to this
Congressman King, obviously parents like to believe the best
about their children. Is there anything that the mother said
that surprises you?
Well, I don't find any of it to be true. And I think it would be
better and again, impossible. This can't be true, must be
traumatic for the mother and the father. But again, to be seen
the FBI set them up for the FBI control and is just absolutely
wrong. And it's really offensive. And here's a country
that gave them sanctuary gave them asylum and knighted states
and to Bay.
We gave you asylum we gave you a country. How can you say this
about our FBI who set up patsies every state twigs
turn against the country like this. It's bad enough with his
son's dead for the parents to attack the country to he is
wrong. I also wonder about his father who, in fact, to Russia,
risotto Chechnya to for medical condition. I don't know why
anyone would leave Boston, who says the best hospitals in the
world?
Cuz you can't afford it? Maybe I don't know. Why would you want
to leave Boston? I mean, that sounds like nuts to go back to
Russia, because it makes no sense for
them to be lashing out at the United States. I don't blame
them for saying good things about their sons, even though
you know, they're murderers. But at least that yeah, that'd be
your parents compassion. But hey, thanks.
Thanks for pointing that out there Peter to be listening.
without trial, yeah. Oh, yeah, of
course stage. It's what the United States did for them. And
the opportunities that the United States gave to their sons
is really going
up. And He's almost done. It's almost done. This is the guy
though. You got to watch him
watch too much too far. And I just find it really wrong.
Congressman King, the mother seemed to be suggesting that the
FBI knew about her son's before this week. Do you know anything
about what she's talking about? Were they on the radar of law
enforcement in any way?
No, I'm not aware of that at all. I have not heard that. I
mean, it's, it's always possible for somebody to be on a list
somewhere, but I'm not aware of that. And I can assure you that
there was absolutely no issue of control. No issue of
so right now he's admitting it, meaning that they that they were
under FBI surveillance
anyway, FBI knowing this was going to happen or happened. So
even again, I see no basis at all. You know what she's saying?
None whatsoever.
Now shoot him there.
He's just a blowhard that guy, but the show what do you think
about this? I mean, I there's some something going on, because
this is a botch. And I actually would be inclined, if somebody
had some evidence, I would be inclined to believe that both
these guys especially the older brother, were actually
recruited by
the FBI or CIA, possibly, but yeah, okay, one of
the two, or anybody who I mean, it's God knows what's out there.
And that would, was why the one brother was turning to the
religion so much, because that would be what you want him to do
you want him to get in? Do you want him to be an insider? Yes,
they were managing his YouTube account. And so the whole thing
was, because the FBI has done this over and over again. And
then of course, they have two approaches. One they either use
them as an informant inside an organization if the guy's smart,
and both these kids are you know, one was at Dartmouth there
weren't stupid one played the piano. And so they would they
would normally use these guys as inside informants it especially
if they can get them into into a good mosque. Or if the guys are
idiots, which happens most of the time, they have them you
know, push out the dial a phone number and pretend to blow up
the Bank of America and nothing happens and they throw him in
jail. So that's your choices. So you go up to one of these kids
say, here's what's going to happen. You're going to work for
us and here's what you're going to do. You're either going to do
this or we're going to set you up and we're going to throw you
in jail and we'll kill your mother. Yeah, we will kill your
mother. Yeah. And so they so I would suspect that would be more
likely but now that Dennis showed they had to kill these
kids. So they killed the one the other one can't talk and there
he's not he's gonna die he's gonna Donner and it's gonna be a
sad day for you know every all is terrible, but we try we try
we captured him alive. Yeah, just bullet holes ever in him.
So I have one final clip which is kind of MSNBC wrapping it all
up. And it's it's this is their executive director of like, he's
the top dog in the news organization. He's so he's so
happy. He's got a big smile on his face because they put him on
30 Rock before it
before you do that. I do I want to since we're before we wrap I
do want to get a couple of Sharpton was on MSNBC. Lovely,
lovely. And I just want to make sure that we recognize the fact
that this guy is actually working for MSNBC. He's an NBC
employee. And if you play Sharpton reports when you get a
feeling for the high quality of those into these are
sharpened reports one.
Priority say the surviving suspect may be armed with
explosives. Even a suicide vest he may also be injured. Some
reports say police tracked him during the man hunt by His blood
trail. His uncle spoke out today. I say Jehan, if you're
alive,
turn yourself in and ask
for forgiveness says no real conflict.
So the main thing is this guy there's just a Uncle I had the
clip and then I accidentally erased it which was the where he
goes they're losers. Yeah. Losers they're losers. But the
other one I want to get out of the way then I won't have to
worry about letting these things hanging out to dry linger. So we
had didn't you build a wrap this up but I just wanted to another
aside. We had a situation on all the morning shows where they
were they're shaken up the groups. You know, Lauer is like
under attack and they're over on the CBS show which is always the
third rate one, they fired one of their anchors Erica Hill. Now
I worked with Erika because she was over at Tech TV and I know
her and you know, she was she was a fine morning anchor
making. I don't know how many millions she was making. But she
she quit CBS and went to work for NBC. And then I guess they
just marginalized the poor woman. And and you know, the
kind of the pecking order they for during this episode of this
track down these two guys. They made her a stand up.
Wait. They brought her back as a freelance to be on the street.
Yeah, after they. After they fired her.
She went to work for NBC and she was going to end up doing the
today's show on the weekends. Oh, right. Right. Right. And but
meanwhile they they keep keep. They gave her a job as a stand
up. So here she is. And then she did she do make it even more
insulting to the woman. She's on the Sharpton show. Oh
God.
So he introduced her. She's out in the street. And the cops are
yelling and screaming in the background. They don't even have
her miked. You can tell she moves around. She's on the
shotgun. Oh my gosh.
Let's go to NBCs Erica Hill, who's now live in Watertown,
Massachusetts. Erica, we understand that some commotion
going on.
Yeah, definitely a little bit of commotion, what we saw here in
just the past. Here behind they are they're getting people to
clear the roads that more vehicles can come through, we
saw what appeared to me three SWAT vehicles, which have been
in this road that the just off my right shoulder for some
period of time, right after we finish that person. They just
killed out,
you know, your career is not going well. And this happens
when there is increased traffic, as you can see now.
Right there, she almost gets hit by car. Oh, wow, cars. And so
I saw Erin Burnett, and who I think at some point was drunk.
But I think it makes no sense to play the audio. But I think
someone walked by and pinched her but because she doesn't, she
does one of those. And she looks really angry and annoyed because
he was talking while this is taking place. I think someone
Gustavo it was very, very funny. And a lot of these because this
was again, it was not a controlled situation. This is
not your, your typical script, your your your typical setup. So
they were really they had to fly by the seat of their pants. You
know, this is not the way it's it's normally it's all
orchestrated. There's a place for
the past. Because I think you were correct. The bombs weren't
meant to go on. Yeah.
So here's MSNBC, wrapping it up. The executive news director
again, He's really He's like, he's jizzing all over himself.
Because last night 30 Rock asked him to be on to explain. So he's
moved up that's from cable to network is a big deal. So he's
really excited. But this thing's coming out of his mouth. About
the celebratory jihadist websites
what what show this was on the 30 rock is not the name of the
show. No, no, no, the Brian Williams Show him what
I'm showing you but this is him on MSNBC. But he's really good
because he's been like, you know, the guy to go on network
and you know, because because he's the expert now. So he's
received some briefing, but listen to him describe how
people are talking the jihadists Okay, so he apparently has
access to he knows where to look. And he's got access to
jihadist chat rooms which have special code. No, he knows
special code.
I swear to God, it's got a password. Yeah,
he's got a password. It sounds like he's talking about our chat
room. I swear to God, listen,
let's get more on the suspects international lengths. To do
that. I'm joined here in studio by NBC News Chief foreign
correspondent Richard Engel with a big welcome to witches. We're
glad to hear
you know him and going.
We've talked about him before he is their number one. He Yeah, we
he's pretty funny. He's been he dramatizes stuff. Yeah,
your extended Rock Center. He was on Rock Center. That's what
I just Rock Center. Here we go.
I love what you said on Rock Center last night. Fascinating
about how
this is what you do when you're in cable. Right? When you're
down low on the rung. You're like, man, you are so great. I
love your work, man. It was so great last night, just hoping
this woman is saying this to him just hoping that she'll be in
his good graces when he because he's clearly rising. When he
moves up to network that he'll like the she can be sucked
along. Long in his wake, and Mike, am I right?
I think you're generally right angles been around for a while
so I don't know that he's rising
aspects to international lengths to do that. I'm joined here in
studio by NBC News Chief foreign correspondent Richard angle with
a big welcome to you are to be glad you're here. I loved what
you said on Rock Center last night fascinating about how this
is all sparked so much on terrorists. Websites talk about
that. Okay, talk
about that. Now let's listen.
Well, all day yesterday, while the city of Boston was
surrounded was covered with police and they were sweeping
house to house. There are jihadi chat forums. These are chat
rooms, sometimes they're password protected. Other times
you just need to know where they are.
Because I'm so cool. I'm angle.
And there are a lot of al Qaeda sympathizers. People who pay
attention chatroom, believe in the cause, believe the United
States is on a crusade against Islam. And they were very much
celebrating what was going on in Boston, because they were filled
with statements like liquid what the United States government is
spending a lot of the millions of dollars on security that are
being wasted. Look at the people who are being locked into their
homes and are cowering in fear.
This is this is our chat room. John, this is not jihadi
websites is our chat room says these things
cowering.
And the general consensus was that the this these two brothers
were more or less lone wolves that they weren't part of a
major organization that there was not a group in Chechnya that
deployed them and sent them as a sleeper sleeper cell and then
push the button to activate them. They were people who are
self inspired by the cause. The cause and these jihadi chat
rooms were rough that was great and judging other people to do
the same. follow their example. And, and then on Rock Center. I
what I mentioned to Brian last night is
Brian I just said, Brian, I have a hey, Bri. Bri, let me tell you
this, what
was really important was when this was all finished, there was
a spontaneous applause and the people came out of their houses.
This, by the way, was fantastic. Somehow, everybody who was
locked in their doors, went out to Kmart and bought flags,
because they knew they would come in handy when they were
there to wave the heroes of SWAT teams and give them a standing
ovation waving their little flags. Do
you see some of those? They had these guys rolling in and they
said armored cars and Humvees and the whole thing there Oh, my
favorite one was this which got me to the Keystone cop meme was
this one big giant square boxy looking thing with guys hanging
off of it all around that's the label it looked like a Jitney
from Indonesia filled with a bunch of peasants hanging on for
dear life of a Smokey Joe and these they're all there girl and
military guard with all kinds of
that's your police member when when I was growing up my mom
always said you know if you get lost or if the if you're if
there's something wrong you can always go to a police officer
and ask them for help and that's what the police officers for but
you know, that guy is now you know, dressed in full combat
fatigues with with a fully automatic assault weapon
camo camo
and he's driving a tank a tank I tell you our police this is the
Easter egg come to us with this country has come to an arm it
just ridiculous police state. So then there's the other group
that the guys that are sitting ducks because they're wearing
this dayglo green. Like if there was a sniper around you could
pick these guys off like like ducks.
Hey, and who who who's black hawk or was that? Is that the
police? Do they have those too? Or is that the military? I mean,
who's flying the Blackhawk
said what they never said who's
just like oh, they're the Blackhawk landing. Yeah. It's
Blackhawk
Boston police Newton, Newtown police. State police and and the
sheriff. I like the
I like the MS. Small Biz says camouflage works really well in
the city. That's a great point.
Urban camo,
what is not urban camo it's friggin desert camo.
That's what they were wearing. No actually they weren't wearing
desert camo they were wearing the
jungle jungle camo.
Most of them.
I'm sorry you cut out what were you saying? We're wearing urban
camo most of them look like the jungle, computerized looking
thing. It doesn't do anything. It makes you look like a weirdo.
But that's what they were
in. Let me finish up this wonderful 20 seconds left on
angle
and they weren't terrorized and they looked very relaxed Boston
Strong And, and they were a lot of statements
like, we're not accepting to be terrorized. We were told to go
inside because we were told now we were going to applaud the
police. Right? And that's a mess. Yeah, you were
told we did what we were told yes.
And we waved our flags EJ
that I'm sure they didn't intend to send. But it was directly in
contrast to what these forums were saying all day that the
people were, you know, effectively broken down and
emotionally, kaput,
comport instead they were out. Celebrate emotionally kaput,
but that's what Dick Clark said. He said they were tearing these
two kids terrorized if you got terrorized you have to be unique
you can't be standing strong. I mean you got to get these
messages are mixed. This is terrible. This is the worst
thing they've ever done and here's the here's the irony to
the whole thing. This is just This is going to encourage
because of all the ridiculous attention these two guys got.
It's great courage. copycats. Exactly.
Oh, hold on a second. Hello, Boston. This is Jersey calling.
We want our strong back. The hell is that? Since when did
this become proper English?
It's it's never been proper English. Boston Strong. It's
this we're gonna have an outbreak. Maybe it was how about
this for off the wall concept? Maybe this was done for the sole
purposes. The overreaction and the rest of it to get more
people to do this. We're not getting any action when it comes
to terrorists.
We need more action now. Hey,
go there hasn't been shit going on ever since 911 It's been over
12 years and nothing has really happened you know all we got it.
We have to do we need more Homeland Security? I mean, why
there is no action. There's nothing going on. No Muslims
move over here. And they just opened a restaurant. Oh, it's
the DC bar.
We had were made for you.
So yeah, thanks. I appreciate that, actually. So So I think it
may have been is it possible that this thing was actually
wasn't a botched plan but a exactly what we wanted to do or
overreact and make a big stink to draw some people out because
we can't they can't draw anybody out to do anything. You can only
find a few dummies
because people come here to like yeah, I'm gonna blow the crowd.
Hey, this is not so bad here. Hold on this girls are pretty is
a great spot for a restaurant. Are you nuts? Am I gonna blow
this? Well, unfortunately, this is of course, going to be
misused. And I'm already hearing you know, who Oh, boy, I'm
already hearing people say, oh, you know, this is this is the
problem. We need more we need you know, obviously, you know,
the FBI needs more money because, you know, they don't
have the right resources. Right. And this is the sad the sad, sad
state of affairs.
So that's the you know, you know, I know that no agenda
listeners who listen to the show more than three or four times
that is they must have watched this with with shaking their
head the whole time. So obvious but but the average member of
the public, which is the 99% they're all in all in they're
all in. Yeah. Oh my god, it could happen here. Shut to good.
You know, let's get more security at BART.
Well, no, but the what's really sad is you get like this angle
guy is saying is like, you know where Boston strong American
strong. We won't be terrorized. You're being terrorized by your
own police force. They're terrorizing you, forcing you to
stay in your home. I just call martial law then, you know,
don't die the way
this was. Did you see the group of cops is SWAT team whole group
of them. They'd be patty pan on some door in New Town, which is
similar to the other one in Watertown. You mean Waterton
fact that Erica Hill said a Newton. Oh,
really? Well, there isn't. There isn't Newton? There's a Newton
Garrison, Massachusetts anyway.
So the cops got everybody out of the house. And then they went in
with their guns, you know, and then they've searched the place.
And this is King George the Third. Yeah, exactly. And so
people are and this is Boston where the whole revolution
began.
Now you're making some sense, because yes, of course, this is
symbolic. very symbolic to do this in Boston, where the
revolution began. Absolutely. Yeah, absolutely. And you know,
there is a fourth amendment, you know, the cops don't just have
the right to come in and just like you know, roust you no
matter what the situation is. But you know, who's gonna say
no, but you got a tank and a Blackhawk front? What am I gonna
do?
How's it camo and armor and automatic weapons? Yeah, huh.
Inside edition, had a great report and this so so you hear
what we're doing here on the no agenda show. Often referred to
as the best podcast in the universe, and it's true because
we have a jingle when you have a jingle that accentuates the
fact. And so you're right people who listen to no agenda that
means more than once, you know a couple of times and so they have
this thinking and we don't have all the answers of course not
you know, things may appear over time, healthy skepticism, and we
have analysis, analysis not interrupted or thwarted by
commercial messages. However, the the general citizenry of the
United States, this is the type of reporting they get.
But first the rice and scare Believe it or not, the man
accused of sending poison laced letters to President Obama and
other politicians is also an Elvis impersonator, Jim Moray on
Earth incredible videos is fantastic.
The FBI says he's caught the man responsible for sending letters
laced with a deadly poison ricin to President Obama and to other
officials. And he is of all things an Elvis impersonator.
Paul, Kevin Curtis was arrested at his apartment in Corinth,
Mississippi, around six o'clock Wednesday night. The 45 year old
not only does a spot on Elvis impersonator Oh yeah,
he's great. We can hear that.
He also does Jon Bon Jovi this
man that is so spot on Bon Jovi. I mean, it's like I can see
my head to wipe my eyes.
Like Richie Sambora, is just walking into my living room now.
He's got a five star rating on his impersonator website. Oh,
five star rating pages full of glowing reviews. Kevin, you
delivered a truly spectacular performance for my parents 50th
wedding anniversary. The whole nation wants to know what in the
world could have made this impersonator snap and males
poison to the President and to others. It's something the FBI
is looking into. Oh, yes. They're
looking into it. I mean, this is people Oh, man. Wow, man. I
mean, this is the perfect story. For the for the the real true
American citizenry is you got Elvis in there and we got like,
you know, Bon Jovi.
He also does Hank Williams Jr.
And he's got a five star rating and he's available for a weekend
for your 50th wedding anniversary. And she's people
now let's thank our two producers.
And by the way I just back on. Man, let's just do it because
like, because they don't have the I have
it here. I'll do it. So we were at the market yesterday.
Yesterday was very funny. We had like a mini impromptu meetup at
the at the Austin farmers market. We had Jane and Mike our
local Austin producers who actually are pretty much
responsible for getting us here in the first place. They
organized the very first original meetup during the hot
pockets tour. Then there was surging who rolled in from
Dallas. Sir Jean actually, I believe thinking of moving to
Austin and we had two of our producers from North Carolina
bill and Sherry who had heard you know our conversations about
Austin and are we're in town looking to relocate and you know
so you know I'm like jammin with with pharma Chris about the eggs
and stuff and and all sudden you get like an in the morning and
then you know, there's just people just showing up at the
market now. So we had like a nice little coffee at Halcyon
and Serge Jean handed over $350 cash to miss Mickey as as a cash
donate him
will make him the got the spreadsheet so he will make him
miss executive producer along with Thomas Stanislavski from
New Market New Hampshire who came in with a check 33333
Without a comment because it was a bank check that came from one
of the banks. So we don't know when
Sir Jean, you know, he's he's multiple night at this point.
And I said to him, I said, you know, dude, why don't you like
getting the pyramids? You know, you do probably a baron by now
or you can you can up your title. He's like, in URL. Well,
he he wants to know if you can be sheriff.
You don't just judge a sheriff's not a peerage position.
I know maybe. Or a marshal. No,
that's not either. He's in Texas make him that? Well, you know,
he could be let's think about how to
you there's there's a sheriff in Robin Hood. There was the
Sheriff of Nottingham Forest.
He was in. It was a site it wasn't from it wasn't it's not
it's not a land holder.
The sheriff and he doesn't want to hold land. He doesn't know.
I will if he wants to be Sheriff instead.
Yeah, I think of Texas.
Sheriff of Texas.
Hey what's up Sheriff from tech here I
will put in a special show request and we put our sheet
together we'll make him whatever he is plus honorary sheriff of
Texas would that work?
Yeah or constable? No, I think it's fair.
You know, I I'm so I'm in Las Vegas. And the constable goes
by. And so So I go up to the cop at that because there was a
there was a impending riot that was going to take place outside
of the convention center and a bunch of cops around. And so I
go up to this cop and I say, You know what, what kind of was the
police organized around here? The guy by the way, this guy was
from San Jose. He says yeah, and he says that the police are
organized better in Vegas than they are anywhere in California
when there's too many people that use Sheriff Department and
county cops and and the locals in the event of BART Police and
all the rest and around here. I said what's the constable the
constable drought drove by and I said when it's a constable it's
the counselors Oh yeah. Well, I hear we only have really two so
we have one group which is the police department and sheriff's
departments combined. It's one group of police and as he says
is much easier to deal with. He says the constable is only has
one job and hit the constables job is to ride around apparently
no no. eviction notices.
Yeah, that's good for sure. Draining orders.
He's really worst job.
That's a horrible. This is all you're doing is just telling
people they can't do this. And that you just you're the one
that serves all the papers. Yeah. Nobody wants to be the
constable. Right. Make a long story short. Yeah.
All right. Well, we will we thanks for Jean. And we thank
Thomas Stan his whiskey for both being executive producers. And
we have our Associate Executive Producer, Warren Carroll, who
will be knighted today based upon Warren's $200 support
donation to the show. And these of course, are actual credits.
He has a note that he sent in Good show 505 reminding me once
again of the true value I'm receiving from the no agenda
show the best podcast in the universe, the least I can do is
become a knight of the no agenda roundtable Long live value for
value. Right. And he's Yeah, he's made knighthood. So it'll
be it'll be knighted today.
You know, what's kind of funny is from time to time, I'll get a
get a note from someone saying, Hey, man, this guy over here is
ripping off your concept. Yeah, they're ripping off your idea of
value for value. And I'm like, No, they're not this is that
ripped it off? Yeah. And by the way, it's a great idea. You
know, anyone everyone should be doing this question is that the
question is, are you getting real value from whatever that
is? That's the central question. And apparently word will we'll
get to the donation segment today will be very short because
I don't know if we're just sucking on the value. But we're
like 50% down what you said this would happen I don't know why
worn out from less because of the news cycle. I mean, this is
not
as true whenever there's a lot of news and we have to do Yeah,
people just tired they don't listen.
No, they were sick of it because public you know, they're getting
pounded by this terrorism is the worst. One of these idiots says
it's the worst terror event since 911.
No, my favorite is the worst bombing since 911. I'm like Oh
really? I didn't know there was a bombing on 911 etc Here
hearing this catch
if you have a clip of that I like to
hear it. Oh, I've heard it at least five times.
Well, you should combine and make one of those Bang Bang Bang
clips that's what you're good at. You're good at something
bombing bombing bombing you're looking at you're
good at the at the bang bang.
Think about the bombing you're right it's if I bite but I've
been hearing worse terror event or
worse roaming rat worse. Gross
death over here in Berkeley, because of the joy of God knows
what's going to happen next. I'm shaking in my boots like the
rest of the American public apparently.
Thank you, sir Jean.
Getting what you're trying to prove here.
Thank you, Sir Thomas, Stan, his whsv and thank you, Warren,
Carol, everyone else who will be thanking our donation segment.
We'll be doing that in a little bit. And of course you can
always support us it's very simple. Just go to this
website.org/and A and you can always go out and propagate our
formula. It's very simple. Here comes
our formula is this. We go out for yet people in the mouth
and also, thank you to Dennis crews for the artwork that we
use on episode 505
as a thing or artwork has fallen off the off the lead
Case in point this is what I Oh, we always say this when the
artwork sucks. When if the past two episodes
amuses artwork is fine, the art was good, but we had to dig 20
episodes back to find when there was no content art being done on
the spot. No. No, but he started to get burned out. I
don't know is it just a sign of bigger thing? Maybe
admit sign and here we go again. Well, John, maybe everyone's
just
like buying into it. And they're like, oh, yeah, kids, people
saying, you know, so I go through my theories and I test
it with people and then you know, at a certain point, I'm
like, Yeah, this is really weird. Really don't know and
then I'd be like, well, you know, sometimes it just crazy
people do crazy things. I'm like, no, sorry, that's not
true. Now it's just not like this not like this.
Ya know, crazy people do crazy things is what's going on in
Oakland. You know, what goes on with some maniac you know, jumps
off the bridge is got nothing, no connection to anything. It
just some guy jumped off the bridge. No, this is too too
many. Police involved too many agencies involved too many guys
in camo too many guys.
Lockdown lockdown down. Well, regardless,
you know, I might I was always thinking of a good script would
be the whole thing was just stayed so they could rob the the
mint or something. You know, there's a lot of writing,
knowing there steal all the money. So
that storyline? Yeah, it is.
And the next thing you know, they let everyone go back to
work and nobody notices.
Well, there are of course, a couple of things that are not
getting attention. Number one is well, actually, if I look at the
Federal Register, this is this is quite telling the Federal
Register is it's really what the news outfit should be reading.
But they don't. Or they do or they just don't report on
whatever. So a number of waivers came through all waivers.
Regarding here it is section 7031 B three of the Department
of State foreign operations and related programs Appropriation
Act of 2012, which of course, restricts what can be sold, or
what can be lent, or financed to foreign countries as it pertains
to military equipment. And so we have 123456 waivers of
restriction on assistance to certain governments, meaning
that we can not only send military equipment, but we can
send personnel we can send money. It's all a waiver, as
determined by this Appropriations Act for foreign
operations. Foreign Operations is code for I don't know,
fucking other people up. Does that sound? Fair enough, John,
in other countries? Yeah, maybe. Okay. So we have a waiver of
restriction on assistance to the Central Government of Lebanon
waiver on restriction of assistance to the central
government of Libya. waiver on restriction of assistance to the
central government of Egypt. waiver on restriction of
assistance, the Government of Yemen waiver on restriction of
assistance to Central Government of Algeria, and hello, and
waiver on restriction of assistance to the central
government of Saudi Arabia. In addition to that, the President
announced $130 million in additional money going to non
non lethal assistance to the resistance in Syria. So again, I
think John Kerry and his big Waterhead are going to show up
in Syria with a giant check. Here it is, boys. Here's your
check, come and get it. Of course, this is not going to the
rebels, it's going to American companies to then ship via
Turkey, night vision goggles, and bulletproof vests, because
that's non lethal assistance. And the President announced that
we are Well, the President didn't really announce this, but
looks like up to 20,000 troops will be positioned in Jordan, of
course, bordering on Syria. So I think there's something going on
there.
Yeah, I've heard that.
And I'm a little outraged that $130 million is one thing but
20,000 Troops, how much is that cost per day? Lots. And you
know, and meanwhile, we've
got I haven't yet half of our American reported that we're
putting 20,000 troops over there. Some of those guys are
pulling out of Afghanistan.
Yeah, but meanwhile, we got like 40 million people on food stamps
in America. You kidding me? It's crazy. Also in the Federal
Register Just while we're on it, this is great for GE. This is a
very weird buy notice dated January 31, published in the
Russia, GE Healthcare and made application by renewal to the
DEA Drug Enforcement Administration to be registered
as an importer of cocaine. And say this has been approved, the
company plans to import small quantities in the form of three
separate analogs of cocaine to validate production and quality
control systems for a reference standard and for producing
material for a future investigational new drug
submission. So they get to import cocaine.
General Electric
healthcare, GE Healthcare. Yeah, so they've got some kind of
cocaine testing machine apparently.
That's the find of the day,
the company plans to import small quantities in the form of
three separate analogs of cocaine to validate production
and quality control systems.
Quantities mean, and where are they getting it? Well, that
doesn't
say, but they're allowed to import it. So a Columbia Yes.
Yeah. A lot of activity over Ge, I think
and maybe we'll see the NBC News anchors a little more awake.
Some that Diane Sawyer?
Well, she's ABC, so she doesn't count. I know it's what I'm
saying. They just slip it over there. But they're also
producing material for a future investigational new drug. I
mean, that's great.
Yes, synthetic Coke, Coke. Yeah, that's what everyone needs.
Talea Bring it on.
He's gonna before we get away from all these bombs, we didn't
mention we mentioned that the Texas thing which has always
been a might mean he was just completely beside herself.
Apparently spending your time on Facebook. Art playing with the
people saying oh, we have to have to donate. We got us.
There's a red cross donation, donate to Boston, donate to
Boston. You know, it's like she's beefing that, you know,
they got insurance at Boston is a bunch of marathon runners.
This is not if you want donate, anybody donated the West Texas
town. We got Bo blitter rated.
Yeah. And by the way, Massachusetts got state of
emergency funds. The President signed off on it immediately. I
have not seen that for Texas.
No, no, you won't see it, you know, and we have this idiot
thumb. Hartman, who comes out and this is the this is kind of
the follow up report he has. He has his little panel that he
tries to do that. It just doesn't work because he's not a
good panel host. But play play this crazy assertion that he
makes here on his show.
feels that West chemical and fertilizer company and the plant
in Texas West, the West is actually the town it's not the
part of Texas, it's little little teeny 10 down Texas, had
not been inspected by OSHA since 1985. And they were sitting on
enough of this ammonium nitrate, which is what Tim McVeigh used
in his bomb to blow up West Texas, which is what happened.
And although they had in 2006, they've been cited for not
having good risk management paid a fine but nobody had inspected
them. I would submit that this is a good example of why we need
the government so Adam in your libertarian world the
what is he as Kokesh on there? Whatever his name? Yeah, hey,
that you solve these problems is these people die, this thing
blows up and everybody else goes, Oh, that's terrible.
That's that's
actually an example of why big government wouldn't have saved
these people. There was already regulations on the books, and
there was no infection. The government wasn't big enough,
which is not you know, they weren't quite big enough. They
could have gone down there anytime they wanted to and taken
a look under the hood. To see because once they were paid,
they were paid
off. Laurel and Hardy.
I'm telling you, this guy, I don't get this kind of logic.
How much do you
think he makes a year? You know, if you were let's see Brian, or
Lauer, Matt Lauer makes $25 million a year. Yeah. Oh,
no. Yes. Yeah. No, yeah. No. Yes. Please, you can No. Matt
Lauer salary 25 million that guy auditioned for VH one well, it's
a Wikipedia says it's 25 million. But Wikipedia also has
my height is four one. So you know this
is not from Wikipedia. Yes. It's Hey, I'm looking at Wicked Oh,
she is contracted became pretty public. 20 feet you always get
that feeling you have some belief that these guys aren't
making any money. All you have to do is the math on O'Reilly
No, no, I made a deal with that show makes on a daily basis and
why he makes so much money is you know,
I I'm very familiar with media salaries, and they've always
been overhyped. I just don't believe $25 million. Okay. I
mean, they may say that, but I don't think he's making
let's get back to the point. What do you think this guy's
making? I think he makes I think he probably makes about fourth
1000 a year
he can 38 doesn't have a radio show.
Yeah. breaks it into.
He's making money on the radio show.
No, baby. Yeah, just indicators take most of them. He's doing
better than we are. Well, by today's numbers he is. Banks
really help. So I was watching some hearings, being sick of
this Boston bullcrap. And so I ran into this hearing. This is
the worst ever. There's this guy. And by the way, you can
play to get to get your finger ready on the douchebag button.
But this was hearings on marijuana. Boy, with Michelle
layman
was this conveniently timed for for April 20. For 20. Is that
why this was all taking place?
It could be whatever the case was yesterday, by the way, it
was 420
That's correct. Thanks for all the 420s Everybody Yeah,
we didn't get one big hope. We don't have a lot of dope
smokers. Apparently this show. Yeah, we should go you should
google this woman Michelle Leon Hart, l e o n h AR T who is the
director of the DEA she's the admitted she's the top dog.
She's an
idiot. Oh, we haven't we played her before but she doesn't know
nothing. She doesn't
know nothing. Yeah, we we've definitely. Yeah. And she just
sounds like a moron. Yeah, so they had this Frank Wolf and
anyone in Virginia This is a Republican anyone in Virginia
who's got Frank Wolf as a representative should vote him
out. He besides sound besides by the way everybody in this
hearing sounded stoned and and there was all this assistance in
the back and all the interns everybody's sitting back they're
constantly looking at each other as though this you know oh my
god what what did they catch us? will taste of this we can play
the marijuana and the DEA part one and listen to how stupid
these people sound. These are the people making tons of money.
And there are our leaders
there will be an amendment to legalize marijuana on the floor
when this bill comes up. Guaran guarantee guaranteed Are you
could you say then that in a state that legalizes marijuana,
Washington State Colorado some of that marijuana will be
supplied by Mexican drug cartels when that time comes?
Well a lot will depend on what what the different states law
says but let's take the states that have already passed medical
marijuana okay, right we see an influence of Mexican marijuana
especially out west with the dispensaries
it's the good shit that's what you are
we a lot of people are saying well let's let's experiment with
this. We don't need to experiment with it. We know what
happened with medical marijuana in the states use grew you screw
overnight. I was especially in charge in Los Angeles.
Overnight. dispensaries, more dispensaries and Starbucks and
it has gotten to the point so out of hand that cities and
municipalities in South Southern California are are banning
dispensaries it coming to their areas because they saw what
happened. They saw the influence of more crime in that area. You
know, face it, do a little surveillance like we do on some
of these dispensaries.
She's doing stakeouts. Apparently, John, she's eating
doughnuts. And
you'll see that the primary patients of the dispensary are
males from you know, age of 18 to 26.
Our prime target for Adderall and and other groovy stuff
is a lot of apparent sick people out there. So we are concerned.
Stop, Oh, stop. I don't want to get to these other clips. This
is almost done.
You're not missing anything. Okay. So she said two things.
One, I didn't know that Starbucks was a metric.
Yes, no. Starbucks is a great metric. It's the new McDonald's,
you know.
So Starbucks is a metric and there's more of these
dispensaries than the last Starbucks. We had. In 12.
Starbucks. We have never
droned a country that has a Starbucks. That's the new
metric. You see.
I like it. Yeah. And then this crime thing here. So today's
Huffington Post San Francisco, nine years ago, a small medical
marijuana dispensary opened in San Francisco's lower Haight.
The vapor room quickly found displays within the neighborhood
and his presidents had an interesting if not
counterintuitive, effect, it appears to have reduced crime.
Now of course it does. I want I do want to say one thing, if I
can just interject. So yesterday was 420 and the news reports,
you know, show everyone lighting up at 420 in the afternoon you
know, so and I was a major, major user of the holy herbs, a
marriage you wanna for 10 years from Wake and bake to sleepy
time and just all if I could get because I almost was setting my
alarm at three in the mornings. I needed to look at three in the
morning just go back. No, but that but
it couldn't like that part of the story.
Alright, it's here by true put it in the wiki put it on my wiki
page. What I saw the news I can see out all and Boulder. You
look like assholes when you do that. Can I just say that? I
mean, so I'm all for marijuana. I think it's great. You know,
but it's like, you know, it's like you're sitting on the
street like guzzling Jack Daniels You look like a dick
when you do that and you do nothing for promotion of what I
think is a very medicinal plant and very very useful and tasty
to smoke although I don't do it anymore.
This fortunately ever get tasty from them but go on.
The you haven't ever when's the last time you smoked it?
I don't smoke it now but
you have right you smoked it in your lifetime. Ed right so how
can you even remember what it tastes like? There's some weed
that is really tasty. The new
new wine The One A the new weed is tasty.
Definitely the new weed.
Thank you for the opening is 121 Got it. But when people sit
around on the outside on the steps and like it's legal we're
gonna let their kid the cops can't do anything you make
everyone who smokes weed look like a dick. Stop it. Celebrate
for 25 You know, but
just sort of celebrate is just a date. It's
it's a it's a weed culture thing. That's okay. I'm okay
with that. But you know, take a trip to Jamaica and then go sit
with some Rasta Farah, and really learn about the culture
of weed really learn about it what this thing can do for this
magical plant that burns hotter than coal. Anywho. So just stop
that. It's not funny. You don't need it anymore.
So play the clip that did this. This thing got worse and worse.
PLAY CLIP three. And you hear some of the crazy memes that
come in. I be surprised if you can't not laugh at this
particular clip.
I'm worried about some figures from Colorado, just since
medical marijuana became legal there
that we can't sell any more cancer medication because people
are curing themselves. This is an outrage the
marijuana was legalized not medical marijuana. That's okay.
She doesn't know what she's talking about. She's an idiot
car accidents and fatal car accidents. I've got some figures
I could give you on that.
There will be an increase in car accidents and federal court.
Increase in car accidents is
I always thought this guy can not finish a word. It constantly
says he's gonna give me fatal car.
Accident, let me listen. I go, Hey, man, what's up? I
can't and he just cuts him off in
federal court.
Increase in car accidents is gotta be a major concern. In
fact, a driver who is used marijuana is twice as likely to
have a crash than someone that didn't. Oh, this is
a statistic.
It depends if he's in reverse, which is what most people on we
do. I can back it up all the way home watch.
There are a lot of statistics out there. Because statistics.
People have looked at the science and the science.
schedule on because it's high potential for abuse. More teens
enter drug treatment for marijuana addiction. Then other
other illegal drugs and alcohol.
Alright, so
you stepped on the end. It was over. Play the very end again.
Hold on a second. I'm sorry. It was not always clear. You know,
you'd like you.
I put little codes in these little things. Yes. Because 50%
of your clips you say stop before it's over. So I don't
know. Hold on. Here we go. I'll get it
in the record. Hey, glad to give you that one. Let me back it up
a little more. That has shown a study like that. Yeah, he's a
weak lead in the record.
He glad to give you that one.
What I don't get back far enough. Okay.
By the time that they're I think in their 20s they can they've
been testing to show about an 8% drop in IQ percent drop. I don't
know any other drug that has shown a steady like,
weak lead in the record. Be glad
to give you that one.
Okay. True fact 8% drop in IQ facts to course,
well, it's actually what they've determined if you do enough
reading, it's not 8% anything, it's eight points or a point you
drop two if you start when you're 13. and smoke it like a
maniac until you're about 21.
And can you measure IQ on the Starbucks scale? But the way it
seems to work to me that you're so stoned when you're taking the
IQ test? When you're 21? That yeah, you're probably going to
be off a few points.
I've never really bought into the whole number thing on IQ. I
don't know. What do you think my IQ is? I'll tell you because I
hadn't measured what is my IQ 31. So I went on the national IQ
test in the Netherlands several years ago, wow. 10 years ago,
probably no 567 years ago. And so the national IQ test is where
you get a whole bunch of celebrities, and they go on
television, and they take the test. And then you know, and
then the test is scored and event. It's a reality television
show. It's called the National IQ test, because it actually it
ran in the States for a season or two it was it was pretty big.
And you know, because then you can play along at home. And to
use 131 Thank you. I appreciate that. You know what my my actual
score was? 100
Crap, right. So nobody has 100
So what is bullcrap? Are the numbers bullcrap, or is the
test. I think the whole idea of a test is bullcrap. How can you
measure IQ? That's bullshit. You can't measure that. I'm not
buying into the whole thing.
But if I had 100, I'd say the same thing. What? What?
All right. Well, you just don't want it to you. You just don't
want to get into an intelligent conversation with me about the
bull crap. And so what is your IQ? You've had it measured?
It came out a couple of different numbers. Yeah, you get
138 once and 142 a second time.
Right. And who measured that Mensa?
No, I didn't I Mensa. And yeah, no, I agree to which it's also
very cultural. So even though it's not supposed to be, let's
play okay, we get through some work some stuff. I can't
remember which one had there's the gateway drug clip. This is a
good clip. The one I would like to have is this guy. Bonner
comes in and as soon as you're a short clip here. Try the mirror.
Try them. Try the part five clip. See where that goes.
Okey dokey. Let's see where it goes.
I think Dr. Harris is right. I think the Attorney General and
the Attorney General is coming up next week. Hold
on a second stop making you stop constantly. Okay, at this clip,
the guy they have another Congressman chimes in this is
Joe J. Oh, Bonner. And that's a man by the way. He's from
Alabama mobile. And he you have to imagine him when he speaks.
He is though they're talking about marijuana and all the rest
of it until and he's got this snide look on his face. Like
he's just figured something out. That's really important. Like,
remember, George Bush is to put this look on his face once in a
while, like he's gay. He knows them. He puts his look on his
face to tell everyone but has anyone noticed that the drug is
illegal? I mean, it's the dumbest thing you've ever heard.
Oh, here.
You know, you might ask him or if you don't ask him. I'll ask
him. I think the Attorney General is really going to have
to speak out on this. He cannot pull a punches harlot and wash
his hands or punches Pilate. Mr. Chairman, yes, Mr. Vaughn,
outstanding question, but I'm not trying to put words in the
administrators mouth. She said this is a dangerous drug. But
it's also an illegal drug. It's correct. So it's a dangerous
illegal drug. I think this has been an insightful hearing.
And I will say the Attorney General is aware of that. We
have we have been able to give input on the concerns we have.
And he is looking at it. He's studying it. He's looking at
those legal you know, the DEA isn't going to look at the legal
implications there. But but he is and he has said that they're
doing a very good look at it. Both states, what they passed
are very different. They're doing didn't have time to look
at it and then to figure out a way forward
is really may require the President of the United States
to speak out.
Yeah or give up his weed.
So they're gonna look at it they're gonna look at it they're
gonna look at it they will look at
relevant these RhoGAM relevant clip of irrelevant clip
hit it
doesn't mean that every single time I saw him he makes sure to
say hi. He was very calm, relaxed all the time.
For people who knew him there were no warning signs Andrew
describes an average college sophomore who played intramural
soccer enjoyed FIFA soccer video games and smoked a lot of
marijuana
that's our Chechnya Marathon bomber smoke a lot of marijuana
as right because when you're really stoned you like the first
thing you do is like hey, man, I got a great idea.
Dig this up. Really, really good idea. And then and then
one of these clips I'm not gonna play these clips because they're
tedious because this woman is so dumb. But the one of these clips
they talked about what I wish I could figure out what you want
are the ones it's either two it might be two or it might be four
try to look for and I can tell them okay,
some that are marijuana in cases like that. But in whereas
legalize will be legalized and Mexican cartels are involved in
pretty heinous crime payments by people's lives have taken will
will ultimately be in big involved. The other question
that I want to ask you then if you could just
so maybe it was like this, hey, hey,
I got a great idea. Let's do this. Let's do this thing get
hammered, man. Like,
How funny would this be if like, we're all like, really baked
when we do this whole thing about marijuana a way Hey, you,
you, Administrator
ready, because we're gonna get this stuff or any of our
interns?
Who's got who's got the Red Vines, the vorak.
Educate, and I see our good friends from C span is here, if
you would give them a token. What you would say to a mom or
dad or maybe a governor or a state legislator or this
carefully member of Congress. What is the problem with
marijuana if they would say to you administrator, there's a
really out a problem. They've just legalized it in Colorado,
there's been no recognized medical use and treatment in the
US on that. That's been determined by the FDA. On these
on research that's been done. And there's a lack of accepted
safety protocols for use of the drug, even under medical
supervision. The reason why we're worried about this with
young people is there's also a connection between schizophrenia
psychosis. And it's the young marijuana user studies. Now, we
didn't have these studies 10 years ago, but they have
studies, they looked at the science, and this is a drug and
the message that there that the kids are going to get in social
media, the message that kids are going to get on television, on
the radio, in their songs with their peers, is that it's a
harmless drug. So as parents the parents need to say, here are
the facts. Or here's where you can go to get the facts is
apparent.
Is it a gateway Oh,
man bring back this is your brain on drugs? The egg
commercial? Bring that bring that one back? That was great.
Remember that?
Yeah, well, yeah, the egg. Yeah, this
is your brain. This is your brain on drugs. And I was going
like, Cool. Cool to Gateway
goes on. This woman is just an idiot. And this these Republican
congressmen who are all four, by the way, the federalized aspect
of all this when they shouldn't be supporting the 10th amendment
and states rights regarding this sort of law, because why do you
had Why did you have the Volstead Act? Prohibition
prohibiting the drinking of alcohol had to be a
constitutional amendment. Hey,
hey, stop doing twit material? No agenda.
This doesn't have to be. Yeah, very funny. Yeah. I take that
material everywhere, as far as I'm concerned. To explain to me
why don't you explain it? What can you explain to me why they
had to have a constitutional amendment to make the
consumption of alcohol illegal in this country, but you don't
need a constitutional amendment with with these with marijuana?
Okay,
well, let me explain. First of all, because the states
determine what people can do in their own state, not the federal
government. It's called the Constitution Bill of Rights
determined specifically and 10th amendment, specifically what the
federal government can do. But when it comes to marijuana, and
federal regulation, which of course are highly disputed in
California, although California isn't, you know, they're all on
board with the program so they don't have the National Guard
shooting at the Feds as they invade their sovereign state as
the good the great Riyadh, they should shoot back but they don't
do that. And that is because of course, people are blithering
uneducated idiots by design our schools are setting them up to
not learn anything to learn lies and propaganda and to turn the
entire state of the United States into a climate change
fearing bunch of blithering Yahoo's.
Oh, I guess that explains it. Yeah,
I mean, I'm not saying that. Okay. But did but what so Okay,
well, let me just say this, I should have clipped. I should
have clipped this week in tech. Because who was the guy who was
on with you? The guy with the with the gout? The Gout guy?
Roger Chang, Roger Chang. Anyway, so it was the only thing
that triggered my response. Was his his his parroting the
phrase? Federal law?
Exactly, exactly. Thank
you. When do you heard that, that I wasn't going to sit down
and hear that and listen to that? Well, what's worse, is
that is a bull crap meme that the media has propagated. What
is
worse is that there is so here's why I'm frustrated. Because I'm
seeing you surrounded by morons and it hurts me as your friend
and colleague. I'm like, Oh my god. He's sitting there with
morons. And you know, I didn't even log into the chat room,
because I knew that the chat room would be like, ganging up
on you because
there was a chat room was actually on my site. Okay, well,
that's that chat room. A bunch of libertarian was
chat room to you were in the overflow chat room. You weren't
in one, believe me.
I know. But I watched one one of the you know, the layout in that
place by him into and then on this big screen one is going on.
That's why I kind of prefer to go to because I can see
the whole I mean, the whole thing is, it just it really made
me sad because I realized that so many people really believe
this. And Chinese Chang on a journalist doesn't write for a
living. What does he do?
He was one of those guys that Rev. Three doing shows.
Okay, so as he's not a journalist, okay. Yeah, it's
like, it's so it's sad. John is just really, really sad when I
hear that. And that is indoctrination and repetition
and bullcrap that people get bestowed upon them by the media
that they think this way. And it's rampant and it's you can't
stop it anymore. The Oh no, it's
we've already decided you can't stop by at least you can fight
your little battle. Right. How'd
that work out for you?
I didn't do it. I couldn't even get anyone to go look at the
gentleman. He's a crackpot. He's an old geezer hanging out
with curry. No, yeah. Oh, yeah. And that ages thing has got to
stop too. I mean, it's funny when you do it, because it's
funny, but I'm not going to stand for people doing that to
you anymore. It's not
Eric feels the same way. I don't think it's funny. He's
incredibly incense and I think was some justification that
these, you know, these lip, they're always a liberal
contingent. These liberals who have promoted this kind of, you
know, don't stereotype don't do this. Don't do that, you know,
politically correct. They're the most ages people you'll ever run
into.
And so I didn't clip it, but Sheryl Sandberg was on the BBC.
Ah, tenure. Here's the joke. So I'm talking. I'm talking about
Sheryl Sandberg. She's got this new book, let's
say, Sheryl Sandberg is the she's the most powerful woman in
Silicon Valley this this week, because she is the Chief
Operating Officer of Facebook. Right. That's where she's from.
And she wrote a book called Lean in.
And the punch line is to show your tits up bus killed Jr.
That kid's got a great career ahead of him in the Catskills.
It's gonna be great.
Now, you know, and I listen to this and I'm listening and Miss
Mickey is listening because, you know, the, my command center,
which is basically in the kitchen almost in this house.
And it she's like, even she's outraged by this bullcrap. Just
like men and women are different. You can't you just
can't force it that we have to be exactly the same. And, you
know, it's all about having babies and, you know, that's
unfair. You know, it's like one of these days we're
gonna fare that women have to have the baby.
I'm telling you one of these days we're gonna wake up and I'm
gonna have to give birth through my butt. I'm telling you that
it's gonna be law the way we're headed and law and but there's
this whole thing going on I have this I call it the war on men
really is what I'm that's exactly what okay so here is
study fact let me just bring up the article here because this
one really really made me laugh from pop sci.com Which is what
does that popular science right Popular Science Magazine a new
paper in the May issue of journal of experimental social
psychology which we need to subscribe to suggest that even
seeing images of female role models can help women speak
publicly and perform as leaders and so they tested this and and
what picture scored the best with women to to help them speak
publicly and perform as leaders what picture
Hillary Clinton Fuck Yeah, exactly. Yes, it's obvious
just seeing Hillary Clinton's face improves women's public
speaking. So I think the next time
I think that this is something pathetic about this a totally
pathetic well first of all, just like you Hillary Clinton, you
know, the not a great person by any means is so worshipped by a
huge contingent and fair. You can you can hear it when you
when sometimes. These women, they just gush over Hillary and
how much she's done and how important she has and what a
great human being she has all the work. She's done. This is
the woman who can't even sweat
can't sweat. She's incapable of perspiration. I tell you,
we've we've discussed this on the show and people have
identified it,
but guess what, guess who was second? Who was second? Madeline
Albright? No, no, no. Sorry. No. A little more current.
Let me think. And curry,
no. So Angular Merkel.
Oh, my God. never guessed that. Yeah. Third on the list. No,
she's a woman. I'm not sure who was third on the list.
Oh, Bill Clinton.
I'm gonna show my move by Jody to no agenda. Imagine all the
people who could do that. Oh, yeah. That'd be fun.
We have a few people to thank Jeremy Johnson and Port Angeles,
Washington. $125.69. The itme says in the morning Good to see
Miss Mickey on TV. I saw that by the way. What do you think? I
thought she's really a solid actress. And don't raise it.
Don't
you think that you'd be great for three was a bit much
but the line she had a couple lines. So yeah, I mean, I
thought she carried herself. Well. She was backlit so you
really couldn't even see her that well, but it was a good
performance. It was very believable. She could get work.
And she should she should think she should consider acting.
Yeah, no, really seriously, it was really good, I think is they
should put her in season three.
By the way, that show sucks. No, you know
what? That's what I thought too, but we really got into it
because you got to, it's like, you're in it. Well, you gotta
it's like smoking dope. It's a gateway to Rubicon.
Okay, we want to thank Nelda Smith and Tavares Florida $100

annoying. Get on board with old hams.
Yes. Right. Yes. Stephen Sevak. Chuck

by the way back to Hutchinson he does mention he leaves a mac and
cheese life of your thank you for Steven sev chuck in West
Orange New Jersey 7069 my old stomping grounds and he said
karma worked for him and now you can ring the bells 1616 I did
and I will mention there was only one and it came in full
force at the last minute
grow because once this is over that's it right we're not
accepting them anymore.
We're not going to ring the bell anymore we just will accept them
but we're not going to make a big deal there's no more 6969
The streak will be over so this is really pushing it so you know
maybe Shern should come back with a with a donation or friend
in
so I guess I'll do I ring the bell and to close it out or
what?
Yeah, I suppose they say mark or mark Schwab Ben? I'm sorry he
lives in Mark Schwab in which is endorsement I guess. Stephen
should oh this is Dwight. This is a happy birthday donation for
the one with the cute but carry it was special John and Adam
karma for her. In case John gets around. He would love to get as
much talked about recipe for pulled pork the smokers ready
lots of greetings from Marquette Sragow the wasteland
that's the one who has the she put the no agenda on her but for
those she's the runner isn't sure
Yeah, yeah. Run it says no agenda show.com on her but she's
got a pretty but yeah, so she gets a lot of attention and is
running to tight European kind of outfit. Yeah. So anyway, she
started it and maybe that would that would be ironic, but it'd
be cool. If Stefan ended it could be 6969. Could be about a
year and a half. Who started it again? Carried
carry started it. Yes,
man. Time flies. We
just got a visual.
Dean Frederickson? 6616. Sam Minar, box Hills Scout Victoria.
Double nickels on the dime. Eric vite in Dublin, 50 bucks. And
finally, this is how short this is. We're short people. Yeah.
Adam Willis in Arlington, Virginia $50. He cancelled his
$4 week subscription because I was annoyed by all the inbox
receipts and lines of donations in my bank statement. If you
make a $16 a month donation link available, I'll be happy to re
subscribe. Okay, we'll set something like that up. And he
would like to have a little call out which we'll give him which
unfortunately, I just clicked on the wrong
one is science sciences in sciences in karma. Most
sciences. You've got karma
that closes out our donations. Yes, bad. And hopefully
everything's up by Thursday.
Well, yeah, because I'm motorcycle improves to which
wouldn't be a bad thing. Okay, we need a better news cycle. We
need better art and
get more and more work contributions. Whereas support I
feel a
little shorted because I work really hard. Oh, whatever. Yeah,
whatever. No, whatever
they'll have in common Adam
and John will be traveling to Calgary, Alberta, Canada, where
all the money is at the end of the month for work assignment
handling insurance claims for my company. I'll be there for at
least a month.
i By the way, I got this note and I was thinking about it. And
I sent him to air b&b. And I haven't heard back so I think
he's found his solution. Well, okay, so he was gonna turn the
show into a dating site, you know? You he needed a room for
$2,000 a month or something.
What does that have to do with dating? Was like,
you know, once it works, we started getting having getting
people housing on the show. The next thing you know, we're going
to be a dating site. But once you went to Airbnb, I haven't
heard back.
Well, the only reason why I figured I'd pick it out of the
pile is because you know, he's a he's a monthly producer.
Yeah, no, i That's why I was corresponding with him. And I
think he's found us air b&b in Calgary. And that whole area has
got all kinds of good deals. He was going through, I don't know
hotwire.com or something. Oh, no, no, no, it was cheap.
So we're this summer. And you and I've discussed this briefly
in one email conversation. So Miss Mickey and I are going to
go to Europe. And I had requested with you specifically
I said I'd like to take one week one whole week off, which you
immediately came back with college fun, whatever. I can't
remember what it was.
They would literally was like yes At the answer bowl cram
there was something along those lines.
Oh, I'll figure it out it. No, no, what it was was you're the
one that makes a big deal about always doing the show. Yeah,
because a college fund you want to take,
because I have to clear my head. And above all, we've been
invited to stay with my friend Michelle at his house in the
south of France. And I know that that basically means we're just
drunk for a week. So I'm like, I can't be like, you can't do it.
Hang on there. No. Well, so I'm taking the the new box which by
the way, I did the the test of the of my the podcaster. And I'm
gonna I think I'm gonna try it on the show on Thursday. It's,
it's,
once again, explain what you made a box.
Yeah, so I made a box is supposed to be very small,
portable. And in the idea is if you have this box, you can do
the no agenda show. So you can do Eclipse, you can do Skype,
you can do you know, the whole thing. And it will sound good,
too. That's the whole idea. And so so test one was first. So
phase one is getting the whole thing together, putting it,
you're getting all the elements. Phase two is creating it into a
mobile situation that is small that I can small enough that I
can actually test it. Because phase four or five would be to
have someone build this in one single unit. Now it's a whole
bunch of print boards and things that I've pieces that I've put
together. But actually, we went to K No, we went through stage
three, I dropped it by accident by book from like chest height.
And that would be stage three, that'd be the testing.
Yeah, dropped us. And it was 3.5. Yeah, and it still works.
So that was really cool. It's very light. And so I'm very
excited about it. But right now, you know, it's like a box of a
whole bunch of wires, so doesn't really look all that fantastic.
But it has, it has everything you need. All you need to do is
add a computer, any computer will do you know, and doesn't
have to be something specific. And you can do this show, that
is the promise. You could also do a daily source code with it.
But that is the promise of the podcast. Anyway. So I want to
take that to Europe. And so what we're going to do is we're going
to fly in Amsterdam.
When you go on what we're talking about today, what the
idea is
July 19, I think let me see. Let me check this out. I'll tell you
exactly what we're going to do to so you can droning and I put
in the book, yes. Okay. Put it in the book. So July. Where are
we? June? Here we go. June July. Yes. So after the show on the
18th we would leave on Friday the 19th. So there will be no
show on the 21st. And so we fly to Amsterdam on the 19th then we
fly down to just staying overnight in Amsterdam, or one
night and a half, then we're gonna fly down to the south of
France on the 21st or 22nd. Then we're drunk that whole week. And
through the 27th. Right. And then we've on the on the 27th or
28th I can't frickin remember. Then we drive to my sister in
Florence. And then we fly back on Wednesday the 31st than on
Thursday the first of August I do a show again from I mean I'm
sorry so so actually we do it when I arrive in Amsterdam.
Sunday the 21st we do a show then take the Thursday and
Sunday off after that. And then back on the first is what my
life is people. This is where it is I'm makes me mad when we get
like slow donations is what am I doing with my life?
Give us the rundown because I need to know these dates. Okay.
So we have a show from Amsterdam on the Sunday the 21st. Then no
show on the 25th no show on the 28th we resume the show August
the first from Amsterdam again. And then on the eighth. I'm back
in Texas
for the show. First you're gonna do a show in Amsterdam. Yes.
first of August.
Oh, boy. Wow. Taking your whole week off. That's my vacation
that's less than the average citizen so
you're gonna be gone from No, I'm working back to the first
two weeks. I'm
working on the 21st working on my so called vacation. Well, I
don't just show up for the show. John. There is actual work that
goes into it. I think you might
say no, I'm just saying it's not as though it gets me
angry. I don't want to talk about anymore Screw it. I'll do
it after the show. makes me mad. I'm looking at this I'm like I'm
What am I doing
a week off then when for God's sake we can What about doing
some reruns or something? You might as well maybe somebody can
make as another one of these clip shows.
Let's get something. Let's just have some other hosts come in.
That's a good idea.
Want to kill the show? Is that what you're saying?
Yeah. Considering it but after I kill myself Hold on a second
should never say that now that's going to be used as evidence
that you killed yourself
I'm going to erase it from the show random Marie Curie now
to vorak.org/and A
alright nick the rat has just suggested that you do the show
with Leo.
I think we have a winner. Great idea named
Steven shown of course says Happy Birthday to carry cute
much shown and we appreciate you coming in with what may be the
final swas enough donation of 6969 rbma METARS says

have no money, but I'm not going to answer these anymore.
Sick and tired of it.
You answer them. Yeah, I
try. You know, I'm like I'm hopeful.
Somebody has something good to say I'll pay attention.
It's complicated. Let's take a little bit of little bit of
medical news here. There was a very interesting, I think maybe
they're trying to reclassify Tylenol or something. Have you
been following this that, that?
I don't know anything about the Tylenol thing? Yeah. So
there's articles everywhere about Tylenol. Basically being
good for your mind. It makes you less anxious. So yeah, so you
know, like, it's good. It's not good for your liver. No, in
fact, it's very bad for your liver and many people a year die
from OD on Tylenol. But I guess they're trying to reclassify it
as some kind of calming drug. Yes, yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. It's
there's a big PR push. It's the same story everywhere that you
know, research has shown that people who take Tylenol
regularly you know, it's not addictive like narcotics, but it
does make it It soothes your mind. So they have
not heard any of them start look it up.
Look it up Tylenol, specifically not even the drug. Which is what
is it sort of phentermine, SC to Fetta mean? Yes. Here it is. The
more it study, the more it seems you may be overlooking subtle
cognitive effects. Research shows it dulls the pain of
social rejection Yes, this is very good. It's no yeah,
what's Tylenol is doing to our mind asks James Hamblin of the
Atlantic just started in 2009 Yeah, but well so and why is it
pushed it they've been pushing this apparently so poorly that I
didn't even know about it till now. No, it's
started popping up, started popping up. Sir Dr. Sharkey, who
was are
several 100 People in us will die in 2013. From liver failure
after I said instead of Hanuman, acetic acetaminophen overdose,
acetaminophen right. I'm sorry, go on.
Well, I mean, as I'm looking at the Atlantic article now as
well, but I've seen in several places and people have been
sending me this that it's okay here among people who took the
placebo. Those who wrote about existence existential anxiety
said much higher bail than those who wrote about the dentist. But
if they took Tylenol wrote existentially the sense of moral
judgments seemed to be blunted. I'm telling you Tylenol. Tylenol
makes you feel good. You watch you watch
the lead researchers see Jude look this guy up. See Nathan de
wall d capital W A L L the University of Kentucky. He says
nobody's ever tested the idea that it alleviates the soit
physical pain is social rejection. Because you get Oh, I
feel bad because somebody told me to get lost bullying,
bullying, bullying. Ah.
There you go. Watch it. Watch it show up here. Tommy, Tommy take
some time. All we do to school just in case you get bullied.
Yeah, you can also take a punch better. But let's do this. Hold
on a second. Let me just Tylenol bully and see if anything shows
up. Tylenol
each evening, participants answered questions on the so
called hurt feelings scale, which means the social pain, the
hurt feelings, teasing, hurt feelings and social pain
decreased over time and those taking acetaminophen while no
change was observed in subjects taking the placebo. The
participants happiness levels didn't change much over the
course of the study for either group. So they didn't get any
happier.
No, it's not happier
volunteers.
Well, I'm just saying I'm just I'm just identifying it. I'm
not. I'm not a medical doctor.
Unlike some other people, I've got a clip here. Some other
people are identifying stuff that I would have never
suspected in a million years play the poppies clip.
What's going on with this? The Taliban
finances much of its operations by selling opium which is grown
from poppies, which are right now being harvested. So here's
the question Why are American troops now helping Afghan
farmers grow that opium report from Afghanistan on a
controversial new policy? In Western Kandahar, Poppy
farmer score Hill harvest their crops and the Americans do
nothing to stop
them. Oh, what genius is this that we've been we've been
tracking this for five years. What genius new show was this
on?
It was a BBC or some really Joe was but I suppose I saw what?
Who? Where did they find the memo at the bottom of the
drawer? How is this news?
Oh my goodness. Ah,
yeah. And also imports from Burma are now up as well. Now
that we've opened it all up. It's like, Well, look, we look
we know GE is importing cocaine legally. I mean, God, please. I
mean, it's not this is not like big secrets, everybody.
So apparently the Afghan airlines, whatever. agwa
whatever it's called. They've been you know, we don't we
refuse to do business with them. And they're the ones that are
shipping all the way I guess we do not have full control over
the entire Poppy heroin opium distribution network because
this airline and you could you can it doesn't take much
research to figure this out. They keep flying to some town up
in one of those Russian states. And with loads they just loaded
the gills with heroin and opium and then they go straight into
Russia. And I guess they haven't been playing ball with us and I
think there's a that's where the Taliban is getting their money
from this these guys. But we are
in the wrong business. We're in the wrong business.
Oh, yeah, these guys are and they apparently this air one
airport just takes all the shipments nobody gives a crap.
Just bring it in. I got a drunk drunk or not drunk thing if you
want to try it. We
need a jingle for that.
I know I've been waiting. Is this Diane Sawyer? No. Okay,
it's just our friend Pat Leahy,
Pat Leahy and Pat is where how was how do we get acquainted
with that Senator?
He's up there talking about gun control in front of Congress.
Okay. I don't know I could be wrong drunk or not drunk.
Here we go.
And if we agree with the background check system is
worthwhile. Should we not trying to inform its content?
Can it be hammered stone as well only drunk or not drunk?
And you saw it can be more effective. What a responsible
gun owner objects to improving the background check system
stand up and be counted. Now January I pointed out the Wayne
LaPierre testified 99 Nine in favor of mandatory criminal
background checks. For as he put it every sale every gun show. He
went De emphasize NRA support for closing a loophole in the
background check system by saying and what has become an
oft quoted, Mark. No loopholes anywhere free anyone. As long as
common sense clubs show loophole, right, okay,
let me have the common sense. Just say, Is it common sense?
Harry Reid, was that when he was drunk by the way, Harry Reid who
was not drawers, Harry Reid, who was not drunk gave us he messed
it up. He was like, he gave us the code. Then he thought, oh,
wait, it says the wrong code. Oh, wait, no, it's the right
code
family and friends. Of those who were injured and killed in
Aurora, Colorado, were there we had people here from the
tragedy, buddy, forget how to read. Listen. 3332 33 people
killed 3332 33 people. Please hurry get it straight. That's
the magic number. The magic number 3332 33 people killed.
We got it. Glad you got it. Right. Okay, that's all good.
Yeah, that was giving you the measurements of his flat
girlfriend.
Hey, now. Anyway,
let me see if I have this here. I was going to Hey, oh, did I
lose this somehow? This is really bad. Crap. Oh, here it
is. Yes. Happy Earth gay. Earth gay. Yes. Happy Earth gay. You
know what tomorrow is? Tomorrow is the 22nd
earth gay? Yes.
Happy Earth Day. Well, Earth Day
is in just two days. But here's Seattle. We're already getting a
headstart. Hundreds of volunteers from out for
sustainability. A local gay advocacy group cleaned up trails
along the shores of Lake Union today for what they are dubbing.
Earth gay. aren't just shovels and rakes. They waited Molson
cleared out invasive non native plants from the area. Organizers
say Seattle's gay community echoes the city's view when it
comes to saving the planet.
It symbolizes the collective global care of the planet that
we all share. An earth gay is a really interesting expression of
that. Because we get to be visible, both within our city
but also within that movement.
First gay is in its fifth year, but organizers say it is gaining
in popularity, the event has already expanded to Tacoma. And
next year, the group wants to bring it to Portland.
Austin can't be far off Earth gay, everybody perfect.
You're gonna clean up the place, or whatever you want.
So, so this earth so gay and climate change seem to be going
together very well as reported here by Representative White
House Democrats in the US Congress.
To the extent that your question is what can we do to make a
higher profile for this issue? meetings like this? And
occasions like this actually answer that question. For quite
a while we've been timid about standing up for what we know the
scientific facts to be. I think we got knocked down by a very
powerful propaganda campaign by the polluting industries
polluting industries pointed out the weather changes that we've
seen the sea level changes, suck, have pushed back the pie,
it's not in line with the lies public opinion, so that the
propaganda campaign is I think, have less and less effect. And
now I think it's our task to try to make sure that climate change
lines up right behind immigration and gay rights as an
issue where the Republicans see that if they stick with this,
they're gonna run off the cliff like lemmings.
Die die all of you lemmings. So tomorrow is Earth Day. And their
three fifty.org is launching a new movie.
at Coney.
It's almost as good. So three says this is very interesting.
Three fifty.org is run. I guess the head guy is Bill McKibben.
Yeah,
we've talked about him before.
Yes, we have. And so I would like to play. This was called do
the math. He's, yeah, so
this is the movie
this is do the math the movie. And I would add to it do the
math slaves and listen to the trailer because it's it's very
interesting the memes that are being thrown in your face. In
regards to how we are we are basically we're dead. I mean,
I'm not You're not even hearing me talking. Because life cannot
exist. We're dead to prop
From that wreckage
2012 was the hottest year in the United States since scientists
started keeping records. My guest Bill McKibben, our
nation's leading environmentalist,
we're building the kind of political movement that will
change things. as of tonight, we're taking on the fossil fuel
industry direct. These companies are the road force, we're no
longer at the point of trying to stop global warming too late for
that. We're trying to keep it from becoming a complete and
utter calamity. The carbon in the atmosphere greater than 350
parts per million is not compatible with life on Earth,
that strong language for scientists to use. Today, the
atmosphere is 395 parts per million. No fuel industry has
five times more oil and gas, it's safe to burn,
they are locking us into a future that we can't survive.
This is the biggest emergency the human family has faced since
it came out of the caves.
We came out of the cave, American High Street,
if they carry out their business plan, Planet tanks. Mr. Sands
are the turning point in our fossil fuel addiction.
I say it's criminal. And I say that my flight was subsidized
the fossil fuel industries,
and that is just financially and morally bankrupt.
We have to send the message that we are going to hold them while
we have a moral
catastrophe on our hands. What's at stake?
Is civilization itself.
This is the only question that won't matter in the long run.
We're all going to die. God.
So very interesting. Actually, we
cut that and put that voice at the end. We're all going
to die. I love it. If they execute their business plan.
It's all
business. You have your business plan over here, Billy? Yeah,
we're gonna kill.
Yeah, here it is. I got the PowerPoint right here, like go
to Slide eight, which is the kill the earth slide. That's
before our p&l, which is
gonna benefit us.
Before they, if they execute their business plan, they will
kill everybody on Earth.
So I started reading status
railer.
Well, I'll get to that in a second. So I looked up their
most recent this is pretty funny. This is their most recent
form 990. And this this company is I mean, this organization. So
the board of directors, Van Jones, who was the guy who was
Yeah.
All the usual suspects.
But here's what's interesting. So on the board of directors is
an actual dead person. Elizabeth Taylor, who last year according
to the report worked three hours. That's great. Let's be a
different let's No, no, no. Elizabeth Taylor. What are you
talking about the different one.
Now, this is some woman named Elizabeth Tino,
Naomi Klein, these are all some celebrities. Let me see if
Elizabeth.
So they dug her up from the grave. And somehow she worked
three hours
of Elizabeth Taylor
350 joke in there somewhere. I'm sorry. I couldn't just come up
with it instantly.
I'm gonna just see if she's, if she's if she's a member of this
or not. Elizabeth Taylor. I mean, I don't know. Well, I
don't know. Maybe it's a different Elizabeth Taylor than
but well, maybe just. Yeah, it seems.
Well, they have her on there. They have her down for three
hours according to their tax filing.
She died in March 23 2011. This was the 2011 thing.
Dude, it doesn't matter if it was 2012 or 2011. She was not
working into it in between January and March she was in
hospital dead. In the hospital in hospitals the way we say it.
Come on. Don't they have the board of directors here? And
let's see our sources.
Well, this is crazy.
And what would she do for three hours? I don't know.
Apparently something so because obviously sex perhaps to the
they made the 3 million than 3 million they brought in. It's
very interesting. We've talked about these guys before. But
anyway, it's a good I think I agree. I think it's a very good
trailer. What I think is interesting about this trailer
is they are actually kind of using conspiracy theorists type
language. Yeah. You know,
and editing. You know, it's like if they complete their business
plan, and this is exactly if the elites if the Rothschilds
complete their business plan. Every man, woman and child will
be enslaved
So I started reading state of fear by Michael Creighton. Oh my
god A must read book a must read for anybody. No one and they
probably killed him.
How did you die? That's what I was oh, how did he die with a
pricker?
What did he die of cancer cancer I oh my god and so this this
whole he actually equates the the global warming climate
change advertising call you what you want movement to the
eugenics program of the Nazis?
What's the what's the connection was killing people? Oh, now
there could be that. Yeah, well, they definitely want you know,
this is the same group that wants to cut the population. We
have too many people. Yes. I mean, it's, it's all these
people stem from the same basic movements, there was that Club
of Rome. So we had too many people there was that the zero
bomb or whatever was called that Stanford guy wrote about where
the population growth bomb, whatever it was called, that was
gonna we have too many people, we got to stop. And then there
was also the same group that had the climate change where was
global freezing, and we're gonna have a new ice age, and you
know, we can't won't be able to sustain all these people. And
now we can't sustain whatever because of you know, we've
everyone's gonna be dead. No, it's there's a large contingent
of, well, there's two, there's actually the way I see there's
two groups. There's the contingent that propagates these
messages in mean, can
I can I can I, what I would like to do is I'd like to read I'd
like to do a reader that dummies, can I do a reading? Oh,
I'd love to hear a reading. Can I do a little reading an excerpt
from state of fear? Yes. And you stopped me when it's boring.
Okay.
Go Well, you better be careful because sometimes I don't stop
you.
Imagine that there's a new scientific theory that warns of
an impending crisis and points to a way out. This theory
quickly draw support from leading scientists, politicians
and celebrities around the world. Research is funded by
distinguished philanthropies and carried out and prestigious
universities. The crisis is reported frequently in the
media, the science is taught in college and high school
classrooms. I don't mean global warming. I'm talking about
another theory, which rose to prominence a century ago. Its
supporters included Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson and
Winston Churchill. It was approved by the Supreme Court
justices Oh Oliver Wendell Holmes and Louis Brandeis who
ruled in its favor. The famous names who supported include
Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone activist Margaret
Sanger botanist Luther Burbank, Leland Stanford, founder of
Stanford University, the novelist HG Wells, the
playwright George Bernard Shaw, and hundreds of others. Nobel
Prize winners gave support research was backed by Carnegie
and Rockefeller Foundation's the cold springs harbor Institute
was built to carry out this research. But important work was
also done at Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford and John
Hopkins Hopkins, legislation to address the crisis was passed in
states from New York to California. These efforts had
the support of the National Academy of Sciences, the
American Medical Association, and the National Research
Council, it was said that if Jesus were alive, he would have
supported this effort. You gotta write that one down because
Jesus that'll come back for global warming. All in all, the
research legislation and molding of public opinion surrounding
the theory went on for almost half a century, those who oppose
the theory were shouted down and called reactionary blind to
reality, or just plain ignorant. But in hindsight, what is
surprising is that so few people objected. Today, we know that
this famous theory was game that gained so much support was
actually pseudoscience, the crisis is claimed was non
existent and the actions taken in the name of the theory were
morally and criminally wrong. Ultimately, they led to the
death of millions of people. The theory was eugenics, and its
history is so dreadful, and to those who are caught up, and
it's so embarrassing, that it is now rarely discussed, but it is
a story that should be well known to every citizen so that
its horrors are not repeated. This is literally from the book.
Yeah, this is good, good stuff. And then you read through what
eugenics is. It was essentially not letting weak people
crossbreed with strong people. And this is how the whole Jew
thing came about. Because the Jews were were seen as weak and
they had to be exterminated. All the science
science
was developed five states. That's right.
And we promoted it with the center with the same kind of
propaganda and oh, I'm on board or you're an idiot, the sciences
in everybody agrees that this is better. And we got to the point
where we're experimenting on the public we were, you know, giving
idiots syphilis and stuff, because you didn't give a crap.
Yeah. And it was dreadful. And it was, it was part of this
whole thing that was taking place in the 20s where they were
had the time motion studies and all the rest of it. There was a
very, very weird time in American history. But yeah,
everyone was on board. And then we'll ship don't say anything.
Nazis actually implemented yeah
HG Wells spoke against it will train swarms of inferior
citizens. Theodore Roosevelt said that society has no
business to permit degenerates to reproduce their kind. Luther
Burbank stopped permitting criminals and weaklings to
reproduce. George Bernard Shaw said the only only eugenics
could save mankind.
Right? This was an era of forced sterilization. Yeah, you'd go to
when you go to court, you'd have you know, been found guilty of
misdemeanor something rather and then they forced you to be
sterilized. Oh, you gotta cut the guy's balls off that'll
change things that'll fix it. So but just you don't have to worry
about his kids. But I
just love the comparison that that Crighton makes to the
current you know, You're crazy. You're You're shouted down it's
exactly the same thing. And what will this wind up doing? I think
this will eventually wind up killing people. This whole
climate change thing stop breathing. I'm sorry, you've had
too many breaths today. You have to limit your breathing anyway
Yep,
good book a reading by Adam Clark curry.
That was good. Thank you could do more readings we probably
should introduce that to the show.
Or maybe I should just do an audio book. Oh
apparently it is just you maybe you should Yeah, apparently it
pays to do it. I mean, it's apparently hours and hours and
hours and then they guys stop you and say when I can reread
that sentence oh god do I have to Yeah,
I would do it if only to have Leo have to promote me for
audible.com that would be enough reason
you'd have to do it on the sun this cutie I'd go on this show
and then I'd say I you know a book I play this and then he'd
see your name and free when did you do that?
So doctor now sir, sir Dr. Sharkey recent night of the no
agenda roundtable. He's you know, we have a number of
doctors, physicians who who produce the show, listen to it
and contribute. And so he's been following along with the war on
crazy that we've been talking about. And I just want to read
the email from he said, Adam, it's not just mental illness.
With physical illness, the so called experts keep changing
their definitions. When I started my training, diabetes
meant blood sugar higher than 200 then it was 140. Now it's
126. Then several years ago, they invented pre diabetes. The
number to meet that definition has gradually gone down to over
100 The same can be said for blood pressure and cholesterol.
And then he asked my doctor pointed out the cholesterol
conundrum he says they keep changing the number he says it
says they get they like max out the amount of drugs they can
prescribe and then they changed the number. Yeah, we got new
customers. Oh, we're gonna get new
customers. Customers change the number. Yeah, we got some new
customers love it.
It's genius. Oh, and
I finally figured out Max Keiser his angle on Bitcoin.
Okay, ready for it?
I'm ready. Here he
is with his girlfriend. i Maybe it's his fiancee. He apparently
he's he shooping Stacy. Is you know, that
was shooping. Who? Stacy Stacy Herbert is on the show. Yeah,
that's his girlfriend. Oh, let me see. Let me I guess I can't
remember what she looks like. Max.
Too good for him, I think
was her and Stacy. Images, Max Keiser and Stacy, you know, you
know who she is. She's got the short hair. He's always like,
oh, Max,
you're so funny.
She's like, Howard Stern's Robin. And uh, well
that woman Yeah, yeah.
So apparently they're their lovers or whatever. But that
doesn't matter. Anyway, so she kind of leads him into the
disclosure.
Now this is the wife someone's
yelling in the chat room. All right.
Winklevoss twins have invested. They own 1% of Bitcoin
apparently. And Cameron Winklevoss says, People say it's
a Ponzi scheme. It's a bubble. People really don't want to take
it seriously. At some point, that narrative will shift to
virtual currencies are here to stay. We're in the early days
now, Max, do you have a patent on virtual currencies? And this
is what we're going to talk about in the next episode. Who
Yeah, here's, I think we I think we, I forgot about the patent
but yeah, I didn't I didn't we kind of mentioned this, maybe
not
as a patent, but apparently he's he's licensed the patent to
Cantor Fitzgerald. Okay, so anyway, this is what is the
thing that the Some there's some Silicon Valley thing that
they're trying to launch Goonies or boonies or
they tried this with beans now
there's a new one we gotta laugh about it. It's a what is it?
Erica? She'll pointed this out to me, zoomies coin ease calm

the most popular royal couples in Europe. which is possibly why
this some has caused such a public outcry.
It was released to celebrate the start of Bilham. Alexander's
reign following his Mother Queen Beatrix abdication after 33
years on the throne, but many of their loyal subjects objects to
what they see are the unimaginative lyrics. I build a
dike with my bare hands and keep the water away through the rain
and the wind. I will stay close to say this style is to Disney.
Of course, it's Disney. It's like North Korea.
And then there's this unusual mix of musical genres.
Got a bunch of rappers in there.
