Oh yeah, you remember fat Betty Adam curry.
John C. Dvorak is Thursday, March 1 2018. This is your award
winning give nation media assassination episode 10.
This is no agenda.
Tracking All Black Widow movements and broadcasting live
from downtown Austin Tejas Capitol, the drone Star State in
the Caribbean. The Morning everybody. I'm Adam curry,
and from Northern Silicon Valley where it's raining cats and
dogs. I'm John C. Dvorak. Buzzkill.
Yeah, this is not like Europe it's so bad maybe even given up
on polar vortex and any other explanation that just like It's
damn cold people
barely snowing in Rome. Yeah. is
actually the UK somewhere.
They had on their TV that snowball fights in Ireland.
Yeah, that was never supposed to happen again, except in snow
globes. I wish we had a clip of that. It was never a clip. It
was an article. It was an article. Here we go. The NHS
that's the UK healthcare system. The bosses warn of Perfect Storm
minus 16 degrees centigrade blizzards, norovirus and flu is
piling pressure on overstretch hospitals amidst the worst
winter ever. Ah, about that, huh?
It's pretty bad. It's just there in November and it was freezing
then.
Yeah. Yeah. Well, we've always said Be on the lookout for the
Little Ice Age for global cooling. How they how they
laughed at us, John?
Well, we figured it was a plot to kill kill people because
there's nothing to do Ice Age is gonna kill people.
Yeah, I'd rather have it a little warmer. Honestly. I think
Texas is doing okay. But man still, he gets chilly here.
We're still sometimes in the 30s Oh,
you haven't really hit the 30 share at all.
Malford. Yeah. protects us. That's cool. How was it in the
future?
Well, let's see who's gonna go next.
I think we nailed it. John, I think is even better than I
expected. I
hate to gloat.
I hate to gloat. But, you know, here's, here's what we found out
with the Black Widow Hope Hicks resigning. It now it all falls
into place. Ivanka, Ivanka, that's Jared and Ivanka. You
know, they have a name together Jovanka. They want to General
Kelly out because he was in their way. He's telling him what
to do. He's got power. They don't like it. They got power
over daddy. Trump knows that. Jared is gotta get out. He's
totally toxic. And what's up with the way that guy of alien
who's totally toxic, doesn't get left out. You have more clips of
him talking? No, he No, he never talks or rarely. So Trump
doesn't have the heart to fire him because you know, Daddy's
girls husband. So he says, Kelly, what can you do? I got
it. And just to say downgrade. I mean, that's not just getting
rid of someone that's insulting them and kicking him on the way
out because like, once you go sit in economy class, you slave,
you've been downgraded. So Jovanka want Kelly out. Trump
doesn't have the heart to fire Jared and you can never fire
Ivanka. Of course, all this went down while she was conveniently
in South Korea makes so much sense.
Oh, by the way, just as a quick aside, sure. I'm watching the
Olympics word and she's like with the President and his wife
in South Korea in the same booth. And behind her is the
North as the North Korean woman. And when there's there's a bunch
of other people around there. But I have to say say they never
mentioned that they're panning and this there's the president
of South Korea. They never mentioned she's she's there, but
I have to say, and she looked great was she's wearing some
big, furry thing. She is so identifiable, Ivanka. Yeah. I
mean, in a crowd. It's like, it's like, wow, there's Ivanka
sitting right there. I didn't. I knew she was identifiable. I
didn't know how identifiable
she too looks a lot like an alien. She has a very she got
that sheen about her face. And anyway, she forget that. Let's
talk about what happened to the aliens. So Jared gets
downgraded, which is just beautiful. I mean, that's so
insulting. And of course the guy is toxic. And now we know what
was happening. Because Hope Hicks resigns in my mind. She
was indeed Jovanka spy, and she purposely dropped the news of
Porter, her boyfriend kind of having this abuse history and
got the blame pinned on to Kelly trying to get him out. That was
the whole strategy.
I believe you might I think it's a valid third, you want to
listen, let's listen to the we have the rundown here.
And by the way, I am shattered. Why? Come on the black widow,
she was great for the show.
There'll be other, we'll have other things. I don't know what
she's going to do. Well, before I play my whole picks clips, I
want to play this little little ditty here on BBC News, which is
on the top of the list. And I want you to tell me just a
little piece of discrepant information in here that I've
never heard
a reassuring presence for Donald Trump at the White House. And as
you say, it comes just after the day after it was announced that
Jared Kushner, his son in law has lost his clearance. Ivanka
Trump has lost her security clearance. You know, that inner
circle is shrinking. And that shirt that we've seen at the
White House is just unprecedented. Nick, Brian,
thanks for joining Nexi
I presumed it was true, but I hadn't heard it either. That
Ivanka also got downgraded.
I started looking into it. And I there was a there's a couple of
for one thing that Democrats had been calling since July,
you and I, you and I were calling for them to get out?
Well,
no, but the Democrats have been calling for specifically for
Ivanka to lose her security clearance. I couldn't find any
particular reason why, but they were bitching and moaning. And
then there was a couple of vague articles suggesting she might
have but it never got much legs. And if you have your your
communications director Hope Hicks, covering for for the day,
Ivanka. You would the news would never get out. But maybe it's
true. And this guy was just reporting it. It would
make nothing but sense. I'm sure there were several downgrades
that we didn't hear about the one that everyone cares about.
And I didn't clip it. But man, do they love giving out the
address of his building that he owes $2 billion to the to the
Chinese for? Yes. 666 Fifth Avenue. Yeah, no, I love this.
You'll never hear anyone talk about real estate that way. It's
always he's building in New York. He's building in Atlanta.
Now. It's 666 Fifth Avenue. You went 366.
Mark of the Beast, government base. So let's play Hope Hicks
ABC one this would be
Yeah, that major resignation at the White House Hope Hicks, the
President's longest serving aide with the President even before
his campaign, just 24 hours ago on Capitol Hill answering those
questions a source telling ABC News she told house
investigators she had occasionally told white lies for
the president. She is now stepping down.
Now this is another thing. You got to kind of start to listen
to the to the sources that say stuff. I mean, this is a closed
hearing meeting behind closed doors. And she's barely even
walked out. And they know that she said yes, I sometimes tell a
white lie. But yet there's no official source for this. How
does this work? Why was it even behind client closed doors if
they immediately had this information, if it's even true?
Where does it come from? or confirm it?
No, this was launched and I'm thinking, Ah,
there's a bunch of memes. In fact, if we listen to that's why
I divided this one. Yeah, this is no I want you to stop. This
is divided into four sections for reasons that are obvious as
we do it. But even within the sections, there is
misinformation, misdirection. whipsaws, especially with ABC,
NBC is just as bad but ABC is maybe the worst. And it's and
you listen to this, like, why are you bothering to do a hit
job? It makes no, no sense. And you start to realize it's really
very subtle. It's just like, it's like, no, it's
just this part of the part of the rotation. Trump's a liar
yet.
There's other stuff in here this kind of interesting,
occasionally told white lies for the president. She is now
stepping down tonight. The White House says the timing of this
resignation is coincidental. And tonight the growing list of
departures right there on your screen a little more than a year
into this administration, starting with Michael Flynn. The
firings? The resignations, one more keyname added to that list
tonight, Hope Hicks, ABC senior White House correspondent
Cecilia Vega, leading us well.
Less than 24 hours after Hope Hicks emerged from nearly nine
hours of testifying on Capitol Hill any collusion tonight the
President's closest aide and longtime confidant. Did someone
just yell any collusion
was that is a reason to
listen to nearly nine hours of testifying on Capitol Hill any
collusion tonight the President's closing.
I'm just gonna start saying that to people in general. Hi, I'm
Adam. Nice to meet you any collusion?
Any collusion collusion,
aide and longtime confidant unexpectedly resigning from her
role as communications director sending shockwaves through the
Westway the official line from The White House Hicks has been
thinking about leaving the job for some time and wants to spend
more time with her family.
Her family
now? Yes, her family. Now of course there's two or three
elements here that we're looking at besides what you've already
caught Yeah, I was when he was the obvious one which is any
somebody yelling? Lips you in any collusion it's like
Tourette's clip is that it's It's nuts.
It's this to put in your in the listeners mind that collusion
element, because it's really not in there. Otherwise, there's no
collusion information in any of those, but we might as well get
it and get in there. So we get to three things. You get the
Trump's a liar. We've got the collusion, which is artificially
inserted. And then we have the White House in a turmoil, which
is another checklist item,
but it was more than turmoil that she didn't say chaos, which
I had expected to what she What what did she say? Oh shockwaves
shockwaves shockwaves
is different than what they're describing because they show
these guys that were fired a lot of these people they've lost.
Yeah,
but it's alliteration with a W so it's shockwaves through the
White House, the West Wing sorry. Shockwaves in the West.
Yeah,
that's because they probably have somebody on the staff
that's, that's like you that really loves a lot of rich and
extreme and they should have used chaos. Yeah,
because that's that's the mean, but okay.
Okay, we go on, you got collusion, just crack. I
actually had to laugh out loud when that happened. You
shouldn't have it. So did any collusion actually should have
your right
it's just it's Tourette is great.
Okay, on to clip two.
But the news comes with Hicks under fire for that testimony,
telling congressional investigators under oath that
she occasionally told white lies on behalf of the President of
the United States. Thank you, Donald Trump. At 29 years old,
she became one of the most powerful players in the Trump
White House. Oh pics
is a tremendously talented person. She started off with us
right from day one
by the president side through the campaign. Hope Hicks was
hope hope coming home. Coming here hope get up here hope
kopecks the legendary hoping she's very shy. She's actually
she's a very shy person, but she's a great person. She's done
an amazing job.
Before that in Trump Tower as an assistant to the billionaire
businessman, a former model she joined the family working on
Ivanka Trump's fashion line. Now she helps run the White House.
Her handwriting right there on the President's note, reminding
him to tell those grieving families from Parkland I hear
you.
Okay, a couple of things here. First of all, is is the way they
they it wasn't a whipsaw. It's something else. And I don't know
what it is, but it's taking it. So you're so the stream of
consciousness rolls in a certain way. You're you're listening,
and you hear the following. If you just listen to the words, or
you just saw transcript would go like this. She admitted to
saying that she told white lies for the President. Thank you,
Donald Trump. Yep.
Whoa, this could put that in for no reason.
So in other words, thank you, Donald Trump for making me tell
white lies. I don't know what to put his subconscious is going to
deal with when he hears those two things in a row. But that's
what you heard. You heard. He told she told white lies. Thank
you, Donald Trump to build a wall. And then there was that
thing at the end, which is the
I'll play upon back it up. Back it up, you said
comes with now she helps run the White House. Her handwriting
right there on the President's note, reminding him to tell
those grieving families from Parkland I hear
you which is insinuating that the president can't even write
his own thank yous and I hear he can't
write his own notes he can eat and the stupid thing about say
thank you to everybody makes him sound like a complete moron. And
and whether she wrote that, I don't know. Did they? Did she
ever say she wrote her handwriting? Do we know for a
fact?
Well, I know I don't know about that. But I've looked at her
mannerisms, how she interacts with other people because I've
never heard her speak except for that one thing when Trump
brought her on stage.
That's what she says. Thank you, Donald Trump. That's
about it. I'll bet you she's really good at communications. I
have a no the profile kind of fits the way she interacts with
people. I think she'd be really good. And I bet she was good.
She probably good writer. She could
be but watch introduces a couple more topics in the next part,
special mini clip.
Within minutes of news of her departure, the president
releasing a statement saying she's as smart and thoughtful as
they come a truly great person. I will miss having her by my
side. But when she approached me about pursuing other
opportunities, I totally understood Chief of Staff John
Kelly calling Hicks strategic poise and wise beyond her years
to say that she will be missed, isn't it? understatement, but
her tenure in Washington not without scandal, Hicks was
involved in crafting a misleading statement about that
now infamous Trump Tower meeting between Don Jr. and the
Russians.
This one Yeah. Now now because she apparently crafted the memo
that said, we don't know nothing.
Wait, let's get this. Let's back up on now. All right. What
wasn't the same media accusing Donald as the one who did that
memo that he wrote the whole thing and Jared? Or Don Jr. is a
moron or Eric's a moron he could write if you want. He
wrote it. Yeah, I remember he wrote it and pasted it into an
email. So Jr. could just go Oh,
yeah, that's what I heard all of a sudden she crafted it.
Yeah. She may be down to you may hold the key to everything. And
let's say, with a meeting
with the Russians, or were they meeting with this Russian lawyer
that are a lawyer from that's just the Russians, Russia,
they're there with the Russian salad dressing.
It's gotten pretty crazy, you know? Just as an aside, now, all
of a sudden, there's the MSNBC. I've been been watching them
every day starting. Yeah, like 630 in the morning.
Yeah, you better take something. Yeah. You get the bombs. I got
the
bomb. Now you now you know what protects me? The holy earth
protects me from the beat. So now it's well, you know, Donald
Trump called for Russia to hack Hillary's emails, and they play
the little soundbite out of context, of course, because it
was a joke, of course, doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. And
now they're saying and then two days later, they published those
emails, the Russian WikiLeaks, but those were the DNC emails.
They're even confused about which emails they're talking
about. It's just going round and round and round in circles and
all day. Yeah, they do that? Well, there's a bunch of I got
some more clips later on the show that, again, they bring in
old stuff, and they try to try to shoehorn it into whatever
their narrative is. I use the word but I have to. And it's
just, I guess it works if you're really stupid.
I would say most people at this point are they've been
stupefied. Well,
they'd been stupefied. So let's go to finish this. This guy up.
More
recently, she was at the center of the firestorm over the
departure of former staff Secretary Rob Porter, I posted
amid domestic violence allegations.
And you know, remember that she's the one that least that
was the reporting that she wrote the press announcement about
this mean? Either she did it just said Hey, Rob. Boyfriend.
Yeah, sorry. You got to do this for me, because we got to get
Kelly out for the for the country. Or, just like if she
was also with Lewandowski I believe she was dating him on
the campaign. She's just as dangerous a dangerous person
more time with their family. Yeah. But he's gonna orangey I
mean, I don't understand but if
she actually, you know, use this guy. And remember, there was
everyone was was blown away by this like, holy crap. Of course,
it was a PR disaster couldn't get away from it. But the way it
went, boom. All of a sudden, you know, she's dating him. We find
that out. Boom. The guy has abusive background boom. John
Kelly is an asshole for hiring him. We got to get Kelly out.
Get Kelly out. It seemed so coordinated.
Think they weren't Kelly out. But who is they?
Jovanka? Yeah, they just Well, anyway, doesn't matter. I'm
sorry for taking us on a detour? No, no,
I think I think it needs to be discussed. And I kind of
reminded by there was somebody else that was working out there
was Ben Banyan. He was having he was butting heads with Kelly
too. And he because he and there was somebody else that felt like
it. Well, if he was gone away with somebody else that was or
as maybe everybody thought they could go in and out in and out
and Kelly says no, you can't keep going in and out. And now
we got things to do here.
Yes. And if you remember the special interview I did with
Steve pathetic. The Kelley is the deep state guy from military
intelligence who are running this president. And from the way
I see it. I think they got every douchebag out at this point. I
don't think there's any more potential risks left. Are there
is anyone is there anyone left from the Trump Tower scene?
No, but Conway might be Conway still in
there but she says she's a political operative. She's been
around.
Yes, true. So she and she probably goes along with the
program. Sure, she does but it's just the hangers just Ivanka
hanging out those two. And they were you old they've been
downgrade So now it's another great angle in the office. I
know no classifier. We're doing classified stuff.
Get out. Get out of here. Get out of here you.
So they haven't been completely driven out, but I think it's
happening.
Yeah, maybe maybe we'll get down to business. Now finally, when
all the morons hanging around
more recently, she was at the center of the firestorm over the
departure of former staff Secretary Rob Porter ousted amid
domestic violence allegations, Porter and hope were dating and
she helped craft the administration's defense of him
when the news broke. Tonight, the White House says none of
that is linked to her departure. The timing, just coincidence.
So let's get to Cecilia Vega live with the White House
tonight and Cecilia Hope Hicks releasing a statement of her own
tonight.
David she is she says there are no words to adequately express
her gratitude to President Trump. Not that long ago right
here in the West Wing. She cheerfully thanks, West Wing
staffers. She is a very beloved member of this administration.
Her office was right outside President Trump's Oval Office.
We can't emphasize enough how much of a trusted adviser she
was to him. Her actual departure date could still be weeks off,
David but this has been a very key role and a tough one for
this White House to fill Hope Hicks is now the fourth
communications director to come and go.
I think it was Rachel Maddow had a huge screen on full screen
last night with tiny little print of all the people who had
been kicked out and then had communications director another
communications directors yet another communications director.
They just love it.
cluded Scaramucci Of course, of course. Well, even really a
communications director is there for some other purpose. We're
never sure right. Or to help get rid of somebody. It was just
somebody else had to go I know is does Spicer resident spy Yes.
Spicer he was there the longest? Yeah, he had to get by? Yeah.
Because he was a bonehead. Right. Right. And so scary.
mooch came in to get rid of him and went on Oh, rants previously
had to get rid of rants, Priebus. That was the target.
Right. And so scare mooch came in and then kept accusing rants
previous of being the leaker. Yeah, last apparently was Well,
sadly,
I think that what? And I really mean sadly, I think that now
that we have the military in control of the White House,
because that's the way I see it. Yeah. Why? Well, if
you look around, just seems to be an extraordinary number of
military guys, including the Chief of Staff.
Yeah. Can we can I move off the black widow to go where I want
me to go with this, then we
might as well let me see. Let me just double check. So I don't
bring an old clip in later. I don't think I have any more
clips on
her. All right. Yeah. So well, with Kelly in charge. And we've
seen the build up in Afghanistan. But we still have
this issue in Syria. And mind you this is about the Golan
Heights oil. It's about this deal about the pipelines and we
and we have to come up with some kind of ruse to make sure that
we can stay there. And we've already heard the rumblings Oh,
yeah, chemical weapons, chemical weapons. And now this
new evidence tonight of a sinister partnership between Kim
Jong Hoon and the murderous regime of Syrian President
Bashar Al Assad. A United Nations source tells CNN, North
Korea has been sending supplies that can be used to produce
chemical weapons to Syria. The source says a new unreleased UN
report based on a secret investigation found that parts
including valves and thermometers used to turn those
chemicals into deadly bombs have been shot by Kim's regime.
very alarming because North Korea, the world's largest
stockpile of chemical weapons, and the technology to produce
it, and Syria has repeatedly used come holo.
What Wait, wait, wait. What did he say?
Well, let's listen again. Let's go to the videotape.
It's very alarming because North Korea has the world's largest
stockpile of chemical weapons.
I thought we got rid of the chemical weapons.
We got rid of the chemical weapons in Syria. Oh, north. Now
North Korea has the largest Have you ever heard this before? No,
it's from
a secret report from sources. So how could we know we don't know
nothing?
Now let's just stop for a second there making North Korea ought
to be the bad guy in every way they can. And so do you think
they'd be under massive scrutiny? Now we know that they
have not just some chemical weapons but the world's they
have the world's biggest supply more than we have? Yeah. What do
you really shut
up? For you asking questions. It's from The Secret Report. And
we know it apparently. I think he actually says we know those
chemicals into deadly bombs have been shipped by Kim's regime.
It's very
alarming because North Korea has the world's largest stockpile of
chemical weapons and the technology to produce it. Oh,
and Syria has repeatedly used chemical weapons and continues
to do so against its own people.
So this is fantastic. You can blame the bad guys that are on
checkable and then wahala. You know, if he's doing it against
his own people, he's doing it again.
Right, let's, let's remind everybody about the research
that was done on that, that that first chemical attack that they
tried to where the red line Yeah, John. Yes. Because the
Obama administration was debunked by every known expert
in the world. These bombs were not from Syria. They were from
the rebels. They
sent the chemicals to Northern England, they were checked out,
and the minute the results came back, Obama forgot about the red
line, because he didn't want to attack under false pretense.
Okay, well, I'll give him that or ignore those old facts. We
need new facts.
Well, luckily, this came up in the State Department briefings,
you get this clip, by the way, let's see an end. And I think
CNN is all in on it. They've got Barbara Starr at the Pentagon,
Wolf Blitzer. With IDF. We've got Anderson Cooper with CIA,
CNN is just one big hornet's nest of bullcrap. So, you know,
this is total propaganda.
And so we got to get nobody watching it, that network.
not doing that bad. Heather nauert, the who's the only other
QD left in the administration. Now that the Black Widow is
gone. But so Heather, who has an interesting style, she's asked
the question about this. And about this report. There's a
report in The New York Times in North Korea, it's called New
York Times. Yeah, let's let's not forget the
New York, New York is Oh, yeah, there's a report in The New York
Times that North Korea has been shipping supplies to Syria that
can be used in or for producing chemical weapons. I want to know
if you're familiar with that report, what your reaction is?
I've certainly seen that report. That is something I've seen
reports of that report. Let me say that, because the actual
report itself has not been released. This is something that
the United States has had concerns about for quite some
time, that North Korea especially as North Korea
becomes more desperate, that they look for different
creative, and horrific ways to try to make money to fund their
criminal regime. And when I say criminal regime, I mean, their
illegal nuclear and ballistic missile programs, if they are
selling goods, material, whatever you want to call it, to
Syria, of that regime, and that is exactly why we stand so
firmly behind our policy of denuclearization on the part of
this administration and on behalf of the world.
And I love how typically like Well, that is a report that you
know, no one has seen that's just from sources. You don't
know nothing. I haven't seen it. But it's like, Well, I haven't
seen it. But I heard the reporting sounds sounds right to
me. wrote this story at the New York Times. Yes. Well, this is
well, this is interesting. It's written by Oh, that's the LA
Times. I'm sorry. I want the New York Times. Book. Okay. Where is
it? That's interesting. Oh, geez, I can't get it with Bing.
It can't be it. No, I
can't bring it. Here we go. You okay, so they're saying U N
links Korea to Syria's chemical weapons program. So this is a
united accord. This is all according to a United Nations
expert. Michael Schwartz, S C H W AR tz. And looks like the UN
is his Beat. Beat Yeah, yeah.
What else do you want me to say boss?
So this sounds like a you know, I'm sad about this. Also,
soldiers in the UK are now getting anthrax vaccinations due
to the North Korea threat. Which they watch. Yeah, they
typically don't know, they're experts, or they're not only gas
and nukes. And these guys, they load their
load and load them up with anthrax. Really? Uh huh. And
then, you know, what also happened in at the Olympic Games
is the main niggle our our main negotiator who speaks with North
Korea and tries to work with the North and the South. He quit.
And no one wants to talk to the North Korean sub I feel a setup
coming and I don't like it at all. I think we're going to do
some more nasty business. Right, right. And Syria to protect the
interests in this case again of the big resource companies.
I would I wouldn't be able to argue.
Yeah, it's sad. It's sad. That's coming. Okay, entre entre mom
time. Oprah Winfrey. Now last I heard she was not going to run
for president a but I think she's changing her mind. Oh,
yeah. USA Today big profile piece. Not only just an article,
but they did a whole video with Oprah. And I'd like to share
that with you will Oprah Winfrey run for president? Today it's
Megyn Kelly Shal media hope her speech wasn't even over yet
before Oprah 2020 started trending people saying that she
should be running for president in the next election, that if we
could have someone like Donald Trump win with no political
experience, certainly Oprah should be running and it
actually picked up a lot of steam.
Point 7 million tweets about Oprah 24 hours. Wow,
this is already out there. This is already out there. Okay. It
says Oprah 2020 Oprah 2020 Yes. Like the speech hit me I had a
little tear in my eye. Since then,
we've heard statements from Oprah saying that she doesn't
have any intention of running for the presidency. It's just
not in my spirit. It's not my DNA. While we certainly have no
reason not to believe her talking to her recently, it's a
little bit more nuanced. I pay attention. When you have that
many people saying something. I thought, Well, gee, I've never
in my life ever, ever imagined that I would be in politics. And
I've always said no, no, no, no, no. Am I supposed to at least
look at that question. Because I had enough people billionaires
calling me up saying, I can get you a billion dollars. I can run
your campaign. And I actually went into prayer about it. Like
God, if you if you think I'm supposed to run, you gotta tell
me and it has to be so clear
that not even I could miss it.
Now. I hope so. She's
actually talking to God. No, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no. She's waiting for him to talk back
which Joy Bay hardware consider mentally ill. Yeah, I mean, how
crazy is These people are nuts.
J Bay are
Mike Pence here. When he speaks to God and He speaks back. He's
mentally ill. Oprah says God you make gotta make it loud enough
for me to hear she's not mental.
Well, not a Republican.
I know that. I hope. Every night I say a prayer. Please let Oprah
run
please. Oh, yeah, that was the greatest thing ever. Please
it could you imagine Oprah Trump debate? Oh, man. Oh, this would
be so beautiful.
I likelihood of this getting that far is nil.
Really? I'm not so sure. I'm not so sure about that.
It's just a publicity stunt. It may be the following if that's
what they said about Trump. I never said it. They actually
never said it.
They they I that was that sounded pretty serious.
I think the following could be in play. Let's bring up Oprah's
profile politically. See what you know what kind of money you
can dream up get to you know, she does not like she needs the
money. But dig up a bunch of money, get a bunch of support,
and then figure out who to really run and then have Oprah
throw her support behind that person to give them an extra
boost, like a
moon chin. Okay, well, if you could name one person who has
Oprah has is the book Oprah's the bookmark right now. Right?
But she's not yet. Well, how about this? The place? Oh, no,
I think she's the anoint her.
Okay, place holder and anointed. Yeah.
When Oprah says, Yes, you my child are the chosen one. But
I'm still going to pray. It will be so beautiful. And I know she
would fix the Austin library of our homeless Rob. Oh, we
need a report on that. I
went. I went. Well, you done? What with the with which topics?
You got to be more on Oprah.
I have nothing. No, you had me jacked up about the whole idea.
Well, I
just thought the whole report showed some serious interest in
her from certainly from
day, the media being completely insane. You don't realize that
Donald Trump was fake running for president since the 90s.
Yes. Like he just came up with but okay, go out. Okay. Little
background before you discuss the library. Yeah.
And I looked at the clip you sent me it really wasn't wasn't
good for the background or so I don't have a clip. But when we
when this 20 120 $5 million library was planned. In Austin.
The main question that appeared is well will it just be like the
old library which was set kind of in the park setting, so it
was much easier for you know, people experiencing homelessness
to to kind of walk up and hang out. This place is huge. And so
I wanted to go see it. The people were very worried about
what was going to happen with awesome librarian. We heard that
worried about you. No one's worried about me. So the place
is big. And it's interesting is the common areas and the I would
say conference areas because it seems to be quite a business.
They have multiple conference rooms, where you can do I guess
anything from 50 people to probably they got a 250 cedar.
Each each floor of these five floors is like huge open space
with places to sit and hang out. And then what seems like a third
of the space is books on the other side. So I went in, I
hadn't been into the library. It's good that they have books.
Yeah, but it seems like there's more space for conferences and
hanging out than books. Oddly meetups, every floor had at
least three clearly identifiable people experiencing
homelessness. So I saw about 15, maybe 17. And this is 11:30am
When I went and, and I'll say that these look to me, like
people who actually are experiencing homelessness,
there, they don't seem to be crazy strung out on drugs.
That's definitely not a good smell. And then, you know, some
are dead. They're just hanging out.
Even reading, like, get opportunity to read a line.
I didn't see anybody reading I didn't see anyone assisting with
helping them with resources to find a way out of the problems
they're in there was none of that. And people just ignore
them just walk by.
So you ain't even begging.
No, no, no one was begging. But it was very sad. You know, I
just got a sad emotion over me when I saw it. Like, yeah, there
you go. Austin. The the outpost of liberals doing so well, for
our citizens? No, nothing, nothing at all. And these are
really in the most of them are older.
You get to it. Yeah, there will be a 450s
I'd say 50. Now, thanks. I'd say 60s. Most of naming it you say
I'm just one donation Away,
away from being in the library.
But I'm going to go again, I'm going to keep an eye on it. I
just in all the pre promotion about a year ago for this
library. Oh, we're gonna have all kinds of resources will help
everybody. There's none of that going on. Nothing at all. None
of it. They're just being ignored. No one wants to deal
with them. People walk by and just like San Francisco. And
just step over them. No one cares.
Yeah, it was Travis's would be pooping in the library.
Now, well, who knows? Who knows how far this will go. But I do
see what was this? I saw an article in the Times I think.
Yes, New York City libraries. They're now handing out Narcan.
In fact that there's a law. Cuomo signed a bill into law
that added libraries to the list of institutions, like schools
that are authorized to possess and use Narcan
anyone can possess and use it.
I'm just telling you that's what it says. I don't see why you
couldn't maybe if it's federally funded.
Okay, wish some something like that.
And I wonder if that'll happen if we'll have a cup our first
overdose in the Austin library I have no idea how the I'm sure
it's bad but you don't hear much of us go the
other direction anytime students from what I can tell no, no.
There is no one there helping these people exit experiencing
homelessness.
No, they don't know what to do. So Well, that was a boring
report.
Make it all snazzy like oh, there were people die. But no,
no bicep the guy peed on my leg.
All right. All right. Didn't want to have to go peed on my
leg. I didn't want to have to pull this out this early. But
I'm gonna do it. I'm pulling it out. I have here. A clip that I
believe will annoy you to no end. Are you ready to hear my
clip that will annoy you? Yes, I'm waiting. Okay, stand by and
listen to Ella Fitzgerald. Annoying John C. Dvorak telling
you in my humble sash that when you said you imagine
So I think this is a fractal somehow.
Because we have sure loaded up there didn't she and four of
them
and the song is from 161 or something. It may
be early or I mean, Elif is Joe is at her peak pretty much in
the 40s.
Yeah, but and but how about the,
and by the way, when you hear her very early stuff, which I
think may go back into the 30s, but I'm pretty sure it does. And
she was one of the best singers in the history of the of the
country.
She was, but she's using words like devotion. So this is just
something old coming back again.
Yes. Now that you brought that clip in Sure. I had no idea but
that song I'll
look it up. It says wonderful smile. Oh, that's
one of the that's during that era when they did these long
intros before they actually sang the song. Oh, I didn't know
that. Yeah, there was a period of effect that came and went
Crosby did it for a while he came in the 30s. Mostly they
would eat present. They introduced the song with a bunch
of blather. And then they kick it Okay, kick it in. Someone's
like James Brown yelling hit it. And the song bring it up, right.
And so they gave the introduced a song with a bunch of bull crap
at the front end of it. And then they they bring the song and it
wastes almost 30 seconds.
Oh, man, what a horrible trend. That was.
I guess any examples? So I ran into I just I will say this.
Since you brought it up, and I'm yakking about this. And the
reason I'm yakking about in the first place is because I did
discover a cache of Paul white man and Benny Bing Crosby and a
lot of
was this an online cache or was buried in someone's backyard
thing from I think 1925 to 1935, which is the era where all this
cool stuff took place. This was a torrent. It was available as a
torrent but it was all of it. It was on archive.org they have on
one in one archive, they've got every single Paul Whiteman song
from that era, and every single Crosby song from that era. And
then that led me because I was looking for something else. That
led me to something I'm gonna recommend, which I think is oat
Oh, tr cat and I believe is.com o TR cat, Old Time Radio catalog
has got the most astonishing collection, obscurities that I
have ever seen. They have like every single this or every
single that that he sells. He sells a huge collections of and
is always an mp3 form and it will send you a CD of like 1000s
of things for eight bucks. This guy but wait,
if you order now he'll send you two CDs with 1000s of things for
just eight bucks.
It's unbelievable. What this guy's collected as good. I've
been in contact now. Do
you now do you actually sit and listen to these and go ha ha ha
ha sometimes
they do. chuckle there are some old radio plays I really enjoy.
But there is the thing I got in contact with this. I hate to go
into this obscure.
Yeah, it's pretty damn obscurity. And you know, you
thought the library report was boring.
This, I will mention this that apparently he has anyone who's
collected OTDR knows that the series of radio shows called the
fat man. Done by this American actor. He grabbed up all the
copies and all the transcripts and destroyed every bit of them
and all you can get from fat man is stuff from Australia and
remakes, but he says there's some that were discovered
recently.
I'm just so excited. Anyway, I do have your annoying word of
the day. But I'm going to try and do that trying to annoy you
every show. And your annoying word of the day is sich as in
what's the sitch John Oh, I'm going to use that. What's the
search? You get the sitch? Well, the switch is from Oh man. Oops,
it was a it was a cartoon. Was that Inspector Gadget? No, no,
no, no, no, he was there's some cartoon girl hopefully the troll
room will know. Everybody this
bit yeah, that will do it too, by the way and I have to know
where it comes from. Yeah, because
I got it. I got it. I got it. Kim Possible. Kim Possible came
possible so what's the secret everybody? Impossible. What's
the sitch? Okay, she was kind of hot
to cartoon character.
Okay, back to the bomb. Okay. Oh, Alrighty then.
That was enlightening. Yes, when people learn something you
always learn something on the show. I was
once again delight He did with the little show that we had the
other day. When Trump I think this is his new thing I like it,
just like was DACA which strangely, we don't hear
anything about it anymore. I'm sure the deadlines coming up in
a week or so we'll start hearing about it. But you know, he
brings in everybody, all the senators and the ones, you know,
the, the ones that he likes or whatever it is. And then let's
talk about this on live television. It was so cool
yesterday.
You thought so I got a clip.
I got a clip, this playground. Which clip is it?
Trump on guns divide and conquer ABC.
As you know, the other Firestorm tonight, Republicans reacting at
this hour to what they saw from the President today at the White
House. He was sitting with Republicans and Democrats on
guns and school safety saying he supports what many of the
Democrats support universal background checks, among other
things pushed by the students and families in Parkland,
Florida. But tonight, many in his own party are now living.
Jonathan, word. Before the television cameras at the White
House, the most pro NRA president in history gathered
together a group including some of Congress's most forceful
advocates of gun control,
and I see some folks that don't say nice things about me and
that's okay. Because if you turn that into this energy,
I'll love you. But don't care. And sitting in that room, the
president repeatedly took positions that put himself at
odds with the NRA and Republican leaders in Congress. He embraced
Connecticut Democrat Chris Murphy's call for background
checks on all gun purchases, and idea Republicans have voted down
again and again.
Yeah, I thought that that to me was not the best part. The best
part is this.
So just curious as to what you did in your bill. We don't we
didn't we didn't address it as presently I think because you're
afraid of the NRA. It's a big issue right now. A lot of people
but a lot of people a lot of people are afraid of that issue
raising the age for that weapon to 21
So you're afraid of the NRA? I love the guy's face. That was
that was Oh yeah.
Well, the things they talked about it's that one topic that
raising the age is the only thing everyone's concerned about
not because it means anything but because there is a an actual
calculation of lost sales that you can make Yes, it's a huge
issue is huge for the money
but if we now look at what happened with right pretty much
the same day there was no waiting this we don't wait
anymore to politicize dead children. Why bother? This is
moved straight into the new cycle. Here is the his Nadine
Smith. She is really one of the hijackers of the kids original
March idea which was planned for April that she now shows up as
the leader of the no NRA money campaign. But she's really from
equality Florida, and she runs a whole bunch of other different
nonprofits, some of which, yes, indeed are funded by our
Hungarian friend. And I think the the politicization was
purely for one goal to defund not the NRA but to de fund
Republicans who take the NRA money and you know this shaming
and calling out and you know, you have to stand with everybody
and say I pledge I won't take money from the NRA at the same
time defunding the NRA by you know getting they definitely
have some issues with the insurance companies who were you
know who run their their big gun insurance if you kill somebody
insure shoot somebody insurance as well as you know, all of
their partners I think it was was a pretty well coordinated
attack. I don't think it's enough. They gotta keep it
going. Because they, they have to show continuously that
Republicans are taking NRA money. Well, here's this little
exchange on am Joy before she goes off the air cancel too bad.
Well, very
simply, we are aiming to break the stranglehold that the NRA
has strived to hold rational gun policy. We know what to do to
stop these mass shootings. We know what to do like because we
are in this country. We've we've banned assault weapons. You
know, the things that Marion hammer said lead us inevitably
to a road where our children go to school in armored trucks
with, you know, rifle towers in every school. That is not the
path that Americans want. And I think the students, the
survivors of the Parkland shooting are saying it in the
most compelling way they've said that politicians have abandoned
us and we demand better and we have failed young people by
letting the NRA dictate policy all across this country and
block the things that we know work to save lives.
Did you hear that she went from we know what to do right into we
need to block the NRA was nothing else. But that was some
things where we need to block the NRA that's going to stop
people from killing BT children. So
no NRA money is two things. It is a pledge by candidates that
they will not accept NRA money or support. And it is a pledge
by voters that we will vote against any candidate who takes
even money from Iowa voters.
We believe I would vote against any candidate that took a
pledge. I'm not voting for somebody who's going to take
pledges and be and have to abide by somebody else's what they
want. I want them representing me and my community. That's what
I'm doing my elected officials. I don't want them having I
didn't like the guy who's doing that no more taxes pledge to
that guy who's kind of disappeared from the scene. Why
might Why is that guy taking the pledge to someone that's not in
our community. He's representing us. He's not representing these
people. He's taken plastic a pledge. I'm pledging No, I'm not
gonna play I'm not gonna do and take their money. Oh, crap. I
agree with you.
It's two things. It is a pledge by candidates that they will not
accept NRA money or support. And it is a pledge by voters that we
will vote against any candidate who takes even a penny from the
NRA. We believe that we've got to draw that line very, very
clearly. Is your is your campaign, Florida based or are
you trying to take this national? No, this is
nationalist and grassroots effort.
It's grassroots. Yeah, it's real grass roots on grass roots.
In particular, who said we've got to draw this?
Yes. It's also the Sandy Hook parents. What's the Bloomberg
money Michael Bloomberg. That's what is it called? I'll come up
with a
line in the sand and so forward to hearing from candidates of
the country. Not just in in progressive areas. But in deep
red, Pennsylvania, a retired Police Sergeant and Army vet
who's running for the assembly was the first so we think this
is the moment the tide changes.
Yeah. And they're they really are all over Yeah, and this is
all part of the 2018 elections these they're not only the are
abusing these children, they're really sucking the life energy
out of these children. I mean, really been putting your
Have you ever looked at Soros? Do you think he's he's alive
with blood of children? Buy love infant blood?
Quickly, let's play the ball. He's gonna play an
example of how horrible these children's lives are now with
their parents abusing them putting them on television and
I want to go to teach you with a gun. Oh, good.
NPR. Oh, yeah. Let's put my kid on NPR. This is just the
beginning of a little segment, which they put together
there's no such thing as a little segment on NPR but okay.
Hold on a second. Now there's two clips Yes, here we go.
Sorry. Just the amount of the wrong clip. Here we go. The past
few weeks. My house has been command central for supplies for
teachers whose rooms were shot up and may never be reopened.
More markers intercoms, car, cars, cars taking markers. This
is my life now. Helping my mom organize supplies from around
the country. Then meeting up with friends before canceling.
Oh my god. Did you guys hear munchkins and coffee? Den
speaking at a rally or visiting memorials in the park? dangling
from social media to check my posts about gun control.
Just listen. John, can you just listen? It's much sadder than
this.
I'm checking Twitter right now and over 2200 people have seen
my tweet. And 46 people have liked it. 20 people have
retweeted it. And now I'm wondering what my other tweets
look like so I'm gonna go to oh, this my mom.
Hey, Mom. Hi, honey.
My mom has been checking in with me a lot. Her name is Lisa
Glassman. Okay so how are you feeling right now? For real?
Tell me what's going on in your mind and stuff.
Sounds like the Kardashian mother almost like oh, hey kid,
we're unreal radio. Let me tell me for real How you doing? How
you really feeling what's in your mind and stuff? This is
child abuse.
A lot. A lot is going on in my mind. Obviously. There's so much
that I have to think about going back to school. Me My twitter
life. My activist life.
Poor kids. They got Twitter lives activist lives and their
beings were
life. This is my activist life. Yes,
sir. Yeah, God. Yeah.
That's just, you know, we don't have the category but I'd give
you a pathetic Tweet of the day Oh yeah it is that bad. All
right.
Teacher with a gun story this well I
don't know there's another thing I've chosen another thing that
was the
white let's just stick with the teacher and the gun thing for
okay let's talk about this the teacher with the gun Story Part
One this was Was
this the coincidental event right after Trump said
we should arm teachers and to a new school scare we're following
tonight this time a teacher with a gun himself inside his gun
and what other categories could we think? Teacher with a deal
dog teacher with a chainsaw What else could the teacher have?
And to a new school scare the following tonight this time a
teacher with a gun barricaded himself inside his classroom and
then firing the shot students running in fear. And here's ABC
Steve Olson saw me on that front.
This was the panic this morning during third period at Dalton
High School north of Atlanta after police say this popular
social studies teacher had a breakdown and locked himself in
an empty classroom with a handgun. He was telling people
to go away. The principal who was outside the door says that
53 year old Randall Davidson wasn't making sense and fired a
bullet through a window. They immediately evacuated the school
everybody started screaming and some teacher says Get Out Get
Out. And we all just started running out and I left
everything my bookbag we didn't finish eating
the school's armed security officer was off campus the only
person with a gun was the teacher
well done. Yeah, that's a beautiful coincidence just
beautiful.
This was done because Trump has said the we should arm teachers
who got it made this story a coincidently comes up showing
that if a teacher has a gun he can. They'll go nuts. And by the
way, I kind of agree with that. I think in today's school
system, the teachers are so liberal and left. Yeah, that. I
don't know if anyone could even touch a gun without getting the
shakes off a gun. Oh,
well, there's this thing on this going viral. It's it's not
Anderson Cooper himself. It's, it's almost like a lookalike of
Cooper. It's a CNN piece. And it's, you know, the reporter
goes and learns how to shoot an AR 15 It's really fun. It's
hilarious and his meal is
the part. I want to talk about that but let's play clip. Part
two of this clip because there's that element in here. I have to
ask you about the police say
the teacher agreed to surrender. Police tonight are announcing
charges including aggravated assault and carrying a weapon on
the school grounds. The teacher has not yet entered a plea.
Okay, aggravated assault.
I don't think you can be firing a weapon through the window at
school. They got to call it something
they call it fire Ed discharging a firearm within the city limits
which almost all cities have that regulation. That's maybe
there's more to destroying school properties and other
things. Maybe there's more. Assault involves assaulting
someone. Maybe
there's more to the story. You don't know?
Well, it's there's more to the story. Hey, why am I listening
to this network news reported that you're not going to tell me
what that more to this story is?
Well, you do that because that's your job. That's what I do. It's
what we both do.
Here. Now apologist, you're an apologist rapists see,
well, how about this then? NBC, MSNBC, think it's a very bad
idea as well. They all do. But yes, but not for the reasons you
might think. You see, because the teachers will be outfitted
with a handgun, which is obviously very inferior compared
to an AR 15. Let's take a
look at what teachers will be up against if they were armed with
a handgun and confronted with a weapon like an AR 15 and ar 15
style rifle. Well, that's a semi automatic weapon, meaning the
fire it fires one round when the trigger is pulled, then
automatically reloads the chamber, making it ready to fire
again. Handguns can also be semi automatic, but some like
revolvers. They're not meaning it can take a lot longer to fire
multiple rounds. Another big difference, the speed of
bullets, the AR 15 can fire bullets between 20 803,000 feet
per second, a nine millimeter handgun between 711 100 feet per
second. The AR 15 can hold much more ammunition so
it's the bullets come out this fast. Yeah, so if you shoot at
the same time, you'll never kill them because you'll be dead
first and
then a handgun. A typical ar 15 magazine holds 30 bullets while
a nine millimeter handgun holds 15 magazines that hold more are
available for each firearm. One doctor who has seen ar 15
injuries gives a stark comparison of the damage each
firearm can do to a person's body. She says quote, routine
handgun injuries leave an entry and exit wound and linear tracks
throughout the victim's body that are roughly the size of a
bullet. When she saw the damage from a Parkland victim, she said
the Oregon looked like an overripe melon smashed by a
sledgehammer with extensive
bleeding. Ah, thanks for that. Now you will
deluded Chris report. It says, you know, the idea is that you
have some things, something to protect yourself and you can,
you know, wing the guy or shoot him It doesn't make any
difference the speed of the bullet as long as you hit him,
but let's listen to Larry or Donald's interpretation.
Unbelievable.
Let's listen to Larry's interpretation. Tell me what's
wrong here.
2000 hammering,
stop the hammering 2182 miles per hour. That's how fast the
bullets were moving. When they came out of the barrel of that
ar 15.
How fast were they going?
Just 200 or 2000 miles per hour?
Yeah, feet per second. Maybe 2000 miles per hour.
I did the math.
But 2700 feet per second.
Okay, well, that's different.
That's the you have a sonic boom.
Yeah, what do you would at 2000 miles an hour?
He's full of crap. 2182
miles per hour. That's how fast the bullets were moving. When
they're cherry barrel?
It's, yeah, maybe you can make it maybe it is maybe? Well,
let's
think about it. It just didn't. I don't want to do the math.
It's just well,
but if it's 2700 feet per second, then you divide by cm a
feeder in a mile. I don't know. Maybe this correct?
Yeah, that's beside the point. This is like ridiculous. Who
cares? I think it's a bullet you can hit with old blunderbuss you
get hit in the head. You're dead stop
by hammering ar 15 and Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School
last week. 2182 miles per hour. 3200 feet per second. That's
what those kids were trying to outrun.
This is now this is getting faster, Out Run
Out Run a nine millimeter but you can't outrun a that's right
stops when
you run out, you can out run the gun, you can't outrun the bullet
from the assault rifle
3200 feet per second. That's three times faster than the
speed of a bullet leaving the barrel of a nine millimeter
handgun. With a high capacity magazine, the AR 15 can fire
maybe 90 or 100 bullets in a minute
100 in a minute. And you pull them pretty fast
a concealable handgun can fire maybe 15 bullets
so they're really on this faster faster bullet theory as the
reasons pointed
to this is that I think it has to do with what you we know one
thing for sure they did the modern weaponry called the AR 15
which is so modern it was actually introduced in 1956 is
got to go
according to
who according to the Democrats they're all that you can tell
this is this no
aren't you know they don't care. They don't care. You actually
don't want to leave any don't care at all. They just want to
win the elections. They don't care.
You're not getting back on my ask my own thesis. Yes,
I'm gonna wrap this up.
But you can't wrap it up because I have a couple of clips left.
Okay,
well, yes. All right. Well, I have some stuff that folds into
all of this so I'll listen to your clips go.
Okay, so I have this is a again Muir This is they're talking to
the kids after went back to finally going back to school and
I want you to I got two clips. This is mirrored the first a
tease the ammo, some ammo information and then they paid
do the pay off and clip two but you haven't played clip one and
we'll go from there
when it all happened. Meantime, we're also learning about the
stunning amount of ammunition that gunman left behind at the
school to rekindle at the scene tonight.
The Walk to School unlike any other before it students
returning carrying flowers, greeting officers, some with
signs of encouragement in high school would never be the same.
That's changed forever. Yeah, definitely. The students first
stop their fourth period class the same period they were in
when the shooting began the idea to allow them to spend time with
those students they were with when the shots broke out.
When I got into the classroom, it was kind of like everyone
stared at each other and got a little silent. And then we all
kind of like reunited,
the freshman building where the attack occurred closed, it will
never be used again, a reminder that the school is far from
home. It was a
weird, strange, emotional day in my Spanish class, especially
because one of our students didn't show up today, because he
was one of the 17. So that was
very upsetting. I listen to that clip, again, through the
speakers. Now I realized what she said, because when I first
heard it, I had deconstructed to say, that's very exciting. But
she said that, no, she said, upsetting.
Okay. Does that ruin your or does it ruin your Gambit?
No, it just that was just the commentary because the gambit is
still the tremendous amount of ammunition that was left behind
that debt. Muir teased at the beginning of this clip, but he
also teased it in a in one of those two.
Commercial interstitial interstitial. Yeah.
So he's teasing that but meanwhile that you heard all
this blather you didn't hear what's the number? What did I
miss? How much tremendous amount? What kind of a cache of
ammunition you leave behind? Go to part two.
Tonight, a law enforcement source tells ABC News Nicholas
Cruz left behind nearly 180 unused rounds and one of the
magazines were covered how to swastika on it.
Was what? Okay, 180 rounds which is okay big deal. Which I guess
if you don't know what and make five I guess there's too many
bullets. For most of you. So he had five or six. swastika got to
do with the story. White national
Nazis. Not No, of course not. I haven't seen pictures of
anything. Because white separatist Yes. White mass white
nationalist, white nationalist, white nationalist.
Obviously, a Trump supporter, supposedly
he had Kevlar vest on and all kinds of stuff. I don't know
that we don't know. We're not going to know no one cares.
defund the NRA go dems. That's what this is about isn't screw
the children. By the way, the hog kid. The one who's making
the rounds, the so called guy, he's he's you watch him? He's
gonna be a media personality. He's got a he. He's got to
learn, but he's got a good voice. Yeah, smooth skin. Yeah,
no, I'm telling you watch this guy. A couple years. Watch this
guy. Watch this guy. I have my own clip about classes resuming
at the high school, today's
students began the day by returning to their fourth period
class. That's the class they were in and the students they
were with during the shooting. Someone said one of the worst
things about going back to school is the people you'll no
longer see in classrooms and the hallways, any friends.
We lost in the classes, I have like, two of them in my classes,
and it's gonna be very off, seen the teachers in there and the
students sitting in there, not them. So it's gonna be very
difficult for the
building where 17 people were shot and killed two weeks ago
will no longer be used. It's going to be demolished and
replaced. With less space available. School administrators
had to drop a new master schedule to find rooms for all
the classes and students. There were some 150 Grief counselors
on hand today to help students plus lots of therapy dogs, also
ponies and a goat.
What is it with goats?
No idea why our
goats so therapeutic? Aren't they like a symbol of Satan or
the Devil? Why? What is up with the therapeutic nature of goats?
I've owned goats. Not a fan of the goat.
You gotta get butted Yes, you
feed them you turn around those little crackers. They'll just
run up and then but you're right in the back of the knees and you
buckle over. And they jump around for you that's funny to
them because you fall over bad. MSSC heel plus, yeah, but don't
bite the hand that feeds you. Anyway, the pediatricians of
America have a solution for all of this. We know what to do.
It's very simple. I think we've been talking about the war on
crazy since well, Sandy Hook for sure. But before that, we've
been talking about the idea. Well, first of all,
we know Columbine has to be one of the early
you know, we weren't doing the show we weren't doing the show
No we weren't we were doing a show in that thing in Colorado
Aurora
ah that's where it comes from. Yes, the war on crazy was the
weirdo blue
with the red hair and a bug eyes
so if you saw the little show the President put on with the
his lawmakers you know there was conversation of well you know we
got a you're crazy you got mental health no gun for you on
the list on the list you and whatever this list will be if
it'll be the Nexus the firearms database or whatever list there
will be. That's the beginning of The end of the Republic, because
the next step is, ah, you know, I see you're on the list, maybe
you shouldn't live with near the school. Maybe you should
actually just now not even be in 200 yards of any children. And
before you know it, you got a big problem on your hands and
the pediatricians of America are helping this mission come to
fruition,
it's not uncommon for teenagers to withdraw from their parents
to cut them out of communication. And sometimes
parents don't want to pry. adolescent psychiatrist Rachel
Zuckerberg says this dynamic is one reason teen depression can
go undetected. So
often people are suffering on the inside, but it might not be
obvious on the outside. And sometimes it gets misdiagnosed
because sometimes teenagers who are depressed are actually
acting out and misbehaving. And instead they are looked at as
being hostile or bad when in fact, they're really suffering
from depression.
Zakhar bright says this is a problem. She's an associate
professor of clinical psychiatry at Columbia,
most teenagers with depression don't get access to mental
health care. In fact, about 50% of teenagers don't even get
diagnosed
to address. The American Academy of Pediatrics sounds
like fresh, fresh market meet.
new guidelines call for universal screening.
Well, let me just the calling of didn't roll that back. Because
this is important. They're calling for new guidelines
address this,
the American Academy of Pediatrics new guidelines call
for universal screening for teen depression,
what we're endorsing is that everyone who's 12 and up be
given at least once a year for their school physicals or their
sports physicals. depression screen that is a self report
questionnaire. These questionnaires ask about whether
they've been sad and irritable. They asked that whether things
that used to be interesting to them are now boring. They ask if
they're having difficulty with sleep either too much sleep or
too little sleep.
Zucker abroad says families also need to know where to go
parents go to their pediatrician for vaccinations for a high
fever but don't realize that when there are emotional
problems or behavioral problems that their pediatrician is going
to be an excellent resource is often
the best place to start.
That's right get them on them drugs people you know
some drugs come on let's do it. But this the fact that the
school is doing this this is this is why this is the whole
thing that everything's are is just a conspiracy against the
country. I have one last clip because this is a clip I'm just
at this a local clip that just didn't get any any attention
anyplace else. But I'm wondering because we see this kind of
concerted effort especially with this teacher with a gun. I'm
wondering if other local areas this is in the Salinas Valley
this case PW channel eight. I'm wondering if this is happening
just randomly around the country, but it's not getting
national news just to excite the locals because it's Florida
story. Let's face it, it's in Florida. Let's face it, there's
33,000 schools the likelihood of you know it'd be in your school
is nil, but we will get excitable. Last Florida Florida
is kind of nuts anyway. So this is a local story. This is the
Tulare County Middle schoolers.
Good stuff. Thank you Gina. And this is new tonight. Tulare
County deputies say they have arrested two girls who they say
We're planning an attack on their middle school. Deputies
say a tip led them to investigate the 213 year old
girls in the city of Pixley. Investigators say they had been
to had been making threats against their school. They found
a gun and ammunition in their home. Deputy say the girl's
parents are assisting in their investigation.
Simple story Yeah. you want you could pop this baby anywhere in
the country.
Do it whenever you want. You can pop it in Canada, anywhere.
Yeah. I think you were incorrect about the Canadians not being
allowed to report on the shootings. I got I got I got a
lot of feedback on that.
Well, I got a lot of feedback. There is a there's just some
they have a limitation on what they can report there's a
you can minor you can't you definitely can mention their
name,
but you can't do that here either. Really? So either here
that's at Michigan names of these girls that 13 year olds
well how
about this? Okay, I don't think we play by those rules in our US
media at all. If there's a chance to abuse a child for
ratings, we're all over it. Hey, give him some credit. Name him.
Well, if the kid is about your pee, I can away they can name
them because it becomes a different situation but they
can't name rape victims. There's a bunch of
it's okay. But people are candidates.
In my mind is Is anyone else hearing these little anecdotes
about? Oh, here are two T 213 year olds. Yeah, they're
plotting against the school. They found a gun Whose gun was
at the parents gun it could have been anybody's gun. Dude, one of
the girls have a gun now this
has got to me to story not hashtag just Oh yeah. He got us
we got a gun store, everybody. Hey, all right, here's time for
the meeting.
You need a gun story. Exactly, you know how it works. I do want
to
point something very troubling out amidst this conversation
combo amidst this combo of SSRIs income in combo, a combo of
SSRIs and combo with all kinds of access to weapons with video
games, social media violence in general, there's a whole bunch
of things going on. But your kid may not necessarily have to be
depressed to be drugged up the way they want them to be. And
this was interestingly enough this played on Fox on Tucker
show I never expected him to give another farm ad in his
life. So that's kind of interesting. But listen to this
great macro, you know, it might be like your thesis. You have a
you have a base thesis, which is that the rate you want to scare
people away from so they actually did gravitate toward
it. Cigarettes will kill you. Oh, I'm gonna buy some
this could be a good one. But this drug we have an obesity
issue in the United States. Certainly young people and
children has a lot of obesity problems because we're not
actually eating food. We're eating plastic mac and cheese.
And we have Licious
wood and
delicious wood fiber chips. And here's a drug that we'll fix it
and listen to how it does it and what the side effects might be
kids
help control cravings and lose weight with Contrave is FDA
approved to help adults who are overweight or struggle with
obesity lose weight and keep it off. Contrave is believed to
work on two areas of the brain
your is believed by the way is love that is always is believe
contrary this belief to work on two areas of the brain, your
hunger center I'm so hungry and your reward system ice cream,
french fries to help
control cravings one ingredient in Contrave may increase
suicidal thoughts or actions in some children teens and young
adults in the first few months don't
really need to play it beyond that.
Why? Because it's sad things doing why
SSRI is it is? Of course it is it appears or is believed to
talk to your pleasure center and your craving center in your
brain. Yes, that's an inhibitor. Yes, sir. And now they're
selling is Edison diet, diet medication. Stop with that joke.
Call me sir.
What do why does it bother you so much? No, just because you
actually didn't serve in the military and you're embarrassed?
That's no
that's not in in the least it's the I think it's disingenuous
stop.
The hammering in contact me increased suicidal thoughts or
actions in some children, teens and young adults in the first
few months. Serious side effects are mood changes like depression
and mania, seizures, increased blood pressure or heart rate,
liver damage, glaucoma, allergic reactions, and hyperglycemia.
You don't have to go into all the other side effects. But I
really liked the first few months. The first says it's for
adults, but then it to be careful because it might cause
suicidal thoughts or other aggressive behavior in children
in the first few months. So they're gonna they're going to
recognize that for adults or is not then why
would you say the first few months with kids because
that's in the commercial? The target audience? Yes. Get them
on this on this
on the drug.
A fact so take this drug.
And with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in
the morning to you John C. D stands for chuckling DeVore AK.
In the morning, Neo Mr. Adam curry in the morning all ships
at sea boots on the ground feed in the subs in the water and all
the days and nights out there.
And in the morning to everybody in the troll room handing me one
liners and other fun things, man in the morning to Darren
O'Neill. We used Aaron's artwork for episode 1011. The title of
that was vasectomies and dogs. Not cryptic at all. And this was
the image of the FBI empty tip jar. And I'm not sure what it
was, but we liked it.
Yeah. But it actually got some compliments on
the tweeters. Yeah, I saw that too. It did. It did.
So it was just we thought it did have two dimensions of humor.
The tip jar being empty. So that was two messages there and the
fact there's a tip jar at all. Yeah. It was just a nice piece.
We looked at the other stuff. We do is are we getting we're
having we're doing more longer debating about these, these
artworks unless somebody comes up with something that's just
unbelievable.
Well, that's also sometimes the quality is a lot quality. And
it's harder to choose from St. John's go like Yeah, not really.
Whatever you want curry. Sometimes Sometimes Sometimes we
have a lot of high quality art, and sometimes a lot of really
low quality low fidelity. Yeah. And sometimes it's like, Ah,
just missed the mark. But regardless, we are
exploding. We need some reminders. Let's put some
reminders out there. Do not use our pictures. Yeah, do not use
episode numbers. Do not use episode numbers unless you
unless it's a one shot. But I would rather eat sometimes if
it's a good piece, maybe submit two pieces one with an episode
number one without you can do that.
And it is a great contribution to the show. It really does help
it just magical. We are one of the only shows that does
that. And make sure that the lettering on some of the details
is a little bigger than you normally like because we want to
make sure it's readable in the shrunken form.
Yes. Yeah, in the 254.
Isn't me Adam more nice. Can't read it. That's what he says.
Your impression of me is uncanny. And truly
unbelievable. I know people have I've done it on the phone with
people and they're like, Oh, you sound
just like curry and Adam.
And that to the bank. So that does a couple
tips. Yes, no agenda, our generator.com Thank you, Darren
O'Neill. And thank you to all the artists who are always
contributing It is highly appreciated. Although in waves
things go off. And now I haven't really received any new end of
show mixes for a couple of shows. Except for Chris Wilson,
who seems to have nothing else to do in life but create early
clarity songs.
This Honey What are you doing? I'm doing another mix for the
boys.
He actually gave us one. This is a it's kind of a a throwback to
when we when we all had answering machines now of course
we have voicemail. But I think if you use this as your
voicemail, your your answering machine member those who had
celebrity
make up the dude the whole tape mixes? Yes.
So pretend we're still in 1982. And we have answering machines,
this might be a good one

curious.
That message and I looked and looked and looked at cannot find
her listed in emails of any short using different versions
of the name shorts with a T without a T. And she says aptly.
John, you are an angel from Dave Schwartz.
Wow. Okay. I wonder what spurred that compliment on?
I probably said something.
I I will say in the newsletter, you did mention that 1012 was an
interesting angel number. But that has nothing to do with the
103333.
Well, it's interesting that you would be the angel that is the
angel connection and thinks, Well, no, maybe she's a psychic.
Well, David Schwartz. Thank you very much. I don't know what
your standing is in the peerage ladder. But
where she's at? Well, obviously at least a dame. So we know

No, no, as as the comic book podcast. It was part of a longer
story. And this story is so stupid and boring. And then I
heard this guy. And I said, Well, it's the cat shows a big
cat show somewhere. And so I took I said, You know what I'm
and maybe start thinking about instead of even talking about
the story, just talking. Just do the ISOs.
Yeah, that's all you need. is the best part. Yeah, it's the
best part. I agree. I agree.
It's like vasectomies and dogs. That knows what that means.
I don't even remember why we came up with it. Doesn't matter.
I do.
Oh, yeah. So great. You
know, I have to I have to stop you. You have been saying So
while a lot.
Thank you. Okay. I actually caught myself when I said it.
But I didn't say anything. Thinking that he wasn't doing it
that much. But but the fact that you said that indicates
otherwise. Let's just Oh,
there he goes. Yep.
Let's play this clip. This is just a little California
politics thing. Wrapping things up. I thought this is kind of
interesting. There's the Cal dam we just had that convention to
Democratic Convention. The statewide
Oh, so what do they do with this convention? What does it mean?
They
say here's what we're gonna run and who's who's good and who's
bad. And then they they Guess promote and that's for the for
the local state, like Feinstein for example. Okay.
Are you ready for the clicker?
Now it's a commitment 2018 Some big headlines from the
California Democratic Convention in San Diego today and upset for
the state's longest serving US Senator Dianne Feinstein. She
failed to win the official endorsement of the state party,
Challenger Kevin de Leon secured 54% of the votes. That also was
not enough to win an endorsement. The party also did
not endorse Tony Mendoza. He just resigned from the Senate
amid a sexual harassment investigation to other embattled
lawmakers were endorsed during votes in January. The party
supported Christina Garcia before several people came
forward this month with claims of a hostile work environment
harassment. The party also endorsed Senator Bob Hertzberg
before the results of an investigation into inappropriate
hugging.
Oh my goodness.
Oh, that place is falling apart gotta
get out of that place man.
Inappropriate hugging is scares me.
Oh, wait, do you think that's scary? Listen to this
and Inland Empire City is banning distracted walking
in Montclair pedestrian cannot be on their cell phones or wear
headphones or earbuds while crossing an intersection.
The city officials say there's been a big increase there in
pedestrians dying in crashes. The penalty if you get caught a
$100 fine the first time up to 200 bucks the second time, if
it's within a year of the first offense and up to 500 bucks. If
you're busted again.
saps slay. No distracted walking for you.
I would like to see him get one ticket out, let alone three or
four. Well, it just seems like a big game with some of these
bullcrap losses, put them on the books or they can just harass
individuals.
Yeah, it's also it's also virtue signaling in a way. What's that
black guy doing in the town here? What's that black guy
doing in town? It's no wonder I've never seen him before. Are
you channeling? Are you channeling a Democrat now?
I'm channeling a cop a Democrat cop in California. In
California. Yeah, this is Democrat cop guy. Yeah, what are
you gonna do? What are we gonna do about him? He's in town here
walking around. I don't know. Is you homeless? You think? No, I
don't think so. He's not carrying a bag or anything. But
let's see we can get him roused him. She's wearing hat. Is he
wearing those buds? I think so. Much. Let's go get Stop, stop.
Pull over.
You are walking well distracted.
Yeah, yeah. That is what that laws for.
I love it. Now, we had to have pedestrian desks on the east
coast. But the New York Times writes about this. And they are
pretty convinced that marijuana is to blame that people people
are getting stoned and walking into traffic according to The
New York Times. No, I don't I'd somehow I don't think so. I have
some standing in the area. I don't think so. Hey, man. So
big. We got to talk about the social nets. Oh, right.
You talk about social, the
social baby the social nets. Yeah, I'm just gonna do this
too, until you just get so mad at me. No, till you get x Agros.
To get egged? Well, there's
a lot going on with associates. We have Well, first we have the
the the algo. The face bag algo has changed a lot of complaints.
But what do we find out today that Donald Trump the
President's face bag page engagement has declined by 45%
Following the algo change.
Assume that you're out to get Trump. Well,
you know, the, the accusation is they're out to get conservatives
of any kind, or anything that just doesn't jive. That's
probably true. Yeah, and I think it's true for all of the social
nets.
Yeah, a bunch of San Francisco liberals. But the
most egregious is what YouTube is doing. And this kind of
happened over the past day or two.
The Southern Poverty Law Center is assisting YouTube and
policing content on their platform. The left wing
nonprofit has recently come under fire for labeling
legitimate conservative organizations as hate groups. It
is currently one of more than 100 non government organizations
and government agencies and you did flaggers program that helped
police YouTube for extremist content ranging from so called
hate speech to terrorist recruiting videos.
I think, where's the Who is this? Was that Liz?
No, that's a crappy ass thing. I just wanted to clip I didn't
want to read it. Just to break it up to someone else reading
the story.
You got it? Yeah.
I think the social nets are in big trouble. They really do see
evidence of this no I think they're going to be in some in
dire straits is wishful thinking now there's legislation coming
this legislation coming already there I think they have egg on
their face as they have to have 10 Just for YouTube alone 10,000
people to monitor the content what happened to their their AI
and machine learning and all that they got none of that
you're making me laugh? They have none of it. Just none of
it. And I I'm telling you they're gonna come out with some
kind of social net ledge. God I can do this forever. I think
social networks right, baby? Maybe that's a show title social
net ledge you get
about it. The problem with that beat Miss show titles. ledge.
Yeah. Is impossible to spell it anyway. That would make sense.
Let's just go led GE and it would be it
would be good. But I mean, so you don't think so? I think that
this is going I don't think so. Yeah,
yeah, we already is wishful thinking. I think this has been
going on
wishful thinking without face bag, we lose half of the cool
stuff to talk about. I don't want it to go away I think is
going to go away or not. People will stop using it. This
happens. We've seen this think that any big head geo cities
MySpace, AOL, I can go on forever.
I can go on forever and gents, say the following. Nothing has
gone away without being replaced by something slightly better or
different enough.
I agree with that.
So something would have to replace face but we've never but
we've there's nothing on the on the horizon. And nobody like
Google or all these other experts. They can't seem to put
anything together that is even among not even a minor threat.
Well, I'm just looking at the overall media landscape, how the
social nets are being discussed. What the Convo is about the
social nets. And you know, we've never had a big community before
a big website that was making people sick like this is
seriously well there's that identifies that that's the show
well, but
people are starting to catch on we're noticing more and more
things how you know, Professor Ted would be very proud when you
hear this report. A group
of doctors say kids you so much tech that they cannot hold a pen
or pencil because they lacked the hand strength and dexterity.
Pediatricians are blaming the erosion of basic motor skills on
the change in culture among parents, who rely heavily on
technology. Pediatric occupational therapist, Sally
Payne told The Guardian quote, it's easier to give a child an
iPad that encouraging them to do muscle building plays, such as
building blocks. One mother admitted to reporters that she
had only given her some high tech gadgets to play with
leaving him unprepared for grade school. The mother also telling
the Guardian said quote, When he got to school, they contacted me
with their concerns. He was gripping his pencil like cavemen
sticks. The 2017 study found that the screentime of children
under two years old was linked to delays in them learning basic
expressive speech
as a toddler. No muscles to hold a pencil. Yeah, what
are you doing? Wait, what is this rubbery kid doing here?
He's got no muscles. His bones are gone. By the way the Zephyr
just went by and it's 11 o'clock.
Oh, they're late. They're very late. What was I gonna say about
this? Oh, yeah. So there's all kinds of studies coming out now.
Do you know how much to swing? What
kind of a mom is giving the kid that's
every mom. Do you? Are you around kids even How about
Theodore? I have
I have Theodore. Twice a week. Right? And I don't see him with
a iPad with an iPad only and Jesse is such a nutcase. She's
gonna definitely be you know, not gonna let this happen. She's
gonna make the kid give him a piano or something. Look
at who we're talking about. You're talking about the Devorah
clan. That's very different from you know, the most most people
in the Indian in the you in the Milky Way.
Well, that's probably true.
But parents can and I've had two children in the stroller. I see
it all the time.
Yeah. What is actually a stroller that has an eye
holder holder. No, it doesn't surprise you know,
it's the Japanese strollers got the iPad.
They'll surprise me. Doesn't surprise. Do you know how many
hours a day kids have so called screen time.
Well, what do you mean by kids?
Not black because there's a second statistic for black kids.
A little black kids are luckier if it's lower.
So the typical The screen time is eight hours.
For a kid. What do you mean by a kid? Like two weeks old?
No, no, just a teenager? Oh, a teenager, a teenager? Eight
hours a day if
she's too much, but too much time, believe me.
Black kids in America, this was a study was done 10 hours? Oh,
that's not good. And the correlation is that more
screentime equals poor performance, poor health, poor
everything.
Yeah, well, that's why the black kids would have more screen
time. We're trying to do everything we can to prevent
them from getting normally into this into the whatever
mainstream.
Well, I do believe I believe you believe I do believe I believe
you. I believe on each other's case. That's a good choice. If
the banter
but you're in a good mood. You didn't have exceptionally good
mood today. I'm not sure. Why did you get lucky last night?
It's Mimi around. Now. She can't see I spoke to her yesterday.
She's not with you.
He's trying to help you out.
Because he's trying to help me. Now she's now I forgot what I
was saying.
You're talking about screen time. I was talking about, you
know, trying to get the kids in the mainstream and they're all
getting sick. Yeah.
Well, they're getting sick. I think that the human body is is
self healing, and it will eventually start to reject
things that are bad for it. I just don't see.
Back Your thesis. Yeah.
I think the the acceptance is waning people. I see kids. Well,
they certainly are no longer on the face bag. They've been
dumbed down to Instagram. So you're
seeing the body's self healing. And that's why people get
addicted to opioids or die, because that's their methodology
for No,
no, that's correct. I, I yeah, I think that's that happens all I
know, that people are starting to reject it. And it is
possible. I think they're starting kids. I see more and
more kids and parents getting wise to the health issues
surrounding this. And stories like this. I'm just looking at
the media landscape. I think that they're that we're going to
see some some real blowback. But you're right, nothing will
change until there's some kind of alternative.
People love the social media. It's adorbs doesn't sound as
good when I said,
if we can get you to do it, right. It will. It'll be the
best thing ever.
Yeah, I don't know if I can manage it. But people love
everyone. I know. I said what gets you back off list. This
thing is unhealthy. I'm not a member. I don't use it. I don't
even get you know, I got nothing to do it. I don't have a fake
membership in the background or anything like that. How do you
do it? How do you get by your How do you keep up with your old
friends from high school? Well look like I'm sure you have been
who asked who asked friends in high school? A lot of people do
that. To you. Oh, yeah. You remember fat Betty is really a
doll. Now she's got a lot of weight
that I have to say. I hear a lot of I still hear this. Oh, this
girl who I grew up with bra as she was hot back in the day. I
hear that a lot. I actually think I hear women do that more
often. I think I don't know what men do. I don't stalk anybody. I
mean, erase bag.
Have a funny cattiness. So I'm listening to different podcasts.
Yes. It's and there's a new one that came out from from what's
the name of that DISA? The beacon? Or what's it called the
Free Beacon, which is a new source that we use? Yeah, sure.
Yeah, very good reporters there. They seem to know what they're
doing. And they have good, good perspective on things. So the
couple of them, two of the women who I'll leave their names out
of this, and a couple of the guys they hit, they decided to
do a podcast or on number three, and they're saying this is the
best podcast so far on anything. And what they tend to do is they
drift off into pop culture and do exactly what you're like
talking about. And here's just a segment of their analysis of The
Bachelor TV show.
Chris Harrison says it all the time. But I think this one was
was true. It was real. We had Becca Kay's ex boyfriend of
seven years of return, fly out to Peru and randomly show up and
talk to Ari and I have to say I would have walked away with
Becca Kay's ex boyfriend in a heartbeat in a heartbeat he was
such an
outrageous comment.
No no no he was He's way better than Are you kidding he is it's
incomparable. How much better he is then flowers brought her
flowers he walked extra drippy Yeah, you're gonna wash out here
all these trips either. Like Roth actually, you know he rots
pay for? He bought her flowers. Give me a break.
What a bunch of like sloppy what you guys are spewing right now.
Oh man, that's 49 seconds of my life. I
will never get longer. Ah, but, and by the way, I had to run
that, dare I hit, I don't want to tell any podcasters how to do
their job, we'll do a seminar someday. But I had to run that
thing through a compressor and to make it have the levels even
some guys down here they are up there. There's all over the map.
And I mean, you could the wave form was, like, frightening to
look at. But they, they had the it's just they started going
into this gossipy discussion of of TV shows they actually
believe that reality TV is real back. Yeah, they believe it's
real. And it's not being directed. And I told him to
watch my favorite show on in this regard if people don't have
a clue, which is unreal, which is unlikely lifetime networks.
And unreal is a drama, but it's about the behind the scenes.
I've heard of this, of a reality show, starring Constance Zimmer,
who plays the most evil person, director, producer. imaginable.
She's great. And this thing you watch this and you and you know
what they're doing is probably pretty close to what goes on.
It's just nasty. Well,
you know, because you kind of mentioned to women.
The two women that were bickering, yeah, they're the
ones they're going, Oh, how handsome the guy was
right, and that they would steal from the other girl that they
would do that in a heartbeat. There's a there was an article
from the University of Arizona, about a hostility in the
workplace discrimination, hostility. What are the other
words here? Well, across three studies, they found consistent
evidence that women reported higher levels of incivility from
other women than about their male counterparts. And they call
this the queen bee syndrome.
Oh, yeah. In fact, that's exactly yeah, I know this
syndrome. And that's the phrase I've, I've heard before,
I had not heard this or what do you know about the queen bee
syndrome?
This women it's like alpha versus beta males. You know,
when they get you know, they try one of them tries the boss, the
other the queen bee tries to take over the place. She's like
an alpha male type. You know, he causes all kinds of problems and
riffs. The women have a lot of They bicker a lot. I was what
you're talking about that sort of thing. I was looking at
Camille Paglia. I had
like her. I think I read this essay was an unpopular one for
her base.
So they're always unpopular. But she's such a great writer. And
she is going on about I guess, I've tried to figure it out. For
next show, we'll have the link and put in the show notes. But
in there, it was a new I think it ran in USA Today or this
graph ran in USA Today it was Camille doing her normal anti
feminist feminist rants. And in there, they had this chart. And
one of our producers sent this article to me. And they had this
chart and I actually went back at her with some, but this chart
being added by an editor, because it obviously had nothing
to Camille wouldn't put it in there. And in the chart, they
make the claim. They make this claim 21% of all women have been
forced to have sex in the workplace.
Really?
That's bull crap. I doubt if 21% of all women have ever had sex
in the workplace ever, let alone be forced. That's an
outrageously high number. That's that's the saying that 21% of
all women have been forced to have sex. I don't believe that
number either.
And where's this office? What college? Were some? What office
is this? Where can we? Where can we visit?
I don't know any guys, of all the guys I've ever worked with.
And I've worked in and out of offices. I don't know anybody
who's had workplace sex.
I do know that in my my, my first big company think new
ideas. Yeah, that's some of the dudes named Ben and I was
friendly with them. Then of course, the day there was one
who had had sex with someone else from the office on my desk.
Ha ha ha ha ha one of those one of those
George's Seinfeld episode where George Costanza has workplace
sex not forced but workplace sex with the cleaning lady in the
office. I
mean, I think certainly around the media companies. There was a
lot of sex going on. Shoot man, you go to the White House, Hope
Hicks. But
Oh, that'd be one person. Right? It's not 21% this down. Okay,
I'm forced to have said let me give you a look. As bullcrapping
this stuff gets propagated.
Allow me to give you another stat. And this may be true. I
don't know. This is from Marie Claire, who used to go on a
client so I still read their newsletters and see what's going
on. Doctors have finally ruled menstrual cramps are as painful
as heart attacks.
Wow. Yes, I've heard this was all over the tweets, huh? Okay,
everybody's retweeting. All the women are retweeting. Oh, look,
look look told you so? Yeah, by the way, I should mention your
different. Apparently, CBD is quite a very,
very good for menstrual cramps.
Yes. Number one,
namely helpful drinking his tea? Oh, yeah, definitely. Yeah. But
I'd love to, I'd love to hear from our female producers.
Yeah, how many of you how many people who I will read the mail?
And how bad was a heart attack hurt? I don't know, I haven't
had one of those either.
Well, if some woman has had both a heart attack, and menstrual
cramps, which would be if he had a heart attack, I'm sure he had
both. I'd like to hear that. And I'd like to hear how many I
don't want to hear from everyone saying I've never had sex in the
office. I'm assuming that I want to know how many people have had
sex in the office or know somebody who's had sex in the
office. And how many people would know if somebody was
forced sex in the office? Because there shouldn't be 1000s
of you, according to this, because if you go to 21%
Well recall the incredible statistic of people with
obesity, that 40% in the studies, said, You know, they
want it to be invisible because of some kind of abuse. So
there's definitely abuse in the world and a lot of it and maybe
John, you and I were just dudes. And what do we know? We're not
we know we know enough that that common sense? It kind of takes
precedent over crazy statistics that are bullcrap. This is the
same thing where they're claiming all these we did a
bunch of clips on this. With all these so posted college sexual
assaults many times amounted to nothing. There was no sexual
assault.
Well, I guess the definition is what is forced sex?
I don't think it's hard to figure out what forced means.
Now force is easy. You're right. I don't know. Well, we'd like to
know about that. We'd like to know about fine. None zero. I'd
like to know about the severity of the menstrual cramps and I've
been advised that if I just keep talking to you eventually find
out how bad a heart attack is. I thought it was a mean joke
honestly. But that's the that's the troll room for you. They
just mean is
yeah using the EEG I don't know why you're relying on that
material so much because it's nice lap and stuff. No.
New Zealand another local boots on the ground report we need has
a rabbit problem. And they're going to deal with it by
releasing the rabbits Yes. With Hemorrhagic Disease. Isn't that
where you just fizzle and bleed on the inside you just bleed?
Like Ebola?
Your eyes out your ears out your fingernails?
And is that the same with rabbits?
Yeah, when they get big ears
I'm reading this BBC article. And you know the question of
course is you know how will they die? And they say well you know
a miserable death no they don't say that they said no you know
some did some just die quickly. I don't think it's true. So
these are well there's this virus it's a it's a Korean
strain of hemorrhagic rapid fee rabbit for Rh d V one dash k
five thanks the animals internal organs
never works out by the way but the rabbits are I guess ruinous
in New Zealand.
This is a huge problem with the rabbits you know in Australia In
Australia, the kangaroos and that's they're not liked.
Given I'm not going to kill kangaroos, their indigenous
routes excuse me,
they have entire programs to kill.
But not eradicate them do you mean eradicate that eradicate
the rabbits are not going to eradicate can
you remember I went out with a roof shooter and he had you know
40 tickets that means he could shoot 40 Kangaroos that night.
They kangaroos are in that country.
Yeah. What do we do? What is the kangaroo
population in Australia? Another
40 million history. 40 million.
Oh 40 says nothing.
How many? How many people 10 million.
How many sheep? Yeah.
And how many of them look really scared. Rather? Yeah, I'm sorry.
You should be. I just thought hemorrhagic fever was was
curious to me.
Yeah, it is very curious. Can we play some clips? Yep. I have a
clip of this is the big scandal Jeff Sessions are trying to get
him to quit too, by making a mountain out of a molehill every
time Trump tweets,
if I can just back you up for a second. Well, you have asserted
previously and I'm kind of on board with it is sessions. He's
got the double pension ready to go. So it'd be double dip and
making all kinds of money. He actually wants to be forced into
retirement. That's kind of I think it's been your your
assertion
that's getting closer. But that doesn't mean that ABC has to
pass to pretty much lie their way through this story. This is
Jeff Sessions versus Trump
president tonight taking aim at his Attorney General Jeff
Sessions. This is not new. But what is new. Agey is now firing
back. Here's ABCs Chief Justice correspondent Pierre Thomas.
The President has made his frustration with his Attorney
General well known for months. I am disappointed.
General. He should not have recused himself.
If he was going to recuse themselves. He should have told
me before he took the job and I wouldn't pick somebody else. A
lot of people are disappointed
in the Justice Department, including me tonight for the
first time. Attorney General Jeff Sessions is firing back. It
comes after this tweet today from the president slamming
sessions. The President believes Sessions has not done enough to
investigate allegations the FBI abused surveillance powers in
the Russia investigation. The President tweeting Why is ag
Jeff Sessions asking the Inspector General to investigate
potentially massive FISA abuse will take forever has no
prosecutorial power. Isn't the IG and Obama guy why not use
Justice Department lawyers disgraceful after months of
responding diplomatically to the President's attacks?
Well, it's kind of hurtful, but the President United States is a
strong leader.
Today. Sessions stood up to the president writing in a statement
quote, we have initiated the appropriate process that will
ensure complaints against this department will be fully and
fairly acted upon if necessary. As long as I am attorney
general. I will continue to discharge my duties with
integrity and honor.
And Pierre Thomas with us tonight live from Washington and
Pierre some critics tonight even some Republicans say the
President's trying to influence or pressure the Justice
Department with his words and tweets like the one today.
That's right,
David, President Trump in that tweet told sessions to US
Justice Department attorneys telling him how to do his job.
But tonight sources say the message from sessions was blunt.
Let me do the job as I see fit. Or fire me.
It never said that. But it was clear fire me the words fire me
were never used. This is bullcrap.
It was so clear. The message was clear. Yeah, lie there. No.
Well, there's a lot of lying going on. Right here. Thomas
is one of the worst at this. You can parry hit me dude do
basically have the same he has the same kind of gig on the show
as Jeff Brigade's does on CBS. I can't even run Jeff brigades
material, because I'm just stealing Jeff bouquets butcher
because he never makes these screws up screw ups. I'm sorry,
Jeff. Per gazes. Great. Yeah, although it sounds a tiny poop
guy. Poop guy.
Yeah, he's much better. I agree. Well, there's a lot of lying
going on surrounding the rather long combo that went on in the
in the house regarding cyber. And we had General Keith. No,
Keith. Keith Rogers, from the NSA.
Oh, no, it's just No, it's the other guy. same name as the
other Rogers.
Yeah. Peter Roger Pang. Oh, it's
not Hey, John, Jeff Dylan, Ron Zhao, my good. Mike. Mike. Mike.
Mike. Watch Mike Rogers got it. So all I heard for the past 24
hour news cycle, which I watched diligently for all of you. It is
our job is Trump won't even let him defend us against the
Russians. In exactly that voice, by the way. So the concept is
that the admiral himself who was running NSA said, Well, you
know, the President won't let me do anything. He hasn't given me
the order and just everyone's outraged because this is an act
of war. It's Pearl Harbor. You know, how can you know the Putin
he loves him? It's worse than Pearl Harbor. Worse than Pearl
Harbor. And yeah, Trump, it was a quid pro quo. It was collusion
of the WikiLeaks emails, whatever. But even in their own
reporting, it's not the truth.
Admiral Rogers tells the Senate Armed Services Committee He's
neither requested nor gotten additional authority.
That's it. I mean, I don't have to I'll play the rest of the
clip, but he hasn't requested it either. He hasn't asked for it.
Yet I'm gonna play this 38 seconds the whole thing but just
it's crazy. Admiral
Rogers tells the Senate Armed Services Committee He's neither
requested nor gotten additional authority to act against Russian
election interference conditioners Connecticut
Democrat Richard Blumenthal pressing him on what that means.
You
mean leading the witness?
Would you agree with me that the Russians have already returned
from the Oh, yes, sir. I think that's true. They're doing it
with impunity. They could care less what we think they're
continuing to attack us. Yes, sir. So thus far, the response
of the United States of America to this ongoing attack has been
completely inadequate. It hasn't changed the calculus is my sense
house, Bill Rogers
says it's not his place to tell President Trump what he should
or should not do about Russia.
And that was from NPR. And they had the facts and the guys I
haven't requested any additional powers. And what does that mean?
Like I can finally do the
deed Dorsey does what additional powers does he need on
none. It's
no Blumenthal's a douchebag. DS. Well, we have a report on the
Russian hacking, they brought two experts into the PBS
NewsHour. And then they just went on forever, by the way. So
this is a very short, short beginning, but it's worth common
Ilan.
Welcome to both of you to the NewsHour, David Becker to you
first, in Psalm What did the Russians do to election systems
in this country in 2016? Nothing.
What we know from testimony from the intelligence community and
elsewhere is that they attempted to probe or scan several state
systems, probably most notably, voter registration, database
systems,
Jesus, a lot of attempted probably probe or scan, or
almost all of those scans and probes were unsuccessful. There
was one instance where they successfully accessed voter data
about 70,000 records or so in June and July of 2016. But no
records were altered or deleted. And I
don't know if it's in this report. But what I hear about
this story is, you know, they were planning to delete people.
I mean, is that really their plan? We're going to delete
people from the database. Yeah, yes. Let away
if you're you one time I went into vote. And my name wasn't
there. For some reason. I just said my name is not here
supposed to be here. And I showed him my driver's license
and gave me a ballot. I voted,
of course, and that works in every in every state that way.
It Yeah. I think maybe there's maybe five or six states where
you have to prove citizenship for the United States. But yeah,
I had a driver's license. It was good doesn't prove citizenship.
But you know, while you're in California, you just need to
have no need to prove it. Just a piece of paper with your name on
it. Just a piece of paper with your name on it.
Yeah, I scribble my own name on there. Yeah. Go good to go. Yes.
We also know from the intelligence community and from
multiple investigations, all the remedies
can go on and clean up the database a little bit while
they're in there. Just fix the records. You know, we got some
duplicates, guys, we could do that.
Like crap, these guys don't have the rows of select
star dem from
fix this for them.
Perfectly. Why is it not playing what happened?
Oh, of 2016. But no records were altered or deleted. We also know
from the intelligence community and from multiple investigations
all around the country, that there were no successful efforts
to
sorry to interrupt again. But I'm surprised they haven't said
they could bleach bit it. I mean, something like that a
little more creativity, people
who to change votes or change vote totals or tallies
throughout the United States.
Denise Merrill, what about what happened in your state of
Connecticut? We know there was an effort made by the Russians
there.
Yes, we were one of 21 states, apparently that were scanned, at
least by Russian IP addresses. Again, our firewalls and our
systems held they were trying to get into our voter registration
database, which I think is similar to what happened in the
other states. I think the good news is they didn't get in. And
I think that's pretty much true in all the other states with
that one exception that David mentioned,
and Denise Merrill staying with you, what evidence or belief do
you have right now that they are continuing to try to do that in
this 2018 midterm election
year? Well, I do think the threat of Russian interference
in our elections is real. I've become convinced of that. Not
only by what has happened, but what could happen. I think we're
all on alert now that there could be other attempts. I
honestly think that the biggest goal that they have at this
point is to sow distrust in the American public in their
elections. That may be the most dangerous thing of all.
Well, you're doing like you're carrying Putin's water than baby
so distrust now I did I thought about this because I've heard
this mean before you have to this is I think this is what the
because they can't really find the Russians actually doing
anything as if it Maybe they can maybe they can and maybe it's
not even the Russians just Russian IPs. I mean I could
spook
Can I Can I just I've told the story before I'll be brief about
it for the newbies here in the best podcast in the universe. If
I go to look at my email server but I run my own if I look at it
right now, I will see 10 scans a second from China from Russia
from all over the place and they just scan and they just scan in
ports to try and passwords your pew pew pew pew pew pew pew This
happens all the time there's nothing special nothing
is this so distrust this is the idea is to so such as love so
who distrust I bet you if I went out to the street even anywhere
California where they'd be more, you know, believing that this
kind of thing might be going on and ask about if people are
starting to distrust the system because the Russians are behind
all these hacks are they trying to hack this bullcrap nobody's
even thinking that but they're keep promoting the idea that
it's the Russians are trying to sow distrust.
Here well the only people doing that are the northern Gamble's
sowing. distrust. That's
them, the ones who are bitching and moaning. I don't think
people care. I don't think people care. That's the point. I
was
trying to. Yeah, I think the NRA thing is better. It's a better
tact.
Oh, they gotta keep a gig. multiple fronts. multiple fronts
of attack.
Yeah, but yeah, nothing's gonna isn't going to be no Mueller
report. By the election. He would be crazy to do that. He
would be insane. Yeah.
We have another story local.
You're just full of locals.
I know today's local day for me. This is a story.
You get this off your your DTV antenna? Yeah.
I get it off. Oh, TR. O TR is what I mean. The OTA OTA, OTA,
TT RS, Old Time Radio OTA over the air. Yes, that one? Yes.
This is a big story around here. And never was oh, in a tizzy
about it. This is the tech buses. Buses are being targeted
by some gunman.
Oh, wow. And these are the tech buses that were first targeted
by feces, and puke and piss bags. Yes. And now let's just
explain the tech just explain the the tech bus.
Okay, well, Google, but these most of these, most of these
tech buses nowadays are Apple buses. Ah, because apparently a
lot of Apple employees live in San Francisco. And they don't
like the idea of commuting to Cupertino every day, because
it's during any kind of reasonable hour of commute,
that's over an hour drive. And it's a pain in the ass. And you
know, they gotta look for parking. So it's a pain in the
ass. And Google's got a lot of people live in San Francisco.
And they're always kids, they will all live in San Francisco
instead of Redwood City. And so they have to take these so they
came up with this idea of these tech buses and those buses have
their like city buses they have stops them and they pick up the
tech workers and the tech workers go down the peninsula to
the offices of Google or Apple, or whoever it is, is holding
them down. Every Google and Apple are the big
one. They all get on the bus wearing their Google Glass we
are going to work we are going to work.
No, because that that's so passe. Now, it's not even funny.
Now so so people have been irked by this because they're things
are clogging up San Francisco streets are so many there's like
I don't know how many is there? 100 I'm not sure it's quite an
unless quite a lot. There's a lot of buses, and they're all
these advances you
see like three or four buses in a row sometimes.
I've never seen that one of these buses is just in the news.
I don't go to San Francisco that often plays out because there's
too much poop over there. Anyway so on the street on the street
when you walk in sidewalk you know you think these people
would curb their poop
I remember the signs curb your dog I don't think that I think
that's a phrase from the chaise now it's so old. I don't think
anyone uses that
because if you if you poop in the car of golf the curb into
the kind of like the street but that curb or if it rains it a
wash the poop into the sewer sewage system. But if you just
pooping in the middle of the sidewalk it's disgusting. Does
if the others not? Anyway, back to the story. Let's just play
clip one
up. The damage the damage windows, they've dented the
exterior of the vehicles over 20 strikes in the last 45 days.
Nice one too many
tech buses targeted by a freeway gunman only on seven now
exclusive new details about the unusual step that police are
taking to try to catch their suspect including even calling
in the FBI. Good afternoon. Thanks
for joining us on my radio
and I'm Kristin Z for ARMA dates, the attacks happened on
shuttle buses along Interstate 280. But the CHP revealed today
that when the bus has moved to highway 101 The gunman follows
him there.
Man, the taking shots
at the bus. These seven guys fired from Apple.
Oh, that could be Yeah, pissed off. If it's just an apple boss.
It would story seems to be centered around Apple buses.
Course reporting on this is pretty lame, because just at the
end of clip one, yes. Yeah. Clip two kind of shows you why Why
think it's lame.
Since mid January. The CHP says at least 20 charter buses had
been hit with bullets from either a BB gun or a rifle. Oh,
wow. Okay,
geez. That was no good.
What kind of BB gun shoots a bullet? Yeah,
that was bad.
This is the like, oh, guns eek.
Well, here's a tip. Don't watch local TV is stupid. It's really
stupid. I'm coming around to it one of our older ideas before
the show, and this came to me, actually, I've been doing a lot
of research about networks and value. You know, one of my main
mantras is you can't monetize the network. And what I mean by
that
not even a mantra is like a pet peeve. Yes. And what I mean by
that is that when you have a network of people doing things,
which is what Twitter is, and I tell them, there's really only
one company that has figured out how to do it really, Google is
the one that does it, right. But even face bag, you know, yeah,
they're the only game in town, and they're trying to keep
people locked in. But the swirling is slowing down slows
down their home, you really can't do it. That's just you
know, the minute you have a network of content that is made
by other people, you can't monetize off of it, it just
doesn't work. I've seen it, we don't see it happening. Facebook
is an extreme outlier for a number of reasons. But if you if
you look at our own network, so we have a network, and it really
got to take your mind out of the idea of Facebook is like some
magical place on the internet. It's just a website. It's no
different. This isn't, you know, they got more servers. But it's
no different from the bits and bytes that we send around the
universe on this show. So these networks are created, they're
not proprietary, they're run over the internet and our
network is, is of all these different skill sets and
interests. And money is all kinds of things that float
around in our network. And I think it's incredibly In fact,
I'm working on this as a as a new phrase that the network is
actually the value. And strangely enough, what you put
in, you get equally out what you need if you really contribute to
it. And the reason I've been looking at this is a buddy of
mine who I've I've worked with him for Chaco, we go back 2829
years. He's starting a music company, Ico and initial coin
offering, which we talked about doing for our show. And the idea
that I had was we figure out how to how to launch our own token,
our own alt coin, if you will. And then everyone participates.
And we all get rich and we all retire the hosts and audience at
the same time. So producers and executive producers, everyone
just retired because we made money. And now that I've really
looked into how this works, and he's he's been bugging me says,
Do you want to help with the marketing? I'm going to do it.
In fact, I'll probably be in Holland next week. We'll still
do the show. But I'm going to learn how this works. And I
think I'm coming up with an idea that will actually work for our
show with our own cryptocurrency that if we it will, that will
actually show the value of our network. And I I know it sounds
a little little than incomplete at this at this time.
There have been sorry Theramin
you caught me off guard in therapy and now we're talking to
everybody. That's right. The no agenda coin I'm working on it.
It's a very, very interesting thing that's happening with
these ICOs very interesting.
Okay, so I will I mean I'm not gonna discourage you, I know you
want this you're gonna go off on your own anyway doing some idea
that you think is valuable because when I say this is a dog
No, no no, no, I mean, there's a bunch of people that have been
telling us to do this and see if we can help you know, the like I
said they can help.
Let me ask you a question, John. Do you buy stocks you buy bonds?
Do you buy stocks and bonds? Do you buy stocks or bonds? Just as
the question you buy stocks and bonds.
Not as much as real estate. Do
you want to get rich? I'm gonna make you leave your boyfriend.
You're gonna be so rich and I leave Give her to bed Mini.
She's got community property, so she's gonna get as rich as I do.
I'm gonna show my school by donating to no agenda. Imagine
all the people who could do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fun
think we should call it Bimini?
I think the before we cash out and end up in SingSing thank a
few people that are helping us on this on this current pursuit.

sincere gratitude for the work you do. The past two months of
shows have been excellent. I'm afraid I've been slacking and
not donating regularly. So if you read this on the air, please
deduce me that
you've been de deuced
a few months back I heard an old friend donate so I tracked his
phone number down and we recommended or we we reconnected
on old friend over over no agenda. Your deconstruction is
bringing people together over many miles. However I've not
heard him donate sense. Oh, so please call Trent out as a
douchebag. Additionally, my father John has been listening

Thank you for the best podcast in universe have been quite some
time and I've donated, I have donated this has nothing to do
with the quality of the shows quite frankly, they are
entertaining, informative, and in all caps outstanding. The
reason I have not donated is that I'm a cheap bastard. Also,
I keep forgetting to send in the money more vitamin B 12. I have
been a longtime listener. remember some of the early shows
when you John said that candidate Obama was unelectable.
Did you really say that? Or am I making this crap up? Question
mark, question mark. Smiley face.
Alright, you might have I don't. You did? Yeah.
I remember saying it because I was looking over the candidates
and I felt that he was unelectable
Gods just before we knew how it all worked.
Well that that and before, right? Yes, yeah. Before we
Yeah, maybe that was it. But I had this. I had a bunch of guys
I listed as on electable and he was one of them. Right. Anyway,
that's rich somewhere in North Carolina. All right. I'm sorry.
Read that note because I don't mind calling myself out for
errors. Yes. And that was an error. And you know, we're not

Right now worked.
Yes, I have. See I got a couple things I want to play here. Yes.
You remember Major Garrett. You know him right there.
Remember me? He says in the CBS.
Yeah, Major Garrett. He also does a podcast.
Oh, terrific. Everybody does a podcast.
Everybody does a podcast these days. And he had what do you
have one who doesn't have a podcast at Jim Lewis on? Well,
they were talking about Trump and Putin and what can we do
about Putin and I learned some interesting news.
I have every expectation that they will continue to try and do
that. But I'm confident that America will be able to have a
free and fair election that will push back in a way that is
sufficiently robust that the impact they have on our election
won't be great.
That is the voice of CIA director Mike Pompeo, January
29 2018. In a BBC interview, Jim Lewis, Vice President, Senior
Vice President at the strategic Center for Strategic
International,
I love how he's trying to do his radio voice. Do you hear that?
He try? Yes. Ah, yeah. He doesn't talk like that on
television. He's really trying to do an announcer guy thing.
This is a problem. A lot of these you a lot of pros that
move from I mean, it's not like he hasn't got a great job but
the network, but they go to podcasting, they don't know what
they think it is.
Well, it's not it's not a great sound for him
feel. January 29 2018 interview ABC interview, Jim Lewis, Vice
President, Senior Vice President at the strategic Center for
Strategic International Studies, our guest here to talk about
they're confident America will have a free and fair election,
then he says, we will push back in a way that is sufficiently
robust. What does that mean?
We don't know. That's been one of the problems and the previous
administration struggled with it as well. My, my favorite is
still mu and discussing with them. What are the things we
could do back to the Russians? One of the ideas they had was,
well, suppose we leaked Vladimir Putin's Botox injection
schedule, myself, is that the best we can do? It and we know
what that is. Yes. But that's why he looks so stern all the
time, and he can't move his face. You know, it's like it
feels sympathy for the guy.
I mean, he's probably I guess, a little maybe.
I think he was being truthful. I think Putin does use Botox. Why?
Oh, lots of men do it these days, John. I get accused of it
all the time. Tina, the keeper still doesn't do it. bees do it.
Even little podcast to do it. But yet I need a song. Let's do
it.
Let's do it. Let's Botox, our face.
You're in quite the mood today. I'm telling you something's
going on. Well, we know that in certainly in California there
where you live, John, the Democrats are very clear. Just
all leaders there are very clear why they want immigrant
workforce. Because it's cheap. Right? Keeks? Exactly. We
need these. These immigrants to fruit pears, tomatoes.
Yeah. In my theory of the cycle of history and history repeating
itself. It just gets better when you think about, you know, all
these combos going on about illegal aliens voting. And we
might get to a place where we'll say, Well, I'll tell you what.
Okay, we had some illegal aliens voting but we'll count those
like 1/3 vote to them will really have subhumans because
they're only worth a third of a vote. Picking stuff in the
fields for the same Democrats who did this with slaves.
Yeah, it's really, it's a cycle. It's a
cycle man is coming around. Anyway, in Canada Navia. They
have their own desire for a cheap labor as witness here to
the premier, Justin, talking us
through and quite frankly, the most common complaint I get from
Canadians, from Canadian businesses from from people in
general is you're not bringing in enough immigrants and that's
that's a rare thing in this world.
They want some of that cheap labor to businesses, but it is a
rare thing. Businesses asking him. Do you wonder why they
wanted Justin?
Yeah, they will see exactly what else what they want, is
he? He can't be sat down this guy. He can't be that dumb. You
just can't be.
I think he's an idiot. I mean, they'd like to point the finger
at Trump as being stupid. But now Now, Trump has actually run
businesses. He's got other things going on. He may be dim
witted about certain things, but this guy is just dumb. Yeah.
Sorry, Canada. Canadians. That's why they're not donating
anymore. There wasn't one donor in that list today. That was
from Canada. What
do they hate us now? Because we're we're why are they
donating?
I don't know. I'd have to go back over this. Oh,
we need more immigrants. From Canada. We need more immigrants
listening to this
one that may have been one from Alberta. More immigrants,
please. Willington New Jersey I'm looking at now there's not a
Canadian in the group.
Okay, was bad. Oh, good news. The German Rail Deutsche Bahn DB
has decided they will not be naming one of their trains after
Anne Frank after all. They do see that is maybe not a good
idea. Remember that I told you the story that
they were thinking about it? Yeah, I remember vaguely
Yeah, well, now that's yeah, you know, we got some feedback. We
understand it's a little controversial to name a German
train after Anne Frank. And please don't email I would
say that just sending mixed messages really
is and you don't have to email me about Anne Frank. I know all
about it. Because you know where you're gonna get.
You're gonna get the whole And Frank's diary was
written by her dad. They didn't have ballpoint pens.
The ballpoint pens before they were ballpoint. I will tell you
there's a lot of fight
over the rights to And Frank's name. There's two groups and
they fight through the courts all the time, who gets to call
themselves the official and Frank this that it's a mess.
Yeah. All right. Well, I've got I got that little clip of wolf.
Oh, the writer who did the Trump book is eaten crap he's gotten
he's decided he's going off the tours over
it. Well, he you know, what happened in Holland? Is he got
excoriated, and then again, I believe in, maybe I don't think
it was there but an Australian morning sharing Australia. Oh,
that's right. Yeah. Well, so this came after what happened in
the Netherlands? Where for some reason the the journalists ever
since they caught the ambassador lying about he had said
somewhere Well, in Holland, they have no go zones. And they like
politicians on fire. Which, of course, as far as I know, never
happened in Holland. And they call them on and he's like, wow,
you know, he looks like a douche. And now the Dutch press
whenever they have someone, an international controversial
figure they ask in that, you know, in their typical rude way,
and it's not that the Dutch are rude. It's just how they sound
as a voter, you they Mr. Ambassador, you said the
politician is on fire where you see the flame man. That's that's
how they're asking questions these days. And so they did this
to Michael wolf about you know, the insinuation that he was
having sex with? Was it supposed to be with Oh, with the Pope
pics? No, no, no. The the woman the senator or the
Feinstein now,
it doesn't matter. I'll come up with it.
Can't hear I can't hear I'm off and then he walks off the set.
You said during a TV interview last month that you are
absolutely sure that Donald Trump is currently having an
affair. While President behind the back of the First Lady. And
I repeat you said you were Yeah, I can't. Last week, however you
bet slipped, and said I quote I do not know if the President is
having an affair. Do you owe the President and the First Lady and
apology Mr. Wolf? I can't hear you. Jello last month you said
you were absolutely sure that the President was having an
affair.
I'm not getting I'm not getting anything.
You're not hearing me Mr. Wolf.
I'm not getting anything.
No, we were hearing each other well, just before
I thought it was a very genius move on his part.
Well, like you were he actually starts to answer the question
United hearing me no. I can't you know, he does this. It
sounds like he was hearing him. Oh, shit. Yeah. And then he
walks Yeah,
I thought it was a good way to do it.
Hey, they should Yeah, well, he canceled his whole tour now
because they're going Oh,
I wonder how sales or is he still top of the list guys
gonna walk away with millions of dollars from this book?
Right. Okay. Yeah, he's done. He's He's, he's
now what is not doing any ad it's it's not adding to the
sales figures. I mean, most of these tours are bogus. Anyway,
once you get your initial publicity in and out of the way,
like, Dick's Sporting Goods. Yeah. Never seen so much. It
looks like native advertising. And it's on every network.
Yeah, it's it's what everyone does you jump on the bandwagon
for commercial reasons. Yeah, they are. They are exploiting
children as well.
Yes, they are. Alright, so I have oh,
I know. You gotta go. I don't
have to go.
am calling time. One way? No, no,
I see. There's going to ya know, and I will get two more clips
then. Okay. Actually, I'm going to do one more clip and then we
can kill it. And I can move these goes forward. But I do
want to play this clip. This is the Santa Cruz homeless
encampment is another local story. And they moved them and
then they gave us some numbers that are interesting.
In Santa Cruz, the San Lorenzo Park Benchlands homeless
encampments shut down next week. The city plans to open another
temporary site on River Street. It's a fenced graveled city Oh
lot or food and other social services will be provided will
cost about $90,000 a month to operate through June. The River
Street location is set to open this coming Wednesday, man.
So $90,000 a month or a million dollars a year, more or less.
Isn't that a lot?
Well, how many people are they going to live? They
don't say but it shows like maybe 4050 People want to just
give them the money?
Yeah. I don't know. I'm torn about that. Hey, you doesn't
matter under a certain amount that you just can't live
anymore? Certainly not in California. You just can't live.
No, this whatever. I don't know what the poverty level is or
what but it's wrong kind of grant. That's poverty in
California. It's pretty
high.
Yeah, I just made that up. It can't be 100, trans
30 or 40 as high it's not 30 as high.
Yeah, you just you just can't you just can't live there
and depends also anywhere in California if you're gonna be up
in Tulare County, if you're going to be up in by Y Rica, if
you're going to be, you know, in the Oregon border, which is why
Rica, you're it's not gonna be the same as if you're in San
Francisco Bay Area, Los Angeles. Well, why
don't they just build a build a library seems to be great. They
like it. The homeless people love their library. I'll have
I'll have another boring library report on Sunday. Yes,
we need another boring library report.
I will do my best.
Yes, sir.
Okay. All right, buddy. That's your show for this moment. We
are back on Sunday. Do it twice a week these days? And please
remember us for that at the vortec.org/na because the
network is the value. I'm working on it.
Yeah. Well. It's better than some of the other things I've
heard like the network is the computer which is Sun
Microsystems. Thank you. Because it's not
coming to you from downtown Austin, Texas, the capital of
the drone star states. We are on FEMA Region six and all the
government maps in the five by nine Claudio and the common law
condo in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry,
and from Northern Silicon Valley, which actually stopped
raining, which I find something of a relief. It was supposed to
be a downpour that's gonna last all day and all night, but it's
sunny. I'm John C. Dvorak.
