Oh man dad, Adam curry John C Devorah November 29 2018 This is
your award winning get my nation media assassination episode 90
This is no agenda. Sitting in driver update hell and
broadcasting live from the capital the drone Star state
here in downtown Austin Tallahassee in the video here in
the morning everybody. I'm Adam curry
from Northern Silicon Valley where it's been raining cats and
dogs and Johnson and buzzkill
Well, it was only one hour delay. Could have been a lot
worse.
Yet for betas of course the Zephyr betas although the
coastal was an hour late
I've been an update hell well actually it was great this week
the updating I did everything I needed to do and then the very
last moment something broke but that that Dr. Cloning You turned
me on to that was a fantastic experience
well it does sound like it if it broke something
now in general I don't think the DR cloning broke anything I
because I upgraded everything. Every update every you know the
drive. I think it's the drivers from the the USB thing Mark of
the Unicorn think they screwed something up?
Well, it could be Yeah, well, I think drive cloning thing work.
Well, if it if it had anything to do with a hardware mismatch?
I because I've done this a couple of times using this a
Chronos. Right, great piece of software. Yeah, what it does is
it clones the disk onto another disk and you've flipped the
disks back and forth is
better than that. You just plug it into a USB, you hit clone,
and then you swap the disk and it actually worked the first
time. That was an amazing experience.
Yeah, boots. As if it was the original disk only now you'd
have more space or you got a faster dry,
I would say from the boot process is 10 times faster.
Everything's fast. It's just I should have I should have
ordered this thing with this solid state drives to beginning
to begin with. And I can see if I run like the the registry
scanner. It used to be the drive would tap out before the CPU.
Now the CPU goes to 100% the disk is still at 80%. So that's
where I see the big difference.
Yeah, it's faster, faster, faster. Yeah, even as fast as
the Superfast ones, which you'd find in these, which are those
little dinky cards that don't run on sat on the non SATA SSDs
are probably twice as fast.
I mean, I did so much this week, I even upgraded the firmware in
my hearing aids. And I heard the difference, which is even
funnier. Anyway, anyway, the Apple guys were in town last
night. The James from the Apple podcast HQ. They always like to
take couple podcasters out to dinner. Okay, and you would have
you might have liked Well, first of all, you would like to be one
of these because it's it's, it's you know, it reminds me of when
I was when when MTV, you know, you'd be in a city and then the
corporate office that MTV would say, Yeah, you got to have
dinner with the local cable affiliate and his wife. You
know, it's feels like one of those deals where they're in
Austin. Oh, I gotta call up some podcasters and all right, well,
let's get a couple of them around the table. And we went to
foreign and domestic, which is a very small can barely be called
a restaurant up north. And I had the braised goat's neck potpie
which was a fun that's about as disgusting a dish can be named
it you know, and because the one they just call it a goat potpies
goats neck it was
no braised goats neck and it sounds completely like you don't
want to order it but the waitress she was going on and on
about as always the bad guy. Yeah, I'll take it. It was an
outstanding product. I wouldn't have known it was goat to start
off with.
Y'all goat is very hard to identify it doesn't taste like
much of anything. Actually. It's very mild version of language is
milder and people don't understand this but go to
actually taste milder than mild lamb if you don't like lamb or
goat or, or sheep, but you don't nobody's in this country. You'd
like goat goat is very mild. Right and just you know, here on
the no agenda show. We love goat. We're very growth
oriented, goal oriented.
So a couple things said no. So what are you guys doing? We
talked about anything and it was a Dan Benjamin was there and new
guy from Apple and I guess they invited Lance Armstrong again,
but Lance Armstrong doesn't come anymore sends his producer like,
Okay, nice guy values. Very nice guy. So what's going on? They
have native podcasts on the Apple Watch. They're very
excited about that. And I had to ask, I said, How do I avoid
getting D platformed? From the iTunes directory, which I will
remind you, I gave you the first version of the directory myself.
That's what you started off with. Yeah, you
keep reminding people of these days because they'll forget.
Yeah,
the answer. No hate speech.
What does that even mean?
That was my question. I said, What does that even mean? Well,
you know, hate speech. It's like, Okey dokey. They have a
very broad definition of hate speech. In
other words, if they hate you, yes, they'll pull your podcast.
That's honestly, that's a bit the way it sounded. I don't want
to put words in anyone's mouth because no one said that. But
it's like now, it was a lot of prep. No one said this. But my
interpretation was there was a lot of pressure. And it came
down to we got to be in this. We got to be on board with this. We
got to get him off, but they kick a lot of stuff off. Quote.
So he didn't invite Alex Jones to this meetup.
We kick off stuff that is Alt far right stuff from Germany.
And I didn't respond to that. And like, okay, mean, does that
automatically mean they hate Jews and are killing them on the
podcast? Or maybe they just don't like, how Germany is being
run. So it's very generally
what those podcasts are about. Yes. But they don't like the
migration issues. We're having. Yeah. So there's another reason
to kick them off. kick them off.
Yeah. So the bottom line is, keep going to the dinners. Keep
smiling, friendly. And you can do that. I think will be will be
just fine. Actually, I had a what's gonna
How's Benjamin doing?
Dance? Good. Yeah, yeah, he's, yeah, just just the same, I
guess. A little reminiscing about old days of old and just
the typical stuff. Yeah. I had something regarding speech. I'm
a little discombobulated. I want to dive, I want to dive
right into my clip list.
I was going to I'll dive right into this after I talked about
that. And there you go. So why don't you get started, and I'll
keep searching for whatever the hell it was. I was going to talk
about.
Let's go over the
Nevermind, I found it. Oh, shorty, you'll like it. And it's
about hate speech. I knew I had something. This is the European
Parliament. We are still in the throes of the Marrakesh
agreement, which is not discussed in the United States
of Gitmo nation. We're also not going to sign it. But the EU is
trying to get every one of the 27 member states to get on
board. The main thrust of this is that we recognize migration
as an international issue and everyone should be able to
migrate to wherever they want. No questions asked.
No borders, no
couple and yes, yes. No, no borders, no nations, no people.
And the end, the EU Parliament sees that there will be some
additions or some interpretations of the Marrakesh
agreement regarding speech
meant to be the legal framework on which the participating
countries committed themselves to build new legislation. And
one basic element of this new agreement is the extension of
the definition of hate speech. The agreement want to
criminalize migration speech, criticism of migration will
become a criminal offense. And media outlet is
a joke. This is you know, this is not the onion. Unless this
was overdubbed. Somehow, and I didn't catch it. I'll just
finish it up some
of migration will become a criminal offense and media
outlets. And it also concerns you that give room to criticism
of migration can be shut down. There you go. Yeah,
it's bull crap. a hoax. There's no way that this is a real clip.
It's okay. It's the guys at the European Union. He's answering
questions from the press. He's there with other EU Parliament
buddies.
I'm just saying. I'm just saying okay, well, you know what, you
don't think that this is a little sketchy? Yes. But
I searched and I looked and I saw that people say sounds
sketchy, but my eyes don't lie. I mean, it's in the European
Parliament press conference about the Marrakesh agreement.
And this is a question he came
up in arms about this, this threat now, well, you know, the
Italians already said no to it. Yes. The Hungarians have said no
to it. The Polish have said no to a lot of people was that no,
this thing is not going anywhere. but that is beside the
point. The point being what you clip I will be stunned if that
guy if that's actually true, stunned, right? He's going way
too far that's going overboard.
It doesn't surprise me. I mean, hate speeches, this is exactly
what you'd expect hate speech is completely broad. It can be
interpreted anyway, there's no there are no existing laws about
in the United States speech of speech. But in the Europe in the
UK, there's all kinds of restrictions on hates.
Follow this, and I agree with that, but I've never heard any
discussion of migration becoming a crime, you know, a jailable.
offense. Migration sucks. It's a jail stem.
I think it's, I don't know if well, maybe it could be even
like that. But if you say something nasty about a public
politician in the UK, that is an offense that you can go to jail
for. So this is not that far. It's not even their own people.
Okay. Dwell on this one. Yeah. I was very surprised.
Very surprised. Still sounds like the onion to me.
You know, you gotta be careful because you know, I do come to I
do check on things that you don't believe what you say is
wrong. And
I don't see it that often. But that thing you have to admit,
out of the blue, listen to that. That's a little bit out of line.
Absolutely.
But still died, I see no reason to not believe what this clip
that I've seen. It looks extremely believable. It's hard.
It is. That's something that you would call on believable.
Yeah. Well, it is unbelievable. And I don't believe it. Now.
I just want to play it no agenda classic. On the last show. We
had a little back and forth about what I had said about
Trump and you said the guy will never win. And I said, No, I
think he can. And I have the genesis of this from 2015. This
is what should be done. But no politician
is going to do that. He's doesn't got a prayer. He won't
get nominated. You make a big splash make it big. See, he's
not spending a lot of money. I don't see any. He doesn't have
to write. I don't think he's spending anything. So it's not
like it's got to travel.
Did you notice that Huffington Post reports all Donald Trump
news on the entertainment section of the website.
Very funny. That's objective coverage. Of course, of course,
okay, let's play this good. Because they're just gonna be
relentless. They're gonna there's meetings going on, you
can be sure of this. Anyone listening to this? Anytime
you're listening, there are meetings right now in New York,
Washington and elsewhere. What are we going to do about this
guy?
Make him president why not just let him when they're getting
paid
not to make him president that's what these meetings are about.
These are not meetings and people that
I use are these are lobbyists. And I would think that the
lobbyists will take money from other people look to the smart
money is going to say you know what? Let's go with this guy.
Let's run with him. He's on our side.
You're nuts. Jeb Bush you can play all those clips you want
because you've already admitted you cheat. cheat you from the
future.
Oh, this is true. Thanks, chase for pulling that clip. Thanks,
Jason. Now I'll play Oh, let me let me play a happy clip.
Because we talked about divorce check on typing this is this was
the DOS based typing tutor that featured John C Dvorak and
wouldn't you know it that there are people who love you so much
they have restored these games to work in a web browser games
and in this case the typing to get what is kind of this kind of
a game in fact, there's a menu option for games now it's very
it's like eight bit and no it's more like two bit audio I don't
know what kind of audio this was a bit is the right word. Is it
two bit because it's your sounds like it 27 seconds and the
workplace production team present on typing reports main
menu
again. Wait, hold on a second. You're not to play. That's not
how it's
no of course not. That's what it sounds today. Hold on back then,
you already knew it. So I guess the I guess the old I guess the
old game doesn't a good one
I use as the outro. It
it. It doesn't translate somehow with the audio I'm sure origins
sound buzzing
I mean this somebody didn't do a very good job.
But the fact that it works is pretty cool. Yeah, you gotta
love stuff like that. Alright, that's our show. I think we've
pretty much handled everything for
you probably played so much just today. I
think we're good. Now let's let's do some weight. I
got some funny All right. This is my favorite. This is my clip
about Trump gassing the Hondurans.
You mean women and children and little babies and diapers. It's
kind
of since the Trump administration defended the
border patrol for firing tear gas into crowds of migrants
including mothers and children as they tried to cross the US
border from Tijuana Sunday. This is Ronald Colburn, president of
the Border Patrol Foundation, former national Deputy Chief of
US Customs and Border Protection. Speaking on Fox and
Friends Monday,
the type of deterrent being used is oC pepper spray is literally
water, pepper with a small amount of alcohol for
evaporation purposes. It's natural, you could actually put
it on your nachos and eat it. So it's a good way of deterring
people without long term.
That's the Trump defense right there. But I think there's a
better one this has happened every month. It throughout the
Obama administration to they were tear gassing people at that
very same border crossing. There. Were guys trying to ram
the crossing, and vans, three vans at the same time. This is
nothing new. It's not new that we tear gas people at the
border. It's just not and I don't you know, it's like, it's
so obvious what what mainstream media is doing. It's just it's
really is lies. I mean, actually, it's not lying because
this happened under Trump's regime is dictatorship. But it's
been happening for years, years and years. So it's just it's
disingenuous, I think is the the term I'm looking for
January, the news media think
just just a tad.
I do have some clips give a little background on the
Honduras thing because I think that democracy debt now did a
very good job of they brought in Dana Frank who just wrote a book
about the coup now what do you remember? And we it was during
our show that this manual is a layup. Who was elected
president, he was elected honcho of Honduras. And we orchestrated
a coup, where we picked him up at night and in his bedroom in
his underwear at gunpoint, put him on a plane, flew him to to
Costa Rica and dropped him off in the middle of the of the
tarmac naked and then took off. Yeah, yeah, we have that whole
thing we call the wham bam. Here's a little reminder of this
is the Honduras coup manuals delay by Dana Frank discusses
this, I wanted
to go back to 2009 when there was a coup in Honduras and the
democratically elected leader, the Honduran President Manuel
Zelaya spoke on Democracy Now about what happened to him. They
attack my house at 530 in the morning, a group of at least 200
to 250 armed soldiers, with hoods and bulletproof vests and
rifles, aim their guns at me fired shots, use machine guns,
kicked down the doors. And just as I was in pajamas, they put me
on a plane and flew me to Costa Rica. This all happened in less
than 45 minutes.
I do remember that. That's a long time ago.
So this is they've never actually been true. Dana Frank
has done some research. She's a professor at UC Santa Cruz. And
she's come out with a book about this. And she they say there's
no real smoking gun to prove that it was Hillary, who was the
state department head at the time, who orchestrated this or
this it was a CIA Hillary thing, which is part of the reason I
think that the CIA Yes, think about Trump, and this whole
Honduran caravan, which CNN says doesn't even exist. If you
remember. There's no such thing. It's a hoax. Yes. is all because
of the policies that were instituted by Hillary and Obama.
And let's play this clip on Honduras, cu Hillary responsible
when you interviewed Hillary Clinton when she was running for
president. When you were working at the Daily News, you asked her
about the coup, she was not pleased to ask her about her
support the US support for the coup when she was Secretary of
State. So what went from the Democrats right through to
President Trump and if you can talk about the extent of the
support, and why you see that linked to what we're seeing with
the migrants today, as you say these are refugees from US
policy.
Well, we don't have a smoking gun that shows the US back the
coup from before it happened. But all the evidence is very
clear that the US wanted the coup to stabilize after two
place that the US recognize the bogus election of November 2019
That brought Porfirio Lobo to power and that the US has
continued to recognize the ongoing coup regime, especially
that of one Armando Fernandez to although he has come in, he
stole probably took stole them up to we don't really know in
2013. He very clearly ran for president last year in violation
of the Constitution, which bans re election and then he sold the
election in November last year. Again, Salvador Nasrallah, yeah,
you know, against an all united opposition, which very clearly
won. So the US has given them but it's so it's not just a
question of the US supporting the coup itself. I mean,
clearly, Hillary Clinton is was responsible for that. But don't
forget the Barack Obama was her boss, and he's responsible to
row. No, no, no, this
gets deeper, real men bad. This is all coming out because of the
President of Honduras, his brother was just arrested as a
major drug dealer. And the argument that she makes in the
book is that this is a narco state in Honduras. Yes. And so
everybody is, it's like, dude, like, it's like the gang land is
running the face, all the small businesses are closing down,
because they ought to pay tribute to the local boss and
all this sort of thing. And it's become a nightmare. And that's
one of the reasons that they're marching on the US to come into
the country, because we're the ones who probably set this whole
thing in motion. But why don't they just
hold on a sec. So that's really what the media should be
reporting, because that makes sense to say, hey, we did all
this. And that's why they're all pissed off. And they're and it's
all crazy. And they're running away from this dangerous place.
And they want asylum, apparently, some of them do. But
they can't report on it, because then they'd have to say that it
was Hillary and Obama, who put that in place. Is that the
issue? Hello,
the current president's brother arrested in Miami for drug
trafficking.
Well, we've known for a long time, two years now that want in
Orlando's brother. Tony was involved in drug trafficking. He
was in fact named in US Federal Court two years ago. And we know
that there are drug traffickers from top to bottom in the
Honduran government. So for hinderances, it's no surprise,
what's important is that he actually was arrested. And
that's going to be presumably brought to justice. What the
signal so is what people call an outsourcing of the criminal
justice system. Why was why was he not brought to justice United
State? Excuse me, why was he not brought to justice in Honduras?
It shows that there's a complete breakdown of the hunter and
criminal justice system that this man wasn't brought to
justice a long time ago in Honduras.
Okay. Now, a couple of things. She also mentioned that Hillary
put something in her when that's why I lost book. In her
hardcover edition, she took it out for the paperback back
version it had to do with Honduras, and a Cavalier comment
that she made about putting the original guy who's elected back
in office. She's, well, it went something like this. Well, you
know, what difference does it make? So she pulled that out of
the paperback version, she got some flack for it. But now
there's this really last clip. This is the this is the word,
Dana Frank makes the argument that this is yeah, I was set up
by Obama and Hillary. And then now all the troubles in that
part of the world are released stems from that, but it was
carried forward. And it went right into the Trump
administration, they really haven't done too much about it,
although they did arrest the brother. So there may be doing
something about it. But then but another name kind of crops up in
her exposition of who how you can track you know, this the the
whole thing through, drag it right through the Trump
administration and late landed on one guy who happens to be a
coincidental player in the Trump administration. So if you can
figure out who this is, when she says his name,
the US gay has given his postcode regime, green light
after green light after green light, so it's not just and it's
not just Obama,
what's his name? Luis de. Was it was that a name at the
beginning? No,
okay. I
didn't I couldn't hear the US gay.
Gay light after green light after green light. So it's not
just and it's not just Obama. It's not just Hillary Clinton.
It's also John Kerry. Now Donald Trump and his secretaries of
State Tillerson Pompeo, John Bolton at the National Security
Council, Mark put Senator Marco Rubio who was reportedly the
person advising Pompeo on US policy in Honduras right now. So
this is an ongoing policy. And the hundreds will be very quick
to tell you that the one Orlando's regime continues
because of useless support, not just the police and military aid
which is poor. Union, but this this legitimation of the regime
and if you want to see the continuities, the key figure
here is is a General John Kelly, who was the head of the United
States Southern Command out of Miami. Before he was Chief of
Staff for Trump, and he very much has supported one Orlando
Hernandez. He called him a magnificent guy and a good
friend. And here's how we can see this continuity from one
resume to the next.
Ah, you think that, huh? Interesting.
Yeah. Nobody's talking. I mean, I was glad that they brought
this woman on Democracy Now does this once in a while they bring
on somebody who wrote a book. So it's very well researched and a
lot of good documentation in there. She's got a few things to
tell us. Nobody else would cover it.
Now. What I'm not so sure of is that the caravan consists of a
lot of Hondurans. I mean, that has been so poorly covered.
We're not good. They're not going to cover not do anything.
In fact, here's here's I have an MBA MSNBC report. Where this
Yes,
I have this. I have this report.
The mostly men? Yes, it's very good. And it
listened to the president who says it's not women and
children. It's Stone Cold criminals. So my first question
is, you're in that tent camp, the sides that family give us
the profile of who is there mostly
got the reporter on the ground he's in, he's in the camp, he's
looking around, what are they looking
for, because it seems as though to your point, they don't
actually have the necessary information. So they know how to
cross the border, there could have people there could be
people yesterday, who were running, because they thought it
was their only chance,
right. And it's very difficult because this has become such a
polarizing issue. If we kind of take a walk, you'll you'll be
able to see for yourself. Again, this is the inner sanctum of the
shelter. So you're gonna see a lot of families here, a lot of
women and children. But the truth is the majority of the
people that are part of this caravan, especially outside, if
we can make our way all the way over there, we'll show you, the
majority of them are men. So people on one side that point
and say, there are women and children here, and that is true.
And then there are others who point and say, these are our men
that are trying to cross the border. And that's true, too.
From what we've seen, the majority are actually men, and
some of these men have not articulated that need for
asylum. Instead, they have talked about, you know, going to
the United States for a better life and to find work. But if we
come this way, here, we're just gonna leave this is where, where
there's a food bank that's set up, and you've got a long
run, do you I mean, I cut it off after this. You want to go for
another 42 seconds with something else in there.
Just talking about your 500 Men lined up
line of men. Earlier, we saw about five 600 men standing in
line waiting for food and it looks like that dwindled down,
but this is the outskirts and we're going to pass through
here. I'm going to show you where there's some there's some
police officers. And this is the this is the outer perimeter.
Yeah.
Anyway, the point was is that the MSNBC girl who was like all
bent out of shape about
Stephanie Stephanie rules definitely. Orange Man bad now
she's, she's freaking out all the time. Well, she's, she's,
he's free. So so just to step back for a second there is no
evidence these are all Hondurans, it could be just a
whole bunch of Mexicans who are hanging out getting ready to go
now there's been no reporting on that, you know, the, the iconic
photo now of the mother with the two kids in diapers, were being
tear gas, you know, there's now alternate shots from all you can
see that they were staged the dog camera guys everywhere, but
the thing that really gets me is in we're talking about illegal
immigrants. And I've I've been through the system many times
three, actually, I've helped people it is a way to do it. And
you can do it. It's not cheap. I think that's a problem. Because
it will cost you probably between three and $5,000. To but
you know, that's what people pay to the, to the coyotes, you
know, to get in illegally. So, okay. But it's construed in the
media as you just hate other people. You just hate brown
people. You don't want people to come in and, and be an immigrant
for the American dream. Which is bullcrap. Because if you come in
legally, we want you to come in, we want you to have the American
dream. I still think immigration is about that. You can come in,
you can look at it. It used to be you'd look at Donald Trump
and say I'd be that guy one day. You can't do that anymore.
That's orange MAN. Bad. But Geraldo, who is, you know, I
think he's clearly left leaning, although he's on Fox, and he's
often a voice of reason, which is appreciated. But he shows the
true thinking about immigration. He's not thinking about the
American dream. Now he's coming unglued. And then the the real
truth slips out.
Do you think that's honest? What the media is doing or does sauna
refused to deal with this as a media issue because it was far
too important with all due respect Jessie this is something
that goes to the very quick this goes to my soul, but that's
filling my role as the designated pin yada on Fox News.
I want to say it's racist. I am ashamed. This tear gas choke me.
We treat these people these economic refugees, is it there's
zombies from The Walking Dead? I think we arrested 42 people,
eight of them are women with children. We have to deal with
this problem you mainly and with compassion,
these are not the these are not invaders. Stop using these
military analogies.
This is absolutely painful to watch. This is we are a nation
of immigrants. These are desperate people they walk 2000
Miles why? Because they want to rape your your daughter or steal
your your lunch? No, because they want a job. Well, they want
to fill the millions of unfilled jobs we have in the agricultural
sector. They want to wash dishes in the restaurant, they want to
deliver the pizzas. For goodness sake. I I can't we suspend our
humanity when it comes to this issue? And I fear that it is
because they look different than the other.
There it is. There's Geraldo he says these people they come for
the American dream to wash your dishes to clean your toilets to
pick your fruit. sauces. You Geraldo fuck you.
I'm sorry, why? Hey, the woman from the view who is called out
to say the same thing who's going to wash our toilets?
Unbelievable. That is unbelievable. I'll give you
okay, I'm gonna give, I would have given you a clip of the day
of whoever recorded that
for you. I recorded that myself
had done a better job of, you know, maybe using some.
I actually tried to filter it, it was so impossible to filter
it. I did everything I could and just that was the best I could
get. But I worked on it. It was not just sent to me and
unprocessed. But anyway, that's that is that is really that's
hate speech right there. Yeah, we want these economic migrants
to come in illegally to wash my floor, wash my dishes, clean my
toilet. That's not how I think. But that's how our Geraldo
thinks. And why is this so accepted? I mean, are they?
It's beyond me. It wasn't accepted on the view. And that
woman said it?
Did someone call her out on it. They all called her out on it.
Good, good. It's just unconscionable. And she
apologized. Yeah, well, I'm sick of this Geraldo saying that
stuff. It's illegal. He leaves illegal immigration, not the
same as legal migration to come here for the American dream. And
we can you know, on the books, we could do about 100,000 a
year. I think that's, that is the legal limit currently, which
you know, that's legal immigration. It's not a lot when
you think about it.
Well, we've got a couple of things here. We've got Manafort,
I want to play these clips, because I just want to show you
the difference in the way people cover stuff.
Okay. That's just a little background are on this app. It's
in the show notes. I'm not going to read it. But it was this is
actually I have a backer I do have a backgrounder on Manafort.
Manafort. Yeah, I
actually put it under Ministry of truthiness as a here, I'll
just just a little background, and then we'll talk about it
because the Guardian published something and this report is
from right after it was published. But the Guardian has
since changed many pieces of this article, you know, those
was bogus. But I love these little systems that will track a
web page, and they'll show it to you in the colors where things
changed. And they completely took it away from this happen to
he wanted to do this. A source said it could have happened kind
of thing. And I think the Guardian should should get in
trouble for what they did
the backdrop to this new report coming out from the Guardian
just this morning, that says Paul Manafort met with Julian
Assange, a claim that WikiLeaks about four minutes ago, tweeted
out and disputed, can you explain what the significance of
this would be? Again, if accurate, The Guardian is
hinging this I think on one well placed source they're citing?
Well, in my understanding Halley from one of the reporters that's
been involved, Luke Harding, who I happen to know is that this is
based on on on source or sources, as well as some
documents that they've been able to review. You know, highlight
the significance of this. The Guardian report says that Paul
Manafort visited the Ecuadorian embassy and Julian Assange in
March of 2016. This was around the time is you and I both know
well, you being on the campaign trail and us talking about this,
that Paul Manafort was was joining the Trump campaign are
about to join the Trump campaign. We need a little bit
more detail on those dates so we can be specific about it. In
addition, that Guardian report says that Paul Manafort had
other trips to the Ecuadorian embassy in London, and that
those trips started around I believe, 2013, if I remember the
report correctly, and why specifically that embassy which
is of course, where Julian Assange lives. So yeah, I think
this is a report that bears bears more follow
up at this point. And just to explain some of the timeline
here, you're correct on this, this apparently did begin in
2013. sources have said Manafort, according to the
Guardian went to see Assange as recently as spring of 2016.
According to one of their sources, it was in March of
2016. As you know, obviously Paul Manafort joined the
campaign shortly thereafter that the Trump campaign that is,
months later, WikiLeaks released those emails, we should note
that Paul Manafort lawyers did not comment, at least to the
Guardian, Tom
did just speak to Hallie, just to that point I did, just to
Jason Maloney, Paul Manafort, spokesperson, and at this point,
they are not putting out an on the record response, although
that may change later today. And they may be able to provide us
with something that we can that we can report. So I want to say
that, that we have reached out to Paul Manafort representatives
about this story as well.
So the way I understand that went down here is Manafort was
asked if he had met with Julian Assange. He said, No, and then
immediately, you're lying to us because in our whether the
Guardian came first or Muller gave it to the Guardian,
however, the Guardian got this information. Turns out it was
really incorrect. Yeah, like I was, clearly it was kind of
already fake news from The Guardian. Yeah, well,
let's play the two clips I wanted to play which would go
over the same exact thing again, but differently. Yes. And let's
start with the Manafort update with with bass Assange info CBS
something
White House press secretary Sarah Sanders dismissed today.
I'm not aware of any conversations for anyone's
pardon. Adding to Manafort troubles. The British newspaper
The Guardian reported today Manafort held secret meetings
with WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange inside the Ecuadorian
embassy in London, including one in 2016, just months before
WikiLeaks released a trove of stolen democratic emails.
Manafort call the story totally false and deliberately libelous.
Assange also threatened legal action. In September, the former
Trump campaign chairman agreed to cooperate with the special
counsel in exchange for other charges against him being
dismissed. It was molars biggest victory to date, because
Manafort could provide valuable information about any
cooperation between the Trump campaign and Russia. In a court
filing last night, prosecutors did not reveal what Manafort
lied about, but promised to eventually issue a report
detailing Manafort crimes and lies. His lawyer says he has met
with the special counsel's office several times and
provided truthful information. Former whitewater investigator
Solomon Weissenberg says Manafort maybe playing the long
game. It's a
good hypothesis though. He never intended to cooperate. He's
angling for a pardon at some point in time, any collusion.
Yeah. And then the New York Post of all fine publications,
printed a report printed an interview with Trump where they
asked him would you pardon Manafort? And he said, Well,
it's it hasn't come up but why would I wouldn't not going to
rule it out. Not going to take it off the table. Long game in
collusion in cahoots. Oh, yeah, Orange Man bad.
Well, anyway, the point is is that day CBS V listen to that
carefully was they kind of took the side of the Guardian it
seems to me of course, I thought was a very poorly done story.
They did no research they never did ever pull back.
The Guardian, John. No, it's the guardian. You can always like
the the New York Times of England.
Yes, candidate Well, yeah.
meddling in our affairs. I might point out the Brits are meddling
in our affairs over here.
Again, again. So here's Listen, listen to better Assange.
Manafort stories is better. Assange Manafort story,
Democracy Now.
Oh, I'm sorry. Oh, my I have a different one queued up.
Your lawyers for Julian Assange said the Wikileaks founder will
sue the Guardian newspaper for libel. After it reported Tuesday
that Paul Manafort held secret talks with Assange inside the
Ecuadorian embassy in London on three occasions. The alleged
meetings occurred the Guardian alleged in 2013 2015 and in
March of 2016. Around the time Manafort joined Donald Trump's
presidential campaign, lead author Luke Harding cited a
quote well placed source as the basis of the report and a
statement Manafort called the report totally false and
deliberately libelous, WikiLeaks said in a tweet, quote,
WikiLeaks is willing to bet the Guardian a million dollars and
it's editor's head that Manafort never met Assange.
Actually, I want to read some of these differences from new
sniffer from this Guardian article. So this is the original
article and then the change came about one hour after that. So
first of all, the headline Manafort held secret talks with
Assange and Ecuadorian Embassy. eight hour later, Manafort held
secret talks with Assange in the Ecuadorian Embassy sources say
right off the bat.
Back in Belfast, that backpedaling as fast as they
can, but But I should mention that the writer, the main
writer, who she mentioned, and I guess there's some other writer
involved are notorious for doing this recreating these fake
stories on behalf of MI six or someone
Oh, well, that makes sense here. It's unclear why Manafort wanted
to see Assange and what was discussed. An hour later, it is
uncleared why Manafort would have wanted to see Assange and
what was discussed originally, but the last meeting is likely
to come under scrutiny change, but the last apparent meeting is
likely to come under scrutiny. And then they added a paragraph.
In a series of tweets WikiLeaks said Assange and Manafort had
not met, Assange described the story as a hoax. And then
further, according to two sources, Manafort returned to
the embassy in 2015. The change according to the sources,
Manafort returned to the embassy in 2015. Next change, why
Manafort Manafort. He's now known as Manafort why Manafort
sought out Assange in 2013 is unclear the change why Manafort
might have sought out Assange in 2013 is unclear. So there you
have it. Total bull crap. This really just blew.
Yeah, never happened.
And this is something that if you could report on I mean, this
is reportable, this new sniffers Great. Now they're changing
their story to do the same thing the National Enquirer does
the walking back to story as fast as they can. That would be
the technical description. Yes, yeah, they are. So that was a
scam.
Am just staying on this hole, any collusion vibe. CNN claims
to have answers to two of the questions that Trump gave in
writing to the Muller team. How they got it? Who knows.
And we are getting the first insight into how the President
responded to Robert Muller's written questions, which, until
now has been a big unknown. So sources familiar with this
matter? Tell CNN toothpicks? Number one, the President told
the special counsel that Roger not
notice, notice what's going on here? Did I not hear that say
that she has these answers and then goes into according to
sources. Let's play that again.
And we are getting the first insight into how the President
responded to Robert Mueller has written questions, which, until
now has been a big unknown. So sources familiar with this
matter? Tell CNN two things. Number one, the President told
the special counsel that Roger Stone did not tell him about
WikiLeaks. And number two, that the President was also not told
about the 2016 Trump Tower meeting between his son campaign
officials and a Russian lawyer who of course, promised dirt on
Hillary Clinton. Now, the caller's answers were described
to us without providing any direct quotes and said that the
President made clear he was answering to the best of his
recollection on these two points here, WikiLeaks and the Trump
Tower meeting. They are really key, as far as we know, to
Robert Mueller central mission when he started this
investigation, which is Was there any collusion between
collusion and the Russians? And if so how high up doesn't go as
well? Yeah. How is this going any higher?
How high up does it go? I don't know what they mean. But it's
interesting here, then Trump, but it's interesting that she
just made very clear that this is according to sources. So she
hasn't seen this, according to sources. Now listen to what she
does next.
And if so, how high up doesn't go as well. Yeah. How is this
different?
What we know he's said here, compared to what he said
publicly?
We're told Brianna, that what the President said in these
written answers is similar matches actually what he has
said in public, but of course, there's a big difference. These
written answers will be subjected to criminal charges,
if false. That's why it is our understanding that the President
made clear his answers were the best of his recollection, which
is standard for lawyers as a way to shield their clients to make
sure that they're not in any legal trouble.
I must be lying. That's why you do that to make sure you're not
in any legal trouble. It's the same thing. In the back looking
better these days actually, I'm not quite sure what she's done.
I think they probably I think she just had her programming
change. So when she reconstitutes yourself as a
human form, her eyeballs are a little smaller.
Which brings me to my bot story and let me see. Actually now
I'll do that later. It's a part of OTG it's too lengthy
So again, another couple of comparison stories to do. Okay.
I have the Russia Ukraine dust up. Yes, I actually have ordered
on p at night go into mainstream media and go Well, I'm going to
kind of I'm gonna do the PVS compared to Democracy Now.
Knowing PBS I don't think cares that much about the situation
but democracy now is a big, you know, pro for some reason, pro
Ukraine and pro you know, hate Russia because
they're and it's all anti Russia and moderate socialist. We have
a huge, huge oil interest in Ukraine. All the elites do John
Kerry Joe Biden, their sons have have business there. Was it to
who put 5 billion in was that Chevron?
I don't remember. But let's play the Democracy Now. version
first,
Russia is sending advanced surface to air missiles to the
Crimean peninsula, and its mounting tensions with Ukraine.
The escalation comes after Russia's Navy captured three
Ukrainian ships Sunday and arrested sailors near a narrow
waterway separating Russia from Crimea, which Russia seized and
illegally annexed in 2014. On Tuesday, Ukrainian press
interesting,
a next I thought was annexed.
She said the next annex which Russia seized and
stopped it hold on a second. I want to point something out that
especially with Democracy Now, Russia never sees the debt. They
had a.
She said he legally see
legalese. Just go ahead and vote. I want to mention
something because I do have a couple of reports from her on
East Sahara, and or Western Sahara, I'm sorry, which is an
independent country that they won't they won't let become its
own independent entity and she makes a big stink about it in
the report when you listen to her. And all these people will
do that is by the logs from the left is why don't they let them
choose what they want to what country what they went through
for the rulers, they go on about that. But apparently the
Crimeans couldn't can't do that. And so that's a bad thing. You
can't do that in here because of some relationship to Russia.
Well, it's because of okay in East Sahara when you're trying
to get out of the rule of Moroccans with Denis another
discussion. I just want to point out this kind of nuttiness that
you keep hearing with this, with just reports from these guys,
and arrested sailors near narrow waterways separating Russia from
Crimea, which Russia seized and illegally annexed in 2000. Annex
14 On Tuesday, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko said
Ukraine faces the prospect of an all out war with Russia. Thank
you.
These Russian tanks were not withdrawn yet they remain there
at the Ukraine Russia border. And that's why I don't want
anyone to think that it's entertainment or a game the
country is under the threat of a full fledged war with the
Russian Federation
now oh god you know, full fledge toward the Russians is kind of
what you walk away from his desert we're borderline war is
the is the message you come away from with the war and peace
report from democracy now. So let's listen to something this
time instead of listening to the guy from Ukraine, let's see the
other side of this story from Putin. And maybe there's an
explanation that makes a little more sense from PBS.
Russia's military announced today that it is sending more
anti aircraft missiles to occupied Crimea amid a new
crisis with Ukraine. Russian vessels seized three Ukrainian
ships and 24 sailors in the Kerch Strait on Sunday, claiming
they illegally entered the area. Today President Vladimir Putin
charged that Ukraine's President provoked the crisis to help his
reelection chances.
If you easily now a small incident occurred and martial
law was introduced in the country but this is being done
obviously in the run up to the presidential polls and
absolutely obvious fact. Now this is a provocation but we're
sure.
Also today the Kremlin said it's still expects Mr. Putin to meet
with President Trump at the G 20. Summit. Mr. Trump threatened
yesterday to cancel that meeting over the Russian actions against
Ukraine.
Now, because of the martial law, if you think about it, you get
everybody in a war statue, you know, so it's not the word I'm
looking for. stature. getting everybody ready for war is what
Bush used to do when he will try to get when he got when he did
get reelected. He we had red alert, you know, the terrorists
are gonna Obama's again we got to be on our toes Daraa toes
because of red alert. And then the election happened and this
was like a scam that bush pulled on the American public. Yes. And
everyone called him out for this as well. And so he said it
wasn't a scam and this is what's going on. I think that's exactly
what I think Putin's exactly right this guy there's an
election coming up yeah, this is a great way to go is to provoke
an incident put martial law in place say that we're going to be
raided any minute by all these tanks for me
and vote for me and vote for me. Here's the here's the report
from Ukraine radio into radio Ukraine International. As far as
I can tell, it is not your typical USA ID outfit. It is not
by funded by the State Department. Although the
Ukrainian government did cut its funding significantly, a year or
two back. So here's what they have to say, of the 2003 treaty
between Russia and Ukraine designates the Kerch Strait and
this Sea of Azov has shared territorial waters. But Moscow
has been asserting greater control over the area. Since its
annexation of the Crimean Peninsula in 2014. Particularly
since May this year, when it opened the new 19 Kilometer
bridge linking the peninsula to Russian territory have occurred
straight. So what I heard is that they that one of these
ships, and I don't know if it's true or not, it's Russian
propaganda, no doubt that one of these ships was ready to blow up
the bridge. And that's what bless you. And that's what this
was maybe about. But I like your explanation far better. It makes
nothing but sense. Be afraid. Vote for me.
Yeah, be afraid vote for me. I liked a bridge concept, but
still sounds bogus. Yeah. Because that would cause a
problem. Yeah, bridge is like a big deal. It's
a very big deal. Yeah. Just been
recently opened. So but they've made no, that'd be an act. That
is an act of war, they would get into what
they've made. No. And also, there's a lot going on, we got
the TurkStream. You know, although that's not the it's,
you know, in the Black Sea. But there's just a lot of activity
happening there right now. And I sorry, I still like you're so
like your thesis the best. That's the one that makes sense.
When is the election? Exactly. Do you think it's next month?
Oh, coming up? Now then we should do another scare in about
10 days? Do we can get something going? And yeah.
So I was listening to as my last Democracy Now clip, I'm
listening to them because they had to, you know, they lead the
news with the global warming stuff, because that gives me the
opportunity to go to all these global warming conference and go
to Paris, which at this time, she's going to Poland,
Netherlands and Poland. It's,
it's the Paris of Eastern Europe.
Yeah, Krakow probably a good place to visit. So, but I only
wanted to clip the, because I was listening to one of the
YouTube guys some Nobel laureate going on. And he's just saying
the whole thing is kind of bogus for all kinds of very particular
reasons. And he never mentioned the computer simulation problem
that they have. But he did say the one thing which was how come
every time there's going to be something like global warming,
everything is going to be bad, nothing good is ever good. Why?
Why do I like the possibility that something good could happen
ever it was there's a change of anything is there no chance at
anything good could come of it. And so I was that was in the
back of my mind as I clipped this. The Global Warming report,
which only talks about all the horrible things that are going
to happen
to see a global rise of 3.2 degrees Celsius, or nearly six
degrees Fahrenheit by the end of the century. Such a rise with
the devastating droughts, floods and extreme weather with
increased sea level crop failures, mass migration and
global conflict. The UN is calling for new investments in
renewable energy and for governments to replace subsidies
on fossil fuels with taxes to discourage their use. The stark
warning came ahead of the UN climate talks set for Qatar,
we'd say Poland next month,
and I'll be there reporting live. I'm Amy Goodman, The War
and Peace Report.
She did make that clear that she's gonna be there yet. So
you're gonna have famine and drought. By the way, droughts
and flooding was a very interesting thing to happen at
the same time. droughts and flooding and famine and war,
we're all die. Nobody ever thinks that maybe Greenland melt
down and we're going to end up with the growing seasons up
there. Maybe they're flying gold. Who knows?
Well, Al Gore is on the warpath for this and I'm sure this is
perfectly time with the Polish adventure. December 3 and fourth
or third through the fourth. He will be coming to you with 24
hours of reality.
The climate crisis signs all around us the stakes are high,
the healthy future hangs in the balance. Tune in December 3 and
fourth, his former Vice President Al Gore is joined by
world leaders, climate and health experts and entertainers
in an examination of how the climate crisis threatens our
health and communities and what we can do to solve this global
challenge. It's our responsibility to protect our
body, our planet, our future. 24 hours of reality, when we
protect, protect ourselves.
Yeah, baby. Is this 24? Well, you know, the entertainment is
going to be the Goo Goo Dolls.
I mean, you got to tell what this is, is this event in New
York is this he's Madison Square Garden special. Now it's TV
event is going to be on cable.
It's a video event only as far as I know, online, he did this a
couple of years ago, he does this from time to maybe it was
even last year, he does this 24 hours of reality and gets
everyone together. And they'll talk about it. And you know,
then the Goo Goo Dolls will perform. Now Rihanna wasn't
available, apparently. So she'll just be in it. And I love the
title 24 hours of reality. Let's see what the BBC says about all
this and orange MAN bad
on climate change as well. He says he doesn't believe a report
done by his own administration that points to some very serious
economic impacts. This is a bit of a pattern, isn't it? I mean,
he undercuts his administration all the time, why
and constantly. And it's this is a president who comes to office
with some very firmly held views.
This is the read I think his name is from the hill, about
immigration, about climate change, and about the way things
used to be in America making America great again. And Climate
Change report is a part in that
interesting. So it's because he's he's old, obviously, old
fashioned, you know, so he wants to, you know, his own white
drinking fountain just wants to keep things the way they are,
you know, it was good. You know, before climate change, I'm just
going to go Nananananana. It's not happenings,
about immigration, about climate change, and about the way things
used to be in America, making America great again. And the
Climate Change report is a part of that. I mean, this is
something that there is scientific consensus on there's
no serious scientific opposition to the notion that
there's no serious opposition. Not serious
scientific opposition to the notion that climate change is
real and getting worse and caused by humans. But the
President is not willing to bend his preconceived notions on
that. Sciences and science.
Crazy
the way they gloss over the 30,000 scientists who signed
that
letter, isn't that fantastic? I wonder are they people
that like myself have keep complaining that hey, this is
based on computer simulations is notoriously useless.
Here's a here's a question. So let's just take let's take
Berkeley, California, had we implemented everything necessary
in 2000. I put in the show notes again, that report from 2000. In
fact, I will read it to you from Reuters. United Nations, a
senior United Nations Environmental official says
entire nations could be wiped off the face of the earth by
rate right rising sea levels. If the global warming global
warming trend is not reversed by the year 2000. This is actually
from 89. I'm sorry. Yeah, the 89 report, coastal flooding and
crop failures would create an exodus of eco refugees
threatening political chaos, said Noah Brown, Director of the
New York Office of the UN Environment Program, you NEP, he
said governments have a 10 year window of opportunity to solve
the greenhouse effect before it goes beyond human control.
So they were predicting disaster by 2000? Yes.
So what would happen if we had implemented everything? I mean,
how much cooler would it be? Would it be two degrees to
cooler right now?
I don't know. It's cold out today. Hey, man,
weather's not climate bro. Meanwhile, France, Manu McCall.
He's taking this to heart. And here's the strategy for France
as part of their strategy, they're going to close 14
nuclear reactors by 2035.
Yeah, is he cuckoo? Yeah,
this is nuts. I mean, that is going to have that country
it's one of the greatest systems in the world for creating energy
it's been flawless it hasn't produced a bunch of bad stuff
it's it's they're all standardized. So all the
reactors are the same so they don't cost that much to put up
or staff they're not you know, the problem that we have with
our General Electric is some of these Westinghouse some of these
reactors we they're all custom made you need just you everyone
has to be trained on different reactors. It's a disaster. Yeah,
although they're more efficient. Are they fancy or are they do
more, more developed more power? Who knows? But the French system
has been absolute Really the best and most reliable in the
world? And it's clean energy. Yep. So why are they doing this?
To help the new green
country and in doing too I think France is 80% new electricity
pays for everything. Yeah. Can't get that from wind
but but well, they at least may have natural gas. The other
Netherlands is really on
track to get gas isn't nearly as clean as nuke
No, but they're not even going to do that. They're going to do
wind and solar. And man they're gonna be it's gonna be tough to
read at night in, in France, without electricity. I also
don't really think that he's gonna go through with that it
just doesn't seem right Talk is cheap. Yeah, exactly. And with
that talk, I'd like to thank you for your courage to say in the
morning to you the man who put the sea in climate change John
C. Dvorak.
Well, I in the morning to you Mr. Adam curry. Also in the
morning all ships at the scene, the boots on the ground, the
feet in the air and the subs in the water in the morning, games
and all the nights out there in the

karma.
And last on our list is Brett Winslow from Dodgeville.
Wisconsin. John, I apologize for Spelling Grammar Mistakes. I'm
dyslexic, and I can do what I can do. I got it. I got a
longtime listener dude named Ben here. I've been monthly donor
for a long time I was one was at $10 for a while and then I left
my job to try to get out of the DNB business and take over the
family farm. I put my monthly contribution on the five. Well,
even though I worked my butt off the farming dream just didn't
work out for me, which is the case for a lot of others. Nine
back working in a DNB consulting gig, which I don't especially
like, Can I get some jobs? karmas are trying to find myself
something a little more work life balance as they say. Back
in the 80s 90s back in the 90s back in the 90s I first started
watching John and the show silicon spin. Being a geeky DNB
even in high school. What does DNB mean dude named Ben. Do name
Ben. Orange Man bad. I really I never really watched MTV sad to
say however, follow John to who show would not be named online
network then John himself hit me in the mouth of one of his many
shameless plugs. I feel like a douche bag for not having
donated more than my small monthly contribution over the
years. Not sure if it counts as being a douche bag. Just to be
sure can I get a D douching?
I think we can arrange for that. That should be no problem.
You've been D deuced.
Your $5 subscription. You're out of the douche bag category.
Hell yeah. Hell yeah. And thanks. Good work. You
both are open my eyes to what's really going on in the media
land both dimensions. I can't even stand to listen to
Wisconsin Public Radio anymore. I stopped my contribution to
that organization. So I figured I might as well give it to you
guys for Christmas. I love the simulation theory. However, my
understanding of the simulation hypotheses if that's true, we
would both we would all be bots non player characters in the
system. The idea that of a simulation gets to a really high
level the artificial characters themselves would not be able to
see watches a lot of Star Trek would not be able to tell they
are artificial. Is it possible we were running into characters
logged in from some outside now simulated University Star Trek
Next Generation episode that deals with a similar idea when
one of the characters in the holodeck realize he's in a
simulation and tricks the crew with his own hack and tries to
take over the ship.
No, no, no. Yeah. Well, I can tell you real quick. I believe
the simulation is possibly real, but the simulation runs for each
of us. So you are actually Yes, right now you in my simulation.
You're a bot of you. And that bot of you does the same thing.
All the time. But you have a different bot for me me in her
simulation.
Yeah, okay.
Amen. Okay. Okay. How can you argue with Elon Musk bro?
Elon Musk? is another reason this short is stock.
Right? And we want to thank our executive producer and Associate
Executive producers for supporting the program. We
really work hard on it. We know a lot of people get benefit and
that that gets me up in the morning to know that people feel
better about the just being inundated With all of this crap,
and especially on social media, so it's very, very painful for
everybody. And we tried to give you some solace. And this keeps
us going appreciate it. We'll be thanking more people $50 And
above and our second segment and a another program, I will be
coming to you from Chicago on Sunday. VO
rec.org/and.
Let you know that we'll have lots more for you to propagate
to everybody in your network. Our formula is this. We go out,
we hit people in the mouth.
Hey, I got a lot of social justice warrior stuff for some
not not clips necessarily, but just just go through a couple
stories. Okay. white liberals, according to research from Yale,
present themselves as less competent in interactions with
African Americans. They use simpler language.
I bet
this is one of those reports is like it's actually it's Yale,
the Yale School of Management. And they have not published this
study yet, but they did and it's going to be in the Journal of
Personality and Social Psychology. While many previous
studies have examined how people who hold racial bias have a
multi racial settings few have studied how whites who are more
well intentioned interact with people of other races. There's
less work that explores how well intentioned whites try to get
along with racial minorities but now they have this and they and
it turns out for a right wing let's just call them Republicans
although they have not there's less data of them speaking to
African Americans which is funny by itself there seems to be no
difference in how they address a group that is mainly made up of
African Americans but white liberals as this study the
proclaims tend to downplay their own verbal competence in
exchanges with racial minorities compared to other white
Americans act in such exchanges. Roe
I believe so in other words, Derek, you're talking to them
like their kids
to a degree I think yeah simplifying the language down to
him Yeah, cuz you know, they may not
weigh your dumb so I remembered superior white liberals. I'm
gonna talk to you like you're dumb. Yeah, I really actually
think you are. Yes, that's great.
From you, Derek from Yale
so I can actually talk with a bit of this.
In Darien Connecticut. Schools are now banding I didn't know
this was a thing. Parents in the lunchroom school lunch rooms. I
did not know this. But it see it apparently, these days. Lots of
parents go to see their kids during lunch break at the school
and hang out with them. What? Yeah, the helicopter parent?
What? Yes,
I would be mortified when I was a kid if my parents showed up at
the school lunchroom? Oh, well, interestingly, that'd probably
get beat up.
Well, now it's the parent old days. Now. It's the parents who
are upset. They're really upset that they can't, they can't Oh,
yeah. Terry Steadman, a parent told the board she was shocked
and driven to tears by the news to just ban parents from the
lunch room, which is effectively what you're doing with this
email. I don't think it's right. I don't think it's in the spirit
of a collaborative environment. Oh, God. This is I didn't know
it was a thing
I feel like ever heard is such a thing. This is all news. To me.
It
feels like a punch in the gut parent Jessica zoo, whose oldest
child is in the first grade said in an interview. I chose the
town for the schools. I'm so frustrated. The schools don't
want me there.
They don't know. Kids don't either lady
as well. Maybe not all these kids. Maybe they love it. Who I
don't know this. Everything's different. I don't have kids of
that age. Let's keep going. Florida police chief gets three
years for plot to frame black people for crimes. And the
reason I brought this story is you hear the story and you think
wow, that's so racist. Of course the police chief is black that
makes it a kind of weird story.
Head makes it funny. I just read it. That's that's how the humor
and racism? Yes,
yes, Australians. On all official government forms, they
finally figured it out. They want to be as inclusive as
possible. And Australians now we'll be able to choose from
multiple gender labels under a new proposal for all of their
governmental paperwork. I should mention 33 D Print gender labels
31st of all magic number but wow 33
And I wish I was 16 but 33 is makes more sense in the scheme
of things.
And then finally from the United Kingdom of Gitmo nation east,
the BFI the British Film Institute who fund a lot of a
lot of theatrical work movies, but I think also, they probably
fund like the Downton Abbey and that kind of stuff. They will
withhold funding for any movie that tries to make villains
scary with scarred faces. No longer can villains have scarred
faces because people with scarred faces are hurt by this
brother
What am I missing knows is that okay?
Now no no. If you look at all the you know, if you just think
about the famous villains I actually want to bring up this
article. Well, of course Blofeld James Bond's arch enemy big
scar. We have Freddy Krueger scarred we have while Star Wars
would even have scarred villains and of course we had the villain
in in The Lion King whose name was actually scar that also
should be for boat and I guess it's it's a little overboard
people. Just a little? Yeah. Before social media, we didn't
have all these problems.
You know what we did? We probably had it, but we didn't
know.
Oh, yeah. Oh, but if it's not discussed in a broad manner on
these. Yeah. With a network effect. Yeah, no one cares.
Otherwise. Yeah. All right. Well, I
get the story of the day, I think, because it's got everyone
all bent out of shape, but it wasn't played by the I'm
stunned. This wasn't played by the mainstream. This is Kushner
to get Mexico's highest honor.
Mexico will bestow Mexico's highest honor for foreigners on
Jared Kushner, President Trump's son in law and senior adviser
when Kushner arrives for the G 20 talks in Argentina. The move
drew scorn from prominent Mexicans including actor Gael
Garcia Bernal, who called the decision to award the Aztec
Eagle tremendously shameful. Previous winners include Nelson
Mandela and the Nobel Prize winning novelist Gabrielle
Garcia Marquez.
I just wanted I was irked by the story because the way you know,
it's just one of these bullcrap things you get you get awards
for being who you are, for some reason, I don't know why they're
giving it to him. But it's not like a bunch of bullets, or
Nobel Prize winners that don't want people to get it. I'm gonna
read it. Some of the people that get it well, he's gotten it's
just so you know, he's an advisor. Just so you guys know,
she gets what she said. She said he's an advisor.
Now. I'm sorry, I didn't catch that. Yes, that's what she said.
She said he's an advisor. I think she meant advise nerd. She
didn't know how to pronounce things. Melinda Gates. Okay, she
guy why she getting it. Well, she do. Hey, Bill Gates, his
name on the list for sleeping
with Bill Gates. I think you deserve a Presidential Medal of
Honor. Hey.
Adam mccurry.com Rick Bayless, who's that? Rick Bayless is a TV
cook that specializes in cooking Mexican cuisine. I can't
believe MSNBC should run with this story. You can do this
whole thing also previously awarded there's a steam the
steam award. The TV chef, they can mess you up they can make a
great story out of this.
Here's one that you'll like Bono.
You mean by No.
Why do I go mispronouncing Bono? I like it. Bono. Bono. He got
one. Meanwhile, all the presidents pretty much got one.
Walt Disney got one in 1943 Various politicians it seems
more like an entertainment prize than it does anything well I
don't know there's some
people I never heard of Eisenhower got one referral
Trujillo which is nasty dictator got one. It's just what we call
the kings and queens of the Netherlands are really loaded up
that Queen Beatrix got one King William Alexander got one maxima
got one wow the Queen too. Yeah, they they loaded up with the
Netherlands. Anyway, I could go on with these people. No, King
Olof of Norway got one anyway, it's just well, maybe we can get
one who knows why
find out what the criteria is. Maybe we can get ourselves. I
think it's
just I don't know if there is any criteria. It's and we read
from them. thing. It just says the order of the Aztec eagle is
the largest Mexican order awarded to foreigners in the
country. It was created in 1933. As a reward to the services
given to Mexico or humankind, by foreigners, it corresponds to
similar distinctions giving the Mexican citizens such as the
condeco Rs, the OMB Magewell Hidalgo, or the other one is
given by the Office of the foreign minister on the
instructions of a council established for the purpose
headed by the President. So in other words is like the awards
you give away when your magazine top 10 You have oh,
we're the best podcast in the universe and we could have a
lunch we could
have a lunch and then pick and just start giving these awards
out. But we already given the you know, you have the
knighthood thing, which is probably
more and we'll make we'll make and we'll make that guy night on
the spot. I don't know about that. Okay, there's something
that that we need to play a clip of. We've talked about Jeffrey
Epstein a lot on the show. And he has an island and it's known
that there's a lot of y'all Island, possibly possibly under
age girls there and he has his private plane
Oh Island, what's it called? pedo Island
pedo. Island? Well, his airplane is dubbed the Lolita Express.
And here's the thing with the Lolita Express. Jeffrey Epstein
has had Bill Clinton on that Lolita express a lot that
there's flight logs, that even without President Clinton's
Secret Service detail, Donald Trump has also been on the
Lolita express to pedo island. So has Alan Dershowitz has also
been on the Lolita Express, but and in 2008 exclusive club in
2008 is a hedge fund guy. Jet and he lives in Palm Beach.
Yeah, what Palm Beach, Florida? Yeah, he basically got off with
a slap on the wrist for being a sex offender and I have not
looked into the case and how that slap on the wrist kind of
took place. But now, many of these girls who at the time were
1415 years old are speaking out and the Miami Herald has done a
nice Expo say this is a piece from a video they published
along with it. The whole video is 12 minutes. I got a minute
and a half for you. I think you like it.
On June 30 2008 Jeffrey Epstein, a Palm Beach multimillionaire
hedge fund manager received what might have been the most lenient
plea deal for a serial sex offender in US history. The
Miami Herald identified over 60 of his victims, just young,
middle and high school girls at the time of the abuse. More than
a decade later, several of them are talking for the first time
about how they were molested by Epstein and believe they were
betrayed by the very prosecutors who are supposed to hold Epstein
accountable.
One child would be lured over would be paid substantial sums
of money would be offered the further inducement of being paid
a bounty for anybody else that she was able to bring to Epstein
a network developed where many young girls in the same kinds of
circumstance wound up being victimized.
By the time I was 16, I brought him up to 75 Girls, all the ages
of you know, 14 1516 people going from eighth grade to ninth
grade at just school parties is where I recruit them from
all Jeffrey cared about was go find me more girls, his appetite
was insatiable. He couldn't stop if he wanted new fresh young
faces every single day. The sheer
volume of girls the frequency sometimes several or many in the
same day, the age of the girls in some cases, there were
victims that didn't know each other had never met each other.
But they had a basically the same story. I remember
there was a staircase and it was like, kind of like a spiral
almost. And
she brings us up the stairs and it was like spiral stairs.
You walked into his bedroom around his bed it to almost a
like a very little Hall. And then it was another door. And
that's where everything would happen was in his bathroom. He
would have a dresser and it was filled with like the first door
was lotion. And then like the third draw down was like sex
toys.
And it just goes on from there. Yeah, really is. I mean hundreds
of girls, hundreds they have lists of hundreds of girls. If
you read the story, these were these were girls who were mainly
they got 200 bucks, but these girls were their parents were in
trailer park. They live in trailer parks that their parents
were on drugs. They were some of them were just homeless. They
were taken advantage of by this guy in Most of this is
that this guy was a mate this guy was you had to say 75 or
hundreds. I mean, what what is the point? On his what I'm
asking, What do you think his point is? And what's his point?
Is he bored or is easily bored? He has seven, he can screw the
same girl twice. I mean, it doesn't make any sense. Normal
PERSON No,
but clearly he's ill and needs to be locked up in an
institution and give him one of those. Those fancy lobotomies we
do these days with the ultrasound
or hedge fund manager I don't know same thing
I find it very disturbing and how did this happen that he that
he just kind of skipped off with no no jail time or anything it's
the same thing as the pedophile rings that you're always moaning
about in Europe that apparently go right into the right up into
the judicial
Yeah, and you'll be you'll be pleased to know that as former
detective who just published a book called The Lost Boys of
bird island a shocking expose a from within the heart of the NP
government on his NP stand for where the hell was this so
anyway, he was here's the here's the headline, publish his book
exposing high level government pedophile ring shot in the head
days later. Oh, I hate it when that happens. Suicide. Yeah. See
just what what is Bert I do want to see what what government was
this I think control room and help me out. I can't see it now.
P and P Yeah.
I have no idea. Hmm. Well, let's do a little
ads into South Africa.
Oh, wow. Yeah.
The book details the corruption within the last apartheid
government of South Africa and implicated officials all the way
to the top How high does it go? Including defense minister
Magnus Milan and the Minister of Environmental Affairs John
Wiley. Before his death, the author mini announced that he
was approached by many more people with even more damning
evidence which he plans to reveal in a sequel of the book.
However,
that's he died. Maybe he should have just shut up about the
sequel. Yeah. Well, that's what's happening in that first
book. That's what killed this guy.
Yeah. Yeah. That's what's happening to Well, not exactly
the same. But this Jerome Corsi guy who's now being hassled by
the Mueller team.
Is that stones, buddy? Yeah,
well, of course, he's been around. I've seen him on Alex
Jones in the past, although not recently, I haven't really been
watching but he do coast to coast. And he was a writer. He's
a, he's 72. He's a little older than and he's writing. I think
it just published a book about the deep state. Okay, let's get
that guy. Because Mueller is all over that. Maybe one day, it'll
all come out. And we'll really know what Mueller's role was
going back to being hired to was it just right before 911 then
Obama comes in? And well, you know, we need you to stay for an
extra two years Yeah, but you could there's a 10 year term
limit our will we'll figure that out. We'll just scrub something
over here make that work. He's so tied into everything and
everybody. Maybe one day we'll find out maybe
now the whole thing is corrupt. Yeah. It's corruption looks Yes.
So I'm surprised that I'm getting that we're even talking.
What? Asked me Yeah, why would you Why do I say such?
Why do you say this John?
Because my browser a all my if I tried to do anything, I could go
on Google to look up something which I've been trying to do
here. You got frozen or Bing, or any of them I get knows no, you
got no internet connection.
Reboot is what you always tell me.
That's what I would do. Reboot. Reboot. Can I have no internet
connection if I'm talking to you? Well,
that's clearly it's something with your browser which always
are you using? Brave?
No, I use brave on the other machine.
Here. Hold on. Let me help. Is it working? No.
I might try it.
Might you try that and meanwhile, I'm going to give you
an update the latest on the E scooters. And I do want to
reiterate I'm very much for the E scooter revolution.
The new balancing one they're pretty cool, though it
doesn't fall over.
Right doesn't fall over. It's got big giant tires. No, I have
Have a seat. That one's like a Segway on the front and back
wheels.
No, I have not seen that looks pretty cool. Yeah, well, it.
It's all cool as long as people drive in, not on the sidewalk,
and as long as they don't throw these things all over the place.
I mean, it's, it's, there's more of these out here on Second
Street downtown. They've got trees, and you know, they made a
nice little downtown area. There's more of these things
than trees. I mean, it overpowers the landscape. And
it's hurting people. So
in the past six or seven months, we've seen more than 100 cities
in the US get these rentable dockless motorized scooters, and
we're seeing a lot of accidents racked up in emergency rooms.
Over the past few weeks, I've been talking to doctors and
emergency rooms and several major cities. And they say
they're seeing the rate of these accidents happen anywhere from
maybe 10 a month to 10 a day. Well, I've heard all sorts of
stories. A lot of people they just kind of lose control the
scooter because they don't quite know what they're doing. Other
incidents I've heard is that people's brakes haven't worked.
I've also heard incidents where they push on the throttle and
the scooter just keeps going.
Yeah, well hold on. That's the desired result, push on the
throttle. And it just keeps on going. I don't know who you talk
to. I heard
incidents where they push on the throttle and the scooter just
keeps going. A lot of doctors are saying most of the injuries
they see coming in are people without helmets. A lot of people
are renting the scooters or tourists. They're not traveling
with helmets or people just going about their day to day
lives. They're not carrying around the helmet. And this is
contributing to a lot of head injuries. That's part of the
problem with the scooters, there's different laws in
different states, different cities, so people don't really
know what the rules are. Some states require helmets, some
don't. In California, it used to be the law that everyone had to
wear a helmet. But one of the scooter companies birds back to
Bill to get that helmet requirement taken out. And so
starting January, people won't have to wear helmets in
California. So when you sign up to rent one of these scooters,
you have to click through agreements in the app. And
basically those agreements are taking on full responsibility
for what happens with that scooter. So it absolves the
sooner scooter companies have any responsibility or liability.
So if you get hurt, it's your fault, not the company.
That's the part I like the best. It's the old EULA trick. So when
you go up to the scooter you want to ride then you know you
have to have the app and then you you say okay, I'm gonna, I
haven't signed off you sign off, you sign off on everything. Even
if the thing is defective. Either blows up right on here,
which I'm waiting for. Yeah, they know
the old EULA trick. Yeah. So it's got it gets when it goes,
some judge have some balls and throw that whole thing out.
Unless you can prove someone reread it. And if there's any
option, so I buy some software. And I buy already paid my money
to pay my money for the software. And I'm going to not,
I don't like this EULA. So I say no, I don't accept it. The
software won't work.
No, that's correct. In many cases, yeah. You can't get any
further. It'll say great. You just can't use the software.
Correct.
What about my money? Yeah,
no, I know. And, you know, there's another issue in that
regard. And it's something Apple is doing. And there's lawsuits.
I think even a class action lawsuit is they do all kinds of
tricks to not let you repair your Apple products outside of
official official Apple channels, which is kind of it's
another side of that coin is like hey, I bought this I own
this. I should be able to do whatever I want with it.
Certainly if something's broken, I should be able to go to
someone who can repair it, but they make that impossible. You
know, if you try to if you try to open this then that gets
disabled like booby trap basically. And there's what is
it right of first ownership or there's some some basic law that
says you should have the right to repair your device?
Yeah, you should. Well, I bought it Yeah, that's unfortunately
that's not how it works. But everybody in Congress is a
lawyer so that's why we get stuff like this. I tell you so I
was taking my dry cleaning to a Cathy's on the third and and
right there in front of the group blue grocer is that's
where a lot of homeless guys hang out. Now, I used to give
money right we talked about this I don't do it anymore. No, no,
no, no, because the same guy I give money to is still there and
he lies to me, so I'm gonna get some shoes. He didn't get any
shoes. It doesn't matter. I'm done. on with it. I don't do it
anymore. Not in Austin, at least you're fed up and I'll tell you
why I was very happy about it because so I'm walking. I see a
guy coming towards me kind of you can see he's transient. I
don't think homeless would be the right description. But
transient. He stopped someone in front of me. They didn't shake
their head and he stops me. I said, No. So I do my business. I
walk around the block. And then he comes from the other
direction. He's coming at me again, is tracking Yeah. And of
course, he again asked me I said, No, you just asked me
know. 30 seconds later, he whizzes by me on an E scooter.
Meaning the guy has a smartphone a means of payment. Are you
kidding me Austin? is whipping by
so long sucker?
That's pretty. That's pretty much it. Definitely.
Oh, this is not going to help. So
let's see there was a
just a quick hit on Australia. Let's put a little story about
barely got a lot of fire and floods going on nearby probably
because of global warming. The people
of Australia grapple today with extreme fire and extreme
rainfall. Sydney was inundated with a month's worth of rain. In
a single morning, the deluge flooded homes and streets and
claimed at least one life.
We've had storm events before and New South Wales with that
storm events in Sydney before but not this widespread not over
this continuing period of time. We've had in excess of 100
millimetres of rain already in some areas of Sydney. But one of
the things were happening is that the rain is in flooding
different areas at different times.
Meanwhile, in northeastern Australia, firefighters in
Queensland State battled an unprecedented 138 fires as
temperatures soar to 104 degrees. Authority said the fire
danger has gone to catastrophic. That is the worst on their
scale.
I didn't hear global warming in the report. You may know what's
wrong. That's wrong. That's just wrong.
So I've been working on my Australian accent. Want to hear
it? Sure. stike and shrimp. It's as far as I've gotten.
John at Devora uk.org is where you can send your official
pronunciation send him please send them lots of audio files of
telling him how to pronounce steak and shrimp dikes.
Zuckerberg was invited to the UK to testify in front of
government there. He was a no show he sent his I guess the
local NGO? He sent the look? Well, that's a good question.
Here is a quick exchange between his his proxy from double
his body double who would know the difference.
If ever, if ever a good reason to have a bot in the simulation,
it will be that guy. Now. I sent his local VP.
You said earlier on that you you apologize for the decision for
Mark Zuckerberg not appearing here. You took responsibility
for that. How do you think that looks as a member of this
Parliament?
Not not great. I guess is the answer.
I could just see the call he's getting from Zuckerberg. What
did you say? What about the lines we rehearsed? But what was
this about? It seems that the UK Parliament has some info we
don't have like another problem for Facebook, the UK Parliament
getting a hold of internal Facebook documents what's in
them.
So Tyler ahead of the panel questioning of Facebook BP
tomorrow on fake news and disinformation. British
Parliament has obtained internal Facebook documents from an app
developer, this developer sued Facebook alleging its data
policies were anti competitive. We don't know what's in these
documents yet. And Facebook has fought to keep them private
because they may include emails between senior executives in
California state court ordered to keep them under seal but the
chairman of the House of Commons committee which secure the
documents says they can choose to publish them if they like so
of course we'll have to see what happens if they do choose to
publish them. But no matter what Tyler is just yet another
headache for Facebook. All right.
Yeah. And the headaches just keep on coming. Zuckerberg.
Yeah, go ahead.
Well, I've been watching this and since I'm not a Facebook
user, neither I I think it can be pretty objective. I think
they're finally I think they're fine after they looked at the
numbers. Yeah, Facebook, this Facebook that Facebook is eating
the media's lunch there. $40 billion is going to Facebook.
That should be According to the media, yeah. And they finally
figured out that Facebook is not their friend.
Yes. Yes. In fact, I have a clip here from Canada Navia, the CBC
Scandinavian radio, this guy actually has it figured out and
he can't believe that the Scandinavian broadcasting also
don't just see what is happening to them.
Why does CBC trust Facebook? Why does every outlet on CBC tell
its listeners to go like them on Facebook, not just CBC but
other journalistic entities as well, but we're CBC
so I'm not I don't care about the other journalist entities.
Why did the people at CBC mandate but CBC personnel
promote Facebook? Why does CBC continue to engage in commercial
relationships with Facebook? Now it's clear to us that Facebook
is a threat to democracy and Cbc as a public broadcaster should
be strengthening democracy. So I would like to hear from the
senior manager so this corporation which I do not work
for very clearly and further, every time I've appeared on this
show to talk about Facebook Facebook has complained to CBC
and CBC has not defended me or it's not defended our right to
have these conversations although Metro Morning Lister
having yeah right and that to me, it is the hypocrisy of our
reporting on Facebook that we talk about it but as a company
we do nothing Jesse Thank you. Hopefully I'll come back but if
not, thanks, everybody. Jesse Hirsch
to college you call it miss don't miss your morning. Jesse
at the anxious had like me on Facebook. That would have been
fun. But that's a point that as well. May I mean, they do it on
all these networks like us on Facebook Like us on why Yeah,
why should they like you on Facebook? I mean, you're in
these these media companies are stupid. They've always been
stupid. This is I'm gonna bring back a story that's, you know, a
lot of listeners and I've heard a couple of times I'll tell it
again, you were there. When Craig Newmark was telling you
are what I'm sorry. When the Phil Bernstein was telling the
story back in the day when Craig Newmark the guy who did Cray, or
does Craig's List, walked into the chronicle that big newspaper
in San Francisco today. I've got this thing about doing
classifieds. I think we should team up. And we can do take take
the classified world over. And it was like the newspaper guys
said what do you know about anything get out out. And so
they lost the you know, they lost them their edge. But these
guys have always been that way. The newspapers have never been
predict their own demise because of the internet. They can't
figure out that advertising works differently on the
internet that it doesn't print. And it's so they're so they're
stupid when it comes to Facebook. And what's I think now
they're starting to beat up Facebook in an unwarranted
manner. Well, Zuckerberg, he has to go to the parliament. He's
got nothing to do with them. Tell him this sawed off, as they
would say sawed off? Well, there's more coming down the
pike for that. And I if I were mainstream, I'd be making a big
deal out of this. The Department of Justice, this week unsealed
charges against eight individuals in AI, they're
saying one of the largest digital advertising frauds runs
in the billions. Looks like it's a lot of Russian names here. So
I don't even know where these guys are. But the department
unsealed all this they had. They had a federal court seal. I
don't know why. They had seizure warrants. FBI took over 31
domains, 89 servers botnets the whole thing and was very
sophisticated. And they had 1900 or servers that were just
replicating people, you know, Oh, yeah. Doing the mouse. This
is a big deal in business. Yeah. So finally, this is now out.
This is where you want to go after the jogger. Yeah, you want
to go for the jugular going on for over a decade. And we've
been talking about it. Of course. Yeah, so now, we have
here this there's all kinds of stories coming out about this
now to hear to international cyber criminal rings dismantled
and eight defendants indicted for causing billions of dollars
in losses in digital advertising fraud. Finally, finally,
someone's going to figure out how phony it really is. Also
face bag with their 2 billion served, how can you have 2
billion How can you still say we serve 2 billion people when you
deleted 500 million? I mean, come on the Can someone please
just do this arithmetic. And Billy and the last thing for
Zuck? You know, this New York Times report which no one talks
about where you know, there were some anti semitism going on,
which they did on purpose, you know, hey, let's let's get these
anti semitic conspiracy theories about George Soros out there.
Well, that does not sit well with the hospital. San Francisco
General Hospital, which was done that was a whole hospital named
after Zuckerberg. Where we He gave $75 million to the
hospitals foundation
called Zuckerberg. General Motors. Yeah. Well, they're
going to take big donors to San Francisco to hospitals him and
our Salesforce guy.
Benioff. Yeah. Well, they're taking his name off. For that
for the, for the Jew thing. Yeah. Yeah. A Listen, I'll read
it to you on Tuesday, San Francisco supervisor Aaron
Peskin reportedly reportedly proposed the city remove
Zuckerberg name from San Francisco General Hospital
proposal, which was renamed it it's not normal for private he
says it's not normal for private entities to use information to
spread in this case, anti semitic conspiracy theories on
platforms they control. Believe me, John, when you do this,
especially Zuckerberg as a Jew, he's the worst kind of Jew you
can be.
No, da okay. No, I'm not saying he's not the worst kind of Juha
one way or the other maybe is maybe isn't I don't care.
They're not taking his name off that hospital. All right. Too
much money is involved.
I'm sure Benioff would be fine just jumping in just to mess
with the guy or someone else got
his own thing is this the other system that he's he's in a
different hospital system. He's given money to them and UCSF or
something like that. Any offices, Benioff that Zuckerberg
is gonna now there's no way
well, he's out there saying it. So
you know, this city council, the San Francisco a bunch of douche
bags, they say stuff just to get attention.
You know, I don't have any clips or anything I could, but we
haven't talked about it much this CRISPR saying this gene
editing. Oh, I have the clip. Fantastic. I can
see apparently he's got another person already to go. I need to
export to
a Chinese scientist who says he engineered the first genetically
edited babies now says another pregnancy is underway. Her Zhang
Quay made the announcement today at an international conference
in Hong Kong. There has been no independent confirmation of his
claims. But scientists have condemned his experiments. Do
you
think this is really true that he's really been successful?
This
could be a fake. You know, there's been a lot of medical
fraud and
a lot of people a lot of people are really into this CRISPR
thing. This gene editing. Well, we'll
see what happens. Oh, here comes the baby. No. Oh, it's a girl.
Born talking. Just the gene switch. I got to meet the first
clone dog years ago. Really? Yeah, it was in Korea. That's
what started it. Yeah. I met him I forget the name of this dog
was big. I can't remember what kind of dog was big dog. Nice,
nice guy. Seemed like a regular dog to me. Could be fake. But I
think it was the real thing. cloned dog came out on stage.
Everybody got to pet him?
It was very funny piece from John Bolton, who I still
understand why he's why he's in this. Why isn't government at
all I do not like this guy?
Oh, he's got the goods on somebody. Yes.
I don't know how he did it. But anyway, he pretty much gave me
now 100% assurance, there is no tape of Khashoggi she's shocked.
She's murder. There is no tape of it. And he's going to try and
weasel out of it. But it really just strengthens my thought that
there's no tape. I
mean, take the question of the tape first. No, I haven't
listened to it. And I guess I should ask you. Why do you think
I should? What do you think I'll learn from it? Well, you're the
National Security Adviser, you might have access
to that sort of intelligence. Am I
in this room? speak Arabic? You want me to listen to it? What am
I going to learn from me? And if they were speaking Korean, I
wouldn't learn any more from it either. Be able to tell you. I
could read a transcript.
So you don't think it's important to national security?
I'm just
trying to make the point that everybody who says Why don't you
listen to the tape unless you speak Arabic? What are you going
to get from it? The President the President has spoken to our
position on this issue. He's spoken very clearly. And that is
our position.
Yeah, there's no tape. And of course we want to hear that but
they're all too chickenshit to say we want to hear the
murderer. That's what we want to hear. We don't care what
language is in we want to hear. We want to saw going was a bone
saw, we want to hear the guy going. You know, and come on. If
this tape existed, surely someone would have it by now.
But no, there's a transcript we just say as a tape. Here's the
transcript. It's the oldest trick
I'm not gonna argue you might be right. There may be the whole
thing could be something of a hoax. And what did they have the
tape for in the first place that's supposed to have a video
to they said at the beginning if you remember Yeah, we want to
see the Was this to see the video we don't want to see the
tape. Well now that it's just video, it's just
gone off into the annals of truth. truthiness. John, it'll
now forever be that way. There was a tape and there was a
buzzsaw and they killed him and, and there was video and don't
worry about it. That's just what happened. Now there's a little
extra meme to all of this. And it's mind boggling. Whereas two
years ago, even before you know, before the election, we know
that there was collusion, we had lots of collusion, any collusion
between the Russians and Trump, and it's because Trump is under
control by Putin. And he has all these financial and business
ties. He just boasted about how much money he makes. And, and
you know, then so that's why he's always been acting in
Russia's best interest because of his own personal interests
and financial and business interest in Russia. And now,
although we have never heard it before, really to this degree,
it's time to draw out the same script for KSA. Being the
Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Here's Adam Schiff. He is now the chair
of the Intelligence Committee,
one of the things that you want to probe is the President's
relationship with Saudi Arabia, you told The Washington Post,
you have an idea that the President is going easy on Saudi
Arabia, because of his business interests, and that you want to
look into that. Do you have any evidence to support that going
in?
Well, look, the President is not being honest with the country
about the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. There's a thing
there's a two part he feels that by saying that we don't know or
that the world is a dangerous place, or everybody does, and he
thinks it makes him look strong and actually makes him look
weak. It means that our allies don't respect us, our enemies
don't fear us. What is driving this? I don't know whether this
is simply an affinity that he has for autocrats. He seems to
choose them repeatedly over his own intelligence agencies, or
whether there's a financial motivation. That is his own
personal finances. We do know, of course, he has openly bragged
about how many millions he makes from Saudi Arabia. Is his
personal financial interest driving us policy in the Gulf?
Is it driving us policy visa vie the Russians? We don't know. But
it would be irresponsible not to find out.
And how far are you going to dig on that?
Well, this will not be the work alone of the Intelligence
Committee. It'll be our responsibility to make sure that
we're getting good intelligence on not just the murder of Jamal
Khashoggi, but also Saudi policy, these will be gutter in
Yemen, and that the Congress is informed that we can make good
policy decisions that we can truth help if the President was
just representing the matter to the American people. So that
we're we have a foreign policy that is driven by American
interests, not by some interests of the President. So that will
be our responsibility. I think others will also have the
responsibility of looking at our their financial entanglements
with the Gulf. Are there financial inducements that the
President has not to want to cross the Saudis that cannot be
allowed to drive us policy?
Okay, a couple of things here first of all, what the hell is
this we're going to truth tell this is new for me. So we will
be able to truth tell the public about it. i Is that short for
telling the truth.
I don't know why we use that term.
I've never heard of it. Okay.
And then the other thing guys that lizard so you never know
what's going to come out of his mouth
but you know, the the American public voted before majority in
the House of Representatives which is great that Okay, so now
go do stuff that means the President doesn't make laws and
doesn't Yeah, he can he said international treaties, but you
ultimately you're in charge just go make the policy you want to
make and so I can't be the only one who's tired of this
investigating everything. And the same goes for the
Republicans tiring. Can't believe I'm saying it.
But you're saying it better believe it Yeah, it's just come
on man. Just more truth telling you the better.
Um, truth telling you right now, bro. truth telling you. truth
telling y'all. I got a funny one here. chunk. We haven't talked
about chunk in a long time. Chunk was on with seltzer water
boy. Yeah. Brian Stelter on whatever's media show is and
he's talking about AOC and he says something really
appropriate which fries, seltzer waters brain? I mean, and it's
just me I was like, You guys are you guys are the problem, and
I'll play it until we're tired of hearing him. But what I found
interesting was how seltzer water pronounces his name. Now
it's C, E and K. And we always say chunk What is it? What is it
really Cenk? Shank? Shank I
think ooh, gar.
Yeah, let's listen to a seltzer.
So drank drank as Trump is to Twitter. So drank, drank,
drank a drink, drank
drank as Trump is to Twitter is Ocasio Cortez to Instagram? Is
that one of the lessons here? She's using a new platform and a
new way? Well, I
mean, look at you can say that Trump was untethered from the
donors in a sense as well, because he didn't raise enough
money from them. And so hence, he was able to speak out more
vociferously on social media, Ocasio Cortez on those on the
left, but I gotta say one thing, in her defense for what you just
mentioned, Brian, like you say, she doesn't do enough interviews
on television now. But let's be fair, when she needed those
interviews, you guys weren't there for her. So before the
election, almost intermediate, but our job isn't? No, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no. But Brian, it isn't about being there. Or
being or not, it's about you guys didn't think she had a
chance. So you didn't give her any outlet at all. And so the
people in her district didn't get a real sense of, of, you
know, who had the better point of view, she overcame that
anyway, and went on to win. So if you think, hey, well, she's
got to go on television to speak to the people. Apparently she
didn't. She had to go on The Young Turks and social media to
speak to the people. And she did and she won. So she doesn't owe
television, anything. She doesn't know the corporate
Democrats, anything. She doesn't know Republicans anything. So
she can go on and make her case anywhere she likes. And it's
incredibly effective.
I think the guy's making a very good point. And I and I agree
that I've always said, watch out for AOC. Ma'am, you don't have
to be smart. And I think lots of people would agree with me that
to be to be president, even. She is the better
elected official. She certainly owes the media, the public. Her
voice and
you hear this, this is this is gonna be very interesting to
watch. Now they're all offended what she owes, she owes the
media. I was there any questions
I can take your point about that her not getting enough attention
before she won. But I don't think that's particularly
unusual for somebody running for Congress. She's not running for
president, I think then it would be a story.
Sorry, jank. Real quick.
I look, I think that unfortunately, I stopped
stop. This is where a chunk should say, well, that's a great
argument is that you guys also didn't cover Bernie Sanders very
well, we get the same crowds that Trump was getting. Yes. And
saying crazy stuff that is different than Trump, who's from
the other side, but he had huge audiences and deserve some
coverage. You guys didn't cover him at all in favor of Hillary?
That?
No, of course, not how he goes, I don't know, he goes into this
thing about because, well, I'll play his argument. But you're so
right. And if only Bernie had understood how to use Twitter,
effectively, he could have killed it. Yeah, he's not in his
DNA. He doesn't understand. But this is they are, they're really
kind of like, What are you saying? You can't be a
politician without the media. That's pretty much what chunk
Trank jank is drank jank is saying, and I think he's right
that you don't need it. But these people, they're not happy.
Now his reason for it, and you'll hear now is kind of not
running
for president, I think then it would be a different story.
Sorry, jank. Just real quick.
I look, I think that unfortunately, the media covers
people with more money. And a lot of that is corporate money.
And so it's not just about Ocasio Cortez, it's about the
future. And in 2020, will you cover progressive candidates
that run uncorrupted? And my guess is no. And then you'll
turn around and sometimes blame
progressive candidates and conservative candidates. We
should cover them and make sure people know about both of them.
But I absolutely,
absolutely. But unfortunately, you give an advantage to people
with more money and you do it all the time. And unfortunately,
I think it aids in events corruption.
I would love to discuss that more in the future. I'm not sure
how we have more donor money. That's your argument that
because they have more donor money, they get more coverage.
This
idiot doesn't even understand how it works. And he's in the
middle of he does the media show what you're saying people will
raise a lot of money to get more attention. No.
Brian, are you saying that not everybody in the media says
well, that person has a better chance of winning because they
have more money. So there's this obsession with who's raised more
money and has more legitimate that's in the mainstream media
which is not held in actual elections. Yeah. Interesting.
Thank thanks so much for being here.
Drank interesting chunk. Great drink. Thank you very much. It's
great. Thanks for being here. Dick never getting on again. My
show. Tell me about that. You
write about that?
Tell me how it mean. You were mean? Yeah,
he's not gonna get on there. Again. You can't go on the media
and accuse them of all these things. You got to cozy up to
him.
You He's always gonna be honest. He's in a state of dissonance
all the time Cenk drank jank and because this is he has good
thoughts I mean that's not that's very much the way I think
about things which of course makes it good
that's just a media thought it's just like the realism of being
realistic
right? But then you know, he forgets to point out the Bernie
Sanders doesn't know anything
about the media for some reason to an immediate shift is doing
the media show that's the great irony of that work.
I'm gonna show my mood by donating to no agenda Imagine
all the people who could do that oh yeah, that'd be fun
Well, we do a few people to thank for show 1090 Starting
with Sir Hank Scorpio and get to new Quebec when 5329 and it was
made in Canadian dollar he may be
Oh, was that that might have been 200, deckhand. Navion two
balloons, they could be 153 29 Let me see.
Move them up to us.
Three Canadian in US dollars. Let's see. Oh, there'll be the
other way the other way around actually. US dollars in Canadian
Okay, come on Google. You can do it. Oh, that didn't work.
doesn't even work doesn't even work.
I've read his donation note assuming that this is the case.
Okay. Just tonight is in need of some serious jobs karma. For the
past five years, I've been competing in apprenticeship to
become a power lineman tech. Over the last five years I've
traveled all across the province of Ontario working and no agenda
has been there keeping me entertained and informed for the
ride. Now that I'm qualified, I will be given full time
placement somewhere in Ontario. It's a big province so I asked
for some tried and true and a jobs karma placement karma
anywhere close to Ottawa will do nicely. Yeah, I think the goat
may be able to help out on this one as well. I think you could
work him in there at some point, Adam, thank you for your
courage, sir. Hank Scorpio.
Yes. $153 is $203 Scandanavian we actually won on the deal.
Kind of I'm not sure yeah, he moves up to executive producer
ship Associate Executive Producer ship as as should be.
And of course we get play whenever you request jobs,
jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs.
To do the trick, yep. Thank you very much does. Brian mine in
Burlington, Wisconsin went 26 He's got 50 birthday thing the
douching is what he's needing here.
You've been de doop. Shani says face back free since March and
loving it. Thanks.
Then you get some teasers at TSA tips work with Richard force in
Zook Switzerland, which is now Krypto Valley $109. He requests
no valet he
requested that I just threw it in
nonnamous California $109 He sent a note in that is touching
because it's like a problematic situation that he lives with. In
now.
He's going to be he's going to he's going to be invited today.
He's going to be knighted.
Yeah, he's going to be knighted and he's got a birthday for his
wife
what's going on? What's problematic what how can we help
the doctor isn't what's going on?
It was something we can't do anything about oh, I don't think
she goes on and says he's been twice a week you know he likes
to show he doesn't like to listen to the mainstream media
along with the daily meditation practice which has been
remarkably beneficial in managing the size of my amygdala
make delay because he has to anticipate a holiday expensive
would not allow me to send any more funds your way this year
but it appears the donation I secure my knighthood even though
I thought it was assured years ago when I sent one Bitcoin as a
donation to the daily source code in hopes that Adam may
consider a crypto donation okay goes on about that. I know it's
early but I'd like to give my smoke smokin hot wife Pamela
birthday call out when she hits her next milestone on December
11. Alas, her amygdalae are under constant stress since her
face bag news feed is overwhelmed with Trump hatred.
So She despises the no agenda show off whenever she is in
range of the sound of the podcast. Oh, the only way I
might persuade her to listen to an entire show would be to honor
her in this way. So I hope she appreciates the gesture. Well, I
think that No,
I think that's probably that may be problematic. Is this his wife
or girlfriend? Wife?
I truly appreciate what you two are doing and there's no one
else in the media seems to exercise critical thinking,
leaving the rest of us under constant assault from all sides
by screaming morons, telling us how to speak, think and act to
avoid offending anyone, no matter how much they themselves
may offend me. Thankfully, I have a thicker hide than most of
them do, it can obviously take quite a bit more than abuse,
without even a sniffle from my bruised ego here. So the diamond
is pretty
duck 70 threes, the doctor resume, here's what I would
recommend. If you're going to let her hear anything, this is
the Siri here's how I do it. First, you take a snippet of the
birthday segment. And maybe this segment, edit out everything
that we just said, we like Barber, all that stuff, get it
up, then edit in the birthday wish, which is pretty
straightforward. And then say Darling, you can call a darling
sweetheart Honeybun. I think that we both would really
benefit have already seen this myself. If we just didn't go on
Facebook for a while. Let's do it together. Let's just do it
together. And let's just see if we feel any different after say
a month. And if we feel a little better than we'll go for another
month. And then around month three, then you start slipping
in the best podcast in the universe. And this episode too,
by the way, so she'll remember. Oh, yeah, that's right. It may
work. But I would not just say hey, listen to the show. It's
great. Happy birthday.
Trey flowers. That's my Facebook is addicted.

the the ham developments I try. There's a new digital mode,
which is ft eight and ft eight does something very amazing. It
takes very low power and very quickly is able to exchange
information with other stations and it can do this all over the
globe. It's done purely through propagation you know shit
bouncing off asteroids meteorites, the moon I don't
know what it's insane how well it works really phenomenal
because you can do this on very low power.
Do you need special licensing for this?
Well, interestingly you can you You can do it with a technician
license, I think there may be some people doing it on VHF UHF,
but HF is where all the action is. And yes, you will need your
license for that as well. But that you'd need a general
license in order to do that to get to these frequencies where
everyone is, but there's a new version of it already called JSA
call. And this allows you to do a whole bunch of incredibly cool
things. Besides just actually, instead of sending just your
callsign, you can send messages it does about 10 words per
minute, is the speed which considering you know, I'll give
you an example, five watts, you can get around the globe with
conditions being right. But even when conditions aren't that
great, it does very well. And just think of a light bulb, you
know, just how much energy is five watts really, it's not a
lot of energy. And, but what's also cool is you can relay stuff
and kind of auto answer. And suddenly I can send a message to
a station say relay this message to everyone near you hears it or
within your reach, which could be a much more powerful station,
you can have auto answer with certain information and you can
just, you know, basically text back and forth. So what I'd like
to do is I want to set up a no agenda ham network with this
system, because everyone can kind of participate if you if
you're a ham, you don't need necessarily need the huge
antenna but we can connect all of our rigs together and do some
relaying and, and rag chew together. You know, talk about
our gear array. Talk about our gear, I
am in the truck right now in the driveway. And I'm about to go in
and see the missus.
The YL the YL the young lady the while you know when
the apocalypse comes? Where are the guys who are going to save
the world? Right?
So be on the lookout for that. No agenda hands. We have a lot
of them. So I wanted to reboot that it's important that we will
keep our networks running. I agree. Are you going to join it?
Oh, yeah, absolutely. Yes, I wanted to get this out of the
way which was it looks like there was a six week cycle on
the money. Oh, event? Uh huh. That was a fail. And then they
had to backtrack and it became a huge nightmare. Nobody knows.
And we can't get any reporting on it or anything else. I do
remember when it happened. And this is the role you can play
this clip it pretty much explains what's next week cycle
before actually play it just for those who are new or may not
know what the six week cycle is. We have it on good authority
that the FBI in particular, possibly other government
agencies, but the FBI creates some havoc somewhere and saves
us from imminent death about every six weeks. And usually
it's some Patsy that they give a fake bombs to when they rent the
van for them given the fake detonator button. And as he
presses it, they swoop in and they've saved the day once again
and that keeps the budgets flowing. It happens every six
weeks. Let's see what happened in this cycle. We
are going to be in tonight here with a false alarm that should
look like the real thing at America's hospital, Walter Reed
National Military Medical Center just outside Washington DC. That
is where presidents of their checkups and wounded warriors
are treated. Today. police and first responders swarmed the
facility after someone apparently made a monumental
mistake. Here's David Martin.
It was just after 2pm This afternoon when SWAT teams
responded to reports of an active shooter at Walter Reed
Medical Center where American servicemen and women recover
from their wounds. It turned out to be just a drill gone wrong.
But no one told the patients and staff some of whom sheltered in
place. They just evacuated us out into a parking garage and
medical technician texted CBS News. estimating the number of
evacuees that between 80 and 90. Were being told it was a drill.
CBS texted back. We were told it's not a drill, he replied.
Among those who took shelter where an amputee and a veteran
suffering from traumatic brain injury. One of them told CBS
News patients were loaded into wheelchairs, some holding
crutches over their heads. Those who could walk were pushing the
wheelchairs. There was fear. Some guys grabbed baseball bats
or whatever there was defend themselves. From the Pentagon to
the FBI to local law enforcement, to Maryland,
Congressman Dutch Ruppersberger, who was there. Everyone thought
it was the real thing.
There were people
that were very concerned and upset and afraid. It's my
understanding that montgomery county police came and didn't
know about it. There were a lot of people that really had
serious issues.
The Navy, which runs Walter Reed later found out that one of the
Medical Center's subordinate commands, had been planning a
drill, and as part of the planning accidentally triggered
the alert. The Navy calls that an improper use of the morning,
Jeff
All right David Martin, thank
you very much.
Yes No six weeks cycle that's not even close. There's no FBI
involved. That's completely that's that's nothing to do with
it.
No, you look into the FBI is involved. Now just backed off
because this was a disaster now, do they still have to have their
name associated with it?
Do you think they still have to pay the crisis actors their per
diem?
I don't know what to do. I don't think they even put them in
place. I think the whole thing was just botched,
botched, botched. Been looking at the Democratic Republic of
Congo, as Ebola has sparked up again, what we're waiting for to
no agenda show is for the military to be sent over because
there's all kinds of groovy stuff we want to protect. And
it's not the Ebola patients. Congo
has begun the first ever trial to test the effectiveness and
safety of for experimental Ebola drugs. The World Health
Organization calls it a giant step toward finding a treatment
that will save lives. So far, the current outbreak in Congo,
there have been 365 confirmed Ebola cases, but 189 of those
patients
have died.
How does this work? I thought they had a they already did a
trial for Ebola data vaccine.
Hold on. Let's see. Let's see. We have the old
by the way, this number higher than the one that got all the
publicity just a few years ago,
let's I have an old clip from this is Sanjay Gupta on the
vaccine can again
non essential travelers no longer go to to West Africa.
They made so they talked about several different things,
including a question that comes up quite a bit with regard to
vaccines, or some sort of treatment for patients with
Ebola. And Dr. Frieden, who's the head of the CDC said, look,
he believes it's still a year away before something like
that's approved.
And this is 2014 this clip so they just gave up I just stopped
making the Oh, not no need to go five years, you still haven't
figured it out.
It doesn't mean things like that won't get used in an
experimental, more compassionate use standpoint. But the idea
about having a vaccine available for sort of for mass
vaccinations, that's just not going to be available. He thinks
for at least a year, so probably not during this particular
outbreak.
Oh, I'd like to know why the
what happened since the year went by Yeah, but it's just
2014 2015. Now we're in 2018. And there's nothing and nobody
talking about anything. What are you kidding me?
Here's Fauci from the St. Lucie. If it's the same date
Ouchy. That is the old Fauci. Yeah, this is the old next both.
That's Fauci also from 2014. And see what he says.
Finally, there was a story in The New York Times this week of
Mike Leventhal and, you know, New York Times, it must be true,
referred to it at the end of his report, that scientists had come
up with a vaccine a decade ago that was 100% effective in
stopping Ebola in monkeys. But because of the fact that the
disease then was so rare that there wasn't a market, there
wasn't an incentive to test it and to develop it. Question, is
there some way? First of all, do you think we could have had if
there had been a full speed effort 10 years ago? Could we
have had an Ebola vaccine by now? And secondly, is there some
way when there is so little market for it, that we can get
these things developed just in case we get into this kind of
situation? answer to both questions, certainly without
pharmaceutical backing, you're not going to get a vaccine
vaccine.
Didn't we give these guys money for this to something like
remember something? There was some funds made available,
but that was mostly for Zika Zika? Sure,
we could have well, that's when Ebola turned to Zika had
one now you can't predict because there's scientific
issues there. We may not scientifically be able to do
things. But what the government is doing now, through a program
called Bada, the biomedical Advanced Research Development
Authority is to be able to finance things where you can
stockpile. So the government is realizing that even if there
isn't the need out
lies, just lies. Just all lies. So this has been going on for 15
years
then. About 2004 Yeah,
so 15 years. Yeah, fish. 14. So it's not about Ebola. I just
don't believe it. It's just a lie.
And in the black trunks wane and over 3000 troops. Virus killer
from Nigeria.
See how we do in the Congo. troops are coming. Small heads
are coming now. That's always Zika
Oh, right. I keep mixing all these memes up. Let's play a
little kind of a throwaway clip I got here. This design
apparently they found a bunch of manuscripts from Malcolm X's
book, The Autobiography of Malcolm X very famous story that
was, I guess, edited quite a bit because Melk was a little more
mean spirited than they put him out to be Oh, okay. Yeah.
In one paragraph Haley softened the Malcolm's immoral White
Devil to read Fat Cat whites. It was further watered down why in
the published book to to face whites in another could write
for The Guardian, Malcolm said the American black man is
wasting his time straining to integrate, it can't be done.
That phrase also didn't make it into the book.
I think the question that scholars are going to ask is, Is
he helping shape the message? And, you know, was there
something that Haley had as an agenda? And I think it's
complicated. I think Malcolm X really shines through from the
first page I have no doubt that that is Malcolm X's story, and
it's a very American one.
Malcolm was often critical of Martin Luther King's approach to
racial progress. But in this 24 Page chapter titled The Negro
one of three that went on Publish, Malcolm uncannily
predicted America would one day elect an African American
president came here 2000.
Oh, in the year 2000.
Yeah, he was late. He was eight, but he's off by eight years.
Yeah. No doubt, of course. No doubt, no doubt, we can do that.
It was a big article in The New York Times that a lot of people
are talking about. And it's the it's a feature story. That's a
big deal. It's actually a New York Times Magazine, I'm sorry,
feature story. The insect apocalypse is here. What does it
mean? feeding us
insects?
No, this is what I was going to ask you. So it's a long story,
almost shaggy dog from the author him or herself about bugs
and gee, I used to have when I was riding my bike, I had to
keep my mouth closed. And I've noticed there's less bugs. I'm
not getting so many bugs. Any of this, of course, is due to
global warming, and I have to tell you that
it'd be more bugs with global warming.
But my question is, how can you be all worried about the bug
apocalypse? And then we want people to eat the rest that are
still here. Ah, you're right. Don't understand that flying the
oil. Very good job. Yes, fly in. Good. Taste like blue? Well, we
were right. Actually, I should say. One of our producers was
very right and bring the story to my attention initially. The
Boeing 700 737 Max aircraft, the crash the Lion Air. That seems
like we were spot on about what happened
this afternoon, we are all going to get an alert on our phone
that
that's not what you wanted to hear. This is what you wanted to
hear.
Investigators are revealing more findings into that deadly lion
air crash last month in Southeast Asia, I'm sure you
will remember it. A preliminary report found the plane was not
air worthy. Because there were technical problems reported on
previous flights, the pilots struggled with an automated anti
stalling system that repeatedly forced the plane's nose down.
But it's unclear why the pilots did not follow procedures to
disable the system to
characterize this as a roller coaster ride from hell would not
be an overstatement. But very simply what happened here was
there is a new system in the Boeing 737 Max, which is
different from the old Boeing 737 airplanes. It wasn't in the
old planes, it's in the new plane. And this new system was
put in because of some unique characteristics about the new
plane. Essentially what it is it's called the maneuvering
characteristics Augmentation System or M casts. And it's
designed to basically take control of the airplane away
from the pilot, a kind of little pilot, but not in what a pilot
to prevent the plane from stalling. And stalling is not
like your car stalling. It's when there's not enough air
traveling over the wings to create enough lift to keep the
plane in the air. So in this instance, very simply what
happened was the plane took off. Soon as they raise the flaps
this new system this M cast system kicked in. It thought
because of a probably a defective angle of attack
sensor, that the nose of the airplane was way up in the air
or higher than it was and it automatically pushed the nose of
the plane down. The pilot and co pilot were not trained on how to
react to this. If you believe Lion Air was not in the
operating manual. If you believe the Allied Pilots Association,
there was little or no information about this new
system. have disclosed to flight crews, including a lion
airplane. And so they were in a situation which was completely
new and tragic.
So now we're just waiting to see who's gonna get sued over this.
Because, well, dude, story I heard was that there was a bunch
of what's there, Southwest is a big 737 user. And the pilots had
had interaction with the max. So they never heard of this. There
was no, they never got to Malmo the first time they heard about
this whole system, and that you could flip it off completely,
which is what
was the procedure, the way it works in aviation, these
procedures are documented. And while these guys were
struggling, they were more than what they should have been
pulling out manuals and saying, Okay, here's the checklist if
this happens, and because you can't really think about all the
oh, let me try this. Now you go by the book and in the procedure
should have said pull the circuit breakers, and it would
have been fixed. But in fact, they had different instructions
based upon the the behavior of the previous version of the
aircraft.
The guys that were the pilots that we're talking about, just
we didn't know anything about this, until we saw this report
in this airplane. Now we look now we know Yeah, but for me, so
I doubt if this is going to happen again. Because everybody
because it's a horrible situation. Everybody knows that.
I think Boeing is gonna get sued, I
think so to remember they just brought their two years ago,
they brought their avionics in house. So the question is, can
they blame it still on some Indians? Are they going to blame
it on themselves,
they'll blame it on it,
I think I'm pretty sure they're gonna blame it on. And we've cut
all ties with that, with the company that we outsource to,
it'll never happen again, we're sorry. But it also
showing data, I mean, the 787 plane was so outsourced now.
Because they were thinking of this new vos a new world, we're
going to outsource everything because the global so they
outsource pretty much everything to the on the plane to the point
where the plane was late, by what two years, couldn't get the
thing to, you know, it was just a piece of crap because of the
all the outsourcing cost and more money than they would have
saved that just built the damn plane up in Everett.
But it's also it shows you technology is really going to
become a massive issue in our lives. And you're gonna see it
with people relying on technology to get you places. So
we're gonna see some big outages of Ubers. And that's going to
bring down entire cities for a day, we'll see, you know,
outages with Google for nest and your door and whatever else you
tie into it. This is really, it's bad. And people rely on
this SEO away. And, you know, one of the big industries on the
internet, I'd say, I don't know too much about it. But
recruitment has got to be a huge industry. I mean, these the
these job boards, a Monster Board. Oh, yeah, you're right.
So they've taken another step. And they're all jittery about it
to wait until you hear what's going on. And these guys,
there's so much to improve the hiring process. We're adding
some more technology, which I'm sure will get you the perfect
hire.
Hello, my name is Vera, and I'm a robot bent. What's your name?
Hi, my name is Jason bullying. This is Vera, a robot that does
job interviews,
what are the three top important tips for a salesperson,
she's done 10,000 of them in counting.
Congratulations, we chose you as one of the best candidates for
sales representative, what
looks like the future is already a reality. Hiring is undergoing
a revolution. Almost all Fortune 500 companies now use some form
of automation. She keeps winking at me, and then rolling her eyes
at me. But many companies are also trying to look under the
hood of job applicants and assist them in completely new
ways. You're quantifying human behavior, human expressions,
human voices turning that into data.
We're now using artificial intelligence to help companies
find the very best talent.
And most likely you are being analyzed by an algorithm experts
called the proliferation of artificial intelligence, machine
learning and data science tools, the wild west of hiring critics,
and even some hiring managers themselves. They were concerned
about these tools potential for bias. They raise issues like
fairness, transparency, and accuracy.
So I can just see the HR departments going, Oh, this is
perfect. I can also never get blamed because the computer
hired that person so I can never have a shitty hire. I can Yes,
absolutely. This is exactly what I would do. Yeah, you got your
ass covered. Yep, it's what everybody else is doing. So it's
best Practice. Best key to success. Get out and get your
ass fired. Yeah. Yeah. So you do best practice and you have a
robot and then you blame the robot. That's fantastic. But
what's a
little more nefarious is what they're really doing. And yeah,
I looked into some of these companies about five of them now
already who are doing this. So you sit in front of your your
computer, laptop webcam, and this animated head is
interviewing you. But of course what it's really doing it and
that's why it does things like add winks, and does the it's
looking for your reaction. It's key. Imagine me with my
Tourette's? I mean, it would hang up in two seconds. Like,
I'm sorry, you're you're not a good candidate. We'll get rid of
you. My head shaking all over the place.
doesn't do that much. No, that's, you know, shake. Okay.
Well, you do I mean, I wouldn't do it. But you can keep from
shaking. I know that.
But then if I was doing that, during job interview, I'd be
like working really hard not to twitch and then they'd be like,
oh, man, that guy's too uptight. We can't hire it. Well, there's
that element. I would never win. But this is the professor Teddy
K is laughing his ass off, I'm sure. Let's just rely more on
more technology. That'll be great. Oh, and while you're at
it, finally the veil was lifted on what Amazon is going to do in
healthcare. Amazon is
one more punch line to your last comment. Okay. Let's rely on
technology even more and more and more. And then let's shut
down the nuclear devices in France, so there's no
electricity. Yeah, you might want to work like a plan.
You need some work on that as a punch line.
Yeah, well,
I blew it up. Amazon is now selling software that searches
patient's medical records for information that could help
doctors and hospitals. That's according to the Wall Street
Journal. The Journals parent company and Fox News parent
company share common ownership on the searches. Not
surprisingly, critics say they're worried about possible
privacy issues. The Fox Business network's Gerri Willis reporting
live from the floor of the New York Stock Exchange.
Hi, Shep. That's right. So big market opportunity here. Imagine
80% of hospitals in America, they are digitizing their
records, or they have already compared to 10% 10 years ago. So
big opportunity there. According to some market players. That's a
$7 billion marketplace. already. We see Google we see Apple
getting into healthcare, that represents a $3.2 trillion
opportunity. And as you know, healthcare is only growing only
getting bigger as the population in this country ages. I want to
talk a little bit about privacy because that's obviously a very
big concern. Amazon, of course, a company that knows what you're
doing at home, because of its Alexa apps, knows where you shop
because of amazon.com, its retail operation. But what we're
hearing from Amazon itself is that Amazon Web Services will
not be able to access this information, it will be
encrypted, the algorithms will encrypt the details. And
the algorithms will encrypt the details. Glad to hear that
the algorithms will encrypt the details. And people will only be
able to get at that information by having a key that allows them
to unlock it. But as you and Matt could imagine, this is very
difficult information to put on software, because it's very
technical batteries have their own code for describing some of
this stuff. And they are regulated here by HIPAA, which
is a long time law in this country that protects people's
privacy. So that's what we're hearing from Amazon this
afternoon shipped back to you, right. So
Amazon, of course has already figured out even a recent
article in motherboard states that people who buy smart
speakers, or as we like to say on the show, talking tubes have
pretty much given up on privacy, like I know, but I liked the
benefit of it. This is what added a fit of turning the
lights on with your voice. This is what Amazon's strategy is
because I came across another article, another service
actually called AWS ground station. And now I'm starting to
see what they're really getting into AWS ground station. So it's
Amazon Web Services, your Tom Yes, they are collecting all
data that is transmitted from cube sats, pocket cube, Sun
cubes, Eleos, medium Earth orbit, geostationary orbit
satellites, anything they can get their hands on, they are
downloading that into AWS ground station, and in make high net
and while they're making it available with a streaming to
capture process and store to process for image analysis to
build and train different kinds of models, analytics, reporting
storage. And I think that if you wanted to have like I wanted to
have some process that alerts me to a specific type of event in
the world that is sad that satellite data could help me
with like, I don't know, a hurricane I'll just make some
money. And then he could You could set up alerts. And he
could do all kinds of different things with this. And I think
that's kind of their strategy moving forward, which feels a
lot better than what Google is doing. Because these guys do
charge for everything they do. They're going to have all this
health data and they'll say, Well, I look good, you know, can
be very beneficial. These companies are working on things
and just integrate Oh, you know what, once you upload your
23andme data, and we've got this we've got your your health
record. And if we just say it's okay, I'll unlock it will
anonymize it, don't worry, you're there's no problem, just
trust us. And this is their business their business is is,
is, I think it's gonna be much bigger than their shopping
business. They are making available just ways to parse
through any kind of data that you would want, but really
targeted segments, which I think actually are useful. Is it a
good idea that Amazon has it all? No, truly Evil Corp. But
the strategy I think is phenomenally smart.
Who needs it? Not well.
No one needs it. But people get convinced and they get shoot. 10
years ago, we were all 10. Look, listen, hear me now believe me
later. 10 years ago, we were talking about how eventually
you'd have GPS trackers in your car, it will be tied into
insurance. And you will be able to do without it for a while
until they mandate it. And the same is going to be for health
trackers on your wrist. You just won't be able to get insurance
if you don't do it. We talked about this for a decade, and now
it's coming to fruition. It's a beautiful thing. Our baby is
being born John. appreciate the beauty of the gift.
Doesn't do appreciate Okay, well, thanks for that depressing
news. Let's see. Do I have I guess something that's upbeat.
Okay. Do you think about ice cider now? I'm interested in
getting some some what? Ice cider ice cider? No. I cider.
Canadians make the best ice cider
sales in the US have increased nearly 500% since 2011. And the
number of cideries has grown more than four times from 187 to
821. Cider
product relies on winters natural cold to turn it into
liquid gold.
And now the country's largest cider maker wants to take a bite
out of that market. Adriana Diaz traveled to Apple country to see
how this seasonal specialty is made.
Nestled in the Quebec countryside is a farm so
picturesque, it looks like a living postcard. Horses graze in
the pasture, as their owner and his best friend roam the
grounds. But despite his tranquil surroundings, Christian
Bartow MUFE is no ordinary farmer. He's a disrupter
credited for reviving Canada's apple industry. It takes a
village they say, not to
become
he did it three decades ago, when he invented a cider, an
alcoholic apple drink akin to dessert wine. It takes advantage
of something Canada has in abundance. The cold,
no, I pick up all when there is minus 10 cents US in the apple.
Instead of picking apples in the fall. He waits until they freeze
in the winter. When the apple sugar peaks. He was inspired by
a popular drink called Ice Wine, which is made from frozen
grapes.
John, you've hit upon something very big here. This is an exit
strategy. This is I'm sure Millennials love this whole
idea. Oh, yeah. Hi, cider. Can you imagine? Curry Dvorak ice
cider? You know, we're like the two geezers who really know what
we're doing we can come up Yeah, because your apple experts yes,
we're Apple experts. We understand everything about
apples about wine. We understand that and I think the millennials
would go crazy for this stuff.
I think they're already going crazy for it. Well,
let's look into white labeling some stuff. Okay. You can
contact us you can contact us out of mccurry.com John I'm
sorry joan@divorce.org And that is your deconstruction for today
everybody I'm gonna go back to driver update. Hell figure out
what's going on with the machine but hopefully everything will
work. Keep your backup recordings if you're listening
live on no agenda stream.com Just in case and we'll be back
on Sunday. Gaby coming to you from Chicago might have a travel
story or two you never know. Until then. Keep it real y'all

The Guardian ads in the UK claims
tall Paul secretly met with Assange at the Ecuadorian
Embassy.
Roger calls me three times we have three times we have a
discussion,
Manafort was going in there to get restaurant recommendations
for a great night out and
it's very dishonest. Corrupt is interesting. It depends on the
definition. Because Roger wanted to explain this tweet, that
tweet settles in,
to gauge what he's up to. Because to so many things for so
many years,
government is getting hand in hand with someone that
government also believes to be a liar and a criminal.
I haven't been a lobbyist in Washington 2520 years probably,
that I have no intention of going back to that. Manafort has
lied so many times throughout his career to perhaps he's lost
track of it that all these
coincidences just simply smell funny to Muller and his team you
better have betrayed the country or else someone owes you a big
apology. WikiLeaks dump this triangle is spinning very
