it rain down under and

5
00:00:16,410 --> 00:00:19,080
broadcasting live from
opportunity. So I'm 33 here in

00:00:19,080 --> 00:00:21,930
the frontier of Austin, Texas
capital of the drone Star State

7
00:00:21,930 --> 00:00:24,030
in the morning, everybody. I'm
Adam curry

8
00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:27,630
and from Northern Silicon Valley
where there'll be no record set

9
00:00:27,630 --> 00:00:30,750
today because we missed this
effort. I'm John C. Dvorak.

10
00:00:31,500 --> 00:00:33,000
Raglan Buzzkill.

11
00:00:35,250 --> 00:00:38,280
Got to be fair, the Zephyr was
just earlier than normal. We

12
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,050
didn't really miss anything.

13
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:43,470
Well, I saw go by

14
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:52,200
okay. But yeah, anyway. Ah, Gee.
I guess some stuff stuff

15
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:58,020
happened. So yeah. Thanks show
days is when it always takes

16
00:00:58,020 --> 00:01:04,770
place. But before we go into
Iran. I do want to make mention

17
00:01:04,770 --> 00:01:08,820
that Thursday by a request from
Sir Chris Wilson in Australia,

18
00:01:08,820 --> 00:01:12,060
we were requested to give yet
another massive shake of our

19
00:01:12,060 --> 00:01:18,990
rain sticks which are precision
instruments. These are not just

20
00:01:18,990 --> 00:01:22,080
some phoney baloney tourist
thing. These were made by Sherry

21
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,320
Osborne in Utah, and they work
conditions have

22
00:01:25,320 --> 00:01:29,160
eased on the far south coast of
New South Wales after fire

23
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,880
threatened the town of Eden.
live now to our reporter Trudy

24
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,540
McIntosh, Reese and Aiden Trudy,
take us through what's happened.

25
00:01:36,780 --> 00:01:39,750
For Anna we're starting to see a
sprinkling of rain here in the

26
00:01:39,750 --> 00:01:42,360
town of Eden. But as you can see
behind me there's certainly

27
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:46,170
still plenty of smoke blanketing
this area. Plenty of people who

28
00:01:46,170 --> 00:01:49,530
have had camped here for the
night at the Aden wharf after

29
00:01:49,530 --> 00:01:52,950
what has been a pretty difficult
few days in this town. It must

30
00:01:52,950 --> 00:01:55,890
be said, people staying here
because this morning there was

31
00:01:55,890 --> 00:01:59,040
an emergency level fire that had
been coming from the Victorian

32
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,010
border towards this town. I
spoke to one local resident

33
00:02:02,010 --> 00:02:05,490
Joanne a short time ago she
tells me about what it was like

34
00:02:05,490 --> 00:02:07,710
to be in the town as this fire
came towards it.

35
00:02:07,889 --> 00:02:10,409
I thought I'd have to come down
here tonight. But with this

36
00:02:10,409 --> 00:02:14,459
rain, it's heaven sent. And I
went home wash me ham here was

37
00:02:14,459 --> 00:02:18,089
that dirty or couldn't believe
it? And the birds come out and

38
00:02:18,089 --> 00:02:20,639
they started singing this
afternoon. So we figured that

39
00:02:21,179 --> 00:02:22,319
we're right.

40
00:02:22,649 --> 00:02:29,069
Not out of the woods yet. But
heaven sent birds and rain in

41
00:02:29,069 --> 00:02:29,519
Australia.

42
00:02:29,970 --> 00:02:33,510
Did you see this morning's
report about the rain? No. It

43
00:02:33,510 --> 00:02:35,490
was caused by the intense heat.

44
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:42,870
No. Bull crap. It was caused by
rain sticks. We all know how

45
00:02:42,870 --> 00:02:44,700
this works. Intense heat.

46
00:02:45,299 --> 00:02:50,309
But it said I'm taking one
thing. We never get credit for

47
00:02:50,309 --> 00:02:50,939
any ever,

48
00:02:51,030 --> 00:02:54,450
ever, ever do it. Now we need a
lot more rain to fall. But it's

49
00:02:54,450 --> 00:02:56,610
a good start. And they're
predicting a lot more. So.

50
00:02:56,910 --> 00:03:00,150
Hopefully things will look I
sent out a note on Thursday to

51
00:03:00,150 --> 00:03:05,400
all produce Australian producers
and how you guys doing? And

52
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:11,310
everybody kind of had the kind
of had the same same feedback.

53
00:03:11,460 --> 00:03:16,080
It's like yeah, it's bad. It's
been worse. But there was a lot

54
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,200
that could be done and Oh, yes.
Some of this may have been set

55
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:25,500
by arsonists, which I think is
with 85% of all forest fires. is

56
00:03:25,500 --> 00:03:31,380
some chance of arson involved
that crazy people. arsonists.

57
00:03:31,920 --> 00:03:35,730
Well, yeah, well, I have a
report. They actually know where

58
00:03:35,730 --> 00:03:38,850
the arsonist is, are apparently
in Australia. Well listen

59
00:03:38,850 --> 00:03:44,100
to this the fire is destructive
force was fast and furious. Now

60
00:03:44,100 --> 00:03:47,640
the meticulous investigation
will soon be poring over the

61
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,600
devastated fire grounds. All
along the south coast. vital

62
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,020
work for the coroner who will
probe all aspects of the fire.

63
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,810
There's an enormous amount of
work to prepare for the current

64
00:03:57,810 --> 00:04:01,110
and not just with the burned out
buildings and structures but

65
00:04:01,110 --> 00:04:04,680
also clearly the deaths of
people that have occurred as a

66
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:05,760
result of these fires

67
00:04:05,850 --> 00:04:08,790
and a more sinister
consideration where the fires

68
00:04:08,790 --> 00:04:12,060
intentionally started. Police
have formed at Strikeforce

69
00:04:12,060 --> 00:04:15,990
indera, comprising detectives
from Homicide and arson squads.

70
00:04:16,350 --> 00:04:19,920
Plus drawing on insights from
officers with local knowledge

71
00:04:19,950 --> 00:04:21,090
who will lead the work

72
00:04:21,119 --> 00:04:24,419
we will make available any other
specialists resources in terms

73
00:04:24,419 --> 00:04:27,299
of our forensic services group
and other criminal

74
00:04:27,299 --> 00:04:28,109
investigators.

75
00:04:28,140 --> 00:04:31,110
Arson squad detectives are also
part of the strike force

76
00:04:31,110 --> 00:04:33,930
responsible for tracking down
fire bugs known to be

77
00:04:33,930 --> 00:04:37,500
responsible for lighting
deliberately lit fires like this

78
00:04:37,500 --> 00:04:41,610
one at South Turramurra last
November part of their charter

79
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:45,630
is also proactive knocking on
the doors of known arsonists

80
00:04:45,630 --> 00:04:46,830
when conditions get this

81
00:04:46,830 --> 00:04:52,680
bad Hey, Mr. arsonist, hey, just
want to check make sure you're

82
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,560
not starting any fires. This
sounds kind of weird.

83
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,980
Well, it doesn't happen so much
in this country because we find

84
00:04:58,980 --> 00:05:03,120
ways to throw the key away with
an arsonist because it also says

85
00:05:03,690 --> 00:05:06,990
because it's been determined
it's not just it's beyond be it

86
00:05:06,990 --> 00:05:10,230
is beyond a sickness is a sexual
perversion

87
00:05:10,890 --> 00:05:14,190
Oh I didn't know about the
sexual perversion part we just

88
00:05:14,220 --> 00:05:18,690
discussed a lot but in Australia
you just go you know where they

89
00:05:18,690 --> 00:05:19,830
are you just go knock on the
door

90
00:05:19,830 --> 00:05:21,450
Hey registered arsonist Hey

91
00:05:21,450 --> 00:05:23,850
70 fires lately hey don't do it.
Okay

92
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,450
don't do any knocking on the
doors have known arsonists when

93
00:05:27,450 --> 00:05:31,080
conditions get this bad to
prevent them from getting up to

94
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,360
no good Oh, seven years has been
Tulsa

95
00:05:33,390 --> 00:05:37,710
believable. I find that very
lackadaisical.

96
00:05:39,630 --> 00:05:40,440
Yes.

97
00:05:41,700 --> 00:05:44,940
If you have a tinderbox country
with this have a tinderbox

98
00:05:44,940 --> 00:05:48,270
country you know maybe you
should keep a real just not you

99
00:05:48,270 --> 00:05:52,920
know, happenstance just drop by
and knock on the door. It's like

100
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:58,140
when I was in tuk tuk tuk. North
I was in the North Pole years

101
00:05:58,140 --> 00:06:03,930
and years ago, what it took to
Yaak Tuck is that tight? Yes.

102
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,680
It's a little bit above Inuvik
in the northwestern territories

103
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:11,760
and this was the Molson ice
polar beach party with

104
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:17,190
Metallica. And whole and Veruca
Salt was in we cyber casted,

105
00:06:17,220 --> 00:06:19,890
this is a long time ago. So
we're up there. It's

106
00:06:19,919 --> 00:06:21,959
last which is cyber casted, oh,

107
00:06:22,020 --> 00:06:25,560
we had a mux. We had 24.

108
00:06:25,650 --> 00:06:26,730
I've heard enough going

109
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:32,280
24 phone lines that we that we
combined in a MCSE with the was

110
00:06:32,280 --> 00:06:36,180
it 9600 baud modems. And so
that's how we did the cyber cast

111
00:06:36,210 --> 00:06:40,980
anyway. It was at the time we
were there was 23 hours, light

112
00:06:41,010 --> 00:06:45,210
during the day. And you know,
you're up there and it's kind of

113
00:06:45,210 --> 00:06:50,190
like an oil rig area. And you
know, just kids are driving

114
00:06:50,190 --> 00:06:52,920
around on their bikes midnight
because it's you know, the sun's

115
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,970
out, and where the whole crew is
looking for something to drink.

116
00:06:58,830 --> 00:07:02,550
Which of course is not allowed
in that in that area in those

117
00:07:02,550 --> 00:07:06,480
territories. So you kind of sign
up to kids say, Hey, do you know

118
00:07:07,260 --> 00:07:10,140
any chance and the kid
immediately will go Oh, you want

119
00:07:10,140 --> 00:07:12,630
the drug dealer or the booze
guy? Is that house or that

120
00:07:12,630 --> 00:07:16,080
house? That's kind of like the
arsonist in Australia. Oh, he

121
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:17,070
lives over there, mate.

122
00:07:20,250 --> 00:07:21,750
Yeah, just like that.

123
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:26,970
But not only are we helping with
the rain stick apparently the

124
00:07:26,970 --> 00:07:32,790
Australian government even
listens to our show. Well, that

125
00:07:32,790 --> 00:07:36,660
would be different. Yeah, the
Prime Minister he's He not only

126
00:07:36,660 --> 00:07:39,720
does he listen, he's he's taking
our material boots on the

127
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:40,170
ground.

128
00:07:40,739 --> 00:07:44,699
People lifting our material and
not crediting crediting us I'm

129
00:07:44,699 --> 00:07:45,689
absolutely sure that

130
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,440
well here it is boots on the
ground. planes in the air ships

131
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,140
at sea and trucks rolling into
communities that have been

132
00:07:52,140 --> 00:07:54,300
impacted taken on material

133
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:57,600
well, there's no subs in the
water.

134
00:07:58,650 --> 00:08:02,190
It's not going to help much with
the fires. Anyway, we wish

135
00:08:02,190 --> 00:08:04,860
Australia The best we hope
everything is going very well

136
00:08:09,870 --> 00:08:15,270
so some guy got shot. Or blowed
blowed up. Yeah, apparently

137
00:08:15,270 --> 00:08:21,360
right after our show. Yeah,
thanks. And it was just it was a

138
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:25,110
guy. I don't know about you. But
I made the claim that no one's

139
00:08:25,110 --> 00:08:27,570
ever heard of this guy. Now all
of a sudden he's the most famous

140
00:08:27,570 --> 00:08:32,730
guy in the world. First and you
have people protesting people

141
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:37,050
protesting in San Francisco
ceulemans unfairly It was like

142
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,530
they don't know who this guy is.
They can't identify Iran I

143
00:08:40,530 --> 00:08:43,170
mentioned this in a newsletter
you couldn't find it on a map

144
00:08:43,650 --> 00:08:46,890
I think we need to open the
segment properly we've done this

145
00:08:46,890 --> 00:08:51,420
segment about Iran probably
since the third year of the show

146
00:08:51,420 --> 00:08:54,300
and we have jingles whenever we
talk about Iran bomb

147
00:08:54,300 --> 00:09:11,580
Iran bom bom bom bom bom bom
bom.

148
00:09:16,020 --> 00:09:19,110
Right everybody the war machine
is rolling. Once again.

149
00:09:19,110 --> 00:09:22,710
Everybody loves a little bit of
war with Iran because we all get

150
00:09:22,710 --> 00:09:28,560
to talk, talk and pontificate
and talk and threatened and mark

151
00:09:28,590 --> 00:09:33,420
to sharing signs, shake a carry
signs and be smart and tweet and

152
00:09:33,420 --> 00:09:35,100
tweet. But if

153
00:09:35,100 --> 00:09:37,470
I know about that thing in San
Francisco, we're headed over

154
00:09:37,470 --> 00:09:40,260
there because there's had to be
a lot of collectable signs.

155
00:09:40,500 --> 00:09:47,700
I have an M five M Company large
or short one of their immediate

156
00:09:47,700 --> 00:09:53,580
assessment of solomani. As you
know, a revered man jobs and

157
00:09:53,580 --> 00:09:54,180
iconic

158
00:09:54,180 --> 00:09:56,190
military leader a revered figure

159
00:09:56,190 --> 00:10:00,510
Soleimani is is difficult to
convey how revered he is

160
00:10:00,510 --> 00:10:03,240
regarded as personally
incredibly brave the troops

161
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,340
love him trying to think of
somebody I was thinking of de

162
00:10:05,340 --> 00:10:06,630
Gaulle, a brilliant

163
00:10:06,630 --> 00:10:09,870
man. He was the Cardinal
Richelieu. He was the

164
00:10:09,870 --> 00:10:11,580
Machiavelli even many

165
00:10:11,580 --> 00:10:15,540
of sulamani enemies admitted he
was a military genius.

166
00:10:15,540 --> 00:10:19,350
Let's assume for a minute that
he was at the Baghdadi at the

167
00:10:19,350 --> 00:10:23,130
Baghdad airport and deserve
this. Okay, let's just stipulate

168
00:10:23,130 --> 00:10:26,640
that let's just say maybe it was
the right decision to take him

169
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:31,680
out. But you have in that case,
right decision. Wrong commander

170
00:10:31,680 --> 00:10:39,120
in chief. All Yes, that was
actually a good point. How does

171
00:10:39,150 --> 00:10:43,770
all this jive with Thomas
Friedman's column which he

172
00:10:43,770 --> 00:10:48,060
actually had excerpted in the
newsletter? Yes. Where he starts

173
00:10:48,060 --> 00:10:52,440
off by saying sulamani was the
dumbest guy ever. He's a

174
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,320
bonehead. Nobody liked it. Oh,

175
00:10:55,320 --> 00:11:01,320
shoot, oh, wait, oh, I gotta
play the CIA analyst who was on

176
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:06,510
the BBC. So again, he was the
dumbest guy was that that's what

177
00:11:06,510 --> 00:11:07,770
that's what Friedman said.

178
00:11:08,070 --> 00:11:11,280
Dumb is guy and they're gonna
name a street after Trump

179
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,980
because they get he killed them.
It was this

180
00:11:14,970 --> 00:11:18,210
dramatic development for a
complicated region. Here to

181
00:11:18,210 --> 00:11:20,790
break it all down is Kenneth
Pollock, a former CIA

182
00:11:20,790 --> 00:11:23,730
intelligence analyst who's now
at the American Enterprise

183
00:11:23,730 --> 00:11:25,500
Institute. Thanks for being with
us. It

184
00:11:25,500 --> 00:11:26,250
was a pleasure life.

185
00:11:26,460 --> 00:11:30,360
So you wrote that General
Soleimani was like a combination

186
00:11:30,390 --> 00:11:35,670
of Lady Gaga, James Bond, and
Rommel all rolled into one. How

187
00:11:35,670 --> 00:11:38,160
significant is the moment of his
death?

188
00:11:38,220 --> 00:11:43,020
Very significant. He was hugely
important for Iranians. He was

189
00:11:43,020 --> 00:11:47,520
extremely popular within Iran.
He was a critical elements of

190
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,430
the Iranian leadership,
arguably, perhaps the second

191
00:11:50,430 --> 00:11:51,840
most powerful man in Iran.

192
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:56,580
Yes. Just like James Bond and
Lady Gaga rolled up into one.

193
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,590
So we're getting mixed messages
from the CIA that way I see.

194
00:12:01,770 --> 00:12:04,860
Yeah, no kidding. And I'm
guessing that freedom is

195
00:12:04,860 --> 00:12:06,870
probably better connected than
that guy.

196
00:12:07,500 --> 00:12:11,550
Yeah, this is yeah, I've heard
he's, he's a go to guy for the

197
00:12:11,550 --> 00:12:12,240
BBC.

198
00:12:13,530 --> 00:12:20,520
Well, they should go go to
someplace else. Well, let's

199
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,190
listen to some regular ratings
and just the normal straight up

200
00:12:23,190 --> 00:12:26,880
reports. It's funny that one
that's the most one of the most

201
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:31,140
objective ones that I'm gonna
play right away is the democracy

202
00:12:31,140 --> 00:12:34,770
now they actually did I think
they were more even handed than

203
00:12:34,770 --> 00:12:39,660
ABC. Let's listen to this is
SULI SULI. They're all called

204
00:12:39,660 --> 00:12:43,890
SULI. And this is ABCs. Intro.
Oh, are you gonna do ABC first?

205
00:12:44,010 --> 00:12:48,810
Yes. First we'll get to the AMI
Ami. The AMI took good. They all

206
00:12:48,810 --> 00:12:54,120
took it to 10 minutes. All the
networks and Ami to Okay. Gay

207
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:54,360
again.

208
00:12:54,390 --> 00:12:58,110
Big segment. Big segment. Okay,
here's a democracy ABC.

209
00:12:58,140 --> 00:13:00,930
As we come on. President Trump
has now addressed the nation

210
00:13:00,930 --> 00:13:04,860
about that major escalation in
the conflict with Iran. The US

211
00:13:04,860 --> 00:13:08,640
drone strike targeting an
Iranian military chief minutes

212
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:12,180
after he landed at the airport
in Baghdad, general Qasem

213
00:13:12,180 --> 00:13:15,210
Soleimani, the architect of
Iranian intelligence and

214
00:13:15,210 --> 00:13:18,870
military operations across the
region for decades, a revered

215
00:13:18,870 --> 00:13:22,560
figure in Iran today 1000s
mourning and protesting in

216
00:13:22,560 --> 00:13:26,040
Tehran, Iran Supreme Leader
vowing harsh retaliation and

217
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,460
revenge for the death of the man
he called a martyr. But

218
00:13:29,460 --> 00:13:32,520
President Trump blamed Soleimani
for the killing of hundreds of

219
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:36,000
Americans and claimed he was
actively plotting to kill more

220
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,000
when he was found and
terminated. The president saying

221
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,120
he did not order the strike to
start a war with Iran, but to

222
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:46,140
stop one. And yet tonight, some
3500 more troops are being sent

223
00:13:46,140 --> 00:13:50,010
to the region and others put on
alert ABCs chief global affairs

224
00:13:50,010 --> 00:13:53,130
correspondent Martha Raddatz
leading us off with the timeline

225
00:13:53,250 --> 00:13:57,570
and the Swift reaction. All
right.

226
00:13:58,110 --> 00:14:01,650
So there was some time stopped
it there for some reason,

227
00:14:02,910 --> 00:14:08,070
timeline swift reaction, and by
the way, the Swift reaction. The

228
00:14:08,580 --> 00:14:12,990
this was obviously not Trump's
operation. No, no, no. Because

229
00:14:12,990 --> 00:14:16,260
then the Trump's not driving
drones around following guys.

230
00:14:16,290 --> 00:14:16,710
And if

231
00:14:16,740 --> 00:14:21,180
I Well, hold on, let's just stop
there for one second. About the

232
00:14:21,180 --> 00:14:25,860
drones. I looked up some of the
statistics. And at this point in

233
00:14:25,860 --> 00:14:29,670
his presidency, under President
Trump, there have been more

234
00:14:29,670 --> 00:14:33,840
drone killings, then under Obama
and Obama was kind of the drone

235
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:37,560
King. Now granted, you don't
hear about them much anymore. I

236
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:41,100
think a lot of them are taking
place in Yemen. And that's paid

237
00:14:41,100 --> 00:14:47,430
work for the for the for the
Saudis, but I personally, I

238
00:14:47,430 --> 00:14:53,850
despise drone killings. And the
reason is, first of all, it is

239
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:58,110
it is absolute terror, that you
have drones flying around

240
00:14:58,110 --> 00:15:01,530
everywhere in the world except
America. A drone flies and

241
00:15:01,530 --> 00:15:04,380
people duck in, they're freaking
out. Because, you know, that

242
00:15:04,380 --> 00:15:08,070
usually means you're gonna hear
something next and then someone

243
00:15:08,100 --> 00:15:13,320
gets blown to smithereens. I do
not like this type of warfare.

244
00:15:13,590 --> 00:15:17,190
And we got to be very careful
being all Jedi about it, because

245
00:15:17,220 --> 00:15:20,610
we already have unidentified
drones flying over Colorado.

246
00:15:20,610 --> 00:15:23,460
Now, granted, they're not the
same platform as what we're

247
00:15:23,460 --> 00:15:26,250
talking about here. But these
drones can carry some weaponry.

248
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:30,900
And one day, one day we will
have drone strikes on Americans.

249
00:15:30,930 --> 00:15:33,330
There's no doubt about it. I'm
just saying don't get all too

250
00:15:33,330 --> 00:15:36,120
happy about this because it's
fucked up shit drones. I don't

251
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:40,050
like it at all. was one way of
putting it.

252
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:45,270
Let's play dominant back off
from the ABC report. Always a

253
00:15:45,270 --> 00:15:50,910
switchback coming in nevermind,
play. ABC switchback dead end

254
00:15:50,910 --> 00:15:53,880
weird. This is the weird clip
here. I wanted to separate it

255
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:54,150
out.

256
00:15:55,500 --> 00:15:58,620
Mary, most members of Congress
were not given a heads up about

257
00:15:58,620 --> 00:16:01,680
the President's action against
Iran. And tonight lawmakers from

258
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,020
both parties are demanding more
information

259
00:16:04,590 --> 00:16:07,830
when both sides are eager to
know what comes next. What's the

260
00:16:07,830 --> 00:16:11,310
broader strategy here? And
what's the plan for if and when

261
00:16:11,460 --> 00:16:14,730
Iran retaliates we do expect the
full Senate will receive a

262
00:16:14,730 --> 00:16:17,790
classified briefing next week.
And Speaker Pelosi is demanding

263
00:16:17,790 --> 00:16:19,890
the same over in the house with

264
00:16:20,790 --> 00:16:23,970
what what exactly was that? Was
the switch back there?

265
00:16:24,660 --> 00:16:28,590
I think is because they started
off with an assertion that

266
00:16:28,650 --> 00:16:31,710
nobody knew what was going on.
And they wanted to find out more

267
00:16:31,710 --> 00:16:34,800
and then they never did even
addressed it. Well, I think

268
00:16:34,830 --> 00:16:35,160
let's just

269
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:38,250
talk about about that response
for a moment where all of a

270
00:16:38,250 --> 00:16:43,050
sudden Congress has some kind of
conscience. And they're like,

271
00:16:43,050 --> 00:16:46,770
Well, you you can't do that. The
Congress needs to declare war.

272
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:50,400
Let's just set it straight real
quick. Ever since September

273
00:16:50,670 --> 00:16:55,260
11 2001, a little bit after
that. We've had the authorised

274
00:16:55,260 --> 00:16:59,580
Use of Military Force as long as
you can use the word terrorist

275
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:03,810
in a sentence. You can operate
under that and do anything you

276
00:17:03,810 --> 00:17:07,290
want killin. How do you think we
got into into Syria under Obama?

277
00:17:07,620 --> 00:17:12,660
Congress didn't authorise a war
in Syria. Now, if anything

278
00:17:12,660 --> 00:17:18,810
Congress needs to shut up
because we've been acting, we've

279
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:22,050
we've been conducting acts of
war against Iran with the

280
00:17:22,050 --> 00:17:26,520
sanctions. I consider that to be
actual warfare. They didn't

281
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:28,560
condone, actually, they did
condone it.

282
00:17:29,580 --> 00:17:32,820
It Congress is just beside it.
So they don't know what to do,

283
00:17:32,820 --> 00:17:36,600
because this is affecting their
whole strategy for the election.

284
00:17:37,650 --> 00:17:41,340
Now, yes, well, you mentioned a
part of Congress should shut up.

285
00:17:41,340 --> 00:17:44,850
Let's go to the CNN version of
this report. This is the an

286
00:17:44,850 --> 00:17:48,840
analyst who came on CNN, who
mentioned who thought didn't

287
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:52,860
think much a Suleimani thought
he was a moron for going into he

288
00:17:52,860 --> 00:17:57,120
just blows into a rock on his
own after the embassy attack.

289
00:17:57,390 --> 00:18:01,830
Just shows up, like he you know,
wow, I do and I'm here to see my

290
00:18:01,830 --> 00:18:06,180
boys. Anyway, just play this. So
you get it.

291
00:18:06,450 --> 00:18:09,270
Officials in France say that
today we wake up to a more

292
00:18:09,270 --> 00:18:12,210
dangerous world, Democratic
Senator Chris Murphy asked the

293
00:18:12,210 --> 00:18:15,060
question, did America just
assassinate without

294
00:18:15,060 --> 00:18:18,360
congressional authorization, the
second most powerful person in

295
00:18:18,360 --> 00:18:22,260
Iran, knowingly setting off a
potential potential massive

296
00:18:22,260 --> 00:18:26,490
regional war? So Is America
safer? Without someone this

297
00:18:26,490 --> 00:18:26,910
morning?

298
00:18:26,970 --> 00:18:29,580
What I would say to Senator
Murphy is, why don't you just be

299
00:18:29,580 --> 00:18:35,670
quiet? wins as Iran ever
demonstrated self restraint? I

300
00:18:35,670 --> 00:18:38,400
mean, that's the question I
have. So is the world more

301
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:42,420
dangerous today? Maybe it's more
dangerous, but when has it not

302
00:18:42,420 --> 00:18:47,130
been dangerous? When have we not
been a target of a regime like

303
00:18:47,130 --> 00:18:50,280
exists in Tehran? I mean, it
happens as a matter of routine.

304
00:18:50,580 --> 00:18:54,660
What I find amazingly brazen is
the fact that sulamani felt

305
00:18:54,930 --> 00:18:57,840
comfortable. And he felt
somewhat naive that he could

306
00:18:57,900 --> 00:19:02,460
simply show up in Baghdad. And
in his role as the leader of the

307
00:19:02,460 --> 00:19:05,610
IRGC and the Quds Force, he
shows up and he says, Hey, guys,

308
00:19:05,610 --> 00:19:08,430
how's it going? How's this
attack on the US Embassy going?

309
00:19:08,610 --> 00:19:12,870
Absolutely brazen. And at that
moment, in advance, we had built

310
00:19:12,870 --> 00:19:16,050
up intelligence, which was
pattern of life, different forms

311
00:19:16,050 --> 00:19:19,320
of intelligence. And so we had
this target folder on Suleimani.

312
00:19:19,620 --> 00:19:23,070
And this opportunity presented
itself and I'm certain what

313
00:19:23,070 --> 00:19:24,870
happened was we decided the
President made the

314
00:19:24,870 --> 00:19:28,290
determination, let's pull the
trigger now. And it was, I would

315
00:19:28,290 --> 00:19:31,980
say, not causally linked to what
occurred at the US Embassy a

316
00:19:31,980 --> 00:19:36,000
couple of days before other than
he happened to be there checking

317
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:37,890
up on what was what was taking
place.

318
00:19:40,170 --> 00:19:44,490
He's so smart. He's a genius. I
mean, all you need is one of

319
00:19:44,490 --> 00:19:48,900
those drone target locator
devices in your pocket, also

320
00:19:48,900 --> 00:19:53,970
known as a smartphone. That's,
that's how you target a guy like

321
00:19:53,970 --> 00:19:58,530
that. I think I got a lot of
briefings over the past two

322
00:19:58,530 --> 00:20:01,050
days. So we get into that now.
Moment. I want to hear what

323
00:20:01,050 --> 00:20:05,610
other clips you have. I do want
to play one brief one here from

324
00:20:05,610 --> 00:20:09,060
Debbie Wasserman Schultz. She's
a congresswoman from Florida.

325
00:20:10,020 --> 00:20:14,490
not well liked here on the no
agenda show. And of course, she

326
00:20:14,490 --> 00:20:17,670
had to go where you are. You
mentioned just a minute ago that

327
00:20:17,670 --> 00:20:20,550
oh, well, we all know what this
is really about. We know why

328
00:20:20,550 --> 00:20:21,840
Trump does these things.

329
00:20:21,870 --> 00:20:26,820
What I think is going on here,
frankly, is that this action was

330
00:20:26,820 --> 00:20:30,180
taken more in President Trump's
self interest rather than our

331
00:20:30,180 --> 00:20:35,520
national interest. We had
damning developments in just the

332
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:39,780
last day where emails came out,
that made it very clear that

333
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:44,100
they covered up the real reason
behind the the withholding of

334
00:20:44,100 --> 00:20:47,160
the hundreds of millions of
dollars to Ukraine. Donald Trump

335
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:51,840
was impeached a week and a half
ago and we need to get to the

336
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:56,700
bottom of how and who carried
helped him carry out this

337
00:20:56,730 --> 00:21:02,670
illegal cover up to to allow him
to withhold aid to help him

338
00:21:02,700 --> 00:21:07,260
politically and personally
allowing Ukraine to interfere in

339
00:21:07,260 --> 00:21:10,500
the presidential election 2020
That's outrageous. And I think

340
00:21:10,500 --> 00:21:11,790
that has a lot to do with what
this has

341
00:21:13,740 --> 00:21:17,910
meant the latest memo please.
She's way off message here.

342
00:21:19,950 --> 00:21:22,800
Well, you know, she used to
write those messages and pretty

343
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:27,990
much think she still has the
ability to go freelance. She's

344
00:21:27,990 --> 00:21:34,170
gone rogue. Do it live. All
right, again, let's go let's

345
00:21:34,170 --> 00:21:36,510
just skip the rest of the ABC
stuff. It's not that good. Let's

346
00:21:36,510 --> 00:21:45,630
go to the AMI. And this will be
SULI rundown WTF one deploy

347
00:21:45,630 --> 00:21:45,990
knighted

348
00:21:45,990 --> 00:21:49,080
states is assassinated the
Iranian commander, Major General

349
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:52,230
Qasem Suleimani and a major
escalation of the conflict

350
00:21:52,230 --> 00:21:55,260
between Iran and the United
States, which now threatens to

351
00:21:55,260 --> 00:21:59,100
engulf Iraq in the Middle East.
President Trump authorised the

352
00:21:59,100 --> 00:22:01,950
drone strike that killed
Soleimani at the Baghdad

353
00:22:01,980 --> 00:22:05,760
International Airport. It killed
also four other people,

354
00:22:05,790 --> 00:22:09,630
including a high level Iraqi
militia chief, this happened

355
00:22:09,630 --> 00:22:13,290
Thursday night us time Friday
morning in Baghdad. General

356
00:22:13,290 --> 00:22:16,680
Suleimani has long been one of
the most powerful figures in

357
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,100
Iran. He was the leader of the
Islamic Revolutionary Guard

358
00:22:20,100 --> 00:22:24,030
Corps Quds Force, Iran's
powerful foreign military force

359
00:22:24,030 --> 00:22:28,770
similar to a combination of the
CIA and US special forces Iran

360
00:22:28,770 --> 00:22:31,260
called Suleimani is
assassination and active

361
00:22:31,260 --> 00:22:32,670
international terrorism.

362
00:22:35,100 --> 00:22:40,830
Yeah. Did you hear what she
said? What what was said that

363
00:22:40,830 --> 00:22:46,260
Trump called the assassination
of sulamani an act of

364
00:22:46,260 --> 00:22:48,450
international terrorism here
that again,

365
00:22:49,110 --> 00:22:52,500
powerful foreign military force
similar to a combination of the

366
00:22:52,500 --> 00:22:57,570
CIA and US special forces Iran
called Suleimani assassination

367
00:22:57,570 --> 00:22:58,980
and active international Iran

368
00:22:58,980 --> 00:23:01,800
not Trump. Iran called it that.
Oh

369
00:23:03,810 --> 00:23:08,820
well, did I miss it? I misheard.
I'm hoping I'm hoping for the

370
00:23:08,820 --> 00:23:09,990
best Okay, you're right.

371
00:23:10,710 --> 00:23:13,800
What are you doing Devorah I'm
losing the

372
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:19,200
plot. Got a run down to Julie
Islami. Agha has been

373
00:23:19,230 --> 00:23:22,440
Islamic Republic decides to
challenge and fight a country it

374
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:25,680
will do so unequivocally. We are
strongly committed to our

375
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,920
country's interests and our
peace. We are strongly committed

376
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,470
to the dignity of our country.
We are strongly committed to the

377
00:23:31,470 --> 00:23:34,500
progress and greatness of our
country. And if anyone threatens

378
00:23:34,500 --> 00:23:37,740
that we will without any
hesitation confront it and

379
00:23:37,740 --> 00:23:38,370
strike it.

380
00:23:38,490 --> 00:23:41,970
The targeted assassination came
after members of an Iranian

381
00:23:41,970 --> 00:23:45,360
backed Iraqi militia and its
supporters attack the US Embassy

382
00:23:45,360 --> 00:23:49,350
in Baghdad and set fire to a
gate house in response to a slew

383
00:23:49,350 --> 00:23:52,530
of us airstrikes in Iraq and
Syria that killed two dozen

384
00:23:52,530 --> 00:23:56,340
members of the Iranian backed
Iraqi militia caught the head

385
00:23:56,370 --> 00:24:00,690
Hezbollah these strikes were in
retaliation for the killing of

386
00:24:00,690 --> 00:24:04,020
an American contractor in a
rocket attack in Kirkuk Iraq a

387
00:24:04,020 --> 00:24:08,400
week ago. So there

388
00:24:09,060 --> 00:24:15,060
I don't know about you, but it
seems to me that the Iraqis have

389
00:24:15,060 --> 00:24:17,490
no control over their own
country. All this action is

390
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:18,330
Iranian.

391
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:21,150
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Well,
there's, I mean, I have a bit of

392
00:24:21,150 --> 00:24:24,120
an analysis I want to wait and
see what what clips we get out

393
00:24:24,120 --> 00:24:24,990
of the way first,

394
00:24:25,830 --> 00:24:28,680
like subsidiary of Amy would get
her get a roll in here the

395
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:34,590
head of cutterhead Hezbollah,
Abu Mahdi muhandis, was also

396
00:24:34,590 --> 00:24:38,040
killed in the drone strike. The
New York Times reports general

397
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,880
Suleimani had flown into Baghdad
from Syria in order to urge

398
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:45,450
Iranian backed militias in Iraq
to do more to stop the wave of

399
00:24:45,450 --> 00:24:49,350
anti Iran protests that have
swept Iraq in recent months. The

400
00:24:49,350 --> 00:24:52,290
militias are already accused of
killing and disappearing

401
00:24:52,290 --> 00:24:55,800
protesters and human rights
activists. The Pentagon spent

402
00:24:55,890 --> 00:25:00,450
has sent more than 14,000 US
troops to the region since May,

403
00:25:00,690 --> 00:25:04,380
the US is now warning American
civilians to leave Iraq

404
00:25:04,410 --> 00:25:08,010
immediately. The attack has
sparked fear and alarm in Iraq

405
00:25:08,010 --> 00:25:11,580
and across the world. France's
Deputy Minister for Foreign

406
00:25:11,580 --> 00:25:15,810
Affairs said this morning we are
waking up in a more dangerous

407
00:25:15,810 --> 00:25:19,740
world, unquote. tensions between
the United States and Iran have

408
00:25:19,740 --> 00:25:23,010
been escalating since President
Trump withdrew the US from the

409
00:25:23,010 --> 00:25:26,970
landmark Iran nuclear deal and
impose crushing economic

410
00:25:26,970 --> 00:25:31,050
sanctions on Iran. In response
to the assassination protests

411
00:25:31,050 --> 00:25:34,920
are planned Saturday in at least
30 cities across the US as part

412
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,950
of a national day of action US
troops out of Iraq.

413
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:43,050
Yeah, as usual democracy now and
ABC, and I'm sure most most

414
00:25:43,140 --> 00:25:46,440
mainstream networks in the
United States really had no

415
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:50,490
analysis. It was just you know,
just regurgitating blah, blah,

416
00:25:50,490 --> 00:25:54,270
blah, on a protest. And the date
no one really,

417
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,660
no, there was no analysis that
which I actually prefer,

418
00:25:57,930 --> 00:26:04,020
especially for Democracy Now.
The analysis they do is so poor.

419
00:26:05,340 --> 00:26:10,110
Well, the BBC, the CIA,
basically went straight to BBC,

420
00:26:10,140 --> 00:26:13,200
they had all their guys out
there. Everybody was talking to

421
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:14,010
the BBC.

422
00:26:14,429 --> 00:26:16,679
And we'll access Yeah, okay.
Well, I

423
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,050
mean, I think that they were
trying to do it

424
00:26:19,050 --> 00:26:21,660
as part of the system. I mean,
you want to, yes, plant the

425
00:26:21,660 --> 00:26:24,570
information overseas, and then
point to it? Well, I mean,

426
00:26:24,570 --> 00:26:27,000
otherwise, you're gonna get Tom
Friedman going on and on about

427
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:28,260
the guy being a moron.

428
00:26:28,949 --> 00:26:33,989
So I have a couple of clips from
the BBC News Hour regarding,

429
00:26:34,379 --> 00:26:37,799
well, the whole really the whole
sequence. So first about the

430
00:26:37,799 --> 00:26:41,399
actual reasoning for doing this.
Well, here's the clip. I've

431
00:26:41,399 --> 00:26:41,789
spoken

432
00:26:41,790 --> 00:26:45,360
now to two officials who were
briefed on the intelligence that

433
00:26:45,360 --> 00:26:49,440
led to the strike. And what
they're both saying is that the

434
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:54,510
claim that there was a limited
library to claim. What is

435
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:58,110
she in a library way she
whispering her report?

436
00:26:58,200 --> 00:26:59,970
That's a very serious matter.

437
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,150
What they're both saying is that
the claim that there was an

438
00:27:03,150 --> 00:27:06,780
imminent attack that would have
claimed hundreds of lives, is

439
00:27:06,780 --> 00:27:10,020
razor thin. In fact, the
intelligence showed three

440
00:27:10,020 --> 00:27:13,800
things. Number one, there was a
pattern of travel for General

441
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:17,700
Soleimani that showed that he
had been in Iraq, in Lebanon and

442
00:27:17,700 --> 00:27:21,390
in Syria, meeting with SIA
proxies that are known to have a

443
00:27:21,390 --> 00:27:25,080
confrontational relationship
with the US. Number two, there

444
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:29,130
was chatter of a conversation
between general Yeah,

445
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:33,030
this this chatter word actually
popped up a couple of times in,

446
00:27:34,500 --> 00:27:37,680
in emails that I was said from
people, Hey, there's chatter

447
00:27:37,710 --> 00:27:40,950
over whenever someone says
chatter, I'm thinking you're

448
00:27:40,950 --> 00:27:45,780
spook. Unless you're copying
something from a spook verbatim

449
00:27:45,780 --> 00:27:46,830
in the news, too.

450
00:27:47,100 --> 00:27:50,220
There was chatter of a
conversation between this

451
00:27:50,220 --> 00:27:54,210
general and the Supreme Leader
of Iran, where the general said

452
00:27:54,210 --> 00:27:58,020
something on the order of I
would like to have approval for

453
00:27:58,020 --> 00:28:02,790
this operation. And the leader
of Iran asked him to come to to

454
00:28:02,820 --> 00:28:05,880
Iran for consultations,
basically not giving a Go ahead.

455
00:28:06,420 --> 00:28:09,450
And thirdly, there's been a
pattern of increasing

456
00:28:09,450 --> 00:28:14,640
bellicosity towards us interests
in the area that we saw with the

457
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,340
attack on the walls of the
embassy. But what the officials

458
00:28:17,340 --> 00:28:20,430
are telling me is that even
though one, two and three are

459
00:28:20,430 --> 00:28:24,510
worrying, it is not evidence of
what we have been told, which is

460
00:28:24,810 --> 00:28:25,980
this imminent attack.

461
00:28:26,490 --> 00:28:32,190
So there was a conflation, if
you like, of these three bits of

462
00:28:32,430 --> 00:28:39,240
evidence, and a deduction that
something big was planned, and

463
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,040
that the targets were American.

464
00:28:41,610 --> 00:28:44,400
That's right. And as one
official put it, it was an

465
00:28:44,430 --> 00:28:45,810
illogical leap.

466
00:28:46,650 --> 00:28:50,100
So this I thought was
interesting, because what it

467
00:28:50,100 --> 00:28:55,500
implies is that there was a
difference of opinion between

468
00:28:55,500 --> 00:29:00,990
the Supreme Leader of Iran, I
guess that will be Khomeini and

469
00:29:01,350 --> 00:29:05,610
Soleimani. And how many didn't
want him to go ahead with this

470
00:29:05,610 --> 00:29:10,530
didn't want him to do this big
strike, which is apparently what

471
00:29:10,530 --> 00:29:14,730
we counter struck. I thought
that was interesting that there

472
00:29:14,730 --> 00:29:20,460
may have been some disagreement
in the ranks there. Trump was

473
00:29:20,700 --> 00:29:24,690
subsequently presented with
multiple with a smorgasbord of

474
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,750
options of things he could do
and mind you. I think that the

475
00:29:27,750 --> 00:29:31,620
President is coming into a room
and the only people he might be

476
00:29:31,620 --> 00:29:34,500
able to trust there are his
daughter and her son in law, but

477
00:29:34,500 --> 00:29:38,340
then again, No, probably not.
Everybody there hates Iran,

478
00:29:38,340 --> 00:29:42,600
everybody wants to bomb the shit
out of them. So he chose the

479
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:43,590
extreme option.

480
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,740
As I understand it, the
assassination of General

481
00:29:46,740 --> 00:29:52,710
Soleimani was one of many
options being discussed as

482
00:29:52,740 --> 00:29:58,020
retaliation for the attack on an
Iraqi airbase, which killed an

483
00:29:58,020 --> 00:30:01,140
American contractor on December
the 27th.

484
00:30:01,410 --> 00:30:04,590
That's right. So the discussions
appear to have begun with

485
00:30:04,590 --> 00:30:08,550
President Trump on the 27th of
December, following the strike

486
00:30:08,550 --> 00:30:11,250
that killed us American
contractor. And at that point,

487
00:30:11,250 --> 00:30:14,610
he was presented what one source
described to me as a menu of

488
00:30:14,610 --> 00:30:18,450
options, where the killing of
Soleimani was basically the far

489
00:30:18,450 --> 00:30:22,590
out most extreme measures that
could be taken. At that point on

490
00:30:22,590 --> 00:30:25,800
the 27th. The President himself
did not choose that option, he

491
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,460
chose a more moderate path,
which was a strike on several

492
00:30:29,460 --> 00:30:33,660
bases that were linked to this
Iranian backed militia in Iraq

493
00:30:33,660 --> 00:30:37,980
and in the region. However, soon
after that, what we saw was an

494
00:30:37,980 --> 00:30:42,270
attack by Iranian backed
elements on the wall of the US

495
00:30:42,270 --> 00:30:45,900
Embassy. And at that point,
President Trump decided to go

496
00:30:45,900 --> 00:30:48,000
for this much more extreme
option.

497
00:30:48,030 --> 00:30:53,010
Yeah, I'm gonna call bull crap
on that. So agent, orange, our

498
00:30:53,010 --> 00:30:58,560
military intelligence, he
actually called me Friday, he

499
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:01,590
didn't rarely does he call, he
called me to explain what he

500
00:31:01,590 --> 00:31:04,380
thought was happening, I got a
lot of different briefings from

501
00:31:04,380 --> 00:31:08,040
people, you know, the
sympathetic information that as

502
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:13,050
well. But I think that something
else is going on here. And that

503
00:31:13,050 --> 00:31:15,390
this may have been a very
interesting move by Trump,

504
00:31:15,390 --> 00:31:18,840
although again, I'm against all
drone killings, I don't like it

505
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:25,530
at all. So solomani is a little
bit of background, which I don't

506
00:31:25,530 --> 00:31:29,850
think anyone gave any, any
proper background. He's a hero

507
00:31:29,850 --> 00:31:33,900
of the Iran Iraq War. He was
promoted to division commander,

508
00:31:34,140 --> 00:31:39,870
when he was 23. Well, we've all
heard he was Mr. James Bond, all

509
00:31:39,870 --> 00:31:42,600
superstars fantastic. So it
becomes the commander of the

510
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:45,870
revolutionary Revolutionary
Guard. And then commander of the

511
00:31:45,870 --> 00:31:50,880
Quds force, which is it's kind
of like special forces. But it

512
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:53,460
really has a different position
from what I understand. It's

513
00:31:53,460 --> 00:31:57,780
above the revolutionary, the
Iranian or armed forces, so they

514
00:31:57,780 --> 00:32:03,240
have kind of their own special
status. So during when

515
00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:07,920
Ahmadinejad was in power, the
Revolutionary Guard, there was a

516
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:12,570
privatisation scheme that the
got underway. And the argies

517
00:32:12,570 --> 00:32:15,930
Revolutionary Guard came in in
possession really were control

518
00:32:15,930 --> 00:32:19,470
of a lot of important
organisations and economic

519
00:32:19,470 --> 00:32:24,630
power. They were given control
over border regions, the Secret

520
00:32:24,630 --> 00:32:28,290
Service, the Straits of Hormuz,
all the Revolutionary Guard, but

521
00:32:28,290 --> 00:32:32,250
also they had smuggling
networks, money laundering,

522
00:32:32,430 --> 00:32:37,950
really, proxy wars, that's what
this guy was doing. And he was

523
00:32:37,950 --> 00:32:42,750
the master of the proxy war
strategy, close ties to Putin.

524
00:32:44,190 --> 00:32:47,250
And, you know, which of course
ties into everything that

525
00:32:47,250 --> 00:32:51,540
happened in Syria. So this guy
in short, formidable force, the

526
00:32:51,540 --> 00:32:55,260
ad, you know, what they say
50,000 Troops, armed and trained

527
00:32:55,260 --> 00:32:58,710
shutting down the Gulf of
Hormuz, making a shoot down our

528
00:32:58,710 --> 00:33:03,300
own drones over the the Straits
of Hormuz, not the Gulf does the

529
00:33:03,300 --> 00:33:05,730
Straits of Hormuz, whether they
shut it down or we didn't

530
00:33:05,730 --> 00:33:11,010
doesn't make any difference. But
because of this, this guy is

531
00:33:11,010 --> 00:33:17,190
also a political force to be
reckoned for. And once companies

532
00:33:17,190 --> 00:33:21,870
started tweeting back at Trump
which we saw with with the so

533
00:33:21,870 --> 00:33:26,190
called breach of the of the
green zone and the embassy which

534
00:33:26,220 --> 00:33:29,760
you know, you and I this thing
is a fortress, you cannot get in

535
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:32,160
you can get in through the the
first wall if

536
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:36,150
you have the past and you only
get that far if they let you

537
00:33:36,180 --> 00:33:36,810
Yeah, you

538
00:33:36,810 --> 00:33:39,660
got to pass and you can come in
there were special forces there.

539
00:33:39,660 --> 00:33:42,810
I've pictures of special forces
there as that was taking place.

540
00:33:42,900 --> 00:33:46,860
No way. Was there any danger of
anything really happening. So

541
00:33:46,860 --> 00:33:50,820
that may have been part of a
setup. And I think when you see

542
00:33:50,820 --> 00:33:55,200
Khomeini and Trump tweeting back
and forth, well, we're gonna

543
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,950
kick your ass. Well, we'll kick
52 Are your assets for every one

544
00:33:58,950 --> 00:34:02,970
of those people you had in 1979?
Then I knew it. The show is on.

545
00:34:03,090 --> 00:34:07,290
Everything's determined. It's
all over. This was something

546
00:34:07,290 --> 00:34:13,110
that benefits how many It
benefits him to have this guy

547
00:34:13,110 --> 00:34:16,650
out of the way Trump has wanted
to have a deal with Iran. And

548
00:34:16,650 --> 00:34:19,920
now they're just playing playing
the game back and forth to make

549
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:25,350
it all look real. I think that
this may have even been done in

550
00:34:25,350 --> 00:34:28,500
cahoots with the mullahs and
then with Hong Kong,

551
00:34:28,529 --> 00:34:32,309
that's an interesting thesis
because if if it's true that he

552
00:34:32,309 --> 00:34:36,539
didn't want this sulemani to do
some plan, and so on. He's

553
00:34:36,539 --> 00:34:39,419
probably pretty much of an
independent contractor at this

554
00:34:39,419 --> 00:34:43,889
point. He could do it anyway.
Very much has to be taken out.

555
00:34:43,919 --> 00:34:48,809
Yes. So so that could have been
some back channel action saying

556
00:34:48,809 --> 00:34:50,909
yeah, it's okay. Why don't you
didn't blow up and we'll deal

557
00:34:50,909 --> 00:34:51,479
with it later.

558
00:34:51,510 --> 00:34:56,460
Now in mind you Soleimani was in
a rock. Let me just get my notes

559
00:34:56,460 --> 00:35:02,010
here. He was in Iraq because
there was bad Add blood with Al

560
00:35:02,010 --> 00:35:09,090
Amir al Amir is the leader of
the Baader party in Iraq. So

561
00:35:09,150 --> 00:35:13,140
there was already all kinds of
strife. And I think all Amir

562
00:35:13,140 --> 00:35:16,320
actually so Alamy were supposed
to have a meeting with

563
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:23,520
Soleimani. He cancels since his
deputy who also got iced in this

564
00:35:23,550 --> 00:35:27,510
in this drone strike. So, you
know, took out his own possible

565
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:33,600
political foe, or adversary
second in command in Iraq. You

566
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:37,740
know, I'm not gonna say Trump is
the genius mastermind behind

567
00:35:37,740 --> 00:35:42,780
this. I think it would be more
something that Khomeini himself

568
00:35:42,810 --> 00:35:47,520
came up with, but to me and
every Iranian you would speak

569
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:50,340
to, and I know many of them.
They always say the same thing

570
00:35:50,370 --> 00:35:56,100
up to Khomeini, and Americans
are all playing together to one

571
00:35:56,100 --> 00:36:00,570
big game and they know it, but
this guy who they got rid of, I

572
00:36:00,570 --> 00:36:02,760
think he may have been a real
problem and it may actually

573
00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:07,170
change things for the better a
deal could be possibly in the

574
00:36:07,170 --> 00:36:12,360
future. I certainly don't think
we're going to see anyone. No, I

575
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,520
don't think we're not gonna see
retaliation. We already had a

576
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:20,730
sorry ass, lame, fake news bull
crap. They hacked one of the

577
00:36:20,730 --> 00:36:23,790
United States government
websites. Did you see this?

578
00:36:24,150 --> 00:36:27,570
Yeah, of some, some division
I've never heard of.

579
00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:32,760
Like, there's a question that
has never been asked. Nobody

580
00:36:33,270 --> 00:36:37,350
ever crops up. I can't find the
answer to it. And it seems

581
00:36:37,350 --> 00:36:39,900
somewhat important is to
projected ces of the whole

582
00:36:39,900 --> 00:36:45,300
thing, which is, which is they
keep talking about the American

583
00:36:45,300 --> 00:36:48,090
contractor. Who was this guy?

584
00:36:49,140 --> 00:36:50,460
Yeah, that's a good question.

585
00:36:50,850 --> 00:36:55,410
Was he a CIA guy? Well, yeah.
You know, NSA guy, was he some

586
00:36:55,410 --> 00:36:58,980
bone hid from Bechdel? Three,
who was he? What's his name?

587
00:37:00,060 --> 00:37:02,790
Yeah, we don't know that. At
least I haven't found it. But

588
00:37:02,790 --> 00:37:07,170
30% of all activity is done by
contractors. This is why these a

589
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:11,460
holes love war, is because it's
commercial business. You know,

590
00:37:11,460 --> 00:37:15,270
there's big money. It's, it's
been completely outsourced. So

591
00:37:15,300 --> 00:37:19,170
before we continue, let me just
give you a few choice sound bits

592
00:37:19,170 --> 00:37:25,050
here of who people think will
get killed in retaliation, or

593
00:37:25,050 --> 00:37:28,290
who the possible targets could
be. Oh, yeah, we're gonna turn

594
00:37:28,290 --> 00:37:31,560
this into a really big super
shit show.

595
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:35,790
Yet previous US presidents when
given the opportunity to kill

596
00:37:35,790 --> 00:37:38,970
him passed on it because they
were fearful of what it would

597
00:37:39,030 --> 00:37:42,510
unleash. So what could the
consequences be this time?

598
00:37:42,720 --> 00:37:44,850
Well, this is the problem or we
don't know what you're

599
00:37:44,850 --> 00:37:48,480
absolutely right. previous
administrations certainly

600
00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:51,330
thought about may have had
opportunities, as they

601
00:37:51,330 --> 00:37:54,030
characterise that they passed on
those opportunities, because

602
00:37:54,030 --> 00:37:57,960
they didn't know how Iran would
respond. And it's dangerous

603
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:01,350
business for states to start
killing off each other's highest

604
00:38:01,350 --> 00:38:04,770
level leaders. We probably
wouldn't like it if the Iranians

605
00:38:04,770 --> 00:38:07,890
killed off someone like Mike
Pompeo is more or less

606
00:38:07,890 --> 00:38:10,620
equivalent to cost money in
their system.

607
00:38:10,860 --> 00:38:14,310
Okay, there's one vote for Mike
Pompeo. Let's go to Senator Tom

608
00:38:14,310 --> 00:38:14,940
Udall.

609
00:38:16,350 --> 00:38:21,450
And I think what the President
has done here, killing this

610
00:38:21,990 --> 00:38:29,130
major general, that is a part of
the Defence establishment in

611
00:38:29,790 --> 00:38:36,450
Iran is the same thing as if
they had attacked us and

612
00:38:36,450 --> 00:38:40,050
assassinated our Secretary of
Defence, oh, on a foreign trip

613
00:38:40,050 --> 00:38:47,010
someplace. This is getting us
into a very bad road and putting

614
00:38:47,010 --> 00:38:48,450
us on a very bad path.

615
00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:51,810
Secretary defence, of course, no
one knows Esper. So it wouldn't

616
00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,960
it wouldn't even make the second
page of the newspaper. Let's

617
00:38:55,290 --> 00:39:01,890
talk to the US, NATO Admiral
James Stavridis. potentially

618
00:39:01,890 --> 00:39:04,320
raising the stakes for American
military

619
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:07,860
planners, military to military,
how would you expect the

620
00:39:07,860 --> 00:39:09,630
Iranians would fare against the
US?

621
00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:14,460
They would fare badly that
cannot match us in conventional

622
00:39:14,460 --> 00:39:18,840
forces, but they are masters of
asymmetric warfare, the Iranians

623
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:23,490
may turn around and attempt the
same kind of activity against

624
00:39:23,490 --> 00:39:27,000
the US ambassador and say, Oh,
this was a proportional

625
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:27,780
operation.

626
00:39:27,930 --> 00:39:31,800
I got news for you. Nothing's
gonna happen. No retaliation.

627
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:39,150
This is a stupid show. And it's,
you know what this was even to

628
00:39:39,150 --> 00:39:46,230
some degree predicted. By our
buddy, hit, unfortunately, he's

629
00:39:46,230 --> 00:39:51,450
no longer with us is a big new
Brzezinski. The grand chess

630
00:39:51,450 --> 00:39:55,140
game, the architect, the master,
the man who knows all the man

631
00:39:55,140 --> 00:39:59,940
who fathered Mika Brzezinski,
and we're still pissed off about

632
00:39:59,940 --> 00:40:04,710
it. In 2008, he made the
following statement on the C

633
00:40:04,710 --> 00:40:09,390
span show about Iran's
relationship to the United

634
00:40:09,390 --> 00:40:13,290
States and Iran's relationship
with Iraq. So the three

635
00:40:13,290 --> 00:40:17,970
countries that are in play right
here, right now, Iran, Iraq, and

636
00:40:17,970 --> 00:40:18,930
the United States,

637
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:24,180
we can certainly take another
look at some recent historical

638
00:40:24,180 --> 00:40:29,520
experience. After 911, we
decided to go into Afghanistan,

639
00:40:30,300 --> 00:40:34,110
for obvious reasons, to
eliminate al Qaeda, which

640
00:40:34,110 --> 00:40:38,700
country was close to being most
helpful to us, when we undertook

641
00:40:38,700 --> 00:40:43,620
that task? Iran, this is
completely ignored. In any

642
00:40:43,620 --> 00:40:48,120
public discussion of Iran, which
is consistently painted as a

643
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:51,810
menacing enemy of the United
States. There are no friends of

644
00:40:51,810 --> 00:40:55,200
ours, I have no illusions about
that. But because of their own

645
00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:58,740
national interest, they chose to
be helpful to us in Afghanistan

646
00:40:58,890 --> 00:41:03,810
in a very significant way. Why
shouldn't they be helpful to us

647
00:41:03,810 --> 00:41:07,740
in Iraq, they have mixed
interests. They don't like the

648
00:41:07,740 --> 00:41:12,150
Iraqis Sunni Arabs, previous
rivals, but at the same time,

649
00:41:12,150 --> 00:41:15,630
they don't like our presence
there. I think we could discuss

650
00:41:15,660 --> 00:41:19,320
some arrangements in which
perhaps emphasise perhaps in

651
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:22,830
capital letters, we could reach
some understanding, but we'll

652
00:41:22,830 --> 00:41:26,250
never know the answer that
possibility unless we try. But

653
00:41:26,250 --> 00:41:29,850
there certainly is some
commonality of interest here in

654
00:41:29,850 --> 00:41:32,760
a stable Middle East. And let me
add one more dimension, which

655
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:36,780
should be of importance to most
Americans, we are in the midst

656
00:41:37,050 --> 00:41:41,370
of a growing energy crunch. Have
we spent any time publicly

657
00:41:41,370 --> 00:41:45,750
discussing what would be the
consequences for energy of an

658
00:41:45,750 --> 00:41:48,960
American uranium accommodation?
What would happen to the price

659
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:52,680
of oil? And there was this
dramatic increase in Iranian

660
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:56,610
flows? What will happen to the
objective of energy diversity

661
00:41:56,610 --> 00:42:01,410
for Europe? If Iranian oil and
gas could flow through Turkey,

662
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:04,980
to Europe, these are strategic
interests of ours, which are

663
00:42:04,980 --> 00:42:10,200
being completely ignored in a
kind of blind antagonism or the

664
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:11,310
self perpetuating.

665
00:42:11,940 --> 00:42:15,870
So there's all kinds of reasons
for us to be working with Iran

666
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:20,130
secretly, if it's important that
that's the most important part

667
00:42:20,130 --> 00:42:22,200
because Saudi Arabia has

668
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:28,140
been paid for a whole bunch of
reasons not just oil, something

669
00:42:28,140 --> 00:42:30,390
about religion, then the
disagree on stuff.

670
00:42:31,830 --> 00:42:35,610
And we were their pals. And we
have to, to the tune extreme,

671
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:41,730
you know, and we can't be doing
the bidding of Iran, which is

672
00:42:41,730 --> 00:42:47,040
what we had have done by basis
on the basis of your theory, by

673
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:50,970
blowing up this character who
they maybe want to dead, because

674
00:42:50,970 --> 00:42:52,980
he's getting to be uppity. He's,
well, he's

675
00:42:52,980 --> 00:42:56,970
very annoying. He's He's causing
a lot of what he's, he's he's a

676
00:42:56,970 --> 00:43:03,390
big dog on campus. So yeah, I
think that this is much more

677
00:43:03,390 --> 00:43:08,730
devious than then we're seeing a
definitely benefits Trump by

678
00:43:08,730 --> 00:43:11,280
getting everyone off of
impeachment, talking about

679
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:14,160
something else. And so there's
no doubt that that helps.

680
00:43:14,970 --> 00:43:20,730
The funny thing about Trump's
reputation, the right wing

681
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:25,350
talkers don't see it the way you
do, or I do for that matter,

682
00:43:25,350 --> 00:43:30,510
they see it as the following.
Obama, you know, he had a shot

683
00:43:30,510 --> 00:43:34,230
at this guy, he never took it
and Clinton could have killed

684
00:43:34,230 --> 00:43:39,210
Osama bin Laden. Two years
before 911. They had a shot at

685
00:43:39,210 --> 00:43:43,110
him and they wouldn't take it.
So everybody had these shots at

686
00:43:43,110 --> 00:43:45,840
these guys in history would have
been so much better if like, for

687
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:49,230
example, Clinton to killed Osama
bin Laden when he had the

688
00:43:49,230 --> 00:43:52,410
chance, of course, that doesn't
include the possibility that

689
00:43:52,410 --> 00:43:57,720
Osama bin Laden was working for
us all along. And you know,

690
00:43:57,720 --> 00:44:03,180
there may not even be dad. But
that's beside the point. Clinton

691
00:44:03,180 --> 00:44:05,880
had a shot at him didn't take
it. Obama wouldn't take his

692
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,250
shot. Even though Obama's
shooting everybody out of this,

693
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:11,910
you know, with this drone. Well,
let's kill this guy today. Yeah,

694
00:44:11,910 --> 00:44:12,120
well,

695
00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:15,810
he had the the kill list
Tuesday. He'll this But Trump

696
00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:19,320
Trump again, under Trump.
There's been more more drone

697
00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:24,240
killings, very disappointed in
all this. And then the top it

698
00:44:24,240 --> 00:44:28,290
off. Oh, I can't believe the
President said this.

699
00:44:29,310 --> 00:44:33,090
As President my highest and most
solemn duty is the defence of

700
00:44:33,090 --> 00:44:33,690
our nation.

701
00:44:37,050 --> 00:44:42,480
No, no, no. It is to defend,
uphold protect the Constitution.

702
00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:45,600
That is your oath that is your
highest order of business. That

703
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:54,300
is your duty. Oh, God, I despise
that. So it may you know what it

704
00:44:54,300 --> 00:44:59,340
will do for sure. Is set it set
the machine rolling. Everybody

705
00:44:59,340 --> 00:45:02,040
gets to tweet Eat everybody gets
to say something. You see what

706
00:45:02,100 --> 00:45:03,750
Rose McGowan said,

707
00:45:04,230 --> 00:45:07,950
Oh, she's nuts that woman dear
Iran, the USA

708
00:45:07,950 --> 00:45:12,840
has disrespected your country,
your flag your people. 52% of us

709
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:16,560
humbly apologise. She speaks on
behalf of 52% of the country

710
00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:20,100
apparently, we want peace with
your nation. We are being held

711
00:45:20,100 --> 00:45:25,620
hostage by a terrorist regime.
We do not know how to escape

712
00:45:25,620 --> 00:45:32,130
Please do not kill us. Wow, she
actually she issued an apology

713
00:45:32,130 --> 00:45:36,420
or not an apology, an
explanation of what she meant.

714
00:45:36,720 --> 00:45:38,280
And she did it in a video. I

715
00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:42,570
don't support Iran over America.
I want America to be better. I

716
00:45:42,570 --> 00:45:46,200
want rave to stop and I want
Harvey Weinstein to go to jail.

717
00:45:46,230 --> 00:45:50,520
See, she can't she can't let
that go. I'm not wrong. Like

718
00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:53,820
Trump errs and and right wingers
and they're like Hollywood's a

719
00:45:53,820 --> 00:45:57,720
bunch of fake liberals. Yeah,
they're not wrong. They aid and

720
00:45:57,720 --> 00:46:01,620
abet many, many criminals.
Here's the thing. I do not

721
00:46:01,620 --> 00:46:05,070
believe governments. I don't
believe Iran is government. I

722
00:46:05,070 --> 00:46:08,100
believe American government.
Clinton on the eve of his

723
00:46:08,100 --> 00:46:11,790
impeachment, launch rockets at
Rock. I mean, and this is the

724
00:46:11,790 --> 00:46:15,090
weirdest part. I became so
disenfranchised with the

725
00:46:15,090 --> 00:46:19,140
Democrats after learning the
extent knowing how closely

726
00:46:19,140 --> 00:46:22,170
Weinstein worked with the
Democratic Party for years how

727
00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:24,600
interlinked he was now he said
he was Hollywood's cult leader,

728
00:46:25,050 --> 00:46:28,800
but he was protected by the
Democratic Party, for sure. So I

729
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:31,140
grew so disenfranchised and
disgusted with them. And I'm

730
00:46:31,140 --> 00:46:34,410
somebody who like when I first
moved to America, when I was 10,

731
00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:37,500
I was handing out vote to caucus
cigarettes in little cellophane

732
00:46:37,500 --> 00:46:41,640
box to like, I would knock on
doors, like a cigarette vote to

733
00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:46,140
caucus. When I was 11. I was
handing out anti Iran pamphlets

734
00:46:46,230 --> 00:46:49,020
like opposing Sharia law and
their treatment of women and

735
00:46:49,020 --> 00:46:53,070
children around. I come from an
extremely political family and I

736
00:46:53,070 --> 00:46:56,490
was raised this way. Yeah, well,
she's cuckoo.

737
00:46:56,759 --> 00:47:02,579
And I don't think that made
anything better. For what she

738
00:47:02,579 --> 00:47:05,609
just said, because all she can
do is you know, then bring it

739
00:47:05,609 --> 00:47:09,809
around to herself and Weinstein,
et cetera. Colin Kaepernick

740
00:47:09,809 --> 00:47:13,829
Kaepernick tweets. There's
nothing new about American

741
00:47:13,829 --> 00:47:16,889
terrorist attacks against black
and brown people for the

742
00:47:16,889 --> 00:47:21,239
expansion of American
imperialism. America has always

743
00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:25,019
sanctioned and besieged black
and brown bodies both at home

744
00:47:25,019 --> 00:47:28,979
and abroad. American militarism
is the weapon wielded by

745
00:47:28,979 --> 00:47:32,909
American imperialism to enforce
its policing and plundering of

746
00:47:32,909 --> 00:47:39,299
the non white world? Thanks cap.
What an idiot, you know, he

747
00:47:39,299 --> 00:47:44,459
makes a mistake. It's brown
people who live in sandy areas,

748
00:47:44,489 --> 00:47:47,639
okay? It's not just brown people
universally, if you live in

749
00:47:47,669 --> 00:47:51,659
sand, and you're Brown, then you
got to watch your back. But

750
00:47:52,049 --> 00:47:59,069
these types of responses is
unhinged. And the whole thing is

751
00:47:59,100 --> 00:48:03,960
unconditional a problem again,
yeah. But the whole thing. And

752
00:48:04,170 --> 00:48:08,430
anyway, now there's a back and
forth between Steve Kerr who's

753
00:48:08,910 --> 00:48:15,210
condemning cance for being a
liar and then Trump's well.

754
00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:19,530
basketball guys it breezes right
back to your basketball analysis

755
00:48:19,530 --> 00:48:25,140
where we were that guy from
Memphis, one accused the entire

756
00:48:25,230 --> 00:48:27,270
NBA of being in China's pocket.

757
00:48:27,870 --> 00:48:32,940
Well, the tweet about that Pence
put put out there saying well,

758
00:48:32,940 --> 00:48:37,380
you know, this guy is related to
the 911 attacks. And fence is

759
00:48:37,380 --> 00:48:41,490
full of crap that was totally
ball crap is like yeah, they

760
00:48:41,490 --> 00:48:44,340
came from they came from Iran
now.

761
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:49,530
I don't understand where Pence
was. Well, Pence when he was

762
00:48:49,530 --> 00:48:51,570
allowed to make this this tweet,
and I

763
00:48:51,570 --> 00:48:53,940
think that if anyone's going to
make up some bullcrap

764
00:48:53,940 --> 00:48:57,990
retaliation list, put pence on
the top. He's the number two guy

765
00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:02,070
now he's the guy that should be
watching his back and yeah,

766
00:49:02,100 --> 00:49:06,660
whatever he was tweeting that
was not approved. He was not

767
00:49:06,660 --> 00:49:10,170
read in I don't know why he did
that. It makes no sense. Yeah,

768
00:49:10,170 --> 00:49:12,300
it was actually it made no
sense.

769
00:49:13,230 --> 00:49:15,630
Let us do Steve Kerr got to do
with it.

770
00:49:15,660 --> 00:49:18,930
Yeah, I was everybody's part of
the machine. If you're on

771
00:49:18,930 --> 00:49:21,210
television, if you have a
platform, you're part of the

772
00:49:21,210 --> 00:49:24,450
machine and this was the reddest
meat you can give the machine

773
00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:28,770
every everybody loves it. And
honestly, it's good for our

774
00:49:28,770 --> 00:49:30,960
show. We got to talk about
something different for a little

775
00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:35,820
bit. But what a piss poor
analysis from everybody just

776
00:49:37,050 --> 00:49:40,320
it's like it truly looks more
like wag the dog than any have

777
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:40,740
seen.

778
00:49:41,490 --> 00:49:46,800
Yes, very well. In fact, it
started with started with a

779
00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:50,760
shoot with the death of the
unknown contractor right, which

780
00:49:50,790 --> 00:49:52,890
is the dog ever since

781
00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:56,730
with the green zone with people
walking around with brand new

782
00:49:56,730 --> 00:50:03,000
flags lobbing Even the the so
called protesters were saying

783
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:05,730
lose these gas canisters
Americans are shooting at us is

784
00:50:05,730 --> 00:50:08,640
nothing. Because it wasn't
anything it was not intended to

785
00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:15,660
be anything. But I guess we'll
maybe we can crack down at the

786
00:50:15,660 --> 00:50:19,590
airports, maybe the TSA, I mean,
this is not over yet this this

787
00:50:19,590 --> 00:50:23,550
is just beginning. And I think
we'll see the security state

788
00:50:23,580 --> 00:50:26,490
getting all Jedi we've seen the
stocks are up, everybody loves

789
00:50:26,490 --> 00:50:30,060
that oil is gonna go up. It's
fantastic for everybody to

790
00:50:30,060 --> 00:50:31,860
skyrocket except for the short

791
00:50:31,860 --> 00:50:35,160
should because Iranian oil is
not even on the on the table.

792
00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:38,430
But they figured that well,
maybe this will escalate and

793
00:50:38,430 --> 00:50:40,680
it'll affect the other oil
producing regions.

794
00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:46,440
some historical context for this
very interest. We all know the

795
00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:49,530
Wesley Clark General Wesley
Clark, seven countries in five

796
00:50:49,530 --> 00:50:52,470
years clip, in fact, I'll play
it just so we can remember what

797
00:50:52,470 --> 00:50:53,310
it is seven

798
00:50:53,310 --> 00:50:57,330
countries in five years,
starting with Iraq, and then

799
00:50:57,330 --> 00:51:01,920
Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia,
Sudan and finishing off Iran.

800
00:51:01,950 --> 00:51:05,760
So these were the seven
countries that we were going to

801
00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:10,470
attack and five years after 911.
This was given to him in a in a

802
00:51:10,500 --> 00:51:11,790
verbal briefing.

803
00:51:13,350 --> 00:51:18,810
He handed him a sheet of paper.
It's the sheet of paper handed

804
00:51:18,810 --> 00:51:19,620
paperback, but he

805
00:51:19,620 --> 00:51:23,520
read the sheet of he tells it a
little differently in a new

806
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,340
version of the story, which I
have come into possession of

807
00:51:27,540 --> 00:51:31,650
this is it's a little different.
The sheet of paper was not the

808
00:51:31,650 --> 00:51:34,860
actual order. And I wanted to
play this clip, because it

809
00:51:34,860 --> 00:51:40,080
explains very clearly when this
really started and where this is

810
00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:42,570
all coming from and who the
players are that are involved.

811
00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:46,230
And that there's an entire
faction in the media, in

812
00:51:46,230 --> 00:51:48,630
academia in the middle, of
course, in the military

813
00:51:48,630 --> 00:51:52,410
industrial complex, and in the
US government who want this

814
00:51:52,410 --> 00:51:53,640
still today. And then

815
00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:55,920
I came back to the Pentagon
about six weeks later, I saw the

816
00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:59,550
same officer. I said, Why? Why
haven't we attacked Iraq, we

817
00:51:59,550 --> 00:52:01,530
still gonna attack Iraq? He
said, Oh, sorry. He says it's

818
00:52:01,530 --> 00:52:04,440
worse than that. He pulled up a
piece of paper off his desk

819
00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:06,840
because I just got this memo. He
didn't hand it to him. He's

820
00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:08,670
reading it to him and the
Secretary of Defense's office,

821
00:52:08,670 --> 00:52:11,970
it says we're going to attack
and destroy the governments in

822
00:52:11,970 --> 00:52:15,900
seven countries in five years.
We're going to start with Iraq.

823
00:52:15,900 --> 00:52:19,200
And then we're going to move to
Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia,

824
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:24,360
Sudan, and Iran. I seven, seven
countries in five years. I said

825
00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:29,010
it's in a classified memo. He
said, Yes, sir. I said, Well,

826
00:52:29,010 --> 00:52:31,080
don't show it to me. He was
about to show it to me sit

827
00:52:31,710 --> 00:52:32,040
there.

828
00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:35,010
And listen to listen to what he
says though. Listen to what he

829
00:52:35,010 --> 00:52:36,180
says why he doesn't want it.

830
00:52:36,210 --> 00:52:39,180
I seven, seven countries in five
years. I said, is that a

831
00:52:39,180 --> 00:52:44,130
classified memo? He said, Yes,
sir. I said, Well, don't show it

832
00:52:44,130 --> 00:52:46,260
to me. He was about to show it
to me. So because I want to talk

833
00:52:46,260 --> 00:52:46,590
about it.

834
00:52:46,770 --> 00:52:49,770
Apparently, if you haven't
actually seen the memo, then you

835
00:52:49,770 --> 00:52:52,110
haven't seen the classified
information? I guess.

836
00:52:54,330 --> 00:52:57,630
This is an interesting question.
Because this brought up the you

837
00:52:57,630 --> 00:53:00,840
know, the people in some people
in the intelligence community

838
00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:02,670
that can't look at WikiLeaks
have

839
00:53:02,670 --> 00:53:06,240
right? You can hear about it.
But you if you actually see it,

840
00:53:06,270 --> 00:53:09,270
see the actual document, then
you begin

841
00:53:09,750 --> 00:53:12,240
to see that this is a question
that somebody needs to answer

842
00:53:12,240 --> 00:53:15,420
for us, because we don't know
the answer to it. Which is,

843
00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:19,110
which is that you should be
praised as following. If you

844
00:53:19,110 --> 00:53:24,420
know something's top secret, and
but you don't know, but you've

845
00:53:24,420 --> 00:53:28,470
not seen a you have not
personally seen the memo, the

846
00:53:28,470 --> 00:53:31,800
top secret information, or
you've never been actually shown

847
00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:34,740
it right. But you know, it's top
secret because somebody told you

848
00:53:34,740 --> 00:53:38,310
it was and you're an in the in
the community. And

849
00:53:39,630 --> 00:53:44,070
can you talk about it? Well,
according to Clark here, yes.

850
00:53:44,100 --> 00:53:49,140
I seven said in five years, I
said, is that a classified memo?

851
00:53:49,650 --> 00:53:53,160
He said, Yes, sir. I said, Well,
don't show it to me. He was

852
00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:55,050
about to show it to me. So
because I want to talk about it.

853
00:53:55,530 --> 00:53:58,320
And I couldn't believe it would
really be true. But that's

854
00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:02,010
actually what happened. These
people took control of the

855
00:54:02,010 --> 00:54:07,170
policy in the United States. And
I realised then it came back to

856
00:54:07,170 --> 00:54:11,580
me a 1991 meeting I had with
Paul Wolfowitz, you know, in

857
00:54:11,580 --> 00:54:15,450
2001, he was Deputy Secretary of
Defence, but in 1991, he was the

858
00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:18,180
undersecretary of defence for
policy to number three position

859
00:54:18,180 --> 00:54:21,780
in the Pentagon. So I called and
up there, he was available. And

860
00:54:21,780 --> 00:54:27,060
he brought me in and I said to
Paul, I said, and this is 1991.

861
00:54:27,060 --> 00:54:29,610
I said, Mr. Secretary, you must
be pretty happy with the

862
00:54:29,610 --> 00:54:34,170
performance of the troops and
Desert Storm. And he said, Well,

863
00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:37,290
yeah, he said, but but not
really. He said, Because the

864
00:54:37,290 --> 00:54:40,020
truth is, we should have gotten
rid of Saddam Hussein, and we

865
00:54:40,020 --> 00:54:43,500
didn't. He said, but one thing
we did learn, he said, we

866
00:54:43,500 --> 00:54:47,100
learned that we can use our
military in the region in the

867
00:54:47,100 --> 00:54:50,820
Middle East, and the Soviets
won't stop us. He said, and

868
00:54:50,820 --> 00:54:54,720
we've got about five or 10 years
to clean up those old Soviet

869
00:54:54,720 --> 00:55:01,590
client regimes. Syria, Iran,
Iraq. Before the next great

870
00:55:01,590 --> 00:55:04,920
superpower comes on to
challenges, it was a pretty

871
00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:08,190
stunning thing. You mean, the
purpose of the military is to

872
00:55:08,190 --> 00:55:11,310
start wars and change
governments. It's not to sort of

873
00:55:11,310 --> 00:55:15,090
deter conflict. We're going to
invade countries and I, you

874
00:55:15,090 --> 00:55:21,240
know, my mind was spinning. This
country was taken over by a

875
00:55:21,240 --> 00:55:27,690
group of people with a policy
coup Wolfowitz, and Cheney and

876
00:55:27,690 --> 00:55:33,600
Rumsfeld. And you could name a
half dozen other collaborators

877
00:55:33,600 --> 00:55:37,740
from the project for New
American Century, they wanted us

878
00:55:37,860 --> 00:55:43,680
to destabilise the Middle East,
turn it upside down, make it

879
00:55:43,710 --> 00:55:45,420
under our control.

880
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:51,000
And that's what's going on here
to this day still, with these

881
00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:53,040
jag offs, who do this stuff?

882
00:55:55,530 --> 00:55:59,190
Well, that's interesting. If we
take a look, let's try to re and

883
00:55:59,220 --> 00:56:02,790
analyse the idea that this
sulamani guy had to be taken out

884
00:56:02,790 --> 00:56:07,080
because he was working against
those interests. Because he was

885
00:56:07,920 --> 00:56:12,570
it, he would have led to the
possibility because what we do

886
00:56:12,570 --> 00:56:15,810
the real proof in the pudding of
the pudding, whatever of some

887
00:56:15,810 --> 00:56:21,000
other pudding is, is whether or
not at the end of this whole

888
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:24,510
series of events. Iran gets
realised or not,

889
00:56:24,900 --> 00:56:29,010
oh, yeah, I guarantee you is not
going to happen. Guaranteed it's

890
00:56:29,010 --> 00:56:33,390
not going to happen. What
happened here is someone went

891
00:56:33,390 --> 00:56:37,830
too far. If you kill American
boys and girls in the military,

892
00:56:37,920 --> 00:56:40,770
okay, that's just that's just
what happens. You kill a

893
00:56:40,770 --> 00:56:44,040
contractor, like part of an
American business, and now we're

894
00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:47,610
pissed off. That's what I'm
seeing. That's what I'm seeing.

895
00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:53,190
This is disgusting. Like what
you heard in that company now,

896
00:56:53,190 --> 00:56:56,040
this is bottom line stuff. No,
no, no, no, we can't have that.

897
00:56:57,360 --> 00:57:03,960
So now how complicit Trump was
in this, I don't know. He was at

898
00:57:03,960 --> 00:57:09,690
Mar a Lago behind closed doors.
The press pool didn't see him

899
00:57:09,690 --> 00:57:15,150
come in or out really while it
is during the the New Year's

900
00:57:15,150 --> 00:57:18,840
celebration and thereafter. So
he might have been a big part of

901
00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:19,080
it.

902
00:57:19,470 --> 00:57:22,290
I don't notice that the reports
that I have, but I still have a

903
00:57:22,290 --> 00:57:25,110
lot of clips, which we don't
have to play now. I'm interested

904
00:57:25,110 --> 00:57:28,890
if there's anything good was
mentioned of Trump during the

905
00:57:28,890 --> 00:57:30,390
whole thing playing golf.

906
00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:33,240
I thought that that was eating
ice cream again, wasn't the

907
00:57:33,330 --> 00:57:35,520
question that the report he is
it

908
00:57:36,420 --> 00:57:40,230
is playing golf, but he did
playing the golf didn't match

909
00:57:40,230 --> 00:57:43,560
the timeline. Because generally
speaking plays golf in the

910
00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:47,250
morning, when while we're doing
our show, right. And this

911
00:57:47,250 --> 00:57:52,590
happened later. It was in the
early morning in over there, but

912
00:57:52,590 --> 00:57:55,470
he wouldn't be playing golf
after guts gets dark. Nobody

913
00:57:55,470 --> 00:57:57,990
plays golf at night. You lose
the ball.

914
00:57:59,790 --> 00:58:04,590
Yeah, it's not a great time to
play golf. Yeah, I don't I don't

915
00:58:04,590 --> 00:58:10,080
know how complicit he was. But
just looking at the show that's

916
00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:15,330
unfolding. Look, this is the 20
this is 21st century warfare.

917
00:58:15,330 --> 00:58:19,770
This is 21st century stuff that
we're used to it, hear Trump

918
00:58:19,770 --> 00:58:24,840
tweeting around but whatever.
But for home for home, you need

919
00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:29,880
to tweet back, Doc, that was
that was the tell for me. That's

920
00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:34,890
like, okay, he's like, hey, hey,
Khomeini guy listen up. Tweet

921
00:58:34,890 --> 00:58:37,890
back at me man. Come on, clap
back I'm gonna say something you

922
00:58:37,890 --> 00:58:40,440
say something and then we'll
talk about stuff and you

923
00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:44,760
threaten all threatened. And
meanwhile, let's work on a deal.

924
00:58:44,760 --> 00:58:49,050
Man's work on a deal works out
mild. You stay in power, you

925
00:58:49,050 --> 00:58:54,810
stay big. I think the analysis
my analysis is clear, but

926
00:58:55,620 --> 00:59:00,180
complete Wag the Dog scenario.
And we'll see how long the media

927
00:59:00,180 --> 00:59:00,930
can run with it.

928
00:59:01,470 --> 00:59:03,810
So they'll take it as long as
they don't don't try to scare

929
00:59:03,810 --> 00:59:06,120
the public as best they can.
Well, now the

930
00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:08,760
problem is for them it's
detracting from impeachment

931
00:59:08,760 --> 00:59:10,800
talk. So there are agendas here
at home on

932
00:59:11,940 --> 00:59:16,650
their hand wringing over this.
More we talk about this is going

933
00:59:16,650 --> 00:59:21,180
to make Trump look good. Can't
have that. There's no doubt

934
00:59:21,180 --> 00:59:25,080
about that on my mind. Now,
let's play this. This is does

935
00:59:25,110 --> 00:59:28,290
Amy she gave her now she goes on
and on with a very long

936
00:59:28,290 --> 00:59:32,190
explanation of everything. But
she does bring this guy on to

937
00:59:32,190 --> 00:59:35,550
discuss it. They never bring
anybody on to death balance. It

938
00:59:35,550 --> 00:59:38,820
brings some socialists on. But
they didn't bring this guy on. I

939
00:59:38,820 --> 00:59:41,940
just want to play a little bit
of this. He's from the Quincy

940
00:59:41,970 --> 00:59:45,300
Institute which some new Think
Tank and by the way, this is

941
00:59:45,300 --> 00:59:49,230
where you make money. these
think tanks just get a bunch of

942
00:59:49,230 --> 00:59:51,630
money in this case, I don't know
who he gets the money from but

943
00:59:51,630 --> 00:59:55,350
or he or him and the Quincy
Institute. Do you name it after

944
00:59:55,350 --> 00:59:59,700
some, like have some Founding
Fathers kind of name Quincy,

945
00:59:59,700 --> 01:00:03,540
John Quincy Adams. So you give
it some name like that the

946
01:00:03,540 --> 01:00:04,170
Hamilton.

947
01:00:04,710 --> 01:00:08,970
Yeah, you use that or you put
the word freedom in there. Yeah,

948
01:00:08,970 --> 01:00:12,330
freedom, freedom, heritage.

949
01:00:12,990 --> 01:00:15,660
It's all good. All good. So this
guy comes down. He's got

950
01:00:15,660 --> 01:00:18,060
absolutely nothing to tell us
except he just doesn't like

951
01:00:18,060 --> 01:00:18,480
Trump.

952
01:00:18,600 --> 01:00:21,780
Welcome to Democracy Now. Trita
Parsi your response to the

953
01:00:21,780 --> 01:00:24,210
assassination of Suleimani.

954
01:00:24,420 --> 01:00:29,700
I think a couple of former Obama
officials on TV yesterday put it

955
01:00:29,700 --> 01:00:33,750
best when they said that this is
an act of war. It's an act of

956
01:00:33,750 --> 01:00:38,460
war that took place without any
consultation with Congress, any

957
01:00:38,460 --> 01:00:41,220
approval from Congress, any
thought authorization from

958
01:00:41,220 --> 01:00:44,130
Congress, it's fascinating to
see that the last couple of

959
01:00:44,130 --> 01:00:48,210
days, Pompeo has been spending a
lot of time talking to the

960
01:00:48,210 --> 01:00:50,880
foreign ministers and the
leaders of Saudi Arabia, the

961
01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:55,050
UAE, and Israel, and not until
today that he actually start

962
01:00:55,050 --> 01:00:58,890
making phone calls to the
Europeans and others. So this is

963
01:00:58,890 --> 01:01:02,340
something that is going to be a
major point of escalation. It's

964
01:01:02,340 --> 01:01:05,820
a decision that I think
ultimately has made America less

965
01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:09,450
rather than more safe. I think
that's clear from the decision

966
01:01:09,450 --> 01:01:12,330
by the State Department today to
urge all Americans to

967
01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:17,130
immediately leave Iraq. Rather
than ending these endless wars

968
01:01:17,130 --> 01:01:20,550
that Trump promised his base
that he would do. He's sending

969
01:01:20,550 --> 01:01:23,040
more troops to the Middle East,
he's doing things that is

970
01:01:23,040 --> 01:01:26,040
further destabilising the Middle
East. And that will probably

971
01:01:26,040 --> 01:01:29,790
trap American service when men
and women in the Middle East for

972
01:01:29,940 --> 01:01:31,290
a longer period of time.

973
01:01:32,520 --> 01:01:36,660
So we have the same memes over
and over from all the reporters

974
01:01:36,660 --> 01:01:40,950
and from every analyst on this
side of the water, that it makes

975
01:01:40,950 --> 01:01:45,060
us less safe. And Congress
wasn't consulted. That's it.

976
01:01:47,790 --> 01:01:52,320
That's all they got told the guy
wasn't consulted. And as you

977
01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:55,500
pointed out, and everybody
really knows this. Congress

978
01:01:55,500 --> 01:01:59,370
doesn't need to be supported, or
I'm sorry, informed about a

979
01:01:59,370 --> 01:02:03,450
drone hit on someone. No. When
Have they ever been informed of

980
01:02:03,450 --> 01:02:06,780
it? When Obama had his hitless?
Was he calling Congress I'm

981
01:02:06,780 --> 01:02:09,390
saying what do you think Nancy?
Should I kill this guy at the

982
01:02:09,390 --> 01:02:09,870
wedding?

983
01:02:10,140 --> 01:02:14,340
We went into Syria without a
declaration of war. Come on

984
01:02:14,340 --> 01:02:18,270
this. I mean, but that's, that's
just grasping at straws, but

985
01:02:18,270 --> 01:02:21,510
more importantly, did I hear you
say that there's real money in

986
01:02:21,510 --> 01:02:24,360
these think tanks? Is that
possibly the exit strategy we

987
01:02:24,360 --> 01:02:25,380
should be looking at?

988
01:02:26,730 --> 01:02:29,490
There's real money in these
think tanks. If you're if you if

989
01:02:29,490 --> 01:02:32,970
you know how to manage one. The
you have to have we need if

990
01:02:32,970 --> 01:02:35,640
somebody out there who could do
grantsmanship

991
01:02:35,670 --> 01:02:39,360
so I think we should have the
curry Dvorak Lincoln Washington

992
01:02:39,360 --> 01:02:45,480
Consortium. So just think so.
That sound official consort

993
01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:49,920
Consortium. Group. What do we
need curry? DeVore at Lincoln

994
01:02:49,950 --> 01:02:54,270
Washington. Con fab. No, I'm
looking for the right link

995
01:02:54,270 --> 01:02:56,550
in Washington. Just a good
beginning. We like Korean

996
01:02:56,550 --> 01:02:57,780
Devorah. Who are those guys?

997
01:02:57,810 --> 01:03:00,300
So just put Lincoln Washington
consulting?

998
01:03:00,930 --> 01:03:04,470
Washington, Lincoln, Lincoln,
Washington. Yeah. Lincoln

999
01:03:04,470 --> 01:03:07,770
Washington was throwing, she had
to write you'd have focus groups

1000
01:03:07,770 --> 01:03:08,220
as baby

1001
01:03:08,250 --> 01:03:10,830
can we put it would just throw
JFK in there for good measure.

1002
01:03:10,830 --> 01:03:14,400
Lincoln, JFK. He's out. He's
out. Okay, so the I think the

1003
01:03:14,400 --> 01:03:17,520
Lincoln Washington Consulting
Group.

1004
01:03:18,360 --> 01:03:22,110
Yeah. Okay. might work. Lincoln
Washington. Who's Lincoln, who's

1005
01:03:22,110 --> 01:03:26,010
Washington? Well, you know, we
have to we have to wait his

1006
01:03:26,010 --> 01:03:26,490
president.

1007
01:03:27,180 --> 01:03:30,450
Father, how about strategic
strategy group that's better.

1008
01:03:31,260 --> 01:03:33,990
Lincoln Lincoln Washington
Strategy Group.

1009
01:03:34,770 --> 01:03:37,200
People can watch this in real
time as we develop this.

1010
01:03:37,740 --> 01:03:41,010
And with that, I'd like to thank
you very much for your courage

1011
01:03:41,010 --> 01:03:44,040
and say in the morning to you
the man who put the sea in the

1012
01:03:44,040 --> 01:03:48,510
Lincoln Washington strategy
consulting group, John C.

1013
01:03:48,510 --> 01:03:49,890
Devorah. back

1014
01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:51,870
Wednesday morning to you Mr.
Graham Korean and more his trip

1015
01:03:51,870 --> 01:03:54,030
to see Bucha grafitti ourselves
no one are all the names

1016
01:03:55,980 --> 01:03:58,410
was quite a stretch in the
morning to the trolls and the

1017
01:03:58,410 --> 01:04:01,500
troll room. No agenda stream.com
is where we love to see you

1018
01:04:01,500 --> 01:04:06,900
hanging out on our live show
days currently 1376 trolls on

1019
01:04:06,900 --> 01:04:11,370
the stream. We know why? Because
it's a big day. We had an event

1020
01:04:11,370 --> 01:04:13,830
on the show day and the next
show day we break it down. I

1021
01:04:13,830 --> 01:04:18,810
think we've delivered at least a
reasonable deconstruction of

1022
01:04:18,810 --> 01:04:21,510
what is taking place here.
Certainly better than the

1023
01:04:21,540 --> 01:04:24,990
amygdala enlarging crap you're
going to get on the main stream

1024
01:04:24,990 --> 01:04:29,820
media. In the coming week, we're
coming days or coming weeks. So

1025
01:04:29,820 --> 01:04:33,570
trolls hanging out in the troll
room to feed us information to

1026
01:04:33,570 --> 01:04:36,270
throw out one liners and
basically to troll the host of

1027
01:04:36,270 --> 01:04:39,810
any show that's playing live on
the stream, which is 24 hours a

1028
01:04:39,810 --> 01:04:42,780
day, seven days a week. Check it
out for yourself no agenda

1029
01:04:42,780 --> 01:04:46,260
stream.com Also a big in the
morning to the artists who

1030
01:04:46,260 --> 01:04:49,530
brought us the artwork for
episode 1204. We titled that one

1031
01:04:49,530 --> 01:04:52,980
hunt the Wumpus if you don't
know what that means, and you

1032
01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:58,020
didn't listen to the show, and
it was I think by far the best

1033
01:04:58,020 --> 01:05:01,050
popping piece of art it was
thought of bout it was a nice

1034
01:05:01,050 --> 01:05:06,360
piece comic strip blogger
returns with the artwork for the

1035
01:05:06,360 --> 01:05:10,350
album artwork for episode 1204.
This was the the it was a

1036
01:05:10,350 --> 01:05:14,160
concept piece it was the jail
because someone hanging on to

1037
01:05:14,160 --> 01:05:17,850
the bars of a prison with
Chinese fireworks. And it was

1038
01:05:17,850 --> 01:05:21,150
Chinese because it made look the
stars look like the Chinese.

1039
01:05:21,330 --> 01:05:23,970
Yeah, I was dining, my whole
thing was nice. It was it was a

1040
01:05:23,970 --> 01:05:28,350
very good piece. And comic strip
blogger kicks off the new year

1041
01:05:28,350 --> 01:05:33,750
with the first win for artwork.
You can find all of the entries

1042
01:05:34,110 --> 01:05:38,220
there already stacking up as we
speak. Artists like that they

1043
01:05:38,220 --> 01:05:41,880
kind of have to listen to the
show in real time to make put

1044
01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:44,700
this art together. Because right
after the show, once we're done

1045
01:05:48,030 --> 01:05:49,140
once you have a blog,

1046
01:05:50,160 --> 01:05:54,300
once we're done, we choose the
art pretty much within 1015

1047
01:05:54,300 --> 01:05:57,180
minutes depending on you know,
whatever things we're doing to

1048
01:05:57,180 --> 01:06:00,300
get the to ship the show out the
door. No agenda art

1049
01:06:00,300 --> 01:06:03,660
generator.com. And there still
seems to be some issues with

1050
01:06:03,660 --> 01:06:06,600
people signing up. They don't
get their sign up emails. And

1051
01:06:06,600 --> 01:06:12,150
I've sent another email to us or
Paul couture about this. So it

1052
01:06:12,150 --> 01:06:14,850
seems like it's kind of hit or
miss people who are able to sign

1053
01:06:14,850 --> 01:06:16,230
up and control the whole thing

1054
01:06:16,230 --> 01:06:17,400
is falling apart.

1055
01:06:17,670 --> 01:06:22,170
I hope not internet. The it's
the microservices of the no

1056
01:06:22,170 --> 01:06:25,050
agenda show that are falling
apart. And boy are we built on

1057
01:06:25,050 --> 01:06:28,440
microservices, we barely run
anything ourselves. It's all

1058
01:06:28,440 --> 01:06:31,410
part of our value for value
network, which is the great

1059
01:06:31,410 --> 01:06:35,850
thing about the briefings I have
received clips, producer notes

1060
01:06:35,850 --> 01:06:38,760
personal experience. It's
because the people who listen

1061
01:06:38,790 --> 01:06:42,870
are the producers, and many of
them check in every single show

1062
01:06:42,870 --> 01:06:45,540
as an executive producer or an
Associate Executive Producer

1063
01:06:45,540 --> 01:06:48,570
because they supported us
financially. And we'd like to

1064
01:06:48,570 --> 01:06:51,060
thank some of these people now
we think we have the whole list.

1065
01:06:51,360 --> 01:06:55,920
Eric the shield was back in at
Tumbleweed terror in the Pacific

1066
01:06:55,920 --> 01:06:59,340
Northwest and is now is this a
storm that's going on that their

1067
01:06:59,340 --> 01:07:00,630
power keeps going out of there

1068
01:07:00,630 --> 01:07:02,640
wind storms wind storm

1069
01:07:03,090 --> 01:07:05,970
is this. I've heard I've not
heard of this happening.

1070
01:07:06,270 --> 01:07:08,160
Well that's what happened with
the tumbleweeds and

1071
01:07:08,190 --> 01:07:11,400
no I mean it's happened twice in
a week but is this something

1072
01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:12,900
historically that takes place

1073
01:07:12,900 --> 01:07:17,940
and whether you this what
bothers me about you? Me? Yeah,

1074
01:07:18,570 --> 01:07:23,280
we have the fires in Australia
we have these crazy wind storms

1075
01:07:23,280 --> 01:07:28,230
that make no sense and not once
not once have you brought up the

1076
01:07:28,230 --> 01:07:36,180
idea of a weather machine I've
been waiting

1077
01:07:36,270 --> 01:07:41,370
it's not it's well I call it as
I see it. Australia is clearly

1078
01:07:41,370 --> 01:07:44,340
the arsonist who they just knock
on their door and say hey time

1079
01:07:44,340 --> 01:07:48,150
to go and I don't know what's
going on with Eric the shill

1080
01:07:48,750 --> 01:07:51,480
who had a wind the wind was in
the wind is a problem in

1081
01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:56,940
Australia too. Well I mean the
reason those fires rotted

1082
01:07:56,940 --> 01:07:59,550
controlled because of the wind
and when we had these fires in

1083
01:07:59,550 --> 01:08:02,790
California recently the paradise
fire and all the other ones last

1084
01:08:02,790 --> 01:08:06,330
year the year before there was a
it was all wind based and that

1085
01:08:06,330 --> 01:08:09,750
the wind now they're shutting
down our power and in pg&e shuts

1086
01:08:09,750 --> 01:08:13,170
down the power of the wind
window. Like we never have wind

1087
01:08:13,170 --> 01:08:17,400
before. Just wind all those new
wind I'm sorry,

1088
01:08:17,400 --> 01:08:21,240
I was focused on the wag the dog
from the WAG to the wind. I'll

1089
01:08:21,240 --> 01:08:25,230
take note I'll work on it. I
feel like a bad crackpot.

1090
01:08:25,320 --> 01:08:28,440
I've been waiting and waiting
and waiting so I had to bring it

1091
01:08:28,440 --> 01:08:30,390
up national I looked like a nut
ball.

1092
01:08:31,920 --> 01:08:34,020
Let's thank some of our
executive producers.

1093
01:08:34,230 --> 01:08:40,740
I was sure Obi Wan Obi Wan of
week of week a pug? I guess it

1094
01:08:40,740 --> 01:08:48,690
Dan, he came in with the $371.20
and he sends us a copy of war

1095
01:08:48,690 --> 01:08:49,920
and peace. Thank you.

1096
01:08:50,070 --> 01:08:52,650
Well we can skip some of this.

1097
01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:55,620
Well it says Happy New Year's
podcast been top notch recently

1098
01:08:55,620 --> 01:08:58,950
you recently inspired me to
raise my daughters to be as woke

1099
01:08:59,220 --> 01:09:02,340
no agenda which is different.
It's very different woke very

1100
01:09:02,340 --> 01:09:08,010
different woke my wife, who is a
mere $150 away from being named

1101
01:09:08,010 --> 01:09:12,180
Cara of weekapaug gave birth in
November to our second little

1102
01:09:12,180 --> 01:09:16,650
girl she's healthy as can be.
And we could use some new baby

1103
01:09:16,650 --> 01:09:20,970
goat karma to keep the journey
smooth exit. Yes.

1104
01:09:21,300 --> 01:09:26,400
Now if you send in a lot of
stuff about DNA testing as

1105
01:09:26,400 --> 01:09:32,040
specifically 23 in me I will
read this part as part of my

1106
01:09:32,040 --> 01:09:36,450
effort to keep my girls woke.
I've decided to drop the letter

1107
01:09:36,450 --> 01:09:40,080
T from their lives entirely. I
figured this will only get them

1108
01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:42,720
ahead in life as they grow into
society that's slowly

1109
01:09:42,720 --> 01:09:46,110
eliminating one of our letters
from existence. I have been busy

1110
01:09:46,140 --> 01:09:49,260
waiting out the T's and all
their books and on all toys. We

1111
01:09:49,260 --> 01:09:52,470
completely cut out the burnt and
burnt the T section of the

1112
01:09:52,470 --> 01:09:55,950
dictionary and the T edition of
Encyclopaedia Britannica. It

1113
01:09:55,950 --> 01:09:59,910
sleeps with the fishes you with
me. Yes. And suddenly it goes to

1114
01:09:59,910 --> 01:10:03,210
the whole thing about how some
people have had wonderful

1115
01:10:03,210 --> 01:10:07,770
experiences, experiences,
experiences, with 23andme

1116
01:10:07,770 --> 01:10:10,680
Finding out that their family
was not their family, but they

1117
01:10:10,680 --> 01:10:13,710
got a new family. I don't know.
I don't like surprises like

1118
01:10:13,710 --> 01:10:19,980
that, personally. For me to say,
and he signs off with a note to

1119
01:10:19,980 --> 01:10:23,130
the two of us, as it will be
written in my house. He says

1120
01:10:23,130 --> 01:10:29,640
From this day forward, he really
is her best podcast in her

1121
01:10:29,670 --> 01:10:33,930
universe. Keep up her good work.
You see, he's dropping all the

1122
01:10:33,930 --> 01:10:41,310
T's Wow, he wants the baby goat
human resource karma. You've got

1123
01:10:42,900 --> 01:10:43,410
karma.

1124
01:10:44,970 --> 01:10:50,520
Mr. Reader's Digest from now on.
Good work. Sir. Mad Hatter Baron

1125
01:10:50,520 --> 01:10:55,170
of the broke state of
Connecticut. Of the Connecticut

1126
01:10:55,170 --> 01:11:01,800
gents, I guess 333 33 refer to
me on it. Okay, Baron. Um, yeah.

1127
01:11:02,130 --> 01:11:05,520
The show continues to be the
only beacon of sanity in a world

1128
01:11:05,520 --> 01:11:10,980
full of M five M bull poop. But
alas, donated I mentioned I was

1129
01:11:10,980 --> 01:11:13,920
involved in one of the current
Democrats running for president.

1130
01:11:14,400 --> 01:11:18,630
I got quite a chuckle at how
both of you went right into the

1131
01:11:18,630 --> 01:11:23,190
gutter. I should have specified
I was involved with the campaign

1132
01:11:23,190 --> 01:11:27,570
not the candidate that said I
will again request job karma

1133
01:11:27,570 --> 01:11:32,940
it's working. When my wife Dame
Jamie made an unsolicited

1134
01:11:32,940 --> 01:11:35,730
request for jobs calm I got an
interview request out of the

1135
01:11:35,730 --> 01:11:39,840
blue. When I made my last
donation I got a follow up for a

1136
01:11:39,840 --> 01:11:43,710
second round January 6, I did an
interview with the CTO hiring

1137
01:11:43,710 --> 01:11:46,980
manager and I want to make sure
that the karma is fresh.

1138
01:11:48,060 --> 01:11:55,920
Remember, and remember me with a
new job. What? And remember

1139
01:11:55,920 --> 01:11:58,440
Dhanu jammies I condition on the
campaign without fear of

1140
01:11:58,440 --> 01:12:01,920
consequence. As always, keep up
the great work deconstruct the

1141
01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:07,890
am 5am Jingle requests don't eat
me. Don't eat bowl Biden. Oreos

1142
01:12:07,890 --> 01:12:11,700
are more addictive than cocaine
and any combination of Rev L and

1143
01:12:11,700 --> 01:12:15,900
Manny and a show request. Ring
doorbell hack song

1144
01:12:15,930 --> 01:12:18,240
bait, sir Mad Hatter, would you
like me to come to your house

1145
01:12:18,240 --> 01:12:21,720
and scratch your back? Anything
else you'd like me to do? Hey,

1146
01:12:22,950 --> 01:12:26,820
Dad in your school. Oreos are
just as

1147
01:12:26,820 --> 01:12:28,230
addictive as cocaine

1148
01:12:28,530 --> 01:12:35,610
showed a money shot. That's a
money shot. Kevin Conway is a

1149
01:12:35,610 --> 01:12:43,410
money shot. ESP IICT jobs,

1150
01:12:43,590 --> 01:12:46,170
jobs, jobs and jobs.

1151
01:12:46,200 --> 01:12:51,060
Let's vote for job. Karma.

1152
01:12:52,740 --> 01:12:56,580
I want to make a note for people
out there that donors especially

1153
01:12:56,580 --> 01:13:00,570
in this category, the highest
category? And actually all of us

1154
01:13:00,570 --> 01:13:05,850
that unless I mean, it's first
of all, the end of the show is

1155
01:13:05,850 --> 01:13:10,590
typically sacrosanct and pre
produced by Adam in advance of

1156
01:13:10,590 --> 01:13:15,120
the show. Thank you. So slopping
in a request for something at

1157
01:13:15,120 --> 01:13:17,550
the end of the show usually
doesn't work.

1158
01:13:18,120 --> 01:13:21,150
Usually, especially since we
played this one on the last show

1159
01:13:21,150 --> 01:13:22,890
at the end of show. Yeah.

1160
01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:27,330
So don't don't push into the end
of the show. Because that is

1161
01:13:27,450 --> 01:13:32,250
it's it changes things
drastically. John is not it's

1162
01:13:32,250 --> 01:13:34,560
not something that we've
normally done. It's only been

1163
01:13:34,560 --> 01:13:36,480
recently appealed. We've been
putting stuff at the end and

1164
01:13:36,690 --> 01:13:39,810
Adam tries to get it in lots of
times. He's simply forgotten. I

1165
01:13:39,810 --> 01:13:42,540
always write him about it,
because he promises to do it.

1166
01:13:42,540 --> 01:13:48,420
But it's better not to request
end of show stuff. It's yeah. I

1167
01:13:48,420 --> 01:13:50,910
mean, with 2500 bucks,
obviously, you know, we'll

1168
01:13:50,910 --> 01:13:53,910
probably move to the front of
the line. But that's

1169
01:13:55,110 --> 01:13:58,110
gonna come to your house. I'm
gonna bring my boombox and play

1170
01:13:58,110 --> 01:14:00,030
the entire show for you in front
of your house.

1171
01:14:00,540 --> 01:14:04,200
But generally speaking, it
interferes with the way the show

1172
01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:08,490
is structured a little bit.
Yeah, thank you. Not always but

1173
01:14:08,490 --> 01:14:09,270
sometimes what

1174
01:14:09,270 --> 01:14:11,910
Sir Mad Hatter Baron of the
broke state of Connecticut. Jen,

1175
01:14:11,910 --> 01:14:15,540
thank you for your support for
your production and for your

1176
01:14:15,540 --> 01:14:16,500
courage of course.

agenda famine for 2020 from my

1179

Please give me a crazy train guy

1180

Pivot. Pivot I tell you into

1182
01:14:42,360 --> 01:14:45,750
Jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs.

1183
01:14:45,870 --> 01:14:47,400
Let's go for jobs

1184
01:14:53,100 --> 01:14:59,790
Sam Leung in Toronto, Ontario
333 33 ITM gents consider this

1185
01:14:59,790 --> 01:15:04,170
account. contribution to Adam
and Tina's fund to tour John

1186
01:15:04,170 --> 01:15:12,960
studio. Hopefully it'll cover
some of Adams breach of the non

1187
01:15:13,740 --> 01:15:16,410
non denigration agreement. It
was as well.

1188
01:15:16,439 --> 01:15:20,549
Well, I I've gotten a lot of
comments about your request for

1189
01:15:20,549 --> 01:15:26,129
a nondisclosure if I were to be
allowed by God's grace to see

1190
01:15:26,129 --> 01:15:31,829
your studio for once in my life.
And a lot of people responded

1191
01:15:31,859 --> 01:15:35,189
immediately by saying that they
were shocked. I mean, shocked

1192
01:15:35,189 --> 01:15:39,599
they tell me that you have all
people who considers non

1193
01:15:39,599 --> 01:15:43,859
disclosures to be an incredible
breach on first amendment rights

1194
01:15:43,859 --> 01:15:46,949
and freedom of speech. So with
quite odd that you would take

1195
01:15:46,949 --> 01:15:53,339
this as a tool against your your
colleague. But otherwise see

1196
01:15:53,340 --> 01:15:56,310
that I guess he's somebody
coming up with that. Sure. And I

1197
01:15:56,310 --> 01:16:00,480
agree, I think I shot the last
guy you should be demanding non

1198
01:16:00,480 --> 01:16:04,320
disclosures non disparagement
documents to be signed, right?

1199
01:16:04,350 --> 01:16:06,930
Yeah. All right. Yeah. Do your
everybody out there is exactly

1200
01:16:06,930 --> 01:16:08,970
right. Because I hate these
things are stupid.

1201
01:16:09,059 --> 01:16:12,359
But yet you're going to make me
sign one. So I can't talk trash

1202
01:16:12,359 --> 01:16:14,759
about your studio, even though I
would only say no, you're

1203
01:16:14,760 --> 01:16:17,250
already you've already given it
away. You gave it away right

1204
01:16:17,250 --> 01:16:19,500
there. You couldn't you couldn't
help yourself. without even

1205
01:16:19,500 --> 01:16:23,370
seeing the studio. You said
you're going to talk trash about

1206
01:16:23,370 --> 01:16:23,430
it.

1207
01:16:23,460 --> 01:16:26,250
Now. That's your insinuation
that I would talk trash about

1208
01:16:26,250 --> 01:16:29,790
it. You said it. Why? Why? Why
are you worried? What what do

1209
01:16:29,790 --> 01:16:31,920
you what are you hiding? What do
you have to hide? Do you have

1210
01:16:31,920 --> 01:16:33,960
something to hide? You must have
something to hide. Is there

1211
01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:36,120
something you don't want to tell
us about what's going on? John,

1212
01:16:36,120 --> 01:16:42,870
you got something to hide.
headline, former MTV VJ crushed

1213
01:16:42,870 --> 01:16:47,280
in collectors home. The pile
fell over

1214
01:16:48,360 --> 01:16:51,480
the pile of wood Indians fell in
crushed him.

1215
01:16:53,220 --> 01:16:57,780
Onward. Thank you very much. By
the way, Sam, Sam Liang, Liang

1216
01:16:57,810 --> 01:17:01,470
Liang and his and his wife, I
believe they had a brand new

1217
01:17:01,470 --> 01:17:05,520
baby resource. And he's not
claiming it here. But I think

1218
01:17:05,520 --> 01:17:09,180
they might have a new resource.
So I'll say congratulations.

1219
01:17:09,180 --> 01:17:09,630
He's one of

1220
01:17:09,630 --> 01:17:13,740
our oldest, had been around for
Sam. Yes, he's one of our oldest

1221
01:17:14,160 --> 01:17:17,190
supporters longest non run age.
I mean, he's one of our best

1222
01:17:17,220 --> 01:17:19,860
long term support. He's always
been supporting us. So just

1223
01:17:19,860 --> 01:17:22,440
in case I'm gonna get them a
little a new human resource

1224
01:17:22,440 --> 01:17:22,830
karma.

1225
01:17:22,860 --> 01:17:24,510
You've got karma?

1226
01:17:26,700 --> 01:17:30,030
V. Well, we have a second
edition of war in peace, this

1227
01:17:30,030 --> 01:17:33,510
time, from our Associate
Executive Producer, sir Dave,

1228
01:17:33,690 --> 01:17:36,510
Earl of America's Heartland in
Saudi Arabia. This is for

1229
01:17:36,510 --> 01:17:41,580
Gizmodo. Yep. And, but his stuff
is always interesting, because

1230
01:17:41,580 --> 01:17:46,650
he's floats around somehow lead
from place to place.

1231
01:17:46,680 --> 01:17:51,000
He's an interesting guy, many of
our interesting guy. That kind

1232
01:17:51,000 --> 01:17:52,890
of guy, very interesting kind of
guy.

1233
01:17:53,670 --> 01:17:56,580
This is my first donation in the
new year and offset by a week

1234
01:17:56,580 --> 01:18:02,430
from the first 2020 showed by we
give $220.20 dice, which is a

1235
01:18:02,430 --> 01:18:06,210
lot of 20s. Just in case, here's
a good holiday in case there's a

1236
01:18:06,210 --> 01:18:10,980
post holiday slump. And indeed,
there was a melody game Isabella

1237
01:18:10,980 --> 01:18:16,200
and I had a lovely 25th of
December here in Riyadh. And I

1238
01:18:16,230 --> 01:18:20,460
had an arrhythmia, and I had an
opportunity to show them around

1239
01:18:20,460 --> 01:18:24,270
this fascinating country. And
they left yesterday and despite

1240
01:18:24,300 --> 01:18:28,770
Saudi airlines best efforts
actually got home to Middle

1241
01:18:28,770 --> 01:18:33,120
America a few hours ago. So now
he can right now he can talk

1242
01:18:33,150 --> 01:18:35,160
because he's now he's alone
again,

1243
01:18:35,190 --> 01:18:39,450
they can't be. Now that
countdown begins to our next

1244
01:18:39,450 --> 01:18:43,950
meeting. Regarding Dr. Bronner's
castile soap, I'm a couple of

1245
01:18:43,950 --> 01:18:48,150
years younger than Adam, but
when I was a boy scout, Dr.

1246
01:18:48,150 --> 01:18:52,260
Bronner always came along in my
backpack on camping trips, where

1247
01:18:52,260 --> 01:18:56,040
it was somewhat effective as
somewhat effective as soap. He

1248
01:18:56,040 --> 01:18:59,550
was exceptionally aromatic,
which after a few days on the

1249
01:18:59,550 --> 01:19:04,380
trail was also appreciated.
According to the microscopic

1250
01:19:04,380 --> 01:19:06,570
print on the balls. If you ever
see one of these bottles, you

1251
01:19:06,570 --> 01:19:09,660
have to Yes, I did. And I love
his little rundown here of

1252
01:19:09,660 --> 01:19:12,690
what's actually on the bottle in
the microscopic print.

1253
01:19:13,050 --> 01:19:18,660
Here, he says Dr. Bronner can
serve as a shampoo, body soap

1254
01:19:18,720 --> 01:19:22,740
dog soap dishwashing soap
laundry soap, toothpaste,

1255
01:19:22,770 --> 01:19:27,450
mouthwash, deodorant, massage
oil and ice cream topping

1256
01:19:28,080 --> 01:19:32,550
mucilage drinks, mixer edgy
grease or personal lubricant,

1257
01:19:32,700 --> 01:19:37,800
motor oil, refreshing beverage
lacks it is solid, antiseptic,

1258
01:19:37,800 --> 01:19:39,510
bug repellent, etc.

1259
01:19:40,560 --> 01:19:45,150
This is a sanding product. It's
really a great product.

1260
01:19:46,200 --> 01:19:51,900
It does all those things poorly,
truly miraculous product i

1261
01:19:51,990 --> 01:19:55,530
Everyone should keep a ball
close to him. And surprisingly,

1262
01:19:55,530 --> 01:19:59,550
despite his many uses, it's not
on Saudi Arabia's prohibited

1263
01:19:59,550 --> 01:20:06,330
list. Okay, so everyone's soap
up. I was mesmerised by the

1264
01:20:06,330 --> 01:20:09,630
multiple. You know, when I was
in the military one time it was

1265
01:20:09,630 --> 01:20:13,680
before I came before 911 You
couldn't even bring up a cell

1266
01:20:13,680 --> 01:20:17,760
phone or a camera into Saudi
Arabia. Oh, no, no, I was

1267
01:20:17,760 --> 01:20:21,210
mesmerised by the multiple
usages, but was smart enough,

1268
01:20:22,440 --> 01:20:28,560
even then to know that, despite
its useful nature, the political

1269
01:20:28,560 --> 01:20:34,440
rantings of Dr. Bronner's
manifesto was BS. Hopefully the

1270
01:20:34,440 --> 01:20:37,620
millennial fascination started
the doctors cleansing

1271
01:20:37,620 --> 01:20:42,330
properties. Certainly listening
to the the no agenda show aka

1272
01:20:42,330 --> 01:20:46,530
the best podcast in the universe
is an antidote enough to counter

1273
01:20:46,530 --> 01:20:51,480
any of these multipurpose, more
corrosive effects, which he's

1274
01:20:51,480 --> 01:20:54,240
talking about the messaging on
this a bunch of communist stuff.

1275
01:20:54,240 --> 01:20:59,790
Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, here's to
another year of no agenda,

1276
01:20:59,790 --> 01:21:04,650
continued presence of the
cornerstone of my amygdala

1277
01:21:04,650 --> 01:21:13,140
management programme. May we the
no agenda, community cult? Find

1278
01:21:13,440 --> 01:21:15,990
blessings abundant in the new
year.

1279
01:21:17,610 --> 01:21:21,240
I'd like the amygdala management
programme, also known as amp.

1280
01:21:21,510 --> 01:21:22,980
It's kind of like

1281
01:21:22,980 --> 01:21:27,810
that. middleman managing
amygdala map. Yeah. Amp. Amp.

1282
01:21:27,810 --> 01:21:30,720
It's perfect amygdala management
programme got a lot of amps

1283
01:21:30,720 --> 01:21:33,930
going on. Yes, for sure. It was
about some

1284
01:21:34,139 --> 01:21:39,269
karma from both of us and for
Isabel and melody. Karma. Thanks

1285
01:21:39,269 --> 01:21:39,479
a lot.

1286
01:21:39,480 --> 01:21:48,150
Dave. Space Coast, Lewisville,
Texas 2021022. A joy to ITM.

1287
01:21:48,150 --> 01:21:51,300
Happy New Year's gentlemen. I
beg you for a dose of contract

1288
01:21:51,420 --> 01:21:56,520
buyout negotiation karma. I
could really use it. Please feel

1289
01:21:56,520 --> 01:22:01,410
free to edit for brevity. I
would add my input to the

1290
01:22:01,410 --> 01:22:04,710
ongoing dissection of
millennials and our sad

1291
01:22:04,740 --> 01:22:09,030
idiosyncrasies. I'm a 28 year
old full stack developer full

1292
01:22:09,030 --> 01:22:14,130
stack, full stack full stack,
full stack. He's a full stack

1293
01:22:14,130 --> 01:22:19,920
guy. Full Stack guy, full stack
guy, full stack developer in

1294
01:22:19,950 --> 01:22:23,730
Irving, Texas. John hit me in
the mouth through twit more than

1295
01:22:23,730 --> 01:22:28,140
a decade ago. I've never heard
of anyone using Venmo to pay

1296
01:22:28,140 --> 01:22:31,740
their bills, but is widely used
as a replacement for cash. I've

1297
01:22:31,740 --> 01:22:34,740
only seen it. That's right.
Venmo is a is a millennial

1298
01:22:34,740 --> 01:22:36,420
thing. Well, they don't have one
on the list.

1299
01:22:37,230 --> 01:22:40,380
We talked about it because Venmo
had an outage and people were

1300
01:22:40,380 --> 01:22:43,920
freaking out because they could
not pay their bills. They

1301
01:22:43,920 --> 01:22:45,600
definitely pay bills with it.

1302
01:22:46,020 --> 01:22:51,630
Yeah, fact. Fact. I've only seen
it ever being used to Dr.

1303
01:22:51,630 --> 01:22:54,930
Bronner's grandma pine tar so
for years extensive use of

1304
01:22:54,930 --> 01:23:01,170
subtitles is all yes, there's
another one subtitles to real as

1305
01:23:01,170 --> 01:23:06,720
a small get together. Mural I
talked about this Nick. Jay's

1306
01:23:07,470 --> 01:23:12,210
fiancee. I so I come in their TV
room, they just got us they're

1307
01:23:12,210 --> 01:23:15,360
watching something and it's got
the subtitles on. Ah, I said

1308
01:23:15,360 --> 01:23:21,060
subtitles the subtitles. He's
and he's claims he's a musician.

1309
01:23:21,450 --> 01:23:24,540
He claims that the subtitles are
odd because their sound is

1310
01:23:24,540 --> 01:23:25,650
poorly mixed.

1311
01:23:25,890 --> 01:23:29,850
You know, John, we've only
talked about this for 50 days

1312
01:23:29,850 --> 01:23:32,250
subsequently. I don't know why
it's coming back up.

1313
01:23:32,490 --> 01:23:36,780
As a small girl guys a small get
together and millennials. A girl

1314
01:23:36,810 --> 01:23:40,200
asked to dim I'm reading again
to turn on the subtitles because

1315
01:23:40,200 --> 01:23:43,020
she couldn't understand the
Boston accents of the departed.

1316
01:23:43,920 --> 01:23:50,400
Wow. I wouldn't allow it. Adam,
I I owe you a report on my

1317
01:23:50,400 --> 01:23:53,430
experience with companies that
prey on the people who have

1318
01:23:53,430 --> 01:23:58,620
fallen prey to the everyone can
code BS. Yours in exile. Sir

1319
01:23:58,620 --> 01:23:58,980
Pippin.

1320
01:23:59,400 --> 01:24:06,330
So two things. One, yes, we've
discussed quite extensively the

1321
01:24:06,810 --> 01:24:11,250
abundant millennial use of
subtitles. A lot of this is

1322
01:24:11,250 --> 01:24:14,520
because of distracted second
screens. A lot of it is

1323
01:24:14,520 --> 01:24:17,670
definitely because of the five
one sound mix that is being

1324
01:24:17,670 --> 01:24:21,420
jammed through a CTS sound bar.
That's another issue. Big

1325
01:24:21,420 --> 01:24:24,840
problem. In fact, maybe one of
the main ones. And there's also

1326
01:24:24,840 --> 01:24:28,620
a cognition issue that's taking
place because people are so used

1327
01:24:28,620 --> 01:24:32,670
to reading little short bits of
text is just like a tweet. Each

1328
01:24:32,670 --> 01:24:36,720
of these subtitle cards that
pops up, people are losing the

1329
01:24:36,750 --> 01:24:41,040
actual ability to translate
sound into something that they

1330
01:24:41,040 --> 01:24:45,210
can recognise in their brain.
And we're all going to be deaf

1331
01:24:45,210 --> 01:24:48,210
eventually. We'll just be
reading subtitles everywhere.

1332
01:24:48,480 --> 01:24:52,620
Well, what's interesting to me
is not understanding the really

1333
01:24:52,620 --> 01:24:57,270
mild Boston accent or any Boston
accent. It's not that hard.

1334
01:24:58,110 --> 01:25:02,820
Well, I think another problem is
And is big when you when you

1335
01:25:02,820 --> 01:25:06,510
don't when you're not exposed to
accents. You see this a lot with

1336
01:25:08,310 --> 01:25:12,090
love Island UK, which was really
big during the season, which is

1337
01:25:12,090 --> 01:25:15,780
a stupid reality show. But
everyone's speaking in a very

1338
01:25:15,780 --> 01:25:21,630
British accent very slang ish as
well. And it's, it's you got to

1339
01:25:21,660 --> 01:25:25,500
focus and listen and having
lived there I pick I know a lot

1340
01:25:25,500 --> 01:25:28,230
of the slang. But I think when
people use crutches

1341
01:25:28,230 --> 01:25:32,490
continuously, then you lose the
ability to understand what

1342
01:25:32,490 --> 01:25:35,850
someone's saying through an
accent or even in a different

1343
01:25:35,850 --> 01:25:38,640
language. I can hear someone
speak in any language, I can

1344
01:25:38,640 --> 01:25:41,520
pretty much pick out what they
mean, if it's a simple thing,

1345
01:25:41,730 --> 01:25:45,480
just because I've been around
language and I've had to decode

1346
01:25:45,480 --> 01:25:48,720
it by listening to it. I think
people you lose that ability.

1347
01:25:49,230 --> 01:25:51,600
The brain is very good. You're
very good at parsing stuff. You

1348
01:25:51,600 --> 01:25:54,420
have some exposure to some, you
know, maybe a little bit of

1349
01:25:54,420 --> 01:25:57,240
French might help a little bit
of Spanish you can understand a

1350
01:25:57,240 --> 01:25:59,790
lot of different languages, but
not if you're just always

1351
01:25:59,790 --> 01:26:04,650
reading a translation or a
subtitle. I think you lose it.

1352
01:26:04,680 --> 01:26:05,970
You don't use it, you lose it.

1353
01:26:09,930 --> 01:26:14,490
Onward. Did he want any car Mark
image little karma for all that?

1354
01:26:14,970 --> 01:26:15,570
All that work?

1355
01:26:16,680 --> 01:26:18,390
You've got karma.

1356
01:26:20,100 --> 01:26:26,370
Which brings us to Sir Schwartz
$202. And he says forgive me pod

1357
01:26:26,370 --> 01:26:31,290
Father, for I have deuced please
accept his humble donation. All

1358
01:26:31,290 --> 01:26:37,830
I wish is a de douching de
deuced. And he wants some

1359
01:26:37,830 --> 01:26:42,090
divorce karma, boo. But hey,
life in is great. And when you

1360
01:26:42,090 --> 01:26:45,720
keep debunking the corporate
media, it makes it even better.

1361
01:26:45,720 --> 01:26:46,590
So Schwartz.

1362
01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:51,780
You've got Carmen Thank you very
much. Sorry to hear that.

1363
01:26:52,950 --> 01:26:56,250
And finally we got anonymous
brooklyn new york tuner bucks no

1364
01:26:56,250 --> 01:27:01,770
note and Ryan Black from walk
walk saw walks off North

1365
01:27:01,770 --> 01:27:05,400
Carolina with no note I can do a
quick look upon him to see if

1366
01:27:05,400 --> 01:27:06,660
he's in there. Right.

1367
01:27:08,040 --> 01:27:11,310
Thought I'd recalled something
from Ryan Black coming in. Now

1368
01:27:11,310 --> 01:27:14,880
we don't know because Eric, the
show may have not been able to

1369
01:27:15,510 --> 01:27:19,170
put everything into our
spreadsheet because of the lack

1370
01:27:19,170 --> 01:27:23,040
of a micro grid. Let's just call
it what it is. He needs a micro

1371
01:27:23,040 --> 01:27:25,200
grid up there. You shouldn't you
should get that installed.

1372
01:27:27,300 --> 01:27:30,510
Alright, let's see we got here.
Ryan Black here. He does. Are

1373
01:27:30,510 --> 01:27:33,660
you gonna write their payment
received from Ryan Black Jim.

1374
01:27:34,050 --> 01:27:39,300
Okay. Hello, no agenda today is
just the thing from note. No,

1375
01:27:39,300 --> 01:27:45,480
this is just this just the
receipt. The receipt? All right.

1376
01:27:46,260 --> 01:27:48,300
All right. Well, we would like
to thank these executive

1377
01:27:48,300 --> 01:27:51,690
producers and our Associate
Executive producers for episode

1378
01:27:51,870 --> 01:28:00,510
1205 of the no agenda show. I
was looking through some of the

1379
01:28:00,540 --> 01:28:06,480
profiles on LinkedIn. You should
see Nussbaum profile. You know,

1380
01:28:06,480 --> 01:28:09,240
talking about putting one of
these credits into your LinkedIn

1381
01:28:09,240 --> 01:28:15,030
profile. Nussbaum and a
Melanson, almen Melanson, he has

1382
01:28:15,120 --> 01:28:18,720
a LinkedIn profile that lists
every single no agenda show he's

1383
01:28:18,720 --> 01:28:22,050
been an executive producer of he
put in all the different

1384
01:28:22,080 --> 01:28:25,800
different specials, it's all in
there. And this guy, you can

1385
01:28:25,800 --> 01:28:30,090
look them up very successful in
his field, extremely successful

1386
01:28:30,090 --> 01:28:35,580
in technology. And I attribute a
lot of that to the to the titles

1387
01:28:35,580 --> 01:28:37,710
he puts into his LinkedIn
profile. That's what gets you

1388
01:28:37,710 --> 01:28:42,030
hired. Ask him ask him about it.
I'm sure he'll agree. So yes,

1389
01:28:42,330 --> 01:28:46,380
well, I was gonna say it's
doesn't cost anything. It's

1390
01:28:46,380 --> 01:28:49,950
free. Yeah, you can put anything
you want in there on that

1391
01:28:49,950 --> 01:28:52,680
LinkedIn profile you can load up
and that's what he did.

1392
01:28:54,000 --> 01:28:58,050
It really did load up check him
out. But above all know that you

1393
01:28:58,050 --> 01:29:01,020
have contributed towards keeping
the show on for yet another

1394
01:29:01,020 --> 01:29:05,310
episode. We've been doing it for
12 years. We hope to do it for

1395
01:29:05,340 --> 01:29:07,290
at least a couple more. I don't
know about 12 more. I don't know

1396
01:29:07,290 --> 01:29:12,600
if we'll live 12 more years but
man do I love my job. I gotta

1397
01:29:12,600 --> 01:29:16,800
tell you I wake up Thursdays and
Sundays. I don't always know

1398
01:29:16,800 --> 01:29:20,250
what day it is. But I love my
job because I know that I get to

1399
01:29:20,250 --> 01:29:23,730
do this and you've made it
possible. You all produce it.

1400
01:29:23,760 --> 01:29:26,970
Get my nation Thank you. And
remember we'll do it again on

1401
01:29:26,970 --> 01:29:32,970
Thursday. Please consider us at
VO rack.org/and A you can tell

1402
01:29:32,970 --> 01:29:36,630
everybody you know what's going
on with Soleimani Wag the Dog

1403
01:29:36,870 --> 01:29:41,610
our formula is this. We go out
for hit people in the mouth

1404
01:29:55,890 --> 01:29:57,210
the goat slipped in there.

1405
01:29:57,720 --> 01:30:01,500
There was the better big story
in My opinion in which which

1406
01:30:01,500 --> 01:30:05,940
wasn't covered as much and but I
thought was much more intriguing

1407
01:30:05,940 --> 01:30:07,740
is the is the golden story.

1408
01:30:07,830 --> 01:30:15,120
Now this is the the automobile
executive, who was I guess he

1409
01:30:15,120 --> 01:30:18,030
was kicked out of his job and
arrested he was he was going to

1410
01:30:18,150 --> 01:30:21,270
he was in house arrest and he
was going to come forward on

1411
01:30:21,750 --> 01:30:28,620
some unspecified financial
shenanigans charges, which I

1412
01:30:28,620 --> 01:30:32,730
looked and tried the only thing
I could find, and maybe you have

1413
01:30:32,730 --> 01:30:36,930
an answer here in these clips.
From what I understand, the only

1414
01:30:36,930 --> 01:30:43,620
thing that was a problem was his
apparent wish to have a merger

1415
01:30:43,620 --> 01:30:48,150
between Nissan and Renault. Is
that right?

1416
01:30:48,990 --> 01:30:51,840
Oh, now there's more to it than
this is really interesting.

1417
01:30:51,930 --> 01:30:52,410
Yeah, I'd

1418
01:30:52,410 --> 01:30:53,370
love to know. Well, let's,

1419
01:30:53,579 --> 01:30:56,009
let's play a couple of clips in
and I'll discuss what I think

1420
01:30:56,009 --> 01:31:00,959
it's going okay. Display Goshen
through Turkey one.

1421
01:31:01,259 --> 01:31:04,409
So far, what Turkey has said is
that it has launched an

1422
01:31:04,409 --> 01:31:07,949
investigation the Istanbul
Prosecutor's Office has is

1423
01:31:07,949 --> 01:31:11,429
looking into it now. And they
have detained seven people as

1424
01:31:11,429 --> 01:31:14,849
you mentioned, four of them
pilots one is a manager at a

1425
01:31:14,849 --> 01:31:18,929
private aviation company as well
as to ground staff, service

1426
01:31:18,929 --> 01:31:22,889
workers. So the stumbled police
now is going to be going through

1427
01:31:22,889 --> 01:31:26,909
their testimony trying to piece
together what happened and what

1428
01:31:26,909 --> 01:31:29,999
we know about this mystery. This
puzzle is that there was a

1429
01:31:29,999 --> 01:31:33,449
flight that took off from Osaka,
Japan and landed in Istanbul. A

1430
01:31:33,449 --> 01:31:36,329
little while later another
flight took off from Istanbul

1431
01:31:36,449 --> 01:31:40,229
and went to the route that all
coinciding with the timeline of

1432
01:31:40,229 --> 01:31:45,599
guns. Mysterious Disappearance
back to Beirut and the Istanbul

1433
01:31:45,599 --> 01:31:48,749
police now are trying to figure
out what happened on the ground

1434
01:31:48,749 --> 01:31:52,379
and Istanbul's Ataturk Airport.
That's not Istanbul's main

1435
01:31:52,379 --> 01:31:55,679
International Airport. It was
decommissioned just a while ago.

1436
01:31:55,889 --> 01:32:00,029
And now only services, cargo
planes and private jets like the

1437
01:32:00,029 --> 01:32:04,199
one that Ghana suspected of
having fled on may be some of

1438
01:32:04,199 --> 01:32:07,169
the testimony that the Turkish
police gathered from these seven

1439
01:32:07,169 --> 01:32:11,069
detained suspects will shed
light on the mystery of what's

1440
01:32:11,069 --> 01:32:15,269
happening. And the international
the Interpol the Red Notice that

1441
01:32:15,269 --> 01:32:19,589
has been issued is basically
going to make it a bit more of

1442
01:32:19,589 --> 01:32:23,189
an international issue for gone.
But there is no extradition

1443
01:32:23,189 --> 01:32:27,269
between Lebanon and Japan. So
the likelihood of of him being

1444
01:32:27,269 --> 01:32:30,839
returned to Japan is very low.
And that Interpol Red Notice, of

1445
01:32:30,839 --> 01:32:34,619
course, is just a request to
international law enforcement.

1446
01:32:34,739 --> 01:32:38,489
And it's not an order. So what
will happen, what will come out

1447
01:32:38,489 --> 01:32:40,919
of that is something we just
don't know, at this point. What

1448
01:32:40,919 --> 01:32:44,219
we do know that here in Turkey,
at least one small part of the

1449
01:32:44,219 --> 01:32:48,089
puzzle now is in the hands of
the Istanbul police, and perhaps

1450
01:32:48,089 --> 01:32:51,479
they will be able to shed some
light on how gone got away.

1451
01:32:52,710 --> 01:32:55,980
Again, everyone focusing on how
he got away instead of why he

1452
01:32:55,980 --> 01:32:57,930
had to get away in the in the
first place.

1453
01:32:58,290 --> 01:33:01,890
Yes, in fact, there's a bunch of
crazy stories about this, which

1454
01:33:01,890 --> 01:33:07,410
is like he was put in a double
bass cello case and pulled out

1455
01:33:07,410 --> 01:33:09,600
of there and all the rest of it.
And then there's another story

1456
01:33:09,600 --> 01:33:13,410
where he escaped his house. What
happened was he was actually in

1457
01:33:13,410 --> 01:33:17,160
jail. So let's start there. I
thought I thought it was under

1458
01:33:17,160 --> 01:33:22,110
house arrest. He was in jail.
And then they he had a lawyer

1459
01:33:22,110 --> 01:33:24,720
that that begged and begged and
begged there's no reason to keep

1460
01:33:24,720 --> 01:33:27,090
this guy in jail. He should go
to his house and they can keep

1461
01:33:27,090 --> 01:33:31,650
them there under house arrest
and under surveillance. And so

1462
01:33:31,650 --> 01:33:35,610
they gave him bail, and then we
go home. And supposedly the one

1463
01:33:35,610 --> 01:33:39,390
of the stories is he was shallow
kids, which makes no sense.

1464
01:33:41,310 --> 01:33:45,900
What's funny, and the other one
he put on a mask and a hat and a

1465
01:33:45,900 --> 01:33:48,000
beard and just walked out of
there and went straight to the

1466
01:33:48,000 --> 01:33:52,200
airport and took off under a
desert elaborate surveillance.

1467
01:33:52,890 --> 01:33:56,940
I'm thinking first of all, they
wanted the Jap This is an

1468
01:33:56,940 --> 01:33:58,050
embarrassment to the Japanese.

1469
01:33:58,770 --> 01:34:01,770
You you kind of I thought you
promised me you're gonna tell me

1470
01:34:01,770 --> 01:34:04,260
why? Why they he because

1471
01:34:04,260 --> 01:34:06,990
he understated his income tax.

1472
01:34:08,250 --> 01:34:10,680
That's the reason why that's the

1473
01:34:10,680 --> 01:34:13,710
main reason why and then they
start digging into an apparently

1474
01:34:13,710 --> 01:34:17,130
the company. They lied about how
much they paid him and it's all

1475
01:34:17,130 --> 01:34:21,420
about income. And so then their
dough and then company wasn't

1476
01:34:21,420 --> 01:34:23,400
making a lot of money. They
didn't know what to do with this

1477
01:34:23,400 --> 01:34:25,860
guy. They wanted to get him out
and I believe the following.

1478
01:34:26,280 --> 01:34:29,490
This guy was trying to
orchestrate and then there was a

1479
01:34:29,490 --> 01:34:33,930
fallout between Renault and
Nissan drive Japanese can't work

1480
01:34:33,930 --> 01:34:34,800
with a French

1481
01:34:36,600 --> 01:34:39,420
let's be fair, nobody can work
with the French really.

1482
01:34:40,380 --> 01:34:43,650
So so they didn't work out and
Nissan was losing new weren't

1483
01:34:43,650 --> 01:34:46,110
losing money. They were still in
a profitable company. But they

1484
01:34:46,110 --> 01:34:48,210
weren't making the billions and
billions they're supposed to

1485
01:34:48,210 --> 01:34:52,890
make as Toyota is making all the
money. I think the following.

1486
01:34:54,030 --> 01:34:59,430
They didn't want this guy to
stand trial, and he still claims

1487
01:34:59,430 --> 01:35:03,300
he's going to do spill the goods
on Nissan, and maybe it's a

1488
01:35:03,300 --> 01:35:07,170
corrupt, corrupt organisation.
He claims he's gonna have a

1489
01:35:07,170 --> 01:35:10,800
press conference to tell all but
they had to get rid of him they

1490
01:35:10,800 --> 01:35:14,460
couldn't bring him up to trial.
So they they let him walk out of

1491
01:35:14,460 --> 01:35:17,610
there. Oh, he's got a mask and a
dog. Yeah, you can go.

1492
01:35:18,030 --> 01:35:20,340
Because the embarrassment of
whatever was happening with the

1493
01:35:20,340 --> 01:35:23,160
merge or not happening with a
merge or what kind of crap

1494
01:35:24,090 --> 01:35:28,260
was going on with Nissan Ah,
okay. And also the one I think

1495
01:35:28,260 --> 01:35:33,000
is even more primary, the
Japanese and you can talk to

1496
01:35:33,000 --> 01:35:36,330
people who have been involved
with in the 80s, especially when

1497
01:35:36,330 --> 01:35:39,030
the Japanese were kicking
everybody's butt economically

1498
01:35:39,030 --> 01:35:42,930
and there is a right, we should
all do what the Japanese do, you

1499
01:35:42,930 --> 01:35:45,300
know, because the Japanese
economy is going to kill us with

1500
01:35:45,300 --> 01:35:45,870
so much.

1501
01:35:46,560 --> 01:35:49,860
Sony was going to own the world.
I remember it once the Walkman

1502
01:35:49,860 --> 01:35:52,920
came out, we're like, that's it.
They got Betamax they got the

1503
01:35:52,920 --> 01:35:54,780
Walkman. They're gonna own all
of us.

1504
01:35:56,400 --> 01:36:01,140
So the Japanese, if anyone, you
know, has worked for a Japanese

1505
01:36:01,140 --> 01:36:03,270
company in United States during
that era, there were these

1506
01:36:03,270 --> 01:36:07,470
things called the Death buses.
And I had a guy who explained it

1507
01:36:07,470 --> 01:36:11,310
to me in great detail because no
one else's Yeah. You'd be

1508
01:36:11,310 --> 01:36:13,980
running a Japanese operation
here in the United States. It

1509
01:36:13,980 --> 01:36:17,580
was mostly Americans. And then
once you started making profit,

1510
01:36:17,580 --> 01:36:19,860
you weren't getting profitable.
And everything was going well,

1511
01:36:20,010 --> 01:36:23,730
the so called Death buses would
come in. And these were your

1512
01:36:23,730 --> 01:36:24,660
replacements.

1513
01:36:24,690 --> 01:36:26,820
Oh, who you had to train?

1514
01:36:27,540 --> 01:36:33,210
Yeah, all Japanese. Right. So
the death busters so the

1515
01:36:33,390 --> 01:36:37,860
Japanese do not like a member
string or that guy who ran the

1516
01:36:37,860 --> 01:36:38,670
Sony Sony,

1517
01:36:39,180 --> 01:36:41,340
Sony Music Group or the
Entertainment Group. Yeah,

1518
01:36:41,580 --> 01:36:46,890
the Japanese do not like to be
shown up by foreigners. Right.

1519
01:36:47,520 --> 01:36:51,420
So they have a guy running one
of their basic major companies,

1520
01:36:51,420 --> 01:36:56,430
Nissan Motors, and they they
didn't lie I think they just

1521
01:36:56,430 --> 01:37:00,330
didn't like this guy because he
was probably moving them in a

1522
01:37:00,330 --> 01:37:05,040
direction that was not Japanesey
enough. And they they've they

1523
01:37:05,040 --> 01:37:07,980
railroaded him and then finally
dragged and got him out of town.

1524
01:37:08,040 --> 01:37:12,000
He got himself out of town. And
he's going to talk about it

1525
01:37:12,000 --> 01:37:15,690
eventually but this whole thing
stinks. And yeah, that guy does

1526
01:37:15,690 --> 01:37:19,500
look a little like Mr. Bean and
is the whole story this spooky

1527
01:37:19,500 --> 01:37:21,030
story is kind of interesting.

1528
01:37:21,060 --> 01:37:24,870
Could this somehow also be
related to the to another merger

1529
01:37:24,870 --> 01:37:28,560
with I think it's Pozo and
sutra. When are they is it not

1530
01:37:28,560 --> 01:37:30,900
the Peugeot once you join who
are merging? Who was I just

1531
01:37:30,900 --> 01:37:31,890
heard this the other day?

1532
01:37:32,009 --> 01:37:34,019
Well, that could be but this
would have nothing to do with

1533
01:37:34,019 --> 01:37:37,709
it. This is a Reno, which is
different

1534
01:37:39,060 --> 01:37:41,400
events. It was French. And it's

1535
01:37:42,000 --> 01:37:44,850
it was yeah, it was French Reno.
And now it looks as though the

1536
01:37:44,850 --> 01:37:48,300
deal that was gonna come down.
It looked like Well, this guy

1537
01:37:48,300 --> 01:37:51,450
was still there was that since
the Reno thing wasn't working

1538
01:37:51,450 --> 01:37:56,430
out. It looked as if Chrysler,
which is privately owned, was

1539
01:37:56,430 --> 01:38:02,400
going to buy Nissan and Reno and
do the whole thing itself. Out

1540
01:38:02,400 --> 01:38:03,030
of town, right?

1541
01:38:03,030 --> 01:38:06,660
But now we have Chrysler
agreeing to merge with Peugeot

1542
01:38:06,660 --> 01:38:07,800
and Citroen when,

1543
01:38:08,520 --> 01:38:11,520
yeah, well, they gave up on this
because there's something up in

1544
01:38:12,240 --> 01:38:15,960
the Japanese culture. And I
think they didn't like this guy.

1545
01:38:15,960 --> 01:38:18,570
He ran him out of town. He's,
you know, he's introducing

1546
01:38:18,570 --> 01:38:21,540
foreign ideas. I don't know. But
it did the whole thing is

1547
01:38:21,540 --> 01:38:27,330
suspect. And, and he escaped,
they let him escape. There's no

1548
01:38:27,330 --> 01:38:30,060
way he was gonna get passive
surveillance and all the rest of

1549
01:38:30,060 --> 01:38:34,740
it. So and now we're just story
still continues to unfold. I

1550
01:38:34,740 --> 01:38:36,720
just thought it was the funnier
story of the two.

1551
01:38:38,820 --> 01:38:40,740
What is the what's in the second
clip?

1552
01:38:43,200 --> 01:38:47,250
The second clip is it's more of
the same thing played out.

1553
01:38:47,700 --> 01:38:51,570
Yay. On that Carlos gon
investigation now reports just

1554
01:38:51,570 --> 01:38:53,880
out in Lebanon say the
government has received an

1555
01:38:53,910 --> 01:38:57,240
Interpol arrest warrant for
Carlos gone now. The former

1556
01:38:57,240 --> 01:39:00,990
Nissan Chairman arrived in
Lebanon on Tuesday after jumping

1557
01:39:00,990 --> 01:39:04,530
bail in Japan where he was
awaiting trial. Meanwhile,

1558
01:39:04,530 --> 01:39:07,830
police in Turkey have detained
seven people including four

1559
01:39:07,830 --> 01:39:12,420
pilots and a private airline on
suspicion of helping gonna

1560
01:39:12,450 --> 01:39:17,580
escape rule to Sue's now is live
for us and instal and stumble

1561
01:39:17,580 --> 01:39:21,510
with the latest. I mean, go look
at the plot thickens here

1562
01:39:21,510 --> 01:39:25,350
turkeys demanding answers. We
now have this Interpol alert. Do

1563
01:39:25,350 --> 01:39:29,280
officials there have any idea
how Turkey was invoked clear

1564
01:39:29,280 --> 01:39:31,740
Well, that certainly Golan
thinks he's free and clear now

1565
01:39:31,740 --> 01:39:34,200
especially as he remains in
Lebanon, he will likely speak to

1566
01:39:34,200 --> 01:39:36,060
the media in the next few days.
But in the meantime, the

1567
01:39:36,060 --> 01:39:39,270
Japanese are trying to piece
this together as well. So

1568
01:39:39,270 --> 01:39:41,760
embarrassing for them
considering this was supposed to

1569
01:39:41,760 --> 01:39:44,250
be a man who was under
surveillance.

1570
01:39:44,280 --> 01:39:47,370
Absolutely. I mean, this is
quite an embarrassment for the

1571
01:39:47,370 --> 01:39:50,580
Japanese. This was a very high
profile individual for them and

1572
01:39:50,730 --> 01:39:54,960
their legal system was working
to basically bring him to

1573
01:39:54,960 --> 01:39:58,710
justice. And instead of that
happening, he's now fled in this

1574
01:39:58,710 --> 01:40:02,280
audacious Escape. And we don't
have a lot of answers for it.

1575
01:40:02,280 --> 01:40:05,970
But Gordon is expected to speak.
And so far what he said has been

1576
01:40:05,970 --> 01:40:09,420
very, very critical of the
Japanese justice system. He's

1577
01:40:09,420 --> 01:40:13,380
called it rigged. He said that
it's discriminatory. So all in

1578
01:40:13,380 --> 01:40:18,330
all, a very embarrassing moment
for Japan. And at this point,

1579
01:40:18,330 --> 01:40:21,780
now that he's in Lebanon, there
isn't much that they can do to

1580
01:40:21,780 --> 01:40:25,740
bring this man to justice in
front of their own legal system,

1581
01:40:26,430 --> 01:40:29,580
or regardless of what's
happening here. And it seems

1582
01:40:29,580 --> 01:40:34,260
like the media is only focusing
on his escape, and how he

1583
01:40:34,260 --> 01:40:38,430
escaped and did he get into a
musical instrument case? Or did

1584
01:40:38,430 --> 01:40:43,320
he he take a covert charter jet
flights, but no one's focusing

1585
01:40:43,320 --> 01:40:46,590
on The Real News. And I thought,
honestly, from your teas in the

1586
01:40:46,590 --> 01:40:48,690
newsletter, I thought we get a
little bit more about what

1587
01:40:48,690 --> 01:40:52,590
actually is going on with this
guy. And with Nissan and this,

1588
01:40:52,890 --> 01:40:56,550
suppose that merger or failed
merger, but there's another

1589
01:40:56,550 --> 01:41:00,780
backdrop and that is the Japan
is now our ally in the Strait of

1590
01:41:00,780 --> 01:41:04,260
Hormuz, and they're moving their
fleet in there. So maybe there's

1591
01:41:04,260 --> 01:41:08,160
some embarrassment that's taking
place. It's like

1592
01:41:08,160 --> 01:41:11,760
I don't know if there's any
connection at all. This guy by

1593
01:41:11,760 --> 01:41:15,240
the way, should be mentioned
that he's kind of spooky. He's

1594
01:41:15,240 --> 01:41:18,450
got passports from France, three
or four different paths,

1595
01:41:18,450 --> 01:41:23,520
Lebanon, and he's got a passport
from Brazil. Yeah. Which is

1596
01:41:23,520 --> 01:41:26,580
another place to go. If you want
to go hide out somewhere. They

1597
01:41:27,210 --> 01:41:29,610
should all have extradition with
everyone. We should all

1598
01:41:29,610 --> 01:41:33,390
have a Brazilian passport. I
wish you I posted that one, just

1599
01:41:33,390 --> 01:41:38,790
in case. But well, you inspired
me on the previous show with

1600
01:41:38,790 --> 01:41:42,630
your retrospectives. And the big
action was two shows ago, the

1601
01:41:42,630 --> 01:41:48,570
big the big stories of 2019. And
I wanted to follow that up. And

1602
01:41:48,570 --> 01:41:50,790
I was actually planning on
peppering this throughout

1603
01:41:50,790 --> 01:41:55,170
today's episode. But we're
already halfway through. Here

1604
01:41:55,170 --> 01:41:59,610
are some of the big stories that
were not recapped at the end of

1605
01:41:59,610 --> 01:42:03,840
2019. Yeah, the one that you
mentioned specifically. And I

1606
01:42:03,840 --> 01:42:08,760
think really, these would go as
the big media mixers of 2019.

1607
01:42:08,850 --> 01:42:14,610
Let's just remember how accurate
your M five M. Stations were in

1608
01:42:14,610 --> 01:42:18,360
the past year. We start with the
story that no one wants to talk

1609
01:42:18,360 --> 01:42:20,580
about anymore. Jussie Smollett,

1610
01:42:20,730 --> 01:42:24,000
and buyer star Jussie Smollett
was the victim of a vicious,

1611
01:42:24,120 --> 01:42:28,470
racist and homophobic attack his
attackers hurled racial and

1612
01:42:28,470 --> 01:42:30,840
homophobic slurs not only
homophobia,

1613
01:42:30,840 --> 01:42:34,140
we're talking about racism.
We're talking about hate with

1614
01:42:34,140 --> 01:42:37,650
steroids. They are looking for
two suspects who are apparently

1615
01:42:37,650 --> 01:42:41,790
wearing Make America Great Again
hats the offenders uttered. This

1616
01:42:41,790 --> 01:42:46,080
is Maga country this is stomach
turning mind boggling.

1617
01:42:46,380 --> 01:42:49,860
Information lie this is a
horrible story. Horrendous and

1618
01:42:49,860 --> 01:42:50,790
unacceptable.

1619
01:42:52,110 --> 01:42:56,010
This is America in 2019. So let
me see did they get that one

1620
01:42:56,010 --> 01:42:58,620
right John that Jussie Smollett
story, did they did they? Were

1621
01:42:58,620 --> 01:43:02,580
they right on the money with
that? Wrong Wrong? Let's try

1622
01:43:02,580 --> 01:43:06,510
another one. How about the
Covington high school kids with

1623
01:43:06,510 --> 01:43:10,980
the Native American war hero
outrage

1624
01:43:11,009 --> 01:43:14,159
over this now viral video
showing high school teenagers

1625
01:43:14,159 --> 01:43:16,529
harassing a Native American
elder

1626
01:43:16,559 --> 01:43:18,809
with a Native American man who
was beating the drum Nathan

1627
01:43:18,809 --> 01:43:21,929
Phillips and those kids in the
Make America Great Again hat so

1628
01:43:21,929 --> 01:43:24,209
we're kind of smirking at him
and kind of looking down their

1629
01:43:24,209 --> 01:43:25,019
noses at him as

1630
01:43:25,019 --> 01:43:28,649
one smoking high school student
blocked the elders path

1631
01:43:28,679 --> 01:43:32,099
to video appears to show dozens
of youths wearing Make America

1632
01:43:32,099 --> 01:43:35,609
Great Again hats mocking Native
American elder and Vietnam

1633
01:43:35,609 --> 01:43:39,329
veteran Nathan Phillips, a
veteran a Native American man

1634
01:43:39,329 --> 01:43:42,929
was you know, had a standoff
with students who were you know,

1635
01:43:42,929 --> 01:43:45,539
mocking Him. We feel that
President Trump is giving

1636
01:43:45,539 --> 01:43:47,039
licence to some of this
behaviour.

1637
01:43:47,849 --> 01:43:51,899
See where they write about that
one John about the about the kid

1638
01:43:51,899 --> 01:43:59,099
smirking and where they know
wrong wrong. Joe Biden likes to

1639
01:43:59,099 --> 01:44:04,829
touch people's sniffed their
hair, especially children. Let's

1640
01:44:04,889 --> 01:44:09,029
remind ourselves how the media
handled this story when people

1641
01:44:09,029 --> 01:44:11,129
first started to get creeped out
by him.

1642
01:44:11,640 --> 01:44:15,210
very affectionate. I find oddly
affectionate he kisses people on

1643
01:44:15,210 --> 01:44:17,430
the bow he shouldn't. He's
always touching people's

1644
01:44:17,430 --> 01:44:18,780
shoulders. I've seen him

1645
01:44:19,140 --> 01:44:23,070
rub the shoulders of women and
men, Joe Biden calls them

1646
01:44:23,340 --> 01:44:24,570
expressions

1647
01:44:24,810 --> 01:44:27,240
of affection. He is an
affectionate old school

1648
01:44:27,240 --> 01:44:27,780
politician.

1649
01:44:27,810 --> 01:44:31,260
He's a really nice, generous,
funny connecting guy,

1650
01:44:31,320 --> 01:44:32,250
Uncle Joe, as

1651
01:44:32,250 --> 01:44:35,730
we affectionately call him. He's
a very affectionate, very

1652
01:44:35,730 --> 01:44:38,670
likeable person. You know, he's
just an affectionate guy. I know

1653
01:44:38,670 --> 01:44:41,820
Joe Biden a long time as many
others and have always found him

1654
01:44:41,820 --> 01:44:45,870
a very emotional man, who is
very, very affectionate,

1655
01:44:46,170 --> 01:44:50,400
touchy feely. He's been doing it
his entire life in a in an

1656
01:44:50,400 --> 01:44:51,360
affectionate way.

1657
01:44:51,390 --> 01:44:54,720
I think the next time I see Joe
Biden if he doesn't hug me and

1658
01:44:54,720 --> 01:44:57,810
give me a kiss and hold my hand,
that's not the Joe Biden. I knew

1659
01:44:57,840 --> 01:45:01,530
he's a nice guy. He's not a
predator. And this is ridiculous

1660
01:45:01,650 --> 01:45:05,010
show Do they still talk like
that about Joe? Are they a

1661
01:45:05,010 --> 01:45:09,420
little more creeped out about it
now? This song, this is why you

1662
01:45:09,420 --> 01:45:13,650
listen and why you help produce
the no agenda show. Because this

1663
01:45:13,650 --> 01:45:17,820
is the bull crap that the media
puts into your head 24 hours a

1664
01:45:17,820 --> 01:45:22,050
day if you allow it. And it goes
through your eardrums into your

1665
01:45:22,050 --> 01:45:25,470
brain processing and then swells
up your amygdala and then you

1666
01:45:25,470 --> 01:45:30,750
become insane. Let's check
another one. Um, remember the

1667
01:45:30,990 --> 01:45:36,540
Trump meme? Where he was
shooting all the media was

1668
01:45:36,540 --> 01:45:40,980
killing them, which was from the
from the movie. What movie was

1669
01:45:40,980 --> 01:45:46,440
that in the church? What was
that again? I just did you just

1670
01:45:46,440 --> 01:45:51,030
walk away. You just walked away.
You just walked away from the

1671
01:45:51,030 --> 01:45:55,200
show. Like it's like, it's like,
here I am. I'm looking for my

1672
01:45:55,200 --> 01:45:55,800
wing man.

1673
01:45:56,970 --> 01:45:59,880
Because you are introducing
something I had to go get a

1674
01:45:59,880 --> 01:46:04,410
sheet of paper from the desk.
And then you then you threw it

1675
01:46:04,410 --> 01:46:07,020
to me for some unknown reason
because I don't know that movie.

1676
01:46:07,050 --> 01:46:09,870
Kingsman? Yes, you do. Kingsman.
Oh, Kingsman. Yeah, you know, I

1677
01:46:09,870 --> 01:46:11,310
never get to see the second one.

1678
01:46:11,610 --> 01:46:14,070
Well, but you remember the meme
where they had all the

1679
01:46:14,070 --> 01:46:18,240
mainstream media logos on the
people in the church and Trump

1680
01:46:18,240 --> 01:46:22,800
was there with his head? Killing
them all in the right, this

1681
01:46:22,800 --> 01:46:25,950
video. Do you remember? What uh,
What? What? How horrible that

1682
01:46:25,950 --> 01:46:30,030
was? How was going to kill
everybody in the media? Yeah.

1683
01:46:31,980 --> 01:46:36,180
Disturbing fake video was shown
at a conference of you know,

1684
01:46:36,180 --> 01:46:37,200
whose supporters

1685
01:46:37,230 --> 01:46:40,350
it's about so much more than a
single video. It's about a

1686
01:46:40,350 --> 01:46:43,290
president and his supporters are
sowing seeds of hate and

1687
01:46:43,290 --> 01:46:44,310
division. There's something

1688
01:46:44,310 --> 01:46:47,880
very ugly at the heart of
Trumpism. And we saw that ID in

1689
01:46:47,880 --> 01:46:48,510
this video.

1690
01:46:48,900 --> 01:46:50,220
Files are terrific.

1691
01:46:50,250 --> 01:46:52,410
Some of his supporters would
think this might even be somehow

1692
01:46:52,410 --> 01:46:52,800
funny.

1693
01:46:52,919 --> 01:46:56,159
You know, there are real
people's bodies and lives on the

1694
01:46:56,159 --> 01:46:56,519
line.

1695
01:46:56,610 --> 01:46:59,640
Oh, easy for all of you judging
me that I'm offended and upset

1696
01:46:59,640 --> 01:47:02,820
by the video. You try doing this
once a member of your family is

1697
01:47:02,820 --> 01:47:05,940
continued to have this happen
over and over and

1698
01:47:05,970 --> 01:47:07,020
over? I'm gonna guess.

1699
01:47:07,440 --> 01:47:14,010
Now. Did anyone from the media
die? Anyone assassinated? Did

1700
01:47:14,010 --> 01:47:17,670
anyone at the end of 2019 wrap
up the Muller report about how

1701
01:47:17,670 --> 01:47:20,520
right the media was and how spot
on they were with their

1702
01:47:20,520 --> 01:47:21,390
analysis?

1703
01:47:21,870 --> 01:47:24,930
Oh, you mean how it was he was
doomed because of the Muller

1704
01:47:24,930 --> 01:47:27,510
report is going to be delivering
what I think are going to be his

1705
01:47:27,510 --> 01:47:28,890
indictments, the final
indictments.

1706
01:47:29,040 --> 01:47:30,720
This is suborning perjury.

1707
01:47:30,900 --> 01:47:33,720
I think there's no question it's
an impeachable offence and at

1708
01:47:33,720 --> 01:47:36,330
that point, we are in high
crimes and misdemeanour and we

1709
01:47:36,330 --> 01:47:37,020
are in impeachment.

1710
01:47:37,620 --> 01:47:41,400
The spirit of what Trump did is
clearly treasonous. There's

1711
01:47:41,550 --> 01:47:43,980
outright treason. I think he's
putting the noose around his

1712
01:47:43,980 --> 01:47:45,810
neck, the noose is tightening.

1713
01:47:46,050 --> 01:47:48,210
He feels the noose is
tightening, the noose is

1714
01:47:48,210 --> 01:47:51,570
tightening, people might go to
jail. You're exactly right, the

1715
01:47:51,570 --> 01:47:52,350
rest of their lives.

1716
01:47:52,380 --> 01:47:54,150
I think they're all going to
jail. Well, I

1717
01:47:54,150 --> 01:47:56,400
think they're all going to end
up together in prison. And maybe

1718
01:47:56,400 --> 01:47:56,850
that's because

1719
01:47:57,510 --> 01:48:01,050
he has no idea that he's going
down.

1720
01:48:01,080 --> 01:48:04,170
The investigation is over. And
according to a senior DOJ

1721
01:48:04,170 --> 01:48:07,350
official, there will be no
further indictments. How can

1722
01:48:07,350 --> 01:48:08,580
they let Trump off the hook?

1723
01:48:10,560 --> 01:48:14,310
Did everyone go to jail with the
indictments imminent? Was the

1724
01:48:14,520 --> 01:48:16,920
Muller report of any
significance?

1725
01:48:17,940 --> 01:48:19,830
No, apparently not. Now.

1726
01:48:19,889 --> 01:48:24,299
I have one more last one. Okay,
last one. This has got to be my

1727
01:48:24,299 --> 01:48:28,439
favourite. Because it's been so
many. It's been years since they

1728
01:48:28,469 --> 01:48:32,039
first laid this smack on us. And
it's good to remember how

1729
01:48:32,039 --> 01:48:38,309
incredibly wrong the media were
or was about the steel dossier.

1730
01:48:38,759 --> 01:48:42,419
Parts of the now infamous
dossier on Trump have proven to

1731
01:48:42,419 --> 01:48:42,959
be true.

1732
01:48:42,990 --> 01:48:47,040
Your intel community has
corroborated all of the details

1733
01:48:47,040 --> 01:48:48,990
in there the when the President
just refers to this fake

1734
01:48:48,990 --> 01:48:53,820
dossier. That is false. I don't
think that's the accurate

1735
01:48:53,820 --> 01:48:55,590
characterization. Investigators
have

1736
01:48:55,620 --> 01:48:59,970
cooperated part of the dossier.
We do know that parts of it have

1737
01:48:59,970 --> 01:49:01,290
been corroborated. It's not

1738
01:49:01,290 --> 01:49:04,080
been corroborated. But it hasn't
been disproven.

1739
01:49:04,110 --> 01:49:08,010
No major thing from the dossier
has been conclusively disproven

1740
01:49:08,040 --> 01:49:12,000
to date. None of it has been
disproven, and whole big parts

1741
01:49:12,000 --> 01:49:15,660
of it are holding up as the
dossier holds up. Well, it's a

1742
01:49:15,660 --> 01:49:19,350
fact that none of it not one
word has been disproven. In

1743
01:49:19,350 --> 01:49:22,920
fact, a lot of it turned out to
be right on the money. The FBI

1744
01:49:22,920 --> 01:49:27,120
would not have just taken a
dossier to the FISA court and

1745
01:49:27,120 --> 01:49:30,240
use that as their predicate for
the surveillance. They had to

1746
01:49:30,240 --> 01:49:32,910
corroborate it themselves.
That's how they operate.

1747
01:49:33,990 --> 01:49:37,410
So if you're wondering, or
someone in your family is

1748
01:49:37,410 --> 01:49:43,140
wondering why you listen to this
podcast, that's why and I'm sure

1749
01:49:43,140 --> 01:49:47,130
we can do the same thing with
this Iran, Iraq Soleimani thing

1750
01:49:47,130 --> 01:49:48,270
at the end of this year.

1751
01:49:49,560 --> 01:49:52,530
You know, the funny thing about
that dossier story is that

1752
01:49:52,530 --> 01:49:56,670
although it's we didn't document
it specifically, is the way the

1753
01:49:56,670 --> 01:50:02,100
dossier story kept changing and
morphing In regards to the FISA

1754
01:50:02,100 --> 01:50:05,640
court, yes, when they first came
out they said, well, it wasn't

1755
01:50:05,640 --> 01:50:09,300
that important to our Pfizer,
you know, request Yeah. And then

1756
01:50:09,300 --> 01:50:12,150
it became important to the fight
then it was apparently was the

1757
01:50:12,150 --> 01:50:15,990
only thing that it was device a
request was based on was the

1758
01:50:15,990 --> 01:50:21,120
dossier, this dossier was. I
don't understand how it got as

1759
01:50:21,120 --> 01:50:24,330
far as it did, because it was
just look phoney from the get

1760
01:50:24,330 --> 01:50:30,150
go. It had stunk. And he had
just passed the smell test.

1761
01:50:30,180 --> 01:50:34,440
I might get a clip for Thursday,
this interview with the author

1762
01:50:34,440 --> 01:50:37,980
of the book, the thing is the
plot to bring down the American

1763
01:50:37,980 --> 01:50:41,910
president I forget exactly what
the title of the book is. And

1764
01:50:41,910 --> 01:50:45,270
this guy has done all the
research and his assertion is

1765
01:50:45,270 --> 01:50:50,430
that the dossier was not used
for the FISA warrant

1766
01:50:50,430 --> 01:50:54,870
application. It was written
specifically for the FISA

1767
01:50:54,870 --> 01:50:59,670
warrant application by slipping
in one or two very pertinent

1768
01:50:59,670 --> 01:51:06,930
lines, which literally say that
Trump is compromised by a

1769
01:51:06,930 --> 01:51:10,560
foreign power, and that that
line and but that was written in

1770
01:51:10,560 --> 01:51:13,140
specifically, it's interesting
enough that what makes that it's

1771
01:51:13,140 --> 01:51:19,560
that it's exactly reversed that
that the, the steel dossier was

1772
01:51:19,560 --> 01:51:23,940
not the genesis of the warrant,
but they knew they wanted to get

1773
01:51:23,940 --> 01:51:28,320
this warrant. So they had they
created this through steel. And

1774
01:51:28,350 --> 01:51:31,650
now there's lots of implications
as to who was complicit in

1775
01:51:31,650 --> 01:51:33,930
writing this. But anyway, I
digress.

1776
01:51:34,080 --> 01:51:37,380
I'm reminded I wanted this one
it just ran into because I was

1777
01:51:37,380 --> 01:51:40,740
going through some of my old
files, and I forgot about it.

1778
01:51:41,430 --> 01:51:44,970
This was from a year earlier.
And this was classic, because

1779
01:51:44,970 --> 01:51:48,690
everybody bought into this. And
they bought into it hook line

1780
01:51:48,690 --> 01:51:51,600
and sinker and they've all since
forgotten, forgotten about it.

1781
01:51:52,740 --> 01:51:58,290
Donald Trump's gorilla channel
like the watch television, but

1782
01:51:58,290 --> 01:52:00,210
he was the gorilla channel.
You're

1783
01:52:00,210 --> 01:52:01,440
right, forgot about that.

1784
01:52:02,070 --> 01:52:06,330
He had to watch gorillas. So
they created a fake channel for

1785
01:52:06,330 --> 01:52:09,480
him so he could watch gorillas.
And so they as he watched the

1786
01:52:09,480 --> 01:52:11,670
gorillas, she's always bitching
and moaning about they weren't

1787
01:52:11,670 --> 01:52:16,620
fighting enough. The gorilla?
Yes. So everybody passed this

1788
01:52:16,620 --> 01:52:22,050
around his fact. Donald Trump
and the gorilla channel that was

1789
01:52:22,050 --> 01:52:27,270
a good one. Yep. Anime of the
stupidity of the left. And this,

1790
01:52:27,360 --> 01:52:32,370
the basic audience out there
that are suckers for this sort

1791
01:52:32,370 --> 01:52:34,950
of thing. And that was problem
promulgated by everybody. There

1792
01:52:34,950 --> 01:52:39,210
was a lot of TV stories on it.
And it was all over the network.

1793
01:52:39,210 --> 01:52:42,720
And there, there the internet.
Yeah, but the gorilla channel.

1794
01:52:42,720 --> 01:52:44,160
Yeah. Hi, classic.

1795
01:52:44,190 --> 01:52:46,200
Do we have any clips about that?
I'm sure we

1796
01:52:46,830 --> 01:52:49,770
probably did go back probably
2017.

1797
01:52:50,820 --> 01:52:53,790
I don't see anything offhand. I
should probably put together a

1798
01:52:53,790 --> 01:52:57,210
little compilation of that of
the of the gorilla channel. That

1799
01:52:57,210 --> 01:53:04,410
was hilarious. That was the
Russian pranksters as they're

1800
01:53:04,410 --> 01:53:08,040
known. I just liked I prefer to
call in the podcasters. VO

1801
01:53:08,040 --> 01:53:13,020
Vaughn and Lexus have they
struck again. Now previously,

1802
01:53:13,320 --> 01:53:16,740
they had gotten through to
Congressman Adam shifts office

1803
01:53:17,160 --> 01:53:24,930
claiming that they had kompromat
and compromising pictures of

1804
01:53:24,960 --> 01:53:28,440
Trump. If you remember we had
some of that some of that phone

1805
01:53:28,440 --> 01:53:32,190
call. And these guys like radio
guys like weenie in the butt of

1806
01:53:32,190 --> 01:53:38,130
Moscow. So they have a new
Gambit. And they went after

1807
01:53:38,130 --> 01:53:45,240
Maxine Waters, and pretending to
be Greta Thun, Berg, and Greta

1808
01:53:45,240 --> 01:53:49,440
is dead. And they made up this.
They made up the name of an

1809
01:53:49,440 --> 01:53:52,440
island Chunga Changa. I think
that's literally what it's

1810
01:53:52,440 --> 01:53:55,890
called. And they decided they're
going to call into Maxine Maxine

1811
01:53:55,890 --> 01:53:59,130
Waters office, get her on the
phone and say we'll listen to

1812
01:53:59,130 --> 01:54:03,420
Maxine. Yeah, it's Greta and
greatest dad. And we're here in

1813
01:54:03,690 --> 01:54:07,620
thing it's when they say they
were South Carolina. And, you

1814
01:54:07,620 --> 01:54:11,160
know, we're here to garner
support to save the island of

1815
01:54:11,160 --> 01:54:13,530
Chunga. Changa. And could you
please help us out? We'll put

1816
01:54:13,530 --> 01:54:16,830
you on speakerphone. And I
pulled the pertinent clip from

1817
01:54:16,830 --> 01:54:21,270
this from this YouTube video.
And, you know, this used to be

1818
01:54:21,270 --> 01:54:24,510
what Americans did. We used to
be the fun phone, phone

1819
01:54:24,510 --> 01:54:28,380
pranksters. We've let Russia
grab that away from us,

1820
01:54:28,410 --> 01:54:32,700
Congresswoman. Yeah, I have
Greta and her father Sivan. Say

1821
01:54:32,700 --> 01:54:37,590
on the line. Very much,
Congresswoman. This is swans

1822
01:54:37,860 --> 01:54:42,270
greatest father. And here's a
great Yes. Hello. On the line.

1823
01:54:42,270 --> 01:54:43,110
Watch us. Hello. I'm

1824
01:54:43,110 --> 01:54:44,790
very happy to talk to you.

1825
01:54:45,150 --> 01:54:48,840
Well, thank you both for calling
me and I'm very anxious to hear

1826
01:54:48,840 --> 01:54:49,470
from you.

1827
01:54:50,460 --> 01:54:56,880
Yes, I know that yours called
you and Maxine. You That's

1828
01:54:57,900 --> 01:55:00,690
brilliant. Brilliant butter up
first. Bye. So calling her

1829
01:55:00,690 --> 01:55:03,810
auntie Maxine. That's the she'll
love that butter up very good.

1830
01:55:03,840 --> 01:55:06,840
By the way, these guys sound
nothing like Swedish Greta and

1831
01:55:06,840 --> 01:55:09,630
her dad. But still Maxine is
falling for it.

1832
01:55:10,410 --> 01:55:12,360
Absolutely, yes.

1833
01:55:14,009 --> 01:55:17,159
That's so nice. We have
wonderful climate strike to

1834
01:55:17,159 --> 01:55:22,349
support the ecology of choice on
the islands. South end of people

1835
01:55:22,379 --> 01:55:23,489
came to meet me.

1836
01:55:23,789 --> 01:55:28,169
Well, thank you. And I'm so glad
you came to my state. And of

1837
01:55:28,169 --> 01:55:34,049
course, I know all about you,
you have made quite a big, big,

1838
01:55:34,049 --> 01:55:42,479
big thunder on this issue. I am
really, really very proud of you

1839
01:55:42,509 --> 01:55:44,279
and the work that you're doing.

1840
01:55:45,239 --> 01:55:50,969
We're now in North Carolina. So
we are in a climate strike here

1841
01:55:51,029 --> 01:55:51,839
in a meeting.

1842
01:55:52,320 --> 01:55:55,980
Okay, so you're in the meeting
now you start the meeting has

1843
01:55:55,980 --> 01:55:57,870
started. Yes, yes.

1844
01:55:58,170 --> 01:56:01,950
Yes. Yes. We they're not here
now at the meeting. And if you

1845
01:56:01,950 --> 01:56:06,420
will allow me I will put you on
a speakerphone. So yes. And we

1846
01:56:06,420 --> 01:56:09,600
will let you say to people who
is around here,

1847
01:56:09,720 --> 01:56:12,120
which Island? Are they
targeting?

1848
01:56:13,800 --> 01:56:17,850
This is this is the part I like
the best. All these politicians

1849
01:56:17,850 --> 01:56:21,450
are like that is like if I can
get anything out of you. And of

1850
01:56:21,450 --> 01:56:23,700
course, typically these calls
are about money. But right now

1851
01:56:23,700 --> 01:56:26,640
it's like oh, shit, I can align
myself with Greta. juneberry

1852
01:56:26,820 --> 01:56:30,750
This is fantastic. This is good
for me. And they can roll out

1853
01:56:30,750 --> 01:56:35,550
some bullcrap script, just right
off the cuff. Even Maxine, and

1854
01:56:35,550 --> 01:56:40,170
she's up there in age, but she's
still a She's a pro at rolling

1855
01:56:40,170 --> 01:56:42,900
it out. So she has a little bit
of information. She knows it's

1856
01:56:42,900 --> 01:56:45,930
North Carolina. She knows it's
Greta, who's a thunder

1857
01:56:45,960 --> 01:56:49,260
apparently. She knows it's
Chinga Chanca Island, which

1858
01:56:49,260 --> 01:56:52,650
doesn't exist. And she's gonna
do a little promo.

1859
01:56:52,680 --> 01:56:57,240
So yeah. And we will let you say
to people who is around here.

1860
01:56:57,360 --> 01:57:02,760
Which island? Are they
targeting? Chunga? Changa shunga

1861
01:57:02,760 --> 01:57:10,110
Chandra? Yes. Hello, everybody.
This is Congresswoman Maxine

1862
01:57:10,110 --> 01:57:16,380
Waters. And I am so pleased to
be on this telephone call with

1863
01:57:16,380 --> 01:57:19,740
Greta Thornburg. I am just so

1864
01:57:20,400 --> 01:57:26,310
sick, she says thud Berg. Berg,
which is a new one for us

1865
01:57:28,500 --> 01:57:34,050
on this telephone call with
Greta Thornburg. I am just so

1866
01:57:34,050 --> 01:57:40,080
proud of her and her father
Savanti. And the work that they

1867
01:57:40,080 --> 01:57:47,640
are doing. As you know, Greta is
an environmental activist. And

1868
01:57:47,730 --> 01:57:52,560
she took part in the United
Nations Climate Summit in New

1869
01:57:52,560 --> 01:57:57,690
York recently, and she has been
travelling, and she has been the

1870
01:57:57,690 --> 01:58:03,600
greatest advocate for what is
happening with our climate and

1871
01:58:03,600 --> 01:58:07,890
the environment. And I'm very
pleased that she's with you in

1872
01:58:07,890 --> 01:58:13,800
North Carolina, where you're
focusing on protecting the very

1873
01:58:13,830 --> 01:58:16,680
important island of Tula
challenge

1874
01:58:21,300 --> 01:58:24,840
I'm so happy she's supporting
the very important the

1875
01:58:24,840 --> 01:58:29,610
critically important the island
of chimichanga you Greta

1876
01:58:29,610 --> 01:58:36,810
Thunberg and your dad Devonte
Thunberg Come on. Well, I

1877
01:58:36,810 --> 01:58:40,110
believe these these two comrades
deserve a medal for this work.

1878
01:58:40,140 --> 01:58:41,820
This is really very good.

1879
01:58:42,840 --> 01:58:45,540
Well, let's give them this clip
of the day. Yeah,

1880
01:58:45,600 --> 01:58:49,680
you know, I wonder what that we
should do a Russian version so

1881
01:58:49,680 --> 01:58:53,850
we can I don't know how good
they were clear. Oh, god dang.

1882
01:58:55,110 --> 01:58:55,770
Comrade.

1883
01:58:56,549 --> 01:59:01,289
Now both of them sound like a
couple of Russians. It's more

1884
01:59:01,289 --> 01:59:02,219
ludicrous.

1885
01:59:04,500 --> 01:59:07,440
It's a 15 minute call. There's
there's more in it. But I

1886
01:59:07,440 --> 01:59:09,900
thought that was the funniest
one. Especially the thought

1887
01:59:09,900 --> 01:59:12,180
Berg. What a moron.

1888
01:59:13,440 --> 01:59:16,110
That should be on the normal
news, don't you think?

1889
01:59:16,140 --> 01:59:19,650
Oh, yes, it should be but no we
can we can pitch a

1890
01:59:19,680 --> 01:59:24,570
member of Congress so stupid to
fall for this. I mean, if she

1891
01:59:24,570 --> 01:59:27,900
was keeping up with anything,
she knows that Greta Boogie back

1892
01:59:27,900 --> 01:59:32,040
to home base. And she's not in
North Carolina. She didn't go to

1893
01:59:32,040 --> 01:59:37,260
North Carolina after the event
in New York. The whole thing is

1894
01:59:37,260 --> 01:59:40,380
just ludicrous. And it shouldn't
be regular news that that's

1895
01:59:40,380 --> 01:59:44,040
regular news story. No, I agree.
No, no, no, because the news

1896
01:59:44,040 --> 01:59:48,870
media is so fraught with
Democrat left wingers just to be

1897
01:59:48,870 --> 01:59:51,570
honest about it. They can't
bring themselves to do these

1898
01:59:51,570 --> 01:59:56,610
stories. Yeah. Oh my god, it
makes it look so stupid. I

1899
01:59:56,610 --> 01:59:58,620
refuse to run that story.

1900
02:00:00,810 --> 02:00:05,730
Wow, hey, we did have kind of a,
a crappy story here in Austin.

1901
02:00:07,230 --> 02:00:12,300
On Friday, was it Friday or
Saturday morning? We had a

1902
02:00:12,300 --> 02:00:19,770
stabbing one person died on
South Congress. I mean really

1903
02:00:19,770 --> 02:00:26,250
like 10 minutes from my house.
Let me see if there's a. So

1904
02:00:26,430 --> 02:00:31,830
here's what happens. It's at a
burrito joint. And this is right

1905
02:00:31,830 --> 02:00:35,610
on Riverside and South Congress.
This is really where I've lived

1906
02:00:35,640 --> 02:00:39,240
for a lot of the years in
Austin, this general area. And

1907
02:00:39,780 --> 02:00:42,870
so first there was an
altercation in a coffee shop.

1908
02:00:44,160 --> 02:00:49,410
Then this 27 year old suspect.
He was detained by people

1909
02:00:49,410 --> 02:00:52,440
because he was harassing a
woman. So there were civilians,

1910
02:00:52,470 --> 02:00:55,710
I think, and they detained him.
The guy broke loose. The cops

1911
02:00:55,710 --> 02:00:59,910
arrived, the cops run after him.
He he the cops can't catch him.

1912
02:00:59,910 --> 02:01:04,110
He runs into the burrito joint
stabs two people wounding one.

1913
02:01:05,220 --> 02:01:10,350
One Cook, they're fatally then
he runs up onto the roof. And

1914
02:01:10,350 --> 02:01:15,240
Swan dives while the cops are
trying to you know, are ordering

1915
02:01:15,240 --> 02:01:21,030
him to come down. He Swan dives
off the roof onto his head. And

1916
02:01:21,030 --> 02:01:26,700
people could hear his neck bones
cracking. He's in critical

1917
02:01:26,700 --> 02:01:32,160
condition and of course, in the
hospital but in in custody. And

1918
02:01:32,190 --> 02:01:35,250
you know what people in Austin
think right away is Who is this

1919
02:01:35,250 --> 02:01:40,470
guy? Everyone thinks he's
homeless or transient that

1920
02:01:40,470 --> 02:01:47,250
sparked an immediate Rao between
the governor of Texas Abbott and

1921
02:01:47,250 --> 02:01:53,820
the mayor of Austin. And Mayor
Adler. And Abbott tweeted, there

1922
02:01:53,820 --> 02:01:58,200
we go 21st century diplomacy. He
tweeted and said, Holy crap,

1923
02:01:58,560 --> 02:02:02,370
I'll bet you this guy was
homeless once again. The mayor

1924
02:02:02,370 --> 02:02:06,720
of Austin is not protecting his
the people who put them in

1925
02:02:06,720 --> 02:02:13,200
office. And then our mayor turns
around and tweets back. How dare

1926
02:02:13,200 --> 02:02:19,410
you How very dare you assume it
was a homeless person? Or as he

1927
02:02:19,410 --> 02:02:23,610
would say, How dare you assume
it was a person experiencing

1928
02:02:23,610 --> 02:02:28,650
homelessness? Of course it turns
out that that's exactly what it

1929
02:02:28,650 --> 02:02:29,160
was.

1930
02:02:29,190 --> 02:02:32,130
But I asked him Police say the
man accused of carrying out a

1931
02:02:32,130 --> 02:02:36,870
deadly stabbing attack Friday is
homeless. That information being

1932
02:02:36,870 --> 02:02:41,070
shared as the governor continues
his attack on Austin's policies

1933
02:02:41,070 --> 02:02:44,100
toward people living on the
streets. He most recently

1934
02:02:44,100 --> 02:02:48,420
tweeted today quote, the city's
top job is public safety. And

1935
02:02:48,420 --> 02:02:51,540
they are failing. kickstands.
Caitlin carmudi taught to

1936
02:02:51,540 --> 02:02:53,910
Austin's mayor who's pushing
back.

1937
02:02:54,330 --> 02:02:58,650
people realise that there's not
a link between homelessness and

1938
02:02:58,650 --> 02:03:02,400
criminality. That's like
suggesting that all all

1939
02:03:02,430 --> 02:03:06,420
immigrants are rapists. It's
just not true. And it is.

1940
02:03:07,710 --> 02:03:11,310
This is Mayor Adler's response
to Governor Abbott's tweets. We

1941
02:03:11,310 --> 02:03:13,980
talked to him while he's in New
York Hospital waiting for his

1942
02:03:13,980 --> 02:03:17,340
daughter to give birth. He felt
it necessary to respond to the

1943
02:03:17,340 --> 02:03:20,430
governor's attacks on Austin
policies towards homeless

1944
02:03:20,430 --> 02:03:24,330
people. This comes after a 27
year old man attacks three

1945
02:03:24,330 --> 02:03:27,690
people in a South Congress
shopping centre killing one

1946
02:03:28,050 --> 02:03:31,440
shortly after Governor Abbott
suggested that the suspect would

1947
02:03:31,440 --> 02:03:35,430
likely be a homeless person.
Mayor Adler called that

1948
02:03:35,430 --> 02:03:39,450
suggestion, irresponsible. And
today APD confirmed this

1949
02:03:39,450 --> 02:03:42,690
suspected killer is homeless
today Governor Abbott had a

1950
02:03:42,690 --> 02:03:46,320
series of tweets suggesting that
the city must ensure its

1951
02:03:46,320 --> 02:03:50,250
homeless policies doesn't
endanger innocent people. That

1952
02:03:50,250 --> 02:03:52,200
Mayor Adler's response. Most

1953
02:03:52,200 --> 02:03:55,110
of the crimes in this city are
not committed by people

1954
02:03:55,110 --> 02:03:59,370
experiencing homelessness. So to
demonise people that way can

1955
02:03:59,370 --> 02:04:03,150
make us scared of people does a
real disservice to the

1956
02:04:03,150 --> 02:04:03,900
community.

1957
02:04:03,930 --> 02:04:07,200
Mayor Adler says instead of a
Twitter feud, he'd like to speak

1958
02:04:07,200 --> 02:04:08,880
to the governor face to face.

1959
02:04:09,240 --> 02:04:12,810
I want the state to be our
partner how to be working with

1960
02:04:12,810 --> 02:04:13,260
us.

1961
02:04:13,710 --> 02:04:17,160
Well, I'll tell you not not a
lot of credibility left for the

1962
02:04:17,160 --> 02:04:19,110
mayor here in Austin. Yeah,

1963
02:04:19,140 --> 02:04:23,370
well voting for him i i really
liked the way he sticks to the

1964
02:04:23,370 --> 02:04:27,690
memes. Oh, the security fencing
homelessness he can't can't just

1965
02:04:27,690 --> 02:04:29,130
cut it down to homeless Oh,

1966
02:04:29,160 --> 02:04:31,710
no, you can't you have to say x
and you have to say neighbours

1967
02:04:31,740 --> 02:04:35,370
experiencing homelessness. But
the problem is just like

1968
02:04:35,370 --> 02:04:40,200
California cities here now as
well. They've you know, there's

1969
02:04:40,200 --> 02:04:44,820
no prosecution for small crime.
There's no prosecution for small

1970
02:04:44,850 --> 02:04:48,210
assault. There was a woman and
it could have been the same guy

1971
02:04:48,210 --> 02:04:51,270
for all I know a couple of weeks
ago was assaulted on this thing

1972
02:04:51,270 --> 02:04:55,920
of the South first or South
Congress Bridge. And yeah, it's

1973
02:04:55,950 --> 02:05:00,330
become violent because these are
not just you, right? He's Right

1974
02:05:00,360 --> 02:05:02,970
homelessness are people
experiencing homelessness.

1975
02:05:03,360 --> 02:05:08,040
That's not necessarily the
issue. But Austin has become a

1976
02:05:08,040 --> 02:05:10,740
mecca for transients to come
through because it's

1977
02:05:10,770 --> 02:05:13,350
everything's free here free
money camp where you want to do

1978
02:05:13,350 --> 02:05:16,560
what you want. Just because you
can't camp downtown, every

1979
02:05:16,560 --> 02:05:20,790
median of grass now outside of
the downtown area is filled with

1980
02:05:20,790 --> 02:05:26,160
tents, barbecues people parking
their, their cars on the median.

1981
02:05:28,110 --> 02:05:32,970
Our mailbox was broken into
yesterday. As you know, we don't

1982
02:05:32,970 --> 02:05:36,240
have mailboxes we have one up at
the top of the the top of the

1983
02:05:36,240 --> 02:05:41,700
street, broken open all the mail
stolen packages ripped open.

1984
02:05:43,500 --> 02:05:46,170
Which is a federal crime I might
add. So that's Thank

1985
02:05:46,170 --> 02:05:49,920
you. Thank you. Yes, that's not
just some some petty crime.

1986
02:05:50,550 --> 02:05:54,960
Where's the ring doorbell now?
Where's all that? But you know,

1987
02:05:54,960 --> 02:05:57,750
you don't see the cops running
around now saying, Oh, do you

1988
02:05:57,750 --> 02:06:00,210
have any ring doorbell video and
doorbell and any video and you

1989
02:06:00,240 --> 02:06:02,400
know, they don't even show up
for it?

1990
02:06:03,720 --> 02:06:07,650
Well, we have a still did you
California versus Boston, we

1991
02:06:07,650 --> 02:06:11,790
have a new issue. And the left
media left leaning media leases

1992
02:06:11,790 --> 02:06:15,270
on this one is not quite the
same as what you just described.

1993
02:06:15,450 --> 02:06:19,020
But it's it's an issue because
it's going to cause somebody. It

1994
02:06:19,020 --> 02:06:23,910
could be anybody a lot of money.
Ah, yes, I heard about this one.

1995
02:06:24,030 --> 02:06:26,880
It's another money grabbing.
Here's a report from one of the

1996
02:06:26,910 --> 02:06:29,790
stations I think in Southern
California, on the new

1997
02:06:29,790 --> 02:06:31,560
California water law.

1998
02:06:31,800 --> 02:06:34,230
All right, so many laws get
considered each and every year,

1999
02:06:34,230 --> 02:06:36,060
they're discussed, and then
they're passed.

2000
02:06:36,120 --> 02:06:38,100
All right, this one, I'm not
sure how I feel about this,

2001
02:06:38,280 --> 02:06:41,160
you're not going to be allowed
to shower and do a load of

2002
02:06:41,160 --> 02:06:42,450
laundry in the same day,

2003
02:06:42,480 --> 02:06:47,250
I had the same misgivings, doing
a load of laundry takes about 40

2004
02:06:47,250 --> 02:06:51,030
to 50 gallons of water, taking a
shower for about eight minutes

2005
02:06:51,060 --> 02:06:54,240
takes about 17 gallons of water.
Well, there's a limitation on

2006
02:06:54,240 --> 02:06:58,530
your daily use of water of 55
gallons per day. So that means

2007
02:06:58,560 --> 02:07:00,720
if you're taking a shower and
you're doing a load of laundry,

2008
02:07:00,840 --> 02:07:04,500
you can't do both without being
in violation of the law. There

2009
02:07:04,500 --> 02:07:07,620
are some exceptions about this.
You can't do both without being

2010
02:07:07,620 --> 02:07:11,250
in violation of the law. There
are some exceptions about this.

2011
02:07:11,250 --> 02:07:14,190
There are some caveats. For
instance, if you have a multi

2012
02:07:14,190 --> 02:07:16,800
person household, if you have
four people in your household or

2013
02:07:16,800 --> 02:07:21,090
three people in household, that
55 gallon limit per day applies

2014
02:07:21,210 --> 02:07:26,310
it for each person. So you could
do a load of laundry. If you

2015
02:07:26,310 --> 02:07:35,670
have a multi person household
and Mark kreski. Well, you can

2016
02:07:35,670 --> 02:07:38,970
actually see your your water
uses on a daily rate with your

2017
02:07:38,970 --> 02:07:41,760
water metre. Now there are
actually fines available for

2018
02:07:41,760 --> 02:07:46,560
this as well. Your first your
violation is $1,000 per each day

2019
02:07:46,620 --> 02:07:48,000
that you're in violation. Wait,

2020
02:07:48,000 --> 02:07:49,410
who made this law?

2021
02:07:51,120 --> 02:07:53,700
It's the state legislature the
governor signed this into effect

2022
02:07:53,700 --> 02:07:57,120
goes into effect January 1. Now
there's also another caveat. If

2023
02:07:57,120 --> 02:07:59,160
we're in drought conditions, and
the governor declares an

2024
02:07:59,160 --> 02:08:02,580
emergency that fine can go up to
$10,000. So be careful.

2025
02:08:03,570 --> 02:08:06,570
You could change your word to
Serenity to anger now. You're

2026
02:08:06,570 --> 02:08:08,130
not gonna be able to shower in
2020.

2027
02:08:08,610 --> 02:08:10,620
I'm gonna pick doing laundry
over showering so

2028
02:08:10,620 --> 02:08:14,070
all of a sudden I can smoke
marijuana as much as I want but

2029
02:08:14,070 --> 02:08:17,310
I can't take a shower. Yeah.
Absolutely.

2030
02:08:19,980 --> 02:08:23,550
Yeah, I saw this and I clipped
it as well. That's KTLA the last

2031
02:08:23,580 --> 02:08:27,930
very famous Los Angeles station.
It's what was most fascinating

2032
02:08:27,930 --> 02:08:33,750
to me is the female anchor says,
Well, who made this law? Excuse

2033
02:08:33,750 --> 02:08:38,280
me? Hello. Hello, news lady.
You're supposed to be on top of

2034
02:08:38,280 --> 02:08:40,650
this. This was a state
legislator and it was signed

2035
02:08:40,650 --> 02:08:44,850
into law. And they can
completely track this right down

2036
02:08:44,850 --> 02:08:48,210
to your micro gallon. They know
exactly how much you'd how many

2037
02:08:48,210 --> 02:08:51,780
people live in there. Two people
that's 110 calot gallons a day.

2038
02:08:51,780 --> 02:08:58,020
Don't go over it. Oh, yeah.
Fines are coming. Yeah. Well,

2039
02:08:58,020 --> 02:09:00,450
luckily you don't pay that much.
So you won't have much trouble

2040
02:09:00,450 --> 02:09:01,320
with the line. Never

2041
02:09:01,320 --> 02:09:02,850
bad. I just use I used

2042
02:09:04,560 --> 02:09:07,770
to no agenda. Imagine all the
people who could do that. Oh

2043
02:09:07,770 --> 02:09:08,670
yeah, that'd be fun

2044
02:09:16,680 --> 02:09:19,170
you know, you don't need to
break bait if you use Dr.

2045
02:09:19,170 --> 02:09:19,800
Bronner's.

2046
02:09:21,120 --> 02:09:23,070
Doesn't it require some water?

2047
02:09:23,970 --> 02:09:27,480
No to stuff doesn't get some
unbelievable fabulous. I

2048
02:09:27,480 --> 02:09:29,280
know I just wipe it

2049
02:09:29,280 --> 02:09:34,710
on. And wipe it off. Use a
squeegee. Yeah. Let's start off

2050
02:09:34,710 --> 02:09:38,670
with stanking a few people for
sure. 1205 Starting with Mike,

2051
02:09:39,000 --> 02:09:41,910
Nick Kalai a chuck

2052
02:09:41,940 --> 02:09:45,720
Nikolai Nikolai Chuck Nicola,
Nicola, Nicola Isaac.

2053
02:09:46,860 --> 02:09:50,820
He says he's, by the way one of
my one of the guys that tracks

2054
02:09:50,820 --> 02:09:54,540
the newsletter. And he's got a
lot of people that didn't get

2055
02:09:54,540 --> 02:09:55,260
the news. Oh yeah,

2056
02:09:55,259 --> 02:09:58,349
I got a second mail email from
you. So we had another problem

2057
02:09:58,349 --> 02:09:59,969
with the with the email reaching
out

2058
02:10:00,000 --> 02:10:02,340
Last time I tried to send my pay
here, I'll give you a little

2059
02:10:02,340 --> 02:10:05,370
background on this. I'm trying
to figure out how many emails

2060
02:10:05,370 --> 02:10:09,180
just aren't getting to the place
at all, which I think is a

2061
02:10:09,180 --> 02:10:13,620
problem MailChimp. And so I've
been discussing this over

2062
02:10:13,620 --> 02:10:16,290
various second secondary
mailings, and people are the

2063
02:10:16,290 --> 02:10:19,470
everyone who writes it. Now I
got it. I don't care if you got

2064
02:10:19,470 --> 02:10:23,310
it. So i This time I came up
with the bright idea, which was,

2065
02:10:23,970 --> 02:10:27,570
email me if you didn't get it?
Well, I know I always say that.

2066
02:10:28,710 --> 02:10:31,470
The problem was everyone emailed
me anyway, whether they got it

2067
02:10:31,470 --> 02:10:35,730
or not. But this time, I added
the stupid easy thing I should

2068
02:10:35,730 --> 02:10:40,590
have always done, which was use
the subject line. Yeah, I didn't

2069
02:10:40,590 --> 02:10:43,650
get the email. Yeah. So that
way, I can sort out the people

2070
02:10:43,650 --> 02:10:46,320
who just want to chat. And
people who actually didn't get

2071
02:10:46,320 --> 02:10:48,960
the email and it made it a lot
easier net, and I can see it was

2072
02:10:48,960 --> 02:10:51,780
like 20 or 30 people, which
means it just as tip of the

2073
02:10:51,780 --> 02:10:56,550
iceberg, because not everybody's
even gonna bother. Right. But so

2074
02:10:56,550 --> 02:10:58,830
they're not getting the mail out
or something. There's something

2075
02:10:58,860 --> 02:11:02,490
I miss the way I see it, because
if you're not getting it at all,

2076
02:11:02,580 --> 02:11:05,820
even in your spam box, yeah,
there's something wrong.

2077
02:11:06,000 --> 02:11:09,090
Well, you know, because I've
been working with a lot of email

2078
02:11:09,090 --> 02:11:14,310
in my, with my workflows on
Linux. I've noticed that in

2079
02:11:14,310 --> 02:11:20,310
particularly, Google Gmail is
being very, very stringent with

2080
02:11:20,340 --> 02:11:27,810
the demark. Familiar with demark
No, I'm not d N R A C. Yeah,

2081
02:11:27,810 --> 02:11:34,170
this is a it's like a policy.
What is demark stands for domain

2082
02:11:34,200 --> 02:11:40,260
Message Authentication
reporting. That's demark and

2083
02:11:40,290 --> 02:11:43,590
there be they've tightened that
up. I've only just started

2084
02:11:43,590 --> 02:11:46,380
looking into it because I know
that I don't have my demark set

2085
02:11:46,380 --> 02:11:50,370
up properly on curry.com So if
MailChimp doesn't have that set

2086
02:11:50,370 --> 02:11:54,210
up properly, if there's one
small and not anomaly, immediate

2087
02:11:54,210 --> 02:11:57,750
nondelivery that I don't even
know if it sends a bounce

2088
02:11:57,750 --> 02:12:02,970
message. So there's once again,
it's mainly Google, but I'm sure

2089
02:12:02,970 --> 02:12:04,380
the others are following suit.

2090
02:12:06,660 --> 02:12:11,160
Whatever Google does, everyone
does. Yeah, that's right. Well,

2091
02:12:11,160 --> 02:12:21,180
that's anyway. He is actually
sir. Raul es que of Paris of the

2092
02:12:21,180 --> 02:12:26,550
prairies from Saskatoon,
obviously, yes. And he, I just

2093
02:12:26,550 --> 02:12:34,020
give him a D douching. Okay.
You've been D deuced. John Roman

2094
02:12:34,020 --> 02:12:39,690
100 bucks. Sir, got Nate,
Sebastopol, California. 6969.

2095

And Mark tanto. Twice a month.

2096

dari 55 to 2510 from the forest,
Wisconsin. Francisco to Haider

2097
02:12:49,950 --> 02:12:59,100
to the 432 Stephen Sunday, Vol.
5333. Michael gates 50 to 80 Oh,

2098
02:12:59,130 --> 02:13:03,930
there's another new news item
Michael gates. So So Bill Gates

2099
02:13:04,020 --> 02:13:08,130
big makes a big stink. Yeah, I
think we should have you know,

2100
02:13:08,310 --> 02:13:11,640
Washington State is one of the
few states like Texas, Florida

2101
02:13:11,640 --> 02:13:15,060
and Nevada. There's a few that
have no personal income tax.

2102
02:13:15,060 --> 02:13:18,960
Yes. No. They have other weird
mechanisms. Washington state

2103
02:13:18,960 --> 02:13:20,280
they use speed traps and they

2104
02:13:20,310 --> 02:13:24,570
get on here here we use property
tax. Well,

2105
02:13:24,570 --> 02:13:29,850
they use property tax too. But
they did. It seems to be better

2106
02:13:29,850 --> 02:13:32,610
run than states with when you
start getting to the state

2107
02:13:32,610 --> 02:13:36,000
income tax. The states get
corrupt and California is the

2108
02:13:36,000 --> 02:13:39,390
worst example. But so Bill Gates
comes out with a big statement

2109
02:13:39,450 --> 02:13:44,010
Warren Washington State now this
is after this guy's already shut

2110
02:13:44,010 --> 02:13:48,660
up shut the lid on this
submarine he's in Washington

2111
02:13:48,660 --> 02:13:51,570
State should have it because he
has no personal income anymore

2112
02:13:51,570 --> 02:13:54,780
at all. He's got a zero he all
his money is just money in the

2113
02:13:54,780 --> 02:13:59,220
bank that he spends. The State
of Washington should have a

2114
02:13:59,370 --> 02:14:03,810
income tax. This is this is
ridiculous of a guy like this to

2115
02:14:03,810 --> 02:14:08,790
say that just bought out. They
got everybody all up in arms.

2116
02:14:08,910 --> 02:14:12,630
So our producer Michael gates
should call his family member

2117
02:14:12,630 --> 02:14:15,090
and tell him to shut up is that
the connection? That's the

2118
02:14:15,090 --> 02:14:22,050
reason why Michael Gates came
with 52 Eric Hokulea and morose

2119
02:14:22,350 --> 02:14:31,950
Doyle $52 Brian Burgess in
Pelican Rapids, Minnesota. You

2120
02:14:32,310 --> 02:14:35,610
5033 So this is an honour to
help produce the show and

2121
02:14:35,610 --> 02:14:40,980
predive provides in depth
analysis. No one even tamps.

2122
02:14:42,210 --> 02:14:45,840
That's right. Robert starts in
San Diego, California. 2020.

2123
02:14:46,080 --> 02:14:52,530
Matthew Grice 5005. And he's got
a happy, happy new year to us

2124
02:14:52,530 --> 02:14:54,780
and he's got a birthdate for
someone he has.

2125
02:14:55,170 --> 02:15:01,050
Well, first of all, this was 73
digit, $3 redos, which comes out

2126
02:15:01,050 --> 02:15:06,270
to 5005 and Oh, his daughter
Freya on the birthday list. Yes,

2127
02:15:06,270 --> 02:15:08,820

02:15:08,820 --> 02:15:11,010

on the list for today.

2129
02:15:11,910 --> 02:15:17,850

folks who are helping us produce
show 1205

2142
02:16:13,440 --> 02:16:17,220
Yes. And everyone under $50. We
see you. We see you there. In

2143
02:16:17,220 --> 02:16:19,320
fact, I think a lot of those
didn't even come through on the

2144
02:16:19,320 --> 02:16:23,220
spreadsheet. John, I'm looking
at. There's nothing under 10 We

2145
02:16:23,220 --> 02:16:26,220
always have fives and fours. I
don't see them on the list

2146
02:16:26,220 --> 02:16:30,960
today. So I'm not sure this was
part of the power outage the

2147
02:16:30,960 --> 02:16:33,810
Tumbleweed tear that Eric the
ship was going through so if we

missed you, which is possible,
then please just email us and

2149

we'll make sure we fix that.
This is this is one that it just

2150
02:16:41,640 --> 02:16:44,400
blame it on the Tumbleweed. We
can't help it at all. But we do

2151
02:16:44,400 --> 02:16:48,120
thank everybody who came in as a
producer today. Thank the execs

reasons of anonymity understood,

2154
02:16:54,900 --> 02:16:57,780
but there's programmes that you
can join in. There's

2155
02:16:57,810 --> 02:17:01,500
subscriptions that are just
smaller amounts at certain

2156
02:17:02,130 --> 02:17:05,760

02:18:39,030 --> 02:18:41,160
in the show notes more
regularly. And thank you very

2176
02:18:41,160 --> 02:18:45,060

02:19:55,440 --> 02:19:58,140
Mimi. I mean,

2194
02:19:58,500 --> 02:20:00,840
while I'm reading the milk from
Meet me. So what are you

2195
02:20:01,140 --> 02:20:03,480
talking about a separate note?
Well,

2196
02:20:03,480 --> 02:20:05,640
why don't you do that then?
Well, I

2197
02:20:05,700 --> 02:20:08,640
find the note so keep reading.
So what I said keep rereading

2198
02:20:08,640 --> 02:20:08,910
for

2199
02:20:08,940 --> 02:20:14,220
now, this is interesting because
I see here's a secondary Long

2200
02:20:14,220 --> 02:20:20,850
Island meet up on the same
Saturday. No, this can't be

2201
02:20:20,850 --> 02:20:25,260
right. The St. James notes I'm
sorry, this is a doubling. So it

2202
02:20:25,260 --> 02:20:28,230
is that there is one Long Island
meetup There you go. That's the

2203
02:20:28,230 --> 02:20:32,850
one at the St. James restaurant
and bar. Then next Thursday, the

2204
02:20:32,850 --> 02:20:36,300
16th. So now we're already a
Thursday a week and a half away

2205
02:20:36,480 --> 02:20:39,780
will be once again the Austin
local 512 meet up it'll be a

2206
02:20:39,780 --> 02:20:44,430
duck's back yard and Sunset
Valley. And that is of course

2207
02:20:44,430 --> 02:20:48,450
there's Scott Baronet of the no
agenda armoury and his wife

2208
02:20:48,450 --> 02:20:52,230
Christine will be organising
that and if you had did not hear

2209
02:20:52,230 --> 02:20:56,490

02:21:08,430 --> 02:21:10,680
Delray Beach and we look forward
to and

2214
02:21:10,680 --> 02:21:15,390
this is the problem. So what
happened and nobody seems to

2215
02:21:15,390 --> 02:21:18,510
respond to Mimi on this and she
just got a mess on her hands and

2216
02:21:18,510 --> 02:21:22,080
she says no one can make a
decision. And she's not going to

2217
02:21:22,080 --> 02:21:25,080
do it because she's gonna get
blamed and she says you're gonna

2218
02:21:25,080 --> 02:21:33,720
have to do it. There are 12345
competing Del Rey meetup. Here's

02:21:55,140 --> 02:21:57,900

2225
02:21:58,590 --> 02:22:01,710
Yeah, yeah. So let's make the
saltwater brewery

2226
02:22:02,130 --> 02:22:05,400
Which one 630 to seven 736

2227
02:22:05,609 --> 02:22:09,599
Can I ask you a question? Why
are you so angry at me what do I

2228
02:22:09,599 --> 02:22:10,469
have to do with this?

2229
02:22:10,500 --> 02:22:13,050
I have to do this. I'm being
firm with the with the

2230
02:22:13,050 --> 02:22:18,330
organisers. Somebody has to make
a decision about which one

2231
02:22:18,330 --> 02:22:21,210
you're going to you're going to
pick saltwater brewery but which

2232
02:22:21,240 --> 02:22:26,550
166 3730 By the way, somebody
else has one that he wants to go

2233
02:22:26,550 --> 02:22:28,710

2235
02:22:31,950 --> 02:22:35,880

that except for the one person

2236
02:22:35,880 --> 02:22:39,120
who had a different one. I'll
see you there. I don't

2237
02:22:39,420 --> 02:22:43,470
Oregon and iser, we're going to

okay? Scott mez and Nick b have

2239
02:22:50,160 --> 02:22:53,610
to contact them and then maybe
you can switch ownership of this

2240
02:22:53,610 --> 02:22:57,180
thing if you want to. But Adam
has decided that is the

2241
02:22:57,180 --> 02:23:03,270
saltwater brewery, 6pm organiser
crystal and David. Yes, there

2242
02:23:03,270 --> 02:23:03,810
you go.

2243
02:23:04,140 --> 02:23:07,770
That wasn't so hard. I'm so
sorry. There was so much angst

2244
02:23:07,770 --> 02:23:13,230
in the divorce household about
meetings. What an actual meeting

2245
02:23:13,230 --> 02:23:15,090
No, no, no, this will not stand

2246
02:23:15,510 --> 02:23:20,190
Yes. Where we had to go to go to
the go. To go to guy which is

2247
02:23:20,190 --> 02:23:25,350
you okay, let me see. Do I have
any of those who come up with

2248
02:23:25,350 --> 02:23:26,130
shot Mouse?

2249
02:23:26,220 --> 02:23:31,410
Oh, oh, here I do see the note
here finally. Oh, yeah. Okay. I

2250
02:23:31,410 --> 02:23:34,470
have Oh man. I love when Mimi
gets all upset.

2251
02:23:34,950 --> 02:23:37,080
It's all for the 21st

2252
02:23:38,370 --> 02:23:42,870
it's February 21. And saltwater
I liked it everyone chose the

2253
02:23:42,870 --> 02:23:47,760
saltwater brewery except for Lou
Lou don't go to Bruce room

2254
02:23:47,760 --> 02:23:49,980
sports grill we'll see it the
saltwater brewery is gonna

2255
02:23:49,980 --> 02:23:53,010
be the saltwater brewery must be
a good place for a meetup if

2256
02:23:53,010 --> 02:23:53,430
everyone's

2257
02:23:53,430 --> 02:23:56,010
thinking that way it's gonna be
a great meet up I think Horowitz

2258
02:23:56,010 --> 02:24:00,330
might show up on by the way,
because he was very concerned

2259
02:24:00,330 --> 02:24:04,050
about this. If Horowitz shows up
everybody pretend you don't know

2260
02:24:04,050 --> 02:24:09,900
who he is. What you do a podcast
with who with YouTube Show with

2261
02:24:09,900 --> 02:24:13,110
Jon to never heard it to make
sure you do that because it's

2262
02:24:13,110 --> 02:24:15,900
very concerned that people
wouldn't know who he was.

2263
02:24:18,210 --> 02:24:21,030
Yeah, and you being the kind
gentleman you are decide to set

2264
02:24:21,030 --> 02:24:23,820
him up exactly. Probably do this
what else

2265
02:24:23,820 --> 02:24:28,170
our friends for. So that is a
current overview. I did want to

2266
02:24:28,170 --> 02:24:31,950
mention the 25th of January as
an additional that'll be in

2267
02:24:31,950 --> 02:24:36,720
Moscow, Russia. So make sure you
get out man. I would love to go

2268
02:24:36,720 --> 02:24:39,810
to one of those. We got we got
to got to do more. More

2269
02:24:39,810 --> 02:24:44,550
travelling this year. I've
decided then a

2270
02:24:45,810 --> 02:24:48,480
I know you're laughing. You say
that every year.

2271
02:24:48,539 --> 02:24:51,569
That's exactly what Tina says. I
want to remind you every year

2272
02:24:51,569 --> 02:24:54,989
you told me we need to travel
more. We now have a map with

2273
02:24:54,989 --> 02:25:00,179
pins in it. It was a Christmas
gift. So I got a big map with

2274
02:25:00,179 --> 02:25:05,759
pins where we're going, Yeah, I
have a meet up report a audio

2275
02:25:05,759 --> 02:25:08,459
report that's really the only
kind that works best for a

2276
02:25:08,459 --> 02:25:12,209
podcast so I appreciate sure

is a rod that no agenda meet up.

Never enough. Had better balls

2300
02:26:24,450 --> 02:26:28,020
up report. I love how they talk
to

2301
02:26:30,750 --> 02:26:34,050
I think that that was one of the
best media reports you've had. I

2302
02:26:34,050 --> 02:26:36,630
think it was introduce yourself
out of the way.

2303
02:26:37,020 --> 02:26:41,790
Yeah, dynamite. Dynamite. Well,
it's also rod Broderick, he

2304
02:26:41,790 --> 02:26:45,000
produced it. So he cut it up
nicely made it all work. I love

2305
02:26:45,000 --> 02:26:47,580
the guy that future night of the
empty paypal account. I think

02:26:47,580 --> 02:26:51,120
that's a great night name.
That's a good name. Yeah. Thank

2307
02:26:51,120 --> 02:26:54,060
you all very much. And remember,
no agenda. meetups.com is where

2308
02:26:54,060 --> 02:26:57,480
you can. Hey, we need some more
people to organise a meet up on

2309
02:26:57,480 --> 02:27:00,330
the 21st Let's see if we can
find some other locations. It'll

2310
02:27:00,330 --> 02:27:07,380
be fun. Or just find something
near you and go attend. It's a

2311
02:27:07,380 --> 02:27:12,720
great opportunity for a trigger
list conversation about anything

2312
02:27:12,780 --> 02:27:17,340
good drinks, across boundaries
across age groups. race, creed,

2313
02:27:17,370 --> 02:27:23,520
religion, background age, you
name it. We're a crazy cult. Go

2314
02:27:23,520 --> 02:27:24,750
find your meet up.

2315
02:27:27,060 --> 02:27:32,910
Ever stink bug update. Well, we
talked about the stink bug. Yes.

2316
02:27:33,360 --> 02:27:35,850
And now nobody knew about
anything going on. But

2317
02:27:35,850 --> 02:27:38,850
apparently the stink bugs have
invaded a good part of

2318
02:27:38,850 --> 02:27:39,960
Washington State.

2319
02:27:39,990 --> 02:27:43,950
This is the Marmorated Stink
Bug, I believe is the force.

2320
02:27:43,950 --> 02:27:48,030
Exactly. I got a lot of emails
from people about your story.

2321
02:27:48,570 --> 02:27:52,260
Apparently yes, they're
everywhere. Brown Marmorated

2322
02:27:52,260 --> 02:27:55,050
Stink Bug is something Darryl
Beetham of paratexts pest

2323
02:27:55,050 --> 02:27:57,480
control has plenty of experience
with

2324
02:27:57,480 --> 02:28:01,530
their a CSGO invader. And they
come in right about now.

2325
02:28:01,560 --> 02:28:05,460
But now when again, and
particularly now, homeowners

2326
02:28:05,460 --> 02:28:09,000
call in with little clue about
this critter, wondering what it

2327
02:28:09,000 --> 02:28:11,520
is where it came from, and
whether it's harmful.

2328
02:28:11,550 --> 02:28:15,060
I do all the multi character
it's like six hospitals and 40

2329
02:28:15,660 --> 02:28:17,070
outpatient centres.

2330
02:28:17,280 --> 02:28:19,770
Originally from Asia, the
stinkbug first crossed our

2331
02:28:19,770 --> 02:28:23,970
border in 2010. Since 2012, it
has spread quickly from Clark

2332
02:28:23,970 --> 02:28:28,170
County to 20. Others working its
way across Washington, a wait

2333
02:28:28,170 --> 02:28:31,650
out the winter and cracks and
crannies of heated homes. And

2334
02:28:31,650 --> 02:28:36,120
then they get busy. I mean, they
propagate over the past month.

2335
02:28:36,300 --> 02:28:40,560
The emails and phone calls have
flooded into WSU researchers

2336
02:28:40,590 --> 02:28:44,640
more than 300 So far, most of
those sightings in King Pierce

2337
02:28:44,640 --> 02:28:45,720
and Thurston counties.

2338
02:28:46,050 --> 02:28:50,370
So what do you do once they're
inside gulps question because

2339
02:28:50,370 --> 02:28:54,330
they will stake either vacuum
up, throw away the bag when

2340
02:28:54,330 --> 02:28:57,630
you're through. Make sure throw
away the bag that when you're

2341
02:28:57,630 --> 02:29:02,040
through vacuuming because your
back and will wreak for weeks.

2342
02:29:02,130 --> 02:29:06,180
The real threat is outside where
they're ready to gorge on trees

2343
02:29:06,180 --> 02:29:09,870
and shrubs and they don't
discriminate. They decimate

2344
02:29:10,290 --> 02:29:13,110
which is why agriculture experts
hope you will help them keep

2345
02:29:13,110 --> 02:29:16,350
track in Seattle, Greg Copeland
keep fighting.

2346
02:29:17,130 --> 02:29:20,760
So a question how just looking
at these pictures how big is a

2347
02:29:20,760 --> 02:29:23,040
mark? We don't have them in
Texas. I don't think how big is

2348
02:29:23,040 --> 02:29:25,950
one of these things yet. How big
are they?

2349
02:29:27,150 --> 02:29:28,860
The size of a thumbtack.

2350
02:29:29,460 --> 02:29:31,410
Okay, so relatively small.

2351
02:29:33,750 --> 02:29:38,460
Maybe that's what I could tell
the size of some tech now. Do

2352
02:29:38,460 --> 02:29:42,240
you remember? Because this is I
think we've made went to two

2353
02:29:42,240 --> 02:29:46,320
cycles of these bugs stories bug
get ins. I think it was probably

2354
02:29:46,320 --> 02:29:50,550
two years ago maybe three bed
bugs. Yeah, it was sorry after

2355
02:29:50,550 --> 02:29:54,600
story about bedbugs and hotels
and bed bugs and bed bugs and

2356
02:29:54,600 --> 02:29:57,960
bedbugs and that what happened
to all the bedbugs die I can

2357
02:29:57,960 --> 02:30:01,440
nest story just dropped off to
just now Athan, it wasn't scary

2358
02:30:01,440 --> 02:30:05,760
enough. The apparently the stink
bugs are now the story. So it's

2359
02:30:05,760 --> 02:30:06,720
always some bug.

2360
02:30:07,290 --> 02:30:09,630
Now can you eat them? Are they
tasty?

2361
02:30:10,350 --> 02:30:14,340
Of course not. If they stink and
they make a vacuum cleaner reek.

2362
02:30:14,970 --> 02:30:18,570
Curly is a nauseating smell.
Because i That's why it's called

2363
02:30:18,570 --> 02:30:19,500
a stink.

2364
02:30:19,710 --> 02:30:23,250
Yeah, I've definitely seen this
type of bug. It looks familiar.

2365
02:30:23,250 --> 02:30:25,560
But I don't think I've ever seen
one here in Texas here right

2366
02:30:25,560 --> 02:30:28,740
yet, but, and I'd like to know,
I'd like to know a little bit

2367
02:30:28,740 --> 02:30:30,630
more. What is this? What

2368
02:30:30,630 --> 02:30:32,460
does it say? We shouldn't send
you a few meetings

2369
02:30:33,750 --> 02:30:36,870
for yourself. Oh, maybe maybe we
won't do that. That's not a good

2370
02:30:36,870 --> 02:30:47,340
idea at all. Updates, Epstein
updates. The apparently FBI is

2371
02:30:47,340 --> 02:30:52,110
now officially looking to talk
to some people like wow, they

2372
02:30:52,110 --> 02:30:55,860
figured maybe it'd be good idea
to go have a chat with Elaine

2373
02:30:55,860 --> 02:30:59,580
Maxwell and see if she had any
involvement in any of this

2374
02:30:59,580 --> 02:31:00,060
stuff.

2375
02:31:00,090 --> 02:31:05,220
Financing Jeffrey Epstein trial
on sex trafficking charges, but

2376
02:31:05,220 --> 02:31:08,430
the case isn't closed. Reuters
has learned the FBI is

2377
02:31:08,430 --> 02:31:11,310
investigating people who may
have been accomplices to

2378
02:31:11,310 --> 02:31:15,150
Epstein's illegal behaviour. to
law enforcement sources told

2379
02:31:15,150 --> 02:31:18,450
Reuters the principal focus is
British socialite Ghislaine

2380
02:31:18,450 --> 02:31:23,310
Maxwell seen here in 2013.
Maxwell has not been accused of

2381
02:31:23,310 --> 02:31:26,820
criminal wrongdoing. Her lawyers
did not respond to a request for

2382
02:31:26,820 --> 02:31:30,360
comment. One of Epstein's
accusers, Virginia gufram said

2383
02:31:30,360 --> 02:31:33,960
in a civil lawsuit that Maxwell
recruited her into Epstein's

2384
02:31:33,960 --> 02:31:37,500
circle. And so she introduced
you to Jeffrey Epstein. Yeah, so

2385
02:31:37,500 --> 02:31:40,410
you were hired to be a misuse
for him. Initially. Yeah,

2386
02:31:40,560 --> 02:31:44,280
Maxwell has called Gu phrase
allegations lies who fray claims

2387
02:31:44,280 --> 02:31:47,280
Epstein forced her to have sex
with friends, including

2388
02:31:47,280 --> 02:31:52,260
Britain's Prince Andrew. Andrew
59 also categorically denies the

2389
02:31:52,260 --> 02:31:55,410
accusations and has said he has
no recollection of meeting

2390
02:31:55,410 --> 02:31:58,740
gouffre. Law enforcement sources
said the FBI is focuses on

2391
02:31:58,740 --> 02:32:02,430
people who facilitated Epstein
and that Andrew does not fit

2392
02:32:02,460 --> 02:32:06,210
that category. Somehow

2393
02:32:06,210 --> 02:32:08,850
I think they're just never
really going to talk to Elaine

2394
02:32:08,850 --> 02:32:13,530
Maxwell or as they say, Well,
this a socialite British

2395
02:32:13,530 --> 02:32:17,340
socialite, now she's protected,
she's protected. She's

2396
02:32:17,340 --> 02:32:20,460
protected. She's a spook. She's
protected by multiple

2397
02:32:20,460 --> 02:32:25,380
intelligence agencies. And we'll
never know anything. However,

2398
02:32:25,440 --> 02:32:29,640
tonight. 60 minutes is promising
something new, Sharon

2399
02:32:29,640 --> 02:32:33,090
Alfonsi has investigated
Epstein's death for five months,

2400
02:32:33,390 --> 02:32:36,870
and reveals what happened in the
moments after his body was

2401
02:32:36,870 --> 02:32:40,290
found. What did the prison
guards do with Jeffrey Epstein's

2402
02:32:40,290 --> 02:32:40,740
body?

2403
02:32:40,770 --> 02:32:44,250
So, immediately after they
discovered him, they took him to

2404
02:32:44,250 --> 02:32:49,020
the hospital. They were trying
to do CPR on him. About an hour

2405
02:32:49,020 --> 02:32:51,630
after he got to the hospital,
they declared him officially

2406
02:32:51,630 --> 02:32:55,050
dead, but 730 And then he was
taken to the morgue where they

2407
02:32:55,050 --> 02:32:57,660
did the autopsy the next day.
What do we know about what was

2408
02:32:57,660 --> 02:33:01,080
found in Jeffrey Epstein's jail
cell. So it's interesting, you

2409
02:33:01,080 --> 02:33:04,860
would think that it would be
sparse right? This is a federal

2410
02:33:05,070 --> 02:33:08,400
prison high security. What we
have learned through our

2411
02:33:08,400 --> 02:33:12,450
reporting is that there was
multiple sheets in there lots of

2412
02:33:12,450 --> 02:33:17,160
bedding, and electrical cord,
prescription medicine. There was

2413
02:33:17,160 --> 02:33:20,790
actually notes and a paper he
had written a note. So in the

2414
02:33:20,790 --> 02:33:22,530
piece, you were heard saying
that a guard

2415
02:33:22,830 --> 02:33:27,330
was saying breathe, Jeffrey
breathe. So this was widely

2416
02:33:27,330 --> 02:33:27,630
known

2417
02:33:27,630 --> 02:33:30,180
what was happening in the prison
are we aren't sure. Well, we

2418
02:33:30,180 --> 02:33:33,960
know the way that the prison was
set up. He was in a secure area

2419
02:33:33,990 --> 02:33:37,800
where there were about eight
cells. And so we have heard and

2420
02:33:37,830 --> 02:33:40,890
our sources tell us that the
guards could be overheard saying

2421
02:33:40,890 --> 02:33:44,190
breathe Epstein breathe and
what's kind of areas that after

2422
02:33:44,190 --> 02:33:47,970
that the prisoners that were in
that secure area all started

2423
02:33:47,970 --> 02:33:49,800
chanting, breathe, Epstein
breathe.

2424
02:33:49,800 --> 02:33:52,380
So the first day the prisoners
other prisoners were aware of

2425
02:33:52,380 --> 02:33:53,100
what was going on.

2426
02:33:53,130 --> 02:33:56,040
They knew something was going
on. It's you know, the doors are

2427
02:33:56,040 --> 02:33:58,530
blocked. They probably couldn't
see that much. But certainly

2428
02:33:58,530 --> 02:33:59,370
they heard the commotion

2429
02:33:59,400 --> 02:34:02,190
that were there. Was there video
surveillance in there in that

2430
02:34:02,190 --> 02:34:02,460
area?

2431
02:34:02,490 --> 02:34:04,260
It's a great question. We know
that there were video

2432
02:34:04,260 --> 02:34:07,620
surveillance facing the guards
desk, which is outside of the

2433
02:34:07,620 --> 02:34:12,810
area where he was. We are told
that the video facing the cells

2434
02:34:12,810 --> 02:34:16,380
the video that might have seen
his cell door was corrupted. It

2435
02:34:16,380 --> 02:34:20,130
was corrupted, meaning we don't
know. Okay, good question.

2436
02:34:21,120 --> 02:34:24,840
No problem finding ring doorbell
video of anything in the fucking

2437
02:34:24,840 --> 02:34:30,570
universe. But oh, this one's
corrupted in the jail. And he

2438
02:34:30,570 --> 02:34:37,350
had electrical cords and she had
every This is an abomination. It

2439
02:34:37,350 --> 02:34:40,560
truly is an abomination and it's
insulting to people's

2440
02:34:40,560 --> 02:34:41,160
intelligence.

2441
02:34:41,580 --> 02:34:45,600
Yeah, but then again, what's
new? What's new with this story?

2442
02:34:45,660 --> 02:34:48,000
I didn't know I didn't know they
had all this. He had all that

2443
02:34:48,000 --> 02:34:54,030
stuff in his cell. Well, even
so, but that's kind of pertinent

2444
02:34:54,060 --> 02:34:57,480
to how someone kills themselves
to lie

2445
02:34:57,480 --> 02:35:00,450
ever said they saw the cord
wrapped around his neck You

2446
02:35:00,780 --> 02:35:03,540
always imagine somebody in there
choking him saying Breathe,

2447
02:35:03,570 --> 02:35:04,200
breathe.

2448
02:35:05,430 --> 02:35:09,060
That actually think is the best
theory ever. The guy is standing

2449
02:35:09,060 --> 02:35:11,400
there saying breathe Epstein
while he's choking him that I

2450
02:35:11,400 --> 02:35:13,260
think is is something to look
at.

2451
02:35:13,260 --> 02:35:14,280
Imagine it Yeah.

2452
02:35:16,320 --> 02:35:20,070
Yeah. And I don't, I don't
expect much. Not expecting.

2453
02:35:20,100 --> 02:35:23,010
I'm not even going to watch it.
I watch a football game instead.

2454
02:35:23,070 --> 02:35:24,720
Well, you do that. Oh, watch.

2455
02:35:24,750 --> 02:35:28,230
I have an old clip that I want
to get out of the way. This is

2456
02:35:28,230 --> 02:35:32,160
going to be our last clip. Yeah.
Okay, well, then we can go back

2457
02:35:32,160 --> 02:35:35,880
to 2016. I never heard this clip
we'd ever played on the show

2458
02:35:35,880 --> 02:35:42,120
that I know of. This is before
Trump was even elected. He had

2459
02:35:42,120 --> 02:35:46,440
just been nominated president.
And there was a discussion with

2460
02:35:46,440 --> 02:35:47,400
Harry Reid.

2461
02:35:48,540 --> 02:35:51,270
He's he hasn't been elected.
He'd been nominated president.

2462
02:35:51,270 --> 02:35:52,470
What what are what did you

2463
02:35:52,470 --> 02:35:56,040
just say? He's not been elected
yet. This is before the

2464
02:35:56,040 --> 02:35:58,230
election? Oh, yes. The
nomination? Okay.

2465
02:35:58,230 --> 02:36:02,430
He's the nominee for the
Republicans got it. So he just,

2466
02:36:02,700 --> 02:36:05,670
she's just a new nominee. So
he's not any big thing. But

2467
02:36:05,670 --> 02:36:08,790
there he is. And this is the
kind of thing that was going on

2468
02:36:08,790 --> 02:36:12,360
during that era, with Trump just
got nominated. Here's what the

2469
02:36:12,360 --> 02:36:13,470
Democrats are doing.

2470
02:36:13,560 --> 02:36:16,140
It's obvious that he doesn't
know what he's talking about.

2471
02:36:16,770 --> 02:36:20,760
It's obvious he can't control
his mind or his tongue. Well,

2472
02:36:20,760 --> 02:36:24,420
I've suggested if now because
he's the nominee for the party.

2473
02:36:25,230 --> 02:36:28,110
And he gets his entitled to
briefings from the CIA, for

2474
02:36:28,110 --> 02:36:31,920
example. I told him, I said
publicly giving fake briefings,

2475
02:36:32,100 --> 02:36:34,560
pretend your briefing, don't
tell them anything that you

2476
02:36:34,560 --> 02:36:37,620
don't want to get out. And
that's how I feel about it. I

2477
02:36:37,620 --> 02:36:41,490
think the man is a loose cannon.
I think he's done so much to

2478
02:36:41,490 --> 02:36:45,810
hurt our country with our
international relations already,

2479
02:36:45,870 --> 02:36:48,810
but he's the Republican nominee.
Isn't he entitled to get those

2480
02:36:48,810 --> 02:36:51,570
briefings? Give him fake
briefings? What does that even

2481
02:36:51,570 --> 02:36:53,910
mean? It means they'll tell him
stuff, he won't know the

2482
02:36:53,910 --> 02:36:55,620
difference. You're basically
telling the intelligence

2483
02:36:55,620 --> 02:37:00,420
community to lie down. I, I'm
not gonna lie to you, but I

2484
02:37:00,420 --> 02:37:01,470
still have to tell you
everything.

2485
02:37:04,740 --> 02:37:08,520
I hadn't heard that clip. Is
that one of ours? No.

2486
02:37:08,820 --> 02:37:12,990
I found it on the interwebs.
Well, I kinda was surprised when

2487
02:37:12,990 --> 02:37:16,200
I heard I had no idea this was
gone that far back. He's already

2488
02:37:16,200 --> 02:37:18,450
ruined the relations with the
world and they just got

2489
02:37:18,450 --> 02:37:22,110
nominated. And this is where
this is where they're headed

2490
02:37:22,110 --> 02:37:24,570
with it. And this is where it
began. I think this predates

2491
02:37:24,570 --> 02:37:27,600
even near stuff that was just
prior to the election.

2492
02:37:27,630 --> 02:37:32,790
Well, just before the New Year,
Al Green representative Al Green

2493
02:37:32,790 --> 02:37:37,530
of Texas, who has put his foot
in his mouth multiple times when

2494
02:37:37,530 --> 02:37:41,400
it comes to impeachment. He is
of course, the the man who said,

2495
02:37:41,520 --> 02:37:44,040
Well, if we don't impeach him
Hill hill when he'll be

2496
02:37:44,040 --> 02:37:48,660
reelected, which is, I think,
kind of the money quote for

2497
02:37:48,660 --> 02:37:54,330
2019. But just before the New
Year's, he's on with Chris Hayes

2498
02:37:54,360 --> 02:37:59,340
on MSNBC, talking about the
genesis of impeachment, and

2499
02:37:59,370 --> 02:38:03,360
when, when, when the decision
was really made that you know,

2500
02:38:03,390 --> 02:38:04,950
this guy needs to be impeached
and

2501
02:38:04,950 --> 02:38:08,790
levelled against Democrats
during this entire affair,

2502
02:38:08,790 --> 02:38:10,890
particularly since September
when the formal Impeachment

2503
02:38:11,010 --> 02:38:13,560
Inquiry started. And you you
play a starring role in those

2504
02:38:13,560 --> 02:38:16,530
charges. I mean, the argument
goes like this of how of House

2505
02:38:16,530 --> 02:38:19,110
Republicans and Trump and his
allies the President has allies

2506
02:38:19,110 --> 02:38:21,780
is basically the Democrats
wanting to impeach Donald Trump

2507
02:38:21,780 --> 02:38:24,960
from day one, they cast about
looking for a set of facts that

2508
02:38:24,960 --> 02:38:27,750
they could plausibly use to do
it. And all of it was pre

2509
02:38:27,750 --> 02:38:30,660
textual and reverse engineered
to get to this point, exhibit

2510
02:38:30,660 --> 02:38:33,240
one, Congressman Al Green, who's
been calling for the man's

2511
02:38:33,240 --> 02:38:36,540
impeachment for two years now.
What's your response to that

2512
02:38:36,540 --> 02:38:37,050
charge?

2513
02:38:37,919 --> 02:38:41,429
Well, the genesis of
impeachment, to be very candid

2514
02:38:41,429 --> 02:38:46,289
with you was when the President
was running for office, and he

2515
02:38:46,289 --> 02:38:50,489
had members of his own party to
talk about his unfitness to hold

2516
02:38:50,489 --> 02:38:51,389
office.

2517
02:38:51,419 --> 02:38:55,919
So when he was running, before
he was even the nominee, we knew

2518
02:38:55,919 --> 02:38:57,149
we had to impeach him.

2519
02:38:59,310 --> 02:39:02,610
Yeah, I pretty much says it all
in this Harry Reid thing. I

2520
02:39:02,610 --> 02:39:05,400
mean, this guy's were these
Democrats are not going to let

2521
02:39:05,400 --> 02:39:12,000
this guy Wow, ever just, it's
pretty astonishing, actually.

2522
02:39:12,030 --> 02:39:15,090
But it's a great time to be
alive an even better time to be

2523
02:39:15,090 --> 02:39:18,660
a podcaster. Would you agree?

2524
02:39:19,290 --> 02:39:22,230
I would say there's nothing else
that you could do. If you want

2525
02:39:22,230 --> 02:39:24,840
to get information out. You have
to be a podcaster because the

2526
02:39:24,840 --> 02:39:27,030
media is not going to or the
mainstream is not going to pick

2527
02:39:27,030 --> 02:39:29,820
up on it. No, they won't. They
just won't run with it because

2528
02:39:29,910 --> 02:39:34,110
it's against some narrative,
that unspoken narrative that I

2529
02:39:34,110 --> 02:39:37,050
guess everybody internalises and
then you end up with what you

2530
02:39:37,050 --> 02:39:38,130
get, which is crap.

2531
02:39:38,880 --> 02:39:41,760
So if you're looking for non
crap, but a whole lot of

2532
02:39:41,760 --> 02:39:44,790

2548
02:40:54,600 --> 02:40:55,950
Rouhani is away Goodbye.

2549
02:41:00,630 --> 02:41:02,820
Good evening, everybody in the
United States is once again

2550
02:41:02,820 --> 02:41:05,340
attacking Iraq sort of as like a
big boulder sitting in the

2551
02:41:05,340 --> 02:41:06,720
middle of the road. Yes, Bill.

2552
02:41:07,320 --> 02:41:10,020
But we're hearing as a series
that we're hearing a series of

2553
02:41:10,020 --> 02:41:10,680
very loud in

2554
02:41:12,600 --> 02:41:15,720
the aftermath shows an attack
that was deliberate and

2555
02:41:15,720 --> 02:41:19,560
sustained. With around a half
dozen explosions, the Americans

2556
02:41:19,560 --> 02:41:20,190
firing with

2557
02:41:20,580 --> 02:41:25,260
T land missiles off show. He
want us to declare war. We took

2558
02:41:25,260 --> 02:41:28,650
action last night to stop a war

2559
02:41:28,680 --> 02:41:33,090
prevent another Gulf War we did
not cause were acting today. It

2560
02:41:33,090 --> 02:41:35,910
is less likely that we will face
these dangerous

2561
02:41:35,940 --> 02:41:39,600
in the future. He was plotting
attacks against Americans. But

2562
02:41:39,600 --> 02:41:40,110
now we

2563
02:41:40,110 --> 02:41:44,610
increased America ability to
prevent future acts of violence

2564
02:41:44,670 --> 02:41:45,360
and aggression.

2565
02:41:45,390 --> 02:41:49,680
Last night and my direction the
United States military executed

2566
02:41:49,680 --> 02:41:52,800
a flawless strike that
terminated the terrorist

2567
02:41:52,800 --> 02:41:53,520
ringleader

2568
02:41:53,550 --> 02:41:56,700
earlier today I ordered
America's Armed Forces to strike

2569
02:41:56,700 --> 02:41:58,950
military and security targets in
Iraq.

2570
02:41:58,980 --> 02:42:01,980
Ladies and gentlemen, I know I
sound like a broken record to

2571
02:42:01,980 --> 02:42:04,950
many of you the last six years
speaking so much about Iraq. If

2572
02:42:04,950 --> 02:42:07,680
you're a Sunday morning junkie,
you've had to hear me almost

2573
02:42:07,680 --> 02:42:08,640
every Sunday morning

2574
02:42:08,820 --> 02:42:12,750
to demonstrate once again that
reckless acts have consequences.

2575
02:42:13,020 --> 02:42:17,910
And I am ready and prepared to
take whatever action is

2576
02:42:17,910 --> 02:42:18,750
necessary.

2577
02:42:18,960 --> 02:42:23,730
Take them out. Well, well, how
are we going to do that? Tell me

2578
02:42:23,730 --> 02:42:24,870
how this ends. Charlie.

2579
02:42:24,900 --> 02:42:27,390
Let me close by addressing one
other issue that the serious

2580
02:42:27,390 --> 02:42:30,480
debate currently before the
House of Representatives would

2581
02:42:30,480 --> 02:42:34,110
distract Americans or weaken our
resolve to face and doubt

2582
02:42:34,290 --> 02:42:37,380
other Democrats are questioning
the timing of this strike which

2583
02:42:37,380 --> 02:42:40,710
comes as the president faces a
looming impeachment trial I'm

2584
02:42:40,710 --> 02:42:44,190
the first person to ever get a
pizza there's no crime I like I

2585
02:42:44,190 --> 02:42:45,120
feel guilty for the

2586
02:42:45,120 --> 02:42:48,300
Congress was voting to impeach
the president. The US military

2587
02:42:48,300 --> 02:42:49,620
was bombing Baghdad.

2588
02:42:49,740 --> 02:42:52,770
This could escalate it could
lead to a cycle of violence. It

2589
02:42:52,770 --> 02:42:53,460
just got more data

2590
02:42:58,320 --> 02:43:00,960
are you going to be with me
Charlie? Whew.

2591
02:43:01,410 --> 02:43:36,510
Because after coming to you they
can turn that into a song. I

2592
02:43:36,510 --> 02:43:39,870
hear this for coming. It's
coming. It's coming. It's coming

2593
02:43:48,870 --> 02:43:49,800
It's coming It's coming.

2594
02:43:49,800 --> 02:44:49,050
It's coming It's coming.
