1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,508
Nuts.

2
00:00:01,948 --> 00:00:03,779
Adam Curry, John C. DeVore.

3
00:00:06,011 --> 00:00:06,596
This is your-

4
00:00:10,651 --> 00:00:11,779
This is no a-

5
00:00:22,524 --> 00:00:27,172
And from Refinery Row in Northern California, we're all asking Donald Trump to be the president.

6
00:00:28,059 --> 00:00:30,756
Are we there yet? I'm John C. Dvorak.

7
00:00:34,780 --> 00:00:35,396
So.

8
00:00:37,500 --> 00:00:39,012
I don't want to be the one to complain.

9
00:00:39,356 --> 00:00:42,051
because I am not the worst wounded on this show.

10
00:00:42,524 --> 00:00:45,667
But I have the Cedar Fever!

11
00:00:46,491 --> 00:00:58,799
Yeah, the what? The cedar fever. Oh, cedar. Oh, this is where every year this happens. I thought you had the HIPAA filter, the HIPAA filter. Oh, it's everywhere. And during the...

12
00:00:58,859 --> 00:01:07,412
The bat signaling caught in my throat and during this opening it caught my, and it's, ah. And the only cure for a fever is more cowbell.

13
00:01:07,915 --> 00:01:09,108
It's just so bad.

14
00:01:10,507 --> 00:01:11,475
Anyway, I'll get through it.

15
00:01:11,852 --> 00:01:21,715
man we got a little scare scare we were a feared for you I had to go into the hospital for a certain checkup and then they outfitted me with a

16
00:01:22,251 --> 00:01:26,292
It's one of these with a bunch of gear. I'm strapped.

17
00:01:26,956 --> 00:01:28,628
He strapped everybody. What are you strapping?

18
00:01:29,067 --> 00:01:32,724
What are you strapped with? You got a nine mil? I got some.

19
00:01:33,067 --> 00:01:35,668
comfortable device on and a

20
00:01:36,748 --> 00:01:53,043
Some sort of a pad, some weird sticker. It looks like a decal that collects data 24-7 for two weeks. And does this connect it to an iPhone? Please tell me it is.

21
00:01:53,579 --> 00:01:54,323
Yeah.

22
00:01:55,947 --> 00:01:59,299
to Jay's iPhone, whose iPhone you're using. No, no, this is connected to the...

23
00:01:59,391 --> 00:02:05,063
I had my phone and they said, there's an app you got to have because it.

24
00:02:05,439 --> 00:02:06,408
collection on the phone.

25
00:02:06,847 --> 00:02:14,599
You showed them your phone. They went, what is that? They said, this phone is old. And I said, yeah, it works.

26
00:02:15,168 --> 00:02:22,183
It works. What am I supposed to say? And so they gave me a phone. Oh, they gave an iPhone?

27
00:02:23,008 --> 00:02:33,192
No, not an iPhone, some Android. So your Android was not even compatible with today's modern technology. Wow.

28
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:44,168
You know, because here's here's I got no information. Did you get my text? I sent you a text. You get my text? No, you didn't get my text. It's on your phone.

29
00:02:45,151 --> 00:02:57,900
On the phone? Oh, you should send it to the text system. You are confusing. You text, you call me from your phone. You text me from your phone. Now I start using that. I'm like, hey, this is John's phone. You're in the hospital.

30
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,719
And then I was like, I might as well not exist. Meanwhile, Horace is like.

31
00:03:01,608 --> 00:03:04,816
John, everything's fine. Yeah.

32
00:03:05,415 --> 00:03:11,855
You know, Mimi keeps telling me, stop talking to Horowitz. It hurts Adam's feelings.

33
00:03:12,391 --> 00:03:34,960
It does. Well, you know, since I didn't hear back from you, like, whatever. I only talked to Horowitz because they had to skip the show because they were doing something and this horrible situation occurred with me and a specific doctor at the hospital who I shooed out and then... Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Can you talk about it? Yeah, I'll talk about it.

34
00:03:35,111 --> 00:03:44,175
So I had this doctor that was at the top. There's a doctor that's in charge of the floor. Do you mind if I go back a second? Yeah.

35
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,879
So I heard that you went to the ER. This is the information I got.

36
00:03:49,448 --> 00:03:58,800
You went to – here's how it was conveyed to me. What do you mean, uh? Well, I mean, this is going to interrupt my story, but okay. Well, I think it flows into your story.

37
00:03:59,627 --> 00:04:11,572
So John's in the ER. Okay, is he okay? Well, yeah, but he's been waiting for hours, and I got the impression that you were lying on a gurney in the hallway.

38
00:04:11,915 --> 00:04:12,883
Oh, no, they're for-

39
00:04:13,740 --> 00:04:14,515
Mm-mm.

40
00:04:15,500 --> 00:04:23,987
Might as well have been, though. Okay. Because I started pulling the bat. So the reason I'm irked about it is because this doctor comes in.

41
00:04:24,396 --> 00:04:31,252
A small Chinese woman. And says, we got to keep another day. What?

42
00:04:31,980 --> 00:04:34,963
No, I come in and I'm in and I'm out.

43
00:04:35,564 --> 00:04:36,692
Another day.

44
00:04:37,163 --> 00:04:39,411
And she looked at nothing to determine this.

45
00:04:39,915 --> 00:04:41,172
to the next day.

46
00:04:41,548 --> 00:04:44,468
I'm upstairs, stuck there.

47
00:04:44,939 --> 00:04:54,387
She comes in. I got to keep you another day. No. So I got this was from a long series of things. So I got mad at her.

48
00:04:55,851 --> 00:04:58,199
until she's not interested in the patient whatsoever.

49
00:04:58,324 --> 00:05:04,028
And then I said to her, this is very dramatic, because Brandon was there witnessing this. Here it comes.

50
00:05:05,172 --> 00:05:08,732
said, you know what? You're a lousy doctor.

51
00:05:09,555 --> 00:05:14,555
You have no concern for the patient's needs or desires.

52
00:05:14,932 --> 00:05:27,675
And then I kept reading it to the Riot Act. And so she left. Wait, she didn't say anything? Well, she kind of pushed back a little bit. Did she huff? She sort of at least huffed.

53
00:05:28,211 --> 00:05:44,379
Maybe. She had a mask on. Oh, of course. Of course. Of course. Masked. Always masked. Masked, yeah. And so one of the nurses comes in, and I'm gossiping with her because I do that with the nurses, and I said what I did. I told her what I did.

54
00:05:45,139 --> 00:05:47,803
And the nurse says, you want to file a report?

55
00:05:48,372 --> 00:05:50,267
Please.

56
00:05:50,675 --> 00:05:53,019
And I took about five beats, I said, yeah.

57
00:05:54,708 --> 00:05:57,100
So she rushes over to the console.

58
00:05:57,255 --> 00:05:59,728
and said, tell me everything you know.

59
00:06:00,072 --> 00:06:05,199
It was obvious to me that this doctor is a problem doctor.

60
00:06:05,863 --> 00:06:07,375
That was my determination.

61
00:06:08,232 --> 00:06:12,079
And so then meanwhile, then the supervisor comes in and grills me and makes me.

62
00:06:12,423 --> 00:06:22,319
tell the story. And then she's, oh, you know, we were trying to be for the patient. You know, we've, when the nurses don't like the doctor, that's a problem with.

63
00:06:24,487 --> 00:06:32,303
And then there is a – I don't know that, by the way, what you just said. I'm not sure that's true, but I'm –

64
00:06:33,543 --> 00:06:36,240
Because I don't want to demean the nurse.

65
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,216
But it's probably true. But the...

66
00:06:40,007 --> 00:06:57,699
Then I got another supervisor comes in. So what I've done was I like an a-hole that I can be, if you haven't noticed. No, not at all. I went through the system, you know, because there are ways you can complain. But doing it from the outside in.

67
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,456
Having worked in a bureaucracy for eight years.

68
00:07:00,863 --> 00:07:04,552
Doing it from the outside in is not the same as doing it from the inside out.

69
00:07:05,696 --> 00:07:07,815
So she's in trouble.

70
00:07:08,543 --> 00:07:16,232
And rightly so because was she just trying to up her – do you think she gets paid more by keeping you there longer?

71
00:07:16,735 --> 00:07:17,543
Well,

72
00:07:18,016 --> 00:07:22,759
I've concluded the following. If you're a Medicare patient,

73
00:07:24,127 --> 00:07:25,351
The money's automatic.

74
00:07:25,824 --> 00:07:33,031
Right. So the money's coming. They just they don't have to fight you for the money. So you're you're a you're a goldmine.

75
00:07:33,696 --> 00:07:56,456
So Medicare patients, let's do what can we do? And so I think that all these systems, not just the one I'm here with, all these systems across the country are gouging the government. That's why Medicare. Oh, what are we going to do? You know, it's going broke. Yeah, for good reason. They're doing everything they can to break it. I'm surprised they didn't slap you on a vent for another 11 grand.

76
00:07:57,427 --> 00:08:11,100
Yeah, let's put this old geezer on a vent. We know that's money in the bank. Money in the bank. Yeah. Wow. Hey, can we publish that data that they're collecting? Can we make like a real-time JCD graph, health graph?

77
00:08:11,507 --> 00:08:13,211
Well, we're going to try to get all the records.

78
00:08:14,228 --> 00:08:15,036
Yeah.

79
00:08:15,411 --> 00:08:22,459
Well, I was concerned. If I was concerned and if it was bad enough that it –

80
00:08:22,867 --> 00:08:23,675
involved you.

81
00:08:24,115 --> 00:08:24,923
I would have called you.

82
00:08:25,363 --> 00:08:36,028
Yeah, but I only called Horowitz because I had to skip the show. I know, but the fact that you didn't call or didn't even answer my text made me feel like it was much... Well, I missed it. Sorry about the text. No, it's okay. That it was much worse.

83
00:08:36,659 --> 00:08:41,851
Because all I got from Jay is, hey, just an FYI, John's at the ER. I go, okay.

84
00:08:43,539 --> 00:08:52,572
I mean, I'm not complaining. By the way, the reason I was in the ER, because when they go in there, you get checked in. That's where you have to go.

85
00:08:53,011 --> 00:08:57,100
I was there forever because they had –

86
00:08:57,351 --> 00:09:15,759
There was a fiasco situation, which is another whole story, which I won't tell. There was some kind of horrible accident that took place. No, no, they just it's just a logistics thing. It was ridiculous. Let me guess. A bunch of illegal aliens had priority over you. That was my conclusion. Well, you know, it's possible.

87
00:09:16,423 --> 00:09:27,888
As long as they get their money. Hey, you know what? You sound good. In fact, do you want to, should I just tell you what my text was to you? I'm sorry? Should I read you my text? Oh, hold on a second. Let me turn off the heater.

88
00:09:29,831 --> 00:09:34,000
That was going to be my next complaint. That was just so off.

89
00:09:34,631 --> 00:09:40,336
Okay, so here's my text.

90
00:09:41,511 --> 00:09:47,152
Hope you're enjoying that. A good text go to waste. Hope you're enjoying your stay.

91
00:09:47,624 --> 00:09:57,100
What a bummer. This sucks. Don't worry about clips for Thursday. I'll have us well covered. Just show up and grouse as usual. Come on, man.

92
00:09:57,384 --> 00:09:59,056
That's a great text for somebody who's in the...

93
00:09:59,624 --> 00:10:00,080
Thank you.

94
00:10:00,456 --> 00:10:02,000
You're like an amateur writer.

95
00:10:03,943 --> 00:10:05,519
Can't throw anything out.

96
00:10:08,648 --> 00:10:23,312
man i'm glad you're okay you sound great you sound fantastic yeah about an hour from now i'll be great i'll be grasping well between the two of us man i i've had this fever my i the you can literally feel the pollen sticking into your in your throat it's nuts

97
00:10:23,816 --> 00:10:25,296
Yeah, you say this every year.

98
00:10:25,768 --> 00:10:35,248
Well, I had it in January and now it's come back. So this is now, you know, that doesn't make any sense. No, but everyone has it. Everyone has scratchy eyes. Who knows?

99
00:10:35,943 --> 00:10:41,967
It's probably the chemtrails. You got the HEPA going? I got the HEPA going. I got everything going.

100
00:10:42,504 --> 00:10:46,480
What really seems to work. Oh, Manuka Gold.

101
00:10:47,111 --> 00:10:48,432
The Manuka Gold Honey?

102
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:56,080
Yeah. So I had, along with this, I had really pain in my left side and it kind of went to my back.

103
00:10:57,327 --> 00:11:01,655
It was muscle pain, muscle spasm. This is old guy talk.

104
00:11:02,447 --> 00:11:09,847
So Patina says, hey, we got some of that Manuka Gold pain relief. So I opened the thing.

105
00:11:10,255 --> 00:11:24,984
I was expecting honey goo. No, it's like a balm, a gelatin, a soft gelatin balm. And I rub that, and within two minutes, the pain is gone.

106
00:11:25,967 --> 00:11:27,639
I was blown away by that.

107
00:11:28,336 --> 00:11:38,807
That stuff is magic. I can hear Cal from Lavender Blossoms going, hey, my stuff is better. But I was blown away by the Manuka Gold Pain Relief. Not a sponsor.

108
00:11:40,015 --> 00:11:48,600
What's in it? Oh, well, CBD to start with. I don't have it here, but it has a whole list of ingredients. You know, it's all natural stuff.

109
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:56,200
and this and that and it smells great and it also doesn't it it's not like you have honey sticking to you

110
00:11:56,548 --> 00:12:03,500
The skin absorbs it and it's gone, you know, so it's not like it's going to rub off if you go lay in bed or something like that.

111
00:12:05,379 --> 00:12:06,316
So there's a tip.

112
00:12:06,884 --> 00:12:10,124
So I figured I'd do a little dive in the archives.

113
00:12:10,820 --> 00:12:15,947
start us off today because we both have and by the way i'm more than prepared with clips you're

114
00:12:16,676 --> 00:12:20,652
Excuse me. I was just trying to be nice. No, I'm just saying you made it sound like I couldn't do clips.

115
00:12:21,028 --> 00:12:27,500
I have backup people, and I want to thank them, but my wife does some stuff for me. I do my own too, by the way.

116
00:12:27,971 --> 00:12:41,163
But Steve Jones loaded me up. I know he did. I know he did. Yeah. But, you know, you don't have to say, like, by the way, like I think you're an invalid or something. Well, no, I was just saying that so I make sure to get my clips in because you've already, like.

117
00:12:41,572 --> 00:12:44,203
you know, said that you're going to cover my clips.

118
00:12:44,868 --> 00:12:46,091
grouse for the show.

119
00:12:46,724 --> 00:12:48,683
And I just wanted to back you off on that.

120
00:12:50,500 --> 00:12:56,700
Well, I was not intending to override your clips because, as you know, I see your clips when they come in and I thought.

121
00:12:56,984 --> 00:13:00,703
Wow. Steve got a lot of good clips for John.

122
00:13:01,111 --> 00:13:09,663
So, don't worry, don't worry. You're kind of the clue, yeah. Don't worry, you can play all your clips, it's fine, because that's what you said, you little spoiled brat.

123
00:13:10,264 --> 00:13:11,135
Yep.

124
00:13:11,576 --> 00:13:18,591
But I was going to start us off with something to start you into your clips by going back 15.

125
00:13:19,159 --> 00:13:25,024
12, 9, and 6 years into the No Agenda Archive.

126
00:13:25,751 --> 00:13:33,344
Because sometimes we've just been right for years.

127
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:42,176
talked about these jabronis, the SPLC, and I think it was inconclusive, the Southern Poverty Law Center.

128
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:56,700
Yeah, you really have a distrust. Yeah, I got a real distrust for these guys. What do you know about the Southern Poverty? I mean, what kind of name is that? The Southern – it's a great name, actually, I should say, as a New World Order speak. Southern Poverty.

129
00:13:56,919 --> 00:14:20,203
Law Center is poverty like for poor people, like it serves poor of the South. Let's just review who they are for a moment. The Southern Poverty Law Center is a group who are always referenced not just by media, but also by politicians as tracking the evil that exists in America.

130
00:14:20,203 --> 00:14:38,176
evil, primarily hate groups, white supremacists, racists. And I've always felt very uneasy about the Southern Poverty Law Center. They are the go-to guys. You know what? I believe it's probably going on here. Scam.

131
00:14:38,679 --> 00:14:56,899
Well, that's a word I very rarely use, but I think it's something like you get with the Rainbow Coalition or that thing Sharpton does, which is – Yeah, exactly. We're going to pester you. You want to get off our list? When's our donation coming in? You get the Southern Poverty Law Center.

132
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:12,820
Yeah. Yeah. You want to be a hate group or you want to help us? Yeah. Hate, hate or help. Hate or help. Because obviously, if you give us money, you're not a hate group. We can easily take you off the list. This is about the Southern Poverty Law Center, who we have been tracking for a decade until it became really popular.

133
00:15:12,820 --> 00:15:34,600
We were pretty much one of the few saying, wow, look at these guys. They got four or five hundred million dollars in this huge endowment and they and they they build up hate lists and they just became a juggernaut for fundraising. Well, and not only that, but they are at the center at the center of all these fact check networks.

134
00:15:34,624 --> 00:15:56,299
So if you want to know if a statement is true, then you go to the fact – I think it's the national – the international fact-check network, which always – all the networks, all the websites, all the news providers all say that they use the SPLC, the Southern Poverty Law Center.

135
00:15:56,488 --> 00:16:05,615
as one of their guiding beacons of light in who is hateful, who is a racist, who's on the list, who's not on the list.

136
00:16:05,864 --> 00:16:22,960
Two weeks ago, employees complaining of toxic workplace, only old white men running the show, everything that they accuse others of, the Southern Poverty Law Center, they have been guilty of themselves apparently for a long time.

137
00:16:26,087 --> 00:16:26,960
Well, there it is.

138
00:16:28,456 --> 00:16:30,096
Yeah, we never liked these guys.

139
00:16:31,303 --> 00:16:35,792
It was so obvious to us that this is bull crap.

140
00:16:36,296 --> 00:16:36,975
Betfork.

141
00:16:37,768 --> 00:16:38,607
All right.

142
00:16:39,015 --> 00:16:53,392
First, I got just a simple clip, which is the SPLC fraud charges because they've been charged with this. I'm going to tell you what these clips are about. They've been charged with fraud because they're sponsoring these hate groups. And then then then.

143
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,100
In fact, let me not only tell you what this is about. Let me tell you what my.

144
00:16:57,128 --> 00:16:57,648
thoughts on.

145
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,351
They not only they go after these hate groups, but they.

146
00:17:02,951 --> 00:17:09,551
to make it so they can fundraise against the hate groups. It turns out, as these clips will provide.

147
00:17:10,248 --> 00:17:19,567
They have been financing the hate groups. And in fact, that hate group situation that, that whatever the meat is, that great meetup, the, the, uh,

148
00:17:19,592 --> 00:17:40,144
They're very good people on both sides. Hoax that got Biden to run for office was financed by the Southern Poverty Law Center. They gave them the money to do that protest. And while everybody's up in arms about this and I think it is disgusting, I have to say the following. I think this is marketing genius. You know.

149
00:17:40,519 --> 00:17:43,567
While I was looking for those clips.

150
00:17:44,104 --> 00:17:46,319
In fact, I probably have it still in the raw.

151
00:17:46,728 --> 00:17:56,271
You said, I've been thinking about this for a long time. We should get in on this game is what you literally said. This is a great gambit. These guys know what they're doing.

152
00:17:57,284 --> 00:18:14,731
It's like a marketing taken to the max, although the way they did it, I guess because they did it over, you know, there was some state, there was some fraudulent stuff going over state lines. There was money laundering. They overcompensated and got themselves in a pickle. And I'm glad they did. I don't like these guys.

153
00:18:14,756 --> 00:18:27,243
Obviously phonies by what happened. This is play SPLC fraud charges. The Justice Department announced fraud charges against the Southern Poverty Law Center over its nonprofit investigations into extremist groups.

154
00:18:27,683 --> 00:18:31,564
CBS News Justice Reporter Jake Rosen has the details.

155
00:18:31,715 --> 00:18:56,632
A federal grand jury in Alabama indicted the Southern Poverty Law Center on 11 counts of wire and bank fraud-related charges on Tuesday, the Justice Department announced, accusing the group of paying members of extremist organizations as part of its efforts to investigate them without disclosing the practice to donors or banks. The SPLC has denied the allegations. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said at a news conference announcing the charges that the SPLC is, quote, a nonprofit.

156
00:18:56,632 --> 00:18:57,400
an entity

157
00:18:57,460 --> 00:19:22,375
that purports to fight white supremacy and racial hatred by reporting on extremist groups and conducting research to inform law enforcement groups with the goal of dismantling. But, quote, the SPLC was not dismantling these groups. It was instead manufacturing the extremism it purports to oppose by paying sources to stoke racial hatred. I have the indictment in front of me. If I just can go through a few things before we play your next clips. Yeah, this is I mean, it reads.

158
00:19:22,375 --> 00:19:23,675
better than any report.

159
00:19:24,211 --> 00:19:40,859
So they had fictitious entities, these front companies with names like Rare Books Warehouse, Tech Writers Group, Northwest Technologies, Fox Photography, and my favorite, the Center Investigative Agency. Yeah, literally CIA.

160
00:19:41,395 --> 00:19:45,756
Cute. It's very cute. That's a little nod. That's what you do. That's what you do.

161
00:19:46,355 --> 00:19:56,799
So the Nazis, this is the National Alliance member. He was on the payroll for 20 years. And where they went wrong with this is.

162
00:19:56,892 --> 00:20:17,087
One of these guys broke into a violent extremist group's headquarters, stole 25 boxes of documents, and one of the high-level SPLC employees coordinated the theft, knew the documents were stolen, went back, returned the originals, got in again.

163
00:20:17,087 --> 00:20:29,635
And then published a hate watch article. I mean, these people are completely they had no you're out of control. No scruples. The imperial wizard of the United States clans of America on their payroll.

164
00:20:30,044 --> 00:20:31,364
Um,

165
00:20:31,708 --> 00:20:37,188
Let's see. The former chairman of the National Alliance was on the payroll.

166
00:20:37,596 --> 00:20:45,539
Now what is interesting is that the bank that they use actually caught them in 2020 and they investigated these shell accounts.

167
00:20:46,011 --> 00:20:54,756
SPLC president and board chair wrote a letter admitting that the accounts were open for SPLC operations instead of swat stopping.

168
00:20:55,228 --> 00:20:56,599
They switched and started using

169
00:20:56,627 --> 00:21:09,211
ACH payments with like Rare Books 050 and IP Research Con 050. And then they would load the money onto gift cards.

170
00:21:09,844 --> 00:21:11,387
Oh, money laundering.

171
00:21:11,923 --> 00:21:30,940
That's money laundering. And I think Besant is a part of this because he has been doing a lot of looking at the financial networks. Forensics. Yes. So they were so. What is the what is the term looking for?

172
00:21:32,531 --> 00:21:37,115
You know, they didn't care. No, they got, this is what happened. They got sloppy.

173
00:21:37,652 --> 00:21:51,420
Yeah, when the bank doesn't do anything and nobody seems to care, especially during the four years of Biden, it just gets worse and worse. But we spotted it early on. I mean, and I think the point you made when you had that early earliest of clips.

174
00:21:51,859 --> 00:21:56,299
Where you say southern poverty law. So what does it got to do with poverty?

175
00:21:56,615 --> 00:22:03,471
They've been going after, they got their reputation by going after one hate group some years back. That's how they got their start.

176
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:19,695
And they made a business out of that. They get nothing to do with southern poverty. It's like – They're not doing anything for the poor. It's like Patriot Act. It's the obvious opposite. Yeah, there's nothing patriotic about it. No, exactly. And I'm so happy that this is happening.

177
00:22:20,104 --> 00:22:42,576
This has been 15 years of the show. We've always been grousing about these guys. And I had completely forgotten they are at the center of the fact check list. That's why there's almost no M5M coverage of this. Almost none. Because they were all using SPLC. Oh, SPLC says, hey, we have a comment from SPLC. Oh, Southern Poverty Law Center, blah, blah, blah.

178
00:22:42,695 --> 00:22:56,299
They've all been seen as a resource rather than a target of an investigation. Yeah, it's like an authoritative resource. If they say there was Nazis in Charlottesville, then there was Nazis in Charlottesville.

179
00:22:59,847 --> 00:23:16,624
So this I got three MP. This is one series of clips from NPR. This is the DOJ. This is some with some analysis is pretty good. For decades, the Southern Poverty Law Center has been known for tracking hate groups. On Tuesday, the Justice Department announced federal criminal charges against the nonprofit.

180
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:39,663
in connection with its use of paid informants to infiltrate extremist groups. NPR Justice Correspondent Ryan Lucas is covering this, and he's with us now in our studios. Good morning. Good morning. Before we get to the charges, would you just quickly remind us of what the Southern Poverty Law Center does? So the Southern Poverty Law Center is also known as the SPLC. It's a 55-year-old civil rights organization. It has a storied history. It's based in Montgomery, Alabama

181
00:23:39,816 --> 00:23:56,500
It started out as a law center doing a lot of civil rights work, trying to help end the vestiges of the Jim Crow era in the South. And its work later expanded to monitoring white supremacist groups, hate groups, including the KKK, and extremist groups more broadly. What is the administration saying they did?

182
00:23:56,528 --> 00:24:12,248
they say is illegal. Well, look, there are 11 counts in this indictment against the SPLC, including wire fraud, false statements to a bank and conspiracy to commit money laundering. And what the indictment alleges is that the SPLC defrauded its donors by telling them that the group was working to dismantle extremist groups.

183
00:24:12,367 --> 00:24:36,119
but was in fact using donated money, the DOJ says, to fund extremist groups. Court papers say that between 2014 and 2023, the SPLC paid around $3 million in total to informants affiliated with several hate groups. That includes the KKK. It says the SPLC set up bank accounts in the names of fictitious entities to pay these informants, the idea being to hide that the money was coming from the Southern Poverty Law Center.

184
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:41,367
But the indictment says that in setting up these accounts, the SPLC was making false statements to the bank.

185
00:24:41,743 --> 00:24:56,700
Can I just play one of their donation ads from the SPLC? This is from 11 years ago. I'm Steve Centuria, and I have been a supporter of the Southern Poverty Law Center for at least 20 years. It's a fantastic organization that...

186
00:24:56,983 --> 00:25:01,887
These are all mixed couples, black woman, white man. I think that anyone and everyone.

187
00:25:02,743 --> 00:25:06,432
is concerned with justice in this country should

188
00:25:07,031 --> 00:25:07,519
Do what they.

189
00:25:09,336 --> 00:25:14,208
amazing to be able to use law to actually achieve.

190
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:19,776
I've often said that Morris Dees and the Southern Poverty Law Center

191
00:25:20,152 --> 00:25:25,983
stand between civilization and barbarism. And I think it's the most unique.

192
00:25:26,615 --> 00:25:50,731
organization in America. I talk to my friends who are still teachers about what they can do in their classrooms. Some of them do know about teaching tolerance, others don't. So I intend to spread the word even more. As far as I'm concerned, this is the premier organization to deal with the rights of people who need help and need someone to go to bat for them in the legal system. This is the outfit that sued the Klan.

193
00:25:50,731 --> 00:25:56,500
put them out of business. I just couldn't imagine what these guys do on a day-to-day basis. It's quite

194
00:25:56,559 --> 00:26:04,728
My philosophy is if you don't want to be in the trenches, find the best person you can who is and support.

195
00:26:05,296 --> 00:26:10,327
It takes 10 years and all kinds of talent to prosecute someone. Your group's willing to do it.

196
00:26:12,559 --> 00:26:15,415
Make sure we seek justice. I want to stand.

197
00:26:15,855 --> 00:26:19,096
Morris Dees and the Southern Poverty Law Center.

198
00:26:21,008 --> 00:26:24,183
Oh my, that's another organization that I must support.

199
00:26:24,688 --> 00:26:26,743
that this is a good place for me to continue.

200
00:26:27,087 --> 00:26:28,375
give what little I have.

201
00:26:30,384 --> 00:26:31,031
deal.

202
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:43,096
Yes, and I would like to remind everybody the No Agenda show is a value for value podcast. No tricks, no gimmicks, no ads, no levels, no subscriptions. You can support us at noagendadonations.com.

203
00:26:45,839 --> 00:26:51,223
So back to the NPR. Now, NPR, if you haven't noticed on the first part of it.

204
00:26:51,567 --> 00:26:57,099
They are are doing the reporting from the perspective of a skeptic.

205
00:26:57,448 --> 00:27:08,336
They think it's the administration. Of course. This could be alleged, alleged, alleged. Yeah. And this is, you know, they make it sound like maybe this, they can't quite get over the top with it. I mean, I think they'd like to.

206
00:27:09,064 --> 00:27:12,592
But they're still supporting the Southern Poverty Law Center.

207
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,175
At NPR, it's pretty obvious that they're disappointed.

208
00:27:16,872 --> 00:27:18,576
that this came to light.

209
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:41,584
So how has the SPLC responded to this? Well, the group put out a video statement before the charges were announced saying that the SPLC was under federal investigation. And in that video, the nonprofit CEO, Brian Fair, defended the payments made to informants. He says these people risk their lives to infiltrate extremist groups and provide information on their activities. It was done to protect SPLC staff to gather intelligence on violent threats.

210
00:27:41,864 --> 00:27:58,099
He said that information was shared with local and federal law enforcement, including the FBI. And he said that information no doubt saved lives. He also said the SPLC will defend its work. We will not be intimidated into silence or contrition. And we will not abandon our mission.

211
00:27:58,672 --> 00:28:06,680
or the communities we serve. Now, Fair also argued in that video that the SPLC is being targeted for political reasons. Yeah.

212
00:28:07,344 --> 00:28:25,112
Yeah. No, of course, of course, the mainstream, they have to defend them because all of their allegations... Because they got suckered. Well, all of their allegations have always been... It's almost like, well, it was in the New York Times. Well, the Southern Department of Law Center said it, so it's got to be right.

213
00:28:25,584 --> 00:28:34,135
That's what it is. So, yeah. And I don't think they're embarrassed about anything. They're bummed. Oh, man. Got to find a new guy to do this for us.

214
00:28:36,048 --> 00:28:37,943
Yeah, that's probably pretty...

215
00:28:39,215 --> 00:28:40,983
Pretty accurate.

216
00:28:41,935 --> 00:28:56,728
Yeah, I'd say. Here are the rest of this apologia. Well, Ryan, we have seen the Justice Department under this administration go after President Trump's critics, often at his explicit direction. So what about Fair's argument that this indictment is political?

217
00:28:57,627 --> 00:29:06,339
Well, look, acting Attorney General Todd Blanch delivered this news at a press conference yesterday. He was asked about concerns about politics in this investigation. Here's what he said. Well.

218
00:29:08,763 --> 00:29:32,804
free from political. There is nothing political about this indictment or this investigation. Now, it is no secret, though, that conservatives have been highly critical of the Southern Poverty Law Center for years. They say it unfairly labels conservative organizations. One example they point to is an SPLC report in 2024 that described Turning Point USA. That's the group, of course, that was started by the right-wing activist Charlie Kirk, described it as a

219
00:29:32,827 --> 00:29:34,435
a case study of the hard right.

220
00:29:34,779 --> 00:29:54,339
And then after Kirk was assassinated last year, the FBI ended a long-running relationship that it had with the Southern Poverty Law Center. And at the time, FBI Director Kash Patel said that the civil rights group had turned into what he called a partisan smear machine. Now, this prosecution, this case, of course, is just getting underway. So we will see how this all plays out.

221
00:29:54,779 --> 00:29:56,612
I love the music there.

222
00:29:57,147 --> 00:29:57,599
Thank you.

223
00:29:57,852 --> 00:29:58,980
So, uh...

224
00:29:59,675 --> 00:30:00,740
Patel.

225
00:30:01,307 --> 00:30:03,268
calls it a smear machine.

226
00:30:03,867 --> 00:30:08,548
And so what happens to him over the last few days? Oh, before you go there.

227
00:30:09,435 --> 00:30:11,779
because that is absolutely connected.

228
00:30:12,859 --> 00:30:18,051
First, we have to notice that this is now happening now that Pam Bondi is gone.

229
00:30:18,395 --> 00:30:30,627
Blanche is the attorney general. Can you imagine how this would have played out if Bondi had announced this? It would have been pathetic. Yes, exactly.

230
00:30:31,355 --> 00:30:49,443
No, you had to go. It was perfect timing. I just want to play a little bit of Blanche, of what he said in this indictment video. Yeah, take it. Yeah, then we'll switch over to the smear machine. Yeah, we'll get to the smear machine. Good afternoon.

231
00:30:50,140 --> 00:30:52,228
Today, a few minutes ago,

232
00:30:52,571 --> 00:30:56,259
in the Middle District of Alabama, a grand jury returned an 11 count

233
00:30:56,991 --> 00:31:09,000
indictment charging the Southern Poverty Law Center with six counts of wire fraud, four counts of bank fraud, and one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering.

234
00:31:09,567 --> 00:31:27,432
According to the charges in the indictment, the SPLC is a nonprofit entity that purports to fight white supremacy and racial hatred by reporting on extremist groups and conducting research to inform law enforcement groups with the goal of dismantling these groups.

235
00:31:27,872 --> 00:31:37,832
As the indictment describes, the SPLC was not dismantling these groups. It was instead manufacturing the extremism it purports to oppose.

236
00:31:38,463 --> 00:31:56,799
by paying sources to stoke racial hatred. The indictment describes this conduct in detail, but one troubling example is that the SPLC was paying a member of the leadership group that planned the Unite the Right protest in Charlottesville.

237
00:31:56,859 --> 00:32:01,220
Virginia in 2017 that resulted in the death of one person.

238
00:32:01,660 --> 00:32:04,163
and injured dozens more. Okay.

239
00:32:05,051 --> 00:32:14,403
As you said at the top of the show, top of the hour, I believe this goes much deeper than people may see at face value.

240
00:32:15,067 --> 00:32:32,036
What the SPLC paid that guy to do and probably more people at Charlottesville was a deliberate attempt to undermine and get rid of Trump because, as you already said, it was the complete precursor to this super clip.

241
00:32:35,963 --> 00:32:37,251
George Charlottesville.

242
00:32:38,364 --> 00:32:39,523
In August of 2017...

243
00:32:39,932 --> 00:32:40,516
Thank you.

244
00:32:48,571 --> 00:32:49,028
Oh, Jesus.

245
00:32:52,316 --> 00:32:53,412
I see swastikas.

246
00:32:53,884 --> 00:32:55,460
And changing the same exact-

247
00:32:58,311 --> 00:33:00,496
It was heard in Germany in the early 30s.

248
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:06,223
made the decision to run for president after Charlottesville.

249
00:33:06,695 --> 00:33:29,071
Close your eyes and remember what you saw. Close your eyes. Neo-Nazis. Neo-Nazis. White supremacists. White supremacists. And the KKK coming out of the fields with torches lighted. Trump! Veins bulging, chanting the same anti-Semitic bile heard across European authorities. I spoke to the mom who lost her daughter.

250
00:33:30,951 --> 00:33:45,584
of those neo-Nazis and white supremacists come out in America with torches carrying Nazi banners singing the same sick anti-Semitic bile.

251
00:33:46,375 --> 00:33:47,023
30s.

252
00:33:47,432 --> 00:33:51,599
When her daughter was killed, they fresh went to the den.

253
00:33:52,104 --> 00:33:55,503
Trump said, what do you think? He said, they're very fine people on both sides.

254
00:33:58,556 --> 00:34:13,123
do something. That's how I decided to run because democracy is literally at stake. And then he made, he evidenced everything that we thought. Every other time the Ku Klux Klan.

255
00:34:13,563 --> 00:34:14,500
while they work.

256
00:34:15,099 --> 00:34:15,972
so they're not identical.

257
00:34:17,628 --> 00:34:19,076
His presidency.

258
00:34:19,420 --> 00:34:38,532
out of this woods with no hope. His presidency. Charlottesville is also home to a defining moment for this nation in the last few years. Remember this one? It was there on August of 2017 we saw Klansmen and white supremacists and neo-Nazis come out in the open.

259
00:34:38,907 --> 00:34:51,652
And that's when we heard the words of the President of the United States that stunned the world and shocked the conscience of this nation. He said there were, quote, some very fine people on both sides.

260
00:34:52,123 --> 00:34:55,699
find people on both sides. We can't forget.

261
00:34:56,111 --> 00:34:56,887
in Charlotte,

262
00:34:57,839 --> 00:35:03,223
Even more important, we have to remember who we are. This is America.

263
00:35:04,047 --> 00:35:11,831
Now, you know, it's easy to forget because we've been inundated with this messaging for over a decade.

264
00:35:12,271 --> 00:35:36,119
But the Trump Nazi, oh, he's got Mein Kampf next to his bed. This was all coordinated from SPLC and whoever else is affiliated with them, which is, oh, I don't know, NPR, MSNBC, CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC. It got so bad that we started making jingles. Donald loves Nazis.

265
00:35:36,303 --> 00:35:41,335
Donald loves Nazis. CNN say that he's kicking.

266
00:35:42,831 --> 00:35:44,439
Big hail with it, wow!

267
00:35:45,455 --> 00:35:46,359
So.

268
00:35:46,927 --> 00:35:50,263
This will not stand. So we have to bring in the smear machine.

269
00:35:54,223 --> 00:35:55,500
So we have cash.

270
00:35:55,592 --> 00:36:03,824
Patel at the center of a lot of this. So we have all of a sudden he's got to go because he's a drunk.

271
00:36:05,063 --> 00:36:18,351
What didn't help is the team at the Olympics where he's guzzling the beer. No, that's the whole source of everything. Yes. Because they got nothing else. I have two ways to go. I got one clip of Cash Patel suing.

272
00:36:18,407 --> 00:36:33,744
Or I said I have the origin story, which is the woman who wrote the article in The Atlantic was on a Jen Psaki show. Hold on. So The Atlantic article, from what I understand.

273
00:36:34,056 --> 00:36:44,847
I think AP retracted a story they had referencing the article. It seems like the Atlantic may have gotten a little bit over their skis on what was written here.

274
00:36:45,896 --> 00:36:55,699
Yes, but they're sticking by it. All right. So why don't we play? Let's start with the origin story. This is the Patel origin. This is Sarah Fitzpatrick.

275
00:36:56,112 --> 00:36:58,135
The writer.

276
00:36:58,512 --> 00:37:06,199
of this article and listen to, I got two, it's only two clips. She's on with Saki, who is, who's out to get.

277
00:37:06,927 --> 00:37:19,896
Well, another moment to get ratings, another moment in the sun. Joining me now is the reporter who broke that story. The Atlantic Sarah Fitzpatrick. Well, let's get into some of the details about this, because.

278
00:37:20,463 --> 00:37:43,492
of drinking seems to be what is alarming a lot of the sources in here. There are multiple anecdotes that refer to that. That's understandable. They're moving meetings. People couldn't wake him. What more have you heard about the extent of his drinking habits and how it seems to be affecting his ability to serve as FBI director? I think the key point is that this is happening in places in which it is public. There are lots and lots of

279
00:37:43,492 --> 00:37:55,599
people around who are seeing it, who are hearing about it, who are learning about it. For example, we have video of Patel chugging a beer to excess on video. We've all seen it. Everybody's seen it. Yeah.

280
00:37:55,628 --> 00:37:59,764
And I think that was in the locker room. He was on official travel at that time.

281
00:38:00,396 --> 00:38:18,771
There were ongoing threats in the United States at that time. So, you know, it is a very, very clear pattern that has occurred in multiple locations over a long period of time. And it's that pattern which has given everyone pause. These are not one-off events. This is almost as good as saying someone's mentally unstable. You know, it's like.

282
00:38:18,891 --> 00:38:31,795
I am going to analyze this guy, and because of the way he chugged his beer, I only saw him chugging one bottle of beer. He didn't even chug a whole beer. He was in the locker room. Most of it went outside of his mouth.

283
00:38:32,364 --> 00:38:54,900
Of the first time the USA is the coach of the team of the USA team in the Olympics was his buddy. They're buddies because Patel plays hockey. Yes, he's a hockey. Now, if you're a drunk, you don't play hockey, but OK. So not very well. I wouldn't. You play, but maybe not very well. So so he was invited into the locker room, which was, you know.

284
00:38:55,152 --> 00:38:56,695
I would say.

285
00:38:57,967 --> 00:39:06,456
Probably not. It wasn't a good idea, but OK, he did it. So he goes in there and they're all throwing beer and champagne over each other because they won.

286
00:39:07,023 --> 00:39:20,503
is for the first time. It's like Formula One. Have we ever seen Formula One with the champagne? Or anything. Anybody ever? Any basketball championship, any championship, they're spraying each other like, you know, it's very kind of...

287
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:22,903
oddly sexual.

288
00:39:23,344 --> 00:39:39,096
They're shaking the bottle in the wrong spot. It's funny. So I found it to be disgusting. Yeah. But they're dumping. So he has a beer and he dumps it in his mouth. It's going all over the place. He's not chugging a beer in any common way.

289
00:39:39,536 --> 00:39:47,416
And this is the video. This is the key to everything. If he had done this, they couldn't do anything. How much?

290
00:39:47,791 --> 00:39:54,599
Do you think that Psaki is a shots girl? Do you think she's one of those that gets sloshed? She looks like a jello shot.

291
00:39:54,884 --> 00:39:58,668
Yellow shot, girl. Looks the type.

292
00:39:59,427 --> 00:40:01,324
Let's go to part two of this stupid clip.

293
00:40:01,668 --> 00:40:02,123
The

294
00:40:02,659 --> 00:40:20,824
anecdote of the story was incredibly striking for a number of reasons. I mean, because I thought he was locked out of an FBI computer system. He grew incredibly paranoid, thought he was going to be fired. It turned out to be a technical issue. Talk about that level of paranoia, what that tells you, why it was.

295
00:40:20,824 --> 00:40:45,132
important to kind of lead with that anecdote in the story. The anecdote was just incredibly telling for a couple of reasons. One is that it set off such a panic within the FBI and within Washington. It set off a panic in Congress. The White House was fielding calls. I mean, there was a real lack of understanding about who was in charge at a given moment, which, as you know, as a former member of government, is an incredibly important who is in charge at a given moment.

296
00:40:45,155 --> 00:40:54,599
I also think it speaks to character and impulsivity and the ability to be in a stressful situation.

297
00:40:54,599 --> 00:41:17,675
think about what those next steps are. And I think it is also emblematic of other occasions that we have seen that are very public in which information has been shared by the FBI director, which was not yet, that went beyond what the investigation was ready to make public at that time. Like what? And that later had to be walked back. And in multiple cases that we have seen, all very publicly reported, the fact that...

298
00:41:17,699 --> 00:41:28,492
this has impacted the investigation. This has impacted their ability to pursue people that were potentially mass shooters or other things of that nature.

299
00:41:28,835 --> 00:41:53,164
What? Because he's drinking a beer, he can't pursue people who are mass shooters. Is that his job? That's his job. Yes, that's all he does. This is a mistake. Atlantic made a mistake here. Well, they're going to pay for it if it all goes well. Now, two more clips. One of them is, let's see, Patel defends. I got an ABC clip and then I have a.

300
00:41:53,827 --> 00:41:54,699
Another one.

301
00:41:55,431 --> 00:41:58,128
Akash Patel sues NBC. Let's play the ABC clip.

302
00:41:58,536 --> 00:42:23,452
Tonight, FBI Director Kash Patel in front of the cameras lashing out at allegations of excessive drinking and concerns about his job performance. I've never been intoxicated on the job, and that is why we filed a $250 million defamation lawsuit. And any one of you that wants to participate, bring it on. I'll see you in court. Patel is suing The Atlantic for $250 million, alleging defamation after it published a story claiming members...

303
00:42:23,452 --> 00:42:47,440
of his security detail had difficulty waking Patel because he was seemingly intoxicated. The article also claimed a request for breaching equipment normally used by SWAT and hostage rescue teams to quickly gain entry into buildings was made last year because Patel had been unreachable behind locked doors. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanch tonight said he had not read the article but disputed the reporting.

304
00:42:48,552 --> 00:42:54,699
The Atlantic is standing by its story tonight, David, and calling Kash Patel's defamation lawsuit meritless.

305
00:42:55,079 --> 00:43:19,824
Isn't this the same playbook they did on Hegseth? He's a drunk. Yeah. He's a drunk. The drunk thing is very, which is ironic since Trump is the president. No drinking. No drinking. No drinking. So that report seemed like a kind of a cookie cutter. Well, listen to NBC do the same report. Tonight, a battle over reputation and reporting. You want to attack my character? Come at me. Bring it on.

306
00:43:19,911 --> 00:43:44,079
I'll see you in court. Today, FBI Director Kash Patel filed a defamation suit seeking a staggering $250 million against the Atlantic Monthly Group. After its April 17th story, citing anonymous sources, reported that bouts of excessive drinking and erratic behavior have put his job on the line. NBC News has not independently verified that reporting.

307
00:43:44,423 --> 00:43:54,300
The story claims on multiple occasions the director's security detail had difficulty waking Patel. We got a request was made late last year for.

308
00:43:54,679 --> 00:44:05,760
Breaching equipment.

309
00:44:06,679 --> 00:44:31,231
Patel had faced criticism for this moment when he partied with U.S. men's hockey, winning Olympic gold. He responded that he was extremely humble to celebrate with the boys. The director's lawsuit alleges the Atlantic story contains false and obviously fabricated allegations and ignored the FBI's response before it was published. While the Atlantic says we stand by our report.

310
00:44:31,255 --> 00:44:35,967
Now, is it a slander lawsuit? Do we know?

311
00:44:36,728 --> 00:44:38,112
Would print.

312
00:44:38,744 --> 00:44:54,199
One, there's two ways of, there's two kinds of defamation. There's one slander and one is libel. One is in print and one is verbal. Right. So it's the one that's in print. Yes. And I hate to say this, but I do get.

313
00:44:54,387 --> 00:44:55,996
mixed up a lot.

314
00:44:56,947 --> 00:44:58,940
So I think it's liable if it's in print.

315
00:44:59,827 --> 00:45:12,668
You need a lozenge. Let's look it up. Look it up. You got the robot. Well, hold on a second. What is the question I'm asking here? Hold on a second. What's the difference between slander and libel? Book of Knowledge. What is the difference between slander and libel?

316
00:45:14,804 --> 00:45:15,291
up.

317
00:45:17,619 --> 00:45:29,275
According to the book of knowledge, slander is spoken defamation that damages reputation through false statements, while libel is written or published defamation in permanent form.

318
00:45:30,291 --> 00:45:31,291
Thus,

319
00:45:31,635 --> 00:45:33,211
It has been written.

320
00:45:34,164 --> 00:45:36,347
Okay, so easy way to remember.

321
00:45:36,851 --> 00:45:38,396
Slander is speech.

322
00:45:38,963 --> 00:45:42,748
Ah, S for speech. S for speech. That's good. Book of Knowledge comes through.

323
00:45:43,284 --> 00:45:43,835
Now.

324
00:45:44,403 --> 00:45:47,291
What I see here is this is not just about...

325
00:45:47,764 --> 00:45:54,199
Dismantling the decades-old system of the SPLC and the media and...

326
00:45:55,315 --> 00:46:01,788
I would just have I don't even know it's the Democrats. I think it's uniparty. Whoever they need to take down, they'll take down.

327
00:46:02,452 --> 00:46:13,275
As Kash Patel shows up, this is my favorite show. I always record Sunday morning, Sunday mornings with the money, honey, Maria Bartiromo. Kash Patel pops up with this little message.

328
00:46:13,684 --> 00:46:36,476
I've been with the president nearly since day one on this. As I told you earlier, I was the one that led the effort with folks like Trey Gowdy, Johnny Ratcliffe, and Devin Nunes to expose the corruption that tried to thwart President Trump's first presidential election run. And we saw the FISA abuses there. And I lived through it, and the media came at me then, too. That just shows you that when you're over the target, you keep pummeling the target because the media

329
00:46:36,563 --> 00:46:54,800
We are not going to take this and have not taken this laying down. We did already indict former Director Comey, and that's going through the judicial process. But we also at this FBI, even though we uncovered what we uncovered back in the House Intel days, I had to come in here and find rooms that they hid from the world. I had to come in here and find access on our computer system.

330
00:46:54,860 --> 00:47:18,804
in restricted and prohibited case files that they purposely put in places for no one to see and find. We have found all this information. We are working with our Department of Justice partners. And I am never going to let this go because they not only personally attacked the presidency of the United States and President Trump, but they tried to thwart our elections and rig the entire system. And that is not something that is going to stop. That is not something I'm going to allow.

331
00:47:18,956 --> 00:47:32,467
on my wife and you have to remember they built this disease temple over twenty and thirty years east we've got all the inference i can out on your show that we've got all the information we need we're working with our prosecutors the department of justice and attorney general todd blanch

332
00:47:32,907 --> 00:47:39,059
We are going to be making arrests and it's coming. And I promise you, it's coming soon. Did you say?

333
00:47:39,851 --> 00:47:47,347
Did he say diseased temple or diseased temple? No, I like diseased temple. It's a show title. With a D or no D?

334
00:47:48,811 --> 00:47:55,000
What do you mean? Disease with a D at the end? I thought he said diseased. No, no, I don't think it is.

335
00:47:55,155 --> 00:48:03,708
I like the – I don't like it with the – The pure disease. Just disease temple. I've written it down, disease temple. And so, of course.

336
00:48:04,340 --> 00:48:09,532
Oh, there he is.

337
00:48:10,356 --> 00:48:12,476
off topic, but it has to do with you.

338
00:48:12,884 --> 00:48:35,195
James Comey subpoenaed according to MS Now reporting as part of a grand conspiracy. You notice how they have to say MS Now. MS Now, they have to think about it still. Yeah, of course they do. You would too. Station call letter change. James Comey. It's like when you remarry, you don't ever want to call your wife by her old wife's name.

339
00:48:36,467 --> 00:48:48,059
subpoenaed according to MS Now reporting as part of a grand conspiracy that's being investigated against Donald Trump. There is talk that you might be also involved in this.

340
00:48:48,692 --> 00:48:51,356
What have you heard? What are you learning?

341
00:48:51,764 --> 00:48:54,800
What do you make of this? What are you learning?

342
00:48:54,827 --> 00:49:11,315
I think you mean against Jim Comey because Jim Comey, myself and others, you know, have received subpoenas from the Department of Justice about some grand conspiracy or the work that we did while we were in government. And we're going back basically 10 years or so.

343
00:49:11,659 --> 00:49:25,204
That sounds so much like we were just following orders while we were in government. Just following orders, sir. Or the work that we did while we were in government and we're going back basically 10 years or so.

344
00:49:25,547 --> 00:49:45,588
So David can speak to the retribution campaign that Donald Trump has been on. And with this effort to try to harass and to try to ruin people professionally, personally, financially and so on. And it's very, very sad that our government, our Department of Justice is engaged in these types of activities.

345
00:49:45,708 --> 00:49:55,500
Again, I'm going to do what I need to do in order to ensure that I am following the law and continuing to say that I feel as though everything I did while I was director of

346
00:49:55,500 --> 00:50:07,056
of the CIA was certainly consistent with my authorities and lawful and appropriate. I would have been derelict. My colleagues at that time would have been derelict if we didn't expose Russian interference in the 2016 election.

347
00:50:08,487 --> 00:50:11,760
Yeah, you know, I think this is the time to play the old Brennan clip.

348
00:50:13,032 --> 00:50:17,807
Oh, yes. It puts him right in this whole Brennan clip.

349
00:50:18,152 --> 00:50:26,447
This applies to him now. Yes, here it is. People are innocent until alleged to be involved in some type of criminal activity.

350
00:50:27,943 --> 00:50:33,807
That's him. Until they're alleged to be in some kind of criminal activity. Thank you. Good callback. I forgot about that.

351
00:50:34,503 --> 00:50:51,215
And he's very dismayed. Now he's popping up all over the place. Another MS now. He's now he's very demure. He's not happy. It just shows that over the past 10 years, there's been, you know, failure after failure to try to identify something that, you know, wrongdoing in this case.

352
00:50:51,623 --> 00:50:54,699
Part of this is to harass.

353
00:50:55,047 --> 00:51:05,840
tried to hurt individuals reputationally, professionally, financially. Same words. Trying to keep the story alive as a way to deflect from other issues and challenges that they face. Oh.

354
00:51:06,184 --> 00:51:30,320
So, again, I'm not surprised by this. I'm very dismayed and disappointed by it. I'm also very troubled that we have people in government who seem to be so mean spirited that they try to actually to hurt individuals, hurt people, their families and others. That's what government does. That's the default. What about Roger Stone? What's he talking about? And they claim to be part of the Republican Party. This is not Republican.

355
00:51:30,472 --> 00:51:31,344
Parties that I work with.

356
00:51:31,784 --> 00:51:54,099
or whatever they worked with. You know, there are people of integrity who never would have thought the Department of Justice would have fallen as far as it has. And so, again, every day when I wake up, you know, there's something new that I just find just being so surreal and separated from the government and the reality that I worked in for 33 plus years.

357
00:51:54,192 --> 00:52:13,911
Again, I take every day as it comes. Okay, so I've got two more shorties here. 33 to magic number. I know. It's in there. Trump is only doing this just to distract from his horrible, dumb mistakes. It's clear that there's this toxic mix of traits that Donald Trump has.

358
00:52:14,063 --> 00:52:38,552
which is he's a pathological liar. He is incompetent on so many fronts. And he's also deeply corrupt, which I think is now being manifest, manifesting itself in terms of the Gulf War. That's why you have these wholly incoherent, wholly inconsistent flailing about because, first of all, again, there was no real rationale for this war. Secondly, he's trying to figure out what his next move is, and he doesn't understand exactly how he's going to get himself out of this mess.

359
00:52:38,927 --> 00:52:43,416
So he's coming after me because he doesn't know how to get out of this mess. Okay.

360
00:52:43,920 --> 00:52:47,320
And now, what's he worried about?

361
00:52:48,688 --> 00:52:54,500
Oh, Brennan? Yeah, what's he worried about if this is all true? Brennan's going to the guillotine.

362
00:52:54,784 --> 00:53:08,231
Bring that back. That was good. We can only hope. One more clip. Trump said something this morning that was very telling when they asked him about the Brits and Keir Starmer, Prime Minister Starmer, why he has not joined this effort.

363
00:53:08,672 --> 00:53:24,840
Ken Starmer told Trump, I need to speak with my advisors. Hold on a second. He has. Oh, maybe he's talking about the Iran war. The Starmer. Yeah. Starmer has not joined this effort. OK. Why he has not joined this effort. Ken Starmer told Trump, I need to speak with my advisors. And Trump said, why do you have to speak with your advisors?

364
00:53:25,056 --> 00:53:35,719
It just demonstrates that these are all things that he does on his own, and he's not taking the advice and input of others, even though they all seem to be the sycophants here.

365
00:53:35,871 --> 00:53:54,500
But, you know, Keir Starmer and others are listening to their intelligence professionals, listening to their military experts, listening to their foreign policy advisors and others to see the right way forward. But Donald Trump acts on his gut, on his feelings, which is not the way to prosecute any war, especially one that is so needless as this.

366
00:53:54,880 --> 00:54:16,456
this is kind of an unfortunate example that former CIA director Brennan brings up because this is exactly the topic of what is happening in the UK. And I finally put together a couple of clips because it's so entertaining. Starmer listening to his advisors. Let's recap, shall we? Let's just recap.

367
00:54:16,992 --> 00:54:29,831
Peter Mandelson has been on the rack or had been on the rack twice, twice sacked from the cabinet, the Labour cabinet, Blair's cabinet. First time Blair, second time, I believe, Gordon Brown.

368
00:54:30,016 --> 00:54:52,699
First time for taking a big mortgage loan from interest-free, I do believe, from Geoffrey Robertson, the Labour Party's in-house multimillionaire. He bought a house in Notting Hill, didn't tell anyone and then had to declare it. He had to be sacked. It was the scandal hilariously called Notting Hill Gate.

369
00:54:52,791 --> 00:55:14,815
gate. He then went on to be restored to the cabinet and then had to be fired for trying to get the very rich billionaire Indian Hinduja brothers tycoons there in India British passports under the counter. He had to be sacked for that. And then we had of course the

370
00:55:15,320 --> 00:55:17,791
Epstein affair. So all through that.

371
00:55:18,231 --> 00:55:19,264
Uh,

372
00:55:19,831 --> 00:55:42,784
Starmer admits in the House when asked by Badenoch, did you know that Peter Mandelson had continued a friendship with the convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein while he was in jail and had stayed at his apartment in Manhattan while he was in jail for child sex offences? Did you know that, Prime Minister? Yes, I did. So he knew that.

373
00:55:42,936 --> 00:55:52,000
He said that in the House of Commons. He knew about this guy's background, but from what we're hearing, he didn't feel it was worth asking.

374
00:55:52,000 --> 00:56:12,708
But he always checks with his advisors, doesn't he? Yeah. Brennan, so this is Esther Krakow. Brennan's full of it.

375
00:56:13,052 --> 00:56:14,596
What?

376
00:56:15,068 --> 00:56:26,436
This is a great story. It just gets so deep. And and it's the connections between what they were clearly this Mandelson. I think it might be in this clip or the next one.

377
00:56:27,003 --> 00:56:31,331
They wanted Mandelson close to Trump as soon as possible because they knew.

378
00:56:31,771 --> 00:56:48,835
that Mandelson, well, they call him the Prince of Darkness. And so they wanted their guy close to Trump as the ambassador in the United States to the UK. And Esther Krakow, who's an international affairs commentator, has some background on it.

379
00:56:50,012 --> 00:56:52,000
Prime Minister's Question Time.

380
00:56:52,347 --> 00:57:15,492
was forced to admit that he actually did know about Peter Mandelson's association with Jeffrey Epstein in a security briefing. So he was asked point blank in the dispatch box whether he actually knew during the vetting process, which Keir Starmer actually even celebrated Peter Mandelson coming on board before the vetting was complete. So he'd already made his mind up that this man was going to be the U.S. ambassador.

381
00:57:15,516 --> 00:57:32,675
In sort of an embarrassing U-turn, he now had to reveal that he did know, but that Peter Mandelson misled him and his team on the extent of the relationship, which, again, is quite baffling because this was easily Google-able information. I mean, if a conservative researcher who's about 20 years old can find this on the Internet.

382
00:57:33,275 --> 00:57:52,199
then the Labour vetting team should have been able to. But it's more about why he even brought him back in the first place. Peter Mandelson had to resign twice in disgrace from government back in 1998 and 2001, one of which was because he basically peddled his influence to get an Indian billionaire, a British pastor.

383
00:57:52,199 --> 00:58:14,923
So this is not someone who had a clean track record to begin with. But it's clear that Labour is so bereft of talent that they had to bring someone whose nickname is, I kid you not, the Prince of Darkness into the Labour sort of high office to try and get anything done. Unfortunately, even during Peter Mandelson's brief stint as US ambassador, no one knew his name because basically Nigel Farage was our de facto ambassador.

384
00:58:14,947 --> 00:58:38,443
And he actually peddled more influence for the Americans than Peter Mandelson did. But his association with Jeffrey Epstein has proven to be extremely ugly. He called Jeffrey Epstein being released from prison Liberation Day. The email exchanges between the two suggest that, you know, Peter Mandelson was happy to use his influence to try and influence bankers bonuses during the financial crisis, the sale of a bank.

385
00:58:38,467 --> 00:58:51,900
and details about a European bailout, bank bailout. This is at a time where, you know, the government were really scrambling to try and reassure people. People were losing their jobs left, right and center, their homes. And you had basically what was effectively the deputy prime minister at the time.

386
00:58:52,119 --> 00:58:53,760
using his influence to get a

387
00:58:54,360 --> 00:59:19,007
pedophile financier and his friends whatever scraps they could. So this is what happens when you resurrect the carcasses of a man like Peter Mandelson's political career. And unfortunately, Kiyosama is really going to try hard to ride this wave, but I don't think he'll be successful. And then finally, this Ollie Robbins character who was a former senior civil servant, I think he quit or he was sacked.

388
00:59:19,032 --> 00:59:38,751
Not sure. Testifying before the parliamentary committee, which is the nail in the coffin for Starmer and for what I think was a clear gambit to get close to Trump, maybe use some Epstein sap. Who knows? And I think the president, that's when he said, you know, we should probably release all this Epstein stuff. Let's get it all out there.

389
00:59:39,320 --> 00:59:51,900
Can I ask you this? So let's move on. I think throughout January, honestly, my office, the Foreign Secretary's office, were under constant pressure.

390
00:59:52,568 --> 01:00:05,760
there was an atmosphere of constant chasing. Daily phone calls? I couldn't say for certain daily, but certainly very frequent.

391
01:00:06,135 --> 01:00:13,376
from private office to private office. Has this been delivered yet? Never any interest as far as I recall.

392
01:00:13,911 --> 01:00:14,431
weather.

393
01:00:14,967 --> 01:00:34,335
but only an interest in when. When you say private office to private office, are you saying private office of number 10? Yes, I am. I'm afraid I walked into a situation in which there was already a very, very strong expectation, and you will have seen the papers released already under the humble address.

394
01:00:35,159 --> 01:00:51,300
that coming from Number 10 that he needed to be in post and in America as quickly as humanly possible. The very first formal communication of this to my predecessor from Number 10 private office being that they wanted all this done at pace and Mandelson in post before inauguration.

395
01:00:51,679 --> 01:01:01,159
So I'm afraid what that translated into for my team in the Foreign Office and certainly the handover briefing I was getting as I arrived at post.

396
01:01:01,503 --> 01:01:10,920
was what I felt was a generally dismissive attitude to his vetting clearance. The focus was on getting Mandelson out to Washington quickly.

397
01:01:11,807 --> 01:01:35,655
Despite this atmosphere, an atmosphere of pressure, the department completed developed vetting to the normal high standard. Because the vetting process is not there to determine fitness for office or reputational risk. It's there to protect national security. Yeah. So there you go. So wait, so your analysis has it that Mandelson was.

398
01:01:36,159 --> 01:01:41,896
over here on purpose to do something to Trump. Yeah, he had all the Trump guys figured.

399
01:01:42,271 --> 01:01:49,735
two and two or his team did. And then they rolled out all the Epstein stuff and got that guy out of here. Mandelson was the first one to go, if you recall.

400
01:01:50,692 --> 01:01:52,523
He was the first one.

401
01:01:53,507 --> 01:02:16,396
And I'm sure that they staggered the files that way. Yeah. Yeah, let's make sure this gets out first. Yeah, let's put this here on page one. Let's make sure that you can copy-paste and the redactions are taken out. Yeah, because there's a huge humiliation for the Starmer regime. The Starmer's on the ropes. He should be. Yeah.

402
01:02:17,188 --> 01:02:38,764
We still have to try something here at home. We already had the New York Times article with the Situation Room, Sources Say, Bibi Netanyahu sat at the head of the table. He had the buttons there. He was pushing everything. Bibi was running the meeting. Trump was serving him drinks, and Bibi was doing all this, and now we have a new one.

403
01:02:38,947 --> 01:02:44,012
This is one of those former CIA analysts, one of my favorites.

404
01:02:44,452 --> 01:02:49,800
They all show up on Sean Ryan. Larry Johnson. Here we go. Larry Johnson. OK.

405
01:02:49,827 --> 01:02:52,523
Let's stop here so we can preface this.

406
01:02:52,867 --> 01:02:54,603
Larry Johnson

407
01:02:55,300 --> 01:02:57,675
Is some soy still working for somebody?

408
01:02:58,179 --> 01:03:18,860
Larry Johnson is the worst of the worst. Yes. He's the worst of the worst. Everything is an anti-Trump. It's all, you know, the walls are closing in. He's still back on that theme from like 2017. The walls are closing in type of guy. He is full of it. Larry Johnson is the absolute worst.

409
01:03:18,947 --> 01:03:41,639
And this is part of the 25th Amendment ploy, I'm quite convinced. And then there was a report out that they had an emergency meeting Saturday night. And apparently, well, one report coming out of that meeting at the White House is that Trump wanted to use the nuclear, so-called use the nuclear codes. And General Dan Kaine stood up and said no. No.

410
01:03:41,639 --> 01:03:50,000
he invoked his privilege as the head of the military, so to speak. No. It was apparently quite a blow up. There are pictures of him.

411
01:03:50,027 --> 01:03:59,891
Kane coming out of that meeting with his head down to the ground. You know, there's some very, very bizarre things going on in D.C. Yeah.

412
01:04:00,684 --> 01:04:11,956
sure in every movie I've seen, and we could check with the book of knowledge, when the president says it's time for the new codes, the generals don't get to overrule that.

413
01:04:12,556 --> 01:04:13,172
No.

414
01:04:14,539 --> 01:04:15,219
No they don't.

415
01:04:15,755 --> 01:04:27,891
So they're desperate here. So this is a bull crap story. Yes. You think? Which is what you expect. Yeah. And these guys are really hard up for.

416
01:04:28,364 --> 01:04:30,003
I don't understand why they can't focus better.

417
01:04:30,987 --> 01:04:35,731
Well, you know, the system is being dismantled. This is Scattergun.

418
01:04:36,204 --> 01:04:38,068
Yeah, there it is. Blunderbuss.

419
01:04:40,043 --> 01:04:49,331
Is that a term? Blunderbuss? Yeah, blunderbuss is a type of weapon with a big... Yeah, with nails. You put nails in it, don't you? Blunderbuss. Yeah, you put nails in it. Blunderbuss.

420
01:04:50,284 --> 01:04:58,771
Yeah. All right. I got some other stuff, but I'm open to your suggestions. Well, we do. I got these two clips from the Kevin.

421
01:04:59,211 --> 01:05:04,916
Kevin Warsh. Oh, yeah. I watched. Confirmation here. This is kind of an aside. And then we can talk about.

422
01:05:05,356 --> 01:05:06,003
Um.

423
01:05:07,083 --> 01:05:27,956
number of ways to go after that. But let's get this out of the way. All right. The president's choice to lead the Federal Reserve says he would like the agency to do a little less. Kevin Warsh testified before a Senate committee Tuesday. He said the Fed could do a better job of curbing inflation and unemployment if it was more narrowly focused. One big question is who decides what the Fed does?

424
01:05:28,043 --> 01:05:48,599
Warsh was nominated by a president who wants greater control over an independent agency. NPR's Scott Horsley remains independent and joins us now. Agency? Agency? Says who? Yeah, what kind of agency are we talking about? It's not a government agency. The Federal Reserve is not a government agency. Scott, good morning. Good morning. Good morning. What was the hearing like?

425
01:05:48,599 --> 01:06:12,476
It was quite polarized. Committee Republicans mostly backed the nominee. Democrats were uniformly opposed. One question that came up again and again was whether Warsh would take marching orders from the president, who's been demanding lower interest rates. Here's GOP Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana. Are you going to be the president's human sock puppet? Senator, absolutely not. Are you going to be anybody's human sock puppet?

426
01:06:13,331 --> 01:06:38,043
No, I'm honored the president nominated me for the position, and I'll be an independent actor if confirmed as chairman of the Federal Reserve. Moore says it's not unusual that Trump wants lower interest rates. He says most presidents do. And Moore says just because Trump is more outspoken than most other presidents, that's not a threat to the Fed's independence. Hold on a second. What outfit is reporting this? The NPR. All right. So they forgot.

427
01:06:38,835 --> 01:06:48,599
To give you the bit before that, that Senator... Which you have, luckily. Of course I do. Here is Pocahontas. I try to end the independence of the Fed.

428
01:06:49,012 --> 01:06:50,012
Because Trump's.

429
01:06:50,931 --> 01:06:59,579
Thank you.

430
01:06:59,923 --> 01:07:06,811
in the short term, and this is his last chance to do that before the November elections.

431
01:07:07,411 --> 01:07:28,891
Having a sock puppet in charge of the Fed would also give the president access to the Fed's powerful authorities to enrich himself, his family, and his Wall Street buddies. It could mean granting special accounts to his family's crypto company or bailouts to his friends on Wall Street if they get into trouble.

432
01:07:29,972 --> 01:07:31,132
a

433
01:07:31,668 --> 01:07:48,500
under Donald Trump's control, creates more opportunities for Trump's corruption. It's interesting they didn't put that bit in. She was the impetus for the question. It might be in one of the other clips, but yeah, she's the one who brought up sock puppets.

434
01:07:49,456 --> 01:07:51,384
They also didn't play it right.

435
01:07:52,175 --> 01:07:53,815
They didn't play, in fact.

436
01:07:54,639 --> 01:08:09,304
Hold on. It's short, but this is the full Kennedy quote, which was better. If I was working at NPR, I would have. OK, I would have chosen this one. The editing is no good. Professor, what's the sock puppet?

437
01:08:11,472 --> 01:08:24,184
I heard the reference from Senator Warren. Yeah, what is it? I'm not sure I know. I think it's a thing you stick your hand in. Yeah, kind of like this. Yes. What's a human sock puppet? Isn't a human a sock puppet?

438
01:08:24,720 --> 01:08:42,935
somebody will do what somebody else tells them to do. I think that's what the senator was trying to suggest. Are you going to be the president's human sock puppet? So what he does, you know, he shows his hand up the puppets. But, you know, that's the clip in PR week.

439
01:08:45,488 --> 01:08:48,600
Yeah, well, it is weak.

440
01:08:48,884 --> 01:09:12,796
I'm surprised that Warren, well, let's play clip two. Although we should mention Trump did more than speak. He's done a lot of things to try to get more control over the Fed. So are Democrats persuaded that this nominee would be independent? Well, that was exactly the point that Massachusetts Democrat Elizabeth Warren made. She says Trump hasn't just expressed an opinion. He's gone to great lengths to bend the central bank to his will. The president has repeatedly.

441
01:09:13,140 --> 01:09:31,319
illegally attempted to take over the Fed. Illegally? His bogus attacks on Governor Lisa Cook and Chair Powell were designed to threaten all the members of the Fed. Now, so far, those efforts by the president have been blocked in the courts, but Trump's pressure campaign has raised alarm.

442
01:09:31,319 --> 01:09:48,399
The Fed is supposed to be insulated from that kind of pressure so that it can do what's best in the long run for the economy, not just what's good until the next election. Aside from his independence, this is a chance to find out what it is that Warsh would want to do with this agency. How, if at all, does he want to change it?

443
01:09:48,555 --> 01:10:12,243
Yeah, he thinks there is room for lower interest rates, but also a lower profile for the Fed. He suggests that policyholders at the central bank might hold fewer news conferences and give fewer speeches. And he wants to improve the data that they use to measure things like inflation. And he wants the Fed to scale back its investment in government debt. Oh, man, I hope there's more in this third clip because I watched a different.

444
01:10:12,427 --> 01:10:14,547
hearing than NPR did, I guess.

445
01:10:15,851 --> 01:10:19,091
It's the same here. It's just NPR has their perspective.

446
01:10:20,459 --> 01:10:22,355
By the way, I should mention,

447
01:10:24,235 --> 01:10:26,963
that having less press conferences would be a good thing.

448
01:10:27,883 --> 01:10:44,819
The problem they have now is that when the chairman goes and does his press conference, the stock market is all paying attention for code words. And then it makes the market unstable. Less press conferences would dramatically lower Andrew Horowitz's blood pressure.

449
01:10:45,227 --> 01:10:48,399
It would, for sure. He's always like...

450
01:10:48,524 --> 01:10:57,203
And the market has this price in. Or we're expecting this. And nothing will happen. And they think it's going to say this. And what does this phrase mean exactly?

451
01:10:58,572 --> 01:11:00,020
I'm down with that.

452
01:11:01,195 --> 01:11:03,572
Play this last clip and then you can follow up with it.

453
01:11:04,332 --> 01:11:28,159
What is Warsh saying about his own personal investments? Not a whole lot. He is worth more than $100 million. That doesn't count his wife, who's heir to the Estee Lauder fortune. But Warsh's financial disclosure form is pretty opaque about how and where that money is invested. Senator Warren grilled Warsh about whether he has financial ties to the Trump family or to China or even to Jeffrey Epstein. Senator, I have worked –

454
01:11:28,159 --> 01:11:44,051
Carelessly with the ethics officials at the Office of Government Ethics. Yes, and you have not revealed $100 million in assets. I'm doing an ethics agreement with them and have agreed, Senator, to sell all of my financial assets. That's not my question. We're stuck with that question with a promise to sell those undisclosed assets before he starts working.

455
01:11:44,844 --> 01:11:48,300
How soon would he start work? Well, possibly as early as next month.

456
01:11:48,300 --> 01:12:10,319
But there's a big hurdle to clear first. Republican Tom Tillis insists he will not allow a vote on this nomination until the Justice Department drops that investigation of the Federal Reserve, which critics, including Tillis, say is just another way for the administration to put pressure on the Fed. Boy, OK. Well, Elizabeth Warren got her got her her her ISOs. That's what it's all about in these hearings.

457
01:12:10,344 --> 01:12:20,560
Yeah, she's good. So there were two questions which I thought were reasonable. Let me see. This first one.

458
01:12:21,000 --> 01:12:22,351
Let me see.

459
01:12:22,728 --> 01:12:24,591
was asking this.

460
01:12:25,351 --> 01:12:44,912
The question is about policy. Prices went up to the tune of 25 to 35 percent for virtually all deciles of the American people. That's an indication that the Fed missed its mark. And we are still dealing with the legacy of the policy errors in 2021 and 2022.

461
01:12:45,511 --> 01:12:48,300
Once you let inflation take hold in the.

462
01:12:48,391 --> 01:12:52,144
It's more expensive and harder to bring it down.

463
01:12:52,264 --> 01:13:14,287
And so the fatal policy error going back four or five years is still a legacy that we're dealing with. We need, in my judgment, fundamental policy reforms to fix it. And while it's true that inflation is less problematic, meaning the rate of change in prices is less severe than it was some years ago, hardworking Americans are no doubt feeling it.

464
01:13:14,728 --> 01:13:38,095
I think that means a regime change in the conduct of policy. I think that means a different new inflation framework. There's your headline, regime change. Yes, regime change. That would be a very good idea. And what exactly is inflation? Finally, someone who just says what it is. Does federal government spending have anything to do with inflation, Mr. Warsh?

465
01:13:38,119 --> 01:13:48,000
Senator, as we talked about in your office, my view of inflation is a bit different from some. I don't think inflation comes about when the economy grows too much.

466
01:13:48,000 --> 01:14:03,619
or hardworking Americans get an increase in their wages. I think inflation comes about when the government prints too much, by which I mean the central bank, and broadly speaking, the government spends too much. And so we're spending too much money, and now we've been cleaning up their mess ever since.

467
01:14:04,315 --> 01:14:04,804
Yes.

468
01:14:05,148 --> 01:14:09,667
Yes, that would be correct. Milton Friedman had that.

469
01:14:10,460 --> 01:14:12,260
I wish I had, there is a clip.

470
01:14:12,988 --> 01:14:15,043
Milton Friedman had a little

471
01:14:15,547 --> 01:14:16,963
clip about

472
01:14:17,404 --> 01:14:33,028
I guess it was during the Civil War, there was somebody, one state or somebody, just printing, printing, printing money, and they had endless inflation. And once they stopped printing money, it stopped. Inflation stopped dead. Amazing how that works.

473
01:14:33,756 --> 01:14:47,199
Last clip. The reason why I prefer monetary policy to use interest rates as the dominant force is interest rates affect a far broader cross-section of the economy. Interest rates get in the cracks. If we were to cut rates.

474
01:14:47,292 --> 01:14:54,404
then broader number of people will benefit from it versus quantitative easing, which tends to move through financial assets first.

475
01:14:54,876 --> 01:15:05,380
Half of our fellow Americans don't own any financial assets, so they're wondering what's in it for them. Yes, lower interest rates. Exactly. I'm all for that.

476
01:15:06,076 --> 01:15:10,756
Lower mortgage, lower car payments. It's a good idea.

477
01:15:11,547 --> 01:15:19,747
They're going to fight him, I guess. Elizabeth Warren, she represents the entire banking industry.

478
01:15:21,148 --> 01:15:21,956
She's no good.

479
01:15:23,100 --> 01:15:28,484
uh so the gay general patton was also testifying did you get any of that

480
01:15:29,212 --> 01:15:32,804
No, I got none of that. Oh, okay. So Scott Besant.

481
01:15:33,212 --> 01:15:34,404
Uh,

482
01:15:34,844 --> 01:15:35,747
He's a funny guy.

483
01:15:36,155 --> 01:15:40,612
But he is in the fight with Operation Economic Fury.

484
01:15:42,011 --> 01:15:46,600
And no one likes what Besant is doing. He's helping Putin.

485
01:15:46,756 --> 01:15:58,155
We're about seven weeks into the war with Iran. And I wondered, Mr. Secretary, given that your department enforces sanctions, if you have a sense just how much Iran...

486
01:15:58,595 --> 01:16:19,627
has gained through sanctions relief since the war began. I'll tell you, estimates are $14 billion. Now, President Trump's described the Obama-Iran deal as a disaster and a scandal because of the money Iran got, which was about $1.7 billion. I don't know how you describe $14 billion, but you don't have to read The Art of War to know that.

487
01:16:19,876 --> 01:16:44,108
helping your adversaries gain money while you're at war is a terrible idea. And it's shocking to me that the countries currently profiting from the release of sanctions are our enemies. No country has profited more from this war than Russia. Oil and gas prices are up nearly 50% since February. And it'd be bad enough if Russia were just profiting from higher global oil prices.

488
01:16:44,195 --> 01:16:46,699
But your Treasury Department lifted sanctions.

489
01:16:46,699 --> 01:17:08,688
on Russian oil, giving them an extra $150 million a day in revenue. And those funds are going not just to kill Ukrainians, but Russia's using its profits to support Iran with drones and intelligence to kill our troops. Wait a minute, wait. When are Russians giving them drones? This is the king of the drone makers is Iran.

490
01:17:08,807 --> 01:17:30,252
They're the drone, you know, gurus. Well, and they're the ones who supplied Russia with their drones. And so now Russia is giving what they just send the ones they sent back. So the distinguished gentleman from Delaware, Senator Chris Coons, Democrat, thinks he can fight gay General Patton, who does not come with a bazooka. He comes with his calculator.

491
01:17:30,252 --> 01:17:45,699
Do you disagree that Iran has received significant additional revenue from their sales of oil because of sanctions relief? I couldn't disagree more. Okay. Do you disagree that Russia has received significant additional revenue from the sanctions relief? I couldn't disagree more. Okay.

492
01:17:45,855 --> 01:18:10,568
Why did you relieve the sanctions against Russian and Iranian oil? Think of it this way, sir. There's the straight of foremost. Familiar with it. There is oil to the left and to the right. There is to the right. The Treasury was able to, just as you are concerned about gasoline prices for the American consumer and for our Asian allies, as are we.

493
01:18:10,912 --> 01:18:13,703
Treasury was able to create.

494
01:18:14,079 --> 01:18:30,184
They have more than 250 million barrels on the water. And the way to think about this is, as they came in today, the oil prices are at $100. If we had not done that sanctions early, they might have been at $150 because the world became very well supplied.

495
01:18:30,912 --> 01:18:36,167
So if Russia was selling their oil at a 20% discount,

496
01:18:36,768 --> 01:18:43,655
tell you that 100% of 100 is less than 80% of 150, and the American consumer has been better.

497
01:18:44,416 --> 01:18:45,100
Senator.

498
01:18:45,100 --> 01:19:00,971
You can't do math. Well, we also folks in Delaware are buying four dollar a gallon gas today. I don't see that we've seen a significant reduction in the price of the pump or the price on the world markets. But I have two more questions I want to get to. And I look forward to disputing with you the details.

499
01:19:00,971 --> 01:19:20,655
I believe that Russia and Iran have benefited from the release of sanctions. And when you said we're not going to extend sanctions relief and then we're reversed, I was deeply disheartened because we shouldn't be funding Putin's war machine. I would like to take that was as a result. Last week was Bank Week, World Bank and IMF Week. John, we missed Bank Week?

500
01:19:21,095 --> 01:19:22,608
Yeah, we miss bank week.

501
01:19:23,239 --> 01:19:23,855
It's

502
01:19:25,287 --> 01:19:40,912
And on Wednesday, it was my belief we would not do it. I was approached by more than 10 of the most vulnerable and poorest countries in terms of energy. And they asked us to extend that sanction. And it's only for 30 days.

503
01:19:41,511 --> 01:19:45,100
30 days, $4.5 billion to Putin's war machine. Yes.

504
01:19:45,100 --> 01:19:48,079
You're a Putin lover. You're all in with Putin.

505
01:19:48,583 --> 01:20:11,439
This last clip was, I think, to me, the most interesting because this is where the U.S. dollar comes into play as it diminishes constantly as the reserve asset currency, reserve currency of the globe. But Gay General Patton has been requested to do things and he is doing them and it will save our bacon. Government of the UAE.

506
01:20:12,840 --> 01:20:36,463
As I'm sure you probably know, President Trump and his family have done a very brisk business with the UAE over the last few years. There was the 500. Is this the right one? We understand that the UAE, a million dollars that Sheikh Tahnoon, the UAE's national security advisor and brother, the president, invested in World Liberty Financial, which is Trump.

507
01:20:36,520 --> 01:20:44,800
family crypto venture right before the president's inauguration. There was the $2 billion in World Liberty stable coin.

508
01:20:44,891 --> 01:20:51,235
used to invest in Binance, a deal that effectively handed world liberty.

509
01:20:51,739 --> 01:20:59,011
billion in cash at the same time that the United States government relaxed our export controls on high-end AI.

510
01:20:59,547 --> 01:21:05,859
and ships to UAE companies. And now...

511
01:21:06,332 --> 01:21:11,460
I understand that the UAE is looking for...

512
01:21:12,188 --> 01:21:13,252
A swap line.

513
01:21:13,627 --> 01:21:17,828
The war in Iran has already cost us dearly.

514
01:21:18,747 --> 01:21:23,363
In my view, it's been a huge mistake, made us less safe.

515
01:21:24,699 --> 01:21:32,515
a lot worse off. In addition to lives lost, we're talking about over a billion dollars a day in taxpayer money.

516
01:21:33,372 --> 01:21:36,996
We're talking about higher gas prices. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

517
01:21:37,564 --> 01:21:44,199
higher prices overall and now given we understand that the u_a_a_ is asking

518
01:21:44,323 --> 01:22:04,587
you to provide them a swap line. So just so people understand, this is not like money we're going to give them a swap line as we get their reals, which are pegged to the dollar. So it's exactly the same thing. It's just giving them U.S. dollars to, well, Scott Besson will explain. Through the exchange stabilization.

519
01:22:05,380 --> 01:22:08,460
Mr. Secretary, can you talk about this request and whether or not

520
01:22:08,996 --> 01:22:10,731
you expect to

521
01:22:11,108 --> 01:22:13,387
support it.

522
01:22:13,796 --> 01:22:37,880
Senator, I would dispute much of what you earlier said and any linkages to this swap line. Many of our Gulf allies have requested swap lines. You would have just read about the UAE and swap lines, whether it's from the Federal Reserve or the Treasury, are to maintain order in the dollar funding markets and to prevent the sale.

523
01:22:37,880 --> 01:22:44,199
of the US assets in a

524
01:22:44,355 --> 01:22:44,939
Yeah, right.

525
01:22:45,444 --> 01:22:59,692
disorderly way. So the swap line would both benefit the UAE and the US. And as I said, numerous other countries, including some of our Asian allies have also requested them.

526
01:23:00,036 --> 01:23:03,851
All oil in U.S. dollars, exactly.

527
01:23:04,323 --> 01:23:06,859
That's exactly the right thing to do.

528
01:23:07,844 --> 01:23:09,068
senators.

529
01:23:10,243 --> 01:23:11,659
They do not know anything.

530
01:23:12,355 --> 01:23:15,051
No, they don't. They really don't.

531
01:23:16,068 --> 01:23:20,395
you doing? That's Trump. It's making Trump rich.

532
01:23:24,387 --> 01:23:24,876
All right.

533
01:23:26,148 --> 01:23:41,228
We can talk about Iran, or I got these Vax clips I wanted to get out of the way. Vax clips? Oh, okay. Let's talk about the Vax for a while. We haven't. What you got in Vax land? Well, I got the, I actually have one I want to play from the last show. I didn't move it over.

534
01:23:41,572 --> 01:23:42,828
But let's start with this.

535
01:23:43,235 --> 01:23:44,399
This is the

536
01:23:45,771 --> 01:23:46,707
Yeah, this is the...

537
01:23:48,971 --> 01:24:03,891
Let's start with the Ron Johnson going after the vaxxers. Finally, let's just put up this graph. Because of your radical transparency, I've got close to 11 million pages. We uncovered they hid the signal on myocarditis.

538
01:24:03,979 --> 01:24:28,115
We also just recently uncovered that they also hit a signal on ischemic stroke for people over 65, the tail in 2022, 2023. They hit both signals. They downplayed them. But what is most alarming, and we'll be holding a hearing on this next week, I've got a draft report. They were made aware, Peter Marks was made aware on March 26th of 2021 that the...

539
01:24:28,300 --> 01:24:44,800
of the algorithm that analyzes the various data was going to mask adverse events. He was told that by using a different system, they had uncovered 49 examples of extreme masking.

540
01:24:45,819 --> 01:24:52,899
significant adverse events, including sudden cardiac death, Bell's palsy, pulmonary infarction.

541
01:24:53,724 --> 01:25:13,956
So this report will be issued in conjunction with that hearing. Again, I didn't need a sophisticated mathematical model to tell me that we had safety signals screaming at us. This chart shows the deaths associated with vaccines all the way going back to 1990 when Bayer started, a couple hundred a year.

542
01:25:15,228 --> 01:25:25,220
that type of thing. 2021, over 20,000 deaths and for five years, FDA has been saying, we don't see a signal.

543
01:25:25,787 --> 01:25:32,100
This was a signal screaming at us that to this very day, we are covering up.

544
01:25:32,572 --> 01:25:44,100
are a bunch of people involved in this cover-up that still continue to work within the HHS, CDC, FDA. I want your commitment that those people be made available for interviews. I'll have to subpoena others.

545
01:25:44,608 --> 01:25:46,823
going to dig into this massive government.

546
01:25:47,328 --> 01:25:51,399
You have my commitment. Thank you. Yeah. Nothing will come of it.

547
01:25:52,064 --> 01:25:57,064
But there it is. Now you have to look this one up. This is called.

548
01:25:57,471 --> 01:25:59,912
Vax study batches.

549
01:26:01,920 --> 01:26:03,271
Two shows ago.

550
01:26:03,712 --> 01:26:05,448
Vax study.

551
01:26:05,855 --> 01:26:07,912
Hmm.

552
01:26:09,119 --> 01:26:11,463
Vax... Batches maybe?

553
01:26:14,207 --> 01:26:20,072
That's odd, John. I don't see it. Oh, spell study with two Ts. Oh.

554
01:26:24,351 --> 01:26:28,648
Uh, no. Vax? Is it Vax with one X?

555
01:26:28,992 --> 01:26:31,399
V-A-X, all caps.

556
01:26:33,631 --> 01:26:44,500
AX space space. Yeah. S T. I'm sorry. I don't have it. S T T U D Y. I don't have this clip.

557
01:26:44,847 --> 01:26:50,904
I can, you have to. From how long ago is it? Two shows ago. Well, let me go look in that bin. Hold on a second.

558
01:26:51,663 --> 01:26:55,064
take me but a second. So from 1860.

559
01:26:56,047 --> 01:26:57,528
you have from 419.

560
01:26:59,471 --> 01:27:01,144
I have vaccine food.

561
01:27:01,520 --> 01:27:10,648
And VAC study bachelor should be right under it. No, it's not in there. Well, then it got moved up one maybe, but I didn't see it anyplace else. Uh. It'll be on the next show then.

562
01:27:11,247 --> 01:27:12,503
Okay, hold on. That would be...

563
01:27:12,847 --> 01:27:14,935
1861, the last one.

564
01:27:15,408 --> 01:27:17,720
And I see there we have...

565
01:27:18,800 --> 01:27:37,076
Oh, interesting. Yep, I have it. Okay, we got it. We now have peer-reviewed published data by Schmeling and colleagues from Denmark, basically a bombshell study. They found that 4.2% of the batches, of the doses that were dosed out of that batch...

566
01:27:37,076 --> 01:27:44,300
counted for skyrocketing serious adverse events, hospitalization, and death. That was 4.2%.

567
01:27:44,488 --> 01:28:01,104
In a sense, really bad batches. There was about two-thirds of batches that were moderate, pretty low risk, moderate. And then, interestingly, a third, zero. There was basically that line didn't come up. They took a shot and nothing happened. Nothing happened.

568
01:28:01,927 --> 01:28:08,880
Yeah. Well, we had reports. Which brings me to the point I've been wanting to make. Okay. Which is liability.

569
01:28:10,024 --> 01:28:23,119
This brings us back to the good old days with the swine flu vax that one of these companies released, if you recall. That was just swine flu. You get shot, you get swine flu. It killed people. Yeah, it killed people.

570
01:28:23,783 --> 01:28:28,336
But there's no – they've got – why can't they talk about liability more?

571
01:28:29,000 --> 01:28:32,368
Even McCullough, who was there, he was the one giving that yakety yak.

572
01:28:32,935 --> 01:28:34,576
He doesn't mention it.

573
01:28:35,591 --> 01:28:40,528
It needs to be mentioned all the time. You can't bring a product out and sell it to the public.

574
01:28:40,872 --> 01:28:44,399
Without liability. You can't be.

575
01:28:44,524 --> 01:28:48,979
you know, indemnified by the government for bringing out crap.

576
01:28:51,243 --> 01:29:01,108
Okay, I'm done with that. Well, you know, RFK Jr. has promised he's going to take care of all that. Yeah, he hasn't done anything. Well, the only thing he did, just before you get to your next Vax clip.

577
01:29:01,836 --> 01:29:05,587
You know, they did sign that executive order.

578
01:29:06,188 --> 01:29:09,363
about disclosing all of the...

579
01:29:10,796 --> 01:29:12,884
side effects of, uh,

580
01:29:15,819 --> 01:29:18,579
know, in your advertising.

581
01:29:21,195 --> 01:29:23,155
Oh, that'll do it.

582
01:29:24,108 --> 01:29:28,787
By your theory, by the way, by your theory.

583
01:29:29,292 --> 01:29:31,699
That would just draw people to the Vax.

584
01:29:32,779 --> 01:29:34,068
That's your cigarette theory.

585
01:29:35,404 --> 01:29:36,756
Yeah.

586
01:29:37,612 --> 01:29:42,644
That theory, yeah, you're right. So it's either ban or nothing.

587
01:29:43,148 --> 01:29:43,828
You're right.

588
01:29:44,684 --> 01:29:58,484
Whenever you say it's going to kill you, people want it. It's crazy. Yeah. It's like Ozempic. I'm a tough guy. Tough guy. Ozempic, literally. You don't want to have sex. You get eye cancer. Your liver goes to crap. Your pancreas fails.

589
01:29:59,372 --> 01:30:00,307
Want to look good?

590
01:30:02,444 --> 01:30:04,051
You're looking good.

591
01:30:04,427 --> 01:30:07,796
Now, this last one is just kind of an aside, but I think it's pretty funny.

592
01:30:08,203 --> 01:30:10,484
This is them, you've seen this character.

593
01:30:10,891 --> 01:30:14,579
He's McCullough's right-hand man. He's this kind of dull guy.

594
01:30:15,212 --> 01:30:20,756
who talks with, he's just an adult guy. And he's talking about, this is the Vax flu shot.

595
01:30:21,100 --> 01:30:44,800
Causes dementia. The largest single study ever conducted on vaccines and dementia with over 13 million people in it found that vaccinated adults who got flu shots and pneumococcal shots, they faced a 50% increased risk of Alzheimer's and a 38% increased risk of dementia.

596
01:30:45,148 --> 01:30:53,408
And the risk increased the more doses they got. So they started to get more flu shots that they lined up every year to get it.

597
01:30:53,408 --> 01:31:17,380
Unfortunately, they face the highest risks of neurodegenerative conditions. No way. And the risk persisted for over 10 years. And so it appears, you know, once you receive so many of these shots, it is inducing neuroinflammatory injury, dementia and Alzheimer's in vaccinated adults. So not only now do we know that the flu shot.

598
01:31:17,435 --> 01:31:38,435
doesn't work according to Shrestha and colleagues out of the Cleveland Clinic flu shots increase your risk of flu by 27% so not only do they do that but now it appears that they increase your risk of dementia which is absolutely terrible holy mackerel you didn't hear that one no

599
01:31:39,003 --> 01:31:42,212
And we have a dementia epidemic in our country.

600
01:31:43,036 --> 01:31:46,300
Yeah. And in Europe, I know lots of people who have.

601
01:31:46,583 --> 01:31:51,807
parents who have early onset dementia. Wow.

602
01:31:52,344 --> 01:31:55,231
You probably have a lot of your friends who have just gone cuckoo.

603
01:31:56,152 --> 01:32:07,231
Well, losing their minds. It's getting there. I mean, it depends. I don't know personally that many people that line up for the flu shot every year anymore. But if you have a precondition of being a Democrat.

604
01:32:08,024 --> 01:32:09,087
Yeah, well, that's true.

605
01:32:09,720 --> 01:32:11,231
it worse.

606
01:32:11,863 --> 01:32:12,479
Wow.

607
01:32:13,528 --> 01:32:15,807
Oh, that's, oh, man.

608
01:32:16,216 --> 01:32:30,144
Again, liability, flu shot, who knows what's in the thing. That is, besides the fact that you have a higher chance of getting the flu. Yeah, well, that's the joke of it. Oh, man. That's almost humorous. That is just so lame.

609
01:32:31,224 --> 01:32:35,136
So I listened to the new podcast.

610
01:32:35,671 --> 01:32:39,775
The Carlson kids. Have you heard this podcast? No, I heard about it.

611
01:32:41,304 --> 01:32:46,300
I had no idea Tucker's brother's name is Buckley.

612
01:32:46,615 --> 01:32:57,984
How white can you get? Well, how Tucker and Buckley. Here's my son, Tucker, and here's my other son, Buckley. Let's go have a spot of something good.

613
01:33:00,568 --> 01:33:03,680
I don't know if it's just white or just DC.

614
01:33:04,279 --> 01:33:04,895
You know?

615
01:33:05,560 --> 01:33:24,287
Buckley. If you're in D.C. and their dad was, you know, he ran. He was a spook. Yeah, he was a spook. He ran the broadcast board of Governors Voice of America. Yeah, that was a good job. It was a great job. We'd be very good at it. I think so. If it still existed, they fired everybody, shut it down, I guess, kind of.

616
01:33:24,663 --> 01:33:26,880
Some people had to be unfired, so I don't know.

617
01:33:27,768 --> 01:33:28,576
um

618
01:33:29,015 --> 01:33:47,000
But I think if you're in D.C. and you're probably thinking, oh, I just William F. Buckley, he is just so awesome. I think, oh, why don't we, honey, why don't we name our son Buckley? Maybe we'll get invited to the party. Maybe we'll get invited to the cocktail party.

619
01:33:47,891 --> 01:33:48,667
So.

620
01:33:49,332 --> 01:33:54,619
Both conservative, apparently. And these clips are relatively short.

621
01:33:55,252 --> 01:34:19,228
But both are just so disappointed. They just feel like they've been betrayed. Betrayed by Trump. Where a lot of people who really like Trump are very disappointed in Trump. In fact, more than disappointed, feel betrayed or enraged. Feel like suckers. Feel like they've been taken for a ride. How could I possibly have supported that given what it became?

622
01:34:19,764 --> 01:34:32,412
and thumped a couple times. A lot of people seem to feel that way. But do a lot of people seem to feel that way? Do they actually feel that way? According to polls... They did. Now, there's a... Wait.

623
01:34:32,916 --> 01:34:39,292
can't put forth a thesis that is kind of –

624
01:34:39,764 --> 01:34:45,115
assertive and then then ask the question am i right am i wrong you can do that on a podcast

625
01:34:45,747 --> 01:34:47,899
You can do anything you want on a podcast.

626
01:34:48,503 --> 01:34:50,591
A lot of people seem to feel that way.

627
01:34:51,832 --> 01:34:55,488
Do a lot of people seem to feel that way? Do they actually feel that way?

628
01:34:55,927 --> 01:35:03,072
According to polls on CNN, 100% of MAGA voters still support Trump. 100%.

629
01:35:04,055 --> 01:35:24,095
Is that real? Well, it's really hard to know given how fraudulent so much polling is. So we thought we would speak to the one person we know who sincerely supported Trump from the very beginning. Wrote speeches for Trump in 2015, voted for Trump three times.

630
01:35:24,119 --> 01:35:33,408
New people within the Trump White House worked with the Trump White House. Nick Fuentes, you said for the writing speeches, is the same – he voted for Trump three times. All wrong.

631
01:35:33,912 --> 01:35:48,100
I already had Nick on. This is a new guest. We've never had this guest on the show. That period, 10 years, supported Trump in public, not on television, which is easy, but in his own neighborhood, which was 100% Trump haters.

632
01:35:48,640 --> 01:35:52,872
That person is my brother, it turns out. Buckley Carlson, Uncle Buck, as he's known to us.

633
01:35:53,920 --> 01:35:59,368
Buck, Chuck, you don't have brothers or sisters, but I would never call my brother uncle anything.

634
01:35:59,743 --> 01:36:04,007
I don't have a brother. I wouldn't call him Aunt Tiffany, Aunt Willow. No.

635
01:36:04,832 --> 01:36:06,152
Anyway, so here's Buckley.

636
01:36:06,560 --> 01:36:20,648
And you can imagine what the breaking point was. What broke these men? What was the breaking point for you? Really, initially, it was the attack.

637
01:36:21,471 --> 01:36:24,039
The attack on Iran. Why is he laughing over that?

638
01:36:25,408 --> 01:36:31,463
He laughs at it. He also has the same intonations that Tucker does in his voice. Yeah, it's a million.

639
01:36:31,807 --> 01:36:48,100
It was the attack. And he also stretches words like was the. That's an important DC thing. Yeah. I'm never going to get through these. It's 26 seconds. No, you're not. Not with this guy. It was the.

640
01:36:50,176 --> 01:36:52,520
The attack on Iran initially last year.

641
01:36:52,895 --> 01:37:04,264
I guess we successfully eradicated all of their nuclear capability. You aware? Because it was still on. I'd heard that. It may still be on the White House website because it was on there even when we engaged.

642
01:37:04,927 --> 01:37:13,832
This latest war with Iran, this unnecessary, what will be probably a forever war that has killed Americans and is going to degrade us as a country.

643
01:37:14,528 --> 01:37:21,224
Um, significantly. Already has. Speculation? Significantly. Already has. I don't know.

644
01:37:21,600 --> 01:37:45,800
It's a betrayal of the promises. That's what it is, because politicians never betray anybody with their campaign promises. President Trump has come through on a number of them, but this one was the breaking point. What? And then the war in Iran, which clearly, you know, had no plan for wasn't enthusiastic about at all. He was fully aware of the risks. He was fully aware that it was a betrayal of his explicit promises for 10 years not to do.

645
01:37:45,823 --> 01:37:48,399
this he did it okay

646
01:37:48,619 --> 01:37:50,323
So he didn't want to do it.

647
01:37:51,595 --> 01:38:01,300
No, he said he really didn't want to. He wanted to negotiate and he gave him two weeks and then he struck him early. But you're kind of leading towards something, I think, here, Tucker.

648
01:38:01,707 --> 01:38:09,108
He did it against his will. That's my against his will. Ah, OK. Highly informed read. Highly informed read.

649
01:38:10,315 --> 01:38:16,115
Okay. Yes. What? Yes. He did it against his will. This goes back to the New York Times.

650
01:38:16,684 --> 01:38:30,131
He was – Bibi Netanyahu controls Donald Trump. Oh, OK. Yeah, there you go. Sorry. This is what it is. He did it against his will. That's my highly informed read. Yes. I mean I could be wrong. My highly informed read.

651
01:38:30,667 --> 01:38:36,564
He goes, it's my highly informed, which is like a cheat word.

652
01:38:37,579 --> 01:38:48,399
We don't know if it's highly informed or not. But he says it is, so it must be. You and I are reliably informed, and he is only highly informed. I think our reliably trumps his highly. We don't know that.

653
01:38:48,811 --> 01:38:51,155
I'm going to, I'm informed. I am.

654
01:38:51,532 --> 01:39:03,188
I mean, I could be wrong. You know, you don't know what people's motives actually are. Could be wrong. Could be wrong. Weasel. From very close vantage, I can say I don't think he was excited about it.

655
01:39:03,756 --> 01:39:04,948
did it.

656
01:39:05,452 --> 01:39:13,939
Clearly he felt he had no choice. So, and I think that's widely understood. Yes. Yeah. Yes. But I have no sympathy for him.

657
01:39:15,148 --> 01:39:27,283
No, but this is all leading to one thing. Israel. It's still reprehensible and it's still a big question mark. Why would someone who has obvious and demonstrated allegiance to a foreign power?

658
01:39:28,268 --> 01:39:37,619
Donald Trump, $250 million while he's running for president. I mean, how is that defensible? It's really not. If Russia... Wait a minute.

659
01:39:41,355 --> 01:39:47,899
How much money did Kamala Harris get in like three weeks? Two billion dollars? One point five.

660
01:39:48,376 --> 01:39:50,399
Billion.

661
01:39:52,311 --> 01:39:53,728
you know, if,

662
01:39:54,391 --> 01:40:16,000
The mayor of Moscow had somehow, you know, assembled an enormous amount of money and put it in a 501 C-3 for Trump's benefit. Would that have been acceptable? Of course it wouldn't have been. Where were you when it came down to Hunter Biden getting the money from the mayor of Moscow? What kind of analogy is this? So what does someone, it's so basic, comes back to the money. Like, what did they get?

663
01:40:17,720 --> 01:40:18,336
for that.

664
01:40:18,712 --> 01:40:21,408
amount of investment.

665
01:40:22,264 --> 01:40:29,631
The accusation here, I think, is because he got $250 million from a Jew, Miriam Adelson.

666
01:40:30,872 --> 01:40:38,560
That that is the reason why he went to war in Iran. He got more money from Musk. For $250 million into a...

667
01:40:39,384 --> 01:40:47,300
So what does someone, it's so basic. Just make me president, Miriam, and I'll hit Iran for you. I got other things to do, but I'll hit Iran, I promise you.

668
01:40:47,456 --> 01:40:49,992
back to the money? Like, what did they get in return?

669
01:40:51,648 --> 01:41:02,536
amount of investment. And it's clear. I get it. No, I mean, of course, I agree with every word that you're saying. I just think you should say that given his John, could you say that more often to me?

670
01:41:03,935 --> 01:41:24,423
I agree with every word you say. You have to say, of course, I agree with every 100%. Of course, I agree with every word you say. 100%. I agree with everything you're saying. I'm not using 100%. Oh, come on. It's racist. For that amount of investment. And it's clear. I get it. No, I mean, of course, I agree with every word that you're saying. I just think, given his behavior.

671
01:41:24,863 --> 01:41:41,000
and has demonstrated disloyalty and viciousness to previous supporters. Yes. Why wouldn't he display the same lack of loyalty to Miriam Adelson? What? I mean, that's kind of the question. The only people he's been loyal to.

672
01:41:41,600 --> 01:41:45,287
Are the neocons and his donors.

673
01:41:45,663 --> 01:41:48,199
He's attacked, you know, so he attacks Islam.

674
01:41:48,804 --> 01:41:59,467
Some of us stand up and say, probably she didn't attack Islam. I don't know. He said praise be to Allah. Yeah, I was said attacking Islam.

675
01:41:59,908 --> 01:42:06,539
I mean, what's her name? The actress said, Inshallah, the other day.

676
01:42:07,171 --> 01:42:10,252
for the new Devil Wears Prada 2 movie.

677
01:42:10,595 --> 01:42:27,051
And Hathaway. So is that an attack on Islam? Who knows? The only people he's been loyal to are the neocons and his donors. So he's attacked, you know, so he attacks Islam. Some of us stand up and say.

678
01:42:28,131 --> 01:42:32,811
shouldn't be attacking a religion oh you're a muslim secret muslim you love muslim yes you are

679
01:42:33,252 --> 01:42:33,836
This is...

680
01:42:34,340 --> 01:42:48,600
You do love Muslims. I love lots of Muslims. No. Just I like reverence and I don't think you should attack people on the basis of their religion. Don't attack their religion. Yes. And all these like evangelicals are like, oh, you're a Muslim.

681
01:42:49,011 --> 01:42:54,524
So next week he attacks Jesus. OK, because it's all he attacks Jesus.

682
01:42:55,252 --> 01:43:17,051
When did he attack Jesus? That's the Messiah meme. He attacked Jesus. Oh, the AI art. Yes, he attacked Jesus. And all these evangelicals are like, oh, you're a Muslim. The next week he attacks Jesus. Attacks. Okay, because it's all connected, right? Clearly. Of course. Well, yeah.

683
01:43:17,492 --> 01:43:40,091
Obviously. Well, right. But the one person he's never going to attack is Rebby Schneerson. A Jew. Yes. Who? Rebby Schneerson. Rebby Schneerson? It's a Jew. He's not an attack. And then what about Saul Goldberg? How about that? How about Saul Goldstein? Remember him? Oh, yeah. What was his show? Channel J?

684
01:43:42,484 --> 01:43:49,600
person. Oh, no, no. Goldstein, you're talking about the guy who was on... Screw Magazine? Yeah, Goldstein. He was...

685
01:43:50,140 --> 01:43:52,963
or one of them, he had some magazine, he had

686
01:43:53,467 --> 01:44:15,908
show on public access New York where he just groused and he's like, hey, I'm getting ripped off by and he tells some story about some company that owes him money. It was a great guy. Yeah, he was very funny. The person he's never going to attack is Rebby Schneerson. Yes. Oh, yeah. And, you know, the Chabad leader who's...

687
01:44:15,963 --> 01:44:19,140
but who I'm not attacking, by the way.

688
01:44:19,676 --> 01:44:26,435
But who is regarded as the Messiah by many of his followers. I don't think Trump should attack him, to be clear.

689
01:44:27,996 --> 01:44:30,564
That's the one Messiah he will never attack.

690
01:44:31,036 --> 01:44:32,547
So like, what is that?

691
01:44:33,724 --> 01:44:35,268
Am I wrong? No, you're not wrong.

692
01:44:35,771 --> 01:44:47,268
Right. So their whole thing is Israel. This is a podcast they put on the air. Two hours of it. Two hours. Two guys agreeing with each other. Yeah, it was pretty boring, but I sat through it.

693
01:44:47,771 --> 01:44:49,600
I want to contrast that.

694
01:44:50,171 --> 01:45:10,659
With an interview from Associated Press, and I pulled three clips, but I'm only going to play one, and it's enough. And this is Eric Weinstein, also conservative. I think probably— Oh, Eric, this guy's lost the plot. Well, he said something really interesting in this interview. He's a wild card.

695
01:45:11,068 --> 01:45:19,108
There are three people who are doing amazing versions of the drunken boxing game. Kanye, who's probably...

696
01:45:19,484 --> 01:45:28,068
the first one to really fail, Elon and Donald Trump. And all three of them tried to do something where you couldn't pin them down, you couldn't figure out

697
01:45:28,956 --> 01:45:49,500
like what they were going to do next. And that's what the order keeps trying to do. Like, will you commit to this? Will you say this? Will you mouth these words? And none of these people would play the game. So that's what Donald Trump is. He's a guy who's got formulas that confuse people like Sam Harris. I think that Trump is an incredibly intelligent man.

698
01:45:50,072 --> 01:46:01,855
There's incredible method in his tweets of old. You can just you can put them into a data set and you say that there are five or six different types of tweets and then the left falls for every one of them every time.

699
01:46:02,423 --> 01:46:08,960
What if the one figure everyone called unpredictable was actually the most calculated player on the board?

700
01:46:09,815 --> 01:46:14,112
Eric Weinstein flips the narrative, arguing that Donald Trump wasn't random.

701
01:46:14,520 --> 01:46:16,960
He was strategically unreadable.

702
01:46:17,304 --> 01:46:20,927
Weinstein compares Trump to a drunken boxing master.

703
01:46:21,496 --> 01:46:24,256
Impossible to anticipate. Impossible to trap.

704
01:46:25,079 --> 01:46:40,319
While critics saw chaos, he sees pattern. Messaging designed to confuse opponents, disrupt expectations, and force the system into reacting instead of controlling. And I agree with that. That is what I call the Trump algo.

705
01:46:40,823 --> 01:46:49,100
And I think you agree with it mostly. Yeah. And he does this over and over again, and that's what the yelling is.

706
01:46:49,287 --> 01:47:12,880
We're going to, you know, I'm going to bomb civil or Iran will no longer be a civilization. So, you know, so many people got upset. How can you condemn Hillary Clinton for laughing about Gaddafi being killed, but you don't condemn Trump for saying he's going to wipe a whole civilization off the face of the map? I said, well, two reasons. One, he didn't do it and we knew he wouldn't.

707
01:47:12,967 --> 01:47:16,655
And we said he wouldn't do it, too. He didn't laugh.

708
01:47:18,087 --> 01:47:25,648
He wasn't laughing about it. He wasn't laughing about a guy being killed and then a rifle stuck up his butt, which is what they did.

709
01:47:28,456 --> 01:47:29,039
So.

710
01:47:30,471 --> 01:47:39,376
I personally think, and you know, this is, people go, oh, he's doing 5D, 7D, go and chess. Nah. He's strategic. He has patterns.

711
01:47:39,815 --> 01:47:48,300
And I personally believe that this president is getting rid of the they that we always talk about. And the they is not a person. It's not Soros.

712
01:47:48,423 --> 01:48:12,015
It's not China. It's an entire system. It's a whole system that's been around for well over 100 years. And he's breaking things apart systematically. And he does not care what Tucker and Buckley think of him. He's doing it ultimately for my grandchild, the way I see it. And this pattern emerged on CNBC when he was grousing about.

713
01:48:12,104 --> 01:48:14,479
the Supreme Court.

714
01:48:14,823 --> 01:48:23,760
overruling of his tariffs. You know, we had a little setback with the Supreme Court. They said I can charge tariffs, but I have to do it a different way.

715
01:48:24,136 --> 01:48:35,311
And because of what they did, we have to pay back $160 billion. All they had to do is add one sentence, just one sentence. And that's you don't have to pay anything taken in thus far back.

716
01:48:35,880 --> 01:48:48,300
But because they didn't add, and by the way, it was a close call, too. There were justices that were powerful that I was right on the tariffs. But because we lost by just two votes, you know, just.

717
01:48:48,615 --> 01:49:02,895
Little vote, two votes. We have to pay back $165 billion. They could have with a little one sentence. You don't have to pay back tariffs that have already been received. You start from this point and you do it a different way. So we're doing it a different way.

718
01:49:03,496 --> 01:49:28,304
So the grousing is about that he has to pay it back. And all the mainstream was like, oh, get your money back. Got to pay the money back. Trump's a loser. And what he's not saying in this clip, he's not saying the tariffs are important for our country, for national security. He just offhandedly says, I got to do it a different way. He mentions two Supreme Court justices, the two that he.

719
01:49:28,583 --> 01:49:33,680
nominated Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett.

720
01:49:34,568 --> 01:49:42,032
And I think they may have been in on this because just this week I got this email from the oil baron. And he says,

721
01:49:44,136 --> 01:49:48,199
What? What are you talking about? Run on pipe, man.

722
01:49:48,292 --> 01:49:49,260
The tariffs are too...

723
01:49:49,828 --> 01:50:11,115
Sheriffs, had you even heard about this? No, tell me. So the 230, so when Trump says, yeah, I got to do that a different way. Well, boy, did he. And this was by executive order, but it came through a recommendation that has to come from the Commerce Secretary. Oh, isn't that coincidental? That's a lot, Nick.

724
01:50:11,203 --> 01:50:23,275
And the change in 232 tariffs is significant and very significant to the oil baron because it changes the tariffs on steel products.

725
01:50:24,036 --> 01:50:27,819
And before – so the way it used to be –

726
01:50:28,163 --> 01:50:37,228
is you paid 50% on the percentage of steel in a product.

727
01:50:38,083 --> 01:50:44,619
And now we change it to 50% on the entire product if it contains steel.

728
01:50:45,283 --> 01:50:48,399
Big deal. It's a huge deal. There's also...

729
01:50:48,399 --> 01:51:06,228
There's 25% on downstream products. So if it's foreign steel, it's auto parts, then it's only 25%. 10% if the metal is melted and poured in the United States. So there's all kinds of different tariffs. 15%, under 15%, there's no tariff.

730
01:51:06,380 --> 01:51:26,131
But it puts in place a system that reinvigorates, and this is what he promised to do, reinvigorates American steel. There's billions of dollars in steel plants coming online right now. They'll be fully operational by 2027, 2028.

731
01:51:26,412 --> 01:51:48,500
Yeah, the executive order could be overturned by the next president or you could have a congressional order to vote to overturn that. Right. But I don't think – Yeah, you could put it in play permanently. I don't think West Virginia will vote. It's like the steel-producing states will never vote for this, and it would be suicide because this will create –

732
01:51:48,752 --> 01:52:13,667
I believe hundreds of thousands of jobs. And I have a couple of clips here from the steel industry executive. You know, this is a lobbying. You know, it's a it's an industry group. So take it for what it is. And he kind of explains how fantastic this change is. Now, this President Trump has signed an executive order to revamp his tariffs on steel, copper and aluminum.

733
01:52:13,667 --> 01:52:33,496
The White House calls it a move to strengthen economic and national security. Brandon Ferris joins me now. He is the Steel Manufacturers Association executive vice president. All right, Brandon, great to have you here. What do these developments really mean for manufacturing and affordability? Tell us.

734
01:52:33,872 --> 01:52:48,199
Ashley, thank you so much for having us. And we are energized. The steel industry is energized. This is one of the most exciting times in recent history to be involved in the American steel industry.

735
01:52:48,260 --> 01:53:09,771
President Trump has done more for the 87,000 men and women who make America steel than any president in modern history. And what he did last week, it was a necessary move. It wasn't optional. He moved the full value of the tariffs to the full product. Before, it was based on percentage of steel.

736
01:53:09,923 --> 01:53:18,764
And we saw bad faith importers underreporting the value and avoiding paying the full tariff. And now they will be paying the full tariff.

737
01:53:18,916 --> 01:53:43,180
And the 232s are paying off for the American steel industry. Yes, this is a great gambit. Listen how much has been invested. Brandon, because there were so many critics of the tariffs saying it's a tax and the American consumer is going to ultimately pay the price. But how successful do you think the tariffs have been in accomplishing the goal that they set out to do?

738
01:53:43,652 --> 01:53:49,199
Ashley, what we believe is the president's signature trade achievement.

739
01:53:49,199 --> 01:54:00,916
is the 232 steel tariffs. And they have been historically successful. Over the last few years in our industry, they've driven $25 billion in investments.

740
01:54:01,068 --> 01:54:17,043
and they will put online an additional 4 million tons of steel capacity. And what does that mean? Putting that into perspective, with that additional 4 million tons of steel capacity, you can build 1,000 guided missile destroyers for the Navy.

741
01:54:17,195 --> 01:54:35,283
That's not just economic might. That is national security, Ashley. And there's your big, beautiful ships that we're going to build. And we will build them. And you do need steel as national security. And here come the jobs. And what about manufacturing jobs in this country, Brandon? Have we seen a turnaround on that level?

742
01:54:36,460 --> 01:54:49,100
Absolutely we have. We've got some very impressive job numbers from March. We're going to continue seeing that as the president's trade policy continues to reshore American manufacturing.

743
01:54:49,192 --> 01:55:07,024
The steel industry, those $25 billion in investments, those are going to create tens of thousands of jobs. For every steel job you have, you have six or seven throughout the value chain. And we're going to continue increasing those manufacturing jobs throughout our economy. So for the Carlson kids.

744
01:55:07,271 --> 01:55:32,079
I think that this was part of the plan all along. He knew that he would never be able to these tariffs. They're not going to last through another administration. The ones that he had put 10 percent here, 50 percent here, 100 percent there. That was just to get everybody, you know, draw them all in. And then this 232 that was done without any big brouhaha. No one reported on it, but they're permanent for all intents and purposes.

745
01:55:32,615 --> 01:55:38,735
And by 2028, when there's when there's a new president, regardless of who it is, you won't turn that back.

746
01:55:39,112 --> 01:55:49,699
then yeah, yes, is it gonna cost more? I'm sorry, oil baron, I love him, he's my brother. But okay, you've had a good ride, you can take a little less profit.

747
01:55:50,015 --> 01:56:06,344
because of your run on pipe for the next two, three years. And then, you know, it will make no sense to buy inferior steel from South Korea or from China, wherever else you get it from. It'll be American steel. And I think it will reinvigorate our country.

748
01:56:08,192 --> 01:56:18,568
And I like it. Sounds like a good catch. I like it. I like it a lot. And, you know, Trump never going to suck them off.

749
01:56:19,840 --> 01:56:25,095
Well, you know, I got a grandkid coming, so I like it. I don't mind. Yeah, I'll take the pain.

750
01:56:25,663 --> 01:56:29,992
I will lay face down in the mud so my grandchildren can walk over my back.

751
01:56:32,127 --> 01:56:35,176
I got one last little thing here to discuss.

752
01:56:36,127 --> 01:56:43,271
Yeah, you're going to make the sacrifice. I like that. John's like, hey, Theodorable, get off my back.

753
01:56:43,807 --> 01:56:46,631
What are you walking on my back for, kid?

754
01:56:48,684 --> 01:56:54,323
I just want to get this one thing, the cigarette thing out of the way. Cigarette thing? Yeah, the...

755
01:56:55,435 --> 01:57:04,532
I got one short clip, I think, that covers it. Yeah, WBAL-TV, Baltimore, UK ban on smoking for anyone born after 2008.

756
01:57:04,971 --> 01:57:27,764
like the Maldives and Bhutan have enacted total tobacco bans, but with a population of nearly 70 million people, this ban in the UK could have serious and long-term impacts. Under the tobacco and vape spill, the legal age for buying tobacco will increase by one year every year, starting with people born on or after January 1st, 2009.

757
01:57:27,948 --> 01:57:37,971
This means children in the UK who are 17 or younger will never be able to legally buy cigarettes. I've seen this report and, you know, people like.

758
01:57:39,243 --> 01:57:40,051
kids smoke

759
01:57:40,587 --> 01:57:48,399
It's about purchasing. They're not going to arrest you if you're smoking on the street. Well, let's see. The other thing is this.

760
01:57:48,844 --> 01:57:54,644
Mimi dug up an interview with the head of Philip Morris from, I don't know, 10 years ago. Yeah.

761
01:57:55,051 --> 01:58:18,927
And he predicted this because the company, and nobody's covered this at all, and Philip Morris may be behind this, may be an op. They don't want to sell cigarettes and tobacco products. It's always tobacco products anymore because they sell the straight-up chemicals in vapes. Yes, they want to sell the nicotine. And they sell the little chewy thing you put in your mouth. Yeah, the pods. Yes.

762
01:58:18,927 --> 01:58:43,680
Yeah, instead of the tobacco chew, there's no tobacco. Because tobacco products are a pain in the ass. They're staying on the shelves. People aren't buying them anyway. They're buying the vapes. And the way the CEO told it, there's a clip I could have, but it's hard to clip. It was, we got China. Our tobacco product's fine. We make tobacco products for China. Those guys love smoking.

763
01:58:43,680 --> 01:58:48,199
I love smoking. Nobody else does. Everyone else wants to vape.

764
01:58:48,387 --> 01:58:53,131
They want to chew on a ball, you know, that kind of thing. So the whole thing is.

765
01:58:53,539 --> 01:58:58,155
Chew on a ball? I think filled with nicotine salts.

766
01:58:58,756 --> 01:58:59,851
Vaping.

767
01:59:00,195 --> 01:59:07,595
Yeah, you do. You're a big vapor. There's a lot to be said about you. You used to smoke like you were a smoker. I would tell that.

768
01:59:08,003 --> 01:59:11,307
class. You know, Adam used to not only smoke.

769
01:59:12,163 --> 01:59:14,091
But he was a dilettante about it.

770
01:59:14,532 --> 01:59:16,524
And he liked to roll his own.

771
01:59:17,796 --> 01:59:42,475
That's because I was rolling weed in it. I wasn't just smoking tobacco. Yeah, you were rolling weed in it, but it was always this rigmarole. You didn't use a little machine to make a cool-looking cigarette. No, that's gay. You rolled it with hand rolls. That's gay. No, man, I've been rolling my own since I was 15 years old. He did a little roll. He's rolling his own. It looks just like they all do. They look like shit. No

772
01:59:42,692 --> 01:59:49,199
They were spliffs, in fact. That is the traditional name for what I would smoke. And I enjoyed it very much.

773
01:59:50,380 --> 01:59:53,555
And I'm amazed that Tina married me, despite me being a...

774
01:59:54,220 --> 01:59:56,307
wake and bake guy.

775
01:59:56,939 --> 02:00:00,404
It was amazing. She even decided to – Waken, baby.

776
02:00:01,579 --> 02:00:20,916
that one. Oh, John, I would wake up at three in the morning. These days, since I quit smoking, I sleep like a baby. I sleep all the way through, you know, seven and a half hours if I'm really lucky, but six and a half, seven hours. I wake up with my own accord before the alarm. But when I was smoking weed, I would take a 50 milligram gummy, go to bed.

777
02:00:21,868 --> 02:00:22,420
with.

778
02:00:23,020 --> 02:00:28,884
And then I'd wake up at 3 in the morning like, I'm awake. I'd go out on the porch, smoke a whole joint, go back to bed.

779
02:00:29,931 --> 02:00:35,956
It was pretty severe. Now. That's bad. You would say that I was a lot more fun back in the day.

780
02:00:37,228 --> 02:00:42,420
But I don't. I would. Well, you would have. But I don't think I don't think I've changed that much.

781
02:00:43,467 --> 02:00:49,399
I don't think you changed that much either. To be honest about it, you're pretty much – I don't think that the we thing was –

782
02:00:49,555 --> 02:00:56,220
I think it was just habitual. I wasn't really affecting your personality to any extent, except, you know, when you first smoke sometimes.

783
02:00:57,076 --> 02:01:07,100
Remember the time you were out in front of Mevio, smoking a joint, and as the employees wandered in whenever they felt like.

784
02:01:07,891 --> 02:01:12,188
Hey, you'd always greet him. Hey, I'm glad you could finally make it to work.

785
02:01:14,739 --> 02:01:29,083
One after the other. And did that stop pretty quick after I was sitting out there smoking my weed and telling them that I was happy they could finally make it? No, not really. Yes, it did. It made a difference. It went out of business anyway.

786
02:01:31,604 --> 02:01:37,595
It wasn't a great idea. You're ahead of your time is the reason. No, no one's making money on podcast networks.

787
02:01:38,003 --> 02:01:49,800
Yeah, they're making money by selling to other dummies. Well, yes, there's that. But that's been that has always been my plight. I'm always 10 years too early. Yeah, look at that guy. He made a billion dollars.

788
02:01:50,916 --> 02:01:51,467
you

789
02:01:51,811 --> 02:02:03,467
Now, we went public in 1996. Woo! You know, two years later, people, you know, Mark Cuban made $10 billion on selling a domain name.

790
02:02:03,876 --> 02:02:05,420
I was the first one.

791
02:02:05,956 --> 02:02:06,828
No.

792
02:02:07,235 --> 02:02:08,844
Face it. I think it was $3 billion.

793
02:02:09,444 --> 02:02:20,652
Okay. This is my plight. This is what it is. Yeah, Cuban had the domain. Mark Cuban's claim to fame. Broadcast.com. He put up the domain name broadcast.com.

794
02:02:21,412 --> 02:02:26,731
Pretty much. Yeah, I think it was Yahoo that said, well, we'll give you a couple billion for it. Yeah. Okay.

795
02:02:27,300 --> 02:02:37,131
That was how he made his fortune. He was live streaming. He's a marketing genius. He's a business genius. Yes, he was live streaming radio stations.

796
02:02:37,572 --> 02:02:45,868
and selling ads around it, then he would literally go to the stations and say, I'm becoming a billionaire off of your product. Thanks.

797
02:02:46,372 --> 02:02:50,000
And they went, okay, Mark. Okay. Sounds good.

798
02:02:50,091 --> 02:02:57,460
No, maybe I'm not shrewd enough. I'm a podcast. Let's face it. That's what I am. I've always been a disc jockey. I started when I was 13.

799
02:02:57,899 --> 02:03:08,020
I was a disc jockey then. I was a disc jockey on TV. And I'm a disc jockey now. It's your calling. Call it what you want.

800
02:03:08,619 --> 02:03:31,060
That's what I call it. I have one oddball clip that nobody's covering. Okay. This one is unreported news. Unreported. Zelensky, stolen art. On March 22nd, three paintings by French masters Cezanne Renoir and Matisse worth more than $10 million were stolen from a museum near the Italian city of Parma.

801
02:03:31,756 --> 02:03:50,000
The theft has since been investigated by Italy's Carabinieri and the Cultural Heritage Protection Unit. Surprisingly, less than a month after the heist, one of the stolen paintings, a cup and plate of cherries by Paul Cezanne, appeared in one of President Zelensky's videos.

802
02:03:50,315 --> 02:04:12,275
Presumably recorded on April 16th, the video shows Zelensky addressing Ukrainians with a stolen painting appearing on a wall directly behind his back. The video was published on the official website of the president of Ukraine, but has since been removed. This is a rare case of a stolen painting reappearing in public.

803
02:04:12,779 --> 02:04:22,484
Chris Marinello, founder of Art Recovery International, says that a very small percentage of stolen art is ever found. Five to 10 percent of all.

804
02:04:22,572 --> 02:04:46,912
art that's stolen is ever recovered, which is why we need to start focusing more on prevention. He also confirms that stolen art often ends up in countries where the rule of law is weak. They move them on through Belgium or Eastern Europe, countries where due diligence is not often practiced as it is in the West. Yeah. Yeah. Can you believe that he's got this stolen art?

805
02:04:46,912 --> 02:04:49,500
Corrupt operation.

806
02:04:50,296 --> 02:04:54,847
You know, there's no focus on him right now. That's the problem.

807
02:04:55,224 --> 02:04:57,568
Yeah, I know it's been taken away.

808
02:04:58,104 --> 02:05:02,688
Yeah. You know, and Trump is only helping Putin kill Ukrainians. So.

809
02:05:04,471 --> 02:05:14,975
Hey, with that fine little clip that no one's reporting about, I'd like to thank you for your courage. Say in the morning to you, the man who put the C in the Carlson kid. Say hello to my friend on the other end, the one, the only Mr. Still Alive.

810
02:05:19,800 --> 02:05:30,015
Well, in the morning, Mr. Adam Green, morning, ship of sea, boots of ground, feet of air, something's in the water, dames and knights out there. In the morning to you trolls over there in the troll room. Let me count you for a second. Don't move. There we go.

811
02:05:32,408 --> 02:05:36,256
1377 in the troll room listening live.

812
02:05:36,663 --> 02:05:46,783
Noagendastream.com. I've been troubleshooting. One of our producers is like, I can't hear the stream. I'm getting kicked out. It's up at DAPA.

813
02:05:48,695 --> 02:05:50,000
How can I help?

814
02:05:50,667 --> 02:05:51,731
Do I keep getting kicked out?

815
02:05:52,460 --> 02:06:10,644
Well, are you listening in a podcast app like a modern podcast at podcastapps.com? Are you listening on a – I listen at noagenda.com. Okay. We don't actually have that domain name. If you have a technical problem, you need to learn to describe a little bit what's going on.

816
02:06:11,851 --> 02:06:19,636
It's, you know, I am the help desk for no agenda. I'm the first line of defense before I toss it over my shoulder and say void zero help.

817
02:06:21,387 --> 02:06:36,180
Zero is just one of the many people who help make this show what it is. I mentioned at the top of the show, if you're listening right now, this is a value for value podcast. And people have been helping us for over 18 years in so many different ways.

818
02:06:36,555 --> 02:06:51,000
No one's a listener. Everybody's a producer. Everybody has an obligation. When it comes around to you and we're talking about something that you know that you're an expert in, you need to email us, which means email me, adamatcurry.com, because no one can spell Dvorak.

819
02:06:51,764 --> 02:06:53,372
And it's not Dvorak.com.

820
02:06:54,036 --> 02:06:54,939
Huh.

821
02:06:55,412 --> 02:06:56,636
times as that happened.

822
02:06:57,876 --> 02:07:00,731
My email's getting bounced from John at Dvorak.com.

823
02:07:02,996 --> 02:07:05,467
Is there a Dvorak.com? Do you have that? You should have that.

824
02:07:06,036 --> 02:07:15,707
Actually, I do own it. I believe it's never used. Some guy bought it for you and gave it to me, and I'm not sure who.

825
02:07:16,115 --> 02:07:21,404
I'm not sure where the registration is. I said to look it up. I went into it. No, I used .org for a reason. I'm a .org, not a...

826
02:07:21,779 --> 02:07:26,140
You're a dad-o-g kind of guy. I checked curry.com today. It doesn't expire until 2030.

827
02:07:26,612 --> 02:07:27,579
That's good. I'm good.

828
02:07:28,243 --> 02:07:29,500
So at that point, I'm done.

829
02:07:31,252 --> 02:07:32,220
got to end this sometime

830
02:07:33,492 --> 02:07:35,068
How about you?

831
02:07:36,243 --> 02:07:50,899
How about you? We've looked for so many exit strategies. At a certain point, won't we just be old and tired and just like... We went to 2030. They won't even... The whole... This is... Nah. 20... Let's get through the next election. I'm not doing another presidency.

832
02:07:50,992 --> 02:08:01,815
We can't do another presidency. That's 2028. OK. I was thinking like 2027 somewhere, you know, before before we get to the. I make my wife nervous. Stop it.

833
02:08:04,047 --> 02:08:09,463
Mimi's got five businesses she's running. She doesn't need you, the talent.

834
02:08:11,408 --> 02:08:15,703
John's the talent. We just do everything around him. I love your family. Your family's great.

835
02:08:16,623 --> 02:08:33,623
So just like the Dvorak family, everybody here pitches in and does something for the show. And we ask you to support us by returning the value that you receive from the media deconstruction that we do, which I would say someone emailed me and said, you're not keeping to your promise.

836
02:08:34,000 --> 02:08:35,671
What is our promise, John?

837
02:08:37,039 --> 02:08:38,648
We promise to deliver.

838
02:08:39,471 --> 02:08:48,695
unbiased news deconstruction no no no no no two hours and 45 minutes no what does the faq say

839
02:08:49,680 --> 02:08:50,500
does the FAQ.

840
02:08:50,560 --> 02:08:55,144
He says we do-- I didn't even know I wrote it. Yes, we do media deconstruction.

841
02:08:56,511 --> 02:09:13,640
Well, somehow that morphed into you do fair and balanced media deconstruction. So now that's Fox News stuff, which is a lie. Oh, yeah. Yeah. It doesn't matter. Fair and balanced. No fair and balanced bull crap. I'm very unbalanced, in fact.

842
02:09:15,488 --> 02:09:26,024
We are who we are. And what we don't do is we don't get captured by the audience like Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson, all these guys.

843
02:09:26,463 --> 02:09:28,551
Yeah, and started hating Jews for no good reason.

844
02:09:30,752 --> 02:09:32,904
You know, we don't care.

845
02:09:33,631 --> 02:09:37,608
Remember Ukraine? Man, I got flack in Texas for that.

846
02:09:38,304 --> 02:09:41,416
Good man, Putin man, he meanie.

847
02:09:42,368 --> 02:09:51,199
That's exactly what they said. The guy had a hair lip, basically, right? Pretty much. There were Ukraine flags everywhere.

848
02:09:51,199 --> 02:09:59,203
Like, no, this is a scam. Remember the Ukraine flags in Congress, which I think is illegal. Yeah, yeah.

849
02:09:59,836 --> 02:10:11,011
Yeah, Ukraine flags everywhere. I think huge Ukraine flags in dripping spring. No, Ukraine is one big corrupt country. Always has been. Always has been.

850
02:10:11,387 --> 02:10:26,851
And it was us. It was Victoria Nuland. It was Brennan. It was Lindsey Graham. They always want, they hate Russia. They want to invade Russia and take Russia's riches. And you still hear Coons.

851
02:10:27,228 --> 02:10:31,363
our number one enemy, Russia. No, he's not. He's not.

852
02:10:32,123 --> 02:10:40,195
We're going to do lots of business. Here's how that call went about the oil that Scott Besson lifted the sanctions on. Here's how that went.

853
02:10:40,572 --> 02:10:43,332
Vlad, it's Donald.

854
02:10:44,220 --> 02:10:51,199
Listen, we're going to release the sanctions. Whatever you do, don't give it to the Europeans. Okay, Donald, good idea.

855
02:10:52,028 --> 02:10:57,444
This sells to Japan. Everybody got oil from Russia, China, but not the EU.

856
02:10:57,979 --> 02:10:59,844
And they don't deserve it.

857
02:11:00,412 --> 02:11:01,636
They're stupid.

858
02:11:03,036 --> 02:11:07,619
cutting off the oil and gas from Russia. How stupid are they?

859
02:11:09,243 --> 02:11:12,676
This is a question you need to answer. They're very stupid. Very stupid.

860
02:11:13,020 --> 02:11:14,212
You just have the hard-on.

861
02:11:15,100 --> 02:11:17,988
hard on for Russia and for renewables.

862
02:11:19,292 --> 02:11:28,260
Windmills. Yeah, let's shut down the nuclear power plants in Germany. And see what happens. Yeah. What could possibly go wrong?

863
02:11:29,500 --> 02:11:31,011
That's right. See Brooklyn.

864
02:11:31,644 --> 02:11:51,699
So, yes, time, talent, treasure. As I said, many people put a lot of time and talent into doing things for us. And that includes artists. Now, it used to be really hard what the artist did. It's gotten a lot easier just prompting some stuff back and forth. I think did if I remember correctly, did we choose another Darren O compilation here? Let me check. Yeah.

865
02:11:52,112 --> 02:12:05,304
Episode 1861, we titled that The Cone of Uncertainty. This got some good traction on TheX.com, which is the only social network I ever look at and pretty much only my inbox or my mentions.

866
02:12:05,775 --> 02:12:24,695
And it was indeed Darren O'Neill. But he nailed it. The classic road signs, which were well done in this case. No agenda, current Dvorak, and then a digital sign. Welcome to Canada. Would you like to die today? And a nice little Canadian maple leaf in the corner.

867
02:12:25,296 --> 02:12:31,064
And a lot of Canadians responded saying, unfortunately, this is true.

868
02:12:31,695 --> 02:12:38,359
It was like the reality was pressed in front of them. They went, yeah, yeah, it kind of does suck what we're doing over here.

869
02:12:38,832 --> 02:12:44,760
So it worked. It worked. It was well done. Good idea, Darren. We appreciate it.

870
02:12:45,104 --> 02:12:47,095
Take a quick look at no agenda art generator.

871
02:12:47,439 --> 02:12:52,100
to see if there wasn't really anything else. That's what I'm checking.

872
02:12:53,024 --> 02:13:15,720
I like something and you nixed it. It was Constance Granger, the straight of whore moose, which was a toll booth. Yeah, you're right. It didn't take much to talk me out of it. If it wasn't a moose head. Well, it was a moose.

873
02:13:15,743 --> 02:13:25,256
There's a pun, but the pun was in the title. Yes, dressed as a hooker. And if you look at the title, whore moose, as in a moose that is a whore.

874
02:13:25,631 --> 02:13:32,456
It's funny, but just the art by itself, no one's going to get this. I mean, it's more like one of those riddles.

875
02:13:32,832 --> 02:13:38,631
What is it called? There's a particular kind of cartoon. They must have a term for it.

876
02:13:39,807 --> 02:13:43,688
where it's something you have to think about. We can't have people thinking about our art.

877
02:13:44,192 --> 02:13:45,543
We just can't.

878
02:13:46,399 --> 02:13:52,699
I will say that Rocket Boys, No Agenda Floss Free Zone, I think that was used in the newsletter.

879
02:13:53,079 --> 02:13:54,015
That was pretty funny.

880
02:13:57,815 --> 02:13:59,615
That was good. I like that one.

881
02:14:01,271 --> 02:14:04,543
Dana Brunetti thought that was one of the funniest things he'd ever heard.

882
02:14:06,039 --> 02:14:28,256
What? That I busted you for flossing your teeth on the show. Yeah, he said it was – I guess cracked him up. Maverick, my periodontist, says, what is this? What is this? You're telling people to stop flossing? This is no good. He got so much response. You can't floss while you're on the air. You can't do that. It's no good.

883
02:14:28,439 --> 02:14:53,300
Noagendaartgenerator.com. We encourage everybody to prompt around and do some work. And if you are an actual artist, we appreciate that even more. If you feel like it, we would love to highlight your work as the artwork for the No Agenda show, part of our Time, Talent, and Treasure initiative for the returning of value to the show, which can also come in treasure by going to noagendadonations.com.

884
02:14:53,775 --> 02:15:03,640
And we thank everybody, $50 and above. And for those who are fortunate enough to be able to give us $200 for an individual show or more.

885
02:15:04,336 --> 02:15:13,079
Not only will we read your note, guaranteed, we read lots of notes, but guaranteed your note, which is often some kind of plug for a company.

886
02:15:13,488 --> 02:15:14,583
Which is okay.

887
02:15:15,055 --> 02:15:37,492
You get the associate executive producer title, which is good for the rest of your life and is valid anywhere. Hollywood style credits are not just Hollywood style. Hollywood credits are recognized as a real credit. You can even enter it on an account. If you don't have one, you can open one up at IMDB dot com. Three hundred dollars or more. You become an executive producer. You can put it on your on your curriculum. You can put it on your resumes.

888
02:15:37,492 --> 02:15:51,000
I wonder, does Linda Lou Patkin advocate for putting your no agenda executive producer credit on your resume that gets results? I never asked her, but she might put it in the next note whether she does or not. I think it's pretty cool.

889
02:15:51,536 --> 02:15:52,247
on LinkedIn.

890
02:15:52,591 --> 02:15:53,199
It looks-

891
02:15:53,260 --> 02:15:55,539
great on LinkedIn. Absolutely.

892
02:15:56,555 --> 02:16:02,355
We also have a special promotion running for the InstaNight Order of the Heart, the Red Heart.

893
02:16:02,956 --> 02:16:07,155
Which, if you don't already have one, you will receive a no agenda. A red knight.

894
02:16:07,595 --> 02:16:13,395
The Red Knight. You will receive... What is the exact title? Because I think I'm getting it wrong every time. Red Knight.

895
02:16:14,155 --> 02:16:15,315
Order of the Heart

896
02:16:16,460 --> 02:16:28,979
All right, so we have Black Knights, but now this will be a forever Red Knight status, Order of the Heart, which includes a handsome lapel pin designed by Sir Paul Couture. Yeah, which is coming.

897
02:16:30,283 --> 02:16:42,899
coming in May. So it's a double bonus. And that will be going to Anonymous, who checked in from Salem, Oregon with $1,000, who wants to be Sir Zedonymous.

898
02:16:43,595 --> 02:16:44,948
Uh...

899
02:16:45,355 --> 02:16:49,332
But I should leave. Oh, he said he wanted to be sit-zed-onymous.

900
02:16:49,739 --> 02:16:52,600
But I should leave that for one of the Zeds.

901
02:16:52,724 --> 02:16:55,963
No, I think it must have been Sir Zed Anonymous. It was a typo.

902
02:16:57,075 --> 02:17:00,827
If it pleases the committee, may I be Sir X-Anonymous?

903
02:17:01,523 --> 02:17:09,691
I'm sure that's not a problem, sir. It's X-Gen. Sir, X-Anonymous is approved, and you will receive the Red Knight Order of the Heart in just a moment.

904
02:17:11,379 --> 02:17:12,731
Cody Dotson and

905
02:17:13,108 --> 02:17:18,747
Dobson in San Antonio. Just down the road from you, actually. $1,000.

906
02:17:19,572 --> 02:17:31,355
In the morning, good sirs, I realize I've been negligent paying the bill for my conspiracy therapist. This donation is a big thank you for all the value you both provide. John, thank God you're still recovering well.

907
02:17:31,763 --> 02:17:41,275
In such good spirits. If I can clear out my voice, maybe. Get well soon, Adam. We need more old rock and roll stories.

908
02:17:41,940 --> 02:17:42,556
Thank you.

909
02:17:43,252 --> 02:17:51,200
Really? I believe this installment makes me a red knight. Please dub me Sir Dobie, destroyer of libraries.

910
02:17:51,291 --> 02:17:54,564
I'd like to request hookers and blow at the round table that's always there.

911
02:17:54,940 --> 02:17:56,963
if the peerage committee approved.

912
02:17:57,404 --> 02:18:07,012
Sincerely, Cody W. Dobson, not your neighbor in San Antonio. P.S. Space is fake.

913
02:18:07,675 --> 02:18:08,868
We're both...

914
02:18:09,628 --> 02:18:15,876
In need of lozenges today. I just popped one myself. Thank you, Cody. Dennis.

915
02:18:16,796 --> 02:18:17,507
Kato?

916
02:18:17,852 --> 02:18:30,308
I'm going to say Cato. I guess. Cadell, no, Cato. Tampa, Florida, $3.33 and 33 cents. ITM, gentlemen, this donation is a follow-up after all your great feedback about our Be Well Manuka Honey. Ah!

917
02:18:30,780 --> 02:18:51,299
I was just talking about it. At ManukaGold.com, M-A-N-U-K-A Gold.com. We sell natural Manuka honey products. We have an extremely popular line of topical creams. But our best seller is Be Well, that's B-E-E Well, Manuka honey blended with ginger, turmeric, lemongrass, and MCT oil. Yes.

918
02:18:51,551 --> 02:18:59,079
I've been taking a spoonful of that every day in addition to the pain relief. Great for teas or topping yogurt or oatmeal.

919
02:18:59,519 --> 02:19:10,023
It's good for everything from inflammation to boosting your immune system and also tastes amazing. ManukaGold.com is offering the listeners of Gitmo Nation a 20% discount with the code.

920
02:19:10,463 --> 02:19:22,599
Bongino. No, I'm kidding. JCD. Where is Bongino? Did he stop doing his podcast? No, no. He's back on the air doing it. This is a little reticent to talk about his. No, I think he's he's taking a pause again.

921
02:19:23,615 --> 02:19:28,999
I think so. I think he got a lot of flack. Yeah, for stolen valor.

922
02:19:30,143 --> 02:19:50,299
20% discount with the code JCD20. Or for those of you in the Villages Farmer Market in Florida on Saturday mornings, we have a booth from 9 to 1. If you see us, stop by for a $20 free gift with purchase. The Villages, is that the creepy Disney village?

923
02:19:50,423 --> 02:19:53,663
No, that's celebration. Right. I forgot about that.

924
02:19:54,359 --> 02:20:07,679
As always, thank you, John and Adam. This is still the best podcast in the universe. We're happy to help keeping it going. Don't forget to use code JC20 for 20% off. Sincerely, Dennis Cato, Tampa, Florida. It's an outstanding product. I wouldn't say it if it wasn't. Thank you.

925
02:20:08,055 --> 02:20:15,167
And you don't need to donate for me to say it because it's an outstanding product. I could not believe how quickly the pain relief set in.

926
02:20:17,623 --> 02:20:20,607
and celebrations in Orlando. Have you ever been there?

927
02:20:20,983 --> 02:20:21,631
No.

928
02:20:22,583 --> 02:20:24,415
You? Worth the trip. You?

929
02:20:25,015 --> 02:20:29,439
Yeah, oh yeah. Isn't that where a whole bunch of boomers swap wives?

930
02:20:30,615 --> 02:20:32,351
Maybe. Okay.

931
02:20:33,239 --> 02:20:36,479
Film at 11. It's quite a manicured...

932
02:20:37,783 --> 02:20:44,479
Faux little city. And they drive around in golf carts? No, no. You can drive your car through that.

933
02:20:46,135 --> 02:20:50,299
Max Marder in Van Nuys, California comes up with 33333.

934
02:20:50,551 --> 02:20:55,871
Hi, Adam and John, he writes. I'm making this donation of 333.33 for my wife.

935
02:20:56,215 --> 02:21:06,271
Annie Marder for her birthday, April 26. She's a wonderful wife and mother to our two kids, and I can't think of anything she would like more than to be an executive producer for your show.

936
02:21:07,447 --> 02:21:16,575
She listens to every episode when they become available and even re-listens to them with me in the car. She adores you guys, especially John.

937
02:21:18,551 --> 02:21:26,271
please give her an extra special de-douching for her birthday. You've been de-douched.

938
02:21:26,679 --> 02:21:29,215
Happy birthday, Annie. I love you, Max.

939
02:21:29,943 --> 02:21:30,431
comma,

940
02:21:31,831 --> 02:21:34,047
Aw, that's so lovely.

941
02:21:35,543 --> 02:21:51,399
D. Bard. D. Bard in Fenton, Michigan. Row of Ducks, 222.22. First time, long time, a de-douching is in order. You've been de-douched. A thousand apologies for my belated contribution, but I am poor.

942
02:21:51,875 --> 02:21:57,419
It took me the, you should talk to the Southern Poverty Law Center. They might be able to help. It took me the better part of eight months. Wow.

943
02:21:58,339 --> 02:22:11,499
This is so appreciated. It took me the better part of eight months to save for this donation, and there is more to come. I know I could have done smaller donations, but my reasons are as follows. One, you two really deserve it, and with JCD's recent health scare,

944
02:22:11,523 --> 02:22:35,115
I knew I couldn't wait any longer, and I hope you're feeling better, John, he says. Two, I heard karma really works, and I'm in dire need of all the karma Gitmo Nation can muster. Three, with the very limited wins in my life, I think having the title of associate executive producer will not only cheer me up, but look good on my resume. Yes, you've got to take that into account. It cheers you up.

945
02:22:35,491 --> 02:22:42,027
I could not show my face at the Brighton, Michigan meetup on the 26th as a douchebag. Wow.

946
02:22:42,851 --> 02:22:49,515
So when everybody at the Brighton, Michigan meetup on the 26th, make sure you say I had a D, D Bard.

947
02:22:50,083 --> 02:22:51,499
Thank you both sincerely. Again.

948
02:22:51,655 --> 02:22:58,767
I need all the karma and prayers, but for the sake of time, I'll settle for an F-35 Karma as my jangle. Love is lit. D-Bar.

949
02:23:01,319 --> 02:23:02,223
you've got.

950
02:23:05,063 --> 02:23:20,559
karma. Eli the Coffee Guy is here in Bensonville, Illinois. 20423. With all that's going on in the world, no agenda is needed more than ever. All of us producers really appreciate the dedication. You won't get a bad ticker.

951
02:23:21,127 --> 02:23:25,359
You won't let a bad tigger or a flight across the pond stop the show.

952
02:23:26,151 --> 02:23:28,143
By the way, how's that coming? What?

953
02:23:28,839 --> 02:23:29,967
You're going to go? Yeah.

954
02:23:30,503 --> 02:23:51,699
Yeah, I'm going to be able to get back. No, it's a big no. May 6th. We're going May 6th and we're supposed to return May 13th. The show will continue as regularly scheduled. But if I can't come back, guess what? The show will continue as regularly scheduled. Keep up the great work for what happens to the dog. Oh, Jill and Mike, they got her at the ranch.

955
02:23:51,727 --> 02:23:54,999
She's fine. She loves the ranch. Okay, good.

956
02:23:55,503 --> 02:23:59,223
producers who want great coffee, visit gigawattcoffeeroasters.com.

957
02:23:59,567 --> 02:24:16,759
And use the code ITM for 20% off your first order. Stay caffeinated, says Eli, the coffee guy. You have the next two. Yes, it's ITM20 for 20% off your first order. What did I keep saying? ITM, just ITMs, ITM20. We don't want people to get bogged out of their discount.

958
02:24:17,231 --> 02:24:27,159
So the next two is interesting because Robert Mussard comes in from Riverside, California with $200 with no notes. So he will get a double up karma. You've got.

959
02:24:29,615 --> 02:24:30,071
karma.

960
02:24:30,639 --> 02:24:38,647
But then I see Linda Lou Patkin, Linda Lou, and it says see note with her $200 donation. I do not have a note.

961
02:24:39,311 --> 02:24:40,951
Do you have a note?

962
02:24:42,735 --> 02:24:45,431
But Jay did not send me a note.

963
02:24:45,807 --> 02:24:50,551
I noticed. Well, this is important. This is Linda Lou, man.

964
02:24:51,191 --> 02:24:54,111
Well, you know what we're going to do if we can't find the note?

965
02:24:55,191 --> 02:24:56,223
What will we do?

966
02:24:56,631 --> 02:25:04,959
We'll read her standard sales pitch. Well, do you have the standard sales pitch there? The last note I have from her is from May 16th.

967
02:25:05,911 --> 02:25:07,615
from last year.

968
02:25:08,023 --> 02:25:10,687
Yeah. Last year. Well.

969
02:25:11,991 --> 02:25:17,631
Well, this is a conundrum. We'll have a note from the last spreadsheet. I'll just open that up.

970
02:25:18,103 --> 02:25:19,519
Good to go. Do you have that?

971
02:25:20,375 --> 02:25:23,967
Yeah, I have it on the download list. Good, because I'm on Linux.

972
02:25:24,855 --> 02:25:48,543
Oh, if you can grab it from the last show, I feel horrible because Linda Lou, I don't think she's ever said C note. Never. So there must be. Here's what she normally says. This jobs karma. Your resume has about 10 seconds to make an impression. And most don't for a resume that gets results. Go to image makers, Inc. Dot com.

973
02:25:48,983 --> 02:25:51,699
Linda helps professionals and executives.

974
02:25:51,855 --> 02:25:55,479
Turn their executive exp... I'm... Nuts.

Where is you my dog?

I have such a good system. What's... what's...

02:35:23,583 --> 02:35:25,063
I was trying to...

1053
02:35:26,719 --> 02:35:35,079
I tried to skip that, but thanks. Yeah, I saw that. I wasn't going to let you get any of that. Poor guy. That's true. Oh, that's the wrong one. See, that's rough. That's good enough.

1054
02:35:35,807 --> 02:35:44,391
There's so many of them. I think it has to do with the classic. Here we go. That's true.

And Nate from Chris. He also said Mimi rocks.

02:35:50,367 --> 02:35:51,999
That I just missed.

1057
02:35:52,155 --> 02:35:57,635
Would have said that. I didn't miss that on purpose. Chris Kinney. We learned how to say that on the last show.

1058
02:35:58,043 --> 02:36:09,507
He said on show 1860, my parents, Mike and Becky Kinney, gifted me an instant knighthood for my 50th birthday. That's right. I would like to claim that knighthood with the following title.

1059
02:36:10,107 --> 02:36:20,547
which will be Sir Soundguy Redknight of Streaming Data, protector of the transactions. At the roundtable, I'd like to partake of Shiner Bohemian Black Lager.

1061
02:36:32,763 --> 02:36:51,331
surgery. It is named after the unique scar running up the sternum that looks a lot like a zipper. You don't say. ITM, Chris Kinney, soon to be Sir Sound Guy. Yes, that is in fact true because we have a couple of nights to welcome today and I'm going to bring up my blade. John has a little tiny one. I got one right here, the portable.

I want to thank Sir Skunkbeard for the card.

1075
02:37:57,363 --> 02:38:03,451
He sent the card and a coin, which he wanted to remind you was valuable.

1076
02:38:03,987 --> 02:38:05,531
But what coin was it?

1077
02:38:06,099 --> 02:38:07,099
It was a little coin.

1078
02:38:07,507 --> 02:38:08,315
I'll talk to you about it.

1079
02:38:09,875 --> 02:38:13,147
Oh, man, like a million dollars valuable?

1080
02:38:14,547 --> 02:38:15,739
we should be so lucky.

1081
02:38:16,435 --> 02:38:18,523
How about a Bitcoin?

1082
02:38:19,283 --> 02:38:23,611
That's good money. Somebody should send us a Bitcoin. That would be nice.

1083
02:38:24,115 --> 02:38:24,987
But we'll take whatever.

1084
02:38:25,875 --> 02:38:38,939
And we appreciate everybody supporting us, noagendadonations.com. And we always have a list of the meetups for you. These are the No Agenda meetups, which you can find at noagendameetups.com. No Agenda meetups.

1085
02:38:39,379 --> 02:38:40,123
Bye.

1086
02:38:43,891 --> 02:38:50,999
gets together all around the world, truly is an international event and happening.

1087
02:38:51,187 --> 02:39:11,739
And you can attend one near you. You can go to noagentameetups.com. This is where you will find people who will give you connection, immediate protection. These are your first responders in an emergency. And you can go visit them in the Netherlands. If you're in Scheveningen on Saturday, that'll be the second No Agenda splash-up. Oh, that's where they go swimming. Crazy people.

1088
02:39:12,051 --> 02:39:32,955
Albuquerque, the 505 meetup, also on Saturday at 2 o'clock at Tin Can Alley in Albuquerque. The Flight of the Know Agenda No. 74 in Toluca Lake, California, Foreman's Whiskey Tavern. That is Leo Bravo, the 74th meetup he has organized. And there's a lot of people that show up. That's always cool. Central Ohio, people in California need it, especially Los Angeles area.

1089
02:39:34,195 --> 02:39:51,399
The Central Ohio meetup at 5 o'clock on Saturday at Dempsey's Food and Spirits in Columbus, Ohio. And see you on Sunday, our next show day, M1. No, it's the Michigan Local 1, Spring Fling. Ah, yes, Michigan Local 1, one of the...

1090
02:39:51,399 --> 02:40:15,883
I think one of the oldest meetup groups. One o'clock at Brewery Becker in Brighton, Michigan. Still to come this month, North Toronto in Ontario on the 29th, Alfreda, Georgia on the 30th, Leipzig in Germany on the 30th. I'm expecting a lot of people to be there. Let me just take a quick look. We got so many coming up in May, June, July. October is already on the calendar. Go to noagentameetups.com.

1091
02:40:16,067 --> 02:40:29,111
This is where you can find every single one listed. Now, here's the good news. It doesn't cost anything. You don't have to, there's no, you know, like secret handshake. You just say in the morning and everyone, hey, in the morning, how you doing? And you grab a drink and you have a good time and chat about stuff.

1092
02:40:29,111 --> 02:40:42,635
You will find that even though everybody's from very diverse backgrounds, from constitutional lawyers to lowly hookers, we have them. They've been to our meetups. And by the way, not all of them are lowly. Why did I even say that? I don't know.

1093
02:40:43,203 --> 02:40:51,599
Help me. You'll find these people at No Agenda Meetups. And if you can't find one near you, start one yourself. It's easy. Noagendameetups.com.

1094
02:40:51,723 --> 02:40:52,787
Always a party.

1095
02:40:53,515 --> 02:40:54,515
Sometimes you

1096
02:40:55,211 --> 02:40:55,667
Go.

1097
02:40:57,515 --> 02:40:57,971
Thanks for watching!

1098
02:40:58,379 --> 02:41:00,595
Thanks for watching!

1099
02:41:01,387 --> 02:41:02,899
where you want me.

1100
02:41:03,851 --> 02:41:05,715
I'm so lame.

1101
02:41:07,019 --> 02:41:07,859
Everybody

1102
02:41:08,363 --> 02:41:10,835
the same.

1103
02:41:14,187 --> 02:41:21,011
to the highly anticipated John's tip of the... What? I don't see any ISOs.

1104
02:41:21,611 --> 02:41:35,699
I decided to let you have it. What, you're going to do some excuse like dog ate my homework? I was in the ER. Dog ate my homework. I was in the ER and no one attended to me? Please. Yeah. You know that I tried to get people to help you, right?

1105
02:41:37,291 --> 02:41:39,859
Did you know that? I'm sorry, like how?

1106
02:41:40,523 --> 02:41:47,795
Oh, I put out a tweet. Oh, I saw that tweet, yeah. How did it pay off? I got, well, I had...

1107
02:41:48,267 --> 02:41:52,699
There was a lot of doctors responded. People were calling nurses they knew.

1108
02:41:53,527 --> 02:42:04,191
So I don't know if it helps. It got you a nasty doctor. So maybe it helped. But then you got the kind nurse who wanted to immediately take take your complaints. So.

1109
02:42:04,759 --> 02:42:13,503
Did you get help? Do you feel like you got help? You got a monitor? You got an iPhone? Yeah, I'm good to go. Okay, here are my ISOs. You choose. These geysers gotta be sick of...

1110
02:42:14,071 --> 02:42:15,007
So's.

1111
02:42:16,023 --> 02:42:25,727
just cute. I don't think it's appropriate for an ISO. I like it. I like it too. How about you put some money toward us? Yeah, a little bit. A little condescending.

1112
02:42:26,359 --> 02:42:31,199
Nice, funny guys. Real sweet. Now you're talking. Thank you. Goodbye.

1113
02:42:32,247 --> 02:42:32,703
Boom.

1114
02:42:33,271 --> 02:42:36,671
You like that one? You like the thank you goodbye? Hold on a sec.

1115
02:42:37,015 --> 02:42:44,287
And then the last one is they were right about everything. OK, that's the one I knew. I knew I'd nailed it eventually.

1116
02:42:48,535 --> 02:42:52,299
Just the tip with Jason.

1117
02:42:53,319 --> 02:42:59,887
And sometimes, Adam. This is a crazy one. This comes from producer Zach.

1118
02:43:00,263 --> 02:43:13,359
He sends me this website, and it's like, holy mackerel. If you think you're handy or handyman, you need some sort of a wrench or maybe you need a certain kind of special.

1119
02:43:13,895 --> 02:43:14,607
Ice grip.

1120
02:43:15,047 --> 02:43:36,207
You need vice grips, real ones, and ones that say vice grips on them. And they work right, which is not everyone. I have vice grips. Or you need some tools for power, you need wires, or you need level controls, or temperature control devices, filters, filters of any sort. Check out this website.

1121
02:43:36,295 --> 02:43:42,287
This is the damnedest thing. This is everything known to man. Okay. The name of the website is.

1122
02:43:42,759 --> 02:43:44,847
Master.

1123
02:43:45,255 --> 02:43:50,799
I'm sorry, what? McMaster, I'm sorry, McMaster, M-C-M-A-S-T-E-R dot com.

1124
02:43:51,591 --> 02:43:52,499
Master.com.

1125
02:43:52,499 --> 02:43:53,559
Wow.

1126
02:43:55,247 --> 02:43:57,111
Keep scrolling. Wow.

1127
02:43:57,711 --> 02:44:00,215
Oh man, they got hard hats.

1128
02:44:03,279 --> 02:44:06,839
You can scroll for days. Oh, my goodness.

1129
02:44:07,503 --> 02:44:09,111
This is great.

1130
02:44:10,511 --> 02:44:11,383
thing.

1131
02:44:12,079 --> 02:44:16,855
It's like Home Depot on a website.

1132
02:44:17,263 --> 02:44:32,919
Only easy. On steroids. Hand tools. Let's see. Plumbing and janitorial. Do they have toilets? I need a toilet. I need a toilet. Toilets and urinals. They got toilets. Urinals. Wall-mounted urinals. Well, that's what you need. Yeah.

1133
02:44:33,455 --> 02:44:34,359
Yeah.

1134
02:44:34,767 --> 02:44:38,263
Yes, they have bidets. Do they have bidets? I want a bidet.

1135
02:44:38,799 --> 02:44:42,103
They got, wow, this is pretty good.

1136
02:44:42,543 --> 02:44:45,175
Oh, you can, oh, you can buy.

1137
02:44:47,279 --> 02:44:49,847
sorted by different bowl.

1138
02:44:51,759 --> 02:44:52,499
Yeah.

1139
02:44:52,847 --> 02:44:54,039
I've been thinking about a new toilet.

1140
02:44:55,087 --> 02:45:02,295
Well, you know, here's your why. I'm good. Why? What's wrong with the toilet? I don't like our toilet.

1141
02:45:03,023 --> 02:45:03,735
Let's ride it.

1142
02:45:04,111 --> 02:45:28,855
Well, it's too low and it's cheap. It feels cheap. I want it when I want people. Go to Costco has nice toilets for good prices. I want people to feel like, oh, this is a nice toilet. Well, then you want to get one of those Japanese things. No, that's naff. No, I don't want to get one of those. Before the guy can say hello, he gets washed. Sprays. No, I don't want it. I like the snowmobile ones.

1143
02:45:29,007 --> 02:45:39,511
They're really huge. I want it to be a throne. That's what I want for my guests. It's not for me. It's for my guests. McMaster.com. That is an interesting find.

1144
02:45:40,015 --> 02:45:50,743
I'd say I was very impressed. Yeah, I like that a lot. Well, that's just one of the many tips you get at tip of the day dot net.

1145
02:45:51,247 --> 02:45:52,399
Just the team.

1146
02:45:53,803 --> 02:45:58,899
And sometimes Adam. Created by Dana Burnetti.

1147
02:45:59,563 --> 02:46:02,547
And that concludes our broadcast day right on time.

1148
02:46:05,643 --> 02:46:11,635
John's going to do his metrics. Now, what is it called?

1149
02:46:12,363 --> 02:46:23,859
What do they have? Physical therapy. No. What is it when you do a car diagnostics? No. It's telemetry. There we go. Car diagnostics. Your telemetry. My telemetry.

1150
02:46:24,363 --> 02:46:26,387
You're telemetry. I'm going to send it to the home base.

1151
02:46:27,403 --> 02:46:29,139
Not a phone.

1152
02:46:31,083 --> 02:46:34,835
All right, coming up next on noagendastream.com. If you didn't get kicked out.

1163
02:47:57,359 --> 02:47:57,975
Sit tight.
