1
00:00:00,250 --> 00:00:00,950
Go Boomers!

2
00:00:01,090 --> 00:00:02,930
Adam Currie, John C.

3
00:00:03,070 --> 00:00:03,370
DeVora.

4
00:00:03,510 --> 00:00:05,410
It's Thursday, April 24th, 2025.

5
00:00:05,730 --> 00:00:07,410
This is your award-winning Gitmo Nation Media

6
00:00:07,410 --> 00:00:09,770
Assassination Episode 1758.

7
00:00:10,110 --> 00:00:11,790
This is No Agenda.

8
00:00:12,790 --> 00:00:16,130
Picking pokes and broadcasting live for over 17

9
00:00:16,130 --> 00:00:17,830
years from the heart of the Texas Hill

10
00:00:17,830 --> 00:00:20,230
Country here in FEMA Region Number 6.

11
00:00:20,570 --> 00:00:22,850
In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Currie.

12
00:00:23,010 --> 00:00:25,430
And from Northern Silicon Valley, where we should

13
00:00:25,430 --> 00:00:28,510
be rolling out the No Agenda meme coin.

14
00:00:28,510 --> 00:00:29,530
I'm John C.

15
00:00:29,610 --> 00:00:29,850
DeVora.

16
00:00:34,030 --> 00:00:36,670
I was at a wedding last night and

17
00:00:36,670 --> 00:00:38,530
people are asking me like, what do you

18
00:00:38,530 --> 00:00:40,130
think of Trump's cryptocurrency?

19
00:00:41,130 --> 00:00:42,910
I'm like, do you really want me to

20
00:00:42,910 --> 00:00:43,850
get into this with you?

21
00:00:44,830 --> 00:00:46,170
This meme coin?

22
00:00:47,250 --> 00:00:48,050
Oh, man.

23
00:00:48,250 --> 00:00:51,670
So I'm at this wedding.

24
00:00:51,850 --> 00:00:54,050
This is the former...

25
00:00:54,050 --> 00:00:55,610
This is the wedding you were at when

26
00:00:55,610 --> 00:00:57,790
Andrew tried to get a hold of you.

27
00:00:57,790 --> 00:01:01,250
Yes, this is the former Kerrville cop with

28
00:01:01,250 --> 00:01:02,690
anger management issues wedding.

29
00:01:03,510 --> 00:01:05,330
Oh, there's nothing like a cop with anger

30
00:01:05,330 --> 00:01:06,350
management issues.

31
00:01:06,570 --> 00:01:09,250
Well, especially since he's now the lieutenant for

32
00:01:09,250 --> 00:01:11,810
the Sheriff's Office of Gillespie County.

33
00:01:12,510 --> 00:01:12,850
Okay.

34
00:01:13,070 --> 00:01:13,850
Which is good.

35
00:01:13,930 --> 00:01:15,730
We like knowing our buddy Mike.

36
00:01:16,470 --> 00:01:17,610
Yeah, I would think so.

37
00:01:19,230 --> 00:01:21,310
Don't want to piss him off.

38
00:01:21,450 --> 00:01:23,150
So the whole, you know, there's...

39
00:01:23,770 --> 00:01:26,470
There must have been 10 sheriffs, deputies, all

40
00:01:26,470 --> 00:01:27,270
in uniform.

41
00:01:28,930 --> 00:01:30,890
Half of them look like the mustache guy

42
00:01:30,890 --> 00:01:32,570
from the village people for some reason.

43
00:01:32,730 --> 00:01:34,010
It's like, you know, you look kind of

44
00:01:34,010 --> 00:01:36,390
like that gay guy from the village people.

45
00:01:36,490 --> 00:01:37,290
Did you say that to him?

46
00:01:37,430 --> 00:01:38,330
Yes, of course.

47
00:01:39,830 --> 00:01:40,910
They think it's funny.

48
00:01:41,030 --> 00:01:42,130
They think it's all hilarious.

49
00:01:42,510 --> 00:01:43,150
No good for them.

50
00:01:43,190 --> 00:01:43,790
They're good guys.

51
00:01:44,310 --> 00:01:44,470
Yeah.

52
00:01:44,530 --> 00:01:45,910
So Andrew calls me.

53
00:01:45,990 --> 00:01:46,310
I'm like, no.

54
00:01:46,390 --> 00:01:47,570
So I text him, I said, no, I'm

55
00:01:47,570 --> 00:01:48,190
at a wedding.

56
00:01:48,550 --> 00:01:49,770
And then I just, I decided I'm going

57
00:01:49,770 --> 00:01:50,490
to ghost him.

58
00:01:54,310 --> 00:01:57,230
Because he's now using it as engagement farming.

59
00:01:57,230 --> 00:01:58,970
He's all over X.

60
00:01:59,050 --> 00:02:00,410
Like, is there a feud?

61
00:02:00,530 --> 00:02:01,450
What's going on?

62
00:02:01,490 --> 00:02:02,110
What's happening?

63
00:02:02,290 --> 00:02:03,410
Ooh, what could be happening?

64
00:02:03,530 --> 00:02:04,790
Oh, he hasn't texted me back.

65
00:02:05,070 --> 00:02:07,389
I'm glad we can provide some promotion for

66
00:02:07,389 --> 00:02:08,190
DH unplugged.

67
00:02:10,009 --> 00:02:11,610
I haven't had a chance to listen to

68
00:02:11,610 --> 00:02:11,950
the show.

69
00:02:12,010 --> 00:02:13,050
Did he bring it up on Tuesday?

70
00:02:13,910 --> 00:02:14,630
Uh, kinda.

71
00:02:14,950 --> 00:02:15,130
Yeah.

72
00:02:15,270 --> 00:02:16,010
Oh, did he?

73
00:02:16,150 --> 00:02:18,670
Because he did send me an email early

74
00:02:18,670 --> 00:02:19,030
in the week.

75
00:02:19,070 --> 00:02:19,750
He was befuddled.

76
00:02:20,030 --> 00:02:22,130
People are saying that we're fighting.

77
00:02:22,290 --> 00:02:23,110
Is everything okay?

78
00:02:23,230 --> 00:02:24,730
I presume it's an inside joke, right?

79
00:02:24,850 --> 00:02:25,690
Right, right, right.

80
00:02:25,770 --> 00:02:26,210
Come on, right?

81
00:02:26,850 --> 00:02:28,350
I'm like, I think so.

82
00:02:28,350 --> 00:02:28,930
I don't know.

83
00:02:28,990 --> 00:02:30,390
Maybe you should listen to our show.

84
00:02:30,850 --> 00:02:32,730
Well, until you listen to the show, you'll

85
00:02:32,730 --> 00:02:34,930
be funneled continually.

86
00:02:37,350 --> 00:02:39,450
Are we under martial law yet?

87
00:02:39,470 --> 00:02:40,910
Is the main question of the day.

88
00:02:43,010 --> 00:02:45,910
Oh, that was supposed to happen on Sunday.

89
00:02:47,130 --> 00:02:48,270
Yeah, I don't.

90
00:02:48,710 --> 00:02:50,190
Yeah, guess not.

91
00:02:50,990 --> 00:02:51,970
I guess it hasn't happened.

92
00:02:52,510 --> 00:02:55,510
And I haven't seen anybody posting about it.

93
00:02:55,590 --> 00:02:56,750
Why it hasn't happened.

94
00:02:56,750 --> 00:02:58,470
Because they have to have a new date.

95
00:03:00,510 --> 00:03:01,890
So there was...

96
00:03:01,890 --> 00:03:04,230
It's been put off to some other date.

97
00:03:05,270 --> 00:03:07,270
So I make a joke about this at

98
00:03:07,270 --> 00:03:08,790
the wedding yesterday.

99
00:03:10,570 --> 00:03:13,750
And Joe was there, Laura Logan's husband.

100
00:03:15,170 --> 00:03:16,130
And apparently...

101
00:03:16,130 --> 00:03:16,510
Was Laura there?

102
00:03:16,690 --> 00:03:17,230
No, no.

103
00:03:17,370 --> 00:03:17,850
Who knows?

104
00:03:17,910 --> 00:03:19,310
She's doing a speech in Atlanta.

105
00:03:19,490 --> 00:03:20,430
She's all over the place.

106
00:03:21,370 --> 00:03:23,410
And apparently he had already told a few

107
00:03:23,410 --> 00:03:26,350
people a week ago, martial law is coming.

108
00:03:27,790 --> 00:03:30,430
Was he a believer in this?

109
00:03:31,210 --> 00:03:32,270
I guess so.

110
00:03:32,350 --> 00:03:34,050
Because other people said, yeah, Joe, what happened

111
00:03:34,050 --> 00:03:34,390
to that?

112
00:03:34,630 --> 00:03:36,350
And I'm like, Joe, what?

113
00:03:36,510 --> 00:03:38,070
That's like a libtard thing.

114
00:03:38,550 --> 00:03:39,090
No, no, no.

115
00:03:39,350 --> 00:03:40,990
He just wouldn't do it on Easter.

116
00:03:41,150 --> 00:03:42,990
Like, come on, man.

117
00:03:44,350 --> 00:03:44,790
What?

118
00:03:45,110 --> 00:03:45,550
Yes.

119
00:03:46,330 --> 00:03:47,210
It's crazy.

120
00:03:48,530 --> 00:03:48,990
That's all right.

121
00:03:49,030 --> 00:03:50,290
Then I hit him right back with this.

122
00:03:50,470 --> 00:03:50,630
Okay.

123
00:03:50,750 --> 00:03:53,070
It all changed when JFK Jr. is our

124
00:03:53,070 --> 00:03:53,670
vice president.

125
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:56,960
It's...

126
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:57,560
I have a...

127
00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,320
I'm talking about screwball things.

128
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,560
I have a bet with my son.

129
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:03,980
Okay.

130
00:04:04,420 --> 00:04:06,540
I may have brought this up, but I

131
00:04:06,540 --> 00:04:07,280
don't think I have.

132
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:07,640
Okay.

133
00:04:07,820 --> 00:04:09,220
I'll remind you if you did.

134
00:04:10,340 --> 00:04:11,460
Yeah, I'm sure you will.

135
00:04:12,780 --> 00:04:15,260
He made a substantial bet.

136
00:04:15,839 --> 00:04:17,160
And I have to put this down.

137
00:04:17,180 --> 00:04:18,640
I have to get this in writing.

138
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,120
I have to send some email back and

139
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:21,260
forth because I do have one witness.

140
00:04:22,300 --> 00:04:24,260
And he's just adamant about it.

141
00:04:24,260 --> 00:04:26,020
Is one not enough?

142
00:04:26,220 --> 00:04:27,340
Do you need more witnesses?

143
00:04:28,060 --> 00:04:28,460
I...

144
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:29,400
Well...

145
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:29,920
Oh, no, wait.

146
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,540
I think you have brought this up.

147
00:04:31,660 --> 00:04:34,060
The JD Vance will become president and then

148
00:04:34,060 --> 00:04:35,200
Trump will be vice president.

149
00:04:35,300 --> 00:04:36,760
He'll quit and then he'll become president.

150
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:37,620
Exactly.

151
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:38,740
Yeah.

152
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,040
And he's adamant about it.

153
00:04:41,060 --> 00:04:41,620
You told me that.

154
00:04:41,700 --> 00:04:42,480
We're all witnesses.

155
00:04:42,620 --> 00:04:43,580
You have a million witnesses.

156
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:44,360
We've heard this.

157
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:45,260
Yeah, I know.

158
00:04:45,340 --> 00:04:46,420
But it has to be...

159
00:04:46,420 --> 00:04:47,020
Yeah, he's gonna...

160
00:04:47,020 --> 00:04:47,340
What?

161
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,460
And I can't refer to a podcast.

162
00:04:50,660 --> 00:04:52,780
I can't dig it up and make it...

163
00:04:52,780 --> 00:04:54,680
How dare you denigrate the show?

164
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:55,800
No, no, it's not that.

165
00:04:55,900 --> 00:04:57,120
It's that I have to keep track of

166
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,660
the date of this podcast, then refer to

167
00:04:59,660 --> 00:04:59,980
it.

168
00:04:59,980 --> 00:05:01,660
Oh, you can get it on Bing.

169
00:05:01,740 --> 00:05:03,340
As opposed to something in an email, which

170
00:05:03,340 --> 00:05:04,460
I can put aside.

171
00:05:04,740 --> 00:05:06,380
You'll be able to go to bingit.io

172
00:05:06,380 --> 00:05:08,220
and send a direct link to the audio.

173
00:05:08,620 --> 00:05:10,660
We have the best resources for this.

174
00:05:11,380 --> 00:05:12,860
But that's the kind of thing that's very

175
00:05:12,860 --> 00:05:13,560
similar to...

176
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,180
It reminds me of the idea that we're

177
00:05:16,180 --> 00:05:17,840
gonna have Marshall Loft or whatever.

178
00:05:18,020 --> 00:05:19,720
And there's no reason for any of this.

179
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:21,940
There's no reason to expect Trump to pull

180
00:05:21,940 --> 00:05:24,820
a stunt like that, which would irk everyone.

181
00:05:26,020 --> 00:05:27,640
There's no reason for him to pull a

182
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:28,840
stunt like Marshall Loft.

183
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,400
All of my screens here in the studio

184
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:32,960
have identical...

185
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:33,760
Breaking news!

186
00:05:34,340 --> 00:05:35,660
Trump on Ukraine war.

187
00:05:36,700 --> 00:05:37,500
We're getting close.

188
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:39,440
We're getting closer.

189
00:05:39,660 --> 00:05:40,500
It's almost there.

190
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:42,800
There's no closer.

191
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,300
I actually have some...

192
00:05:45,300 --> 00:05:47,620
In fact, I think Russia bombed Kiev again

193
00:05:47,620 --> 00:05:48,220
this morning.

194
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:49,360
Yeah, this is it.

195
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,200
The worst attacks on Kiev since the start

196
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:52,700
of the war.

197
00:05:53,140 --> 00:05:55,680
In an attack on the Ukrainian capital, Russia

198
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,280
launched 215 missiles and drones overnight, according to

199
00:05:59,280 --> 00:06:01,740
the Ukrainian Air Force, causing the collapse of

200
00:06:01,740 --> 00:06:03,160
numerous residential buildings.

201
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,140
Some residents, still in shock, were awakened by

202
00:06:06,140 --> 00:06:06,800
the explosions.

203
00:06:08,340 --> 00:06:10,440
I had time to get out when it

204
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:10,940
exploded.

205
00:06:11,340 --> 00:06:12,440
And then there was nothing.

206
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,520
The neighboring house was destroyed and everything in

207
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:16,960
our house just flew away.

208
00:06:17,140 --> 00:06:18,820
And I didn't see anything.

209
00:06:18,820 --> 00:06:19,680
I'm scared.

210
00:06:20,060 --> 00:06:22,300
Others had time to find refuge in bomb

211
00:06:22,300 --> 00:06:22,760
shelters.

212
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:24,980
We were sleeping when we heard the first

213
00:06:24,980 --> 00:06:25,480
explosion.

214
00:06:25,940 --> 00:06:27,060
It was very strong.

215
00:06:27,260 --> 00:06:29,440
The windows in our apartment were damaged.

216
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,160
Kitchen appliances flew off the countertop.

217
00:06:32,340 --> 00:06:33,560
But luckily, we were alive.

218
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,140
Following the attack, the Ukrainian government denounced Russian

219
00:06:37,140 --> 00:06:40,300
President Vladimir Putin, saying he only has the

220
00:06:40,300 --> 00:06:41,120
desire to kill.

221
00:06:41,340 --> 00:06:44,080
President Zelensky said that Russia must stop strikes

222
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:45,700
immediately and unconditionally.

223
00:06:45,700 --> 00:06:48,420
But after three years of fighting, some Ukrainians

224
00:06:48,420 --> 00:06:50,520
say they no longer believe that peace is

225
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:50,980
possible.

226
00:06:51,300 --> 00:06:53,180
I honestly don't know how this will all

227
00:06:53,180 --> 00:06:53,440
end.

228
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:54,600
It's very scary.

229
00:06:54,860 --> 00:06:55,940
I don't believe it.

230
00:06:56,060 --> 00:06:57,700
I only believe that if we can stop

231
00:06:57,700 --> 00:06:59,480
them on the battlefield, that's it.

232
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:01,480
Diplomacy doesn't work here.

233
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,540
You can see it from the news, from

234
00:07:03,540 --> 00:07:04,120
the dead.

235
00:07:04,940 --> 00:07:07,840
Attacks on Kiev, as well as Kharkiv, resumed

236
00:07:07,840 --> 00:07:09,520
following a brief Easter truce.

237
00:07:09,780 --> 00:07:12,040
This looked pretty bad, I have to say.

238
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:13,320
And I don't think there's been a bombing

239
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,380
in Kiev that has been this bad.

240
00:07:15,380 --> 00:07:17,380
They'll kind of work backwards in the timeline,

241
00:07:17,820 --> 00:07:20,620
because before what happened last night, we had

242
00:07:20,620 --> 00:07:21,000
this.

243
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,600
Tonight, President Trump lashing out at Ukraine's President

244
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,960
Vladimir Zelensky on social media.

245
00:07:27,460 --> 00:07:27,560
Right.

246
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,120
Is that not what we call hyperbole?

247
00:07:31,460 --> 00:07:32,160
Lashing out.

248
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,140
That used to be the pet phrase of

249
00:07:35,140 --> 00:07:35,860
Amy Goodman.

250
00:07:36,180 --> 00:07:40,460
Lashing Vladimir Zelensky on social media, writing, He

251
00:07:40,460 --> 00:07:42,660
can have peace or he can fight for

252
00:07:42,660 --> 00:07:45,840
another three years before losing the whole country.

253
00:07:46,300 --> 00:07:48,240
The man with no cards to play.

254
00:07:48,260 --> 00:07:49,720
Is this Martha Radnich?

255
00:07:49,940 --> 00:07:50,720
It sure is.

256
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:52,460
Radnich, Radnich.

257
00:07:52,740 --> 00:07:54,340
Is she still working?

258
00:07:54,460 --> 00:07:55,380
Radnich, Radnich.

259
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,860
Well, I don't know why I don't think

260
00:07:57,860 --> 00:07:58,620
her name is Radnich.

261
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,900
From now on, she is Martha Radnich.

262
00:08:01,060 --> 00:08:01,640
That's fine.

263
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:05,360
We have pet names for people in the

264
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:05,520
show.

265
00:08:05,620 --> 00:08:06,640
Yes, she's still working.

266
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,900
No cards to play should now finally get

267
00:08:09,900 --> 00:08:10,480
it done.

268
00:08:10,700 --> 00:08:10,860
Nice.

269
00:08:11,060 --> 00:08:12,060
I don't know if that was a quote

270
00:08:12,060 --> 00:08:13,280
or editorializing.

271
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,920
Trump angered by Zelensky's refusal to accept a

272
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,180
U.S.-proposed peace deal that would prohibit NATO

273
00:08:20,180 --> 00:08:24,020
membership for Ukraine and would include Ukraine giving

274
00:08:24,020 --> 00:08:27,060
up land that Russia has seized since its

275
00:08:27,060 --> 00:08:27,540
invasion.

276
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:28,000
There it is.

277
00:08:28,220 --> 00:08:29,900
In addition to giving up Crimea.

278
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,280
Zelensky saying, There's nothing to talk about.

279
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:35,740
It is our territory.

280
00:08:35,740 --> 00:08:38,400
The territory of the Ukrainian people.

281
00:08:39,039 --> 00:08:41,120
Vice President J.D. Vance threatened to end

282
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,960
the negotiations if Ukraine does not accept the

283
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,560
U.S. proposal that calls for Ukraine to

284
00:08:46,560 --> 00:08:47,900
give up land to Russia.

285
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,860
We've issued a very explicit proposal to both

286
00:08:50,860 --> 00:08:52,100
the Russians and the Ukrainians.

287
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,120
And it's time for them to either say

288
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,180
yes or for the United States to walk

289
00:08:56,180 --> 00:08:57,200
away from this process.

290
00:08:57,660 --> 00:09:00,240
And what's odd about this is just around

291
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,840
this time, we got this news about President

292
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:04,240
Putin.

293
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,860
Russian President Vladimir Putin has expressed for the

294
00:09:07,860 --> 00:09:10,760
first time in years a willingness to hold

295
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:12,440
direct talks with Ukraine.

296
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:16,140
This marks potential diplomatic movement as pressure mounts

297
00:09:16,140 --> 00:09:18,620
from the U.S. for both sides to

298
00:09:18,620 --> 00:09:20,180
reach a ceasefire deal.

299
00:09:20,680 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaking to Russian state media, Putin claimed Moscow

300
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:27,200
was open to discussing the possibility of halting

301
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,920
strikes on civilian infrastructure with Kiev.

302
00:09:30,180 --> 00:09:30,780
How'd that work out?

303
00:09:30,780 --> 00:09:34,300
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has also signaled readiness

304
00:09:34,300 --> 00:09:38,280
for dialogue, proposing a 30-day ceasefire to

305
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:39,720
end attacks on civilians.

306
00:09:40,220 --> 00:09:42,920
Though Russia has yet to accept the offer.

307
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,060
As talks intensify, the U.S. has warned

308
00:09:46,060 --> 00:09:48,740
that it could withdraw its support for peace

309
00:09:48,740 --> 00:09:51,340
efforts if there's no visible progress.

310
00:09:51,980 --> 00:09:55,040
With negotiations set to continue in London this

311
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,900
week, the coming days could determine whether renewed

312
00:09:57,900 --> 00:10:00,180
diplomacy finally leads to peace.

313
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,180
So it's interesting when you look at these

314
00:10:04,180 --> 00:10:05,020
four screens.

315
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,760
So I have Fox, MSNBC, CNN, and the

316
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:08,140
BBC.

317
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:12,280
The white balance, the color of the Oval

318
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,940
Office is so different in each one.

319
00:10:16,260 --> 00:10:17,100
That shouldn't be.

320
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:17,740
Oh, yeah.

321
00:10:17,860 --> 00:10:19,560
So Fox is very vibrant.

322
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,180
MSNBC actually looks a little out of focus.

323
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:25,940
CNN looks somewhat washed out.

324
00:10:26,580 --> 00:10:30,320
And the BBC, the gold behind the president

325
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,660
on the fireplace is just beaming at me.

326
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:34,000
It's interesting.

327
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:37,140
That's being done on purpose.

328
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,160
You got to think it.

329
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,120
Or no, people just don't care anymore.

330
00:10:42,260 --> 00:10:44,300
Maybe they just run AI over this stuff.

331
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,120
Well, white balance, schmike balance.

332
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:48,200
Let the computer do it.

333
00:10:48,340 --> 00:10:51,900
Well, the idea that they don't care, they're

334
00:10:51,900 --> 00:10:53,860
careless or they're sloppy or they don't, you

335
00:10:53,860 --> 00:10:55,400
know, that is possible.

336
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,480
But I would get the impression that they

337
00:10:58,480 --> 00:10:59,700
are purposeful.

338
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:00,860
Let's look at the headlines.

339
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,820
But then again, you know, it's, you know,

340
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:08,140
it's the falling off of quality of MSNBC

341
00:11:08,140 --> 00:11:11,440
and CNN over the years could be reflected

342
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:12,680
in a lot of different ways.

343
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,180
Now, it wouldn't surprise me.

344
00:11:14,180 --> 00:11:15,100
It wouldn't surprise me.

345
00:11:15,380 --> 00:11:19,280
I have the NTD version of the update

346
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:20,680
between Russia, Ukraine.

347
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:22,580
It's the Russia, Ukraine update.

348
00:11:22,580 --> 00:11:25,640
President also talked about Russia and Ukraine today.

349
00:11:25,860 --> 00:11:26,880
Tell us the latest on that.

350
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:27,320
Sure.

351
00:11:27,460 --> 00:11:29,440
So inside the Oval Office, President Trump now

352
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,300
said that he thinks Russia is ready to

353
00:11:32,300 --> 00:11:33,520
have a deal and that the U.S.

354
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:34,960
already had to deal with Russia.

355
00:11:35,100 --> 00:11:37,200
But it turns out that Ukraine is now

356
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,020
the more difficult one to negotiate with.

357
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:39,320
Watch.

358
00:11:39,660 --> 00:11:41,920
I think Russia is ready.

359
00:11:42,020 --> 00:11:43,400
And a lot of people said Russia wanted

360
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:44,560
to go for the whole thing.

361
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,760
And I think we have a deal with

362
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:50,080
Russia.

363
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,440
We have to get a deal with Zelensky.

364
00:11:52,580 --> 00:11:54,460
And I hope that Zelensky, I thought it

365
00:11:54,460 --> 00:11:56,320
might be easier to deal with Zelensky.

366
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:57,440
So far, it's been harder.

367
00:11:58,020 --> 00:11:58,760
But that's OK.

368
00:11:58,960 --> 00:11:59,740
It's all right.

369
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,140
But I think we have a deal with

370
00:12:03,140 --> 00:12:03,500
both.

371
00:12:03,620 --> 00:12:05,640
I hope they do it because I'm looking

372
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:06,060
to save.

373
00:12:06,140 --> 00:12:07,240
And, you know, we spend a lot of

374
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:07,440
money.

375
00:12:07,560 --> 00:12:10,720
But this is about a lot of humanity.

376
00:12:11,460 --> 00:12:13,860
Meanwhile, in the True Social Post this afternoon,

377
00:12:13,980 --> 00:12:17,160
President Trump criticized Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for

378
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,380
making it more difficult to settle the war

379
00:12:19,380 --> 00:12:23,840
by saying that Ukraine won't recognize Russia's claim

380
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,220
of Crimea, which happened back in 2014.

381
00:12:26,780 --> 00:12:29,560
Meanwhile, Zelensky responded later by pointing to a

382
00:12:29,560 --> 00:12:33,620
2018 statement during the first Trump term, saying

383
00:12:33,620 --> 00:12:36,180
that the U.S. will never recognize Russian

384
00:12:36,180 --> 00:12:38,160
sovereignty over Crimea.

385
00:12:38,620 --> 00:12:41,080
Meanwhile, Vice President J.D. Vance today is

386
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,220
saying that if Russia and Ukraine don't strike

387
00:12:44,220 --> 00:12:46,160
a deal, the U.S. would well just

388
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:46,880
walk away.

389
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,120
And meanwhile, the U.S. is focused on

390
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,340
talking with Russia this week with a Trump

391
00:12:51,340 --> 00:12:54,620
special envoy, Steve Wyckoff, in Russia this week

392
00:12:54,620 --> 00:12:57,000
to talk to Russian President Vladimir Putin for

393
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:57,680
the fourth time.

394
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,080
You know, the problem with all of this,

395
00:13:01,140 --> 00:13:05,980
let's say we get a truce, end of

396
00:13:05,980 --> 00:13:06,420
the war.

397
00:13:08,560 --> 00:13:12,760
There are so many weapons that have now

398
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,840
been funneled from Ukraine into Europe.

399
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,420
I mean, it's undeniable.

400
00:13:19,300 --> 00:13:20,420
And we're talking.

401
00:13:22,100 --> 00:13:25,700
Assault rifles, grenade launchers, anti-tank weapons.

402
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:27,220
What would it be going to Europe and

403
00:13:27,220 --> 00:13:27,880
not Africa?

404
00:13:29,990 --> 00:13:32,510
Well, I would say they'd be funneled through

405
00:13:32,510 --> 00:13:32,930
Europe.

406
00:13:33,050 --> 00:13:35,150
But think about the people who are in

407
00:13:35,150 --> 00:13:37,050
Europe, the people who have been let in.

408
00:13:38,350 --> 00:13:41,250
Oh, you think there could be a fifth

409
00:13:41,250 --> 00:13:41,750
column?

410
00:13:41,990 --> 00:13:42,250
Yeah.

411
00:13:42,970 --> 00:13:44,670
Well, well, fifth column.

412
00:13:44,810 --> 00:13:48,210
I mean, just nut jobs, nut jobs throughout

413
00:13:48,210 --> 00:13:48,670
Europe.

414
00:13:48,830 --> 00:13:50,590
We kind of saw this after.

415
00:13:52,630 --> 00:13:53,790
What was it?

416
00:13:56,440 --> 00:14:00,100
What was the Yugoslav Wars of the 90s?

417
00:14:00,700 --> 00:14:02,480
Lots of weapons throughout Europe.

418
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:04,680
And, you know, we had gangs, gangs using

419
00:14:04,680 --> 00:14:06,380
them, terrorist attacks.

420
00:14:06,940 --> 00:14:09,040
And now we've got all kinds of crazy

421
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:10,060
people in Europe.

422
00:14:11,700 --> 00:14:14,080
I mean, the war could be going to

423
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:14,820
the streets.

424
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:20,380
I think Europe may not be realizing what

425
00:14:20,380 --> 00:14:24,350
could possibly happen if this ends.

426
00:14:24,350 --> 00:14:26,410
Well, that's kind of a grim view of

427
00:14:26,410 --> 00:14:26,730
things.

428
00:14:26,830 --> 00:14:28,390
Well, I have a kid there, you know,

429
00:14:28,410 --> 00:14:29,530
so I think about these things.

430
00:14:29,650 --> 00:14:30,970
Yeah, yeah, it is grim.

431
00:14:31,350 --> 00:14:34,930
But, you know, weapons have a weird way

432
00:14:34,930 --> 00:14:36,650
of going the other direction.

433
00:14:37,330 --> 00:14:38,570
It's not that hard.

434
00:14:40,350 --> 00:14:41,630
So I don't know.

435
00:14:42,190 --> 00:14:42,750
I don't know.

436
00:14:43,350 --> 00:14:43,830
We'll see.

437
00:14:44,150 --> 00:14:46,210
I mean, demilitarized zone is what it would

438
00:14:46,210 --> 00:14:46,930
have to be.

439
00:14:47,110 --> 00:14:50,210
You keep Crimea, you get a DMZ, and

440
00:14:50,210 --> 00:14:51,030
it's the end of it.

441
00:14:52,070 --> 00:14:53,770
Yeah, well, they can't seem to get this

442
00:14:53,770 --> 00:14:54,270
to happen.

443
00:14:54,490 --> 00:14:55,830
Well, because they like the war.

444
00:14:55,970 --> 00:14:58,110
The European leadership likes it.

445
00:14:58,810 --> 00:14:59,910
They want, they're all in.

446
00:14:59,990 --> 00:15:02,350
They can't turn back their financing and all

447
00:15:02,350 --> 00:15:02,590
these.

448
00:15:02,630 --> 00:15:04,690
They have, they have probably, there has to

449
00:15:04,690 --> 00:15:06,870
be something behind Zelensky's reluctance.

450
00:15:08,510 --> 00:15:10,010
Besides, it's just pigheadedness.

451
00:15:10,170 --> 00:15:11,670
It's got to be the Europeans telling him,

452
00:15:11,810 --> 00:15:13,650
don't worry about it, we'll back you up.

453
00:15:13,690 --> 00:15:14,770
Yeah, we'll put you in the EU.

454
00:15:15,030 --> 00:15:16,090
You'll become a part of Europe.

455
00:15:16,250 --> 00:15:17,590
We promise, pinky swear.

456
00:15:17,710 --> 00:15:19,410
Come on, come on, just keep going, keep

457
00:15:19,410 --> 00:15:20,210
going, don't stop.

458
00:15:20,270 --> 00:15:20,870
Here's your script.

459
00:15:21,390 --> 00:15:23,670
Yeah, I would, I would think so.

460
00:15:24,110 --> 00:15:24,970
I would think so.

461
00:15:28,150 --> 00:15:30,310
Anyway, happy news, everybody.

462
00:15:30,710 --> 00:15:32,090
Happy, happy days, good times.

463
00:15:32,150 --> 00:15:33,090
It's all fantastic.

464
00:15:36,540 --> 00:15:38,460
But there's, I got a couple of clips

465
00:15:38,460 --> 00:15:39,800
on Elon Musk quitting.

466
00:15:40,340 --> 00:15:43,600
Now, is it quitting or is he going

467
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:45,000
to reduce his involvement?

468
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,780
I think he's not quitting or reducing.

469
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:50,860
I think he's just saying all this.

470
00:15:52,060 --> 00:15:53,920
You don't even think it's true at all.

471
00:15:54,020 --> 00:15:55,660
He said there's no pullback.

472
00:15:57,540 --> 00:15:59,560
He's got his team in place.

473
00:15:59,820 --> 00:16:01,880
He likes to be in the...

474
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:02,420
In the know.

475
00:16:03,300 --> 00:16:06,120
Well, not that, but within the power structure.

476
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,240
He should take a sabbatical or say he's

477
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,200
taking time to focus on his multiple families.

478
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,040
He should, you're right.

479
00:16:14,100 --> 00:16:15,560
I think he's trying to do that, but

480
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:16,960
he's doing it in a funny way.

481
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,120
I've got some clips from NPR, which will

482
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:21,700
have a slant to him.

483
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:23,380
And so this is Musk out.

484
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:24,500
Okay.

485
00:16:25,220 --> 00:16:27,560
Elon Musk says he'll pull back from his

486
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,680
work in the Trump administration to focus on

487
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,460
running his electric car business, Tesla.

488
00:16:31,620 --> 00:16:33,380
For the last few months, Musk has had

489
00:16:33,380 --> 00:16:35,940
massive access and power within the White House.

490
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:39,340
NPR's Danielle Kurtzleben reports on the relationship that

491
00:16:39,340 --> 00:16:42,580
was mutually beneficial until things got complicated.

492
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,640
On election night, Donald Trump gave special attention

493
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:47,440
to one of his biggest supporters.

494
00:16:48,060 --> 00:16:50,220
Let me tell you, we have a new

495
00:16:50,220 --> 00:16:50,780
star.

496
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:52,920
A star is born, Elon.

497
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,540
Their political courtship was only a few months

498
00:16:55,540 --> 00:16:55,840
old.

499
00:16:56,340 --> 00:16:59,100
Musk endorsed Trump shortly after the July assassination

500
00:16:59,100 --> 00:17:00,560
attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania.

501
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,880
Musk later explained his attraction at another Trump

502
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,220
rally in Butler in October.

503
00:17:05,220 --> 00:17:07,300
We had one president who couldn't climb a

504
00:17:07,300 --> 00:17:11,720
flight of stairs and another who was fist

505
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,280
pumping after getting shot.

506
00:17:13,819 --> 00:17:16,640
Fight, fight, fight.

507
00:17:17,420 --> 00:17:19,319
Blood coming down the face.

508
00:17:19,740 --> 00:17:21,300
Musk would go on to spend a quarter

509
00:17:21,300 --> 00:17:23,800
of a billion dollars supporting Trump and other

510
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:25,880
Republicans in the 2024 election.

511
00:17:26,540 --> 00:17:28,460
By the time Musk took the stage at

512
00:17:28,460 --> 00:17:31,460
Trump's October Madison Square Garden rally, Trump had

513
00:17:31,460 --> 00:17:33,560
already said Musk would lead a project they

514
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,700
called the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE.

515
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,640
Howard Lutnick, who is now Commerce Secretary, introduced

516
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:40,120
Musk.

517
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:43,040
How much do you think we can rip

518
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:47,720
out of this wasted $6.5 trillion Harris

519
00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:48,660
-Biden budget?

520
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:50,900
Well, I think we can do at least

521
00:17:50,900 --> 00:17:51,400
$2 trillion.

522
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:52,280
Yeah!

523
00:17:53,060 --> 00:17:55,540
Musk brought a chaotic, chaotic, chaotic energy to

524
00:17:55,540 --> 00:17:56,760
his new political role.

525
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,720
He grabbed headlines when he twice made a

526
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,140
straight-armed gesture that resembled a Nazi salute

527
00:18:02,140 --> 00:18:03,300
at Trump's inauguration.

528
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:05,860
Musk denied that, then joked about it on

529
00:18:05,860 --> 00:18:06,620
social media.

530
00:18:07,380 --> 00:18:09,860
Once Trump took office, Musk was everywhere.

531
00:18:10,220 --> 00:18:13,420
I keep getting notes from the EU, from

532
00:18:13,420 --> 00:18:17,300
the European countries, mainly the Netherlands, who correct

533
00:18:17,300 --> 00:18:18,920
me on Tesla and say, no, no, no,

534
00:18:18,940 --> 00:18:20,360
no, no, you're wrong.

535
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:25,680
The reason some people are not buying Teslas

536
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:30,240
or renouncing their ownership is because of the

537
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,720
Nazi salute and his support of AFD.

538
00:18:34,340 --> 00:18:36,340
They truly think he's a Nazi.

539
00:18:37,360 --> 00:18:39,340
Yes, I believe this to be true.

540
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,280
I've noticed this following some of the foreign

541
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:43,040
news coverage.

542
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,380
There is this strong belief that he's, and

543
00:18:46,380 --> 00:18:48,420
you see it even on late night comedy

544
00:18:48,420 --> 00:18:52,440
shows, he's a Nazi, period.

545
00:18:52,740 --> 00:18:54,520
It's not even an issue.

546
00:18:54,660 --> 00:18:55,360
It's not even a question.

547
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:55,820
It's obvious.

548
00:18:56,180 --> 00:18:57,300
Yeah, he did this and that's what you

549
00:18:57,300 --> 00:18:58,160
do as a, I mean.

550
00:18:58,860 --> 00:18:59,740
That's what Nazis do.

551
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:05,890
It's like, it's delusional.

552
00:19:06,790 --> 00:19:07,830
Do you think?

553
00:19:07,950 --> 00:19:10,830
It's truly, but it's concerning.

554
00:19:11,530 --> 00:19:14,190
It's concerning that people, you know, that the

555
00:19:14,190 --> 00:19:18,450
machine is so strong that people actually believe

556
00:19:18,450 --> 00:19:20,350
this, whether they've even seen it or not,

557
00:19:20,350 --> 00:19:22,670
or they've maybe seen a picture somewhere.

558
00:19:23,090 --> 00:19:24,270
They hear people talking about it.

559
00:19:24,410 --> 00:19:26,450
You have this shot of him doing his

560
00:19:26,450 --> 00:19:26,810
salute.

561
00:19:27,650 --> 00:19:30,050
I mean, Waltz did the exact same salute.

562
00:19:30,050 --> 00:19:32,550
No, I mean, I know, we know that.

563
00:19:32,610 --> 00:19:34,830
Everyone who's listening to the show knows that.

564
00:19:36,150 --> 00:19:37,670
But that doesn't matter.

565
00:19:37,850 --> 00:19:39,910
The fact that you can still launch that

566
00:19:39,910 --> 00:19:45,630
into the media, into the universe, really, into

567
00:19:45,630 --> 00:19:46,790
the ether, let's put it that way.

568
00:19:46,930 --> 00:19:48,730
You can launch it into the ether and

569
00:19:48,730 --> 00:19:49,790
people just go, oh yeah.

570
00:19:49,790 --> 00:19:50,930
And make it stick.

571
00:19:51,190 --> 00:19:52,330
And it sticks, yeah.

572
00:19:53,070 --> 00:19:55,390
I mean, we all should be very worried

573
00:19:55,390 --> 00:19:56,130
about that.

574
00:19:56,470 --> 00:19:59,150
That is, yeah, it's a phenom for sure.

575
00:19:59,670 --> 00:20:00,990
Yeah, it's amazing.

576
00:20:01,250 --> 00:20:03,030
And that's why we have to, it has

577
00:20:03,030 --> 00:20:03,550
to be fought.

578
00:20:03,970 --> 00:20:06,310
But it's a hopeless battle.

579
00:20:08,470 --> 00:20:10,330
That's why you listen to the Noah Jenner

580
00:20:10,330 --> 00:20:11,810
show, because it makes you smarter.

581
00:20:12,590 --> 00:20:15,110
It also makes you more, it makes you

582
00:20:15,110 --> 00:20:16,850
more attractive to the opposite sex.

583
00:20:16,890 --> 00:20:18,010
And the hit of every party.

584
00:20:18,510 --> 00:20:19,130
It does.

585
00:20:19,790 --> 00:20:20,670
Thank you, Daryl.

586
00:20:21,730 --> 00:20:23,470
So they continue with this.

587
00:20:24,030 --> 00:20:26,150
This is more, and as you listen to

588
00:20:26,150 --> 00:20:29,410
this, this is kind of like an eulogy.

589
00:20:30,550 --> 00:20:33,710
They talk about the entire Musk story.

590
00:20:33,890 --> 00:20:34,850
It's more like a movie.

591
00:20:35,130 --> 00:20:36,830
Oh, are they sad he's going?

592
00:20:36,990 --> 00:20:37,770
Is that what's happening?

593
00:20:37,970 --> 00:20:38,830
They're like, oh, well.

594
00:20:38,930 --> 00:20:40,670
I can't say that's the case.

595
00:20:40,750 --> 00:20:42,510
It's just like they're wrapping it.

596
00:20:42,650 --> 00:20:43,510
It's like a wrap.

597
00:20:43,730 --> 00:20:43,950
Maybe.

598
00:20:44,230 --> 00:20:45,030
Musk wrap.

599
00:20:46,390 --> 00:20:48,010
Maybe they, Musk wrap.

600
00:20:48,130 --> 00:20:48,670
I like that.

601
00:20:48,670 --> 00:20:50,910
Maybe it's because they had all the packages

602
00:20:50,910 --> 00:20:53,190
and the scripts written when they told everybody

603
00:20:53,190 --> 00:20:56,010
that they were going to break up months

604
00:20:56,010 --> 00:20:56,370
ago.

605
00:20:57,010 --> 00:20:58,110
And they're just like, oh, we still got

606
00:20:58,110 --> 00:20:59,030
this stuff on the shelf.

607
00:20:59,090 --> 00:21:00,110
Should we use it now, boss?

608
00:21:01,850 --> 00:21:03,030
That's always possible.

609
00:21:03,130 --> 00:21:05,830
I don't think NPR is that into having

610
00:21:05,830 --> 00:21:08,670
these, because that's TV stuff, because you have,

611
00:21:08,770 --> 00:21:11,230
it takes more work, but it's possible.

612
00:21:11,370 --> 00:21:11,830
Here we go.

613
00:21:12,030 --> 00:21:14,070
Riding on Air Force One and taking questions

614
00:21:14,070 --> 00:21:15,690
with the president in the Oval Office.

615
00:21:15,690 --> 00:21:18,030
Once with his four-year-old son in

616
00:21:18,030 --> 00:21:18,350
tow.

617
00:21:19,190 --> 00:21:21,990
Trump was generous with Musk, constantly praising him

618
00:21:21,990 --> 00:21:24,030
and letting him speak at length, even at

619
00:21:24,030 --> 00:21:24,770
cabinet meetings.

620
00:21:25,410 --> 00:21:27,850
At the first one, Trump jokingly chided Musk

621
00:21:27,850 --> 00:21:28,590
at one point.

622
00:21:32,110 --> 00:21:34,990
At Doge, Musk had almost unrestricted ability to

623
00:21:34,990 --> 00:21:37,130
look at the details of agencies that oversaw

624
00:21:37,130 --> 00:21:39,730
his businesses, companies that do a lot of

625
00:21:39,730 --> 00:21:40,950
work for the federal government.

626
00:21:40,950 --> 00:21:43,990
He gleefully set to work reshaping the bureaucracy

627
00:21:43,990 --> 00:21:47,070
he railed against as a businessman, even brandishing

628
00:21:47,070 --> 00:21:49,590
a chainsaw on stage at a conservative conference

629
00:21:49,590 --> 00:21:50,490
earlier this year.

630
00:21:53,970 --> 00:21:56,770
A little bit out of context, but okay.

631
00:21:58,290 --> 00:22:01,870
Under Musk, Doge has effectively dismantled some agencies

632
00:22:01,870 --> 00:22:02,630
and left others.

633
00:22:03,170 --> 00:22:06,050
He must have had the MMR jab as

634
00:22:06,050 --> 00:22:06,390
a kid.

635
00:22:06,470 --> 00:22:07,550
There's no doubt about it.

636
00:22:07,550 --> 00:22:10,230
Musk is so on the spectrum, it's not

637
00:22:10,230 --> 00:22:11,010
funny anymore.

638
00:22:12,470 --> 00:22:16,050
Under Musk, Doge has effectively dismantled some agencies

639
00:22:16,050 --> 00:22:18,990
and left others reeling after slashing tens of

640
00:22:18,990 --> 00:22:20,030
thousands of jobs.

641
00:22:20,610 --> 00:22:22,490
But big savings have been hard to find.

642
00:22:23,070 --> 00:22:24,970
On the campaign trail, Musk had said he

643
00:22:24,970 --> 00:22:26,310
was shooting for $2 trillion.

644
00:22:26,970 --> 00:22:29,210
But by a cabinet meeting earlier this month,

645
00:22:29,310 --> 00:22:30,570
the goal was much smaller.

646
00:22:30,910 --> 00:22:34,470
I'm excited to announce that we anticipate savings

647
00:22:34,470 --> 00:22:37,150
in FY26 from reduction of waste and fraud

648
00:22:37,150 --> 00:22:38,550
by $150 billion.

649
00:22:39,110 --> 00:22:41,830
Courts have halted many of Doge's actions, including

650
00:22:41,830 --> 00:22:44,090
attempts to obtain access to sensitive data.

651
00:22:44,650 --> 00:22:46,630
By spring, Trump was saying that cabinet members

652
00:22:46,630 --> 00:22:48,270
would be taking more of the lead in

653
00:22:48,270 --> 00:22:49,970
making decisions about their agencies.

654
00:22:50,290 --> 00:22:53,090
Hundreds of billions of dollars of waste and

655
00:22:53,090 --> 00:22:56,090
fraud and abuse has been found, already found.

656
00:22:56,670 --> 00:22:59,150
And that doesn't mean they don't have a

657
00:22:59,150 --> 00:23:00,730
little bit of an argument here and there

658
00:23:00,730 --> 00:23:03,530
about something or maybe personnel arguments.

659
00:23:03,530 --> 00:23:05,470
There were also signs that Musk was becoming

660
00:23:05,470 --> 00:23:06,550
a political liability.

661
00:23:07,310 --> 00:23:10,030
He spent and campaigned heavily for the conservative

662
00:23:10,030 --> 00:23:12,390
in a Wisconsin Supreme Court election in April,

663
00:23:12,630 --> 00:23:13,930
who then lost.

664
00:23:14,490 --> 00:23:17,690
You know, the conservative television and radio media,

665
00:23:17,810 --> 00:23:19,690
they don't really cop to the fact that

666
00:23:19,690 --> 00:23:22,990
it's $150 billion, significantly less than what was

667
00:23:22,990 --> 00:23:23,470
promised.

668
00:23:24,770 --> 00:23:26,890
Well, there's an assumption that it's going to

669
00:23:26,890 --> 00:23:28,590
continue and grow.

670
00:23:29,050 --> 00:23:31,090
$150 billion isn't chicken feed.

671
00:23:31,690 --> 00:23:33,190
No, this is what we gave to Ukraine.

672
00:23:33,190 --> 00:23:34,010
We guess.

673
00:23:34,150 --> 00:23:34,950
We don't even know that.

674
00:23:35,030 --> 00:23:35,730
We don't know anything.

675
00:23:35,850 --> 00:23:37,190
We know anything about the numbers.

676
00:23:37,330 --> 00:23:38,170
No, we don't know anything.

677
00:23:38,170 --> 00:23:39,590
It's just, we know nothing.

678
00:23:39,830 --> 00:23:42,470
It's just numbers that people throw out there.

679
00:23:42,530 --> 00:23:43,090
Who knows?

680
00:23:43,910 --> 00:23:44,450
Who knows?

681
00:23:45,310 --> 00:23:46,230
But, you know.

682
00:23:47,130 --> 00:23:50,130
Well, you left $80 billion plus in gear

683
00:23:50,130 --> 00:23:52,930
in Afghanistan that could have been retrieved.

684
00:23:53,650 --> 00:23:56,210
That's $80 billion, just, well, there you go.

685
00:23:56,950 --> 00:23:59,490
But you see, I'm not looking at the

686
00:23:59,490 --> 00:24:00,210
actual value.

687
00:24:00,290 --> 00:24:01,330
It's the marketing numbers.

688
00:24:01,410 --> 00:24:02,190
The marketing numbers.

689
00:24:02,190 --> 00:24:04,190
A billion dollars is nothing these days.

690
00:24:04,470 --> 00:24:06,310
We didn't even know what came after a

691
00:24:06,310 --> 00:24:07,270
million when I was a kid.

692
00:24:07,790 --> 00:24:08,830
What comes after a million?

693
00:24:09,430 --> 00:24:10,110
I don't know.

694
00:24:11,650 --> 00:24:12,630
You know, we had no idea.

695
00:24:12,910 --> 00:24:17,210
With all of our devaluation of currency through

696
00:24:17,210 --> 00:24:20,370
printing, now the billionaire is the new millionaire.

697
00:24:21,510 --> 00:24:22,810
And we don't even think about what that

698
00:24:22,810 --> 00:24:23,590
means anymore.

699
00:24:24,430 --> 00:24:25,570
If you went on the street and said,

700
00:24:25,770 --> 00:24:27,210
how many millions is a billion?

701
00:24:27,310 --> 00:24:28,310
I don't think people even know.

702
00:24:30,050 --> 00:24:30,810
Well, they know.

703
00:24:31,410 --> 00:24:33,750
So they've come up with 5% of

704
00:24:33,750 --> 00:24:35,710
their proposed savings.

705
00:24:36,290 --> 00:24:37,330
That's not impressive.

706
00:24:38,130 --> 00:24:39,630
It's a lot of money, but it's not

707
00:24:39,630 --> 00:24:40,010
impressive.

708
00:24:40,090 --> 00:24:41,630
And they're not saying more to come.

709
00:24:43,630 --> 00:24:45,610
So marketing-wise, I think it's kind of

710
00:24:45,610 --> 00:24:46,010
a flop.

711
00:24:46,630 --> 00:24:47,810
They are saying more to come.

712
00:24:48,050 --> 00:24:49,990
It's that these reports aren't saying more to

713
00:24:49,990 --> 00:24:50,130
come.

714
00:24:52,230 --> 00:24:54,390
They're also saying he's not Hitler, but the

715
00:24:54,390 --> 00:24:55,410
reports say he is.

716
00:24:55,470 --> 00:24:57,410
So I'm just looking at perception of the

717
00:24:57,410 --> 00:24:57,690
media.

718
00:24:59,990 --> 00:25:01,370
Well, let's wrap it with the third clip.

719
00:25:01,370 --> 00:25:04,970
Meanwhile, widespread Tesla takedown protests were happening at

720
00:25:04,970 --> 00:25:06,230
dealerships nationwide.

721
00:25:09,090 --> 00:25:12,650
Musk openly disagreed with Trump's tariff policy, at

722
00:25:12,650 --> 00:25:15,610
one point calling trade advisor Peter Navarro dumber

723
00:25:15,610 --> 00:25:16,870
than a sack of bricks.

724
00:25:17,750 --> 00:25:19,710
Musk's job at Doge was always supposed to

725
00:25:19,710 --> 00:25:20,830
be a temporary assignment.

726
00:25:21,510 --> 00:25:24,050
Recently, Trump has been vague about Musk's future,

727
00:25:24,410 --> 00:25:26,150
but complimentary as always.

728
00:25:26,490 --> 00:25:28,770
Well, I think he's amazing, but I also

729
00:25:28,770 --> 00:25:30,570
think he's got a big company to run.

730
00:25:30,570 --> 00:25:31,770
And so at some point, he's going to

731
00:25:31,770 --> 00:25:32,430
be going back.

732
00:25:32,550 --> 00:25:33,510
He wants to.

733
00:25:33,850 --> 00:25:34,670
Would you want to keep him around?

734
00:25:35,430 --> 00:25:36,790
Oh, I'd keep him as long as I

735
00:25:36,790 --> 00:25:37,350
could keep him.

736
00:25:37,370 --> 00:25:38,550
He's a very talented guy.

737
00:25:39,010 --> 00:25:42,070
This week, Tesla reported dismal earnings, and Musk

738
00:25:42,070 --> 00:25:43,950
announced to shareholders that he would be paring

739
00:25:43,950 --> 00:25:45,450
back his role at Doge.

740
00:25:46,070 --> 00:25:48,110
The White House has not responded to NPR's

741
00:25:48,110 --> 00:25:50,570
questions about how much Musk will be scaling

742
00:25:50,570 --> 00:25:51,010
back.

743
00:25:51,530 --> 00:25:54,390
I do have, I think, a Franz Van

744
00:25:54,390 --> 00:25:57,910
Contra clip that includes some of the quarterly

745
00:25:57,910 --> 00:26:00,530
call.

746
00:26:01,250 --> 00:26:04,210
That's the one where everybody typically calls up

747
00:26:04,210 --> 00:26:06,190
and says, great queue, guys, really good.

748
00:26:07,090 --> 00:26:08,650
Not so in this case.

749
00:26:08,750 --> 00:26:10,490
It hasn't been a great year for Tesla,

750
00:26:10,810 --> 00:26:13,610
the US automaker headed by billionaire Elon Musk.

751
00:26:13,730 --> 00:26:16,950
For months, protesters have been vandalizing Tesla cars

752
00:26:16,950 --> 00:26:20,670
and showrooms, upset at Musk spearheading mass layoffs

753
00:26:20,670 --> 00:26:22,270
at major government agencies.

754
00:26:22,270 --> 00:26:25,330
Now, if we were running France 24 and

755
00:26:25,330 --> 00:26:27,470
this guy auditioned, would you say, yeah, that's

756
00:26:27,470 --> 00:26:28,850
a go for on-air voice?

757
00:26:30,270 --> 00:26:30,930
Play it again.

758
00:26:31,210 --> 00:26:33,350
Through his work at Doge, it's been so

759
00:26:33,350 --> 00:26:36,070
bad that President Donald Trump has threatened to

760
00:26:36,070 --> 00:26:38,210
imprison the protesters in El Salvador.

761
00:26:38,570 --> 00:26:39,910
I'd be like, no, pass.

762
00:26:40,250 --> 00:26:42,170
I think it'd be more for some gay

763
00:26:42,170 --> 00:26:42,490
channel.

764
00:26:43,270 --> 00:26:46,190
Deliveries of Tesla's aging lineup of cars have

765
00:26:46,190 --> 00:26:49,470
nosedived, and Tesla's profits have been hollowed out.

766
00:26:49,470 --> 00:26:53,030
Tesla's net income has fallen 71% from

767
00:26:53,030 --> 00:26:54,570
the same time last year.

768
00:26:54,810 --> 00:26:57,230
Investors have sold off the company's stock at

769
00:26:57,230 --> 00:26:59,670
a rapid pace, causing its price to drop

770
00:26:59,670 --> 00:27:01,430
by about half since December.

771
00:27:01,730 --> 00:27:04,470
Nonetheless, on an earnings phone call with analysts

772
00:27:04,470 --> 00:27:06,990
on Tuesday, Musk defended his work with the

773
00:27:06,990 --> 00:27:07,870
Trump administration.

774
00:27:08,250 --> 00:27:10,390
There's been some blowback for the time that

775
00:27:10,390 --> 00:27:12,430
I've been spending in government with the Department

776
00:27:12,430 --> 00:27:13,750
of Government Efficiency or Doge.

777
00:27:14,030 --> 00:27:15,690
I believe the right thing to do is

778
00:27:15,690 --> 00:27:17,590
to just fight the way forward and get

779
00:27:17,590 --> 00:27:18,710
the country back on the right track.

780
00:27:18,710 --> 00:27:21,810
And working together with President Trump and his

781
00:27:21,810 --> 00:27:24,610
administration, because if the ship of America goes

782
00:27:24,610 --> 00:27:26,730
down, we all go down with it, including

783
00:27:26,730 --> 00:27:27,910
Tesla and everyone else.

784
00:27:28,110 --> 00:27:30,910
Yielding to investors' worries, Musk said that next

785
00:27:30,910 --> 00:27:33,350
month he will begin allocating more time to

786
00:27:33,350 --> 00:27:35,910
Tesla and cut back his time at Doge.

787
00:27:36,170 --> 00:27:39,010
He returns as the company faces difficulties from

788
00:27:39,010 --> 00:27:40,350
Trump-imposed tariffs.

789
00:27:40,630 --> 00:27:43,730
Tesla paused imports of some China-sourced components

790
00:27:43,730 --> 00:27:46,030
after U.S. tariffs on the Asian country

791
00:27:46,030 --> 00:27:47,910
rose to 145%.

792
00:27:47,910 --> 00:27:51,130
China has responded with tariffs of its own,

793
00:27:51,350 --> 00:27:54,050
leading Tesla to suspend some orders in the

794
00:27:54,050 --> 00:27:54,430
country.

795
00:27:55,730 --> 00:27:59,450
I was watching a report on BYD, the

796
00:27:59,450 --> 00:28:00,730
Shanghai auto show.

797
00:28:00,870 --> 00:28:02,290
They launched the new models.

798
00:28:02,650 --> 00:28:03,550
Oh, man.

799
00:28:04,250 --> 00:28:05,630
Those are gorgeous.

800
00:28:06,210 --> 00:28:06,890
I know.

801
00:28:07,090 --> 00:28:09,830
They're really, like, cool-looking car.

802
00:28:09,930 --> 00:28:11,630
I mean, I still would not want a

803
00:28:11,630 --> 00:28:14,370
battery car, but they're cool-looking cars.

804
00:28:15,250 --> 00:28:16,270
You know, and then you look at the

805
00:28:16,270 --> 00:28:20,190
Tesla, it's like, feels kind of 2010-ish.

806
00:28:20,810 --> 00:28:21,970
It's old-fashioned-looking.

807
00:28:22,230 --> 00:28:23,510
Yeah, yeah, that's his problem.

808
00:28:23,510 --> 00:28:25,090
It was good-looking when it came out.

809
00:28:25,390 --> 00:28:26,890
Well, he had that designer guy, right?

810
00:28:26,930 --> 00:28:28,570
He had the OG designer.

811
00:28:28,930 --> 00:28:30,830
He had some designer that did a, you

812
00:28:30,830 --> 00:28:35,120
know, they've been kind of, like, that guy

813
00:28:35,120 --> 00:28:38,540
wasn't around anymore and everything's gotten stale-looking.

814
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:39,960
Yeah, after the S, after the S.

815
00:28:40,180 --> 00:28:41,520
The S was the good-looking one.

816
00:28:41,540 --> 00:28:43,540
Wasn't that the guy who designed the car

817
00:28:43,540 --> 00:28:44,740
that kept catching on fire?

818
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:45,520
Remember that one?

819
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:46,720
Fisker.

820
00:28:46,860 --> 00:28:47,280
Fisker.

821
00:28:47,940 --> 00:28:48,380
Fisker.

822
00:28:49,140 --> 00:28:50,720
He's just driving five feet.

823
00:28:51,620 --> 00:28:52,480
Catches on fire.

824
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:54,520
I know, you know, I thought it was,

825
00:28:54,620 --> 00:28:55,720
but it turns out it, I don't know

826
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:56,460
if it was or not.

827
00:28:56,540 --> 00:28:59,140
I had some, I wrote something up about

828
00:28:59,140 --> 00:29:01,720
the designer, and then I got people sending,

829
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:03,080
no, you got the wrong guy.

830
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,320
And so I don't know what the story

831
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,860
is with any accuracy on who designed the

832
00:29:08,860 --> 00:29:09,500
original S.

833
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:10,820
But that guy's not there.

834
00:29:10,940 --> 00:29:12,260
Whoever it was, he's not there.

835
00:29:12,260 --> 00:29:13,580
He's not there, that's the point, yes.

836
00:29:14,140 --> 00:29:17,460
I do have a related clip, which is

837
00:29:17,460 --> 00:29:20,900
from Al Gore, who had this very, it's.

838
00:29:21,180 --> 00:29:22,560
Oh, I'm glad you got the Al Gore

839
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:22,800
stuff.

840
00:29:22,940 --> 00:29:24,240
This, he gave the speech.

841
00:29:24,380 --> 00:29:24,760
Yes.

842
00:29:24,820 --> 00:29:26,500
And by the way, I did mention the

843
00:29:26,500 --> 00:29:26,880
newsletter.

844
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:28,300
We missed again.

845
00:29:28,420 --> 00:29:29,060
Oh no, Earth Day.

846
00:29:29,060 --> 00:29:30,820
I think for the 15th year in a

847
00:29:30,820 --> 00:29:30,960
row.

848
00:29:31,220 --> 00:29:31,660
Earth Day.

849
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,220
We missed our annual Earth Day promotion.

850
00:29:36,660 --> 00:29:37,020
Yes.

851
00:29:37,820 --> 00:29:38,760
Shame on you.

852
00:29:40,060 --> 00:29:42,300
I saw the local news doing a thing

853
00:29:42,300 --> 00:29:43,800
about Earth Day cocktails.

854
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:44,980
Earth Day cocktails.

855
00:29:46,380 --> 00:29:47,380
Yeah, what's that?

856
00:29:47,540 --> 00:29:48,080
Dirt in a jar?

857
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:49,820
No, it's just alcohol.

858
00:29:50,940 --> 00:29:52,660
You know, it's just, you cut up the

859
00:29:52,660 --> 00:29:54,580
lime so you can make it look like

860
00:29:54,580 --> 00:29:56,320
the continents, and then you drink it on

861
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:56,800
Earth Day.

862
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:57,580
I'm like, what is this?

863
00:29:57,700 --> 00:30:01,460
They don't even have anything to say about

864
00:30:01,460 --> 00:30:01,700
it.

865
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,020
It's so deluded.

866
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,080
Who even organizes Earth Day?

867
00:30:06,260 --> 00:30:06,840
Do we even know?

868
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:08,060
Who's in charge of this?

869
00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:08,620
Hold on a second.

870
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:10,540
I think whoever designed it.

871
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,200
I think, didn't this start in the 70s?

872
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:15,660
Let's see here, earthday.org.

873
00:30:15,660 --> 00:30:17,000
The official site.

874
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:18,900
I'm being verified by CloudFlare.

875
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:20,200
They don't think I'm a human.

876
00:30:20,340 --> 00:30:22,400
Ah, I've been approved.

877
00:30:22,540 --> 00:30:23,120
You've been kicked.

878
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:23,860
Here we go.

879
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:24,620
About us.

880
00:30:25,500 --> 00:30:25,840
Aboot.

881
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:26,580
Aboot us.

882
00:30:27,020 --> 00:30:27,380
Aboot.

883
00:30:27,580 --> 00:30:27,940
Aboot.

884
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:28,980
Let's see, our vision.

885
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:30,400
No, it doesn't say anything.

886
00:30:30,620 --> 00:30:31,620
Oh, board of directors.

887
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:32,940
Oh, a bunch of ugly people.

888
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:35,480
Let me see about, oh, they have their

889
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:35,840
history.

890
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:36,840
What's their history then?

891
00:30:39,020 --> 00:30:39,380
Yes.

892
00:30:40,660 --> 00:30:43,020
Every year on April 22nd, Earth Day marks

893
00:30:43,020 --> 00:30:45,120
the anniversary of the birth of the modern

894
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:47,480
environmental movement in 1970.

895
00:30:48,660 --> 00:30:49,880
You are right.

896
00:30:51,580 --> 00:30:52,460
You are right.

897
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:54,880
The stage was set for change.

898
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:57,260
And the environmental movement did not begin in

899
00:30:57,260 --> 00:30:57,820
1970.

900
00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:58,700
No, well, but here it is.

901
00:30:58,940 --> 00:31:00,900
The stage was set for change with the

902
00:31:00,900 --> 00:31:04,580
publication of Rachel Carson's New York Times bestseller,

903
00:31:04,820 --> 00:31:07,360
Silent Spring, in 1962.

904
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,960
Well, eight years later is what they're saying.

905
00:31:12,100 --> 00:31:12,400
Yeah.

906
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:15,380
Senator Gaylord Nelson.

907
00:31:16,420 --> 00:31:18,860
No, Silent Spring was a massive bestseller.

908
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:20,740
Yeah, did you read it?

909
00:31:21,460 --> 00:31:21,700
Yeah.

910
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:22,460
What was it about?

911
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:25,500
It was about how we're gonna all die.

912
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:29,400
Oh, an uplifting book.

913
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:30,600
Anyway.

914
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:33,180
Pesticides and things.

915
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:33,500
Oh, yeah.

916
00:31:33,700 --> 00:31:34,800
And acid rain.

917
00:31:34,980 --> 00:31:35,740
No, that came later.

918
00:31:36,380 --> 00:31:37,020
No, that's later.

919
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:37,340
Yeah.

920
00:31:37,580 --> 00:31:38,680
We had acid rain.

921
00:31:38,780 --> 00:31:39,820
We had the ozone hole.

922
00:31:39,940 --> 00:31:41,280
I remember as a kid, we had the

923
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:41,580
ozone hole.

924
00:31:41,580 --> 00:31:42,360
The ozone layer.

925
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:44,860
The hole in the ozone layer.

926
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:45,820
That was in the 70s.

927
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:47,200
We'd be looking up like, where is it?

928
00:31:47,460 --> 00:31:48,460
How come I can't see it?

929
00:31:48,620 --> 00:31:49,280
How do I see the...

930
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:50,840
It's because of your washing machine.

931
00:31:53,100 --> 00:31:54,620
So yeah, so here's...

932
00:31:54,620 --> 00:31:55,380
It was Freon.

933
00:31:55,460 --> 00:31:57,280
It was a refrigerator that was causing the

934
00:31:57,280 --> 00:31:58,640
ozone layer to pull.

935
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:01,140
Yeah, another good one.

936
00:32:01,900 --> 00:32:02,220
Freon.

937
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:02,940
Yeah, Freon.

938
00:32:02,980 --> 00:32:04,300
But then they came up with something else.

939
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:05,460
Ah, it doesn't use Freon.

940
00:32:05,500 --> 00:32:06,340
Then it was hairspray.

941
00:32:06,740 --> 00:32:08,380
Yeah, it was more toxic, but it doesn't

942
00:32:08,380 --> 00:32:09,040
put a hole in the ozone.

943
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:09,900
And then there was hairspray.

944
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:11,060
Hairspray was doing it.

945
00:32:11,260 --> 00:32:11,920
Hairspray, bad.

946
00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:15,200
I personally am responsible for a lot of

947
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,780
bad things in the environment during the 80s

948
00:32:17,780 --> 00:32:18,240
and 90s.

949
00:32:19,460 --> 00:32:21,900
So Al Gore does this very interesting thing.

950
00:32:21,980 --> 00:32:24,240
He says, I don't like calling people Hitler,

951
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:25,560
but you know, these guys are Hitler.

952
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:28,240
I want to note that before I agree

953
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,280
with what is not a precedent, I understand

954
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,520
very well why it is wrong to compare

955
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:35,760
Adolf Hitler's Third Reich to any other movement.

956
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:37,840
It was uniquely evil, full stop.

957
00:32:38,140 --> 00:32:38,760
I get it.

958
00:32:39,500 --> 00:32:41,860
But there are important lessons from the history

959
00:32:41,860 --> 00:32:43,040
of that emergent evil.

960
00:32:43,180 --> 00:32:44,800
And here is one that I regard as

961
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:45,220
essential.

962
00:32:46,180 --> 00:32:49,080
In the immediate aftermath of World War II,

963
00:32:50,260 --> 00:32:53,200
a small group of philosophers who had escaped

964
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:57,860
Hitler's murderous regime returned to Germany and performed

965
00:32:57,860 --> 00:33:00,940
a kind of moral autopsy on the Third

966
00:33:00,940 --> 00:33:01,300
Reich.

967
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:04,500
The most famous of the so-called Frankfurt

968
00:33:04,500 --> 00:33:07,060
School of Philosophers was a man named Jürgen

969
00:33:07,060 --> 00:33:08,100
Habermas.

970
00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:10,160
Best known, I would say.

971
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:11,020
But it was...

972
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:12,700
Do you know who that guy was?

973
00:33:12,860 --> 00:33:13,740
Jürgen Habermas?

974
00:33:13,860 --> 00:33:14,320
What's his name?

975
00:33:14,500 --> 00:33:14,720
No.

976
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:16,860
I know about the Frankfurt School, but I

977
00:33:16,860 --> 00:33:18,360
don't know specific guys.

978
00:33:18,620 --> 00:33:18,720
Okay.

979
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,240
Famous of the so-called Frankfurt School of

980
00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:24,060
Philosophers was a man named Jürgen Habermas.

981
00:33:24,580 --> 00:33:26,080
Best known, I would say.

982
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:30,140
But it was Habermas's mentor, Theodor Adorno.

983
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:31,500
Do we know him?

984
00:33:32,460 --> 00:33:32,640
Yeah.

985
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:33,700
Yes.

986
00:33:34,900 --> 00:33:37,700
He wrote a book called The Authoritarian Personality.

987
00:33:37,700 --> 00:33:38,860
Oh, okay.

988
00:33:38,980 --> 00:33:39,840
Very famous guy.

989
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:40,640
Oh, thank you.

990
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:44,340
Who wrote that the first step in that

991
00:33:44,340 --> 00:33:47,780
nation's descent into hell was, and I quote,

992
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:53,140
the conversion of all questions of truth into

993
00:33:53,140 --> 00:33:55,060
questions of power.

994
00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:57,240
Oh, okay.

995
00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,360
Conversion of all questions of truth into questions

996
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:02,080
of power.

997
00:34:02,700 --> 00:34:03,440
So let's see.

998
00:34:03,860 --> 00:34:05,580
How is he going to spin this to

999
00:34:05,580 --> 00:34:05,740
Trump?

1000
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:07,300
How is he going to spin this?

1001
00:34:08,699 --> 00:34:11,159
He described how the Nazis, and I quote

1002
00:34:11,159 --> 00:34:13,800
again, attacked the very heart of the distinction

1003
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:17,739
between true and false, end quote.

1004
00:34:18,219 --> 00:34:20,159
Ah, we're going to do some lies.

1005
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:24,739
The Trump administration is insisting on trying to

1006
00:34:24,739 --> 00:34:28,400
create their own preferred version of reality.

1007
00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:31,440
They say Ukraine attacked Russia instead of the

1008
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:32,179
other way around.

1009
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:33,920
Never said that.

1010
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:35,060
I don't think they ever said that.

1011
00:34:35,139 --> 00:34:36,040
They said they provoked.

1012
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:37,760
This is a creation talk.

1013
00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:39,560
See, what he's going to do.

1014
00:34:40,199 --> 00:34:40,699
Is lie.

1015
00:34:40,940 --> 00:34:41,780
He's the liar.

1016
00:34:42,179 --> 00:34:42,320
Yes.

1017
00:34:42,980 --> 00:34:44,260
But that's what you do.

1018
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,219
You take the examples, you create a methodology

1019
00:34:47,219 --> 00:34:49,460
that you show that the other side's bad,

1020
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:54,219
and then you use those techniques against the

1021
00:34:54,219 --> 00:34:54,520
audience.

1022
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:55,600
This is really good.

1023
00:34:55,679 --> 00:34:56,460
He's good at it.

1024
00:34:56,500 --> 00:34:59,540
On trying to create their own preferred version

1025
00:34:59,540 --> 00:35:00,760
of reality.

1026
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,820
They say Ukraine attacked Russia instead of the

1027
00:35:03,820 --> 00:35:04,520
other way around.

1028
00:35:05,060 --> 00:35:06,960
And expect us to believe it.

1029
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:10,660
At home, they attack heroes who have defended

1030
00:35:10,660 --> 00:35:14,020
our nation in war and against cyber attacks

1031
00:35:14,020 --> 00:35:15,200
as traitors.

1032
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:19,740
Well, he's talking about the veterans.

1033
00:35:20,060 --> 00:35:22,240
Remember, he said they're losers because they, you

1034
00:35:22,240 --> 00:35:22,900
know, John McCain.

1035
00:35:23,140 --> 00:35:23,880
Oh, they never lie.

1036
00:35:24,220 --> 00:35:24,940
Yeah, losers.

1037
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:26,260
Losers, suckers, and losers.

1038
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:27,000
Suckers and losers.

1039
00:35:27,100 --> 00:35:28,120
Yes, suckers and losers.

1040
00:35:28,220 --> 00:35:28,400
Yes.

1041
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:30,580
They say the climate crisis is a hoax.

1042
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:32,000
Well, yeah.

1043
00:35:32,420 --> 00:35:32,940
Okay.

1044
00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:35,060
I'll give you that one.

1045
00:35:35,240 --> 00:35:38,520
Invented by the Chinese to destroy American manufacturing.

1046
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:40,120
Oh, a little laughter there.

1047
00:35:41,180 --> 00:35:42,220
Invented by the Chinese.

1048
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:44,260
No, invented by you.

1049
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:45,700
That's why he's laughing.

1050
00:35:46,500 --> 00:35:48,100
They say it's the Chinese.

1051
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:49,220
It was me.

1052
00:35:49,240 --> 00:35:50,000
Yeah, it was the Chinese.

1053
00:35:50,260 --> 00:35:50,800
They don't know anything.

1054
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:51,940
I'm the one who did it.

1055
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:53,220
I'm the one who did that.

1056
00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:54,820
They say coal is clean.

1057
00:35:55,620 --> 00:35:56,060
No.

1058
00:35:57,240 --> 00:35:58,080
What did he say?

1059
00:35:58,160 --> 00:35:58,640
What was that one?

1060
00:35:58,780 --> 00:36:00,300
They say coal is clean.

1061
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:02,100
No, they're talking about clean coal.

1062
00:36:02,100 --> 00:36:03,360
Yeah, clean coal.

1063
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:04,160
Which is marketing.

1064
00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:04,880
Agreed.

1065
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:06,420
But it is much cleaner than it used

1066
00:36:06,420 --> 00:36:06,800
to be.

1067
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:09,640
Well, coal is coal.

1068
00:36:10,140 --> 00:36:12,300
The problem is coal is coal.

1069
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:14,040
It's not, it doesn't change.

1070
00:36:14,180 --> 00:36:16,560
It doesn't, you know, lignite, which is the

1071
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,920
good coal, which is pretty clean, doesn't change

1072
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:20,820
over the eons.

1073
00:36:20,940 --> 00:36:22,280
It's the same damn stuff.

1074
00:36:22,340 --> 00:36:26,160
Except that the methodology, the floating bed burners

1075
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:28,240
and all the rest of it that create

1076
00:36:28,240 --> 00:36:32,120
coal power, coal power energy has improved over

1077
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:33,980
the years with scrubbers on the one end

1078
00:36:33,980 --> 00:36:36,080
and and the floating bed on the other.

1079
00:36:36,260 --> 00:36:38,700
And you get a pretty good burn job

1080
00:36:38,700 --> 00:36:39,920
without it being a mess.

1081
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:42,080
So that's what they're referring to when they

1082
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:43,000
say clean coal.

1083
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:45,000
But he takes the president.

1084
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:45,420
He's a liar.

1085
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:48,520
Well, he takes the president's words literally by

1086
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:50,820
saying, you know, because he said clean, beautiful

1087
00:36:50,820 --> 00:36:51,340
coal.

1088
00:36:53,020 --> 00:36:55,680
So but yeah, OK, I guess.

1089
00:36:56,140 --> 00:36:57,480
They say coal is clean.

1090
00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,100
They say wind turbines cause cancer.

1091
00:37:00,300 --> 00:37:01,420
They say sea level rise.

1092
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:02,580
That's never happened either.

1093
00:37:03,240 --> 00:37:04,140
I don't think anyone said it.

1094
00:37:04,180 --> 00:37:06,520
Who said the wind turbines cause cancer?

1095
00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:08,820
The president may have alluded to it at

1096
00:37:08,820 --> 00:37:08,920
some point.

1097
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:10,860
No, he made some joke about it.

1098
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:13,620
Why about Martha, I can't watch the TV.

1099
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:17,860
But people have definitely claimed to become sick

1100
00:37:17,860 --> 00:37:19,600
from the sound of wind turbines.

1101
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,940
And there have been higher instances of cancer

1102
00:37:22,940 --> 00:37:24,120
near wind farms.

1103
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:27,060
But, you know, we still don't know what

1104
00:37:27,060 --> 00:37:29,320
is causing all of this cancer everywhere.

1105
00:37:29,540 --> 00:37:31,560
We have no idea what could it be.

1106
00:37:31,860 --> 00:37:35,280
So anyway, they say wind turbines cause cancer.

1107
00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:37,880
They say sea level rise is creates more

1108
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:39,240
beachfront property.

1109
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:41,380
Well, yeah, nobody says this.

1110
00:37:41,540 --> 00:37:42,020
No, he did.

1111
00:37:42,100 --> 00:37:44,900
The joke was if if the sea level

1112
00:37:44,900 --> 00:37:46,660
rises, then I'll just it's what I always

1113
00:37:46,660 --> 00:37:46,940
say.

1114
00:37:47,300 --> 00:37:48,880
If we're really going to have sea level

1115
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:51,740
rise, I'll have beachfront property in Fredericksburg.

1116
00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:53,500
That's the I have it right here for

1117
00:37:53,500 --> 00:37:53,820
sure.

1118
00:37:53,820 --> 00:37:55,260
Yes, it's a joke.

1119
00:37:55,420 --> 00:37:57,000
But OK, I guess he takes it seriously.

1120
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:01,420
Their allies in the oligarchic backlash to climate

1121
00:38:01,420 --> 00:38:03,740
action argued that those who want to stop

1122
00:38:03,740 --> 00:38:05,680
using the sky as an open sewer, for

1123
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:07,680
God's sake, the sky is an open sewer.

1124
00:38:07,820 --> 00:38:10,580
Now there's a lie need to be more

1125
00:38:10,580 --> 00:38:15,440
realistic and acquiesce to the huge increases in

1126
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,600
the burning of more and more fossil fuels,

1127
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,620
which is what they're pushing, even though that

1128
00:38:20,620 --> 00:38:23,800
is the principal cause of the climate crisis.

1129
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:26,300
Oh, yeah, there you go.

1130
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:27,260
You know, I actually.

1131
00:38:28,720 --> 00:38:31,360
So the oil and gas guys are busy.

1132
00:38:31,820 --> 00:38:34,980
They are very busy because all this nuclear

1133
00:38:34,980 --> 00:38:37,520
talk, all this talk about, you know, small.

1134
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:39,360
I mean, even at the wedding last night,

1135
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:41,180
by the way, who gets married on a

1136
00:38:41,180 --> 00:38:41,800
Wednesday night?

1137
00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:43,320
I'm sorry, what?

1138
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:44,980
Who gets married on a Wednesday night?

1139
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:46,160
Wednesday nights.

1140
00:38:46,340 --> 00:38:48,360
That's what Horowitz is asking everybody.

1141
00:38:48,580 --> 00:38:48,960
Yes.

1142
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:51,680
Well, he's he's he's just a sheriff's lieutenant.

1143
00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:52,900
He doesn't have a lot of money.

1144
00:38:53,240 --> 00:38:54,700
So I think that's it.

1145
00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:58,340
Oh, Wednesday discount night for marriage discount night.

1146
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:01,540
They ask for money for their honeymoon, honeymoon

1147
00:39:01,540 --> 00:39:03,380
instead of gifts, which I'm cool with.

1148
00:39:03,540 --> 00:39:04,160
Did they?

1149
00:39:04,460 --> 00:39:04,600
Yeah.

1150
00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:06,660
Yeah, that's cool.

1151
00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:07,200
I get it.

1152
00:39:07,240 --> 00:39:09,860
Well, as a police department, you know, they

1153
00:39:09,860 --> 00:39:11,380
make money, but they couldn't.

1154
00:39:11,460 --> 00:39:13,020
He doesn't make a lot of money.

1155
00:39:13,300 --> 00:39:14,740
And for getting shot at.

1156
00:39:14,820 --> 00:39:16,200
No, he doesn't make a lot of money

1157
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:17,940
for getting shot or dealing with the public.

1158
00:39:17,940 --> 00:39:20,260
He runs he runs the SWAT team and

1159
00:39:20,260 --> 00:39:20,640
everything.

1160
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:21,580
He's a cool dude.

1161
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:22,980
He's a he's a good guy to have

1162
00:39:22,980 --> 00:39:23,700
on speed dial.

1163
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:24,380
Let me tell you that.

1164
00:39:25,180 --> 00:39:26,520
He's the guy you want as a friend.

1165
00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:29,700
Anyway, so all this talk.

1166
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:31,460
Why does he have a SWAT team there

1167
00:39:31,460 --> 00:39:31,880
for?

1168
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:33,620
It's Fredericksburg, man.

1169
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:35,920
We got MS-13.

1170
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:38,540
We got Trinidad and Tobago here.

1171
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:40,140
One guy.

1172
00:39:40,420 --> 00:39:41,320
According to Laura Logan.

1173
00:39:41,620 --> 00:39:43,520
He's like a Lyft Uber driver, does both.

1174
00:39:44,240 --> 00:39:45,980
No, they just live here.

1175
00:39:45,980 --> 00:39:48,120
You see, they don't cause trouble here.

1176
00:39:48,180 --> 00:39:48,980
They just live here.

1177
00:39:50,620 --> 00:39:51,200
This is.

1178
00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:52,880
We got this all last night from Joe

1179
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:53,440
in the car.

1180
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:55,520
It's Trinidad and Tobago everywhere.

1181
00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:56,540
They're here.

1182
00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:58,060
They're right here in Fredericksburg.

1183
00:39:58,120 --> 00:39:58,740
They just live here.

1184
00:39:59,000 --> 00:39:59,480
Oh, OK.

1185
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:00,920
Well, I feel good about that then.

1186
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:04,960
Anyway, all this talk about data centers going

1187
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:05,540
on nuclear.

1188
00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:08,960
You know, the Three Mile Island being part

1189
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:10,420
of it being fired up again.

1190
00:40:10,780 --> 00:40:11,860
Nuclear, nuclear, nuclear.

1191
00:40:12,060 --> 00:40:13,100
Bill Gates, everybody nuclear.

1192
00:40:13,340 --> 00:40:14,800
We can't have this.

1193
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:16,280
Let's call CBS.

1194
00:40:16,460 --> 00:40:17,080
Hello, CBS.

1195
00:40:17,540 --> 00:40:18,900
We'd like to do a buy.

1196
00:40:19,180 --> 00:40:20,600
Yeah, we'll do triple the rate.

1197
00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:22,680
So we do 360s.

1198
00:40:22,720 --> 00:40:24,360
And could you make it into a package?

1199
00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:25,400
Why sure.

1200
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,340
Just 15 miles away from St. Louis's Gateway

1201
00:40:28,340 --> 00:40:31,460
Arch, nuclear waste was stored for decades.

1202
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,000
It was all top secret.

1203
00:40:33,380 --> 00:40:36,340
Linda Maurice lived near Coldwater Creek for 18

1204
00:40:36,340 --> 00:40:36,820
years.

1205
00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:39,600
The waterway ran right by the storage site.

1206
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:43,980
There was a deposit site where the processes

1207
00:40:43,980 --> 00:40:49,260
and waste of the Manhattan Project had been.

1208
00:40:49,980 --> 00:40:51,300
The Manhattan Project?

1209
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:53,480
Was that a nuclear project?

1210
00:40:55,020 --> 00:40:56,220
Are you kidding me?

1211
00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:57,440
Well, I mean, the nuclear bomb.

1212
00:40:57,660 --> 00:41:00,480
But but they they tested it with waste

1213
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:01,240
on the ground.

1214
00:41:03,300 --> 00:41:05,700
I have no idea what she's talking about.

1215
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:07,500
And it wasn't that wasn't that in the

1216
00:41:07,500 --> 00:41:08,300
desert somewhere?

1217
00:41:08,460 --> 00:41:09,980
It was out and it was in New

1218
00:41:09,980 --> 00:41:10,420
Mexico.

1219
00:41:10,420 --> 00:41:10,880
Yeah.

1220
00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:16,080
Where the processes and waste of the Manhattan

1221
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:20,440
Project had been stored, that is to say,

1222
00:41:20,620 --> 00:41:23,900
dumped in the open or put in barrels

1223
00:41:23,900 --> 00:41:24,540
that rusted.

1224
00:41:24,900 --> 00:41:28,800
Eventually, Linda's mother, father and brother would all

1225
00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:30,620
die of lymphoma.

1226
00:41:31,260 --> 00:41:33,380
I think there are people to this day

1227
00:41:33,380 --> 00:41:35,320
who don't know the story.

1228
00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:39,320
It wasn't until 1989, 43 years after the

1229
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:42,040
waste was first dumped, that the Environmental Protection

1230
00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:44,660
Agency classified the area as hazardous.

1231
00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:48,180
They said it was dangerously contaminated and ordered

1232
00:41:48,180 --> 00:41:49,120
a government cleanup.

1233
00:41:49,820 --> 00:41:52,140
But by that time, more than 60,000

1234
00:41:52,140 --> 00:41:54,300
people lived within just one mile of the

1235
00:41:54,300 --> 00:41:56,440
creek, including Kristen Camuso.

1236
00:41:56,980 --> 00:41:58,680
I had to have a total hysterectomy.

1237
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:00,500
I've been diagnosed with thyroid cancer.

1238
00:42:00,900 --> 00:42:03,140
They found a new tumor on my remaining

1239
00:42:03,140 --> 00:42:03,940
adrenal gland.

1240
00:42:04,700 --> 00:42:08,200
And this is horrible fear mongering, the way

1241
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:08,940
I see it.

1242
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:10,720
Now, where was this?

1243
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:11,420
Where was this?

1244
00:42:11,720 --> 00:42:11,980
Pennsylvania.

1245
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:14,840
Why would they move it from all the

1246
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:16,500
way from New Mexico to Pennsylvania?

1247
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,700
When they have New Mexico and Arizona and

1248
00:42:19,700 --> 00:42:22,880
Nevada is like Nevada, Nevada.

1249
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:23,960
Yeah.

1250
00:42:24,260 --> 00:42:24,760
Tell me.

1251
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:25,680
Nevada.

1252
00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:28,760
They're loaded with deserts that could be used.

1253
00:42:29,100 --> 00:42:30,260
Holes can be dug.

1254
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:32,740
Stuff can be tossed in there with nobody

1255
00:42:32,740 --> 00:42:33,300
nearby.

1256
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:35,720
It makes no sense to me.

1257
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:37,720
Well, the tell here is the Manhattan Project.

1258
00:42:38,140 --> 00:42:41,260
I mean, do you get nuclear waste before

1259
00:42:41,260 --> 00:42:46,160
the fusion, before the atoms have clashed and

1260
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:47,620
the heat is generated?

1261
00:42:47,740 --> 00:42:49,440
Well, they were doing, they had to do

1262
00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:52,840
some extraction, I suppose, in the process.

1263
00:42:53,060 --> 00:42:53,840
It's possible.

1264
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:56,200
Camuso is a policy director for the Missouri

1265
00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:57,680
Coalition for the Environment.

1266
00:42:58,340 --> 00:43:00,520
She's been pushing for the remaining waste to

1267
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:02,540
be removed for more than 12 years.

1268
00:43:02,540 --> 00:43:05,340
I was quite literally laying in my hospital

1269
00:43:05,340 --> 00:43:07,680
bed and I promised myself.

1270
00:43:08,180 --> 00:43:09,880
By the way, stop the clip.

1271
00:43:11,060 --> 00:43:13,480
Another good reason to pay attention to the

1272
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:15,580
tips of the day on the No Agenda

1273
00:43:15,580 --> 00:43:15,960
show.

1274
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:18,040
And you would buy a Geiger counter.

1275
00:43:18,540 --> 00:43:18,840
Yes.

1276
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:21,040
And you would know what's going on.

1277
00:43:22,420 --> 00:43:25,080
Well, now you've made me stop for a

1278
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:27,160
second because I was going to talk about

1279
00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:29,740
this later, but something very concerning has taken

1280
00:43:29,740 --> 00:43:30,200
place.

1281
00:43:32,540 --> 00:43:33,880
Let me see if I can find it

1282
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:34,480
here.

1283
00:43:34,660 --> 00:43:35,740
With the Geiger counter?

1284
00:43:36,060 --> 00:43:37,840
No, with the tip of the day.

1285
00:43:39,180 --> 00:43:41,820
Oh, there is another scandal.

1286
00:43:42,180 --> 00:43:42,400
Yes.

1287
00:43:42,580 --> 00:43:43,800
The tip of the day has become the

1288
00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:46,700
most scandalous part of the show.

1289
00:43:47,100 --> 00:43:47,420
Yes.

1290
00:43:48,420 --> 00:43:50,980
Yeah, now I think it has to do

1291
00:43:50,980 --> 00:43:55,060
with the live disc product.

1292
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:56,020
No, no, no.

1293
00:43:56,480 --> 00:43:57,700
This is the scandal.

1294
00:43:58,500 --> 00:44:01,100
This is the Bill O'Reilly show.

1295
00:44:01,100 --> 00:44:03,040
Now, we have a brand new thing for

1296
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:05,840
concierge and premium members called tip of the

1297
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:06,220
day.

1298
00:44:06,300 --> 00:44:06,600
What?

1299
00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:07,120
Starts tomorrow.

1300
00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:07,500
What?

1301
00:44:08,100 --> 00:44:10,460
And every day on the website, I'm going

1302
00:44:10,460 --> 00:44:12,020
to put a tip that will make your

1303
00:44:12,020 --> 00:44:12,640
life better.

1304
00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:14,560
That's a lot of tips.

1305
00:44:15,100 --> 00:44:18,280
Some of them will be frothy, entertainment, there's

1306
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:19,440
a good book to read, there's a good

1307
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:21,100
movie to see, whatever it may be, that

1308
00:44:21,100 --> 00:44:21,540
kind of thing.

1309
00:44:21,780 --> 00:44:22,800
But some will be important.

1310
00:44:24,260 --> 00:44:26,780
Okay, just for concierge and premium members.

1311
00:44:27,380 --> 00:44:29,480
We should be doing it for premium members.

1312
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:34,360
Yeah, concierge and the bundle, the No Agenda

1313
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:34,900
bundle.

1314
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:38,120
Concierge members of the No Agenda show get

1315
00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:39,840
their tip of the day, but only if

1316
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:41,100
you're a concierge member.

1317
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:43,840
Man, that guy just ripped us off.

1318
00:44:45,020 --> 00:44:45,520
Ripped us off.

1319
00:44:45,540 --> 00:44:46,880
He ripped off Dana Brunetti.

1320
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:49,500
Dana Brunetti should be outraged.

1321
00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:51,480
He should send him a cease and desist.

1322
00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:52,460
I think so.

1323
00:44:52,820 --> 00:44:55,960
Last year, Camuso and the Washington University Environmental

1324
00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:58,820
Law Clinic analyzed the Corps' cleanup plans.

1325
00:44:59,100 --> 00:45:01,140
Not only are they concerned about the slow

1326
00:45:01,140 --> 00:45:04,060
pace, they say the Corps is leaving behind

1327
00:45:04,060 --> 00:45:06,920
nearly three times more radioactive isotopes than the

1328
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:08,720
Department of Energy said is safe.

1329
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:12,860
What they're finding is mostly thorium-230, and

1330
00:45:12,860 --> 00:45:14,880
that is an alpha emitter.

1331
00:45:15,140 --> 00:45:15,660
What does that mean?

1332
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:17,860
So basically, it becomes dangerous when you inhale

1333
00:45:17,860 --> 00:45:19,880
or ingest it, and once it's in your

1334
00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:21,600
body, it will continue to fire for the

1335
00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:22,300
rest of your life.

1336
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:24,720
The Corps told us their cleanup plans are

1337
00:45:24,720 --> 00:45:28,240
safe, but the Environmental Protection Agency wasn't convinced.

1338
00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:32,160
CBS News found that in 2020, EPA scientists

1339
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:34,540
asked the Corps for specific data on the

1340
00:45:34,540 --> 00:45:37,660
contamination, but the Corps did not respond to

1341
00:45:37,660 --> 00:45:38,440
those requests.

1342
00:45:38,740 --> 00:45:41,420
Everybody has been touched by this legacy, and

1343
00:45:41,420 --> 00:45:44,400
I feel it's a responsibility of mine.

1344
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:46,960
Now that I know this information, I can't

1345
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:47,720
just sit on it.

1346
00:45:48,100 --> 00:45:49,900
The Corps has promised an update on the

1347
00:45:49,900 --> 00:45:52,380
contamination in four months when it's set to

1348
00:45:52,380 --> 00:45:54,080
publish its latest five-year review.

1349
00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:56,340
But while the people here wait for the

1350
00:45:56,340 --> 00:45:59,340
threat to be dealt with, the creek continues

1351
00:45:59,340 --> 00:45:59,840
to flow.

1352
00:46:00,660 --> 00:46:03,320
Okay, so I can't see that any other

1353
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:06,520
way than that's oil and gas, you know,

1354
00:46:06,540 --> 00:46:07,900
like, let's get something going.

1355
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:09,800
Hey, remember that thing we had in Pennsylvania

1356
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:11,660
in the 70s?

1357
00:46:11,780 --> 00:46:12,820
Let's bring that back.

1358
00:46:13,220 --> 00:46:14,620
You got anybody who's dying of cancer?

1359
00:46:14,780 --> 00:46:15,260
Yeah, let me see.

1360
00:46:15,700 --> 00:46:16,200
Yeah, we got this.

1361
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:20,100
That's such an interesting theory of yours, because

1362
00:46:20,100 --> 00:46:22,860
it doesn't really benefit anybody to do these

1363
00:46:22,860 --> 00:46:24,260
stories except oil and gas.

1364
00:46:24,420 --> 00:46:26,180
Now, we had the same thing around here.

1365
00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:34,120
We have a nuclear waste dump on Treasure

1366
00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:35,600
Island in San Francisco.

1367
00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:37,180
Yes, yes, I remember.

1368
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:38,940
Over in one corner, I know exactly where

1369
00:46:38,940 --> 00:46:41,700
it is, and they supposedly buried it, or

1370
00:46:41,700 --> 00:46:42,980
I don't know what they did, but now

1371
00:46:42,980 --> 00:46:45,780
they put buildings over there because they've privatized

1372
00:46:45,780 --> 00:46:46,260
the island.

1373
00:46:47,860 --> 00:46:50,060
And wasn't Google or something going to buy

1374
00:46:50,060 --> 00:46:50,960
that at some point?

1375
00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:52,940
Do I remember something like that?

1376
00:46:53,100 --> 00:46:55,340
It's a bunch of these treasure ball things

1377
00:46:55,340 --> 00:46:56,020
going around.

1378
00:46:56,280 --> 00:46:57,400
It's all military.

1379
00:46:57,580 --> 00:47:00,400
You know, the military, or the vaunted military,

1380
00:47:00,580 --> 00:47:02,680
they get a hold of something and they

1381
00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:03,980
don't care.

1382
00:47:04,580 --> 00:47:06,320
So lots of fear mongering.

1383
00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:08,820
I only have the opening, which will tell

1384
00:47:08,820 --> 00:47:09,420
you enough.

1385
00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:10,660
60 minutes.

1386
00:47:10,820 --> 00:47:12,300
Now, of course, we need to blame everything

1387
00:47:12,300 --> 00:47:12,820
on Trump.

1388
00:47:13,460 --> 00:47:15,640
Bird flu has been circling the globe for

1389
00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:19,540
decades, so the discovery in 2024 that the

1390
00:47:19,540 --> 00:47:23,280
deadly pathogen had jumped from a wild bird

1391
00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:25,480
to a cow came as a shock to

1392
00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:26,380
virus watchers.

1393
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:28,260
It came as a shock to virus watchers.

1394
00:47:28,300 --> 00:47:30,480
Hey, how many virus watchers do you know?

1395
00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:32,020
Be quiet.

1396
00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:33,160
I'm watching a virus.

1397
00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:37,140
Now, in just over a year, the virus

1398
00:47:37,140 --> 00:47:40,160
has ripped through America's dairy herds and poultry

1399
00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:40,600
flocks.

1400
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:43,780
It has jumped to other mammals, including humans.

1401
00:47:43,860 --> 00:47:47,060
It has jumped to other mammals, including humans,

1402
00:47:47,240 --> 00:47:49,900
implying it could jump from human to human.

1403
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:52,920
This is an obvious pharma segment here.

1404
00:47:53,220 --> 00:47:55,360
70 Americans have caught the virus.

1405
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:56,780
One has died.

1406
00:47:57,160 --> 00:48:00,780
Long feared as a possible pandemic, doctors and

1407
00:48:00,780 --> 00:48:04,300
veterinarians fighting the virus told us Biden's government

1408
00:48:04,300 --> 00:48:07,340
was slow to act, while the Trump administration

1409
00:48:07,340 --> 00:48:10,280
has now laid off more than 100 key

1410
00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:10,840
scientists.

1411
00:48:11,420 --> 00:48:12,120
Oh, no.

1412
00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:13,880
As the virus keeps spreading.

1413
00:48:14,260 --> 00:48:16,140
Yeah, so when you die, you know who

1414
00:48:16,140 --> 00:48:16,660
to blame.

1415
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:19,760
When we create this, you'll know who to

1416
00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:20,040
blame.

1417
00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:24,100
The question is, can we actually ramp up

1418
00:48:24,100 --> 00:48:27,180
another pandemic now that the World Health Organization

1419
00:48:27,180 --> 00:48:28,600
is falling apart?

1420
00:48:28,900 --> 00:48:31,360
He described the large sudden drop in funding

1421
00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:33,340
in US foreign aid as severe.

1422
00:48:33,340 --> 00:48:36,000
The United Nations Health Agency has no choice

1423
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:37,980
but to slash jobs and operations.

1424
00:48:38,580 --> 00:48:40,360
The refusal of the US to pay its

1425
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:44,400
assessed contributions for 2024 and 2025, combined with

1426
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:47,060
reductions in official development assistance by some other

1427
00:48:47,060 --> 00:48:49,380
countries, means we are facing a salary gap

1428
00:48:49,380 --> 00:48:51,080
for the 2026-27.

1429
00:48:51,660 --> 00:48:52,280
Salary gap.

1430
00:48:52,380 --> 00:48:54,180
This is about, for some reason, the beginning

1431
00:48:54,180 --> 00:48:55,640
got cut off, but it's about the World

1432
00:48:55,640 --> 00:48:58,080
Health Organization saying they have to lay off

1433
00:48:58,080 --> 00:48:58,360
people.

1434
00:48:58,520 --> 00:48:59,900
But listen to the- I thought Bill

1435
00:48:59,900 --> 00:49:02,180
Gates was financing this and the Chinese.

1436
00:49:02,180 --> 00:49:03,740
Why do we have anything to do with

1437
00:49:03,740 --> 00:49:03,860
it?

1438
00:49:03,860 --> 00:49:06,020
When you hear the numbers, you'll understand why.

1439
00:49:06,140 --> 00:49:08,120
Some other countries means we are facing a

1440
00:49:08,120 --> 00:49:11,440
salary gap for the 2026-27 biennium of

1441
00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:14,380
between $560 and $650 million.

1442
00:49:14,900 --> 00:49:17,900
In addition to stopping- That's half a

1443
00:49:17,900 --> 00:49:20,360
billion dollars salaries alone.

1444
00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:23,140
Contributions the Trump administration plans to fully withdraw

1445
00:49:23,140 --> 00:49:25,020
from the organization next January.

1446
00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:27,620
In remarks to member states, the WHO chief

1447
00:49:27,620 --> 00:49:29,800
Dr. Tedros said they would be saying goodbye

1448
00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:31,680
to a significant number of colleagues.

1449
00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:34,280
He said the funding gap represented about 25

1450
00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:36,700
% of staff costs, but- It's only

1451
00:49:36,700 --> 00:49:37,440
25%.

1452
00:49:38,580 --> 00:49:42,160
Their salary is $2 billion a year?

1453
00:49:43,720 --> 00:49:44,720
For what?

1454
00:49:44,900 --> 00:49:45,640
Thank you.

1455
00:49:45,740 --> 00:49:48,020
They've got, you know, the video shows buildings

1456
00:49:48,020 --> 00:49:48,800
everywhere.

1457
00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:50,320
What are they doing?

1458
00:49:50,460 --> 00:49:52,020
They actually explain what they do.

1459
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:54,200
Stress that did not mean a 25%

1460
00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:55,740
cut in the number of positions.

1461
00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:58,480
The leadership team in the organization's headquarters will

1462
00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:00,960
be reduced, and there's a possibility some WHO

1463
00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:03,260
offices in wealthier countries will be closed.

1464
00:50:03,540 --> 00:50:06,200
The agency, which coordinates the world's response to

1465
00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:09,560
health emergency, prevents disease and expands access-

1466
00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:10,620
It prevents disease.

1467
00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:11,600
Don't you hear that?

1468
00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:13,340
Oh, they do that?

1469
00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:16,120
Yeah, with the $2 billion, apparently.

1470
00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:17,640
Your countries will be closed.

1471
00:50:17,940 --> 00:50:20,600
The agency, which coordinates the world's response to

1472
00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:23,980
health emergency, prevents disease and expands access to

1473
00:50:23,980 --> 00:50:26,660
healthcare, needs to reduce its activities and re

1474
00:50:26,660 --> 00:50:28,040
-center on its core functions.

1475
00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:30,920
The news comes shortly after WHO member countries

1476
00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:33,820
finalized an historic agreement to help prevent the

1477
00:50:33,820 --> 00:50:34,500
next pandemic.

1478
00:50:34,860 --> 00:50:36,440
And they were going to help prevent the

1479
00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:37,940
next pandemic with an agreement.

1480
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:38,740
They have paper.

1481
00:50:39,460 --> 00:50:41,440
So how many great pandemics have we had

1482
00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:42,060
over history?

1483
00:50:42,420 --> 00:50:42,520
Two.

1484
00:50:44,380 --> 00:50:46,280
Well, over recent history, we had two.

1485
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:49,720
We had the Spanish flu in 1917.

1486
00:50:49,820 --> 00:50:51,280
Then we had 100 years later.

1487
00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:52,540
Yeah, we had COVID.

1488
00:50:52,620 --> 00:50:54,140
So it's about every 100 years.

1489
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:55,860
Yeah, so two that I can recall.

1490
00:50:55,980 --> 00:50:57,760
And we had the Black Plague, of course.

1491
00:50:58,340 --> 00:50:59,500
That's way before.

1492
00:50:59,660 --> 00:51:01,160
That was, I think, the 1400s.

1493
00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:03,000
Yes, that was Elizabeth the Great.

1494
00:51:03,700 --> 00:51:06,660
But there was a Elizabeth the Great.

1495
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:08,140
She was great.

1496
00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:09,560
What was her name?

1497
00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:10,920
It was Elizabeth the Great.

1498
00:51:11,020 --> 00:51:11,640
I know I'm right.

1499
00:51:11,740 --> 00:51:13,220
There was no Elizabeth the Great.

1500
00:51:13,380 --> 00:51:13,960
Yes, it was.

1501
00:51:14,220 --> 00:51:15,500
Yes, her name of Russia.

1502
00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:18,100
Catherine the Great.

1503
00:51:18,260 --> 00:51:19,160
That's what I mean.

1504
00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:21,300
Her name was Catherine Elizabeth the Great.

1505
00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:23,440
Catherine Elizabeth.

1506
00:51:24,140 --> 00:51:25,320
Good Catholic girl.

1507
00:51:26,180 --> 00:51:28,360
Mary Ellen Elizabeth Catherine.

1508
00:51:28,420 --> 00:51:29,500
Catherine Elizabeth the Great.

1509
00:51:31,540 --> 00:51:33,120
That's why there's two of us, everybody.

1510
00:51:33,460 --> 00:51:34,120
Just so you know.

1511
00:51:36,240 --> 00:51:39,020
So they happen about every 100 years, maybe.

1512
00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:41,380
But they keep trying to make them happen.

1513
00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:43,000
This is what it looks like to me.

1514
00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:43,600
Oh, yeah.

1515
00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:44,280
Oh, yeah.

1516
00:51:44,460 --> 00:51:45,240
And here's proof.

1517
00:51:45,240 --> 00:51:46,060
And so we cut our foot.

1518
00:51:46,100 --> 00:51:48,000
We just say, hey, get lost, you guys.

1519
00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:49,140
The next thing you know, they're going out

1520
00:51:49,140 --> 00:51:49,540
of business.

1521
00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:51,820
Were we the sole supporter of this?

1522
00:51:51,820 --> 00:51:55,200
Were we this as the U.S. taxpayer,

1523
00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:58,700
the sole support for all these bogus agencies

1524
00:51:58,700 --> 00:52:00,220
and government operations?

1525
00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:04,300
Hey, Doge now has saved 151 billion dollars.

1526
00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:05,660
It's good news.

1527
00:52:07,420 --> 00:52:09,040
That's how you need to look at it.

1528
00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:10,500
150 billion dollars.

1529
00:52:11,020 --> 00:52:12,920
One billion or two.

1530
00:52:13,020 --> 00:52:13,860
Let's call it two billion.

1531
00:52:14,340 --> 00:52:18,140
So a little more than one percent funded

1532
00:52:18,140 --> 00:52:19,340
the entire WHO.

1533
00:52:19,340 --> 00:52:21,860
Just imagine what that 150 billion could be

1534
00:52:21,860 --> 00:52:22,980
funding, what kind of nonsense.

1535
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:27,260
And the outflows of that funding of nonsense

1536
00:52:27,260 --> 00:52:30,360
probably creates a lot more issues for people,

1537
00:52:30,460 --> 00:52:31,600
certainly in the United States.

1538
00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:33,240
But there's more.

1539
00:52:33,340 --> 00:52:35,380
Because now we have to keep on hammering

1540
00:52:35,380 --> 00:52:36,500
away at Bobby the op.

1541
00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:39,960
Misinformation about measles is spreading fast.

1542
00:52:40,140 --> 00:52:42,020
A new poll shows parents are nuts.

1543
00:52:42,020 --> 00:52:43,360
It's spreading like measles.

1544
00:52:43,700 --> 00:52:45,380
That measles, though, it's the misinformation.

1545
00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:46,120
Yes.

1546
00:52:46,240 --> 00:52:47,360
That's spreading fast.

1547
00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:49,540
But I like the way they they put

1548
00:52:49,540 --> 00:52:51,160
it together in such a way where it

1549
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:52,880
were in your brain.

1550
00:52:52,980 --> 00:52:55,300
It sounds like measles is spreading fast.

1551
00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:56,900
This is another one of these tricks we

1552
00:52:56,900 --> 00:52:57,760
keep finding.

1553
00:52:58,020 --> 00:53:01,720
It's good misinformation of measles is spreading fast.

1554
00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:02,360
It's fantastic.

1555
00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:04,600
If you chopped a sentence up, it just

1556
00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:06,520
says measles is spreading fast.

1557
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:07,480
It's great.

1558
00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:08,540
It's perfect.

1559
00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:11,940
Misinformation about measles is spreading fast.

1560
00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:14,260
A new poll shows parents are not sure

1561
00:53:14,260 --> 00:53:16,460
what to believe about the measles vaccine.

1562
00:53:16,460 --> 00:53:18,000
Health Secretary Robert F.

1563
00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:20,840
Kennedy, Jr. has amplified some misconceptions about a

1564
00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:23,480
link between the vaccine and the diagnosis.

1565
00:53:23,740 --> 00:53:24,840
That's another tricky word.

1566
00:53:24,980 --> 00:53:25,840
He has amplified.

1567
00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:29,660
Other people were saying, but he has amplified

1568
00:53:29,660 --> 00:53:31,240
it with his amp.

1569
00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:31,940
He's got an amp.

1570
00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:33,560
The guy can barely talk.

1571
00:53:33,820 --> 00:53:34,920
Health Secretary Robert F.

1572
00:53:34,980 --> 00:53:37,700
Kennedy, Jr. has amplified some misconceptions about a

1573
00:53:37,700 --> 00:53:40,780
link between the vaccine and the diagnosis of

1574
00:53:40,780 --> 00:53:41,360
autism.

1575
00:53:41,360 --> 00:53:43,880
An estimated six out of 10 adults have

1576
00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:46,320
heard a false claim about the measles vaccine.

1577
00:53:46,900 --> 00:53:49,360
Uncertainty has led some parents to delay or

1578
00:53:49,360 --> 00:53:51,880
skip getting their child vaccinated altogether.

1579
00:53:52,220 --> 00:53:55,260
There have been 800 confirmed measles cases across

1580
00:53:55,260 --> 00:53:57,360
24 states so far this year.

1581
00:53:57,420 --> 00:53:59,100
They forgot to mention how many dead.

1582
00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:01,600
So the memory is a funny thing.

1583
00:54:02,240 --> 00:54:06,680
We, I have been mentioning often about Robert

1584
00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:11,180
De Niro that he pulled a documentary from

1585
00:54:11,180 --> 00:54:12,720
his Tribeca Film Festival.

1586
00:54:13,340 --> 00:54:15,180
And I thought that he had created that

1587
00:54:15,180 --> 00:54:17,480
he was a documentary that he had created.

1588
00:54:18,300 --> 00:54:20,140
And I knew that he had an autistic

1589
00:54:20,140 --> 00:54:20,720
son.

1590
00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:23,240
And, you know, so I've been, in fact,

1591
00:54:23,540 --> 00:54:24,540
spouting misinformation.

1592
00:54:25,060 --> 00:54:26,800
It's much worse.

1593
00:54:27,780 --> 00:54:30,300
One of our producers sent me the OG

1594
00:54:30,300 --> 00:54:34,940
clip from, I think it's the NBC Today

1595
00:54:34,940 --> 00:54:38,000
show where De Niro and his co-founder

1596
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:42,140
of the Tribeca Film Festival, Rosenthal is her

1597
00:54:42,140 --> 00:54:44,620
name, where they came on to explain what

1598
00:54:44,620 --> 00:54:45,040
happened.

1599
00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:48,100
This, to think that this is Robert De

1600
00:54:48,100 --> 00:54:50,380
Niro, just keep that in your brain.

1601
00:54:50,420 --> 00:54:51,220
This is Robert De Niro.

1602
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:54,940
Now this is, I think this is 2015,

1603
00:54:55,380 --> 00:54:55,620
maybe.

1604
00:54:56,260 --> 00:54:57,900
It's at least 10 years old.

1605
00:54:57,980 --> 00:54:59,140
But listen to this.

1606
00:54:59,240 --> 00:55:00,140
Is this pre-Trump?

1607
00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:02,980
Oh, this is, it may even be older

1608
00:55:02,980 --> 00:55:03,640
than that.

1609
00:55:04,680 --> 00:55:06,360
Well, I mean, older than pre-Trump, do

1610
00:55:06,360 --> 00:55:06,460
you mean?

1611
00:55:06,460 --> 00:55:07,700
Oh, it's way older.

1612
00:55:07,820 --> 00:55:09,180
It's pre-Trump for sure.

1613
00:55:09,420 --> 00:55:10,700
Okay, pre-Trump is all we need.

1614
00:55:10,700 --> 00:55:12,000
Pre-Trump is all I need to know.

1615
00:55:12,180 --> 00:55:14,120
There was a bit of controversy, some headlines

1616
00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:16,760
at the beginning of this year's festival when

1617
00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:18,840
it was announced that this film called Vaxxed

1618
00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:20,220
would be screened at the festival.

1619
00:55:20,660 --> 00:55:22,420
Later, the festival pulled it.

1620
00:55:22,420 --> 00:55:24,580
Was it because of the backlash were you

1621
00:55:24,580 --> 00:55:27,260
surprised that people reacted the way that they

1622
00:55:27,260 --> 00:55:27,580
did?

1623
00:55:27,780 --> 00:55:29,000
I was shooting a movie.

1624
00:55:29,100 --> 00:55:30,240
I was in the middle of a lot

1625
00:55:30,240 --> 00:55:30,660
of stuff.

1626
00:55:31,140 --> 00:55:34,720
I think the movie is something that people

1627
00:55:34,720 --> 00:55:35,380
should see.

1628
00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:38,720
There was a backlash which I haven't fully

1629
00:55:38,720 --> 00:55:40,100
explored, and I will.

1630
00:55:40,840 --> 00:55:42,760
And I didn't want it to start affecting

1631
00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:45,960
the festival in ways that I couldn't see.

1632
00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:48,700
But definitely there's something to that movie.

1633
00:55:48,740 --> 00:55:51,120
And there's another movie called Trace Amounts.

1634
00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:54,400
And there's a lot of information about things

1635
00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:56,860
that are happening with the CDC, the pharmaceutical

1636
00:55:56,860 --> 00:55:57,560
companies.

1637
00:55:57,720 --> 00:55:58,980
There's a lot of things that are not

1638
00:55:58,980 --> 00:55:59,380
said.

1639
00:55:59,980 --> 00:56:01,560
I, as a parent of a child who

1640
00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:03,440
has autism, I'm concerned.

1641
00:56:03,800 --> 00:56:04,980
And I want to know the truth.

1642
00:56:05,040 --> 00:56:06,440
And I'm not anti-vaccine.

1643
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:08,300
I want safe vaccines.

1644
00:56:09,180 --> 00:56:12,060
Some people can't get a certain type of

1645
00:56:12,060 --> 00:56:14,820
shot, and they can die from it, even

1646
00:56:14,820 --> 00:56:15,460
penicillin.

1647
00:56:15,720 --> 00:56:17,440
So why should that not be with vaccine,

1648
00:56:17,580 --> 00:56:18,180
which it isn't?

1649
00:56:18,180 --> 00:56:21,340
So you went public for the first time

1650
00:56:21,340 --> 00:56:22,860
saying that your 18-year-old son does

1651
00:56:22,860 --> 00:56:23,420
have autism.

1652
00:56:23,420 --> 00:56:25,160
That had been a very private thing for

1653
00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:25,280
you.

1654
00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:26,560
And part of the reason you wanted this

1655
00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:28,600
film shown was to start that conversation.

1656
00:56:28,940 --> 00:56:29,300
Absolutely.

1657
00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:30,800
Do you believe you'll now have a role

1658
00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:32,000
in that conversation going forward?

1659
00:56:32,180 --> 00:56:32,760
Possibly, yes.

1660
00:56:32,880 --> 00:56:34,720
Because the thing is, if they shut it

1661
00:56:34,720 --> 00:56:36,140
down, there's no reason to.

1662
00:56:36,780 --> 00:56:38,400
If you're a scientist, let's see.

1663
00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:38,900
Let's hear.

1664
00:56:38,980 --> 00:56:40,920
Everybody doesn't seem to want to hear much

1665
00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:41,360
about it.

1666
00:56:41,620 --> 00:56:42,440
It's shut down.

1667
00:56:42,700 --> 00:56:44,040
And you guys are the ones that should

1668
00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:46,040
be the investigating, do the investigating.

1669
00:56:46,600 --> 00:56:48,520
So a couple things here.

1670
00:56:48,580 --> 00:56:50,860
One, the documentary called Vax.

1671
00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:52,880
That's a Del Bigtree documentary.

1672
00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:54,920
That was his first big breakthrough.

1673
00:56:55,660 --> 00:56:58,500
Del Bigtree, who, of course, produced The Doctors

1674
00:56:58,500 --> 00:57:00,040
and all these different shows.

1675
00:57:00,540 --> 00:57:02,440
And it's a great documentary.

1676
00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:04,020
So The Backlash.

1677
00:57:04,820 --> 00:57:06,740
Now, do you remember where The Backlash came

1678
00:57:06,740 --> 00:57:07,020
from?

1679
00:57:07,580 --> 00:57:07,880
No.

1680
00:57:08,260 --> 00:57:09,060
Neither did I.

1681
00:57:09,140 --> 00:57:11,980
But his co-founder of the festival, Rosenthal,

1682
00:57:12,100 --> 00:57:12,920
explains it.

1683
00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:15,280
I think the film was controversial because people

1684
00:57:15,280 --> 00:57:17,700
felt that the filmmaker had been discredited.

1685
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:19,960
Even he, I'm not so sure about.

1686
00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:21,460
At the end of the day, even him.

1687
00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:28,460
One thing, there weren't sponsors or donors that

1688
00:57:28,460 --> 00:57:30,080
were threatening to pull out of the film

1689
00:57:30,080 --> 00:57:30,380
festival.

1690
00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:31,460
It was our filmmakers.

1691
00:57:31,820 --> 00:57:34,740
And we're known for having amazing documentary films.

1692
00:57:35,300 --> 00:57:36,700
You can take a look at our lineup,

1693
00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:39,020
whether it's what we're starting with tonight or

1694
00:57:39,020 --> 00:57:43,160
some other documentaries that are equally controversial that

1695
00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:44,460
we have at the festival.

1696
00:57:44,780 --> 00:57:47,220
So it was our filmmakers that were pulling

1697
00:57:47,220 --> 00:57:47,400
out.

1698
00:57:47,740 --> 00:57:50,540
It was the filmmakers themselves who said, oh,

1699
00:57:50,540 --> 00:57:52,720
if you air that documentary, I'm pulling out.

1700
00:57:53,060 --> 00:57:55,280
I don't understand that at all.

1701
00:57:55,760 --> 00:57:57,660
Well, there should be more documentation of this.

1702
00:57:57,700 --> 00:57:59,760
Who were these filmmakers that were pulling out?

1703
00:57:59,880 --> 00:58:00,740
I'm glad you asked.

1704
00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:02,900
It's a beautiful film, but it's another thing.

1705
00:58:02,980 --> 00:58:04,700
It's the result of, it's not about, it's

1706
00:58:04,700 --> 00:58:08,220
not questioning how people, some people got autism,

1707
00:58:08,500 --> 00:58:12,080
how the vaccines are dangerous, if not given

1708
00:58:12,080 --> 00:58:14,040
a dangerous to certain people who are more

1709
00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:14,520
susceptible.

1710
00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:16,720
And they don't, nobody seems to want to

1711
00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:17,380
address that.

1712
00:58:17,420 --> 00:58:19,220
Or they say they've addressed it and it's

1713
00:58:19,220 --> 00:58:20,920
a closed issue, but it doesn't seem to

1714
00:58:20,920 --> 00:58:22,860
be because there are many people who will

1715
00:58:22,860 --> 00:58:24,340
come out and say, no, I saw my

1716
00:58:24,340 --> 00:58:25,660
kid change like overnight.

1717
00:58:25,980 --> 00:58:28,020
I saw what happened and I should have

1718
00:58:28,020 --> 00:58:29,500
done something and I didn't.

1719
00:58:29,940 --> 00:58:33,140
So there's more to this than meets the

1720
00:58:33,140 --> 00:58:33,800
eye, believe me.

1721
00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:35,720
Is that the experience you had, Robert?

1722
00:58:35,820 --> 00:58:36,800
Something changed overnight?

1723
00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:38,960
My wife says that.

1724
00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:42,140
I don't remember, but there was, my child

1725
00:58:42,140 --> 00:58:45,000
is autistic and every kid is different, but

1726
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:46,080
there is something there.

1727
00:58:46,140 --> 00:58:48,240
There's something there that people aren't addressing.

1728
00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:50,460
And for me to get so upset here

1729
00:58:50,460 --> 00:58:52,460
today on the Today Show with you guys

1730
00:58:52,460 --> 00:58:53,940
means there's something there.

1731
00:58:54,020 --> 00:58:55,440
That's all I wanted was the movie to

1732
00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:56,000
be seen.

1733
00:58:56,320 --> 00:58:58,500
People can make their own judgment, but you

1734
00:58:58,500 --> 00:58:59,140
must see it.

1735
00:58:59,140 --> 00:59:01,760
There are other films, other things that also

1736
00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:03,900
just document and show.

1737
00:59:04,340 --> 00:59:05,820
It's not such a simple thing.

1738
00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:09,400
I'm sorry, the answer to your question comes

1739
00:59:09,400 --> 00:59:10,320
in this final clip.

1740
00:59:10,740 --> 00:59:14,500
But please, don't you know, Mr. De Niro,

1741
00:59:14,840 --> 00:59:16,060
the science is in?

1742
00:59:16,180 --> 00:59:18,380
Robert, it is nearly consensus in the scientific

1743
00:59:18,380 --> 00:59:20,200
community that there's no link there.

1744
00:59:20,580 --> 00:59:21,620
Do you believe that's not true?

1745
00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:22,040
I don't.

1746
00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:24,160
I believe it's much more complicated than that.

1747
00:59:24,300 --> 00:59:26,100
It's much more complicated than that.

1748
00:59:26,100 --> 00:59:28,860
There is a link and they're saying there

1749
00:59:28,860 --> 00:59:29,220
isn't.

1750
00:59:29,340 --> 00:59:30,460
But there's certain things.

1751
00:59:30,680 --> 00:59:32,920
There's the obvious one is thimerosal, which is

1752
00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:35,280
a mercury-based preservative.

1753
00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:37,620
But there are other things there that I

1754
00:59:37,620 --> 00:59:37,940
don't know.

1755
00:59:37,980 --> 00:59:40,220
I'm not a scientist, but I know because

1756
00:59:40,220 --> 00:59:44,420
I've seen so much reaction about just let's

1757
00:59:44,420 --> 00:59:45,400
find out the truth.

1758
00:59:45,560 --> 00:59:47,440
Let's just find out the truth.

1759
00:59:47,980 --> 00:59:51,120
I'm not anti-vaccine, as I say, but

1760
00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:53,300
I'm pro-safe vaccine.

1761
00:59:53,300 --> 00:59:55,740
And there are some people who cannot take

1762
00:59:55,740 --> 00:59:58,900
a vaccine and they have to be found

1763
00:59:58,900 --> 01:00:01,460
out and warned that they just don't give

1764
01:00:01,460 --> 01:00:02,560
a kid a bunch of shots.

1765
01:00:03,020 --> 01:00:04,040
And then something happens.

1766
01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:06,580
Some parents, even in this document, they say,

1767
01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:08,380
I knew I shouldn't have done it.

1768
01:00:08,420 --> 01:00:09,440
I knew I shouldn't have done it.

1769
01:00:09,480 --> 01:00:11,020
I talked to the doctor and he's a

1770
01:00:11,020 --> 01:00:11,320
doctor.

1771
01:00:11,380 --> 01:00:12,080
I should listen.

1772
01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:12,740
I should listen.

1773
01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:14,900
I did it the next day.

1774
01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:17,060
Imagine how the parent feels.

1775
01:00:17,360 --> 01:00:19,900
The worry is that people who hear those

1776
01:00:19,900 --> 01:00:22,020
words and wonder about it will then not

1777
01:00:22,020 --> 01:00:24,420
have their child's vaccinated, which has led to

1778
01:00:24,420 --> 01:00:26,280
a higher incidence of things like mumps and

1779
01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:26,520
measles.

1780
01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:28,560
I don't know if those statistics are accurate.

1781
01:00:28,740 --> 01:00:29,940
I'm not the one to say, but I

1782
01:00:29,940 --> 01:00:31,080
would question even that.

1783
01:00:31,200 --> 01:00:32,920
There's a kind of a hysteria, the knee

1784
01:00:32,920 --> 01:00:33,560
-jerk reaction.

1785
01:00:34,040 --> 01:00:34,620
Let's see.

1786
01:00:34,980 --> 01:00:37,100
As I say, everyone should have the choice

1787
01:00:37,100 --> 01:00:38,020
to take vaccines.

1788
01:00:38,140 --> 01:00:40,200
Some places it's becoming mandatory, but it does

1789
01:00:40,200 --> 01:00:43,200
benefit the big drug companies, funnily enough.

1790
01:00:44,120 --> 01:00:44,640
Okay, sorry.

1791
01:00:44,740 --> 01:00:45,680
He didn't answer the question.

1792
01:00:45,860 --> 01:00:47,360
He said he didn't know who the filmmakers

1793
01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:47,580
were.

1794
01:00:47,580 --> 01:00:49,040
Well, I think it would be nice to

1795
01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:51,320
bring up the liability thing, which I think

1796
01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:51,540
could be.

1797
01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:56,060
Imagine De Niro saying that now, today.

1798
01:00:56,200 --> 01:00:58,020
People would lose their ever-loving minds.

1799
01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:00,760
Yes, well, he said it then and he

1800
01:01:00,760 --> 01:01:01,380
meant it then.

1801
01:01:01,520 --> 01:01:03,300
And then they showed him a picture and

1802
01:01:03,300 --> 01:01:04,780
he shut up real quick.

1803
01:01:05,780 --> 01:01:06,740
Something happened.

1804
01:01:06,940 --> 01:01:09,900
It's like, probably him and Jenny McCarthy.

1805
01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:12,820
I have a picture of two of them.

1806
01:01:13,840 --> 01:01:17,020
I have the autism update clip.

1807
01:01:18,340 --> 01:01:20,380
Okay, well, let's go.

1808
01:01:20,380 --> 01:01:23,300
National Institutes of Health Director Jay Bhattacharya says

1809
01:01:23,300 --> 01:01:25,860
the project that will study the causes of

1810
01:01:25,860 --> 01:01:28,860
autism will take longer than initially indicated.

1811
01:01:29,200 --> 01:01:31,700
NTT correspondent Jason Blair reports.

1812
01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:34,900
NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya says that the study

1813
01:01:34,900 --> 01:01:37,180
looking into the causes of autism will take

1814
01:01:37,180 --> 01:01:40,340
a little longer than the projected September date

1815
01:01:40,340 --> 01:01:42,440
by Secretary of Health Robert F.

1816
01:01:42,580 --> 01:01:45,520
Kennedy, Jr. Bhattacharya says that he thinks preliminary

1817
01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:48,000
results will be pulled out within a year.

1818
01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:51,260
The NIH will be leading the project that

1819
01:01:51,260 --> 01:01:53,640
is expected to be formally announced within two

1820
01:01:53,640 --> 01:01:53,960
weeks.

1821
01:01:54,300 --> 01:01:56,180
We're going to announce a series of new

1822
01:01:56,180 --> 01:02:01,620
studies to identify precisely what the environmental toxins

1823
01:02:01,620 --> 01:02:03,460
are that are causing it.

1824
01:02:03,660 --> 01:02:05,360
This has not been done before.

1825
01:02:05,540 --> 01:02:07,820
Bhattacharya says that he thinks to answer the

1826
01:02:07,820 --> 01:02:10,680
question of why autism is rising, there needs

1827
01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:12,820
to be large samples of people.

1828
01:02:12,820 --> 01:02:15,700
He says that they'd like to, quote, get

1829
01:02:15,700 --> 01:02:18,160
access to the medical records of a large

1830
01:02:18,160 --> 01:02:20,440
portion of the American population.

1831
01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:23,180
And these records would be a very important

1832
01:02:23,180 --> 01:02:24,040
part of the study.

1833
01:02:24,260 --> 01:02:27,560
Dr. Bhattacharya says the reason that autism is

1834
01:02:27,560 --> 01:02:29,760
rising is a question that is at the

1835
01:02:29,760 --> 01:02:31,860
front of the minds of so many parents

1836
01:02:31,860 --> 01:02:34,760
across the country worried about their kids.

1837
01:02:35,260 --> 01:02:38,380
And yet scientific progress on this has been

1838
01:02:38,380 --> 01:02:41,260
slow because scientists are frankly scared to ask

1839
01:02:41,260 --> 01:02:41,900
the question.

1840
01:02:41,900 --> 01:02:44,440
Bhattacharya said that the budget for the study

1841
01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:45,920
has not been set yet.

1842
01:02:46,300 --> 01:02:47,620
And health director Robert F.

1843
01:02:47,760 --> 01:02:50,380
Kennedy, Jr. says that the health department will

1844
01:02:50,380 --> 01:02:53,660
be restoring their Freedom of Information Act or

1845
01:02:53,660 --> 01:02:54,640
FOIA offices.

1846
01:02:54,860 --> 01:02:56,220
And we're going to try to get as

1847
01:02:56,220 --> 01:02:58,540
close as we can to total transparency.

1848
01:02:58,980 --> 01:03:01,680
The HHS told NTD sister media, The Epoch

1849
01:03:01,680 --> 01:03:04,580
Times, that these cuts were part of streamlining

1850
01:03:04,580 --> 01:03:08,140
operations and improving efficiency and that the FOIA

1851
01:03:08,140 --> 01:03:10,880
offices within the agency did not communicate with

1852
01:03:10,880 --> 01:03:13,300
each other or report to the department.

1853
01:03:13,380 --> 01:03:15,720
The papers that we produce in this agency

1854
01:03:15,720 --> 01:03:17,080
do not belong to us.

1855
01:03:17,640 --> 01:03:19,480
They belong to the American people.

1856
01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:20,960
Man.

1857
01:03:21,660 --> 01:03:24,540
So they had the FOIA offices weren't producing

1858
01:03:24,540 --> 01:03:26,680
any of the documents that people asked for.

1859
01:03:26,740 --> 01:03:27,920
Well, no, why would you?

1860
01:03:29,100 --> 01:03:31,520
The whole thing is, this is the most

1861
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:34,780
corrupt thing I've ever seen is the entire

1862
01:03:35,340 --> 01:03:37,180
Health and Human Services Division.

1863
01:03:37,180 --> 01:03:41,540
And the tentacles of the pharmaceutical companies.

1864
01:03:41,980 --> 01:03:45,040
Yeah, the whole thing's ridiculous.

1865
01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:46,340
Headline.

1866
01:03:46,440 --> 01:03:50,800
The top CDC vaccine safety officers records appear

1867
01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:51,680
to have gone missing.

1868
01:03:52,540 --> 01:03:52,920
How about that?

1869
01:03:53,800 --> 01:03:56,000
How about the records of the payments from

1870
01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:56,720
Big Pharma?

1871
01:03:57,440 --> 01:03:59,020
The pay stubs.

1872
01:03:59,560 --> 01:04:01,120
Oh, Bobby, the app was very busy.

1873
01:04:02,200 --> 01:04:04,320
This has also been a long time coming.

1874
01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:07,520
From cereal to snacks to juices and yogurt.

1875
01:04:07,860 --> 01:04:10,180
It's hard to shop for items that don't

1876
01:04:10,180 --> 01:04:11,880
contain artificial dyes.

1877
01:04:12,240 --> 01:04:13,800
When you've got mouths to feed.

1878
01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:16,800
You've got kids who are nice.

1879
01:04:17,120 --> 01:04:17,380
Nice.

1880
01:04:17,680 --> 01:04:17,980
Nat pop.

1881
01:04:18,080 --> 01:04:18,560
Did you catch that?

1882
01:04:18,920 --> 01:04:19,200
I like it.

1883
01:04:19,300 --> 01:04:22,080
Yeah, it's a great artificial dyes.

1884
01:04:22,520 --> 01:04:23,880
When you like you don't.

1885
01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:25,080
So listen to this report.

1886
01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:28,000
But when you have mouse defeats, mommy, you

1887
01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:30,020
don't care if there's poison in there.

1888
01:04:30,060 --> 01:04:31,120
You need to feed your kid because your

1889
01:04:31,120 --> 01:04:31,480
kid's gone.

1890
01:04:32,160 --> 01:04:35,460
Items that don't contain artificial dyes.

1891
01:04:35,780 --> 01:04:37,360
When you've got mouths to feed.

1892
01:04:38,200 --> 01:04:41,740
You've got kids who are potentially adversely affected.

1893
01:04:42,060 --> 01:04:44,220
Some of what prompted a big step Tuesday

1894
01:04:44,220 --> 01:04:47,340
to phase out the remaining eight synthetic dyes

1895
01:04:47,340 --> 01:04:49,560
from America's food supply by the end of

1896
01:04:49,560 --> 01:04:50,100
next year.

1897
01:04:50,140 --> 01:04:51,840
We're going to try to work with Congress

1898
01:04:51,840 --> 01:04:54,220
and the White House to make sure that

1899
01:04:54,220 --> 01:04:55,540
we have adequate labeling.

1900
01:04:55,960 --> 01:04:58,560
So mothers who go into the grocery stores

1901
01:04:58,560 --> 01:05:00,520
know what is good for their children and

1902
01:05:00,520 --> 01:05:01,140
what is not.

1903
01:05:01,140 --> 01:05:04,220
Health and Human Services Secretary R.F.K.,

1904
01:05:04,220 --> 01:05:07,420
Jr. and the FDA announcing a national standard

1905
01:05:07,420 --> 01:05:10,040
and timeline for the food industry to transition

1906
01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:13,500
from petroleum-based dyes to natural alternatives.

1907
01:05:13,780 --> 01:05:16,300
I didn't know that they were petroleum-based.

1908
01:05:17,040 --> 01:05:17,300
Yeah.

1909
01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:18,360
It's just oil.

1910
01:05:19,670 --> 01:05:23,040
You can do amazing things with crude oil.

1911
01:05:23,380 --> 01:05:23,860
Yeah.

1912
01:05:24,000 --> 01:05:26,900
Petroleum-based dyes to natural alternatives.

1913
01:05:26,900 --> 01:05:29,400
The FDA is starting the process to revoke

1914
01:05:29,400 --> 01:05:33,060
authorization for citrus red number two and orange

1915
01:05:33,060 --> 01:05:35,980
B in the coming months and authorizing four

1916
01:05:35,980 --> 01:05:39,060
new natural color additives in the coming weeks.

1917
01:05:39,200 --> 01:05:40,800
Do you know what the natural color additives

1918
01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:41,180
are?

1919
01:05:42,280 --> 01:05:43,940
A lot of it comes from beetles.

1920
01:05:45,520 --> 01:05:47,780
Well, that's not what the guy said.

1921
01:05:47,880 --> 01:05:48,360
Stand by.

1922
01:05:48,580 --> 01:05:50,780
For a lot of vegetables, a beet is

1923
01:05:50,780 --> 01:05:51,220
a good one.

1924
01:05:51,300 --> 01:05:52,020
Yeah, that's a good one.

1925
01:05:52,100 --> 01:05:53,220
Yeah, close, close.

1926
01:05:53,780 --> 01:05:54,960
In the coming weeks.

1927
01:05:54,960 --> 01:05:58,420
For companies that are currently using petroleum-based

1928
01:05:58,420 --> 01:06:01,120
red dye, try watermelon juice.

1929
01:06:01,400 --> 01:06:03,700
Yeah, watermelon juice.

1930
01:06:04,100 --> 01:06:05,320
Watermelon juice.

1931
01:06:05,520 --> 01:06:07,280
He has a little cup of watermelon juice,

1932
01:06:07,360 --> 01:06:08,500
all red and sappy.

1933
01:06:08,560 --> 01:06:11,340
Several dyes have been linked to behavioral issues

1934
01:06:11,340 --> 01:06:13,480
in children or have been shown to cause

1935
01:06:13,480 --> 01:06:16,040
cancer in mice, not yet in humans.

1936
01:06:16,360 --> 01:06:19,020
But other countries have already banned the additives.

1937
01:06:19,180 --> 01:06:21,180
The FDA is also partnering with the National

1938
01:06:21,180 --> 01:06:23,420
Institutes of Health to find out what those

1939
01:06:23,420 --> 01:06:25,100
dyes are really doing to children.

1940
01:06:25,660 --> 01:06:26,760
Yeah, nothing good.

1941
01:06:27,460 --> 01:06:28,800
No, a lot of the kids, there are

1942
01:06:28,800 --> 01:06:32,780
examples of kids that red dye number two,

1943
01:06:32,860 --> 01:06:33,800
I think is the one of them.

1944
01:06:33,940 --> 01:06:34,120
Yes.

1945
01:06:34,360 --> 01:06:36,260
It gets them all riled up for some

1946
01:06:36,260 --> 01:06:36,500
reason.

1947
01:06:37,020 --> 01:06:39,780
So there was a huge study published in

1948
01:06:39,780 --> 01:06:40,780
JAMA.

1949
01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:41,560
JAMA.

1950
01:06:42,500 --> 01:06:45,380
That's the Journal of American Medical Association.

1951
01:06:45,720 --> 01:06:47,320
I thought that should be in the RICO

1952
01:06:47,320 --> 01:06:47,680
deal.

1953
01:06:47,840 --> 01:06:48,840
What happened to that?

1954
01:06:49,020 --> 01:06:49,640
Well, I don't know.

1955
01:06:49,820 --> 01:06:50,140
Kennedy's promise.

1956
01:06:50,140 --> 01:06:51,480
Well, they published this.

1957
01:06:51,720 --> 01:06:54,640
And this was a study, population based study.

1958
01:06:55,500 --> 01:06:59,060
Now, this is Finnish citizens from the Finns,

1959
01:06:59,700 --> 01:07:04,280
born between January 1st, 1985 and December 31st,

1960
01:07:04,300 --> 01:07:08,700
1997, whose demographic, health and school information were

1961
01:07:08,700 --> 01:07:10,200
linked from nationwide registers.

1962
01:07:10,540 --> 01:07:13,500
So and they followed these kids up until

1963
01:07:13,500 --> 01:07:15,340
their 17th year.

1964
01:07:15,960 --> 01:07:18,940
And the question that they asked, the question

1965
01:07:18,940 --> 01:07:22,620
of this study was, is having peers with

1966
01:07:22,620 --> 01:07:25,180
a mental disorder in the same social network

1967
01:07:25,180 --> 01:07:28,680
during adolescence associated with later risk of mental

1968
01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:29,200
disorder?

1969
01:07:29,760 --> 01:07:32,920
And mental disorder, of course, is everything that

1970
01:07:32,920 --> 01:07:35,960
you can imagine it is, from ADHD to

1971
01:07:35,960 --> 01:07:38,760
eating disorders, to cutting, to all this stuff.

1972
01:07:39,460 --> 01:07:44,860
And so the findings, the very short conclusion,

1973
01:07:45,560 --> 01:07:48,360
yes, the findings say that mental disorders might,

1974
01:07:48,580 --> 01:07:49,660
I'll give it, I'll give that to it,

1975
01:07:49,660 --> 01:07:52,480
might be transmitted with adolescent peer networks.

1976
01:07:52,800 --> 01:07:54,220
And the only thing I can think as

1977
01:07:54,220 --> 01:07:56,800
I'm reading through the study is social networks.

1978
01:07:57,660 --> 01:08:01,200
This is this turbo charges, this contagion.

1979
01:08:02,020 --> 01:08:02,980
Social contagion.

1980
01:08:03,020 --> 01:08:04,320
Social contagion.

1981
01:08:04,540 --> 01:08:04,640
Yes.

1982
01:08:05,360 --> 01:08:07,260
Affects teenage girls more than anything.

1983
01:08:07,440 --> 01:08:07,880
Yes.

1984
01:08:07,880 --> 01:08:09,920
And so this is quite the study.

1985
01:08:10,060 --> 01:08:11,480
I mean, there's a lot of, you know,

1986
01:08:11,520 --> 01:08:13,120
this is pretty robust data.

1987
01:08:13,980 --> 01:08:14,900
And yes, there is.

1988
01:08:16,520 --> 01:08:18,979
Classmates diagnosed with a mental disorder in the

1989
01:08:18,979 --> 01:08:21,439
ninth grade of comprehensive school was associated with

1990
01:08:21,439 --> 01:08:24,939
increased risk of receiving a mental disorder diagnosis

1991
01:08:24,939 --> 01:08:25,899
later in life.

1992
01:08:26,420 --> 01:08:28,060
This would account for all the dancing.

1993
01:08:30,160 --> 01:08:32,200
I think it's more than dancing.

1994
01:08:32,319 --> 01:08:32,859
But yes.

1995
01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:34,279
Yes.

1996
01:08:35,240 --> 01:08:37,420
This is what social media is doing to

1997
01:08:37,420 --> 01:08:38,080
your kids.

1998
01:08:40,220 --> 01:08:41,620
Literally social networks.

1999
01:08:42,300 --> 01:08:43,720
And they weren't even, they didn't even have

2000
01:08:43,720 --> 01:08:45,700
social media when they were doing this.

2001
01:08:45,819 --> 01:08:47,279
They were, this was just kids hanging out.

2002
01:08:47,680 --> 01:08:49,380
Well, they should do the study again.

2003
01:08:49,520 --> 01:08:52,920
Oh, they'll never, they'll never let that happen.

2004
01:08:53,680 --> 01:08:55,580
But when they find out the truth of

2005
01:08:55,580 --> 01:08:58,180
that, oh, it's going to be so bad.

2006
01:09:00,250 --> 01:09:01,010
It's going to be bad.

2007
01:09:01,029 --> 01:09:02,670
Yeah, it'd be so bad for my clippage.

2008
01:09:03,590 --> 01:09:07,970
Oh, give us some examples of social contagion,

2009
01:09:08,050 --> 01:09:08,229
John.

2010
01:09:08,310 --> 01:09:11,050
Do you have any trans Maoism TikTok clips

2011
01:09:11,050 --> 01:09:11,430
to share?

2012
01:09:11,470 --> 01:09:14,330
Actually, I do have some trans Maoism TikTok

2013
01:09:14,330 --> 01:09:14,430
clips.

2014
01:09:14,590 --> 01:09:15,170
Okay, all right.

2015
01:09:15,290 --> 01:09:16,850
And I want to start with this one.

2016
01:09:16,930 --> 01:09:17,970
I got three clips.

2017
01:09:19,630 --> 01:09:22,029
And this is the one, let's start with

2018
01:09:22,029 --> 01:09:23,189
trans wisdom.

2019
01:09:23,370 --> 01:09:27,850
This is a very handsome looking girl giving

2020
01:09:27,850 --> 01:09:31,410
us some thoughts about where trans is really

2021
01:09:31,410 --> 01:09:31,729
headed.

2022
01:09:31,729 --> 01:09:33,970
Just so that we're all abundantly clear here,

2023
01:09:34,029 --> 01:09:35,890
not only are trans people sacred, they are

2024
01:09:35,890 --> 01:09:38,630
wildly, wildly evolved human beings.

2025
01:09:38,850 --> 01:09:40,609
I'm going to invite you to imagine for

2026
01:09:40,609 --> 01:09:43,210
a moment the amount of strength, courage, self

2027
01:09:43,210 --> 01:09:46,649
-knowing and profound self-development that is required

2028
01:09:47,170 --> 01:09:48,510
in order to walk through the world in

2029
01:09:48,510 --> 01:09:52,729
your authentic embodiment, knowing, knowing that most people

2030
01:09:52,729 --> 01:09:54,350
will deeply misunderstand you.

2031
01:09:54,650 --> 01:09:56,330
The average person will not walk through the

2032
01:09:56,330 --> 01:09:58,650
world in their authentic embodiment, knowing that even

2033
01:09:58,650 --> 01:10:00,530
one or two people in their circle will

2034
01:10:00,530 --> 01:10:01,410
misunderstand them.

2035
01:10:02,330 --> 01:10:05,090
From a psychological and a spiritual perspective, there

2036
01:10:05,090 --> 01:10:08,770
is absolutely, other than love, nothing more important

2037
01:10:08,770 --> 01:10:10,530
or more valuable than authenticity.

2038
01:10:10,770 --> 01:10:13,790
That's why we come here into human bodies.

2039
01:10:14,510 --> 01:10:18,470
We come here to self-actualize, to know

2040
01:10:18,470 --> 01:10:20,570
who we truly are and to live as

2041
01:10:20,570 --> 01:10:21,610
our authentic selves.

2042
01:10:21,790 --> 01:10:22,570
That's the whole point.

2043
01:10:23,390 --> 01:10:26,210
Trans people are wildly evolved.

2044
01:10:26,930 --> 01:10:29,230
And one day we will understand them as

2045
01:10:29,230 --> 01:10:31,450
wisdom keepers and we will bow at their

2046
01:10:31,450 --> 01:10:31,870
feet.

2047
01:10:32,150 --> 01:10:34,750
Wow, wow, wow.

2048
01:10:35,030 --> 01:10:36,030
All right, I'm going to give it to

2049
01:10:36,030 --> 01:10:36,130
you.

2050
01:10:36,150 --> 01:10:37,310
That was well worth it.

2051
01:10:39,430 --> 01:10:41,650
Wow, I did not expect that.

2052
01:10:41,770 --> 01:10:44,050
Well, it's interesting that, you know, to walk

2053
01:10:44,050 --> 01:10:47,630
boldly with your transness as who you are

2054
01:10:47,630 --> 01:10:50,690
spiritually as a person is completely okay, but

2055
01:10:50,690 --> 01:10:52,150
don't try that as a Christian.

2056
01:10:54,600 --> 01:10:55,100
Interesting.

2057
01:10:56,080 --> 01:10:59,600
Well, here's a good example of this kind

2058
01:10:59,600 --> 01:11:01,760
of wisdom that we're all going to bow

2059
01:11:01,760 --> 01:11:05,740
down to from a trans person.

2060
01:11:05,900 --> 01:11:07,640
And this is the misgendered clip.

2061
01:11:07,820 --> 01:11:11,360
I don't understand what is so hard about

2062
01:11:11,360 --> 01:11:14,680
correcting other people when they misgender others.

2063
01:11:14,980 --> 01:11:17,100
Like, it takes you like two seconds, but

2064
01:11:17,100 --> 01:11:18,440
you know what it takes for me to

2065
01:11:18,440 --> 01:11:19,680
have to constantly do that?

2066
01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:22,780
A lot of fucking unnecessary emotional labor that

2067
01:11:22,780 --> 01:11:24,540
I already have to take on on a

2068
01:11:24,540 --> 01:11:27,240
daily basis just to fucking exist and be

2069
01:11:27,240 --> 01:11:27,880
who I am.

2070
01:11:28,580 --> 01:11:30,820
But you don't have the energy to speak

2071
01:11:30,820 --> 01:11:32,820
up and say something on my behalf?

2072
01:11:33,400 --> 01:11:34,940
Oh, tell me she had to GoFundMe.

2073
01:11:35,500 --> 01:11:36,560
She needs to GoFundMe.

2074
01:11:39,780 --> 01:11:43,360
Well, let's take another level up to another

2075
01:11:43,360 --> 01:11:44,480
transgender person.

2076
01:11:44,500 --> 01:11:45,020
But wait, there's more.

2077
01:11:45,180 --> 01:11:45,740
There's more.

2078
01:11:46,540 --> 01:11:51,120
Who also would be, I guess, looking for

2079
01:11:51,120 --> 01:11:54,540
great spiritual wisdom from this person.

2080
01:11:55,000 --> 01:11:57,220
So I'm coming home from a bar.

2081
01:11:57,880 --> 01:12:01,380
And I was kissing this straight guy.

2082
01:12:02,180 --> 01:12:04,060
He wanted to take me to his house

2083
01:12:04,680 --> 01:12:06,940
because, you know, he really liked me.

2084
01:12:07,400 --> 01:12:09,880
And I told him I was on my

2085
01:12:09,880 --> 01:12:10,340
period.

2086
01:12:12,140 --> 01:12:13,680
But that's not true.

2087
01:12:15,100 --> 01:12:16,900
I don't get my period.

2088
01:12:17,600 --> 01:12:20,000
I just didn't want to tell them that

2089
01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:21,000
I was trans.

2090
01:12:21,560 --> 01:12:23,120
Oh, man.

2091
01:12:25,540 --> 01:12:27,940
So there's a kind of trans geniuses out

2092
01:12:27,940 --> 01:12:30,480
there that we have to bow down to.

2093
01:12:30,680 --> 01:12:31,740
They are going to bow down.

2094
01:12:32,020 --> 01:12:33,780
They'll be the leaders of the free world.

2095
01:12:34,080 --> 01:12:34,780
Their wisdom.

2096
01:12:35,120 --> 01:12:36,560
Yes, and they will be.

2097
01:12:38,380 --> 01:12:42,860
Well, probably the most email topic I received

2098
01:12:42,860 --> 01:12:43,860
over the past week.

2099
01:12:44,080 --> 01:12:45,600
I'm sure you can guess what it is.

2100
01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:48,740
No, I can't.

2101
01:12:48,800 --> 01:12:49,040
Oh.

2102
01:12:50,720 --> 01:12:52,420
Well, who's the next pope going to be,

2103
01:12:52,760 --> 01:12:52,860
Curry?

2104
01:12:52,960 --> 01:12:54,620
Come on, Curry, come on, Curry.

2105
01:12:55,080 --> 01:12:55,960
Who's the next pope?

2106
01:12:56,040 --> 01:12:57,120
You got to know who's the pope.

2107
01:12:57,240 --> 01:12:57,740
You're the one.

2108
01:12:58,300 --> 01:13:00,880
Well, this is, I didn't guess that.

2109
01:13:00,980 --> 01:13:03,560
I could have because, in fact, I was

2110
01:13:03,560 --> 01:13:04,540
going to bring it up.

2111
01:13:04,640 --> 01:13:05,980
I don't have it on my list, but

2112
01:13:05,980 --> 01:13:07,040
I was going to bring it up with

2113
01:13:07,040 --> 01:13:07,280
you.

2114
01:13:07,500 --> 01:13:09,640
Although we have a week or so.

2115
01:13:09,940 --> 01:13:10,180
Oh, no, no.

2116
01:13:10,260 --> 01:13:11,000
We have a couple more.

2117
01:13:11,060 --> 01:13:12,260
A couple of weeks, a couple of weeks.

2118
01:13:12,380 --> 01:13:12,920
A couple of weeks.

2119
01:13:13,020 --> 01:13:13,440
We got a couple.

2120
01:13:13,540 --> 01:13:15,000
Well, we have a week before you have

2121
01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:15,820
to make the prediction.

2122
01:13:16,080 --> 01:13:16,380
Yes.

2123
01:13:16,620 --> 01:13:17,840
Can't do it after the.

2124
01:13:18,480 --> 01:13:20,640
No, no, that would not be a prediction.

2125
01:13:20,820 --> 01:13:21,440
That would be lame.

2126
01:13:21,660 --> 01:13:22,700
No, that would not be good.

2127
01:13:22,960 --> 01:13:24,380
And it's a tough one for me.

2128
01:13:24,480 --> 01:13:27,100
But first, let's play some clips and see

2129
01:13:27,100 --> 01:13:28,140
if we can get some insight.

2130
01:13:28,820 --> 01:13:31,100
Francis is the next head of the Catholic

2131
01:13:31,100 --> 01:13:31,540
Church.

2132
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:34,080
A few names are already being mentioned.

2133
01:13:34,620 --> 01:13:37,700
First, the Vatican Secretary of State, 70-year

2134
01:13:37,700 --> 01:13:39,060
-old Pietro Parolin.

2135
01:13:39,460 --> 01:13:42,040
He's an experienced diplomat and seen as a

2136
01:13:42,040 --> 01:13:45,000
compromise candidate between progressives and conservatives.

2137
01:13:45,000 --> 01:13:49,100
Another Italian, Matteo Maria Zuppi, the Archbishop of

2138
01:13:49,100 --> 01:13:51,020
Bologna, is also a possibility.

2139
01:13:51,440 --> 01:13:54,300
Like Francis, the 69-year-old cardinal is

2140
01:13:54,300 --> 01:13:56,840
known for his social commitment to migrants and

2141
01:13:56,840 --> 01:13:59,260
the poor and cares little about pomp and

2142
01:13:59,260 --> 01:13:59,800
protocol.

2143
01:14:00,360 --> 01:14:03,560
Outside Europe, there's Cardinal Sergio de Rocha from

2144
01:14:03,560 --> 01:14:07,220
Brazil or Luis Antonio Tagli in the Philippines.

2145
01:14:07,780 --> 01:14:10,760
They will enter a conclave in a few

2146
01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:11,220
weeks.

2147
01:14:11,220 --> 01:14:15,120
Men who come from Ulaanbaatar, Lesotho, East Timor.

2148
01:14:15,420 --> 01:14:17,720
So truly from the four corners of the

2149
01:14:17,720 --> 01:14:20,180
world with concerns that will not be those

2150
01:14:20,180 --> 01:14:21,740
of the European heavyweights.

2151
01:14:22,180 --> 01:14:24,520
It's not just where the next pope comes

2152
01:14:24,520 --> 01:14:27,400
from but also what direction that pope takes

2153
01:14:27,400 --> 01:14:27,920
the church.

2154
01:14:28,240 --> 01:14:30,380
Could the keys be given to another progressive?

2155
01:14:30,880 --> 01:14:33,960
Jean-Marc Avelin, the Archbishop of Marseilles, shares

2156
01:14:33,960 --> 01:14:36,900
the same views on immigration and church relations

2157
01:14:36,900 --> 01:14:38,820
with other religions as Francis.

2158
01:14:38,820 --> 01:14:41,140
On the other hand, the College of Cardinals

2159
01:14:41,140 --> 01:14:43,820
could choose a more conservative leaning pope like

2160
01:14:43,820 --> 01:14:46,520
Robert Serra shown on the left or German

2161
01:14:46,520 --> 01:14:47,420
Gerhard Müller.

2162
01:14:47,800 --> 01:14:49,580
There's also politics at play.

2163
01:14:49,800 --> 01:14:52,160
We must not underestimate the influence of the

2164
01:14:52,160 --> 01:14:55,880
Catholic Church's very large financial sources which can

2165
01:14:55,880 --> 01:14:58,880
come also from the United States, from Africa

2166
01:14:58,880 --> 01:15:01,820
and elsewhere and which want to refocus the

2167
01:15:01,820 --> 01:15:02,160
church.

2168
01:15:02,580 --> 01:15:04,360
They want to get even with the pope

2169
01:15:04,360 --> 01:15:06,800
who wanted to decentralize his church and who

2170
01:15:06,800 --> 01:15:09,480
wanted a church that reflected the poorest and

2171
01:15:09,480 --> 01:15:10,160
those who suffer.

2172
01:15:10,560 --> 01:15:12,880
Whoever is selected, the choice of the future

2173
01:15:12,880 --> 01:15:14,960
pope will send a strong signal in a

2174
01:15:14,960 --> 01:15:17,500
context of growing tension within the church.

2175
01:15:18,020 --> 01:15:20,340
So there was a couple listed there.

2176
01:15:20,500 --> 01:15:22,940
The list is quite long of possibilities.

2177
01:15:23,280 --> 01:15:24,940
Thank you all for sending me all.

2178
01:15:25,200 --> 01:15:28,120
And by the way, the prophecy of the

2179
01:15:28,120 --> 01:15:29,640
last pope, that's a good one.

2180
01:15:30,720 --> 01:15:34,300
Oh man, it's like if it's Peter of

2181
01:15:34,300 --> 01:15:35,960
Rome, then this will be the last pope

2182
01:15:35,960 --> 01:15:37,480
and then the end times are here.

2183
01:15:38,380 --> 01:15:39,180
A lot of that.

2184
01:15:39,940 --> 01:15:45,000
No, the guy talking about Pietro Parolin.

2185
01:15:46,100 --> 01:15:47,680
What, of the last pope?

2186
01:15:47,700 --> 01:15:48,700
Is that going to be the last guy?

2187
01:15:48,720 --> 01:15:50,460
Because he's the Italian that's in the running.

2188
01:15:51,440 --> 01:15:56,940
Well, so the prophecy of the last pope.

2189
01:15:57,260 --> 01:15:58,260
Where did this come from?

2190
01:15:58,300 --> 01:16:00,100
Where did the prophecy of the last pope

2191
01:16:00,100 --> 01:16:00,920
appear?

2192
01:16:01,320 --> 01:16:04,020
Well, it appeared in my email a million

2193
01:16:04,020 --> 01:16:04,560
times.

2194
01:16:06,360 --> 01:16:08,520
It appeared in the email.

2195
01:16:08,660 --> 01:16:09,180
In the email.

2196
01:16:09,700 --> 01:16:10,480
Yeah, the prophecy.

2197
01:16:10,860 --> 01:16:11,240
Let me see.

2198
01:16:11,860 --> 01:16:13,480
It's the Malachi prophecy.

2199
01:16:13,800 --> 01:16:16,220
Saint Malachi, apparently.

2200
01:16:17,300 --> 01:16:18,280
Made prophet.

2201
01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:19,440
Apparently, yes.

2202
01:16:19,540 --> 01:16:20,860
We're just assuming.

2203
01:16:21,160 --> 01:16:23,300
Made prophecy of the end times by Roman

2204
01:16:23,300 --> 01:16:25,240
Catholic Archbishop Malachi.

2205
01:16:27,180 --> 01:16:29,940
You know, there's a whole theory behind it.

2206
01:16:29,980 --> 01:16:31,740
And I'm sorry, I just don't buy any

2207
01:16:31,740 --> 01:16:32,160
of that.

2208
01:16:32,720 --> 01:16:37,040
Now, actually, I will reveal my prediction today.

2209
01:16:37,540 --> 01:16:38,580
I might as well get it in early.

2210
01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:41,460
I have to say I'm very conflicted.

2211
01:16:41,760 --> 01:16:44,080
The last time I predicted the pope, I

2212
01:16:44,080 --> 01:16:45,580
was only politically minded.

2213
01:16:46,280 --> 01:16:47,740
And, you know, I was just looking at,

2214
01:16:47,820 --> 01:16:49,280
okay, Jesuit makes sense.

2215
01:16:49,280 --> 01:16:51,100
Yes, you're doing it the way we pick

2216
01:16:51,100 --> 01:16:51,860
soccer games.

2217
01:16:52,000 --> 01:16:52,980
Yes, exactly.

2218
01:16:53,180 --> 01:16:55,800
So, but I'm conflicted because, well, it was

2219
01:16:55,800 --> 01:16:58,100
this report that, at the end of the

2220
01:16:58,100 --> 01:16:59,860
report that gave me some pause to think

2221
01:16:59,860 --> 01:17:00,220
about it.

2222
01:17:00,220 --> 01:17:03,200
Because you would hope, me as a believer,

2223
01:17:03,760 --> 01:17:05,800
that God would have his hand on this

2224
01:17:05,800 --> 01:17:07,320
and that he would pick a good person.

2225
01:17:07,400 --> 01:17:08,300
Now, I'm not a Catholic.

2226
01:17:08,860 --> 01:17:10,840
And I have my questions about, you know,

2227
01:17:11,260 --> 01:17:12,840
is the pope really the guy that talks?

2228
01:17:12,860 --> 01:17:13,580
Please don't email.

2229
01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:15,540
Is the guy that, you know, he talks

2230
01:17:15,540 --> 01:17:15,860
to God.

2231
01:17:16,160 --> 01:17:16,820
AdamMcCree.com.

2232
01:17:17,280 --> 01:17:18,060
AdamMcCree.com.

2233
01:17:18,120 --> 01:17:19,080
I'm not going to answer it.

2234
01:17:19,420 --> 01:17:20,620
So I'm not a Catholic.

2235
01:17:20,800 --> 01:17:22,740
I just don't think that there's any guy

2236
01:17:22,740 --> 01:17:24,380
who's going to be bigger than anybody else.

2237
01:17:24,660 --> 01:17:26,500
But if that's your thing, that's fine.

2238
01:17:26,500 --> 01:17:30,540
People believe in John Smith and Mormon church,

2239
01:17:30,680 --> 01:17:30,900
whatever.

2240
01:17:31,080 --> 01:17:31,740
It's all good.

2241
01:17:32,040 --> 01:17:33,280
I got my own thing going.

2242
01:17:33,600 --> 01:17:34,920
I'm not a member of a religion.

2243
01:17:35,240 --> 01:17:38,620
But I do think there's a guy in

2244
01:17:38,620 --> 01:17:39,080
Africa.

2245
01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:41,760
And it was the first thing that came

2246
01:17:41,760 --> 01:17:42,340
to mind.

2247
01:17:42,840 --> 01:17:45,520
And I saw this report from Deutsche Welle.

2248
01:17:45,840 --> 01:17:48,980
Although he's not mentioned, interestingly enough, I think

2249
01:17:48,980 --> 01:17:50,140
I can give you my prediction.

2250
01:17:50,260 --> 01:17:50,900
Let's listen to this.

2251
01:17:51,160 --> 01:17:53,680
Pope Francis was seen by many Africans as

2252
01:17:53,680 --> 01:17:55,080
a champion of the continent.

2253
01:17:55,080 --> 01:17:58,920
Francis's anti-colonial stance and fierce criticism of

2254
01:17:58,920 --> 01:18:01,520
imperialism won him many fans there.

2255
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:05,140
Now, with his passing, many are asking if

2256
01:18:05,140 --> 01:18:07,420
it is time for the first African pope.

2257
01:18:07,780 --> 01:18:10,620
Some African contenders' names have been circulating, but

2258
01:18:10,620 --> 01:18:13,160
it remains unclear how much of a chance

2259
01:18:13,160 --> 01:18:14,400
they really have.

2260
01:18:14,680 --> 01:18:16,680
In the heart of the Kenyan capital of

2261
01:18:16,680 --> 01:18:19,780
Nairobi, hundreds of Catholics gathered to bid a

2262
01:18:19,780 --> 01:18:22,640
final farewell to a man who they felt

2263
01:18:22,640 --> 01:18:24,360
spoke out for Africa.

2264
01:18:24,360 --> 01:18:29,200
With his fierce criticism of imperialism, colonialism, and

2265
01:18:29,200 --> 01:18:33,000
global inequality, Pope Francis became a voice for

2266
01:18:33,000 --> 01:18:33,580
the continent.

2267
01:18:34,180 --> 01:18:36,240
He was the first Latin American pope.

2268
01:18:36,580 --> 01:18:39,440
Now many here feel that an African pope

2269
01:18:39,440 --> 01:18:42,200
is not a question of if, but when.

2270
01:18:42,520 --> 01:18:45,540
Among the African contenders for the papacy are

2271
01:18:45,540 --> 01:18:49,100
Cardinal Peter Turkson, who was Pope Benedict's peace

2272
01:18:49,100 --> 01:18:50,540
envoy to South Sudan.

2273
01:18:50,540 --> 01:18:54,720
He has spoken out against criminalizing homosexuality.

2274
01:18:55,120 --> 01:18:59,240
Another candidate is the archbishop of Kinshasa, Fridolen

2275
01:18:59,240 --> 01:19:02,920
Mbongo Besungu, a critic of global oil and

2276
01:19:02,920 --> 01:19:03,900
mining companies.

2277
01:19:04,180 --> 01:19:07,120
Both have the respect of Pope Francis, and

2278
01:19:07,120 --> 01:19:10,200
many hope that if elected, they would continue

2279
01:19:10,200 --> 01:19:10,900
his legacy.

2280
01:19:11,200 --> 01:19:13,820
But the final choice, according to millions of

2281
01:19:13,820 --> 01:19:16,780
Catholics, is not solely up to the cardinals.

2282
01:19:16,780 --> 01:19:20,120
What we believe is that the whole process

2283
01:19:20,120 --> 01:19:22,320
of electing a pope is not simply in

2284
01:19:22,320 --> 01:19:24,160
the hands of the cardinals who do it.

2285
01:19:24,520 --> 01:19:26,600
We believe that it is in the hands

2286
01:19:26,600 --> 01:19:28,680
of the Holy Spirit, that the Holy Spirit

2287
01:19:28,680 --> 01:19:31,860
moves and acts in the church in order

2288
01:19:31,860 --> 01:19:34,080
to provide us with the leader that we

2289
01:19:34,080 --> 01:19:35,820
need at any point in time.

2290
01:19:35,940 --> 01:19:38,440
The Vatican says that over the past year,

2291
01:19:38,820 --> 01:19:42,980
seven million Africans have converted to Catholicism, making

2292
01:19:42,980 --> 01:19:45,960
the continent one of the fastest growing regions

2293
01:19:45,960 --> 01:19:46,900
for the church.

2294
01:19:47,220 --> 01:19:50,520
Many in Africa believe Pope Francis was one

2295
01:19:50,520 --> 01:19:52,280
of the main reasons for this.

2296
01:19:52,580 --> 01:19:53,920
I don't think that's true.

2297
01:19:54,580 --> 01:19:56,800
A lot of Catholics don't like Pope Francis.

2298
01:19:57,340 --> 01:19:59,000
But the guy not mentioned is the guy

2299
01:19:59,000 --> 01:20:01,140
I'm going to predict, and it's been on

2300
01:20:01,140 --> 01:20:03,500
my heart, been on my mind, ever since

2301
01:20:03,500 --> 01:20:05,640
the first time I looked at the list.

2302
01:20:05,740 --> 01:20:06,540
Like, this is the guy.

2303
01:20:07,260 --> 01:20:08,900
I think I even mentioned on the show,

2304
01:20:08,960 --> 01:20:09,920
and you scoffed at me.

2305
01:20:10,720 --> 01:20:11,440
Because you said...

2306
01:20:11,440 --> 01:20:11,560
I probably would.

2307
01:20:11,740 --> 01:20:13,340
Yeah, that would sound like me.

2308
01:20:13,460 --> 01:20:13,680
Yes.

2309
01:20:14,020 --> 01:20:16,980
I believe it will be Cardinal Robert Sarrah,

2310
01:20:17,380 --> 01:20:19,540
or Sarah, S-A-R-R-A-H.

2311
01:20:20,160 --> 01:20:23,520
He's from Guinea, which is West Africa.

2312
01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:28,140
And he's almost 80, so not a big

2313
01:20:28,140 --> 01:20:28,440
risk.

2314
01:20:28,520 --> 01:20:28,680
No, that's good.

2315
01:20:28,760 --> 01:20:29,540
Not a big risk.

2316
01:20:29,840 --> 01:20:30,580
That's good.

2317
01:20:30,640 --> 01:20:31,380
Not a big risk.

2318
01:20:31,520 --> 01:20:31,780
You want that.

2319
01:20:33,680 --> 01:20:34,800
He's outspoken.

2320
01:20:35,220 --> 01:20:35,760
He's funny.

2321
01:20:35,760 --> 01:20:42,500
He speaks Italian, English, French, and Guinea Spanish.

2322
01:20:43,220 --> 01:20:45,640
So French, English, Spanish, and Italian fluently.

2323
01:20:47,000 --> 01:20:49,120
He is against...

2324
01:20:49,760 --> 01:20:55,740
He called gender ideology a radicalization that threatens

2325
01:20:55,740 --> 01:20:56,380
the family.

2326
01:20:57,760 --> 01:20:58,880
That's Robert Sarrah?

2327
01:20:59,020 --> 01:21:00,060
Yes, Robert Sarrah.

2328
01:21:00,080 --> 01:21:01,220
S-A-R-R-A-H.

2329
01:21:01,340 --> 01:21:02,460
Yes, Robert Sarrah.

2330
01:21:02,820 --> 01:21:04,660
He is going to be my prediction for

2331
01:21:04,660 --> 01:21:04,900
Pope.

2332
01:21:05,540 --> 01:21:05,840
Okay.

2333
01:21:06,300 --> 01:21:09,520
Well, I have the list of the next

2334
01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:09,880
Pope.

2335
01:21:10,100 --> 01:21:12,720
I talked about this on the DHM plug

2336
01:21:12,720 --> 01:21:13,560
show you didn't listen to.

2337
01:21:13,740 --> 01:21:14,380
No, I'm sorry.

2338
01:21:14,580 --> 01:21:16,400
I will, though, because I've got to hear

2339
01:21:16,400 --> 01:21:19,360
what Horowitz said so I can lash out.

2340
01:21:19,580 --> 01:21:22,880
This is the list that I receive, because

2341
01:21:22,880 --> 01:21:24,660
I'm on mailing lists that you can't believe,

2342
01:21:24,880 --> 01:21:26,300
the oddspr.com.

2343
01:21:26,420 --> 01:21:27,240
I believe it.

2344
01:21:27,380 --> 01:21:29,260
I believe you're on the mailing list.

2345
01:21:29,600 --> 01:21:31,100
The Pope mailing list, yes.

2346
01:21:31,240 --> 01:21:33,480
It fires up once every 40 years.

2347
01:21:33,680 --> 01:21:34,360
It's a great list.

2348
01:21:34,360 --> 01:21:36,940
This is the list in order of the

2349
01:21:36,940 --> 01:21:37,760
next Pope.

2350
01:21:38,360 --> 01:21:38,520
Odds.

2351
01:21:39,020 --> 01:21:39,460
Odds.

2352
01:21:39,540 --> 01:21:40,400
Oh, I have odds.

2353
01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:41,200
Okay.

2354
01:21:42,000 --> 01:21:46,600
The even bet is Louis Tagli, the Filipino.

2355
01:21:47,440 --> 01:21:49,440
Yes, I would say I understand why they're

2356
01:21:49,440 --> 01:21:50,520
saying he's a possibility.

2357
01:21:50,740 --> 01:21:53,200
Number two pick on the list, two to

2358
01:21:53,200 --> 01:21:58,540
one odds, is Pietro Apparolin, the Italian guy

2359
01:21:58,540 --> 01:22:01,520
who is the diplomat.

2360
01:22:01,540 --> 01:22:02,880
Yeah, he would be the last Pope.

2361
01:22:03,000 --> 01:22:04,200
That would be the one everyone chooses.

2362
01:22:04,200 --> 01:22:08,100
That I would pick if I was picking

2363
01:22:08,100 --> 01:22:08,860
Popes.

2364
01:22:08,900 --> 01:22:10,300
But you're not picking Popes.

2365
01:22:10,480 --> 01:22:11,380
No, I'm not.

2366
01:22:11,460 --> 01:22:12,860
I'm obviously not picking Popes.

2367
01:22:13,000 --> 01:22:13,720
I'm the Pope picker.

2368
01:22:16,460 --> 01:22:18,560
And Horowitz even said that he'd bet on

2369
01:22:18,560 --> 01:22:20,960
this guy, because about time we went back

2370
01:22:20,960 --> 01:22:22,940
to the Italians being the Pope, but okay.

2371
01:22:23,580 --> 01:22:25,100
Let's assume that's not going to happen.

2372
01:22:25,480 --> 01:22:27,580
It falls off rather quickly after that.

2373
01:22:29,220 --> 01:22:31,900
Matteo Zuppi comes in at six to one

2374
01:22:31,900 --> 01:22:34,960
odds, and then a couple six to one,

2375
01:22:35,020 --> 01:22:36,160
six to one, six to one.

2376
01:22:36,460 --> 01:22:39,720
Then we get to Mark Ouellette, ten to

2377
01:22:39,720 --> 01:22:39,980
one.

2378
01:22:40,080 --> 01:22:42,480
And your man, Robert Serra, is on the

2379
01:22:42,480 --> 01:22:42,800
list.

2380
01:22:42,960 --> 01:22:43,580
Oh, he's there.

2381
01:22:43,740 --> 01:22:44,660
He's on the list.

2382
01:22:44,900 --> 01:22:46,540
Not in the media reports, but he's on

2383
01:22:46,540 --> 01:22:46,960
the list.

2384
01:22:47,820 --> 01:22:49,280
He's on the list at ten to one.

2385
01:22:49,940 --> 01:22:50,740
Ten to one.

2386
01:22:51,120 --> 01:22:51,640
Place your bets.

2387
01:22:51,640 --> 01:22:53,920
So it's not a long shot by any

2388
01:22:53,920 --> 01:22:54,120
means.

2389
01:22:54,120 --> 01:22:58,720
It goes up to guys like Malcolm Raniff

2390
01:22:58,720 --> 01:22:59,920
at 25 to one.

2391
01:23:00,040 --> 01:23:00,820
There's a whole bunch of them.

2392
01:23:00,840 --> 01:23:04,940
Fifty to one for Blaro Tisi and Blaro

2393
01:23:04,940 --> 01:23:06,140
with an O.

2394
01:23:06,820 --> 01:23:08,960
Wilfred Napier is 50 to one.

2395
01:23:09,420 --> 01:23:13,060
Mario Placenza is 50.

2396
01:23:13,120 --> 01:23:13,740
There's a lot of these.

2397
01:23:14,040 --> 01:23:14,880
So he's ten to one.

2398
01:23:14,980 --> 01:23:18,200
So he's not a complete dark horse that

2399
01:23:18,200 --> 01:23:18,660
you picked.

2400
01:23:18,820 --> 01:23:20,820
And it's interesting that you picked him at

2401
01:23:20,820 --> 01:23:21,060
all.

2402
01:23:21,800 --> 01:23:23,580
Well, you know, I think that they want,

2403
01:23:23,780 --> 01:23:25,880
hey, let's get a Schwarze in there.

2404
01:23:26,040 --> 01:23:28,640
I like the idea of, I like the

2405
01:23:28,640 --> 01:23:30,600
basic thing because he's so old.

2406
01:23:30,760 --> 01:23:31,040
Yes.

2407
01:23:31,600 --> 01:23:34,500
We bring our token black guy and finally

2408
01:23:34,500 --> 01:23:36,600
bring a black guy who's going to die

2409
01:23:36,600 --> 01:23:37,200
any minute.

2410
01:23:38,280 --> 01:23:40,440
And that is the way the church would

2411
01:23:40,440 --> 01:23:40,880
think.

2412
01:23:41,260 --> 01:23:41,560
Yeah.

2413
01:23:41,840 --> 01:23:42,040
Yeah.

2414
01:23:42,360 --> 01:23:43,260
Smart money.

2415
01:23:43,540 --> 01:23:46,880
Because after that Polish guy, they are very

2416
01:23:46,880 --> 01:23:47,340
leery.

2417
01:23:47,580 --> 01:23:47,780
Yeah.

2418
01:23:47,880 --> 01:23:49,480
We don't want anyone hanging around too long.

2419
01:23:49,480 --> 01:23:52,440
I was around too long.

2420
01:23:52,460 --> 01:23:53,840
We like the conclave thing.

2421
01:23:53,920 --> 01:23:54,740
It's a lot of fun.

2422
01:23:54,840 --> 01:23:55,600
We get good food.

2423
01:23:56,320 --> 01:23:56,420
Yeah.

2424
01:23:56,460 --> 01:23:59,260
And just in case you were wondering, thank

2425
01:23:59,260 --> 01:24:00,300
you, Euronews.

2426
01:24:00,440 --> 01:24:02,400
No, it's fake news.

2427
01:24:03,160 --> 01:24:05,040
J.D. Vance did not kill the Pope.

2428
01:24:05,200 --> 01:24:07,640
In the wake of Pope Francis' death, tributes

2429
01:24:07,640 --> 01:24:09,980
have been flooding social media, including from U

2430
01:24:09,980 --> 01:24:12,600
.S. Vice President J.D. Vance, having been

2431
01:24:12,600 --> 01:24:14,820
one of the last people to hold an

2432
01:24:14,820 --> 01:24:17,000
audience with Pope Francis before his death.

2433
01:24:17,000 --> 01:24:19,380
J.D. Vance wrote on X, I just

2434
01:24:19,380 --> 01:24:21,180
learned of the passing of Pope Francis.

2435
01:24:21,720 --> 01:24:24,020
I was happy to see him yesterday, although

2436
01:24:24,020 --> 01:24:25,940
he was obviously very ill.

2437
01:24:26,360 --> 01:24:28,460
Due to the timing of this meeting, many

2438
01:24:28,460 --> 01:24:31,520
were the jokes turned to conspiracy theories that

2439
01:24:31,520 --> 01:24:34,460
this meeting has sparked, claiming that J.D.

2440
01:24:34,480 --> 01:24:36,820
Vance killed Pope Francis.

2441
01:24:37,200 --> 01:24:40,620
Others claiming, can you meet with Putin next?

2442
01:24:41,040 --> 01:24:43,760
Amplifying these jokes was none other than JF

2443
01:24:43,760 --> 01:24:46,420
Kennedy's grandson, Jack Schlossberg.

2444
01:24:46,420 --> 01:24:49,500
He writes a similar claim on X, saying,

2445
01:24:50,260 --> 01:24:53,280
OK, J.D. killed the Pope, as he

2446
01:24:53,280 --> 01:24:55,820
also posted this image on Instagram with the

2447
01:24:55,820 --> 01:24:58,160
caption that reads, What did J.D. do?

2448
01:24:58,280 --> 01:25:00,660
VP of Little Faith meets with Pope yesterday.

2449
01:25:01,160 --> 01:25:02,760
Today, Pope dies.

2450
01:25:03,060 --> 01:25:05,320
So not much debunking to do here, needed

2451
01:25:05,320 --> 01:25:05,940
on this one.

2452
01:25:06,040 --> 01:25:06,940
These are fake claims.

2453
01:25:07,080 --> 01:25:09,640
The Vatican reports there was no foul play.

2454
01:25:09,840 --> 01:25:12,000
Pope Francis had been ill, admitted to a

2455
01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:15,160
Rome hospital on February 14th for life-threatening

2456
01:25:15,160 --> 01:25:15,700
pneumonia.

2457
01:25:16,300 --> 01:25:18,900
Where he was, although he was able to

2458
01:25:18,900 --> 01:25:21,260
hang on to one final Easter as he

2459
01:25:21,260 --> 01:25:23,620
delighted the crowds at the Vatican with a

2460
01:25:23,620 --> 01:25:26,440
surprise Easter blessing on Sunday and what is

2461
01:25:26,440 --> 01:25:29,660
now known as his final public appearance.

2462
01:25:29,780 --> 01:25:31,360
I love that they spend so much time

2463
01:25:31,360 --> 01:25:31,700
on that.

2464
01:25:31,720 --> 01:25:32,780
How did they do that?

2465
01:25:32,840 --> 01:25:33,300
How do they get?

2466
01:25:33,740 --> 01:25:36,020
Who is the editor of this operation?

2467
01:25:36,160 --> 01:25:37,280
This is not a story.

2468
01:25:37,340 --> 01:25:39,120
This is a bogus story.

2469
01:25:39,260 --> 01:25:41,760
She had a big smart board and she

2470
01:25:41,760 --> 01:25:43,940
was showing, you know, swiping up these tweets

2471
01:25:43,940 --> 01:25:46,360
and putting big X's on it.

2472
01:25:46,620 --> 01:25:48,300
And oh, yeah, it's called Verify.

2473
01:25:48,860 --> 01:25:50,760
It's the Verify segment.

2474
01:25:51,780 --> 01:25:54,060
Oh, they got that from French 24.

2475
01:25:54,220 --> 01:25:54,740
We had that.

2476
01:25:54,860 --> 01:25:56,380
I used to play a couple of clips

2477
01:25:56,380 --> 01:25:57,000
from that myself.

2478
01:25:57,320 --> 01:25:58,960
The BBC has a whole show that does

2479
01:25:58,960 --> 01:25:59,400
it now.

2480
01:25:59,580 --> 01:26:02,940
It's like misinformation, debunking everything.

2481
01:26:03,240 --> 01:26:05,100
By the way, right on cue.

2482
01:26:05,260 --> 01:26:05,580
Amazing.

2483
01:26:05,880 --> 01:26:08,600
Once again, ladies and gentlemen, the season of

2484
01:26:08,600 --> 01:26:09,260
reveal.

2485
01:26:09,790 --> 01:26:12,680
She stayed silent for over 30 years.

2486
01:26:13,100 --> 01:26:15,780
Now, Hélène Perlon, daughter of French Prime Minister

2487
01:26:15,780 --> 01:26:18,460
François Bayrou, is speaking out.

2488
01:26:18,860 --> 01:26:21,760
In an interview with Perimatch magazine, she reveals

2489
01:26:21,760 --> 01:26:24,360
she was a victim of physical violence by

2490
01:26:24,360 --> 01:26:27,060
a priest at a Catholic school summer camp.

2491
01:26:27,420 --> 01:26:29,940
One evening while we were unpacking our sleeping

2492
01:26:29,940 --> 01:26:32,380
bags, he suddenly grabbed me by the hair.

2493
01:26:32,760 --> 01:26:34,660
He dragged me along the ground for several

2494
01:26:34,660 --> 01:26:37,020
meters and punched and kicked me all over

2495
01:26:37,020 --> 01:26:39,180
my body, especially in the stomach.

2496
01:26:39,580 --> 01:26:42,460
Perlon was 14 years old at the time.

2497
01:26:42,860 --> 01:26:45,140
She claims she said nothing to her father

2498
01:26:45,140 --> 01:26:47,840
to protect him from political repercussions.

2499
01:26:48,360 --> 01:26:50,780
This former student was in the same class

2500
01:26:50,780 --> 01:26:53,420
as François Bayrou's son, the victim's brother.

2501
01:26:53,700 --> 01:26:55,940
He encouraged her to speak out to no

2502
01:26:55,940 --> 01:26:56,360
avail.

2503
01:26:57,160 --> 01:26:59,620
I think that because children's voices weren't listened

2504
01:26:59,620 --> 01:27:01,240
to at the time, she wasn't able to

2505
01:27:01,240 --> 01:27:02,360
express herself at home.

2506
01:27:02,560 --> 01:27:04,140
She may have wanted to protect her father

2507
01:27:04,140 --> 01:27:07,020
too, but perhaps François Bayrou wasn't very present

2508
01:27:07,020 --> 01:27:08,680
at home due to his political duties.

2509
01:27:08,940 --> 01:27:10,520
And as a child, she wanted to protect

2510
01:27:10,520 --> 01:27:11,100
her father.

2511
01:27:11,660 --> 01:27:14,880
On May 14th, François Bayrou is set to

2512
01:27:14,880 --> 01:27:18,940
testify before a parliamentary commission investigating abuse in

2513
01:27:18,940 --> 01:27:21,500
the Catholic congregation that ran the summer camp.

2514
01:27:21,980 --> 01:27:24,180
Bayrou says he had no knowledge of the

2515
01:27:24,180 --> 01:27:28,100
physical and sexual assaults reported by 200 former

2516
01:27:28,100 --> 01:27:31,000
students of the congregation's Notre-Dame-de-Bétrame

2517
01:27:31,000 --> 01:27:31,620
school.

2518
01:27:31,620 --> 01:27:33,600
Talk about burying the lead.

2519
01:27:33,960 --> 01:27:36,060
200, 200.

2520
01:27:36,360 --> 01:27:37,820
It was burying the lead.

2521
01:27:38,120 --> 01:27:38,220
My gosh.

2522
01:27:38,220 --> 01:27:40,320
That's really with the very end.

2523
01:27:40,400 --> 01:27:40,860
My God.

2524
01:27:41,200 --> 01:27:44,520
You know, Pope Sarah, he'll take care of

2525
01:27:44,520 --> 01:27:45,260
all that nonsense.

2526
01:27:45,560 --> 01:27:46,560
He'll clean all that out.

2527
01:27:46,660 --> 01:27:47,600
What's he got to lose?

2528
01:27:48,620 --> 01:27:49,780
He's from a different continent.

2529
01:27:49,920 --> 01:27:51,660
He's got millions of Africans behind him.

2530
01:27:51,840 --> 01:27:53,540
It'll lift up all of Africa.

2531
01:27:58,020 --> 01:28:01,360
Yeah, another, not a death, but resignation, of

2532
01:28:01,360 --> 01:28:01,600
course.

2533
01:28:01,600 --> 01:28:03,040
We need to just discuss this.

2534
01:28:03,160 --> 01:28:05,520
Klaus Schwab stepping down as...

2535
01:28:05,520 --> 01:28:05,780
Oh, yes.

2536
01:28:05,860 --> 01:28:07,560
I don't have any clips on this, but

2537
01:28:07,560 --> 01:28:09,120
yes, this I thought was fundamental.

2538
01:28:09,360 --> 01:28:13,500
Well, I don't have clips, but apparently there's

2539
01:28:13,500 --> 01:28:17,760
a report that Schwab stepped down after the

2540
01:28:17,760 --> 01:28:23,160
World Economic Forum's board of trustees called for

2541
01:28:23,160 --> 01:28:26,660
his resignation internally because of all kinds of

2542
01:28:26,660 --> 01:28:27,100
corruption.

2543
01:28:28,820 --> 01:28:29,300
Corruption.

2544
01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:32,200
You take one look at that guy, you

2545
01:28:32,200 --> 01:28:33,500
don't think of corruption.

2546
01:28:34,020 --> 01:28:35,820
Financial and ethical misconduct.

2547
01:28:36,580 --> 01:28:38,240
So there's a letter apparently floating out there

2548
01:28:38,240 --> 01:28:41,060
that Schwab used the organization's funds for personal

2549
01:28:41,060 --> 01:28:44,780
expenses, instructed junior staff to withdraw cash for

2550
01:28:44,780 --> 01:28:50,220
private use, including massages, during official trips.

2551
01:28:50,880 --> 01:28:52,160
I need a massage.

2552
01:28:53,100 --> 01:28:53,980
Get one of those.

2553
01:28:54,340 --> 01:28:57,360
It's not like he's buying fleets of Rolls

2554
01:28:57,360 --> 01:28:57,920
Royces.

2555
01:28:58,540 --> 01:29:03,660
Also alleged that Hilde, his wife, used WEF

2556
01:29:03,660 --> 01:29:07,000
money for luxury hotel stays during personal trips.

2557
01:29:07,480 --> 01:29:08,340
Well, that's what you do.

2558
01:29:09,340 --> 01:29:10,100
That's what you do.

2559
01:29:10,220 --> 01:29:11,020
That's what you do.

2560
01:29:11,900 --> 01:29:13,940
I had a company credit card.

2561
01:29:14,000 --> 01:29:15,340
I used to take you out to expensive

2562
01:29:15,340 --> 01:29:16,400
lunches all the time.

2563
01:29:18,400 --> 01:29:19,600
Yeah, that's what you do.

2564
01:29:19,700 --> 01:29:19,920
Yeah.

2565
01:29:20,280 --> 01:29:21,680
You had a company credit card.

2566
01:29:21,760 --> 01:29:22,780
Yeah, that's what you do.

2567
01:29:22,780 --> 01:29:25,920
And which had on it, no sweat off

2568
01:29:25,920 --> 01:29:28,640
my balls, written right on there.

2569
01:29:28,680 --> 01:29:29,700
I thought that was, I don't know how

2570
01:29:29,700 --> 01:29:30,420
you manage that.

2571
01:29:32,220 --> 01:29:34,200
I don't recall that, but I'll take it

2572
01:29:34,200 --> 01:29:35,980
as gospel from you any day.

2573
01:29:37,980 --> 01:29:38,980
Yes, that's what you do.

2574
01:29:39,060 --> 01:29:39,720
But he's gone.

2575
01:29:39,960 --> 01:29:41,060
Ding dong, the witch is dead.

2576
01:29:41,420 --> 01:29:43,100
I think that breaks the whole organization.

2577
01:29:43,260 --> 01:29:45,020
Without Schwab, it's not fun to make fun,

2578
01:29:45,100 --> 01:29:47,540
unless they get a real good guy, you

2579
01:29:47,540 --> 01:29:50,540
know, bad and other like evil person to

2580
01:29:50,540 --> 01:29:51,020
step in.

2581
01:29:51,100 --> 01:29:53,400
But I haven't seen anyone who even comes

2582
01:29:53,400 --> 01:29:54,840
close to what Schwab was.

2583
01:29:55,920 --> 01:29:56,920
David Hogg.

2584
01:29:56,920 --> 01:29:58,060
Now, that would be awesome.

2585
01:29:58,820 --> 01:29:59,640
That would be awesome.

2586
01:29:59,780 --> 01:30:01,000
That would be fantastic.

2587
01:30:01,660 --> 01:30:03,880
Yeah, we can only hope for that.

2588
01:30:05,720 --> 01:30:07,080
You got anything else before we take a

2589
01:30:07,080 --> 01:30:07,520
break here?

2590
01:30:08,460 --> 01:30:10,360
Some pre-break stuff.

2591
01:30:10,740 --> 01:30:11,160
Pre-break stuff.

2592
01:30:11,300 --> 01:30:12,300
It can be anything.

2593
01:30:12,820 --> 01:30:14,100
The floor is yours.

2594
01:30:14,100 --> 01:30:16,760
I yield the remainder of my time to

2595
01:30:16,760 --> 01:30:18,660
the distinguished gentleman from Berkeley.

2596
01:30:20,400 --> 01:30:22,060
Well, there's a couple of things.

2597
01:30:22,380 --> 01:30:25,360
This is just a short clip, but it's

2598
01:30:25,360 --> 01:30:26,040
worth playing.

2599
01:30:26,140 --> 01:30:30,260
This is the EU doing its thing and

2600
01:30:30,260 --> 01:30:34,020
gouging Apple and Meta just for no good

2601
01:30:34,020 --> 01:30:34,400
reason.

2602
01:30:34,720 --> 01:30:38,480
The European Commission fined Apple $570 million and

2603
01:30:38,480 --> 01:30:40,900
Meta nearly $230 million.

2604
01:30:40,900 --> 01:30:43,480
It comes after a ruling that both companies

2605
01:30:43,480 --> 01:30:46,360
had restricted customer choices and violated the European

2606
01:30:46,360 --> 01:30:48,180
Union's Digital Markets Act.

2607
01:30:48,620 --> 01:30:51,700
Member of European Parliament, Andreas Schwab, said European

2608
01:30:51,700 --> 01:30:54,380
law is becoming very costly for companies that

2609
01:30:54,380 --> 01:30:55,180
don't obey it.

2610
01:30:55,380 --> 01:30:56,760
The message is very clear.

2611
01:30:57,120 --> 01:30:58,420
Competition matters.

2612
01:30:59,020 --> 01:31:01,640
Open societies need open markets.

2613
01:31:02,200 --> 01:31:04,800
That's an important message for Europe, but also

2614
01:31:04,800 --> 01:31:05,480
for the US.

2615
01:31:05,480 --> 01:31:08,440
And we hope to endeavor with these decisions

2616
01:31:08,440 --> 01:31:11,220
to get more services for our citizens.

2617
01:31:11,920 --> 01:31:14,780
The Digital Markets Act, or DMA, seeks to

2618
01:31:14,780 --> 01:31:17,540
ensure that large gatekeeper platforms operate in a

2619
01:31:17,540 --> 01:31:19,500
fair way and allow room for competitors.

2620
01:31:20,020 --> 01:31:22,860
The European Commission found Apple imposed restrictions on

2621
01:31:22,860 --> 01:31:24,980
developers, which meant they could not take full

2622
01:31:24,980 --> 01:31:28,040
benefit of distribution channels other than Apple's App

2623
01:31:28,040 --> 01:31:28,340
Store.

2624
01:31:28,500 --> 01:31:31,280
As for Meta, the EU's fines relate to

2625
01:31:31,280 --> 01:31:34,240
the company's consent or pay advertising model.

2626
01:31:34,240 --> 01:31:37,140
EU users of Instagram and Facebook had to

2627
01:31:37,140 --> 01:31:39,240
choose between consent for Meta to use their

2628
01:31:39,240 --> 01:31:42,000
private data for advertising, or pay a monthly

2629
01:31:42,000 --> 01:31:44,340
subscription for an ad-free service.

2630
01:31:44,820 --> 01:31:48,060
Under the DMA, gatekeeper platforms must provide a

2631
01:31:48,060 --> 01:31:52,140
less personalized but equivalent alternative to users who

2632
01:31:52,140 --> 01:31:54,080
do not consent to the usage of their

2633
01:31:54,080 --> 01:31:54,880
personal data.

2634
01:31:55,420 --> 01:31:58,120
A Meta spokesperson told the Epoch Times that

2635
01:31:58,120 --> 01:32:01,320
the European Commission is attempting to handicap successful

2636
01:32:01,320 --> 01:32:04,800
American businesses while allowing Chinese and European companies

2637
01:32:04,800 --> 01:32:06,720
to operate under different standards.

2638
01:32:07,220 --> 01:32:09,660
In a statement to Reuters, Apple said it

2639
01:32:09,660 --> 01:32:11,900
would challenge the EU fine and called it

2640
01:32:11,900 --> 01:32:14,840
another example of being unfairly targeted in decisions

2641
01:32:14,840 --> 01:32:17,120
that are bad for the privacy and security

2642
01:32:17,120 --> 01:32:17,800
of users.

2643
01:32:18,160 --> 01:32:20,660
The fines come amid trade tensions between the

2644
01:32:20,660 --> 01:32:23,540
United States and the EU, notably the tariffs.

2645
01:32:32,600 --> 01:32:34,640
Well, can I just stay on big tech

2646
01:32:34,640 --> 01:32:35,880
for a second, or are they also big

2647
01:32:35,880 --> 01:32:36,020
tech?

2648
01:32:36,100 --> 01:32:37,060
No, stay on big tech.

2649
01:32:37,680 --> 01:32:41,360
A very concerning executive order was signed yesterday.

2650
01:32:41,880 --> 01:32:44,220
I don't like this one at all.

2651
01:32:44,380 --> 01:32:47,660
President Trump signed seven executive orders on education.

2652
01:32:48,140 --> 01:32:50,440
One order targets the federal government's process for

2653
01:32:50,440 --> 01:32:53,760
deciding what colleges and universities can access billions

2654
01:32:53,760 --> 01:32:56,280
of dollars in federal student loans and Pell

2655
01:32:56,280 --> 01:32:58,160
Grants, which go to poorer students.

2656
01:32:58,600 --> 01:33:00,380
It also directs the U.S. Attorney General

2657
01:33:00,380 --> 01:33:04,220
and Secretary of Education to investigate unlawful discrimination

2658
01:33:04,220 --> 01:33:06,520
by higher education institutions.

2659
01:33:06,620 --> 01:33:09,520
The president also signed an executive order aimed

2660
01:33:09,520 --> 01:33:13,480
at bringing artificial intelligence into K through 12

2661
01:33:13,480 --> 01:33:14,160
schools.

2662
01:33:15,220 --> 01:33:17,560
You don't like, you don't like the AI

2663
01:33:17,560 --> 01:33:17,920
part?

2664
01:33:18,080 --> 01:33:19,760
No, it's horrible.

2665
01:33:20,860 --> 01:33:24,080
Like all these guys, all the guys who

2666
01:33:24,080 --> 01:33:25,360
were in there, they finally got what they

2667
01:33:25,360 --> 01:33:25,660
wanted.

2668
01:33:26,200 --> 01:33:28,400
Now, of course, it's a task force, so

2669
01:33:28,400 --> 01:33:30,100
it's not done yet, but they have 90

2670
01:33:30,100 --> 01:33:33,080
days to come up with plans for the

2671
01:33:33,080 --> 01:33:35,720
presidential artificial intelligence challenge.

2672
01:33:38,220 --> 01:33:41,260
The challenge shall encourage and highlight student educator

2673
01:33:41,260 --> 01:33:45,260
achievements in AI, promote wide geographic adoption of

2674
01:33:45,260 --> 01:33:48,700
technological advancement, and foster collaboration between government,

2675
01:33:48,880 --> 01:33:52,780
academia, philanthropy, and industry to address national challenges

2676
01:33:52,780 --> 01:33:54,240
with AI solutions.

2677
01:33:57,740 --> 01:34:00,140
I didn't pay attention to that when it,

2678
01:34:00,160 --> 01:34:01,660
the whole thing, to be honest.

2679
01:34:01,800 --> 01:34:04,280
The whole, it's nice to know that you're

2680
01:34:04,280 --> 01:34:04,840
on it.

2681
01:34:05,180 --> 01:34:08,160
It's, it's, it's, it's, it makes part of

2682
01:34:08,160 --> 01:34:12,660
your, your, your one man fight, fight against

2683
01:34:12,660 --> 01:34:13,040
AI.

2684
01:34:13,620 --> 01:34:17,920
Yes, you're a Don Quixote approach to AI

2685
01:34:17,920 --> 01:34:18,800
windmills.

2686
01:34:19,180 --> 01:34:21,500
Within 120 days, this is long, I'll just,

2687
01:34:21,620 --> 01:34:22,900
I'm just highlighting some things.

2688
01:34:22,900 --> 01:34:24,360
Within 120 days of the day, this order,

2689
01:34:24,460 --> 01:34:27,340
the director of the NSF shall take steps

2690
01:34:27,340 --> 01:34:29,500
to prioritize research on the use of, research

2691
01:34:29,500 --> 01:34:31,080
on the use of AI in education.

2692
01:34:31,640 --> 01:34:32,900
Oh yes, they're going to use it in,

2693
01:34:32,980 --> 01:34:34,420
in, in the schools.

2694
01:34:35,740 --> 01:34:38,980
Utilize existing programs to create teacher training opportunities

2695
01:34:38,980 --> 01:34:43,360
that help educators effectively integrate AI-based tools

2696
01:34:43,360 --> 01:34:46,120
and modalities in classrooms.

2697
01:34:49,200 --> 01:34:50,160
Go homeschool.

2698
01:34:51,040 --> 01:34:53,180
When I was a kid, they wouldn't let

2699
01:34:53,180 --> 01:34:55,140
us have a calculator in the school.

2700
01:34:57,760 --> 01:34:59,720
Oh, and it's all going to be public

2701
01:34:59,720 --> 01:35:00,860
-private partnerships.

2702
01:35:01,620 --> 01:35:02,640
It's a bonanza.

2703
01:35:03,280 --> 01:35:05,340
It's, I see this really as a bailout.

2704
01:35:06,500 --> 01:35:08,100
Bail out of this nonsense.

2705
01:35:10,700 --> 01:35:13,000
It hasn't even jumped the shark yet.

2706
01:35:15,910 --> 01:35:16,790
It's troubling.

2707
01:35:16,990 --> 01:35:18,130
I don't like it.

2708
01:35:18,190 --> 01:35:19,070
It's troubling to me.

2709
01:35:19,190 --> 01:35:19,670
It's troubling.

2710
01:35:19,870 --> 01:35:20,450
Yes, it is.

2711
01:35:20,650 --> 01:35:22,510
I knew that would be the case.

2712
01:35:24,170 --> 01:35:25,790
Two quickies and then we can go.

2713
01:35:26,050 --> 01:35:26,230
All right.

2714
01:35:26,870 --> 01:35:28,350
Now this is Scott Besant.

2715
01:35:28,550 --> 01:35:31,150
He came and went and gave a lecture

2716
01:35:31,150 --> 01:35:32,530
to the IMF.

2717
01:35:32,630 --> 01:35:34,090
This is our treasurer's secretary.

2718
01:35:35,470 --> 01:35:36,790
The treasury secretary.

2719
01:35:37,250 --> 01:35:37,450
He's the guy.

2720
01:35:37,590 --> 01:35:38,330
He's the money guy.

2721
01:35:38,450 --> 01:35:39,110
He's the money guy.

2722
01:35:39,490 --> 01:35:41,730
I have two versions of the same, of

2723
01:35:41,730 --> 01:35:42,730
the same presentation.

2724
01:35:42,950 --> 01:35:44,810
This one's NPR and one's NTD.

2725
01:35:45,330 --> 01:35:47,650
And I want to play them back to

2726
01:35:47,650 --> 01:35:47,990
back.

2727
01:35:48,570 --> 01:35:51,550
But Besant lectured the IMF about how screwed

2728
01:35:51,550 --> 01:35:52,250
up they are.

2729
01:35:53,430 --> 01:35:56,090
And now I thought the NTD was so

2730
01:35:56,090 --> 01:35:57,170
much better than NPR.

2731
01:35:57,330 --> 01:35:59,410
And now you have just, just help me.

2732
01:35:59,530 --> 01:36:01,190
You have two Besant.

2733
01:36:02,290 --> 01:36:03,310
Those are dupes.

2734
01:36:03,630 --> 01:36:04,310
Oh, okay.

2735
01:36:04,450 --> 01:36:04,830
They're dupes.

2736
01:36:04,910 --> 01:36:05,150
All right.

2737
01:36:05,150 --> 01:36:05,350
Good.

2738
01:36:05,750 --> 01:36:05,930
Okay.

2739
01:36:06,150 --> 01:36:08,290
The NPR clip is the one to go

2740
01:36:08,290 --> 01:36:08,790
start with.

2741
01:36:08,910 --> 01:36:09,170
All right.

2742
01:36:09,190 --> 01:36:09,410
All right.

2743
01:36:09,410 --> 01:36:09,750
Here we go.

2744
01:36:10,010 --> 01:36:12,790
Treasury Secretary Scott Besant says the U.S.

2745
01:36:12,870 --> 01:36:14,430
wants to remain a leader in the global

2746
01:36:14,430 --> 01:36:14,870
economy.

2747
01:36:14,870 --> 01:36:18,030
Even as President Trump's tariffs cast a cloud

2748
01:36:18,030 --> 01:36:19,610
over worldwide trade.

2749
01:36:19,610 --> 01:36:22,950
NPR's Scott Horsley reports Besant spoke this morning

2750
01:36:22,950 --> 01:36:25,730
on the sidelines of a global economic summit.

2751
01:36:25,930 --> 01:36:28,150
Besant addressed a gathering of the International Monetary

2752
01:36:28,150 --> 01:36:30,750
Fund and the World Bank, two institutions set

2753
01:36:30,750 --> 01:36:31,950
up in the wake of World War II

2754
01:36:31,950 --> 01:36:34,330
to foster peace and global prosperity.

2755
01:36:35,190 --> 01:36:37,230
Besant accused the IMF and World Bank of

2756
01:36:37,230 --> 01:36:39,930
straying from their core missions to tackle problems

2757
01:36:39,930 --> 01:36:41,270
such as climate change.

2758
01:36:41,610 --> 01:36:43,450
He urged the World Bank to finance more

2759
01:36:43,450 --> 01:36:46,650
nuclear and fossil fuel projects in developing countries.

2760
01:36:46,650 --> 01:36:51,010
Energy abundance sparks economic abundance.

2761
01:36:51,950 --> 01:36:55,230
That's why the bank should encourage an all

2762
01:36:55,230 --> 01:36:58,370
of the above approach to energy development.

2763
01:36:59,030 --> 01:37:01,690
The IMF has downgraded its forecast of global

2764
01:37:01,690 --> 01:37:04,250
economic growth this year, largely as a result

2765
01:37:04,250 --> 01:37:05,890
of President Trump's trade war.

2766
01:37:06,050 --> 01:37:07,770
Oh, this is what the president said.

2767
01:37:08,150 --> 01:37:09,890
IMF stay out of politics.

2768
01:37:11,290 --> 01:37:11,910
Right.

2769
01:37:12,010 --> 01:37:14,350
So that was kind of a bland, bland,

2770
01:37:14,650 --> 01:37:15,690
bland and slanted.

2771
01:37:15,690 --> 01:37:16,990
It was bland and boring.

2772
01:37:17,150 --> 01:37:18,290
And it was like and they had a

2773
01:37:18,290 --> 01:37:19,610
little slam against Trump.

2774
01:37:19,750 --> 01:37:22,130
And it was the whole thing was just

2775
01:37:22,130 --> 01:37:24,230
as typical NPR crap.

2776
01:37:24,330 --> 01:37:27,130
I thought that this one was more meaningful

2777
01:37:27,130 --> 01:37:31,410
and it had about the same length, a

2778
01:37:31,410 --> 01:37:32,130
little bit longer.

2779
01:37:32,690 --> 01:37:34,690
It was I think it's more meaningful and

2780
01:37:34,690 --> 01:37:35,470
more in depth.

2781
01:37:35,530 --> 01:37:37,370
And I thought it hit this mark.

2782
01:37:37,370 --> 01:37:38,670
And this is from NTD.

2783
01:37:39,030 --> 01:37:41,650
China in particular is in need of a

2784
01:37:41,650 --> 01:37:42,350
rebalancing.

2785
01:37:43,210 --> 01:37:47,090
Recent data shows the Chinese economy tilting even

2786
01:37:47,090 --> 01:37:50,450
further away from consumption toward manufacturing.

2787
01:37:50,890 --> 01:37:55,370
China's economic system, with growth driven by manufacturing

2788
01:37:55,370 --> 01:37:59,070
exports, will continue to create even more serious

2789
01:37:59,070 --> 01:38:02,870
imbalances with its trading partners if the status

2790
01:38:02,870 --> 01:38:04,650
quo is allowed to continue.

2791
01:38:05,130 --> 01:38:08,630
China's current economic model is built on exporting

2792
01:38:08,630 --> 01:38:10,750
its way out of its economic troubles.

2793
01:38:10,750 --> 01:38:14,010
It's an unsustainable model that is not only

2794
01:38:14,010 --> 01:38:16,630
harming China, but the entire world.

2795
01:38:16,850 --> 01:38:19,390
Besant added, quote, treating China, the second largest

2796
01:38:19,390 --> 01:38:21,510
country in the world, as a developing country

2797
01:38:21,510 --> 01:38:22,550
is absurd.

2798
01:38:22,950 --> 01:38:24,870
In addition to pushing for more pressure on

2799
01:38:24,870 --> 01:38:28,230
China, Besant urged the IMF to reprioritize the

2800
01:38:28,230 --> 01:38:29,190
world economy.

2801
01:38:29,490 --> 01:38:32,630
The treasury secretary denounced the World Financial Organization

2802
01:38:32,630 --> 01:38:36,350
for devoting, quote, disproportionate time and resources to

2803
01:38:36,350 --> 01:38:39,690
work on climate change, gender and social issues.

2804
01:38:39,690 --> 01:38:42,830
Besant added, quote, mission creep has knocked these

2805
01:38:42,830 --> 01:38:44,610
institutions off course.

2806
01:38:45,210 --> 01:38:45,690
Hmm.

2807
01:38:46,770 --> 01:38:48,690
I didn't know the IMF was working on

2808
01:38:48,690 --> 01:38:49,950
gender issues.

2809
01:38:50,770 --> 01:38:53,310
This is out of control, this gender thing.

2810
01:38:54,570 --> 01:38:56,750
They're trying, but they're not getting anything.

2811
01:38:57,890 --> 01:38:59,170
They're not going to be able to move

2812
01:38:59,170 --> 01:38:59,750
this forward.

2813
01:39:00,450 --> 01:39:01,410
It's just not happening.

2814
01:39:02,310 --> 01:39:04,310
I keep reading about the Mar-a-Lago

2815
01:39:04,310 --> 01:39:05,590
Accords everywhere, though.

2816
01:39:06,150 --> 01:39:07,070
It's like, oh, we're in this.

2817
01:39:07,190 --> 01:39:08,010
It's time now.

2818
01:39:08,050 --> 01:39:08,610
It's time.

2819
01:39:08,610 --> 01:39:12,310
We need a new, uh, uh, what was

2820
01:39:12,310 --> 01:39:12,670
it called?

2821
01:39:12,910 --> 01:39:14,610
The original one in 47.

2822
01:39:16,050 --> 01:39:18,050
We need a new Bretton Woods.

2823
01:39:18,570 --> 01:39:19,330
Oh, Bretton Woods, yes.

2824
01:39:19,550 --> 01:39:20,830
Signed for the Mar-a-Lago Accords.

2825
01:39:20,950 --> 01:39:21,850
I keep reading it everywhere.

2826
01:39:21,930 --> 01:39:23,250
And I think we were the first ones

2827
01:39:23,250 --> 01:39:23,750
to use the term.

2828
01:39:23,750 --> 01:39:24,770
I don't read it anywhere.

2829
01:39:25,290 --> 01:39:26,570
Oh, really?

2830
01:39:27,350 --> 01:39:27,610
Yeah.

2831
01:39:28,010 --> 01:39:29,630
Yeah, no, yeah, let me see.

2832
01:39:30,650 --> 01:39:33,530
Well, it's investing.com, whatever that is.

2833
01:39:34,330 --> 01:39:36,830
What the proposed Mar-a-Lago Accord could

2834
01:39:36,830 --> 01:39:38,070
mean for investors.

2835
01:39:39,610 --> 01:39:42,530
Uh, while not officially endorsed, the framework outlines

2836
01:39:42,530 --> 01:39:45,070
measures designed to preserve the U.S. dollar's

2837
01:39:45,070 --> 01:39:48,490
global dominance while intentionally weakening its value, which

2838
01:39:48,490 --> 01:39:49,170
is what we need.

2839
01:39:50,930 --> 01:39:53,210
UBS strategists note that these measures aim to

2840
01:39:53,210 --> 01:39:53,670
lower trade.

2841
01:39:53,810 --> 01:39:56,130
So the idea is to create new bonds.

2842
01:39:57,570 --> 01:39:59,190
Um, a hundred-year bond.

2843
01:39:59,330 --> 01:40:01,790
It's like the trillion-dollar coin, only upside

2844
01:40:01,790 --> 01:40:02,210
down.

2845
01:40:03,050 --> 01:40:05,410
And so everybody gets a new bond for

2846
01:40:05,410 --> 01:40:05,990
your old bond.

2847
01:40:06,050 --> 01:40:07,150
You get a hundred-year bond.

2848
01:40:08,090 --> 01:40:09,830
And I guess it has a lower yield,

2849
01:40:10,290 --> 01:40:11,170
I guess.

2850
01:40:12,170 --> 01:40:13,950
I don't know how any of this works.

2851
01:40:17,490 --> 01:40:19,650
I don't understand any of this stuff.

2852
01:40:20,190 --> 01:40:22,110
Did you guys talk about it at all?

2853
01:40:22,850 --> 01:40:24,610
Not the hundred-year bond, no.

2854
01:40:24,890 --> 01:40:26,750
We talked about it, but actually, the trillion

2855
01:40:26,750 --> 01:40:28,230
-dollar coin doesn't come up either.

2856
01:40:28,690 --> 01:40:30,150
Well, no, that's the stablecoin.

2857
01:40:30,370 --> 01:40:31,190
That's on deck.

2858
01:40:31,270 --> 01:40:32,310
I think that's going to be part of

2859
01:40:32,310 --> 01:40:33,230
the Mar-a-Lago Accord.

2860
01:40:33,230 --> 01:40:36,650
To finalize, though, I got a great list

2861
01:40:36,650 --> 01:40:41,070
of 23 subtle but alarming recession indicators.

2862
01:40:41,910 --> 01:40:43,510
Now, we have a recession.

2863
01:40:43,670 --> 01:40:46,610
We have one, I think, one recession indicator,

2864
01:40:46,910 --> 01:40:48,570
which is the Dvorak Law.

2865
01:40:49,150 --> 01:40:50,510
Maybe you'd like to reiterate it.

2866
01:40:51,330 --> 01:40:52,270
The one about hookers?

2867
01:40:52,330 --> 01:40:52,950
Yeah, that one.

2868
01:40:53,770 --> 01:40:54,790
That's the one.

2869
01:40:56,170 --> 01:40:59,930
That when in a recession, the hookers get

2870
01:40:59,930 --> 01:41:01,690
better looking and are cheaper.

2871
01:41:03,230 --> 01:41:04,330
Wasn't there another one?

2872
01:41:04,390 --> 01:41:06,970
Didn't we have the hairdressers?

2873
01:41:07,010 --> 01:41:08,210
We had the hairdresser one.

2874
01:41:08,330 --> 01:41:08,930
That's yours.

2875
01:41:09,110 --> 01:41:10,990
Yes, we had the hairdresser one, which is

2876
01:41:10,990 --> 01:41:15,210
women no longer get expensive hairdos, and they

2877
01:41:15,210 --> 01:41:17,190
start dyeing their hair at home.

2878
01:41:17,810 --> 01:41:19,990
But here are 23 more, which I think

2879
01:41:19,990 --> 01:41:21,750
is worth mentioning.

2880
01:41:23,670 --> 01:41:29,320
Five-dollar blackjack tables at the Aria instead

2881
01:41:29,320 --> 01:41:31,080
of the typical 25.

2882
01:41:33,260 --> 01:41:33,800
Plumbers.

2883
01:41:33,800 --> 01:41:36,140
Dollar blackjack tables everywhere.

2884
01:41:36,380 --> 01:41:37,200
Well, this is the Aria.

2885
01:41:37,340 --> 01:41:38,020
The Aria.

2886
01:41:38,120 --> 01:41:40,100
Okay, the Aria is a very special casino

2887
01:41:40,100 --> 01:41:40,700
in Vegas.

2888
01:41:41,100 --> 01:41:42,860
Plumbers showing up on time.

2889
01:41:45,360 --> 01:41:46,020
I like that.

2890
01:41:46,340 --> 01:41:48,200
I've never had an issue with plumbers showing

2891
01:41:48,200 --> 01:41:48,820
up on time.

2892
01:41:49,040 --> 01:41:50,580
Well, Berkeley is never going to be in

2893
01:41:50,580 --> 01:41:51,020
a recession.

2894
01:41:51,920 --> 01:41:55,520
Italian sandwich shops in prime locations struggling.

2895
01:41:58,040 --> 01:41:59,580
Companies moving overseas.

2896
01:41:59,900 --> 01:42:00,740
I don't think that's right.

2897
01:42:01,160 --> 01:42:02,800
Real estate ghost towns.

2898
01:42:03,500 --> 01:42:04,520
Have we seen that yet?

2899
01:42:04,560 --> 01:42:05,260
I don't think so.

2900
01:42:05,260 --> 01:42:06,460
I like number seven.

2901
01:42:06,900 --> 01:42:08,120
A lack of Botox.

2902
01:42:11,340 --> 01:42:12,260
A lack of...

2903
01:42:12,260 --> 01:42:12,960
Okay, keep reading.

2904
01:42:13,080 --> 01:42:13,440
I don't know.

2905
01:42:13,540 --> 01:42:14,760
These are terrible, by the way.

2906
01:42:14,840 --> 01:42:16,140
Empty strip clubs.

2907
01:42:18,180 --> 01:42:19,940
Fixer cars on Facebook.

2908
01:42:21,020 --> 01:42:22,320
Here's one I think is true.

2909
01:42:22,780 --> 01:42:24,940
A used guitar surplus.

2910
01:42:26,300 --> 01:42:29,960
Everyone's selling their acts like, I gotta get

2911
01:42:29,960 --> 01:42:30,920
rid of my guitar, man.

2912
01:42:31,680 --> 01:42:33,380
Home cooked lunches.

2913
01:42:34,340 --> 01:42:35,980
Owner sold cars.

2914
01:42:36,600 --> 01:42:38,080
You know when you drive in a neighborhood

2915
01:42:38,080 --> 01:42:38,760
and you got a...

2916
01:42:39,320 --> 01:42:40,740
They got the car out there and it

2917
01:42:40,740 --> 01:42:41,020
says...

2918
01:42:41,020 --> 01:42:42,520
That's what Craigslist is for.

2919
01:42:42,900 --> 01:42:43,240
Well...

2920
01:42:43,240 --> 01:42:45,420
It's been going on for years, owner.

2921
01:42:46,960 --> 01:42:48,520
Availability at the vet office.

2922
01:42:50,320 --> 01:42:50,680
No.

2923
01:42:52,780 --> 01:42:54,360
Short fast food lines.

2924
01:42:55,320 --> 01:42:56,640
Hmm, I'm not seeing that here.

2925
01:42:56,780 --> 01:42:57,680
I haven't seen that anywhere.

2926
01:42:58,040 --> 01:42:59,420
They opened up a Chick-fil-A in

2927
01:42:59,420 --> 01:43:00,000
Fredericksburg.

2928
01:43:00,200 --> 01:43:01,060
Holy moly.

2929
01:43:01,120 --> 01:43:01,520
Oh, did they now?

2930
01:43:01,660 --> 01:43:02,960
Well, it's outside the town center.

2931
01:43:02,960 --> 01:43:04,100
Have you had the chicken sandwich?

2932
01:43:04,220 --> 01:43:05,480
I'd like to get a review of it.

2933
01:43:06,620 --> 01:43:08,680
I really don't like Chick-fil-A.

2934
01:43:08,800 --> 01:43:10,800
I've had it maybe once, maybe twice.

2935
01:43:10,980 --> 01:43:11,980
I'm not a fan.

2936
01:43:12,080 --> 01:43:15,060
It's just chicken mush in a sandwich.

2937
01:43:15,880 --> 01:43:16,640
Is that right?

2938
01:43:16,960 --> 01:43:18,620
I thought it was a pretty good quality

2939
01:43:18,620 --> 01:43:19,020
product.

2940
01:43:19,280 --> 01:43:19,720
I don't know.

2941
01:43:19,760 --> 01:43:21,240
I've never had one, so I don't know.

2942
01:43:22,800 --> 01:43:24,220
Well, it's right near the church.

2943
01:43:24,580 --> 01:43:26,720
But unfortunately, they're not open on Sunday.

2944
01:43:29,800 --> 01:43:31,380
Card collections on sale.

2945
01:43:33,000 --> 01:43:34,880
Plenty of card collections.

2946
01:43:34,880 --> 01:43:36,520
You know, like baseball cards.

2947
01:43:36,620 --> 01:43:37,640
People trying to sell stuff.

2948
01:43:37,780 --> 01:43:39,340
Sell their baseball cards.

2949
01:43:40,220 --> 01:43:40,320
Yeah.

2950
01:43:40,440 --> 01:43:40,720
No.

2951
01:43:41,420 --> 01:43:41,820
Parking.

2952
01:43:41,940 --> 01:43:42,700
Plenty of parking.

2953
01:43:45,440 --> 01:43:46,240
Declined payments.

2954
01:43:46,760 --> 01:43:49,040
I've seen this a lot at the grocery

2955
01:43:49,040 --> 01:43:49,440
store.

2956
01:43:51,280 --> 01:43:52,080
Declined payments.

2957
01:43:52,640 --> 01:43:54,920
Stand behind somebody like they got open.

2958
01:43:55,140 --> 01:43:55,920
Yeah, payments declined.

2959
01:43:56,200 --> 01:43:56,900
Yeah, that happened.

2960
01:43:57,280 --> 01:43:57,820
That's it.

2961
01:43:57,900 --> 01:43:58,840
So none of them are any good.

2962
01:43:58,920 --> 01:43:59,820
Yeah, I guess not.

2963
01:44:00,100 --> 01:44:01,280
I don't think that was a very good

2964
01:44:01,280 --> 01:44:01,440
list.

2965
01:44:01,480 --> 01:44:02,680
I think we should come up with our

2966
01:44:02,680 --> 01:44:02,940
own.

2967
01:44:03,120 --> 01:44:04,180
Well, we have two.

2968
01:44:04,180 --> 01:44:05,180
It's a start.

2969
01:44:05,380 --> 01:44:05,800
We do have two.

2970
01:44:06,100 --> 01:44:08,900
But mine's no good anymore since the OnlyFans

2971
01:44:08,900 --> 01:44:09,740
come around.

2972
01:44:09,740 --> 01:44:11,080
There are no more hookers.

2973
01:44:11,840 --> 01:44:13,680
That's the exit strategy, by the way.

2974
01:44:13,820 --> 01:44:14,760
Holy moly.

2975
01:44:15,300 --> 01:44:17,940
Some girl just retired from OnlyFans.

2976
01:44:18,280 --> 01:44:20,820
67 million dollars in three years time.

2977
01:44:20,940 --> 01:44:21,900
She's like, nah, I'm good.

2978
01:44:22,520 --> 01:44:22,960
I'm done.

2979
01:44:26,060 --> 01:44:27,260
20 million a year?

2980
01:44:27,480 --> 01:44:27,720
Yeah.

2981
01:44:27,940 --> 01:44:28,760
Oh, I believe it.

2982
01:44:29,060 --> 01:44:30,360
Well, she must be really a true talker.

2983
01:44:30,360 --> 01:44:33,520
No, and she actually never even really took

2984
01:44:33,520 --> 01:44:34,620
her clothes off, apparently.

2985
01:44:35,280 --> 01:44:36,440
She just did poses.

2986
01:44:36,960 --> 01:44:37,340
Sweet talker.

2987
01:44:37,400 --> 01:44:38,320
She knows what she's doing.

2988
01:44:38,560 --> 01:44:39,640
And with that, I'd like to thank you

2989
01:44:39,640 --> 01:44:40,240
for your courage.

2990
01:44:40,360 --> 01:44:41,460
Say in the morning to you, the man

2991
01:44:41,460 --> 01:44:42,720
who put the sea in John C.

2992
01:44:43,720 --> 01:44:45,260
Dvorak's economic woes indicators.

2993
01:44:45,840 --> 01:44:47,080
Say hello to my friend on the other

2994
01:44:47,080 --> 01:44:47,240
end.

2995
01:44:47,320 --> 01:44:49,020
The one, the only Mr. John C.

2996
01:44:49,500 --> 01:44:49,780
Dvorak!

2997
01:44:53,660 --> 01:44:55,000
Yeah, in the morning to you, Mr. Adam

2998
01:44:55,000 --> 01:44:55,280
Currie.

2999
01:44:55,360 --> 01:44:56,440
In the morning, strips, sea boots, and a

3000
01:44:56,440 --> 01:44:56,960
raffineer.

3001
01:44:58,120 --> 01:45:01,720
In the morning, yeah, trolls.

3002
01:45:01,860 --> 01:45:02,300
Let me say it.

3003
01:45:02,300 --> 01:45:03,120
For a second.

3004
01:45:07,460 --> 01:45:10,180
1,914 listening live right now.

3005
01:45:10,920 --> 01:45:12,360
Yeah, we're kind of on a, we're going,

3006
01:45:12,480 --> 01:45:14,300
we're moving sideways with this chart, people.

3007
01:45:14,780 --> 01:45:15,120
Sideways.

3008
01:45:15,400 --> 01:45:16,540
Side to sideways movement.

3009
01:45:17,040 --> 01:45:17,700
That's okay.

3010
01:45:17,860 --> 01:45:19,720
But we love the trolls, especially the ones

3011
01:45:19,720 --> 01:45:21,240
who hang out in the troll room and

3012
01:45:21,240 --> 01:45:23,980
comment, give all kinds of interesting idea.

3013
01:45:24,260 --> 01:45:26,160
Whenever a Jewish name comes up, you see

3014
01:45:26,160 --> 01:45:29,800
people with emojis going, hmm, yes, there are

3015
01:45:29,800 --> 01:45:31,500
a bunch of anti-Semites there.

3016
01:45:31,560 --> 01:45:32,120
It's great.

3017
01:45:33,160 --> 01:45:35,580
So there's anti-Semites in the, in the

3018
01:45:35,580 --> 01:45:36,080
troll room.

3019
01:45:36,300 --> 01:45:36,780
Gambling?

3020
01:45:41,580 --> 01:45:43,820
Yeah, whenever it's a Jewish name, like, oh,

3021
01:45:44,020 --> 01:45:44,700
oh, okay.

3022
01:45:44,900 --> 01:45:47,620
I don't know what is up.

3023
01:45:47,660 --> 01:45:49,360
I don't know what's up either.

3024
01:45:49,860 --> 01:45:51,300
Yeah, you can join them.

3025
01:45:52,560 --> 01:45:53,900
Practice your Hitler salute.

3026
01:45:54,060 --> 01:45:57,180
Jump on in trollroom.io. Everybody loves hanging

3027
01:45:57,180 --> 01:45:58,200
out and have fun there.

3028
01:45:58,620 --> 01:46:00,380
I have not kicked somebody off in a

3029
01:46:00,380 --> 01:46:00,940
long time.

3030
01:46:01,420 --> 01:46:02,920
Yeah, you're overdue.

3031
01:46:03,340 --> 01:46:05,900
I don't get mad anymore.

3032
01:46:06,080 --> 01:46:07,540
I just given up on being offended.

3033
01:46:07,780 --> 01:46:08,920
It's like, it's not worth it.

3034
01:46:09,120 --> 01:46:10,180
I feel much better.

3035
01:46:10,660 --> 01:46:12,400
By the way, I will remind you, there's

3036
01:46:12,400 --> 01:46:14,100
plenty of shows still to come after this

3037
01:46:14,100 --> 01:46:14,880
donation segment.

3038
01:46:15,120 --> 01:46:17,780
We have, well, we definitely have to discuss

3039
01:46:17,780 --> 01:46:18,640
Hegseth.

3040
01:46:19,300 --> 01:46:21,280
I got some, some funny clips there.

3041
01:46:21,940 --> 01:46:23,940
And maybe we should do some tariff stuff

3042
01:46:23,940 --> 01:46:26,060
just to keep everybody up, up to speed.

3043
01:46:26,060 --> 01:46:28,020
And of course, the tip of the day

3044
01:46:28,020 --> 01:46:30,420
now so popular that Bill O'Reilly is

3045
01:46:30,420 --> 01:46:32,480
ripping us off.

3046
01:46:32,840 --> 01:46:34,760
You know, we get ripped off constantly.

3047
01:46:34,980 --> 01:46:36,580
I think people, you know, they think it's

3048
01:46:36,580 --> 01:46:38,600
some sort of a secret that this show

3049
01:46:38,600 --> 01:46:39,060
exists.

3050
01:46:39,160 --> 01:46:40,880
And they listen, they have their producer listening.

3051
01:46:40,980 --> 01:46:42,440
I got an idea we can steal it

3052
01:46:42,440 --> 01:46:43,840
from those guys and no agenda.

3053
01:46:44,680 --> 01:46:46,040
I think, I think the thing is, we

3054
01:46:46,040 --> 01:46:47,940
have a pretty big audience that knows what's

3055
01:46:47,940 --> 01:46:48,620
going on.

3056
01:46:48,720 --> 01:46:48,940
Yeah.

3057
01:46:49,260 --> 01:46:50,580
And, and they pay attention.

3058
01:46:50,580 --> 01:46:52,260
And for some reason, they listen to Bill

3059
01:46:52,260 --> 01:46:52,700
O'Reilly.

3060
01:46:53,020 --> 01:46:54,800
And hey, wait a minute, Bill, what you

3061
01:46:54,800 --> 01:46:55,120
doing?

3062
01:46:55,580 --> 01:46:57,360
But of course, that's only for what was

3063
01:46:57,360 --> 01:46:57,480
it?

3064
01:46:57,540 --> 01:46:58,440
What was the term he had?

3065
01:46:58,620 --> 01:47:00,220
His concierge members.

3066
01:47:02,720 --> 01:47:04,900
We don't have concierge members.

3067
01:47:05,060 --> 01:47:06,920
We don't have a bundle.

3068
01:47:07,280 --> 01:47:09,540
We don't have no agenda plus for anything

3069
01:47:09,540 --> 01:47:09,820
else.

3070
01:47:09,900 --> 01:47:11,100
No, we just give it to you.

3071
01:47:11,140 --> 01:47:12,200
Club, no agenda.

3072
01:47:12,560 --> 01:47:13,540
Club, no agenda.

3073
01:47:13,680 --> 01:47:14,120
Good one.

3074
01:47:14,200 --> 01:47:17,500
We feel it's important that you get this

3075
01:47:17,500 --> 01:47:20,000
information no matter what your, no matter what

3076
01:47:20,000 --> 01:47:21,180
your financial status.

3077
01:47:21,180 --> 01:47:23,000
You know, I feel the same way about,

3078
01:47:23,100 --> 01:47:25,180
by the way, I, although I don't produce

3079
01:47:25,180 --> 01:47:27,680
as much as I should on Substack, I

3080
01:47:27,680 --> 01:47:31,940
have, I've decided that it will have a

3081
01:47:31,940 --> 01:47:33,720
value for value approach toward it.

3082
01:47:33,780 --> 01:47:35,460
I mean, I always have free content.

3083
01:47:35,520 --> 01:47:37,480
I'm never going to close it off for

3084
01:47:37,480 --> 01:47:39,280
the, oh, you have to be a subscriber.

3085
01:47:40,100 --> 01:47:44,160
And today I, I just unsubscribed to Seymour

3086
01:47:44,160 --> 01:47:45,400
Hersh's Substack.

3087
01:47:46,220 --> 01:47:46,760
Oh, interesting.

3088
01:47:46,880 --> 01:47:48,780
I'm still subscribed and I still pay.

3089
01:47:49,440 --> 01:47:50,300
I don't pay.

3090
01:47:50,300 --> 01:47:55,420
I refuse to pay because I'm cheap compared

3091
01:47:55,420 --> 01:47:55,860
to you.

3092
01:47:56,900 --> 01:47:58,840
I just want to support the old man

3093
01:47:58,840 --> 01:47:59,680
doing some work.

3094
01:47:59,820 --> 01:48:02,760
That's, he's got plenty of support, but it's

3095
01:48:02,760 --> 01:48:03,500
beside the point.

3096
01:48:03,660 --> 01:48:05,420
I would support him if I could read

3097
01:48:05,420 --> 01:48:06,920
these, some of these columns, but he just

3098
01:48:06,920 --> 01:48:09,820
writes teasers and then you have to subscribe

3099
01:48:09,820 --> 01:48:10,760
to read the rest of it.

3100
01:48:11,180 --> 01:48:14,240
And I'm not a fan of this idea

3101
01:48:14,240 --> 01:48:16,280
of writing a teaser and then trying to

3102
01:48:16,280 --> 01:48:18,940
make you make you subscribe because of, oh,

3103
01:48:18,980 --> 01:48:20,180
there's maybe something here.

3104
01:48:20,320 --> 01:48:21,400
If you keep reading further.

3105
01:48:21,620 --> 01:48:22,360
I didn't realize that.

3106
01:48:22,360 --> 01:48:23,100
So I just gave up.

3107
01:48:23,260 --> 01:48:25,080
Yeah, no, I'm against that too.

3108
01:48:25,180 --> 01:48:28,240
I mean, I support him because I, you

3109
01:48:28,240 --> 01:48:29,840
know, I just want to support his work,

3110
01:48:29,900 --> 01:48:31,780
but I didn't realize that he was doing

3111
01:48:31,780 --> 01:48:34,880
teasers and it was all, all in the

3112
01:48:34,880 --> 01:48:35,260
bundle.

3113
01:48:35,560 --> 01:48:37,860
And for concierge, so I'm a concierge member

3114
01:48:37,860 --> 01:48:40,120
apparently of Seymour Hersh.

3115
01:48:40,120 --> 01:48:43,020
Yeah, I would, I, I'm against that.

3116
01:48:43,160 --> 01:48:44,760
Yeah, it's not value for value.

3117
01:48:44,840 --> 01:48:46,220
That's just, you're being a tease.

3118
01:48:46,740 --> 01:48:48,160
You're a tease is no good.

3119
01:48:48,340 --> 01:48:49,780
You might as well be an only fans,

3120
01:48:50,020 --> 01:48:52,720
never taking your clothes off.

3121
01:48:52,800 --> 01:48:54,320
Yeah, there's, there's a visual.

3122
01:48:54,460 --> 01:48:56,180
I don't need of Seymour Hersh, but thanks.

3123
01:48:56,380 --> 01:48:57,220
I feel much better.

3124
01:48:57,560 --> 01:48:58,920
Well, he's not taking his clothes off.

3125
01:48:59,640 --> 01:49:00,900
Hey, by the way, you want to use

3126
01:49:00,900 --> 01:49:02,640
one of those modern podcast apps.

3127
01:49:02,700 --> 01:49:04,120
If you're listening to the show for a

3128
01:49:04,120 --> 01:49:04,840
number of reasons.

3129
01:49:05,360 --> 01:49:07,260
First of all, you get the, the live

3130
01:49:07,260 --> 01:49:09,080
stream in the modern podcast apps.

3131
01:49:09,080 --> 01:49:10,660
You get, you get the bat signal when

3132
01:49:10,660 --> 01:49:12,060
we go live and not just for our

3133
01:49:12,060 --> 01:49:12,300
show.

3134
01:49:12,300 --> 01:49:14,460
Any, almost any show on the no agenda

3135
01:49:14,460 --> 01:49:16,720
stream now utilizes this system.

3136
01:49:16,780 --> 01:49:18,300
So you want that, you want it for

3137
01:49:18,300 --> 01:49:19,160
the transcripts.

3138
01:49:19,180 --> 01:49:20,520
You want it for the chapters, you want

3139
01:49:20,520 --> 01:49:21,700
it for the chapter art.

3140
01:49:21,780 --> 01:49:23,300
And let's talk about that for a second.

3141
01:49:24,160 --> 01:49:25,800
Because it's what we do every single show.

3142
01:49:26,120 --> 01:49:28,980
We have hundreds of artists who are listening

3143
01:49:28,980 --> 01:49:31,380
to the show live and they're creating fun

3144
01:49:31,380 --> 01:49:33,080
art that we, I had actually, I helped,

3145
01:49:33,180 --> 01:49:36,100
I helped somebody audit their, their feed and

3146
01:49:36,100 --> 01:49:37,280
their podcast yesterday.

3147
01:49:37,740 --> 01:49:38,900
I said, cause they, it was one of

3148
01:49:38,900 --> 01:49:40,960
the first people ever said, Hey, we have

3149
01:49:40,960 --> 01:49:42,300
a pretty big successful show.

3150
01:49:42,600 --> 01:49:45,000
Would you mind hopping on a zoom call

3151
01:49:45,000 --> 01:49:48,080
with the team and, uh, and walking us

3152
01:49:48,080 --> 01:49:49,620
through what you think about, you know, our

3153
01:49:49,620 --> 01:49:51,800
feed, how we publish, are we, are there

3154
01:49:51,800 --> 01:49:52,680
any best practices?

3155
01:49:52,680 --> 01:49:55,560
And I said, I said, no one has

3156
01:49:55,560 --> 01:49:56,640
ever asked me to do that.

3157
01:49:57,020 --> 01:49:59,560
This is unbelievable what you just said.

3158
01:49:59,620 --> 01:50:01,900
No one has been harping on this for

3159
01:50:01,900 --> 01:50:03,840
not that I'm your agent.

3160
01:50:05,660 --> 01:50:07,460
Well, if you want a crabby job, if

3161
01:50:07,460 --> 01:50:08,740
I was, if you were, I would have

3162
01:50:08,740 --> 01:50:09,720
made money on the deal.

3163
01:50:09,720 --> 01:50:10,680
But no, okay.

3164
01:50:10,900 --> 01:50:11,760
And I didn't.

3165
01:50:11,940 --> 01:50:13,860
But the point is, is that this is

3166
01:50:13,860 --> 01:50:16,920
ridiculous that you have not been consulted on,

3167
01:50:17,040 --> 01:50:18,980
which, you know, it's, it's a pet peeve

3168
01:50:18,980 --> 01:50:20,960
of mine, not consulting the experts.

3169
01:50:21,100 --> 01:50:24,700
I remember when, uh, when Halsey started, uh,

3170
01:50:25,100 --> 01:50:27,040
CNET and you were, you auditioned there.

3171
01:50:27,640 --> 01:50:28,100
Yeah.

3172
01:50:28,180 --> 01:50:30,040
Well, I always, I got hired there, but

3173
01:50:30,040 --> 01:50:32,040
I, I didn't take the deal stupidly.

3174
01:50:32,480 --> 01:50:35,840
He ended up with a local guy.

3175
01:50:35,840 --> 01:50:37,980
But anyway, the point is, is he would

3176
01:50:37,980 --> 01:50:40,040
always find definitive people.

3177
01:50:41,660 --> 01:50:42,900
Uh, he would just do a little research.

3178
01:50:43,060 --> 01:50:43,640
Didn't take much.

3179
01:50:43,720 --> 01:50:44,940
And he just asked him if they wanted

3180
01:50:44,940 --> 01:50:45,960
to get in.

3181
01:50:46,020 --> 01:50:47,100
I mean, he did the thing with the,

3182
01:50:47,240 --> 01:50:47,980
with his website.

3183
01:50:47,980 --> 01:50:49,180
He found some guys that were one of

3184
01:50:49,180 --> 01:50:50,600
the early website developers.

3185
01:50:50,880 --> 01:50:52,980
And it's always, you go to the definitive

3186
01:50:52,980 --> 01:50:54,740
guy, the guy who invented it.

3187
01:50:54,900 --> 01:50:56,360
If you can find the guy who invented

3188
01:50:56,360 --> 01:50:58,740
the whole process, hey, get ahold of them.

3189
01:50:58,760 --> 01:51:00,000
See if he'll talk to you.

3190
01:51:00,900 --> 01:51:04,380
This never happens except there's a few guys

3191
01:51:04,380 --> 01:51:05,540
who understand it.

3192
01:51:05,840 --> 01:51:08,640
And I'm stunned that anyone got that, got

3193
01:51:08,640 --> 01:51:09,040
a clue.

3194
01:51:09,320 --> 01:51:10,740
You will even be more stunned by who

3195
01:51:10,740 --> 01:51:11,300
it was.

3196
01:51:11,880 --> 01:51:12,620
Who was it?

3197
01:51:12,800 --> 01:51:13,520
Chip Ingram.

3198
01:51:16,220 --> 01:51:16,320
Who?

3199
01:51:16,400 --> 01:51:17,380
You don't know Chip Ingram.

3200
01:51:17,900 --> 01:51:18,400
No.

3201
01:51:18,640 --> 01:51:20,640
Chip Ingram is a pastor.

3202
01:51:21,500 --> 01:51:24,120
He is on well over a thousand radio

3203
01:51:24,120 --> 01:51:27,400
stations, has millions of people listening to his

3204
01:51:27,400 --> 01:51:28,020
podcast.

3205
01:51:29,220 --> 01:51:30,920
Uh, it's called Living on the Edge.

3206
01:51:31,740 --> 01:51:33,800
And he has his board of directors.

3207
01:51:34,180 --> 01:51:36,760
You know, he's, uh, the, the, the, was

3208
01:51:36,760 --> 01:51:38,040
it the chairman of the board?

3209
01:51:38,040 --> 01:51:39,560
And they had the technology people.

3210
01:51:39,680 --> 01:51:42,980
I was like, wow, how smart are you

3211
01:51:42,980 --> 01:51:43,400
guys?

3212
01:51:43,420 --> 01:51:45,080
And he doesn't, it's not gonna, you know,

3213
01:51:45,080 --> 01:51:47,180
that must be a three, $4 million a

3214
01:51:47,180 --> 01:51:50,340
year operation or more or more.

3215
01:51:50,480 --> 01:51:50,920
Yeah.

3216
01:51:51,400 --> 01:51:52,460
I was stunned.

3217
01:51:52,580 --> 01:51:54,080
I was stunned by the invitation.

3218
01:51:54,920 --> 01:51:56,520
Like, yeah, I'll do that.

3219
01:51:56,640 --> 01:51:57,080
Absolutely.

3220
01:51:59,000 --> 01:52:00,620
That's how pros operate, man.

3221
01:52:01,160 --> 01:52:02,280
Where's Bill O'Reilly?

3222
01:52:02,500 --> 01:52:04,000
No, no, no, no.

3223
01:52:04,100 --> 01:52:06,180
Instead he just steals stuff from us.

3224
01:52:06,460 --> 01:52:07,220
Yeah, exactly.

3225
01:52:08,120 --> 01:52:09,820
And we usually miss the point.

3226
01:52:10,080 --> 01:52:10,600
Big time.

3227
01:52:10,780 --> 01:52:13,100
Stealing, but it only goes to the concierge

3228
01:52:13,100 --> 01:52:13,520
service.

3229
01:52:13,740 --> 01:52:14,220
Oh, please.

3230
01:52:15,360 --> 01:52:16,700
So back to the artist.

3231
01:52:17,280 --> 01:52:20,640
We always thank the artist who brought us

3232
01:52:20,640 --> 01:52:22,300
the artwork for the previous episode.

3233
01:52:22,340 --> 01:52:26,880
In episode 1757, which we titled Word Veto,

3234
01:52:27,480 --> 01:52:28,860
a lot of people liked this art.

3235
01:52:28,860 --> 01:52:30,440
It was a combo piece.

3236
01:52:30,520 --> 01:52:31,700
It was by Fluff Comet.

3237
01:52:32,040 --> 01:52:35,520
Of course, 420 was Easter.

3238
01:52:35,980 --> 01:52:37,740
We always work on holidays if they fall

3239
01:52:37,740 --> 01:52:39,060
on show day or most of that.

3240
01:52:39,180 --> 01:52:40,480
I think we haven't missed one once.

3241
01:52:40,940 --> 01:52:43,940
It was also 420, well known under the

3242
01:52:43,940 --> 01:52:46,920
herb lovers of the group.

3243
01:52:47,400 --> 01:52:48,840
So it was a bunny munching on a

3244
01:52:48,840 --> 01:52:49,540
marijuana leaf.

3245
01:52:49,640 --> 01:52:51,240
The only thing we missed was Hitler in

3246
01:52:51,240 --> 01:52:52,300
there for Hitler's birthday.

3247
01:52:52,420 --> 01:52:53,780
Otherwise, it was a perfect piece.

3248
01:52:54,500 --> 01:52:56,000
I think we even mentioned that.

3249
01:52:56,000 --> 01:52:56,620
It was a perfect piece.

3250
01:52:56,620 --> 01:52:59,660
And the bunny munching on the pot plant

3251
01:52:59,660 --> 01:53:00,740
was amusing.

3252
01:53:01,080 --> 01:53:01,980
It was just cute.

3253
01:53:02,140 --> 01:53:02,720
It was cute.

3254
01:53:03,060 --> 01:53:05,300
And there were many people who tried eggs.

3255
01:53:05,500 --> 01:53:07,480
We really don't like bunnies and eggs.

3256
01:53:07,580 --> 01:53:08,600
I'll be honest about it.

3257
01:53:08,700 --> 01:53:10,860
We're like, ah, bunnies and eggs, bunnies and

3258
01:53:10,860 --> 01:53:12,360
eggs, lots of bunnies and eggs.

3259
01:53:13,120 --> 01:53:14,500
Yeah, it was a bit too much.

3260
01:53:15,260 --> 01:53:18,360
In hindsight, I thought Geraldo rolling the stone

3261
01:53:18,360 --> 01:53:19,400
away was kind of funny.

3262
01:53:21,040 --> 01:53:23,940
Although I'm always religious.

3263
01:53:24,660 --> 01:53:25,100
Yes, yeah.

3264
01:53:25,100 --> 01:53:26,560
Art is not necessarily, yeah.

3265
01:53:26,560 --> 01:53:28,160
You're very sensitive.

3266
01:53:28,460 --> 01:53:29,960
I am, I'm very sensitive to it.

3267
01:53:30,020 --> 01:53:30,940
Yeah, it's appreciated.

3268
01:53:32,520 --> 01:53:34,140
Let's see, what else was there?

3269
01:53:34,760 --> 01:53:37,660
There was a chocolate Easter bunny and a

3270
01:53:37,660 --> 01:53:38,460
chocolate Jesus.

3271
01:53:38,780 --> 01:53:42,440
And Jesus is melting the bunny with a

3272
01:53:42,440 --> 01:53:43,440
hair dryer.

3273
01:53:45,360 --> 01:53:46,820
I thought it was a great piece, but

3274
01:53:46,820 --> 01:53:48,500
it was like, I don't quite get it.

3275
01:53:48,640 --> 01:53:50,100
The bunny is melting.

3276
01:53:50,700 --> 01:53:53,140
It was wrong in so many ways.

3277
01:53:53,140 --> 01:53:56,140
It was just, it was a screwy piece.

3278
01:53:56,940 --> 01:53:59,680
Now, Scaramanga, you have this guy, you know,

3279
01:53:59,720 --> 01:54:01,880
he's one of the more creative guys out

3280
01:54:01,880 --> 01:54:02,080
there.

3281
01:54:02,080 --> 01:54:02,900
Oh yeah, that was Scaramanga.

3282
01:54:03,060 --> 01:54:05,560
He keeps doing these great AI videos of

3283
01:54:05,560 --> 01:54:07,320
us for the podcast awards.

3284
01:54:07,900 --> 01:54:09,460
Do you ever, do you even see them?

3285
01:54:09,520 --> 01:54:10,180
He's always tagging you.

3286
01:54:10,180 --> 01:54:11,220
I have not seen one of them.

3287
01:54:11,420 --> 01:54:12,640
Oh man, he always tags you.

3288
01:54:12,720 --> 01:54:14,440
He must be shadow banned somehow.

3289
01:54:15,380 --> 01:54:15,820
Maybe.

3290
01:54:16,100 --> 01:54:17,440
He's always tagging Brunetti.

3291
01:54:17,580 --> 01:54:18,980
Come on, Brunetti, let's make the movie.

3292
01:54:19,100 --> 01:54:19,580
Let's do it.

3293
01:54:19,580 --> 01:54:23,140
Like, Scaramanga, Brunetti's never going to make a

3294
01:54:23,140 --> 01:54:23,760
movie with you.

3295
01:54:24,140 --> 01:54:25,660
And let me just tell you straight up,

3296
01:54:26,100 --> 01:54:27,100
not going to do it.

3297
01:54:29,250 --> 01:54:30,210
He's not going to make a movie with

3298
01:54:30,210 --> 01:54:31,190
anyone the way he's going.

3299
01:54:31,510 --> 01:54:33,150
No, he won't listen to advice.

3300
01:54:34,790 --> 01:54:36,630
He gives out the advice.

3301
01:54:36,770 --> 01:54:39,070
He did give the idea for tip of

3302
01:54:39,070 --> 01:54:39,390
the day.

3303
01:54:39,690 --> 01:54:40,950
Yeah, well, and there you go.

3304
01:54:41,290 --> 01:54:43,270
He makes no money and he's getting ripped

3305
01:54:43,270 --> 01:54:43,650
off.

3306
01:54:43,970 --> 01:54:44,710
Yeah, there it goes.

3307
01:54:45,050 --> 01:54:46,310
Yes, but it was voluntarily.

3308
01:54:46,730 --> 01:54:47,430
Yeah, well, there you go.

3309
01:54:47,430 --> 01:54:48,450
He gets a credit.

3310
01:54:48,670 --> 01:54:49,730
Oh, he gets a credit.

3311
01:54:49,730 --> 01:54:51,210
For O'Reilly's tip of the day.

3312
01:54:51,450 --> 01:54:53,870
No, it should have said created by John

3313
01:54:53,870 --> 01:54:53,970
C.

3314
01:54:54,010 --> 01:54:54,390
Dvorak.

3315
01:54:54,830 --> 01:54:56,150
No, created by Danny Brunetti.

3316
01:54:58,010 --> 01:54:59,210
That's who should get the credit.

3317
01:55:00,210 --> 01:55:01,610
If he just said it once, that would

3318
01:55:01,610 --> 01:55:02,070
be okay.

3319
01:55:02,690 --> 01:55:03,670
But he won't.

3320
01:55:04,230 --> 01:55:05,390
So lots of AI stuff.

3321
01:55:05,530 --> 01:55:06,310
Surprise, surprise.

3322
01:55:07,170 --> 01:55:08,330
Lots of AI stuff.

3323
01:55:08,510 --> 01:55:10,070
Then all that's coming in is AI stuff.

3324
01:55:10,170 --> 01:55:10,710
AI stuff.

3325
01:55:10,830 --> 01:55:11,790
Tons of AI stuff.

3326
01:55:12,410 --> 01:55:13,350
It's not working, people.

3327
01:55:14,010 --> 01:55:15,750
You should be, this is really going to

3328
01:55:15,750 --> 01:55:16,730
teach kids in school.

3329
01:55:18,130 --> 01:55:18,530
Great.

3330
01:55:19,250 --> 01:55:21,470
We'll have a country of people who can

3331
01:55:21,470 --> 01:55:24,230
do chocolate bunnies and Jesus being melted with

3332
01:55:24,230 --> 01:55:25,330
a hairdryer.

3333
01:55:25,690 --> 01:55:26,430
What a future.

3334
01:55:26,650 --> 01:55:27,370
What a future.

3335
01:55:29,750 --> 01:55:31,730
So we do, of course, want to thank

3336
01:55:31,730 --> 01:55:32,570
Fluff Comet.

3337
01:55:32,910 --> 01:55:34,610
And Fluff, I think Fluff Comet's a new

3338
01:55:34,610 --> 01:55:35,230
artist as well.

3339
01:55:35,330 --> 01:55:35,730
No, wait a minute.

3340
01:55:35,850 --> 01:55:37,190
No, Fluff Comet's done a lot.

3341
01:55:37,350 --> 01:55:38,730
Fluff Comet's done a lot.

3342
01:55:38,790 --> 01:55:40,050
A lot of graffiti stuff.

3343
01:55:40,690 --> 01:55:42,770
These are all top-notch artists, whether using

3344
01:55:42,770 --> 01:55:44,590
AI or not, I'm always impressed and we

3345
01:55:44,590 --> 01:55:45,190
appreciate it.

3346
01:55:45,790 --> 01:55:46,890
Moreover, you can contribute.

3347
01:55:47,050 --> 01:55:47,890
You can be a part of it.

3348
01:55:48,590 --> 01:55:50,850
noagendaartgenerator.com or you can be listening live

3349
01:55:50,850 --> 01:55:53,590
and refreshing on the fly to see stuff

3350
01:55:53,590 --> 01:55:54,450
as it pops in.

3351
01:55:54,610 --> 01:55:57,170
And again, on those modern podcast apps, just

3352
01:55:57,170 --> 01:55:59,490
watch along as the art changes.

3353
01:56:00,010 --> 01:56:02,590
Dreb Scott does that expertly for us every

3354
01:56:02,590 --> 01:56:04,630
single show and it's highly appreciated.

3355
01:56:05,590 --> 01:56:08,110
Now on to the treasure part of our

3356
01:56:08,110 --> 01:56:09,350
time, talent, and treasure.

3357
01:56:09,450 --> 01:56:11,070
The three T's of value for value, which

3358
01:56:11,070 --> 01:56:11,870
is the only way it works.

3359
01:56:11,910 --> 01:56:13,730
We'd like to close the loop by reading

3360
01:56:13,730 --> 01:56:14,430
notes for people.

3361
01:56:15,070 --> 01:56:16,830
We thank everybody, $50 and above.

3362
01:56:16,830 --> 01:56:19,590
If you donate $200 for a show, you

3363
01:56:19,590 --> 01:56:21,230
become an associate executive producer.

3364
01:56:21,410 --> 01:56:23,530
This is an absolutely real credit.

3365
01:56:23,710 --> 01:56:24,810
You can use it anywhere.

3366
01:56:25,110 --> 01:56:25,850
Credits are accepted.

3367
01:56:25,970 --> 01:56:27,110
I got a note from one of our

3368
01:56:27,110 --> 01:56:27,470
producers.

3369
01:56:27,550 --> 01:56:28,750
He was a little mad.

3370
01:56:29,150 --> 01:56:31,930
He's like, Curry, I don't understand it.

3371
01:56:32,030 --> 01:56:33,850
I became an associate executive producer.

3372
01:56:34,050 --> 01:56:36,550
I'm still not on imdb.com.

3373
01:56:40,270 --> 01:56:41,250
That's a good one.

3374
01:56:41,430 --> 01:56:42,910
We don't do it for you.

3375
01:56:43,110 --> 01:56:46,110
You know, you gotta do your own account

3376
01:56:46,110 --> 01:56:48,470
and he's like, Oh, and then he emails

3377
01:56:48,470 --> 01:56:48,790
me back.

3378
01:56:48,850 --> 01:56:50,090
Ha, I'm on it.

3379
01:56:50,170 --> 01:56:51,030
I'm good to go.

3380
01:56:51,130 --> 01:56:53,070
He's really happy, but no, it's not automatic.

3381
01:56:53,310 --> 01:56:55,310
We don't have access.

3382
01:56:55,610 --> 01:56:56,810
Like their dog in the show.

3383
01:56:57,090 --> 01:56:58,670
Let's see what we got today, Bill.

3384
01:56:58,870 --> 01:57:00,370
Oh, these guys, let me write it down.

3385
01:57:00,450 --> 01:57:01,430
Put it in there for them.

3386
01:57:01,430 --> 01:57:03,490
It's like we have access to the API,

3387
01:57:03,770 --> 01:57:05,510
you know, it just hit a button and

3388
01:57:05,510 --> 01:57:06,050
you're in there.

3389
01:57:06,110 --> 01:57:06,390
No.

3390
01:57:07,250 --> 01:57:08,850
So not only do you get that credit,

3391
01:57:08,890 --> 01:57:11,290
which you can put yourself on imdb.com

3392
01:57:11,290 --> 01:57:12,950
because they recognize it as a true show

3393
01:57:12,950 --> 01:57:13,530
business credit.

3394
01:57:13,590 --> 01:57:14,350
We'll read your note.

3395
01:57:14,350 --> 01:57:16,410
Same goes for $300 or above.

3396
01:57:16,570 --> 01:57:18,070
Only then you get the coveted title of

3397
01:57:18,070 --> 01:57:19,730
executive producer for this episode.

3398
01:57:20,150 --> 01:57:21,130
And we will read your note.

3399
01:57:21,230 --> 01:57:23,170
We kick it off with Carrie Cates, who's

3400
01:57:23,170 --> 01:57:26,390
in Gainesville, Texas, $500 and says, ITM gentlemen,

3401
01:57:26,810 --> 01:57:28,010
you are the best.

3402
01:57:28,370 --> 01:57:29,990
Keep up the amazing work.

3403
01:57:30,330 --> 01:57:31,590
He wants a de-douching.

3404
01:57:33,290 --> 01:57:35,010
You've been de-douched.

3405
01:57:35,150 --> 01:57:37,050
And along with that, a double up karma.

3406
01:57:37,170 --> 01:57:38,210
We are happy to oblige.

3407
01:57:38,550 --> 01:57:41,490
You've got double up karma.

3408
01:57:43,830 --> 01:57:47,210
Well, Carrie's note was short and sweet, but

3409
01:57:47,210 --> 01:57:51,810
I think Mike Topser from Fairmont, West Virginia,

3410
01:57:52,730 --> 01:57:55,490
also $500, no jingles, no karma.

3411
01:57:55,690 --> 01:57:56,510
Thanks, John and Adam.

3412
01:57:56,870 --> 01:57:59,030
Mike in Fairmont, West Virginia.

3413
01:57:59,250 --> 01:58:00,150
A beautiful one.

3414
01:58:00,570 --> 01:58:03,170
Jared Hardegree, Hardegree, yes.

3415
01:58:03,350 --> 01:58:08,290
Edmond, Oklahoma, comes close with 350 and 93

3416
01:58:08,290 --> 01:58:08,830
cents.

3417
01:58:09,250 --> 01:58:10,210
No jingles, gents.

3418
01:58:10,310 --> 01:58:11,430
Just keep up the good fight.

3419
01:58:11,430 --> 01:58:13,870
From Jared in Edmond, Oklahoma.

3420
01:58:13,970 --> 01:58:14,630
Thank you, Jared.

3421
01:58:15,290 --> 01:58:17,210
And now they start to get longer.

3422
01:58:18,270 --> 01:58:25,330
Starting with Mark Kachansky in Aurora, Colorado, $348

3423
01:58:25,330 --> 01:58:29,830
.90. This donation of $348.90 should complete

3424
01:58:29,830 --> 01:58:30,530
my knighthood.

3425
01:58:31,210 --> 01:58:32,670
I'd like to be known as Sir Red

3426
01:58:32,670 --> 01:58:36,850
Devil, and I'd like Sapporo and sushi at

3427
01:58:36,850 --> 01:58:37,630
the round table.

3428
01:58:38,190 --> 01:58:40,490
Can I get a Trump's Jobs Karma for

3429
01:58:40,490 --> 01:58:41,870
my son, Ryan?

3430
01:58:42,490 --> 01:58:43,770
And the following jingles.

3431
01:58:44,330 --> 01:58:45,930
She looks like she stinks.

3432
01:58:46,410 --> 01:58:48,230
Now, do we have that one?

3433
01:58:48,670 --> 01:58:49,970
Yeah, you clipped it.

3434
01:58:50,050 --> 01:58:50,830
You clipped it out.

3435
01:58:50,990 --> 01:58:52,450
No, but it wasn't stinks.

3436
01:58:52,770 --> 01:58:53,270
It was...

3437
01:58:53,270 --> 01:58:55,630
Yeah, she looks like she stinks is exactly

3438
01:58:55,630 --> 01:58:56,370
what it was.

3439
01:58:56,450 --> 01:58:58,030
Because I can't find it now.

3440
01:58:58,090 --> 01:58:59,490
That's why I'm confused.

3441
01:58:59,630 --> 01:59:00,850
No, it was something else.

3442
01:59:01,770 --> 01:59:03,790
Well, you may have titled it something else,

3443
01:59:03,830 --> 01:59:04,830
but that's what I said.

3444
01:59:05,130 --> 01:59:07,310
She looks like she stinks.

3445
01:59:08,110 --> 01:59:11,390
Followed by due to climate change, which is

3446
01:59:11,390 --> 01:59:12,830
a sensible combination.

3447
01:59:13,390 --> 01:59:14,350
Thanks for everything you do.

3448
01:59:14,810 --> 01:59:15,930
Here's to four more years.

3449
01:59:17,770 --> 01:59:19,790
Well, can you say she looks like she

3450
01:59:19,790 --> 01:59:20,110
stinks?

3451
01:59:20,190 --> 01:59:20,870
Because I can't find it.

3452
01:59:20,870 --> 01:59:21,710
I have to, I will.

3453
01:59:21,790 --> 01:59:22,590
All right.

3454
01:59:23,310 --> 01:59:25,130
She looks like she stinks.

3455
01:59:25,350 --> 01:59:26,610
Due to climate change.

3456
01:59:31,270 --> 01:59:32,930
You've got karma.

3457
01:59:33,210 --> 01:59:34,750
I'm sorry, I don't know what happened to

3458
01:59:34,750 --> 01:59:34,850
it.

3459
01:59:35,550 --> 01:59:36,790
I must have mislabeled it.

3460
01:59:38,110 --> 01:59:41,090
We move on to Joe Dunn, Park City,

3461
01:59:41,250 --> 01:59:41,530
Utah.

3462
01:59:41,730 --> 01:59:46,330
A favorite donation number 333.33. ITM, Adam

3463
01:59:46,330 --> 01:59:47,630
and John, please deduce me.

3464
01:59:49,350 --> 01:59:50,950
You've been deduced.

3465
01:59:51,250 --> 01:59:53,190
Not too long ago, Adam mentioned that he

3466
01:59:53,190 --> 01:59:55,270
may never go on a ski vacation again.

3467
01:59:55,450 --> 01:59:57,030
Yeah, I'm not going to ski because I'm,

3468
01:59:57,150 --> 01:59:58,350
you know, I'm going to break something.

3469
01:59:58,990 --> 02:00:00,690
Here in Park City, that kind of thinking

3470
02:00:00,690 --> 02:00:01,650
is just weird.

3471
02:00:02,330 --> 02:00:04,390
Skiing is a lifelong sport that brings families

3472
02:00:04,390 --> 02:00:06,890
together while building skills and having fun.

3473
02:00:07,450 --> 02:00:09,050
If you're a skier and want to improve

3474
02:00:09,050 --> 02:00:11,730
your skills, check out my YouTube channel, Ski

3475
02:00:11,730 --> 02:00:12,870
Dad TV.

3476
02:00:13,390 --> 02:00:16,650
As an NCAA All-American ski racer and

3477
02:00:16,650 --> 02:00:20,330
now fully certified ski instructor, I'll show you

3478
02:00:20,330 --> 02:00:23,090
how to shred and show the joys of

3479
02:00:23,090 --> 02:00:24,430
being a ski dad.

3480
02:00:24,810 --> 02:00:27,370
I think I saw his, I think I

3481
02:00:27,370 --> 02:00:28,650
saw him with his little kid.

3482
02:00:30,570 --> 02:00:32,330
That's truly coincidental.

3483
02:00:32,470 --> 02:00:33,850
I think I came across that video.

3484
02:00:34,250 --> 02:00:35,610
Do you want to touch your hip to

3485
02:00:35,610 --> 02:00:36,810
the snow while carving?

3486
02:00:37,430 --> 02:00:37,570
No.

3487
02:00:38,330 --> 02:00:40,450
Then check out Ski Dad TV where you

3488
02:00:40,450 --> 02:00:42,810
can get the best ski teaching content on

3489
02:00:42,810 --> 02:00:43,270
YouTube.

3490
02:00:43,810 --> 02:00:44,590
Ski Dad TV.

3491
02:00:45,430 --> 02:00:47,490
R2D2 Virality Karma, please.

3492
02:00:48,910 --> 02:00:50,150
Says Joe Dunn.

3493
02:00:50,350 --> 02:00:51,330
All right, Joe Dunn.

3494
02:00:51,470 --> 02:00:52,230
Good job, brother.

3495
02:00:52,470 --> 02:00:53,130
You thought.

3496
02:00:55,770 --> 02:00:56,110
Karma.

3497
02:00:56,350 --> 02:00:57,070
I love it.

3498
02:00:57,890 --> 02:00:58,790
Good one.

3499
02:01:01,020 --> 02:01:04,100
Baron Steve Banstra in Nashville, Tennessee.

3500
02:01:04,320 --> 02:01:04,720
Three, three.

3501
02:01:04,840 --> 02:01:06,380
He got upgraded today.

3502
02:01:06,540 --> 02:01:06,820
Yes.

3503
02:01:06,920 --> 02:01:07,260
Nice.

3504
02:01:07,260 --> 02:01:08,560
ITM Gents.

3505
02:01:09,300 --> 02:01:12,280
This donation not only elevates me to Viscount,

3506
02:01:12,440 --> 02:01:15,080
but also puts me ahead of Dana Brunetti

3507
02:01:15,080 --> 02:01:18,480
on the NA producer list, according to IMDb

3508
02:01:18,480 --> 02:01:19,920
and the Mueller Report.

3509
02:01:21,340 --> 02:01:23,000
Steve Banstra, Baron.

3510
02:01:23,100 --> 02:01:25,780
Now, Viscount of BNA Boogity.

3511
02:01:25,980 --> 02:01:27,840
Oh, he's of BNA.

3512
02:01:28,020 --> 02:01:29,020
Whatever BNA is.

3513
02:01:29,260 --> 02:01:29,360
Yes.

3514
02:01:29,680 --> 02:01:31,500
Boogity, Boogity Jingle, please.

3515
02:01:39,540 --> 02:01:41,680
Sir Haggis is in Sarasota, Florida.

3516
02:01:41,860 --> 02:01:44,760
Also 333.33. So he gets an executive

3517
02:01:44,760 --> 02:01:45,360
producer credit.

3518
02:01:45,460 --> 02:01:46,760
ITM gentlemen, hope all is well.

3519
02:01:47,220 --> 02:01:48,980
This donation is to celebrate two birthdays.

3520
02:01:49,180 --> 02:01:51,300
Firstly, my brother whose birthday was on 4

3521
02:01:51,300 --> 02:01:51,700
-20.

3522
02:01:52,120 --> 02:01:54,460
Sir Ramen Noodles had his 44th jaunt around

3523
02:01:54,460 --> 02:01:54,840
the sun.

3524
02:01:54,920 --> 02:01:56,000
I want to wish him a very happy

3525
02:01:56,000 --> 02:01:56,420
birthday.

3526
02:01:56,780 --> 02:01:57,460
I love you, mate.

3527
02:01:57,860 --> 02:02:00,340
Secondly, and more self-importantly, I am celebrating

3528
02:02:00,340 --> 02:02:02,620
my 50th journey around said sun.

3529
02:02:02,780 --> 02:02:05,040
So please put Sir Ramen Noodles and Sir

3530
02:02:05,040 --> 02:02:06,100
Haggis on the birthday list.

3531
02:02:06,180 --> 02:02:06,780
You are there.

3532
02:02:07,240 --> 02:02:08,260
I would also like to give a quick

3533
02:02:08,260 --> 02:02:09,600
shout out to my two boys who are

3534
02:02:09,600 --> 02:02:11,200
my greatest accomplishment in life.

3535
02:02:11,560 --> 02:02:14,400
So to my Hamish and Ronan, you are

3536
02:02:14,400 --> 02:02:15,540
my entire world.

3537
02:02:15,620 --> 02:02:16,860
And I love you so much.

3538
02:02:17,140 --> 02:02:18,580
I couldn't be more proud as a dad

3539
02:02:18,580 --> 02:02:20,120
to watch you become young men.

3540
02:02:20,680 --> 02:02:21,860
I tried to come up with some witty

3541
02:02:21,860 --> 02:02:24,000
jingle combo, but I'll just settle on some

3542
02:02:24,000 --> 02:02:26,560
karma for everyone out there in the immortal

3543
02:02:26,560 --> 02:02:27,760
words of Bill Hicks.

3544
02:02:27,820 --> 02:02:29,660
Remember, it's just a ride.

3545
02:02:30,020 --> 02:02:31,740
Hugs and kisses, Sir Haggis.

3546
02:02:32,080 --> 02:02:33,500
All right, Sir Haggis, thank you.

3547
02:02:34,040 --> 02:02:35,620
You've got karma.

3548
02:02:37,040 --> 02:02:39,240
Now we have, we go to the associate

3549
02:02:39,240 --> 02:02:42,740
executive producers with our first donation in that

3550
02:02:42,740 --> 02:02:47,060
category from a downer named Jack DeAngelis in

3551
02:02:47,060 --> 02:02:48,000
Emmett, Idaho.

3552
02:02:48,380 --> 02:02:49,400
250 bucks.

3553
02:02:50,080 --> 02:02:53,000
And he says, we need a Great Depression.

3554
02:02:53,680 --> 02:02:56,220
This nation needs to be humbled to be

3555
02:02:56,220 --> 02:02:56,700
healed.

3556
02:03:00,440 --> 02:03:01,560
That's not true.

3557
02:03:02,520 --> 02:03:04,960
God will hear our prayers and heal our

3558
02:03:04,960 --> 02:03:05,200
land.

3559
02:03:05,300 --> 02:03:07,260
That's how you need to think, brother.

3560
02:03:07,840 --> 02:03:09,560
Duke, Sir Dr. Sharky.

3561
02:03:09,640 --> 02:03:11,020
There he is, Jackson, Tennessee.

3562
02:03:11,460 --> 02:03:12,700
Hey, I haven't heard from him forever.

3563
02:03:12,860 --> 02:03:15,720
He's back, 234.56. John and Adam, you

3564
02:03:15,720 --> 02:03:17,520
continue to be the source of sanity in

3565
02:03:17,520 --> 02:03:19,200
this increasingly insane world.

3566
02:03:19,860 --> 02:03:22,060
Karma of protection as I travel to the

3567
02:03:22,060 --> 02:03:23,560
grand resources.

3568
02:03:24,280 --> 02:03:25,100
The grand resources?

3569
02:03:25,220 --> 02:03:26,160
What's the grand resources?

3570
02:03:26,680 --> 02:03:27,420
I have no idea.

3571
02:03:27,920 --> 02:03:28,680
Okay, Duke.

3572
02:03:28,820 --> 02:03:30,160
To see the grand resources.

3573
02:03:30,440 --> 02:03:31,420
Oh, to see the grand resources.

3574
02:03:31,500 --> 02:03:32,980
What are the grand resources, I wonder?

3575
02:03:33,400 --> 02:03:34,900
Anyway, he signs off.

3576
02:03:35,020 --> 02:03:36,180
Duke, Sir Dr. Sharky.

3577
02:03:36,180 --> 02:03:37,480
Lord of Mars.

3578
02:03:37,900 --> 02:03:39,340
He's going to Mars.

3579
02:03:39,500 --> 02:03:41,020
You've got karma.

3580
02:03:42,300 --> 02:03:43,580
Ronan, Colorado.

3581
02:03:43,820 --> 02:03:47,260
In Colorado Springs, 222.22 is a row

3582
02:03:47,260 --> 02:03:47,720
of ducks.

3583
02:03:48,500 --> 02:03:51,460
Happy birthday to John, same age as me.

3584
02:03:51,700 --> 02:03:52,520
Go boomers.

3585
02:03:53,160 --> 02:03:56,740
Number one rule for boomers is don't fall

3586
02:03:56,740 --> 02:03:57,340
down.

3587
02:03:58,060 --> 02:04:00,520
Hello to the nice people of the Antelope

3588
02:04:00,520 --> 02:04:07,320
Ridge Meadery that apparently provided his libation for

3589
02:04:07,320 --> 02:04:10,100
the day, that provided the space for our

3590
02:04:10,100 --> 02:04:10,620
meetup.

3591
02:04:10,940 --> 02:04:11,860
Love you both.

3592
02:04:12,380 --> 02:04:13,120
Mean it.

3593
02:04:13,540 --> 02:04:16,680
And coming in with 204.24, it's Eli

3594
02:04:16,680 --> 02:04:19,200
the Coffee Guy who says, life imitates art

3595
02:04:19,200 --> 02:04:21,140
as the movie Conclave is now at the

3596
02:04:21,140 --> 02:04:22,000
top of the charts.

3597
02:04:22,480 --> 02:04:23,060
That's right.

3598
02:04:23,480 --> 02:04:25,720
Plus, according to the internet theorist, we only

3599
02:04:25,720 --> 02:04:27,460
get one more pope before the end is

3600
02:04:27,460 --> 02:04:27,660
nigh.

3601
02:04:27,760 --> 02:04:28,600
See, he's heard about it.

3602
02:04:29,160 --> 02:04:31,500
Brings to mind the peace dove attacked by

3603
02:04:31,500 --> 02:04:33,720
a crow at the coronation of Pope Francis.

3604
02:04:33,820 --> 02:04:35,160
I forgot about that.

3605
02:04:35,240 --> 02:04:36,120
Do you remember that?

3606
02:04:37,280 --> 02:04:39,440
The dove was flying and the crow was...

3607
02:04:39,440 --> 02:04:39,920
Does that make sense?

3608
02:04:40,580 --> 02:04:43,780
I don't remember it, but it does a

3609
02:04:43,780 --> 02:04:46,640
lot of symbolism going on.

3610
02:04:47,940 --> 02:04:50,440
Still, the world is filled with small miracles.

3611
02:04:50,700 --> 02:04:53,700
RFK bans chemical food dyes as Klaus Schwab's

3612
02:04:53,700 --> 02:04:55,600
resignation from the WEF.

3613
02:04:55,700 --> 02:04:57,540
What an exciting time to be alive.

3614
02:04:57,540 --> 02:05:00,280
And that calls for exciting coffee.

3615
02:05:01,040 --> 02:05:04,660
Visit gigawattcoffeeroasters.com and use code ITM20 for

3616
02:05:04,660 --> 02:05:05,940
20% off your order.

3617
02:05:06,040 --> 02:05:08,980
Stay caffeinated, says Eli the Coffee Guy.

3618
02:05:11,750 --> 02:05:12,350
Schweddy.

3619
02:05:12,970 --> 02:05:13,570
Schweddy.

3620
02:05:13,650 --> 02:05:15,770
S-C-H-W-E-D-D-Y

3621
02:05:15,770 --> 02:05:17,350
in McKinney, Texas.

3622
02:05:17,550 --> 02:05:18,110
McKinney.

3623
02:05:18,650 --> 02:05:20,990
M-C-K-N-N-E-Y.

3624
02:05:21,430 --> 02:05:23,270
Hey, John and Adam, is it time of

3625
02:05:23,270 --> 02:05:25,850
the year again for the annual tax return

3626
02:05:25,850 --> 02:05:26,270
donation?

3627
02:05:26,290 --> 02:05:26,670
Yes.

3628
02:05:26,930 --> 02:05:28,230
Annual tax return donation.

3629
02:05:28,350 --> 02:05:28,990
I'll repeat that.

3630
02:05:28,990 --> 02:05:29,470
Yes.

3631
02:05:29,790 --> 02:05:32,350
This plus layaway plan should give me a

3632
02:05:32,350 --> 02:05:34,790
spot at the coveted round table giving back

3633
02:05:34,790 --> 02:05:37,590
and thanking you for what you do.

3634
02:05:37,950 --> 02:05:38,710
Title request.

3635
02:05:39,090 --> 02:05:39,350
Sure.

3636
02:05:39,690 --> 02:05:39,890
Sir.

3637
02:05:40,110 --> 02:05:40,370
Sure.

3638
02:05:40,930 --> 02:05:41,210
Sir.

3639
02:05:41,530 --> 02:05:42,110
Schweddy.

3640
02:05:43,050 --> 02:05:43,770
Request.

3641
02:05:44,430 --> 02:05:47,770
Bell Haven Scottish Ale on tap.

3642
02:05:48,550 --> 02:05:49,210
Of course.

3643
02:05:49,810 --> 02:05:50,390
Of course.

3644
02:05:50,890 --> 02:05:51,410
Jingles.

3645
02:05:51,510 --> 02:05:53,370
No sweat off my balls.

3646
02:05:53,610 --> 02:05:55,030
And goat karma.

3647
02:05:55,650 --> 02:05:57,510
It's no sweat off my balls.

3648
02:05:58,390 --> 02:06:01,210
You've got karma.

3649
02:06:01,310 --> 02:06:01,810
You nailed it.

3650
02:06:01,910 --> 02:06:02,510
It was identical.

3651
02:06:02,870 --> 02:06:03,430
It was identical.

3652
02:06:05,150 --> 02:06:07,270
And almost at the end here with $200,

3653
02:06:07,670 --> 02:06:09,650
as she always does, just like Eli the

3654
02:06:09,650 --> 02:06:11,790
Coffee Guy coming in with $200, she says,

3655
02:06:11,890 --> 02:06:12,810
jobs karma, please.

3656
02:06:13,290 --> 02:06:15,290
And for a competitive edge with a resume

3657
02:06:15,290 --> 02:06:18,270
that gets results, go to ImageMakersInc.com.

3658
02:06:18,350 --> 02:06:21,090
That's ImageMakersInc with a K for all of

3659
02:06:21,090 --> 02:06:23,290
your executive resume and job search needs.

3660
02:06:23,290 --> 02:06:26,130
And work with Linda Liu, Duchess of Jobs

3661
02:06:26,130 --> 02:06:27,430
and writer of resumes.

3662
02:06:27,770 --> 02:06:31,110
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.

3663
02:06:31,150 --> 02:06:32,770
Let's vote for jobs.

3664
02:06:35,970 --> 02:06:38,330
David Selden in Arlington, Texas.

3665
02:06:39,950 --> 02:06:40,650
That's Arlington.

3666
02:06:40,890 --> 02:06:41,310
$200.

3667
02:06:41,750 --> 02:06:42,990
ITM get most slaves.

3668
02:06:43,130 --> 02:06:45,330
I think I'm a knight, but we'll have

3669
02:06:45,330 --> 02:06:46,990
to look that up some other time.

3670
02:06:47,110 --> 02:06:48,370
Been over seven years.

3671
02:06:48,510 --> 02:06:49,410
Please de-douche.

3672
02:06:51,010 --> 02:06:52,810
You've been de-douched.

3673
02:06:53,510 --> 02:06:54,470
Over seven years.

3674
02:06:54,610 --> 02:06:56,590
I doubt if you've made it yet with

3675
02:06:56,590 --> 02:06:56,870
$200.

3676
02:06:57,230 --> 02:06:59,690
But Adam Curry has said words matter.

3677
02:06:59,850 --> 02:07:01,810
At Pocket Verses, we agree.

3678
02:07:02,910 --> 02:07:05,450
In fact, words are way more powerful than

3679
02:07:05,450 --> 02:07:06,390
we can understand.

3680
02:07:06,570 --> 02:07:08,870
God's words are the most powerful, so we've

3681
02:07:08,870 --> 02:07:11,790
created a small shareable cards with Bible verses

3682
02:07:11,790 --> 02:07:12,910
to encourage you and others.

3683
02:07:13,010 --> 02:07:14,090
Send a copy to Adam.

3684
02:07:14,490 --> 02:07:17,890
Check out pocketverses.org, a completely free service.

3685
02:07:18,370 --> 02:07:18,830
It's free.

3686
02:07:19,210 --> 02:07:19,810
Good news.

3687
02:07:19,930 --> 02:07:20,630
Fits in your pocket.

3688
02:07:20,630 --> 02:07:22,430
Carry God's word with you and pass it

3689
02:07:22,430 --> 02:07:23,230
on with joy.

3690
02:07:23,350 --> 02:07:24,350
Get yours free.

3691
02:07:25,070 --> 02:07:25,830
Free, it's free.

3692
02:07:25,930 --> 02:07:26,190
It's free.

02:07:26,430 --> 02:07:27,490
At pocketverses.org.

3694
02:07:27,590 --> 02:07:29,130
Visit pocketverses.org.

3695
02:07:30,190 --> 02:07:30,670
Okay.

3696
02:07:31,070 --> 02:07:32,590
I think the message is clear.

3697
02:07:33,470 --> 02:07:35,070
Did someone tell them that if you say

3698
02:07:35,070 --> 02:07:36,410
it three times, people remember?

3699
02:07:36,650 --> 02:07:38,270
Is that what's going on here?

3700
02:07:39,090 --> 02:07:39,590
It could be.

3701
02:07:39,750 --> 02:07:39,910
Yeah.

3702
02:07:40,150 --> 02:07:42,770
And finally, our last associate executive producer is

3703
02:07:42,770 --> 02:07:43,810
Trevor Malkinson.

3704
02:07:44,230 --> 02:07:45,270
He's in Courtenay.

3705
02:07:45,290 --> 02:07:48,230
That's in British Columbia, Canada.

3706
02:07:48,790 --> 02:07:50,530
And he says, Dear John and Adam, my

3707
02:07:50,530 --> 02:07:51,850
wife and I have been saying for a

3708
02:07:51,850 --> 02:07:54,930
while that it was time to donate to

3709
02:07:54,930 --> 02:07:55,590
the show again.

3710
02:07:56,150 --> 02:07:57,730
And then I bought a beer the other

3711
02:07:57,730 --> 02:08:03,510
day, and my bill was $33.33. Yeah,

3712
02:08:03,610 --> 02:08:04,190
it got shipped.

3713
02:08:04,370 --> 02:08:05,830
That's one beer in Canada.

3714
02:08:06,810 --> 02:08:09,990
Man, that Canadian dollar is devalued.

3715
02:08:10,530 --> 02:08:11,610
Anyway, I knew it was time.

3716
02:08:11,710 --> 02:08:13,630
I'm in Canada, and Trump has many sheeple

3717
02:08:13,630 --> 02:08:14,710
here, very activated.

3718
02:08:14,990 --> 02:08:16,770
It's both hilarious and pathetic.

3719
02:08:16,770 --> 02:08:19,090
Anyway, thanks for everything you do on the

3720
02:08:19,090 --> 02:08:19,350
show.

3721
02:08:19,670 --> 02:08:21,410
Can you call out Chuck as a douchebag?

3722
02:08:23,330 --> 02:08:25,690
And for jingles, can I please get big,

3723
02:08:25,870 --> 02:08:28,790
beautiful dumps and the howling dog that sounds

3724
02:08:28,790 --> 02:08:29,630
like Pink Floyd?

3725
02:08:29,810 --> 02:08:32,570
Cheers, says Trevor on Vancouver Islands.

3726
02:08:33,090 --> 02:08:34,290
They did dumps.

3727
02:08:34,670 --> 02:08:35,790
They call them dumps.

3728
02:08:35,810 --> 02:08:37,190
Big, massive dumps.

3729
02:08:46,370 --> 02:08:49,910
And that concludes our executive and associate executive

3730
02:08:49,910 --> 02:08:56,390
producers for episode 1758 already.

3731
02:08:56,570 --> 02:08:58,590
Oh, man, it's really moving along.

3732
02:08:58,690 --> 02:09:01,050
17 years, 1700 shows.

3733
02:09:01,170 --> 02:09:02,730
We are just killing it, I tell you.

3734
02:09:03,170 --> 02:09:04,750
We will be thanking the rest of the

3735
02:09:04,750 --> 02:09:06,570
people who donated to the show today and

3736
02:09:06,570 --> 02:09:09,130
$50 or more in our second segment.

3737
02:09:09,570 --> 02:09:11,110
And we'd like to remind everybody, if you

3738
02:09:11,110 --> 02:09:14,030
go to noagendadonations.com, there are many opportunities

3739
02:09:14,030 --> 02:09:15,650
for you to become a knight, a dame.

3740
02:09:16,890 --> 02:09:19,150
Everything is on the website, including how you

3741
02:09:19,150 --> 02:09:20,830
become a layaway knight.

3742
02:09:20,890 --> 02:09:23,290
You can do this over many years, and

3743
02:09:23,290 --> 02:09:24,750
eventually you do get to that level.

3744
02:09:24,870 --> 02:09:25,630
Many people do.

3745
02:09:25,910 --> 02:09:27,490
Actually, we have a couple of knights coming

3746
02:09:27,490 --> 02:09:28,130
up in a moment.

3747
02:09:28,550 --> 02:09:30,130
And you can also hit us up with

3748
02:09:30,130 --> 02:09:33,070
a sustaining donation, which means any amount, any

3749
02:09:33,070 --> 02:09:33,450
frequency.

3750
02:09:33,710 --> 02:09:34,230
You choose.

3751
02:09:34,310 --> 02:09:34,950
You make it up.

3752
02:09:35,450 --> 02:09:36,490
noagendadonations.com.

3753
02:09:36,590 --> 02:09:37,250
Thank you again.

3754
02:09:37,510 --> 02:09:38,030
Ouch.

3755
02:09:38,270 --> 02:09:40,430
Thank you again for supporting the best podcast

3756
02:09:40,430 --> 02:09:41,030
in the universe.

3757
02:09:41,330 --> 02:09:42,870
Episode 1758.

3758
02:09:43,030 --> 02:09:44,270
Our formula is this.

3759
02:09:46,490 --> 02:09:47,570
We hit people in the mouth.

3760
02:09:55,310 --> 02:09:57,490
It's no sweat off my balls.

3761
02:10:02,790 --> 02:10:03,770
Uh, Hegseth.

3762
02:10:03,870 --> 02:10:04,270
Hegseth.

3763
02:10:04,330 --> 02:10:05,710
I got a couple of Hegseth clips.

3764
02:10:05,970 --> 02:10:08,330
Can we do a little interregnum for something

3765
02:10:08,330 --> 02:10:09,110
I want to do?

3766
02:10:09,490 --> 02:10:10,550
An interregnum?

3767
02:10:10,670 --> 02:10:11,770
An interregnum?

3768
02:10:11,930 --> 02:10:13,950
What exactly is an interregnum?

3769
02:10:14,230 --> 02:10:15,510
It's, you know, just a break.

3770
02:10:16,370 --> 02:10:16,710
Okay.

3771
02:10:18,350 --> 02:10:20,330
I ran into this clip while I was

3772
02:10:20,330 --> 02:10:21,710
going through the archives.

3773
02:10:22,370 --> 02:10:22,790
Uh-huh.

3774
02:10:23,030 --> 02:10:23,710
Our archives?

3775
02:10:23,830 --> 02:10:24,310
Show archives?

3776
02:10:24,650 --> 02:10:25,270
Yeah, our archives.

3777
02:10:26,390 --> 02:10:28,450
The disc of clips.

3778
02:10:28,570 --> 02:10:29,110
The disc.

3779
02:10:29,370 --> 02:10:30,430
And I just ran it because I was

3780
02:10:30,430 --> 02:10:31,250
looking for something else.

3781
02:10:31,270 --> 02:10:31,830
And I ran into this.

3782
02:10:31,830 --> 02:10:34,310
I didn't realize, I forgot all about this.

3783
02:10:34,390 --> 02:10:38,370
This was from, uh, probably 2017.

3784
02:10:39,210 --> 02:10:39,450
Mm-hmm.

3785
02:10:40,890 --> 02:10:42,750
And I don't even remember it.

3786
02:10:42,970 --> 02:10:44,790
But this is the kind of nuttiness that

3787
02:10:44,790 --> 02:10:47,050
during the first Trump administration, this is the

3788
02:10:47,050 --> 02:10:50,850
kind of screwball story that this was amongst

3789
02:10:50,850 --> 02:10:52,590
the thing where, you know, he watched Gorilla

3790
02:10:52,590 --> 02:10:56,890
TV and all the bogus nonsense that the

3791
02:10:56,890 --> 02:10:58,430
media fed us about Trump.

3792
02:10:58,610 --> 02:10:58,870
Yeah.

3793
02:10:59,430 --> 02:11:01,510
The Gorilla TV was my all-time favorite.

3794
02:11:02,050 --> 02:11:03,510
But this is one that I forgot.

3795
02:11:03,790 --> 02:11:05,850
I don't even remember, to be honest about

3796
02:11:05,850 --> 02:11:05,970
it.

3797
02:11:06,010 --> 02:11:06,870
It was so stupid.

3798
02:11:07,610 --> 02:11:10,610
This clip is the classic.

3799
02:11:10,890 --> 02:11:11,310
Mm-hmm.

3800
02:11:11,510 --> 02:11:12,830
Scream at the sky.

3801
02:11:13,490 --> 02:11:15,470
Oh, is it that time again?

3802
02:11:15,570 --> 02:11:16,330
Here we go.

3803
02:11:16,750 --> 02:11:19,350
Tonight, thousands of peoples and cities across the

3804
02:11:19,350 --> 02:11:22,990
country will scream helplessly at the sky one

3805
02:11:22,990 --> 02:11:25,730
year after the election of President Donald Trump.

3806
02:11:26,090 --> 02:11:27,930
The events are being planned on Facebook in

3807
02:11:27,930 --> 02:11:30,350
Dallas, Boston, New York, Miami, Philly, Austin, and

3808
02:11:30,350 --> 02:11:31,150
Washington State.

3809
02:11:31,570 --> 02:11:34,250
In the details section, it reads, quote, Rage,

3810
02:11:34,390 --> 02:11:36,150
rage against the dying of the light.

3811
02:11:36,290 --> 02:11:37,910
Mark the one-year anniversary of the so

3812
02:11:37,910 --> 02:11:39,750
-called election of the so-called president by

3813
02:11:39,750 --> 02:11:42,350
joining the national primal scream.

3814
02:11:42,470 --> 02:11:43,070
Howl at the sky.

3815
02:11:43,210 --> 02:11:43,770
Gnash your teeth.

3816
02:11:43,870 --> 02:11:44,490
Bang your drums.

3817
02:11:44,830 --> 02:11:46,830
And it goes on from there.

3818
02:11:47,190 --> 02:11:49,410
The Dallas event starts at 6 tonight on

3819
02:11:49,410 --> 02:11:51,910
the Continental Avenue Pedestrian Bridge.

3820
02:11:52,090 --> 02:11:54,230
But as the Facebook page itself warns, it

3821
02:11:54,230 --> 02:11:56,550
will be 48 degrees and rainy outside.

3822
02:11:56,550 --> 02:11:58,610
Matt Uris for CBS 11 News.

3823
02:12:00,510 --> 02:12:01,750
I remember this.

3824
02:12:02,850 --> 02:12:03,770
I remember it.

3825
02:12:04,630 --> 02:12:06,670
And I'm thinking we might actually have some

3826
02:12:06,670 --> 02:12:08,230
clips of the screaming, don't we?

3827
02:12:08,590 --> 02:12:09,370
There was.

3828
02:12:09,470 --> 02:12:10,850
I actually had the clip of the scream.

3829
02:12:10,910 --> 02:12:11,630
You can look it up.

3830
02:12:11,690 --> 02:12:13,670
I didn't put it on here because it

3831
02:12:13,670 --> 02:12:14,670
was pretty lame.

3832
02:12:15,310 --> 02:12:16,950
But just people screaming.

3833
02:12:17,430 --> 02:12:20,290
It just wasn't anything more than the scream

3834
02:12:20,290 --> 02:12:20,970
he just played.

3835
02:12:21,290 --> 02:12:28,110
But it's unbelievable how stupid this TDS Trump

3836
02:12:28,110 --> 02:12:31,490
derangement syndrome was and is.

3837
02:12:31,670 --> 02:12:33,790
Well, we have the science to back it

3838
02:12:33,790 --> 02:12:34,850
up from JAMA.

3839
02:12:35,370 --> 02:12:37,270
Social networks spread contagion.

3840
02:12:38,130 --> 02:12:38,930
Mental illness.

3841
02:12:41,720 --> 02:12:43,500
It makes nothing but sense to me.

3842
02:12:44,820 --> 02:12:45,980
Well, it's sick.

3843
02:12:46,480 --> 02:12:48,000
No, it's sad.

3844
02:12:48,140 --> 02:12:49,780
It's sad that people get so worked up.

3845
02:12:49,840 --> 02:12:52,120
And again, it's still COVID trauma.

3846
02:12:52,860 --> 02:12:54,060
None of this has gone away.

3847
02:12:54,080 --> 02:12:55,220
This was pre-COVID.

3848
02:12:57,150 --> 02:13:01,850
No, but Trump derangement syndrome now is you

3849
02:13:01,850 --> 02:13:04,010
can you can trigger anything with anybody.

3850
02:13:04,190 --> 02:13:05,350
This was pre-COVID.

3851
02:13:05,490 --> 02:13:07,770
I want to remind you that this screaming

3852
02:13:07,770 --> 02:13:09,070
at the sky was pre-COVID.

3853
02:13:09,430 --> 02:13:11,830
Trump watching Gorilla TV was pre-COVID.

3854
02:13:12,270 --> 02:13:12,770
You're right.

3855
02:13:12,910 --> 02:13:14,750
I'm just saying that that still is.

3856
02:13:15,350 --> 02:13:16,230
OK, never mind.

3857
02:13:16,570 --> 02:13:17,210
You get what I know.

3858
02:13:17,210 --> 02:13:18,010
I understand what you're saying.

3859
02:13:18,090 --> 02:13:20,070
COVID has created another level.

3860
02:13:20,670 --> 02:13:21,730
Well, you can bring anything.

3861
02:13:21,970 --> 02:13:22,590
It was pretty bad.

3862
02:13:22,590 --> 02:13:24,130
I want the screaming to come back.

3863
02:13:24,790 --> 02:13:25,690
How do we do that?

3864
02:13:25,690 --> 02:13:27,970
I we just reinitiate this.

3865
02:13:28,150 --> 02:13:29,170
This is a reminder.

3866
02:13:29,390 --> 02:13:30,850
Maybe somebody out there will get this thing

3867
02:13:30,850 --> 02:13:31,350
going again.

3868
02:13:31,450 --> 02:13:32,410
We can start screaming.

3869
02:13:32,610 --> 02:13:34,550
But it has to be a year anniversary.

3870
02:13:34,550 --> 02:13:35,690
So it would be next.

3871
02:13:37,190 --> 02:13:38,790
January, I guess they do it.

3872
02:13:39,210 --> 02:13:40,450
Well, they can do a scream in.

3873
02:13:41,550 --> 02:13:42,230
A scream in.

3874
02:13:42,390 --> 02:13:44,450
Yeah, I think we should promote that.

3875
02:13:44,670 --> 02:13:48,470
You know, screaming, screaming, screaming, screaming, screaming.

3876
02:13:49,490 --> 02:13:51,730
We should probably put that in the concierge

3877
02:13:51,730 --> 02:13:52,050
level.

3878
02:13:54,690 --> 02:13:55,130
Yes.

3879
02:13:55,710 --> 02:13:57,750
So the bundle, the plus bundle.

3880
02:13:57,850 --> 02:14:00,330
So as you astutely put in the newsletter,

3881
02:14:00,550 --> 02:14:03,170
Signal Gate continues completely stupid.

3882
02:14:04,230 --> 02:14:05,990
The whole thing is just what?

3883
02:14:07,230 --> 02:14:09,330
And so I went to the source to

3884
02:14:09,330 --> 02:14:11,250
find out, you know, what what exactly is

3885
02:14:11,250 --> 02:14:11,610
this about?

3886
02:14:11,670 --> 02:14:12,770
Can we get some details?

3887
02:14:13,490 --> 02:14:15,990
And NPR had the most serious reporting.

3888
02:14:16,070 --> 02:14:17,930
And boy, you know, NPR, they can make

3889
02:14:17,930 --> 02:14:19,530
a story out of nothing when they have

3890
02:14:19,530 --> 02:14:19,810
nothing.

3891
02:14:19,870 --> 02:14:21,330
They got nothing, but they made a story

3892
02:14:21,330 --> 02:14:21,910
out of it anyway.

3893
02:14:21,910 --> 02:14:22,790
It's amazing.

3894
02:14:22,970 --> 02:14:24,510
We're waiting to see how, if at all,

3895
02:14:24,590 --> 02:14:27,370
President Trump addresses the leadership at the Defense

3896
02:14:27,370 --> 02:14:27,790
Department.

3897
02:14:28,370 --> 02:14:30,550
In a moment, Democratic Senator Jack Reed calls

3898
02:14:30,550 --> 02:14:33,670
for a wider investigation of Defense Secretary Pete

3899
02:14:33,670 --> 02:14:33,970
Hexeth.

3900
02:14:34,370 --> 02:14:36,230
First, we report on what the White House

3901
02:14:36,230 --> 02:14:36,710
is doing.

3902
02:14:36,950 --> 02:14:38,850
One U.S. official tells NPR that the

3903
02:14:38,850 --> 02:14:41,850
search is underway to replace Defense Secretary.

3904
02:14:42,130 --> 02:14:43,770
So they've got sources.

3905
02:14:44,510 --> 02:14:45,370
There's a search underway.

3906
02:14:45,630 --> 02:14:47,370
Deep Throat in the White House says so.

3907
02:14:47,470 --> 02:14:48,670
Pete Hexeth publicly.

3908
02:14:48,670 --> 02:14:51,430
The president is standing behind him after a

3909
02:14:51,430 --> 02:14:52,550
tumultuous week.

3910
02:14:53,110 --> 02:14:55,150
Hexeth's office fired some of his aides.

3911
02:14:55,250 --> 02:14:58,470
Then came revelations that the secretary shared details

3912
02:14:58,470 --> 02:15:00,730
of impending airstrikes in Yemen again.

3913
02:15:01,310 --> 02:15:03,750
NPR confirmed this second chat on the messaging

3914
02:15:03,750 --> 02:15:07,150
app Signal, which included Hexeth's wife, his brother

3915
02:15:07,150 --> 02:15:08,650
and his personal lawyer.

3916
02:15:09,190 --> 02:15:11,490
The first chat was with top officials and

3917
02:15:11,490 --> 02:15:13,710
a journalist who was inadvertently included.

3918
02:15:13,890 --> 02:15:15,650
NPR's Quill Lawrence is here to tell us

3919
02:15:15,650 --> 02:15:15,830
more.

3920
02:15:15,950 --> 02:15:16,450
Quill, good morning.

3921
02:15:16,570 --> 02:15:16,930
Hey, good morning.

3922
02:15:17,010 --> 02:15:17,310
Good morning.

3923
02:15:17,410 --> 02:15:17,810
Hey, good morning.

3924
02:15:17,810 --> 02:15:19,790
So we'll note that you're reporting this story

3925
02:15:19,790 --> 02:15:20,430
with our colleague.

3926
02:15:20,430 --> 02:15:22,710
I like what you do with that stuff.

3927
02:15:22,790 --> 02:15:24,630
So now you've got me doing it.

3928
02:15:25,810 --> 02:15:26,610
It's unavoidable.

3929
02:15:26,850 --> 02:15:28,730
A journalist who was inadvertently included.

3930
02:15:28,970 --> 02:15:30,670
NPR's Quill Lawrence is here to tell us

3931
02:15:30,670 --> 02:15:30,870
more.

3932
02:15:30,970 --> 02:15:31,470
Quill, good morning.

3933
02:15:31,550 --> 02:15:31,950
Hey, good morning.

3934
02:15:32,010 --> 02:15:32,330
Good morning.

3935
02:15:32,410 --> 02:15:32,830
Hey, good morning.

3936
02:15:32,930 --> 02:15:34,790
So we'll note that you're reporting this story

3937
02:15:34,790 --> 02:15:36,270
with our colleague Tom Bowman.

3938
02:15:36,310 --> 02:15:37,050
What are you guys hearing?

3939
02:15:37,230 --> 02:15:39,090
Yeah, a U.S. official told us that

3940
02:15:39,090 --> 02:15:41,970
the search has begun after this second.

3941
02:15:42,030 --> 02:15:45,090
As sources say, an official unnamed.

3942
02:15:45,090 --> 02:15:46,890
Round of headlines about Hexeth.

3943
02:15:47,110 --> 02:15:48,910
I should add that the White House has

3944
02:15:48,910 --> 02:15:51,010
said our anonymous source doesn't know what they're

3945
02:15:51,010 --> 02:15:51,790
talking about.

3946
02:15:52,370 --> 02:15:54,110
But at a Rose Garden event yesterday.

3947
02:15:54,490 --> 02:15:54,590
What?

3948
02:15:56,010 --> 02:15:57,610
That was poorly phrased.

3949
02:15:57,990 --> 02:16:00,010
The anonymous source said they didn't know what

3950
02:16:00,010 --> 02:16:00,950
they were talking about.

3951
02:16:01,290 --> 02:16:01,890
The White House.

3952
02:16:01,990 --> 02:16:02,830
The White House says.

3953
02:16:02,990 --> 02:16:03,350
No, I know.

3954
02:16:03,410 --> 02:16:04,850
But it's the way it was put together.

3955
02:16:05,750 --> 02:16:07,570
It's like the measles, you know.

3956
02:16:09,050 --> 02:16:10,110
Disinformation is spreading.

3957
02:16:10,290 --> 02:16:11,030
Yes, I got you.

3958
02:16:11,030 --> 02:16:13,550
Search has begun after this second round of

3959
02:16:13,550 --> 02:16:14,750
headlines about Hexeth.

3960
02:16:14,970 --> 02:16:16,770
I should add that the White House has

3961
02:16:16,770 --> 02:16:18,870
said our anonymous source doesn't know what they're

3962
02:16:18,870 --> 02:16:19,650
talking about.

3963
02:16:20,210 --> 02:16:22,730
But at a Rose Garden event yesterday, the

3964
02:16:22,730 --> 02:16:25,210
president stood firmly by Hexeth, at least publicly.

3965
02:16:25,770 --> 02:16:27,170
No, he's doing a great job.

3966
02:16:27,350 --> 02:16:28,350
It's just fake news.

3967
02:16:28,430 --> 02:16:29,470
It just bring up stories.

3968
02:16:29,570 --> 02:16:32,030
I guess it sounds like disgruntled employees.

3969
02:16:32,209 --> 02:16:33,830
You know, he was put there to get

3970
02:16:33,830 --> 02:16:34,969
rid of a lot of bad people.

3971
02:16:35,129 --> 02:16:36,030
And that's what he's doing.

3972
02:16:37,490 --> 02:16:38,370
Disgruntled employee.

3973
02:16:40,440 --> 02:16:43,160
You know, so besides bringing back the scream

3974
02:16:43,160 --> 02:16:45,100
circle, that's a good term for it, actually.

3975
02:16:45,320 --> 02:16:47,120
Not to scream in, but a scream circle.

3976
02:16:47,360 --> 02:16:48,379
I think we should bring that back.

3977
02:16:48,760 --> 02:16:49,780
I like scream circle.

3978
02:16:50,299 --> 02:16:50,740
Disgruntled.

3979
02:16:50,879 --> 02:16:51,879
That's a good show title, too.

3980
02:16:52,040 --> 02:16:52,500
I like it.

3981
02:16:52,559 --> 02:16:52,719
Yeah.

3982
02:16:54,100 --> 02:16:55,340
Who came up with that?

3983
02:16:56,080 --> 02:16:56,500
Net Ned.

3984
02:16:58,040 --> 02:17:00,820
Besides that, disgruntled employee.

3985
02:17:00,980 --> 02:17:03,580
You know what disgruntled employees used to do?

3986
02:17:04,260 --> 02:17:05,680
They used to go postal.

3987
02:17:06,480 --> 02:17:07,740
They used to go postal.

3988
02:17:07,799 --> 02:17:08,820
What happened to those guys?

3989
02:17:08,820 --> 02:17:10,219
What happened to those days?

3990
02:17:10,740 --> 02:17:12,820
Quill, that phrase disgruntled employees.

3991
02:17:13,400 --> 02:17:15,520
I think Hegseth used a similar phrase in

3992
02:17:15,520 --> 02:17:18,100
his public remarks about this and referred to

3993
02:17:18,100 --> 02:17:20,620
people who were fired in his office.

3994
02:17:20,760 --> 02:17:21,719
What's he talking about?

3995
02:17:22,200 --> 02:17:24,879
Yeah, there were four senior advisors to Hegseth

3996
02:17:24,879 --> 02:17:26,879
who left in just the past week.

3997
02:17:27,440 --> 02:17:30,379
Former Defense Department spokesman John Elliott resigned last

3998
02:17:30,379 --> 02:17:33,219
week and then published a quite extraordinary opinion

3999
02:17:33,219 --> 02:17:36,180
piece calling the past month at the Pentagon

4000
02:17:36,180 --> 02:17:39,240
a, quote, full blown meltdown and saying that

4001
02:17:39,240 --> 02:17:41,059
this infighting is hurting President Trump.

4002
02:17:41,160 --> 02:17:43,459
He served in Trump's first administration and appears

4003
02:17:43,459 --> 02:17:44,840
to want to continue to serve.

4004
02:17:45,299 --> 02:17:48,780
Three other Pentagon advisors, Colin Carroll, Dan Caldwell

4005
02:17:48,780 --> 02:17:51,520
and Darren Selnick were escorted out of the

4006
02:17:51,520 --> 02:17:53,900
Pentagon and accused of leaking information to the

4007
02:17:53,900 --> 02:17:54,180
press.

4008
02:17:54,719 --> 02:17:56,620
They then put out as a trio, the

4009
02:17:56,620 --> 02:17:58,600
three of them put out a joint statement

4010
02:17:58,600 --> 02:18:01,040
on X saying that their dismissal was unconscionable

4011
02:18:01,040 --> 02:18:03,299
and that they haven't even been told what

4012
02:18:03,299 --> 02:18:05,379
they stand accused of leaking.

4013
02:18:05,379 --> 02:18:07,120
All three of them served in uniform.

4014
02:18:07,260 --> 02:18:09,820
They say they understand the importance of information

4015
02:18:09,820 --> 02:18:10,480
security.

4016
02:18:11,120 --> 02:18:14,920
Caldwell and Selnick, notably, are longtime associates of

4017
02:18:14,920 --> 02:18:15,299
Hegseth.

4018
02:18:15,400 --> 02:18:17,879
They've worked with him over a decade back

4019
02:18:17,879 --> 02:18:19,799
to when he was at Concerned Veterans for

4020
02:18:19,799 --> 02:18:21,219
America Policy Group.

4021
02:18:22,620 --> 02:18:25,920
So disgruntled employees, their version of going postal

4022
02:18:25,920 --> 02:18:27,219
is, we're going to write an op-ed

4023
02:18:27,219 --> 02:18:28,320
in the New York Times.

4024
02:18:28,900 --> 02:18:29,860
News says it's no good.

4025
02:18:29,860 --> 02:18:32,860
This is the military industrial complex trying to

4026
02:18:32,860 --> 02:18:35,559
worm Hegseth out.

4027
02:18:36,299 --> 02:18:37,480
And he's the final one.

4028
02:18:37,559 --> 02:18:39,059
NPR, they really have nothing.

4029
02:18:39,520 --> 02:18:40,719
They have nothing.

4030
02:18:41,139 --> 02:18:43,020
So I'm trying to figure out what all

4031
02:18:43,020 --> 02:18:44,600
of this adds up to.

4032
02:18:44,700 --> 02:18:46,459
The White House does appear to be backing

4033
02:18:46,459 --> 02:18:49,400
Hegseth, but he's been revealed.

4034
02:18:49,540 --> 02:18:51,620
NPR has confirmed the original New York Times

4035
02:18:51,620 --> 02:18:54,860
report that there was a second chat group

4036
02:18:54,860 --> 02:18:57,260
on Signal where he was sharing information about

4037
02:18:57,260 --> 02:18:58,080
an impending attack.

4038
02:18:58,080 --> 02:18:59,719
So they don't even have a chat group?

4039
02:18:59,840 --> 02:19:01,600
They don't have, don't have screenshots like the

4040
02:19:01,600 --> 02:19:02,100
first time?

4041
02:19:02,900 --> 02:19:05,799
It's just these disgruntled employees who said that

4042
02:19:05,799 --> 02:19:06,540
in the New York Times?

4043
02:19:06,620 --> 02:19:07,840
Is that what I'm led to believe here,

4044
02:19:07,840 --> 02:19:08,020
John?

4045
02:19:09,000 --> 02:19:11,040
I think that's what you're led to believe.

4046
02:19:11,860 --> 02:19:14,200
Yeah, I mean, with the first chat group,

4047
02:19:14,260 --> 02:19:16,520
it was against Pentagon policy to use Signal

4048
02:19:16,520 --> 02:19:17,059
for that.

4049
02:19:17,160 --> 02:19:18,879
There were a lot of security issues with

4050
02:19:18,879 --> 02:19:22,020
it, discussing details of an attack hours before.

4051
02:19:22,299 --> 02:19:22,559
What's that?

4052
02:19:23,620 --> 02:19:26,320
It's news that it was Pentagon policy not

4053
02:19:26,320 --> 02:19:27,900
to use Signal, and it was the CIA

4054
02:19:27,900 --> 02:19:29,600
that provided the Signal channels.

4055
02:19:30,639 --> 02:19:32,180
I said, this is news to me.

4056
02:19:32,660 --> 02:19:34,780
Yeah, I mean, with the first chat group,

4057
02:19:34,879 --> 02:19:37,100
it was against Pentagon policy to use Signal

4058
02:19:37,100 --> 02:19:37,620
for that.

4059
02:19:37,740 --> 02:19:39,440
There were a lot of security issues with

4060
02:19:39,440 --> 02:19:42,580
it, discussing details of an attack hours before

4061
02:19:42,580 --> 02:19:44,340
the bombs hit in Yemen.

4062
02:19:44,580 --> 02:19:46,600
But the people in that chat were the

4063
02:19:46,600 --> 02:19:49,400
vice president, the secretary of state, people who

4064
02:19:49,400 --> 02:19:52,040
would need to know this second group.

4065
02:19:52,040 --> 02:19:54,400
It appears that Hexeth was just cut and

4066
02:19:54,400 --> 02:19:58,440
pasting this actionable intelligence to his wife.

4067
02:19:58,840 --> 02:20:01,300
I can't think of any conceivable need they

4068
02:20:01,300 --> 02:20:02,640
would have to know this information.

4069
02:20:03,420 --> 02:20:06,000
I'll be bluntly honest, though.

4070
02:20:06,060 --> 02:20:08,180
If this was Obama or anyone else, we

4071
02:20:08,180 --> 02:20:09,400
would have been laughing all over.

4072
02:20:09,540 --> 02:20:10,580
We wouldn't have been great.

4073
02:20:10,700 --> 02:20:12,660
These horrible people, impeach them.

4074
02:20:13,800 --> 02:20:17,200
So the guy, so his wife is on

4075
02:20:17,200 --> 02:20:17,920
the Signal chat.

4076
02:20:18,240 --> 02:20:21,380
Why isn't his wife, he sleeps with the

4077
02:20:21,380 --> 02:20:21,640
woman?

4078
02:20:22,640 --> 02:20:24,360
Yeah, and his lawyer, he sleeps with his

4079
02:20:24,360 --> 02:20:24,840
lawyer, too.

4080
02:20:24,940 --> 02:20:26,620
Well, he doesn't sleep with the lawyer, necessarily,

4081
02:20:26,900 --> 02:20:28,180
but he might.

4082
02:20:28,860 --> 02:20:31,300
But this is beyond me.

4083
02:20:31,480 --> 02:20:34,320
Now, my understanding, I tried to figure out

4084
02:20:34,320 --> 02:20:35,340
what was going on here.

4085
02:20:35,360 --> 02:20:36,840
I thought it was like because of his

4086
02:20:36,840 --> 02:20:38,060
LGBTQ thing.

4087
02:20:38,160 --> 02:20:39,900
But then I saw some analyst on one

4088
02:20:39,900 --> 02:20:41,940
of the channels going on.

4089
02:20:42,020 --> 02:20:44,400
And she said that this is all because

4090
02:20:44,400 --> 02:20:51,160
Hexeth was one of the influencers telling Trump

4091
02:20:51,160 --> 02:20:54,120
not to bomb Iran or listen to the

4092
02:20:54,120 --> 02:20:58,280
Israelis at all and to get into the

4093
02:20:58,280 --> 02:21:00,400
negotiations instead of going to war.

4094
02:21:00,500 --> 02:21:02,000
Another war in the Middle East is a

4095
02:21:02,000 --> 02:21:02,620
bad idea.

4096
02:21:03,060 --> 02:21:05,460
Hexeth was largely responsible, or at least one

4097
02:21:05,460 --> 02:21:07,640
of the voices in that regard.

4098
02:21:08,200 --> 02:21:11,280
And the Pentagon supposedly is still filled with

4099
02:21:11,280 --> 02:21:12,080
neocons.

4100
02:21:12,160 --> 02:21:13,600
And they wouldn't put up with this.

4101
02:21:13,960 --> 02:21:14,540
I believe that.

4102
02:21:14,600 --> 02:21:17,480
The thing that I thought was really strange,

4103
02:21:17,740 --> 02:21:19,760
I don't know if you've, I'm about halfway

4104
02:21:19,760 --> 02:21:22,040
through it, is that one of these guys

4105
02:21:22,040 --> 02:21:24,060
shows up on Tucker the day later.

4106
02:21:24,920 --> 02:21:27,120
Right, that one of his old associates.

4107
02:21:27,520 --> 02:21:28,000
Caldwell.

4108
02:21:28,840 --> 02:21:29,540
Yeah, Caldwell.

4109
02:21:29,740 --> 02:21:30,640
What's up with that?

4110
02:21:30,920 --> 02:21:31,940
That's strange.

4111
02:21:32,440 --> 02:21:34,800
And he, well, he makes the claim that

4112
02:21:34,800 --> 02:21:37,620
it wasn't Hexeth that fired.

4113
02:21:37,720 --> 02:21:39,140
It was like, it was part of a,

4114
02:21:39,480 --> 02:21:40,200
two things happened.

4115
02:21:40,300 --> 02:21:42,020
One, there was a cabal because he says

4116
02:21:42,020 --> 02:21:43,960
he never had the lie detector test they

4117
02:21:43,960 --> 02:21:45,560
were threatening everybody with.

4118
02:21:45,560 --> 02:21:51,980
They just rousted three of Hexeth's old pals

4119
02:21:51,980 --> 02:21:56,240
who were also against being neocons, or they're

4120
02:21:56,240 --> 02:21:57,260
against the neocons.

4121
02:21:57,560 --> 02:21:59,780
So that may have been a political move.

4122
02:22:00,160 --> 02:22:02,300
And then this Elliott guy who was actually

4123
02:22:02,300 --> 02:22:05,020
really was fired, he's the one who got

4124
02:22:05,020 --> 02:22:06,140
the New York Times piece.

4125
02:22:06,260 --> 02:22:07,820
I mean, it seems unlikely that this would,

4126
02:22:07,980 --> 02:22:10,260
unless it was all schemed out, that you're

4127
02:22:10,260 --> 02:22:11,780
going to get a New York Times op

4128
02:22:11,780 --> 02:22:14,880
-ed, you know, ready to go.

4129
02:22:14,880 --> 02:22:15,720
I mean, come on.

4130
02:22:15,900 --> 02:22:16,620
Yeah, right away.

4131
02:22:16,740 --> 02:22:18,000
I mean, if you and I had to

4132
02:22:18,000 --> 02:22:19,820
write a New York Times op-ed, it'd

4133
02:22:19,820 --> 02:22:20,900
take us a couple days.

4134
02:22:21,820 --> 02:22:23,300
Yeah, it wouldn't be the next day.

4135
02:22:23,540 --> 02:22:24,340
I mean, I wouldn't take it.

4136
02:22:24,420 --> 02:22:26,260
You could crank one out if you had

4137
02:22:26,260 --> 02:22:26,740
it already.

4138
02:22:26,900 --> 02:22:28,640
If we were going to be published in

4139
02:22:28,640 --> 02:22:30,400
the New York Times, we would take some

4140
02:22:30,400 --> 02:22:30,500
time.

4141
02:22:30,500 --> 02:22:31,440
Yeah, you would take a day or two

4142
02:22:31,440 --> 02:22:32,940
to get some work done.

4143
02:22:33,300 --> 02:22:36,340
But it would be, this is bullcrap.

4144
02:22:36,520 --> 02:22:36,620
Yeah.

4145
02:22:36,840 --> 02:22:39,200
This is, I believe it is, I think

4146
02:22:39,200 --> 02:22:41,220
there's an analyst who said that it was.

4147
02:22:41,780 --> 02:22:42,140
Bullcrap.

4148
02:22:42,920 --> 02:22:45,100
That this is all about the neocons trying

4149
02:22:45,100 --> 02:22:46,220
to, you know, and it was part of

4150
02:22:46,220 --> 02:22:48,680
the Wesley Clark group, you know, Iran is

4151
02:22:48,680 --> 02:22:49,180
last.

4152
02:22:49,400 --> 02:22:49,960
I believe it.

4153
02:22:50,200 --> 02:22:51,780
I believe that for sure.

4154
02:22:52,040 --> 02:22:53,620
They wanted to bomb Iran and it's like,

4155
02:22:53,640 --> 02:22:55,320
oh, this guy's screwing things up.

4156
02:22:55,380 --> 02:22:56,860
Yeah, he's not doing a good job.

4157
02:22:56,940 --> 02:22:58,560
He's messing around with the Houthis.

4158
02:22:59,000 --> 02:22:59,460
Stop it.

4159
02:22:59,600 --> 02:23:01,180
Go for the, go for the big cheese.

4160
02:23:02,280 --> 02:23:06,360
So then he goes on Fox and Hegseth

4161
02:23:06,360 --> 02:23:07,860
is not good at this.

4162
02:23:08,560 --> 02:23:11,720
He doesn't come across confident.

4163
02:23:12,820 --> 02:23:16,060
And then his whole defense is, it wasn't

4164
02:23:16,060 --> 02:23:17,380
confidential to start with.

4165
02:23:17,440 --> 02:23:18,880
So it doesn't make any difference who I

4166
02:23:18,880 --> 02:23:19,380
sent it to.

4167
02:23:19,540 --> 02:23:21,940
That's his, that's his defense.

4168
02:23:22,280 --> 02:23:25,900
But when Brian Kilmeade introduces you in the

4169
02:23:25,900 --> 02:23:28,340
following manner, you've got to wonder what's really

4170
02:23:28,340 --> 02:23:30,080
out there in the media space.

4171
02:23:30,300 --> 02:23:32,020
Well, that was President Trump doubling down on

4172
02:23:32,020 --> 02:23:34,440
his support for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth 24

4173
02:23:34,440 --> 02:23:37,020
hours ago, denying a New York Times report

4174
02:23:37,020 --> 02:23:40,000
about sharing sensitive information on another signal chat

4175
02:23:40,000 --> 02:23:41,220
called Team Huddle.

4176
02:23:41,460 --> 02:23:43,800
Here to set the record straight himself, the

4177
02:23:43,800 --> 02:23:46,060
former Secretary, the current Secretary of State Pete

4178
02:23:46,060 --> 02:23:48,480
Hegseth, former host right here on Fox and

4179
02:23:48,480 --> 02:23:48,580
Friends.

4180
02:23:48,700 --> 02:23:49,260
Wow.

4181
02:23:52,440 --> 02:23:53,580
How about that?

4182
02:23:53,760 --> 02:23:55,820
Former, and he's going to double down.

4183
02:23:55,980 --> 02:23:58,760
I mean, he is the Secretary of Defense,

4184
02:23:58,800 --> 02:24:00,680
but he says former Secretary of Defense.

4185
02:24:01,200 --> 02:24:02,820
How, how does he come up with that?

4186
02:24:04,080 --> 02:24:05,080
How does that happen?

4187
02:24:07,280 --> 02:24:08,600
That's a great catch.

4188
02:24:08,860 --> 02:24:11,300
Here to set the record straight himself, the

4189
02:24:11,300 --> 02:24:13,540
former Secretary, the current Secretary of State Pete

4190
02:24:13,540 --> 02:24:15,920
Hegseth, former host right here on Fox and

4191
02:24:15,920 --> 02:24:16,120
Friends.

4192
02:24:16,280 --> 02:24:17,680
Pete, great to see you, Mr. Secretary.

4193
02:24:18,020 --> 02:24:20,100
Mr. Secretary, Mr. Secretary, I'm sorry, Mr. Secretary.

4194
02:24:20,300 --> 02:24:21,340
I know you're never going to take my

4195
02:24:21,340 --> 02:24:21,780
call again.

4196
02:24:21,840 --> 02:24:23,320
You want to answer my text, Mr. Secretary.

4197
02:24:23,660 --> 02:24:26,320
So your thoughts on what's been reporting of

4198
02:24:26,320 --> 02:24:29,480
Team Huddle and the signal chat that the

4199
02:24:29,480 --> 02:24:32,020
New York Times says took place between you,

4200
02:24:32,160 --> 02:24:33,880
your wife and your brother and some others.

4201
02:24:33,880 --> 02:24:36,060
So now Hegseth is, it's just, I just

4202
02:24:36,060 --> 02:24:37,200
clipped a little bit of it.

4203
02:24:37,380 --> 02:24:39,040
He's waving his hands.

4204
02:24:39,180 --> 02:24:40,060
He's smirking.

4205
02:24:40,400 --> 02:24:41,840
He's sticking his tongue out.

4206
02:24:41,920 --> 02:24:43,280
This is not good, Pete.

4207
02:24:43,660 --> 02:24:45,380
So Brian, if you remember when this all

4208
02:24:45,380 --> 02:24:46,800
started, the first go around, because this is

4209
02:24:46,800 --> 02:24:47,840
the second go around, right?

4210
02:24:47,860 --> 02:24:49,200
They peddle old stuff.

4211
02:24:49,300 --> 02:24:50,160
They kick it back up.

4212
02:24:50,480 --> 02:24:53,720
I said repeatedly, no one's texting war plans.

4213
02:24:54,020 --> 02:24:54,760
You know why I said that?

4214
02:24:54,780 --> 02:24:56,100
Because I'm in the bowels of the Pentagon

4215
02:24:56,100 --> 02:24:57,200
every single day.

4216
02:24:57,320 --> 02:24:59,520
Just 10 minutes ago, I was looking at

4217
02:24:59,520 --> 02:25:01,440
actual war plans of things that were ongoing

4218
02:25:01,440 --> 02:25:03,200
or pending things to happen.

4219
02:25:03,200 --> 02:25:03,700
What?

4220
02:25:03,860 --> 02:25:04,260
What?

4221
02:25:05,000 --> 02:25:06,380
Is there a war pending?

4222
02:25:06,660 --> 02:25:07,240
What's happening?

4223
02:25:08,140 --> 02:25:10,580
Brian, ask him, what war plans are you

4224
02:25:10,580 --> 02:25:11,000
looking at?

4225
02:25:11,040 --> 02:25:11,980
Do you always look at war plans?

4226
02:25:12,020 --> 02:25:12,640
We have war plans.

4227
02:25:12,840 --> 02:25:13,700
Does it get, what's it going on?

4228
02:25:13,860 --> 02:25:15,880
Because that's the first thing I jump on.

4229
02:25:16,020 --> 02:25:16,160
Yeah.

4230
02:25:16,320 --> 02:25:18,480
And he sounds coked up or too much

4231
02:25:18,480 --> 02:25:19,020
coffee.

4232
02:25:19,420 --> 02:25:19,760
Yeah.

4233
02:25:19,940 --> 02:25:20,200
Yeah.

4234
02:25:20,240 --> 02:25:20,940
You know what it is?

4235
02:25:21,320 --> 02:25:21,720
Gigawatt.

4236
02:25:21,780 --> 02:25:24,060
10 minutes ago, I was looking at actual

4237
02:25:24,060 --> 02:25:25,880
war plans of things that were ongoing or

4238
02:25:25,880 --> 02:25:28,280
pending things to happen because that's on a

4239
02:25:28,280 --> 02:25:30,160
regular basis on classified systems.

4240
02:25:30,560 --> 02:25:32,460
That's my job for the war.

4241
02:25:32,460 --> 02:25:33,880
Did he say war pending?

4242
02:25:35,360 --> 02:25:37,780
Brian, if you remember when this all started

4243
02:25:37,780 --> 02:25:39,120
the first go around, because this is the

4244
02:25:39,120 --> 02:25:40,020
second go around, right?

4245
02:25:40,080 --> 02:25:41,400
They pedal old stuff.

4246
02:25:41,480 --> 02:25:42,360
They kick it back up.

4247
02:25:42,560 --> 02:25:45,940
I said repeatedly, no one's texting war plans.

4248
02:25:46,240 --> 02:25:46,960
You know why I said that?

4249
02:25:46,980 --> 02:25:48,260
Because I'm in the bowels of the Pentagon

4250
02:25:48,260 --> 02:25:49,380
every single day.

4251
02:25:49,580 --> 02:25:51,720
Just 10 minutes ago, I was looking at

4252
02:25:51,720 --> 02:25:53,620
actual war plans of things that were ongoing

4253
02:25:53,620 --> 02:25:56,280
or pending things to happen because that's on

4254
02:25:56,280 --> 02:25:58,260
a regular basis on classified systems.

4255
02:25:58,260 --> 02:26:01,440
That's my job for the war fighters, for

4256
02:26:01,440 --> 02:26:02,440
the president of the United States.

4257
02:26:02,680 --> 02:26:04,780
I look at war plans every single day.

4258
02:26:05,340 --> 02:26:07,960
What was shared over signal then and now,

4259
02:26:08,080 --> 02:26:13,240
however you characterize it, was informal, unclassified coordinations

4260
02:26:13,240 --> 02:26:14,980
for media coordination, other things.

4261
02:26:15,040 --> 02:26:16,420
That's what I've said from the beginning.

4262
02:26:17,060 --> 02:26:19,340
At the beginning, it was left wing reporters

4263
02:26:19,340 --> 02:26:21,080
from the Atlantic who got a hold of

4264
02:26:21,080 --> 02:26:23,020
it and then wanted to create a problem

4265
02:26:23,020 --> 02:26:23,580
for the president.

4266
02:26:23,700 --> 02:26:24,920
This is what it's all about.

4267
02:26:25,120 --> 02:26:26,700
Trying to get at President Trump and his

4268
02:26:26,700 --> 02:26:27,040
agenda.

4269
02:26:27,040 --> 02:26:28,560
I'm protecting the president.

4270
02:26:28,720 --> 02:26:29,740
Don't you see what I'm doing?

4271
02:26:30,560 --> 02:26:32,460
I'm protecting President Donald J.

4272
02:26:32,580 --> 02:26:32,840
Trump.

4273
02:26:33,600 --> 02:26:36,300
By the way, World War III is pending.

4274
02:26:37,040 --> 02:26:38,820
It's just pending.

4275
02:26:40,760 --> 02:26:41,600
It's pending.

4276
02:26:41,880 --> 02:26:43,880
Looking at what war plans is the first

4277
02:26:43,880 --> 02:26:44,320
thing I say.

4278
02:26:44,480 --> 02:26:48,340
Now, Hexhead was one of the reasons he

4279
02:26:48,340 --> 02:26:50,540
was picked because of his military service and

4280
02:26:50,540 --> 02:26:53,180
the fact that he is media savvy.

4281
02:26:53,180 --> 02:26:57,120
But to watch him go hysterical like this

4282
02:26:57,120 --> 02:26:58,520
is not media savvy.

4283
02:26:58,900 --> 02:26:59,820
No, at all.

4284
02:27:00,540 --> 02:27:06,060
He has to slow down and be calm

4285
02:27:06,060 --> 02:27:08,700
and be a little less hysterical.

4286
02:27:08,800 --> 02:27:10,080
He sounds like he's like an old lady.

4287
02:27:11,880 --> 02:27:14,180
Said the disgruntled podcasters.

4288
02:27:14,340 --> 02:27:15,000
That's who we are.

4289
02:27:16,380 --> 02:27:18,460
Says the disgruntled podcasters.

4290
02:27:19,120 --> 02:27:22,280
It's not a good look.

4291
02:27:23,180 --> 02:27:25,120
Should take him aside and say, you know,

4292
02:27:25,180 --> 02:27:25,920
less coffee.

4293
02:27:26,260 --> 02:27:27,200
It's not a good look.

4294
02:27:30,190 --> 02:27:32,490
Have you heard about the baby bonuses?

4295
02:27:34,030 --> 02:27:36,370
Yeah, well, this is an interesting situation, the

4296
02:27:36,370 --> 02:27:38,990
baby bonuses, because all of a sudden now

4297
02:27:38,990 --> 02:27:42,190
the left is saying this is terrible idea.

4298
02:27:42,350 --> 02:27:43,910
And the whole I hope maybe you have

4299
02:27:43,910 --> 02:27:45,550
the clips from the view.

4300
02:27:45,690 --> 02:27:46,010
I have clip.

4301
02:27:46,090 --> 02:27:48,970
No, no, no, no.

4302
02:27:48,970 --> 02:27:49,950
They condemned him.

4303
02:27:50,450 --> 02:27:52,910
Well, of course, the Trump administration is considering

4304
02:27:52,910 --> 02:27:56,130
ways to encourage more women get married and

4305
02:27:56,130 --> 02:27:59,530
have children, including a five thousand dollar baby

4306
02:27:59,530 --> 02:27:59,890
bonus.

4307
02:28:00,110 --> 02:28:01,890
Sounds like a good idea to me.

4308
02:28:02,230 --> 02:28:04,490
The money would be offered to every American

4309
02:28:04,490 --> 02:28:07,470
mother after she gives birth, an incentive aimed

4310
02:28:07,470 --> 02:28:10,850
at increasing the country's historically low birth rate.

4311
02:28:10,990 --> 02:28:12,150
Do you think they come in with those

4312
02:28:12,150 --> 02:28:12,990
big checks?

4313
02:28:13,670 --> 02:28:14,710
Good job, mom.

4314
02:28:15,070 --> 02:28:18,850
You know, with those publishing clearinghouse giant confetti,

4315
02:28:18,910 --> 02:28:21,390
which has declined since 2007.

4316
02:28:21,390 --> 02:28:25,090
That year, approximately four point three million babies

4317
02:28:25,090 --> 02:28:27,550
were born compared to three point six million

4318
02:28:27,550 --> 02:28:28,290
last year.

4319
02:28:28,590 --> 02:28:31,350
Since taking office, the administration has made an

4320
02:28:31,350 --> 02:28:33,170
effort to promote families.

4321
02:28:33,750 --> 02:28:36,370
So let me say very simply, I want

4322
02:28:36,370 --> 02:28:38,850
more babies in the United States of America.

4323
02:28:39,410 --> 02:28:41,910
Simone Collins is a pro natalist pushing for

4324
02:28:41,910 --> 02:28:45,010
easier for people to have kids.

4325
02:28:45,370 --> 02:28:47,570
As much as I personally love the idea

4326
02:28:47,570 --> 02:28:49,790
of getting five thousand dollars for another kid,

4327
02:28:49,790 --> 02:28:51,390
it's not going to move the needle and

4328
02:28:51,390 --> 02:28:53,450
it's certainly not going to be enough for

4329
02:28:53,450 --> 02:28:55,230
parents to decide that they can have that

4330
02:28:55,230 --> 02:28:56,810
next kid or their first kid.

4331
02:28:57,050 --> 02:28:57,230
All right.

4332
02:28:57,290 --> 02:28:59,030
So now that now the problem is, it's

4333
02:28:59,030 --> 02:28:59,550
not enough.

4334
02:29:00,090 --> 02:29:01,770
Trump's not doing enough.

4335
02:29:02,530 --> 02:29:05,630
What is the vice president Harris have?

4336
02:29:05,710 --> 02:29:06,910
Didn't she have three thousand?

4337
02:29:07,810 --> 02:29:08,070
Yes.

4338
02:29:08,150 --> 02:29:09,350
Thirty five hundred or something.

4339
02:29:09,470 --> 02:29:09,710
Yeah.

4340
02:29:09,850 --> 02:29:11,030
So it's not great.

4341
02:29:11,430 --> 02:29:12,150
It's not enough dead.

4342
02:29:12,230 --> 02:29:14,950
She says there are simpler and cheaper ways

4343
02:29:14,950 --> 02:29:17,510
the government can ease the burden on parents,

4344
02:29:17,510 --> 02:29:21,250
such as loosening regulations on daycare programs and

4345
02:29:21,250 --> 02:29:22,030
car seats.

4346
02:29:22,130 --> 02:29:25,130
Collins and her husband have submitted several draft

4347
02:29:25,130 --> 02:29:27,230
executive orders to the White House.

4348
02:29:28,570 --> 02:29:30,850
Loosening regulations on car seats.

4349
02:29:30,890 --> 02:29:31,030
Yeah.

4350
02:29:31,090 --> 02:29:32,530
You want the ones that kill the baby.

4351
02:29:33,570 --> 02:29:34,990
I don't know.

4352
02:29:35,010 --> 02:29:38,390
How is that better than five thousand dollars

4353
02:29:38,390 --> 02:29:39,230
cash money?

4354
02:29:39,330 --> 02:29:42,690
Sounds to me like there's a lobbying lobby

4355
02:29:42,690 --> 02:29:43,270
going on.

4356
02:29:43,330 --> 02:29:45,490
The baby car seat lobby is getting in

4357
02:29:45,490 --> 02:29:46,370
on the action here.

4358
02:29:46,370 --> 02:29:48,650
The government can ease the burden on parents,

4359
02:29:48,770 --> 02:29:52,370
such as loosening regulations on daycare programs and

4360
02:29:52,370 --> 02:29:53,150
car seats.

4361
02:29:53,510 --> 02:29:56,270
Collins and her husband have submitted several draft

4362
02:29:56,270 --> 02:29:59,130
executive orders to the White House, including one

4363
02:29:59,130 --> 02:30:01,290
that would give a national medal of motherhood

4364
02:30:01,290 --> 02:30:03,510
to women with six or more children.

4365
02:30:04,090 --> 02:30:06,410
We don't want to shame or walk.

4366
02:30:06,490 --> 02:30:06,930
Right.

4367
02:30:07,930 --> 02:30:11,310
If she can walk to women with six

4368
02:30:11,310 --> 02:30:13,670
or more children, we don't want to shame

4369
02:30:13,670 --> 02:30:15,990
or curse anyone into having children.

4370
02:30:15,990 --> 02:30:18,350
It's really a movement about making it easier

4371
02:30:18,350 --> 02:30:20,750
for people who really like having kids to

4372
02:30:20,750 --> 02:30:22,070
have the number of kids they want.

4373
02:30:22,590 --> 02:30:24,370
We have a lot of producers who have

4374
02:30:24,370 --> 02:30:25,590
eight or nine kids.

4375
02:30:26,010 --> 02:30:26,630
God bless them.

4376
02:30:27,410 --> 02:30:28,230
I know we do.

4377
02:30:28,330 --> 02:30:29,930
And you know what they never complain about?

4378
02:30:30,310 --> 02:30:32,070
You never hear them complain about money.

4379
02:30:33,010 --> 02:30:34,130
I said, we can make it work.

4380
02:30:35,530 --> 02:30:36,430
Look at Laura Ingalls.

4381
02:30:36,430 --> 02:30:38,410
The whole hand-me-down thing works fine,

4382
02:30:38,590 --> 02:30:40,070
too, that's always ignored.

4383
02:30:40,230 --> 02:30:40,390
Yeah.

4384
02:30:40,470 --> 02:30:43,110
Hand-me-down and you can start a

4385
02:30:43,110 --> 02:30:45,310
publishing company, can make all the kids work.

4386
02:30:45,990 --> 02:30:46,850
I'm sorry, that's you.

4387
02:30:47,090 --> 02:30:48,230
Put the kids to work eventually.

4388
02:30:48,230 --> 02:30:49,490
Put the kids to work, yeah.

4389
02:30:49,890 --> 02:30:52,510
Start a home business, have them all working

4390
02:30:52,510 --> 02:30:53,630
on the assembly line.

4391
02:30:54,290 --> 02:30:55,690
It's the American way.

4392
02:30:56,170 --> 02:30:57,750
You got a farm, you got kids, you

4393
02:30:57,750 --> 02:30:59,070
need kids to work on the farm.

4394
02:30:59,830 --> 02:31:00,750
I'm all for it.

4395
02:31:00,830 --> 02:31:01,750
I encourage it.

4396
02:31:02,190 --> 02:31:03,990
I will come and give you a baby

4397
02:31:03,990 --> 02:31:04,430
bonus.

4398
02:31:07,670 --> 02:31:09,350
A big medal.

4399
02:31:10,310 --> 02:31:11,910
We should have no agenda medals for that.

4400
02:31:13,530 --> 02:31:14,970
So many ideas.

4401
02:31:16,590 --> 02:31:21,270
Well, in general, of course, I know we

4402
02:31:21,270 --> 02:31:21,790
have the clips.

4403
02:31:21,890 --> 02:31:22,670
I'm not going to look them up.

4404
02:31:22,830 --> 02:31:25,510
But this was a racist idea because what

4405
02:31:25,510 --> 02:31:26,890
they're really saying is we want more white

4406
02:31:26,890 --> 02:31:27,430
babies.

4407
02:31:27,670 --> 02:31:29,350
If they have, it'll come back again.

4408
02:31:29,470 --> 02:31:30,390
They'll start saying it.

4409
02:31:31,110 --> 02:31:34,030
They're only talking about white babies and they

4410
02:31:34,030 --> 02:31:35,730
want women to be baby factories.

4411
02:31:35,910 --> 02:31:37,210
We're in the handmade sale.

4412
02:31:39,970 --> 02:31:40,950
You can bet on it.

4413
02:31:41,250 --> 02:31:41,710
It's coming.

4414
02:31:42,610 --> 02:31:43,230
Good idea.

4415
02:31:44,150 --> 02:31:45,790
That's what immigration was about.

4416
02:31:45,790 --> 02:31:49,170
The Democrat Party idea was, hey, we're not

4417
02:31:49,170 --> 02:31:49,890
having babies.

4418
02:31:50,090 --> 02:31:51,070
Open the gates.

4419
02:31:51,270 --> 02:31:51,970
Bring them on in.

4420
02:31:52,330 --> 02:31:53,090
They're cheap.

4421
02:31:53,790 --> 02:31:56,290
Whereas the cheapest labor is your own kids.

4422
02:31:57,430 --> 02:31:58,670
Five bucks a week.

4423
02:31:59,630 --> 02:32:00,370
And I'm serious.

4424
02:32:00,470 --> 02:32:01,370
I'm not being flippant.

4425
02:32:02,130 --> 02:32:04,990
It's great for kids to be doing stuff

4426
02:32:04,990 --> 02:32:05,670
around the house.

4427
02:32:05,910 --> 02:32:08,630
If you have a family, start a side

4428
02:32:08,630 --> 02:32:08,970
hustle.

4429
02:32:09,830 --> 02:32:11,990
Have them packing up products.

4430
02:32:13,230 --> 02:32:15,010
That is truly the American way.

4431
02:32:15,010 --> 02:32:16,890
I'm not being flippant, man.

4432
02:32:17,370 --> 02:32:17,930
It's true.

4433
02:32:18,830 --> 02:32:20,710
You're the living example of that.

4434
02:32:21,950 --> 02:32:25,070
Let's play this clip on food poisoning.

4435
02:32:26,090 --> 02:32:26,430
Oh.

4436
02:32:27,130 --> 02:32:27,930
That's a segway.

4437
02:32:28,090 --> 02:32:28,850
That's a downer.

4438
02:32:29,030 --> 02:32:31,950
Help us understand just how safe our food

4439
02:32:31,950 --> 02:32:33,870
is in the U.S. Sure.

4440
02:32:34,110 --> 02:32:36,030
So the U.S. food supply is...

4441
02:32:36,030 --> 02:32:37,050
Sure, said the British lady.

4442
02:32:38,050 --> 02:32:38,390
Sure.

4443
02:32:38,950 --> 02:32:39,350
Sure.

4444
02:32:39,550 --> 02:32:39,790
Sure.

4445
02:32:39,990 --> 02:32:42,450
So the U.S. food supply is generally

4446
02:32:42,450 --> 02:32:43,810
considered safe.

4447
02:32:43,810 --> 02:32:46,910
But foodborne illness is still very common.

4448
02:32:47,710 --> 02:32:50,250
There is the equivalent, essentially, of one in

4449
02:32:50,250 --> 02:32:53,090
six Americans getting sick from foodborne illness every

4450
02:32:53,090 --> 02:32:53,330
year.

4451
02:32:53,450 --> 02:32:55,750
That's about 48 million cases annually.

4452
02:32:56,270 --> 02:32:56,810
Oh, my God.

4453
02:32:57,010 --> 02:32:57,970
How bad is that?

4454
02:32:58,150 --> 02:32:58,570
There's vocal fry.

4455
02:32:58,570 --> 02:33:00,450
And by the way, yeah, I know she's

4456
02:33:00,450 --> 02:33:02,110
got vocal fry and she's got an accent.

4457
02:33:02,650 --> 02:33:05,990
That means everybody, with every six years, everybody's

4458
02:33:05,990 --> 02:33:07,310
gotten food poisoning.

4459
02:33:07,550 --> 02:33:08,530
Yeah, well, no.

4460
02:33:09,090 --> 02:33:09,430
No.

4461
02:33:09,610 --> 02:33:10,890
And as you mentioned, there are...

4462
02:33:10,890 --> 02:33:11,970
Yeah, that's the stat.

4463
02:33:12,610 --> 02:33:14,650
One in six per year.

4464
02:33:15,510 --> 02:33:19,730
So that means every six years, everybody will

4465
02:33:19,730 --> 02:33:20,530
have food poisoning.

4466
02:33:20,630 --> 02:33:22,110
I mean, it's basically statistics.

4467
02:33:23,170 --> 02:33:24,450
Thank you for that lesson.

4468
02:33:24,950 --> 02:33:27,470
There is the equivalent, essentially, of one in

4469
02:33:27,470 --> 02:33:30,290
six Americans getting sick from foodborne illness every

4470
02:33:30,290 --> 02:33:30,550
year.

4471
02:33:30,710 --> 02:33:32,950
That's about 48 million cases annually.

4472
02:33:33,410 --> 02:33:35,750
And as you mentioned, there are a fraction

4473
02:33:35,750 --> 02:33:37,190
of those cases that end up with people

4474
02:33:37,190 --> 02:33:40,390
in hospital and even about 3,000 people

4475
02:33:40,390 --> 02:33:42,950
who estimated to die of foodborne illness every

4476
02:33:42,950 --> 02:33:43,190
year.

4477
02:33:43,330 --> 02:33:45,150
So there are some things that have improved.

4478
02:33:45,410 --> 02:33:47,350
There are testing methods that have gotten better

4479
02:33:47,350 --> 02:33:50,050
where you're able to use genetic analysis, whole

4480
02:33:50,050 --> 02:33:52,390
genome sequencing to be able to trace back

4481
02:33:52,390 --> 02:33:55,030
outbreaks to specific sources of food.

4482
02:33:55,350 --> 02:33:57,870
But rates of infection from things like listeria

4483
02:33:57,870 --> 02:33:59,050
and salmonella and E.

4484
02:33:59,050 --> 02:34:01,110
coli have not improved in the ways that

4485
02:34:01,110 --> 02:34:01,770
folks were hoping.

4486
02:34:02,610 --> 02:34:04,110
Well, this is very uplifting.

4487
02:34:04,650 --> 02:34:06,110
And you have a second one, which makes

4488
02:34:06,110 --> 02:34:07,010
it even more fun.

4489
02:34:07,550 --> 02:34:10,330
Well, I'm just saying the food supply in

4490
02:34:10,330 --> 02:34:12,330
this country is no good.

4491
02:34:13,250 --> 02:34:14,850
Oh, I don't know about one of the

4492
02:34:14,850 --> 02:34:15,330
six people.

4493
02:34:15,930 --> 02:34:17,850
There's a new video that's flown around.

4494
02:34:17,950 --> 02:34:18,710
I saw it today.

4495
02:34:19,050 --> 02:34:21,370
It's a fat, a really fat chick, a

4496
02:34:21,370 --> 02:34:22,130
big fat chick.

4497
02:34:22,350 --> 02:34:25,490
And her thing is to show what she

4498
02:34:25,490 --> 02:34:25,670
eats.

4499
02:34:25,850 --> 02:34:26,930
She has big bones.

4500
02:34:27,230 --> 02:34:30,170
Oh, no, this is Tina finds these all

4501
02:34:30,170 --> 02:34:30,670
the time.

4502
02:34:32,110 --> 02:34:35,310
Like 400 pound women and then showing what

4503
02:34:35,310 --> 02:34:35,690
they eat.

4504
02:34:35,690 --> 02:34:38,830
And it's, it's, it's, it's mesmerizing.

4505
02:34:39,390 --> 02:34:41,810
It is mesmerizing because most of the stuff's

4506
02:34:41,810 --> 02:34:42,730
coming out of packages.

4507
02:34:43,370 --> 02:34:43,750
All of it.

4508
02:34:44,030 --> 02:34:47,010
Always tearing over, tearing open little pack bags

4509
02:34:47,010 --> 02:34:47,510
and things.

4510
02:34:47,690 --> 02:34:49,090
Bags and things with barcodes.

4511
02:34:49,250 --> 02:34:49,710
All of it.

4512
02:34:49,990 --> 02:34:52,310
Bags of who knows what.

4513
02:34:52,670 --> 02:34:54,370
And they're just gobbling it all down.

4514
02:34:54,590 --> 02:34:57,050
Now, that kind of holds up with another

4515
02:34:57,050 --> 02:34:57,390
one.

4516
02:34:57,450 --> 02:34:59,070
I saw an interesting video.

4517
02:34:59,070 --> 02:35:01,070
Some, some black guy.

4518
02:35:02,490 --> 02:35:06,050
Who is talking about bitching about chicken being

4519
02:35:06,050 --> 02:35:09,570
watered back because with injections and, and he's

4520
02:35:09,570 --> 02:35:11,950
on camera eating raw chicken.

4521
02:35:12,510 --> 02:35:14,030
And that's all he's doing.

4522
02:35:14,330 --> 02:35:16,350
Well, what could possibly go wrong with that?

4523
02:35:16,610 --> 02:35:18,410
What is wrong with these people?

4524
02:35:18,570 --> 02:35:20,230
But anyway, this is part two of the

4525
02:35:20,230 --> 02:35:20,490
clip.

4526
02:35:20,830 --> 02:35:22,890
And you report a story about a pretty

4527
02:35:22,890 --> 02:35:23,630
bad E.

4528
02:35:23,650 --> 02:35:26,890
coli outbreak that hit 15 states last November.

4529
02:35:27,370 --> 02:35:30,370
And the FDA chose not to publicize this

4530
02:35:30,370 --> 02:35:31,090
outbreak.

4531
02:35:31,370 --> 02:35:31,710
Why?

4532
02:35:32,210 --> 02:35:35,430
So the FDA managed through their investigation to

4533
02:35:35,430 --> 02:35:39,410
trace the contaminated lettuce back to one farm

4534
02:35:39,410 --> 02:35:42,390
and one food processor that purchased the lettuce

4535
02:35:42,390 --> 02:35:43,130
from that grower.

4536
02:35:43,530 --> 02:35:45,810
But the agency didn't disclose who either of

4537
02:35:45,810 --> 02:35:46,690
those companies were.

4538
02:35:46,850 --> 02:35:49,210
The FDA said that they were prohibited from,

4539
02:35:49,530 --> 02:35:52,890
by federal law from disclosing that information.

4540
02:35:53,570 --> 02:35:56,590
And that essentially there wasn't any contaminated left

4541
02:35:56,590 --> 02:35:58,470
lettuce left to buy on the market.

4542
02:35:58,650 --> 02:36:00,450
So consumers didn't need that information.

4543
02:36:01,010 --> 02:36:03,370
But there are many folks I spoke to

4544
02:36:03,370 --> 02:36:04,790
who, who believe the public has a right

4545
02:36:04,790 --> 02:36:06,290
to know who those companies were.

4546
02:36:07,050 --> 02:36:10,390
The Trump administration has also laid off thousands

4547
02:36:10,390 --> 02:36:12,090
of workers from the FDA.

4548
02:36:13,470 --> 02:36:17,230
Almost the entire staff responsible for communicating these

4549
02:36:17,230 --> 02:36:17,890
outbreaks.

4550
02:36:17,970 --> 02:36:18,570
Oh, there it is.

4551
02:36:18,570 --> 02:36:19,410
You got food poisoning.

4552
02:36:19,650 --> 02:36:20,270
Blame Trump.

4553
02:36:20,270 --> 02:36:21,650
Yes, Trump's fault.

4554
02:36:21,670 --> 02:36:24,070
Are things different under Trump now for the

4555
02:36:24,070 --> 02:36:25,570
FDA and for food safety?

4556
02:36:25,690 --> 02:36:26,030
Oh, yeah.

4557
02:36:26,190 --> 02:36:28,130
So these are really significant cuts that have

4558
02:36:28,130 --> 02:36:30,750
been made to staff working on all sorts

4559
02:36:30,750 --> 02:36:33,930
of aspects of food safety, including communicating about

4560
02:36:33,930 --> 02:36:34,850
outbreaks of food.

4561
02:36:35,170 --> 02:36:37,830
They shuttered an entire food safety testing lab

4562
02:36:37,830 --> 02:36:38,590
in California.

4563
02:36:39,290 --> 02:36:42,150
And there were also almost the entire staff

4564
02:36:42,150 --> 02:36:44,570
that worked on the safety of imported food.

4565
02:36:45,010 --> 02:36:48,310
So there are significant concerns about what that

4566
02:36:48,310 --> 02:36:51,970
will mean for these programs and the impact

4567
02:36:51,970 --> 02:36:53,630
on public safety and public health.

4568
02:36:54,190 --> 02:36:57,270
The Trump administration has said that these are

4569
02:36:57,270 --> 02:37:00,210
cuts that are essentially getting rid of administrative

4570
02:37:00,210 --> 02:37:04,650
staff, that this is sort of waste in

4571
02:37:04,650 --> 02:37:05,690
federal spending.

4572
02:37:06,230 --> 02:37:08,590
And that public health won't be affected and

4573
02:37:08,590 --> 02:37:10,530
communications about outbreaks won't be affected.

4574
02:37:11,010 --> 02:37:13,250
But these are changes we have not seen

4575
02:37:13,250 --> 02:37:16,530
the likes of in any recent history.

4576
02:37:17,190 --> 02:37:19,190
We have an epidemic of vocal fry.

4577
02:37:19,590 --> 02:37:21,850
What station was this?

4578
02:37:22,150 --> 02:37:22,630
What broadcast?

4579
02:37:23,050 --> 02:37:25,650
One of the local PBS stations.

4580
02:37:26,010 --> 02:37:28,110
Well, probably WAMU maybe.

4581
02:37:28,290 --> 02:37:30,090
She's probably somebody's wife.

4582
02:37:30,790 --> 02:37:31,950
Yeah, honey, you can do it.

4583
02:37:31,990 --> 02:37:33,450
You've got a great voice for broadcast.

4584
02:37:34,850 --> 02:37:37,270
You've got a great voice for broadcast.

4585
02:37:41,810 --> 02:37:45,250
I do have a couple of tariff things

4586
02:37:45,250 --> 02:37:45,950
I think we should.

4587
02:37:45,950 --> 02:37:47,530
Oh, there's that.

4588
02:37:47,610 --> 02:37:49,930
Oh, you're giving me crap for uplifting stuff.

4589
02:37:50,090 --> 02:37:50,670
Well, terrorism.

4590
02:37:50,930 --> 02:37:53,270
No, not tariffs, not terrorism.

4591
02:37:54,010 --> 02:37:54,510
Tariffs.

4592
02:37:55,510 --> 02:37:55,990
Oh, tariff.

4593
02:37:56,090 --> 02:37:57,010
They said tariff.

4594
02:37:57,770 --> 02:37:58,290
Tariffs.

4595
02:37:58,530 --> 02:38:01,690
Not much happier than terrorism.

4596
02:38:02,250 --> 02:38:04,850
But this clip, I'm glad that this report

4597
02:38:04,850 --> 02:38:05,670
was put together.

4598
02:38:05,850 --> 02:38:06,030
Let me see.

4599
02:38:06,150 --> 02:38:08,450
This was put this together.

4600
02:38:12,880 --> 02:38:16,680
This is I think this is also from

4601
02:38:16,680 --> 02:38:17,200
Euronews.

4602
02:38:17,200 --> 02:38:20,420
It was a good report because I've seen

4603
02:38:20,420 --> 02:38:21,120
these videos.

4604
02:38:21,240 --> 02:38:22,720
There was a whole slew of them for

4605
02:38:22,720 --> 02:38:25,020
a moment there, probably about two weeks ago

4606
02:38:25,020 --> 02:38:26,220
when the tariffs just started.

4607
02:38:27,080 --> 02:38:30,000
And it's something we've discussed over the years

4608
02:38:30,000 --> 02:38:30,820
many times.

4609
02:38:31,340 --> 02:38:33,880
Of course, our thoughts are completely wrong.

4610
02:38:34,740 --> 02:38:37,940
But let's discuss after we talk about the

4611
02:38:37,940 --> 02:38:40,620
US-China trade war as it took to

4612
02:38:40,620 --> 02:38:40,980
TikTok.

4613
02:38:41,560 --> 02:38:44,220
The ongoing trade war between the US and

4614
02:38:44,220 --> 02:38:46,760
China is now all over TikTok and European

4615
02:38:46,760 --> 02:38:49,420
fashion houses have found themselves sandwiched somewhere in

4616
02:38:49,420 --> 02:38:49,800
the middle.

4617
02:38:50,200 --> 02:38:51,960
A bag from a high-end European fashion

4618
02:38:51,960 --> 02:38:54,120
house such as Hermès, Louis Vuitton or Prada

4619
02:38:54,120 --> 02:38:56,360
can cost hundreds of thousands of euros.

4620
02:38:56,860 --> 02:38:59,540
But on TikTok, individuals claiming to be Chinese

4621
02:38:59,540 --> 02:39:01,740
manufacturers say they are the ones really making

4622
02:39:01,740 --> 02:39:02,320
these goods.

4623
02:39:02,620 --> 02:39:04,940
Speaking in English and referring to prices in

4624
02:39:04,940 --> 02:39:08,100
dollars, they appear to be targeting American consumers

4625
02:39:08,100 --> 02:39:09,640
known for buying these goods.

4626
02:39:09,920 --> 02:39:11,940
For the past more than 30 years, we

4627
02:39:11,940 --> 02:39:13,960
have been OEM factory for most of the

4628
02:39:13,960 --> 02:39:15,220
luxury brands around the world.

4629
02:39:15,220 --> 02:39:18,140
Gucci, Prada, Coach, Louis Vuitton, you name it.

4630
02:39:18,320 --> 02:39:20,780
Real OEM factory for those luxury brands.

4631
02:39:20,980 --> 02:39:23,700
We are the same group of people.

4632
02:39:24,100 --> 02:39:25,820
30,000 USD.

4633
02:39:26,140 --> 02:39:27,200
And do you know how much it costs

4634
02:39:27,200 --> 02:39:27,780
from us?

4635
02:39:27,960 --> 02:39:29,940
If you buy from us, only less than

4636
02:39:29,940 --> 02:39:31,500
one-tenth of its price.

4637
02:39:31,860 --> 02:39:34,660
On their website, Hermès lists locations where it

4638
02:39:34,660 --> 02:39:37,560
produces and manufactures but does not mention China.

4639
02:39:37,800 --> 02:39:39,340
The same goes for Louis Vuitton.

4640
02:39:39,620 --> 02:39:41,980
Meanwhile, the EU stipulates that for goods to

4641
02:39:41,980 --> 02:39:44,420
be labeled made in Europe, their last substantial

4642
02:39:44,420 --> 02:39:47,340
transformation must occur in the country of production.

4643
02:39:47,700 --> 02:39:51,100
Investigative journalist Noemi Leclerc told Euroverify that the

4644
02:39:51,100 --> 02:39:53,660
majority of these TikTok videos in fact display

4645
02:39:53,660 --> 02:39:54,860
counterfeit products.

4646
02:39:55,220 --> 02:39:57,580
Leclerc added that these videos are being posted

4647
02:39:57,580 --> 02:40:00,520
as the Chinese government moves towards encouraging counterfeit

4648
02:40:00,520 --> 02:40:03,080
production in a bid to retaliate against US

4649
02:40:03,080 --> 02:40:03,580
tariffs.

4650
02:40:03,960 --> 02:40:06,160
Despite this all, the luxury goods industry is

4651
02:40:06,160 --> 02:40:09,060
shrouded in secrecy and protects the finer details

4652
02:40:09,060 --> 02:40:10,120
of its supply chain.

4653
02:40:10,120 --> 02:40:12,940
According to experts, luxury brands such as Ralph

4654
02:40:12,940 --> 02:40:15,760
Lauren and Prada do manufacture in China at

4655
02:40:15,760 --> 02:40:17,600
stages of the production process.

4656
02:40:40,120 --> 02:40:42,820
So if you're a significant manufacturer, well, I'd

4657
02:40:42,820 --> 02:40:47,540
say putting the gold lame clasp on it

4658
02:40:47,540 --> 02:40:50,560
that says Prada or Gucci or whatever is

4659
02:40:50,560 --> 02:40:51,900
probably how they get around that.

4660
02:40:51,960 --> 02:40:53,080
I think you and I are both of

4661
02:40:53,080 --> 02:40:56,120
the opinion that this is absolutely Chinese crap.

4662
02:40:56,540 --> 02:40:57,120
It's not even crap.

4663
02:40:57,520 --> 02:40:58,200
It's good stuff.

4664
02:40:58,580 --> 02:41:00,000
I've been to China enough.

4665
02:41:00,180 --> 02:41:03,020
I bought, I probably have more Armani stuff

4666
02:41:03,020 --> 02:41:05,400
that I picked up in various stores.

4667
02:41:05,700 --> 02:41:07,280
Armoni, Armoni, but okay.

4668
02:41:07,380 --> 02:41:08,360
No, it says Armani.

4669
02:41:08,440 --> 02:41:09,900
It's got the real label on there.

4670
02:41:09,900 --> 02:41:11,800
It's dynamite and it's actually a good product.

4671
02:41:11,820 --> 02:41:13,240
You wear Crocs.

4672
02:41:13,600 --> 02:41:15,320
I've never seen you in anything Armani.

4673
02:41:15,340 --> 02:41:17,200
I have never worn Crocs in my life.

4674
02:41:17,360 --> 02:41:20,140
Nah, they're Adidas knockoffs.

4675
02:41:20,440 --> 02:41:22,160
But no, I'm telling you, Armani is not

4676
02:41:22,160 --> 02:41:24,160
a, I'm not talking about the, what shoes?

4677
02:41:24,280 --> 02:41:24,560
I don't know.

4678
02:41:24,640 --> 02:41:26,160
I'm saying I've never seen you in Armani.

4679
02:41:26,360 --> 02:41:26,780
I'd love to see you.

4680
02:41:26,780 --> 02:41:29,600
No, I have shirts, shirts and ties.

4681
02:41:30,060 --> 02:41:30,900
In a tie.

4682
02:41:31,260 --> 02:41:32,700
I've never seen, you would look great in

4683
02:41:32,700 --> 02:41:33,060
a tie.

4684
02:41:33,680 --> 02:41:35,140
I have a ton of, I used to

4685
02:41:35,140 --> 02:41:35,700
collect ties.

4686
02:41:35,800 --> 02:41:37,440
I still have a huge collection of ties.

4687
02:41:37,600 --> 02:41:37,960
Okay.

4688
02:41:37,960 --> 02:41:40,120
I can take some photos of my collection.

4689
02:41:40,200 --> 02:41:40,460
Please.

4690
02:41:40,640 --> 02:41:40,980
Anyway.

4691
02:41:41,480 --> 02:41:41,840
Armani.

4692
02:41:43,060 --> 02:41:45,100
You can buy Armani over there and it's

4693
02:41:45,100 --> 02:41:47,220
just the price is like two bucks.

4694
02:41:48,440 --> 02:41:49,780
It's for the shirts.

4695
02:41:49,920 --> 02:41:50,100
Yeah.

4696
02:41:50,660 --> 02:41:51,480
And with the labels.

4697
02:41:51,620 --> 02:41:53,840
And then there's also, you can get the

4698
02:41:53,840 --> 02:41:55,380
tailor-made suits over there.

4699
02:41:55,560 --> 02:41:57,260
But then, you know, you'd probably talk them

4700
02:41:57,260 --> 02:41:59,200
into putting an Armani label in there because

4701
02:41:59,200 --> 02:42:00,120
they probably have them.

4702
02:42:00,900 --> 02:42:03,060
But it's beside the, the whole thing is

4703
02:42:03,060 --> 02:42:03,460
a joke.

4704
02:42:03,580 --> 02:42:04,820
And Korea is the same way.

4705
02:42:04,860 --> 02:42:06,220
You can go over there and buy all

4706
02:42:06,220 --> 02:42:06,440
this.

4707
02:42:06,440 --> 02:42:08,060
One time I went to Korea and I

4708
02:42:08,060 --> 02:42:09,720
bought a bunch of Eddie Bauer stuff as

4709
02:42:09,720 --> 02:42:12,320
gifts for a bunch of people when I

4710
02:42:12,320 --> 02:42:13,000
came back.

4711
02:42:13,680 --> 02:42:14,440
And it was all Eddie.

4712
02:42:14,620 --> 02:42:16,360
It just looked like Eddie Bauer stuff to

4713
02:42:16,360 --> 02:42:16,620
me.

4714
02:42:17,280 --> 02:42:18,920
And they make it all over there and

4715
02:42:18,920 --> 02:42:20,440
they have a lot of overruns.

4716
02:42:20,480 --> 02:42:22,120
And then they take the overruns and sell

4717
02:42:22,120 --> 02:42:22,920
them on the street.

4718
02:42:24,100 --> 02:42:24,480
LVMH.

4719
02:42:24,660 --> 02:42:26,120
Now they own a lot of, what is

4720
02:42:26,120 --> 02:42:26,840
LVMH?

4721
02:42:27,900 --> 02:42:30,040
Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy.

4722
02:42:30,820 --> 02:42:33,600
Do you know what their net profit was

4723
02:42:33,600 --> 02:42:34,380
in 2024?

4724
02:42:35,380 --> 02:42:37,160
Some billions of billions.

4725
02:42:37,400 --> 02:42:39,060
13 billion.

4726
02:42:39,600 --> 02:42:39,860
Yeah.

4727
02:42:40,360 --> 02:42:42,460
Because they make, I mean, this is what

4728
02:42:42,460 --> 02:42:44,100
I liked about these videos because they show

4729
02:42:44,100 --> 02:42:44,540
you this stuff.

4730
02:42:44,560 --> 02:42:47,080
It's like, hey, these Nike shoes, two bucks.

4731
02:42:48,980 --> 02:42:50,640
Tell me it's not true.

4732
02:42:50,760 --> 02:42:51,660
Of course it's true.

4733
02:42:51,740 --> 02:42:53,700
That's how all these, this is the biggest

4734
02:42:53,700 --> 02:42:54,460
psyop.

4735
02:42:54,940 --> 02:42:58,960
This is the true magic of American marketing.

4736
02:42:58,960 --> 02:43:02,960
Is that we have convinced consumers that if

4737
02:43:02,960 --> 02:43:04,860
it has the brand on it, it's the

4738
02:43:04,860 --> 02:43:05,500
real deal.

4739
02:43:05,700 --> 02:43:08,120
It is the real deal.

4740
02:43:08,440 --> 02:43:09,420
That's the point.

4741
02:43:09,860 --> 02:43:12,680
But they're marking it up by thousands of

4742
02:43:12,680 --> 02:43:13,240
percents.

4743
02:43:13,640 --> 02:43:14,960
It's the real deal.

4744
02:43:15,120 --> 02:43:18,200
And it's marked up because it's the real

4745
02:43:18,200 --> 02:43:18,540
deal.

4746
02:43:18,960 --> 02:43:21,980
If somebody can bypass the real deal and

4747
02:43:21,980 --> 02:43:23,940
you get the best price, you get the

4748
02:43:23,940 --> 02:43:24,980
Chinese price.

4749
02:43:25,080 --> 02:43:25,480
Yeah.

4750
02:43:25,480 --> 02:43:28,220
That thousand dollar deal is like, uh, you

4751
02:43:28,220 --> 02:43:30,760
know, 50 bucks, 20 bucks, 10.

4752
02:43:31,120 --> 02:43:32,640
And where did COVID start?

4753
02:43:32,760 --> 02:43:34,440
Right there where all the Chinese come in

4754
02:43:34,440 --> 02:43:36,360
with all these bags under their arm into

4755
02:43:36,360 --> 02:43:36,740
Italy.

4756
02:43:36,980 --> 02:43:38,720
And they slap the label on.

4757
02:43:40,060 --> 02:43:40,880
They brought it.

4758
02:43:40,980 --> 02:43:41,240
Remember?

4759
02:43:41,680 --> 02:43:42,480
Yeah, of course it's true.

4760
02:43:42,500 --> 02:43:43,320
We remember it.

4761
02:43:43,320 --> 02:43:44,720
It's a part of Italy where there's all

4762
02:43:44,720 --> 02:43:45,260
these Chinese.

4763
02:43:45,580 --> 02:43:45,880
Yeah.

4764
02:43:46,820 --> 02:43:47,260
Yes.

4765
02:43:47,920 --> 02:43:49,820
And they're always coming over, going back and

4766
02:43:49,820 --> 02:43:50,080
forth.

4767
02:43:50,140 --> 02:43:50,760
What's that in your bag?

4768
02:43:50,800 --> 02:43:51,160
Oh, nothing.

4769
02:43:51,920 --> 02:43:54,060
Just a couple million dollars worth of Hermes

4770
02:43:54,060 --> 02:43:54,560
bags.

4771
02:43:55,480 --> 02:43:57,360
And so, and we discuss this always in

4772
02:43:57,360 --> 02:43:59,440
the context of Canal Street in New York.

4773
02:43:59,820 --> 02:44:00,880
I don't know if that still exists.

4774
02:44:01,060 --> 02:44:01,200
I think.

4775
02:44:01,540 --> 02:44:02,160
Yeah, it's still okay.

4776
02:44:02,160 --> 02:44:03,260
It's not what it used to be when

4777
02:44:03,260 --> 02:44:04,080
I was a kid.

4778
02:44:04,140 --> 02:44:04,920
Oh, here we go.

4779
02:44:05,040 --> 02:44:06,860
So, and then, uh, I used to go

4780
02:44:06,860 --> 02:44:10,300
buy, I bought phony watches.

4781
02:44:10,500 --> 02:44:14,640
I have a somewhat of a collection, but

4782
02:44:14,640 --> 02:44:16,980
there's some killers that are just, you wouldn't

4783
02:44:16,980 --> 02:44:17,600
know the difference.

4784
02:44:17,660 --> 02:44:19,060
They got the sweep secondhand.

4785
02:44:19,260 --> 02:44:20,160
I mean, the cheap ones don't.

4786
02:44:20,180 --> 02:44:21,300
But that, but that to me is a

4787
02:44:21,300 --> 02:44:21,820
little different.

4788
02:44:21,820 --> 02:44:25,340
A handsome, beautiful Swiss time piece that you

4789
02:44:25,340 --> 02:44:25,920
don't own.

4790
02:44:25,980 --> 02:44:27,340
You just pass it on to the next

4791
02:44:27,340 --> 02:44:27,920
generation.

4792
02:44:28,540 --> 02:44:30,820
So I take, so one of my favorite

4793
02:44:30,820 --> 02:44:32,580
things is a story.

4794
02:44:32,740 --> 02:44:34,520
One of the, I think it was associate

4795
02:44:34,520 --> 02:44:35,900
publisher of PC Magazine.

4796
02:44:36,120 --> 02:44:37,900
She was, uh, she knew I was always

4797
02:44:37,900 --> 02:44:40,840
going to, uh, picking stuff up at, uh,

4798
02:44:41,480 --> 02:44:42,280
on Canal Street.

4799
02:44:42,440 --> 02:44:43,700
She said, can you get me a Rolex?

4800
02:44:44,640 --> 02:44:45,600
A nice Rolex.

4801
02:44:46,180 --> 02:44:47,100
I said, what do you want?

4802
02:44:47,140 --> 02:44:48,840
Do you want some diamonds all around it?

4803
02:44:48,880 --> 02:44:50,100
What do you, what could, give me a,

4804
02:44:50,280 --> 02:44:51,700
so I get, she gave me a description.

4805
02:44:51,700 --> 02:44:53,200
So I went and bought her a lady's

4806
02:44:53,200 --> 02:44:53,640
Rolex.

4807
02:44:54,240 --> 02:44:55,240
Beautiful at a sweep.

4808
02:44:55,340 --> 02:44:57,180
Second, it was the more expensive ones that

4809
02:44:57,180 --> 02:44:58,220
had the sweep secondhand.

4810
02:44:58,640 --> 02:45:00,180
So it really looked legit.

4811
02:45:00,260 --> 02:45:01,520
It's got all the stampings on it.

4812
02:45:01,580 --> 02:45:04,580
But that, that's, that is clearly counterfeit.

4813
02:45:04,900 --> 02:45:05,520
Let me finish the story.

4814
02:45:06,800 --> 02:45:08,220
So I give her the Rolex.

4815
02:45:08,380 --> 02:45:09,120
It's a holy crap.

4816
02:45:09,180 --> 02:45:10,260
This was like a real Rolex.

4817
02:45:10,420 --> 02:45:11,800
And I said, yeah, very much.

4818
02:45:11,860 --> 02:45:13,720
So she puts it on and about a

4819
02:45:13,720 --> 02:45:14,940
week later, she comes up to me.

4820
02:45:15,000 --> 02:45:16,560
She says, here's the Rolex back.

4821
02:45:17,520 --> 02:45:19,000
I said, what do you, you didn't like

4822
02:45:19,000 --> 02:45:19,140
it?

4823
02:45:19,180 --> 02:45:20,120
She says, no, I was great.

4824
02:45:20,120 --> 02:45:24,340
So I knew it wasn't real and I

4825
02:45:24,340 --> 02:45:26,240
didn't feel comfortable wearing it.

4826
02:45:27,540 --> 02:45:29,660
It was just a, it was a response.

4827
02:45:29,780 --> 02:45:30,640
I did not expect.

4828
02:45:32,700 --> 02:45:33,640
That's the story.

4829
02:45:34,480 --> 02:45:34,960
Yeah.

4830
02:45:34,960 --> 02:45:37,280
The story is that people that you can

4831
02:45:37,280 --> 02:45:39,180
tell him it's the same, say, it's the

4832
02:45:39,180 --> 02:45:41,500
same exact product, the Louis Vuitton bag.

4833
02:45:41,680 --> 02:45:45,560
They would rather, you know, buy one, pay

4834
02:45:45,560 --> 02:45:48,320
the 1500 bucks instead of 15 bucks.

4835
02:45:48,620 --> 02:45:50,560
Because, you know, it's, it makes him feel

4836
02:45:50,560 --> 02:45:51,100
more comfortable.

4837
02:45:51,100 --> 02:45:54,160
The whole thing is they've been, they've been

4838
02:45:54,160 --> 02:45:55,700
brainwashed.

4839
02:45:56,220 --> 02:45:57,680
So I look at it a little differently.

4840
02:45:59,220 --> 02:46:02,780
And my hope is, I know Don Quixote,

4841
02:46:02,920 --> 02:46:03,220
I know.

4842
02:46:03,720 --> 02:46:07,800
My hope is that American consumers, which is

4843
02:46:07,800 --> 02:46:08,320
what we are.

4844
02:46:08,460 --> 02:46:09,960
We're all just consumers for the rest of

4845
02:46:09,960 --> 02:46:10,600
the, of the world.

4846
02:46:11,220 --> 02:46:13,020
That we look at that and go, huh,

4847
02:46:13,320 --> 02:46:15,380
that's kind of dumb.

4848
02:46:16,060 --> 02:46:21,280
What I'm doing is kind of dumb.

4849
02:46:21,280 --> 02:46:23,360
What you're doing, you mean by buying bags

4850
02:46:23,360 --> 02:46:23,800
at all?

4851
02:46:24,060 --> 02:46:28,780
By buying non-value for value products just

4852
02:46:28,780 --> 02:46:30,700
based on status.

4853
02:46:31,500 --> 02:46:31,720
Yeah.

4854
02:46:32,420 --> 02:46:34,120
That's, I mean, it's dumb.

4855
02:46:35,220 --> 02:46:35,860
You know, buy it.

4856
02:46:36,960 --> 02:46:40,500
Buy a good solid American product that's made

4857
02:46:40,500 --> 02:46:42,360
well and looks good.

4858
02:46:42,420 --> 02:46:44,580
I know we have to come up with

4859
02:46:44,580 --> 02:46:45,860
those products, but eventually.

4860
02:46:45,860 --> 02:46:47,200
We don't have those anymore.

4861
02:46:47,580 --> 02:46:49,120
We have the pearl boot company.

4862
02:46:49,240 --> 02:46:49,680
They're perfect.

4863
02:46:49,680 --> 02:46:51,360
Don't buy one guy.

4864
02:46:51,500 --> 02:46:52,780
Well, it's a start.

4865
02:46:52,920 --> 02:46:54,060
One guy is a start.

4866
02:46:54,140 --> 02:46:55,140
It's one guy.

4867
02:46:55,660 --> 02:46:58,840
Speaking of Rolex is an expensive watches television

4868
02:46:58,840 --> 02:46:59,620
tip for you.

4869
02:46:59,720 --> 02:47:00,900
I don't think you can watch it.

4870
02:47:00,900 --> 02:47:02,440
You don't have Apple TV plus though.

4871
02:47:02,520 --> 02:47:02,720
Do you?

4872
02:47:02,800 --> 02:47:03,680
No, you don't have that.

4873
02:47:04,840 --> 02:47:06,120
What is it that I should be watching

4874
02:47:06,120 --> 02:47:07,400
on the Apple TV plus?

4875
02:47:07,480 --> 02:47:10,860
Your Friends and Neighbors starring Jon Hamm.

4876
02:47:12,140 --> 02:47:13,020
Is it a good show?

4877
02:47:13,180 --> 02:47:14,280
Very good show.

4878
02:47:14,280 --> 02:47:18,140
Hedge fund manager gets fired.

4879
02:47:19,500 --> 02:47:20,960
I'll give you the synopsis.

4880
02:47:21,580 --> 02:47:24,120
Start stealing from his Friends and Neighbors.

4881
02:47:25,820 --> 02:47:26,880
And it's Jon Hamm.

4882
02:47:26,980 --> 02:47:27,820
It's very good.

4883
02:47:28,080 --> 02:47:29,000
He starts stealing?

4884
02:47:29,280 --> 02:47:29,420
Yeah.

4885
02:47:29,600 --> 02:47:31,180
Like a cat burglar?

4886
02:47:31,540 --> 02:47:32,480
Well, he just, yeah.

4887
02:47:32,540 --> 02:47:34,500
Like a cat burglar starts stealing, you know,

4888
02:47:34,620 --> 02:47:36,120
$300,000 watches.

4889
02:47:36,400 --> 02:47:37,440
You know, they won't miss it anyway.

4890
02:47:41,280 --> 02:47:42,580
That might be interesting.

4891
02:47:42,900 --> 02:47:43,140
Yeah.

4892
02:47:43,280 --> 02:47:44,760
But you have to get Apple TV plus.

4893
02:47:44,880 --> 02:47:46,200
I don't think that's not something you would

4894
02:47:46,200 --> 02:47:46,440
get.

4895
02:47:47,320 --> 02:47:49,720
Does it feel like a Dvorak channel?

4896
02:47:51,340 --> 02:47:53,460
Apple TV plus not happening.

4897
02:47:53,740 --> 02:47:54,480
No, I knew it.

4898
02:47:54,580 --> 02:47:55,220
I knew it.

4899
02:47:55,460 --> 02:47:59,120
I already got subscriptions to Hulu, whatever it

4900
02:47:59,120 --> 02:48:01,280
is, the top level of Hulu.

4901
02:48:01,460 --> 02:48:01,760
Disney plus.

4902
02:48:01,760 --> 02:48:02,660
So you don't get all these ads.

4903
02:48:03,060 --> 02:48:05,060
Disney plus, concierge service.

4904
02:48:05,060 --> 02:48:06,140
I don't get Disney plus.

4905
02:48:06,300 --> 02:48:07,600
Now forget Disney plus.

4906
02:48:09,640 --> 02:48:12,840
Hulu, Netflix and Amazon, that's all you need.

4907
02:48:12,960 --> 02:48:15,520
How much more entertainment feeds do you need?

4908
02:48:15,520 --> 02:48:15,740
You don't.

4909
02:48:15,820 --> 02:48:16,380
You don't.

4910
02:48:16,740 --> 02:48:18,420
I'm in total agreement with you.

4911
02:48:18,480 --> 02:48:19,380
Don't need it at all.

4912
02:48:19,820 --> 02:48:20,760
We need to come up with some good

4913
02:48:20,760 --> 02:48:21,580
American products.

4914
02:48:22,140 --> 02:48:25,080
That it's clunky and ugly, but it's American

4915
02:48:25,080 --> 02:48:26,460
and priced right.

4916
02:48:27,220 --> 02:48:28,380
We can't do it anymore.

4917
02:48:28,480 --> 02:48:29,920
I think this whole thing's a pipe dream.

4918
02:48:30,520 --> 02:48:32,240
Here's something right up your alley though.

4919
02:48:32,460 --> 02:48:33,240
Imagine this.

4920
02:48:33,360 --> 02:48:35,420
Maybe you should watch movies before you vote

4921
02:48:35,420 --> 02:48:35,760
on them.

4922
02:48:36,080 --> 02:48:38,080
Oscar voters will no longer be able to

4923
02:48:38,080 --> 02:48:40,340
skip watching some of the nominated movies.

4924
02:48:40,500 --> 02:48:42,040
It's unreal that they were able to before.

4925
02:48:42,200 --> 02:48:43,640
It is just one of the new updated

4926
02:48:43,640 --> 02:48:45,640
rules announced by the Academy of Motion Pictures,

4927
02:48:45,640 --> 02:48:46,720
Arts and Sciences.

4928
02:48:47,120 --> 02:48:49,200
Members will now be required to watch all

4929
02:48:49,200 --> 02:48:51,780
nominated films in each category in order to

4930
02:48:51,780 --> 02:48:53,680
be eligible to vote in the final round

4931
02:48:53,680 --> 02:48:54,020
of Oscar voting.

4932
02:48:54,020 --> 02:48:55,000
Hold on, stop the clip for a second.

4933
02:48:56,060 --> 02:48:59,620
This is a funny clip because I guess

4934
02:48:59,620 --> 02:49:02,640
some steering committee came along and looked at

4935
02:49:02,640 --> 02:49:06,300
all the movies that won the awards and

4936
02:49:06,300 --> 02:49:09,620
said to themselves eventually, did anybody actually watch

4937
02:49:09,620 --> 02:49:10,520
these films?

4938
02:49:10,820 --> 02:49:12,280
That's exactly what happened.

4939
02:49:12,820 --> 02:49:14,560
How do we get some movies that have

4940
02:49:14,560 --> 02:49:16,380
been winning awards suck?

4941
02:49:16,920 --> 02:49:18,780
Members will now be required to watch all

4942
02:49:18,780 --> 02:49:21,340
nominated films in each category in order to

4943
02:49:21,340 --> 02:49:23,240
be eligible to vote in the final round

4944
02:49:23,240 --> 02:49:24,180
of Oscar voting.

4945
02:49:24,380 --> 02:49:25,220
Now it's even Steven.

4946
02:49:25,400 --> 02:49:27,700
The Academy also updated its rules to clarify

4947
02:49:27,700 --> 02:49:30,420
the use of artificial intelligence in movies.

4948
02:49:31,040 --> 02:49:33,700
It says the technology will not disqualify a

4949
02:49:33,700 --> 02:49:36,020
film from being able to nab an Oscar

4950
02:49:36,020 --> 02:49:36,660
nomination.

4951
02:49:36,980 --> 02:49:38,540
Buried the lead on that one too.

4952
02:49:39,920 --> 02:49:41,080
Where's the outrage?

4953
02:49:42,260 --> 02:49:43,780
Scaramanga has a shot.

4954
02:49:44,600 --> 02:49:45,220
He does.

4955
02:49:45,620 --> 02:49:49,180
In the ultra short movie category of 30

4956
02:49:49,180 --> 02:49:52,000
seconds or less, only published ever on X,

4957
02:49:52,960 --> 02:49:54,660
Francisco Scaramanga.

4958
02:49:56,300 --> 02:49:58,200
I thought that, yeah, I thought it was

4959
02:49:58,200 --> 02:49:58,600
interesting.

4960
02:49:59,400 --> 02:50:00,240
Here's the story.

4961
02:50:00,500 --> 02:50:02,740
Yeah, you play the great China story.

4962
02:50:02,900 --> 02:50:03,620
The great China.

4963
02:50:03,840 --> 02:50:06,200
Earlier today in the Eastern District Court of

4964
02:50:06,200 --> 02:50:08,320
New York, Linda Sun and her husband, co

4965
02:50:08,320 --> 02:50:11,560
-defendant Chris Hu, appeared alongside their attorneys for

4966
02:50:11,560 --> 02:50:12,660
a court conference.

4967
02:50:13,200 --> 02:50:16,620
The polished look couple allegedly earned millions of

4968
02:50:16,620 --> 02:50:18,960
dollars in kickbacks for their ties to the

4969
02:50:18,960 --> 02:50:20,480
Chinese regime.

4970
02:50:20,820 --> 02:50:23,240
During the court meeting, a prosecutor revealed that

4971
02:50:23,240 --> 02:50:26,520
they are finalizing Chinese translations of evidence against

4972
02:50:26,520 --> 02:50:26,700
Sun.

4973
02:50:27,220 --> 02:50:30,460
Those include text messages, emails, and other communications

4974
02:50:30,460 --> 02:50:32,240
between Sun and Chinese officials.

4975
02:50:32,620 --> 02:50:34,980
These materials are expected to be made public

4976
02:50:34,980 --> 02:50:35,840
during the trial.

4977
02:50:36,300 --> 02:50:38,860
Sun served as New York Governor Kathy Hochul's

4978
02:50:38,860 --> 02:50:41,240
top aide in charge of Asian affairs.

4979
02:50:41,480 --> 02:50:45,020
In 2023, Sun was fired for misconduct without

4980
02:50:45,020 --> 02:50:46,180
specifying reasons.

4981
02:50:46,780 --> 02:50:49,800
Last September, federal law enforcement arrested her and

4982
02:50:49,800 --> 02:50:50,660
her husband.

4983
02:50:51,200 --> 02:50:53,120
They now face multiple criminal accounts.

4984
02:50:53,980 --> 02:50:55,960
The Sun is accused of acting as an

4985
02:50:55,960 --> 02:50:59,280
unregistered foreign agent of communist China, making her

4986
02:50:59,280 --> 02:51:01,540
case one of the most high profile cases

4987
02:51:01,540 --> 02:51:02,580
of its kind.

4988
02:51:02,580 --> 02:51:06,000
The government accuses Sun of furthering Beijing's interest

4989
02:51:06,000 --> 02:51:09,800
while being a state official, including disclosing internal

4990
02:51:09,800 --> 02:51:13,200
COVID-related meetings to Chinese diplomats and blocking

4991
02:51:13,200 --> 02:51:16,100
Taiwanese officials' interactions with two New York governors.

4992
02:51:16,780 --> 02:51:19,760
Images show Sun had attended multiple meetings hosted

4993
02:51:19,760 --> 02:51:22,960
by China's spy agency and other state entities.

4994
02:51:23,560 --> 02:51:25,260
Yeah, we had that clip.

4995
02:51:25,540 --> 02:51:26,420
We had that story.

4996
02:51:26,760 --> 02:51:28,080
It was buried.

4997
02:51:28,460 --> 02:51:29,620
This is from NTD.

4998
02:51:29,620 --> 02:51:33,060
Where's the mainstream media talking about this Kathy

4999
02:51:33,060 --> 02:51:35,400
Hochul and Governor Cuomo's aide?

5000
02:51:35,840 --> 02:51:36,920
They finally busted her.

5001
02:51:37,200 --> 02:51:38,880
I mean, they really threw the book at

5002
02:51:38,880 --> 02:51:39,020
her.

5003
02:51:39,100 --> 02:51:41,100
Well, you had a three by three even

5004
02:51:41,100 --> 02:51:41,720
on this.

5005
02:51:41,880 --> 02:51:45,160
Yeah, but they haven't followed up at all.

5006
02:51:45,320 --> 02:51:46,380
You want to play one of those, the

5007
02:51:46,380 --> 02:51:48,740
NBC version from September 2024?

5008
02:51:49,740 --> 02:51:50,260
Sure.

5009
02:51:50,520 --> 02:51:52,120
The former top aide to New York Governor

5010
02:51:52,120 --> 02:51:55,280
Kathy Hochul was arrested today on charges of

5011
02:51:55,280 --> 02:51:57,580
acting as a secret agent of the Chinese

5012
02:51:57,580 --> 02:51:58,140
government.

5013
02:51:58,140 --> 02:52:01,440
Chief Justice Contributor Jonathan Deans is following this.

5014
02:52:01,580 --> 02:52:03,580
And John, according to prosecutors, how did this

5015
02:52:03,580 --> 02:52:03,860
work?

5016
02:52:04,240 --> 02:52:06,900
Yeah, well, prosecutors say Linda Sun betrayed her

5017
02:52:06,900 --> 02:52:10,540
official office by instead acting on requests of

5018
02:52:10,540 --> 02:52:12,880
Chinese communist government officials.

5019
02:52:13,240 --> 02:52:15,620
Sun is charged with acting as an unregistered

5020
02:52:15,620 --> 02:52:16,480
foreign agent.

5021
02:52:16,920 --> 02:52:18,520
Her husband was also arrested today.

5022
02:52:18,640 --> 02:52:21,120
He's accused of laundering millions of dollars from

5023
02:52:21,120 --> 02:52:23,900
China into the U.S. The couple pleaded

5024
02:52:23,900 --> 02:52:25,560
not guilty in federal court.

5025
02:52:25,560 --> 02:52:27,880
According to the indictment, the scheme went on

5026
02:52:27,880 --> 02:52:28,620
for years.

5027
02:52:28,920 --> 02:52:31,000
In return, Sun and her husband were allegedly

5028
02:52:31,000 --> 02:52:34,220
given business opportunities in China and luxury gifts.

5029
02:52:34,620 --> 02:52:36,860
The FBI says the pair used that money

5030
02:52:36,860 --> 02:52:39,380
to buy a $4 million home on Long

5031
02:52:39,380 --> 02:52:42,340
Island and a $2 million condo in Hawaii.

5032
02:52:42,880 --> 02:52:45,540
Governor Hochul's office says Sun was fired last

5033
02:52:45,540 --> 02:52:49,260
year after evidence of misconduct was discovered, Lester.

5034
02:52:49,640 --> 02:52:50,780
Yeah, so it just covered up?

5035
02:52:52,060 --> 02:52:53,220
It just ended right there.

5036
02:52:53,580 --> 02:52:55,000
Yeah, well, Hochul is the queen, man.

5037
02:52:55,740 --> 02:52:57,000
She's like the Red Queen.

5038
02:52:57,760 --> 02:52:59,240
You can't go messing with her.

5039
02:53:00,000 --> 02:53:01,700
Before you know it, you get Eric Adams.

5040
02:53:02,980 --> 02:53:03,700
Poor guy.

5041
02:53:05,120 --> 02:53:07,360
All right, two-minute warning.

5042
02:53:07,560 --> 02:53:08,780
Do you have one more clip you want

5043
02:53:08,780 --> 02:53:09,340
to get in there?

5044
02:53:09,860 --> 02:53:11,520
I think I may have had, since you

5045
02:53:11,520 --> 02:53:13,500
mentioned Eric Adams, I may actually have an

5046
02:53:13,500 --> 02:53:14,420
Eric Adams clip.

5047
02:53:16,320 --> 02:53:17,120
What do we got?

5048
02:53:18,420 --> 02:53:20,060
Yeah, make sure you stay on the mic,

5049
02:53:20,180 --> 02:53:20,320
though.

5050
02:53:21,920 --> 02:53:24,040
Here, Rikers Island fiasco.

5051
02:53:24,660 --> 02:53:25,220
Two-parter.

5052
02:53:25,240 --> 02:53:27,100
Anne Holman today also criticized New York City

5053
02:53:27,100 --> 02:53:29,700
officials for blocking the mayor's executive order that

5054
02:53:29,700 --> 02:53:33,100
gives ICE agents access to Rikers Island jail.

5055
02:53:33,340 --> 02:53:35,300
NTD's Arlene Richards has the latest.

5056
02:53:35,540 --> 02:53:38,380
A clash between Mayor Eric Adams and New

5057
02:53:38,380 --> 02:53:41,100
York City officials has led to a court

5058
02:53:41,100 --> 02:53:44,300
order on Monday blocking federal agents from access

5059
02:53:44,300 --> 02:53:45,920
to Rikers Island jail.

5060
02:53:46,340 --> 02:53:49,400
Where borders are, Tom Holman says several terrorist

5061
02:53:49,400 --> 02:53:51,140
gang members are being held.

5062
02:53:51,140 --> 02:53:53,620
You got the city council filing a lawsuit

5063
02:53:53,620 --> 02:53:57,200
to shut down our memorandum of understanding, the

5064
02:53:57,200 --> 02:53:58,560
executive order he signed to get us in

5065
02:53:58,560 --> 02:53:59,020
Rikers Island.

5066
02:53:59,460 --> 02:54:02,220
A New York judge ordered city officials to

5067
02:54:02,220 --> 02:54:05,740
temporarily halt a plan allowing federal immigration agents

5068
02:54:05,740 --> 02:54:08,820
to operate within the Rikers Island jail complex.

5069
02:54:09,080 --> 02:54:11,620
Judge Mary Rosado barred the city from taking

5070
02:54:11,620 --> 02:54:15,420
any steps toward negotiating, signing, or implementing any

5071
02:54:15,420 --> 02:54:18,880
memorandum of understanding with the federal government before

5072
02:54:18,880 --> 02:54:22,140
an April 25th hearing in a suit challenging

5073
02:54:22,140 --> 02:54:22,820
the plan.

5074
02:54:23,360 --> 02:54:26,380
Adams said years ago, city council member Robert

5075
02:54:26,380 --> 02:54:29,840
Holden suggested ICE presence at Rikers Island.

5076
02:54:29,940 --> 02:54:30,600
It was interesting.

5077
02:54:31,280 --> 02:54:34,460
The first person that brought that to me

5078
02:54:34,460 --> 02:54:41,880
about utilizing Rikers, ICE on Rikers was Councilman

5079
02:54:41,880 --> 02:54:42,240
Holden.

5080
02:54:42,800 --> 02:54:46,100
This is before this administration took off.

5081
02:54:46,100 --> 02:54:47,600
Holden reached out.

5082
02:54:48,600 --> 02:54:49,500
As a matter of fact, I got a

5083
02:54:49,500 --> 02:54:49,860
few texts.

5084
02:54:49,960 --> 02:54:51,040
What is wrong with him?

5085
02:54:51,260 --> 02:54:53,300
He can't, he can't get three words out

5086
02:54:53,300 --> 02:54:55,720
at the same time, concurrently.

5087
02:54:59,040 --> 02:55:02,440
Rikers, ICE on Rikers was Councilman Holden.

5088
02:55:03,160 --> 02:55:06,340
This is before this administration took off.

5089
02:55:06,720 --> 02:55:08,440
Holden reached out.

5090
02:55:08,900 --> 02:55:09,740
As a matter of fact, I got a

5091
02:55:09,740 --> 02:55:12,660
few text messages from him that's saying, listen,

5092
02:55:12,760 --> 02:55:13,580
why aren't we doing this?

5093
02:55:14,140 --> 02:55:17,740
Holden said with Adams' permission, immigration and customs

5094
02:55:17,740 --> 02:55:21,040
agents were able to successfully collaborate with state

5095
02:55:21,040 --> 02:55:24,120
and local law enforcement, leading to the indictment

5096
02:55:24,120 --> 02:55:27,820
of 27 suspected members of Venezuelan gang Trende

5097
02:55:27,820 --> 02:55:28,180
Aragua.

5098
02:55:30,820 --> 02:55:38,400
This is out of control, this resistance.

5099
02:55:39,620 --> 02:55:39,880
Yeah.

5100
02:55:40,560 --> 02:55:41,540
By the Democrats.

5101
02:55:42,620 --> 02:55:44,380
Now they want to let Rikers, the guys

5102
02:55:44,380 --> 02:55:45,740
that are in there, they can just go

5103
02:55:45,740 --> 02:55:46,240
grab them.

5104
02:55:46,380 --> 02:55:47,000
But no, no, no.

5105
02:55:48,200 --> 02:55:48,680
Unbelievable.

5106
02:55:48,900 --> 02:55:49,480
This is part two.

5107
02:55:49,820 --> 02:55:51,540
We send a strong message to Trende Aragua,

5108
02:55:51,660 --> 02:55:53,380
we're going to keep doing this to every

5109
02:55:53,380 --> 02:55:56,460
TDA member, MS-13 members removed from the

5110
02:55:56,460 --> 02:55:56,740
country.

5111
02:55:57,720 --> 02:56:00,940
Attorney General Pam Bondi announced on Tuesday that

5112
02:56:00,940 --> 02:56:04,360
27 alleged members or affiliates of Trende Aragua

5113
02:56:04,360 --> 02:56:07,560
had been charged under the RICO statute, a

5114
02:56:07,560 --> 02:56:11,020
law with widespread application that was historically used

5115
02:56:11,020 --> 02:56:13,160
to break up a mob organization.

5116
02:56:13,540 --> 02:56:16,660
ICE agents previously had a presence on Rikers

5117
02:56:16,660 --> 02:56:19,360
Island, but they were banned from operating there

5118
02:56:19,360 --> 02:56:22,940
in 2014 under New York City's sanctuary laws.

5119
02:56:23,500 --> 02:56:26,120
In February, Adams announced he would allow agents

5120
02:56:26,120 --> 02:56:28,860
to return to Rikers to assist with gang

5121
02:56:28,860 --> 02:56:30,720
and drug related investigations.

5122
02:56:31,600 --> 02:56:34,360
Council members in their lawsuit accused Adams of

5123
02:56:34,360 --> 02:56:36,360
agreeing to plan as a way to pay

5124
02:56:36,360 --> 02:56:39,400
off the Trump administration in exchange for dropping

5125
02:56:39,400 --> 02:56:41,140
criminal charges against him.

5126
02:56:41,680 --> 02:56:43,520
Oh man, they're still doing that.

5127
02:56:44,100 --> 02:56:45,600
It's all no good.

5128
02:56:46,220 --> 02:56:47,560
This is not a good way to go

5129
02:56:47,560 --> 02:56:47,900
out.

5130
02:56:49,660 --> 02:56:52,080
No, well, you mean of the show?

5131
02:56:52,080 --> 02:56:52,760
Yeah, of the show.

5132
02:56:52,900 --> 02:56:53,640
Yeah, exactly.

5133
02:56:53,940 --> 02:56:55,380
Oh, do I have anything funny?

5134
02:56:55,500 --> 02:56:56,580
Yeah, no, I got nothing.

5135
02:56:56,580 --> 02:56:58,380
I shot my wad on the funny.

5136
02:56:58,660 --> 02:56:59,320
I'm all done.

5137
02:56:59,620 --> 02:57:00,540
We should have done the...

5138
02:57:01,340 --> 02:57:03,080
I could do the faded tattoo.

5139
02:57:03,240 --> 02:57:04,240
Faded tattoo is good.

5140
02:57:04,240 --> 02:57:04,780
Okay.

5141
02:57:05,000 --> 02:57:05,400
All right.

5142
02:57:05,460 --> 02:57:07,020
This is your last chance.

5143
02:57:07,100 --> 02:57:07,480
This is it.

5144
02:57:07,640 --> 02:57:07,780
Sure.

5145
02:57:07,960 --> 02:57:08,340
This is all right.

5146
02:57:08,560 --> 02:57:11,480
In 2021, a company announced a new kind

5147
02:57:11,480 --> 02:57:14,960
of temporary tattoo, one designed to fade after

5148
02:57:14,960 --> 02:57:16,340
nine to 15 months.

5149
02:57:16,920 --> 02:57:19,680
Ephemeral Tattoo is the company, and it was

5150
02:57:19,680 --> 02:57:21,500
perfect for Ramey Isofano.

5151
02:57:22,280 --> 02:57:24,320
Someone who knew that they did not want

5152
02:57:24,320 --> 02:57:25,860
a permanent tattoo ever.

5153
02:57:26,360 --> 02:57:28,020
Isofano says tattoos are cool.

5154
02:57:28,120 --> 02:57:29,960
She's just not a long-term commitment kind

5155
02:57:29,960 --> 02:57:30,400
of girl.

5156
02:57:30,760 --> 02:57:32,560
So a few years ago, she thought, what's

5157
02:57:32,560 --> 02:57:33,300
the worst that could happen?

5158
02:57:33,300 --> 02:57:36,180
Little did I know that almost three years

5159
02:57:36,180 --> 02:57:39,460
later, my silly chicken on a skateboard tattoo

5160
02:57:39,460 --> 02:57:42,080
would still be on my upper arm.

5161
02:57:42,320 --> 02:57:42,660
Ouch.

5162
02:57:42,960 --> 02:57:46,380
Emily Kager got her ephemeral tattoo in 2022.

5163
02:57:47,240 --> 02:57:49,880
She's the proud owner of two dogs, Shaggy

5164
02:57:49,880 --> 02:57:50,760
Goldendoodles.

5165
02:57:51,040 --> 02:57:53,320
And she thought, why not get one in

5166
02:57:53,320 --> 02:57:55,100
space with an astronaut?

5167
02:57:55,340 --> 02:57:57,560
And let's even throw a few stars around

5168
02:57:57,560 --> 02:57:57,800
them.

5169
02:57:58,040 --> 02:57:59,760
I actually didn't even see the final design

5170
02:57:59,760 --> 02:58:02,260
until the day of, which at the time

5171
02:58:02,260 --> 02:58:04,640
felt fine because I wasn't expecting it to

5172
02:58:04,640 --> 02:58:05,680
stick around forever.

5173
02:58:06,460 --> 02:58:09,260
And yet Kager's space dog is also still

5174
02:58:09,260 --> 02:58:09,660
around.

5175
02:58:09,720 --> 02:58:11,760
Almost three years later, she said she recently

5176
02:58:11,760 --> 02:58:13,700
had to cover it in a foreign bathhouse

5177
02:58:13,700 --> 02:58:16,120
where exposed tattoos are not permitted.

5178
02:58:16,460 --> 02:58:17,120
Well, not ever.

5179
02:58:17,560 --> 02:58:19,820
Well, I'm glad that our tax money is

5180
02:58:19,820 --> 02:58:20,840
still going to NPR.

5181
02:58:21,040 --> 02:58:22,160
That is really good.

5182
02:58:22,540 --> 02:58:25,060
The faded tattoo story.

5183
02:58:25,220 --> 02:58:25,860
Excellent, John.

5184
02:58:25,940 --> 02:58:26,260
Excellent.

5185
02:58:26,620 --> 02:58:28,460
If you were wondering what's going to happen

5186
02:58:28,460 --> 02:58:30,740
next, we got tip of the day, we

5187
02:58:30,740 --> 02:58:32,460
got end of show mixes, we got nights,

5188
02:58:32,600 --> 02:58:34,400
we got Commodores, we got meetups, we got

5189
02:58:34,400 --> 02:58:35,720
all kinds of stuff.

5190
02:58:35,960 --> 02:58:38,000
I'm going to show my support by donating

5191
02:58:38,000 --> 02:58:38,860
to No Agenda.

5192
02:58:39,000 --> 02:58:40,940
Imagine all the people who could do that.

5193
02:58:41,140 --> 02:58:42,160
Oh yeah, that'd be fab.

5194
02:58:47,640 --> 02:58:51,840
First, we'll give you a smattering of funny

5195
02:58:51,840 --> 02:58:54,140
little one-liners from the people who supported

5196
02:58:54,140 --> 02:58:55,880
us $50 and above.

5197
02:58:56,020 --> 02:58:58,120
We want to thank everybody as always for

5198
02:58:58,120 --> 02:59:00,320
supporting the show financially so that we can

5199
02:59:00,320 --> 02:59:02,180
continue to do this as a public service

5200
02:59:02,180 --> 02:59:04,000
and never, ever have to go to a

5201
02:59:04,000 --> 02:59:05,040
concierge level.

5202
02:59:05,400 --> 02:59:06,960
John is going to read them for us.

5203
02:59:07,100 --> 02:59:07,760
Yeah, I am.

5204
02:59:07,800 --> 02:59:09,200
As a matter of fact, this is exactly

5205
02:59:09,200 --> 02:59:09,880
what I'm going to do.

5206
02:59:10,060 --> 02:59:13,600
Starting with Ian Field, $100 parts unknown.

5207
02:59:14,000 --> 02:59:17,840
Dakota Cole in Sherwood, Oregon, a hundred.

5208
02:59:18,760 --> 02:59:27,500
Ryan Rickenhagen in Townsend, Georgia, $100.

5209
02:59:28,740 --> 02:59:32,240
He's spreading the ITM gospel in Southern Georgia.

5210
02:59:32,600 --> 02:59:32,860
All right.

5211
02:59:34,020 --> 02:59:35,700
Good barbecue down there.

5212
02:59:35,940 --> 02:59:39,580
Sir Chris, not a spook in Arlington, Virginia,

5213
02:59:39,760 --> 02:59:40,820
which you know what that means.

5214
02:59:40,840 --> 02:59:42,260
He is a spook, obviously.

5215
02:59:43,280 --> 02:59:48,520
$88.73. Kevin McLaughlin, there he is, $808.

5216
02:59:48,620 --> 02:59:50,680
He's the Archduke of Luna, lover of America

5217
02:59:50,680 --> 02:59:51,740
and boobs.

5218
02:59:52,780 --> 02:59:57,100
That's followed by Cameron Linga in North Branch,

5219
02:59:57,220 --> 02:59:57,640
Minnesota.

5220
02:59:57,880 --> 03:00:00,180
And he says he's here and $77.33

5221
03:00:00,180 --> 03:00:00,760
from him.

5222
03:00:00,800 --> 03:00:03,460
And he's here for John's chimes.

5223
03:00:03,920 --> 03:00:05,520
The chimes, yes.

5224
03:00:06,740 --> 03:00:08,420
Yeah, that's a good thing to be here

5225
03:00:08,420 --> 03:00:08,640
for.

5226
03:00:08,640 --> 03:00:14,840
Brian Kaufman, Scottsdale, Arizona, $75.75. Matthew Elwhart

5227
03:00:14,840 --> 03:00:20,480
in Weatherford, Texas, $6.006. Andrew Foreman in

5228
03:00:20,480 --> 03:00:22,640
Boca Raton, Florida.

5229
03:00:23,880 --> 03:00:26,080
He needs some jobs karma, so we'll give

5230
03:00:26,080 --> 03:00:26,380
him that.

5231
03:00:26,460 --> 03:00:27,560
Oh, listen to what he says here.

5232
03:00:27,660 --> 03:00:29,420
He says he's facing a reorgan work.

5233
03:00:29,520 --> 03:00:30,480
It's a testimonial.

5234
03:00:30,820 --> 03:00:33,440
And Linda Lou Patkin has me prepared, thanks

5235
03:00:33,440 --> 03:00:34,340

5236
03:00:35,300 --> 03:00:35,820
Huh?

5237
03:00:36,600 --> 03:00:38,180
$55.55 from him.

5238
03:00:38,180 --> 03:00:40,840
And he also says the show keeps him

5239
03:00:40,840 --> 03:00:41,300
sane.

5240
03:00:42,320 --> 03:00:44,920
Well, that's because we're not concierge level.

5241
03:00:46,780 --> 03:00:51,480

03:01:42,060 --> 03:01:42,720

03:01:55,520 --> 03:01:56,060
husband.

03:01:57,120 --> 03:01:58,680
I would love to surprise him.

5261
03:01:58,680 --> 03:02:00,960
We are driving back home after our camping

5262
03:02:00,960 --> 03:02:01,300
trip.

5263
03:02:01,380 --> 03:02:02,540
Thank you so much.

We do.

5282
03:02:57,440 --> 03:02:57,800
That's good.

5283
03:02:59,080 --> 03:02:59,460
Good.

5287
03:03:07,940 --> 03:03:08,960
might add, very short.

5288
03:03:09,860 --> 03:03:14,440
Michael Myers in Mandeville, Louisiana.

5289
03:03:14,440 --> 03:03:16,520
I want to thank everybody that helped us

5290
03:03:16,520 --> 03:03:20,260
out here on show 1758.

5291
03:03:21,300 --> 03:03:23,580
And again, thanks to our executive and associate

5292
03:03:23,580 --> 03:03:24,640
executive producers.

03:03:24,880 --> 03:03:26,200
We appreciate what you do.

5294
03:03:26,260 --> 03:03:27,080
You've got your credits.

5295
03:03:27,260 --> 03:03:28,760
And of course, everybody who came in under

5296
03:03:28,760 --> 03:03:29,120
$50.

5297
03:03:29,480 --> 03:03:32,300
We never mentioned those for reasons of anonymity.

5298
03:03:32,300 --> 03:03:34,420
And we always have those sustaining donors.

5299
03:03:34,600 --> 03:03:37,700
Any amount, any frequency, it is so much

5300
03:03:37,700 --> 03:03:38,360
appreciated.

5301
03:03:38,800 --> 03:03:39,080
Karma.

5302
03:03:39,280 --> 03:03:40,860
So we want Karma and Jobs Karma.

5303
03:03:41,060 --> 03:03:41,940
So we'll add the Jaws.

5304
03:03:42,020 --> 03:03:42,860
We'll add a goat to it.

5305
03:03:43,360 --> 03:03:43,800
Jobs.

5306
03:03:44,140 --> 03:03:44,420
Jobs.

5307
03:03:44,420 --> 03:03:45,780
Jobs and Jobs.

5308
03:03:45,960 --> 03:03:47,540
Let's vote for Jobs.

5309
03:03:51,010 --> 03:03:51,130
Karma.

5310
03:03:52,070 --> 03:03:52,990
Noagendadonations.com.

5311
03:03:53,070 --> 03:03:53,990
Please support the show.

5312
03:03:54,610 --> 03:03:55,530
Noagendadonations.com.

5313
03:04:00,350 --> 03:04:02,370
And there we have Sir Haggis wishing his

5314
03:04:02,370 --> 03:04:04,770
brother Sir Ramen Noodles and belated happy birthday.

5315
03:04:04,890 --> 03:04:06,930
He turned 44 on 420.

5316
03:04:07,330 --> 03:04:07,970
Ria in Korea.

5317
03:04:08,130 --> 03:04:09,490
Happy birthday to her husband, Nate.

5318
03:04:09,590 --> 03:04:10,490
They're on their way back.

5319
03:04:10,630 --> 03:04:11,470
Oh, it's so nice.

5320
03:04:11,570 --> 03:04:13,890
And Sir Haggis himself turns 50 years old.

5321
03:04:13,890 --> 03:04:15,690
Happy birthday to him.

5322
03:04:15,870 --> 03:04:18,230
And everybody who celebrates his birthday today on

5323
03:04:18,230 --> 03:04:20,530
behalf of the best podcast in the universe.

5324
03:04:31,190 --> 03:04:33,690
And that's where Baron Steve Bansra of the

5325
03:04:33,690 --> 03:04:34,750
BNA comes in.

5326
03:04:34,870 --> 03:04:37,550
He upgraded thanks to an additional $1,000

5327
03:04:37,550 --> 03:04:39,630
over time that he supported to the show.

5328
03:04:39,630 --> 03:04:42,690
So he can now proudly call himself Viscount

5329
03:04:42,690 --> 03:04:44,470
Steve Bansra of BNA.

5330
03:04:44,610 --> 03:04:46,450
And we appreciate your contribution, Sir.

5331
03:04:46,790 --> 03:04:48,090
We have two Commodores.

5332
03:04:48,650 --> 03:04:50,810
It officially ends May 1st.

5333
03:04:50,830 --> 03:04:53,270
So if you want that handsome Commodore certificate,

5334
03:04:53,290 --> 03:04:54,070
you got to hurry up.

5335
03:04:54,090 --> 03:04:56,670
Go to noagendadonations.com.

5336
03:04:56,790 --> 03:04:57,950
Or is it noagendarings.com?

5337
03:04:58,210 --> 03:04:59,950
Or is it noagendacommodores.com?

5338
03:05:00,010 --> 03:05:01,410
Where can we find out about the Commodore

5339
03:05:01,410 --> 03:05:02,110
promotion, John?

5340
03:05:02,190 --> 03:05:03,630
Is it noagenderings.com?

5341
03:05:04,210 --> 03:05:05,890
I think at noagenderings you'll find it.

5342
03:05:05,970 --> 03:05:06,270
Okay.

5343
03:05:06,450 --> 03:05:08,390
We welcome the following two Commodores.

5344
03:05:08,390 --> 03:05:12,730
Commodore Cary Case and Commodore Mike.

5345
03:05:12,910 --> 03:05:14,930
Both of you now official Commodores of the

5346
03:05:14,930 --> 03:05:15,690
knowage of the show.

5347
03:05:16,990 --> 03:05:17,710
Commodores, arriving.

5348
03:05:19,550 --> 03:05:21,990
We got a layaway note, night note, from

5349
03:05:21,990 --> 03:05:23,370
Pierre Lamouche.

5350
03:05:23,470 --> 03:05:24,730
Hey, that was a pretty good bosun whistle

5351
03:05:24,730 --> 03:05:25,330
you got there.

5352
03:05:27,530 --> 03:05:30,330
Pierre says, Hey, John and Adam, in the

5353
03:05:30,330 --> 03:05:30,550
morning.

5354
03:05:30,630 --> 03:05:31,850
Or in my case, in the afternoon.

5355
03:05:31,950 --> 03:05:33,750
A bit long overdue, but my donations have

5356
03:05:33,750 --> 03:05:34,490
passed the threshold.

5357
03:05:34,610 --> 03:05:35,510
Time to make it official.

5358
03:05:36,250 --> 03:05:36,810
Chevalier.

5359
03:05:37,290 --> 03:05:40,010
Chevalier Pierre Lamouche de Francophine.

5360
03:05:41,030 --> 03:05:42,150
Maybe chevalier.

5361
03:05:42,550 --> 03:05:43,090
Chevalier.

5362
03:05:43,290 --> 03:05:44,110
What is a chevalier?

5363
03:05:44,430 --> 03:05:45,230
It's like a horseman.

5364
03:05:45,370 --> 03:05:46,430
I don't know, but I was thinking that

5365
03:05:46,430 --> 03:05:48,130
might replace the Commodore thing.

5366
03:05:48,490 --> 03:05:48,870
Chevalier.

5367
03:05:49,270 --> 03:05:51,110
Look that up while I'm reading here.

5368
03:05:51,410 --> 03:05:51,970
Chevalier.

5369
03:05:52,030 --> 03:05:52,690
I'll look it up.

5370
03:05:52,690 --> 03:05:54,490
Pierre Lamouche de Francophonie.

5371
03:05:55,190 --> 03:05:55,750
Chevalier.

5372
03:05:56,030 --> 03:05:58,270
Hoping for something with more culture at the

5373
03:05:58,270 --> 03:05:59,470
Fête du Round Table.

5374
03:05:59,990 --> 03:06:01,550
Normandie Brie from Costco.

5375
03:06:02,830 --> 03:06:03,390
Wow.

5376
03:06:03,690 --> 03:06:04,490
Oh, man.

5377
03:06:05,130 --> 03:06:06,130
Did I order these?

5378
03:06:06,710 --> 03:06:08,390
Normandie Brie from Costco.

5379
03:06:09,110 --> 03:06:09,630
Orangina.

5380
03:06:09,950 --> 03:06:10,450
Oh, yeah.

5381
03:06:10,510 --> 03:06:11,050
I don't like Orangina.

5382
03:06:11,050 --> 03:06:12,430
I think it was more classic than a

5383
03:06:12,430 --> 03:06:12,830
Costco.

5384
03:06:13,250 --> 03:06:16,450
And some vache qui rit, which isn't that

5385
03:06:16,450 --> 03:06:18,190
the laughing cow?

5386
03:06:18,510 --> 03:06:18,750
Yes.

5387
03:06:18,950 --> 03:06:20,410
Yes, that's exactly what it is.

5388
03:06:20,510 --> 03:06:23,910
And for the other night, cheese for other

5389
03:06:23,910 --> 03:06:25,210
nights, some culture.

5390
03:06:26,030 --> 03:06:26,310
Pardon me.

5391
03:06:26,550 --> 03:06:29,890
Chevalier is a knight and a member of

5392
03:06:29,890 --> 03:06:32,710
certain orders of knighthood of modern France.

5393
03:06:33,510 --> 03:06:35,170
Such as the Legion of Honor.

5394
03:06:35,530 --> 03:06:36,910
I like that, Chevalier.

5395
03:06:37,470 --> 03:06:38,170
I knew it was a knight.

5396
03:06:38,170 --> 03:06:39,150
I knew it had Cheval.

5397
03:06:39,270 --> 03:06:40,170
I knew it had something to do with

5398
03:06:40,170 --> 03:06:40,650
a horse.

5399
03:06:42,010 --> 03:06:42,970
Historical British.

5400
03:06:43,210 --> 03:06:45,430
Also the title of James and Charles Stewart.

5401
03:06:46,130 --> 03:06:48,030
Pretenders to the English throne.

5402
03:06:48,430 --> 03:06:50,150
So this is our one French guy.

5403
03:06:50,950 --> 03:06:52,950
He says, please give him our one French

5404
03:06:52,950 --> 03:06:53,230
guy.

5405
03:06:53,310 --> 03:06:53,630
This is it.

5406
03:06:53,750 --> 03:06:56,430
Please give Emmanuel Macron double goat karma with

5407
03:06:56,430 --> 03:06:58,590
hopes he might repent and break up the

5408
03:06:58,590 --> 03:06:59,730
father-son duo.

5409
03:07:00,030 --> 03:07:01,110
Because we all know.

5410
03:07:01,110 --> 03:07:02,030
Repenting.

5411
03:07:02,630 --> 03:07:04,870
Is he talking about his wife?

5412
03:07:05,310 --> 03:07:06,790
His wife being his father?

5413
03:07:06,970 --> 03:07:07,670
I don't know.

5414
03:07:08,150 --> 03:07:08,910
I think so.

5415
03:07:10,430 --> 03:07:12,590
Repenting sufficiently to free the French people from

5416
03:07:12,590 --> 03:07:13,950
the grip of EU tyranny.

5417
03:07:14,570 --> 03:07:16,550
If his demons can be cast out, he

5418
03:07:16,550 --> 03:07:18,610
might even let Marine Le Pen have a

5419
03:07:18,610 --> 03:07:20,410
fair election as next president.

5420
03:07:20,670 --> 03:07:21,270
Oui, oui, oui.

5421
03:07:21,410 --> 03:07:22,490
All the way home.

5422
03:07:23,030 --> 03:07:24,750
Merci for your ongoing courage.

5423
03:07:24,850 --> 03:07:27,270
May your exit strategy remain every loose serve.

5424
03:07:27,810 --> 03:07:29,390
Sorry, but we love you guys.

5425
03:07:29,550 --> 03:07:30,970
Selfishly want to keep you around.

5426
03:07:31,630 --> 03:07:32,410
Pierre Lamouche.

5427
03:07:33,310 --> 03:07:34,390
Yeah, I don't know what I'm doing.

5428
03:07:34,570 --> 03:07:35,910
I'm doing my best here.

5429
03:07:36,770 --> 03:07:38,930
So that means that we not only knight

5430
03:07:38,930 --> 03:07:41,230
him, but we also knight two other gentlemen.

5431
03:07:41,410 --> 03:07:42,750
So if you can grab your blade there

5432
03:07:42,750 --> 03:07:43,170
for a second.

5433
03:07:43,310 --> 03:07:44,050
Yeah, I got it right here.

5434
03:07:44,370 --> 03:07:45,050
Very good.

5435
03:07:45,150 --> 03:07:45,690
Here we go.

5436
03:07:46,150 --> 03:07:47,670
So step on up here.

5437
03:07:47,870 --> 03:07:48,670
Pierre Lamouche.

5438
03:07:49,850 --> 03:07:50,730
Marc Kaczorski.

5439
03:07:51,030 --> 03:07:51,650
And Schwede.

5440
03:07:52,290 --> 03:07:54,130
All three of you now become knights of

5441
03:07:54,130 --> 03:07:55,150
the Noah-Jenner roundtable.

5442
03:07:55,230 --> 03:07:56,730
Or as some would say, a chevalier.

5443
03:07:56,730 --> 03:08:00,130
So I hereby pronounce the KD as Sir

5444
03:08:00,130 --> 03:08:02,950
Chevalier Pierre Lamouche de Francophonie.

5445
03:08:03,410 --> 03:08:06,390
Sir Red Devil and Sir Schwede for you

5446
03:08:06,390 --> 03:08:07,130
at the roundtable.

5447
03:08:07,270 --> 03:08:09,110
By request, we have Hookers and Blow, Rent

5448
03:08:09,110 --> 03:08:10,150
Boys, and Chardonnay.

5449
03:08:10,570 --> 03:08:13,370
But also we have Sapporo and Sushi, Bellhaven,

5450
03:08:13,490 --> 03:08:14,870
Scottish Ale on tap, of course.

5451
03:08:15,230 --> 03:08:18,070
Normandy Bree from Costco, Orangina, and a little

5452
03:08:18,070 --> 03:08:18,970
bit of the Vashti.

5453
03:08:19,230 --> 03:08:21,170
Along with that, we always have the Bonget,

5454
03:08:21,230 --> 03:08:24,310
Suburban, Sparkling Cider, Nesquik, Ginger Gerbils, Breast Milk,

5455
03:08:24,390 --> 03:08:24,830
and Pablum.

5456
03:08:24,850 --> 03:08:27,010
And of course, the mutton and the mead.

5457
03:08:27,590 --> 03:08:29,250
Head over to NoahJennerRings.com.

5458
03:08:29,310 --> 03:08:31,230
Gentlemen, that is where you will find the

5459
03:08:31,230 --> 03:08:32,830
beautiful and handsome knight ring.

5460
03:08:32,890 --> 03:08:33,670
It's a signet ring.

5461
03:08:33,750 --> 03:08:35,470
So we give you two sticks of wax.

5462
03:08:36,030 --> 03:08:37,150
You can do anything you want with it.

5463
03:08:37,190 --> 03:08:39,070
But we suggest using it to seal your

5464
03:08:39,070 --> 03:08:40,570
important correspondence.

5465
03:08:41,090 --> 03:08:43,310
And as always, a certificate of authenticity.

5466
03:08:43,870 --> 03:08:45,090
Welcome both to the roundtable.

5467
03:08:45,150 --> 03:08:46,730
And thank you so much for your courage

5468
03:08:46,730 --> 03:08:48,710
and for supporting the best podcast in the

5469
03:08:48,710 --> 03:08:49,090
universe.

5470
03:08:56,530 --> 03:08:58,590
Yes, the Noah Jenner Meetups can be found

5471
03:08:58,590 --> 03:09:00,110
at NoahJennerMeetups.com.

5472
03:09:00,230 --> 03:09:02,530
This is where you get together with other

5473
03:09:02,530 --> 03:09:05,350
slaves of Gitmo Nation all around Gitmo Nation.

5474
03:09:05,470 --> 03:09:06,550
It is a global phenomenon.

5475
03:09:06,790 --> 03:09:08,750
People like to organize these all the time

5476
03:09:08,750 --> 03:09:09,430
and frequently.

5477
03:09:09,970 --> 03:09:11,430
Again, you can find the list and the

5478
03:09:11,430 --> 03:09:13,190
calendar at NoahJennerMeetups.com.

5479
03:09:13,270 --> 03:09:14,970
Connection gives you protection when you go to

5480
03:09:14,970 --> 03:09:15,510
these meetups.

5481
03:09:15,850 --> 03:09:17,130
These are the people who will help you

5482
03:09:17,130 --> 03:09:17,330
out.

5483
03:09:17,590 --> 03:09:19,530
They are truly your first responders in an

5484
03:09:19,530 --> 03:09:19,870
emergency.

5485
03:09:19,870 --> 03:09:23,090
I've been requesting people put their servers into

5486
03:09:23,090 --> 03:09:24,130
their meetup reports.

5487
03:09:24,650 --> 03:09:27,730
And the TooManyEggs.com Southwest New Hampshire Meetup

5488
03:09:27,730 --> 03:09:29,190
took it very seriously.

5489
03:09:29,390 --> 03:09:31,910
In the morning, gentlemen, this is Crypto Duke.

5490
03:09:31,990 --> 03:09:35,590
We're at the TooManyEggs.com Meetup number 11

5491
03:09:35,590 --> 03:09:37,850
here in Keene, New Hampshire at Margarita's.

5492
03:09:37,930 --> 03:09:39,450
I'm going to pass the phone around to

5493
03:09:39,450 --> 03:09:40,110
other people here.

5494
03:09:40,390 --> 03:09:41,110
Thank you, Josh.

5495
03:09:41,850 --> 03:09:42,590
Sirloin of beef.

5496
03:09:42,950 --> 03:09:43,750
How are you doing, guys?

5497
03:09:43,970 --> 03:09:46,670
It is an interesting day because we had

5498
03:09:46,670 --> 03:09:50,930
months ago a trainee waiter who is actually

5499
03:09:50,930 --> 03:09:52,570
six months ago.

5500
03:09:53,050 --> 03:09:55,530
And at this point, he has announced he

5501
03:09:55,530 --> 03:09:56,170
is leaving.

5502
03:09:56,450 --> 03:09:58,710
So we had his first day in this

5503
03:09:58,710 --> 03:10:00,890
position and his last day in this position.

5504
03:10:01,270 --> 03:10:02,410
You will hear from him later.

5505
03:10:02,530 --> 03:10:03,510
His name is Chase.

5506
03:10:03,910 --> 03:10:04,750
Hey, you two.

5507
03:10:04,930 --> 03:10:05,570
It's Joanne.

5508
03:10:05,770 --> 03:10:07,390
Thank you for your courage.

5509
03:10:07,650 --> 03:10:08,330
Hi, guys.

5510
03:10:08,370 --> 03:10:09,190
This is Chase.

5511
03:10:09,490 --> 03:10:11,670
And yeah, they came in when I was

5512
03:10:11,670 --> 03:10:14,690
first starting here about six months ago training.

5513
03:10:15,110 --> 03:10:18,230
And now today comes my last day and

5514
03:10:18,230 --> 03:10:18,890
I got him again.

5515
03:10:18,890 --> 03:10:20,570
And obviously, it was great.

5516
03:10:21,210 --> 03:10:22,810
You know, I try to do my best

5517
03:10:22,810 --> 03:10:24,730
and I just hope that everyone loves the

5518
03:10:24,730 --> 03:10:24,990
place.

5519
03:10:25,130 --> 03:10:26,350
You know, come back.

5520
03:10:26,490 --> 03:10:28,030
And I got my trainee Jade here with

5521
03:10:28,030 --> 03:10:28,830
me today as well.

5522
03:10:28,970 --> 03:10:31,670
So kind of a full circle moment going

5523
03:10:31,670 --> 03:10:33,490
from the trainee to the trainer.

5524
03:10:33,610 --> 03:10:35,350
But yeah, now I'm wrapping up here.

5525
03:10:35,450 --> 03:10:35,790
Here you go.

5526
03:10:36,070 --> 03:10:37,110
In the morning.

5527
03:10:37,650 --> 03:10:38,750
Yeah, in the morning, guys.

5528
03:10:39,250 --> 03:10:40,370
All right, let's review.

5529
03:10:40,510 --> 03:10:42,090
No, that was not what I was talking

5530
03:10:42,090 --> 03:10:42,290
about.

5531
03:10:42,350 --> 03:10:42,910
A quick hello.

5532
03:10:42,990 --> 03:10:43,570
I'm the server.

5533
03:10:43,670 --> 03:10:44,510
I love no agenda.

5534
03:10:44,610 --> 03:10:46,310
But anyway, thank you very much, Chase.

5535
03:10:46,960 --> 03:10:48,750
A couple of meetups taking place today.

5536
03:10:48,830 --> 03:10:50,950
The North Georgia two-year anniversary meetup, six

5537
03:10:50,950 --> 03:10:52,870
o'clock at Cherry Street Brewing in Alpharetta,

5538
03:10:52,990 --> 03:10:53,290
Georgia.

5539
03:10:53,670 --> 03:10:55,910
It's like a party in Sacramento in a

5540
03:10:55,910 --> 03:10:56,370
few hours.

5541
03:10:56,470 --> 03:10:58,670
It's six o'clock at Sackyard in Sacramento,

5542
03:10:58,890 --> 03:10:59,350
California.

5543
03:10:59,730 --> 03:11:02,090
On Saturday, the No Agenda Central Ohio meetup.

5544
03:11:02,190 --> 03:11:04,370
That kicks off at noon at Jackie O's

5545
03:11:04,370 --> 03:11:04,910
in Columbus.

5546
03:11:05,430 --> 03:11:08,510
And the Michigan Local One tariff-free meetup.

5547
03:11:08,590 --> 03:11:09,150
No tariffs.

5548
03:11:09,710 --> 03:11:12,850
Three must have some kind of concierge package.

5549
03:11:13,670 --> 03:11:16,470
333 Brewer Becker in Brighton, Michigan.

5550
03:11:16,930 --> 03:11:17,430
That's Saturday.

5551
03:11:17,630 --> 03:11:18,970
Also on Saturday, Flight of the No Agenda

5552
03:11:18,970 --> 03:11:19,750
number 62.

5553
03:11:19,950 --> 03:11:21,050
Leo Bravo does it again.

5554
03:11:21,270 --> 03:11:23,830
333 at Proud Bird in Los Angeles.

5555
03:11:24,310 --> 03:11:26,150
And our last meetup also on Saturday.

5556
03:11:26,330 --> 03:11:28,570
Escape from Chicago at four o'clock in

5557
03:11:28,570 --> 03:11:30,150
Reggie's in Chicago, Illinois.

5558
03:11:30,330 --> 03:11:31,770
I guess you go there and then you

5559
03:11:31,770 --> 03:11:32,790
plan your escape.

5560
03:11:33,250 --> 03:11:34,850
Many more happening around the world.

5561
03:11:34,950 --> 03:11:36,610
Go to noagendameetups.com.

5562
03:11:36,690 --> 03:11:38,010
This is where you can find every single

5563
03:11:38,010 --> 03:11:38,390
one of them.

5564
03:11:38,430 --> 03:11:40,310
If you can't find one near you, here's

5565
03:11:40,310 --> 03:11:41,270
a bright idea.

5566
03:11:41,410 --> 03:11:42,290
Start one yourself.

5567
03:11:43,190 --> 03:11:44,550
noagendameetups.com.

5568
03:11:44,650 --> 03:11:47,730
Sometimes you want to go hang out with

5569
03:11:47,730 --> 03:11:50,370
all the nights and days.

5570
03:11:50,470 --> 03:11:51,650
Bum, bum, bum.

5571
03:11:51,830 --> 03:11:54,090
You want to be where you won't be.

5572
03:11:54,270 --> 03:11:56,170
Triggered or hella lame.

5573
03:11:56,830 --> 03:11:59,910
You want to be where everybody feels the

5574
03:11:59,910 --> 03:12:00,250
same.

5575
03:12:02,350 --> 03:12:03,910
It's like a party.

5576
03:12:04,510 --> 03:12:06,470
It is just like a party.

5577
03:12:07,130 --> 03:12:08,630
Just like a party.

5578
03:12:09,990 --> 03:12:11,570
And let's see.

5579
03:12:11,570 --> 03:12:13,170
Oh, yes, it's time for the ISOs.

5580
03:12:13,250 --> 03:12:14,650
This is where John comes up with some

5581
03:12:14,650 --> 03:12:16,810
stupid AI stuff.

5582
03:12:16,870 --> 03:12:17,970
And I tried to beat him.

5583
03:12:18,070 --> 03:12:19,310
I tried to beat the machine.

5584
03:12:19,490 --> 03:12:20,170
This is now my...

5585
03:12:21,230 --> 03:12:22,830
Do you even have ISOs today?

5586
03:12:24,270 --> 03:12:24,670
No.

5587
03:12:25,170 --> 03:12:25,910
You have no ISOs?

5588
03:12:25,930 --> 03:12:27,910
So your whole premise is bullcrap.

5589
03:12:28,590 --> 03:12:29,690
Well, you just gave up.

5590
03:12:30,950 --> 03:12:32,810
It's like because you couldn't come up.

5591
03:12:32,850 --> 03:12:34,530
You didn't want to pay the 20 bucks

5592
03:12:34,530 --> 03:12:36,590
to 11 labs to come up with new

5593
03:12:36,590 --> 03:12:37,030
voices.

5594
03:12:37,590 --> 03:12:38,650
You just gave up.

5595
03:12:39,310 --> 03:12:40,970
No, I've got some in advance.

5596
03:12:41,950 --> 03:12:44,150
I'm having an outsider do some.

5597
03:12:44,270 --> 03:12:46,030
Why did you give up for today?

5598
03:12:46,090 --> 03:12:47,330
You have to have at least one ISO.

5599
03:12:47,670 --> 03:12:50,190
I have nothing because I just completely dropped

5600
03:12:50,190 --> 03:12:50,530
the ball.

5601
03:12:50,670 --> 03:12:51,850
OK, well, I only have two.

5602
03:12:52,790 --> 03:12:55,210
Bring up that best podcast in the universe.

5603
03:12:56,590 --> 03:12:57,810
That was no good.

5604
03:12:57,890 --> 03:12:58,490
That sucks.

5605
03:12:58,690 --> 03:12:59,670
I think this is the one.

5606
03:12:59,930 --> 03:13:01,390
I'm not AI Boomer.

5607
03:13:03,030 --> 03:13:04,090
That's no good.

5608
03:13:04,270 --> 03:13:06,230
This is better than anything, than nothing.

5609
03:13:06,890 --> 03:13:07,990
The first one was better.

5610
03:13:08,310 --> 03:13:09,850
I'm not AI Boomer.

5611
03:13:09,850 --> 03:13:11,510
I'm not AI Boomer.

5612
03:13:11,590 --> 03:13:12,430
You don't like that one?

5613
03:13:12,890 --> 03:13:13,810
No, I can't.

5614
03:13:13,810 --> 03:13:15,150
I can't understand her.

5615
03:13:16,850 --> 03:13:18,230
It's the kid named Wave.

5616
03:13:18,430 --> 03:13:19,430
Well, but then what are we going to

5617
03:13:19,430 --> 03:13:20,010
do?

5618
03:13:20,250 --> 03:13:21,670
Would you play the first one again?

5619
03:13:22,270 --> 03:13:23,170
Hold on a second.

5620
03:13:23,290 --> 03:13:24,170
I can cut it off.

5621
03:13:24,350 --> 03:13:25,550
I mean, I could make it short.

5622
03:13:25,690 --> 03:13:26,390
It's too long.

5623
03:13:31,530 --> 03:13:32,810
This is bad.

5624
03:13:33,250 --> 03:13:34,170
But I have this one.

5625
03:13:34,950 --> 03:13:35,890
That's a lot of tips.

5626
03:13:38,050 --> 03:13:39,570
I can't hear that one either.

5627
03:13:40,590 --> 03:13:43,110
Bring up that best podcast in the universe.

5628
03:13:43,950 --> 03:13:45,090
Well, we're going to have to go with

5629
03:13:45,090 --> 03:13:45,410
that one.

5630
03:13:45,410 --> 03:13:46,810
If you take the second yeah off, that

5631
03:13:46,810 --> 03:13:47,210
would be OK.

5632
03:13:47,290 --> 03:13:49,010
The second yeah is gone.

5633
03:13:49,150 --> 03:13:50,470
But now it is time for the moment

5634
03:13:50,470 --> 03:13:51,430
you've all been waiting for.

5635
03:13:51,550 --> 03:13:53,470
This is the original John Tip of the

5636
03:13:53,470 --> 03:13:53,770
Day.

5637
03:14:05,110 --> 03:14:07,030
So I've been getting these.

5638
03:14:07,430 --> 03:14:07,890
This is another.

5639
03:14:08,150 --> 03:14:09,470
This happens about once a month.

5640
03:14:09,470 --> 03:14:11,010
Do a cleaning tip.

5641
03:14:13,050 --> 03:14:14,390
And this is another one.

5642
03:14:15,490 --> 03:14:17,590
And these are all these brands, these brands

5643
03:14:17,590 --> 03:14:19,370
I never heard of, but they seem to

5644
03:14:19,370 --> 03:14:22,130
make really good quality products.

5645
03:14:22,270 --> 03:14:26,410
And this one in particular is Grandma's Secret

5646
03:14:26,410 --> 03:14:27,590
Spot Remover.

5647
03:14:27,870 --> 03:14:30,530
This is a laundry spray that has no

5648
03:14:30,530 --> 03:14:32,350
chlorine, no bleach.

5649
03:14:32,630 --> 03:14:33,090
I need this.

5650
03:14:33,150 --> 03:14:34,090
Toxin free.

5651
03:14:35,050 --> 03:14:36,630
A stain remover for clothes.

5652
03:14:36,890 --> 03:14:39,210
A fabric stain that takes out oil.

5653
03:14:39,990 --> 03:14:42,650
Blood, paint and pet stains.

5654
03:14:43,150 --> 03:14:43,570
Wow.

5655
03:14:44,290 --> 03:14:46,110
Goes for about 18 bucks for two bottles.

5656
03:14:46,730 --> 03:14:48,530
You can get it on Amazon and elsewhere,

5657
03:14:48,730 --> 03:14:49,210
but it's called.

5658
03:14:49,370 --> 03:14:51,430
But the brand is Grandma's Secret.

5659
03:14:52,050 --> 03:14:54,330
Now, does it also take out wine and

5660
03:14:54,330 --> 03:14:55,130
tomato sauce?

5661
03:14:55,170 --> 03:14:56,910
Because those are my two favorite spots to

5662
03:14:56,910 --> 03:14:57,190
make.

5663
03:14:57,530 --> 03:14:58,250
It should.

5664
03:15:00,820 --> 03:15:01,300
OK.

5665
03:15:02,560 --> 03:15:04,320
Kind of an anti-climax there.

5666
03:15:04,960 --> 03:15:05,660
Well, I don't know.

5667
03:15:05,760 --> 03:15:06,280
I don't know.

5668
03:15:06,320 --> 03:15:07,140
I haven't used it.

5669
03:15:07,240 --> 03:15:08,820
This is one of Mimi's tips.

5670
03:15:08,820 --> 03:15:10,820
You know, Bill O'Reilly, at least he

5671
03:15:10,820 --> 03:15:12,500
uses the stuff that he recommends.

5672
03:15:13,000 --> 03:15:14,760
This is like a Mimi tip.

5673
03:15:15,140 --> 03:15:16,760
There's a couple of things in abeyance that

5674
03:15:16,760 --> 03:15:18,800
I put aside because I haven't used them,

5675
03:15:18,840 --> 03:15:19,980
but people have recommended them.

5676
03:15:19,980 --> 03:15:20,960
I have to go check them out.

5677
03:15:21,580 --> 03:15:23,000
But Mimi, I trust her.

5678
03:15:23,360 --> 03:15:24,920
She knows what she's doing when it comes

5679
03:15:24,920 --> 03:15:25,480
to cleaning.

5680
03:15:25,840 --> 03:15:27,260
Why don't we just get Mimi on the

5681
03:15:27,260 --> 03:15:28,360
show for the tip of the day?

5682
03:15:29,100 --> 03:15:31,780
This is one tip from Mimi and I'll

5683
03:15:31,780 --> 03:15:32,900
tell her that you hate her.

5684
03:15:35,820 --> 03:15:37,720
No, because I need the tax information.

5685
03:15:37,720 --> 03:15:38,820
Don't tell her just yet.

5686
03:15:38,960 --> 03:15:40,140
Wait until I get the K-1.

5687
03:15:40,260 --> 03:15:40,860
All right, everybody.

5688
03:15:41,040 --> 03:15:41,420
There it is.

5689
03:15:41,480 --> 03:15:41,880
John C.

5690
03:15:41,920 --> 03:15:42,780
Dvorak, tip of the day.

5691
03:15:42,900 --> 03:15:56,100
tipoftheday.net and noagendafund.com No,

5692
03:15:56,100 --> 03:15:56,460
ow.

5693
03:15:56,720 --> 03:15:59,360
No concierge level needed for your tip of

5694
03:15:59,360 --> 03:16:00,680
the day here at the No Agenda Show.

5695
03:16:00,760 --> 03:16:03,040
In fact, you don't need anything to enjoy

5696
03:16:03,040 --> 03:16:05,060
the media deconstruction that we bring to you

5697
03:16:05,060 --> 03:16:07,700
twice a week now in our 18th year.

5698
03:16:07,840 --> 03:16:09,260
We are proud to do it as a

5699
03:16:09,260 --> 03:16:09,960
public service.

5700
03:16:10,140 --> 03:16:12,460
However, if you get any value from the

5701
03:16:12,460 --> 03:16:14,260
show, consider supporting us.

5702
03:16:15,360 --> 03:16:17,920
noagendadonations.com Yeah, and get in on the

5703
03:16:17,920 --> 03:16:19,680
Commodore ship before it ends.

5704
03:16:19,820 --> 03:16:21,280
Yes, and the Chevalier ship.

5705
03:16:22,480 --> 03:16:25,180
We have three end of show mixes, which

5706
03:16:25,180 --> 03:16:26,080
are all brand new.

5707
03:16:26,280 --> 03:16:27,140
Sir Michael Anthony.

5708
03:16:27,380 --> 03:16:29,340
We got Professor Jay Jones and Sound Guy

5709
03:16:29,340 --> 03:16:29,700
Steve.

5710
03:16:29,780 --> 03:16:30,320
It's been a while.

5711
03:16:30,340 --> 03:16:31,160
He's back as well.

5712
03:16:31,220 --> 03:16:32,220
I think you'll enjoy them.

5713
03:16:32,640 --> 03:16:34,240
They are definitely ones for the archives.

5714
03:16:34,240 --> 03:16:37,140
And coming up next on the live stream

5715
03:16:37,140 --> 03:16:40,200
in your modern podcast app, trollroom.io, noagenda

5716
03:16:40,200 --> 03:16:42,540
.stream, the Millennial Media Offensive.

5717
03:16:42,840 --> 03:16:46,640
This is already episode 166.

5718
03:16:47,040 --> 03:16:48,720
Everybody loves the MMO show.

5719
03:16:48,820 --> 03:16:50,900
It's a big hit over there in the

5720
03:16:50,900 --> 03:16:51,480
troll room.

5721
03:16:52,440 --> 03:16:53,980
And I am coming to you from the

5722
03:16:53,980 --> 03:16:58,240
heart of the Texas Hill Country where JFK

5723
03:16:58,240 --> 03:16:59,280
Jr is coming back.

5724
03:16:59,380 --> 03:17:00,920
And any minute now, we're going to be

5725
03:17:00,920 --> 03:17:02,280
under martial law.

5726
03:17:02,700 --> 03:17:03,660
In the morning, everybody.

5727
03:17:03,660 --> 03:17:04,580
I'm Adam Curry.

5728
03:17:04,840 --> 03:17:06,860
I'm from Northern Silicon Valley where we don't

5729
03:17:06,860 --> 03:17:10,500
see martial law coming in, but the fog

5730
03:17:10,500 --> 03:17:11,740
is coming in.

5731
03:17:11,820 --> 03:17:12,320
I'm John C.

5732
03:17:12,400 --> 03:17:12,560
DeVore.

5733
03:17:12,620 --> 03:17:13,820
We return on Sunday.

5734
03:17:13,940 --> 03:17:14,880
Please join us then.

5735
03:17:15,020 --> 03:17:17,960
And remember us again, noagendadonations.com for a

5736
03:17:17,960 --> 03:17:18,600
good time.

5737
03:17:18,920 --> 03:17:20,720
Go to noagendadonations.com.

5738
03:17:20,780 --> 03:17:23,240
Until then, adios, mofos, hui hui and such.

5739
03:17:23,400 --> 03:17:28,400
Hello, this is Klaus Schwab, the founder of

5740
03:17:28,400 --> 03:17:30,640
the World Economic Forum.

5741
03:17:31,180 --> 03:17:33,340
You may have heard of me by now.

5742
03:17:33,340 --> 03:17:35,480
I am retiring.

5743
03:17:36,860 --> 03:17:38,300
Yavol, yavol.

5744
03:17:38,800 --> 03:17:39,640
I give up.

5745
03:17:39,980 --> 03:17:42,160
The new world order is kaput.

5746
03:17:42,420 --> 03:17:43,460
We are losing.

5747
03:17:43,860 --> 03:17:47,220
But we will do everything in our power

5748
03:17:47,220 --> 03:17:49,900
to drag you down with us.

5749
03:17:50,260 --> 03:17:51,420
This is not over.

5750
03:17:51,900 --> 03:17:54,200
Hasta la vista, baby.

5751
03:17:54,780 --> 03:17:56,860
By September, we will know what has caused

5752
03:17:56,860 --> 03:17:58,320
the autism epidemic.

5753
03:17:58,500 --> 03:18:02,060
Government will know what causes autism by September,

5754
03:18:02,200 --> 03:18:02,760
you guys.

5755
03:18:02,760 --> 03:18:04,220
Mark it on your calendars.

5756
03:18:04,360 --> 03:18:06,380
Maybe it's some spray that we spray that

5757
03:18:06,380 --> 03:18:07,680
other places don't spray.

5758
03:18:07,820 --> 03:18:09,620
No, no, Kennedy knows it's vaccines.

5759
03:18:09,880 --> 03:18:11,940
Those of us who didn't get it never

5760
03:18:11,940 --> 03:18:13,280
regretted not taking it.

5761
03:18:13,380 --> 03:18:15,380
Time will tell whether he totally cucks out.

5762
03:18:16,100 --> 03:18:20,380
Why are there so many kids on this

5763
03:18:20,380 --> 03:18:20,480
planet?

5764
03:18:20,480 --> 03:18:22,960
Scientists do not know exactly what caused it.

5765
03:18:23,020 --> 03:18:25,720
What made the numbers rise?

5766
03:18:26,420 --> 03:18:27,960
Kennedy knows it's vaccines.

5767
03:18:29,140 --> 03:18:31,800
Autistic babies have increased exponentially.

5768
03:18:31,800 --> 03:18:33,400
It's an illusion.

5769
03:18:34,680 --> 03:18:38,400
Pharma got nothing to hide.

5770
03:18:38,420 --> 03:18:40,860
Eighty percent of autism is vaccine-induced.

5771
03:18:41,100 --> 03:18:46,040
Proud we were so, but most prefer deceivers.

5772
03:18:46,040 --> 03:18:47,540
Autism experts.

5773
03:18:47,980 --> 03:18:50,560
Something went wrong with vaccines.

5774
03:18:51,020 --> 03:18:52,960
Now, now, Kennedy knows it's vaccines.

5775
03:18:53,300 --> 03:18:55,780
One day he'll find it.

5776
03:18:55,800 --> 03:18:59,140
Partly compromises or gradually reveals the vaccine action

5777
03:18:59,140 --> 03:18:59,500
proof.

5778
03:18:59,500 --> 03:19:02,900
Bobby, the best Kennedy.

5779
03:19:03,800 --> 03:19:06,300
Virology is a fake science entirely pretending the

5780
03:19:06,300 --> 03:19:08,800
vaccines are an extension of that fictional science.

5781
03:19:09,100 --> 03:19:14,260
Who said that every stone could be inspected

5782
03:19:14,260 --> 03:19:18,220
when studies don't go so far?

5783
03:19:18,240 --> 03:19:20,640
They just need a couple more centuries to

5784
03:19:20,640 --> 03:19:21,820
do some research, you guys.

5785
03:19:21,900 --> 03:19:26,300
Great release, copy that, most dupes believe.

5786
03:19:26,360 --> 03:19:28,900
Scientists do not know exactly what caused it.

5787
03:19:30,600 --> 03:19:34,040
The cause of autism is anti-sensicism.

5788
03:19:35,500 --> 03:19:37,800
Kennedy knows it's vaccines.

5789
03:19:40,160 --> 03:19:44,100
Watching them roll up the sleeves.

5790
03:19:44,700 --> 03:19:45,860
Bitch about Coachella.

5791
03:19:46,300 --> 03:19:51,600
One day he'll find it, the spectrum connection.

5792
03:19:52,680 --> 03:19:55,940
Bobby, the best Kennedy.

5793
03:19:56,780 --> 03:19:59,740
What Trump did with this comment, and I

5794
03:19:59,740 --> 03:20:02,160
have a term for this, what Trump's doing,

5795
03:20:02,680 --> 03:20:03,700
it's called the blurt.

5796
03:20:03,980 --> 03:20:05,600
The blurt, the blurt.

5797
03:20:06,000 --> 03:20:08,460
This is basically what he did with, they're

5798
03:20:08,460 --> 03:20:09,640
eating the dog.

5799
03:20:10,080 --> 03:20:13,380
What I say is what I say, and

5800
03:20:13,380 --> 03:20:15,580
honestly, if you don't like it, I'm sorry.

5801
03:20:15,960 --> 03:20:19,980
They're bringing drugs, they're bringing crime, they're rapists.

5802
03:20:20,500 --> 03:20:23,520
This is the legacy of Hillary Clinton.

5803
03:20:24,080 --> 03:20:28,860
Death, destruction, terrorism, and weakness.

5804
03:20:29,180 --> 03:20:31,980
In Springfield, they're eating the dogs.

5805
03:20:32,260 --> 03:20:33,040
I like the blurts.

5806
03:20:33,100 --> 03:20:34,700
Trump just did it on the fly, I

5807
03:20:34,700 --> 03:20:36,180
don't care what anybody thinks.

5808
03:20:36,300 --> 03:20:37,940
The U.S. will take over the Gaza

5809
03:20:37,940 --> 03:20:39,960
Strip, and we will do a job with

5810
03:20:39,960 --> 03:20:40,380
it too.

5811
03:20:40,600 --> 03:20:42,180
He has also said that the United States

5812
03:20:42,180 --> 03:20:43,700
is not going to pay for the rebuilding

5813
03:20:43,700 --> 03:20:44,300
of Gaza.

5814
03:20:44,480 --> 03:20:46,920
And we will pursue our manifest destiny into

5815
03:20:46,920 --> 03:20:50,280
the stars, launching American astronauts to plant the

5816
03:20:50,280 --> 03:20:53,240
stars and stripes on the planet Mars.

5817
03:20:53,540 --> 03:20:54,480
I got another blurt.

5818
03:20:54,620 --> 03:20:55,640
This is a boomer blurt.

5819
03:20:56,600 --> 03:21:00,240
We're telling Ukraine they're a very valuable rare

5820
03:21:00,240 --> 03:21:00,460
earth.

5821
03:21:00,740 --> 03:21:02,300
So we're looking to do a deal with

5822
03:21:02,300 --> 03:21:04,800
Ukraine where they're going to secure what we're

5823
03:21:04,800 --> 03:21:07,300
giving them with their rare earths and other

5824
03:21:07,300 --> 03:21:07,780
things.

5825
03:21:08,160 --> 03:21:10,100
He didn't say he wasn't going to invade

5826
03:21:10,100 --> 03:21:11,960
Greenland, but he didn't rule it out either.

5827
03:21:12,320 --> 03:21:13,380
We have to have Greenland.

5828
03:21:13,640 --> 03:21:14,920
It's not a question of do you think

5829
03:21:14,920 --> 03:21:15,900
we can do without it?

5830
03:21:16,040 --> 03:21:16,760
We can't.

5831
03:21:16,760 --> 03:21:19,800
Rocket Man is on a suicide mission for

5832
03:21:19,800 --> 03:21:20,220
himself.

5833
03:21:20,620 --> 03:21:22,980
They will be met with fire and fury

5834
03:21:22,980 --> 03:21:24,920
like the world has never seen.

5835
03:21:25,200 --> 03:21:26,560
I'm not going to give you a question.

5836
03:21:26,840 --> 03:21:27,820
You are fake news.

5837
03:21:28,060 --> 03:21:30,180
Let's find out if they're friends or foe,

5838
03:21:30,300 --> 03:21:31,040
and if they're foe.

5839
03:21:32,980 --> 03:21:33,940
I wish they'd make us.

5840
03:21:36,180 --> 03:21:37,420
They call us Pocahontas.

5841
03:21:37,560 --> 03:21:38,840
They're eating the dogs.

5842
03:21:42,470 --> 03:21:45,570
The best podcast in the universe.

5843
03:21:46,270 --> 03:21:46,690
Adios.

5844
03:21:47,090 --> 03:21:47,530
Mofo.

5845
03:21:47,810 --> 03:21:51,010
Dvorak.org slash N-A.

5846
03:21:51,010 --> 03:21:51,510
Yeah!

5847
03:21:52,250 --> 03:21:54,350
Ringle up that best podcast in the universe.
