She's 27 00:01:26,610 --> 00:01:30,900 getting pretty close. She runs a little fever now and then but 28 00:01:30,900 --> 00:01:34,200 then in the middle of the night, you'd be like, Oh, just throw 29 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:38,610 off all everything has to go and she she's like, Oh, I'm in my 30 00:01:39,150 --> 00:01:42,330 everything's too hot.

It's a weird kind 33 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:54,210 of flu. 34 00:01:55,410 --> 00:01:59,070 It sounds like the doctor has one of those could be one of 35 00:01:59,070 --> 00:02:02,280 those crazy funguses or something that you haven't seen 36 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:06,990 these desert areas? Give me an A you could be more like a valley 37 00:02:06,990 --> 00:02:08,340 fever here in California. 38 00:02:08,580 --> 00:02:11,190 I have no idea what valley fever is? Oh, you should look 39 00:02:11,189 --> 00:02:14,279 it up a lot of California is and especially people that weren't 40 00:02:14,309 --> 00:02:20,009 raised in California can get get the sinkhole valley fever. And 41 00:02:20,009 --> 00:02:23,369 it's from the dust that when you have the certain times of the 42 00:02:23,369 --> 00:02:28,289 year when the when all the climate changes blows? Well, 43 00:02:28,679 --> 00:02:30,359 yeah, climate changes, it changes 44 00:02:30,390 --> 00:02:33,420 during the year. Okay, just the regular climate change. Yes, of 45 00:02:33,420 --> 00:02:35,850 course. And the wind is all of a sudden blowing out of the 46 00:02:35,850 --> 00:02:41,340 Central Valley. It brings us these spores into San Francisco 47 00:02:41,340 --> 00:02:45,390 Bay area, for example, and from like Fresno, and you get these 48 00:02:45,390 --> 00:02:48,420 things in your lungs and next thing you know, you get funguses 49 00:02:48,420 --> 00:02:51,270 grown inside. Yeah. And you end up with this flu like symptoms 50 00:02:51,270 --> 00:02:54,060 is called Valley fever is really good son of a bitch to get rid 51 00:02:54,060 --> 00:02:55,290 of. Yeah, well, we have 52 00:02:55,290 --> 00:02:58,020 Cedar here in Austin, which I don't think is hit yet. And I 53 00:02:58,020 --> 00:03:00,870 know that that gets to her. But this is these are different 54 00:03:00,870 --> 00:03:04,590 symptoms and she'll be okay. But it's Did you have a fever? Yeah, 55 00:03:04,590 --> 00:03:09,750 she's running a fever. Yeah. And she's funny though. She She 56 00:03:09,750 --> 00:03:12,420 really is in. She's been in bed since Tuesday. 57 00:03:12,750 --> 00:03:14,880 Is she a good sick person or 58 00:03:15,450 --> 00:03:18,720 she's a great sick person. Sometimes she's sometimes she's 59 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:20,730 a plus. Sometimes she'd like to get away from Marie. 60 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:22,560 Some people are bad. 61 00:03:23,580 --> 00:03:26,730 She's really good. I feel horrible. I just I feel 62 00:03:26,730 --> 00:03:30,840 inadequate. I just like I don't know what else I can do with 63 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:35,370 this. Yeah, thank you. Hey, oh, however, she does say funny 64 00:03:35,370 --> 00:03:37,470 things, man. You 65 00:03:37,470 --> 00:03:39,270 meanwhile while hallucinating 66 00:03:39,300 --> 00:03:46,620 Yes. So she says I have a dastardly flu. I'm like what? 67 00:03:46,650 --> 00:03:51,210 Yeah, it's my on Facebook. My one of my doctor friends says I 68 00:03:51,210 --> 00:03:55,860 have the flu. I have his dastardly flu. And that's it. 69 00:03:55,860 --> 00:03:58,410 You You're so sweet. Honey, you're European. You just never 70 00:03:58,410 --> 00:04:01,650 heard of this word because it's not used enough. But dastardly 71 00:04:01,650 --> 00:04:06,000 flu is not like a version of swine. It's a description it's a 72 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,330 it's an adjective. And she was all bummed out she's like what I 73 00:04:09,330 --> 00:04:12,000 thought I had like some awesome flu that no one had heard of. 74 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,790 Like the dastardly Egyptian flu or something and that's what one 75 00:04:17,790 --> 00:04:20,430 of her doctor buddies who put the whole Facebook thing when 76 00:04:20,430 --> 00:04:23,880 she's delirious is kind of interesting. Because she'd be 77 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:32,280 like, Look, honey, here's a video of dolphins clapping sad 78 00:04:32,280 --> 00:04:41,130 because I don't want to live out pretty sad is bad. This is no 79 00:04:41,130 --> 00:04:44,700 good. The household falls apart immediately. Nothing works. I 80 00:04:44,700 --> 00:04:48,510 don't know what to do. clean the dishes. That's what I do that 81 00:04:48,510 --> 00:04:50,880 throw it in the machine and everything and I was just like, 82 00:04:50,910 --> 00:04:55,230 ah, oh my goodness. I missed that we missed out on so many 83 00:04:55,230 --> 00:04:58,230 great obat opportunities because we had a whole bunch of things 84 00:04:58,230 --> 00:05:01,860 planned. Oh, that's a shame. Oh yeah, like a dinner tonight and 85 00:05:02,310 --> 00:05:07,350 tonight have been great because they'd be gloating. Yes, yes, 86 00:05:07,350 --> 00:05:09,780 indeed they would be gloating. And I'm glad you bring that up. 87 00:05:09,780 --> 00:05:12,270 But first let me thank you for your courage. John, 88 00:05:12,689 --> 00:05:14,849 I want to thank you for your courage. Adam. 89 00:05:16,740 --> 00:05:20,040 This has become the meme because you're on no agenda. Yeah, we 90 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:20,490 changes 91 00:05:20,490 --> 00:05:22,890 the changes from year to year. It's weird though. This 92 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,040 this one just took hold. We I think we only use it once or 93 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,160 twice on the show. And everyone, every email I get starts with 94 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:30,810 thank you for your courage. 95 00:05:31,860 --> 00:05:33,390 And it feels well it made you know, 96 00:05:33,810 --> 00:05:36,780 I think we need to say this to each other more often just in 97 00:05:36,780 --> 00:05:38,370 general life just in passing. 98 00:05:40,350 --> 00:05:42,930 You might as well just make everything meaningless. 99 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,510 You know, when I get one of those solicitors on the street, 100 00:05:45,510 --> 00:05:49,320 the ones that I hate the opinion solicitors and I'm always pretty 101 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,510 good at coming up with you know, when they leave. Hey, would you 102 00:05:51,510 --> 00:05:55,230 like to hate animals? Or would you like to save the whales? No, 103 00:05:55,230 --> 00:05:58,980 I hate him. I think I'll start off by Oh, thank you for your 104 00:05:58,980 --> 00:06:02,910 courage. See what see what that does to them. 105 00:06:03,780 --> 00:06:06,060 That's a great idea when somebody comes up to you like, 106 00:06:06,060 --> 00:06:08,580 Hey, can I ask you but I'd rather not. 107 00:06:08,940 --> 00:06:12,780 Thank you for your thank you for your courage, but I'd rather 108 00:06:12,780 --> 00:06:16,200 not. Which is kind of like a veiled threat at the same time. 109 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:16,710 I like it. 110 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,550 And I'm like, I'm not from these parts. 111 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:26,250 Today is the store. Monday, I guess maybe No, maybe when did 112 00:06:26,250 --> 00:06:30,930 this go into effect? It's so hard to tell any more with just 113 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,630 we're gonna get to this to the shutdown bullcrap. Which of 114 00:06:33,630 --> 00:06:37,410 course, as predicted right on time in the nick of time, with 115 00:06:37,410 --> 00:06:43,260 the same script that Boehner used on the the what was it the 116 00:06:43,260 --> 00:06:47,280 last time we had some crisis? It was the same thing. He couldn't 117 00:06:47,280 --> 00:06:49,890 get the vote. And then the the plan B didn't work. 118 00:06:49,890 --> 00:06:52,530 Yeah, you're just playing along with the Tea Party guys has 119 00:06:52,530 --> 00:06:55,590 shown that they can't when he plays the game, I think Boehner 120 00:06:55,590 --> 00:06:59,760 is doing a pretty good job of it. The ellipse, the late pass 121 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,790 is great. Did you see the thing where they? Oh, I didn't clip 122 00:07:02,790 --> 00:07:05,850 it. I should have clipped it. The Republicans slipped one 123 00:07:05,850 --> 00:07:08,460 through on the Democrats, which is irked the hell out of a 124 00:07:08,460 --> 00:07:13,020 couple of them. Where you can't bring anything to the house to 125 00:07:13,020 --> 00:07:15,480 the floor unless it's pre approved by Boehner. 126 00:07:16,710 --> 00:07:20,970 Well, yeah, we talked about that on the on on the last show, but 127 00:07:20,970 --> 00:07:24,600 we I don't remember. Yeah, but But it only pertain to 128 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:26,850 a this crisis. 129 00:07:27,450 --> 00:07:31,110 Yeah, well, not just the crisis. But but the the Obamacare 130 00:07:31,110 --> 00:07:35,490 funding of the crisis, quote, unquote, crisis. There was only 131 00:07:35,490 --> 00:07:39,000 to one little bit but but really, when you when you look 132 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:43,230 at the whole here's the analysis. Explain before we go, 133 00:07:43,260 --> 00:07:45,210 no, no, this is exactly I'm gonna set you up for this. 134 00:07:45,210 --> 00:07:48,240 Because I know what you're gonna say. The analysis that Yeah, I 135 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,540 think I do. I think it's almost been six years, John, come on, I 136 00:07:51,540 --> 00:07:54,000 know every nook and cranny of your body. Honey, I know exactly 137 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:54,780 where you're coming from. 138 00:07:55,230 --> 00:07:56,100 I present. 139 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,220 The analysis that no one has given is how the process 140 00:08:02,220 --> 00:08:05,700 actually works. And who was really holding up who, and I 141 00:08:05,700 --> 00:08:08,700 don't know anyone better than our very own constitutional law 142 00:08:08,700 --> 00:08:14,610 professor, John C. Dvorak. The C stands for cash. Who can explain 143 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:18,060 the process and why it really was? It's always been the 144 00:08:18,060 --> 00:08:20,580 Senate. It's been the Senate from day one, not the House of 145 00:08:20,580 --> 00:08:21,510 Representatives. 146 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:25,920 Yeah, no, that's true. I had no date in 10 that I wanted to do 147 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:27,690 the wrap up that I that I read, no, no, you 148 00:08:27,690 --> 00:08:30,570 can you can get to that. But you have to explain what it is 149 00:08:30,570 --> 00:08:32,160 first, because no one became okay 150 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:36,030 with that. But I don't really, I'm not really in the in the 151 00:08:36,030 --> 00:08:39,360 mood to do this. But I'll tell you this, to simplify it, that 152 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:43,320 all money that is spent by the government is is is called out 153 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:46,320 by Congress, Congressman is this is the holder of the purse 154 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:46,710 strings. 155 00:08:48,210 --> 00:08:50,400 This is important, we got to stop at this because this is the 156 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,580 power of the purse, which I think is Section One Article, 157 00:08:53,580 --> 00:08:56,400 Article One, Section Eight, I believe from the Constitution 158 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,070 and the Constitution in front of the concept. The Constitution 159 00:08:59,070 --> 00:09:03,480 specifically states that the House of Representatives can 160 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:07,650 decide which pieces of the government to fund and I believe 161 00:09:07,650 --> 00:09:11,460 that is, in particular, their their function, if it is a 162 00:09:11,460 --> 00:09:12,960 taxation, right? 163 00:09:13,980 --> 00:09:16,740 Yes, specifically, they're the ones who do find ways to get the 164 00:09:16,740 --> 00:09:18,960 money and how to spend it. They're the ones who say, here's 165 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,640 what we got, here's the money we got, here's how we're going to 166 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,790 spend it. Generally speaking, it's called the budget. And the 167 00:09:23,790 --> 00:09:26,280 Congress that you know, the House and the Senate work 168 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,590 together on this at some point even though the house has got 169 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:32,250 you know, supposedly supposed to do most of the work in the 170 00:09:32,250 --> 00:09:34,740 Senate is supposed to be a rubber stamp. And then the 171 00:09:34,740 --> 00:09:37,410 President has to sign off on it or not sign off, he doesn't have 172 00:09:37,410 --> 00:09:40,260 to sign it and if he doesn't sign like just what happened 173 00:09:40,260 --> 00:09:43,860 this time they had a budget it was fine and they had decided to 174 00:09:43,860 --> 00:09:46,950 just leave the Obamacare funding out which is fine too. They can 175 00:09:46,950 --> 00:09:49,800 do that it's been done before but everyone withdrawal the law 176 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:50,910 of the land the law. 177 00:09:51,390 --> 00:09:54,300 Now let me ask you a question. The way I understand it is they 178 00:09:54,300 --> 00:09:59,520 can pass this on they can pass on a bill about motorcycle rear 179 00:09:59,550 --> 00:10:04,410 tire ers and the Senate can take that bill, rip it all out. They 180 00:10:04,410 --> 00:10:07,080 have the right to do that and put in anything they want, which 181 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:08,910 they've done in the past. They could they could have written 182 00:10:08,910 --> 00:10:13,290 their own their own law, their own bill, their son has to prove 183 00:10:13,290 --> 00:10:16,590 it. You but they still could have done that at any point. 184 00:10:16,590 --> 00:10:20,040 They could have passed any piece they wanted to any habits, 185 00:10:20,070 --> 00:10:22,830 but they still but at the end of the day, the two hot the two 186 00:10:22,830 --> 00:10:27,060 houses have to approve the final product. Right. Okay. 187 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:32,400 So I'm saying it's not just one side that is keeping stuff up. 188 00:10:33,030 --> 00:10:36,270 I mean, oh, David, the house had done a bill was completed. It 189 00:10:36,270 --> 00:10:39,870 was weeks and weeks ago is way before the shutdown. And it was 190 00:10:39,870 --> 00:10:42,750 and it was it was pretty much the budget with that what 191 00:10:42,750 --> 00:10:46,110 everybody kind of wanted. And they went it but it had one 192 00:10:46,110 --> 00:10:47,940 thing in there was that we're not going to pay for this 193 00:10:47,940 --> 00:10:51,960 Obamacare thing. And which was which was not not an unusual 194 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,870 thing. If people had read my news or your newsletter, 195 00:10:55,020 --> 00:10:56,790 newsletter that was done in. 196 00:10:57,270 --> 00:11:01,620 It's okay. It's your newsletter now. I see the writing on the 197 00:11:01,620 --> 00:11:05,250 wall. Yeah. That's how it always starts. 198 00:11:06,090 --> 00:11:09,390 Yeah, all right. Yeah. So anyway, if the newsletter has a 199 00:11:09,750 --> 00:11:14,250 link to a very good column by atomic or by soul, 200 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,460 yes, actually was the guy who put it in the show notes under 201 00:11:17,460 --> 00:11:18,000 Sharia. 202 00:11:18,270 --> 00:11:22,170 Very good to read. It's very simple. And if they had to build 203 00:11:22,170 --> 00:11:24,990 them, but if Obama wasn't gonna buy into this, and he 204 00:11:25,020 --> 00:11:29,670 apparently, he called their bluff. Essentially, Obama said 205 00:11:29,670 --> 00:11:32,340 that, and I can't even talk my way or the highway, which is 206 00:11:32,340 --> 00:11:33,540 what the Republicans always 207 00:11:33,540 --> 00:11:36,510 said. But you know what he did? He did, he called their bluff 208 00:11:36,510 --> 00:11:38,160 and he was save the world. 209 00:11:38,910 --> 00:11:41,520 And so now everyone thinks he's a big hero, when in fact, he was 210 00:11:42,750 --> 00:11:44,550 a divider. Yes. 211 00:11:45,870 --> 00:11:50,070 He's a fighter, not a lover. And he saved the world. He saved the 212 00:11:50,070 --> 00:11:54,210 world. John, he pulled us back from the brink once again, save 213 00:11:54,210 --> 00:11:54,810 the world. 214 00:11:55,260 --> 00:11:57,630 The guy is amazing. I you 215 00:11:57,630 --> 00:12:00,330 know, me, I'd like I like to go read these things. So this is 216 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,560 got this got to be the worst hr 2775. Well, of course, they 217 00:12:04,560 --> 00:12:06,120 slipped a lot of things in here. 218 00:12:06,330 --> 00:12:09,990 Oh, yeah. In fact, no, that's what they always do. 219 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,860 But that was a big one here for Mitch McConnell. Mitch McConnell 220 00:12:13,860 --> 00:12:19,140 snuck a beauty in or like, like a $2 billion increase in some 221 00:12:19,140 --> 00:12:24,360 damn project in his in his hometown or whatever. Which and 222 00:12:24,420 --> 00:12:27,330 but the way they did it is so that it wouldn't look like he 223 00:12:27,330 --> 00:12:33,450 slipped it in the deal they made is that Pelosi and Reid said, 224 00:12:33,450 --> 00:12:37,830 no, no, we put that in. Because if we cancelled out that 225 00:12:37,830 --> 00:12:41,550 project, it would cost the American taxpayer like $106 226 00:12:41,550 --> 00:12:44,610 million dollars. So oh, we couldn't have that. So, you 227 00:12:44,610 --> 00:12:48,120 know, what was a $700 million project we've now up to like a 228 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:52,620 $2.9 billion project. So I think McConnell was I mean, he was 229 00:12:52,620 --> 00:12:55,470 really good at this he got exactly what he wanted any head 230 00:12:55,680 --> 00:12:59,940 and he had the top Democrats admittedly shilling for him. 231 00:12:59,940 --> 00:13:04,920 Yes, it's great. These guys are such a halls great a number one 232 00:13:05,100 --> 00:13:10,650 top of the class douchebag In fact, I got a dude unbelievable 233 00:13:10,650 --> 00:13:13,740 let me ask you the show comes comes down to it's just money 234 00:13:13,740 --> 00:13:15,000 for their own crap. 235 00:13:15,270 --> 00:13:19,500 You want to you're reading this? I want you to answer this 236 00:13:19,500 --> 00:13:26,400 question. There's a bunch of this the the shutdown cost the 237 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:31,110 American it cost Americans $25 billion the shutdown 238 00:13:31,170 --> 00:13:34,440 that's just numbers being thrown. No one can quantify you 239 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:35,370 lay everybody 240 00:13:35,370 --> 00:13:38,880 off in a bit you got a building right? It's it's cost so much to 241 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,810 run it you fire everybody in the building and shut the power off 242 00:13:42,870 --> 00:13:45,330 and now you're now you're it's costing you more than if you 243 00:13:45,330 --> 00:13:46,740 were running the building now you 244 00:13:47,250 --> 00:13:50,250 know, this is this is what people fall for with this bull 245 00:13:50,250 --> 00:13:53,580 crap number falling, or no, no, not You're not people. 246 00:13:53,819 --> 00:13:56,369 I'm telling you. Why did this do what where does this come 247 00:13:56,369 --> 00:13:56,939 because it's 248 00:13:56,970 --> 00:14:02,100 because it's a lie. In fact, right at the top here, I section 249 00:14:02,100 --> 00:14:06,030 115 of the of the settlement ensures furloughed employees are 250 00:14:06,030 --> 00:14:09,150 compensated and ratifies obligations made during the 251 00:14:09,150 --> 00:14:12,600 shutdown similar to language used in Past shutdowns, past 252 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:16,890 shows they should say so as you predicted, it was a nice paid 253 00:14:16,890 --> 00:14:20,490 vacation. Maybe it was a little unnerving because you know, you 254 00:14:20,490 --> 00:14:23,130 sit at home like Ah crap, man, what's going to happen? Not 255 00:14:23,130 --> 00:14:27,030 going to support the no agenda show I gotta save my money. So 256 00:14:27,060 --> 00:14:31,740 there was some of that but not everyone gets gets back pay. The 257 00:14:31,740 --> 00:14:35,160 effective date for this joint resolution is back dated. This 258 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:40,050 is one of my favorite things. They backdated to October 1, I 259 00:14:40,050 --> 00:14:43,140 guess that that makes all of us something Oh, that's got to be a 260 00:14:43,140 --> 00:14:46,980 financial thing. Something going on there. There's an 261 00:14:46,980 --> 00:14:50,100 authorization for the Food for Peace Act, which I haven't 262 00:14:50,100 --> 00:14:55,560 gotten into but it looks like a lot of fun. Extends authority 263 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:59,100 for activities to counter the Lord's Resistance Army and non 264 00:14:59,100 --> 00:15:04,620 conventional a system recovery. Okay, now there was 100 guys for 265 00:15:04,620 --> 00:15:08,700 the Lord's Resistance Army last time we were told about it. This 266 00:15:08,700 --> 00:15:13,140 is the whole Kony thing. And so now this we had to put this 267 00:15:13,140 --> 00:15:17,490 money into forgot about him we had to put this clause in for 268 00:15:17,490 --> 00:15:26,250 100 Guys, that stinks. So we have to look into that let's see 269 00:15:26,250 --> 00:15:29,340 what else was anointed there was a lot of just annoying things 270 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,370 extends authority for the chemical facilities anti 271 00:15:32,370 --> 00:15:36,060 terrorism standards program.

Yes, 315 00:18:12,630 --> 00:18:16,890 he has the same chance as as Rick Santorum. He is not an 316 00:18:16,890 --> 00:18:23,310 appealing person. No, he's he's condescending he's pompous. To 317 00:18:23,310 --> 00:18:23,550 do. 318 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,960 So what I don't like is all these federal programs and stuff 319 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,060 for the Secret Service and homeland security that is 320 00:18:30,060 --> 00:18:32,670 unspecified. Now to go and figure out what that is that 321 00:18:32,670 --> 00:18:37,110 part I find extremely annoying. I'm okay. With your state's 322 00:18:37,110 --> 00:18:39,510 representatives trying to get what's best for your state 323 00:18:39,510 --> 00:18:44,520 because at the end of the day, we're not a country. We're not a 324 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:48,540 we're not united. We're fine. I live in Texas, man. I saw a 325 00:18:48,540 --> 00:18:50,550 bumper sticker the other day y'all can go to hell.

And 331 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,230 then of course, if you listen to no agenda show, you just sat 332 00:19:16,230 --> 00:19:18,630 back and relax and you knew that it would all get taken care of 333 00:19:18,630 --> 00:19:22,230 at the last minute minute as happened as promised. Here's 334 00:19:22,230 --> 00:19:29,550 MSNBC. This is Thomas Roberts.

I'm gonna 362 00:20:58,530 --> 00:21:02,580 guess. I can't remember. Yeah, he's like a douche. They're both 363 00:21:02,580 --> 00:21:02,760 Yeah, 364 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:06,480 he's one of the worst. He's also the biggest Muslim. Bader. 365 00:21:06,810 --> 00:21:10,830 So Debbie Washington. Yes, Debbie Wasserman Schultz is she 366 00:21:10,830 --> 00:21:14,160 is in charge of the Democratic Party. She she's the chair 367 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:18,000 person. And she said something I found to be very interesting, 368 00:21:18,030 --> 00:21:22,980 although, right in line with MSNBC viewers who love this idea 369 00:21:23,010 --> 00:21:25,170 brought up a concept that you've been talking about with 370 00:21:25,170 --> 00:21:29,340 Republican women. Tell Peter, and let's see if he agrees. So 371 00:21:29,700 --> 00:21:30,690 this could be solved. So 372 00:21:30,690 --> 00:21:33,780 Peter, if if we put all the women Republican and Democrat in 373 00:21:33,780 --> 00:21:37,680 the House together, the consensus from all of us is that 374 00:21:37,710 --> 00:21:39,810 we would get this done in a few hours theater. 375 00:21:40,350 --> 00:21:46,890 So she just said, If it was up to the women, then we'd have 376 00:21:46,890 --> 00:21:50,580 this done in a few hours. Don't you 377 00:21:50,580 --> 00:21:54,960 think he has a sexist pig thing to say? Yeah. But this is this, 378 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:58,110 by the way, was not only her saying that there was a bunch of 379 00:21:58,110 --> 00:22:01,350 people saying this meme, this meme came out. Ah, and then when 380 00:22:01,350 --> 00:22:04,080 they when the thing was finally finished in the Senate, again, 381 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,650 because Susan Collins was involved along with a woman from 382 00:22:07,950 --> 00:22:14,760 Alaska to women. They took credit as women for doing this. 383 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:18,060 And so this has become kind of a meme that the women if we elect 384 00:22:18,060 --> 00:22:20,880 more women, this is just obviously, you know, an attempt 385 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:24,600 to get more women elected. If we elect more women, we won't have 386 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:28,350 these problems because these man, which brings me to another 387 00:22:28,380 --> 00:22:30,360 point that I'll be making later in the show, 388 00:22:30,450 --> 00:22:34,110 okay, bookmark that Peter King did he had a good comeback? He 389 00:22:34,110 --> 00:22:37,620 was ready for it. Oh, that's? Oh, I don't know. I think you 390 00:22:37,620 --> 00:22:43,740 should put Sarah Palin then they're also really let's make a 391 00:22:43,740 --> 00:22:48,570 hot woman from Alaska as the brunt of this joke. Right. What 392 00:22:48,570 --> 00:22:50,520 do you say to that? Debbie Wasserman Schultz? 393 00:22:52,140 --> 00:22:54,450 You know, I would argue that even if Sarah Palin were in the 394 00:22:54,450 --> 00:23:03,390 room, we could find a way to get a shot at about Sarah. 395 00:23:08,790 --> 00:23:10,950 You're all douche knuckles. 396 00:23:11,610 --> 00:23:13,050 So let's wait. 397 00:23:13,139 --> 00:23:19,019 I hope I hope I hope, I hope I hope I pray. I pray to my god 398 00:23:19,019 --> 00:23:23,669 Lucifer, that Hillary Clinton becomes president. I cannot 399 00:23:23,669 --> 00:23:24,209 wait. 400 00:23:24,659 --> 00:23:26,549 How much coffee have you had today? 401 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:32,940 I haven't actually, I've only had one cup. Because why am I am 402 00:23:32,940 --> 00:23:37,440 I to do I need to calm down here while I'm wound up? Well, I'm 403 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:39,720 excited because there's all kinds of stuff that I can ask 404 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,220 you about, you know, play the 405 00:23:41,220 --> 00:23:44,520 crisis wrap so we can get get rid of this this time. 406 00:23:44,700 --> 00:23:46,110 I don't know if we're gonna get rid of it. 407 00:23:46,470 --> 00:23:50,430 Under the Budget Control Act. This is far less than many of us 408 00:23:50,430 --> 00:23:55,500 had hoped for, frankly. But it's far better than what song had 409 00:23:55,500 --> 00:23:55,920 saw. 410 00:23:56,190 --> 00:24:00,120 The framework came from a bipartisan group of 14 senators 411 00:24:00,120 --> 00:24:04,410 led by Republican Susan Collins of Maine, this great country 412 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:10,260 deserves a Congress that can govern. And that was the 413 00:24:10,260 --> 00:24:15,390 unifying theme of our group. The agreement, they worked out funds 414 00:24:15,390 --> 00:24:18,660 government operations for three months at reduced spending 415 00:24:18,660 --> 00:24:22,290 levels already in place, and it raises the debt ceiling through 416 00:24:22,290 --> 00:24:26,580 February 7. The deal also calls for a congressional panel to 417 00:24:26,580 --> 00:24:30,330 negotiate a long term deficit reduction package. And it 418 00:24:30,330 --> 00:24:34,410 requires that Americans verify incomes to qualify for subsidies 419 00:24:34,530 --> 00:24:38,010 under the new health care law. That was the sole section 420 00:24:38,010 --> 00:24:41,700 related to Obamacare after Republicans spent weeks trying 421 00:24:41,700 --> 00:24:46,590 to block or delay parts of the law. Heart 65. Last month, Texas 422 00:24:46,590 --> 00:24:50,490 Senator Ted Cruz, a leading Tea Party conservative filibustered 423 00:24:50,490 --> 00:24:54,210 over the issue. Today. He said he'd vote no, but would not try 424 00:24:54,210 --> 00:24:55,710 to delay action. I have 425 00:24:55,710 --> 00:24:58,290 no objections to the timing of this vote. And the reason is 426 00:24:58,290 --> 00:25:01,470 simple. There's nothing to begin Ain't from delaying this vote 427 00:25:01,470 --> 00:25:05,130 one day or two days, the outcome will be the same. Every senator, 428 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,800 every member of the House is going to have to make a decision 429 00:25:07,890 --> 00:25:09,810 where he or she stands that 430 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:13,320 Arizona Republican John McCain, meanwhile, had oppose the 431 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:15,810 shutdown when he voiced relief today. 432 00:25:15,930 --> 00:25:19,200 I think it's obvious that we are now seeing the end of this 433 00:25:19,230 --> 00:25:24,150 agonizing Odyssey that this body has been put through but far 434 00:25:24,150 --> 00:25:26,760 more importantly, the American people have been put through 435 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:32,220 it's one of the more shameful chapters that I have seen in the 436 00:25:32,220 --> 00:25:33,810 years that I've spent here in the Senate 437 00:25:33,810 --> 00:25:39,240 now please, every year you've been set guy he is the 438 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,990 definition bullshitting is the definition of shameful that guy 439 00:25:42,990 --> 00:25:47,490 right there guys What an idiot and you know, of course this 440 00:25:47,490 --> 00:25:51,120 only take us to what February 1 I think that's a no that's the 441 00:25:51,930 --> 00:25:55,050 yeah so it's like to be continued.

And just take it off 444 00:26:02,790 --> 00:26:03,780 cable news so 445 00:26:03,780 --> 00:26:05,640 you don't you know if you're trading stocks 446 00:26:07,020 --> 00:26:10,890 Here we go.

And and then I 491 00:29:05,370 --> 00:29:08,580 said but what do you want to be when you grow up? You know 492 00:29:08,580 --> 00:29:09,720 what's your answer was 493 00:29:11,940 --> 00:29:18,630 a massage therapist scaffolding she wants to be like scaffolding 494 00:29:18,630 --> 00:29:19,770 that makes sense. 495 00:29:19,860 --> 00:29:23,010 This is why this comes back to the construction. She says right 496 00:29:23,010 --> 00:29:25,410 now in New Zealand because of the you know, the big 497 00:29:25,410 --> 00:29:29,040 earthquakes they had.

The government has has all scaffolding in place. There's no 500 00:29:37,830 --> 00:29:40,830 no more scaffolding in New Zealand. So no one can build 501 00:29:40,830 --> 00:29:44,100 anything because all the scaffolding has been slipped up 502 00:29:44,100 --> 00:29:46,800 by the government and is outside of you know, government 503 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:51,990 buildings, etc. And she's like, this is the business and morons 504 00:29:51,990 --> 00:29:58,110 can put it together. I'm in the curry divorce Investment Group 505 00:29:58,140 --> 00:30:05,610 hedge fund are in so scaffold scaffolding. Anyway, onward does 506 00:30:05,610 --> 00:30:10,290 sorry about the the sidetrack Obama, as he announced this deal 507 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:14,220 throughout the V largest performative I have ever seen 508 00:30:14,220 --> 00:30:18,450 him give, which I wanted to share. And as you know, we have 509 00:30:18,450 --> 00:30:21,300 learned from performative that when a politician most likely, 510 00:30:21,300 --> 00:30:24,750 but anyone is about to give you a load of crap, and he's going 511 00:30:24,750 --> 00:30:28,770 to purposely lie, but without lying, because he only is 512 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:32,400 referring back to the performative that he uses, then 513 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:34,710 it's pretty much all bullcrap. And it's a lie. 514 00:30:35,100 --> 00:30:41,790 I'll give an example, please. In fact, let me say this, about 515 00:30:41,790 --> 00:30:43,230 that. Exactly. You've done 516 00:30:43,230 --> 00:30:45,750 it already. So you're just saying something you're not 517 00:30:45,780 --> 00:30:49,050 you're not say stating anything is true, or a even as a brief? 518 00:30:49,770 --> 00:30:52,530 And then so everything after that refers to what I just said, 519 00:30:52,530 --> 00:30:56,130 which is, let me say this about that. Everybody's crazy. I mean, 520 00:30:56,130 --> 00:30:58,290 and then you've been, right, it's got nothing to do with 521 00:30:58,290 --> 00:30:59,340 anything. No, you say, 522 00:30:59,460 --> 00:31:03,780 the president, tell the lie is that he wants to work with 523 00:31:03,780 --> 00:31:07,110 everybody, and he'll do anything necessary. And he wants to help 524 00:31:07,110 --> 00:31:10,770 the people. And so Save the Children and make the world a 525 00:31:10,770 --> 00:31:13,830 better place. That's the lie. But he sets it up beautifully 526 00:31:13,830 --> 00:31:16,590 with actually a Bill Clinton asked performance 527 00:31:16,620 --> 00:31:20,250 immediately. And we can begin to lift this cloud of uncertainty 528 00:31:20,250 --> 00:31:23,730 and unease from our businesses, and from the American people. 529 00:31:24,330 --> 00:31:27,690 I'll have more to say about this tomorrow. And I've got some 530 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,930 thoughts about how we can move forward in the remainder of the 531 00:31:30,930 --> 00:31:36,390 year, stay focused on the job at hand. Because there's a lot of 532 00:31:36,390 --> 00:31:39,060 work ahead of the standby, including our need to earn back 533 00:31:39,090 --> 00:31:42,180 the trust of the American people that's been lost over the last 534 00:31:42,180 --> 00:31:46,170 few weeks. And we can begin to do that by addressing the real 535 00:31:46,230 --> 00:31:49,440 issues that they care about. All right, so here comes the Get 536 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,590 ready. I've said it before. I'll say it again. 537 00:31:55,830 --> 00:31:58,950 Wow, that is that's a Clinton one. That's what Clinton knew. 538 00:31:58,950 --> 00:31:59,880 That's what Ray 539 00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:02,310 said it before. And I'll say it again, 540 00:32:02,429 --> 00:32:06,359 I'm willing to work with anybody I'm eager to work with anybody, 541 00:32:06,629 --> 00:32:11,249 Democrat or Republican House or Senate members on any idea that 542 00:32:11,249 --> 00:32:14,789 will grow our economy, create new jobs, strengthen the middle 543 00:32:14,789 --> 00:32:17,699 class and get our fiscal house in order. 544 00:32:19,740 --> 00:32:23,640 So clearly, you don't mean that I said it before I'll say it 545 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:29,820 again. Fully actually that's so at this point that's just 546 00:32:29,820 --> 00:32:33,780 insulting to the to the no agenda, the audience. Oh, it for 547 00:32:33,780 --> 00:32:36,150 our Yeah, our group understands. And then of course, we had 548 00:32:36,150 --> 00:32:39,930 something crazy happen. And I knew it was going to happen. I 549 00:32:39,930 --> 00:32:43,890 knew something. I knew something was up. I knew the signs were 550 00:32:43,890 --> 00:32:48,420 everywhere. When Senator Barb What's her name again? 551 00:32:48,450 --> 00:32:54,840 McCluskey. Malinowski McCluskey, Senator Barb, this old bag of 552 00:32:54,840 --> 00:33:00,180 wind throws out not once, not twice, but three times as is 553 00:33:00,180 --> 00:33:02,130 perfect for the magic number. 554 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:06,600 Thank you very much, Mr. President. I rise then to speak 555 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:13,530 for approximately 10 minutes. objection. Mr. President, we're 556 00:33:13,530 --> 00:33:18,720 33 hours there it is one away from the possible to false of 557 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:22,680 the United States of America on its debt obligations. Now, that 558 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:27,150 was 33 hours of where it is, again, from the possibility of 559 00:33:27,150 --> 00:33:34,170 the United States of America becoming a deadbeat nation, not 560 00:33:34,860 --> 00:33:37,800 its bills not paying its bills 561 00:33:37,919 --> 00:33:41,729 to its own people and other creditors. Hi. 562 00:33:41,940 --> 00:33:46,140 When do I get my bills paid by my government? Oh, wait, one 563 00:33:46,140 --> 00:33:47,850 more. One more. One more. One more. 564 00:33:47,879 --> 00:33:52,259 We're 33. He just doesn't stop 565 00:33:52,260 --> 00:33:55,260 that code is the code was important because there was a 566 00:33:55,290 --> 00:33:59,130 bond trade that you could have made because just before they 567 00:33:59,130 --> 00:34:01,980 passed all this stuff, they were I was watching Bloomberg. And 568 00:34:01,980 --> 00:34:05,070 there was some guy on the on one of the trading desk guys, and he 569 00:34:05,070 --> 00:34:09,300 had this computer. I mean, he showed this spike on one of 570 00:34:09,300 --> 00:34:11,880 these other some bond in particular, that would have been 571 00:34:12,540 --> 00:34:15,540 the way he said this is the bond that would be most affected. So 572 00:34:15,570 --> 00:34:19,140 it collapsed, because it would be the if the government 573 00:34:19,140 --> 00:34:21,420 defaulted, supposedly, even though we know it wouldn't have 574 00:34:21,420 --> 00:34:24,390 really done anything. But if the if there was some situation that 575 00:34:24,390 --> 00:34:28,830 occurred, this was the one bond that would have not been paid 576 00:34:28,830 --> 00:34:38,310 out. And right after she dropped her 3333 33 If you had gone or 577 00:34:38,310 --> 00:34:40,950 actually you if you've gone short on that bond, and then 578 00:34:40,950 --> 00:34:43,770 gone long on that bond within a one hour period, you would have 579 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,680 probably made about five to 10x your money. I mean, how 580 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,590 did you hear about this? And more importantly, why did we not 581 00:34:49,590 --> 00:34:50,430 act on this? 582 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:53,040 This is the problem that the two of us have 583 00:34:55,710 --> 00:34:56,970 cashflow we're really 584 00:34:56,969 --> 00:35:00,179 good at Monday morning quarterbacking sitting In the 585 00:35:00,179 --> 00:35:04,619 couch sitting on the shelves could have made money. We could 586 00:35:04,619 --> 00:35:05,609 have been in on that. 587 00:35:06,990 --> 00:35:10,980 Yeah, this is, this is quite the quite the problem. Yes. Well, I 588 00:35:10,980 --> 00:35:16,290 took it differently. Although I appreciate that analysis. And if 589 00:35:16,290 --> 00:35:19,410 there's any links I can throw into the show notes at 557 dot 590 00:35:19,410 --> 00:35:22,860 na shownotes.com I'd love to do that, then maybe you can send me 591 00:35:22,860 --> 00:35:27,060 some. So So yeah, we got a lot of smart people who, who listen, 592 00:35:27,060 --> 00:35:29,280 who might be able to figure something out and help, you 593 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:30,390 know, get us in early? 594 00:35:30,689 --> 00:35:33,359 Well, we there's another opportunity coming up at the end 595 00:35:33,359 --> 00:35:36,929 of the year. Yeah. Where this will all play out again, all 596 00:35:36,929 --> 00:35:39,779 over again, investments that you can turn around real fast, you 597 00:35:39,779 --> 00:35:42,239 got to be done on your toes. So you can't be sitting around. You 598 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,699 can't be working can't be watching C span or something 599 00:35:44,729 --> 00:35:48,029 Donald's and spec to actually pull this off. But if you're 600 00:35:48,029 --> 00:35:50,699 sitting at the terminal, you could probably make some serious 601 00:35:50,699 --> 00:35:51,809 money really fast. I've 602 00:35:51,810 --> 00:35:55,470 always thought that if I gave up everything I do, and only 603 00:35:55,470 --> 00:35:58,440 focused on like a level two screen, and I just sat at home 604 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:01,320 and really played. I've always thought I could do it. Have you 605 00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:03,810 ever felt that you could really do it? If you just did nothing 606 00:36:03,810 --> 00:36:04,260 else? 607 00:36:04,529 --> 00:36:07,379 People can do it. A friend of mine actually does it. He used 608 00:36:07,379 --> 00:36:10,649 to be a publisher and he used to have all these you work for a 609 00:36:10,649 --> 00:36:13,259 living and now all he does his day trade. Yeah. And 610 00:36:13,259 --> 00:36:16,139 essentially, it's like, I think I must have brought this up 611 00:36:16,139 --> 00:36:19,109 before. It's like the guy I knew that used to be an HP engineer 612 00:36:19,859 --> 00:36:22,709 knew him pretty well, years ago, and he was a professional poker 613 00:36:22,709 --> 00:36:28,739 player. And he says even the most mediocre player, typically, 614 00:36:28,739 --> 00:36:31,559 and most poker players, professional poker players make 615 00:36:31,559 --> 00:36:36,719 about $125,000 a year playing poker all the time. The problem 616 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:40,889 is, you have to be playing poker all the time. Right? Right. 617 00:36:40,889 --> 00:36:44,099 You're essentially just professionally playing poker all 618 00:36:44,099 --> 00:36:46,979 the time. And that's the same thing with this. This is doesn't 619 00:36:46,979 --> 00:36:51,839 sound like a lot of fun for 125, who was 125 million? Yeah, I 620 00:36:51,839 --> 00:36:55,679 could see doing it. But for just because you like playing poker. 621 00:36:56,099 --> 00:36:59,579 You know, you can make 125,000 He says, And this I think the 622 00:36:59,579 --> 00:37:02,759 guy who's playing the stock market is probably doing okay, 623 00:37:03,119 --> 00:37:06,089 but it's not, you know, well, fun thing to do. 624 00:37:06,330 --> 00:37:10,050 Yeah, but at the same time, it's show is more fun. 625 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:10,680 Oh, no, 626 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:14,340 this show was a lot more fun. Even if we don't make poker 627 00:37:14,340 --> 00:37:18,600 money. But if I was playing the market, you're still you're kind 628 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:23,700 of doing a little bit of what we do for the show anyway, 629 00:37:24,090 --> 00:37:26,790 you can do a little bit of that you have to but since the 630 00:37:26,790 --> 00:37:30,420 markets rigged is what everybody who plays the market tells you 631 00:37:30,420 --> 00:37:34,290 right? It makes it difficult unless you're kind of part of 632 00:37:34,620 --> 00:37:37,680 their some scheme or you're you know, in the mob and you're part 633 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:41,490 of a pump and dumper. You get some sort of insight inside or 634 00:37:41,490 --> 00:37:42,810 you're part of Congress. 635 00:37:43,140 --> 00:37:45,780 You got to be on this. And you know, I know Annie Duke, she 636 00:37:45,780 --> 00:37:50,430 used to live near us in when we lived in Los Angeles. And I had 637 00:37:50,430 --> 00:37:52,890 her up to the house a couple of times, because she'd released 638 00:37:52,890 --> 00:37:55,920 books about you know, I had the big book show. I was doing it 639 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:59,760 actively. And, and I was looked at it because she was one of the 640 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:01,920 people she has plays poker. In fact, she started the poker 641 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,470 League, I believe I have no idea where that is. And you know, the 642 00:38:04,470 --> 00:38:08,430 whole idea is to sell television rights or have control rights 643 00:38:08,430 --> 00:38:13,080 over poker playing on TV. And you know, she's she has the 644 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:17,220 potential to be super hot. But she just looks ragged from the 645 00:38:17,220 --> 00:38:22,200 poker. It's just looking at her like, girl, you know, she has 646 00:38:22,890 --> 00:38:24,300 real potential, but 647 00:38:24,300 --> 00:38:26,130 you drew sitting on your butt. 648 00:38:26,850 --> 00:38:30,000 And her butt was the thing that was the biggest problem. Like 649 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,210 you gotta get off of that. But girl, damn. 650 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:36,840 No, that's not a business I'd want to be in. 651 00:38:37,470 --> 00:38:41,640 Anyway, I took this 33 as a warning for something weird to 652 00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:44,730 happen. And boy did it ever right near the end of this vote 653 00:38:44,730 --> 00:38:45,180 and to share you 654 00:38:45,180 --> 00:38:47,970 the comments of the president. Also, this is from C span. You 655 00:38:47,970 --> 00:38:50,820 may have seen at the very end of the vote that a woman came to 656 00:38:50,820 --> 00:38:53,880 the de us and was speaking to mics were off. Those mics are 657 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,850 controlled by the House Radio and TV gallery. The microphones 658 00:38:56,850 --> 00:39:00,090 were off. But here's the reporting of Jamie Dupree from 659 00:39:00,090 --> 00:39:03,810 Cox radio on that issue. He says one of the house demographers 660 00:39:03,810 --> 00:39:07,620 had to be taken off the floor. After getting up and screaming 661 00:39:07,650 --> 00:39:09,900 during the vote. We'll update that story 662 00:39:09,900 --> 00:39:13,890 as we are. So I'm looking at this and I have two pieces of 663 00:39:13,890 --> 00:39:17,460 audio to play. And they don't match up which is the 664 00:39:17,460 --> 00:39:23,580 infuriating thing. There was a an NPR reporter who I guess he 665 00:39:23,580 --> 00:39:28,560 has his own control over things. Because he started tweeting a 666 00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:31,350 SoundCloud file it says oh my god, I've recorded this woman's 667 00:39:31,350 --> 00:39:36,360 crazy rant. So the first I'll play the, the audio, the real 668 00:39:36,390 --> 00:39:43,200 the wild audio, where the the the where they called the Madam 669 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:47,550 President, is is gaveling This woman to get her to try to shut 670 00:39:47,550 --> 00:39:51,210 up. So she's just hammering away and this lady's Yellin You can't 671 00:39:51,210 --> 00:39:56,880 really hear what she's saying. But the audio that the that the 672 00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:59,670 NPR guy recorded doesn't have any of the gaveling in it. So 673 00:39:59,670 --> 00:40:01,140 here's the The wild audio first 674 00:40:03,270 --> 00:40:08,850 speech of the month Don't touch me. He will not be the greatest 675 00:40:08,850 --> 00:40:14,940 deception here is this is not one nation under God. It never 676 00:40:14,940 --> 00:40:18,240 was. Had it been, it would not have been. 677 00:40:18,509 --> 00:40:21,389 So this is actually the the wild audio. It sounds like she's no 678 00:40:21,389 --> 00:40:24,749 longer in the in the house. It sounds like she's in the 679 00:40:24,749 --> 00:40:28,799 hallway. And her name is supposedly Denise. But I think 680 00:40:28,799 --> 00:40:30,659 someone calls her Molly at some point. 681 00:40:31,649 --> 00:40:32,159 No 682 00:40:37,980 --> 00:40:41,280 written by Freemasons, they go against God 683 00:40:50,010 --> 00:40:55,260 Jesus Christ. I'm thinking she got one of those emails about 684 00:40:55,260 --> 00:40:57,360 Satan or something. And she's like, 685 00:40:57,810 --> 00:40:59,520 so wife swappers. Yeah, 686 00:40:59,940 --> 00:41:03,540 here's here's this to take part. So this is not the same audio as 687 00:41:03,540 --> 00:41:04,290 what has yet 688 00:41:04,290 --> 00:41:07,020 nothing to do with the 33. I'm telling you, the 33 was a coded 689 00:41:07,020 --> 00:41:08,430 message got people to go 690 00:41:08,430 --> 00:41:10,830 along. I'm already there. I'm just saying that something 691 00:41:10,830 --> 00:41:14,340 happened. And we're just we've moved on. We've moved on from 692 00:41:15,540 --> 00:41:18,990 what was so some crazy woman 693 00:41:19,020 --> 00:41:24,090 Well, hold on a second. Hold on a second. You can't just pass 694 00:41:24,090 --> 00:41:27,450 this off as just some crazy woman starts. She was a pet 695 00:41:27,450 --> 00:41:31,320 according to what the official report is. She was she's a 696 00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:35,070 stenographer who has been there for many years. And she's and 697 00:41:35,070 --> 00:41:38,130 this is supposed to be her. We don't know that for sure. 698 00:41:38,700 --> 00:41:41,610 Because now apparently, someone's name is Molly. And 699 00:41:41,610 --> 00:41:45,000 she's yelling about, you know, the, the Freemasons didn't write 700 00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:47,430 the constitution, they would never do that. You can't I mean, 701 00:41:47,430 --> 00:41:55,470 she's obviously it's going off in a atypical manner. And this 702 00:41:55,470 --> 00:41:58,050 is the wild sound, which I thought it sounded like people 703 00:41:58,050 --> 00:41:59,910 were yelling Allahu Akbar, quite honestly. 704 00:42:09,420 --> 00:42:10,770 seen our hammering her out 705 00:42:23,550 --> 00:42:26,340 now she's getting hauled off. So it's clearly not the same 706 00:42:26,340 --> 00:42:27,780 recording at all. 707 00:42:28,710 --> 00:42:31,320 No, this is something else. But you're right. The other one was 708 00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:34,230 done in the hall. Yeah, the queue into the hallway where 709 00:42:34,230 --> 00:42:36,720 they could put them, they can mic her, or has stick a mic in 710 00:42:36,720 --> 00:42:39,540 her face. And then she she continued her rant in the 711 00:42:39,540 --> 00:42:43,380 hallway. We have no idea what the premise was, because I would 712 00:42:43,380 --> 00:42:45,870 have been on the floor of the Congress. She's just bitching, 713 00:42:46,110 --> 00:42:51,450 moaning about some. Well, it's, you think that she was triggered 714 00:42:51,450 --> 00:42:55,050 by some? Some, you know, some code word. Next thing? You know, 715 00:42:55,050 --> 00:42:56,040 she's going nuts. 716 00:42:56,070 --> 00:42:59,400 She was talking to a couple guys look like she was talking to 717 00:43:00,630 --> 00:43:02,880 members of the House. And then she I mean, if you look at the 718 00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:04,710 video, you can see it. She's talking to some guys and she 719 00:43:04,710 --> 00:43:08,010 walks over, she walks right up and just starts yelling, and you 720 00:43:08,010 --> 00:43:11,130 can hear if you really listen, you can hear some things. But 721 00:43:11,130 --> 00:43:13,380 it's not. We're not sure at all that this is what she was 722 00:43:13,380 --> 00:43:15,930 yelling about this could it could be two separate incidents. 723 00:43:15,930 --> 00:43:19,410 But it shouldn't be just one. You can't just pass over that 724 00:43:19,410 --> 00:43:23,760 when you have a woman shot to death and unarmed mom shot to 725 00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:30,120 death outside because oh, she's crazy. You know, and why didn't 726 00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:33,330 they shoot her to death? Why don't we have a big ceremony 727 00:43:33,330 --> 00:43:37,380 right now thanking the sergeant in arms for protecting them from 728 00:43:37,380 --> 00:43:40,320 the crazy lady, another armed unarmed crazy lady, 729 00:43:40,410 --> 00:43:43,380 another unarmed mom. Yeah. Why don't we have that? 730 00:43:43,410 --> 00:43:45,990 You? Why is this just being glossed over? I don't I don't 731 00:43:45,990 --> 00:43:48,750 think that's appropriate. I'd like to know what's happening. 732 00:43:49,950 --> 00:43:55,560 Yeah, and because yes, I am concerned about the drugs people 733 00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:59,970 are being prescribed. And I think I'm I'm on the Abilify 734 00:43:59,970 --> 00:44:02,970 tip. Now. I think Abilify is the one that's that's pushing people 735 00:44:02,970 --> 00:44:04,290 over the edge. That 736 00:44:04,799 --> 00:44:07,679 Yeah, Ben because it's always an additive drug. So it's not you 737 00:44:07,679 --> 00:44:10,109 don't take Abilify by itself from what I can tell. 738 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:11,910 Well, at parties you can 739 00:44:14,310 --> 00:44:15,180 what a party. 740 00:44:15,450 --> 00:44:17,910 Yeah, if you party, you just take an immense pop and Abilify, 741 00:44:17,910 --> 00:44:23,790 but it's good. The only the only difference is for the first time 742 00:44:23,790 --> 00:44:29,580 in three attempts. This was not a black person. Which is another 743 00:44:29,580 --> 00:44:31,950 thing that is just not being discussed, and I'll bring it up 744 00:44:31,950 --> 00:44:34,410 here. It's crazy. No one just says it 745 00:44:34,590 --> 00:44:38,010 and attempted a prank could land one California man behind bars. 746 00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:40,830 Police arrested a baggage handler for allegedly planting 747 00:44:40,830 --> 00:44:43,830 those dry ice bombs around Los Angeles International Airport 748 00:44:43,830 --> 00:44:47,700 this week. officers arrested DeCarlo Bennett last night. They 749 00:44:47,700 --> 00:44:50,970 say then it admitted to planning the devices and blowing them up 750 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,010 but he says it was just a prank 751 00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:56,670 another black guy. So we've had the black guy Navy Yard shooter 752 00:44:56,670 --> 00:45:00,420 we've had the black unarmed mother who was was not shooting 753 00:45:00,420 --> 00:45:04,740 anything but was killed. Oh, by the way whose lawyer was 754 00:45:04,740 --> 00:45:10,950 arrested? And who so Miriam Carey sister has been denied 755 00:45:10,950 --> 00:45:18,090 custody of, of her sister's 14 month old girl. So she can't get 756 00:45:18,090 --> 00:45:20,670 that the lawyer the family lawyer says, Oh, this is not 757 00:45:20,670 --> 00:45:24,420 over yet. Boom next day, he's arrested on like bankruptcy 758 00:45:24,420 --> 00:45:29,730 charges and is thrown in jail. Yeah. And none of this is weird 759 00:45:31,350 --> 00:45:38,880 at all, and then fine. Oh, and normally crazy people are white 760 00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:42,660 rednecks if we just want to stereotype and generalize from 761 00:45:42,660 --> 00:45:46,800 the south with AR fifteens. To what what is going on and why is 762 00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:49,980 no one saying you know, hey, this is interesting. This is not 763 00:45:49,980 --> 00:45:53,520 the typical profile it's not a sovereign citizen doing this 764 00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:58,020 it's it's people who are probably likely to have been on 765 00:45:58,050 --> 00:46:03,990 the vilify Yes. And, and in the neighborhood of God knows what 766 00:46:03,990 --> 00:46:09,630 kind of external factors which could be radio waves or 767 00:46:09,630 --> 00:46:13,860 whatever. To this, so this lady was white, but we don't know 768 00:46:13,860 --> 00:46:16,710 when this will pass. We will not hear a single thing and I find 769 00:46:16,710 --> 00:46:23,130 that uncharacteristically annoying of the press. 770 00:46:23,970 --> 00:46:25,170 No, you don't. Yeah, I 771 00:46:25,170 --> 00:46:27,420 do. Right? It's very characteristically 772 00:46:27,420 --> 00:46:33,540 annoying. uncharacteristic at all 773 00:46:33,570 --> 00:46:36,270 look at how they blew up all the Yes, they've blown up all these 774 00:46:36,270 --> 00:46:38,370 other stories. And now this one is just oh, that's 775 00:46:38,370 --> 00:46:44,640 what they do. Yeah. Okay, they've been doing that. Since 776 00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:46,650 we started the show, and before actually, he has been doing that 777 00:46:46,650 --> 00:46:50,040 since the 1920s. Yeah, that's true. Well, then only there. 778 00:46:50,070 --> 00:46:52,020 Yes. If you fill all your chairs, no, no, 779 00:46:52,410 --> 00:46:53,610 you crap. 780 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:58,470 We'd rather have stories like this. Like what? Man over here 781 00:46:58,470 --> 00:47:03,360 sad tale and diner secretly plays pays for meal. When one 782 00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:05,520 mystery diner in Boston restaurant in a Boston 783 00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:08,220 restaurant overheard a mother and daughter gets some bad news. 784 00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:11,250 He took out a pen and scribbled this note to his waiter.

Researchers found that eating 805 00:48:22,650 --> 00:48:26,130 Oreos activated more neurons in the pleasure center. 806 00:48:26,970 --> 00:48:28,260 drains and exposure to 807 00:48:28,980 --> 00:48:31,620 the pleasure center.

And 850 00:51:02,730 --> 00:51:09,510 Stephanopoulos even sets it up. Well, I think it's this one. 851 00:51:09,540 --> 00:51:10,800 This is what we need. The Fifth Estate 852 00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:12,960 is being distributed by Touchstone Pictures division of 853 00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:18,270 ABCs parent company Disney and without. That says it all 854 00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:20,640 continue the debate. We turn live to Julian Assange. She 855 00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:23,100 joins us from the Ecuadorian embassy in London. 856 00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:25,800 And I wonder is he still at the Ecuadorian embassy is he is 857 00:51:25,830 --> 00:51:28,410 yours at this point, just a bookcase in his in his house 858 00:51:28,410 --> 00:51:30,270 somewhere in his bunker wherever he's living. 859 00:51:30,779 --> 00:51:33,089 He could have snuck him out somehow. Well, I'm 860 00:51:33,090 --> 00:51:34,470 sure they get him out once in a while. Thank 861 00:51:34,470 --> 00:51:37,470 you for joining us again, Mr. Assange. And you heard Benedict 862 00:51:37,470 --> 00:51:40,620 Cumberbatch there. He says he tried to neither glorify nor 863 00:51:40,620 --> 00:51:44,100 vilify you. And the film celebrates many of the what he 864 00:51:44,100 --> 00:51:47,370 calls the great things that Wikileaks has done. Do you 865 00:51:47,370 --> 00:51:48,030 accept that? 866 00:51:51,720 --> 00:51:56,280 Well, Mr. Cumberbatch wrote me a charming, very polite letter. 867 00:51:56,700 --> 00:52:01,890 And with genuine concerns about the nature of the script being 868 00:52:01,890 --> 00:52:06,840 used in that film. He's reported to have said to Vogon, to The 869 00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:13,410 Guardian, that he had fights with the director, who wanted to 870 00:52:13,650 --> 00:52:18,420 present me as a, quote, cartoon baddie. That's Mr. Cumberbatch, 871 00:52:18,420 --> 00:52:21,630 his words, I don't want to put words into his addition. This 872 00:52:21,630 --> 00:52:25,140 is where Julian Assange, by the way jumps the shark tunnel words 873 00:52:25,140 --> 00:52:28,710 into his mouth. But of course, he he is under a contract and is 874 00:52:28,710 --> 00:52:32,790 limited to what he can say in the film. I do know that he 875 00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:40,320 tried to ameliorate some of the worst elements of the script. 876 00:52:40,380 --> 00:52:44,070 But unfortunately, with limited success, what's your biggest 877 00:52:44,070 --> 00:52:45,270 complaint? Please try it. 878 00:52:45,750 --> 00:52:47,430 What's your biggest complaint that the film 879 00:52:49,170 --> 00:52:52,620 I don't know where to begin? I mean, we script well, before 880 00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:56,190 this happened, there was no approach to us are by DreamWorks 881 00:52:56,190 --> 00:53:00,270 in any formal capacity whatsoever, informal approach by 882 00:53:00,270 --> 00:53:04,050 Benedict Cumberbatch just days before shooting, shooting began. 883 00:53:04,740 --> 00:53:09,000 This is a film that is based upon my life's work, the work of 884 00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:12,840 my organization. We have people in extremely serious situations. 885 00:53:13,470 --> 00:53:14,340 Sarah Harrison, 886 00:53:14,670 --> 00:53:19,290 now. So he is he's now he said, he's about to say that they are 887 00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:23,010 irresponsible filmmaking, which is hello, pot kettle callings. 888 00:53:23,010 --> 00:53:26,850 Like this is the guy who's the radical whistleblowing 889 00:53:26,850 --> 00:53:30,690 publishing, you know, get everyone out in the open.

And now they're going to keep coming 892 00:53:37,020 --> 00:53:41,310 back to Sarah Harrison, which I think Stephanopoulos is poking 893 00:53:41,310 --> 00:53:44,130 because it's pretty well known that Sarah Harrison came in as 894 00:53:44,130 --> 00:53:48,720 an intern, Assange started giving her the special wiki 895 00:53:48,720 --> 00:53:53,430 stick, and she became like, you know, the senior legal counsel 896 00:53:53,430 --> 00:53:56,640 at WikiLeaks, and she apparently is now with Snowden in Russia, 897 00:53:57,210 --> 00:54:00,750 or wherever, wherever she's hiding out. And I think that 898 00:54:00,750 --> 00:54:05,160 Stephanopoulos his job here is to bind her to know to tweet to 899 00:54:05,160 --> 00:54:08,460 tweet Julian's nipples about about this because she's kind of 900 00:54:08,460 --> 00:54:10,800 hot. Oh, seeing was no 901 00:54:10,830 --> 00:54:14,700 possibility that she's Yeah, actually the nail is no, yes. 902 00:54:14,910 --> 00:54:19,140 Yes, yes. Yeah. It was found out of Hong Kong, now effectively in 903 00:54:19,140 --> 00:54:22,500 exile in Russia because of the terrorist investigation here. 904 00:54:22,770 --> 00:54:25,950 Jeremy had Hammond knowledge media source to 25 905 00:54:25,950 --> 00:54:27,030 organizations, including 906 00:54:27,030 --> 00:54:29,610 ours, and no one cares. We're gonna go back to Sarah Harrison. 907 00:54:29,610 --> 00:54:29,760 This 908 00:54:29,760 --> 00:54:32,940 is what George will do for sentencing in under a month's 909 00:54:32,940 --> 00:54:37,830 time, an ongoing grand jury investigation. What are the 910 00:54:37,980 --> 00:54:41,040 responsibilities for ethical filmmaker, 911 00:54:41,370 --> 00:54:45,060 responsibility for ethical filmmaking immediate, the movie 912 00:54:45,060 --> 00:54:49,860 about me, is not fear. I told my hard work and not making all the 913 00:54:49,860 --> 00:54:50,370 money in 914 00:54:50,370 --> 00:54:54,450 that context. None of the suggested changes that we sent 915 00:54:55,110 --> 00:54:59,970 to Participant Media. I didn't get a writer credit ended up 916 00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:03,870 Even in the final text of the film, and but there's been a big 917 00:55:03,870 --> 00:55:06,060 cashing in that has gone Oh, there 918 00:55:06,060 --> 00:55:10,470 she is real beef. Oh, everyone's making money but he's really not 919 00:55:10,470 --> 00:55:11,820 now Now let's get let's get back to 920 00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:15,870 New York about that Tupac was my piece of the actual 921 00:55:15,870 --> 00:55:19,170 Yeah, well, dude this is you know you're a martyr this is 922 00:55:19,170 --> 00:55:23,130 what this is how it is dude. And now let's talk his nipple about 923 00:55:23,130 --> 00:55:23,820 saris 924 00:55:24,270 --> 00:55:27,210 ritual organization that is he he's trying 925 00:55:27,210 --> 00:55:29,100 to get in there but the satellite delay is messenger. 926 00:55:29,100 --> 00:55:29,400 Yeah. 927 00:55:29,490 --> 00:55:31,260 And you mentioned Sarah Harrison, as you said, it's the 928 00:55:31,260 --> 00:55:32,250 ritual organization, 929 00:55:32,250 --> 00:55:36,330 DreamWorks, it's making a lot of money. Tris is intending to make 930 00:55:36,330 --> 00:55:39,510 a lot of money from this process. But none of there's no 931 00:55:39,510 --> 00:55:44,280 contribution to our defense fund to the Defense Fund of our lead 932 00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:45,360 sources. And so 933 00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:47,460 let me move on to Sarah Harrison, as you said, She's 934 00:55:47,460 --> 00:55:50,130 with Edward Snowden. We saw Edward Snowden this week receive 935 00:55:50,130 --> 00:55:52,140 an award from four American whistleblowers, 936 00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:55,260 that he's also going to throw this in his face. Hey, how's 937 00:55:55,260 --> 00:55:58,110 that award you've gotten? Oh, I'm sorry. You don't have any 938 00:55:58,110 --> 00:56:02,400 awards and listen to him. He takes the bait. You can hear him 939 00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:03,420 being spiteful, 940 00:56:03,450 --> 00:56:06,450 who travelled over to meet with him. And it was something that 941 00:56:06,450 --> 00:56:09,630 was facilitated by WikiLeaks, of course, Sarah Harrison, a Prime 942 00:56:09,630 --> 00:56:12,360 member of WikiLeaks, as well, she's been with Snowden 943 00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:15,450 throughout his time in Russia. What can you tell us about how 944 00:56:15,450 --> 00:56:16,260 Edward Snowden 945 00:56:16,440 --> 00:56:19,740 is doing so it's basically saying so your girlfriend was 946 00:56:19,740 --> 00:56:23,040 over there during the award ceremony with the with Ed 947 00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:25,620 Snowden. Hey, how do you spend a 948 00:56:25,620 --> 00:56:27,060 lot of time with Yeah, 949 00:56:27,089 --> 00:56:28,259 she's in exile with 950 00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:30,660 what you're doing with him anyway. thing 951 00:56:31,379 --> 00:56:33,359 protecting his human rights No, 952 00:56:33,390 --> 00:56:35,190 next for him and for Sarah Harrison. 953 00:56:38,490 --> 00:56:43,140 Edward Snowden is safe. We through a lot of work is in 954 00:56:43,140 --> 00:56:47,250 particularly by Sarah Harrison managed to gain asylum in 955 00:56:47,250 --> 00:56:52,560 Russia. Our attempts to gain him asylum in South America were 956 00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:56,580 thwarted in a very bizarre manner by the State Department 957 00:56:56,580 --> 00:57:00,150 by denying by canceling his passport while he was in Moscow. 958 00:57:01,140 --> 00:57:03,930 Sorry, that's bullcrap. But okay, we bumped down. 959 00:57:04,860 --> 00:57:11,550 He's safe. He's working to educate people, the journalists 960 00:57:11,550 --> 00:57:15,120 involved in these in these disclosures as to what is going 961 00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:19,350 on. He very rightly received that award from a former NSA, 962 00:57:19,350 --> 00:57:23,190 CIA, FBI and DOJ whistleblowers. 963 00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:26,100 You hear what he's doing here? He's like, Oh, yeah, no, he's 964 00:57:26,100 --> 00:57:28,740 clearly you know, yes. No, that's fine. He received that 965 00:57:28,740 --> 00:57:32,340 award from the whistleblowers. That was right on Yeah, I get 966 00:57:33,150 --> 00:57:37,620 an award. I get no money awards come out. I get nothing in my 967 00:57:37,620 --> 00:57:39,750 girlfriend, screwing with this other 968 00:57:40,470 --> 00:57:46,380 day. Tegrity. That's a serious matter. It's a threat to us 969 00:57:46,380 --> 00:57:50,190 democracy and to democracy more broadly in the west, to have a 970 00:57:50,190 --> 00:57:54,930 surveillance apparatus on every single person. That would have 971 00:57:54,930 --> 00:57:57,510 been the dream of East Germany. 972 00:57:57,540 --> 00:58:00,690 Yeah. And meanwhile, he's screwing my girlfriend. This is 973 00:58:00,690 --> 00:58:04,440 not okay. You watch it. This is this is you watch. I guarantee 974 00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:06,420 you they're about to stick it to him. 975 00:58:06,810 --> 00:58:09,870 What's there to watch? We could see coming down Broadway, but 976 00:58:09,870 --> 00:58:12,870 it's so much fun because like Sarah Harris, and she's, she's 977 00:58:12,870 --> 00:58:15,510 hot. She's a hot day, as 978 00:58:15,510 --> 00:58:20,010 are moments of she's probably a lot of fun. I bet. She looks 979 00:58:20,010 --> 00:58:20,910 like a fun girl. 980 00:58:22,890 --> 00:58:25,500 And then, ultimately, I've discovered 981 00:58:25,500 --> 00:58:27,900 Robbie has a New Zealand frame of mind. 982 00:58:30,420 --> 00:58:35,010 Neyland Bale, maybe she's into scaffolding. Who knows? Here's, 983 00:58:35,190 --> 00:58:38,130 so here's the final advice that I had to take away from this 984 00:58:38,130 --> 00:58:41,790 interview. You and I are doing it all wrong. John, the if you 985 00:58:41,790 --> 00:58:45,990 if you want to. I mean, you know, we I think I believe we 986 00:58:45,990 --> 00:58:51,300 challenge our government twice a week. At least we challenge the 987 00:58:51,300 --> 00:58:57,060 narrative, we challenge the story. We we do research, we 988 00:58:57,060 --> 00:59:01,920 really work on trying to uncover what is going on. Our problem is 989 00:59:01,920 --> 00:59:05,100 we're doing it in America. This is where we're this is where 990 00:59:05,100 --> 00:59:05,940 we're stupid. 991 00:59:08,610 --> 00:59:11,790 Well, I would leave US Embassy, you know, it's a it's a it's a 992 00:59:11,790 --> 00:59:15,930 bit of a prison in some way. But I have good people here. But 993 00:59:15,930 --> 00:59:22,470 where would I go to? I would end up in the outside world with 994 00:59:22,530 --> 00:59:23,130 fewer. 995 00:59:23,550 --> 00:59:26,130 Yeah, this is where we are on the outside world. It's very 996 00:59:26,130 --> 00:59:27,180 it's horrible here what is 997 00:59:27,210 --> 00:59:29,850 happening to the outside world. That's a much bigger 998 00:59:29,850 --> 00:59:32,790 consideration is a big consideration for me and my 999 00:59:32,790 --> 00:59:35,670 staff and the 12 different legal actions we have going in 1000 00:59:35,670 --> 00:59:38,580 different different countries. But it's a consideration for 1001 00:59:38,580 --> 00:59:42,930 everyone. What type of place is Western democracy going to be? 1002 00:59:43,230 --> 00:59:47,220 Is it going to be a place that with a collapsing rule of law? 1003 00:59:47,220 --> 00:59:53,610 Oh, yeah. Mess isolations all the crap. Where I 1004 00:59:53,610 --> 00:59:55,170 can't find her. Where's that siren is coming 1005 00:59:55,170 --> 00:59:57,990 from? It's outside his cabin where he's suffering from cabin 1006 00:59:57,990 --> 00:59:58,740 fever. Cool. 1007 00:59:58,980 --> 01:00:01,740 Does that sound like a Brit? siren Do you? Yes, yes, it does. 1008 01:00:01,770 --> 01:00:02,160 It does 1009 01:00:02,460 --> 01:00:06,390 have a totalitarian regime. We don't yet have a totalitarian 1010 01:00:06,390 --> 01:00:10,110 regime but we have getting pretty close and impractical. Is 1011 01:00:10,110 --> 01:00:11,790 it going to cross over into something else? 1012 01:00:11,820 --> 01:00:16,200 Now let's hear about the people who really know how to to blow 1013 01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:18,690 things open. It's not us because we're in America would 1014 01:00:18,690 --> 01:00:21,840 be a hard place for investigative organization like 1015 01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:26,520 WikiLeaks to work in. It is a hard place for Glenn Greenwald. 1016 01:00:26,580 --> 01:00:28,920 He's now an effective exile in Brazil. 1017 01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:33,990 Effective exile in Britain.

No agenda. 1094 01:05:07,650 --> 01:05:09,420 No idea what it means, but 1095 01:05:09,450 --> 01:05:14,040 I asked him what it meant. Okay? He refused to respond. 1096 01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:17,940 He just didn't respond at all or he said, I'm responding but I'm 1097 01:05:17,940 --> 01:05:18,870 not telling you. 1098 01:05:19,230 --> 01:05:25,770 No response whatsoever. Hmm. Well, I'll do it again, just 1099 01:05:25,770 --> 01:05:28,800 because I liked the short notes. Let's 1100 01:05:28,800 --> 01:05:31,920 split. Let's split it up. You do the three sections.

Well, I'm 1104 01:05:45,510 --> 01:05:47,820 in Falcon and the snowman now all of a sudden. 1105 01:05:49,590 --> 01:05:52,530 All right. Do you have the beginning of this note from VP 1106 01:05:52,530 --> 01:05:57,420 live? vape. Team 333 for the Massachusetts I got his word 1107 01:05:57,420 --> 01:05:59,700 starts off podcast in 2001. 1108 01:06:01,740 --> 01:06:06,210 Oh no, I have. This is from our vaping producer, the VP live 1109 01:06:06,210 --> 01:06:11,640 vape team. Which you can find at Vape team.com. I heard you guys 1110 01:06:11,640 --> 01:06:15,090 talking about vaping on episode 556. I've been vaping for four 1111 01:06:15,090 --> 01:06:17,580 years since the first products hit the market. I went from one 1112 01:06:17,580 --> 01:06:20,970 and a half packs per day to just vaping in around a week. I 1113 01:06:20,970 --> 01:06:23,910 haven't had a cigarette since I started vaping. We had seen 1114 01:06:23,910 --> 01:06:26,460 1000s of people quit smoking dramatically reduced the amount 1115 01:06:26,460 --> 01:06:29,820 of cigarettes they consume. I love how the product has helped 1116 01:06:29,820 --> 01:06:33,210 me and my family so much that I decided to start the podcast in 1117 01:06:33,210 --> 01:06:38,340 2011. The vaping podcast. We don't take money from the 1118 01:06:38,340 --> 01:06:39,090 industry and it 1119 01:06:39,090 --> 01:06:44,100 was show is this. Hey, this vaping is great. What about you 1120 01:06:44,100 --> 01:06:45,330 Bill? What do you think? 1121 01:06:49,350 --> 01:06:51,240 We don't take money from the industry but do take free 1122 01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:54,360 products as giveaways we fund the show out of our own pocket 1123 01:06:54,360 --> 01:06:57,120 YouTube ads and with the occasional donation the FDA is 1124 01:06:57,120 --> 01:06:59,910 about to regulate these products. Now. I will say I've 1125 01:06:59,910 --> 01:07:03,300 received several vaping emails but this is the executive 1126 01:07:03,300 --> 01:07:05,430 producer. So we're going to read this standalone we can talk 1127 01:07:05,430 --> 01:07:09,030 about the vaping later if we get to it. So the FDA is about to 1128 01:07:09,030 --> 01:07:11,160 regulate these products that has been in progress for several 1129 01:07:11,160 --> 01:07:14,820 years since the FDA declared them tobacco products in 2009. 1130 01:07:15,240 --> 01:07:17,280 The regulation is supposed to drop this month but the 1131 01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:20,490 government shutdown might delay it well. Good luck there. Ever 1132 01:07:20,490 --> 01:07:25,290 since the A NTZ Anti nicotine tobacco zealots found them on 1133 01:07:25,290 --> 01:07:31,320 their radar. You find that repressive I'm sorry. repressive 1134 01:07:31,440 --> 01:07:34,530 representatives from stress is a thing. Representatives from 1135 01:07:34,530 --> 01:07:36,690 groups like American Cancer Society American Lung 1136 01:07:36,690 --> 01:07:39,960 Association in the Campaign for Tobacco Free Kids are against 1137 01:07:39,960 --> 01:07:42,870 these devices, even though they clearly have many healthy 1138 01:07:42,870 --> 01:07:45,750 benefits and actually help people reduce quit smoking. No 1139 01:07:45,750 --> 01:07:49,830 matter what Adam thinks he's wrong. He's wrong. What does 1140 01:07:49,830 --> 01:07:53,100 Adam know? The truth is that nicotine and tobacco are two 1141 01:07:53,100 --> 01:07:55,680 different things. Nicotine has similar health risks as common 1142 01:07:55,680 --> 01:07:58,800 stimulants such as caffeine Yeah, true. The problem with 1143 01:07:58,800 --> 01:08:01,350 nicotine currently is the delivery method burning tobacco 1144 01:08:01,350 --> 01:08:03,540 releases 1000s of other chemicals which are known to 1145 01:08:03,540 --> 01:08:06,300 have significant health risks. Vaping produces no secondhand 1146 01:08:06,300 --> 01:08:10,920 smoke and no toxic byproducts. Then he goes on to say that the 1147 01:08:10,920 --> 01:08:13,020 pharmaceutical industry is against vaping since their 1148 01:08:13,020 --> 01:08:15,540 current nicotine replacement therapy, drugs, patches, gum, 1149 01:08:15,540 --> 01:08:19,740 Chantix, etc, are highly ineffective. And they can't sell 1150 01:08:19,740 --> 01:08:22,620 electronic cigarettes as drugs since they are tobacco products. 1151 01:08:22,620 --> 01:08:25,680 Also drugs like Chantix, which have insane side effects. Yes, 1152 01:08:25,680 --> 01:08:31,380 we know our big profit centers. So he winds up by saying I've 1153 01:08:31,470 --> 01:08:33,660 been an advocate for vaping around the country to industry 1154 01:08:33,660 --> 01:08:37,230 that is exploding, and helping people continue using nicotine 1155 01:08:37,230 --> 01:08:40,020 in a much safer fashion. If you have any questions, please let 1156 01:08:40,020 --> 01:08:40,320 me know. 1157 01:08:41,130 --> 01:08:45,270 I believe he's the one who sent the email which accused Pfizer 1158 01:08:46,110 --> 01:08:48,480 of being behind if I'm not mistaken. 1159 01:08:49,019 --> 01:08:52,679 We got the it's all in the show notes by the way. Yes, that 1160 01:08:52,679 --> 01:09:00,449 Pfizer gave two almost $3 million to let's see, in total 1161 01:09:00,449 --> 01:09:03,599 that is to the American Academy of Pediatrics, American Cancer 1162 01:09:03,599 --> 01:09:05,699 Society, American Heart Association, American Lung 1163 01:09:05,699 --> 01:09:09,059 Association Campaign for Tobacco Free Kids, American Medical 1164 01:09:09,059 --> 01:09:12,029 Association, American Legacy Foundation Action on Smoking and 1165 01:09:12,029 --> 01:09:19,979 Health. Total of $2,757,000.03 $757,300 and that 1166 01:09:19,979 --> 01:09:24,569 was Pfizer of course who don't they make the Chantix? Yeah, I 1167 01:09:24,569 --> 01:09:28,529 think they do. And other products and so that of course 1168 01:09:28,529 --> 01:09:32,549 that's how it works. And in fact, I think that as much as I 1169 01:09:32,549 --> 01:09:35,459 hate to do it, I think John you and I should get on the anti 1170 01:09:35,459 --> 01:09:38,999 vaping train.

I 1246 01:14:53,820 --> 01:14:56,190 really only had to get the soup you know, so I'm kind of walking 1247 01:14:56,190 --> 01:14:59,970 around looking at other things. I just can't afford it. She did. 1248 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:04,350 Blaze cheese. Cheese blocks with cranberry for $18 I shoot 1249 01:15:04,350 --> 01:15:10,680 kidding me anyway, and I'm looking all the women there. So, 1250 01:15:11,040 --> 01:15:14,160 first of all the dudes are hipster. They got that douchebag 1251 01:15:14,160 --> 01:15:17,550 hat on. You know the one I'm talking about. Pork Pie and pork 1252 01:15:17,550 --> 01:15:19,020 pie. What is the pork pie? 1253 01:15:19,350 --> 01:15:21,780 There's a pork pie hat they like to wear was that Yeah, yeah. 1254 01:15:21,780 --> 01:15:24,000 Also app from Burberry.

And 1258 01:15:34,440 --> 01:15:35,760 then, but the women, 1259 01:15:36,390 --> 01:15:39,000 that's most of them, and some of them do, but most of them don't 1260 01:15:39,000 --> 01:15:40,770 do that. And the reason they don't have money is because they 1261 01:15:40,770 --> 01:15:42,270 go to Whole Foods. Yeah. 1262 01:15:42,600 --> 01:15:44,460 Well then there's this then the women 1263 01:15:45,360 --> 01:15:48,960 unit by the way, by the way, you never see these these hipsters 1264 01:15:48,990 --> 01:15:50,400 at the farmers market. 1265 01:15:50,790 --> 01:15:54,360 Never.

We sure do. In fact, let's 1340 01:20:35,010 --> 01:20:39,330 set it up. Australian news. Tough new laws to tackle 1341 01:20:39,330 --> 01:20:40,650 motorcycle gangs will 1342 01:20:40,650 --> 01:20:43,590 go before Parliament's in the Australian state of Queensland 1343 01:20:43,590 --> 01:20:46,830 today, the move is part of a crackdown taking place in 1344 01:20:46,830 --> 01:20:49,860 several states against biker gangs. In recent months, there 1345 01:20:49,860 --> 01:20:53,790 have been several cases of gang related violence. So for more on 1346 01:20:53,790 --> 01:20:56,370 this issue, let's speak now to my colleague, John Donaldson, 1347 01:20:56,370 --> 01:20:58,890 who joins us from Sydney. Good to see you, John. Now, this 1348 01:20:58,890 --> 01:21:02,790 is a fine piece of slave training legislation, which was 1349 01:21:02,790 --> 01:21:06,840 brought to my attention via this BBC report, which I'll play the 1350 01:21:06,840 --> 01:21:10,410 rest of in a moment. Also, producer Alex Down Under in 1351 01:21:10,410 --> 01:21:14,220 Queensland, sent me the legislation and he actually did 1352 01:21:14,580 --> 01:21:18,720 the hello when this happens. Now we have our producers, sending 1353 01:21:18,720 --> 01:21:22,500 in PDFs pre marked up for your convenience that are that hit 1354 01:21:22,500 --> 01:21:26,790 the show notes. This. This will be an ask John, when this is 1355 01:21:26,790 --> 01:21:30,720 done. What do you think this legislation is really about? 1356 01:21:30,780 --> 01:21:35,940 Tell us first of all, how powerful are these guys? Well, 1357 01:21:35,940 --> 01:21:36,930 they're pretty powerful. And 1358 01:21:36,930 --> 01:21:39,930 of course the police say they have connections to drug dealing 1359 01:21:39,930 --> 01:21:43,830 organized crime. There's a lot of inter gang violence not just 1360 01:21:43,830 --> 01:21:47,220 in Queensland, but in states across Australia. It's estimated 1361 01:21:47,220 --> 01:21:52,470 they're around 3500 members of the so called outlaw biker gang 1362 01:21:52,470 --> 01:21:56,490 such as the Hells Angels 35 different gangs across the 1363 01:21:56,490 --> 01:22:00,180 country. And Queensland is just the latest state really to sort 1364 01:22:00,180 --> 01:22:03,540 of say it's hard enough these laws that they're trying to get 1365 01:22:03,540 --> 01:22:06,870 through parliament. The State Parliament this week, being 1366 01:22:06,870 --> 01:22:10,800 billed as the toughest Australia has ever seen. Large rewards 1367 01:22:10,800 --> 01:22:14,940 being offered for information leading to gang activities. The 1368 01:22:14,940 --> 01:22:19,170 bikes of any gang member who is convicted will be crushed and 1369 01:22:19,170 --> 01:22:22,680 turned into scrap metal restrictions on gang members 1370 01:22:22,860 --> 01:22:26,250 wearing their colors or their their leathers in public 1371 01:22:26,250 --> 01:22:28,560 letters, the letters there's their letter 1372 01:22:28,590 --> 01:22:31,920 writing in large groups and even one saying it no gang member 1373 01:22:32,280 --> 01:22:36,870 will be allowed to own a tattoo parlor. It was a bit of a 1374 01:22:36,870 --> 01:22:37,740 background to this. 1375 01:22:38,009 --> 01:22:41,249 When I heard that when I heard the leathers and tattoo parlor. 1376 01:22:41,249 --> 01:22:44,519 I'm like this is a bullshit thing. Something is going on 1377 01:22:44,519 --> 01:22:46,799 with this that specific incidents that have triggered 1378 01:22:46,799 --> 01:22:51,209 this. Yes. Is there is a motorcycle gangs rampant 1379 01:22:51,209 --> 01:22:54,479 throughout Australia. Are they just raping women and pillaging 1380 01:22:54,479 --> 01:22:57,539 villages and chopping children's heads off, sir, 1381 01:22:57,540 --> 01:23:00,360 just interest to this legislation to to crack down on 1382 01:23:00,360 --> 01:23:00,870 the gaps? 1383 01:23:02,910 --> 01:23:05,700 Well, this is a long running problem, I think. 1384 01:23:06,750 --> 01:23:09,750 Oh, well, you surprise me with that question. 1980s There have 1385 01:23:09,750 --> 01:23:14,460 been 100 since the 1980s people killed in gang related murders 1386 01:23:14,460 --> 01:23:17,910 and more than 1000 shootings we've had. Let me get this 1387 01:23:17,910 --> 01:23:22,980 right. In 30 years 100 people have been killed by gangs. Oh, 1388 01:23:23,010 --> 01:23:25,200 wow. Gee, what is statistics 1389 01:23:25,230 --> 01:23:31,950 a spate of violence mostly into gang violence rivals, drive by 1390 01:23:31,950 --> 01:23:34,920 shootings, that sorts of things in recent months, not only in 1391 01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:38,550 Queensland, but also in the state of Victoria. Last week, we 1392 01:23:38,550 --> 01:23:42,570 had police in Victoria carrying out raids on more than 60 1393 01:23:42,570 --> 01:23:46,650 different properties linked to the Hells Angels gang. And there 1394 01:23:46,650 --> 01:23:51,060 they seized a large amounts of guns, weapons, some sort of 1395 01:23:51,060 --> 01:23:53,190 military style weapons and 1396 01:23:53,190 --> 01:23:55,320 Alright, so this just goes on into bull crap. What do you 1397 01:23:55,320 --> 01:23:58,800 think this is really about? What do you suspect is in this anti 1398 01:23:58,800 --> 01:24:01,470 motorcycle gang legislation, John? 1399 01:24:02,220 --> 01:24:04,350 Well, there's a number of possibilities. And by the way, I 1400 01:24:04,350 --> 01:24:07,380 think it's rather peculiar that they crushed the motorcycles 1401 01:24:07,380 --> 01:24:09,570 instead of putting them on the market and selling and making 1402 01:24:09,570 --> 01:24:10,470 some money for the state. 1403 01:24:10,500 --> 01:24:15,300 This is no this is. This is part of the meme to really help you 1404 01:24:15,300 --> 01:24:19,890 associate this legislation with it with motorcycle gangs 1405 01:24:19,890 --> 01:24:21,000 specifically. 1406 01:24:23,040 --> 01:24:24,450 Big Pharma. No, 1407 01:24:24,900 --> 01:24:29,730 no. So this is the VR helmet laws. It's better than that. 1408 01:24:30,060 --> 01:24:33,390 Okay, this is slave training. 101. I have I have the document 1409 01:24:33,390 --> 01:24:36,450 in front of me, I will just highlight a few things, even 1410 01:24:36,450 --> 01:24:39,120 though that our producer Alex has highlighted a lot. This 1411 01:24:39,120 --> 01:24:43,200 really is the vicious lawless Association disestablishment 1412 01:24:43,200 --> 01:24:48,630 bill for 2013. This is not about motorcycle gangs, no, this is 1413 01:24:48,630 --> 01:24:56,130 about any group, or association defined as follows.

Now this 1457 01:28:00,690 --> 01:28:04,080 isn't this Queensland isn't Queensland, Queensland. Isn't 1458 01:28:04,080 --> 01:28:04,950 that in Victoria? 1459 01:28:05,910 --> 01:28:08,190 No, Victoria, I think is a separate province, Queensland. 1460 01:28:08,190 --> 01:28:09,210 Yes, Victoria. Yes, 1461 01:28:09,240 --> 01:28:14,400 this is Queensland I'm sorry, shows you what I know. This is 1462 01:28:14,430 --> 01:28:18,750 this is very disturbing. And the way it's being sold to the 1463 01:28:18,750 --> 01:28:23,100 public is a you know, this is this is almost like the EU 1464 01:28:23,220 --> 01:28:27,180 protocols on human rights. Unless you know you have the 1465 01:28:27,180 --> 01:28:29,910 flu, and then we can arrest you and throw you in jail or any 1466 01:28:29,910 --> 01:28:34,650 other communicable disease. You know, you can't be shot dead by 1467 01:28:34,650 --> 01:28:36,870 a police officer unless you're running away from the police 1468 01:28:36,870 --> 01:28:40,890 officer because clearly you know, then you're dangerous. And 1469 01:28:40,890 --> 01:28:44,010 so now if you were afraid and you're in a group of three, 1470 01:28:44,730 --> 01:28:47,910 which could easily be don't wear you know, agenda T shirts 1471 01:28:47,910 --> 01:28:52,950 together. If there's three of you, if someone has to wear the 1472 01:28:52,950 --> 01:28:57,720 twit t shirt to come can wear the no agenda shirt and someone 1473 01:28:57,720 --> 01:29:05,070 has to wear something different. So for as much as we are always 1474 01:29:05,070 --> 01:29:08,010 looking at Australia and saying wow, those guys got it together. 1475 01:29:08,070 --> 01:29:12,120 This sucks.

Did he drop out? 1483 01:29:45,390 --> 01:29:46,380 Paranoid now. 1484 01:29:46,410 --> 01:29:51,960 Hey to what I found interesting is the news of Glenn Greenwald. 1485 01:29:52,530 --> 01:30:00,240 And Jeremy Scahill. Grant Grunwald leaving the guy Already 1486 01:30:00,240 --> 01:30:05,550 in to start up his own organization backed by this the 1487 01:30:05,580 --> 01:30:10,800 one of the guys from was it eBay or PayPal eBay wasn't? What's 1488 01:30:10,800 --> 01:30:11,220 his name? 1489 01:30:13,080 --> 01:30:15,960 I don't know anything about this KIDDING ME Pierre on 1490 01:30:16,800 --> 01:30:19,140 on the dark. Oh my god, yeah, you don't get 1491 01:30:19,200 --> 01:30:22,290 started but the guy is a total flake he has started a number of 1492 01:30:22,290 --> 01:30:25,650 publications. And then out of the blue, as far as I can tell, 1493 01:30:25,860 --> 01:30:29,040 he gets bored and then just pulls the funding. Well, so 1494 01:30:29,040 --> 01:30:31,860 these guys are going to be left hanging. Oh, no, this is gonna 1495 01:30:31,860 --> 01:30:33,840 be swinging in the wind. You hadn't heard about 1496 01:30:33,840 --> 01:30:37,110 this. Now? Oh, my God. Oh, this is this is 1497 01:30:37,260 --> 01:30:40,770 i Okay. Major point. I didn't hear about it. Okay, so the 1498 01:30:40,800 --> 01:30:45,180 so here's the deal. Glenn Greenwald, has announced his 1499 01:30:45,180 --> 01:30:48,240 departure from the guardian. He's going to start up a new 1500 01:30:48,780 --> 01:30:51,240 online only news venture. 1501 01:30:51,270 --> 01:30:55,650 So wait a minute, stop. So let me get this straight. He's with 1502 01:30:55,650 --> 01:30:59,520 salon, a huge money losing operation, which is exactly what 1503 01:30:59,520 --> 01:31:03,270 you're describing, goes to the Guardian makes a reputation for 1504 01:31:03,270 --> 01:31:08,820 himself. He's probably got carte blanche. And he says that screw 1505 01:31:08,820 --> 01:31:12,480 this, I'm gonna go back to this to a similar situation that just 1506 01:31:12,480 --> 01:31:16,980 loses money. And I'm going to right now I'm going to be losing 1507 01:31:16,980 --> 01:31:19,800 the money. But I'll be losing on the on behalf of Peter. 1508 01:31:20,370 --> 01:31:28,020 It's Pierre. Pierre Peter. Well, yeah, so what's there's a couple 1509 01:31:28,020 --> 01:31:31,710 of things interesting about it. One is this. Pierre actually 1510 01:31:31,800 --> 01:31:36,900 wrote about this, and he did a couple interviews. And he says, 1511 01:31:36,900 --> 01:31:37,650 Well, you know, give 1512 01:31:37,650 --> 01:31:40,020 me $250 million. 1513 01:31:40,650 --> 01:31:44,490 This is not okay. Let me give you what he actually said. He 1514 01:31:44,490 --> 01:31:50,220 said that he was offered the Washington Post, as well as the 1515 01:31:50,250 --> 01:31:55,380 eBay boy, the Amazon boy, what's his name Bezos. And he also I 1516 01:31:55,380 --> 01:31:58,050 don't know if he looked first or whatever. But so apparently, he 1517 01:31:58,050 --> 01:32:00,780 was like, Well, this is great. They want to win $50 million. 1518 01:32:01,620 --> 01:32:07,260 But now I think I'm gonna go do something else. And he has had a 1519 01:32:07,260 --> 01:32:11,220 Civil Beat the Honolulu Civil Beat running for a couple of 1520 01:32:11,220 --> 01:32:12,450 years, which is a 1521 01:32:13,110 --> 01:32:15,390 Oh, that's a runaway breakout hit. 1522 01:32:15,690 --> 01:32:19,170 That is a and he's actively involved with that. So he is 1523 01:32:19,170 --> 01:32:24,120 kind of, I guess, enjoying being a news, a news guy. So even 1524 01:32:24,120 --> 01:32:26,880 though he has not said he's dedicated the presses, even 1525 01:32:26,880 --> 01:32:30,120 though he has not said he is dedicating $250 million. He 1526 01:32:30,120 --> 01:32:35,790 says, Well, I didn't spend 250 million on the post so that you 1527 01:32:35,790 --> 01:32:38,490 could see that as my possible inlay. He has not committed 1528 01:32:38,490 --> 01:32:38,970 that. 1529 01:32:39,150 --> 01:32:41,850 Well, we're at The Guardian. I'm reading from The Guardian. If 1530 01:32:41,850 --> 01:32:45,390 you think there's only sour grapes in The Guardian, in an 1531 01:32:45,390 --> 01:32:49,740 interview me, blah, blah, blah. Omidyar said he was committing 1532 01:32:49,800 --> 01:32:55,500 an initial 50 mil. Okay, that's yet unnamed venture. 1533 01:32:55,530 --> 01:32:59,190 That's not what he's he's quoted as saying in a quoted interview, 1534 01:32:59,190 --> 01:33:05,250 but that's okay. For me, what I found interesting was exactly 1535 01:33:05,250 --> 01:33:09,780 what you highlight is, salon is essentially a publication that 1536 01:33:09,780 --> 01:33:14,490 cost $3 million a year run by sugar daddy, sugar daddy, who is 1537 01:33:14,490 --> 01:33:18,690 the chairman of Adobe, whose daughter happens to be the 1538 01:33:18,690 --> 01:33:22,980 president of salon or CEO may be I can't remember which one it 1539 01:33:22,980 --> 01:33:25,920 is. But you know, so, you know, they they, essentially they 1540 01:33:25,920 --> 01:33:28,800 bring in a million dollars in advertising, it costs him 4 1541 01:33:28,800 --> 01:33:34,140 million to run the outfit. So he puts in three. And Greenwald 1542 01:33:34,140 --> 01:33:36,870 left that. And you're right. He built up a reputation, a 1543 01:33:36,870 --> 01:33:41,460 reputation, which I'll I'll add is built with in a collaborative 1544 01:33:41,460 --> 01:33:47,340 effort, I think, with editors, and you know, some staff. And 1545 01:33:47,370 --> 01:33:52,260 now he has all this stuff. I guess he has a trove. And he's 1546 01:33:52,260 --> 01:33:56,640 going to build I don't know if he's going to build it or the 1547 01:33:56,640 --> 01:34:01,710 way Pierre says it he says that Poydras and Scahill and I guess 1548 01:34:01,710 --> 01:34:03,210 a whole bunch of other people from the 1549 01:34:03,330 --> 01:34:08,280 one just hired the staff from Democracy Now. Right. Exactly. 1550 01:34:08,490 --> 01:34:11,700 It sounds to me as though what he's doing is he's rare America 1551 01:34:11,730 --> 01:34:14,640 is what I'm thinking. Well, I don't think it nothing could be 1552 01:34:14,640 --> 01:34:19,320 that bad. Democracy Now. Lisa's hung in there democracy now and 1553 01:34:19,320 --> 01:34:23,130 the stuff that you get on the on Pacifica, radio, your KPFA. And 1554 01:34:23,130 --> 01:34:26,160 these guys, were, you know, they have to devote at least an hour 1555 01:34:26,160 --> 01:34:31,110 a day to Navajo poetry. So, hey, 1556 01:34:31,110 --> 01:34:33,720 I resent that. Yeah. 1557 01:34:34,080 --> 01:34:36,930 The funny thing is about the Navajo poetry they actually read 1558 01:34:36,930 --> 01:34:39,480 it in Navajo. I mean, it's just like cheese. Can you find 1559 01:34:39,480 --> 01:34:43,110 something more entertaining than this? Even the Navajo is don't 1560 01:34:43,110 --> 01:34:50,550 like it. So right. So he's going to 250 By the way as a lot 1561 01:34:50,550 --> 01:34:54,870 because you don't need a lot of money. Yeah, internet era. Your 1562 01:34:54,900 --> 01:35:00,000 need for this kind of overhead is 250 is buying the wall. 1563 01:35:00,000 --> 01:35:04,650 Washington Post where you have a plant this that online. I mean, 1564 01:35:04,650 --> 01:35:07,800 if you can't do a publication with Glenn Greenwald and all 1565 01:35:07,800 --> 01:35:11,040 these people for five mil, you know, kind of the budget that 1566 01:35:11,040 --> 01:35:13,530 salon has, yeah, I don't know what you're thinking. 1567 01:35:14,100 --> 01:35:17,580 I'm thinking a lot of people are gonna be like, hey, Glenn, 1568 01:35:17,610 --> 01:35:22,710 you've always thought you were great. It me a job get me a job. 1569 01:35:23,520 --> 01:35:26,130 I just don't understand, you know, for a guy who is 1570 01:35:26,130 --> 01:35:29,700 everything is important about at the end of the day, turns out 1571 01:35:29,700 --> 01:35:33,480 for him, it's not I think the Guardian was certainly letting 1572 01:35:33,510 --> 01:35:36,360 giving him free rein on publishing. I don't think he was 1573 01:35:36,780 --> 01:35:39,840 curtailed in any way. I think he's able to do his side 1574 01:35:39,840 --> 01:35:43,650 projects. So it is ultimately for just like everyone else, 1575 01:35:43,680 --> 01:35:46,020 it's for the money. I guess I can't, 1576 01:35:46,320 --> 01:35:49,110 if you really wanted to do it, right, he would have done a book 1577 01:35:49,740 --> 01:35:51,750 a while he made that may be a part of the deal. 1578 01:35:52,110 --> 01:35:55,380 Well, maybe maybe they helped them do that. And it's in the 1579 01:35:55,380 --> 01:35:56,580 book should be out by now, by the 1580 01:35:56,580 --> 01:36:02,580 way. Yeah. And it's also very possible, the way Pierre says it 1581 01:36:02,580 --> 01:36:07,770 himself as part of my analysis from his own blog, as part of my 1582 01:36:07,770 --> 01:36:13,500 learning process. He's rich guys. And I think he is actually 1583 01:36:13,500 --> 01:36:18,930 the guy who wrote the first eBay code. So I think, you know, this 1584 01:36:18,930 --> 01:36:22,260 is kind of a success story, you know, of just kind of a nerdy 1585 01:36:22,260 --> 01:36:26,910 guy wrote a wrote some code for an auction site. And really, now 1586 01:36:26,910 --> 01:36:30,720 he's available. As part of my learning process. This is listen 1587 01:36:30,720 --> 01:36:33,600 to F. Williams, if you get a chance. You know, these guys who 1588 01:36:33,600 --> 01:36:37,410 like wrote some code and we're head yeah.

I 1590 01:36:40,980 --> 01:36:43,890 recently reached out to Glenn Greenwald to find out what 1591 01:36:43,890 --> 01:36:48,570 journalists like him need to do their jobs. Well, as it turns 1592 01:36:48,570 --> 01:36:51,870 out, he and his colleagues, Laura Poitras, and Jeremy 1593 01:36:51,870 --> 01:36:56,400 Scahill are already on a path to create an online space to 1594 01:36:56,400 --> 01:37:01,170 support independent journalists. We had a lot of overlap in terms 1595 01:37:01,170 --> 01:37:07,740 of our ideas, and decided to join forces. Oh, my second you 1596 01:37:07,740 --> 01:37:12,390 okay. I do that.

Oh, I'm just I'm just 1605 01:37:31,410 --> 01:37:33,870 ready to run in there and see like the bed and flames were 1606 01:37:33,870 --> 01:37:35,280 their legs on fire. 1607 01:37:36,990 --> 01:37:39,180 Oh, you mean because the spontaneous human combustion? 1608 01:37:39,180 --> 01:37:42,960 Yes.

And I thought it 1612 01:37:54,750 --> 01:37:57,960 always started in the legs. No, no, no, no, the legs of the last 1613 01:37:57,960 --> 01:37:58,620 thing they light up. 1614 01:37:58,980 --> 01:38:00,720 What do I know?

This is where every time they've 1653 01:40:30,510 --> 01:40:33,060 done this by the way the only guys who operate well it was 1654 01:40:33,060 --> 01:40:36,480 operate on a shoestring. If you have all this money, I guarantee 1655 01:40:36,480 --> 01:40:39,750 the single B A dog they're gonna hire a bunch of guys or aren't 1656 01:40:39,750 --> 01:40:42,240 going to do any work because they got the money coming in and 1657 01:40:42,240 --> 01:40:44,160 they don't have to worry about making money so they're not 1658 01:40:44,160 --> 01:40:47,940 going to be lean and hungry is going to be a piece of crap. I 1659 01:40:47,940 --> 01:40:53,250 mean, I can guarantee it. Portfolio did it when Conde Nast 1660 01:40:53,250 --> 01:40:55,980 rolled it out, you can see right away that it wasn't going to 1661 01:40:55,980 --> 01:40:59,160 succeed because it just had too much money they were just coming 1662 01:40:59,160 --> 01:41:01,230 out of their ears are overpaying everybody. 1663 01:41:02,130 --> 01:41:07,020 I'm thinking that the whole concept of a network of anything 1664 01:41:07,440 --> 01:41:11,700 is just inappropriate in today's age. I don't see the necessity 1665 01:41:11,700 --> 01:41:16,320 for Glenn Greenwald to need to be part of a network I mean, if 1666 01:41:16,380 --> 01:41:19,620 if Greenwald the way he would the stuff he's doing if he just 1667 01:41:19,620 --> 01:41:24,600 said paid support me and my sources, the guy would make a 1668 01:41:24,600 --> 01:41:25,410 million bucks. 1669 01:41:25,500 --> 01:41:27,000 Well, that's what Solomon did. 1670 01:41:28,650 --> 01:41:29,850 Solomon 1671 01:41:29,880 --> 01:41:32,730 Solomon, what's his first name?

These are all subscriptions and they're all 25 bucks 1697 01:42:53,940 --> 01:42:55,860 subscriptions or something like that.

And so but 1761 01:46:36,720 --> 01:46:39,420 just play this and that, and there's a little irksome aspect 1762 01:46:39,420 --> 01:46:39,900 to this 1763 01:46:39,930 --> 01:46:43,320 center, and our friends from Wells Fargo are here, and 1764 01:46:43,320 --> 01:46:47,520 they're helping you at home, determine what is a good time 1765 01:46:47,520 --> 01:46:51,300 for your children to start saving. And I'm here with Luis 1766 01:46:51,300 --> 01:46:53,970 Dominguez, so we wanted to ask you that question. You know, a 1767 01:46:53,970 --> 01:46:56,190 lot of a lot of you are out there thinking you could call us 1768 01:46:56,190 --> 01:46:59,190 here, the phones aren't ringing. So if you want free information, 1769 01:46:59,280 --> 01:47:02,070 call the number on the bottom of your screen. But Luis, tell us 1770 01:47:02,250 --> 01:47:06,270 when is a good time for children to start saving? What should you 1771 01:47:06,270 --> 01:47:06,960 tell parents 1772 01:47:07,290 --> 01:47:09,930 they want? Ideally, I would say as soon as the child is born is 1773 01:47:09,930 --> 01:47:12,510 the best time because just like with anything, the longer that 1774 01:47:12,510 --> 01:47:16,290 you can save, the better it is. However, I would say the best 1775 01:47:16,290 --> 01:47:18,990 time is right now. There's no reason to wait. And it doesn't 1776 01:47:18,990 --> 01:47:21,870 matter how old the kids are, right now, it'd be the best time 1777 01:47:21,900 --> 01:47:24,450 because if you haven't already started saving, then the longer 1778 01:47:24,450 --> 01:47:26,970 you wait, the later it becomes. So as soon as you can start, 1779 01:47:27,000 --> 01:47:27,840 that's the best time. 1780 01:47:28,170 --> 01:47:32,280 Okay, so Okay, when they're born, what do they understand 1781 01:47:32,280 --> 01:47:34,620 when they're born? I mean, what would you tell parents? What do 1782 01:47:34,620 --> 01:47:37,710 you do when you have a child eat them 1783 01:47:37,920 --> 01:47:38,760 out? That's a great question. 1784 01:47:39,660 --> 01:47:40,770 Great question. 1785 01:47:48,390 --> 01:47:49,770 Short is not a great question. 1786 01:47:50,220 --> 01:47:51,990 It's an idiotic question. 1787 01:47:52,470 --> 01:47:54,480 What do you do as soon as they're born? 1788 01:47:55,170 --> 01:47:58,320 The kid he goes on, he says the kids can't really they don't 1789 01:47:58,320 --> 01:48:01,230 understand saving. So what should you do it and the guy 1790 01:48:01,230 --> 01:48:04,500 says, this is a great question is not a great question. I don't 1791 01:48:04,500 --> 01:48:06,570 get these people with. That's a great question. 1792 01:48:09,210 --> 01:48:11,880 Board. I mean, what would you tell parents? What do you do 1793 01:48:11,910 --> 01:48:14,010 when you have a child? Yeah, that's 1794 01:48:14,010 --> 01:48:15,090 a great question. And 1795 01:48:17,250 --> 01:48:19,410 how's that? A great question. I'm asking you. 1796 01:48:19,650 --> 01:48:22,470 It's not a great question. It's just not it's the only reason 1797 01:48:22,470 --> 01:48:26,250 it's a great question is because it put the the guy from the bank 1798 01:48:26,250 --> 01:48:30,060 in the in the in frame for another three seconds for the 1799 01:48:30,060 --> 01:48:34,740 commercial. isn't, you know, this, I'm seeing a lot of this, 1800 01:48:34,740 --> 01:48:39,360 I'm seeing a lot of the bank making it hard for you to have 1801 01:48:39,360 --> 01:48:45,060 your money. Chase is doing something where if you deposit 1802 01:48:45,060 --> 01:48:50,010 more than $50,000 in cash in a week, if you have a cash cash 1803 01:48:50,010 --> 01:48:55,380 business, like a restaurant, then you that's not allowed 1804 01:48:55,380 --> 01:49:00,420 unless you are upgraded to a new type of business account, which 1805 01:49:00,420 --> 01:49:03,870 of course, you know, then gives you the right to do 100,000. 1806 01:49:03,870 --> 01:49:06,930 It's like they're just coming up with ways to restrict what you 1807 01:49:06,930 --> 01:49:09,300 can do with your money. And when your money's in the bank. I 1808 01:49:09,300 --> 01:49:12,930 mean, what is this great percentage rate we get one that 1809 01:49:12,930 --> 01:49:17,310 tells us that much even that much. Yeah. And I saw the I keep 1810 01:49:17,310 --> 01:49:22,080 getting offers from from Chase for the Sapphire card. Have you 1811 01:49:22,080 --> 01:49:28,200 seen this? No. Oh my god. So put in $50,000 into a savings 1812 01:49:28,200 --> 01:49:31,650 account. Okay, I don't have that. But alright, let's presume 1813 01:49:31,650 --> 01:49:35,130 I had $50,000. And I put it into a chase savings account. I will 1814 01:49:35,130 --> 01:49:39,570 get the Sapphire card which is a credit card made of metal. 1815 01:49:40,770 --> 01:49:44,460 And I like that that's which is a take off on the AMEX black, 1816 01:49:44,460 --> 01:49:48,690 black correct. And I'm seeing people and then 1817 01:49:49,020 --> 01:49:51,060 what difference does it make if it's made of metal? 1818 01:49:51,150 --> 01:49:55,140 Well, because it's a very pretty card. I mean, it's it's it has 1819 01:49:55,230 --> 01:49:59,820 this blue royal kind of purplish blue hue to it. Take a look and 1820 01:49:59,820 --> 01:50:03,930 then People will draw some faces from Chase. Yeah. And so I've 1821 01:50:03,930 --> 01:50:07,170 seen people pay with this card and they will throw it down 1822 01:50:07,170 --> 01:50:10,470 nonchalantly or drop it and go no, it has this like 1823 01:50:11,250 --> 01:50:12,300 this. Yes metal 1824 01:50:13,769 --> 01:50:16,409 and people go oh yes, this is my sapphire card. 1825 01:50:17,309 --> 01:50:20,369 This you know, these things is that that blue ish looking? 1826 01:50:20,399 --> 01:50:28,439 Yeah, she card. Yes sapphire 20 Oh crap. Yeah.

Mine doesn't always 1830 01:50:36,450 --> 01:50:37,470 seem to work. 1831 01:50:38,700 --> 01:50:41,880 By your estimation, John, how long have we been broadcasting? 1832 01:50:41,880 --> 01:50:43,920 If you take out the stops we had? 1833 01:50:44,130 --> 01:50:46,650 Is it time for our donations lasted about two to three 1834 01:50:46,650 --> 01:50:47,970 minutes each. Okay, is 1835 01:50:47,970 --> 01:50:50,850 it time for the donation segment because I've lost all the way 1836 01:50:50,850 --> 01:50:51,300 over during 1837 01:50:51,300 --> 01:50:53,490 the donation segment.

Good work. Sorry. 1891 01:54:33,270 --> 01:54:37,020 I had to note it's annoying. It's okay. We'll come back to 1892 01:54:37,020 --> 01:54:37,440 Terry 1893 01:54:37,740 --> 01:54:40,590 I need a rubber stamp or something or I need I need to 1894 01:54:40,590 --> 01:54:45,900 filing some I need a system. Oh wait a minute. I found a note. I 1895 01:54:45,900 --> 01:54:48,480 know it and we will read some of these notes when they hand 1896 01:54:48,480 --> 01:54:52,950 shipped. In the morning I donated a Bitcoin to Adam back 1897 01:54:52,950 --> 01:54:55,650 when you guys accepted them but decided I owed you something 1898 01:54:55,650 --> 01:54:59,970 more after the outstanding work you have to have done generated 1899 01:55:00,000 --> 01:55:03,690 and generated over the past few months. I sat on this check for 1900 01:55:03,690 --> 01:55:09,540 too long. And this stinks, by the way, but check. You sat on 1901 01:55:09,540 --> 01:55:15,240 it too long. Okay, it wasn't funny. Before I decided to send 1902 01:55:15,240 --> 01:55:18,210 it out now that I heard your analysis of the Silk Road take 1903 01:55:18,210 --> 01:55:23,760 down Adam was right on the money. There are several fishy 1904 01:55:23,760 --> 01:55:26,760 and contradictory details in the affidavits from Maryland and New 1905 01:55:26,760 --> 01:55:30,450 York filed against the Dread Pirate Roberts by the way, we 1906 01:55:30,450 --> 01:55:31,290 haven't followed up on that 1907 01:55:31,590 --> 01:55:35,550 guy. Well, I keep seeing cartoon drawings, you know, because I 1908 01:55:35,550 --> 01:55:38,190 guess he's, they bring in front in front of some judge 1909 01:55:38,190 --> 01:55:40,860 somewhere, which apparently press is not allowed because 1910 01:55:40,890 --> 01:55:45,660 Ooh, that will be too scary. So I keep seeing drawings of him. 1911 01:55:45,660 --> 01:55:51,120 So I guess he's real. And he denies that he's even Dread 1912 01:55:51,120 --> 01:55:53,940 Pirate Roberts. He's not he's denying. He's denying that he's 1913 01:55:53,940 --> 01:56:01,350 that And the crazy thing, Bitcoin $155. Now this thing is 1914 01:56:01,350 --> 01:56:08,460 going back to an all time high. So this whole exercise is fishy. 1915 01:56:09,390 --> 01:56:12,300 On Adams recommendation, I said about this bid message client 1916 01:56:12,300 --> 01:56:16,320 and fired off a note to him, but I have yet to receive a reply. I 1917 01:56:16,320 --> 01:56:20,340 am the one who answers my email. I really liked this tool. And 1918 01:56:20,340 --> 01:56:22,650 you can see a lot of potential you know, you can publish a 1919 01:56:22,680 --> 01:56:25,470 newsletter using bit messaging, you won't have to deal with any 1920 01:56:25,470 --> 01:56:29,160 Google spam filters. True. Okay, well, the 1921 01:56:29,160 --> 01:56:32,970 problem with the bid message is I am so I have everything loaded 1922 01:56:32,970 --> 01:56:36,090 on a USB stick, which is kind of the preferred method so you can 1923 01:56:36,090 --> 01:56:38,880 just stick it into any computer and fire up your bit message 1924 01:56:38,880 --> 01:56:42,690 stick it Yeah. And but if you don't after two days, any 1925 01:56:42,690 --> 01:56:46,740 messages sent to you get deleted nightmare. Sometimes I forget. I 1926 01:56:46,740 --> 01:56:47,970 forget to stick it in. 1927 01:56:48,360 --> 01:56:53,790 There you have it you get older. Yeah.

Just lay off the kale. 2005 02:02:01,920 --> 02:02:03,300 I think it's the kale that did it. 2006 02:02:04,710 --> 02:02:10,080 So I gotta get kind of a grape local. play this clip and then I 2007 02:02:10,080 --> 02:02:12,600 want to I want to deconstruct this a little bit and read and 2008 02:02:12,600 --> 02:02:15,780 so because my conclusion about this kind of thing is just 2009 02:02:15,780 --> 02:02:20,370 annoying. PAL I'm sorry. It would be nice if you knew what 2010 02:02:20,370 --> 02:02:24,000 the clip was. Yeah, what helped write Palo Alto Emergency Alert 2011 02:02:24,000 --> 02:02:24,510 System. 2012 02:02:24,809 --> 02:02:28,499 Okay, meanwhile, my computer's a little wonky. We got 2013 02:02:28,920 --> 02:02:31,590 some Peninsula residents were surprised by an emergency 2014 02:02:31,590 --> 02:02:34,380 message they received. Yes, I'm 27,000 Palo 2015 02:02:34,380 --> 02:02:39,270 Alto residents got this noisy smartphone emergency alert about 2016 02:02:39,750 --> 02:02:44,370 of all things. A charity pancake breakfast, obviously was not an 2017 02:02:44,370 --> 02:02:48,000 emergency KPI X fives Len Ramirez spoke to some people who 2018 02:02:48,000 --> 02:02:50,670 say the fire department is abusing this system. 2019 02:02:52,170 --> 02:02:54,690 The instant message went out on the county's emergency 2020 02:02:54,690 --> 02:02:58,800 notification system to 10s of 1000s of people in Palo Alto all 2021 02:02:58,800 --> 02:03:01,620 at once I got the alert in three ways. I got a text an email a 2022 02:03:01,620 --> 02:03:05,070 phone call under the header alert sec. The Palo Alto Fire 2023 02:03:05,070 --> 02:03:08,070 Department sent out word that they were a holding a pancake 2024 02:03:08,070 --> 02:03:11,310 breakfast Saturday morning and be that a helicopter would be 2025 02:03:11,310 --> 02:03:14,880 landing at a local school for demonstration purposes only. In 2026 02:03:14,880 --> 02:03:17,400 retrospect if I had to do it again, I probably would have put 2027 02:03:17,400 --> 02:03:20,850 the helicopter in the first or second sentence fire chief Eric 2028 02:03:20,850 --> 02:03:23,730 Nikhil defended using the alert system which was designed 2029 02:03:23,730 --> 02:03:26,970 primarily for major emergencies and Sesa when the system is 2030 02:03:26,970 --> 02:03:30,720 homepage for the community event which benefited projects safety 2031 02:03:30,720 --> 02:03:31,620 net. Yeah, I've 2032 02:03:31,620 --> 02:03:36,180 been following this and as you know, I've got some some some 2033 02:03:36,180 --> 02:03:37,320 info so I can 2034 02:03:37,500 --> 02:03:40,980 well project safety net is the key here Yes. What is this 2035 02:03:40,980 --> 02:03:43,680 project safety net and in fact LD there's a bunch of these 2036 02:03:43,680 --> 02:03:47,310 things going on in Palo Alto and they tend to be oriented or 2037 02:03:47,310 --> 02:03:50,730 about the as they put it on if you start digging around the 2038 02:03:50,730 --> 02:03:53,310 websites, and I thought it was interesting because they keep 2039 02:03:53,310 --> 02:04:00,330 changing is the LG bt TQQ community. Cute double que Yes, 2040 02:04:00,330 --> 02:04:00,690 double 2041 02:04:00,690 --> 02:04:03,420 que quiere and Queenie 2042 02:04:04,050 --> 02:04:07,440 questioning that would be you my friend. Ah, 2043 02:04:07,470 --> 02:04:12,510 I'm questioning I prefer by curious but questioning is I 2044 02:04:12,510 --> 02:04:15,450 think I fall in that I do fall in this category. 2045 02:04:15,660 --> 02:04:21,420 There's also LGBT que si. And I and there's a bunch of other 2046 02:04:21,420 --> 02:04:23,850 ones. And so I started looking into this and realizing that 2047 02:04:23,850 --> 02:04:28,320 apparently the the LGBTQ community has taken over the 2048 02:04:28,320 --> 02:04:31,350 emergency system. And they're the ones making these broadcasts 2049 02:04:31,350 --> 02:04:34,590 because they were so important. And I realized, you know, it's 2050 02:04:34,590 --> 02:04:38,430 so funny to follow this this the history of this moniker. And 2051 02:04:38,430 --> 02:04:43,230 there's a really good page, LGBT web page on the Wikipedia. And 2052 02:04:43,230 --> 02:04:47,250 of course I'm always reminded when I was working at WME VO and 2053 02:04:47,430 --> 02:04:52,380 Brooks who's a fairly notorious gay guy there was there he was 2054 02:04:52,410 --> 02:04:55,320 he always said he never could figure out when it happened when 2055 02:04:55,320 --> 02:04:59,730 they changed it from GLB T to LGBT 2056 02:05:00,000 --> 02:05:04,080 one that uses be gay and lesbian uses to be just began lesbian, 2057 02:05:04,080 --> 02:05:07,110 but then the lesbians didn't like that. At first it was gay 2058 02:05:07,200 --> 02:05:10,470 and because lesbians are gay, but the lesbians didn't like 2059 02:05:10,470 --> 02:05:12,570 that, because they didn't want to be associated with the men 2060 02:05:12,570 --> 02:05:16,590 with penis. So they have to exist. So they had to make it. 2061 02:05:16,890 --> 02:05:20,490 And then you know, GLBT was because the Baiser irked. And so 2062 02:05:20,490 --> 02:05:24,390 were the transgenders. And so now everybody's irked. And it 2063 02:05:24,390 --> 02:05:27,300 doesn't seem to be like a group with cohesion, even though they 2064 02:05:27,300 --> 02:05:30,390 have a party once in a while. It seems like they just at each 2065 02:05:30,390 --> 02:05:33,660 other's throats. And there's a bunch of crazy stuff that goes 2066 02:05:33,660 --> 02:05:36,810 on including these, you know, the third gender identity, which 2067 02:05:36,810 --> 02:05:39,720 is one of these things that's that's being promoted in India. 2068 02:05:40,050 --> 02:05:41,400 And so you end up with, 2069 02:05:41,850 --> 02:05:43,980 well hold on, what about CBT i 2070 02:05:44,010 --> 02:05:50,580 h, because Hijra ha j are a third gender identity has its 2071 02:05:50,580 --> 02:05:55,290 own subculture. And so this is getting really carried away with 2072 02:05:55,290 --> 02:05:57,360 all this kinda. And I would recommend people reading the 2073 02:05:57,360 --> 02:06:03,630 entire page of the LGBT page on Wikipedia, because it discusses 2074 02:06:03,660 --> 02:06:08,220 kind of the history of this. And I just find the whole thing to 2075 02:06:08,220 --> 02:06:11,310 be I don't know if it's laughable, but why are they 2076 02:06:11,310 --> 02:06:15,000 sending out emergency messages for a pancake breakfast? Have 2077 02:06:15,000 --> 02:06:19,650 you ever been to a pancake breakfast? No ludicrous. It's a 2078 02:06:19,650 --> 02:06:23,970 bunch of cheap pancakes with a bunch of cheap, the cheapest, 2079 02:06:23,970 --> 02:06:26,550 there's no real maple syrup there. I guarantee it even in 2080 02:06:26,550 --> 02:06:31,140 Palo Alto, it'll be some sort of high fructose corn syrup mixture 2081 02:06:31,320 --> 02:06:34,050 that you dump on there with a bunch of cheap butter or 2082 02:06:34,050 --> 02:06:36,840 margarine and then you eat this in public 2083 02:06:40,920 --> 02:06:42,240 while people are watching you 2084 02:06:45,090 --> 02:06:49,860 know I scold the LGBTQ Q community for 2085 02:06:49,890 --> 02:06:54,720 Boris using this system.

The Trevor Project is the leading national organization 2150 02:11:03,359 --> 02:11:07,049 providing crisis intervention and suicide prevention services 2151 02:11:07,049 --> 02:11:10,979 for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning 2152 02:11:10,979 --> 02:11:14,099 youth.

Anyway, that's my 2157 02:11:34,619 --> 02:11:34,859 little 2158 02:11:34,890 --> 02:11:35,760 gripe for now. That's, 2159 02:11:35,880 --> 02:11:41,460 that's good. And it looks like I finally got an email titled Red 2160 02:11:41,460 --> 02:11:48,540 Book denial. Like what? Yeah, so this red book, this RB, what is 2161 02:11:48,540 --> 02:11:55,050 it RRD BK dotnet. So apparently, one of the Red Book entries that 2162 02:11:55,050 --> 02:11:59,220 we have in our official red book went on his website. And my read 2163 02:11:59,220 --> 02:12:01,020 would prediction was deputy director of the National 2164 02:12:01,020 --> 02:12:04,290 Security Agency, John C. Inglis will become the next Secretary 2165 02:12:04,290 --> 02:12:06,990 of Homeland Security replacing Janet Napolitano when she 2166 02:12:06,990 --> 02:12:11,310 leaves. Now we've had no replacement. As far as I know, 2167 02:12:11,790 --> 02:12:16,890 and the news came out that Kaiser Alexander is quitting. 2168 02:12:17,040 --> 02:12:23,130 Yes, along with his second in command, John C. Inglis and yeah 2169 02:12:23,160 --> 02:12:27,630 and then so someone went on the red book site and said I think 2170 02:12:27,630 --> 02:12:29,910 it's safe to say this is not going to happen now that he's 2171 02:12:29,910 --> 02:12:34,410 being forced out you're denied I don't Yeah, yeah. And then I got 2172 02:12:34,410 --> 02:12:36,780 an email like I'm denied and it's not true that they could 2173 02:12:36,780 --> 02:12:37,170 see you 2174 02:12:37,170 --> 02:12:41,010 denied because what it says it's it says denied on the website 2175 02:12:41,010 --> 02:12:41,760 denied me 2176 02:12:41,790 --> 02:12:46,920 I don't know. This is the this is the site anyway said denied. 2177 02:12:47,370 --> 02:12:51,690 So I guess that mean to my my red book entry has been denied. 2178 02:12:51,690 --> 02:12:54,480 I don't know what that means. What was your red book entry? 2179 02:12:55,410 --> 02:12:56,610 What I just told you that 2180 02:12:56,640 --> 02:12:59,490 England was gonna go to Homeland Security? Yeah. 2181 02:12:59,940 --> 02:13:03,270 I think it's so possible. Yeah, sure it is. 2182 02:13:04,200 --> 02:13:05,970 So why would it be denied? Well, 2183 02:13:06,000 --> 02:13:09,240 this is why I don't like it. Okay, well, you mentioned it's 2184 02:13:09,480 --> 02:13:16,620 not gonna get any more approval. If Adam Curry who has read book 2185 02:13:16,620 --> 02:13:21,900 authorization phase, I asked secret authorization to actually 2186 02:13:21,900 --> 02:13:22,620 use the red 2187 02:13:22,860 --> 02:13:26,700 clearance. Whenever he says goes in there I have red book 2188 02:13:26,700 --> 02:13:27,420 clearance. 2189 02:13:27,660 --> 02:13:31,080 He has total clearance for the Red Book. So whatever he says he 2190 02:13:31,080 --> 02:13:35,790 can be full of crap, which is possible. It still goes in the 2191 02:13:35,790 --> 02:13:40,380 red book to be used later as a pointer. He was full of crap on 2192 02:13:40,380 --> 02:13:41,700 this No, that's terrible. 2193 02:13:41,760 --> 02:13:44,730 I don't think I think it's still good they maybe they use the 2194 02:13:44,730 --> 02:13:45,780 wrong IP address. Maybe 2195 02:13:45,780 --> 02:13:48,180 they saw you as just some interloper, not the real Adam 2196 02:13:48,180 --> 02:13:48,600 curry. 2197 02:13:49,620 --> 02:13:53,490 Regardless of that, it is of course very interesting to see 2198 02:13:53,520 --> 02:13:58,500 Alexander saying he's going to leave in six months along with 2199 02:13:58,500 --> 02:14:03,570 English and I will say that the smart thing for these guys to do 2200 02:14:03,570 --> 02:14:06,540 would be to start their own consulting company they've set 2201 02:14:06,540 --> 02:14:07,410 up beautifully it's 2202 02:14:07,410 --> 02:14:11,310 gonna go right to work probably for for Sharecare Tov 2203 02:14:11,310 --> 02:14:13,200 you think we'll go straight because because this guy they 2204 02:14:13,200 --> 02:14:14,820 actually they don't call him Kaiser 2205 02:14:15,150 --> 02:14:18,150 let's face he's not an entrepreneur. Take a look at 2206 02:14:18,150 --> 02:14:21,930 him. But as a guy as a students, church office operation just do 2207 02:14:21,930 --> 02:14:25,080 some lobbying, and probably take a few records of of them if you 2208 02:14:25,080 --> 02:14:27,390 know what I'm saying. You know, be kind of the official 2209 02:14:27,390 --> 02:14:29,340 blackmailer for the for the place got 2210 02:14:29,340 --> 02:14:33,780 some info. Yeah. He was they used to call him Alexander the 2211 02:14:33,780 --> 02:14:36,780 geek. When he was a kid, 2212 02:14:36,810 --> 02:14:40,080 it's all geeky wouldn't have that Star Trek thing. Take that 2213 02:14:40,080 --> 02:14:40,680 with him. Yeah, 2214 02:14:40,710 --> 02:14:46,080 he's a break that down and put that in the truck. They called 2215 02:14:46,080 --> 02:14:48,540 him the Emperor actually, I've been reading I've been reading 2216 02:14:48,540 --> 02:14:53,910 up on his on his past.

So we actually by calling him Kaiser 2219 02:15:00,720 --> 02:15:06,090 we're actually close. Close but I think Emperor is above Kaiser, 2220 02:15:06,090 --> 02:15:06,540 isn't it? 2221 02:15:06,810 --> 02:15:07,920 I think they're equal. 2222 02:15:11,639 --> 02:15:16,169 Toes Yeah, that's that's surprising yet.

Hari Sreenivasan has our report about what's 2262 02:17:38,250 --> 02:17:42,990 triggered this debate and then bring them on in along the fence 2263 02:17:42,990 --> 02:17:45,810 line but several times a week this summer, residents of the 2264 02:17:45,810 --> 02:17:49,710 Navajo Indian Reservation in New Mexico mapped out a game plan. 2265 02:17:51,330 --> 02:17:54,810 They set up a temporary pen and then headed out by horseback and 2266 02:17:54,810 --> 02:17:58,980 ATVs to round up groups of wild horses that have become a threat 2267 02:17:58,980 --> 02:18:01,680 to the livelihood of farmers and ranchers here. 2268 02:18:01,980 --> 02:18:05,100 These horses are bouncing in between ranches in between 2269 02:18:05,100 --> 02:18:08,790 homesteads. They're again eating the forage drinking the water 2270 02:18:08,790 --> 02:18:12,870 each horse feral horse we estimate eats anywhere between 2271 02:18:12,870 --> 02:18:17,550 five and 18 pounds of forage a day. They drink between five and 2272 02:18:17,550 --> 02:18:19,680 15 gallons of water a day. 2273 02:18:21,420 --> 02:18:24,540 Bernie za spokesman for the tribe estimates that feral 2274 02:18:24,540 --> 02:18:27,480 horses that is horses that run wild but at one time were 2275 02:18:27,480 --> 02:18:32,400 domesticated cost the Navajos $200,000 a year in damages. 2276 02:18:32,640 --> 02:18:36,450 There are approximately 70,000 of them in northwestern New 2277 02:18:36,450 --> 02:18:39,870 Mexico alone and Zaha says they're putting a tremendous 2278 02:18:39,870 --> 02:18:43,740 strain on the land and resources land that is already struggling 2279 02:18:43,740 --> 02:18:46,470 from a catastrophic drought. I say 2280 02:18:46,950 --> 02:18:51,090 Edom well that's what we're trying to do. But the animal 2281 02:18:51,090 --> 02:18:54,270 rights folks don't seem to care about and you know, they think 2282 02:18:54,270 --> 02:18:57,420 that you know, a lot of people eat horse meat. A lot of 2283 02:18:57,420 --> 02:19:01,260 cultures I mean they do in China they do and Slovenia is like a 2284 02:19:01,260 --> 02:19:03,720 big horse meat even though they don't like to admit it to 2285 02:19:03,750 --> 02:19:08,610 outsiders. And I went to a horse meat specialty steakhouse when I 2286 02:19:08,610 --> 02:19:14,370 was there and had a big slab of sirloin horsemeat which was kind 2287 02:19:14,370 --> 02:19:18,930 of dance I guess I did Slovenians I don't know it's not 2288 02:19:18,930 --> 02:19:23,850 that I don't dislike horse meat, but it's not something I mean it 2289 02:19:23,850 --> 02:19:25,620 makes a good talk so I had in Mexico 2290 02:19:25,650 --> 02:19:28,830 I've had have had that's fine with me i also have no problem 2291 02:19:28,830 --> 02:19:30,990 with it. I'm not I don't have problem I don't have a problem 2292 02:19:30,990 --> 02:19:34,800 with the thought of it. I mean, there was a big thing recently 2293 02:19:34,800 --> 02:19:38,130 like a couple months back in the UK. The horse meat is in 2294 02:19:38,130 --> 02:19:42,270 everything and it's a Tescos and it's at Burger King and it said 2295 02:19:42,630 --> 02:19:45,450 yeah Mac King Berg burgers obviously coming in 2296 02:19:45,450 --> 02:19:48,660 from outside the country because they banned somehow but played 2297 02:19:48,660 --> 02:19:50,970 this play this out that play horse part two 2298 02:19:51,000 --> 02:19:54,600 round ups, in which horses are chased across open land into 2299 02:19:54,600 --> 02:19:59,520 makeshift corrals and then loaded into trailers to head to 2300 02:19:59,520 --> 02:20:03,270 auction Many of the horses end up in slaughterhouses in Canada 2301 02:20:03,270 --> 02:20:07,800 and Mexico, their meat exported to China or Europe, where unlike 2302 02:20:07,800 --> 02:20:12,990 the US, horse meat is regularly consumed. The United States shut 2303 02:20:12,990 --> 02:20:16,260 down horse slaughterhouses in this country six years ago when 2304 02:20:16,260 --> 02:20:19,680 it prohibited federal funding for inspectors. But recently 2305 02:20:19,680 --> 02:20:24,420 Congress removed it was the law of the land. And this summer, 2306 02:20:24,570 --> 02:20:28,200 the USDA awarded the first permit that would allow horse 2307 02:20:28,200 --> 02:20:31,590 slaughter to resume in the US. It was a decision that ignited a 2308 02:20:31,590 --> 02:20:35,040 nationwide debate about the practice of killing horses for 2309 02:20:35,040 --> 02:20:36,210 me. Wow, I 2310 02:20:36,210 --> 02:20:39,180 can just I can just see this I can already see it come in here 2311 02:20:39,180 --> 02:20:44,490 and Texas has gonna be protests and it's all sad. I can see 2312 02:20:44,490 --> 02:20:44,670 this. 2313 02:20:45,630 --> 02:20:48,210 Llama but people shouldn't discuss this the next dinner. 2314 02:20:48,240 --> 02:20:55,350 Yeah. Oh, the poor horsey. You can eat a horsey. So play part 2315 02:20:55,350 --> 02:20:58,500 three, and you have a couple a second comments. 2316 02:20:58,770 --> 02:21:01,890 Rios concedes that humane euthanasia and population 2317 02:21:01,890 --> 02:21:05,370 control are very expensive remedies. Euthanasia costs 2318 02:21:05,370 --> 02:21:09,480 roughly $300 per horse, and that's not including the cost to 2319 02:21:09,480 --> 02:21:13,560 round it up. Right now. Contraception for wild horses is 2320 02:21:13,560 --> 02:21:16,680 difficult to administer. It involves shooting darts from 2321 02:21:16,680 --> 02:21:20,250 helicopters, the treatment that must be reinjected every two 2322 02:21:20,250 --> 02:21:24,120 years. Rios is opposed to slaughter, but she says it's not 2323 02:21:24,120 --> 02:21:29,040 a simple issue. She says horses are dying every day in trucks as 2324 02:21:29,040 --> 02:21:31,680 they're shipped out of the country and on the range land 2325 02:21:31,680 --> 02:21:34,650 when they run out of food. She thinks the government has been 2326 02:21:34,650 --> 02:21:37,260 delinquent by not spending enough money to deal with the 2327 02:21:37,260 --> 02:21:41,670 problem. It's inhumane to let animals starve to death 2328 02:21:41,700 --> 02:21:44,970 dehydrate to death. procreate. 2329 02:21:45,450 --> 02:21:49,140 Excuse me, isn't that the definition of inhumane is 2330 02:21:49,260 --> 02:21:59,490 animals. It's an inhumane means not treated like a human. Well, 2331 02:21:59,670 --> 02:22:02,970 it's as you say, it's inhumane to treat animals that way. Isn't 2332 02:22:02,970 --> 02:22:05,370 that like some kind of paradise 2333 02:22:05,640 --> 02:22:08,430 that we have? Now you brought this up? I have to we have to 2334 02:22:08,430 --> 02:22:09,120 look it up. I'm 2335 02:22:09,120 --> 02:22:10,950 gonna finish the last 16 seconds 2336 02:22:11,730 --> 02:22:16,170 procreate at a level that the environment is unable to 2337 02:22:16,170 --> 02:22:22,020 support. So that's why at the shelter, we wouldn't just say we 2338 02:22:22,020 --> 02:22:25,650 were against slaughter, we are for humane alternatives. 2339 02:22:27,060 --> 02:22:30,150 Cremation, what are the human doing? 2340 02:22:30,420 --> 02:22:33,120 When I say we should bring wolves back to whatever? 2341 02:22:33,449 --> 02:22:37,079 What humane alternatives do we have for animals? This is going 2342 02:22:37,079 --> 02:22:37,349 this is 2343 02:22:38,610 --> 02:22:43,650 inhumane means lacking pity or compassion. It's got nothing to 2344 02:22:43,650 --> 02:22:44,250 do with anything. 2345 02:22:44,820 --> 02:22:48,540 Well, Oh, okay. I thought the word human was in there. 2346 02:22:49,080 --> 02:22:53,610 Yeah, well, no, it means lackey. Not acting like a like as 2347 02:22:53,610 --> 02:22:58,530 compassionate human. Without compassion for misery or 2348 02:22:58,530 --> 02:23:03,060 suffering. Period. Okay, not about people. No. Okay. 2349 02:23:04,770 --> 02:23:07,110 It seems it seems like maybe that has. 2350 02:23:07,740 --> 02:23:10,680 And it says here it as part of the definition confining wild 2351 02:23:10,680 --> 02:23:13,350 horses is inhuman, whatever you do is inhumane. But anyway, 2352 02:23:13,350 --> 02:23:16,860 they've sued to stop the slaughterhouse. And they have 2353 02:23:16,860 --> 02:23:19,980 all kinds of reasons why and that meanwhile, these horses are 2354 02:23:19,980 --> 02:23:22,770 being shipped out to Mexico are there they're just such a great 2355 02:23:22,770 --> 02:23:26,490 job down there. You can count on that. And so the but it's, you 2356 02:23:26,490 --> 02:23:28,860 know, they have an injunction and this whole thing is going 2357 02:23:28,860 --> 02:23:31,770 on. We have too many horses that need to be eaten. And they're 2358 02:23:31,770 --> 02:23:33,720 running all over the place. You have people starving in the 2359 02:23:33,720 --> 02:23:37,860 streets. We have homeless that would love to have a horse 2360 02:23:37,860 --> 02:23:39,240 steak. But no, 2361 02:23:39,780 --> 02:23:43,140 we have people eating mac and cheese. Yeah, people are going 2362 02:23:43,140 --> 02:23:47,700 69 cent mac and cheese at 39 cent. Mac and cheese dinners. 2363 02:23:50,100 --> 02:23:52,710 Anyway, that's just I did I just thought that was an interesting 2364 02:23:52,710 --> 02:23:54,900 situation. I didn't realize there was 70,000 of them there. 2365 02:23:54,900 --> 02:23:57,090 They're apparently just a quarter of a million to a 2366 02:23:57,090 --> 02:24:03,120 million wild horses running around. Wow. Well. Here's 2367 02:24:03,120 --> 02:24:05,040 another I got one more. Okay, 2368 02:24:05,070 --> 02:24:08,250 I have some other stuff that I got. 2369 02:24:08,250 --> 02:24:11,400 Did they finally gave the Medal of Honor to this one soldier. 2370 02:24:11,429 --> 02:24:16,349 Did you see that ceremony? Yeah, that was creepy. 2371 02:24:17,370 --> 02:24:19,380 Well, it was creepy because they didn't want to give the guy the 2372 02:24:19,380 --> 02:24:22,530 award. But they already gave it to one of the Marines that was 2373 02:24:22,530 --> 02:24:23,130 involved with it 2374 02:24:23,130 --> 02:24:25,470 as they gave it to the guy who then they took it back and they 2375 02:24:25,470 --> 02:24:28,200 arrested him and they accused him of lying and as all this 2376 02:24:28,200 --> 02:24:32,280 crazy stuff going on this. This whole thing is a debacle, this 2377 02:24:32,280 --> 02:24:36,240 medal of honor. So now they have for the first time in like 200 2378 02:24:36,240 --> 02:24:39,570 years. They've given the Medal of Honor to two guys from the 2379 02:24:39,570 --> 02:24:43,710 same battle. Yeah, right. Yeah. Okay. 2380 02:24:43,800 --> 02:24:46,110 Well, they didn't want to give it to this guy who was the the 2381 02:24:46,110 --> 02:24:50,160 captain I believe. And so play part one of this and then the 2382 02:24:50,190 --> 02:24:53,220 what I thought was funny about this, essentially, the rationale 2383 02:24:53,220 --> 02:24:56,340 that the army finally came out with was the dog ate the 2384 02:24:56,340 --> 02:24:56,970 homework 2385 02:24:57,000 --> 02:25:00,240 because to surrender, so well stops treating kind of long 2386 02:25:00,240 --> 02:25:04,680 enough to respond by lobbing a grenade. And finally, after more 2387 02:25:04,680 --> 02:25:06,990 than an hour and a half of fighting air support arrives. 2388 02:25:09,389 --> 02:25:13,589 A helmet cam worn by a crewman in a medevac helicopter showed 2389 02:25:13,589 --> 02:25:17,969 Swenson kissing the sergeant's head to reassure him. Westbrook 2390 02:25:17,969 --> 02:25:22,199 ultimately died, joining the four Americans 10 Afghan troops 2391 02:25:22,199 --> 02:25:26,339 and an interpreter killed in the ambush. Another man involved in 2392 02:25:26,339 --> 02:25:29,909 that fight. Marine Corporal Dakota Meyer was awarded his 2393 02:25:29,909 --> 02:25:33,959 medal of honor in 2011. The Pentagon is now investigating 2394 02:25:33,959 --> 02:25:37,439 allegations that Swensons nomination was delayed because 2395 02:25:37,439 --> 02:25:41,309 he criticized superiors over the handling of the battle. The 2396 02:25:41,309 --> 02:25:44,219 military says his paperwork was lost. 2397 02:25:44,969 --> 02:25:49,139 You know, they literally deleted this guy's name from the 2398 02:25:49,139 --> 02:25:53,999 database inside the Pentagon. Yeah, like like took his name 2399 02:25:54,029 --> 02:25:54,629 out? 2400 02:25:56,370 --> 02:25:58,590 Well, it was one of the congressman from Missouri up in 2401 02:25:58,590 --> 02:26:03,300 Washington state whose cladding that apparently supposedly 2402 02:26:03,300 --> 02:26:06,930 helped. But play part two and the there's a little rundown by 2403 02:26:06,930 --> 02:26:09,660 with this other guy that discusses some of these issues. 2404 02:26:10,050 --> 02:26:11,580 To help fill in this story. I'm 2405 02:26:11,580 --> 02:26:14,700 joined now by David Nakamura of The Washington Post. He's 2406 02:26:14,700 --> 02:26:18,330 interviewed Swenson many times. And while this is a story of 2407 02:26:18,360 --> 02:26:22,440 uncommon heroism, is it also fair to say that it was an 2408 02:26:22,440 --> 02:26:26,040 uncommon path to today's metal ceremony? Absolutely. It's been 2409 02:26:26,040 --> 02:26:29,400 a long four years right for will Swenson he has left the military 2410 02:26:29,400 --> 02:26:32,280 two years ago, and he went back to his native Seattle where he's 2411 02:26:32,280 --> 02:26:34,800 from where he went to college. And he has really kept a low 2412 02:26:34,800 --> 02:26:37,020 profile. In part, I think because of the controversy 2413 02:26:37,020 --> 02:26:39,720 surrounding his award. There is a lot of allegations that the 2414 02:26:39,750 --> 02:26:42,390 army was concerned about his criticism concerned about what 2415 02:26:42,390 --> 02:26:45,360 kind of representation he would give. He was on a public stage 2416 02:26:45,360 --> 02:26:49,020 like this. However, there's been pressure from outside, both from 2417 02:26:49,110 --> 02:26:52,470 reports and in the media, but also a US Congressman got 2418 02:26:52,470 --> 02:26:55,290 involved asking what happened to this nomination. He deserves the 2419 02:26:55,290 --> 02:26:58,260 award. He's got it today. He stood up there, like a good 2420 02:26:58,260 --> 02:27:00,600 soldier and accepted the award and that was back in his 2421 02:27:00,600 --> 02:27:03,030 uniform. So it was a very powerful moment. The President 2422 02:27:03,030 --> 02:27:06,270 touched on it lightly as he did as he does it all medal 2423 02:27:06,270 --> 02:27:10,950 ceremonies, he told the story of how this award came to be. It 2424 02:27:10,950 --> 02:27:14,940 took a long time for those men to get air support when they 2425 02:27:14,940 --> 02:27:17,970 were pinned down by those snipers. Absolutely our our 2426 02:27:17,970 --> 02:27:20,910 reporting show that it's about took about 90 minutes probably 2427 02:27:20,910 --> 02:27:23,970 understand from eyewitnesses of people involved in the ambush, 2428 02:27:24,060 --> 02:27:27,600 90 minutes of pure fighting. There's were 11 or so us 2429 02:27:27,600 --> 02:27:30,870 trainers with Afghan National Army troops and border police 2430 02:27:30,870 --> 02:27:34,470 who were allied with the US but we're not completely under our 2431 02:27:34,470 --> 02:27:37,950 command. And so some of those folks just ran off in the battle 2432 02:27:38,100 --> 02:27:41,820 the US soldiers got and Marine Corps got separated from one 2433 02:27:41,820 --> 02:27:44,490 another, which was a part of the problem. Their communication was 2434 02:27:44,490 --> 02:27:47,010 cut off at one point. And so they were really expanded on the 2435 02:27:47,010 --> 02:27:49,380 battlefield for a long time. It took two hours for wills Swenson 2436 02:27:49,380 --> 02:27:51,720 and his men to move back they suffered casualties including 2437 02:27:51,870 --> 02:27:54,720 Kenneth Westbrook as the video showed, and that was a problem 2438 02:27:54,720 --> 02:27:57,510 and they eventually were able to regroup, go back out, and they 2439 02:27:57,510 --> 02:28:00,660 found the former three Marines and a Navy corpsman who had been 2440 02:28:00,660 --> 02:28:02,250 killed unfortunately, what are some 2441 02:28:03,960 --> 02:28:06,990 anyway so they go on and talk about why did it take an hour 2442 02:28:06,990 --> 02:28:10,020 and a half and supposedly somebody was reprimanded but 2443 02:28:10,020 --> 02:28:13,350 they won't say who fairly this was under MIT crystals watch by 2444 02:28:13,350 --> 02:28:19,170 the way who had changed the rules of engagement the rules of 2445 02:28:19,170 --> 02:28:22,020 engagement to being some weird 2446 02:28:22,080 --> 02:28:25,470 now here's the disgusting thing about this as the the dead 2447 02:28:25,470 --> 02:28:30,750 soldiers were just you know no no arriving ceremony no flag 2448 02:28:30,750 --> 02:28:34,140 draped coffin no salutes no oh yeah no what happens but and 2449 02:28:34,140 --> 02:28:37,050 then you don't see it on the news?

US forces got ambushed by 60 2477 02:29:58,380 --> 02:30:00,780 Taliban enroute to meet Villa Two elders. 2478 02:30:00,960 --> 02:30:03,060 Maybe it was just creepy looking at it. I'll stop it now. 2479 02:30:03,330 --> 02:30:06,660 Well, maybe it was creepy because the guy's still irked. 2480 02:30:07,410 --> 02:30:11,190 Yeah, yeah. The way he just become bitter. Yeah, the way he 2481 02:30:11,190 --> 02:30:12,240 was talking. And 2482 02:30:12,660 --> 02:30:15,750 he sounded like he was talking like someone who had just was 2483 02:30:15,750 --> 02:30:19,170 about to blow. And he knew better. Yeah. So he made it 2484 02:30:19,170 --> 02:30:23,940 clear that he was not a happy camper. I have. So here's one 2485 02:30:23,940 --> 02:30:24,120 for 2486 02:30:24,120 --> 02:30:27,210 you. Here's one for you. But you've done three in a row. Now 2487 02:30:27,240 --> 02:30:27,720 I'm doing 2488 02:30:27,750 --> 02:30:30,510 this will be three in a row. But I just want to ask you this 2489 02:30:30,510 --> 02:30:35,010 question. This is an ask Adam actually, this is the IHT 2490 02:30:35,010 --> 02:30:38,640 rebranded, I went I'm gonna ask in advance, why would anyone in 2491 02:30:38,640 --> 02:30:41,640 their right mind do what just happened? 2492 02:30:42,840 --> 02:30:45,930 And outdoors, the International Herald Tribune incomes, the 2493 02:30:45,930 --> 02:30:51,750 International New York Times after 126 year run, the IHT is 2494 02:30:51,750 --> 02:30:52,560 rebranded. 2495 02:30:54,690 --> 02:30:57,960 You're like you're the one of the world's experts on brands. 2496 02:30:57,990 --> 02:31:01,350 Yes, I am. That's correct. I am a brand expert, Nike would be 2497 02:31:01,350 --> 02:31:04,830 nowhere without me. In fact, I said, Hey, just do it. And then 2498 02:31:04,830 --> 02:31:06,150 that became pretty famous. 2499 02:31:07,080 --> 02:31:11,400 So why would they do this? For one thing when you're overseas? 2500 02:31:11,760 --> 02:31:13,650 I mean, the New York Times when you subscribe to The New York 2501 02:31:13,650 --> 02:31:15,780 Times, I don't care where you are. But if they I get, I used 2502 02:31:15,780 --> 02:31:17,820 to have it come in here now. And they have it on Sundays. And 2503 02:31:17,820 --> 02:31:19,800 actually, I forgot to pay for it. So they don't even send me 2504 02:31:19,800 --> 02:31:22,650 that anymore. But I'll sell it to pay eventually. Because I do 2505 02:31:22,650 --> 02:31:27,120 like to do the online research with it. Whatever the case, when 2506 02:31:27,120 --> 02:31:29,730 I get to New York Times, and I open it and start reading it, I 2507 02:31:29,730 --> 02:31:33,510 know I'm reading a New York City newspaper about what's going on, 2508 02:31:33,540 --> 02:31:37,020 mostly in New York. They got the art museums, they got Broadway 2509 02:31:37,020 --> 02:31:39,060 plays, it kind of makes you think you're kind of like maybe 2510 02:31:39,060 --> 02:31:41,280 a little bit in New York, it feels a little cosmopolitan. 2511 02:31:41,280 --> 02:31:44,070 Yes, of course. Now, when you're overseas, and you see the 2512 02:31:44,070 --> 02:31:47,340 International Herald Tribune, it's an international paper 2513 02:31:47,340 --> 02:31:49,860 about everything all over the place, even though 2514 02:31:49,890 --> 02:31:52,590 but it is written and published by The New York Times 2515 02:31:52,590 --> 02:31:53,820 Corporation, correct. And 2516 02:31:53,820 --> 02:31:56,100 it was actually a joint venture with them in the Washington Post 2517 02:31:56,100 --> 02:31:58,830 for a long time and the Washington Post gave up. But so 2518 02:31:58,830 --> 02:32:01,920 what but it's still a brand that has been around for over 100 2519 02:32:01,920 --> 02:32:05,310 years. Why would you change it to the International New York 2520 02:32:05,310 --> 02:32:09,330 Times? It makes no sense. New York is about New York what 2521 02:32:09,330 --> 02:32:12,330 would you put the name New York on it the international times 2522 02:32:12,330 --> 02:32:16,230 would make sense. So I'm asking you on a branding basis what 2523 02:32:16,260 --> 02:32:17,970 what is what's the thinking here? 2524 02:32:19,800 --> 02:32:23,820 Sounds to me like we have a pending sale or investment or 2525 02:32:23,820 --> 02:32:27,990 something else is happening that is exterior to this and either a 2526 02:32:27,990 --> 02:32:30,630 board member had a great idea that sounds like someone who has 2527 02:32:30,630 --> 02:32:35,340 no idea what they're doing is doing something in fact, maybe 2528 02:32:35,370 --> 02:32:39,120 Eleanor Clift is running the New York Times. Listen to this. 2529 02:32:39,150 --> 02:32:41,250 Well, this is one of the big problems now you've got a race 2530 02:32:41,250 --> 02:32:43,470 to be first whether you're tweeting or you're on the air or 2531 02:32:43,470 --> 02:32:46,830 you're writing a blog or what are writing a story. You've got 2532 02:32:46,830 --> 02:32:50,730 so many demands as journalists now on your l&r, you're at The 2533 02:32:50,730 --> 02:32:53,400 Daily Beast you're doing this do you have somebody editing, every 2534 02:32:53,400 --> 02:32:55,860 tweet, every story, every word that you owe? 2535 02:32:55,890 --> 02:33:00,480 Nobody edits the tweets as far as I know. Nobody edits. No, no. 2536 02:33:00,840 --> 02:33:04,560 In fact, I say to myself every day Eleanor think less tweet 2537 02:33:04,560 --> 02:33:04,950 more. 2538 02:33:04,980 --> 02:33:07,800 There you go. That's the slogan ladies and gentlemen, think less 2539 02:33:07,800 --> 02:33:13,650 tweet more. It's this woman. Clip of the Day it goes on 2540 02:33:13,650 --> 02:33:20,220 because I don't tweet enough. Really scary. You trust yourself 2541 02:33:20,220 --> 02:33:24,480 and I was just talking about masturbation. Don't do it. 2542 02:33:24,480 --> 02:33:27,780 I mean, I tweet fairly erect. Just replace 2543 02:33:27,780 --> 02:33:33,030 tweet with this story is much better for Eleanor. Oh, come on, 2544 02:33:33,030 --> 02:33:35,130 Elena. Oh, come on. You're stuck 2545 02:33:35,190 --> 02:33:38,670 writing a story. You've got so many demands as journalists now 2546 02:33:38,910 --> 02:33:41,670 on your l&r. You're at The Daily Beast, you're doing this. Do you 2547 02:33:41,670 --> 02:33:44,730 have somebody editing every tweet, every story? Every word 2548 02:33:44,730 --> 02:33:45,420 that you owe? 2549 02:33:45,450 --> 02:33:51,510 Nobody edits the tweets, as far as I know. No, no. In fact, I 2550 02:33:51,510 --> 02:33:54,780 say to myself every day, Eleanor think less tweet more because I 2551 02:33:54,780 --> 02:33:59,700 don't tweet enough. Really scary. Well, no, you have to 2552 02:33:59,700 --> 02:34:04,320 kind of trust yourself and put, I don't do it. I mean, I tweet 2553 02:34:04,350 --> 02:34:09,240 fairly irregularly. But in today's world, we are encouraged 2554 02:34:09,270 --> 02:34:13,620 to tweet to get our stories out there or promote our colleagues. 2555 02:34:13,860 --> 02:34:18,120 And if we're analysts and pundits, we should we should get 2556 02:34:18,120 --> 02:34:20,730 our thoughts out there. I've never done anything or said 2557 02:34:20,730 --> 02:34:24,120 anything that's career ending yet. We're all about two steps 2558 02:34:24,120 --> 02:34:25,710 away from Actually 2559 02:34:25,740 --> 02:34:28,830 Actually I think she has said something career ending on the 2560 02:34:28,830 --> 02:34:33,180 Twitter constitutional. That was her tweet. 2561 02:34:33,930 --> 02:34:43,350 So she said that nobody edits her tweets that she knows up. 2562 02:34:43,530 --> 02:34:45,330 Does she know how this even works? 2563 02:34:45,420 --> 02:34:49,950 Because she's she actually writes down in longhand. And 2564 02:34:49,950 --> 02:34:55,080 then she goes and she counts with a pen 123456 720 Good. And 2565 02:34:55,080 --> 02:34:57,480 she hands it off to someone they go then and tweet. 2566 02:34:57,960 --> 02:35:00,690 That's sounds like it. Let's take a look. Look at Eleanor 2567 02:35:00,690 --> 02:35:01,980 Cliff's Twitter 2568 02:35:03,270 --> 02:35:05,880 Thank you I had this is something this is this is why 2569 02:35:05,880 --> 02:35:07,110 we're a great team John 2570 02:35:07,230 --> 02:35:11,760 man BC polls find Obamacare gaining popularity since shut 2571 02:35:11,760 --> 02:35:16,980 down.

I think maybe 2592 02:36:41,160 --> 02:36:44,910 for a week now. The workers who are demolishing the Sandy Hook 2593 02:36:44,910 --> 02:36:48,420 Elementary School at a cost of $50 million to build a new 2594 02:36:48,420 --> 02:36:52,650 school on the same site are required to sign confidentiality 2595 02:36:52,650 --> 02:37:02,190 agreements. Why? To protect the families? Of course. I know. 2596 02:37:03,510 --> 02:37:07,830 It's like it. Like this couldn't get any more annoying this whole 2597 02:37:07,920 --> 02:37:13,500 ordeal to they're not allowed to talk about what they find inside 2598 02:37:13,500 --> 02:37:15,090 when they're demolishing the place. 2599 02:37:18,060 --> 02:37:20,640 You mean like the microphones and cameras in the walls? 2600 02:37:22,470 --> 02:37:26,340 The confidential agreements are forbid public discussion of the 2601 02:37:26,340 --> 02:37:29,160 site photographs or disclosure of any information about the 2602 02:37:29,160 --> 02:37:33,330 building, where the so called Sandy Hook shooting took place. 2603 02:37:34,530 --> 02:37:39,060 Allegedly, because we haven't seen anything. No. I mean, it's 2604 02:37:39,060 --> 02:37:45,060 right there in the with the bin Laden pictures. And we haven't 2605 02:37:45,060 --> 02:37:48,450 seen that crazy medical examiner around either on what happened 2606 02:37:48,450 --> 02:37:49,680 in that guy. Remember the crazy guy, 2607 02:37:49,800 --> 02:37:52,290 he's got a movie deal? must 2608 02:37:53,760 --> 02:37:57,180 then this is kind of a red book, although we've I think we've 2609 02:37:57,420 --> 02:38:00,120 checked this off several times. But now the headline, by the 2610 02:38:00,120 --> 02:38:07,500 way. IBM's Watson wants to fix America's doctor shortage. As it 2611 02:38:07,500 --> 02:38:10,590 turns out, and this this, by the way is this is an old story 2612 02:38:10,590 --> 02:38:12,990 we've done enough, no, this is a little different. It's a little 2613 02:38:12,990 --> 02:38:17,220 different. This is because this kind of ties into the Affordable 2614 02:38:17,220 --> 02:38:22,110 Care Act. Now, as you know, and I know this many, many doctors 2615 02:38:22,110 --> 02:38:25,980 who are just being fired general pack practitioners, there's no 2616 02:38:25,980 --> 02:38:29,430 use for them. Everything's going to be done by your health care 2617 02:38:29,430 --> 02:38:34,260 provider. We've tracked this a long time here on the show. And 2618 02:38:34,260 --> 02:38:37,530 in fact, you will what you really get as registered nurses 2619 02:38:37,710 --> 02:38:40,830 and other administrative personnel who are going to put 2620 02:38:40,830 --> 02:38:45,570 bandages on you and subscribe, prescribe certain medication, 2621 02:38:45,720 --> 02:38:48,990 have one doc who just signs off on stuff, it's all going into 2622 02:38:48,990 --> 02:38:52,110 this, the general practitioners office is going into this kind 2623 02:38:52,110 --> 02:38:56,040 of automated mode, the only real money to be made is with 2624 02:38:56,040 --> 02:38:59,610 specialists. So anyone who's a general practitioner, you just 2625 02:38:59,610 --> 02:39:04,980 kind of out the hospitals are firing these guys and gals. This 2626 02:39:04,980 --> 02:39:08,760 story says that there should there will be as many as 45,000 2627 02:39:08,790 --> 02:39:14,880 primary care doctor shortage by 2020. But the idea is to have 2628 02:39:14,910 --> 02:39:23,970 IBM's Watson, do your diagnosis. This is a little new. And 2629 02:39:23,970 --> 02:39:27,000 they're and they're actually talking about a trial phase that 2630 02:39:27,000 --> 02:39:31,140 they've set up now. Where you go in you answer questions on the 2631 02:39:31,140 --> 02:39:33,330 computer, which of course you can do from the comfort of your 2632 02:39:33,330 --> 02:39:37,350 own home, and then Watson will just prescribe stuff for you. So 2633 02:39:37,350 --> 02:39:43,050 removing people altogether from the process. This is a little 2634 02:39:43,050 --> 02:39:44,970 new. So instead of 2635 02:39:45,000 --> 02:39:49,170 like the guys just sign off on the marijuana is a doctor you 2636 02:39:49,170 --> 02:39:51,480 know, you go to these conventions in California, the 2637 02:39:51,480 --> 02:39:55,170 marijuana pot thing or whatever and you go to a bunch of your 2638 02:39:55,470 --> 02:39:56,010 doctor 2639 02:39:56,040 --> 02:39:59,970 your diagnosis for for you. It's a freemium or what 2640 02:40:00,000 --> 02:40:03,000 Are you having what's what's the deal? So I'm having trouble 2641 02:40:03,000 --> 02:40:06,840 sleeping? For sure. Yeah, I got a sore throat up. Here you go, 2642 02:40:07,410 --> 02:40:09,630 Oh, I got these horrible headaches that won't go away. I 2643 02:40:09,630 --> 02:40:15,720 bet you Exactly, exactly. Okay, well, that's a nice depressing 2644 02:40:15,720 --> 02:40:16,440 piece of news. 2645 02:40:16,920 --> 02:40:21,600 No, well, that's. And then there was this big article, which to 2646 02:40:21,600 --> 02:40:25,800 me was new in Fast Company, which I think the the article, 2647 02:40:26,340 --> 02:40:29,520 or the interview was done a while ago, because this is about 2648 02:40:29,520 --> 02:40:33,150 23. And me. And I've been following this company. Yeah, 2649 02:40:33,150 --> 02:40:35,100 this is one of your pet peeves. Yeah, it is. This 2650 02:40:35,100 --> 02:40:39,120 is the it's the it's just math, everyone's DNA is going to save 2651 02:40:39,120 --> 02:40:42,150 your life. Now this, of course, is Sergey Brin, his wife, who I 2652 02:40:42,150 --> 02:40:44,550 believe is now ex wife, aren't they getting a divorce where 2653 02:40:44,550 --> 02:40:45,090 they're separate, 2654 02:40:45,510 --> 02:40:48,690 funded the younger woman. So this 2655 02:40:48,990 --> 02:40:53,370 story by Elizabeth Murphy, who took her adopted six year old 2656 02:40:53,370 --> 02:40:57,090 daughter, and made her do the DNA test. 2657 02:40:59,520 --> 02:41:02,610 And then she found that she was the spawn of Satan. 2658 02:41:03,570 --> 02:41:06,660 Well, it's, it's kind of crazy when you're reading through 2659 02:41:06,660 --> 02:41:13,500 this. So she talks about Sergey, and how Sergey has a 54% chance 2660 02:41:13,500 --> 02:41:19,500 of Parkinson's based upon her $99 test. And so you know, so 2661 02:41:19,500 --> 02:41:23,670 he's drinking coffee and exercising in between meetings. 2662 02:41:26,790 --> 02:41:32,430 Wow. Really. And but really the the idea, because now I 2663 02:41:32,430 --> 02:41:35,340 understand what this company is about, it's not about really 2664 02:41:35,340 --> 02:41:37,140 helping you. This is about scaring 2665 02:41:37,140 --> 02:41:42,900 that crap idea. Well, there's that 7580 90% chance maybe it 2666 02:41:42,900 --> 02:41:44,910 would be something you're trying to go for the 10. But it's a 2667 02:41:44,970 --> 02:41:46,320 5050. Toss up? 2668 02:41:46,440 --> 02:41:48,480 Well, I've been I've been reading up on a coin. I've been 2669 02:41:48,480 --> 02:41:50,640 reading a lot of medical 2670 02:41:50,640 --> 02:41:53,610 way. Just that to keep interrupting you, which I'm 2671 02:41:53,610 --> 02:41:58,170 doing now. If you look up, it's just math. It's like a meme. 2672 02:41:58,650 --> 02:42:01,500 It's just math. It's about Social Security. It's just math 2673 02:42:01,500 --> 02:42:04,650 is math. Yeah. It's just math, just math, just math. 2674 02:42:04,740 --> 02:42:08,460 It's just math. Well, the human genome is not just math, I hate 2675 02:42:08,460 --> 02:42:11,820 to tell you, because this thing, when did we decode this and 99, 2676 02:42:11,910 --> 02:42:12,810 the human genome, 2677 02:42:12,990 --> 02:42:18,420 early recent, we still know how it completely worked like 1516 2678 02:42:18,450 --> 02:42:23,490 years ago. And what this is a parlor trick, according to many 2679 02:42:23,490 --> 02:42:26,700 people who are familiar with with this guy know, if you want 2680 02:42:26,700 --> 02:42:29,670 to know some parlor tricks about yourself, that's great. But what 2681 02:42:29,670 --> 02:42:32,910 they're really doing as I read this article, it's like Twitter, 2682 02:42:33,570 --> 02:42:37,800 where they're taking your DNA information, they want to have a 2683 02:42:37,800 --> 02:42:44,040 lot of it, like 20 or 30 million samples of DNA. And then they're 2684 02:42:44,040 --> 02:42:48,690 going to start to say, Oh, now we can do big data. Right? This 2685 02:42:48,690 --> 02:42:52,230 is this is all throughout this whole article, big data. And 2686 02:42:52,230 --> 02:42:54,990 then we can figure out what really causes cancer. 2687 02:42:56,790 --> 02:42:59,190 And give us some money. Yeah, and this big 2688 02:42:59,190 --> 02:43:03,210 data thing I've got to tell you, the more I hear it, the more I 2689 02:43:03,210 --> 02:43:04,740 see. Yes, I'm 2690 02:43:04,740 --> 02:43:06,420 100%. with you on this one, 2691 02:43:06,450 --> 02:43:09,090 you're well, you're the one that kind of alerted it to me. And it 2692 02:43:09,090 --> 02:43:13,800 has gotten to the point now, where I find it a sport to see 2693 02:43:13,800 --> 02:43:20,130 what Amazon is recommending to me. It is really interesting. 2694 02:43:20,130 --> 02:43:24,360 They have no clue. They really do not know. I mean, yeah, they 2695 02:43:24,390 --> 02:43:28,110 they keep trying to get me to buy the diesel generator, which 2696 02:43:28,110 --> 02:43:30,180 I have, which I've looked at once and which I won't buy 2697 02:43:30,180 --> 02:43:32,100 because they're all made in China, even though they say 2698 02:43:32,100 --> 02:43:35,880 American power horse or whatever on it. That's the only thing 2699 02:43:35,880 --> 02:43:38,970 they know how to do. They can do that. They send you the email, 2700 02:43:38,970 --> 02:43:41,820 like oh, you looked at this, look at it again. And that 2701 02:43:41,820 --> 02:43:42,750 sometimes works. 2702 02:43:42,929 --> 02:43:47,969 My recommendation is if you can somehow get on somebody else's 2703 02:43:47,969 --> 02:43:51,659 computer and go to Amazon and hope that it auto loads with 2704 02:43:51,659 --> 02:43:55,649 their account, which it tends to do start looking at weird crap. 2705 02:43:55,889 --> 02:44:00,299 Plastic dildos. Look up all these crazy things that are just 2706 02:44:00,299 --> 02:44:03,539 nuts. And then from then on, every time they go anywhere, 2707 02:44:03,539 --> 02:44:06,899 they're gonna get these ads. No, no, it's everywhere. By the way, 2708 02:44:06,899 --> 02:44:07,079 there's 2709 02:44:07,230 --> 02:44:10,170 just worse because you get the dildo ads when you're on just 2710 02:44:10,170 --> 02:44:11,580 any old site that has like, Yeah, 2711 02:44:12,030 --> 02:44:13,770 I'm saying that's kind 2712 02:44:13,770 --> 02:44:16,050 of cool. Yeah, dildo ads. 2713 02:44:17,100 --> 02:44:21,210 Yeah, you'd be so you go to some regular, some Reddit site and a 2714 02:44:21,210 --> 02:44:25,170 dildo as will start popping up. While you're there is a great 2715 02:44:25,170 --> 02:44:26,340 gag to play on someone. 2716 02:44:27,270 --> 02:44:32,370 I guess the only thing I want to say is that I'm kind of on board 2717 02:44:32,370 --> 02:44:36,480 with this is just a parlor trick. And I actually I was 2718 02:44:36,480 --> 02:44:39,300 talking to the Voodoo doctor about this yesterday. You know, 2719 02:44:39,300 --> 02:44:44,700 the applied kinesiology or guy acupuncture guy. Yeah, I see him 2720 02:44:44,700 --> 02:44:49,530 every six weeks and I'm I'm I'm feeling good. I'm not sick in 2721 02:44:49,530 --> 02:44:49,950 bed. 2722 02:44:51,210 --> 02:44:53,850 But he says, You have caught what she has. 2723 02:44:53,939 --> 02:44:58,799 A lot of people come to him with their 23 and me printouts and he 2724 02:44:58,799 --> 02:45:04,589 says throw it out. And he said, Your DNA is not your destiny is 2725 02:45:04,709 --> 02:45:07,829 is the quote, he says, you know, all you're going to do is if if 2726 02:45:07,829 --> 02:45:10,529 someone tells you, you have this gene and you actually have this 2727 02:45:10,529 --> 02:45:13,199 gene, and you're thinking about this gene, you're going to 2728 02:45:13,199 --> 02:45:15,419 activate it. This is, 2729 02:45:15,990 --> 02:45:21,660 well, I don't want to get on board with that. It's possible 2730 02:45:22,110 --> 02:45:24,600 that if you're preoccupied I mean, this is the old trick with 2731 02:45:24,600 --> 02:45:28,830 motorcycle riding. When you're driving around on a cycle it 2732 02:45:28,830 --> 02:45:31,680 same thing with cars, but to a lesser extent, although they did 2733 02:45:31,710 --> 02:45:34,350 car when you were the race driver there and you're racing 2734 02:45:34,350 --> 02:45:38,160 around, they tell you to do similar things, is if you look 2735 02:45:38,220 --> 02:45:41,550 if you're on a you're coming down a dirt road and a bike, and 2736 02:45:41,550 --> 02:45:45,330 you're genuine worried about this huge boulder. That is right 2737 02:45:45,330 --> 02:45:48,180 there. If you look at the boulder, 2738 02:45:48,210 --> 02:45:52,710 you will crash into it. Yeah, you will crash into it. Exactly. 2739 02:45:52,740 --> 02:45:53,010 Look 2740 02:45:53,550 --> 02:45:55,950 to the side of the either side of the boulder and you 2741 02:45:55,950 --> 02:45:58,590 concentrate on that spot, you will zoom past the boulder. 2742 02:45:58,590 --> 02:46:02,340 It's, it's and it always happens. So when you're focused 2743 02:46:02,340 --> 02:46:05,250 on something in this case, you're preoccupied with your 2744 02:46:05,250 --> 02:46:09,600 genetic mishap. It may be just like the boulder you may 2745 02:46:09,720 --> 02:46:12,210 actually it may be true. Maybe the guys riding you could 2746 02:46:12,330 --> 02:46:14,820 possibly at least you're thinking about it too much. 2747 02:46:15,090 --> 02:46:19,590 Yeah. 55 So I will agree based on my folder, and 2748 02:46:19,920 --> 02:46:23,070 well then, you know, like the 54% and all that stuff. It's 2749 02:46:23,070 --> 02:46:23,970 just insane. 2750 02:46:25,320 --> 02:46:29,160 Yeah, we should put in the Red Book. Sergey will get 2751 02:46:29,640 --> 02:46:34,620 Parkinson's just put it right in. Yeah. Put it in. Good to go. 2752 02:46:35,640 --> 02:46:38,520 All right. I'm gonna say this other stuff. I got some common 2753 02:46:38,520 --> 02:46:41,370 core stuff. We'll save that for for Sunday. I'm going to have 2754 02:46:41,550 --> 02:46:46,980 quite a Oh, you also want to do the we'll do the podcast patent 2755 02:46:46,980 --> 02:46:48,060 thing we'll do that Sunday. 2756 02:46:48,570 --> 02:46:52,710 All right, the podcast, Pat. Well, yeah, it's been fun. Yeah, 2757 02:46:52,710 --> 02:46:55,020 cuz I wanted that's what I sent you a note about? Because I want 2758 02:46:55,020 --> 02:46:59,520 you to because you're the expert on podcasting and patents. I'm 2759 02:46:59,520 --> 02:47:00,690 pretty good on patents too. 2760 02:47:01,980 --> 02:47:05,640 I want to hear about this podcast patent situation. 2761 02:47:05,670 --> 02:47:09,960 Yeah. Well, I pretty much I can just say this that my name is 2762 02:47:09,960 --> 02:47:13,860 not mentioned anywhere in any of the documentation. Nor is Dave 2763 02:47:13,860 --> 02:47:18,450 Winer. This is this, this is the idiocy of not only the patent 2764 02:47:18,450 --> 02:47:24,810 system, but of people who feel they need to defend something, 2765 02:47:25,350 --> 02:47:29,700 which really does no one any good. You know, other than just 2766 02:47:29,700 --> 02:47:33,300 like, Yeah, we got to do another lawsuit and other people paid 2767 02:47:33,300 --> 02:47:37,080 for it. It's to me the whole thing is a waste of energy. But 2768 02:47:37,080 --> 02:47:39,840 I do want to get into it and explain it. So I'll be happy to 2769 02:47:39,840 --> 02:47:40,800 do that on Sunday. 2770 02:47:42,720 --> 02:47:45,870 A winner Yeah, 2771 02:47:45,930 --> 02:47:50,550 a winner for sure. All right. What did I have your head 2772 02:47:52,410 --> 02:47:57,240 and done? Yeah, I think 2773 02:47:57,240 --> 02:47:59,820 we're done too. I have like the I want maybe this ISS thing will 2774 02:47:59,820 --> 02:48:03,090 just be nice. Just International Space Station quick. 20 seconds 2775 02:48:03,090 --> 02:48:03,360 World 2776 02:48:03,360 --> 02:48:06,420 Pictures from the International Space Station, the astronauts 2777 02:48:06,420 --> 02:48:10,650 saw a strange and unexpected view out there windows.

Not sure what it was, but the cloud had left 2780 02:48:16,950 --> 02:48:20,160 behind was pretty amazing. And boy, is he right? Turns out it 2781 02:48:20,160 --> 02:48:23,520 was a plume from a Russian military missile tests. No. 2782 02:48:23,520 --> 02:48:23,820 Yeah, 2783 02:48:23,910 --> 02:48:30,900 space wars.
