You wrote it down and you didn't catch yourself. Adam curry, John
C. Dvorak and stuff April 24 2015. Time for your Gitmo
nation media assassination episode 715.
This is no agenda exonerated by a man broadcasting
live from the crackpot condo and FEMA Region six in the capital
to go and start state in the morning everybody I'm Adam curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley where the trucks very slowly go
up the road wasting nothing but fuel. I'm John C. Dvorak.
What, are you still in earthday mode or something?
Well, it seems to me that when you have a all these local
governments for example, in the Berkeley area, they they take
nice four lane roads that keep traffic moving, and then they
make it a two lane road with two bike lanes that nobody uses. And
so now that traffic gets all backed up and just wastes fuel
because you're just sitting there
so really, it's an underhanded slam at the bike lanes.
Yes. And by the way, yes, I you know, I haven't really gone on
one of my recent rants but these guys you know, this bikers when
all these privileges you think they follow the rules of the
road, they never stop at stop signs. They go through
intersections they're on the wrong side of the road going the
wrong way they're up and then on the sidewalks and then off the
sidewalks This is ridiculous.
The only thing that bothers me really about the bicycle culture
in America and Austin right now downtown is all broken up all
construction because we're building bike lanes and nice
ones to bike lanes with with a high curb to protect the bike
lane. is they don't have bells this this this is so baffling to
me this is the number one you buy a bike in that even if you
steal a bike in Holland right which is normal your bike gets
stolen. I need a bike I go steal someone else's bike it's kind of
a circle of life.
Yeah, it says all based on Nazi philosophy. Yeah, precisely.
You The only thing you will have is you will have your own Bell
you will buy a bell so you can ding people as your it's a
warning system. It's really good instead of who that is what I
don't like I just got a belt
that's interesting. Now I never noticed this but you're
absolutely correct nobody has a belt and they don't even have
the little they used to when I was a kid we had little horns oh
boy oh boy yeah you little horns and no bells and horns and bells
warning some girls they did help you know the safety but no these
guys have no horns no bells no light lights around at night
expecting that you to see them based on a reflector
they might have in in Amsterdam or in the Netherlands
so extremely area they you know you wonder why these guys get
run down and they bitch
I got run down. Get them you need a light and you need a
light in the back as well. I see people with big headlights when
you need to light in the back and you need a bell if you don't
have a working bell in the Netherlands you can get a fine
and rightly so.
Nobody has a bell here at all. Nobody has him I know and they
drive like maniacs it's ridiculous and then you have the
one that creepy one which is going down the road and on the
other side of the road. You see this very it's like a small
headlamp it's way up in the air on its head yeah.
And they all have helmets by the way that we've got a helmet so
not only are you dangerous but you look dumb.
So you have a helmet with a light and when you're looking
around what you do the headlights looking around like
like somebody's got a flashlight way up in the air in the in the
lane where the cars go. You're going what's going on?
All right. All right. All right. people tuning in for the first
time. This is not what the show is not representative of the
program. Yes it is. You said something after the show on
Sunday. If you don't have get what it was you were looking at
some pictures and you said oh you've got a douche bag beard.
Which I do not I bothers you. Yes. Because I don't have a
douchebag beard. I have scruff. Yeah, scruff and I
don't get what tell me the difference because when I see
you know the classic that you know who these guys are, we know
and I'm proud of them. Firstly,
I'm going to make a point here because so I don't have the
douchebag but I have a little bit of scruff which used to be
known as the Don Johnson look. Do you remember that when Miami
Vice first came out and Braun started selling Miami Vice
Shavers to get Don Johnson look well, I couldn't really grow
beard back then. But now I know now I have facial hair. And I
was talking to Christina about this because there's a lot of
these real douchebag beard dudes running around Austin and they
usually accompanied by they have a total cut workout body that
wearing cut off shorts
or jeans look more gay
couldn't look more gay. And like what is it with the beard and
she You said, beards are push up bras for men. And only a woman
could can say this. I wouldn't a dream that one. No, no. It's
like some little extra flavor crystal that women apparently
are really into it these days
at the acid during this this moment in history, it will pass.
Yeah, it's like the Yeah, this guy was working. When I was
working in public radio. There's this guy that was in the studio
that was a sound engineer. And he also out of the blue. He
comes in one week, and he's got a soul patch a Yeah. And there
was enough men in the room at the time. Who were Why don't
what is wrong with you. So they all gave him he finally admitted
that it was his girlfriend that demanded he grow this thing
because she thought it was cool. And we just we went into
ridicule mode, which a group of men will do, right when
something is not, you know, if it was somebody famous with the
soul patch, we probably wouldn't have the guts to do this. But we
ridicule them to any cut it off and ever grow back.
And then of course, we always have the Movember where everyone
has to shave off their mustache or their all their facial hair
as a form of Movember combined. This has been going on for a
couple as long as beards have been growing in popularity.
This personally, oh, well over of Movember.
I'm sure there's a book of knowledge entry for it. In fact,
when we take Movember and let's see, as we bring up the wikis,
we in Movember, there you go. It is oh, it's for as cancer
Movember for as cancer, sometimes known as prostate
cancer. annual event involving the growing of muscle. I'm
sorry, I'm sorry, I have it the wrong way around. It's the
growing of mustaches. So you're supposed to grow the mustache?
What do I know? Well, you're
way off on now. I
was I was. Alright. Observation. Now I for at least three, almost
three years did not have a smartphone. I carried my Nokia
II 71. Around the old clunker, your classic I lost it. Yeah,
you lost. It's gone. I know where but I can't really tell
you. All right, the yellow rose.
Those girls they probably stolen, like looking
antique.
Why don't you get this phone for an iPhone? How
old was that guy. But I have to say I don't understand how
anyone gets anything done. So now I have a smartphone, which
I primarily use our phone on and off forever. But I
probably well, but I primarily needed it for Uber because you
can't really do Uber on an iPod Touch. Or sometimes the guy
needs to call you. And if you don't have a connection, then
you don't need lots of stuff. So you need one. As a single guy, I
think you kind of need one. But oh my goodness. And this, this
texting, which is the same as messaging. Oh, this is a very
troubling troubling things going on in society. John,
push the microphone button,
thank you or call me. But so I have. So on the iPhone, you have
the message app, which not only it will once you receive a
message from someone through the 1030 SMS system, then if if it's
an iPhone, it will then convert that into a message path that
goes through the Apple servers. And then I've also noticed you
you can use an email address to just send something this is a
big problem, by the way. So if you have the message app, you
can send it to an email address and of course I'm saying this
now everyone's gonna fucking do this to me. And then it pops up
where your your SMS would pop up and SMS where I come from, is
you know, that's what Hey, this is a short message. This is
something that was a kid Yeah, look at this now. But now this
is being abused. With also with the the no limitation on 140
characters, which is where the Twitter limitation came from.
And it's and people just had this ongoing conversation
ongoing. And then and then there's loads not just messages
dates that Facebook a guy from the 20s the Facebook Messenger
and we have WhatsApp and we have telegram and signal and a
million different endo I'm on this. And but the somehow we've
gotten into this it's okay to just be messaging back and forth
and, and to me it's I don't know what to do because if I don't
reply, I think to myself I will maybe maybe this person thinks
you know I I don't want to I hate them because I'm not
replying or you go back and forth three times. And then I
say
you're wrong on every one of these items. First of all, I use
messaging a lot. And I, but my phone is off. Most of the time.
I don't carry the phone around all with me all the time, I
usually turn it off because I don't, I don't feel like taking
the walk upstairs to plug it into the USB port to charge it's
right, turn it off and downstairs and leave it there.
And I can be off for days. I may not use the phone forever. I get
I turn it on. And there's a bunch of messages and I, you
know, that could be days old. And then I will say yeah, no, I
will answer the code. And you said yeah, no, no, no. No, no.
I, you say yeah. And you say no. And on the messages, okay, I'll
do this. I'll do that. And you just come in two or three days
later, then people say, Oh, that guy. He's not. He's not. He's a
slow messenger. No, he's a douchebag. No, nobody thinks
I text you so many times. And I've given up like, and then two
days later, I'll get you texted me. What was this about? Well, I
don't know. Man, you were live on some show. And I was texting
you with correct information? Because you look like a doofus?
No. How about on the way home? When did like just No, no, two
days later with you? Two days, we have it
as your solution. You don't hear me complaining? Right? You feel
obliged? You
know, I'm trying? No, no, no, John, this is not about me. I'm
trying to point something out that to when all these people
you see, I make these observations. I know you do as
well. And wherever, wherever you are, if there's a cluster of
people, they're all head down doing something. And the
something they're doing is messaging back and forth. And I
don't understand how this is detrimental to the economy.
Oh, I agree with that. And bad. By the way, what you're
mentioning is you're gonna bring up that complaint. And I always
find it annoying to see this when somebody's so engrossed on
their phone. But why does Hillary on her Twitter page have
her little individual picture of her looking at her phone, and
the big artwork across the top of her page is got her looking
at her phone? Yeah, now, I'm guessing somebody in the public
relations department said, You look, you're gonna look young
and hip. Yeah, being on the phone, looking at your phone. So
there's not a picture of a smiling Hillary looking out at
the camera or anything else. There's a picture of her on her
phone texting. on her Twitter,
I believe this is also a bit of a callback because it's her
Blackberry, where you'll recall, when Barack Obama was Senator
Barack Obama was running for president, this was going to be
the cyber connected president, this was going to be the guy he
has got a Blackberry and he's gonna use it. I believe it's a
callback to that, like, here's, here's someone who really knows
how to use a Blackberry. And when she uses it, people die.
And she has her own server. She's that smart.
Man, that bit should be President, I'm telling you, I
pray.
But whatever the case, said, I caught myself.
You said it in the newsletter.
i Well, it's not in there now. Oh, you
took it out. Okay. It's so bad that when you wrote
down whatever the case it didn't, because that newsletter
produced almost nothing. And when
you put when you wrote down for the newsletter in your draft,
and John always sends me the draft for spelling mistakes and
stuff, which I also don't catch all of them. But you wrote
whatever the case you wrote it, you wrote it down and you didn't
catch yourself.
I expected you to catch it. I rely on you my friend. So there
is a new era straight and narrow.
I want to identify a new self moral licensing meme that is
taking place we will soon be enveloped in this and it's a bad
one. Now to explain the a the ALS challenge the ice bucket
challenge. And I don't remember what episode that was, but I'll
I'll I'll look for it. And you should probably if not listened
to that episode can find no agenda player.com Someone can
probably find the exact link where we start talking about it.
Many studies have been done on the concept of moral self
licensing, where you do something like change your
Twitter icon, or you know, you say, Dan, those guys whatever it
is, or you do an ice bucket challenge and you're done. And
then you've you've given yourself moral license to no
longer do anything else for charity. Certainly not for that
charity or maybe any other charitable giving. Just don't do
when you've done your part on your bit. The new one, the new
challenge is eating a lime for Lyme disease. And it's hilarious
because you see people put a lime in their mouth.
I wouldn't call it this by now I haven't seen this just started
and I know why you haven't found it because it started with Ryan
Seacrest. I set this up says Why believe it will get legs? No he
does have They were the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, the
Yolanda Foster, the the Dutch girl whose woman who was married
to the Peter foster the songwriting musician.
I have no idea who you're trying to Frank Foster.
Well, he wrote a million hits for
Barbra Streisand. It is what she's in Beverly Hills High
School housewives shows I don't
know, but I'm just telling you, she has Lyme disease. And so
they've started off and they're they're getting all of this
going and I think it'll have it'll get legs and because it's
so funny to eat limes has
nothing to do with lie No, no like a lime David Foster. And
secondly, from now on Fred Foster, straight citric acid at
the level of concentration in a lime or anything but a Meyer
lemon is so high that it actually attacks the enamel the
enamel of your teeth and is not good for you.
Great then we can have another moral self licensing which is
save the enamel or whatever.
This is not going to I'm pretty I'm putting in the Red Book.
This is not going to catch on.
Okay. I believe a Ryan Seacrest has the jewel No, it
got on if Leo does it.
Well, well, Leo was catching on. But you know what I hate? And I
do it all the time. Yeah, no. Yeah. No, I just for mazing
you know, he was I did his show.
Yeah, the where I won. I won the bet. You won
the bet. Ah, explain which was was annoying. I can't remember
what the bet was.
The bet was I said the new the new secret would be destroying
savers screens. showstoppers. showstoppers. showstoppers.
That's a great that is our new show. Show stop.
We were just chatting as a bunch of people. There was an
anniversary show and was not and he said something that was so
new to the no agenda show meme fast. Yeah, one of our analysis
and he's just kind of drops it in Egypt. I don't know that he
knew he was doing it. Because when he's trying to needle me,
he's, I can tell he has a certain way about him. But he
just kind of mentioned something. And he got it from
the show. He listens to the show.
He's a liar. Yeah, he lives of course he listens. Yeah.
We'll see what we're up to. He wants to see we mentioned him,
but is it last mentioned? Are we had a lot of interesting news
stories. This Yes, we did some some good stuff. A couple of
minor stories that I think are just kind of stupid. I don't
know if they're part of the cluster or what the deal is. But
we can play this clip, which is the dumb fucks tried to join
ISIL which I thought was just
six minutes that a man will face trial, allegedly trying to join
the Islamic State group. They were already
zamak State group. What is this is g
for is called the Allama. Islamic State group. It's a it's
a consulting firm Islamic State.
No it's not. They were arrested yesterday on terror charges in
Minneapolis and San Diego in St. Paul. Today. The US Attorney for
Minnesota Andrew lugar said the Sikhs were of Somali backgrounds
and had been conspiring for 10 months. And nothing
stopped these defendants from pursuing their goal. Not that
they never stopped plotting another way to get to Syria to
join ISIL. They were not confused young men. They were
not easily influenced. These are focused men who are intent on
joining a terrorist organization by any means possible.
Federal prosecutors say the Islamic State group began
recruiting in Somali community in Minnesota in 2013.
If messaging
if i As if I S is the Islamic State group is a consulting
group, then wait till you hear what ISIS is. Bill Clinton did a
little speech. And I was floored.
These are things we need to be thinking about in America as we
work to restore broad based prosperity, as we work to define
our role in a world of competition from new and
different forces to define the future. Arguably the most
interesting, non governmental organization today, which proves
the importance of inclusion by its shortcomings, but as
formidable is ISIS.
Oh, wait, wait, wait for it.
Day right off the bat for that. Yeah, I'll
finish it and then I'll take the Clip of the Day.
ISIS. ISIS is a terrorist organization, an NGO?
It's a desert topping and the floor wax. ISIS is a terrorist
organization and a non governmental organization and
you gotta love it.
I don't know where to get that. That's an hour. Somebody said it
popped
up. It popped up this morning. about 15 minutes before we
started,
that is an outstanding clip. Because what he's, what he's
saying is interesting, because in the back of his mind, he
knows that all the 10 most NGOs, at least are terrorist
organizations or terrorist organizations. They're the ones
behind the the Arab Spring. They're the ones behind the
Ukrainian mess.
Yeah. How about Egypt? Egypt, Egypt,
Egypt. And let's be very good. I got it.
How about in Russia, Russia, kicked them all out the NGOs,
kick them
out wisely. And so as Venezuela, because they're always you're
trying to
I'd like what you said there, because when you reverse
engineer his thinking, that's why it comes out like that. And
I think he is sad, because it's not something to be joked with.
But I think he has the onset of dementia. This is this is insane
for him to say, and for the audience to just sit and go is
an NGO. Watch. And it's funny, because I went to GuideStar. You
know, me, and there must be a million ISIS 5013 C corpse, with
ISIS in the name. And I mean, there's not a million but
there's at least 500 I didn't have time to go through them all
in the time that I had left. But maybe ISIS has an actual maybe
they aren't in who knows? Maybe they do have a nonprofit
status. A couple of things about these boneheads that went the
other Somali and from Minnesota must be freezing their asses off
up there. A couple things I wanted to kind of discuss. First
of all, it less we've declared war. The Congress has declared
war. And we haven't done that since World War Two. Why can't
these guys go over there? If they feel like it? They're
Americans or citizens if they want to travel to Syria and go
play games with these clowns?
You know the answer. When you make a problem, citizen, are you
part of ISIS citizen? What's your problem? Citizen?
There's, I don't see it. I in fact, I believe if they had good
lawyers, they would get off of these charts.
salutely. Absolutely.
It's now another thing about these guys, I don't have the
clip of it. But they I think it was on Democracy Now that
apparently, for some reason, they have been bugging these
guys Fallens I guess for the last year, which I don't know
how they made this decision, like the cursor, just bug
everyone's phones. And the one guy says to the other, he says,
Okay, well, we got to be really careful this time, because you
know, we've made a lot of dumb decisions.
Well, we have, let's talk about this for a moment, because I ran
across a video presentation, which was done earlier this
week, at the RSA Conference. I don't know much about RSA is an
organization other than they they maintain security products
and encryption stuff. And can you tell me exactly what the RSA
is?
Well, I've been to their there's conventions that they have. And
I'm well hung out with the orig, the guy who founded the company,
I've hung out with him. And biz DOS, you get somebody very
named, unpronounceable Is that his name is dos. It's, it's,
it's, I'd have to look it up. But it's this funny last name,
anyway. Well, yeah. But they are a they started off as a security
company selling products, encryption products a lot,
mostly. And they've somehow become so involved with the
government. And I don't know, well, yes, that government
company
that Well, that makes a lot of sense, because who was
presenting our buddy, the the trigger man himself, the man who
used to say, yeah, you can kill that American citizen with a
drone. Go for it. Joe Johnson. Oh, and he calls himself J. But
when you spell it je s your Jo. Jo Johnson.
And by the way, when I went to the meet with these, you're hung
out without actually went to one of the parties, and hung out
with a bunch of these high end security guys. And I'm by high
end, I mean, high and to the point where they say, Well, you
again, you can't really use a yes, to fit the say, and they
tell you all these, what the government has done to get a
package to approve it, and they've slipped back, they
recode it and then you're supposed to use it as is and it
was pretty corrupt. It sounds to me like the whole encryption
world is corrupt with backdoors except for a couple of systems,
which you can't even get a hold of that are used by the Swiss
banks.
Well, I think that some this is a very important speech about 20
minutes, of course, chop this down in some some chunks,
although the second clip is a little longer. But here's what I
believe is happening. There is of course, all kinds of
infighting amongst the intelligence agencies. We've
discussed this many times. It's CIA versus NSA, FBI versus CIA
and a And, of course, Comey, who was a, you know, a crime fighter
as a prosecutor in New York City, he's the director of the
FBI, James Comey. Known for incredible coup when it comes to
locking up very dangerous criminals.
You mean like Martha Stewart, that would
be the one. And he was a director of HSBC the bank during
the rate scandal around, also overlapping with the money
laundering drug money. And that guy is so dumb when it comes to
anything really that he is supposed to know about. And he
has that weird habit of going mumbling under his breath.
They've given lengthy is great. So here's what I see happening.
Johnson got put in. And by the way, he's out in 2016. This is a
short term thing. So they bring in the trigger, man, I believe
he is in there. And the way I understand his little talk here,
all cyber belong to DHS, then he is the man and everything is
going to be flowing through it and go over. No, but let's
listen first of all, so he doesn't have a tie on. I cut out
the long winded joke. Because it was it fell so flat. But just so
you know, he's he thinks I'm in Silicon Valley. I'm gonna be hip
for all the hip kids up here. I'm not gonna wear a tie.
Good morning. How's everybody doing? Come on. Can we do a
little better? Please? A little more audience participation.
How's everybody doing? All right. Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you for inviting me here today. I'm very excited to
address this Cyber Conference, the largest one in the world.
I'm so excited. That to get into the swing of things, I am not
wearing a tie unrecognizable to my staff today.
I did leave it in I guess. It's not the biggest in the world
because the biggest and the largest in the world was just in
The Hague. So he's full of crap. All right. Here is this is kind
of a lot of this is introduced interesting blips and blobs. But
here's the I'm gonna straighten to the longer clip about well,
of course, we know what the mission is cyber terror, we need
to be sharing information with companies.
Cybersecurity is a major priority for my boss, President
Obama.
Now, arguably, you work for us, but I'll let you slide. I just
didn't like the way he said it. You know what I mean? My boss,
Barack Obama,
just irked me. Yeah, he works for the public. Yeah, he reports
to the president, but he works for us. So I don't know if
the government has long since given up on Oh, yeah, remember
that? Yeah,
it is a major priority for his entire administration. It is a
top priority for the Department of Homeland Security. For me
personally as secretary, advancing the department's
cybersecurity mission is one of my top goals. In office, though
I still use an iPad, I am learning. Now.
Though someone wrote this, either he wrote the joke
himself, but it really shows how clueless the guy is what the f
does an iPod have to do with anything? If he had said I still
use dos or something, something but an iPod? How does that
remotely mean that you're learning anything to
do with anything? It's like it's like out of the blue saying,
he's an idiot. Oh, Dr. Phil, Dr. Nash Rambler.
But it's not an iPod is not even remotely related. Right? It's
not if he said, I still have a flip phone or something,
anything but that so he must be writing this himself. And it was
stupid, and it makes him look stupid. And immediately all
credibility is gone. And you can see the audience.
You go up there and self deprecating yourself like that?
Well, it's been of a group like this. He just wants to be the
head of an operation. In the end,
you'll see he's trying to get something from them.
The Department of Homeland Security was formed in 2002. In
the wake of the terrorist attack on 911. Counterterrorism is the
cornerstone of my department's mission. But the reality is that
in 2015, cybersecurity has become a mission of equal
importance.
Hey, man, first of all, wow. So cybersecurity is just as bad as
terrorism. Okay, hello, military industrial complex, pay
attention, pay attention, money Bonanza, money bonanza. My
message
to you today is this government does not have all the answers,
nor do we have all the talent by any means. He's also recruiting.
You see, cybersecurity must be a partnership between government
and those of you in the private sector.
So Are who made that up? Cybersecurity must be a
partnership between government and you in the private sector.
No. Fascism must be a collaboration between the
government and industry. corporatism. But cybersecurity,
no,
we need each other. And we must work together. No, there are
things government can do for you. And there are fans in jail.
Did you to do for us,
frankly, oh, he hasn't asked he hasn't asked later on.
In private law practice, where I've spent most of my
professional life. I was a service provider.
I serve as Martha Stewart to jail to private clients. Sorry,
I bring that attitude to cybersecurity service make doozy
asterik and proud about the direction our department is
headed in cybersecurity.
Stop stop if he's proud and this and that. He's already admitted
that he's an iPod user. He's doesn't know anything now. So
how can he continue the speech at all? He's already
disqualified himself to give the rest of the speech. Well, he
did it because he knew that the no agenda show needed to have
some content.
We get plenty of content, not like is we're just getting
rolling
ship of Undersecretary Suzanne Spaulding and Deputy
Undersecretary Phyllis Schneck, the former chief technology
officer at in at McAfee. Ah, there you go.
So the people leading the cybersecurity charge, right and
the revolving door between the virus companies and the
government, as we've always said,
we're building an agile and responsive cybersecurity
capability. Wait for it, you're gonna flip. The Department of
Homeland Security is the US government's central interface
with the private sector in responding to and mitigating
cyber threats.
This is important jump the Department of Homeland Security.
They're the interface DHS don't talk to NSA, don't talk to FBI
don't talk to the CIA.
We're also responsible for the security of the federal
civilian.gov world.
What they didn't understand that the federal civilian is it
doesn't mean contractors.
The DoD would
I think federal civilian,
said he said federal, federal, civilian or
federal civilian.gov world.gov Which world
is some of those organizations that get that do use.gov?
I think that CIA isn't see I wouldn't when you're CIA and the
Pentagon, its civilian in the Pentagon.
Maybe well, we'll have to work I didn't think about
it means everybody, I think just just report to
him but anyone who can use.gov Or is allowed to that have
something to do with that central
to our efforts is our National Cybersecurity and Communications
Integration Center. Also known as the N kick
thank God we have an acronym and k n can kick and kill that.
Well, the acronym is NCI CC, and NCI
CC, but he says N kick like kick butt,
but well he kind of muffles it but n kick he says it's m kicks
the acronym. Thank you.
Thank you and kick is a busy place of representatives from
many federal government agencies as well as the private sector
and kick floor
on the N kick floor that listen for Florida that Oh, yeah.
You're kind of it's a raised floor like a trading room with
all the wires going into the datacenter. That's what he says
when he when he talked about the floor.
In fiscal year 2014. Alone, the end kick received over 97,000
Cyber Incident Reports. private and government sectors my
my Facebook won't load 97 Hey, man, my email seems to be
blocked
an issue nearly 12,000 Cyber alerts or warnings,
cyber alerts 12,000 Where can I Well, he's actually going to
explain where you can find them later. Although then he
announced this but they're not anywhere on their data Gubser
website
almost continually. And then kick team is in the field in the
field making what is in effect a house call house call. They're
like doctors on accompany to assess a significant cyber
incident and helping them to fix it.
Hello, we're from end kick making a house call
these new show on TV and kick in and kick making a house call.
You know, it's funny by the NK NCIC. See Is that what it is
NCIC? Yeah, it also stands for the National Coalition for the
International Criminal Court the Nigerian Coalition for the
International
no one check the acronym machine add a bunch of stupid
and would use NC ICC has too many legs, the same people who
came
up with ISIS as
for certain diagnosis sees bring in more doctors, more doctors.
What the hell? What stopped this Jimmie Johnson? You make me
crazy. iPod doctors. Fuck you. Sorry. That's the Tourette's but
that's that's insane. We bring
in more doctors from the NSA, the FBI or other agencies to
why not just a technical experts, but Dr. Shut up, I'll
shut up
the end kick identifies numerous vulnerabilities last year across
dozens and dozens of departments and agencies of the US
government identified 265 instances of the Heartbleed
vulnerability.
Oh, let me see SSH minus V. Oh, it's an old version that we've
discovered a vulnerability we're really good. This is where this
guy is just he is a nincompoop. And a
three week period, we reduce them to just two o
grade. Let's let me see lpm dash you SSH. Thank you so much for
upgrading my SSH.
Last year we help the private government sectors address.
He actually says government he says government. Oh, he's a
Republican. He's a Republican. He says government last year we
helped the private government unnecessary government when he
said government,
the private government sector is Shellshock, black energy, have X
black off point of sale, back off point of sale, Lobos fish
and other vulnerabilities. My goal is to see the end kick move
to an even higher and better level. Alright, so
now I'm waiting to see some more of these. The guy is clearly in
charge of cyber. And he needs to he's now got all kinds of cool
things going on. And he is reporting. He's not only
ingesting but reporting on cyber vulnerabilities, and listen to
what he describes here. It's one of the most beautiful
descriptions of the protocol I've ever heard.
We are enabling the Ag tech to provide near real time automated
information sharing to the private sector. I have directed
our team to go full throttle on this. As you know, cybersecurity
is all about speed.
No, I would disagree. I think cybersecurity is about human
intelligence, helping people understand how they can get
tricked. It's not all about speed. In fact, sometimes you
want to be very slow and take your time reading the email.
Last week the N kick deployed the capability to automate
publication of cyber threat indicators in a machine readable
format. Oh, whoa,
call Dave Winer. They've made an RSS feed.
We reached this major milestone five weeks ahead of the
deadline.
It took him five weeks to put an RSS feed together. This is
insane. Does anyone in the audience go Hey, dude, you know,
you can, you can get little apps and stuff that could make an RSS
feed for you. Today, we'll
find him on the libraries.
This is what this is what he's describing an RSS feed
ahead of the deadline. Today, we are sharing indicators with an
initial set of companies and are in the process of adding others.
Later this year, we'll be in a position to begin to accept
cyber threat indicators from the private sector in automated near
time. Format,
near time format, okay, you bought your own words douche. So
you will be able to have an RSS feed readers is very good. I'm
very impressed, Jaya. And I wonder if that has anything to
do with YouTube's change with their RSS feeds, you can now and
you can still get RSS from them. But you now have to go through
their new API and the new authorization scheme. I would
think that that that is the the occurrence of that change in the
speech is a little too close to be coincident near real time
format, real time form real time format
near real time. Let's get that straight.
Correct because it's an aggregator. So it's not exactly
in real time. But it's an it's an aggregator. This is he's
describing an RSS feed aggregator we
have set up the end kick as your primary pathway to provide
cyberthreat indicators sharing to the US government. Thank you.
Yes, the government is trying to make it easier for you.
Just to give all your start to give all your users information
to us.
Today, I'm pleased to announce that the Department of Homeland
Security is also finalizing plans to open up a satellite
office in Silicon Valley. Yeah, to serve as another point of
contact with our friends here.
Your friends, our friends, come on over and let's talk a little
bit we'll have coffee in the NK Kim.
In cafeteria kicked lounge Yeah,
we want to strengthen critical relationships in the Silicon
Valley and ensure that the government and the private
sector benefits From each other's research and
development,
okay, please people. And you'll hear some other gotchas in a
minute. He is literally saying, share the data you have with
your customers or abusers, I should say, because they're not
customers, the advertiser the customers, share that with us,
and you'll benefit will give you something back or who knows. But
when they say data, it's not about the company's internal
data. Now, why isn't Silicon Valley, it's for Facebook, it's
for Google, it's for Apple is for all of these people.
We want to convince some of the talented workforce here in
Silicon Valley to come to Washington, the new United
States Digital Service provides the option for talent to flow
and rotate between private industry and our government
teams
that rotate, rotate in and out.
Now, is this like a military thing? This is US digital
service.
Yes. In fact, between private industry and our government
teams, this will build capacity on all fronts. I hope some of
you listening will consider a tour of service for your
country,
for your country, or a service or your country. This
tour of service is an acronym for we're not going to pay you
very much.
Just come on over tour of service, be a collaborator, be a
collaborator people, this is all good. You can you can join in,
be a collaborator, be collaborative. All right. I'm
just pointing out a few of the this is just
a money grab. We haven't got enough money wasted by the
government.
This is equal to anti terrorism, counterterrorism. So yeah, it's
one of these organizations, the military is going to do their
own thing. And they've already said, so we've heard many
testimony where they one of the generals says, Well, we're gonna
put together a whole core, you know,
so this, this, he's going to address this because this is
exactly the problem. I believe Johnson has been given the keys.
After all, he's the trigger man. He was the lawyer in the
Pentagon who would say yes, it's a go drone, that poor 16 year
old kid was drinking coffee. That's what he did for a living,
to encourage the private sector to share cyber threat indicators
with the end kick. The President also announced that we now
support legislation that will provide protection from civil
and criminal liability to those who share cyber threat
indicators with the
law is to protect the consumer,
civil, civil, yeah, civil cases, exonerated
laws designed to protect a consumer consumer. Why do you
say
How about citizen why consumer just citizen citizenry
give me a full immunity, you can screw over your customers as
much as you want, and they can't do anything about it, because
we've given you
immunity civil from all civil cases. Now. Now, this is not you
can't sue
that mean, sued. That means lawsuit. Yeah. It doesn't mean,
you know, they can be creating, but it's criminal and civil.
Yes. Well, they can be breaking the law besides screwing you,
and it's fine. They're good. Good to go. Thanks for helping
some more to share it via Facebook sign on to that.
Oh, they will. And that bill will pass know what
sign on to an immunity deal.
Yeah, seriously, like you mean like the vaccine companies?
Yeah, the vaccine
companies of all day boy Oh, great. We don't even have to do
pasteurization anymore. Hell with it.
Let's
do more sharing in this short clip in February 2015. This
year, the President signed an executive order directing the
Secretary of Homeland Security, that's me,
that's me, just in case you didn't know because you're
awfully quiet. You're not laughing at all my lame jokes.
And that's me
to encourage the further development of private
information sharing and analysis organizations or ICOs
i Okay. Another one I say owes. So, as they spelled is a oh I
think it was obviously with the actor analysis
organization went back a little bit it's funny when
we get the analysis organizations curves
the further development of private information sharing
private
information sharing P I s A O S, but why does he say private
information sharing now all of a sudden what what is that? Why is
that different from information sharing? I believe it's because
of the the acronym
and analysis organizations or I cIose in
analysis organization, is that what he's saying? I say Oh,
no ICL should be information sharing analysis organization.
Gotcha.
Gotcha. Information sharing and we so they will participate, not
just in the private sharing, but in the analysis of the
information that shared. Fantastic.
Well, that way you can blackmail people easier. So now
he's going to get into the crux of a little bit of the issues
internally with the infighting. And he comes up with a whopper.
The Department of Homeland Security has a major law
enforcement role in cybersecurity. The Secret
Service is known for the protection of our nation's
leaders. The Secret Service is actually a law enforcement
agency.
And this is very interesting, because we've looked at the
Secret Service. And we know that they originally as far as I
understand they were founded to go after money counterfeiters.
Right? Exactly. They're from the Department of the Treasury.
Department of Treasury. Exactly. Well, they now fall under him
apparently, well, maybe they always did. And
they are always did before 2002 Before these guys are formed,
correct? Correct. They started grabbing up different agencies
like the Coast Guard for some
Oh, I'm so glad you mentioned that.
originally formed by President Lincoln in 1865. To investigate
bank crime there you go bank this mission has evolved over
the years to include the investigation of cybercrime. Oh,
that's
all we need. We need the guys who are whoring around with
hookers and doing coke and fallen on their face and letting
the President be quasi attack. Yeah, these those guys
fantastic.
In February of this year, the Secret Service was the lead
investigative agency responsible for bringing to justice. One of
America's Most Wanted cyber criminal suspects. Vladimir
drinkin
vloggy mu drinker him. This was that the the guy who was living
in the Netherlands, who, by the way has pleaded not guilty to
credit card stealing credit cards. In there was a very, very
sketchy case for Judge Johnson to bring this up as something
great. The Secret Service did I think is is a canard.
Homeland Security Investigations is also involved in hunting down
cybercrime and the United States Coast Guard involved in
cybersecurity.
What else have I got? Yes, I got the Coast Guard. Oops, sorry. I
got the Coast Guard. Bring them into my story. What?
The Coast Guard they are cybersecurity? Yes,
sir. Yes, sir. Well, you know why? undersea pipes, baby?
undersea fiber cables? Yeah, we'll just stay here for what
we're going to drop anchor right over this little piece of fiber
guard
is involved in cybersecurity by working to protect our maritime
transportation system, a system that contributes 650 billion
annually to the nation's gross domestic product, and sustains
more than 13 million jobs from cyber related threats. Those are
some of the things your government is doing in
cybersecurity for
you. That's right now, final clip. And this is I said it
earlier. He uses such a douchebag Silicon Valley term
here. Maybe it's also a banking term. I want
you to know that when it comes to the government's
cybersecurity responsibility. I'm determined to root out any
turf battles between government agencies, yeah, because
he's in charge is threw down the gauntlet to the other agencies
in charge. He is doing the military. This is not going to
work dia NSA
CIA, I'm encouraging my people. It is bullcrap within Homeland
Security to work in a cooperative and selfless
fashion, with our interagency partners at the FBI, NSA
defense, Treasury, justice and commerce. Now, finally,
he has the mandate from his boss. Remember, he set it up my
boss, the President, I have the keys. I have the
subtle messaging he's doing. I haven't asked.
I have an ask. Tell me that's not a douchebag Silicon Valley.
I
haven't ask. Yeah. Oh,
I've heard this before. Yeah,
no, I haven't asked him. I'm surprised he doesn't go into
what's that list when you have when you have a list of things
you're supposed to do. I get a list. I don't know. It's not a
to do list. They use a term in Silicon Valley. Action Items.
Ah, action items. I haven't asked for an action item.
action items.
Now, finally, I have an ask
What could it be? Any guesses from the gallery? John Claude?
Yeah, he hasn't asked he wants to know why he could they these
these geniuses can bust this bladder drink. Remember, they've
done nothing about the target hack. They've done nothing about
the JP Morgan banking hack. They've done nothing about the
anthem health hack. Where are they? What are they doing for
word? They're finding some guy who just you know some lone
hacker.
Hey, Social Security get off that hooker. We got to go exit
PACs. Yeah, thank you for pointing out those cases very
good.
I have an ask for your indulgence and your
understanding on the subject of encryption. The Department of
Homeland Security has both the cybersecurity mission and a law
enforcement counterterrorism mission. Now, let
me see if I have funded this when I was first doing some
radio back in the 80s. These guys are trying to do this. They
want to ban encryption.
Yeah, kind of what he hasn't asked the ask is very specific.
It's very specific. Hello. What are you do
for the American people? We have
made efforts I'm sorry, the encryption encryption hurts our
law enforcement efforts. hiding information if you get you have
so why don't we
listen to him first, and then you can then you can rag on him?
Because you're just jumping the gun because you're doing the
right thing? It's just let's hear him say at first. But of
course, if he uses the iPod, what kind of analogy could you
use to explain how important it is? To have the keys to all
encryption, law
enforcement, counterterrorism mission for the American people.
We have our feet in both camps. I therefore believe I have a
good perspective. Yeah, with your iPod on this issue. The
current course we are on toward deeper and deeper encryption,
deeper and
deeper encryption. What kind of term is that? It's certainly not
deeper, but okay, I'm gonna let you slide on that. Whatever
we're going to Jimmy, I'm sorry. I will not even know we'll never
ask again. Fucking kids
in response to the demands of the marketplace, is one that
presents real challenges for those in law enforcement and
national security. Let me be clear, please, I understand the
importance of what encryption brings to privacy.
Okay, let me be clear, you have no clue what you're talking
about. But imagine
the problems it would have had, if Well, after the advent of the
telephone, the Warren authority of the government to investigate
crime extended only to the US Mail. Our inability to access
encrypted encrypted information poses public safety challenges.
In fact, encryption is making it harder for your government. Find
criminal activity? Yes, we in government know that a solution
to this dilemma must take full account of the privacy rights
and expectations of the American public full account full of the
state of the technology and the cybersecurity of American
businesses. We need your help to find the solution. Don't be a
fucking douche. Sorry. That came from
someone in the audience who carried away with Sony audience
got really mad, apparently. So there you have it. He also
didn't clip that. And in hindsight, it should have he
said he's also looking for an all star to lead the team
because I was on a recruiting mission. He wanted an all star
from Silicon Valley. Let's put it
that way. All see. Let's be frank Frank. Let's be frank. And
my name is now Frank. He's not gonna get one and just on the
heels of this boy, he actually will get some wine. We're gonna
call him and also be a schlub.
You should get Phil Zimmerman. You know, this guy.
This guy? He's clueless. Yeah, but you can see what's going on.
This is a money grab. And also the they got the law
enforcement, especially at the federal level would love it if
there was no encryption. And if it was illegal, because then
they could just tap everything and they could sit back on their
desk and eat doughnuts, and not have to really go out and do any
field work. Then they're going to come up with this, okay,
where you have another problem. We have criminals whispering to
each other, that we actually can intercept these messages that
are talking to each other because they're whispering we
need to do air implants and muzzling. hear all the
whispering going on in the country. Because that's what all
encryption amounts to. It amounts to whispering.
Ooh, I like that. Encryption is whispering. Beards are push up
bras. And this show is just rolling. We are off to a good
start. So the money grab has already started. And there was a
hearing on the hill, as we call it here in in Texas. With an eye
the reason why I stopped and watched her testimony was
twofold. One she's asking for money for an entire new State
Department system. She has a Assistant Deputy State
Department Goomba but her name, the Honorable Heather
Higginbottom. It doesn't get much better than that.
I know. Higginbottom Heather, I don't know if it's Heather. I
know it again, but
she is the honorable Heather. Hey, Higginbottom Would you
comment on this it independence issue and also write a first
refusal as well as this potential breach. So they're
using. So the guy doing that that's that's the senator, the
Higginbottom is about to talk. And she and so this is about
they want it independence. They want their own system new
system. And of course, this has to be because of this breach
issue. Yes. Thank you, Senator. And I've enjoyed our
conversations look forward to continuing them
suck his dick more will Yeah,
I meet. As you know, with the IG every week, we discussed issues
like the ones you just raised, we worked through the issue of
trying to get an MOU so that there was notification of any
entry onto the system. Just recently, the IG has brought to
my attention as well as to the Secretary's the request for a
separate IT system. We're looking at that very carefully.
We're seeking to understand how it would work they need to have
as he testified yesterday, some access to the systems they
currently have the architecture, we have to make sure our system
is as secure as it possibly can be given recent we are attacked
every day. 1000s of times a day.
1000s of times a day attacked, attacked, attacked, attacked,
you mean like a DDOS or or port probing or something happens
or what even be DDoS would be port probing. Yeah, but even
that is some little worms out there bouncing around. So can I
get in here? Can I now I guess.
She's translating that to the representatives of the American
public as as an attacks China, North Korea, the Russians.
So we have to work those are those are difficult issues. But
we're looking at that now and examining it. It's also
important we understand the cost.
Yeah, how much more we can get? I'm sorry, you and Rob, have you
actually had a breach that you can talk about?
I can tell you, Senator, that we have been breached, as has been
reported. Any further details of that we happen to have in a
different setting.
Alright. I would like anyone who has access to the State
Department and maybe Matt, although he's not going to do
it. Matt Lee, someone has to so we have glitch. We've already
all we all bend over. Oh, it's just a glitch. Just go ahead.
But now there's a breach breach. I'd like to know what it was.
What was the nature of the breach? What do you have? What
what constitutes? What constitutes a breach? Does it
mean they got into something or? Yeah, okay. So you understand
what I'm saying? Reporting? Is XO irrelevant? In today's world?
It's ridiculous. There's no reporting whatsoever. This is
all nonsense. Yeah. And nobody's calling anybody on anything. Oh,
well, you have to have a special meeting. Oh, it's it's
confidential. Because if we let anyone know what the breach what
they're going to do it again, it's going to give more people
ideas. There's lots of reasons to go secret.
And why is when a child is born upside down. Why is that called
breech? Or when a child is not born upside down? I should say
when a child with
this whole thing is upside down that well,
there's your answer. And with that, I'd like to thank you for
your courage to say in the morning to you John C where the
C stands for cybersecurity.
Devorah in the morning, you Adam curry in the morning all ships
and sea boots on the ground feet in the air subs in the water.
And all the Dames and the Knights out there in the
mornings
everyone in the chat room. They've loved this little bit
they've given some some good jokes going on. Oh, they're
chatting away no agenda stream.com where you can always
listen to the live stream every Thursday and Sunday in the
morning and in the morning to our artists in the morning to
our artists tastes but ours from the lowlands came back Tice
always makes this beautiful. I mean just really beautiful
artwork. It's all original and 715 Of course the the title of
715 Was I don't I don't even remember Sunday show apparently
we
don't remember much we're getting old. No Don't say this.
It was a gay serie. Yes. Gay series title. And oh, yeah. He
had like, should that be the NBC IA news truck with the Yeah, no
agenda banner, which was double whammy, loved it. Loved a great
piece of art ties. And of course, you can always see all
the fabulous art that our artists make an origin art
generator.com. And we thank them and always credit them
appropriately for their work.
Yes, we do. And we do have to, there's ground rules, certain
things you have to take face out to be readable a smaller size.
Also there has to be a note if it's stolen has to be
derivative, legally derivative, which is if you're an artist,
you know what that means. But just ripping stuff off now.
Write it straight up is not good. And we've had people some
people do that. Look, guys, this is funny. They had a big a good
album cover now. And the best stuff is creative. It's got
layers of it's dimensional. It's got funny stuff. Yeah,
throughout. Yeah. Let's thank a few people who are the executive
producers Associate Executive producers for show 716715 is
where I'm at. Well, I'm done. 716 But I'll call it 715. Just
to make you I thought
I was from the future. Edie
e Rick I think is or Eric I would say Eric, Eric Eric in
Vancouver, Washington 54321. That's a new one. I like it.
I like it a lot.
But it is Ted II Eric from Vancouver, Vancouver,
Washington. I'm sorry to say that I'm not listening to no
agenda show at that moment. Even though it is the best podcast in
the universe, I stopped paying attention to the news a long
time ago, and recently stopped listening to podcasts. Okay,
well, we need more donors like you. Just because there was way
too much noise.
He uses no bandwidth. Yeah. Too much noise
bouncing around my head to no agenda mission is to find the
signal in the noise and point out how we're being manipulated
by news and pop culture, which are basically the same thing. By
absorbing yourselves in this media poison you to truly show
yourselves as heroes, just like the rescue workers at Fukushima
it's a shame when people skip the donation segment because
it's the heart of the show. No Show is the group of people who
rely rely on you to as the singular voice of media
criticism accountable to no one accountable to know well we are
accountable to the producers who are accountable to the listener
the listeners and audience. You remind us that we're not crazy,
I trust you to even when you're wrong. Holding society together
this donation should put me at knighthood. So I would like to
be knighted as sort of Theodore of the present moment nice. And
then he's has a couple of side notes for us.
So he's not really a man overboard.
No he No, this is different. Yeah, but what would be called
asleep at the wheel is not at the wheel though. He's asleep at
the helm
to the show's contributing to the future this show is helping
the show and the people who know me see who he's not but he's not
listening he says but he'll listen to this I'm sure
he will. Oh, thank you very much assumed to be sir Theodore of
the present moment while
equating us with the Fukushima workers because we're going into
the Do we go into the death we could be swept away by the bull
crap Yep. And you know this this you know, but somehow I think
because there's two of us holding on for dear life
yeah, we compensate Yeah. When I slip in the water you pull me
out?
Yeah. I said what are you doing in there? You
know, I've got time for some time but sometimes your meaning
you push my head under a little extra. I do that but that's just
a
joke. Onwards a gym, Nutting in Everett, Washington 2131 Join us
the two of us 31428 I tried to send a donation a while ago so
total Boehner here I've been listening for a while but
finally have the ability to share some of my own financial
gains with the best podcast in the universe. I'd like to
request a D douching after my buddy Dean tagged me several
months back douching
no we do as a part of the whole segment don't me I can do it
does do van de douche it's
fine. To do it on the fly like the douche bag call out no we
don't but okay. Yeah, no. Oh yeah. As far out whenever I get
in the middle better. Whatever the case whatever the case as
far as clips all I really need is that bomb them and them I
needed that for a ringtone if Adam feels like adding one or
two more that said his discretion and left to his
creative Thanks for leaving me out of this formula by the way
keep up the excellent work you guys are needed and I will
continue contributing as Abel bomb them. We need to kill them
bomb. Bomb them.
We need to kill them. bomb them. bomb them. We need to bomb them.
We need to kill them and bomb them again.
I'm shocked shocked to find memes colliding in here. You've
got karma.
David de Fuca zotoh In Parts Unknown his phone right is
burning the military through and 415 ITM Jen some more value for
value and another Fletcher fest donation this time for my lovely
wife melody. John, I of course had to agree with you when you
said and show 713 That women name and Melody are always
attractive as mine is super gorgeous. And all women named
melody should also have a custom ringtone that yells melody.
Every time that person who loves them calls my melody, not the
trademarked one. Actually mine has been setting up a social
media manager marketing business over the past year. So in
addition to the Fletcher, shout out I'd like to have some jobs
karma for her and travel karma for me as the next three weeks
will be completely on the road for four different countries
shooting a wedding in Spain followed by a work trip to Kyiv
Kyiv of this interesting he communion in Belgium and more
work back in the old Deutschland. Finally, if you
could ease into Germany apparently he's a photographer.
Finally, if you could please play the vocal fry mash up you
did a couple of shows ago. The one Ted one made me crash and I
had been and it had been played at the podcast award.
I'm not sure which one he's talking about. It would have
been nice if it was playing. Oh, it would have definitely netted
you the comedy podcasts or word that's as always your knowing
wouldn't know it would not know nothing. Well, nothing not.
Yeah.
I got a couple of things for you. Then. In the morning.
This is Sir Jeff Smith. Saying say no to vocal fry. The more
you know, in the morning. Oh, go for
jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs. For jobs. You thought karma
I think we're the only pod show or media outlet period that
really is on this vocal fry thing.
Yeah, it'll now everyone will start doing it. Man. I
don't know. Sometimes they they jump on sometimes they don't
Trevor Mudge in Ann Arbor, Michigan. 31415. He sent an
email in and I didn't realize it was for today's show.
Oh, I may have it. Let me see if I recall something coming
through the transom. And I totally on the Telex
came over Yeah. Came over on the Telex Trevor mage donation. Here
it is.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yes. Because you want it is his name.
I have screwed up my denotation to support your wonderful
podcast, you may get a donation of 31415. I'm behind on episodes
is replaced Pi Day. Although he didn't begin or you could get a
call out. You may also get 31415 from a credit card and he goes
on. Okay, he doesn't really have anything to tell us. He just
says Keep up the great work.
No, but you said you wanted to use that name for something.
Yeah. Novel. Yeah. And he said you can use my name only if you
might get the girl one if he's the hero. And I'm a hero, too if
he gets the girl and if he is three portrayed is good looking,
which apparently he's not
decided to drop him and use Bob mage.
Wow. Well, maybe Trevor can make a guest appearance on
Morgan Corkhill in Kouji, New South Wales 31415. Now this is
one I again blank, which means I have to look at smart
one. Corkhill
Corkhill?
I don't see anything.
No, I just got the notification from PayPal. So if you have
something to say, let us know. Or if you have to call out that
you want to obviously wants to flood your call out. It probably
came in under some email that doesn't say Corkhill Tom Byrne
in Wellington, New Zealand and he's an Associate Executive
Producer to 4432 Hi, John, and I'm sorry for being a dick.
Thanks for teaching me not to take myself too seriously.
Okay, I'm gonna get some karma for that. Does that deserves
karma? You've got karma.
And then we have Barry Sutton, who also came in with no extra
note. Make sure. No. All right. Barry Sutton in steeps.
stepaside step as you're kidding me. There is a town in our
district in Dublin, Ireland called stepaside. Yes, must I
have a sorry I have a donation
at from Barry must be with a British live donation node from
Barry. Adam and John hit my wife in the mouth a couple of months
ago. I'm now divorced. Now. She's become increasingly
insistent that I'm a douchebag for not donating ever. Oh yes.
Please do douche me. Absolutely. You've been de douche. It was
not so much her whining. But but your last newsletter from the
18th that hit home and made me realize that just start
supporting TVP itu thanks for all you do. And he says can I
get you slaves can get used to mac and cheese and a jobs job.
Jay says it's Hillary but it's not Hillary it is. Fine. stinkle
No, no, no. The jobs job just Oh Pelosi. I'm sorry. You're right.
So we Need the mac and cheese? Oh, what's the what is the
regular mac and cheese one that's funny I have the mac and
cheese jingle but even I know what he wants. He wants the one
that's that
you'd get slaves. You need mac and cheese. Yeah, that's in the
background. Well, I
don't know. He lost it. Well, this is what's so I have this
new system, which seems to be working just fine.
when needed? Well,
I believe that this the Mac spotlight system gives
precedence to tags within the file and not the file name. And
oh, that's not right. It's very, it's in fact, it's quite wrong.
And you got to do a better job of tagging. So you got to go
back and take those 10,000 clips we have and tag them
appropriately by listening to each individual each individual
one over again. Oh, that would really suck. I think so. Well,
it didn't turn out.
That's what I need an intern who can text me? That'll be fun.
Cheese, mac and cheese. Jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote
for job. Karma. I
realized that was the wrong one. But now I have to find out where
it went.
Now you'll find it of course. That's a good one. Anyway, I
like that one. Sir James Howard. In Indianapolis, Indiana. tu tu
tu tu to free range children's segment from the last show
totally blew my mind. Those CPS jerks really have their heads up
their asses. They don't see that the children were kidnapped by
the police. What utter a holes Okay, hello that goddamn is
Yeah. Philip Smith in Oslo, Norway. $200. He sent a note and
I did have find please accept my donation to the BP itu. Sadly
the crumbling Norwegian krona limits my donation capacity as a
mere $200 cost me over 1600 and okays the latest? Newsletter
spurred me into action as the thought of losing you guys for
my commute is too awful to consider us a donation towards
my amazing wife becoming a dame and being EP for the next show.
She's already has a name made for Dame hood as she is Danish
but with a French surname. So here's my donation on behalf of
Sarah Doran unveiled Dilek who are
doing on Villa de la Kula de Ville de liqueur
the scent karma for my darling wife as she deserves all the
support in the world. She is married to me love the show.
So nicely we go down our future day. You've got karma.
And this is black knight Sir Philip Smith, Lord of the
northern lands, black Baron net of Oslo. To be precise. Yes. Now
we have dolly and della from Martins Deke
Tao en de la, from Martin's deck.
Yeah, Martin's diamond steak, not Martin's Dick dyke, which
means it was the dike there. Yeah, $200. Hang in there. Too

Did Leo see that? No, of course not. That would have been funny.
Amen. Someone just gave me money right here, Leo.
We get money from our producers. Who are the people you? Well
anyway, God not gonna say any more. We already talked about
too much about it. Anyway, that's a group of producers and
executive producers for show 715 Want to thank them all and
remind people that we do have a show coming up on Sunday a short
week, and it looks like their donations and finally fallen off
from the couple of newsletters that go. So go to
divorce.org org.org.org/n a.org become news can be a shoo in.
It's gonna be
easy, easy peasy pudding and pie. Thank you all so much.
These are real credits. Which means if you're an Associate
Executive producer or an executive producer, that can be
put anywhere on a piece of paper where credits will be expected
or are accepted. And of course, we always need everybody to go
out there and do the fine work of propagating the formula
formula is this. We go out. We get people in the mouth
shut up. Since we're still at the kind of the beginning of the
show, John, I know you're chomping at the bit to do some
stuff I need to do Something very important you know, I am
certainly no one who is who shies away. I'm not one to shy
away from a, a good theory that could be considered
conspiratorial in nature. I uphold many and sometimes they
turn out to be right. And people therefore call me the crackpot.
Now looking across the board, these Walmart closings in the
alternative news sector have been hailed as Jade Helm 15.
Well, the Jade Helm 15 is the is the event that is supposed to
occur and may involve Walmart or Walmart's going to be part of
the scheme. This is the biggest load of crap. By the way, we
have a number I don't have any of these letters in front. Well,
I'm going to I'm going to read one right now we have
a lot of people that apparently are in managerial positions or
Wow,
do you one better I'll do you one better at Walmart
that give us the inside scoop on this thing. And by the way, it
falls right into my thesis so hit it
not entirely. But it is this the the Walmart closings are There's
no There's seriously unfortunately, I would love
nothing more than tunnels underneath and FEMA distribution
centers by the way, that is true Walmart does have a deal with
DHS that in an emergency that they become a food and medical
distribution center that
has gotten lots of food there. Of
course that's true. You know, I saw videos. Oh, someone snuck
in. And it's crazy. You won't believe what you'll see on the
inside of the closed Walmart empty shelves. The one in Texas
still has the pharmacy open. So you can go and you can go around
the back I kid you not. You go around the back. And you can go
into a backdoor call. We snuck in the back door. And we took
some secret cell phone what an empty shell.
What did they expect a bunch of rotting food left there.
We have a dude named Ben very high in the Walmart, IT
organization who I've been in contact with for the past a
number of days, he has sent me information that could
incriminate him, even if I let's put it this way, he is
identifiable with information that he gave me. So I will give
you the information that and he showed me I feel valid proof,
you just have to take my word for it. First of all, Walmart is
in kind of in trouble. And I think that we identified this on
the previous show that they were already asked to Wall Street was
saying hey, they should probably close 100 stores a number of
things need to be done. But more importantly, the seat they have
a new CEO, the old CEO left to go to what's the what's the big
hedge fund the bush thing there in DC?
There's a lot of ma'am. No, I don't know. I don't know. Yes,
you do. Well, okay, but I don't remember.
That's true. So there's a new CEO, and the organization is in
shambles and things are not happening the way they should.
Turns out the plumbing they were talking about was fiber and
network plumbing. Not and now they may be doing some actual
plumbing but the stores are so I have seen evidence in the form
of what I believe to be authentic communications. The
stores are undergoing a remodel. Historically, it's about six
months for the remodel and plumbing probably is more with
the fiber so they close the stores and the IT guys are
freaking out because they haven't even pulled the fiber
yet between the between the disparate locations or wherever
the fiber has to come from. So what we will see in this is his
usage, okay, here's what's gonna happen next, you'll see your
store planner will be aside on site, they're gonna start
working on the remodel because they actually start doing do a
very good job of these remodels and the why they do this
surprise move is partially because they're the organization
is not as run not running as smoothly as it should be. But
also it's a good way to get rid of the dead weight because
there'll be hiring back people in six months and the same
people who were there previously will be able to be rehired maybe
at the new $15 rate but we don't know but it certainly will
enable them to not hire people they didn't want back so as much
as I would love to be all on board with the crazy shells
being a sign of Jade Helm 15 underground tunnels to the FEMA
camps we're all gonna die it's just a PR botch from Walmart and
then just Remodeling in six months these will be open again.
Take that Corbett
Well, I don't know why you'd mentioned him because he's he's
all in
on this. Crap
well so is your buddy and from you see man yeah oh god yeah but
so this is a lot of people are all in on it I was watching
looking around and going and they've they're doing it from
like from
two videos showing empty shelves real it's real
it's really odd you're doing a remodel that would make sense
that you'd have empty shelves I'd say
yes
so sometimes the best popcorn reversal has to give you just
has to give you what truly seems to be outcomes razor initially.
But more importantly I think that's interesting is that
Walmart botched this and maybe they love the whole alternative
theory so they can get their their ducks in a row while
everyone else is running around distraction of the week for
them. Yes, you're exactly running around talking about
Jade Helm are these men they must love that.
I'm sure some do and some don't. Who well.
I would think that
that the PRC is going to take place big, big, it's going to be
big. We're all gonna be swept we're gonna be all imprisoned.
Unfortunately,
I don't those are everywhere, though. Just trash.
Sorry.
All right. Well, I'm glad you did that. Here we go. So a
couple miscellaneous stories out of the way. How about the
Gazprom gouging story?
Yes, this is great. I'm so happy. I actually have a maybe a
longer clip direct from the horse's mouth. We'll listen to
your setup here. The European
Union accused Russia state owned energy giant today of price
gouging and monopoly practices. It was the latest sign of rising
tensions between the EU and Moscow. The EU's competition
Commissioner charge Gazprom is using its dominant position to
strong arm countries in Eastern and Central Europe.
Gazprom has been able to charge higher prices in some countries
without fearing that gas would flowing from other countries
from resellers or where the prices were lower. What we have
seen them in our data is that Gazprom has been challenging
what we think of as unfairly high prices. Gazprom dismissed
the accusations as unfounded.
I love so that was democracy now a very well funded on PBS, PBS
News Hour, I've very, very well funded News Group, who left out
the most important part of the story, which is what this is
really about. Let me
ABS would be inclined to do that.
Let's listen to you'll it'll be quick repeat of what you just
heard. It's Margaret, for start her. She is the European Union's
Commissioner for competition. Right. And this is about one of
my favorite topics.
Second decision today was the adoption of a statement of
objection against some guests from ACT activities. And what we
say in the statement of objection, is that our
preliminary view alleges that Gazprom is abusing this dominant
position, Gazprom has been able to charge higher prices in some
countries, without faring that gas would flowing from other
countries, from resellers, or where the prices were lower.
Now before I continue, because now we're getting into the piece
that the PBS NewsHour did not play for you, which is the Real
News. Please go get a map and just bring up Ukraine and zoom
out two clicks. What we have
seen them in our data is that Gazprom has been charging what
we think of as unfairly high prices in five different
countries. They be Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, and
Bulgaria. Gazprom has used its dominance in supply of gas to
obtain unrelated commitments from customers concerning the
gas infrastructure. In particular, evidence of this
conduct is found in Poland, concerning the Yamal pipeline.
South Street,
please go look at the Yamal pipeline. You can spell it with
a Y, you can spell it with the J. This is the alternative route
for it. So we have three routes. We have one the Nord Stream goes
to Germany, which is everyone's Germany can't put economic
sanctions on itself. So no, we have the Ukrainian pipelines and
then the Yamal pipeline, which goes through Bella ruse. And
through Poland. They all they want to block cock block Russia
everywhere. So and so now they're pulling out the oh,
they're anti competitive because they use their power to, you
know, to get countries to participate in which I might add
very profitable infrastructure, gas transit infrastructure, so
much so that Putin has now said Greece, I will if Greece signs
on to the Turkish pipeline, I will let them borrow any amount
of money they need against their transit fees, which are hundreds
of hundreds of millions of euros annually. This is this is this
shows you how pathetic the anti competitive competitive
commission is in the EU. This is why they and by the way, they
don't just do it to the Russians. They do it to
Americans. Oh, yeah. No, they're always gouging us.
And the pipeline literally go through Belarus to Poland. Oh,
unfair competition. So now now what is Poland going to do
Poland to say, hey, after you, you have this, we're making some
good money here with these transit feet. Belrose. Same
deal, and they get to take some of the gas. So I guess it was
too tiring to go in and create a war and Belrose. Yeah, to have
another regime change. That's what this is about. And I'm
shocked shocked. I tell you that the News Hour didn't even
mention
that. Well, they did mention it. In their defense. They mentioned
everything until the very end of that when they started talking
about the pipeline.
That's what it's about.
Yeah, well, that's what it's always about. Hello. We can only
keep up with the original thesis. Yes. Right. But I'm like
a shocker.
It's a shock it's a shocker when the pipelines it's a shocker
when no one
in the Real News says rocker that he's yeah that nobody calls
these guys out. No. They do on Archie. Yeah, yeah, cares. Were
they doing rd? No. But he listened. There was something
there was another thwarted attack and a terrorist attack
ISIS ISIL is group attack in Paris. And ABC News set the
stage with the language. This was a close call a very close
call. No, it wasn't no closing. No one No one was on the street
with a bomb or a gun. But okay, close call
police on Sunday in Paris, arresting a 24 year old computer
science student from Algeria. He was in possession of an arsenal,
they say of heavy weapons and was planning to carry out an
imminent attack on churches. He was already on a terrorist watch
list, because he wanted to go to Syria, which is as you know,
ground zero for violent jihad right now, officials are saying
they have detained one woman for questioning. But they are not
saying wait for a day on whether there are more involved. What we
do know is that France and right across Europe, including London
is essentially fighting off the virus of Islamic violent
extremism that is settling into the neighborhoods here into the
young people and some of them taking a violent revenge on
their own societies.
It's a virus John, it it's a virus.
It's everywhere. Dramatization, I would say it's
everywhere. This virus. I got it. I
picked up on an interesting kind of a sub thesis, I ran into that
number my clips have the secondary meanings. There is a
story about a hero cop.
Ah, thank goodness,
this hero cop and here we go. This is the story of the hero
because he did not do some guys a murderer coming at him and the
hero cop and he was called a hero for not shooting the guy.
Because every other news story currently is about some cop and
by the way, these shootings have been going on for years but
they're all over the news now and I think I know the reason
why based on a letter that we got and also this story, the
story triggered it
and officer in Ohio is being praised for restraint tonight in
a life or death situation. Last Thursday in New Richmond officer
Jesse kiter held his fire as a suspect charged at him have a
look at what his body cameras showed. Not gonna do
until backup could arrive. Suspect one in connection with
two murders was apprehended? No one hurt All right,
so good news that happens.
The good news is this whole thing all these good started
somebody got the wise idea right after Ferguson. And that's why
we every news day as somebody got shot by the cops. And the
backstory is and this is confirmed by this particular
story. We need body cams on all the cops. This is The body cam
companies pushing this stuff though it's only
one company. It's one company. It's the taser. One
company's got a big public relations operation going in
this story. Oh, he had a body cam. And we can watch now, these
somebody sent us a note with great detail about the current
crop of these cameras. They're too expensive.
Did you know 30 of the note in front of you now I don't.
They're too big. This was from Dayton, Kabul, I should have
talked about this two weeks ago. They're too expensive. They
reuse the cloud, they cost over it they the company is
overcharging for the entire operation, I am predicting that
GoPro is going to use this to bolster their stock because if
they can set up a system, and because they get the brand name,
and they've got some new competition that's going to hurt
him big time and their public company. GoPro is going to come
up with some camera operation and they will have the same
thing where you have Wi Fi connection talks to the car, the
car talks to the cloud, the stuff is saved somehow. And
there's also you know software you can get for just you know,
your own phone to do this. Take a movie goes to the cloud
instantly. Right now, there's the stories are promoting
everything is about promoting body cameras, body cams. And
this story confirmed that this was dead because the guy had
and as you know, I'm not a big fan of it.
I don't know that. We've we had a very long
discussion about it when it first came up in Ferguson. And I
said I'm not a big fan of of the body cameras. I am not
reiterate. I believe it will. I believe it will hamper law
enforcement though of course there's there's bad cops there's
good cops. I like having cops around I like the fact that I'm
armed to that so I'm okay that you can have a body camera all
you want but I believe it will hamper law enforcement. I was
thinking last night as as I was watching some of this too. You
recall the show cops this is just funny to think about it
would it's oh this is cops it's raw and this was in the early
90s I think wasn't the cop show.
I think it may still being the may still be may still be on
Yeah.
And everything was out then the cops were great. And they were
and they were kind of really buddy yeah, and bad boys bad
boys. Exactly. So that was clearly that must have all been
fake. There are no good cops because we don't see that
anymore. I think the body cams will hamper police work and
because you have to think so you have to oh my god I'm raising my
weapon or whatever whatever decision is being made. I don't
know if it's necessarily good I'm just not a big fan of the
whole idea. I don't like it I think the the car cameras are
like that. And although I don't even know if there's been many
convictions based upon car camera video, but in general in
general in general, in general first person video does not
necessarily give you the facts of what is taking place any
video does not necessarily give you the full experience of being
somewhere when something takes place. I'm just not a big fan of
it. I like cops don't like like cops to kill people, but I'm not
against cops and not all cops are shit.
So that's obvious, but I think there's a concerted effort going
on rather than a public relations campaign to emphasize
the shootings. And and to do that here's a cop that had the
body cam according to this story. Now he's a hero. And this
that was too much for me. That's why this
you're right and it's the Taser Corporation and they are
incredibly expensive. Their product and I remember us
looking at the Taser Corporation and calling this as the company
that would win and there they are because they already have
the tasers I believe they make the tasers too
well that would make logical sense.
What do you know what? What did someone told me what the acronym
Taser stood for? I think it was Tom. Tom a swift electronic
rifle. Like from the Tom Swift books
thing a swift and I know you had a middle initial
why he doesn't in my acronym. So good call. I agree. And and that
was on what what news outfit got duped for this.
CBS national. CBS Evening News makes nothing but sense. play
right into it. Yeah, morons.
How many how many years? Has President Obama been married to
Michelle Obama? I don't know. Do you think that's in the wiki
somewhere?
I would think it's on.
Have you ever seen wedding pictures?
What are you getting at? what's your what's your question?
How long have you been a rock Obama
have we been married? 20 something years Oh, wait
somebody you guys know the date? When was it? It's been it's been
over a decade. It's been 112
years is not a decade. Oh,
I thought that was rather strange.
Yeah, I did too.
I'm sorry, I forgot how long I've been married to my husband.
Believe me for a decade,
20 years?
I don't know it's not wrong.
Somebody here must know.
It's not, you know, Hey, kids, today, but it must be common
core.
Well, here's another little subtle message. Like the other
one is kind of like, well, it looks like the story looks like
one thing, but it did is about something else. And this is more
of a stretch than the one about the body cams. But this is this
is this clip students in Ohio are stupid
test proved they were ready. Fourth grade teacher, Maria
Cleveland, how many of your kids are actually reading at a fourth
grade level? Probably 50% of the reality is that kids are all
over the place. They just aren't ready for some of the things. I
mean, you kids don't know how to sound out words. They're working
on some phonics skills that they never received. It's an eye
opener, and then we're, all of them passed Ohio's reading test.
That could be the bigger problem,
they get to take it multiple times the same test, they get to
take it in the fall. If they don't pass it, they take it
again in the spring. If they don't pass it, they take it
again in the summer. And now they've thrown in a new test.
And how high was the bar turns out the score for promotion.
Advancing to fourth grade was set below the mark that defines
a proficient reader. There are different scores. And here's
why. This is a very, very hard policy. parents don't want their
kids retain schools don't want to retain them, it's expensive
to retain them $10,000 A year, if we had set those at the exact
same level at that proficient level, which is of course where
we want kids to be, this policy would have been dead within a
year.
I don't think that that little window of promotable versus
proficient is really anything to discuss. Because it's, it's too
close. It's like three questions.
To visit, the lower pass score is a good thing, because it
gives students a cushion, which makes sense. She says when the
test is high stakes,
it's an isolated day. Who knows what happened the night before?
Who knows if they had sleep? Who knows if they even ate dinner?
So yes, if they've got the basic skills, and they can at least
get it close, it's that little shadow of a doubt, that's fine
with me.
But a big shadow of doubt still hangs over Ohio's 96% pass rate.
A close look at test documents reveals more on just how low the
bar was set. Ohio will promote third graders, even if they lag
behind 85% of their peers nationwide. Aren't you just
setting those kids up for failure? No, I think they're
getting help, because we have focused this attention on
reading. And the teachers are aware that to me now, that's
just this is just my opinion, that to me would be a state
issue wanting to make it look like you know, the kids are
doing better. Well, you know, if they if they want to take that
latitude, fine. But what we're trying to do here, so terribly
important, it's important that we do it right, and not try to
do it all at once.
All right. So now of course, if you were in Georgia to begin
jail for some of this, you also pointed out I think it was a
month or two ago, but how they these common core testing and
all the rest of it has been actually the bar has is lower
than it was before for the purposes of letting everybody
pass. But this to me, this piece, which is on the News
Hour, I look at it as a hit piece aimed directly at gun
Governor John Kasich, who is a Republican hopeful and who has
high qualification skills to get the presidency and this is the
preliminary strike. Get this guy out of the way right away. Make
him look like he's the governor. They're trying to scam the
system. He's a scammer. He's a crook. That's the way I kind of
over interpreted what was really going on here because this story
was a mountain out of a molehill story that they just kept going.
They kept making there's a lot of implications like, oh, yeah,
you're gonna let somebody the 85% of the rest of the country
is smarter than you. Then it's like implying that Ohio windows
are dumb, dumb, and they run man they get a dumb governor.
Well along the lines of Common Core and specifically Pearson,
who are the publishers of all things common core. They also do
the star as T AR, which is the state of Texas assessment of
academic readiness testing that took place earlier this week.
And And while they couldn't do it because there was a
glitch, glitch, glitch.
So here's the reporting from the statesman. This is, I would say,
a very important newspaper in the state of Texas. several
school districts in Central Texas reported problems with
online star testing. See, they could not log in for about 35
minutes and then they will be answering the question and then
it would pop out. They'd have to log in again losing their answer
software glitch, good reporting, everybody. How about finding
they don't even mention Pearson in this which is baffling.
However, in California, California, yay the Los Angeles
School District has canceled the iPad Pearson curriculum. Good
$1.3 billion education initiative that would have seen
all students in the Los Angeles School District outfitted with
an iPad Hello Tim Cook. The Los Angeles Unified School District
has notified Apple it will no longer be using or paying for
the Pearson Education Curriculum that was meant to accompany the
iPads in a letter sent to Apple shared in part by the Los
Angeles Times. LAUSD asked for a refund that has no plans to
accept or compensate Apple for new deliveries. And, as you are
aware, or you're extremely dissatisfied with the work of
Pearson, while Apple and Pearson promised the state of the art
technological solution they have yet to deliver. Despite demands
to fix the problem, the vast majority of our students are
still unable to even access the Pearson curriculum on the iPads.
Oh, this is gonna be fun to watch at least at the corporate
level between Pearson and apple.
I'm sorry, what?
You have to eat the iPads.
Oh yeah. One point scam
that bothers me the most is the educational scam that Common
Core represents. And people like the Gates Foundation and all
these other guys. I don't know why it takes so long to figure
out that whatever Bill Gates is ever going to do. It's going to
involve selling Leno's
machines and it's but it's also going to be great. It's going to
be genius, and it's always going to be spot off. Common actually,
there was some something else funny that happened yesterday
not really related to Common Core, but other crazy
centralized bullcrap. I got a message from nurse Tracy and she
said we just had a patient walk in here who was complaining of
knees locking, while urinating, I think she knows, I think the
come the whole ICD 10 codes are funny. And so, you know,
whatever was going on, they were all joking. Now there's probably
an ICD 10 code for it. Would you know it? ICD 10 Code M 23.9. Or
nine or zero? Locking knees? is unbelievable. Even the people
diagnosing and working with the patients don't even know how
much what kind of codes there are. Long knee knee locking
arrangement of meniscus of knee, internal derangement of knees.
It has a code.
But is it well paying? Well,
unfortunately, not too bad. So when I said it's good, but it's
not quite there. And then the news that I was surprised that
this is not major, major news. It would affect everything I
believe, with the aviation industry. Authorities
in Tokyo are piecing together the details about a drone found
on the roof of the prime minister's office. This address,
hey, this story got a lot of legs. I didn't see it anywhere.
I heard it in a couple of places.
Well, I got it from somewhere, obviously, but it wasn't like a
huge deal. I think the payload is what's interesting. First,
the drone carried a slight amount of radioactive material.
They're trying to figure out who fluids and when. Police are
studying footage from surveillance cameras located
near the office. They say staff discovered the drone Wednesday
on the roof. They had gone there during a training session for
new employees. Investigators say the last time anyone had been up
there was a month ago, and there was no drone at that time.
exclusive photos obtained by NHK show the device was carrying a
container filled with liquid and marked with a radioactive
symbol. Investigators found traces of cesium inside. Police
have stepped up surveillance around the Prime Minister's
Office and the dye building they're keeping a lookout for
any suspicious activity and they're asking the managers of
nearby buildings to lock entrances to rooftops
is probably some delivery why you know you're gonna have a
little bottle of cesium in a in a liquid. I don't know what that
would how you do that. But the
only thing I can think is that this is obviously for more
security weaponry that needs to be purchased of the drone
variety from For Japan that that's what I was thinking
immediately.
Now that they aren't big enough sail that Canada's immediate
it's, it's Mickey Mouse has to be some
salsa. I have to correct myself, I have to correct myself the
handover of OPCON, the operational operational security
weaponry for South Korea. I didn't realize this it was
supposed to be handed over at the beginning of the year, so
South Korea would run it themselves has been delayed.
Until 2020. So everyone you're all still in good hands. You
don't have to go over there and blow some South Korean to sell
your nuke you can just do it with the same old people you
always do in Washington.
Well, I think they're going to the real actions is still going
to be take place in the Middle East. It's gonna all blow each
other up.
Oh, sure. Sure. Um, it's just it's just a
fact a lot of programs. I mean, the Japanese just launched a
fabulous looking missile into the I don't know where it well
really? Oh, it's beautiful.
I say not often I'm enthralled by a missile. Oh, I think
was dynamite looking. And I'm thinking well, you know, ICBM
quality thing you know, they're going to go hit the moon or some
and but it's like you know, they put a bomb on a warhead on that
thing and they can make up for World War Two and drop our West
Coast cities.
I want to take a look at this thing. What was so beautiful
about it, it's just gorgeous looking
very well just symmetrical had nice looking engines. It's just
pretty funny. Anyway,
I've never been turned on by a missile. That's what you see was
symmetrical. It was beautiful.
Anyway, they were gonna have to have some sort of a con pop up
the
shaft was the shaft all different hard, and
you have to turn everything dirty. It's my job very
offensive. Anyway.
So I'm sorry, I offended you.
They're going to have to let the the Iranians will get the bomb
and then the Saudis and they're just gonna blow each other up.
This may be the right he's talking about crackpot. This may
be the rationale for moving toward natural resources and
homegrown oil and the west coast all that oil in the Middle East.
If they have a exchange of of nukes and you blow up one thing
or another, it's going to be contaminated and not useful and
will be usable.
Oh, that's a good point. There was an interesting report on
CNBC about the oil, specifically oil prices, which I thought was
Well, whenever whenever CNBC says buy, you know, you better
be selling but I did want to play this Quickie, but as far as
crude oil goes, Jackie, I'm a buyer right here. You have us
production, flatlining. You have ISIS battling for control of oil
fields in Iraq, the US warships off the coast of Yemen.
I think we see $60 Before we see $50 again now so that may be
helpful. What do you think that?
I don't like that. I think oil should be 30 bucks. And let the
economy just go nuts. Right. But
is it conceivable that creating a little bit of tension sends
the prices up and that's good for everybody.
It has done that in the past but this is only the promise is pre
accounted for because ISIS is not a new thing. It's going in
there. I mean, they've been there
well the aircraft carrier near Yemen is the aircraft
carrier new Yemen is new so that would push the price up a little
bit but it's not I don't think so. I don't think it's 60
anytime soon.
Again whenever se CNBC says by you're going to be separate
CNBC is their theory is the same by about everything that true
it's like the bullish network. It's gonna be a massive
depression everything collapsing buy, buy, buy, now's the time to
buy it because it's low.
Meanwhile, we haven't really focused on this war on cash. I
think for the past two weeks, we just haven't gotten to the we
haven't talked about for months. yet. We haven't talked about it
Louisiana passed House Bill one nine or five. banning the use of
all this is very similar to what we saw in European countries,
banning the use of all cash in all transactions involving
second hand goods. State Representative Riccardi co
authored the bill claims that Bill targets criminals who
traffic and stolen goods. It's a mechanism to be used for the
police department has something to go on. I have a lead. The
bill prohibits cast Transact transactions by secondhand
dealers defined to include, yes defined to include garage sales,
flea markets, resellers of specialty items, even nonprofit
resellers like Goodwill. Curiously, pawnbrokers are
exempt from the ban, of course. This is very, very, very bad.
Vote was passed. Yes, it's up for a vote. It was passed House
Bill 195. State of Louisiana. passed says passed? Yes, it says
with the passage of okay, now was it I don't know if it has
been signed and
so but it's illegal as an illegal Bill there's no way that
that's constitutional.
Well, let's take a look and see if if you read the Federal
Reserve
Note it says this is good for all debts and blah blah blah
it's got it on the bill. A us a US government issued bill that
should be used for paying things it's illegal to make that not
true.
Well, it also says In God we trust you know, so I don't know
that somebody whatever the case, this is not legal bills
bullcrap. Everybody from Jews Craig's List, you know, you
can't do any cash transactions on anything Give me a break this
is like and this isn't gonna owe them here's law enforcement
again looking for some easy way out well, you know, you guys
sold some stolen goods or just go to the next state you could
drive out to Louisiana in an hour and a half
I'm trying to see if the if the governor has passed it because
that would be the final hurdle House Bill one nine or five Let
me see. Well, they of course they they've been doing this all
over the world and we even received a communique from was
this from some bank douche? me say it was I think was Chase.
Yeah, JPMorgan Chase. You're no longer you are prohibited from
storing cash in your bank safety deposit box.
No, they can do that. It's their business. They can they can
I would thought it would be able to find out if it was passed or
not hold on one nine or five recreates. But But I think it
looks like it might have been an amendment to something that they
tacked on there. Which means it probably will be signed into
law. I think it got signed into law. Well, I'm not 100% Sure.
Whatever the case it was I said it I heard it cut it or whatever
the case
is, hey, just because you catch it doesn't like it gives me that
gives me license to you know it gives us zero license to use
like that.
Right. This is illegal it's an illegal if anybody takes it to
court I mean it's ridiculous. How can you I'm sorry to the
public how can I screw your own public in Louisiana? Oh, because
all law enforcement now can look at you know, there's good credit
card
data stolen while they want it. They just want to track your
your movement and you're running
a garage sale you gotta go to the bank and sign up for credit
card payments, so you got to get one of those little square guys
Yeah, square. They might have lobbied for it. Who knows? Some
people don't have credit cards. For every transaction a
secondhand dealer must obtain the sellers personal information
such as name, address, driver's
license, license plate number the vehicle in which the goods
were delivered. What if the seller cannot or refuses to
produce the second hand dealer of any required forms of
identification a secondhand dealer is prohibited from
completing the transaction.
What is and this concludes garage sales and
flea markets and ham a swap meets.
Swap me I can
just hear the hands going nuts would have I got I got
it on the horn and stop this.
hams. Huh.
You're a ham?
Yeah, I'm not gonna I'm not from Louisiana when I'm in the great
state of Texas. We don't We didn't allow this in Texas. Oh,
no, they would not. This would not be happening. But it does
look like
so I'm gonna buy a you know, like a bookshelf a used
bookshelf from you at a garage sale. And now I have to give you
all my ID and you got to write down my life.
I think. I think that's different. If you are, let's say
you're a flea market dealer and you acquire things from people,
you need to get all that information from the person you
bought it from before you sell it on to anybody, because it
could be you could be fencing, I guess. But the cash transaction
is just for bohtan and again, including goodwill.
A lot of I go to Goodwill and give them a bunch of old
clothes. They had to take all my details. Just in case I'm
fencing you
yes. Oh yes. Yes.
There's a couple old ties I might be fencing those they may
be stolen from the prints Yeah. me a break. Now that's some
people should get worked up about instead of these tunnels
under Walmart. Oh tunnels under Walmart. The shelves are empty
people. The shelves are empty. We've got exclusive shelves
I should find that Oh, I gotta find this video because it was
the funniest thing Hold on. Just indulge for a moment while I
find this. I think you'll get a kick out of it was one of those.
Hello Hello people well You won't believe what they're doing
now. It's really crazy we've got exclusive video only WalMart
exclusive I should have clipped that we could have had a good
laugh but here it is exclusive footage footage inside closed
Walmart and Walmart in California here we go seven with
a big update now of course that's been drivers Why is it
don't make that suck please Why is that now sucking
that lives 10 minutes away from this pico Rivera location in
California and she has supplied us with some footage that I'm
going to share with you guys and through guys those showing
what's going down here now right out the gate
whenever someone says you guys in a YouTube video you can just
fast forward it's gonna be che
the windows are covered in a black plastic whoa harp black
tar pointed out black plastic lace completely did
let me fast forward to the going inside here we go
that it showed up wanting to get their prescriptions because that
part fortunately was still open fortunately for now as you can
see she states there were cops at every entrance Oh cops have
the perimeter perimeter especially at the receiving the
perimeter perimeter now they made their way up and there was
an area blocked off
that listen to this a woman is doing this instance something
weird is going on with
this right here let them into the building in this is what she
saw rows and stacks of empty shelves all the way around
blocking the view blocking the view I roll some footage and let
you guys see this roll some footage
Be very afraid
this is great this is so this is so crazy we've got footage we're
going into and they held the iPhone
in portrait mode is that of landscape gorgeous we're walking
in we're seeing nothing but at this point
where she makes her way in and you can see that the shelving is
completely blocking the view of the rest of the store. And how
she stated
stated stated was
Quiet quiet besides the temple pharmacy here
it was quite an empty store with nothing on the shelves
as you can see completely blocked off. So what they did is
they put some empty shelves they stacked it just a little area so
you can get to your get to your the pharmacy
sir yeah, like keep compartments for good reason.
Our police around the complete perimeter perimeter is
surrounded by policing the docking bay receiving Bay and
someone walks up to her and says hey and tells her to stop Stop
filming.
Well yeah, you're in Walmart. This just goes on and on. The
shelves are empty. The police are around the perimeter. Oh my
goodness. I hope I never sounded like that ever in my life. But I
probably did is film point.
That's fine. Okay, we got the nun over to listen to this as
couples who actually listen, we didn't play this clip. This was
the Loretta Lynch kind of I think Obama kind of blowing up
and
this is the new holder, the new
holder who is a friend of holder's wife I think she's
they went to school together they have on some some charities
together.
They know each other which is kind of well,
gee, I'm shocked. There's
nepotism, nepotism,
do we have a nepotism? We probably do.
But for this I just found this to be an amusing clip because
Obama's just like come let you off the rails as far as I'm
concerned
as deal tweaks the abortion language in a way that both
sides say they can accept. It also comes several days after
President Obama blasted the delay up to lynch domination.
There are times where the dysfunction in the Senate just
goes too far. This is an example
of it. My wife's friend and folders friend should be brought
in. Go it's gone too far. Too far enough. Not enough enough.
Call Loretta
Lynch for a vote. Get her confirmed. Put her in place. Let
her do her job. This is embarrassing.
No, no, no. What's embarrassing? Embarrassing is this little
video by Samantha Power from 2008 when she was talking about
her friend, Barack Obama, being the man for the job, and
particularly when we talk to the Kardashians, I'm sorry, the
Armenian community.
I am Samantha Power of professor at the Kennedy School of
Government and one of Barack Obama's senior foreign policy
advisors. And I just wanted to speak with you, the Armenian
community about the reasons I'm supporting Barack Obama. What
I've seen in Obama Over the years now, the last few years is
his unshakeable conscientiousness, about human
rights, on the issue of genocide prevention, whether with regard
to understanding the cost of denial and the degree to which
that fuels, further cycles of violence or a real live genocide
that's going on as we speak, which is that endure for and the
leadership he's taken on that issue. Moreover, though, what is
amazing about Barak and as I anon Washington person, so
gravitate toward is his willingness to challenge
conventional wisdom and conventional Washington, as your
community knows better than anybody. Business as usual in
Washington, leads to certain bad habits that are destructive for
human rights and for human dignity. very forthright
statement on the Armenian Genocide is support for the
Senate Resolution, acknowledging the genocide all these years
later, his willingness as President to commemorate it, and
certainly to call a spade a spade and to speak truth about
it. I know him very well and he's a person of incredible
integrity. And his his he's not going to focus group his way to
making very important policy decisions. He's a true friend of
the Armenian people and acknowledged and not
acknowledged or of the history but I hope you in the Armenian
community will take my word for it. Take my word hope you'll
just pay attention in these coming days to everything that
comes out of that person's mouth Barack Obama's mouth because
he's a person who can actually be trusted. Hey, man, first of
all, that's
right Armenia. Wow.
We there's just a 100th anniversary just accredited
another quiet don't say anything. He
won't. He was saying forget the resolution. You won't even say
yeah, it was genocide.
Yeah, no, he's done. He's good. That that. That is that bullcrap
that he said, Is This is bull crap. Oh crap, and she's a
sucker.
You can trust him. Trust me, you can trust him.
So the local news story around here I thought was kind of
amusing. I just think it's just the sad because I bitched and
moaned about bicyclists, to the kind of the mentality we haven't
noticed. San Francisco Bay Area. This is the kind of thing that
goes on
you need to move out of there.
I love it. Is a candidate goes on a stabbing by pan on an
airplane snorted.
stunning moment on board a Southwest flight just before
takeoff in Chicago after a bizarre incident of air rage.
Look at this. You can see on this man sleeve a fellow
passenger attacking him with a pen. That woman escorted off
reportedly annoyed by his loud snoring. And she's not the only
one losing her temper. ABCs David Kerley tonight, this pen
turned into a weapon of sorts on a man who was snoring.
Imagine being asleep and then being stung by bees and waking
up and going owl.
Police Board the evidence blue ink on his shirt from the pokes
or stabs from the woman sitting next to him. This all happened
before takeoff from Chicago. She was working and we just never I
mean, she said zero she was escorted off personal space
invasion that can get nasty. Remember the woman sleeping on a
man's lap, or the woman who last year threw a soda in a man's
face because he used a pair of those knee defenders to keep her
seat from reclining. If you talk to flight attendants, air rage
is on the rise, partly because of the pack planes and the
incredible shrinking seat narrower and from 34 inches of
legroom a couple of decades ago. Cut to 30 to 30 even 28 inches
in some low fare operators.
We're heading to more trouble if we don't take this seriously and
take a look at what's happening in the aircraft cabin
environment today.
The woman with a pen was not charged she was put on a later
flight to New Hampshire. Hmm,
yeah, what a charger. So the guys snoring away and this woman
just takes a pan and started stabbing him.
Yeah, I think we need to recognize that human beings are
a holes. I mean, not the ones who you know, I think the no
agenda listeners are in a different category. And some are
thinking in a much higher plane of vibrations. But in general,
this type of behavior comes from I really think it comes all the
way from the leadership in Washington DC.
But it also doesn't help to have these 28 inch as they meant no
that doesn't know that doesn't get a bunch of people into
these. And then these airlines have the gall to suggest
standing room only seats every so often.
Well, that's but that's not really the problem. You deal
with it. And we're all in the same boat. But no, we're going
to now we're going to have to be assholes to each other. And by
the way, we're seeing riots now in Baltimore. You know, what is
happening here? Why you see black people on the street. I'm
going to say it very clearly because it kind of struck me as
I was watching this live footage, and you know, Pete
People coming up just jumping in front of the CNN guy, Fuck the
police, you know, with a full on grill to is pretty cool. It's
like like Flavor Flav was on there. This is what happens when
the the leadership of a country tells you all as well. And you
know, unemployment, its lowest ever since I've been around. And
the economy is great, because the poverty the real poverty has
been pushed into, into a ghettoized areas of primarily
African Americans. Hispanics, that, believe me, just because
we see a lot of black faces, it's going to happen with a lot
of white faces to this is what poverty does, the people have no
more. And the people who are just getting by, they're the
ones that start poking each other with pens, because they're
so frustrated about their own situation, with just the can't
get by there, there's completely filled up to the gills in debt.
They don't know, they don't know what to do to get to the next
month, they can't take any kind of break. They've got ISIS and
all these fear mongering things all over the place, and cyber
and whatever it is, this is what this is, it starts now you see
it here, it is going to only get worse, and it will be blamed on
bad cops and anything except the truth, which is particularly the
president United States is lying, lying, lying. He's lying.
Lying, it's shit. It isn't. The only reason why we're still
alive is because we provide entertainment, which
traditionally in bad times, does, okay. This is true. And
everybody else is in dire straits. We see it in the
donations too. It's not just people giving, giving a shit
about our show. It's poverty. And it's all blamed on something
else. And then the middle class where we're all supposed to be
the middle class is is stretched, and people are
snapped. What is this? I have the right here, just be on this
plane. Don't stop. I've seen these people. It's a virus of
the mind. And they're freaking out.
Well, it's definitely lots of them. And of course, I could go
into my wealth tax thing, which would probably solve some of
these issues. But let's go to listen to the super economist
crazy guy, that bald guy in Greece,
the the cool the cool dude Volk
Volca, Volca Waldemar, and he wants to brings up the oligarchy
and says, you know, the rich aren't even being taxed at all.
But this was a little interview he had on Democracy Now. When
Amy wine Hart, good Heimer. Good. Amy good Heimer asked him,
Do you think you're gonna get kicked out of the euro? And I
think he gives the absolute best answer to this. And I had a few
little gems in here. And it's very, that I listened to this
guy's with a lot longer than this little clip. This guy is
actually incredibly sharp.
Well, we've discussed this. Yeah. And what is the clip name?
The clip name is euro and the Greek guy.
What will you do if Europe expels you from the euro,
poke him with a pen. Europe is not going to expel us from the
euro. I refuse to believe that Europe would ever operate that
way. And remember that since the end of the Second World War,
European peoples and their governments have been working
tirelessly to bring closer integration together. Nobody in
Europe wants to begin the process of disintegration over
what is, after all, a very small philosophical difference of
opinion regarding how to stabilize a small economy like
Greece. Opposition is that, folks, the last five years have
a decisive proof that this program that you had agreed with
previous governments was not working. And now we will need to
reboot it, we need another one. And we need one that makes
perfect sense that it's completely undogmatic. And which
does two major things. Firstly, it removes the austerity driven
logic from the scene because it's self defeating. And it's,
it's pushing debts up rather than down by attacking incomes
from which the debts will have to be repaid. And secondly, deep
reforms that attack the malignancies of a Greek social
economy. And in particular, the oligarchy and the very gross
level of inequality, which is adding to the crisis when you're
turning a society like Greece into less equal to more unequal
society. And you reduce the tax base by allowing the rich to get
away without paying their taxes to have tax immunity and
constantly to be looking at small
scale parasitic behavior while neglecting the grand scale
parasitic behavior. then you're simply making a bad thing worse
and
I spoke to a Greek kid or direct a kid from Greek descendant
yesterday. So yesterday Tuesday, I was being interviewed for a
documentary and he was a local guy kami to 4k camera. So he
rents himself out. And afterwards the documentary dude
who was actually it's pretty famous. He's getting famous his
uh, his documentaries is out now called an honest liar which is
pretty good about deceit in you know, fortune tellers and all
kinds of stuff like that. And so what's the what are you hearing
from the from the old countries that everybody my entire family
for everybody wants to draw come about? As you kidding me? They
actually think that's gonna work and they really wanted it. Well,
how about Syriza? Well, you know, they're not super happy,
but they think they're the guys that will at least get something
done. And they, the Greek according to him all want to get
out of the Euro go back to the drachma, unaware apparently, and
he actually said that we'll have hyperinflation for a while, but
then it will calm down. We'll be better. Alright, well, okay.
Sticking in the neighborhood.
What's the drive that Doc, you can't just drop this bomb? Read
part of a documentary and not tell us anything? Oh, I'm
sorry. Yes. So the guy's name is Tyler.
Durden. Yes.
Former LDS, by the way, it was very interesting to talk about
that for a little bit. He was raised Mormon. And he sent a
couple of docs, but this one is even playing now in, in Austin.
So there was like, I got a request through my agent from LA
who has never gotten me a paying job ever. And I never hear from
him. And it's been more than a year. There's no money. And then
I go look at the guy and I see the films that he's gonna do an
MTV documentary. However, it is not just about hey, man, I was
like, it was like the interview Bon Jovi, which I would not have
done. But it was more about how it was actually a lot of MTV and
technology. So I got to tell you a funny story about how MTV said
that go ahead, curry. You can use mtv.com Whenever the
internet's nothing. We've got the AOL keyword, and stuff like
that. Right. And, but how we're thinking during that era, by the
way, but also parallels between cable television and internet.
And of course, we see the same things happening now with
gatekeepers and what can and cannot be done. And yeah, it's a
labor of love. And I hope he gets it all together. He's got a
lot less garland. So he's got a couple people already. And it
might turn out there might be some difference. Are you wearing
your beard? A little
bit of beard? Yes. And I had my T shirt. I thought I would do a
T shirt. I had a jacket on but a t shirt with a it's a wiener dog
with a unicorn horn and it says believe
it and yeah, bring a no agenda t shirt. No.
No, I didn't. I don't have a give away. Wait, did you Yes.
Why? Yes. And that brings me to a little segment is a little
segment I like to call. Thank you for Christmas in April. The
Facebook group, no agenda Facebook group, apparently,
they. So I mentioned my Pio box in Austin for 1958. And, and I
observed I should go in and do that thing out, see what's going
on. You know, when you open the PIO box, and it's crammed and
there are five keys in there, because that means that there's
five other articles that were too big to cram into the box.
You know, this is gonna be a good day, I could not carry this
stack of of packages out of the post office in one go had had to
go back two times. As I want to thank Trevor Howard, who sent me
a fantastic package. This is obviously the no agenda CD
package. And along with that, now comes business cards. So
there's a whole Vistaprint box of business cards on one side,
it's just no agenda on the other side. It just has the QR code
for no agenda show.com And has the new CDs which I think the
labeling is just beautiful. So I want to thank Trevor for that.
Then I want to thank you for what
about the Ramsey?
Will Trevor Howard sent him okay, but the Ramsey product
Citizen X citizen eggs this is how it was tipped off to media
as today you know, we were talking about sending you stuff
and she sent me glow sticks.
She's got a big crush on you, you know? Yeah. And she sent me
I think you have one of those.
I you know that you played that earlier and I as soon as you
did, I said you know I forgot where mine even is.
Yeah. Then let me see if I get to
a metal one or is it a plastic one plastic?
Benjamin rittgers I believe challenge coin that received
that we talked about along with his donation notes so I got that
one thank you very much. Then I have this is from Baroness Tanya
What did she send again? Oh she sent me a book please kill me
which is a book about punk rock love that and surf birch sir
birch up there sent me a brand new Philips Sonicare diamond
clean
he says just in case Mickey took the other one please use it in
the morning and in the evening. Thank you.
Mickey take the other one. No, but the other this is a new
version so you can do your teeth in half the time.
Ah, but a Bing and then finally this is from
this is from Trevor I think this is yeah, this is from Trevor. So
this is no okay. And then from this is the final article from
our very own John Fletcher. He sent me an actual Boson whistle
yeah, I've
got one the now
I thought you could go up and down in tone but I haven't
figured out how to do it. There's
some way of doing it with your use one of your fingers you got
different tones there.

Yeah, so we have. We have a couple of birthdays on the way
and we also have a couple of nice things and one posthumous
Daming and I'd like to share the note because we met all of these
folks on the eighth 2008 Hot Pockets tour. And Chick shinny
with with the Greer's in the morning back in the Hot Pocket
2008 two chicks Shinya met crash helmet Kathy you remember she
had that the Kooky asked crash helmet on that said it had she
had no agenda on it written on it and magic marker. You might
You might remember. Yeah, I
do remember the photo? Yeah.
Okay. She was suffering from cancer just had chemo was
totally bummed that she couldn't make it down from New York to
meet you on the tour. Of course, her whole family was there.
Since she's the most loyal na fan right from the beginning of
the show. For the past few years. My mom Vicki has been
sending you our families. No, just no agenda, Christmas card
and periodic updates about Kathy. Her condition went from
okay to bed and back again over the last few years. However,
things deteriorated pretty badly for her last fall. And well her
fuck cancer karma finally ran out on January 31. No agenda has
been a really great bonding point for us. It has provided us
with many of the discussion points through Which Kathy and I
got to know each other. Uncle Rick and Kathy have been
visiting my family for Christmas for years. I always look forward
to seeing them sharing na gag gifts and having a good old
fashioned crackpot and a discussion. We were all close
before but the inside baseball the show gave us a special
camaraderie that made spending time with him truly meaningful.
The show was a big part of how we interacted with each other. I
can't remember the last time I called them and it didn't say in
the morning douchebags. In fact, fact my last conversation with
Kathy during her last few days in hospice started out with in
the morning slave. We exchanged a few memes from the show even
then knowing how things were going to end it was really
moving to pass some no agenda jokes back and forth one last
time. FEMA Region three is going to be a lot of fun. This Sunday,
April 26. In lieu of a glum funeral, there's going to be a
celebration of Cathy's life with family and friends. I haven't
monitored my donation total since my knighthood in 2012. But
it turns out, I have an extra knighthood. I never cashed in
accounting attach rather than getting the Baronet Title I
would like to posthumously donate the knighthood to Kathy
if you could a night Dame Kathy posthumously on Sunday show that
would be the most meaningful thing I could think of to
commemorate her. It also means a lot to Uncle Rick, who was a
tireless and loving caregiver for Kathy, I want to thank you
all for the work you've done for the show may seem thankless at
times, but it's really brought us together in Midian a uniting
factor for me and my family, Uncle Rick and Kathy, she may be
gone. But she hit a lot of people in the mouth on her way
out and I can't adequately put into words my appreciation for
the show and the impact that has had on our lives. Thank you so
much. Amen. Fist bump, sir Scott protector of the dykes on bikes.
So yes, yes, yes, yes, a million times. Yes. And we will
certainly miss the humor of now to be deemed Kathy but you guys
can obviously keep that going. Hey man, first of all,

to be able to really whack that Helmer Kevin McCarthy and Kathy
I know you're on there somewhere. All of you are now
about to enter the exclusive club known as the roundtable of
the Knights and the names of the no agenda show and I hereby
pronounce to Kate the Sir Kevin of Devon, sir Theodore of the
present moment. And of course, Dame Kathy, for you. Wherever

we will send you off your ring and the entire kit. please
retweet that I go to no engine nation.com/rings And we shall
have it all taken care of.
Oh, sweet. So a little touchy. Actually. We have a very Yeah,
we have another situate you know where I? Earlier in the show? I
mentioned the Why can't these guys from Minnesota go to Syria
if they want to? Yes. Because they're Americans you
have freedom or freedom or like freedom of travel is a right
freedom of movement is a right
yeah. So what's the point? And we're don't have a war declared
declare war and then you can make the I think you'd get
the authorized use of military force might give you some thing
but even that I don't think can hold? I don't think
so. And it's not are they if you're in Libya, are you
shooting at Americans? I don't think so about that either. So
here's another one. That's just I don't know why this bothers
me. Because the guy's an obvious douchebag. And we should you
know, and he's I didn't like him from the beginning. And now he's
been charged with murder. And we're talking about Morsi. This
guy was elected. Yes. As the president of the country. He was
elect duly elected
in India. Let's just point India
in that in India. I'm talking about
Modi Morsi. Yes. yeah I'm sorry Marcy
Morrissey Modi but Morrissey duly elected first time they've
ever had this sort of thing part of the Arab Springs Egypt Egypt
part of the Arab Spring you know we had Egypt we had Libya all
these great things are going on with our tech experts and of
Twitter accounts and we drop allies these places but but I
just thought that there was some irony just keep you visually
have to see this more see guy looking like the fuck it what
did I do? The only democratically elected leader of
modern day Egypt is headed to prison for 20 years.
On Tuesday, a criminal court in Cairo sentenced the ousted
Islamist President Mohamed Morsi to two decades behind bars in
connection with the murder of protesters back in 2012. It is
the judicial climax in a dramatic downfall for Morsi and
Egypt's once powerful Muslim Brotherhood.
Well, Amnesty International has slammed the sentence calling it
a travesty of justice.
A 20 year prison sentence for a freely elected president in a
cage. The court convicted Mohamed Morsi of charges
connected to the deaths of protesters. He was acquitted of
murder to the disappointment of many.
Yeah, it's just New World Order, man. If you don't play along,
you're out.
Yeah, you gotta play the game. I mean, if you're gonna go with a
bit deaths of protesters, I mean, Obama would be in jail.
While he does take full responsibility.
Maybe that to help like, finding this, it's just, I don't know. I
mean, what am I expecting? Like somebody would say, what do you
expect now? You can't expect that. I mean, we are you just
fooling yourselves if you think that anything, this is not a
giant charade is Yeah, but I just think is funny. You
probably want to see guys in a cage. And he's looking around he
never smiles he's got his class on and he's got to douchebag
behind the whole thing he says he didn't know he should be late
did was run for office.
The only thing he's missing is a vape. So what you got the
douchebag beard? You gotta be vaping vaporizer vape Oh, vape
Oh, as a meme, a meme that I find interesting. I could have
done a whole montage I'll just play this 30 seconds you tell me
what the meme is
following the capsized ships in Italy. Today in Greece a boat
runs aground near the island of roads at least three people
dead. Survivors clinging to the floating debris while rescuers
are trying to pull them ashore. A second boat carrying 300
people was reported sinking with reports claiming more fatalities
right now the international hotspot. Hello, everyone. I'm
Dan Clifford. As this migrant crisis is getting worse,
European officials from 28 countries are in Luxembourg for
emergency talks on how to handle this developing humanitarian
disaster.
Did you hear the mean? No. Mediterranean migrants? Oh yeah.
How about refugees? They're refugees. People are getting on
boats trying to get to Italy trying to get to Greece and
they've been called migrants outstanding catch migrant. But
the best is when they say Mediterranean migrants that's
even funnier. Like yeah, well. We're having a good time.
Not even I don't I wouldn't call it a meme though. I would call
it a euphemism a new euphemism. Okay. You forgive you for this a
good catch. Yeah. And break
and it is in the style guide because this is just a lie.
These are not migrants total lie. Refugees. But I love it
Mediterranean migrants animated miniature like we're in Club Med
hanging out. Ideas popped up from an undersea thing. Yeah,
let's go well, let's go migrate over to Italy.
Yeah, there's some good parties there. Earth Day.
I'd like to share with you some Earth Day. Just this is this is
okay. This is as much as I love Austin. I will say I love Texas.
This is the you know, every building has a little they are
their own little website internal website and, and you
know what else do they have their little messages? You'll
recall I they someone hung up a phony message about the about
the hamsters? Yeah, which was funny so but this is not a joke.
This was actually sent out to the residents calling all humans
Earth Day is right around the corner. Here's your chance to
step up your green game and show the earth some sweet lovin what?

Twitter and help us spread the word. Here are a few tips on how
to give a helping hand to Earth. Not only an Earth Day, but for

number two, chug it up in a trendy reusable water bottle.
All those other plastic bottles take 450 years to decompose. And
tip number three, quit with the snail mail and receive your
bills online with the digital age and save trees and gas.
Excuse me, it's gonna go shoot myself. Oh my goodness people.
This is really the mentality this is this is this is the
level of peep the thinking that people have about social issues.
Yeah, yeah, it's pretty pretty juvenile I think would be the
way to put it. Sophomore IQ is another word I
can be targeted.
retarded. That'd be a good one. And that's a word by the way.
You can ella no agenda. People know that this if we were on the
regular broadcast network not say that word. We could not say
the word retarded does not say the word you can say could not
say the word. And I got one last clip here that I want to play,
which is the clip which has another bad I think a backstory
I think is propaganda. FBI labs screwed up hair analysis. Yes,
I have this as well. Let's listen to what you have.
Tonight. The FBI
is notifying hundreds of convicts nationwide, that flawed
analysis of hair samples at the FBI lab may have resulted in
their convictions. Some of the defendants won't get the notice.
They've already been executed. At a
punch line.
I have a longer report. And I think I know what this is about
because it irritated me when I heard heard a little more
background. The Washington
Post is now reporting that the FBI admits some of its experts
gave flawed testimony and trials that spanned more than 20 years.
And they were part of an elite forensic unit and reportedly
overstated hair matches in almost all criminal cases in
which they presented testimony before the year 2000. And so
we're talking quite simply, these examiner's these elite
corps of examiners
don't CSI
at the FBI have admitted to not telling the whole truth but
skewing their testimony in favor of in large part the
prosecution. So they lied. I mean, that's, that's a fancy way
of saying they lied, went into trial, knowing that they were
fabricating information, and it may have in large part led to
the convictions right or at least partake, you know, played
a role in the conviction. Absolutely. So this was not some
admission or this epiphany that some of these examiner's had.
This discovery is being made by way of in large part, the
Innocence Project, which is just amazing. The Justice Department
helped, I guess, involve their perspective, right. So we did a
recruited to look into right, so the justice, the Justice
Department and the FBI now are working closely with the
innocent Innocence Project, as well as the National Association
of defense lawyers. And so they along with the Innocence Project
have said, Look, we have got to figure this out these
admissions, is there a reason? I mean, why why don't know why
don't stay very interesting. And we haven't seen why the Justice
Department and the FBI have been very wise to say, look, this is
a problem and we need your help and trying to get this resolved.
But this, I don't understand it because you had 28 investigators
in this elite unit, 26 of them have done things that were not
correct in these trials.
Okay, I think I know what's going on here. And it was
interesting to have them just sit there and go, Whoa, I don't
understand why what is very strange. Of course, the first
thing I looked at is the new CSI debut. Could it be something
like that? No. Of course, I went to the Innocence Project and the
Innocence Project, which I think is legit about looking at their
form 990 about 5 million in Yeah, I think so. I think it's
legit org. President Obama promised he was going to do the
mother of all clemency. 1000s of people shall receive clemency
and I believe that the FBI thought to themselves selves.
Why don't we get all the dirty laundry out now and covered up
with the president giving clemency to the it's only 300
people, but they're talking about that are still left and
the president can go with with my magic wand. I give you all
clemency.
I wonder about that. It is still a slap in the face of the FBI. I
have a couple of thoughts on this myself. One, I think is as
part of a liberal scheme to, you know, to be raised and screw up
any states that have the death penalty because this proves that
you this is the horrible to do that because you killed a bunch
of innocents. Oh, good ones. Good
one good one good one that will that the timing for that is
perfect with the Austin, the Boston the Boston trial.
Boston trial Sarna, right. There's a lot of that there's
that element. And there's also I think there's a there's probably
another dimension to this. And besides the entertainment
aspects. And if I could think of what it was, which I didn't
write down, I'm gonna have to give me some backup.
Well, okay. I believe the FBI. Yeah.
So I know this is this. The reason is because it's not a
direct thing. I have a question. This is somatic of the show
today. I'm sorry, I forgot that right in the spot. I out of
this, how come somebody who they claim lied. And it resulted in a
dead man, doesn't mean they don't get nailed for murder or a
jury or manslaughter. You know, if you accidentally run somebody
over on the street, you may be well intended. Not trying to run
the person over you're trying to avoid them, you kill somebody
else, or you get thrown in the slammer. People get thrown in
the slammer for a lot less than what these guys did. How come
there's never prosecution of this sort of malfeasance. They
had to remember the guy Ted Stevens, when he was railroaded
by the Justice Department. They did. And then it came out with
it with a judge said this is bad. You can't do this. This is
what you're doing is illegal. It's not even right. Nobody ever
pays the price for that. Well, that's
that's just like the you know, they arrested some coder.
Seriously, a software developer is now going to jail for the
flash crash of 2010 schlub because he created a little
program with existing code, and and he made some money, and the,
and the banks were doing this all the time, you know, millions
of a second, a million a 1,000th of a second. Now, no one's going
to jail. Just
this brings me to another point, which is really,
one second. Let's remember James Comey is cleaning up the FBI, I
still think he wants to clean everything up. Because we can't
have people catching on to the fact that the DNA stuff, it's
just not necessarily really all good, and that people will lie
doesn't work. And they lie. So this has to be I think we'll see
a clemency I agree with what you're saying about the death
penalty. But I think
well, there's also the element that's going on in Baltimore,
they're talking a big story that this brings us to my there's my
last complaint, it's all part of the same similar Governor anti
government complaint. Yes. So in Baltimore, they had another one
of these cops shootings and which is part of their you know,
I think body cam was it
a shooting? Or did he just fall out of the truck and broke his
back?
I don't know that. They grabbed the guy in the back was severed
somewhere he wasn't a shot, right? He was beat up and
crippled. Whatever the case I and I said it whatever the case
again.
You're tired now we didn't need to and if you're getting tired,
they're revealing the Baltimore Sun revealed that they've
already paid out in the last number of years. $5 million. Yes
to run like 100 different people that were beat up by the cops.
Or at
this point, your ticket out of poverty is to say, okay, which
kid Shall I have killed?
Yeah, right. You can get yourself a few 100,000 Who pays
this who pays this 5 million now the most cities are insured but
the insurance policies go way up on cities like Baltimore. That
means the taxpayers are paying for the crappy job that the cops
are doing by beating people up or that this the city
government's doing and not fixing his sewer or whatever it
is. Something caves in. Nobody ever gets called out on this.
The mayor never goes to jail. The cop who beat the guy up
never goes to jail gets fired or it goes on administrative leave.
There's never any prosecution of any of these people. Yet the
taxpayers are putting up with just dropping millions and
millions of dollars over this in competency it's just galling. No
wonder we're all broke John Cena for X diva the day took me a
while to get there but I've managed
you made it I will just leave you with one last thing that I
hope will call you as much as the gods in fact that I put it
on to the Monsanto category but it actually doesn't really
belong there according to the the information on this product.
Which I have not heard of. This is a new product John new
product and there's a little theme song that goes with the
product. Everybody singing everybody. Tom Davis That's
right the Tom potato John. It is a plant that has been modified.
So tomatoes grow on the vine and tomatoes underneath. It's hard
to believe that is not genetically modified. It's just
grasping, but it's the truth we've got that Tom Taito I wish
I had more to say so I can hit the final jingle
Tom Tayto yes
no the tom tom Tayto here comes Let's say it together now
dado just Tom Taylor not Tom. Tom. Tayto I'd said Tom Taito so
is the Tom Tayto the Monsanto What is it tastes not
from Monsanto. It's not from Monsanto. Okay, well, that would
make me they say it's just grafted and his magic had been
the it's the plant has gross tomatoes on the vine and
potatoes underneath. This
is bullcrap. This is not true.
Well, it looks tasty to me. And they got a jingle. So how could
it be wrong?
There's a Monsanto. Hillary's campaign manager Monsanto guy.
Yeah.
She's a she's a Monsanto product, actually. So she's a
hybrid. Last night, everybody, thank you very much for
