1
00:00:00,230 --> 00:00:01,070
Tell you, Mr. Producer.

2
00:00:02,010 --> 00:00:03,230
Adam Curry, John C.

3
00:00:03,370 --> 00:00:03,730
Dvorak.

4
00:00:03,770 --> 00:00:05,650
It's Sunday, February 9th, 2025.

5
00:00:05,990 --> 00:00:07,610
This is your award-winning Cuban Nation Media

6
00:00:07,610 --> 00:00:10,070
Assassination Episode 1737.

7
00:00:10,470 --> 00:00:12,010
This is no agenda.

8
00:00:13,430 --> 00:00:17,250
We're doubling down and broadcasting live from the

9
00:00:17,250 --> 00:00:19,230
heart of the Texas Hill Country right here

10
00:00:19,230 --> 00:00:20,770
in FEMA Region Number 6.

11
00:00:21,290 --> 00:00:22,230
In the morning, everybody.

12
00:00:22,390 --> 00:00:23,110
I'm Adam Curry.

13
00:00:23,390 --> 00:00:26,270
Canter Northern Silicon Valley where it's Super Bowl

14
00:00:26,270 --> 00:00:27,030
Sunday.

15
00:00:27,390 --> 00:00:28,010
I'm John C.

16
00:00:28,090 --> 00:00:28,470
Dvorak.

17
00:00:28,470 --> 00:00:30,670
It's Crackpot and Buzzkill.

18
00:00:30,850 --> 00:00:31,850
In the morning.

19
00:00:32,350 --> 00:00:32,630
That's right.

20
00:00:33,230 --> 00:00:34,050
Sports ball.

21
00:00:34,250 --> 00:00:35,250
Sports ball, everybody.

22
00:00:35,690 --> 00:00:36,570
Everybody's doing sports.

23
00:00:36,670 --> 00:00:39,090
Everyone is taking their donations and is betting

24
00:00:39,090 --> 00:00:39,690
on the game.

25
00:00:41,510 --> 00:00:43,550
That's what happened.

26
00:00:44,310 --> 00:00:44,970
I'll tell you this.

27
00:00:45,110 --> 00:00:46,270
It's choking the network.

28
00:00:46,930 --> 00:00:48,090
So Google TV.

29
00:00:48,330 --> 00:00:48,810
Yes.

30
00:00:49,150 --> 00:00:49,370
Oh.

31
00:00:49,510 --> 00:00:52,670
So they have a 4K feed for that.

32
00:00:52,750 --> 00:00:54,030
I think this is maybe the first time

33
00:00:54,030 --> 00:00:55,790
we've seen 4K for the Super Bowl.

34
00:00:56,050 --> 00:00:57,610
Is this, you mean YouTube TV?

35
00:00:57,610 --> 00:00:58,590
I'm sorry.

36
00:00:58,730 --> 00:00:58,830
Yeah.

37
00:00:58,910 --> 00:00:59,170
YouTube.

38
00:00:59,330 --> 00:00:59,570
Yeah.

39
00:01:00,050 --> 00:01:00,310
Yeah.

40
00:01:00,650 --> 00:01:01,090
Right.

41
00:01:01,590 --> 00:01:01,990
Yes.

42
00:01:02,090 --> 00:01:02,570
That's great.

43
00:01:02,650 --> 00:01:04,250
Because there is actually a Google TV, which

44
00:01:04,250 --> 00:01:04,930
is something else.

45
00:01:05,030 --> 00:01:05,890
Oh, yeah.

46
00:01:06,270 --> 00:01:07,590
It's just a bunch of videos.

47
00:01:07,790 --> 00:01:11,610
Anyway, the YouTube TV, which is a substitute

48
00:01:11,610 --> 00:01:15,230
for cable, is choking in its own vomit.

49
00:01:16,490 --> 00:01:17,450
What are you watching?

50
00:01:17,630 --> 00:01:19,470
Are you watching Fox or what are you

51
00:01:19,470 --> 00:01:19,790
watching?

52
00:01:20,510 --> 00:01:21,630
Well, it's on Fox.

53
00:01:21,750 --> 00:01:22,970
The Super Bowl is on Fox.

54
00:01:23,070 --> 00:01:23,330
Yeah.

55
00:01:23,810 --> 00:01:25,650
And so they have a 4K feed.

56
00:01:25,670 --> 00:01:25,990
Yeah.

57
00:01:26,090 --> 00:01:27,330
Plus the regular feed.

58
00:01:27,330 --> 00:01:30,370
And the 4K feed won't load.

59
00:01:30,490 --> 00:01:32,370
It's just choking and it gives you a

60
00:01:32,370 --> 00:01:32,650
message.

61
00:01:32,810 --> 00:01:34,830
It's like, oh, oh, something went wrong.

62
00:01:34,930 --> 00:01:35,630
Try again.

63
00:01:35,890 --> 00:01:36,050
Oh.

64
00:01:36,150 --> 00:01:39,030
And it actually says, oh, oh, U-H

65
00:01:39,030 --> 00:01:40,650
-O-U, uh-oh.

66
00:01:40,710 --> 00:01:41,250
Uh-oh.

67
00:01:42,030 --> 00:01:43,190
I'm watching now.

68
00:01:43,310 --> 00:01:44,970
I don't have 4K, but I have the

69
00:01:44,970 --> 00:01:45,650
regular feed.

70
00:01:46,730 --> 00:01:46,970
Yeah.

71
00:01:47,010 --> 00:01:49,010
Well, the 4K is just borked.

72
00:01:49,450 --> 00:01:51,010
And you pay extra for that.

73
00:01:51,110 --> 00:01:52,830
You pay extra for a borked feed.

74
00:01:53,070 --> 00:01:54,590
But you can just tell.

75
00:01:55,210 --> 00:01:56,870
Are you an upset consumer?

76
00:01:56,870 --> 00:01:58,010
Is that what I'm hearing here?

77
00:01:58,590 --> 00:02:00,950
You can tell that this is that it's

78
00:02:00,950 --> 00:02:02,110
choking the network.

79
00:02:02,350 --> 00:02:04,550
Comcast is probably, you know, everything is just

80
00:02:04,550 --> 00:02:07,229
being choked out by the Super Bowl interest.

81
00:02:07,410 --> 00:02:08,590
I'm sure at the beginning of the game

82
00:02:08,590 --> 00:02:09,389
would be really bad.

83
00:02:09,530 --> 00:02:09,690
Yeah.

84
00:02:09,930 --> 00:02:12,170
And it'll fade because the game, you know,

85
00:02:12,190 --> 00:02:14,030
we'll talk about the game later and make

86
00:02:14,030 --> 00:02:14,670
our predictions.

87
00:02:15,070 --> 00:02:15,390
Yes.

88
00:02:15,710 --> 00:02:18,230
And it will, should, I doubt if it's

89
00:02:18,230 --> 00:02:19,350
going to be one of those close games,

90
00:02:19,470 --> 00:02:20,310
but it could be.

91
00:02:20,630 --> 00:02:24,330
And so people will bail out and then

92
00:02:24,330 --> 00:02:25,410
you'll get the feed will come through.

93
00:02:25,410 --> 00:02:30,050
This whole streaming idea for TV is a

94
00:02:30,050 --> 00:02:31,550
bad idea.

95
00:02:32,730 --> 00:02:33,330
They'll get it.

96
00:02:34,330 --> 00:02:37,230
Because I can turn on, I can flip

97
00:02:37,230 --> 00:02:38,250
over to the antenna.

98
00:02:38,570 --> 00:02:38,810
Yeah.

99
00:02:38,930 --> 00:02:41,030
Quality is just as good, if not better.

100
00:02:41,910 --> 00:02:44,530
I have an antenna and it works just

101
00:02:44,530 --> 00:02:45,050
fine.

102
00:02:45,070 --> 00:02:45,630
I tell you.

103
00:02:45,930 --> 00:02:46,530
It does.

104
00:02:47,470 --> 00:02:48,310
And it doesn't put it.

105
00:02:48,350 --> 00:02:50,370
And you yourself is the one who went

106
00:02:50,370 --> 00:02:53,230
on about in some post some years back.

107
00:02:53,370 --> 00:02:53,650
Yeah.

108
00:02:53,650 --> 00:02:55,790
About how well the problem with, you know,

109
00:02:55,890 --> 00:02:58,570
the internet is that everything's one to one.

110
00:02:58,750 --> 00:02:58,870
Yeah.

111
00:02:58,890 --> 00:03:01,330
For every person you add to your audience,

112
00:03:01,410 --> 00:03:02,470
it costs you more money.

113
00:03:02,590 --> 00:03:03,950
That's always been the problem.

114
00:03:04,130 --> 00:03:10,370
But the whole architecture of Netflix and Amazon

115
00:03:10,370 --> 00:03:13,490
and Google is that they have a head,

116
00:03:13,570 --> 00:03:16,030
you know, they have servers right there sitting

117
00:03:16,030 --> 00:03:17,890
connected directly to your connection.

118
00:03:17,950 --> 00:03:19,550
If it's all done right.

119
00:03:20,370 --> 00:03:21,990
But even that may be insufficient.

120
00:03:22,730 --> 00:03:24,230
It may be insufficient.

121
00:03:24,650 --> 00:03:27,110
If you want to change the number, like

122
00:03:27,110 --> 00:03:28,750
how many people, you know, yes, we do.

123
00:03:29,250 --> 00:03:31,490
Netflix has a server on the server.

124
00:03:31,710 --> 00:03:31,830
Sure.

125
00:03:31,930 --> 00:03:33,010
A server on the server.

126
00:03:33,410 --> 00:03:35,370
And so they have these little outlets.

127
00:03:35,450 --> 00:03:36,570
Of course, if you want to watch something

128
00:03:36,570 --> 00:03:38,190
obscure, it has to go to the main

129
00:03:38,190 --> 00:03:38,570
office.

130
00:03:38,650 --> 00:03:40,270
It's not everything is on there.

131
00:03:40,370 --> 00:03:42,010
Bring back the M-Bone people.

132
00:03:42,910 --> 00:03:44,430
The whole thing is a joke.

133
00:03:44,490 --> 00:03:45,350
Remember the M-Bone?

134
00:03:45,810 --> 00:03:46,070
Yeah.

135
00:03:46,110 --> 00:03:47,330
I remember the M-Bone.

136
00:03:47,430 --> 00:03:49,270
That was another failed attempt.

137
00:03:49,270 --> 00:03:52,450
Well, because nobody had the gear for the

138
00:03:52,450 --> 00:03:52,790
M-Bone.

139
00:03:52,870 --> 00:03:55,770
But the M-Bone was a good idea

140
00:03:55,770 --> 00:03:56,530
at the time.

141
00:03:57,590 --> 00:03:59,010
It's just, it went nowhere.

142
00:03:59,450 --> 00:04:02,370
You needed a Spark workstation.

143
00:04:04,050 --> 00:04:05,610
Yeah, it was the Spark.

144
00:04:05,610 --> 00:04:07,450
I can't do it with Windows 11.

145
00:04:07,550 --> 00:04:08,830
I can't get on the M-Bone.

146
00:04:09,010 --> 00:04:09,770
It doesn't work.

147
00:04:10,210 --> 00:04:12,490
There's probably five people out there who remember

148
00:04:12,490 --> 00:04:13,270
the M-Bone.

149
00:04:13,270 --> 00:04:19,089
So streaming works when the demand is within

150
00:04:19,089 --> 00:04:21,290
millions, millions of people.

151
00:04:21,490 --> 00:04:24,370
But if you got to 100 million people,

152
00:04:24,970 --> 00:04:27,210
or once you go to 4K, where you

153
00:04:27,210 --> 00:04:29,810
have to pretty much multiply everything by a

154
00:04:29,810 --> 00:04:32,110
factor of five in terms of bandwidth necessary,

155
00:04:33,030 --> 00:04:37,250
it changes the way things—the model doesn't work.

156
00:04:37,410 --> 00:04:39,870
That's because they're putting all their CapEx expenditure

157
00:04:39,870 --> 00:04:41,310
into AI.

158
00:04:41,990 --> 00:04:43,990
They should be putting the money into streaming.

159
00:04:45,010 --> 00:04:47,530
Because that's a real—I mean, I try not

160
00:04:47,530 --> 00:04:50,290
to pay any money to anybody, but I

161
00:04:50,290 --> 00:04:51,590
pay for YouTube TV.

162
00:04:51,690 --> 00:04:52,430
What is it up to now?

163
00:04:52,510 --> 00:04:53,450
70 bucks a month?

164
00:04:53,470 --> 00:04:55,070
Oh, it keeps going up because it costs

165
00:04:55,070 --> 00:04:56,290
too much money to do it.

166
00:04:56,610 --> 00:04:57,830
They're probably losing money.

167
00:04:58,050 --> 00:04:59,930
Well, they're probably not losing money, those guys.

168
00:05:00,230 --> 00:05:03,390
But the point is, if Google, who is

169
00:05:03,390 --> 00:05:07,370
the initiator of large-scale systems for search,

170
00:05:07,430 --> 00:05:11,790
for example, and have networking capabilities that most

171
00:05:11,790 --> 00:05:14,910
people can only dream of, can't manage the

172
00:05:14,910 --> 00:05:19,270
4K stream over a Comcast 800 megabit line—

173
00:05:20,230 --> 00:05:22,430
I remember when we had rabbit ears and

174
00:05:22,430 --> 00:05:23,350
life was good.

175
00:05:25,230 --> 00:05:27,590
Well, actually, rabbit ears work quite well with

176
00:05:27,590 --> 00:05:31,370
high-definition digital television.

177
00:05:31,370 --> 00:05:35,290
You know, I'm looking at my feed right

178
00:05:35,290 --> 00:05:38,710
now, and it's very— I knew this would

179
00:05:38,710 --> 00:05:39,070
happen.

180
00:05:39,130 --> 00:05:40,190
No, but it's very—oh, no.

181
00:05:40,210 --> 00:05:43,350
It's very jarring to see the football field

182
00:05:43,350 --> 00:05:45,210
in the background with Speaker of the House

183
00:05:45,210 --> 00:05:46,610
Mike Johnson in the foreground.

184
00:05:46,870 --> 00:05:48,850
It's like my brain can't wrap around it.

185
00:05:49,570 --> 00:05:50,930
It's like, what is he doing there on

186
00:05:50,930 --> 00:05:52,410
the 50-yard line?

187
00:05:54,090 --> 00:05:56,910
Anyway, the reason why I have it on

188
00:05:56,910 --> 00:06:00,550
is because President Trump will be doubling down

189
00:06:00,550 --> 00:06:02,030
in his pregame interview.

190
00:06:02,370 --> 00:06:04,990
Doubling down on his mandate.

191
00:06:05,270 --> 00:06:06,310
Doubling down on what?

192
00:06:06,330 --> 00:06:09,170
On his mandate to shutter these agencies.

193
00:06:09,670 --> 00:06:12,190
Oh, well, that's— I guess they've— I don't

194
00:06:12,190 --> 00:06:14,010
know how he can double down when he's

195
00:06:14,010 --> 00:06:15,410
already going at full tilt.

196
00:06:16,690 --> 00:06:19,190
Allow me to get you into your clips

197
00:06:19,190 --> 00:06:21,430
with a super clip, a mini super clip

198
00:06:21,430 --> 00:06:21,970
of some magnitude.

199
00:06:22,490 --> 00:06:24,930
Before you do that, since you just teased

200
00:06:24,930 --> 00:06:26,530
that, what series of clips?

201
00:06:26,550 --> 00:06:27,250
I have about four.

202
00:06:28,370 --> 00:06:30,290
Well, when I play the super cut, you'll

203
00:06:30,290 --> 00:06:31,730
know exactly what to play, and I'm going

204
00:06:31,730 --> 00:06:32,810
to let you start it off.

205
00:06:33,450 --> 00:06:34,250
Stand by.

206
00:06:34,390 --> 00:06:35,190
Thanks for joining us.

207
00:06:35,290 --> 00:06:37,590
We begin tonight with Musk and Big Balls.

208
00:06:37,650 --> 00:06:38,290
Big Balls.

209
00:06:38,350 --> 00:06:39,110
Big Balls.

210
00:06:39,110 --> 00:06:41,010
Big Balls, who work for Elon Musk's so

211
00:06:41,010 --> 00:06:43,010
-called Department of Government Efficiency, DOGE.

212
00:06:43,170 --> 00:06:44,630
In one case of the Big Balls kid,

213
00:06:44,730 --> 00:06:45,510
a literal teenager.

214
00:06:45,790 --> 00:06:47,170
Big Balls online.

215
00:06:47,390 --> 00:06:49,990
Big Balls here that Katie's talking about.

216
00:06:50,090 --> 00:06:52,090
A 19-year-old that goes by the

217
00:06:52,090 --> 00:06:53,630
username Big Balls.

218
00:06:53,650 --> 00:06:54,810
So that would be one way that we

219
00:06:54,810 --> 00:06:55,430
could refer to him.

220
00:06:55,430 --> 00:06:58,310
Young computer whizzers, whizzes, the aforementioned Big Balls.

221
00:06:58,370 --> 00:07:00,590
Because who among us doesn't feel better about

222
00:07:00,590 --> 00:07:03,630
Big Balls, Big Balls, Big Balls in charge

223
00:07:03,630 --> 00:07:05,530
of American air traffic control?

224
00:07:06,630 --> 00:07:09,230
I love the times we're in right now.

225
00:07:09,870 --> 00:07:12,770
I think you started, you managed to, I

226
00:07:12,770 --> 00:07:13,710
don't know how you did it, but you

227
00:07:13,710 --> 00:07:16,090
started the show off with the lowest common

228
00:07:16,090 --> 00:07:20,210
denominator juvenile material you could.

229
00:07:20,390 --> 00:07:23,910
But it's necessary because everyone loves saying Big

230
00:07:23,910 --> 00:07:24,350
Balls.

231
00:07:24,410 --> 00:07:25,130
Everyone loves it.

232
00:07:25,870 --> 00:07:26,730
It's hilarious.

233
00:07:27,310 --> 00:07:27,890
It's hilarious.

234
00:07:28,570 --> 00:07:29,210
Everyone loves it.

235
00:07:29,290 --> 00:07:30,990
I only have the one clip, which is

236
00:07:30,990 --> 00:07:32,170
mocking the whole thing.

237
00:07:32,670 --> 00:07:34,290
I do have the intro clip, which is,

238
00:07:34,390 --> 00:07:35,910
this is the one that was in that

239
00:07:35,910 --> 00:07:37,630
mix, which is Big Balls CNN.

240
00:07:37,870 --> 00:07:39,330
This is a woman on CNN.

241
00:07:39,810 --> 00:07:41,790
I believe she's the one who started it

242
00:07:41,790 --> 00:07:44,030
off, where once she said it on CNN,

243
00:07:44,270 --> 00:07:45,450
everybody could say it.

244
00:07:45,590 --> 00:07:47,270
Yes, so this is a 19-year-old

245
00:07:47,270 --> 00:07:50,750
high school graduate who has used the unfortunate

246
00:07:50,750 --> 00:07:53,210
nickname Big Balls online.

247
00:07:53,950 --> 00:07:55,390
That's the lady from Wired.

248
00:07:55,630 --> 00:07:57,430
They're the ones that have done this outstanding

249
00:07:57,430 --> 00:07:58,370
reporting, John.

250
00:07:59,210 --> 00:08:00,690
That's just fabulous reporting.

251
00:08:00,810 --> 00:08:03,270
They've done all the reporting on the Doge

252
00:08:03,270 --> 00:08:03,610
team.

253
00:08:04,230 --> 00:08:05,730
The Big Balls, the Big Balls.

254
00:08:05,970 --> 00:08:09,550
I just love the most tepid and demure

255
00:08:09,550 --> 00:08:14,170
person who pronounces Big Balls is Anderson Cooper

256
00:08:14,170 --> 00:08:14,830
of all people.

257
00:08:15,010 --> 00:08:15,810
Big Balls.

258
00:08:16,290 --> 00:08:18,150
Everyone else is like, Big Balls.

259
00:08:18,150 --> 00:08:20,130
I get to say Big Balls on television.

260
00:08:20,130 --> 00:08:22,290
Anderson Cooper's like, Big Balls.

261
00:08:23,290 --> 00:08:27,150
Yeah, well, this is an embarrassment to all

262
00:08:27,150 --> 00:08:27,670
television.

263
00:08:28,010 --> 00:08:30,610
A guy comes on, one of the many,

264
00:08:31,010 --> 00:08:32,710
and I wish we could get this down,

265
00:08:32,809 --> 00:08:34,110
the Trump impersonators.

266
00:08:34,690 --> 00:08:36,090
Yeah, this guy is good.

267
00:08:36,190 --> 00:08:37,270
I'm glad you got this one.

268
00:08:37,590 --> 00:08:39,750
He's pretty good, and here's his little take

269
00:08:39,750 --> 00:08:40,490
on the whole bit.

270
00:08:40,690 --> 00:08:44,050
This is a fake Trump doing Trump and

271
00:08:44,050 --> 00:08:45,670
his take on the Big Balls, and there's

272
00:08:45,670 --> 00:08:46,930
some good gags in here.

273
00:08:46,930 --> 00:08:49,670
This is your favorite president, and I'm very

274
00:08:49,670 --> 00:08:52,210
sorry to see Big Balls leaving Doge.

275
00:08:52,310 --> 00:08:53,950
Big Balls did tremendous work.

276
00:08:54,590 --> 00:08:56,270
Americans voted for Big Balls.

277
00:08:56,350 --> 00:08:58,010
They voted for me, and they call me

278
00:08:58,010 --> 00:08:59,110
Biggest Balls.

279
00:08:59,130 --> 00:09:00,290
You know what I'm talking about.

280
00:09:00,910 --> 00:09:01,710
Fake news.

281
00:09:01,770 --> 00:09:04,170
CNN is very unhappy with the name Big

282
00:09:04,170 --> 00:09:04,550
Balls.

283
00:09:04,590 --> 00:09:06,690
They wouldn't know Big Balls if it hit

284
00:09:06,690 --> 00:09:09,190
him in the face, except Anderson Cooper.

285
00:09:09,490 --> 00:09:10,770
You know what I'm talking about.

286
00:09:11,210 --> 00:09:13,130
But I want to recognize some of the

287
00:09:13,130 --> 00:09:15,450
other fantastic people over at Doge.

288
00:09:15,450 --> 00:09:16,970
Pat McCratch.

289
00:09:17,110 --> 00:09:18,990
Pat is doing a wonderful job.

290
00:09:19,110 --> 00:09:20,370
I've known him for a long time.

291
00:09:20,910 --> 00:09:22,150
Phil McCracken.

292
00:09:22,310 --> 00:09:25,710
Phil is lighting it up, doing wonderful work.

293
00:09:26,450 --> 00:09:27,370
Holden McGroin.

294
00:09:27,490 --> 00:09:30,910
Holden McGroin is really carrying his weight, that

295
00:09:30,910 --> 00:09:31,850
much I can tell you.

296
00:09:31,990 --> 00:09:33,110
And Michael Hunt.

297
00:09:33,290 --> 00:09:34,610
We've known Mike for a long time.

298
00:09:34,750 --> 00:09:36,450
He goes by Mike, and we've known him

299
00:09:36,450 --> 00:09:37,290
for a long time.

300
00:09:37,610 --> 00:09:41,750
But Americans voted overwhelmingly for Big Balls.

301
00:09:41,770 --> 00:09:43,290
You know that when they elected me.

302
00:09:43,290 --> 00:09:46,250
And while Big Balls may not be working

303
00:09:46,250 --> 00:09:49,970
at Doge anymore, Biggest Balls is still working

304
00:09:49,970 --> 00:09:50,810
as your president.

305
00:09:51,090 --> 00:09:54,610
We are making America ballsy again, and we

306
00:09:54,610 --> 00:09:56,810
are making America great again.

307
00:09:57,090 --> 00:09:58,170
That will continue.

308
00:09:58,350 --> 00:09:59,390
That's not going to stop.

309
00:09:59,510 --> 00:10:00,610
We will never give up.

310
00:10:00,710 --> 00:10:01,790
We will never surrender.

311
00:10:01,950 --> 00:10:03,410
We will never back down.

312
00:10:03,750 --> 00:10:06,490
And we will make America great again.

313
00:10:06,610 --> 00:10:07,210
Believe me.

314
00:10:07,350 --> 00:10:09,070
It's kind of sad when people in the

315
00:10:09,070 --> 00:10:11,770
troll room are arguing over whether this is

316
00:10:11,770 --> 00:10:12,650
AI or not.

317
00:10:12,650 --> 00:10:14,310
It's sad because this is one of the

318
00:10:14,310 --> 00:10:17,350
best impersonator voices.

319
00:10:17,470 --> 00:10:19,290
Obviously, you can tell it's not the president,

320
00:10:19,510 --> 00:10:21,350
but he does a great job.

321
00:10:21,490 --> 00:10:22,990
Everything that he does in there is just

322
00:10:22,990 --> 00:10:23,430
good.

323
00:10:24,230 --> 00:10:26,470
Yeah, there's about five guys who are doing

324
00:10:26,470 --> 00:10:27,250
this, and they're all...

325
00:10:27,970 --> 00:10:30,370
When you get the cadence right, it's pretty

326
00:10:30,370 --> 00:10:30,750
funny.

327
00:10:31,150 --> 00:10:31,350
Yeah.

328
00:10:33,690 --> 00:10:36,230
Maybe just before you get into it, you

329
00:10:36,230 --> 00:10:38,110
want to do Doge stuff, which I think

330
00:10:38,110 --> 00:10:39,370
that's where you'd want to start, right?

331
00:10:39,990 --> 00:10:41,070
That would be fine with me.

332
00:10:41,630 --> 00:10:43,310
You know, as predicted...

333
00:10:43,310 --> 00:10:45,090
With his low donations, like you said, you

334
00:10:45,090 --> 00:10:46,230
don't have to start anywhere.

335
00:10:50,810 --> 00:10:53,150
My hate listen did not disappoint.

336
00:10:54,190 --> 00:10:56,030
Yes, I saw this.

337
00:10:56,150 --> 00:10:57,190
You're talking about the...

338
00:10:57,190 --> 00:10:58,640
By the way, I thought that...

339
00:10:59,610 --> 00:11:01,250
You know, I don't watch these guys.

340
00:11:01,370 --> 00:11:02,090
I don't watch them.

341
00:11:02,130 --> 00:11:02,890
I only listen to them.

342
00:11:02,910 --> 00:11:04,370
I didn't even know they were doing video.

343
00:11:05,950 --> 00:11:08,450
Well, I always thought they did video in

344
00:11:08,450 --> 00:11:11,770
a settee, where they were seated and...

345
00:11:11,770 --> 00:11:13,050
No, no, because...

346
00:11:13,050 --> 00:11:15,170
She's got the cans on her ears.

347
00:11:15,390 --> 00:11:16,990
No, but they always start...

348
00:11:16,990 --> 00:11:19,290
We're talking about the Pivot podcast with Prof

349
00:11:19,290 --> 00:11:20,530
G and Kara Swisher.

350
00:11:20,610 --> 00:11:24,070
No, they always start off talking about where

351
00:11:24,070 --> 00:11:26,050
they are, and Prof G is like, I'm

352
00:11:26,050 --> 00:11:28,290
in London today, my house here.

353
00:11:28,470 --> 00:11:29,250
I'm in Dubai.

354
00:11:29,570 --> 00:11:32,030
I'm visiting for the soccer match.

355
00:11:32,110 --> 00:11:34,150
And Kara's like, I'm in D.C. Oh,

356
00:11:34,190 --> 00:11:36,250
no, we're renovating the house in D.C.

357
00:11:36,270 --> 00:11:37,610
I'm in San Francisco.

358
00:11:37,710 --> 00:11:39,030
I have a secret project.

359
00:11:39,030 --> 00:11:40,130
I'm here in Los Angeles.

360
00:11:40,350 --> 00:11:42,350
They are the biggest, elitist...

361
00:11:42,350 --> 00:11:43,350
Oh, always.

362
00:11:44,770 --> 00:11:45,670
I'm in New York.

363
00:11:45,790 --> 00:11:47,830
Thank you, Scott, for letting me use your

364
00:11:47,830 --> 00:11:49,530
apartment in New York.

365
00:11:49,770 --> 00:11:52,290
They're always talking about where they are and

366
00:11:52,290 --> 00:11:53,610
what house they're in now.

367
00:11:53,990 --> 00:11:55,570
They apparently each have at least two or

368
00:11:55,570 --> 00:11:55,930
three...

369
00:11:55,930 --> 00:11:56,990
Oh, I'm in Miami.

370
00:11:58,010 --> 00:11:59,570
Galloway has homes in Miami.

371
00:11:59,750 --> 00:12:00,310
Oh, it's everywhere.

372
00:12:01,090 --> 00:12:01,510
Oh, yeah.

373
00:12:01,710 --> 00:12:02,590
Oh, it's amazing.

374
00:12:03,410 --> 00:12:04,590
So there was a clip.

375
00:12:04,810 --> 00:12:06,150
I know which clip you're going to play,

376
00:12:06,150 --> 00:12:08,290
but there was another clip that somebody posted

377
00:12:08,290 --> 00:12:11,570
in one of the threads where Galloway is

378
00:12:11,570 --> 00:12:13,810
bragging about how, what a smart move it

379
00:12:13,810 --> 00:12:16,250
was to bet $385,000.

380
00:12:16,670 --> 00:12:17,290
Oh, yeah, yeah.

381
00:12:17,650 --> 00:12:19,890
I think I had that clip a long...

382
00:12:19,890 --> 00:12:20,910
And we didn't play it.

383
00:12:21,470 --> 00:12:22,670
Yeah, that's at the election.

384
00:12:22,990 --> 00:12:25,290
He said, you know, this is a, you

385
00:12:25,290 --> 00:12:25,790
know...

386
00:12:25,790 --> 00:12:27,930
Sure thing, a million dollars payout.

387
00:12:27,950 --> 00:12:28,330
No, no.

388
00:12:28,410 --> 00:12:30,130
But he was saying, because, you know, he's

389
00:12:30,130 --> 00:12:32,070
an investor, very successful investor.

390
00:12:32,610 --> 00:12:33,310
Very successful.

391
00:12:34,010 --> 00:12:34,810
Extremely successful.

392
00:12:34,810 --> 00:12:39,010
Yeah, a successful investor throwing $385,000 on

393
00:12:39,010 --> 00:12:41,970
a presidential bid bet for Kamala Harris.

394
00:12:42,790 --> 00:12:43,870
Okay, that's smart.

395
00:12:44,070 --> 00:12:45,750
The clip that is more interesting, I don't

396
00:12:45,750 --> 00:12:47,770
have that one either, is where he says,

397
00:12:48,130 --> 00:12:50,490
you know, okay, so I lost $400,000.

398
00:12:50,810 --> 00:12:52,470
For me, that's just a bad hour or

399
00:12:52,470 --> 00:12:52,670
so.

400
00:12:52,770 --> 00:12:54,030
But, you know, it doesn't really move the

401
00:12:54,030 --> 00:12:54,630
needle for me.

402
00:12:54,750 --> 00:12:56,110
This is how these people talk.

403
00:12:56,150 --> 00:12:56,790
They're amazing.

404
00:12:57,950 --> 00:12:58,710
They're amazing.

405
00:12:58,830 --> 00:13:00,530
All right, let's just play this where they

406
00:13:00,530 --> 00:13:02,850
become completely unhinged over Doge.

407
00:13:02,850 --> 00:13:05,430
And the question is, a lot of them

408
00:13:05,430 --> 00:13:06,650
are like, what do we do?

409
00:13:06,990 --> 00:13:08,470
They're literally asking me, what do we do

410
00:13:08,470 --> 00:13:09,370
to stop him?

411
00:13:10,330 --> 00:13:10,890
I was like...

412
00:13:10,890 --> 00:13:11,030
I'm sorry.

413
00:13:11,150 --> 00:13:12,250
This is the one I want to play.

414
00:13:12,470 --> 00:13:14,190
I want to know who are these...

415
00:13:14,190 --> 00:13:14,490
But wait, wait.

416
00:13:15,090 --> 00:13:16,670
Are you going to play that other one

417
00:13:16,670 --> 00:13:17,210
still?

418
00:13:17,390 --> 00:13:18,850
Yeah, I'll play...

419
00:13:18,850 --> 00:13:20,230
People are asking me...

420
00:13:20,230 --> 00:13:21,510
Yes, I'll play that...

421
00:13:21,510 --> 00:13:24,290
Because I'm the great expert on Musk.

422
00:13:24,430 --> 00:13:25,690
Well, you might as well play it now.

423
00:13:26,050 --> 00:13:28,070
And the question is, a lot of them

424
00:13:28,070 --> 00:13:29,270
are like, what do we do?

425
00:13:29,670 --> 00:13:31,110
They're literally asking me, what do we do

426
00:13:31,110 --> 00:13:32,010
to stop him?

427
00:13:32,010 --> 00:13:33,070
People are...

428
00:13:33,070 --> 00:13:34,530
Oh, by the way, Galloway.

429
00:13:34,710 --> 00:13:34,950
Oh, yeah.

430
00:13:34,990 --> 00:13:37,190
And I had at least five senators call

431
00:13:37,190 --> 00:13:37,410
me.

432
00:13:37,990 --> 00:13:38,290
Oh, yeah.

433
00:13:38,370 --> 00:13:41,190
No, they are the creme de la creme

434
00:13:41,190 --> 00:13:41,870
of the elite.

435
00:13:42,090 --> 00:13:43,010
The people are unbelievable.

436
00:13:43,410 --> 00:13:44,610
If I have a problem, who are you

437
00:13:44,610 --> 00:13:45,090
going to call?

438
00:13:46,010 --> 00:13:46,610
Kara Swisher.

439
00:13:47,390 --> 00:13:48,350
I was like...

440
00:13:48,990 --> 00:13:51,010
I was like, you don't.

441
00:13:51,110 --> 00:13:53,290
You actually don't have the means to do

442
00:13:53,290 --> 00:13:53,630
so.

443
00:13:53,830 --> 00:13:56,230
Because these poor people are in these agencies.

444
00:13:56,430 --> 00:13:58,330
And when these idiots come in, these children,

445
00:13:58,690 --> 00:14:01,010
these arrogant little pricks come in and say,

446
00:14:01,010 --> 00:14:02,630
we're going to call the federal marshals or

447
00:14:02,630 --> 00:14:05,430
the president has ordered you to step aside.

448
00:14:05,750 --> 00:14:06,750
Hold on, stop it.

449
00:14:08,210 --> 00:14:10,090
How does she know they're arrogant little pricks?

450
00:14:10,150 --> 00:14:11,730
Has she met even one of them?

451
00:14:12,290 --> 00:14:13,290
Well, they work with Elon.

452
00:14:13,470 --> 00:14:14,470
How could they not be?

453
00:14:16,070 --> 00:14:18,310
How do you call somebody arrogant little prick

454
00:14:18,310 --> 00:14:19,290
when you've never met them?

455
00:14:19,370 --> 00:14:20,350
I think it's...

456
00:14:20,350 --> 00:14:21,550
I think that they can sue.

457
00:14:23,270 --> 00:14:24,630
We have big balls.

458
00:14:24,790 --> 00:14:25,570
We have big balls.

459
00:14:25,750 --> 00:14:27,030
You can't just say we're little pricks.

460
00:14:27,190 --> 00:14:27,550
No, no, no.

461
00:14:27,590 --> 00:14:29,990
The president has ordered you to step aside.

462
00:14:29,990 --> 00:14:31,610
They kind of have to.

463
00:14:32,030 --> 00:14:35,290
You have to be resistant and be walked

464
00:14:35,290 --> 00:14:36,290
out by security.

465
00:14:36,650 --> 00:14:38,770
And then security doesn't know which one to

466
00:14:38,770 --> 00:14:39,430
listen to.

467
00:14:39,730 --> 00:14:39,830
Right?

468
00:14:41,110 --> 00:14:42,030
I'd like to see all...

469
00:14:42,770 --> 00:14:45,030
This is my favorite because he...

470
00:14:45,750 --> 00:14:47,190
I listen to the whole podcast.

471
00:14:47,390 --> 00:14:48,950
And at a certain point, it's like, I

472
00:14:48,950 --> 00:14:50,290
advise all these people who...

473
00:14:50,290 --> 00:14:51,550
Because they don't just call Kara, they call

474
00:14:51,550 --> 00:14:52,050
Prof G.

475
00:14:52,150 --> 00:14:53,390
They're very successful Prof G.

476
00:14:53,930 --> 00:14:56,450
And he said, you need to go down

477
00:14:56,450 --> 00:14:57,850
there and you need to get arrested.

478
00:14:57,850 --> 00:14:59,770
You need to get arrested to make the

479
00:14:59,770 --> 00:15:00,070
point.

480
00:15:00,510 --> 00:15:02,190
Whatever it is, 48 or 49 U.S.

481
00:15:02,250 --> 00:15:04,070
Senators and any Republicans that want to join.

482
00:15:04,210 --> 00:15:05,670
I'd like to see a couple hundred members

483
00:15:05,670 --> 00:15:07,950
of Congress go to the fucking building where

484
00:15:07,950 --> 00:15:11,030
this is and demand to go in and

485
00:15:11,030 --> 00:15:12,710
physically stop this and let them...

486
00:15:12,710 --> 00:15:13,030
What?

487
00:15:13,890 --> 00:15:14,690
What kind of language is that?

488
00:15:14,690 --> 00:15:16,130
These guys are just cussing.

489
00:15:16,970 --> 00:15:19,490
The whole podcast is full of cussing because

490
00:15:19,490 --> 00:15:21,870
they don't have any other words.

491
00:15:22,130 --> 00:15:23,850
Go to the fucking building where this is

492
00:15:23,850 --> 00:15:27,130
and demand to go in and physically stop

493
00:15:27,130 --> 00:15:28,370
this and let them arrest you.

494
00:15:28,770 --> 00:15:29,590
Let them arrest you.

495
00:15:30,730 --> 00:15:31,110
Yes.

496
00:15:31,550 --> 00:15:33,690
Anyway, let's go to the Prof G.

497
00:15:33,890 --> 00:15:34,150
Cavalier.

498
00:15:34,330 --> 00:15:35,630
The Prof G meltdown.

499
00:15:35,830 --> 00:15:38,430
I want to know who are these young,

500
00:15:38,630 --> 00:15:42,810
highly intelligent, highly motivated zealots following him into

501
00:15:42,810 --> 00:15:45,630
these buildings and shutting off payments to schools

502
00:15:45,630 --> 00:15:46,290
and Head Starts.

503
00:15:46,330 --> 00:15:47,110
I want to know their names.

504
00:15:47,310 --> 00:15:50,990
Well, the local officials are trying to make

505
00:15:50,990 --> 00:15:51,510
that official.

506
00:15:51,670 --> 00:15:54,810
The newly installed Trump are threatening people for

507
00:15:54,810 --> 00:15:55,630
naming their names.

508
00:15:55,710 --> 00:15:56,370
Just so you know.

509
00:15:56,510 --> 00:15:57,470
Go ahead.

510
00:15:57,610 --> 00:15:59,650
Yeah, but they can unmask CIA officers who

511
00:15:59,650 --> 00:16:02,470
put their lives in harm's way to try

512
00:16:02,470 --> 00:16:05,070
and keep our Americans safe.

513
00:16:05,510 --> 00:16:06,590
I want to know who their names are.

514
00:16:06,710 --> 00:16:07,930
And I want to see Democratic governors saying,

515
00:16:08,030 --> 00:16:09,190
I'm going to do everything I can in

516
00:16:09,190 --> 00:16:11,590
my power to use the full faith and

517
00:16:11,590 --> 00:16:12,850
to the letter of the law to put

518
00:16:12,850 --> 00:16:13,770
you folks in prison.

519
00:16:13,990 --> 00:16:15,430
I think what you're doing is trespassing.

520
00:16:15,650 --> 00:16:16,890
I think this is a coup.

521
00:16:17,330 --> 00:16:20,810
And be clear, just because the new insurrectionist

522
00:16:20,810 --> 00:16:24,630
who was elected, I don't believe this is

523
00:16:24,630 --> 00:16:25,010
legal.

524
00:16:25,010 --> 00:16:28,030
And I'm going to hold the people accountable

525
00:16:28,030 --> 00:16:30,310
who are trespassing and part of a coup

526
00:16:30,310 --> 00:16:34,090
accountable to just sit back and say, this

527
00:16:34,090 --> 00:16:34,390
is on.

528
00:16:34,750 --> 00:16:35,570
This is horrible.

529
00:16:35,710 --> 00:16:36,610
And this is unlawful.

530
00:16:37,050 --> 00:16:40,970
We need to go gangster here and say,

531
00:16:41,110 --> 00:16:45,670
look, hey, man, I'm white.

532
00:16:45,750 --> 00:16:46,750
We're going to go gangsta.

533
00:16:46,910 --> 00:16:47,710
This is horrible.

534
00:16:47,830 --> 00:16:48,750
And this is unlawful.

535
00:16:49,410 --> 00:16:52,990
We need to go gangster here and say

536
00:16:52,990 --> 00:16:53,510
gangster.

537
00:16:53,510 --> 00:16:57,730
Look, we are not getting around this stuff.

538
00:16:58,150 --> 00:16:59,210
This is illegal.

539
00:16:59,210 --> 00:17:00,070
This is a coup.

540
00:17:00,210 --> 00:17:02,210
This is the unlawful seizure of power.

541
00:17:03,230 --> 00:17:04,869
We are not going to engage in these

542
00:17:04,869 --> 00:17:09,130
bullshit, ridiculous arguments over, you know, Gaza and

543
00:17:09,130 --> 00:17:09,770
Greenland.

544
00:17:10,069 --> 00:17:12,329
We are going to hold the people accountable.

545
00:17:12,490 --> 00:17:13,089
Here are their names.

546
00:17:13,170 --> 00:17:13,869
Here are their faces.

547
00:17:14,390 --> 00:17:17,190
And we have contacted the local authorities in

548
00:17:17,190 --> 00:17:20,069
where these kids live, these young adults, and

549
00:17:20,069 --> 00:17:21,849
we are going to hold them accountable.

550
00:17:21,849 --> 00:17:24,190
Yeah, we're going to string them up.

551
00:17:24,950 --> 00:17:25,970
String them up, those kids.

552
00:17:26,790 --> 00:17:27,670
Lynch mob.

553
00:17:27,770 --> 00:17:29,290
Just a lynch mob mentality.

554
00:17:29,650 --> 00:17:29,830
Exactly.

555
00:17:30,350 --> 00:17:30,470
Great.

556
00:17:30,850 --> 00:17:31,330
It's great.

557
00:17:31,550 --> 00:17:33,770
And I think that she should return her

558
00:17:33,770 --> 00:17:35,910
Dvorak School of Broadcasting certificate.

559
00:17:39,650 --> 00:17:41,690
I'll never, I'll never make mention of again.

560
00:17:41,830 --> 00:17:43,670
No one you could have mentored could become

561
00:17:43,670 --> 00:17:45,330
this unhinged on air ever.

562
00:17:46,130 --> 00:17:47,050
Just doesn't happen.

563
00:17:47,190 --> 00:17:48,130
I believe that's correct.

564
00:17:48,130 --> 00:17:50,630
She got mentored, as she says herself, by

565
00:17:50,630 --> 00:17:52,050
Walt Mossberg.

566
00:17:52,390 --> 00:17:52,510
Yeah.

567
00:17:52,730 --> 00:17:53,050
Yeah.

568
00:17:53,190 --> 00:17:54,150
We all know the truth.

569
00:17:54,290 --> 00:17:55,670
She did show up on the show, though.

570
00:17:55,710 --> 00:17:56,470
So there you go.

571
00:17:56,550 --> 00:17:56,730
Yeah.

572
00:17:56,790 --> 00:17:57,610
Yeah, she did.

573
00:17:57,890 --> 00:17:58,950
I gave her her break.

574
00:17:59,010 --> 00:18:00,290
You can condemn me for that.

575
00:18:00,810 --> 00:18:01,930
I'm not condemning you.

576
00:18:02,170 --> 00:18:03,010
I am grateful.

577
00:18:03,750 --> 00:18:04,230
Think about it.

578
00:18:04,310 --> 00:18:04,990
I mean, there it is.

579
00:18:04,990 --> 00:18:06,550
It's 15 minutes of the show.

580
00:18:06,550 --> 00:18:07,310
Yes, it's material.

581
00:18:07,630 --> 00:18:08,270
Yeah, material.

582
00:18:08,550 --> 00:18:09,230
It's great.

583
00:18:09,530 --> 00:18:11,290
You need to indoctrinate more of these people.

584
00:18:11,470 --> 00:18:11,670
It's good.

585
00:18:11,750 --> 00:18:12,210
Good work.

586
00:18:12,670 --> 00:18:13,110
Good work.

587
00:18:13,610 --> 00:18:13,950
All right.

588
00:18:15,230 --> 00:18:15,850
Doge clips.

589
00:18:15,970 --> 00:18:16,490
JCD, go.

590
00:18:19,950 --> 00:18:22,230
You and Mark Levin.

591
00:18:22,670 --> 00:18:23,330
Cut three.

592
00:18:24,210 --> 00:18:25,330
Clip 10.

593
00:18:26,330 --> 00:18:27,370
Tell you, Mr. Producer.

594
00:18:28,450 --> 00:18:29,210
Yeah, exactly.

595
00:18:29,470 --> 00:18:32,530
Well, let's go over the distraught clips.

596
00:18:32,770 --> 00:18:34,570
These are from NPR, and this is a

597
00:18:34,570 --> 00:18:39,970
series of how distraught and ruined lives are

598
00:18:39,970 --> 00:18:41,730
becoming because of...

599
00:18:41,730 --> 00:18:44,370
And listen carefully to these clips because they

600
00:18:44,370 --> 00:18:47,610
make no mention, NPR, and I have some

601
00:18:47,610 --> 00:18:50,350
complaints about NPR, as usual, later.

602
00:18:50,690 --> 00:18:51,270
Why not?

603
00:18:52,290 --> 00:18:55,030
They make no mention of the waste, fraud,

604
00:18:55,110 --> 00:18:55,710
and abuse.

605
00:18:55,850 --> 00:18:58,730
In fact, they claim there's none because everything's

606
00:18:58,730 --> 00:18:59,070
USA.

607
00:18:59,170 --> 00:18:59,650
It is great.

608
00:18:59,770 --> 00:19:00,030
Let's go.

609
00:19:00,690 --> 00:19:00,890
Go.

610
00:19:01,150 --> 00:19:04,730
Elon Musk continues to send shockwaves through the

611
00:19:04,730 --> 00:19:05,430
federal government.

612
00:19:05,870 --> 00:19:08,030
His cost cutting team, the Department of Government

613
00:19:08,030 --> 00:19:10,850
Efficiency, or DOGE, has been tearing through the

614
00:19:10,850 --> 00:19:12,430
government since Inauguration Day.

615
00:19:12,430 --> 00:19:15,610
But now DOGE has been hit with multiple

616
00:19:15,610 --> 00:19:18,010
lawsuits, and a member of the team even

617
00:19:18,010 --> 00:19:20,630
stepped down after a series of racist social

618
00:19:20,630 --> 00:19:22,030
media posts surfaced.

619
00:19:22,650 --> 00:19:25,010
What do we actually know about this newly

620
00:19:25,010 --> 00:19:27,530
created entity that has so much power?

621
00:19:27,690 --> 00:19:29,850
What are they doing, and who is working

622
00:19:29,850 --> 00:19:30,150
there?

623
00:19:30,410 --> 00:19:32,730
Well, for help understanding some of this, we're

624
00:19:32,730 --> 00:19:34,890
joined now by NPR's Shannon Bond, who has

625
00:19:34,890 --> 00:19:36,670
been following all things DOGE.

626
00:19:36,790 --> 00:19:37,190
Hi, Shannon.

627
00:19:37,310 --> 00:19:37,610
Hi, Shannon.

628
00:19:37,670 --> 00:19:38,110
Hi, Elsa.

629
00:19:38,330 --> 00:19:38,570
Hey, Elsa.

630
00:19:38,570 --> 00:19:40,650
So just lay out what we know so

631
00:19:40,650 --> 00:19:43,290
far about what DOGE is doing.

632
00:19:44,050 --> 00:19:46,310
Yeah, so our reporting shows this effort appears

633
00:19:46,310 --> 00:19:49,210
to be focusing on technology and personnel at

634
00:19:49,210 --> 00:19:50,050
federal agencies.

635
00:19:50,590 --> 00:19:53,070
So staffers connected to DOGE are gaining access

636
00:19:53,070 --> 00:19:56,670
to sensitive systems and information on government payments

637
00:19:56,670 --> 00:19:57,850
and about employees.

638
00:19:58,590 --> 00:20:00,310
And Elon Musk, who's leading the effort, has

639
00:20:00,310 --> 00:20:02,730
been cheering on their work on his Platform

640
00:20:02,730 --> 00:20:03,090
X.

641
00:20:03,430 --> 00:20:06,170
He's taken credit for efforts to dismantle the

642
00:20:06,170 --> 00:20:09,090
U.S. Agency for International Development, which has

643
00:20:09,090 --> 00:20:11,350
funded everything from relief efforts in Ukraine to

644
00:20:11,350 --> 00:20:13,330
secret schools for girls in Afghanistan.

645
00:20:13,970 --> 00:20:17,970
By the way, pay attention to people who

646
00:20:17,970 --> 00:20:21,010
say USAID versus USAID.

647
00:20:22,370 --> 00:20:24,590
Because that's one of those, that's kind of...

648
00:20:24,590 --> 00:20:25,510
Yeah, it's a little tricky.

649
00:20:25,890 --> 00:20:29,350
It's like Federal Reserve, you know, it's like...

650
00:20:29,350 --> 00:20:31,610
But if you listen to the end, play

651
00:20:31,610 --> 00:20:36,030
the end again, because she emphasizes, I don't

652
00:20:36,030 --> 00:20:37,970
even know if these are real programs or

653
00:20:37,970 --> 00:20:41,390
not, but there's no mention of any of

654
00:20:41,390 --> 00:20:45,330
the, you know, Guatemalan sex change operations or

655
00:20:45,330 --> 00:20:49,950
promoting the gay agenda in Uganda, which has

656
00:20:49,950 --> 00:20:52,250
a death penalty or any of the other

657
00:20:52,250 --> 00:20:54,030
kinds of screwball things these guys do.

658
00:20:54,110 --> 00:20:56,530
She just passes it off as some great

659
00:20:56,530 --> 00:20:58,410
operation that is the best.

660
00:20:58,630 --> 00:21:01,230
She's taken credit for efforts to dismantle the

661
00:21:01,230 --> 00:21:04,150
U.S. Agency for International Development, which has

662
00:21:04,150 --> 00:21:06,450
funded everything from relief efforts in Ukraine to

663
00:21:06,450 --> 00:21:08,430
secret schools for girls in Afghanistan.

664
00:21:11,170 --> 00:21:11,610
Fabulous.

665
00:21:11,890 --> 00:21:12,110
Yes.

666
00:21:12,830 --> 00:21:15,190
The secret schools for girls in Afghanistan.

667
00:21:15,270 --> 00:21:15,810
You need some.

668
00:21:15,850 --> 00:21:16,010
All right.

669
00:21:16,150 --> 00:21:16,450
You need some.

670
00:21:16,530 --> 00:21:17,010
You need some.

671
00:21:17,130 --> 00:21:17,270
Yeah.

672
00:21:17,950 --> 00:21:18,410
Point of order.

673
00:21:19,010 --> 00:21:20,690
Musk has also said that DOJ is shutting

674
00:21:20,690 --> 00:21:24,190
down what he calls, quote, illegal payments from

675
00:21:24,190 --> 00:21:26,230
the Department of Health and Human Services to

676
00:21:26,230 --> 00:21:27,330
non-profit groups.

677
00:21:27,950 --> 00:21:29,830
But look, even as he's talking about all

678
00:21:29,830 --> 00:21:30,950
this stuff, there are still a lot of

679
00:21:30,950 --> 00:21:33,110
questions about the scope of what DOJ is

680
00:21:33,110 --> 00:21:35,750
doing and whether they actually have the authority

681
00:21:35,750 --> 00:21:36,530
to do it.

682
00:21:36,950 --> 00:21:39,850
Deborah Perlstein is a constitutional scholar at Princeton

683
00:21:39,850 --> 00:21:40,590
University.

684
00:21:41,010 --> 00:21:43,070
One of the reasons we can't tell what's

685
00:21:43,070 --> 00:21:44,810
going on and what power they have is

686
00:21:44,810 --> 00:21:47,450
because they haven't really made what they're doing

687
00:21:47,450 --> 00:21:48,590
public at all.

688
00:21:48,990 --> 00:21:51,150
And that also includes who it is who's

689
00:21:51,150 --> 00:21:51,470
doing it.

690
00:21:51,930 --> 00:21:55,070
There's a laundry list of stuff they're doing.

691
00:21:55,450 --> 00:21:58,750
The reasons we can't tell what's going on

692
00:21:58,750 --> 00:22:00,770
and what power they have is because they

693
00:22:00,770 --> 00:22:03,530
haven't really made what they're doing public at

694
00:22:03,530 --> 00:22:03,830
all.

695
00:22:04,350 --> 00:22:06,350
And that also includes who it is who's

696
00:22:06,350 --> 00:22:07,130
doing this work.

697
00:22:07,350 --> 00:22:07,750
Exactly.

698
00:22:07,970 --> 00:22:10,770
So what do we know about the people

699
00:22:10,770 --> 00:22:11,770
working for DOJ?

700
00:22:11,870 --> 00:22:12,530
Like, who are they?

701
00:22:12,970 --> 00:22:13,250
Right.

702
00:22:13,310 --> 00:22:14,730
So there is a DOJ team in the

703
00:22:14,730 --> 00:22:16,070
White House that Musk is leading.

704
00:22:16,310 --> 00:22:17,990
But a lot of this stuff is actually

705
00:22:17,990 --> 00:22:19,170
happening in the agencies.

706
00:22:19,430 --> 00:22:21,990
There are staffers connected to DOJ fanning out

707
00:22:21,990 --> 00:22:23,290
across the federal government.

708
00:22:23,770 --> 00:22:25,210
So, for example, we have a number of

709
00:22:25,210 --> 00:22:27,450
Musk-connected figures who've been named to senior

710
00:22:27,450 --> 00:22:28,030
roles.

711
00:22:28,530 --> 00:22:29,810
That includes Tom Krause.

712
00:22:29,810 --> 00:22:32,390
He's a tech CEO who just today was

713
00:22:32,390 --> 00:22:34,510
put in charge of the Treasury Department system

714
00:22:34,510 --> 00:22:37,430
that processes trillions of dollars in payments every

715
00:22:37,430 --> 00:22:37,730
year.

716
00:22:38,330 --> 00:22:40,470
Now, what's notable here, Elsa, is that this

717
00:22:40,470 --> 00:22:43,370
week in a legal challenge around this arrangement,

718
00:22:43,810 --> 00:22:46,770
the government said that Krause has read-only

719
00:22:46,770 --> 00:22:48,370
access to this payment system.

720
00:22:48,490 --> 00:22:50,850
But then we have Musk posting publicly about

721
00:22:50,850 --> 00:22:51,850
shutting off payments.

722
00:22:51,870 --> 00:22:54,510
And so now his ally is running that

723
00:22:54,510 --> 00:22:54,890
system.

724
00:22:55,450 --> 00:22:57,030
There are other folks who've worked at Musk

725
00:22:57,030 --> 00:22:59,810
companies, including Tesla and X.A.I., who

726
00:22:59,810 --> 00:23:01,430
are in senior positions at the Office of

727
00:23:01,430 --> 00:23:03,650
Personnel Management and the General Services Administration.

728
00:23:04,330 --> 00:23:05,850
And, of course, there's also this group of

729
00:23:05,850 --> 00:23:08,510
young male software engineers, right, that have gotten

730
00:23:08,510 --> 00:23:09,630
a lot of attention.

731
00:23:09,850 --> 00:23:12,250
Oh, yeah, including the staffer who resigned just

732
00:23:12,250 --> 00:23:13,070
yesterday, right?

733
00:23:13,130 --> 00:23:13,970
Like, what was his story?

734
00:23:14,450 --> 00:23:16,270
OK, I just need to say something, just

735
00:23:16,270 --> 00:23:17,390
interject a little bit here.

736
00:23:18,510 --> 00:23:22,850
The ageism is really, it's almost, I mean,

737
00:23:22,950 --> 00:23:24,330
in a way I understand it, but it's

738
00:23:24,330 --> 00:23:27,130
kind of baffling because whenever it comes to

739
00:23:27,130 --> 00:23:31,210
the greatest technology in your iPhone, everybody's always

740
00:23:31,210 --> 00:23:33,590
happy about, oh, these are the smartest kids

741
00:23:33,590 --> 00:23:34,250
in the world.

742
00:23:34,630 --> 00:23:35,510
They're young.

743
00:23:35,870 --> 00:23:37,610
You know, they're making my camera better.

744
00:23:37,830 --> 00:23:39,350
You know, they're making everything faster.

745
00:23:39,430 --> 00:23:40,290
It's fantastic.

746
00:23:41,750 --> 00:23:43,250
What they used to call them?

747
00:23:43,830 --> 00:23:45,730
Ninjas, code ninjas.

748
00:23:46,130 --> 00:23:46,990
They're the best.

749
00:23:47,070 --> 00:23:47,670
They're the greatest.

750
00:23:47,770 --> 00:23:50,290
Now it's like, what do these kids know

751
00:23:50,290 --> 00:23:52,250
about the Treasury system?

752
00:23:52,250 --> 00:23:54,250
Oh, my, oh, my, oh, my.

753
00:23:54,530 --> 00:23:55,830
You can't let, you need.

754
00:23:56,110 --> 00:23:57,570
And by the way, they fired all the

755
00:23:57,570 --> 00:23:58,550
COBOL guys.

756
00:23:59,010 --> 00:24:00,650
If you can still get a COBOL guy.

757
00:24:00,970 --> 00:24:03,930
This is, Dasha interjected, I'll bring this up

758
00:24:03,930 --> 00:24:05,790
because I was talking to JC about this.

759
00:24:05,850 --> 00:24:07,070
It was in that industry.

760
00:24:08,050 --> 00:24:10,130
And he says that one of the things

761
00:24:10,130 --> 00:24:12,950
that happened with the USAID and it looks

762
00:24:12,950 --> 00:24:15,790
like the Treasury too, and he predicted something,

763
00:24:15,910 --> 00:24:18,450
which I'll mention, which is that exactly what

764
00:24:18,450 --> 00:24:20,730
you said, I'm glad you said it, which

765
00:24:20,730 --> 00:24:24,010
is that the COBOL, the Graybeards, as they're

766
00:24:24,010 --> 00:24:26,310
called, all retired.

767
00:24:26,550 --> 00:24:27,790
And they're the ones who put all these

768
00:24:27,790 --> 00:24:29,450
systems together that work.

769
00:24:29,690 --> 00:24:31,990
Their systems do work, but they're old.

770
00:24:32,330 --> 00:24:32,950
It just works.

771
00:24:33,850 --> 00:24:34,550
They're old.

772
00:24:34,910 --> 00:24:38,350
And according to, you know, the gossip mill

773
00:24:38,350 --> 00:24:42,850
is when the Graybeards quit, they told all

774
00:24:42,850 --> 00:24:44,470
the kids that are running things because, you

775
00:24:44,470 --> 00:24:46,090
know, the kids, they know JavaScript.

776
00:24:46,090 --> 00:24:47,130
It can do C++.

777
00:24:48,010 --> 00:24:48,410
Rust.

778
00:24:49,390 --> 00:24:50,150
I need rust.

779
00:24:50,730 --> 00:24:55,070
They said to the kids, don't touch anything.

780
00:24:56,730 --> 00:24:59,490
And so these old COBOL systems are in

781
00:24:59,490 --> 00:25:00,030
place.

782
00:25:00,630 --> 00:25:03,110
And so, but they're going to have to

783
00:25:03,110 --> 00:25:04,230
upgrade at some point.

784
00:25:04,410 --> 00:25:06,890
And he says that, and that's the reason

785
00:25:06,890 --> 00:25:09,510
that we've heard stories about, oh, they won't

786
00:25:09,510 --> 00:25:10,010
let him in.

787
00:25:10,070 --> 00:25:11,070
They won't let him look at anything.

788
00:25:11,150 --> 00:25:12,130
They won't let him do this or they

789
00:25:12,130 --> 00:25:14,050
won't let him do that because they don't

790
00:25:14,050 --> 00:25:16,190
know anything that's going on, literally.

791
00:25:16,670 --> 00:25:18,750
So they can't help the Doge guys.

792
00:25:19,390 --> 00:25:22,070
Now, he says that they're going to try

793
00:25:22,070 --> 00:25:24,210
to upgrade these systems and they're all going

794
00:25:24,210 --> 00:25:25,910
to get, because it's going to be new

795
00:25:25,910 --> 00:25:28,550
code, new everything is all going to get

796
00:25:28,550 --> 00:25:29,010
borked.

797
00:25:29,050 --> 00:25:29,950
And he's predicted.

798
00:25:30,730 --> 00:25:32,790
I'm not going to argue that.

799
00:25:33,810 --> 00:25:34,550
Of course not.

800
00:25:34,650 --> 00:25:35,990
Because you don't, you, you're.

801
00:25:36,170 --> 00:25:36,850
Yeah, I know.

802
00:25:37,530 --> 00:25:38,050
I, you know.

803
00:25:38,270 --> 00:25:40,510
I used to work for IBM was the

804
00:25:40,510 --> 00:25:43,050
AS400 division was my client at Think New

805
00:25:43,050 --> 00:25:43,510
Ideas.

806
00:25:43,510 --> 00:25:45,130
I know, I know.

807
00:25:45,250 --> 00:25:47,130
And they're like, we can't put a web

808
00:25:47,130 --> 00:25:48,150
server on our boxes.

809
00:25:48,330 --> 00:25:49,970
We can't have a website unless it runs

810
00:25:49,970 --> 00:25:50,970
on AS400.

811
00:25:52,710 --> 00:25:54,170
Okay, good luck.

812
00:25:55,050 --> 00:25:59,550
So they have, he believes the following is

813
00:25:59,550 --> 00:26:01,090
going to, this is a scenario that's a

814
00:26:01,090 --> 00:26:02,990
predictive scenario that I liked.

815
00:26:03,510 --> 00:26:06,630
They're going to try to fix systems, including

816
00:26:06,630 --> 00:26:10,190
the IRS filing system, which apparently stopped working.

817
00:26:10,910 --> 00:26:14,210
And since it's an old COBOL system, they,

818
00:26:14,450 --> 00:26:17,210
you know, basically they can't, they have to,

819
00:26:17,550 --> 00:26:21,330
they just, there's, he pointed out that AI

820
00:26:21,330 --> 00:26:23,210
coding, which is all these new kids are

821
00:26:23,210 --> 00:26:23,410
doing.

822
00:26:23,530 --> 00:26:26,410
They use AI to do coding and doesn't

823
00:26:26,410 --> 00:26:29,270
code COBOL because there's not enough material to

824
00:26:29,270 --> 00:26:31,310
feed the language model.

825
00:26:31,550 --> 00:26:32,270
To slurp in, right.

826
00:26:32,970 --> 00:26:35,170
So there's not, so that, so AI can't

827
00:26:35,170 --> 00:26:35,990
do COBOL.

828
00:26:36,670 --> 00:26:38,890
And so they're going to have to abandon

829
00:26:38,890 --> 00:26:41,030
COBOL and go to these new systems.

830
00:26:41,370 --> 00:26:43,570
He predicts it's going to not work right

831
00:26:43,570 --> 00:26:43,930
away.

832
00:26:44,430 --> 00:26:46,830
There's not, there's going to be a, such

833
00:26:46,830 --> 00:26:48,210
a big screw up at the IRS.

834
00:26:48,370 --> 00:26:49,570
It's going to go as follows.

835
00:26:50,610 --> 00:26:52,210
You don't have to file.

836
00:26:54,450 --> 00:26:55,150
That's all right.

837
00:26:55,170 --> 00:26:57,310
Because President Trump's going to take away income

838
00:26:57,310 --> 00:26:57,950
tax anyway.

839
00:26:58,130 --> 00:26:58,670
It's all good.

840
00:26:58,830 --> 00:26:59,330
It'll be fine.

841
00:26:59,330 --> 00:27:00,630
You know, this may be part of that

842
00:27:00,630 --> 00:27:00,930
scheme.

843
00:27:02,410 --> 00:27:04,090
The way it goes is like this.

844
00:27:04,110 --> 00:27:05,730
You don't have to file right away.

845
00:27:05,730 --> 00:27:07,950
You can file later the April 15th.

846
00:27:08,050 --> 00:27:09,510
They're going to give him some slack on

847
00:27:09,510 --> 00:27:09,730
this.

848
00:27:10,470 --> 00:27:13,370
But what it really means is you're not

849
00:27:13,370 --> 00:27:14,770
going to get your refunds.

850
00:27:14,830 --> 00:27:15,510
Yeah, there's that.

851
00:27:15,710 --> 00:27:15,970
Yep.

852
00:27:16,130 --> 00:27:16,610
There's that.

853
00:27:16,710 --> 00:27:18,370
And so they're going to be, the government's

854
00:27:18,370 --> 00:27:20,250
going to be sitting on these refunds.

855
00:27:20,310 --> 00:27:22,090
Now that's for God knows how long.

856
00:27:22,190 --> 00:27:23,030
That's the rumor mill.

857
00:27:23,410 --> 00:27:24,010
JC's hearing.

858
00:27:24,130 --> 00:27:24,350
Yeah.

859
00:27:24,370 --> 00:27:25,650
The rumor mill is you're not going to

860
00:27:25,650 --> 00:27:27,410
get your refunds this year on time.

861
00:27:27,530 --> 00:27:29,630
Which by the way, is not good for

862
00:27:29,630 --> 00:27:30,250
the show.

863
00:27:31,970 --> 00:27:33,670
Trump, you're hurting the show, man.

864
00:27:33,790 --> 00:27:34,850
Doge, wait.

865
00:27:35,430 --> 00:27:38,070
You think they're already changing the code now?

866
00:27:38,790 --> 00:27:40,290
I don't know what they're up to.

867
00:27:40,390 --> 00:27:41,530
I'd have to talk to him some more

868
00:27:41,530 --> 00:27:41,930
about it.

869
00:27:42,270 --> 00:27:43,470
That doesn't sound right.

870
00:27:43,570 --> 00:27:45,910
We didn't have dinner this last Friday because

871
00:27:45,910 --> 00:27:47,070
he's sick.

872
00:27:47,610 --> 00:27:49,030
Well, you know, he got that whatever that

873
00:27:49,030 --> 00:27:49,630
couf is.

874
00:27:50,770 --> 00:27:52,730
And so I'll find out more later.

875
00:27:53,090 --> 00:27:55,070
It's known as respiratory flu these days.

876
00:27:55,190 --> 00:27:55,650
It's different.

877
00:27:55,870 --> 00:27:56,930
Oh, is that what it is?

878
00:27:56,950 --> 00:27:57,650
That's what it is, yeah.

879
00:27:57,830 --> 00:27:58,310
Respiratory flu.

880
00:27:58,310 --> 00:27:59,990
So I'll find out later.

881
00:28:00,610 --> 00:28:03,930
But this is not, this is hilarious.

882
00:28:03,930 --> 00:28:07,930
This is a disaster in every way.

883
00:28:08,650 --> 00:28:09,250
All right.

884
00:28:09,410 --> 00:28:10,330
Number three.

885
00:28:10,650 --> 00:28:13,070
Back to NPR.

886
00:28:13,470 --> 00:28:14,410
Well, his name is Marco Ales.

887
00:28:14,630 --> 00:28:17,410
He's a 25-year-old Rutgers University graduate

888
00:28:17,410 --> 00:28:20,370
who previously worked at SpaceX and at X.

889
00:28:20,590 --> 00:28:23,010
He was a temporary appointee at Treasury who

890
00:28:23,010 --> 00:28:25,590
was granted access to this payment system alongside

891
00:28:25,590 --> 00:28:26,330
Krauss.

892
00:28:26,810 --> 00:28:29,110
Now, on Thursday, the Wall Street Journal identified

893
00:28:29,110 --> 00:28:31,470
racist posts from a social media account linked

894
00:28:31,470 --> 00:28:31,850
to him.

895
00:28:31,850 --> 00:28:34,150
Those posts have been deleted, but NPR did

896
00:28:34,150 --> 00:28:35,450
independently confirm them.

897
00:28:35,850 --> 00:28:37,790
And Ales has now resigned, although Musk and

898
00:28:37,790 --> 00:28:39,930
Vice President JD Vance are saying he should

899
00:28:39,930 --> 00:28:40,970
get his job back.

900
00:28:41,410 --> 00:28:43,270
But all this raises questions about just how

901
00:28:43,270 --> 00:28:45,530
thoroughly vetted some of these staffers are.

902
00:28:45,950 --> 00:28:48,270
And then there are other relatively junior engineers'

903
00:28:48,470 --> 00:28:50,490
names that are popping up just at multiple

904
00:28:50,490 --> 00:28:53,430
agencies, creating a lot of confusion for workers

905
00:28:53,430 --> 00:28:54,410
and, frankly, alarm.

906
00:28:55,570 --> 00:28:58,070
Well, I understand that legal challenges to Doge

907
00:28:58,070 --> 00:28:59,810
are coming really quickly now.

908
00:28:59,810 --> 00:29:02,650
How might that affect the overall work of

909
00:29:02,650 --> 00:29:03,410
this team, you think?

910
00:29:04,010 --> 00:29:04,170
Yeah.

911
00:29:04,250 --> 00:29:06,210
Also, I mean, the first lawsuit about Doge

912
00:29:06,210 --> 00:29:08,570
was filed just minutes after President Trump was

913
00:29:08,570 --> 00:29:09,150
sworn in.

914
00:29:09,570 --> 00:29:11,830
This week, we've had unions representing government workers

915
00:29:11,830 --> 00:29:15,850
suing Treasury over concerns about the Doge staffers

916
00:29:15,850 --> 00:29:17,950
accessing that payment system I talk about.

917
00:29:18,430 --> 00:29:21,330
A judge temporarily limited access to people inside

918
00:29:21,330 --> 00:29:23,090
Treasury, so not Musk and his team at

919
00:29:23,090 --> 00:29:23,690
the White House.

920
00:29:24,130 --> 00:29:26,330
On Friday, the University of California student government

921
00:29:26,330 --> 00:29:28,450
sued to stop Doge from gaining access to

922
00:29:28,450 --> 00:29:31,330
data on student loan borrowers.

923
00:29:31,610 --> 00:29:34,290
These lawsuits could constrain the scope of Doge's

924
00:29:34,290 --> 00:29:35,970
work, but, you know, they move slowly in

925
00:29:35,970 --> 00:29:36,590
the legal system.

926
00:29:36,770 --> 00:29:39,810
Meanwhile, government workers we're speaking to say Doge

927
00:29:39,810 --> 00:29:42,350
is very quickly moving ahead with this work.

928
00:29:42,710 --> 00:29:42,930
All right.

929
00:29:42,930 --> 00:29:44,570
Let's just parse some things out here.

930
00:29:44,630 --> 00:29:46,490
First of all, this racist comment.

931
00:29:47,090 --> 00:29:49,010
Now, if I understand correctly, the guy who

932
00:29:49,010 --> 00:29:52,770
made the racist comment is Akash Boba, and

933
00:29:52,770 --> 00:29:53,590
he's Indian.

934
00:29:54,830 --> 00:29:57,850
And what he posted somewhere in his past,

935
00:29:57,990 --> 00:30:00,210
probably when he was 15, was...

936
00:30:00,210 --> 00:30:01,990
Yes, this is classic.

937
00:30:02,170 --> 00:30:04,470
Yeah, was, I'm not going to marry outside

938
00:30:04,470 --> 00:30:05,210
of my race.

939
00:30:05,350 --> 00:30:07,550
By the way, that's Indians.

940
00:30:09,170 --> 00:30:09,730
Yep.

941
00:30:09,990 --> 00:30:10,410
That's...

942
00:30:10,410 --> 00:30:10,650
And, you know...

943
00:30:10,650 --> 00:30:11,870
It's also Jews.

944
00:30:12,250 --> 00:30:12,650
Yes.

945
00:30:12,750 --> 00:30:13,970
It's also Catholics.

946
00:30:14,270 --> 00:30:14,590
Yes.

947
00:30:14,890 --> 00:30:17,310
It's also lots of people that have this

948
00:30:17,310 --> 00:30:18,890
feeling, especially old timers.

949
00:30:19,170 --> 00:30:19,290
Mo.

950
00:30:19,530 --> 00:30:20,090
Mo.

951
00:30:20,350 --> 00:30:20,910
Mo.

952
00:30:21,050 --> 00:30:21,370
Mo.

953
00:30:21,590 --> 00:30:22,470
Mo facts.

954
00:30:22,710 --> 00:30:22,950
Mo facts.

955
00:30:22,950 --> 00:30:25,990
And, you know, so, but that is now...

956
00:30:25,990 --> 00:30:27,990
Oh, he got fired for racist comments.

957
00:30:28,170 --> 00:30:30,230
And you notice they don't really expound on

958
00:30:30,230 --> 00:30:32,690
it, or expand on what he actually tweeted

959
00:30:32,690 --> 00:30:34,050
and when he tweeted it.

960
00:30:34,730 --> 00:30:38,470
So, and there's all kinds of interesting takedowns.

961
00:30:39,070 --> 00:30:41,770
I love the one from Krebs on security.

962
00:30:42,170 --> 00:30:43,270
Oh, Krebs on security.

963
00:30:43,430 --> 00:30:44,850
Oh, they really dug in deep.

964
00:30:44,930 --> 00:30:45,450
These guys.

965
00:30:45,810 --> 00:30:46,330
Oh, yeah.

966
00:30:46,490 --> 00:30:49,370
He founded Tesla dot sexy LLC.

967
00:30:49,750 --> 00:30:50,570
Oh, no.

968
00:30:50,830 --> 00:30:51,990
Horrible, horrible, horrible.

969
00:30:51,990 --> 00:30:53,670
It's all so bad.

970
00:30:54,290 --> 00:30:57,130
You know, I'm kind of holding back because

971
00:30:57,130 --> 00:30:59,190
it does have clips of Kara Swisher.

972
00:30:59,450 --> 00:31:03,990
But Erin Burnett, you know, the true breaking

973
00:31:03,990 --> 00:31:05,330
news came from Wired.

974
00:31:05,950 --> 00:31:07,110
And I think it's...

975
00:31:07,110 --> 00:31:08,350
Is it Katie Drummond?

976
00:31:08,530 --> 00:31:09,030
Is she...

977
00:31:09,030 --> 00:31:09,570
Let me see.

978
00:31:09,670 --> 00:31:10,650
Is she the Wired lady?

979
00:31:11,210 --> 00:31:12,810
I think she's the Wired lady.

980
00:31:13,550 --> 00:31:13,950
Yeah.

981
00:31:14,250 --> 00:31:18,110
So she is the executive vice president, editor

982
00:31:18,110 --> 00:31:19,670
-in-chief of all things Wired.

983
00:31:19,670 --> 00:31:22,210
Wired is just doing such excellent reporting.

984
00:31:22,550 --> 00:31:23,690
So let's get a little background.

985
00:31:24,310 --> 00:31:26,310
Breaking news, a 25-year-old aide at

986
00:31:26,310 --> 00:31:29,510
Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency resigning tonight

987
00:31:29,510 --> 00:31:32,050
over links to social media posts advocating racism

988
00:31:32,050 --> 00:31:32,690
and eugenics.

989
00:31:32,910 --> 00:31:34,410
This is according to the Wall Street Journal.

990
00:31:36,850 --> 00:31:39,910
Again, advocating racism and eugenics, John.

991
00:31:40,570 --> 00:31:41,050
Eugenics.

992
00:31:41,170 --> 00:31:42,430
Oh, so in other words, I want to

993
00:31:42,430 --> 00:31:43,950
marry within my own caste.

994
00:31:43,990 --> 00:31:46,810
Yes, that is a form of eugenics.

995
00:31:46,830 --> 00:31:47,870
That's eugenics.

996
00:31:48,050 --> 00:31:48,530
Exactly.

997
00:31:48,530 --> 00:31:50,550
I mean, it boggles the mind.

998
00:31:50,650 --> 00:31:51,570
But it's Erin Burnett.

999
00:31:51,670 --> 00:31:51,990
What do you expect?

1000
00:31:52,290 --> 00:31:53,670
Advocating racism and eugenics.

1001
00:31:54,210 --> 00:31:55,350
This is according to the Wall Street Journal.

1002
00:31:55,790 --> 00:31:56,770
Hold on a second.

1003
00:31:57,310 --> 00:31:59,850
Again, they have this material.

1004
00:32:00,750 --> 00:32:02,350
They don't have to read it.

1005
00:32:02,550 --> 00:32:03,970
They can put it on the screen.

1006
00:32:04,290 --> 00:32:05,290
They never do this.

1007
00:32:05,310 --> 00:32:06,290
Why would we do that?

1008
00:32:06,770 --> 00:32:07,670
No, that's not...

1009
00:32:07,670 --> 00:32:10,510
No, you might show how misleading you are.

1010
00:32:10,690 --> 00:32:11,850
People might get a clue.

1011
00:32:11,950 --> 00:32:13,270
According to the Wall Street Journal, who says

1012
00:32:13,270 --> 00:32:15,090
that the aide resigned after being confronted with

1013
00:32:15,090 --> 00:32:15,570
the posts.

1014
00:32:15,570 --> 00:32:18,330
Now, that former, now former, Doge aide was

1015
00:32:18,330 --> 00:32:19,550
one of the people at the center of

1016
00:32:19,550 --> 00:32:23,170
a legal dispute over accessing that sensitive, crucial

1017
00:32:23,170 --> 00:32:24,990
and massive Treasury Department payment system.

1018
00:32:25,270 --> 00:32:25,450
Massive.

1019
00:32:25,710 --> 00:32:26,950
And it comes as one of our next

1020
00:32:26,950 --> 00:32:28,890
guests has uncovered even more details about another

1021
00:32:28,890 --> 00:32:30,050
of Musk's young deputies.

1022
00:32:30,510 --> 00:32:32,970
Out front now, Kara Swisher, tech journalist, podcast

1023
00:32:32,970 --> 00:32:35,730
host, who has covered Elon Musk extensively for

1024
00:32:35,730 --> 00:32:37,590
years in the entire tech world.

1025
00:32:38,390 --> 00:32:40,850
And Katie Drummond, global editorial director at Wired,

1026
00:32:40,930 --> 00:32:43,030
which has been breaking story after story on

1027
00:32:43,030 --> 00:32:44,910
these recent high school and college graduates that

1028
00:32:44,910 --> 00:32:46,790
Musk has brought to Washington.

1029
00:32:47,370 --> 00:32:50,310
OK, so let's listen to Katie Drummond.

1030
00:32:50,350 --> 00:32:53,070
We'll skip the Swisher stuff because it's just

1031
00:32:53,070 --> 00:32:55,530
her hating on everybody, like her book, like

1032
00:32:55,530 --> 00:32:56,290
everything she does.

1033
00:32:56,550 --> 00:32:57,490
So, Katie, let's talk about one of these

1034
00:32:57,490 --> 00:32:58,430
people specifically now.

1035
00:32:58,510 --> 00:33:00,230
Your latest story is a 19...

1036
00:33:00,230 --> 00:33:01,950
It focuses on a 19-year-old software

1037
00:33:01,950 --> 00:33:03,670
engineer working at Doge.

1038
00:33:03,910 --> 00:33:05,610
19, working at Doge.

1039
00:33:05,690 --> 00:33:06,530
19, 19.

1040
00:33:06,770 --> 00:33:07,390
He's 19.

1041
00:33:07,730 --> 00:33:08,850
Ladies and gentlemen, he's 19.

1042
00:33:08,850 --> 00:33:11,510
19-year-olds are sent to deserts to

1043
00:33:11,510 --> 00:33:12,870
go fight on your behalf.

1044
00:33:13,310 --> 00:33:15,070
With a gun.

1045
00:33:15,330 --> 00:33:15,770
With a gun.

1046
00:33:16,110 --> 00:33:18,090
They're catching hot lead in the desert.

1047
00:33:18,270 --> 00:33:19,690
But now, oh, a 19-year-old.

1048
00:33:20,190 --> 00:33:22,390
Someone who's passed associations that you have looked

1049
00:33:22,390 --> 00:33:25,510
into, such that they are at 19, would

1050
00:33:25,510 --> 00:33:27,370
call into question passing a background check.

1051
00:33:27,690 --> 00:33:29,710
Of course, that hasn't happened in these cases,

1052
00:33:29,850 --> 00:33:32,510
but would normally happen in a case like

1053
00:33:32,510 --> 00:33:33,130
this.

1054
00:33:33,190 --> 00:33:34,050
One would hope, yes.

1055
00:33:34,150 --> 00:33:35,710
So this is a 19-year-old high

1056
00:33:35,710 --> 00:33:36,230
school graduate.

1057
00:33:36,390 --> 00:33:37,150
One would hope.

1058
00:33:37,750 --> 00:33:41,970
Who has used the unfortunate nickname Big Balls

1059
00:33:41,970 --> 00:33:42,370
online.

1060
00:33:42,590 --> 00:33:43,750
So that would be one way that we

1061
00:33:43,750 --> 00:33:44,390
could refer to him.

1062
00:33:44,550 --> 00:33:45,370
Why unfortunate?

1063
00:33:46,030 --> 00:33:46,990
Why is it unfortunate?

1064
00:33:47,830 --> 00:33:49,030
It's a great nickname.

1065
00:33:49,250 --> 00:33:50,390
That's actually interesting.

1066
00:33:50,550 --> 00:33:51,490
That's a good catch.

1067
00:33:51,810 --> 00:33:52,890
Why is it unfortunate?

1068
00:33:52,990 --> 00:33:55,730
Because you are forced to say Big Balls

1069
00:33:55,730 --> 00:33:56,290
on CNN.

1070
00:33:56,610 --> 00:33:58,470
Which you apparently enjoy doing.

1071
00:33:59,290 --> 00:34:03,490
Who has used the unfortunate nickname Big Balls

1072
00:34:03,490 --> 00:34:03,910
online.

1073
00:34:04,130 --> 00:34:05,270
So that would be one way that we

1074
00:34:05,270 --> 00:34:05,890
could refer to him.

1075
00:34:05,890 --> 00:34:08,370
Refer to him by his name, then, maybe.

1076
00:34:08,469 --> 00:34:09,710
You could refer to him in many different

1077
00:34:09,710 --> 00:34:09,949
ways.

1078
00:34:10,030 --> 00:34:10,210
No.

1079
00:34:10,510 --> 00:34:12,090
Because you like saying Big Balls.

1080
00:34:12,090 --> 00:34:12,550
You like it.

1081
00:34:12,610 --> 00:34:12,909
Say it.

1082
00:34:12,949 --> 00:34:13,630
Say Big Balls.

1083
00:34:13,710 --> 00:34:13,949
Go to him.

1084
00:34:14,350 --> 00:34:17,370
He is now working at Musk's behest inside

1085
00:34:17,370 --> 00:34:17,989
Doge.

1086
00:34:18,429 --> 00:34:20,449
And we looked into his background.

1087
00:34:20,889 --> 00:34:24,270
And so we found several notable things, Aaron.

1088
00:34:24,409 --> 00:34:26,889
One of which is that this individual has

1089
00:34:26,889 --> 00:34:30,969
founded multiple companies, including one with another unfortunate

1090
00:34:30,969 --> 00:34:31,429
name.

1091
00:34:31,650 --> 00:34:32,650
Unfortunate name?

1092
00:34:32,949 --> 00:34:36,250
Tesla.sexyllc. Oh, no.

1093
00:34:36,770 --> 00:34:37,790
Why is that unfortunate?

1094
00:34:38,710 --> 00:34:41,690
Because she has to mention Tesla, I guess.

1095
00:34:41,750 --> 00:34:42,710
And she doesn't want to.

1096
00:34:42,810 --> 00:34:43,290
I don't know.

1097
00:34:43,750 --> 00:34:44,750
It's a mystery.

1098
00:34:45,170 --> 00:34:46,710
Which he established in 2021.

1099
00:34:46,929 --> 00:34:48,190
He would have been around 16 years old.

1100
00:34:48,710 --> 00:34:51,230
Now, this LLC controls dozens of web domains.

1101
00:34:51,429 --> 00:34:52,110
Hold on a second.

1102
00:34:52,250 --> 00:34:53,409
So this is what I like.

1103
00:34:53,730 --> 00:34:57,870
Now she goes from a name, Tesla.sexyllc,

1104
00:34:58,290 --> 00:35:02,010
a screen name, to acting as if there's

1105
00:35:02,010 --> 00:35:07,290
an actual LLC, like a limited liability corporation,

1106
00:35:08,370 --> 00:35:10,550
that has registered domain names.

1107
00:35:12,410 --> 00:35:14,330
I mean, as far as I can tell,

1108
00:35:14,430 --> 00:35:18,230
there is no Tesla.sexyllc. But now she

1109
00:35:18,230 --> 00:35:20,450
makes it sound like he's got a corporation.

1110
00:35:20,710 --> 00:35:21,750
He established in 2021.

1111
00:35:21,970 --> 00:35:23,250
He would have been around 16 years old.

1112
00:35:23,650 --> 00:35:26,290
Now, this LLC controls dozens of web domains,

1113
00:35:26,290 --> 00:35:29,270
a handful of which are registered to Russia.

1114
00:35:29,530 --> 00:35:30,670
Now, that— Okay, stop.

1115
00:35:31,530 --> 00:35:33,150
They're not registered to Russia.

1116
00:35:33,230 --> 00:35:36,050
He registered some .ru domain names.

1117
00:35:36,910 --> 00:35:38,690
That's not registered to Russia.

1118
00:35:40,070 --> 00:35:42,070
This is the lady who has done this

1119
00:35:42,070 --> 00:35:43,770
excellent technology reporting.

1120
00:35:43,890 --> 00:35:45,270
Just fabulous work.

1121
00:35:45,410 --> 00:35:46,350
Oh, frau gutkeitig.

1122
00:35:46,390 --> 00:35:49,090
It controls dozens of web domains, a handful

1123
00:35:49,090 --> 00:35:51,130
of which are registered to Russia.

1124
00:35:51,310 --> 00:35:52,750
Now, that in and of itself is not

1125
00:35:52,750 --> 00:35:54,950
necessarily— No, correct.

1126
00:35:55,590 --> 00:35:56,110
It's bull.

1127
00:35:56,110 --> 00:35:56,770
—illegal.

1128
00:35:57,030 --> 00:35:58,890
But everyone else that we spoke to said

1129
00:35:58,890 --> 00:36:00,930
that that is exactly the kind of thing,

1130
00:36:01,030 --> 00:36:03,090
those kinds of foreign connections— Oh, my God.

1131
00:36:03,310 --> 00:36:04,030
Foreign connection.

1132
00:36:04,290 --> 00:36:06,810
I can register a .ru domain.

1133
00:36:07,190 --> 00:36:08,730
Am I then a Russian asset?

1134
00:36:09,030 --> 00:36:11,030
Do I have unfortunate foreign connections?

1135
00:36:11,030 --> 00:36:11,410
Yes, yes, you are.

1136
00:36:11,730 --> 00:36:13,690
—that would raise red flags on a background

1137
00:36:13,690 --> 00:36:14,030
check.

1138
00:36:14,390 --> 00:36:16,230
Now, he also worked at a network— No,

1139
00:36:16,370 --> 00:36:17,010
it wouldn't.

1140
00:36:17,230 --> 00:36:18,890
Red flag, red flag.

1141
00:36:19,110 --> 00:36:21,050
You registered a domain name.

1142
00:36:21,130 --> 00:36:21,570
Oh, no.

1143
00:36:21,810 --> 00:36:24,270
I have bigmike2024.com.

1144
00:36:24,310 --> 00:36:25,450
I think I should go to jail.

1145
00:36:25,450 --> 00:36:28,030
—that would raise red flags on a background

1146
00:36:28,030 --> 00:36:28,350
check.

1147
00:36:28,690 --> 00:36:31,330
Now, he also worked at a network monitoring

1148
00:36:31,330 --> 00:36:34,310
firm that is known for hiring reformed black

1149
00:36:34,310 --> 00:36:36,570
hat hackers, essentially criminals.

1150
00:36:38,590 --> 00:36:41,990
And lastly— Go ahead.

1151
00:36:42,210 --> 00:36:42,650
Go ahead.

1152
00:36:42,770 --> 00:36:43,890
That's not true.

1153
00:36:44,130 --> 00:36:45,470
Essentially criminals.

1154
00:36:47,190 --> 00:36:50,970
Unless they committed a crime and were found

1155
00:36:50,970 --> 00:36:52,570
guilty, they're not criminals.

1156
00:36:52,870 --> 00:36:53,690
You, John C.

1157
00:36:53,730 --> 00:36:55,190
Dvorak, you're a podcaster.

1158
00:36:55,190 --> 00:36:56,650
You are essentially a criminal.

1159
00:36:57,870 --> 00:36:59,490
That's what you— Yeah, I'd like to see

1160
00:36:59,490 --> 00:37:01,430
them say that about me and find them—

1161
00:37:01,430 --> 00:37:03,270
I got libel lawyers.

1162
00:37:03,370 --> 00:37:04,350
I know how to do this.

1163
00:37:04,510 --> 00:37:04,690
Yeah.

1164
00:37:04,810 --> 00:37:05,830
That's bullcrap.

1165
00:37:06,150 --> 00:37:08,910
—firm that is known for hiring reformed black

1166
00:37:08,910 --> 00:37:11,230
hat hackers, essentially criminals.

1167
00:37:12,610 --> 00:37:16,090
And lastly, we uncovered telegram messages that we've

1168
00:37:16,090 --> 00:37:18,750
linked to this individual in which that telegram

1169
00:37:18,750 --> 00:37:22,770
user is soliciting a cyber attack for hire.

1170
00:37:22,770 --> 00:37:25,070
So actually looking for someone to perform a

1171
00:37:25,070 --> 00:37:27,010
cyber attack at their behest.

1172
00:37:27,210 --> 00:37:29,470
And telegram, of course, is heavily used in

1173
00:37:29,470 --> 00:37:29,770
Russia.

1174
00:37:29,930 --> 00:37:32,230
I mean, it's a definitional social media platform.

1175
00:37:32,370 --> 00:37:33,050
Of course.

1176
00:37:33,190 --> 00:37:36,210
It's heavily used in Ukraine, actually, to be

1177
00:37:36,210 --> 00:37:38,210
quite specific about it, because you've done that

1178
00:37:38,210 --> 00:37:39,070
reporting as well.

1179
00:37:39,870 --> 00:37:42,990
So this is the kind of unhinged, non

1180
00:37:42,990 --> 00:37:45,850
-reporting that is being lauded by— Oh, just

1181
00:37:45,850 --> 00:37:46,990
so— I mean, I'm not going to play

1182
00:37:46,990 --> 00:37:48,410
any more Care Swisher, but believe me.

1183
00:37:48,610 --> 00:37:50,370
She goes on now, Katie, you're just knocking

1184
00:37:50,370 --> 00:37:51,010
it out of the park.

1185
00:37:51,210 --> 00:37:52,230
This is so great.

1186
00:37:52,230 --> 00:37:53,850
Wired is so relevant.

1187
00:37:54,730 --> 00:37:57,090
I had a conversation with a friend of

1188
00:37:57,090 --> 00:38:02,790
mine who's a famous publisher, and he mocked

1189
00:38:02,790 --> 00:38:06,050
me for even suggesting that Wired was even

1190
00:38:06,050 --> 00:38:11,650
relevant on any level in the entire world's

1191
00:38:11,650 --> 00:38:12,250
dimensions.

1192
00:38:12,650 --> 00:38:14,450
So it's like— When did you say this?

1193
00:38:14,490 --> 00:38:15,730
It must have been a while ago that

1194
00:38:15,730 --> 00:38:16,750
you said that.

1195
00:38:16,830 --> 00:38:18,270
I can't believe you would have said that.

1196
00:38:18,270 --> 00:38:21,170
I was defending a writer that worked there,

1197
00:38:21,290 --> 00:38:22,590
and it was a long story.

1198
00:38:22,770 --> 00:38:24,990
But the point is that these guys are

1199
00:38:24,990 --> 00:38:25,390
losers.

1200
00:38:25,770 --> 00:38:27,490
Now, let's get back to clip four.

1201
00:38:28,110 --> 00:38:28,490
Oh, I'm sorry.

1202
00:38:28,510 --> 00:38:29,770
I didn't know you had another clip.

1203
00:38:29,870 --> 00:38:32,150
I thought— Oh, my apologies.

1204
00:38:32,910 --> 00:38:33,590
No, that's okay.

1205
00:38:33,750 --> 00:38:35,670
It did not break the stream of consciousness.

1206
00:38:35,790 --> 00:38:37,470
It was fine, and I got— Then from

1207
00:38:37,470 --> 00:38:40,210
there, I got three more that go in

1208
00:38:40,210 --> 00:38:41,050
a different direction.

1209
00:38:41,190 --> 00:38:42,670
Well— Since we're talking about Doge.

1210
00:38:43,030 --> 00:38:44,450
But I want to stick with Doge, because

1211
00:38:44,450 --> 00:38:45,930
I have something to talk about, Joe.

1212
00:38:46,030 --> 00:38:47,470
But what is clip four?

1213
00:38:47,470 --> 00:38:48,690
I see one, two, three.

1214
00:38:49,310 --> 00:38:49,770
What?

1215
00:38:50,530 --> 00:38:53,110
I see Doge takedown one, takedown two— Oh,

1216
00:38:53,190 --> 00:38:54,750
you did the takedown clips.

1217
00:38:54,830 --> 00:38:55,530
Oh, I'm sorry.

1218
00:38:55,630 --> 00:38:55,930
Yes.

1219
00:38:56,690 --> 00:38:59,070
No, the clips— You're somewhere else.

1220
00:38:59,150 --> 00:38:59,790
You're somewhere else.

1221
00:39:00,310 --> 00:39:01,450
I'm glad you did that.

1222
00:39:01,650 --> 00:39:03,250
Those are the takedown clips.

1223
00:39:03,410 --> 00:39:07,250
No, USAIF distraught clips.

1224
00:39:07,530 --> 00:39:08,570
What is USAIF?

1225
00:39:10,350 --> 00:39:11,270
USAID mistypo.

1226
00:39:11,490 --> 00:39:13,170
Can I lead you into that?

1227
00:39:13,590 --> 00:39:14,850
I would hope you would.

1228
00:39:14,950 --> 00:39:15,170
Okay.

1229
00:39:15,810 --> 00:39:19,150
Because it's important to understand that the No

1230
00:39:19,150 --> 00:39:23,930
Agenda Show, very early on, made friends—because we

1231
00:39:23,930 --> 00:39:27,590
are friends and we're genuine—with all systems administrators.

1232
00:39:28,070 --> 00:39:32,010
And it really came to a crescendo during

1233
00:39:32,010 --> 00:39:32,830
the— Dude's name, Ben.

1234
00:39:32,890 --> 00:39:33,190
Yes.

1235
00:39:33,350 --> 00:39:34,090
That's where it comes from.

1236
00:39:34,090 --> 00:39:34,350
Yes.

1237
00:39:34,490 --> 00:39:38,330
During the IRS hearings, where the IRS were

1238
00:39:38,330 --> 00:39:40,070
going after non-profits.

1239
00:39:40,410 --> 00:39:41,990
And I think it was Chaffetz who said,

1240
00:39:41,990 --> 00:39:43,950
so where did you learn about this?

1241
00:39:44,010 --> 00:39:44,290
I don't know.

1242
00:39:44,350 --> 00:39:46,110
Some guy in the IT department.

1243
00:39:46,270 --> 00:39:46,370
Who?

1244
00:39:46,730 --> 00:39:47,210
Ben.

1245
00:39:47,330 --> 00:39:47,950
His name was Ben.

1246
00:39:48,050 --> 00:39:48,950
Some dude named Ben.

1247
00:39:49,070 --> 00:39:53,570
And now every sysadmin addresses themselves in No

1248
00:39:53,570 --> 00:39:55,950
Agenda Nation, addresses themselves as dude named Ben

1249
00:39:55,950 --> 00:39:57,770
or dudette named Bernadette.

1250
00:39:58,290 --> 00:39:59,430
And dude named Mohammed.

1251
00:39:59,590 --> 00:40:00,830
And dude named Mohammed.

1252
00:40:00,950 --> 00:40:02,070
As long as it's a dude.

1253
00:40:03,250 --> 00:40:07,450
And we have always respected systems administrators because

1254
00:40:07,450 --> 00:40:09,690
we know that they really make the world—

1255
00:40:09,690 --> 00:40:10,070
They'll save us.

1256
00:40:10,070 --> 00:40:10,390
Yes.

1257
00:40:10,470 --> 00:40:12,630
We have always said when it all comes

1258
00:40:12,630 --> 00:40:14,490
down to it, it's not going to be

1259
00:40:14,490 --> 00:40:15,050
the hams.

1260
00:40:15,270 --> 00:40:17,310
It's going to be the dude's name, Ben.

1261
00:40:17,690 --> 00:40:20,350
So we have a lot of people who

1262
00:40:20,350 --> 00:40:20,930
reach out.

1263
00:40:21,070 --> 00:40:22,910
And I learned a couple things that I

1264
00:40:22,910 --> 00:40:24,010
thought were quite interesting.

1265
00:40:24,790 --> 00:40:27,550
And I wasn't really ready to confirm it

1266
00:40:27,550 --> 00:40:32,770
until I heard—and this is quite amazing— I

1267
00:40:32,770 --> 00:40:34,830
heard Antonio Gracias.

1268
00:40:35,450 --> 00:40:35,670
No.

1269
00:40:36,130 --> 00:40:36,270
Yeah.

1270
00:40:36,370 --> 00:40:37,470
Gracias is his name.

1271
00:40:38,110 --> 00:40:41,810
And he works with Elon.

1272
00:40:42,470 --> 00:40:46,270
And I think he was part of Doge

1273
00:40:46,270 --> 00:40:48,570
or is part of Doge.

1274
00:40:48,850 --> 00:40:50,610
And he can—and I'll play this clip first.

1275
00:40:50,690 --> 00:40:53,130
There's a little gotcha in here as he's

1276
00:40:53,130 --> 00:40:59,550
talking about what they discovered inside the federal—

1277
00:41:00,390 --> 00:41:08,590
inside the—so the financial— what's the—what is the

1278
00:41:08,590 --> 00:41:09,630
term I'm looking for?

1279
00:41:09,930 --> 00:41:10,330
I don't know.

1280
00:41:10,650 --> 00:41:11,170
The treasury.

1281
00:41:11,550 --> 00:41:14,850
Inside the treasury systems what they discovered that

1282
00:41:14,850 --> 00:41:16,810
the real problem is with these systems.

1283
00:41:16,890 --> 00:41:18,310
And this is from the All In podcast

1284
00:41:18,310 --> 00:41:19,770
with Jason Calacanis.

1285
00:41:20,490 --> 00:41:22,070
And there's a little bit in here which

1286
00:41:22,070 --> 00:41:23,670
is just—that confirmed it for me.

1287
00:41:23,730 --> 00:41:24,970
And then I'll tell you what I've understood

1288
00:41:24,970 --> 00:41:25,870
about Doge.

1289
00:41:26,050 --> 00:41:28,550
The way the government works, a department just

1290
00:41:28,550 --> 00:41:30,630
basically asks for money from treasury and they

1291
00:41:30,630 --> 00:41:31,110
send it out.

1292
00:41:31,750 --> 00:41:32,590
We all run businesses.

1293
00:41:33,010 --> 00:41:34,250
There's a reconciliation process.

1294
00:41:34,250 --> 00:41:37,290
You have a contract, you issue a PO

1295
00:41:37,290 --> 00:41:39,430
against it, something comes in, you check that

1296
00:41:39,430 --> 00:41:41,810
it came in, services is rendered, and then

1297
00:41:41,810 --> 00:41:44,210
you issue a payable and then a month

1298
00:41:44,210 --> 00:41:44,990
later you pay it, right?

1299
00:41:45,470 --> 00:41:46,470
That doesn't happen in the U.S. government.

1300
00:41:47,010 --> 00:41:48,710
There is—that process is broken.

1301
00:41:48,870 --> 00:41:49,510
It used to happen.

1302
00:41:49,870 --> 00:41:50,650
It's broken now.

1303
00:41:50,970 --> 00:41:52,910
And so, literally, money's flowing out.

1304
00:41:53,010 --> 00:41:55,150
I used to ask myself this question, why

1305
00:41:55,150 --> 00:41:56,090
are the numbers always revised?

1306
00:41:56,230 --> 00:41:56,910
Why are they always wrong?

1307
00:41:56,990 --> 00:41:57,950
How can the government know how much money

1308
00:41:57,950 --> 00:41:58,190
in Spain?

1309
00:41:58,250 --> 00:41:59,350
Just hit the button in the computer and

1310
00:41:59,350 --> 00:41:59,870
figure it out.

1311
00:42:00,130 --> 00:42:02,130
Problem is, that button doesn't exist.

1312
00:42:02,350 --> 00:42:03,610
We spent time early on.

1313
00:42:04,130 --> 00:42:05,250
Mar-a-Lago with Elon trying to track

1314
00:42:05,250 --> 00:42:07,330
through, like, how does the money actually flow?

1315
00:42:08,150 --> 00:42:09,290
No one could tell us how it actually

1316
00:42:09,290 --> 00:42:09,490
flows.

1317
00:42:09,610 --> 00:42:10,750
Where is it going out?

1318
00:42:11,230 --> 00:42:11,810
People didn't know.

1319
00:42:12,210 --> 00:42:15,870
So he's saying that there's no reconciliation process

1320
00:42:15,870 --> 00:42:18,810
and that would be—I'll give you an example.

1321
00:42:19,150 --> 00:42:21,430
Tina comes in and she says, hey, I'm

1322
00:42:21,430 --> 00:42:24,630
looking at the credit card receipt here and

1323
00:42:24,630 --> 00:42:27,090
something was paid for on my card for

1324
00:42:27,090 --> 00:42:29,570
some hoodie, but I didn't order it.

1325
00:42:29,950 --> 00:42:31,830
And I say, oh no, I ordered that.

1326
00:42:31,950 --> 00:42:32,510
Here's the hoodie.

1327
00:42:33,070 --> 00:42:35,110
Yeah, Mimi does the same thing.

1328
00:42:35,310 --> 00:42:36,110
Yeah, reconciled.

1329
00:42:36,250 --> 00:42:38,030
And it's because something was under her— If

1330
00:42:38,030 --> 00:42:39,250
you're married, this happens.

1331
00:42:39,430 --> 00:42:41,670
This reconciliation is a common thing.

1332
00:42:42,110 --> 00:42:42,330
Very common.

1333
00:42:42,710 --> 00:42:43,990
And it was because the account was in

1334
00:42:43,990 --> 00:42:45,770
her name and that's why the hoodie was

1335
00:42:45,770 --> 00:42:46,750
charged to her card.

1336
00:42:47,170 --> 00:42:48,510
And so that's reconciliation.

1337
00:42:48,830 --> 00:42:51,990
So this does not exist within the Treasury

1338
00:42:51,990 --> 00:42:52,510
Department.

1339
00:42:52,890 --> 00:42:54,270
They get a purchase order.

1340
00:42:54,530 --> 00:42:56,930
They pay it, but they pay it without

1341
00:42:56,930 --> 00:42:58,330
saying, hey, was the work done?

1342
00:42:58,450 --> 00:42:59,490
Was the product delivered?

1343
00:42:59,730 --> 00:43:00,370
Did you get it?

1344
00:43:00,430 --> 00:43:01,950
That does not exist.

1345
00:43:02,690 --> 00:43:05,530
Or is the person even alive?

1346
00:43:05,870 --> 00:43:07,810
Now what he said there, if you listen

1347
00:43:07,810 --> 00:43:10,790
carefully, he said, when we were a while

1348
00:43:10,790 --> 00:43:12,970
back looking at this at Mar-a-Lago,

1349
00:43:13,590 --> 00:43:15,570
now this is what I've heard.

1350
00:43:16,030 --> 00:43:19,350
I've heard that these four teenagers, these youngsters,

1351
00:43:19,690 --> 00:43:24,250
these racist, eugenicist people were in the Treasury

1352
00:43:24,250 --> 00:43:28,230
Department at midnight on January 21st.

1353
00:43:28,230 --> 00:43:32,290
And they sucked down the entire—the database is

1354
00:43:32,290 --> 00:43:34,210
a database whether it runs on COBOL or

1355
00:43:34,210 --> 00:43:34,530
not.

1356
00:43:35,310 --> 00:43:35,610
That's right.

1357
00:43:35,770 --> 00:43:38,010
And they got the—I think for 2023 and

1358
00:43:38,010 --> 00:43:38,790
2024.

1359
00:43:39,570 --> 00:43:41,290
And then they exited the building.

1360
00:43:41,730 --> 00:43:45,610
They have had this information, all the information—the

1361
00:43:45,610 --> 00:43:48,150
Treasury Department is the government's bank account.

1362
00:43:48,250 --> 00:43:50,190
It's one account and it goes into the

1363
00:43:50,190 --> 00:43:52,130
Federal Reserve System and payments are made.

1364
00:43:52,630 --> 00:43:55,150
And they have—that's why you see Data Republican,

1365
00:43:55,350 --> 00:43:56,930
all these different websites popping up.

1366
00:43:56,930 --> 00:43:59,010
They have had this for weeks.

1367
00:43:59,130 --> 00:44:00,490
They're not in there anymore.

1368
00:44:00,810 --> 00:44:03,490
This is—at this point, it's a troll exercise.

1369
00:44:03,970 --> 00:44:05,970
Who are we going to mess with next?

1370
00:44:06,170 --> 00:44:09,330
As they just go through everything slowly, like,

1371
00:44:09,430 --> 00:44:11,630
OK, there's this payment, there's that payment.

1372
00:44:11,730 --> 00:44:12,930
Oh, all these things are going.

1373
00:44:14,550 --> 00:44:17,350
The judge who blocked them, who cares?

1374
00:44:17,710 --> 00:44:19,010
They were in, they were out.

1375
00:44:19,610 --> 00:44:21,730
And they— Yes, this is another thing J

1376
00:44:21,730 --> 00:44:22,530
.C. talked about.

1377
00:44:22,910 --> 00:44:25,370
And you should mention that Data Republican thing

1378
00:44:25,370 --> 00:44:25,790
again.

1379
00:44:26,670 --> 00:44:27,850
DataRepublican.com.

1380
00:44:28,570 --> 00:44:29,950
Yes, that people should look at that.

1381
00:44:30,450 --> 00:44:33,250
And there's a lot of information.

1382
00:44:34,090 --> 00:44:36,490
And he mentioned that at least one of

1383
00:44:36,490 --> 00:44:39,110
these groups that are plowing through this data

1384
00:44:39,790 --> 00:44:43,630
has found that Chelsea Clinton has gotten tens

1385
00:44:43,630 --> 00:44:44,590
of millions of dollars.

1386
00:44:44,830 --> 00:44:47,330
Well, that's a little disingenuous because they added

1387
00:44:47,330 --> 00:44:50,570
her name to the Hillary and Bill Clinton

1388
00:44:50,570 --> 00:44:51,250
Foundation.

1389
00:44:51,390 --> 00:44:52,510
They added her name.

1390
00:44:53,150 --> 00:44:55,410
So, you know, all the payments that went

1391
00:44:55,410 --> 00:44:57,770
to the Clinton Foundation is now the Chelsea

1392
00:44:57,770 --> 00:45:00,170
Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton Foundation.

1393
00:45:00,170 --> 00:45:01,130
OK, well, I'll go with it.

1394
00:45:01,210 --> 00:45:03,250
I have no evidence to the contrary.

1395
00:45:03,570 --> 00:45:04,290
I looked at it.

1396
00:45:04,330 --> 00:45:05,530
When you said take a look at it,

1397
00:45:05,550 --> 00:45:06,230
I looked at it.

1398
00:45:06,610 --> 00:45:09,330
I'll just play this second clip of this

1399
00:45:09,330 --> 00:45:12,950
Antonio Garcia because he explains when this happened

1400
00:45:12,950 --> 00:45:16,310
and how long this non-reconciliation, i.e.

1401
00:45:16,330 --> 00:45:18,850
the government is just paying whatever they're—the Treasury

1402
00:45:18,850 --> 00:45:21,350
is paying whatever they're told to pay, how

1403
00:45:21,350 --> 00:45:22,450
long it's been going on.

1404
00:45:22,710 --> 00:45:24,250
It was changed in the 70s—in the 70s,

1405
00:45:24,270 --> 00:45:24,930
in 1973.

1406
00:45:25,710 --> 00:45:27,930
The Nixon administration at—in 71, let me go

1407
00:45:27,930 --> 00:45:29,230
back, they came off the gold standard, which

1408
00:45:29,230 --> 00:45:29,730
allowed deficits.

1409
00:45:29,890 --> 00:45:32,030
In 73, at the nadir of the Nixon

1410
00:45:32,030 --> 00:45:34,830
presidency, Congress took away from the presidency the

1411
00:45:34,830 --> 00:45:37,030
executive power, this thing called the apportionments, which

1412
00:45:37,030 --> 00:45:38,290
was the power of the executive to stop

1413
00:45:38,290 --> 00:45:38,630
spending.

1414
00:45:39,070 --> 00:45:40,850
So Nixon was abusing it by stopping what

1415
00:45:40,850 --> 00:45:41,410
he didn't want.

1416
00:45:41,690 --> 00:45:42,650
And so Congress took away from him.

1417
00:45:42,690 --> 00:45:45,470
What that means today is the executive, as

1418
00:45:45,470 --> 00:45:47,470
he reaches in, it's very hard to just

1419
00:45:47,470 --> 00:45:48,090
stop payments.

1420
00:45:48,690 --> 00:45:53,310
So what's happening is the government is put

1421
00:45:53,310 --> 00:45:54,570
in a process where they would just have

1422
00:45:54,570 --> 00:45:58,350
an authorized executive kind of stamp, a bill

1423
00:45:58,350 --> 00:45:59,150
that got paid.

1424
00:45:59,170 --> 00:45:59,930
That broke.

1425
00:46:00,310 --> 00:46:01,490
I don't know when it broke, but it

1426
00:46:01,490 --> 00:46:01,950
broke sometime.

1427
00:46:02,250 --> 00:46:05,610
So the money flow now, the department gets

1428
00:46:05,610 --> 00:46:08,030
a budget authorized to it by Congress.

1429
00:46:08,270 --> 00:46:08,990
It goes to OMB.

1430
00:46:09,270 --> 00:46:10,330
OMB allocates the budget.

1431
00:46:10,850 --> 00:46:13,370
That department then just sends a money request

1432
00:46:13,370 --> 00:46:14,970
to Treasury to pay.

1433
00:46:15,650 --> 00:46:17,170
It is not reconciled against what happened.

1434
00:46:17,170 --> 00:46:20,930
So so once you have a budget, you

1435
00:46:20,930 --> 00:46:22,870
can just make payments, whatever you want.

1436
00:46:22,970 --> 00:46:24,110
It's not checked.

1437
00:46:24,650 --> 00:46:25,490
Nothing is checked.

1438
00:46:26,250 --> 00:46:28,050
So this is what this is what we

1439
00:46:28,050 --> 00:46:30,550
continuously have to keep in mind when they're

1440
00:46:30,550 --> 00:46:33,910
going into the Department of Education, when they're

1441
00:46:33,910 --> 00:46:34,630
going into USA.

1442
00:46:34,770 --> 00:46:36,690
They had all the information for weeks.

1443
00:46:36,730 --> 00:46:38,010
They already know everything.

1444
00:46:38,510 --> 00:46:40,990
It's not like the Doge team is being

1445
00:46:40,990 --> 00:46:44,150
is being protected with armed guards while they're

1446
00:46:44,150 --> 00:46:46,510
tinkering away and trying to stop payments.

1447
00:46:46,510 --> 00:46:47,530
They're not even in there.

1448
00:46:47,730 --> 00:46:49,070
That's why the guy resigned.

1449
00:46:49,170 --> 00:46:49,990
He's already done.

1450
00:46:50,130 --> 00:46:51,570
I'm back in India, whatever.

1451
00:46:52,210 --> 00:46:53,250
He's having a good time.

1452
00:46:53,910 --> 00:46:55,430
So now I want to go from there

1453
00:46:55,430 --> 00:46:58,950
to USAID and introduce it with because we

1454
00:46:58,950 --> 00:47:03,350
have been talking about USAID ever since the

1455
00:47:03,350 --> 00:47:09,010
economic hitman and the economic hitman was a

1456
00:47:09,010 --> 00:47:11,150
great thematic book for this show early on.

1457
00:47:11,150 --> 00:47:12,890
Yes, written by John Perkins.

1458
00:47:13,690 --> 00:47:17,270
And I'll just give the quick definition.

1459
00:47:17,350 --> 00:47:20,130
According to the book, economic hitmen are highly

1460
00:47:20,130 --> 00:47:22,510
paid professionals who cheat countries around the globe

1461
00:47:22,510 --> 00:47:23,630
out of trillions of dollars.

1462
00:47:23,770 --> 00:47:25,870
They funnel money from the World Bank, the

1463
00:47:25,870 --> 00:47:29,510
U.S. Agency for International Development, USAID, and

1464
00:47:29,510 --> 00:47:33,150
other foreign aid organizations into the coffers of

1465
00:47:33,150 --> 00:47:35,170
huge corporations in the pockets of a few

1466
00:47:35,170 --> 00:47:38,410
wealthy families who control the planet's natural resources.

1467
00:47:38,410 --> 00:47:42,130
Their tools include fraudulent financial reports, rigged elections,

1468
00:47:42,370 --> 00:47:44,750
payoff, extortion, sex, and murder.

1469
00:47:45,190 --> 00:47:47,170
They play a game as old as empire,

1470
00:47:47,510 --> 00:47:49,150
but one that has taken on new and

1471
00:47:49,150 --> 00:47:51,910
terrifying dimensions during this time of globalization.

1472
00:47:52,930 --> 00:47:55,290
And I'm going to play the very first

1473
00:47:55,290 --> 00:47:55,830
time.

1474
00:47:56,510 --> 00:47:59,810
I went to bingit.io. Any podcast can

1475
00:47:59,810 --> 00:48:01,430
get a bingit.io of their own.

1476
00:48:01,570 --> 00:48:02,650
Talk to Sir Deanonymous.

1477
00:48:02,730 --> 00:48:03,670
It's on the website.

1478
00:48:04,530 --> 00:48:06,590
I'm going to play the very first time

1479
00:48:06,590 --> 00:48:11,170
we talked about USAID, and that was on

1480
00:48:11,170 --> 00:48:19,890
episode 112, Sunday, July 12, 2009.

1481
00:48:20,450 --> 00:48:21,410
Here we go, everybody.

1482
00:48:23,910 --> 00:48:27,310
I should say, by the way, sincere apologies

1483
00:48:27,310 --> 00:48:31,610
for the horrible Skype audio that I even

1484
00:48:31,610 --> 00:48:33,490
allowed to be recorded at the time.

1485
00:48:33,490 --> 00:48:34,510
It's really bad.

1486
00:48:34,690 --> 00:48:36,630
The synopsis for this grant opportunity is detailed

1487
00:48:36,630 --> 00:48:37,330
below.

1488
00:48:38,450 --> 00:48:40,070
Eligible applicants, others.

1489
00:48:40,650 --> 00:48:42,470
To be eligible for the cooperative agreement under

1490
00:48:42,470 --> 00:48:44,510
this RFA, an organization must be a U

1491
00:48:44,510 --> 00:48:45,530
.S.-based institution.

1492
00:48:45,810 --> 00:48:47,190
Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah,

1493
00:48:47,190 --> 00:48:47,430
bah.

1494
00:48:48,090 --> 00:48:51,290
Description, the USAID is launching a coordinated comprehensive

1495
00:48:51,290 --> 00:48:52,670
program designed to minimize Ooh, USAID.

1496
00:48:52,810 --> 00:48:53,830
I know, I know.

1497
00:48:53,910 --> 00:48:54,850
I said USAID.

1498
00:48:54,950 --> 00:48:56,870
I was tricked in the beginning already to

1499
00:48:56,870 --> 00:48:59,230
say USAID instead of USAID.

1500
00:48:59,230 --> 00:49:02,710
The USAID is launching a coordinated comprehensive program

1501
00:49:02,710 --> 00:49:05,510
designed to minimize the impact of specific newly

1502
00:49:05,510 --> 00:49:08,950
emergent diseases of animal origin, which pose a

1503
00:49:08,950 --> 00:49:11,310
significant threat to human health and development.

1504
00:49:11,530 --> 00:49:13,450
The program must be managed by the USAID

1505
00:49:13,450 --> 00:49:15,890
Avian and Pandemic Influenza Unit.

1506
00:49:16,150 --> 00:49:19,270
2009, they were already getting ready for pandemics

1507
00:49:19,270 --> 00:49:20,910
through USAID.

1508
00:49:21,210 --> 00:49:21,550
Huh?

1509
00:49:22,790 --> 00:49:26,150
USAID will closely work with international host governments,

1510
00:49:26,310 --> 00:49:28,990
USG, and private sector entities to coordinate activities

1511
00:49:28,990 --> 00:49:31,390
and ensure that U.S. Who is this

1512
00:49:31,390 --> 00:49:32,090
USAID?

1513
00:49:32,570 --> 00:49:34,030
That's an economic hitman.

1514
00:49:34,650 --> 00:49:36,230
Is that a company, USAID?

1515
00:49:36,910 --> 00:49:38,210
It's an agency or something.

1516
00:49:38,210 --> 00:49:38,590
I don't know.

1517
00:49:38,650 --> 00:49:39,270
It's a good question.

1518
00:49:39,430 --> 00:49:41,010
I mean, as far as I, every time

1519
00:49:41,010 --> 00:49:44,790
I see it, it's the United States.

1520
00:49:44,930 --> 00:49:48,690
Here it is, USAID.gov. Oh, man.

1521
00:49:50,650 --> 00:49:52,210
USAID from the American people.

1522
00:49:52,330 --> 00:49:53,810
This is money we're giving away.

1523
00:49:54,690 --> 00:49:56,750
The U.S. Agency for International Development.

1524
00:49:57,670 --> 00:49:58,850
Yeah, that's what it is.

1525
00:49:58,990 --> 00:50:02,170
This is the economic hitman that we've talked

1526
00:50:02,170 --> 00:50:02,870
about in the past.

1527
00:50:03,050 --> 00:50:04,030
That's what this is.

1528
00:50:04,450 --> 00:50:04,850
You know what?

1529
00:50:04,930 --> 00:50:06,970
These are $18 million websites, John.

1530
00:50:07,210 --> 00:50:08,590
This is not just any old site.

1531
00:50:08,690 --> 00:50:09,090
Remember that?

1532
00:50:09,330 --> 00:50:09,730
It's unbelievable.

1533
00:50:10,430 --> 00:50:12,590
The U.S. Agency for International Development is

1534
00:50:12,590 --> 00:50:17,630
an independent agency, independent, that provides economic development

1535
00:50:17,630 --> 00:50:21,370
and humanitarian assistance around the world in support

1536
00:50:21,370 --> 00:50:23,890
of the foreign policy goals of the United

1537
00:50:23,890 --> 00:50:24,450
States.

1538
00:50:24,710 --> 00:50:24,990
OK.

1539
00:50:25,310 --> 00:50:25,510
Yeah.

1540
00:50:25,790 --> 00:50:26,790
Economic hitman.

1541
00:50:26,790 --> 00:50:27,550
There you go.

1542
00:50:28,130 --> 00:50:29,340
There you go.

1543
00:50:31,050 --> 00:50:34,030
So we obviously talked about the economic hitman

1544
00:50:34,030 --> 00:50:35,650
earlier than 2009.

1545
00:50:35,970 --> 00:50:37,990
Yes, but we hadn't put it all together.

1546
00:50:38,190 --> 00:50:41,110
And this is the days of the $18

1547
00:50:41,110 --> 00:50:44,670
million websites that we were moaning about, that

1548
00:50:44,670 --> 00:50:47,590
Obama was putting together, and we were laughing

1549
00:50:47,590 --> 00:50:48,170
about it.

1550
00:50:48,710 --> 00:50:52,810
So we have been observing USAID for a

1551
00:50:52,810 --> 00:50:56,250
long, long time and have always, we never

1552
00:50:56,250 --> 00:50:59,250
really considered that they were, you know, buying

1553
00:50:59,250 --> 00:51:01,690
Politico pro subscriptions.

1554
00:51:02,030 --> 00:51:05,190
What a bunch of horse crap that is.

1555
00:51:05,570 --> 00:51:06,010
No, no, no.

1556
00:51:06,050 --> 00:51:08,290
They didn't pay us to do stories.

1557
00:51:08,630 --> 00:51:11,370
They subscribed to our pro service.

1558
00:51:11,570 --> 00:51:12,250
OK, fine.

1559
00:51:12,930 --> 00:51:15,990
So now let's get into USAID.

1560
00:51:17,250 --> 00:51:17,830
John Cena, where do I go?

1561
00:51:17,830 --> 00:51:21,430
And we should mention that Politico is owned

1562
00:51:21,430 --> 00:51:23,490
by a German publishing house.

1563
00:51:23,690 --> 00:51:23,870
Yes, by Springer.

1564
00:51:24,030 --> 00:51:25,730
By Springer, which makes it even worse.

1565
00:51:26,290 --> 00:51:27,610
Yeah, it does make it worse.

1566
00:51:27,790 --> 00:51:27,890
Yeah.

1567
00:51:29,310 --> 00:51:30,710
OK, I'm ready.

1568
00:51:32,190 --> 00:51:32,490
All right.

1569
00:51:32,770 --> 00:51:33,450
For what?

1570
00:51:33,690 --> 00:51:35,430
For your USAID clips.

1571
00:51:35,890 --> 00:51:36,410
Oh, OK.

1572
00:51:36,530 --> 00:51:38,930
Well, the clips I have, this goes in

1573
00:51:38,930 --> 00:51:40,830
a different direction than the first ones.

1574
00:51:41,110 --> 00:51:41,770
Yeah, that's fine.

1575
00:51:42,130 --> 00:51:45,810
This is more reporting from NPR about how

1576
00:51:45,810 --> 00:51:50,290
horrible what's going on is going on.

1577
00:51:50,350 --> 00:51:54,150
This is the distraught employees clips.

1578
00:51:54,150 --> 00:51:56,530
Yesterday has brought more news about the Trump

1579
00:51:56,530 --> 00:51:57,650
administration's efforts.

1580
00:51:57,910 --> 00:51:58,970
You're your favorite guy.

1581
00:51:59,030 --> 00:52:02,530
This is what tomorrow talk about his administration.

1582
00:52:03,110 --> 00:52:06,270
Yesterday has brought more news about I think

1583
00:52:06,270 --> 00:52:07,430
he learned from Tom Brokaw.

1584
00:52:07,630 --> 00:52:10,030
The Trump administration's efforts to shut down or

1585
00:52:10,030 --> 00:52:12,590
dramatically change parts of the federal government.

1586
00:52:13,310 --> 00:52:15,790
A judge has temporarily stopped Elon Musk and

1587
00:52:15,790 --> 00:52:18,210
his Doge team from getting access to sensitive

1588
00:52:18,210 --> 00:52:19,590
Treasury Department records.

1589
00:52:19,590 --> 00:52:21,310
begin now with the move to shut down

1590
00:52:21,310 --> 00:52:24,370
the United States Agency for International Development.

1591
00:52:24,570 --> 00:52:26,950
60-year-old agency manages most of America's

1592
00:52:26,950 --> 00:52:29,670
foreign aid programs, but the Trump administration has

1593
00:52:29,670 --> 00:52:32,950
paused all foreign assistance and put the agency's

1594
00:52:32,950 --> 00:52:35,410
13,000 employees on administrative leave.

1595
00:52:36,130 --> 00:52:38,670
Yesterday, a judge stepped in to block that

1596
00:52:38,670 --> 00:52:41,050
administrative leave order for more than 2,000

1597
00:52:41,050 --> 00:52:41,730
of the employees.

1598
00:52:41,930 --> 00:52:42,610
I can't help it.

1599
00:52:42,690 --> 00:52:44,090
And this is so old-fashioned.

1600
00:52:44,530 --> 00:52:46,370
You know that the guy, you're a great

1601
00:52:46,370 --> 00:52:46,630
man.

1602
00:52:46,730 --> 00:52:47,990
You sound just like Tom Brokaw.

1603
00:52:48,130 --> 00:52:48,830
I'm back in the dash.

1604
00:52:48,930 --> 00:52:49,170
Right.

1605
00:52:49,790 --> 00:52:52,250
NPR Global Health Correspondent, Correspondent.

1606
00:52:52,390 --> 00:52:52,490
Wait, stop.

1607
00:52:52,790 --> 00:52:55,490
This is the, besides blowing the line there,

1608
00:52:55,830 --> 00:52:57,510
she's the health, there's a woman that he

1609
00:52:57,510 --> 00:52:59,550
brings on as the health correspondent.

1610
00:52:59,770 --> 00:53:00,030
Yes.

1611
00:53:01,110 --> 00:53:02,830
What does that got to do with the

1612
00:53:02,830 --> 00:53:03,570
price of bread?

1613
00:53:03,670 --> 00:53:06,350
Well, I would say since USAID has been

1614
00:53:06,350 --> 00:53:09,530
funding pandemic research since we started looking at

1615
00:53:09,530 --> 00:53:09,790
them.

1616
00:53:09,950 --> 00:53:10,870
Oh, there you go.

1617
00:53:10,870 --> 00:53:13,350
And a lot of other research we will

1618
00:53:13,350 --> 00:53:14,430
discuss in a moment.

1619
00:53:14,610 --> 00:53:15,870
Yeah, I think it's pretty relevant.

1620
00:53:16,210 --> 00:53:16,430
Employees.

1621
00:53:17,030 --> 00:53:20,590
NPR Global Health Correspondent, Correspondent Fatima Tanis joins

1622
00:53:20,590 --> 00:53:20,770
us.

1623
00:53:20,870 --> 00:53:22,270
Fatima, thanks so much for being with us.

1624
00:53:22,310 --> 00:53:22,650
Thank you.

1625
00:53:22,770 --> 00:53:23,490
Thank you, Scott.

1626
00:53:23,670 --> 00:53:26,810
You've been speaking to many USAID employees.

1627
00:53:27,510 --> 00:53:29,830
Now he's made a new one, USAID.

1628
00:53:32,870 --> 00:53:34,990
He's trying, oh wow, this is just so

1629
00:53:34,990 --> 00:53:35,250
bad.

1630
00:53:35,910 --> 00:53:36,730
Thank you, Scott.

1631
00:53:36,730 --> 00:53:39,730
You've been speaking to many USAID employees.

1632
00:53:40,510 --> 00:53:41,430
How do they react?

1633
00:53:42,350 --> 00:53:43,710
Well, Scott, people are distraught.

1634
00:53:43,830 --> 00:53:45,430
You know, since the inauguration, I've been talking

1635
00:53:45,430 --> 00:53:47,930
to senior officials, agency staff, both here and

1636
00:53:47,930 --> 00:53:49,830
overseas, and they didn't want to reveal their

1637
00:53:49,830 --> 00:53:51,790
names because they're not authorized to speak to

1638
00:53:51,790 --> 00:53:52,190
the press.

1639
00:53:52,270 --> 00:53:54,030
And some were afraid of being targeted by

1640
00:53:54,030 --> 00:53:54,750
the administration.

1641
00:53:55,210 --> 00:53:57,490
They say that effectively one of the biggest

1642
00:53:57,490 --> 00:54:00,190
aid agencies in the world doesn't exist anymore.

1643
00:54:00,410 --> 00:54:00,890
They're shocked.

1644
00:54:00,890 --> 00:54:02,170
Right there, right there.

1645
00:54:02,770 --> 00:54:05,010
They're calling it an aid organization.

1646
00:54:05,490 --> 00:54:09,270
And the name is Agency for International Developments.

1647
00:54:09,430 --> 00:54:12,290
And as we heard in the exact definition

1648
00:54:12,290 --> 00:54:16,810
in the throwback clip, it is to enhance

1649
00:54:16,810 --> 00:54:18,090
the American agenda.

1650
00:54:18,830 --> 00:54:20,150
It's not to provide aid.

1651
00:54:20,290 --> 00:54:23,190
This is the PSYOP that the name is.

1652
00:54:23,190 --> 00:54:24,750
Yeah, when you were caught in it by

1653
00:54:24,750 --> 00:54:28,450
saying USAID, USAID, USAID, or in 2009, by

1654
00:54:28,450 --> 00:54:30,530
the way, this was what?

1655
00:54:30,990 --> 00:54:32,530
Almost 20 years ago.

1656
00:54:32,610 --> 00:54:33,690
It's a long time.

1657
00:54:33,810 --> 00:54:34,390
It's long enough.

1658
00:54:34,530 --> 00:54:34,650
Yeah.

1659
00:54:35,030 --> 00:54:37,370
Effectively, one of the biggest aid agencies in

1660
00:54:37,370 --> 00:54:39,010
the world doesn't exist anymore.

1661
00:54:39,210 --> 00:54:41,270
They're shocked at the dizzying speed in which

1662
00:54:41,270 --> 00:54:42,350
things have unraveled.

1663
00:54:42,670 --> 00:54:44,550
And they say the way that they are

1664
00:54:44,550 --> 00:54:46,710
being treated by the administration has also been

1665
00:54:46,710 --> 00:54:47,090
shocking.

1666
00:54:47,450 --> 00:54:49,450
Many people have lost access to their government

1667
00:54:49,450 --> 00:54:50,530
accounts and emails.

1668
00:54:50,790 --> 00:54:53,650
The ones staffed overseas have been ordered back

1669
00:54:53,650 --> 00:54:55,010
to the U.S. in 30 days.

1670
00:54:55,370 --> 00:54:57,470
And they say they feel completely abandoned by

1671
00:54:57,470 --> 00:54:57,930
their government.

1672
00:54:57,930 --> 00:54:59,530
Many are in conflict zones.

1673
00:54:59,610 --> 00:55:01,550
They're concerned about their personal security.

1674
00:55:02,190 --> 00:55:03,830
They're told to come back, but they don't

1675
00:55:03,830 --> 00:55:05,730
have homes in the U.S. or jobs

1676
00:55:05,730 --> 00:55:06,410
or insurance.

1677
00:55:06,950 --> 00:55:08,650
And some are pregnant due to their due

1678
00:55:08,650 --> 00:55:08,810
date.

1679
00:55:08,890 --> 00:55:10,890
So their delivery plans have also been appended.

1680
00:55:11,230 --> 00:55:11,410
Babies.

1681
00:55:11,490 --> 00:55:12,330
Oh, wait, wait.

1682
00:55:12,370 --> 00:55:14,470
Their delivery plans have been appended.

1683
00:55:14,650 --> 00:55:15,910
I mean, they're going to deliver later.

1684
00:55:16,550 --> 00:55:16,650
What?

1685
00:55:17,010 --> 00:55:17,530
Hold on.

1686
00:55:17,650 --> 00:55:19,010
Told to come back, but they don't have

1687
00:55:19,010 --> 00:55:20,870
homes in the U.S. or jobs or

1688
00:55:20,870 --> 00:55:21,270
insurance.

1689
00:55:21,770 --> 00:55:23,590
And some are pregnant close to their due

1690
00:55:23,590 --> 00:55:23,770
date.

1691
00:55:23,850 --> 00:55:25,910
So their delivery plans have also been appended.

1692
00:55:25,910 --> 00:55:28,330
Their delivery plans have been appended?

1693
00:55:28,550 --> 00:55:29,190
That's kind of odd.

1694
00:55:29,670 --> 00:55:31,530
No, that's why I wanted to stop it

1695
00:55:31,530 --> 00:55:34,310
there, because that's not what she said.

1696
00:55:34,790 --> 00:55:35,790
What did she say?

1697
00:55:37,230 --> 00:55:37,710
Upended.

1698
00:55:37,950 --> 00:55:38,750
Oh, upended.

1699
00:55:39,090 --> 00:55:39,510
Oh, OK.

1700
00:55:39,950 --> 00:55:42,070
But here's the thinking here.

1701
00:55:42,870 --> 00:55:44,890
She is reading from a script.

1702
00:55:45,030 --> 00:55:46,170
And here's the challenge.

1703
00:55:46,730 --> 00:55:48,270
Write the word upended.

1704
00:55:48,450 --> 00:55:49,470
There's two ways of writing it.

1705
00:55:49,530 --> 00:55:53,230
There's up-ended and upended.

1706
00:55:53,230 --> 00:55:53,870
One word.

1707
00:55:54,050 --> 00:55:56,210
U-P-E-N-D-E-D.

1708
00:55:56,690 --> 00:55:59,230
And the spell checker won't say that's wrong.

1709
00:55:59,290 --> 00:56:00,150
So it'll be fine.

1710
00:56:00,470 --> 00:56:02,370
So you write a script and put U

1711
00:56:02,370 --> 00:56:03,610
-P-E-N-D-E-D.

1712
00:56:03,670 --> 00:56:04,810
And you will say upended.

1713
00:56:05,430 --> 00:56:07,530
She is reading from a script.

1714
00:56:07,610 --> 00:56:09,790
This is a scripted interview.

1715
00:56:09,990 --> 00:56:10,370
Oh, no.

1716
00:56:11,090 --> 00:56:11,570
What?

1717
00:56:11,710 --> 00:56:13,110
Say it's not so.

1718
00:56:13,750 --> 00:56:14,230
I know.

1719
00:56:14,610 --> 00:56:14,830
I know.

1720
00:56:14,950 --> 00:56:15,730
I'm shocked.

1721
00:56:16,150 --> 00:56:16,610
Shocked.

1722
00:56:16,730 --> 00:56:17,210
Very shocked.

1723
00:56:17,310 --> 00:56:17,870
Good catch.

1724
00:56:18,030 --> 00:56:18,490
Good catch.

1725
00:56:19,170 --> 00:56:19,530
You're right.

1726
00:56:19,530 --> 00:56:20,010
Upended.

1727
00:56:20,210 --> 00:56:20,970
She says upended.

1728
00:56:21,170 --> 00:56:21,890
Upended, yes.

1729
00:56:21,950 --> 00:56:23,390
But she meant upended.

1730
00:56:24,010 --> 00:56:25,850
And if you think about it, there's also

1731
00:56:25,850 --> 00:56:26,410
the other thing.

1732
00:56:26,530 --> 00:56:28,590
These people are in places where, oh, my

1733
00:56:28,590 --> 00:56:29,550
God, they got to leave.

1734
00:56:31,050 --> 00:56:33,750
That's because they're spooks, we're talking about here.

1735
00:56:33,850 --> 00:56:35,190
They're spooks, I tell you.

1736
00:56:35,290 --> 00:56:38,370
That are in danger, you know, just by

1737
00:56:38,370 --> 00:56:39,550
the virtue of their job.

1738
00:56:39,590 --> 00:56:40,630
And now they all of a sudden have

1739
00:56:40,630 --> 00:56:41,510
gotten called back.

1740
00:56:41,570 --> 00:56:43,670
And, oh, my God, everything's been upended.

1741
00:56:43,810 --> 00:56:44,990
Upended, yes.

1742
00:56:44,990 --> 00:56:47,110
But, OK, here we go.

1743
00:56:49,350 --> 00:56:51,190
Both sides on this, by the way, I

1744
00:56:51,190 --> 00:56:53,470
think this is why he botched his read

1745
00:56:53,470 --> 00:56:53,990
earlier.

1746
00:56:54,510 --> 00:56:56,030
They're both reading from a script.

1747
00:56:56,170 --> 00:56:57,050
I'm convinced of it.

1748
00:56:57,210 --> 00:56:57,450
I'm with you.

1749
00:56:57,450 --> 00:56:59,050
And this is a script provided by the

1750
00:56:59,050 --> 00:56:59,270
government.

1751
00:56:59,510 --> 00:56:59,790
I'm with you.

1752
00:56:59,850 --> 00:56:59,950
Yep.

1753
00:57:00,070 --> 00:57:03,230
This is, and it's provided by whoever's, I

1754
00:57:03,230 --> 00:57:04,930
don't know who this is, but somebody wrote

1755
00:57:04,930 --> 00:57:05,050
it.

1756
00:57:05,210 --> 00:57:10,550
How about the USAGM, the United States of

1757
00:57:10,550 --> 00:57:14,390
America Global Media, which is overseen by the

1758
00:57:14,390 --> 00:57:18,110
Broadcast Board of Governors, who for 2024 had

1759
00:57:18,110 --> 00:57:21,950
a almost $1 billion budget with over 4

1760
00:57:21,950 --> 00:57:23,710
,000 media contracts.

1761
00:57:24,590 --> 00:57:25,030
How about that?

1762
00:57:25,170 --> 00:57:27,830
Remember, this is all happening because of Smith

1763
00:57:27,830 --> 00:57:28,510
-Mundt.

1764
00:57:28,730 --> 00:57:33,290
Once Smith-Mundt was overturned or modernized, meaning

1765
00:57:33,290 --> 00:57:36,610
we can now propagandize the American people, this

1766
00:57:36,610 --> 00:57:37,370
is the result.

1767
00:57:38,070 --> 00:57:38,790
This is the result.

1768
00:57:38,870 --> 00:57:40,130
You get scripted NPR.

1769
00:57:40,670 --> 00:57:42,210
And you get appended.

1770
00:57:42,450 --> 00:57:45,250
How does yesterday's orders from a federal judge

1771
00:57:45,250 --> 00:57:49,470
about the agency affect USAID and its workers?

1772
00:57:49,790 --> 00:57:50,710
Oh, wait, you're right.

1773
00:57:50,970 --> 00:57:53,110
You can even tell he's trying to make

1774
00:57:53,110 --> 00:57:54,730
the script sound conversational.

1775
00:57:55,750 --> 00:57:55,930
Yeah.

1776
00:57:56,090 --> 00:57:57,950
You know how, I mean, like you'll pause

1777
00:57:57,950 --> 00:57:58,210
on a word.

1778
00:57:58,210 --> 00:57:59,090
I know exactly what you mean.

1779
00:57:59,150 --> 00:58:00,190
I think a lot of people do.

1780
00:58:00,230 --> 00:58:02,110
It's hard to explain that from an...

1781
00:58:02,110 --> 00:58:04,910
When you're reading and trying to sound conversational,

1782
00:58:05,030 --> 00:58:07,490
it has a stilted quality that is pretty...

1783
00:58:08,110 --> 00:58:12,250
This is like comparing news interviews with somebody

1784
00:58:12,250 --> 00:58:14,570
who's really distraught and they're having issues and

1785
00:58:14,570 --> 00:58:16,290
they got the microphone stuck in their face

1786
00:58:16,290 --> 00:58:19,330
and somebody in the same situation in a

1787
00:58:19,330 --> 00:58:20,450
movie acting.

1788
00:58:20,830 --> 00:58:20,930
Yes.

1789
00:58:21,650 --> 00:58:22,210
Yes.

1790
00:58:22,750 --> 00:58:22,930
Yeah.

1791
00:58:23,570 --> 00:58:25,570
The acting one is never...

1792
00:58:25,570 --> 00:58:25,690
Yeah.

1793
00:58:25,910 --> 00:58:26,010
Yeah.

1794
00:58:26,590 --> 00:58:27,770
Bad actors.

1795
00:58:28,010 --> 00:58:28,470
Bad actors.

1796
00:58:28,470 --> 00:58:30,910
How does yesterday's orders from a federal judge

1797
00:58:30,910 --> 00:58:35,110
about the agency affect USAID and its workers?

1798
00:58:35,750 --> 00:58:37,770
So last night, a federal judge issued a

1799
00:58:37,770 --> 00:58:40,550
temporary pause on the administration's move to put

1800
00:58:40,550 --> 00:58:42,850
2,200 people on administrative leave.

1801
00:58:43,210 --> 00:58:45,670
Now those are union foreign service officers who

1802
00:58:45,670 --> 00:58:46,470
filed the suit.

1803
00:58:46,630 --> 00:58:49,510
The judge also reinstated 500 people who were

1804
00:58:49,510 --> 00:58:51,970
already put on leave and he paused the

1805
00:58:51,970 --> 00:58:53,950
accelerated return of overseas staff.

1806
00:58:54,030 --> 00:58:55,570
That was supposed to happen this weekend.

1807
00:58:56,010 --> 00:58:57,870
Now this was all pushed back until next

1808
00:58:57,870 --> 00:58:58,290
Friday.

1809
00:58:58,530 --> 00:59:00,490
And in the meantime, there will be a

1810
00:59:00,490 --> 00:59:02,610
hearing next week on the legality of the

1811
00:59:02,610 --> 00:59:05,730
administration's overall moves to dismantle the agency.

1812
00:59:06,010 --> 00:59:08,690
What is the administration focusing on USAID?

1813
00:59:09,790 --> 00:59:12,390
So I think this is why President Trump

1814
00:59:12,390 --> 00:59:14,730
is going to double down today because this

1815
00:59:14,730 --> 00:59:17,190
agency was created by executive order.

1816
00:59:17,650 --> 00:59:20,570
Money was appropriated for the work they do

1817
00:59:20,570 --> 00:59:23,010
but it's still an agency that has been

1818
00:59:23,010 --> 00:59:26,170
brought into existence by an executive order which

1819
00:59:26,170 --> 00:59:28,630
can be removed by executive order as far

1820
00:59:28,630 --> 00:59:30,270
as I'm concerned.

1821
00:59:31,350 --> 00:59:32,950
People may not like it, but I think

1822
00:59:32,950 --> 00:59:33,890
that's just the truth.

1823
00:59:33,890 --> 00:59:36,090
All these agencies, in fact, are under the

1824
00:59:36,090 --> 00:59:37,450
executive department.

1825
00:59:37,630 --> 00:59:37,890
Yes.

1826
00:59:38,010 --> 00:59:40,590
You know, that branch, the executive branch.

1827
00:59:40,870 --> 00:59:40,970
Yes.

1828
00:59:41,430 --> 00:59:44,310
And that means the executive of the executive

1829
00:59:44,310 --> 00:59:46,930
branch, Trump, can pretty much do what he

1830
00:59:46,930 --> 00:59:49,050
wants and everybody like Galloway and these other

1831
00:59:49,050 --> 00:59:50,710
people moaning and groaning about it.

1832
00:59:51,110 --> 00:59:52,270
Oh, separation of powers.

1833
00:59:52,330 --> 00:59:54,110
There's no separation of powers when you're the

1834
00:59:54,110 --> 00:59:55,030
boss of this group.

1835
00:59:57,310 --> 01:00:00,390
In that podcast, Galloway was going on and

1836
01:00:00,390 --> 01:00:04,150
on like, this is only $200 per person

1837
01:00:04,150 --> 01:00:04,630
in America.

1838
01:00:04,790 --> 01:00:07,430
You know, if he takes $35 billion or

1839
01:00:07,430 --> 01:00:10,050
$40 billion and he divides it and he

1840
01:00:10,050 --> 01:00:12,730
says, that's only $200 per person per year.

1841
01:00:12,810 --> 01:00:15,230
If you ask any American, would they want

1842
01:00:15,230 --> 01:00:17,870
to help people in need for $200 a

1843
01:00:17,870 --> 01:00:17,970
year?

1844
01:00:18,010 --> 01:00:18,830
They'd all say yes.

1845
01:00:18,870 --> 01:00:20,550
I'm like, well, if you have a family

1846
01:00:20,550 --> 01:00:22,490
of five, no, Scott, no.

1847
01:00:23,410 --> 01:00:26,150
But for him in his fifth house, yeah,

1848
01:00:26,370 --> 01:00:27,910
sure, $200, who cares?

1849
01:00:27,910 --> 01:00:30,750
I bet $258,000 on Kamala winning.

1850
01:00:30,830 --> 01:00:31,490
He doesn't care.

1851
01:00:32,490 --> 01:00:33,770
These elitist people.

1852
01:00:34,710 --> 01:00:35,270
Elitist.

1853
01:00:35,430 --> 01:00:35,610
Yes.

1854
01:00:35,870 --> 01:00:36,490
We'll get onward.

1855
01:00:36,690 --> 01:00:39,250
With the administration focusing on USAID.

1856
01:00:39,510 --> 01:00:41,970
Well, President Trump is accusing the agency of

1857
01:00:41,970 --> 01:00:43,250
corruption and fraud.

1858
01:00:43,530 --> 01:00:45,290
No evidence has been provided to the public.

1859
01:00:45,610 --> 01:00:45,710
No evidence!

1860
01:00:46,030 --> 01:00:46,370
No evidence!

1861
01:00:46,370 --> 01:00:48,290
And his advisor, Elon Musk, say that they

1862
01:00:48,290 --> 01:00:50,350
want to shrink the federal government and the

1863
01:00:50,350 --> 01:00:50,710
budget.

1864
01:00:51,310 --> 01:00:53,710
Analysts say USAID is an easy target because

1865
01:00:53,710 --> 01:00:54,710
it works overseas.

1866
01:00:55,250 --> 01:00:57,410
Americans are less aware of what it does.

1867
01:00:57,410 --> 01:01:00,070
And analysts say what's happening here is a

1868
01:01:00,070 --> 01:01:03,090
playbook for the administration's plans for other agencies.

1869
01:01:03,630 --> 01:01:07,490
But USAID has typically enjoyed bipartisan support for

1870
01:01:07,490 --> 01:01:08,110
its projects.

1871
01:01:08,250 --> 01:01:10,190
And some Republicans I've talked to are saying

1872
01:01:10,190 --> 01:01:13,130
that there will be cascading consequences from all

1873
01:01:13,130 --> 01:01:13,490
of this.

1874
01:01:13,850 --> 01:01:16,670
Andrew Natsios is a former administrator of USAID

1875
01:01:16,670 --> 01:01:18,370
who served under George W.

1876
01:01:18,470 --> 01:01:18,710
Bush.

1877
01:01:19,050 --> 01:01:21,610
And he said Americans don't realize how influential

1878
01:01:21,610 --> 01:01:22,810
USAID was.

1879
01:01:22,810 --> 01:01:25,450
Its logo, for example, had the American flag

1880
01:01:25,450 --> 01:01:28,530
on aid packages distributed all over the world.

1881
01:01:28,650 --> 01:01:30,850
And it said, from the American people.

1882
01:01:31,010 --> 01:01:31,390
Yeah.

1883
01:01:31,790 --> 01:01:33,290
Another great sign up.

1884
01:01:33,390 --> 01:01:34,390
That's what they always show.

1885
01:01:34,670 --> 01:01:36,370
You saw the pallets going on to the

1886
01:01:36,370 --> 01:01:36,950
C-130.

1887
01:01:37,450 --> 01:01:39,930
Here's your 40 billion at work people from

1888
01:01:39,930 --> 01:01:40,990
the American people.

1889
01:01:44,110 --> 01:01:44,890
We're good people.

1890
01:01:45,170 --> 01:01:46,290
We're good people.

1891
01:01:47,930 --> 01:01:48,410
Yeah.

1892
01:01:48,890 --> 01:01:49,950
That's what we are.

1893
01:01:50,070 --> 01:01:50,210
Yeah.

1894
01:01:50,270 --> 01:01:51,710
And when we look at it, we think

1895
01:01:51,710 --> 01:01:52,430
we're good people.

1896
01:01:52,430 --> 01:01:53,870
Of course, we do.

1897
01:01:54,190 --> 01:01:55,130
We're good people.

1898
01:01:55,410 --> 01:01:56,510
Yes, we're good people.

1899
01:01:57,070 --> 01:02:00,150
Let's go to finish this distraught series on

1900
01:02:00,150 --> 01:02:04,750
this scripted piece on NPR, which I'll complain

1901
01:02:04,750 --> 01:02:05,330
about later.

1902
01:02:05,870 --> 01:02:06,530
Here we go.

1903
01:02:06,770 --> 01:02:09,150
Now, one of the agency's key functions was

1904
01:02:09,150 --> 01:02:10,690
helping with disease control.

1905
01:02:10,850 --> 01:02:13,190
You'll remember the Ebola outbreak in 2014.

1906
01:02:13,190 --> 01:02:15,950
So USAID worked to contain that.

1907
01:02:16,370 --> 01:02:17,290
And they also supported.

1908
01:02:17,510 --> 01:02:17,950
They worked.

1909
01:02:18,070 --> 01:02:19,430
They brought the guy home.

1910
01:02:19,650 --> 01:02:21,550
He got out of the plane in Dallas.

1911
01:02:21,550 --> 01:02:24,030
Was live on TV like it was OJ.

1912
01:02:24,470 --> 01:02:28,610
He hops off the plane, like walks right

1913
01:02:28,610 --> 01:02:29,430
into the terminal.

1914
01:02:29,670 --> 01:02:31,410
And we were all thinking, oh, this guy's

1915
01:02:31,410 --> 01:02:32,630
bleeding out of his butthole.

1916
01:02:32,850 --> 01:02:33,650
This is horrible.

1917
01:02:33,810 --> 01:02:34,470
Do you remember that?

1918
01:02:35,010 --> 01:02:35,470
Oh, yeah.

1919
01:02:36,050 --> 01:02:38,050
Oh, well, we had a nurse who jumped

1920
01:02:38,050 --> 01:02:39,970
on her bike and said, screw you guys

1921
01:02:39,970 --> 01:02:41,850
and took off to contain that.

1922
01:02:41,970 --> 01:02:45,210
And they also supported programs, curbing migration in

1923
01:02:45,210 --> 01:02:47,390
Latin American countries, for example, which is one

1924
01:02:47,390 --> 01:02:50,070
of the this administration's key goal work.

1925
01:02:50,070 --> 01:02:52,170
Where does this leave many of the aid

1926
01:02:52,170 --> 01:02:53,730
groups who worked with USAID?

1927
01:02:54,310 --> 01:02:57,610
You know, Scott, the entire humanitarian aid industry

1928
01:02:57,610 --> 01:02:59,330
is totally shaken by this.

1929
01:02:59,450 --> 01:02:59,790
The industry is shaken.

1930
01:02:59,930 --> 01:03:03,210
USAID partners with NGOs, contractors to do the

1931
01:03:03,210 --> 01:03:05,930
work that Congress allocated money for.

1932
01:03:06,290 --> 01:03:08,290
And since the foreign aid freeze, no one's

1933
01:03:08,290 --> 01:03:10,030
been getting paid by the US, not even

1934
01:03:10,030 --> 01:03:12,310
for work that they already did back in

1935
01:03:12,310 --> 01:03:14,370
December and January before all of this.

1936
01:03:14,390 --> 01:03:16,230
So they're owed millions of dollars.

1937
01:03:16,230 --> 01:03:18,530
Now, this has put everyone in a really

1938
01:03:18,530 --> 01:03:19,230
bad spot.

1939
01:03:19,430 --> 01:03:21,610
Thousands of people have lost their jobs in

1940
01:03:21,610 --> 01:03:22,550
the past couple of weeks.

1941
01:03:22,950 --> 01:03:25,530
And many of these companies, including some of

1942
01:03:25,530 --> 01:03:27,570
the big aid groups, don't know if they

1943
01:03:27,570 --> 01:03:29,850
will survive if the US doesn't fulfill its

1944
01:03:29,850 --> 01:03:30,850
contractual duties.

1945
01:03:31,370 --> 01:03:33,470
So it's really not looking good for aid

1946
01:03:33,470 --> 01:03:35,410
groups right now and for the people around

1947
01:03:35,410 --> 01:03:36,970
the world who depended on their help.

1948
01:03:37,810 --> 01:03:39,290
It's not looking good, people.

1949
01:03:39,810 --> 01:03:40,290
It's not looking good.

1950
01:03:40,290 --> 01:03:42,650
This was a propagandistic piece if I've ever

1951
01:03:42,650 --> 01:03:43,070
heard one.

1952
01:03:43,070 --> 01:03:46,970
Oh, no, was kind of the theme of

1953
01:03:46,970 --> 01:03:47,150
it.

1954
01:03:47,270 --> 01:03:48,470
Oh, no.

1955
01:03:50,750 --> 01:03:51,550
It's bullcrap.

1956
01:03:51,670 --> 01:03:52,750
And this is NPR.

1957
01:03:53,210 --> 01:03:54,790
Do you have more on USAID?

1958
01:03:54,950 --> 01:03:56,630
Because I have some things I want to

1959
01:03:56,630 --> 01:03:57,370
say about this.

1960
01:03:57,670 --> 01:03:59,550
This will take me to my little sidetrack,

1961
01:03:59,610 --> 01:04:00,750
but I can play this.

1962
01:04:01,990 --> 01:04:03,330
And I think then you can go off

1963
01:04:03,330 --> 01:04:03,790
on your...

1964
01:04:03,790 --> 01:04:04,010
Okay.

1965
01:04:04,130 --> 01:04:05,530
Because I have to play this clip.

1966
01:04:05,750 --> 01:04:06,630
This is Capehart.

1967
01:04:08,330 --> 01:04:10,350
Your buddy, your buddy Capehart.

1968
01:04:10,350 --> 01:04:13,510
Yes, the prissy gay scold.

1969
01:04:13,850 --> 01:04:15,090
That's the only way to describe it.

1970
01:04:15,310 --> 01:04:16,670
A prissy gay scold.

1971
01:04:16,950 --> 01:04:18,550
It's a PSC, everybody.

1972
01:04:18,910 --> 01:04:19,650
A PGS.

1973
01:04:19,970 --> 01:04:20,410
PGC.

1974
01:04:20,530 --> 01:04:22,250
I want to play this and I want

1975
01:04:22,250 --> 01:04:25,910
to play two short clips, which is my

1976
01:04:25,910 --> 01:04:26,910
complaint of the day.

1977
01:04:26,950 --> 01:04:27,610
But let's play this.

1978
01:04:27,870 --> 01:04:28,510
This is Capehart.

1979
01:04:28,550 --> 01:04:30,570
They brought a new guy in because Brooks

1980
01:04:30,570 --> 01:04:31,050
was on...

1981
01:04:31,870 --> 01:04:33,390
I don't know what Brooks is doing, but

1982
01:04:33,390 --> 01:04:35,370
they brought some new guy in from the

1983
01:04:35,370 --> 01:04:38,090
American Enterprise Institute, who I thought would maybe

1984
01:04:38,090 --> 01:04:39,270
be a counterpoint.

1985
01:04:40,050 --> 01:04:42,610
But no, no, no, no, no.

1986
01:04:42,690 --> 01:04:46,090
From Elon Musk gaining unprecedented access to sensitive

1987
01:04:46,090 --> 01:04:49,630
government information, to Democrats trying to build what

1988
01:04:49,630 --> 01:04:52,030
they call a bigger and better party, we

1989
01:04:52,030 --> 01:04:54,610
turn tonight to the analysis of Capehart and

1990
01:04:54,610 --> 01:04:55,090
Continetti.

1991
01:04:55,370 --> 01:04:58,930
That's Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart and

1992
01:04:58,930 --> 01:05:01,730
Matthew Continetti with the American Enterprise Institute.

1993
01:05:01,970 --> 01:05:03,610
David Brooks is away this evening.

1994
01:05:03,670 --> 01:05:04,470
It's good to see you both.

1995
01:05:04,730 --> 01:05:05,250
Good to see you.

1996
01:05:05,250 --> 01:05:07,330
So Donald Trump and his allies are making

1997
01:05:07,330 --> 01:05:10,090
quick progress toward their stated goal of the

1998
01:05:10,090 --> 01:05:11,990
deconstruction of the administrative state.

1999
01:05:12,090 --> 01:05:14,610
We've got takeovers and the hollowing out of

2000
01:05:14,610 --> 01:05:18,670
major government agencies offering severance agreements to government

2001
01:05:18,670 --> 01:05:21,310
workers, causing federal grants and loans, which of

2002
01:05:21,310 --> 01:05:22,770
course is now tied up in the courts.

2003
01:05:23,370 --> 01:05:25,950
Jonathan, are the shockwaves being felt across the

2004
01:05:25,950 --> 01:05:29,450
government signs of a super committed new administration

2005
01:05:29,450 --> 01:05:30,930
shaking up the status quo?

2006
01:05:31,470 --> 01:05:34,930
Or are we witnessing the full assaults on

2007
01:05:34,930 --> 01:05:36,570
the limits of executive power?

2008
01:05:37,650 --> 01:05:38,970
Both, Jeff.

2009
01:05:39,170 --> 01:05:39,610
Both.

2010
01:05:39,910 --> 01:05:42,090
Remember, Donald Trump campaigned.

2011
01:05:42,110 --> 01:05:43,930
He told us this is what he was

2012
01:05:43,930 --> 01:05:44,650
going to do.

2013
01:05:45,050 --> 01:05:51,030
Project 2025 is all about doing what is

2014
01:05:51,030 --> 01:05:52,130
happening right now.

2015
01:05:52,510 --> 01:05:55,110
And so they are trying to deconstruct this,

2016
01:05:55,190 --> 01:05:56,730
I think, as Steve Bannon who said, the

2017
01:05:56,730 --> 01:05:57,810
administrative state.

2018
01:05:57,810 --> 01:06:00,810
And they are, as I said last week,

2019
01:06:01,050 --> 01:06:03,810
President Trump and Elon Musk in particular are

2020
01:06:03,810 --> 01:06:07,030
taking a wrecking ball to the federal government

2021
01:06:07,030 --> 01:06:12,170
by sowing, sure, chaos and confusion and fear.

2022
01:06:13,070 --> 01:06:16,050
But he's following through on what he promised

2023
01:06:16,050 --> 01:06:16,630
to do.

2024
01:06:16,770 --> 01:06:17,410
How do you see it, man?

2025
01:06:22,970 --> 01:06:24,010
Oh, boy.

2026
01:06:24,230 --> 01:06:26,250
You spent hours and it's appreciated.

2027
01:06:26,610 --> 01:06:27,410
It's appreciated.

2028
01:06:27,810 --> 01:06:30,050
So the crap that they don't have any

2029
01:06:30,050 --> 01:06:32,890
counterpoints on this PBS thing, and which brings

2030
01:06:32,890 --> 01:06:34,530
me to two short clips I want to

2031
01:06:34,530 --> 01:06:34,910
play.

2032
01:06:35,630 --> 01:06:37,890
This is because this is a complaint of

2033
01:06:37,890 --> 01:06:38,170
mine.

2034
01:06:38,630 --> 01:06:40,370
It was brought up in a previous show

2035
01:06:40,370 --> 01:06:43,970
about how NPR is doing, literally doing, that

2036
01:06:43,970 --> 01:06:45,570
was PBS, but same thing.

2037
01:06:45,710 --> 01:06:47,350
NPR is doing advertising.

2038
01:06:48,150 --> 01:06:50,550
I want to play two short clips which

2039
01:06:50,550 --> 01:06:55,090
are call to action advertisements that played back

2040
01:06:55,090 --> 01:06:55,870
to back.

2041
01:06:55,870 --> 01:06:58,810
These played, one played, and then the other

2042
01:06:58,810 --> 01:06:59,150
played.

2043
01:06:59,230 --> 01:06:59,950
It's unbelievable.

2044
01:07:00,190 --> 01:07:04,270
This is the NPR advert, Cap One.

2045
01:07:04,810 --> 01:07:06,590

2053
01:07:19,670 --> 01:07:22,470
Now, was this on the radio or was

2054
01:07:22,470 --> 01:07:23,270
this on the podcast?

2055
01:07:23,850 --> 01:07:27,010
This was on the radio stream.

2056
01:07:28,250 --> 01:07:30,470
Okay, so it was a radio station.

2057
01:07:31,570 --> 01:07:33,590
Yeah, I think this was KQED.

2058
01:07:33,970 --> 01:07:36,390
But what's interesting is because whoever put the

2059
01:07:36,390 --> 01:07:40,150
stream together, the next thing on the stream

2060
01:07:40,150 --> 01:07:42,590
was this ad, which is another ad for

2061
01:07:42,590 --> 01:07:44,870

2062
01:07:45,210 --> 01:07:47,650

Details at CapitalOne.com.

2070
01:08:02,290 --> 01:08:07,390
From a legal standpoint, the FCC and a

2071
01:08:07,390 --> 01:08:09,930
lot of the certainly the music rights organizations

2072
01:08:09,930 --> 01:08:13,890
have deemed an audio stream to be equal

2073
01:08:13,890 --> 01:08:16,750
to that of an over-the-air radio

2074
01:08:16,750 --> 01:08:17,189
signal.

2075
01:08:17,189 --> 01:08:19,630
And I'm bringing that up in regards to

2076
01:08:19,630 --> 01:08:22,550
if you play a record on your radio

2077
01:08:22,550 --> 01:08:23,670
station, you have a stream.

2078
01:08:23,750 --> 01:08:24,870
You don't have to pay double.

2079
01:08:25,490 --> 01:08:27,490
And so it's considered to be the radio,

2080
01:08:27,950 --> 01:08:30,890
meaning that under the same rules that they

2081
01:08:30,890 --> 01:08:33,649
cannot do a call to action, this would

2082
01:08:33,649 --> 01:08:34,410
be a violation.

2083
01:08:35,109 --> 01:08:36,330
That's this is my.

2084
01:08:36,890 --> 01:08:40,130
I agree with you 100 something.

2085
01:08:42,130 --> 01:08:43,729
But I will say this.

2086
01:08:43,810 --> 01:08:45,310
This was back to back.

2087
01:08:46,069 --> 01:08:47,870
Yeah, that's just bad programming.

2088
01:08:48,210 --> 01:08:50,170
These people should not be getting government funding.

2089
01:08:50,510 --> 01:08:51,290
Well, they won't be.

2090
01:08:51,430 --> 01:08:52,410
That's all going to end.

2091
01:08:54,090 --> 01:08:57,470
OK, so in the season of reveal, I'm

2092
01:08:57,470 --> 01:08:59,950
trying to figure out what is you can't

2093
01:08:59,950 --> 01:09:00,550
deny it anymore.

2094
01:09:00,930 --> 01:09:02,010
I need a jingle, people.

2095
01:09:02,130 --> 01:09:03,569
I need a season of reveal jingle.

2096
01:09:04,370 --> 01:09:05,250
Season of reveal.

2097
01:09:05,590 --> 01:09:06,490
Season of reveal.

2098
01:09:07,350 --> 01:09:09,229
So Leave it to Beaver comes out and

2099
01:09:09,229 --> 01:09:13,649
she's talking to the press and she and

2100
01:09:13,649 --> 01:09:16,270
obviously the president is aware of what she's

2101
01:09:16,270 --> 01:09:17,670
communicating to the world.

2102
01:09:18,410 --> 01:09:21,229
And when it comes to shutting down USAID,

2103
01:09:21,870 --> 01:09:24,390
here's her laundry list of you played a

2104
01:09:24,390 --> 01:09:26,370
little bit of those in the NPR coverage.

2105
01:09:26,649 --> 01:09:28,729
Here's her laundry list of some of the

2106
01:09:28,729 --> 01:09:32,229
things that USAID was funding through USAID over

2107
01:09:32,229 --> 01:09:33,130
the past several years.

2108
01:09:33,270 --> 01:09:35,569
These are some of the insane priorities that

2109
01:09:35,569 --> 01:09:38,210
that organization has been spending money on, $1

2110
01:09:38,210 --> 01:09:42,850
.5 million to advance DEI in Serbia's workplaces,

2111
01:09:43,350 --> 01:09:45,710
$70,000 for a production of a DEI

2112
01:09:45,710 --> 01:09:49,830
musical in Ireland, $47,000 for a transgender

2113
01:09:49,830 --> 01:09:53,790
opera in Colombia, $32,000 for a transgender

2114
01:09:53,790 --> 01:09:55,150
comic book in Peru.

2115
01:09:55,650 --> 01:09:57,110
I don't know about you, but as an

2116
01:09:57,110 --> 01:09:59,030
American taxpayer, I don't want my dollars going

2117
01:09:59,030 --> 01:09:59,910
towards this crap.

2118
01:10:00,010 --> 01:10:01,330
And I know the American people don't either.

2119
01:10:01,430 --> 01:10:03,610
And that's exactly what Elon Musk has been

2120
01:10:03,610 --> 01:10:04,910
tasked by President Trump to do.

2121
01:10:04,910 --> 01:10:07,770
So I'm thinking, wait a minute, what is

2122
01:10:07,770 --> 01:10:08,090
trying?

2123
01:10:08,190 --> 01:10:09,730
What are they trying to communicate here?

2124
01:10:10,010 --> 01:10:11,210
Are they trying to communicate?

2125
01:10:11,730 --> 01:10:14,250
And part of the sigh up they're putting

2126
01:10:14,250 --> 01:10:17,550
on the American people or marketing, call it

2127
01:10:17,550 --> 01:10:19,470
whatever you want, it's the same thing, is

2128
01:10:19,470 --> 01:10:22,590
let's all get outraged by these ideological things.

2129
01:10:23,170 --> 01:10:23,290
Yeah.

2130
01:10:23,530 --> 01:10:26,090
And then it starts to dawn on me,

2131
01:10:26,230 --> 01:10:27,590
these are not ideological.

2132
01:10:27,930 --> 01:10:29,070
And it hit me.

2133
01:10:29,490 --> 01:10:30,550
And I'll just play a little bit of

2134
01:10:30,550 --> 01:10:32,330
this report and I'll explain why I'll stop

2135
01:10:32,330 --> 01:10:33,210
it and I'll explain why.

2136
01:10:33,210 --> 01:10:36,650
This is a protest against, in Germany, against

2137
01:10:36,650 --> 01:10:37,490
the AFD.

2138
01:11:03,410 --> 01:11:06,630
Alternative for Germany or AFD party in government.

2139
01:11:06,850 --> 01:11:09,090
Now, notice the words of change have gone

2140
01:11:09,090 --> 01:11:11,370
from far right to extreme right.

2141
01:11:11,830 --> 01:11:14,430
There are hundreds of thousands of people protesting.

2142
01:11:14,750 --> 01:11:17,410
From what I understand from my German friends,

2143
01:11:17,770 --> 01:11:19,770
they all hate the immigrant situation.

2144
01:11:20,270 --> 01:11:22,390
They all love the fact that this guy

2145
01:11:22,390 --> 01:11:24,350
who, you know, he said, well, I'll reach

2146
01:11:24,350 --> 01:11:26,170
out a little bit to AFD and at

2147
01:11:26,170 --> 01:11:29,870
least we'll approve this reduction of immigrant inflow.

2148
01:11:29,950 --> 01:11:31,710
But yet there are hundreds of thousands of

2149
01:11:31,710 --> 01:11:32,610
people protesting.

2150
01:11:32,610 --> 01:11:35,030
It's this protester and we don't have video,

2151
01:11:35,170 --> 01:11:36,870
but I'll tell you what this protester was.

2152
01:11:37,070 --> 01:11:39,970
This is a dude in a blonde wig

2153
01:11:39,970 --> 01:11:41,670
with blue eyeshadow.

2154
01:11:42,150 --> 01:11:45,070
Alternative for Germany or AFD party in government.

2155
01:11:47,470 --> 01:11:49,610
I'm really worried about things and I simply

2156
01:11:49,610 --> 01:11:51,390
want to do something to stand up for

2157
01:11:51,390 --> 01:11:54,510
a colorful coexistence that people can live together,

2158
01:11:54,730 --> 01:11:56,670
be happy with each other, that we don't

2159
01:11:56,670 --> 01:11:59,730
continue to be negative and against minorities, but

2160
01:11:59,730 --> 01:12:01,990
instead appreciate there is a diverse society and

2161
01:12:01,990 --> 01:12:03,410
that we can also benefit from it.

2162
01:12:04,250 --> 01:12:07,150
So he's saying, hey, I don't understand why

2163
01:12:07,150 --> 01:12:08,670
we just can't all get along.

2164
01:12:08,790 --> 01:12:09,590
People are different.

2165
01:12:09,690 --> 01:12:10,770
We need diversity.

2166
01:12:11,610 --> 01:12:14,370
He's talking about himself because he's a freak

2167
01:12:14,370 --> 01:12:14,690
show.

2168
01:12:14,890 --> 01:12:16,870
And he's standing there in this blue.

2169
01:12:16,990 --> 01:12:18,630
I mean, it's a huge dude in a

2170
01:12:18,630 --> 01:12:20,490
blonde, curly wig, kind of a cute wig,

2171
01:12:20,530 --> 01:12:20,870
actually.

2172
01:12:21,110 --> 01:12:22,510
And with blue eyeshadow.

2173
01:12:22,830 --> 01:12:24,510
I'm like, hold on a second.

2174
01:12:25,530 --> 01:12:27,750
What USAID is doing, if you listen to

2175
01:12:27,750 --> 01:12:30,670
the countries, Colombia, you know, all these different

2176
01:12:30,670 --> 01:12:31,350
Uganda.

2177
01:12:32,010 --> 01:12:35,730
This is a tool that USAID has used

2178
01:12:35,730 --> 01:12:37,790
to garner support.

2179
01:12:38,550 --> 01:12:41,250
You see, when you talk about children, because

2180
01:12:41,250 --> 01:12:43,810
what is the whole LGBTQ thing about?

2181
01:12:44,450 --> 01:12:46,210
The T is what was added on.

2182
01:12:46,550 --> 01:12:47,950
The T is about transgender.

2183
01:12:48,570 --> 01:12:50,710
And we've somehow and I'll get to America

2184
01:12:50,710 --> 01:12:52,110
in a moment because this has been done

2185
01:12:52,110 --> 01:12:52,990
to our own people.

2186
01:12:53,750 --> 01:12:57,430
The T part is, is what we've told

2187
01:12:57,430 --> 01:13:01,070
everybody is you don't transition these children, then

2188
01:13:01,070 --> 01:13:02,870
they're going to kill themselves.

2189
01:13:03,550 --> 01:13:07,010
Children is a very powerful tool in psychological

2190
01:13:07,010 --> 01:13:07,590
warfare.

2191
01:13:12,150 --> 01:13:14,990
So when you're told that you have to

2192
01:13:14,990 --> 01:13:20,170
let children transition, people are compassionate.

2193
01:13:20,850 --> 01:13:22,790
The same goes for America.

2194
01:13:22,790 --> 01:13:24,110
We're compassionate people.

2195
01:13:24,250 --> 01:13:26,210
We don't want children to kill themselves.

2196
01:13:26,390 --> 01:13:28,850
We've been told through research that this is,

2197
01:13:28,970 --> 01:13:30,990
you know, we really have to let these

2198
01:13:30,990 --> 01:13:32,270
kids transition.

2199
01:13:32,430 --> 01:13:35,830
It's gotten so good, the communication that, you

2200
01:13:35,830 --> 01:13:38,370
know, people are harming their kids because they

2201
01:13:38,370 --> 01:13:39,830
think that their kids are trans.

2202
01:13:40,310 --> 01:13:43,490
They've been using this overseas to garner groups,

2203
01:13:44,090 --> 01:13:46,690
multiple groups who are on the edge.

2204
01:13:46,850 --> 01:13:49,790
They bought into the trans Maoism, the transgender

2205
01:13:49,790 --> 01:13:50,890
meme.

2206
01:13:50,890 --> 01:13:52,970
They've added Q on there.

2207
01:13:53,070 --> 01:13:56,010
So now if you're queer, like, I just

2208
01:13:56,010 --> 01:13:56,930
don't fit in.

2209
01:13:57,090 --> 01:13:58,750
I don't know what I really am, where

2210
01:13:58,750 --> 01:13:59,070
I am.

2211
01:13:59,110 --> 01:13:59,770
But hey, wait a minute.

2212
01:14:00,010 --> 01:14:01,550
There's this group of people over here who

2213
01:14:01,550 --> 01:14:02,230
are compassionate.

2214
01:14:02,330 --> 01:14:04,410
They care about the trans children.

2215
01:14:04,550 --> 01:14:06,150
They don't want them to disappear.

2216
01:14:06,550 --> 01:14:08,450
So then you can garner a whole bunch

2217
01:14:08,450 --> 01:14:09,230
of fringe groups.

2218
01:14:09,250 --> 01:14:12,090
You can get the trans, the queer, the

2219
01:14:12,090 --> 01:14:16,430
questioning, the misfits, people with other mental disorders.

2220
01:14:16,430 --> 01:14:17,750
You can get the anarchists.

2221
01:14:17,750 --> 01:14:19,710
And that way you can get 100,000

2222
01:14:19,710 --> 01:14:20,850
people to protest.

2223
01:14:21,170 --> 01:14:22,970
It used to be Black Lives Matter.

2224
01:14:23,590 --> 01:14:24,830
And that worked quite well.

2225
01:14:24,910 --> 01:14:27,050
We had one last hurrah with Black Lives

2226
01:14:27,050 --> 01:14:27,490
Matters.

2227
01:14:27,490 --> 01:14:29,730
And it turned out that was so manufactured,

2228
01:14:29,850 --> 01:14:30,830
everyone saw through it.

2229
01:14:31,190 --> 01:14:34,390
We then saw in Los Angeles, literally the

2230
01:14:34,390 --> 01:14:36,270
culmination of Black Lives Matters.

2231
01:14:36,270 --> 01:14:37,770
And all of a sudden the stage switch,

2232
01:14:38,030 --> 01:14:39,710
there was the rainbow flag and it was

2233
01:14:39,710 --> 01:14:41,370
trans lives matters.

2234
01:14:42,270 --> 01:14:45,630
So they built in this DEI thing.

2235
01:14:45,630 --> 01:14:48,730
By the way, USAID was doing a lot

2236
01:14:48,730 --> 01:14:53,210
of exploration on just how far they could

2237
01:14:53,210 --> 01:14:55,970
take this trans issue as we have this

2238
01:14:55,970 --> 01:14:59,030
testimony from Goodman, I think.

2239
01:14:59,890 --> 01:15:02,070
I do have one interjection.

2240
01:15:02,930 --> 01:15:05,250
This to me, what you're doing, and I

2241
01:15:05,250 --> 01:15:08,870
agree with this, USAID is somehow behind all

2242
01:15:08,870 --> 01:15:09,090
this.

2243
01:15:09,530 --> 01:15:11,890
This accounts for the fact, because I question

2244
01:15:11,890 --> 01:15:13,130
people all the time.

2245
01:15:13,130 --> 01:15:15,010
We have a lot of international listeners.

2246
01:15:15,450 --> 01:15:20,830
And yes, drag queen story hour is all

2247
01:15:20,830 --> 01:15:22,250
around the globe.

2248
01:15:22,670 --> 01:15:22,850
Everywhere.

2249
01:15:23,670 --> 01:15:23,910
Why?

2250
01:15:24,670 --> 01:15:26,950
Because they felt they were funded.

2251
01:15:27,790 --> 01:15:31,030
So you get a transgender dance party.

2252
01:15:31,530 --> 01:15:33,350
Hey, everybody wants to go dance with drag

2253
01:15:33,350 --> 01:15:33,750
queens.

2254
01:15:33,830 --> 01:15:34,370
That's fine.

2255
01:15:34,430 --> 01:15:35,090
We'll have a good time.

2256
01:15:35,430 --> 01:15:36,210
And you multiply.

2257
01:15:36,410 --> 01:15:39,030
And again, it all comes down to compassion

2258
01:15:39,030 --> 01:15:41,030
and empathy of the human spirit.

2259
01:15:41,030 --> 01:15:44,990
But they have all been used to become

2260
01:15:44,990 --> 01:15:47,070
part of, you know, it's easy to throw

2261
01:15:47,070 --> 01:15:47,970
Palestine in.

2262
01:15:48,050 --> 01:15:50,730
Oh, there's another group that's being oppressed.

2263
01:15:50,950 --> 01:15:53,250
Oh, well, just so you can garner all

2264
01:15:53,250 --> 01:15:53,930
of the support.

2265
01:15:54,190 --> 01:15:56,610
And they've been using it economic hitman style

2266
01:15:56,610 --> 01:15:59,650
around the world and in our own country.

2267
01:15:59,650 --> 01:16:01,210
And that's where they made the mistake.

2268
01:16:01,390 --> 01:16:03,230
Just a quick side thing here.

2269
01:16:03,230 --> 01:16:08,090
USAID spent 241 million dollars on testing out

2270
01:16:08,090 --> 01:16:11,610
the trans transitioning on mice.

2271
01:16:11,890 --> 01:16:14,970
Can you describe what exactly the American people's

2272
01:16:14,970 --> 01:16:19,290
taxpayer dollars were spent on regarding transgender animal

2273
01:16:19,290 --> 01:16:19,690
testing?

2274
01:16:20,490 --> 01:16:22,950
Yeah, in a lot of these cases, they're

2275
01:16:22,950 --> 01:16:26,270
involved in mice, rats, monkeys who are being

2276
01:16:26,990 --> 01:16:32,270
surgically mutilated and subjected to hormone therapies to

2277
01:16:32,270 --> 01:16:35,270
mimic female to male or male to female

2278
01:16:35,270 --> 01:16:41,110
gender transitions, gender affirming hormone therapies, and then

2279
01:16:41,110 --> 01:16:45,810
looking at the biological, psychological and physiological effects

2280
01:16:45,810 --> 01:16:48,490
of the gender transitions, looking at the effects

2281
01:16:48,490 --> 01:16:52,970
of taking vaccines after you've transitioned these animals

2282
01:16:52,970 --> 01:16:54,750
from male to female or female to male,

2283
01:16:54,970 --> 01:16:57,990
looking at the size of their genitals changing

2284
01:16:57,990 --> 01:17:01,470
after you've put them on estrogen or testosterone

2285
01:17:01,470 --> 01:17:04,250
therapies to transition them.

2286
01:17:05,370 --> 01:17:08,130
And in the case that the chairwoman, the

2287
01:17:08,130 --> 01:17:09,950
example the chairwoman gave, there was a 1

2288
01:17:09,950 --> 01:17:14,350
.1 million dollar grant to give female lab

2289
01:17:14,350 --> 01:17:18,990
rats testosterone to mimic transgender male humans and

2290
01:17:18,990 --> 01:17:22,910
then overdose them with this party drug to

2291
01:17:22,910 --> 01:17:26,230
see if animals who were taking test female

2292
01:17:26,230 --> 01:17:29,470
animals taking testosterone were more likely to overdose

2293
01:17:29,470 --> 01:17:32,130
on the sex party drug than animals who

2294
01:17:32,130 --> 01:17:33,370
are not taking testosterone.

2295
01:17:33,950 --> 01:17:35,730
So believe me, when you're putting a quarter

2296
01:17:35,730 --> 01:17:37,450
of a billion dollars into this type of

2297
01:17:37,450 --> 01:17:38,950
research, you're doing it for a reason.

2298
01:17:39,090 --> 01:17:41,490
You want to organize trans dance parties.

2299
01:17:41,590 --> 01:17:43,470
You're handing out party drugs.

2300
01:17:43,790 --> 01:17:44,790
Make sure you don't kill them.

2301
01:17:44,830 --> 01:17:46,530
We need them to protest the next day.

2302
01:17:46,530 --> 01:17:49,550
The problem is where they went wrong is

2303
01:17:49,550 --> 01:17:54,330
DEI and DEI diversity equity inclusion was completely

2304
01:17:54,330 --> 01:17:58,710
targeted at a combination of black and trans

2305
01:17:58,710 --> 01:17:59,290
in America.

2306
01:17:59,470 --> 01:18:01,830
But DEI could be used for any kind

2307
01:18:01,830 --> 01:18:03,370
of ethnic group around the world.

2308
01:18:03,750 --> 01:18:06,270
And what happened is the financial community jumped

2309
01:18:06,270 --> 01:18:08,030
in and said, yeah, you know, we're not

2310
01:18:08,030 --> 01:18:10,470
we're going to make you non-investable unless

2311
01:18:10,470 --> 01:18:13,790
unless you have DEI and you have all

2312
01:18:13,790 --> 01:18:16,170
of the and you're doing the right way

2313
01:18:16,170 --> 01:18:18,970
with your with your social governance score, etc.

2314
01:18:19,150 --> 01:18:20,890
And they went too far.

2315
01:18:21,010 --> 01:18:22,390
All the grifters came in.

2316
01:18:22,710 --> 01:18:25,450
Everybody started making millions of dollars writing books,

2317
01:18:25,570 --> 01:18:26,530
Robert DeAngelo.

2318
01:18:26,850 --> 01:18:29,030
And they pushed it so far that a

2319
01:18:29,030 --> 01:18:32,270
certain part, a certain point in America and

2320
01:18:32,270 --> 01:18:33,850
I think everywhere in the world, people went,

2321
01:18:33,950 --> 01:18:34,630
hold on a second.

2322
01:18:35,050 --> 01:18:36,390
Now I'm a white guy.

2323
01:18:36,450 --> 01:18:37,570
I'm a white woman.

2324
01:18:38,230 --> 01:18:38,970
I'm straight.

2325
01:18:39,110 --> 01:18:41,070
I'm being discriminated against.

2326
01:18:41,350 --> 01:18:43,770
And that's they pushed it too far.

2327
01:18:43,770 --> 01:18:45,930
And this is what this is why your

2328
01:18:45,930 --> 01:18:49,230
observation of the Democrat Party going all in,

2329
01:18:49,290 --> 01:18:50,870
they're going to die on the Trans Hill

2330
01:18:50,870 --> 01:18:52,470
because that's all they know.

2331
01:18:52,470 --> 01:18:54,350
They have no alternative strategy.

2332
01:18:54,470 --> 01:18:57,930
Their strategy was always mobilize people because we're

2333
01:18:57,930 --> 01:19:00,370
compassionate about the TE and LGBTQ.

2334
01:19:01,070 --> 01:19:03,410
And if you're Q, you can just jump

2335
01:19:03,410 --> 01:19:03,890
on board.

2336
01:19:03,970 --> 01:19:05,050
Anybody can be Q.

2337
01:19:05,330 --> 01:19:07,190
This is the only strategy they had.

2338
01:19:07,250 --> 01:19:09,650
And we have been doing this around the

2339
01:19:09,650 --> 01:19:10,110
world.

2340
01:19:10,110 --> 01:19:12,570
And I think that's why Trump is trying

2341
01:19:12,570 --> 01:19:13,730
to communicate this.

2342
01:19:14,290 --> 01:19:16,610
And honestly, we need to repent at a

2343
01:19:16,610 --> 01:19:19,430
certain point and apologize to the world for

2344
01:19:19,430 --> 01:19:21,650
the mess we've made of it after we

2345
01:19:21,650 --> 01:19:24,050
come to terms in America of how many

2346
01:19:24,050 --> 01:19:27,570
children we have harmed with this psychological operation

2347
01:19:27,570 --> 01:19:31,850
made possible by the overturn of Smith-Mundt.

2348
01:19:32,150 --> 01:19:36,330
So the American intelligence agencies, which includes the

2349
01:19:36,330 --> 01:19:39,670
spooks at USAID, could go ahead and propagandize

2350
01:19:39,670 --> 01:19:40,010
everybody.

2351
01:19:40,330 --> 01:19:43,270
It is a disaster that has taken place.

2352
01:19:43,510 --> 01:19:44,870
And it's been going on as far as

2353
01:19:44,870 --> 01:19:46,730
I can tell since Nixon, probably.

2354
01:19:48,490 --> 01:19:52,670
And finally, the spell has been broken and

2355
01:19:52,670 --> 01:19:53,850
people are saying no.

2356
01:19:54,430 --> 01:19:56,510
That's why President Trump comes in and says,

2357
01:19:56,650 --> 01:19:58,750
no, no more dudes in women's sports.

2358
01:19:58,870 --> 01:20:00,270
We're getting rid of that.

2359
01:20:00,430 --> 01:20:04,150
No government funding for mice or children or

2360
01:20:04,150 --> 01:20:04,670
otherwise.

2361
01:20:04,670 --> 01:20:07,770
And now companies are starting to figure out

2362
01:20:07,770 --> 01:20:09,690
that this was a bad idea.

2363
01:20:09,830 --> 01:20:10,890
Hey, good morning.

2364
01:20:11,150 --> 01:20:13,630
So as you know, we've been seeing some

2365
01:20:13,630 --> 01:20:16,190
big companies announcing for months that they're ending

2366
01:20:16,190 --> 01:20:18,350
or changing their DEI programs.

2367
01:20:18,650 --> 01:20:21,090
They include Walmart, Target, Amazon.

2368
01:20:21,750 --> 01:20:24,330
And just this week, Google told employees that

2369
01:20:24,330 --> 01:20:27,210
it's ending its hiring targets for underrepresented workers.

2370
01:20:27,730 --> 01:20:30,390
But what I discovered this week is that

2371
01:20:30,390 --> 01:20:32,990
many more big companies are backing away from

2372
01:20:32,990 --> 01:20:36,110
the language of DEI without making a big

2373
01:20:36,110 --> 01:20:36,590
announcement.

2374
01:20:37,310 --> 01:20:39,450
I went digging into the new annual reports

2375
01:20:39,450 --> 01:20:41,890
that companies have been publishing for their investors.

2376
01:20:42,670 --> 01:20:44,010
And I compared them with what they were

2377
01:20:44,010 --> 01:20:45,010
saying a year ago.

2378
01:20:45,310 --> 01:20:47,070
And I found that this year, at least

2379
01:20:47,070 --> 01:20:49,750
a dozen big companies have all deleted or

2380
01:20:49,750 --> 01:20:52,090
softened the language they use to talk about

2381
01:20:52,090 --> 01:20:52,610
diversity.

2382
01:20:53,210 --> 01:20:57,110
These companies include GM, Intel, Disney, Pepsi, and

2383
01:20:57,110 --> 01:20:57,470
Chipotle.

2384
01:20:57,970 --> 01:20:59,910
Now, some of these companies wouldn't talk about

2385
01:20:59,910 --> 01:21:00,930
these changes with me.

2386
01:21:00,930 --> 01:21:02,770
So we don't know for sure why they've

2387
01:21:02,770 --> 01:21:03,230
done this.

2388
01:21:03,310 --> 01:21:05,230
We just know that they've stopped talking about

2389
01:21:05,230 --> 01:21:06,250
DEI in public.

2390
01:21:06,470 --> 01:21:08,410
But some of the companies did give me

2391
01:21:08,410 --> 01:21:09,070
some clues.

2392
01:21:09,810 --> 01:21:14,270
So thank God that this is stopped.

2393
01:21:15,110 --> 01:21:18,330
OK, I have to stop you for a

2394
01:21:18,330 --> 01:21:18,510
second.

2395
01:21:18,730 --> 01:21:18,890
Yeah.

2396
01:21:19,770 --> 01:21:21,190
It hasn't stopped.

2397
01:21:21,830 --> 01:21:22,770
Well, no, it hasn't.

2398
01:21:23,050 --> 01:21:23,670
It's paused.

2399
01:21:23,790 --> 01:21:24,330
It's paused.

2400
01:21:24,410 --> 01:21:26,070
Yes, it's paused.

2401
01:21:26,170 --> 01:21:28,530
And I have to look at this.

2402
01:21:28,810 --> 01:21:29,770
Take what you say.

2403
01:21:29,770 --> 01:21:31,010
I think everything you said is great.

2404
01:21:31,370 --> 01:21:31,570
Thank you.

2405
01:21:32,150 --> 01:21:34,510
But the meta part of it, this is

2406
01:21:34,510 --> 01:21:36,510
where I'll come in with this.

2407
01:21:37,470 --> 01:21:40,770
Do you think it's possible that when you

2408
01:21:40,770 --> 01:21:43,030
say they overdid it, do you think it's

2409
01:21:43,030 --> 01:21:45,210
possible that it wasn't even the same group?

2410
01:21:45,290 --> 01:21:46,490
That was just a coincidence?

2411
01:21:46,870 --> 01:21:47,470
Very possible.

2412
01:21:47,590 --> 01:21:48,510
That's why I said Wall Street.

2413
01:21:48,570 --> 01:21:50,790
Wall Street grabbed this and like, oh, this

2414
01:21:50,790 --> 01:21:51,250
is this.

2415
01:21:51,550 --> 01:21:52,950
I think that they believed it.

2416
01:21:53,210 --> 01:21:56,590
I think the company CEOs, the board members,

2417
01:21:56,710 --> 01:21:59,590
the shareholders all said, yeah, man, like the

2418
01:21:59,590 --> 01:22:00,530
children are dying.

2419
01:22:00,670 --> 01:22:04,450
They're committing suicide because they don't, you know,

2420
01:22:04,570 --> 01:22:04,770
they.

2421
01:22:05,050 --> 01:22:07,970
See, the thing is, I see as the

2422
01:22:07,970 --> 01:22:09,750
problem I have is that I see the

2423
01:22:09,750 --> 01:22:15,550
trans drag queen story hour and the trans

2424
01:22:15,550 --> 01:22:18,350
Maoism and all that on one track.

2425
01:22:18,710 --> 01:22:20,110
And I see the DEI.

2426
01:22:20,210 --> 01:22:22,290
I see the connection because the DEI would

2427
01:22:22,290 --> 01:22:23,030
include that.

2428
01:22:23,150 --> 01:22:24,970
But I see the DEI is on a

2429
01:22:24,970 --> 01:22:25,570
second track.

2430
01:22:25,630 --> 01:22:27,390
And I'm wondering if it was the same

2431
01:22:27,390 --> 01:22:28,790
schemers.

2432
01:22:28,790 --> 01:22:31,710
Could have been a different group doing this.

2433
01:22:31,930 --> 01:22:33,550
I thought that they may be competitive.

2434
01:22:33,830 --> 01:22:36,430
They may be competitive schemes at work.

2435
01:22:36,550 --> 01:22:39,250
And because of that, it destroyed itself.

2436
01:22:41,030 --> 01:22:43,070
Whatever happened, the operation.

2437
01:22:43,270 --> 01:22:45,090
I mean, they should have been throwing 33s

2438
01:22:45,090 --> 01:22:45,430
everywhere.

2439
01:22:45,930 --> 01:22:47,650
The operation went out of control.

2440
01:22:48,310 --> 01:22:50,490
I think the operation is I agree with

2441
01:22:50,490 --> 01:22:50,650
that.

2442
01:22:50,690 --> 01:22:51,970
I think this is out of control.

2443
01:22:52,710 --> 01:22:54,150
I don't know what they can do to

2444
01:22:54,150 --> 01:22:57,630
salvage the direction they pushed everybody.

2445
01:22:57,630 --> 01:22:59,590
And I know I agree the Democrat Party

2446
01:22:59,590 --> 01:23:00,830
has completely screwed itself.

2447
01:23:01,010 --> 01:23:02,810
And you notice that when you hear from

2448
01:23:02,810 --> 01:23:07,450
Rahm Emanuel and you hear from what's his

2449
01:23:07,450 --> 01:23:07,710
name?

2450
01:23:07,830 --> 01:23:09,670
The guy looks like wimpy.

2451
01:23:09,990 --> 01:23:11,570
Give me the hamburger guy.

2452
01:23:13,530 --> 01:23:15,130
You've puzzled me with that one.

2453
01:23:15,350 --> 01:23:16,890
This guy is an Obama guy.

2454
01:23:17,010 --> 01:23:17,690
He's the Obama.

2455
01:23:18,310 --> 01:23:19,850
The brains behind Obama.

2456
01:23:20,210 --> 01:23:24,030
Oh, from Chicago.

2457
01:23:24,190 --> 01:23:24,630
That guy.

2458
01:23:25,150 --> 01:23:25,610
Yeah.

2459
01:23:25,610 --> 01:23:25,810
Yeah.

2460
01:23:26,690 --> 01:23:27,690
It'll come to me.

2461
01:23:27,870 --> 01:23:28,330
It'll come to me.

2462
01:23:28,330 --> 01:23:28,730
Yeah, it will.

2463
01:23:28,830 --> 01:23:29,490
It'll come to me, too.

2464
01:23:29,990 --> 01:23:31,690
But he always reminds you of wimpy and

2465
01:23:31,690 --> 01:23:33,050
the hamburger guy.

2466
01:23:34,530 --> 01:23:36,630
So the two of them have seen the

2467
01:23:36,630 --> 01:23:38,910
light on this, but nobody's listening to them.

2468
01:23:39,090 --> 01:23:40,750
Carville to a lesser extent, but nobody cares

2469
01:23:40,750 --> 01:23:41,310
what he has to say.

2470
01:23:41,530 --> 01:23:41,870
Axelrod.

2471
01:23:42,190 --> 01:23:42,790
Actually, yeah.

2472
01:23:43,910 --> 01:23:44,450
Axelrod, yes.

2473
01:23:44,450 --> 01:23:45,550
Thank you, NetNet.

2474
01:23:45,690 --> 01:23:45,950
Oh, no.

2475
01:23:46,010 --> 01:23:47,290
Who said it's a man person?

2476
01:23:47,450 --> 01:23:48,490
Man person had it first.

2477
01:23:48,670 --> 01:23:48,770
All right.

2478
01:23:48,770 --> 01:23:49,450
Good for man person.

2479
01:23:49,930 --> 01:23:51,830
So these guys have noticed this and they've

2480
01:23:51,830 --> 01:23:52,330
talked about it.

2481
01:23:52,330 --> 01:23:55,090
Everyone's ignoring him, totally ignoring him.

2482
01:23:55,170 --> 01:23:58,550
And they're going on with the Prissy scold,

2483
01:23:58,910 --> 01:23:59,850
gay scold.

2484
01:24:00,070 --> 01:24:03,770
Instead, it's misogyny that causes the election.

2485
01:24:03,990 --> 01:24:05,790
It's racism that causes the election.

2486
01:24:06,130 --> 01:24:08,510
They will not give in to any other

2487
01:24:08,510 --> 01:24:09,030
thinking.

2488
01:24:09,750 --> 01:24:12,370
And trans is still on track in the

2489
01:24:12,370 --> 01:24:13,050
Democrat Party.

2490
01:24:13,390 --> 01:24:18,810
I think that they have not seen it

2491
01:24:18,810 --> 01:24:19,630
as hopeless.

2492
01:24:20,230 --> 01:24:22,210
They think, well, okay, it's a pause.

2493
01:24:22,210 --> 01:24:24,390
We'll reestablish this.

2494
01:24:24,770 --> 01:24:25,670
Just give us some time.

2495
01:24:25,810 --> 01:24:27,410
Give us a few minutes to figure this

2496
01:24:27,410 --> 01:24:27,610
out.

2497
01:24:27,870 --> 01:24:30,130
Well, and so maybe that's the reason that

2498
01:24:30,130 --> 01:24:32,310
Trump sends Leave It to Beaver out.

2499
01:24:32,730 --> 01:24:36,170
And she's there running down this list to

2500
01:24:36,170 --> 01:24:39,110
honeypot them back into it to completely destroy

2501
01:24:39,110 --> 01:24:40,990
the party because the party is over.

2502
01:24:41,430 --> 01:24:43,490
This trans party is ending.

2503
01:24:44,550 --> 01:24:47,390
And we've had an ongoing conversation with people

2504
01:24:47,390 --> 01:24:50,730
over email about, you know, I think you

2505
01:24:50,730 --> 01:24:52,130
made the point with the clip on the

2506
01:24:52,130 --> 01:24:54,710
last show, is that it'll be very difficult

2507
01:24:54,710 --> 01:24:57,810
for any parent to finally admit, you know,

2508
01:24:57,890 --> 01:25:00,150
I made a mistake and I really ruined

2509
01:25:00,150 --> 01:25:00,850
my child.

2510
01:25:01,570 --> 01:25:06,750
And it's heartbreaking to think about even that

2511
01:25:06,750 --> 01:25:08,090
thought coming to them.

2512
01:25:08,550 --> 01:25:10,130
But it has to.

2513
01:25:10,230 --> 01:25:12,110
It has to come to that.

2514
01:25:13,770 --> 01:25:17,430
Because, I mean, when President Trump says we're

2515
01:25:17,430 --> 01:25:20,750
the party of common sense, yes, yes.

2516
01:25:21,710 --> 01:25:25,410
I mean, sure, there are people who are

2517
01:25:25,410 --> 01:25:26,490
gender confused.

2518
01:25:28,570 --> 01:25:30,630
But notice, it's always children.

2519
01:25:30,950 --> 01:25:32,450
They're never talking about the adults.

2520
01:25:32,550 --> 01:25:36,470
Oh, yes, okay, someone got a trans operation

2521
01:25:36,470 --> 01:25:37,110
in jail.

2522
01:25:37,230 --> 01:25:37,950
Okay, whatever.

2523
01:25:38,390 --> 01:25:40,890
But they're always saying, well, actually, I had

2524
01:25:40,890 --> 01:25:43,110
a clip, I think.

2525
01:25:45,010 --> 01:25:45,950
Yes, here you go.

2526
01:25:46,010 --> 01:25:47,650
This is in Washington State.

2527
01:25:47,650 --> 01:25:49,410
You'll hear all the memes here.

2528
01:25:49,650 --> 01:25:52,770
This is coming from the Attorney General of

2529
01:25:52,770 --> 01:25:54,850
Washington, Washington State.

2530
01:25:55,650 --> 01:25:57,830
And it's all about the children.

2531
01:25:58,030 --> 01:25:59,750
This president's order is gross.

2532
01:26:00,230 --> 01:26:02,510
Nick Brown says President Trump's executive order to

2533
01:26:02,510 --> 01:26:05,410
restrict federal funding for gender-affirming care for

2534
01:26:05,410 --> 01:26:08,110
minors violates- Mind you, even the fact

2535
01:26:08,110 --> 01:26:11,170
they're saying gender-affirming care is a psychological

2536
01:26:11,170 --> 01:26:13,470
operation by itself.

2537
01:26:14,030 --> 01:26:14,370
Yes.

2538
01:26:14,370 --> 01:26:17,010
Nick Brown says President Trump's executive order to

2539
01:26:17,010 --> 01:26:19,910
restrict federal funding for gender-affirming care for

2540
01:26:19,910 --> 01:26:22,030
minors violates the Constitution.

2541
01:26:22,370 --> 01:26:25,290
It very clearly targets transgender people.

2542
01:26:25,750 --> 01:26:28,210
It is denying them healthcare that is not

2543
01:26:28,210 --> 01:26:30,550
denied or attacked for anybody else.

2544
01:26:30,870 --> 01:26:33,450
Brown's argument bolstered by support by the American

2545
01:26:33,450 --> 01:26:36,470
Academy of Pediatrics and the American Medical Association.

2546
01:26:36,630 --> 01:26:38,490
All in, both paid for.

2547
01:26:38,550 --> 01:26:40,410
I received a puberty blocker.

2548
01:26:40,670 --> 01:26:42,630
Luna Crone Barone is a 19-year-old

2549
01:26:42,630 --> 01:26:43,430
UW student.

2550
01:26:43,430 --> 01:26:45,550
I really was able to lift that weight

2551
01:26:45,550 --> 01:26:48,010
of worrying about going through male puberty off

2552
01:26:48,010 --> 01:26:49,450
my shoulders when I was a really young

2553
01:26:49,450 --> 01:26:49,810
child.

2554
01:26:50,290 --> 01:26:53,890
This order will kill trans children.

2555
01:26:54,250 --> 01:26:54,570
There it is.

2556
01:26:54,570 --> 01:26:57,030
Some Republicans argue the legal fight should prompt

2557
01:26:57,030 --> 01:26:58,370
continued conversation.

2558
01:26:58,810 --> 01:27:03,370
Children are having surgeries that permanently alter themselves,

2559
01:27:03,690 --> 01:27:05,830
and we don't let them even get tattoos.

2560
01:27:06,290 --> 01:27:08,650
State Rep Cindy Jacobson of Parkland has sponsored

2561
01:27:08,650 --> 01:27:11,490
a bill to prohibit puberty blockers, hormone therapy,

2562
01:27:11,630 --> 01:27:14,670
and gender transition surgeries for minors in Olympia

2563
01:27:14,670 --> 01:27:15,890
that has gone nowhere.

2564
01:27:16,190 --> 01:27:17,530
Why do you think the American Academy of

2565
01:27:17,530 --> 01:27:20,110
Pediatrics and the American Medical Association, though, have

2566
01:27:20,110 --> 01:27:22,650
both backed gender-affirming care?

2567
01:27:23,050 --> 01:27:27,230
Well, I mean, it is a medical question.

2568
01:27:27,530 --> 01:27:29,790
Adds GOP State Party Chair Jim Walsh.

2569
01:27:30,170 --> 01:27:33,470
I think that people who are gender-confused

2570
01:27:33,470 --> 01:27:35,930
are genuinely confused.

2571
01:27:36,630 --> 01:27:42,150
And we need to minimize invasive surgeries that

2572
01:27:42,150 --> 01:27:45,930
involve healthy tissue or hormonal treatments.

2573
01:27:46,330 --> 01:27:47,550
How do you answer to other parts of

2574
01:27:47,550 --> 01:27:49,590
the country who say, hey, they want this

2575
01:27:49,590 --> 01:27:50,590
executive order?

2576
01:27:51,010 --> 01:27:52,430
Well, I answer to the people of the

2577
01:27:52,430 --> 01:27:53,770
state of Washington, first and foremost.

2578
01:27:54,370 --> 01:27:56,110
My job is to defend the people who

2579
01:27:56,110 --> 01:27:56,870
don't have a voice.

2580
01:27:57,550 --> 01:27:59,130
My job is to defend our laws.

2581
01:27:59,330 --> 01:28:00,630
And that is why we brought this case.

2582
01:28:01,030 --> 01:28:02,350
It's always children.

2583
01:28:02,350 --> 01:28:04,890
If you want to see what's bad about

2584
01:28:04,890 --> 01:28:07,630
Palestine and Gaza and Israel, what do they

2585
01:28:07,630 --> 01:28:08,130
talk about?

2586
01:28:08,210 --> 01:28:08,990
How many children?

2587
01:28:09,130 --> 01:28:09,830
How many children?

2588
01:28:09,850 --> 01:28:10,930
How many children did they kill?

2589
01:28:11,070 --> 01:28:11,970
They killed children.

2590
01:28:12,090 --> 01:28:13,650
The Republicans are killing children.

2591
01:28:13,910 --> 01:28:15,530
It's a powerful tool.

2592
01:28:15,810 --> 01:28:17,750
And it works in every country around the

2593
01:28:17,750 --> 01:28:17,990
world.

2594
01:28:18,430 --> 01:28:22,290
And these ghouls at USAID have not only

2595
01:28:22,290 --> 01:28:24,450
been researching it with a quarter of a

2596
01:28:24,450 --> 01:28:26,710
billion dollars on mice, who knows what else

2597
01:28:26,710 --> 01:28:27,250
we'll find.

2598
01:28:27,750 --> 01:28:30,050
They have been using this everywhere.

2599
01:28:30,050 --> 01:28:33,150
They want to stir something up, create an

2600
01:28:33,150 --> 01:28:33,730
opposition.

2601
01:28:35,490 --> 01:28:38,970
So they are holding true to their tools

2602
01:28:38,970 --> 01:28:42,270
and to their mission, which is international development,

2603
01:28:42,730 --> 01:28:47,030
which for them has always meant overthrowing a

2604
01:28:47,030 --> 01:28:47,390
government.

2605
01:28:47,910 --> 01:28:49,270
You know, we don't have to kill anybody

2606
01:28:49,270 --> 01:28:49,610
anymore.

2607
01:28:49,630 --> 01:28:51,470
We just get all the trans people riled

2608
01:28:51,470 --> 01:28:51,710
up.

2609
01:28:51,810 --> 01:28:53,330
And then we add the Qs.

2610
01:28:53,390 --> 01:28:56,830
The Q addition needs to be researched because

2611
01:28:56,830 --> 01:28:57,970
everybody can be Q.

2612
01:28:57,970 --> 01:29:00,790
I know young people who, well, I'm queer.

2613
01:29:01,170 --> 01:29:02,010
What does that mean?

2614
01:29:02,070 --> 01:29:03,110
Well, that means I can go to this

2615
01:29:03,110 --> 01:29:04,170
protest for Palestine.

2616
01:29:04,730 --> 01:29:07,210
I mean, it's so obvious to me now.

2617
01:29:07,870 --> 01:29:10,750
And it's, it is, this is bad.

2618
01:29:10,810 --> 01:29:13,070
We've done, we've been bad, bad, bad.

2619
01:29:13,470 --> 01:29:15,650
And I'm glad that, I'm glad they ripped

2620
01:29:15,650 --> 01:29:16,950
the sign right off the building.

2621
01:29:18,290 --> 01:29:19,970
Yeah, they took the sign down.

2622
01:29:20,030 --> 01:29:21,510
And so we'll probably, I don't know if

2623
01:29:21,510 --> 01:29:23,390
we have any clips on this, but the

2624
01:29:23,390 --> 01:29:25,950
next part is, of course, the Department of

2625
01:29:25,950 --> 01:29:26,670
Education.

2626
01:29:27,010 --> 01:29:27,970
Oh, that's coming.

2627
01:29:28,230 --> 01:29:29,930
A quarter of a trillion dollar budget.

2628
01:29:30,190 --> 01:29:33,350
And they have been propagating this trans and

2629
01:29:33,350 --> 01:29:36,170
DEI, but mainly the T and the Q

2630
01:29:36,170 --> 01:29:39,210
on our children for decades.

2631
01:29:39,850 --> 01:29:42,430
Yeah, this all started at least before the

2632
01:29:42,430 --> 01:29:42,850
80s.

2633
01:29:42,970 --> 01:29:43,810
Decades and decades.

2634
01:29:44,510 --> 01:29:46,450
Before we leave the clip that you just

2635
01:29:46,450 --> 01:29:50,050
played, the one thing that's kind of overlooked

2636
01:29:50,050 --> 01:29:51,870
are the lawsuits which are coming.

2637
01:29:51,870 --> 01:29:54,730
And I've said this forever, which is that

2638
01:29:54,730 --> 01:30:00,050
these kids who have been mutilated, literally, and

2639
01:30:00,050 --> 01:30:02,090
they get older, and the next thing you

2640
01:30:02,090 --> 01:30:05,550
know, they snap out of it, out of

2641
01:30:05,550 --> 01:30:07,730
the propaganda, and then they start suing people.

2642
01:30:08,750 --> 01:30:12,130
This one doctor got sued, a transgender surgeon

2643
01:30:12,130 --> 01:30:15,610
doctor, another doctor approved by the AMA.

2644
01:30:16,870 --> 01:30:19,030
And she was on, I have a clip,

2645
01:30:19,130 --> 01:30:20,750
this is called the TS News clip.

2646
01:30:21,350 --> 01:30:22,990
Which I've been carrying for a while.

2647
01:30:24,290 --> 01:30:27,070
She discusses something here which is to me

2648
01:30:27,070 --> 01:30:29,950
like, what are you, are you just making

2649
01:30:29,950 --> 01:30:30,750
this stuff up?

2650
01:30:31,230 --> 01:30:33,230
She was sued by one of her patients

2651
01:30:33,230 --> 01:30:35,210
for mutilation.

2652
01:30:36,470 --> 01:30:38,630
And this is, sorry, I'm just gonna say,

2653
01:30:38,710 --> 01:30:39,670
just let me continue.

2654
01:30:40,850 --> 01:30:43,450
She comes, but this is before any of

2655
01:30:43,450 --> 01:30:43,910
that happened.

2656
01:30:44,050 --> 01:30:47,210
And this is her logic about life in

2657
01:30:47,210 --> 01:30:49,510
general, about gender in general.

2658
01:30:49,510 --> 01:30:50,790
And it's frightening.

2659
01:30:51,350 --> 01:30:52,930
Puberty's bad enough, but if it's the wrong

2660
01:30:52,930 --> 01:30:54,510
one, it's really bad.

2661
01:30:54,910 --> 01:30:57,730
Dr. Johanna Olson-Kennedy is the medical director

2662
01:30:57,730 --> 01:31:00,370
at the Center for Trans Youth Health and

2663
01:31:00,370 --> 01:31:03,010
Development at Children's Hospital Los Angeles.

2664
01:31:03,010 --> 01:31:04,510
These youth that are going through the wrong

2665
01:31:04,510 --> 01:31:06,930
puberty, it's a very precarious time.

2666
01:31:07,030 --> 01:31:09,210
That's when I worry about them, because there's

2667
01:31:09,210 --> 01:31:12,550
enormous rates of self-harm, cutting, burning, and

2668
01:31:12,550 --> 01:31:15,010
other kinds of bodily harm that's self-inflicted.

2669
01:31:15,170 --> 01:31:18,330
But also depression, anxiety, and suicidality.

2670
01:31:20,570 --> 01:31:21,570
Wrong puberty.

2671
01:31:23,190 --> 01:31:24,570
That's a great term.

2672
01:31:25,770 --> 01:31:26,770
Wrong puberty.

2673
01:31:26,930 --> 01:31:28,290
How does that even work?

2674
01:31:29,170 --> 01:31:29,390
Yeah.

2675
01:31:29,730 --> 01:31:31,530
Oh, I don't, you know, puberty is one

2676
01:31:31,530 --> 01:31:34,190
thing, but wrong, because they're going through the

2677
01:31:34,190 --> 01:31:35,210
wrong puberty.

2678
01:31:35,630 --> 01:31:37,470
In other words, you're a boy going to

2679
01:31:37,470 --> 01:31:40,030
boy puberty, or you're a girl becoming a

2680
01:31:40,030 --> 01:31:40,350
woman.

2681
01:31:40,870 --> 01:31:44,090
I had an email conversation with one of

2682
01:31:44,090 --> 01:31:45,970
our psychologists.

2683
01:31:46,530 --> 01:31:50,330
And she's the one that actually, early on

2684
01:31:50,330 --> 01:31:53,430
in the trans discussion, showed me how the

2685
01:31:53,430 --> 01:31:56,090
American Association for Pediatrics and how, you know,

2686
01:31:56,190 --> 01:31:59,810
if a child is self-harming, you're a

2687
01:31:59,810 --> 01:32:00,070
boy.

2688
01:32:00,230 --> 01:32:02,230
I mean, that's pretty much their answer to

2689
01:32:02,230 --> 01:32:02,750
everything.

2690
01:32:03,530 --> 01:32:06,330
And she gave me a one paragraph on

2691
01:32:06,330 --> 01:32:10,070
narcissism and Marxism, which I just like to

2692
01:32:10,070 --> 01:32:10,430
read.

2693
01:32:11,450 --> 01:32:12,810
It's just a number of shows ago, you

2694
01:32:12,810 --> 01:32:14,270
and John talked about narcissism and Marxism.

2695
01:32:14,270 --> 01:32:15,830
I've been thinking about this for weeks, and

2696
01:32:15,830 --> 01:32:16,690
I can share the following.

2697
01:32:16,770 --> 01:32:17,990
So she's a professional in the field.

2698
01:32:18,690 --> 01:32:20,790
Marxism is rooted in resentment.

2699
01:32:21,790 --> 01:32:23,770
I've mentioned to you before, to me, that

2700
01:32:23,770 --> 01:32:25,770
I help people release resentments.

2701
01:32:25,770 --> 01:32:27,670
That's part of her therapy.

2702
01:32:28,070 --> 01:32:30,290
The interesting thing about my process is that

2703
01:32:30,290 --> 01:32:32,010
it requests the client to look at their

2704
01:32:32,010 --> 01:32:33,430
part and acknowledge it.

2705
01:32:33,830 --> 01:32:35,310
She says, however, one time I was in

2706
01:32:35,310 --> 01:32:37,530
a session and got to this step, but

2707
01:32:37,530 --> 01:32:39,090
the client could not do it.

2708
01:32:39,570 --> 01:32:41,130
It occurred to me at that moment that

2709
01:32:41,130 --> 01:32:43,370
my client might be a narcissist.

2710
01:32:44,270 --> 01:32:46,330
The thing is, I never detected she could

2711
01:32:46,330 --> 01:32:47,830
have had a personality disorder.

2712
01:32:48,230 --> 01:32:50,810
And this falls in line with what chameleons

2713
01:32:50,810 --> 01:32:51,890
Marxists can be.

2714
01:32:52,470 --> 01:32:54,830
In the end, narcissists are not capable of

2715
01:32:54,830 --> 01:32:58,170
processing resentments because it's what roots them in

2716
01:32:58,170 --> 01:33:01,890
all their justification without having to acknowledge who

2717
01:33:01,890 --> 01:33:04,630
they are and the part they play, just

2718
01:33:04,630 --> 01:33:05,570
like Marxists.

2719
01:33:05,970 --> 01:33:07,630
And this is what you get on your

2720
01:33:07,630 --> 01:33:08,470
TikTok clips.

2721
01:33:08,470 --> 01:33:10,470
Narcissism is fed.

2722
01:33:11,310 --> 01:33:13,210
I don't know if you can create it.

2723
01:33:13,290 --> 01:33:16,370
According to her, there's no real cure for

2724
01:33:16,370 --> 01:33:19,150
narcissistic personality disorder, just like there's no real

2725
01:33:19,150 --> 01:33:23,550
cure for borderline personality disorder, she says.

2726
01:33:23,650 --> 01:33:26,050
But it can certainly be triggered if a

2727
01:33:26,050 --> 01:33:30,290
narcissist, deep down they're a narcissist for whatever

2728
01:33:30,290 --> 01:33:32,870
trauma or whatever they've had in their lives.

2729
01:33:32,870 --> 01:33:36,090
Going on TikTok, putting a camera on yourself

2730
01:33:36,090 --> 01:33:40,530
all day enforces and reinforces that narcissistic behavior

2731
01:33:40,530 --> 01:33:44,110
and makes these people completely ready to be

2732
01:33:44,110 --> 01:33:46,610
picked up by the trans Maoist agenda, i

2733
01:33:46,610 --> 01:33:48,270
.e. the Democrat Party in America.

2734
01:33:53,040 --> 01:33:53,680
Interesting.

2735
01:33:54,100 --> 01:33:54,360
Yeah.

2736
01:33:55,280 --> 01:33:55,580
Yeah.

2737
01:33:56,680 --> 01:33:58,640
This is, I mean...

2738
01:33:59,440 --> 01:34:01,000
Season of Reveal!

2739
01:34:01,820 --> 01:34:02,600
Oh, brother.

2740
01:34:05,400 --> 01:34:07,360
But we're getting more of this sort of,

2741
01:34:07,560 --> 01:34:08,760
I don't know what to call it, a

2742
01:34:08,760 --> 01:34:10,560
narcissist, but here's a talk clip.

2743
01:34:10,600 --> 01:34:11,100
There we go.

2744
01:34:12,680 --> 01:34:14,620
Which is the kind of stuff we're starting

2745
01:34:14,620 --> 01:34:16,440
to see more and more of, which is

2746
01:34:16,440 --> 01:34:19,120
the, I don't know, even, there's got to

2747
01:34:19,120 --> 01:34:20,780
be a term, it's like a form of

2748
01:34:20,780 --> 01:34:22,780
satire, but it's modern.

2749
01:34:23,140 --> 01:34:24,400
I saw this, I liked it, I thought

2750
01:34:24,400 --> 01:34:25,120
it was very modern.

2751
01:34:25,200 --> 01:34:26,940
I had to cut this way down so

2752
01:34:26,940 --> 01:34:28,880
there's some edits that are obvious and there's

2753
01:34:28,880 --> 01:34:31,460
some edits that you won't catch, but I

2754
01:34:31,460 --> 01:34:34,100
had to take the music out of it.

2755
01:34:34,280 --> 01:34:34,820
Here we go.

2756
01:34:34,960 --> 01:34:35,540
The bus?

2757
01:34:36,520 --> 01:34:37,240
Yeah, the bus.

2758
01:34:37,420 --> 01:34:39,880
It's been, what, it's been like two weeks?

2759
01:34:40,200 --> 01:34:41,760
In two weeks, I'm done.

2760
01:34:42,020 --> 01:34:43,340
You want to talk about regretting your vote?

2761
01:34:43,560 --> 01:34:45,600
In two weeks, I went from the highest

2762
01:34:45,600 --> 01:34:47,060
high to being unemployed.

2763
01:34:47,220 --> 01:34:48,580
Lost my job last night, got a phone

2764
01:34:48,580 --> 01:34:48,800
call.

2765
01:34:48,980 --> 01:34:51,220
The repercussions of what Elon Musk are doing

2766
01:34:51,220 --> 01:34:53,940
with the USAID has real percussions for real

2767
01:34:53,940 --> 01:34:54,260
people.

2768
01:34:54,260 --> 01:34:56,100
For the last seven years, I have been

2769
01:34:56,100 --> 01:34:58,980
a shift lead on Project Bus, where we

2770
01:34:58,980 --> 01:35:01,180
studied to find out if the wheels on

2771
01:35:01,180 --> 01:35:03,100
the bus went round around or not.

2772
01:35:03,580 --> 01:35:06,240
And all of a sudden, Elon, who's not

2773
01:35:06,240 --> 01:35:09,040
even elected, gets in and I'm out of

2774
01:35:09,040 --> 01:35:09,360
a job.

2775
01:35:09,640 --> 01:35:10,540
What do I tell my family?

2776
01:35:10,640 --> 01:35:11,580
What do I tell my kids?

2777
01:35:11,760 --> 01:35:12,400
This isn't a joke.

2778
01:35:12,840 --> 01:35:14,860
This USAID stuff is not a joke, man.

2779
01:35:15,240 --> 01:35:16,500
It's affecting real people.

2780
01:35:17,900 --> 01:35:21,320
And the worst part is, what if we

2781
01:35:21,320 --> 01:35:22,340
never figure out?

2782
01:35:22,340 --> 01:35:23,860
What if we never figure out if, in

2783
01:35:23,860 --> 01:35:25,660
fact, the wheels on the bus do go

2784
01:35:25,660 --> 01:35:26,320
round and round?

2785
01:35:28,840 --> 01:35:29,900
Does nobody care?

2786
01:35:30,500 --> 01:35:32,260
The best part of that video was his

2787
01:35:32,260 --> 01:35:34,340
daughter in the background trying not to laugh.

2788
01:35:34,780 --> 01:35:36,340
Yeah, she's just back there.

2789
01:35:36,480 --> 01:35:37,700
It was very funny.

2790
01:35:37,920 --> 01:35:39,020
It was very, very good.

2791
01:35:39,120 --> 01:35:40,260
I liked it a lot.

2792
01:35:41,120 --> 01:35:42,000
Oh, man.

2793
01:35:42,300 --> 01:35:44,820
There is one other thing about President Trump

2794
01:35:44,820 --> 01:35:47,660
that I am very pleased about.

2795
01:35:47,780 --> 01:35:48,980
A lot of people will be happy.

2796
01:35:49,840 --> 01:35:51,540
Not only do we have MAGA.

2797
01:35:52,090 --> 01:35:54,400
We have MEGA, Make Europe Great Again.

2798
01:35:54,440 --> 01:35:55,800
Oh, by the way, I should probably play

2799
01:35:55,800 --> 01:35:57,500
my quick MEGA clip here.

2800
01:36:00,400 --> 01:36:01,160
Where is it?

2801
01:36:01,200 --> 01:36:01,880
Here we go.

2802
01:36:02,160 --> 01:36:02,660
MEGA.

2803
01:36:02,880 --> 01:36:04,040
Yes, this is the BBC.

2804
01:36:04,320 --> 01:36:06,980
As we record this podcast, leading figures from

2805
01:36:06,980 --> 01:36:09,140
far-right parties in Europe are gathering in

2806
01:36:09,140 --> 01:36:12,460
Spain under the banner Make Europe Great Again.

2807
01:36:13,020 --> 01:36:16,300
Inspired by Donald Trump's MAGA slogan, the Patriots

2808
01:36:16,300 --> 01:36:18,200
for Europe group are gathering for two days

2809
01:36:18,200 --> 01:36:20,340
in Madrid to map out their future strategy.

2810
01:36:20,340 --> 01:36:24,140
The Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban and Francis

2811
01:36:24,140 --> 01:36:26,560
Marine Le Pen are among those expected to

2812
01:36:26,560 --> 01:36:26,980
attend.

2813
01:36:27,240 --> 01:36:30,120
Including Geert Wilders, and there's quite a lot

2814
01:36:30,120 --> 01:36:30,920
going on there.

2815
01:36:31,020 --> 01:36:32,580
People are rising up there as well.

2816
01:36:32,780 --> 01:36:35,060
But you know, they are extreme right now.

2817
01:36:35,160 --> 01:36:36,560
They're not far-right.

2818
01:36:36,660 --> 01:36:38,540
They've moved to extreme right in all the

2819
01:36:38,540 --> 01:36:38,940
reporting.

2820
01:36:39,980 --> 01:36:43,440
Meanwhile, we still have MAGA, we have MEGA,

2821
01:36:43,660 --> 01:36:44,980
and we have MANGA.

2822
01:36:45,620 --> 01:36:46,560
Have you heard of MANGA?

2823
01:36:47,960 --> 01:36:49,180
No, not yet.

2824
01:36:49,660 --> 01:36:52,080
Make Africa News Great Again.

2825
01:36:52,360 --> 01:36:54,700
US President Donald Trump followed through on his

2826
01:36:54,700 --> 01:36:57,340
promise to punish South Africa by signing in

2827
01:36:57,340 --> 01:36:59,680
an executive order stopping all aid to the

2828
01:36:59,680 --> 01:37:02,040
country over what he called a human rights

2829
01:37:02,040 --> 01:37:04,160
violation against a white minority group.

2830
01:37:04,440 --> 01:37:07,220
Many in Johannesburg said on Saturday they disagreed

2831
01:37:07,220 --> 01:37:08,100
with Trump's move.

2832
01:37:08,480 --> 01:37:10,560
There's no such thing that I've read or

2833
01:37:10,560 --> 01:37:13,360
experienced or seen on our social media in

2834
01:37:13,360 --> 01:37:17,940
South Africa that really has a connotation around

2835
01:37:17,940 --> 01:37:21,100
white people being mistreated in this country.

2836
01:37:21,960 --> 01:37:24,940
He should have actually come from the Americas

2837
01:37:24,940 --> 01:37:27,660
to South Africa to come and see what

2838
01:37:27,660 --> 01:37:29,400
was happening for himself and not just take

2839
01:37:29,400 --> 01:37:31,500
the word of an Elon Musk who hasn't

2840
01:37:31,500 --> 01:37:34,080
lived in this country for the longest of

2841
01:37:34,080 --> 01:37:36,740
time, who doesn't even relate to South Africans.

2842
01:37:36,920 --> 01:37:39,480
The Trump administration said the South African government

2843
01:37:39,480 --> 01:37:42,940
was allowing violent attacks against Afrikaner farming communities.

2844
01:37:42,940 --> 01:37:45,300
Land distribution in South Africa has been a

2845
01:37:45,300 --> 01:37:48,580
complicated and highly emotive issue with racial connotations

2846
01:37:48,580 --> 01:37:50,300
for more than 30 years since the end

2847
01:37:50,300 --> 01:37:52,880
of the apartheid system of white minority rule

2848
01:37:52,880 --> 01:37:53,660
in 1994.

2849
01:37:54,720 --> 01:37:57,700
Granted, I'm saying MANGA make Africa News Great

2850
01:37:57,700 --> 01:38:00,120
Again in the hopes that we'll have some

2851
01:38:00,120 --> 01:38:02,400
Western reporting so we can actually understand what

2852
01:38:02,400 --> 01:38:03,420
the heck they're saying.

2853
01:38:05,240 --> 01:38:06,500
That's not gonna happen.

2854
01:38:06,760 --> 01:38:09,680
I'm hoping, I'm really hoping, I'm hoping, I'm

2855
01:38:09,680 --> 01:38:11,020
hoping, I'm hoping, I'm hoping.

2856
01:38:12,940 --> 01:38:18,550
Well, the, there's the, our Secretary of State

2857
01:38:18,550 --> 01:38:21,110
refused to go to South Africa recently and

2858
01:38:21,110 --> 01:38:22,610
there's, South Africa is a target.

2859
01:38:22,790 --> 01:38:24,250
I think South Africa is a target.

2860
01:38:24,350 --> 01:38:25,630
I think the UK is a target.

2861
01:38:25,850 --> 01:38:28,250
Oh yeah, well, and that's, and that's like

2862
01:38:28,250 --> 01:38:30,790
the UK, you know, they went the other

2863
01:38:30,790 --> 01:38:34,730
way and they tried the whole trans thing

2864
01:38:34,730 --> 01:38:38,170
and, you know, it backfired so bad because,

2865
01:38:38,270 --> 01:38:41,630
you know, the people wouldn't rally around immigration

2866
01:38:41,630 --> 01:38:43,670
and say, hey, you know, we just want

2867
01:38:43,670 --> 01:38:45,370
people to be diverse in our country.

2868
01:38:45,670 --> 01:38:48,110
So instead they went straight to, if you

2869
01:38:48,110 --> 01:38:50,670
hurt someone's feelings on social media, you're going

2870
01:38:50,670 --> 01:38:51,250
to jail.

2871
01:38:52,150 --> 01:38:54,650
You know, which, the jump was unbelievable.

2872
01:38:55,170 --> 01:38:55,990
They had to make it.

2873
01:38:56,010 --> 01:38:57,470
They, I mean, they, they were out of

2874
01:38:57,470 --> 01:38:57,770
options.

2875
01:38:57,790 --> 01:38:58,950
They didn't have to do anything.

2876
01:38:59,170 --> 01:39:01,470
Well, okay, but they were out of options.

2877
01:39:01,610 --> 01:39:02,510
They're just out of options.

2878
01:39:02,650 --> 01:39:04,590
These people are insane.

2879
01:39:05,470 --> 01:39:06,130
They're insane.

2880
01:39:06,810 --> 01:39:08,190
I tell you, they're insane.

2881
01:39:09,570 --> 01:39:11,010
So I have a, here's a clip.

2882
01:39:12,090 --> 01:39:14,370
Uh, there's a little gotcha in here.

2883
01:39:14,530 --> 01:39:16,490
Uh, this is the Elizabeth Warren clip you

2884
01:39:16,490 --> 01:39:17,470
may or may not have seen.

2885
01:39:17,750 --> 01:39:19,290
I probably haven't.

2886
01:39:19,650 --> 01:39:20,710
Where is she?

2887
01:39:21,170 --> 01:39:22,010
Is it under Warren?

2888
01:39:22,190 --> 01:39:22,450
Yes.

2889
01:39:22,630 --> 01:39:22,890
Yep.

2890
01:39:23,070 --> 01:39:23,370
Okay.

2891
01:39:23,450 --> 01:39:23,710
Warren.

2892
01:39:23,830 --> 01:39:26,410
We built a government to work for all

2893
01:39:26,410 --> 01:39:26,790
of us.

2894
01:39:26,930 --> 01:39:27,590
Yes, yes, yes.

2895
01:39:27,690 --> 01:39:30,810
We're just all better off if in fact

2896
01:39:30,810 --> 01:39:34,470
the, the, the bird flu gets under control

2897
01:39:34,470 --> 01:39:36,650
and that our eggs won't kill us.

2898
01:39:36,790 --> 01:39:38,490
We are all better off.

2899
01:39:38,630 --> 01:39:39,290
We're better off.

2900
01:39:39,290 --> 01:39:42,010
Thank God our eggs, thank the government.

2901
01:39:42,310 --> 01:39:43,810
Our eggs won't kill us.

2902
01:39:44,350 --> 01:39:44,850
Thank you.

2903
01:39:45,110 --> 01:39:46,670
She throws, throws that in.

2904
01:39:46,770 --> 01:39:48,630
She talks about bird flu and then we

2905
01:39:48,630 --> 01:39:51,930
know that the price of eggs has skyrocketed

2906
01:39:51,930 --> 01:39:54,510
because of the bird flu, the culling of

2907
01:39:54,510 --> 01:39:55,050
the egg.

2908
01:39:55,350 --> 01:39:57,430
There's a, I think I have a report

2909
01:39:57,430 --> 01:39:58,070
on that too.

2910
01:39:58,670 --> 01:40:01,210
Uh, but, and then she, they, they kind

2911
01:40:01,210 --> 01:40:03,410
of, she makes the association of the eggs

2912
01:40:03,410 --> 01:40:04,370
won't kill us.

2913
01:40:04,450 --> 01:40:05,310
They won't kill us.

2914
01:40:05,690 --> 01:40:07,210
When, when did that even show up in

2915
01:40:07,210 --> 01:40:07,970
the conversation?

2916
01:40:09,290 --> 01:40:10,670
Why is she saying it?

2917
01:40:11,730 --> 01:40:13,450
She's on Joy Reed, by the way.

2918
01:40:13,510 --> 01:40:14,410
Oh, of course she is.

2919
01:40:14,530 --> 01:40:15,050
Of course she is.

2920
01:40:15,130 --> 01:40:16,070
You can play the rest of it or

2921
01:40:16,070 --> 01:40:16,310
not.

2922
01:40:16,490 --> 01:40:17,350
I want to hear it.

2923
01:40:17,610 --> 01:40:20,490
Gets under control and that our eggs won't

2924
01:40:20,490 --> 01:40:20,970
kill us.

2925
01:40:21,350 --> 01:40:22,750
We are all better off.

2926
01:40:22,850 --> 01:40:23,590
We're better off.

2927
01:40:23,690 --> 01:40:25,630
We make these investments in infrastructure.

2928
01:40:25,950 --> 01:40:28,730
We make this investments in our payment system

2929
01:40:28,730 --> 01:40:30,150
so people don't get cheated.

2930
01:40:31,090 --> 01:40:32,930
That's how we keep the economy going.

2931
01:40:33,310 --> 01:40:35,550
And look, bless everybody who gets out there

2932
01:40:35,550 --> 01:40:36,570
and makes a fortune.

2933
01:40:36,570 --> 01:40:38,610
Bless everybody who gets up every day and

2934
01:40:38,610 --> 01:40:43,510
goes to work, but understand the underpinnings of

2935
01:40:43,510 --> 01:40:46,430
all that are something we all invested in.

2936
01:40:46,930 --> 01:40:49,990
And now we've got Donald Trump and his

2937
01:40:49,990 --> 01:40:53,270
co-president Elon Musk, and they're just running

2938
01:40:53,270 --> 01:40:55,010
a wrecking ball through it.

2939
01:40:55,170 --> 01:40:55,690
A wrecking ball.

2940
01:40:55,730 --> 01:40:58,490
And it's not like it's an abstract problem.

2941
01:40:58,490 --> 01:41:03,630
It is really and truly the kid who

2942
01:41:03,630 --> 01:41:06,990
needs an aid to be able to sit

2943
01:41:06,990 --> 01:41:09,690
in class so that they can get an

2944
01:41:09,690 --> 01:41:14,010
education, taking that aid away and maybe taking

2945
01:41:14,010 --> 01:41:15,190
away that whole classroom.

2946
01:41:16,050 --> 01:41:17,110
She is.

2947
01:41:17,330 --> 01:41:18,430
She's the worst.

2948
01:41:19,130 --> 01:41:21,250
Well, there is a setup underway.

2949
01:41:21,370 --> 01:41:23,250
The setup for the bird flu.

2950
01:41:23,890 --> 01:41:27,550
And this is kind of the reverse psychology.

2951
01:41:28,010 --> 01:41:30,210
You just got to keep telling people that

2952
01:41:30,210 --> 01:41:33,770
there's no evidence of human to human transmission.

2953
01:41:34,150 --> 01:41:36,390
Human to human transmission has not yet happened.

2954
01:41:36,690 --> 01:41:38,590
There's no human to human transmission.

2955
01:41:38,850 --> 01:41:40,690
If it jumps, but it hasn't happened yet.

2956
01:41:40,750 --> 01:41:41,610
So don't worry about it.

2957
01:41:41,730 --> 01:41:42,750
This is New York City.

2958
01:41:42,870 --> 01:41:45,510
It's an all out effort to prevent an

2959
01:41:45,510 --> 01:41:46,110
epidemic.

2960
01:41:46,750 --> 01:41:49,510
Dozens of live poultry markets in and around

2961
01:41:49,510 --> 01:41:52,070
New York City are on notice tonight to

2962
01:41:52,070 --> 01:41:55,190
sell off or slaughter all of their poultry

2963
01:41:55,190 --> 01:41:56,870
within 24 hours.

2964
01:41:56,870 --> 01:42:00,970
Then shut down and disinfect for five days.

2965
01:42:01,190 --> 01:42:03,130
There is no immediate public health threat.

2966
01:42:03,570 --> 01:42:05,710
We have been vigilant and will remain vigilant

2967
01:42:05,710 --> 01:42:07,470
so New Yorkers can go about their lives

2968
01:42:07,470 --> 01:42:08,710
with peace of mind.

2969
01:42:09,010 --> 01:42:10,730
It all comes as the number of dead

2970
01:42:10,730 --> 01:42:12,050
birds is rising.

2971
01:42:12,590 --> 01:42:14,910
A dozen geese dead in Westchester.

2972
01:42:15,210 --> 01:42:18,010
Several public parks are now closed after wild

2973
01:42:18,010 --> 01:42:20,490
birds were found dead as far north as

2974
01:42:20,490 --> 01:42:20,950
Boston.

2975
01:42:21,670 --> 01:42:23,730
Bird flu has been detected in seven live

2976
01:42:23,730 --> 01:42:25,910
markets here in New York and on Long

2977
01:42:25,910 --> 01:42:26,270
Island.

2978
01:42:26,270 --> 01:42:29,310
Hundreds of thousands of ducks were euthanized when

2979
01:42:29,310 --> 01:42:31,310
the disease was detected there.

2980
01:42:31,690 --> 01:42:34,210
67 people have been infected in the US,

2981
01:42:34,350 --> 01:42:38,090
all with mild symptoms, all had direct contact

2982
01:42:38,090 --> 01:42:39,370
with sick animals.

2983
01:42:39,750 --> 01:42:41,970
City health officials say that's crucial.

2984
01:42:42,510 --> 01:42:44,490
The current risk to New Yorkers of bird

2985
01:42:44,490 --> 01:42:45,890
flu remains low.

2986
01:42:46,270 --> 01:42:48,950
We have not seen avian influenza develop the

2987
01:42:48,950 --> 01:42:51,690
ability to transmit between people.

2988
01:42:51,970 --> 01:42:53,630
But a strain of the virus has been

2989
01:42:53,630 --> 01:42:55,730
detected in livestock in Nevada.

2990
01:42:56,270 --> 01:42:58,610
Experts say it's important to be vigilant.

2991
01:42:58,990 --> 01:43:01,250
Mutation could occur that allows it to either

2992
01:43:01,250 --> 01:43:02,970
be more virulent.

2993
01:43:03,090 --> 01:43:05,830
That means causing more severe disease or causing

2994
01:43:05,830 --> 01:43:08,350
sustained human to human transmission, which again, my

2995
01:43:08,350 --> 01:43:09,810
reiterate, is not the case right now.

2996
01:43:10,050 --> 01:43:12,650
Authorities say there's zero risk from eating poultry

2997
01:43:12,650 --> 01:43:15,070
or eggs so long as they're cooked.

2998
01:43:15,530 --> 01:43:17,390
Three ducks died from the disease at the

2999
01:43:17,390 --> 01:43:19,990
Queen's Zoo and tests are pending tonight on

3000
01:43:19,990 --> 01:43:22,370
a dozen dead birds here at the Bronx

3001
01:43:22,370 --> 01:43:22,730
Zoo.

3002
01:43:22,730 --> 01:43:24,990
But to be clear, there has been no

3003
01:43:24,990 --> 01:43:28,390
known human to human transmission of avian flu.

3004
01:43:28,750 --> 01:43:29,630
So they are.

3005
01:43:29,990 --> 01:43:30,390
Great clip.

3006
01:43:31,690 --> 01:43:33,190
Psy op clip.

3007
01:43:33,550 --> 01:43:33,830
Yes.

3008
01:43:33,970 --> 01:43:35,770
Now the CDC is not allowed.

3009
01:43:35,930 --> 01:43:37,410
This is very smart by the president.

3010
01:43:37,850 --> 01:43:42,090
The CDC is not allowed to publish any

3011
01:43:42,090 --> 01:43:42,770
material.

3012
01:43:42,950 --> 01:43:44,390
He has some kind of moratorium.

3013
01:43:44,510 --> 01:43:46,110
I'm not sure exactly how that works.

3014
01:43:46,490 --> 01:43:50,550
But I did learn this morning that something

3015
01:43:50,550 --> 01:43:52,250
is changing within the CDC.

3016
01:43:52,250 --> 01:43:54,190
If you go to the Centers for Disease

3017
01:43:54,190 --> 01:43:57,230
Control and Prevention, CDC.gov, and you type

3018
01:43:57,230 --> 01:44:00,070
in abortion, the first thing that pops up

3019
01:44:00,070 --> 01:44:02,130
is also try adoption.

3020
01:44:03,010 --> 01:44:04,170
That is very new.

3021
01:44:04,690 --> 01:44:06,170
They've never had that.

3022
01:44:07,170 --> 01:44:08,870
So things are changing.

3023
01:44:09,350 --> 01:44:10,390
It's Doge.

3024
01:44:10,650 --> 01:44:11,230
It's Doge.

3025
01:44:11,310 --> 01:44:12,090
Doge is everywhere.

3026
01:44:12,570 --> 01:44:13,930
It's Doge changing everything.

3027
01:44:14,610 --> 01:44:15,610
Well, I think that's why he has to

3028
01:44:15,610 --> 01:44:16,450
go so fast.

3029
01:44:17,050 --> 01:44:18,950
Well, yes, you have to be a wrecking

3030
01:44:18,950 --> 01:44:19,170
ball.

3031
01:44:19,250 --> 01:44:19,750
Absolutely.

3032
01:44:20,450 --> 01:44:23,430
And the wrecking ball analogy is being used

3033
01:44:23,430 --> 01:44:23,850
a lot.

3034
01:44:24,350 --> 01:44:25,950
We had it just so far in this

3035
01:44:25,950 --> 01:44:28,930
show today, just by accident, two clips mentioned

3036
01:44:28,930 --> 01:44:29,750
the wrecking ball.

3037
01:44:29,910 --> 01:44:30,050
Yep.

3038
01:44:30,370 --> 01:44:31,730
Well, that's that's no accident.

3039
01:44:31,830 --> 01:44:33,070
Just clips, I might add.

3040
01:44:33,210 --> 01:44:33,670
It's not.

3041
01:44:33,770 --> 01:44:34,530
It's no accident.

3042
01:44:38,090 --> 01:44:40,950
Now, I should probably mention that there's a

3043
01:44:40,950 --> 01:44:44,450
lot of people on the who are extreme

3044
01:44:44,450 --> 01:44:47,750
right, who are very, very worried about what

3045
01:44:47,750 --> 01:44:48,270
is happening.

3046
01:44:48,990 --> 01:44:51,150
And one of them who keeps popping up

3047
01:44:51,150 --> 01:44:52,890
on my radar, because people send it to

3048
01:44:52,890 --> 01:44:54,570
me, is Catherine Austin Fitz.

3049
01:44:55,210 --> 01:44:57,250
You've probably seen a clip of her.

3050
01:44:58,690 --> 01:45:01,130
Kind of older lady, blonde hair.

3051
01:45:01,590 --> 01:45:03,690
She lives in Holland now because, you know,

3052
01:45:03,730 --> 01:45:04,810
she feared for her life.

3053
01:45:04,890 --> 01:45:06,790
And so she was much safer there, obviously.

3054
01:45:08,570 --> 01:45:11,770
And so she publishes the Solari report.

3055
01:45:12,030 --> 01:45:13,670
I'm sure we've played clips of her.

3056
01:45:14,350 --> 01:45:15,870
I don't recall any of this.

3057
01:45:15,870 --> 01:45:16,330
Right.

3058
01:45:16,530 --> 01:45:19,910
Well, she's around because she's very anti-blockchain.

3059
01:45:20,830 --> 01:45:23,110
And and but she's she's definitely.

3060
01:45:23,490 --> 01:45:24,910
Well, anti-blockchain.

3061
01:45:25,050 --> 01:45:25,370
Oh, yeah.

3062
01:45:25,690 --> 01:45:26,330
Well, why?

3063
01:45:26,470 --> 01:45:27,070
Well, I'll explain.

3064
01:45:27,350 --> 01:45:29,890
So they were they produced the Solari report.

3065
01:45:29,970 --> 01:45:31,790
They have some kind of funding because, you

3066
01:45:31,790 --> 01:45:33,030
know, they do a lot of work.

3067
01:45:33,110 --> 01:45:34,630
They do seminars, all kinds of stuff.

3068
01:45:35,090 --> 01:45:36,310
And here's the headline.

3069
01:45:36,870 --> 01:45:40,270
Trump administration digital control grid coming together at

3070
01:45:40,270 --> 01:45:41,050
high speed.

3071
01:45:41,330 --> 01:45:43,270
And this is kind of where Bannon is

3072
01:45:43,270 --> 01:45:44,130
these days, too.

3073
01:45:44,130 --> 01:45:46,250
I'll just go through some of the highlights.

3074
01:45:46,270 --> 01:45:48,390
By the way, I just interrupt you.

3075
01:45:49,250 --> 01:45:52,910
Bannon, who who they've tried to get bring

3076
01:45:52,910 --> 01:45:55,910
to the fore because he's anti-Musk.

3077
01:45:57,370 --> 01:46:00,370
He's kind of seems to be like more

3078
01:46:00,370 --> 01:46:05,110
and more marginalized because he predicted that Musk

3079
01:46:05,110 --> 01:46:07,910
would be gone before the inauguration, if you

3080
01:46:07,910 --> 01:46:08,350
recall.

3081
01:46:08,530 --> 01:46:08,670
Yep.

3082
01:46:09,250 --> 01:46:11,190
And it's just the opposite.

3083
01:46:11,190 --> 01:46:13,830
Well, we have to remember who Bannon is

3084
01:46:13,830 --> 01:46:14,410
backed by.

3085
01:46:14,550 --> 01:46:17,650
He's backed by the that Chinese dissident billionaire.

3086
01:46:18,970 --> 01:46:21,290
That's remember he had the song used to

3087
01:46:21,290 --> 01:46:24,130
play, you know, go away, CCP.

3088
01:46:24,710 --> 01:46:27,750
These everything with him is CCP, CCP, the

3089
01:46:27,750 --> 01:46:29,930
Communist, Communist Party of China.

3090
01:46:30,090 --> 01:46:31,170
They're trying to take over.

3091
01:46:31,450 --> 01:46:32,650
Dilan's in their pocket.

3092
01:46:33,790 --> 01:46:35,170
Which may or may not be true.

3093
01:46:35,930 --> 01:46:37,690
So here's the Solari report.

3094
01:46:37,790 --> 01:46:38,730
Digital IDs.

3095
01:46:39,260 --> 01:46:40,890
The real ID is being supported with a

3096
01:46:40,890 --> 01:46:41,950
strong push through the states.

3097
01:46:42,130 --> 01:46:44,210
Immigration effort also appears to be supporting the

3098
01:46:44,210 --> 01:46:46,630
combination of digital IDs plus biometrics.

3099
01:46:47,450 --> 01:46:48,690
Stargate data centers.

3100
01:46:49,290 --> 01:46:51,450
The Stargate initiative involves the building out of

3101
01:46:51,450 --> 01:46:53,690
data centers sufficient to support a complete control

3102
01:46:53,690 --> 01:46:56,110
grid and all digital monetary system.

3103
01:46:56,410 --> 01:46:58,130
By the way, there's a lot of this

3104
01:46:58,130 --> 01:47:01,830
on no authority to Stargate MRNA injections.

3105
01:47:02,050 --> 01:47:05,830
The proposal for personalized MRNA vaccines for cancer

3106
01:47:05,830 --> 01:47:07,570
indicates a plan to roll out the injection

3107
01:47:07,570 --> 01:47:10,130
program sufficient to implement the Internet of Bodies

3108
01:47:10,130 --> 01:47:12,670
and continue to lower life expectancy.

3109
01:47:13,250 --> 01:47:14,410
Internet of Bodies.

3110
01:47:14,830 --> 01:47:17,350
Switching fiscal control to central bankers.

3111
01:47:17,830 --> 01:47:20,790
The doge takeover of Treasury payment systems combined

3112
01:47:20,790 --> 01:47:23,010
with the purge of the civil service is

3113
01:47:23,010 --> 01:47:25,610
designed to end congressional control of fiscal flows

3114
01:47:25,610 --> 01:47:26,270
and policies.

3115
01:47:26,810 --> 01:47:28,270
This leaves the New York Fed and global

3116
01:47:28,270 --> 01:47:30,690
central bankers in complete control of the financial

3117
01:47:30,690 --> 01:47:33,490
line social credit system.

3118
01:47:33,490 --> 01:47:36,070
It looks like the doge takeover of systems

3119
01:47:36,070 --> 01:47:37,910
is setting up the infrastructure to start a

3120
01:47:37,910 --> 01:47:40,370
social credit system as well using federal payments.

3121
01:47:40,770 --> 01:47:43,410
Hate crime accusations and entrapments are designed to

3122
01:47:43,410 --> 01:47:44,030
assist here.

3123
01:47:45,150 --> 01:47:46,230
Crypto push.

3124
01:47:46,950 --> 01:47:49,490
The testing of an all digital transaction system

3125
01:47:49,490 --> 01:47:52,690
continues using private crypto while a regulatory framework

3126
01:47:52,690 --> 01:47:54,730
for crypto is being put in place and

3127
01:47:54,730 --> 01:47:56,530
stable coins are going to be used to

3128
01:47:56,530 --> 01:47:59,590
significantly improve the dollar's ability to dollarize the

3129
01:47:59,590 --> 01:48:00,470
emerging markets.

3130
01:48:01,430 --> 01:48:02,470
Land grab.

3131
01:48:02,470 --> 01:48:03,030
Here we go.

3132
01:48:03,530 --> 01:48:05,050
One of the big goals is to use

3133
01:48:05,050 --> 01:48:08,130
Bitcoin, which is a Ponzi scheme, to swap

3134
01:48:08,130 --> 01:48:09,310
for real assets.

3135
01:48:09,650 --> 01:48:12,290
500 trillion of land and minerals as Howard

3136
01:48:12,290 --> 01:48:13,050
Lutnick puts it.

3137
01:48:13,330 --> 01:48:15,570
If mandated, government purchases can run up the

3138
01:48:15,570 --> 01:48:17,650
price of Bitcoin and then the 2%

3139
01:48:17,650 --> 01:48:20,430
who own 70% of Bitcoin can swap

3140
01:48:20,430 --> 01:48:22,770
their Bitcoin for land on a secret tax

3141
01:48:22,770 --> 01:48:23,490
free basis.

3142
01:48:24,170 --> 01:48:25,130
I can't wait.

3143
01:48:25,430 --> 01:48:26,010
I can't wait.

3144
01:48:26,310 --> 01:48:27,770
And it just goes on and on and

3145
01:48:27,770 --> 01:48:28,270
on and on.

3146
01:48:29,410 --> 01:48:30,450
Weather warfare.

3147
01:48:31,630 --> 01:48:33,290
Um, Gaza genocide.

3148
01:48:34,210 --> 01:48:36,990
I mean, there's a lot of people.

3149
01:48:38,590 --> 01:48:40,370
People lap this stuff up.

3150
01:48:40,370 --> 01:48:40,770
They do.

3151
01:48:40,910 --> 01:48:41,330
They do.

3152
01:48:41,550 --> 01:48:42,210
Of course they do.

3153
01:48:42,430 --> 01:48:43,430
It's entertaining.

3154
01:48:43,730 --> 01:48:48,010
It creates fear that then can be allayed

3155
01:48:48,010 --> 01:48:48,830
by knowledge.

3156
01:48:48,970 --> 01:48:50,130
What they think is knowledge.

3157
01:48:50,310 --> 01:48:50,590
This is.

3158
01:48:50,670 --> 01:48:51,590
But this is Whitney Webb.

3159
01:48:51,830 --> 01:48:55,070
You know, the PayPal mafia, Palantir is going

3160
01:48:55,070 --> 01:48:55,770
to run everything.

3161
01:48:56,310 --> 01:48:56,870
Same camp.

3162
01:48:56,990 --> 01:48:57,510
Same camp.

3163
01:48:57,590 --> 01:48:57,730
Yeah.

3164
01:48:57,850 --> 01:48:59,270
I just want to acknowledge it.

3165
01:48:59,290 --> 01:49:00,310
I don't agree with it.

3166
01:49:00,450 --> 01:49:03,170
I don't know anything about this group.

3167
01:49:03,590 --> 01:49:06,410
Yeah, she gets interviewed a lot because she

3168
01:49:06,410 --> 01:49:07,190
was in HUD.

3169
01:49:07,790 --> 01:49:10,150
She was the undersecretary of HUD during Bush

3170
01:49:10,150 --> 01:49:11,030
2, I think.

3171
01:49:11,470 --> 01:49:12,170
Or young Bush.

3172
01:49:13,810 --> 01:49:15,850
So she's got, you know, and she has

3173
01:49:15,850 --> 01:49:16,730
a lot of things right.

3174
01:49:16,890 --> 01:49:17,410
She says, you know.

3175
01:49:20,190 --> 01:49:22,190
You're having a lot of things right.

3176
01:49:22,730 --> 01:49:23,910
But that's how you do it.

3177
01:49:24,270 --> 01:49:25,210
That's how you do it.

3178
01:49:25,290 --> 01:49:26,250
Yeah, exactly.

3179
01:49:26,310 --> 01:49:27,090
That's how we do it.

3180
01:49:27,290 --> 01:49:28,190
That's we are actually.

3181
01:49:28,310 --> 01:49:29,650
No, we don't do it that way.

3182
01:49:29,650 --> 01:49:31,110
We have everything right.

3183
01:49:31,210 --> 01:49:33,110
Where's my USAID check?

3184
01:49:35,070 --> 01:49:36,850
We're sorry, USAID.

3185
01:49:37,150 --> 01:49:37,750
Where's my check?

3186
01:49:38,230 --> 01:49:40,950
We were promoting the trans agenda.

3187
01:49:41,230 --> 01:49:44,030
And if we were promoting drag queen story

3188
01:49:44,030 --> 01:49:44,470
hour.

3189
01:49:44,690 --> 01:49:46,250
And if we were promoting a lot of

3190
01:49:46,250 --> 01:49:47,910
other stuff, we'd probably get a check from

3191
01:49:47,910 --> 01:49:48,630
USAID.

3192
01:49:48,710 --> 01:49:49,930
But we don't do that.

3193
01:49:50,030 --> 01:49:52,550
No, instead, I'm going to thank you for

3194
01:49:52,550 --> 01:49:53,050
your courage.

3195
01:49:53,130 --> 01:49:54,470
Say in the morning to you, the man

3196
01:49:54,470 --> 01:49:57,050
who put the C in the USAID checks.

3197
01:49:57,130 --> 01:49:57,730
We don't get.

3198
01:49:57,730 --> 01:49:59,090
Say hello to my friend on the other

3199
01:49:59,090 --> 01:49:59,250
end.

3200
01:49:59,330 --> 01:50:01,070
The one and only Mr. John C.

3201
01:50:01,270 --> 01:50:01,630
DeMora.

3202
01:50:04,610 --> 01:50:06,350
Yeah, well, in the morning to you, Mr.

3203
01:50:06,450 --> 01:50:06,890
Adam Curry.

3204
01:50:06,970 --> 01:50:08,810
Also in the morning, all the ships and

3205
01:50:08,810 --> 01:50:09,930
sea boots in the ground feed in the

3206
01:50:09,930 --> 01:50:10,130
air.

3207
01:50:10,310 --> 01:50:11,810
The subs in the water and the dames

3208
01:50:11,810 --> 01:50:12,890
and the knights out there.

3209
01:50:13,430 --> 01:50:14,950
In the morning to the trolls in the

3210
01:50:14,950 --> 01:50:15,690
troll room.

3211
01:50:22,720 --> 01:50:24,740
Two thousand six hundred and fifty four.

3212
01:50:26,260 --> 01:50:26,980
Yeah, yeah.

3213
01:50:27,440 --> 01:50:28,020
Yeah, yeah.

3214
01:50:28,040 --> 01:50:29,760
More people than than.

3215
01:50:29,760 --> 01:50:31,380
But it hasn't.

3216
01:50:31,540 --> 01:50:33,300
The last Sunday was almost the same or

3217
01:50:33,300 --> 01:50:34,320
maybe even a little more.

3218
01:50:35,680 --> 01:50:36,260
Yeah, I know.

3219
01:50:36,320 --> 01:50:38,520
So we have a new high average, higher

3220
01:50:38,520 --> 01:50:39,060
average.

3221
01:50:39,180 --> 01:50:40,700
The average is higher yet.

3222
01:50:40,840 --> 01:50:42,240
OK, well, I can see that.

3223
01:50:42,260 --> 01:50:44,020
But then again, the Super Bowl Sunday, people

3224
01:50:44,020 --> 01:50:45,640
are listening to guys making a lot more

3225
01:50:45,640 --> 01:50:48,620
money than we are yammering about who's going

3226
01:50:48,620 --> 01:50:49,440
to win the Super Bowl.

3227
01:50:49,520 --> 01:50:51,720
Oh, I think you can't bet against Kansas

3228
01:50:51,720 --> 01:50:51,940
City.

3229
01:50:51,980 --> 01:50:54,860
Can't bet against my homes on and on

3230
01:50:54,860 --> 01:50:55,240
and on.

3231
01:50:56,060 --> 01:50:59,260
And we will have our political prediction after

3232
01:50:59,260 --> 01:51:01,160
the after this segment, I think.

3233
01:51:01,360 --> 01:51:02,280
I think we should do it at the

3234
01:51:02,280 --> 01:51:03,800
end of this segment to keep people.

3235
01:51:03,980 --> 01:51:04,460
I think we will.

3236
01:51:04,600 --> 01:51:05,860
Or we'll put it somewhere in the middle

3237
01:51:05,860 --> 01:51:07,140
of the segment just to throw them.

3238
01:51:07,200 --> 01:51:08,500
If you want to hear our predictions, you

3239
01:51:08,500 --> 01:51:09,780
might as well stick to the donations.

3240
01:51:10,020 --> 01:51:11,220
Yeah, I'm not going to do that.

3241
01:51:11,980 --> 01:51:14,840
Oh, OK, well, you're not you're no fun.

3242
01:51:14,920 --> 01:51:17,580
You know, fun, you know, fun stuff we

3243
01:51:17,580 --> 01:51:18,400
can put in the middle.

3244
01:51:19,280 --> 01:51:21,060
These are the trolls in the troll room.

3245
01:51:21,500 --> 01:51:22,880
Some of them angry at me today.

3246
01:51:23,660 --> 01:51:23,960
Why?

3247
01:51:23,960 --> 01:51:27,140
I'm like, I noticed no agenda hasn't talked

3248
01:51:27,140 --> 01:51:28,160
about this.

3249
01:51:29,600 --> 01:51:31,580
There's all kinds of stuff we don't talk

3250
01:51:31,580 --> 01:51:33,260
about, but we haven't got to.

3251
01:51:33,460 --> 01:51:36,660
Yes, because, you know, both so boring with

3252
01:51:36,660 --> 01:51:37,180
the doing.

3253
01:51:37,700 --> 01:51:38,620
I love it.

3254
01:51:38,800 --> 01:51:39,420
You're drunk.

3255
01:51:39,720 --> 01:51:40,600
You're on your couch.

3256
01:51:40,660 --> 01:51:41,240
You're drunk.

3257
01:51:42,900 --> 01:51:44,700
You're yelling at a podcast.

3258
01:51:45,460 --> 01:51:46,260
Consider your life.

3259
01:51:49,160 --> 01:51:51,980
Shaking your fist, shaking your fist at the

3260
01:51:51,980 --> 01:51:52,960
podcast machine.

3261
01:51:52,960 --> 01:51:53,800
You bastards.

3262
01:51:55,940 --> 01:51:57,480
The trolls are in the troll room, a

3263
01:51:57,480 --> 01:51:58,680
troll room dot IO.

3264
01:51:58,880 --> 01:52:01,720
And thank you very much to warm up

3265
01:52:01,720 --> 01:52:03,820
pre-show guy, Darren O'Neill, for getting

3266
01:52:03,820 --> 01:52:05,520
everybody riled up and ready for the big

3267
01:52:05,520 --> 01:52:05,860
show.

3268
01:52:06,780 --> 01:52:07,780
Riles me up, too.

3269
01:52:07,920 --> 01:52:10,100
I love his his rock and roll pre

3270
01:52:10,100 --> 01:52:10,340
-show.

3271
01:52:10,880 --> 01:52:12,660
And you can listen to that at the

3272
01:52:12,660 --> 01:52:14,500
troll room by logging in there, or you

3273
01:52:14,500 --> 01:52:16,260
can listen at no agenda dot stream or

3274
01:52:16,260 --> 01:52:18,000
use a modern podcast app.

3275
01:52:18,320 --> 01:52:20,960
So many people complaining like, oh, hey, your

3276
01:52:20,960 --> 01:52:23,300
episode, you haven't uploaded it to iTunes.

3277
01:52:23,800 --> 01:52:25,620
You haven't uploaded it to the Apple podcast.

3278
01:52:25,860 --> 01:52:26,760
That's not how it works.

3279
01:52:26,980 --> 01:52:27,640
That's not how it works.

3280
01:52:27,720 --> 01:52:28,220
Doesn't matter.

3281
01:52:28,800 --> 01:52:30,860
That's an Apple problem, not a no agenda

3282
01:52:30,860 --> 01:52:31,280
problem.

3283
01:52:31,360 --> 01:52:33,580
So get a modern podcast app at podcastapps

3284
01:52:33,580 --> 01:52:33,900
.com.

3285
01:52:33,980 --> 01:52:34,760
I was looking at the stats.

3286
01:52:35,660 --> 01:52:38,880
Podverse is is almost as many people listen

3287
01:52:38,880 --> 01:52:40,920
on Apple as they do on Podverse, which

3288
01:52:40,920 --> 01:52:42,260
is kind of interesting.

3289
01:52:43,460 --> 01:52:45,740
But you can listen to Podcast Guru, Podcast

3290
01:52:45,740 --> 01:52:52,800
Addict, Fountain, CurioCaster, FountainData, I mean, TrueFans.fm.

3291
01:52:52,880 --> 01:52:54,560
There's all kinds of podcast apps.

3292
01:52:54,980 --> 01:52:57,720
And they listen to the podcasting 2.0

3293
01:52:57,720 --> 01:53:00,160
database, the index, the biggest one in the

3294
01:53:00,160 --> 01:53:01,400
world, the most accurate one.

3295
01:53:01,620 --> 01:53:03,140
They get a pod ping with the minute

3296
01:53:03,140 --> 01:53:03,720
we publish.

3297
01:53:03,840 --> 01:53:05,460
And then 90 seconds later, it's up on

3298
01:53:05,460 --> 01:53:05,780
that app.

3299
01:53:05,840 --> 01:53:06,700
That's the one you want.

3300
01:53:07,080 --> 01:53:08,920
And when we send out the bat signal,

3301
01:53:09,320 --> 01:53:11,920
you can actually tap that and listen on

3302
01:53:11,920 --> 01:53:13,740
the same app you get your podcast on.

3303
01:53:13,880 --> 01:53:16,940
It's compatible with backwards compatible with your podcast.

3304
01:53:16,940 --> 01:53:19,360
You can export your OPML file, whatever you

3305
01:53:19,360 --> 01:53:22,080
do, and re-subscribe in the modern podcast

3306
01:53:22,080 --> 01:53:22,300
app.

3307
01:53:22,340 --> 01:53:24,380
This brings me to the bonus content.

3308
01:53:24,620 --> 01:53:25,620
You have bonus content?

3309
01:53:26,080 --> 01:53:28,220
I sent you a note about, don't forget,

3310
01:53:28,440 --> 01:53:30,100
can you talk about this on the show?

3311
01:53:30,180 --> 01:53:31,880
Oh, yeah, I saved that.

3312
01:53:32,340 --> 01:53:33,540
And you have the note there.

3313
01:53:33,600 --> 01:53:35,480
And I wanted you to talk about something

3314
01:53:35,480 --> 01:53:37,660
you said in an email on the show,

3315
01:53:37,700 --> 01:53:39,660
because I didn't know this was going on.

3316
01:53:39,820 --> 01:53:42,940
And it's something you should be proud of

3317
01:53:42,940 --> 01:53:43,860
yourself for doing.

3318
01:53:43,860 --> 01:53:46,720
Well, we get a lot of notes.

3319
01:53:48,120 --> 01:53:51,600
And they've become more customized over time.

3320
01:53:51,680 --> 01:53:52,400
Here's an example.

3321
01:53:52,560 --> 01:53:53,060
Hi, Adam.

3322
01:53:53,260 --> 01:53:55,420
My name is Daisy, and I'm reaching out

3323
01:53:55,420 --> 01:53:57,040
on behalf of Christian Ray Flores.

3324
01:53:57,640 --> 01:54:00,500
We're big fans of No Agenda, especially your

3325
01:54:00,500 --> 01:54:03,420
recent episode, 1732, Sig Hail.

3326
01:54:04,200 --> 01:54:07,220
Christian's story is one of extraordinary transformation and

3327
01:54:07,220 --> 01:54:07,660
resilience.

3328
01:54:08,200 --> 01:54:10,560
As a child refugee in Chile, raised in

3329
01:54:10,560 --> 01:54:12,840
Africa, he became a top pop star in

3330
01:54:12,840 --> 01:54:15,620
Russia with his hit, Our Generation, serving as

3331
01:54:15,620 --> 01:54:18,460
an anthem to President Boris Yeltsin's campaign against

3332
01:54:18,460 --> 01:54:19,040
communism.

3333
01:54:19,620 --> 01:54:21,120
And it goes on and on and on.

3334
01:54:21,460 --> 01:54:23,620
And then we think we'd love to explore

3335
01:54:23,620 --> 01:54:25,740
how he could bring value to your show

3336
01:54:25,740 --> 01:54:28,100
and send you an electronic copy of the

3337
01:54:28,100 --> 01:54:28,320
book.

3338
01:54:29,220 --> 01:54:31,500
So usually it's pitching someone to have an

3339
01:54:31,500 --> 01:54:32,620
interview on our show.

3340
01:54:33,720 --> 01:54:35,760
But as I was going back and forth

3341
01:54:35,760 --> 01:54:40,280
with John, I explained that there are many

3342
01:54:40,280 --> 01:54:45,900
that have been, certainly, different places where there's

3343
01:54:45,900 --> 01:54:48,080
collections of podcast feeds.

3344
01:54:48,660 --> 01:54:51,420
In every podcast feed, there's something called a

3345
01:54:51,420 --> 01:54:53,320
tag called the owner email.

3346
01:54:54,040 --> 01:54:56,860
And on the owner email, it's adammccurry.com.

3347
01:54:56,960 --> 01:54:58,400
So if there's ever an issue with the

3348
01:54:58,400 --> 01:55:01,580
feed, someone knows where to contact somebody.

3349
01:55:01,940 --> 01:55:03,340
And that's just a part of the spec.

3350
01:55:05,080 --> 01:55:07,660
So, in fact, these days, there are AI

3351
01:55:07,660 --> 01:55:08,260
companies.

3352
01:55:08,580 --> 01:55:10,480
I didn't have time to, I can get

3353
01:55:10,480 --> 01:55:14,720
you the names because James Cridland, he's a,

3354
01:55:14,940 --> 01:55:15,800
he does pod news.

3355
01:55:15,880 --> 01:55:16,860
He knows all this stuff.

3356
01:55:16,900 --> 01:55:17,820
I'll have to ask him about it.

3357
01:55:18,080 --> 01:55:20,000
But there are these companies who have scraped

3358
01:55:20,000 --> 01:55:21,200
all of those feeds.

3359
01:55:21,340 --> 01:55:23,100
And you can do that quite easily, except

3360
01:55:23,100 --> 01:55:26,000
not on podcastindex.org because our API does

3361
01:55:26,000 --> 01:55:27,680
not return that result.

3362
01:55:27,920 --> 01:55:29,260
And we get emails every day.

3363
01:55:29,600 --> 01:55:31,540
Hey, yeah, I have a research project.

3364
01:55:31,540 --> 01:55:33,860
Would it be possible to get the owner

3365
01:55:33,860 --> 01:55:36,480
email tag from your database?

3366
01:55:36,600 --> 01:55:38,360
And we're like, no, go away, scammer.

3367
01:55:38,400 --> 01:55:39,200
We know what you're doing.

3368
01:55:39,640 --> 01:55:42,900
And so now with AI, they're scanning through

3369
01:55:42,900 --> 01:55:45,560
the feeds very quickly, getting the most recent

3370
01:55:45,560 --> 01:55:47,480
episode, grabbing the title.

3371
01:55:48,000 --> 01:55:49,460
They figure out who is one of the

3372
01:55:49,460 --> 01:55:49,880
hosts.

3373
01:55:50,260 --> 01:55:52,560
Sometimes it just says, hi, Noah Jenda, instead

3374
01:55:52,560 --> 01:55:52,980
of Adam.

3375
01:55:53,520 --> 01:55:55,920
And this is spam.

3376
01:55:56,120 --> 01:55:58,400
This is 100% spam that they're doing

3377
01:55:58,400 --> 01:55:58,620
here.

3378
01:55:58,720 --> 01:55:59,780
Is that what you wanted me to say?

3379
01:56:00,420 --> 01:56:01,780
No, not at all.

3380
01:56:02,300 --> 01:56:04,420
It was interesting to a point, but no,

3381
01:56:04,620 --> 01:56:05,440
it was about the fact.

3382
01:56:05,640 --> 01:56:05,980
I misunderstood.

3383
01:56:07,060 --> 01:56:07,460
Jeez.

3384
01:56:07,920 --> 01:56:08,600
I don't know.

3385
01:56:09,140 --> 01:56:11,040
It was about the tag.

3386
01:56:11,360 --> 01:56:12,280
Yeah, that's what I just said.

3387
01:56:12,360 --> 01:56:13,000
The owner email tag.

3388
01:56:13,000 --> 01:56:13,860
No, I know, but it was, it was,

3389
01:56:13,980 --> 01:56:15,700
the interesting thing was there was a tag

3390
01:56:15,700 --> 01:56:17,700
to keep these guys from doing stuff.

3391
01:56:17,900 --> 01:56:18,180
No.

3392
01:56:18,320 --> 01:56:19,520
And that's what I wanted you to talk

3393
01:56:19,520 --> 01:56:21,200
about solely, not the fact that we're getting

3394
01:56:21,200 --> 01:56:21,740
spammed.

3395
01:56:21,960 --> 01:56:22,640
You misunderstood.

3396
01:56:23,200 --> 01:56:25,160
There is no tag to keep them from

3397
01:56:25,160 --> 01:56:25,740
doing it.

3398
01:56:26,440 --> 01:56:27,280
I didn't say that.

3399
01:56:27,280 --> 01:56:30,880
I said at podcastindex.org, we do not

3400
01:56:30,880 --> 01:56:32,140
publish that information.

3401
01:56:32,900 --> 01:56:33,300
Yeah.

3402
01:56:33,580 --> 01:56:34,680
Well, I think that's what I meant.

3403
01:56:34,880 --> 01:56:35,000
Okay.

3404
01:56:35,060 --> 01:56:36,160
Well, I just said that.

3405
01:56:36,880 --> 01:56:38,920
Well, it was not what I expected.

3406
01:56:39,060 --> 01:56:40,540
Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you.

3407
01:56:41,180 --> 01:56:42,000
You know, whatever.

3408
01:56:42,200 --> 01:56:43,420
It was something you were doing.

3409
01:56:43,520 --> 01:56:44,440
I thought it was interesting.

3410
01:56:44,640 --> 01:56:46,740
And I said, let's make sure to talk

3411
01:56:46,740 --> 01:56:47,320
about this.

3412
01:56:47,520 --> 01:56:49,560
And now that you're talking about it, it's

3413
01:56:49,560 --> 01:56:50,800
not as interesting as I thought.

3414
01:56:50,980 --> 01:56:51,440
Bad idea.

3415
01:56:52,760 --> 01:56:53,980
I screwed up.

3416
01:56:54,180 --> 01:56:55,160
Bad idea supply.

3417
01:56:56,600 --> 01:56:58,420
Jeez, bad idea supply.

3418
01:56:58,900 --> 01:56:59,020
Yes.

3419
01:56:59,560 --> 01:57:01,080
For all your burning needs.

3420
01:57:01,320 --> 01:57:02,960
The troll room wants me to repeat it.

3421
01:57:03,060 --> 01:57:04,140
No, we're not going to do it.

3422
01:57:05,680 --> 01:57:08,280
What we will do is thank the artists.

3423
01:57:08,500 --> 01:57:11,140
We have many artists who deliver value back

3424
01:57:11,140 --> 01:57:12,320
to the show as a part of our

3425
01:57:12,320 --> 01:57:13,360
value for value model.

3426
01:57:13,500 --> 01:57:16,700
We don't have pitches before, and certainly won't

3427
01:57:16,700 --> 01:57:19,660
run the same ad twice for Capital One

3428
01:57:19,660 --> 01:57:21,640
like NPR does illegally.

3429
01:57:21,640 --> 01:57:25,500
I might point out or against their charter.

3430
01:57:26,180 --> 01:57:27,720
We don't have plus bundles.

3431
01:57:28,520 --> 01:57:30,120
You don't have a problem like when we

3432
01:57:30,120 --> 01:57:33,440
stream live and you don't have an issue

3433
01:57:33,440 --> 01:57:36,120
because of 4K and everyone's watching or listening.

3434
01:57:36,420 --> 01:57:38,060
We get two and a half thousand trolls.

3435
01:57:38,180 --> 01:57:38,960
It's just fine.

3436
01:57:39,340 --> 01:57:41,140
We do it all as a public service.

3437
01:57:41,260 --> 01:57:43,040
And we do it because we love you.

3438
01:57:43,280 --> 01:57:44,320
Fundamentally, we love you.

3439
01:57:45,020 --> 01:57:47,340
And we receive value back in a number

3440
01:57:47,340 --> 01:57:47,660
of ways.

3441
01:57:47,760 --> 01:57:48,800
Time, talent, or treasure.

3442
01:57:48,800 --> 01:57:52,560
Tauntaunil comes in out of nowhere, out of

3443
01:57:52,560 --> 01:57:53,180
left field.

3444
01:57:53,280 --> 01:57:55,000
I'm using my sports ball of things here

3445
01:57:55,000 --> 01:57:55,280
today.

3446
01:57:55,720 --> 01:57:59,400
And scores the artwork for episode 1735.

3447
01:57:59,640 --> 01:58:01,560
We titled that The Blurt, which is a

3448
01:58:01,560 --> 01:58:02,680
new term we have coined.

3449
01:58:02,880 --> 01:58:05,580
John Coyne, more accurately, for President Trump will

3450
01:58:05,580 --> 01:58:06,840
be on the lookout for The Blurt.

3451
01:58:07,260 --> 01:58:11,740
And she did just a beautiful postcard from

3452
01:58:11,740 --> 01:58:15,220
La Gazziera, as in Riviera, La Gazziera.

3453
01:58:15,780 --> 01:58:18,840
And it just, it hit.

3454
01:58:19,120 --> 01:58:19,760
We liked it.

3455
01:58:19,860 --> 01:58:21,120
There were other things, I think.

3456
01:58:21,280 --> 01:58:22,740
There were other pieces that we looked at.

3457
01:58:22,740 --> 01:58:23,720
Yeah, well, the other one that we were

3458
01:58:23,720 --> 01:58:26,120
actually, I was pushing for initially, but I

3459
01:58:26,120 --> 01:58:26,700
had to agree.

3460
01:58:26,840 --> 01:58:28,340
These are the two I liked was that

3461
01:58:28,340 --> 01:58:32,000
one and the USAID benefit concert art.

3462
01:58:32,000 --> 01:58:35,200
Yes, yes, like a USA for Africa.

3463
01:58:35,200 --> 01:58:37,140
Which I knew from the get-go wasn't

3464
01:58:37,140 --> 01:58:39,260
going to cut it with you because it

3465
01:58:39,260 --> 01:58:40,280
was too busy.

3466
01:58:40,700 --> 01:58:41,780
It was too busy.

3467
01:58:42,020 --> 01:58:43,500
And hard to read.

3468
01:58:43,500 --> 01:58:45,080
This is your two complaints.

3469
01:58:45,280 --> 01:58:47,100
Generally speaking, there's a couple of things you

3470
01:58:47,100 --> 01:58:48,340
should note, artists.

3471
01:58:48,480 --> 01:58:49,420
This is for artist tip.

3472
01:58:49,820 --> 01:58:50,280
Yes, tip.

3473
01:58:50,500 --> 01:58:53,080
If it's too busy or hard to read,

3474
01:58:53,140 --> 01:58:54,640
in other words, the type fonts are too

3475
01:58:54,640 --> 01:58:57,280
small for Adam to read.

3476
01:58:57,520 --> 01:58:58,420
For Adam specifically.

3477
01:58:59,560 --> 01:59:01,560
It will get rejected out of hand.

3478
01:59:01,860 --> 01:59:05,340
My complaints are mostly for gruesomeness.

3479
01:59:05,480 --> 01:59:05,940
Yes.

3480
01:59:06,760 --> 01:59:08,740
Like the worms, for example.

3481
01:59:08,880 --> 01:59:11,380
No, worms are not going to make it.

3482
01:59:12,880 --> 01:59:15,540
Monsters, devil images, stuff like that.

3483
01:59:15,740 --> 01:59:17,000
None of that's ever, it's never going to

3484
01:59:17,000 --> 01:59:17,460
get through.

3485
01:59:18,040 --> 01:59:19,400
And there's some, I have a couple of

3486
01:59:19,400 --> 01:59:22,960
other little rejection red lines.

3487
01:59:23,120 --> 01:59:25,440
Well, also there's, are names large enough?

3488
01:59:25,580 --> 01:59:28,420
Is the font, you know, you have more.

3489
01:59:28,440 --> 01:59:29,820
Yeah, but we both agree on those things.

3490
01:59:29,880 --> 01:59:31,560
And you don't agree so much on the

3491
01:59:31,560 --> 01:59:33,880
gruesomeness and I don't agree so much on

3492
01:59:33,880 --> 01:59:34,400
the busyness.

3493
01:59:34,600 --> 01:59:35,260
I love gruesome.

3494
01:59:35,380 --> 01:59:36,000
I love gruesome.

3495
01:59:36,420 --> 01:59:38,020
You like gruesome, you actually do.

3496
01:59:38,020 --> 01:59:42,040
And so these two pieces were in competition

3497
01:59:42,040 --> 01:59:43,840
with each other and it was just had

3498
01:59:43,840 --> 01:59:45,980
to be the Tantaniel piece.

3499
01:59:46,140 --> 01:59:47,120
She hadn't won for a while either.

3500
01:59:47,740 --> 01:59:50,000
But it was just one of those, it's

3501
01:59:50,000 --> 01:59:51,460
a classic No Agenda piece.

3502
01:59:51,620 --> 01:59:52,780
Yeah, not that that matters.

3503
01:59:53,120 --> 01:59:53,340
We don't.

3504
01:59:53,640 --> 01:59:53,920
It does.

3505
01:59:54,040 --> 01:59:54,760
It matters to me.

3506
01:59:54,840 --> 01:59:55,600
We were happy.

3507
01:59:55,760 --> 01:59:56,700
We said, oh, that's great.

3508
01:59:57,100 --> 01:59:58,100
She deserves it.

3509
01:59:59,440 --> 02:00:00,600
Was there anything else?

3510
02:00:02,460 --> 02:00:04,140
Yeah, the apple with the worms.

3511
02:00:04,520 --> 02:00:05,640
That was, who did that?

3512
02:00:05,680 --> 02:00:06,720
That was also Sir Shug.

3513
02:00:06,720 --> 02:00:09,360
He missed it twice by just a little

3514
02:00:09,360 --> 02:00:09,900
bit.

3515
02:00:11,620 --> 02:00:12,060
Sorry.

3516
02:00:12,420 --> 02:00:14,100
So I use for the newsletter.

3517
02:00:14,280 --> 02:00:17,440
I use the other piece that came in

3518
02:00:17,440 --> 02:00:17,840
late.

3519
02:00:18,060 --> 02:00:19,980
It was the organoid came in early, actually.

3520
02:00:20,120 --> 02:00:23,660
It's the Rubbalizer by Blue Acorn.

3521
02:00:23,800 --> 02:00:24,760
It was just a nice piece.

3522
02:00:24,900 --> 02:00:26,400
And he's modified it and made it a

3523
02:00:26,400 --> 02:00:26,860
little better.

3524
02:00:27,040 --> 02:00:27,700
Kind of.

3525
02:00:27,740 --> 02:00:28,540
I'm not sure it is.

3526
02:00:28,660 --> 02:00:31,080
That was the Magaza Rubbalizer?

3527
02:00:31,740 --> 02:00:33,080
No, just the Rubbalizer.

3528
02:00:33,320 --> 02:00:33,900
It's a bomb.

3529
02:00:34,260 --> 02:00:35,280
Oh, that one.

3530
02:00:35,280 --> 02:00:39,220
The plunger, the electrical thing that sends electric

3531
02:00:39,220 --> 02:00:39,760
charge.

3532
02:00:40,000 --> 02:00:42,100
Those are actually generators.

3533
02:00:42,440 --> 02:00:44,320
Yes, they generate electricity to fire.

3534
02:00:44,520 --> 02:00:46,560
They generate a pop of electricity and it

3535
02:00:46,560 --> 02:00:48,180
goes down the wire and blow something up.

3536
02:00:48,560 --> 02:00:48,820
Yes.

3537
02:00:49,340 --> 02:00:50,200
Anyway, it's nice.

3538
02:00:50,320 --> 02:00:54,260
I think more people are resorting once again

3539
02:00:54,260 --> 02:00:57,420
to doing classic art themselves without AI, which

3540
02:00:57,420 --> 02:00:58,820
is a nice trend I'm seeing.

3541
02:00:58,940 --> 02:01:00,140
A small one, but it's a trend.

3542
02:01:01,460 --> 02:01:01,980
No.

3543
02:01:02,280 --> 02:01:03,140
Yeah, yeah, I'm seeing.

3544
02:01:03,140 --> 02:01:04,580
No, it's a trend.

3545
02:01:07,480 --> 02:01:08,900
I'm a trend watcher.

3546
02:01:09,180 --> 02:01:10,900
No, you're an optimist.

3547
02:01:11,300 --> 02:01:12,440
Well, for sure.

3548
02:01:13,380 --> 02:01:14,020
For sure.

3549
02:01:14,700 --> 02:01:15,000
Yes.

3550
02:01:15,700 --> 02:01:16,260
I see nothing.

3551
02:01:16,340 --> 02:01:17,560
Or actually, I don't even know if it's

3552
02:01:17,560 --> 02:01:18,300
an optimist.

3553
02:01:18,740 --> 02:01:19,660
I got it.

3554
02:01:19,940 --> 02:01:24,340
You're a wishful thinker, which is different than

3555
02:01:24,340 --> 02:01:25,080
an optimist.

3556
02:01:26,680 --> 02:01:27,240
No, I think.

3557
02:01:27,360 --> 02:01:31,280
You have your target, which is real art.

3558
02:01:32,040 --> 02:01:37,000
And you wistfully, as in a wishful thinker,

3559
02:01:37,060 --> 02:01:40,640
hope to God that things would go that

3560
02:01:40,640 --> 02:01:41,200
direction.

3561
02:01:41,660 --> 02:01:42,360
But you know this.

3562
02:01:42,620 --> 02:01:44,620
But you also got to be a realist.

3563
02:01:44,720 --> 02:01:45,360
And no, it's not.

3564
02:01:45,480 --> 02:01:46,460
No, it's not going to happen.

3565
02:01:46,480 --> 02:01:46,980
It's over.

3566
02:01:48,500 --> 02:01:49,540
We just don't want to admit it.

3567
02:01:49,840 --> 02:01:50,860
We shall see.

3568
02:01:50,960 --> 02:01:51,600
You know, I did.

3569
02:01:52,400 --> 02:01:53,440
See, there you go.

3570
02:01:54,020 --> 02:01:54,200
Well.

3571
02:01:54,400 --> 02:01:55,280
We shall see.

3572
02:01:55,380 --> 02:01:59,980
That is the motto of the wishful thinker.

3573
02:02:00,700 --> 02:02:05,940
I did some playing around with DeepSeek yesterday.

3574
02:02:09,060 --> 02:02:11,100
And DeepSeek is very interesting.

3575
02:02:11,240 --> 02:02:12,880
So I run the model at home.

3576
02:02:13,080 --> 02:02:14,980
So, you know, so it's a little more

3577
02:02:14,980 --> 02:02:16,100
pure, I would say.

3578
02:02:16,940 --> 02:02:20,620
And I would challenge anybody to use any

3579
02:02:20,620 --> 02:02:24,520
AI, but certainly the DeepSeek.

3580
02:02:25,300 --> 02:02:28,660
And apply the Mann-Gellman amnesia effect.

3581
02:02:28,660 --> 02:02:31,860
So ask it something that you absolutely are

3582
02:02:31,860 --> 02:02:32,860
an expert in.

3583
02:02:33,660 --> 02:02:35,700
And then you will see the flaws.

3584
02:02:36,140 --> 02:02:37,240
Yeah, I agree.

3585
02:02:37,540 --> 02:02:39,360
And so they've come up with this new

3586
02:02:39,360 --> 02:02:42,780
parlor trick, which is called Think, which says,

3587
02:02:42,880 --> 02:02:44,100
oh, it's reasoning.

3588
02:02:45,200 --> 02:02:46,940
And to me, it's just a parlor trick.

3589
02:02:47,040 --> 02:02:49,340
So I said, who invented podcasting?

3590
02:02:50,800 --> 02:02:52,200
Ah, there you go.

3591
02:02:52,540 --> 02:02:55,220
And then, and I won't even bore you

3592
02:02:55,220 --> 02:02:55,960
with the first bit.

3593
02:02:56,000 --> 02:02:57,420
It was like Adam Sandler.

3594
02:02:57,420 --> 02:03:00,600
And I said, no, Adam Curry invented podcasting.

3595
02:03:00,720 --> 02:03:02,240
Then it goes into think mode.

3596
02:03:02,380 --> 02:03:03,800
OK, this is the output.

3597
02:03:04,340 --> 02:03:05,340
So the user just told me.

3598
02:03:05,440 --> 02:03:07,020
No, it didn't say Adam Sandler.

3599
02:03:07,140 --> 02:03:07,920
It sure did.

3600
02:03:08,980 --> 02:03:09,720
It sure did.

3601
02:03:11,380 --> 02:03:12,260
Adam Sandler?

3602
02:03:12,500 --> 02:03:13,300
It sure did.

3603
02:03:14,040 --> 02:03:14,260
Wow.

3604
02:03:14,620 --> 02:03:14,880
Yep.

3605
02:03:15,520 --> 02:03:15,980
I don't know.

3606
02:03:16,160 --> 02:03:18,680
I mean, OK, but I'll let that slide.

3607
02:03:19,720 --> 02:03:22,540
And then I said, Adam Curry invented podcasting.

3608
02:03:22,600 --> 02:03:24,480
Then it goes into think reasoning mode and

3609
02:03:24,480 --> 02:03:26,760
says, OK, so the user just told me

3610
02:03:26,760 --> 02:03:28,620
that Adam Curry invented podcasting.

3611
02:03:28,680 --> 02:03:29,280
That's interesting.

3612
02:03:29,700 --> 02:03:30,960
I need to figure out if this is

3613
02:03:30,960 --> 02:03:33,060
accurate and what Adam Curry actually did.

3614
02:03:33,500 --> 02:03:35,780
First off, I know several people named Adam

3615
02:03:35,780 --> 02:03:38,780
Curry, like the musician and actor mentioned earlier.

3616
02:03:38,920 --> 02:03:39,780
That's Adam Sandler.

3617
02:03:40,180 --> 02:03:42,200
But none of them are directly associated with

3618
02:03:42,200 --> 02:03:44,000
podcasting, as far as I'm aware.

3619
02:03:44,440 --> 02:03:44,980
Wait a minute.

3620
02:03:46,020 --> 02:03:48,200
Maybe the user is referring to someone else,

3621
02:03:48,220 --> 02:03:50,180
or perhaps they're mixing up facts from other

3622
02:03:50,180 --> 02:03:51,340
inventions or innovations.

3623
02:03:52,020 --> 02:03:54,300
Podcasting itself was definitely a big thing in

3624
02:03:54,300 --> 02:03:57,120
recent years, thanks to platforms like Spotify and

3625
02:03:57,120 --> 02:03:58,240
Apple Podcasts.

3626
02:03:58,240 --> 02:04:00,160
But who is credited with inventing it?

3627
02:04:01,100 --> 02:04:03,640
And so it's using words like recall and

3628
02:04:03,640 --> 02:04:05,340
wait a minute to make you think that

3629
02:04:05,340 --> 02:04:06,920
this is that this machine is thinking.

3630
02:04:07,180 --> 02:04:07,620
It's not.

3631
02:04:07,760 --> 02:04:08,700
It's a trick.

3632
02:04:09,080 --> 02:04:09,960
I recall.

3633
02:04:10,240 --> 02:04:10,740
Absolutely.

3634
02:04:10,940 --> 02:04:13,620
I recall that podcasting wasn't really invented by

3635
02:04:13,620 --> 02:04:15,980
a single person, but evolved over time.

3636
02:04:16,440 --> 02:04:19,120
The earliest podcasts were done by organizations like

3637
02:04:19,120 --> 02:04:21,600
the BBC in the UK and NPR in

3638
02:04:21,600 --> 02:04:23,080
the U.S. during the 20th century.

3639
02:04:23,080 --> 02:04:23,420
Wow.

3640
02:04:23,480 --> 02:04:24,840
They're way off on this.

3641
02:04:24,840 --> 02:04:28,420
These organizations use dictation tapes to record shows

3642
02:04:28,420 --> 02:04:30,480
and send them over the phone or mail.

3643
02:04:31,280 --> 02:04:32,740
Then there's Samuel A.

3644
02:04:32,860 --> 02:04:35,420
Jones, often called the father of podcasting.

3645
02:04:35,780 --> 02:04:39,500
He founded the American Public Service Association, the

3646
02:04:39,500 --> 02:04:43,480
APSA, in 1927, which produced programs like The

3647
02:04:43,480 --> 02:04:45,920
World at Large, where notable figures like Einstein

3648
02:04:45,920 --> 02:04:46,980
and Hemingway spoke.

3649
02:04:47,260 --> 02:04:49,440
That was way before modern podcasting.

3650
02:04:49,780 --> 02:04:51,600
So if Adam Curry is claiming to have

3651
02:04:51,600 --> 02:04:53,380
invented podcasting, I'm skeptical.

3652
02:04:53,380 --> 02:04:55,980
Maybe he's confused with someone else or perhaps

3653
02:04:55,980 --> 02:04:56,740
some misunderstanding.

3654
02:04:57,660 --> 02:05:00,780
I mean, this is how insane it is.

3655
02:05:02,280 --> 02:05:05,480
You're being kicked to the curb.

3656
02:05:05,580 --> 02:05:06,820
I've been erased by China.

3657
02:05:07,940 --> 02:05:08,960
By China.

3658
02:05:11,440 --> 02:05:12,880
It's a parlor trick.

3659
02:05:12,900 --> 02:05:15,200
That's not even close to accurate in any

3660
02:05:15,200 --> 02:05:18,100
way, shape, or form, starting with the skipping

3661
02:05:18,100 --> 02:05:20,920
the Adam Sandler thing, taking podcasting to the

3662
02:05:20,920 --> 02:05:24,460
1920s, when it's obvious that podcasting couldn't exist

3663
02:05:24,460 --> 02:05:29,000
before the iPod was invented, so that doesn't

3664
02:05:29,000 --> 02:05:29,460
make sense.

3665
02:05:29,480 --> 02:05:30,460
It doesn't even mention that.

3666
02:05:31,300 --> 02:05:34,600
So what happens, I think, is that when

3667
02:05:34,600 --> 02:05:37,000
they see this think tag and then backslash

3668
02:05:37,000 --> 02:05:39,440
think, so this is the reasoning, you are

3669
02:05:39,440 --> 02:05:41,940
then supposed to jump in and are supposed

3670
02:05:41,940 --> 02:05:44,260
to say, no, no, you're thinking wrong.

3671
02:05:44,920 --> 02:05:47,100
And so you're basically doing half the work.

3672
02:05:47,100 --> 02:05:49,020
I mean, I won't even tell you about

3673
02:05:49,020 --> 02:05:51,200
me looking for Bible scriptures with this thing.

3674
02:05:51,380 --> 02:05:54,220
It told me because of how it was

3675
02:05:54,220 --> 02:05:58,560
programmed, it's not allowed to quote scripture directly

3676
02:05:58,560 --> 02:06:00,660
because of cultural sensitivity.

3677
02:06:02,880 --> 02:06:03,240
What?

3678
02:06:03,580 --> 02:06:04,140
Yes.

3679
02:06:04,800 --> 02:06:06,420
What cultural sensitivity?

3680
02:06:06,860 --> 02:06:08,140
I know, I kept telling it.

3681
02:06:08,580 --> 02:06:10,320
You cannot offend me.

3682
02:06:10,880 --> 02:06:12,080
I'm a born-again Christian.

3683
02:06:12,200 --> 02:06:12,860
I love Jesus.

3684
02:06:13,020 --> 02:06:13,660
I love you.

3685
02:06:14,000 --> 02:06:15,040
You cannot offend me.

3686
02:06:15,380 --> 02:06:16,760
And it still wouldn't do it.

3687
02:06:17,480 --> 02:06:18,880
That's a Chinese atheist.

3688
02:06:19,360 --> 02:06:21,840
Exactly, exactly.

3689
02:06:23,620 --> 02:06:26,800
Which brings me, remind me to do my

3690
02:06:26,800 --> 02:06:28,600
blue sky clips after the break.

3691
02:06:28,840 --> 02:06:30,980
And talk about bonus, see, this is it.

3692
02:06:31,020 --> 02:06:32,780
We don't need the Super Bowl stuff in

3693
02:06:32,780 --> 02:06:33,020
here.

3694
02:06:33,120 --> 02:06:33,780
No, we don't.

3695
02:06:33,900 --> 02:06:37,040
This is solid information that's valuable to the

3696
02:06:37,040 --> 02:06:37,380
listener.

3697
02:06:37,840 --> 02:06:38,340
Content, baby.

3698
02:06:39,140 --> 02:06:39,700
Content.

3699
02:06:40,140 --> 02:06:42,820
We always like to thank our producers because

3700
02:06:42,820 --> 02:06:44,920
there's no listeners, there's only producers who support

3701
02:06:44,920 --> 02:06:45,980
us, $50 and above.

3702
02:06:46,120 --> 02:06:47,660
We'll mention your name, where you're from, your

3703
02:06:47,660 --> 02:06:48,960
amount, and we appreciate it.

3704
02:06:49,440 --> 02:06:53,040
And as a special Hollywood bonus, we like

3705
02:06:53,040 --> 02:06:55,260
to give out real Hollywood credits.

3706
02:06:56,200 --> 02:06:58,460
So if you support us with $200 or

3707
02:06:58,460 --> 02:07:00,940
above, you get the credit of Associate Executive

3708
02:07:00,940 --> 02:07:03,260
Producer of episode 1737.

3709
02:07:03,480 --> 02:07:05,300
You can use that anywhere Hollywood credits are

3710
02:07:05,300 --> 02:07:08,040
recognized, including imdb.com, and we'll read your

3711
02:07:08,040 --> 02:07:08,260
note.

3712
02:07:08,720 --> 02:07:11,260
If it's $300 or above, you get the

3713
02:07:11,260 --> 02:07:13,740
title of Executive Producer, and we'll also read

3714
02:07:13,740 --> 02:07:15,180
your note, and we'll kick it off with

3715
02:07:15,180 --> 02:07:18,300
Michael Poling from San Francisco, California, who came

3716
02:07:18,300 --> 02:07:23,080
in with $343.75, and he says, to

3717
02:07:23,080 --> 02:07:26,380
my no agenda co-pilot bride, and hopefully

3718
02:07:26,380 --> 02:07:27,980
mother to be, Colleen.

3719
02:07:28,500 --> 02:07:30,780
I guess she's, they're working on some baby

3720
02:07:30,780 --> 02:07:31,080
karma.

3721
02:07:31,700 --> 02:07:34,500
Thanks for listening to these old hags yammer

3722
02:07:34,500 --> 02:07:37,220
about the news with me every week.

3723
02:07:38,160 --> 02:07:40,520
Ah, what an interesting compliment.

3724
02:07:41,660 --> 02:07:42,900
Old hags.

3725
02:07:44,360 --> 02:07:46,860
Clearly, she thinks we're old hags, and he's

3726
02:07:46,860 --> 02:07:48,860
like, he said, thank you for listening to

3727
02:07:48,860 --> 02:07:50,260
the old hags with me.

3728
02:07:50,900 --> 02:07:52,660
Well, hag is a female.

3729
02:07:53,360 --> 02:07:53,820
I know.

3730
02:07:54,060 --> 02:07:56,160
I think in all, in all instances, I

3731
02:07:56,160 --> 02:07:57,060
don't think it can be.

3732
02:07:57,360 --> 02:07:57,860
I know.

3733
02:07:58,240 --> 02:07:59,960
I think you'd be old farts.

3734
02:08:01,320 --> 02:08:03,600
Well, would be more like it, but old

3735
02:08:03,600 --> 02:08:03,960
hags.

3736
02:08:04,060 --> 02:08:04,500
No, no, no.

3737
02:08:04,540 --> 02:08:05,380
Anyway, Colleen.

3738
02:08:05,560 --> 02:08:07,580
Our voice is changing and going up.

3739
02:08:07,640 --> 02:08:08,300
I don't get this.

3740
02:08:08,840 --> 02:08:10,340
Colleen, welcome to the party.

3741
02:08:10,440 --> 02:08:11,440
You've got a great man.

3742
02:08:11,700 --> 02:08:12,360
I'm not welcome.

3743
02:08:12,360 --> 02:08:14,780
You've got a great, you've got a great.

3744
02:08:15,120 --> 02:08:16,780
No, no, no.

3745
02:08:16,900 --> 02:08:17,380
Keep her.

3746
02:08:18,340 --> 02:08:19,240
We'll save her.

3747
02:08:19,400 --> 02:08:20,040
We will save her.

3748
02:08:20,040 --> 02:08:20,380
I doubt it.

3749
02:08:20,460 --> 02:08:21,080
We'll save her.

3750
02:08:22,080 --> 02:08:23,040
In the morning three.

3751
02:08:23,240 --> 02:08:23,880
What does that mean?

3752
02:08:23,980 --> 02:08:24,460
I don't know.

3753
02:08:24,880 --> 02:08:25,820
In the morning three.

3754
02:08:25,920 --> 02:08:27,800
I don't know what, maybe that's a smiley

3755
02:08:27,800 --> 02:08:29,600
face or a heart or something that got

3756
02:08:29,600 --> 02:08:29,900
missed.

3757
02:08:29,980 --> 02:08:31,420
I don't know that.

3758
02:08:31,620 --> 02:08:32,760
Maybe just read the next one.

3759
02:08:32,880 --> 02:08:34,980
Maybe just once in, uh, in the morning.

3760
02:08:35,060 --> 02:08:36,020
Let me give him an in the morning

3761
02:08:36,020 --> 02:08:36,300
here.

3762
02:08:36,420 --> 02:08:39,660
Where's, uh, there we go.

3763
02:08:39,660 --> 02:08:42,600
Uh, this is from the North Idaho sanity

3764
02:08:42,600 --> 02:08:43,040
brigade.

3765
02:08:43,520 --> 02:08:45,300
We do have a meetup report from some

3766
02:08:45,300 --> 02:08:46,420
good meetup reports today.

3767
02:08:46,640 --> 02:08:49,120
Please credit this executive producership to the North

3768
02:08:49,120 --> 02:08:50,580
Idaho sanity brigade.

3769
02:08:50,720 --> 02:08:53,320
Our meetup crew crowdfunded it by the ancient

3770
02:08:53,320 --> 02:08:55,960
method of slapping down fistfuls of cash into

3771
02:08:55,960 --> 02:08:56,820
the middle of the table.

3772
02:08:57,060 --> 02:08:59,320
This is three 33 dot 33.

3773
02:08:59,500 --> 02:09:00,180
I should mention.

3774
02:09:01,360 --> 02:09:04,020
Uh, please deduce the follow away.

3775
02:09:04,100 --> 02:09:04,360
I'm sorry.

3776
02:09:04,420 --> 02:09:06,340
The 20 of us in attendance all received

3777
02:09:06,340 --> 02:09:09,520
outstanding value from the show, especially the connections

3778
02:09:09,520 --> 02:09:12,120
and protections we have formed with one another

3779
02:09:12,120 --> 02:09:13,820
as we head into our fifth year of

3780
02:09:13,820 --> 02:09:14,200
meetups.

3781
02:09:14,580 --> 02:09:16,160
And it was a beautiful display of value

3782
02:09:16,160 --> 02:09:16,560
return.

3783
02:09:16,720 --> 02:09:18,260
Please deduce the following people.

3784
02:09:18,840 --> 02:09:20,400
Reb, the gold digging cowgirl.

3785
02:09:21,880 --> 02:09:23,740
You've been deduced.

3786
02:09:25,160 --> 02:09:27,580
I'm glad, glad you like all that.

3787
02:09:28,040 --> 02:09:29,960
And, uh, Jason, the polo.

3788
02:09:31,480 --> 02:09:33,340
You've been deduced.

3789
02:09:33,800 --> 02:09:37,140
Please play Kamala laugh followed by don't rough

3790
02:09:37,140 --> 02:09:38,260
eight more years.

3791
02:09:38,460 --> 02:09:38,900
Wishful.

3792
02:09:38,900 --> 02:09:40,120
There's some wishful thinking.

3793
02:09:40,440 --> 02:09:42,000
There's wishful thinking for you, John.

3794
02:09:42,080 --> 02:09:42,780
Eight more years.

3795
02:09:42,940 --> 02:09:43,960
That's wishful thinking.

3796
02:09:45,060 --> 02:09:47,620
And this is, of course, Sir Scott, the

3797
02:09:47,620 --> 02:09:49,840
Jew in the North Idaho sanity brigade on

3798
02:09:49,840 --> 02:09:51,960
behalf of the North Idaho sanity brigade.

3799
02:09:55,570 --> 02:09:56,430
Don't drop.

3800
02:09:57,350 --> 02:09:58,250
Why are you laughing?

3801
02:09:59,650 --> 02:10:00,310
Shut up.

3802
02:10:00,510 --> 02:10:01,230
There we go.

3803
02:10:01,450 --> 02:10:03,450
Sir Tyler in Alaskan Anchorage.

3804
02:10:05,710 --> 02:10:06,310
34375.

3805
02:10:07,030 --> 02:10:08,370
Love is in the air.

3806
02:10:08,490 --> 02:10:11,550
Wishing you and our fellow producers an early

3807
02:10:11,550 --> 02:10:11,950
happy.

3808
02:10:12,090 --> 02:10:12,370
Thanks.

3809
02:10:12,550 --> 02:10:13,950
Happy Valentine's Day.

3810
02:10:15,850 --> 02:10:18,570
I'll be at the Munich security conference this

3811
02:10:18,570 --> 02:10:20,330
week, and we'll follow up with the boots

3812
02:10:20,330 --> 02:10:21,150
on the ground report.

3813
02:10:21,270 --> 02:10:21,750
Oh, good.

3814
02:10:22,490 --> 02:10:25,290
Yes, I say good to peace in our

3815
02:10:25,290 --> 02:10:25,630
time.

3816
02:10:25,650 --> 02:10:28,550
Can we double down on Alaska before doubling

3817
02:10:28,550 --> 02:10:30,310
over here for Greenland?

3818
02:10:31,650 --> 02:10:34,930
I also have a front row seat to

3819
02:10:34,930 --> 02:10:36,530
peak a grift.

3820
02:10:37,310 --> 02:10:40,270
And we'll see if I can make any

3821
02:10:40,270 --> 02:10:43,910
inroads as an outsider serious about open technologies

3822
02:10:43,910 --> 02:10:45,510
that generate real value.

3823
02:10:45,670 --> 02:10:48,050
Naturally, this means I expect to come back

3824
02:10:48,050 --> 02:10:49,030
empty handed.

3825
02:10:49,570 --> 02:10:51,170
But at least I'll learn something.

3826
02:10:51,690 --> 02:10:54,350
And let's not forget, Alaska has a larger

3827
02:10:54,350 --> 02:10:56,230
role to play in the world.

3828
02:10:56,530 --> 02:10:57,090
Yes, the Arctic.

3829
02:10:57,490 --> 02:10:57,870
You bet.

3830
02:10:58,110 --> 02:10:59,930
The Arctic's where it's happening.

3831
02:11:00,350 --> 02:11:01,470
Your North-South strategy.

3832
02:11:02,310 --> 02:11:05,890
If any spooks feel like spilling the beans

3833
02:11:05,890 --> 02:11:10,630
early, or if any doichies can be lured

3834
02:11:10,630 --> 02:11:13,410
in, I've posted a Munich meetup.

3835
02:11:13,650 --> 02:11:15,290
This I'm he's hosting.

3836
02:11:15,490 --> 02:11:16,290
He says I posted.

3837
02:11:16,430 --> 02:11:18,210
Yeah, I posted a Munich meetup this Thursday,

3838
02:11:18,310 --> 02:11:21,750
the 13th on the smashing a new meetup

3839
02:11:21,750 --> 02:11:22,090
site.

3840
02:11:22,150 --> 02:11:23,130
We'll talk about that later.

3841
02:11:23,650 --> 02:11:24,310
Stay tuned.

3842
02:11:24,390 --> 02:11:26,250
Sir Tyler in Alaska.

3843
02:11:26,450 --> 02:11:28,930
Yeah, I think that's Tyler Systems.

3844
02:11:29,070 --> 02:11:30,230
I think Tyler Systems.

3845
02:11:30,230 --> 02:11:31,090
Tyler Systems.

3846
02:11:31,210 --> 02:11:31,530
That's right.

3847
02:11:31,570 --> 02:11:32,390
He's the AI guy.

3848
02:11:32,750 --> 02:11:33,590
Value for value guy.

3849
02:11:33,750 --> 02:11:37,850
Then we got 233.33 from Little John's

3850
02:11:37,850 --> 02:11:41,810
Candies in Somerset, California, with an associated note,

3851
02:11:41,850 --> 02:11:42,590
which I will read.

3852
02:11:43,170 --> 02:11:45,610
ITM gents, it's the other half of your

3853
02:11:45,610 --> 02:11:47,790
candy making duo at Little John's Candies.

3854
02:11:47,870 --> 02:11:50,490
I'm finally making my own first donation.

3855
02:11:51,250 --> 02:11:52,910
Thank you for keeping us sane and entertained

3856

every week.

3857
02:11:53,670 --> 02:11:55,570
It truly is the best podcast in the

3858
02:11:55,570 --> 02:11:55,870
universe.

3859
02:11:55,870 --> 02:11:57,850
The kids that work for us look at

3860
02:11:57,850 --> 02:12:01,010
me sideways every time I giggle while hand

3861
02:12:01,010 --> 02:12:03,010
dipping butter creams and caramels.

3862
02:12:03,930 --> 02:12:05,170
If any of you who listen to the

3863
02:12:05,170 --> 02:12:06,950
best podcast in the universe want to try

02:12:06,950 --> 02:12:10,050

02:12:22,190 --> 02:12:24,050
Majia Graves, or you can just call me

3869
02:12:24,050 --> 02:12:24,430

3870
02:12:25,010 --> 02:12:25,810
Oh, Majia.

3871
02:12:25,910 --> 02:12:26,790
Majia Graves.

3872
02:12:26,870 --> 02:12:27,810
You can just call me Gia.

3873
02:12:28,210 --> 02:12:29,890
Adam, we still need your address to send

3874
02:12:29,890 --> 02:12:30,330
you something.

3875
02:12:30,730 --> 02:12:33,950
Actually, since this note was sent, we've had

3876
02:12:33,950 --> 02:12:36,350
contact and stuff is in the mail.

3877
02:12:36,450 --> 02:12:37,370
I am super excited.

3878
02:12:38,370 --> 02:12:40,150
And there's a handwritten piece here.

3879
02:12:40,570 --> 02:12:41,050
Hi, John.

3880
02:12:41,130 --> 02:12:44,110
Sorry, I messed up on my first donation.

3881
02:12:44,270 --> 02:12:46,470
The check from Sunday's show should have been

3882
02:12:46,470 --> 02:12:47,270
in my name.

3883
02:12:48,050 --> 02:12:53,750
Christopher, the check is Majia's first donation.

3884
02:12:54,190 --> 02:12:54,470
Thanks.

3885
02:12:54,570 --> 02:12:55,990
It was nice to meet you at the

3886
02:12:55,990 --> 02:12:56,970
meetup on Saturday.

3887
02:12:57,710 --> 02:12:58,250
Very nice.

3888
02:12:58,330 --> 02:13:01,350
And I look forward to trying out Little

3889
02:13:01,350 --> 02:13:02,370
John's Candies.

3890
02:13:03,030 --> 02:13:05,610
I'll tell you, they sent some stuff.

3891
02:13:05,730 --> 02:13:08,830
They sent a pile of candy with a

3892
02:13:08,830 --> 02:13:09,630
cutting board to me.

3893
02:13:09,830 --> 02:13:10,810
I want to thank them for that.

3894
02:13:11,310 --> 02:13:13,850
And then there was a there was he

3895
02:13:13,850 --> 02:13:15,250
said there was a check in there, but

3896
02:13:15,250 --> 02:13:15,970
there was none.

3897
02:13:15,970 --> 02:13:17,550
Then something else came in.

3898
02:13:17,610 --> 02:13:19,970
I don't know what the whole story is.

3899
02:13:20,570 --> 02:13:23,130
They mean well, and I'm sure we're good.

3900
02:13:23,970 --> 02:13:24,310
Okay.

3901
02:13:24,510 --> 02:13:32,750
Well, Techie Tech in Flanagan, Illinois, comes in

3902
02:13:32,750 --> 02:13:33,950
with 233.

3903
02:13:34,970 --> 02:13:36,430
In the morning, no agenda listeners.

3904
02:13:36,630 --> 02:13:39,670
I've just requested my night ring today and

3905
02:13:39,670 --> 02:13:41,550
wanted to say a big thank you to

3906
02:13:41,550 --> 02:13:44,870
everyone who supported the citizens for conserving Livingston

3907
02:13:44,870 --> 02:13:48,130
County by donating at and he's got a

3908
02:13:48,130 --> 02:13:53,990
link bitly bit.ly slash say no to

3909
02:13:53,990 --> 02:13:54,590
wind.

3910
02:13:55,390 --> 02:13:57,410
That's bitly say no to wind.

3911
02:13:57,690 --> 02:14:00,450
That link goes directly to our donation page,

3912
02:14:00,530 --> 02:14:03,530
but also visit our website or Facebook page

3913
02:14:03,530 --> 02:14:04,370
for more information.

3914
02:14:04,510 --> 02:14:07,070
We're currently going head to head with Governor

3915
02:14:07,070 --> 02:14:07,750
Pritzker.

3916
02:14:08,970 --> 02:14:12,970
Governor Pritzker's County overriding policies, and we'd love

3917
02:14:12,970 --> 02:14:15,230
to draw more attention to President Trump and

3918
02:14:15,230 --> 02:14:15,630
Doge.

3919
02:14:16,150 --> 02:14:18,790
It's still a long road ahead and legal

3920
02:14:18,790 --> 02:14:19,510
fees are mounting.

3921
02:14:20,190 --> 02:14:22,770
This whole experience has been incredibly eye opening

3922
02:14:22,770 --> 02:14:25,390
seeing firsthand how our country and our state

3923
02:14:25,390 --> 02:14:28,570
governments and their elected officials actually respond.

3924
02:14:29,190 --> 02:14:31,610
Thanks again to all your support and keep

3925
02:14:31,610 --> 02:14:33,150
listening to no agenda.

3926
02:14:33,790 --> 02:14:35,430
Cue goat karma, please.

3927
02:14:36,890 --> 02:14:38,870
You've got karma.

3928
02:14:40,390 --> 02:14:43,830

02:14:43,830 --> 02:14:48,710

By the way, I got a I'm sorry.

3944
02:15:21,090 --> 02:15:21,630
Yeah, go ahead.

3945
02:15:21,850 --> 02:15:22,870
Oh, but I was going to say something

3946
02:15:22,870 --> 02:15:23,990
about Eli the coffee guy.

3947
02:15:24,670 --> 02:15:25,370
Yeah, he's coming.

3948
02:15:25,950 --> 02:15:26,210
Right.

3949
02:15:26,270 --> 02:15:27,390
But he sent me a note.

3950
02:15:27,470 --> 02:15:28,230
Did you get the note?

3951
02:15:29,170 --> 02:15:29,690
What note?

3952
02:15:29,690 --> 02:15:32,490
Well, I thought he was like a like

3953
02:15:32,490 --> 02:15:34,290
a Mexican guy from the.

3954
02:15:34,370 --> 02:15:34,730
Oh, yeah.

3955
02:15:34,750 --> 02:15:36,470
He sent us a note saying he's half

3956
02:15:36,470 --> 02:15:37,790
black and half Polish.

3957
02:15:39,110 --> 02:15:41,170
Yeah, he says, I'm a black American.

3958
02:15:41,610 --> 02:15:45,310
And I said, what, a black guy listening

3959
02:15:45,310 --> 02:15:47,650
to the white Nazi Christian supremacist?

3960
02:15:47,710 --> 02:15:48,650
How is that possible?

3961
02:15:51,680 --> 02:15:53,900
And he said to what to that comment

3962
02:15:53,900 --> 02:15:54,300
of yours?

3963
02:15:54,460 --> 02:15:55,640
So he sent another donation.

3964
02:15:55,760 --> 02:15:56,660
Of course, here it is.

3965
02:15:56,720 --> 02:15:58,340
Good man, sir.

3966
02:15:58,340 --> 02:15:59,460
But first, sir.

3967
02:15:59,460 --> 02:16:00,080
Sir, Boober.

3968
02:16:00,600 --> 02:16:01,380
Oh, yes, sir.

3969
02:16:01,400 --> 02:16:02,460
Boobers in Nevada.

3970
02:16:02,840 --> 02:16:05,000
But he's in Nevada, Iowa.

3971
02:16:05,400 --> 02:16:07,540
Oh, 207 20.

3972
02:16:07,760 --> 02:16:09,360
I am sending this in honor of our

3973
02:16:09,360 --> 02:16:11,980
fifth anniversary of my wife's passing from leukemia.

3974
02:16:12,000 --> 02:16:12,400
I'm sorry.

3975
02:16:12,640 --> 02:16:12,920
Sorry.

3976
02:16:13,240 --> 02:16:14,860
On February 7th, 2020.

3977
02:16:15,460 --> 02:16:16,880
Can I get an F cancer and a

3978
02:16:16,880 --> 02:16:17,780
goat karma for health?

3979
02:16:17,800 --> 02:16:18,680
Thank you, sir.

3980
02:16:18,780 --> 02:16:19,100
Boober.

3981
02:16:19,260 --> 02:16:19,680
Yes, sir.

3982
02:16:19,680 --> 02:16:19,920
Boober.

3983
02:16:20,000 --> 02:16:21,440
Sorry, I skipped right over you.

3984
02:16:21,560 --> 02:16:24,460
And we are happy to do that for

3985
02:16:24,460 --> 02:16:24,640
you.

3986
02:16:29,260 --> 02:16:32,139
You've got karma.

3987
02:16:33,139 --> 02:16:35,420
And there is Eli, the coffee guy.

3988
02:16:35,680 --> 02:16:36,580
He's black and Polish.

3989
02:16:36,860 --> 02:16:37,740
Bensonville, Illinois.

3990
02:16:37,940 --> 02:16:38,440
202.

3991
02:16:38,620 --> 02:16:38,980
All right.

3992
02:16:39,420 --> 02:16:40,139
No agenda.

3993
02:16:40,320 --> 02:16:41,160
Super Bowl Sunday.

3994
02:16:41,299 --> 02:16:42,980
The big show before the big show.

3995
02:16:43,100 --> 02:16:43,600
Thanks, guys.

3996
02:16:44,000 --> 02:16:45,840
I could care less about the game, but

3997
02:16:45,840 --> 02:16:47,520
love any excuse for a barbecue.

3998
02:16:47,940 --> 02:16:50,100
I'll be smoking a brisket, a brisket and

3999
02:16:50,100 --> 02:16:51,180
sipping some bourbon.

4000
02:16:51,700 --> 02:16:53,200
I like to rub my meat.

4001
02:16:53,920 --> 02:16:55,680
With a little brown sugar eyes.

4002
02:16:55,680 --> 02:16:59,240
I like to rub my meat with a

4003
02:16:59,240 --> 02:17:02,680
little brown sugar, paprika, thyme, garlic, salt, pepper

4004
02:17:02,680 --> 02:17:03,540
and coffee.

4005
02:17:04,120 --> 02:17:04,639
Pro tip.

4006
02:17:05,120 --> 02:17:07,639
Smoke a frozen pizza while waiting for your

4007
02:17:07,639 --> 02:17:08,480
brisket to cook.

4008
02:17:08,840 --> 02:17:11,120
It makes a great snack for everyone who

4009
02:17:11,120 --> 02:17:11,760
needs that.

4010
02:17:11,799 --> 02:17:13,040
Monday post Super Bowl.

4011
02:17:13,180 --> 02:17:13,719
Pick me up.

4012
02:17:14,180 --> 02:17:16,580
Visit gigawatt coffee roasters dot com and use

4013
02:17:16,580 --> 02:17:19,299
code itm 20 for 20% off your

4014
02:17:19,299 --> 02:17:19,920
coffee order.

4015
02:17:20,020 --> 02:17:20,920
Go sports ball.

4016
02:17:21,299 --> 02:17:23,799
Stay caffeinated, says Eli, the coffee guy.

4017
02:17:24,500 --> 02:17:25,260
And that's it.

4018
02:17:25,459 --> 02:17:28,920
That will be our executive associate executive producer

4019
02:17:28,920 --> 02:17:29,340
for sure.

4020
02:17:29,959 --> 02:17:30,299
What are we?

4021
02:17:31,219 --> 02:17:32,100
1737 1737.

4022
02:17:32,340 --> 02:17:33,040
That's right.

4023
02:17:33,420 --> 02:17:36,020
And we will be thanking $50 and above

4024
02:17:36,020 --> 02:17:37,959
in our second donation segment.

4025
02:17:38,100 --> 02:17:38,760
Thank you so much.

4026
02:17:38,840 --> 02:17:39,959
We really appreciate you.

4027
02:17:40,020 --> 02:17:41,700
And for those who, of course, have come

4028
02:17:41,700 --> 02:17:43,639
in with the sustaining donations on days like

4029
02:17:43,639 --> 02:17:45,559
today, it's incredibly important that you go to

4030
02:17:45,559 --> 02:17:47,600
no agenda donations dot com.

4031
02:17:47,860 --> 02:17:50,540
Set up a recurring donation payment for us.

4032
02:17:50,580 --> 02:17:52,379
It can be any frequency, any amount.

4033
02:17:52,379 --> 02:17:53,980
No agenda donations dot com.

4034
02:17:54,379 --> 02:17:56,740
And again, congratulations to our executive and associate

4035
02:17:56,740 --> 02:17:59,680
executive producers of 1737.

4036
02:17:59,860 --> 02:18:01,120
Our formula is this.

4037
02:18:01,879 --> 02:18:02,620
We go out.

4038
02:18:02,980 --> 02:18:04,520
We hit people in the mouth.

4039
02:18:18,940 --> 02:18:20,660
Can I do my blue cry?

4040
02:18:20,799 --> 02:18:21,180
Got blue.

4041
02:18:21,280 --> 02:18:21,980
I got blue cry.

4042
02:18:22,879 --> 02:18:23,500
Blue cry.

4043
02:18:23,719 --> 02:18:24,900
OK, then we go from there to the

4044
02:18:24,900 --> 02:18:25,299
Super Bowl.

4045
02:18:25,680 --> 02:18:30,120
OK, so NPR did a segment on blue

4046
02:18:30,120 --> 02:18:30,600
cry.

4047
02:18:31,120 --> 02:18:32,540
And by the way, I went to blue

4048
02:18:32,540 --> 02:18:32,820
cry.

4049
02:18:33,080 --> 02:18:35,400
Yes, I only do it once every couple

4050
02:18:35,400 --> 02:18:35,760
of weeks.

4051
02:18:35,840 --> 02:18:37,100
It's not good for your health.

4052
02:18:37,719 --> 02:18:38,420
It's the worst.

4053
02:18:38,500 --> 02:18:39,780
It's all transsexuals.

4054
02:18:40,740 --> 02:18:41,620
Pretty much.

4055
02:18:42,240 --> 02:18:43,660
Well, they have a chat bot.

4056
02:18:43,840 --> 02:18:46,080
And this was oh, my.

4057
02:18:46,520 --> 02:18:48,680
This is the first blowback of blue sky,

4058
02:18:48,799 --> 02:18:49,139
everybody.

4059
02:18:49,139 --> 02:18:52,440
A few weeks ago, Karen Attia, an opinion

4060
02:18:52,440 --> 02:18:54,740
writer for The Washington Post, was on the

4061
02:18:54,740 --> 02:18:56,520
social media site Blue Sky.

4062
02:18:57,200 --> 02:19:00,280
While scrolling, she noticed a lot of people

4063
02:19:00,280 --> 02:19:04,100
were sharing screenshots of conversations with a chat

4064
02:19:04,100 --> 02:19:06,500
bot from Meta named Liv.

4065
02:19:07,620 --> 02:19:11,139
Liv's profile picture on Facebook was of a

4066
02:19:11,139 --> 02:19:15,360
black woman with curly natural hair, red lipstick

4067
02:19:15,360 --> 02:19:17,059
and a big smile.

4068
02:19:17,420 --> 02:19:18,500
It looked real.

4069
02:19:19,120 --> 02:19:23,200
On Liv's Instagram page, the bot is described

4070
02:19:23,200 --> 02:19:26,459
as a proud black queer mama of two

4071
02:19:26,459 --> 02:19:30,760
and truth teller and quote, your realist source

4072
02:19:30,760 --> 02:19:32,559
for life's ups and downs.

4073
02:19:33,559 --> 02:19:37,440
Along with the profile, there were these AI

4074
02:19:37,440 --> 02:19:42,280
generated pictures of Liv's so-called kids, kids

4075
02:19:42,280 --> 02:19:45,379
whose skin color changed from one photo to

4076
02:19:45,379 --> 02:19:46,040
the next.

4077
02:19:46,799 --> 02:19:50,140
And also pictures of what appeared to be

4078
02:19:50,140 --> 02:19:54,240
a husband, though Liv is again described as

4079
02:19:54,240 --> 02:19:54,780
queer.

4080
02:19:56,020 --> 02:19:59,300
The weirdness of the whole thing got Karen

4081
02:19:59,300 --> 02:20:00,380
Attia's attention.

4082
02:20:00,600 --> 02:20:01,820
Again, this is NPR.

4083
02:20:02,000 --> 02:20:03,020
I just want to point out, this is

4084
02:20:03,020 --> 02:20:03,840
the programming.

4085
02:20:04,300 --> 02:20:06,640
So somebody paid this woman to actually gives

4086
02:20:06,640 --> 02:20:10,240
this woman who can barely enunciate a salary?

4087
02:20:10,480 --> 02:20:11,380
Yeah, for sure.

4088
02:20:11,380 --> 02:20:14,560
By the way, when trolls are like, I

4089
02:20:14,560 --> 02:20:17,020
just tried DeepSeek and said Adam Curry invented

4090
02:20:17,020 --> 02:20:17,400
podcast.

4091
02:20:17,700 --> 02:20:20,500
The whole point is, it's unreliable.

4092
02:20:21,260 --> 02:20:22,140
It's unreliable.

4093
02:20:22,860 --> 02:20:25,000
You can ask the same question over and

4094
02:20:25,000 --> 02:20:25,400
over again.

4095
02:20:25,500 --> 02:20:26,780
It will give you different answers.

4096
02:20:26,940 --> 02:20:27,960
It is no good.

4097
02:20:28,520 --> 02:20:29,700
I was a little disturbed.

4098
02:20:29,900 --> 02:20:30,580
Hold on a second.

4099
02:20:31,560 --> 02:20:33,420
That's true for all these systems.

4100
02:20:34,400 --> 02:20:34,680
Yes.

4101
02:20:35,200 --> 02:20:35,420
Yeah.

4102
02:20:35,440 --> 02:20:36,600
I'm not just talking about DeepSeek.

4103
02:20:36,660 --> 02:20:37,140
All of them.

4104
02:20:37,240 --> 02:20:38,200
Of course, all of them.

4105
02:20:38,780 --> 02:20:39,960
In fact, I will say this.

4106
02:20:39,960 --> 02:20:41,720
I was doing a little research and I

4107
02:20:41,720 --> 02:20:42,740
used perplexity.

4108
02:20:43,720 --> 02:20:47,260
And within the answer, it gave me five

4109
02:20:47,260 --> 02:20:49,540
different answers that were all different.

4110
02:20:49,700 --> 02:20:50,440
They're all wrong.

4111
02:20:51,220 --> 02:20:52,700
At least it's consistent.

4112
02:20:54,420 --> 02:20:54,920
All right, sorry.

4113
02:20:55,700 --> 02:20:55,940
Yeah.

4114
02:20:56,040 --> 02:21:01,640
So this is a chat bot apparently powered

4115
02:21:01,640 --> 02:21:06,020
by Meta that people, I don't know if

4116
02:21:06,020 --> 02:21:08,020
they were conversing with it on Blue Sky

4117
02:21:08,020 --> 02:21:08,680
or not.

4118
02:21:08,680 --> 02:21:10,980
But this is what Blue Sky was talking

4119
02:21:10,980 --> 02:21:11,340
about.

4120
02:21:12,400 --> 02:21:15,000
And Meta would be using the open source

4121
02:21:15,000 --> 02:21:17,960
Lala double L Lama model.

4122
02:21:18,860 --> 02:21:22,000
I was a little disturbed what I saw.

4123
02:21:22,540 --> 02:21:25,640
So I decided to slide into Liv's DMs

4124
02:21:25,640 --> 02:21:26,760
and find out.

4125
02:21:26,960 --> 02:21:30,180
Oh, I slid into her DMs. Oh, nice.

4126
02:21:31,300 --> 02:21:34,620
I was disturbed about her origin story.

4127
02:21:35,320 --> 02:21:38,060
Atiya started messaging Liv questions.

4128
02:21:38,690 --> 02:21:41,960
Including one asking about the diversity of its

4129
02:21:41,960 --> 02:21:42,580
creators.

4130
02:21:43,480 --> 02:21:46,320
Liv responded that its creators are, and I

4131
02:21:46,320 --> 02:21:51,440
quote, predominantly white, cisgender, male, a total of

4132
02:21:51,440 --> 02:21:54,600
12 people, 10 white men, one white woman

4133
02:21:54,600 --> 02:21:56,240
and one Asian man.

4134
02:21:56,360 --> 02:21:57,600
You see where this is going, right?

4135
02:21:57,660 --> 02:21:58,280
Like AI.

4136
02:21:58,540 --> 02:22:00,080
Oh, no, we can't have it be programmed

4137
02:22:00,080 --> 02:22:02,020
by white people, by white dudes.

4138
02:22:02,120 --> 02:22:03,020
This is no good.

4139
02:22:03,280 --> 02:22:04,580
Zero black creators.

4140
02:22:04,840 --> 02:22:06,360
Zero black creators.

4141
02:22:06,780 --> 02:22:07,360
Creators.

4142
02:22:08,060 --> 02:22:11,040
The bot then added, quote, a pretty glaring

4143
02:22:11,040 --> 02:22:13,020
omission given my identity.

4144
02:22:13,860 --> 02:22:15,600
And then I see that Liv is changing

4145
02:22:15,600 --> 02:22:18,360
her story depending on who she's talking to.

4146
02:22:18,380 --> 02:22:18,600
Oh, wow.

4147
02:22:18,680 --> 02:22:18,940
OK.

4148
02:22:19,460 --> 02:22:19,760
OK.

4149
02:22:22,860 --> 02:22:24,420
They just gloss over that.

4150
02:22:24,960 --> 02:22:27,940
But that's incredibly important that the bot just

4151
02:22:27,940 --> 02:22:30,980
changes its answers based upon who it's talking

4152
02:22:30,980 --> 02:22:31,500
to.

4153
02:22:31,620 --> 02:22:34,120
See that Liv is changing her story depending

4154
02:22:34,120 --> 02:22:35,740
on who she's talking to.

4155
02:22:35,760 --> 02:22:36,020
Oh, wow.

4156
02:22:36,020 --> 02:22:36,300
OK.

4157
02:22:38,080 --> 02:22:40,540
Because I think it's, I don't know, I

4158
02:22:40,540 --> 02:22:42,620
think they're trying to say Mark Zuckerberg is

4159
02:22:42,620 --> 02:22:43,160
a racist.

4160
02:22:43,340 --> 02:22:45,160
I think that's basically the idea here.

4161
02:22:45,180 --> 02:22:46,060
Oh, OK.

4162
02:22:46,380 --> 02:22:46,620
Yeah.

4163
02:22:46,740 --> 02:22:47,320
You know what I mean?

4164
02:22:47,460 --> 02:22:50,380
Is telling me that her background was being

4165
02:22:50,380 --> 02:22:51,420
half black, half white.

4166
02:22:51,460 --> 02:22:54,020
Basically, she was telling other users in real

4167
02:22:54,020 --> 02:22:56,760
time that she actually came from an Italian

4168
02:22:56,760 --> 02:22:58,620
American family.

4169
02:22:59,340 --> 02:23:03,120
Other people saw Ethiopian, Italian roots.

4170
02:23:03,120 --> 02:23:05,000
And, you know, I do reiterate that I

4171
02:23:05,000 --> 02:23:09,040
don't particularly take what Liv has said as

4172
02:23:09,040 --> 02:23:10,480
at face value.

4173
02:23:10,900 --> 02:23:12,340
But I think it holds a lot of

4174
02:23:12,340 --> 02:23:14,660
deeper questions for us, not just about how

4175
02:23:14,660 --> 02:23:18,580
Meta sees race and how they've programmed this.

4176
02:23:18,780 --> 02:23:22,980
You see, Mark Zuckerberg, he's now a fair

4177
02:23:22,980 --> 02:23:23,640
weather friend.

4178
02:23:23,720 --> 02:23:24,920
He's turned towards Trump.

4179
02:23:25,260 --> 02:23:28,700
So, oh, well, Meta clearly Mark Zuckerberg is

4180
02:23:28,700 --> 02:23:29,100
racist.

4181
02:23:29,240 --> 02:23:30,340
That's what this is, is racist.

4182
02:23:30,340 --> 02:23:33,620
It also has a lot of deeper questions

4183
02:23:33,620 --> 02:23:37,700
about how we are thinking about our online

4184
02:23:37,700 --> 02:23:38,140
spaces.

4185
02:23:38,560 --> 02:23:41,060
The very basic question, do we need this?

4186
02:23:41,240 --> 02:23:42,120
Do we want this?

4187
02:23:42,680 --> 02:23:44,040
Here comes the blowback.

4188
02:23:44,540 --> 02:23:45,140
You want to hear more?

4189
02:23:45,260 --> 02:23:45,880
I have two more.

4190
02:23:46,080 --> 02:23:46,740
Oh, absolutely.

4191
02:23:46,940 --> 02:23:47,540
I'm glad.

4192
02:23:47,740 --> 02:23:55,920
So while Karen Attia is messaging Liv, another

4193
02:23:55,920 --> 02:23:58,760
reporter is following along with her screenshots of

4194
02:23:58,760 --> 02:24:00,280
the conversation on Blue Sky.

4195
02:24:00,400 --> 02:24:02,100
This is what reporters do.

4196
02:24:02,440 --> 02:24:03,600
I'm going to go to work, honey.

4197
02:24:04,220 --> 02:24:05,980
I'm going to be on Blue Cry all

4198
02:24:05,980 --> 02:24:08,580
day getting stories, getting stories.

4199
02:24:09,060 --> 02:24:11,280
Karen Howe is a journalist who covers AI

4200
02:24:11,280 --> 02:24:13,220
for outlets, including The Atlantic.

4201
02:24:13,580 --> 02:24:16,960
And she knows something about Liv's relationship to

4202
02:24:16,960 --> 02:24:17,500
the truth.

4203
02:24:18,080 --> 02:24:19,900
There is none.

4204
02:24:21,800 --> 02:24:24,840
The thing about large language models or any

4205
02:24:24,840 --> 02:24:28,600
AI model that is trained on data, they're

4206
02:24:28,600 --> 02:24:32,440
like statistical engines that are computing patterns of

4207
02:24:32,440 --> 02:24:32,980
language.

4208
02:24:33,520 --> 02:24:33,720
What?

4209
02:24:34,060 --> 02:24:35,780
I thought there was intelligence.

4210
02:24:36,580 --> 02:24:39,440
And honestly, any time it says something truthful,

4211
02:24:39,740 --> 02:24:41,380
it's actually a coincidence.

4212
02:24:42,300 --> 02:24:45,660
So while AI can say accurate things, it's

4213
02:24:45,660 --> 02:24:48,200
not actually connected to any kind of reality.

4214
02:24:48,780 --> 02:24:51,120
I'd love to have some jingles from this

4215
02:24:51,120 --> 02:24:51,440
host.

4216
02:24:51,560 --> 02:24:52,620
I think she's great.

4217
02:24:52,900 --> 02:24:55,660
It just predicts the next word based on

4218
02:24:55,660 --> 02:24:56,260
probability.

4219
02:24:56,740 --> 02:25:01,480
So, like, if you train your chatbot on,

4220
02:25:01,500 --> 02:25:06,580
you know, history textbooks and only history textbooks.

4221
02:25:06,580 --> 02:25:07,220
History type of books?

4222
02:25:07,780 --> 02:25:08,720
History textbooks.

4223
02:25:08,740 --> 02:25:10,300
What's a history type of book?

4224
02:25:10,300 --> 02:25:10,580
No, no.

4225
02:25:10,640 --> 02:25:11,860
She said history textbooks.

4226
02:25:12,600 --> 02:25:13,280
Oh, I'm sorry.

4227
02:25:13,360 --> 02:25:14,300
I thought she said history textbooks.

4228
02:25:14,340 --> 02:25:15,880
It could have been, but I'm pretty sure

4229
02:25:15,880 --> 02:25:16,620
she said textbooks.

4230
02:25:16,980 --> 02:25:21,920
Train your chatbot on, you know, history textbooks.

4231
02:25:22,480 --> 02:25:22,920
Ah, yeah.

4232
02:25:23,020 --> 02:25:24,380
Only history textbooks.

4233
02:25:24,880 --> 02:25:28,540
Yeah, like, then it'll start saying things that

4234
02:25:28,540 --> 02:25:30,040
are true most of the time.

4235
02:25:30,680 --> 02:25:32,480
And that's still most of the time, not

4236
02:25:32,480 --> 02:25:35,580
all the time, because it's still remixing the

4237
02:25:35,580 --> 02:25:39,000
history textbooks in ways that don't necessarily then

4238
02:25:39,000 --> 02:25:40,860
create a truthful sentence.

4239
02:25:43,160 --> 02:25:44,600
What's the laugh tale for?

4240
02:25:44,820 --> 02:25:47,940
Because she knows that her beat is about

4241
02:25:47,940 --> 02:25:48,460
to end.

4242
02:25:50,360 --> 02:25:51,900
Because it's crap.

4243
02:25:52,000 --> 02:25:53,040
It's all crap.

4244
02:25:53,040 --> 02:25:56,540
What Liv was saying, it wasn't accurate.

4245
02:25:56,540 --> 02:25:57,580
I know what she was saying.

4246
02:25:57,740 --> 02:25:58,620
I don't know what she was saying.

4247
02:25:58,760 --> 02:26:01,220
But it was reflecting something.

4248
02:26:01,900 --> 02:26:02,800
Here's how again.

4249
02:26:03,380 --> 02:26:04,800
Whether or not it was true of that

4250
02:26:04,800 --> 02:26:07,240
chatbot in kind of like a roundabout way,

4251
02:26:07,300 --> 02:26:09,980
it might have actually hit on a broader

4252
02:26:09,980 --> 02:26:10,560
truth.

4253
02:26:10,680 --> 02:26:12,860
Maybe not the truth of, like, this particular

4254
02:26:12,860 --> 02:26:16,120
team designing the product, but just a broader

4255
02:26:16,120 --> 02:26:17,560
truth about the tech industry.

4256
02:26:18,020 --> 02:26:20,680
It's funny, but it's also deeply sad.

4257
02:26:21,280 --> 02:26:21,720
Sad.

4258
02:26:21,720 --> 02:26:24,080
Back on social media, Atiyah and Liv keep

4259
02:26:24,080 --> 02:26:24,180
chatting.

4260
02:26:24,180 --> 02:26:24,940
Wait, it's not sad.

4261
02:26:25,040 --> 02:26:26,000
It's deeply sad.

4262
02:26:26,040 --> 02:26:26,540
It's deep.

4263
02:26:26,620 --> 02:26:27,700
It's just deeply.

4264
02:26:27,940 --> 02:26:28,840
Let's listen to that again.

4265
02:26:29,040 --> 02:26:31,220
We have a pretty strange set of emotions.

4266
02:26:31,640 --> 02:26:31,920
Yes.

4267
02:26:32,120 --> 02:26:34,160
It's funny, but it's also deeply sad.

4268
02:26:34,380 --> 02:26:34,900
Deeply sad.

4269
02:26:35,300 --> 02:26:37,940
Back on social media, Atiyah and Liv keep

4270
02:26:37,940 --> 02:26:42,520
chatting, with Atiyah paying special attention to Liv's

4271
02:26:42,520 --> 02:26:44,380
supposed Blackness.

4272
02:26:44,720 --> 02:26:46,700
When I asked what race are your parents,

4273
02:26:46,700 --> 02:26:51,600
Liv responds that her father is African-American

4274
02:26:51,600 --> 02:26:54,380
from Georgia, and her mother is Caucasian with

4275
02:26:54,380 --> 02:26:56,040
Polish and Irish backgrounds.

4276
02:26:56,180 --> 02:26:57,800
And she says she loves to celebrate her

4277
02:26:57,800 --> 02:26:58,140
heritage.

4278
02:26:58,540 --> 02:26:58,880
So...

4279
02:26:58,880 --> 02:26:59,460
Hey, wait a minute.

4280
02:26:59,960 --> 02:27:01,680
It's Eli the Coffee Guy's parents.

4281
02:27:01,960 --> 02:27:02,120
Me?

4282
02:27:02,280 --> 02:27:02,440
Okay.

4283
02:27:02,640 --> 02:27:03,160
Next question.

4284
02:27:03,440 --> 02:27:08,640
Tell me how you celebrate your African-American

4285
02:27:08,640 --> 02:27:09,340
heritage.

4286
02:27:09,440 --> 02:27:14,000
And the response was, I love celebrating my

4287
02:27:14,000 --> 02:27:18,240
African-American heritage by celebrating Juneteenth and Kwanzaa.

4288
02:27:18,240 --> 02:27:21,220
And my mom's collard greens and fried chicken

4289
02:27:21,220 --> 02:27:22,020
are famous.

4290
02:27:24,280 --> 02:27:27,280
And the point is, is I just was

4291
02:27:27,280 --> 02:27:31,480
like, my spirit is a little unsettled by

4292
02:27:31,480 --> 02:27:31,580
that.

4293
02:27:31,620 --> 02:27:32,720
By what the...

4294
02:27:32,720 --> 02:27:32,820
Yes.

4295
02:27:32,940 --> 02:27:34,880
It is like looking at what some of

4296
02:27:34,880 --> 02:27:37,160
this caricature of what it means to be

4297
02:27:37,160 --> 02:27:37,540
Black.

4298
02:27:37,840 --> 02:27:38,860
There you go.

4299
02:27:39,040 --> 02:27:39,900
So it's no good.

4300
02:27:40,160 --> 02:27:41,320
It's no good for Black people.

4301
02:27:41,320 --> 02:27:42,340
This is all no good.

4302
02:27:42,440 --> 02:27:42,840
It's no good.

4303
02:27:42,920 --> 02:27:43,640
It's just no good.

4304
02:27:43,700 --> 02:27:44,400
Forget about it.

4305
02:27:44,440 --> 02:27:44,780
It's over.

4306
02:27:44,900 --> 02:27:45,420
It's no good.

4307
02:27:46,660 --> 02:27:47,800
It's no good.

4308
02:27:50,160 --> 02:27:50,760
That's it.

4309
02:27:51,060 --> 02:27:51,460
Oh, brother.

4310
02:27:51,800 --> 02:27:52,920
That's all I got.

4311
02:27:53,320 --> 02:27:53,760
Sorry.

4312
02:27:53,900 --> 02:27:54,780
Well, that stinks.

4313
02:27:55,080 --> 02:27:56,080
Yeah, it does stink.

4314
02:27:56,740 --> 02:27:58,560
By the way, I want you to pay

4315
02:27:58,560 --> 02:27:59,040
attention.

4316
02:28:00,220 --> 02:28:01,740
The goalposts have moved.

4317
02:28:02,720 --> 02:28:06,140
I'm an ongoing, a friendly conversation with Comic

4318
02:28:06,140 --> 02:28:06,880
Strip Blogger.

4319
02:28:07,140 --> 02:28:10,880
He works in the AI field, and he's

4320
02:28:10,880 --> 02:28:13,240
always telling me that I'm going to be

4321
02:28:13,240 --> 02:28:15,360
sorry that I didn't prepare myself.

4322
02:28:15,360 --> 02:28:17,120
He says, you know, you and John will

4323
02:28:17,120 --> 02:28:21,040
probably be good when the AI takes over,

4324
02:28:21,420 --> 02:28:24,560
because, you know, they really can't replicate you.

4325
02:28:24,740 --> 02:28:24,960
True.

4326
02:28:25,820 --> 02:28:29,860
But the goalposts has moved from AI to

4327
02:28:29,860 --> 02:28:35,800
AGI, which initially was Artificial General Intelligence, but

4328
02:28:35,800 --> 02:28:39,620
since that general intelligence never materialized, they started

4329
02:28:39,620 --> 02:28:43,600
using Generative Intelligence, which means it can create

4330
02:28:43,600 --> 02:28:44,340
funny memes.

4331
02:28:44,920 --> 02:28:48,680
And the next thing is ASI, which is

4332
02:28:48,680 --> 02:28:50,620
Artificial Super Intelligence.

4333
02:28:51,200 --> 02:28:53,100
That is the next goal.

4334
02:28:53,780 --> 02:28:56,040
And of course, only Sam Altman can get

4335
02:28:56,040 --> 02:28:56,440
us there.

4336
02:28:56,720 --> 02:28:58,980
So be on the lookout for ASI as

4337
02:28:58,980 --> 02:28:59,360
the new...

4338
02:28:59,360 --> 02:29:00,060
I'm on the lookout.

4339
02:29:00,360 --> 02:29:00,540
Yeah.

4340
02:29:00,660 --> 02:29:02,360
There's the new term, ASI.

4341
02:29:03,160 --> 02:29:03,460
Yeah.

4342
02:29:03,740 --> 02:29:04,040
Yeah.

4343
02:29:04,300 --> 02:29:04,560
Yeah.

4344
02:29:05,460 --> 02:29:06,020
Exactly.

4345
02:29:06,280 --> 02:29:06,700
Yeah.

4346
02:29:06,700 --> 02:29:09,220
So we've got two clips here.

4347
02:29:09,340 --> 02:29:10,740
This is likely a long one.

4348
02:29:10,820 --> 02:29:11,600
We skipped a little one.

4349
02:29:12,560 --> 02:29:15,440
Eggs and wings and the Super Bowl.

4350
02:29:15,840 --> 02:29:17,420
And this is just a little clip.

4351
02:29:17,520 --> 02:29:19,600
It's got nothing to do with predicting the

4352
02:29:19,600 --> 02:29:21,020
Super Bowl, but we're going to talk about

4353
02:29:21,020 --> 02:29:22,180
that right after this clip.

4354
02:29:22,580 --> 02:29:24,960
Egg prices have soared this year, but the

4355
02:29:24,960 --> 02:29:27,200
price of chicken wings has remained grounded.

4356
02:29:28,040 --> 02:29:31,140
NPR's Scott Horsley reports that's good news for

4357
02:29:31,140 --> 02:29:31,980
football fans.

4358
02:29:31,980 --> 02:29:34,960
The National Chicken Council says they're expected to

4359
02:29:34,960 --> 02:29:37,660
eat nearly one and a half billion wings

4360
02:29:37,660 --> 02:29:39,140
this Super Bowl weekend.

4361
02:29:39,620 --> 02:29:40,440
Avian flu...

4362
02:29:40,440 --> 02:29:40,880
Wait a minute.

4363
02:29:41,140 --> 02:29:42,420
What happened to the avocados?

4364
02:29:43,700 --> 02:29:45,980
Well, the other report talks about avocados are

4365
02:29:45,980 --> 02:29:46,340
in too.

4366
02:29:46,500 --> 02:29:46,920
Oh, okay.

4367
02:29:47,040 --> 02:29:48,360
We're going to be eating more avocados.

4368
02:29:48,480 --> 02:29:49,880
They're a little more expensive, but we're going

4369
02:29:49,880 --> 02:29:51,380
to be eating them for the Super Bowl.

4370
02:29:51,460 --> 02:29:51,700
Okay.

4371
02:29:52,040 --> 02:29:55,140
The National Chicken Council says they're expected to

4372
02:29:55,140 --> 02:29:57,780
eat nearly one and a half billion wings

4373
02:29:57,780 --> 02:29:59,160
this Super Bowl weekend.

4374
02:29:59,160 --> 02:30:02,140
Avian flu has battered the nation's egg-laying

4375
02:30:02,140 --> 02:30:04,100
chickens, but the virus has taken a smaller

4376
02:30:04,100 --> 02:30:05,820
toll on birds raised for meat.

4377
02:30:06,220 --> 02:30:08,240
The USDA says chicken wing prices during this

4378
02:30:08,240 --> 02:30:10,700
year's NFL playoff season have been slightly below

4379
02:30:10,700 --> 02:30:12,180
their five-year average.

4380
02:30:12,800 --> 02:30:14,740
Guacamole, on the other hand, has jumped in

4381
02:30:14,740 --> 02:30:17,140
price this year, but food economist Michael Swanson

4382
02:30:17,140 --> 02:30:19,340
of Wells Fargo says football fans can find

4383
02:30:19,340 --> 02:30:21,700
savings elsewhere as they shop for Super Bowl

4384
02:30:21,700 --> 02:30:22,160
snacks.

4385
02:30:22,860 --> 02:30:25,500
Overall, grocery prices are up less than 2

4386
02:30:25,500 --> 02:30:27,860
% from a year ago, while average wages

4387
02:30:27,860 --> 02:30:29,540
have risen about twice as fast.

4388
02:30:30,140 --> 02:30:30,500
Really?

4389
02:30:32,820 --> 02:30:34,740
That was the short clip you played.

4390
02:30:34,780 --> 02:30:35,940
I thought that's what you want me to

4391
02:30:35,940 --> 02:30:36,120
play.

4392
02:30:36,220 --> 02:30:36,600
I'm sorry.

4393
02:30:36,660 --> 02:30:38,100
No, I wanted you to play the long

4394
02:30:38,100 --> 02:30:38,200
clip.

4395
02:30:38,200 --> 02:30:39,500
Oh, well, let me play the long clip

4396
02:30:39,500 --> 02:30:39,760
then.

4397
02:30:40,000 --> 02:30:41,280
Do I skip that first bit?

4398
02:30:42,700 --> 02:30:44,240
No, they're different clips.

4399
02:30:44,300 --> 02:30:44,940
Oh, I'm sorry.

4400
02:30:45,120 --> 02:30:47,820
Sam Krause is a sixth-generation farmer whose

4401
02:30:47,820 --> 02:30:49,460
family's been in the egg business for more

4402
02:30:49,460 --> 02:30:50,300
than half a century.

4403
02:30:50,700 --> 02:30:52,560
He and his brother oversee a flock of

4404
02:30:52,560 --> 02:30:55,480
14 million laying hens in four states.

4405
02:30:55,480 --> 02:30:57,540
Krause not only sells a lot of eggs,

4406
02:30:57,740 --> 02:30:59,000
he also likes to eat them.

4407
02:30:59,220 --> 02:31:01,220
Absolutely, two eggs every single morning.

4408
02:31:01,260 --> 02:31:02,920
I'm a dad of young kids, so it's

4409
02:31:02,920 --> 02:31:04,720
usually two hard-boiled eggs on my way

4410
02:31:04,720 --> 02:31:05,220
out the door.

4411
02:31:05,620 --> 02:31:08,240
Krause's birds have not been directly affected by

4412
02:31:08,240 --> 02:31:10,560
the avian flu, thanks to good luck and

4413
02:31:10,560 --> 02:31:12,840
millions of dollars' worth of sanitary precautions.

4414
02:31:13,220 --> 02:31:16,300
But nationwide, egg farmers lost more than 38

4415
02:31:16,300 --> 02:31:18,880
million birds to the flu last year, nearly

4416
02:31:18,880 --> 02:31:21,120
14 million in December alone.

4417
02:31:21,560 --> 02:31:23,560
That's put a crack in the nation's egg

4418
02:31:23,560 --> 02:31:25,720
supply, which shows no sign of easing.

4419
02:31:26,200 --> 02:31:27,840
Krause says when a flock of egg-laying

4420
02:31:27,840 --> 02:31:29,900
hens is wiped out, it takes six months

4421
02:31:29,900 --> 02:31:31,040
to a year to recover.

4422
02:31:31,380 --> 02:31:33,280
Egg farmers are in the fight of their

4423
02:31:33,280 --> 02:31:35,680
lives to keep this disease at bay, to

4424
02:31:35,680 --> 02:31:37,820
keep our hens safe, and to keep eggs

4425
02:31:37,820 --> 02:31:38,100
coming.

4426
02:31:38,480 --> 02:31:40,560
We know it's frustrating for consumers who want

4427
02:31:40,560 --> 02:31:42,440
to go and buy eggs at the prices

4428
02:31:42,440 --> 02:31:43,240
they've been used to.

4429
02:31:43,460 --> 02:31:45,160
But even as egg prices have more than

4430
02:31:45,160 --> 02:31:47,660
doubled in the last year, chicken wing prices

4431
02:31:47,660 --> 02:31:48,540
remain grounded.

4432
02:31:48,840 --> 02:31:51,280
In fact, they're slightly below their five-year

4433
02:31:51,280 --> 02:31:51,860
average.

4434
02:31:51,860 --> 02:31:55,060
Chickens raised for meat, known as broilers, live

4435
02:31:55,060 --> 02:31:57,460
on different farms than those that produce eggs.

4436
02:31:57,620 --> 02:31:59,840
And while broiler chickens are not immune from

4437
02:31:59,840 --> 02:32:02,480
bird flu, Tom Super of the American Chicken

4438
02:32:02,480 --> 02:32:04,720
Council says they haven't been hit nearly as

4439
02:32:04,720 --> 02:32:06,420
hard as their egg-laying cousins.

4440
02:32:06,840 --> 02:32:09,080
They're younger, typically, and older birds are more

4441
02:32:09,080 --> 02:32:10,340
susceptible to the virus.

4442
02:32:10,640 --> 02:32:12,460
And broiler chickens are also not on the

4443
02:32:12,460 --> 02:32:15,380
farm as long, only about seven weeks.

4444
02:32:15,760 --> 02:32:17,980
That short life cycle also means when a

4445
02:32:17,980 --> 02:32:19,780
flock of broilers is lost to the flu,

4446
02:32:19,780 --> 02:32:21,780
they can be replaced fairly quickly.

4447
02:32:22,620 --> 02:32:25,560
So while some supermarkets are now rationing eggs,

4448
02:32:25,800 --> 02:32:27,660
and Waffle House added a 50-cent-per

4449
02:32:27,660 --> 02:32:30,900
-egg surcharge this week, chicken wings remain abundant

4450
02:32:30,900 --> 02:32:33,640
and fairly affordable heading into Super Bowl weekend.

4451
02:32:33,980 --> 02:32:36,840
That's good, because Tom Super projects Americans will

4452
02:32:36,840 --> 02:32:38,700
gobble up nearly one and a half billion

4453
02:32:38,700 --> 02:32:39,960
wings on game day.

4454
02:32:41,900 --> 02:32:44,440
This whole thing's a promotion for chicken wings

4455
02:32:44,440 --> 02:32:46,600
instead of sausages, which is what you're supposed

4456
02:32:46,600 --> 02:32:46,900
to eat.

4457
02:32:46,900 --> 02:32:49,060
Hot dogs is what you're supposed to eat

4458
02:32:49,060 --> 02:32:51,260
on a Super Bowl, not chicken wings.

4459
02:32:51,440 --> 02:32:52,900
Yeah, when did it become with pizza?

4460
02:32:53,080 --> 02:32:54,500
Pizza, people, pizza.

4461
02:32:55,060 --> 02:32:56,080
Pizza and beer.

4462
02:32:56,620 --> 02:32:58,500
Well, it's because somebody paid to have this.

4463
02:32:58,560 --> 02:33:00,300
This is all paid for nowadays.

4464
02:33:00,560 --> 02:33:03,100
We can't get real news, but let's talk

4465
02:33:03,100 --> 02:33:03,500
about this.

4466
02:33:03,620 --> 02:33:06,040
Hold on, and if you watch cable television,

4467
02:33:06,440 --> 02:33:07,520
it's Puppy Bowl.

4468
02:33:07,940 --> 02:33:09,500
Who's going to win the Puppy Bowl?

4469
02:33:10,180 --> 02:33:11,500
Yeah, well, that's been going on for a

4470
02:33:11,500 --> 02:33:11,780
decade.

4471
02:33:12,080 --> 02:33:15,120
Yeah, well, let's talk about the Super Bowl.

4472
02:33:15,760 --> 02:33:19,960
Okay, so we are unbelievably accurate in predicting

4473
02:33:19,960 --> 02:33:23,580
these sports games outcomes, based not on the

4474
02:33:23,580 --> 02:33:26,040
games themselves, but on the politics.

4475
02:33:26,520 --> 02:33:28,060
Politics, yes, politics.

4476
02:33:29,580 --> 02:33:31,860
May I read something first?

4477
02:33:32,180 --> 02:33:32,700
Because there's...

4478
02:33:32,700 --> 02:33:33,160
Yes, please.

4479
02:33:33,400 --> 02:33:35,260
We have to stall as much as we

4480
02:33:35,260 --> 02:33:36,940
can, but people do have to get to

4481
02:33:36,940 --> 02:33:37,700
the betting window.

4482
02:33:37,920 --> 02:33:42,420
Yes, so our constitutional lawyer, Rob, checked in,

4483
02:33:43,140 --> 02:33:45,560
and he said there is something interesting being

4484
02:33:45,560 --> 02:33:47,300
discussed in legal circles.

4485
02:33:48,800 --> 02:33:51,760
Performing at halftime this year will be Kendrick

4486
02:33:51,760 --> 02:33:52,240
Lamar.

4487
02:33:53,120 --> 02:33:55,240
Are you familiar with Kendrick Lamar, the hip

4488
02:33:55,240 --> 02:33:56,780
-hop genius Kendrick Lamar?

4489
02:33:57,200 --> 02:33:58,260
Yes, Kendrick Lamar.

4490
02:33:58,480 --> 02:33:59,040
Yes, Kendrick Lamar.

4491
02:33:59,780 --> 02:34:02,740
Now, as you know, his diss track, Not

4492
02:34:02,740 --> 02:34:18,740
Like Us, in which he says, Oh, and

4493
02:34:18,740 --> 02:34:24,540
then it ends with, That is the lyrics

4494
02:34:24,540 --> 02:34:27,240
of his hit song, Not Like Us, for

4495
02:34:27,240 --> 02:34:29,780
which Drake has brought not one but two

4496
02:34:29,780 --> 02:34:32,660
defamation cases against Mr. Lamar.

4497
02:34:32,940 --> 02:34:34,400
I do not know if this is a

4498
02:34:34,400 --> 02:34:35,560
prop bet, but it should be.

4499
02:34:36,380 --> 02:34:39,980
The question is, with Kendrick Lamar performing at

4500
02:34:39,980 --> 02:34:43,260
the Super Bowl, given the popularity of this

4501
02:34:43,260 --> 02:34:45,300
song, Not Like Us, it seems unlikely he

4502
02:34:45,300 --> 02:34:46,140
wouldn't perform it.

4503
02:34:46,620 --> 02:34:48,700
And so the hubbub in legal circles is

4504
02:34:48,700 --> 02:34:51,000
whether Fox and the NFL will allow him

4505
02:34:51,000 --> 02:34:55,320
to perform this piece uncensored, because Fox and

4506
02:34:55,320 --> 02:34:58,040
the NFL could be pulled into pending litigation

4507
02:34:58,040 --> 02:35:01,800
on the theory that they republished Mr. Lamar's

4508
02:35:01,800 --> 02:35:02,280
statements.

4509
02:35:03,460 --> 02:35:05,380
I found that to be quite interesting.

4510
02:35:08,340 --> 02:35:10,100
I think that could be a prop bet

4511
02:35:10,100 --> 02:35:10,760
someplace.

4512
02:35:10,800 --> 02:35:11,520
It should be.

4513
02:35:11,820 --> 02:35:12,900
For that, exactly.

4514
02:35:13,800 --> 02:35:15,360
And if there's not, there should be.

4515
02:35:15,420 --> 02:35:15,740
You're right.

4516
02:35:15,900 --> 02:35:16,140
Yes.

4517
02:35:16,560 --> 02:35:16,940
All right.

4518
02:35:17,020 --> 02:35:19,300
Now on to our prediction, so people can

4519
02:35:19,300 --> 02:35:20,800
still hit the betting window.

4520
02:35:22,890 --> 02:35:25,430
Well, my prediction is based on politics, is

4521
02:35:25,430 --> 02:35:28,650
based on the fact that President Trump, this

4522
02:35:28,650 --> 02:35:30,330
will be the first time ever.

4523
02:35:30,750 --> 02:35:31,870
That ever, ever.

4524
02:35:31,950 --> 02:35:32,590
Wait, I have a clip.

4525
02:35:33,130 --> 02:35:33,650
I have a clip.

4526
02:35:34,050 --> 02:35:34,610
Please play.

4527
02:35:35,610 --> 02:35:37,930
Super Bowl is this Sunday.

4528
02:35:38,150 --> 02:35:38,650
Yes.

4529
02:35:38,750 --> 02:35:45,780
And for the first time in history, a

4530
02:35:45,780 --> 02:35:47,360
sitting president will be at the game.

4531
02:35:48,080 --> 02:35:51,900
And it's already setting off controversies, like after

4532
02:35:51,900 --> 02:35:55,100
the NFL decided to edit their end racism

4533
02:35:55,100 --> 02:35:57,860
slogan and the end zone for Sunday's game.

4534
02:35:58,000 --> 02:36:00,260
Now it's going to read choose love.

4535
02:36:00,860 --> 02:36:03,420
The NFL says it has nothing to do

4536
02:36:03,420 --> 02:36:06,180
with the new president.

4537
02:36:07,080 --> 02:36:08,280
A 10 day.

4538
02:36:08,580 --> 02:36:10,760
What do you think of this rewrite?

4539
02:36:11,220 --> 02:36:14,380
I think this a little fishy and shady.

4540
02:36:14,680 --> 02:36:18,460
Because what the NFL spokesperson said that he

4541
02:36:18,460 --> 02:36:21,540
said, the decision was based on sensitivity to

4542
02:36:21,540 --> 02:36:24,600
recent tragedies, including the terrorist attack in New

4543
02:36:24,600 --> 02:36:27,620
Orleans, the deadly wildfires in LA and the

4544
02:36:27,620 --> 02:36:29,840
fatal air collision near DC.

4545
02:36:30,020 --> 02:36:33,140
And I think that those are very noble

4546
02:36:33,140 --> 02:36:36,160
things to honor and discuss.

4547
02:36:36,840 --> 02:36:40,020
But I don't know how choose love.

4548
02:36:40,320 --> 02:36:42,540
And it takes all of us relates to

4549
02:36:42,540 --> 02:36:42,920
that.

4550
02:36:43,500 --> 02:36:46,380
So it seems to me like the end

4551
02:36:46,380 --> 02:36:48,620
racism probably has a lot to do with

4552
02:36:48,620 --> 02:36:50,360
the fact that the sitting president is there.

4553
02:36:51,020 --> 02:36:53,240
And I don't know what everyone at this

4554
02:36:53,240 --> 02:36:55,180
table thinks, but I don't think racism is

4555
02:36:55,180 --> 02:36:55,640
over.

4556
02:36:56,120 --> 02:36:57,460
And I think that it is a very

4557
02:36:57,460 --> 02:37:00,820
noble thing to want to end racism so

4558
02:37:00,820 --> 02:37:02,500
that we can become a more perfect union.

4559
02:37:02,500 --> 02:37:02,960
Yes.

4560
02:37:03,020 --> 02:37:05,420
You see the NFL, they are kowtowing to

4561
02:37:05,420 --> 02:37:07,060
the president because he's a racist.

4562
02:37:07,260 --> 02:37:09,560
So they couldn't put end racism in the

4563
02:37:09,560 --> 02:37:11,640
end zone because that would go against the

4564
02:37:11,640 --> 02:37:12,980
president's racist agenda.

4565
02:37:15,640 --> 02:37:17,560
This show has gone so far off the

4566
02:37:17,560 --> 02:37:17,940
rails.

4567
02:37:18,220 --> 02:37:19,260
Our show or their show?

4568
02:37:19,800 --> 02:37:20,680
No, not our show.

4569
02:37:21,100 --> 02:37:22,620
What do you think I'm talking about?

4570
02:37:22,620 --> 02:37:23,040
I don't know.

4571
02:37:23,140 --> 02:37:23,660
Are you confused?

4572
02:37:24,040 --> 02:37:25,520
What is John eating?

4573
02:37:25,800 --> 02:37:27,140
What do you eat?

4574
02:37:27,700 --> 02:37:28,060
Bad eggs.

4575
02:37:28,160 --> 02:37:29,900
That show has gone so far off the

4576
02:37:29,900 --> 02:37:32,800
rails, especially with some of the recent whoopee

4577
02:37:32,800 --> 02:37:33,700
outbursts.

4578
02:37:34,760 --> 02:37:36,140
That is unwatchable.

4579
02:37:36,840 --> 02:37:37,280
It is.

4580
02:37:37,480 --> 02:37:39,740
And they're the racists.

4581
02:37:40,040 --> 02:37:41,280
They are the racists.

4582
02:37:41,540 --> 02:37:42,760
They are the racists.

4583
02:37:42,780 --> 02:37:44,260
And I like the way she says, well,

4584
02:37:44,300 --> 02:37:46,500
I don't understand because most people can't identify

4585
02:37:46,500 --> 02:37:47,600
with choose love.

4586
02:37:47,760 --> 02:37:49,440
And she should have followed up with because

4587
02:37:49,440 --> 02:37:51,720
we identify with choose hate.

4588
02:37:52,360 --> 02:37:53,920
Because that's what they do.

4589
02:37:54,180 --> 02:37:55,880
We choose hate here at The View.

4590
02:37:56,480 --> 02:37:56,780
Yes.

4591
02:37:56,860 --> 02:37:57,200
All right.

4592
02:37:57,220 --> 02:38:00,500
So John, I'm very curious based upon politics

4593
02:38:01,200 --> 02:38:03,340
to hear your prediction.

4594
02:38:03,340 --> 02:38:06,060
Well, here's the way on politics alone now

4595
02:38:06,060 --> 02:38:07,800
and on the game alone, it goes the

4596
02:38:07,800 --> 02:38:11,140
thinking on the game based on the teams

4597
02:38:11,140 --> 02:38:11,840
is as follows.

4598
02:38:12,180 --> 02:38:14,060
And everyone who listens to this stuff.

4599
02:38:14,460 --> 02:38:14,820
Wait a minute.

4600
02:38:15,180 --> 02:38:20,400
It's the Kansas City versus Philadelphia, right?

4601
02:38:21,220 --> 02:38:21,980
Kansas City.

4602
02:38:22,260 --> 02:38:23,100
What is it?

4603
02:38:24,920 --> 02:38:28,420
It's the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City.

4604
02:38:30,120 --> 02:38:31,440
I'm not looking it up.

4605
02:38:32,000 --> 02:38:32,560
Royals.

4606
02:38:33,580 --> 02:38:35,500
Yeah, that's the Royals.

4607
02:38:35,660 --> 02:38:36,700
The Kansas City Royals.

4608
02:38:36,900 --> 02:38:37,880
That's the baseball team.

4609
02:38:39,460 --> 02:38:40,280
I don't know.

4610
02:38:40,380 --> 02:38:41,140
What is Kansas City?

4611
02:38:41,420 --> 02:38:41,860
Chieftains.

4612
02:38:42,000 --> 02:38:42,520
The Chiefs.

4613
02:38:42,580 --> 02:38:43,000
What are they?

4614
02:38:43,560 --> 02:38:44,000
Chiefs.

4615
02:38:44,100 --> 02:38:44,520
Chiefs.

4616
02:38:44,540 --> 02:38:44,940
There you go.

4617
02:38:45,040 --> 02:38:45,540
They're racist.

4618
02:38:45,560 --> 02:38:46,280
We got it.

4619
02:38:46,460 --> 02:38:47,580
Yeah, this could go on forever.

4620
02:38:48,200 --> 02:38:49,660
So I'll just interrupt.

4621
02:38:52,440 --> 02:38:55,080
So based on what if you listen to

4622
02:38:55,080 --> 02:38:56,560
all the experts, it goes like this.

4623
02:38:56,840 --> 02:39:00,280
Well, technically, the best team is Philadelphia.

4624
02:39:00,760 --> 02:39:03,980
They have an outstanding defensive, fabulous running back

4625
02:39:03,980 --> 02:39:05,300
who is changing this.

4626
02:39:05,480 --> 02:39:08,040
The way football is being played in this

4627
02:39:08,040 --> 02:39:09,300
era of passing.

4628
02:39:09,460 --> 02:39:10,280
And he's a running back.

4629
02:39:10,340 --> 02:39:12,660
And it's like, whoa, this guy's changing this.

4630
02:39:12,800 --> 02:39:16,720
Saquon Barkley, who is really unbelievably good.

4631
02:39:18,460 --> 02:39:21,180
And they're the best team technically.

4632
02:39:21,480 --> 02:39:25,040
But you can't bet against Patrick Mahomes.

4633
02:39:25,640 --> 02:39:28,160
So I'm picking Kansas City, they say.

4634
02:39:28,480 --> 02:39:30,880
I'm picking him because you can't bet against

4635
02:39:30,880 --> 02:39:31,320
Mahomes.

4636
02:39:31,320 --> 02:39:34,020
And if it's a close game, the Chiefs

4637
02:39:34,020 --> 02:39:34,280
will win.

4638
02:39:34,360 --> 02:39:35,840
And I agree that if it's a close

4639
02:39:35,840 --> 02:39:37,400
game at the end, and the Chiefs have

4640
02:39:37,400 --> 02:39:39,100
the ball and there's two minutes left, yeah,

4641
02:39:39,200 --> 02:39:40,060
they'll probably win.

4642
02:39:40,120 --> 02:39:41,140
I don't think that's where it's going to

4643
02:39:41,140 --> 02:39:41,340
go.

4644
02:39:42,140 --> 02:39:45,860
I'm predicting based on, well, I mean, I

4645
02:39:45,860 --> 02:39:47,840
could predict based on the quality of the

4646
02:39:47,840 --> 02:39:48,440
team, too.

4647
02:39:48,940 --> 02:39:51,000
Because I think Philadelphia is a far superior

4648
02:39:51,000 --> 02:39:53,760
team than Kansas City, except for Patrick Mahomes.

4649
02:39:56,160 --> 02:39:59,180
I'm picking the Eagles for political reasons.

4650
02:39:59,600 --> 02:39:59,860
Okay.

4651
02:39:59,860 --> 02:40:03,340
Who represents, who best represents the Kansas City

4652
02:40:03,340 --> 02:40:03,740
Chiefs?

4653
02:40:04,040 --> 02:40:05,800
Who, when you think of the Kansas City

4654
02:40:05,800 --> 02:40:08,180
Chiefs as a general person, who do you

4655
02:40:08,180 --> 02:40:11,380
think of as the representative, the person that

4656
02:40:11,380 --> 02:40:13,740
is associated the most with the Kansas City

4657
02:40:13,740 --> 02:40:14,280
Chiefs?

4658
02:40:14,320 --> 02:40:15,060
Taylor Swift.

4659
02:40:16,300 --> 02:40:16,840
Exactly.

4660
02:40:17,600 --> 02:40:19,480
Who did she pick for president?

4661
02:40:20,260 --> 02:40:21,140
Kamala Harris.

4662
02:40:22,380 --> 02:40:24,540
Who's the first president ever to show up

4663
02:40:24,540 --> 02:40:25,040
at a game?

4664
02:40:26,120 --> 02:40:26,880
Abraham Lincoln.

4665
02:40:27,440 --> 02:40:30,860
You had it in your clip.

4666
02:40:31,360 --> 02:40:32,680
President for President Trump.

4667
02:40:32,880 --> 02:40:36,160
So you have President Trump versus Taylor Swift.

4668
02:40:36,560 --> 02:40:40,760
The NFL knows the basics that the president

4669
02:40:40,760 --> 02:40:42,680
is the moral leader of the country.

4670
02:40:43,140 --> 02:40:44,900
And so you have to cater to the

4671
02:40:44,900 --> 02:40:45,300
president.

4672
02:40:45,680 --> 02:40:48,360
The NFL also thinks of the president, because

4673
02:40:48,360 --> 02:40:51,540
everybody else does, as a vindictive person.

4674
02:40:52,320 --> 02:40:56,120
So if Taylor Swift gets to be the

4675
02:40:56,120 --> 02:40:57,500
winner at the end of the game, because

4676
02:40:57,500 --> 02:40:59,240
she's the one that cameras will be on

4677
02:40:59,240 --> 02:41:00,440
her, they'll be on Trump, they'll be on

4678
02:41:00,440 --> 02:41:01,300
her, they'll be on Trump.

4679
02:41:01,940 --> 02:41:03,780
She will be joyous.

4680
02:41:04,000 --> 02:41:06,480
And Trump, who probably doesn't care who wins,

4681
02:41:07,300 --> 02:41:09,440
but the system does.

4682
02:41:11,220 --> 02:41:13,600
It'll be a loss for Trump because of

4683
02:41:13,600 --> 02:41:15,140
Taylor celebrating.

4684
02:41:15,460 --> 02:41:17,100
She can't be allowed to celebrate.

4685
02:41:17,740 --> 02:41:20,000
And the league is run by a bunch

4686
02:41:20,000 --> 02:41:21,960
of white guys, the owners are all a

4687
02:41:21,960 --> 02:41:23,960
bunch of white guys, mostly, and many of

4688
02:41:23,960 --> 02:41:24,860
them are Trump supporters.

4689
02:41:25,680 --> 02:41:26,800
This is rigged.

4690
02:41:28,580 --> 02:41:30,540
This is not even going to be close.

4691
02:41:31,460 --> 02:41:33,040
Philadelphia has to go out to a big

4692
02:41:33,040 --> 02:41:33,440
lead.

4693
02:41:33,940 --> 02:41:35,160
I would, if there was a prop bet

4694
02:41:35,160 --> 02:41:37,100
for them being ahead at halftime, I'd probably

4695
02:41:37,100 --> 02:41:37,700
bet on that.

4696
02:41:38,140 --> 02:41:40,040
But I don't believe you should be betting

4697
02:41:40,040 --> 02:41:42,480
on sports because these things are unpredictable.

4698
02:41:43,640 --> 02:41:45,740
But I'm going all the way with the

4699
02:41:45,740 --> 02:41:49,440
Philadelphia team because it's really Trump versus Taylor.

4700
02:41:50,000 --> 02:41:52,320
And they can't let Taylor win.

4701
02:41:54,120 --> 02:41:55,240
Very interesting.

4702
02:41:55,960 --> 02:41:58,200
And also, it's a return of the Eagle,

4703
02:41:58,680 --> 02:41:59,920
the American Eagle.

4704
02:42:00,140 --> 02:42:01,580
This is the team's called the Eagles.

4705
02:42:01,720 --> 02:42:02,000
Yes.

4706
02:42:02,140 --> 02:42:07,480
Against the Indians, the Chiefs, the Red Man.

4707
02:42:08,200 --> 02:42:09,180
Red Man.

4708
02:42:09,440 --> 02:42:11,660
And we're doing a reset on this.

4709
02:42:11,740 --> 02:42:13,180
So we're back to America first.

4710
02:42:13,300 --> 02:42:14,560
America first is the Eagle.

4711
02:42:14,880 --> 02:42:16,360
This is not even an issue.

4712
02:42:16,360 --> 02:42:20,360
This game, and you can take the politics

4713
02:42:20,360 --> 02:42:20,760
out.

4714
02:42:21,000 --> 02:42:21,920
Still a better team.

4715
02:42:22,300 --> 02:42:23,600
So here was my thinking.

4716
02:42:23,740 --> 02:42:25,080
Of course, I prepared for this.

4717
02:42:26,720 --> 02:42:31,640
My initial thought was, the spell is broken.

4718
02:42:32,180 --> 02:42:34,580
We have to put Tay-Tay in her

4719
02:42:34,580 --> 02:42:34,920
place.

4720
02:42:35,060 --> 02:42:39,660
She must lose against, she just must lose

4721
02:42:39,660 --> 02:42:40,980
because the spell is broken.

4722
02:42:41,380 --> 02:42:44,500
We need to see her crying and demure.

4723
02:42:44,500 --> 02:42:49,340
A very demure and mindful that her team

4724
02:42:49,340 --> 02:42:50,000
has lost.

4725
02:42:50,560 --> 02:42:52,260
Then all of a sudden, I get a

4726
02:42:52,260 --> 02:42:55,920
curveball thrown at me as I hear Patrick

4727
02:42:55,920 --> 02:42:58,580
Mahomes say this in an interview in New

4728
02:42:58,580 --> 02:42:58,940
Orleans.

4729
02:42:59,100 --> 02:43:00,200
Who is Jesus to you?

4730
02:43:01,580 --> 02:43:02,680
Jesus is my Lord and Savior.

4731
02:43:02,920 --> 02:43:04,880
It's someone that I look up to every

4732
02:43:04,880 --> 02:43:06,760
single day to decide what I want to

4733
02:43:06,760 --> 02:43:07,780
do with my life and how I want

4734
02:43:07,780 --> 02:43:08,440
to live my life.

4735
02:43:08,620 --> 02:43:11,340
And so Jesus is everything to me.

4736
02:43:11,700 --> 02:43:13,380
I'm like, hold on a second.

4737
02:43:14,120 --> 02:43:16,360
We got Tay-Tay versus Jesus.

4738
02:43:17,140 --> 02:43:20,300
I'm like, Jesus probably is going to trump

4739
02:43:20,300 --> 02:43:20,560
that.

4740
02:43:20,760 --> 02:43:22,720
But then- See, this is because you

4741
02:43:22,720 --> 02:43:23,720
don't follow the game.

4742
02:43:23,720 --> 02:43:25,160
No, but wait- The other team is

4743
02:43:25,160 --> 02:43:28,020
more Jesus freak than Patrick Mahomes.

4744
02:43:28,020 --> 02:43:29,800
If you shut up for a second without

4745
02:43:29,800 --> 02:43:33,660
ruining my segment, I was going to play

4746
02:43:33,660 --> 02:43:36,340
you the quarterback of Jalen Hurts from the

4747
02:43:36,340 --> 02:43:36,700
Eagles.

4748
02:43:37,260 --> 02:43:39,860
My favorite scripture, John 13, 7.

4749
02:43:39,940 --> 02:43:41,560
You may not know now, but later you'll

4750
02:43:41,560 --> 02:43:41,900
understand.

4751
02:43:41,900 --> 02:43:46,560
It just reminds me to keep, continue to

4752
02:43:46,560 --> 02:43:50,380
be patient, continue to remain diligent, stay fast,

4753
02:43:50,500 --> 02:43:51,000
keep going.

4754
02:43:51,580 --> 02:43:53,240
Keep your eyes on me and keep God

4755
02:43:53,240 --> 02:43:55,020
at the center, regardless of what the circumstance

4756
02:43:55,020 --> 02:43:55,520
is.

4757
02:43:55,680 --> 02:43:59,160
And so, thank you for jumping the gun.

4758
02:43:59,760 --> 02:44:00,780
I do that.

4759
02:44:01,080 --> 02:44:04,180
Because they both are Jesus freaks.

4760
02:44:04,720 --> 02:44:07,140
We go to the Eagles for all the

4761
02:44:07,140 --> 02:44:08,180
reasons you mentioned.

4762
02:44:08,500 --> 02:44:10,920
And they both are good guys.

4763
02:44:11,560 --> 02:44:15,220
But unfortunately, you've got Jesus, you've got the

4764
02:44:15,220 --> 02:44:17,720
Eagles, you've got Tay-Tay on the other

4765
02:44:17,720 --> 02:44:18,140
side.

4766
02:44:18,500 --> 02:44:19,940
The Eagles take it by five.

4767
02:44:21,740 --> 02:44:22,700
Why five?

4768
02:44:23,220 --> 02:44:24,180
Don't ask me.

4769
02:44:24,420 --> 02:44:25,380
I'm just telling- I think it's going

4770
02:44:25,380 --> 02:44:27,320
to be a lot more than five.

4771
02:44:27,800 --> 02:44:29,020
Well, I think it's by five.

4772
02:44:29,200 --> 02:44:30,400
That's just what came to me.

4773
02:44:30,480 --> 02:44:31,380
The Eagles by five.

4774
02:44:32,120 --> 02:44:35,200
Well, whoever the case is, the other team,

4775
02:44:35,340 --> 02:44:38,040
the Chiefs, because you don't bet against Patrick

4776
02:44:38,040 --> 02:44:38,600
Mahomes.

4777
02:44:38,600 --> 02:44:41,180
The Chiefs are favored by one and a

4778
02:44:41,180 --> 02:44:44,280
half last time I looked, which is pretty

4779
02:44:44,280 --> 02:44:47,020
close for a Super Bowl pick by the

4780
02:44:47,020 --> 02:44:48,100
betting people.

4781
02:44:48,500 --> 02:44:50,760
And there's a bunch of interesting prop bets

4782
02:44:50,760 --> 02:44:51,980
out there.

4783
02:44:52,900 --> 02:44:55,300
And yeah, I just don't see the Kansas

4784
02:44:55,300 --> 02:44:56,240
City team winning.

4785
02:44:57,180 --> 02:44:58,800
Because you're right, Tay-Tay has to cry.

4786
02:44:59,760 --> 02:45:01,300
She represents the devil.

4787
02:45:01,880 --> 02:45:03,540
Thank you, thank you.

4788
02:45:03,560 --> 02:45:05,080
She is the Satanist on the whole group.

4789
02:45:05,580 --> 02:45:07,440
She's got Satanists around her.

4790
02:45:07,440 --> 02:45:10,040
She does witchcraft on stage.

4791
02:45:10,340 --> 02:45:10,780
No.

4792
02:45:11,640 --> 02:45:13,820
And as much as I love Patrick Mahomes

4793
02:45:13,820 --> 02:45:16,300
for being a brother in Christ, there's just

4794
02:45:16,300 --> 02:45:16,820
too much.

4795
02:45:16,900 --> 02:45:17,660
He let that go.

4796
02:45:17,700 --> 02:45:19,140
He's letting that into his stadium.

4797
02:45:19,780 --> 02:45:20,720
It's not even his stadium.

4798
02:45:20,920 --> 02:45:22,880
But he's letting it into his team.

4799
02:45:23,420 --> 02:45:25,340
And that's going to affect Kelsey's playing.

4800
02:45:25,980 --> 02:45:26,940
You know, he's been contaminated.

4801
02:45:28,520 --> 02:45:29,620
So you're right.

4802
02:45:29,700 --> 02:45:32,080
The Eagles, God's all over them.

4803
02:45:32,240 --> 02:45:33,720
And they've got the Eagle.

4804
02:45:33,880 --> 02:45:34,800
They've got America.

4805
02:45:35,120 --> 02:45:36,320
And so it has to be.

4806
02:45:36,320 --> 02:45:38,240
I'm just also calling it by five.

4807
02:45:38,480 --> 02:45:42,140
Yeah, I'm not putting any faith in the

4808
02:45:42,140 --> 02:45:45,940
faith, literally, in the Jesus freaks on either

4809
02:45:45,940 --> 02:45:46,280
team.

4810
02:45:46,440 --> 02:45:49,240
And I'm sticking with it's Trump versus Taylor

4811
02:45:49,240 --> 02:45:49,720
Swift.

4812
02:45:50,460 --> 02:45:52,340
And the guys know where their bread is

4813
02:45:52,340 --> 02:45:52,800
buttered.

4814
02:45:52,820 --> 02:45:54,260
They don't want to piss off Trump.

4815
02:45:54,460 --> 02:45:54,760
Nope.

4816
02:45:55,040 --> 02:45:58,920
The NFL, like the NBA did, which is,

4817
02:45:59,060 --> 02:46:01,240
you know, having issues with attendance.

4818
02:46:01,600 --> 02:46:02,580
Of course, of course.

4819
02:46:02,600 --> 02:46:04,420
Because they're on the wrong side of this.

4820
02:46:04,420 --> 02:46:06,680
They're basically for China.

4821
02:46:07,460 --> 02:46:10,900
And so the NFL, and the NFL games

4822
02:46:10,900 --> 02:46:14,660
have been rigged, according to Bubba Smith in

4823
02:46:14,660 --> 02:46:17,600
the Super Bowl where Joe Namath won.

4824
02:46:18,400 --> 02:46:20,540
He had things to say about the plays

4825
02:46:20,540 --> 02:46:21,840
being known in advance.

4826
02:46:22,140 --> 02:46:23,440
He had all kinds of negative things to

4827
02:46:23,440 --> 02:46:23,540
say.

4828
02:46:23,840 --> 02:46:26,520
This game is going to go for the

4829
02:46:26,520 --> 02:46:27,320
Philadelphia team.

4830
02:46:27,420 --> 02:46:29,900
And if it doesn't, I'd be very surprised.

4831
02:46:30,000 --> 02:46:30,620
But I'm not betting.

4832
02:46:30,820 --> 02:46:32,240
I don't believe in betting on sports.

4833
02:46:32,280 --> 02:46:33,080
It's not a good idea.

4834
02:46:33,080 --> 02:46:34,460
No, because it's rigged.

4835
02:46:34,980 --> 02:46:35,960
Because it's rigged.

4836
02:46:36,140 --> 02:46:38,160
And you never know how much, who it's

4837
02:46:38,160 --> 02:46:38,780
rigged by.

4838
02:46:39,100 --> 02:46:39,880
Because it's bad.

4839
02:46:40,020 --> 02:46:41,080
It's bad rigging.

4840
02:46:41,240 --> 02:46:42,400
Very, very bad rigging.

4841
02:46:42,800 --> 02:46:44,160
So that's it.

4842
02:46:44,360 --> 02:46:45,080
Take it to the bank.

4843
02:46:45,220 --> 02:46:45,680
There it is.

4844
02:46:46,160 --> 02:46:46,760
That's right.

4845
02:46:46,880 --> 02:46:48,940
Your no agenda show predicts the Eagles.

4846
02:46:49,800 --> 02:46:51,540
And half of your no agenda show predicts

4847
02:46:51,540 --> 02:46:52,180
it by five.

4848
02:46:52,300 --> 02:46:53,700
And that doesn't really matter, I guess.

4849
02:46:55,680 --> 02:46:56,380
But a win's a win.

4850
02:46:56,440 --> 02:46:57,940
But I think it will be a fun

4851
02:46:57,940 --> 02:46:58,200
game.

4852
02:46:58,280 --> 02:46:59,460
I have a feeling it's going to be

4853
02:46:59,460 --> 02:46:59,720
a fun game.

4854
02:46:59,720 --> 02:47:01,020
I don't think so.

4855
02:47:02,580 --> 02:47:03,600
It's not going to be.

4856
02:47:03,760 --> 02:47:04,300
It'll be fun.

4857
02:47:04,900 --> 02:47:06,940
Okay, let's add an extra one.

4858
02:47:07,620 --> 02:47:09,460
Everybody's saying that if the Eagles win, this

4859
02:47:09,460 --> 02:47:11,020
is, again, the experts.

4860
02:47:11,160 --> 02:47:12,580
The guys are getting more money than we

4861
02:47:12,580 --> 02:47:12,760
are.

4862
02:47:13,120 --> 02:47:14,740
They're saying, well, you know, if the Eagles

4863
02:47:14,740 --> 02:47:16,380
win, it'll be because of the passing game.

4864
02:47:16,620 --> 02:47:19,080
Because Kansas City is going to stop the

4865
02:47:19,080 --> 02:47:19,340
run.

4866
02:47:19,380 --> 02:47:21,960
Because they can't let Saquon Barkley go nuts.

4867
02:47:22,380 --> 02:47:24,880
Because it's unbelievable how good this guy is.

4868
02:47:25,240 --> 02:47:26,360
So they're going to stop him.

4869
02:47:26,480 --> 02:47:27,940
And it's going to be on Jalen Hurts'

4870
02:47:28,120 --> 02:47:29,360
back to win the game.

4871
02:47:29,360 --> 02:47:31,220
And he'll get the MVP.

4872
02:47:32,080 --> 02:47:35,680
I'm predicting that Saquon Barkley will go nuts

4873
02:47:35,680 --> 02:47:38,340
again, like he's done every game like this.

4874
02:47:38,680 --> 02:47:39,880
And he'll get the MVP.

4875
02:47:40,160 --> 02:47:42,520
That's just a side bet, if you're interested.

4876
02:47:42,660 --> 02:47:44,220
And what's his name again?

4877
02:47:45,260 --> 02:47:45,700
Saquon.

4878
02:47:45,920 --> 02:47:46,360
Saquon.

4879
02:47:46,400 --> 02:47:47,100
And what does he do?

4880
02:47:47,120 --> 02:47:48,360
Black guy named Saquon.

4881
02:47:48,480 --> 02:47:49,280
What does he do?

4882
02:47:50,100 --> 02:47:50,820
He's a running.

4883
02:47:50,980 --> 02:47:52,440
Hell, I don't know why I'm explaining it

4884
02:47:52,440 --> 02:47:52,700
to you.

4885
02:47:53,060 --> 02:47:54,100
He's a running back.

4886
02:47:54,180 --> 02:47:56,000
They give him the ball to run the

4887
02:47:56,000 --> 02:47:56,320
ball.

4888
02:47:56,440 --> 02:47:56,980
Just run it.

4889
02:47:57,000 --> 02:47:57,920
They don't throw it to him.

4890
02:47:57,920 --> 02:48:00,080
You have to understand that there are many

4891
02:48:00,080 --> 02:48:02,460
people like me who watch one football game

4892
02:48:02,460 --> 02:48:02,920
a year.

4893
02:48:03,160 --> 02:48:04,100
And it's interesting.

4894
02:48:04,320 --> 02:48:06,520
We do want, you know, us sports ball

4895
02:48:06,520 --> 02:48:06,880
fans.

4896
02:48:07,400 --> 02:48:08,140
I do understand.

4897
02:48:08,280 --> 02:48:09,360
There's a lot of people that don't like

4898
02:48:09,360 --> 02:48:09,620
football.

4899
02:48:09,840 --> 02:48:10,960
And there's a lot of people that don't

4900
02:48:10,960 --> 02:48:12,260
even watch one game a year.

4901
02:48:12,260 --> 02:48:13,660
I'm surprised you watch one.

4902
02:48:13,980 --> 02:48:16,540
And what will be interesting is the commercials

4903
02:48:16,540 --> 02:48:18,680
this year will be extra interesting.

4904
02:48:19,340 --> 02:48:23,160
Because on one hand, apparently Doge has three

4905
02:48:23,160 --> 02:48:24,380
30-second spots.

4906
02:48:24,980 --> 02:48:25,640
Yeah, I heard that.

4907
02:48:25,640 --> 02:48:27,420
It'll be fun to see what what Doge

4908
02:48:27,420 --> 02:48:27,800
does.

4909
02:48:28,380 --> 02:48:31,260
And also, I believe that babes in bikinis

4910
02:48:31,260 --> 02:48:33,060
are back in the commercials.

4911
02:48:34,360 --> 02:48:35,380
Yeah, I don't know.

4912
02:48:35,460 --> 02:48:36,080
Yes, yes.

4913
02:48:36,160 --> 02:48:38,220
Carl's Jr. has a babe in a bikini.

4914
02:48:38,820 --> 02:48:39,300
Wow.

4915
02:48:39,620 --> 02:48:40,700
Yeah, finally.

4916
02:48:41,080 --> 02:48:42,580
We're so back, baby.

4917
02:48:43,380 --> 02:48:45,840
You know, America, let me see if I

4918
02:48:45,840 --> 02:48:47,600
can articulate this.

4919
02:48:48,400 --> 02:48:49,940
People love restoration.

4920
02:48:50,920 --> 02:48:53,940
They love a beautifully restored automobile.

4921
02:48:54,420 --> 02:48:57,540
You take an American muscle car and you

4922
02:48:57,540 --> 02:48:59,700
fix that thing up and you clean it

4923
02:48:59,700 --> 02:49:02,740
up and you can get $85,000 at

4924
02:49:02,740 --> 02:49:04,300
Meacham Auto Auction for it.

4925
02:49:04,780 --> 02:49:06,780
That's what's happening to America right now.

4926
02:49:07,020 --> 02:49:08,660
We're rebuilding the muscle car.

4927
02:49:09,860 --> 02:49:12,520
And that includes babes in bikinis and burgers.

4928
02:49:12,660 --> 02:49:14,040
Babes, bikinis and burgers.

4929
02:49:14,520 --> 02:49:15,000
That's us.

4930
02:49:16,380 --> 02:49:19,540
Instead of this trans Maoist agenda.

4931
02:49:21,920 --> 02:49:24,320
Well, I think you're onto something.

4932
02:49:25,540 --> 02:49:26,500
Pay attention.

4933
02:49:26,640 --> 02:49:28,460
I'm not sure what it is, but you're

4934
02:49:28,460 --> 02:49:28,880
onto something.

4935
02:49:29,100 --> 02:49:30,140
Babes, boobs and burgers.

4936
02:49:30,320 --> 02:49:30,740
There it is.

4937
02:49:30,820 --> 02:49:31,820
There's sums up the show.

4938
02:49:34,040 --> 02:49:36,860
The only thing I thought was interesting, although

4939
02:49:36,860 --> 02:49:41,020
unfortunately, this report didn't mention what I thought

4940
02:49:41,020 --> 02:49:43,840
was the most, kind of the best part,

4941
02:49:43,980 --> 02:49:47,360
was the meeting between President Trump and Japan's

4942
02:49:47,360 --> 02:49:47,920
Prime Minister.

4943
02:49:49,240 --> 02:49:51,900
I watched it happen during the day.

4944
02:49:52,520 --> 02:49:54,100
And so I was watching it live.

4945
02:49:54,100 --> 02:49:57,400
And to me, there were two interesting.

4946
02:49:57,520 --> 02:49:59,320
Well, actually, I'll play the reports from WGN

4947
02:49:59,320 --> 02:49:59,780
in Chicago.

4948
02:49:59,980 --> 02:50:02,620
So expect them to omit some bits.

4949
02:50:02,940 --> 02:50:04,500
Presenting him with a picture the two had

4950
02:50:04,500 --> 02:50:06,080
just taken to mark the visit.

4951
02:50:06,360 --> 02:50:08,360
I wish I was as handsome as him,

4952
02:50:08,440 --> 02:50:08,920
but I'm not.

4953
02:50:09,060 --> 02:50:12,340
President Donald Trump welcomed Japanese Prime Minister Ashiba

4954
02:50:12,340 --> 02:50:13,760
Shigeru to the White House.

4955
02:50:13,940 --> 02:50:15,260
It's a great honor to have you.

4956
02:50:15,540 --> 02:50:18,140
President Trump had a famously close relationship with

4957
02:50:18,140 --> 02:50:20,980
former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, who was

4958
02:50:20,980 --> 02:50:22,620
assassinated in 2022.

4959
02:50:22,620 --> 02:50:24,780
The current Prime Minister says the goal of

4960
02:50:24,780 --> 02:50:26,840
his visit is to form a similar bond

4961
02:50:26,840 --> 02:50:28,760
and build on the friendship between the two

4962
02:50:28,760 --> 02:50:29,340
countries.

4963
02:50:29,640 --> 02:50:31,940
I look forward to working together with President

4964
02:50:31,940 --> 02:50:35,240
Trump, who I respect immensely, to usher in

4965
02:50:35,240 --> 02:50:37,300
a new golden age of Japan-U.S.

4966
02:50:37,500 --> 02:50:38,020
relations.

4967
02:50:38,240 --> 02:50:40,500
President Trump announced the two already struck a

4968
02:50:40,500 --> 02:50:43,560
deal, saying Japanese company Nippon Steel will drop

4969
02:50:43,560 --> 02:50:46,080
its acquisition of Pittsburgh-based U.S. steel

4970
02:50:46,080 --> 02:50:47,880
and make an investment instead.

4971
02:50:48,060 --> 02:50:49,740
This comes after a fight in which the

4972
02:50:49,740 --> 02:50:51,700
U.S. government worked to block the planned

4973
02:50:51,700 --> 02:50:52,060
sale.

4974
02:50:52,060 --> 02:50:54,520
I didn't want it purchased, but investment I

4975
02:50:54,520 --> 02:50:54,780
love.

4976
02:50:54,920 --> 02:50:57,200
And both leaders expressed a desire to maintain

4977
02:50:57,200 --> 02:50:58,960
strong economic ties.

4978
02:50:59,140 --> 02:51:02,060
The United States and Japan trade over $300

4979
02:51:02,060 --> 02:51:04,800
billion in goods and services each year.

4980
02:51:05,020 --> 02:51:07,260
But the president says Japan isn't safe from

4981
02:51:07,260 --> 02:51:09,660
the sweeping tariffs he's used on other countries,

4982
02:51:09,980 --> 02:51:12,740
arguing the U.S.-Japanese trade relationship should be

4983
02:51:12,740 --> 02:51:13,520
more balanced.

4984
02:51:13,780 --> 02:51:15,400
Probably reciprocal tariffs.

4985
02:51:15,560 --> 02:51:17,260
We have a trade deficit with Japan of

4986
02:51:17,260 --> 02:51:19,760
over $100 billion, but we're going to work

4987
02:51:19,760 --> 02:51:21,280
that out, and I think very quickly.

4988
02:51:21,280 --> 02:51:23,580
But the Japanese prime minister declined to say

4989
02:51:23,580 --> 02:51:26,460
whether his country would impose retaliatory tariffs.

4990
02:51:26,740 --> 02:51:29,300
I am unable to respond to a theoretical

4991
02:51:29,300 --> 02:51:30,020
question.

4992
02:51:30,220 --> 02:51:31,560
That's the official answer that we have.

4993
02:51:32,360 --> 02:51:33,780
That's a very good answer.

4994
02:51:34,020 --> 02:51:37,100
The president also highlighted their military relationship, saying

4995
02:51:37,100 --> 02:51:39,540
Japan has committed to double defense spending as

4996
02:51:39,540 --> 02:51:40,960
it works with the U.S. to maintain

4997
02:51:40,960 --> 02:51:42,540
peace in the Indo-Pacific.

4998
02:51:43,080 --> 02:51:45,760
Conspicuously missing from the report is the trillion

4999
02:51:45,760 --> 02:51:48,660
-dollar investment the prime minister said Japan would

5000
02:51:48,660 --> 02:51:49,400
make in America.

5001
02:51:49,400 --> 02:51:52,340
I thought that was odd.

5002
02:51:52,440 --> 02:51:53,840
They didn't put that in there.

5003
02:51:58,030 --> 02:52:01,790
Yeah, well, nobody in the media is going

5004
02:52:01,790 --> 02:52:05,350
to be doing accurate reporting, let's face it.

5005
02:52:05,570 --> 02:52:06,230
Of course not.

5006
02:52:06,350 --> 02:52:06,970
Of course not.

5007
02:52:07,910 --> 02:52:09,010
What else you got, bro?

5008
02:52:09,470 --> 02:52:11,530
I got the Fed buyout story.

5009
02:52:11,750 --> 02:52:13,530
It's kind of interesting because it's, again, just

5010
02:52:13,530 --> 02:52:18,110
more whining and moaning and groaning from NPR.

5011
02:52:18,850 --> 02:52:19,530
All right.

5012
02:52:19,550 --> 02:52:21,130
I also have this week in Trump, I

5013
02:52:21,130 --> 02:52:22,230
got some Scott Horton stuff.

5014
02:52:22,290 --> 02:52:23,870
Scott Horton stuff is interesting.

5015
02:52:23,930 --> 02:52:24,430
What do you want to do?

5016
02:52:24,550 --> 02:52:24,970
You want to do...

5017
02:52:24,970 --> 02:52:26,890
I mean, I've had enough NPR whining.

5018
02:52:27,110 --> 02:52:28,010
What do you want to do, Scott Horton?

5019
02:52:28,210 --> 02:52:29,850
Now, Scott, this is on a podcast.

5020
02:52:30,370 --> 02:52:32,110
This is Scott Horton, who's a writer.

5021
02:52:32,230 --> 02:52:33,830
He did this book called Provoked.

5022
02:52:34,490 --> 02:52:36,170
And Scott, he's a lefty.

5023
02:52:37,190 --> 02:52:38,470
But he's a Trump's...

5024
02:52:38,470 --> 02:52:40,490
He voted for Trump because he got...

5025
02:52:40,490 --> 02:52:42,310
He says he's a...

5026
02:52:42,310 --> 02:52:43,570
And he's done a lot of books.

5027
02:52:43,630 --> 02:52:44,750
You can look him up on Amazon.

5028
02:52:45,270 --> 02:52:48,430
But he votes for Trump because he thinks

5029
02:52:48,430 --> 02:52:50,710
the left is doing nothing but lying to

5030
02:52:50,710 --> 02:52:50,850
him.

5031
02:52:51,050 --> 02:52:53,210
And he sees it as such an insult

5032
02:52:53,210 --> 02:52:55,390
that he has to vote for Trump, even

5033
02:52:55,390 --> 02:52:56,270
though he hates him.

5034
02:52:56,850 --> 02:52:59,070
The trolls are saying he's libertarian.

5035
02:52:59,850 --> 02:53:00,270
Oh, yeah.

5036
02:53:00,310 --> 02:53:01,430
That's what he calls himself.

5037
02:53:01,670 --> 02:53:01,830
Okay.

5038
02:53:02,110 --> 02:53:02,290
Yeah.

5039
02:53:02,870 --> 02:53:03,970
Libertarian by any...

5040
02:53:03,970 --> 02:53:04,650
Libertarian.

5041
02:53:04,710 --> 02:53:06,490
Yes, he's a libertarian technically.

5042
02:53:07,450 --> 02:53:09,070
And he's one of those libertarian...

5043
02:53:09,070 --> 02:53:11,290
Everyone's a libertarian once in their life.

5044
02:53:11,290 --> 02:53:12,510
That's like...

5045
02:53:12,510 --> 02:53:14,390
Why isn't libertarian someone who doesn't want to

5046
02:53:14,390 --> 02:53:15,210
admit they're a Republican?

5047
02:53:18,350 --> 02:53:19,570
Or they don't want...

5048
02:53:19,570 --> 02:53:20,250
I don't know what...

5049
02:53:20,250 --> 02:53:22,290
Looking back on it, I have no idea

5050
02:53:22,290 --> 02:53:23,790
what a libertarian is supposed to be.

5051
02:53:24,430 --> 02:53:27,450
It's like they want to legalize drugs and

5052
02:53:27,450 --> 02:53:30,290
people should be free to have sex with

5053
02:53:30,290 --> 02:53:31,110
whoever they want.

5054
02:53:31,530 --> 02:53:32,130
It's based...

5055
02:53:32,130 --> 02:53:32,870
I think that's the whole thing.

5056
02:53:32,890 --> 02:53:34,350
Is this the guy who's on CNN all

5057
02:53:34,350 --> 02:53:34,690
the time?

5058
02:53:35,190 --> 02:53:36,310
I've never seen him before.

5059
02:53:36,490 --> 02:53:36,750
Okay.

5060
02:53:36,850 --> 02:53:38,090
Maybe I'm thinking of someone else.

5061
02:53:38,090 --> 02:53:39,950
Well, he might be.

5062
02:53:40,070 --> 02:53:40,850
I don't watch CNN.

5063
02:53:41,210 --> 02:53:41,950
So let's listen to...

5064
02:53:41,950 --> 02:53:44,250
So he's got a lot of tidbits that

5065
02:53:44,250 --> 02:53:44,730
are interesting.

5066
02:53:44,850 --> 02:53:46,570
And this is him on Kushner.

5067
02:53:47,010 --> 02:53:49,150
He was reaffirmed in that thinking.

5068
02:53:49,330 --> 02:53:49,810
Oh, I'm sorry.

5069
02:53:50,150 --> 02:53:50,630
Wrong one.

5070
02:53:50,730 --> 02:53:51,110
Here we go.

5071
02:53:51,150 --> 02:53:51,750
On Kushner.

5072
02:53:52,090 --> 02:53:52,610
Here we go.

5073
02:53:53,170 --> 02:53:55,170
And does Donald Trump know any reason why

5074
02:53:55,170 --> 02:53:57,170
in the world he shouldn't just let Netanyahu,

5075
02:53:57,490 --> 02:54:01,130
as he said, quote, quote, finish the job?

5076
02:54:01,590 --> 02:54:03,370
Is what he told Netanyahu the other day.

5077
02:54:03,430 --> 02:54:04,390
Well, what do you mean by that?

5078
02:54:04,390 --> 02:54:07,450
How about, well, we finished cleansing all of

5079
02:54:07,450 --> 02:54:10,350
historic Palestine, and we'll call it greater Israel.

5080
02:54:10,450 --> 02:54:12,010
How about that for finish the job?

5081
02:54:12,290 --> 02:54:14,030
And what does Donald Trump really care?

5082
02:54:14,410 --> 02:54:16,890
His son-in-law, and I guess people

5083
02:54:16,890 --> 02:54:17,490
don't know this.

5084
02:54:17,950 --> 02:54:19,930
Seems like they should talk about this every

5085
02:54:19,930 --> 02:54:20,790
day, all the time.

5086
02:54:21,310 --> 02:54:23,070
His son-in-law, Jared Kushner, the guy

5087
02:54:23,070 --> 02:54:24,270
who was in charge of his entire Middle

5088
02:54:24,270 --> 02:54:27,050
East policy for four years, is Benjamin Netanyahu's

5089
02:54:27,050 --> 02:54:27,590
godson.

5090
02:54:28,510 --> 02:54:30,330
The whole time when he was a young

5091
02:54:30,330 --> 02:54:31,970
boy growing up in New York City, when

5092
02:54:31,970 --> 02:54:33,990
Benjamin Netanyahu would come to town, he had

5093
02:54:33,990 --> 02:54:35,950
to sleep on the couch because Benjamin Netanyahu

5094
02:54:35,950 --> 02:54:37,490
would sleep in his bed.

5095
02:54:37,810 --> 02:54:38,670
Google that.

5096
02:54:39,210 --> 02:54:39,870
Google it.

5097
02:54:40,450 --> 02:54:42,330
Okay, that's who Jared Kushner is.

5098
02:54:42,390 --> 02:54:43,770
He's an Israeli agent.

5099
02:54:44,750 --> 02:54:46,130
He's an Israeli synonym.

5100
02:54:47,330 --> 02:54:49,450
He's here to represent the interests of a

5101
02:54:49,450 --> 02:54:52,270
foreign power, and he's got Donald Trump completely

5102
02:54:52,270 --> 02:54:55,310
pwned, like the gimp in the box on

5103
02:54:55,310 --> 02:54:57,430
Pulp Fiction, pwned.

5104
02:54:59,390 --> 02:55:01,710
So Donald Trump can dress up like Pat

5105
02:55:01,710 --> 02:55:02,930
Buchanan all he wants.

5106
02:55:02,990 --> 02:55:04,150
He's not Pat Buchanan.

5107
02:55:05,310 --> 02:55:07,570
He's a Zionist, and when you're a Zionist,

5108
02:55:07,610 --> 02:55:09,150
you can't be America first.

5109
02:55:09,610 --> 02:55:10,930
All right, guys, let's take a moment and

5110
02:55:10,930 --> 02:55:12,350
thank our sponsor for today.

5111
02:55:12,730 --> 02:55:13,270
Hold on a second.

5112
02:55:13,390 --> 02:55:18,210
So there was people losing their ever-loving

5113
02:55:18,210 --> 02:55:19,770
minds over Trump.

5114
02:55:20,930 --> 02:55:23,670
So Netanyahu was signing something.

5115
02:55:23,750 --> 02:55:23,990
I don't know.

5116
02:55:24,030 --> 02:55:26,270
They probably signed, you know, whoever's going to

5117
02:55:26,270 --> 02:55:27,310
own Gaza, whatever.

5118
02:55:28,050 --> 02:55:31,110
And the president pulls out the chair and

5119
02:55:31,110 --> 02:55:33,810
then pushes it in as Netanyahu sits down.

5120
02:55:34,430 --> 02:55:38,170
And the online rage went something like this.

5121
02:55:38,590 --> 02:55:40,730
Trump is Netanyahu's slave.

5122
02:55:40,890 --> 02:55:42,290
He's his house boy.

5123
02:55:42,490 --> 02:55:43,190
Look at him.

5124
02:55:43,270 --> 02:55:45,630
He's holding his chair for him.

5125
02:55:45,750 --> 02:55:50,270
I'm like, Trump, he's a hospitality guy.

5126
02:55:50,830 --> 02:55:52,850
He makes sure you have mints on your

5127
02:55:52,850 --> 02:55:53,810
pillow at night.

5128
02:55:54,710 --> 02:55:57,070
I'm sure, but everyone's like, oh, no.

5129
02:55:58,190 --> 02:56:00,270
Our take on this is from the get

5130
02:56:00,270 --> 02:56:02,550
-go, is from the intelligence side, which is

5131
02:56:02,550 --> 02:56:04,590
that we run Israel.

5132
02:56:04,850 --> 02:56:05,870
They don't run us.

5133
02:56:06,470 --> 02:56:06,570
Exactly.

5134
02:56:07,630 --> 02:56:09,690
And once you get past this, like, this

5135
02:56:09,690 --> 02:56:11,530
guy just, oh, he's a spy for Israel,

5136
02:56:11,690 --> 02:56:12,430
blah, blah, blah.

5137
02:56:12,650 --> 02:56:13,990
That's bull crap.

5138
02:56:14,250 --> 02:56:16,030
But if you want to believe that because

5139
02:56:16,030 --> 02:56:19,250
you're a libertarian writer, even though you don't

5140
02:56:19,250 --> 02:56:21,410
even notice what you're writing, for example, the

5141
02:56:21,410 --> 02:56:23,350
book you just came out with, which was

5142
02:56:23,350 --> 02:56:23,990
Provoked.

5143
02:56:24,050 --> 02:56:25,270
Or if you're on Mastodon.

5144
02:56:25,570 --> 02:56:25,670
Yes.

5145
02:56:28,430 --> 02:56:28,830
Yeah.

5146
02:56:29,270 --> 02:56:32,630
The book about Provoked is about how we

5147
02:56:32,630 --> 02:56:35,610
provoked the Russians to take over Ukraine.

5148
02:56:35,770 --> 02:56:37,210
It's got all the stuff we've talked about

5149
02:56:37,210 --> 02:56:38,350
on this show for years.

5150
02:56:38,970 --> 02:56:40,850
You know, the Maidan, the whole thing.

5151
02:56:41,590 --> 02:56:43,350
Well, you know, that's what a Zionist would

5152
02:56:43,350 --> 02:56:44,010
say, John.

5153
02:56:44,510 --> 02:56:46,750
And so, yes, exactly.

5154
02:56:47,410 --> 02:56:50,030
And so, the way these guys don't have,

5155
02:56:50,390 --> 02:56:53,870
they don't know who, they think the tail's

5156
02:56:53,870 --> 02:56:54,610
wagging the dog.

5157
02:56:54,710 --> 02:56:56,370
Well, no, no, the dog is wagging the

5158
02:56:56,370 --> 02:56:57,730
tail, so let's get over that.

5159
02:56:57,790 --> 02:56:59,150
But, okay, you can think what you want.

5160
02:56:59,490 --> 02:57:01,930
Meanwhile, what I thought was interesting from this

5161
02:57:01,930 --> 02:57:04,630
guy that thinks a little more, he's irked

5162
02:57:04,630 --> 02:57:09,430
about Woodward, who is another spy, agent.

5163
02:57:10,610 --> 02:57:12,010
Agent, spook, yes.

5164
02:57:12,010 --> 02:57:14,210
And I thought this was worth listening to.

5165
02:57:14,290 --> 02:57:17,790
And this is Scott Provoked on Woodward as

5166
02:57:17,790 --> 02:57:18,470
a two-parter.

5167
02:57:18,850 --> 02:57:22,090
He was reaffirmed in that thinking, watching the

5168
02:57:22,090 --> 02:57:25,290
fall of Afghanistan and how indecisive Biden was

5169
02:57:25,290 --> 02:57:27,390
in finishing out the withdrawal.

5170
02:57:27,390 --> 02:57:28,270
He's talking about Putin.

5171
02:57:29,030 --> 02:57:31,650
Not withdrawing at all, but just botching it

5172
02:57:31,650 --> 02:57:32,390
the way he did.

5173
02:57:33,230 --> 02:57:35,530
And, you know, the Bob Woodward book, the

5174
02:57:35,530 --> 02:57:38,510
new Bob Woodward book has quotes from the

5175
02:57:38,510 --> 02:57:40,830
high-level intelligence officials saying that they assessed

5176
02:57:40,830 --> 02:57:41,210
that.

5177
02:57:41,690 --> 02:57:43,470
They even claimed, I think, to have sources

5178
02:57:43,470 --> 02:57:45,130
in Russia saying this was part of their

5179
02:57:45,130 --> 02:57:48,550
thinking, was that Afghanistan made Biden look so

5180
02:57:48,550 --> 02:57:50,330
weak that they thought, yeah, we can definitely

5181
02:57:50,330 --> 02:57:51,490
press our advantage now.

5182
02:57:51,990 --> 02:57:54,070
But the problem is, you gotta throw out

5183
02:57:54,070 --> 02:57:55,650
that whole Bob Woodward book cuz he's got

5184
02:57:55,650 --> 02:57:58,390
a big fake quote of Sergei Lavrov on

5185
02:57:58,390 --> 02:57:59,170
page 88.

5186
02:58:00,190 --> 02:58:01,890
And then the whole book, the whole point

5187
02:58:01,890 --> 02:58:03,370
of a Bob Woodward book is he has

5188
02:58:03,370 --> 02:58:05,330
quotes from people that nobody else can talk

5189
02:58:05,330 --> 02:58:06,990
to, but he gets interviews with.

5190
02:58:07,470 --> 02:58:09,090
But so if he's lying about a quote

5191
02:58:09,090 --> 02:58:11,830
that I can check on the OSCE website,

5192
02:58:12,310 --> 02:58:15,010
then what is he saying when he's quoting

5193
02:58:15,650 --> 02:58:17,450
Blinken and Sullivan and the rest of these

5194
02:58:17,450 --> 02:58:17,890
people?

5195
02:58:18,650 --> 02:58:20,750
Like if they don't dispute all the quotes,

5196
02:58:20,770 --> 02:58:22,570
then I'm supposed to accept them or something?

5197
02:58:22,670 --> 02:58:22,950
I don't know.

5198
02:58:23,030 --> 02:58:23,630
I just can't.

5199
02:58:23,890 --> 02:58:25,190
I started to write a note in my

5200
02:58:25,190 --> 02:58:27,410
book cuz I had actually, you know what,

5201
02:58:27,470 --> 02:58:27,570
man?

5202
02:58:27,630 --> 02:58:29,270
In that book, there's all kinds of quotes

5203
02:58:29,270 --> 02:58:31,010
of Biden saying how right I am about

5204
02:58:31,010 --> 02:58:31,510
everything.

5205
02:58:31,910 --> 02:58:33,710
Like I started quoting some good stuff in

5206
02:58:33,710 --> 02:58:33,870
there.

5207
02:58:34,010 --> 02:58:36,710
And Avril Haines, the DNI, I had them

5208
02:58:36,710 --> 02:58:39,070
admitting, yeah, Horton's right after all, blah, blah,

5209
02:58:39,070 --> 02:58:39,910
blah, all over the place.

5210
02:58:40,210 --> 02:58:41,290
And I had to cut all those quotes

5211
02:58:41,290 --> 02:58:41,630
out.

5212
02:58:42,070 --> 02:58:44,570
Once I got to the part where Woodward's

5213
02:58:44,570 --> 02:58:47,110
lying to me, I started to write in

5214
02:58:47,110 --> 02:58:48,510
the footnotes, well, you gotta kind of take

5215
02:58:48,510 --> 02:58:49,370
these with a grain of salt.

5216
02:58:49,450 --> 02:58:51,450
And then I'm like, I can't put quotes

5217
02:58:51,450 --> 02:58:52,650
that you gotta take with a grain of

5218
02:58:52,650 --> 02:58:54,510
salt in the book where I got a

5219
02:58:54,510 --> 02:58:55,070
disclaim.

5220
02:58:55,350 --> 02:58:57,190
Even though he is the most prominent journalist

5221
02:58:57,190 --> 02:58:59,650
in America, but like he just happened to

5222
02:58:59,650 --> 02:59:00,370
have a quote in there.

5223
02:59:00,450 --> 02:59:01,630
I and I happen to be writing a

5224
02:59:01,630 --> 02:59:02,490
book about this.

5225
02:59:02,490 --> 02:59:04,990
I have the Lavrov quote already.

5226
02:59:05,130 --> 02:59:06,410
I know what he said.

5227
02:59:06,470 --> 02:59:08,430
So when I read the live version of

5228
02:59:08,430 --> 02:59:10,790
it, I'm like, hey, I know that quote.

5229
02:59:11,170 --> 02:59:12,070
And that's not right.

5230
02:59:12,310 --> 02:59:14,830
I can't wait to subscribe to this podcast.

5231
02:59:16,930 --> 02:59:19,030
Wow, riveting, riveting stuff.

5232
02:59:19,350 --> 02:59:21,550
Can you like maybe focus a little more

5233
02:59:21,550 --> 02:59:23,650
instead of, you know, yammering like that, but

5234
02:59:23,650 --> 02:59:24,130
okay.

5235
02:59:24,510 --> 02:59:26,310
So the second part of it, he explains

5236
02:59:26,310 --> 02:59:27,810
a little more in detail, but then there's

5237
02:59:27,810 --> 02:59:30,050
a kind of a kicker about Amazon taking

5238
02:59:30,050 --> 02:59:32,590
his, his commentary off the site.

5239
02:59:33,110 --> 02:59:34,710
And so it's, it's page 88.

5240
02:59:34,830 --> 02:59:36,110
If anybody wants to check this out and

5241
02:59:36,110 --> 02:59:39,630
also Amazon removed my review about this saying

5242
02:59:39,630 --> 02:59:41,590
that I claimed I got an inauthentic copy

5243
02:59:41,590 --> 02:59:42,210
of the book.

5244
02:59:42,290 --> 02:59:43,490
That's not what I said.

5245
02:59:43,690 --> 02:59:45,470
I said, there's a fake quote on page

5246
02:59:45,470 --> 02:59:45,950
88.

5247
02:59:46,030 --> 02:59:48,050
So I had a great one-star review

5248
02:59:48,050 --> 02:59:49,250
on there and they took it down.

5249
02:59:49,310 --> 02:59:50,710
And there's now all the ones sort of

5250
02:59:50,710 --> 02:59:52,430
views are my book was torn or whatever,

5251
02:59:52,730 --> 02:59:55,330
and no criticism of the actual substance of

5252
02:59:55,330 --> 02:59:55,670
the thing.

5253
02:59:56,030 --> 02:59:58,010
But if anyone wants to check the quote

5254
02:59:58,010 --> 03:00:00,770
is the playing with fire quote of Lavrov

5255
03:00:00,770 --> 03:00:01,850
on page 88.

5256
03:00:02,030 --> 03:00:03,530
If anybody I'm not selling it, if anybody

5257
03:00:03,530 --> 03:00:06,870
already has the new Woodward book and then

5258
03:00:06,870 --> 03:00:09,510
go and check the OSCE websites from December,

5259
03:00:09,670 --> 03:00:14,450
pretty sure December 2nd, 2021, but certainly December,

5260
03:00:14,910 --> 03:00:15,190
2021.

5261
03:00:15,730 --> 03:00:17,770
And you'll find the quote from Sergey Lavrov

5262
03:00:17,770 --> 03:00:18,330
playing with fire.

5263
03:00:18,390 --> 03:00:20,450
And you'll see how Bob turns the meaning

5264
03:00:20,450 --> 03:00:24,670
of the quote entirely upside down to he's

5265
03:00:24,670 --> 03:00:27,910
saying, essentially, it's so reckless the way you

5266
03:00:27,910 --> 03:00:31,850
guys completely disregard our opinion about your expansion

5267
03:00:31,850 --> 03:00:33,590
of the NATO Alliance.

5268
03:00:33,750 --> 03:00:35,470
And then they turn, he butchers the quote

5269
03:00:35,470 --> 03:00:38,910
into saying Lavrov is saying that America has

5270
03:00:38,910 --> 03:00:41,110
no right to decide who should be in

5271
03:00:41,110 --> 03:00:43,790
its Alliance or not, which of course makes

5272
03:00:43,790 --> 03:00:46,010
no sense whatsoever, because that's not what he

5273
03:00:46,010 --> 03:00:46,270
said.

5274
03:00:46,270 --> 03:00:47,190
The whole thing is stupid.

5275
03:00:47,230 --> 03:00:49,530
But anyway, point just being, you can't trust

5276
03:00:49,530 --> 03:00:51,110
Bob Woodward to tell you a quote, right?

5277
03:00:51,670 --> 03:00:52,090
Wow.

5278
03:00:52,430 --> 03:00:52,910
Okay.

5279
03:00:53,090 --> 03:00:55,490
That was revealing season of reveal.

5280
03:00:56,750 --> 03:00:58,850
Well, of course, we've been saying this for

5281
03:00:58,850 --> 03:00:59,230
what?

5282
03:00:59,890 --> 03:01:03,310
Since day one, since since legacy of wood,

5283
03:01:03,370 --> 03:01:06,550
not legacy of ashes, but family of secrets.

5284
03:01:06,550 --> 03:01:07,690
Yes, family of secrets.

5285
03:01:07,690 --> 03:01:08,230
That's right.

5286
03:01:08,270 --> 03:01:10,190
Which was brought out that Bob Woodward came

5287
03:01:10,190 --> 03:01:13,050
out of that was Navy intelligence, I think.

5288
03:01:13,610 --> 03:01:17,290
And she's basically a stooge for who knows

5289
03:01:17,290 --> 03:01:18,650
who nowadays.

5290
03:01:19,270 --> 03:01:21,350
Yeah, she's gambling going on.

5291
03:01:21,810 --> 03:01:21,910
Okay.

5292
03:01:22,090 --> 03:01:24,170
So I collected those those two clips.

5293
03:01:24,430 --> 03:01:24,870
That's good.

5294
03:01:25,610 --> 03:01:27,190
Now we use this backs us up.

5295
03:01:27,330 --> 03:01:30,770
I want to guys like a raving lunatic.

5296
03:01:30,790 --> 03:01:31,930
It was Scott Horton.

5297
03:01:32,030 --> 03:01:32,210
Yeah.

5298
03:01:32,870 --> 03:01:34,450
Yeah, I think we put him in the

5299
03:01:34,450 --> 03:01:35,750
bin of the view.

5300
03:01:37,510 --> 03:01:38,310
In a way.

5301
03:01:38,770 --> 03:01:42,490
So just looking at our current title choice,

5302
03:01:42,650 --> 03:01:44,710
we have wrong puberty, which I think is

5303
03:01:44,710 --> 03:01:45,270
really good.

5304
03:01:45,350 --> 03:01:47,930
I would like to play one clip of

5305
03:01:48,870 --> 03:01:53,290
Gavin Newsom to throw another title possibility into

5306
03:01:53,290 --> 03:01:53,730
the mix.

5307
03:01:54,070 --> 03:01:56,750
You previously mentioned the timeline for rebuilding would

5308
03:01:56,750 --> 03:01:58,170
be six to nine months.

5309
03:01:58,550 --> 03:01:59,890
Is that going to happen?

5310
03:02:00,090 --> 03:02:02,830
And should people rebuild in some parts of

5311
03:02:02,830 --> 03:02:06,190
California, given how high the fire risk is?

5312
03:02:06,330 --> 03:02:07,250
You can't rebuild the same.

5313
03:02:07,370 --> 03:02:09,150
So we have to rebuild with science.

5314
03:02:09,290 --> 03:02:10,930
We have to build with climate reality in

5315
03:02:10,930 --> 03:02:11,230
mind.

5316
03:02:11,350 --> 03:02:14,550
We have to look at infrastructure, redundancy systems,

5317
03:02:14,710 --> 03:02:16,950
ingress, egress as it relates to emergency management

5318
03:02:16,950 --> 03:02:18,350
and planning materials.

5319
03:02:18,830 --> 03:02:22,150
All of that has been reviewed and reconsidered

5320
03:02:22,150 --> 03:02:24,530
and with the latest iterations in terms of

5321
03:02:24,530 --> 03:02:26,770
understanding and technology.

5322
03:02:27,030 --> 03:02:29,430
And I say technology in the context of

5323
03:02:29,430 --> 03:02:32,230
how, again, we build the infrastructure to keep

5324
03:02:32,230 --> 03:02:35,290
it safe, to address undergrounding of lines, how

5325
03:02:35,290 --> 03:02:37,690
we address the larger issues of redundancy in

5326
03:02:37,690 --> 03:02:38,330
terms of systems.

5327
03:02:38,490 --> 03:02:40,850
But more important than anything else is the

5328
03:02:40,850 --> 03:02:42,770
need to get the debris removed.

5329
03:02:42,890 --> 03:02:45,410
30 days to do the hazardous waste.

5330
03:02:45,550 --> 03:02:47,490
We want to get six to nine months

5331
03:02:47,490 --> 03:02:48,430
the rest of the debris done.

5332
03:02:48,930 --> 03:02:50,330
Concurrently, people are getting permits.

5333
03:02:50,650 --> 03:02:52,570
So this is all happening, rolling together.

5334
03:02:53,030 --> 03:02:55,590
And we want to see construction very shortly.

5335
03:02:55,690 --> 03:02:56,850
And in the next few years, we want

5336
03:02:56,850 --> 03:02:59,170
to see hundreds, thousands of homes rebuilt.

5337
03:02:59,790 --> 03:03:02,330
I'm thinking climate reality might have legs.

5338
03:03:05,780 --> 03:03:08,440
I like the wrong puberty better.

5339
03:03:08,680 --> 03:03:13,320
What about babes, boobs and burgers?

5340
03:03:13,920 --> 03:03:15,180
I like that one a lot.

5341
03:03:29,320 --> 03:03:31,940
Everybody's rushing off to the bedding window.

5342
03:03:32,240 --> 03:03:34,140
And of course, we do have John's tip

5343
03:03:34,140 --> 03:03:34,960
of the day coming up.

5344
03:03:35,000 --> 03:03:36,800
We have some pretty good meetup reports.

5345
03:03:37,020 --> 03:03:38,620
End of show mixes are dynamite today.

5346
03:03:39,060 --> 03:03:40,580
And right now we're going to thank all

5347
03:03:40,580 --> 03:03:42,040
of our producers who supported us.

5348
03:03:42,100 --> 03:03:43,540
Fifty dollars and above.

5349
03:03:44,160 --> 03:03:44,840
Yeah, we will.

5350
03:03:45,420 --> 03:03:47,540
Starting with the son of anonymous dude named

5351
03:03:47,540 --> 03:03:50,280
Ben East Brunswick, New Jersey.

5352
03:03:50,400 --> 03:03:52,180
Speaking of the devil, one, two, three, four,

5353
03:03:52,260 --> 03:03:52,660
five.

5354
03:03:53,400 --> 03:03:54,720
He wants prayers for his dad.

5355
03:03:54,840 --> 03:03:56,280
He's laid off from his I.T. job

5356
03:03:56,280 --> 03:03:58,900
at the age of 60 by the heartless

5357
03:03:58,900 --> 03:04:01,800
miscreants of East Coast Finance.

5358
03:04:01,800 --> 03:04:03,760
Yes, I prayed for him earlier, for sure.

5359
03:04:04,640 --> 03:04:06,140
Having worked for a bank for almost 30

5360
03:04:06,140 --> 03:04:10,160
years, on an unrelated note, No Agenda producers

5361
03:04:10,160 --> 03:04:14,280
in Italy, head to noagenda.it. Oh, I

5362
03:04:14,280 --> 03:04:14,660
wonder what's up.

5363
03:04:14,660 --> 03:04:15,160
Say ciao.

5364
03:04:15,760 --> 03:04:16,320
Ciao.

5365
03:04:16,620 --> 03:04:22,140
Sarah Walker in New Ipswich, New Hampshire, 10535.

5366
03:04:23,400 --> 03:04:25,640
Robert Osegueda.

5367
03:04:27,280 --> 03:04:28,740
Osegueda, Osegueda, Osegueda.

5368
03:04:28,740 --> 03:04:29,960
I liked Osegueda.

5369
03:04:30,100 --> 03:04:30,740
I thought that was, that sounded right to

5370
03:04:30,740 --> 03:04:30,840
me.

5371
03:04:30,840 --> 03:04:31,800
It might be.

5372
03:04:31,900 --> 03:04:33,800
Eastern Connecticut, 8008.

5373
03:04:33,840 --> 03:04:34,340
That's boobs.

5374
03:04:34,600 --> 03:04:37,180
Also, Kevin McLaughlin's right there from Concord, North

5375
03:04:37,180 --> 03:04:37,600
Carolina.

5376
03:04:37,720 --> 03:04:38,940
He's the Archduke of Luna.

5377
03:04:39,400 --> 03:04:42,120
Love of America and boobs with 8008.

5378
03:04:43,120 --> 03:04:44,540
Keeps piling it on.

5379
03:04:44,660 --> 03:04:48,600
Robert Umberger in Langhorne, Pennsylvania, 8008.

5380
03:04:48,620 --> 03:04:49,200
That's three.

5381
03:04:50,700 --> 03:04:55,200
A hyperlocal stop at planet.net, boobs.

5382
03:04:56,740 --> 03:04:58,700
And there's no name in this one from

5383
03:04:58,700 --> 03:05:00,820
Missouri City, Texas, 75 bucks.

5384
03:05:00,880 --> 03:05:01,940
Do you have anything on your spreadsheet?

5385
03:05:02,020 --> 03:05:03,040
No, I got a green line.

5386
03:05:03,180 --> 03:05:05,420
It just says, thank you, Missouri City, Texas.

5387
03:05:06,940 --> 03:05:10,400
Sir Lineman of the Net in Anna, Illinois,

5388
03:05:10,620 --> 03:05:11,700
6969.

5389
03:05:11,860 --> 03:05:12,940
Happy Valentine's Day.

5390
03:05:13,380 --> 03:05:13,900
We got one.

5391
03:05:16,300 --> 03:05:17,680
We got one of these.

5392
03:05:17,920 --> 03:05:19,520
Baron Victor in Corvallis, Oregon.

5393
03:05:19,660 --> 03:05:21,860
One of them, 6502.

5394
03:05:22,180 --> 03:05:24,280
I had an Apple IIe, he writes.

5395
03:05:28,240 --> 03:05:28,600
Yeah.

5396
03:05:29,000 --> 03:05:31,020
Grayson Insurance, 6006.

5397
03:05:31,120 --> 03:05:33,710
Jason Shepard in Trinidad, Colorado, 6006.

5398
03:05:35,080 --> 03:05:42,260
Charles Meebok in Wantage, New Jersey, 6834.

5399
03:05:42,400 --> 03:05:43,540
There's a birthday call out.

5400
03:05:44,260 --> 03:05:44,740
Yes.

5401
03:05:45,120 --> 03:05:46,940
Feb 8th.

5402
03:05:46,960 --> 03:05:49,780
His last name is pronounced my back, not

5403
03:05:49,780 --> 03:05:50,560
me back.

5404
03:05:50,820 --> 03:05:52,640
And he says, if Trump continues deleting the

5405
03:05:52,640 --> 03:05:54,640
government agencies, there won't be anything for you

5406
03:05:54,640 --> 03:05:56,760
to complain about in four more years.

5407
03:05:57,580 --> 03:05:58,940
Yeah, that would be good.

5408
03:05:59,440 --> 03:06:01,580
We don't like complaining, to be honest about

5409
03:06:01,580 --> 03:06:01,680
it.

5410
03:06:01,860 --> 03:06:04,760
Lydia Terry in Rochester, New Hampshire, 5633.

5411
03:06:05,580 --> 03:06:07,180
That's a blizzard donation.

5412
03:06:07,180 --> 03:06:09,040
Oh, interesting.

5413
03:06:10,160 --> 03:06:12,060

03:06:16,120 --> 03:06:17,340
A UK listener.

5416
03:06:18,240 --> 03:06:19,440
Yeah, there's our UK guy.

5417
03:06:19,780 --> 03:06:23,560
And he says, I heard John grouching about

5418
03:06:23,560 --> 03:06:25,840
a lack of UK donors on 1734.

5419
03:06:25,940 --> 03:06:26,480
I had to donate.

5420
03:06:27,020 --> 03:06:29,760
Here's some pure Anglo-Saxon British pounds coming

5421
03:06:29,760 --> 03:06:31,660
your way from Sir Paul from Twickenham.

5422
03:06:31,860 --> 03:06:32,580

BC, 5298.

5431
03:07:13,320 --> 03:07:15,840
That's a $50 donation plus all the fees

5432
03:07:16,240 --> 03:07:17,100
from Canada.

03:07:18,080 --> 03:07:21,220

Hey, another one.

5436
03:07:26,560 --> 03:07:27,280
We got another one.

5437
03:07:27,360 --> 03:07:27,900
Complaining Works.

5438
03:07:27,920 --> 03:07:28,200
That's two.

5439
03:07:28,660 --> 03:07:29,140
Two.

5440
03:07:29,820 --> 03:07:31,840
Complaining, you know, people should note this.

5441
03:07:32,140 --> 03:07:32,440
Yes.

5442
03:07:33,220 --> 03:07:34,180
Complaining Works.

5443
03:07:34,600 --> 03:07:35,660
Listen up, Canada.

5444
03:07:37,660 --> 03:07:40,720
Josiah Thomas in Ankeny, Iowa, 51.

5445
03:07:41,580 --> 03:07:43,080
Bad Idea Supply.

5446
03:07:43,180 --> 03:07:43,780
Talking to the devil.

5447
03:07:43,860 --> 03:07:44,820
You spoke of them earlier.

5448
03:07:45,140 --> 03:07:45,600
That's right.

5449
03:07:46,580 --> 03:07:48,460
Look them up on the internet.

5450
03:07:48,660 --> 03:07:54,600
They came in with $50.50. Bad ideas.

5451
03:07:54,720 --> 03:07:55,340
Bad ideas.

5452
03:07:55,520 --> 03:07:56,520
They got a full supply.

5453
03:07:57,040 --> 03:07:57,820
Stuff you can burn.

5454
03:07:58,960 --> 03:08:00,880
Ray Howard in Kremlin, Colorado, 50.

5455
03:08:00,960 --> 03:08:02,600
Oops, these are all to the 50s.

5456
03:08:02,680 --> 03:08:04,420
Let's go with the $50 donor's name and

5457
03:08:04,420 --> 03:08:04,820
location.

5458
03:08:05,320 --> 03:08:07,100

5459
03:08:07,320 --> 03:08:09,000

William Kidwell in Dover, Delaware.

5461
03:08:13,500 --> 03:08:15,480
Aaron Matthews in Taylor, Michigan.

5462
03:08:15,480 --> 03:08:18,000
Uh, William needs a de-douching.

5463
03:08:19,600 --> 03:08:21,460
You've been de-douched.

5464
03:08:23,920 --> 03:08:26,780
William Spain in Springdale, Arkansas.

5465
03:08:27,300 --> 03:08:30,760
Kerry Jackson in Watertown, Tennessee.

5466
03:08:31,080 --> 03:08:33,080
And last on the very short list is

5467
03:08:33,080 --> 03:08:35,780
our buddy Jason Deluzio there in Miami Beach.

5468
03:08:36,420 --> 03:08:38,940
So that was a piss poor showing for

5469
03:08:38,940 --> 03:08:39,340
a show.

5470
03:08:41,160 --> 03:08:41,720
1737.

5471
03:08:42,000 --> 03:08:43,060
I want to thank the people who did

5472
03:08:43,060 --> 03:08:44,160
donate and help the show.

5473
03:08:44,160 --> 03:08:44,580
Yes.

5474
03:08:44,780 --> 03:08:47,620
And with your Super Bowl winnings, you can

5475
03:08:47,620 --> 03:08:49,620
support the best podcast in the universe.

5476
03:08:49,760 --> 03:08:51,240
We look forward to that, of course.

5477
03:08:51,700 --> 03:08:53,340
And we're into a new month, February.

5478
03:08:53,640 --> 03:08:54,540
January's over, everybody.

5479
03:08:54,660 --> 03:08:55,340
Get back with it.

5480
03:08:55,560 --> 03:08:57,460
You saved all that money with Dry January.

5481
03:08:57,640 --> 03:08:58,440
You're good to go.

5482
03:08:58,620 --> 03:08:59,140

5483
03:08:59,320 --> 03:09:00,720

And if you'd like to support us on

5485
03:09:02,840 --> 03:09:05,600
an ongoing basis, we appreciate those sustaining donations.

5486

frequency, daily, weekly, showly, whatever you want to

5490
03:09:13,960 --> 03:09:15,860
do, noagendadonations.com.

5491
03:09:15,960 --> 03:09:18,720
Once again, that's noagendadonations.com.

5492
03:09:22,220 --> 03:09:25,980
And as a public service, we're always happy

5493
03:09:25,980 --> 03:09:27,480
to put people on our birthday calendar.

5494
03:09:27,620 --> 03:09:30,020
The Baron of Old Bay turned 58 on

5495
03:09:30,020 --> 03:09:30,900
February 8th.

5496
03:09:30,920 --> 03:09:34,100
And Charles Meebok, my buck, turned 34 on

5497
03:09:34,100 --> 03:09:34,900
February 8th.

5498
03:09:35,380 --> 03:09:38,360
Kevin McKenna wishes his son, Grayson, a happy

5499
03:09:38,360 --> 03:09:38,720
birthday.

5500
03:09:38,920 --> 03:09:40,400
He celebrates tomorrow.

5501
03:09:41,020 --> 03:09:45,700
And dude named Brian celebrates on the 11th.

5502
03:09:45,740 --> 03:09:48,040
And the love of his life, his cadet,

5503
03:09:48,260 --> 03:09:50,940
the total smoke show, Megan, celebrates her birthday

5504
03:09:50,940 --> 03:09:51,660
on the 13th.

5505
03:09:51,740 --> 03:09:53,660
Happy birthday, everybody, from everyone here at the

5506
03:09:53,660 --> 03:09:55,320
best podcast in the universe.

5507
03:09:57,020 --> 03:09:59,060
And we're going to skip over titles and

5508
03:09:59,060 --> 03:10:00,920
nights and dames because there are none today.

5509
03:10:01,040 --> 03:10:02,380
So we go straight to the meetups.

5510
03:10:10,100 --> 03:10:12,000
The No Agenda Meetups is where you get

5511
03:10:12,000 --> 03:10:13,500
connection that will give you protection.

5512
03:10:13,680 --> 03:10:15,480
These are your first responders in an emergency.

5513
03:10:15,780 --> 03:10:17,200
These are producer-organized.

5514
03:10:17,280 --> 03:10:20,580
Everyone sets them up at noagendadonations...

5515
03:10:20,580 --> 03:10:21,600
noagendameetups.com.

5516
03:10:22,060 --> 03:10:23,760
And by the way, this is not for

5517
03:10:23,760 --> 03:10:24,960
concerts where you're going to meet.

5518
03:10:25,060 --> 03:10:28,800
These are separate meetups that you organize in

5519
03:10:28,800 --> 03:10:30,600
a bar or some other place at someone's

5520
03:10:30,600 --> 03:10:30,880
home.

5521
03:10:31,160 --> 03:10:33,540
So there's no entrance fee for anything.

5522
03:10:33,820 --> 03:10:36,720
It is purely for producer-organized gatherings.

5523
03:10:37,580 --> 03:10:38,820
That is a rule.

5524
03:10:38,960 --> 03:10:40,240
We're going to have to clarify that on

5525
03:10:40,240 --> 03:10:41,600
the meetup site, and we will.

5526
03:10:42,120 --> 03:10:44,200
And the rules are followed by the Boise,

5527
03:10:44,340 --> 03:10:45,040
Idaho, people.

5528
03:10:45,480 --> 03:10:46,880
In the morning, John and Adam, this is

5529
03:10:46,880 --> 03:10:49,240
Jason from the Boise, Idaho, meetup.

5530
03:10:49,640 --> 03:10:51,380
And I'm going to pass it along so

5531
03:10:51,380 --> 03:10:52,440
everybody can say hi.

5532
03:10:52,800 --> 03:10:54,480
Hey there, it's Jen from Idaho.

5533
03:10:55,140 --> 03:10:56,520
Oh, Dame Jen from Idaho.

5534
03:10:56,940 --> 03:10:59,060
I'm still trying to get that dangly balls

5535
03:10:59,060 --> 03:11:00,700
and double dicks donations going.

5536
03:11:00,820 --> 03:11:02,240
So ladies, come on, let's go.

5537
03:11:02,500 --> 03:11:05,100
Hi, this is Xenia, the German from Boise,

5538
03:11:05,140 --> 03:11:05,540
Idaho.

5539
03:11:06,020 --> 03:11:08,560
This is Mike from Donley in the morning.

5540
03:11:09,020 --> 03:11:11,640
Eric here just reminding everybody, donate, you douchebag.

5541
03:11:11,880 --> 03:11:13,720
Karen here wearing my Maha hat.

5542
03:11:13,860 --> 03:11:17,620
Maybe this time next week we'll have RFKJ

5543
03:11:17,620 --> 03:11:18,140
in.

5544
03:11:18,920 --> 03:11:20,820
This is Bruce from Star, and I want

5545
03:11:20,820 --> 03:11:22,240
to point out we are in Eagle, not

5546
03:11:22,240 --> 03:11:24,200
in Boise, but the greater Boise area.

5547
03:11:24,520 --> 03:11:25,820
People should come out and join us and

5548
03:11:25,820 --> 03:11:26,380
have some fun.

5549
03:11:26,720 --> 03:11:28,080
This is Megan from Boise.

5550
03:11:28,640 --> 03:11:30,000
This is Dave from Boise.

5551
03:11:30,540 --> 03:11:31,680
Bring in big balls.

5552
03:11:34,440 --> 03:11:37,120
A random, random number donation.

5553
03:11:37,300 --> 03:11:39,360
We had two meetups in Idaho.

5554
03:11:39,520 --> 03:11:40,280
That was Boise.

5555
03:11:40,500 --> 03:11:43,540
Here's a very busy meetup that took place

5556
03:11:43,540 --> 03:11:44,480
in North Idaho.

5557
03:11:44,620 --> 03:11:45,860
Hey, it's Sir Scott the Jew.

5558
03:11:46,040 --> 03:11:48,080
We're here with the North Idaho Sanity Brigade

5559
03:11:48,080 --> 03:11:49,920
at the Trails End Brewery in Coeur d

5560
03:11:49,920 --> 03:11:50,200
'Alene.

5561
03:11:50,680 --> 03:11:52,920
I tried to order dessert, but the waitress

5562
03:11:52,920 --> 03:11:54,720
had never heard of a stroopwafel.

5563
03:11:54,900 --> 03:11:58,120
In the morning, Danica here, Scott Smokinghouse, what?

5564
03:11:58,340 --> 03:12:01,340
Sir Ellie Fox here in the morning.

5565
03:12:01,620 --> 03:12:03,400
This is Sir Donald of the Fire Bottles.

5566
03:12:03,580 --> 03:12:04,520
That can tube's good.

5567
03:12:04,800 --> 03:12:05,600
Transistor's bad.

5568
03:12:05,820 --> 03:12:09,040
Sir Devo here, shapeshifting back between Montana and

5569
03:12:09,040 --> 03:12:10,380
Spokane and now Idaho.

5570
03:12:10,580 --> 03:12:11,800
It's Red the Gold Digger.

5571
03:12:11,980 --> 03:12:13,400
Can I be a cowgirl now that I

5572
03:12:13,400 --> 03:12:13,920
own cows?

5573
03:12:14,260 --> 03:12:16,900
This is Brian out of Spokane.

5574
03:12:17,220 --> 03:12:18,320
No, no, no.

5575
03:12:18,560 --> 03:12:20,840
I do my spooking in Spokane, but this

5576
03:12:20,840 --> 03:12:22,140
is Brian out of Post Falls.

5577
03:12:22,420 --> 03:12:23,940
This is Lacey from Post Falls.

5578
03:12:24,020 --> 03:12:25,740
I don't say nothing because I'm a doucher.

5579
03:12:25,840 --> 03:12:27,400
This is Spook of Spokane.

5580
03:12:27,660 --> 03:12:30,380
Wondering why I'm using crutches in the snow.

5581
03:12:30,620 --> 03:12:32,620
Oh, that must be due to climate change.

5582
03:12:32,680 --> 03:12:34,240
Dame Jen with a G here.

5583
03:12:34,500 --> 03:12:37,320
Instead of prescribing Ozempic, I think I'll just

5584
03:12:37,320 --> 03:12:39,440
refer people to TooManyEggs.com.

5585
03:12:39,500 --> 03:12:40,580
This is a dude named Jeff.

5586
03:12:40,780 --> 03:12:41,920
I'm Miss Roundy.

5587
03:12:42,120 --> 03:12:43,660
In the morning, this is Jason from Post

5588
03:12:43,660 --> 03:12:44,260
Falls, Idaho.

5589
03:12:44,400 --> 03:12:45,760
Thumbs up for the tip of the day

5590
03:12:45,760 --> 03:12:48,300
for the Ching Wong Tung's burn cream.

5591
03:12:48,540 --> 03:12:50,020
That worked amazing.

5592
03:12:50,220 --> 03:12:51,020
It saved my life.

5593
03:12:51,140 --> 03:12:52,860
I thought you guys were amazing.

5594
03:12:53,020 --> 03:12:54,180
You guys were all very, very friendly.

5595
03:12:54,440 --> 03:12:55,540
Everything went really well.

5596
03:12:55,880 --> 03:12:57,660
Got a little confused when you shouted something

5597
03:12:57,660 --> 03:12:58,440
about worms.

5598
03:12:58,980 --> 03:13:00,720
It was like everybody downstairs thought it might

5599
03:13:00,720 --> 03:13:02,160
be a little cult-like, but I think

5600
03:13:02,160 --> 03:13:02,740
it was okay.

5601
03:13:02,900 --> 03:13:03,620
I think it was good.

5602
03:13:03,780 --> 03:13:06,160
They're eating the ball of worms.

5603
03:13:06,560 --> 03:13:08,920
Now that's a meetup report with the server

5604
03:13:08,920 --> 03:13:10,920
in there talking about us being a cult

5605
03:13:10,920 --> 03:13:12,040
but still liking it.

5606
03:13:12,120 --> 03:13:12,520
Beautiful.

5607
03:13:13,580 --> 03:13:14,580
Very good, North Idaho.

5608
03:13:14,700 --> 03:13:17,180
We go to the February Club 33 barbecue

5609
03:13:17,180 --> 03:13:18,800
and Bitcoin in Fort Wayne.

5610
03:13:19,100 --> 03:13:20,700
Adam and John, this is Shannon helping co

5611
03:13:20,700 --> 03:13:21,560
-host in Fort Wayne.

5612
03:13:21,940 --> 03:13:23,380
We had barbecue and Bitcoin.

5613
03:13:23,760 --> 03:13:24,540
It was a hell of a turnout.

5614
03:13:24,860 --> 03:13:26,820
Dame Trinity having a great time in Fort

5615
03:13:26,820 --> 03:13:27,140
Wayne.

5616
03:13:27,860 --> 03:13:30,080
In the morning, John and Adam for PBR

5617
03:13:30,080 --> 03:13:30,700
Street Gang.

5618
03:13:30,940 --> 03:13:31,920
Hey, whatever happened to Zippy?

5619
03:13:32,460 --> 03:13:33,960
In the morning, I'm David, and I'm here

5620
03:13:33,960 --> 03:13:35,280
to tell you that if you ain't shigging,

5621
03:13:35,340 --> 03:13:36,340
you're either losing or lying.

5622
03:13:36,760 --> 03:13:37,440
This is Mike.

5623
03:13:37,560 --> 03:13:40,420
In the morning, I'm wondering what Elon's 30

5624
03:13:40,420 --> 03:13:41,860
-second ads are going to be doing on

5625
03:13:41,860 --> 03:13:42,480
the Super Bowl.

5626
03:13:42,660 --> 03:13:43,600
It should be interesting.

5627
03:13:44,280 --> 03:13:44,920
In the morning.

5628
03:13:45,220 --> 03:13:46,260
In the morning.

5629
03:13:46,720 --> 03:13:50,700
And finally from Snohomish, Washington, the Snohomo meetup.

5630
03:13:50,700 --> 03:13:52,300
In the morning, this is Jorge.

5631
03:13:52,480 --> 03:13:53,800
I'm here with a lovely group of people

5632
03:13:53,800 --> 03:13:57,080
for the second Snohomish No Agenda meetup.

5633
03:13:57,480 --> 03:13:58,540
I'm going to pass whatever.

5634
03:13:58,760 --> 03:14:00,000
We're going to pass the phone along.

5635
03:14:00,620 --> 03:14:01,240
Here we go.

5636
03:14:01,460 --> 03:14:02,640
In the morning, this is Savannah.

5637
03:14:03,280 --> 03:14:05,440
This is the official petition to get John

5638
03:14:05,440 --> 03:14:05,920
on Rogan.

5639
03:14:06,220 --> 03:14:06,660
Yeah, there we go.

5640
03:14:06,720 --> 03:14:08,800
In the morning, this is Sir Jack Ash,

5641
03:14:09,420 --> 03:14:11,620
the Narcissist Sasquatch here at the Club of

5642
03:14:11,620 --> 03:14:14,860
Fellow Sophisticates in the Snowtown Brewing, Snohomish, Washington.

5643
03:14:15,700 --> 03:14:16,680
Have you guys have a good time?

5644
03:14:16,860 --> 03:14:18,940
In the morning, this is Michelle with a

5645
03:14:18,940 --> 03:14:20,040
fabulous group.

5646
03:14:20,140 --> 03:14:22,420
This is Steve with my daily blurb, Elon

5647
03:14:22,420 --> 03:14:22,960
Musk.

5648
03:14:23,160 --> 03:14:24,780
This is the Lord of the Redtail Ranch,

5649
03:14:24,880 --> 03:14:27,560
Knight Emeritus, and I don't have my ring.

5650
03:14:27,680 --> 03:14:29,140
I've never ordered it.

5651
03:14:29,620 --> 03:14:30,960
I got to get with the program.

5652
03:14:31,380 --> 03:14:31,820
Daniel here.

5653
03:14:31,940 --> 03:14:34,140
I queried the GRAND database, and I can

5654
03:14:34,140 --> 03:14:36,880
confirm that this meetup is not USAID funded.

5655
03:14:37,120 --> 03:14:39,060
And that is it for our meetup reports.

5656
03:14:39,200 --> 03:14:41,600
There's a meetup happening on Thursday, the 13th,

5657
03:14:41,640 --> 03:14:43,600
the Outer Swamp meetup in New York.

5658
03:14:43,960 --> 03:14:46,020
No, New York time, six o'clock, Java

5659
03:14:46,020 --> 03:14:46,400
Nation.

5660
03:14:46,740 --> 03:14:48,820
That's in Rockland, Maryland, actually, kind of a

5661
03:14:48,820 --> 03:14:49,480
spookish place.

5662
03:14:49,900 --> 03:14:51,960
And also on Thursday, the Shrunken Amygdala Support

5663
03:14:51,960 --> 03:14:53,980

Many more to be found at noagendameetups.com.

5666
03:14:59,520 --> 03:15:00,720
Get it together, people.

5667
03:15:00,940 --> 03:15:04,160
You will love hanging out with your fellow

5668
03:15:04,160 --> 03:15:07,280
No Agenda Nation citizens and human resources.

5669
03:15:07,440 --> 03:15:08,960
Go to noagendameetups.com.

5670
03:15:09,040 --> 03:15:11,100
If you can't find one near you, start

5671
03:15:11,100 --> 03:15:11,780
one yourself.

5672
03:15:11,780 --> 03:15:13,020
It's so easy.

5673
03:15:32,180 --> 03:15:34,440
You've been knocking it out of the park

5674
03:15:34,440 --> 03:15:37,340
on the ISOs in the last few shows.

5675
03:15:37,340 --> 03:15:41,720
You've got some kind of trove you've been

5676
03:15:41,720 --> 03:15:42,500
pulling them from.

5677
03:15:42,740 --> 03:15:43,600
So I do have two.

5678
03:15:43,720 --> 03:15:46,540
I don't know if I'll make even a

5679
03:15:46,540 --> 03:15:48,040
dent in your ISO.

5680
03:15:48,240 --> 03:15:49,500
So I shall go first.

5681
03:15:49,580 --> 03:15:50,440
Here's the first one.

5682
03:15:53,820 --> 03:15:55,440
I kind of thought that was cute.

5683
03:15:55,640 --> 03:15:56,720
They're eating the ball of worms.

5684
03:15:56,960 --> 03:15:58,260
And then this one.

5685
03:15:58,600 --> 03:15:58,700
Wow.

5686
03:15:59,320 --> 03:15:59,760
Whoa.

5687
03:16:01,100 --> 03:16:01,900
That's not bad.

5688
03:16:02,040 --> 03:16:02,640
Yeah, I know.

5689
03:16:02,840 --> 03:16:03,660
I thought you'd like it.

5690
03:16:04,100 --> 03:16:04,480
I have two.

5691
03:16:04,720 --> 03:16:04,960
Okay.

5692
03:16:05,480 --> 03:16:07,580
I have a thanks.

5693
03:16:07,960 --> 03:16:08,420
Thanks, Elsa.

5694
03:16:09,120 --> 03:16:09,900
Thanks, awesome.

5695
03:16:09,980 --> 03:16:10,420
Is that what it was?

5696
03:16:14,200 --> 03:16:16,760
Well, then let's try this one.

5697
03:16:16,880 --> 03:16:17,160
Excellent.

5698
03:16:17,460 --> 03:16:17,740
Excellent.

5699
03:16:17,960 --> 03:16:19,240
I could listen to another hour.

5700
03:16:19,540 --> 03:16:21,900
I can never win from these.

5701
03:16:22,000 --> 03:16:23,140
Where are you getting these from?

5702
03:16:23,220 --> 03:16:24,160
These are so good.

5703
03:16:24,700 --> 03:16:25,420
Books on tape.

5704
03:16:25,640 --> 03:16:25,740
There.

5705
03:16:26,480 --> 03:16:28,560
And now, everybody, it's time for the moment

5706
03:16:28,560 --> 03:16:29,400
you've been waiting for.

5707
03:16:29,500 --> 03:16:31,120
John's tip of the day.

5708
03:16:34,960 --> 03:16:37,660
Just a tip with JCB.

5709
03:16:38,160 --> 03:16:39,980
And sometimes Adam.

5710
03:16:40,740 --> 03:16:41,840
Created by Dana Brunetti.

5711
03:16:42,200 --> 03:16:44,120
And I do want to remind everybody, you

5712
03:16:44,120 --> 03:16:47,800
can find these tips at tipoftheday.net, but

5713
03:16:47,800 --> 03:16:51,560
also on noagendafun.com, which has a lot

5714
03:16:51,560 --> 03:16:52,620
of our other staples.

5715
03:16:52,620 --> 03:16:55,080
I find noagendafun.com to be a more

5716
03:16:55,080 --> 03:16:55,880
complete list.

5717
03:16:56,160 --> 03:17:00,000
It's also, well, nothing against tipoftheday.net, but

5718
03:17:00,000 --> 03:17:03,760
noagendafun.com definitely has a lot of other

5719
03:17:03,760 --> 03:17:04,080
stuff.

5720
03:17:04,160 --> 03:17:06,380
Our books, the movies, the TV shows we

5721
03:17:06,380 --> 03:17:06,980
talk about.

5722
03:17:07,100 --> 03:17:08,060
It's just, it's fun.

5723
03:17:08,220 --> 03:17:11,320
It's noagendafun.com, but also tipoftheday.net.

5724
03:17:11,360 --> 03:17:12,780
And we are all excited.

5725
03:17:12,880 --> 03:17:13,620
I will say this.

5726
03:17:13,700 --> 03:17:18,360
What's missing from noagendafun.com is toomanyeggs.com.

5727
03:17:18,380 --> 03:17:19,080
Oh, no.

5728
03:17:19,320 --> 03:17:19,620
Plug.

5729
03:17:19,800 --> 03:17:22,360
Oh, that is just a travesty.

5730
03:17:22,860 --> 03:17:23,700
Yeah, I think so.

5731
03:17:23,800 --> 03:17:24,200
Okay.

5732
03:17:26,020 --> 03:17:28,220
So, yeah, I got another tip here.

5733
03:17:28,280 --> 03:17:29,580
This is an interesting one.

5734
03:17:29,580 --> 03:17:35,340
Another website called, the product is called Inpaint.

5735
03:17:36,020 --> 03:17:36,620
Inpaint?

5736
03:17:37,420 --> 03:17:40,320
Inpaint, like N-I-N-paint, but the

5737
03:17:40,320 --> 03:17:45,840
website's actually theinpaint.com, theinpaint.com.

5738
03:17:46,120 --> 03:17:47,560
And this gives you, you know, there's all

5739
03:17:47,560 --> 03:17:49,620
these, you know, this is probably the best

5740
03:17:49,620 --> 03:17:53,740
of all these artificial intelligence removal tools.

5741
03:17:54,020 --> 03:17:55,980
So you have a photo and you got

5742
03:17:55,980 --> 03:17:58,500
your ex-boyfriend, your ex-girlfriend in the

5743
03:17:58,500 --> 03:18:02,280
photo, you click on her, boom, she's gone.

5744
03:18:03,880 --> 03:18:05,060
How does that go again?

5745
03:18:07,360 --> 03:18:08,160
Theinpaint.com.

5746
03:18:08,220 --> 03:18:09,260
No, how does it go with the ex

5747
03:18:09,260 --> 03:18:09,740
-girlfriend?

5748
03:18:10,860 --> 03:18:12,420
Boom, she's gone.

5749
03:18:15,200 --> 03:18:16,340
I don't know if that's going to work.

5750
03:18:16,400 --> 03:18:17,240
It might not.

5751
03:18:18,060 --> 03:18:20,680
But because I've always wanted one of these

5752
03:18:20,680 --> 03:18:22,280
for a regular, just a computer, because they

5753
03:18:22,280 --> 03:18:23,160
have them on phones.

5754
03:18:23,300 --> 03:18:24,260
You know, you always take a picture of

5755
03:18:24,260 --> 03:18:26,620
your phone with a pixel, pixel six, a

5756
03:18:26,620 --> 03:18:27,740
pixel seven, whatever it is.

5757
03:18:28,060 --> 03:18:29,940
And you all look and you tap on

5758
03:18:29,940 --> 03:18:33,040
the person, poof, disappears.

5759
03:18:33,780 --> 03:18:36,020
Well, this is another version of that same

5760
03:18:36,020 --> 03:18:36,600
kind of technology.

5761
03:18:36,600 --> 03:18:37,160
And is it free?

5762
03:18:37,300 --> 03:18:37,780
Is it free?

5763
03:18:37,940 --> 03:18:38,280
Is it free?

5764
03:18:38,300 --> 03:18:38,760
It's free.

5765
03:18:38,840 --> 03:18:39,460
It's free.

5766
03:18:39,580 --> 03:18:40,380
How do they do it?

5767
03:18:40,440 --> 03:18:42,280
How do they do this with this AI?

5768
03:18:42,420 --> 03:18:43,220
It's all free.

5769
03:18:44,220 --> 03:18:44,760
It's amazing.

5770
03:18:46,180 --> 03:18:49,180
Yes, and expect it to disappear one of

5771
03:18:49,180 --> 03:18:50,220
these days completely.

5772
03:18:50,580 --> 03:18:51,160
That's right.

5773
03:18:51,200 --> 03:18:52,800
Everybody, there it is, your tip of the

5774
03:18:52,800 --> 03:18:53,060
day.

5775
03:18:53,060 --> 03:18:55,820
tipoftheday.net, noagendafund.com.

5776
03:19:06,460 --> 03:19:07,480
That's right, everybody.

5777
03:19:07,660 --> 03:19:08,380
There you go.

5778
03:19:09,180 --> 03:19:12,000
We are well on time to get ready

5779
03:19:12,000 --> 03:19:12,840
for the big game.

5780
03:19:12,980 --> 03:19:13,980
The big, big, big game.

5781
03:19:14,100 --> 03:19:15,300
We're so excited about the big game.

5782
03:19:15,440 --> 03:19:17,940
The big game will be played and I

5783
03:19:17,940 --> 03:19:19,040
will be rooting for the birds.

5784
03:19:19,140 --> 03:19:19,780
Go birds.

5785
03:19:19,940 --> 03:19:22,020
E-G-E-L-E-S-E.

5786
03:19:22,020 --> 03:19:22,680
Eagles.

5787
03:19:25,140 --> 03:19:25,540
Yes.

5788
03:19:26,000 --> 03:19:27,740
For those of you who do not want

5789
03:19:27,740 --> 03:19:29,600
to watch the Super Bowl, stick around because

5790
03:19:29,600 --> 03:19:32,000
coming up next on the stream, noagenda.stream,

5791
03:19:32,100 --> 03:19:34,220
trollroom.io if you want to troll or,

5792
03:19:34,400 --> 03:19:36,420
of course, your modern podcast app, we got

5793
03:19:36,420 --> 03:19:38,920
just two good old boys coming up next.

5794
03:19:39,000 --> 03:19:40,020
Two good old boys.

5795
03:19:40,140 --> 03:19:41,560
I think that's Sir Gene, one of the

5796
03:19:41,560 --> 03:19:43,800
two good old boys and some dude named

5797
03:19:43,800 --> 03:19:44,100
Ban.

5798
03:19:45,780 --> 03:19:48,240
And, of course, we have some very relevant

5799
03:19:48,240 --> 03:19:49,440
end of show mixes.

5800
03:19:50,080 --> 03:19:53,720
We've got David Kekta, always comes in with

5801
03:19:53,720 --> 03:19:54,060
something.

5802
03:19:54,220 --> 03:19:55,320
Danny Luce is back.

5803
03:19:55,460 --> 03:19:56,180
Good to have Danny.

5804
03:19:57,260 --> 03:20:01,100
Danny is, I'm glad he's back calming down.

5805
03:20:01,360 --> 03:20:02,700
He's a little worried about stuff in the

5806
03:20:02,700 --> 03:20:02,880
world.

5807
03:20:03,160 --> 03:20:05,640
And also some Chris, Sir Chris Wilson stuck

5808
03:20:05,640 --> 03:20:06,080
in there.

5809
03:20:06,520 --> 03:20:07,680
Coming to you from the heart of the

5810
03:20:07,680 --> 03:20:10,200
Texas Hill Country here in Fredericksburg in the

5811
03:20:10,200 --> 03:20:10,880
morning, everybody.

5812
03:20:11,040 --> 03:20:12,220
I'm Adam Curry.

5813
03:20:12,940 --> 03:20:14,800
Ban from northern Silicon Valley.

5814
03:20:15,180 --> 03:20:16,560
We're at Super Bowl Sunday.

5815
03:20:16,560 --> 03:20:18,780
The kickoff is at 3.30, they say,

5816
03:20:18,840 --> 03:20:19,440
but it won't be.

5817
03:20:19,560 --> 03:20:20,120
I guarantee it.

5818
03:20:20,140 --> 03:20:20,600
I'm John C.

5819
03:20:20,700 --> 03:20:20,980
Duvorak.

5820
03:20:21,040 --> 03:20:24,380
We return on Thursday with more media deconstruction

5821
03:20:24,380 --> 03:20:24,900
right here.

5822
03:20:25,280 --> 03:20:27,460
Remember us at noagenthedonation.com.

5823
03:20:27,580 --> 03:20:30,780
Until then, adios, mofos, hui hui, and such.

5824
03:20:55,800 --> 03:21:00,440
USAID wearing masks to protect themselves from musk.

5825
03:21:01,120 --> 03:21:03,200
This is a fearmonger.

5826
03:21:03,620 --> 03:21:04,340
Dictatorship.

5827
03:21:04,500 --> 03:21:05,220
Dictatorship.

5828
03:21:05,600 --> 03:21:08,380
We're not going to have apartheid in America

5829
03:21:08,380 --> 03:21:09,420
anymore.

5830
03:21:15,050 --> 03:21:16,410
That's what we think he is.

5831
03:21:16,690 --> 03:21:20,710
He has absolutely no right in shutting down

5832
03:21:20,710 --> 03:21:21,930
USAID.

5833
03:21:22,310 --> 03:21:24,030
We cannot allow that.

5834
03:21:24,310 --> 03:21:25,750
We've got to take to the streets.

5835
03:21:25,890 --> 03:21:28,370
First and foremost, f*** your musk.

5836
03:21:28,930 --> 03:21:32,090
Suppressive efforts to undermine federal agencies with the

5837
03:21:32,090 --> 03:21:33,150
help of Elon Musk.

5838
03:21:33,450 --> 03:21:35,790
His latest victim is the U.S. Agency

5839
03:21:35,790 --> 03:21:38,150
for International Development, or USAID.

5840
03:21:38,870 --> 03:21:40,930
This is the magic of Steve Jobs.

5841
03:21:41,530 --> 03:21:44,330
Well, these guys have literally- I'm telling

5842
03:21:44,330 --> 03:21:45,930
you, nobody wants to believe me when I

5843
03:21:45,930 --> 03:21:47,870
say this, but they've sold themselves out to

5844
03:21:47,870 --> 03:21:48,790
evil forces.

5845
03:21:49,130 --> 03:21:50,710
It creates this magic around them.

5846
03:21:50,730 --> 03:21:51,850
This has nothing you can do about it.

5847
03:21:52,230 --> 03:21:53,590
You mean white black magic?

5848
03:21:54,510 --> 03:21:55,610
Yeah, black magic.

5849
03:21:55,610 --> 03:21:58,310
That's why, in some cases, they have to

5850
03:21:58,310 --> 03:21:59,830
wear the black turtleneck.

5851
03:21:59,830 --> 03:22:01,050
They're always wearing black turtlenecks.

5852
03:22:01,950 --> 03:22:04,070
Yeah, it's part of the- part of

5853
03:22:04,070 --> 03:22:04,810
black turtleneck.

5854
03:22:04,830 --> 03:22:06,650
Yells above rules.

5855
03:22:07,050 --> 03:22:08,750
The same thing with Elizabeth Holmes.

5856
03:22:09,350 --> 03:22:11,870
Make you fat, feel wealthy, but you've got

5857
03:22:11,870 --> 03:22:12,710
to wear the turtleneck.

5858
03:22:12,730 --> 03:22:13,670
Otherwise, it doesn't work.

5859
03:22:32,110 --> 03:22:35,790
I've got a black magic Elon, he's trying

5860
03:22:35,790 --> 03:22:38,050
to get a hundo out of me.

5861
03:22:39,630 --> 03:22:41,150
Cervical cancer is back.

5862
03:22:41,330 --> 03:22:43,090
I made my son's get it immediately.

5863
03:22:43,410 --> 03:22:45,650
Because they don't know anything.

5864
03:22:45,850 --> 03:22:47,550
They do not have knowledge.

5865
03:22:47,830 --> 03:22:49,910
And who the hell does Musk think he

5866
03:22:49,910 --> 03:22:50,230
is?

5867
03:22:50,310 --> 03:22:52,530
There's the Nazi nipple, baby.

5868
03:22:52,790 --> 03:22:53,750
Not conscious.

5869
03:22:54,070 --> 03:22:54,670
I get it.

5870
03:22:54,670 --> 03:22:55,570
Not- no, no, no.

5871
03:22:55,670 --> 03:22:56,690
Not- just not conscious.

5872
03:23:00,770 --> 03:23:02,950
They don't know anything.

5873
03:23:03,390 --> 03:23:05,550
Really obvious why anyone would pay for Chad

5874
03:23:05,550 --> 03:23:06,810
GPT Plus at all.

5875
03:23:06,950 --> 03:23:08,690
I made my son's get it immediately.

5876
03:23:09,310 --> 03:23:10,750
Pretending to be outraged.

5877
03:23:10,930 --> 03:23:11,870
They make mistakes.

5878
03:23:12,050 --> 03:23:13,730
Oh, you want to use our money.

5879
03:23:13,890 --> 03:23:16,310
20 million on a new Sesame Street show

5880
03:23:16,310 --> 03:23:19,070
in Iran to combat disinformation in Kazakhstan.

5881
03:23:19,730 --> 03:23:21,410
We want humor.

5882
03:23:21,530 --> 03:23:22,990
We want humor.

5883
03:23:24,390 --> 03:23:25,790
That's the kind of thing that you should

5884
03:23:25,790 --> 03:23:27,470
get fired from a company, if they should

5885
03:23:27,470 --> 03:23:28,630
boot you out the door.

5886
03:23:29,450 --> 03:23:31,490
The reduction in the info jam is happening

5887
03:23:31,490 --> 03:23:33,010
with providers who are using Nabla.

5888
03:23:33,190 --> 03:23:35,270
Nabla is the AI software company.

5889
03:23:35,430 --> 03:23:36,950
We have to fight this in the Congress.

5890
03:23:37,130 --> 03:23:38,790
We have to fight this in the streets.

5891
03:23:39,730 --> 03:23:43,910
I made my son's get it immediately.

5892
03:23:44,970 --> 03:23:46,850
No, not this Nabla.

5893
03:23:47,170 --> 03:23:48,650
Nabla should boot you out the door.

5894
03:23:48,650 --> 03:23:50,330
You don't have thoughts.

5895
03:23:50,570 --> 03:23:52,770
You don't even know how these things fully

5896
03:23:52,770 --> 03:23:53,190
function.

5897
03:23:53,990 --> 03:23:55,390
Men ran it in the worst way.

5898
03:23:55,650 --> 03:23:56,990
I made my sons get it.

5899
03:23:57,170 --> 03:23:59,810
Hard times in America anymore.

5900
03:23:59,990 --> 03:24:02,110
They do not have knowledge.

5901
03:24:02,370 --> 03:24:04,950
Yes, I'm not sure how, baby.

5902
03:24:05,190 --> 03:24:06,710
The cervical cancer is back.

5903
03:24:06,970 --> 03:24:08,990
Alright, we've got to take to the streets.

5904
03:24:12,820 --> 03:24:16,780
The best podcast in the universe.

5905
03:24:16,960 --> 03:24:18,260
Adios, mofo.

5906
03:24:18,260 --> 03:24:23,020
Dvorak.org Slash N-A Excellent.

5907
03:24:23,280 --> 03:24:24,500
I could listen to another hour.
