I never thought about it much
but I
think you might be right
Adam curry this is no agenda
morning
everybody
I'm Adam curry and if I'm doing
the
Silicon Valley I'm here with
some Jake
mints throat and chest and his
flavored
menthol cough suppressant they
throw you
off track with my 2020 exit did
you be
thinking about it I heard that
yeah
totally had me oh my god no
yeah oh yeah John and I were
talking
after the last show which we
rarely do
except during choosing art well
yeah
yeah yeah yeah and I realized
this
morning again it's like
everyone's
announcing we're two years
ahead of an
election I think you and I
really only
can do 24 months of this and
then we'll
just either you know we have to
just
need to stop thinking about
this it just
might be time to let some
younger folk
in to do this that's therein
lies the
rub
what well the problem oh there
goes the
Zephyr ah one two three four
five six
seven eight eight only wait
what holy
mackerel this is small is
Zephyr I've
ever seen yes therein lies the
rub you
said yeah therein lies the rub
of do
tell but the problem is the
dimensionality of our show
really
realizing the fact that both of
us are
very we're old yeah we
experienced exit
stories I have experience in
fact I have
the kinds of experiences
including
working during the summer when
I was in
high school
and I think even maybe the
eighth grade
because there were jobs
available for
kids it was like not not
uncommon and
where you get a lot of you know
varied
you get varied experience and
then you
can relate some of the things
you've
learned over a long period of
time it's
pretty hard for somebody to
just waltz
in and you know with book
learning and
really be able to accomplish
what we do
okay but still that's nothing
to do with
us we're just gonna be so tired
of this
crap son believable it's hard
it's a
hard job protecting people's
amygdala
well it is doesn't the media
course
doesn't help at all my favorite
thing
was the I saw it for two or
three places
and I'm noticing this and I've
said I've
talked about on the show before
but now
I realize it's one of those
code words
that the left uses when they do
their
writing oh just two signals
this word
the time oh you know I'm on
your side
and the word is or the word is
a phrase
lashed out yes yes Amy does all
the time
I know said Mother Jones
there's a big
headline Donald Trump lashed
out at a
navy 34-year Navy SEAL let's
talk about
McRaven who's actually a
four-star
Admiral which is a little more
impressive than being a seal
right but
apparently everybody else felt
being a
seal was more important and
it's easy
for the same lashed out so I
get found
where he lashed out and this is
this is
McRaven lashes out or trap
lashes start
just eclipses McRaven bill
McRaven
retired Admiral Navy SEAL 37
years
former head of US special
operator is
Lynn fan special operation is
made
Hillary Clinton fan who led the
operations command of the
operations
that took us on the same and
that killed
Osama bin Laden it says that
your
sentiment is the greatest
threat to
democracy in his life he's a
Hillary
Clinton backer and an Obama
backer and
frankly he's a Navy SEAL give
them nice
if we got Osama bin Laden a lot
sooner
than that
that's sure what he said that
bet you're
lashing out I don't know if it
would
have made any difference if we
got him
any sooner than we got him well
the
thing that was interesting in
that clip
and you couldn't quite hear is
that as
Trump is complaining about
McRaven uh
Chris Wallace is rolling his
eyes no no
he's a gassed at everything he
says but
he's a 37 year Navy SEAL as if
that's
some sort of uh I guess when
you you're
if you're a Navy SEAL fighter I
don't
think it was worked as a sadly
he worked
as a seal no probably doing
demolition
for 37 years
but he was it was a seal for 37
years he
says that as though it's some
sort of
you makes him an untouchable
you can't
you can't say anything about
these guys
well that was that that's the
elite of
our armed forces who need to be
at war
continuously they they are the
true
heroes
there was also he was also this
was part
of a series of interviews Chris
Rock
Wallace did with Trump and I
want to
play a short part of another
one is a
152 clip it's not the whole
thing but
I'm gonna set it up this is
Chris
Wallace and Trump and and it's
discussing fake news where
Wallace talks
about fake news and and does
the correct
Trump quote but very slowly
still finds
that if you say fake news is
the enemy
of the people you are saying
and Wallace
is totally convinced to this
you are
saying the media oh really
so it's not the fake news it's
the main
news according to Chris I mean
if you
listen to him in the way he
defends that
or attacks Trump but
essentially he is
he is flabbergasted Trump keeps
trying -
no I'm saying fake news I'm not
Tom I
thought he didn't like the
media make
news fake news wait a minute
and who is
he talking with Chris Wallace
of Fox by
the way I will say this if you
heard the
other if you heard any of this
stuff
it's so obvious that Chris
Wallace is a
major Democrat I think just
just to
reiterate for any anyone who's
relative
he knew because we haven't
actually just
broach this topic in a couple
of months
the Trump and the way we always
understood it was Trump said
fake news
is the enemy of the people not
the
journalists not Free Press not
the the
news media no fake news media I
think he
did once say yes CNN fake news
I think
he equated them to fake news I
think he
said CNN fake there's more than
once
yeah but he actually in in in
context of
fake news being the enemy of
the people
some yeah maybe let's get to
the bigger
issue in 2017 last year you
tweeted this
and I want to quote it
accurately the
fake news media is not my enemy
it is
the enemy of the American
people to 100%
not the media I'm glad you're
finally
quoting it correctly because
they like
to leave the fake news okay but
that's
what Yusef ake News so the
people that
are supporting me in particular
they
have very smart people they're
hard-working brilliant great
people they
know when the news is fake and
they get
angry when they see all of the
fake but
it said frankly the net and
people
who've been critical of other
presidents
they're there no president has
liked his
press coverage John Kennedy in
your oval
office canceled the
subscription to the
New York Herald Tribune nobody
called it
the enemy of the American
people Chris
I'm calling the fake news is
the enemy
it's fake it's phony it'll take
you
don't no it's not no no I don't
mind
getting bad news if I'm wrong
if I do
something wrong
like for instance the cemetery
I was not
allowed to go because of the
Secret
Service because they expected
to take a
helicopter they had zero
visibility
they said sir we are totally
unequipped
for you to go in addition to
that the
cemetery was far too far away
from Air
Force One which is sort of like
a
control center where you had to
be near
now one paper that I saw wrote
it that
way
they said I stayed out of it
because of
the rain and yet the following
day I
made a speech at the American
secretary
it was pouring it wasn't even
really
raining the first day but the
fog was
tremendous
okay but cert leaders in
authoritarian
countries like Russia China
Venezuela
now repress the media using
your words
[Music]
so either Wallace isn't
listening which
is likely but he's also been
infected
he's totally infected he's not
listening
at all and then he goes on to
say that
Russia China and Venezuela are
using his
words to justify media
suppression with
with or without his words they
have
media suppression what is this
point but
he will not as far as he's
concerned
fake news is the media and
Trump says
the media is the enemy of the
people
that is the way it turns out if
you
listen to the whole thing it's
like it's
jaw-dropper he's not and and
and Trump
even way on Trump side on this
argument
Trump even thought oh I'm so
glad you
bring that up you you're on my
side
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
we haven't played those in a
long time
yeah well there is some help on
the
horizon unless you have more of
the
Chris Wallace no that's all I
have that
little bit cuz of the lashing
out to the
lashing out fake news is
keeping out for
that phrase people fake news is
going to
be combated or your savior is
here
it's called news guard well
think of it
as the credit catch-22 it's
wrong clip
with my incredibly cool intro
yeah
we'll try it again we'll cut it
out no
one will ever know I did it
wrong news
guard and now there's a great
plug-in to
help you navigate through the
world of
fake news it's called news
guard it
won't pick up fake news alerts
like the
anti-virus software when you
click on a
story link for now news guard
provides
descriptions for news sources
not
individual articles or stories
so
there's a whole rating system
with as
many as nine criteria stuff
like the
responsibility of journalists
or telling
apart news from opinion to name
a couple
we use humans know algorithms to
identify unreliable news
because we
believe our work should be done
with
transparency and accountability
so this
is very very interesting little
project
that is popping up and is
getting some
ink this weekend news guard and
I
installed the plug-in so you
don't have
to so the way it works oh is
you install
the plug-in has a little shield
of
course I got 18 of these
shields now
everyone's gonna shield and
it's a
shield well right now that was
you have
more than one oh no I have a
shield for
my ad blocker and you know so
there's
all kinds of shields you have
to have
protection and protection so it
fits
right in with this is
protecting me from
viruses and malware and the
same kind of
Gestalt yes the Gestalt is
correct but
this they have a rating system
and they
really do it not based on
articles were
based on the website maybe even
the
domain
so they have nine oh yeah so
when you
hit you hit a page and it'll
show you
varying degrees of safety in
this little
icon safety yeah so if it's
green you're
safe if it's red you're not
safe you go
to Infowars it's red with an
exclamation
mark
[Music]
let's premiere Grand Cru yes
let me go
to info wars.com and click it
goes red
with an exclamation mark
proceed with
caution this web site generally
fails to
maintain basic standards of
accuracy and
accountability and then it has
little
information
oh it says a site founded and
run by
radio host Alec Jones that has
reported
among other false stories that
9/11 was
orchestrated by the Bush
administration
and the 2012 mass shooting at
Sandy Hook
elementary school was a hoax
and you can
click on something that says
see the
full nutrition label what yes
right
underneath that so I'm going
with a
different dish you're using all
the
means yep let me take a look at
what
happens when you click on that
yeah see
the nutrition labels oh my
goodness this
is a whole report about
ownership
finances or bait in there
that's what I
like to know know so that it
has a to
pay like a full webpage about
ownership
the content credibility
transparency
history so that's the nutrition
label
there's a sense of work now
let's go
back for a second and take a
look at
almost second I click on this
again and
underneath it here is what has
the
categories that it has to
adhere to
credibility it does not
repeatedly
publish false content
interesting it has
but it has an X so that means
it does I
guess Oh
so as X isn't check marks on
the Exide
credibility does not repeatedly
publish
false content I guess they do
so that
means an X another X for
gathers and
represents information
responsibly
whatever that means X regularly
corrects
or clarifies errors X handles
the
difference between news and
opinion
sponsible e I love to see
cnn.com we'll
go in a second X avoid next
avoids
deceptive headlines X now we do
have a
couple of checks website
discloses
ownership and financing clearly
labels
advertising reveals who's in
charge
including any possible
conflicts of
interest and the site provides
names of
content creators along with
either
contact or biographical
information so
that they're hitting all these
categories and these this
criteria and
it's just what I said its
credibility
transparency and they have all
these
little box let's stick just
there's a
for a joke is just look at CNN
because
they don't think they
understand the
difference between opinion and
news no
CNN gets a green check do give
me a well
hop or let's try Dvorak org or
what
would be is it blog doctor for
a cut or
a devout or slash blog is what
it is
officially and want org slash
blog you
have empty your shield is empty
you're
neither here nor there submit
this site
for review Oh we'll do it yeah
here we
go I have to submit my email
address
which is John at Dvorak org
submit the
site was submitted for review
by our
staff and I will stay tuned for
that but
here's what's a little more
interesting
for you and I and for our No
Agenda
producers let's take a look at
who these
people are
it was running this news guard
let's see
if we know anybody here well
they got a
lot of staff John Alsop do we
know him
hmm no I really recognize here
but I did
recognize a couple of members
of the
advisory board Tom Ridge Tom
Ridge they
gave homeland security guy
under Bush
yep Richard Stengel former
editor of
Time magazine yeah and
Undersecretary of
State in the Obama
administration Obama
BOTS that Ridge but General
Michael
Hayden
CIA John bear yeah he's a
lawyer at
least Jordan political an
analyst NBC
former speechwriter for
Condoleezza Rice
John Battelle
but was he Wired magazine
chillin
Battelle's on there yes on the
advisory
board along with Jessica lessin
let's see yeah she's the girl
that runs
some neon news yeah the
information and
then we have no aren't they're
invested
these people except for Ridge
are all
very left-leaning the investors
I don't
I don't know all these names uh
Steven
Brill why does that ring a bell
girls an
old hack from New York we did
Brill
magazine and all that's right
yes he's
very famous kind of a hack guy
that's
never really made out much
Gordon Kravitz means nothing to
me
Nicholas Penniman the fourth and
Nicholas Penniman the fifth
nothing ah
here's my favorite the
publicist group
pretty much the elations
operation one
of the big boys and if you look
now at
what they have and I think this
is
ultimately what this thing is
about it's
it's not about protecting you
know it's
about protecting the income of
the
Publicis Groupe yes and we see
this by
looking at the menu of news
guard news
guard techcom we have ratings
how it
works news literacy press about
us brand
safety oh let's click on brand
safety
yes finally it says here a way
to
protect brand safety by keeping
ads off
unreliable news websites so
this is a
very interesting way to
approach their
brand safety issue which we
know has
been a problem since
advertising on the
internet since day one you know
so now
instead of them having to
figure out
where they should you know you
have
these these networks it's ad
networks
and you know they buy it on a
real-time
almost like a stock market
basis and it
just floods everything and you
know no
matter how many times an greed
guerrillas or what's that
what's that
outfit named sleeping giants
giant
that's yeah they're one they
they always
shame everyone oh you're
advertising on
you of Tucker Carlson or you're
advertising
right Bardia do you know that
this ad
network is running your ad on
this
horrible Nazi website so now
they won't
have to worry about that because
everyone can protect themselves
and that
will protect the safety of the
brands
because remember this you're
right we
did a real-time analysis on the
spot
it's not for you it's for your
god the
advertiser everyone in America
knows who
the real boss is there you go
nice any
other website you want me to
check with
the news guard before I
understand you
CNN New York if they get the
green light
further the best yeah yes my
Fox which
gets you at Fox say Fox News Oh
Green
Fox goes full green this is
this is not
against mainstream left or
right this is
against independence yeah let's
find
some independence what's a good
independent
how about Breitbart now very
bad though
Drudge then put Drudge Shibley
everything on him trudge Drudge
empty he
Justice empty empty no no news
guard
rating yet mm-hmm what else is
there
there's regular ones I can't
think of
any offhand but there's
probably a
couple that would show up this
is
interesting I went to Wikipedia
Wikipedia and gets a blue icon
shield
with a little eye for
information let's
see what it says this website
is a
platform that publishes content
from its
users that it does not vet
information
from this source may not be
reliable huh
what do they say on Twitter
think there's a lot of fake
news there
isn't there Twitter loaded
Twitter has
nothing no race day yeah well
they
should have some because that's
where
the advertisers with their
money it's
the most important part my
Facebook
denden I don't want I don't
have I don't
can't log in but I can go to
the page
now it's the same it's just
empty empty
hmm how about snoops no it
doesn't take
advertising why would they
bother Snopes
is good to go green checkmark
all good
anyway it doesn't matter it's
about the
advertisers yeah and that's why
one of
the biggest or I don't know if
they're
the biggest but one of the
investors is
publicist
one of the biggest advertising
conglomerates out the huge
public
relations advertising operation
that's
monstrous yes and they're
looking for
any way they can to streamline
their
brands safe you know knowledge
for crap
they don't have to look at
anything
they're you know these guys
that never
years ago and advertising
buyers took
over the place of all a bunch
of just
graduated women from from Ivy
League
colleges that don't look at any
of the
magazines at all they just go
buy a
bunch of reports and then they
pick
magazines to put the ads and
you're a
dumb advertiser you go along
with their
program and next thing you know
you're
all over the you end up
accidentally
getting into unbranded said
they're
become embarrassing this is a
way of
getting around that we run
everything
through this operation this is
part of a
sales pitch is fantastic of
course
advertising on the internet is
is just
at the end of its rope just gam
yeah
well it truly is I mean you
take all the
fake audience into account and
the
arbitrage between fake clicks
and
so-called vlogs and BOTS and
all this
stuff
yeah obviously why don't they
do a
instead of do anything for
looking for
first brand safe websites your
move via
this phony mechanism how about
something
that really clamps down on bots
well you
know there was an interesting
thread on
slash
dot that I was reading
yesterday the day
before and the question was do
BOTS
social media bots have freedom
of speech
and I think well seriously if
you think
about Congress shall make no
laws
regarding the freedom of speech
it
doesn't stipulate that's just
people I
mean if if money is speech
which is the
Supreme Court ruled I think
Twitter bore
social social media bots have
free
speech too ultimately ok let's
say they
have free speech mm-hmm so what
they
still shouldn't be pumping up
the
numbers on some site because
they may
have free speech which we've
determined
that they do just right now
they have no
purchasing power they're
useless that
just along these lines when we
were
talking about net neutrality
which
California's it has now I think
is just
always and you know we have a
number of
gripes about it and we think
it's very
bad and it's a bad idea because
you do
not want to give any type of
regulatory
powers over the Internet to do
government government body and
one of
the main things if you can
recall is
about what your internet
provider would
be able to block I do you
remember the
terminology no unlawful network
traffic
or unlawful content yeah and I
bring
this up because there's
Lauren's story
that came out today
an alarming piece of this
legislation is
about to enter into force in
India next
month mandating that social
media
platforms such as Facebook
remove
unlawful content such as posts
that
affect the sovereignty and
integrity of
India meaning that this law
could easily
be abused by New Delhi to
demand the
internationally recognized
Pakistani map
to be banned because it
contradicts
India's maximalist claims to
Kashmir
and so I the point I bring up
here is
that here is a country saying
that map
is not legal it is unlawful and
therefore you may not surface
that on
your platforms literally the
definition
of unlawful content by an
authoritarian
regime yeah and there you go
and there's
your net neutrality there's
your net
neutrality in a box with a bow
around it
yeah one of many examples I'm
sure but
let's just stick on free speech
for a
second here it is this is a
quick news
report legal victory for the
families of
victims of the Sandy Hook
shooting
massacre in Newtown Connecticut
the
families of six victims won
pretrial
access to information about
controversial hosts and
conspiracy
theorists and Alex Jones and
his program
in full Wars the family sued
Jones for
defamation for his repeated
claims that
the deadly shooting was a hoax
20
elementary students and six
educators
were murdered during that
rampage so
this is Bill the headline is a
little
different than this kind of
sober report
the headline is Alex Jones
loses legal
battle you know you think do
you think
the guys already lost the whole
court
case but they're actually
allowed to
subpoena company records and I
think
internal documents and Jones's
operation
yes yeah so they're not gonna
find we're
gonna find on is he protected
under free
speech is he protected under
the freedom
of the press yeah I thought I
got to do
with this case when you're
getting sued
oh he's being sued protected
from
investigation not protected from
discovery he's being sued for
defamation
yeah she's being sued for
defamation and
the discovery thing goes
through ings
are climbing through people's
records
but I'm asking you I'm asking a
different question yeah if your
news
gathering I'm just looking
trying to
look at it 360 a whole
perspective if
your news gathering brings you
to the
conclusion that this was either
fake
false flag hoax and you keep
repeating
that is that invalid report
it could be fake news but it's
still
news i you know i think it i
think if
you can can if you do the work
and those
are the conclusions you draw
without any
underlying prejudices mm-hmm
like CNN
for its New York Times for that
matter
according to Jill Abramson but
only I
think yeah fine but I think
what they're
trying to do is serve it there
here's
what just what you said when
you asked
which is logical question and
what
they're doing makes me think
that
they're trying to prove that
that's not
what happened the Jones didn't
do any
any work on this and they
there's a
there's a memo and there's
something say
hey we can milk this and sell
more
vitamins you don't think
there's a memo
like that at NBC well they in
be she's
not being sued no of course not
but so
yes gotcha and would that then
still not
be considered journalism I
think you of
you would be well in so far as
slander
and libel is concerned I think
that'd be
a smoking gun
hey with definitely discredit
ation of
alternative news sources yeah
he bills
himself as a news source yeah
yeah you
do get some news from his
operation
sometimes it's pretty
interesting
yeah so I'm not saying he's not
a news
source I think he is a new
source
generally just do rap shit and
a lot of
vitriol and uh yeah showmanship
yeah
note no different than lots of
m5m
outfits regime acosta
showmanship oh
it's just cost is one of the
worst-hit I
loved his thing at the wall
though his
stand-up was great yeah he was
doing the
way I saw that too it's I'm
here and
there's no problem at this at
the wall
you think that the editor just
was like
that's a Kosta we'll just put
him put
his thing on he's always good
not to
worry about it and they didn't
watch it
well--there's they have a
didn't know
there's a place that someone
should go
and look for the hidden agenda
for
example CNN reached out to Kusi
and have
a clip this is a good story
it's now is
Kusi an affiliate of any
network are
they completely independent
they may be
independent I'm not sure I'll
look it up
I look at as you play or you
can look it
up but anyway they called see
Kusi cos
Kusi is down on the border and
they
wanted to get a we didn't want
to send
anyone there and so they
decided to sit
get some local reporters to do
a story
on the border wall and the
story didn't
come out the way CNN wanted it
because
they find it the border wall
would be
effective and so CNN just they
just
spiked it I'm just gonna say it
it
pissed these guys tough enough
did they
do this report as a sign of the
times in
this debate on the shutdown CNN
asked if
Kusi would provide a reporter
to offer
our local view of the debate
especially
to learn if the wall works in
San Diego
Kusi offered our own dan Plante
who's
reported many times that the
wall is not
an issue here in fact most
officials
believe it is effective the
issue we
face is the migrants and the
debate over
their treatments now knowing
this CNN
declined to have us on their
programs
which often present the wall as
not
required in other places like
the
stretch of the Texas border the
president visited earlier today
they
didn't like what they heard
from us it's
just a background for you I
think CNN is
doubling down aren't they no we
we we
deny reports all the time
that's MacKinnon broadcasting
and
MacKinnon owns kiii in corpus
christi
which is an ABC affiliate kb mt
in
beaumont which is also an ABC
affiliate
NBC subchannel affiliate and
Kusi is
independent yeah they look like
you yeah
but these are probably the
probably
right wing well considered
right wing
maybe who knows
listen McKinnon broadcasting
company
does business as Texas
television oh
okay
so they probably right-wing
yeah right
way and
haters well then why would they
call him
cuz that's what they do they
troll -
yeah something happens you
troll Twitter
you see you say hey can I DM
you to get
your story hey can I use your
video
can't give me permission hey
can we talk
hey hey hey that's today's
journalism
yeah chello extremely shallow
let's see
here was the this it so you
played that
clip I might as well play this
clip from
as a Democrat who is she she is
representative Jaya Paul Jay
Paul please
billet PA why PA L jeyapaul
jayp86 I
could not find it so here's a
quick one
which is doing the rounds it is
fundamentally existential if he
continues to insist on a wall
and you
know you just said it so
beautifully
Christmas has never been about
a wall
here it's existential yeah
existential
it's fundamental let's just
make sure
you understand the definition
the exit
yes means survival of life
survival of
life all life will end well no
she's
well maybe but she's going to
wrap it up
in the end she's saying border
wall to
trump is existential because it
is
fundamentally existential if he
continues to insist on a wall
and you
know you just said it so
beautifully
Chris this has never been about
a wall
he actually could have gotten
funding a
couple of years ago or a year
ago for a
wall it was part of a deal that
was
proposed not all of us agreed
with that
deal but it was proposed to him
and he
turned it down because his
ultimate goal
is as you said to make America
pure in
the sense of not having
immigrants not
having folks of color here and
every form of legal immigration
yeah
okay so that's really out there
that's
she she's a nutcase in
Washington State
you know what district she's
she said
she said something she said
something
interesting there in the middle
that I
wanted to but it was proposed
to him and
he drew yeah I remember what was
proposed and I think they
actually said
that they would the last time
this came
around when there was a brief
shutdown
as well it was about daca the
dreamers
the deferred action kids and on
the
table I believed that that the
Trump
administration said okay not
only the
million dreamers it was you
know eight
hundred thousand something like
that the
million dreamers will will will
let them
stay and they'll give them a
pathway to
citizenship and then they
bulked out it
said not because you want you
won't
allow a chain migration and I
think they
said okay will allow the
dreamers and
any parents who are here with
them so it
upped it to two two and a half
million
but that wasn't enough the
Democrats
wanted all family to be able to
join the
gene migrations everybody every
Tom Dick
and Harry any MIT yeah they
want every
relative everybody to come they
didn't
the Democrats didn't want no
they didn't
want it exactly they really
didn't want
it now I as I was looking for
this
longer clip I found something
that
refers to back to something AOC
Alexandria Ocasio Cortes said
in her
rebuttal of the President's
speech about
the wall on the Rachel Maddow
Show and
we we wondered about this on
the last
episode the president should
not be
asking for more money to an
agency that
has systematically violated
human rights
the president should be really
defending
why we are funding such an
agency at all
because right now what we are
seeing is
death right now what we are
seeing is
the violation of human rights
these
children and these families are
being
held and what are called
lalita's which
are basically freezing boxes
that no
person should be
then for any amount of time let
alone
the amount of time that they're
being
kept on so the freezing boxes
and we all
hold on a second what what
exactly is
she talking about turns out in
a June
the same PayPal lady talked
about this
many of them talked about these
facilities that they have
nicknames for
one nickname is the ice box
because the
temperatures are so cold that
if they
liken it to a freezer some of
these
women had crossed the Rio
Grande come
out of the river wet to turn
themselves
in and were immediately put
into these
freezing facilities no blankets
no mats
another facility they called
the duct so
really it's a nickname for the
slammer
and I've received a couple of
emails
about this as well it's like
saying hey
we put them on ice we threw
them in the
cell yeah I'm sure it's not
beautifully
heated or whatever it's not the
most
comfortable place to be but
it's not lit
the way a OC made a sound is
we're
putting them into ice boxes
little thing
with a handle on it and it's
like
insulated ice box and they
throw them in
there and lock him in yeah it's
yeah
that's what she makes it sound
like yes
yes she's the worst
it's pretty bad pretty bad yeah
this was
out there this was the
comparison of
Trump and Obama on the border
situation
so this is something this row I
forget
who made it but it's out there
we now
have an actual humanitarian
crisis on
the border that only
underscores the
need to drop the politics and
fix our
immigration system once and for
all this
is a humanitarian crisis a
crisis of the
heart and a crisis of the soul
in recent
weeks we've seen a surge of
unaccompanied children arrive
at the
border brought here and to other
countries by smugglers and
traffickers
the journey is unbelievably
dangerous
for these kids child smugglers
exploit
the loopholes and they gain
illegal
entry into the United States
putting
countless children in danger on
the
perilous Trek to the United
States they
come up through Mexico
protecting public
safety and deporting dangerous
criminals
has been and will remain the top
priority we will begin removing
for more
than two million criminal
illegal
immigrants from the country but
we are
going to refocus our efforts
where we
can to make sure we do what it
takes to
keep our border secure we want
to secure
our border there you go yeah
well draw
your own conclusions you can do
that
till the cows come home and the
president doesn't do it yet now
he's
tweeting now he's tweeting a
VHD missed
such an opportunity
he should be doing with Ross
Perot did
explain things and show the
hypocrisy of
the other side by playing clips
does he
even do a presidential address
anymore
does he do a weekly thing that
Weekly
thing yeah I haven't looked at
that I'm
so close an interesting
question because
apparently someone who was beat
it was
to watch those things yeah has
has we
know what happened what
happened is they
changed whitehouse.gov
and they removed all RSS feeds
and
everything the Lynx stuff total
dick
move
not just links dis RS just
feeds the the
ability to subscribe and see
what's
going on
yeah there's been a concerted
effort to
to screw without RSS feeds yeah
I think
it's the big media well it
started with
Google killing Google Reader
yeah well Google's an agent of
the big
media and they're an agent of
change
jumped and they did that no I
think
that's when they were coming
out with
what was the Google on Google
Groups was
it called the Google+
yeah Google+ I think that's
what the
killer was then they cook
slammed the
door on that already you can't
make
anything work so it's not it's
not
highlighted anywhere on the
website the
presidential do it radio there
you go
that's what I did it just shows
you lots
of CNN things no well maybe
stop doing
him it was remembered there was
at a
certain point everyone was like
ah he's
gonna start his own news network
remember that oh that was
during the
election mmm he was gonna lose
and start
his own network now it was dirt
it was
after one of his first kind of
you know
weekly addresses mmm no I think
you may
be wrong oh it's a weekly radio
address
oh here it is my god could be
buried any
further
what is it yeah yeah he's got
one no
look at this last night did
February 3rd
2017 no so he stopped he
wouldn't looked
at his numbers he said hold on
let me
let me just make sure is this
really
right is this right that makes
no sense
that's screw this you ruined
whitehouse.gov Trump can he
look at his
numbers like a good TV guy
would and
says nobody's watching this
after just
using the information against
me I'll
tweet yeah but he could tweet a
YouTube
of himself
I could that would be cool yeah
you know
this a bunch of things he's not
doing
that's because of those the
douchebags
that he's got working for him
yes
they're not helping him at all
they're
all deep state creeps you got a
note
from a Bronx millennial about
aoc a
couple of them actually thank
you yeah I
saw did we add two notes at
least read
this one I'm a millennial an
avid
listener who happens to live in
a o'seas
district in Astoria Queens it's
like
it's like and I happen to be
gays Ike I
happened to live there okay I
was not
lucky enough to have her knock
on my
door nor did any of my friends
in the
area I do know of a couple
dimension B
members who did meet her at
rallies
around the area but I can't
speak of
anyone meeting her beyond that
it is
munch it mentioned much in the
m5m that
she is from the Bronx but she
is indeed
from Yorktown Heights in
Westchester
which is just north of the
Bronx your
analysis on the show may not be
too far
off as Hillary Clinton's Clinton
Foundation funded mansion in
New York is
in Chappaqua this is about 20
minutes
south of where AOC is from
Westchester
County my only issue with
that's was my
theory is Joe Crowley who she
defeated
for the seat he was an
establishment
Democrat who also ran as a
third-party
candidate against her I don't
think he
really ran did he did he
actually write
in for that I thought he gave
up I think
he gave up he may have just
been playing
his part but what do I know
anyway Amazon hq2 will soon be
jacking
up my rent but I still recently
signed
up for a monthly donation well
it may be
small now I hope to add to it
in the
near future as I make be Zoe's
money
keep doing what you're doing
and please
know that there are sane
Millennials out
there who love what you're
doing even if
you're too old white dudes
thanks Shaun
the other note was very similar
it had
it's said that there's no
chance that
Hillary has she's too much of an
anathema for Hillary to be part
of the
scheme yeah now is news and
we're just
gonna we might as well get out
of the
way now news this weekend that
maybe Joe
Biden's running he might have
told
somebody but no one really
knows he's
for all Joe is she's not getting
anything no he's not they're
gonna push
him aside as fast as they can
yeah I
don't think he has any chance
of even
getting in the race but we did
have a
lot
maybe in the first round of
debates we
did have one of our our Texas
Texas boys
pipe up the San Antone we're
gonna make
sure this is Julian or who Liam
Castro
we're gonna make sure that the
promise
of America is available to
everyone in
this 21st century
you see I learned from my
mother so many
years ago in this community
that when we
want change we don't wait for
change we
work for it when my
grandmother's out
here almost a hundred years ago
I'm sure that she never could
have
imagined that just two
generations later
one of her grandsons would be
serving as
a member of the United States
Congress
and the other would be standing
with you
here today to say these words I
am a
candidate for president of the
United
States
[Applause]
no no this yep he's he got his
brother
Juan and this is Julian Julio
yeah but
this is Julian the one running
he's
running yeah
isn't he a member of Congress
no his
brother is he was the mayor of
San
Antonio okay and these guys
broke these
brothers were tipped we were
talking
about professor Pennebaker just
the
other day the the professor
came up with
the whole performative x'
measurement
and and and tracking of
certainly
politicians using performative
when we
had one of our dinners when
people still
could stand me before get
kicked out of
the Obot group they he was the
one who's
saying uh it's gonna be the
Castro
brothers maybe Marco Rubio but
the
Castro Castro brother won't
talk with
the Castro brothers Castro
brothers and
they'll be fighting against
debt Oh
so it'll be interesting to see
what
happens well there's a lot of
people
that I hear these stories
especially
back in the Brooklyn area where
there's
his upper publishing operations
that
have people working there white
girls
who will not vote for Beto real
because
he's white oh there's so many
white
girls I know who love him and
he's also
doing the Instagram thing
doesn't mean
they're gonna vote from this
woman's the
same way I love Beto he's the
greatest
but I can't vote for president
because
he's white love to hear a clip
of that
well sure there's a clip out
there
available I'm sure if you just
go man on
the street you can get one yeah
but the
Castro brothers doesn't seem
like much
of a threat to me I think that
it is
changed so dramatically and one
of the
people I was a big fan of and
I'm quite
sure maybe five years ago I
said this is
your future President of the
United
States although I think that
chance has
been diminished because the
whole tulsi
gabbard
Oh tulsi yeah we should talk
about her I
have a number of class I've
never
thought you know when you look
into
tulsi gabbard she's got to it's
Reese
trikes against her she hasn't
got a
chance
snowball's chance in hell of
going
anywhere and then the
progressives don't
like her oh they hate
I mean I see article after
article here
tulsi gabbard doesn't deserve
your vote
in 2020 Tulsi gabbard's Forest
porn
policy sucks the US presidential
candidate Tulsi Gabbard bought
crypto at
height of bull market I
couldn't resist
putting that in the show knows
Gabbard
37 is a fresh energetic face on
the
American political scene
however her
chances of winning the
Democratic
Party's nomination are slim
given the
huge field of candidates wait
as CCN
reported which is probably
crypto coin
news Tulsi Gabbard bought
between 1015
thousand dollars of ether and
litecoin
in December 2017 at the time
the Bitcoin
price soared to a record high
of 19 and
a half thousand he put that on a
disclosure - anyway she
announced this
on the Van Jones CNN show yes
Van Jones
which is another you know
that's why
there well his response was very
interesting and I just pulled a
couple
of clips that I want to share
we'll start with well the
obvious
question is why she was a
Congress she
was a representative for Hawaii
and she
left her re-election campaign
to go to
be deployed to Iraq and Vann
asked her
why you were sitting in office
you could
have gone off to do something
else you
decided to quit and go put
yourself in a
war zone why'd you do that
you're right
I mean being a state
representative in
Hawaii being with my family
being with
my friends it was something
that I would
have been very happy to
continue to do
but I knew that there was no
way that I
could stay home and be safe and
comfortable while my brothers
and
sisters went off to war on the
other
side of the planet that's why I
left my
reelection campaign volunteered
to
deploy got trained in a job
that they
needed someone to fill
and and went to to serve with
them to
serve our country sketchy I
that to be
true I think that she wasn't
gonna get
reelected I maybe I I think
she's very
sincere but the problem is she
has all
of the elements to be in the to
contend
in the Beto League if she could
even
Nasser she has no social media
skills
that I can tell you know she's
like
she's a surfer she's an army
vet she's
cute you know if they if she
would play
that up you know like BAM she's
on the
surf bub Mahalo bitch isn't
gonna run
your country you know she could
do so
much and they would bite get on
Instagram well she's not gonna
go that
route there's no doubt about
that for
what a couple of her downsize
once she's
a Hindu and that is not going
to help it
getting elected as president
until
people can maybe see things a
little
differently even though we have
other
Hindus and I think most of them
tend to
be Republicans that are in
office you
think it's too early for a
non-christian
president yes
what about Obama then the
second well he
he faked it okay yes as
everyone knows I
think he's a Muslim just
correct you can
I just correct you she never
say she's a
Hindu you say she just happens
to be
Hindu yeah I think it might be
Hindi the
point is that the real one
that's got my
attention is that she's on the
Council
of Foreign Relations oh there's
more
work for her let's listen to her
announcement with van but in
particular
please listen to Van Jones now
this was
softball all the way it was set
up he's
setting her up for everything
setting
her up with questions is a very
friendly
show I could go on that show
and I would
not make a fool of myself but
van really
has uh agenda that brings me
right back
to where I want to go which is
about
2020 are you gonna run for
president of
the United States and do
something about
the things you should
I have decided to run and we'll
be
making a formal announcements
within the
next week whoa
[Applause]
do you hear that douche I got
the
ratings she just announced that
she's
gonna upend her life to run as a
candidate for president of the
United
States and Van Jones is
thinking I got
ratings yeah he's a douche he
doesn't
have race you should have done
it on
them on any other show
especially you
know Jimmy Fallon or something
I want to
hear things here's what she's
up to
I believe and everyone knows
that you're
not gonna the 20/20 thing is
she's gonna
go to Hillary or it's gonna be
very
difficult to beat Trump unless
they you
know put so much bad thoughts
in the
American public's mind that
they can you
actually get somebody in it is
possible
I mean there are these one
termers that
come and go tend to be of the
George
Bush it has to be it has to be
something
to do with the economy if the
economy
has a nice collapse just before
the
election it's it's getting a
little late
for the kind of economic
collapse but it
could still there's still time
we're
still hopeful I'm not but the
idea is is
that you want to get your name
out there
to the point where you can give
a major
speech Obama like at the
Democratic
convention and he has to be
well written
by a bunch of pros is what
Obama did you
got four years before you get
because
the 2004 Democratic convention
he gave
this wonderful speech and when
I saw him
do that I said this guy
everybody knew
it everybody saw it everybody
knew it
everyone who has a brain he
also was the
you know that was the first
year they
had bloggers at the convention
and he
sat down with every single one
of them
is the smartest one yeah well
she's
hoping to get
a spot and to give the super
speech and
maybe get that kind of
attention because
everyone's gonna look for this
what you
looking for you looking for
we're all
looking at 2020 for 2020 nobody
cares i
Hillary may run again and I
think she
still has the upper hand but in
2024
you're gonna have a couple of
major
people that want to run you
know it
would be a OC who should be
doing the AO
she's too stupid the problem is
Gavin
Newsom is so white yeah that
he's got a
problem he doesn't even know it
I mean Gavin Newsom has been
setting
himself up since he was a kind
of a just
a guy in San Francisco going
you know
running for City Council
running for
mayor got the mayor's job and
and he's a
good looking you know it's good
you kind
of get it has a certain
attraction to
certain kind of women this big
smile he
always says the right things got
slightly gravelly voice and he
would
usually do nothing but his
that's fine
by most people's standards just
want
somebody and there's rubber
stamps the
Democrat side but he's white
and the
Democrats have created a
situation for
themselves well he has taken
one social
justice warrior step in the
right
direction by claiming he does
not have a
first lady he has a first
partner yes
well he's does stuff like that
he's also
the one night we had the clip
the other
day
of him you know giving away the
store
buy he's making misty these are
mistakes
let me play the the lot just a
final
clip I have on Tulsi Gabbard
and this is
about running against President
Trump so
how would you take on a Donald
Trump I
mean you seem kind of Aloha and
he seems
kind of a low uh-huh low with
Jo ha he's
not trying to Aloha SSI so
worthy now
that I think about it so how
would you
take on a Donald Trump I mean
you seem
kind of Aloha and he seems kind
of a low
uh-huh
Aloha Cho ha Aloha Aloha which
essentially means love love for
each
other love for our country
should not be
mistaken for just some feeling
love is
action when you love someone
you will do
anything to fight for them when
you love
something you will go to the
end of the
earth to fight for it love
gives us
strength love gives us courage
love
gives us what we need to
overcome those
forces have done what did you
say you're
listening to part of her speech
for the
convention oh oh yes and here
comes wood
shedding some stuff here oh
yeah and
she's gonna finish it up and
you're so
you so now that you say this
absolutely
she's gonna finish it with a
Martin
Luther King quote which Van
Jones does
not know yes one of my favorite
quotes
is from dr. Martin Luther King
and you
know this breezes darkness
cannot drive
out darkness only light can do
that well
hate cannot drive out hate only
love can
do that man jump in there
thought the
quote was over he doesn't know
Martin
Luther King ah sorry excuse for
a black
man Van Jones good catch but
you're
right that she's doing her
speech right
there well she's working on
there's a
bits of it if she's testing
this is the
market this is testing you only
shows
you test a little bit see were
taught
the reaction is start putting it
together
then you get some professionals
in there
to help if she does that I
think she
won't I don't think she has the
chops to
do that but she gets some pros
and
they're superstars I'd like
like Obama
had that kid who was a genius
the the
writer and the writer kid and
is that
the same kid who's on the pod
save
America is that him things yeah
it could
be him that guy and then you
not come
down at the convention but you
know then
first there's two problems when
you got
to get a prime time slot yeah
that's
that's which is not that easy
especially
since you know you already seen
as a
schmuck by the party
and it's gonna be tough she'd I
don't
think she doesn't much of a
prayer of
getting anywhere she really
doesn't as
much I guess what was more
interest or
just as interesting to me is
how how
appropriate and really good she
was four
or five years ago she could go
somewhere
you know she's she's anti-war
she
actually would the Democratic
Party
hates her because she went to
see Trump
pretty quickly after he took
office to
talk about getting out of Syria
and of
course he's seen as an Assad
lover she's
that really the grilling her or
you know
just roasting her yeah man the
other
hand she also did support
sending half a
half a billion dollars in
troops to the
Africa to fight Ebola so she's
kind of
on my shit list I do have an
update on
that now you'll recall that
troops went
to the Congo for Ebola Ebola
against is
no longer an issue we don't
hear about
it anymore in fact before the
election
people were wrecking the Ebola
camps
which seems like a really smart
thing to
do you know if you're really
pissed off
by your government to go kick
down the
tents where people with Ebola
are lying
down unless maybe they didn't
have Ebola
I don't know when we had the
shoo-in guy
who works for ExxonMobil I'm now
thinking that he might this may
be a US
EU war and I'll tell you what
fiala for
Yolanda burrs name is the guy
who came
in runner-up who was Exxon
Mobil he was
you know tip to be the guy we
hadn't
even heard of the guy who won
the the
election it was just the son of
some
radical back in the day who was
in
Brussels the most recent part
of his
life doing quote odd jobs as an
African
in Brussels does and so you
know now
this so this this no-name guy
who does
have historical ties to the to
the
regime that is leaving now he
all of a
sudden wins the election this
does not
sit well with Africa today
Thomas you
were outside that court today a
short
while ago when fula went in to
demand
the recount and he managed to
catch a
few words with him
what does he have to say Martin
why you
told me when he arrived that
this
election is the people's
victory and
that it cannot be taken away
from the
people just because of
negotiations
between the government and
feeling
sophisticated because this is
what
margins are you fear this fear
that
Phoenix 60 carry was given the
presidency because he
negotiated a
power-sharing deal with the
current
government the whole morning on
Saturday
massive Balinese lawyers were
at the
Constitutional Court in order
to bring
all the necessary documents to
file the
appeal and among these
documents there
are the the recounts from every
polling
station according to to Marcel
for you
and his team of witnesses that
were
deployed in the field on the
day so this
clip has one other piece of
information
so what the accusation here is
that this
this guy came in he made a deal
with the
with the pretty much dictator
who's been
raining there for is now 13
years I
think who was clearly our guy
I mean I think that is you
can't tell me
that's the that's the Chinese
are doing
this now this has got to be our
guy and
our guy in and you know
everything seems
to be reasonably calm but
what's really
interesting it's a little hard
to hear
is he he goes on to say that in
the in
the in the Senate or their
Parliament
the guy who one has you know
like one
like twenty percent of the
seats like
the guy who came in second his
party has
a majority seats so it's all
screwed up
not that we didn't expect
anything
different
well yeah but now I just want
I'm just
trying to figure out who's
running who
well we'll find out shortly or
they're
gonna let this simmer for a
while we'll
see if there's any more troops
going
over there I want to make a
correction
of the timeline of the Tulsi
Gabbard
story mm-hmm they when they
were talking
about her not running for
re-election
they're talking about when she
was in
the House of Representatives of
Hawaii
in 2000 was not a not a US
Congress it
was state Congress so she was
she quit
there and then she went to the
battlefield then she came back
and ran
for Congress US Congress and
she's been
there ever since 2013 is she's
still
there okay thanks for clearing
that up
my head was in the Congo yeah
apparently
well with that you got the Ebola
there's no Ebola Ebola is just
nothing
it's like that's off the map
it's not
important Sweden somehow yeah
Boland
yeah I have the story here I
mean that
may be away I mean if it's EU
right
right if it's you u.s. maybe
that's
their way oh you know this
Ebola may be
gotta send somebody and
although Europe
is not supposed to have any
kind of army
a patient in Sweden has been
admitted to
hospital with a suspected case
of Ebola
test results Allah the test
results will
probably be received sometime
this
evening this is yesterday
the patients being treated at
the
infectious disease clinic no
other
details rumor at this point and
but it
does say final line an Ebola
outbreak
ravaging eastern states of
Democratic
Republic of Congo's claimed
several
hundred lives so the so there's
one
story trying to bring Ebola
back into
purview and as we'll see we'll
see but
with that I do want to thank
you for
your courage and say in the
morning to

back in
September and I and I had to
have a
pretty big surgery to take it
out in
November huh yes I remember him
writing
about I think I remember him
writing
about that yeah
that's so he's alive clearly
what does
he say I was long something
like 12
hours the blunt wild 12-hour
operation
but I recovered really well and
they
expect a few bumps in the road
after
getting home and losing hearing
in one
ear I'm just about back to my
normal
self but I can't help but
attribute my
speedy recovery to the amazing
family
and no agenda i greedily
hoarded shows
well as in a recovery knowing I
could be
critical to my reassimilation
into the
work world
I have finally run out and I'm
donating
to say thank you for the help
and
getting me back to the swing of
work
without losing my mind is it
possible to
get a job as cover for my boss
I don't
think she is looking I just
hate working
for gets poached out of the
company cuz
I don't want to leave the team
I work
with Sharpton and a Putin on
the Ritz
well let's think about this
asking for
it positive you know hmm that's
a
request he's a sir right right
and there's something more it's
experimenting with I guess it's
okay
because she would be happy that
she got
a new job well or the was shoe
yeah she
would make somebody happy or
did someone
a favor
yeah so I think doing new
people a favor
cuz he's working for so she
probably
doesn't like him either so
here's the
question should I then give her
Anansie
jobs or a Trump jobs or Trancy
jobs
doesn't Trump jobs is a to
jinkx orient
no give her and irregular Nancy

to thank
these folks these are our
associate
executive producers and
executive
producers for show 11:03 and
these

they're just
like Hollywood people who
finance the
work get an executive producer
or so she
executive producer credit but we
actually honor the producers go
ahead
take a look at any award show
tell me
how they award producers we've
seen what
is wrong with the model and
we've
incorporated into our value for
value
model and we appreciate so much
that
people are helping us and we'll
be
thanking more people $50 and
above in
our second segment remember
another show
coming up on Sunday remember us
a tavola
red dot org slash and a you've
definitely got the inside scoop
on some
of the Dead 2020 candidates now
go
propagate our formula is this

[Applause]
No Agenda she'll like a kick to
the
flush
any word on Ruth Bader Ginsburg

I think I
get for a health karma I just
feel so
shitty about it you've got
karma I know
that there's people out there
just hope
she's gonna die and I just
can't it's
really horrible must be must be
horrible
and you know people are
thinking these
things I think she's probably
think
there's probably more people
liking her
than not hmm
so we had a couple of funny
things
happened one is this does the
Sanders
clip I got the Sanders campaign
sexual
harassment you hear about this
now I'm
completely oblivious is this a
me-too
moment or what is kind of but
okay any
more leading necessary set up a
straight-up story senator
Bernie Sanders
apologized Thursday to women
who have
come forward to say they were
sexually
harassed or discriminated
against by
male staffers while working on
his 2016
campaign the accusations
surfaced after
more than two dozen staffers
penned a
letter to Sanders requesting a
meeting
to discuss sexual violence and
harassment on the 2016 campaign
in the
run-up to the 2020 election
several of
Sanders top aides have been
implicated
this is senator Sanders speaking
Thursday that is part of our
campaign
there was some women who were
harassed
or or mistreated and I thank
them from
the bottom of my heart for
speaking out
what they experienced was
absolutely
unacceptable and certainly not
what a
progressive campaign or any
campaign
should be about in other news
on Sanders
possible run for president his
2016
campaign manager Jeff Weaver
has said he
will not return to the same
position if
Sanders decides to run for
president
again but Weaver is expected to
stay on
as a senior advisor I guess
that was the
guy
they're gassing the women he's
gonna
still be a senior adviser I
don't know
yeah I think I did actually
hear about
this is where Bernie is saying
that well
you know I was trying to run for
president I didn't have time to
figure
out what's going on going on
something
like that well I think what you
heard
him say there is what you get
forced
into saying yeah now the thing
I want to
play a couple clips I do have
the
rundown on what's really going
on in the
country which is the shutdown
plus the
CBS takes the shutdown and they
associate it with Trump as his
Russian
agent which is a big scandal
this is
mine this was it then let me
understand
the New York Times broke the
story was
at the time to the post yes yes
no time
and they said that after Trump
as
president fired FBI director
Comey
senior man P senior officials
of the FBI
whoever that is
we're so freaked out by they
started to
immediately look in to see if
he was an
an asset a Russian spy why did
the term
is asset which is not quite as
my per se
but he'd be an asset yeah asset
yeah
he's been turned okay by the
way I
should make before I play this
for these
clips there's three of them and
it's way
they'd like Tony plana because
they kind
of so they push the for summer
I don't
know how they do this but CBS
pulls a
stunt here they pull us on i-5
that one
clip that's really bad but so my
daughter and her fiance were in
the
Denver Airport during this
shutdown of
course I can't get these kids
to think
like like producers yeah like
producers
because apparently the TSA
staff in
total at the airport we're
singing folk
songs rive been working on the
railroad
and there's only songs about
not getting
paid what and they're sitting
and
they've got their iPhones and
everything
and they did not record it
hello oh my
goodness I gave you read on the
riot
ah I can't believe it because
it's
material I said think another
YouTube
hits especially since there's
you know
was this J Jenner fan fiance
both hey
you guys are living rent-free
right now
people paid a month's rent
never thought of it just this
is so sad
it is okay
this is shut down this is day
22 of the
partial government shutdown now
the
longest in US history 380,000
federal
employees are on temporary
layoffs
420,000 are working without pay
TSA
workers learn today they're
receiving a
one-time $500 holiday bonus to
help them
until their next paycheck
furloughed
government workers lined up for
groceries today at a pop-up
Food Bank in
Alexandria Virginia President
Trump and
congressional Democrats remain
locked in
a dispute over border wall
funding the
president unleashed a tweet
storm today
on the shutdown and an
explosive report
that the FBI investigated him
as a
possible Russian agent al
Barnett is at
the White House hmm I didn't
know that
they got 500 bucks bonus to go
to help
help cross the chasm
you know that's CBS as far as I
know is
the only one that reported that
that's
very interesting
was it what was it 500 cash in
hand or
was it DEA they tied probably a
government check hmm I gotta
tell you
it's gonna come down to the
wires gonna
get pretty nasty now I expect
so this is
this is the way they started
handling
the story though just part two
in a
series of tweets this morning
President
Trump defended himself a New
York Times
report which claimed the FBI
investigated whether the
president was a
Russian asset or potential
threat
against American security after
he fired
FBI director James Comey in May
of 2017
CBS News has not independently
confirmed
that report oh wait we're still
talking
about the shutdown if they put
those two
stories together Wow I was
going to fire
call me my decision
but the New York Times says it
was
president Trump's own public
statements
connecting the Comey firing to
Russia
which raised concern among
agents when I
decided to just do it I said to
myself I
said you know this Russia thing
with
Trump and Russia is a made-up
story the
president insisted today his
quote
firing of James Comey was a
great day
for America
absolutely ludicrous and in any
of you
airing tomorrow on Face the
Nation
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo
say they
want to back up a little bit
and usually
have the Trump quote and then it
followed by him upon pail quote
saying
absolutely ludicrous God's the
way they
put this together I think is
shameful
they made it sound as though
Pompeo was
criticizing Trump's commentary
of course
they did this is CBS but wait
wait wait
let me finish
in fact Pompeo is discussing
the idea
that Trump is the net Russian
axis it
not it's not a commentary on
Trump's
quote but they put it together
so
improperly that they give you
the
impression if he's just
listening to it
Trump says well you would you
call me
was an idiot and then I guess
that's
bull crap I mean it's
unbelievable how
they did this I have been an
editing
Bay's many times when something
was
edited together that may even
just have
come together kind of as an
accident I
call man that's really funny
let's just
keep that in there put those
leads us
two together that's great I'm
sure
you've witnessed this even if
not
political just for any horse
yeah but
this is the top I yes this
happens all
the time but in my opinion when
this is
happening at eight one of the
big three
networks yeah it's shameful
they got
money it's another reason why
we Owen
can only go through 2020 there
will be
no more journalism it's gonna
end
there's gonna be nothing left
there'll
be nothing to look at
journalism will be whoever does
it by
sure thing with Trump and
Russia is a
made-up story the president
insisted
today his quote firing of James
Comey
was a great day for America
absolutely
ludicrous in an interview airing
tomorrow on Face the Nation
Secretary of
State Mike Pompeo said he
rejects the
New York Times allegation the
idea
that's contained in the New
York Times
story that a president Trump
was a
threat to American national
security is
is silly on its face and it's
not worthy
of a response is that
unprecedented
where any Intelligence Agency
has has
done this to a president just
in office
I don't know if it ever
happening before
me have been done but it's been
kept a
secret FBI is well known for
spying on
everybody and blackmailing with
sex
secrets and all this stuff so
it's true
all right so anyway that was
that that I
wanted that clip in there for
sure
because of this little that was
very way
they edited it to make just for
the
subconscious effect on the poor
if I
said watch CBS News I'm
surprised you
didn't pull an iso from it it's
so it's
so you can use it anywhere yes
fact they
may bring it back I will get a
nicer for
future use if you don't want to
pull it
uh doing finished is the last
clip see a
little kick around from the
White House
press secretary Sarah Sanders
called The
Times claim absurd and said
Comey is a
disgraced partisan hack the
former FBI
director sent this tweet today
quoting
President Franklin Delano
Roosevelt
quote judge me by the enemies
I've made
now all of this leads to
Special Counsel
Robert Muller
whose team has not made any
public
comment call me tweeted that
judge me by
the enemies I have made yeah
now all of
this leads to special counsel
robert
muller whose team has not made
any
public I guess I missed it sit
back here
Franklin Delano Roosevelt quote
judge me by the enemies I have
made
interesting now all of this
leaves the
special counsel robert muller
whose team
has not made any public comment
on the
extent of its investigation but
Mullis
team has to kill the indictment
of three
Associates of President Trump
and the
grand jury used to secure those
indictments just received a
six-month
extension to keep working this
investigation takes four months
minimum
I think you may be able to
explain it
better than I can but a grand
jury I
believe that people in America
but
certainly in other countries
here grand
jury think alike I so fucked
and I
really don't understand what a
grand
jury is what its power is but
really
what it means and and what
comes out of
it and what the process is and
honestly
I'm I'm a little fuzzy myself a
grand
jury is a special group that's
put
together called the grand jury
that it
can look at the idea of a grand
jury is
that District Attorney's in
particular
have situations that they don't
really
know if they should indict
somebody for
now anything Dighton explaining
you got
to explain that means you're
gonna be
arrested and charged with a
crime got it
and so the grand jury has
greater powers
than and then it's almost like
a mock
trial they can bring people in
and
witnesses to discuss certain
things and
they can and you have to answer
to the
grand jury because it's a
closed session
as a private it somebody seems
semi
illegal but it's it does sort
of a
purpose and the idea is that it
can
bring forward information that
the grand
jury can say we think there's
somebody
this guy could be I think you
can indict
this guy for this crime ah okay
and then you give you hand your
vertigo
and jury hands have kind of a
verdict or
a a finding the grand jury
hands of
finding over to the DA saying
yes you
can indict this guy this guy
this guy we
think do you have a case do you
always
war you don't have a case or
this is we
could find nothing
which is what's been going on
by the way
is now the grand jury is
something that
only a district attorney can
can call
into existence or far as I know
I could
be wrong so that was pretty
powerful DEP
as far as I know it's a district
attorney that does these grand
juries so
okay look at the federal level
I don't
know how it works but they
really their
job is to determine if there
might be if
there's a there there and I've
always
heard it's all they have you
but they
are they're picked from the
public and
they're one of the Lib Joe's
friends of
mine was a grand jury member
for a long
time got into it you just think
it's
great you get to hear all this
it's all
secret information and stuff to
you that
might not even be stop stop how
can a
Lib Joe also known as a
journalist don't
you immediately get kicked off
and you
ki if I went
I've been asked for jury duty I
said
yeah hurry duty is not the same
it's not
thank you this is what I'm
asking this
is what I want to understand
different
the animal so how does he is he
does he
have buddies how did you get on
this
grand jury I don't know how he
got on
would you mind asking him next
time you
talk to it I think I know but
it was
some Miss mundane but once
you're on it
and then you're on no matter
what the
case is it's like a club like
the Grand
Old Opry it tends to be about a
specific
situation so it's like do you
investigate one thing and then
the grand
jury gets dissolved and does
the grand
jury get paid for their time
yeah but
it's I think it's the same as
jury pays
mostly there's a lot of things
that the
grand especially in California
grand
juries have these grand juries
you they
even they're just special kind
of person
and in some cases you even have
a badge
they give you a badge and a
decoder ring
yes pull over by the cops cues
me a
grand jury member we need this
I need
one of those badges like a
shield it's
like an actual she lures a star
badge
that once I've seen her
Starbucks are
like a sheriff's deputy
yeah is this is this in the
Constitution
this Grand Jury idea
well now you asked me questions
I can't
answer but I'm not sure the
history of
the grand jury but we could
look it up
and then have some knowledge
about it
won't take much effort well I
appreciate
you giving a little insight
because I
don't think anyone really I
even learned
a few things the fact that you
can
you're on a grand jury and just
keep
getting called back for other
grand jury
stuff and you're a journalist
/lib Joe
and that says a lot I've always
heard a
grand jury can indict a ham
sandwich
that's that's the line I've
heard and so
I've kind of held to that well
I think
that's probably true if they
wanted to
mm-hmm but most of them do
their jobs
and they don't do that I mean
otherwise
Trump would have been indicted
by now
it's really I mean I just know
okay so
he's keeping the grand jury for
another
six months all these people are
sequestered they know they just
called
in it's like a job you know you
kept to
go in every so often nice maybe
that's
my exit be grand jury my they
dissolve
these grand juries you by the
way my
great exit idea of butt-wipes
that are a
glove so you can just turn them
inside
out and throw them out and not
contribute to fatbergs yeah
already
invented oh yeah you can get
them on
Amazon
great minds great minds yeah I
don't
know how I don't know how great
this guy
he's different five cents I
can't
believe someone came up with my
idea
about gloves so anyway that's
that yeah
yeah it's just gonna be never
endings
and keep on going
yeah that's what I would do if
I was
just like a full it's a job
it's pays
well you got a lot of power and
you got
people working for you taking
you you
know the people getting your dry
cleaning bringing the car
around all
that sort of
hey bring the car around thank
you very
much
so this guy Steve King who we
noticed we
talked about on the show before
he's one
of the congressmen that is yeah
Republicans you know yeah of
course he's
a Republican under attack for
being a
racist pig and and he's pretty
adamant
about fighting the the charges
and
everybody you know they give
nothing but
grief about it because he
supposedly
defends white supremacy when he
doesn't
now why is there some issue
that he's
involved in this under attack
this is
the late this is a new version
of plate
I got two clips of the same
thing but it
get a little different
dimension from
let's start with democracy now
the Steve
King DN background her a key
Republican
lawmaker and close ally of
President
Trump defended white supremacy
while
assailing the diversity of the
incoming
lawmakers in an interview
published
Thursday Iowa Congress member
Steve King
told the New York Times quote
white
nationalist white supremacist
Western
civilization how did that
language
become offensive why did I sit
in
classes teaching me about the
merits of
our history in our civilization
unquote
Congress member King went on to
criticize the freshman class of
Democratic lawmakers with its
record
number of women and people of
color
saying quote you could look
over there
and think the Democratic Party
is no
country for white men King said
alright
this is a really bad this is a
just
again who's driving is full
who's
driving he never ever defended
white
supremacy and they don't have a
quote of
defending white supremacy he
was just
saying that these terms you
can't even
mention them any moral people
get all
over your case you can't even
say the
words white nationalist he says
he's not
a white nationalist but he says
if you
even use the word then all of a
sudden
you are and that's all he's
bitching
about and he's kind of if you
listen to
the CBS report which is Steve
King again
I think they least make it a
little more
palatable of a little more
realistic but
they're after this guy for some
reason
because I regret the heartburn
that has poured forth upon this
Congress
in this country and especially
in my
state that's as close as Iowa
congressman steve king came to
apologizing today for comments
being
called abhorrent racist and
reckless by
members of his own party in a
New York
Times interview published
Thursday the
Republican lawmaker asked white
nationalist white supremacists
Western
civilization how did that
language
become offensive facing a
growing
backlash today King took to the
House
floor to explain himself under
any fair
political definition I am
simply an
American nationalist this
conviction
does not make me a white
nationalist or
a white supremacist tonight
South
Carolina senator Tim Scott the
only
black Republican in the Senate
calling
out King when I have to hit the
pause
button to have a conversation
about race
and racism and and polarizing
comments
by other folks in my party it
makes it
far more difficult for us to
sell the
conservative brand and writing
in the
Washington Post
some in our party wonder why
Republicans
are constantly accused of
racism it is
because of our silence when
things like
this are said House Speaker
Nancy Pelosi
condemning Kings comments to
has two
primary challengers one of whom
told the
Des Moines Register yesterday I
won't
embarrass the State Garrett
Haake NBC
News the capital Oh so this is
just a
pre challenge we're just a
families just
challenging everybody just
getting pre
challenged underway yeah geez
you know
these people they better do
some work
too while they're at it and
they're not
gonna do any worse and work for
us as I
was searching I searched the
Google's
which I always do during show
days yeah
Steve King under attack every
link now
on on my Google results page
has a news
guard icon next to it because
you put
that app on you yeah to show me
if I
should even click on the link
so in
other words the list of Google
links
have I ever won it to the right
there's
a little well there's that
actually
happens with the vast actually
to the
left it's not a letter laughs
yeah right
to the right real that's not
that's
that's that's unsightly yeah so
it moves
the link over one spot because
the the
guard is there about that and
get this
thing oh yeah you need this you
need
this thing anything red is what
I'd
click on that's what I was
looking for
it took me three pages I say
well some
good three pages now four page
so I have
a counter it this is
counter-intuitive
it's gonna get if I was running
that
that little plugin I would
definitely be
looking for the red one so I
could click
on them to see what the hell's
going on
there I'm sure they're also
reporting
back I'm sure I'm sure I'm sure
publicist says building up nice
little
little record of Who I am but
you're
like well just get a VPN and
then they
can screw themselves it's
actually it's
kind of nice because exactly as
you say
when you do a Google search you
really
want to get the red one so
here's my
first read one page ten the
Palmer
report that has a red a red be
careful
notice on it no what does the
Palmer
have to say yesterday we
brought you the
story of how a Republican
harvesting of
Iowa's long history of racism
and gun
fanaticism posted a racial
attack
against it's actually seems
like it's a
kind of anti King it's
attacking him yes
well he's got that one right no
you
should get a red checkmark a
green one
he's one of the good guys yeah
I mean
but every single other one is
is all
green yeah that's just need a
yellow and
an orange for colors crooked
media has a
new icon it it's gray and it
has a - oh
this website is still in the
process of
being rated by news guard huh
interesting
well since we're talking about
forbidden
words because that's really
what it is
it's time to educate ourselves
just keep
ourselves up to date up to speed
o current with the with the
with the
kids now the University of
california-davis has an LGBTQIA
Resource
Center which is not correct in
my
opinion I believe it as LGBTQ
Qi AAP ke
now but they say lesbian gay
bisexual
transgender queer intersex and
asexual
and there are and they have a
listing
here of words that hurt and why
well
that hurts far as I'm concerned
that
moniker they're using their
acronym is
is is in itself hurtful hurtful
yeah
would you like to hear it's
only it's
about 2:15 Oh what do you think
yes
words that hurt and why
sometimes we say
words without realizing the
impact they
may have on others say what you
mean and
mean what you say take time to
educate
yourself about language and
histories of
oppression now that would be my
this is
added by me we'll start off
with bitch
bitch is in hip-hop music
targets and
dehumanizes women even if used
towards
men including queer and gay men
Wow
I know a lot of gay men who
call each
other bitch but ok it
reinforces sexism
so this is a word that hurts
and should
be removed abolished ghetto yeah
describe something or someone
as cheap
worn-out poor dangerous etc
reference to
you guys ghetto you're
someone's ghetto
yes ghetto yes this is this is
a hurtful
word yeah illegal alien hurtful
reduces
that is just a statement of fact
well maybe who you're supposed
to use
instead let me see
reduces undocumented immigrants
to
something less than human
fixate on
isn't fixates on legal status
instead of
people as individuals asserts
that some
people like a perpetrator
asserts that
some people belong here more
than others
do ignores political citizens
this is your California of
Davis systems
you see thing asserts that some
people
belong here more than others do
ignores
political social and economic
factors
that impact people of color
while they
are all illegal aliens people
of color I
don't think so in fact no I
know they're
not all right uh here's one
that I've
done well I should I got yep
no homo well you haven't done
no homo
now in a long time but in years
you know
it's like guys I love you man I
love you
bro no homo yes it'll Disick it
cornballs thing that bros like
to say
stresses the speaker's
heterosexuality
masculinity and/or other traits
to avoid
being perceived as LGBTQIA he
goes goes
to great lengths to avoid
association
with anything queer you know
I've always
thought of it as just some dumb
thing
that people say because it's
kind of
funny it was for a while until
it yeah
I've been the 80s yeah oh boy
oh you
actually you got away with it
what did you call a OC what do
you call
her an idiot an idiot no you
called her
stupid
any other words OHS any other
words
stupid and I haven't used moron
but I
could well here are words that
are that
hurts
retarded lame crazy and dumb I
didn't
use any of those I know you
skated right
through it yeah so it's okay to
call
someone an idiot yes or even a
moron but
you can't call them dumb no
stupid you
can call them stupid stupid
you're
stupid
ah another phrase that's so gay
yes
another late 80s phrase that's
going out
of vogue yeah whore ho or slut
whore
whore Oh
surprising
who are cooler I think who
maybe okay
yeah who where she's a whore a
whore
bisexuality doesn't really
exist people
are only gay or straight of
statement of
fact in that document
it's what that's a it's a
hurtful phrase
who says that well apparently
enough
people to put it on list this
denies the
fluidity of sexuality with
fluidity
[Music]
fluids today and dismisses
people's
experiences and definitions of
self
people deserve the right to
define their
own I doubt get bla bla fine
yeah yeah
well on the other side on the
other side
of that we have I think
everyone is
really bisexual ah yeah yeah
yeah that's
the classic thing a bisexual
will say
this is often meant to
acknowledge the
fluidity of sexuality but what
they said
that's a good thing this is a
way of
checking people to see if
they're you
know just to come on you're
looking for
somebody say yeah I think
you're right
well next on the list I never
thought
about it much but I think you
might be
right
you're too femme to be bisexual
who says
that let's be some other come on
bisexual people just want
straight
privilege I've never heard this
oh wait
what yeah this is a hurtful
thing and
people say it apparently but
check it
out here's the next one this
has gotta
be my favorite bisexual people
are just
greedy and want to have sex with
everyone see this is the
University of
California Davis publisher
that's the
farmers up there okay now we
get into
some other things who do you see
yourself ending up with this is
in the
same stupid book yeah it's not
a blind
want somebody from Davis to
send me a
copy of this book it's not a
book so the
book just online an old crappy
Resource
Center this is another way of
implying
one has to quote end up gay or
straight
and ignores bisexuality as an
ident
who is bisexual wrote this yeah
the big
problem okay so then we have
people like
this writing so that's just an
agenda
then we have tranny yeah I
would never
say that well interesting
though our our
official transsexuals of the
show called
themselves trannies but and
they don't
mind us saying it you just
don't like
doing it yeah this is my
favorite what
is your real name I mean the
one you
were given at birth this is of
course
any douchebag would say there's
no
you're not allowed to say
he/she as ly
hasn't hyphenated if you don't
know
because you should find out
before you
use it
of course yes I guess is
impractical
there's a lot of horrible
things that
won't even say this is my
favorite
thought that's a big one these
days but
th ot thought does that mean
thought is
an acronym that whore over
there thought
yeah this is only come up yet
recently
when you're saying that word
well you
say look at her the thought
that whore
over there I've never heard
this is a
big thing right now
it's it we're online no an
online let me
tell you what's going on there
are
entire groups of people who are
reporting sex workers webcam
girls other
things like that and it's
called that
thought some like the girls
alone they
report them to the IRS why they
don't
make enough money that the IRS
should
care it's called the thought
but yeah
I'm just telling you you also
can't use
the word ugly anymore even if
somebody's
ugly how about butt ugly is
that better
and doesn't say and this one
this is a
OC needs to cut this out you
guys she
says that a lot you guys all
right you
guys and this is a no no
because it
erases the identities of people
who are
in the room generalizing a
group of
people to be masculine wrong
I said all the time to women
the art was
wrong
and finally I'm such a fat ass
right now
so you can't say that about
yourself
because they what if you're a
big fat
ass the guy from Cincinnati he
called he
says he's a fat guy from
Cincinnati sir
: the friendly fat man from
Cincinnati
you can't say give him his
money back ah
well we're gonna go that far it
demeans
and devalued fatness and fat
bodies
reinforces harmful assumptions
that fat
people are gluttonous and are
fat
because they have less
restraint the
friendly fat guy there's a
reinforced
effective fat men are
friendlier jolly
it implies there is such an
acceptable
amount of food to eat and
anything more
as disgusting or that enjoy
apply any of
such thing well this is what's
being
taught in collage this is
what's going
on in colleges I'm sure that's
not the
worst case scenario no well
you're up to
date thank you yeah I mean this
is very
one of those rare No Agenda
reports we
often do that really keep
people on the
on the on the positive tip on
them yeah
the cutting edge cutting edge
of culture
all right well while you're on
the
cutting edge of culture let me
tell you
where as we're all aghast about
the
Chinese social score and
everyone's
flipping out about it no boy
like even
Hillary Clinton referred to a
dystopian
future meanwhile is just
building here
in the most beautiful way yeah
we have a
control system like that it's
called for
your FICO score oh yeah it
won't be long
until you can wear little badge
that has
your score on it I hear this
converses
combo all the time people
talking about
what's your FICO score yeah it
happens
to be that the keeper has some
outrageous score of like 886
which you
know she's very reluctant to
actually
marry me because she knows
what's gonna
happen yeah fight goes good
tanked all the way down to 500
or
something come a little closer
to my
credit sorry there may be help
on the
horizon for me people like me
who have I
had not looked recently but I'm
sure
it's really bad I've never
cared yeah my
FICO score it looks like
they're going
to help out you can get a boost
you can
get a boost as much and maybe a
hundred
point boost so I'm naturally
we're all
interested because for those
who don't
know it this credit worthiness
report
this FICO this number lets
people know
if you should rate if you can
rent an
apartment even if you have the
money if
that just second well you have
kind of a
low FICO score you may have the
money
but I don't know you know
this rumor that some people
look at it
in hiring and jobs it's become
this
important order there's
documentation
for this so it's very important
slave
well think of it as the credit
catch-22
in order to borrow money you
need a good
credit score but to get a high
number
you have to show a solid credit
history
with that in mind Experian one
of the
three major credit reporting
companies
is piloting a program called
Experian
boost the premise is simple if
you're
willing to share more of your
personal
information you may see an
immediate
increase to your credit score
consumers
who opt into the program allow
Experian
to access their bank account
and track
utility or phone payments that
data is
added to their credit file and
then they
get an updated score experience
says
scores rose for two out of three
consumers participating in its
pilot
phase and 10% of those with
their
so-called thin file had enough
credit
history to be given a score for
the
first time now there's another
program
expected to be rolled out this
summer
called ultra FICO it's a
partnership
between Experian the FinTech
firm
Felicity and FICO the credit
scoring
company consumers again must
opt in to
allow access to their savings
and
checking accounts their
balances will
then be monitored to see how
they manage
cash flow and pay their bills
and all
to calculate a new impossibly
higher
ultra FICO score now that's
good news
for many consumers and vendors
- who
will be able to draw from a
larger pool
now of potential borrowers it's
great
news
just let him access your bank
accounts
they can see how you're doing
it'll give you a little grass a
little
charts like oh do a little
better pay on
time you can do it come on your
little
engine it could Wow this is your
dystopian future this is where
all right
this is what's disgusting yeah
and CNBC
is Gitty about it oh yeah I
think that's
great I can't wait do they have
one
critical thinker at CNBC ever
that can
maybe say hey yes they do
oh good Jim Cramer listen there
is
another product idea in here
somewhere
I mean you've seen the black
mirror
episode where you can look at
some of
his augmented reality we can see
someone's score above their
head you
know I think that there's
there's a way
for us to create some kind of
app or
something yes I agree that it
takes your
foot you're ultra FICO score
your
Experian boost ultra FICO score
and then
moves you from your thin file
and then
you can add stuff to it now I'm
just
taking how many likes you have
on
Twitter and just you know
average it out
and give someone a score higher
or lower
and we just need to claim it
take FICO
it's just commercial commercial
company
who started this business and
now
they're like the government
standard of
worthiness as a citizen yeah we
can go
on top of that we just need to
brand it
right we can have a better
score that
incorporates the FICO score it
was
something that I teach like
it's just
loud if you show side do
business if
you're shy so sideboob you get
extra
points on your Instagram let's
see this
is where the author I'm sorry
I'll stop
Klout was trying to do
something like
right cloud it was it was a
reputational
score yeah reputational score
but they
could
really get that for some reason
one of
the reasons was people like
myself
wouldn't join mm-hmm and I'm
not just
saying I didn't do it that but
lots of
people were enjoy cuz it's like
who
cares what they think my Klout
score is
I mean you how hard up are you
for self
esteem yeah you have to work
get a claw
claw score
it was quite if it could be
institutionalized which is what
you're
suggesting as opposed to being
just
someone yes to McDonald's kind
of thing
which was junk well it was it
was Klout
with a K which apparently was
purchased
by lithium technologies and
they shut it
down so I don't haven't looked
into
lithium yeah they're doing
there was
possibility that GD p-- APR may
have
played into clouts downfall
this was
pretty recent when did this
happen this
year or they just folded
interesting
yeah just folded hmm well they
they
appear to have only done like
oh here's
what you mentions on Twitter
Facebook
and Google but I think you
should be you
know how many for how many
pictures are
in how many pictures of friends
are you
also in the picture you know
that's what
that mean that would be which I
would
agree with that plus so you
could get a
plus for that there's gotta be
a little
more I think the way they make
it work
because nobody really cares
about what
crime is about to say it should
be a
little more spooky spooky yeah
like
spy-ish it's like CIA stuff
right what
you just said is how many times
are you
in the picture somebody else
took yeah
that's what I said yeah that's
why I
said that's spooky that's great
you need
to be more spooky you need to
have more
ideas that are spooky spooky
ish right
stuff said that way you can
build the
company up and you got some of
these
algorithms you cumbersome L
goes that do
this searching it goes through
the
Flickr pictures all the rest
and then
then that one of these
operations buys
you we yes we notice your hands
yeah we
need a name for it though
if we if we have the right
acronym or
the right name I think we could
build it
we reap score the what creep
score creep
score
no keep working on it John it's
if we
did it with a K and we could
come up
with a great freaking score
score yeah
there might be okay but it's too
confusing we want it to be
something
aspirational that people
realize yes
you're right creep scores
negative has
to be aspirational now think of
something okay thank for show
11:03 none
of them creeps by the way that
was about
value score something like that
I think
there's already a value score
out there

well-wishers
and producers for show 11:03
want to
thank each and every one of
them and
those who donated lesser
amounts for
supporting this particular
episode yes
and thank you so much because
of our
model the way we work this show
that it
is completely supported by the
people
who enjoy the program but
you're really
producing it that's why you're
all known
as producers we don't have to
deal with
such things as you know giving
our our
audience members a flu shot like
happened on the Golden Globe
Awards you
know I'm just like that's
that's the
that's what Rite Aid had to do
by the
way irony of Rite Aid
sponsoring flu
shots for celebrities on the
Golden
Globes the New York Stock
Exchange is
warning rite-aid they will be
delisted
if their shares fall below $1
and
they're closed so maybe then
for the
reverse split me yeah right
maybe they need a little
strategy on how
they want to add
reverse split that's your bet
that's
your easy way out meet-up news
so we
still have the 22nd of February
on deck
in Des Moines Iowa I got to
talk to Mimi
cuz I don't hear any noise
coming out of
what's going on I thought that
was in in
an organization mode you know
anything
about it other than from me I
don't know
anything I'll ask maybe she
she'll tell
me I sent her to producers who
wanted to
organize okay well she's been
busy okay
that's fine that's why I'm
checking
Texas meetup we have a date and
a venue
Oh bull March 2nd
Saturday March 2nd yeah I wish
it could
have been March 3rd 3 3 but
that's a
Sunday and here's how of it
yeah Fridays
are better but shout is okay
it's well
we could do Friday I mean it's
just
better it's not we've been
doing ok the
reason Friday's better is
because you
have a bunch of people it
depends on
where you put this if it's
gonna be
something like a long trip that
everyone's gonna have to take
then it
doesn't make any difference but
if it's
in a town where people work and
they
commute to their job they would
like to
be their Guardian town on
Friday and
they quit work around 5:00 bold
old
nowadays is for but they quit
work and
then they come right to the
event
otherwise if it's Saturday they
go home
and then they're now there is
some
distance from the event because
we're
not in did town anymore they're
in the
suburbs or they're someplace
else and
then they have to make another
trip into
town which is a lot of extra
work and a
lot and you lose you'll lose
people well
it's going to be Saturday and
just
listening to you and you have
no idea
what Austin traffic is like
yeah you
leave your job at 5:00 and
you're gonna
be at a meet-up not until 7:30
so no
it's not gonna happen on a
Friday he
will be Saturday and I will
tell you
about the venue based upon a
note I
received two days ago Adam I
was turned
on your podcast by the grime
Americans
and absolutely loved it
growing up in Austin the true
Austinite
I love listening to art bell
the George
Gordon School of Law Alex Jones
when he
was still on public access and
pirate
microbe and FM radio right here
in town
you two guys really nail a sane
fact-based version of the
truths that
are out there in front of all
of our
faces
Austan meetup could be planned
at Austin
beer works where I work he
doesn't just
work there he is the brewery
ambassador
so if he says you know if you're
inclined to do it there and not
only
planning one let's do it so I
had it
back and forth with him so
they're very
happy to host us they can the
Austin
beer Works has a 250 person
capacity he
says he just like a heads up
more or
less how many people are coming
so they
can staff appropriately and
they will
also bring in a food truck for
us and if
the weather holds up the patio
is very
nice and shade it allows for
more room
to mill around and this is Ross
Reynolds
the brewery ambassador at
Austin beer
works and looks like we're
going through
this March 2nd ok and this is

lots to
talk about okay well let's talk
about it
okay how about act 9:00 okay
9:00
buffaloed again she let Jean
Laviolette
Jean the yellow vest the yellow
yellows
that's right
it is now act 9 so 9 weekends
in a row
as many as 80,000 police
officers will
be deployed across France this
weekend
as the authorities prepare for
the 9th
week of the yellow vest
protests by the
way I keep saying the next show
is
Sunday with Thursday today
Sunday I'm so
confused
5,000 police are expected in
Paris alone
for the July Jean movement
which was
first created to oppose a
planned fuel
tax rise but grew into a print
notice
how they euronews just kind of
skipped
over the carbon tax oh it's
just a fuel
tax first created to oppose a
planned
fuel tax rise but go into a
protest
about in a corner and spending
power
that the demonstrators carried
a range
of placards including one that
called on
president Emmanuel macron to
either give
in or step down just once the
demands
are quite simple and the
answers are
either violent or strict this
demonstrator says when there is
real
recognition that we're here in
the
streets and macron acknowledges
this in
the media then maybe we'll make
some
progress
Frances struggles to contain the
movements in parts because it
has no
apparent leader nor is it
affiliated to
a political party or a trade
union
making negotiations rather
difficulty
past weeks have seen violence
on the
streets but some she dejan have
put the
blame for that on far left and
far right
groups fantastic how now they
say that
the protesters themselves are
saying the
violence is coming from far
left and far
right which in fact was what
president
McCrone said he's the one that
started
that yeah they're these guys man
this whole French thing I mean
he's
French but they think they
think that
they're gonna negotiate no this
this
will not end the phret the
French is
gonna link the government down
it ends
when your head is lopped off
yeah that's
where they're always that's
what the end
yeah that's their target always
that's
their endgame everyone has to
quit
oh I don't see that happening I
don't
either but yeah Stewart is gonna
continue article 13 of the EU
copyright
reform law you know a new year
new round
new chances looks like we're
going for a
January 21st finalization you'll
remember this John this was
being
discussed primarily a article
13 as it
would basically prohibit any
copyrighted
work from being used anywhere
without
direct attribution payment and
all kinds
of stuff and it seems like an
another
attack on fair use and night me
as an
attack on fair use well
negotiators
currently have reached an
agreement on
the core of article 13 they
still want
to make Internet platforms
directly
liable for copyright
infringement this
is going to be a tough one for
the
social nets and the Google's
here's the
timeline this week 18th the
national
governments will vote on the
council's
position ahead of the final
negotiation
this is how this is a find use
the words
how fucked up the EU is
so we're talking about
something that is
completely unenforceable will
ruin
Commerce they need EU I guess
hopefully
will ruin social media I don't
want to
say it's a bad thing
but here's how it works national
governments vote on the
council's
position ahead of the final
negotiation
this is the moment of truth for
EU
member state governments will
Italy keep
its promise to vote against it
will
Germany say yeah we're against
it or
will go for it as long as small
businesses are excluded Poland
up in the
air so that's the 18th that's
just
before final on who's behind
this that
anybody wants it in the first
place what
is wrong with the current
copyright that
we have the copyright they're
very
liberal copyright laws that we
have
where you maintain a copyright
for 150
years after your death I don't
know who
wants this Disney probably yeah
probably
January 21st then we will see
the
trilogue negotiations between
Parliament
and Council which is an attempt
to
finalize the text then March
April
timeframe final vote in the
council the
Starfleet Command
you know unelected people March
25th
28th but more likely mid-april
they'll
have the final vote in the
European
Parliament so here's the
current status
article 13 applies to Internet
platforms
that organize and promote large
amounts
of copy write protected works
uploaded
by their users in order to make
a profit
so that is let's see are they
saying
here copy protect
not mean copyright infringing
ah this is
what they're arguing about so
the art
that I think it's come is
coming down to
semantics and words copyright
protected
not the same as copyright
infringing all
creative text photos of course
everything is automatically
copyrighted
more or less yes so there's
going to be
this this distinction of copy
protected
versus copy and copyright
copyright
protected versus copyright
infringing
see it's still about who will
be liable
for it and if the social if the
social
media networks can demonstrate
that they
are doing everything they can
to deploy
the strictest possible upload
filters
this is how never going to work
no
that's not gonna work put it
what is the
real target here are they
worried about
people you know reproducing a
photo and
ap photo on their Facebook feed
no are
they worried about downloading
a new
latest new new movie I actually
think
it's more about we're seeing
politicians
now in the US who have figured
it out
that the old system of
politicians and
news news corporations working
together
and to determine policy to set
the mood
to set yet to set the tone the
narrative
the in Europe they've still
haven't real
and they're not in the States
either but
we'll having figured it out
that that
way of doing things is over
they're
still operating on the premise
of well
if we can control the news and
make sure
there's no fake news and people
aren't
using you know stuff to create
fake news
out of other news then we can
control
the news help our news friends
not only
the good news gets out it to me
it feels
something like that yeah you're
thinking
it's more Disney like generally
speaking
if anything gets this far it
has to have
Disney like characteristics
meaning some
you know otherwise it wouldn't
get this
far I mean just a bunch of
lamebrains
from the news media they can't
come up
with a scheme like you just
described
well they already have this
the copyrighted works and
YouTube and
you know they have things in
place so
it's I don't think they're
relitigated
that there's something else
going on
here we have to look into this
somebody
out there knows that we have
lawyers
what is what it's really really
about
now somebody knows what the
trials are
going oh it's just stupidity
well it's protection of
something cuz
everything they do is either to
protect
some brand of cheese you know
some soap
[Music]
you know the agreements was it
the the
big TPP agreement you know
whatever is
public and that was to protect a
pharmaceutical company
exactly to protect what kind of
drugs we
got it's not about you stupid
Slayers to
protect the prices of drugs is
not a
scam exactly so there's
something scam
assha bout this but we don't
specifically not as long as we
find out
it'll open up a huge door of
information
it will see what the hell's
going on
I only once by the way Austin
announces
yet another new ductless
mobility
solution oh god now what yeah
let's see
what the name of this outfit is
Oh Joe
Oh Jo Jo Jo electric announced
Austin
will be the launch of its first
sit-down
scooter service that really
looks stupid
go there you know what I would
say if it
wasn't you spelling
Oh Jo electric if I wasn't know
if I
didn't learn right now to say
to not be
able to say this I would say
these
scooters look so gay but I'm
not allowed
to say say that Vespa ask
InDesign the
light electric vehicles hit
speeds of
the commuter scooter buy a Joe
Electric
how many are they deploying we
don't we
already have was it nine
thousand
scooters God knows how many
bikes looks
like it looks like a moat it oh
you know
what it looks like it looks
like a vest
but with no motor yeah yeah
yeah it does
look like a Vespa and has a
little box
on the back the compartment
down the
street with this dangerous
little guy
can't get probably if he gets
to 25
miles an hour would be
Mira no 20 only 20 is Austin
regulation
20 miles an hour but it has a
cool
little that little box on the
back you
can put your dog in there this
is yeah
yeah little baskets got baskets
what
what am I thinking is I don't
want to
say well what am i hearing
there John
what's going on I'm playing the
video oh
okay I understand kill it kill
it that
usually you can't hear it
motion alarm
said I turned off the sound
wireless key
fob ooh 25 mile range oh brother
top speed 20 you're right that
is the
top speed it's a piece of crap
yeah and
and just more shit on the
sidewalk yeah
well the other people are
taking another
yacht drive to their yacht they
threw in
the back meanwhile something
and I
although people are getting
hurt and I
don't like to see that
something get
hurt with all these things
something
beautiful is happening in
Switzerland
the lime scooters all received a
software update which is an
over-the-air
update and I'll read the
headline lime
halts scooter service in
Switzerland
after possible software glitch
throws
users off mid ride yes here's
what
happens
so you're riding along at 20
miles an
hour and then all of a sudden
it's
anti-theft kicks in which
blocks the
whole thing up and you go you
know
lining yeah boom this is the
way to do
it we got to get into their
updates cue
mat it goes backwards there's
all kinds
of cool stuff we could do I
don't want
people getting hurt but there's
another
one that right after this ran
off the
YouTube another one called the
Xiaomi me
electric scooter review by some
dilled
millennial who's got like you
know he's
got the whole it's got the
throat beard
he's got the whole scruffy look
to him
he's now he's going on and on
mostly promoting himself but
he's gonna
eventually review a scooter I
don't
think we need this
in the cities of Basel and
Zurich
scooters been taken off the
road for
safety checks after multiple
ports of
people injuring themselves
after their
scooters braked abruptly while
in use
the company sent out a notice
to uterus
presented in screenshots below
in German
the foal okay now it currently
is
investigating whether the
malfunction is
due to a software fault where
an update
of the software causes a scooter
inadvertently to reboot during
a ride
thus engaging the anti-theft
immobilization system but if
you've been
thrown off they will give you a
15
minute credit doctor's
appointment
injuries fixed this is this is
this
shitshow is just starting this
it's
really funny though and we get
these I
looked at that the the the the
article
about the the Vespa scooter was
at the
Ojo anyone if you listening go
look at
the show notes when they're up
in a show
knows calm you can see this map
of where
all these things are deployed
it's it's
it's really a small area of
downtown
where they're just flooding the
place
and and we walk on the street
it's just
everywhere there's things
things laying
around scooters bikes now these
Vespas
people don't give a shit about
God
Maduro out of Venezuela get a
little
update on him we're here I'm
speaking a
little bit and he's blaming
everything
on Trump formal legal
constitutional and
peaceful ceremony into a world
war
against our country the US and
its
allies have refused to
recognize medoras
presidency calling last year's
election
illegitimate other Latin
American
leaders including Ava Morales
of Bolivia
Daniel Ortega of Nicaragua and
Miguel
Diaz canal of Cuba welcomed
maduras
re-election and joined
Thursday's
inauguration in Caracas the
Trump
administration's continued to
ratchet up
sanctions against Venezuela
as its economy faces
hyperinflation with
severe shortages of food and
medicine
about 3 million Venezuelans
have left
the country in recent years
with many
settling in Colombia and Brazil
yeah
that's just going down the tubes
first I like she kind of sides
with this
Maduro character even though
he's the
Trump of Venezuela
you know Maduro that's not what
you said
no no I he's blaming Charlie's
blaming
I'm sorry he's blaming Trump I
was gonna
say but he's not the Trump a
bit worse
of course she's on board
because it's we
have immigration illegal
immigrant
entry to say that illegal entry
because
we fucked up all the South
American
countries that's basically what
that's
the story right there which is
also
Trump's fault it is a mouse
yeah 40
years 40 years 50 years of
policy his
Trump's fault that makes makes
sense
well what also makes sense is to
flashback for a moment the news
came to
us that the brain damaged
caused to
employees of the MB United
States
Embassy in Cuba that that
really just
was because of crickets grin
it's just
crickets and a note from
someone oh yeah
we got notes from people who
live in the
region and I've said I've heard
crickets
all my life I don't have brain
damage
that's what he says we can't
prove it of
course could have could have
could have
but these people were you know
that were
physically ill and but you know
the word
came out it's crickets everyone
everyone's like oh what a joke
wow so
glad it was just crickets
wasn't some
directed-energy weapon or
anything oh
man whoa that's good I think
every all
the m5m are on board everyone
is good
with it everyone's cool to go
right have
you seen anything else than Wow
geez we're a bunch of dopes it
was just
crickets I'd like to just go
back to the
Andrea Mitchell show on MSNBC
for her
reporting when this first took
place and
just recognize what
she was saying and what her
sources are
the bizarre incidents beginning
last
October left a group of US
diplomats
with severe hearing loss blamed
on what
one official says could have
been a
surveillance device deployed
inside or
outside the Americans Havana
residences
which are all owned by Cuba's
government
several US agencies the CIA FBI
and
State Department's Diplomatic
Security
Service are all investigating
we don't
know exactly where this came
from okay
we can't blame any one
individual or a
country at this point yet an
investigation is underway we
take that
very seriously Canada also says
some of
its diplomats in Havana also
suffered
symptoms newscaster says the
government
is investigating and quote Cuba
has
never nor would it ever allow
that the
Cuban territory be used for any
action
against accredited diplomatic
agents or
their families so who's
responsible
perhaps a third country some
suggest
possibly even Russia where
there has
been a surge of harassment and
outright
attacks against US diplomats in
recent
years or just a surveillance
attempt
gone terribly wrong says a
former CIA
veteran I personally think it
was an
accident
a surveillance attempt I do not
think
the Cubans would attack us
physically
like that especially given the
timing
the US has already expelled two
Cuban
diplomats from Washington
because of the
unexplained illnesses in Havana
only a
first step depending on the
investigation Andrea Mitchell
NBC News
Washington
it was not the CIA it was not
any other
Intelligence Service it was not
the
shill she brought in it was
none of
those people was not the State
Department who said this was
crickets it
was a bunch of jamokes who took
a
recording from Associated Press
that
they say was the recording and
they
matched up the waveform looked
just like
crickets mystery solve
everybody's on
board bullshit
disgusting I don't get how
everybody got
on board after those early
reports we
played both of the ones that we
had in
the archives and it doesn't
make any
sense unless the early
according was completely
bullcrap well
doesn't sound like it it sounds
like all
of their stuff that's really
true yeah
it sounds very believable and
it was
seems like they did some work
on it and
they even brought a CIA shill
and
they're kind of hemmed in hard
which it
was me with at the time I
that's what I
thought I said was CIA had
something to
do with this because of the way
that guy
reacted but the rest of this is
crazy
and it's being dropped nobody's
gonna
follow up on some kind of memo
went out
I was like okay it's crickets
shut up
that's your news yeah that's
your news
have you heard about this the
Earth's
magnetic field moving faster
than
expected well I would expect to
hear
something like that but well
it's
starting to get a little bit of
reporting okay we know it was
wandering
a bit well it always does and
as an as
an aviator lips every so often
yeah well
as an aviator you know you
often have to
have your because you have med
net
magnetic north and true north
and you
have to have your compass
adjusted when
magnetic north changes and this
happens
typically at a 15 mile per hour
rate
they kind of you know it's it's
we have
a case you didn't know the
earth is
filled with all kinds of liquid
molten
goo there's magnetic and now
it's it's
picked up its pace and the goo
is moving
at almost 50 miles an hour
pushing the the actual North
Pole
magnetic north pole closer to
Siberia
and the only place you really
hear about
this right now is you know
people who
work on GPS is stuff like that
because
they got a you have to you have
to
change some of the code to take
this
these small deviations into
into account
but you don't think that could
change
anything unlike I don't know a
global
scale do you like what what
you're
suggesting I don't know the
weather
wobble or do we wha
yeah they'll still be wobble
boring
let's say gabagool in the
middle is
getting you know unbalanced I'd
be kind
of interesting
well that's what it seemed well
no one
knows geologists don't
understand nobody
knows anything but yet climate
changes
were all in Sciences in shut up
it's all
good to go we don't even know
what's
happening inside the earth I
didn't know
it was increasing in yes maybe
we're
ready for a flip I mean it
could happen
in our lifetime it seems
unlikely acting
but we had to flip a couple
years ago
and flail we didn't have a
flipper
couple years ago I thought we
did in
your lifetime yes look were the
polls
reversal it was south and the
South was
north are you kidding me I'm
not kidding
you that I remember something
like that
yeah pole reversal the poles
had okay
the poles have reversed
frequently over
the history of the plant the
last
reversal see was only seven
hundred
eighty thousand years ago see
in my
lifetime yeah well you're home
and okay
seven eight thousand years or
so it
reverses about what they're
expecting
they don't talk about this so
much is
that in the process of
reversing the
poles actually there's not
enough
influence North and South Pole
that it
kind of kind of shuts down
before it
flips so we get to see the
aurora
borealis everywhere
oh not only that satellites
will fall
from the sky a geomagnetic
apocalypse
you're reading from the global
warming
no I'm actually reading from
National
Geographic for what year
January 31st
2018
it says the satellites are
gonna fall
from the sky well it says
that's what
people think might happen it's
a he
literally says we are all going
to do
just because of things flip
doesn't mean
gravity's going away anytime
soon we are
all going to die eventually but
chances
are that we will not
immediately perish
when Earth's next geomagnetic
reversal
occurs that's their conclusion
okay good
yeah
it's okay if it happens soon
won't that
be bad
unclear scientists estimate the
past
polar flips have been rather
sluggish
with north and south migrating
to
opposite positions over
thousands of
years this is both good and bad
if
you're concerned about Howard G
oh my
dear a bla bla bla bla bla
alright no
one knows anything nothing but
if we can
stay with climate change there
is
something a great idea and I'd
like us
to push this idea okay to save
the world
from nasty co2 and the BBC came
up with
it Roger Harrigan the BBC
environmental
analyst so we know that meat
consumption
of meat contributes largely to
what do
they call it a carbon pollution
all
right cow the farts from the
cow just
the process the wings just all
of this
stuff so what if people been
asking us
to do hold your breath no no
eat bugs oh
yeah but ofcourse have people
eat bugs
you see bugs everywhere bugs on
the menu
now people have some kind of
reluctance
to eating bugs I think you and
I have a
reasonably big reluctance to
eating bugs
certainly to save the earth
we're not reptilian but BBC has
a great
idea
pet food manufacturers should
be forced
to make pet food from bugs well
that's
an interesting idea this is a
great idea
huh and it kind of puts two of
our
favorite memes together dogs
are people
and laugh and let them eat bugs
but a lot of what dogs eat or
byproducts
of the meat industry mm-hmm
where those
byproducts gonna go now know
they'll be
less we'll just have you know
less I
don't know I like the idea feed
your dog
is definitely a trendy idea
yeah and then the dogs you know
eventually they'll get all
angry and
start attacking their owners
yeah that's
your wishful thinking that's
right here
in National Geographic I have I
do have
a global warming story global
warming
report is the latest of oceans
warming
climate news a major new study
published
in the journal science finds
the world's
oceans are absorbing heat at a
far
faster rate than previously
predicted
finding with troubling
implications for
the future of life on Earth
the study found greenhouse gas
emissions
are warming the oceans 40
percent faster
than even the dire predictions
made by
the UN's top climate scientists
five
years ago the author's write
quote this
warming has contributed to
increases in
rainfall intensity rising sea
levels the
destruction of coral reefs
declining
ocean oxygen levels and
declines in ice
sheets glaciers and ice caps in
the
polar regions yes lots of stuff
happening tons of stuff going
on there
look at the window and the same
thing
nothing's changed I want to
play a
couple more Clips William Arkin
guy who
is this new book out we didn't
this is
the this is the during the well
writer
journalist journalist level
crap and he
left they're all just a bunch
of Spooks
let's play his his take on the
FBI well
there's a crazy collateral
damage of
donald trump and that is that
there are
a lot of liberals in america
who believe
that the CIA and the FBI is
going to
somehow save the country from
donald
trump well I'm sorry I'm not a
particular fan of either the
CIA or the
FBI and the FBI in particular
has a
deploy
horrible record in American
society from
Martin Luther King and the peace
movements of the 1960s all the
way up
through when holy and others
who have
been persecuted by the FBI and
there's
no real evidence that the FBI
is either
is that competent of an
institution to
begin with in terms of even
pursuing the
person the prosecution's that is
pursuing but yet we lionize
them we we
we hold them up on a pedestal
that
somehow they're the truth
tellers that
they're the ones who are
getting to the
bottom of things when when
there's just
no evidence that that's the
case he
never wants to work again is
that his I
don't need work I made plenty
on my
books
Wow we heard before from other
super
progressive the real left now
remember
those black guys that have that
they
have a podcast and they were
going on
it's baffled by the fact that
all these
progressives are talking about
how great
the FBI is when it's been known
to be a
good kind of a horrendous
operation
that's doing anyone any good
that's
fantastic
but you know Jaime's are still
worked
about the fact that she's you
know a
stooge yes she's she's working
in stooge
land and she has to listen to
this guy
go tell her about herself
doesn't good
you got another one from the
information
society option I thought this
was kind
of interesting well there's no
question
that the national security
establishment
has grown and has become far
more
powerful than it ever was
but here's the change we've
shifted from
the Industrial Age to the
information
age and and consequently we've
also
shifted from the dominance of
the
military-industrial complex if
you will
to a much more insidious and
much more
difficult to diagnose
information
complex so the advent of
contractors the
advent of a professional
military which
means that the military itself
and
touches fewer and fewer lives
in America
all of those work together to
make the
national security state more
and more
embedded with
in our society but yet at the
same time
more difficult to get to more
difficult
to understand so most people
would be
surprised to learn for instance
that
Amazon is one of the largest
defense
contractors that they're
building the
cloud and they're building the
the data
centers which support the
intelligence
community and support the
military and
there are other civilian
companies that
we associate with being
civilians who
are all so terrific
beneficiaries of the
military's largesse so so to me
to
diagnose properly where we
stand today
the point of the top secret
America
investigation was to show the
wild
growth of all areas of national
security
and this new invention of
homeland
security if you will but at the
same
time to point out that it wasn't
something that was necessarily
segregated from our society was
more
more embedded within our
society and
that that made it more more and
more
difficult to analyze properly
and to do
something about oh I wanted to
hear what
Amy said - that pushed them on
to the
next topic she didn't say
anything my
yeah well there it is it's just
there
will be no news by the time
it's time to
it to elect a new president
nothing and
we're riding this ship all the
way to
the bottom we get the support
to write
this baby and we will yes and we
appreciate the support we
received today
and
we're twice a week now on
Thursdays so
even though I said Sunday I
meant
Thursday and this today is
Sunday and I
have an overexposure of fake
news
coursing through my veins
that's what
causes it
thank you all for supporting
the show
thank you for producing and
remember
that we will be back on Thursday
remember sir Dvorak at org
slash in a I

Austin
Texas capital of the drones
Star State

the

until then adios mofos and such
[Music]
even morning everyone is trying
to
figure out who the Democrats
will run I
have plenty of time to consider
whether
or not to run forever we have
really
qualified people I do
interesting
results here first of all
almost 1/3 29%
said someone else I don't know
pick senator or Jenna tells 13
News he's
stepping down in order to focus
on his
run for president in 2020
george w bush
phthalo said everybody said no
he's the
one you could want to have a
beer with
yeah he'll make a great
president cuz we
want to get get drunk with him
yeah
worst for a woman though that
whole idea
well I think that women are
held to a
different standard hold on a
second I'm
gonna get me she's now revealed
that the
beer was she was sipping was a
michelob
ultra what she calls the club
soda at
beers and her favorite I have
decided to
run and we'll be making a formal
announcements within the next
week Amy
Klobuchar of of Minnesota she's
the one
that I think is interesting to
watch
because she does very well in
rural
areas which is not something
most
Democrats can say these days in
the
morning so if my florida run
doing its
independent wouldn't work
whether he
actually runs a democrat i
don't know i
know he'd be the best person to
be
President you're so I can't
either but I
bet she did
