0:00
yeah but to get a dime back is
no agenda
0:14
[Music]
0:23
where I heard 12 2019 that
maybe it's
0:28
just me
0:29
I'm just 12 2019 what so it
sounds like
0:37
you said where did I say May 12
2025 8
0:43
12 2019 I didn't say Sunday
here's a
0:47
problem I can't even hear
myself today
0:50
what huh yeah I've got so many
uh so
0:54
many complaints about the
feedback from
0:58
my headphones to the microphone
which is
1:00
because I can't wear my hearing
aids
1:02
with the headphones that
doesn't work at
1:05
all just putting the audio
directly into
1:10
the hearing aids delivers a an
ever so
1:14
slight delay which is too
annoying
1:16
because it has to go through
bluetooth
1:17
and all kinds of other crap
that's
1:20
interesting
1:20
yes it's doable but it's slight
and I
1:24
still like the the way like
immediate
1:26
and I like the weight of the
cans on my
1:28
head you know but I choose
between
1:33
keeping it at 11 because I have
an you
1:35
know I have a the output of the
of the
1:38
mixing system goes into a
separate
1:41
headphone amp just to Jack
that's not
1:43
enough for my deafness but then
I'd have
1:45
to tape the the headphones to
my head
1:48
with no masking tape so it
could I think
1:51
could leak so I just decided to
turn it
1:53
down
1:54
so I don't know what I said
honestly
1:56
okay
1:57
yeah but hopefully there'll be
less
1:59
feedback and that will annoy
people less
2:02
I never heard it what we're
just gonna
2:07
keep this going you never heard
what the
2:08
feedback cards it's constant
it's gotten
2:10
much worse since I've really
been using
2:13
the hearing aids a lot and then
when I
2:15
take them out and I put the
headphones
2:16
on it's like but I don't know
what it
2:19
can't hear sure
2:21
yeah but I just a number of
people
2:24
noticed that so thank you thank
you
2:25
thank you so we'll see how we
do yeah
2:31
it's true
2:35
well let's see we start off
with it you
2:37
know everybody's family out
there yeah
2:43
happy Mother's Day all the moms
that's
2:46
right we get a poor response to
the
2:48
newsletter and the Mother's Day
2:49
promotion one of our producers
sent in a
2:53
note and said it's obvious why
this
2:55
happens because unlike you who
have no
2:58
moms and think that everyone
else hates
2:59
their mom for some reason
people are
3:03
sending their money to their
moms as
3:04
gifts instead of to the show I
think
3:10
it's possible people are doing
that
3:12
although I don't know what
could be
3:14
better than a shout out on the
best
3:16
podcast in the universe for Mom
ok
3:18
flowers are nice too but you
know this
3:21
will be around in some form
long after
3:23
we're all ours die as I'm
reliably
3:26
informed so yes so happy
Mother's Day we
3:31
do have some people who want to
thank
3:32
their mom so we'll be doing
that in our
3:34
donation segments but you know
one of
3:38
the the highlights of my
television year
3:40
yeah then I always look forward
to
3:43
watching is the European Song
Contest
3:46
the Eurovision Song Contest I
should say
3:49
you you talk about this thing
because
3:51
I'm always excited about it
like the
3:53
songs I like how all these
countries
3:55
compete has nothing to do with
Europe
3:56
it's the Eurovision so you know
Israel
3:58
won last year so this year
4:00
well whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
whoa whoa
4:03
whoa whoa whoa it's just not in
Europe
4:08
it's the Eurovision we do this
every
4:11
year to you
4:13
it's eurovision has nothing to
do with
4:15
the EU or europe europe oh okay
just
4:18
it's just it's like one-hour
cleaners
4:24
take two days yes just the
names just a
4:27
name just a name exactly you're
a vision
4:30
israel won last year you'll
remember was
4:34
kind of a funky they they tend
to have
4:35
some funky acts and and they
they swept
4:39
everything and so now the
contest which
4:42
i think is the final is next
week this
4:44
weekend we have a semi-finals
all very
4:47
exciting but the palestinians
are now
4:51
calling for a boycott of course
and
4:54
fight over your hummus all the
time and
4:56
now we got to fight over songs
in the
4:58
eurovision song contest this
this will
5:01
not stand that the palestinians
come
5:03
calling for a boycott that
that's gonna
5:08
close it close it but there's a
lot of
5:12
sympathy with with the
palestinian
5:15
plight which i discovered there
is no
5:16
country named Palestine yeah
yeah yeah
5:20
and once you start looking into
it
5:22
that was a good documentary I
saw I was
5:24
interested in yeah the two-state
5:26
solution
5:27
you know the two-state solution
was that
5:29
was the original idea is set
forth by I
5:32
think it was still League of
Nations
5:34
that was that was the
resolution this is
5:37
me a to stay in place and it
never
5:39
played out kind of
5:43
so here we go then we have the
artists
5:46
calling for you buy them some
uh some I
5:50
mean it like PBS for example
some who
5:53
believe they're you're in
Europe mm-hmm
5:55
but they never play this this
whole
5:58
event in the US at all nobody
cares you
6:01
know there is one channel that
carries
6:02
it it's and and the thing about
the
6:06
Eurovision Song Contest
certainly in the
6:09
Netherlands but above all in
the United
6:11
Kingdom who I don't think
they've won
6:13
since brotherhood of man did
kisses for
6:16
me wait which this when I was
eight or
6:20
nine they'd have unfortunately
passed
6:23
away but Sir Terry Wogan who
was a
6:24
famous BBC Radio 2 presenter
yeah he
6:28
would do the voice-over and he
would
6:30
just sit there probably a
little bit
6:33
inebriated if not sloshed drunk
and just
6:36
make fun of everybody because
the Brits
6:38
always knew that never ever get
in the
6:40
final they never win and and so
now in
6:44
the emails be worth watching
well it was
6:46
and now in the US we have what
is the
6:48
name of the channel that
Univision no
6:52
it's not Univision it's
something you
6:53
have to know it's a it's a real
walk I'm
6:58
sure it's on the Pluto TV no
it'll be on
7:03
it's something with a T but
they get two
7:06
gay guys to sit there and
comment on
7:08
everything which is perfect you
know
7:10
campy can't be gay guys like
what Cooper
7:13
and Anderson Cooper and
what's-his-face
7:16
Andy Cohen Andy Cohen always
tried to do
7:20
on New Year's Eve on CNN only
these guys
7:23
pull it off Court TV
7:26
I think it's logo that's where
it is
7:29
logo logo broadcasted Iceland
has a wah
7:35
and will like heavy metal kind
of grunge
7:38
crazy ass with all the
frightening video
7:41
clip it's not your you know
your your
7:44
syrup syrupy yeah all you need
to do is
7:47
just put Katy Perry on the
judges podium
7:50
and then you'll have it may
they be
7:52
she'll carry it yeah but see
now this is
7:55
the beauty of the Eurovision
song
7:56
contest is there's a each
country has
7:59
its own professional judges and
they
8:01
vote and they're not allowed to
vote on
8:02
their own country but then you
have the
8:04
the the text vote and you know
and you
8:08
see all the politics coming
into play
8:09
you know adjacent countries who
will
8:12
vote for each other you know if
they
8:14
don't like that country then
you know
8:15
everyone hates Russia so they
don't vote
8:17
for them except for the
countries that
8:19
do love Russia so it's just
it's a
8:21
wonderful evening
8:22
apparently logo stop doing it
damn it
8:28
it's ridiculous I do think it
could be
8:31
when you mentioned Terry Wogan
just rent
8:34
ragging on it watch that you
and I could
8:38
do this actually we could do
make it
8:41
Ragan as much as anybody but we
could do
8:43
a good job I think it would be
fun to
8:45
have you just being like what
is this
8:49
[Music]
8:50
country all right well see if
anyone is
8:59
carrying it next year should be
a big
9:01
event maybe look this is our
exit
9:04
strategy let me see if we lay
about this
9:11
let me see if we can get a feed
that
9:14
everyone will be watching a
eagle feed a
9:16
legal feed and then and then
we'll just
9:18
pop on our stream and and we'll
just
9:20
provide commentary you can sit
on the
9:22
couch while you do it now we
got to do
9:25
it on video it has to be video
we can't
9:29
can't we just provide it oh now
I see
9:31
what you're saying yeah it has
to be
9:33
synched with the video but we
don't have
9:34
to be on camera
9:40
space science 3000 with the two
of our
9:43
shadows in front you know
silhouettes of
9:47
our heads and maybe a third
head I think
9:50
that's complicating and already
9:52
well-thought-out format just do
the
9:54
voice-over you don't need to do
anything
9:56
else how did whoa good do it he
just
9:58
voiceover he was just in the
background
9:59
he was never never I don't have
a video
10:01
feed yeah this is good a video
feed and
10:03
then you and I will just rag on
it
10:05
complicate it later wait a
minute wait a
10:07
minute
10:08
I think this is
10:10
I think this is it this weekend
that's
10:12
that's the wedding weekend and
well so
10:19
either that or we can sit in my
studio
10:21
and do it live together
10:24
yeah means a little wedding
maybe not
10:26
maybe not all right well I've
determined
10:30
there is no news in America oh
I got
10:33
plenty of really yeah let me
guess
10:37
barber let go something like
that yeah
10:41
the news you caught I didn't
understand
10:45
it where you know you said when
you I'll
10:46
try to try it again
10:48
barber no no I only have one
actually
10:51
from that whole thing okay even
though I
10:53
promised clips I got nothing I
got the
10:55
one that is kind of interesting
probably
10:57
this okay I'm gonna flip it
would play
11:00
that then it's a go Mart on the
cou on
11:03
the Nadler committee oh he
calls it a
11:05
coup yeah nice and now this
committee
11:08
Majority is on the wrong side
of a very
11:13
important historic time we've
never had
11:18
the intelligence community the
FBI
11:23
people at the top of the DOJ
abusing
11:28
their powers to create a case
against a
11:33
president where there was none
where
11:37
assets were actually used to
try to set
11:40
up members of the Trump
campaign when
11:44
there was no case to try to
create a
11:47
case we ought to be all over
that we
11:50
ought to be demanding answers
from the
11:52
FISA judge or judges who were
either a
11:58
contempt to have fraud
committed against
12:02
their courts or or complicit
maybe it
12:07
was Peter Struck's buddy that
he bragged
12:09
about in his text that was
going to be
12:12
the FISA judge that signed
warrants
12:16
where there was no probable
cause of
12:19
anything
12:21
this was an attempted coup and
history
12:24
is bringing that into focus
more and
12:28
more clearly yeah this is very
dumb idea
12:31
to call this a coup now because
it's not
12:34
the definition of a coup
involves the
12:37
military even an attempted coup
it the
12:39
debt the textbook definition
involves
12:41
military I don't think it does
oh okay
12:45
do we need to okay let's take a
look I
12:53
can of course be wrong because
after all
12:55
I'm just a VJ it's a you coach
could be
12:58
wrong cuz you're deaf but it
literally
13:04
is like that of it okay let's
see book
13:05
of knowledge what are we have
here cou
13:07
sudden violent an illegal
seizure of
13:10
power from government so it
needs to be
13:13
sudden violent military
mentioned the
13:18
true but it has to have best to
be
13:20
violence so there was no cool
look up
13:23
soft soft well I think the coup
is still
13:28
ongoing if you want to take it
in my
13:29
literal sense with the military
13:31
Bloomberg did an interview with
the
13:33
general Kelly I have no idea
why he
13:37
feels he should be talking at
all but
13:39
okay and specially the guy used
to be
13:41
chief of staff yeah Bloomberg
doing
13:46
people do we have running the
mill this
13:48
what happens and you don't have
like a
13:49
major war and all it kind of
lousy
13:51
players move to the top so just
happened
13:55
in World War two where you had
all these
13:56
boneheads running everything
like that
13:58
the head of the Navy and the
second net
14:01
nav second the rest of them are
all let
14:04
the ship after ship was being
knocked
14:06
out on the East Coast by German
u-boats
14:08
oh no no there was an accident
it was
14:11
just ridiculous to watch these
these
14:13
these incompetence run things
until they
14:16
finally got thrown out so they
get
14:18
somebody so you'd win the damn
thing I
14:19
thought Kelly he was revered
within the
14:23
armed services and that
couldn't he says
14:26
and he was indeed chief of staff
14:28
severity shouldn't be out
yakking away
14:30
about his like about his
experiences
14:33
boss was still in office
14:34
well worries seems
irresponsible worse I
14:36
think he's propagating a coup
by talking
14:39
about what needs to happen with
the
14:41
president's family the team we
became as
14:43
a White House staff built on
what Reince
14:47
Priebus group my predecessor
and a great
14:49
guy built on what he was tied
to and for
14:52
that 18 months we staffed the
president
14:54
very effective was it
complicated to
14:55
have the president's family in
the
14:57
government at the time they're
there
15:00
there were very an influence
that has to
15:03
be has to be dealt with this
clip due to
15:13
the head right there well and he
15:15
actually says he's going to
qualify that
15:18
which I thought awaiting are
you're
15:19
gonna backpedal on this but now
it has
15:21
to be brick has to be dealt
with and
15:24
today if you were I don't mean
book I by
15:27
no means I need mrs. Trump
first ladies
15:29
a wonderful person like kill
them or
15:35
anything you know no he meant
kill them
15:38
but Melania is okay she can
stay she's
15:40
good yeah you need it firstly I
thought
15:45
that was just that was pretty
were they
15:47
you got to be dealt with I mean
is the
15:50
if Trump could trust these guys
like
15:52
Rance Priebus who was the
leaker you
15:58
need a great guy according to
Kelly
16:00
okay look dive should not be
out as I
16:05
said there's no news out
16:07
although i did i did pick up an
16:09
interesting clip from a podcast
this is
16:14
oh yeah this is a member
sebastian Gorka
16:20
i thought he was gone because i
guess
16:24
you got I remember he left the
16:26
administration and was like
dangerous
16:29
yeah I'd what was it conflict
was that
16:30
why he left there was some
conflict it
16:33
was his turn and they were rake
them
16:34
over the coals for be and yeah
of course
16:36
obviously he's a white
supremacist from
16:38
support Nazi quadroon obviously
we all
16:41
know there's anyone who hangs
out with
16:42
Trump's got to be a Nazi
16:45
I'm so here's a podcast and he
had I
16:48
think it's Victoria tune sing
quite sure
16:51
what she does and my favorite
digenova
16:54
Joe digenova who you know has
has all
16:57
this great stuff taken out kind
of a
17:01
turn for the best on this show
he has
17:03
and wishes I want to say this
is funny
17:06
because at least six months ago
I had a
17:08
bunch of DeGeneres stuff and a
lot of
17:09
it's yeah I didn't like it and
I didn't
17:11
like it at the time I'm sure or
not now
17:14
I actually cut most of I didn't
use a
17:16
lot of it because he's too
long-winded
17:19
but he's really great when it
comes to
17:22
coming up with crazy ideas that
are
17:24
never gonna come to fruition
about
17:26
what's gonna happen well this
is an
17:28
interesting one because it
again it's
17:30
about Papadopoulos and how they
were
17:31
trying to set Papadopoulos up
and as you
17:35
and I both know having traveled
17:36
internationally there's a
limitation on
17:38
how much cash you couldn't take
into the
17:41
country or bring into the
country which
17:43
ran to ten thousand dollars and
that's
17:45
this it's an inlet unless you
declare it
17:48
you know that's okay but it's a
huge
17:50
pain in the butt to declare it
and why
17:52
didn't he more than ten grand
in cash to
17:54
travel anyway but they tried to
use this
17:57
on Papadopoulos remember this
is kind of
18:00
the the dumbest guy who has the
the hot
18:03
italian lawyer wife who's stuck
with him
18:07
through all of this spice law
business
18:09
so i don't know about their
relationship
18:11
but they see they seem pretty
good
18:13
together and I guess she helped
him out
18:15
of a potentially nasty
situation you
18:18
have an incredible story
Victoria about
18:20
how this man I wish I was
Sebastian
18:22
Galka I could just talk like
this yeah
18:25
the Charlotte you have yes do
tell me
18:37
Sebastian can you ask the
question you
18:39
have an incredible story
Victoria about
18:42
how this man if you like that
bottom and
18:44
he's got a Victoria
18:45
he's got it he's got something
going on
18:47
he's got some process and you
have an
18:49
incredible story Victoria about
how this
18:52
man who was targeted by our
intelligence
18:54
communities oh they try to
sting right
18:57
what happened to George
papadopolis
18:59
after he was put on the Trump
campaign
19:02
as a foreign policy adviser
unpaid I
19:04
mean it's very informal he only
met the
19:06
president one time in a meeting
with a
19:07
bunch of people he was
vacationing with
19:10
us and fiancee in Greece and
this guy
19:12
comes and ties starts knocking
at his
19:14
door basically to say hey I
really want
19:16
to deal with you you're now very
19:18
important and so well you just
come this
19:26
isn't Camille Paglia is no no
it's a
19:28
Victoria tunze Oh
19:33
going with milieu just to point
it out
19:35
okay this is the milieu of the
lesbian
19:38
libertarian oh well let's take
a look at
19:42
her Paglia does constantly
besides
19:46
having that exact same clipped
speech
19:48
she ll ask you know in the
middle of
19:52
things
19:55
no wonder Victoria and tun
Singh is a
19:59
lawyer and partner with her
husband Joe
20:01
digenova
20:04
husband and wife team here I
didn't know
20:07
that let me see where she comes
from
20:10
so she glia but well but she
still could
20:12
be a lesbian yeah could be
20:15
that was your urine that
doesn't lesbian
20:17
libertarian mil you mean you
might be in
20:21
the middle you but you ought to
be a
20:22
lesbian right right right okay
well
20:24
let's continue a commentary
starts
20:26
knocking at his door basically
to say
20:28
hey I really want to deal with
you
20:29
you're now very important and
so well
20:32
you just come to Israel and
talk to me
20:33
about making a deal why can't
you talk
20:36
now well no you need to know
sir go to
20:37
your spiel the guy takes him to
his
20:39
hotel room and there on the bed
is ten
20:41
thousand dollars in cash in a
suitcase
20:43
ten thousand dollars so I'll
make it
20:47
short is very smart and says
leave it
20:53
here they left it in Greece
with his
20:54
lawyer he flew back to Dulles
and the
20:57
second he landed the F
20:59
be i surrounded him and started
21:01
searching everything that he
had and in
21:03
fact they already had his
baggage from
21:05
the plane he couldn't believe
this
21:07
baggage it was a complete setup
course
21:10
he didn't have there was no
tent there
21:12
was no $10,000 but they knew
that he
21:14
hadn't declared it when he
entered the
21:15
night so he had to clean it so
we're
21:17
gonna map it they said we got
him now
21:19
the thumbscrews all squeal and
one FBI
21:22
agent said to him this is what
happens
21:24
when you work for Donald Trump
I believe
21:30
had to be true that's true yeah
so that
21:34
was a smart move by the way I'd
be like
21:36
ten grand man cheap ass the
hookers man
21:44
don't you how this works is
inflation to
21:48
write some dumb report so
that's the
21:51
only kind of interesting news
in the any
21:53
collusion files that I've found
what I
21:55
did find rather fun is I have a
little
21:58
flashback do you remember Eric
Holder do
22:01
we remember who he is who he
was you
22:03
nuts of course we do he's the
fast and
22:06
furious guy who's got called up
for
22:08
contempt of Congress yes he was
held in
22:11
contempt that's correct
22:12
Eric Holder was the Attorney
General
22:14
held in contempt I think it
took a while
22:17
before they actually voted on
holding
22:19
him in contempt of Congress
make much
22:21
difference because the local
DEA at the
22:24
time who has to do if there's
gonna be
22:26
any any real legal action he
was a
22:30
staunch Obama supporter he
wasn't gonna
22:33
go anywhere with it yeah there
was a
22:35
couple other things besides the
22:36
gun-running which was known as
fast and
22:38
furious there was a arresting
22:40
journalists spying on
journalists we
22:44
have such short memories and
the m5m
22:46
even shorter doesn't seem to
recall that
22:48
but I do have a couple of sound
bites
22:51
little kampala if you will of
the
22:54
mainstream back when we are
talking
22:56
about contempt of Congress of an
22:58
attorney general except this
was the
23:01
Obama Attorney General given
what we
23:03
know about the Republican Party
and the
23:05
way the House of Representatives
23:06
conducts itself when run by
Republicans
23:08
and with a Democrat in the
White House
23:10
it shouldn't real
23:11
countess news when a House
committee
23:12
finds the Democratic Attorney
General in
23:15
contempt of Congress every
single
23:16
Republican voted to hold the
Attorney
23:18
General in contempt over this
crazy
23:20
conspiracy theory tell the
Republicans
23:23
to stop this witch hunt now
she's right
23:26
why go ahead with a contempt
vote look
23:28
there are certain internal
documents
23:30
that are not Congress's
business-y it
23:33
just looks like more of our
broken
23:35
politics and vicious fights now
out in
23:38
the open a party in the
Congress that
23:40
does just about nothing to
create jobs
23:41
or to help people without jobs
decide
23:43
the best way to do their job is
to
23:46
shower the Obama administration
with
23:47
subpoenas see if you are a
person who
23:49
watches Fox News all day it is
possible
23:51
that you have been marinating
in this
23:52
conspiracy theory for long
enough now
23:54
that this seems feasible
stop-and-frisk
23:58
at the highest level grant the
Attorney
24:00
General get in the emptiest
pockets it
24:02
looks like stop-and-frisk does
it let me
24:03
finish with my personal views
of the
24:05
stop and frisk thing and I
don't mean to
24:07
use this term too much but it's
almost
24:08
like a stop and frisk for a lot
of
24:10
people this is Republican versus
24:11
Democrat and they say this is
just
24:13
theater it amounts to nothing
it is a
24:15
distraction it is politics writ
large in
24:19
in Washington according to most
people
24:21
this is really much more to be
filed in
24:23
the category of politics than
law this
24:26
is contempt kabuki this is a
classic
24:28
case in Washington of where you
stand as
24:30
a matter of where you sit when
the
24:31
Republicans have the white
house they
24:32
love executive privilege
24:34
I like contempt kabuki I like
yeah I
24:38
like a contempt kabuki - there
was
24:41
something else in there liked
it was of
24:44
course my point obviously is
people this
24:47
is the same shit just different
team
24:50
it's wrestling yeah WWE yeah
without the
24:55
without the cool suits and the
guy with
24:59
the with the guys you got the
Gohmert
25:06
Beto could be one of the
Mexican terror
25:08
twins way that's not I'm
confusing them
25:11
sure I don't know much about
wrestling
25:12
yeah it's exactly the same
exactly the
25:16
same stuff now it's just the
other
25:18
parties yelling the same Fox
News is now
25:20
saying what these guys were
saying
25:22
although Fox News man
25:23
something's he's very odd with
them they
25:27
are going well they're going
off Messner
25:28
style the going off message
they're
25:32
going to lose your audience
doing this
25:33
by the way is to present a
concise it's
25:39
like to watch it shields and
Brooks yeah
25:42
yeah I mean shields and Brooks
they're
25:44
supposed to be what you know
supposed to
25:45
give us two sides of an
argument no no
25:47
they're both in total agreement
and that
25:48
new who wants to watch them I
mean I do
25:50
have an effect I got a good
example this
25:53
is a summary of the latest
shields
25:55
Brooks and shields summaries on
PBS
25:58
subpoenas for the president's
son
26:00
subpoenas for the Attorney
General what
26:04
do we make of all this well I
mean I
26:06
think it's the House Banking
Committee
26:09
across the board and and now
led by a
26:14
that I just think duty that in
Iran in
26:21
Venezuela I mean just but this
and for
26:26
the this isn't the system wasn't
26:28
intended for this I mean you
know it's a
26:30
complete breakdown of the
checks and
26:31
balances system I smells
Dvorak's razor
26:33
blade in this this clip that's
the way
26:37
it goes no he talks like that
26:38
no don't believe it I have a
different
26:43
example of Fox News just I
don't know
26:46
this is specifically Tucker
Carlson and
26:48
I think he may I don't know he's
26:50
compromised but not not in the
way you
26:52
would think he had Andrew yang
on now
26:57
Andrew yang is is we're
focusing on him
26:59
because we get complaints that
we don't
27:02
that no one focuses on we love
no money
27:06
I mean I'm surprised he gets as
much
27:08
airtime as he does where a guy
with no
27:10
money
27:10
well I we love his PowerPoint
idea the
27:13
State of the Union on
PowerPoint and
27:15
that's that's his slogan for
this year
27:17
PowerPoint PowerPoint
27:20
he is the man who on Joe Rogan
was
27:23
talking about the universal
basic income
27:25
being the way to go and now he
has a new
27:27
gambit which he rolled out on
Tucker
27:31
Carlson I was well I wasn't
surprising
27:34
to hear this from a Democratic
primary
27:37
can at
27:38
it was surprising to hear
Tucker Carlson
27:40
all in on these this idea I have
27:43
standing in this particular
area having
27:46
lived in multiple countries
with this
27:48
particular situation and I
thought it
27:50
was interesting that Fox again
is moving
27:53
away from their their core
message I
27:55
don't know if a lot of people
in America
27:56
understand what this is really
about or
27:58
what it really means but the
way it's
28:00
presented is I'm curious at best
28:03
yeah Amazon's the most
egregious example
28:05
where they're now soaking up
twenty
28:06
billion dollars in business and
causing
28:08
30% of American malls and
stores to
28:10
close and taxpayers are seeing
zero in
28:12
return so if you look at what
other
28:14
advanced economies have done
they
28:16
figured this out they've said
look we
28:18
need to have a mechanism in
place so
28:19
that Amazon is gonna pay its
fair share
28:21
along with Netflix and Delton
these
28:24
other companies that are paying
zero in
28:25
taxes so what they've done is
they broke
28:27
can you guess
28:27
can you guess government
regulate Amazon
28:33
no it's better well in a way
yeah
28:35
actually yes in a way I've
adopted a
28:37
value-added tax where then stay
with it
28:43
tiny slice of every Amazon sale
every
28:45
Google search and on and on and
it's
28:47
very very hard for companies
like Amazon
28:49
to gain their way out of
actually gonna
28:50
roll that back per second
because he
28:52
literally says here you know
Delton
28:56
these other companies that are
paying
28:57
zero in taxes what they've done
is
28:58
they've adopted a value-added
tax where
29:01
then the American people would
get a
29:03
tiny slice of every Amazon sale
every no
29:06
this is I'm gonna play the
whole clip
29:13
but a value-added tax he's
saying oh the
29:17
American people will get a
piece of that
29:18
yeah after you pay all of it so
here's
29:22
this brilliant idea I say I'm
gonna pay
29:24
this value-added tax and I'll
get 10% of
29:27
it back in services that sounds
like a
29:29
great deal
29:30
yeah no yeah but to get a dime
back
29:34
Google search and on and on and
it's
29:36
very very hard for companies
like Amazon
29:37
to game their way out of a
value-added
29:39
tax system so why don't we have
that
29:43
it's a great question
29:48
just listen to it for a sec we
could
29:51
stop it every ten second
company is like
29:53
Amazon to game their way out of
a
29:55
value-added tax system so so
why don't
29:58
we have that it's a great
question I
30:00
mean people have been
advocating for is
30:03
time and my campaign is
advocating and
30:06
championing it right now
because we we
30:08
need to wise up to the fact that
30:10
companies like Amazon are very
smart and
30:12
moving their earnings through
places
30:14
like Ireland where the American
taxpayer
30:16
will see none of it whereas the
30:17
value-added tax will make it
impossible
30:19
for them to sell to us without
paying
30:22
into our society their fair
share as if
30:25
they're going to be paying that
fair
30:26
share this is so great the way
he's
30:28
explaining it and Tucker buys
it so why
30:31
are you the only candidate who's
30:33
thinking through what to do
about this
30:36
yeah well we already answered
that
30:38
question I think it's kind of
weird I
30:40
think it's weird again all you
have to
30:42
do is look around the world and
say
30:43
other countries other advanced
economies
30:45
have figured this out we're the
only
30:47
advanced economy that does not
have a
30:48
value-added tax in place and we
need to
30:52
make sure that the American
people are
30:53
actually seeing some of the
gains from
30:55
the incredible innovation and
value that
30:57
companies like Amazon and
Salesforce and
31:00
Netflix all of whom paid zero
in taxes
31:02
last year are getting away with
really
31:05
and they're doing their job
which is to
31:07
pay as little in taxes as
possible I
31:08
have to do our job which is to
make its
31:10
the American people see our
fair share
31:12
so does that I mean just argue
the other
31:15
side for a second with that
increase and
31:19
presumably would increase the
cost to
31:20
American consumers of goods
right yes
31:22
well in some instances in some
cases the
31:25
companies will find cost
efficiencies or
31:27
a part of it and that's one
reason why
31:29
my campaign wants to take that
money
31:32
that we're getting from the
value-added
31:33
tax would turn at the American
people in
31:35
the form of a dividend because
that's
31:37
the most direct way that we can
actually
31:39
have the American people
benefit the
31:41
fear is that even if we do end
up
31:44
increasing the tax rate on some
of these
31:46
companies
31:46
people won't benefit from that
person
31:51
running for president and I
sound a
31:53
great idea to me I appreciate
it's a
31:54
great idea there you go
31:56
great idea listen liten mr.
Karlson
32:00
about the value-added tax which
i lived
32:03
under in the Netherlands and
Belgium and
32:06
the United Kingdom the tact the
32:09
value-added tax in the
Netherlands when
32:11
I was there I think it's still
easier 20
32:12
or 21 percent and you pay for
that much
32:16
off the top yeah we thing you
buy and
32:19
it's an added tax so it's not
building
32:22
yeah get the word added in
there that's
32:24
not the thing
32:25
Tucker sir said well in other
words more
32:28
taxes yes and and you consumer
you pay
32:31
for it and here's the problem
with the
32:33
value-added tax if you add that
if you
32:36
start down that road it'll be ok
32:39
everybody
32:40
great idea of 5% value-added
tax and
32:44
somehow just like the carbon
tax and
32:46
canden Avia it'll come back to
you
32:48
magically alright so we're
paying that
32:50
and you know what happens in
two years
32:54
everybody got a shortfall here
we need
32:58
to up that value-added tax just
a bit
33:00
don't worry it's really the
companies
33:02
paying for it don't you worry
about it
33:03
it's all good bad ideas 10%
times 15 I'm
33:07
amazed honey I'm amazed how he
can back
33:10
this there's clearly a right
wing
33:13
authorized now me that Tucker
doesn't
33:16
travel that much he probably
doesn't
33:21
talk about any other countries
he really
33:24
made me go down to Cancun and
that's
33:26
about it
33:27
listen we grew up watching this
guy and
33:29
he was wearing a bow tie so you
don't
33:32
travel anywhere if you wear one
of those
33:33
not unless you're a professor
and you
33:36
know visiting scholar somewhere
I'm a
33:38
publisher yes I've read about
the same
33:43
level as my you know as
Christopher
33:45
Buckley my exit cousin-in-law
whatever
33:48
he was mm-hmm that kind of guy
who's
33:53
going to want to read the
newspaper on
33:56
the on a computer screen yes no
way I
34:00
okay I have an AOL address but
that's
34:02
all I'm just keeping it at that
34:03
Christopher Buckley douche
34:08
so that is the media landscape
it's
34:11
changing rapidly where we have
a guy
34:13
like yang promoting this and
it's a this
34:16
is I was like a great idea
that's again
34:19
it's like soccer now I do want
to point
34:23
out I've had down in my notes I
want to
34:26
make a prediction do still have
a red
34:28
book we haven't looked in the
red book
34:29
in a long time I gave up on it
because I
34:32
can realize I can't read my own
writing
34:33
I think that for people track
of these
34:38
so you just predict what you
want okay I
34:40
believe that football let's
just call it
34:44
instead of soccer football I
think is
34:47
going to be extremely big on US
34:52
television but it'll only will
be
34:55
women's football there's
something about
34:59
this that especially our team
the United
35:01
States team who are all cute
there's
35:04
something about this that is
going
35:06
places that's my prediction I
think
35:10
we'll see with joy women when I
was in
35:12
Croatia a few years back we
were talking
35:16
about this and the grow Asian
said well
35:18
yeah we understand that
football is very
35:21
popular in the United States
but only
35:23
amongst women hmm and women
tears only
35:26
women teams men don't play it
isn't
35:29
isn't our bus and when they
said I'm not
35:31
gonna correct you - no you're
absolutely
35:33
right men do not play soccer as
we call
35:36
it that's only played by women
and
35:39
that's just the way it is in
our country
35:41
it's it's for women only now we
have a
35:44
good really good team though
don't we
35:46
yeah elgu world champs yeah
yeah we have
35:49
great women soccer players well
I want
35:51
to promote them I think I'm
looking at
35:54
the list by the way just to
back up a
35:55
little bit look at the list of
value
35:57
added text and remembering it
starts to
35:59
always starts off like at 5 or
10%
36:00
mm-hmm right now in hunger its
27% jeez
36:05
I thought they harmonized that
to EU
36:06
everyone had to have 2000 no
they're all
36:08
different
36:09
really Norway is 25% 25% 35% I
remember
36:15
back when I had money in an
airplane
36:17
it's like yeah I want new
avionics they
36:19
said ok well it's gonna be I
was like 8
36:21
thousand euros or something
like wow
36:23
that's a lot of money but okay
whoa oh
36:24
oh but there's 21% of
value-added tax
36:27
like what is through on two
thousand two
36:31
thousand euros just for that no
it make
36:34
it drives you nuts
36:40
I'm looking at these other
numbers 25%
36:43
for the far Fargo islands is
everybody's
36:45
this is crazy
36:47
have are no agenda logo on the
on the
36:50
the team uniform that'd be cool
we can
36:55
make it happen I mean this when
you're
36:57
traveling people should notice
when
36:58
you're traveling you should get
your
37:00
receipts where everything you
buy this
37:01
over a few bucks yeah you can
get your
37:03
get to the airport yep you're
37:04
value-added tax deadline and
you get
37:06
your money back
37:07
yeah yes which is not always
convenient
37:12
no it's not always convened and
the
37:14
people who were sitting there
also
37:15
they're mean especially than
with the
37:17
people in France I think I
bought a pair
37:19
of glasses and France because I
broke my
37:21
glasses got a new pair and I
want to
37:23
went to retrieve the v80 and
they just
37:25
they just mean and rude what
you know
37:32
it's crazy okay so now yang is
off of my
37:38
list of anyone even worthwhile
anytime
37:42
anyone brings up the
value-added taxes
37:44
and especially when they throw
the
37:46
bullcrap at you like he did
which is
37:48
just advanced economies yeah
the smart
37:54
ones have it yeah yeah good to
remind
37:59
you that you know that v80 also
gets
38:01
tacked on to medical costs
medical
38:03
procedures well where's the
value I like
38:09
this value it really should be
just
38:13
called an added taxes the dumb
facts so
38:19
here's a thing I picked up for
one of
38:22
the networks that just uh I
kind of a
38:24
rundown you know read they
really do
38:26
want bite into run they think
he can win
38:28
yeah and so here's a classic
run down a
38:32
bite and run down at what's
going on
38:33
with Biden and who's this from
which
38:35
outlet you know I forgot to
write it
38:38
down but there's a zephyr it's
one of
38:41
the Oh an extra part today the
one of
38:48
the network's from the minute
Joe Biden
38:50
sets foot under the campaign
38:52
trail he is the person to beat
the
38:55
question is whether one of
these 19
38:58
other candidates emerges as his
chief
39:01
adversary or whether his biggest
39:03
obstacle will be Joe Biden
himself the
39:06
t-shirt knows a lot about it is
mama
39:08
lived in in Long Island for ten
years or
39:11
so god rest her soul and
although she's
39:16
wait your mom still your mom
still alive
39:19
god bless her soul because he
is a
39:24
household name
39:25
they put one foot in front of
the other
39:27
they keep going
39:29
that's the unbreakable spirit
of the
39:32
people of America and also he
screams a
39:35
much broader set of policy
experiences
39:39
to the table than really any
other
39:41
candidate I believe we have so
botched
39:44
this policy sohbats the
opportunities to
39:48
move on the sandanista
government the
39:52
SNL the scandal we need not
tell anyone
39:56
is the biggest white-collar
ripoff in
39:59
this nation's history judge if
I look
40:01
only at what you've said and
written as
40:03
used to happen in the past I
would have
40:05
to vote no for all the respect
that he
40:07
is given as the elder statesman
if you
40:10
look back at Joe Biden's
previous races
40:13
his 1988 bid flamed out in the
middle of
40:17
a plagiarism scandal in 2008 he
won
40:21
exactly four percent of the
vote in the
40:25
Iowa caucuses there is a lack
of message
40:29
discipline
40:35
I remember in the 2008 campaign
after
40:40
the Obama team put him on the
ticket at
40:43
a fundraiser late in the
campaign he
40:46
went so far as to
apocalyptically almost
40:50
predict there would be a major
40:52
international crisis this was
one of
40:55
those moments tailor-made for a
Saturday
40:58
Night Live parody if you take
away
41:03
nothing else from what I say
here today
41:05
or indeed in this entire
campaign
41:06
remember this if Barack Obama
is elected
41:10
we will have a crisis yeah I'll
give joe
41:16
biden credit for one thing he
dragged
41:20
Hillary Clinton and Barack
Obama into a
41:26
same-sex marriage do you
remember that
41:29
no yes it was Obama was going
to come
41:33
out and announce the policy on
maybe a
41:36
Monday or Tuesday and then on
some some
41:38
interview but it was it was a
problem
41:42
because you know he was
basically the
41:43
guy that done an interview and
left us
41:45
with Robin I think from Good
Morning
41:47
America Robins matter it was he
said ah
41:50
no I think same-sex marriage
should
41:52
should be okay he just went all
in on it
41:54
which we didn't and this was
shocking at
41:56
the time no one had heard of
what are
41:57
you could this is from the
White House
41:59
and then oh and the Obama and
Hillary
42:02
they immediately had to kind of
jump on
42:03
and said oh yes yes yes we've
changed
42:05
our views on this and that was
Joe Biden
42:06
who dragged them into that by
basically
42:09
jumping into the announcement
which he
42:12
wasn't even supposed to do in
the first
42:13
place yeah he does a lot of
that yeah I
42:17
consider that bumbling well he
plays
42:20
that office bumbling I think
he's a lot
42:22
smarter than we might give him
credit
42:23
for in that regard well that's
the
42:25
possibility but gates the guy
who was
42:27
used to be in the CIA and
whatever and
42:30
he was in the various staffs of
the
42:33
Obama administration who wrote
this book
42:37
if you recall pretty much about
the
42:41
Obama administration said
everything
42:42
Biden did was just um
everything he did
42:44
was wrong well the only reason
why he's
42:49
being pegged up on top right
now is
42:51
because he's got the money yeah
when you
42:53
raised $700,000 in one night
42:55
then the news media is like hi
Joe how
42:58
you doing
42:59
let's do another interview so
you can
43:01
buy some ads it's their money
they see
43:04
that as their money who's got
the money
43:06
the Biden's grabs our money
let's go get
43:08
that money and then they go and
you know
43:10
Monday no wait Monday uh yes
Monday
43:14
night watch what happens with
man are
43:17
you okay dabbe having a lozenge
okay
43:21
when Beto is going to
reintroduce
43:24
himself I am reading from The
Associated
43:27
Press
43:28
O'Rourke plans to step up his
national
43:30
media appearances after
skipping most of
43:32
that kind of exposure in recent
months
43:34
he is scheduled to appear on
MSNBC's
43:37
Rachel Maddow show on Monday
night and
43:39
ABC's The View the next day
43:42
O'Rourke acknowledges he
struggled to
43:44
find his presidential campaign
footing
43:46
sounds like he struggled to
find a good
43:48
Booker I think in part I was
just trying
43:51
to keep up when I first started
out he
43:53
said after addressing about 40
people at
43:55
a recent house party in Newton
Iowa I
43:57
really feel like I found my
rhythm and
43:59
my pace I just feel comfortable
I feel
44:01
like this is what I'm supposed
to be
44:02
doing it's my calling
44:07
umberto so we'll see and he's
lost so
44:12
much momentum in and when you
hear him
44:14
he's dumb it's just dumb well
he also
44:18
has the tries to sound like
Obama with
44:20
that pacing and his waving
sounds like
44:23
he's doing it Obama but you
know all you
44:26
hear him say is we've got to do
you know
44:28
comprehensive this reform that
impeach
44:31
the president at least yeah at
least
44:33
yang is saying I'm gonna do
value I
44:35
detach go to universal basic
income he's
44:37
not saying oh we should know
he's at
44:39
least he's saying something
Elizabeth
44:41
Warren still the favorite
amongst the
44:43
graduating class we just got
one back
44:45
here
44:47
done with the with four years in
44:49
Arkansas liking what Elizabeth
Warren
44:52
has to say feels somewhat
cheated scam
44:54
by the system everyone's
talking about
44:57
Liz hey you know what we don't
care
45:00
about anything just take this
debt off
45:02
of my books she's got a real
shot with
45:05
that she's got she's got that
and but
45:08
the promise she's got something
she's
45:10
got stuff like this - she has
too much
45:12
she's creating problems for
herself with
45:14
wood i play my warren clip a
bed comes
45:17
just weeks after Massachusetts
Senator
45:20
and 2020 hopeful Elizabeth
Warren
45:22
unveiled a plan to break up
tech giants
45:24
including Facebook Google and
Amazon oh
45:27
yes she has no focus
45:28
this is she's an idiot she has
no focus
45:31
she had she has something going
with
45:33
these kids who are all of
voting age
45:34
they probably won't vote you
know these
45:37
were the the beto voters who
didn't
45:39
really come out in Texas
45:40
yeah for sure too much work
yeah but if
45:46
you've got 30 or $40,000 in in
student
45:50
loan debt I think I can go to
the poll
45:53
and vote for you is maybe but I
got
45:56
Facebook no no I disagree
45:59
these kids are also moving away
from
46:01
Facebook they're moving away
from social
46:03
media now they had you know
they they
46:05
actually have to do they're
getting dogs
46:07
my dog won't let me go the idea
of
46:13
breaking up the tech Jones
besides being
46:15
scatterbrained it's like wait a
minute
46:18
these are the guys who got all
the money
46:20
and you're gonna you know so
you're
46:22
gonna turn on you're gonna bust
up
46:24
Amazon's Jeff Bezos owns the
Walton in
46:27
post hello hello
46:29
knock-knock you well I'm
against I'm
46:32
against all of this I'm against
all of
46:34
these the break up ideas
because I see
46:36
the internet as a network that
anyone
46:38
can access and anyone can use
whatever
46:41
you know of freely available
protocols
46:44
there are to distribute your
information
46:47
now I don't think necessarily
Facebook
46:50
and Twitter and Instagram are
the
46:52
Internet
46:54
mmm that's what people believe
but it's
46:56
not true it's not it's not it's
just not
46:59
true so let these guys wallow
in their
47:02
own shit it's fine I don't need
to use
47:03
them now but anyone who
participates in
47:07
this in this breakup
conversation is
47:10
giving him too too much
credence it
47:11
doesn't know what the internet
is it's
47:13
like you're looking at the
America
47:15
online version of the Internet
that's
47:17
what you're talking Lizabeth
warned and
47:19
all these other people yeah
they don't
47:22
even know how to turn on a
computer well
47:23
I think that's pretty sure they
can do
47:25
that I'm pretty sure that's
what's going
47:33
on it's that round button
there's a lot
47:39
of different things that are
problematic
47:41
for for people in government
they for
47:44
instance have you been tracking
Bitcoin
47:47
no I don't follow Bitcoin a
closely well
47:51
going back to the I think
November at
47:54
November last year and the
prices
47:56
dropped from around 63 hundred
dollars
47:58
to down to a low of just above
3000
48:01
right and now which I know and
if you
48:04
look today I can look right now
but last
48:07
I checked it was over 7,000 and
if
48:11
you've ever looked at a at a
stock chart
48:13
it looks like the longest bear
bear trap
48:17
I've ever seen in my life yeah
and
48:19
that's actually down a bit now
since 68
48:21
but it was up to what's up as
high as
48:24
almost 7400 which is you know
higher
48:29
than it was when the drop
happened and
48:32
this is causing concern for a
lot of
48:34
people as certainly in in
government
48:37
this is congressman Sherman and
he has a
48:43
he has only one way to go for
this I
48:44
look for colleagues to join
with me and
48:47
introducing a bill to outlaw
48:51
cryptocurrency owner you know
purchases
48:55
by Americans so that we nip
this in the
48:58
bud in part because I love
49:02
nip it in the bud hello 10
years there's
49:07
something to this Bitcoin shit
we should
49:08
nip that in the bud hey let me
write up
49:11
a bill for y'all in part
because not a
49:14
awful lot of our international
power
49:17
comes from the fact that the
dollar is
49:19
the standard unit of
International
49:22
Finance and transactions
clearing
49:26
through the New York Fed is
critical for
49:29
major Oriya oil and other
pressures
49:31
gonna interrupt and then I'll
don't play
49:32
that's a bit again what he's
saying is
49:34
is true although it may sound
very very
49:38
unbelievable to most when you
transact
49:41
money I think even for to go
from let's
49:43
say the Netherlands to Germany
I believe
49:48
it still eventually goes
through the
49:52
Swift clearing cyst or they may
be using
49:54
the full the full European
system but
49:56
the Swift American banking
system has
49:58
fought very long and hard to
make sure
50:00
all money transactions go
through our
50:03
system through the fan system
all of
50:05
them certainly when we're
talking about
50:07
dollar purchases but you know
this guy's
50:11
really just laying it out as to
why this
50:13
is a problem because of you
know what
50:15
interests we have and I think
it greatly
50:18
explained a problem to me to me
it
50:21
sounds like this is exactly why
Bitcoin
50:23
needs to exist of international
finance
50:27
and transactions clearing
through the
50:30
New York Fed is critical for
major Oriya
50:33
oil and other transactions and
it is the
50:36
announced purpose of the
supporters of
50:38
cryptocurrency to take that
power away
50:41
from us to put us in a position
where
50:43
the most significant sanctions
we have
50:45
on Iran for example would become
50:47
irrelevant so whether it is to
50:50
disempower our foreign policy
our tax
50:53
collection enforcement or our
law or
50:56
traditional law enforcement the
purposes
50:59
of cryptocurrency the advantage
it has
51:02
over a sovereign currency is
solely to
51:07
aid in the disempowerment of
the United
51:11
States and the rule of law
51:13
yeah there you go he's right
Bitcoin is
51:16
anti-american
51:17
yeah true I'm all I'm all for
it I have
51:21
to say I'm all for it and I
think it's
51:24
great we should we deserve a
little
51:25
competition on our dollar yeah
we're
51:28
gonna get it from the Chinese
yeah yeah
51:30
we certainly are well that how
are the
51:32
Chinese now do you guys track
that over
51:35
deh unplugged they got their
their
51:37
increased tax tariffs or as the
51:41
importance of already tracking
because
51:42
they lie the Chinese yeah well
what are
51:46
they lying about they lie about
their
51:48
numbers you don't know what the
hell's
51:49
going on with them huh someone
sent me
51:52
this you know for all you can
say about
51:55
him Trump has been extremely
consistent
51:58
throughout the years prior to
his
52:01
presidency with the same
talking points
52:04
going back to Oprah show in the
late 80s
52:06
early 90s the Jiri is
addressing a crowd
52:10
in 2011 that did he was he
running in
52:14
somewhere around that time he
was just
52:15
making noise about Obama wasn't
he 2011
52:18
about because running into your
2000
52:21
right but not 2011 he was just
making
52:24
make a noise just he's always
always
52:27
running he's always promoting
his show
52:29
and running yes so here he is
addressing
52:31
a crowd specifically about tax
in China
52:33
and how to tax China and how to
present
52:35
it very very hard to buy
anything you
52:48
know the one I said what can
you do so
52:54
easy
52:55
[Music]
53:01
[Applause]
53:12
[Music]
53:18
[Applause]
53:21
hmm I guess he chose for the
second way
53:24
of doing it they're responding
poorly I
53:30
understand the Chinese yeah I
don't like
53:34
yeah they don't like to be
intimidated
53:36
but you know what I'm reading
everywhere
53:37
it is okay fine you know you
order this
53:41
stuff and it gets shipped from
Vietnam
53:43
they're just they're just kind
of using
53:46
Vietnam as a p.o box now well I
haven't
53:51
heard this word yes I've I've
read it
53:54
everywhere have you gotten
anything for
53:55
Vietnam I have also received
this is
53:58
what tipped me off to it I used
to buy
54:00
art from both China and Vietnam
mm-hmm
54:03
and different shops that did
all kinds
54:09
of custom and it was just some
fabulous
54:11
artists in those areas
especially
54:13
Vietnam they got a lot of very
artsy if
54:16
you go to visit the country go
holy
54:17
mackerel and I noticed the one
thing I
54:21
noticed the most was that FedEx
and
54:24
whoever else it was had some
deal so it
54:28
was pretty much everything
coming out of
54:30
China was free shipping or it
was a
54:33
dollar mm-hmm and I was always
befuddled
54:37
by this because it made out it
the same
54:38
products out of Vietnam would
cost like
54:41
$30 in shipping minimum and it
would
54:45
seem to me that what how does
China
54:47
doing this deal with FedEx or
whoever it
54:50
was UPS of all of them they're
all given
54:52
China this huge deal or the
Chinese were
54:54
eating the price I don't know
what was
54:55
going on but I thought it was
there's
54:57
some moment of corruption but
we ordered
54:59
sort when we moved in we
ordered a chair
55:04
from West Elm the company West
Elm and
55:07
we've ordered from them before
and as
55:09
with pretty much all furniture
it comes
55:12
from China but this time
because we've
55:16
ordered from them in the past
this time
55:17
it showed up huge box large
print made
55:20
in Vietnam don't think it's
trying to
55:22
made in Vietnam no it doesn't
say made
55:25
in China on the chair itself
but I'm I'm
55:28
pretty contend then I started
looking
55:29
into it I'm seeing they're
either doing
55:32
subsidiary deals with factories
but
55:34
basically using Vietnam as a
p.o box no
55:37
I don't think so I think it was
made in
55:39
Vietnam okay could be I'm just
saying we
55:43
used to get from the same
company who'll
55:45
be shipped from Shenzhen the
Chinese
55:47
have been notorious for like
moving
55:50
their manuals funny
55:51
the Taiwanese move their
manufacturing
55:53
to China the China gets Chinese
got
55:55
swamped in this but no in fact
that
55:57
they've been outsourcing
Chinese China
56:00
has been outsourced to the
Vietnam and
56:01
India okay well that makes
sense then
56:03
and so that I would say I would
say this
56:05
the product will be better
probably will
56:10
yeah they know what they're
doing over
56:11
there are outstanding quality
yes it's a
56:16
very interesting country they
like 98
56:19
their literacy rate in Vietnam
is higher
56:21
than we have it's like 98.5
percent of
56:24
the country's literate huh it's
a very
56:27
interesting place ok onward
yeah I don't
56:36
know if that's doing anything
but it's
56:37
like a party I don't know what
we're
56:38
getting about China what we're
gonna do
56:41
is what we've been doing is cut
them off
56:44
at the pass through at them
everywhere
56:46

countries
56:49

foothold for

57:55
Democracy Now in Washington DC

authorities cut off water and
57:58
electricity to Venezuela's
embassy is
58:01
activists with code pink and
other
58:02
organizations continue
around-the-clock
58:05
occupation in order to prevent a
58:07
takeover of the building by
Venezuela's
58:09
US backed opposition the
activists
58:12
entered the embassy in late
April at the
58:14
invitation of Venezuela's
government
58:15
opposition groups led by Juan
Guido and
58:18
backed by the Trump
administration of
58:20
pledged to take over the
building so far
58:22
police and Secret Service
agents have
58:24
arrested nine activists
including Jerry
58:26
condone a 72 year old Vietnam
War
58:29
veteran and the president of
veterans
58:31
for peace who was violently
tackled and
58:33
pressed to the pavement
Wednesday by
58:34
five officers after he tried to
bring
58:37
food to protesters occupying
the embassy
58:40
now known was left bleeding
from the
58:42
head and needed medical
treatment he's
58:44
been charged with throwing a
missile
58:45
resisting arrest and assaulting
police
58:48
officers as he attempted to get
food
58:50
inside the building hmm did not
report
58:54
in a mainstream it does well of
course
58:55
not I just this just in from
one of our
58:58
lawyers within the value for
value
58:59
network I have been advised and
I can
59:03
confirm that this isn't he's
the real
59:04
deal I've been advised by
clients who
59:06
buy from China as follows
59:08
the manufacturers are moving to
Vietnam
59:11
from China but the p.o box scam
is being
59:14
perpetrated in Malaysia so
that's how
59:18
they're rolling ok Malaysia so
look for
59:21
some problems in Malaysia what
can we
59:22
look and we stir up in Malaysia
because
59:25
that's what it seems to be we
just want
59:27
to thwart the Chinese this is
59:29
Undersecretary of State
59:31
Tom Shannon on NPR and this
first clip
59:36
is about the failed coup I'm
sorry
59:39
flipping in Venezuela how do
the tools
59:42
available to the United States
tools
59:44
compared to the vulnerabilities
up to
59:47
this point the tools have not
been
59:49
sufficient really beginning on
January
59:51
23rd when Juan Guido declared
the
59:53
presidency vacant and declared
himself
59:56
the president under the
Constitution the
59:58
hope at the time was that that
would be
1:00:00
sufficient to flip the military
it did
1:00:02
not work then the opposition
working
1:00:05
with the United States and other
1:00:06
countries decided that focusing
on
1:00:08
humanitarian assistance and
creating a
1:00:11
confrontation at the border
between
1:00:12
Colombia and Venezuela over at
the
1:00:15
delivery of humanitarian
assistance
1:00:16
would create a rebellion within
the
1:00:18
armed forces that did not work
then the
1:00:21
administration decided that
sanctioning
1:00:24
the state-run oil company pet
of essa
1:00:26
and effectively sending a clear
signal
1:00:28
to the Armed Forces that
revenues would
1:00:31
be cut off and their access to
the
1:00:33
Venezuelan gravy train would
end would
1:00:36
convince the military to flip
that did
1:00:39
not work there's also been an
effort to
1:00:41
focus on individual members or
former
1:00:43
members of the military some of
them
1:00:44
have been sanctioned and just
the other
1:00:46
day vice president pence said
the US
1:00:48
would aim to lift sanctions on
an
1:00:50
individual former intelligence
chief I
1:00:52
believe who switched sides is
that
1:00:55
working at all well we'll have
to wait
1:00:56
and see the purpose obviously
is to send
1:00:59
the signal that those members
of the
1:01:01
Armed Forces that choose to
work with
1:01:03
the opposition if they are under
1:01:05
sanctions will have those
sanctions
1:01:07
lifted and those who might be
facing
1:01:09
sanctions would not face them
if they
1:01:12
chose to work with the
opposition we're
1:01:14
gonna have to wait and see how
that's
1:01:15
received what's just amazes me
is to
1:01:18
listen to this guy cavalierly
speak with
1:01:21
an NPR host who easily could
have been
1:01:23
lamenting the Russians meddling
in our
1:01:27
elections listen to this what
tools do
1:01:31
you have well this tool didn't
work and
1:01:33
that tool didn't work what are
you doing
1:01:35
well I'm going to Jack Venezuela
1:01:37
obviously Oh Papa Russia and
China
1:01:39
the Russians have provided
significant
1:01:41
sales of weapons to the
Venezuelan
1:01:43
government
1:01:44
along with purchasing large
quantities
1:01:47
of oil and gas and inserting
themselves
1:01:48
into Venezuela's oil and gas
industry
1:01:51
and then the Chinese of course
also have
1:01:53
deep interests in the oil and
gas sector
1:01:55
is there any way to pry those
foreign
1:01:58
actors away from the Venezuelan
1:02:00
government Maduro government
NPR your
1:02:04
National Public Radio is
participating
1:02:07
in this radical yeah we're
strategizing
1:02:10
how we can fuck the Chinese
we're gonna
1:02:13
have to wait and see I
personally
1:02:16
believe that calling these
governments
1:02:17
out especially the Chinese and
the
1:02:19
Russians was not intelligent
the Chinese
1:02:22
in particular have been looking
to play
1:02:23
a very low key role in this
political
1:02:26
dispute and are more interested
in their
1:02:28
long-term energy interests and
therefore
1:02:30
it's important for the United
States to
1:02:33
make very clear to the Chinese
that the
1:02:34
long-term future of their
relationships
1:02:36
in South America are going to
depend on
1:02:38
China's willingness to help
Venezuela
1:02:41
find a political accommodation
that gets
1:02:43
it through this period of
crisis do you
1:02:44
mean to say it would have been
more
1:02:45
intelligent to quietly approach
the
1:02:47
Chinese and reassure them that
their
1:02:49
energy interests will be
maintained no
1:02:51
matter who is running Venezuela
yes but
1:02:54
also to make clear that
countries who
1:02:57
have China as a number one
trading
1:02:58
partner like Brazil like
Argentina like
1:03:01
Chile like Peru want to
maintain that
1:03:03
relationship but in order to do
so that
1:03:06
the Chinese need to understand
that by
1:03:08
financing the Maduro government
they are
1:03:10
actually creating problems
inside of
1:03:12
South America especially the
outflow of
1:03:15
refugees from Venezuela that are
1:03:17
seriously affecting the
stability of
1:03:18
countries like Colombia Peru
Ecuador
1:03:21
Chile and Brazil yeah
1:03:23
there you go that's that's what
we're
1:03:26
doing that's that's your you
don't need
1:03:27
to know anything else we are
all over it
1:03:29
who is that guy
1:03:31
that is the Undersecretary of
state Tom
1:03:34
Shannon Shannon's speaker too
much me
1:03:37
thinketh this is way out there
in a
1:03:40
problem getting some other
tooth that
1:03:45
was yeah I agree with you what
is this
1:03:47
what is the point of this well
it's not
1:03:50
like deep disinformation or
some sort of
1:03:53
just giving a briefing leading
or
1:03:55
anything you go on NPR just
explain
1:03:58
the strategies and this makes
no sues
1:04:00
heat bad that must be the way
the State
1:04:03
Department of State is being
run these
1:04:05
days
1:04:05
now the techno experts that
we've
1:04:08
discussed who have targeted us
when we
1:04:10
talk about Venezuela we're not
doing it
1:04:12
right
1:04:13
I'm not talking about him right
I'm
1:04:16
starting to see some patterns
here as
1:04:20
there's some young Venezuelan
kids and I
1:04:24
say kids in the 22 24 25 year
old range
1:04:28
who put together a video
specifically
1:04:32
meant for Alexandria Ocasio
Cortez who
1:04:36
as we know is all in on
maduro's regime
1:04:40
and the and the socialist
country of
1:04:43
Venezuela at least that's the
way it's
1:04:45
portrayed in the in the m5m and
and then
1:04:49
this video appears I'm gonna
play a
1:04:51
little bit of at first you get
the idea
1:04:53
let me tell you something
Alexandra
1:04:55
Alexandra Castillo Cortez I
want to tell
1:04:58
you something else Olivo no

like Chicago Cortez you're a
liar you
1:05:17
are a liar you don't know what
you're
1:05:19
talking about you're clueless
1:05:20
you have never gone through
socialism so
1:05:22
you preach it like you do
America will
1:05:25
never be a socialist country
American
1:05:28
will never be a socialist
country a lot
1:05:31
of people think socialism it's
all about
1:05:33
equality and free stuff what
socialism
1:05:36
is really about it's a
starvation people
1:05:39
dying from lack of medicine
Alexandre de
1:05:41
pasto Cortez now just notice
that the
1:05:44
lack of medicine all the
talking points
1:05:46
are who produces no this is why
I was
1:05:52
interested in sharing this it
goes on
1:05:54
for about three minutes 30 more
seconds
1:05:58
to hear some of the other
points you've
1:06:00
heard in this type of campaign
it's
1:06:02
really about it's a starvation
people
1:06:04
dying from lack of medicine
Alexandre
1:06:06
DeFazio Cortez I want to tell
you
1:06:08
something if you really believe
in
1:06:10
socialism why are you here in
the u.s.
1:06:12
why don't you move to Venezuela
Cuba
1:06:14
Russia Afghanistan China
1:06:17
why don't you just go there no
you talk
1:06:20
about socialism as it is
something so
1:06:23
perfect but you know it's not
well no
1:06:25
actually you really truly
believe that
1:06:27
that he works like that but it
doesn't
1:06:28
just go and look in the actual
facts and
1:06:31
my just booze isn't it good to
have your
1:06:34
life going every day to
Starbucks
1:06:36
tweeting how much I hate
capitalism from
1:06:39
your MacBook that's great right
okay so
1:06:41
when I hear these things you
know like
1:06:43
isn't it great drinking your
Starbucks
1:06:46
and tweeting how much you hate
1:06:48
capitalism on your MacBook I'm
like okay
1:06:51
these are talking points have
heard them
1:06:52
before and they sound a lot
with that
1:06:55
medicine thing and Maduro
sounds a lot
1:06:58
like the emails we received
this is
1:07:00
produced and distributed by
1:07:03
turning-point us a home of
Candace Owens
1:07:07
and Charlie Kirk these are the
1:07:10
propagandists and now I'm
starting to
1:07:12
think maybe it was their their
outfit
1:07:15
that sent us emails who would
know about
1:07:16
podcasts who would stay on top
of that I
1:07:19
was giving the US State
Department too
1:07:21
much credit I think so these
may be the
1:07:24
actors and how does this fit in
with
1:07:27
what I thought Turning Point
USA was I
1:07:29
don't know I never heard of
them well
1:07:32
you know Candice Owens oh yeah
yeah you
1:07:36
know she's with the blex it
that I like
1:07:39
Kansas Owens I'd like the list
I'd like
1:07:41
what she does I'd like what she
does for
1:07:42
Prager University but what is
this what
1:07:46
is these these guys are -
Turning Point
1:07:48
USA this is this is
propagandistic crap
1:07:53
and I can't take them very
seriously
1:07:55
after hearing this but well
what do we
1:07:58
know about this bitch it's just
like
1:08:00
that those horrible Democrat the
1:08:04
celebrity ones where the
celebrities bad
1:08:06
yeah yeah I think we have to
change the
1:08:10
color of blue to green black
and white
1:08:14
stuff like that just black and
white -
1:08:16
probably well I'm gonna look
into look a
1:08:18
little deeper into
turning-point and see
1:08:20
if there I know Charlie Kirk is
and I
1:08:23
thought he's just
1:08:25
I thought they were kind of a
good
1:08:27
outfit but this just uh can you
just
1:08:30
promise our crap
1:08:31
yes yes very sour and with that
I would
1:08:35
like to thank you for your
courage to
1:08:37
say in the morning to you the
man who
1:08:38
put the C and chai comm Johnson
in the
1:08:48
morning to our troll room all
trolls
1:08:50
always welcome 24 hours a day
seven days
1:08:53
a week no agenda stream comms
where you
1:08:55
can listen to the live stream
and it is
1:08:57
often actually live
interactions live
1:08:59
like it is on Thursdays and
Sundays when
1:09:01
we're on the microphone you can
get in
1:09:04
there you can do all kinds of
stuff you
1:09:05
control we can troll some more
and then
1:09:08
just troll or you could also be
helpful
1:09:10
sometimes that does happen know
what you
1:09:13
okay much anybody want to be
helpful
1:09:15
oh no that would be a bad idea
and in
1:09:18
the morning to see I believe it
was yes
1:09:23
Darren O'Neill who brought us
the
1:09:25
artwork for episode 11 36 1136
episodes
1:09:30
that episode was titled spy
slut which
1:09:33
is a CIA term we learned on the
show and
1:09:36
Darren O'Neill oh yes he
brought us the
1:09:41
a fine example of what you
don't like at
1:09:45
a Whole Foods checkout line
someone with
1:09:48
face tattoos blown out ear
earlobes and
1:09:54
I think in this case both
Darren and I
1:09:59
and girl Darren and we kind of
went for
1:10:02
the the cheapest laugh I guess
is that
1:10:05
what we would classify this is
well now
1:10:08
that you mention it nose ring
mustache
1:10:16
when you saw in this this piece
of art
1:10:18
now this art okay there was a
bunch of
1:10:22
stuff that was actually it was
all
1:10:25
borderline I mean the the kind
of the
1:10:28
funniest sickest one was the
black royal
1:10:32
extreme cave bear extremely
racist
1:10:36
racist yes racist piece
1:10:40
I like the mental health one
the most
1:10:42
but it was like more of an
evergreen
1:10:44
didn't really have much to do
with
1:10:45
anything the cat with the with
the phone
1:10:51
is funny but not pertinent to
the show
1:10:55
the thing was it we actually
looked over
1:10:58
these though it was pertinent
to the
1:10:59
show was the mustachioed
character yeah
1:11:05
so that's why that's really the
reason
1:11:06
we picked it and so what else
made it an
1:11:11
email comment to us that the
artwork is
1:11:14
really just part of a package
of three
1:11:16
elements of promotion and I
want to
1:11:19
bring that up because it does
work in
1:11:20
concert we have the album art
we have
1:11:24
the show title and we have the
opening
1:11:26
blurb at the beginning of the
show and
1:11:29
each one of those three
elements is
1:11:32
important in promoting each new
a new
1:11:35
episode personally I think it's
like
1:11:37
Titleist yes band and we have
made a
1:11:40
rule just not yes your rule is
your rule
1:11:45
you can't cross over yeah you
can't have
1:11:48
the the artwork be the same or
have the
1:11:51
same topic as the title and the
opening
1:11:55
giblet can't be related to the
other two
1:11:57
either I don't know why we came
up with
1:11:59
it why was you it this is place
but I
1:12:02
like it makes us em well once
it became
1:12:06
established mm-hmm because at
some point
1:12:08
I think we did have a couple of
contrary
1:12:10
well that's called issus what
the
1:12:11
artworks
1:12:12
is doing once it became
established we
1:12:16
just kind of said okay well
this is what
1:12:18
we're gonna do we could do it
it's not
1:12:19
like it's impossible no people
really
1:12:22
want to hear that conversation
I should
1:12:24
record it when we're discussing
artwork
1:12:26
and titles
1:12:28
well let's record it you just
recorded
1:12:30
it no I mean the actual process
oh maybe
1:12:35
one of the things we've noticed
with the
1:12:36
artwork since we're discussing
it as
1:12:39
people try to guess
1:12:40
oh yeah the topic that we will

here that makes him look like
Alfred E
1:13:24
Newman is out cell done yes

1:14:24
genetic deformity where most
citizens
1:14:27
are born with teeny tiny little
heads

1:19:31
what's going on in Venezuela
the heart
1:19:32
formula is this we go out we're
here
1:19:36
people in the mouth
1:19:44
[Music]
1:19:51
European Parliament elections
are coming
1:19:53
up and it's very odd because
due to the
1:19:57
lag of blog of brexit the the
European
1:20:01
parties are in and and they
they can
1:20:05
vote on European representation
since
1:20:07
the breakfast is brexit
breakfast since
1:20:10
breakfast the breakfast it's
not yet
1:20:12
done the European Union and just
1:20:15
explaining this is is kind of
1:20:17
complicated and but I think it's
1:20:18
interesting to do it without
the visuals
1:20:20
because the European Union had
a little
1:20:22
cartoon to explain exactly how
it works
1:20:25
that do you know how these
European
1:20:28
Parliament elections work I be
remiss if
1:20:32
I said I absolutely knew but I
don't
1:20:34
well I find it to be rather
confusing
1:20:36
I'm sure somehow Faraj gets in
is all
1:20:39
the end of the day Faraj is in
this
1:20:43
year's European elections it's
a big
1:20:46
deal I love this kind of
Eurocentric
1:20:49
British accent it's very
different from
1:20:52
from what you hear in the
United in a
1:20:54
real British accent yeah it is
it's it's
1:20:56
just it's very duros country
Appa SH
1:20:59
yeah they got a whole room for
these
1:21:00
people in Brussels who do
nothing for
1:21:02
these voiceovers but it's not
simple not
1:21:05
to help you get your head
around them we
1:21:07
put together this handy
explainer
1:21:10
confusingly different parts of
the EU
1:21:12
use different voting systems
but all are
1:21:16
some form of proportional
representation
1:21:18
some vote for parties who have
selected
1:21:21
a fixed list of candidates to
appear on
1:21:23
the ballot paper other
countries have
1:21:25
more open lists where voters
choose a
1:21:27
party or indicate who is their
favorite
1:21:29
candidate here electors choose
as many
1:21:33
candidates as they like and
number them
1:21:35
by preference turnout at EU
elections
1:21:38
has dropped from 62% to 42%
over the
1:21:42
last four decades because you
made it so
1:21:44
easy that's why that's despite
a handful
1:21:46
of countries including Belgium
Greece
1:21:47
and Bulgaria where voting is
compulsory
1:21:52
Emme peas are elected to
represent
1:21:54
geographical areas regions in
some
1:21:56
countries like Italy while in
others
1:21:58
such as Germany they have the
whole
1:22:00
country as their constituency
the number
1:22:03
each country gets it is
proportional to
1:22:05
its population now this is kind
of
1:22:07
interesting when you hear the
difference
1:22:08
it's a base it's pretty much
the way our
1:22:11
House of Representatives works
except
1:22:13
they don't have the a the
concept of a
1:22:15
Senate with some equal power so
here
1:22:17
it's just whoever is the
biggest rules
1:22:19
Germany the most populous will
get 96
1:22:22
MEP s for its eighty 2.8
million people
1:22:25
while tiny Malta with four
hundred and
1:22:27
seventy five thousand people
has just
1:22:29
six they will serve a five-year
term
1:22:32
2019 to 2024 and spend their
time
1:22:35
between European Parliament in
1:22:37
Strasbourg and Brussels they
pass EU
1:22:40
laws and approve its budget
along with
1:22:42
the European Council MEP s while
1:22:45
representing countries or
regions sit in
1:22:48
transnational groups in the
parliament
1:22:50
of according to political
ideology for
1:22:52
example there are groupings to
represent
1:22:54
the center-right socialists
greens and
1:22:56
others for Euroskeptics MEP s
also help
1:23:00
choose the president of the
European
1:23:02
Commission the largest political
1:23:04
grouping after May's election
has the
1:23:06
strongest mandate to have its
choice
1:23:08
head up the Commission the
European
1:23:10
Council comprising Chiefs of EU
1:23:12
countries first votes on a
nominee
1:23:14
chosen after taking into
account the
1:23:17
election result if they approve
the
1:23:19
candidate it goes to the
European
1:23:21
Parliament where he or she must
get the
1:23:23
support of a majority of MEP s
this is
1:23:29
so convoluted your eyes glaze
over man I
1:23:40
did I don't understand
especially with
1:23:42
that background music hands is
that
1:23:44
meant to make me feel calm
while trying
1:23:46
to comprehend so everyone has a
1:23:48
different system everyone does
it
1:23:50
differently then you throw a
whole bunch
1:23:51
of people out there and then
they all
1:23:53
those people then go and
determine who
1:23:55
they add which could be a
totally Rando
1:23:57
they could bring in to be the
president
1:23:59
of the European Parliament and
then they
1:24:03
get that
1:24:04
well good luck every every
country and
1:24:08
every union gets the government
1:24:09
government she deserves and
you're
1:24:11
getting all but really the
government
1:24:15
know it's a scam so as I'm
looking
1:24:18
around since there's no news in
America
1:24:19
at least I didn't feel anything
really
1:24:21
that newsworthy I wound up
watching
1:24:23
euronews and euronews had a
number of
1:24:28
stories about Samos the island
of Samos
1:24:31
which is a Greek island but
it's an it's
1:24:34
it's an odd one because it is
almost
1:24:36
it's so far off the coast of
Greece is
1:24:38
actually very close to Turkey
and you
1:24:42
know you could hop a hop a
little boat
1:24:46
to get from the coast of Turkey
to this
1:24:49
Greek island and what has
happened is
1:24:51
Samos has been used as a
parking place
1:24:55
for migrants who want to come
into
1:24:58
Europe and are just being held
there
1:25:01
because the European Union is
like yeah
1:25:03
you know we've got enough
people and
1:25:06
remember they kind of closed
some
1:25:08
borders here and there and
whatever you
1:25:10
don't look at Greece you know
Greece is
1:25:11
where doesn't count because you
know
1:25:13
they think I know from the
money we
1:25:15
don't care about them Greece is
pretty
1:25:17
much the dumping site of the EU
and they
1:25:21
had well under play the the
first piece
1:25:26
here about yeah about what's
happening
1:25:32
in the numbers of what's taking
place
1:25:33
and then there was a 20-minute
piece
1:25:36
which I pulled one little
specific piece
1:25:38
out of here's that here's the
basic
1:25:39
story of Samos talking to a
person who
1:25:42
set up a community center for
these
1:25:44
thousands of refugees living in
a tent
1:25:47
city with no sanitation no
garbage
1:25:52
disposal no sanitation and no
toilets
1:25:55
zero zero toilets situation
hasn't
1:25:59
improved
1:26:00
in any way right now there's
over 3,300
1:26:05
people on Samos the capacity of
the
1:26:07
country 650 the delays on the
asylum
1:26:11
procedures are extremely long
we've seen
1:26:14
recently people getting
interview dates
1:26:17
for 2022 even someone for 2023
for their
1:26:21
appeal which is so they're
sitting in
1:26:24
these UN UNICEF actually it
says on the
1:26:27
side UNICEF tents any dope no
toys no no
1:26:32
the people just pooping on the
perimeter
1:26:35
and any of the next farmlands
and and
1:26:39
all kinds of stuff like this
and these
1:26:41
people say I've been here for
eight
1:26:42
months I can't live here for
another
1:26:44
year and a half before I get my
sight my
1:26:46
asylum hearing so I'm going to
go crazy
1:26:49
and of course there's all kinds
of crime
1:26:51
now taking place having people
waiting
1:26:56
for such a long period of time
without
1:26:59
any clear information well
knowing
1:27:01
what's going to happen with
them without
1:27:03
having a proper process where
they can
1:27:09
integration process in place or
having a
1:27:12
possibility to work and provide
for
1:27:13
themselves it really affects
people
1:27:16
especially their mental health
1:27:19
this causes a lot of distress
it doesn't
1:27:23
look that things are going to
change
1:27:24
anytime soon because the system
in
1:27:26
places is broken right now well
if we
1:27:30
look at the you turkey deal it
has never
1:27:32
properly worked this is the
eu-turkey
1:27:35
deal where if someone came into
the EU
1:27:40
could not rightfully claim
asylum the EU
1:27:44
paid several billion euros to
Turkey to
1:27:47
take them back we remember I
remember we
1:27:49
covered this well I just send
them back
1:27:51
no problem well that's not
working out
1:27:53
because they're not being sent
back
1:27:54
they're not being accepted even
though
1:27:56
you could almost toss them over
over off
1:27:58
the island they could swim back
to
1:28:00
church well if we look at the
you turkey
1:28:03
deal it has never properly
worked people
1:28:07
were supposed to their cases are
1:28:08
supposed to be treated very
quickly and
1:28:10
like the hot spots are supposed
to be
1:28:13
like triage point where people
are that
1:28:18
are supposed to get asylum they
they are
1:28:21
allowed to stay and those that
are
1:28:22
rejected are asylum they would
get
1:28:25
quickly returned to Turkey war
to their
1:28:29
home country right now what
what what's
1:28:32
happening it's people are are
just
1:28:35
waiting for months or years for
their
1:28:38
asylum procedure to be
completed and
1:28:41
without knowing what kind of
even if
1:28:44
they get a rejection they are
still
1:28:45
staying here
1:28:49
and yeah there was a piece
about some
1:28:51
people who will have their
little house
1:28:53
there and and they're literally
on the
1:28:56
other side of the fence and and
they're
1:28:58
feeding some of these people as
they can
1:28:59
you see the slop that they're
getting is
1:29:01
passes for food is just I mean
this is
1:29:04
inhumane
1:29:05
animalistic circumstances makes
you
1:29:07
really think that our putting
kids in
1:29:09
cages is a good deal when you
see this
1:29:12
and it's the EU helping out
right now
1:29:14
the policy of the European you
needs to
1:29:16
send the big chunk of money to
the Greek
1:29:19
government but the money does
not reach
1:29:21
the people on the ground is not
1:29:23
acceptable that someone has to
live on
1:29:24
in a tent for eight months a
year or a
1:29:26
year and a half with like no
sanitation
1:29:29
no protection no proper food
looking at
1:29:36
the most vulnerable like babies
or
1:29:37
children or pregnant women
there isn't
1:29:40
like they have to live yeah
there is not
1:29:45
a lot of money sent but the
money does
1:29:47
not reach the ground so a lot
of the
1:29:48
initiatives like this one that
see like
1:29:50
our our group we work not only
on
1:29:53
private donations yeah so that
sounds
1:29:55
like it's going extremely well
so next
1:29:57
time we have anyone in the
European
1:29:59
Union criticize us of our
immigration
1:30:01
policies I'd like you to focus
on the
1:30:03
island of samos as they have
done
1:30:05
something and what they've done
is
1:30:07
they've determined it would be
better to
1:30:10
move this camp a couple miles
up the
1:30:13
road so it's further away from
the main
1:30:16
drag the main city
unfortunately that
1:30:18
puts it exactly half a mile
from a
1:30:21
little village a little
picturesque
1:30:24
village in on the island of
Samos in
1:30:27
Greece and what euronews did in
this
1:30:29
20-minute piece you know how
they
1:30:31
they'll have someone talk and
they'll
1:30:33
just voice over and like you
know as a
1:30:36
translation you know
overdubbing I guess
1:30:38
is what what they'd call it
yeah well
1:30:41
now it's like a complete radio
play this
1:30:45
is and with emotion does they
have a
1:30:48
couple of people at this you
know
1:30:49
impromptu town meeting and it's
you know
1:30:52
a couple old guys couple old
ladies and
1:30:54
all yelling but you don't know
what
1:30:56
they're saying but they've
chopped it
1:30:58
all together with
1:30:59
the euronews translated voices
but their
1:31:03
acting I realized it's like a
radio play
1:31:07
the Greek government has
promised to
1:31:09
close down the valley refugee
center
1:31:11
soon and to open a new and
bigger one a
1:31:13
few kilometers away from the
capital
1:31:15
Jurgis is the president of the
village
1:31:18
of mytilini next to which the
new camp
1:31:20
is set to be built here are the
former
1:31:22
slaughterhouses where the
migrant center
1:31:24
is set to be installed you can
see where
1:31:28
my community is the distance is
one
1:31:30
kilometer so you can understand
I will
1:31:35
come to our village the topic
has
1:31:37
inflamed the community a group
of
1:31:39
villages is expecting us go to
the
1:31:42
destination they want to go to
and we
1:31:45
are keeping them here by force
so they
1:31:47
are giving us their misery I
mean their
1:31:49
misery becomes ours people
wandering
1:31:53
around without us knowing so
they are
1:32:00
that's the issue they can take
them
1:32:02
wherever they want but we're
here we
1:32:04
don't want them that's it we
cannot live
1:32:06
with those people they have 800
diseases
1:32:10
full of black people
1:32:12
no they steal we will take the
law into
1:32:16
our own quite possibly this all
sounds
1:32:19
racist
1:32:20
we are not please don't
associate us
1:32:23
with this term we've closed its
borders
1:32:27
Andes Greece that has paid the
price for
1:32:29
it those Europeans who take and
give
1:32:32
orders can't they understand
that the
1:32:34
only thing they are going to
achieve is
1:32:37
the rise of the far-right
1:32:39
little by little they are
pushing us to
1:32:41
the extreme this is what Europe
has
1:32:43
succeeded in this is what you
should
1:32:46
tell the video was kind of cool
as a
1:32:50
radio play yeah that's funny
well yeah
1:32:56
they can bitch and moan about
what we do
1:32:58
but that's it's got to be a
mess over
1:33:00
there this whole thing is a
joke you
1:33:02
know I'm reminded us listening
to all
1:33:04
this is you were just playing
these
1:33:05
clips and I'm thinking you know
the
1:33:07
Europeans really don't have a
culture to
1:33:09
do to manage the be you in the
1:33:13
nation of the the United States
the even
1:33:16
when we had 13 colonies let
alone when
1:33:19
we started expanding mm-hmm if
you read
1:33:21
the literature from that era the
1:33:22
Europeans scoffed at what we're
up to
1:33:24
especially when we went
independent and
1:33:27
decided to become one big group
as
1:33:29
opposed to the small colonies
that were
1:33:31
all owned by different parts of
Europe
1:33:33
in many ways or in slightly
independent
1:33:36
but not too far was that it did
at the
1:33:40
point of the 1776 era it was
believed
1:33:44
that the country was too big to
manage
1:33:48
this is there going to be the
downfall
1:33:50
of the United States is that
these 13
1:33:52
colonies you can't register
shall never
1:33:55
work yes exactly and so the
there was
1:33:58
all of the agreement the French
would
1:34:00
say that the Brits would say
that to
1:34:01
everybody
1:34:02
it was too big I mean look at
the size
1:34:04
of the you know some of our
countries
1:34:06
and there's it's already too big
1:34:07
meanwhile so they go from that
kind of
1:34:09
thinking over hundreds of years
and
1:34:11
there's dental changed into one
language
1:34:14
they don't do anything in
Europe to to
1:34:16
make it easier they still have
all their
1:34:17
separate little languages you
know and
1:34:19
they decide to make one big
monstrosity
1:34:21
and try to manage it with a
bunch of
1:34:23
bureaucrats running it out of
Belgium
1:34:24
does this make any sense to
anybody
1:34:26
historically no and by the way
in in the
1:34:32
Netherlands is this there was a
smallish
1:34:34
town that has a local newspaper
and the
1:34:38
local newspaper was not allowed
by the
1:34:40
authorities to inform the
community that
1:34:45
there would be a new asylum
seeker
1:34:49
center that will be set up
right near
1:34:52
their town this is
1:34:56
that it isn't over what how did
that go
1:34:59
over not very well the in fact
the
1:35:00
entire newsdesk quit the paper
the paper
1:35:05
quit itself pretty much why
which the
1:35:10
paper got to do it because they
were not
1:35:11
allowed to publish this news
and they
1:35:14
were forbidden from publishing
this news
1:35:16
so no one there knew about it
until all
1:35:18
of a sudden this they start
building
1:35:20
this Center like what is this
all they
1:35:22
can have asylum seekers over
here which
1:35:24
of course in Liberal Europe
everybody
1:35:26
loves people coming seeking
asylum but
1:35:30
you know where we don't want it
yeah
1:35:32
NIMBY exactly yeah well well I
do have
1:35:38
some news from over here really
okay I
1:35:42
have a couple of clips that
bother me
1:35:44
because there's missing
information all
1:35:46
right this one here is the
barge report
1:35:48
from CBS where we had a little
spill
1:35:52
late this afternoon two barges
and an
1:35:53
oil tanker collided in a
shipping
1:35:55
channel in Houston one of the
barges
1:35:58
capsized after a hole opened up
in its
1:36:00
side it was carrying about
25,000
1:36:02
barrels of a toxic chemical
used to make
1:36:05
gasoline some of that has
spilled into
1:36:08
the water
1:36:10
hmm when you hear that what do
you that
1:36:13
what what goes through your
mind and so
1:36:14
far as information what
information did
1:36:17
was kind of not told who was
left out
1:36:20
seems well whose barge was this
well
1:36:23
that's one of them yeah
interesting to
1:36:27
know yes aren't you even
curious about
1:36:32
what toxic chemicals gotten
into the
1:36:34
water that's Houston gives a
shit
1:36:36
well there's anything but
Houston yeah
1:36:43
I'd be interested do we know if
we
1:36:44
figured it out then do we know
it all
1:36:46
what's happening if you go look
at the
1:36:48
news reports this was even more
1:36:49
interesting instead of a toxic
chemical
1:36:51
of this I'll read you some
headlines
1:36:53
from various stories barge leaks
1:36:55
gasoline product in Houston
ship oh I
1:36:58
know what it is barge and
tanker collide
1:37:00
linking gas product mm-hmm
products
1:37:04
largest causing massive gas
product holy
1:37:07
crap we're gonna die what is
this stuff
1:37:10
well what it turns out to be if
you do a
1:37:12
little research oh I know
there's not
1:37:14
even get into it in these news
stories
1:37:16
either they just call it reform
eight I
1:37:18
know what it is I know it was
it's the
1:37:20
stuff that turns the frogs gay
no oh
1:37:23
that's atrazine yes
1:37:27
atrazine and it's not using
petroleum
1:37:29
products huh no it's caught
they call it
1:37:31
all these news articles talk
about it is
1:37:33
reforming reform 8 is this kind
of a
1:37:36
witch's brew of crap that comes
off of
1:37:40
various catalytic reform of so
it's a
1:37:43
waste it's a waste product no
it's not a
1:37:45
waste price all high-end stuff
oh it's
1:37:48
the goodest all mixed up so you
have
1:37:49
toluene and napped the naphtha
yeah you
1:37:53
got benzene which is the is
carcinogen
1:37:58
xylene xylene lot of xylene
yeah so you
1:38:01
have all these aromatics and
some
1:38:03
benzene and some other
chemicals all
1:38:05
it's a witch's brew and it
makes the
1:38:07
it's used to boost the octane
of normal
1:38:11
supercharged fish in Houston
then well
1:38:14
it's the thing that was left
out of the
1:38:16
report in my opinion is the
fact that
1:38:17
benzene which is highly
carcinogenic was
1:38:20
leaked into the water nobody's
talking
1:38:23
damn and not just a little bit
so this
1:38:27
is mines so this is a cover-up
then
1:38:29
because other I mean just even
I know
1:38:31
it's poor reporting no it's it
sounds
1:38:34
more like a publisher they get
all bent
1:38:36
out of shape if you say that so
yeah
1:38:40
don't let the public bent out
of shape
1:38:41
about the fact you got a bunch
of
1:38:43
benzene in the water which is
not a good
1:38:45
product no but yeah but they
way they
1:38:50
had covered up toxic as you
know toluene
1:38:53
is not these things aren't that
there's
1:38:55
because this stuff will get
here get
1:38:58
into the water supply
eventually won't
1:38:59
it I don't know if most of it
evaporates
1:39:02
now sold high-end I mean it's
all very
1:39:06
volatile so it'll go away
1:39:08
so not that big a problem know
if you
1:39:11
boil the channel the stuff will
come
1:39:14
right off don't worry just boil
your arm
1:39:18
it'll rub right off that's
already safe
1:39:21
I always tell people use these
you know
1:39:24
most most oils I don't I get a
good
1:39:26
lecture on this but most oils
that you
1:39:28
get unless they specifically say
1:39:30
expeller or crushed depends on
how how
1:39:33
the oil is made but you know
first
1:39:35
virgin olive oil first press is
pressed
1:39:38
and then a lot of a lot of oils
or
1:39:40
expellers and expel they spin
it around
1:39:42
it comes out of the thence
seeds and
1:39:44
whatever but most oil
productions like
1:39:47
they did Missoula the giant
gallons of
1:39:50
oil that you get yes tends to
be a
1:39:53
hexane extractor which is the
easiest
1:39:55
way to pull oil out of nuts and
fruits
1:39:57
and whatever you pull into seeds
1:39:59
whenever you're pulling the oil
out of
1:40:01
is you extract with hexane make
a mash
1:40:03
put hexane in there flash it
off and you
1:40:06
end up with some oil the
problem is
1:40:08
there's always resented I
believe I
1:40:10
believe that there's no way you
can
1:40:13
flash all the hexane off and so
you end
1:40:15
up with a some residual hexane
in the
1:40:19
oils ah and now a lot of the
natural
1:40:22
food for next oh my god you
can't use
1:40:24
these oils for anything you can
use
1:40:25
these oils I also believe based
on just
1:40:29
basic chemistry that if you
yeah if you
1:40:32
take the corn oil that's been
hexane and
1:40:35
extract it and use
1:40:36
salad-dressing you're probably
gonna
1:40:37
ingest some so you don't use
that you
1:40:40
use olive oil of course of
course we
1:40:42
don't yeah but if you're making
french
1:40:45
fries would you heat that oil
up to 320
1:40:47
or plus degrees if there's any
residual
1:40:51
in there it's gone so it's safe
so do I
1:40:54
go long oil or short
1:40:56
basically I love how you know
yeah I
1:41:01
love you to throw out the based
on basic
1:41:04
chemistry that you lost me it
can you
1:41:09
know things flash off and this
would now
1:41:13
does that work with chicks no
it turns
1:41:17
out unless there Cammi
chemistry nerds
1:41:20
right doesn't really work or
with any of
1:41:23
them I just want to make sure
no it's
1:41:26
not a chick magnet anything
remember
1:41:29
doing it for people out there
who like
1:41:30
to cook and they're always
agree about
1:41:32
this and that about it these
overpriced
1:41:34
expeller oils I mean I cook
yeah I try
1:41:40
to cook ooh and I French fry I
try to
1:41:41
cook in safflower or sunflower
oil which
1:41:45
is a really good oil for deep
fat frying
1:41:47
I've gotten kind of hooked on
the
1:41:50
sorghum syrup I know it's what
growing
1:41:56
up in Holland in the
Netherlands for
1:41:59
breakfast there's there's
really there's
1:42:02
certainly younger kids we'll
have a
1:42:04
slice of bread or maybe two
slices
1:42:06
buttered up or margarine
actually and
1:42:10
then they either put chocolate
flakes on
1:42:13
there or chocolate sprinkles
they can
1:42:16
also do they can do the colored
1:42:17
sprinkles but also molasses just
1:42:19
spreading molasses on top of
the butter
1:42:22
right and I grew up eating that
or they
1:42:25
can go the other way and have a
piece of
1:42:27
bread again with the margarine
slash
1:42:29
butter then slices of young
aged Gouda
1:42:32
cheese that would be another
another fan
1:42:34
favorite in the morning but
also for
1:42:37
lunch but you know it and I
just took a
1:42:40
piece of bread and I put some
some
1:42:42
butter on it
1:42:45
sorghum syrup and oh my god it
took me
1:42:48
back is delicious you know it
sounds
1:42:52
like it should taste like poop
1:42:54
sorghum that doesn't sound
appealing but
1:42:57
when a try it's good man
1:42:59
that is sorghum pancake for
breakfast
1:43:01
today we should try my sorghum
syrup on
1:43:05
your sorghum pancake you know I
like
1:43:08
you're the one great delicacy
that the
1:43:10
United States has pretty much
larger
1:43:13
mine in Canada and Jemima is
his maple
1:43:17
syrup not Aunt Jemima Aunt
Jemima is a
1:43:20
gun sugar water the fructose
corn syrup
1:43:22
it'll kick crap in who knows
what's in
1:43:25
there but a real 100% maple
syrup is a
1:43:30
is a c-minus rather cheap
considering
1:43:36
how rare and valuable it is
around the
1:43:39
world it's very expensive yeah
so all
1:43:43
right back there off of the
food okay
1:43:45
well just a few updates
1:43:47
jussie Smollett will not return
to
1:43:49
Empire for next season he's
done oh he's
1:43:52
on again off again
1:43:53
no I guess now it's off guess
they you
1:43:56
know the Fox News Fox yeah yeah
Fox made
1:44:01
their decision said now it's
not worth
1:44:03
it so he's off good liar yeah
you like
1:44:10
fries with that Bernie Sanders
and AOC
1:44:13
are calling for the creation of
1:44:16
government-owned banks run by
the US
1:44:18
Post Office and I want to say
I've well
1:44:23
would you like your savings in
stamps
1:44:25
well I've used this system when
I when I
1:44:27
was growing up it was quite
popular in
1:44:29
the Netherlands and it was
called post
1:44:31
hito and you literally did your
banking
1:44:34
at the post office or you could
do it
1:44:36
through the mail which was free
and you
1:44:38
filled out your little card for
payments
1:44:40
and and it's still there and
you can
1:44:41
still then now they do it
online but
1:44:44
it's what what interests me is
why don't
1:44:47
they promote a credit unions we
mean it
1:44:52
doesn't necessarily have to be a
1:44:54
government-run thing for it to
be more
1:44:56
of a non-profit model and
1:44:58
that's not trying to screw you
over at
1:45:00
least is being honest about it
not
1:45:02
getting back-end deals for the
worse
1:45:04
they screw you and that's a
credit union
1:45:06
we have them all over the
United States
1:45:07
and their and and they are
community
1:45:10
banking to this maximum you
don't have
1:45:13
to be in it you know yeah but
the having
1:45:17
a banking system within the
post office
1:45:21
it's I mean I don't know if we
could do
1:45:23
it with ours with our postal
system but
1:45:25
it's not a bad idea necessarily
I've
1:45:28
seen it were lines I've seen it
work
1:45:30
yeah you've seen it work but a
lot of
1:45:33
post offices because they're
little
1:45:35
fiefdoms in the United States
yeah it'd
1:45:37
be some issue with customer
service Oh
1:45:39
I mean just like me I don't
have a
1:45:41
mailbox so just imagine like
you move
1:45:43
lasari your you don't have any
money
1:45:46
sorry we don't we don't know
where your
1:45:49
where your money account is is
gone got
1:45:53
another clip dead is considered
1:45:55
something of a gaffe or maybe
not I'm
1:45:56
not sure but it would seem to
me that if
1:45:59
you were a news reader and you
were and
1:46:01
or an expert or remember the
woman who
1:46:05
was the head of Planned
Parenthood kind
1:46:07
of the yes seal Rogers Roger
Cecile
1:46:12
Richards Richards yes I like
I've always
1:46:16
liked her sauce and Richards
daughter
1:46:17
yes I do
1:46:20
she's starting I know what
you're gonna
1:46:23
say she's attractive except no
more
1:46:25
recently having been booted out
of
1:46:27
Planned Parenthood she really is
1:46:29
starting to look like George
Soros
1:46:32
[Music]
1:46:36
recently I didn't catch the
source look
1:46:43
for your Star Wars folk yeah
1:46:46
she's starting look since you
saw I mean
1:46:50
that's you know a drawback but
she was
1:46:51
on with Amy and there's a
little gaff in
1:46:53
here I want to see if you can
spot it I
1:46:56
don't know that you will but
you might
1:46:59
but I did immediately and I
just had to
1:47:02
go back to soil with this
bullcrap
1:47:03
how can you not know this okay
so have a
1:47:06
listen and anyone who wants to
be
1:47:08
elected has to respond to the
issue
1:47:11
that women care about so
that'll be a
1:47:13
lot of organizing work we're
doing both
1:47:15
online and offline in the
coming month
1:47:18
for Democratic women have now
announced
1:47:21
their plans to run for
president the
1:47:22
significance of this for you
and will
1:47:24
you be endorsing I think the
importance
1:47:26
of obviously there's there's no
way to
1:47:28
overstate the importance of
women
1:47:30
running for president and I'm
thrilled
1:47:32
that they are and I think
they're
1:47:34
raising issues that have long
been
1:47:35
needed to be raised i I think
it's it's
1:47:39
disturbing to see what I
believe is a
1:47:42
real double standard and how
they are
1:47:43
being treated versus the many
many many
1:47:46
men that are running for
president you
1:47:48
know two-thirds of political
reporting
1:47:49
is still done by men and so I'm
hoping
1:47:52
that both from super majority
through
1:47:55
other folks that follow the
media we can
1:47:57
actually be lifting up the
important
1:47:59
work that these women have done
as you
1:48:01
probably know these are women
who in
1:48:03
large part have never lost a
political
1:48:05
race and so when people talk
about women
1:48:07
being unelectable i think it's
really
1:48:08
important to look at their
record
1:48:10
because it stands up really in
contrast
1:48:12
to a lot of the folks the lot
of the men
1:48:14
who are actually in the race
right now
1:48:20
who's she working for now oh
it's some
1:48:23
guy so you'd look up huge
summer some
1:48:27
it's like a lot not a lobbying
group it
1:48:29
is some you know NGO kind of an
1:48:32
operation and why did she leave
I don't
1:48:36
know I enjoy that but the point
of the
1:48:38
clip was more about the gaffe
which I
1:48:40
think was inexcusable consider
we have
1:48:42
Amy who's a news reader and
knows that
1:48:45
knows should know about this
because
1:48:48
it's about they're talking
about women
1:48:49
politicians and and and Richard
should
1:48:52
have said something so what was
the gas
1:48:55
there are four women running for
1:48:57
president is the gaffe
1:49:02
there's five okay woman and
you're all
1:49:12
four women running for the name
them now
1:49:15
Hillary it would be six but
Hillary's
1:49:17
not running there are five not
four and
1:49:20
I think it was I think they
purposely
1:49:22
forget one and I think the one
they keep
1:49:24
forgetting is Tulsa Tulsa
Gabrielle yes
1:49:26
they don't even consider her a
contender
1:49:28
for some reason yes they dared
a eschew
1:49:31
her they stick a thumb in her
eye and
1:49:35
they did they say Ford the four
they're
1:49:36
talking about is his claw
Bachar Harris
1:49:40
Warren and and Gillibrand right
and the
1:49:44
fifth one is Tulsi Gabbard it's
so rude
1:49:48
but it's not it's not
unexpected you
1:49:51
know I bought first of all I
like Tulsi
1:49:54
Gabbard oh she Gabor's the only
anti-war
1:49:56
when we're talking about the
war and
1:49:57
that's what I'm saying
1:50:00
I like Tulsi Gabbard a lot I've
liked
1:50:02
her since we first became aware
of her
1:50:04
five years ago maybe six years
ago and
1:50:07
said that she could totally be
President
1:50:08
but her message is wrong she's
hates war
1:50:11
as a veteran she's been in war
and so
1:50:13
that's wrong but she also has a
yeah she
1:50:19
has zero stage presence
1:50:21
she she's very she's stately
and she
1:50:24
speaks thoughtfully and slowly
but who
1:50:27
gives a crap no one cared no
one wants
1:50:29
that anymore we need to see
fire and
1:50:31
both other people yes yes yes
yes we
1:50:34
need fire and passion and
pissed-off
1:50:36
miss and now she doesn't have
any of
1:50:38
that but for her to just be
excluded by
1:50:41
these top women is very less
she's doing
1:50:44
they excluded well sure because
they
1:50:46
never mentioned names
1:50:47
obviously I agree with not I
agree with
1:50:50
you there's only four women
running yeah
1:50:54
yeah bullcrap and I'm looking
at her
1:50:57
Wikipedia page but oh what does
know it
1:51:00
doesn't say where she's
currently
1:51:01
working it's some weird
organization I'd
1:51:07
like to know what happened
there because
1:51:08
