no agenda Valley where it's
cold and the
traffic is slow
I'm Jessie 400 shorter than
normal you
okay did you have your caffeine
this
morning that's fine all right
what you been up to what what
you been
up to
nothing nothing okay prep it
for this no
agenda show yeah me too me too
did you see the President's
speech
yesterday the one at North
Carolina yeah
no oh my god
buzzes yeah I know he's got
some new
material yeah yeah that's why
we tuned
in you know we we usually watch
you know
we watch a combo before seven
of MSNBC
CNN then you know we'll
probably watch
the Tucker Carlson at 7:00 no
way
not when Trump's on had to
switch to
YouTube that was fantastic
he literally comes in and says
I got
nothing better to do tonight
than be
here so yes he doesn't know
it's gonna
roll but the best the best was
this leg
that beautiful baby look at
after the
Pope Wow what a baby
[Applause]
that is a beautiful baby
that's like from an
advertisement
perfect look how happy that
baby is so
beautiful thank you darling
that's
really nice so someone's
holding up
their baby obviously in the
front but
what Trump didn't see is on the
back of
this baby's little jumper was a
huge
queue to Twitter pretty much
broke for a
moment as the cue baby was held
aloft
debate the baby had a cue as
bad a big
letter cute role or not it was
funny
that was real and I don't think
Trump
knew it I'm sure he didn't yeah
it was
just funny it was very good uh
so that's
what I did
well it's only an hour of your
time how
long ago it was it was hour and
a half
it's always an hour now but
it's our
yeah yeah well he had to go
through the
the squad he had vilify each
and every
one of them was pretty funny
yeah Jake
Tapper did a a bit on his show
on CNBC
where he described the
spectacle between
Trump and the squad as a as
Trump
trolling the Democratic Party
and and
the Trump haters mm-hmm by
making the
squad the the party
frontispiece yeah of
the party yeah I think that
bait was
taken pretty much the bait was
not only
taken but if you read the the
multiple
you know by the way Twitter's
never
supposed to be used for putting
together
twelve comments right here I
went to the
other threads oh you don't like
the
threads I think there's
actually one of
the better parts of Twitter
well that
you'd go to a blog true so go
read the
New York Times I mean there's
ways of
doing it but so anyway so he
does the
story and then he gets blasted
by the
people would normally be
worshipping him
Oh for being a
this is the way Trump's not
that smart
he's a big dummy there's no way
so they
go on and on and people
commenting on
tappers thesis is actually
funnier and
it's just like they see Ron
they're just
not possible to do it
incorrectly but
they're these people are out of
control
and it's really interesting
because
we're Twitter is just actually
yeah I
think you're right it's it's
out of
control
I got a lot of hate tweets
after our
epstein segment remember well
we're
anti-semitic just for bringing
it up do
you know even though it was
Steve
botanico that's what Jenny said
do what
happened yeah yeah imagine
these yeah
but you know they can't spell
your names
they can't figure out where to
get you
it was a plus it's a big atom
curry it's
so easy so easy but
interestingly you
know the on no again to social
dot-com
the the Fed averse the
Federation is is
actually pretty calm and even
with the
the onboarding let's put it
like that of
gab calm and this is a very
weird
experience actually in the late
90s
early 2000s we were you know we
were
still building out the network
and we
had peering agreements and if
you
couldn't peer with with a
certain
network than you because your
traffic
was too low or you know it was
out of
balance and you had to buy it
what is
called transit to still get to
that
network this was really the the
architecture of the network
itself and
it feels a bit like that where
all of a
sudden just you know this new
network
shows up and and you know the
this
people over there and gab you
know then
they're communicating to no
agenda
social calm it's a it's hard to
explain
but it feels oddly comfortable
how these
things you know just noose new
stuff new
people show up every single day
and this
moment I think minds.com is now
saying
that they're going to federated
to ever
they must have about a million
people
you know there's a couple
others that
could do it too yeah
well I'm glad you're enjoying
yourself
I'm enjoying the future my
friend you
can stay on that little Twitter
linear
Twitter is gonna be dwarfed
pretty soon
unless they federated still
think Jack
Dorsey is smart enough to do it
if he
did he might be able to
dominate you
know because everyone what
everyone
argues about on this is we're
talking
about Mastodon the open source
yeah
federated network of servers
what
everybody complains about is the
interface you know that's why
you have
play Romo you got pixel and all
these
different versions of it and
there's
some you know video specific
sites that
are also federating so Twitter
can just
be its own its own interface
it's it
feels so much like the AOL days
Twitter
is now AOL nothing like those
good old
days
twitter twitter is america oh
well was
still dominating this a key
word no
agenda and then they open up
you know
like you could click on a
special button
and all there was a web browser
oh my
goodness and i can look at the
internet
and then before you knew it
everyone's
like wow that dangerous stuff
over there
that's where i want to be i
don't be on
this safe keyword business now
don't
tell jack that's that's what's
gonna
happen but i think you should
still give
it a go you know the a lot of
people
made a lot of money with
America Online
yeah yeah have they sold it
five times
what was the guy's name now he
was our
board member Ted Ted Ted Ted
was there
who he owns the the hockey team
now and
he owns the Leonsis Ted Leonsis
exactly that guy made some
money off of
AOL Boop little Steve Case made
some
money - yeah I remember Snoop
Steve Case
type tried to buy my first
company -
Ursula - yes you're right
it's all gonna be in the book
remember
when I didn't sell it the Steve
Case oh
well well you're not in the
same league
as pointcast what am I saying
ah that
was so cool
hey the network's down hey turn
off
one cast everybody you know all
the
bandwidth and the other one the
other
one another flop but was
Friendster you
know praying everything for
social
networks and then I couldn't
quite bring
themselves to sell out how much
you just
like a 10 million but you could
be
making you have like let's eat
will you
have a half a million you have
50
million dollars in your pocket
and a
bunch of stock yeah now why do
that
that'd be crazy
oh well it's my buddy yeah I
heard it
actually so I did yeah I did I
have a
number of c-span things that I
watched
but first view played a pretty
funny
joke on me on the last episode
where you
told me I was listening to
Kamala Harris
and there was a lie lie because
it was
marianne williamson who right
away just
launched into yeah wait
actually I
should see if I have that clip
you know
what was what it was it was
probably
called camel Harris yeah
brother let me
see you see we played that clip
I mean
you had me going for a second
camel in
South Carolina or on a roll
quiz on a
roll here we go this is what
you played
and it wasn't Campbell Harris
it was
Marianne Williamson also a
Democratic
candidate for the nomination
ladies and
gentlemen not just superficial
things I
want a Department of Children
and Youth
I don't want to just talk about
medicare-for-all although we
need it we
need to talk about the chemical
policies
and the environmental policies
and the
food policy than the
agricultural
policies that are making us so
sick and
I don't just want to talk about
race-based policies because if
you're
just talking about race-based
policies
you're leaving open the
question is
whose fault that is
we need reparations that we need
reparations because reparations
do more
than pay money they are
spiritual power
they are inherent Maher culpa
they are
an acknowledgment of a wrong
that has
been done a debt that is owed
and a
willingness to pay it and in
addition to
that ladies and gentlemen we
need to do
more than just endlessly
prepare for war
and we need to do more than
just say
things like we need to bring
the boys
home we need to challenge the
underlying
forces that make all this
darkness
inevitable we need to challenge
the
military-industrial complex we
need to
talk about war as two big
business we
need a Department of Peace by
the way
that was the tip-off the
military-industrial can't play
that
without playing camelus clip
these in
South Carolina
so I'm thinking you know this is
reparations like I gotta check
out the
check this Kamla marianne
williamson out
with the ad OS community with
the
american descendants of slavery
and
there was one other video that
came out
on show day and so i sent and i
figured
he had listened to it but then
i also
sent this next clip of marianne
williamson to producer moe cuz
he you
know this is my one black
friend and he
always tells it to me straight
and i was
curious you know what do you
think about
is is she a possible candidate
and i
added to that this interesting
session
marianne williamson did at the
Unity
Church in Houston which is a
pyramid I'm
not quite sure what
denomination this
church is but this is what she
was doing
so to the african-americans in
the room
who would wish and be willing to
participate in this please
stand up and
now I'd like to ask white
Americans who
are sitting or near you
to please stand up and if the
African
American citizen would be
willing to
allow a white American who
wishes to
apologize to you and take
partners to
hold your hands and
as I as I speak I'm going to
ask the
white Americans in the room to
please
repeat after me on behalf of
myself and
on behalf of my country
to you and all african-americans
from the beginning of our
nation's
history
in honor of your ancestors and
on behalf
of your children
please hear this from my heart I
apologize
please forgive us so this goes
on for
about 15 minutes and so it's a
whole
bunch it's in it in the church
a whole
bunch of white people touching
and the
black person next to them and I
understand the idea I see where
she's
coming from until this part of
the
little the little ceremony
please accept
my apology this night it is for
you and
for your grandparents
and their grandparents before
them and
their grandparents before them
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
may the screams that were not
allowed be
allowed now no this is someone
in one of
the congregation and mo calls
me he says
black people will never vote
for this
woman this is like Kundalini
Yoga Yoga
he says this is speaking in
tongues
black people run away from this
shit she
will never ever ever get
anywhere near
the black vote with this and I
it's
right
Pentecostals which I believe
there has
to be some connection here the
Pentecostals are all into this
stuff but
even in the black Pentecostal
church
talking in tongues thing showed
up in
the early 1900's when some
preacher that
was having had a failing
congregation a
Pentecostal it introduced it to
the
lexicon and started doing it
and it just
packed them in always whites no
we
haven't seen blacks to go for
this
tugging and tungsten ever and I
watch a
lot of church sermons as a form
of just
watch entertainers
entertainment and
blacks have their own technique
for
riling up the crowd but talking
entices
not one of them and so Moe goes
on he
says did you have no idea even
Kundalini
Yoga which includes this
screaming very
similar to this he said no it
is seen as
the devil it is seen as you do
in fact
he sounds like voodoo the way
was being
done there the reason why Oprah
is now
distancing herself from Marianne
Williamson is because she
learned from
the past she made a huge
mistake this is
it this is I think maybe 15-20
years ago
well I am a Christian who
believes that
there are there are certainly
many more
paths to God other than
Christianity I'm
a free-thinking Christian who
believes
in my way but I don't believe
that it's
the only way
what I believe is that Jesus
came to
show us Christ consciousness so
if
you're not you know 100% kind
of on
board with the original
Christianity
vibe it's black people do not
like it in
fact he said that when the
rumors came
out about Hillary Clinton and
the Spirit
cooking you remember that yeah
he said
that really turned off a huge
portion of
of black America like even if
it's just
the rumor was enough don't want
now
don't want any if you look at
the
hip-hoppers rappers they always
have a
cross arm they call jesus
pieces you
know they got a hold their
religious
gear cuz you got to you got to
have all
of that otherwise you just
won't be
accepted so we can that you
could put
that on your list Mary even
though we
don't think she had a chance I
was yes
very funny I thought for a
moment maybe
but no no no no and that's a
little
nutty man and yelling stuff
this plant
is doing screaming no no this is
remember the Unity Church you
go look at
this thing it's a pyramid you
know
there's no denomination doesn't
really
explain what kind of church it
is so
it's one of the minute somebody
was
screaming yeah one of the
congregation's
actually to PSO I'm asking do
you think
as I've seen this happen and no
no no no
no it was meant to be it was
yeah it was
planted not against her ripped
it not
against her nois planet for her
as part
of her bit oh of course
yeah that's what yes of course
part of
the show yeah that's part of
the show
yeah so yeah anyway as she
walked right
into the next line it wasn't
like it was
a something that was just
startled her
no in fact she was in the back
of the of
the church and she just slowly
walked
forward and put her arms around
the
woman and you know it's okay
everybody's
good
tastic you know what a crock a
crap nice
to see a screamer I mean she
could get
voice acting work if she you
know it was
a fantastic scream I expect
that to
being an end to show make
somewhere yeah
not not by itself it's not as
solo no no
it has to be incorporated so
that's my
2020 news I think I don't think
I have
anything else for the u.s.
except for
the Biden gaffe oh I didn't get
the
Biden Jeff now here it is where
is it
yeah put it got to put it in
the player
for the plate I will apologize
the
deportation if in fact injury
deported
because in fact you're engaged
in a
misdemeanor and
family was separated showed
that I
didn't put that part in because
I
thought it was it was not as
germane as
the rest of the clip which is
nuttier
well by a standalone clip it's
I think
it's pretty decent and I
probably should
have done it it just shows that
you know
these guys
Joe's got same problems Trump
has except
Trump's president Joe's
fighting for it
so it's gonna be interesting to
old wise
I do have a few things they
have a
couple of series of clips okay
and
different I have a some of the
opening
of the squad for women that
decided to
become their own rock group and
they're
gonna be floating around as the
squad
and Omar we start to discover
she can't
pronounce their ours very well
yeah and
also she she can't say Patriot
just
Patriot she's just cuz there's
an R and
yes yes she can't she can't say
Patriot
she would be the type of person
who say
woot beer that she's let's
laugh about
speech impediments nice you
just brought
the gap up so that's what led
me into
this because she had
interesting gaff
see if you can pick this up
this is the
omar quotes as martin luther
king right
there Martin Luther King said
all we say
to America is be true to what
you say on
paper I believe this is a
pivotal moment
in our country sometimes it's a
pivotal
moment in our country mark
Martha Luther
King said be true to what you
put on
paper or something I mean I
love our
government as Martin Luther
King said
all we say to America is
be true to what you say on
paper I
believe this is a pivotal
moment in our
country all I heard was Biffle
and I
forgot everything
the problem with Omar she's
beautiful
you just look at why do I
dislike you
but she is a really pretty she
would be
a model in short but she has
gorgeous
features yes yes let's play her
I got
three clips from her but the
thing that
bothers me is she brings out
all and I
had to upgrade the Trump
rotation no boy
we have an addition yes I
there's two
that were left out one now this
is
children in cages Trump
rotation calm
everybody
Trump rotation calm I had to
add puts
rotation a rotation hello and
the second
one was wants to separate
families you
seeing a guy who wants to
separate wait
a minute did we have a separate
family
now wait a minute is it rips
babies from
mothers arms already on the
rotation no
hmm rips babies from mother's
arms is
maybe another one I should play
so put a
slash rip straight because
that's
actually the extension with the
same
rips yes yes yes so let's play
amar to
because now we start to hear
the the
kinds of these memes that the
Democrats
are relying on to get people
worked up
and one of them is just
outrageous right
now the president is carrying
out mass
deportation raids across this
country in
each one of our districts right
now the
president is committing human
rights
abuses at the border keeping
children in
cages and having human beings
drinking
out of toilets forces people to
drink
out of toilets now this is I've
been so
debunked yeah and you may be
should repeat what it is what
they're
talking about the various
agencies in
some prisons have discounted as
some
company that makes a toilet
that is also
a sink and a drinking fountain
it's all
part of its giant
stainless-steel one
device it's a floor wax and a
dessert
topping in one yeah it's like
it's it's
a it's actually a pretty
efficient
looking thing it's got a toilet
at the
bottom and then it's got and
then it
extends up to a sink where you
wash your
hands and then and then on the
sink I
believe there's a drinking
fountain hmm
but drinking from that is not
drinking
out of toilets but that's what
dude they
want to promote which is okay
if you
want to be a liar mmm-hmm but
then
nobody seems to care about them
lying
okay let's go to her third
comment that
I clipped this is the president
was
called black people who come
from black
and brown countries shitholes
said here
is that the president is
calling the
people yeah shit holes that
come from
black and brown countries those
people
he's calling them oh yeah let's
just
listen to it again to make sure
that's
where she said this is the
president who
has called black people who
come from
black and brown countries shit
holes
this is like this is gold
comedy gold
from this woman I don't
understand why
people are to pay more
attention to oh
she's so right oh he told her
to go back
to her home I mean and for
those outside
of the country this is this is
quite the
quite the news story here the
distraction of the week
although set up that way by the
president that for the reasons
you
mentioned to make the whole
Democratic
Party look mmm nutty the
Democrats there
they're kind of caught in
between
they're having to defend these
people
these four women specifically
who are
haters let's just start with
that
premise mm-hmm one of them it
the ones
from Washington state is just a
horrible
person and all of them are
pretty pretty
rotten and but they've got to
defend him
cuz they're fellow Democrats
and nobody
you know yeah they're just
they're
they've been dad is the way I
see it
mmm-hmm by Trump and they don't
seem to
they kind of know it but they
can't do
anything about it it's very
strange to
watch also saw a little bit of
posturing
and infighting just just body
language
when a question was asked and
AOC or as
the president now says Cortes
god I
should have thought I forgot
about it
eat last nicest Alexandria ok
co Cortez
Cortez Cortez it's too long
it's too
long I can't say the whole name
I'm just
calling her Cortez so Cortez
AOC wanted
to answer the question and Omar
jumped
in and and physically pushed
her away
who pushed who away Omar pushed
AOC
aside to answer the question it
yeah it
was just a body language thing
but I was
an AOC she looked nervous to a
oh she
didn't seem like she was very
comfortable with the whole the
Four
Horsemen of the horse women of
the
apocalypse on stage she seemed
I watched
that whole thing I I guess I
didn't pick
up on the push aside thing but
I don't
think she was prepared for it I
don't
think she's uncomfortable
necessarily
was being part of this group
cuz I think
her chief of staff the guys
running
everything that social justice
warrior
guy Democrats yes sorry justice
Democrats only get these mixed
up so she
I don't know it's something to
watch for
sure it could be end up as the
squad
could only be three she bails
no that's
doubtful she has no say in the
matter
she's she is she's just doing
what she's
told yeah pretty much
and I'm sad about it because I
thought
oh man you me remember I was
kind of
title you're jacked up you know
that's
your interpretation but I
thought she
was very interesting I liked
her a lot
I'd like to
she just the whole package was
perfect
and yeah but she falls apart
all the
time she just can't do it she's
done me
no I don't like people calling
people
stupid or dumb yeah I know you
don't
know but yeah she's not the
brightest no
bulb in a pack let's talk about
the
impeachment attempt and send
the other
thing which was calling out
Trump for
saying being a racist prick you
know
this is another interest it's
Al Green
who's been trying to file
articles of
impeachment and get a vote on
the floor
for at least a year maybe
longer no no
right from the get-go okay long
mix you
are right soon as Trump's took
office I
think you're right yeah and
articles of
impeachment which can be on
high high
crimes and misdemeanors
not really for being racist I
don't
think it's not a it's not great
look but
I don't think you can be
impeached for
it and you know green you can
being a
racist is a high crime or a
misdemeanor
even Pelosi had to say that the
Brit the
president wasn't racist she
said he said
something racist which I also
checked
with Moe and he laughed to
people don't
think that's racist tizen we're
laughing
do you want us to leave well
then the
economy will collapse that's a
good
point
let's do the impeachment thing
here I've
got well just explain one extra
thing
for people even people in the
United
States there's still many think
you have
a hearing you say impeachment
you vote
in this majority vote and the
president's gone and no that's
not how
it works the only body that can
remove
the president is the Senate in
this
business process and there's
there's no
way they have the votes they
have they
send the articles of
impeachment to the
Senate the Senate has to vote
him out
right
and to make it more difficult
they have
to vote him out by 75% yes yeah
by a
huge majority so that
likelihood I mean
the guy has to really be a
complete
screw-up you I mean I don't
know what
you'd have to get to to get to
that
point so this is just all
showboating
yeah cuz they know there's no
it's not
even close again it's not
impeachable
yeah but okay so I'm waiting
for you I'm
waiting for you it's yeah I got
a cup of
CBS versus NBC Oh kiss talk
about CBS
for a second Norah O'Donnell
finally
came in
now we're gonna I'm gonna put
on my
executive hat cuz it's gonna be
yen okay
how did she look horrible
things that I
do on the show now Norah comes
in Mimi's
here and she's watching it when
she does
her first justice oh my god and
she goes
nuts she thinks wife's just
woman the I
told she's the anchor what what
happened
to the other guy and so Norah
comes on
and then I notice and she's got
her
normal morning show hairdo and
the whole
thing she comes on and and it's
immediately obvious what the
problem is
could you see her she has
unbelievably
dead eyes ooh is this something
new from
Norah you know I think she may
have all
in the morning show they have
our little
little differently they don't
but they
don't have just focus on her
head and it
may not be I mean she's usually
either
glowering on the morning show as
somebody as a Republican I'd
never
noticed the dead eyes before
right
oh it could be the situation
where she
or I just have to die or maybe
they gave
her a drug I have no idea but
you it's
so noticeable and so you look
at it go
and of course her ratings
plummeted way
below Jeff Glor already know so
CPS you
know is having meetings like
something
like what we're talking about
and so this was they got a
problem with
her so the next day she comes
on and she
does a remote report in the
wind this
was your eyes are squinty and
you can't
really see you
the other days and you can't
and they
got her made up differently
were JC is
in the house and he loses his
that is
that and he's thinking it's
some sort of
a deep fake cuz the Facebook's
fake
because of the makeup uh-huh
and I'm
saying no and then the worst
part is
they put her in a kind of a
man's shirt
and they clipped her hair off
and gave
her a pixie cut is there video
or
photographic evidence of this
bad look
put in the next newsletter and
what I
thought was the worst and and
then she
was glowering because it was
they
started everybody else started
off with
all kinds of stories about the
weather
and an Epstein and one thing or
another
but no no she made sure cuz you
know
editor the anchor of a news
hours
typically the editor-in-chief
and so she
started off the whole thing in
the whole
beginning of the show is about
the
border crisis right and and she
had the
guy was they had temporary head
of the
department Homeland Security
and he
seems like a nice guys answers
the
questions the right way and
she's giving
him the stink eye she's been on
almost
every show and I think he's
handled
himself very well under attack
very very
slick and she's giving him the
glower
and then they could cut back to
her in
the field wind blowing on her
and ice
kind of squinting and she just
got that
she's got a look on her face
like she
smelled the world's worst fart
glowering
org our ring I think it's
glowering I
could be wrong but look it up
and it
whatever the case she's got
this stench
in the air look on her face and
her eyes
are squinted and she's got a
pixie
haircut she looks like a dude
there it
is okay you've set it up for us
alright and then well and then
I mean
I'm waiting for the overnights
and that
was just yesterday every time
she's come
on apparently the first night
they
decided they gotta fix
something and so
they've starting to screw with
her I
think she's I began to think
this dude
for today's show I'm almost
thinking
they set her up to fail me so
they
really want to get her out now
huh hmm I
think they may have always
wanted to get
her out she's she stands in the
way I
mean you have to remember
that CBS has become a good boy
good old
boys operation ever since Les
Moonves
was there and and he loaded the
place up
with his friends they can't
like this
woman and she bhavish you had
high hopes
to becoming an anchor it's okay
you want
to be anchor babe we'll put you
up we'll
put you up they put her up there
the everything is wrong didn't
they clip
her hair off just she's not
gonna be
there for more than two months
okay put
it in the red book says they
cut this
hair off into a pixie cut I'm
just
looking at oh man
that's horrible I got to see
this pixie
cut hair I have a copy of the
fly I said
to you I don't have any honey
$0.80 now
but it's like it's possible is
not a
pixie cut but it's a tight
pulled back
yeah I see it now oh yeah it
completely
ruins her face she looks like
Kathie Lee
she look terrible the clip Oh
anyway but
not expressed as much in this
clip but
there's a little bit of it in
here of
her kind of she's really is a
negative
influence on the network in
terms of the
way she puts it the way she
presents the
news is she's not gonna tell me
I'm not
gonna set up I don't blame her
at all
impeachments CBS Donald John
Trump
President of the United States
is unfit
to be President it was a test
vote of
sorts on the appetite for
impeachment
and it turns out the hunger is
low I
think we'll get rid of all this
right
now more than half of House
Democrats
joined all Republicans to table
the idea
for now I do think I'm winning
the
political fight I think I'm
gonna get by
a lot Texas Democrat Al Green
forced the
vote by introducing an
impeachment
resolution it says the
president's
racist comments this week
suggesting
those who may look to the
president like
immigrants should go back to
other
countries qualify as high
misdemeanors
if you did what the president
has done
you would be punished the
president was
referring to these four
Democratic
Congress women who spoke to
Gail Kim
so what is the point of so Al
Green and
they both NBC had the same clip
in
different forms but Al Green
says if you
did something like this you'd be
punished really yeah well you
have to
wash your mouth I've been on
Twitter I
don't think so yeah yeah I mean
you
could nobody's gonna get
punished for
saying you know I guess sent
her back to
Somalia or Sudan whoever she's
from
anyway going look to the
president like
immigrants should go back to
other
countries qualify as high
misdemeanors
if you did what the president
has done
you would be punished the
president was
referring to these four
Democratic
Congress women with who spoke
to Gail
Kings
so what is the point of going
through
the exercise of impeachment
when it
doesn't look like it will go
anywhere
the Watergate class didn't have
the
votes in the Senate side
they didn't function from that
place
they function and putting the
country
first
but Democratic leaders prefer
to wait
and for now most party members
appear to
be with them we have six
committees that
are working on following the
facts in
terms of any abuse of power
obstruction
of justice and the rest that the
president may have engaged in
the
president arriving in North
Carolina for
a rally tonight called the
results of
this vote overwhelming and said
that's
the end of it
but with special counsel robert
muller
set to testify next week Nora
this
wasn't the end of anything God
so tired
of this Muller all right you
know all
he's gonna say is all he's
gonna say is
no agenda is the best podcast
in the
universe I mean he said stick
to the
report so we know that that's
in there
oh that's in there now you can
contrast
that with NBC now CBS's you
know I don't
know what they're thinking what
they're
up to or anything at this point
and the Nora thing is just
baffling it's
just obvious is some you wanted
to get
rid of her and this is one way
to send
somebody upstairs so the point
of
incompetency and they just then
screw
with them make them nervous I
mean you
know it doesn't take a lot if
you're in
broadcasting to have every to
be sir
by people telling everyone
telling you
you're doing it wrong you're no
good
it's pretty much what
broadcasting is
right podcasting Eve are you
kidding me
podcasting
you didn't do that yeah put a
timecode
down as a possibility let's go
with
here's a rundown on NBC no
impeachment
for now as the very vote
Democratic
leaders had hoped to avoid is
forced to
the forefront by a single
lawmaker
congressman Al Green of Texas
he's
arguing the president's racist
attack on
four freshman lawmakers telling
them to
go back to their home countries
has
demonstrated that Donald Trump
is unfit
to be President today we take a
punishment I will vote to
impeach him if
you did what the president has
done you
would be punished but greens
motion was
effectively killed for now in a
vote
late today on this vote the
yeas are 332
that's because despite pressure
for more
than a third of her caucus
House Speaker
Nancy Pelosi has opposed
impeachment
concerned it distracts from
Democrats
policies she prefers to proceed
with a
series of congressional
investigations
that is the serious path that
we are on
not that mr. green is not
serious but
I'll deal with that on the
floor the
president today unfazed
do you think you're winning this
political fight I do think I'm
winning
the blind but I think I'm going
to get
by a lot why I think that they
are not
espousing the views of our
country the
for Congress women I'm not
relishing the
fight I'm enjoying it because I
have to
get the word out to the
American people
and you have to enjoy what you
do now
another escalation tonight
Attorney
General William Bar and commerce
secretary Wilbur Ross voted in
criminal
contempt of Congress an
extraordinary
move by Democrats frustrated
with the
White House's refusal to comply
with
subpoenas about a controversial
citizenship question on the
2020 census
and late tonight we are hearing
from the
president about that
impeachment vote
ahead of his rally in North
Carolina
he's calling it a ridiculous
project
saying it's time for Democrats
to get
back to work
you know I always say every
country gets
the government deserves and
we're really
good we're really getting that
here we
really are I mean from all
sides it's
it's tiring it's dumb it's
childish
unfortunately it's how American
politics
works you know discredit is
credit it's
incompetent discredit call him
a racist
column that it's just back and
forth and
it's it's been that way forever
it's
just now it's amplified because
of
social media and the Internet
in general
more news channels they were
calling
george w bush a racist they
call you
everybody it's Antichrist the
Antichrist
well he might have been that
that's what
we do that's what we do in our
politics
and it's sad and I think it's a
bit
embarrassing honestly you think
the No
Agenda shows you just drop
anything is
political not discuss not at
all in
legalization of dope no I do
have some
things to discuss but yeah I
get this 24
hours a day this is this fight
I like
the Norah O'Donnell stuff I
like I like
hearing that she's on the
outside not
that I like it for her but well
we don't
know this is just my thesis but
I'm all
in ID I know how it works and
if you're
given people remember MTV fired
me
because I wouldn't cut my hair
and I
know because the minute I cut
my hair
that I would have been out cuz
I would
have looked like a penis with a
leather
jacket knuckle under this
hairdo and and
the boy and then they put her
in this
she's like telling you the
photo I have
of her child running in the next
newsletter she looks like a
little boy
alright like she looks like a
no she
looks like a metrosexual guy
from you
know maybe a 20 year old yeah
it's just
terrible I mean you just look
and you
say what are they thinking and
then you
did that's when it dawned on me
I said
oh these guys aren't stupid
they're just
trying to screw with her so
there were a
couple of interesting oversight
committees and so before I say
that I'm
just sticking with the
candidates so I
read the article you know the
one that
about about mayor Pete and
everyone got
all in a huff about that
article and
then the article had to be
pulled and
and the only thing I learned
and we
talked about this in the last
show by
the way the article was dull
the article
was dull and dumb but what I
learned is
as we know in in certain
certain gay
circles gay men they have
nicknames so
Elton John famously his his gay
name is
Sharon and yeah there's a lot
of these
marma Dean I've heard all kinds
of kind
of like funny knits campy and
from this
article I learned that Mayor
Pete's gay
name is Mary its Mary Pete I
thought
that was that was the only
thing of Mary
Mary Mary Pete I don't think
it's right
for us to call a Mary Pete but
it's just
this interesting to know in the
gay
community community or whatever
that is
among boys they call them Mary
so there
were a couple of other
interesting
sessions there was a censorship
and
Google session which I liked
and the one
I thought was most interesting
particularly as it pertains to
being off
the grid and as you know it
said what am
I going on two years now
without a
smartphone
I think it's about almost two
years
isn't it it's been a while yeah
let's
just call it two years and
there's a
there's like an eternity
there's a
misunderstanding a lot of
people think
well you can get dragged the
government
control of course that's not
the issue
the issue is apps the issue is
the
information your phone has on
you such
as how you're holding it where
you are
what location you're at how
often you go
there browser history and these
apps
have a lot of permissions uh I
mean
remember they won't even let
you use
some of these apps but I wrote
a entire
column about all the
permissions that
the Google navigator asks for
they
pretty much own you after you
say yeah
to the maps yeah well the whole
Android
platform is kind of a spying
platform
and when I say spying is it's
really no
you mean spying but that's when
did I
say spying at you mean spying
you don't
mean anything else you're not
meaning
anything else
well I spy I don't mean the
government is spying on you I
mean the
the the it really comes down to
banking
that's what that's that's and
this is
what I want to talk about so
there was a
of the financial Oversight
Committee had
a hearing and they brought in
the one
guy who is the Facebook
representative
for Libre this is the so-called
cryptocurrency that Facebook
wants to
launch and they had this big
white paper
and they have you know 27 28
different
partners and they know they
want to do
digital money and they launched
it in a
kind of a disingenuous I don't
know if
there was them but the
marketing is
everything so the idea is oh
this is a
crypto and it's gonna be no
it's not
it's a centralized token really
that
will represent its in fact it's
more
like an ETF an exchange-traded
fund that
your money is going to be a
part of and
it's just it's you know why and
how and
all of these things came up in
this
session and there were some good
speakers and they had did have
some
crypto experts and like one
young woman
is a Bitcoin expert she had some
interesting things to say but
it all
kind of kicked off before this
session
with a message from the
Secretary of the
Treasury the man whose name is
on the US
dollar minuchin last month the
Libre
Association a consortium of 28
businesses including a Facebook
subsidiary announced that it is
developing a crypto currency
called the
Libre the Treasury Department
has
expressed very serious concerns
that
Libre could be misused by money
launderers and terrorist
financier
crypto currencies such as
Bitcoin have
been exploited to support
billions of
dollars of illicit activity like
cybercrime tax evasion extortion
ransomware illicit drugs human
trafficking many players have
attempted
to use cryptocurrencies to fund
their
malign behavior this is indeed a
national security issue
the United States has been at
the
forefront of regulating
entities that
provide cryptocurrency we will
not allow
digital asset service providers
to
operate in the shadows and will
not
tolerate the use of the
cryptocurrencies
in support of illicit
activities now
with that bitcoin actually took
a pretty
big nose pretty big nose dive
after that
announcement came out and the
President
reiterated that and it's
starting to
climb back up a little bit
since then I
think also since this Facebook
hearing
because the the guy didn't
really do too
well X before we get to that
here's a
representative Patrick McHenry
I think
he's Republican from I want to
say
Kentucky and he was on CNBC
trying to
explain the difference between
a really
the only true cryptocurrency
Bitcoin and
this this this fake you know
boy by
Facebook to to come into this
space and
capture the attention and
everybody's
money the question though
long-term do
you think that regulators and
politicians like yourself will
allow the
emergence and the sort of of
these of
these new types of currencies
if they
don't look a lot like the
regulations
and guardrails that we
currently have
around fiat currency and money
well I
think there's a no capacity to
kill
Bitcoin even the Chinese with
their
firewall and their extreme
intervention
their society could not kill
Bitcoin so
a distributed ledger full and
open that
has in the essence of Bitcoin
as a first
mover in this space the
developer this
technology of this ask you a
question
related to that because because
bitcoin
is fallen in a large one or is
you can't
kill Bitcoin but new iterations
of this
that are trying to mimic it
that are not
fully distributed that are not
fully
open there are different
mechanisms to
kill it you say you can't kill
Bitcoin
and to some degree I agree with
you and
some degrees I don't if you
said right
now that coinbase cannot accept
us
money from an American citizen
if you
said that any of these wallets
can't
accept money you would affect
I'm not
saying you'd shut down Bitcoin
Bitcoin
would exist somewhere and it
would be
sort of in a sort of a dark web
kind of
situation but it effectively
would make
it very very difficult for me
for the
mainstream to use it sure but I
mean how
mainstream is that right now if
it ever
gets me instrument ever gets to
escape
velocity does Congress do
regulators say
you know what actually and in
the same
way that you're looking at
Libra as
closely as you are and this is
gonna
happen at the g7 meeting as
well do
people say you know what we
can't have
that Bitcoin will live in the
shadows
but it boy it's not gonna live
in the
mainstream and that's the
question I
think I have and I think it's
the
question whether that that
Bitcoin
investors have and that's why
what why
the price of it has come down
in the
past
literally 48 hours you're
talking about
a something that was a joke ten
years
ago that people were giving
away for
free not a joke but people are
giving
away for free is now trading
$10,000 if
21 million coins but it's a
Bitcoin is
what Libre and Facebook and and
corporates are trying to mimic
okay so
now you have kind of a
background on
what's going on I don't know we
don't
need to talk about the validity
of
Bitcoin or not even though I'm a
maximalist but they get this
hearing
underway and it was pretty much
we did
expect a bunch of uninformed
boobs
sitting on the dais asking
stupid
questions for hours on and even
aoc
Alexandria Ocasio Cortes was
there with
her obligatory nut job question
well
currently the Liebherr
Association is
governed by Facebook uber eBay
Spotify
Visa thrive Capital Union Square
Ventures and a handful of
nonprofits as
well as some other partners
correct it
is correct what they
democratically
elected I mean this is the kind
of shit
do you know what's going on
woman no
there's one guy who yeah there
was a lot
of that actually Talib was
chairing the
the committee for a while which
was also
interesting she would nerve
I'm trying to make it off
proper and
cutting everybody off on time
in purple
there was one congressman
Davidson I
gotta look up where he's from
and he
knows very well what he's
talking about
I think there's a crypto caucus
actually
a cotton it must be Republicans
although
I'm not sure of the total
makeup of it
but you know there's some
people who do
understand what they're talking
about
and one of the people there to
testify
as a woman named Melton de
mirros and I
think she's had a couple of
successful
Bitcoin ventures and she
definitely
knows what she's talking about
and they
had a fun little back-and-forth
talk
about Omar with her shitholes
highlighted a lot of background
information about about bitcoin
and
about the you know immutable
distributed
ledger and the benefits of that
decentralization versus
centralization
you know a lot of people in
this space
will use a phrase that you may
be
familiar with there's Bitcoin
and then
there's shit coin are you
familiar with
that phrase and what people
might mean
by that I am so could you
elaborate on
how people would differentiate
the two
absolutely I think the idea
here is
Bitcoin has had a long track
record it
the network has been operating
for ten
years the Bitcoin network has
been
tested the decentralized nature
of the
Bitcoin protocol has been
tested people
have tried to co-opt control of
Bitcoin
source code and push it in
certain
directions that benefit their
business
models and this network and this
protocol and it's open source
governance
have withstood that test is
there a
central authority they could
dilute the
value of Bitcoin no is there a
central
authority that could filter
transactions
at Bitcoin no that can only be
done
through the products and
services that
people utilize to access the
network
like coinbase for example
absolutely
that is a US company that is
regulated
based on the facts of what its
business
model is with Bitcoin you can
still
engage in peer-to-peer
transactions like
cash correct absolutely and
because open
source code you could have a
wallet
correct all these features are
different
than one of many of the things
that
people call colloquially
I just love hearing that I like
hearing
shit coin I do it's been around
for a
long time but finally it's
reached
Congress so the people are
trying to
understand what's going on and
none of
them have it right and what's
really
happening didn't actually come
up and so
I want to try and explain what
I think
is happening with the two clips
from a
guy named Brett King and he
spoke last
year at a bank a a bankers
conference in
Germany and he calls it Bank
4.0 and the
whole idea is to onboard to get
people
into banking without any
physical
infrastructure and to use the
the same
type of tracking that we've
been talking
about the spying to suggest
services for
you at the right moment and of
course
when we say services there's
really only
three services that banking
provides I'm
generalizing but it's storing
your money
so a place to store the value
that you
have and whatever money whatever
represents money it's for
transferring
that for to someone else or to
purchase
something and credit and credit
is the
big one you're not gonna get
any credit
from Bitcoin this is what Libra
is
ultimately about Libra is
fighting there
in a fight to become the
competitor -
really - Jack Maz ant finance
so in
China you have we pay and
what's the
other one Alibaba pay I guess
and pretty
much ninety ninety six or
ninety seven
percent of all scientists agree
that
that's all the money is done
through
those two payment systems and
that is
where the social the score
comes into
play and the social score is
tied into
these payment apps which I'm
sure
Facebook would love nothing
more that
when you have a totalitarian
government
like the Chinese there's
examples I
think was in a vice documentary
where a
guy Jay walked and
facial-recognition
picked up that it was him and
within 20
seconds they deducted the fine
straight
from his we pay and he noticed
that on
his phone and it's a good
deterrent
because he's not going to
jaywalk
anymore but it's obviously
dystopian
very creepy but what this is
really
about where the money is is in
credit
everybody lives off of credit
in America
for sure but pretty much around
the
world and I think that the end
game is
to get you into as much I think
has
always been the game to get you
into as
much debt so give you as much
credit as
you can actually afford and
squeeze it
down so you can just you just
make in
those monthly payments because
there's a
lot of money you can still
squeeze out
of people here's this Brett
King guy
talking about an example of how
this
what he calls contextual
banking will
work so he's not thinking about
utility
as it changes banking becomes
highly
contextual and a great example
of this
might be credit access for
day-to-day
banking where I walk into a
grocery
store and I fill up my cart and
I fill
it up and I go to the checkout
and then
they swiped my card and the
cashier says
I'm sorry sir it's been declined
yeah some of your customers may
have had
this problem and so then you go
fishing
for another card well let me
give you
this one can you try this one
what about
if we didn't think about that
as a
product based process what
about if you
think when you walk in the
grocery store
if I know you don't have enough
money to
do your grocery shopping I
present you
with an offer for credit access
right
there and then to solve that
problem I
don't wait for you to get to the
checkout this is experiential
design of
this so then we come back to
the role of
advisors because when it comes
to
financial services we've had
this view
predicated over the last 30 or
40 years
that the best way to get the
best bang
for your buck in investment
terms is you
need to have a human involved
you need
to get that advice but
technology is
also going to change the way we
think of
advice in financial services in
fact
probably the most common form
of advice
our customers will be faced
with in the
future from financial services
is just
something as simple as this hey
Siri can
I afford to go out for dinner
tonight
so the
the way the credit card
companies work
is very slow and cumbersome to
get to
this point is why we need to
have
digital money you know so if
you are
getting close to your credit
limit but
you still pay on time what
you'll notice
is the credit card company says
you've
been such a good boy we're
gonna give
you an extra $10,000 credit go
ahead and
go nuts you can afford it
that's all
good so they want this in real
time and
they're competing I think a
they're
really worried about Alibaba
Ali pay
which is run by aunt financial
that's
Jack Maas company but they're
fighting
against Google and we get to
Google
after this next clip Apple is
trying
although Apple doesn't seem to
really
have the whole all the pieces
together
I need a banker on board yes
the fastest
scaling financial services
organizations
in the world today are digital
that
enables them to get the scale
very very
rapidly and the biggest
financial
services organization in the
world by
2030 is going to be ant
Financial as a
result of that they're going to
be worth
twice what ICBC is worth by the
in the
next decade they're going to
have about
three billion customers and
they're
going to be doing lending
investment
gonna be doing all of these
things
powered by the fact they have
three
billion people connected on a
super
wallet architecture over a
hundred
countries and this is they're
well on
the way to this already they've
got over
three quarters of a billion
customers on
their platform right now
they're just on
a partnership with Paytm in
India which
is gonna bring them another
half a
billion
they've got partnerships with
cacao and
South Korea G cash in the
Philippines
they tried to buy MoneyGram in
the
United States and Trump stopped
that
because he was worried about
the Chinese
coming in but they'll have
another shot
at that I didn't know about the
money
gram that's Alibaba tried to
buy them in
a and that the thing is good
that Trump
stopped that but they acted for
Trump
but the real bad actors by the
way no
other president would have done
that
because they haven't got a clue
about
finance you're absolutely right
I didn't
even know he did it
I heard it from this why how
would you
know why would they anybody
even mention
street media that would be crazy
asked I wouldn't know so to
wrap this up
Google is the one that I think
is we
really this is a facebook Hail
Mary
everyone sees the Google danger
Google
is so entrenched in everybody's
life
they really didn't know me even
if I'm
Oda they still have a lot of
information
on me is because they track
everywhere
with you use Google or not and
they as
we've discussed before are the
majority
stakeholder and Credit Karma so
when you
think of ant Financial and how
you have
this social score which
penalizes you
for not being a good person or
or any
type of moving violation you
might it
might make and of course
rewards you
when you do something good I
can tell
you that is now in place and
and I think
it is the vantage 4.0 score
which is
what Credit Karma is based on
we we've
talked about the FICO score
which is
still used by most major
mortgage
lenders and auto finance years
which is
compiled from very different
very stodgy
very old data sets
whereas Credit Karma is basing
your
trustworthiness on your
timeliness of
paying your utility bills and
others
certain types of things and it
is
modifying people's behavior to
be better
so they can give them more
credit I know
I've said this before but I
went looking
at Credit Karma and trying to
figure out
how they tie in just looking
for some
more information on on what
their future
plans are and it was much
easier for me
to just go to the public
marketing side
and just grab a couple of their
YouTube
videos to show you not only
where their
head is but how people think
about their
credit score again this has
nothing to
do with your actual what used
to be
important FICO score this is
really well
you'll hear these Millennials
in this
Credit Karma informational
video hey
everyone welcome to credit
crunch where
we tackle commonly asked credit
today's episode is all about
credit
scores and what they mean we're
hitting
the streets of San Francisco
with our
financial experts to find out
more
Jennifer thanks Kaylee let's
see what
people know about their credit
scores do
you know what any credit score
is yeah
of course I know what a credit
score is
do you guys know what a credit
score is
unfortunately yes I guess it's
like a
score that credit agencies gave
you it
measures your creditworthiness
if you're
a cool guy or not a credit
score is a
three-digit number that
determines
whether or not I can get a car
it's
determined of whether you gonna
get a
loan for anything what is their
credit
score measure how much
credibility you
have with borrowing money it's
almost
like a judgment of your ethical
character like how well you
utilize your
credit essentially how much the
people
that's giving you money trust
you to pay
it back who do you think uses
credit
score's
mortgage companies credit card
companies
some jobs do I think they
evaluate the
risk as far as are you gonna
pay them
back credit scores can be
confusing
simply put they're what lenders
often
use to gauge whether they can
trust you
to repay your debt on time the
higher
your credit score the better
there are
many factors that could affect
your
credit score thanks for watching
everyone he liked our video
give it a
thumbs up and subscribe to
credit
Karma's Channel
so you heard it you heard it
there
your general your character in
general
you can't get a job and yes
that is what
this is being used for they're
tying
anyone to it would this has
been used
for this purpose we've talked
about on
the show at least five years
ago long
before the thing happened in
China yes
but now with all the data that
they're
collecting from you from your
driving
habits are you speed it's all
we only
discussed it really in terms of
insurance I think typically but
now it's
going to no no we talked about
it in
terms of getting a job because
I think
you're absolutely right but now
Google
is doing something very
interesting they
are launching a lot of different
services or buying into
services just
outright acquiring or becoming
majority
shareholder without their name
on it so
Credit Karma is the big one got
some
outrageous like 70 million
people are
using this and they've groomed
70
million people into doing
certain things
health ties into this your your
health
data is in your phone it's in a
little
health store and of course
people go I
don't care I'm just gonna give
it give
that Credit Karma
app the access to that they can
take a
look at that so all of these
things are
coming down to creating the
perfect
slaves who will function
exactly the way
that this bank I'll just call
it the
Google Bank wants you to be a
good
person adhere to the speed
limits so
that they can continue to give
you more
credit and squeeze you all the
way down
until I don't know until you
just have
to go work for Google I don't
know what
the end game is
but the social credit score is
already
in America and it's surfaced
for now as
Credit Karma and that's what
this is
about I think you made the
argument that
the social score or whatever
it's called
in China hmm has been here
actually you
already been here and is just
now
popping up as it was bit
predates China
of course it does but China
took the
money and run I mean the China
has the
perfect government for this
kind of
stuff to work yes
the government's all over aunt
pay and
financial systems so you know
that's
yeah we haven't gotten to the
point
where you can't get on an
airplane cuz
you have a bad credit score no
but I
don't see why it why it
couldn't happen
and it's really not that
important
because that's a social issue
that that
our government isn't set up the
way
China's is but to benefit the
Google
Bank yeah they're going to make
you do
things so that you have the
right credit
to do certain things and it
could come
to that absolutely or will give
you you
know you've been driving too
fast so
we're just not going to give
you credit
for for that car you can have
credit for
a different car and there's an
older car
there's lots of ways around it
John I'm
just saying when people 150
million
around the world for the second
time in
as many years installed the
idiotic face
app ed to make yourself
the old witch thank you very
much I have
no desire to make myself look
old yeah
this what's in the news oh boy
Russians
just writing that bullshit
oh it's they're stealing your
photos of
bullshit this thing is filled
with
trackers that's all that it is
it's placing advertising IDs
it's
tracking it if you don't want
to look at
just the permissions you want
to look at
their privacy policy and that's
where
you can see how they share
everything
share with with the data
brokers it's
that is a complete spy app and
everyone's all focused on the
the
picture part of it it's
unimportant it's
getting it I thought it was a
fantastic
ploy well it is just as good as
the one
that Cambridge analytics did
with the
phoney baloney how smart are
you quiz or
whatever was just the same
thing exactly
these stupid questions I'll
just do this
and click and click and click
and click
and click and yeah crazy and
when you
look at what what they do is
they they
continuously monitor your
browser
tracking even if you delete the
app I'm
not sure about iOS but on
Android it
still leaves specific
identifiers on
your phone that the tracking
companies
will be able to use and they're
gonna
use it for this what do you
think
they're selling it to they're
selling it
to banks that's the main those
are the
guys how much money is the fine
isn't
the financial sector the only
real
industry we have anymore in
America
isn't that what we do now it's
what it
is so that's why you need to
get rid of
your smartphone and it's not
just for
yourself it's for everybody
else and of
course I know I'm just I'm
every but I
know I'm swinging away at the
windmills
because every you know the
Millennials
today are I DC I don't care I
don't care
they know everything anyway I
don't care
well I'm here to tell you it
I'm here to
tell you the new
generation you are setting
yourselves up
for a big big fucking and it's
going to
hurt you already have your 30
40 $50,000
worth of student debt this is
only in
fact how much you pay back on
your
student debt will be determined
by how
you participate in the Credit
Karma
system well you know we see
that you
don't really have a job you're
kind of
doing some work but you spent a
lot of
alcohol now we think that you
can
probably remove some of the
alcohol
expenditure and we're gonna up
the
percent of up your payment that
you need
to pay monthly fewer lardy man
I was
buying for a party I don't
drink that
much my time-coded that so that
is the
danger and that's that's where
we're at
and you know so it's not going
to be
like China it's going to be
much worse
you're going to be a true slave
of of
these your own Bank of your
bank there
you go be warned people
everyone quiet
good I think there was a very
good
presentation thank you I have a
question
about Millennials just before
we take
our break but you have a
question for
you about your presentation
first sure
the sure thing your Bitcoin
maximalist
what happened to the Bitcoin
Fork oh you
mean Bitcoin cash I don't know
what it
was called I can't remember
anymore but
it was that we talked about it
when it
happened it was a Bitcoin Fork
yeah what
happened to it it's still
working work
yeah well I mean I think it's
currently
it's three or four hundred
dollars
Bitcoin cash but that's a shit
coin it's
not the same it's not the same
it
they're really truly is only one
cryptocurrency everything else
has its
own validity but you know you
the
bitcoin is the indestructible
one no one
can mess it up
Bitcoin cash is three hundred
and
thirteen dollars currently huh
let's get
the question I had you've got
Millennials in the house oh
yeah they're
crawling all over the place
when they
watch television like movies I
would say
specifically your TV series
do they have the kid the closed
captions
on generally no but everyone
said well
they do and I usually turn them
off but
they don't I know what you're
saying cuz
I have seen this butchered this
phenomenon where there was once
there
was a period of time where they
had to
kept the closed captions on for
some
reason I'm well I do you ask
because I have that here at
home and I
this is the what you just said
is my
experience as I flip on to watch
something and I got to turn off
the
closed captions because they're
always
turned back on and I think this
may have
started with Game of Thrones but
Millennials there's another I
think that
they're so Auto buddy in this
house is
what is a good game of Thrones
person I
think a lot of Millennials are
so
occupied with or so distracted
by other
screens and other things
they're doing
they can't just sit there and
take it in
and turn the sound up and enjoy
an
experience no they have to be
doing
something else to say yeah so
they're
reading they're not getting
seventy
percent of the enjoyment is
that high it
may just be me but I'm kind of
throwing
this out there to see if this
is a thing
I've identified this as a thing
and I
wanted to know you know how
widespread
it is it's cropped up yes it
has well
with that I'd like to thank you
for your
courage and say in the morning
to you
the man who put the C in the
shit coin
John spelled with a see yeah
well in the
morning you mr. Adam Curry also
in the
morning all ships to see boots
on the
ground feet in the air subs in
the water
and all the Dames tonight's out
there
hello trolls in the morning to
all of
you that's right they are there
they're
in the troll room no agenda
stream comm
is where you control along with
every
single episode we do them live
we do it
live no agenda stream comm
which is not
just for this show you can
listen before
the show after show 24/7
there's always
someone in the troll room
there's always
some show going on and it's
it's a it's
a fabulous little community and
it's pretty damn free and open
I'd say
check it out also in the
morning at 2:00
let me see where was my and
here we go
no this is not working for some
reason
what happened here am I
supposed to say
in the morning this is weird
it's not
it's not going to the right
place who
did the artwork for stop it who
did the
artwork for for episode 11:55
let me see
no agenda show calm yes okay
this was
done by Mike Riley
I don't think inside a piece
from Mike
in a little bit and no a couple
weeks
ago we had one didn't hold Mike
Riley
piece we brought forward I
believe or
something yeah he's saying well
maybe
I'm thinking of my newsletter
because I
keep putting up Riley pieces in
there
well he had a pretty funny
piece which
was the the moon landing the
lunar
module there and at a buffer
Serb it
says buffering and there's a
buffering
indicator because of course
well we
talked a lot about the
transmission of
the signals from the moon down
to the
television signals down to the
moon and
the Lost Tapes so it fit
perfectly with
the episode thank you very much
Mike
just one of the many ways that
people
participate in their value for
value
network you can add value to
the show in
many many ways and certainly
our artists
at No Agenda art generator comm
do a
great job with that and we
thank Mike
and everybody else and and we
also thank
our executive producers and
associate
executive producers I want to
say
something about the art not you
mention
it because we appreciate art
and we have
this our theories about what
benefits
the show just as standalone
stuff is a
different way of looking at the
world
yeah but it's also for the
artists cues
a lot of you know they just a
lot of
work for them because that's
the list of
the show which is on the real
time and
then gets cranked something out
it's
like speed art
but as an 8th floor just like
speed
dating when you don't get lucky
at the
end of the day you don't get
lucky at
the end of their speed dating
from what
I understand
so it's like it's good for the
brain to
try to conceive art interesting
point
and because it's an exercise
because
it's not I mean it's not normal
it's
nonlinear thinking to come up
with these
art these art pieces and and to
get good
at it
like Martin JJ did out of the
blue after
working for years and years
it's a it's
an exercise in you know kind of
nonlinear thinking that once
you achieve
it you get it's just very
satisfying I'm
absolutely convinced to that
okay well
our artists should let us know
if the
how they feel about these
things it's
addicting Roland Roland costing
Costigan
err what do you think instead
Castaing
er could roll into Stanger
Castagna

during my many hours of driving

thank you here are some by the
way I
have a product I gotta look it
up
because I just bought it if
you're gonna
go on a road trip you should
take this
with you it is and I'll get to
details
Ranch Hand well I'm not saying
you
shouldn't take that but there's
I so I
have this we have a number of
cars in
one in this old Volkswagen that
which is
battery seems to go dead all
the time so
I bought this thing I thought
it was a
joke it's a small battery it's
the size
of a pack who like three packs
is four
oh yeah you stick it into the
cigarette
lighter and it starts the car
no so but
you can charge them to see
really so I'm
looking at all my battery
chargers they
get different battery charge
they always
have the same like a 2 amp
trickle and a
10 amp boost and a 50 amp max
pussy
stuff that's that's how you
start the
cars with the thing you plug in
a wall
yeah this is a 600 amp battery
amp yes
okay so you take this and it's
a little
bitty thing man it's just this
lot of
electronics in here that make
it 600
amps yeah you stick it on any
I'm
telling any car and just roars
to life
you sure it's not amp our amps
600 amps
okay
damn and it does that for a
second thing
you got to charge it up again I
guess no
no it'll do 30 starts before
you have to
charge it up again it's a
miracle
okay here's my response in the
met in
the mail from from Amazon
uh-huh I said
oh I'm sending this back this
ain't
gonna start nothin and you know
can't
well give it a try you know I
go out to
the battery's dead so I just
hook it up
and the batteries kind of you
know it
has a boost
what kind of Volkswagen is this
it's an
old bug a beetle okay Mexican
or US made
in Mexico so it has the flat
screen
doesn't have a flat so I mean
the the
I'm sorry my mistake
the the calm concave windscreen
the ones
in Mexico were flat I think I'm
just a
newer car okay take it mm oh oh
oh I
thought it was classic okay I'm
sorry
well alright why is the battery
dead on
that thing that shouldn't be
happening
doesn't be it's not driven
enough so
anyways for this both I saw
hook this
thing up saying I don't know
boom the
thing starts up now restart it
starts up
violently so I get the thing
off you
know and I run it and it's fine
now but
I was really looking at this
thing as oh
another piece of crap from
China I'm
gonna send it back and it's not
a piece
of crap right I mean it is from
China
obviously but it's not a piece
of crap
by any means and it's just a
remarkable
and it's a little bitty thing
and it
also has this phone chargers
built into
it which is another thing you'd
want to
take it on the road for you
want to have
this on the road in your trunk
if you're
driving across them do you know
what the
name of this product is so we
can tell
everybody don't know I don't
I'm not
gonna say the name so I can get
lots of
emails asking me the name okay

will cuz I don't want the
emails I just
bitched about anyway so he's on
okay was

genie energy right and I guess
when we
were talking about it he

February
complaining that he donated
$1,100 and

being
mentioned so he apparently this

speaking of old jalopies or

leaving your jalopy at home the
e-scooter revolution continues
in Austin
Texas we've been the pilot city
em and
although I like the idea of
this kind of
mobility it hasn't worked out
very well
for a lot of people because the
rules
are unclear and the roads have
not set
fort no one's prepared for it
and you
are getting killed there are at
least
eight new lawsuits against
scooter
companies in Austin all filed
within the
last several days last week
riders filed
seven separate suits in Travis
County
against bird uber and lime
another
lawsuit was filed this week
they all claim negligence
saying Reiter
suffered injuries because of
problems
with faulty scooter equipment
one suit
claims
at metro bus ran over a rider's
arm when
he was thrown from a scooter
just wait
until they all figure out that
the end
user License Agreement you
agreed to
when you signed up with the app
that
completely indemnifies those
companies
from any of your lawsuits yep
cuz that's how it works that's
how you
do it
somebody cracks the code on
that yeah
this will continue somebody
does crack
the code and one of these guys
gets sued
out of existence then that'll
be the end
of it big news the way I see it
is this
has been the same way with
software the
courts have upheld two EULA's
which are
onerous and and probably
illegal well
they've been held up by the
clearly not
clearly not illegal if the
courts upheld
them well clearly not illegal
if the
courts upheld them although as
far as
I'm concerned they're well
they're
definitely onerous well it's
I'm telling
you I had I went to the spin
class the
other day
and so now I have to write you
know
drive downtown and park I'm
such a I'm
such a suburbanite now and I
had a
little lunch there Taverna on
what is
that second street and I get up
and I'm
done I walk away and there's
that
there's now there's homeless
people
standing right and I'm sorry
pan handlers I have no idea if
these
people are homeless as a
panhandler they
say man you got something and
said no I
don't do that anymore and he
starts
yelling and I'm gonna kill you
and kill
your family and it's like oh
yeah yeah I
just get this on tape and then
taking
the City Council they don't
care okay
then you know the City Council
meetings
I find that are always on
Thursdays this
is very annoying and if you
want on a
Thursday day yes they are on
Thursday
day and if you want to speak
they only
allow ten people of the public
to speak
at each meeting and you know
there's a
calendar you sign up well that
signed up
forever you can't get it on
that it's
undemocratic here in Austin it's
undemocratic
well I'm glad that city had the
experience of a guy cussing you
out for
not giving him money there you
go
there's your future there's
your future
dystopia yep but no tents on
the on the
sidewalks yet though even
though it's
legal I haven't seen those yet
but it is
coming and Austin is going down
with
that meanwhile over in the Euro
land
well I guess they got their
gender
balance all set up as they
voted in
thunder lay is that her name
you see I think that's her name
isn't it
Ursula that's right
Ursula von der Leyen and she
has been
confirmed as the next president
of the
Starfleet Command known as the
EU
Commission right well the magic
number
first LaVonda line was to get
374 m EPS
on site 383 did get on side
with her she
made the the threshold by just
nine
votes there was a lot of
promises made
in the speech she gave to
Parliament
earlier on Tuesday morning she
has she
made a lot of promises about
green
policies she wanted to try and
reenact
some instead she promised far
too much
things that she can't possibly
deliver
but those were the promises she
made she
also made promises on the
dublin treaty
to do with asylum in the EU in
who has
the responsibility to take care
of those
who seek asylum here again
another big
issue that many people want to
see
reform on but does she have the
ability
to do it she made those
promises anyway
so she got those people on side
that
were needed initially we had
thought
that the greens were going to
vote
against her that the far left
and the
far right in the parliament
were going
to vote against her it does
seem like
she might have one round some
of those
green voters this is what
Ursula von der
Leyen have to say though as she
accepted
the role as the first woman to
be the
European Commission President I
thank
all the members of parliament
who
decided to vote for me today
but my
message so all of you is let us
work
together constructively
the endeavor is a united a
strong Europe
thank you very much right
Ursula fun to lay on that's her
name
next role room so finally a
German once
again running the German Empire
shocker
from steam amounts the the
Dutch guy who
a lot thought would be the
front-runner
and we hoped so because he was
now we
know the guy I know I know the
guy I was
like maybe I gonna interview
with him
someday so he was cutout sure
he's not
German he's no he's not even
close he
does something stupid the other
day oh
yeah he said now all of a
sudden he's
got a big mouth I guess he's
out he's I
don't know if he has any
position you
know I don't know if he I think
he's
just out altogether for the
time being I
have to look that up but now
he's got a
big mouth and say whatever he
wanted so
now he's doing interviews about
brexit
and how well the it was crazy
when they
came over they had no plan here
is we
thought about they're so
brilliant they
will have some in some vault
somewhere
Westminster there will be you
know Harry
Potter light book with all the
tricks
and all the things they need to
do but
then the first time I saw public
utterances but David Davis and
I saw him
not coming not negotiating
grandstanding
elsewhere oh my god they
haven't got a
plan they haven't got a plan
that was
really shocking frankly because
then the
damage if you don't have a plan
and the
you know we see it that time's
running
out you don't have a plan you
know it's
like a lance corporal Jones you
know
don't panic don't panic running
around
like idiots so he makes a
reference
there do you know the reference
Lance
Corporal Jones don't panic
don't panic
no I do not it's a 1960s TV
show known
as dad's army
only people 50 and above who
lives in
the UK or MIT well the
Netherlands Air
Tattoo would know what that is
what is
he thinking this la that's a
callback
des obscure sixties TV show
which wasn't
even all that funny oh man no
business
is bad I mean I use a few I do
I'll do a
callback not that bad but I'll
do some
callback to some that's really
something
that I just wanted to
deconstruct I
don't have an opinion really
one way the
other but there's a lot of
misinformation about the
first-responders fund that jon
stewart
has been around talking about
and trying
to he's been in Congress he
spoke he's
very one that that the one that
the
squad voted against did the
squad vote
against it I think most of them
did yeah
well here he is on Fox News
complaining
bitterly after the latest round
of
discussions of this bill yeah
this is
what the Washington Post says
about this
fund this is the fund provides
money to
those who have contracted
diseases that
have been linked to exposure to
toxic
debris in the aftermath of
September
11th attacks which we knew
under current
law the fund is scheduled to
stop taking
claims in December 2020 the new
legislation would extend the
program for
seven decades at an estimated
cost of
ten point two billion for the
first
decade here's how Senator Paul
said it
on the floor today any new
spending that
we are approaching any new
program
that's going to have the
longevity of
7080 years should be offset by
cutting
spending that's less valuable
we need to
at the very least have this
debate I
will be offering up an
amendment if bill
should come to the floor
but until then I will object
Jon Stewart
your reactions it's it's
absolutely
outrageous and you'll pardon me
if I'm
not impressed in any way by
Rand Paul's
fiscal responsibility virtues
signaling
Rand Paul presented tissue paper
avoidance of the 1.5 trillion
dollar tax
cut that added hundreds of
billions of
dollars to our deficit and now
he stands
up at the last minute after 15
years of
blood sweat and tears from the
9/11
community to say that it's all
over now
now we're going to balance the
budget on
the backs of the 9/11 first
responder
community Brett this is about
what kind
of society we have at some
point we have
to stand up for the people who
have
always stood up for us and at
this
moment in time maybe Kenneth
stand up
for themselves due to their
illnesses
and their injuries and what
Rand Paul
did today on the Senate was
outrageous
he is a guy that put us in
hundreds of
billions of dollars in debt he
was the
51st vote on that cut and now
he's going
to tell us that a billion
dollars a year
over ten years is just too much
for us
to handle you know there's some
things
that they have no trouble
putting on the
credit card
but somehow when it comes to
the 9/11
first responder community the
cops the
firefighters the construction
workers
the volunteers the survivors
all of a
sudden man we got to go through
this so
here's the problem I have with
what's
going on here cuz I just really
wanted
to look into it it is not the
first
responders fund it's not what
it's
called it's the 9/11 Victims
Fund and
you and I discussed a great
length that
we remember this going on in
the early
days of the show when they
brought in
that's the special as a name
there's a
near the manager this special
manager of
the 9/11 Victims Fund and he
had seven
and a half billion dollars to
hand to
victims of 9/11 which includes
anyone
who was injured killed etc
harmed
physically by the by 9/11
attacks
including first responders is
not just
first responders also people a
lot of
Wall Street people perished
during that
so he's making it sound as if
it's only
about the first responders and
and this
is not
a standalone bill this has been
in place
and for the past 18 years
people were
paid an average of $200,000 per
year and
this edition which reopen to
years takes
it up to 20
92 20 89 I think is in addition
to us
code for Oh 101 and what is
happening
now is descendants so the the
way it's
set up now is you can no longer
submit
any claims after 2020 the bill
opens
that up and allows descendents
of the
victims of 9/11 to also
participate in
the program the estimation is
it could
wind up being five hundred
thousand
people who ultimately over this
90 year
period will be receiving two
hundred
thousand dollars per year in
compensation which will be
adjusted and
that's also new will be
adjusted for
inflation at what point in so
the
taxpayers are paying for this
it's not
just for first responders it's
for all
victims and their descendants I
think
Rand Paul has a valid point as
to well I
mean that's that's what I don't
think he
he worded it correctly but at
what point
do we stop I mean where does it
stop and
is the American taxpayer are we
supposed
to be the only ones for this I
understand
first respite a different
response to
the first responder fund I
think we need
to pay firemen and policemen a
hell of a
lot more than we're paying you
maybe pay
them 200 grand a year instead
of doing
that after the fact but this
there's
some dissin validity to it and
I think
Jon Stewart's not being
completely
honest by calling it the first
responders fund it's just not
true and
there's a lot of very wealthy
families
who are who are receiving this
money as
well
and from you know a lot of Wall
Street
people so I don't really have a
an issue with us certainly not
the
amount of money a hundred
billion over
the ages being a dishonest on
purpose or
you think he's being misled or
you think
just being naive or a do-gooder
I mean
what is the but what is his
motive I
really don't know that's why
it's kind
of baffling to me because
there's a lot
of people who let me just take
this and
descendants of slavery let's
give them
some money you know it's at a
certain
point where does it end and
where does
it start and what what are the
rules of
the road for competent
compensation of
these types of issues or is it
to shut
people up I mean that I'm just
saying
it's a conspiracy thought keep
people
but shutting up about anything
that
happened because that is if you
accept
the money you can't you
couldn't you
can't do anything you can't
take anyone
to court it's over and I
remember this
because we talked at great
length it was
a it was difficult I remember
the guy
was trying to I was his name is
a famous
guy who came in to who was
giving up the
initial seven point six billion
dollars
it's just you know something's
off about
this and I haven't quite
figured it out
but Stuart must have some
something in
this besides just first maybe
he's just
blind to the what's really
going on and
why does he not call it the
Victims Fund
why is he keep saying it's only
first
responders when it's just not
and that's
a rhetorical quite really don't
have an
answer well I think it's
something
you're gonna have to watch
through it
out there just for people to to
think
about but it's it's very odd
it's very
odd and Rand Paul of course now
looks
like a total dick because it
the way he
always looks like a total dick
it's fine
he does have that call you know
just you
know but as a society we also
need to
say maybe it's better to pay
people more
for dangerous jobs they do but
you know
the victims should we just go
to Saudi
Arabia sue me can we get the
money from
them seeing is most of them
were from
Saudi Arabia most of the so
called hijackers I think that's
a good
idea
yeah it's like why does it have
to come
out of taxpayers pockets for
descendants
for the negative longer than I
will be
alive you know I had I mean I
didn't
have physical harm I had all
kinds of
issues I I did an entire
helicopter
company went down the tubes
after 9/11
yeah I was like all right you
know
anyway again I have I have no
no really
befuddled
I am befuddled this is a moment
of show
befuddlement I am befuddled by
this
maybe someone can help no I'd
like to
talk I'd like to talk to have a
bunch of
clips about the incident that
took place
in Congress that to me was very
historical okay
there was a number of things
that I've
never seen happen before um
there was it
was just it was funny in some
ways this
was a Pelosi comes out and
calls Donald
Trump a racist probably I agree
with
this mm-hmm
they basically stopped a show
for two or
three hours they just stopped
the show
because of one guy's saying to
take her
words down she leaves the place
she's
not supposed to she violates
the rules
of this of the of the of the
house over
and over again and so does
everybody
else it's being violated
constantly and
the guy was who's that who's
running the
show the her at the time yeah
Evans I
thinks his name he's from nice
from st.
Louis he's a st. Louis said he
gave up
he threw down the gate Rudy I
have that
on tape the gravel down to
gravel but
let's listen to the how that
part
started well actually let's
start with
I'm a bunch of clips here now
can I just
say something I saw the whole I
saw the
whole thing I don't think a
single
so-called news program showed
the actual
clip of Pelosi violation they
all showed
the end where people are
getting all
rowdy but when she actually
called the
president of races they didn't
air that
most of the time no what's the
point the
problem is they gave her one
minute fact
they have their let's start
with the
Pelosi clip they gave her one
minute all
right give her one minute she
talked for
seven
minutes yak yak yak yak yak and
I kind
of have it summarized and then
I yeah
this is the main incident so
she's
talking ously clipped it quite
a bit I
sped it up and my favorite the
guy got
the guy at the end and then
they shut
down to shut down the house and
I kept
the tape going waiting from
don't come
back c-span turned off the
c-span turned
off the mics bollocks because
there was
nothing going on and they start
trying
to fill because it was just
dead air but
here it is incident Pelosi one
speaker
and now yield one minute to the
distinguished Speaker of the
House the
distinguished speaker of the
house is
recognized thank you very much
mr.
Speaker I thank the gentleman
for
yielding I thank him for his
leadership
in so many ways in this
Congress mister
I went to Spanish Mass this
weekend just
and saw the dignity of those
families
the beauty of the children and
the fear
that the President had struck
in their
hearts the words that were used
go home
to some of our colleagues as he
wants to
split up families these
comments from
the White House are disgraceful
and
disgusting and Vicks comments
are racist
forcibly restrain us in
condemning the
president's racist tweets to do
anything
less would be a shocking
rejection of
our values and a shameful
abdication of
our oath of office to protect
the
American people I urge the
language
know that the balance of my I
was just
gonna give the general speaker
of the
house that she would like to
rephrase
that comment I had cleared my
remarks as
a parliamentarian before I read
them to
be taken down I make a point of
Ward the
gentleman's words are on
polymerase
ready to be taken down the
chair will
remind all numbers please
please do not
make comments toward
personality based
or personality based comments
Ellen from Georgia is
recognized my
point of order mr.
gentlewoman's our
parliamentarian requests they
be taken
down mr. gentleman making a
demand that
the words be taken down I
request they
gentleman gentlewoman's words
are on
parliamentary request that it
be taken
down I don't want to interrupt
your
presentation I just have two
comments
one the whole issue here is
that you are
not allowed to call members in
chamber
any kind of name be disparaging
against
him and the president by
definition is
represented there too just
before that
the Democrats had done the same
shit the
Republicans asking for
parliamentary
inquiry and and to strike words
from the
record for the very same
reasons what
I'm not hearing is Pelosi say
Trump is
racist he said racist tweets
his racist
tweets so I'll step back that's
all true
now this resulted in let's see
I gotta
get these look these are not in
the
right order
these are let's see random
violation
okay we got that there's a
bunch of
these by the way here's the
incident
congress's where he comes back
finally
after two hours plus and the
chair comes
up and says this is the incident
Congress for abandons okay this
happens
to try to do this in a fair way
I kept
warning both sides let's not do
this
hoping we could get through mr.
Powell
had a situation where we could
be
here on another motion to take
down
words of a friend of mine
and but we don't ever ever want
to pass
up it seems an opportunity to
escape and
that's what this is I dare
anybody to
look at any of the footage and
see if
there was any unfairness
but unfairness is not enough
because we
want to just fight abandon the
chair I
like that
toss the gravel its gavel
people we know
we call it a gravel he taught
rows to
gravel down and walks off what
do we do
so they bring another guy up
but he
never does anything and then we
wait
another I don't know how long
it was
hour and then all of a sudden
higher
comes up Oh who's the majority
leader of
the Democrats standing over
Steny Hoyer
comes out and he does this and
this is
the and he says the following
incident
Congress ruling the Hoyer last
chair is
prepared to rule chair is
prepared to
rule the words of the
gentlewoman from
California contain an
accusation of
racist behavior on the part of
the
president has memorialized and
Nationals
precedence chapter 29 section 6
P five
point six characterization
characterizing an action as
racist is
not in order the chair relies
on the
precedent of May 15th 1984 and
finds
that the words should not be
used in
debate hmm what purpose does the
gentleman from Georgia rise Mr
Speaker I
have a motion at the desk clerk
will
report the motion
mr. Collins of Georgia moves
that the
words of the gentlewoman from
California
be stricken from the record
the question is on the motion
all those
in favor signify by saying aye
opposed
nay the nays have it
oh-oh there was previous rules
on the
books specifically about
calling an
action racist
yes I didn't realize okay so
that makes
sense so she broke the rules
but she
broke the rule in the car stay
back to
rap anyway but the thing was
there were
two other ones I have two other
clips
that are they're only here for
the
entertainment value yeah
and they both could have been
called out
for the exact same thing nothing
happened it's as if Doug
college has
waited for Pelosi to do it
because these
two are actually it's one of
the two are
worse than Pelosi this is the
incident
there's a random violation of
the same
rule by Bonnie Watson Mr
Speaker I rise
today to call out the blatant
racism in
the president's tweets I
believe his
rant
and his defense of that rant
merit
censure from this body the
phrase go
back where you came from as a
racist
trope that has been used by
segregationist neo-nazis white
nationalists and Ku Klux
Klansmen to
create a framework in which
non-white
people are not truly American
describing
non-white countries is broken
and
crime-infested echoes the
racist probe
the president has used before
that such
countries are dysfunctional
dysfunctional dirty and violent
because
their populations are black his
comments
are indefensible and so is the
silence
of my colleagues across the
aisle I
wouldn't bother seeking an
apology from
him but I do hope Republicans
here will
join us in fully and roundly
condemning
his words and I'd remind them
that
history won't look kindly on
those who
refuse to stand up for what is
right it
is not lost on me however and I
hope not
my colleagues either that this
is simply
a distraction from the
president is
friendship with a documented
pedophile
pedophile and news reports that
he lied
to the Supreme Court about his
census
question with that I yield back
members
are reminded from engaging
personalities
toward the president for what
purpose
does the gentlewoman from
Illinois seek
recognition now so now it just
you just
lets it slide yeah you let that
one
slide but wait a minute
incident another violation see
this is
the dead clip three and here on
the
floor outside of you the
gallery filling
with people watching what's a
fairly
unusual
process here in the house the
cameras
showing the floor are
controlled by the
US House not by c-span speaker
Pelosi's
comments are under review by
the house
Republican looking for but the
point is
is that there was three people
that did
the this very negative action
saying
they tea should be censored
they never
did censor and they just
scolded him as
supposedly for these violations
by
calling out this for
congresswoman the
whole thing though I was
watching and
you saw most of it yeah it was
very I
thought it was watching a kind
of a
crazy kind of a wacky history
guy throws
down the gravel and mist stomps
out
Pelosi leaves when she's
supposed to
stay you know I what a waste of
time is
what I know kidding and what a
waste of
great c-span airtime well I'm
sure they
weren't happy about it cuz it
when he
when they said that we shall
cease after
callers calls for her taken
down to
thing they stopped they stopped
the show
for two hours I'm sitting there
with the
recorder going cuz I actually
got up and
left into something else
figured I'd
come back and see how much time
there
was so I could report on the
time
accurately and it was still
going blank
and so I'm saying I'll I had to
stop it
wait waste well you said it
right there
you said they stopped the show
that's
exactly what it is show
business for
ugly people and that some of
them said
these days aren't even that
ugly it's an
embarrassment it's just an
embarrassment
they're people calling Trump
racist in
the chamber all the time all
the time
but now now he had they had to
go after
Pelosi it's just uh looked kind
of
Haggard - well Nancy's Nancy's
having a
hard time having a real hard
time she
can't she can't keep it all
together she
has to gettin old and she
doesn't have
the skill set hmm to deal with
these for
the squad what what do you need
sorry what skill set do you
need to
handle them I don't know I
don't have it
I mean here's you're not old
enough to
be speaker damn it that's your
problem I
have a clip from a couple shows
ago
Pelosi and AOC battle which
kind of
describes us too long it's a
long clip
it's alright but when she had
when she
had the just a oh she did
contend with
it was one thing but now the
squad these
four women have ganged up on
Pelosi for
the House Speaker a difficult
issue I
said when let's say on the
subject now
is yesterday when Nancy Pelosi
was asked
about the public airing of what
had been
mostly private frustrations in
her
caucus those began months ago
as a group
of new members including New
York's
Alexandria Ocasio Cortes pushed
openly
for the party to move more to
the left
at one point she protested in
Pelosi's
office for her sweeping
progressive
green New Deal Pelosi reached
out
offering Ocasio Court has a
spot on a
new climate change committee
but she
turned it down pointing out
that the
temporary committee had fewer
powers
than others soon Ocasio Cortes
and three
other freshman women of color
emerged as
a tight vocal group of activist
members
but they did not openly break
with
Pelosi until this month as
Congress
heard more news of child deaths
and poor
treatment of migrants at the
border
Democrats initially passed
legislation
to force bitter conditions but
that bill
hit a wall in the Senate we
already have
our compromise so Pelosi
compromised
agreeing to a more generic
border
funding bill that didn't
require better
treatment the motion is adopted
the only Democrats voting know
those
same four freshmen sometimes
called the
squad and Ocasio cortezes
office went
further her chief of staff
raised race
in a tweet that attacked
moderate
Democrats writing they
certainly seem
hell-bent to do to black and
brown
people today what the old
Southern
Democrats did in the 40s that
seems to
be the only that's like the
only thing
left in America
in the people in political
America if
you have no argument just call
that
person too racist
it's if it didn't work they
wouldn't do
it
well it doesn't seem to work
it's it
just doesn't they think it
works I mean
if use if you're outside the
buff you're
not in if you're in I'm sorry
if you're
in the harsh bubble the same
bubble that
I pointed out that was showing
in the
tweets against Jake Tapper's
theory that
showed up in the comments on
Twitter if
you're in that bubble it's
working great
if you're in the Rob Reiner
bubble right
but it doesn't have any actual
effect on
the outcome George W Bush from
still
Behe think it does I think it's
working
great it's gonna get rid of
this yes
these four women they need to
go review
the history books it just
doesn't really
work that well you know the one
of us
been reading a lot of Marshall
Luther
King Martha and you know the
way I
actually saw this come down was
a little
different they called Pelosi a
racist
because she was oh she has to
be very
careful what she says about
women of
color and even after all of
this they
went on with the Gayle King and
I think
was I don't was to leave or
Presley who
said well you know she has to
be really
careful Pelosi saying things
about women
of color cuz we get death
threats
you know it's like and I
thought Trump
went in actually to draw fire
away from
Pelosi I thought it was being
chivalrous
at first right oh well that's
kind of
nice he's like giving Pelosi a
break but
then it turns out he was pulling
everybody in to make them all
look
stupid anyway did you would
need the
rest of this clip cuz I'm I see
where it
goes those words but a few days
later
Pelosi told the New York Times
the group
made themselves irrelevant
saying there
are four people and that's how
many
votes they got then on
Wednesday Pelosi
went behind closed doors with
her caucus
making an extraordinary plea
for unity
at one point saying that
members should
come to her with complaints not
tweet
about one another but the squad
of four
felt they were being wrongly
scolded
Anacostia Cortez told The
Washington
Post it was just outright
disrespectful
they explicit singling out of
newly
elected women of color that
comment
resonated with another prominent
Democrat progressive caucus
leader
Pramila jeyapaul who also said
I don't
think the speaker is used to
having a
group of members who has bigger
Twitter
followings than her which
brings us back
to policies response at the
request of
my members an offensive tweet
that came
out of one of the members
offices that
referenced our Blue Dogs and
our new
Dems essentially as
segregationist our
members took offense at that I
addressed
that we respect the value of
every
member of our caucus the
diversity of it
all is a wonderful thing
diversity is our strength unity
is our
power and we have a big fight
and we're
in the arena and that's all I'm
going to
say on the subject this all
goes deeper
than large personalities at odds
Pelosi's Democrats have real
policy
divides between moderates many
of whom
are in vulnerable districts and
progressives who are not it's a
fight
not just about who Democrats
are but
what they want to do it's
actually
something in there was kind of
interesting with offices that
rep of our
caucus the diversity of it all
is a
wonderful thing diversity is our
strength unity is our power and
we
I'm gonna show my food by
donation - no
agenda imagine all the people
who could
do guys oh yeah and indeed we
do a few
people thank for show 11:56
starting
with Chris mitts laughs one
hundred nine
dollars and 89 cents uh he's
that didn't
hurt first time donor he pooped
do you
awesome work guys
in case you're wondering this
is my
three dollars show times thirty
three
shows donation nice thank you
know it's
calmer for everybody we'll put
that at
the end and you bed we had a
group
donation with some interesting
stuff
which I'm trying to decide what
to do
with this have it in front I
have it in
front of me the Atlanta meetup
yeah yeah
I have a note I have a note
from the
Atlanta did you have something
else to
say about I just I'm just gonna
read the
note yeah the Atlanta meetup
contributed
a hundred and eight dollars now
they you
can read the note but the they
sent a
white red book it filled with a
bunch of
comments which I read some of
them on
the upcoming shows five
different people
that were there and it's
actually kind
of cute of course of waste the
whole
book and I'm thinking how to do
this
without just squandering as
somebody one
of our producers this and a
note and
saying some about saving pages
listen I
even have it here I might well
let me
read the the report from sir
Victor of
Alabama baronet of the
Talladega Range
John Adam here's an unofficial
report
from this week's Atlanta meet
up at the
punchbowl social at Battery
Park which
is the venue for the Atlanta
Braves we
had at least fifteen attendees
in the
photo is attached noticed the
Adam and
John heads on the stake in the
back row
it's a meetup requirement but we
naturally broke up into three
to four
small groups where someone
would hold
forth my favorite conversation
was our
submariner explaining the
issues with
the Iranian Iranian Navy and
their
diesel submarines in the
Persian Gulf
we had a fifty dollar anonymous
cash
contribution that is already in
the mail
to the PIO box
another great meet up more than
half of
the attendees were at their
first no
agenda event
and I guess everyone had a good
time
because you could all sit down
chat
about anything you want without
anyone
getting triggered indeed anyway
so the
idea might be to you get one of
these
little books everyone signs and
puts a
little comment you then it's my
recommendation you then
photocopy the
pages of those of the write-ups
there's
not that many more than you
know ten or
twenty and this like button on
this one
and then you send those in as a
PDF or a
file of some sort keep the book
for the
next meetup that you're gonna
have cuz
mostly like the Atlanta 404 is
gonna
have more than a few meetups
yeah keep
the book and just keep filling
until
it's about at least halfway
full then
send send it off exactly exactly
very good that's by
recommendation
onward to sir hey Musa hundred
bucks
Brett Winslow in Dodgeville
Wisconsin a
hundred Troy Sprague and Lapeer
a
Michigan and Troy actually did
send a
send a note and what share is
squeakin
today yes sure is like the
weather mmm
yeah this is Troy here he says
he has
two requests he wants three no
invisible
no agenda hats Adam mentioned
quiet you
only get two by the way Adam
mentioned
quite a few shows back putting
a prequel
of a few words before you sign a
contract that you are unsure of
but it's
a contract you must sign he
wants a
reminder without without
prejudice
there's the invisible the
invisible hat
just came through
he's a plus one for Freddie the
firewall
Redux onward yeah we have that
we should
discuss the signing think
excuse me

everyone likes to wear their

fist bump I know I know
and remember us for the next
show Dvorak
org slash na will be here on
Sunday very
important news you probably
heard about
the area 51 storm which yeah
I've stayed
oh I've stayed away from
reporting on it
as much as I could Mimi had a
good idea
at the table
since you said it I said this
is not a
bad thing you have a half a
million
people and want to storm the
place
million the government set up
shop and
charged him a hundred bucks
each bring
him in and a bus give him a
full tour
and take him out well probably
because
no one is actually going to go
well I
think it was I think if they
were gonna
give a tour
I might go I don't know if I
pay out I
think hundred bucks a little
steep but I
think these most of these
people would
pay a hundred bucks
I remember our producers in
Utah when I
did the Utah meet up about four
or five
years ago and there they had
seen really
weird stuff out there I got to
go back
and listen that episode I
forgot but
they were contractors and they
worked on
one of the hangars and gosh do
you
remember what it was they were
seeing
weird things saucers and I
wasn't
saucers I stayed away from the
story
until until I got this fox news
report
with a kicker it was a joke but
one the
Air Force is taking seriously a
Facebook
post an avowed fake designed to
get
likes announced a plan to raid
the Air
Force Base in Nevada known as
area 51
which has been at the center of
UFO and
alien conspiracy theories for
decades
more than 1 million people have
signed
up for the storm area 51 they
can't stop
all of us event slated for late
September in which the post
declares we
can move faster than their
bullets
let's see them aliens it's been
enough
to spook the Air Force
which doesn't use the term area
51 to
describe the 2.9 million acre
live-fire
training range the largest in
the United
States located at Nellis Air
Force Base
in Nevada one of the many
reasons Air
Force officials don't want
people to
trespass on the base they are
worried
some might be killed quote any
attempt
to illegally access military
installations or military
training areas
is dangerous it's not clear the
1.1
million Facebook followers who
said
they're going to storm area 51
are real
and not Russian bots I mean
really now
they're Russian BOTS what it's
not clear
whether they're real Russian
BOTS now
please the least bit cliff at
least my
stepdaughter she got green net
pointing
nails cuz I'm ready it's
because did she
sign up no of course not it's
just a
thing now it's a thing it's
like the
face app it's these are all
psychologically mentally
controlled
children we're doing whatever
the phone
tells them to do phone tells me
to move
I'm showing off my nails yeah
I'm part
of the club oh well there you
have it
yeah all right what else we got
here
today because a bunch of stuff
just some
interesting news coming out
Kevin
Spacey's charges are dropped
yeah that it's kind of sad
because well
I followed this story I guess
what turns
out is that they've figured out
that
this kid maybe had you know had
texted
his friends that some
information that
would have would have been
exculpatory
ie would have proven that it
didn't
happen and they deleted those
and they
manipulated screenshots have a
clip oh
that's what I should just stop
you see I presume it would be
called
Kevin Spacey yes got it
prosecutors dropping charges
against
actor Kevin Spacey something his
attorney called for in court
last week
this case needs to be dismissed
I
believe it needs to be
dismissed today
the state of Massachusetts
dropping a
Nantucket case due to the
unavailability
of the complaining witness that
witness
a young man who was 18 when he
worked as
a busboy at this Nantucket
restaurant
his mother told me in 2017 that
Spacey
assaulted her son it wasn't
until Kevin
Spacey put his hand inside his
pants
that he really knew he was in
trouble he
said he didn't video of the
alleged
incident to his girlfriend and
texted
with friends but last week at a
hearing
his attorney said after police
reviewed
the phone it went missing Your
Honor we
could not locate the farm
Spacey's
attorney asked if the accuser
had
deleted messages I don't
believe so he
said but his mother later
admitted she
did delete some content at the
hearing
the alleged victim stopped
answering
questions asserting his right
against
self-incrimination she turn any
evidence
in and in this case it was
electronic
in furtherance of a criminal
investigation and you altered
it that in
and of itself is a crime yep
well Kevin Spacey definitely
has some
odd quirky behavior to his name
but this
is this is he's a I would say
to a
degree is a victim of the me to
movement
no I would agree although they
still
have charges supposedly
supposedly in LA
in London no they have not been
made oh
okay I just have three three me
fold up
the whole thing may fold up
shop uh I
mean I think they're early
assertions we
have what this is really all
about Trump
yeah and it's just they got the
Weinstein guy out of the way and
everything in the Trump things
not
sticking well let's let's try
something
new and let's go after us make
Trump a
pedophile this is taken to the
next
level so I have to Epstein
clips if you
want to hear them yeah as a
lead-in to
that I don't have a lead I have
a
lead-in
I just wanted to mention that
Vanity
Fair a Vanity Fair is a people
read
Vanity Fair it's a I'd say they
they're
I know how fair Vanity Fair is
but when
Vanity Fair Farah is
well-written
well-written and well read
quoted as the
headline is going to be
staggering the
amount of names as the Jeffrey
Epstein
case grows more grotesque
Manhattan and
DC brace for impact
and the article talks about
hundreds if
maybe not thousands of names
who may be
implicating implicated once the
the
cases are opened up and doesn't
some of
this happen today on a show day
of
course maybe maybe not all I
know is you
know my position on this
nobody's gonna
be okay there's nothing to this
I mean
the guy's a creep and that's
about it
and there's a lot of voluntary
action
going on I just don't see that
this is
just again an anti-trump the
thing going
on and it's not gonna help
anybody but
that's just me now Epstein at
party NB C
there's two clips I have both
from NBC
NB C dredge
up in 1992 video of when he had
mar-a-lago was not fully built
out as a
resort it was just something
Trump owned
it was a party house and he
likes to
party with the folks down in
polls his
Epstein four feet tall Epstein's
apparently quite a de minute
he's not
petite male you know he looks
like a
Formula One driver you know I
mean with
a little big head skinny body
I'm not
impressive at all well so this
is 1992
which is 27 years ago and then
they've
also has some mentioned did
they try to
make it sound like was
yesterday in
Trump's his pal even though
Trump has
said he hasn't talked to him
for 15
years they can't find any
evidence that
he's even talked about him even
just in
any way since 2002 which is 17
years ago
so they're just trying to oh
god there's
got to be some way to can end
that you
heard on Congress that the
woman on the
floor of Congress this woman
Bonnie
Watson go on and on about Trump
being a
pedophile
which was you know the chair
goes I
don't do that again this is not
a
problem
yeah so let's go with Epstein
at party
NBC these mar-a-lago was Trump
South
Florida party palace one
frequented by
Jeffrey Epstein who was facing
charges
for sex trafficking he has
pleaded not
guilty the president says his
relationship with Epstein was no
different than anyone else in
their
elite circle well I knew him
like
everybody in Palm Beach knew
him he was
a fixture in Palm Beach I don't
think
I've spoken to him for 15 years
I wasn't
a fan yeah
a tape in the NBC archives of a
Marla go
party shows Trump giving
Epstein his
personal attention the footage
shot in
November of 1992 before Trump
opened the
resort as a club shows the
future
president surrounded by
cheerleaders for
the Buffalo Bills and Miami
Dolphins
capturing some fun-loving
bachelor
lifestyle for an appearance on
faith
Daniels NBC talk show we're
going to get
great ratings in your show
Trump is
surrounded by women as music
blares in
the background after a while
Trump goes
to greet three new guests among
them the
financier Jeffrey Epstein
more than a decade before his
guilty
plea on state prostitution
charges later
in the footage Trump is seen
talking to
Epstein and another man as
women are
dancing in front of them
Trump alternates between
dancing and
pointing out women to Epstein
and the
other man and telling Epstein
about the
cameras though exactly what
they say is
difficult to understand as they
discuss
the women and their appearances
you know
I'm sorry just quick stop I saw
the
video it's not clear he's
pointing out
women and their appearances
it's not
clear he's talking to anybody
about the
appearance right you're right
this is
bullcrap
sir and let's talk mention
something
else this was this was a staged
a staged
event yeah will you talk to
someone to
make it look like you're busy
they
brought in these people there
doesn't
mean he knows any of them this
was
staged by NBC for one of their
talk
shows so NBC could have invited
the
cheerleaders in and then and
another
thing they could do and they
probably
did since they're filming it
directing
it yeah okay talk to this talk
make it
look like you're talk to him
don't run
shake this shake his hand okay
no no go
over there go over there now
now go over
that now dance can we get Sean
let's
just take another analogy from
NBC which
they do to this day
when the news program is over
what do
you do you take your papers
here you go
okay I'm shuffling what they're
empty
shuffling my papers and I'm
pretending
to talk to my co-hosts well
that was
awful wasn't that really bright
it is
totally done for the camera now
they're
exposing it understand as they
discuss
the women and their appearances
Trump gestures to one and
appears to say
to Epstein look at her back
there she's
hot and then something else
into FC's
ear that makes him double over
with
black sir but as the president
says now
he never liked x2 I was not a
fan of his
that I can tell you I was not a
pair of
his wasn't full borderline
because I'd
seen most of this reporting but
I hadn't
seen this particular report he
appears
to say something and he's here
NBC
doofuses with the camera they're
recording everything we dude
they're so
stupid probably was it's called
b-roll
people and that was bean update
trying
to implicate Trump they push it
a little
further no further also being
talked
about tonight some video shot
by NBC
News 27 years ago that offers a
glimpse
into the past relationship
between
President Trump and Jeffrey
Epstein who
was now facing new sex
trafficking
charges NBC's Stephanie Gosk
has details
a 1992 party at mar-a-lago
Donald Trump
and Jeffrey Epstein shared a
joke and
the lack NFL cheerleaders
danced among
the crowd the video from NBC's
archives
was shot more than a decade
before
Epstein served 13 months in a
Florida
jail for procuring a minor for
prostitution last week after
Epstein
pleaded not guilty to new
federal sex
trafficking charges the
president
characterized their
relationship people
in Palm Beach knew him he was a
fixture
in Palm Beach I had a
falling-out with
him a long time ago I don't
think I've
spoken to him for 15 years I
wasn't a
fan but in a 2002 magazine
article Trump
called Epstein a terrific
and it is even said he likes
beautiful
women as much as I do so we had
to back
it up and deconstruct this
because this
is interesting he says I
haven't talked
to him for 15 years I'm not a
fan yeah
and then she uses the word but
now you
use the word but in this sense
to negate
the previous yes to negate it
to negate
he said this but well the but
is from
2000 to 17 years ago and he
hasn't
talked to him for 15 years so
how is
this a but oh my goodness hey
who are
they trying to fool at NBC with
this
package what here's the thing
why don't
they show video of a hood Barak
from
Israel entering and leaving
Epstein's
Manhattan townhouse and with at
the same
time multiple young women you
know
there's pictures that's it's
being it's
in some print pieces it's
online but no
they won't do anything about
that and
that's it's not Trump I know
hey who'd
Barack who gives a shit drop I
had a
falling out with him a long
time ago I
don't think I've spoken to him
for 15
years I wasn't a fan but in a
2002
magazine article Trump called
Epstein a
terrific guy adding it is even
said he
likes beautiful women as much
as I do
and many of them are on the
younger side
on Thursday a federal judge
will decide
if Epstein gets out on bail
prosecutors
have argued he is both a risk
to the
public and a flight risk citing
is more
than 500 million-dollar wealth
piles of
cash loose diamonds and an
expired
foreign passport under a
different name
but with Epstein's photo his
residents
listed as Saudi Arabia the
defense team
said the passport was acquired
from
Austria in the 80s for personal
protection when Epstein
traveled in the
Middle East stating their
client was
concerned about kidnappers
hijackers or
terrorists tonight decades
later Epstein
fate is in the hands of a
federal judge
Stephanie Gosk NBC News New York
alright let's let's do I want
to mention
something here that this is a
hit piece
as a piece of crap
if the Saudi Arabian passport
and his
excuse for having it is valid
as far as
I'm concerned if it was a valid
passport
today then it would mean
something but
it's an expired old passport
that
apparently he kept for some
reason right
that's useless so why is it
even in the
report it's not as in material
they're
just trying to build this
nonsense case
and it's like but it's not
really trying
to build the case they're
trying to meet
and do Saudi Arabia cause was
mentioned
for a reason oh yeah that's the
reason
you bring it in Saudi Arabia
Saudi
Arabia own Trump in the bad
prince the
Saudi Arabia who chops people
not be
chops up journalists this is
like a
trump and they Trump piece in
every way
it's unbelievable how poorly
done it is
well I want you to stay on this
I'm
taking the Epstein information
I'm more
interested in or I've become
interested
in the companies that he
invested in
which appeared to be a lot of
mind
control or singularity you know
Nathan
Myhrvold these guys a lot of
this and a
lot of companies that would
need human
people to experiment on
remember he
collects people and and some of
these
companies are very interesting
they do
some no I think you should just
your be
mathematical biology and kinda
dit to
you yes please please do so I'm
looking
at that stuff like what was
this what
was he doing with this money
and he but
you know a lot of Silicon
Valley a lot
of these singularity type dudes
he was
hanging out with so hilarious
yeah yeah
okay that was that was funny it
was a
good catch on that on that NBC
report
what a bunch of crap by the way
if it
comes out the Trump was a part
of this
wouldn't surprise me either
well it actually would surprise
me
nothing surprises me anymore I
just have
two more things two clips but
this is
from the Google censorship a
session
which was also the judicial
oversight
committee I think it was Ted
Cruz
presiding the senator from
Texas and the
first clip has no real further
background other than they had
one one
guy was a dr. Robert Epstein
and Robert
Epstein and testified that
Google
actually swayed real votes in
the last
election just to give you an it
is a
different Epstein or Epstein
he's an
American psychologist professor
author
and journalist PhD from Harvard
editor
of psychology today visiting
scholar of
University of California San
Diego
founder and director emeritus of
Cambridge Center for behavioral
studies
in Concord Massachusetts a
commentator
for NPR's market plays his
writings have
appeared in The Washington Post
Sunday
Times in London Good
Housekeeping
parenting then he was published
in 2006
perspectives in cycle I mean
he's got
he's got quite the resume could
be a
complete nut job he also has a
beef with
Google Google search over
security
warning we've had that placed
on links
to his website you know it's
like oh
this could be bogus anti-vaxxer
not that
he is but you know one of those
types of
things so the guy has his is
conflicted
with Google but here is the
kind of the
summation of his testimony and
what Cruz
thought of that the number one
financial
supporter of the Hillary Clinton
campaign in the 2016 election
was the
parent company of Google
alphabet
who was our first witness they
were her
number one financial donor and
your
testimony is through their
deceptive
search methods they moved 2.6
million
votes in her direction I would
think
anybody whether or not you
favor one
can't be or another
should be deeply dismayed about
a
handful of Silicon Valley
billionaires
having that much power over our
elections to silently and
deceptively
shift vote outcomes again with
respect I
must correct you the 2.6
million is a
rock-bottom minimum the range
is between
two point six and ten point
four million
depending on how aggressively
they used
the techniques that I've been
studying
now for six-and-a-half years
Wow good
could you say that again please
just two
point six million is a
rock-bottom
minimum the range is between
two point
six and ten point four million
votes
depending on how aggressive
they were in
using the techniques that I've
been
studying such as the search
engine
manipulation affect the search
suggestion effect the answer
bot effect
and a number of others they
control
these and no one can counteract
them
these are not competitive these
are
tools that they have at their
disposal
exclusively funny how you
didn't see
that clip anywhere and I'm sure
you
didn't hear about it but there
it is
happened just the other day and
that is
a that is a great clip and if
I'm gonna
give you a clip of the day for
uncovering it something
happened on this
panel which I have I don't
think ever
seen before
typically you get you know
someone there
there's a witness you're gonna
grill
them and yes there will be easy
questions from the from one
side of the
other softballs all pre-scripted
everybody knows what's going on
but
really do you hear a
representative or
senator actually sit there and
defend
the witness without asking any
questions
so you have to wonder who is
paying
mazie Hirono mazie Hirono is i
think
she's nuts
she represents Hawaii the guide
and his
two to ten million dollar ten
million
vote no no not that was it that
was a
witness spending google google
the
calendar says it's July 16th
but it
feels like Groundhog Day in the
United
States Senate a little more
than three
months ago this subcommittee
held a
hearing to explore allegations
of anti
conservative bias in the tech
industry
my friends on the other side
were
critical of witnesses from
Facebook and
Twitter they claimed a vast
conspiracy
to silence conservative voices
after
listening to some of the
comments from
that hearing you might think
that some
liberal mastermind such as the
controls
of those platforms looking at
five
hundred ten thousand Facebook
posts and
three hundred fifty thousand
tweets
posted every minute and removes
anything
that might have aligned with the
Republican party platform I
would repeat
now what I said then claims of
anti
conservative bias in the tech
industry
are baseless
study after study has debunked
two
suggestions of political bias
on the
part of Facebook Google and
Twitter in
June of this year The
Economist's
released the findings of a
year-long
analysis at ran on search
results on
Google's news tab Inc economist
you your
bell ring is correct they found
no
evidence that Google biases
results
against conservatives in April
Media
Matters completers at 37 Media
Matters
study into alleged conservative
censorship on Facebook I found
that
right-leaning pages actually
outperformed outperform
left-leaning
pages in terms of overall
interactions
with users undeterred by this
evidence
here we are again three months
after
that initial hearing with
Facebook and
Twitter it is now Google's turn
to be
raked over the coals Google
will be
accused of political motives
for some
common-sense actions that are
entirely
within their rights just like
we saw it
the president's so-called quote
social
social media summit last week
President
Trump invited a rogue's gallery
of
social medias leading racists
conspiracy theorists to hear
about
supposed censorship by tech
companies
but none of these people had
actually
been banned from any platform
each
remains free to use the
megaphone social
media provides to spread their
messages
of conspiracy and hate this
tilting at
windmills comes at a cost
fears of being tarred as biased
have
made tech companies hesitant to
deal
with the real problems of
racist and
harrassing content on their
platforms
according to a report by Vice
Twitter is
afraid to use a proactive
algorithmic
approach at users to remove
Isis related
content to rid the platform of
white
supremacist content the reason
Twitter
is a freedom might also catch
content
posted by Republican
politicians they
can't use the algos because you
know to
find racist stuff because it
would trap
Republican politicians thanks
mazie
Hirono thank you thank you
go get your check now what a
horrible
woman she's a horrible none of
these
people are doing any service to
the
country none of them bündchen
I do like
to tender two to ten million
votes way
though I yeah that's possible
it's yeah
could be could be you don't
know but you
probably result in that means
there's a
lot of lot in that clip that
was a great
clip we will finish with that
and that's
