1205 this is no agenda Austin
Texas
0:20
capital of the drone star state
in the
0:22
morning everybody
0:23
I'm Adam curry and from
Northern Silicon
0:25
Valley where there'll be no
record set
0:27
today because we miss the
Zephyr I'm
0:29
John C Dvorak thought to be
fair the
0:36
Zephyr was just earlier than
normal we
0:38
didn't really miss anything
well I saw
0:42
go by ok but yeah anyway
0:48
G
0:51
I guess some stuff stuff
happened days
0:56
is when it always takes place
but before
0:58
we go into Iran I do want to
make
1:04
mention that Thursday by a
request from
1:06
Sir Chris Wilson in Australia
we were
1:09
requested to give yet another
massive
1:11
shake of our rain sticks which
are
1:15
precision instruments these are
not just
1:18
some phony-baloney tourist
thing these
1:21
were made by sherry Osbourne in
Utah and
1:23
they work conditions have eased
on the
1:25
far south coast of New South
Wales after
1:28
fire threatened the town of
Eden live
1:31
now to our reporter Trudi
McIntosh trees
1:33
in Eden treating it take us
through
1:35
what's happened well we're
starting to
1:37
see a sprinkling of rain here
in the
1:39
town of Eden but yes you can
see behind
1:41
me there's certainly still
plenty of
1:43
smoke blanketing this area
plenty of
1:45
people who have camped here for
the
1:47
night at the Eden Wharf after
what has
1:49
been a pretty difficult few
days in this
1:52
town it must be said people are
staying
1:54
here because this morning there
was an
1:55
emergency level fire that had
been
1:57
coming from the Victorian
border towards
1:59
this town I spoke to one local
resident
2:01
Joann a short time ago she
tells me
2:03
about what it was like to be in
the town
2:06
as this fire came towards it I
thought I
2:08
would have to come down here
tonight but
2:09
with this rain it's heaven-sent
and I
2:12
went home wash me hey my hair
was that
2:14
dirty I couldn't believe it and
the
2:17
birds come out and they started
singing
2:19
this afternoon so we figured
that we're
2:21
we're right not out of the
woods yet but
2:24
heaven sent birds and rain in
Australia
2:29
did you see this morning's
report about
2:31
the rain
2:32
no this was caused by the
intense heat
2:38
bullcrap it was caused by rain
sticks we
2:42
all know how this works intense
heat we
2:49
never get credit for any never
ever do
2:52
it now we need a lot more rain
to fall
2:54
but it's a good start and
they're
2:55
predicting a lot more so
hopefully
2:57
things will look I sent out a
note on
2:59
Thursday to all produce a
Australian
3:02
producers and
3:03
you guys do one and everybody
kind of
3:06
had the time I've had the same
same
3:10
feedback it's like yeah it's
bad it's
3:12
been worse but you know there
was a lot
3:15
that could be done and oh yes
some of
3:18
this may have been set by
arsonists
3:20
which I think is with 85% of
all forest
3:24
fires has some chance of arson
involved
3:27
that crazy people
3:30
arsonists well yeah and well if
I have a
3:33
report they actually know where
the
3:35
arsonists are apparently in
Australia
3:38
well listen to this the flies
3:39
destructive force was fast and
furious
3:43
now the meticulous investigation
3:45
will soon be pouring over the
devastated
3:48
fire grounds all along the
south coast
3:50
vital work for the coroner who
will
3:53
probe all aspects of the fire
there's an
3:55
enormous amount of work to
prepare for
3:57
the coroner not just with the
burned out
3:59
buildings and structures but
also
4:01
clearly the deaths of people
that have
4:04
occurred as a result of these
fires and
4:05
a more sinister consideration
were the
4:08
fires intentionally started
police have
4:10
formed strike force in daraa
comprising
4:13
detectives from homicide and
arson
4:15
squads plus drawing on insights
from
4:17
officers with local knowledge
who will
4:20
lead the work we'll make
available any
4:22
other specialist resources in
terms of
4:24
our Forensic Services Group and
other
4:26
criminal investigators arson
squad
4:28
detectives are also part of
this strike
4:30
force responsible for tracking
down fire
4:33
bugs nine to be responsible for
lighting
4:35
deliberately lit fires like
this one at
4:37
South Tara mara last November
part of
4:40
their Charter is also proactive
knocking
4:43
on the doors of known arsonists
when
4:45
conditions get this bad hey
mister
4:49
arsonist hey just want to check
make
4:52
sure you're not starting any
fires that
4:54
sounds kind of weird well it
doesn't
4:56
happen so much in this country
because
4:58
we find ways to throw the key
away with
5:00
an arsonist because because
it's been
5:04
determined it's not just it's
beyond me
5:06
it's beyond a sicknesses as a
sexual
5:09
perversion oh I didn't know
about the
5:11
sexual perversion part well it
doesn't
5:14
disgust a lot but in Australia
you just
5:17
go you know where they are you
just go
5:19
knock on the door hey registered
5:20
arsonist hey 70 fires lately
hey don't
5:23
do it okay don't do any
knocking on the
5:25
doors of known arsonists when
conditions
5:27
get this bad to prevent them
from
5:30
getting up to no good well
seven years
5:32
has been Tulsa believable
5:35
I find that very lackadaisical
if you
5:41
have a tinderbox card you with
this have
5:44
a tinderbox country you know
maybe you
5:46
should keep a real just not you
know
5:48
happenstance just drop by and
knock on
5:51
the arches in his door it's
like when I
5:53
was in Tuktoyaktuk North I was
in the
5:57
North Pole years and years ago
but yes I
6:00
took two yoke took is the
hangman tight
6:03
yes it's a little bit above
Inuvik in
6:05
the northwestern territories
and this
6:08
was the Molson ice polar beach
party
6:11
with metallica and whole and
Veruca Salt
6:15
was and we cyber casted this is
a long
6:17
time ago so we're up there it's
a cyber
6:20
casted oh we had a MUX we had
24 I've
6:25
heard enough going 24 phone
lines that
6:28
we that we combined into MUX
with the
6:31
was at 9600 baud modems and so
that's
6:34
how we did the cyber cast
anyway it was
6:37
at the time we were there was
23 hours
6:39
light during the day and you
know you're
6:43
up there and it's kind of like
an oil
6:46
rig area and you know just kids
are
6:49
driving around on their bikes
midnight
6:51
because it's you know the sun's
out
6:53
and where the whole crew is
looking for
6:55
something to drink and which of
course
6:59
is not allowed in that in that
area in
7:02
those territories and so you
kind of
7:04
side up to a kid say hey do you
know I'm
7:06
any chance and the kid
immediately will
7:09
go oh you want the drug dealer
or the
7:11
booze guide it's that house or
that
7:12
house that's kind of like the
arsonist
7:14
in Australia oh you live with a
mate
7:19
yeah just like that but not
only are we
7:23
helping with the rain stick
apparently
7:27
Australian government even
listens to
7:29
our show
7:31
well that would be a different
yeah the
7:34
Prime Minister he's he not only
does he
7:36
listen he's taking our material
around
7:40
people lifting our material and
not
7:43
credit crediting us I'm
absolutely sure
7:45
of that well here it is boots
on the
7:47
ground planes in the air ships
at sea
7:49
and trucks rolling into
communities that
7:51
have been impacted just taking
our
7:53
material
7:55
well there's no subs in the
water it's
7:58
not gonna help much with the
fires
8:00
anyway
8:01
we wish Australia the best we
hope
8:03
everything is going very well
8:09
so some guy got shot or blowed
blowed up
8:13
yeah apparently right after our
show
8:16
yeah thanks and it was this it
was a guy
8:21
I don't know about you but I
made the
8:23
claim that no one's have heard
of this
8:25
guy now all of a sudden he's
the most
8:27
famous guy in the world
8:28
first and he had people
protesting
8:31
people protesting in San
Francisco
8:34
Suleiman's unfairly it was like
they
8:37
don't know who this guy is they
can't
8:39
identify Iran I mentioned this
in a
8:41
newsletter you couldn't find it
on a map
8:42
I think we need to open the
segment
8:45
properly we've done this
segment about
8:47
Iran probably since the third
year of
8:50
the show and we have jingles
whenever we
8:52
talk about Iran
9:07
[Music]
9:15
the war machine is rolling once
again
9:19
everybody loves a little bit of
war with
9:21
Iran because we all get to talk
talk and
9:25
pontificate and talk and
threaten Mart
9:28
to Sherry signs shake a carry
signs and
9:31
be smart and tweet and tweet
well if I
9:35
know about that thing in San
Francisco I
9:36
would have had it over there
because
9:37
there's had to be a lot of
collectible
9:39
signs I have an m5 M Kampala a
short one
9:45
of their ass immediate
assessment of
9:48
silver money as you know a
revered man
9:51
John an iconic military leader
a revered
9:55
figure money is is difficult to
convey
9:58
how revered he is regarded as
personally
10:01
incredibly brave the troops
loved him
10:03
trying to think of somebody I
was
10:04
thinking to call a brilliant
man he was
10:07
the Cardinal Richelieu
10:08
he was the Machiavelli even
many of
10:11
sulemani 's enemies admitted he
was a
10:14
military genius he was at the
Baghdad he
10:18
at the Baghdad Airport and
deserved this
10:21
ok let's just stipulate that
let's just
10:24
say maybe it was the right
decision to
10:26
take him out but you have in
that case
10:29
right decision wrong
commander-in-chief
10:36
good how does all this jive
with Thomas
10:42
Friedman's column which I
actually had
10:44
excerpted in the newsletter yes
where he
10:47
starts off by saying sulemani
was the
10:49
dumbest guy ever he's a
bonehead nobody
10:54
like oh I gotta play the CIA
analyst
10:59
who's on the BBC
11:02
so again he was the dumbest guy
was that
11:05
that's what that's what
Friedman said
11:07
yeah dumbest guy and they're
gonna name
11:09
a street after Trump because
they killed
11:12
him obviously a dramatic
development for
11:16
a complicated region here to
break it
11:18
all down is Kenneth Pollack a
former CIA
11:20
intelligence analyst who's now
at the
11:22
American Enterprise Institute
thanks for
11:24
being with us always a pleasure
11:26
so you wrote that general
Soleimani was
11:29
like a combination of Lady Gaga
James
11:32
Bond and Rommel all rolled into
them how
11:35
significant is the moment of
his death
11:37
very significant
11:39
he was hugely important for
Iranians he
11:42
was extremely popular within
Iran he was
11:45
a critical elements of the
Iranian
11:48
leadership arguably perhaps the
second
11:50
most powerful man in Iran yes
just like
11:53
James Bond and Lady gaga rolled
up into
11:55
one
11:58
so we're getting mixed messages
from the
12:00
CIA the way I see yeah no
kidding
12:03
and I'm guessing that Friedman's
12:04
probably better connected than
that guy
12:06
yeah this is yeah I've heard
he's a
12:10
go-to guy for the BBC well they
should
12:14
go go to someplace else
12:17
[Music]
12:18
mm-hmm well let's listen to
some regular
12:21
regions just the normal
straight up
12:23
reports it's funny that one
that's the
12:26
most one of the most objective
ones I'm
12:27
you know they would play it
right away
12:29
is the democracy now they
actually did I
12:32
think they were more
even-handed than
12:34
ABC let's listen to this is soo
Lee su
12:38
Lee they're all called su Lee
and this
12:40
is ABC's intro oh you want to
ABC first
12:43
um yes I would at first it
would get to
12:45
Amy Amy Dame you took good they
all took
12:48
it to ten minutes all the
networks and
12:51
Amy - okay big segment big
segment okay
12:56
here's a Democracy Now ABC as
we come on
12:58
president Trump has now
addressed the
13:00
nation about that major
escalation in a
13:03
conflict with Iran the US drone
strike
13:05
targeting an Iranian military
chief
13:07
minutes after he landed at the
airport
13:09
in Baghdad general Qasem
Soleimani the
13:12
architect of iranian
intelligence and
13:15
military operations across the
region
13:17
for decades a revered figure in
Iran
13:19
today thousands mourning and
protesting
13:22
in Tehran Iran's supreme leader
vowing
13:24
harsh retaliation and revenge
for the
13:27
death of the man he called a
martyr but
13:29
president Trump blame Soleimani
for the
13:31
killing of hundreds of
Americans and
13:33
claimed he was actively
plotting to kill
13:35
more when he was found and
terminated
13:37
the president saying he did not
order
13:39
the strike to start a war with
Iran but
13:41
to stop one and yet tonight
some 3,500
13:44
more troops are being sent to
the region
13:46
and others put on alert ABC's
chief
13:49
global affairs correspondent
Martha
13:50
Raddatz leading us off with the
timeline
13:52
and the Swift reaction
13:56
all right so there was some
typed it
14:00
there for some reason time line
swift
14:03
reaction and by the way this
swift
14:06
reaction the this was obviously
not
14:09
Trump's operation no no no no
no yeah
14:12
because their indy trump start
driving
14:14
drones around following guys
and if i
14:16
well hold on let's just stop
there for
14:19
one second about the drones i
looked up
14:22
some of the statistics and at
this point
14:25
in his presidency under
President Trump
14:28
there have been more drone
killings than
14:31
under Obama and Obama was kind
of the
14:33
drone king now granted you
don't hear
14:36
about them much anymore I think
a lot of
14:38
them are taking place in Yemen
and
14:39
that's paid work for the for
the Saudis
14:44
but I personally I despise drone
14:49
killings and the reason is it
is it is
14:54
absolute terror that you have
drones
14:57
flying around everywhere in the
world
14:58
except America the drone flies
and
15:01
people ducking they're freaking
out
15:03
because you know that usually
means
15:05
you're gonna hear something
next and
15:07
then someone gets blown to
smithereens I
15:10
do not like this type of
warfare and we
15:13
got to be very careful of being
all
15:15
shitty about it because we
already have
15:17
unidentified drones flying over
Colorado
15:20
now granted they're not the same
15:21
platform as what we're talking
about
15:23
here but these drones can carry
some
15:25
weaponry then one day one day
we will
15:28
have drone strikes on Americans
there's
15:31
no doubt about it I'm just
saying don't
15:32
get all too happy about this
because
15:34
it's fucked up shit drones I
don't like
15:36
it at all
15:38
well that's one way of putting
it
15:40
let's play that I'm gonna back
off from
15:43
his ABC report oh there's a
switch back
15:45
coming never mind play ABC
switch back
15:49
dead end weird this is the
weird clip
15:52
here I wanted to separate it out
15:55
marry most members of Congress
were not
15:57
given a heads up about the
president's
15:59
action against Iran and tonight
16:01
lawmakers from both parties are
16:02
demanding more information what
both
16:05
sides are eager to know what
comes next
16:07
what's the broader strategy
here and
16:09
what's the plan for if and when
Iran
16:11
retaliates we do expect the
full Senate
16:14
will receive a classified
briefing next
16:16
week and speaker Pelosi is
demanding the
16:17
same over in the house what
would what
16:21
exactly was that was the switch
back
16:23
there I I think it's because
they he
16:26
started off with the assertion
that
16:28
nobody knew what was going on
and they
16:30
wanted to find out more and
then they
16:32
never did even addressed it
well I think
16:34
let's just talk about about that
16:36
response for a moment where all
of a
16:38
sudden Congress has some kind of
16:39
conscience and they're like
well you you
16:43
can't do that you the Congress
needs to
16:45
declare war let's just set it
straight
16:47
real quick
16:48
ever since September 11 2001 a
little
16:52
bit after that we've had the
authorized
16:55
use of military force as long
as you
16:57
couldn't use the words
terrorists in a
16:59
sentence you can operate under
that and
17:02
do anything you want
17:04
killing how do you think we got
into
17:05
into Syria under Obama Congress
didn't
17:08
authorize a war in Syria you
know if
17:11
anything Congress needs to shut
up
17:13
because we've been acting we've
we've
17:19
been conducting acts of war
against Iran
17:21
with the sanctions I consider
that to be
17:24
actual warfare they didn't
condone
17:26
actually they did condone it
Congress
17:30
has just decided stuff they
don't know
17:32
what to do because this is an
affecting
17:34
their whole strategy for the
election
17:36
now yes
17:38
well you mentioned the part of
my
17:40
Congress shut up let's go to
the CNN
17:42
version of this report this is
the an
17:44
analyst who came on CNN who
mentioned
17:47
who thought didn't think much of
17:49
sulemani he thought he was in
moron for
17:52
going into he just blows into a
rock on
17:54
his own after the embassy
attack just
17:57
shows up like you know how you
doing I'm
18:01
here to see my boys anyway just
play
18:05
this so you get it
18:06
officials in France say that
today we
18:08
may we wake up to a ward
18:09
world Democratic Senator Chris
Murphy
18:11
asks the question
18:13
did America just assassinate
without
18:15
congressional authorization the
second
18:17
most powerful person in Iran
knowingly
18:19
setting off a potential
potential
18:21
massive regional war so he's
America
18:24
safer without Sun wonnie this
morning
18:26
what I would say to senator
Murphy is
18:28
why don't you just be quiet
18:31
wind as Iran ever demonstrated
18:34
self-restraint I mean that's the
18:36
question I have so is the world
more
18:38
dangerous today maybe it's more
18:40
dangerous but when has it not
been
18:42
dangerous when have we not been
a target
18:45
of a regime like exists in
Tehran I mean
18:48
it happens as a matter of
routine what I
18:50
find an amazingly brazen is the
fact
18:53
that sulamani felt comfortable
and he
18:56
felt somewhat naive that he
could simply
18:58
show up in Baghdad and in his
role as
19:01
the leader of the IRGC in the
cooze
19:03
force he shows up and he says
hey guys
19:05
how's it going how's this
attack on the
19:07
US embassy going absolutely
brazen and
19:09
at that moment in advance we
had built
19:12
up intelligence which was
pattern of
19:14
life different forms of
intelligence and
19:16
so we had this target folder on
sulamani
19:19
and this opportunity presented
itself
19:21
and I'm certain what happened
was we
19:23
decided the president made the
19:24
determination let's pull the
trigger now
19:26
and it was I would say not
causally
19:29
linked to what occurred at the
u.s.
19:31
embassy a couple of days before
other
19:33
than he happened to be there
checking up
19:36
on what was what was taking
place he's
19:40
so smart I mean all you need is
one of
19:44
those drone target locator
devices in
19:48
your pocket also known as a
smart phone
19:50
that's how that's how you
target a guy
19:53
like that
19:54
I think I got a lot of
briefings over
19:58
the past two days so we can get
into
19:59
that in a moment I want to hear
what
20:01
other clips you have I do want
to play
20:03
one brief one here from debbie
Wasserman
20:06
Schultz she is a congresswoman
from
20:08
Florida not well-liked here on
the no
20:12
agenda show and of course she
had to go
20:15
where you mentioned just a
minute ago
20:17
that all well we all
20:18
but this is really but we know
why Trump
20:20
does these things what what I
think is
20:22
going on here right frankly is
that this
20:26
action was taken more in
president
20:28
Trump's self-interest rather
than our
20:30
national interest we had you
know
20:32
damning developments in just
the last
20:35
day where emails came out that
made it
20:38
very clear that they covered up
the real
20:41
reason behind the the
withholding of the
20:44
hundreds of millions of dollars
to
20:45
Ukraine just impeached or we
can have to
20:48
go and we need to get to the
bottom of
20:52
how and who carried helped him
carry out
20:56
this illegal cover-up to allow
him to
21:00
withhold aid to help him
politically and
21:03
personally allowance you crane
to
21:06
interfere in the presidential
election
21:08
2020 that's outrageous and I
think that
21:10
has a lot to do with what she's
way off
21:16
message here
21:19
well you know she used to write
those
21:21
messages and pretty much think
she still
21:24
has the ability to go freelance
she's
21:28
gone rogue alright okay let's
go let's
21:34
just skip the rest of the ABC
stuff it's
21:35
not that good let's go to Amy
and this
21:40
will be sue Lee rundown WTF one
demonic
21:45
States assassinated the Iranian
21:47
commander Major General Qasem
Soleimani
21:49
in a major escalation of the
conflict
21:51
between Iran and the United
States which
21:54
now threatens to engulf Iraq in
the
21:56
Middle East
21:56
president Trump authorized the
drone
21:59
strike that killed sue the
money at the
22:01
Baghdad International Airport
it killed
22:03
also four other people
including a
22:06
high-level Iraqi militia chief
this
22:09
happened Thursday night u.s.
time Friday
22:11
morning in Baghdad general
Soleimani has
22:14
long been one of the most
powerful
22:16
figures in Iran he was the
leader of the
22:18
Islamic Revolutionary Guard
Corps Cootes
22:20
force Iran's powerful foreign
military
22:23
force similar to a combination
of the
22:25
CIA and US Special Forces Iran
called
22:29
Suleiman is assassination and
active
22:31
international terrorism yeah
did you
22:36
hear what she said what what
was that
22:40
Trump called the assassination
of
22:44
sulemani and of international
terrorism
22:47
hear that again powerful foreign
22:49
military force similar to a
combination
22:51
of the CIA and US Special
Forces Iran
22:55
called sulemani s assassination
an
22:57
active internationally run not
Trump
22:59
Iran called it that
23:03
well then I'm missing time miss
heard
23:06
hope I'm hoping for the best
okay you're
23:12
losing the plot run down to me
I got if
23:19
the Islamic Republic decides to
23:20
challenge and fight a country
it will do
23:22
so unequivocally we're strongly
23:25
committed to our country's
interests in
23:26
our peace we're strongly
committed to
23:28
the dignity of our country we're
23:30
strongly committed to the
progress and
23:32
greatness of our country and if
anyone
23:34
threatens that we will without
any
23:35
hesitation to confront it and
strike it
23:38
the targeted assassination came
after
23:40
members of an Iranian backed a
rocking
23:42
militia and its supporters
attacked the
23:44
US Embassy in Baghdad and set
fire to a
23:47
gate house in response to a
slew of US
23:49
airstrikes in Iraq and Syria
that killed
23:51
two dozen members of the
Iranian backed
23:54
Iraqi militia cut the Abe
Hezbollah
23:56
these strikes were in
retaliation for
23:59
the killing of an American
contractor in
24:02
a rocket attack and care cook
Iraq a
24:03
week ago
24:08
you know I don't know about you
but it
24:12
seems to me that the Iraqis
have no
24:15
control over their own country
all this
24:16
action is Iranian oh yeah oh
yeah well
24:19
there's I mean I have a bit of
an
24:21
analysis I want to wait and see
what
24:23
what Clips we get out of the
way first
24:25
clips real aim he would get her
get her
24:28
rolling here the head of catan
Hezbollah
24:31
Abu Mehdi mohandas was also
killed in
24:35
the drone strike the New York
Times
24:37
reports general Soleimani had
flown into
24:39
Baghdad from Syria in order to
urge
24:41
irani and back militias in Iraq
to do
24:43
more to stop the wave of
anti-iran
24:46
protests that have swept Iraq
in recent
24:48
months the militias are already
accused
24:50
of killing and disappearing
protesters
24:52
and human rights activists the
Pentagon
24:55
spent more has sent more than 14
24:57
thousand US troops to the
region since
24:59
May the u.s. is now warning
American
25:02
civilians to leave Iraq
immediately the
25:05
attack has sparked fear and
alarm in
25:07
Iraq and across the world
25:09
france's Deputy Minister for
Foreign
25:11
Affairs said this morning we
are waking
25:13
up in a more dangerous world
unquote
25:16
tensions between the United
States and
25:19
Iran have been escalating since
25:20
President Trump withdrew the
u.s. from
25:22
the landmark Iran nuclear deal
and
25:24
imposed crushing economic
sanctions on
25:27
Iran in response to the
assassination
25:30
protests are planned Saturday
and at
25:32
least 30 cities across the US
as part of
25:34
a national day of action US
troops out
25:37
of Iraq now as usual Democracy
Now and
25:40
ABC and I'm sure most most
mainstream
25:43
networks in the United States
really had
25:46
no analysis it was just
regurgitating
25:49
blah blah blah on a protest and
did no
25:53
one really wasn't doing there
was no
25:55
analysis that which I actually
prefer
25:57
especially from Democracy Now
26:04
well the BBC the CIA basically
went
26:08
straight to BBC they had all
their guys
26:11
out there everybody was talking
to the
26:13
BBC and relaxants yeah okay
26:15
well I mean I think that they
were
26:18
trying well yeah I do it as
part of this
26:19
system I'm you want him yes
plant
26:21
information overseas and then
point to
26:23
it welcome in other words hum
Friedman
26:26
going on and on about the guy
being a
26:27
moron so I have a couple of
clips from
26:30
the BBC news hour regarding
well the
26:34
whole really the whole sequence
so first
26:36
about you know the actual
reasoning for
26:39
doing this well here's the clip
I've
26:41
spoken now to two officials who
were
26:43
briefed on the intelligence
that led to
26:45
this strike and what they're
both saying
26:48
is that the claim that there
was a
26:50
unitary would have claimed
26:53
what I said she in a library
way she
26:56
whispering her report it's a
very
26:58
serious matter what they're
both saying
27:01
is that the claim that there
was an
27:03
imminent attack that would have
claimed
27:04
hundreds of lives is razor thin
27:07
in fact the intelligence showed
three
27:10
things number one there was a
pattern of
27:12
travels for general Soleimani
that
27:14
showed that he had been in Iraq
in
27:16
Lebanon and in Syria meeting
with Shia
27:19
proxies that are known to have a
27:21
confrontational relationship
with the
27:23
u.s. number two there was
chatter of a
27:26
conversation between at this
general
27:28
yeah this this chatter word
actually
27:31
popped up a couple of times in
in emails
27:35
that I was said from people hey
there's
27:36
chatter over it whenever
someone says
27:39
chatter I'm thinking you're
spook unless
27:43
you're copying something from a
spook
27:45
verbatim in the news there was
chatter
27:47
of a conversation between at
this
27:50
general and the Supreme Leader
of Iran
27:52
where the general said
something on the
27:54
order of I would like to have
approval
27:57
for this operation and the
leader of
28:01
Iran
28:01
asked him to come to her on for
28:03
consultations basically not
giving a
28:05
go-ahead and thirdly there's
been a
28:07
pattern of increasing
bellicosity
28:10
towards US interests in the
area that we
28:13
saw with the attack on the
walls of the
28:15
embassy but what dear fishes
are telling
28:17
me is that even though one two
and three
28:20
are worrying it is not evidence
of what
28:23
we have been told which is this
imminent
28:25
attack so there was a
conflation if you
28:29
like of these three bits of
evidence and
28:34
a deduction that something big
was
28:37
planned and that the targets
were
28:40
American that's right and as one
28:42
official put it it was an
illogical leap
28:45
so this I thought was
interesting
28:49
because what it implies is that
there
28:52
was a difference of opinion
between the
28:55
Supreme Leader of Iran I guess
that will
28:59
be home a knee and Soleimani
and how
29:03
many didn't want him to go
ahead with
29:05
this did
29:06
to do this big strike which is
29:09
apparently what we counter
struck I
29:12
thought that was interesting
that there
29:14
may have been some disagreement
in the
29:16
ranks there Trump was
subsequently
29:21
presented with multiple a
smorgasbord of
29:24
options of things he could do
and mind
29:26
you I think that the
president's coming
29:28
into a room and the only people
he might
29:31
be able to trust there are his
daughter
29:33
and her son-in-law but then
again no
29:35
probably not everybody there
hates Iran
29:38
everybody wants to bomb the
shit out of
29:40
them so he chose the extreme
option as I
29:44
understand it the assassination
of
29:46
general Soleimani was one of
many
29:49
options being discussed as
retaliation
29:53
for the attack on an Iraqi air
base
29:56
which killed an American
contractor on
29:59
December the 27th that's right
so the
30:02
discussions appear to have
begun with
30:04
President Trump on the 27th of
December
30:07
it's following the strike that
killed
30:08
this American contractor and at
that
30:10
point he was presented what
onesource
30:13
described to me as a menu of
options
30:14
where the killing of silly
money was
30:17
basically that the far out most
extreme
30:19
measure that could be taken at
that
30:22
point on the 27th the President
himself
30:24
did not choose that option he
chose a
30:26
more moderate path which was a
strike on
30:28
several bases that were linked
to this
30:31
Iranian backed militia in Iraq
and in
30:33
the region however soon after
that what
30:36
we saw was an attack by Iranian
backed
30:39
elements on the wall of the US
Embassy
30:42
and at that point President
Trump
30:44
decided to go for this much
more extreme
30:47
option yeah yeah I'm gonna call
bullcrap
30:49
on that so Agent Orange our
military
30:53
intelligence he actually called
me
30:56
Friday he rarely does he call
he called
31:00
me to explain what he thought
was
31:01
happening I got a lot of
different
31:03
briefings from people you know
there's
31:06
some pachán ik information
that as well
31:09
but I think that something else
is going
31:12
on here and that this may have
been a
31:13
very interesting move by Trump
although
31:15
again I'm against all drone
killings I
31:18
don't like it at all
31:19
so
31:21
Toula money it was a little bit
of
31:24
background which I don't think
anyone
31:26
gave any any proper background
he's a
31:29
hero of the iran-iraq war he was
31:31
promoted to division commander
when he
31:34
was 23 well you know we've all
heard he
31:38
was you know mr. James Bond all
31:39
superstar is fantastic so it
becomes the
31:42
commander of the revolutionary
31:43
Revolutionary Guard and then
commander
31:45
of the cuds force which is it's
kind of
31:49
like Special Forces but it
really has a
31:51
different position from what I
31:52
understand it's above the the
31:54
revolutionary the the Iranian
or Armed
31:56
Forces so they have kind of
their own
31:58
special status so during when
32:03
Ahmadinejad was in power the
32:06
Revolutionary Guard there was a
32:07
privatization scheme that that
they got
32:10
underway and the RG
Revolutionary Guard
32:13
came in in possession really or
control
32:15
of a lot of important
organizations at
32:18
economic power they were given
control
32:20
over border regions the Secret
Service
32:24
the Straits of Hormuz all the
32:26
Revolutionary Guard but also
they had
32:29
smuggling networks
money-laundering
32:31
really proxy wars that's what
this guy
32:35
was doing and he was the master
of the
32:38
proxy war strategy close ties
to Putin
32:43
and you know which of course
ties into
32:46
everything that happened in
Syria so
32:48
this guy in short formidable
force he
32:51
had you know what they say
50,000 troops
32:53
armed and trained shutting down
the Gulf
32:56
of Hormuz making us shoot down
our own
32:58
drones over the of the Straits
of Hormuz
33:02
not the Gulf does the Straits
of Hormuz
33:04
whether they shot it down or we
did and
33:05
doesn't make any difference but
because
33:09
of this this guy is also a
political
33:12
force to be reckoned for and
once
33:16
Khomeini started tweeting back
at Trump
33:19
which we saw with with the
so-called
33:21
breach of the of the green zone
and the
33:25
embassy which you know you and
I this
33:27
thing is a fortress you cannot
get in
33:29
you can get in through the the
first
33:31
wall if you have a yeah they
pass and
33:34
you'd only get that part day
33:35
let you yeah and you got a pass
you can
33:37
come in there were special
forces there
33:39
I have pictures of Special
Forces there
33:41
as that was taking place so no
way was
33:43
there any danger of anything
really
33:45
happening so that may have been
part of
33:48
a setup and I think when you
see hominy
33:51
and Trump tweeting back and
forth well
33:54
we're gonna kick your ass
33:56
we'll kick 52 or your asses for
every
33:58
one of those people you had in
1979 then
34:01
I knew it the show is on
34:02
everything's determined it's
all over
34:05
this was something that
benefits hominy
34:11
it benefits him to have this
guy out of
34:13
the way Trump has wanted to
have a deal
34:15
with Iran and now they're just
playing
34:17
playing the game back and forth
to make
34:19
it all look real I think that
this may
34:23
have even been done in cahoots
with the
34:26
mullahs then with well that's an
34:28
interesting thesis because if
it's true
34:31
that he didn't want this
sulemani to do
34:34
some plan and so he's probably
pretty
34:37
much of an independent
contractor at
34:39
this point he could do it
anyway very
34:42
money has to be taken out yes
so so
34:46
there could have been some
back-channel
34:48
action saying yes okay once you
didn't
34:49
blow up up and we'll deal with
it later
34:51
now in mind you soleimani was
in Iraq
34:54
let me just get my notes here
he was in
34:57
Iraq because there was bad
blood with Al
35:01
Amir
35:04
allomere is the leader of the
Badr party
35:07
in Iraq so there was already
all kinds
35:10
of strife and I think all Emir
actually
35:13
so Allah meeya were supposed to
have a
35:14
meeting with Soleimani
35:18
he cancels sends his deputy who
also got
35:22
iced in this in this drone
strike so you
35:25
know took out his own possible
political
35:28
foe or adversary
second-in-command in
35:31
Iraq you know I'm not gonna say
Trump is
35:35
the genius mastermind behind
this I
35:38
think it would be more
something that
35:40
how many himself came up with
but to me
35:44
and every Iranian you would
speak to and
35:47
I know many of them they always
say the
35:49
same thing but how many and the
35:53
Americans are all playing
together it's
35:55
one big game and they know it
but this
35:58
guy who they got rid of I think
he may
36:01
have been a real problem and it
may
36:02
actually change things for the
better a
36:04
deal could be possibly in the
future I
36:07
certainly don't think we're
gonna see
36:09
anyone and no I don't we're not
gonna
36:12
see retaliation we already had a
36:14
sorry-ass lame fake news
bullcrap they
36:19
hacked one of the United States
36:21
government websites did you see
this
36:23
yeah of some some division I've
never
36:26
heard of there's a question
that that
36:31
has never been asked Oh buddy
ever crops
36:33
up I can't find the answer to
it and it
36:37
seems somewhat important is the
pro
36:38
genesis of the whole thing
wishes which
36:42
is to keep talking about the
american
36:45
contractor who was this guy
36:49
yeah that's a good question was
he a CIA
36:51
guy well yeah you know a guy
was he some
36:55
bonehead from Bechtel who was
it what's
36:58
his name yeah we don't know
that at
37:01
least I haven't found it but
30% of all
37:03
activity is done by contractors
this is
37:06
why these a-holes love war is
because
37:09
its commercial business you
know there's
37:11
big money it's been it's been
completely
37:13
outsourced so before we
continue let me
37:16
just give you a few choice
sound bits
37:19
here of who people think will
get killed
37:23
in retaliation or who the
possible
37:25
targets could be oh yeah we're
gonna
37:28
turn this into a really big
super shit
37:31
show yet previous US presidents
when
37:34
given the opportunity to kill
him passed
37:36
on it because they were fearful
of what
37:38
it would unleash so what could
the
37:40
consequences be this time well
this is
37:43
the problem or we don't know
but you're
37:44
absolutely right
37:46
previous administration's
certainly
37:48
thought about may have had
opportunities
37:50
as they characterized that they
passed
37:52
on those opportunities because
they
37:54
didn't know how Iran would
respond and
37:56
it's dangerous business for
states to
37:59
start killing off each other's
highest
38:01
level leaders we totally
wouldn't like
38:03
it if the Iranians killed off
someone
38:05
like a Mike Pompeo okay there's
one vote
38:12
for Mike Pompeo let's go to
Senator Tom
38:14
Udall and I think what the
president has
38:19
done here killing this major
general
38:23
that is a part of the defense
38:27
establishment in Iran is the
same thing
38:31
as if they had attacked us and
38:36
assassinated our Secretary of
Defense Oh
38:39
someplace this is getting us
into a very
38:45
bad road and putting us on a
very bad
38:47
path secretary defense of
course no one
38:50
knows s Pershore wouldn t
wouldn't even
38:52
make her the second page of the
38:54
newspaper let's talk to the
u.s. NATO
38:58
Admiral James stavridis
39:00
potentially raising the stakes
for
39:03
American military planners
39:04
military-to-military how would
you
39:07
expect the Iranians would fare
against
39:09
the u.s. they would fare badly
they
39:12
cannot match us in conventional
forces
39:14
but they are masters of
asymmetric
39:17
warfare the Iranians may turn
around and
39:20
attempt the same kind of
activity
39:22
against the US ambassador this
was a
39:26
proportional operation I Got
News for
39:28
you
39:29
nothing's gonna happen no
retaliation
39:31
this is a stupid show
39:36
and it's in you know what this
was even
39:38
to some degree predicted by our
buddy
39:45
unfortunately he's no longer
with us as
39:47
a big new Brzezinski the the
grand chess
39:51
game the architect the master
the man
39:53
who knows all the man who
fathered Mika
39:57
Brzezinski and were still
pissed off
39:59
about it
40:00
2008 he made the following
statement on
40:04
the c-span show about Iran's
40:07
relationship to the United
States and
40:10
Iran's relationship with Iraq
so the
40:12
three countries that are in
play right
40:14
here right now Iran Iraq and
the United
40:18
States we can certainly take
another
40:22
look at some recent historical
40:24
experience after 9/11 we
decided to go
40:28
into Afghanistan for obvious
reasons to
40:31
eliminate al Qaeda which
country was
40:34
close to being most helpful to
us when
40:37
we undertook that task
40:39
Iran this is completely ignored
in any
40:43
public discussion of Iran which
is
40:45
consistently painted as a
menacing enemy
40:49
of the United States there are
no
40:51
friends of ours I have no
illusions
40:52
about that but because of their
own
40:54
national interest they chose to
be
40:57
helpful to us in Afghanistan in
a very
40:59
significant way why shouldn't
they be
41:02
helpful to us in Iraq they have
mixed
41:05
interests they don't like the
Iraqis
41:08
Sunni Arabs previous rivals but
at the
41:11
same time they don't like our
presence
41:13
there I think we could discuss
some
41:15
arrangements in which perhaps
emphasize
41:18
perhaps in capital letters we
could
41:20
reach some understanding but
we'll never
41:23
know the answer that
possibility unless
41:24
we try but there certainly is
some
41:27
commonality of interest here in
a stable
41:30
Middle East and let me add one
more
41:31
dimension which should be of
importance
41:33
to most Americans we are in the
midst of
41:36
a growing energy crunch have we
spent
41:40
any time publicly discussing
what would
41:42
be the consequences for energy
41:45
of an American Iranian
accommodation
41:47
what would happen to the price
of oil
41:49
and there was this dramatic
increase in
41:51
Iranian flows what will happen
to the
41:54
objective of energy diversity
for Europe
41:57
if Iranian oil and gas could
flow
42:00
through Turkey to Europe these
are
42:02
strategic interests of ours
which are
42:05
being completely ignored in a
kind of
42:08
blind antagonism for the self
42:10
perpetuation so there's all
kinds of
42:12
reasons for us to be working
with Iran
42:16
secretly it's important that
that's the
42:19
most important part because
Saudi
42:21
Arabia's for a whole bunch of
reasons
42:26
not just oil something about
religion
42:28
they disagree on stuff
42:31
and we were their pals and we
have to to
42:34
their tune extreme you know and
we can't
42:38
be doing the bidding of Iran
which is
42:41
what we had have done by basis
on the
42:45
basis of your theory by blowing
up this
42:47
character who they did maybe
one of dead
42:49
because he's getting to be
uppity well
42:52
he's very annoying he's causing
a lot it
42:55
what he's he's he's a big dog
on campus
42:59
so yeah I think that this is
much more
43:03
devious than them we're seeing a
43:06
definitely benefits Trump by
getting
43:09
everyone off of impeachment
talking
43:11
about something else and so
there's no
43:12
doubt that that helps you know
the funny
43:15
thing about in Trump's
reputation the
43:19
right-wing talkers don't see it
the way
43:22
you do or I do for that matter
they see
43:25
it as the following Obama you
know he
43:29
had a shot at this guy he never
took it
43:32
and Clinton could have killed
Osama bin
43:35
Laden two years before 9/11 he
had a
43:38
shot at him and they wouldn't
take it
43:40
yeah so everybody had these
shots at
43:43
these guys in history would
have been so
43:44
much better if like for example
Clinton
43:46
had killed Osama bin Laden when
he had
43:49
the chance of course that
doesn't
43:51
include the possibility that
Osama bin
43:52
Laden was working for us all
along and
43:56
there and may not even be dead
by that's
44:00
beside the point
44:02
Clinton had a shot at him
didn't take
44:04
you know Obama wouldn't take a
shot even
44:06
though Obama's shooting
everybody out of
44:07
this you know with this drone
let's kill
44:10
this guy today yeah well he had
the the
44:13
the kill list Tuesday you
listen but
44:15
Trump at Trump again under
Trump there's
44:17
been more more drone killings
very
44:20
disappointed in all this and
the end the
44:23
top it off oh I can't believe
the
44:27
president said this my highest
no no it
44:39
is to uphold protect the
Constitution
44:42
that is your oath that is your
highest
44:43
order of business that is your
duty oh
44:46
god I despise that so it may
you know
44:53
what it will do for sure is set
it set
44:57
the Machine rolling everybody
gets to
44:59
tweet everybody gets to say
something
45:01
you see what Rose McGowan said
oh she's
45:04
nuts that woman dear Iran the
USA has
45:08
disrespected your country your
flag your
45:10
people 52%
45:12
of us humbly apologize she
speaks on
45:14
behalf of 52% of the country
apparently
45:16
we want peace with your nation
we are
45:19
being held hostage by a
terrorist regime
45:22
we do not know how to escape
please do
45:26
not kill us Wow is she actually
she
45:30
issued an apology or at not an
apology
45:32
an explanation of what she
meant and she
45:37
did it in a video I don't
support Iran
45:39
over America I want America to
be better
45:41
I want rave to stop and I want
Harvey
45:44
Weinstein to go to jail
45:46
she can't she can't let that go
they're
45:48
not wrong like Trump errs and
45:51
right-wingers when they're like
45:53
Hollywood's a bunch of fake
liberals I
45:55
make yeah they're not wrong
they aid and
45:57
abet many many criminals here's
the
46:00
thing I do not believe
governments I
46:02
don't believe Iran is
government I
46:05
believe in American government
Clinton
46:06
on the eve of his impeachment
launch
46:09
rockets at Iraq I mean and this
is the
46:11
weirdest part I became so
46:13
disenfranchised with the
Democrats after
46:15
learning the extent knowing how
closely
46:18
Weinstein worked with the
Democratic
46:21
Party for years how interlinked
he was
46:22
now I said he was Hollywood's
cult
46:24
leader but he was protected by
the
46:26
Democratic Party for sure so I
grew so
46:29
disenfranchised and disgusted
with them
46:30
and I'm somebody who like when
I first
46:32
moved to America when I was 10
I was
46:34
handing out vote to caucus
cigarettes in
46:36
little cellophane box to like
out and
46:39
knock on doors like a cigarette
vote to
46:41
caucus when I was at 11 I was
handing
46:43
out anti-iran pamphlets like
opposing
46:47
Sharia law and their treatment
of women
46:48
and children Moran I come from
an
46:50
extremely political family and
I was
46:53
raised this way
46:55
yeah well she's cuckoo
46:58
uh I don't think that made
anything
46:59
better for what she just said
cuz all
47:03
she can do is you know then
bring it
47:05
around to herself and Weinstein
etc
47:08
Callen Kaepernick Kaepernick
tweets
47:11
there's nothing new about
American
47:13
terrorist attacks against black
and
47:15
brown people for the expansion
of
47:17
American imperialism America
has always
47:20
sanctioned and besieged black
and brown
47:23
bodies both at home and abroad
American
47:26
militarism is the weapon
wielded by
47:28
American imperialism to enforce
its
47:31
policing and plundering of the
non-white
47:33
world thanks cap what is idiot
you know
47:38
he makes a mistake it's brown
people who
47:42
live in Sandy areas okay it's
not just
47:45
brown people universally if you
live in
47:47
sand and you're brown then you
got to
47:49
watch your back but these types
of
47:52
responses is unhinged
47:56
and well the whole thing is
unusual a
48:00
problem again yeah but the
whole thing
48:02
yeah anyway
48:04
now there's a back and forth
between
48:06
Steve Kerr who's condemning
pants for
48:11
being a liar and then Trump's
not a
48:16
sketball guys like breezes
right back to
48:18
your basketball analysis Murray
who were
48:20
that guy from fs1 accused the
entire NBA
48:25
of being in China's pocket
48:27
well the tweet about that pence
put put
48:31
out there saying well you know
this guy
48:33
is related to the 9/11 attacks
depends
48:37
is full of crap that was totally
48:38
bullcrap he's like yeah they
came from
48:41
you know they came from Iran no
I don't
48:45
understand where pence was well
Pence
48:48
was allowed to make this diss
tweet and
48:51
I think that if anyone's gonna
make up
48:53
some bullcrap retaliation list
put pants
48:55
on the top he's the number two
guy you
48:59
know he's the guy that should be
49:00
watching his back and yeah
whatever he
49:02
was tweeting that was not
approved he
49:06
was not read in I don't know
why he did
49:08
that it makes no sense yeah it
was
49:10
actually it made no sense what
a Steve
49:14
Kerr got to do with it yeah
everybody's
49:17
part of the machine if you're on
49:18
television if you have a
platform you're
49:20
part of the Machine and this
was the
49:22
reddest meet you can give the
Machine
49:24
everything everybody loves it
and
49:27
honestly it's good for our show
we got
49:29
to talk about something
different for a
49:30
little bit but what a piss-poor
analysis
49:34
from everybody just yeah it's
like it
49:37
truly looks more like wag the
dog than
49:39
anything I've seen yes very
well in fact
49:42
it started with it started with
the
49:46
shoot with the death of the
unknown
49:48
contractor right which the dog
ever
49:52
since with with the the Green
Zone with
49:54
people walking around with
brand new
49:56
flags lobbing even the the
so-called
50:01
protesters were saying these gas
50:03
canisters Americans are
shooting at us
50:05
now
50:06
because it wasn't anything was
not
50:08
intended to be anything
50:12
but I guess we'll maybe we can
crack
50:15
down at the airports maybe the
TSA I
50:17
mean this is not over yet
50:18
this this is just beginning and
I think
50:21
we'll see the security state
and getting
50:24
all Gd we've seen the stocks
are up
50:25
everybody loves that oil is
gonna go up
50:28
it's fantastic for everybody
else and a
50:30
skyrocket except for the sludge
because
50:32
of Iranian oils not even on the
on the
50:34
table but they figured that
well maybe
50:37
this will escalate and it'll
affect the
50:39
other oil-producing regions some
50:42
historical context for this
very entry
50:45
we all know the Wesley Clark
General
50:47
Wesley Clark seven countries in
five
50:49
years clip in fact I'll play it
just so
50:51
we can remember what it is seven
50:53
countries in five years
starting with
50:56
Iraq and then Syria Lebanon
Libya
50:58
Somalia Sudan and finishing off
Iran so
51:02
these were the seven countries
that we
51:05
were going to attack in five
years after
51:07
9/11 this was given to him in a
in a
51:10
verbal briefing there's no no
he handed
51:13
him a sheet of paper he tells
it a
51:22
little differently in a new
version of
51:24
the story which I've come into
51:25
possession of this is it's a
little
51:29
different the sheet of paper
was not the
51:31
actual order and I wanted to
play this
51:34
clip because it explains very
clearly
51:37
when this really started and
where this
51:39
is all coming from and who the
players
51:41
are that involved and that
there's an
51:43
entire faction in the media in
academia
51:46
in the middle of course in the
51:48
military-industrial complex and
in the
51:50
US government who want this
still today
51:53
and then I came back to the
Pentagon
51:54
about six weeks later I saw the
same
51:56
officer I said why why haven't
we
51:58
attacked Iraq we still going to
attack
52:00
Iraq he said officer he says
it's worse
52:01
than that he pulled up a piece
of paper
52:03
off his desk because I just got
this
52:05
memo he didn't hand it to him
he's
52:06
reading it to him the Secretary
of
52:08
Defense's office it says we're
going to
52:09
attack and destroy the
government's in
52:11
in seven countries in five
years we're
52:14
going to start with Iraq and
then we're
52:16
going to move to Syria Lebanon
Libya
52:18
Somalia Sudan and Iran by seven
seven
52:22
countries in five years I said
is that a
52:24
class
52:25
memo he said yes sir I said
well don't
52:29
show it to me
52:29
he was about to show it to me
sit right
52:31
there and now listen to listen
to what
52:33
he says though listen what he
says why
52:35
he doesn't want it by seven
seven
52:37
countries in five years I said
is that a
52:39
classified memo he said yes sir
I said
52:43
well don't show it to me
52:44
he was about to show it to me
so because
52:45
I want to talk about it
apparently if
52:47
you haven't actually seen the
memo then
52:49
you haven't seen the classified
52:50
information I guess this is an
52:54
interesting question because
this
52:56
brought up the you know the
people in
52:58
the some people in the
intelligence
53:00
community that can't look at
WikiLeaks
53:02
right you can hear about it but
you if
53:05
you actually see it see the
actual
53:07
document then you can this is a
question
53:11
that somebody needs to answer
for us cuz
53:12
we don't know the answer to it
Roach's
53:15
the do which is that you should
be
53:16
phrased as following if you know
53:19
something's top secret and but
you don't
53:23
know but you've not seen any
you have
53:25
not personally seen the memo
the top
53:28
secret information or you've
never been
53:30
actually shown it right but you
know
53:32
it's top secret because
somebody told
53:34
you it was and urine in the in
the
53:37
community
53:39
can you talk about it well
according to
53:42
Clarke here yes I seven seven
countries
53:45
landed in five years I said is
that a
53:47
classified memo he said yes sir
I said
53:51
well don't show it to me he was
about to
53:53
show it to me I said because I
want to
53:54
talk about it and I couldn't
believe it
53:56
would really be true but that's
actually
53:58
what happened these people took
control
54:01
of the policy in the United
States and I
54:04
realized then it came back to
me a 1991
54:08
meeting I had with Paul
Wolfowitz you
54:11
know in 2001 he was Deputy
Secretary of
54:13
Defense but in 1991 he was the
54:15
Undersecretary of defense for
policy
54:16
it's the number three position
of the
54:18
Pentagon so I called and up
there he was
54:20
available and he brought me in
and I
54:23
said to Paul I said and this is
1991 I
54:27
said mr. secretary he must be
pretty
54:28
happy with the performance of
the troops
54:30
and in Desert Storm and he said
well
54:33
yeah he said but but not really
he said
54:36
because the truth is we should
have
54:38
gotten rid of Saddam Hussein
and we
54:39
didn't he said but one thing we
did
54:42
learn he said we learned that
we can use
54:44
our military in the region in
the Middle
54:47
East and the Soviets won't stop
us he
54:50
said and we've got about five
or ten
54:52
years to clean up those old
Soviet
54:54
client regimes Syria Iran Iraq
before
55:00
the next great superpower comes
on to
55:03
challenge us it was a pretty
stunning
55:05
thing I mean the purpose of the
military
55:07
is to start Wars and change
governments
55:10
it's not the sort of deter
conflict
55:12
we're gonna invade countries
and I you
55:15
know my mind was spinning this
country
55:19
was taken over by a group of
people with
55:22
a policy coup Wolfowitz and
Cheney and
55:27
Rumsfeld and you could name a
half-dozen
55:32
other collaborators from the
project for
55:34
a new American Century they
wanted us to
55:38
destabilize the Middle East
turn it
55:40
upside down make it under our
control
55:44
and that's what's going on here
to this
55:48
day still
55:50
these jagoffs who do this stuff
55:56
interesting if we take a let's
try to
55:58
reanalyze the idea that this
sulemani
56:01
guy had to be taken out because
he was
56:03
working against those interests
hmm
56:05
because he was it he would have
led to
56:10
the possibility because what we
do the
56:12
real proof in the pudding of
the pudding
56:14
whatever of some other pudding
is is
56:17
whether or not at the end of
this whole
56:20
series of events Iran gets
rubberized or
56:24
not oh yeah I guarantee you is
not going
56:26
to happen
56:28
guaranteed is not gonna happen
what
56:30
happened here is someone went
too far
56:34
yo if you kill American boys
and girls
56:36
in the military okay that's
just justice
56:39
what happens do you kill a
contractor
56:41
like part of an American
business and
56:43
now we're pissed off that's
what I'm
56:45
seeing that's what I'm seeing
this is
56:48
disgusting hey what you hurting
that
56:52
company now this is bottom-line
stuff no
56:54
no no no we can't have that so
now how
56:58
complicit Trump was in this I
don't know
57:01
he was at mar-a-lago
behind-closed-doors
57:06
the press pool didn't see him
come in or
57:10
out really while it is during
the the
57:14
New Year celebration and
thereafter so
57:17
he might have been a big part
of it I
57:19
know most of the reports that I
have but
57:21
I still have a lot of clips
which we
57:23
don't have to play no I'm
interested if
57:25
there's anything good but there
was
57:26
mention of Trump during the
whole thing
57:29
playing golf I thought I
thought it was
57:31
eating ice cream again wasn't
that
57:33
wasn't that the report he's
playing golf
57:37
but he did the playing the golf
didn't
57:39
match the timeline because right
57:41
generally speaking plays golf
in the
57:43
morning but while we're doing
our show
57:45
right and this happened later
it was in
57:48
the early morning and over
there but he
57:52
wouldn't be playing golf after
guts gets
57:54
dark nobody plays golf at night
you can
57:56
you lose the ball yeah it's not
a great
58:00
time to play golf
58:02
yeah I don't I don't know how
complicit
58:05
he was but just looking at the
show
58:09
that's unfolding
58:10
look this is the twin this is
21st
58:14
century warfare this is 21st
century
58:16
stuff that we're we're used to
it here
58:19
Trump tweeting around by the
whatever
58:21
but for home a need for home a
need to
58:24
tweet back yeah doc that was
that was
58:28
the tell for me that's like
okay he's
58:31
like hey hey Khomeini guy
listen up
58:34
tweet back at me man come on
clap back
58:36
I'm gonna say something you say
58:37
something and I will talk about
stuff
58:39
and
58:40
you threatened I'll threaten and
58:41
meanwhile let's work on a deal
manse
58:45
work on a deal we'll work
something out
58:47
you stay in power you stay big
58:51
I think the analysis my
analysis is
58:53
clear but complete wag the dog
scenario
58:57
and we'll see how long the
media can run
59:00
with it oh they'll take it as
long as it
59:02
doe try to scare the public as
best they
59:04
can
59:05
well now the problem is for
them it's
59:07
detracting from impeachment
talk so
59:09
there are agendas here at home
they're
59:12
hand wringing over this more we
talk
59:15
about this is gonna make Trump
look good
59:17
you can't have that
59:19
there's no doubt about that on
my mind
59:22
now let's play this this is
there's Amy
59:25
she gave her now she goes on
and on with
59:27
a very long explanation of
everything
59:29
but she does bring this guy on
you know
59:31
to discuss it they never bring
anybody
59:33
on des balance it brings some
socialists
59:36
on but they did bring this guy
on and I
59:38
just want to play a little bit
of this
59:40
he's from the Quincy Institute
which is
59:42
some new think-tank and by the
way this
59:45
is where you make money these
think
59:48
tanks they just get a bunch of
money in
59:49
this case they I know who he
gets the
59:50
money from but or he put him in
the
59:53
Quincy Institute do you name it
after
59:55
some like I'm some founding
fathers kind
59:58
of named Quincy John Quincy
Adams
1:00:01
so you give us some name like
that the
1:00:03
Hamilton is yeah you use that
or you put
1:00:06
the word freedom in there yeah
freedom
1:00:09
freedom heritage all good this
got
1:00:15
absolutely nothing to tell us
that he
1:00:17
just doesn't like Trump welcome
to
1:00:19
Democracy Now tree to parcel
your
1:00:20
response to the assassination of
1:00:22
sulemani I think a couple of
former
1:00:26
Obama officials on TV yesterday
put it
1:00:29
best when they said that this
is an act
1:00:31
of war it's an act of war that
took
1:00:34
place without any consultation
with
1:00:37
Congress any approval from
Congress any
1:00:39
a thought authorization from
Congress
1:00:41
it's fascinating to see that
the last
1:00:43
couple of days
1:00:44
Pompeyo has been spending a lot
of time
1:00:46
talking to the foreign
ministers and the
1:00:49
leaders of Saudi Arabia the UAE
and
1:00:51
Israel and not until today that
he
1:00:54
actually started making phone
calls to
1:00:56
the Europeans and others so
this is
1:00:58
something that is going to be a
major
1:01:00
point of escalation it's a
decision that
1:01:02
I think ultimately
1:01:04
has made America less rather
than more
1:01:06
safe I think that's clear from
the
1:01:08
decision by the State
Department today
1:01:10
to urge all Americans to
immediately
1:01:13
leave Iraq rather than ending
these
1:01:16
endless wars that Trump
promised his
1:01:18
base that he would do he's
sending more
1:01:20
troops to the Middle East he's
doing
1:01:22
things that is further
destabilizing the
1:01:24
Middle East and that will
probably trap
1:01:26
American service when men and
women in
1:01:28
the Middle East for a longer
period of
1:01:30
time so we have the same memes
over and
1:01:35
over from all the reporters and
from
1:01:36
every analyst on this side of
the water
1:01:39
know that it makes us less safe
and
1:01:41
Congress wasn't consulted
that's it
1:01:46
that's all they got it's all
the guy
1:01:50
wasn't consulted as you pointed
out and
1:01:53
everybody really knows this
Congress
1:01:55
doesn't need to be supported or
I'm
1:01:57
sorry informed about a drone
hit on
1:02:00
someone no what have they ever
been
1:02:02
informed of it but Obama had
his hit
1:02:05
list was he calling Congress
something
1:02:06
saying what do you think Nancy
should I
1:02:08
kill this guy at the wedding we
went
1:02:10
into Syria without a
declaration of war
1:02:13
come on this I mean but that's
that's
1:02:16
just grasping at straws but more
1:02:18
importantly today here you say
that
1:02:20
there's real money and these
think tanks
1:02:21
is that possibly the exit
strategy we
1:02:24
should be looking at there's
real money
1:02:27
in these think tanks if you if
you know
1:02:29
how to manage one the you have
to have
1:02:32
we need if somebody out there
who could
1:02:34
do grantsmanship so I think we
should
1:02:36
have the curry Dvorak Lincoln
Washington
1:02:39
consortium don't you think so
does that
1:02:44
sound official Consort
consortium group
1:02:46
no what do we need curry Dvorak
Lincoln
1:02:49
Washington confab no I'm
looking for the
1:02:53
right Lincoln Washington just a
good
1:02:55
beginning curry and devorah who
are
1:02:57
those guys so just put Lincoln
1:02:58
Washington consulting i
Washington

1:04:02
our live show day is currently
1376
1:04:05
trolls on the stream we know
why because
1:04:09
it's a big day we had an event
on a show
1:04:11
day in the next show day we
break it
1:04:13
down I think we've delivered at
least a
1:04:15
reasonable deconstruction of
what is
1:04:19
taking place here certainly
better than
1:04:21
the amygdala and large and crap
you're
1:04:23
going to get on the mainstream
media in
1:04:26
the coming week with coming
days or
1:04:28
coming weeks so trolls hang out
in the
1:04:30
troll room to feed us
information to
1:04:33
throw out one-liners and
basically to
1:04:35
troll the host of any show

1:04:36
playing live on the stream

for episode 1204 we titled that
one hunt
1:04:49
the Wampus if you don't know
what that
1:04:52
means then you didn't listen to
the show
1:04:53
and it was I think by far the
best
1:04:57
popping piece of art it was
thought
1:04:59
about it was a nice piece comic
strip
1:05:02
blogger returns with the
artwork for the
1:05:06
album artwork for episode 1204
this was
1:05:08
the that it was a concept piece
it was
1:05:11
the the jail he has someone
hanging on
1:05:14
to the bars of a prison with
Chinese
1:05:16
fireworks
1:05:17
and it was Chinese because it
made look
1:05:19
the stars look like the Chinese
yeah my
1:05:22
whole thing was nice it was it
was a
1:05:23
very good piece and comics your
blogger
1:05:27
kicks off the new year with the
first
1:05:28
win for artwork
1:05:32

they're
1:05:34
already stacking up as we speak
1:05:36
artists liked that you they
kind of have
1:05:38
to listen to the show in real
time to
1:05:40
make put this art together too
right
1:05:43
after the show once we're done
once
1:05:50
we're done we choose the art
pretty much
1:05:52
within 10-15 minutes depending
on you
1:05:55
know whatever are things we're
doing to
1:05:57
get the to ship the show out
the door no
1:05:59
agenda our generator calm and
there
1:06:02
still seems to be some issues
with
1:06:03
people signing up they don't
get their
1:06:05
sign up emails and I've sent
another
1:06:07
email to us or Paul Couture
about this
1:06:10
so it seems like it's kind of
hit or
1:06:13
miss people who are able to
sign up and
1:06:15
control thing has fallen apart
that I
1:06:17
hope not internet the it's the
micro
1:06:21
services of the No Agenda show
that are
1:06:23
falling apart and boy are we
built on
1:06:25
micro servers we don't we
barely run
1:06:26
anything ourselves it's all
part of our
1:06:28
value for value network which
is the
1:06:30
great thing about it the
briefings I
1:06:33
received clips producer notes
personal
1:06:36
experience it's because the
people who
1:06:38
listen are the producers and
many of
1:06:40
them check in every single show
as an
1:06:43
executive producer or an
associate
1:06:44
executive producer because they
1:06:46
supported us financially and
we'd like
1:06:48
to thank some of these people
now we
1:06:49
think we have the whole list
Erik the
1:06:51
shill was back in the
tumbleweed terror
1:06:54
in the Pacific Northwest and is
now is
1:06:57
this a storm that's going on
that their
1:06:59
power keeps going out of their
way the
1:07:00
storms wind storm is this a
beer I've
1:07:04
not heard of this happening
yeah well
1:07:06
that's what happen with the
tumbleweeds
1:07:07
and no I mean it's happened
twice in a
1:07:10
week but is this something
historically
1:07:11
that takes place then weather
is what
1:07:14
bothers me about you me yeah we
have the
1:07:19
fires in Australia we have
these crazy
1:07:22
winters that make no sense and
not once
1:07:25
not once have you brought up
the idea of
1:07:28
a weather machine
1:07:30
[Laughter]
1:07:34
I've been waiting it's not it's
well I
1:07:37
call it as I see it
1:07:39
Australia is clearly the
arsonist who
1:07:42
they just knock on their door
and say
1:07:43
hey time to go and I don't know
what's
1:07:46
going on with Eric the show
that'll win
1:07:49
the wind was it wind is a
problem in
1:07:51
Australia too
1:07:54
well the reason those fires
routed
1:07:56
controlled because of the wind
and when
1:07:58
we had these fires in California
1:08:00
recently the Paradise firing
all the
1:08:01
rather ones last year the year
before

1:08:10
of the wind wind oh this wind

new wind I'm sorry I was
focused on the
1:08:18
wag the dog up from the wag to
the wind

1:08:23

get them ahead in life as they
grow into
1:09:41
society they're slowly
eliminating one
1:09:43
of our letters from existence

a note
1:12:54
for people out there the donors
1:12:56
especially in this category the
highest
1:12:57
category and actually all of us
that
1:13:00
unless I mean is first of all
the end of
1:13:04
the show is typically synchros
act and
1:13:07
pre produced by Adam in advance
of the
1:13:10
show thank you so swapping in a
request
1:13:14
for something at the end of the
show
1:13:15
usually doesn't work usually
especially
1:13:18
since we played this one on the
last
1:13:20
show at the end of show yeah so
don't
1:13:23
don't push in to the end of the
show
1:13:26
because that is it's it changes
things
1:13:30
thank you John something that
we've
1:13:33
normally done Sohn Liana
recently a
1:13:35
people been putting stuff at
the end and
1:13:36
Adam tries to get it and a lot
of times
1:13:38
he's simply forgotten I always
write him
1:13:40
about it because he promises to
do it
1:13:42
but it's better not to request
end of
1:13:45
show stuff yeah I mean with
2500 bucks
1:13:49
obviously you know you move to
the front
1:13:51
of the line bring my boom box
and play
1:13:58
the end of show for you in
front of your
1:13:59
house but generally speaking it
1:14:02
interferes with the way the
show is
1:14:04
structured a little bit yeah

1:14:08

gents consider this a
contribution to
1:15:00
Adam and Tina's fund to tour
Jon studio
1:15:08
hopefully it will cover some of
Adam's
1:15:10
breach of the non death non
denigration
1:15:14
agreement it was as well well
I've
1:15:16
gotten a lot of comments about
your
1:15:19
request for a non-disclosure if
I were
1:15:22
to be allowed by Google's grace
to see
1:15:26
your studio for once in my life
and a
1:15:30
lot of people responded
immediately by
1:15:32
saying that they were shocked
1:15:34
I mean shocks they tell me that
you of
1:15:37
all people who considers
non-disclosures
1:15:40
to be an incredible breach on
First
1:15:43
Amendment rights and freedom of
speech
1:15:44
so it's quite odd that you
would take
1:15:46
this as a tool against your your
1:15:50
colleague but otherwise you
that I can
1:15:53
see somebody coming up with
that sure
1:15:55
and I agree I think I shied the
last guy
1:15:58
I should be demanding
non-disclosures
1:16:01
non-disparagement documents to
be signed
1:16:03
right all right yeah everybody
out there
1:16:06
is exactly right cuz I hate
these things
1:16:08
are stupid but yet you're going
to make
1:16:10
me sign one so I can't talk
trash about
1:16:12
your studio even though I would
only say
1:16:14
nice already you've already
given it
1:16:15
away you gave it away right
there you
1:16:17
couldn't you couldn't help
yourself
1:16:18
without even seeing the studio
you said
1:16:21
you're gonna talk trash
1:16:22
about it no that's your
insinuation that
1:16:24
I would talk trash about it why
why why
1:16:28
are you worried what in what do
you what
1:16:30
are you hiding what do you have
to hide
1:16:31

oldest
1:17:10
they've been around for Sam yes

interesting guy

many of our kind of guy very
interesting
1:17:52

in Riyadh and I had a IDIA and
I had an
1:18:18
opportunity to show them around
this
1:18:20
fascinating country they left

1:18:23
and despite Saudi Airlines best
efforts
1:18:26
actually got home to middle
America a
1:18:29
few hours ago and so now he can

1:18:32
now he can talk because now
he's alone
1:18:34
again
1:18:36
now the countdown begins to our
next
1:18:39
meeting regarding dr. Bronner's
castile
1:18:42
soap I'm a couple of years
younger than
1:18:44
Adam but when I was a boy scout
dr.
1:18:48
Bronner always came along in my
backpack
1:18:50
on camping trips well it was
somewhat
1:18:52
effective as somewhat effective
as soap
1:18:55
it was exceptionally aromatic
which
1:18:58
after a few days on the trail
was also
1:19:00
appreciated according to the
microscopic
1:19:04
print on the balls have you
ever seen
1:19:05
when he's polish yes I did and
I love
1:19:08
his little run down here of
what's
1:19:09
actually on the bottle in the
1:19:11
microscopic print yeah he says
dr.
1:19:15
Bronner can serve as a shampoo
body soap
1:19:18
dog soap dishwashing soap
laundry soap
1:19:21
toothpaste mouthwash deodorant
massage
1:19:25
oil and ice cream topping
useless drinks
1:19:29
mixer head grease or personal
lubricant
1:19:32
motor oil refreshing beverage
laxative
1:19:36
solvent antiseptic bug
repellent etc
1:19:42
really a great product it does
all those
1:19:48
things poorly truly a
miraculous product
1:19:51
i everyone should keep a bottle
close to
1:19:53
the hand and surprisingly
despite as
1:19:56
many uses it's not on saudi
arabia's
1:19:58
prohibited list so everyone's
soap up I
1:20:04
was mesmerised by the multiple
you know
1:20:07
when I was on the Middle East
at one
1:20:09
time it is before I can before
9/11
1:20:11
you couldn't even bring up a
cell phone
1:20:13
or a camera in to Saudi Arabia
oh no no
1:20:17
I was mesmerised by the
multiple usages
1:20:19
but was smart enough even than
to know
1:20:23
that despite is useful nature
the
1:20:27
political rantings of dr.
Bronner's
1:20:30
manifesto was BS hopefully the
1:20:34
Millennial fascination stops at
the
1:20:36
doctor's cleansing properties
certainly
1:20:39
listening to the No Agenda show
aka the
1:20:42
best podcast in the universe is
an
1:20:44
antidote enough to counter any
of these
1:20:47
multi-purpose more Kuro
1:20:50
of effects which is talking
about that
1:20:52
the messaging on there's a
bunch of
1:20:53
communist stuff yeah anyway
here's to
1:20:57
another year of no agenda
continued
1:21:00
presence of the cornerstone of
my
1:21:03
amygdala management program may
we the
1:21:09
know Jenna community cult find
blessings
1:21:14
abundant in the new year now

dose of
1:21:50
contract buyout negotiation
karma I
1:21:53
could really use it
1:21:55
please feel free to edit for
brevity I
1:21:58
would add my input to the
ongoing
1:22:01
dissection of Millennials and
our sad
1:22:04
idiosyncrasies I'm a 28 year
old full
1:22:07
attack development or full
stack full
1:22:10
attack full stack full stack is
a full
1:22:13
stack guy full stack guy full
stack full
1:22:17
stack developer end curving
Texas Jon
1:22:21
hit me in the mouth root wit
more than a
1:22:23
decade ago I've never heard of
anyone
1:22:26
using venmo to pay their bills
but is
1:22:29
widely used as a replacement
for cash
1:22:31
I've only seen it that's right
van
1:22:33
moseub is a millennial thing
well they
1:22:35
don't have one of the lists of
n we
1:22:37
talked about it because venmo
had an
1:22:39
outage and people were freaking
out
1:22:40
because they could not pay
their bills
1:22:43
they definitely pay bills with
it yeah
1:22:46
fact fact I've only seen it
ever being
1:22:50
used dr. Bronner's grandma pine
tar so
1:22:53
for years extensive use of
subtitles is
1:22:55
all yes that's another one
subtitles -
1:23:00
real as a small get-together
you know
1:23:03
I've talked about this
1:23:04
Nik Jays fiancé
1:23:09
I said I come in there the TV
room
1:23:11
Anushka is there watching
something and
1:23:13
it's got the subtitles on ah
1:23:14
I said subtitles are subtitles
he's and
1:23:17
he claims he's a musician he
claims that
1:23:22
the subtitles are on because
their sound
1:23:24
is poorly mixed you know John
we've only
1:23:26
talked about this for 50 days
1:23:29
subsequently I don't know why
it's
1:23:31
coming back up as a small girl
gets a
1:23:33
small get-together in
Millennials a girl
1:23:36
asked him I'm reading again to
turn on
1:23:39
the subtitles because she
couldn't
1:23:40
understand the Boston accents
of The
1:23:42
Departed Wow I wouldn't allow it
1:23:45
Adam I I owe you a report on my
1:23:50
experience with companies that
prey on
1:23:52
the people who have fallen prey
to the
1:23:54
everyone can code bs yours in
exile so
1:23:59
two things one
1:24:02
yes we've discussed quite
extensively
1:24:05
the abundant millennial use of
subtitles
1:24:10
a lot of this is because of
distracted
1:24:12
second screens a lot of it is
definitely
1:24:14
because of the 5-1 sound makes
that is
1:24:17
being jammed through a
shitty-ass a
1:24:18
sound bar that's another issue
big
1:24:21
problem in fact maybe one of
the main
1:24:23
ones and there's also a
cognition issue
1:24:25
that's taking place because
people are
1:24:27
so used to reading little short
bits of
1:24:30
text is just like a tweet each
of these
1:24:32
subtitle cards that pops up
people are
1:24:35
losing the actual ability to
translate
1:24:38
sound into something that they
can
1:24:41
recognize in their brain that
we're all
1:24:44
gonna be deaf eventually we'll
just be
1:24:46
reading subtitles everywhere
well what's
1:24:49
interesting to me is not
understanding
1:24:51
the really mild Boston accent
or any
1:24:54
Boston accent it's not that hard
1:24:57
well I think another problem
and is when
1:25:01
you when you don't when you're
not
1:25:03
exposed to accents you see this
a lot
1:25:05
with love island UK which was
really big
1:25:10
during the season which is a
stupid
1:25:12
reality show but everyone's
speaking in
1:25:15
a very British accent you know
very
1:25:17
slang ish as well and it's it's
you know
1:25:20
you got a folk
1:25:22
and listen and having lived
there I
1:25:24
think I know a lot of the slang
but I
1:25:26
think when people use crutches
1:25:28
continuously then you lose the
ability
1:25:30
to understand what someone's
saying
1:25:32
through an accent or even in a
different
1:25:35
language I can hear someone
speak in any
1:25:37
language they can pretty much
pick out
1:25:39
what they mean if it's a simple
thing
1:25:41
just because I've been around
language
1:25:43
and I've had to decode it by
listening
1:25:46
to it I think people you lose
that
1:25:48
ability the brain is very very
good at
1:25:50
parsing stuff you have some
exposure to
1:25:52
some you know maybe a little
bit of
1:25:54
French might help a little bit
of
1:25:55
Spanish you can understand a
lot of
1:25:57
different languages but not if
you're
1:25:59
just always reading a
translation or a
1:26:02
subtitle I think you lose it
you don't
1:26:05
use it you lose it
1:26:09
onward but did he want any car
more
1:26:12
gamers little Karma for all
that all
1:26:15

the other big story in my
opinion which
1:30:01
wasn't covered as much and but
I thought
1:30:03
was much more intriguing is the
is the
1:30:06
gold story now this is the the
1:30:10
automobile executive who was I
guess he
1:30:15
was kicked out of his job and
arrested
1:30:16
he was or he was going to he
was in
1:30:18
house arrest and he was going
to come
1:30:20
forward on some unspecified
financial
1:30:24
shenanigans charges which
looked and
1:30:29
tried the only thing I could
find and
1:30:32
maybe you have an answer here
in these
1:30:33
clips from what I understand
the only
1:30:36
thing that was a problem was his
1:30:40
apparent wish to have a merger
between
1:30:43
Nissan and Renault is that
right and now
1:30:49
there's more to it than this is
really
1:30:51
interesting
1:30:51
yeah I'd love to know well
let's let's
1:30:53
play a couple of clips and then
I'll
1:30:55
discuss what I think it's going
okay
1:30:56
this play goes in through
Turkey one so
1:31:01
for what Turkey has said is
that it has
1:31:03
launched an investigation the
Istanbul
1:31:05
prosecutor's office has is
looking into
1:31:08
it now and they have detained
seven
1:31:10
people as you mentioned four of
them
1:31:12
pilots one is a manager at a
private
1:31:15
aviation company as well as two
ground
1:31:17
staff service workers so the
Istanbul
1:31:21
police now is going to be going
through
1:31:22
their testimony trying to piece
together
1:31:24
what happened and what we know
about
1:31:27
this mystery this puzzle is
that there
1:31:29
was a flight that took off from
Osaka
1:31:31
Japan and landed in Istanbul a
little
1:31:33
while later another flight took
off from
1:31:35
Istanbul and went to Beirut
that all
1:31:38
coinciding with the timeline of
guns
1:31:40
mysterious disappearance back
to Beirut
1:31:44
and the Istanbul police now are
trying
1:31:46
to figure out what happened on
the
1:31:48
ground in Istanbul atatürk
Airport
1:31:50
that's Istanbul main
international
1:31:53
airport it was the Commission
just a
1:31:54
while ago and now only services
cargo
1:31:57
planes and private jets like
the one
1:32:00
that gone is suspected of having
1:32:02
maybe some of the testimony
that the
1:32:05
Turkish police gather from
these seven
1:32:07
detained suspects will shed
light on the
1:32:10
mystery of what's happening and
the
1:32:12
international the Interpol the
red
1:32:14
notice that has been issued is
basically
1:32:17
going to make it a bit more of
an
1:32:19
international issue for gone
but there
1:32:21
is no extradition between
Lebanon and
1:32:24
Japan so the likelihood of him
being
1:32:27
returned to Japan is very low
and that
1:32:29
Interpol red notice of course
is just a
1:32:32
request to international law
enforcement
1:32:34
and it's not an order so what
will
1:32:37
happen what will come out of
that is
1:32:38
something we just don't know at
this
1:32:40
point what we do know that here
in
1:32:42
Turkey at least one small part
of the
1:32:44
puzzle now is in the hands of
the
1:32:46
Istanbul police and perhaps
they will be
1:32:48
able to shed some light on how
gone got
1:32:51
away again everyone focusing on
how he
1:32:54
got away instead of why he had
to get
1:32:56
away in the in the first place
yes in
1:32:58
fact there's a bunch of crazy
stories
1:33:00
about this which is like he was
put in a
1:33:03
double bass cello case and
hauled out of
1:33:07
there and all the rest of it
and then
1:33:08
there's another story where he
escaped
1:33:10
his house what happened was he
was
1:33:12
actually in jail so let's start
there I
1:33:16
thought it was under house
arrest he was
1:33:18
in jail and then they he had a
lawyer
1:33:22
that had begged and begged and
begged
1:33:23
there's no reason to keep this
guy in
1:33:25
jail he should go to his house
and they
1:33:26
could keep him there under
house arrest
1:33:28
and under surveillance mhm and
so they
1:33:31
gave him bail let him go home
and
1:33:33
supposedly the one of the
stories is he
1:33:36
was the cello case which makes
no sense
1:33:41
what's funny the other one he
put on a
1:33:43
mask
1:33:45
and a hat and a beard and just
walked
1:33:46
out of there and went straight
to the
1:33:48
airport and took off mm-hmm
under all
1:33:50
this elaborate surveillance I'm
thinking
1:33:53
first of all they wanted it
they did
1:33:56
Jeff this is an embarrassment
to the jab
1:33:58
and I thought you promised me
you're
1:34:01
gonna tell me why why they
because he
1:34:04
understated his income tax
that's the
1:34:08
reason why that's the main
reason why
1:34:11
and then they started digging
into and
1:34:13
apparently the company they
lied about
1:34:15
how much they paid him and it's
all
1:34:17
about income and so then it's
all and
1:34:19
then the company wasn't making
a lot of
1:34:21
money they didn't know what to
do with
1:34:23
this guy they wanted to get him
out and
1:34:24
I believe the following this
guy was
1:34:27
trying to orchestrate and then
there was
1:34:29
a fallout between Renault and
Nissan
1:34:31
during Japanese can't work with
a French
1:34:35
let's be fair nobody can work
with the
1:34:38
French really so he so they
that didn't
1:34:41
work out and he's not was
losing you
1:34:43
weren't losing money they were
still in
1:34:44
a profitable company but they
weren't
1:34:46
making the billions and
billions are
1:34:47
supposed to make his Toyota's
making all
1:34:49
the money
1:34:50
I think the following they
didn't want
1:34:54
this guy to stand trial and he
still
1:34:58
claims he's gonna spill the
goods on
1:35:01
Nissan and maybe it's a corrupt
1:35:04
organization he claims he's
gonna have a
1:35:07
press conference and to tell
all but
1:35:09
they had to get rid of him they
couldn't
1:35:11
bring him on up to trial so
they they
1:35:13
let him walk out of there oh
he's got a
1:35:15
mask and a dog yeah you can go
because
1:35:18
the embarrassment of whatever
was
1:35:19
happening with the merger or not
1:35:21
happening with the merger or
what kind
1:35:22
of crap is going on with Nissan
okay and
1:35:26
also the one I think this is
even more
1:35:28
primary the Japanese and you
can talk to
1:35:33
people who have been involved
in the 80s
1:35:35
especially when the Japanese
were
1:35:37
kicking everybody's butt
economically
1:35:38
and there was a riot every we
should all
1:35:41
do it the Japanese do you know
cuz the
1:35:43
Japanese economy is gonna kill
us or
1:35:45
there's so much Sony was going
to own
1:35:47
the world I remember it once
the Walkman
1:35:49
came out we like that's it they
got
1:35:51
Betamax they got the Walkman
they're
1:35:53
gonna own all of us
1:35:56
so the Japanese if anyone you
know has
1:36:00
worked for a Japanese company
United
1:36:01
States during that era there
were these
1:36:03
things called the death bus's
then I had
1:36:06
a guy who explained it to me in
great
1:36:07
detail just as losses yeah
1:36:10
you'd be running a Japanese
operation
1:36:12
here in the United States it
was mostly
1:36:14
Americans and then once you
started
1:36:16
making profit that you weren't
getting
1:36:18
profitable and everything was
going well
1:36:19
the so-called death buses would
come in
1:36:22
and these were your
replacements oh who
1:36:25
you had to train long Japanese
right so
1:36:32
the death buses so the Japanese
do not
1:36:34
like I'm ever stringer that guy
who ran
1:36:37
this sony Sony the Sony Music
Group or
1:36:40
the Entertainment Group yeah the
1:36:41
Japanese do not like to be
shown up by
1:36:45
foreigners right huh so they
have a guy
1:36:48
running one of their basic major
1:36:50
companies Nissan Motors and
they they
1:36:55
didn't lie I think they just
didn't like
1:36:56
this guy because he was
probably moving
1:36:59
them to in a direction that was
not
1:37:01
Japanese e-enough and they they
they
1:37:04
railroaded him and then finally
dragged
1:37:06
it got him out of town he got
himself
1:37:08
out of town and he's gonna talk
about it
1:37:11
eventually but this whole thing
stinks
1:37:13
and the other guy does look
like mr.
1:37:16
bean and is the whole story
this spooky
1:37:19
story is could this somehow
also be
1:37:22
related to the to another
merger with I
1:37:25
think it's Pozzo and Citroen
are they is
1:37:28
it not Pujo and Citroen who are
merging
1:37:30
who is I just heard this the
other day
1:37:31
well that could be but it would
just
1:37:32
would have nothing to do with
it this is
1:37:35
a Renault which is different
since it
1:37:39
was French and it's it was yeah
I was
1:37:42
French Renault and now it looks
as
1:37:44
though did the deal that was
gonna come
1:37:45
down it looked like well this
guy was
1:37:48
still there was that since the
Renault
1:37:50
thing wasn't working out it
looked as if
1:37:53
Chrysler which is privately
owned was
1:37:56
going to buy Nissan and Renault
and do
1:37:59
the whole thing itself out of
town right
1:38:02
but now we have Chrysler
agreeing to
1:38:05
merge with Pujo and and Citroen
yeah
1:38:08
well they gave up
1:38:09
on this because there's
something up and
1:38:11
it's the Japanese culture and I
think
1:38:14
they didn't like this guy you
ran him
1:38:16
out of town he's you know he's
1:38:17
introducing foreign ideas I
don't know
1:38:19
but it did the whole thing is
suspect
1:38:22
and and he escaped
1:38:25
they let him escape there's no
way he
1:38:27
was gonna get past the
surveillance and
1:38:29
all the rest of it so and how
would the
1:38:32
story still has continues to
unfold I
1:38:34
just thought it was the funnier
story of
1:38:36
the two what is the what's in
the second
1:38:40
clip
1:38:42
the second clip is it's more of
the same
1:38:45
we play it out yes on that
Carlos gon
1:38:49
investigation now reports just
out in
1:38:51
Lebanon say the government has
received
1:38:53
an Interpol arrest warrant for
Carlos
1:38:56
gone now the former Nissan
Chairman
1:38:57
arrived in Lebanon on Tuesday
after
1:39:00
jumping bail in Japan where he
was
1:39:03
awaiting trial meanwhile police
in
1:39:05
Turkey have detained seven
people
1:39:07
including four pilots and a
private
1:39:08
airline on suspicion of helping
GaN
1:39:12
escape rule to soothe now is
live for us
1:39:15
an instable
1:39:16
assemble with the latest I mean
go look
1:39:20
at the plot thickens here
Turkey's
1:39:21
demanding answers we now have
this
1:39:23
Interpol alert do officials
there have
1:39:26
any idea how Turkey was
incredible that
1:39:29
certainly gone thinks he's free
and
1:39:31
clear now especially as he
remains in
1:39:32
Lebanon he will likely speak to
the
1:39:34
media in the next few days but
in the
1:39:35
meantime the Japanese are
trying to
1:39:36
piece this together as well so
1:39:39
embarrassing for them
considering this
1:39:41
was supposed to be a man who
was under
1:39:43
surveillance
1:39:44
absolutely I mean this is quite
an
1:39:46
embarrassment for the Japanese
this was
1:39:48
a very high-profile individual
for them
1:39:50
and their legal system was
working to
1:39:53
basically bring him to justice
and
1:39:55
instead of that happening he's
now fled
1:39:57
in this audacious escape and we
don't
1:40:01
have a lot of answers for it
but Gorn is
1:40:02
expected to speak and so far
what he
1:40:04
said has been very very
critical of the
1:40:07
Japanese justice system he's
called it
1:40:09
rigged he said that it's
discriminatory
1:40:11
so all in all a very
embarrassing moment
1:40:15
for Japan and at this point now
that
1:40:18
he's in Lebanon there isn't
much that
1:40:21
they can do to bring this man
to justice
1:40:23
in front of their own legal
system
1:40:26
regardless of what's happening
here and
1:40:28
it seems like the media is only
focusing
1:40:32
on his escape and how he
escaped and did
1:40:35
he get into a musical
instrument case or
1:40:37
did he take a covert and
chartered jet
1:40:41
flights but no one's focusing
on the
1:40:43
real news and I thought
honestly from
1:40:45
your T's in the newsletter I
thought
1:40:47
we'd get a little bit more
about what
1:40:48
actually is going on with this
guy and
1:40:50
with Nissan and this supposed
merger or
1:40:54
failed merger
1:40:55
but there's another backdrop
and that is
1:40:57
that Japan is now our ally in
the Strait
1:41:00
of Hormuz and they're moving
their fleet
1:41:02
in there so maybe there's some
1:41:04
embarrassment that's taking
place it's I
1:41:08
don't know if there's any
connection at
1:41:10
all this guy by the way I
should be
1:41:12
mentioned that he's kind of
spooky
1:41:14
he's got passports from France
three or
1:41:17
four different paths Lebanon
and he's
1:41:19
got a passport from Brazil yeah
which is
1:41:23
another place if you want to go
and hide
1:41:25
out somewhere they we should
all not
1:41:27
extradition with everyone we
should all
1:41:29
have a Brazilian passport
actually we
1:41:31
see what I posted that one just
in case
1:41:34
but well you inspired me on the
previous
1:41:38
show with your retrospectives
1:41:40
and that the big and actually
was two
1:41:42
shows ago the big the big
stories of
1:41:45
2019 and I wanted to follow
that up and
1:41:48
I was actually planning on
peppering
1:41:50
this throughout today's episode
but
1:41:52
we're already halfway through
here are
1:41:55
some of the big stories that
were not
1:41:57
recapped at the end of 2019 the
one that
1:42:01
you mentioned specifically and
I think
1:42:04
really these would go as the
big media
1:42:05
misses of 2019 let's just
remember how
1:42:09
accurate your m5m stations were
in the
1:42:14
past year we start with the
story that
1:42:17
no one wants to talk about
anymore
1:42:18
jussie Smollett Empire star
Jesse
1:42:22
Smollett was the victim of a
vicious
1:42:23
racist and homophobic attack his
1:42:26
attackers hurled racial and
homophobic
1:42:29
slurs not only talk about
racism we're
1:42:32
talking about hate with
steroids they
1:42:35
are looking for two suspects
who were
1:42:36
apparently wearing make America
great
1:42:39
again hats the offender's
uttered this
1:42:41
is mega country
1:42:42
this is stomach-turning mind
boggling
1:42:46
information telling this is a
horrible
1:42:48
story
1:42:48
yeah parentis and unacceptable
1:42:51
this is America in 2019 so let
me see
1:42:55
did they get that one right
John that
1:42:56
Jessie small that story did
they did
1:42:58
they were they right on the
money with
1:42:59
that
1:43:00
wrong wrong let's try another
one how
1:43:03
about the covington high school
kids
1:43:05
with the Native American War
hero
1:43:09
outraged over this now viral
video
1:43:12
showing high school teenagers
harassing
1:43:14
a Native American elder well
the Native
1:43:17
American man who was beating
the drum
1:43:18
Nathan Phillips and those kids
and the
1:43:20
make America great again hats
that we're
1:43:22
kind of smirking at him and
kind of
1:43:23
looking down their noses at him
as one
1:43:25
smirking high school student
blocks the
1:43:27
elders path the video appears
to show
1:43:29
dozens of youths wearing make
America
1:43:32
great again hats mocking Native
American
1:43:34
elder and Vietnam veteran Mason
Phillips
1:43:36
a veteran a Native American man
was you
1:43:39
know how to standoff with
students who
1:43:41
were you know mocking him we
feel that
1:43:44
President Trump is giving
license to
1:43:46
some of this behavior
1:43:47
let me see were they right
about that
1:43:49
one John about the about the
kids
1:43:51
smirking and no wrong wrong Joe
Biden
1:43:58
likes to touch people's sniff
their hair
1:44:01
especially children let's remind
1:44:05
ourselves how the media handled
this
1:44:07
story when people's first
started to get
1:44:09
creeped out by him very
affectionate I
1:44:12
find people on the mouth he
shouldn't
1:44:16
he's always touching people's
shoulders
1:44:17
I've seen him rub the shoulders
of women
1:44:20
and men Joe Biden calls them
expressions
1:44:24
of affection he is an
affectionate
1:44:26
old-school politician he's a
really nice
1:44:28
generous funny connecting guy
1:44:31
Uncle Joe as we affectionately
call him
1:44:33
he's a very affectionate very
likable
1:44:36
person you know he's just an
1:44:37
affectionate guy I've know Joe
Biden a
1:44:39
long time as I many others and
have
1:44:41
always found him a very
emotional man
1:44:42
who is very very affectionate
1:44:45
he's touchy-feely he's been
doing it in
1:44:48
his entire life in a an
affectionate way
1:44:51
I think the next time I see Joe
Biden if
1:44:53
he doesn't hug me and give me a
kiss and
1:44:55
hold my hand that's not the Joe
Biden I
1:44:57
knew he's a nice guy
1:44:58
he's not a predator and this is
1:45:00
ridiculous so do they still
talk like
1:45:03
that about Joe are they little
more
1:45:05
creeped out about it now this
this is
1:45:08
why you listen and why you help
produce
1:45:11
the No Agenda show because this
is the
1:45:13
bullcrap that the media puts
into your
1:45:15
head 24 hours a day if you
allow it and
1:45:19
it goes through your eardrums
into your
1:45:22
brain processing and then
swells up your
1:45:24
amygdala and then you become
insane
1:45:26
let's check another one
1:45:27
um remember the Trump meme
where he was
1:45:33
shooting all the media was
killing them
1:45:37
which was from the from the
movie what
1:45:40
movie was that in the church
what was
1:45:45
that again
1:45:45
did you just walk away you just
walked
1:45:49
away you just walked away from
the show
1:45:51
it's like it's like here I am
I'm
1:45:54
looking for my wingman to
introduce you
1:45:58
something I have to go get a
sheet of
1:46:00
paper from the desk and then
you then
1:46:03
you threw it to me for some
unknown
1:46:05
reason because I don't know
that movie
1:46:07
Kingsman yes you do Kingsman Oh
Kingsman
1:46:09
yeah you know I never got to
see the
1:46:10
second one well but you know you
1:46:12
remember the meme where they
had all the
1:46:14
mainstream media logos on the
people in
1:46:17
the church and Trump was there
with his
1:46:19
head killing them all in the
night right
1:46:22
this video do you remember what
about
1:46:24
what how horrible that was I
was going
1:46:26
to kill everybody in the media
yeah
1:46:31
video was shown at a conference
you know
1:46:35
whose supporters it's about so
much more
1:46:37
than a single video it's about a
1:46:40
president and his supporters
who were
1:46:41
sowing seeds of hate and
division
1:46:43
there's something very ugly at
the heart
1:46:45
of trumpism and we saw that in
in this
1:46:48
video it's vile
1:46:49
some of his supporters would
think this
1:46:51
might even be somehow funny you
know
1:46:53
there are real people's bodies
and lives
1:46:55
on the last easy for all of you
judging
1:46:58
me that I'm offended and upset
by the
1:46:59
video you try doing this once a
member
1:47:01
of your family is continued to
have this
1:47:03
happen over and over and over
again now
1:47:07
did anyone from the media die
and
1:47:12
did anyone at the end of 2019
wrap up
1:47:16
the Muller report about how
right the
1:47:18
media was and how spot-on they
were with
1:47:20
their analysis oh you mean how
it was
1:47:23
that he was doomed because of
the Muller
1:47:24
report he's gonna be delivering
what I
1:47:26
think are gonna be his
indictments the
1:47:28
final indictments this is
suborning
1:47:29
perjury I think there's no
question it's
1:47:32
an impeachable offense and at
that point
1:47:34
we are in high crimes that
misdemeanor
1:47:35
and we are an impeachment the
spirit of
1:47:38
what Trump did is clearly
treasonous
1:47:40
there's outright treason I
think he's
1:47:43
feeling the noose around his
neck
1:47:44
the noose is tightening he
feels the
1:47:46
noose is tightening the noose is
1:47:48
tightening people might go to
jail
1:47:49
you're exactly right that's
their lives
1:47:52
I think they're all going to
jail well I
1:47:54
think they're all going to end
up
1:47:55
together in prison and maybe
that's why
1:47:56
he has no idea that right he's
going
1:48:00
down the investigation is over
and
1:48:02
according to a senior DOJ
official there
1:48:04
will be no further indictments
how can
1:48:07
they let Trump off the horse did
1:48:10
everyone go to jail with the
indictments
1:48:13
imminent was the report of any
1:48:15
significance no apparently not
now I've
1:48:20
one more last one okay last one
this has
1:48:23
got to be my favorite because
it's been
1:48:26
so many it's been years since
they first
1:48:28
laid this smack on us and it's
good to
1:48:30
remember how incredibly wrong
the media
1:48:33
were or was about the steel
dossier
1:48:38
parts of the now-infamous
dossier on
1:48:40
Trump have proven to be true
your Intel
1:48:43
community has corroborated all
of the
1:48:46
details in there that when the
president
1:48:47
just refers to a fake dossier
that is
1:48:50
false I I don't think that's
bad that's
1:48:53
the accurate characterization
back to
1:48:54
Gators have corroborated part
of the
1:48:57
dossier we do know that parts
of it have
1:48:59
been corroborated it's not been
1:49:01
corroborated but it hasn't been
1:49:03
disproven no major thing from
the
1:49:05
dossier has been conclusively
disproven
1:49:07
to date none of it has been
disproven
1:49:10
and whole big parts of it are
holding up
1:49:12
its dossier
1:49:14
holds up well it's a fact that
none of
1:49:17
not one word have been
disproven in fact
1:49:19
a lot of it turned out to be
right on
1:49:21
the money
1:49:22
the FBI would not have just
taken a
1:49:24
dossier to the FISA Court and
use that
1:49:27
as their predicate for the
surveillance
1:49:29
they had to corroborate it
themselves
1:49:31
that's how they operate so if
you're
1:49:34
wondering or someone in your
family is
1:49:37
wondering why you listen to
this podcast
1:49:39
that's why and I'm sure we can
do the
1:49:43
same thing with this iran/iraq
soleimani
1:49:46
thing at the end of this year
you know
1:49:49
the funny thing about that
dossier story
1:49:51
is that Oh Lords we didn't
document as
1:49:54
specifically is the way the
dossier
1:49:57
story kept changing and
morphing in
1:50:00
regards to the FISA Court yes
when they
1:50:03
first came out they said well
it wasn't
1:50:05
that important to our fights or
you know
1:50:07
requests yeah and then it became
1:50:09
important to the fight then it
was
1:50:11
apparently was the only thing
that it
1:50:13
was divisive request was based
on was
1:50:15
the dossier this dossier was a
I don't
1:50:18
understand how it it got as far
as it
1:50:21
did cuz it was just look phony
from the
1:50:24
get-go it has stunk and he had
a smell
1:50:29
test I might get a clipped for
Thursday
1:50:32
it's an interview with the
author of the
1:50:34
book the I think it's the the
plot to
1:50:36
bring down the American
president forget
1:50:39
exactly what the title of the
book is
1:50:40
and this guy has done all the
research
1:50:43
and his assertion is that the
dossier
1:50:46
was not used for the FISA
warrant
1:50:50
application it was written
specifically
1:50:53
for the Flexer warrant
application by
1:50:57
slipping in one or two very
pertinent
1:50:59
lines which literally say the
Trump is
1:51:04
compromised by a foreign power
and that
1:51:08
that line and not but that was
written
1:51:10
in specific that's interesting
enough
1:51:12
that makes that it's that it's
exactly
1:51:14
reversed that that the the
steel dossier
1:51:18
was not the genesis of the
warrant but
1:51:22
they knew they wanted to get
this
1:51:24
warrant so they had they
created this
1:51:26
through steel and you know
there's lots
1:51:28
of implications as
1:51:30
was complicit in writing this
anyway I
1:51:33
digress
1:51:33
I'm reminded I want to just
want to just
1:51:36
ran into because I was going
through
1:51:37
some of my old files and I
forgot about
1:51:40
it this was from a year earlier
and this
1:51:43
was classic because everybody
bought
1:51:45
into this and they bought into
a hook
1:51:48
line & sinker and they've all
since
1:51:49
forgotten forgotten about it
Donald
1:51:53
Trump's guerrilla channel Trump
like the
1:51:57
watch television but he was the
girl
1:51:59
you're right I got about that
he had to
1:52:02
watch guerrillas so they
created a fake
1:52:05
channel for him so he could
watch
1:52:06
guerrillas and so they as he
watched the
1:52:09
girls she's always bitching and
moaning
1:52:10
about they weren't fighting
enough so
1:52:15
everybody pass this around his
fact
1:52:18
Donald Trump into gorilla
Channel that's
1:52:21
a good one yep petaa me of the
stupidity
1:52:24
of the left and this the basic
audience
1:52:29
out there there are suckers for
this
1:52:31
sort of thing and that was
probably
1:52:33
promulgated by everybody there
was a lot
1:52:35
of TV stories on it and it was
all over
1:52:38
the network and there the
Internet yeah
1:52:41
but the gorilla Channel yeah
nice lassic
1:52:44
do we have any clips about that
I'm sure
1:52:45
we probably go back probably
2017 mmm I
1:52:50
don't see anything offhand I
should
1:52:53
probably put together a little
1:52:53
compilation of that of the of
the
1:52:56
gorilla Channel that was
hilarious that
1:52:58
was the the Russian pranksters
as
1:53:04
they're known I just liked I
prefer to
1:53:06
call him the podcasters vuelven
and
1:53:08
Lexus have they struck again now
1:53:11
previously they had gotten
through to
1:53:14
congressman Adam shifts office
claiming
1:53:17
that they had compromised and
1:53:22
compromising pictures of Trump

1:53:26

1:53:28

Waters
1:57:10
and I am so pleased to be on

1:57:14
telephone call with Greta on
this
1:57:28
telephone call with Greta
fatberg I am
1:57:33
just so proud of her and her
father
1:57:36
savant a dead bird and the work
that
1:57:39
they are doing as you know
Greta is an
1:57:45
environmental activist and she
took part
1:57:48
in the United Nations climate
summit in
1:57:52
New York recently and she has
been
1:57:55
traveling and she has been the
greatest
1:57:58
advocate for what is happening
with our
1:58:02
climate and the environment and
I'm very
1:58:05
pleased that she's with you in
North
1:58:08
Carolina where you
1:58:10
to saying on protecting the very
1:58:13
important island of tula
challenge I'm
1:58:21
so happy she's supporting the
very
1:58:23
important the critically
important
1:58:26
island of chimichanga you Greta
thud
1:58:29
berg and your dad Devante thud
berg come
1:58:33
on well I believe these these
two
1:58:37
comrades deserve a medal for
this work
1:58:39
this is really very good well
let's give
1:58:43
them a taste clip of the day
yeah you
1:58:45
know I wonder what that we
should do a
1:58:48
Russian version so we can don't
know how
1:58:51
good they were
1:58:52
[Music]
1:58:54
comrade now both of them sound
like a
1:58:57
couple of Russians more
ludicrous it's
1:59:04
it's a 15-minute call there's
there's
1:59:06
more in it but I thought that
was the
1:59:08
funniest one especially the
thud Berg
1:59:10
what a moron that should be on
the
1:59:14
normal news don't you think yes
it
1:59:17
should be but no we can't
impeach a
1:59:19
member of Congress so stupid to
fall for
1:59:23
this I mean if she was keeping
up with
1:59:25
anything she knows that grete
boogie
1:59:27
back to home base and she's not
in North
1:59:30
Carolina she didn't go to North
Carolina
1:59:32
after the event in New York the
whole
1:59:36
thing is just ludicrous and it
should be
1:59:38
regular news that that's
regular news
1:59:41
story I agree
1:59:42
no no cuz the news media is so
fraught
1:59:45
with Democrat left-wingers just
to be
1:59:48
honest about it they can't bring
1:59:50
themselves to do these stories
yeah oh
1:59:52
my god it makes it look so
stupid
1:59:55
I refuse to run that story Wow
hey we
2:00:01
did have kind of a crappy story
here in
2:00:04
Austin on Friday was a Friday or
2:00:10
Saturday morning we had a
stabbing one
2:00:15
person died
2:00:18
South Congress I mean really
like ten
2:00:20
minutes from my house
2:00:23
let me see if there's a so
here's what
2:00:27
happens it's at a a burrito
joint and
2:00:30
this is right on Riverside and
South
2:00:33
Congress this is really where
I've lived
2:00:35
for a lot of the years in
Austin this
2:00:37
general area and so first there
was an
2:00:40
altercation in a coffee shop
then this
2:00:44
27 year old suspect he was
detained by
2:00:49
people because it was harassing
a woman
2:00:50
so there were civilians I think
and they
2:00:53
detained him the guy broke
loose the
2:00:55
cops arrived the cops run after
him he
2:00:57
you know the cops can't catch
him he
2:01:00
runs into the burrito joint
stabs two
2:01:02
people wounding one one cook
there
2:01:06
fatally then he runs up onto
the roof
2:01:09
and Swan dives while the cops
are trying
2:01:13
to you know are ordering him to
come
2:01:15
down
2:01:16
he Swan dives off the roof onto
his head
2:01:20
and people could hear his neck
bones
2:01:24
cracking he's in critical
condition and
2:01:27
of course in the hospital but
in custody
2:01:30
and you know what people in
Austin think
2:01:33
right away is who is this guy
everyone
2:01:36
thinks he's homeless or
transient that
2:01:40
sparked an immediate Rauh
between the
2:01:44
governor of Texas Abbott and
the mayor
2:01:47
of Austin mayor Adler an Abbott
tweeted
2:01:53
there we go 21st century
diplomacy he
2:01:56
tweeted and said holy crap I'll
bet you
2:01:59
this guy was homeless once
again that
2:02:01
the mayor of Austin is not
protecting
2:02:04
his the people who put him in
office and
2:02:07
then our mayor turns around and
tweets
2:02:11
back how dare you how very dare
you
2:02:15
assumed it was a homeless
person or as
2:02:19
he would say how dare you
assume it was
2:02:22
a person experiencing
homelessness
2:02:25
and of course it turns out that
that's
2:02:27
exactly what it was and I
Austin police
2:02:30
say the man accused of carrying
out a
2:02:32
deadly stabbing attack Friday is
2:02:34
homeless that information being
shared
2:02:36
as the governor continues his
attack on
2:02:39
Austin's policies toward people
living
2:02:41
on the streets he most recently
tweeted
2:02:44
today quote the city's top job
is Public
2:02:47
Safety and they are failing
2:02:49
kxan's Caitlin Carr mood taught
to
2:02:51
Austin's mayor who's pushing
back before
2:02:54
realize that there's not a link
between
2:02:57
homelessness and criminality
that's like
2:03:00
suggesting that all all
immigrants are
2:03:03
rapists
2:03:04
just not true and it is this is
mayor
2:03:08
Adler's response to Governor
Abbott's
2:03:10
tweets we talked to him while
he's in a
2:03:12
New York Hospital waiting for
his
2:03:13
daughter to give birth he felt
it
2:03:16
necessary to respond to the
governor's
2:03:17
attacks on Austin policies
towards
2:03:20
homeless people this comes
after a 27
2:03:23
year old man attacked three
people they
2:03:25
South Congress shopping center
killing
2:03:27
one shortly after Governor
Abbott
2:03:29
suggested that the suspect
would likely
2:03:31
be a homeless person
2:03:33
mayor Adler called that
suggestion
2:03:36
irresponsible and today APD
confirmed
2:03:38
the suspected killer is
homeless today
2:03:41
governor Abbott had a series of
tweets
2:03:43
suggesting that the city must
ensure its
2:03:46
homeless policies doesn't
endanger
2:03:48
innocent people the mayor
Adler's
2:03:50
response most of the crimes
you're not
2:03:54
community 5 people experiencing
2:03:55
homelessness so to demonize
people that
2:03:58
way and they guess scared of
people does
2:04:01
a real disservice to the
community
2:04:03
mayor Adler says instead of a
Twitter
2:04:05
feud he'd like to speak to the
governor
2:04:07
face-to-face
2:04:08
I want the state to be a
partner how to
2:04:11
be working with us well I'll
tell you
2:04:14
not a lot of not a lot of
credibility
2:04:16
left for the mayor here in
Austin yeah
2:04:18
vote him for him i I really
like the way
2:04:22
he sticks to the memes
homelessness you
2:04:26
can't just cut it down to
homeless no no
2:04:29
you can't you have to sakes and
you have
2:04:30
to see neighbors experiencing
2:04:32
homelessness but the problem is
just
2:04:35
like California cities here now
as well
2:04:38
the
2:04:39
you know there's no prosecution
for
2:04:41
small crime there's no
prosecution for
2:04:44
small assault there was a woman
and it
2:04:46
could have been the same guy
for all I
2:04:48
know a couple weeks ago was
assaulted on
2:04:50
this thing of the South first
or South
2:04:52
Congress bridge and you know
it's become
2:04:56
violent because these are not
just you
2:04:59
right he's right homelessness
or people
2:05:01
experiencing homelessness
that's not
2:05:04
necessarily the issue but
Austin has
2:05:07
become a mecca for transients
to come
2:05:09
through because this everything
is free
2:05:11
here free money camp where you
want do
2:05:13
what you want just because you
can't
2:05:14
camp downtown every median of
grass now
2:05:17
outside of the downtown area is
filled
2:05:20
with tents barbecues people
park in
2:05:23
there their cars on hot
nemedian our
2:05:28
mailbox was broken into
yesterday you
2:05:30
know as you know we don't have
mailboxes
2:05:33
we have one up at the top of
the the top
2:05:36
of the street but broken open
all the
2:05:38
mail stolen packages ripped
open which
2:05:43
is a federal crime I might add
so that's
2:05:45
thank you thank you yes that's
not just
2:05:48
some some petty crime where's
the ring
2:05:51
doorbell now where's all that
but I you
2:05:54
know you don't see the cops
running
2:05:56
around now saying oh do you
have any
2:05:57
ring doorbell video and
doorbell any
2:05:59
video and no they don't even
show up for
2:06:02
it well we have a still do
California
2:06:06
versus Boston we have a new
issue and
2:06:08
the left media left-leaning
media leases
2:06:11
on this one and it's not quite
the same
2:06:13
as what you just described but
it's it's
2:06:16
an issue cuz it's gonna cause
somebody
2:06:18
it could be anybody a lot of
money
2:06:23
another money grab and here's a
report
2:06:26
from one of the stations I
think in
2:06:27
Southern California on the new
2:06:29
California water law all right
so many
2:06:32
laws get considered each and
every year
2:06:34
they're discussed and in their
past all
2:06:36
right this one I'm not sure how
I feel
2:06:37
about this you're not gonna be
allowed
2:06:39
to shower and do a load of
laundry in
2:06:41
the same day III had the same
misgivings
2:06:44
doing a load of laundry it
takes about
2:06:46
40 to 50 gallons of water
taking a
2:06:49
shower for about eight minutes
takes
2:06:51
about
2:06:51
tene gallons of water well
there's a
2:06:53
limitation on your daily use of
water of
2:06:55
fifty five gallons per day so
that means
2:06:58
if you are taking a shower and
doing a
2:07:00
load of laundry you can't do
both
2:07:01
without being a violation of
the law
2:07:03
there are some exceptions about
this you
2:07:06
can't do both without being in
violation
2:07:07
of the law there are some
exceptions
2:07:10
about this there are some
caveats for
2:07:12
instance if you have a multi
person
2:07:14
household if you have four
people in
2:07:16
your household or three people
in a
2:07:17
household that 55 gallon limit
per day
2:07:20
applies in for each person so
it you
2:07:23
could do a load of laundry if
you have a
2:07:26
multi person household and okay
well you
2:07:35
you can actually see your your
water
2:07:37
uses on a daily rate with your
water
2:07:39
meter now there are actually
fines
2:07:41
available for this as well your
your
2:07:42
first your violation is $1,000
for each
2:07:46
day that you're in violation
it's the
2:07:51
state legislature the governor
signed
2:07:53
into effect effect January 1st
now
2:07:55
there's also another caveat if
we're in
2:07:57
drought conditions and the
governor
2:07:58
declares an emergency that fine
can go
2:08:00
up to $10,000 a day so be
careful you
2:08:02
could change their word to
serenity to
2:08:05
anger now so all of a sudden I
can smoke
2:08:12
marijuana as much as I want but
I can't
2:08:14
take a shower yeah I saw this
and I
2:08:21
clipped it as well that's KTLA
the law
2:08:23
very famous Los Angeles station
2:08:25
it's what was most fascinating
to me is
2:08:28
the female anchor says oh who
made this
2:08:32
law hello news lady you're
supposed to
2:08:37
be on top of this this was a
state
2:08:39
legislature and it was signed
into law
2:08:41
and they can completely track
this right
2:08:44
down to your micro gallon you
know
2:08:46
exactly how much you how many
people
2:08:48
live in there two people that's
110 cal
2:08:50
at gallons a day don't go over
it oh
2:08:52
yeah fines are coming yeah
2:08:57
well luckily you don't bathe
that much
2:09:04
[Music]
2:09:04
[Applause]
2:09:08
[Music]
2:09:15
you know you don't need to
Britt bathe
2:09:18
if you use dr. Bronner's
doesn't it
2:09:21
require some water no this
stuff doesn't
2:09:25
get some unbelievable fabulous
I'd know
2:09:27
I just wipe it on and wipe it
off use a
2:09:31
squeegee yeah let's start off
with
2:09:34
spanking a few people for sure
12:05 mmm
2:09:37
starting with Mike Nick Kalai
at Chuck
2:09:41
Nicholai Nicholai Chuck nickel
nickel
2:09:44
I'd say Nikolaj physic uh he
says he's
2:09:47
by the way one of my one of the
guys
2:09:50
that tracks the newsletter and
he's I
2:09:53
got a lot of people that didn't
get the
2:09:54
news I got a second mail email
from you
2:09:57
so we had another problem with
the with
2:09:58
the email reaching and I'll
give you a
2:10:02
little background on this I'm
trying to
2:10:04
figure out how many emails just
aren't
2:10:05
getting to the place at all
which i
2:10:08
think is a problem with
MailChimp mm-hmm
2:10:10
and so I've been discussing
this over
2:10:13
various second secondary
mailings and
2:10:15
people are the everyone writes
in oh I
2:10:17
got it I don't care if you got
it so I
2:10:20
this time I came up with the
bright idea
2:10:22
which was email me if you
didn't get it
2:10:25
why no I always say that the
problem was
2:10:29
everyone emailed me anyway
where they
2:10:31
got it or not but this time I
added the
2:10:33
stupid easy thing I should have
always
2:10:36
done which was used the subject
line
2:10:38
yeah I didn't get the email
yeah so that
2:10:42
way I can sort out the people
just want
2:10:44
to chat and people who actually
didn't
2:10:46
get the email and made it a lot
easier
2:10:47
net and I can see it was like
twenty or
2:10:49
thirty people which means it's
just this
2:10:51
tip of the iceberg is not
everybody's
2:10:52
even gonna bother right but so
they were
2:10:56
not getting the mail out or
something
2:10:58
there's something amiss the way
I see
2:11:00
cuz if you're not getting it at
all even
2:11:02
in your spam box yeah there's
something
2:11:05
wrong well you know what
because I've
2:11:07
been working with a lot of
email in my
2:11:09
with my
2:11:10
workflows on Linux I've noticed
that in
2:11:14
particularly Google Gmail is
being very
2:11:18
very stringent with the Demark
2:11:22
you familiar with Demark no I'm
not DM
2:11:25
RAC yeah this is a it's like a
policy
2:11:31
what does Demark stand for
domain
2:11:33
message authentication reporting
2:11:38
that's Demark and their be
they've
2:11:41
tightened that up I only just
started
2:11:43
looking into it because I know
that I
2:11:45
don't have my D marks that are
properly
2:11:46
on curry calm
2:11:47
so if MailChimp doesn't have
that set up
2:11:50
properly if there's one small
and not
2:11:52
anomaly immediate non-delivery
that I
2:11:55
don't even know if it sends a
bounce
2:11:57
message
2:11:59
so there's once again it's
mainly Google
2:12:02
but I'm sure the others are
falling suit
2:12:06
whatever Google does everyone
does yeah
2:12:08
yes right
2:12:11
anyway he is actually sir
2:12:16
a raw SK
2:12:19
of the Paris of the prairies
from
2:12:21
Saskatoon obviously yes and you
I just
2:12:26
give him a D douching okay

2:12:51
Steven son da Vall 5333 michael
gates
2:12:57
fifty to eighty oh it's another
news
2:13:00
item Michael gates so Bill
Gates big
2:13:04
makes a big stink yeah I think
we should
2:13:06
have you know Washington State
is one of
2:13:09
the few states like Texas
Florida Nevada
2:13:12
there's a few that have no
personal
2:13:14
income tax yes you have other
work
2:13:17
mechanisms Washington State
they use
2:13:19
speed traps and they come here
we use a
2:13:22
property tax well they use
property tax
2:13:25
too but it seems to be better
running
2:13:30
states with when you start
getting the
2:13:31
state income tax they states
get corrupt
2:13:34
and California is the worst
example
2:13:36
mm-hmm but so Bill Gates comes
out the
2:13:38
big statement Washington State
now this
2:13:42
is after this guy's already
shut them
2:13:44
shut the lid on the submarine
he's in uh
2:13:47
watch this state should have
because he
2:13:50
has no personal income anymore
at all
2:13:51
he's got zero he did all his
money is
2:13:53
just money in the bank that he
spends
2:13:56
the state of Washington should
have a
2:13:58
income tax this is this is
ridiculous of
2:14:03
a guy like just to say that
just butt
2:14:05
out it got everybody all up in
arms so
2:14:09
our producer Michael Gates
should call
2:14:11
his family member and tell them
to shut
2:14:13
up is that the connection
that's the
2:14:15
reason
2:14:18
Eric local and Mauro's Joycelyn

meet-up
2:23:52
yeah if everyone's thinking
that way
2:23:54
it's gonna be a great meet up I
think
2:23:55
Horowitz might show up and by
the way
2:23:58
because he was very concerned
about this
2:24:00
if Horowitz shows up everybody
pretend
2:24:03
you don't know who he is
2:24:06
what do you do a podcast with
who with
2:24:08
do you don't show with John -
never
2:24:10
heard it - make sure you do
that because
2:24:12
it's very concerned if people
wouldn't
2:24:14
know who he was you being the
kind
2:24:19
gentleman you already decided
to set him
2:24:21
up exactly what else are
friends for
2:24:25
so that is a current overview I
did want
2:24:28

religion
2:27:17
background age you name it
we're a crazy
2:27:21
cult go find your meetup
2:27:27
have a stinkbug update
2:27:31
talked about the stinkbug yes
and now
2:27:34
nobody knew about anything
going on but
2:27:35
apparently these stink bugs
have invaded
2:27:37
a good part of Washington State
this is
2:27:40
the marmorated stink bug I
believe is
2:27:43
the force exactly I got a lot
of emails
2:27:46
from people about your story
apparently
2:27:49
yes they're everywhere brown
marmorated
2:27:51
stink bug is something Darrell
fiefdom
2:27:53
of Varitek's pest control has
plenty of
2:27:56
experience with their asius :
Vader and
2:27:59
if they come in right about now
but now
2:28:01
and again and particularly now
2:28:04
homeowners call in with little
clue
2:28:06
about this critter wondering
what it is
2:28:09
where it came from and whether
it's
2:28:11
harmful I do all the multi care
there's
2:28:13
like six hospitals and forty
you know
2:28:15
outpatient centers originally
from Asia
2:28:18
the stink bug first crossed our
border
2:28:19
in 2010 since 2012 it has
spread quickly
2:28:23
from Clark County to 20 others
working
2:28:25
its way across Washington wait
out the
2:28:28
winter and cracks and crannies
of heated
2:28:30
homes and then they get busy I
mean they
2:28:33
propagate over the past month
the emails
2:28:36
and phone calls have flooded
into WSU
2:28:39
researchers more than 300 so
far most of
2:28:43
those sightings and King Pierce
and
2:28:44
Thurston counties so what do
you do
2:28:46
what's there inside don'ts
question
2:28:49
because they will stink either
vacuum
2:28:52
them up throw away the bag when
you're
2:28:54
through there throw away the
bag that
2:28:56
you will win you're through
vacuuming
2:28:58
because your vacuum will reek
for weeks
2:29:01
the real threat is outside
where they're
2:29:04
ready to gorge on trees and
shrubs and
2:29:06
they don't discriminate they
decimate
2:29:09
which is why agriculture
experts hope
2:29:12
people help them keep track in
Seattle
2:29:14
Copeland King 5 news so a
question just
2:29:19
looking at these pictures how
big is a
2:29:20
marble we don't have them in
Texas I
2:29:22
don't think how big is one of
these
2:29:23
defects how big are they
2:29:27
they're the size of a thumbtack
okay so
2:29:29
relatively small hmm
2:29:33
maybe that's what I could tell
some tech
2:29:36
now do you remember cuz this is
I think
2:29:41
we maybe went to two cycles of
these bug
2:29:43
stories bug again ins it was
probably
2:29:46
two years ago maybe three
bedbugs yeah
2:29:49
it was a re after story about
bedbugs
2:29:51
and hotels and met bugs and bed
bugs and
2:29:54
bed bugs and that what did what
happened
2:29:56
to all the bed bugs died I came
that
2:29:58
story just dropped off to it
just
2:29:59
nothing it wasn't scary enough
the
2:30:02
apparently these stink bugs are
now the
2:30:04
story so hmm it's always some
bug now
2:30:07
can you eat them are they tasty
2:30:09
of course not if they stink and
they
2:30:12
will make a good vacuum cleaner
reek
2:30:14
apparently it's a nauseating
smell
2:30:16
because I that's why it's
called a stink
2:30:19
yeah I've definitely seen this
type of
2:30:21
bug it looks familiar but I
don't think
2:30:23
I've ever seen one here in
Texas you're
2:30:25
right yet but and I'd like to
do I'd
2:30:27
like to know a little bit more
what is
2:30:29
this - what is maybe we should
send you
2:30:31
a few made a couple for
yourself you
2:30:35
won't do that that's not a good
idea at
2:30:37
all
2:30:39
updates Epstein updates the
apparently
2:30:46
FBI is now officially looking
to to talk
2:30:49
to some people like wow they
figured
2:30:52
maybe you'd be good idea to go
have a
2:30:54
chat with Gil a Maxwell and see
if she
2:30:57
had any involvement in any of
this stuff
2:30:59
financing trial on sex
trafficking
2:31:04
charges but the case isn't
closed
2:31:06
Reuters has learned the FBI is
2:31:08
investigating people who may
have been
2:31:09
accomplices to Epstein's illegal
2:31:12
behavior to law enforcement
sources told
2:31:15
Reuters the principle focus is
British
2:31:17
socialite Guylaine Maxwell seen
here in
2:31:20
2013 Maxwell has not been
accused of
2:31:23
criminal wrongdoing her lawyers
did not
2:31:25
respond to a request for
comment one of
2:31:27
Epstein's accusers virginia
goof ray
2:31:29
said in a civil lawsuit that
Maxwell
2:31:32
recruited her into Epstein's a
circle
2:31:34
and so she introduced you to
Jeffrey
2:31:36
have stated yeah so you were
hired to be
2:31:38
a masseuse for him initially
yeah
2:31:40
Maxwell has called goof Ray's
2:31:41
allegations lies who Freight
claims
2:31:44
Epstein forced her to have sex
with
2:31:45
friends including Britain's
Prince
2:31:48
Andrew Andrew 59 also
categorically
2:31:51
denies the accusations and has
said he
2:31:53
has no recollection of meeting
GU Frey
2:31:55
the law enforcement sources
said the
2:31:57
FBI's focuses on people who
facilitated
2:31:59
Epstein and that Andrew does
not fit
2:32:02
that category
2:32:04
ah somehow I think they're just
never
2:32:07
really gonna talk to Gillian
Maxwell or
2:32:09
as they say well they say
socialite
2:32:12
British socialite now she's
protected
2:32:15
she's protected she's protected
she's a
2:32:18
spook she's protected by
multiple
2:32:20
intelligence agencies and will
never
2:32:22
know anything however tonight
2:32:26
60 minutes is promising
something new
2:32:29
Sharon Alfonzo has investigated
2:32:31
Epstein's death for five months
and
2:32:33
reveals what happened in the
moments
2:32:35
after his body was found what
did the
2:32:38
prison guards do with Geoffrey
Epstein's
2:32:40
body so immediately after they
2:32:43
discovered him they took him to
the
2:32:44
hospital
2:32:45
they were trying to do CPR on
him about
2:32:48
an hour after he got to the
hospital
2:32:50
they declared him officially
dead about
2:32:52
7:30 and then he was seeing the
morgue
2:32:54
where they did the autopsy the
next day
2:32:56
what do we know about what was
found in
2:32:58
Geoffrey Epstein's jail cell so
it's
2:33:00
interesting you would think
that it
2:33:02
would be sparse right this is a
federal
2:33:04
prison high-security what we
have
2:33:07
learned through our reporting
is that
2:33:09
there was multiple sheets in
there lots
2:33:12
of bedding an electrical cord
2:33:14
prescription medicine
2:33:16
there was actually notes and a
paper he
2:33:19
had written a note so in the
piece you
2:33:21
were heard saying that a guard
was
2:33:23
saying breathe Jeffrey breathe
so this
2:33:26
was widely known what was
happening in
2:33:28
the prison or - we aren't sure
well we
2:33:30
know the way that the prison
was set up
2:33:32
he was in a secure area where
there were
2:33:34
about eight cells and so we
have heard
2:33:37
and our sources tell us that
the guards
2:33:40
could be overheard saying
breathe
2:33:41
epstein breathe and what's kind
of eerie
2:33:43
is that after that the
prisoners that
2:33:46
were in that secure area all
started
2:33:48
chanting breathe epstein
breathe so the
2:33:50
prison they were the prisoners
other
2:33:51
prisoners were aware of what
was going
2:33:52
on they knew something was
going on it's
2:33:54
you know the doors are blocked
they
2:33:56
probably couldn't see that much
but
2:33:58
certainly they heard the
commotion
2:33:59
whether it was their video
surveillance
2:34:01
in there in that area it's a
great
2:34:02
question we know there's video
2:34:04
surveillance facing the guard
steps
2:34:06
which is outside of the area
where he
2:34:08
was we are told that the video
facing
2:34:11
the cells the video that might
have seen
2:34:13
his cell door was corrupted
2:34:16
was interrupted meaning we
don't know
2:34:18
okay good question no problem
finding
2:34:22
ring doorbell video of anything
in the
2:34:24
fucking universe but oh this
one's
2:34:26
corrupted in the jail and he had
2:34:30
electrical cords and she had
everything
2:34:33
what this is an abomination it
truly is
2:34:37
an abomination and it's
insulting to
2:34:40
people's intelligence yeah but
then
2:34:42
again what's new what's new
with this
2:34:45
story I didn't know I didn't
know what
2:34:46
they had all this he had all
that stuff
2:34:48
in his cell well even so but
that's kind
2:34:52
of pertinent to how someone
kills
2:34:56
themself it's all I ever said
they saw
2:34:58
the cord wrapped around his
neck I
2:35:00
always imagined something there
choking
2:35:02
him saying breathe breathe that
actually
2:35:06
think is the best theory ever
the guy's
2:35:08
standing there saying breathe
Epstein
2:35:10
while he's choking him that I
think is
2:35:11
is something to look at imagine
it yeah
2:35:16
yeah now don't I don't expect
much not
2:35:19
expecting I'm not even gonna
watch it i
2:35:21
watch a football game instead
well you
2:35:23
do that I'll watch I have an
old clip
2:35:25
that I wanted to get out of the
way is
2:35:28
this gonna be our last clip
yeah okay
2:35:31
wasn't we can go back to 2016 I
I never
2:35:34
heard this clip we never played
it on
2:35:35
the show that I know of
2:35:38
this is before Trump was even
elected he
2:35:41
had just been nominated
president and
2:35:44
there was a discussion with
Harry Reid
2:35:47
he said he hasn't been elected
he'd been
2:35:50
nominated president with wood
Oh what
2:35:52
did you just say he's not been
elected
2:35:54
yet this is before the election
oh he
2:35:56
has the nomination of there's
the
2:35:58
nominee for the Republicans got
it so he
2:36:01
just she's just a new nominee
so he's
2:36:04
not any big thing but there he
is and
2:36:06
this is the kind of thing that
was going
2:36:08
on during that era where Trump
just got
2:36:11
nominated here's what the
Democrats were
2:36:13
doing it's obvious that he
doesn't know
2:36:15
what he's talking about
2:36:16
it's obvious he can't control
his mind
2:36:18
or his tongue and what I
suggested if
2:36:22
now because he's the nominee
for the
2:36:23
party and he gets he's entitled
to
2:36:26
briefings from the CIA for
example I
2:36:28
told I said publicly giving fake
2:36:31
briefings pretend your briefing
don't
2:36:33
tell him anything that you
don't want to
2:36:34
get out and that's how I feel
about it I
2:36:37
think that the man is a loose
cannon I
2:36:39
think he's done so much to hurt
our
2:36:41
country with our international
relations
2:36:45
already what is the Republican
nominee
2:36:46
isn't he entitled to get those
briefings
2:36:49
give him fake briefings what
does that
2:36:51
even mean
2:36:51
it means they'll tell him stuff
you
2:36:53
won't know the difference you're
2:36:54
basically telling the
intelligence
2:36:55
community to lie to him like
I'm not
2:36:59
gonna lie to you but I have to
tell you
2:37:01
everything is that one of ours
no I
2:37:08
found it on the interwebs
2:37:10
well it kind of was surprised
when I
2:37:13
heard I had no idea this was
gone that
2:37:15
far back he's already ruined the
2:37:16
relations with the world he
just got
2:37:18
nominated and this is what this
is where
2:37:21
they were headed with and this
is where
2:37:22
it began I think this predates
even you
2:37:25
know the stuff that was just
prior to
2:37:26
the election well just before
the new
2:37:28
year Al Green representative Al
Green of
2:37:32
Texas who has put his foot in
his mouth
2:37:36
multiple times when it comes to
2:37:37
impeachment he is of course the
the man
2:37:40
who said well if we don't
impeach him
2:37:42
he'll he'll win he'll be
reelected which
2:37:46
is I think kind of the money
quote for
2:37:48
2019
2:37:51
just before the New Year's he's
on with
2:37:53
the Chris Hayes on MSNBC
talking about
2:37:56
the genesis of impeachment and
when when
2:38:00
when the decision was really
made that
2:38:02
you know this guy needs to be
impeached
2:38:04
and leveled against Democrats
during
2:38:06
this entire affair particularly
since
2:38:09
September when the formal
impeachment
2:38:10
inquiry started in you you play
a
2:38:12
starring role in those charges
I mean
2:38:14
the argument goes like this of
House
2:38:16
Republicans and Trump and his
allies the
2:38:18
president as allies is
basically the
2:38:20
Democrats want to do impeach
Donald
2:38:21
Trump from day one they cast
about
2:38:23
looking for a set of facts that
they
2:38:25
could plausibly use to do it
and all of
2:38:27
it was pretextual and
reverse-engineered
2:38:29
to get to this point exhibit one
2:38:30
congressman Al Green who's been
calling
2:38:32
for the man's impeachment for
two years
2:38:35
now what's your response to
that charge
2:38:37
well the genesis of impeachment
to be
2:38:40
very candid with you was when
the
2:38:44
president was running for
office and he
2:38:46
had members of his own party to
talk
2:38:48
about his unfitness to hold
office so
2:38:51
when he was running before he
was even
2:38:54
the nominee we knew we had to
impeach
2:38:56
him
2:38:59
yeah I pretty much says it all
in this
2:39:01
Harry Reid thing I mean this
guys were
2:39:03
these Democrats were not gonna
let this
2:39:05
guy Wow ever it's pretty
astonishing
2:39:11
actually it's a great time to
be alive
2:39:13
an even better time to be a
podcaster
2:39:17
would you agree I would say
there's
2:39:20
nothing else that you could do
if you
2:39:22
want to get information out you
have to
2:39:23
be a podcaster because the
media is not
2:39:25
gonna or the mainstream is not
gonna
2:39:26
pick up on it
2:39:27
no they won't they won't run
with it
2:39:29
because that's against some
narrative
2:39:31
that unspoken narrative that I
guess
2:39:34
everybody internalizes and then
we end
2:39:36
up with what you get which is
crap so if
2:39:39
you're looking for non crap but

2:41:02
is once again attacking Iraq
sort of as
2:41:04
like a big boulder sitting
little the
2:41:05
road in yes bill we're hearing
us a
2:41:08
series we're hearing a series
of very
2:41:10
loud
2:41:12
the aftermath shows an attack
that was
2:41:14
deliberate and sustained with
around a
2:41:17
half-dozen explosions the
Americans
2:41:19
firing with teal and missiles
awesome
2:41:21
you want to declare war we took
action
2:41:25
last night to stop a war
present another
2:41:29
Gulf War we did not cause her
acting
2:41:32
today it is less likely that we
will
2:41:34
face these dangers in this
movie he was
2:41:36
plotting attacks against
Americans but
2:41:39
now we increase of America's
ability to
2:41:42
prevent future acts of violence
and
2:41:44
aggression last night at my
direction
2:41:46
the United States military
executed a
2:41:49
flawless strike that terminated
the
2:41:52
terrorists ringleader earlier
today I
2:41:54
ordered America's armed forces
destroyed
2:41:56
military and security targets
and ladies
2:41:59
and gentlemen I know I sound
like a
2:42:01
broken record to many of you of
the last
2:42:02
six years speaking so much
about Iraq if
2:42:04
you're a Sunday morning junkie
you've
2:42:06
had to hear me almost every
Sunday
2:42:08
morning to demonstrate once
again that
2:42:10
reckless acts have consequences
and I am
2:42:13
ready and prepared to take
whatever
2:42:16
action is necessary to do this
tell me
2:42:23
how this ends Charlie let me
close by
2:42:25
addressing one other issue that
the
2:42:26
serious debate currently before
the
2:42:28
House of Representatives would
distract
2:42:30
Americans are we Canaris off to
facing
2:42:33
down other Democrats are
questioning the
2:42:35
timing of this strike which
comes as the
2:42:37
president faces a looming
impeachment
2:42:40
trial while the Congress was
voting to
2:42:46
impeach the president the US
military
2:42:48
was bombing Baghdad this could
escalate
2:42:50
they could lead to a cycle of
violence
2:42:52
it just got more dangerous
2:42:55
you know I don't know about
that are you
2:42:58
gonna be with me Charlie huh
here
2:43:00
