23rd 2020
this is your award-winning
Gitmo nation
media assassination episode
1219 this is
no agenda
slummin on the a and
broadcasting live
from fort lauderdale jewel of
the
Sunshine State in the morning
everybody
I'm Adam curry and from
Northern Silicon
Valley where I'm not smelling
cheap
hotel plastic container coffee
I'm Jesse
Dvorak which is why you should
appreciate Who I am and what I
do for
this dying show not dying well
it is
today it gets worse the only
coffee that
was left was that just in its
pods decaf
but that makes it just that
much more
insulting oh you've made
yourself oh
wait a minute
so this we're talking about the
into
your hotel or a motel room it's
a room
where you're doing the show
it's a hotel
okay a quote-unquote hotel yes
they have
one of those cheap plastic
coffee
machines
yeah security have they this
little
bucket no this is a newer
version this
is a Keurig is that actual
Keurig yeah
well it's not one so you can't
you can't
actually clean a Keurig so
broaches get
in there next thing another
thing is so
I wonder what that spice was
that's nice
well this is actually a hotel
just to be
honest here this is a haute or
come let
me descriptive this is a hotel
Keurig
where you and it's very clear
instructions press the button
that flips
open you put in the pod you
close it
then another trapdoor opens and
you're
supposed to fill up your cup
with water
pour that into the trapdoor
close the
trap door place the cup hit the
brew
button
the problem is they give you
two regular
coffee
two teas and to decaf and of
course
after all the prepping this
morning I
thought I had for coffee but
this is one
of the to decaf so I'm Sheva
tea well I
had already committed to it you
stop
right there no hurry tea I mean
come on
trying this is part of why I
didn't have
the tea I mean you seriously
want me to
put a tea pod into a coffee
machine
that's been just leaking coffee
for the
four months on end no I don't
think so
and also you're drinking decaf
for
today's show yes now I know
what you
mean yeah exactly
there goes the Zephyr by the
way how are
we doing on car count for the
Zephyr
I've six seven eight they're
normal nine
so it's nine okay so economy is
stable
it's good to know yeah stable
economy so
we here in lovely Fort
Lauderdale for we
originally we were here for a
wedding
one of Tina's best friends that
you wait
for their meat out what we
created the
meat up before a whole day
before the
wedding because we were coming
here it
made so much sense so it became
about
the meat up but of course it
was real
and you know you know a Susan
you met
Susan at the at our wedding
yeah yeah
she married no her daughter was
getting
married oh yeah but it's
interesting
because this hotel it is actual
hotel it
was sold so it's in one of those
transition periods where
there's half of
the hotel was under
construction and
then you know this is closer
they're
pounding nails all the time the
older
side here yes
the hotel is transitioning so I
hope
you'll respect its choices and
just
leave it at that
but it was a beautiful wedding
was
fantastic do the ceremony
outside
because of course you know you
got to be
in Florida you got to have a
wedding
when it rains and it's near
windy and
that was yesterday and today
it's
beautiful of course which is
always
isn't that already three always
the way
always the way it goes
but now yes you are mentioning
that this
hotel is being bought and sold
by some
new company yes you notice that
every
hotel the old place used to go
to all
the time they're owned by me
then
they're owned by Hilton and
they're
owned by shares in the mirror
button and
Renaissance yeah just keep
changing
ownership what is the deal with
that you
said you have some insight into
this no
you're know I thought you had
insight
into it I have no idea I had
insight
into the phenomenon I I mean I
I don't
even know about the inside I
know about
the phenomena but I figure
there's some
tax scam involved and I've
never heard a
good explanation for it I have
no idea
what's going on and maybe
someone else
will know but this and this is
a group
it wasn't Marriott it's being
sold to
some other group which had
never heard
of before so I don't know it's
uh it's
it's perfectly functional it's
it's
great it's Florida they've got
nothing
to complain about here in fact
people in
Florida should not complain
about much
it's pretty generally don't
accept it
weirdness in Florida cuz
there's a lot
of weirdos down there there's a
lot of
strange news stories
well Florida Nexis screw
baldness it's
true so after it so a Friday
morning the
keeper and I flew flew down to
Fort
Lauderdale pretty uneventful
checked in
and then yeah we had a couple
hours and
then we went off to you gave
pre-check
no of course not but I did learn
something you paid for
pre-check no no
it doesn't matter it doesn't
matter if
you pay for it they only give
it to you
if they feel like it and
because we're
flying back on American because
JetBlue
doesn't you know doesn't have
the times
or that or even direct flights
that we
wanted when you do a one-way
flight it
doesn't matter who you are
you're not
getting pre checked they
they'll never
do that on a one-way ticket
ever but I
did learn and this was
interesting
because I it wasn't all that
busy nough
had a good chat with the
friendly TSA
agent or TSO the TSA TSA officer
and he said well you know
because I said
well I'll take the mic out so
what's in
here so that's so much studio
gear and
he says can I take Italy just
before we
went through the x-ray she's
gonna take
a look yeah sure this is a lot
of wires
it will do have any gear in
there so
well really I've got the audio
interfaces well if you take
that out and
the microphone and the mixer
but but
leave all the wires in then they
probably won't have to open it
up on the
other end and that turned out
to be true
so I'm gonna try that on the
way back
because there's nothing worse
than
having someone else
open up your studio bag and
because the
wires and it's mainly wires
that are
rolled up or then they pull
these wires
and that takes me and you know
a good
half an hour to figure out
where what
goes back into what so that
maybe yeah
maybe so those three pieces of
gear out
yeah and then and then I don't
see a
bunch of wires it look like it
connected
to a bomb
yeah no problem no it's not a
problem
let that slide right through
went right
through not a problem
so we we had the meet up and
this was I
have to say one of my favorites
because
there were so many people and I
don't
think I've ever done a meet-up
this far
south and there's a lot of
people that
we have in our in our merry
little group
who are in this general area
some even
flew in from wow I think we had
some
people flying in from New York
but a lot
of people who were from Florida
and of
course who's the first guy we
see when
we show up there he is
Patrick oh yeah Cobo what are
you doing
here he says hello I'm the duke
of the
south this is my protector
I'm in-between his trip to
Langley who
knows well I did inquiring I
said are
you still the penetration
expert he says
yes I still get paid to
penetrate so not
much has changed in that regard
I guess
that's a plus but this is a
business
this was organized by
crystalline david
culpa
and their dad or David's dad
was here as
well he's his name is dick
culpa does
this ring a bell for you I know
his
sister Mia it's with a cake
dick culpa
was for several years the
editor of
cracked magazine cracked which
I mean I
remember reading cracked when I
was a
kid and I love dad which
they've only
competitor damn ad it was a
little it
felt more radical than Mad
Magazine it
was a little more maybe
politically edgy
if I if I can recall correctly
it's
possible glad to know that we
got that
guy as our one of our guys well
yeah and
more producers well he so he
says you
know I listened I guess he only
really
just heard about the show
because David
and Krystal of course dragged
him along
to this to the meet up he says
you know
listen to this said you guys
are you
know you're you're very similar
to what
we were doing with with the
magazine
yeah you got humor but you're
you got a
sharp edge to you and any just
thought
we were cool which were then
cracked
magazine of podcasts don't need
to have
a better endorsement than that
and so he
signed that he brought along a
nice I
guess an anniversary edition of
crack
magazine he signed for me he
also draw
two caricatures one of the
keeper and me
and one of you and me me which
he also
signed and so I love nice I
will send
that to you as soon as you send
me all
the stuff you still promised to
send me
I have a thing right here I
just need
your address of course you do
of course
you do so we had about I'd say
50 60
people and you know we'll talk
about
some of them in the donation
segment but
they could looking crowd very
good look
at Florida crowd well also and
I know
you saw it they had made
printouts of
you the animated no agenda
version of
Jhansi Dvorak and these were
like little
kid height they're very pretty
let's see
and everywhere there's there's
there's
Dvorak just looking over with
his
glasses and then we do of
course you did
the picture there was two of
them made
even funnier they had really
good
printouts of our heads and I
felt very
loved
well Florida can do it right
yeah I see
Tommy Ramirez was here at Tommy
I don't
think but no I'd never met him
in person
but he remember when I did the
the first
pitch enok special on the show
he went
over there to mic him up and so
it was
nice to meet Tommy and sir
captain Pete
of the seven equatorial oceans
he's a
yacht captain and kind of like
a gun for
hire and so he's waiting for
some
catamaran to dock and then he's
going
around the world with the owner
and it's
really interesting people who
who were
there yes sounds like a very
interesting
crowd when you got a guy like
that we
had one of our insiders one of
our ins
excuse me insider did not I
think she's
not registered as a lobbyist
because she
she stays just under the
threshold so
she can be a consultant to the
vape
industry and she gave me a full
rundown
on exactly on the scam oh yeah
and
Bloomberg is you know apparently
Bloomberg's output a hundred
and sixty
million dollars in to pave P AV
e which
is parents against vaping so
vaping and
east cigarettes I guess is what
it would
be but sounds like Bloomberg
and yeah
and also just where
everything's at
Bloomberg is the new Soros I
don't know
if he's even that new I mean
just
briefly on that people say he
has
unlimited money but eventually
that's
not true I mean you you can it
is
possible to spend and a lot of
this is I
think is is what he's worth and
it's not
necessarily liquid I think they
count a
portion of his ownership and
what he's
going more money technically
than Soros
doesn't it is unlimited if you
consider
the fact that the kind of money
doles
out a hundred million two
hundred
million here and there
is really what it amounts to
hey and
considering how fast is his
total nut is
growing
well yes cash flow I think
that's the
you would it's probably it
technically
is unlimited I mean if you
started
dropping five and ten billion
dollars on
something yeah it's not
unlimited if you
start doing that but he's not
he's just
doling out like a million here
a million
there a couple million ten
million it's
unlimited well it's not
technically
unlimited but it seems like
quite a ways
he's gonna die before it runs
out let's
put it that way oh happy
thoughts
let me think well well it we
will thank
some people in the donation
segment
everybody was I mean we had one
of our
producers who drove I think
five hours
from down south he is the the
guy if you
if you see any picture of
Florida
oranges he takes those pictures
he is
for the you know the Florida
orange
Growers Association whatever it
is he is
the guy who does the picture of
the
oranges and gave us a box of at
least
fifty oranges which we've been
trying to
plow through and giving him out
to
people here waiting I trust him
check damn also I met anonymous
millennial and the anonymous
millennial
you you may recall is a lawyer
turns out
she's a prosecutor and she
complimented
us on how how well we interpret
the law
and again thanked us for for
her for the
no agenda show notes which she
used for
one of her paid important
papers which
she got published and it was
well
there's a finder's fee there it
was
about AI and Al goes and she
used a lot
of the knowledge in the show
notes and
the paper got published it was
that good
with the legality of al goes I
guess
she's got hopefully she'll send
the copy
it would be nice to see it was
there
anything else that I can think
of I mean
it was it it was you know how
these
things are is like you're in
it's
non-stop people just talk and I
mean
there were so many so many nice
people
and smart really smart and
good-looking
smart enough to move to Florida
yeah
well it's not a bad place here
I don't
mind I don't mind being it
being a
little bit nutty I mean I wish
Austin
were a little nutty like this
Austin is
just become stupid you know
it's like
what's going on what's going on
is not
okay but I did have a chance
you know to
tune into most stuff that was
going on
and it was quite interesting to
you know
go to the wedding which started
four
o'clock here East Coast time
and then we
were back in the room by around
I guess
11:30 midnight and I look at
that I flip
on the the channels say oh the
caucus
results were at 15% are you
kidding me
CNN gave up its airports at
midnight CNN
just stopped reporting this
they played
the road to the White House
special like
we're not even gonna do it you
know this
was really in the Bing Crosby
Bob Hope
movie no it's you know exactly
what it
is it's just one of their filler
specials that they throw in
there so
MSNBC was at Fox
they weren't covering anything
they were
they were running gosh they
were they
were at that point in the
repeats I
guess but whatever they whatever
long-form program and they have
an only
one really following was MSNBC
and their
heads were just blowing up and
we just
flipping out those guys well
they hate
Bernie so why but it's it's it
wasn't
even that let me see I think I
have a
Supercuts someone gave me yeah
and so
this will give you a little
super little
idea of what was happening and
this was
in the afternoon it was a great
night
for Bernie Sanders I thought it
was a
great I guess it wasn't the
afternoon
night for Donald Trump I
thought it was
a terrible night for the
Democrats
the truth is Bernie Sanders
he's on a
trajectory to be the Democratic
nominee
to me he just don't see him
having any
shot in a general election I'm
panicked
I am
no one but Bernie Stephanie
come on he's
an anarchist he would love to
burn down
the United States if we
nominate a
socialist like Bernie Sanders
we're
gonna lose it'll be like George
McGovern
it'll be a blowout nobody just
says the
obvious Bernie you're full of
it they're
just pandering to the Bernie
people and
you know what pandering gets
you nothing
it certainly doesn't get your
respect
Tom Perez needs to step down
he's a joke
he's a clown he can't run the
Democratic
Party anymore it's lost its way
I don't
say how Democrats do anything
but bleed
out when they put a socialist
at the top
of the ticket it is a death
sentence for
the party and it will lead to
Donald
Trump's reelection if the loser
iced
Leslie put it there the
Democrats
they've got to get out and say I
disagree with socialism I
believe in the
markets I think he's wrong I
think
you'll never get it done and
this
country will never go that
direction by
the Levellers 49 states corvid
didn't
work in England Bernie ain't
gonna work
in the United States anyone but
Bernie
now before we actually dive
into that
something happened Thursday
after the
show on a show day of course
that was
that so fit into what I call the
national security bureaucracy
this was
the breaking news and it was
around 4:00
or 5:00 in the afternoon a show
day of
course and it broke on well all
three
cable news networks but
simultaneously
we had CNN and MSNBC two
different
people who had worked on this
story CNN
got Maggie Haberman and MSNBC
got Adam
Goldman both of them worked for
the New
York Times and so I wanted to
play what
each of them said because
Haberman is
she's very slick in fact
looking at her
I was looking at her Wikipedia
to see
kind of where she came from
and she she's really like Ann
she came
from the New York Post and kind
of the
gossipy side of news but she's
very good
when
someone just gives her the
story and
packaging it and she sounds
like a spook
I mean she's so slick it maybe
she is or
just like someone feeds her
stuff and
she rolls it out and and I
let's just
listen to to this breaking news
because
now of course we find out that
oh my
gosh oh the intelligence
community which
is a total horse crap term
because we
have what 17 not including the
the State
Department's a little little
deal over
there as its 17 intelligence
agencies
yeah so it's like who said what
but
apparently there was a briefing
and
here's Maggie herring the
Habermann very
slick explaining what this is
about the
New York Times just now
reporting that
US intelligence officials have
told
members of Congress that Russia
is
interfering in the 2020 u.s.
presidential race hoping to get
president Trump re-elected
let's bring
in our political and legal
experts
Maggie Haberman of the New York
Times
one of our political analysts
is with us
as well the co-authors of this
article
what does this give us the
upshot sure
but what is upshot I mean is
expecting
it to be good news for the show
or some
psychological problem here yes
okay well
and of course you caught it
sure sure
this article sure well there
was a
briefing given by intelligence
officials
to the House Intelligence
Committee last
week on February 13th and in
that
briefing officials said that
they
believe or one official said
that their
intelligence is that Russia is
interfering or attempting to
interfere
in the 2020 election with the
goal of
reelecting President Trump this
angered
Republicans on the committee
who pushed
back and when the president
learned
about this briefing he was very
upset
and berated McGuire who until
today
was the head of he was the odni
overseeing the National
Intelligence
office and they had never
personally
gotten along there's been a lot
of
speculation that this is why the
president moved in the last two
three
days to replace Maguire with
Rick
Grinnell a loyalist look the
president
was Adam Schiff the debt ranking
Democrat on the House
Intelligence
Committee would use this
information
against him in some way that was
basically his main complaint a
lot of
administration members argue
that same
thing that Republican House
members
argued which is the that you
know they
can point to a lot of areas
where they
suggest the president has been
aggressive against Russia we
also have
obviously seen a lot of
commentary from
the president in public where
he has
sounded appeasing to Russia has
negated
the intelligence community's
findings
that Russia interfered in the
last one
and we know the president sees
this as
some kind of an asterisk on his
own
election in 2016 but it really
tells you
a lot about how the president
is viewing
intelligence and how it is being
presented and handled in the
context of
his reelection campaign so
total opinion
piece as far as I'm concerned
not a
single piece of factual
evidence other
than someone briefed the Senate
committee from the now House
Committee
size committee from the ship
intelligence community which is
not a
community they're all really
compete in
competition with each other but
they
also collaborate this is why I
see it as
as the the true evil
bureaucracy but she
really doesn't have that much
other than
well here we go again
and when it wasn't until I and
I flipped
over and so I didn't get the
whole
lead-in on MSNBC but I'll get
I'll give
you what I have of Adam Goldman
he now
this is a total truth wants to
come out
moment you'll hear him correct
himself
continuously when he says that
he thinks
or you know and then he even
slips in a
little other piece of
information
because thinking logically
Russia sure
Russia wants to influence our
election
and you know by now the typical
American
if you're on the street you say
did
Russia do something
yeah they changed the votes
that's how
that's how it's been drilled
into people
you know meddling or whatever
these
these wishy-washy terms are but
of
course Israel probably has an
agenda and
maybe even the EU and there are
lots of
countries that would like to
influence
our elections as we do in other
countries but know we have to
do this on
the eve of the caucus which I
think
there was a specific reason for
that
which we'll get to but first
listen to
Adam Goldman the same business
they did
four years ago Facebook Ads you
know is
it russian bots on social media
do we
know for sure what it is right
off the
bat
listen he'll do this
continuously I
think I mean I was told I think
I was
told I think I was told it's
gonna be
the same playbook from 2:16 and
concerns
and added concerns about
Russians going
into you know possible voting
infrastructure you know there
are
separate concerns about the
Chinese
getting in the disinformation
that's he
I don't think he was supposed
to say
that but apparently the
briefing also
contained information that the
Chinese
might want to do that so this
sounds to
me like a pretty standard
briefing hey
lots of people want to do stuff
but no
one else reported on China
except this
guy who keeps messing it up
structure
you know there are separate
concerns
about the Chinese getting in the
disinformation campaign but you
know I
think what Russia is gonna do
is going
to be am i misinterpreting this
the guy
keeps correcting himself from
his own
made-up story too I'm told are
you
hearing it that way yeah I am
it doesn't
sound like the guy knows
anything well I
think he's making it up but
then he
corrects himself by saying oh I
was told
I think what Russia is gonna do
is gonna
be what I'm told what Russia
intends to
do is flip from its 2016
playbook and
chocolate let me just make an
interesting point here you know
Republicans
had been grilling sorry
Republicans have
been focusing you know the Obama
administration for not being
tough
enough right that's really main
talking
points not being tough enough
not
sounding the alarm fast enough
not doing
enough to prevent Russian
interference
right the 2016 election and
here we are
it's you know it's a reduct we
were now
now the republicans are getting
the same
information and you know what
happened
in this hearing was quite
concerning to
people the republicans just went
ballistic they went crazy they
they they
were furious that somebody
would have
suggested that there was a
suggestion
that would favored trump any of
this
from so this is the House
Republicans at
hep-c when they were getting
this
briefing they didn't believe
the Donald
Trump Intel officials know you
know some
of the toughest questioning of
this DNR
hostages are I was done by mr.
Hurd you
know former CIA official the
representative the Republican
representative from Texas who
is who's
not running for reelection but
he we are
told was was was one of the
questionnaires to do I
appreciate you
taking a few minutes and get in
front of
a camera for us oh yeah really
important
reporting to do please it's you
know
very was reporting for who is
the skin
New York Times he co-wrote the
article
with Haberman that's why they
had this
dual college they just yeah but
all of
this forgive in marching orders
yes and
this was a set up for the story
I don't
think he broke it but swallow
well now
with some kind of five o'clock
shadow
Don Johnson beard going on
which doesn't
make him look any more
masculine I think
he kind of broke the true news
behind
this which was maybe a plan B
or maybe
even a Hail Mary because oh my
goodness
Bernie's going to win the
reporting is
is that Donald Trump was was
not only
was briefed that both he and
Bernie
Sanders that Russia was trying
to assist
both he and Bernie Sanders that
is the
reporting that we see this we
that we
have this evening then I and I
absolutely understand and
appreciate
that you don't want to talk
about
anything that occurred in a
classified
setting
but as you mentioned since
Bernie
Sanders confirmed that he was
briefed do
you have any question any
reason to
question the reporting that you
all were
briefed on this as well again I
won't go
into that other than our
committee has
consistently for the past year
been
looking at what Russia is
trying to do
in our elections and we believe
that the
upcoming election should be
free from
interference the voters voted
for that
in 2018 when they gave us the
midterm
election was that they wanted
more
oversight of the elections but
again
just oh yeah what's going on
here at
Bernie Sanders you can't hold
it against
Bernie Sanders that this may be
a
preference of Russia but you
can hold it
and ask questions about Donald
Trump if
he again is working as an agent
of
Russia by seeking not only one
to tweet
at Bernie Sanders and try and
amplify
his campaign to get him as a
general
election opponent but to if he
is indeed
firing people on his staff who
are
telling others about Russia's
preferences again that's Donald
Trump
trying to cover up things to
help Russia
so this this is what I saw after
midnight hashtag Bernie knew
blowing up
everywhere
Bernie has to drop out of the
race
because you know he's
misleading he
didn't tell anybody that the
Russians
were also helping him he should
have
disclosed it he's disqualified
now this
was a very pathetic attempt to
get
someone that actually brings me
to the
bonus clip yes indeed because I
think
and I have a new interpretation
of this
clip okay and this is the boys
liver
Lawrence O'Donnell goes off off
the deep
end into the point where even
senator
Ted Cruz had to comment on it
and he
makes again this is new and
this is a
crazy crazy crazy clip played
but we
begin tonight with another test
of
America's ability to be shocked
by
Donald Trump who has very
deliberately
shocked America to the point
where he
hopes that shock has been
replaced by
acceptance the president is a
Russian
operative that sounds like the
description of a bad Hollywood
screenplay but it is I love
that edition by the way yes it
does real
and it is Vladimir Putin's
greatest
achievement decades after
America's
victory in the Cold War and the
collapse
of the Soviet Union the
President of the
United States is now helping the
President of Russia help the
President
of the United States to get
reelected so
that the President of Russia
will have
four more years of the
President of the
United States who he wants in
the Oval
Office this is one of those
shocking
news days if you retain the
capacity to
be shocked in the Trump era by
the Trump
regime which might be better
labeled the
Trump Putin regime and it's one
of those
breaking news situations that
suddenly
makes recent news make more
sense like
the recent news that Donald
Trump has
outdone himself by appointing
one of the
most ridiculous incompetence
fujas in
the Trump administration to be
nothing
less than the Acting Director of
National Intelligence the
president gave
that job to his current
ambassador to
Germany Richard Grinnell who
intends to
remain ambassador to Germany
while being
the acting director of national
intelligence and Richard
Grinnell will
be replacing Joseph Maguire who
was
serving as an acting director of
National Intelligence and he
expected to
be nominated by the president
to be
confirmed by Mitch McConnell's
Senate as
the official director of
National
Alliance until Vladimir Putin
showed
Donald Trump that he needed an
even more
incompetent Director of National
Intelligence because Vladimir
Putin is
working hard to reelect his
favorite
President of the United States
in
history
[Music]
that was I love that clip it's
a it's an
evergreen we must keep it and
trend
cherish it and so I'm looking
at this
slightly differently now this
clip was
completely off the rails or so
it seemed
yeah but this is actually an
anti Bernie
clip yes
MSNBC hates Bernie yep
push the truck Putin thing as
hard as
they can which is old
discredited
nonsense and I don't believe
that the
public thinks except ice does
to the Lib
joes and the people I had
dinner with
it's at all Putin's calling the
shots I
there's no evidence of this
there's no
connection between Putin and
Trump they
don't they rarely communicate
they do
all the things that we've been
doing
considering oil pipelines and
the rest
of it is all anti-russian it's
ridiculous but okay let's just
say that
Putin is really running things
but the
real point is is to make it if
it's so
bad that Putin is supporting
Trump it's
even worse with Bernie yes but
you have
to put do you have to connect
the dots
yourself because certain
MSNBC's already
spent that we spent the wad on
this now
I want to play since we were
talking
about this Grinnell and that
Grinnell
was appointed what is the first
thing
you're gonna do if you're the
new guy on
national security because
there's no
evidence that any of this
really took
place is good all be made at it
can I
just give you a data point last
show on
Thursday I had because I saw
this on
Monday I think I saw some
notice about
this Grinnell guy and he was
going to
replace Maguire and from what
what the
article said and I put him back
in the
show night show notes for today
but the
article stated that it was kind
of a
known thing that Grinnell or
that
McGwire was was you're gonna do
something else and he was kind
of on his
way out and this and the
Grinnell guy is
interesting first of all he's
the at
this point now the highest
ranked openly
gay official in the
administration not
that we could mention that it
only works
if it's Democrats I guess also
you know
he he and his partner he had
cancer and
then
he went into remission after a
couple
years this is you know maybe
four years
ago and he and his partner made
this app
that helps people with
chemotherapy you
seem like a really nice guy
he's also
not a total slob I mean he was
permanent
you n me see he was the he was
the
spokes whole four four
ambassadors the
United Nations he worked it
we'd always
been on a Republican but he's
not just
like all of a sudden some
dipshit who
shows up the way they make it
sound now
he has been around and on the
international scene for quite a
while
including hanging about he's
got some
intelligence connections
anywhere he
wouldn't be the ambassador to
Germany
that's what embassies are for
it's what
they do
let's go from the point where
he gets
the job the first thing he's
gonna do is
check out this bull crap that's
leaked
leaked from the Intel committee
of the
house which is a leak central
as where
to Adam Schiff is and he leaks
everything he can make stuff up
he has
anonymous sources he does all
these
things and they heard from
someone the
deputy Republicans are saying
this is
bull but that gets leaked out
that you
know the Russians are working
out
already are already working on
to
twenty20 elections and this is
all about
the same time that it turns out
to the
real intelligences that Bernie
is really
one that the Russians like
let's just
ignore that for a second so
Grinnell
gets the job the first thing
he's gonna
do is cuz Trump says go check
into this
sounds like a bunch of hogwash
that
there's just promoting the same
old
Russian name so he immediately
obviously
it's the first thing you do you
get the
job you start poking around
asking
around what's going on turns
out that
one guy did interview him about
this
specific thing and this is the
clip
asking the new guy about the
House
Intelligence Committee this is
not
reported as the national
security
adviser to the president have
you
assured the president that this
US
intelligence finding is real
well I have
not seen the finding I think
what he's
referring to and what folks are
talking
about is a briefing that took
place last
week at the House Intelligence
Committee
exactly
now that was leaked to the press
and I have not seen that report
and and
from what I understand about
the report
is that there was no and again
I get
this secondhand but from
Republican
congressman that were in the
committee
there was no intelligence
behind it I
haven't seen any intelligence
to support
the reports that were leaked
out of the
house but it's just hard to
comment on
that because again I wasn't
there and
and these are leaks that were
coming
from a house Intel committee
here and I
haven't seen any intelligence
that would
would back up what I'm reading
in the
papers in fact part of the lie
that the
m5m was propagating was that
Trump went
nuts and bitched out McGuire no
no it
was even what happened was
we'll heard
who we know we'll heard is a
you know
he's on his way out he's a CI
he's a
little to boast II for a CIA
guy but
he's done a lot of covert ops
and he was
really grilling cuz he didn't
buy it all
this is bullcrap as this
briefing that
you're doing I think he was
kind of onto
it but to cover that up you
know oh yeah
Trump was livid oh my god it's
I mean we
are at peak peak nuts now
specifically
MSNBC now MSNBC the rest China
checked
out but I mean just just to add
to what
you were saying here this is
Chris
Matthews who you know all we
already
know he hates Bernie he's he
compares
Bernie to you know that back in
the
Cuban Missile Crisis it would
have
turned out differently they
probably
would have executed Chris
Matthews in
Central Park I mean he says all
these
things is a horrible so here is
him got
nowhere near did his job he got
more
than a majority more than a
majority
that 67 percent that is the
name of the
game it is pretty much over
unless that
changes I was reading last
night Brian I
know you're a history guy too
I'm reading last night about
the fall of
France in the summer of 1940
and the
general run no calls up
Churchill and
says it's over insurances of
how can it
be you got the greatest army in
Europe
how can it be over he said it's
over so
I had that print suppressed
feeling I
can't be as well as Carville
but he is
damn smart and I think he's
damn right
on this one so they have for
the younger
amongst us he's referring to
the capital
halation of France against the
Nazis I
mean what is the man thinking
when he
does this stuff that's not
necessarily
healthy behavior and he's
referring to
not referring to James Carville
this I
think this is a two parter clip
another
guys off the rails well I
really loved
the first clip which I'll play
for you
because here he admits
something very
important to Nicole Wallace
another
another otherwise that you know
used to
be the intelligent human being
has just
gone off the rails of idiocy
and he lays
down the line for her and tells
her
exactly what the problem is and
I think
he's right James you Mary Lynn
outside
of the media hugs I mother of an
eight-year-old I interact with
a lot of
people outside say media life
is part of
the blame John do you ever get
a chance
to live outside of your media
life I
mean it's not it's really hard
because
we're some girls they're fun to
play
with it's way outside my media
life it's
part of the blame that the media
shoulders in this is that we
respond to
the squeaky wheels I learned
everything
I knew as a press person from
watching
the war room and from starting
the
Clinton games but the the
Sanders
campaign and the Trump campaign
they've
taken these things to dark art
of
abusing the price of bullying
the price
I mean what what do we miss in
terms of
paying attention to a squeaky
angry
minority and ignoring the
majority I
don't know everybody complains
me in the
media and the press that said
I'm going
to tell you this the press has
no not
near as much power as they had
when I
was young remember Lyndon
Johnson said
if I lost the war because I
lost Walter
Cronkite yeah I mean if you
lose well
but say you're not gonna lose
anything I
mean that's just a way America
and I
don't mean to pick on what I
like him I
would say - yeah you did mean
to pick on
wolf but I think that's that
that is the
most salient point he has ever
mentioned
in this election cycle and
probably ever
will is you don't have the
power anymore
mainstream media you don't have
it you
don't have the same powers it
used to be
and these people
haven't figured it out same
thing about
any of our hosts own my own
network
right now it just had this
diffusion of
media power and Media Authority
and
you're right Trump and Bernie
Sanders
are able to and what about
would the
happiest person right now it's
about 115
Moscow time this thing is going
very
well for Vladimir Putin I
promise crazy
are you I mean do you think
they really
believe this yes this
frightening it's
like they're clinically insane
let's
take the second part of this
that's
exactly what the intelligence
agents
they think is going on great
that Putin
is helping him and plants out
they're
gonna primary does watch
Putin's the
only reason why would radomir
Putin
would be helping Bernie Sanders
of
course because she wants Donald
Trump to
win
I mean it's a straight line
it's a
straight line by the way I'm
sorry I
kind of missed that like a
straight line
I mean it's a straight line and
I don't
think that the Sanders campaign
in any
way is collaboration
I think they don't wipe this
story but
the story of the back and the
reason
that the story is the fact is
food
that's doing everything that he
can to
help Trump including trying to
get
Bernie Sanders the Democratic
nomination
if you remember what Bernie ran
in 2016
his chief strategist was told
now Ford
sidekick an inkling I mean this
just
thing just didn't start right
now
and it's something that people
need to
know about then they could be
made aware
of it the candidates on the
debate stage
in South Carolina on Monday
night need
to quit attacking each other
and start
talking about where where this
country
is and how do you push it
forward under
some some real choices that
Democrats
have tonight I mean and this
was really
truly an MSNBC thing and I and
I don't
know why no one else really
participated
in it to that degree
they were just is there
something that
that I'm missing why it's so
important
to them specifically maybe they
had
maybe they're in there closer
to the
spokes holes for the Democrat
Party okay
that makes sense and the party
doesn't
look like Bernie and so there's
just no
clean honest no kidding
especially I like the kind of
screwy
stuff now that one I did get a
good clip
that relates to the first
Bernie clip
you play but also to the this
last one
too and this is I it was one of
the few
times that that David Brooks was
somewhat insightful being a
Democrat he
even though he's posing as a
Republican
on the PBS Newshour on their
phony-baloney back and forth
with with
Mark shields as a Democrat he
would make
this observation and I think is
pretty I
think it's borderline profound
even
though it's hard to say this is
Brooks
discussing both Bloomberg and
Sanders
and he makes a very salient
point then
partly it's practice I mean you
know he
doesn't even do media interviews
particularly well and so and
he's been
Guardian furnace and all the
other
candidates have been playing
this game
for a year now yeah and when
you're up
on a debate stage
you're not thinking you're
repeating
something you said 50 times
before and
so he didn't have any practice
he didn't
have any of that what strikes
me also
about the party first Sanders
tells a
very clear narrative
corporations
screwing us that's just a very
clear
narrow everybody gets it
resonates with
a lot of people I don't think
anybody
else on that stage has a
narrative
that's quite that clear and so
if the
power that Trump had a very
clear
narrative those cultural elites
they're
ruining life for us and having
that very
compelling clear narrative
the great advantage the second
thing
that struck me is Democrats
growing up
in where the party is now have
the
mental equipment to go after a
billionaire
it's like baked into the belief
system
of the party they do not have
the mental
equipment in categories to go
after a
socialist and what struck me is
that
they they don't really quite
know how to
take down Sanders and so there
they let
him go now they regret it I
guess he's a
monster of their own creation
here's joy
Reid finally seeing the light
joy Reid
of course though also on MSNBC
I think
that the rest of us that sort
of look at
politics of underestimated the
sheer
unadulterated rage the anger of
working-class people especially
young
people who are living in with
three
roommates and have a lift job
and an
uber job and they can't make it
and
they're looking at my
generation gen we
could have it all in the
Clinton years
and we were living well in our
parents
and grandparents and they're
like throw
the tables over there turning
the tables
over and they don't care what
the
potential results is they are
the
hungriest and he only had to
consolidate
them and the moderates the sort
of mushy
moderates think that they have
the
luxury of luxuriating on
whether they'll
have someone who can speak six
languages
you know maybe today I want
just one
who's from the Midwest and you
know
maybe I'll go with the vice
president
even african-american older
voters they
are like we're gonna go with
the we know
no one else is hungry angry
enraged and
determined as Sanders voters
Democrats
need to sober up and figure out
what the
hell they're gonna do about that
because if he's the nominee for
Senate
races House races everything
what she's
saying is and that means aoc
rashida to
leave is the whole new that
really the
new democrat party who we saw
come in in
2016 2018 just as democrats yes
it's now
so Bernie's a problem what are
we going
to do about the Bernie problem
this is a
serious problem they didn't
expect it
somehow I think even though it
was
obvious well to us to us I
think well I
want to play one more clip then
this is
again Brooks and shields shields
and he makes he's a stammers
and the
Hammers point out that Brooks
and
shields is a you know this is
serious
it's almost like public
broadcasting and
other company like the BBC when
they're
on PBS yeah no it's not true
but that's
the that's the illusion is the
impression you're supposed to
get yes
yes
so shields is not happy about
anything
either and he also has a bit
kind of the
commentary I thought thought
was worth
Barry playing on the show just
one thing
about the Democrats that is
just what if
the kind of fits in here and
that is the
Democrats I think after that
debate are
in danger of fragmenting and
fracturing
themselves and I think there's
a page in
American history the the the the
Revolutionary War the
Revolutionists
sought the active alliance with
the
Charles the 16th of France
Louis the
16th and and Charles and
started in
Spain monarchies to help them I
mean but
one thing they a single
objective and
when that was to defeat the
King of
England to get independent
monarch that
the devil demonic the Democrats
better
say that they better come
together in a
hell of a hurry if because
they're
they're all sole purpose in
2020 is to
defeat demonic to defeat Donald
Trump
and I just I think the danger of
fracturing is severe well yes
and the
message went out Brian Williams
delivered it
listen hey Chris I'm not above
quoting
Chris Matthews and I have this
written
down on my legal pad from your
last
segment about Bernie about his
new
exposure as the frontrunner and
about
how they're gonna come at him
they're
gonna kill him but they may not
stop him
which is unique to politics a
fascinating quote I think you're
probably hundred percent right
what Wow
that's a good one this guy it
doesn't
matter he's nothing he can do
to protect
himself it's not gonna be small
aviation
it's not gonna be the hot tub
it's not
gonna be canoeing somewhere he
already
has a heart issue it's so
simple this
guy is a walking dead man I'm
sorry but
I do you hear stuff like that
oh that
was just a metaphor can you
imagine if
some metaphor Tucker Carlson or
Sean
Hannity or judge Jeanine or any
boxing
friends
shoe man imagine if I had said
that you
did I did I'm just explaining
how
they're gonna do it they're
gonna kill
they can kill and they're gonna
kill him
but they won't stop him that's
right the
well they're not gonna kill him
until
after I talked about this at
the dinner
table mm-hmm and my thinking is
if this
is if it's and it's gonna have
to be one
of this I don't knows you have
to be an
intelligence agency that just
fed up her
I don't know how it's gonna
happen I how
they're gonna get away with it
but they
will cuz you're what you said
is the
premise is fine he's Yellin and
screamin
one of the clips I didn't have
his
shields again saying and
there's this
all like all is set up you know
he's old
he's this he's that you know
we're
getting set up for something
bad to
happen
he's kind of and so yeah well
that was
expected that was expected is
that
she'll says Bernie Sanders is
the most
angry politician he's always
mad he's
raging mad he's shouting he's
screaming
he's at the top he's at the top
of his
lungs during all the speeches I
mean
Trump is too but for a
different effect
and it's just like he's the
angry guy
all he saw angry is too angry
was it got
to him it's just that the whole
thing
looks like a setup to me but
nothing's
gonna happen until after South
Carolina
which bite in can salvage yes
and I have
laughing well now I have some
numbers of
course I'm not laughing at you
you're
with me you're my partner let
me give
you the numbers
okay because as Biden will have
to win
South Carolina and then that
will
because of the a das boat and
this is
this is from the hill so very
anti-trump
the entrance push to all they
are in
this article the entrance polls
show
there was one thing Biden was
right
about when talking about his
coalition
in Nevada is it Nevada or
Nevada its
Nevada okay if you say in a
validate
Nevada its Nevada because in
the vine no
your friends I know if you say
it that's
the wrong way people scoff at
you so I
always thought it was Nevada
yeah it is
Nevada okay if you're living
Nevada is
Nevada if you live outside the
Madison
Nevada which is a lot okay
Connecticut
Nevada
so talking about his coal is
strong
called his strong lead with
black voters
Biden received the most black
votes
whatever that means but I think
in this
context a dose 39% a
demographic which
sander trailed the former vice
president
winning 27% so not that far
apart but
Joe even though and are the
results in
is there a final tally yet I
haven't
even seen I know what I know
you know
this 59% of all Hispanics are
voting for
Sanders yeah this the brown you
need to
say brown community the blood I
looked
at it said specifically
Hispanics brown
community well I'm just like
brown
committee may be different to
the m5m
men that this is this is this
is the
issue I believe this is the
this is
where the presidency will be
won or lost
is on this particular
demographic and
unless it beckons straight for
a second
over to let me finish my point
yeah okay
I was saying that Biden has to
win South
Carolina we're talking about an
unfortunate accident yeah that
could
happen to Bernie but it's not
gonna
happen to him if Biden win South
Carolina and then they go into
Super
Tuesday and it gets all jammed
up now if
Biden loses South Carolina and
then
super to
have to wait to see what
happens on
Super Tuesday then after that
then all
everything's everything is up
for grabs
are you gonna keep everybody
running
there nobody wants to drop out
because
they want to create a brokered
convention and they made a
point of
asking about this at the could
at the
debates Bernie's the only
ministers if I
get the most I'm in I don't
care about
the convention rules are it's
already
he's asking for trouble and of
course he
would get screwed because that
would be
the idea and then it burned down
Milwaukee which was the threat
of the
creeps that are behind the
Bernie you
know campaign so I will remind
you that
I out of control I will remind
you I
floated the idea of the brokered
convention very early on I was
kind of
scoffed at kind of not by me
okay so
here's here is the problem for
the
entire Democrat Party and
anyone else
who was running I don't know if
vermin
supreme is running again I hope
he is
it's always good to have the
independence in here this is
Tim Scott
Tim Scott is a Republican black
were a
das Republican from don't want
to say
easy from Arizona Carolina so
he is the
architect behind the
opportunities owned
he is the one the president
called out
amongst his many black friends
wall-to-wall black friends
Kanye there's
no the state that many if you
got conned
yet the State of the Union he
had the
Tuskegee Airmen all the black
friends
were out there this is Tim Scott
prediction president Trump will
see a
50% increase in his
african-american
support it will go from 8% in
2016 to a
minimum of 12 percent in 2020
he may
even get to 15 percent of the
african-american say and in a
game over
well listen to what the listen
to what
the Democrats are saying that
they have
top tier candidates that say
redlining
was a good thing having a
negative
impact on African American
homeownership
and what does President Trump
doing
during the same time simple he
said he
had an executive order to
increase of
ability of home ownership an
african-american homeownership
since he
took office is up about two
percent
think about having a top-tier
Democratic
candidate that talks about
harassing
african-american males through
stop and
first compare that against
president
Trump's criminal justice reform
packages
that are making the justice
system more
fair for african-americans
disproportionately that it has
been in a
long time at least 30 years
think about
the conversation you had with
Jim
Clyburn around full employment
during
slavery versus higher wages
more jobs 7
million more jobs during this
administration more than half
of those
jobs going to African Americans
and
Hispanics the wealth gap closes
as the
home ownership goes up
President Trump
is not just talking a good game
he is
walking a good game and the
icing on the
cake
think about this President
Trump got
permanent funding for HBCUs for
the
first time in the country's
history I
think he's got the numbers
right and I
think that's going to determine
the
election no matter what anybody
does I'm
not gonna argue with his with
his points
I mean you still see the
adamant left
liberal black voter there that
are
activists there hate Trump and
they're
never gonna like him anyway
mm-hmm
there's there's a core group
that was
always gonna vote for Trump no
matter
what as a core group is always
gonna
vote Democrat and socialist if
they can
and this that huge group in the
middle
that makes all the difference
and that's
part of that is a large black
contingent
that sometimes doesn't even
bother to
vote because they don't like
anybody
Trump has done a good job of
getting
people in fact although I have
to say I
was a little scared some Trump
clips
from his his speech he's been
giving a
speech a day in one place right
rally
Rylee thing Riley rallies big
rallies
and they're pretty funny I want
to play
two of these because it's the
contrast
greatly with what the Democrats
are
doing and one of them is he's
talking
about how the all these voters
came in
from all over the place to vote
for him
in the last election it's gonna
be even
bigger than next time but he
praises a
funny phrase in this particular
clip
this is Trump and Colorado and
I can't
say bigger coz what was bigger
than that
they came from the hills they
came from
the mountains they came out of
the
rivers they came all over the
place okay
get your mind out of the gutter
Dvorak
what anyway so now meanwhile
NBC of all
the places they clipped a bunch
and I
would I would listen to the
same speech
I believe this was the I think
this is
the Colorado speech to I saw
yeah I saw
part of this he they clipped a
bunch of
excerpts that were all kind of
funny and
they put it together as a
package NBC
did Lester Holt intro did and
it's not
exactly what I would have
clipped out of
this but I was actually stunned
at what
they did clipped out a lot of
funny
stuff and I'm thinking they
were doing
it to kind of ridicule Trump
thinking oh
look what a hole this guy is to
say all
these nasty things but play
this clip
this is the recent Trump
stand-up on
debates and I don't know if
anybody
watched last night's debate it
got very
big ratings and you know what
many Mike
didn't do well s
I was gonna send him a note
saying it's
not easy doing what I do isn't
it how
about Klobuchar did you see her
she
jumped she job she couldn't
Alfred he
knew middle of dinner and said
something
slightly derogatory and she
said are you
accusing me of being dumb who
would make
it safer like that because
that's really
what he was doing but he
doesn't want to
say that
Alfred E Newman Buddha Buddha
touch bad
little Buddha chase leaving
Donald Trump
in Texas these people
how about sleepy Joe how about
his
performance what what it's
great to be
it's great to be with the great
people
of Ohio
Joe Joe you're in Iowa you're
in Ireland
five times Bloomberg made a
fool out of
himself last night each other
he's
another one who's gonna ha oh I
can't
breathe I can't breathe
don't ask me the question
please I look
at my wife I said let's send
them a
little note it's not so easy up
there to
do what I did right I did great
in the
debates I became president
because of
the debates because unlike
Billy Mike I
could answer questions now the
funniest
gag he did a sight gag in there
but
nobody no I guess they didn't
know you
didn't get in your laughs for
me but I
saw it and I've seen it a
couple of
times he says he says Pete
Buddha jizz
I've had it up to here with him
and by
His grace this chest to
indicate I've
had it up to here and it's a
little
short guy so he's indicating
yeah it's a
funny sight gay done it a
couple times I
think he's gonna drop it cuz
he's not
getting any response from it
well
because the sight gag did
doesn't work
on the No Agenda show so he's
like what
away there you go what a waste
what do I
leader but so Trump does his biz
stick and we either you either
appreciate it or you say well
no this is
unpresidential this is not right
that we have us a one of me I
mean I've
heard better stand ups but he's
not bad
considering worries for his
position and
what he's doing so we have a
stand-up
comic has President of the
United States
and some people are very
offended by
this oh oh yes very I find it
to be
great I think it's it's a it's
a it's a
rough respite from what we've
had in the
past the seriousness the phone
enos and
the rest of it the yin to the
yang of
course here at the at the
wedding
a lot of anti-trump errs half
it was a
half Jewish wedding which was
so we were
on the on the bride's side the
Jewish
part some boots on the ground
just some
you know some anecdotal talk
hate
Bloomberg hate Bernie
yeah Warren's kind of
interesting which
I found fascinating why was
she's doing
fading
yes she's fading well I think
it's
because of how she attacked
Bloomberg
for some reason that that hit a
lot of
anti-trump errs here there like
that and
you know Bloomberg has not seen
favorable well the Bloomberg is
a trump
and in Democrats clothing here
as far as
they're actually what they
accused Trump
of what I'm seeing he truly is
little
little little frightening guy
who has
absolutely no compassion for
human
beings that's the way I see him
yeah
she's not likable and I and I
didn't get
I didn't get any clips but all
of a
sudden there was this little
blip of
problem in the afternoon at the
Nevada
caucus and they were talking to
the
Makati McCully I think his name
is the
second with Cuddy he's the the
chair of
the Democratic caucus in the
Democratic
Party in Nevada and a first of
african-american and he was
there was
the
what the what's his name the
the chair
but Perez Perez and and all of
a sudden
well so we hear that people
have to sign
an NDA if they're if they are
captains
and they'll be reporting and
some people
say I'm not signing this nday
and so I
can't say anything about even
if it goes
wrong and of course that's why
they put
it in place but John their
responses as
if they listened to the show
they said
oh it's a non disparaging
agreement it's
not a nondisclosure agreement
we all
know what NDA's are now because
we heard
about that from Michael
Bloomberg and he
won't release them even though
he's
released three which are very
very mild
they're probably another we
think
another fifteen million dollars
you
spent on that pain paying
people off an
extra extra five mil per NDA
but they
took it straight to non
disparaging
agreement okay fine
the producers around the world
pay
attention to this stuff this
type of m5m
propaganda is coming your way
too it's
not unique to the United States
I'm sure
I'm sure this template will be
used and
we've got elections coming
everywhere
it's it's something to sit back
and
enjoy because I think it's
once-in-a-lifetime we go
through this I
think well is a cup maybe not
there's a
couple of things that kept you
brought
up one in particular was that
the or no
is something one of the guys
talking to
Chris Matthews one of those one
of the
Talking Heads and you know the
mainstream media is not as
important as
it used to be right which is
probably
true but it's only not as
important as
it used to be by a notch or two
because
the whole idea of the putin's
calling
the shots that you hear at the
dinner
table or the lib dozer oh these
guys are
all glued to the mainstream
media it's
still important to them yes yes
and
that's at least half the public
well I
think maybe half the public has
gotten a
clue because it's been brought
out and
hounded pounded that the New
York Times
and The Washington Post in
particular
and Emmas
BC our Stooges for the Democrat
Party
and but if you look at their
total
circulation they still have a
lot of
influence because they get
there you
know they're radio stations
pick up on
their stories and and then
replay it's
still it's still NBC I mean
there's
still the NBC big network part
of it and
there's a lot more than just
MSNBC
yeah NBC's part of it too yeah
well
that's the main cable model for
that
that's the comcast comcast it's
the
mother lode exactly well with
that I'd
like to thank you for your
courage and
say in the morning to you the
man who
put the C in MSNBC Jhansi -
good morning
to you mr. Adam Carolla in the
morning
all butchered ground feet in
the air
subs in the water and all the
Dames
nights out there yes in the
morning to
the trolls in the troll room ha
ho this
is up there 1408 i don't think
we've had
it quite that high recently
that's a
good number very good no no all
right
trolls good to have you here
and of
course this is no agenda stream
comm
where you can listen to our
show live
many shows are live you control
in real
time and also discover great
podcasts
that you want to listen to it's
it's
kind of a it's kind of a
fabulous little
deal there and it's cost zero
to you and
you meet interesting people or
trolls
also in the morning - Darrin
O'Neill's
second in a row he's going for
the hat
trick he brought us the artwork
for
episode 1218 the title of that
used
quite often at the meetup
people enjoyed
saying existential and this was
the the
marbles the UK the Elgin
marbles that
had been spilled and it was
obscure now
we agree was obscure but it was
still
what there were like two or
three that
we liked I think there was
actually yes
there was quite a few they'll
be kinda
like yeah let me see what we
had there
we had the marbles the the
tainted
cupcake from kamasutra blogger
was nice
except he screwed up on the on
the on
the branding he used you know
the could
have used the better no agenda
logo
so you know it just didn't
really
promote the show as much as it
could
have you liked the my crate
Mike Reilly
fake nuke cloud yeah you didn't
see it
that was you say oh it looks
like God
that was Lisa Simpson yeah I
did and so
that was enough for us to say
no john
bolton
was just tired of putting
people on on
the cover arts not necessarily
a great
idea yeah we've used bolton way
too off
there we have so Darren O'Neill
thank
you very much for bringing us
that
artwork that is highly
appreciated it is
part of our value for value
system where
then people are who don't
listen to well
they listen to the show but
they're not
listeners they're producers
everybody
chips in in their own way
Darren does an
incredible amount not just with
pre
streams and his own life shows
don't
podcast and does a lot but the
artwork
is and guys multi-talented he
will be
missed when he finally keels
over so
thank you Thank You Darren
O'Neill we
gotta be careful of these
people I tried
to warn them John you and I
have been
doing this show for it this is
our 13th
year we've seen people burn on
burnout
and keel over oh I see what you
mean
yeah that's what I mean it's
it's more
of a protection Airy things and
you know
make sure you're okay man man
man it's
no I mean that actually with
super love
no agenda our generator calm
that's what
happened to Martin JJ yes well
Martin
chasey went years and years
without
getting picked and he got it on
a roll I
started getting picked all the
time well
and then he stays I'm getting
picked too
much they started backing off
but this
is like anybody else even if
you're a
performer people or
professionals know
this you'd back off
you don't yeah you just stop
doing it
realize oh my god I've been
killing
myself doing these things yeah
Martin
JJ's by the way he's still in
every
single he during every show
he's live in
the troll room yeah so but this
was a
contender
it used to be you're talking
about me
now do I go through the Delray
Beach

funny
Stephanie she said I'm forced
to open a
PayPal account or else I could
not
donate it's annoying but the
show is
worth it most the time I don't
is it
true that in Europe because in
the
United States you can go to the
links
that are on the newsletter that
are
paypal links and you just put
your
credit card you don't have to
have an
account yes I I think that's
true I do
know that PayPal accounts are a
problem
if you want to connect it to
your bank
it like takes weeks for that to
take
place but I think you can just
do a
credit card you know what all
the kids
are using and we and I think
we've
talked about it this cash app
thing is
like crazy that's what people
really
like cash which is a part of
the PayPal
universe I think or is it part
of square
I don't know what you're
talking about
well this is this thing called
cash app
and that's what a lot of people
the
youtubers use it to donate
money and I
guess it's it has very low
friction it's
frayed low friction yeah you
were
talking about moaning and
groaning about
these dis scammers that it were
dick
stealing all your data no oh
and you
know it might night mine yeah
no I think
cash app like square I think
they have
their own they because that's
what's his
face Jack Dorsey's other cut no
is it
not checked oh yeah Jack
Dorsey's other
company square yeah and so cash
app is
part of square so I don't think
they're
part of the you know the the
plaid

anything but they might be I
don't know
all I know is that people like
donating
money with it that's that's the

the there was the the document

mockumentary not mockumentary

dramatized version of that what
was it
the brexit thing were they
added to the
same material and so I started
the the
great hacker like it's
completely
repetitive there's nothing new
here and
I'm not that impressed with
Cambridge
analytic a well it was it was a
straw
man okay yes but there's such
praise as
water in it praise is lauded
over this
this film like that I cut out
of it it
was like repetitive and it's
like okay

probably
right yeah it felt a bit like
oh boy oh
yes is so smart over there
Cambridge
analytic mmm-hmm no no and if

[Music]
[Music]
so we had a couple of
interesting
television moments again I'm
going to
contrast two of them on the
previous
show we talked about rod
Blagojevich and
the reasons for the president
commuting
his sentence blog dough and the
way that
read to me was very simple we
went back
into the history and there was
a lot of
corruption it was interesting
how Obama
came to power was interesting
who was
involved at the time how he get
in power
when I say power when he would
got at
his Senate seat and what kind
of Chicago
politics took place to remove
his two
contenders event essentially
with sex
scandals or relationship
scandals but
the main issue being he was
thrown in
jail for so-called
even though the news reports
will say
for trying to sell Obama's
Senate seat
no it was for corruption for a
involving
a hospital which is you could
say is
part of everyday politics but
certainly
is because it happens all the
time but
it when you when you after
someone you
can use that as corruption I
think it
was because the actual
corruption
mentioned was for a hospital
and at the
time it was President Obama
then-senator
Obama who was on the Illinois
Hospital
and I want to say Medical Board
I think
he ran the board and so he was
clearly
involved in this and that needs
to be
covered up and if you look at
the news
articles if when President
Obama was
about to leave at the end of
2016
rod Blagojevich was there
saying hey
well I hope he does the right
thing and
pardons me and of course it was
that not
2016 I'm sorry that had been
the first
term 2012 yeah 2012 of course
the
President Obama did not had
never
pardoned him and now
Blagojevich is out
the president Trump is kind of
acting
like yeah I know him a little
bit he
knows him better than that
because
they were in the in the reality
show
together but he did an
appearance on Fox
and he did an appearance on CNN
are you
like diamond and pearl here now
you
wanted to say until you get to
ten they
wanted to ten what lips max oh
okay
you could have just number ten
by the
way he could have just said it
I mean no
no no no I was waiting for you
to stop
me on the bail I just wanted to
catch
enough of him cuz I thought I
was
imagining it and so now I'm not
okay
well thank you it could also be
because
I'm in a shitty hotel room I
have by the
way being in that shitty hotel
room I
wanted to mention something you
turned
away from the mic or something
a little
while ago and got this beautiful
resonance this huge echo were
you
talking toward the bathroom I
don't know
what it was but it was like wow
just
stop getting something like
this like
this was I talking like this
somehow
yeah do you think that's
beautiful
why no it's it just sounds just
sounded
cool cider it's under modulator
but it
sounded pretty cool wow man
my whole setup is you've
interrupted it
to such a degree I don't really
know
what to say I'm going I'm so
sorry
though I'm so sorry that I was
lip
smacking I we're supposed to
call each
other I'll I called you out
it's not a
big deal okay do you remember
what I was
talking about
yeah blonde oh yeah dead the
hospital
okay thanks I hope I hope other
people
remember better than you do so
here he
is on Fox and this is Watters
world
Jesse Watters who who clearly
knows
what's going on and this was a
very
clear drive and if you listen
carefully
you'll hear that it's in there
a drive
towards what we were talking
about on
the last show before anyone
else kind of
figured that out are you angry
at Barack
Obama I'm disappointed in
Barack Obama
angry Adam here an opportunity
a rock
Obama that you haven't spoken
to anybody
about wild lights let me say
this
generally I know a lot of
things about a
lot of different people who I
knew in
politics that I haven't spoken
about and
I would not exclude him from
that list
are you planning on speaking
about what
you know about Barack Obama and
how he
came up in that Chicago system
you know
obviously notoriously corrupt
city well
I'm interested in telling the
truth and
and and doing it without any
spirit of
meanness or malice but to be
truthful
and in talking about things
that might
be of interest and that
actually might
serve the public good is there
anything
you want to get off your chest
about the
former president with regards
to that
that you haven't told anybody
before
yeah I'll say that the former
president
well let me just say this that
the
current president has trumped
the former
president when it comes to the
testicular of virility
necessary to do
the right thing and to undo
injustice I
went to prison and spent nearly
eight
years in prison for things that
aren't
crimes routine politics a lot
of the
same fake stuff they that they
tried to
do to president Trump they've
done to me
and some of the very same
people some of
the same characters who did it
to me are
involved in doing it to
president Trump
President Obama surely must
have known
something like that that that
were the
circumstances surrounding my
situation I
think he could have acted at the
appropriate time considering the
political implications when he
left
office he didn't do it I think
it was
kind of leading the witness a
little bit
but it was clear what was going
on there
the the other side I don't
think I've
seen Anderson Cooper so mad on
air
before can you ever remember a
time when
Cooper was mad like just mad
and saying
bullshit and you have a clip of
this
maybe you'll join me in the
fight to
reform our criminal justice
system
something about the problem of
over
sentencing blacks and Latinos
right
I learned that when I was there
okay
what's sad is that you hadn't
actually
learned that when you mattered
when you
actually were the governor you
work you
talk about working for the
criminal
justice reform there's a lot of
people
in Chicago there's a lot of
people in
Illinois
who actually like spit up when
you say
that because when you were
actually
empowering when you were
actually
governor and you could have
helped
thousands what do you think
Cooper is
talking about there with a lot
of people
spit up when you talk about
that and by
the way Anderson Cooper is of
course
part of the national security
bureaucracy he was CIA it's like
everyone knows that at least he
was
there part of the time what is
what is
his connection to all this that
he's so
mad and people are spitting up
when they
hear him talk like this people
knew he
was he what you have to ask the
question
what is blog oh saying that has
set him
off on this tangent of of anger
what he
said is that no I nobody I mean
I
understand what he said
technically
mm-hmm
but why does what's it got to
do with
him what's he got to do it
would did so
personal to Cooper that is the
right
question cases he blew it off
the
governor after you inherited a
huge
backlog nearly three thousand
clemency
petitions that you failed to
review in
fact you were sued by you were
sued as
governor by Cabrini Green legal
aid to
try and pressure you to
actually pay
attention to clemency cases
instead of
extorting people for money and
campaign
contributions so it's a little
ironic
and frankly a little sad and
pathetic
and hypocritical and you
talking about
you know commuting and getting
a you get
a commutation of a sentence
which is
within the president's right
but you
ignored a whole hell of a lot
of other
people who are hoping you might
give
them clemency when you actually
matter
so absolutely there wasn't a
person it
was a statement
I'd be happy to work with
people on
criminal justice reform but I
wouldn't
work with you then why why does
pooper
all of a sudden say he's happy
to work
with PZ a politician he's happy
to work
with PT ties it supposed to be a
supposed to be a journalist
host I'm
telling you this there's this
is someone
who's been told to take this
boy down is
what's going on
oh this is what it is and
question okay
and leader trust that when
you've been
put where I was and you have
all the
time that I was given to think
and
back on some of the things you
might
have done different that's
certainly an
area that you talked about that
I
certainly wish I would have
done more on
there's no question about that
Brno among my biggest regrets I
didn't
know how corrupt the criminal
justice
system was until they did it to
me oops
oops oops oops this is now
pooper at
this point his mouth is
scrunched up his
eyes are spitting fire and that
was a
wake-up call having said that I
want to
say one thing about me as
governor when
the cases came to me and I was
given
files about people who were
seeking
clemency or pardons I acted
appropriately sued I mean that
is what I
did clemencies and I did
pardons I
didn't didn't do nearly enough
it wasn't
a priority I would acknowledge
that I
didn't go to the office every
day doing
that instead I was giving
health care to
all the children attention to
our
seniors and the disabled so you
were you
when I regret that much money to
hospitals in order to get
campaign
contributions but see that's
took that
that's a big lie they got eight
million
dollars from me and I'm proud
for you
letter lines they got it after
you had
promised it
I ordered it before that
happened and it
didn't they got it while I was
governor
that is not factual okay
governor Blagojevich I do wish
you the
best I really I'm glad for your
family
that you're out and I don't
know by the
way you were asking me
questions but
just honestly I just look I
have no
problem are you getting out I
think you
know the president can come you
do
however you want
I just think I wish you know
you're
perching prosecutors who
actually who
are no longer in the in in
government
but you know prosecutors are
important
in our system and you are going
after
the very basis of our justice
system
which has plenty of problems
but but you
know part of the thing is you
got out
you do have an obligation to at
least
admit what you did wrong and
you refuse
to do that and you're creating
a whole
new alternate universe of facts
and that
may be big in politics today
but it's
still frankly just bullshit
example shit
I lived it myself it's not so
Anderson
is now the hero of prosecutors
hero of
the jumpa state you have to be
reminded
that had a
slew of people on death row and
two or
three young journalists I
happen to know
one of them went in there as a
project I
think at the University Eleanor
one of
the schools and they discovered
that all
these cases were all bullcrap
two cases
and a judge had to release a
ton of
people from the Illinois prison
system
for the phony-baloney
prosecutions that
were all all crooked ah so this
is why
oh of course I've got to
protect those
guys let's not drag anything up
it's
quite disappointing
although fine just find it
fascinating
and I give you ten points I
forgive you
I'll give you clip of the day
for that
oh you're just you're just
trying to
make me feel good what can I
tell ya
cottonmouth it's like I'm sorry
take a
drink of I've been drinking
decaf coffee
from a plastic machine yes
exactly and
all you can do it did not
commit a rape
but you can just call me out on
smacks
smacks it's a Smackdown so that
was that
was that's was a phenomenal set
except
well I got a phenomenal set of
clips too
okay this one I went to your
beat I
start which I decided to step
over there
that's okay now we didn't play
this I
don't think
but it's so outrageous that I
don't know
how we couldn't have played it
this is
the Asajj deal and call me it's
fairly
new nobody's covering this
except Oh a n
shine by the way find it
offensive what
that Oh Ian does it or that's
the only
one that both killed by Comey
in 2018
the hill reporter that FBI
director
james comey directly intervened
to kill
wikileaks his immunity deal
Assange is
legal team had reached out to
the Trump
administration to strike a deal
in
January 2017 and cut this deal
with the
US government
Assange offered to not release
the CIA's
vault 7 and was willing to
discuss
