John C Dvorak: They are freaked
out. Adam curry Jhansi Devorah
Adam Curry: 2023 This is your
award winning nation media
assassination episode 1613. This
is no agenda, watching.
broadcasting live from the heart
of the Texas hill country here
in FEMA Region number six in the
morning, everybody. I'm Adam
curry
John C Dvorak: and from Northern
Silicon Valley where everybody's
saying the same thing. Go
Niners. I'm John C. Dvorak.
Unknown: Buzzkill.
Adam Curry: Nobody's saying
that. Oh, yeah. Nobody cares
about us all they say nobody's
watching football anymore. Have?
No.
John C Dvorak: So here's the
question for you. Oh, and ask
Adam or just a regular old guy
just had Miss asking a random
question. So I'm listening to
all these different shows. And I
heard this on the rising and I
heard on different networks. And
it goes on and on about the
death of Sandra Day O'Connor and
Henry Kissinger, the two of them
and she's all she's the best.
Yeah, Henry Kissinger was he's
the worry miss. He's the worst
famous guy but he's the worst.
He killed millions. And he's a
war criminal. Yes, sir. When was
this? When did he kill millet?
When did he kill anybody?
Adam Curry: though? Yeah. Well,
John C Dvorak: why is he a war
criminal? What did he do it? Did
he specifically do? Do you know?
Because I tried looking at it. I
Adam Curry: do I do. He died
while being Jewish. at the wrong
moment. This is the wrong
moment. This is what happened.
That could be we need you know,
Ilan is kind of getting away
with it. You know, he's like,
he's making problems for
everybody. It's like, we need
another Jew to blame. There's no
better Jew to blame that the
dead Jew who can't defend
himself. Come on. It's obvious
anything to keep the genocide Jo
stuff out of the way. Anything.
And they're going after
everybody. This was this was
hilarious. This is Hillary
Clinton. I even know where she's
walking. And there's protesters
be up there they are the
Palestinian flags.
Hillary, Hillary You can't hide
your supporting genocide.
John C Dvorak: What did Hillary
do exist?
Adam Curry: It just existed
existed?
John C Dvorak: I mean, it's not
even Jewish that I know. No,
Adam Curry: but but she's super
listen. This is so off the hook.
This is exactly the
counterbalance we needed in the
world to have any of the people
who have been abused by the
elites, namely children for the
longest time to turn on them and
they don't know what to do. And
now this is so beautiful.
Turkish radio and television
Yeah, they get on to Tik Tok and
they got these cute young women
who are you know, even on even
on their the Turkish Radio
Television homepage, these
videos are filmed in portrait
mode, because they're intended
for tick tock but they don't
even go on television, but they
try and get them to go viral.
And this is the kind of what you
thought Elon Musk was, was had a
problem No, no, no, no.
Unknown: Oh are famous global
brands involved in Israel's war
on Palestine Gaza, these brands
directly helps the Israeli
economy and Israel economy is
the fuel that feeds its military
and allows it to bomb Gaza and
carry out the genocide against
the Palestinian people.
Adam Curry: So the idea is these
brands. Because they do business
in or with Israel, they are
fueling the genocide. The
Unknown: world's leading brands
reach nearly every household
around the globe. It is
difficult to find a home in
which at least one of these
brands is not present. In 2022.
Alone, these three companies
earn more than $200 billion
Procter and Gamble has been part
of the Israel market since 2001.
Procter
Adam Curry: and Gamble has
almost all they've been part of
the Procter and Gamble is a what
we call an F M. C. G, fast
moving consumer goods company.
Yeah, paper towels soap. Bah,
no, they're fueling they're
fueling the genocide. Now.
Unknown: They have gained
attention with a significant
multi million dollar investments
in Israeli medical companies and
research centers. This brand is
so popular in Israel that it is
found in 98% of Israeli
households, famous luxury brand
we return. They invested
millions of dollars in Israeli
diamond production companies,
which are the cornerstone of the
Israeli economy.
Adam Curry: I didn't know that
diamond production was the
cornerstone of the Israeli
economy. Did you know that?
Well, I
John C Dvorak: think he did a
thing that was recently done as
Russia yeah Russia,
Unknown: they are linked to the
sale of Israeli ahava products
that are produced in the
occupied Palestinian
territories. The owner of Louis
Vuitton is known for having made
significant investments in
Israel's security companies
amounting to hundreds of
millions
Adam Curry: of dollars. We
futon, Louie, you're a problem.
Unknown: Next up is hp.
According to the BDS movement,
in addition to supplying
technology to the Israeli army
and police, HP,
Adam Curry: Microsoft is next.
I'm telling you, anything if you
do business with Israel, you're
going to be boycotted.
John C Dvorak: I'm gonna give a
slightly different angle on
this, okay? Because there's
something suspicious about the
way this is being done. And the
end result is what I saw today,
I was watching little previews
of some new football and they
brought cut to a Bud Light
commercial. In the Bud Light
commercials a bar full of dudes
headed with Peyton Manning, the
old time spokesperson for ex
football players, Emmitt Smith
and some other hot shots. They
have to pay these guys a
fortune, he goes to the bar
orders Bud Light. And he says,
I'll tell you what, let's have
Bud Light for the whole bar. So
you buy the bar and Peyton
Manning is throwing passes of
the Kate with the cam, which
cans you can do with. And so
he's going to end this but they
had to pay this guy a boatload
of money to do this. And this,
all of this is going to result
in heavy advertising to make up
for the bad press. This seems
almost like it's orchestrated by
the media itself to extract more
money from these poor companies
in advertising. Interesting.
Adam Curry: Interesting. Yeah,
yeah. It's the what's the the
opposite of UFC, the Dana
White's outfit? Yeah, they also
have a huge, like 100 million
dollar deal or something with
Bud Light.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, it's
costing nothing but money,
certainly get back on track. And
that's going to be the same
proctor going after Procter and
Gamble. I mean, who's really
behind this? This means they're
going to have to advertise more
than before bonanza.
Adam Curry: Okay, I'll take your
point. I mean, there's there's
certainly jumping on it. But
Hillary Clinton can't
John C Dvorak: do something if
your brand has been be
submerged. Here you go. What can
you do about you can go to the
editors and say, Hey, you guys
are hurt our feelings. You know,
we didn't do anything wrong. We
just do the stories the way they
go here. Once you talk to this
guy.
Adam Curry: This guy is brown
shoes. Talk to him for a moment.
He'll take care of you. I take
that as a good point. I'll take
that as a fair point. Fair
point. Well, I would like to
start today because it dawned on
me after hearing Prince Charles
speak at COP 28. And I know you
got a couple of clips as well.
I'm going to lead you into them
that all this the World Economic
Forum, they're gonna do the
great reset. That is bull crap.
These guys there, get it. I
don't know if they'll do it was
cop 28 Or if it's going to be
cop 29. But they are coming for
you. They are coming for your
money. They're coming with a
global carbon tax. They're
changing the quote unquote,
global financial system. Their
pricing carbon. They're all in
there getting closer and it kind
of hit me when I heard. This is
something you won't hear at the
at the World Economic Forum.
Klaus Schwab. Give me a break.
Now when when you address this
audience like this, Your
Unknown: Highness, Secretary
General, Your Majesty is your
royal highnesses, presidents,
prime ministers, Ministers,
Ladies and Gentlemen.
Adam Curry: ratul your jewels
please.
Unknown: I would like to extend
our that's a great
Adam Curry: clip. Because I mean
this these are the people who
make stuff happen. They make
things happen. Not
John C Dvorak: call you and your
royal highness. Yes, yes, your
Adam Curry: Excellency
Unknown: ministers ladies and
gentlemen. I would like to
extend my heartfelt gratitude to
His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin
Zayed. I'm not sure
Adam Curry: this is not you
know, the Saudis weren't royal
until until the 70s. You know,
they were better when sheep
farmers have now Oh, Your
Highness Your royalty. Thank you
Unknown: so much for his warm
invitation to speak to you at
the opening of cop 28. Eight
years ago, I was most touched to
be asked to speak at the opening
of cop 21 in Paris. I was so
touched, which of course
culminated in the Paris
Agreement. A landmark moment of
hope and optimism. When nations
put differences to one side for
the common good, I pray with all
my hearts that cop 28 will be
another critical turning point
towards genuine transformational
action. That's a time when
already, as scientists have been
warning for so long. Oh, we are
seeing alarming tipping points
being reached. Tipping
John C Dvorak: points. Yes,
alarm by the way isn't. He says
eight years ago, but isn't it
seven years ago when it's cop
21. You have kept 21 and 22 to a
three to a four to five to six
by 727 years ago. It's not eight
years ago.
Adam Curry: Well, that's muted.
Okay. Who cares? Who can I do?
Let's get to the music. They
John C Dvorak: can't do the math
of just going back eight years
or seven years? How can they
tell us what's gonna happen with
the climate 100 years from now?
Well,
Adam Curry: he does. You're
right. You're correct. 4
trillion 5 trillion. small
difference public finance
Unknown: alone will never be
sufficient. No. With the private
sector firmly on the table.
John C Dvorak: So companies in
the public?
Adam Curry: Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
This is coming. This is coming
firmly at the table. What?
John C Dvorak: I say yeah, it
might be coming. But it hasn't
come yet. You can still fight
it.
Unknown: The international
financial system, combined with
the innovative use of risk
reduction tools like first loss
risk guarantees
Adam Curry: stop. What
John C Dvorak: is he talking
about?
Adam Curry: I looked it up with
that you did with tools, tools
tools, like who's
Unknown: like first loss risk
guarantees first loss
Adam Curry: risk guarantees.
This is a type of insurance.
First loss policy is a type of
property insurance policy that
provides only partial insurance
in the event of a claim the
policyholder agrees to accept an
amount less than the full value
of a damaged, destroyed or
stolen
John C Dvorak: property. And
what's the benefit in that
Adam Curry: in return, the
insurer agrees not to penalize
the policyholder for under
insuring their goods or
property. So I'm not exactly
sure Wait a minute. I'm not
exactly sure. But there's
something and we have enough
boots on the ground people who
can explain to me how they're
using this insurance clear
insurance scam. By just don't
know how it works yet, but
they're gonna use this somehow
to soak everybody. They for him
to say this sums up.
John C Dvorak: I agree. You
don't bring something like this
in out of the blue to a
conference like this? And stated
as some sort of tool?
Unknown: Oh, yeah. We
could mobilize the trillions of
dollars, we need how many in the
order of four and a half to 5
trillion a year to drive the
transformation a year?
A year?
Adam Curry: A year? A year? Four
and a half to 5 trillion. Isn't
that? Isn't that the GDP of the
United States? I think that's
where it's, I mean, it's is that
a coincidence? The
John C Dvorak: entire GDP a
year, our entire economy per
year? Watch?
Adam Curry: Well, it's let's get
you to listen. Second,
Unknown: how could we ensure
that finance flows to those
developments are most essential
to a sustainable future? But
Adam Curry: first of all, we set
up businesses in Africa, and we
just wait for the money boat to
come in. And we then we pretend
we're helping the black people
in Africa da
Unknown: and away from practices
that make our world more
dangerous.
Adam Curry: Yes, yes. Dangerous
to me, because they will want to
cue me if I'm still in the West,
across
Unknown: every industry in every
part of the world. Yeah, I have,
for instance, been heartened by
some of the steps taken by parts
of the insurance sector, which
plays such a vital role in
incentivizing more sustainable
approaches, and providing an
invaluable source of investment
to reduce the risks we face
Adam Curry: okay, I think that
they're gonna run the money
through insurance companies,
insurance companies are just
banks based not not anything
special. Right is just the bank
and that they get a claim that
what insurance companies
typically do is no, you don't
you know, I'm not gonna pay you.
That's the first thing they say.
Um, so I think that that somehow
they are going to run the money
through the insurance companies.
I'm not quite sure how yet, but
the first thing that has to
happen was addressed by Queen
Ursula, who is not the queen of
the dancing scene in this one.
She only got a short little bit
on the big stage and then manchi
she had a She had her own little
side session which I mean the
audience even said i The audio
is no good. And I couldn't even
clip it. It was so bad. So she
was completely marginalized in
this but she came and she said
what she supposedly
John C Dvorak: what she did
wrong that would this would have
she she
Adam Curry: is a failed
politician from Germany. Her job
is to do what they tell her to
do. And they said you Ursula,
make sure you focus on the one
point and drive it home. The
future
Unknown: of energy will be
clean, it will be affordable,
and it will be homegrown,
homegrown fuel, and finally on
finance, we must meet the 100
billion target this year, Europe
consistently delivered last year
the European Union contributed
close to $30 billion in public
climate finance and of course
the European Union will
contribute to the new loss and
damage fund
Adam Curry: loss and damage for
I'm telling you, John, there's
doing something here. It's about
insurance. It's this loss and
damage. It's first loss
policies. Something going on
today.
Unknown: Team Europe, this
Adam Curry: country team Europe.
Wait a minute, what's his team
Europe all of a sudden, I did a
Unknown: soccer game loss and
damaged font. As of today. Team
Europe is contributing more than
$270 million so far. We must get
the fund up
Adam Curry: 4 trillion No, no,
this is just this year this year
team Europe is behind they must
work harder team Europe million
70 million is nothing oh there's
nothing that's that's horrible
so
Unknown: far. We must get the
fund up and running. And we were
asked to do it,
Adam Curry: too. They're doing a
green of fun. This is the first
loss policy firm they're going
to do greened bonds. But
Unknown: we all know more is
needed. We need to reform the
international financial system
Adam Curry: because we need a
carbon tax
Unknown: we need a strong green
bond market green bond market
and we need more carbon pricing
ladies and gentlemen thank you
dear friends I wish for a
successful cop 28 Many things
Adam Curry: There you go. We
need more carbon pricing carbon
pricing so we can know exactly
how much to tax you if you
pollute then you will pay a tax
and that somehow goat we wash
that through the insurance
companies and we sit in Africa
and we steal it from you I
cannot see any other way these
are the evil people of the world
they have been captured and and
we're so we've been so hammered
by this incessant climate change
that even the people with
reasonable thought patterns like
well you know when was climate
change and that just it's just a
thing it's hard for anyone to
say no this is not true in
Germany the as they're getting
ready to fly their privates no
evidence that it was really
flying their private jets but
regardless, cop 28 starts the
world is boiling and Munich sees
sees 44 inches of snow which
they haven't seen ever it's
record snowfall the planes can
take a day have a clip. Oh good
let's play did you get to the UK
also is is completely snowed
under no weather. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: weather Bavarian
blizzard. It's
Unknown: called and a Bavarian
Blizzard has dropped record snow
amounts on much of Germany,
Austria, the Czech Republic and
Switzerland. The storm knocked
out power to 1000s installed
travel across the region,
grounding flights, varying
highways and forcing mass
transit to close
Adam Curry: to more clips, and
I'm gonna lead right into your
clips because I seen the title.
So I know more or less what
you're going to do. The first
thing is we have to play
something by the United Nations
Secretary General who is a
troll. He was a troll. He might
even be wearing a wig this guy.
He's a little troll. And he
always cracks me up with his
pronunciation of things. On
purpose. I don't know that well,
maybe maybe it's day
Unknown: two at COP 28 in Dubai
and the Coolster urgent action
continue.
We cannot save a burning planet.
Here fire hose planet. You're
missing the beauty action
continue. We cannot save a
burning planet here firehose of
fossil fuels.
Adam Curry: We cannot save a
burning planet with a firehose
of fossil fuels. Fossil fuels is
what it is your fossil fuels
your firehose
Unknown: of fossil fuels. We
must accelerate a just equitable
transition to renewables.
renewables. The science is
clear. The
Adam Curry: science is clear.
It's clear, it's clear
Unknown: the science is clear.
The 1.5 degree limits is only
possible if we ultimately
stopped burning fossil fuels
stop
Adam Curry: burning the fossil
fuels. Stop it. But it's not
going to stop with fossil fuels.
No, it's going to go to fossil
food.
Unknown: Fossil fuels normally
get the most attention at the
annual climate summit. But on
Friday, there was a breakthrough
on another crucial part of
tackling climate change what we
eat we're hating 30 countries,
including the US EU because you
Adam Curry: can even hear the
bug sound effect in the report.
You hear the crickets in the
report. It's this is subliminal,
they're giving you cricket
sounds because that's what
you'll be given to eat what
Unknown: we eat more than 130
countries including the US, EU,
Brazil and China have signed an
agreement aiming to make food
production more sustainable.
First agreements of its kind and
could be a very important one
food system is responsible for
1/3 of greenhouse gas emissions
and 15% of fossil fuel with huge
amounts of food wasted in some
countries, weightless,
overconsumption of industrially
produced meat and processed, no
meat. For many campaigners,
small scale farmers and local
communities are a key part of
the solution.
Adam Curry: key part of the
solution so they've signed some
deal. We don't know what it is,
but I'm gonna guess bitsbox And
then we have our vice president
because if you're going to have
queen, Ursula, you might as well
bring in Queen Cavalia.
Unknown: Around the world there
are those who seek to slow or
stop our progress, like
podcasters leaders who deny
climate science, delay climate
action, and spread
misinformation podcasters
corporations that greenwash
climate inaction and lobby for
billions of dollars in fossil
fuel subsidies in the face of
their resistance. And in the
context of this moment, we must
do more. Yeah,
here's also announced the US is
pledging $3 billion to the Green
Climate Fund. The International
Fund is dedicated to supporting
climate action in developing
countries. And the Biden
administration outline plans
today to reduce us methane
emissions. The CBC, Susan
Ormiston is in Dubai with more
on the progress being made.
Adam Curry: I'm gonna stop it
here because I saw that you had
methane clips. So when that
popped up, and of course, you
understand these things, you
know, a lot about few fuels,
fossil fuels, fools fools, from
your time in the government as
a, as a horrible
John C Dvorak: in the
administrative state. deep state
you are in a deep state, you're
gonna do nothing. So first,
let's go back to this nonsense
about and I maybe maybe there's
something I don't know. But this
idea of they always keep using
this this. Paris said in there
about oil subsidies, yes.
Governments that what what
subsidies what, what what are
they? What are these subsidies
for the oil industry?
Adam Curry: If I recall, there
is and it's not just for oil
companies, there is a US
production tax benefit.
John C Dvorak: There's an oil
depletion allowance. What's the
big tax break? What is that? I
haven't asked I buy an oil well,
it's worth a million dollars
because it's a million dollars.
But as I pump the oil out, it
becomes slowly worthless. I get
an oil depletion allowance a tax
benefit for that because now
that now my asset has become
worth nothing. After I pumped
all the unsold all the oil,
Adam Curry: you get to
depreciate your million dollar
initial investment.
John C Dvorak: I don't know how
what the exact how the math
works, but it's but that's I
think what they're always
talking about. And of course, if
you eliminate that, it's not
going to stop anything. It's
just going to jack up the price
of gasoline, which
Adam Curry: now is 275 for
regular here in Texas so we can
handle survive 50
John C Dvorak: By the way, the
curious thing about our being
550. It's also an oil production
state, we produce oil in this
state. The good news is we have
most of the refineries in this
state
Adam Curry: Wednesday, I'm
having dinner with oil baron, so
I'll get a full breakdown of
exactly this topic. Good because
he has oil well. So that'll be
easy, dude, what's your tax
benefit? He'll tell me. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: I'll tell you.
And it's probably a pretty good
deal. I mean, that's one of the
reasons it was done to encourage
people to get this oil audit.
May I remind
Adam Curry: you, oil baron,
okay. Yeah, I bet it's a pretty
good deal.
John C Dvorak: So let's go to
cop 28. I think we'll go with
the first we'll start with the
Harris stuff. I have this top 21
Harris PBS at
Unknown: the United Nations cop
28 climate conference in Dubai.
Vice President head HARRIS
pledged $3 billion toward a
global fund to help poor nations
adapt to climate change. The
United States also committed to
doubling energy efficiency and
tripling the use of renewable
energy by 2030. Harris said the
time for action is now
the urgency of this moment is
clear. The clock is no longer
just ticking, it is banging, its
binding and we must make up for
lost time. And we must treat the
climate crisis as the
existential threat that is truly
Adam Curry: who says banging,
banging. The clock is banging,
banging She's no she was very
explicit on the banking is yes,
she said banking. I wanted to
say banking. What is what is
that banking? Banking banking is
what
John C Dvorak: she's got that
she's had some she has some
South Asian. Buried in there.
That's okay. All right. banking,
banking, banking. Okay, we wrap
that that's wrapped. Yes, she
wrap up. Okay. Was she going
away, guys? So let's go to cop
22 methane coming in. I have
kept 28 to methane because I
gotcha. I gotcha.
Unknown: Officials also
announced a major new initiative
aimed at getting methane
emission to near zero by 2030.
Adam Curry: Okay, now methane
emission. What I know one part
of methane is burning off your
your gas wells is that he's
talking about that in this case
or something else? It's
John C Dvorak: hard to say what
they're talking mostly about
refineries leaking. And
California's methane. No,
they're not talking about the
about the cow. It's mostly
belches. It turns out Oh, okay.
Because they're ruminants and a
belch the methane out of their
mouth. The problem with this
whole thing, and I'll put this
right up front, is that natural
gas is methane. They won't say
natural gas. They just keeps
saying methane, methane. So you
can't I mean, if you turn your
stove on, you're mad leaking
methane all over the place. It's
methane. Got it. That's natural
gases. 97% methane. So when this
is a, this is a roundabout way,
this whole methane thing is a
roundabout way. And I would say
a chickenshit way of getting rid
of gas stoves, gas furnaces and
gas heaters. You know, it's a
shame that Boone Pickens isn't
still alive because he was the
big promoter of natural gas as
an alternative to to liquid
petroleum products. And he would
throw a bunch of money at this
nonsense and end it right now
because you can't do what they
want to do without getting rid
of your gas stoves. So they
don't want to talk about it.
Well, no. Gas No, Donna. No,
this just trying to stop. This
is very nice. I guess this is
not about gas.
Adam Curry: This is very
interesting. This is a scam.
Because the total scam anything
people are very aware of the war
on gas stoves. You know, then
John C Dvorak: everyone denies
it. No, no, no, we're not doing
that. That's not true.
Adam Curry: Yeah, but but now
they've just done a little
switcheroo and they just call it
methane or dare I say methane in
the UK. He has me say anything.
And but they're lying. They're
lying. They're really saying No
more No more cheap energy
because methane gas natural gas
is quite affordable. I think
it's quite sick or am I not?
It's quite safe.
John C Dvorak: Well in this it
accumulates in a house completed
and in some of the lights a
match. It's a Yeah, it's safe.
It's safe compared to around
been around for longer than
hydrogen lessons.
Adam Curry: Yes, I agree. All
right. So we have to get rid of
it. Got it. So
John C Dvorak: that but this is
this is exactly what you said
it's a scam. And here we go. And
I just most this is the methane
series. Now this is cop 28
methane one
Unknown: at the cop 28 summit in
Dubai today. 50. Oil and gas
companies representing about 40%
of global production pledged to
reduce methane emissions to near
zero by 2030. Methane is a
byproduct of oil and gas
production that can trap 80
times as much heat as carbon
dioxide in the short term. The
companies including industry
giants, like Exxon Mobil, shell
and BP say they'll achieve this
by plugging leaks at their
facilities and ending the
practice of burning off excess
gas with flares. The same time
the Biden administration
announced new rules to enforce
major elements of that agreement
in this country.
Adam Curry: Ah, there it is.
There's your war on gas stoves.
John C Dvorak: Now a couple of
things in this clip. He says
that ADT Muluzi at methane's at
x In terms of greenhouse gas
emissions at x co2, yeah, but
how come this hasn't been
addressed before? While it was
You were always talking about
carbon, carbon, carbon, carbon
and referring to co2, co2 co2,
which is a parts per million
thing in the atmosphere. It's
hardly anything right. But they
keep talking about it. But
meanwhile, methane, why now?
Doesn't
Adam Curry: have very low carbon
dioxide emission? What I'm
sorry, does burn, does burning
natural gas have a low as
John C Dvorak: lower than
burning? Coal? Yeah, that's what
T. Boone Pickens was always
doing. Always thought, yeah,
Lauren Cole or a lot of
Adam Curry: stuff. So it's not a
good narrative. And also, well,
John C Dvorak: this ADX is a raw
This is raw methane going into
the atmosphere, right. And then
then the East says that and they
refineries are getting down to
refineries. One thing that's
never mentioned is methane is a
product they sell as natural
gas. They don't want it leaking
all over the place. They're
giving away product. It's like,
it's like letting the wine
barrel overfill and go into down
the sewer. Right? This is not
what they want. So this is in
the best interests of the of the
oil refineries to plug any leaks
there are so that so they're all
always for that. So this is not
a concession by any means.
Because they want to do this
because they're big lose money,
otherwise, maybe so this is
bullcrap this narrative, well,
how
Adam Curry: about this? Or maybe
they're like, Yeah, that's good.
Give us some more subsidies so
we can plug up.
John C Dvorak: I believe that's
in the back.
Adam Curry: Is there is there
also not an element of F Russia
in all of this? Since Russia has
a lot of restaurant? Yes.
John C Dvorak: I didn't think of
that. But that's obviously the
case. Yeah. And so you have that
aspect. And the other thing is,
is in in, the refiners are going
to try to stop flaring so much.
Natural gas when it gets into
the system, and they had to get
rid of it. They sent it to the
flare. But when it gets burned
in the flare, it gets burned.
There's no natural gas coming
off that flame. So that's bull
crap. And that's just bullcrap.
I was just
Adam Curry: just okay. laughter
Okay, Okay, gotcha. Okay. He's
both practical.
John C Dvorak: But again, I
think the whole thing is about
the stoves but let's go with
methane too. Earlier,
Unknown: I spoke with Fred
Krupp, the president of the
Environmental Defense Fund, who
was at COP 28. I asked about
what makes this deal so
important. John,
I've been at this for a long
time. And in my 30 plus years of
doing this work, I don't think
we've ever had as good a day for
the climate as we had today. We
had the US EPA announcing the
strongest methane rules for the
oil and gas sector on the
planet. Second, we had 50
companies representing 40% of
global oil production, pledging
to virtually eliminate their
methane pollution. And then
third, we saw an announcement
from the US and China that
they've agreed to incorporate
methane in the future into their
pledges internationally. And
methane, John is 80 times more
powerful as a greenhouse gas
than carbon dioxide pound for
pound in those first 20 years.
And so reductions now that will
happen as a result of these
three actions mean that storms
will be less ferocious, will be
lower than they would otherwise
be over the next 10 years.
Thanks to the actions that were
pledged today. Storms
Adam Curry: will be less
ferocious at the weatherman
John C Dvorak: over the next 10
years because it is one action
which is meaningless as
meaningless action which isn't
going to do jack until they get
rid of this stoves and heaters.
But now, here's the problem.
They had like the hurricane
season just ended. What was the
big massive hurricane on the
East Coast that took out like
half of a state and killed
millions. was the big storm this
year. Yeah, carry
Adam Curry: on. Well, there was
a bad storm on the little piece
of Florida on the Gulf side,
interestingly. But it didn't
take out millions. It
John C Dvorak: wasn't like the
big stores. We'd like Katrina.
No, no, which was, if you
recall, when Katrina happened,
this was going to be the
standard of excellence every
year and it's gonna get worse
and worse. What was this year's
big storm was that little storm
you're talking about? But this
was
Adam Curry: this is the problem.
The problem is people don't look
at history. They're not taught
history. They're told to just
oh, just listen, listen to me.
Listen to me, this is the worst
and it's coming from our so
called leaders so people go
okay, because people have other
things to do like figure out how
to pay the rent. Now
John C Dvorak: let's go back to
this guy and he has commentary.
This is right here. What he said
is meaningless methane bull
crap. In which isn't going to do
jack is going to be used as
well. We says we passed this
this is the big deal. We passed
it a cup 28 and looked at we
didn't have so many hurricanes
is already starting to clear up
a little bit they need because
the cycle that the weather
cycles based on sunspots is, is
switching on to the other one's
going down the other way. And
they've got to come up with some
reason quick, a quick, real
quick fix. And this guy just
told you what it was.
Adam Curry: They need the quick
fix so they can then take credit
for it. Yeah, see, storms are
less temperatures coming down
days to us. We foam finger
number one, everybody. That's
right. So we can predict in 10
years, that everything will be
much calmer. It'll be cold, it'd
be cold, it's gonna be cold.
It's gonna get cold, right?
We're gonna get very cold,
everybody. Maybe, maybe, maybe
that's what King Charles meant
by tipping point where the
tipping point people, tipping
points, your tipping point and a
tipping point is that
temperatures are going down?
Everything's going down? Because
with the sun cycle, what is it?
What cycle is I forget that they
they number them? Every 11
years? It goes to the to the Sun
cycle. I know what is a ham
operator, you know these things?
So that we're going down to the
bottom of the cycle? I think we
have two more years left and
then it's over. And then well,
we did it. We did it everybody.
We're in Africa now send us our
trillions in he was in
John C Dvorak: his or trillion
so we can make sure we don't do
we don't backtrack. Exactly.
Okay, methane, three. And
Unknown: is this a long term
solution to the problem? Is this
a sort of short term quick fix?
Well, we have to both do methane
to reduce temperatures in the
short term, and we cannot stop
working. In fact, we have to
accelerate our work on
eliminating carbon dioxide. The
oil and gas industry took this
one step. But they have to do a
lot more than this, we have to
move away from laughing Reliance
or dependency on fossil. Let's
listen again, the oil and gas
industry took this one step. But
they have to do a lot more than
this. We have to move away from
reliance or dependency on fossil
fuels as quickly as we can. But
while we're still using them, we
have to eliminate this very
powerful greenhouse gas method.
Adam Curry: Okay, so from the
National Weather Surface,
Surface service surface
Unknown: surface mirror surface
surface, we
Adam Curry: are two years away
from the top of Sun solar cycle
25. The peak will be expected
solar maximum July 2025. So
there's that's the peak of solar
cycle 25. So that's, that's why
the hurry up.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, buy some
panicky thing we can do. Yeah.
All right, here we go. Is the
last of these clips, this
Unknown: agreement is voluntary.
The oil companies have to do
what they what they promised to
do. And a lot of environmental
groups don't like that. They
said there's no accountability
mechanism or guarantee the
companies will follow through.
What do you say to that.
But I think it's good to be
skeptical of pledges at the COP.
A lot of pledges that have been
made at this Conference of the
Parties year after year aren't
delivered on in this particular
pledge. We structured it to have
accountability built in. So the
oil and gas companies are
agreeing to report their
emissions by monitoring,
monitoring them and then sending
them to an international
independent third party. In
addition to that, the Bloomberg
Philanthropies today announced a
major $25 million gift to not
only the Environmental Defense
Fund, but it will stand up and
accountability partnership that
will make data transparent. And
so we'll be able to see exactly
who is meeting this pledge and
who's not.
Adam Curry: So oh, I've heard it
four times. Now the
Environmental Defense Fund.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, that's this
guy. He's the head of it.
Adam Curry: But is this well? Is
that a global thing?
John C Dvorak: I think to
American seems like 9013 C,
whatever it
Adam Curry: is, seems like it's
New York based. Might be founded
in 1967. So yeah, that's good.
Yeah, it
John C Dvorak: was founded
during the it was that was
founded at if I'm not mistaken.
The Environmental Defense Fund
was founded during the heyday of
anti pollution, real pollution,
Ed evety
Adam Curry: 1967, a group of
scientists formed the
organization sets out to ban
DDT.
John C Dvorak: Oh, is the DDT?
That's right, it was a DDT that
came out of Rachel Carson's best
seller, Silent Spring, which had
which is really about DDT,
Adam Curry: that and then in
1970, it was efforts to ban
whale hunting. Remember that
one? Which was an attack on
Japan as far as I can remember?
Yeah, horrible Japanese Japanese
killing whales. Um, I got this
one minute 22 second clip. I got
this from, and it's a brief
history. Like, before
John C Dvorak: you go, I wanted
to comment on the less. Yeah. So
this I just wanted this as a
refinery story having worked at
a refinery in the lab and I this
is I don't think they're evil by
any means. I like refiners. I
think they're all great, but I'm
just this is the way reporting
goes, we have to do a monthly
coliform test of the effluent
that comes off of the refinery,
water supply, and it goes and
you get a sample and you do this
blood test. And it's for it's
called coliform. And it's a type
of bacteria. It's a bacterial
test. And if it shows up, that
means you got contamination in
the water that's going into the
San Francisco Bay. And it would
go like this. And it which means
there's sewage, and there's I
don't know how it even gets in
there, but it will get in there.
And it's a little elaborate test
is kind of a pain in the ass.
It's got nothing to do with the
refinery at all, but you have to
do this test. So you do the
test. And you do this test once
a month, I think as I recall,
and you do the test once a month
and you do the test and it goes
oh shit, we got coliform. And
then you go, well, or somebody
somebody says, Okay, we'll do
the test tomorrow. Yeah,
yesterday came out, okay. Okay,
send that one in.
Adam Curry: Oh, you see, just
take whatever's handy.
John C Dvorak: This is you take
the test that passes. Nice. And
that's how you do it. And I'm
not, no one's going to convince
me that that's not the way it's
done everywhere by everybody.
Because it's like bull crap test
to begin with. Because in fact,
you take the test every day of
the month, and it would be 90 or
90 by the 25 days of no problem.
And then maybe it's a day in
there. So it's kind of like
doesn't happen.
Adam Curry: It's kind of like a
COVID test. So the Environmental
Defense Fund, indeed, a 501. C
three. Yeah. How much do you
think they were given in 2022?
According to their form,
990 $100 million? How about 385
million? I have 452 million in
assets. You know, because they
play the stock market, of
course. And their mission is to
build a vital Earth for
everyone. By leveraging
environment, oceans health,
environment, health, public
health, children, leveraging
children. Fine. Here's a brief
history of this cop outfit
because it started a long time
ago. And we're still not dead.
Unknown: General Boutros Ghali,
the Earth Summit in Rio was the
first time that more than 100
heads of states and governments
gathered together in one room to
talk climate, establishing
sustainable development as a
basis for international
cooperation. At least in theory,
the world is our garden, and
together, we must cultivate it.
Five
years later, the Kyoto Protocol
was signed, develop countries
pledged to reduce their
greenhouse gas emissions by at
least 5% Compared to 1990
levels. One big problem the
world's biggest emitters, the US
China and India were not bound
by the text. In 2009, the aim of
cop 15 in Copenhagen was an
international agreement to fight
climate change. The US and China
helped draft a last minute joint
statement, it was not widely
adopted. The 2015 edition in
France was considered a
resounding success. The Paris
Agreement was the first treaty
to commit the entire
international community to the
fight against climate change,
pledging to maintain the rise in
the global average temperature
to quote well below two degrees
compared to pre industrial
levels. signatories also agreed
to assess their efforts every
five years. Eight years on the
UN says much more must be done
to meet the goals set in Paris.
Adam Curry: So to just wrap this
part up, these are the real
people who are doing a an actual
slow, global reset. It is really
happening. They're going to
price carbon. Every action you
take as a human being it'll
start with businesses, the
businesses, they get some deal
I'm sure this insurance scam
somehow work. Someone's going to
tell us how that works.
Business, we'll get some
insurance. Now pay off, but
ultimately, it's going to come
from the individual humans that
you travel, you're gonna be
charged for your poop. Yes. How
much do you poop? That's right.
You're gonna be if you're a big
pooper, then sorry, Anderson
Cooper is going to be poor in
the future. As I was just going
to everything you do, there will
be a climate tax. That's why
they're pricing carbon and We
only have to look from Texas a
little bit up to the north to
see that this is in play in
Canada. And it was a and they're
joking about it. Do you ever
Trudeau and Paul Revere the two
sides of the political spectrum,
laughing about it now the what?
What happened here is they were
jamming a carbon tax into aid
for Ukraine, I believe, have the
John C Dvorak: right and the
classic and the conservatism
Adam Curry: of now. No, we're
not. We're not going to. We're
not going to pass this without
thinking that but it's all just
a big joke to them, denialism
Unknown: of the Conservative
Party of Canada is putting
future white Christmases at
risk. And that's why
Adam Curry: this is my favorite.
Dude. They've been writing since
2000. We weren't supposed to
have white Christmas and
certainly not in the UK. But
okay. You are threatening White
Christmas.
Unknown: Future White Christmas
is at risk. And that's why on
this side of the house
John C Dvorak: clown show to
clown show.
Unknown: Leader the opposition,
Mr. Speaker that has to be the
angriest and most cost to
Christmas message.
This is a guy he hasn't faced
though. Cool. Despite his
theatrics over there, Mr.
Speaker, what he's doing is
phasing out food because
Canadians can't afford it. Now
as he raises carbon taxes on the
wonderful farmers that bring us
bring it to our table. Why won't
he axe the tax on farmers so
that Canadians can eat heat and
houses themselves? And why
doesn't he be a little less like
Scrooge and a little more like
Santa Claus.
Adam Curry: So if we make it
another 10 years, I would say
sketchy likelihood at best. We
will be talking about bug
recipes on this very podcast,
because they're doing it. This
is the while we're all arguing
about Klaus Schwab. And I'll go
I like it's funny. The Klaus
Schwab songs and everything is
funny.
John C Dvorak: I love the Klaus
Schwab material. It's
Adam Curry: funny, but it's very
funny, but it's really the wrong
thing. These are the people and
this is huge. The amount of
people who are in these cop
meetings, and they're living it
up. I mean, they're flying
around the land
John C Dvorak: around in their
private hair came in there. Of
all places do buy which is a
long haul for anyone to go to
Adam Curry: a it's a great trip.
Pierre flew in special special
now to do everybody's hair.
Look, I know women and hair,
Queen Ursula his hair was done.
So be there. She had her
personal hairdresser fly with
her. Or Pierre was there waiting
for about a week she's actually
no no, no, this is no wig. This
is no wig. The you know, she I
believe may be responsible for a
huge, huge loss theft may be of
money with the Pfizer deals
which she did on her on her own
phone. Of course, you know, we
can't show those tax records. I
mean, there's no Yeah, exactly.
There's no record. These people
are stealing from our children's
future.
John C Dvorak: That's stealing
from our future. Our
Adam Curry: immediate future. We
don't have much future left and
they're stealing from it. That's
been me. Meanwhile, let's all
feel good by stories like
Unknown: this, and finally
tonight, the new technology that
could redefine what it means to
go electric. Here's Maggie
Vesper.
Adam Curry: By the way, nothing
funnier than having a reporter
work on climate change and
electrified cars whose name is
Vesper?
John C Dvorak: Are you getting
out the scooter? Yes, but really
Unknown: electric here's Maggie
Vesper.
on its list of claims to
automotive fame, okay, there we
go. Detroit can add America's
first electric Ave. The battery
was at 66% We've been driving a
few minutes and now it's at 68.
Exactly. A public road able to
wirelessly charge Evie batteries
as they drive over asphalt. The
technology is under our feet.
Like the surface of the road
literally. The secret rubber
coated copper coils embedded in
the road that correspond with a
special receiver under the
vehicle. The technology
developed by Israel based
electric Yan who touts similar
projects in several countries,
including Sweden, where NBCs
Kelly cobia got a look last
year. So we're being charged
right now we are being charged.
Tell me why this is safe. This
is safe. This system is only
active when you have a validated
rule. vehicle with the receiver
validated
the price tag for the projects
to ultimately cover one mile of
road just under $6 million,
according to state officials,
who say the costs will plummet
as they expand, and in the next
few years, licensed receivers to
the public. Could you see this
actually being used broadly?
I can, yes, we want to get rid
of this myth of range of
guidance. You want to know that
when you get to a location,
you're able to charge your
vehicle
Motor City once again, hoping to
lead the charge into America's
future.
Adam Curry: lead the charge.
Brilliant, brilliantly written I
tell you, let's go have a beer.
No.
John C Dvorak: 6 million. My
host problem in this country.
Here we can eliminate the even
the closest concept that that
concept is not doable. The
potholes will eat into the
charging grid that's under there
doesn't electrocute someone.
It's ludicrous.
Adam Curry: And the price is
obviously I mean, that's, it's
crazy, of course $6 million for
one mile. But and by that, and
that's you know, I'm sure. I'm
just going to guess you'd
John C Dvorak: have to have a
meter on your car, because
you're not going to give you the
electricity for free. And
Adam Curry: I'm just going to
guess that. I don't know, maybe
some venture capital company had
something to do with this. You
know, this is where this is
where your green where your
green money is going to. And you
know, right on cue with all of
this, and I have to give it to
him. Elon Musk is a dynamite
marketer. He's, he knows what
he's doing. I'm gonna go cause a
ruckus and go cause a ruckus.
And then the next day I'm going
to launch my cyber truck.
Unknown: After two years of
delays in production shrinks.
Tesla has finally handed the
first cyber trucks over to
customers. Tesla CEO Elon Musk
says it has an extra safety
feature. Why do you make it
bulletproof? I'm like, why? Do
you want to how tough is your
truck? Bulletproof he says Elon
Musk says the cheapest version
of cybertruck will cost just
under $61,000. That's more than
50% over the price Musk floated
when he announced the vehicle in
2019. Dude,
Adam Curry: we were supposed to
be able to have our Tesla's do
taxi service three years ago. If
I recall correctly,
John C Dvorak: yeah, he's a
great bullshit artist. Yes.
Adam Curry: But me he uses the
momentum and he comes out with
the cybertruck and ah, the
amount of just drooling over
this thing. Drooling I mean,
anything I knew we've
John C Dvorak: seen this truck
before and he bashed it with a
hammer and he made a dent and
Adam Curry: it wasn't a hammer.
It was a was a steel ball. And
it broke the window. The window
breakable window. Yeah.
John C Dvorak: So we know about
this truck is uglier than sin.
And there's a few floating
around. People have seen him on
the road. They're here in their
their prototypes, I guess. No.
But you know, this trucks going
nowhere. But yeah, he gets all
the publicity and ease and then
they keep following up because
they're looking for more stuff
about Elon, Elon, Elon, and
boom, you get this beautiful
Yeah, he's a genius.
Adam Curry: I have to give him
that. Now, there are some
transportation things that are
very much under attack. And the
first one is air travel. Now we
know that there's a shortage of
pilots we understand the issues
with unions keep striking. They
want more money, particularly
the cabin cabin crew and I'm not
talking about cockpit but cabin
crew. They really don't want you
as a human to have a nice time
flying around on vacation doing
business. They don't want it's
ugly. It's nasty. You know,
you're polluting the world. I
mean, they come up with stuff
like this.
Unknown: Sir Richard Branson was
in the mood to brag after making
history is 787 flew from London
to New York using 100%
Sustainable aviation. It's a
blend of process cooking oil,
animal fat and corn based
kerosene using 70% less carbon
than normal flights. But Branson
admits the fuel is in short
supply and it's expensive. So
there's a long way to go before
this is streamlined.
Adam Curry: It's never more
never going to happen. It's
never gonna
John C Dvorak: Of course I've
had caught it cost more. And by
the way, they have more
significant signal it cost a
fortune and it has been reversed
blind so it's like a pain in the
ass and is stinks when you burn
it.
Adam Curry: And it dirties the
engines is all kinds of stuff
that does not make this a great
deal at all, but Richard
Branson, another great marketer,
because that's really what he
is. He's a great marketer. Gotta
give him that he doesn't run
virgin. He sold that a decade
ago. And then the final one,
this has me somewhat concerned
although it runs right into our
trans Maoist agenda, where for
years, the Federal Aviation
Administration has only been
hiring a has only been has
actually forced airlines to hire
minorities qualified or not. And
now we're down to, I think an
actual crisis. I've been hearing
a lot about this and that's the
following story.
Unknown: Tonight disturbing new
allegations and questions about
the safety of American air
travel. That was shocking.
According to The New York Times
over the past two years,
multiple air traffic controllers
have been reported for falling
asleep on the job, others
allegedly directing traffic
under the influence of alcohol
and illegal drugs. The Times
reports one air traffic
controller showed up to work
drunk joking about making big
money bust, adding another
controller routinely smoked
marijuana during breaks dozens
of interviews and government
documents not reviewed by the
newspaper described overworked
at time struggling with mental
and physical health as 1000s of
controllers retire 77% of
critical ATC facilities are
understaffed. According to a
recent government report.
shortage is coming with serious
close calls at US airports also
under scrutiny. 23 This year
alone, the air traffic
controllers union writing the
article does not portray the
professionalism and skill with
which air traffic controllers
perform their complex and
stressful duties every day. But
both the union and FAA
acknowledged there are staffing
issues. Something the FAA says
it is working to fix with so
many lives at stake. Okay,
Adam Curry: so I don't know the
truth of it. But I hear from a
lot of ATC personnel and they
say we're pretty stressed. And I
would like to say I would like
to offer I don't know if being a
pilot gives me any advantage.
But if I can go train and pitch
in on the weekend I will I don't
smoke weed anymore. But I think
there's if you had a call out
said hey, we have a shortage.
But we'll accept everybody not
just gays, blacks and women
regardless of their of their
capability and ability. This
would not be a problem.
Americans like air travel. We
are an air travel country. So
I'm up for it. Then I'm I'm sure
many other pilots who have
private pilot's Yeah, we'll
pitch in. That's the American
way. Not this bullcrap. It's
It's so tiring the story so
tiring.
Unknown: It's good story.
Adam Curry: Yeah. All right now
there's been a debunking of a
debunking of something that was
debunked of a debunk
John C Dvorak: of a debunking of
a debunking of something we
didn't even cover because you in
particular, thought it was
bullshit to begin with.
Adam Curry: Yeah. So when I saw
this video, which is now many of
you probably seen this, the New
Zealand database admin
whistleblower? Yeah.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, that's
already a stretch already. Yes,
I
Adam Curry: looked at the video.
And I was like, you know, and I.
Now of course, I clipped a
minute of it, just so we can
talk about it. But initially, I
was like, this is not this is
not the whole thing had Bridey
on written all over it. Sorry. I
was thinking bit shoot,
Unknown: right? Well, I was
involved with building a project
helped with implementing a
vaccine payment system for our
providers. It's called Pay per
dose system. So that means that
every time someone gets
vaccinated, they get a payment
for it as a provider. I helped
build it, I implemented it. And
when I was looking at the data,
which is part of my job, I
noticed some discrepancies with
the dates of death people can
people dying within a week have
been vaccinated? So
what did you notice when you
first started to look at this
data as you were building it?
Well,
as soon as the system went live,
we noticed that people wouldn't
die almost straightaway after
being injected. So that sort of
prompted my curiosity. And so I
dug a little. I am a scientist
by nature. I love science.
That's my all time favorite.
I've got a I've got a master's
degree in science. So
John C Dvorak: I have a master's
degree in science. Wouldn't that
be bad? Would it be a Master of
Science? Would you have a
Master's of Science degree?
Yeah. What would you say? I've
got a Master's of Science
degree, you wouldn't get a
master's degree in science.
There was no such thing. It was
just no degree that you said,
masters that have just science.
It
Adam Curry: was stuff like this
that made me go and whatever
we'll see. We'll see what comes
of it. So I don't want to waste
anybody's time. We're not the
Tim Poole show, like well,
because first of all, I think we
already believe this. We already
believe that the vaccine has
caught was much despair. I don't
need to see any data per se, but
now it's a story. And then so
you send me a substack e Gore's
newsletter.
John C Dvorak: It's pretty good.
By the way, generally,
Adam Curry: it generally is
pretty good. And he says, I
analyze the leak New Zealand
whistleblower data and suggest
to be wary of it. And he says,
bad data inconsistent story. I
don't know this, Igor. I mean,
he's, honestly, I did some
research on this guy. I'm like,
well, now he says he runs his
own data. So it appears the data
looks legit, but there's big
pieces missing from it. So you
and I are kind of like, well, I
think this may be was just a
bullcrap story. But then Jimmy
Dore has Steve Kirsch come on
his show. Now, Steve Kirsch
actual Masters of Science, I
believe. Yeah, they're from MIT.
He even has, like a an
auditorium at MIT named after
him. He's done quite well, these
is he, what did he do? Did he
make his money with the optical
mouse? Was that his main claim
to fame? You know, I
John C Dvorak: don't think I
don't remember he lives around
here somewhere. And talk to him
a couple of times. Over
directly, I've got his phone
number. And he was a he's one of
these guilt ridden guys because
he was a big promoter of the
vaccine.
Adam Curry: Infoseek, this
search and that InfoSec. info
see, now info secret was
InfoSec. Now the search engine
and then he had Oh, okay frame
technology, which Adobe bought.
So he's been around.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, he's a he's
a really sharp guy. Okay,
though, he seems to be a guy
who's living a life of guilt,
because it seems that he
promoted the vaccine. And then
he discovered it was bold
creditors that it was bad. And
he turned, it became a major,
major anti COVID vaccine guy.
Yes. Major.
Adam Curry: He did. All right,
way beyond.
John C Dvorak: Well, we, we just
deconstruct news stories. We
don't take sides. So this
Adam Curry: is not. Jimmy Dore
got him on right away. I thought
that was pretty good. My point,
my point being that Steve cursed
us. He's a sharp guy. There's no
doubt about it. He's a sharp
guy. So for him to go out on
this limb. He clearly believes
in what he's saying. And I
pulled a couple of clips from
well,
Unknown: I got the data. And I
think I was the first person in
the world outside of the
whistleblower dude to get the
data. So it got uploaded to my,
my, I have a wasabi server,
Adam Curry: we need one of
those, John, we need a wasabi
server, whatever it is, I want
one.
Unknown: And the data was
uploaded in November. And though
the whistle blower asked me to
keep it quiet until November 30.
And on November 30, I had a
speech in the MIT auditorium,
the Kirsch auditorium, it's
named after me. And they
actually let me speak there
because the student group was
willing to sponsor my speaking
there. But they couldn't find an
MIT faculty member who was
willing to sponsor me to speak
about the truth about the COVID
vaccines, but fortunately, a
student group invited me and so
I spoke about this, this huge
data dump from New Zealand, and
they've confirmed that it is
legitimate data from a
legitimate source. And that data
shows there's no way you can
analyze this and come to any
other conclusion other than the
vaccines have killed massive
numbers of people about one in
1000 which means the vaccines
have killed 675,000 People in
America and 13 about 13 million
people worldwide.
Adam Curry: All right, he has my
attention. And he's going to go
into some
John C Dvorak: by the end by the
way on this show, months and
months and months ago, we had to
one in 1000 number oh yeah, this
is not necessarily Mrs. None of
this is new.
Adam Curry: So this kind of
leads me to believe that this
data has been so this data has
been out for at least a month
people have had it I'm sure
Kirsch wasn't the only guy
perhaps we have this this
controversy Dare I say thrown
into the ether so that it can be
similar some summarily dismissed
by mainstream to say Nah, you
know, these guys, nut job,
Master of Science, whatever
Steve Kershel anti Vax maybe
it's just been thrown into this,
this tumbler so that now it can
be dismissed as a bunch of
nutjob high up thank you.
Unknown: It's all the records in
a particular database in the New
Zealand Ministry of Health. So
this is 1/3 of all the
vaccination records for the New
Zealand for New Zealand. And so
with this data, which includes
the death data and the date of
birth, we can calculate To
everything we want to calculate
in order to show whether the
vaccines are safe and effective,
there's only one way to do this
calculation. And there's only
one result of the calculation.
And there's only one way to
interpret the results of the
calculation. And it shows
massive numbers of people
killed, effective 13 million
people were killed by their
governments worldwide. And this
data proves now there are people
who are skilled at gaslighting
people and trying to convince
them that this data shows
something other than what it
does.
Adam Curry: So there he's saying
looks like there could be some
psyop going on. That's how the
creative or I Consulting Group
analyze everything is yeah, we
do. So then he's going to go
into the analysis of the data.
Because this is not a new
analysis that's been done, as
you just said, we had this
information, the correct
Unknown: way to analyze this
data is to do a time series
cohort analysis, which is the
most sophisticated analysis
that's available for data like
this. This is what the
epidemiologists use. This is
what the UK Office of National
Statistics used to prove the
vaccines are safe and effective.
So it's a known technique is
generally accepted in the
community. And it's the most
sophisticated technique. And it
was only the UK ons which use
the sophisticated technique. And
of course, their data was very
flawed. But even then, it's
still showed the same signal, as
in the New Zealand data. And we
see the same signal in the US
Medicare data, which is all gold
standard data. So you have the
UK, New Zealand, and the United
States of America, all showing
the same result, which is you
take these vaccines, and your
risk of dying, the next day is
higher than it was the day
before. And it keeps going up
and up and up. So
Adam Curry: this to me is a very
level headed dissection or
analysis of the data. Because we
were promised safe and effective
we know effective fell by the
wayside. Right away. The safe
side is what's in question. So,
you know, the entire, the entire
reason I believe, for this to be
so controversial, is to make it
dismissible by government
agencies because they are hiding
it as witness in his third and
final clip. So
Unknown: for dose two, for
example, in the United States of
America, we have the Medicare
data that proves this. In the
United States of America, you
take those two, your risk goes
up every single day, for 365
days in a row. And it goes up at
the end of 365 days. It's
climbed by 26% over baseline 26%
over baseline it should be
falling by 4%. Because this is
Medicare data, and then the
Medicare mortality is about 4%
per year. So this data, when you
look at these people who have
been vaccinated with with those
two, and you take them and you
look at how they die over time,
there should be like 4% of them
should die over a period of 12
months. And what we're finding
is an accelerated death rate
that is about it's it's 30%.
Differential from the 4% It's
supposed to go down. So there's
no doubt about it. There. You
can have have the death curve
march up in a straight line for
12 months without any
fluctuations whatsoever. It is
like clockwork it is the most
beautiful graph I have ever
seen. And I just got it recently
from a whistleblower inside of
health and human services
because the CDC doesn't disclose
this data. They have the data
the CDC has access to this
Medicare data with vaccines and
deaths they refuse to analyze
it.
Adam Curry: So Long live the
dudes named Ben they're not all
as articulate like our boy
they're New Zealand's because it
didn't come out right and he
didn't find the right partner to
blow the whistle with. But I
liked Steve Kirsch his the way
he talks about this analysis I
think sounds good particularly.
If you add to it this one minute
clip from the gold standard
Peter McCullough. The man cannot
be taken down because of his
credentials. Who said this just
this last week
Unknown: now I mentioned the
vaccines since 2021. The
vaccines has ravaged the
population in the world.
Worldwide. Two thirds of people
took a vaccine the United States
COVID Community states study
shows 75% of Americans took a
vaccine thankfully 25% Didn't I
was the only public health and
public figure in the United
States in writing to question
the vaccines before they came
up. And I did it as loudly as I
could. To COVID-19 vaccines, the
United States, 94% of Americans
took a messenger RNA vaccine. It
is the genetic code for the
potentially lethal spike protein
part of the virus. It was the
worst idea ever to install the
genetic code by injection, and
allow unbridled production of a
potentially lethal protein in
the human body for an
uncontrolled duration of time.
Everything we've learned about
the vaccine, since they come out
is horrifying.
Adam Curry: So to be clear, I
certainly don't think everybody
who was Vax is going to die.
There's no evidence of that. But
anecdotally, and you and I just
talked about this the other day,
and I'm going to go into all of
our I'm going to do that. After
I get back from Indian life.
Indianapolis. So it'll be next
maybe Thursday show, I am going
to take a look at the increase
in producers who have in their
notes mentioned, friends or
spouses dying, and the amount of
karma F current cancer karma
requests. You and I anecdotally
have seen these go up? Yeah,
tripled? Yes. While you're
saying trip, I'm gonna get the
actual number. So there's that.
But will this ever really be
discussed? At the level it
should be? No
John C Dvorak: doubtful.
Doubtful. Why would it be an
embarrassment? Steve
Adam Curry: Kirsch added in a in
a slash today? That's what you
do on extra slash? You lash
Yeah, I call this lash just
formerly known as tweet. You
slash on x. You can now sue the
mRNA COVID vaccine manufacturers
for damages and the FDA is
required to take the COVID
vaccines off the market why?
adulteration which we talked
about the plasmid by act active
contaminant sequences were not
pointed out to the regulatory
authorities it is considered
adulteration. He says he got off
the phone with his lawyers. And
he says that you can sue. And
I'm sure that they're already
lawsuits in the making. Yeah,
there's plenty for what good
it'll do. What good? No, no,
probably not. It's
John C Dvorak: a concerted
effort by the media. Right at
the very top of the pyramid. And
the government. Yes. Yeah. And
the media is still there. You
can I can turn on the TV right
now and hear somebody tell Oh,
get a shot. Get a COVID get a
COVID shot and other COVID shots
good for you. And never ends.
Adam Curry: In fact, what did I
read? I read the other day, Mia,
we had the triple Demick last
year. This year they're talking
about I don't have a clip of it
yet. We're waiting for the first
one to pop up. Sin Demick sy n
sin Demick What's that mean?
Well, I guess that's more than
three cups endemic? I'm gonna
see if it's popped up anywhere
yet.
John C Dvorak: By the way, I
wanted to get back to this we
talked about the cop thing. Do
you know what cops stands for?
Adam Curry: So go look it up
citizens on patrol? Exactly. I
knew that sin Demick sin Demick.
Sin Demings model of health
focuses on the biosocial complex
which consists of interacting co
present or sequential sequential
diseases. And the social
environmental factors is climate
change. There's not going to
catch a climate change is
killing us now. I know what it
John C Dvorak: stands for
Conference of the Parties. Oh,
Adam Curry: interesting.
John C Dvorak: What does that
even mean? Well, that's the
parties
Adam Curry: are having a party.
John C Dvorak: You're in Dubai
believe that. You're gonna be
partying as if
Adam Curry: your conference of
partying? Yeah, well, that makes
sense. And meanwhile, we have we
have a new term finally for this
China thing.
Unknown: Well, there's a health
warning out of Ohio this week
after a rise in childhood
pneumonia cases. Some are
calling it white lung syndrome.
We're gonna we're gonna get to
that in just a second what
exactly that is I want to talk
to Dr. Florin with Lurie
Children's Hospital about this.
He is in charge of a
pediatrician at he's a
pediatrician at Lurie Children's
Hospital so it seems like at
least around here in our
newsroom and all my friends I
feel like everybody has been
sick not just for like a week or
two but they have this sort of
lingering cough that seems to
last for
Adam Curry: a show. Listen,
there's something coming up that
a clip just for you. The whole
reason for this clip, they just
gonna talk over it and cough. I
Unknown: only I only band Mum,
Adam Curry: I play these clips
for you. I'm not planning for
anybody. All my clips are for
you. They have this
Unknown: sort of lingering cough
that seems to last for weeks. Is
it something out of the ordinary
or is Something that happens
sort of every year, and we're
just sort of overreacting to it
this time around. Yeah,
no, it's a great question, I
think. Yeah, no.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, no, it's a
great question doesn't
Adam Curry: get any better than
that. Yeah, no, it's a great
Unknown: question. And we're
John C Dvorak: missing was yeah,
no, it's a great question. Look,
Unknown: I can do it this time
around. Yeah. No, it's a great
question. I think we're all
hyper sensitized. Yeah, for what
we experienced.
Adam Curry: Anyway, this white.
So it is interesting that it's
Ohio. As we know, Ohio has
direct flights from China. So
maybe they brought over some
white lung syndrome. And that,
of course, has led some
Republicans to take a well known
step in these types of
operations.
Unknown: Hoefler. Tonight, both
of Florida's US Senators urging
the White House to stop travel
to and from China, Senators
Marco Rubio and Rick Scott are
among several Republican
lawmakers warning about a
mysterious respiratory illness,
they say is spreading in the
Asian country. They sent a
letter to President Joe Biden
today saying in part that travel
should immediately be restricted
quote, until we know more about
the dangers posed by this new
illness.
Adam Curry: Yeah, lock him down,
lock him down lock downs come in
lock downs. And now a clip that
is paused specifically because
you know a lot about this. Dr.
Unknown: Mani Cohen assure
lawmakers yesterday that a new
virus is not causing the surge.
Listen to this view of COVID. We
do not believe this is a new or
novel pathogen that we believe
this is all existing meaning
COVID Flu RSV. CNN CHIEF MEDICAL
CORRESPONDENT Dr. Sanjay Gupta
joins us now Sanjay, good
morning, always good to have you
on what can be behind this. And
how concerned should people be?
One thing that appears to be
complicating things, especially
in China is also bacterial
infections, they seem to be a
large part of what's driving
this as well. And they have a
lot of antibiotic resistance in
China. So this is something that
we're really keeping an eye on.
If you look at deaths associated
with antibiotic resistance
around the world, it's close to
5 million a year. I mean, people
may not realize that big in
China alone 600,000. So this is
also I think, further
complicating things that with
regard to this uptick, they're
likely to get it under control.
But they gotta keep an eye on
this problem. I mean, you know,
in China, for example, many
antibiotics are sold over the
counter. So that just sort of
fuels the problem. There's also
a lot of antibiotic use in
livestock. So there's all these
different places, we have to
sort of curb the use of
antibiotics. And I will tell you
this, it takes a long time to
develop new antibiotics that can
take you know, 10 to 15 years,
which is why there are people
around the world right now who
are trying to find alternative
sources of antibiotics. They're
scouring the bottoms of the
ocean with chips, and they're
looking even within nature to
see if something can serve as an
antibiotic. Now,
Adam Curry: we've discussed this
in the in the history of the
show many times, and you know a
lot about it.
John C Dvorak: I do. Yeah, I do
know, one thing is that the drug
companies, these hot shots that
are making billions of dollars
with vaccines, and the fact that
they make more money with that,
and they're not liable for
anything, have given up on
researching Babett antibiotics,
they've stopped, their
antibiotics labs have all been
closed down. They don't care
anymore, because they're just
after the money. And the
government said nothing to
counter this. That's the big
thing. I told you, you know a
lot about it. I'm just great
dosing.
Adam Curry: Meanwhile, sad news
for Pfizer, they've had to halt
the development of their twice
daily weight loss drug. They
were trying to hop on the
sediment semaglutide train the
GLP one drugs. Sad day, they
halted it because up to 73% of
people in the test experienced
nausea, up to 47% reported
vomiting, and 25% experienced
diarrhea. I thought that was the
feature of these drugs. And it
does so to
John C Dvorak: lose weight that
way. I mean, you can do it
yourself. It's called bulimia.
But nobody wants to do that
anymore.
Adam Curry: I mean, we did hear
from our, our psychiatrist. I
remember the one who talked, who
told us about how the how
control the psychiatrists are
when it comes to telling
children after one visit. Yep,
Bureau boy, you gotta get on
some drugs. Remember this? Yeah.
All right. So turns out, she
just wanted to say that she
wrote a very long piece in here.
She comes from a background her
mom was 400 pounds her entire
life she had she said this is
interesting. Watching her over
the years I learned how to hoard
and sneak food eat it very
quickly, because otherwise she
would eat it first, which I
thought was funny. Like, I
adopted and created many food
games I would play to try and
control my cravings and intake
nothing worked. I was overweight
most of my life. She says that
she had the food noise in her
head and Um, her. Her obesity
came from childhood trauma. You
know, basically she wanted to
not be attractive because of
some abuse that she had as a
young child. This is very well
known. This happens a lot,
especially to young girls. But
she ends by saying 34 years old
now, at 34 years old, I'm now 43
Everything changed. I sought out
Overeaters Anonymous, they
sister program to Alcoholics
Anonymous. Now, they of course
have a religious part to this.
So she's embraced God and
spirituality but along with
that, Kim a very strong
influence to not eat foods that
contain sugar, and over
processed foods, then she has
lost 115 pounds she actually
sent two pictures before and
after them. So she is just
saying that the food noise is
real, but it's coming from sugar
addiction and unprocessed foods,
which is the real problem, which
is which is the issue that we
have and I saw this in the
Netherlands where we used to go
to the butcher get your beef, we
went to the actual Baker and we
got our bread the milkman
dropped the milk off in the in
the bottles and everyone biked
to school, no matter what,
whether now, and now you go
look, they're getting fat.
They're getting obese because
they've got processed food,
they've got fast foods, we got
all kinds of stuff. All all bad
intake, and it's about to get
worse now for business news tick
tock is one of the world's
that's not what I wanted. I'm
sorry, I forgot to cut it stay
Unknown: competitive with higher
end.
John C Dvorak: Girls, after
sorry, late when you do the big
grandiose. I
Unknown: screw it up. The Wall
Street Journal reports that the
chain has been working for the
past McDonald's seven years on
improving its signature
hamburgers. After a test run in
Australia. These 50 tweaks which
include a brioche bun, fresher
patties and more sauce. Well,
they'll be unveiled in the
United States that why is
McDonald's doing this well to
stay competitive with higher end
chains that have taken a $2.4
billion chunk out of the United
States $72 billion burger
market. Needless to say the
rollout is massive with 10s of
1000s of McDonald's workers
across the globe. No news yet
though. We'll about when these
changes will come to the
European McDonald's. So
Adam Curry: McDonald's is going
to make 55 Zero improvements to
its hamburger. How about better
meat?
John C Dvorak: Well, how about
they've been they've been
devolving their burgers I
haven't had when I do like to do
a quarterly report for
Horowitz's show and and I'm here
to try to have one of these I
can't last time I couldn't even
eat it but so I but I do get the
ice cream cone once in a while
when it's hot out. But when I do
that I go through the normal
line and the drive thru and I
look at the menu yes and I gotta
get bring the camera and go get
another ice cream cone because
this you know what? A quarter
pounders like $11.10 bucks for a
Big Mac. These used to be when I
was a kid. This used to be the
15 cent hamburger place 15 cents
that 15 cent burger now is
almost three bucks. I mean what
did inflation does it no no I
know how dad got the inflation
tables this is way beyond
inflation and in the same during
that same period Dave to quality
has gone nothing but downhill.
Well,
Adam Curry: there's a couple of
things one minimum wage
requirements mainly in
California for fast food workers
unionization this is this is
it's all been predicted. Well
you know if you if you want if
you want to do that, then you
know pressure your burger is
gonna go up. But I'm very
curious to see a what they did
to improve their burger 50
steps. That's got to be taste
and texture products they're
mixing in to get ready for every
morning show in America. Boy,
oh, let's try the new burgers
we're on all the native ads are
going to start coming in.
John C Dvorak: It'd be great.
It'd
Adam Curry: be dropping that
will be fun. And But meanwhile,
if that's too expensive for you,
John C Dvorak: this is the best
burger I think I've ever had.
There's gonna be there's the
line. Yeah, I would write this
line and put it into the script
that they have to somebody has
to say this. You know, it'd be
elrow could be good at this. I
think this is the best burger
I've ever eaten. This
Adam Curry: reminds me of the
burgers I had with a kid when I
was a kid. That's the line I'd
write this. gone back to the
base of this. Whatever
McDonald's has done. Its magic.
They got better cows. And it's
this is this goes back to the
burger I tasted when I was a
kid. I'm selling his burger
classic. If you can't afford
that we have a solution for you
Unknown: for macaroni and cheese
that has no dairy newly released
today by Chicago based Kraft
Foods
it's called not mac and cheese
and it was developed with
Chicago startup not called.
Kraft is offering two versions
original and white cheddar. The
fake cheese will be made out of
fava beans and coconut oil
powder. It follows other plant
based products cheese slices and
mayonnaise released earlier this
year. Looks like mac and cheese
tastes like mac and cheese, not
mac and cheese.
John C Dvorak: You slaves can
get used the Mac the mac and
cheese macaroni and cheese
shatter melted together mac and
cheese
Adam Curry: mac and cheese mac
and cheese so it doesn't even
have cheap cheddar in it
anymore. And we've been on the
mac and cheese thing for 14
years. Maybe even longer. We
have said this would be the
future of food and here we are
right again. The future of food
we were wrong on the fact that
it would be cheese
John C Dvorak: is not even
cheese's fava beans or some damn
thing it's processed by a
refinery is disgusting.
Adam Curry: It's unbelievable.
Now I believe it's believable.
This is where we are this is
where we're at.
John C Dvorak: This is it. So
I'm going to play three clips
that are a different topic.
Okay. Because this is coming
this is coming to a head and the
clips are the it says f e i
think is GA but this f e o RG vs
vs. Oh
Adam Curry: yes. Yeah, this is a
great case. And this case
John C Dvorak: is interesting
because it's it's it may or may
not did. But I'll tell you what
the issue is as we play a few
these glimpses PLAY CLIP one.
The
Unknown: Supreme Court is
considering how much authority
federal government agencies
have. The Biden administration
has appealed a lower court
decision in favor of hedge fund
manager and conservative radio
jockey George dark hazy, the SEC
find dark hazy and barred him
from the industry after finding
he committed securities fraud.
The lower court then rolled a
drug case he should have been
allowed a jury trial, we turn
out to our Legal Correspondent,
Arlene Richards to sort out the
arguments. Arlene in layman's
terms. What happened here?
Well, to state it simply the SEC
is a government agency. And for
years, it has been initiating
claims against individuals
through its in house tribunal
system rather than going to an
outside court. Now Congress gave
them that power under the
Securities and Exchange Act.
They use the same system in this
case, which find in BB George
dark hazy for securities fraud.
Now he appealed to the Fifth
Circuit Court of Appeals, sir
Casey's attorney argued that the
SEC is powers should be
restricted by the Seventh
Amendment of the Constitution,
which gives individuals the
right to a jury trial. At oral
argument today, he said that
basic securities fraud is a
typically common law claim, and
therefore this client should
have gotten a jury trial in a
federal court. So this case is
about what is the extent of
those Seventh Amendment
restrictions in securities fraud
cases where the SEC is seeking
penalties. In this case, the
Fifth Circuit also ruled that
the SEC has actions violated
articles one and two of the
constitution. So the court
effectively invalidated three
aspects of the SEC is
operations. Yeah,
Adam Curry: this could change
the entire administrative slash
Deep State.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, but the
problem is this case is stepping
on the upcoming case about
Chevron deference. Yes, yes.
Which is better. That's, that's
the case, which is a killer,
because it's about some guy in a
fishing boat where he had to
hire inspectors and he had to
pay the for the inspector or
government inspectors would be
on his boat. And it was just a
complete. The problem was
administrative law. It was
always accepted, accepted by the
insofar as
Adam Curry: I have, after your
clips, I have a 45 second clip
that explains Chevron deference.
John C Dvorak: Okay, so the
point is, is that the Chevron
deference case will be the one
that can screw over
administrative law, because of
abuse of power, which is what's
happened with that upcoming
Case. This case is a bad case
because it could step in and
under some circumstance, create
a precedent that would set rule
over
Adam Curry: Oh, so this guy is a
see a shield?
John C Dvorak: No, I don't think
so. I think there's just an
accident, but they've everyone's
glommed onto it, knowing the
potential for it being
destructive. Insofar as the
Chevron deference cases concern
which everybody's freaked out
about, they are freaked out,
because what that case would do
was take away this, these, these
kangaroo courts and all the rest
of it has to be all rethought is
a major major case. This case
here may screw it up. Let's Play
Part Two,
Unknown: presumably the SEC
followed the same proceedings
that it usually does to handle
suspected fraud. How is this
case? Are the proceedings
different from other cases?
Well, the proceeding itself was
not different. But I think the
issues raised on appeal were
different. And of course, the
Fifth Circuit's decision was
unexpected. Now the court
decided that Congress violated
the Seventh Amendment when it
gave the SEC the power to
initiate administrative
proceedings and seek penalties,
and that by giving them this
power, the SEC has unrestricted
authority to choose cases and
seek remedies without going to a
federal court. And the Fifth
Circuit said fraud actions like
this case should be handled
under federal common law and not
by independent agency action.
It seems like the Fifth Circuit
unilaterally changed a law or
proceeding that has always been
used by the SEC. What was the
Biden administration's response
to the ruling?
Well, the Biden administration
is, of course very concerned
about this ruling. Notably, the
SEC is five member commission is
appointed by the president with
the consent of the Senate. So
this ruling undercuts the
administration's authority.
Their response to this decision
is that the SEC has a long
standing practice of filing
cases under the Securities and
Exchange Act. It uses an
administrative proceeding that
sends these cases to an
administrative law judge, and
that Judge reviews evidence,
holds hearings and hears
arguments. If the defendant
doesn't agree with the decision,
he has the right to appeal to a
court of appeals, which is what
happened here. So in other
words, he got due process. They
argued that the Fifth Circuit
made significant errors in its
ruling, because Congress does in
fact, have the power to appoint
individual matters to agencies,
even if they involve common law
issues.
Adam Curry: This is kind of the
same thing with the IRS, where
the IRS who have guns by the
way, they've showed up in my
office with guns. They, you
know, if you want to appeal a
ruling by the IRS, you can but
you got to have like $100,000 to
mount a case, which is why most
people don't do it. But this
guy's a Wall Street guy. So he
said, Screw it, I'm going for
it.
John C Dvorak: Okay, part three.
Unknown: They also argued that
Congress's power to delegate
matters to agencies doesn't
depend on whether or not the
case is uniquely suited for
agency review.
Now, what are some of the
concerns expressed by the
Supreme Court justices today
during oral argument?
Well, I think the biggest
concern here is what effect this
change would ultimately have.
And one of the justices noted
that this involves asking the
court to change the law, and she
expressed concern that it would
require changing the powers of
all federal agencies, Dr.
Casey's attorney said this could
be fixed by giving the people a
choice of which Tribunal can
review the case. But I think
many of the justices were
concerned that the federal
courts would now be burdened
with an increase of cases. And
actually, some experts have said
this decision is particularly
troublesome for federal banking
regulators who solely rely upon
in house tribunals. Those
regulators don't have the option
to file claims in federal
courts. But the court today,
Tiffany seems to be considering
the suggestion that individuals
should have an option to choose
the tribunal.
Adam Curry: So here is a 40. I
think it's a 45. Second
explainer from last year,
November last year about the
Chevron deference case,
Unknown: Tony asks off topic,
but can you explain Chevron
deference and the rule of
lenity, the Chevron is not a use
of force doctrine. So it's not
my area of expertise, but just
you know, general legal
knowledge. Chevron was the
Supreme Court case in which the
Supreme Court essentially said
that if there's an
administrative decision by part
of the executive branch, the EPA
makes some kind of
administrative decision. It's
not a statute passed by the
legislature by Congress signed
by the President. It's not a law
in that sense. It's not case
law. It's not an appellate court
ruling.
Adam Curry: It's just the EPA
makes an administrative decision
that that is treated much as if
it were a statute or was case
law and is equally binding. The
effect is to give the
administrative state the
bureaucracy, incredible power
and authority that many argue I
would argue they should not have
been so that could go back and
then the administrative state
would have to adhere to the
rules as passed by Congress. And
Congress has to be more
specific, because they Congress
has to do some work. Yeah,
because they just go Yeah,
that's good. But we'll let the
EPA figure it out. Well, at the
IRS figured out but the SEC
figured out
John C Dvorak: the irony of the
whole Chevron deference case,
which I think is
underappreciated, especially in
its ironic for him is that it
came out of the Reagan
administration. Oh really? And
it came out because because they
loosened that a Reagan told the
EPA No, no, no, you guys are too
strict, you've got to pull back
these various, you know, these
these these requirements of
loosen regulations because it
was, you know, and so they did
so they loosened regulations and
got sued for loosening
regulations by dropping the
standards. They got sued by a
bunch of environmental groups
that went to the
Adam Curry: probably Kennedy. It
went betcha
John C Dvorak: I don't know. But
it went back to the Supreme
Court. They said, Look, did they
say, look, they said, look,
here's what we're gonna do,
because they ended up I think
Chevron got involved by being
sued, because they took
advantage of the new, looser
regulations. And then they got
sued by the local law,
environmentalists. And they did
the whole thing went to court
and the Supreme Court said,
look, look, look. They said,
what, what we have here is a
situation where we have to, we
have all these administrative
laws it whatever they say goes.
And so if they want to loosen
the law, fine, if they want to
tighten it fine, and that's the
way it is. And then that was,
became the Chevron deference.
And they've sort of they've
environmentalists kind of lost
the case. But that's where it
started. So nobody thought about
well, instead of going getting
looser and making less
regulations, because you just do
it on demand. I'm a regulator i
these regulations, I'm going to
change your mold and nothing.
You get a bunch of assholes in
there doing crazy stuff, like
making requirements that are
unobtainable, which is where we
are now. So now this case is you
know, it's abuse of power. It's
very interesting, kind of a
switcheroo there, which happens
is what, what happens when the
or they overdo things
Adam Curry: since you bring up
Reagan? I watched the Arnold
Schwarzenegger documentary on
Netflix. Yeah, it's a three
parter. And for the it's so it's
three hours, basically, the
first two and a half hours.
You're like, wow, America is
great. What a great country.
Look at this guy. Look at what
he did look at how America
worked for him. It's just
everything is beautiful. It's
like apple pie almost is so
good. It's so beautiful. And
then it gets to the part where
Arnold Schwarzenegger runs for
reelection as governor of
California. And he goes, he got
he put the this the state in
debt for $222 billion for solar
crap before climate change,
because he decided to work. Oh,
I got two hands across the
aisle. And then he left. I mean,
it was the other states were
worse by the time 2008 came
around. But it's it's really
disappointing to see how this
kind of a good guy got
completely captured because he
tried to be nice, co opted, yes.
He tried to be nice. And those
exact same climate change rules
and regulations that he put into
California is what Obama
nationalized. This even this,
it's all in there. Obama won.
Hey, Arnold was great. Let's do
this for all 50 states. And this
was it was
John C Dvorak: yeah, thanks to
his wife.
Adam Curry: Well, he was Maria
and I think they were divorced
by then.
John C Dvorak: No, I don't think
so. I think when he first
started with the climate stuff,
he was already Yeah. Could be
could be that was really near
the end when he was Yeah, is
stupid is made by No,
Adam Curry: that was that was 96
is when Joseph was born. I mean,
it wasn't no, no,
John C Dvorak: when he got
caught. Well, it was pretty old.
But
Adam Curry: he was 14 You know
how that went. So, of course, he
was, you know, he was the
governor and he was in
Sacramento. So you know, it's
very difficult on a family, and
they were going to they were in
therapy together. And one day,
he's in therapy, and the
therapist says, okay, Maria
wants to ask you a question. And
she says, yeah, it's Joseph your
son. And he said, Well, at that
point, I just told the truth.
And then boom was all over. And
he's it's kind of sad because
he's alone now. You know, he's,
he's 70.
John C Dvorak: Donkey that he
lives with the donkeys.
Adam Curry: They're the donkeys
in the house. Talk he's walking
around this, it's kind of sad.
The NHS didn't, it was not a
good ending. But it just shows
that, you know, everything was
great. And then he got co opted
and then just went down the
tubes. And I can see you know, I
can see his thinking. We got
soon in California, we should
turn that into energy. Didn't
work out that way. I'm going to
replay one of the two clips we
had from Richard Haass with
Morning Joe, which we played a
week and a half ago because
there is news on the Ukraine
Russia front that is important
to discuss and there's no clips,
so I'm going to replay This how
Unknown: long to our allies in
Europe who've all done? I think,
together, NATO has done an
extraordinary job. How much
longer? Do we continue pushing?
I think, what what many people
in Pentagon would think see
unrealistic goal of Ukraine
driving every last Russian out
of out of their country? It's
exactly the right. Question,
Joe. And what concerns me is
when people get this solution
and increasingly come to the way
you were, you and I are, that as
desirable as it is, it's simply
not feasible. They're going to
increasingly say, and we're
hearing it in the house, we're
hearing in parts of Europe, why
should we keep doing this, we're
already stretched, we're trying
to support Israel, we're worried
about Taiwan. And even if we
give everything we need to give
or want to give to Ukraine, it
still won't lead to success.
What I argued, therefore, is the
United States needs to have some
very direct conversations with
Ukraine with President Solinsky.
Talking about reducing their
emphasis on liberating land
increasingly put all their
emphasis on holding on to what
they've got, in the long run
diplomatically through
sanctions, yes, we can try to
see the rest of their territory
return. But for right now, let's
have 80% of this country save
80% of this country, rebuilt, I
would actually propose the
ceasefire as an interim
arrangement to expose the
Russians for what they are, so
we can rebuild support for
Ukraine and in this country. But
we've had two fighting seasons,
the idea that one or two or
three more years of this is
going to result in success. I
simply don't see it, Russia is
on a war footing. They have
access all sorts of arms from
North Korea and Iran. So I just
think, anytime in foreign policy
anytime in life, there's a big
gap between what you're trying
to do and your ability to do it.
You've either got to increase
your means or lower your goals.
And I think here the only
realistic option as a tactical
measure is to lower our goals.
So
Adam Curry: we took that as an
obvious signal to morning, Joe.
Well,
John C Dvorak: let's make sure
that we mentioned the fact that
this guy he was talking to
Morning Joe is the head of the
Council on Foreign Relations.
Adam Curry: Big Big Cheese and
he goes on Morning, Joe really?
So yeah, he makes no sense. He
may even be just be friends.
With Scarborough say Hey, bro,
like. So now we know that there
was an article in The Economist
which we missed. And for it to
be any economist at all, which
is very left leaning with the
new editor who has been there a
couple of years that both the
nanny most both the military
generals are the leaders of the
Russian military and the
Ukrainian military, both named
Valerie interesting Valera
Bhaduri. Have been talking and
they have decided they're going
to end this thing. Seymour Hersh
wrote about it and pretty good
substack everyone in Europe is
talking about this the peace
talks. An American businessman
who spent years dealing with
high level Ukrainian diplomatic
and military issues and
government told me earlier this
week, but there are lots of
questions between the ceasefire
and the settlement, the veteran
journalist on an Anatol Lieven
wrote this week that the
battlefield situation Ukraine,
and the ceasefire negotiations
for peace settlement are
becoming more and more necessary
for Ukraine. He said that it was
exceptionally difficult for the
Ukrainian government headed by
Volodymyr Zelensky. To agree to
talks given his repeated refusal
to negotiate with Russian
President Vladimir Putin. The
driving force behind of those
talks has not been Washington or
Moscow, or Biden or Putin. But
instead the two high ranking
generals who run the war.
Valerie garish come off of
Russia and Valerie Zelazny of
Ukraine. And on the table is
everything that we heard here
from Haas 80%, they'll keep
their 80% of the 20% that they
have recaptured, which was what
it was about in the first place.
Interestingly, on the table
appears to be the allowance for
Ukraine to become a NATO
country, as long as they do not
have any weaponry on the new
border, as it is now. And it can
be defensive only and that would
be the concession that Putin
makes they keep Crimea, they
keep the Donbass region and a
NATO can then or Ukraine can
then become a NATO country,
which is like wow, has has Putin
learned nothing, but okay. But
it seems like this is is is
happening and even in The
Economist, First Lady, Alina
Zelenka told the economists she
does not want President
Volodymyr Zelensky to lead and
to lead another term and he
needs to find something new in
life. She doesn't want him to be
president anymore. So I think
this is feels like this is
John C Dvorak: a handful at
home. She looks like it
Adam Curry: a handful at home.
So it looks like this is really
happening. It's coming to an
end. Now of course they have to
Hit I loved the end of Hersha
substack. The two generals may
continue to talk and Putin may
indeed be interested in a
settlement that gives him
permanent control of Crimea and
the four provinces he has
claimed. But the Lenski remains
the wildcard, the American
official said that Zelinsky has
been told that this is a
military to military problem to
solve and the talks will go on
with or without you, if
necessary. The American official
told me we can finance his
voyage to the Caribbean, which
kind of goes in line with those
two yachts he supposedly just
bought it.
John C Dvorak: He's got Yes,
he's also got houses all over
the world. That was a
documentary on YouTube done by
Scott Ritter Ritter. That was
very detailed, and all the
houses that Zelinsky has managed
to accumulate all over the
world. So yeah, he can they can
get them out of there if they
want to. There's I got a weird
Ukraine clip that I wanted to
play, which is this just off the
wall. I was collecting good news
clips. And this is from the
Shreveport Louisiana local
station. And I guess there's a
bunch of and I think, I don't
know how this isn't a violation
of the Logan Act. I play this
clip,
Unknown: the war in Ukraine
rages on and today a delegation
from the Ukrainian parliament
met in downtown Shreveport to
inform the public about the
state of the war, and how
crucial economic investments
from American businesses are
needed to help rebuild that
country are Madison Edwards
spoke with members of the
Ukrainian parliament, and he has
more on what they discuss. So
what was it Madison?
Well, Jeff Louisiana in the
Ukraine share similar port
exports. That's why the members
of the parliament are asking the
local tree port citizen to help
their cause and for business
leaders in the area to invest in
the rebuilding of the nation.
Louisiana is a major trading
partner of Ukraine, and the
Ukrainian delegation met in
downtown Shreveport to discuss
strengthening ties between the
state and Ukraine through
business, Energy, Agriculture
and humanitarian efforts amid
the ongoing conflict, Member of
Parliament, David, Eric AMITA
says tree port and Ukraine share
similar business exploits.
Adam Curry: So the thinking here
is that this is Mike Johnson,
Speaker of the House is home
state. He's their congressman.
Mike, definitely aware of
getting to him influence
operation. I mean, they so what
it sounds like is, well, of
course the Biden administration
wants no end. Because let's
because then the focus will come
back to him and Hunter, which,
of course, is what we're going
to be wasting our time with for
the next year. Thanks,
Republicans in Congress. That,
so neither the Biden
administration or the Lensky
wants to give this up. Give me
credit, man. So we need a
solution. So everybody can bow
out. And I mean, maybe this is
something for the curry Devorah
Consulting Group, we need a
solution to everybody can save
face.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, a lot of
space saving needed here. This
report went on for a long time.
I didn't clip the whole thing it
was I saw it, I saw the whole
thing. Well, the one point that
they kind of made in there as
these guys is group of
Parliamentarians from, or
parliament members from Ukraine
are gonna hit like 10 states
along the
Adam Curry: well. That's part of
the this is part of the
rebuilding. This is the
rebuilding part.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, they're
trying to set set the stage but
Well, I think that when it seems
pretty screwy, if he asked me
the when would be
Adam Curry: Ukraine becoming a
NATO country? That would be that
that's an obvious win for for
the US. White House. All right.
We got them, but they're nowhere
near being prepared for that.
Right? Yes. Has Sweden even been
approved yet?
John C Dvorak: Sweden still, I
think still in in limbo, Finn,
Finland
Adam Curry: has near Finland got
their approval. So I mean, they
need something now.
John C Dvorak: What's possible
also the following. Let's say
that deal is done where? Yeah,
you can join NATO. But then but
joining NATO, NATO does have to
have a majority or not a
majority but a unanimous consent
but all the NATO members,
including Russia,
Adam Curry: no, I'm just
kidding.
John C Dvorak: People actually
would would believe this. You
know, I know. We've seen clips
or oh, I don't know why. We've
seen clips. But so you do a
behind the scenes deal with
Turkey, Turkey a turkey a and
tell them hey, Nix this, okay.
And then you Nix it or even even
Putin could do that deal. I
mean, somebody could do it
because Turkey doesn't care at
this point, don't they? They're
the ones screwing up though.
Sweden. Yeah, yes, yeah. Yeah.
So it's possible that they won't
I mean, they Yeah, okay. We let
him in but we won't let him in.
Adam Curry: Well, no, we'll let
him in. We're all for good to go
US Europe. They all say okay,
it's gonna be great. They're
going to be NATO that is the
stepping stone towards full
European membership, which they
also won't get.
John C Dvorak: That would be the
worst thing that Europe, Europe.
They don't
Adam Curry: want another grease
on their hands. So and then
you're right, then then we were
then we have turkey aid just be
the the foil the foil continuous
foil, like nope, nope, nope,
nope. But But I mean, it's, it's
a beautiful, it's a beautiful
thing that is coming to an end.
I'm so happy. We need less war.
In our lives,
John C Dvorak: we can deal with
less mess that is just a
regularization of parts of the
country. Well, they have
Adam Curry: the rebuilding
projects all good to go. I mean,
that everybody's ready. And I'm
sure there's money to be made.
There's tons. Well, there's
money in the in the How about
that? How about we we give you
rush as money with 300 billion
that's been on the table for a
long time. I'm sure the Rush has
written it off. You know,
they're trying to screw Russia
with the methane bullcrap. So
they could still kind of kind of
have their anti Russian stance.
I mean, there is something new.
And this was so funny. We've
been through this so many times
with Russia, but Okay, here it
is one more time
Unknown: gay clubs across Russia
have been raided just days after
the country ruled the LGBT plus
community was extremist. The
reports from Moscow followed the
highest court in Russia banning
what it called the Global LGBTQ
movement. Human rights groups
have slammed the actions. So
this
Adam Curry: hasn't quite hit in
the US yet. I'm expecting it
because what happened is 48
hours after the Russian
government, and really what
they're after is one LGBTQ
organization, which is a
nonprofit, an NGO, who of
course, are weaponizing LGBTQ,
just as it's done here in the
US, they say, Hey, you guys are
an extremist organization.
You're not allowed anymore. If
this is not new, Russia has
gotten written rid of all kinds
of NGOs, because they usually
are, you know, agencies,
particularly for the United
States M CIA mi five, mi six, mi
five, mi six. So but this is
being twisted to say 48 hours
after the after they outlawed
LGBTQ they they invaded all the
bars, they raided the bars,
which which was for I guess they
were looking for some they would
try and do some big drug bust.
So that might catch a storm,
they might use that. I mean,
that could be a way to refocus
the Palestine energy. Now,
because something has to happen
with that the Palestine energy
is a problem as a real problem,
because they're just losing
losing grip over that. So you
know, we need to remind
everybody that Trump is a
dictator, and the worst scenario
imaginable in your life is if
Trump is reelected president,
again, you say Donald Trump, if
he is, I'm sorry, this is Liz
Cheney on CBS.
John C Dvorak: You don't waste
anyone even give her a mic.
Adam Curry: For this reason. And
this reason only, you say Donald
Unknown: Trump, if he is
reelected, it will be the end of
the Republic.
What do you mean, he's done all
this what he will do? It's very
easy to see the steps that he
will take people who say, Well,
if he's elected, it's not that
dangerous, because we have all
of these checks and balances,
don't fully understand the
extent to which the Republicans
in Congress today have been co
opted. One of the things that we
see happening today is a sort of
a sleepwalking into dictatorship
in the United States
dictatorship.
Adam Curry: It's a replay. It's
whenever you play Rocket
John C Dvorak: crap, when
everyone was lapping it up like
there's no tomorrow
Adam Curry: is Liz Cheney. Liz
Cheney
John C Dvorak: has got to be the
lowest form of human. Well,
there was a Gavin Newsom is
DeSantis the bay which was a
complete waste of an hour and a
half 5
Adam Curry: million viewers,
apparently. Yeah, well, that's
more than I expected.
John C Dvorak: And it is not a
slouch. Drew, so I didn't clip
any of it and I wasn't about
you. And it was a lot of talking
over each other. But I did get a
15 second clip of Capehart who
saw the clip who saw the whole
thing and he had all these
things to say about it and, and
he did this little ditty
Unknown: he Think that Governor
Newsom appearance though, helps
the campaign of President Biden
in any way?
I do, because when you and I
watched the debate, every almost
every, in every sentence, it was
Biden, Harris Biden, Harris
Biden, Harris, President Harris.
Adam Curry: It was promotion was
a promotion. That was great.
Well, here's the here's boots on
the ground. What's happening?
Chicago, which now is finally
building migrant camps in the
city, with the huge tents, which
should have been up a long time
ago, because it's 16 degrees in
Chicago, and all the migrants
who have been partially bussed
in from Texas, but others have
been flown in. And others choose
willingly to go
John C Dvorak: to Chicago. Yes.
Adam Curry: But these tents,
which will house I think, a
couple of 1000 migrants are in
black neighborhoods. We've been
following this for a while.
Yeah. And and this is not very,
this has now come to a head
where the black Chicagoans are
saying we're voting Republican,
Unknown: and any Republican
candidate, inner city of
Chicago, now is your time,
because we are done with the
democratic.
Black community. So we're here
today to say, Okay, if that's
what we were, we don't have to
support the Democratic Party.
Right, right. We don't have to
continue to support people who
are not going to support us. And
the Democratic Party, here in
this city, in this state, and in
this country is not supported.
You got Republicans and
Democrats on the other side,
guess what, they are part of the
same birthright. It doesn't
matter anymore which party we go
with. But I tell you this, I
read the deal with the snake
that outfit himself of the
Republican Party, then the snake
that's coming up in the
Democrat. We continue to stay up
with this. We're gonna continue
to allow our state
representatives, our congressmen
and our mayor you got to show us
the way that we got to show you
a great day in the city of
Chicago when a Democratic
Convention comes here that a lot
of black voters took Republicans
deal with that. We deal
Adam Curry: with that. Yeah,
that's right. The convention
coming in March in Chicago.
Every
John C Dvorak: time you went to
Chicago, it becomes a riot. Riot
is situation. Marketing back to
the 68 convention.
Adam Curry: It's a cycle. It
must be how many years is
John C Dvorak: 60 years it'd be
40 years, 60 years? 60 years
cycle? Just like the certain
stock market moves? Yeah. So you
have 60 years later, you get a
you know about 60
Adam Curry: It'll be ready to be
a real bad look. If the cops are
beaten blackheads. I'll tell you
that. Well, they will. They'll
be beaten up. Yeah, but it'd be
a bad look.
John C Dvorak: That was a bad
look. When they're beaten the
students and six good Democrats,
hey,
Adam Curry: we need to bring
that back. Beat students. We
need to bring that back that
crazy. This beat the beat them
students meet them students. One
of our producers, was intrigued
by our discussion of potential
vice presidential picks
John C Dvorak: for President
Trump. We have a we have pics
coming in. Well, we have.
Adam Curry: He has the odds. He
has the oddsmakers from the
sports bet in Australia, which I
thought was interesting, but
this is interesting. Okay. So I
guess the lowest number is the
most likely right. So it's one
in six. That's that that is more
likely than one in 40. Correct?
Yeah. Okay. All right. So in
order of appearance, one in six,
Kristi, noem from she's South
Dakota. Yep.
John C Dvorak: South Dakota
governor. One
Adam Curry: in 6.5. Elise
Stefanik, which was unknown to
me. But
John C Dvorak: I've heard her
name but I can't think of what
she is. She didn't know where
the Aussies came up with this.
Well, they'll
Adam Curry: better look.
John C Dvorak: I know
Adam Curry: they'll bet on
anything because they got
nothing better to do in
Australia than bet on gun
countries dead countries. Sorry
Aussies, but you got screwed.
She is a Republican
congresswoman from New York.
John C Dvorak: Oh, yeah, I know
who she is. She's the she hasn't
got a prayer. Okay.
Adam Curry: 1721 Vivec Ramaswamy
then it goes to 10 In 110, Nikki
Haley, then we go one and 12 Tim
Scott tied with Tucker Carlson.
John C Dvorak: No brother.
Adam Curry: I know this is why
Australia goes off the rails.
Then it one in 14 Kerry Lake.
Sarah her
John C Dvorak: legacy has been a
lot of people are pushing Carrie
lake.
Adam Curry: I don't think
President Trump wants her to
possibly upstage him and certain
guests
John C Dvorak: she's enough
stager. No doubt about that
she's
Adam Curry: upstage or yeah,
that that could be a problem.
Then my my potential pick one
and 21 so those odds are not
good Sarah Huckabee Sanders. And
then we get into just you know,
like Marsha Blackburn, Marjorie
Taylor Greene, Ben Carson.
Gregory Abbott know that Marco
Rubio I mean, it just I mean it
let's see odds it. One in 41 is
Tulsi Gabbard. Bobby, the
opposite 41 JD Vance at 41. So
the odds have it a Kristi, Noem,
at least a phonic that says she
couldn't be. She's definitely
had made the writing Kristi,
noem being a good candidate.
Man. The South Dakotans are not
happy with her. They're loud.
What? No, they just haven't been
a. Craig who's one of our
producers. She braised
John C Dvorak: a lot about being
the greatest governor in South
Dakota in the history of the
state.
Adam Curry: Now they have all
kinds of issues where there's
lots of stuff she's done that
the South Dakotans don't like
particularly the conservatives
that I'll have Craig Wright
credited Weinberg to have him
write write it up the write it
up for me the he'll tell me
succinctly what it is but I know
because that's when Megan Kelly
last last time I was on emphasis
on last time I was on
John C Dvorak: the last time
you're on yeah she's like
Adam Curry: Christie Christie no
my sadness out the colons don't
like it that's not true. Okay
Megan
John C Dvorak: your your
invitation of Kelly is almost
spot on. I mean, I can't tell if
you're if if she's actually in
the studio with you I know
Adam Curry: it's like we
switched over to New York. She's
now going into acting to make it
no no Megan Kelly Yeah,
everyone's okay so daily wire up
doing movie projects now that's
what that CEO guy is roaring
always want to do. So I guess
they're doing a district
John C Dvorak: who I'm reminded
of, of remembering Yahoo was run
by that guy from Hollywood. What
was his name? Start with a bee I
think I can't remember somebody
that did a troll room might
remember it was but he was such
a Hollywood he was going to turn
everything into like he was
gonna start using Yahoo money to
produce movies.
Adam Curry: Yeah, and then and
then they finally spent all this
time in LA and never was up
here. Yeah, and then they threw
the whole thing to Marissa Meyer
and just let it go to crap.
John C Dvorak: Yeah,
Adam Curry: what was the name of
what was that guy and he was a
real Hollywood guy. troll him
doesn't know anyway, so daily
wire doesn't know that stuns me
of trolls not paying attention
the trolling that's what they
do. They're too young they're
too young to know this stuff. I
mean, we could look it up I
mean, let's see your hair. Yeah,
now I gotta know Yahoo. Let's
do. Terry, wasn't it Terry
something Terry
John C Dvorak: son Terry. Terry.
Adam Curry: Terry. Terry Semel,
Terry Semel. I did that from
memory. Well, good for you very
much. Anyway, so the boring
company a boring if the boring
company boring the CEO of daily
wire. So he's all on the movie
tip. And so they're doing an
animated short or as series
which I think that's what Megan
is going to be acting in. And of
course, what everyone's talking
about is Lady ballers. The
movie. You heard about Lady
ballers have me? Yeah, yeah. And
I and I think this is a mistake
to be honest about I think it's
counterproductive. Now I like
humor. What
John C Dvorak: What's What's the
mistake?
Adam Curry: If they're what is
their mission? Is that missing?
Just have
John C Dvorak: no I met you what
you're saying you're like the
guy who owns a little store in
the corner and the guy across
the street selling junk jewelry.
So you sell junk junk jewelry,
and then another guy down the
street does knife sharpening. So
you do knife sharpening and
pretty soon, the store that you
started to sell something or
other is now just a store full
of different junk processes.
Adam Curry: Wow, I hadn't
thought of explaining it that
way. Well, that's what
John C Dvorak: it is. Know what
your do and do it. Well. So this
is all of a sudden, well, you
know, while we're at it, why
don't we do this in that now?
Adam Curry: Well, so they have
some big names that they have in
this in this movie. Then it's an
anti woke move. v. And, you
know, it's like it just seems
like why do you you're doing
John C Dvorak: an anti woke
movies as bad as doing a woke
movie?
Adam Curry: Oh, there you go.
That's it was just as bad as
doing getting
John C Dvorak: politics out of
it. I mean, that's what you're
talking about. Yeah,
Adam Curry: I think you're I
think that's that's what I'm
saying. Yeah. Is that Yeah,
let's do a good movie. There he
goes,
John C Dvorak: right making
good, good, entertaining.
Adam Curry: Joy. That's the
movie. We'll all enjoy watching
that everybody can go and watch.
But I guess that's what Barbie
was.
John C Dvorak: Maybe a lot of
everybody went and watched it.
Yeah, it was.
Adam Curry: I still have. I
still haven't seen it. I can't
bring myself to watch. You
John C Dvorak: won't get past
that. You will not get it over
1020 minutes into his No way.
No, I'm because it's silly. It's
a silly promotional film. Yes.
Yes. It's very pink though. And
I will say this when the Oscars
come out if they don't give set
decoration or art director to
the person who did that movie
screwing up because it is
Stunning. Stunning.
Adam Curry: So before we take a
break, I think we should
probably discuss Israel and
Hamas lips. Yeah, let me let me
kick this off with the Morning
Joe clip just to get us into the
mood a little
Unknown: deeper into the New
York Times report that Israel
new Hamas was planning a wide
scale assault a year before the
October 7 terrorist attack one
year, according to the Israeli
officials obtained an
approximately 40 page document,
which they codenamed as Ed said
Jericho wall. It outlined point
by point exactly the kind of
devastating invasion that led to
the deaths of about 1200 people
probably many more. The Times
writes Israeli military and
intelligence officials dismissed
the plan as aspirational,
considering it too difficult for
Hamas to carry out. Well.
The problem with that is and
we're going to talk to Jackie
about this very soon water
behind this right. The problem
with that is that Israel needs
us funding. We need to know what
were are we funding Benjamin
Netanyahu? are we funding his
designs to stay in power? are we
funding an operation where we
have to look and guess Okay,
well, is this for the in the
best interest of Israeli people?
Or is it this in the best
interest of a Prime Minister who
deliberately focused on the West
Bank deliberately turned a blind
eye to this plan for a year, a
year where it's specifically
laid out? So I'm not so sure
that Congress and the President
want to approve even more money
for Israel? Until we know that
there's actually somebody
wanting Israel there it is that
even the Israeli support the
Israelis don't trust Benjamin
Netanyahu.
Adam Curry: I think this is the
way they want to manage this
crisis. Because you can't gene
change us You can't hate the
Jews but everybody can hate Bibi
that's an easy one being even
our own lives like screw Bibi
Netanyahu he's no good and now
it's like all we don't want to
be funding him. Yes, regime
change, which would make the
woke Israeli population very
happy.
John C Dvorak: This Yeah, this
is interesting, because we
already had Richard Haass, no,
this is a we know there's a
conduit between the Council on
Foreign Relations and this
stupid show. So this is just
this is the talking points from
the CFR Yep. We have to assume
that I think so. The talking
points are the souls of the CFR
wants to get rid of maybe for
whatever reason and this bull
crap with this report like oh,
and he kept ignoring it day
after day as like as though they
were shoving in his face every
single day and his knack get
that out of there. He looked at
it like a million other reports
you get when you're in a job
like that, and they come pass
your desk and Oh, that's
interesting. Oh, that's
interesting isn't different one
every day and they're all doing
different things. You choose one
or the other. And your guys are
supposed to tell you what's
important and what's not. And if
the head of the chief of
intelligence tells you this is
going to happen, you take it
seriously, but it's just some
random thing to go through. i
This is bullcrap. I
Adam Curry: think they can make
him the new Putin. He's he has
the face for it. Let's be
honest.
John C Dvorak: By the way, he's
looking like he's getting
getting time as you were
Adam Curry: getting tired.
You're tired. Like I didn't talk
like this.
John C Dvorak: So they're gonna
oust him in some way shape or
form and but
Adam Curry: also focus the
energy not on Israel but on Bibi
Netanyahu that is that's a way
out of this they need a way out
they be
John C Dvorak: phony baloney
report is a ruse is a great idea
yes
Adam Curry: that's there you go
that's our CIA sometimes the
whole report
John C Dvorak: could be both for
all we know could be bogus
everything he said we don't know
any of it to be true that he
kept ignoring the report lab lab
law we don't know that one thing
he says Scarborough borough said
we don't know that one. Any one
item is actually true.
Adam Curry: Oh, it's
unnecessary. We know that Russia
Russia Russia very perfect phone
call very fine people come on we
don't need that. It
Unknown: just repeats very fine
for my favorite
Adam Curry: that's repeated over
Dave Rubin tried to correct that
on he was on with Bill a Bill
Maher where
John C Dvorak: there's always
somebody trying to correct it to
no avail. Yeah, and he was on
with
Adam Curry: what's the old the
old coot the USMC, hoodie pink
hoodie wearing guy used to be
married to Mary matalin. Guy
Yeah, the bald guy. The old
Cucamonga ball old
John C Dvorak: fart. Yeah.
Adam Curry: Yeah. And he was
like, very fine people. And Dave
Rubin is like, well, you know,
he's and just everyone laughed
over him. Dave Rubin could not
could not could not get the
correction in. No, we're not
going to happen. James Carville.
Thank you.
John C Dvorak: Carville. Yeah
Harville Yeah, yeah, no,
Adam Curry: no no you can't even
under I couldn't clip it because
you can't understand you say
pretty much like that. Yeah, you
can't understand them anymore.
Can't Alright, so what clip Do
you have what clips do you have
about this? Well, I
John C Dvorak: got the update
the as of yesterday, update on
the on the whole thing. Of
course it's from PBS and so it
will have a certain anti Jew a
Jew hate slant, but it's okay.
This is the guys update. elitist
voices of America. This is NPR
where PBS
Unknown: tonight hopes for
another pause in the fighting in
Gaza anytime soon have dimmed
considerably. Israeli Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
ordered his negotiators home
from Qatar, saying the talks
there had hit a dead end since
fighting resumed at least 200
Palestinians have been killed
bringing the death toll since
October 7. That's more than
15,200 Those numbers from the
Hamas run Gaza health ministry.
Meanwhile, the focus of Israel's
renewed aerial bombardment of
Gaza has shifted from the North.
Yeah, in the snap pops,
Adam Curry: we gotta remind
everybody NAT pops that's what
you do as a video editor. Good
work, Israel's
Unknown: renewed aerial
bombardment of Gaza has shifted
from the north. In the southern
Gaza City of Khan Yunis, the
streets are engulfed in smoke.
The Israeli military has dropped
leaflets urging residents of the
city and the surrounding area to
evacuate further south but
beleaguered Gaza and say there
is nowhere to go. They seek
refuge wherever they can find it
like this makeshift camp outside
all Nasr hospital, settled them
in nearly flat
the North before coming here. We
went to various places. There's
no safe place in Gaza.
Our houses are gone. Our
property is gone. Our money is
gone. Some died some handicapped
in the hospital. What is left to
cry for? And then they tell us
we will get aid. Where is it? As
the wounded fill Oh, Nasr
hospital today that aid 50
trucks will according to the
Palestine Red Crescent Society
enter through the Rafah crossing
along the Egyptian border. The
first relief since the ceasefire
ended Friday. Yesterday, Israel
had blocked me from getting into
Gaza.
Adam Curry: It's interesting
that Sir Brian of London is in
Israel. He's been giving me his
boots on the ground. Yes. On
Friday, he sends me a text
message. He says well ceasefires
over rockets are incoming. But I
didn't hear anybody report on
that.
John C Dvorak: I heard one
report of rockets. But they
cease before the season was
over. Before it was over. They
started launching rockets. Yeah,
Israel. Yeah. Now the thing
about these reports and all of
them have the same thing. It's
the it's the Palestinian health
authorities that has the the
head counter the dead. What is
that all about? But they're the
Adam Curry: they're the
authority. The
John C Dvorak: Health Authority,
they're not the death authority.
They're not the government.
Well, the health they find it
peculiar that this one done
agency or who knows who they
are. This is got the death
counts, but they got probably
Adam Curry: some guy in an
apartment in London,
John C Dvorak: you know, to say
Same thing, like the Syrian
Adam Curry: guy, forget who that
was. Right? That was a girl. No,
no, no, it's the Syrian guy who
was the authority. And he was in
London and he's, he's making
John C Dvorak: it up as he goes
along. So okay, that's good.
Part two of
Unknown: Israeli Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu said the
fighting would not stop until
Israel meets its objectives. No,
she's blaming him.
We will continue the war until
we achieve all its goals, and
it's impossible to achieve those
goals without the ground
operation. The ground operation
was necessary to bring the
results until now, and it is
necessary to bring the results
moving
forward.
with hopes of a renewed
ceasefire dissipating. Vice
President Kamala Harris spoke
with reporters in Dubai group
laying out the Biden
administration's vision for
peace.
five principles guide our
approach for post conflict,
God's Gaza. No forcible
displacement, no reoccupation no
siege or blockade, no reduction
in territory, and no use of Gaza
as a platform for terrorism. We
want to see a unified Gaza and
West Bank under the Palestinian
Authority, and Palestinian
voices and aspirations must be
at the center of this work.
Adam Curry: Wow. Wow, waffling
much Wofully.
John C Dvorak: She has
absolutely no emotion
whatsoever. When she discusses
anything she just reads like a
Adam Curry: robot. Yeah, sounds
like it sounds about right.
She's an idiot. Unlike unlike
the emotion and the sportscaster
ish vibe of this CNN report,
Unknown: both Israel and Hamas
had indicated they were ready to
restart fighting if the
negotiations fell apart and if
the truce expired, and that's
exactly what happened right
around seven o'clock this
morning. We have seen the
skyline of Gaza. We have heard
the strikes the IDF is carrying
out in Gaza. So this war is very
much back on as both Hamas had
promised Israel carrying out
strikes and southern Gaza
according to authorities there
that is where they said they
would focus the second phase of
their operation. Meanwhile,
Israel has dropped leaflets in
parts of southern Gaza.
Interestingly, those leaflets
have a QR code that brings you
to a map with Gaza broken up
into very tiny partial teams as
if Israel tried to evacuate
these parcels of civilians along
established evacuation routes.
In an attempt to avoid civilian
casualties as the fighting
resumes at peace worth noting
the Secretary of State Antony
Blinken was just here. He said
Israel had to have a concrete
plan to protect civilians before
they launch the second phase of
their operation. Well, that is
now here. He also said Israel
needed a plan for more
humanitarian assistance, and yet
aid trucks outside of Gaza that
have already been inspected by
Israel. According to an
eyewitness on the ground there
have not gotten in since this
morning. So Phil, it is very
much a question of whether that
humanitarian aid has now been
cut off with the fighting
resumed.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, we know
that's not true because to
yesterday's report showed that
came through
Adam Curry: Poppy Harlow broke
it down for us.
Unknown: This hospital simply
cannot take more children with
the wounds of war. There are
children everywhere these
children are sleeping there was
a farm literally 50 meters from
here. This is a war on children
and war on children's stock
warrants from a UNICEF spokesman
as the truce between Israel and
Hamas has ended. He was speaking
from one of the last remaining
hospitals that is operating in
Gaza the Hamas controlled
Palestinian health ministry says
6000 children have been killed
in Gaza since the October 7
terror attack that's
Adam Curry: all you need to know
to war on children. That's it.
That's when it's a war on
children. And with that, I'd
like to thank you for your
courage in the morning to you
the man who put the sea and the
war on children ladies and
gentlemen say hello to my friend
on the other end the one and

John C Dvorak: Gary all over you

Adam Curry: did you see his
reply? No.
Unknown: They told me I'm sorry.
I didn't
Adam Curry: know that you
couldn't deconstruct the media
deconstructors or have an
opinion or make
John C Dvorak: this guy get rid

Adam Curry: not doing anything
of the kind. I'm okay. I'm
watching
John C Dvorak: he thinks he
thinks you're a big aihole Chris
he thinks I am now two because I
defended you.
Adam Curry: Thank you. I
appreciate that. No, I'm just
this is now a social experiment.
I'm just watching it devolve
into into mush it says who
chaos? Yes, people I used to try
and you know, manage it a little
bit tell people you know try and
calm stuff down. I'm not I'm
left to their own devices. Even
people who believe they're on
the same team of love goes just
there. Everyone is traumatized
and we're and everyone's yelling
and
John C Dvorak: one mining of
John Conway's The Game of Life.
A very early computer program
that came out in the probably
the late 70s. That was this
little it started these little
the game. It was a great it was
just regular old fashioned
screens before graphics came
along. And then these little
communities would crop up and
they would show you how they
grew and shrunk and grew and
shrunk and they never
stabilized. And they all went
extinct. And I'm reminded of
that when I see what's going on
there. Well, that's what it's
always going to be it reminds me
of the no agenda forums that was
lively and a great just went
extinct because it was they went
nuts. Now
Adam Curry: what happened with
no agenda forums, as they kept
saying, You need to post over
here, you need to participate.
And I was like, I got no time
for that. Well, you don't love
us. And I said Well there
John C Dvorak: was that what the
real killer for them was they
started their own podcast. The
rounds counter program was
Adam Curry: the rounds and it
was called the roundtable wasn't
it? I think
John C Dvorak: something like
that. Yeah. Yeah. And so they
were just as if this podcast
that nobody paid attention to
because just these No,
Adam Curry: that's not the they
tried to do a podcast about our
podcast every day or twice a
week and it turns out Oh, it's
really hard. Well,
John C Dvorak: actually that
that's more than another one yo
agenda was more along those
comic strip blogger. Yeah, yeah.
And his buddy had there's two
guys and they was yelling rouse
about our show. Yeah, and then
when the show that's when the
show first started and then when
it got like two hours long and
then it got harder. Yeah, they
Unknown: couldn't they couldn't
bailed out.
Adam Curry: We got which we
smothered them with love. No, no
What you should do this and I'm
a proponent of the troll room. I
think it's good for people to go
to troll room.io During the
show, go in there and go I hate
you. You suck because it's just
disposed off. And it goes away
and then yeah, I've been nothing
really happens. It's just this
good. You get it out of your
system. I think it's a really
that's that is the place to go.
Then and you also can't post
memes that's another good thing
about it. You know, it's just
text. So you have to be crafty
with words you know, you have to
have some talent talent. Not
really.
John C Dvorak: Anyway use NET.
Adam Curry: Now, what was the
what was the email system that
you went to the bulletin boards?
Remember, you would write an
email and then it would it would
upload and it would would that
was MCI Mail was no no, no, no,
no, no, no. It was through the
bulletin boards. It
John C Dvorak: was Isn't
CompuServe email oh
Adam Curry: no no before that it
wasn't the source no before that
it was It wasn't Fido next was
they don't add Yes, that's it.
Nailed it fight on it. Yes. And
you'd have to wait a day and
have to wait wait for the phone
lines to open up with a guy
would have a bulletin board with
five phone lines. You have a
demon Island to have a
John C Dvorak: bulletin board
back in the day you had to have
Multics number of phone lines
coming in. So you'd have to be
with hand 20 phone lines. This
is a good thing for the phone
companies
Adam Curry: what was all local
calls? You had to find a
bulletin board with a local
local numbers so you could be
because you know long distance
no one could afford it.
Especially not at 300 baud or
whatever we had. It was
John C Dvorak: 300 baud.
Remember those quickly went to
1200. So there you go. And then
Adam Curry: we got the Hayes
compression protocol.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, maybe and
his Hayes. Remember that?
Adam Curry: Good time. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: I do. Remember
all that stuff. Now I had all
that gear. Now
Adam Curry: I have five gigabits
per second fiber in my lifetime,
okay, meaning just because you
have two networks that don't
even get one in total. Apply. I
have two networks that both get
or not get you're getting one to
the local head end to the ping
you're not getting any any was
that's true with everything
right? So once you don't give me
this getting food, it's not that
it's not about the speed. It's
about the amount of things I can
have simultaneously. I can have
my tours and I can have my
Umbral at my start nine and we
can bring Yes, yeah, I see. Why
is that funny to
John C Dvorak: you? is funny.
Adam Curry: All right. We are a
value for value show. We
pioneered the concept. You know,
even you know even the noster
guys are now calling themselves
value for value. Yeah,
eventually will be forgotten.
Well, I think it's already
happened. I have a feeling well
wait way past that point. Yeah,
man, Jack Dorsey invented value
for value. That's how that went
bad. I started that company a
long time. Thanks, Jack at Jack.
Yeah, so we decided long ago
that the only way to be able to
speak freely is to not have
advertising or any corporate
interests or any anything that
that is other than than just us
and the audience which we never
called listeners. We decided to
call you producers because
that's what you do. You send us
clips you send us articles boots
on the ground your insights,
your knowledge. Sometimes even
your
John C Dvorak: by that we had
talking about that. We had like
I didn't I may or may not read
these today probably in the show
it coming up. We have at least
three people that I got email
from who work in the facilities
at these various water
facilities. Yes, I know all the
insight about designers is bold
crap. And they using you know
passwords, the default password,
the full passwords, and anyone
can hack in and there's no
reason is on the net. We have
people that do. That's why when
you ask for somebody who knew
about this insurance scam, it'll
show it will get it it'll show
up because we it's astonishing.
I have to say at some point is
astonishing. The people that we
have that work in every single
industry, I was talking to
somebody about the show recently
and they asked me well what are
we talking about? What's your
demo? He asked me
Adam Curry: what's our demo? Did
you Did Why did you kick him in
the shins and poke him right in
the balls?
John C Dvorak: So I said the
great thing about our show is we
have no demo yes little kids
stole men old women and
everything in between an
engineers and and everything
pilots I mean his preachers
everybody is astonishing the
demo
Adam Curry: Yeah. Every race
creed religion background
everything that yes, we have we
have a world demo telling
John C Dvorak: our world that's
probably easier on him than
kicking him in the balls
Adam Curry: well it's too late
now than me the guy never talked
to you ago and pissed off about
it. So the way that works is if
you get any value out of the
show and if you don't you got to
question your life because why
well you could be hate listening
could be hate listening. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: so are we do have
hate listeners. Oh, you know,
but a lot but we do have those
shows that I hate to listen to
by listen to regularly. Yeah,
you're a hate list or you got a
find shows you ate
Adam Curry: I know there's only
one show I hate. Then I listened
to by the way she's on TV now
she's on. She's on a Sunday CNN
panel show. I can't wait for the
clips. Oh brother is right. Led
by that x Fox guy. What's it
what's his face
John C Dvorak: with X for lunch?
Sanchez?
Adam Curry: No, no, the guy who
left Fox the fake If you're
famous dad what's his name?
John C Dvorak: Tucker Carlson.
Adam Curry: Other famous? No the
news guy. We went I'm leaving
this fox you Republicans? I'm a
liberal. Oh Shepard Smith. No,
no, no, no, no, no.
John C Dvorak: burn as many
names as I can. Chris Wallace.
Oh, Chris Wallace. That guy.
Yeah.
Adam Curry: He moderated and
carried his way is just
John C Dvorak: a well, it's dud
meets Duck.
Adam Curry: Duck meets dud. Oh,
gotta write that one down. Dud
meets duck anyway back to value
for value. So here's an example
of though it's a sad example
because Sir Paul couture created
the no agenda art generator for
us no agenda, art generator.com.
And he's maintained that thing
for well over a decade, we had
one before that, but it's it
really that is true value
because he
John C Dvorak: changed the
structure of it led midway
through me way. And you know,
there's overspend just smooth as
silk, over 24 25,000,
Adam Curry: always smoother. So
24 25,000 pieces of artwork,
this is where the artists
compete. This thing went, went
belly up, hardware failure, and
he has just been pulling his
hair out trying to get it back
online. So he has a temporary
page up, we got all kinds of
solutions. But the point is, we
never would have started that we
never, we would never been able
to afford to pay someone to do
that. You know, we would look at
the monthly bill and go and I
can hear you go and why are you
paying for this. And it goes for
all kinds of things. We have
never had to do any of that. All
we have to do is deconstruct
media and assemble a show twice
a week and we're so grateful
everyone that's value for value.
Yeah,
John C Dvorak: volunteerism is a
big part of it. That's not
something you can just do if
you're a commercial entity, no
selling ads, try invites. I
mean, our show invites
volunteerism we get we get
reports that are voluntarily
submitted, we get the artists
voluntarily done your we have
somebody doing the Art Generator
did it voluntarily. And so
that's what it's a big deal when
you can get a system together
that has a lot of volunteerism,
because you end up getting a
astonishing product until it
craps out. But obviously,
Adam Curry: it has its ups and
downs. This
John C Dvorak: downside? Yeah,
there's a downside. It's kind of
it's kind of quaint. No, it's
Adam Curry: like I like it
because we can't yell at
anybody. You know, if
John C Dvorak: you can't do what
you're gonna do. Working for
free. Yeah. Break
Adam Curry: if we dislike if
we've been paying for this, we
will like get that thing back
up. I can't believe it knows
now. Like, I'm not spun up over
it. I'm not mad or fired. I'm
not. I'm not mad, like, Oh, I
feel bad. I feel bad for Paul.
But he's trying to fix that. And
it's a pain.
John C Dvorak: I'm sure. It's,
it's a miserable situation,
taking him this long, no
Adam Curry: doubt. So with that,
that's the time and talent
portion. We also have the
treasure the three T's of value
for value, time, talent,
treasure, and we love to thank
our executive and Associate
Executive Producers right at the
top of our list. We always read
out the amounts we give the
notes that people have sent him.
And we are very inept.
John C Dvorak: We we call we got
to thank the artists for the
last artwork.
Adam Curry: Well, I don't know
who it was because I remember
you sent it to me. He said, I
don't know who did it.
John C Dvorak: But the artists
who did it, just send us a
notice. Hey, so we couldn't be
some credit here. So I
Adam Curry: can put your name
into the credits, which are just
empty because I didn't know who
had done that because it was
something you just collected. I
John C Dvorak: collected what I
Yeah, normally before I do a
newsletter, I go onto the Art
Generator and I find two or
three pieces of art that I might
want to use for the newsletter
and then I'll place it into the
newsletter and see if it works.
And that piece was rejected. And
or I'd used it I'm not I don't
remember. But whatever the case
is that so I always have a bunch
of pieces sitting in my files
that I
Adam Curry: just looked at your
email. You mean you email
yourself?
John C Dvorak: No, it's no I
don't know. I do it directly. I
do just save save images.
Adam Curry: Oh, right. Right
click Save image as nice. Yeah,
I
John C Dvorak: don't do any
emails like stuff
Adam Curry: slick. All right. So
yes, we'd like to thank our
Executive Associate Executive
producers and we start off with
a guy who has always been there
for us, usually about once a
month sir animus of Dogpatch and
Lois LeBeau via and T sends now
this is not an atypical number
for him because he likes to
dollar bills. He sent us a row
of ducks 2222 which I'm going to
presume was in cash and included
$2 bills at least one one cue
dollar bill. Yes. And he says
thank you to any always has a
typewritten note we have very
little idea about about this
pretty Mr. Schreiner must have
Dogpatch in Los Lobos,
John C Dvorak: other than
Bikkies anonymous, he keeps
himself Anonymous is
Adam Curry: anonymous and he is
a patron saint for us. Thank you
to all the producers, and
congratulations to the many that
now use the pronoun doctor.
That's a pronoun we stand
behind. And thank you to John
and Adam, for being effective
altruists, working on holidays,
finding the best use of your
remaining lives is to
deconstruct news and entertain.
Wait a minute, is he predicting
our doom here? Working on
holidays and finding the best
use of your remaining lives.
That's you and I, John, is to
deconstruct news and entertain
the dedicated producers. It is
good to see Americans fight the
effort to impose theological
beliefs into law by so called
conservatives, having a little
experience with countries
committed to conservative
theological law of laws of my
faith, implementing some of
these laws can cause even those
with strong morals to question
their interpretation. No, that's
deep. It's deeper than normal. I
think for Serrano, he's
John C Dvorak: must have been
given a parking ticket or
something I'm guessing in Saudi
Arabia, which comes with a
beating.
Adam Curry: John has often
referenced shanty towns as an
alternative to 10 cities. And I
would say you've promoted the
idea. Yes, I have the political
term at the time was Hoover
villes. Yes, under President so
John C Dvorak: that was in the
30s. But there's been a we've
hit, but worldwide is what I'm
talking. I'm talking about the
shanty towns that are that are
everywhere, but the United
States, not the hood hills.
Well, and he
Adam Curry: continues, but go on
Kara, with elections in the
offing. Perhaps they can be
named Biden towns or Trump towns
could work well, but the
incumbent usually gets naming
rights. No jingles, no karma.
But thank you so much on Mr.
Dogpatch. And Lois LeBeau. Via
you always have the best mute
cut right through it. Even if it
if it's cutting through us. We'd
love you for it. Thank you.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, who reveals
we're because they had this
homeless situation back in the
30s. And it was like, resulted
in these little is nothing like
today, as far as I can tell it,
looked into it to what we have
going on today in certain
cities, New York would be one of
them. Chicago, San Francisco of
old, they're not there. I know
what happened to them. And
Berkeley had a big town of
homeless under what happened to
them.
Adam Curry: Yeah, well, same

do their own thing. plumas up,

last on his short list of very
short donation lists today as we
expected after the promotion was

Washington. That's our group. We
have
Adam Curry: a we have a couple
of make goods and things that
need correcting. Three in total.
Sir Gary, who came in under 50
and did want us to read his
note. Sir Gary of Kasko point on
Lake Minnetonka here fantastic
show. This week I'm writing and
attaching a spreadsheet showing
these exceeded the level needed
as of December to become a
Baronet. If I may put in a
shameless plug for a noble
organization. I am State
Director for bugles across
America, at bugles across
america.org. Our sole purpose is
providing live taps free of
charge for any US veteran
funeral honor services. Oh,
beautiful.
John C Dvorak: By the way, this
I got this note. And I said,
Wow, this is a very famous
organization. And they did some
local stories about him. Yes,
that's exactly what they do.
They bring out the bugler and
they can give taps to the some
of these funeral systems. And
this guy is the head of it, I
guess. Wow. And I'm a stunt.
This is an example of the kind
of astonishing producers we
have. I mean, this is like as I
was taken aback.
Adam Curry: Well, I wouldn't
mind a little no agenda bugle
recording, honestly, something
we could play on the show,
John C Dvorak: especially after
a short donation segment. I
think taps would be appropriate.
I
Adam Curry: don't want taps I
just want some do like I want to
charge thing or whatever.
Anyway, our sole purpose is and
you're right. This is a very
famous organization providing
live taps free of charge for any
US veterans funeral honor
services. The military authorize
the use of a recording of tabs
for these events in the year
2000. Since then, our founder
Tom day and some 4000 volunteers
he has assembled take care of
this last tribute to our
veterans Oh, I sees the military
but we'll just do it we'll just
use a recording and they said
John C Dvorak: no, they gave one
here on my phone. Yeah. God
Adam Curry: bless you guys.
We're doing that. If you could
just give the website ask people
to remember when their veteran
passes on that there's good
chance that they will have a
recorded taps performance rather
than having a heartbeat behind
those sacred 26 Notes. Just go
to the website put in the date
and details and someone will
contact you and be there for
your veteran. That's not too big
of an ask. We we love that you
do that. Sir another website.
Well, I'd mentioned it three
times bugles across america.com
bugle a.org. Bugles across
america.org bugles across
america.org? That's bugles
across america.org Sir Not sure
it says Dear John Adams, donated
for show 1611 I want to express
the value I receive is
priceless. When every news

level in donations, which I do
believe makes me a baron. For my
title change. I would like to be
known as Sir Julian Baron of the
Santa Cruz Mountains of this
territory is available, John
available. Yeah, it's good. But
John C Dvorak: what was his old
name that he didn't like? Oh,

interesting. This is truly the
best podcast in the universe.
And I don't know where I'd be
without it. I'm grateful that
you to do what you do. You guys
always say that. Couples that
listen together, stay together.

right now. Because of me, I
would really appreciate all the
relationship karma I can get
right now. And he doesn't know
like, wow, this
John C Dvorak: is a bad thing.
Adam Curry: He has a note to the
love of my life. Babe. I love
you from the bottom of my heart.
And I don't know what to do
without you. I hope you can find
it in your heart to forgive me.
Julian forgiving Harmar I would
say he messed it up. Big time.

Yes. Yes. People are telling me.
I love the good news. Nobody's
John C Dvorak: done this. But
okay. It's true. Good news. This
is the good news clip for today.
It's about the dog named mage.
Unknown: Firefighters leaped
into action saving 100 pound
Great Dane trapped in a deep
hole. This happened off an old
south a road and Lake Wheeler
road. Tonight we talked to Majus
owner about the rescue mission.
This is mage in happier times.
And this was mage on Saturday
afternoon. The 100 pound great
game fell into an old well 50
feet.
Oh no call 911 right away. And
you know they come out but they
they don't have the they have to
call the right department that
has the right equipment. You
know, they had to bring that
tripod situation with all the
climbing harnesses and
everything to get down there.
Crews from carry fire fear view
rural fire and Swift Creek Fire
Departments responded. They used
a rope rescue technique. It took
hours and plenty of patience for
crews were able to lift the mage
out.
I don't know. But unscathed. I
just can't even believe it. It's
quite a drop and it is covered
up now, by the way completely
covered up. So yeah. You know,
part of me kind of wanders.
Yeah, part of me kind of
wonders, you know, did she fall
to save someone else?
So how did mage get down in that
old Well, we found out mage is
owners now Dean's recently
purchased a property and the
wells it's quite a distance from
the family home. They didn't
think it would be a problem. But
now they know differently. Mudge
is now home safely. And her
family couldn't be more thankful
for first responder.
They did all of this for my dog.
I mean, and she is part of our
family truly. So God bless them.
I mean, they were very, very
organized. When they showed up.
They had a plan. They knew
exactly what to do. Oh, I
was so happy for months now that
well was covered before with
barbed wire. The family has now
covered it with some rebar. So
it doesn't happen to anyone
else.

vibes for you and me and we all

know this is definitely part of
the Russian playbook. Russian

Russian, the Russian philosophy,
the Russian playbook will not

Russian playbook. It is part
of the Russian playbook. The
tactics look familiar like a
page from Russia's playbook
because of what he called Rush's
playbook on murdering people.
Clearly
Russia benefits the most from
this and it does fit the Russian

Russia Russia's playbook. But
what Putin is doing in Ukraine
is actually straight out of the
Russian military planners

authoritarian playbook. So
Ukraine is a country Russia is a
major country, Russia in the

Where if you take out Saddam,
Saddam's regime, I guarantee
that it will have enormous
positive reverberations under
Judas. You lie in DC
if you take away the Soviet
Union, and its chief proxy, the
PLO, international terrorism
would collapse.
Any other nations that you would
recommend that the United States
launch pre emptive attacks upon
at this point?
The answer is categorically Yes.
Is Iraq and Iran but third
nation by the way is Libya as
well Libya is trying very
rapidly to build an atomic bomb
