FEMA region number six. In the morning everybody, I'm Adam
0:25
Curry. Back on Refinery Row, where everybody's talking the same
0:31
words. World Cup Watch Party, I'm John C. Dvorak. Buzzkill
0:39
I got it. I gotta be honest. I am recording
0:41
all Dutch team and American team games. Oh, please. On
0:46
the YouTube TV. Yeah, of course. Of course. Why are
0:50
you really looking forward to that Switzerland Botswana match? Uh,
0:56
no, I said... I said Netherlands and American. games. I
1:00
didn't say Switzerland and Botswana. And those will be more
1:03
exciting. It's my teams, man. You can't be such a
1:08
hater. I'm not a hater. You are very much a
1:11
hater. You know, there's only what? Nothing. I said nothing.
1:17
There's only nine teams that have ever. won the World
1:20
Cup. Okay, and they are jerk. Out of, what, 130
1:24
countries? How is that fair? - What are the nine
1:30
teams? Germany. Well, let's start with Brazil, who has won
1:35
the most. They won five. Yes, they're good players. Uh...
1:39
And then you have Germany. Italy, Argentina, France. Yep. Uruguay.
1:46
Yep. They won two, actually. Yeah, they're good. They're good
1:50
players. England, they won one. And last on the list
1:54
is Spain. Yes. That's it. Yeah. So the Netherlands has
1:58
not won, so they're not. going to win the netherlands
2:01
usa can't win anything they stink what's the point the
2:05
netherlands has come in twice several times i think two
2:08
or three times they've come in twice i typically they
2:10
choke against the germans They look at those Germans and
2:14
go, oh, my bike. I choke, I choke. Well... We
2:19
had a miraculous comeback of the Knicks. Look at me
2:22
with sports ball. against the Spurs, which is my team,
2:26
of course, the San Antone Spurs. I mean, it's an
2:30
exciting sports year, John. It's fantastic. For people out there
2:36
who don't know what happened is that the The Knicks.
2:39
came back from 29 points down. That was amazing. setting
2:45
the record for the biggest comeback in NBA finals history.
2:49
Yes. And beat these guys. And the worst part was
2:53
that your San Antonio team scored 76 points in the
2:57
first half. And they were leading by, I don't know,
3:00
20-something going into the second half. And in the entire
3:04
second half. Joke! They scored 30 points total. It's crazy.
3:11
Is that not a lot? I'm not sure. That's one
3:15
quarter's worth of points generally in an average game. So.
3:21
We can move off sports news as to what's happening
3:23
right now on the quad screen. Of course, it happens
3:26
on a show day. The president has just canceled the
3:28
war. Uh, oil is droppin' like a rock! The Dow
3:33
was up 800 points. And we're just moments away, just
3:38
moments away from signing the deal. Uh-huh. And I think
3:43
this time it might be real. Ooh. It has to
3:48
be because Elon's going public tomorrow, so he doesn't need
3:51
any disturbances. So he picks up the phone. He's like,
3:54
listen. Listen, Donald. You know, take care of this for
3:58
me, for today, just for... a day only. If you
4:01
need to rekindle it, do it on Saturday. It's been
4:05
an interesting week. uh in regards to uh not so
4:10
much the helicopter stuff and all that but um The
4:14
president made quite a revelation. Which I cannot. get confirmed
4:21
for some reason the oil baron didn't answer this. It
4:25
was like we have a text group and I said,
4:27
hey, can you confirm this? And he just came back
4:31
with something else and didn't say anything. I thought it
4:34
was somewhat suspicious. And this is what I'm talking about.
4:37
First of all, I love the inflation. You know what?
4:44
Because as soon as this war is over, you know,
4:53
I can say it now. Something you didn't know. Do
4:56
you know we've been taking out millions of barrels of
4:59
oil? Nobody knows it. You know who doesn't know about
5:03
it? Iran, until right now. We took out the other
5:07
night 22 ships late at night with no lights. No
5:11
lights! Because we didn't have any radar because we blasted
5:13
the crap out of it. We took out this way,
5:17
oil's $85 a barrel. I mean, you take a look.
5:20
Remember when I did this, I said, look, the one
5:22
bad thing will be we hit the best economy we've
5:26
ever hit. And I said to my people, I had
5:29
Scott, I had Howard, I had Pete, I had all
5:31
of them. Bob, Paul, Anthony. I said the one thing
5:36
we have to do now, we had just hit the
5:38
highest stock market in history. Highest 401 case in history.
5:43
Everything was going well. And I said, I hate to
5:46
do this to you guys, but Rand's going to have
5:48
a nuclear weapon very soon. We have to go and
5:50
attack. So we hit him with the B-2 bombers. Yeah.
5:55
Took a lot of courage. It was totally successful. We
5:58
buried it very hard to get. Yeah. But now we
6:01
had to make the second move. And I said, you
6:04
know, the bad part is the stock market will go
6:06
down by a lot based on predictions of experts, like
6:11
25%. And it was worth it. To me, it was
6:13
worth it not to have a nuclear weapon. And the
6:16
other thing is that oil would go to $250 a
6:18
barrel. It's at 85. It wasn't at 85 when he
6:23
said that, but okay. Do you think this is true,
6:27
that they were slipping out ships and 100 million barrels
6:30
of oil? Well, it's hard to say because he did
6:34
that trick that one time where they said he gave
6:37
us a gift of eight ships. Remember that? Eight ships.
6:41
Yeah, yeah. And there was no evidence of that. Yeah,
6:43
well there's no evidence of this, but what is weird
6:45
is that the oil baron wouldn't respond to me. Maybe
6:49
he knows something. Whatever happened, happened at about 1.15 East
6:56
Coast time. AM. Because the market just rocketed up. It
7:02
took a huge turn, I know. Out of the blue,
7:04
one just spiked. Yeah. So somebody knew something. It's like
7:09
the Trading Places movie. Where there's insiders doing dirty business.
7:15
It's a classic. It's a classic. And... I don't know.
7:19
I don't know what, you know, this could be... I
7:22
think the thesis about Elon's IPO might actually be the
7:27
most valid thing about it. What was interesting is the
7:31
money, honey, she, of course, had the – she's not
7:35
always on the show anymore. Something's going on with her,
7:37
too. So Maria Bartiromo on Fox Business, the least watched
7:41
news channel in all history. except maybe for her show,
7:46
she had on the CEO of Axis Capital. And, you
7:49
know, so she played that whole clip and, you know,
7:51
then even let it run on longer for about three
7:54
minutes. And it turns out that they actually seem to
7:57
have the. part worked out as well. Access Capital is
8:01
at the forefront of the effort providing clients operating in
8:04
the region with protection for assets exposed to heightened threats.
8:08
Joining me now in a Fox Business exclusive is Access
8:11
CEO Vince Tizio. Vince thanks so much for being here
8:13
this morning. Can you talk to us a little about
8:16
that business in terms of providing that insurance to those
8:20
boats, those ships trying to transact through the strait? Maria,
8:25
good morning. Certainly. It remains a dynamic risk landscape and
8:30
environment. Indeed, the announcement last night by the president reinforces
8:34
the value of the industry providing protection to the maritime
8:38
space. There's over 20,000 seafarers in the region, and certainly
8:42
they want the assurance that as they transport goods and
8:45
services in the instance last night referenced by the president,
8:48
oil, that there's protection. And so it remains dynamic. We
8:52
remain a vibrant market in the geography, protecting our insureds
8:56
both in the Persian Gulf So just to be clear,
9:02
you're insuring those vessels that are handled and secured with
9:09
others' ships so that they can be transported through? For
9:14
sure. We have representation on any number of insurers. We
9:17
never reveal it. or countries of origin for protection for
9:22
them, What did you say? You need less protection for
9:33
them. It's protection for... Not for them, it's for you.
9:39
What do you mean? I don't understand what you're saying.
9:42
He says they're trying to protect, they don't want to
9:44
say what ships are to protect them. No, they're the
9:47
ones that did the insurance. Oh, well, of course. Hello.
9:51
Yeah. You don't want someone taking out something that's fully
9:53
insured. No, you never do that. remember Back when I
9:58
had helicopter money. The bank called me. Like, yeah, we
10:04
think you should probably have kidnapping insurance. I'm like, what?
10:08
Yes, and it works really cool. You get codes and
10:11
then, you know, so only with a code can this
10:14
be... Can this be uncovered? You can only give it
10:18
to your wife. I'm like, I don't think I want
10:21
your kidnapping insurance. Kidnapping, that's good. Kidnapping insurance. Makes sense.
10:26
Yeah. You were doing a lot of business in Mexico,
10:28
I guess. Well, there have been a lot of kidnappings
10:31
in Holland with wealthy people. Freddie Heineken was a legendary
10:36
case. They kidnapped the dude who had the beer. So.
10:44
It's not all that crazy. Well, they don't do it
10:47
in countries where they really throw the book at the
10:49
kidnappers. No, no. So obviously they're not throwing the book
10:54
at the kidnappers. No, it's Holland. You can murder somebody
10:59
and you're out after 20 years. It's real easy. They're
11:03
laid back there, man. It's cool. So you have anything
11:07
on this? Because all the other clips I had make
11:11
no sense now because, you know. The war is over.
11:14
I just have this striking stuff. I guess Trump strikes.
11:17
Yeah, but it makes no sense. It's over now. It's
11:21
done. Well, not necessarily if it doesn't follow up. Well,
11:25
we'll see on Sunday, but I don't think it makes
11:28
any sense to play anything. It's like, alright. Okay, well
11:31
that's fine with me. Yeah, let's just, uh... Let's just
11:33
talk about the World Cup! You know, the World Cup
11:37
is, uh... I've also gotten all these calls from Dutch
11:41
radio and television stations. Hey, hi, hoi. Yeah, we're going
11:45
to be in Dallas for the World Cup. Hi, hoi.
11:48
Hey, hi, hoi, toppy. Yes, that's how they talk. Hey,
11:50
hi, hoi, toppy. We're going to be in Dallas for
11:54
the World Cup. We'd love for you to join us.
11:56
It's a five-hour drive. I'm not coming to Dallas. Send
12:01
a jet. They don't get... Yeah, right. Send a jet.
12:04
Send a jet, man. They're, you know, it's a small
12:07
country. They think everything is like that. Yeah. They project.
12:11
But, you know, even if it was Austin, it's still
12:14
five hours. Like, come on, guys. Don't be so stupid.
12:17
Yeah, you're out. Yes. Tell him to come to Fredericksburg.
12:20
Why don't you tell him that? No, that's the last
12:21
thing I want. I don't want anybody here. You know,
12:24
that's a bad thing. When people have my number. Email
12:29
is one thing, but some people have my phone number
12:31
and they'll text me, Hey, we're going to be in
12:33
Fredericksburg this Saturday. Got time for a glass of wine
12:37
or a... A cup of coffee? It's like there's a
12:40
million people a year who come through Fredericksburg. It's like
12:42
living in Disneyland in Anaheim. It's like, no, I mean,
12:46
I work on Saturdays. I got no time for this.
12:50
You tell them. Yeah, I do. So it looks like
12:53
I owe you two bucks. Yes, you do. You do.
12:57
You doubled down, you went double to nothing. We got
13:01
a couple of clips on this, this mail-in balance. You
13:04
want to just explain the bets before? No. Yes, because
13:08
I need to savor this. I don't win often for
13:11
you, Mortimer. Well, what happened was, uh... I have somehow
13:19
wrangled some sort of a screwball bet. What do you
13:25
mean? Spencer Pratt was not going to become the... You're
13:29
the one that said, that's not true. I said they
13:32
will rig it. He will not be mayor. He's not
13:35
going to be the mayor. There's no way. And then
13:38
you went, you know what you're talking about. This is
13:40
how they think. They think differently. They have to let
13:44
them in so they don't think it's rigged. No, you
13:47
got that right. I was under the impression that they
13:49
weren't going to be so stupid as to rig the
13:52
election, but they started thinking about it. and Well, maybe
13:57
they think, here's what my latest thinking is. Because initially
14:03
I said, they're not going to be so stupid like
14:05
they do with... At least with Hilton they let him
14:08
in. But... They're not going to be so stupid to
14:11
do the same thing to Pratt because he's got a
14:14
lot of traction. He does these ads. He's fun. Mm-hmm.
14:18
But because he set a new standard for how to
14:22
market yourself in a campaign. They look at it and
14:27
go, you know, this is probably not a good thing.
14:31
Let's don't encourage it. Let's show that it doesn't work.
14:36
bumping. Now do you think Is there any... In any
14:40
realm, is there any possibility? that maybe people really like
14:45
the AI videos, but just not a lot of people
14:48
or not enough people voted for him? It's possible. I
14:51
mean, anything is possible. In fact, that's explained a little
14:54
bit. In this clip, you should play this. This is...
14:58
This is our buddy, Brett Weinstein. Oh. on election fraud.
15:03
All right. Hold on a second. Where is he? Brett
15:07
Weinstein. We're going to have an endless battle in which
15:11
those of us who see what we believe. Now, is
15:15
this on his own show or is he a guest?
15:17
I have no idea where this came from. from it
15:19
looks like his own show okay is clear evidence of
15:22
some kind of election rigging or fraud are faced with
15:28
uh indignation from a vast array of people portraying themselves
15:33
as more rigorous and careful who say where is your
15:36
evidence where exactly is your evidence that there was something
15:41
wrong with this election. And we are going to be
15:43
caught in the following predicament. No piece of evidence is
15:47
sufficient to establish that case. Wow, this is deep analysis.
15:52
And the sum total of all of the evidence contains
15:55
true things and false things. Yes. it is also no
15:59
good. So the question is, can you logically deduce that
16:02
something has gone wrong? I believe you can, easily. Can
16:06
you prove it? No. And not being able to prove
16:09
it means that the election will proceed, it will be
16:13
validated by all of the structures, including the courts, and
16:17
that means that... Those who take on the power that
16:20
derives from these elections will be the result of whatever
16:23
process we just went through, whether it was an election
16:26
that happened to be anomalous through organic means or it
16:31
was the result of some kind of fraud or election
16:33
rigging. That is not an accident. And the point that
16:36
I want to make primarily is primary evidence against elections
16:41
that look like this being organic is not actually in
16:46
the trickle of evidence that we are actually able to
16:50
see, you know, the, you know, moment by moment vote
16:53
count that does something strange during the night when some
16:56
large tranche of ballots is. counted or something like that.
17:00
We literally saw that. The evidence is in the structure
17:04
of how the elections are actually carried out. These elections
17:08
are designed to allow fraud that cannot be detected and
17:13
will not be prosecuted. And that's really the thing that
17:17
we must focus on. Yeah, okay. Can't wait to tune
17:20
in to hear him focus on it. This is kind
17:22
of what the pillow guy once said. He says you
17:26
can just look and tell that statistically it's not possible
17:29
what happened happened. Right. But you can't prove anything. Yeah.
17:33
It's perfect. It's the perfect crime. It is the perfect
17:36
crime. Before you. play your NPR clips. I'm surprised you
17:41
didn't get this. I got Gutfeld's reaction from his I
17:45
don't clip Gutfeld. You have, but I thought this was,
17:50
you know, a typical response. So the L.A. mayor race
17:54
is now down to two with Nithya Raman advancing over
17:56
Spencer Pratt to face. in November. Thanks to a delayed
18:00
vote count that surged like the estrogen in Tim Waltz's
18:03
veins. Okay, good line. So with Pratt out, L.A. voters
18:08
have a big decision. Do they want to live in
18:11
a hole or a hellhole? But as rotten as the
18:14
outcome is, don't you dare call it fraud. It's legal
18:18
since... the system is built for those who control it.
18:21
See, he's saying the same thing as Brett, only it's
18:23
a little funnier. A mail-in voting apparatus with a time
18:26
frame of a month to tally votes? Pretty convenient in
18:30
case you need a second place finisher that's a Democrat
18:33
so two Dems face off in the final. It's like
18:37
when Jesse tips a waitress using change. They'll keep counting
18:40
as long as it takes. So don't you feel like
18:46
an idiot for thinking Pratt had a chance when he
18:49
never did? No one does except those in control. The
18:52
system tells you so. Fact is, Pratt would not have
18:55
enough Republican votes to win, so he'd need a lot
18:58
of crossover votes. Maybe enough people were on the fence,
19:01
especially if that fence kept pantless junkies away from their
19:05
kids. But if you eliminate Pratt, you eliminate Pratt debating
19:08
Bass. It's not corrupt, it's just the way the system
19:11
is run by the people who created the system. The
19:15
truth is, Spencer had about as much of a chance
19:17
of beating Bass as does anyone who runs against him.
19:20
Putin or Kim Jong-un? No. Okay. Um... Maybe to play
19:26
the other side, Chris Hayes, who is still on Mrs.
19:30
Now. They keep that guy around forever. Chris Hayes. Wasn't
19:35
he the... The disciple of... surface. Rachel. Rachel, yeah. Yeah.
19:42
He's in her image. Exactly. You might have noticed the
19:47
big lie is back. The big lie. Truthfully, it never
19:49
went away. It's a big lie. Without evidence. Capital insurrection.
19:53
MAGA is pushing another. MAGA. Equal parts deranged and idiotic
19:57
election conspiracy theory, this time centered on California. That's how
20:01
they count the votes in California. You know why they're
20:03
doing that? Because they're cheating on the election. Do you
20:05
have evidence to support that? All I have to do
20:07
is look. They are still counting the votes. Do you
20:12
trust this election? That seems pretty shady to me. I
20:15
think California is playing around with this. But what evidence
20:18
is there to prove that there was a raid? Some
20:21
of these efforts are so diabolical and so far upstream
20:24
that it's impossible to prove. But I think everybody knows
20:26
instinctively something is wrong here. Something's wrong. No, no, no.
20:31
Not everyone knows it instinctively because there's nothing wrong here
20:34
with California's primary. They're counting the votes. They're counting the
20:36
votes, by the way, as our own Jacob Soboros has
20:37
shown, in a room with glass panels so you can
20:40
watch them do it. Oh, that does it. It's not
20:41
fraud. So he's just talking about the counting of the
20:44
votes, not the votes themselves. The case Republicans are making.
20:47
In fact, we have one of our producers. is one
20:51
of those observers in those big rooms. And do you
20:54
have boots on the ground from the said observer? I'm
20:56
getting one. I don't have the one that I want
20:58
to report on because I want to put it together.
21:01
in a concise way but he says it's pretty obvious
21:04
that everything that that is fraudulent takes place upstream. Yeah,
21:09
it's not in the glass box. No, the glass box
21:12
is just for show. Yes. With glass panels so you
21:14
can watch them do it. It's not fraud. The case
21:17
Republicans are making, it's impossible to prove, so trust your
21:20
instincts. is manifestly preposterous and absurd. But again, so was
21:24
Trump's big lie in 2020. Manifestly, I tell you. Manifestly
21:29
preposterous. Essentially identical. And look what happened. Look what that
21:33
led to on January 6th. Oh, careful. And this case
21:36
looks, to me, like it is setting the table to...
21:40
Uh-huh. invalidate midterm results in november if republicans perform as
21:44
badly as expected oh there it is there's the setup
21:48
The setup is there. Yeah. Oh man, how much longer
21:52
can we stand this? It's like Groundhog Day. All right,
21:59
let's talk about your mail-in ballots. you got from NPR?
22:02
Well, so I was, I noticed this is an NPR
22:04
clip about mail-in ballots and just two-parter. It's about how
22:12
it's... So impor- Excuse me. That's okay. Flem. So important
22:21
to have mail-in ballots that in these remote areas of
22:26
Alaska. So that you have to, you know, that you
22:30
wouldn't be able to get the vote in at all
22:32
if it wasn't for that. And it dawned on me
22:34
what NPR is doing. And I've noticed it elsewhere, too.
22:38
with some other reports on absentee ballots and the rest
22:43
is they take the most the most obscure, probably the
22:50
long shot, the most outrageous example to prove a point.
22:57
Instead of using the mean or the average or anything
23:00
in between. You find an outlier like Alaska, where there's
23:05
a village that's out in the middle of nowhere that
23:07
can't really communicate with anybody except a couple of days
23:10
out of the year. An Inuit village, yes. and you
23:14
make that that's what's your way that you have to
23:16
this is the classic liberal uh lowest common denominator thinking.
23:22
They love doing this. It's like, well, you know, we
23:25
got to do it because this little Jimmy here is
23:27
dumb, so everyone has to be taught the same way.
23:31
It's always something like that. And that's what NPR is
23:33
doing here. And I just found it really... Annoying. So
23:40
let's play. Clip one. Richard Moses is an Alaska-based campaign
23:44
and election lawyer who's represented parties involved in ballot recounts
23:48
and has seen the late arrivals firsthand. One of them
23:51
was from out in western Alaska, was postmarked prior to
23:55
election day and still arrived seven or eight days after
23:58
the deadlines. For those inside the U.S. Alaska allows mail-in
24:02
ballots to be counted as long as they are postmarked
24:04
by Election Day and arrive no later than 10 days
24:07
after a general election. But a Supreme Court decision could
24:10
change that. The court is currently considering a Republican Party
24:14
challenge to a Mississippi law that counts mail-in ballots similarly
24:17
to how Alaska does. In our court brief, Republicans... party
24:20
lawyers said that delayed counting violates federal law that nationally
24:24
sets an election day. Alaska's attorney general filed a brief
24:28
with the court that did not take a side, but
24:30
did explain the challenges Alaskans face when voting. Moses, who
24:34
has represented both Democrats and Republicans, says if the law
24:38
is struck down, it could affect Alaska significantly. We live
24:42
in a state where diphtheria serum had to be delivered
24:45
a thousand miles on a dog sled. Not that long
24:48
ago. Dog sled. Any change to the electoral process in
24:52
any way is going to be groundbreaking here. Groundbreaking. Oh,
24:56
this is great. Yeah, you're absolutely right. That's a great
24:59
way to frame it. Like, well, look, we have Alaska.
25:02
Dog sled. You need a dog sled. How are we
25:05
supposed to get the vote in? We got a dog
25:07
sled. Yes. This is like bull crap. But anyway, let's
25:14
go part two. Michelle Spark runs the nonpartisan effort called
25:18
Get Out the Native Vote. They operate under the Alaska
25:21
Federation of Native... which filed an image. They're going deep
25:24
with get out the native vote. This brief in the
25:26
case. They said discounting late arriving ballots would disenfranchise many
25:30
native voters in Alaska and other places. So it's racist
25:34
too. Native voters. This is good. Who are often in
25:37
remote communities. They know how to pile on. Yeah, it's
25:39
fantastic. Not good to mess with these things. especially during
25:42
an election year. Under the proposed change, voters could still
25:46
vote by mail. They'll just have to send their ballots
25:48
in earlier. But Spark says a lot can change in
25:51
the weeks before an election. When everybody has the luxury
25:55
until 8 p.m. on election day to make their decisions,
25:58
it's not fair to put the burden on us. Not
26:01
fair. soon as possible. If a change went into effect
26:04
before this November, Alaska political watchers say it could affect
26:08
the consequential Senate race between Democrat Mary Peltola and Republican
26:12
Dan Sullivan. Peltola faces headwinds in a state that went
26:15
to Trump by 13 points in the last election. Still,
26:18
analysts say many of Peltola's supporters live in rural areas.
26:22
that could be impacted by this voting change. In Platinum,
26:25
counting late arriving ballots is about more than just election
26:29
outcomes. It's about the principle of having a vote. Lou
26:33
Adams again. It's kind of disheartening. You want your vote
26:36
to be counted. That's why you vote. Practically Canadian. maybe
26:42
make a difference and they count your ballot. She says
26:45
the community is hoping to get a polling place. Until
26:48
then, voting will rely on boats, snow machines, and bush
26:52
planes. Yeah, that has very little bearing on the vote
26:58
for the Los Angeles mayor. I know, but let's just...
27:01
play dog sleds. That's good. Did you see the ActBlue
27:06
CEO? Testifying. I refuse to answer that question on the
27:12
grounds that it may tend to incriminate me. This was
27:14
so good. We've been talking about Axe Blue for... 10,
27:19
12, 15 years? At least. And not to forget that
27:24
there's the big red version, which I think was started
27:27
by Jared Kushner. Yeah, but it hardly compares to ActBlue.
27:30
ActBlue is pretty out there. You know, every single activist
27:33
website you see who's asking for a donation, that's the
27:36
first thing you do. Activist website, let me see. Donation,
27:39
ah, yes, ActBlue. Okay. But I just thought her. The
27:43
first question was all you really need to know to
27:46
know how the rest of the hearing went. I do
27:49
have a series of questions for you. But I want
27:53
to make sure I'm respectful. Is it Ms. Jones or
27:55
Ms. Wallace-Jones? on the advice of counsel, are respectfully declined.
28:00
answer the question pursuant to my fifth amendment I don't
28:05
know my name. I can't even say her name. That
28:07
was great. That was funny. She's so dumb. And whoever
28:13
that was, he asked and he knew, he knew what
28:15
the answer was going to be. That was a... Yeah,
28:17
once they got a clue... A quick... Yeah, and then...
28:20
Jim Jordan went on with, how much did Russia influence
28:25
the election? You're right. They started asking these questions that
28:30
may or may not indicate one thing or another. In
28:32
other words, the corruption of the Democrats. You could do
28:35
whatever you want. She just made it look like the
28:38
Russians vote Democrat. I mean the way it went. It
28:44
was fantastic. Ugh. So. This was, let me see, what
28:50
was this? This was two days ago. Everybody's phone in
28:54
Fredericksburg starts going off. I'm like... Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, alert,
29:00
you know, one of those. alerts like the orange alert,
29:04
the scarlet alert. F- Phone alert. FBGC Emergency Management. That's
29:11
Fredericksburg, Gillespie County. First screwworm case confirmed in Gillespie County.
29:16
Oh, that came on your phone? On my phone, yes,
29:20
yes. If you want more information, text SCREWORM to 38276.
29:25
I'm like, what is this now? So I look at
29:29
it. Did you text Screwworm? No, I did not. You're
29:33
like an idiot doing that. Gee, I did not text
29:35
Screwworm. No. And turns out... A screw worm was detected
29:43
in a goat. This is, I mean, this fear that
29:51
they're throwing out there. is pretty insane. Actually, we got
29:55
a note from... Brazil-trained veterinary... Juliana. And... She says, you
30:05
know, I got my education in Brazil. You know, the
30:10
new world screw worm rages. I'm specialized. And she gave
30:13
us everything that we knew. She says warm-blooded animals are
30:16
at risk, including dogs and cats. But then she says.
30:20
The Sterile Fly program was a huge success in the
30:23
USA. I was taught in my vet school. I was
30:25
sad to learn the USA is letting this plague come
30:28
back. Adam, please don't take this lightly. Keep an eye
30:32
on Phoebe. And I just wanted to say thank you,
30:35
Juliana. Just because we talk about... things that could be
30:40
horrible lightheartedly doesn't mean that we don't take it seriously.
30:44
People confuse that. We're trying to deconstruct media and have
30:49
a bit of a lighthearted attitude about it. I mean,
30:51
it's easy to go... Yeah, because most of it's... Bogus.
30:54
I mean, well, you could be here on fire. pets,
30:57
your dogs, woo! Yeah, we could do that. We probably
31:01
have more clicks, more likes, more downloads. We could put
31:04
ourselves on YouTube, on video. John, you could make a
31:07
face like, oh. So let's hear from the Texas Ag
31:12
Commissioner, Sid Miller. about what's not working and what has
31:17
always worked and that we should resort back to. The
31:20
U.S. cattle industry began sounding the alarm over screwworms when
31:23
they were detected in Mexico in 2024. The USDA has
31:27
been deploying sterile male flies to stop screwworms from returning.
31:31
But you're proposing something instead. What is that and why
31:34
is what the USDA is doing not enough? Well, what
31:37
they're doing is the same thing over and over again.
31:39
expecting different results. That's the definition of insanity. They're releasing
31:44
100 million sterile flies a week. Been doing that for
31:48
18 months. We've released over 7 billion sterile flies. Yet
31:53
we have more cases today than when we started. And
31:55
they've marched from southern Mexico 1,100 miles into Texas. in
31:59
New Mexico. It's not working, folks. We have a tool.
32:02
The USDA has it. They come up with it. They've
32:04
deployed it. They've used it in the past called the
32:06
SWAS system. That's Screw Worm Adult Suppression System. It's basically
32:11
a fly bait. You put the fly bait out and
32:13
pass it. It's killed from 80 to 95% of the
32:16
screw worm flies. You follow up with sterile flies. The
32:19
reason the sterile flies don't work is that they release
32:23
100 million flies, but half of them are females. The
32:26
ideal is to get the sterile male to mate with
32:30
a fertile female, and there's no offspring. Well, they don't
32:34
mate with the fertile females. There's a fertile sterilized female.
32:39
beside them so they just mate with each other. Maybe
32:42
one in a hundred thousand actually goes out and finds
32:45
a fertile female to mate with. So it's not working.
32:47
Why do you think the federal government doesn't want to
32:50
deploy the swast method? I've asked them. They don't have
32:54
a good answer. It's their program. It's not mine. The
32:58
very first time I brought it down. to Brooke Rollins.
33:00
She says it's environmentally insensitive. I said, what does that
33:03
mean? I don't get it. She said, well, it might
33:05
kill some good flies. I said, well, I don't know
33:07
what a good fly is, but let's say we kill
33:09
the good flies. You've got a billion-dollar fly factory. Let's
33:12
go make some more flies and turn them loose. Let's
33:14
do that. The number one thing is to eradicate the
33:18
screwworm flies. Damn gummit, that's how we think in Texas.
33:21
Dadgummit might take out some good flies. Don't take out
33:25
the flies that could be insensitive to them. I don't
33:28
know. This thing... That sounds... Actually, that rationale sounds correct.
33:32
Yes. This whole thing sounds hoaxy. Why are we doing
33:35
that? And how can you say the screw... How about
33:39
malice? thigh on that works yeah yeah walk the cows
33:42
through it How does a screwworm march a thousand miles?
33:49
I don't know. Very slowly. It's the cattle. They're moving
33:52
the cattle up through here. They're selling crap cattle. Crap
33:56
cattle. So did you guys talk about... The SpaceX IPO
34:01
on DH Unplugged. I haven't listened. We've talked about it
34:03
before. Yeah. Well, the new news... It doesn't make a
34:08
lot of sense to anyone who runs the numbers. But...
34:13
Well, not making a lot of sense because it's already
34:16
like overvalued. It's 4x oversubscribed. Last I looked. And this
34:22
is the thing that's interesting. I've taken a company public
34:25
and... Typical. Musk fashion, I guess. It's like, no, we're
34:30
not going to discuss pricing. It's $130 a share, no
34:34
matter how many people want it or don't want it
34:36
or whatever. That's pretty. That's pretty atypical for an IPO
34:42
where they price it and say that's going to be
34:44
it, not the pricing the night before. Especially if it's...
34:50
Well, that's the way it used to be in the
34:51
olden days. Well, in 96... I remember that we were
34:57
ready to walk away from the whole IPO. the night
35:00
before. because they didn't want to price it at $7.
35:04
Of course, it went down to $3.50 on the first
35:08
day. It was an awesome IPO. Great quarter, guys. It
35:13
took a long time to get it back up. But
35:16
I don't know. I mean, it'll be interesting to see.
35:19
Is this the big liquidity event, the exit for all
35:23
of the venture capital, the billions of dollars that have
35:26
been put into it? Or will people hold? Well, they're
35:32
going to hold it long enough until the indexers all
35:34
have to buy it up. And it should jack it
35:37
up a few points. And then we'll see what happens.
35:40
I had to get out as soon as I could.
35:41
Yeah. This is what you want. I mean, as soon
35:45
as I could after the index was all bought in
35:47
because the way it's set up is that. It's going
35:51
to have to be bought up out of the index
35:53
funds because it's going to be an index stock. you
35:58
And so they got to buy a ton of it.
36:01
And so that's going to prop it up. And it
36:03
should either go up enough that you can make a
36:06
little money there right at the beginning. And, uh... then
36:12
who knows what's going to happen. I think it's going
36:13
to collapse. Ooh! Not the first day, though. No, no,
36:18
I don't think so. It's got to spike. Well, Senator
36:22
Warren. Elizabeth Warren did something which I think is very
36:26
smart. She made a statement which she has nothing to
36:30
lose. If it's a huge success, no one will remember
36:33
what she said. But if and when it collapses, she'll
36:37
be looking like a hero. on SpaceX this morning. One
36:40
prominent senator now calling for an IPO delay. Our Eamon
36:44
Javers has that for us. Eamon, a 12-page letter here,
36:47
heavily footnoted. Yeah, good morning, Carl. This is a letter
36:50
from Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren to the Commissioner of the
36:54
Securities and Exchange Commission asking the commission to delay Friday's
36:58
SpaceX. investor protection concerns. She says market analysts have raised
37:12
concerns about the math underlying SpaceX's target valuation. publicly traded
37:19
companies are meant to be accountable to their shareholders. The
37:22
SpaceX IPO will flip this model on its head with
37:25
shareholders providing billions of dollars in new capital with no
37:29
accountability measures for Mr. Musk or company leadership. And she's
37:33
expressing concerns here about passive investors saying the SpaceX IPO
37:37
creates a new concern. But major stock market indexes are
37:40
being rigged in a way that would force millions of
37:43
investors in passive index funds, a generally lower cost investment
37:47
option that can be attractive to retail investors, to invest
37:50
in SpaceX and face exposure to SpaceX's significant risk with
37:54
no choice in the matter. So that from Elizabeth Warren.
37:57
political reality is that Donald Trump's SEC not likely to
38:01
take Elizabeth Warren's advice here on this IPO on Friday.
38:05
But I think it does signal some concerns out there
38:07
in the investing community. And if Democrats are to be
38:10
successful in the midterms, you could proceed some static for
38:14
the company after November. Guys, back to you. Well, since,
38:20
uh... Elon's a genius. We'll see. I think, here's an
38:28
out there prediction. I think before long. Elon is going
38:34
to find a way to leverage this IPO and buy
38:38
it. a company called Boom Supersonic. Is that the airplane
38:42
company? Yeah. That has the small supersonic planes? It's not
38:48
that small. It holds 100 people. Why would he... What's
38:52
the point of that? I think he's going to become
38:54
like Boeing. They want to be in the airline business.
38:57
Really? There's just a random thought in my head. Oh,
39:02
okay. Well, let's put it in the book. Do you
39:04
still have a red book? No, you don't have the
39:05
red book. Why are you not home, by the way?
39:07
You're at Jay's place again? Yeah. Why are they painting
39:10
at my place? Oh, no. That'll kill you. So the
39:14
big concern has been too big to fail. How are
39:18
we going to protect the poor 401k holders? um about
39:24
how we're going to protect our gdp and it seems
39:27
like that fear is coming true with the idea of
39:31
the united states government taking a stake in the ai
39:33
companies hi kelly so we are hearing that the us
39:36
government is Considering taking a stake in OpenAI, possibly other
39:40
AI giants as well, a source tells me CEO Sam
39:44
Altman and the Trump administration have been talking about this
39:46
idea for more than a year now. Altman first floated
39:49
this from what I'm hearing back in 2025 when Trump
39:52
initially took office. A source says that OpenAI would actually
39:55
donate a portion of its equity to a... possible AI
39:58
fund as part of this. Altman was on Capitol Hill
40:01
just this week. He was meeting with lawmakers from what
40:03
we're hearing, including Senator Bernie Sanders, who has pitched a
40:06
50% government stake in some of these AI companies. He
40:09
confirmed to CNBC that he and Altman talked about the
40:12
concept of a sovereign wealth fund in terms of investing
40:15
in AI. Much of this does mirror. What OpenAI has
40:18
said publicly already back in April, it did pitch a
40:20
handful of solutions to try to spread the economic benefits
40:23
of this technology and let Americans participate in AI's financial
40:27
upside at a time when there is real anxiety around
40:31
widespread job loss. The government, though, has a recent track
40:34
record when you look at recent direct equity stakes and
40:36
other tech... companies. You have Intel, IBM, Global Foundries, other
40:40
critical mineral companies, plus some quantum companies as well. Worth
40:44
noting, though, governments around the world are actually already invested
40:48
in OpenAI and Anthropic through their own sovereign wealth funds.
40:52
You have MGX out of Abu Dhabi and then the
40:54
UAE fund. There are also some state... funds that own
40:57
blocks through venture capital firms. So there's sort of a
41:00
precedent for this on a global scale. It's fun to
41:04
watch the other tech CEOs kind of flipping out a
41:07
little bit. Is Palantir stock still rocketing or is it
41:10
diving? I don't know that it's diving. I think it's
41:14
doing okay. I haven't looked at it for a while.
41:16
You know that crazy guy, Alex Karp, the CEO, who
41:20
looks like a mad scientist? Yeah, mad scientist. So it
41:23
sounds like he's really afraid that these, you know, of
41:28
course the promise of AI is it can recreate everything.
41:30
You don't need your tech software. You don't need anything.
41:35
It's going to make everything for everybody and all these
41:37
other companies will not be necessary. And he did an
41:40
interview on CNBC and he sounded... scared or nervous, just
41:44
weird. Because I think the biggest question around Palantir right
41:47
now on Wall Street is whether the large language models,
41:50
the anthropics and the AIs, which are about to go.
41:52
The anthropics and the AIs, come on. Come on, man,
41:55
don't do that. There's only three companies. Public. Can replicate
41:59
what you're doing. You know what? it's a real question
42:03
that no one in enterprise factually is worried. Investors are
42:08
really interested. Short term have no idea what they're talking
42:11
about. Long term end up being right. We will just...
42:14
debate this with the facts. I've spent all my life,
42:19
for better or worse, dealing with the most complicated, most
42:21
interesting enterprises. I'm on the ground floor in that, probably
42:25
like no one else. And they don't, you're saying? I
42:29
mean, most of them are chillaxing over their latte, reading
42:33
a report about something that they don't understand. They're idiots,
42:35
I tell you. They don't know what they're talking about.
42:39
But they're hiring the kind of engineers that you have.
42:43
And those kind of engineers are great engineers. And I'm
42:46
telling you, they don't talk to the enterprises or don't
42:49
understand the technical challenge. And also, by the way, the
42:52
ability to be a great investor in the kind of...
42:54
That's where large language models are more useful because it's
42:58
probabilistic and you don't have to get better than really
43:01
51%. If you want to manufacture a car and you
43:04
need a part or you want to send a rocket
43:06
to the moon or you want to put a missile
43:07
on your adversary's head and bring home Americans safely, you
43:11
use Palantir. That stuff doesn't ship. And by the way,
43:16
and there's not a single... If you want to put
43:18
a missile on your enemy's head, you call me. ...an
43:21
enterprise like that that would ever put... By the way,
43:23
that's before you get to the cultural impasse. Like, when
43:27
you go to San Francisco and talk to them, their
43:30
basic vibe is, we don't have to solve your problem
43:32
today because tomorrow you're going to go away. and all
43:35
of your problems are going to be solved. It's largely
43:37
religious. And then you get to, we're going to replicate
43:41
Palantir by doing a deploy code. I mean, it's a
43:43
complete farce. Like the people who go there to solve
43:45
the simplest, easiest problems that sell tokens. And the part
43:50
they don't understand, honestly, and I told them this, I
43:52
probably shouldn't, is... They don't understand how unlikable they are.
43:57
They're no good. Well, he's right about the unlikable. Yeah,
44:02
totally. Totally. Yeah, Palantir's still hanging in there, $130 a
44:08
share. Yeah, I just saw it. It's looking pretty good.
44:11
You know, people think that Palantir is like this box
44:14
that does everything. They didn't even have AI in their
44:18
box until this stuff came along. It's just a big
44:21
database. Yeah. What do you need? Well, Palantir, you know,
44:26
all the data centers, they're going to collect all of
44:28
our information. And then we're going to be living in
44:31
a panopticon. I think what he's worried about, if he's
44:35
worried at all, is that if these things start to
44:38
fail, this may be the triggering mechanism for a huge
44:41
correction that dropped the stock to under 100. Or less.
44:46
Or drop it down to God knows what. Yeah. It'll
44:50
be interesting. I... I don't know about... See, the hedge
44:55
that Elon has is he's got more than just XAI.
44:58
You know, he's got the space stuff in there. He's
45:02
got the satellite stuff. Yeah, the satellite company. And he's
45:07
selling his compute. to the other guys. I think he
45:12
may actually do okay. It's open AI and anthropic. Those
45:16
are the ones that will be interesting to see. but
45:18
I guess they're gonna wait. see what happens. I think
45:22
those are going to come out next week or the
45:24
week after or something. Really? Really that fast? Oh, man.
45:27
Well, I thought they were all coming out at once,
45:29
more or less. I don't know. And then Google's asking
45:32
for some money. Yeah. as if they need it well
45:35
we know they need the 40 billion half of it
45:37
they need for compensation That's why they need the money.
45:40
Yeah, that's right. You gotta pay. All the promises. They
45:44
got some problems over there. And then, oh, well, Anthropic
45:49
is doing their marketing. Yes, here we go. Remember that
45:52
mythos model? so scary we couldn't release to the public
45:56
we had to only give it to a few partners
45:58
we have some breaking news on it's always breaking news
46:01
tropics speaking of ai and maybe speaking of token maxing
46:04
kate rooney has the story hi kate hi kelly so
46:07
anthropic just rolling out a mythos level ai model to
46:11
consumers that is the important part of that sentence Why
46:15
the laptop? If you haven't heard of Mythos, this is
46:18
Anthropic's buzzy cybersecurity model. It had only been available to
46:21
a select handful of companies. It rolled out back in
46:24
April. At the time, Anthropic said it was an ultra-powerful
46:28
technology that Excel was finding. Decades-old security vulnerabilities. It was
46:32
essentially too powerful, they said. and risky to put in
46:35
the hands of the general public. It got a lot
46:37
of attention on Wall Street and the Trump administration as
46:39
well. It is now widely available. It's not called Mythos,
46:43
though. It is called Fable 5. It's the same underlying
46:46
technology, though. As Mythos Anthropic says, there are more safeguards
46:50
involved, especially around things like biochemicals and cybersecurity. speak to
46:54
Diane Penn over at Anthropic. She likened this rollout to
46:58
a credit card. I think this is an easy way
46:59
to understand it. Certain people have certain spending limits and
47:02
then there are additional verifications for enterprises that might get
47:05
a higher spending limit. So you can think of that
47:08
in the context of mythos. Penn told me they want
47:10
to be intentional. Did you understand the analogy? What is
47:12
she saying? I don't know what she's talking about. babbling.
47:15
I think what she's saying is that they have to
47:18
still pre-approve you to use the Fable 5. Who comes
47:21
up with these code names? Bull of crap. You know,
47:24
Gary Marcus, the guy who had a tip of the
47:27
day. Thank you for that. I've been reading his sub
47:30
stack. Yeah, his thesis, he says, look, here's what these
47:33
guys do. First they come out and they, because they
47:36
got a new version coming out, so they say, we
47:37
can't release the version because it will destroy all mankind.
47:41
We don't know what to do. And so the news
47:44
media picks that up and they go, oh, this is
47:47
going to be terrible. And then they end up releasing
47:50
it like a month later and then the news media
47:52
picks it up and says, oh, just what the... The
47:54
clip you're playing, actually. Oh, they released the crazy thing
47:58
that could destroy all mankind. And then they do the
48:01
same thing over and over. Every six months, they'll pull
48:04
the same stunt. And it works every time because the
48:08
slow news cycle. I don't know. People are bored. They
48:11
have nothing better to talk about. That's all they have.
48:14
That's all they have. It's what the news does, you
48:18
know. The World Cup is kicking off. That'll change the
48:22
news cycle. Yeah. Watch party. You'll love that. Meanwhile, what
48:27
has been long expected in Europe is happening. With the
48:32
beheading. Of a citizen of Ireland. Well, they didn't quite
48:36
behead him, did they? Well, attempted beheading him. He didn't
48:41
have a knife big enough, but it's kicking off. Homes,
48:45
cars, and a public bus ablaze on the streets of
48:48
Belfast. People forced to flee as firefighters battle the flames.
48:53
while political leaders try to dampen the anger that sparked
48:56
the destructive protests. Many people are feeling angry and many
49:00
people are feeling deeply distressed, which is entirely understandable. First
49:05
Minister Michelle O'Neill has addressed the knife attack that's left
49:08
a man in his 40s with serious injuries to his
49:11
face, neck and back. And the response that's followed. People
49:15
are feeling a bag of emotions about what they have
49:17
witnessed. But my message today is one of calm and
49:20
don't allow those people that don't care about people here
49:22
to incite hatred, to incite fear. Don't allow those people
49:26
who are faceless to orchestrate campaigns and on the streets.
49:29
A Sudanese man who was granted refugee status. after arriving
49:33
in 2023, has been charged with attempted murder over the
49:37
Belfast attack, but police are still trying to determine a
49:41
motive. Police Service of Northern Ireland Chief Constable John Butcher
49:45
is urging the masked youths gathering around the city to
49:49
stand down. Please, please. Let the police do their job.
49:55
Unfettered and undistracted by wider concerns there may be about
50:00
disorder. Man, let the police do their job? Really? That's
50:05
exactly what everyone saw them doing with the... um With
50:11
the kid who was dying. The violence in Northern Ireland
50:15
follows... You're stabbed. No, you're not stabbed. The violence in
50:17
Northern Ireland follows trouble in the city of Southampton in
50:21
England last week. Arrests were made there after police were
50:24
criticized for handcuffing a dying white man who'd been stabbed
50:28
by a Sikh man. He wasn't. an immigrant, but he
50:32
was born in Britain. He had falsely accused his victim
50:35
of racism. The arrest was filmed and widely viewed online.
50:39
I asked our UK political correspondent, Rob Watson, why immigration
50:44
is such a hot-button issue in the UK. Why? Really?
50:49
Why? We can't figure... I'm from the BBC. I can't
50:52
figure it out. I don't get it. What's happening? very
51:11
hard to see these videos without having a strong reaction
51:15
of horror sadness anger depending of course on the kind
51:19
of person you are and so what does that mean
51:22
depending on wait a minute what kind of cold-blooded asshole
51:26
what action of horror sadness anger depending of course on
51:30
the kind of person you are And so what that
51:33
has done is that it's sort of brought this simmering
51:36
concern about immigration and social cohesion very much to the
51:41
fore. And it is extraordinary that before these two videos
51:45
even, if you look at the polling, it does strongly
51:47
suggest the concern about immigration, not just illegal immigration. or
51:52
about refugees or asylum seekers is actually now a more
51:56
important issue for British voters than even the economy, which
52:00
is pretty extraordinary. Yeah. Oh, yes. Very, very extraordinary. And
52:05
here's... That's very extraordinary. Now, this won't affect Keir Starmer
52:09
at all, I don't think, but... His message is not
52:13
what people want to hear. Mr. Speaker, people are rightly
52:16
sickened by the horrific attack on Monday night in North
52:19
Belfast. As you have just said, the man arrested has
52:23
been in court in Belfast this morning and charged. I
52:27
want to thank the Police Service of Northern Ireland and
52:30
other first responders. and members of the public who responded
52:33
with such bravery. And our thoughts are with the evicted.
52:39
But let me be clear, Mr. Speaker. The acts of
52:42
violence and arson that followed are totally unjustified. This morning
52:49
I spoke with the First Minister. the Deputy First Minister
52:53
and the Chief Constable. And the Secretary of State for
52:56
Northern Ireland is meeting leaders in Belfast today. We are
53:00
united in calling for calm. and determined to restore order,
53:05
support the police and all those on the front line,
53:09
and ensure that justice is done. Ugh. This is not
53:13
what people want to hear. This is going to happen
53:15
all over Europe eventually. The Irish, they're just, you know,
53:19
they're primed for that. That's part of their culture. But
53:23
it's bound to happen. Every single time this takes place,
53:28
now people are going to come out. Start burning homes.
53:31
It's not lessening by any means. No, it's not. But
53:35
how crazy are these European and, well, I'll just say
53:39
European, UK. Representatives. They're stupid. It's all part of the
53:48
global elite. globalist agenda. Yes. Meanwhile in Texas... My, uh...
53:58
What? Tries to get away from it. My, uh... Except
54:02
in Trinidad, my septic guy just texted me. Here's how
54:07
we work in Texas. You know, he checks on the
54:09
septic system every six months. Please have all trip mines
54:13
and explosives secured and disengaged as we'll be on the
54:16
property shortly. That's Texas. Yeah, I got you. And he's
54:22
serious. He means it. Love that. Alright, so I got
54:29
a couple of offbeat things here. I have one clip
54:32
that about Scott Pelley, as we talked about last show,
54:36
was fired. Yes. And so the New York Times, there's
54:40
one woman who does these interviews called The Interview. And
54:44
she's good because she's pretty objective and she's... Isn't that
54:47
Lulu? Isn't that Lulu? Yeah, maybe. I think it's Lulu.
54:50
I think it's Lulu. Yeah, the Lulu. She sees everybody
54:55
as full of crap and she kind of, without overdoing
54:59
it, she's really quite good at it. And she lets
55:02
Peli go on and on. He does this for about
55:05
an hour, and he's crying. Yeah, I know. He's moaning
55:07
and groaning. He's crying about the daughter of, what is
55:11
it? Some reporter. No, was it like the granddaughter? of
55:18
who was the big CBS guy? Oh, Palin, or not
55:22
Palin, but Paley. Yes. No, Cronkite. Cronkite. Wasn't it Cronkite?
55:29
Yeah, somebody, or one of them. There was some, yeah.
55:31
And she worked there for a while, and she got
55:34
fired, and oh my God. Anyway. Here's the bottom line.
55:37
You become a journalist. because of democracy. That's the message.
55:45
I got this one clip out of the whole, I
55:47
mean, I could have clipped quite a bit, but I
55:49
thought this was interesting. This is a clip where he
55:52
he says one thing and within within 60 seconds of
55:58
saying it he contradicts himself And he's talking about... Oh,
56:04
yeah. As soon as Bilton showed up, he looked at
56:06
the memo and he says, oh, they're going to fire
56:09
all of us. They're going to fire all of us.
56:11
And then within 60 seconds he says, I was stunned
56:15
when I was fired. They wiped out a large number
56:18
of people. One of the things Nick Bilton said in
56:21
that ill-fated email to the staff was that he was
56:26
excited to tell, I'm paraphrasing here, he was excited to
56:30
tell the staff. about the new crop of correspondence. And
56:36
when I saw that, I thought, okay, they're going to
56:39
fire all of us. Eventually, that's the plan. He put
56:43
it in writing for all of us to see. And
56:46
so that's why I use these admittedly for a journalist.
56:51
hyperbolic terms, they capture the scale of what happened. You
56:56
then do have a meeting with CBS leadership after this
57:02
very contentious... interaction. Can you tell me about that meeting
57:08
and if you were at that point? going in expecting
57:12
to be fired? Oh gosh, furthest thing from my mind.
57:16
It hadn't occurred to me. That's good. I have two
57:22
clips. What a doofus. Well, it gets even better here,
57:27
Mr. Journalist. Um... About the bias that specifically Barry Weiss
57:36
wanted to insert. Oh, yeah. Can I give you a
57:39
little background error before you play the clip? He goes
57:43
on and on about she's trying to put her thumb
57:45
on the scale, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and she
57:47
made these suggestions. And they implemented none of the suggestions
57:51
that Barry Weiss suggested. And then there was no pushback
57:54
at all. So what's the big deal? She tries to
57:58
get that out of him, but she can't do it.
58:00
Right now. CBS News, in my view, is on fire.
58:06
It's on fire! This is Morning Joe with the music
58:10
and everything. They had a bunch. to it is great.
58:13
This morning, the new interview. Scott Pelley speaking out on
58:17
camera for the first time since his firing last week
58:20
from the iconic CBS News broadcast, 60 Minutes. It's like
58:24
your spouse was murdered. What? The mood among the 60
58:27
Minutes staff is... I've been fired. Have you ever been
58:31
fired? You've been fired. Yeah? Did it feel like your
58:34
wife was murdered? No, not really. I think that would
58:38
be a little more traumatic. I think so too. Word
58:40
that several of my sources have used with me. They
58:43
feel demoralized, dismayed. Pelley dismissed following a reportedly contentious meeting
58:49
with show staff, accusing newly installed executive... of having slender
58:55
qualifications. And then CBS News editor-in-chief Barry Weiss was murdering
59:00
60 Minutes after several top correspondents and producers were let
59:04
go. It was the wholesale nature of it. ARB. senior
59:09
staff wiped out, we had a triumphal year. So this
59:12
is incredibly... Difficult to understand. A triumphal year? What do
59:18
you mean they had to read, they had to take
59:20
back interviews that they... edited deceptively. What was the triumph
59:26
they had? Their numbers were up. Oh, numbers were up.
59:29
Pelly also saying Weiss tried to have him insert. bias
59:32
and falsehoods into a story. This is my favorite. Listen
59:35
to the journalist giving multiple notes on a report about
59:38
the killings of American citizens, Renee Good and Alex Preddy
59:41
by federal immigration officers. Two of the things in the
59:44
email include. Can we make the protesters look more violent?
59:50
Okay, so in the email... Two of the things, one
59:54
was, can we make the protesters look more violent? Now,
1:00:00
I'm paraphrasing. What? I don't have the quote. What? But
1:00:03
that's what was communicated to me. Where's the email? I
1:00:08
would have that printed out in my pocket. He's paraphrasing.
1:00:13
So what did it actually say? This is not journalism.
1:00:18
I find that egregious. I kind of miss that. That's
1:00:21
good. Yeah. It's like, what are you doing here? You're
1:00:25
doing a lot of paraphrasing. Yes. And the other thing
1:00:28
was, Rene Good's car, you need to... I'm paraphrasing. That
1:00:42
episode of 60 Minutes. came within 19 minutes of not
1:00:49
making air. You know, this is a guy... who's been
1:00:53
at the company for a long time. And long before
1:00:57
Barry Weiss, he didn't feel valued. You couldn't tell. It's
1:01:01
just like no one cares. No one values the important
1:01:04
work we do, our honesty, our integrity. No, no, change
1:01:08
it from we do to I do. Yeah. Well, yes,
1:01:12
to I. This was a guy. This is the guy.
1:01:14
He just felt undervalued, and here's the final clip to
1:01:17
prove it. In a statement, a CBS News spokesperson telling
1:01:20
MSNOW, Weiss's points had no political motivation and were proposed
1:01:25
solely to make the piece as strong, fair, and accurate
1:01:28
as possible, as is frequently the case in any news...
1:01:31
Not everything she raised made it into the final piece.
1:01:39
To see this as the system working. She had notes.
1:01:43
You felt they didn't make sense to take. The piece
1:01:46
ran and there was no retaliation. Well, it was the
1:01:51
interference that's the problem. What interference? It was interference and
1:01:57
pushing back. Like, you can't, you stupid sub-stacker. You can't
1:02:02
tell me what to do. I'm Scott Pelley. The bigger
1:02:06
problem, Lulu, frankly, is not any kind of... Political influence.
1:02:13
Oh. The problem was... Well, this is what we've heard
1:02:15
over and over again, that this is Trump's channel. The
1:02:18
incompetence. In the interview, Pelley emotional, talking about the treatment
1:02:22
of his colleagues. He also responded to President Trump calling
1:02:26
him stupid and a stiff and saying he doesn't care
1:02:29
about the country. You become a journalist. because you love
1:02:31
the country. No, no, I got to disagree with that.
1:02:36
You do not become a journalist because you love the
1:02:39
country. What was his first journalistic job? We can find
1:02:44
out soon enough by looking him up. Yeah, look him
1:02:47
up. That's the book of knowledge. That's a good idea.
1:02:49
Hold on a second. A book of knowledge. What was
1:02:53
Scott Pelley's first job in journalism? I hope it's something
1:03:00
good. It'll be lame. According to the Book of Knowledge,
1:03:04
Scott Pelley obtained his first job in journalism at the
1:03:08
age of 15. as a copy boy for the Lubbock
1:03:11
Avalanche Journal in his hometown of Lubbock, Texas. Nuh. It
1:03:17
has been written. So he was a copy boy because
1:03:20
he loved the country. That's why he got into it,
1:03:24
man. And while all the other descriptions that the president
1:03:28
used about me might be applicable. That one. Got that
1:03:33
one. There is no democracy. without journalism. Really, Scott? Is
1:03:42
that really it? There's no democracy without journalism? How about
1:03:47
First Amendment, maybe? I don't know about journalism. Lesley, Saul,
1:03:54
Bill Whitaker, and John Wertheim confirmed in a memo to
1:03:57
their colleagues they would continue on the show for now,
1:04:00
saying, quote, "We don't want to see 60 Minutes die."
1:04:11
to respect it. Yes, sure you will. We'll walk. Yes,
1:04:14
we'll walk. Exactly. Ah well. You know, there's a time
1:04:20
for coming, a time for going, Scott Pelley. Just happens.
1:04:28
Um... Of course. No, no, no, no, no, no. The
1:04:34
Pelly Pod. Oh, you're right. I'm just like, what am
1:04:37
I thinking? What's wrong with you, man? Yeah, you already
1:04:40
came up with that last show, Pelly Pod. No, we
1:04:43
talked about it after the show. Oh, Pelly Pod. The
1:04:46
Pelly Pod. It's going to be the Pelly Pod. It'd
1:04:48
be great. Yeah. Yeah. All right. There's a couple other
1:04:53
things. What do you got in your screwball clip? Here,
1:04:56
I'm going to play it. Can I just flag something
1:04:58
for you? Please. Last episode and this episode. At least
1:05:02
four times you say, I got a couple of screwball
1:05:04
clips. Just say it's clips. They're good clips. It's not
1:05:08
screwball. Am I? you overusing the word screwball? Yeah, a
1:05:12
little bit. Is that what you're accusing me of? I'm
1:05:15
flagging it. Well, I think you're correct. Okay, so what
1:05:21
kind of clips do you have? No, I feel bad.
1:05:24
Don't feel bad. Screwball is a show title. Well, I
1:05:27
have the whatever girls, which is always good for a
1:05:30
laugh. Oh, brother. Here we go. No, I don't want
1:05:32
to play that. All right. Let's do some serious clips
1:05:38
because we need updates on Artemis. Oh, yes. No chicks.
1:05:43
Starts with an R. Artemis with an R. Yes. Okay.
1:05:47
Got it. What do we know about this crew? and
1:05:49
this historic mission what they're going to be doing. Yeah,
1:05:52
so let's talk about the mission first. I mean, this
1:05:54
is a bridge between that Artemis 2 mission from just
1:05:57
a couple of months ago that flew around the moon,
1:06:00
didn't land on the moon, flew around it. First time
1:06:02
astronauts had been in the vicinity of the moon since
1:06:04
1972. And then the mission after this upcoming one is
1:06:08
going to be a landing on it. This is a
1:06:10
test. where they're going to take that Orion spacecraft and
1:06:13
they're going to dock with the two lunar landers, the
1:06:15
spacecraft that are actually going to ferry the astronauts to
1:06:18
the surface of the moon and then back up before
1:06:21
they come back. They're going to do those tests, though,
1:06:23
on this mission, the Artemis 3 mission, in Earth's orbit.
1:06:27
And so today, what NASA did to great pomp and
1:06:30
service. circumstance was name the crew of that mission that
1:06:33
are going to be testing out these lunar landers. And
1:06:36
there is talk about ramping up the cadence of this
1:06:39
mission, in essence, trying to speed things along. Well, yeah,
1:06:42
and that's what NASA is saying. They would like this
1:06:45
mission to go in 2027 ahead of a landing in
1:06:48
2028. But you have seen the news that one of
1:06:53
the companies involved in this, Blue Origin, which is a
1:06:56
company owned by Jeff Bezos, just a couple of weeks
1:06:59
ago had their new Glenn rocket, which would be vital
1:07:03
potentially to this mission, just explode in dramatic fashion, obliterated
1:07:08
the launch pad. NASA said... ready in time for this.
1:07:13
But we shouldn't discount the fact that the other provider,
1:07:15
which is Elon Musk's SpaceX, they've made a lot of
1:07:18
progress with their Starship vehicle, which is their lunar lander,
1:07:22
but it's never flown people. It's never left the vicinity
1:07:26
of Earth. It's never landed on the moon. And so
1:07:29
while they're putting face... to this mission, whether they'll be
1:07:33
able to do it next year and then have a
1:07:36
lunar landing by 2028, I think a lot of people
1:07:39
are frankly skeptical about that. Yes, including your No Agenda
1:07:42
Show podcast. Totally. Very skeptical about that. Now, wouldn't that
1:07:47
affect the SpaceX stock? It's going to be interesting to
1:07:52
see how space news will affect the stock. That whole
1:07:56
stock is going to be fun to watch. Well, I
1:07:57
don't think it's going to affect it as much as
1:08:00
a SpaceX vehicle blowing up and taking the whole operation
1:08:05
with it. Yeah, yeah. That can happen. Yeah, that's a
1:08:11
risky company. sink the company would be people getting killed.
1:08:16
Yeah, it's a bad day. happens. A little bit of
1:08:22
Epstein news. which I thought was interesting coming from a
1:08:27
new book. Titled Regime Change. heard about the regime change?
1:08:33
No, no. All I heard recently about Epstein is Bill
1:08:36
Gates' testimony. Yeah, but I have a clip, but it's
1:08:40
just nothing. All he says is, I'm sorry. I didn't
1:08:42
mean to do it. Okay. No, he said, according to
1:08:45
this morning, he did, somebody leaked that he said that
1:08:49
he was being blackmailed. Yeah. Yeah, but we knew that.
1:08:52
I don't believe it. Yeah, we knew it. It was
1:08:55
the STD thing. That note, the email that Epstein had
1:09:02
saved in his Gmail draft box. Oh, yeah, maybe. Eh,
1:09:05
it's okay. If you call that blackmail. Yeah. Here's the
1:09:09
Ms. Now version of this. story of the book regime
1:09:12
change danielle like i could understand the strategy of trying
1:09:16
to utilize maga media but tucker carlson interview maxwell what's
1:09:21
your reaction to that i mean i think that it's
1:09:23
incredibly shocking but i for me what is most disturbing
1:09:26
are the people that were in in the situation room
1:09:29
and the way that Haberman and Swan started off their
1:09:34
piece was stating what the Situation Room is actually used
1:09:38
for, right? Like war and discussions of strategy around our
1:09:43
foreign relations and domestic issues, etc. And the fact that
1:09:48
so many of Donald Trump's top staff... cabinet members were
1:09:52
in that situation room without him to discuss how to
1:09:56
cater, right, how to create a PR package for the
1:10:01
Epstein files is incredibly shocking. But the idea that you
1:10:04
would get Tucker Carlson to sit down with Ghislaine Maxwell
1:10:07
and Tucker Carlson, who has been at odds. with this
1:10:11
White House on a number of issues is really just
1:10:15
it's extraordinary. But to me, the most extraordinary part is
1:10:19
how many people were involved in the spin, in the
1:10:21
cover up and in the lie that this White House
1:10:24
said that Donald Trump had nothing to do with the
1:10:27
Epstein files. And yet these are not the actions that
1:10:29
are taken. by innocent people. So here... What? They're guilty!
1:10:34
They're covering for pedophiles. Here's the backstory. So... Uhhhh... Susie
1:10:40
Wiles. Levitt, Bondi, Blanche, Patel, Bongino, they're all in the
1:10:47
Situation Room. in the summer of 2025. Because they want
1:10:53
to contain the Epstein files fallout, fearing that the MAGA
1:10:58
base would turn on them, which, of course, is exactly
1:11:01
what happened. And apparently, Bongino was like, F you, Bondi,
1:11:05
you screwed this up from the start, which is also
1:11:08
true. Yeah, absolutely true. And so Trump wanted this stuff
1:11:13
buried. This is all according to this book, Regime Change.
1:11:17
Who wrote the book? Oh, Maggie Haberman. And, you know,
1:11:21
she's one of my favorites. New York Times people. No,
1:11:24
it's all New York Times. Yes. Where did they get
1:11:26
this information? Oh, well, uncorroborated. Of course. Um... Uh... So
1:11:35
apparently J.D. Vance. Let's stop right here. The Situation Room
1:11:41
is a room that is... One of the most protected,
1:11:44
it's almost like a skiff. For a reason. Yeah, it's
1:11:48
like a skiff. There's no... devices you can't get in
1:11:52
you can't get out kind of thing So it's sad
1:11:56
to be somebody in the meeting that... That's friends with
1:11:59
Haberman. Well, remember, this is the same situation room the
1:12:04
New York Times wrote about where they said that Netanyahu
1:12:07
was running the meeting, sitting at the head of the
1:12:09
table, and Trump was in the corner. talking or sleeping.
1:12:13
So it could be bull crap. It could be. So
1:12:16
apparently J.D. Vance floated the idea of having Tucker Carlson
1:12:21
interview Ghislaine Maxwell in prison. hoping she'd exonerate Trump. And
1:12:28
they chose Blanche instead. Um... I'm recording, let's see. The
1:12:36
tactic they came up with is Blanche proposed unsealing motions
1:12:39
expected to be denied so the administration could blame the
1:12:42
judges for nondisclosure. This is according to... Newsweek and Axios
1:12:47
who summarize the book and something from the New York
1:12:51
Times. from the New York Times. So the big thing
1:12:54
here is the story, as far as I can tell,
1:12:57
is that they wanted Tucker to interview Ghislaine Maxwell, have
1:13:01
someone friendly do it, which they ultimately didn't go with.
1:13:04
And it's being played as, well, they clearly had something
1:13:07
to cover up. I think the other side of it...
1:13:11
Is Trump new? As he said, let's put it that
1:13:14
way. He said this is a Democrat hoax. Which so
1:13:18
far seems to be correct. because there's really nothing about
1:13:22
Trump in there. other than some crazy FBI papers that
1:13:28
talked about him raping a 13-year-old, which... came from, you
1:13:31
know, phone call. Yeah, some anonymous call. Hello. Yeah, I
1:13:36
got some info for you. Yeah, so here's Tapper, Jake,
1:13:41
on the New York Times excerpt from the book as
1:13:43
they promote it heavily right before the midterms, of course.
1:13:46
We're going to start with the eyebrow-raising report today. Eyebrow-raising?
1:13:50
Detailing the White House. Freak out. That's in quotes. White
1:13:53
House freak out over the Epstein files last summer. This
1:13:56
New York Times article is drawn from reporting done for
1:13:58
the new book Regime Change, which comes out in roughly
1:14:01
two weeks. It's by New York Times White House reporters
1:14:04
Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan. Here are some of the
1:14:07
highlights of today's excerpt on July 17th, 2025. about a
1:14:11
year ago, a chunk of Trump's top officials, who you
1:14:14
see listed on your screen, led by the vice president,
1:14:17
filed into the White House Situation Room without the commander-in-chief,
1:14:20
without President Trump. They were trying to figure out how
1:14:23
to regain control over the growing, ugly narrative that the
1:14:26
Trump administration was, at the very least, complicit in a
1:14:29
cover-up. for the crimes of now-dead pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and
1:14:33
other predators in his orbit. Ten days earlier, the Justice
1:14:37
Department... Notice how he says, pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Yeah, that's
1:14:44
what you do. The very least complicit in a cover-up
1:14:47
for the crimes of now-dead pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and other...
1:14:51
predators in his orbit. Ten days earlier, the Justice Department
1:14:54
and FBI had released their nothing-to-see-here memo saying that their
1:14:58
review found no client list of the powerful men to
1:15:01
whom Epstein had allegedly trafficked girls underage and women. Vice
1:15:05
President Vance reportedly told the group, this is a huge
1:15:08
problem, and he argued that all the Epstein files should
1:15:11
be released. The report says, quote, Vance had also floated
1:15:14
to colleagues an extraordinary PR gambit that the White House
1:15:17
enlists Tucker Carlson to interview Epstein's longtime girlfriend and co-conspirator
1:15:23
Ghislaine Maxwell in prison. It might help the president if
1:15:26
Maxwell was willing to state that Trump had not been
1:15:28
part of any wrongdoing with Epstein. Spoiler alert, Tucker did
1:15:32
not get that gig. You will note, however, that the
1:15:35
goal here, as stated, seemed to be to get Trump
1:15:38
cleared. by Maxwell, who is a criminal with questionable credibility,
1:15:44
to say the least. So that seems to be the
1:15:47
headline. So I don't think there's much else in the
1:15:49
book. um That's probably the book. That's probably the book
1:15:53
right there. Maybe this one is a little bit here.
1:15:56
Here's how some of the situation in the room debate
1:15:57
went down, according to this Times report by Haberman and
1:16:00
Swan. Quote, the vice president said he thought the president
1:16:03
would be okay with releasing the nipple-related documents, arguing that
1:16:07
Trump had been accused of worse. I think we should
1:16:10
put it out, he said. cause people to say we're
1:16:12
going for this is the nipple gate Somewhere apparently in
1:16:17
the files, which I have not seen, someone claimed that
1:16:21
Trump liked nipples. Oh brother, this is like that Gorilla
1:16:25
TV bullcrap. Oh, Gorilla TV? Oh, that he watched Gorillas?
1:16:31
Yeah, yeah. got in office. They made the claims in
1:16:35
one of these Axios. He sits and watches Gorilla TV.
1:16:40
Don't you remember the Gorilla TV stuff? Yeah, I remember.
1:16:44
That's all he watches. He goes on TV and he
1:16:46
watches the Gorilla Channel, which doesn't exist because they created
1:16:51
it. phony channel for him just so he'd watch gorillas.
1:16:55
What? It's good. People are lapping it up. Yeah, gorilla
1:17:00
TV. The nipple related documents arguing that Trump had been
1:17:05
accused of worse. I think we should put it out,
1:17:07
he said. It would cause people to say, we're going
1:17:09
further than we need to. Trump White House Chief of
1:17:12
Staff Susie Wiles quickly responded that the president would not,
1:17:15
in fact, be okay with it. No, don't do that
1:17:17
about nipples and me. That's no good. It was a
1:17:20
point no one wanted to continue debating. This story summed
1:17:23
up the White House dilemma, as the report put it,
1:17:25
quote, piles of accusations were impossible to disprove and equally
1:17:29
impossible to make go away. Every door they opened led
1:17:31
to another room, and in every room were more claims
1:17:35
for more women." Yeah, claims for more women. None of
1:17:39
whom will testify because they all get paid off. Yeah.
1:17:43
All right, final one. This is about Gates. Billionaire Bill
1:17:46
Gates telling Congress that Jeffrey Epstein was, quote, working to
1:17:49
use information about my. to pressure Gates to re-engage with
1:17:55
him after their business contact had ended, which sounds a
1:17:58
lot to me like blackmail. Gates told members of the
1:18:01
House Oversight Committee he had no knowledge of Jeffrey Epstein's
1:18:04
crimes. So why did the committee want to hear from
1:18:07
Gates? Well, the Epstein files release revealed a degree of
1:18:10
philanthropic coordination between Gates and Epstein that was more detailed
1:18:14
than previously known, plus, perhaps more importantly, a series of
1:18:18
graphic, again, unverified allegations. One involved two draft emails that
1:18:24
Epstein appears to have written himself in 2013, claiming that
1:18:28
he had facilitated sexual encounters for Gates. and helped Gates
1:18:31
obtain medication to hide a sexually transmitted disease from his
1:18:35
wife, his then wife. The allegations, again, unverified, uncorroborated. There's
1:18:40
no indication the message was ever shared with Gates, that
1:18:43
message in the draft file, or anyone else, frankly. And
1:18:46
Gates has not been accused of any criminal wrongdoing in
1:18:48
any sort of criminal proceeding. Gates has strongly denied these
1:18:53
claims, but he said today Epstein threatened unsuccessfully to pressure
1:18:57
him to use what he knew about his infidelities, quote,
1:19:00
in addition to many lies that he layered on top.
1:19:03
Excuse me to re-engage with Gates After they had cut
1:19:07
out, he had cut off contact. Yeah, so sounds like
1:19:10
a big nothing. this book, but say, I mean, who
1:19:14
publishes this? Well, you look at it, probably Simon and
1:19:18
Schuster. Aren't they the CBS guys? Simon and Schuster. I
1:19:24
don't keep track of it as well as I should.
1:19:27
It just seems like, well, I don't think there's anything
1:19:30
good in this book. because Tapper would be all over
1:19:33
it. It's just not there. No, I think you nailed
1:19:36
it. What they just talked about is the book. Yeah.
1:19:41
So we got a boots on the ground feedback about
1:19:46
you calling the iPhone the Antichrist. Oh yeah. Which was
1:19:52
a nice note from Ed. And Ed says... And the
1:19:57
funny thing is the note just caught on fire after
1:19:59
you read it. Is that not mistaken? Boof. Finally, I
1:20:03
can contribute some knowledge value to the show. During the
1:20:06
opening of the show, John started talking about how the
1:20:08
iPhone is the antichrist. Well, I do sales for Frito-Lay,
1:20:12
and I see people staring at their phone all the
1:20:15
time while in the grocery store. What they are doing
1:20:18
is a form of digital shopping. It's either Instacart or
1:20:21
the store's own shopping app. They look like phone zombies.
1:20:25
I see this all day during my work week. Thank
1:20:29
you for your attention to this matter. So people are
1:20:32
on the shopping app while they're shopping? I've seen this
1:20:36
before. You go shot, you're in the grocery store and
1:20:38
there's this guys, they're shot, usually men. There's some women
1:20:43
too, but mostly men. They grab a product, they look
1:20:45
at it, and then they use Google eyes or something
1:20:49
and they take a picture and see if they're... price
1:20:51
is okay. to see if they can get a better
1:20:55
deal at the next store. I don't know what the
1:20:57
point is. Well, this leads into a story that I
1:21:02
picked up from KTLA and I looked into the study
1:21:06
that is mentioned. Birth rates in the United States and
1:21:09
elsewhere started... falling in the year 2007. That is the
1:21:13
same year that Apple introduced the iPhone. Is there a
1:21:18
connection? Antichrist. Well, new research is suggesting, yeah, that could
1:21:23
be the case. So up till now, the most frequently
1:21:27
cited culprits for falling fertility rates were contraception use, abortions,
1:21:32
and the rising levels of female education. Now attention is
1:21:36
turning to the smartphone. Recently published findings indicate that as
1:21:39
much as half of the fertility decline from 2007 to
1:21:43
2011, when the iPhone was exclusive to the AT&T network,
1:21:47
could be attributed to the arrival of... Apple's ground bacon
1:21:52
gadget. Ground bacon gadget. By the way, I should mention,
1:21:56
this is almost the identical story that ran on KGO
1:22:00
locally. Well, it comes from a... It's all over the
1:22:04
country. Yes. The National Bureau of Economic Research, they have
1:22:08
a study which they published. But it's not peer-reviewed. It's
1:22:13
pre-publication. So you know what that means. The claim is
1:22:18
the iPhone rollout explains the 33 to 52% of the
1:22:24
2007-2011 U.S. fertility rate decline. quote as much as half.
1:22:31
kind of. Biggest effect on the young births fell to
1:22:37
4.5 to 8%, ages 15 to 19. Wow, 15-year-olds. And
1:22:43
3.2 to 6.6%, ages 20 to 24. However... This is
1:22:48
really what they say was the mechanism. Less in-person interaction.
1:22:52
Sounds true. more pornography, and less sexual frequency. I don't
1:22:59
think you need a study to come up with those
1:23:01
results. We could have told you that. Now you need
1:23:04
to play your women clip. You're whatever, girls. Yeah, let's
1:23:10
play this. This is the... Some questions of the whatever
1:23:13
girls. Name three countries besides the USA. Africa, Asia. I
1:23:19
can't even think of a third one. I don't know.
1:23:22
How many continents are there? Eight. Six? Six. Name one
1:23:28
continent. Do I need to answer? Yep. Oh my... Can
1:23:32
you just skip me first? Well, how about this? Let
1:23:34
me help. I'll give a hint. You're from which country?
1:23:37
China. Which is where? West. West. I don't know. West
1:23:41
coast. East. China is in which continent? Oh. Because you're
1:23:47
from China. Uh-huh. China is from which continent? East Asia?
1:23:52
Just give it to her, bro. What country is directly
1:23:54
north of Mexico? Chloe. North of... North is up or
1:24:00
down? I'm confused with the north-south thing. Well, on the
1:24:04
map, with your finger, what direction is north and what
1:24:07
direction is south? I don't know why that's always been
1:24:10
so... confusing to me like I'm sorry I'm that stupid
1:24:13
well so the problem is not the kids who weren't
1:24:16
born is the ones who were born That's the problem
1:24:20
we have here. Wow, that's so sad. Again, that's a
1:24:25
national security issue. You know, I'm taking the side of
1:24:27
these women. Okay. It's arbitrary. If you change the axis
1:24:35
of the globe, I mean, what's north? Why is it
1:24:38
north called north? Why is it not south? And when
1:24:41
the poles shift, what happens then? Are you going to
1:24:45
call north-south? Okay. And what is up and down? South
1:24:50
isn't down. That's down. You're pointing to the center of
1:24:53
the earth. isn't your north isn't up that's the that's
1:24:57
the satellite you're gonna hit with that finger So I
1:25:03
think a lot of this is just arbitrary. Yeah, you
1:25:05
can make anybody look like an idiot. Are you looking
1:25:08
for a cameo on the Whatever Girls? podcast i'm sure
1:25:12
it can be arranged it'd be great it's just cough
1:25:15
and hackalock and i'm just saying So the controversy over
1:25:20
Bill Pulte continues. The Democrats in the Senate now have
1:25:26
come up with a gambit. I know what we're going
1:25:29
to do. We're going to not. to extend Section 702
1:25:33
where you can spy on everybody. Okay, and then FISA,
1:25:36
that is the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. I'm well familiar
1:25:39
with it. I know you are too. So it's been
1:25:42
under threat of expiring many, many times, but now it
1:25:46
actually seems to be happening. And Mike Johnson, the Speaker
1:25:48
of the House, is going to the White House today
1:25:50
to... talk about it. He spoke a little bit on
1:25:52
the floor yesterday. Watch here. You cannot play politics with
1:25:55
the security of the American people. I am praying that
1:25:58
they come to their senses and that the Senate can
1:26:00
work this out and we move forward and we do
1:26:02
not let this critical national security tool expire. So apparently
1:26:07
one of the Democrats big issues is that the acting
1:26:09
director of national security. Do you think the president should
1:26:13
pull him? I think the president probably is in the
1:26:17
process, Adina, of determining the... This is Senator Thune. ...who
1:26:22
the long-term person would be to fill that position. And
1:26:25
I think that's going to be an important decision and
1:26:29
one that will probably... and whether or not Democrats support
1:26:31
this. But here's the issue. This is an irresponsible position
1:26:37
for the Senate Democrats to take. The 702 program, first
1:26:41
off, you had, you know, it was the air control
1:26:44
issues, then it was the border security issues, sanctuary cities.
1:26:47
This is a party of defund the police. open borders,
1:26:50
sanctuary cities, and now, now, shutting down one of the
1:26:54
most important tools we have to keep people in this
1:26:57
country safe. And this thing goes dark at midnight on
1:27:00
Friday. And what you heard the Speaker say yesterday is
1:27:02
absolutely right. This is an absolutely irresponsible position for the
1:27:06
Democrats to take, and one that puts at risk and
1:27:09
in jeopardy. the American people if this particular program goes
1:27:12
dark. Are you able to, if there's some resolution today,
1:27:15
do you have enough time to prevent it from going
1:27:17
dark? It'd be hard. I mean, you know, the Senate,
1:27:20
the procedure on the floor, but if we could get
1:27:22
cooperation, yes. I mean, obviously it requires cooperation, but that
1:27:25
is the goal. And hopefully the Democrats will come to
1:27:28
their senses because this is, you cannot. You cannot take
1:27:31
these risks. Now I think it's good. Let it go
1:27:33
dark. What was... What was 702 before the 9-11? I
1:27:41
don't think it existed. Well, how did we get by?
1:27:45
How is it possible that we got by? We didn't.
1:27:48
9-11, fool. That's why we had all of this stuff.
1:27:52
Because 9-11. Because. Because 9-11. Patriot Act. Because 9-11. Yeah,
1:27:58
we're... I'm surprised... Thune or Johnson didn't say that. Well,
1:28:02
you want another 9-11? Eh? And section seven. You save
1:28:07
that for the end. Well, he didn't say it at
1:28:10
the end. Section 702. No, you say it for the
1:28:12
end if they can't get it to work. If they
1:28:15
can't get it through, you've got to start pulling it
1:28:17
out. Oh, that'll be, okay. But it's tomorrow. Tomorrow, midnight.
1:28:20
This goes dark. It goes dark. Like, oh, the tool
1:28:27
isn't gone. The tool is still there. You can still
1:28:30
use it. You know. We know from... They just want
1:28:36
a surveillance state, and they do a crappy job with
1:28:39
it. It hasn't done anything. No. It's just for political
1:28:44
purposes. They get to attract Trump. Spy on other campaigns.
1:28:48
Yes. Yeah. That's what you said. clip on this? No,
1:28:51
I don't. I'm sorry. I thought I did. Okay. But
1:28:54
I do have a clip of the Pope. In the
1:28:57
airplane, have you heard this? No, I have not heard
1:28:59
about the Pope on the airplane. Here we go. Pope
1:29:01
Leo joined the crew aboard his flight to Barcelona today.
1:29:04
The pontiff took the cockpit jump seat and chatted with
1:29:07
the pilots after taking off from Madrid. Then he put
1:29:11
on headphones and started chatting with the Air Force fighter
1:29:14
pilot escorting his plane. The Pope's been in Spain all
1:29:17
week for an historic visit. Now, I had not heard
1:29:20
that story. It's kind of funny. I like the lighting
1:29:24
of the Sagrada Familia. Did you see that? That looks
1:29:27
pretty cool. No, what happened? Well, that's the big church
1:29:29
that Gaudí... you know, start building, you know, there's been
1:29:32
under construction for a while. They went in Barcelona. Yeah.
1:29:35
An 80 years. How long has that thing been longer?
1:29:37
Long time. I think it's over a hundred, but over
1:29:40
a hundred years. So they kind of said it's complete.
1:29:44
Although I don't know if it's ever really complete. They
1:29:47
lit it up, man. They lit it up. I'm sure
1:29:49
it looks great lit up. Phenomenal. It was a perfect
1:29:53
light show. Pope was on hand. They had orchestras playing
1:29:56
live. Have you been to that thing? Yeah. Tina and
1:29:58
I went three years ago. It's fantastic. I think it's
1:30:04
kind of creepy. Really? When's the last time you went?
1:30:08
What? When did you last see it? I mean, it's...
1:30:11
About eight years ago. Oh. The difference is a make.
1:30:15
A hundred years ago. Well, because when we went there
1:30:19
three years ago, it was pretty complete. Inside, it doesn't
1:30:23
feel creepy, and outside, you know, it's interesting to look
1:30:26
at. I wasn't thinking of the inside being creepy. I
1:30:28
think the whole thing is creepy. Oh. I think it's
1:30:32
kind of cool. It's an architectural wonder. It's a marvel.
1:30:39
You have no appreciation for art. No, it's just that
1:30:41
Gowdy stuff is gruesome. There's a bunch of gaudy stuff
1:30:48
all over the town. Yeah, oh yeah, there's the... Is
1:30:51
that whole village? We went to that as well, the
1:30:53
village where he built all these. Got all the apartment
1:30:55
buildings. Oh, yeah, there's a lot of apartment buildings. It
1:30:58
all looks like goo. There's a gooey look quality to
1:31:03
it. It's like you got something on your fingers and
1:31:06
you hold it, you open it, it's like a bunch
1:31:07
of... I always thought it looked like a sandcastle. you
1:31:10
build where you drip sand you know you you dribble
1:31:13
it on top and you make your little sand castle
1:31:17
um So big news in Europe. First of all, the
1:31:23
defense secretary, John Healey, resigned saying, you guys aren't serious
1:31:27
about this. There's no money to defend the UK. I'm
1:31:30
British. Defence Secretary John Healey has resigned from his position
1:31:33
in a dispute over spending on defence. In a letter
1:31:38
posted on X, Mr Healey accused Mr Starmer's government, that's
1:31:41
of course the Prime Minister, of failing to provide the
1:31:44
resources needed to defend the country. John, just that quick
1:31:49
read there, Mr Healey. for months now fighting for more
1:31:52
spending on defense. Yeah, so what we've heard is, as
1:31:57
you mentioned, is very much the defence secretary saying there
1:31:59
isn't enough money going in to the armed forces here
1:32:04
in the UK. We have this defence spending review that
1:32:08
was going to be published and will. still be published
1:32:10
and the defense secretary quite simply saying that the money
1:32:14
needed for him to be able to remain in the
1:32:17
job in good faith is not available and it's quite
1:32:20
as simple as that he says of course incredibly damaging
1:32:24
for Keir Starmer as you might imagine but this seems
1:32:28
to be a matter of principle for the defense who
1:32:31
has worked on this spending review, has worked out the
1:32:35
money needed in order for the UK's armed forces to
1:32:39
have the equipment they need, to have the training they
1:32:42
need and to have the right number of them as
1:32:45
well with all these challenges facing the country and the
1:32:49
world as he put it. And he simply believes that
1:32:52
the amount of money that is being made available is
1:32:55
not enough. And so he has resigned on that point
1:32:58
of principle. This is these are the guys who are
1:33:00
going to defend everyone from Russia. which they continue to
1:33:04
say they're going to do without the United States. Well,
1:33:07
we got to ramp up our industrial, our military industrial
1:33:11
base. And how's that working out for France and Germany?
1:33:15
A joint Franco-German fighter jet project championed by Emmanuel Macron
1:33:19
and Friedrich Merz has failed to get off the ground.
1:33:22
The two leaders have agreed to scrap the deal. Airbus
1:33:27
and Dassault Aviation couldn't, it seems, set aside commercial rivalry
1:33:30
in a project... designed to help Europe rearm for a
1:33:33
future without American support. Well, clearly, there are vast repercussions
1:33:38
on this decision. Let's bring in for some analysis on
1:33:40
this, Jeanette Soos, who's a research fellow at the Study
1:33:44
Committee for Franco-German Relations. Jeanette, thanks very much for being
1:33:47
with us here. We need your help on this one,
1:33:49
because looking at this from a neutral... kind of perspective
1:33:52
as I am, it would seem that there would need
1:33:55
to be some kind of cooperation between all parties on
1:34:00
this kind of project because of its overall importance to
1:34:03
the whole continent of Europe. So why has this failed
1:34:07
to take off? Yeah, very good question. Thanks for having
1:34:10
me, first of all. It's one of the biggest projects
1:34:13
or even the biggest project that was foreseen in the
1:34:17
European defense area. So everyone looked at France and Germany
1:34:22
and Spain, of course, whether they would make it. Finally,
1:34:26
the industrial rivalries were just too big. The project has
1:34:30
been stalled. for years now so it didn't really come
1:34:34
as a surprise as such although there were mediation efforts
1:34:39
being made even lately to break a compromise but this
1:34:44
didn't go through. It seems a little bit depressing that
1:34:47
these kind of interests of a company get in the
1:34:51
way of the... the greater good, the global sort of
1:34:53
need of the whole of Europe. So they couldn't even
1:34:55
get their companies to agree on this. Say what you
1:34:58
will of Trump. He fixes that stuff real quick. Shut
1:35:02
up. Shut up and make it. So they've got nothing.
1:35:06
They can't build a fighter jet. got nothing going on.
1:35:09
They continue to... poke Volodymyr to blow up stuff in
1:35:15
Russia. It doesn't seem like that's going the way they
1:35:20
want it. Or maybe it's exactly what they want. That's
1:35:22
possible, too. Yeah, maybe that's what they want. So thank
1:35:25
you everybody for the hundreds of emails about peptides. It's
1:35:30
highly appreciated. Every you know whenever you get an email
1:35:34
that is 2000 words Telling you why it's good or
1:35:39
why it's bad. It's like there's too much explaining going
1:35:42
on. And it seems like if you want this, it's
1:35:45
now, the new name is, it's called GLP-3. That's the
1:35:50
peptide everyone's talking about. That's the Retritude. I can't remember.
1:35:55
Yeah. It's a horrible name. It's not a marketing name.
1:35:59
I didn't get the clip, but, you know, the GLP-1
1:36:01
is just a Gila monster poison. Well, we talked about
1:36:06
that at least two years ago. It's coming around, and
1:36:10
it doesn't actually contain GLP-1. It contains Gila monster venom,
1:36:15
which has a different medical name and that extended for,
1:36:18
I think. Yeah. And then, and that triggers the G
1:36:21
your own GLP one and it paralyzes your stomach and
1:36:24
okay. Yeah. And blind you. So your eye rots, it
1:36:29
has what they call a black box warning, you know,
1:36:32
which is to be. Ignored at all costs. So my
1:36:36
conclusion is if you work out and you want to
1:36:38
get ripped and you eat tons of protein, you drink
1:36:42
your protein shakes and you eat your beef, it's probably
1:36:45
going to make you look, they call it the Wolverine.
1:36:48
The wolverine peptide, it makes you like a beast, and
1:36:52
that's possible. I'm sure it's good. But I got this
1:36:56
note from Renee, who is a... Um... licensed therapist in
1:37:04
Portland, Oregon, and she wanted us to know about the
1:37:07
mental health industrial complex. And I thought I'd share that
1:37:12
because I thought it was. quite good. I work for
1:37:14
a large mental health company. I've treated thousands of adult
1:37:17
clients. I've noticed trends that I know originate from mental
1:37:21
health content on social media. This content persuades viewers to
1:37:25
self-diagnose and to pathologize and medicalize normal human feeling states.
1:37:31
as in states of being, states of feeling. Signs of
1:37:34
stress become an anxiety disorder. Bad things happening becomes trauma.
1:37:39
Quirky personalities becomes autism. Clients are 100% attached to their
1:37:43
diagnosis because the diagnosis becomes their identity. this was good.
1:37:50
The attitude is clear. Everyone must be diagnosed and medicated
1:37:53
for the greater good. I see this across age groups,
1:37:56
backgrounds, locations, politics, and genders. I hear clients scoff at
1:38:00
a friend's unmedicated child or a mother-in-law with undiagnosed ADHD.
1:38:08
Personality traits that fall outside the approved spectrum of acceptance
1:38:12
are... increasingly viewed with suspicion. That's why everyone sounds like
1:38:16
they're speaking in an HR meeting. I genuinely worry that
1:38:18
at some point people may be coerced to accept the
1:38:21
diagnosis and worse, forced to be medicated. Most of my
1:38:25
clients are lifelong therapy consumers. They come in with, on
1:38:28
average, three to four diagnoses, and many take two to
1:38:31
five psychotropic drugs. I rarely see documentation of such symptoms
1:38:42
that justify the diagnosis anymore, and they're being medicated into
1:38:45
outer space for it. Lately, I feel like I'm treating
1:38:49
anxiety and depression caused by the medications. themselves. Yes, we've
1:38:53
identified this. Hello. Which is not something talk therapy can
1:38:57
meaningfully treat. These attitudes are readily visible on Therapist Reddit.
1:39:03
I'm not familiar with Therapist Reddit. One thread about clients
1:39:07
on the bipolar spectrum is what made me reach out.
1:39:11
The phrase bipolar spectrum isn't even a thing. It's not
1:39:16
in the DSM. Once you introduce spectrum language, talking with
1:39:22
a lot of confidence, optimism, high energy, ambition, and creativity
1:39:27
can all become symptoms requiring treatment. Often a mood stabilizer.
1:39:31
anti-psychotic. Lithium is no joke. So if you're confident, have
1:39:37
optimism, high energy and ambition. You clearly need to be
1:39:41
medicated. That's great. What concerns me most are the responses.
1:39:49
Medication is first line. I'd start here. MEDS, not therapy.
1:39:53
And my favorite, are there children involved? Then you need
1:39:56
to do a risk assessment. Look at the initial symptoms
1:39:59
and tell me why they need to ask if children
1:40:01
are involved. And she winds up by saying, no, agenda
1:40:04
really got me through the COVID years. I'm starting to
1:40:07
post on X, Gen X underscore therapist, Renee. I think
1:40:13
that kind of sums it up. And it's sad. But
1:40:17
yes. We're on the, we need a spectrum. We need
1:40:20
to come up with our own spectrum. The no agenda
1:40:23
spectrum. The amygdala spectrum. Something. We need to come up
1:40:26
with something. Well, we're on the topic of this sort
1:40:28
of thing. Let's do a couple of... Screwball I saved
1:40:32
you and now you just do it again. This is
1:40:36
kind of along the similar lines of what you just
1:40:39
read. This is, again... First time I've done a double
1:40:43
with Brett Weinstein. Whoa. But this is a little discussion
1:40:47
of COVID shots. COVID shuts. Let me ask you a
1:40:51
question. If this is a two minute and 41 second
1:40:55
clip of Brett Weinstein? If you think it's boring, well,
1:40:59
you think he's boring, so I shouldn't have said that.
1:41:01
No, it's okay. We'll listen to Brett. Let me ask
1:41:03
you a question. Are you still getting COVID boosters? No.
1:41:07
You're not? Why not? Well, I've already had COVID a
1:41:11
couple times, so I have natural immunity. Oh, so you
1:41:13
believe in natural immunity. Well, after the initial vaccine. The
1:41:17
entire public health apparatus assured us that. Wait a minute,
1:41:19
who is he talking to? Who is he talking to?
1:41:23
This is one of his stooges that he has on
1:41:25
his show every so often. Oh. A scientist guy who's
1:41:28
all in on the COVID shot. Natural immunity was not
1:41:32
good enough and that you still got a benefit from
1:41:34
it? Oh, hold on. The mac and cheese spectrum. That's
1:41:37
what it is, John. I just saw that in the
1:41:39
troll room. Gotta call it out. Mac and cheese spectrum.
1:41:41
That's what we're doing. Oh, they got it wrong. Look,
1:41:44
Brett. They got many things wrong. Do you remember that
1:41:46
moment in time? I do. Do you remember people like
1:41:49
me shouting about this? Yes, I do. OK, so now
1:41:52
we find out from Paul Offit that all of the
1:41:56
major players gathered together and privately understood the very same
1:42:00
thing that they were gaslighting us over. They understood that
1:42:03
natural immunity was the best immunity that you were going
1:42:06
to come by and that a vaccine wasn't going to
1:42:07
augment it. And they decided to keep that to themselves.
1:42:10
in spite of the fact that these vaccines are built
1:42:14
on a novel technology they didn't know the hazards of,
1:42:17
at best. So how is it that these people can
1:42:22
privately meet and decide there's a whole swath, millions of
1:42:27
people, hundreds of millions of... people who'd already had COVID
1:42:31
who didn't need to take any risk whatsoever from a
1:42:34
novel vaccine, how is it that they get to privately
1:42:37
decide to keep that information to themselves? And why, given
1:42:43
that they did that, given that you remember the moments
1:42:46
in history at which they were, not only were they...
1:42:49
disagreeing with us, which was a lie. They were gaslighting
1:42:53
us. They were telling people like you that people like
1:42:56
me were crazy. Who is the they and the them
1:42:59
that he's referencing here? Fauci? He's talking about the Fauci's
1:43:03
and everybody who had the meeting that said that we're
1:43:06
not going to, we're going to downplay natural immunity and
1:43:09
say it doesn't work. Is this news? This is something
1:43:12
that's new? No, it's just that I like the excitability.
1:43:15
It's not to us. Yeah, exactly. Let's be realistic. We're
1:43:19
not going to play anything that's news to us. True.
1:43:23
It's just that these guys, these Charlie-come-latelys, or Johnny-come-latelys, let
1:43:28
me get the... Charlie come lately. Charlie come lately. These
1:43:32
Charlie come lately's come in and they're all, like Weinstein,
1:43:37
I put in that category. He was on the right
1:43:40
side of the argument, but then he's all bent out
1:43:42
of shape because he's stunned. He's stunned there's gambling going
1:43:46
on. And you can stop playing that clip. Let's skip
1:43:49
to another clip. Okay. This is also long. You can
1:43:53
stop playing at some point. This is Michael Yeadon. This
1:43:57
is a guy who worked for Pfizer. He's a Pfizer
1:43:59
researcher, I think. Yeah. And he says, and this, by
1:44:03
the way, the only reason I want to play this
1:44:04
is because this is something you suggested on day one.
1:44:09
Of the COVID-19 epidemic, or pandemic. Epidemic. Pandemic. Screwball-demic, yeah.
1:44:16
There has not been a pandemic. Dennis Rancourt's data shows
1:44:21
that the all-cause mortality data did not increase at all
1:44:26
in the run-up to the declaration, fraudulently. by WHO pandemic.
1:44:30
There is no public health emergency except that created by
1:44:34
our governments. a inappropriate fraudulent PCR test was used to
1:44:40
give people the impression that they had a particular disease
1:44:43
where they didn't. They were all the normal diseases. And
1:44:46
then what happened was... In three different ways, people were
1:44:50
treated badly through changed medical procedures that were imposed above
1:44:55
the level of nation. Briefly, mass ventilation of people inappropriately
1:45:01
in hospitals that led to lots of deaths. In care
1:45:05
homes, many people were given sedatives and... respiratory depressants which
1:45:09
led to their deaths. My PhD was specifically in that
1:45:13
area of opiates and respiratory depression. And in the community,
1:45:17
people were denied. life-saving antibiotics and died of bacterial pneumonia.
1:45:24
There's your pandemic. There is no other pandemic. And based
1:45:28
on this line, We were told that vaccines were coming
1:45:32
our way and would be our savior. You mean this
1:45:36
was the testing piece, the PCR? Is that what you're
1:45:39
referring to? No, the fact that there's no pandemic. There
1:45:42
was no pandemic ever. This is the thing we once
1:45:46
in a while still bring up, the fact that... For
1:45:48
some curious reason, there was not one flu death. And
1:45:52
no cases of the flu that one year. Yeah, it
1:45:56
was amazing. So his theory is there was no pandemic.
1:45:59
The whole thing was a fake. Yes. And it was
1:46:02
like just exaggerated by the phony baloney PCR test to
1:46:06
make it look like there was more going on than
1:46:08
there was. And I think that's backed up by my
1:46:11
thoughts on the ambulances in front of the hospital that
1:46:16
show up on the nightly news but weren't there three
1:46:18
hours later when a YouTuber goes by. Yeah. Yeah, just
1:46:24
one of those clips. They're starting to come out now.
1:46:27
Yeah. All in hindsight. And it won't mean anything. Of
1:46:31
course it won't. Let's talk about the Jews for a
1:46:34
second. I have a couple of Jew clips. In particular,
1:46:38
Israel. Uh, the great one, your boy. Mark Levin? Yes,
1:46:46
your boy, the great one. Mark! Levin. They're hired. America.
1:46:50
I was waiting for your cue. He's very, he's very
1:46:54
upset with the president. He's upset with the president for
1:46:57
yelling at BB. I don't know why the president of
1:46:59
the United States feels the need to keep going to
1:47:01
left-wing reporters and talking about confidential conversations he has with
1:47:06
the Prime Minister of Israel. And I don't know why
1:47:09
he keeps bashing the prime minister of Israel. He's trying
1:47:12
to protect his country and his own people. Just a
1:47:15
few weeks ago, their fighter jets were fighting right alongside
1:47:18
ours. The Mossad was working with the CIA. And of
1:47:22
course, the prime minister was working with the president in
1:47:25
what was a spectacular military operation. I know the president
1:47:29
is deeply desperate for a deal. The Iranians know he's
1:47:32
deeply desperate for a deal. The whole world knows he's
1:47:35
deeply desperate for a deal. Got it. And Israel's told
1:47:38
it can only fight a defensive war. And Israel's told
1:47:40
to stay away from Beirut, even though the head of
1:47:43
the snake is right outside of Beirut. The hypocrisy of
1:47:46
our country that wouldn't put up with it. in the
1:47:49
treatment of that country is ridiculous. In fact, we don't
1:47:53
ask any other country to do that. None. So why
1:47:57
the constant beating up of Netanyahu? In fact, there was
1:48:00
an announcement from the White House last night saying we
1:48:03
had nothing to do with this. Our military is not
1:48:05
involved. And I commented. Well, that's nothing to be proud
1:48:09
of. So Mark Levin is not happy with how this
1:48:12
is going. I'm not happy the president is bashing BB.
1:48:17
But the interesting thing that popped up. I think Marjorie
1:48:21
Taylor Greene. And I kept hearing about people saying, even
1:48:25
here, the ladies of Fredericksburg on the text group. I
1:48:30
think Tina asked me, said, Is America going to integrate
1:48:35
its army, its military, with the Israeli military? I'm like,
1:48:40
what? What? Have you heard this talk? Yeah, I have.
1:48:46
So this is about Section 2. of the National Defense
1:48:50
Authorization Act. Which is always fun. But there's a lot
1:48:55
of different stuff. In here that is worth talking about.
1:49:00
Now, very hard to get a straight read of 224,
1:49:05
what's really in it. I was only able to find
1:49:07
one. W-I-O-N, which comes with the appropriate Indian accent, but
1:49:15
at least the information is correct. All right, and moving
1:49:18
on, a new provision in U.S. House version of the
1:49:20
2027 National Defense Authorization Act, released earlier this week, is
1:49:25
now drawing attention for its potential implications for U.S. Israeli
1:49:28
defense starts. According to a report by Responsible States Craft,
1:49:32
a provision in the Act known as Section 224, it
1:49:36
lays the groundwork for bilateral research and development, co-production of
1:49:40
weapons, joint ventures, licensing agreements, and seemingly every manner of
1:49:45
U.S. and Israeli military-industrial complex cooperation. This provision would greatly
1:49:50
expand coordination to seemingly every area of defense tech, including
1:49:54
AI, quantum, autonomous systems, directed energy, cyber, biotech, and many
1:50:00
more. It also proposes network integration and data fusion. In
1:50:04
other words, the report suggests that U.S. military's data could
1:50:07
soon be the Israeli military's data. data. So... It's an
1:50:11
integration of technology and data. And of course the likely
1:50:17
suspects Massey and Kahana are trying to get it out.
1:50:20
We can't have this. We can't integrate these militaries. Dr.
1:50:23
Thomas Massey yesterday stated if the provision to the National
1:50:26
Defense Authorization Act, which would basically integrate the U.S. and
1:50:29
Israeli militaries goes through. See, I love how that essentially
1:50:35
integrates them. They're one. It's the one and the same.
1:50:38
I'll offer an amendment to strip it off, to strip
1:50:40
it from the bill on the floor. Thomas Ro Khanna
1:50:43
then responded to that today and stated, I will be
1:50:47
offering an amendment in the committee. itself to strip section
1:50:51
224 out, Thomas Massey. Trump can't kill the Massey-Kahana partnership
1:50:55
no matter how much he posts on Truth Social. Oh,
1:50:59
yeah, the Massey-Kahana partnership. Let's find out what this really
1:51:02
is about because it's kind of interesting. The U.S. and
1:51:04
Israel have a 10-year defense agreement ending in fiscal year
1:51:07
2028. The U.S. committed $3.3 billion per year in foreign
1:51:12
military financing grants, plus $500 million for missile defense cooperation.
1:51:17
That's $38 billion total. Yeah, over 10 years. We have
1:51:20
financially supported Israel since 1949. What began mostly as economic
1:51:24
aid has become, over time, a heavily military relationship. The
1:51:28
fiscal year... The new U.S. Defense Act, Section 224, would
1:51:32
create a lead office inside the Pentagon to synchronize U.S.-Israel
1:51:36
cooperation across AI, quantum computing, cyber defense network integration, and
1:51:40
data fusion. To be clear, integration in defense technology does
1:51:44
not equal a literal merger of armed forces. In my
1:51:47
opinion, it's nearly as bad. may be worse. So let
1:51:49
me explain. There are two older bills, both called the
1:51:52
United States-Israel Defense Partnership Act of 2025, which have been
1:51:56
sitting in committee since February 2025 with over 200 combined
1:51:59
co-sponsors. The same policy concepts now appear in the must-pass
1:52:03
NDAA process. So the idea is to, I guess the...
1:52:09
3.3 billion. which is the money we're giving to Israel
1:52:13
that people have their panties in a bunch over, which
1:52:15
they need to spend on our military stuff. is coming
1:52:20
to an end in 2028. So this, of course, needs
1:52:23
to be rejiggered so we can't lose $3.3 billion. for
1:52:28
the military-industrial complex. So they decided to do it a
1:52:32
different way to end that, which I think is cosmetic.
1:52:35
Well, oh, we're not giving money to Israel anymore. And
1:52:37
I'm against this section. 224 but for different reasons and
1:52:43
it's in this clip. Stephen Simon from the Quincy Institute
1:52:46
published a brief this month. His brief is a warning.
1:52:48
the next phase of U.S.-Israel defense support may become less
1:52:52
visible. Under the current agreement, about 25% of the annual
1:52:56
$3.3 billion grant, roughly $825 million a year, could be
1:53:00
spent by Israel inside its own defense industry. But that
1:53:04
phase is down to zero by FY2028. Simon's warning is
1:53:08
that instead of... simply ending that support, the relationship would
1:53:11
be reorganized. Israeli firms and Israeli origin technology would become
1:53:16
more embedded inside U.S. defense procurement, co-production, research and development,
1:53:21
licensing, and sustainment programs. Plain English, the aid check could
1:53:25
disappear from public view while the financial support continues via
1:53:28
Pentagon budget. and procurement systems that are much harder for
1:53:31
the public to track. Foreign military financing is visible. We
1:53:34
can see when it's debated in Congress. We can see
1:53:37
when it's budgeted. And because it's foreign aid, lawmakers can
1:53:39
ask questions about conditions, accountability, and whether the support should
1:53:43
continue. Pentagon procurement is different. It runs through weapons contracts,
1:53:48
production lines. research programs, and co-production agreements. The language is
1:53:52
not diplomacy or human rights. It's readiness, capability, and whether
1:53:57
a system supports the U.S. military. What we have right
1:54:00
now, which is a foreign aid package, can be used
1:54:03
as leverage over their conduct. A co-production contract is treated
1:54:08
more like a business. arrangement. If the partner company delivers
1:54:11
the system, meets the contract terms, and supports the mission,
1:54:15
the contract has done what it was designed to do.
1:54:17
That's a major oversight gap. Simon's conclusion is blunt. Quieter
1:54:23
does not mean smaller. The financial flows could be as
1:54:26
large as or larger than. The current grant. They just
1:54:31
will not look like aid. Once these programs are embedded
1:54:33
in production lines, U.S. contractors, workers, and supply chain become
1:54:37
part of the argument to keep them going. Simon's point.
1:54:41
The support may not disappear. It may move into a
1:54:44
less visible system that is harder for the public. Yeah,
1:54:48
so I'm- I'm not against the integration of the technologies
1:54:52
and all that, but no, the Pentagon needs to pass
1:54:55
an audit before we can do anything with that. That's
1:54:58
a hole. It's a black hole. It'll cost us much,
1:55:03
much more. Yeah, this is typical. Where's the audit? Yeah.
1:55:07
Where's that even a theme? Why isn't Massey even mentioning
1:55:11
this, does he? Yes, thank you. No, of course not.
1:55:13
Big talk or blah, blah, blah. What about the audit,
1:55:16
dork? Yeah, that's why I'm against it. Stop that nonsense.
1:55:27
Although, you know, supposedly it's all better now. Hegs has
1:55:30
got his finger on the pulse. He's got his finger
1:55:35
on the pulse. He's going to take care of all
1:55:36
of it for us. And then, oh, I'm sorry. Go
1:55:40
ahead. Oh, go ahead. I'd play a clip that's kind
1:55:42
of fun. This is a... Out of New York. They're
1:55:49
really making headway there in New York State. Have you
1:55:53
heard about the gestating parents? gestating parents. No. Definitions in
1:55:59
New York. state, actually. New York Democrats argue the words
1:56:03
mother and father are outdated and need to be replaced
1:56:07
with more inclusive. terms under state law. All that's needed
1:56:10
now is Governor Kathy Hochul's signature. So if Hochul approves,
1:56:14
in New York's family court and in domestic and education
1:56:17
law, a mother would be labeled as a gestating parent,
1:56:20
a father as a non-gestating parent, and paternity proceedings to
1:56:25
determine the child's father would be called parentage proceedings. The
1:56:29
bill passed the state senate this week and the state
1:56:31
assembly back in March. Governor Hochul proudly calls herself New
1:56:35
York's first mom governor. No, gestating governor. She can't be
1:56:40
a mom governor. She has to be the gestating governor.
1:56:44
Yeah, I had heard about that. This to me exemplifies...
1:56:47
that it doesn't make a big difference whether Spencer wins
1:56:51
or loses the mayoral... spot in LA because the city
1:56:56
council in LA and the same in San Francisco, they're
1:56:59
all nuts. Yeah, they are. And you have the same
1:57:03
thing at the state level, the legislative body in New
1:57:07
York and California. are nuts. Yeah. They are. And what
1:57:13
are you going to do about it? Nothing. Keep podcasting.
1:57:15
Keep on going. We can do it. Keep podcasting. I
1:57:19
want to hear the Nick Reiner story before we take
1:57:21
a break here. Yeah, play this. Nick Reiner needs money.
1:57:25
New court documents tonight reveal a high-stakes fight in the
1:57:28
case against... Nick Reiner. He's the 32-year-old son of actor
1:57:32
and director Rob Reiner, who's accused of killing his parents
1:57:35
last December. Reiner wants a judge to order the release
1:57:38
of money from his trust fund. National correspondent Carter Evans
1:57:42
is here to explain how that fund might be used
1:57:45
for his defense. Carter. Well, good evening, Matt. Nick Reiner's
1:57:48
trust fund is worth an estimated $1.5 million, and today
1:57:52
his legal team filed a petition requesting access to that
1:57:56
money. Now, Reiner's attorneys argue he was entitled to receive
1:57:59
half of the trust when he turned 30, but that
1:58:01
never happened. Reiner is now 32. In the court filing,
1:58:05
Reiner's attorneys say the trustee who manages the fund knew
1:58:08
the... but is still refusing to release the money, citing
1:58:13
concerns regarding Nick's capacity to make sound decisions. Now, Reiner
1:58:17
says he needs the money to help pay for his
1:58:19
legal defense in his murder trial and to fund his
1:58:21
commissary account while he's in prison. The newly filed petition
1:58:25
suggests money may have already played a role in the
1:58:27
defense. High-profile defense... defense attorney Alan Jackson initially represented Reiner
1:58:32
but withdrew from the case and the documents reveal Reiner
1:58:36
sought trust distributions to potentially bring Jackson back onto the
1:58:39
case. Reiner is currently represented by a public defender. A
1:58:43
judge will now decide whether the money must be released
1:58:46
and if so, under what conditions. Ah, poor guy. -
1:58:52
He's nuts. yeah fund his commissary accounts 100 bucks a
1:58:57
month Uh... Let's just talk about Platner before we go,
1:59:01
because I find this to be kind of interesting. Yeah,
1:59:04
Platner got in. He breezed in. Platner, of course, is
1:59:07
the... Is the guy the right? wing loves to hate
1:59:10
and he's got a Nazi tattoo and he beats his
1:59:13
wives or beats his women, locks them up. He's a
1:59:17
mean a-hole and he's got a lot of Reddit posts
1:59:20
that are no good. Yeah, no good, no good. Do
1:59:24
you have a clip? Yeah, Plattner. Many Maine voters told
1:59:28
us today. they were willing to look past Graham Plattner's
1:59:31
controversies if it would help Democrats win back power in
1:59:34
Washington. I think it's so important that the Democrats capture
1:59:39
the Senate seat that I'm willing to vote for a
1:59:42
candidate whom I think is quite imperfect. Plattner himself did
1:59:46
some last-minute door-knocking. Continuing to make his case after allegations
1:59:51
from several former girlfriends appeared in the New York Times,
1:59:55
accusing him of unsettling and toxic behavior. One alleged he
1:59:59
grabbed her and left marks. There are some allegations in
2:00:02
this piece that I just want to be kind of
2:00:04
unequivocal about are simply not true. Plattner, an oyster farmer
2:00:08
and Marine veteran. has acknowledged he sent sexually explicit text
2:00:12
messages to other women early in his marriage. His wife
2:00:16
has defended him, and the two appear in a campaign
2:00:18
video released today. Just last night, his former political director
2:00:23
warned that Plattner should not be a U.S. senator, writing
2:00:26
he exhibits a pattern of dishonest behavior. That's impossible to
2:00:30
ignore. Plattner is still expected to win tonight, but with
2:00:33
control of the U.S. Senate on the line in November,
2:00:36
the questions about his past could be a liability as
2:00:40
he tries to take out the veteran Republican Susan Collins.
2:00:44
Plattner has caught fire among progressives here who say they
2:00:47
want a senator who can buck President Trump. Bernie Sanders
2:00:51
is Plattner's top supporter, and he said this week that
2:00:54
despite the controversies, he'll do everything he can to help
2:00:58
Plattner get elected. All right, well. David Brooks was not
2:01:04
happy with Platner. He had this to say about him.
2:01:08
Some people are dismissing. this as politically motivated. How are
2:01:11
you looking at all this? The guy's a moral degenerate.
2:01:14
You know, the abuse of women, the sexting, the Nazi
2:01:18
tattoo. I don't even need to say anything beyond his
2:01:21
Reddit posts, which are not in the past, by the
2:01:23
way. He did that for a long time, abusing rape
2:01:27
people who might have been raped. diminishing rape in the
2:01:30
military, insulting fellow military officers, calling himself a communist. It's
2:01:34
a pathetic, empty guy who postures in a way that's
2:01:39
kind of repulsive. There are 330 million Americans and there
2:01:42
are 100 senators. We can't have a decent human being
2:01:44
in those 100? We've got to settle for this? You
2:01:48
know, I just think The people, the Democrats are supporting
2:01:51
Platinum for the same reason the Trump people are supporting
2:01:53
Trump. Oh, okay, there it is. And I hate to
2:01:55
do this, but no show is complete without a clip
2:01:58
from The View. At the tone, a clip from The
2:02:00
View will be played. Shelter in place. Controversial Democratic Senate
2:02:07
candidate Graham Platner won the which could help his party
2:02:12
take the Senate. of inappropriate behavior against him and his
2:02:18
former campaign manager publicly pulling her support for him. people
2:02:22
are split on the baggage he's bringing into this general
2:02:26
election. rules the day and it stops being about people,
2:02:31
he'll lose me every time. We have literally witnessed some
2:02:34
of the most disgusting humans rising in power, handed over
2:02:37
by voters, and you are telling me we're going to
2:02:39
put another person up and turn our faces at the
2:02:42
human he's shown us he is. And it has nothing
2:02:45
to do with his marital discrepancies. I honestly, in this
2:02:48
day and age, Don't care. That's personal to me. That
2:02:51
Nazi tattoo that he supposedly has covered up and said
2:02:54
he didn't know what it meant, but many ex-girlfriends said
2:02:56
he used to proudly call it what it is, a
2:02:58
totem cough, which is a Nazi symbol. He has shown
2:03:02
us who he is. This was the party of Me
2:03:05
Too. Women have made accusations. They have not been proven
2:03:09
yet. But weren't we supposed to listen and hear them?
2:03:12
The numbers of anti-Semitic hate. And this guy proudly wore
2:03:15
a tattoo for years. And we're going to say, well,
2:03:18
this time, because we might agree with this policy, we
2:03:21
can turn our heads. I cannot turn my head, Susan.
2:03:23
Look, I don't think Republicans at this point can ask
2:03:26
us to take the moral high ground. There you go.
2:03:27
That is over. There you go. That is over. That's
2:03:31
right. I am sorry. Democrats have always fallen in love
2:03:35
and Republicans have always fallen in line. It's time for
2:03:38
Democrats to stop that nonsense, put emotions on the side.
2:03:41
Let's be strategic. Let's get some power. Let's take over
2:03:46
the Senate. Let's take over the House. Let's right the
2:03:49
ship. Let's get our country back. I am sorry. I
2:03:53
am someone that believes in character. I am someone that
2:03:56
believes that morals matter. But not now. Because of the
2:03:59
state of this country, I would, if I lived in
2:04:01
Maine, I would hold my nose and I would vote
2:04:04
for Platinum. Yeah, for Platinum. That's right. Totem cough? Is
2:04:09
that what they called it? Yeah, totem cough. Like C-O-U-G-H?
2:04:14
No, no, cop. Yeah, head. Oh, totem cough. Oh, totem
2:04:17
cough. Like scheiss cough. I like totem cough myself as
2:04:21
a show title. Totem Cough Okay, breaking news, breaking news.
2:04:28
The deal could be signed this weekend! No, there goes
2:04:32
the market. No, actually, looking at oil is down almost
2:04:37
5% right now. It's 86. That's what you want. Yeah,
2:04:41
yeah. Yeah, and then the market, the stock market is
2:04:43
skyrocketing. Yeah, what do you mean? Oh, I thought you
2:04:45
meant it was bad. No, the... Dow Jones, 929. NASDAQ
2:04:51
up 640. It's primed for Elon. It's beautiful. It's going
2:04:55
to be beautiful. Tomorrow's going to be fantastic. Can't wait
2:04:58
to see. For you, Len. Yeah, for you. Well, yeah,
2:05:00
for you. What, tell me you don't have friends and
2:05:02
family stock? Not for that. No. And apparently the president
2:05:10
has nominated Jay Clayton to be the director of national
2:05:13
intelligence. So, I don't know, that seems a little quick.
2:05:18
I thought Pulte had some business to take care of.
2:05:21
Maybe he already did. We'll have to see. So I
2:05:25
have one last clip. play. Which is a, I'm thinking
2:05:31
of making this a, like a segment. An item, a
2:05:34
segment. Yes, we need a jingle. And this is about,
2:05:38
and this segment is what I'm going to call First
2:05:41
World Problems. Oh, wait, I thought we had it. Oh,
2:05:44
no, you had a segment before, which is that didn't
2:05:47
happen. Well, that didn't happen as different than first world
2:05:52
problems. I know, but you've never followed up. So, okay,
2:05:55
we need a jingle for it. Well, I mean, I
2:05:57
could add that too, but I haven't been able to
2:06:00
find enough that didn't happen. So I think I can
2:06:02
find plenty of these. Okay. Do you want an on-the-fly
2:06:06
jingle? First World War! problems. We've got to start fighting
2:06:15
back against these coffee shops. I got a coffee yesterday.
2:06:17
I got an ice. I got a latte. It was
2:06:21
an extra 50 cents to add ice. That should be
2:06:23
illegal. I'm sorry. You're a coffee shop. Coffee comes ice
2:06:26
sometimes. Don't charge me 50 cents. for it. I got
2:06:29
an extra dollar to add vanilla. I know they didn't
2:06:32
make that in-house. I know that's a bottle of Monin
2:06:34
or whatever it's called. They charged me a dollar for
2:06:37
almond milk. In the year of 2026, alternative milk should
2:06:40
not be a dollar more. It shouldn't be any upcharge
2:06:42
at all, but it certainly should not be a dollar
2:06:44
because your dairy milk should not be the cheapest shit
2:06:47
you can find at the store. So all in all,
2:06:49
$8.50 for my iced vanilla latte. That was not exceptional
2:06:54
in any way. $8.50 for my iced vanilla latte with
2:06:57
a tip, so $9.50. 9.50 for an iced vanilla latte?
2:07:02
I made a better one this morning at my house
2:07:05
with my Nespresso. These coffee shops are... Out of control.
2:07:09
Out, out, out, out, out of control. This is the
2:07:13
generation that says they have not ever witnessed prosperity like
2:07:16
their parents? Yeah. Yeah, okay. Well, we'll get a jingle.
2:07:23
You should bring more of those. In the meantime... I
2:07:25
think there's plenty to be had. I think you're right.
2:07:28
People need mundane, banal complaints about the price of an
2:07:34
ice mocha vanilla almond latte. And with that, I would
2:07:39
like to thank you for your courage and say in
2:07:41
the morning to you, the man who put the C
2:07:43
in Charlie, come lately, say hello to my friend on
2:07:45
the other end, the one, the only mister. *DRAAAAAAAMN* Well,
2:07:52
good morning to you, Mr. Adam Curry. Good morning to
2:07:53
all the ships at sea, boots on the ground, feet
2:07:55
in the air, subs in the water, and the dames
2:07:56
and knights out there. Oh, I'm missing all the noisemakers.
2:07:59
That's too bad we don't have those. 1319 today on
2:08:04
the troll count who are listening live at no agenda
2:08:07
stream calm or use using one of the modern podcast
2:08:10
apps, turns out that the number two most used app
2:08:13
for this podcast, there was a survey done recently over
2:08:17
at livewire.io. So number one is Apple, legacy app with
2:08:21
about 30%. Number two is Podverse. That's quite extraordinary. That,
2:08:30
you know, we have been promoting the alternative and modern
2:08:34
podcast apps and people are actually using it. And the
2:08:36
reason why, well, there's two that I can think of
2:08:38
besides transcripts, chapters, location, people tag, all kinds of cool
2:08:43
stuff. Did you just, what was that sound you made?
2:08:49
You're slurping. Stop slurping. The benefits, within 90 seconds of
2:08:55
publishing the podcast, it will show up in your modern
2:08:57
podcast app through the Podping technology. That is something that
2:09:00
you will not get with the legacy apps. And when
2:09:04
we go live, we fire off the bat signal and
2:09:06
you will be able to listen to the live. broadcast
2:09:09
in your podcast app. This is something that is just
2:09:12
not available anywhere else. I don't think they're ever going
2:09:14
to do it. I don't know why, because they would
2:09:16
capture so much, but that's fine. We're happy to do
2:09:19
it with our modern podcast apps, podcastapps.com. We are value
2:09:23
for value here at the No Agenda Show. Soon to
2:09:26
be celebrating our ninth. 19th anniversary in October, and we
2:09:30
have never had an ad. We've never taken corporate money.
2:09:34
We've never put you on subscriptions that you can't get
2:09:36
off of. All we've said is if you get value
2:09:39
out of the show for any reason, you laughed, you
2:09:41
cried, you got mad, you learned something, got a stock
2:09:45
tip, felt smarter about yourself. felt better about yourself, had
2:09:50
something to talk about at the water cooler, you were
2:09:52
informed, just send the value back to us any way
2:09:55
that you want to, time, talent, or treasure. We love
2:09:58
the boots on the ground. We love the expert. I
2:10:00
mean, we have the best and the most producers of
2:10:03
any podcast, probably any media property in the universe at
2:10:06
all, because we do this collectively. And by the same
2:10:09
token, we also need the treasure because we need to
2:10:12
be able to pay the bills. And one way that
2:10:14
people always like to help out is by giving us
2:10:17
some artwork to use for our album art. We've been
2:10:21
changing that for, gosh, almost since the beginning. putting different
2:10:27
art into our into our podcast. And once again, the
2:10:32
artwork came not just as artwork, but we knew that
2:10:36
when we chose it, it would be accompanied by a
2:10:38
video. We congratulate Francisco Scaramanga for bringing us the Spank
2:10:44
the Press art, which a lot of people liked. And
2:10:47
I knew it. I knew he would do a video.
2:10:49
and he did not disappoint. Did you see the video?
2:10:52
It was good. Yeah, there's spanking the press. Spanking the
2:10:57
press is a good thing. I really, and I think
2:11:01
I even said if he doesn't do a video, we're
2:11:03
never choosing him again. You didn't say that, but it's
2:11:06
a funny, it's a good threat. What you said was...
2:11:09
If he keeps doing videos, we're going to not pick
2:11:13
anybody else unless they start doing videos too. That's what
2:11:16
I said. Yes, thank you for reminding me. That's right.
2:11:18
Because the videos is cool. Everybody can do them. And
2:11:21
it gives extra bonus points for the show. It's great.
2:11:26
There are a couple other pieces of art that we
2:11:29
look like. A lot of... screw worm art. I liked
2:11:32
blue acorn screw worm. You thought it was too gruesome?
2:11:35
You didn't want that one. Ryan M. Scott spammed the
2:11:41
art generator, noartgenerator.com. Then there was Harvey Weinstein spanking the
2:11:47
press. No. A lot of... big boobs. With tomahawks, no.
2:11:54
Um... The devil phone, Matthew Dropko. He had the right
2:11:58
idea, not a great execution. Personally, I kind of like
2:12:02
the back rooms. You thought it was nothing. It was
2:12:06
the... It was a takeoff on the movie. Oh yeah,
2:12:10
I didn't like that at all. You didn't like that.
2:12:12
Well, I hadn't seen the movie and I... You thought
2:12:15
it was no good. You thought it was no good.
2:12:17
No, you had the thesis. You said, the young, the
2:12:21
kids, them kids are going to see that and they're
2:12:24
going to think we're hip. That's exactly how I talked
2:12:26
about it. And then there was the... Was the boobs
2:12:30
calculator, I know you used it for the newsletter, was
2:12:32
that part of this run as well? The speak and
2:12:36
spell. I think it was. No. No, was that the
2:12:39
previous? I'm not sure. We get so much art. I
2:12:43
think it was the previous. Yeah. Yeah. We get a
2:12:46
lot of art. And I don't know if we have
2:12:48
the one we'll pick. yet so there's plenty of time
2:12:51
for you to upload to noagendaartgenerator.com we love going through
2:12:56
it it also shows us the things that hit during
2:13:00
the show gives us a good idea of what people
2:13:02
like hearing and we appreciate all of the work the
2:13:05
prompting that everybody does And now for the talent. portion
2:13:10
or that i'm sorry the treasure portion of time talents
2:13:12
and treasure which you can support the show by going
2:13:15
to noagendadonations.com and it can be any amount we love
2:13:19
the uh the numerology of it Love that when people
2:13:23
just come up with something crazy. We've had a lot
2:13:26
over the years. And we start. with John from Meridianville,
2:13:32
Alabama, who was kind enough to send us $1,000. He
2:13:37
added the fees, which is $30.26, and he says, Dear
2:13:42
Adam and John, I've been listening to the show for
2:13:43
longer than I would like to admit as a douchebag,
2:13:46
but after John's publicity stunt... I have been compelled to
2:13:50
donate. Not long after John rejoined the show, my dad
2:13:54
had a similar incident resulting in a quadruple bypass. Witnessing
2:13:59
John's steady recovery provided comfort and helped reduce the anxiety
2:14:03
that comes from watching a family member undergo such an
2:14:05
extensive procedure. I'm happy to report he is doing well.
2:14:09
and is well on his way to a full recovery.
2:14:11
We're happy to hear that. As for me, I'm a
2:14:14
recently retired Army Defense Artillery Officer with 22 years of
2:14:18
experience operating and planning for the... employment, he says, deployment
2:14:26
of air defense systems from mud to space. I'm currently
2:14:30
at the epicenter of air and missile defense development in
2:14:33
the Huntsville, Alabama area, and I'm looking forward to providing
2:14:35
my insights into recent events as we have seen a
2:14:38
decisive shift to drone-centric warfare coupled with large volleys of
2:14:43
ballistic and cruise missiles. You are hereby going to have
2:14:47
to provide us boots on the ground. Yes. For my
2:14:50
night name, I would like to be called Sir Tin
2:14:52
Lee Hungwell. Sir Tin Lee Hungwell, Red Knight of the
2:14:58
Rocket City, and would like to splurge on one of
2:15:00
those $800 tomahawk ribeyes for the roundtable. Apologies for the
2:15:04
long note. No thank you for your courage. No jingles,
2:15:07
no karma. I will give him a detail. You've been
2:15:11
de-douched. Okay, Michael Miller. In Sausalito, California, 103026. Glad you
2:15:25
two are still putting out the best podcast in the
2:15:28
universe. Looking forward to the lapel pin to add to
2:15:32
my no agenda paraphernalia. Karma for all. Oh, comma for
2:15:36
all. Oops, I'm sorry. Sorry, I screwed that up. Where's
2:15:39
my comma for all? There we go. You've got karma.
2:15:44
I want to mention something I want to put in
2:15:46
the newsletter. Okay. And I'm thinking about... Maybe we should
2:15:49
rethink. one of our old promotions. Okay. So if you
2:15:55
look at... When Trump is sitting, I think it's in
2:16:00
the Oval Office behind his desk. On his immediate left
2:16:05
side, there's a bunch of photos of his old family
2:16:08
and stuff. And on his right side, and I have
2:16:11
a picture out which I'll put in the newsletter eventually.
2:16:14
sooner than later. uh a display of what appears to
2:16:20
be a probably 50 challenge coins of all sorts. Yes,
2:16:25
we used to be big on the challenge coins. And
2:16:30
it just looks cool. And so the president of the
2:16:33
United States, who sets the moral tone for the nation,
2:16:36
according to every political science course you'll ever take. is
2:16:41
into challenge coins. It sounds like an opportunity. It just
2:16:45
hasn't been discussed. Somebody, some reporter is going to have
2:16:47
to ask him about it. because I haven't heard anything.
2:16:49
About his challenge coins? Yeah, he's got a ton of
2:16:52
them. They're right off his right shoulder. Well, because he's
2:16:54
hanging out with the military all the time. So, you
2:16:58
know, Mr. President, I want to give you this challenge
2:17:01
coin. I get it. He doesn't have to display them.
2:17:06
Well, don't you display yours? I have a lot of
2:17:11
them. Yeah. I display mine proudly. I got some really
2:17:16
cool ones. Yeah, I got some cool ones too. Thank
2:17:20
you, Michael Miller. Walter Bax is in London. That's in
2:17:24
Ontario. in uh... candanavia now he sent us $1,000 Canadian,
2:17:31
which sadly comes out to $716.46. However, we do honor
2:17:36
the dollarettes and the dollary dues. He's a first-time donator.
2:17:40
And every time I hear the order of the heart
2:17:42
jingle, it tugs at my heartstrings. I hope you'll honor
2:17:45
my 1,000 Canadian dollarettes. as it will be my honor
2:17:49
to be Sir Walter Back's Order of the Heart. Thanks
2:17:52
for all... Red Knight, Order of the Heart. Thanks for
2:17:54
all you do. Yes, I think that is approved in
2:17:57
advance, and we'll also give you a dedouche. You've been
2:18:02
dedouched. Yes, we obviously are going to go for that.
2:18:08
We had another guy, which was coming up later, who
2:18:11
said it's $300 in Canadian. dollars literally in cash. Oh
2:18:16
wow. The new plastic money. Can we even swap that?
2:18:20
Can we even get that out? I have to go
2:18:22
to an exchange or something. I'm not sure where I'm
2:18:24
gonna because the our bank that we use used to
2:18:27
do it. when they stopped. We'll figure it out. 361
2:18:32
Black Sheep in Johnson City, Tennessee 341 for 63. This
2:18:35
donation is reflective of my father's birthday 5/14/51. He passed
2:18:39
away while I was in Kuwait. I was coming home
2:18:42
for his service but then we were evacuated due to
2:18:46
ongoing tensions. My prayer, which was answered, I believe, was
2:18:51
for him to accept Jesus Christ late in his cancer
2:18:54
battle with the help of the pastor he did. His
2:18:56
last act, according to his wife, was to reach up.
2:19:00
at three o'clock-ish in the morning, then he expired. My
2:19:04
hope and prayer is that he found what I and
2:19:08
so many others. found salvation prayers for you both. This
2:19:11
donation is a switcheroo in honor of Claude Kitchen Van
2:19:15
Jr., retired Navy air traffic controller. Give him some. I'm
2:19:20
going to give you the whole load and some karma
2:19:24
of your choice, Adam. God bless, Sir E61 Black Sheep.
2:19:30
I'm going to give you the whole load today. You've
2:19:34
got karma. And we go to London in the UK,
2:19:41
Sir Luke Rayner. well known adam and john has been
2:19:44
15 years since my first donation and with this 346
2:19:48
dollars i've finally become a duke. When I was knighted
2:19:52
in 2014, I joked I'd one day be Sir Luke
2:19:55
the Duke. And here we are. Thank you, Adam and
2:19:58
John, for all the laughs of media deconstruction. It was
2:20:00
great to meet you both at the London meetups. No
2:20:03
coffee or honey to promote, but I do have a
2:20:05

Dennis. Dame Lisa, Foxborough, Massachusetts, with the favorite 333.33 sent
2:22:24
in a note and says, Adam and John, I'm enclosing
2:22:26
my annual donation. The show is worth 10 times this.
2:22:29
But I hope it helps with your donation drought and
2:22:32
keeps John off the ledge for a few more weeks.
2:22:34
Yes, we all want to keep John off the ledge.
2:22:37
John, congrats on your recovery from the, hey, I'm still
2:22:40
awake, bypass surgery. Quite impressive. And kudos to Adam, who
2:22:45
seamlessly and professionally kept the show going with Mimi. I
2:22:48
enjoyed her stories and getting insight. into the Dvorak marriage.
2:22:52
I'm wondering if either of you listen to Promethean Action
2:22:55
Podcast, and if so, what are your thoughts? Yes, I...
2:22:59
We clip it. We clip it. We do. We like
2:23:02
it a lot. I like those ladies. I don't want
2:23:05
to risk John's... They're a bit much, but they're, you
2:23:07
know... I like those ladies. It's three times a week,
2:23:10
15 minutes. It's not that bad. It's the long, like,
2:23:14
they do a show on... Frank, quite frankly, is a
2:23:17
big fan of theirs, too. They do a long, like,
2:23:20
live show on Thursdays. That's tough to get through. But
2:23:24
I do like the short 15 minutes. I don't want
2:23:27
to risk John's wrath with a long note. So no
2:23:29
jingles, only baby-making karma for my daughter. As from Dame
2:23:33
Lisa of Amic Lake in Foxborough, Massachusetts. You've got... Harma.
2:23:46
Damian Killoran in Venice, Florida. And look at this, he
2:23:51
sent in a note. Two notes in a row. In
2:23:54
the morning, crackpot and buzz goes another long note, I
2:23:57
might add. Today's got a lot of notes that are
2:23:59
really too long. First time donor, please de-douche me. You've
2:24:05
been de-douched. I know he's going to want boogity, boogity
2:24:08
and job. karma for all i was hitting the mouth

2:26:22
from Bob Stanhope in Great Forks, British. Columbia And so
2:26:28
that's... Canadian dollar dues. Yeah, it is the cash. Good
2:26:34
morning from Grand Forks, BC, Canada, men. The pilgrimage to
2:26:39
knighthood continues. You may recall having trouble cashing my checks
2:26:42
a few weeks ago, working on the premise you never
2:26:44
were able to cash it as it never cleared on
2:26:46
my end. Is that true? We never cleared it, never
2:26:48
cached it. Oh, that check. Yep. Yeah. Here's the problem
2:26:54
with that. I should have sent it back to him.
2:26:56
I have it sitting on the, on the, on the.
2:27:00
in a spot where I was going to do that.
2:27:04
So here's the problem with Canadian checks. I've always said,
2:27:08
yeah, send Canadian checks. Yeah. So our bank which uses
2:27:13
uh used to use a very they had banks are
2:27:16
like uh microservices architecture nowadays yes true So they have
2:27:22
like, oh yeah, we have a service provider. They won't
2:27:25
cash Canadian checks. We used to have a different one
2:27:28
that did. Now the new guy won't. Were they going
2:27:31
to change that? Because it's inconvenient for us businessmen. We're
2:27:37
trying to find a new provider. Okay. Well, how about
2:27:40
this? Just use Bitcoin, man. Use the Bitcoin. Get yourself
2:27:46
some 300 Canadian dollar or dues in Bitcoin and use
2:27:49
the Bitcoin. Bitcoin QR code. He did the right thing.
2:27:53
He sent some, well, again, it's going to be a
2:27:55
plastic money. We'll see. We'll see. Real plastic. And it's
2:27:59
really plasticky. So I'm enclosing 300 Canadian dollaroos. Let's hope
2:28:04
the bank will accept it. Keep up the good work.
2:28:05
Keep the faith. And most importantly, stay dangerous. No jingles,
2:28:09
no karma. You will love Bob Stanhope, a guy who

2:37:44
was held on June the 6th at Fatmus Bila Tverka

Kyiv Oblast, Ukraine. Successful meeting! Assembly, one Dutch douchebag, birthday
2:37:54
boy, dude named Ben, one Ukrainian master healer of animals,
2:37:58
plus spouse, one Dutch wizard of machinery, plants and concrete,
2:38:02
spouse and human resource, one deputy director and right hand
2:38:05
of the cow whisperer married to one guru of cost,
2:38:09
prices and liquidity. Wow. They had steaks, cold charcuterie, young
2:38:14
potatoes, grilled vegetables, cake, beer, brandy, gin, tonic, and coffee.
2:38:19
So he says that progress report, Ukrainian economy supported, mouths
2:38:24
hit, formula propagated, donations collected, air raid, audible, mood, joyful,
2:38:30
human resource, strong dislike for... pickles detected and loudly expressed.

mixes with a dynamite jingle at the very end. But
2:40:31
first. Time to listen to the ISOs. And I have
2:40:35
two, you have two. You sent them as bonus clips,
2:40:37
which is not really true. They were ISOs. It wasn't
2:40:40
bonus, but I got them. And I will play mine
2:40:43
first. So proud of what you're doing. Keep it up,
2:40:45
man. Let me try this next one. This is above
2:40:51
and beyond. anything. Kind of like that. Okay, well what
2:40:57
do you have? Oh my god. I have two, as
2:41:01
you mentioned. I couldn't get any more celebrities. My tokens
2:41:06
all ran out. You burned your tokens. There's a scam
2:41:11
going on, too. With the tokens? No, with these websites.
2:41:15
There's a bunch of these celebrity voice, you know, AI
2:41:18
websites. and they're all run by, you can tell, they're
2:41:22
all... fronts for the same operation. Well, duh. You go
2:41:27
to this one and it looks the same as that
2:41:30
one. And then you go to that one and it
2:41:31
looks the same as the other one. And they're all
2:41:33
the same. They got the same voices and then they
2:41:35
got the same. Oh, join with your Google account. So
2:41:39
you do that and you get the exact same screens.
2:41:41
And you bought tokens? No, I bought nothing. Those are
2:41:44
all the stuff you get free. Oh, okay. Okay, so
2:41:48
what do you got? Well, let's start with geniuses. These
2:41:51
two geniuses nailed it again. Wow, she went to British
2:41:55
at the end there. These two geniuses nailed it again.
2:41:57
Interesting. Eh, okay. I feel like British tried this good.
2:42:02
Why can't more podcasts be this good? Let's try that
2:42:09
again. Why can't more podcasts be this good? Yeah, I
2:42:12
think we should take... that one that's pretty good better
2:42:14
than the ones i have But before we take anything,
2:42:18
it's time for John's Tip of the Day. ♪ That's
2:42:22
for you and me, just the two of us with
2:42:26
JCB ♪ and sometimes Adam. We're going back to the
2:42:30
well here with the only tips that anyone really likes.
2:42:34
Costco wine. Yes, we always pine for the Costco wine.
2:42:39
Okay, here's a $7.90. 9 cents, $7.96. uh that's what
2:42:47
i paid it could be very by a buck or
2:42:49
two here and there and this is just a stunner
2:42:53
It's a low alcohol. summer wine. We're entering summer, so
2:42:58
it's about time we started drinking this stuff. It's the
2:43:02
Kirkland Signature Moscato D'Asti. Mmm. Now Moscato D'Asti is an
2:43:08
area of Italy that makes this sweet, low alcohol, slightly
2:43:12
spritzy. Should be spritzy. Spritzy? Yes, spritzy. Spritzy. A slightly
2:43:19
spritzy wine that is so good. And I just say
2:43:24
right off, I've had probably 20 examples of this product
2:43:29
from different vendors. They're all terrific. I've never had a
2:43:34
bad one. I don't know if they can make a
2:43:35
bad one. It's just one of those falling off a
2:43:38
log wines. And this stuff is so tasty that on
2:43:43
a hot afternoon, chilled, it's a stunner. Now, does it
2:43:47
come in like 6%, 5%, 6% alcohol? Does it come
2:43:51
in flavors? No, it's a musket grape. So what kind
2:43:56
of flavor is that? It's a muscat. I know, but
2:43:59
is it sweet? Is it... Yeah, it's a sweet wine.
2:44:02
It's a sweet, spritzy, refreshing, dynamite product. So it has
2:44:07
carbonation in it? Yeah, it's always had carbonation a little
2:44:10
bit. So, but not like... Like champagne? No, not like
2:44:13
champagne. Oh, okay. So it's a wine cooler is what
2:44:16
you're saying. It's beyond any wine cooler you think you've
2:44:21
had. What was the name of that? It was really
2:44:24
popular for a while in the college girls. No, no,
2:44:29
no, no. We call them. What was the name of
2:44:31
that? It was like a Spritzer drink and all the
2:44:34
girls were drinking it. The girls would love this stuff.
2:44:38
I'm trying to think what that was called, though. It
2:44:40
was... Come on, chat room, help him out. I don't
2:44:44
know what he's talking about. They're no good. They're no
2:44:46
good. It was really popular in... in Europe too. Zima?
2:44:52
No, not Zima. It was something else. Oh, Zima's terrible.
2:44:57
Zima was something with a B. It was something with
2:45:00
a B. Breezer. That's what it was. Breezer. I remembered
2:45:04
by myself. Breezer. Well, that's not a breezer. It's a
