The batteries go dead.
Adam Curry, John C. DeVore.
It's Thursday, August 10th, 2023.
This is your award-winning Kibo Nation Media Assassination Episode 1580.
This is no agenda.
Burning up the beaches and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country
here in FEMA Region No. 6 in the morning, everybody.
I'm Adam Curry.
Yeah.
And from Northern Silicon Valley where we're all wondering, when's Joe Biden resigning? I'm John Curry. Yeah. And from Northern Silicon Valley, where we're all wondering
when's Joe Biden resigning?
I'm John C. Dvorak.
It's Crackpot and Buzzkill
in the morning.
Wow. Did you get a new toy?
I don't know. This is that same
thing that was sharing
whoever it is that sent me all these noisemakers.
Yeah, it sounds like a drum.
It sounds like a proper drum is what it sounds like.
It does, it does, but it's not.
Oh.
It's a skin.
Oh.
Over, it looks like a drum, except it's not, didn't have all the other elements, you know,
that you can change, that you can tighten it and do this and that.
It's more like a tambourine without the cymbal thingies.
Oh, all right.
Well, I think we should start with the obvious the top of the news everybody
we've got hawaii burning on maui tonight fire crews are fighting to contain a massive brush fire
it's along honoa pei lani highway in ma'alaya the maui fire department says six thousand acres have
already burned pamela young has the latest Maui firefighters say this streak of flame
might have started as a flare-up.
I'm sorry, that's 2016.
This is the report I meant.
A wildfire rages across Hawaii's Maui Island,
threatening homes in the western area of Lahaina.
The deadly blaze has forced people
from the emergency shelters,
which was set up by U.S. as Hurricane Lane
neared the island. Authorities fear that the wildfire might have incinerated homes even.
I'm sorry, that's 2018. Oh, goodness. Let me get the current report.
Three wildfires killed several people and burned down hundreds of structures on the
island of Maui. Fueled by the winds of Hurricane Dora,
which passed south of the island and was a normally safe distance of 800 kilometers away,
the blazes left, according to pilots,
apocalyptic landscapes in the past.
They have really upgraded the language
on this frequently occurring thing.
We were not prepared for what we saw.
How could you not be prepared?
It happened in 2016, 2018.
What we saw looked like an area that had been bombed and burned in a war zone.
The Coast Guard rescued over a dozen people who were forced into the ocean to escape the flames.
I love that, by the way.
Combined with dry grasslands, added to blazes' ferocity and speed.
So you have dry vegetation that is, when there's a spark, it's easier for that vegetation to ignite and for the wildfire to spread.
Climate change in many parts of the world is increasing vegetation dryness.
Hawaii opened several shelters to house the up to 4 000 displaced and maui's main airport
was sheltering some 2 000 people seeking you heard it there you heard of climate change increasing
vaginal dryness i mean they should totally have a disclaimer on all the medications
this happens every couple of years in maui you could probably go back further oh easily thank
you i was wondering where you're going to do this story at all
until I realized you're going to do the,
what I consider the lowest of the low tricks on this show.
It's the best.
The lowest of the low.
No, come on, man.
This is something you easily could have done.
I would never.
No, no.
Did you, wait,
did you actually do this yourself?
No.
I didn't, no.
I have no Maui clips.
But you have to understand.
I do have to say it's funny.
Just the imagery they like to put in people's minds of people jumping off the island into the ocean.
You have to understand it's working.
Climate change is real.
We go to C-SPAN independent line.
Sergio in Schenectady, New York, independent. Yes, good morning, C-SPAN Independent Line. Sergio in Schenectady, New York.
Independent.
Yes, good morning, C-SPAN, for taking my call.
Two points that I wanted to make.
I just don't understand the disconnect of reality of people saying that climate change is not occurring.
Climate change is not.
I mean, a simple thing.
I had to have my homeowner's insurance just renewed.
And my insurance bill went up 25%. Oh, no. Why? Why? Hurricanes, floods, etc.
We're seeing the effects of climate change all over.
And there's just this denialism that I just don't understand.
OK, my bill went up. So climate change is real.
Wow. This is how the scam works.
It's a beautiful scam and then the best thing ever
from the biden administration four years four years people laughed people laughed people laughed
and now they're just going to do it as the body administration signals its fight against global
warming may actually involve blocking sunlight the white house posting research claiming quote
solar radiation modification would enable better informed decisions about the potential risk and benefits of SRM as a component of climate policy alongside the foundational elements of greenhouse gas emissions mitigation.
Come on, man.
They're calling it SRM.
Just call it what it is.
You've been doing this for years. Come on, man. They're calling it SRM. Just call it what it is. Entrails.
You've been doing this for years.
And now we're just, oh, we'll just call it SRM.
Solar Radiation Modification.
This cannot be a good idea.
This has got to be the worst idea ever.
And Bill Gates seems to be leading it.
Well, there's already been a movie about it.
Which movie was that?
Snowpiercer. Someone. Which movie was that? Snowpiercer.
Someone, now what was that?
There was someone who said Snowpiercer was an obvious follow-up to some other movie.
I got to look that up.
Now, isn't Snowpiercer also a series?
Yeah, the series is no good.
It's the movie you want to watch.
Yeah, the series is no good.
It's the movie you want to watch.
Anyway, all of this brings us to a fabulous piece of television production on PBS.
PBS looked into climate change, and climate change is so severe.
The fear that we have pumped into people's heads, the fear.
It's so bad that we need therapists to help us.
Leslie Davenport is a climate psychology therapist. She teaches at the California Institute of Integral Studies
and is author of Emotional Resiliency in the Era of Climate Change.
Leslie, when does healthy concern about the planet, about climate change,
become this sort of climate anxiety?
Well, from the emerging field of climate psychology.
Emerging field, mind you.
It's all brand new and I'm leading the charge. important to understand is we view distress upset sadness grief anger about climate change to be a
really reasonable even healthy reaction because it's built into a reasonable healthy yes it's a
very healthy reaction when you're being when you're bullshitted into getting depressed over a non-existent climate change narrative.
That's healthy?
Well, the reality is people believe this.
They have been BS'd into this.
They have been bullied into it.
They had the fear.
Just look at the maps.
The map, you know, it's like the same temperatures 10 years ago.
Only now the map is red.
We're burning up.
We're burning alive.
I had that picture in the news. They we're burning up we're burning alive that picture
the news though they change the colors we're jumping into the ocean temperatures or lower
but they bake the bread we've got to jump into the ocean it's so bad to be a really reasonable
even healthy reaction i can't understand even what reaction was here to get be a really reasonable
even healthy reaction?
Healthy reactions.
Healthy.
John, it's healthy when you're being propagandized out.
Yeah, because it's built into us as people that if we feel risks, threats, amygdala, that's experienced losses, there's going to be upset.
That's experience loss is going to be upset. So it's really important to acknowledge that if you're feeling that on any level of intensity, it really means you're paying attention. You care. You're empathetic to what's happening to our world.
But when does it become a problem? When does it become something that people feel they should go talk to someone about wow well with uh when you're no longer when you're
overboard from the no agenda show it's going to become a problem you're going to start freaking
out from all this stuff that's when you need to go well it can certainly grow into something that
interferes with functioning in daily life keeps you awake at night uh gets in the way of enjoying life and becomes really the predominant concern
high levels of physiological distress racing hearts uh intrusive thoughts it can take many
many forms don't worry we got a pill for you but here is the kicker of this piece there are three groups, three main groups who are suffering severely from climate...
What was it actually? What did she call it?
Well, she's a climate psychology therapist.
So people who... There are three groups who suffer the most from fear, irrational fear of climate change,
and therefore need to go speak to a therapist.
No, no, no. Wrong.
It's rational and healthy so three groups can you even guess the top group who suffers the most from climate anxiety
transgenders. Not even close.
It's much better than that.
You have a private practice in the Pacific Northwest and in California.
Are you seeing more people coming to you talking about this?
I sure do.
And I sure have.
I'd say there's been a big leap in the last five years.
And there are three groups I see the most.
One are people working in this field
the actual people who work in the field my goodness they're freaking themselves
out about this okay clip of the day right away no wonder this stuff works so well What kind of advice do you give people that are freaked out and they go to see a psychologist?
Oh, I'm freaked out about climate change.
What do you tell them?
You tell them it's healthy.
Keep going.
It's healthy.
And there are three groups I see the most.
One are people working in this field.
Frontline workers, scientists who are studying this.
Wait, wait, wait.
Frontline workers?
What is that?
I don't know, man.
This is circular psychiatry is what this is.
I love the frontline workers, the frontline.
John, where are you?
Frontline of the climate change.
Frontline worker.
I'm a frontline worker of climate change, everybody.
Frontline worker scientists who are studying this.
Oh, it's the scientists who are frontline workers.
Oh, so someone's studying it is suddenly a frontline worker.
I'm a frontline.
I like the way we redefine these terms that actually have meaning.
Well, it brings it back to COVID.
You know, so that's, it's all, it's all, she is in fact.
It actually brings us back to 9-11.
Oh, thank you.
That's even better.
Yes.
Yes.
It's all trauma-based programming.
And she is, she's probably MKUltra herself to do this.
But that's how it works.
You traumatize people and keep hammering that stuff in there.
And now because we have summer summer we have
front line workers i should mention that we do have clips in the archives if you since you put
this together you might have considered playing a couple of the little girls that are basically
crying in the street because of climate change there was a couple of these that were in england
it was really a problem because there'd be just
a girl or a girl in the street crying about climate change. It was just pathetic. I'm not
sure that I can find it that easily, crying. I'll look for it. We'll listen to the clip.
Frontline workers, scientists who are studying this and recognizing what a dangerous trajectory
we're on. Two are people who've been touched very directly about with big losses, lost their home in the fires in Santa Rosa a couple of years ago, have had to decide if they want us to live in a fire prone area.
Here's a thought. No, no, certainly not. If you're going to have that kind of electricity being managed for you, the woods being managed for you.
And there's a very high level of distress among children and youth.
This is a time when they naturally glance into their future, deciding where they want to live, what they want to do, young adults, if they want to start a family.
And they're quite upset about the prospects of what their future may
entail you're right we go back to february of 2019 hi my name is iris and i'm 11 and um
i i love our family i don't want everything to stop and if we do want everything to stop
then we can write me about it at the moment.
And this isn't good.
Alright, so they're terrorizing your children with this
nonsense.
And it's working. It's just working.
Terrorizing children in every way
they can. So let's bring out the big
guns. Mask up!
Let's bring out the big guns. We up! Let's bring out the big guns.
We've got to take advantage of this because the summer is nearing the end.
We've got to get going.
We've got to bring it.
Bring out Polly!
Jane Polly!
Bring her out!
Politicians may still debate it, but it's getting harder and harder to deny.
With temperatures climbing to new heights everywhere.
Something's going on out there.
Oh, yeah.
David Pogue takes us to Phoenix, where the heat is on.
Going to Phoenix, where it's hot as hell.
Where it's never been hot.
It's hot as hell every single year.
But something's up this year.
David Pogue.
Man, we're bringing out everybody.
We need a special report.
Get Jane Pauley.
We need David Pogue. We need the special report. Get Jane Pauly. We need David Pogue.
We need the works.
Ooh, crickets.
The last eight years
have been the hottest years
ever measured on the planet.
Okay, thanks, brother.
July was the hottest month
ever recorded.
July 6th was the hottest day.
In all human history,
since the dinosaurs and beyond.
All over the planet.
Hold on, hold on.
They have a kind of a funny gotcha in the parsing of what he says when he says ever recorded.
Yeah, of course.
Of course.
Although they are making a stretch of it when they say in the last 250,000 years.
This is all bull. It's all boom yeah but it's well done yeah july 6 was the hottest day all over the planet
the heat broke temperature records including in siberia oh no 103 degrees more than half the u.s
population was subject to heat warnings in july here in Phoenix, Arizona, the heat has broken all kinds of records,
including the longest streak of consecutive days where the temperature hit 110 degrees or hotter.
Really cooking today in Phoenix, 118 degrees. I think tomorrow will be even hotter.
And it's not just the hot air that's dangerous. It's the surfaces.
hotter. And it's not just the hot air that's dangerous. It's the surfaces. This steering wheel, 162.5. This sidewalk is 144 Fahrenheit. That's hot enough to burn your dog's paws in 60
seconds. And this playground slide for children, 182.8 degrees. A metal slide, people. This is unbelievable.
This is nothing new.
Zero.
I have a documentary I did in 1990.
I went to Vegas.
It was for a Dutch station.
And it was one of those summers.
It was the middle of the summer.
And you see me cooking an egg on the pavement.
It's like this is the oldest dumbest stuff ever it's just simply
not true it's fear-mongering and they do it to themselves as we just heard that yeah that's a
great part about it that's kind of interesting it's like it's like that i don't want to associate
i mentioned trans earlier as a gag but it's like the same thing. They're doing it to themselves.
The liberals are sterilizing their own children because they're true believers.
And they're frontline.
And they're frontline.
Frontline true believers.
Frontline true believers.
This is chopped up into a couple of short segments.
Thank you, Clip Custodian.
Let's continue with David Pogue's report.
So why has so much of the country been scorching for so long scorching well allow me to introduce that breakout weather stop it
wait before you continue this this has been the coldest summer i've ever had in this town i've
lived in it for 20 plus years was the hottest ever anywhere in the world for all recorded history you lie old man right now it is about 67
wow you must be sweating balls this is like the literally and i'm not kidding i've been
bitching about it all summer this is the coldest we never had a june or may june warm up never
warmed up cold as hell in july and's still cold. It usually starts warming up.
It hasn't done that.
Hey, so why don't you do a report around here and then generalize it?
You know, Texas, although we need some rain, it's 100.
It's not the hottest.
It's 100, 104.
Okay, it's hot.
It's Texas summer.
It's not like 2011 when it was 212 degrees in Austin.
But, you know, it doesn't matter.
We've got some money we need to justify to spend.
Well, allow me to introduce that breakout weather term of 2023, the heat dome.
Heat dome.
Never heard of that before.
It's an area of high pressure way up high that traps the
warm air like the lid on a pot it traps the heat it stops rain from moving in to cool us off and
it just sits there i mean this is this is true mind control that they are propagandizing upon
people unfortunately not every area under the heat dome suffers equally. Oh, unfortunately.
You're not suffering equally.
Wait, did he say unfortunately not everyone's suffering equally?
Listen again.
Unfortunately, not every area under the heat dome suffers equally.
Oh, this is unfortunate.
That is unbelievable if you take a look at that sentence they want
people to suffer you want to know who gets literally saying i'm sorry that not everyone's
suffering well that's what he's saying it the next sentence kind of reverses that but i agree
with you that's what he was saying for sure unfortunately not every area under the heat dome suffers equally. You want to
know who gets the worst of it? Cities. Cities are where heat comes to stay and comes to live.
Becca Benner is a director of climate issues at the non-profit Nature Conservancy. I want to be a
director of climate issues. I'll bet you I get a good salary doing that. Let me talk about some
climate issues. As you know, I'm the director of them.
Cities, on average, are several degrees warmer than the surrounding areas.
Well, this is new.
And just because of so much pavement.
1987.
The summer of 1987, I moved to New York City, to Manhattan.
And I thought I had entered hell. Manhattanattan that's funny in the summer i was
in new york city in 1987 i saw you that was the hellish part that's how you saw me that was it
was i remember this uh it was pc magazine so i remember getting out of my hotel room walking
about a block and then you and you fell down with a heart attack.
I had to go back and change my clothes.
That's what 1987 and summers after that, many summers.
That's why people leave New York City in the summer.
They leave because you can't breathe.
It's so humid.
It's so hot.
You get soaked.
Yes.
Only poor people like VJs live in the city during the summer.
Cities, on average, are several degrees warmer than the surrounding areas.
That's why they invented the Hamptons.
And just because of so much pavement, it tends to absorb heat better and reflect heat better.
They call it an urban heat island effect too much
pavement not enough trees wait we're never going to get through this report yeah but because it's
too deconstructible it's so good i know it's is it is absorbs or reflects yes it's it's she says
it absorbs and reflects let's listen Several degrees warmer than the surrounding areas.
And just because of so much pavement,
it tends to absorb heat better
and reflect heat better.
Massively cool.
This is scientific.
That's not even possible.
It is kind of...
It's a contradiction.
It's either going to absorb or reflect.
Yeah, good point.
Yeah, what is that,
Director of Climate Issues?
They call it the Urban Heat Island
Effect. It's the Urban Heat
Island Effect when
it absorbs and reflects at the same
time. Don't you know anything about science?
Too much pavement,
not enough trees and greenery to cool
things off. It's a city. The Heat Island Effect
is worst in the poorer areas of our
cities where there aren't many trees and even the bus stops don't always offer shade
poor people doors for poor people well it's all right because they have a solution last month
president biden announced some small steps toward adapting to dangerous heat
like expanding access to drinking water,
improving weather forecasts.
Improving weather forecasts?
That must be those red maps we have now.
We have those red...
What does that mean?
I don't know.
It's improving the weather forecast.
You know, making it better.
You know, making it more scary.
Like, what does access to drinking water mean in the city?
It means someone
spent some money on something that
no one benefited from. A faucet? Yeah, a faucet.
Access to drinking water,
improving weather forecasts,
and setting up a heat alert system.
We should be protecting workers from
hazardous conditions, and we will.
Oh, we need a...
Ladies and gentlemen, we have a hot summer but bardaro
maintains that there's much more to be done city planners should develop heat infrastructure like
cooling centers and strategic greenery and the federal government should start taking heat as
seriously as it treats other climate disasters fema has never declared extreme heat as a disaster.
So flooding and hurricane, all those things can be designated federal disaster areas,
but not heat? Not heat. Standing up more cooling centers, providing greater services for people.
No, that is not reimbursed by the government because there has never been a FEMA extreme heat declared disaster.
We need a FEMA extreme heat declared disaster because when you have a FEMA disaster,
you're right. Money. That's when the money comes out, said the director of climate issues. Now,
which disaster kills the most of all the disasters?
What is the most deadly disaster?
Which climate crisis disaster kills the most people?
Oh, man, which one could it be? I'm going to say severe cold kills the most people.
That is a fact.
People die in the winter easily look at France
look at all
look at the UK
this is a chart show
if you want cold you're going to get
dead
extreme heat is the climate
disaster that kills the most people
in fact
but in fact she has a fact
it kills more people than all
of the other disasters combined that is demonstrably just not true you can you can in fact i will
consider there's charts there's not they've been going around these charts showing that the
extreme cold is very deadly extreme heat you know you can it's ways of getting around it
soak yourself let me just there's a lot of things you can do uh let me see wonder ground this is not It's very deadly. Extreme heat, you know, it's ways of getting around it. Soak yourself.
Let me just see. There's a lot of things you can do.
Let me see.
Wunderground.
This is not, this is a, this is a very, who did this report?
Where did this show up?
CBS.
CBS.
CBS?
Mm-hmm.
When did Poe start working for them?
He's freelance.
Here, this is Forbes.
You know, take it for what it is.
It's just my first hit on a search.
Excessive heat can kill, but extreme cold still causes many more fatalities.
I mean, they could have done a search.
Yeah, that took you two seconds to find.
And we kind of have a joke here that we show a picture of before a heat wave,
and then we show a picture after a heat wave.
Yeah, that's a big joke.
The joke is you're making money, director of climate issues.
It's the same picture.
And that's part of the problem because
people see tornadoes and houses are up
ended and hurricanes and trees
and utility poles and
it's this invisible
killer. So it sounds like
heat among the various
climate disasters does not
get enough love from
the media and the government. It absolutely does not get enough love from the media and the government it absolutely
does not get enough love heat needs more love this is this is the tiffany network i want to remind you
the tiffany network of news heat doesn't get enough love heat needs more love well then the
final clip you know what you know what's coming we just have to call it what it is because every single
disaster whenever it takes place in the united states american media they always come to the
same old phrase wait wait can i guess the conclusion yeah trump's fault of course heat
waves aren't the only result of the warming planet heat also dries out vegetation and we get fires. Heat evaporates the land, so we get droughts.
Heat evaporates the oceans, so we get hurricanes.
The Nature Conservancy's Becca Benner cautions us not to think of this summer's heat as something freakish and rare.
It's the new normal.
It is no longer a future threat.
We are living this now.
Living it.
So whether your basement just flooded, whether you just had to evacuate for a fire,
whether it's too hot for you to go outside and enjoy yourself,
that means we are now experiencing some of the impacts of climate change.
We have to reduce emissions and we have to do it immediately and faster.
And faster.
It's the new normal.
That's what it is.
The new normal.
It's always been normal,
but now you just put a new,
it's like new Coke.
The new normal.
But the same effectiveness.
They've got to hurry because,
you know, we're at the top of the,
of the solar cycle by the day.
And as soon as that thing flips over,
it's going to start getting colder.
Yes, it's going start getting colder yes it's
gonna get really cold but that'll be climate change don't worry you know it'll be climate
change oh what are we gonna do yeah by by 2030 that's when the temperatures will just go down
by by the natural cycle which is well discussed in the science
well discussed in the science.
I only have one climate clip,
which is the hot in Alaska clip,
which got some attention from NPR.
Let's see.
Hot.
Hot.
I'm looking for hot.
There's never been hot in Alaska ever.
Climate.
I wish I could find.
Oh, climate. When you say hot in Alaska, I'm looking for the age.
I said I only have one climate clip.
Last month may have been the hottest July ever recorded on Earth.
And Alaska wasn't spared.
The state is now facing a late-season flare-up of wildfires in the interior
as record heat drags into August.
As Anna Canney with member station KTOO reports,
more than 140 wildfires are burning
across the states. This round of wildfires comes after relatively little fire activity earlier this
summer. Climate specialist Rick Thoman with the University of Alaska Fairbanks says the August
typically brings relief to the state's fire-prone interior. By the time we get to early August,
it's raining, that's putting out fires and keeping existing fires from growing.
This year, that's not happening. Instead, hot, dry conditions that began last month have persisted.
Fruit Gjordvik, the nation's northernmost city, this July was the hottest month on record.
For Fairbanks, the second hottest.
Hottest on record. Hottest on record.
Hottest.
Hottest on record.
On record.
Hottest on record.
Well, I mean, we know what this does.
Yeah, we know what this does.
This brings COVID.
Well, you know, I have some interesting clips.
So do I, but I yield the floor to you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
So there's something going on. i don't know what it is uh do i mr
smith or whatever his name was this is bad doctor's report on pbs they brought this woman on
her name is lena's son and she's a writer for the wapo perfect for the climate change segue
yeah but she's a she's a she talks about she's the one who introduced us to Zika.
Oh, the small hands.
She's the one who introduced us to monkey pox.
Is this...
Article after article.
Why she may be the beast.
She's the one who introduced it.
Oh, big breaking story.
Oh, it's great.
Now we can get the shots for five-year-olds.
This is that woman.
Hold on.
She is the...
Here we go.
Oh, Zika.
Oh, Zika.
Zika, Zika, Zika, Zika.
A little baby.
With a little bitty head.
That's right.
Zika, Zika, Zika.
We've been all over that.
Here she is.
They're going after ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine.
Yes.
Because they can't stop themselves.
Because I think there's an investigation afoot.
And so they're going to do what they can to cut them off at the pass.
Bad doctors, lean a sign, cut one.
First cut.
Cut one.
PBS.
Cut one.
What happens when, in the middle of a pandemic, doctors spread misinformation, potentially endangering people's lives?
William Brangham spoke recently with a reporter who set out to answer that very question.
A new investigation from the Washington Post reveals how doctors who pushed medical
misinformation, particularly about dangerous alleged COVID remedies,
faced few, if any, repercussions.
One of the lead reporters on that investigation was Lina Sun. She covers
health and infectious diseases for The Post and joins us now. Lina Sun, welcome back to the News
Hour. Thank you. Nice to be here. You looked at complaints against doctors in all 50 states
and from the starting of the pandemic until just recently. Before we get into what you found,
can you tell us what what were these doctors
alleged to have been doing oh this is the disinfo dozen this is mercola and all those no no no no
no no this has got nothing to do with those people oh this is the doctors the regular doctors on the
street uh we had an old clip of that guy and it used to be in hawaii 50 talking about how his
doctor treated him when he got covet COVID early on when it was really dangerous
and he mentioned hydroxychloroquine
maybe ivermectin
a very good
clip we picked up early in the show
no this is about
regular doctors this is a
this is a
warning shot across the
bow to any doctors who dare
to violate
what they're told to say and what
they're told to do it's got nothing to do with the disinformation doesn't at all and they're
not doctors most of them um so let's go here we go it's part two it covers the range but many of
the doctors that we looked into that actually were disciplined were prescribing ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine.
Those are two treatments that are shown to be not effective for treating COVID-19.
But they, of course, gained a lot of popularity during the pandemic because they were pushed by former President Trump and his allies.
Yeah, Trump, Trump and his allies.
Now, I have to put a little color in here.
When they showed, when she said ivermectin,
they showed, they went to a picture
of an ivermectin horse gel.
Wow, wow.
That's excellent, excellent.
And to top it off, a picture of a horse.
It said Ivermectin and they had a silhouette of a running horse.
Wow.
So they're driving this old point home.
William Brangham, who's the guy who's the reporter here, is interviewing her, pushes back on nothing.
He's like a pushover on this interview. He's the reporter here interviewing her, pushes back on nothing. He's like a pushover on this interview.
He's the worst.
He doesn't have one journalistic inquiry.
It's all, oh, that's what they found?
Oh, and his jaw's dropped.
Oh, that's terrible.
What else did the Washington Post discover?
Now, was this the PBS NewsHour?
Yeah.
Top of the line.
I'm going to take a look at who's supporting them.
I can tell you right now, I did this research.
Oh, good.
Pfizer is nowhere to be found.
In fact, Pfizer is so obviously missing that I'm very suspicious about this report and the whole thing.
Whatever the case is, no, you won't find it.
You can't find the connection that put this, which is kind of a
reverse negative ad on the air. But it's a totally disgusting product and they should be ashamed of
themselves. But here we go, cut three. So that was the prescription side. But then there were
other physicians who were spreading false and misleading statements about vaccines and masks
and treatments, saying things like equating the COVID vaccine to needle rape or needle rape.
Wow. And that was one Idaho pathologist who is under investigation in Washington state
or saying that ivermectin, if you take it, it's up to 90% effective in getting rid of the disease.
These are blatantly untrue. But what happened is that they would fill the vacuum out there
on social media. A lot of people wanted to know. Remember during the pandemic,
there was a lot of confusion. A lot of people latched onto these conspiracy theories,
these ideas. They would march into the hospital ERs demanding these medications.
Were there actual harms that came from these untruths and prescriptions?
I think what the disciplinary documents show us is that some doctors would prescribe these unproven treatments to people.
And then days later, the person died.
Oh, wow.
This is, well, you know, that's all ramping up.
I mean, that's obviously what it is.
But it has a little bit to do with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. too.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, sure.
That makes sense.
And he's got the goods on this ivermectin stuff.
And there's been plenty of documentation.
And you still have Peter McCullough.
You can't push back on him too much.
But they won't have him on a show like this.
So they bring this woman on who's really just a kind of a hand-wringer,
a professional rabble-rouser.
And Brangham, who's just all in on the whole
thing this is a very and but when they put the picture of the ivermectin and the horse
on the screen that was it for me that the pbs is no good they're no good let's go on with the next
clip now they died whether it was a direct linkage or if it was they were going to die from other causes.
It's not that clear, but we do know that they were prescribed this medication and then they died.
And then you have to think about the delayed opportunity costs, right? So if I am prescribing
you some quack medicine and that prevents you from going to get a vaccine or an antiviral that
could actually prevent you from getting serious disease
or dying. Dying?
Well, you know, you figure it out.
You figure it out.
You figure it out. If you're dying,
dying. Okay, so we have
the fifth clip, then I have a bonus clip.
So this will wrap this up.
Because it is not illegal,
quote-unquote, to
off-label prescribe something.
Right. Off-label is something that doctors do all the time, and that's their right, that's their medical judgment.
But what we have here is doctors prescribing medications that are way outside medical consensus.
You know, it's not like, okay, this might work. And this was done after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration expressly warned against doing this because of potential harm.
Your reporting also shows that not only are these oversight boards overtaxed and have a myriad set of different rules governing them,
but also some states are taking specific steps to make it harder for them to do their jobs,
specifically about this issue.
Exactly.
So already you have these state medical boards that are underfunded, under-resourced.
You know, they have their hands tied, right?
Then you have state legislatures or attorneys general who say,
Oh, you know what?
You guys, you don't have the authority to discipline any
doctors if they're prescribing ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine. Those drugs specifically?
Yes, those specifically. Lena Sun of the Washington Post, really a tremendous investigation. Thank you.
Oh, tremendous investigation. Just tremendous. The actor you mentioned was Daniel Dae Kim
from Lost. Here is a treatment protocol I followed as prescribed by my amazing doctor.
It was what's called a drug cocktail, which means it's a combination of different drugs.
It consisted of Tamiflu, which is an antiviral, the antibiotic azithromycin, more commonly known as a Z-Pak,
known as a z-pack a glycopyrrolate inhaler that was used to ease breathing and the inflammation that's commonly associated with covid and here's what i consider to be the secret weapon
hydroxychloroquine yeah there you go he hasn't worked yeah and the thing the thing is of course
these doctors are trying to treat people instead of following the rule of oh just let him die
they put all kinds of now now i'm trying to figure out this instead of following the rule of, oh, just let him die. Put him on the vent. Put him on a ventilator.
They put all kinds of...
Now, I'm trying to figure out this when...
You can't get the goods on her.
I think I could find...
Here's an interesting clip where she was interviewing Fauci.
And it's all about getting money, money, money, money, money.
And this is the clip is called.
This is the WAPO Fauci.
And she was on C-SPAN.
So she's brought on C-SPAN to do this sort of thing to come in and ask questions.
Borrowed money up to now. So there's not been a significant slowdown.
That's not the issue. The issue is if we don't get the money very soon,
all of the things that we've been leading up to, we're not going to be able to bring to the goal line.
So could I follow up with that, Dr. Fauci? So if you don't get it very soon, then what is your
drop dead? If you are going to go into phase one at the end of August, early September,
you can't wait until early September to start. You know, you have to be preparing for phase two now.
So was your drop dead a couple of weeks ago or is it going to be in another month or what?
So good question. First of all, let me just say that the so-called drop dead a couple of weeks ago or is it going to be in another month or what? So good question.
First of all, let me just say that the so-called drop dead point is really different for the development of a vaccine and what we do and different for what.
Hold on.
Wait, hold on.
Stop the clip.
I'm sorry.
That's a clip from 2016.
And they're talking about getting money.
One point nine billion dollars for zika
oh you're doing the same dirty tricks i'm doing
very funny mr devorek well then let's talk about other off-label medication because you know
it's okay when it's really out in the open in big pharma and you
can you know everyone just agrees it's oh what a wonder drug let's go on every single show and
let's just say ozempic it's fantastic it's for it's for diabetes but it's okay don't worry about
it you can use it to lose weight for your high school reunion or don't really do it for that but
yeah you can do it now the makers of two high school reunion. Well, don't really do it for that, but yeah, you can do it.
Now the makers of two of the most popular weight loss and diabetes drugs are facing a major lawsuit over claims about potential side effects.
I'm not a doctor, but I think I've been warning for a year about this.
CBS's Janet Chamlin has the details.
They've been game changers in the world of weight loss.
The drugs Ozempic and Mongero delivering big results,
generally without dangerous side effects.
But a lawsuit filed today against manufacturers Novo Nordisk
and Eli Lilly claims otherwise,
saying the drugs can cause stomach paralysis,
something they claim happened to their client,
a 44-year-old Louisiana woman who took the drugs for type two diabetes and weight loss.
Wait for it.
Her problems have been so severe that she's been to the emergency room multiple times, including last weekend.
She's actually even thrown up so violently that she's lost teeth.
Stomach paralysis can be a side effect of diabetes.
Oh, my God. can be a side effect.
That's a good one. Which the drugs are commonly prescribed for.
Rhea Hand, who is not involved in the lawsuit, has had similar issues with Ozempic.
The stomach pain was just unbearable and I just couldn't keep anything down.
I would drink something and within minutes, like five, ten minutes later, I would be throwing it right up. No wonder it works so well for weight loss. More than 40 percent of
Americans are obese and demand for the medications has soared. They aren't cheap. A one month supply
can cost more than $1,300. But now the University of Texas system says it will end insurance
coverage for the FDA approved weight loss drugs drugs Wagovi and Sexenda.
Aha, notice they're not ending it for everything.
This is what this game is about now.
The game is now about who is going to continue coverage, who's going to continue to pump money into these pharma companies.
For the FDA-approved weight loss drugs Wagovi and Sexenda in September.
Other employers are increasing the copay amount.
Some consider the moves a setback as obesity has only recently been treated
as a disease by many health plans instead of a lifestyle.
And there is your key.
It's a disease.
You're sick.
It's like,
no,
it's a brain disease.
It's disease.
You can't help it.
It's not your fault.
It's a disease.
It's not brain disease. It's a disease. You can't help it. It's not your fault. It's a disease. It's not your fault.
I don't know how you could get a report like that because I have a report kind of on the same topic with Dr. Jen.
Oh, she's America's favorite doctor.
On Good Morning America 3.
On Good Morning America 3.
Yeah.
Yesterday.
Yes.
And is she saying that people are throwing up teeth?
Puke and ivory?
No, here it is, Dr. Jen.
Sorry, Dr. Jen, let's talk medical news.
And apparently there's a brand new study out that's talking about the popular drug Wegovi.
It's been FDA approved for weight loss, but now researchers are finding that it also has significant heart health benefits.
Yeah.
So let's go through this now.
This is preliminary data, not yet peer reviewed or published, released by the drug manufacturer.
But it shows what we've known about other drugs in the same class, these GLP-1 agonists.
Take a look at what they found.
They looked at 17,000 overweight and obese adults, 45 years of age and older, with a diagnosis of heart disease.
What they found is a major reduction in the risk of cardiovascular events like stroke, heart attack by 20 percent among people taking this drug.
The drug maker does plan to request approval beyond that of obesity as early as the end of this year. Hopefully then insurance
coverage may follow. And why is that important? These drugs are incredibly expensive, at least
$1,000 per month for the weekly injection if you're paying out of pocket, sometimes closer
to $1,300 a month. And remember, CDC data, heart disease, the number one killer of men and women
in this country.
So anytime you can expand the FDA.
Hey, what happened to smoking?
What happened to smoking being the number one killer of men and women in this country?
Smoking called, they're angry.
One killer of men and women in this country. So anytime you can expand the FDA indications for a medication to include reducing risk of heart disease, heart attacks, that's a big deal.
I know you're board certified in obesity medicine.
How do you hope that this impacts the conversation around these drugs and weight loss?
I think it is so important.
As someone who's board certified in obesity medicine, there has been such a backlash in society against these class of medications.
That is based on stigma not science
these drugs have a role for people who are overweight and obese it is not as simple as
eating less and moving more for those people and again saving lives as an end point that's the goal
yeah did you notice that she's board certified in obesity medicine
as was mentioned by the host and then by herself so i
looked up the board for obesity medicine it's a rinky-dink operation it's like it's uh it's a
cell it's like you take a test once a year and you get this certification the whole operation is a
it's like a ham radio license yes it's exactly like it like a tech tech license
yeah tech license yeah it's like a tech license and the board itself the whole budget of the
whole board is like a million five obesity medicine how about you know healthy living
i mean sorry american board of obesity medicine well some and all they do and there's i couldn't
get any connect there
there is some funding that is miscellaneous funding of a million dollars which is most of
their budget and then the rest of their funding comes from the people taking the test you have
to pay to take the test then you get your certification you put your um ab whatever
obesity medicine letters after your name this bullshit so there's a lot going on people are in this
and i think a lot of this is meant to cover up what the news really is turbo cancers you're
hearing this everywhere myocarditis heart damage i'm not saying it's uh it's not causation but
correlation one out of 35 covid vaccinated people have expressed some form of myocarditis heart damage.
And that's a real study.
This one is an extraction of studies, but I'm just going to quote it as if I know what I'm talking about.
The VAERS data is crystal clear.
That's the Vaccine Adverse Event Registration System.
The COVID vaccines are killing an estimated one person per 1,000 doses.
And my favorite, and this is from, no, this was actually from, where did this one come from?
I got to click on the link because it's some official study.
Wiley.com, so it's published uh conclusion mrna 1273 vaccine associated myocardial myocardial injury was more common than previously thought being mild and transient and more frequent in
women versus men this warrants further study so there's a lot of study. So there's a lot of study going
on. There's a lot of things that aren't
quite adding up with safe
and effective. Can I mention something here just in
passing? Yeah. That Lena
Sun woman was the one
who pushed the notion
in articles in the Washington Post
pushed the notion of, hey, you
got your Johnson and Johnson
and a booster? Oh, yeah.
Get an mRNA vaccine, too.
Yeah.
That's her.
Ozempic and Wegovy are courting black leaders seeking Medicare's favor
because, you know, black people have diabetes far more often
and obesity far more often than any other color American.
So they're trying to get some money out of that.
And there's a new drug, and maybe this is part of it.
Scientists develop wonder drug that could make people skinny
no matter how many calories of junk food they eat.
It's called dysentery. It's called puke and ivory i don't know
um so that's on the way but there is also a new a new covid variant lurking new data from the cdc
that shows covid hospitalizations increased during the last week of july and this comes
as tracking reinfections of the virus continue to wane after the public health emergency ended in May.
ABC News medical contributor and epidemiologist Dr. John Brownstein is joining us now for more.
So thank you so much for being with us, Dr. Brownstein.
And those hospitalizations, they went up, you know, 12.5 percent during the end of July compared to the week prior.
So realistically, how does that compare to
the peak of this pandemic? And do we need to be concerned? Yeah, well, Kena, we do have to be
concerned to a certain degree and be vigilant. And we are seeing a lot more people around us
getting COVID. That being said, those numbers still remain incredibly low. If you put into
perspective, we've seen about 9,000 weekly hospitalizations. We had about 150,000 during the height of the Omicron peak. So
it's still such a small fraction. And we haven't seen any changes in deaths. So there could be
reporting delays. A lot of these increasing cases are related to this new variant, the EG5,
but it's really descended of Omicron. So our existing treatments, our tests, our vaccines,
all work. So yes, we should watch these numbers and be concerned.
But overall, this isn't a big change in the pandemic.
Now, this EG5, I think it's EG5.1.
It's almost like a new version of Microsoft Office.
You know, so what version do you have? 5.1.
It has a nickname.
And here's something else that's not ending soon.
The pandemic.
Thanks to the multiple new variants of COVID-19.
Reports say a new COVID-19 variant is spreading quickly in the UK.
It goes by the name of Ares.
How fast is this variant spreading and how lethal is it?
Our next report explores.
A new COVID variant is on the prowl.
It goes by the name of Ares of EG 5.1. Our next report explores. A new COVID variant is on the prowl.
It goes by the name of Eris of EG 5.1 and accounts for 1 in 10 COVID cases in the UK.
When was this variant discovered?
How fast is it spreading?
And how lethal is it?
Let's find out.
To start with, when was this variant discovered?
Well, Eris was initially identified as a COVID variant only on 31st July.
It was discovered to be a sub-variant of the Omicron strain.
UK's Health Security Agency said it was spreading at a rapid pace.
How rapid?
What is the transmissibility rate of the variant?
Well, not many details are available about the transmission rate of ERIS.
But if we go by the surge in COVID cases and hospital admissions in the UK, they indicate that sitting back calmly won't really help.
Just like other COVID variants, this one too is likely to infect many.
According to reports, in the week beginning July 10th, approximately 11.8 of UK sequences were identified as Eris.
The data from August indicates that this figure has climbed to a worrisome 14.6% of all cases.
So they're starting to give us all kinds of worrisome numbers. But Eris, I love this new
nickname, this Eris. It's cute. Can I ask a question? Technical question. Technical question, yes. What's the difference between a variant and a sub-variant?
I don't know.
He said it was a sub-variant, then he said it was a variant.
Well, Eris is a variant of a variant.
So it's a variant of...
But aren't all the variants a variant of a variant?
Well, technically...
Or are there variants of variants that aren't variants of variants?
But I like it when they name the sub-variant of a variant.
Yeah, at least it's memorable.
And this one is Eris.
And Eris is not hard to look up, E-R-I-S.
Eris is the Greek goddess of strife and discord.
Well, isn't that special?
It's kind of appropriate.
Her Roman equivalent is discord discordia which means the same
eric's greek opposite is harmonia that we need a drug called harmonia we need a vaccine called
harmonia we need harmonia to combat eris um uh let me see yeah there you go that's it so i i just
you know do they name that on purpose like i've got a i've got yeah there you go that's it so i just you know do they name that on purpose like
i've got a i've got yeah there's always some joker in the group there that does that
there's a couple of things here let me get it let's see uh let's go to nbc see what they're
saying about eris as summer winds down covid 19 cases rise again This time a variant called EG.5 commonly called ARIS
is spreading across the state
and southeastern North Carolina.
I just heard of it this second.
How is it commonly called anything?
Because the memo went out. It's common
now. It's common. Stop making
waves, podcaster.
5 commonly called ARIS is
spreading across the state and
southeastern North Carolina.
New Hanover County Health Director John Campbell says that's consistent with the numbers they're
tracking. We have seen some trending upwards in the wastewater surveillance, which is one of our
key indicators looking at COVID numbers. This is the new thing. And we saw this coming,
the wastewater, which they will, I'm'm just going to say our prediction has always been
that this wastewater analysis was going to because they can do it down to the block and they're going
to start locking people in their apartment blocks you got too much covid in your poop so you guys
you got you can't get out another thing that we look at is hospitalizations or emergency department
visits the cdc says positive COVID tests and hospitalizations
have continued to grow in the last week. That could lead to some worries for parents with a
new school year quickly approaching, but Campbell says parents shouldn't stress. I don't want
parents to necessarily be overly concerned for anything, but more aware. Given the advancements
in COVID prevention and treatment,
he believes parents should take the same approach to keeping your family safe as they would for any illness. Close the schools. Number one, keep your child healthy and as well
as they can. Any routine childhood vaccines that they need, they should be offered those. And
certainly if individuals are feeling unwell, I would recommend that they see a primary care provider and consider for consideration of COVID testing or other respiratory virus testing.
A further reminder that even though the pandemic may be over, COVID is still around.
It's still around. Let's go to CBS Morning's Dr. Celine Gounder. Let's talk about it. It's time to bring it up.
Here's something we haven't talked about in a while. The C word in this case means COVID.
Wow, that's so cool. It used
to mean cancer, Gail, but now
it's the C word. Who comes up with this script?
Who decided that
was a good idea?
I always thought it meant something else.
Well, there you go.
No, I think when you are
talking to a doctor and someone says let's talk about the C word, you go, oh, cancer.
That's the first thing you think about.
I understand when you say see Gail, you think of something else.
But yeah.
And but this is now a wordplay.
We're talking about COVID.
COVID.
Get it.
Here's something we haven't talked about in a while.
The C word in this case means COVID.
I saw something on the news the other day that just said COVID is going back up, A.
How much should we worry about that?
And then we hear in the fall that there's a new booster coming out.
Who should get the booster?
No booster!
Is it going up?
You know, when I saw it on the news, I go, oh, no, not again.
You know, a few weeks ago, a friend of mine got COVID.
Really?
No, right?
What?
So what?
A friend of yours got COVID? The C word? was he and he had it before did he ever get a booster was he boosted
and you know a few weeks ago a friend of mine got covid really yeah and they had it before had it
before and he said he's feeling okay is he boosted is he boosted yeah is he boosted is he boosted is
he boosted is he boosted is he boosted is he boosted yeah Is he boosted? Is he boosted? Is he boosted? Is he boosted? Yeah, it kind of shocked us. Yeah. Well, it shocked us.
Oh, it shocked us. He was boosted.
We haven't talked about it in a while.
Well, we're certainly seeing it. In fact, I just had a patient
in the hospital. Well, I'll
get to that. So we're certainly seeing patients.
And I saw a patient who was relatively
young, who had COVID, who was in the hospital,
not vaccinated. Ah, see?
Oh, you made
a mistake. Why did you even interrupt the introduction
we won't talk about that now because he was boosted because my story is about someone a
young patient of mine who was in the hospital which we all know that the vaccine prevents you
from dying and entering the hospital of severe illness that's my story vaccine but that's what
it does that's that's my story so just because you've been infected does not mean you have full
protection we're still seeing much higher rates of hospitalization and death for that matter among
people who remain unvaccinated yeah oh this is simply not true this does not fit any evidence anecdotal or factual people who have been boosted are
getting covid two three four five times are we seeing an uptick well it really depends on how
you look at the numbers we have seen a 10 increase in hospitalizations over the last few weeks
but 10 of a very small number is still a very small number.
Okay.
And the booster is in the fall.
It's a math.
So the booster, everyone six months and up can get the booster if they want to.
But the groups, again, that most need it are the groups I mentioned earlier.
So the elderly, pregnant women, people who have immunosuppression, chronic medical conditions,
especially heart or lung disease,
and people who live in nursing homes or other group settings.
But if you're not in that group, do you think you don't really have to get it?
That's what I'm trying to...
I think it really... That's really up to you at that point.
So some people feel more concerned.
You know, are you the person who gets the flu shot every year?
You're probably going to want to get that COVID shot.
Probably.
If you're, you know, if you've already been fully vaccinated, it's less important for that young, healthy group.
You mentioned the flu shot last year.
Yeah, no, we're not going to talk about the flu shot,
but we are going to go back to this.
No, we already did that one, didn't we?
No, we did the local report.
It's starting to ratchet up.
It's just what it is.
Get it going.
Get everyone starting.
Don't get scared.
Throw in some RSsv i'm not
going to play those clips but the uh the thing that bothers me the most still is this alpha gal
a lot of people been doing research uh it keeps coming back that alpha gal house has been used
in multiple uh vaccines as an adjuvant so that it's just very, very annoying.
And so, you know, let me see.
I have under the alpha gal, what did I have here?
I have a couple of stories, but it ties into something new.
Hey guys, says one of our boots on the ground reports.
I got a wild hair about this alpha gal stuff.
Came across a few things that struck me as
a little odd i found that the only fda approved gmo mammal for human consumption is the gal safe
pig yeah they genetically engineered a pig to remove alpha gal from its cells
which would mean that if you have alpha-gal allergy,
you could eat their pig,
which by itself is a little annoying.
That's called marketing.
It is.
Then, what is this one?
Bill Gates funded research
into genetically engineered cattle ticks.
And now, of course,
we have half a million Americans
who have allergies from alpha-gal syndrome
caused by tick bites.
But then, then this lab pops up in the news in the UK
in Porton Down.
And BBC News says,
can this laboratory, notice my pronunciation pronunciation can this laboratory help stop the
neps in the next pandemic yes the guardian calls it the new vaccine research center in the uk to
help scientists prepare for disease x just like planet x that's right. Disease X.
I think that that's been slipped in because they're considering Elon Musk a disease.
Well, we heard about Disease X on, I'll replay a little bit of this, on Davos Radio. That is the World Economic Forum podcast.
A pathogen known as Disease X, the virus that we don't know yet what i was just
mumbling disease x yet but we do know is out there welcome to radio davos the podcast from the world
economic forum that looks at the biggest challenges and how we might solve them this week the next
pandemic is a matter of when not if so how can the world prepare for disease X?
We can actually gain a lot of knowledge ahead of time about something that doesn't exist yet.
A new book called Disease X says...
So we've got a book.
We got the WEF talking about on the podcast.
So they're ramping it up.
And then all of a sudden in the UK, Porton Down.
Wasn't there another down that had a laboratory that was in trouble in the UK hundreds of years ago?
I don't think we can ring a bell.
Yes, and it wasn't Porton.
It was some other down or downs or something.
Anyway, so then I find this little ditty on Sky News,
where they interview some people from from this laboratory.
Where they hope that they can detect and prepare and be ready for disease X when it comes.
Listen carefully.
In some of the most secure labs in the country, scientists are already preparing for the next pandemic.
It's just called disease X for now because nobody knows for sure which virus will
cause it. But at its port and down complex, the UK Health Security Agency is scanning the horizon
for threats and starting work on vaccines just in case. What we're seeing is a rising risk globally.
Now, some of that is because of things like urbanization, where you may get species jumping, so a virus jumping from, as we've seen with bird flu, into humans.
Some of it is because of climate change.
So this is a growing risk agenda.
But then it's one that we can use our science actively to prevent human impact.
Okay, so we're already setting up.
Some of this is because of climate change.
It's all going to tie together.
Remember, we discovered a very horrible disease spreading with a 30% death rate.
Do we remember it?
CCHF?
I do.
Yes, Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever?
Yeah, something like that. Now watch.
Let's tie it all together.
It took a little under a year to develop the COVID jab.
The target for a vaccine in the next pandemic is just 100 days.
Bird flu, monkeypox, and other animal viruses capable of infecting humans are being closely monitored.
One early success is a potential vaccine
against Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever.
It's spread by ticks with a fatality rate of around 30%.
It's found in Europe and it's...
Hold on a second.
Crimean.
You got your, there's your Ukraine.
Congo.
Did you say Congo?
Congo?
Let me see.
Moving on.
Early success is a potential vaccine against Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever.
Congo. A Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever spread by tick.
It's spread by ticks.
Come on. They're setting us up for this.
Because we know you can get all kinds of horrible meat diseases from ticks.
So it must be real.
It's not in the vaccine.
No, it's from a tick.
It's from the Lone Star tick.
So now the CCHF, the Crimean,
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever spread by ticks.
There's nothing, there's definitely a connection between Crimea and Congo.
Yeah.
And, and there's a benefit.
A fatality rate of around 30%.
It's found in Europe,
and it's moving north with climate change.
And it's moving north with climate change.
Wow, they're doing a great bit here.
They're slamming it all together.
We've got Ukraine.
They've got to get Trump in the action.
That's why they're trying to get ahead.
And clinical trials are already underway.
We've got another dead bird.
Not quite sure what that is.
But it is bird flu that currently tops the list.
All right, then they're going to go back to bird flu now.
Bird flu is no good.
I like the CCHF spread by tick moving north because of climate change.
And they're studying this under the guise of disease X.
Come on.
This is great.
This is fantastic.
I think.
These people are fanatics.
This is terrible.
Well, I think it's a winner.
They should be strung up.
When is that going to happen? I think it's a winner. They should be strung up. When is that going to happen?
I think it's a winner.
It's a winner.
It's a big winner.
No one's going to be strung up.
Except us.
We're going to be strung up.
No, I don't think so.
I got a great email.
I won't even read the whole thing.
You guys are Zionist traitors.
Traitors to who? You will be exposed as a scumbag shills that you are after the revolution what for being zionist chills after the revolution
what after the revolution you'll be forced into penury scumbag. Penury? What's penury?
Well, you know, I always used to know, I think I know what it means, but I don't have a definition at the top of my, tip of my tongue.
Let's look it up.
Okay, well, that's a good one. Consultation of knowledge.
So this guy, anonymous, of course.
Oh, yeah.
In other words, some chicken shit creep.
You guys don't talk about the PNAC.
And so I went to be in it.
PNAC, Project for New American Century.
Because they're the Zionists.
They're the ones that run the country.
They want to kill us.
Oh, we've talked about that.
I know.
We talked about that group like 10 years ago to an extreme i know and
so i put a bunch of neocon jerk offs yeah and i put it in i'd say into bing it.io and i came up
with you know like 50 episodes where we discuss it just specifically yeah so this guy obviously
he's a phony he's a phony and then he comes back he's a phony he's a phony there's a phony
but it there is a definition i can't i have to
stop the show and go get batteries for my keyboard oh the death sorry oh the definition of penury
no i can look that up now are you getting you have to go downstairs and get these batteries
yes i have to go downstairs i usually have a couple up here, but I can't find them. State of penury.
State of extreme poverty or destitution.
Yeah, destitution.
We're not even that far.
What are you talking about?
Well, that's because we're podcasters.
Okay, go ahead.
I'll pause everything for a moment.
Sorry.
Sometime later.
Yes, batteries installed.
Yes.
But the joke is, on me, in the interim, I had dug around thinking that,
because I usually keep spare batteries up here.
I found a couple in the cup.
I put them in and it didn't work.
You just gave us a theater of the mind.
Then I stopped the show and left and came back to put the new batteries in.
And I opened the compartment and the two batteries that I had put in were both in the same direction.
I didn't put them in correctly.
Yeah.
So I had already solved the problem in advance of having to stop everything to get batteries.
Because I had batteries.
So I'm good to go.
I go through the show checklist before I start the show.
No, no.
The batteries that were in at the beginning
were put in properly, but they went dead.
I know, but I put in fresh batteries
every show.
No, you don't.
No, I don't, but it sounds good.
They used to do that.
Okay, little show, you know, tech TV.
Yes.
They used to have a guy
there who was always he was one of those guys most broadcasters this way they change the batteries in
everything before every every day in the mics especially in the wireless mics yep everything's
changed and there's a big box and they take the used batteries and they put them in a giant box
and instead of throwing them out they let the employees take them home.
So I used to take home these batteries.
Oh, God.
You are the cheapest guy I know.
No.
What am I going to do?
Why should I be buying batteries when there's all these batteries?
And so I would bring boxes of these batteries home.
And then one day, they fired the guy, of course, because they had to let go.
The battery budget was out of control. That's day they fired the guy of course because you know they had to let go first day you know the way the battery budget was out of control that's why the battery budget was out of control the guy's gone so now they're letting the batteries the old battery so that
of course on my show the batteries go dead i could just see it happening i could just see it happening
oh my goodness anyway while while you were uh uh mucking around there, I looked up the definition.
There's a new definition I want to tell you.
It's very disturbing that pretty much all dictionaries have changed.
And this came up at home because Tina was talking about something being decimated.
And it's very hard for me, even though it's a dickish thing to do,
it's hard for me to not say, you know, decimate actually kind of means like 10%.
One out of 10.
One out of 10.
No!
And I say, well, yeah, because it comes from...
No!
If you can break the word down, is 10 yeah but uh all the dictionaries
have changed this they've all changed it oh i didn't know that yes they have all changed it
in fact miriam webster gives a worst yeah the worst insofar changing at the drop of a hat explains regarding the
incorrect uses of decimate.
It is totally,
totally fine to use decimate as a synonym for devastate.
And then they explain why,
because,
you know,
people started using it incorrectly and now it's correct,
which is the best.
That's the way it works.
Yeah.
Definition of,
but it's probably because it rhymes with devastate.
Yeah,
but still, I mean, it's...
I agree, but you can't, you know, it's like peeing in the wind.
How about the Cambridge Dictionary?
Cambridge.
Well, if you go to the Oxford English Dictionary, I really doubt it's changed.
Oxford English...
That's the big boy.
Definition of decimate.
Let's take a look.
All right.
That's the big boy. That's the big boy. That's the big of decimate. Let's take a look. That's the big boy.
That's the big boy.
That's the big boy.
Okay.
Decimate.
Oh, they even have a handy little pronunciation.
Let's hear decimate.
Decimate.
Decimate.
Number one, to kill large numbers.
Oops.
Can you believe it?
Number two, severely damage or make something weaker this is crazy yeah it's over it's it's over for our little nerdy debate we're just wrong now
we're wrong wrong yeah it happens and with that in all of our wrongness i'd like to thank you for your
courage say in the morning to you the man who put the sea into circular psychiatry ladies and
gentlemen say hello to my friend and the other one and only mr john c
well in the morning you mr adam curry also in the morning all ships and sea boots on the ground
feet in the air subs in the water and all the dames and knights out there.
And in the morning, two of the trolls hanging out.
Hello, trolls! Trolls! Stop!
Wait! Nope! I'm trying to count.
There we go.
Trolls are absent. 1919 today.
I mean, I know it's better than
the 1800, but
it's not the 22, 000 we had the other day
it was 2200 it was outrageous yeah well they've all burned they they jumped in the in the ocean
so now it's 1919 but those trolls are in the troll room which you can find at trollroom.io
where you can log into the troll room you can can also listen to the show live. It is the no agenda stream 24 seven.
All talk,
no agenda,
cool music.
Thank you.
Darren O'Neill always comes in with the rock and roll pre-show before the
show.
It's well worth it.
Everyone gets warmed up,
all jacked up,
ready to go.
Hey,
I'll trolly.
And,
uh,
you can also witness this by getting a modern podcast app at podcast
apps.com.
Uh,
still recommending pod versus the way to go
because they have this fabulous notification system.
We send out the bat signal.
You get reminded the show is live.
And of course, you can import all of your legacy podcast apps.
Why would you use anything with less features?
Why?
Makes no sense.
Podcastapps.com.
Actually, you're right.
It makes no sense.
And we use all of the features, all of them, including chapters and transcript.
The transcript, I mean, so we have Bing.io.
But you can, if you say, hey, the guys, the boys were talking about this just on the last episode.
You can go in there.
You can search in that episode by transcript.
I mean, why wouldn't you want to do that?
So you can show people what you're talking about.
Back it up. Back it up with your what you're talking about. Back it up.
Back it up with your people, with your boys.
Back it up.
Back it up, boys.
Anyway, you can also follow us at noagendasocial.com.
Follow John C. Dvorak at noagendasocial.com or Adam at noagendasocial.com.
Still always find it amazing how many people use that as our email address.
It does work, but it's like, wow, I can tell where you're coming from.
And the purge is nigh.
Yes, if you're within the sound of my voice
and you don't want your account purged,
you better log in and use it.
Anyone who has not used their account within a year
will be purged from the system.
And that will make room for new accounts
because somehow people just want to have
this highly coveted at noagendasocial.com address so that they can be banned from everywhere.
So you basically, it's like a degradation of service, but people like it.
So I'm not going to argue against that.
Just one of the many value for value services.
We are very grateful to Aaroner who runs this for us.
That's his massive way of providing value back to the show.
Another person who has been providing value to the show for 15 years is Void Zero.
15 years, we found out.
15 years.
He's been the troll room itself.
It's still technically his property.
Although, good luck with that uh yeah good
luck kicking the trolls out doing whatever you want but this is this is the value that like sir
benrose another guy big value he provides to the stream everybody who's who's doing stuff on no
agenda we must mention darren darren o'neill i mentioned him earlier, but okay, make his head bigger. Sir Daniel. Wolfgang.
Wolfgang O'Neill.
Wolfman.
Wolfman.
Wolfgang Buck.
Wolfgang O'Neill.
Wolfgang O'Neill.
Darren Wolfman.
There you go.
Wolfgang.
You know, boots on the ground reports from, I mean, I got some good ones.
I got some really good ones coming up.
It's just crazy.
Some Transmalwist boots on the ground.
Big Pharma boots on the ground.
Oh, man, I should have done that earlier.
Actually, let me do this now.
Since this is the donation segment and people who skip it will miss this valuable information, along with the Powerball number coming up in a bit.
This is Boots on the Ground Anonymous. information along with the powerball number coming up in a bit the uh so the in uh this is boots on
the ground anonymous i can offer some insight into the conversation on 1578 about drugs as his brother
is a recently reformed heroin addict who lived on the streets for approximately five years in the
st louis area man five years on horse can you believe that and congratulations reformed he's off it he lives over that time
period he witnessed the available drugs going from straight heroin which he started using
to heroin being cut with fentanyl to pretty much everything on the street being fentanyl
and at one point i asked him the question that you posed on the show is why do drug dealers
knowingly push fentanyl when it can pretty much
be a death sentence and this is you know i think you and i both agree like what drug dealers
wouldn't do this why do they want to kill their their customers the answer will surprise you
his answer enlightened me to the nature of the problem i think it speaks directly to what you
were saying on the show he told me that's exactly what the drug dealers wanted.
He said, as soon as word on the street went out
that someone died from a batch that someone was selling,
sales would immediately skyrocket.
The users would flock to get the most powerful stuff imaginable,
even at the risk of death.
How about that it's a sales very slightly but not completely counterintuitive it's a sales technique it's like the same thing with it you're
always like harp on about the cigarettes yeah with the poison in every puff oh give me another one
hey you got some gangrene oh yeah i'll trade you for my pack of heart disease.
He did say that he told me directly the possibility of fentanyl killing someone would absolutely raise sales for that drug dealer or that corner.
Imagine all the zombies.
There's some good stuff over here. he did also say that law enforcement often puts stuff into,
cuts it up with certain types of compounds,
such as he thinks Trank may have started this way,
so they can track a whole drug line.
Yeah, I can see that.
Yeah, I can see that.
Thanks, thanks, DEA.
Anyway, that's your beautiful little special donation.
You know, I think it's got something to do with the arrogance of the addict.
You have to be rather, oh, they killed Joe.
Well, that guy's a lightweight.
Yeah, pretty much.
That's got to be some good stuff.
I can handle that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm not Joe.
That guy's a weenie.
Well, I'm not going to be so cavalier because any kind of addiction is horrible.
And these are our brothers and sisters who are addicted on the street.
So I'd rather see them not be that way.
Anyway, so you can get value for value from your drug dealer or you can just get it from your favorite podcast.
There's a transition for you.
We like to get time time talent and treasure back and uh one of the many ways that we uh get huge value back is from our artists
they upload to no agenda art generator.com during the show during the live show in order to um to
get us something to choose from that we can then use right after we are done with the show before
we produce it and put it out fastest turnaround time in the west i would say and they completely failed completely failed on the last
episode in fact we had to go to the evergreens to pick up the no agenda red book which was an
evergreen a place in the evergreens by gus not also knows yeah skifa skifa skifa i'm not quite sure how to pronounce
it skifa because we we just could not find anything appropriate for uh for the show i mean
looking at what was submitted a lot of rainbow gay stuff you Yeah, no. Butts from ComicStreamBlogger. Yeah, no.
We came very close to using Francisco Scaramanga's sea drone.
Why did we not use that?
There was stuff wrong with it.
What was wrong?
Why did we not use that?
Which one was it?
The rubber ducky.
I don't know which one it is.
The rubber ducky in the boat.
Oh, no. Yeah, I like that that one why didn't we use it uh you had some complaint about it oh yeah i think you well it's ai that's a start oh no that
you said that ai it's ai let's not do it it's ai you said it you become the ai police
well i didn't mean to yeah well that's that's what's happened
but you're the one that you have the rule i don't have the rule i don't mind
but you're i like that ducky the rubber ducky also the one i ended up using for the newsletter
is i thought looking back on it i think it's a nice piece and it's very atypical it's a no agenda
show from uh uh sir jo Central Park Refugee Camp.
I thought that was a nice piece.
We looked at that, but you couldn't even see the word refugee camp.
I mean, you know.
It's pretty, yeah.
But it's a good newsletter piece, and it's a nice piece.
It's very well thought out.
I mean, these pieces can be used for all kinds.
It's like, correct the record, did gay in the air with the rainbow flag.
But we're just not going to do that.
We have gay listeners.
We have trans listeners, producers, I should say.
We don't have to go out of our way to insult them.
Yeah, we insult them just naturally.
Yeah.
You know, you got Zelensky on a gay postcard.
We don't need to do that.
We're not actually homophobic or transphobic.
You know, it's like and then cutting the hot dog i think is a bit much comic strip blogger yes yeah he had a lot
he had a lot of uh a lot of weird things you know no agenda tijuana donkey show tomorrow lizzo i mean
you know but no i didn't see the donkey show one.
It's the marquee.
Another corrector record.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Although I will say.
Donkey show.
Comics for a blogger with two butts.
I mean, okay.
You know, it gives us a laugh when we're looking for something serious.
But it just wasn't there, you know.
And it was sad.
So, let me see. People
are already uploading new stuff. We'll have to see how that goes, but we appreciate the effort,
but we're just going to be honest. We're going to tell you artists when it's good and when it's no
good. So we're returning value for the value you're returning for the value we're providing,
which is how it works. You don't have to pay for the show. You can download, you listen to it
whenever you want, as often as you want. You can do anything you want with it pretty much people used to make cd cds and
distribute them good still it's a business i'm still finding cds in my house i have boxes of
these things still hanging around run them to your machine so they get uh transcribed to wm uh mv or mp3 it's all the same
it's all no agenda show cds oh oh oh yeah yeah it's you know there's no agenda book that we
picked off from the evergreen has disappeared from the site what do you mean no sorry what do
you mean has disappeared i can't find it it was in evergreens yeah i'm
looking at evergreens now and it's not on page one it's not on page two well it's it it's
but maybe it was moved let me see i mean but you click on it from our show notes you find it
so maybe it was because it won that it then got moved to some other spot.
I think it's under accepted art.
Okay.
So it got moved.
So it got removed.
Yeah.
But none of the other pieces ever disappear from that where they were from.
Well,
once it's been used,
it's no longer an evergreen.
Now,
is it?
I think it's a good policy.
Oh,
thank you very much. gus not skifa thank you very much
and thank you to chad f was chad f and i think one other person sent me a couple of red book links Links from, yeah, let me see. Chad F. and M.W.
Whatever.
M.W. has a weird, who is that?
M.W.
Doesn't even have it.
It's anonymous.
They're the only ones who sent me a couple of links.
Not enough to make a show for a Redbook prediction show.
So if anyone still wants to do that, get your links in now.
Go to bingit.io and find your favorite Redbook prediction or discussion.
And people love this piece of art, though.
They said, hey, if that was a real book, I'd buy it.
Which immediately gave me exit strategy ideas.
Yes.
Now let's thank the people who are kind enough to give us some treasure, which, of course, we need to pay the bills.
And that comes in the form of our executive
and associate executive producers.
Kicking off today with Cassandra Fair,
I think F-E-H-R, Richmond, Texas.
$1,000 right off the bat.
Boom, Insta.
But not for her.
For my husband's knighthood,
he just told me that his two favorite jingles are
Rub-A-Lizer Out and Obama's 18.
John, do you have any idea what Obama's 18 is?
I could not come up with that.
I saw that and I couldn't figure it out either.
So I just grabbed another random Obama thing, if you don't mind.
If you could please add them to the de-douching.
We've got to give you a de-douching.
You've been de-douched.
Thank you.
On behalf of Sir Mopar of Fort Bend County, Texas, from Cassandra.
What a beautiful wife she is.
India, Tango, Mike, standby, 33, 33, 33.
Rob Eliza out.
The science is in.
The science is unequivocal.
Science.
He started off.
That was a good combo by itself.
Yeah, yeah.
Thank you.
Brian Watson, Sir Brian Watson in San Martin, California,
who usually shows up in the $50 donations week after week or show after show or month after month.
He comes in with $1,000.
Boom.
And he says, ITM, this donation is for my smoking hot wife, Connie.
Today she turns the big 33.
We have a lot of people that always turn 33 on this show it's
peculiar that's true all she wanted for her birthday was to sit at the round table on the
best podcast in the universe so that's what she'll get nice she'll need to write in with her official
dame name next time so this is a happy birthday this is a surprise a big surprise how nice well
so we're not going to dame her today until we find out what her dame name will be but we will give her the birthday list she's on the
birthday list and they always give me a biscuit on my birthday and a biscuit on your birthday
happy birthday now um red pill rabbit uh has a silver donation john has the note did we receive
some pieces of silver yeah and this is the, and I have to go over this.
Oh, problem.
He gave us coinage, but it's nothing like collect.
It's not numismatic valuable coinage.
What is it?
Just a lump of like an old.
Well, for example, he gave us five Canadian $8 silver coins, which is an ounce and a half of silver.
I can already hear you're annoyed by this somehow.
Clunky, clunky.
And then he gave us 20 American-produced one-ounce silver coins.
We have an eagle on one side and pretty much nothing on the back,
except kind of a blank area and some writing.
What is that? What kind of a blank area and some writing what is
that and what kind of coin is that so it's 20 ounces and seven and a half ounces about 27 and
a half pounds which is about 630 623 dollars at 23 dollars an ounce plus a i'd say a 20 percent
numismatic uh multiplier which is typically what you get if you have a not collectible
coin, but it's a coin that usually is worth 20% more than the silver value, which brings
it to around 700 to 750 bucks.
Wow.
That's by my calculation, crude calculation.
But if I took him over to a shop to dump him on the market, I think we'd get about $600 to $650.
But he can take credit for $750.
That's the way I see it.
Oh, that's very kind of you.
Now, are you going to take them over to the shop and sell them?
Well, here's what I'm thinking.
I mean, I can send you your half of the coins, but they're not super collectible.
But I'd say you want at least one.
I think we should both keep one of the $8 Canadian silvers because they're just stupid.
If you don't mind.
It's a real coin from Canada.
They're worth about $42 to $43 a piece.
Oh, interesting.
And it says $8.
Who makes a coin with $8 on it that's worth $43?
It's just dumb.
That must have a name.
There must be a name for that coin.
Well, this one is called the $8 silver coin.
You can look it up.
But this was the one with the silver fox on it.
So this is a silver fox, $8 silver Canadian coin.
Would you mind just sending me the silver? I like keeping that. You want the silver? coin. Would you mind just sending me the silver?
I like keeping that.
You want the silver? Yeah.
Is that okay? Do you mind?
Okay. I mean, yeah.
I think I'd just like the silver. I think that'd be kind of fun.
We'll talk about
how to do this specifically.
This is a pain in the ass, to be honest
about it.
When we run into it, okay, to be honest about it. Well, yeah. But when we run into it,
okay, we'll figure something out.
If you like the silver. And it's untarnished.
The coins, the Canadian
coins are all beat up. They look like hell.
But the other coins are kind of cool.
So for some reason, I'm just learning that
the Obama 18 jingle is this one.
There's a need for a rescue
mission. When the world is threatened,
the world needs help.
And that's the story. That's funny.
He meant a team.
She heard
a team.
She heard 18.
Oh, wow. That's great. Even I didn. Oh, wow.
That's great.
Even I didn't catch that one.
Well, yeah, she's probably in her 30s or late 20s.
She probably never saw the 18.
How old is her husband?
33.
Wasn't he the birthday boy?
Yes, there you go.
Oh, no, that's the birthday girl from Brian Watson. I don't know. don't know who knows how old i don't mind having the coins i like him i
like keeping the coins okay anonymous in bozeman montana is up with 467 um hey guys i signed a
fresh new contract now with 15 more compensation so i figured what better time to send over some treasure and finish off my
knighthood. Please dub me Sir Touchy Puss. Sir Touchy Puss, the knight of the Gallatin County
Fairgrounds, which I'm sure he's known by that name there too. In honor of the prolific drinkers
of western Montana, I'd like to bring breakfast beers.
They do that in Denmark, too.
And pork chop sandwiches or sand does to the round table. Like everyone else, I thank you deeply for the work you do as a man who deeply enjoys being correct and saying,
I told you so.
The No Agenda Show gives me the tools I need
to succeed at being a blast at parties.
Salute!
The douche of the party, obviously.
Thank you, brother.

Dame Trish of Detroit comes in.
And this is our first associate executive producer, 250.
And she has a typed note.
In the morning, John Adams.
It's been a while, so here's another donation towards my husband's knighthood.
Funds are finally loosening up after both of our kids got married within a six-month
time frame.
Love it when that happens. John, I've got a list
of facts going for the show website
as promised. I've thought of
several, and there are a few
more from my NA social request for
suggestions. We need to discuss these
on the phone. If you've
got answers, I can take dictation.
Do it today.
If not on the phone, via email will also work.
Please whitelist either both of my emails.
Whitelist them, John.
My attempts to email are always bouncing back as blacklisted.
Oh, that can't be.
I ask you, what did I ever do to deserve that?
Joking, of course.
Yeah, really?
Send them to me.
Send them to me, Trish.
I see.
She's wrote them in here.
I'll write.
Just send them to me.
I'll hand whitelist them.
Seriously, let's take care of this soon.
I'm sure folks will appreciate it.
Please give a shout out to our kids.
Congrats to Jenny and Michael and Patricia and Steven on their marriages.
How about a little goat karma and some shut up slaves to top it off? Value for
value. Be well, Dame Trish
of Detroit.
You've got
karma.
Shut up, slaves.
Those
Michigan women want to
get things done. Don't mess around.
Baronette Bill, meanwhile, in Greenville, South
Carolina. 246.9.
This is my second time working in area code 12345.
In area code 12345?
There's an area code, or is that a zip code?
Must be zip code.
Must be zip code.
In a month.
So I thought I'd double John's favorite donation number.
Please give me a
dr kiki jingle thanks for what you guys do baronet bill uh katie for aca 73s yeah 73 is

indiana man those guys are nuts there 231 231 is too long. In the morning, John and Adam from FEMA Region No. 5.
1580 marks the year when the Book of Concord was published,
which is a set of documents known as the Lutheran Confessions.
And he has a little history of that.
The first time I ever heard of the existence of no agenda
was from Anne Barnhart's blog post from June 25th.
Now, before you give me a jingle,
it's not actually a Barnhart donation.
Oh, I didn't start listening to the show that summer. The men responsible for finally hitting
me in the mouth are Dan and Dave of the Not Conformed podcast at notconformed.show. Dan is
a professor of neuroscience and Dave is a Lutheran pastor. They're brothers in Canada and they cover topics like propaganda, psychedelics,
Jungin for psychology, and COVID. I started listening to Not Conformed in the summer of 2021 when they started mentoring No Agenda by name. More often, I decided to check you guys out in
late summer, realized how similar the format was. Haven't missed more than a couple of your shows
since. To top it all off, Not Conformed had a short run of just 33 episodes.
Oh.
Oh, so I guess, did they end, they podfaded?
That's too bad.
It's hard to do.
They podfaded?
Yeah, they podfaded after 33 episodes.
Oh, that's a shame.
It sounds like they had a good podcast.
Yeah.
You know, people don't stick to it.
That's the problem.
It's hard.
It's hard.
Remember, there's four million
podcasts out there, but every
90 days, only 400,000
of them produce a new episode.
We do
eight,
nine a month, like two a week
of three
hours minimum each.
Anyway, while I'm at it, I recommend the podcast
A Brief History of Power and a Word
Fitly Spoken. He's promoting other podcasts.
Apologize for my long note.
Thank you for your courage. Godspeed, says Jonathan.
Thank you, Jonathan. We appreciate that.
Baroness Monica in Drayton Valley,
Drayton Valley, Alberta,
Canada, where the money used to be.

anniversary, John and Mimi. I'd also like to request
some much-needed health and
healing karma for my nephew, Lance.
Okay. Thanks a lot,

Scott Niva, or Niva,
in Livonia, Michigan.
20811, with
a note typed, I'd like to thank my buddy
Dave T. for hitting me in the mouth in 2019.
I realize with my family all listening to the show now that I live in a house full of douchebags.
I would appreciate a de-douching for myself.
You've been de-douched.
And would like to call out my wife Michelle.
Douchebags.
Son Nolan.
Douchebags. And, Nolan. Douchebags.
And especially my daughter, Nora.
Douchebags.
That's douchebags.
Can I get on the birthday list, 8-11?
Thanks for all you guys do.
The show is both informative and entertaining.
May you never find an exit strategy.
Any Biden gaffe jingle will do just fine.
The idea is we hold these true self-evident that all
men and women, we haven't lived up
to it completely, but we've always
widened the arc
of commitment.
It's got to be one of my favorites.
What a douche.
What the hell is he talking about? Who knows?
Dame Beth in Tucson, Arizona
206. Oh, yes, Dame
Beth. We know Dame Beth.
Heil, boys.

In the morning, John and Adam,
your shows have been terrific lately.
This is my annual switcheroo donation

I'm going to shoot you in the face with my noodle gun, you racist piece of shit.
I got my pasta glock locked and loaded.
You've got karma.
Did you mention it was a switcheroo for Brian Helft?
Yes, I read that verbatim.
Okay.
Dan Richman in Gainesville, Florida.
I proudly join as an associate executive producer.
Two things.
One, does Ricky Rektman stand ready
if you were to be unable to fulfill your no agenda duties?
Now that's just Dan being a dick.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
Two.
I will donate more if you renounce
your use of the term hair band
which marginalizes
an otherwise legitimate art
form of 80s hard rock
music.
Mega dildos.
Dan. Allow me to respond to
Yeah, well wait, hold on. is latin to me i don't
know what he's talking about but apparently you do yes we were talking about steel panther and i
said that they were basically doing a takeoff on 80s and 90s hair bands let me address question
one first ricky rackman um was given my show, The Headbangers Ball,
because he came in and wowed the executives at MTV
because his best friend Axl Rose came along to help him do his audition.
And so, of course, the weaklings, the star suckers that they were at MTV,
whoa, whoa, if Ricky can get to Axl well, then we need to have him host the show.
So it's just, it's just hurtful for him to say something like.
Oh, so you got booted because of some, some gimmick?
Yes.
Gimmick.
Thank you.
So to say, you know, will he be standing by to fulfill your NA duties if you're unable?
It's kind of mean.
Oh, that is dickish, dickish.
Now two. That's a kind is dickish, dickish. Now, two.
That's kind of a nerdy dickish.
Exactly.
Two, being a participant in the actual 80s and 90s,
hard rock and metal, I mean, with the same hair.
You're the guy
I am allowed
you have standing
I am the ambassador
of the hair band era
which I do not use as a
derogatory term
I'm very proud of being a part of that
and I believe that all of my compadres
in Bon Jovi, in Poison
in Rat, I'll even put Winger in there.
I think, I think every, Whitesnake, I think they all would say, yeah, man, we were hair bands.
That does not, does not detract from the outstanding musicianship of the era.
Mega dildos to you, Dan.

We just have producers who bring us time, talent, and treasure.

You can use them as such.
And if anyone ever questions you, I'll be very happy to vouch for you.
Thank you again for producing episode 1580 of the best podcast in the universe.
Our formula is this.
We go out,
we hit people in the mouth.
Shut up,
slave.
Shut up, slave.
That was a good segment.
I liked what everybody had to say.
It was good stuff, people.
Good stuff.
I agree.
Good stuff.
Well, do you want to do Africa?
You know, Africa, do my list. Because I got some kind of funny, I mean, some clarifying Africa stuff.
Let's put it that way.
Because there has been some changes.
Some things have been going on.
And actually, I can give you a little background.
Because the big question is, what are we doing in Africa?
What are we doing there?
Why is everyone so excited about africa
i got a couple of letters from some of our correspondent uh boots on the ground types
and this is some conflicting information that one thing that's kind of interesting to me
is that the guy the new dude that took over n. Oh, yes. I have some of this on.
He's an American trained guy.
Well, there's there's two.
That's no coincidence.
There's two new dudes, actually.
So we first need to start with.
Here we go.
This is now the Junta.
What is the official pronunciation of Junta?
Am I doing right?
Junta?
What is the official pronunciation of junta?
Am I doing right?
Junta?
You know, I believe if you look it up, you can pronounce it junta or junta.
But junta is the way we've always pronounced it traditionally in the United States when we refer to junta.
Well, would the Cambridge Dictionary be the one to ask?
I think the Oxford English would be better.
Junta.
Okay.
Junta.
Oh, junta. In UK, you can say junta? Junta. And in the US, you can say? be better. Junta. Okay. Junta. Junta.
In UK, you can say junta.
Junta.
And in the US, you can say?
Junta.
Junta.
Yeah, I've always felt it had two pronunciations.
Okay.
Anyway, let's first talk about or let's listen to some information about the guy who led the junta.
And I must give an appropriate warning.
Warning. Amy Goodman clip inbound.
And in New Jersey, we're joined by Nick Turse, investigative journalist,
contributing writer for The Intercept, recently revealed one of the leaders of the Coup in Niger, the Brigadier General Moussa Salou Bahmou, was trained by the U.S. military,
recently met with the head of U.S. Army Special Operations
Command, Lieutenant General Jonathan Braga, at the U.S. drone base in Niger. African officers
trained by the U.S. military have now taken part in 11 coups in West Africa since 2008.
We're going to start there, Nick Turse. If you can explain what's taken place in the last week,
and particularly the U.S. connection to the coup leaders. Yes, thanks so much for having me on,
Amy. By the way, this guy is from The Intercept, and I think, you know, The Inter, still being a Pierre Omidar, drive my car, don't go too far outfit. I think that he
is here on Amy's Democracy Now to express a certain message. Yes, thanks so much for having me on,
Amy. He's also very boring. You know, as you said, the United States has, you know, trained a number
of coup leaders in West Africa over recent years.
Nice little laugh, Till.
And this is part of the U.S. security strategy.
I mean, they've flooded this region, the West African Sahel,
with a tremendous amount of security assistance, really, since 9-11.
They poured a tremendous amount of security assistance dollars into the region.
They've built a plethora of small U.S. outposts.
You mentioned one of them, the U.S. drone base at Agadez. You know, they built up militaries
in the region at the expense of building up civilian institutions and civil society.
And this U.S. security assistance, U.S. counterterrorism paradigm
really hasn't been successful over this time.
Yeah, see, that's what I disagree with.
I think he's full of crap.
This is exactly what was supposed to happen.
We've had people lead, even questions in the Senate
or the House of Representatives about this.
Hey, all the guys that we train, they go on to do coups in these african countries
there's a reason for that which we'll get to but let's solidify that this that there's western
influences in this coup by looking at the new prime minister the junta has appointed
nijes military coup leaders have announced the appointment of a prime minister. In a statement read out on national television on Monday evening, Ali Mahamand Lamin Zain was announced as prime minister.
The announcement comes at a time when the international community is seeking to restore constitutional order.
Lamin Zain is not new to the office or government positions in Niger. He had been cabinet director in 2001,
then finance minister in 2002,
to turn around the chaotic economic and financial situation.
The latest appointments from the coup leaders also included that of the commander of the presidential guard.
It also comes a day after the expiration of ECOWAS's ultimatum
to restore President Mohamed Bazoum to office.
Okay, so they bring in a banker.
A banker.
Could you figure?
He was born in 1965, graduated from the Center for Financial, Economic, and Banking Studies in Marseille and Paris.
So when you hear prime minister, this is not some spear-chucking dude down there.
This is an elite he had worked as a resident representative of the african development bank in chad ivory coast and
gabon this is a banker they've brought in the banker they're they're open for business this
this is this is not a this is no coincidence what's going on here but it's
okay let's pretend and let's just let's do our best and see if we can make it look like we have
nothing to do with this where is she where in the world is victorian kagan noodleman outside
nateria senior united states diplomat has visited nijay to push coup authorities to restore democratic rule after overthrowing President Mohamed Bazoum last month.
U.S.A.'s acting Deputy Secretary of State Victoria Nuland revealed she held frank and difficult talks with military leader Moussa Salou Bamo
and three of his colonels in Niger's capital, Niamey. This visit makes it the first trip by U.S. officials to the country since the coup on the 26th of July.
Ms. Nolan further revealed that though requests to meet with Mr. Basim and self-proclaimed head of the military government,
Abdurrahmane Tiani, were denied, she reaffirmed her country's commitment to a negotiated solution to the conflict.
she reaffirmed her country's commitment to a negotiated solution to the conflict.
Recall that the U.S. State Department had on Monday confirmed he had made direct contact with the coup leaders
and had stressed the need for President Bassem to be reinstated.
And this is coming after military leaders seized power
in the landlocked West African country on the 26th of July,
detaining President Bassem's fucking international reactions.
Okay.
So, Newland,
she might not even have gone.
There's no pictures,
there's no, you know,
tarmac video of her,
none of that,
which she's usually pretty good
at doing that.
All of our diplomats are,
but okay, so I guess she did go
and, oh, it's been very tough
and they wouldn't let me talk to anybody.
Victoria Newland does not go somewhere not to get a meeting this is not the the type of woman she is not the type of whatever she is diplomat and of course i was well aware of the trans-saharan
gas pipeline the tsgp although i didn't necessarily think this was a pipeline play until I realized that this pipeline
which is supposed to bring natural gas to Europe
is operated by China.
Now we're getting into your territory, John.
Now things start to make sense.
And right away, European natural gas prices
explode 40% higher.
Europe, you're being screwed
by America and Russia.
We are literally screwing you over.
Yes.
Because this thing was supposed
to start delivering
mid this year.
I'm not sure exactly
where they're at but you know if
china was running that thing oh well no no doubt of course we're gonna have to stop that but i found
a good minute and a half explainer and i love that term explainer from um this outfit on youtube
called business basics it's just it gives you a little bit of a background of why we need to stop China from doing all this stuff in Africa.
China has been eyeing Africa for decades now.
As growth in China slowed down, the CCP realized that taking over Africa was the solution.
That's because Africa is expected to become a powerhouse in the coming decades.
When you think about global superpowers, countries
in Africa aren't the first ones that come to mind. As a superpower, you need to have a huge economy,
a powerful military, and a lot of international influence. Not a lot of African countries have
these things yet. But a few decades from now, this is going to be very different. In 2030,
But a few decades from now, this is going to be very different.
In 2030, 42% of the world's young people will be living in Africa.
By 2050, the prediction is that more than a quarter of the entire world's population will be African.
Countries like Nigeria, Ethiopia, Egypt, or Congo will have one big advantage over the coming years.
Their huge populations.
While the rest of the world is struggling with low birth rates and rapid aging,
African countries will experience exactly the opposite.
Their populations will be extremely young and it will be growing rapidly.
Just think about it. Italy only has 1.24 births per women,
while Nigeria's birth rate sits at a whopping 5.31.
These demographics will shape the 21st century.
You may have guessed this already,
but this population growth is creating a huge economic opportunity.
In fact, it is so important that today's superpowers
are fighting for influence in the continent.
So the way I see it, and by the way, Europe, you're not alone,
because the American people are also getting screwed by the bankers and ruling elites.
They flipped the script.
Instead of Bill Gates going to kill Africans with the vaccines,
they're killing us with the vaccines now.
So, you know, it's like, it's a lot easier.
You go into Africa, you train a guy, a little bit
of a coup, no problem. We come in, we kick the Chinese out, you know, maybe we get the Russians
to play along and we give the vaccine, the death shots to the Americans. And we make their kids
cut off the genitals and we don't need you. We know from the former New York banker, the only
way to success is by growing your population.
And so America is still doing that in the United States
by having open borders, completely wide open.
And Africa, well, I think they're going to let them grow.
I think they're stopping the, you know, let all the young Africans,
maybe let some of the Africans come to America, maybe.
I think a lot of them already are.
Well, there are a lot of Africans coming across the southern border,
along with Middle Easterners and everybody in between.
So we may have a transition period,
but we certainly don't want Americans running the show.
We want obedient people obedient workers okay i'm
channeling my inner george carlin now for some reason we want obedient workers keep just healthy
enough to push the buttons and fill out the forms and that may be the whole strategy
they've got bankers in there they've got the military running well they also the coups have
taken place across the country if you look at the coup map the coup map oh i like that the coup map
yes it's across the time it's right it's like forms a belt yeah from from east to west from
east to west it's like and niger was the one that was not in the belt. It became the belt buckle.
Ooh, the Niger belt buckle.
And so you have this, and it cuts off trade from the south to the north.
You can't get there from here.
I mean, you could ship stuff, but that's inefficient.
I like it.
Send it straight over.
But now the southern, Africa has been divided into two sections, the northern and the southern with a belt in the middle.
Yeah.
And I don't know what the strategy is to be.
I'm following what you have to say.
And I'm trying to, I'm not sure what the whole, I understand all the, you know, the craziness going on here and the trans movement and the rest and the Maoism everywhere.
I still can't put my finger on something.
There's something missing.
I got a note from a guy who blames the long essay.
It's a pretty good one on the fact that the Africans want the whole idea is it's got nothing to do with us.
They're trying to kick us out.
And even though I'm not convinced of this,
I'm not buying it.
I'm still with the U.S. and Russia being in collusion,
which is impossible to fathom.
Well, they're still playing some of the Russian card, actually.
I do have one report.
This is from Turkey Radio and Television.
A call for help from an increasingly isolated military junta in Niger.
The SOS is to Wagner, and it's something experts said was likely soon after the coup took place,
especially after Wagner's chief offered backing soon after the presidential guard seized power.
He gives them another opportunity to...
Oh, this is interesting.
So this is a consultant. Her name... I forget her... Oh, this is interesting. So this is a consultant.
Her name, I forget.
Oh, what is her name?
Her name is Annalise Bernard.
She is from the Strategic Stabilization Advisors, which is part of some rinky dink NGO, which, of course, is funded by USAID.
And she shows up now all of a sudden giving her
strategic opinion. But listen carefully to what she says.
After the presidential guard sees power, he gives them another opportunity to step in,
get paid for their services and make themselves relevant again, because after what happened a few
weeks ago in Russia, obviously, there's been a huge question mark about what is the relevance of the Wagner
group, who actually controls them and what is their role in participating and or influencing
global politics? I think it's pretty clear what this is. This is remarketing the Wagner group.
Oh yeah, no, no, no. It was clear the Wagner group there, they're to blame. Don't look at us.
Don't look over here. Look over there. Look at the Wagner Group. Oh, yeah, Pagosian, hot dog boy.
Yeah, he's in charge of it.
She literally is saying,
it's just repositioning, rebranding, remarketing.
Nah.
Nah.
It's going to unfold before us.
We're going to know soon enough exactly what the plan is.
Yeah, but our job is to figure it out before it happens.
Yeah, it's going to be hard.
But I...
I think so too,
because it's a big country.
But the...
It's not a country,
it's a continent.
But Europe was clearly planning
on this natural gas pipeline
to be the new...
the new inflow
to replace Nord Stream.
And that has now effectively been thwarted.
So that's cut off right at the belt buckle.
And it feels like we're involved.
I mean, we're right there.
It's our guy doing it.
We got another banker in there to be the prime minister.
When is Europe going to get a clue?
Oh, please.
And kind of figure out that hey they're getting
screwed here oh my god europe is so screwed yeah well you're going to be in europe next week
yeah i will be bringing screwed reports and i want to hear actually boots on the ground reports
from you when you talk to just the general public. So we leave tomorrow, and the first show will be from the Netherlands,
and that will be on Sunday.
Actually, do you want to start an hour earlier?
You can say no, but...
I can do it.
Wow.
That sounded so like I don't want to do it.
Well, that's different than do I want to.
Okay, we'll discuss. Because otherwise, I don't want to do it. Well, that's different than do I want to. Okay, we'll discuss.
Because otherwise, I don't start until 8 p.m.,
and so it'll be 1 in the morning by the time I get to bed after post-production.
Oh, okay.
Well, it might cost you a coin.
I have an $8 Canadian silver coin.
Will that work?
Did you look it up, by the way, that no i haven't i'm sure that i want to
know its nickname i'm sure that's a great nickname uh but i would like to play three quick clips here
regarding immigration in the united states since we're talking about it um the sanctuary cities
are freaking out the sanctuary states are freaking out well they're the big
talkers the big they're the big blowhards yes they are i mean i don't see if i have this
mayor adams man did he's out of control did you he i mean did you hear what he was saying
let me play this one because it's bad in New York, man. Listen to this.
Let me put it in perspective for New Yorkers. For each family seeking asylum through the city's
care, we spend an average of $383 per night to provide shelter, food, medical care, and social services. With more than 57,300 individuals currently in our care,
on an average night, it amounts to $9.8 million a day.
Almost $300 million a month and nearly $3.6 billion a year. But this is the flaw, not the ceiling.
It's the flaw.
This is only an estimate if the number of migrants in our care stays the same over time.
It is clear to us, however, that without policy changes, the number of migrants arriving will continue to grow.
This will increase our costs.
If we continue down this unsustainable track with an average of almost 34,000 households a night over the course of just this fiscal year, that will increase costs to $4.7 billion.
Hear me.
If things do not change, our new estimates have us spending nearly $5 billion on this crisis in the current fiscal year.
That's up from the $1.4 billion we spent last fiscal year that's up from the 1.4 billion we spent last fiscal year and it nearly equals the
budgets of sanitation department our parks department and the fdny combined and you know
this is a sanctuary city they had a really big mouth when it was time for you know elections like oh yeah oh we're woke oh we're all in and
i'm gonna give uh governor abbott props he said you know what why don't you see what that's like
because oh is texas supposed to swallow all of these people we have people sleeping in the
airports in in el paso there's there's there's buses going right through Fredericksburg, luckily on the way to Kerrville. But Kerrville is only 30 minutes away.
Now, this is a disaster.
And now, finally, people are starting to figure it out.
But it's these leaders like Mara Healy, the governor of Massachusetts.
This is a year ago when she was running for governor.
And she played, oh, I'm going to be the first lesbian woman to be governor.
Well, here's what she had to say at the time.
I think it's really important that cities and towns have the ability,
have the exercise and prerogative to label themselves
whatever they want to label themselves.
And if they want to take on the sanctuary city designation,
I think that's great um i think cities and towns
are in the position to be able to do that and i've seen it done like a value statement as a
statement of principles that's great i support that yeah i support it yes sanctuary cities is
great we can be that we're a sanctuary state vote for for me! Sometime later. As of today, close to 5,600 families with children are living in state-funded shelters, hotels, dorms, and other emergency facilities across Massachusetts.
That figure is 80% higher than it was just one year ago.
And it's unsustainable.
For this reason, today I am declaring a state of emergency in massachusetts
there you go but know very well people of the heat dome cities that you're you are being robbed
you are being robbed and luckily there's one older woman in chic Chicago who has figured it out, and she's asking some annoying questions.
Is every migrant really getting $7,000 worth of care every month?
At least $120 million tax dollars.
Heads need to roll.
Alderwoman Jeanette Taylor recently tried to get spending details from the people in charge of migrant operations.
I saw nothing in the presentation about how much money we're spending.
That slide, I guess, got lost.
For six months, CBS2 has been trying to get a breakdown of what money is going where,
what businesses and what organizations are being paid.
We've spent half a year fighting City Hall for migrant spending records
because taxpayers deserve to know.
In February, we filed this Freedom of Information Act request, a FOIA, which requires the city to turn over public records.
About a month later, we got a response.
We showed Alderwoman Taylor our back and forth with an Office of Budget and Management official who asked for time to cobble together expenses.
They said they don't have those records available yet.
No records on more than $100 million spent?
Then that's BS.
Y'all know some of that is some shady dealings.
That's what that is.
Somebody lying.
Somebody lying.
That's right.
Your money's being stolen.
It's the same with the drug dealers on the street. the money's being stolen it's the same with the with the drug
dealers on the street your money is being stolen the all these organizations that you know oh we'll
help the homeless no i don't know they're giving a methadone which they never get off of it's
all of this has been captured yeah wouldn't you say
absolutely
just money they're just stealing money
they are stealing money
if you can't get the records and that woman's right
you know they put the request
and they well okay we spent
100 million but we don't have any records of anything
okay sure
that's like the pentagon
it's like the pentagon
you know you someone sent us this I'm not going to play it,
this clip of Farage, Nigel Farage, talking about, you know, he was debanked.
And I thought on the back and forth,
you said that the one million debanked was a sketchy number.
Yeah, I saw that clip.
Yeah, I'm not going to play it but but this this turns out to
be true nat west in the uk is debanking by their own admission about a thousand accounts a day
and and people are being debanked for all kinds of reasons. But also, NatWest is now telling businesses to stop accepting cash.
They won't even let businesses deposit cash into the bank over a certain limit.
See, it's like some crazy amount.
This is always about NatWest.
$1,000 a day is $300,000 a year, which means this hasn't been going on for three years.
I don't think it has.
Four years.
No, the article in the telegraph says four years. Okay, four years is $1,000 a year, which means it hasn't been going on for three years and I don't think it has. Four years. No, the article in the Telegraph says...
Okay, four years is $1.2 million.
If they had that many accounts to begin with,
there's something very sketchy
about Farage, NatWest,
and this whole complaining.
I have not seen any breakdown of it.
Well, NatWest...
Well, Telegraph has done quite a good job of this.
They actually have done quite some investigation.
Not the only bank in the world.
No, but NatWest does own a lot of banks in the UK.
And Farage's bank was owned by NatWest.
Maybe NatWest is in trouble.
That's very possible.
I'm not sure.
But it seems like there's a real push in the uk
to screw and penalize people with cash even and we'll see this i'm sure with parking paying to
park used to be simple the only challenge was having the right change but in the south london
borough of sutton putting money in a machine now comes with a surcharge and hours parking in
wallington costs two pounds if drivers use an app,
but £3 if they pay at the machine.
I don't have a phone that has an app on it anyway.
It's unfair, but I'm desperate, so I need it.
I need to pay.
When you're old, you know, you don't know what apps are and all that.
Do you ever think about paying with cash?
I used to, I don't very often now.
My wife asked me to set it up and she goes out in the car,
so no, we generally use the app all the time.
Councils in London began charging for parking in 1958
when the first meters appeared.
This is primarily to relieve congestion
and to share out fairly the limited curb space in central London.
65 years on, the parking meter has given way to smart parking
with most councils relying on apps like ringo ringo ringo yeah so instead of two pounds three pounds
if you want to pay with cash this is good this is this is this is not okay
there's definitely something happening.
There's a lawsuit waiting to happen.
Let's see what happens.
And just speaking of banks.
Meanwhile, on Wall Street, stock futures were lower overnight after the credit agency Moody's downgraded 10 regional banks.
Among those taking a hit was M&T Bank, the nation's 19th largest.
One concern is higher interest rates, which force banks to pay customers more money to their savings.
The downgrades come just months after the downfall of Silicon Valley and signature banks.
Moody's says it will also review the financial health of six large banks, including Bank of New York Mellon and U.S. Bancorp.
Hey, so I had not heard the most recent DH unplug.
You guys talk about this at all? About the bank downgrade?
Yeah, we talked about it.
What is going on?
You have to listen to the show.
This can't be healthy.
This can't be good.
This can't be good.
But it's something of a, because of the downgrade of the U.S. debt by Fitch.
Yeah.
It's a cascade effect.
Everyone's going to be downgrading everything they can to get into it.
And it's also mentioned,
Horowitz reminded me,
that these credit rating agencies are always,
they're in at the end.
When all hell's broken loose and things are over,
then they come in with their downgrade.
In other words, this is the peak. You don't downgrade after the in other words this is the peak well don't you don't
don't you don't downgrade don't you think to help people they made the mistake of of giving all the
eight you know all the stellar ratings before the 2008 2009 yeah all those all those bad that bad
paper that was all over the place was given triple a until it crashed right but maybe they've learned
their lesson and now they're doing this ahead of time no nobody assumes this i do in their lesson
i'm oh wow there's a good wall street's learned his lesson no no well they don't learn their
lesson listen to this well we're in trouble uh Credit card debt in America has reached a new high.
A report released by the Federal Reserve yesterday shows credit card debt has now passed the $1 trillion mark.
And a significant chunk of that debt was accrued this summer.
The Fed says about $45 billion of credit card debt was racked up between the months of April and June.
So for more on this, let's bring in Jennifer Streaks.
She's the senior personal finance reporter for Insider.
Jennifer, good to see you.
I think what she was saying there is that $45 billion was written off.
The banks wrote that off, but there's still a trillion of credit card debt,
which spiked this summer.
This is not going in the right direction.
This is not okay.
So first off, my question is why?
Is this just because we've been dealing with inflation
and so everything's costing more?
And why a spike this summer?
Yeah, I mean, everything is just overall more expensive.
Groceries, gas, just the cost of living in general.
And so there are many households that are using credit cards to bridge the gap.
They're using it as an extension of their income.
And in terms of this summer, we're seeing higher levels of travel.
There's just more to do around the summertime.
Also, right now, for instance, it's back to school.
It's off to college.
And so if you're a household that is under
financial strain, you're using
credit to make things happen
for your family this summer.
Man, the prices
are off the hook.
I'm going to Europe
where the euro is
10% more.
Yeah, it's 10% more right now.
How does that even happen?
Why is the euro 10% higher than the dollar?
The euro is no better.
I don't understand why it's not at parity or less, but it's been higher.
It's been up to 25% more, if you remember.
I certainly do.
Wow, this is just not good.
The pound is reasonable.
Yeah, well, no, but it was really reasonable when they had that pension thing going on.
It was down to 113 or something.
Now it's back up.
I'll take a look.
I'm not going to the UK.
I'll play this last bit of this CBS report.
Apparently, delinquency rates are also pretty high and that people are waiting sort of beyond the 30 days to pay down their debt.
What does that say? That people are struggling, that the strength is getting to be too much.
They're not paying their bills on time. We are seeing delinquencies up, especially with credit card and auto loan payments. So people just they
just aren't making their payments on time, but they're still using credit. And so that means
that they're getting in debt in other ways. Buy now, pay later, opening up newer credit accounts,
not taking care of the old credit card debt. Yeah. God knows every time you buy something
online, there's always that option to pay for it in installments now no matter how cheap the item is and that can definitely get you
into trouble at this point i would like to point out something very important that the only thing
that has not increased during this inflationary period which should have been transitory is the
price of an executive producership, an
associate executive producership, or a knight or damehood.
That has not increased. That has remained
the same. Your no agenda show
is bucking the trend.
Yeah, and we've actually talked about this.
And we're not changing anything.
Are we?
Nope, we're going down with the whole
economy.
I'm going to show my support by donating to No Agenda.
Imagine all the people who could do that.
Oh yeah, that'd be fab.
Yeah, on No Agenda.
In the morning.
And we do have a few people to thank for show 1580.

It is important in these turbulent times
when things are confusing,
when you need your community.
And remember, connection is protection.
Noagendameetups.com.
If you can't find one near
you start one yourself sometimes you want to go hang out with all the nights and days
you want to be where you won't be triggered or held to blame you want to be where everybody feels the same
where everybody feels the same.
It's like a party.
Well, I think we're both swinging for the fences today with the ISOs.
I got four.
I think you have four as well.
All right, your turn to go first.
Okay, this is an obvious one. Don't eat me, Joe Biden.
It's because he was a cute little kid from the Meetup Report.
They have this one.
Everybody's always blaming me for everything.
That's from, that's actually from, I think it was from the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air when Trump was on as a bit part.
This one.
Somebody lying.
Somebody lying.
And the last one.
The walls are closing in.
Okay, I think I can top those.
I have some classics.
I did some research and I dug up some oldies.
We've done these before?
No, we've never done any of them.
Oh, okay.
Well, you've heard this one before
because it wasn't really designed to be an ISO,
but I wanted to play it.
This is the classic Do It Live.
Do it live!
I'll write it and we'll do it live!
Yes, okay.
Always a winner.
Then this one, fake balls.
Fake balls are a real business.
How old are we?
15?
More pertinent today than ever.
And try this one.
Who doesn't have a podcast? Who doesn't have a podcast?
Who doesn't have a podcast at this point?
I'm kind of liking that.
And then last, the one that is always usable is thanks.
Thanks so much.
Well, I'm thinking.
Who doesn't have a podcast at this point?
I'm kind of liking that one.
Yeah, I'll go with that.
I think that's the one we should go with.
Indeed.
Well, I feel like we've left a lot of...
Oh, you know what?
I do have a very important clip.
One of our producers has really taken to...
I think his name is Toldar.
He's really doing the C-SPAN beat.
Now, let's be honest, it's hard.
I mean, that call-in show,
you really have to watch it to get the good stuff.
It's time-consuming.
Yeah.
I mean, C-SPAN is great for hearings,
and you want to see what the latest...
And that's time-consuming.
And I do a lot of that.
I have it on all the time in the background.
But the morning show,
the Washington Journal,
where people come in,
if you really want to catch the good stuff,
you got to watch it.
So I'm appreciative of this clip.
Thank you, Eric.
Let's hear from Pete.
Pete is on our independent line from Alabama.
Hello.
Hey, how you doing today?
I'm thank you.
I thank you for letting me in
on your Communist Socialist Party
anti-national station.
And I would like my question is, I just wonder how many dogs Obama has ate since he's been out of office.
OK, we're going to go to Frank.
I love it when they get through.
Well, they let him talk.
They let him finish the sentence. Good. That was good. I mean, come on. That was a pretty good. Well, they let him talk. They let him finish the sentence.
That was good.
I mean, come on.
That was a pretty good.
And then they cut him off.
They cut him off after they finished his sentence because they know that's good material.
This is good broadcasting.
This is what keeps people watching.
Of course.
How many dogs?
Where's that from?
How many dogs Obama ate since he left the White House?
Dogs.
It's racist. It's just a racist thing
and it's been what what's racist about it what do black people eat dogs i never heard this
i'm just telling you what what anyone who is woke listening to this podcast will say we're just
racist racist i didn't say racist i said racists it's different racist racist yes exactly well i got a couple ticked i got a
talker that you might want to hear oh my goodness he's gonna talk you don't stop
tick tock you don't stop talk tick tock all right this is uh now does this does this fall under our
uh uh under our our current uh uh our current our current
category.
Now it's time for our trans-mouse
agenda update.
Self-destruct initiated.
I bet it does.
Non-binary.
Okay, here we go.
Oh, sorry.
That's not the one. Don't play that one.
That's a good one, though.
This is the trans-hate girl.
Lord, help us. Listen to this.
There's so much trans hate in the world.
Sorry. There's so much trans hate in the world right now, and I'm so done with it.
And pride just means that we are unabashedly happy just to be alive.
Yeah.
Anna, where do you personally feel that that hate is coming from?
Most places, but especially the
government and uh in your own life where would you say that you feel the hate the most um i feel like
i kind of internalize a lot of the hate so it feels like it mostly comes from myself at this
point because you can't make it up y'all heard it so this matches up with the earlier clip we had where most of the climate change worriers are all climate change nuts.
And she's a trans hating herself.
I mean, these people are internalizing these issues and having problems and they wonder why.
Before you go to your next clip i know i don't need to
play the next one this one i was good uh boots on the ground from the psych nurse our psych nurse
is back she's in california she's anonymous but she is in the southern california psych ward
and after hearing you guys wonder why there are more female to male trans, be it adult or kids, I think I have an answer.
This is important information. Many of my bio-female patients, which means biological,
who are trans or identify as non-binary or anything other than female, all day they don't want kids when they grow up because they are either grossed out or scared of the idea of pregnancy.
One kid last week says she finds it gross that another human grows inside you like a parasite.
These kids are not being taught proper or basic sex education,
that girls grow up to be women and boys grow up to become men.
Instead, they are confused with trans education all throughout elementary school with 20-something-year-old teachers with blue hair who themselves are disgusted or scared of pregnancy and birth and see it as a burden to live a life to take care of a child.
The teacher promotes this lifestyle to an impressionable elementary kid who feels like they don't fit in.
my observations working with psychiatric patients who are trans lgbt who are at my hospital for suicidal thoughts or actual attempts since the pandemic started since the pandemic started oh
and not a single one has come in for being suicidal because of a failed transition or regret
at least not so far so i shot our psych nurse a note back and said,
well, why are they suicidal and depressed?
Answer.
I think they more so feel like they don't know what to do
because of all the adult guidance.
Internet personalities and mainstream
give brownie points to them for their trans journey.
When these kids really have much bigger issues than that.
We've talked about this.
They have issues and they're just like, oh, you're a boy.
I think they're afraid to admit it.
And they double down on the trans narrative.
They think that they have to follow in order to not disappoint someone.
Well, that does lead to that clip
that i was going to skip okay which is a non-binary uh looks like a female i guess i can't tell uh
professor classes start today and one of my students emailed me yesterday saying hey this
is my name and these are my pronouns please respect me so i decided let's look as
visibly gender non-conforming as possible including my little can i get it they them
and it says i'm a fun guy my classroom is a safe space so let So let me finish what our psych nurse says.
Often they can be heard telling stories to one another
of what they did for the trans community and whatnot,
like standing up to an adult that used the wrong pronouns.
Nails it.
Right there, nails it. there nails it these poor children and they have been convinced of of of this
illness it's been convinced of of this self-righteousness the pronoun thing is self-righteous yeah yeah it is
oh yay okay well that's not at all depressing um that's the way we end the show yeah yeah let me
see well i got something maybe i guess well how about the fbi shooting the trump supporter i
that's my favorite story of the day you know I love this and I love that you went through this.
And then I will have, I do have one more clip I want to share,
but I love that you,
because you've split this up because this was a,
like a three and a half minute report.
And I know exactly why you split this up because it's worth it.
See, whenever I go into the studio in the morning,
I get your clips first.
I don't listen to them. I just look at the titles at the titles i'm like oh he's already got it because this was an amazing
segment on msnbc well this pic i picked this one off of uh katie turr who brought msnbc on her
special little streaming show and they brought she brought some guy in who's reporting on this and there is no answer.
They will not tell anybody.
This is like,
remember when the,
those brothers in Boston,
they went and visited a friend of theirs and shot the guy.
Yes.
The Zarniff.
Zarniff.
Yeah.
Whatever their names were.
Hold on.
Before we play these clips, may I take us back to June 19th, episode 1565?
Yeah.
Did you catch the six-week cycle?
I can't say that I have.
A reminder for everybody.
And I'm not on the lookout, which is an interesting point, now that you mention it.
Well, we haven't seen it for a while.
Well, it's been a perpetual cycle basically but the six-week cycle is something that uh we were read in on the
fbi in particular likes to jack somebody or technically read in on it we were informed by a
yes yeah okay informed by a producer yes informed that in order to keep their budgets and their stature and their quotas up, the FBI, every six weeks, needs to have some—
Runs a scam.
Runs a scam, has to have some event happen so that they still look like they're cool and doing stuff.
And they usually take some mildly retarded person or someone who's on drugs and jack them all up and then give them some phony baloney stuff.
And then, you know, and of course, with social media, it got even easier.
Hey, man, post this. What are you going to do? What are you going to do? Come on, post me. Send me a text message. Put it on Insta.
Tonight in court filings, the FBI saying social media accounts tied to a Michigan man posted Nazi imagery and sent messages about planning a mass shooting at a synagogue.
And here we are pretty much exactly six weeks later.
And I'm wondering whether this guy even exists, because the story is very sketchy.
The FBI has killed a man in Utah.
sketchy. The FBI has killed a man in Utah. Officials say Craig D. Robertson was making violent threats toward President Biden in time to his visit to Utah, which is expected later today,
along with threats to D.A. Alvin Bragg. Joining me now is NBC News investigative correspondent
Tom Winter. So the FBI doesn't kill people just for saying things. What happened? Right. So they
had been conducting investigations since March
where, according to charging documents
in the search warrant affidavit,
which we've received,
our colleague, Andy Blankstein,
they started investigation in March of this year.
The FBI received a tip-off
from a social media company,
and it doesn't say which one,
and we're in the process of trying to confirm.
A social media company is saying,
hey, this person, Craig Dbertson of provo utah
is saying some things that you might want to look into and the fbi began an investigation
based on a number of posts that directly referenced president joe biden vice president
harris as well as manhattan district attorney alvin bragg who's obviously one of the people
who's brought an indictment against former president Trump. Yep.
So Trump has to be brought in because it's got something to do with him.
And so we go with that.
So she's going to now ask him,
and then the last clip's going to be the same thing.
She's going to ask him about the circumstances of the shooting.
In the course of their investigation,
they said that they went up to him, they surveilled him,
that he confirmed to them that he was who he was, that these were his posts.
At some point, according to the charging documents, he says, hey, FBI, if you're still monitoring my posts, know that I've got a gun by my side in case you ever want to come by again.
He made a direct threat against President Joe Biden on Monday.
Later this afternoon, the president travels to Utah.
So obviously there's some concern there.
The threat against Alvin Bragg was particularly graphic and specific.
It did state that he wanted to kill him.
He posted photos with guns.
He posted photos with what the FBI calls a sniper rifle.
When they observed him, they said that he was wearing some sort of a white shirt, a darker suit. He had some
sort of a camouflage hat on him that said the word Trump on the top of it, as well as an AR-15 pin.
As a matter of course, Katie, the FBI's inspection division, which reviews any FBI-involved shooting,
will take a look at this. In these court documents. We're still going through. But the bottom line here is this individual made a number of threatening comments and particularly
violent comments against these people. And just go back to what happened when they confronted him
and what led to the actual shooting. Right. So there were two incidents. Back in March,
they confronted him, as they typically do. And usually the FBI tries to talk to you and say,
are you the one making these threats?
Do you really want to make these type of threats and try to have some sort of an interaction
that doesn't end the way that it is?
Just say, hey, listen, this is not a good idea.
Maybe not a good idea.
And apparently he confirmed the accounts.
He said, look, this particular post you're referring to, I said it was a dream where
I dreamed of carrying out these violent acts, but it's a dream, he says, according to the
charging documents.
He said, next time you come back here, you better have a warrant.
And he ended the communication after that point.
That was according to the search warrant affidavit.
So that's when they observed him.
They conducted some surveillance, wanted to understand who he was.
And at that point, obviously, this investigation continued forward.
But how did it lead to a shootout?
How did they?
Yes, thank you, Katie Church.
She's not been read in. I think you're right. Guy doesn't exist. Didn't happen. But how did it lead to a shootout? How did they? Yes, thank you, Katie Turrett.
She's not been read in.
I think you're right.
Guy doesn't exist.
Didn't happen.
Didn't happen.
So she asks one more time, which you just heard.
And here's how it ends.
So this morning they were attempting to execute an arrest warrant against him.
They were going to take him into custody on three counts,
a violation of making interstate threats effectively, influencing, impeding, or retaliating against federal law enforcement officers, and then specifically threats against
the President of the United States. Those three counts they were trying to arrest him on this
morning, as well as conduct a search. And because they were trying to conduct a search, that's why
we have so much detail about his post. It's included in the search warrant affidavit.
Tom Winter, Tom, thank you
very much.
I love how she
asked him three times. He gives no
answer. She finally says, okay,
what were the circumstances of the shooting?
We have so much detail about the search
warrant, but okay, thanks.
Come on.
That's great.
That's just great.
I think it's a six-week cycle bullcrap story.
Well, you know, yeah, you have to be right on that because...
It's six weeks.
Just the dates.
If we looked at the dates, they're just not well done anymore.
Ever since we lost the terrorist angle, these are bad scenarios.
They don't make any sense.
This guy was babbling.
The guy's in a dream.
He said he was in a dream.
Then he said he wasn't.
Then he had a gun.
He says he could bring a warrant.
There's no solidity to the story.
It doesn't have any foundational believability.
Well, you know, the CIA is getting all the action.
They've got Ukraine.
They're doing their stuff in Africa.
FBI's pissed. Like, we
want some ink.
Money. Money.
And then finally today,
a no-agenda public service announcement.
Beware!
Apple AirPods appear to be exploding
in people's ears. Have you heard of this?
No, but it doesn't
surprise me. Something's going on. Have you heard of this? No, but it doesn't surprise me. Something's
going on. The tiny pieces of these Apple AirPods fit into Jason Colon's hand. The left is intact,
the right blown apart and charred. It was the craziest thing I've ever went through.
Colon of Tampa was listening to a dance mix at the LA Fitness on 4th Street in St. Petersburg
when he noticed something strange.
And then I saw white smoke starting billowing out.
He left the AirPods on a piece of workout equipment and got help.
When he returned...
It already popped.
I mean, I didn't, you know, see it happen,
but I mean, it was already, it already dried.
There's a lot of these reports that I'm seeing online.
A lot of people showing their ear pods is blown apart.
Lithium.
This is a dangerous product.
This is exactly right.
People.
Oh, man.
But this is bad for Apple because there's people whose ears are shot.
That's a lawsuit waiting to happen.
Blows it blows up.
They're going to have to pull us off the market.
Yeah.
And we successfully got through more than three hours,
didn't talk about the Trump indictment or the Biden crime family once.
We got lucky.
That's why we are the best podcast in the universe.
If you want to hear people talking about that like Twitter, they're out there.
It's everywhere.
You don't have to really search.
Well, how come you didn't talk about Obama Chef?
That's my favorite.
Maybe that's a reference to the dog.
Ah, well, there you go.
Coming up next on noagendastream.com or in that fancy modern app you are listening to,
we've got Hog Story.
Hog Story with Fletcher and Blaney.
And really only one end-of-show mix.
