Starting point is 00:00:00 Nah, we don't, uh, just, just, no, don't worry about it. Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak. It's Thursday, September 28th, 2023. This is your award-winning Gibbon Nation Media Assassination episode 1594. This is no agenda. Dodging the large language models 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.
Starting point is 00:00:24 And from Northern Silicon Valley, where we've noticed they've gone nuts in Canada. I'm John C. Dvorak. It's Crackpot and Buzzkill. In the morning. This is the best, the best thing that could have happened. Hey, you know, Canada wants to get more coverage on our show. Yeah, they'll do anything. It's absolutely the best.
Starting point is 00:00:49 And we saw this happen. I kept getting on notes from people. I'm like, well, we don't really have any reports, you know, because we deconstruct media. I'll just kick this off with two short ones from ABC. So here's earlier in the week also in canada an uproar after a former nazi got a standing ovation in the canadian parliament it all started when ukraine's president spoke to lawmakers then the speaker of the house praised a 98 year old ukrainian man who once served in a nazi unit accused of genocide the man's past had apparently
Starting point is 00:01:22 not been vetted the speaker speaker apologized, but is facing calls to resign. And then the next report. There's new fallout after a former Nazi was invited to the Canadian Parliament and got a standing ovation. It happened while Ukraine's president was visiting. The Speaker of the House, who invited the 98-year-old former Nazi from Ukraine,
Starting point is 00:01:40 has now resigned for not properly vetting that guest. I have the poignant clips, including three kind of chronological clips, because Trudeau said one thing, then he came out and said another thing, and then he came into the front of the house. But what was wrong with that report, and it was a classic example of mishandled, he got two standing ovations, not one. Can I just say one thing?
Starting point is 00:02:09 That whole parliament, everybody there should just be wiped away. They're all dumb. How dumb are these people? First of all, it's not the Russians. It was the Soviets. They're dumb. They're dumb. They're completely brainwashed and stupid.
Starting point is 00:02:32 As I pointed out in the newsletter in one of the photos, these people giving the standing ovation, including members of the military, high-ranking members of the military that were sitting next to this guy, clapping away like like like trained seals and not i mean but literally hands above their head you're like oh yeah yeah f russia f putin hello dummies man are they dumb and i think you saw the speaker hesitate for a second he had like this this little i think he realized when he was reading he fought
Starting point is 00:03:08 against the Russians. Wait a minute. You could just see something in his brain. Well, I have that. I have that. Alright, I'll let you go. I didn't notice that. I thought he was just robotically reading what he was putting. And by the way, before we play any of these clips, I've got four
Starting point is 00:03:24 of them oh good um i think he was set up there's no doubt in my mind that this whole thing was a setup to humiliate the liberal party well that worked and they did some humiliation of their own later well their own parties are when they stood up and clapped the loudest and And then the guy who is the speaker of the house, not the speaker, but the head of the opposition, he's just all in on this war. You can tell when you hear him. I've got a clip of him. That's not a bad theory that you have there, that this was set up not to get rid of the speaker per se, but embarrass the uh the the liberals in the embarrassed both
Starting point is 00:04:07 parties but it embarrassed it embarrassed the government of canada yes yes and and how did it come to be we've never had a full explanation supposedly so speakers had a friend and somebody suggested it this sounds like a setup it started with no i noticed him in the gallery oh boy i look there's my guy 98 years old nazi hunter i mean oops okay so we start with uh this is the true this is the how trudeau house speaker this is the trigger this is the speech that that highlighted him and got him to two rounds of standing ovations. We have here in the chamber today, Ukrainian Canadians, Ukrainian Canadian world veteran from the Second World War who fought the Ukrainian independence against the Russians.
Starting point is 00:04:57 Oops. And continues to support the troops today, even at his age of 98. Woo! Yeah! F. Putin! He's a Ukrainian hero, a Canadian hero, and we thank him for all his service. Thank you. So that was Trudeau. No, no, no. That was the Speaker of the House. Oh, the Speaker. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:05:25 That was the Speaker of the House. Okay, I was confused. I know, he sounds like him. It could have been. I mean, the voice is almost identical. But no, that was not Trudeau. So here's Trudeau. Right after this happens,
Starting point is 00:05:38 this is the first thing Trudeau does when he freaks out. And this is Trudeau does when he freaks out. And this is this is Trudeau Nazi apology. Obviously, it's extremely upsetting that this happened. The speaker has acknowledged his mistake and has apologized. But this is something that is deeply embarrassing to the Parliament of Canada and by extension to all Canadians. I think particularly of Jewish MPs and all members of the Jewish community across the country who are commemorating Yom Kippur today. I think it's going to be really important that all of us push back against Russian propaganda, Russian disinformation,
Starting point is 00:06:21 and continue our steadfast and unequivocal support for Ukraine, as we did last week with announcing further measures to stand with Ukraine in Russia's illegal war against it. Hey, happy Yom Kippur, everybody. Russia bad. Did that one end with the Russia disinformation disinformation yeah that's how it ended yeah um yeah right well so then he has to backtrack on that because he got a bunch of flack from uh before he goes in front of parliament we have uh producer nicholas sent me this note with a timeline wait nick sends you stuff too? All these guys do this.
Starting point is 00:07:10 They're all bipolar. No, they send stuff to me. They send stuff to you. I mean, we do have some of the same clips, which people, you got to be careful. If you send it to both of us, then send it to me. It often doesn't get played at all. Right, but that's only if we're both on the email. But they send it to you and send it to me separately then we actually both wind up with the same clips yeah yeah don't do that
Starting point is 00:07:30 don't do that people they choose one all right so he goes on he mentions that the polish ambassador made a plea for an apology from the government that recognizes polish grievances. And then I guess the Rotor resigned. The Rotor resigned after the clip we just heard. You know, he says, well, he's still there. But then he resigned afterwards. And after he resigned, we got the second version of the same apology by Trudeau. And this is Trudeau's Nazi revised apology. In this case, what he did was he took in everybody who felt aggrieved and even
Starting point is 00:08:06 people who didn't feel aggrieved. He put them on this list of I'm sorry to you and you and you and you and you. In a few moments, I will address the House in front of all Canadians, in front of Jewish people here and around the world and Ukrainians to offer Parliament's unreserved apologies for what happened on Friday. The Speaker was solely responsible for the invitation and recognition of this man and has wholly accepted that responsibility and stepped down. This was a mistake that has deeply embarrassed Parliament and Canada. All of us who were in this House on Friday regret deeply having stood and clapped, even though we did so unaware of the context. It was a horrendous violation of the memory of
Starting point is 00:08:54 the millions of people who died in the Holocaust, and it was deeply, deeply painful for Jewish people. It also hurt Polish people, Roma people 2slgbtqi plus people disabled people racialized people no and the many millions no no no stop no no this is edited this is edited he did not say two-spirit people disabled people did he yes no it's not edited believe me this is this is crazy let me hear this again. And it was deeply, deeply painful for Jewish people. It also hurt Polish people, Roma people, 2SLGBTQI plus people, disabled people, racialized people, and the many millions who were targeted by the Nazi genocide. Nicholas, you're off my list. I can't believe you gave that clip to John.
Starting point is 00:09:48 No, he didn't give me any clips. Oh, okay. I'm sorry. Alright, he's back on the list. This is dynamite. In fact, I gotta give this to you right away. Clip of the day. I mean, if you had told me that was AI, I would have believed it too. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:10:03 He went nuts. The Nazis were going after two-spirited people? Really? We had two spirits back in the day? Oh, yeah. Everything in between. Wow. So then he goes to Parliament. How about dwarfs? We should have had the dwarfs. You're right,
Starting point is 00:10:19 because dwarfs should be on the list. He's got to go back and redo this. He said Roma. He just said gypsies. Anyway, I'm sorry. I'll be quiet list. He's got to go back and redo this. He said Roma. So he just said gypsies. Anyway, I'm sorry. I'll be quiet now. That's crazy. What an idiot.
Starting point is 00:10:31 So then he goes to the guy, the head of the opposition, who's Pierre. His last name is, I had it written down. I put it on the other desk. But it's an interesting name. Polly, Polly poly poly poly a or something yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah but the poly a i think the poly and so uh he condemns uh trudeau and then trudeau comes and now you hear the apology the official apology in front of parliament and it's lame. security, intelligence, and diplomatic agencies that could have and should have vetted all
Starting point is 00:11:27 individuals who were present and recognized. Yet this Prime Minister allowed for a monumental, unprecedented, and global shame to unfold in this chamber. Will he take personal responsibility for this shame and personally apologize on behalf of himself? Right Honorable Prime Minister. Mr. Speaker, on behalf of all of us in this House, I would like to present unreserved apologies for what took place on Friday and to President Zelensky and the Ukrainian delegation for the position they were put in. For all of us who were present to have unknowingly recognized this individual was a terrible mistake and a violation of the memory of those who suffered grievously at the hands of the Nazi regime.
Starting point is 00:12:24 Oh, Canada, i love you so so that was that and so uh we have one more go around this is obviously question time they do this in england they do it in canada uh and uh here he comes back up and uh to say to ask you know see if he can clarify a little bit nothing he gets nothing and i could have gone on longer with this but this will be the final clip because it just ends, pretty much ends here with Trudeau apologizing on behalf of everybody, not himself. The Honorable Leader of the Official Opposition. Did the Prime Minister's national security, intelligence, or diplomatic officials vet the names of the people that the Prime Minister allowed within mere feet of President Zelensky.
Starting point is 00:13:14 Ah! The right honourable Prime Minister. What? Mr. Speaker, the privilege and responsibilities and rights of parliamentarians are sacrosanct, and that the Leader of the Opposition would be suggesting that any visitor to this House should be vetted by the government of the day is actually a grievous attack on the rights and privileges of parliamentarians. However, if the leader of the opposition or the speaker or anyone wants our intelligence agencies to vet any of their guests,
Starting point is 00:13:53 we would be more than happy to do that in respect of parliamentary rights. The Honorable Leader of the Official Opposition. Well, there's one thing for sure sure is this distracted from the former indian diplomat who claimed that trudeau's plane at the recent g20 meeting was full of cocaine you've heard about this no i missed that one yeah so it obviously did distract good work oh yeah oh yeah no it totally distracted from that there was one thing that was fun uh one of the canadian liberals from the liberal party uh jumped up and suggested the following i would like to ask for unanimous consent to adopt the following motion that notwithstanding any standing order special order or usual practice of the house the recognition made by the speaker of the house of an
Starting point is 00:14:42 individual present in the galleries during the joint address to Parliament by His Excellency Volodymyr Zelensky. Be struck from the appendix of the House of Commons debates of Thursday, September 21st, 2023 and from any House multimedia recording. So they wanted, they wanted a race. This, by the way, this was semi-scandalous that she did this. Of course it is. That's insane. Oh, we got to delete it. Get rid of it.
Starting point is 00:15:09 Now, what isn't happening, what should happen from this and, you know, the Simon Wiesenthal Center, of course, they were all over Twitter X. You know, like, oh, this is insane. This is no good. I mean, I think that's where your setup was. But they need to go a step further. Where's the Azov brigade? This is the moment this is no good. I mean, I think that's where your setup was. But they need to go a step further. Where's the Azov brigade? This is the moment to bring it in. Hey, there's still a lot of Nazi sentiment over there.
Starting point is 00:15:32 There's people fighting on behalf of the Ukrainian army who have swastikas tattooed on their body and are very much in line with World War II Nazis. Yeah, of course. But why isn't anyone picking that up well slow down the money well money speaking of such what are you trying to do what are you on let's go to 60 minutes and talk about the money the u.s has spent just over 43 billion dollars on military aid to ukraine since russia invaded i think it's more than that isn't it was that maybe just the military aid and this is yeah this is a number that the real number is over a trillion a trillion
Starting point is 00:16:19 a trillion i believe it's i believe it's uh that's new to me i've i've heard 150 billion i've heard but a trillion nah no i think it's what i think yeah with a t tango i'm pretty sure i could be i mean it's not a it's not 1.3 billion it's got to be what no if it's 1.3 anything it's over no no not what point it's 100 and i understand to be 143 billion she's saying 40 something billion a trillion is that's a thousand billion that's a lot that's a lot the number the point is i think the point is it's a fluctuating number that nobody seems to have a handle on the point is every time somebody wants a handle on the number rand paul yeah they say nah we don't know don't worry about it we got we'll have ai check it out don't worry we're going to figure it all out that's equivalent to about
Starting point is 00:17:19 five percent of the american defense budget. European countries combined have contributed around $30 billion. American rocket launchers are now reaching deep into Russian-occupied Ukraine. And the Patriot air defense system is shielding millions of Ukrainian civilians from airstrikes. American taxpayers are financing more than just weapons. We discovered the U.S. government's buying seeds and fertilizer for Ukrainian farmers and covering the salaries of Ukraine's first responders, all 57,000 of them. Russia's invasion shrank Ukraine's economy by about a third. We were surprised to find that to keep it afloat,
Starting point is 00:18:04 the U.S. government is subsidizing small businesses. In total, America's pumped nearly $25 billion of non-military aid into Ukraine's economy since the invasion began. So I consider this to be a hit piece on this whole phony baloney setup that we're paying for it is 60 minutes so that's the cia broadcasting systems if we believe seymour hirsch and i have no reason not to there is an internal conflict or a conflict between cia and the dia defense intelligence agency we talked about in the last show cia is saying everyone's dead there's's no one fighting back. There's no war. It's over. It's effectively over.
Starting point is 00:18:47 DIA, you're going too far. You got your money. You got your 143, whatever it is, billion. Stop. And of course, they're not stopping. So I think this is a hit piece. And that may become more clear in the third clip. Here's two.
Starting point is 00:19:03 And you can see it working at the bustling farmer's market on John McCain Street in central Kiev. Are you starting to get the idea? John McCain Street? Of Ukraine, this is your moment. The late senator is revered in Ukraine because he pushed the U.S. government to start sending arms to the country after Russia first invaded back in 2014. While in Kiev, we learned that three of McCain's former colleagues were also in town. Democratic Senators Elizabeth Warren and Richard Blumenthal and Republican Senator Lindsey Graham. It's a cool takedown because it's taking down the Republicans, Graham. It's a cool takedown because it's taking down the Republicans, which is also correct because these people are evil. They don't normally agree on much. Together, though,
Starting point is 00:19:53 they're some of the staunchest supporters of U.S. funding for Ukraine's resistance. They're on track to break the Russian army. And the only way they could possibly lose is if we pull the plug on them. The wreckage of Russia's war machine was on display for Ukraine's Independence Day celebrations, even as almost a fifth of the country remains under occupation. People ask me, is it worth it? Here's what we've gotten for our investment. We haven't lost one soldier. We reduced the combat power of the Russian army by 50%.
Starting point is 00:20:28 Not one of us has died in that endeavor. This is a great deal for America. When he says not one of us, he's talking about not one of the senators, obviously. You've previously said that it's the best money we've ever spent. That's still true? Since we helped Churchill stand up to the Nazis. ever spent. That's still true? Since we helped Churchill stand up to the Nazis. Duh!
Starting point is 00:20:47 We have to have confidence. By the way, the illogic of all this is just fascinating. Well, people have no knowledge of history who see Canadian Parliament. Besides that, I mean, there's the
Starting point is 00:21:04 illogic of, well, we're running a war but we haven't lost any soldiers so that's great as as people are dying by the hundreds by the thousands but they're ukrainians they don't count you see i mean it's a real it's a very uh patronizing uh kind of a it's sick it's basically sick yes i agree we have to have confidence that the dollars we're spending are actually being spent in defense of the nation all of that is important but that's well we just heard that they're not they're they're not being spent in defense of the nation they're being spent to keep small businesses afloat, all kinds of other stuff. But that's why we're here. The senators and other U.S. officials told us there have been no substantiated cases of American weapons being diverted.
Starting point is 00:21:55 OK, but then CBS 60 Minutes throws this out. But Ukraine is a young democracy with a history of corruption. According to the monitoring group Transparency International, it's ranked the second most corrupt country in Europe. Only Russia scores lower. An American hotline for Ukrainians to report misuse of assistance from USAID saw a tenfold increase when these posters went up across the country earlier this year. American officials are now investigating four criminal cases involving non-military aid. And 170 Ukrainian government officials, including high-ranking military officers, have been charged in corruption cases so far this year for crimes like embezzlement and accepting bribes.
Starting point is 00:22:47 Ukraine is losing US weapons on the battlefield. But Lieutenant Shershon told us that's the only way they're losing them. Has anything gone missing? In my situation, in my company, in our battalion, I don't know the case like this. Yeah, okay. So I think this is the setup. This is a bit of a hit piece.
Starting point is 00:23:09 It's like, no, no, you guys are over there. The Uniparty, this corruption. We're also funding their whole economy, apparently. We can't fund our own economy. This is what gets people riled up. People get mad about this stuff. So it feels to me like CBS, CIA broadcasting. It does have a funny feeling
Starting point is 00:23:32 because that's why the Lindsey Graham thing triggered me because it's like, why would you put that in there in the first place? You bring in, this is a common way of doing it. You bring in a person who acts despicable which is exactly what he did yeah and and present him out hey look at this and then so it gets everybody to despise him because it's like a despicable thing to say what he did what he said and he's all he's already so despisable yeah Yeah, he's very despisable. Despisable.
Starting point is 00:24:07 So then more CBS. You do that. Anyway, the point is you do that on purpose. Yes. Oh, completely. Or as the kids would say, 100%. So now we go to CBS Face the Nation. And let's rile people up a little more. Ukrainian President Zelensky and his wife Olena visited Washington last week
Starting point is 00:24:25 to press the case for more U.S. assistance in Ukraine's fight against the Russian invasion. We spoke with the first lady during their visit with the aid of a Ukrainian government interpreter. We began by asking her about what life is like for Ukrainian children. By the way, I don't think Margaret Brennan, who's the news model in this case, I don't think she's really aware that she's helping the demise of the narrative here. Unfortunately, one third of Ukrainian children can now attend school
Starting point is 00:24:56 because our schools have to be safe, to be located in safe areas. And we need schools with bomb shelters and my foundation continues fundraising well stop again another little tidbit here in terms of the i'm going to go along with your whole thesis uh so if you're going to use these mechanisms to do a hit piece and and then compound it with the Margaret Brennan show. There are a lot of different people that you can have do the translation. Yes.
Starting point is 00:25:37 But to have some sad sack come on with this pathetic voice, you don't need that. You could have an up-tempo, lifting, kind of a positive-spirited person doing the translation and someone who sounds like she's going to start to cry any second. That's done for another, that's also done purposefully. Can we find a translator? Hey Bill, can we find a translator? It sounds so sad. Yeah. And it's, and, and so I think when you air these answers, I think people at home just, Joe, oh, let me say it, six pack, sit at home going, our schools suck.
Starting point is 00:26:15 And she's not wearing, you know, fatigues like Volodomir. You know, she's dressed nicely. She's, you know's she was in vogue this is you know this is shades of uh of dip like the asad woman yeah the asad fiat which they also took down so and like and then it's her foundation what am i what what we're not giving money to your foundation it's one thing to give money to the country to the military i can even kind of see the emergency services but now we got to give to your foundation what is this why it makes no sense the clinton foundation thank you our schools have to be safe to be located in safe areas
Starting point is 00:26:58 and we need schools with bomb shelters. And my foundation continues fundraising resources to ensure that we have comfortable bomb shelters in all Ukrainian schools. Comfortable bomb shelters. We need comfortable bomb shelters. Our kids need to be comfortable. Well, the rest of Ukrainian children, two-thirds, continue going to school online because they live in front-line areas. Many children left Ukraine, they live abroad.
Starting point is 00:27:35 When children were leaving Ukraine... By the way, there's a mistake here that they're making, or it's purposeful. What we kept hearing was the Russians kidnapped tens kidnapped tens of thousands of children the russians kidnapped them now we're hearing something else well there was wait i'll take the side the side of the narrative if you must there was a lot of complaining about the russians kidnapping the kids out of the Donbass and that area. But the other kids, there's still a shitload, probably more kids that like fled to, in the early days, fled to Poland. Poland, Germany.
Starting point is 00:28:14 Yeah. All those places. Yeah. So something's off. I don't think it's inaccurate. Well, something's off about this whole interview. In the frontline areas, many children left ukraine they live abroad that's your front line the front lane areas that's the dombass region many of them live abroad
Starting point is 00:28:31 what happened to the kidnapped by russia narrative it should be in here if if it was an anti-russian they're going to talk about if she's going to drop the front line there's no kids around any of that area. When children were leaving Ukraine sometimes they could only take their documents with them and left everything behind. That is why both children and teachers require laptops, require iPads to continue education. And we receive a lot of support,
Starting point is 00:29:07 including from our American partners. What? Yeah, they need iPads. Nobody needs an iPad. They need iPads. Send your money to my foundation. The kids need iPads. See?
Starting point is 00:29:23 Anyway, Face the Nation then put this in because, you know, the last bit we're sending is the tactical missiles, the ones that have some reach. We go now to Arizona Democratic Senator Mark Kelly. He is in Austin, Texas. Double whammy. This morning, CBS has confirmed that President Biden in his meeting with President Zelensky, said he would provide Ukraine with ATAKOMs. These are these longer-range surface-to-surface missile systems that would allow them to hit behind Russian lines. The Ukrainians have been asking for months for these systems.
Starting point is 00:29:58 Whether it was the F-16s or the ATAKOMs now, are you frustrated at how long it takes for approval to happen for these systems? Yeah, I mean, this conflict's been going on for a year and a half now. And in the beginning, we provided artillery, ammunition, eventually HIMARS. F-16s are not like other weapons systems. They're complicated. You have to train pilots. You have to train maintainers. I worked with the administration on that. We've gotten them cluster weapons now. ATAKMS is an additional capability.
Starting point is 00:30:33 There were some issues we had to work through. They've been stressing the need for this over a period of time now, and we're at the point that we're going to provide them this capability. And I think it's going to be helpful. What restrictions should there be? You know, why the apprehension for so long? Well, an artillery shell goes about 18 miles, an attack missile goes about 190 miles. So there was concern where and against what targets would they use them. We don't want this to escalate, but we're at the spot right now where they need an additional capability to maintain some more progress. The progress on this counteroffensive, it's been good. You know,
Starting point is 00:31:16 I talked to Ukrainian commanders. There are things that are, you know, starting to provide some, you know, problems, but we're making progress there. What does that mean? I think they set him up. All right, you're in charge of that. So whatever happens with those ATAKOMs, it's a cool name, acronym, but ATAKOMs, whatever happens, yeah, some problems, but it's okay. No, no, no, no. Meanwhile, reports that 10,000 Ukrainian soldiers have surrendered to the Russians using the special Volga frequency, which is 149.2 megahertz, which you can basically get on your hands. What are those $25 radios we started off with? You have one in your desk drawer. I have one. I have a couple of them laying around.
Starting point is 00:32:07 What's the cheapo called again? The name. Bi-Fan, I think. Bi-Fang. Bao-Fang. They're Chinese. They're cheap Chinese gear. And they're good.
Starting point is 00:32:19 Yeah, Bao-Fang. Yeah. Bao-Fang. And the batteries last forever. I don't know how that works yeah so now they have a frequency 149.2 megahertz you just call and say hey we want to surrender it's over probably using that particular gear of course of course no i i'm i'm with hirsch i really think that it's so it may go on forever but only as a demilitarized zone and just a bunch of posturing and you know no real fighting i just
Starting point is 00:32:56 don't think there's fighting going on it doesn't i mean have you seen any recent footage of fighting and wins or losses or anything no we're not seeing that anymore i didn't see much fighting to begin with no well no we never really well i mean on my my military contact i i have i must have 50 videos of abams tanks, all these tanks getting blown up. It's just sitting ducks, drone footage of Abrams tanks getting, you know, droned. I mean, none of this seems to have worked very well. At all. So, and of course, this report, which we didn't, I had it, but I have a semi-clip from the American Journal.
Starting point is 00:33:47 It's a poor read, but at least we can laugh about it. Zelensky asks Marina Abramovich to be ambassador for Ukraine. Now, apparently this story was removed from the Telegraph, but that's where it was originally posted. They've since scrubbed the Internet of it. We've had to go to uh way back machine version the archive to get it here volodymyr zelensky has asked marina abramovich the quote performance artist to be an ambassador for ukraine miss abramovich a fierce critic of vladimir putin's illegal invasion said the ukrainian president had asked her for help in rebuilding schools oh rebuilding schools so marina abramovich um and who herself has claimed that uh zelensky
Starting point is 00:34:34 wants her to be an ambassador to the children not like an official ambassador which i think this guy gets wrong um and most people immediately associate her with the spirit cooking and the ah yes the blood stuff yes i have not i have not straightened out this story i mean i've seen references to it but i'm glad you you picked up on it and you could just yes that's right that's who that is the spirit cooking woman where you throw a a bunch of dead uh guts on the wall or something well well when you eat it what's interesting about her and and i want to remind everybody she ties back directly to the podesta clan no did that she ties totally yes that's where it came from and and the clintons yeah so this cannot be coincidental or you know she it seems totally like her huge ego
Starting point is 00:35:28 like yeah i'm a part of this hey guys let me in on the scam something sketchy about her yeah even being mentioned whether this is any of this is even true it could all be a setup i like i'm, you know, that transgender guy dude. Who got fired. Who got fired. I didn't never, I never believed that she ever worked there. He. Ever.
Starting point is 00:35:53 No. Ever, whatever. Yeah. No, I don't either. No. This whole thing seems like bull crap from the get-go. Yeah. So I can take us from there, unless you have anything else on Ukraine.
Starting point is 00:36:06 I think we've handled it for today. I can take us to what's going on with migration around the world. I do have one little thing I wanted to get out of the way on Ukraine. Sure. And this is mostly about the Russians. And you have to do a search, because it's from two or three shows ago, And you have to do a search because it's from two or three shows ago on on the Cubans, supposedly that the Russians are kidnapping and forcing into soldierdom to fight in the war. Have you heard this one?
Starting point is 00:36:40 No, and I'm trying to find it would be under Cuban. It'd be Cuban. Oh, goodness. You have like a whole bunch of clips here. oh no i see here we go here we go cuban authorities have uncovered an international human trafficking ring the victims are being sent overseas to fight for russia in the war against ukraine that's according to a statement by cuban authorities released on monday cuba's foreign ministry said cuba is not part of the war in uk and Cuba will act against human trafficking aimed at recruiting Cubans as mercenaries. Cuban state-run media
Starting point is 00:37:11 added this. The interior ministry detected and is working on the neutralization and dismantling of a human trafficking network. Cuba said it had already begun prosecuting cases in which its citizens had been coerced into fighting in Ukraine. A Cuban resident gave his take on the matter. Cuba is against all illegal human trafficking. People said it was to send them to war in Ukraine. The Cuban revolution is against that. And if true, this could mean Russia is having trouble recruiting people from its own citizens.
Starting point is 00:37:43 But why Cuba? Russia has long-standing political ties with communist Cuba, and Cuban citizens often migrate to Russia for economic opportunities. Russia is also looking elsewhere for help in its war against Ukraine. On Monday, U.S. National Security Council spokesperson Adrian Watson said North Korea leader Kim Jong-un and Russian President Vladimir Putin could be planning to meet. Clearly, Russia running short of our ammunition right now and having to go to North Korea. Patricia Lewis, the head of the international security program at the think tank Chatham House, explained that North Korea may want more than just currency. Obviously, it would like real high-tech missile technology, etc.
Starting point is 00:38:29 It may also want a show of strength with Russia, such as military exercises, naval exercises, and so on. That may be part of the discussions. All of these people, all of these think tanks, these NGOs, they're all in on the game. They're all getting paid for participating in this play. What do you think the significance of this was that you bring this up? There's something very phony about it. To incorporate the North Korea, Putin, Kim meeting, that sort of thing, that always seemed like bull crap. And the fact that they, oh, we have to go to North Korea for high-tech weaponry.
Starting point is 00:39:09 What? Right, right. This is like, does this make sense to anyone with a normal brain? It's the same, well, it's the same type of misinformation, disinformation that the CIA brought in with MI6, I'm sure. Well, MI6 is Chatham House. Yeah, that Putin was suffering from cancer, Parkinson's. He's almost dead.
Starting point is 00:39:28 He's going to keel over. It's a big list. Yeah, what happened to that, American news media? What happened to that? Oh, look at his head. It's all puffy because he's taking cancer meds. He's going to die. No.
Starting point is 00:39:40 So this seemed to be part of the narrative that, oh, Russia's hard up for getting people. They're all leaving the country, and nobody wants to fight for Putin. And so he's got to involve himself with the word human trafficking. This is key. This is key. It's to make you look bad, obviously. And Cubans, you know, these dumb Cubans, I guess.
Starting point is 00:40:02 I don't know how they got wrapped up in it. There is a bunch of men living in russia that shows if you move to russia you're going to get you know uh grabbed and thrown in the army rousted yes rousted i mean this this is unbelievable how how extreme this this storyline you have a kicker here 14 second second kicker. Yes, what it is. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan on Tuesday said that it says a lot that Russia is trying to obtain weapons from North Korea in September 2023, especially for a war that Russia said would be over quite a problem. But it's such dubious problem. Does anybody believe that Russia, you know, who just came short of going to the moon and still is the Soyuz spacecraft? The only way we can get to our own space station is using this Russian device. They said once in a while SpaceX can send somebody up. That they have to go to North Korea, the crazy North Korea, to get weapons.
Starting point is 00:41:09 Come on. It's crazy to even think that, but they're pushing it. That means they're desperate. Yeah, the desperation is in Jake Sullivan's side of the equation. Oh, man. I didn't clip it, but Anthony Blinken was at some White House function, and he plays blues guitar on stage, does a blues song. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:41:35 Yeah. He's like, and it's not bad. I'll give him that. Well, I'm sure a lot of people can play blues guitar. Yeah. I got below the mirror some more bullets. Boy, he's shooting them all. Putin ain't looking so good no more.
Starting point is 00:41:54 Yeah. So the human trafficking angle is being used, overused around the world. human trafficking angle is being used overused around the world and a paper surfaced a paper from 2000 from the united nations and it kind of even the what is the big the big um conspiracy theory that tucker carlson everybody in europe uh you know, Jews will not replace us. Do you know what this is called, right? The replacement theory? Yeah, the one where Merkel got an award for being... That's the Kalege Award.
Starting point is 00:42:38 But the replacement theory has been called anti-Semitic. You're horrible. You know, this is not true, it's all conspiracy theory. Well, this paper is titled, Replacement Migration. Is it a solution to declining and aging populations? And it's a very extensive paper from the United Nations from 2001. And I'll just give you the executive summary. I'll just read this. Yeah. Because they go through all of this. The new challenges being brought about by
Starting point is 00:43:11 declining and aging populations will require objective, thorough, and comprehensive reassessments of many established economic, social, and political policies and programs. Such reassessments will need to incorporate a long-term perspective. Critical issues to be programs. Such reassessments will need to incorporate a long-term perspective. Critical issues to be addressed in those reassessments would include A. The appropriate ages for retirement. Remember, this is from 2001. What have we seen in Europe? Retirement ages being moved. B. The levels, types, and nature of retirement and healthcare benefits for the elderly. France, hello? What were they complaining about?
Starting point is 00:43:54 Healthcare benefits, UK healthcare benefits, national healthcare system. C, the labor force participation, which is low right now. Labor participation is low. That's why there's low unemployment, but it doesn't mean that there's not people who are out of work they've just given up and d the assessed amounts of contributions from workers and employers to support retirement and health care benefits for the increasingly elder population always a big discussion in our own country and e policies and programs relating to the international migration, in particular replacement migration and the integration of large numbers of recent migrants and their descendants. They are executing a plan globally. It's global. It's here. It's all over Europe. And they have no intention of stopping it whatsoever.
Starting point is 00:44:46 This is way above Biden and above Macron. This is your great reset from the United Nations. This is why you have the UMA, the United Nations Migration Agency, who are busing people from South America, giving them cell phones down there, giving them credit debit cards. Yeah, what we see is, oh, it's the beast train. Bull crap. This is purposeful, and it goes right back to the former New York banker. America wins because our population is growing.
Starting point is 00:45:19 But it's not growing because we're making children. It's growing because we have open borders. Yep. Well, that brings us to Greg Abbott in Texas. Okay. I knew this is one of those shows where we integrate. I will hit. But he goes to New York of all places. What is Greg Abbott doing in New York? Let's find out.
Starting point is 00:45:38 I'm here in New York City right outside of Roosevelt Hotel. It's been the city's intake center for immigrants. And while I was standing here, a man from Senegal approached me and asked me where he needed to go. So we talked to some workers right outside of this entrance, and they pointed the man in this direction to an entrance over here. New York City continues to deal with this immigration crisis, and Governor Abbott says that's just a fraction of what Texas sees on a daily basis. We have in any one particular location thousands of people crossing the border in a mad rush type of way. Texas Governor Greg Abbott was in New York City on Wednesday.
Starting point is 00:46:18 He spoke at the Manhattan Institute about the nation's border crisis. And he shared some surprising numbers regarding the illegal immigrants currently in New York City. How many migrants do you have here? 120,000, something like that? Texas has bused 15,800 to New York. Where do these other people come from? The Biden administration. Yeah, see, and Abbott's in on it.'re all in on it he knows that this is a global movement this is not just the biden administration goes way above that but okay it's his job he's playing he's going to new york get on broadway come on greg it's what you do if you're a republican yeah you blame the democrats of course of. It's what you do. Yeah. Abbott explained that Texas has deployed the National Guard and the Texas Department of Public Safety to help deal with the crisis.
Starting point is 00:47:11 And the National Guard has been setting up miles of razor wire along the U.S.-Mexico border. The Biden administration had their border patrol go in and cut that razor wire that we put up, pull it open. And there was an onrush of thousands of illegal immigrants pouring into the country. Abbott also said Texas is now building border barriers between Texas and New Mexico to stop illegal immigrants from crossing into El Paso. Never forget, it was just three years ago, we had the lowest number of border crossings in 40 years. It's kind of hard for people to understand or remember,
Starting point is 00:47:55 but it proves this, and that is the president of the United States can have an outsized impact on illegal immigration across the border. And last week, over 8,600 people crossed the U.S.-Mexico border in a 24-hour period, according to an official from the Department of Homeland Security. That's up from about 3,500 per day after Title 42 ended in May. And Abbott said the solution is for the Biden team to just follow the laws already in place. Not have to pass new laws. Enforce the current laws on the books.
Starting point is 00:48:39 Until that time comes, Texas is going to continue to use every tool that we can to secure the border the best that we can. Yeah, it's bullcrap. They're not securing anything. They're not. They're just not. They're in Fredericksburg. It's rampant now. It's rampant. There's no stopping anybody. They're doing exactly what they're told to do. speaking up, speaking out against their commanding officers. It's unintelligible. It's really not usable for the show, even with the Adobe product.
Starting point is 00:49:12 But they're starting to go, hey, hold on a second. This is not, we're not abiding to our task, our constitutional duty. The point that made about the laws brings up two things. I don't have any clips from the debates because it's a waste of time. But anybody who brings up the idea of immigration reform is part of the scam. Yes. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:49:41 Because the fact is, what Abbott said, whether he meant to say it or not, he's right. If you enforce the laws we already have, and this applies to everything from shoplifting to immigration and everything in between, you don't have a problem. It's just law enforcement. The issue is law enforcement itself. But if you start talking about, oh, we need immigration reform. No, we don't. That's a lie. And anyone who says that Nikki Haley being the top on that list. Oh, my goodness. I'm so disappointed in her. She is just the worst. She is the worst. Horrible. Let's go to CBS Face the Nation.
Starting point is 00:50:23 Margaret Brennan talking to a Texas representative. We turn now to Texas Republican Congressman Tony Gonzalez, who joins us from San Antonio this morning. San Antonio, by the way. Riverwalk. Have you ever been to San Antonio? You ever been to the Riverwalk? Oh, yeah. Well, you can't go there anymore.
Starting point is 00:50:40 Why not? It's just filled with people sleeping. Migrants. It's so cozy next to the river and the fireflies and the lighting and the songs and the sombreros. No, it's not. It's not sombreros. It's not Mexicans. It's not.
Starting point is 00:50:59 It's from all over the world. They're just being dumped on the buses. Boom. Dump them right there. And then off you go. This morning, Congressman, a lot to get to with you. Well, if there is a shutdown, are the Border Patrol agents in your district prepared to show up to work? See, this isn't the next talking point. Oh, more scripts. At a time of migrant spike and not get paid. You know, that's the
Starting point is 00:51:22 ugly part of a shutdown is you're going to have you're going to have real people get hurt. But right now, Border Patrol agents are showing up to operate in processing centers. They're not out in the field, so they're not really doing their jobs and they haven't been doing their jobs. And many, many agents have told me, you know what, Tony, right now, I mean, give you example in El Paso, the facility, 200 Border Patrol agents are in that soft sided facility taking care of migrants, meaning they're not out in the field protecting America from bad actors. So in many cases, they might as well already be shut down. Yes, you could hear even go. What do you mean?
Starting point is 00:51:57 That's their job. We mean, they're not doing their job. That is their job. Who is preventing that? The problem is, is Joe Biden's failed immigration policies. We see the images, we hear the stories, but we never hear solutions. Let's, let's talk some solutions. Uh, one of those is I've been pushing very hard and many of my colleagues to end catch and release. I have an amendment in that Homeland bill that ends catch and release. Another one is
Starting point is 00:52:22 once again, the border patrol agents, they're, they're out of the game. The folks that are doing the real work are the sheriffs and the deputies. And there's a program called Stone Garden, and there's a $10 million upgrade for that. This helps with manpower and equipment to help fight the border crisis. But the third piece, which I'd argue is the most important, is repatriation flights. And when I met with Secretary Mayorkas earlier this week, that's what I asked him for, repatriation flights. Meaning, if somebody does not qualify for asylum, you don't bus them to New York, you don't send them to LA, you don't let them go other places, you send them back to their country of origin. The thing that's wrong with this guy is you don't need this. It's not an issue of law. is you don't need this. It's not an issue of law. That's the thing. It's like you're just flailing in the wind. It's a matter of will the agencies do their job? There's nothing to do
Starting point is 00:53:15 with what's in the law. This is all and it's all just political. Oh, it's the Biden administration, of course. CNN's take. Well, this morning, there's a new agreement between Mexico and the U.S. to deport migrants at border cities back home to their countries. It's part of an effort to fight the massive surge in illegal crossings in recent weeks. Mexican officials have also agreed to prevent migrants from using railways to reach the border. Now, this agreement comes as Texas border towns are feeling the weight of the crisis with the mayor of El Paso saying the city is at its breaking point. CNN's Rosa Flores joins us live from Houston. Rosa, I was reading your reporting throughout the course of the weekend.
Starting point is 00:53:50 There is a ton to unpack here, but what's the significance of this agreement? You know, Phil, this is really significant because it could be the difference between the U.S. seeing another surge on the southern border and not. See, what Mexican officials here are saying is that they are going to, quote, depressurize their northern Mexican border cities by deporting migrants back to their home countries, which in essence means Mexico would be rerouting the flow of migration before migrants actually get to the U.S. southern border. U.S. Representative Henry Quayer over the weekend applauded this move, saying that this is a strategy that has worked in the past under Presidents Obama and President Trump. But it's notable to add that advocacy organizations,
Starting point is 00:54:32 immigration advocates and human rights organizations have in the past condemned this type of strategy. See, this is where they bring in the human trafficking and there's all kinds of horrific stories. Oh, human trafficking, human trafficking. And of course, it's horrible. These people are being told and being given a license to travel to the United States and they're being told, don't worry about it.
Starting point is 00:54:53 When you get there, yeah, maybe you have to wait for them to cut the razor wire, but you come in, it'll be all fine. You get to stay at the Roosevelt Hotel. This is, it is the replacement migration. It is underway. There's big money behind it.
Starting point is 00:55:08 And yeah, yes. It has to be some way. It has to, the whole thing has to be globalist because if you remember, and we'll go back 15 years when we started doing this show, almost 16 years now. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:23 Wow. There was discussions. I think it was during the during our show era it may have been before but i very distinctly remember it about how we relax at the mexican border but the mexicans on the guatemala border if you tried to cross into mexico they shoot you they shoot you they beat you you to death. They'd shoot you. They'd shoot you. They'd beat you. You couldn't get into Mexico. It was impossible because the Mexicans were so mean about anyone trying to enter their country.
Starting point is 00:55:54 Now, how, all of a sudden, the Sangalese and Venezuelans and everyone else is plowing through Mexico like there's no barrier to Mexico at all. What happened to the barrier? North Africans. Africans. Yeah. How does that work? Because the United Nations Migrant Agency is shipping them.
Starting point is 00:56:15 They're shipping them all over the world. They're facilitating it. And anybody who is, we're just being distracted with, he said, she said, Biden, whatever. Oh, stop shipping your people to New York. Build a wall. Well, it's a little late for that now. But it's the money. It's big money.
Starting point is 00:56:37 And it is, and they're not shy about it. This white paper, which is in the show notes, have a read. And it's in multiple languages in good un fashion and it's intended for the entire world to see and and to act upon and it's it's too late although chicago is starting to wake up a little bit could chicago reverse course on its pledge to be a sanctuary city? Some aldermen are ready to leave it up to the voters after another weekend of bus arrivals from the border. Anthony Ponce is live with more. Anthony. And Donna and Scott, the migrant crisis shows no
Starting point is 00:57:17 signs of slowing down. As of this morning, roughly 9,000 migrants are being housed in shelters across the city, with another 2,000 camped out in places like this. We're outside of District 19. Police headquarters are also camped out at airports. And now, with no end in sight, there's a new effort underway to let voters, taxpayers themselves, decide whether Chicago should remain a sanctuary city. Nobody has ever asked the voters, the people who actually pay taxes and vote here in the city of Chicago, if they want to remain a sanctuary city. Ninth Ward Alderman Anthony Beal wants to change that with migrants continuing to arrive to Chicago by the busload. Let's let the people decide. Let's not be afraid of putting something on the ballot.
Starting point is 00:58:03 He's talking about the March primary ballot. march primary ballot that's after half of these people were frozen to death in the winter base camp i want chicago some uh winter that that'll cure people he wants to include the question should chicago keep its sanctuary city designation the influx of migrants is expected to cost Chicago taxpayers $255 million by the end of this year. They're always throwing out the money. Oh, it's going to cost us so much. No, it's going to cost you your job, your life, everything. You all have to remember, only a certain fraction of the country are dealing with this. These are democratic cities and democratic states are the only ones that did. We are not
Starting point is 00:58:45 sharing the wealth across the country. Other cities and other states are not dealing with these problems. In order for the referendum to appear on the March ballot, it would. Oh, no, this is the beauty of like, hey, I think he says they're not sharing the wealth, which is even funnier. Listen again. Cities and democratic states are the only ones
Starting point is 00:59:01 that did. We are not sharing the wealth across the country. The wealth? Why is he saying the wealth, the wealth of illegal immigrants, asylum seekers, job seekers, the wealth you want to share? That's a great catch. That's and he also says only Democrat cities in dollars by the end of this year. You all have to remember, only a certain fraction of the country are dealing with this. These are democratic cities and democratic states are the only ones. We are not sharing the wealth across the country. Other cities and other states are not dealing with these problems. They need some wealth. Send them some wealth. In order for the referendum to appear on the March ballot, it would need a majority vote from the Chicago City Council. I definitely think that's something that should be up for discussion,
Starting point is 00:59:47 regardless of whether you're pro or against it. I don't think it's that important compared to a lot of the other issues that we are facing in Chicago. Oh, really? And right now, Chicago is under what is called a welcoming city ordinance, which means that people don't inquire as to any immigrants status. And also police officers do not cooperate with ICE agents. Now, that's interesting because they're saying police officers are not cooperating with ICE agents, making it look like ICE is trying to do something. But the cops, man, they're in the welcoming city of Chicago.
Starting point is 01:00:23 They're not helping out. Well, boots on the ground adam and john thought you might find my recent experience trying to get help from ice homeland security interesting here's some background i've been a police officer in a small northwest ohio town for 25 years we're rural and are surrounded by a lot of farmland we see a lot of migrant workers but recently we've seen a large uptick in illegal immigrants so much so that i got a call from a trailer park owner the trailer park is owned by a management company out of florida the florida manager reported that they believe there may be possible human trafficking of illegal immigrants at two of their lots so then he goes on and you know what he observed uh you
Starting point is 01:01:01 know people being shuttled being fed in one trailer more people coming in those people going never seeing them again and he says what is interesting uh is that the registered tenant for one of those trailers doesn't actually live there that person is running a check cashing business out of another resident so it's a whole the scam is on all different levels oh yeah this type of investigation is not something we're equipped to deal with. So I called for help. I called the national hotline of ICE, ERO, enforcement and removal operations and received a message that all lines were busy. All lines are busy. Please call back later. I tried two more times on different dates, received the same message. In addition, I also called the local office out detroit three times and was sent to voicemail i have yet to receive a call back getting work visas for all the immigrants in new york city must be a bigger priority so ice is not cooperating don't blame the cops don't blame the cops ice is not cooperating that's what's happening here the whole thing is just to complete well i want to play this clip and then i have a point
Starting point is 01:02:06 to make okay i do have some europe stuff to do so make sure we come back to migrants national parks and new tang dynasty clip this migrants uh they want to move them to the national parks now yeah and the biden administration's plan to house illegal immigrants on federal lands and in national parks is under scrutiny i gotta stop this for a second so you know a big story is which i think was picked up by the daily wire some guy flew his plane over this land in texas and you know it's a development and the development is it's pretty big and they to have, I don't know, 20,000 people living in this development. And the story goes like this. Illegal immigrants are getting loans without checking where they are.
Starting point is 01:02:53 They're putting flags of different countries. They're raising them up over all this development. It's all horrible. It's all in Texas. It's no good. And all anyone has is this aerial footage of some trailers, you know, it's like,
Starting point is 01:03:09 and so everyone's up in arms about this, this development with this guy apparently is giving out, you know, loans that are not, you know, you get a loan without any collateral, you know, human trafficking,
Starting point is 01:03:23 but there's no, no pictures from on the ground, even though supposedly there's flags of foreign nations being hoisted over these trailers. That's what everyone's mad about. But we have to go to New Tang Dynasty to find out that the Biden administration wants to put them in our national parks.
Starting point is 01:03:43 Where's the outrage? Nowhere. Nobody gets outraged by new tang dynasty a house committee held a hearing today examining the proposal the housing committee on natural resources held a hearing wednesday on the biden administration's use of national park service lands to house illegal immigrants earlier this month the biden administration agreed to lease Floyd Bennett Field to New York City. The site is part of the Gateway National Recreation Area and will temporarily house 2,500 of the immigrants. The endless flow of illegal immigrants over our southern border is not only destroying individual cities and states, it's destroying our country.
Starting point is 01:04:23 Now the Biden administration is looking to spread this chaos to one of america's greatest ideas our national parks i didn't i didn't either i didn't watch the the debate last night either but i'm sure that it was all about the biden administration as the borders open the biden administration this the biden administration that it's all theater they don't care they don't they have no solutions they know it's a plan that it's both it's way above their pay well if you find that doc a major document from 2000 everyone's seen it oh definitely yeah when announcing the biden administration's decision new y York City Mayor Eric Adams said his own administration has, quote, been forced to unsustainably open new site after new site as asylum seekers continue to arrive by the thousands.
Starting point is 01:05:14 Democratic New York State Assembly member Jamie Williams, whose district includes Floyd Bennett Field, said she has grave concerns over the proposal. She emphasized that the site has no infrastructure, no plumbing, no electricity, and no sewage system. Floyd Bennett Field in National Park is a treasure of natural beauty and biodiversity. Housing individuals here is equivalent to tarnishing the sanctity of Yellowstone National Park. The irreversible damage of flora and fauna and the destruction of our natural beauty are contrary to the ethos of conservation and preservation that national parks symbolize. Kenneth Spencer, chairman of the U.S. Park Police Fraternal Force of Police, expressed concerns over the agency's readiness to protect the public and the immigrants themselves. Let me be perfectly clear.
Starting point is 01:06:03 Even without the migrant shelter on Floyd Bennett Field, we are at least 300 officers short of our required minimum level. Our capacity to serve and protect the public today is literally bursting at the seams. all these different scenarios in it with different projections. And they go all the way through 2050 in this document. And, you know, what will we need? You know, what are we going to need? What are we going to need for Europe and Italy and Europe and the European Unions? From 2001, the European Union just started as the EU. It didn't even have the euro at that point, I don't think.
Starting point is 01:06:47 Scenario. No, they had the monetary unit i don't think the euro happened till 2003 i mean let's take a look we can we can check our own facts yes you check that and i'll read this the medium variant so scenario one the medium variant of projections from the united nations world population prospects 1998 revision scenario two the medium variant of the 1998 1998 revision amended by assuming zero migration after 1995 this scenario three this scenario computes and assumes the migration required to maintain the size of the total population at the highest level it would reach in the absence of migration after 1995 so they they have figured out exactly how much needs to go where and they have by millions germany needs 10.2 million um the united states 38 million all of europe 18 million
Starting point is 01:07:40 european union 13.4 million that's the the total number. Then they have, I mean, they've plotted this whole thing out. The whole thing. Although fertility may rebound in the coming decades, few believe that fertility... I don't see any... Listen to this. No evidence of that. Few believe that fertility in most developed countries
Starting point is 01:08:00 will recover sufficiently to reach replacement level in the foreseeable future, thus making population decline inevitable in the absence of replacement migration it's a foregone conclusion for france united kingdom and united states and the european union the numbers of migrants needed to offset population decline are less than or comparable to recent past experience while this is also the case for germany and the russian federation the migration flows in 1990s relatively large due to reunification and disillusion respectively they have it all figured out yeah just like good socialists do thank you so germany is also starting to you know like what
Starting point is 01:08:38 what's going on dozens of asylum hopefuls queue up outside a registration center in berlin asylum hopefuls now this is berlin this is berlin this this is not uh is berlin on the border no it's anywhere but the border i think it's on the border dozens of asylum hopefuls exactly queue up outside a registration center in berlin many have made long arduous journeys to get here. But with most asylum centers already at maximum capacity, they're facing more hurdles. The capacities within our more than 100 buildings for refugees are coming to an end. At the moment, we have about 200 places that could be offered to asylum seekers. So we're full. Germany's full.
Starting point is 01:09:26 Berlin's full. In Germany, asylum applications are up nearly 80% compared to 2022. 10,000 people have applied this year in Berlin alone, forcing authorities to open former airports, hardware stores, and churches. Well, yeah. Throw them in the churches and the hardware.
Starting point is 01:09:43 Hey, Ace. Ace Hardware. Ace is the place. Ace is the friendly face. Ace is the place for the helpful immigrant folks. There you go. To accommodate the growing number of requests. Now we have the dilemma that too
Starting point is 01:09:55 little capacity is available and until the new ones are created, of course, cruel and terrible pictures rise of gyms being occupied and full accommodations. The flood of refugees will not go away because the world is not getting more peaceful. It's a fact the German government is well aware of. On Wednesday, the Interior Ministry announced increased border policing in an attempt to discourage smugglers.
Starting point is 01:10:27 We must stop the cruel business of the traffickers because they put human lives at risk for maximum profit. That is why the federal police are now carrying out additional checks on the smuggling routes at the borders with Poland and the Czech Republic. But as strife continues to rage in many parts of the world, more proactive policies will be needed to ensure refugees a dignified life once they inevitably do arrive. You know what you never hear? You never hear, hey, we arrested a human trafficking ring. You don't hear that. These guys, the ones going to Europe on the boats, pick those guys up. The guy steering the boat.
Starting point is 01:11:08 No, no, never hear that greece has um has decided they're going to tap into the in undocumented migrants to curb the labor squeeze who knew who knew there was no one left in greece no one in greece can work those greeks are creative and you know what they're going to build the metro and the airport nice yes yeah and the german minister, she wants voting rights for refugees. Oh, this is the next one. Yeah, they should be able to vote. Of course. Makes nothing but sense. Italy.
Starting point is 01:11:36 Yes. I just want to tell you the Euro, January 1, 1999. Very easy to remember. That's the first Euro that came into existence. I don't think the Netherlands switched then, 1999. Very easy to remember. That's the first Euro that came into existence. I don't think the Netherlands switched then, though. I thought the Netherlands switched much later. They didn't all switch at once, but January 1, 1999,
Starting point is 01:11:53 the Euro came into existence. It was the European Monetary Unit. No, no, that was years earlier. This is when an actual Euro showed up. Right, but what country did it show up in? Well, now you're asking me more questions because i remember the netherlands i was there at the time and it was after 2000 but i think it was after 2001 and the gilder became uh the euro and everyone
Starting point is 01:12:16 was like hey my coffee just doubled in price how did that happen well it really screwed the italians got the biggest screw job from it well speaking, speaking of the Italians, they're mad. Notes and, okay. The currency was formally virtual in 1999. Notes and coins began to circulate in 2002. There you go. So they were already planning this for the European Union before the Euro was in circulation.
Starting point is 01:12:41 Italy is mad now because the Germans, supposedly, are German NGOs. This is mad now because the Germans supposedly are German NGOs. This is the big one. The NGOs everywhere are doing this. This is how the money flows. The human traffickers, I'm going to say they're just NGOs. That's why no one ever gets arrested.
Starting point is 01:12:59 They're an NGO, man. There's evidence for that. If you recall in Texas during the Trump administration, they were finding these NGOs, Catholics, a lot of them. Yes. Oh, in Austin. Yeah. They were moving migrants all over the place.
Starting point is 01:13:15 A billion dollars a year they were making. Yeah, they were making, yes, they were making money. A billion dollars. So Italy, you know, Lampedusa, it's full. There's more migrants now than live on the island of Lampedusa, but that's okay, we've got a plan. Italy has set up its first center for asylum seekers
Starting point is 01:13:34 deemed to have come from so-called safe countries. Oh, they're from safe countries, don't worry, these aren't the raping kind, don't worry about it. The Italian government hopes the facility in the Sicilian port of Pizzallo will accelerate the process of asylum claims. It will house people who can't claim refugee status as they've arrived from countries not considered to be dangerous. It comes as Italy struggles to cope with severe overcrowding at its migrant center on Lampedusa Island.
Starting point is 01:14:04 Authorities have begun moving some to other locations after a recent surge in arrivals. The extent of the problem was highlighted earlier this month when some migrants broke out of the centre because of a lack of space and essential provisions. In an effort to reduce numbers arriving, Prime Minister Giorgio Maloney's cabinet is implementing measures against young adults posing as unaccompanied minors in order to claim state protection
Starting point is 01:14:30 it's okay these are they're safe safe asylum seekers don't worry about it these are the safe kind not the kind that are raping and pillaging and blowing up cars in sweden not the kind that are beating up gay lesbian two-spirit whatever trans in the netherlands no it's not the kind that are beating up gay, lesbian, two-spirit, whatever, trans in the Netherlands. No, it's not that kind. It's not that kind. No, no, no. It's all safe. Don't worry about it. And the only country, well, there's two, but the only country that is standing up and saying, hey, you leftists, you morons, it's all your own fault is poland don't leave hungary out of the picture i said there's two i said there's two but i don't have a clip of a hungarian member of european parliament i only have a clip of the polish member of european parliament dominique tarzinski thank Thank you, Mr. President. Dear leftists. I love that. Hey, dear leftists. Hello. Hello, leftists. How are you doing?
Starting point is 01:15:30 Thank you, Mr. President. Dear leftists. I'm very happy to take part in this debate about democracy in Europe. So let me give you some example of very major democracy in Poland. Over a thousand years of tradition of Polish nation. Polish nation rejected you, dear leftists, eight times. Eight times in a row you have lost elections in Poland. So get used to it, because you're going to lose again.
Starting point is 01:16:03 That's number one. Let me give you some data about Poland and Polish democracy. The lowest unemployment in European Union is Poland. The highest GDP after COVID in European Union is Poland. One of the lowest debts of the lowest debts in European Union is Poland. So don't give us this rubbish about the need of educated immigration, as we heard yesterday. We don't need your doctors. We don't need your engineers. Take them, take them all and pay for them. We don't need them. You know why? Because there is a zero terrorist attacks in Poland. Why? Because, because there is no illegal migration in Poland. So don't give me this look. Don't give me this arguments about the populism because this is a fact.
Starting point is 01:16:57 This is your data from Eurostat. So we don't need your engineers. We don't need your doctors. Take them. Do not teach us about democracy, because we know what a democracy is. So learn from Poland. Be like Poland. Thank you very much. Be like Poland. Exactly. We don't have any of those problems.
Starting point is 01:17:24 Why? We're not letting them in which will be a very big problem for poland well they also have they maintain their population they have a yes high fertility they uh they don't they don't uh um go lax they don't slack off no which brings me to the point of what are you going to do with all these people because obviously, I think you're right, there's nothing to stop this because it's a scam. Shantytowns,
Starting point is 01:17:53 I'm telling you, people are going to have to get used to this idea instead of putting them up here and there is to give them a huge area and let them, there's people coming in from all over the place that are very skilled workers in terms of carpentry yeah the shantytowns are gonna have anymore blacksmiths
Starting point is 01:18:14 plumbers people who have skills that we don't want anymore whether we have or not is the the point that i'm making is that to deal with all this influx is you're going to have to let them take care of themselves. And shantytowns, favelas, as you would have it in Brazil, do work. You know where this is going to happen first? The shanty towns alberta alberta listen to this why alberta migrants are driving a population surge and alberta is the fastest growing province 98 of canada's population growth over the last year came from international migration let that sink in from international migration. Let that sink in.
Starting point is 01:19:05 I love saying that. Let that sink in. Let that sink in. Think about it. Think about it. Soak in that for a moment. Madge, 98% of Canada's population. I don't want to burst your bubble.
Starting point is 01:19:15 Canada's population growth came from international migration because Canadians, I mean, Americans are nice. We're nice guys. Canadians, you're so much nicer. And you're being taken advantage of. The surge in international migration is driving Canada's population growth rate to its heights not seen in almost 70 years. And Alberta is now growing faster than any province has seen since records began, like climate change. Wow.
Starting point is 01:19:47 This is news to me. This is a good one. The growth rate is the highest recorded in Canada since a 12-month period in 1957, when it hit 3.3% annually during the height of the baby boom and the Hungarian refugee crisis. Close to 98% of that population growth can be attributed to net migration. The number of non-permanent residents has jumped 46%, mostly due to an increase in work and study permits. So you're letting them in.
Starting point is 01:20:15 They just let them in in a different way. Yeah. Yeah. So this, I mean, I, you know, people either have to stand up and say no. Which they're not doing.
Starting point is 01:20:33 No one's doing it because we're all so nice and we've been told, oh, there's human trafficking. There was some Republican lady who went down to the border. Like, oh, horrible story about women getting raped. Yes, of course it's horrible. But that's not the problem. We need to stop it all. Stop. Everyone needs to stop it, but you can't.
Starting point is 01:20:56 You can't because it's an international movement that's controlled by everybody that's all in on it. Banks, banks, the former New York banker. We win, and lawmakers have no incentive to stop it because they get to spend money when there's more people. They love it. They're writing laws. We're doing more laws. We've got some more stuff. We have to set up camps, favelas.
Starting point is 01:21:20 Where should we have the favelas in America? I mean, they work. I'm with you on that. Where do we set them up? Do we do that in the national parks no you can't do that that that's the that's the reason that national park story showed up is to is to and that will continue to show up as a oh my god they're going to wreck our parks and you know we have all these uh tree huggers that are part of this culture that won't put up with it so you're going to have to find in brazil the irony of brazil i've first time i've been there you've been there so you can talk about it yeah but the irony of brazil
Starting point is 01:21:52 was just pointed out to me almost immediately because the brazilians like to point it out is that the best views and the best property that would be worth a fortune is where the favelas are especially in rio there's one hill in rio that is all favelas it's just a slum it's a slum and it is as somebody would point out this is where you want to see a view a view to knock your socks off you go live in the favelas because they gave them all the view land, the best prime property. I have an idea. I have an idea for the United States where we can build the favelas. Aspen.
Starting point is 01:22:33 Aspen would be good. Yeah. It's a little cold. They'll get used to it. After Chicago, they'll know what they're in for. It's disturbing. But everybody go to the show notes under, you'll see it, replacement migration,
Starting point is 01:22:50 and get that white paper, take a look at it, read through it, you'll see that this has been planned all the way through 2050, and they're doing it, you know, instead of, in fact, we've done the exact opposite of stimulating population growth to keep up with the aging population.
Starting point is 01:23:09 No, exactly. Sterilizing kids. Sterilizing kids, scaring everybody with climate change. Oh, you don't want any kids for climate change. And why? Because in the infamous words of George Carlin, they want obedient workers. That's what they want. People who will shut up and do what they're told because they're under TPS,
Starting point is 01:23:32 temporary permanent something. They're allowed to stay for a while, but hey, stay in line, do what we tell you to do. We're too mouthyy we're too complicated we have ideas of like running for office no no no and let them vote let them vote let them vote for us who keeps them in office change things what's it gonna change what the the vote no it'll change nothing they'll show they'll change nothing they'll vote. No, but it gives everyone the illusion. Oh, no, they're good citizens. And they'll be washing your car,
Starting point is 01:24:11 shining your shoes, cooking your meals. And I guess we just all want it. A lot of roofers. Meanwhile, in America, we don't really care about that. We're obsessed about stuff like this. Taylor Swift has entered her football era.
Starting point is 01:24:28 If we play like this every time Taylor's in the building, then she needs to be here every week. Swift made her fearless return to Kansas City's Arrowhead Stadium, which she sold out twice last summer to cheer on NFL tight end Travis Kelsey. I told her, I've seen you rock the stage in Arrowhead. You might have to come see me rock the stage in Arrowhead. Wearing red, of course, next to Kelsey's mom, Donna. The reaction? Beyond the NFL's wildest dreams. Travis Kelsey's had a lot of big catches in his career.
Starting point is 01:24:56 This would be the biggest. The women's editions of his jersey are selling fast online. The company behind Kelsey's outfit, capitalizing, calling it the 1989. And stores touting the New Balance shoes she wore to the game, a hot commodity. Swifties know all too well she's a mastermind of her business reputation. Her tour alone expected to add an estimated $5 billion to the global economy, more than the GDP of at least 50 countries. Welcome to the heiress tour. And now her fans suddenly paying attention to the NFL and the players are ready for it.
Starting point is 01:25:31 So troll war plotus just rage quit out of the troll room. Adam, now you lost a listener. Bye. But that's too bad because the reason I played this was only a setup for a classic No Agenda clip, which was sourced from BingIt.io. As we know, we, you specifically, identified the Taylor Swift phenomenon very early on. A decade ago. March 1st, 2009 2009 14 years ago on no agenda episode 76 let's go back everybody and listen to what john discovered who is taylor swift taylor swift yeah this is the news you know
Starting point is 01:26:22 i don't know who who's the one that picks, says, okay, we're going to make her a star. And they find some girls. This is a very cute-looking, puffy-faced blonde who is now a singer, and she's been on everything. She's on this show and that show, and she was highlighted on Saturday Night Live, which was a rerun, but she was first around a couple weeks ago or maybe a couple months ago. Country girl? Country singer? I don't know. She sings kind of the middle of the road, quasi-yodeling, lesbian-sounding
Starting point is 01:26:54 kind of tunes, but the problem is she doesn't have any range. She's got no range at all. She's got kind of a flat voice with a very small, really narrow range, and the material is weak. So she's got kind of a flat voice with a very small really narrow range and the material is weak. So I'm watching
Starting point is 01:27:09 her, but she's pretty. She's pretty. Here we go. Hold on. Oh yeah. Okay. Yeah. I know who she is. Yeah. Andrew Gromit. Andrew Gromit says, oh, you know, my wife and my daughter
Starting point is 01:27:27 are really into this girl named Taylor Swift. And I mean, I don't know what he was going to tell me because then I went off on him. Something about Taylor Swift, I guess. But it's just like overnight, this just happens.
Starting point is 01:27:41 I've never seen anything like it. Does she have a background? Has she paid her dues? Has she been around forever singing the blues in Memphis? The next thing you know, she's there and she stinks. I should add to that because I remember this whole thing.
Starting point is 01:27:58 Her dad was a superstar Merrill Lynch investment banker. Banker, that's what he was investment and he moved the family to Memphis yes where he picked up a bunch of clients that were you know looking to do something with a lot of their money and he had this daughter named Taylor and he's gonna push her into the scene and he did and she be being in a family of smart money she it was a genius at marketing and marketing herself.
Starting point is 01:28:26 And this whole thing with Travis Kelsey, I listened to sports talk. These people actually think this is a boyfriend-girlfriend thing. Uh-uh. Nope. They are so stupid. This is such a setup for publicity. And the giveaway to me was after that game that she attended, they walked together to some limos. And as a new boyfriend-girlfriend, two things that were very observable.
Starting point is 01:28:55 Not holding hands. And the second one, even if you don't hold hands with a promotional woman a promotional woman like her who's a genius at this she would have at least locked arms and gone arm and arm to the limos because that's what you would do if you're a boyfriend girlfriend that's what you would do in the early stages you're going to lock arms or hold hands or or even you know put a know, arm around the shoulder or something. No, none of that. It was two business people walking down together thinking about how much money they're going to make. And here's the business end of it. Travis, did you know you can get this season's COVID-19 shot when you get your flu shot? Two things at once. Two things at once. Two things at once.
Starting point is 01:29:45 I'll have the two things at once, please. Now back to two things at once. Two things at once. That's not two things at once. Mom. Travis, ask about getting this season's COVID-19 shot when getting your flu shot. There it is. It's all transactional.
Starting point is 01:30:05 You know, I think the Kardashians actually saw what Taylor Swift and her family did and the machine because she has writers. She doesn't just, you know, yodel herself. You know, she has writers
Starting point is 01:30:17 who are very skilled, you know, and the whole industry. Look, if you have a decent song, you repeat it in the algo on Spotify five times, everybody it's a hit. That's how it works. It's very simple. It's all transactional. The Kardashians went, it's too bad my
Starting point is 01:30:32 girl, you know, what's your name? The mom the momager. She says, too bad my girls have no talent. Well, we'll just put them on top of some basketball players. That's what she did. So now it's come full circle. Yeah, it works. COVID booster.
Starting point is 01:30:51 COVID booster. What? What? COVID booster. Get a shot. Yeah. Get boosted. Yeah, we see more boosters.
Starting point is 01:31:02 What? Oh. That's right. Time for your covid booster cnn leading the pack new federal data is revealing a disturbing trend in the recent increase in covid 19 cases hospitalizations are rising faster than average among children cnn medical correspondent mcdurell is here with the details are these hospitalizations in vaccinated and unvaccinated children do we know well the vaccination rates among kids are extremely low, particularly for kids under five.
Starting point is 01:31:28 Only 13% of those kids have actually gotten any dose of COVID vaccine. So there's not a lot of immunity out there. This doesn't ring true at all. She's not answering the question. She'll come around to it at the end. But the question is, are these kids vaccinated or not? Well, you know, it's very low and this and, you know,
Starting point is 01:31:44 bad parents. Both from vaccination or from prior infection in that age group, you know, it's very low and this and, you know, bad parents. Both from vaccination or from prior infection in that age group. For teenagers, it's higher. And so you would expect we haven't seen the specific data breaking it out, but that most of the hospitalizations are in unvaccinated kids. Do we have a sense, you talk about the vaccinations, how the administration has handled kind of this latest, I don't want to say wave, spike. What's the terminology I should even use here, but how the administration is operating in this moment? Yeah, we are starting to hear that the White House, of course, is watching this. And today, actually, they've relaunched the home COVID test program, so you can order four free tests per household at COVIDtests.gov.
Starting point is 01:32:15 And experts say this is really important, not just so that you can prevent spread of COVID if you think you might have it yourself to people who might be vulnerable, but also because if you're in a high-risk group, treatment is actually available if you test positive for covid and knowing sooner rather than later helps you actually get those ex-loved for example you have to take pretty soon right yeah within five days oh within five days okay so there's a study that came out from martin luther university halle wittenberg this is a very well-known university 500 year old research university
Starting point is 01:32:45 in germany found that people with the highest risk of long covid or post-covid condition were unvaccinated people infected with the wuhan variant they also just as a sideline tested to see if vaccinated people were better protected against long covid and results say no there's absolutely zero chance that you will have uh that less chance you will have um long covid whatever that is we still don't really know what it is um if you're vaccinated so it's it's the whole this is remember the cdc director our new one mandy cohen said this um so what the vaccine can do is protect you from the worst of what covet is but remember the vaccine early data is showing us it can also prevent you from getting
Starting point is 01:33:37 long covet it decreases your risk of getting long coverage which is extended symptoms from that covid virus so yes protecting from the worst but also protecting you from potential long-term symptoms from this virus, even if you have a mild case. Okay, so it does not protect you from long COVID. That is the peer-reviewed research. So she's a liar. Well, she's poorly informed, which is bad for the CDC director, or she's a liar. But don't worry, NBC to the rescue.
Starting point is 01:34:06 Back now with rising concerns about COVID as we move into the fall. Hospitalizations are up nearly 8%. And beginning today, free tests are once again available at COVIDtests.gov. And for those suffering from long COVID, a study just out is giving new clues to identifying and possibly treating the mystery condition. Here's Anne Thompson. The cello is Joshua Roman's pleasure and profession. But long COVID's made it tough for the virtuoso soloist to play lengthy pieces. What kind of difference has long COVID made in your career?
Starting point is 01:34:43 Hey, go out and get me a human interest story on long COVID. Let's do something about long COVID. Make it something everyone can feel, you know, kind of really bad. I mean, this is a virtuoso. Long COVID has forced me to only do the most important things. Long COVID impacts 6% of adults, according to the CDC. Symptoms include fatigue, fatigue brain fog and memory difficulties now a new study offers clues about potential blood biomarkers we're seeing patterns david
Starting point is 01:35:12 petrino is the lead researcher our study showed that individuals with long covid had significant and measurable differences in their blood and And what were those differences? These differences were a mixture of hormone dysfunction, immune dysfunction, and reactivation of past viruses. Specifically, 50% lower levels of cortisol, the hormone that makes you feel alert and awake, T-cell exhaustion in immune systems, and dormant viruses like Epstein-Barr and herpes reemerging. This isn't a simple illness. This is a complex illness. The study examined the blood of 268 people, some who recovered from COVID, some never infected, some with long COVID like Roman, who wants to not need reminders like this and have total recall of the music he loves. have total recall of the music he loves all right so i'm going to set you up here john uh because this is one of those instances where we both clipped the same astounding discovery um of course
Starting point is 01:36:13 none of this could be from the vaccination itself none of it whatsoever because are you crazy the vaccine protects you from the worst of covid now the reason I'm going to set you up is I actually clipped a lot more shorter bits than you did. You clipped three pieces or three or four pieces. You have it titled as COVID virologist, which is incorrect. So I'm going to set you up with my intro clip of Professor, his name is Professor Buchhalt. He is from University university of south carolina
Starting point is 01:36:47 and he is not a uh virologist he he's going to explain what he is in this and having watched this video it's just the name of the clip i know i'm just but i but i i played your thank you one Thank you. One hour photo. Okay. No cleaners. I like this guy a lot because he has this very, this, this air of, I know exactly what I'm talking about, but the system is so lame and screwed up that I'm just going to tell you guys and do with it what you want. And I like his demeanor. I'll play the intro clip, and then you can play your clips. My name is Philip Buchholz. I have a Ph.D. in biochemistry and molecular biology. I'm a cancer gene jock. Basically, I do cancer genomics research at the University of South Carolina.
Starting point is 01:37:38 And what that means is that I'm kind of an expert on all the ways that the human genome can get futzed with during your lifetime and which of those things cause cancer and which ones don't. Okay, I'll stop it there. And if I feel there's anything missing from your clips, we can play it later. Well, basically, the guy did a little research just on a screwball notion, and I think it's explained pretty well in clip number one. In my professional evaluation of the literature, the Pfizer vaccine did a pretty good job of keeping people out of the cemetery. But it sucked at stopping the pandemic. And it was the best of sucky options that we had. The guy reminded me a little bit of a young meatloaf, by the way. Did you catch any of that?
Starting point is 01:38:19 Did you get that vibe from him? No, none at all. And I still believe that it was deployed mostly in good faith, but there were a lot of shortcuts taken because the house was on fire and we could do a better job next time from the lessons that we're going to learn here. That's my own personal view of this. But I'm also, my philosophical bent here is, I'm sure many of you have heard of Occam's razor, right? Choose the simplest of explanations. Well, there's another one called Hanlon's razor, which is never attribute malice to that which can be better explained by incompetence.
Starting point is 01:38:54 And so I'm trying to be gracious here in circumstances. There could be malice underneath, but I'm trying to see just incompetence to be gracious. So the Pfizer vaccine is contaminated with plasma DNA. It's not just mRNA. It's got bits of DNA in it. This DNA is the DNA vector that was used as the template for the in vitro transcription reaction when they made the mRNA. I know this is true because I sequenced it in my own lab. The vials of Pfizer vaccine that were given out here in Columbia, one of my colleagues was in charge of that vaccination program in the College of Pharmacy. And for reasons that I still don't
Starting point is 01:39:36 understand, he kept every single vial. So he had a whole freezer full of the empty vials. Well, the empty vials have a little tiny bit in the bottom of them. He gave them all to me and I looked at them. We had two batches that were given out here in Columbia. And I checked these two batches and I checked them by sequencing. And I sequenced all the DNA that was in the vaccine and I can see what's in there. And it's surprising that there's any DNA in there. And you can kind of work out what it is and how it got there. And I'm kind of alarmed about the possible consequences of this. No, I don't know what your other clips are, so I'll just let you continue. So I would mention, if you remember our show during the swine flu era, one of the swine flu manufacturing companies actually had
Starting point is 01:40:26 live swine flu viruses in the vaccine. They were so careless with their manufacturing. You remember this? I sure do. And it went out and all kinds of people ended up with swine flu because of the vaccine. And it was like the problem is, and I think
Starting point is 01:40:42 it's kind of elucidated in this guy's presentation, even though he never says this, the fact that they're held harmless because they've been giving the green light, whatever you put in there, whatever you shoot into people, you're not liable. Don't worry about it. This is the problem. it this is the problem and that's why the what he claims is this careless uh amount of dna which is the the part of the system that made the rna is still there because what's the point we can't get sued we just slop this stuff out who cares just crank it out and if it does damage too bad here we go part two both in terms of human health and
Starting point is 01:41:26 biology but you should be alarmed about the regulatory process that allowed it to get there so this dna in my view it could be causing some of the rare but serious side effects like death from cardiac arrest there's a lot of cases now of people having suspicious death after vaccine. It's hard to prove what caused it. It's just, you know, temporally associated. And this DNA is a plausible mechanism. This DNA can and likely will integrate into the genomic DNA of cells that got transfected with the vaccine mix. This is just the way it works. We do this in the lab all the time. We take pieces of DNA, we mix them up with a lipid complex like the Pfizer vaccine is in, we pour it onto cells, and a lot of it gets into the cells, and a lot of it gets into the DNA of those cells, and it becomes a permanent fixture of the cell.
Starting point is 01:42:21 It's not just a temporary thing. It is in that cell and all of its progeny from now on forevermore. Amen. So that's why I'm kind of alarmed about this DNA being in the vaccine. It's different from RNA because it can be permanent. This is a real hazard for genome modification of long-lived somatic cells like stem cells, and it could cause, theoretically, this is all a theoretical concern, but it's pretty reasonable based on solid molecular biology, that it could cause a sustained autoimmune attack toward that tissue.
Starting point is 01:42:55 It's also a very real theoretical risk of future cancer in some people. Depending on where in the genome this foreign piece of DNA lands, it can interrupt a tumor suppressor or activate an oncogene i think it'll be rare but i think the risk is not zero and it may be high enough that we are to figure out if this is happening or not yeah the idea being if you're getting foreign dna mixed into your body it's with you forever including
Starting point is 01:43:21 your kids and your grandkids and could be going on for generations. So this is a this because he's speaking to, I think, the state legislature and they're like, well, we can't. What are we supposed to do about it? I there's other stuff. There's more detail that he goes into. But I just wanted to wrap it with the third clip, which is his kind of a summary of what we have to do. And the main thing is the obvious, which is clean these vaccines up. And he then talks about how he thinks this platform is great, which makes me think he's pretty objective about this.
Starting point is 01:44:00 Get the DNA out of the booster and all future versions of this vaccine. I'm a real fan of this platform. Okay. I think it has the potential to treat cancers. I really believe that this platform is revolutionary. And in your lifetime, there will be mRNA vaccines against antigens in your unique cancer. Okay. And and but they got to get this problem fixed okay and i and i right now i think the financial incentives are too great to just keep on rolling with it yeah i wanted to add two things to this because he went into a lot of different things um the first one is when this first came out we were told over and over and over again, no, you conspiracy theorists,
Starting point is 01:44:51 no, there's no, it's not DNA, it's mRNA. It's not DNA, it's mRNA. A little nerdy science here. The central dogma of molecular biology is that DNA gets transcribed into RNA, okay? And then RNA gets translated into protein. This is just how life runs. Why does this matter? Well, DNA, for the purposes of this discussion, DNA is a long-lived information storage device, okay? What you were born with, you're going to
Starting point is 01:45:21 die with and pass on to your kids. DNA lasts for hundreds of thousands of years um and it can last for generations if you can get pass it on to your kids right so alterations to the dna they stick around rna by its nature is temporary it doesn't last and that feature of rna was part of the sales pitch for the vaccine. There it is. It was part of the sales pitch. It wasn't DNA. It was mRNA. Yeah, but they were right. The mRNA is what it's supposed to be in that shot.
Starting point is 01:45:55 The DNA in there is just because it's careless sloppy. Well, not entirely. It's a little different. And this is, I i think the killer clip the way you do rna transcription in vitro transcription reactions you have to give it a dna template okay and you can give it a dna template that is just a synthetic piece of dna that is only the instructions to make the rna and that's what was done for getting the emergency use authorization and the clinical trial. That's called process one, if you look up that kind of stuff. They made a PCR product of just the bits that they wanted, and then they did the in vitro
Starting point is 01:46:36 transcription, made a bunch of RNA of that. There was no plasma DNA to contaminate the stuff that was used for the trial. But making that PCR product doesn't scale the way that was necessary to vaccinate the whole world. So a cheaper way to scale up the production of this template is to clone that PCR product into this plasmid vector, put the plasmid vector into bacteria, and then you can grow up big vats of the bacteria. They make a lot of the plasmid DNA for you.
Starting point is 01:47:03 Then you use that plasmid DNA as the template to drive this transcription reaction to make your RNA. And that's where, how the contamination ended up in the production batches, even though it was not in the stuff that was used for the authorization trials. That's, that's the thing. Yeah, but again, again, it was contamination.
Starting point is 01:47:24 Yeah, no, of course it was. But the reason why is the vaccine might have been safer or completely safe for the emergency use authorization. But then when they went into production, they did it a different way. And that goes back to what you just said. That's the old lab versus field stuff. Yeah, and don't worry about it. I don't understand why it blew up out here. Don't worry about it.
Starting point is 01:47:47 It's all good. Not a problem. And I don't have, I'm not going to play a clip, but the only other thing that was interesting that he said is that he tested multiple batches of Pfizer, and he says Moderna had much less DNA. And what they had done is they tried to get rid of the DNA by slicing it, slicing it, slicing it,
Starting point is 01:48:06 and just left a lot of bits in there. But by his own testimony, it doesn't matter how much is in there, as long as it's in there, through the lipid nanoparticles, it will fuse with your own DNA, even if it's just a little bit. He talked about buckshot.
Starting point is 01:48:22 It doesn't really matter. But he said some doses had much lower DNA amounts in it, so technically less chance that you'd get it, and some had much more, very high. And that might explain the stories we've seen about certain people who got certain batches having more adverse events. That was my takeaway from what he was saying.
Starting point is 01:48:48 So this, to me, this is a very big deal. Yeah, I thought so. And heads should roll. Yeah, nothing's going to happen. Nothing's going to happen? Oh, no. nothing's gonna happen oh no but since you're since we're on the topic since nothing's gonna happen you might as well play fauci in the cia because nothing's gonna happen about this nothing's gonna happen dr anthony fauci is now accused of secretly visiting the cia's headquarters during the pandemic where he allegedly tried to influence the CIA's headquarters during the pandemic, where he allegedly tried to influence the agency's official findings in their investigation into the origins of the
Starting point is 01:49:31 pandemic. That's according to U.S. Representative from Ohio Brad Wenstrup, the chairman of the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic, who described the concerning information in a letter he sent to the Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services. Earlier, I spoke with physician and former U.S. Ambassador Dr. Jeff Gunter. He's also currently running for the U.S. Senate in Nevada. Dr. Gunter, great to have you on our show. Thanks so much for coming on. As a doctor and an experienced diplomat, how do you view the allegations that Dr. Anthony Fauci attempted to influence the CIA's investigation into the origins of COVID-19? I'd give a solution or an answer just
Starting point is 01:50:12 like Yogi Berra did, the famous baseball coach. It's deja vu all over again. None of this is particularly surprising to me. During my medical school years, I was cutting my teeth during HIV from 83 to 87. I remember Dr. Fauci then. When I was heading up the U.S. Embassy, thanks to our great President Donald Trump, I let the team know that I believed that this virus came from a bat to a bottle and somehow got out of the lab back then. and somehow got out of the lab back then. Then when I read the emails of various scientists going and talking to Fauci before he published that article of the proximal origins of COVID in Nature, one of the premier journals, which clearly now was a misdirection of the American public, it's not surprising. It's Fauci deja vu all over again.'s sad it's disheartening the American public deserve
Starting point is 01:51:06 and need to know the truth about the worst pandemic the world has ever seen it's also it's like and nothing will happen yes nothing will happen yeah it's just another story to be subjugated or
Starting point is 01:51:22 another story for the show diverted by Taylor Swift news. Yeah. Yeah. There's a second clip. Could it get any worse? In your view, are there any indications of political or national security motives behind the
Starting point is 01:51:36 alleged suppression of the lab leak theory by public health authorities? It's a fantastic question. We all know that when you mix medicine with politics, what do you get? You get politics. It was so obvious when it happened, when COVID came out to me, that it was a lab leak. And it turns out that it was being funded by Fauci. So absolutely, absolutely, they're trying to craft the narrative. More people died with COVID with Joe Biden than they did with President Trump. I love the died with COVID. Doesn't More people died with COVID with Joe Biden than they did with President Trump. I love the died with COVID. Doesn't mean you died of COVID, but you had COVID.
Starting point is 01:52:11 The jury's still out on the effectiveness of vaccines. They say that it limits hospitalizations and severe illness. There's no evidence to show that it makes you less infectious to the other people. I just checked the CDC hospitalizations for COVID right now in Nevada. They're not significantly high. Deaths are down. So what does that tell you? It tells you that there's an election coming up. It tells you that when you mix politics with medicine,
Starting point is 01:52:37 especially with this administration, you get politics. All right. I'll try and top it before we take a break well i have two more clips oh uh about this about covet i have three more covet clips actually i loaded up on covet today you're dude you're you're seething with covet but these are historical clips. Okay. These are from 2021. Ah, we love that. When the Delta was just coming out and they were arguing about what to do about the shot and Delta. Yeah, the Delta variant.
Starting point is 01:53:19 Yes, the Delta variant. And the Delta variant. And they were besides themselves in all kinds of different ways. delta variant the delta variant and it was they were besides themselves in all kinds of different ways they were tying themselves into knots over the delta because it was creating something if you remember this word there's a term that we forgot breakthrough oh breakthrough infection yes yes it broke through the vaccination you got a vaccine you got your booster you got your second shot you got your booster and then you got covid which everybody seems to have got done and that at the time the first time he started to show up these were called breakthroughs yes and it was disconcerting
Starting point is 01:53:56 oh my god another breakthrough and eventually they stopped using the word because it was meaningless because everybody got the shot. They got COVID. So let's play a couple of these historic clips from 2021. Part of the allure of the modified mRNA technology behind Moderna and Pfizer's COVID vaccines is how easy it is to update. All you have to do is reprogram a string of genetic code and voila. Voila! Update! just like windows 11 could make a new vaccine tailored to fight dangerous new strains of the virus but the booster shots that the white house wants to roll out next month likely will not be re-engineered against the
Starting point is 01:54:38 ultra contagious delta variant ultra contagious wbur's angus chen joined Bob Oakes to talk about why, and he started by explaining how the technology works. The mRNA-based vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna, and also the Johnson & Johnson DNA-based vaccine, all contain a string of genetic code based on the original coronavirus' spike protein. Our cells use that code to make this spike protein, and then they build immune molecules that can neutralize it. The thing is, this string of code is easily reprogrammed. So vaccine makers can rewrite it and make it based on the Delta genetics or any other variant you might want to counter. It's also not a big deal from the manufacturing side because you don't really have to change what you're doing to make that updated vaccine. So if it's that straightforward, Angus, how come the booster shots are unlikely to be updated?
Starting point is 01:55:26 Well, I spoke with Harvard immunologist Dr. Dan Baruch about this, and he said updating the vaccine should theoretically provide better protection against Delta. But in reality, it probably wouldn't make a big difference. And that's because Delta isn't that different from the ancestral coronavirus in its physical shape and form. So, the antibodies from the original vaccine should still work against it. Dr. Baruch thinks there's another reason why Delta is causing cases among vaccinated people. Wow. It's good you're doing this because it's good to remember how they've been lying for years, years on end and coming out.
Starting point is 01:56:03 Fooling themselves. No, I think, you know, throw in some Taylor Swift news. People forget. And they want to forget. We've been so traumatized by this. I think people are twitching just listening to these clips. And I, again, I'll go back to, I don't think they're lying. I think they're dead sincere and stupid.
Starting point is 01:56:22 Well, yes. Dummies abound. Dr. Burr. Dummies. Yeah, no. Dummies abound. Dummies? Yeah, no, continue. Part two. Those are long clips. That's a long one. Dr. Baruch thinks there's another reason
Starting point is 01:56:33 why Delta is causing cases among vaccinated people. The increased breakthroughs with the Delta variant is probably more related to its hyper-infectiousness rather than its intrinsic ability to evade antibodies. Ah, the breakthrough. Basically, when you're infected with the Delta variant, you end up breathing out a lot more virus
Starting point is 01:56:54 than you would if you had the old coronavirus. It's a lot more transmissible as well. So people are both more likely to be exposed to it and be exposed to more of it. But Angus, if there's even a small benefit from using an updated vaccine as a booster, then why shouldn't it be developed and why shouldn't we take it?
Starting point is 01:57:16 Part of the issue is right now there are millions of vaccine doses in storage across the United States and they are effective against the Delta variant. While stocks last. Especially when it comes to preventing severe illness or death. Updating the vaccine now might draw public faith in those doses, which concerns Dr. Benjamin Linus. He's an epidemiologist at Boston University. Wait, stop a second.
Starting point is 01:57:39 You got to hit, what he just said was, well, there was a lot of inventory left. And then if we don't give that as the cure for Delta 2, it will make people lose confidence in that early shot because it's not good enough. Yeah, then we won't move the inventory. Our shoes need to go. We won't move the inventory, and people are going to lose confidence, and that's going to make it even slower to get their first shot. Yeah. It's like they're running a game on the public you don't want to sell the new yeezys until
Starting point is 01:58:10 the old ones are off the shelf yeah you got to get this marketing 101 i don't know what message it would give if they said oh we have a new highly you know specially engineered vaccine for delta does that generate concern that the original vaccine didn't work against delta which is absolutely not true and i want to remind, I think we were pretty much doing this deconstruction when it was taking place. That's why we still get notes from people saying, man, I'm glad I was listening to you guys because we were breaking this marketing story down continuously. Yeah, these are our old clips. Linus and other health experts I spoke with said the goal right now
Starting point is 01:58:45 is really to vaccinate as many people as we can in the United States and in the rest of the world. Using a vaccine that still works is a better way to do that than waiting for an incremental gain in efficacy that we might get from an updated vaccine. But Angus, don't you think that any COVID booster shot, updated or not, is going to be greeted with skepticism from some members of the public reluctant to take it perhaps those pesky podcasters might be all over this marketing scam yeah it's definitely possible i mean vaccine skepticism has been something that is oh it's growing has been going on in the united states for quite some time. Oh yeah, podcasters. I don't think a booster shot is going to change that or do anything to really fix that. I think what a booster shot does do is it helps people who might really need that extra protection to stay safe
Starting point is 01:59:36 against the Delta variant. I think what's a more important question when it comes to booster shots is whether or not these shots would be better put to use by sending them, you know, around the world or around the country to people who are unvaccinated and want to be vaccinated, but haven't had the access or the ability to do that yet. And I think that's something that public health experts and officials are going to continue to grapple with and think about for some time. That's WBUR'sus chen speaking with bob oaks boost all right can i are you done i i'm gonna be done yeah i have one more thing that is similar but it's about the ivermectin bull crap and i'm gonna that, save that for another show. Good. Before we take this break, I think I figured out the F-35 ejection op.
Starting point is 02:00:29 I'm calling it an op now. Could be. So what we know is the pilot was very experienced. He was one of the top, top pilots. I know this from... If you're going to do an op op you want your top men of course you do you don't want some slouch that's gonna screw it up right so he ejects the plane continues to fly until it crashes because you know we heard all the things i was on autopilot. And we had that cool guy. I mean, I, at this point, I'm pretty sure that the witness, the eyewitness who saw this guy.
Starting point is 02:01:15 Good God. What in the world is this? He may not have been paid for it, but he was in on it. Maybe not knowingly. The shill. Hely the shill the she was he was the shill so the thing that bothered me the most on the last episode was the 9-1-1 call it's like why are you why are you not calling hq now some of the jet jocks who i talked to said well he was kind of the top guy so maybe he would have had to call himself.
Starting point is 02:01:45 I'm not quite buying that. But we did get confirmation from a 911 call taker dispatcher, says having listened to the reported 911 call from the F-35 pilot who ejected, I believe it to be a legitimate recording of the incident. And I put this anonymous 911 dispatcher's reasoning. Yeah, I read that. Yeah, it's okay. It was legit.
Starting point is 02:02:09 Sounds legit. Sounds legit. But this reminded another one of our F jet jocks of a scene from Top Gun 2. a scene from Top Gun 2. And the scene in Top Gun 2 is Tom Cruise has now ejected from this experimental aircraft. Sound familiar? And he doesn't call 911, but to make it a little funnier, he walks into this Hick Diner.
Starting point is 02:02:40 Here he is. He's walking in. The bell is ringing. He points, and he's looking all haggard and all blowed up, and he's asking for a glass of water. And, you know, it's just a diner. All the people are looking at him like, where did this guy come from in his space suit?
Starting point is 02:02:56 So he's drinking his water. Thank you. Where am I? Earth. And the little kid says, you're on earth thinking he's a spaceman so that would be the equivalent of the 9-1-1 call totally unbelievable that you walk into a diner and with your space suit on and you're all dirty from ejection and you know from explosion and you give me some water and where am i earth the next scene the very next scene he is in with i think was paid played by um i was named ed whatever he's
Starting point is 02:03:35 he's the commander and he's berating tom cruise he's saying what is going on with you you have all these commendations you should have been a senator or an admiral by now. Why are you still doing this? Why are you a captain? You should be at least a two-star admiral by now, if not a senator. Yet here you are. Captain.
Starting point is 02:03:58 Why is that? It's one of life's mysteries, sir. This isn't a joke. I asked you a question. I'm going to belong, sir. This isn't a joke. I asked you a question. I'm where I belong, sir. Well, the Navy doesn't see it that way. Not anymore. These planes you've been testing, Captain,
Starting point is 02:04:21 one day, sooner than later, they won't need pilots at all. Pilots that need to sleep, eat, take a take a piss pilots that disobey orders all you did was buy some time for those men out there the future is coming and you're not in it i believe this to be a script to let people know that the biggest problem the plane wasn't the problem it was the loser pilot. And the military industrial complex is going to come out with something sooner or later to let us know that, you know, we really don't need pilots anymore. We have the new F-35.
Starting point is 02:04:57 Oh, no, it doesn't need a pilot. I think this was life imitates art. That's an interesting theory. Well, you've been bitching and moaning for probably 10 years about the pilotless plane. Yeah. Hey, if the F-35 pilot can't even keep it going, I mean, we shouldn't have those guys. We shouldn't have that. You are not in the future of aviation, son.
Starting point is 02:05:22 I don't know. I just ran it by the F guys and they all like you know they've been they've been trying to get to this for a long time yeah well it is a goal so we'll see there's no i remember the one time i was at i was at i think it was nellis in Vegas. I was getting a tour. And they were proud of, they had these drones there, they were just on display. And they went on and on about how great their drones were because, yeah, I took the red flag course, whatever it was called, I got to sit in.
Starting point is 02:06:01 And the drones are better because there's no, you're not going to kill these you know these pilots you put a lot of money into one of these guys and he gets killed that's money down the drain yeah it's annoying it's annoying it's very the pilot's not too happy hey with that i want to thank you for your currency in the morning to you the man who put the c's in fauci in the cia ladies Say in the morning to you, the man who put the C's in Fauci and the CIA. Ladies and gentlemen, say hello to my friend on the other end, the one and only, the unnameable Mr. John C. DeVore.
Starting point is 02:06:34 Well, in the morning to you, Mr. Adam Curry. Also in the morning, our ship's sea boots to the ground, feeding the air, subs in the water, and all the dames and knights out there. And in the morning to the trolls in the troll room. Sir Bemro, stop doing that. People are trying to count the trolls before it's time to count the trolls. I already counted the trolls.
Starting point is 02:06:51 We had 1925 before we would have taken our break. Don't do that. Let me count them now. There it is. So we have, what is the count at this moment moment is 1862 but it was 1925 10 minutes ago 1862 is the average i know but it was above it was above that average but it probably is always above it but you know ben rose has to sit there like oh i can count the trolls i've got the power and he ruins the whole count.
Starting point is 02:07:26 It's like telling the punchline. Don't do that. Heisenberg principles. Okay, now he's repenting. I'm sorry, I scared a bunch of them off. Yeah, you did. Hey, those trolls are in the troll room, trollroom.io. This is where you can listen to the show live on Thursdays and Sundays. But it's 24 hours a day. And there's always a good podcast on no agenda stream.com it's all talk no commercials
Starting point is 02:07:51 actually it's not all talk because we have um darren o who does the rock and roll priest pre-show before uh every no agenda for two hours it's where everybody hangs out i mean you go to the troll room there's always people sitting around hanging out. Sometimes they're listening to the show. Sometimes they're not. But during this show, they are. And they're trolling around, doing all kinds of trolly stuff. Some of them even rage quitting. That's what trolls do.
Starting point is 02:08:17 Now, you could also follow us. Because of the Taylor Swift. Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. You just lost a listener, man. So let's make sure Warplotus never shows up again. I was actually surprised we did the story. I mean, I was prepared for it because of my mention of them not walking out holding hands.
Starting point is 02:08:35 It was a genius segue. I took us from a classic clip right into COVID. Come on. It was programming. You'd love to be complimented. No, I don't. I'm complimenting myself. I don't need any help from you.
Starting point is 02:08:51 That's true. You don't need any help. You don't need to be complimented. But if you feel like it, I mean, do whatever you want. It's all good by me. You can also follow us on our Mastodon instance, which is quite private since we've been blocked by everybody else in the Fediverse. Every other Mastodon instance thinks we suck. Do whatever you want.
Starting point is 02:09:14 We're bad. It's all good. You can follow John C. Dvorak at noagendasocial.com, Adam at noagendasocial.com. And we're always there kind of hanging out seeing what's going on and posting stuff and getting stories. Sometimes you guys have good stories
Starting point is 02:09:29 and the memes are down. That's good. No more memes. I'm happy about that. I'm not happy. This is a value for value podcast. We came up with a name. We invented the concept.
Starting point is 02:09:42 We discovered quite by accident almost 16 years ago that asking people to subscribe for premium content or just some low number, which does not represent the amount of work that goes into it, the value, it's only going to be a few people anyway. It's only three, 4%. So you might as well say, hey, what is it worth to you? And we were surprised when we saw, I think certainly during COVID, when people were like, well, my life was worth quite a lot. Thanks.
Starting point is 02:10:12 I appreciate that. I'm going to give you more than $5. And that's how we've been running it. And we'll be celebrating 16 years coming up in October. Around October, I think the end of October, the 20th or something. Yeah. At the very beginning, we were suckered by the notion that it only didn't, believe me, didn't last long, which was the idea that, well, if you're going to, I think we had, I don't know how many thousand people, probably 50 maybe at the most.
Starting point is 02:10:51 But if you had 50,000 people and they all gave two bucks a month. Yeah, we were driving Lambos in our mind. That's $100,000 a month. In our mind, we had Lambos. That's a lot of money. And two bucks is cheap. So the 50,000 people would say, oh, it's only two bucks. And two bucks is cheap. So the 50,000 people would say, oh, it's only two bucks.
Starting point is 02:11:11 So I'm going to, as if 50,000 people are going to pay two bucks, 10 bucks, no bucks. They'll do that. No, it's not even close to possible. And then we started noticing that people would giving their favorite numbers. They were just making up numbers. Numerology. with some stories involved oh this number you know this and that means this to that to my wife or whatever and we realized that open-ended is the way to do it yeah and forget these little you know the idea that everyone's
Starting point is 02:11:37 going to chip in because they don't no never will you know what's interesting i've been i of course follow the the slow collapse of the podcast industrial complex. Your favorite thing to do. Yes. And so Podimo is a Swedish company and they raise a lot of venture capital, like 160 million euros. And they've gone all around Europe and they're buying up all the podcasts, buying up all the podcasts and putting them behind a paywall. And so now there's a problem. And the problem. I can see the problem already.
Starting point is 02:12:11 Well, problem one is, so they had to convert a number of people from the free podcast. Unless it's not free, but open and available with ads or whatever they were doing. Or no, I don't know what they were doing. To pay money. So I think they literally are doing five euros a month for their entire offering. But now they can't get any new people in because they have no product that is open. It's not discoverable. Exactly.
Starting point is 02:12:38 Discoverability is the top thing you need, especially in new media. Exactly. And so they have to do like in-person appearances and set up a tent and do the show from a from a market uh a market square and then to get people interested in the show you can't you can't get and of course they only got maybe five percent of the people went from from you know hey this is a cool product i'll listen to an ad or i don't think anyone was doing value for value to five euros a month, which by the way, is the first thing to go when things get tight. You know, with us, it's like people come and go. Like, I'm in it and then
Starting point is 02:13:16 I don't listen for a while, man, overboard. And then, oh man, I really feel nervous. I feel jittery. I got to listen to no agenda and get get a fix and then people come back you know give give back the value when you feel like it when you're ready for it however a lot of people that haven't come back from what i can tell no they come back a lot of people come back they do where's our anonymous lesbian well that was that was your handler i i don't that's she was your contact. She moved to New York. Well, now there's your answer, isn't it?
Starting point is 02:13:49 That is the answer. Surrounded by the milieu. The milieu is more powerful than the show. So we only ask for value to be returned whenever you feel that you've received enough value and how you do it is up to you we do have three categories time talent and treasure and we have a lot of people putting in a lot of time you know writing us reports and corresponding with us going out hitting people in the mouth organizing meetups there's lots of things you can do with your time talent is fantastic when you see what the artists are doing, especially since I was moaning about the use of AI. The artists have finally come back and started to do stuff by hand and with their tools, not relying on the crutch of a copying
Starting point is 02:14:38 machine to do stuff that makes it all look very pretty but makes everything subsequently boringly pretty you know like drones like non-playing characters in a row and paul couture artist number one number one on the uh on the no agenda art generator he nailed it he had such a great piece now we did it we did have some discussion about things we looked at a number of pieces but this um caution this episode may cause sudden death i think i think i think it was good it warned people because man i got a lot of people who said hey man i'm not dead but it really freaked my dog out. Or, hey man, I have a headache now because of that tone that you played. Apparently no one died.
Starting point is 02:15:29 No one died. And no one got a headache from it. No, one said he got a headache. He said. He said he got a headache. And it was a cool looking piece. You know, high frequencies. It had the little antenna there.
Starting point is 02:15:43 It was a fun little warning sticker. Yeah, and it was different. It was totally alien to what we've normally been doing, which is what we want, some variety. And this is extreme variety. It's a sign, the kind of sign that you go to a sign maker that do highway signs. Exactly. Yeah, which is very different. Now, you like the Melon Girl, which I'm sure you used in the newsletter. You used the melon girl, which I understand why you like that piece.
Starting point is 02:16:13 It's a good piece. It's a good piece. It's a girl holding a melon. Yes. What more did you want from a piece? It was good. It was 808 on the melon. We looked at the human mulch from Dave Kenny.
Starting point is 02:16:26 Was that going to happen? Yeah, but you know what? It wasn't an AI piece. That's what I like. It's like, oh, thanks. You did some work. It just wasn't what we wanted. It didn't quite work.
Starting point is 02:16:37 Dave Kenny also did the Chicago tent. I think the clown part is what didn't make that one work. Let me see which one that was. This was based on the base camp tents in Chicago with the asylum seekers. And she made a circus tent. Yeah, I see this. It says Chicago on it? Yeah, it does say Chicago on it.
Starting point is 02:17:00 Tent City? It doesn't say Tent City. And you said, what doesn't work? The clown. There's no clown there. Well, no, it was a circus tent, like clown world type deal. To me, it was confusing. It didn't quite show.
Starting point is 02:17:11 Oh, no, it didn't work at all. Okay, thanks. That's what I'm trying to say. It didn't work. You like... We have a new guy that obviously showed up. Pet Rocks or Pet Rex, who did put our pictures on, they say, that's an automatic no, so forget it. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:17:30 We stopped doing that and showed 200, I think. Yeah. It was the first year of no agenda art. Yeah. When Randy Asher and Paul Couture were doing it pretty much by themselves. It was nothing but pictures of us. In general, we don't like pictures of people. Generally. Certainly not politicians.
Starting point is 02:17:52 You can already see someone's done Justin Trudeau as Hitler. It's just not going to happen. Yeah, and that's a cliche. You liked the Burma shave, which was from Parker Pauly. It would have been better if it had some punchline at the end it didn't have a punchline exactly it would have said something something something no agenda would be the way the model should be i also like the train though but that's just a pure evergreen piece and probably it does have some ai in it yeah yeah it's pretty it's pretty. That is definitely an evergreen.
Starting point is 02:18:25 Nestworks, of course. Yeah, professionals. But just looking at the overview, you can see... It was a good selection. Yeah. I thought there were at least three or four pieces we could have used. Now scroll down, like, to the, almost to the bottom of that page, and go look at the submissions for 1591.
Starting point is 02:18:45 And that's, and you see the difference. Everything AI on that page. And it becomes boring. And when people use their God-given talent... 1591 is the selection sucks. Yeah. Although everything's pretty and everything's... I don't even think that's true looking back at it. Yeah. Although everything's pretty and everything's, you know, I don't even think that's true looking back at it.
Starting point is 02:19:06 Yeah. But, you know, this is, this is, this is the danger. Well, I have some,
Starting point is 02:19:11 I have some fun AI stuff we can talk about later. We can fight over it. But thank you very much for Paul Couture, who of course also runs and has set up and run for my my goodness, how many years now, the Art Generator? How many years have you been running this? But well over 12 years, I would say. NoahArtGenerator.com. You can see all of these pieces of art at NoahArtGenerator.com.

Starting point is 02:40:48 Yeah, this came up on Horowitz, on DHM Plugged. He was unfamiliar with your thesis, which is not a thesis. It's a fact. It's on the FAA.gov website. And it's probably worth repeating at some point uh again because uh well very very quickly because you i heard it and you almost explained it right to to combat climate change instead of going down different levels and staying away from the turbulent air or flying above you know above it before going down another you know to another flight level.
Starting point is 02:41:29 The FAA has decided you can just coast down and just coast all the way down. Turbulence be damned.

Starting point is 02:49:15 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 want to be. Drink it all, hell's a lame. You want to be where everybody feels the same. It's like a party. It's like a party. Like a party.

You'll beat that easy um how about this one i feel like our patrons just have really good taste no that's not good this is this is the one this i think this is the one just may boost it boost the sound a little bit this is i mean
Starting point is 02:50:17 brought all those other ones just the shills to play this one extra extra awesome oh it's pretty good right i do like it okay you do you do like you do like as opposed to just liking it i do like you like it let's listen to yours how do we trust these guys ah wow i'm you know that's kind of a tough call that is coming extra extra awesome how do we trust these guys i like yours better i think how do we trust these guys is funnier i like that it is funny it's funnier it's funny it's also um the audio is better so i give that to you give it to you okay we'll take it give it to you um hey meta unveiled its ai chatbots did you see the presentation i i saw part of it but i didn't well follow it too closely this is
Starting point is 02:51:16 facebook falling on its face as far as i'm concerned throwing down the digital gauntlet in the ai race currently dominated by chat gpt. Mark Zuckerberg showed Meta's recent cost cutting has not stopped them keeping up with the integration of artificial intelligence into daily life. Now, this is really interesting because, you know, I mean, what is it? A chat? What are they doing? It's, you know, artificial intelligence. I mean, throwing down the gauntlet against chat GPT open AI, which as far as I know is free and I don't make any money on it, but hey, he's got an idea. What could it be?
Starting point is 02:51:50 I think that one of the most interesting questions for our industry over the coming decades is going to be, how do we unify these experiences of the physical that we have with this vibrant digital world to create something that is more coherent and just better than anything that we have today. Is that one of the most important questions that we have in this industry today, John? Would you say that is the answer? Not that I know of.
Starting point is 02:52:13 I don't think so either. Part of Meta's answer is their new chatbots. Available in the US as of Wednesday across Instagram. There's too much chatting going on already on Facebook. Why do you need a chatbot? Well, there's a payoff to this. And WhatsApp. These bots search for answers using questions through Microsoft's Bing, and their responses
Starting point is 02:52:34 will use Llama 2, a language model that the company made open source earlier this year. Let's check this out. So let's say you're planning dinner. You've got Max the Sous-Chef. Oh, this is why you need it. You need the chatbots, and you have Max the sous chef. Who can help you come up with a recipe.
Starting point is 02:52:53 Oh, wow. Oh, what is this? What, do you have your own chef at the house? This is not a normal person. Oh, yeah. No, you have a chef. And help you come up with ideas. So if you want to find a way to sneak some broccoli into your kid's dinner, Max has got you.
Starting point is 02:53:09 Let's say you add too much salt to the recipe, he can help you balance it out. This feels like a demo from, like, 1999. The intelligence may be artificial, but the personalities are being made to feel very real. Users of Meta's platforms will be able to interact with 28 chatbots that will feel familiar, as celebrities have agreed their voices and likenesses can be used in the feature. The goal is that AI characters will eventually appear in the Metaverse as avatars, but Zuckerberg said these products would roll out slowly so as to deal with any privacy and safety concerns that arise. So what this is, is you have some quasi-celebrity chef.
Starting point is 02:53:49 You know, they're celebrities. So I don't know which Max this is. And he has allowed his image and his recipes, supposedly, to be built into the llama model. And maybe even his voice. I don't know. And so that's what they're selling. It's like,
Starting point is 02:54:08 oh, okay. So you get a celebrity chef. This is what you should do for wine. I mean, obviously, but they won't pay you. They're paying those guys, but that's what you want.
Starting point is 02:54:16 I would love to have the John C. Dvorak wine chat bot. Yeah, we can do it ourselves. I think we can, even if we just hire some uh asylum seekers to answer well we get some we got a lot of app developers in the audience one of them can crank this out for us yeah and what will people pay for it that's the question i don't see any extra value for value
Starting point is 02:54:37 they will oh please yeah so barry diller went on cn CNBC to talk about AI. And this is a very different kind of AI. This is what you, on the last show, said will change the art world. But it's all about copyright. And I thought it was interesting because he had a couple of things to say. And he hates AI, he hates everything. He just hates everybody. Yeah, you and him.
Starting point is 02:55:11 Yeah, and I'm kind of liking him now. Let me ask about AI, because you have been quite public about it. AI, I mean, I'm so sick of it. You're sick of it? You were ready to see. I love this. Already I'm liking him. AI, I'm so sick of it. I'm Shmay I. I love this. Already I'm liking it. A.I. Shmay I.
Starting point is 02:55:27 I'm so sick of it. I'm sick of it. Oh, Shmay I. I mean, I'm so sick of it. You're sick of it? Well, you were ready to sue. Oh, no. You won't want to do that. You're going to sue. The gobbling up of every piece of noise about AI infecting your toenails is not that it is not transformative.
Starting point is 02:55:53 It certainly will be over time. But I'm just tired of hearing this hype noise. As to litigation. You were trying to put together a group of publishers yes to sue chat gpt and others no what we're what we want to do is a very simple thing okay copyright the copyright law has in it something called am i boring you has something called fair use there's someone on the set looking at the laptop, he's like, am I boring you? Fair use means that you can take an excerpt thing, something, and not pay for it. Fair use needs to be redefined because what they have done is sucked up everything.
Starting point is 02:56:36 And that violates, we believe, the base of the copyright law. All we want to do is establish that there is no such thing as fair use for AI, which gives us standing. Once we have standing, then depending upon how this works out over time, there is at least status. Right now we have no status. They got all our stuff. How do you not do it? Most companies have now said, as we have, our.desk Meredith, which is the largest publisher, we've said, you can't do this anymore. And they won't from now on.
Starting point is 02:57:13 But they got all the old stuff. Do they have to pay you for that? Violate the copyright law. You write something, you make something, and somebody takes it, literally appropriates it. We believe that is simple wrong. That's in the copyright law. Once you get that, then at least you have standing. That's all we want to achieve. Do they have to pay you for that? How do you make the AI?
Starting point is 02:57:39 Well, let me ask you a question. If you have a copyright on something, there is some kind of exchange. Now, right now, all these conversations that we're having and others are having with all of the chatters, they say, yeah, we're happy to make arrangements. Then what percent of zero would you like? Because there's no revenue. That's the point. There's no revenue.
Starting point is 02:58:02 He says, how much percent of zero will you want? Because no one's making any money off of it you want because when no one's making any money making any money of course now he makes a classic mistake classic mistake by now he's going to prognosticate about the future of ai the next thing to pay attention to on ai is not search and chat and stuff like that. It's when it goes from research to action. When it can autonomously get things done for you. Think of travel, being able to say,
Starting point is 02:58:35 I want to go to Istanbul. It knows enough about you, enough about all of your preferences, that it can basically ask you one or two questions and then actually go and execute the transaction. Right now, it's research. When it turns to action, everything changes. How many decades have we heard this? This is a never-ending, holy grail, what he described.
Starting point is 02:59:02 The smart agent, it'll work on your behalf when your fridge is out of milk it will automatically order new milk for you i have heard this for decades it's the old hey hello what do you want so i'm the maytag repairman well i didn't call for repairment no your washer did yeah there was one interesting article uh that was in the business insider you know we had the the smartest people in the world talk about ai with the senators behind closed doors you know as elon musk said you know it's very important to save the world so that's why you need the smartest people in the world in the room and now we have a leak we know what what was discussed have you seen this no
Starting point is 02:59:54 several tech leaders descended upon capitol hill last week to discuss the rapid expansion of generative ai which as far as i know does not exist yet it was a mostly stead meeting until the potential harms from meta's new llama 2 model came up during the discussion attended by most of the senate's 100 members tristan harris remember that guy now he's one of the most smartest human beings in the world oh yeah sure a co-founder of the Center for Humane Technology said he recently had engineers take Meta's powerful large language model, Lama 2, for a test drive. After some prompting, Harris said that a chat with Lama 2 came back
Starting point is 03:00:39 with a detailed walkthrough of how to create anthrax as a biological weapon. Oh, please. According to one person familiar with the form and two senators present, that prompted a testy exchange between Harris and Zuckerberg. Most specifics of the exchange between Harris and Zuckerberg have not been previously reported, though Harris receiving directions from Lama, too, about an unidentified biological weapon was noted by the Washington Post. And of course Zuckerberg then hit back and said, you know, you can get this on YouTube. If you want to find out how to make anthrax, you can get it on YouTube.
Starting point is 03:01:16 So this is what they were talking about. And I believe it. They're so stupid. This is how stupid they are. Well, it's definitely the stupid part, I believe. It's stupid. They're stupid. The this is how stupid they are it's definitely the stupid part i believe it's stupid they're stupid the whole thing is stupid and it's going to change our world can't wait can't wait uh we're over time well we're only over time because we had a huge pause you think we're over time but no you i i bet we're way over the pause was only five minutes the pause was 10 minutes but would you like to play one clip or you want to leave on
Starting point is 03:01:51 this no i don't know but i want to i want to i'll tease the clips why don't you play a clip let's play well here's the let's play the second part of a clip this is i just want to bring up this you know menendez menendez yes has been kicked out and i have two clips. I just want to bring up this clip. You know, Menendez has been kicked out. And I have two clips, but I just want to play the second one, which is Schumer commenting on Menendez. He doesn't even know the guy's name. He calls him Menendul. Is this the update?
Starting point is 03:02:21 Menendul via Schumer. Oh, Schumer, Schumer, I got you. Senator Chuck Schumer broke his silence at a press conference on Wednesday. Like you, I was just deeply disappointed, disturbed when I read the indictment. But we all know that senators, for senators, there's a much, much higher standard. And clearly, when you read the indictment senator menendez fell way way below that standard okay i get to do a 30 second clip this was senator menendez menendez that's fantastic this was um matt gates who's been all over the
Starting point is 03:03:03 all over the mainstream lately with a big mouth. And I have to say, this was one of the funnier things he's done. You are your record. And our record in this country right now is $33 trillion in debt facing $2 trillion annual deficits. We're in so much debt. We're driving up deficits so fast. We are devaluing American money so rapidly
Starting point is 03:03:26 that in America today, you can't even bribe Democrat senators with cash alone. You need to bring gold bars to get the job done just so that the bribes hold value. Come on. Well, yeah, well, good move. Yeah, very funny. The guy's a showman. They're all showmen. He's just funnier. Yeah, that is our deconstruction for today. We're over time.
