Time for your Gitmo Nation Media assassination episode 245.
This is No Agenda.
Fighting a conspiracy of balloon pranksters every single day from the Hilltop Watchtower, Crackpot Command Center, Gitmo Nation West, and the People's Republic of Southern California.
In the morning, I'm Adam Curry.
And with a long, less winded introduction, although I could go longer, I'm John C. DeVorex.
It's Crackpot and Buzzkill.
In the morning!
In the morning to you, sir.
What's this about balloons, my friend?
Well, I figured that you would be...
The tables will turn today, and you will be the conspiracy theorist.
By the way, I want to welcome all the human resources out there, and I want to say hello to all the ships at sea.
Yes, and of course all of our human resources in the chat room who are all charged up and ready the way their government loves them.
And remember, it ain't over till the fat guy gets tased.
Okay, so how am I the conspiracy guy this week?
Well, seeing as we had on the 17th, this was actually a tough one, I think.
We have our four days in between shows.
Was it Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday?
Yeah, almost four days, really, when you think about it.
And, of course, on the 17th, we had identical UFO sightings over Phoenix, Arizona, El Paso, Texas, Manhattan, Richmond, Virginia.
Identical, daylight, high-quality video.
And I figured, you know, what can you say?
All you can say is, yeah, it's some kids with balloons.
So that means there must be a conspiracy of balloon pranksters out there.
There could be.
There could be an underground.
It could be a Facebook group.
Oh, yeah.
It's a Facebook group.
It's a Facebook conspiracy.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Of course.
Of course it is, John.
That's what the kids can do nowadays.
You're just kind of like, you know, your daughter.
How about you just admit that...
How about shooting these things down if they're stationary?
This is what cracks me up.
Have you seen the video?
Have you even looked at it?
Or are you so jaded you won't even look at the video now?
Well, you got me.
So if you actually would take some time, go into the show notes at NoAgendaShow.com, look it out there, you will be blown away.
And by the way, all the mainstream news, and I have two reports which I'd like to share with you, Now they're just like, well, okay, it's UFOs.
Hope they're friendly.
I swear to God!
And they're just making fun of it, and they put in X-Files music.
Let me play two clips before we get started.
First of all, over Manhattan, clear skies, blue skies, obvious that these are craft, doing things that...
Balloons can't do this, John.
Balloons are not capable of this type of formation and movement that they made.
But they're completely identical to what was seen over El Paso.
This news report, local from El Paso, really sums up how real this is because, of course, we have to then make fun of it.
You're...
Oh, here we are.
Hold on.
Lights hovering above East El Paso tonight.
With even more strange, very similar lights were spotted in Manhattan just two days ago.
X-Files music.
Above the skies of Northeast and East El Paso tonight, a sight that was a little more than stunning.
This is what one of our photographers, Ray Moreno, caught on video.
One solitary light that appears to be falling in the sky.
But that light suddenly breaks apart into two, then three separate lights.
Yeah, this is what balloons do all the time.
Actually, there's aluminum balloons that are not made out of rubber.
And they go very fast.
It's great how fast those aluminum balloons can go.
They'll fall, and then when they break up or whatever, because they probably broke up already and end up being maybe in pieces.
And they have light, so they have huge batteries on board, these aluminum balloons, John?
Is that what it is?
It reflects the sun, yes.
At night?
They reflect the sun at night.
Okay, this is a nighttime video.
Those lights then just freeze in the air and begin to hover.
Eventually, a fourth light can be seen.
Then the lights appear to be hovering and then moving in a strange pattern.
Then they all disappear.
We received a lot of phone calls into our newsroom tonight from people in the northeast part of town and on the east side, all of them wanting to know what was going on.
And the descriptions from everyone calling, basically the same.
One caller thought a plane was falling.
Another thought it was a meteorite.
So what would you do, John, if you were a good news organization?
Well, if I had seen this, I would have at least tried to find the remote control pilot or something.
I would have probably followed up a little better.
I would have called the Air Force at least.
Okay, the report is not over.
Thank you.
Others, though, said it looked like a UFO. Now, you want to get really creepy?
Check this video out.
Just two days ago, in the sky above Manhattan, people froze on the street there as they saw these three lights hovering in the middle of the day.
And check this out.
The three lights are close to each other, then spread out into this triangle pattern.
Now, look at the patterns side by side.
This from Manhattan and the other tonight in El Paso.
I gotta tell ya, they do look eerily similar.
So, let's do some investigative reporting.
Well, tonight we did talk with the El Paso Airport spokeswoman.
She says there were air show planes in the air tonight.
Now, I love this.
There were air show planes in the air tonight.
Yeah.
Now, as an aviator, I'll tell you that it happens all the time.
We always practice close formation at night.
It's very, very smart.
It really hones your skills amazingly.
And we do it in whisper mode, too.
Wait, wait.
There is a...
I don't want to be...
We do it in whisper mode.
This is maybe a sick comment.
Yeah.
But the Air Force Thunderbirds have been known to crash a lot.
And so maybe...
Well, they did now.
And they hover.
And, you know, they were doing some great maneuvers.
Maybe they were in Harriers.
Yeah.
Silent Harriers that hover.
But now listen to how these jabronis follow this one up.
Maneuvers.
Though she couldn't tell us exactly which crews were doing that.
More exercises are going to happen tomorrow night as well.
And not only tonight are we doing these amazing Silent Harrier lit close fly-by maneuvers in the dark.
We're going to do them again tonight, everybody.
Just stick around.
We'll be here all week.
I know you are a believer.
That little green men were floating around above us.
Actually, we were more like joking about how they probably were in Manhattan and they were like, oh, these New Yorkers are too rude.
Let's go somewhere nicer.
The New Yorkers are too rude.
Let's just go somewhere else.
Yeah, exactly.
All right, it's very funny.
But also over Richmond, Virginia.
That may have something to do with the clips.
Hold on, listen to Richmond.
I got Richmond, Virginia.
Richmond's fan district last weekend.
No, it wasn't Mark Holmberg.
People who live there want to know.
Jonathan Martin from RVA TV gave us this video he shot last night near Floyd Avenue.
There it is.
It shows a strange little ball of light dancing in the air.
Dozens of people reported seeing this unidentified shining eye.
This is Richmond, Virginia.
This is Spook Central.
Why aren't the F-16 scrambled to shoot this out of the sky?
...object in the fan area.
We spoke with one of the witnesses.
It looked like a star.
It was moving like a bug, real sporadic, very quick, and blinking on and off, almost kind of like a Morse code type blink.
Witnesses we spoke with say the strange light was moving in the air for about four hours.
Please don't investigate.
Don't send any F-16s or anything.
John, there's only two possibilities.
One...
Truly, as predicted, okay, a day or two late, but we had the whole minor thing that the minors were being saved, so the UFO is like, oh shit, we're being usurped again, so we'll just wait until the coverage is over, and then we'll come out.
They do, as predicted.
Normally when these predictions come out, it's like, oh, they didn't feel like it, or it's not quite time yet, or you just didn't see them.
But now it was simultaneously above multiple cities in the United States, the same formations, this exact same phenomena.
So it's either real...
Or it's perhaps Project Bluebeam, but that's for another day.
Project Bluebeam?
So everybody out there that listens to our show has to go look this up now because you're going to save it for another day?
They don't have to look it up.
It's in the show notes at NoAgendaShow.com.
But I'm willing to believe that this was real, particularly the way that...
Listen to this response from...
In New York, they had a guy from NASA on.
They had the spokesman from NASA. What do they call it?
Space Agency, yes.
The Solar System Ambassador.
This guy is so bad.
He's what?
The Solar System Ambassador?
The Solar System Ambassador to the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
Who gave him this job?
The Solar System or somebody on Earth?
It's like the World Series.
They actually ask him that in the report.
So the guy is like, he's sitting there with his face.
It's like, who can we put out there who can tell a bold-faced lie and no one will care if it turns out that he was a liar because the guy doesn't matter.
That in front of us right there, that man is Jason Kendall, and he has quite a title, Jason.
The NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory Solar System Ambassador for all of New York City, whatever that means.
Thank you so much.
It sounds very important.
We just want to let folks know, though, at the bottom of the screen, there are all kinds of texts that people are sending in.
I was actually reading some of them, their comments on the UFO sightings or whatever it may be.
Or whatever it may be.
Good to have you with us, Jason.
Thank you.
We're getting some feedback here, instant feedback.
Yes, instant feedback.
Did you see what that was?
No, I didn't have the opportunity to see it.
I live way up in Inwood.
I'm the solar system ambassador.
No one called me.
They didn't knock at the embassy door.
Manhattan, so we didn't see it up there.
So here's what's happening today.
There are a lot of conspiracy theories out there.
Conspiracy theories!
There's no conspiracy theories!
There are conspiracy theories!
Of course there are!
This is network news!
It's conspiracy!
What do you think they really could be?
Well, one thing's for certain.
The first thing that they're most likely not is spacecraft from another planet.
Listen, I'm the ambassador.
No matter what you say, one thing's for certain.
What they are not is spacecraft from...
This is unthinkable.
Shut up, slaves.
That's unfortunately the case.
They're most likely not that.
My personal theory is that they're most likely balloons.
Just balloons!
Kids on Facebook.
With balloons.
Yes.
Prank by a kid.
Prank by a kid!
These kids are pretty damn sophisticated.
I'm hiring this kid.
NASA should hire this kid if you've got a kid who can make a prank this elaborate in four cities at the same time.
There's other possibilities, too.
There could be any number of things.
There could be high-flying aircraft.
They could be...
High-flying aircraft.
Hmm, Harrier jets.
Something coming in from orbit.
They could even be very...
Something coming in from orbit, John.
He actually said it.
What does that mean?
He actually said it.
It could be something coming in from orbit.
Yes, that's exactly what it is.
It's something coming in from orbit.
From a foreign solar system.
Like what?
Mr.
Ambassador.
It could even be very, very high altitude.
Clouds!
Clouds!
Oh yes, it's clouds!
Clouds are not flying now.
But they do look, all the pictures do look very compelling and they're very interesting.
And they do seem to be certainly flying.
I'm really happy that that's not...
Isn't it the jabroni of all jabronis?
Life from another planet and we're not being invaded, Jason.
Well, that would be good.
I'm personally glad about that too.
It's not a good time right now.
It's not a good time.
We're not in a very welcoming mood.
What do you mean?
You're the ambassador.
You should be there with open arms.
Say hello, welcome.
What else as an ambassador do?
You host people from foreign solar systems.
If they want to come in and they watch us, that's fine.
So have there been As long as it's good for the ratings, right?
Sightings like this in our area?
To the best of my knowledge, no.
I don't know.
Anyway, so let's just get the guy's title and then we're done with him.
Yes.
I volunteer with NASA and Jet Propulsion Laboratory based out of Pasadena.
And I do public outreaches with them on NASA missions that are currently happening in space today.
Yeah.
And I lie for a paycheck.
We talk about lots of things all over town.
I give talks and do uptown stargazing.
How does he get that gig?
I don't know.
I want it, though.
I want to be the solar system Adam Curry, solar system ambassador.
Hello.
Welcome.
How you doing?
Welcome to the embassy.
I'll build a little landing pad here at the hilltop.
Watchtower, no problem.
So, this is just real.
Every single response, all the stupid answers, these jabronis they roll out, it means it's real.
This was a real occurrence, and I strongly urge you, John, to at least take a look at the video.
Alright, I'll take a look at the video.
I'll check it out.
I'll give it the once-over.
I'll look it over good.
Yeah, you give it the once-over.
You're such a non-believer.
I'll check it out.
Maybe somebody else...
Hello?
Who's there?
I'm ready.
I'm ready.
And unfortunately, California was completely, at least Southern California, completely clouded over.
You couldn't even see the road, let alone something going on in the sky.
I'm sure they were there.
Okay, well, I'm glad that we got that out of the way.
Yeah, well, me too, John, you non-believer.
You balloon boy conspiracy theorist denialist you.
So let's go.
We do have some producers this week, so we should credit them while the crediting is good.
That's nice.
Nice to know.
Well, first of all, we do have the last two of our 10-10-10 nights, which will be given exclusive executive producer slots.
Boris Marinoff and Frederick Guimond.
Boris...
Marinoff.
With a V. And Frederick.
Guimo.
Right.
Guimo.
Guimo, yes.
Who was concerned that he didn't get one earlier.
And then for this week, our donors for this week include soon to be, I think he's a new knight, Adam Burke-Piles.
Oh, yeah, this is...
The proprietor of the Pocket No Agenda app.
Right, and he also does Real Punk Radio and Core Documents.
And release anywhere.
And we really appreciate his Pocket No Agenda app, and I believe that this proceeds from the app, and it is without a doubt the best app to use for the show.
The bat signal comes through on it, you engage your iPhone, and immediately you get the live stream.
It's a great app.
Great job, and thank you for the support, and thank you for the work.
His gross amount was $500.
Eric Hertha, Carl Gables, Florida, $400.
He's also an executive producer?
He's also an executive producer The rank of executive producer.
Okay.
I just got my tax money back.
Lots of Obama money.
Here's your cut.
Yay!
Can you mention www.hospitalitybusinessnews.com?
Sure.
Which is curious because I've spoken to the hospitality industry more than a few times and I'm a subscriber to the hospitality magazine, whatever it is.
Well, if you are so hospitable, you should be a little more kind towards our alien visitors.
Well, if I get more speaking gigs, for sure.
Hey, listen, aliens, if you want to turn John into a believer, just get him some speaking gigs.
You've got to, like, abduct him.
Give him an anal probe or something.
Thomas Nussbaum, another executive producer, 33788, Virginia Beach, Virginia.
Also no stranger to the show.
Final third of my birthday, 10-13-65.
I didn't get a birthday shout-out for being the 13th with the UFOs and all.
Yep.
My donations were on the 7th, 14th, and 21st.
So he's a knight.
He will be a knight today.
He's going to be a knight.
And 7 plus 14 plus 21 equals 42.
Nice.
Nice, nice, nice.
Creative.
And finally, an associate executive producer came in, Marco Scari, from Columbia, the great city of Columbia, South Carolina.
Marco Scari?
S-C-A-R-I. Could it be Scari?
Or we just say Skari.
It'd be Skari.
It wouldn't be scary.
Nobody wants that for their last name.
I know they don't want it, but it could be.
They would pronounce it differently.
So we completely appreciate the support from our executive producers, our standalone executive producers, who, of course, are left over and will be mentioned today as special credit standalone for their 10-10-10 donations.
And this program would not exist without you.
We have no other means of financing it.
We do not intend to finance it any other way so we can remain true and we can have a real honest conversation about visitors and children from other lands.
Of course, this is a very real credit.
It works just the way it works in Hollywood.
When you contribute to the movie or the television series, this is what you get.
Go ahead and turn on the television if you really must, and you'll see exactly this happening.
The only difference between a Hollywood credit and our credit is that we will actually vouch for you.
Apparently somebody watched the last episode of House, and there were 13 executive producers that were individually named.
Yeah, awesome.
How many do you need?
Well, it's an expensive show!
Yeah, it is.
Duh.
Cost a million bucks to produce that show.
So, Boris Marinoff, Frederick Guimaud, our standalone executive producers, executive producers for episode 245, Adam Berkpile, Eric Hertha, Thomas Nussbaum, thank you so much, and of course, our associate executive producer, Marco Skari, Skari, Skari, Skari, Skari, thank you so much.
Everyone else out there, go out and propagate our formula.
It's the least you can do.
Our formula is this.
We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
New!
World!
All down!
Say it, everybody!
Now you know what to do!
Shut up, slaves!
Shut up, stupid slaves!
So we might as well go...
Oh, wait a minute.
I'm sorry.
I had one PR mention that I wanted to...
And this comes along with the idea of the Primer Show, which you and I have actually discussed.
A lot of good ideas coming in for that.
And still good ideas coming in at the drop.
Drop.io slash NAPrimer.
P-R-I-M-E-R. Some good testimonials there.
This is from Ryan Braidlove.com.
Donating in the past was the producer that suggested the drive for three.
This was the March 3rd funding drive we did.
Recently started a new PR initiative for the show called No Agenda Shots.
This is how you vaccinate the populace with a little shot of no agenda.
The idea came from all the political emails my friends send me.
I've created an account on YouTube called No Agenda Shots, and with this, the No Agenda producers have the ability to send short No Agenda clips to their friends and post them on forums, Twitter, and Facebook.
So far, I have 12 shots posted, and of course, I'll put the link in the show notes so you can propagate those.
They're short little bits, and he plans on doing three every single episode from now on.
Episode number one is Germany Boy.
So essentially he's taking little three to six minute clips of the show, which represent...
Right, that's actually a skill, by the way.
It's a total skill to edit that, get the right piece out.
That's really the trick.
Make it short.
And so what he's done is he pasted the album art over the audio.
And this was of us in our lederhosen with the drunken goat.
That was the Germany Boy episode.
He says, I plan on applying for ads on YouTube.
If successful, getting an ad partnership, which is tough because they put you through some rigorous terrorism testing, I will donate 67% of all ad revenues to no agenda, allowing me to keep the magic number 33%.
I believe this PR initiative will create an excellent viral campaign, hopefully a source of money.
We hope so, too.
And if not just for money, getting these things going viral is a big deal.
I receive hundreds of emails between shows, and a lot of it is just that.
It's like viral stuff.
You know what went really viral this week?
The Rent is Too Damn High party.
That guy, yeah.
I love this guy.
How come we don't have a guy like this in California?
I'd vote for him immediately.
We do.
Who is it?
Jerry Brown.
This guy, not only does he look the business, he talks the business.
Maybe not everyone who listens to the show, certainly not worldwide, has heard this.
We have a gubernatorial race on in New York City, and there's, I think, seven candidates.
New York State, yeah.
New York State, I'm sorry.
One of which is a former escort madam, who, by the way, I also like because she said something.
I don't have a sound clip of her, but she said, you know, all politicians are whores.
I'm the only one that will actually admit to dealing with them for real, which I thought was a great line.
But the rent is too damn high guy, man.
This guy, he's like...
Yeah, that's the name of his party, by the way.
Yeah, I know.
Rent is too damn high.
I represent the rent is too damn high party.
People are working eight hours a day and 40 hours a week to sum a third job.
Women can't afford to take care of their children, feed their children breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
My main job is to provide a roof over your head, food on the table, and money in your pocket.
This is politics as usual.
Playing a silly game.
It is not going to happen.
The rent to them high movement, the people I'm here to represent, can't afford to pay their rent.
They're being laid off right now as I speak.
They can't eat breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
Listen, someone's child's stomach just growled.
Did you hear it?
Gotta listen like me.
Let's talk about the issue.
Mr.
Cuomo, 30 seconds for you, sir.
Rent is too damn high.
Rent is too damn high.
I love that guy.
I like the way he tails off with his message.
Well, they also closed his mic.
Yeah, I know, but that made it even better.
They didn't realize it because they didn't pot him down fast enough.
But he's also a karate expert.
Yeah, that's what he says.
Along with being a karate expert, he's wearing the gloves because they're a registered dangerous weapon.
So I think these are more like holsters instead of gloves.
What I like about him is that part of the karate vibe is you don't talk trash about people.
You just kick their ass if you have to.
As a karate expert, I will not talk about anyone up here.
Because our children can't afford to live anywhere.
Nowhere.
There's nowhere to go.
Once again, why?
You said it.
The rent is too damn high.
Thank you, Mr.
And everyone's already chanting it.
It's great.
It's got everything in it that you need.
I want this guy.
I mean, he looks like a leader.
He looks like a nut.
No, he's great.
That beard.
I mean, how do you get your beard to look like that?
Have you seen Abraham Lincoln's beard?
I mean, come on.
The guy has a skunk beard.
It's white and black.
So what?
I like the guy.
And he had the best response ever to gay marriage of any single politician I've ever heard.
Come on.
Mr.
Cuomo.
Hold on, here it comes.
First, I'm with Jimmy.
The rent is too damn high.
Alright, so Cuomo, let me jump on the bandwagon.
So here it is, the...
What do you think about gay marriage?
Rent's too damn high, party for you.
If you want to marry a shoe, I'll marry you.
If you want to marry a shoe, I'll marry you.
I'm sorry.
He's a libertarian.
He's a winner.
He's a winner is what I say.
We need more guys like this.
Win all the way.
Go rent too damn high party guy.
You go.
Hell yeah.
So, um...
You have nothing to say because you know the guy's good.
I like the guy.
All right.
I mean, he's the most highest entertainment value candidate in the campaign this year.
In fact, I haven't seen too many.
The closest that we've come is the Aqua Buddha.
I haven't seen the Aqua Buddha.
Oh.
Well, here, take a look.
It's, uh...
Well, just play the clip, the Rand Paul clip that I sent off.
Okay, here we go.
Anonymous quotes from a GQ magazine article, and it was a hot topic at a weekend debate between the two candidates.
When is it ever a good idea, a good idea to tie up a woman and ask her to kneel before a false idol, your god that you call Aquabuda?
Jack, you know how we tell when you're lions when your lips are moving, okay?
You're accusing me of crimes.
Do you know nothing about the process?
You're going to stand up there and accuse me of a crime for 30 years ago from some anonymous source?
How ridiculous are you?
What was this about?
I didn't hear about this one.
Well, this is the debate with the with Rand Paul and the guy running against him, whose name alludes me.
But he came out with the apparently GQ published something about Rand Paul, like when he was in college.
He used to, I guess, make women get naked and put handcuffs behind their back and then get on their knees and worship the Aqua Buddha.
Okay, I'm liking Rand Paul more now, too.
Yeah, that's what a lot of people say.
And it's like, wait a minute, there's no references, you can't find out anything about this quote-unquote aqua Buddha.
Aqua Buddha!
And it's pretty obvious what we're talking about here.
Yeah, a bong.
Yeah, I got, no, well that could be, I was thinking a little more lewd, but I got your aqua, you know, the wet Buddha, you know, you gotta worship him, get on your knees, woman.
Oh, the wet Buddha.
The wet Buddha.
I like the bong better.
I think the bong is closer to reality.
You know the dude was probably toking away.
Oh, he looks like he still is.
But he got so adamant when this guy called him out on it.
But the thing was, it was such a stupid thing to call him out on because you knew it was bogus.
It was bogus.
That's funny.
But this Aqua Buddha is like a meme.
It should be a meme.
The funny thing is, and you didn't hear about it, it just basically floated around the right-wing media a little bit and never got into the mainstream.
As funny as it is, instead everybody went with the Rent's Too High guy and they left the Aqua Buddha out.
They left it on the table.
They left the Aqua Buddha on the table.
There was there, the Aqua Buddha was left flaccid.
I think you deserve a little...
You get one for that.
Oh, before we continue, John, a moment of silence and thought and prayer, and thanks to Bob Guccione Jr., who passed away.
He did?
Yes, 73 years old, of course, the publisher of Penthouse Magazine.
And many in Aqua Buddha has...
Has stood before his magazine.
That's what I would think.
I had to meet him once.
Really?
Yeah.
Seemed like a pretty car guy.
He had a party at his apartment in New York.
You got around, didn't you, back in the day?
And he was just exactly the way.
I mean, everything that you would think, just stereotype the whole scene, boom, that was it.
I love it.
Perfect, yeah.
So it's exactly what did you get laid?
I didn't get laid, unfortunately.
Was there some laying going on?
I don't know.
It was hard to tell because it was like the girls that were there, and there were just tons of them, really had kind of a creepy quality.
They were gorgeous, but it was like there was something really off.
It wasn't a comfortable place to be.
You know, that's what the Playboy Mansion has become.
Because I know a lot of people...
It's kind of like it used to be an exclusive thing for celebrities.
And, you know, I got an invite to the mansion.
But now it's literally a whorehouse.
Where you go to the party, the girls are bussed in, so they can't even leave.
They can only leave with the bus.
And you get a token, and you can buy tokens, and a token is good for $100.
And you can only surmise what that gets you in the grotto.
But it's literally become a place to get laid for $100.
I mean, I know tons of guys who are like, the Playboy Mansion was really fucking creepy.
You know, you get a token and the girls are like, you got any tokens?
Got any tokens?
You can give them a token and they blow you.
It's like, huh?
That's not...
The Playboy Mansion was supposed to be like, you know, crazy and nutty and, you know, the Bill Cosby would be hanging out and all the, you know, the people you wouldn't expect to be doing nutty stuff but not like paying for sex.
You wasn't supposed to be paying for it.
I was going to go to Nevada.
Yeah, it's just weird.
It's really weird.
It's sad.
Sad days.
Good times are gone.
All over.
That's because the government has taken over, as we now know, as we read and try to understand better.
By the way, I did get some more notes on the Tenth Amendment thing that we're promoting.
This little thing that was written a couple of years ago, we're trying to promote that.
Yeah, nobody else is.
Although I have to say, the Virginia governor, this guy Bob McDonnell, seems to be part of a...
Virginia pulled a quick one on Obama and their health care plan.
They passed a law before the health care plan passed, a Virginia law that says nobody can force you to buy insurance.
Right, well this is exactly, this is the right thing to do.
So they passed this, and so as soon as Obamacare was passed, they sued the government using the Tenth Amendment as their basis.
And I got a couple of clips here that are kind of enlightening, and I want to bring out a few more.
Obviously, this Robert McDonald is partly behind this.
He's the newer governor there.
And I want to say, what's interesting to me is now you're starting to see subtle propaganda aimed at Virginia, specifically.
Yeah, like UFOs flying over it.
Well, it's not the UFO so much, but in Foreign Policy Magazine, there's a very negative blog posting, and it's just they make Virginia look like a bunch of old Confederate whack jobs.
Can I just, for our foreign listeners who may be new, and I do see some new people in the chat room, noagendachat.net, is what we're talking about here is the Tenth Amendment.
It is a part of the United States Constitution, our constitutional laws, because...
The way the United States was originally set up and still should be today is the states have their own rules and laws that precede or overrule anything the federal government may try to do.
In fact, the federal government really can't impose anything on the states, but this has been forgotten.
Wait, unless it's specifically in the Constitution or has something to do with the laws in the Constitution, like fine-tuning them.
Right, okay.
And so forcing the purchasing of insurance, and of course this is why we have a president who was a constitutional lawyer, he says, is because words matter.
You twist stuff around and say, well, this is under the constitutional, for the general good of the population something.
Isn't that it?
Isn't that what they sold this as?
That the government can make this rule and force us to buy insurance?
Well, actually, the government uses a couple different things typically to ram their federal legislation down the throats of the public.
One is the Commerce Clause.
Commerce Clause, right.
Which is the fact that anything that has to do with anything that goes on between the states can be governed by the federal government, which is what they're going to try to do with the marijuana thing, which we're going to talk about later.
If it passes, the government's going to come right after California using the Commerce Clause saying that, well, you're not going to be able to keep it in California.
And somebody's going to take some of the dope they buy in California and sell it in Nevada.
So now it's subject to the Commerce Clause.
That's what they're going to do.
The other one is the taxation laws.
And that's what they're trying to pull with this thing that Virginia did.
And before I play the McDonald clip where he talks about the Tenth Amendment, this beautiful clip, which I thought was just hilarious, was Greta Van Susteren did this report, by the way.
And it was, let's see, what is the name of this clip?
It's called the Health Care Bill.
Now, if you remember when they, as a new tax, if you remember when they passed it, they said, no, no, no, it's not a tax.
You know, you're going to get fined if you don't take health.
Yeah, by the IRS. It's not a tax.
By the IRS. But the IRS will fine you.
If IRS will find you, but it's not a tax, it's not a tax, it's not a tax because Obama said there's no new taxes.
So play this clip.
One of the questions that came out today, which I've got to tell you is my favorite of all, is the question is that when this was passed, as I recall, the House and the Senate, those people in favor of it, and the President of the United States said, no, no, no, this is not a tax.
They were emphatic about it.
The politics is because no one wanted to raise taxes.
Now, though, the lawyers are in court for the federal government, the Justice Department, and now they say it is a tax.
That's right.
So there's a little bit of a little...
They should talk to each other a little bit, but why does it matter if it's a tax or not?
Well, first of all, I call that a flop-flip, because they started with the right position.
A flop-flip?
Is it supposed to be a flip-flop?
He calls it a flop-flip.
It's not a tax, and it matters because Congress has the power to tax.
So if this is a tax, the legislation is saved under the taxing power, even if they didn't have the power to do it as a regulation of commerce under the Commerce Clause.
So this is their fallback provision.
That's the significance in this case of the tax argument.
In terms of looking at the statute, the House originally used the word tax.
It went over to the Senate, and the Senate quickly got rid of the word tax.
So the final bill, does it use the word tax at all?
Not to describe the failure to buy the government-mandated health insurance.
There are all kinds of taxes in the final bill, but if you don't buy the government-approved health insurance, what is assessed against you in the bill is called a penalty, not a tax.
Or a fine.
Yeah.
Right.
Which is, by the way, we have, you know, I was listening to somebody the other day going on about how we have the lowest taxes in the world.
Please, please, brother!
No way!
We have the highest!
We have probably the highest in the world, if you count all the various, you know, levies like, you know, fines and penalties and screwball taxes on your gasoline airport tax.
Rent a car!
I went down to DMV to register the...
The SOP. The Saab in my name.
I have the 1999 Saab Niner 3 convertible.
Silver.
With the lights always on.
And I paid three grand for this thing.
I had a usage fee.
A usage fee.
Which I guess is another word for tax.
A $460!
That's like 11% of the price of the car.
What is the usage fee?
What is that?
It's a tax.
It's just a way to take your money.
It doesn't do anything.
It just goes right into the tax coffers.
It was like, what?
$460!
Is that a percentage tax or is that a set fee?
Nah, they just nick you for anything they can.
You paid it, didn't you?
Well, I had to.
Yeah.
Otherwise, you...
Yeah, now the government's got it.
Yeah, but who...
What is this base?
The car is...
Nothing.
This is like, you know, you rent a car in this country, and it's like, oh, great, $19 a day, and you walk out of there, it's $65 a day.
There's the airport tax, there's the lot tax, there's the fee tax, there's the usage tax, and there's this fee, and that fee, and the other fee, and the next thing you know, you pay twice as much.
I mean, it's ridiculous.
You know what I do?
I don't rent cars anymore, barely, but I'll fart in the seat and smoke, just to spite them.
You rip-offs.
What difference does it make?
It's not the rental car company.
It makes me feel better.
Oh, okay.
If that works.
Okay, well, here's Robert McDonald, Virginia governor, discussing what they did, part of it, and how important the Tenth Amendment is, and how we've just completely dropped the ball on this, and apparently Virginia's picked it up.
Governor, nice to see you.
Thanks, Greta.
And the Commonwealth of Virginia, you're taking on the big guys.
You're taking on the feds.
In health care?
Yeah.
There's a number of things that we're looking at that we're trying to restore some meaning to the Tenth Amendment.
And frankly, just to try to do locally what's best for the people of Virginia.
Mr.
Jefferson said the government closest to the people governs best.
Well, that's Richmond and not Washington.
So, yeah, the federal health care bill, it's about health care, but the lawsuit that we have filed is really more about what is the balance of power between the state and the federal government.
Is the Commerce Clause so broad that it could have a mandate by Congress to They would deprive you of your property if you fail to buy insurance.
And so that's what's at stake here.
And I think over these next months and years, we're going to have a very robust debate in this country about what are the limits of federal power.
What does the Tenth Amendment mean?
And if it means something, let's get it restored to rebalance the state federal power.
What's so interesting, because you have the health care battle, and in the course of the health care battle, you do have sort of the states, the Commonwealth of Virginia as well, sort of rising up almost against the power of the big federal government.
And that seems to be sort of a shift.
We haven't seen much of that lately.
No, I think for probably 60, 70 years, the federal courts have upheld acts of both Democrat and Republican Congress that have probably, in my view, overstepped the bounds of Madison and Jefferson and Mason, put in place some 230 years ago.
And so this is what you're seeing now, particularly with this Rapid march to the left this Congress has taken over the last couple of years with things like health care.
So now, he's not the most erudite with this Tenth Amendment thing.
He knows there's something going on.
He's boring is what he is.
Boring.
He's a little on the boring side.
It's not working that way.
And she doesn't really understand that there's a movement afoot.
I mean, she's just kind of like playing along.
You know, she's a lawyer anyway.
She's mostly concerned with the law.
She's got the weirdest face.
Well, she's had a facelift, which makes her look even weirder.
I don't know if Ridd's had a facelift, and she's just...
It's weird.
It's just weird.
Yeah, she has a weird facelift.
But anyway, the point is...
It doesn't matter.
I like her.
We're missing out...
I mean, this Tenth Amendment thing still hasn't caught...
I mean, I think our listeners, after hearing us discuss it in some sort of a meaningful way, and if anyone's read the nullification book by Woods, they'll have a handle on it.
But if you don't do that...
In fact, I got a note from somebody the other day saying, well, you know, the good thing, I'm all with you on this, I'm a federalist.
And I said, what do you, and he said, he misused the word, the idea, you know, because we have a federal government, we have all these states, they all have powers, and so if you're all for that, you're a federalist.
That's not true.
If you really look at the definition of federalist, a federalist are people who believe in big federal government.
They want the centralized government to be a national government, and there is a movement in this country that's been going on since the Roosevelt administration, at least, that promotes the idea of a national government, which is what we're trying to avoid, because a national government doesn't serve the interests of the people in the various states.
The country's too big.
In fact, during the...
Civil War in the 1800s, if you read any of the documents that were floating around...
I read them on a daily basis.
Most of the Europeans at the time all felt, you know, because they thought that England should own half of the country and France should own the other half, the South.
And everybody in Europe, especially these countries, not anybody in Russia, obviously, but the countries in most of the European countries all believed that the United States at the time, in the 1800s, when it wasn't completely filled out...
It was too big to govern by a central government.
It was way too big.
It had to be hacked up, and they were actually partially responsible for this.
Having read Nullification, what it really boils down to is language.
This is what I see as the big problem, because it's all about interpretation of how something was written back in the day, What was meant with it by those standards and how language, literally language is interpreted today.
That's what I'm seeing is a huge difference between interpretations and basically that's all that lawyers do.
They just speak a different language and they translate and they're like, oh, whatever, the lawyer said so.
But it's about the words.
The right to bear arms.
He even goes into a well-regulated militia, which when the Constitution was written meant organized.
So there's a whole bunch of different things.
It's like the word gay.
It meant something different back then.
And this is the problem.
You change the language and then I guess you can interpret the Constitution differently.
Well, the point is, it seems pretty...
When you start to boil it down, it's pretty obvious that these changes have not been a positive thing.
They're not beneficial by any means.
And I want to just point out to people out there that a Federalist is somebody who is against the Tenth Amendment movement.
Therefore, a national government, a Federalist, and the Republicans have...
Half their party or more are Federalists, and half the Democrats or all of them are Federalists in the sense that they want a big national government to run everything.
And a few people that are part of the Tenth Amendment movement, and you can look it up on Google, there's a number of websites floating around, but it's just beginning, have finally gotten a clue about the fact that we're getting screwed by this other model.
It's no good.
The country is, in fact, as they believed in the 1800s, too big to govern from a central location like that.
And you can see it every time you look around.
I have a jingle.
Because words do matter.
Yeah.
Anyway, that's my little...
That's just a rhyme.
Now I want to belabor the point.
We've talked about it to death.
Well, I will say, constitution or not, there's a reason why we have only two certified listeners in France.
Only two.
I'm sorry.
Gitmo Nation, Stinky Cheese.
I have been, of course, this news is barely trickling through to the United States of Gitmo, because God forbid anyone get an idea, but good on you Frenchies.
The French just said, first of all, the French work less than anybody.
They retire earlier at 60.
None of this 65 bullcrap, 60.
They work 35 hours a week.
They got great wine.
Okay, they got hairy women, but that's okay.
That's part of their culture.
They got great stinky cheese.
They're the last opportunity for a donation.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
I'm about to...
That's okay.
That doesn't matter.
No friends are listening to this show.
Except Fabrice.
Yeah, with Fabrice and one other guy.
Pierre.
And their productivity is relatively high.
Now, so the bankers, of course, came in and screwed everyone over, and now that all this fake debt...
Money that was never there in the first place.
And now the slaves, how can we spin this to get something more out of the slaves?
Oh yeah, we'll call it austerity measures, and we'll tell everybody, and it's happening across all of the United States of Europe.
Everybody has to work two years longer.
You can't retire at your designated age.
Of course, there's a huge amount of people set to retire.
The grayification of the United States of Europe is well in play.
And so the French government Napoleon over there, so cozy, he says, you guys got to raise that pension age from 60 to 62.
And the French go, I don't think so.
You can suck my penis.
We are not doing this.
And they stop immediately.
There's no oil.
There's no gas.
They're not picking up the trash.
And everyone is like, screw you.
And you know what?
They'll cut off your head.
Because we've done it before.
We're going to cut your head off, bitches.
We're going to cut it off.
And the government is afraid of them.
That's what it is.
They're afraid of the people.
And it works.
And I've got to say, if I was in Europe right now, I'd move to France.
Nice timing on the train.
That was amazing.
Nice timing.
All right, Mr.
Hiller.
The train to the concentration camp for you, my friend.
I am just in awe.
This is sacrilegious.
Come on, I'm in awe.
No, the French, they don't put up with crap.
I mean, on the local level, they don't either.
I'm always reminded of the...
Of the wine strike that took place where they had, this was like, we talked about this on the show a couple years ago, when apparently some of the big wine producers were trucking in wine from Spain to be blended with French wine so they could sell plonk in the grocery stores.
And the French, with masks on, a bunch of Zoros, they would hijack these tankers and then just...
Take the guy out and march him into the woods and take his pants off and then dump the wine down the sewer.
That's great.
But this is what we need.
This is where we need to go.
We haven't got no balls in this country.
Well, stop.
I'm going to stop you right there because it is starting, and I think we have a tremendous opportunity.
We have a very, very, very small window here, but I would like to suggest something because dissent matters, by the way.
I think you said on the last show, yeah, what can one guy do?
Well, I think the most emailed story that I received, at least, Was of this express jet pilot who said, you know what?
Screw you.
Actually, he was a first officer, so co-pilot for most people.
He said, screw you.
I'm not going to let you look at me naked.
I'm not going to come to work every single day and be felt up by a bunch of freaks.
I'm just not going to do it.
And stop enough already with the body scanner.
I'm not going to do it.
No way.
And I think...
That we have a tremendous opportunity right now, right here, for everybody to opt out of the body scanner.
That would be a perfect way, because if we don't, right now it's optional.
You're opt out, opt out, opt out, opt out!
It's optional right now, but if we don't, it's going to become mandatory.
Oh, yeah.
Well, now, by the way, we did have one of our listeners ran into just an open website.
I guess TSA had posted a bunch of their memos, and they sent these in.
And it was interesting.
Essentially, it was the responses to people who phone in and complain.
And I'm going to give you some phone numbers and some email addresses where you can do this, by the way, in a minute.
Oh, cool.
Put them in the show notes.
Because they were all blocked out.
It was a Freedom of Information Act document.
By the way, great job to our producer there for finding that.
Yeah, and one of the things that I noticed in there, it was the language that, no, you should...
We apologize to the woman, because these are all people that phoned in after the fact and bitched.
So we apologize to the woman and told her that she had the opportunity to opt out or...
Or opt out and for a pat-down or...
To walk through the metal detector.
Which is patently not true, because I have had this happen, I opted out, there was a metal detector, no, pat down for you, pat down, pat down!
Yeah, so they're either lying to the public about going through the metal detector instead of the pat-down, because it's 100% pat-down.
You're absolutely right.
And a hassle.
They'll make you wait.
They'll make you stand by yourself.
They'll point at you.
They try to humiliate you for not going through the thing because they want to see you naked or whatever the deal is.
We know the thing's not effective.
There's been 85 million flights without an incident, without those idiotic devices.
They can give you cataracts.
They give x-radiation out.
They probably cause cancer and other things.
And I'm sure that the staff there is going to have all kinds of lawsuits, which is going to cost you, the taxpayer, the money at the point where some of these guys who work for the TSA start suing the TSA for their working conditions.
And the whole thing is a fiasco.
And we do have to.
The pilot, by the way, the latest news as it came in tomorrow is that he's probably going to be fired.
Yes.
And I hope to God he sets up a PayPal account.
I will send him money.
I will send him my money and I think we can support this guy.
But the real way to support what he's done is everybody needs to do the same thing.
Opt out.
Because they are now selling this.
And this is the blatant lie.
I got two clips here.
One from a former FAA, the former FAA administer, who, by the way, all pilots hate it, but that's an aside, who actually states with a blatant lie that the naked body scanners speed up the process.
Bull crap.
They slow it down.
It takes longer.
It takes longer than going through the metal detector.
The metal detector is, you're in, you're out.
You're in, you're out.
You're in, you're out.
The naked body scan, you've got to stand there, assume the position with your hands above your head, because that, of course, lifts the breasts up.
That's hornier for the guy backstage.
But then you've got the mainstream media, and this is what you've got to watch out for.
This is why I say we have a very small window, because it's going to become mandatory.
We've got Al Roker.
Al Roker, who is the national weatherman for NBC, who I've worked with on many occasions when I worked at WHTZ 100, everybody, in New York City and did the morning show, the morning zoo.
Hey, everybody!
In the morning!
And this was back when he was really fat.
He's lost all that way.
I think he had one of those stomach things.
Stapled.
Stapled, yeah.
I can tell you, the guy is a dick.
A total jerk-off.
He is an egocentric, uncollegiate...
What's the word?
Uncollegiate.
Yeah, uncollegiate.
Screws over his colleagues.
He's a total jackass.
Really.
I mean, I've worked with this guy.
I'm like, oh my god, I can't believe...
He's like, he hogs everything.
It has to be all about him.
He's a dick, dick, dick.
And so he apparently has some...
How do you really feel?
Oh, I hate this guy.
He's a shithead.
Total dork.
And he has a morning show on the Weather Channel, and he does the story, and listen to how he talks about this incident.
...but it's certainly going to be very pesky, but Al, I love seeing that snow on the map.
It's coming, baby.
All right.
Well, now, here's a question for you.
Should pilots be screened aboard planes the same way as passengers?
Well, there's one pilot who doesn't think so, and last week he stood up for that belief, but it did come with a price.
Evidently they saw my...
This, by the way, is the pilot.
It's the first bit of actual audio, which I think is kind of cool.
Discomfort with the situation as a threat to air transportation security.
Michael Roberts, a pilot for Houston-based Express Jet Airlines, was barred from passing through security at Memphis International Airport just last Friday after he refused a full body scan or a manual pat-down.
The bottom line is I'm not especially comfortable with being Risked by an agent of the federal government every day on my way to work.
Transportation Security Administration officials say pilots are not exempt from the same security screening procedures imposed on other airline travelers.
And in regards to the body scan, TSA states the following.
Advanced imaging technology is optional for all passengers.
Passengers who decline to be screened using advanced imaging technology will receive alternate screening to ensure the safety of the traveling public.
So a couple things here.
One, the incessant use of advanced, advanced, advanced imaging technology.
This is NLP right there.
It's advanced, John.
It's advanced.
It's not going to hurt you.
It's advanced.
Don't worry.
The science is in.
It's all advanced.
And then it's optional.
The optional indeed is not necessarily a pat-down.
It should just be the metal detector.
Anyone who refuses screening will be denied access to the secure area.
You see this as a violation of your privacy, I guess.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Privacy and liberty.
It should be noted that Roberts did pass through a metal detector.
He was briefly detained.
So he passed through the metal detector.
So...
There you go.
The guy was screened.
While TSA officials and airport police interviewed him.
He eventually left the airport peacefully, but has not flown since.
I would just encourage everyone to make the little sacrifice now, before it requires much greater sacrifice down the road, the way things are heading.
Amen to that, my brother.
Now, here's Al Roker.
So he, of course, did the voiceover.
He read the script for the Ministry of Truth.
And now he gets to editorialize with his own little dickwad comments.
What?
I mean, I'm sorry.
That's part of the gig, part of the job.
Then drive a bus, alright?
Then drive a bus.
He went through the metal detector, but it was the issue of the scanning thing, which people have privacy issues with, and then I guess he didn't want the actual physical pat-down.
Too bad.
Too bad.
The rest of us do it.
Too bad.
Too bad.
Slave, shut up, slave.
The rest of us do it.
Too bad.
Too bad.
Too bad for you.
Go drive a bus.
And by the way, pal, you don't have to wait in line like the rest of us are.
So stop whining.
Stop whining, Slade!
What a dork.
Anyway.
What a dork.
I'm so funny.
I'm out.
Coming up in our next half hour, we get the reaction to this story from former FAA administrator.
Right.
Okay, you win today's show.
No, no.
Well, this was sent to us by one of our producers.
But here now, he has the former FAA administrator who actually admits...
That these things are dangerous in her comments.
So she's going to lie.
Oh, really?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
So she's going to lie about it speeding up the process.
Total...
Oops.
I think we just lost a connection here.
Oh, we're back.
Yeah.
So first she's going to lie.
She's going to lie and say, oh, you know, it speeds up the process.
And then she's actually going to say that these things can...
That they penetrate the skin.
Tables.
Tables.
Thanks, Courtney.
We'll see you tomorrow.
Thanks, Courtney.
I'm not Roker.
I'm so incredibly cool.
Well, earlier we told you about a controversy over an express jet pilot who refused to get a body scan pat down at the airport.
Joining us now to discuss this issue and the safety of U.S. air travel is Mary Schiavo, former FAA administrator.
Mary, good to see you.
Oh, I'm good to see you.
Stop, stop, stop.
Yeah, what's up?
This is on the Weather Channel?
Oh, dude, it's a total Ministry of Truth set up.
Are you kidding me?
Unbelievable.
Oh, yeah.
Start it over.
Start the woman over.
Okay.
Mary Schiavo, not Schiavo.
It's weird to pronounce.
The pilots hate her.
She's ruined general aviation.
...this issue and the safety of US air travel is Mary Schiavo, former FAA administrator.
Mary, good to see you again.
Good to see you.
Good to see you again.
Good to see you again after we set everything up last night.
We had a little tete-a-tete about how we're going to tell the slaves what's good for them.
What do you think, this pilot?
Should he have been turned away?
Does Al Roker hang out with former administrators of the FAA regularly, do you think, John?
Is it just...
Hey, good to see you again, Mary.
Good to see you again.
For not going through the pat-down?
Well, he should have been turned away for not going through any screening.
Either the body scan...
Yeah, but he went through the metal detector.
Or the pat-down.
You have to do one or the other.
No, you can do one of three.
Could have refused the body scan and then had the pat-down, and that's open to anyone.
If anyone doesn't want to go through that scanner, they can ask for pat-down.
I mean, so you would agree that pilots should be held to at least the same level of security that the rest of us go through, and some might argue should even have a higher level of security.
Yeah, some would argue.
Who's that sum, Al?
I didn't hear anyone argue that.
Well, that's right, and this issue was addressed many times around 9-11-2001, including when there were reports that there were terrorists who had gotten pilot uniforms, and so the big push was resolved then to make everyone, from the pilots to the people bringing in the drinks for the food bars, go through security.
I'll tell you, you know who walks through security and it beeps and it goes off and it's no problem, they just walk through?
Do you know who?
I've observed this many times.
TSA! The TSA jabronis walk right through.
They're allowed...
They don't have to go through body scans.
They go through the metal detector with their keys, their shoes, their belts, everything.
Check those guys.
Everything gets scanned.
What's your feeling on the full body scans?
Well, you know, I'm for it because it speeds along and certainly I go through it.
Lie.
John, have you ever seen this thing speed everything wrong?
No, there's actually documentation that it slows things down.
Slows things down.
Why?
And I always opt for it, of course, fast.
And I believe the safeguards are there to make sure nobody has pictures of your body.
No, safeguards are there that nobody has pictures of your body.
The machines are designed to store them.
We have documentation.
There are recent reports that perhaps there's more x-ray exposure than they thought.
It may actually penetrate some of the surface skin tissues.
So people who are pregnant, young children, parents can opt to send them around for pad down.
And that's always available.
Okay, let me just process that.
So there are recent reports that it can actually penetrate the skin.
It can cause harm.
So just have your kids touched by the nice TSA man.
Just send your kids around.
They can touch him.
Yeah, they can feel them up and meanwhile, of course, everyone else is getting cataracts.
You know, when you go to the dental office and they have a focused x-ray that goes right through a tooth onto a little x-ray piece of film, they give you lead underwear.
Yeah.
They drop a huge lead thing across your midsection because these x-rays are not safe.
And now they're making everybody go through them.
And then the eyeball, of course, you're going to talk about cataracts.
You're going to talk about cancers.
You're going to talk about all kinds of things from these machines.
And there's going to be a lawsuit at some point.
It's going to cost a taxpayer billions of dollars, possibly.
And we should put a stop to this immediately.
And it's unfortunate that everyone buys in and they have assholes like Roker.
Apparently, they don't think for themselves at all.
They're just reading some party line.
And I have to blame the lobbyists and the people that build these machines.
Obviously, if I was a company that made these machines and I could find some way to get them put into use and bought by the millions of dollars...
If you were a company that made these machines, you would be a former Secretary of Defense.
Because that's who owns the company that makes the L3 scanners.
That's how you get, that's how lobbying works.
Exactly.
You would be a rich, rich man.
We need to start a movement, John.
The movement is, I want to be touched in my crotch by the TSA. I don't want, don't look at my picture, touch it.
Come here, big boy, touch it.
Come on, you want it, touch it.
That's the movement we need to start.
Refuse the body scanners.
Opt out.
It's your constitutional and human right.
Opt out.
And say, I'm opting out.
I'm an opt-outer.
Hi, I'm Adam Curry.
I'm from the opt-out party.
The opt-out party, we don't want to be pictures taken of as naked.
I want TSA to feel my third leg.
The opt-out party says, opt out.
So, by the way, you want to...
The rule is that if you get put aside and they don't feel you up right away and some of these other things, make sure to get the badge number of the TSA person and then file a report with...
With a TSA complaint, a complaint.
And then you should probably carbon copy or CC your congressman or whoever else.
You can just, you know, broadcast it everywhere.
Let me get some of the details on who to send this stuff to.
The chat room is coming up with new slogans.
Touch my package, bitch.
Yeah, the chat room.
Yeah, this is what kind of material we're going to get.
Touch it, touch it, t-shirts.
Touch it, touch it.
Don't scan me, bro.
Okay, here's the TSA.gov.
The Too Damn Naked Party.
What we do.
I love you guys.
Here's a couple of things you can send email.
This is terrible.
Send email to, we'll put this in the show notes, to tsa.ocr-externalcompliance at dhs.gov.
Yeah, I'll remember that.
They always make it so handy and so easy.
Yeah.
The person we want to deal with is Jennifer Carmichael.
She's the director of the Transportation Security Administration, Office of Civil Rights and Liberties.
Touch me, Jennifer.
It's my opt-out right.
And we'll put these in the show notes, but essentially Jennifer is the one behind it all.
So we will put this in the show notes, but please, we have hundreds of thousands of people listening to us.
In the United States of Europe, in many countries, it is already no longer an opt-out.
You cannot opt out in Gitmo Nation Lowlands.
You cannot opt out in Gitmo Nation East.
It is not opt out.
It is opt out in the United States.
They keep telling us it is our right.
Stop being stupid sheep.
If you want to do anything, this is the smallest thing you can do.
It's so small.
Just to say, I'm sorry, I opt out.
And by the way, don't let them get a rise out of you, so to speak.
And by the way, they will ask you, and as part of the process, they're going to ask you why.
Why?
And you'll say, because it gives you cataracts.
The former FAA administrator said it is not safe.
There are reports it is not safe.
And besides that, it's my constitutional and human right not to have you look at me naked.
You may feel me up.
I give you permission to feel my cock.
With the back of your hand.
Please opt out.
Opt out.
You have to opt out.
I'm going to be on this for a long time, maybe not a long time, because the window of opportunity is very small right now.
We have to opt out.
And this will be just like the French, because the lines at the airport will become extremely long, and the populace people will have spoken.
It will be opt out.
And they will not be able to deny it.
This is one that we can actually win.
Yeah, just go to the airport a little earlier.
The fact of the matter is, if you clog up the line by opting out, even though they should just run you through the metal detector, which I think they'll end up doing, there are people missing flights.
My wife, when she was put aside and they wouldn't bring somebody over to pat her down for a half hour, and she still irked about that, she was within five minutes of missing her flight.
And apparently, she had nobody sitting next to her, but I booked that flight and there were people on the map because Virgin Air gives you the opportunity to book the seat yourself and you can see who's sitting where.
There should have been somebody sitting there, but they didn't get through the line.
Right.
And since the airlines are responsible for a lot of the security at the airport, if they start losing passengers and start screwing them up royally because people aren't showing up because they're stuck in security for an hour, then things will change because they'll bitch and moan about it.
There's a number of different things that will happen if we all start to opt out.
It sends a message and, okay, it's not quite like shutting down the gas stations and get Monation Stinky Cheese where they've obviously got their shit together.
It's not quite there yet, but at least you're not a stupid sheeple.
Because, you know, the guy, I was reading the, it's basically a forum post that this Express Jet pilot posted.
And I'm reading through it, and he said, you know, it's amazing.
I'm standing there just watching all these stupid people who all are allowed to opt out, and they're just, whatever.
I'll just shut up, and I'll just go through it.
I'll just do whatever I want to talk about.
It's your right.
Take your right for once.
It's a very small thing to do.
You're not going to get arrested.
You have the right.
You have the right.
Get to the airport early.
You have to be there three hours ahead of time anyway.
Get there early and just slow down the line.
And make your whole family say, I'm opting out.
I'm opting out.
And don't be afraid.
Don't be afraid.
Nothing can happen.
But you have to opt out.
The opt-out party says you must opt out.
So, anyway, nobody's going to opt out.
Don't say, don't be like that, John.
I have a negative attitude.
You think?
You think?
This is what happens when you filter your water and there's no fluoride in it.
You get like me.
I filter my water here.
No fluoride for me.
We have a fluoride denier.
Just before, we're about halfway through the show.
Fluoride denier.
There was a brief moment earlier in the week where the sun was kind of shining.
Actually, I saw a double rainbow.
Oh!
Did you go crazy?
What does it mean?
So I was cruising around in the Saab Niner 3 on Hollywood Boulevard at the top down.
So when you have the top down, you see so much more of the world.
That's what I really like about this car.
And the fact that the top doesn't leak.
I've learned that now, too.
It doesn't leak when it's raining.
So I got the top down.
That's a big deal.
No kidding.
That's one of the things you can't really test when you buy a 10-year-old convertible.
So I got the top down.
I'm waiting to turn right, because you can't really zip out the corner of Hollywood and Highland, North Highland, ready to go up the hills.
And there's a guy on the corner, and what some people would call a bum, And he's holding a sign.
He looks the part, right?
He's got the beard.
He's got kind of the ragtag clothes on.
He's holding a piece of a cardboard box and there's writing on it.
And the writing is something to the effect of, the recession is a scam.
Don't believe it.
Bush, Cheney, Obama, they're all the New World Order, the elites.
They're screwing us over.
Don't buy into it.
And I'm thinking to myself, wow.
I am only two weeks of donations away from being that guy.
I swear to God.
Two weeks of donations.
I am so happy.
I think you are that guy.
We're so close.
When I see these guys, by the way, I immediately grab one of my little cameras and interview them.
Well, I was in the car, but actually, he seems like an interesting guy to talk to, no doubt about it.
They always are.
Yeah.
And nobody from the major media ever talks to him.
A lot of them are crazy.
Unless they need a kook.
Let's get some kook over here.
Let's get a kook.
So...
Anyway, so this is what we do.
This is what John and I do.
John, I think you write some columns.
You may make some money in some other ways, but this is pretty much our...
Would you say this is your main source of income?
This is a primary source of income.
Yeah, for me it is the source of income right now.
Big App Show is great.
Everyone loves it.
Very little money.
One of these days it'll make money.
Yeah, I hope so.
I'll tell you if it does, but holy moly.
So let's thank some people that helped us out this week, beginning with the person who only wants to be called by the name Noah, N-O-A. Yes, Noah is one of our No Agenda groupies, though.
Yeah.
From Amsterdam, $71.
Michael Kearns in Platte City, Missouri, depending on what part of the state you're from.
6969, you need to find something on my No Agenda site.
Use No Agenda Search.
Interesting.
Okay.
I've used the new categories as topic links, which are very popular.
I've got a list of all the No Agenda sites and a research tool.
Thanks for mentioning it.
Let's check it out, No Agenda search.
Miles of tinyempire.com, Phoenix, Arizona, 55, Double Nicholas on a Dime, 55, 10.
Tell your audience at the social media unconference, PodCamp, AZ. It's the weekend of November 20th and 21st in Phoenix.
They can vote on sessions they want to attend at podcampaz.org.
I've never wanted to go to one of those podcamps.
I went to the WordPress thing in San Francisco a few years back.
Yeah, but that's different.
That's different.
The PodCamps, which is about podcasts, it's always about how do we make money.
And the bottom line is, this is the only way.
What we're doing, I don't know anyone who's as successful with podcasting as we are.
I just don't.
And it's relative.
Well, Leo.
True.
I take it back.
But Leo does 25 shows and he's working 24-7.
I mean, we concentrate on one show.
So there's a difference there.
But he does make quite a bit of money.
But he's the only one besides us that makes money and he's got, you know, he has a huge audience.
He's got people working for Kibbles and Bits.
Joseph Costello, we want to thank him.
Pittston, Pennsylvania.
Double nickels on the dime.
Here's 5510 for karma while traveling.
I'm not sure if you or Adam have noticed this alarming trend, but in the last five years or so, my wife and I have been having the hardest time finding a clean, well-maintained hotel room.
The last few years, we've had Medi-Cal waste blow onto our balcony on a cruise ship entering New York Harbor.
Yeah.
With no heat.
That's distressing.
We found a bloody mattress in our room at Disney.
Had boogers on the wall in Marriott.
Found used feminine products in a casino hotel room.
Pulled back the sheets in another casino hotel in Atlantic City to find some bodily fluids in a bed that obviously had not been changed.
And last weekend, had a used diabetic test strip, a broken TV, no air conditioning, and a hole in the ceiling of a Sheraton suite.
We always stay in premium hotels and pay hundreds of dollars per night and Maybe we're just being too picky or possibly it's hotels getting back at us for not being green and hanging up the towels for second use.
Hold on, let me give you guys some karma.
You've got karma.
So we hope you're going to have a nice room on your upcoming cruise.
Oh, that's disgusting.
Yeah, totally.
But you know, now that he mentions it, it's possible that things have deteriorated in the hotel and restaurant, or the hotel business in particular.
Yeah, well, they're not paying people jack anymore.
There's a down economy, it affects everybody, and I guess they're just getting careless.
I don't know.
David Pugh in North Canton, Ohio, with double nickels on the dime.
Yeah.
He doesn't like George Clooney.
No.
Read the whole note!
He says, here's a little cache of that cold-hearted Mitch with his 14-inch strap-on.
That's not an opinion.
That's science.
And science is one cold-hearted bitch with a 14-inch strap on.
And, of course, that is from the show Dexter.
Dexter.
Yeah.
And Adam loves it.
It says more about him than the clip.
Steve Bottoms, Reno, Nevada, 5150, which is about insanity.
He's looking for some good karma in Nevada to protect us from Reed and Angle, both, which is interesting.
We have a few of our regular knighthood donors coming in, Ricky Pierce, Laurie Corpy, and Jordan Wyatt.
Gave us $50 from Invercargill, Southland, New Zealand.
He wants a birthday mention.
Yeah, it's coming up.
We have that one done, okay.
And he wants veganacious.com and quotesonslavery.com.
What?
And some other things I can't pronounce.
Go to quotesonslavery.
He's the vegan in residence.
Kelly Spears, Brook Park, Ohio.
She sent an email to Adam.
Really?
Because Adam made a big stink about the fact that I lose a lot of these emails that come in special to me, and so he wanted the email sent to him.
She sent you one.
Adam, read it for us.
Okay.
I shall read you the note from Kelly Spears.
Hold on a second while I give myself some karma.
You've got karma.
Well, he's looking for the note.
It says right there, don't mention my name.
I didn't mention his name.
I said from Oslo, Norway.
Okay, here it is.
I know this is close to showtime, but if you could please give a birthday shout-out to my amazing husband.
So we've got it on the list.
I forwarded it into the administration.
It's all set.
I've got the note right here.
I know what I'm doing.
Uh-huh.
Uh-huh.
Hi, John and Adam.
Would you send a birthday green to the lovely and beautiful Hilde Marie in Oslo, Norway.
It's turning 29 on October 2nd.
Is she on the list, too?
Yeah, we've got everybody on the list.
Okay.
Audra Bruno, Raleigh, North Carolina.
$50 donation for her husband, Greg Jones, who listens regularly but probably hasn't donated yet.
Oh, that would make him?
Douchebag!
Exactly.
Albert Vischer in Singapore.
$50.
Longtime douchebag.
Albert Fischer, I think it is.
That would be probably a Dutch name.
Longtime douchebag in need of karma opening my eyes every show.
Albert from...
You've got karma.
There you go.
Some karma for you.
I actually thought he needed a de-douching.
We can give him that too.
You've been de-douched.
Frederick Borrego and this little logo thing is right on top of his last name.
I can't ask him.
And now it's something eel.
Well, that sucks.
Can we get rid of this one?
No, it's Escam.
E-S-C-A-M. You can move the little item.
Hold on.
Escamille, it says.
Oh, I don't have this last part of his name.
Yes, Escamille.
I'm glad I moved the little icon.
Escamilla.
Is that what it is?
Is that the full thing?
Yeah, Escamilla.
You're right.
Escamilla.
Oh, I had to expand the cell.
Hmm.
Cotero, Queretaro, someplace in the middle of nowhere, Mexico.
Thank you very much.
We don't have too many Mexican listeners.
$50.
Birthday mention for Thursday's show.
This is a gift donation to my friend, Paola.
Let me just get into it.
We can do all these.
It's your birthday, birthday.
I know what you're doing.
Alright, so first of all, we have to say happy birthday to a brand new knight who will be knighting in a moment, Sir Thomas Nussbaum, whose birthday was on the 13th, the eve of the dawning of Aquarius of the UFOs showing up nationwide.
I mean, I'm sorry, the Facebook kids floating balloons.
Jordan Wyatt turns 23 on the 24th of October.
Hilda Marie of Oslo, happy birthday.
You turn 29 on the 22nd of October from an anonymous donor.
And Paolo Valencia-Sausen's birthday is on the 22nd of October.
You're being wished a very happy birthday from Fritz Borrego and from your buddies here, Noah J. Okay, yeah, we might as well get right into it.
We would like to invite up to the podium Adam Burkyle and Thomas Nussbaum.
Neil!
Both of you.
John, pull out your 12-incher there.
The Aqua Buddha.
Pull out the Aqua Buddha.
Adam Bergpile, of course, outstanding achievements with the Pocket No Agenda app available on the iPhone.
Your donations have equaled over the required $1,000.
And Thomas Nussbaum, both of you are now knights of the No Agenda Roundtable.
Please join us here for Hookers and Blows, Sir Thomas and Sir Adam.
And of course, we encourage everyone to help us out with the show so I don't become that guy in the corner of Hollywood and Highland.
And it's Dvorak.org slash NA. Of course, you can always go to NoAgendaShow.com and you can find the donation links there.
Or should we be blocked in certain places, go to ChannelDvorak.com slash NA. And we don't have any special promotions going on as far as...
No.
11-11 is coming up, so maybe I'll just do a quickie.
11-11 is coming up.
11-11 is coming up.
And the best thing you can do, by the way...
By the way, 12-12 comes up after that.
It's getting more people to listen.
There's a choir out there.
We need to be preaching to it.
That's the most important thing.
Yes, we need the choir at the attendance of the show.
We really do.
Dvorak.org slash N.A. ChannelDvorak.com slash N.A. And NoAgendaShow.com. You can help us out.
We want to thank everybody who donates $5 on a subscription basis, $33.33, and $30 on a subscription basis.
Also, there's a number of $42 subscribers, and we appreciate their help.
Big time.
Big time.
Here's an interesting story.
It just comes in from one of our producers.
Just got it in the email.
I didn't know this happened.
It happened, I guess, two days ago.
But I happened to have seen this show.
I was watching The O'Reilly Factor, and I have a couple of clips from it, because O'Reilly seems to have gone into propaganda mode for the government.
But Juan Williams was on the show.
Yes.
Who is an NPR... I guess, a correspondent.
And he was on O'Reilly's show, and they were talking about the Joy Behar thing, which is all O'Reilly's been talking about the entire last week.
Well, of course.
That's why the whole thing happened.
The View needed more ratings, and O'Reilly needed more ratings.
And Juan Williams just casually mentioned, he's talking about the Muslims, they bombed us on the 9-11.
And Juan says, you know, I don't think the way you described it was accurate, but I have to be frank with you.
Sometimes when I get on an airplane and there's a bunch of Muslims, I get a little concerned.
Can I just say that that is...
I have the clip.
Do you have the actual clip of him speaking?
Because he said something else, and it's words matter.
Hit it.
Okay.
Listen to the very beginning of what he says, because that puts his statement into context.
Before we go into it, the end result is NPR has fired him because he said this.
The Ministry of Truth, because he wasn't on message.
But listen to what he says at the very beginning of his statement on O'Reilly.
Look, political correctness can lead to some kind of paralysis where you don't address reality.
So that is the key contextual statement.
Political correctness, listen again.
Political correctness can lead to some kind of paralysis where you don't address reality.
I mean, look Bill, I'm not a bigot.
You know the kind of books I've written about the civil rights movement in this country.
But when I get on a plane, I've got to tell you, if I see people who are in Muslim garb, And I think, you know, they're identifying themselves first and foremost as Muslims.
I get worried.
I get nervous.
Now, I remember also that when that Times Square bomber was at court, I think this was just last week, he said the war with Muslims, America's war with Muslims, is just beginning.
First drop of blood.
I don't think there's any way to get away from these facts.
So this is the thing that I found curious, is that no one is mentioning that he contextualized his statement by saying political correctness can create a social paralysis.
No, they didn't.
And sure, the NPR people took the whole thing, though, and paid attention to it and said, this guy's not for us.
We can't go along with a guy who's, you know, normal.
I mean, by the way, NPR, which grabs nothing but money from people, and this is the kind of...
And not just people from corporations, big corporations, big banks, big agriculture, all advertisers...
And, you know, if anybody out there listens to this show and listens to NPR and you give them money, don't give them money.
They got plenty of money.
And it's a propaganda operation.
Obviously, they wouldn't have fired Juan Williams over some casual comment.
You know what I think?
I know what you're considering here.
I believe that the real reason they fired him...
It's because he's black.
That would be great.
I believe it's because he appears on Fox.
Yeah, no, that's totally it.
Actually, I have their official statement here.
NPR has terminated the contract of longtime news analyst Juan Williams after remarks he made on the Fox News channel about Muslims.
That is their official statement right from the Ministry of Truth website known as npr.org.
And then it goes into blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Williams' presence on the largely conservative and often contentious primetime talk shows of Fox News has long been a sore point with NPR news executives.
It says it right there in their official statement.
Oh, well that's good.
At least they're honest.
And he's black.
I think it says it right there at the bottom.
It says he's black, too?
No, it doesn't.
But they've always been pissed about it.
But meanwhile, I don't have a clip of it, but NPR has all kinds of programs like How to Speak Teabagger and stuff like that, which is funny, by the way.
But they're obviously shills.
The whole organization is a mouthpiece.
It's Ministry of Truth.
Yeah, it's pretty obvious.
They're not going to give you the straight scoop on anything.
They don't have a show called How to Speak Teabagger.
I'm going to defend Sarah Palin for a moment, which I always find fun.
Before you do that, let's play a short clip.
Just to show you the hate-filled ideologue, Joy Behar, who makes this crazy remark on her show.
Just play the Joy Behar clip and let me ask the question afterwards.
Hold on, I'll watch this show.
Anyway, 76-year-old Florence Henderson.
She tangled off into the sunset yesterday.
She was voted off.
Now explain this to me.
Why is Florence Henderson off, or one of you, and Bristol Palin who came out and the guerrilla still there?
I have to...
Okay, so why does Behar, who's doing this quasi-political slash entertainment show, have such a deep hatred of the Palins, and particularly, in this case, Bristol, that she brings up this value judgment that 76-year-old Florence Henderson, who was on the show as a dancer.
Who, by the way, is like...
It's almost like she has Parkinson's.
She can barely walk.
It's sad.
I mean, it's really sad.
They're taking advantage of the poor woman.
Yeah, who's a sweet person.
But meanwhile, according to Behar, she should have been kept on the show, I guess, to be ridiculed further, as opposed to Palin, who's obviously on...
And here's what bothers me about these kinds of comments.
Behar has to know...
By the way, Behar's really old.
She's almost 70 herself, which I think is why she was defending Henderson.
Behar has to know that these shows are rigged.
They have the little disclaimer at the end of the show.
John, you're blowing, you're bursting my bubble.
It's rigged?
At the end of the show, they even say it's rigged.
They say the judges have one thing to do with it, the people call and have something else, but the producers have the final say on the results.
Of course.
Of course.
Because they want ratings, and so the show is rigged.
Dude, they've got Jennifer Grey, an actual dancer, on the show.
Like, who do you think is going to win?
And it was, well, but she's 50.
She looks amazing.
Her body is so great.
The whole show is meant to rope in female viewers, and they use every single trick in the book.
And Jennifer Grey, of course she's going to win.
She's a dancer.
Ever see the movie Dirty Dancing?
I mean, come on.
She's a great dancer.
She's been training her ass off.
Of course she's going to win.
Duh!
And, yeah, they use every dirty trick, including Marie Osmond passing out.
Yeah, it's like anything we can use.
So I think what's going on here...
I think what's going on is there is an intense hatred that is also being manufactured against beautiful women.
And you can agree or disagree, Sarah Palin is kind of hot looking.
She's got that kind of wanton librarian look.
I've always liked it.
I don't want her as president.
I would not vote for her.
I did read her book.
I've got nothing against the woman.
She's a pretty eloquent speaker compared to a lot of these jabronis we've got on the Hill.
But you just say Sarah Palin to anybody.
The political correct thing to do is go, roll your eyes and go, oh God, not that woman.
And it dumbfounds me.
Sometimes I do it just to piss people off.
Sometimes.
Just throw in Sarah Palin.
Sarah Palin, she looks kind of nice.
Are you crazy?
And really intelligent people.
Have you ever listened to what she has to say?
So she does a speech, and this is just to show you how it works.
And we're all slaves.
And by the way, the Tea Party Express is all a big hijack.
I don't believe in any of this crap.
It's a total hijack.
It's a total crap.
And John, you predicted she was going to become the leader of the Tea Party.
It's a total hijack.
But, here's what she said in the speech, and then you need to go look at the hashtag 1773 on Twitter.
Here's the speech.
Listen, caution though.
Let me caution you a little bit of a come to Jesus meeting time right now.
Caution that in this battle before November 2nd, don't be thinking that we've got victory for America in the bag yet, okay?
We can't let up.
We can't get cocky about this.
No dancing with the neighbors yet, okay?
Okay?
We can't party like it's 1773, not yet.
So everyone's like, what an idiot!
1776!
Doesn't she know 1776 is when we party?
What a stupid idiot!
What a douchebag!
I mean, Twitter is filled with it!
Whereas if anyone actually just went to Wikipedia and said what happened in 1773, that is actually the date where the laws for the tea imports were passed, and this is what started the Boston Tea Party.
This is why the reference to 1773 is in.
But everyone is so on board with real hate for Sarah Palin, Yeah, well, it's the same thing with Behar, who hates Sarah Palin, and then taking you out on Bristol.
Exactly!
It's, like, unbelievable, and this is...
Just check yourself, okay?
Check yourself when you're doing this.
And everyone's...
Just try it.
Just say to someone, hey, Sarah Palin's kind of interesting.
Oh, my God!
Sarah Palin!
Oh, my God, Sarah Palin!
It's true, exactly.
And that's what it sounds like.
And why don't you go through the body scanner while you're at it?
Okay, just go ahead.
Just walk on through there.
That's fine.
Hey, John, there's one thing we cannot forget, because this news came out just at the beginning of the week, and we're already tweeting about Sarah Palin's gaffe missing 1776 by three years.
uh very important news uh from sources who say maybe but it's could be true the most news in the morning most news in the morning everybody's got to be cnn in the morning cnn it's american i did speak to a very senior nato official with first-hand knowledge of the latest information the First-hand knowledge of the latest information.
Let me read the script.
We've got the information.
...assessment that the alliance has.
And he says, look.
He says, look.
Look.
Just look.
Shut up, slave.
Look.
Information, the latest assessment that the Alliance has.
And he says, look, Osama bin Laden, Dr.
Ayman al-Zawahi, number two.
He's number two!
He needs a foam hand that says, I'm number two!
Yeah, we need more foam fingers.
Foam fingers.
I'm number two!
Can't even pronounce the guy's name.
Osama al-Babaka al-Akala-Haivi.
He's number two, just so you know.
In case you missed the name, because Osama bin Laden has been programmed into your brain.
Number two.
They're not living in a cave anywhere.
They're not living in a cave.
In case you thought he was living in a cave.
Uh-uh.
The feeling here is that both of them are...
The feeling, John.
The feeling?
Oh, the feeling.
The feeling here.
Uh-huh.
That both of them are across the border in northwest Pakistan.
That they are not far apart from each other.
They're not together.
That would be a...
They're lovers.
It's number one and number two.
They're not together.
That would be a security breach, is what you're going to say.
They're in the different trailer parks.
Of Security risk for them.
Security risk for them.
They may not have drifted too far apart.
He says, ask me to draw a circle.
Like synchronized dance skating?
They haven't drifted too far apart from each other?
It's like, that's a violation.
Security violation.
...on a map, and here's what I tell you.
That Osama bin Laden may at some point have ranged as far as very north in the federal territory, the tribal area...
It's the tribal area.
John, it's the tribal area.
I think we should go send some drones in there because there's nothing but hostile tribes in the tribal area.
Hear that?
Near the Chinese border.
That's why Pakistan is so important to us.
Pakistan up near the Chinese border, but there's a good bet, if you will, that he's in a place called the Karam Valley.
A good bet, if you will.
What kind of reporting is this?
A good bet, if you will.
This is like the worst reporting ever.
A good bet, if you will.
Just a bunch of speculation.
Why don't they call this speculation hour?
A good bet, if you will.
We can do that.
I think he's, let me think, he's in northern...
Tribal area.
Tribal area, roaming around.
Actually, it's right near, whatever it is, it's always near Tora Bora, because it sounds so cool.
I love saying Tora Bora.
Called the Karam Valley.
Rugged, square miles of very rugged territory, inhabited by very fierce tribal elements.
Fierce tribal elements.
Elements.
Hello, this is element number one.
Element number two, how are you doing in your fierce tribal area?
How are you?
Well, I'm here in my fierce tribal area.
This is number two.
I'm in the fierce tribal area.
It's square miles of nothing but fierce tribal areas.
What's so interesting is the Karam Valley is right across the border from Tora Bora.
It's so interesting.
Oh, fascinating.
It's right across the border from Tora Bora.
Where Osama bin Laden fled Afghanistan back in 2001.
Oh, right.
But then, of course, the script goes on because, you know, this info babe, she can't just, like, say thanks for that report.
Gee, did you actually talk to anyone?
No, she has her own script to read.
So if we do find, capture, or kill bin Laden, what is the feeling there in Afghanistan among military leaders?
How big of an impact will it actually make in the fight against al-Qaeda?
So let me see.
We're there to find bin Laden, but if we find, capture, or kill, will anyone give a crap?
Will anyone give a crap?
I like that.
Will anyone give a crap?
Well, you know, when you're here in Afghanistan, nobody even really talks about bin Laden unless you ask someone what the latest information is.
Hey, hey, hey, brother.
Can you drop a dime on bin Laden?
I need to ask you some information.
Why would they be yakking about bin Laden all day?
She says, well, when you're here in Pakistan, nobody's talking about bin Laden.
Of course they're not.
No, no, she's in Afghanistan.
Oh, Afghanistan.
I'm sorry.
But either one.
I mean, who's going to be chatting about...
Hey, did you see the latest about Osama?
Hey, did you read the paper?
There was something about Osama in Tora Bora.
Now, listen, because this is the message.
Here comes the message.
The message is, oh, Afghanistan is all wrong.
We need to get out of here.
We need to go kick Pakistan's ass.
That's what this is about.
Listen.
Here, there is a feeling that...
A feeling?
Because I have a feelingometer.
Another feeling?
There's a lot of feelings going on in this reporting.
I know how to get my feelings right.
Right now, the equation is this.
They have to step up military attacks, which the alliance, led by the U.S., has been doing.
More airstrikes, more ground attacks...
Pressure the Taliban and the insurgents to come to the negotiating table, the peace table, with the Afghan government.
That that is the only way to resolve this and that they have to step up the ability of the Afghan government to deal with this problem in this country.
There is declining support in many NATO capitals in the United States amongst the citizens.
For the war, a lot of weary people nine years in.
They have to get the Afghan government to take charge here.
That's going to be the way U.S. and NATO troops can finally go home.
Okay, so what I'm reading into this message, which clearly is not a report, it is written by the Pentagon, and it's interpreted by Ditses.
By the way, she looks pretty official there in Afghanistan.
Barbara, whatever her name is.
Barbara Schill.
My interpretation is the message is going to be Bin Laden is now in Pakistan.
We have to focus on Pakistan.
By the way, we won't actually leave Afghanistan because, you know, there's lithium in them hills and we need us some lithium.
We need all kinds of...
Yeah, for the poppies.
Oh, yep.
Oh, my goodness.
You want to talk poppies?
John, the most amazing poppy news.
Two reports.
Two reports.
First of all, we all know that the United States military transport planes are flying the heroin in.
Flying, the poppies are being protected by all the troops who are just surrounding the fields, not burning them, but protecting them, because, you know, it's good money.
So, fast forward to Utah.
So cheap and easy to get that it's a drug of choice for Utah teenagers, and authorities say drug dealing in Utah has reached a dangerous new level of sophistication.
Utah law enforcement officers say they're alarmed at how cheap heroin has become and the savvy way it's being marketed to youngsters.
Hey, they're alarming how cheap it's become and the savvy way in which it's being marketed to youngsters.
Savvy.
It's savvy.
Listen up.
That was news to me.
Oxycontin is its synthetic counterpart?
Yeah, I think so, generally speaking.
So what does OxyContin use for then?
Pain.
Right, and is there any heroin in it?
No.
I think it's completely synthetic, but it's based on various opiates in terms of the structures.
Well, anyway, so the good news is the kids are no longer on the OxyContin because, you know, that costs, like, money to make and it goes to the wrong people.
We want them on heroin, so we've come up with some outstanding marketing ideas to sell our heroin to the children, to our own kids that we're shipping in from Afghanistan.
In Utah, yes.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, and by the way, Utah's not the worst.
Not by a long shot.
And it can be cheaper than either marijuana or spice.
Spice, John.
What spice?
Have you ever had any spice?
What spice?
Pepper?
I don't know.
I don't know what spice is.
I've never heard of the drug spice.
Well, they're plugging it in Utah.
It's spice.
Spice is us.
Spice stocks are up in Utah.
I have no idea what it is.
I will ask my daughter.
Somebody in the chat room must know.
What is spice?
In the last 12 years, you know, I've struggled with addiction to heroin.
If your family's not strong, it could destroy it.
Nothing about the fight against heroin is fair.
The relationships it destroys, the things people find themselves doing to get their next fix.
And now, the slick marketing and delivery techniques used by dealers.
In the Salt Lake Valley, the average age is young adults, 16 to 23 years old.
According to the Sandy Police Department, the system along the Wasatch Front makes getting drugs easier than ever.
A buyer calls a dispatcher, who in turn sets up a meeting between the buyer and a runner.
This is so savvy.
It's called drug dealing, you dick.
It's like, that's so savvy.
But wait, there's more.
Those runners are supplied by re-uppers throughout the day.
In the end, a buyer can pick up heroin at a location near them within 20 minutes.
If you've never seen the movie American Gangster with Denzel Washington, you need to see this, which is based on a true story.
This is exactly the story.
It's the same script.
It's the same story.
Very sophisticated network.
It gets shipped in on military transport.
At that time, it was being shipped in coffins.
The movie is a true story.
Yes.
Let's emphasize that.
And, by the way, Spice appears to be a synthetic pot.
Blame-o.
Almost like the police do.
You tell us where you are, where you need the help, and we go to you and help you.
Almost like the police.
I won't say it, but you'd almost think they might be involved.
They've taken that and molded it, unfortunately, into a criminal enterprise.
It's easier than finding someone to buy you alcohol.
It's easier than finding weed.
That's why we want you to stop drinking alcohol.
That's why we're taking your drink away.
That's neo-prohibition.
What these clips prove is that what you and I have been saying for the last...
Two years, at least, or more, that this whole thing is leading to this.
In fact, last week we went through a bunch of these anti-drug issues, organizations, NGOs, and government organizations, and they never talk about heroin, because apparently the U.S. government is pushing people to heroin.
Get on the age.
The whole thing is, it's so far out.
The basic, our basic thesis here, that is almost incredible.
And I think most people are just, you know, well, that's probably, yeah, that's pretty funny.
Those two guys are, they're hilarious.
The Dvorak and Curry, that's pretty funny what they think.
Yeah, it's not, it's not, can't be it.
It's about terrorism.
Literally getting our kids to ride the H train.
The white pony, everybody.
Jump on board.
We are rocking the H in Utah.
It's easier than getting someone to buy a pack of cigarettes.
The trend of teen addicts has become a nationwide problem.
In the Washington towns of Stanwood and Kamano Island, 42 students are currently being treated for heroin addiction.
The price is cheap, sometimes as low as $5.
Some dealers also offer incentives.
Buy 10 balloons of heroin and get one free.
Yeah, it's called marketing, bitches.
This is terrible.
The quality is also up.
Heroin in the 1970s was about 3% pure.
Today, it's around 60%.
How can that be?
But we're in Afghanistan.
Just stop this.
How can it be?
Cheap, quick, and convenient.
Not a fair fight at all.
All right.
So, unbelievable, right?
Unbelievable.
You don't have more.
I have something even crazier.
So what can we do with all these people jacked up on H? What can we do?
How can we turn this into even more benefit for us?
John, you and I, we're running the evil empire.
We're like, okay, we've got all the kids on heroin, right?
Because we make more money on heroin.
It kind of supports our whole effort over there in Afghanistan.
Yeah, and the CIA gets funded.
Everyone's happy.
What can we...
Do you think we could like...
Get us some kids?
Can we get us some babies?
Some babies?
So we can sacrifice some babies?
Can we get us some babies, John?
Can we do this?
I don't know.
Can we get us some babies?
I think we can get us some babies.
Here's how.
Here's a story that will likely outrage a lot of moms.
Elizabeth Mort gave birth to a beautiful baby girl.
But a day later, child services and police in Pennsylvania came to her home and took her baby from her.
Hey, John, I figured out a way to get us some babies.
Stand by.
It's a brilliant plan.
All because of a bagel.
Liz Mort says she never saw it coming.
I was shocked.
I was at a loss of words.
I just started crying and crying.
Child Protective Services in Pennsylvania was at her doorstep taking her one-day-old baby because they thought Liz was abusing drugs.
Someone was saying that, oh, we're CYS and we found something in your system.
And at that time, I had never even heard of it before.
And they said, we have to take custody of your child.
And I was like, what?
What are you talking about?
Jameson Hospital in Newcastle tests mothers of newborns for drugs.
State law allows it.
But what the hospital didn't consider more closely was poppy seeds.
Yeah, I heard this story when I forgot.
I would have clipped it, too.
This story was from, I guess, about a week ago.
It's a disgusting story.
By the way, is that the same voice?
That's on the Utah story?
Is that the same?
It sounds like the exact same person.
Let me listen to the other Utah.
Utah, Sandy police say all jurisdictional boundaries are...
Let me now hear her.
Opium...
Wait, I mean, it sounds like the same woman.
Hold on.
So this is the Utah woman's report.
...or fight at all.
Okay, and here's the other report.
State law allows it, but what...
Is that the same woman?
No, it's a little ballsier.
So anyway, she says she ate a bagel with poppies.
So first of all, what are they doing testing pregnant women for heroin?
I don't know.
To take the babies!
Yeah, apparently, yeah.
Because there's a law that if you...
I don't know about the poppy seed excuse, but it's probably...
The poppies you buy commercially to make poppy seed cake and the rest of it are opium poppy seeds.
Yeah.
A lot of people don't realize that.
In fact, in the olden days, before they irradiated these things, you used to be able to buy a box and throw them in your backyard, you'd have a bunch of poppies.
Yeah, because poppies grow.
It's great stuff.
Anyway, so let's just finish up this story.
I'll fast forward so you can find out what happened after they took her child away.
And I just cry half the time.
So far, no lawsuit has been filed.
The ACLU says it's trying to figure out the next step.
Liz did get her baby back, but it took five days for the hospital and child protective services to determine that she was a fit.
Crap.
Hey, we got a refunder.
The worst part about that is the mom should be with the baby for those first five days.
Of course.
For various psychological...
And who knows?
They plugged the kid full of RFID dust.
Who knows what they did?
We got to...
Ah, shit, John.
We got to refund this kid.
We got to refund her.
We got to bring this one back.
Just when we thought we had one.
Yeah, it's crazy.
It's crazy.
And you're right, John.
You're like, ah, Kareem Dvorak, a bunch of idiots.
But here you go.
This is it.
It's happening everywhere.
Get people off of alcohol and get them onto heroin.
And don't forget, we also have to keep the marijuana initiative from passing.
Yes.
So the best way to do that is just to say it's not going to pass and keep people from voting.
Now, the propaganda started to spew from the O'Reilly show about this.
And if you take just within one show, he actually hit the topic twice.
With not just the short clips.
I mean, he went on and on and on about pot and everyone's stoned and they're not going to vote because they're stoned.
So let me play a couple of clips from O'Reilly in this regard.
Part one is him talking to Rasmussen, the pollster.
Which is pretty much a right-wing poll organization, right?
He's not one of the more accurate pollsters.
He's not as bad as Zogby.
Whatever.
Yeah.
All right?
Ready?
Hit it.
Now, do you believe that the marijuana initiative on the ballot is going to take more liberal people out to vote?
Is that going to be a factor in the race?
I don't think it's going to be a huge factor.
No, really?
I really don't.
First of all, the numbers show it's very close on the election.
I think it'll be voted down.
I don't think the legalization of marijuana is going to...
And you're right.
I would agree with you on that because most people who are undecided vote against these initiatives.
Right.
And you've got to take into effect that a lot of people who want legalization of marijuana will be so stoned they won't be able to get out to the polls.
Right.
Yeah, plus the fact that, you know what?
Have you been to Humboldt County?
I mean, whoa.
And while it's not legal, by the way, they're still smoking away.
All right.
Brown and Whitman.
Brown is widening his lead over Whitman, right?
Okay, so that's that.
So he makes it clear that, you know, and this is kind of the message to his listeners, you know, this should be voted down, but he didn't make it strong enough.
So later in the show, like a lot later, he has John Stossel on, who's the libertarian at Fox, who kind of has a marginal show that nobody watches.
On Saturday.
It's actually on Thursday night now.
But it's still something nobody watches because it's not promoted.
It's like the token libertarian on Fox.
He's the token true libertarian is this guy.
And he won't defend himself.
He won't defend the pot thing because he can't speak up against O'Reilly.
O'Reilly really rules the roost.
Beck has the best numbers, I think.
But O'Reilly runs the show and he's the top dog.
So he has to revisit the topic.
So here we go.
This is number two?
Yeah.
You want pot, and it's going to lose in California, as you say, Rasmussen and I are two brilliant men.
You say?
Yeah.
You want to make a little bet on it?
This is what we're doing wrong, John.
We have to say we're brilliant.
Hey, we're two brilliant men here.
We're brilliant.
We're brilliant.
We're brilliant guys.
Sure, ten bucks.
Ten bucks.
Here he is.
$10,000 to a charity of the other person's choice.
Now you're talking.
Okay.
I say Prop 19, legalization of marijuana, gets voted down in California.
You, who wants it, you're not a pothead, are you?
I refuse to talk about my personal behavior.
But the reason I'm against it is because of the children.
I mean, I just...
I know it's an addictive substance, like tobacco.
Marijuana is...
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
I know it's an addictive substance just like tobacco?
No.
That's what he said.
No.
He knows it, by the way, because he's brilliant.
Not true.
Just not true.
It's not true.
No, it's an out-and-out lie.
I mean, I kicked a 10-year...
20-hour-a-day marijuana habit.
I get up in the middle of the night, take a hit.
I kicked it in one day, cold turkey.
I'm still smoking tobacco.
Addictive substance like tobacco.
Marijuana is exactly as addictive as tobacco, and if you smoke it all the time, you get into serious troubles.
Yeah, I'm in serious trouble.
I have no job.
I'm standing on the corner of Hollywood and Highland holding a sign.
I'm in serious trouble because I smoked it all the time.
People shouldn't do that.
People shouldn't get into serious trouble.
But making it illegal is a war on our own people.
A war on our own?
What does that mean?
It means the police are breaking people's door down.
It means adults are not allowed to make their own decisions.
But you want heroin and cocaine legalized.
See, that's how crazy you are.
I think the honest intellectual argument is to say if you're an adult, you should be free to do what you want to your own body.
And the burden of proof ought to be on the government before they take that freedom away.
I tell you what, if those people were not allowed to go outside, I would agree with you.
But as soon as they go outside, it gets to a public safety issue.
Well, we have a solution.
Get everybody a scram bracelet, and you can do whatever you want in your house, and if you stray from your prison, from your cell, then we can go pick you up and kill you.
There's a solution right there that O'Reilly doesn't see this.
It's amazing.
Well, people drink and go outside.
But you saw what happened in San Francisco when they did all these medical marijuana things, that the dope, the hard users took the marijuana and sold it to the kids.
I mean, that's what's going to happen if you have legalization of marijuana.
There are only dealers because it's illegal.
No, that's not true.
Even if you legalize pot in California, nobody under 18 is going to be able to buy it legally, so they're going to be buying it and selling it to the kids.
It'll be easier to police just the way selling beer to kids is easier.
It's not.
It's going to lead to more problems among children.
All right, Stossel, $10,000 on Prop 19, right?
So what Stossel should have done, but of course he doesn't, is he should say, look at Portugal.
Portugal, where they decriminalized all drugs ten years ago, including hard drugs.
And it's like, everyone's great, no problem.
We're all getting high indoors.
Yeah, the numbers all go down.
All the numbers go down.
It's beautiful.
It's a beautiful thing.
And no one...
What is Stossel that he's not bringing that up?
He's another shill.
He's another douchebag.
Yeah, no, and I think O'Reilly should be ashamed of himself for both lying about the topic and also promoting more government intervention in our personal lives, which essentially is what we're talking about here.
And also, it's the Tenth Amendment.
That's what it's really going to boil down to, the fact that the state, there is a federal law against marijuana, which was put in play in the late 30s to protect the paper industry, if you really want to be honest about it.
Yes, of course.
It was about hemp.
But anyway, the point is that it's a federal law, and the state law wants to trump it, and it's going to create a Tenth Amendment issue, and everybody who's a federalist, and I'll put O'Reilly in that camp, who actually does want big government interfering with our lives, it's a big government guy, big pro-Bush supporter during that era, if anybody wants to look back on old O'Reilly shows, during the eight years of George big government Bush, And see what he had to say about things.
It's obvious he's a shill for the Federalists.
O'Reilly can't be trusted.
No.
Well, I don't trust any of them.
Let me give you a statistic that might put everything into perspective here.
2009 U.S. sales, all U.S. sales of recorded music.
So this includes iTunes, CDs, everything recorded.
This is from the IFPI. $4.6 billion.
That's a pretty nice industry, right?
And music is all around us.
Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber.
What's the twat from Nashville?
Your friend?
Tyler.
Oh, yeah.
What's her name?
It's funny.
I can't remember her name.
Yeah.
What's her name?
Tyler.
Whatever.
Taylor Swift.
Taylor Swift.
Right.
$4.6 billion.
2009 sales of Lipitor, $5.7 billion.
Does this put any shit into perspective for you people, you stupid slaves, that Pfizer is making more money with one drug, one drug, than the entire music industry which you're so obsessed with?
That puts it into perspective.
I think.
Well, that's a depressing piece of statistic.
No, I think it's great.
I think it's really great.
We're not even talking about all the other stuff.
About the...
About all the...
I'll tell you, the $4.6 billion in the music industry sure employs a lot more people.
Yeah.
And it's entertaining.
I don't get anything from Lipitor.
You know, they're doing all these...
I won't even play that.
Let me undepress you.
This will be something funny.
Or do you want to do the...
You got another Arati clip?
I got a couple of...
Let me do an interlude.
Let me do a little interlude, just to brighten your day.
Okay?
A little interlude.
There's this television show called It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
Right.
You've heard about this, right?
I've tried to watch it.
Okay.
So, episode six, and I got tons of email about this.
When was the first time you ever heard the word jabroni, John?
You said it.
And had you even heard of that word?
I think so, but I can't be sure.
But we actually had to figure out where it came from.
My sister in Italy couldn't verify it.
I said it means like douchebag.
It's like American Italian.
I grew up with this word.
But you've never heard it in popular culture before, except maybe for wrestling...
But in that case, it's someone who throws a professional wrestling match.
So that's where we have heard the use of the word jabroni.
And then all of a sudden, this TV show, in episode six of the current series, I don't know how far ahead they are in producing, but once you get past your four episodes that are in the can, because you can always get cancelled, you have to have three episodes in the can, because that's a guarantee the network will give you.
And then after that, if you get picked up to continue for the season, if your ratings are good enough, then you start producing more.
So I would say that this might have coincided with our discussion about the word jabroni.
Listen to a couple of clips from the show.
What you're going to want to do is just gently, gently sort of guide the puck at the net like, you know, like a tiny bowl of cream you don't want to spill and you're guiding it.
I'm not going to do that.
I'm going to go out there and take a wicked slap shot, you know?
Really make a name for myself.
Otherwise, I go out there and look like a jabroni.
So, that is not the wrestling use of the word.
That is the no agenda use of the word jabroni.
And it didn't stop there.
You know what, you can't take a slap shot before you even know how to handle a stick and a puck, so we just glide one, just to get the form, and then we'll get bigger and bigger, and eventually slap shots.
But it starts with gliding like cream.
Go!
Gliding like a jabroni is what I'm gonna be doing.
Jabroni.
Okay, go.
And it just keeps on going.
You can't be out here swinging hockey sticks.
You're not even supposed to be out here without skates.
Get out!
Out!
Okay!
We're leaving.
You know what, Charlie?
I think he's right, dude.
Only a couple jabronis come out here without skates on.
I gotta do this thing in skates, man.
You know, work up a routine, really jazz the crowd.
Yeah, I can't stop you, though.
You keep using this word jabroni, and it's awesome.
It's like the coolest word.
Is that like a hockey thing?
Yeah, no, I don't know.
I think it's some Dago word, but...
So, then they actually, in this episode, they do a podcast where they're talking about, like, no agenda topics, with sound effects in the show, and then they meet the real broadcasters.
What is that?
The future of radio.
You jabronis.
Jabronis.
Cool word.
I heard that little future of radio meme in there.
Future of radio, yeah.
Because they're doing a podcast.
This is positive proof in your mind that somebody on the show, one of the writers probably, is listening to the show.
I can't say it's positive proof, but I have a feeling...
Why doesn't the guy give us a note, say hello?
This is what always pisses me off.
It's like, but come on already.
Anyway, it'd be cool if it was like that, and they should do a crackpot and buzzkill shit on the show.
Right.
Give us some real promotion, you jabronis.
Yeah, that's the thing.
They just steal our material, and that's the end of it.
Yeah, do something for us.
Come on, help a brother out.
Donate.
Help a brother out.
Yeah, you poor writers.
Jabroni.org slash NA to the writers of the Sunny in Philadelphia show.
Yeah.
No.
You know, I've tried to watch it a couple times.
It's got a cable pacing that I'm always having trouble with.
There's only a few shows that they produce specifically for cable that I can actually...
It's like I wanted to watch Nikita.
You know, and I couldn't take it.
It was just that the pacing and then the commercials are always weird because people watch cable dramas.
The reason why is they should have chosen Mickey for that role in Nikita and they chose some stupid woman.
They chose the wrong one.
She was up for that.
She would have been great.
She was up for it.
Yeah, she would have been great.
And they'd I chose the wrong woman.
The wrong actor.
Whatever.
I didn't steal the pace.
I probably still have trouble watching it.
Hey, thanks, brother.
I'd watch her, man.
Just make me some clips.
I got maybe, we're almost done, but I got, do I have anything here that, yeah, there's one thing I want to mention because this might get dated, but I was a little shocked, and I think the meme machine, the government propaganda machine is really going into full gear for domestic terrorists.
Oh, cyber terrorism perhaps?
No, just regular domestic bombers.
Wow, okay.
The cyber-terrorist thing is going on.
That's going on, too.
I didn't document too much of that.
I'll talk about that in a second.
I documented two incidents with major shows.
Major.
The number one show in the country is NCIS, and this last week's episode with no explanation, no motive, no rationale.
It was a weak, weak story with no plot points that were worth a crap.
But it was obviously, they didn't have their heart into it, but it was about domestic terrorists, a whole group of them in some little community, and they were all rich people, and they had a grudge against the government.
They were Republicans with guns.
Exactly, Republicans with guns.
They were going to blow up a little league field filled with girls who were the daughters of famous judges and generals.
Blow them bitches up!
You have a clip from that?
I don't see a clip.
No, I didn't get a clip from that, because I didn't think much of it.
I said, well, that's a one-shot.
We're not going to see this anymore.
I think people have got to give up on this domestic terrorist thing.
Then I heard the teaser for L.A. Law& Order, which is a story about domestic jihadis, American jihadis, who wear the burqas and the masks and the whole thing.
This is the teaser, which kind of just summarizes the show.
Next, a case that looks open and shut.
You should all burn in hell!
But the deeper they look.
They killed two little kids.
Tragedy turns to conspiracy.
An all-American jihadi terrorist cell.
With enough explosives to take down the Staples Center.
The defendants plotted an attack on LAX. To kill thousands of people.
He was just using me.
The message is coming!
But that's just the warm-up.
I have no choice but to surrender the defendants.
New Law& Order Los Angeles.
Next, on NBC. Isn't that a beauty?
To whoever's doing the teasers, by the way, somebody out there must know.
Whoever's doing the teasers for Law& Order Los Angeles is the best.
Yeah, do a teaser for us, man.
We need your work.
We love your work, man.
I mean, this guy is good.
We love your work.
I love his style.
I don't even watch the show anymore.
As soon as I see the teaser, I got it.
I forgot to ask you if you were ready for 10-21-10-21.
Because this is amazing.
I love how this happens.
The Great California Shakeout at 1021 on October 21st, where millions of people will practice drop, cover, and hold on as we are practicing for the big one.
You can see it all at shakeout.org.
What just happened?
We just had a 6.6 quake in Baja.
California.
Did you feel it?
I didn't feel it, but it's always amazing how we have these little tests, it's just a drill everybody, and then all of a sudden the real deal happens.
How convenient is that?
Drop, cover, and hold.
You should see this website.
Shakeout.org.
You've got a picture of a dad and a kid under a desk with books falling on them.
If you've ever been in a good shaker, There's a couple of things you should know.
Well, by the way, they'll get killed under that desk.
Yeah, of course.
It's the stupidest thing ever.
The desk will crush the two of them when the ceiling caves in.
Yeah.
But anyway, that's beside the point.
And the fact is, if you have a good shaker, usually a real good one that would kill you like that, knocks you on your ass immediately.
You're knocked down.
You've got to drop cover and hold on!
There's nothing to drop.
You will drop because the earthquake will knock you down.
And then you've got to cover and hold on, slave!
Hey, play the Beat the Quake.
Hey, there's a game here.
We can play a game.
Cool.
Beat the Quake.
No, it's Flash.
I'm not going to do that.
Look at his website.
Anyway, I lost you there for a second.
Of course, because we're shaking a drop cover and a hold on.
And here's the funny thing on this little site.
Little site?
Share your ShakeOut stories and photos.
This is an $18 million website.
Let's go to share our ShakeOut stories.
Does anyone post anything?
What is this site?
Go to this site, ladies and gentlemen.
ShakeOut.org.
ShakeOut.org.
And it's brought to you by American Red Cross, of course.
They want your money.
Yeah.
And by the way, look at the mosque.
Oh, no, it's the Griffith Park Observatory.
I thought it was a mosque.
It looks like a mosque.
FEMA, USGS, Cal EMA, California Employment Management Agency, whatever that means.
So maybe this wasn't a real report.
Maybe this was a fake report as part of the Great California Shakeout.
Maybe it wasn't even an earthquake.
You don't even know anymore.
You don't even know.
Crazy.
We're all going to die.
Drop cover and hold on!
I love these two people under this table has no chance of success.
If the roof caves in.
They're doomed.
They're doomed.
So anyway, a very interesting report, just getting back to the homeland jabronis.
I mean, jihadists.
American terrorism.
New York Times had an interesting report by Thom Shanker.
Pentagon will help Homeland Security Department fight domestic cyber attacks.
And essentially the Obama administration is saying, hey, you know, what is the rule again, John?
It's a constitutional law, I think.
The American army is not allowed to turn on its own people.
What is that called again?
Yeah, you can't.
It's just in the Constitution.
There's a name for that.
Yeah, there's a word for it.
Yeah, there's a word for it.
Like, what was it?
Hmm.
Come on, help me out now.
Come on, you're the Constitution.
It's like part of the posse comitatus.
That's it, posse comitatus.
But not when it comes to cyber.
No, no, no, no.
When it comes to cyber, no.
Then, of course, the Pentagon is all over it.
Because, of course, we're going to all get killed because the Stuxnet creators are all going to shut down everything.
Planes will come falling out of the sky.
Reporting that literally now in the United Kingdom, that cyber terrorists can make planes fall out of the sky at any minute they want to.
Through email, by the way.
It's amazing how they do that.
Through hacking emails.
So, essentially, posse commentatus does not count when it comes to cyber.
So this is the first step towards putting the troops on the streets.
Like, hey, listen, we do it for cyber warfare.
We should be able to do it for regular warfare.
Go into your homes, wait until your bracelet is scanned, everything will be fine.
Read this.
It's interesting.
It's in the show notes.
I will.
By the way, I just got a note from somebody on Twitter.
And there is a learn-to-speak teabag thing that NPR is promoting.
I know there is.
That's disgusting.
I don't make this stuff up.
I mean, I like Fiori's material.
The guy's quite funny, the cartoonist.
But why is NPR promoting this misusage, which is a sexual innuendo that is unacceptable?
NPR, the nation's treasure.
Treasure!
Don't we have a jingle for that somewhere?
I used to have it.
So are we done?
Because I do have one.
If you're going to go in this direction, I at least have kind of a backup clip.
Okay.
You got a backup clip, huh?
Let me just, before you do that, I think we should just mention that someone shot up the Pentagon.
You did hear about that, I presume?
No, I didn't.
When was this?
They shot...
You didn't hear about this?
The Pentagon?
That's impossible.
No, not at all.
Today at approximately 4.55 a.m., five to seven gunshots were reported by Pentagon police officers in the vicinity of the Pentagon South Parking Lot.
Pentagon police immediately shut down the reservation and closed all access to South Parking as well as all entrances to the Pentagon itself.
Pentagon Police, Virginia State Police, and Arlington County Police conducted sweeps of the area with no initial findings.
The reservation was declared safe and reopened at 5.40am.
At 6.20am this morning, an interior search of the building conducted by officers and investigators discovered two exterior windows that had been impacted by gunshots.
As we know right now, and the information is still preliminary, a window on the third floor and a window on the fourth floor were hit by gunfire.
So you've got to be pretty close to be shooting through windows at the Pentagon.
I think the Civil War has started, John.
I think it's just some guy shooting around and they hit the Pentagon.
No, because they keep...
Two holes, two broken windows?
No, I don't know.
It was like five or seven.
No, no, no.
We believe that...
There may have been other bullet strikes on the building as well.
But we are in the process right now of doing that crime scene search.
What offices do you go to?
Crime scene search.
Currently those offices are unoccupied.
Oh, how convenient.
They are in the process of being renovated, so no employees were working there.
We've discovered two...
Two bullet fragments in each of the windows, one on the third floor and one on the fourth floor.
There may be others, but that's still ongoing.
There were other witnesses besides the one officer who heard the gunshots.
Construction, there was a couple of construction workers as well.
Here it comes.
We're interviewing all of those to try to find out exactly what went down and how it went down.
And we were reviewing those videotapes from our cameras.
No!
They're reviewing the videotapes?
You mean they've got security cameras that actually have videotapes at the Pentagon?
They must have one for the jet that ran into the Pentagon then.
WTC-7 won't go away.
Amazing, huh?
Always brings it back.
Okay.
I got to.
So, I think we're done.
I can do this other stuff later.
It's kind of interesting, but it's not that interesting.
We'll never get back to it.
I know.
I always move these clips to the next week.
So there's a lot of stuff that we left on the table.
Please go to the new and improved show notes at noagendashow.com.
The science is in.
People actually do like the new show notes format, which is really nice to know.
And so there's tons of stuff in there about Gitmo Nation Lowlands, Gitmo Nation Cold Salmon, Gitmo Nation East, Gitmo Nation Jewelry.
Tons and tons of stuff that you should take a look at.
We literally just don't have enough financing to do more work because we've got to hustle and do other stuff so we don't become that guy on the corner of Hollywood.
You're worried about this?
I am completely worried about it, yes.
Well, if I were you, I would be too.
Thanks, pal.
Yeah, well, that's it.
I mean, just too much stuff.
I know.
I think we presented a few good pieces of information that will help people.
We're going to get them to stop going through the machine.
Yeah, opt out, people.
Opt out.
And this heroin thing is completely ridiculous.
It's a shame.
And that is, you know, they're targeting teens.
Yep.
With a buy 10, get one free.
Crap.
Yep.
Coming to you from the People's Republic of Southern California, where we all will drop, cover, and hold on.
From the Hilltop Watchtower Crackpot Command Center, I'm Adam Curry.
And from northern Silicon Valley where the sun is inching out.
And this could be the clinching game for the San Francisco Giants to enter the World Series if they can beat.
And hopefully they will.
Philadelphia, I'm John C. Devorak.
And we'll talk to you again on Sunday for early morning service right here on No Agenda.
