Good to see the human resources all lined up, ready to go, charged up, and depleting your $9.2 million value over your entire lifetime.
Thank you for joining us.
We do the program live every Thursday and Sunday morning at 9 a.m.
Gitmo Nation West time, which is different now everywhere else, now that we've changed to daylight savings, and Europe has not yet.
Except in Arizona.
Yeah, right.
And Europe has not done that yet.
Well, anyway, John, I'm very happy to...
Well, happy and sad at the same time.
As we now have more information on Kony 2012 creator Jason Russell's condition.
Ah.
Yes.
He has brief reactive psychosis.
Yeah.
In a statement released Wednesday, his wife and other family members said they believe his condition caused him to act strangely last week, ranting and roaming around a San Diego street in the nude.
Jason will get better, they said.
He has a long way to go, but we're confident he will make a full recovery.
And the doctors, indeed, say they are treating him for brief reactive psychosis, which, of course, I looked up on the book of knowledge.
And I was not aware this is an actual disease.
You can have this, and I think I'm displaying some of the behavior.
Let's take a look here.
Brief reactive...
This is from the DSM, I think, number three.
Brief reactive psychosis is a sudden short-term display of psychotic behavior, such as hallucinations or delusions that occur with a stressful event.
I think I qualify.
Symptoms of brief reactive psychosis may include the following, disorganized behavior, false ideas about what is taking place, hearing or seeing things that aren't real, and strange speech or language.
The symptoms are not due to alcohol or other drug abuse, and they last longer than a day, but less than a month.
So we're very happy that now we know what our friend Jason has.
But a lot of research has gone into what's been happening with him.
And the advocate, someone pointed out to me, and the advocate is, I guess, is that a predominantly gay publication?
No, it is gay.
Not predominantly, but 100%.
It's an advocate for the gay lifestyle.
It's a gay advocacy newspaper.
So they come out with their own research.
Yes, they came out with their own research.
Oh.
Yeah, because I only looked at the 2011 Form 990, and they went back to previous years.
And here's what they came up with.
The National Christian Foundation has donated to their cause in 2009.
The NSF described it, and of course this is written from a gay perspective.
Now you're talking about, you've changed the topic here.
Is it the gay, the advocate was writing about his psychosis?
No, they were writing about the Invisible Children.
Okay.
About his organization, I'm sorry.
Okay.
So, donors include the NCF, which describes itself as the largest Christian grant-making foundation in the world, and have, according to the Advocate, very anti-gay undertones.
They are the same people who proposed, or who allegedly, or it says here in the Advocate, largely, pushed Christian Ugandan lawmakers to propose the Kill the Gays Bill.
Remember that one?
Oh, yeah.
Which would make homosexuality punishable by death.
Jason himself, according to this article, did a speech at the, let's see, at Liberty University, and they have quotes from him about people fearing Christians.
And so basically in the gay community, I'll just cut to the chase here, what their conclusions are.
I have no proof of this.
Is that his suppression of his own gayness was part of what led him into this, what do we call it again?
The brief reactive psychosis.
Because he just couldn't handle it anymore.
And I have to say, gaydar does go off when you look at this guy dancing in his older videos and stuff.
Yeah, I agree.
And it doesn't make any difference to me, but I can see where if you've got a lot of push and shove going on and you're actually suppressing this, and then some traumatic event happened, Lord knows what, and then he just freaks out.
But the real news, of course, is exactly what we said, and it was preceded by a magic number 33.
33 senators introduced bipartisan resolution condemning Joseph Coney and the Lord's Resistance Army.
And this was released yesterday, a resolution in the Senate.
33 senators.
You can only guess which ones they are, but I have the entire list should you wish to vote them out.
And, of course, the news is all...
I'll give you the headlines that the news presents you.
Basically saying, hey, we've got to support these guys.
We've got to do a little bit of work and help them out.
But when you read the actual resolution...
Here it is, exactly what we expected.
I'll give you a few highlights.
And I love how the resolutions have all these kind of like that Euro language.
Whereas, on October 14, 2011, President Obama notified Congress he had authorized approximately, by the way, approximately 100 combat-equipped members of the armed forces to deploy in Central Africa to provide assistance to regional forces.
That's different language than we were presented with previously, right?
I don't remember the other language.
Well, it wasn't combat forces, it was advisors.
Consultants.
Consultants, advisors, right.
Yeah, farmers.
Now, here's one that slipped in that I think we discussed it when I did my review of all 900 pages of the National Defense Authorization Act.
But let's revisit.
Whereas the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal year 2012 authorized the Secretary of Defense with the concurrence of the Secretary of State to provide logistic support, supplies and services for foreign forces participating in operations to mitigate and eliminate the threat of the Lord's Resistance supplies and services for foreign forces participating in operations to mitigate In other words, a one two step.
We had the previous resolution from 2010.
That's where the president sent in about 100 combat-ready consultants.
But then the NDAA slipped in another little thing there.
Oh, so we can now provide support, supplies, and services.
What kind of services do you think those are?
And whereas the Consolidation Appropriations Act, which we didn't read, directed the President to support increased peace and security efforts in areas affected by the Lord's Resistance Army.
So let's just cut to the chase, and I'll get to the real words.
The Senate by this resolution calls on the President to keep Congress fully informed of the efforts of the United States government and to work closely with Congress to identify and address critical gaps and enhance United States support for the regional effort to counter the Lord's Resistance Army.
Commends the Department of Defense United States Africa Command.
AFRICOM, there it is, and members of the United States Armed Forces currently deployed to serve as advisors to the national militaries, supports continued efforts by the Secretary of State and representatives of the United States to work with partner nations and an international community to strengthen the capabilities of regional military supports continued efforts by the Secretary of State and representatives of the United States to work with partner nations and an international community to strengthen the capabilities of regional
to enhance overall efforts to increase civilian protection, calls on the Secretary of State and the Secretary of Defense, the administrator of the United States Agency for International Development, and heads of other government agencies to enhance mobility, intelligence, logistical capabilities for partner forces, engage logistical capabilities for partner forces, engage in efforts to protect civilians and apprehend or remove Joseph Coney and his top commanders from the battlefield, and I could go on.
This is the installation and full funding of AFRICOM as predicted.
And the only little step they needed there was the Coney 2012.
Jason Russell no longer needed.
Make the guy go crazy.
We've got it.
We have our 33 idiot senators.
Oh yeah, I saw that video, man.
We should do something about it.
And there you go.
AFRICOM, as per resolved in the U.S. Senate, now being enhanced for the entire region to kick out the Chinas.
It's sad.
It's sad when we're right.
It is.
Right most of the time.
Yeah, this really pisses me off.
It really does.
Because the whole internet was like, this is bogus.
And it doesn't matter.
The senators are just like 33.
Senators are just like, oh, okay.
It's groovy.
It's cool.
In the span of one and a half weeks, John.
One and a half weeks it happens.
I find it disturbing.
So, yeah, well, everything we talk about is disturbing.
Yeah.
In fact, let me tell you what disturbed me.
All right.
I'm coming on to do the tweeting, the retweeting, the twittering thing that you always talk about.
Yeah, yeah.
Something you're really involved with, I guess.
Yeah, you've heard of that thing, that tweeter.
So I go on and it says to retweet the fact that the show is on the air.
And here it is over on the left, who to follow.
Don't tell me.
It suggests Prometheus and followed by Chris Mara.
I don't know who this guy is.
Jeremiah Oyu Wang.
Then it says, and this really disturbed me.
It makes me wonder.
I should follow Britney Spears because she's followed by Adam Curry and others.
I don't follow Britney Spears.
You don't follow Britney Spears.
What?
You must get some great insight for this show from Britney.
I don't think I follow Britney Spears.
You do.
I do not.
Did you check on my thing to see if I... How can you check that?
I don't follow Britney Spears.
You said they're not going to lie to me.
Oh.
Why would the Twitterers lie?
The tweet people lie to me.
They have no benefit in lying to you.
No, there's nothing to it, but let's just read a few of Britney's.
This is the stuff you follow.
I never see Britney Spears.
Just dancing with the stars to support Jason's friend Roshan Fagan.
He's so cute.
And wow, can that boy dance.
Stop.
Very inspired by the Beautylish team.
So passionate.
Love the gift bag y'all gave me with the NARS lip gloss.
So President Obama visited...
Oh, now you're avoiding the topic.
Shut up.
I'm done with that.
Who else you follow?
I'm going to go through your people one by one.
Please do.
Meanwhile, I'm tracking the real evil.
Well, what, Britney Spears doesn't qualify?
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
She's evil.
That's why I'd probably follow her and see what's going on.
So President Obama is in Roswell, New Mexico.
You know, there's things you can say jokingly, particularly to kids, but there is a limit, I think.
And so he comes out with a gaffe, just a joke that is just like, okay, you know, there's a smattering of laughter.
So funny.
And then he says something that I'm just like, dude, you know, I don't care.
It's not funny.
You don't say that as the president.
It was a wonderful trip over here.
We took the helicopter.
We had landed in Roswell.
I announced to people when I landed that I'd come in peace.
Let me tell you, there are more 9- and 10-year-old boys around the country when I meet them.
They ask me, have you been to Roswell?
And is it true what they say?
And I tell them, if I told you, I'd have to kill you.
That's so funny.
You know, that if I told you I'd have to kill you joke, which started about 20 years ago, the first time I ever heard it.
Is really, there's something very arrogant and patronizing about it.
It's like his predator drone comment.
I've never said that to anybody.
I think it's completely insulting and it's stupid.
Or you have, you know, I can kill you because I'm so inside everything.
I know so much and I can kill you if I tell you.
It really is one of these little pet peeves of mine that I'd have to kill you.
Yeah.
And for the president to do it, you're right.
It's ridiculous.
It's not okay.
And I've been around a CIA person for all my life, my Uncle Don.
He's never said, yeah, I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you.
No, he doesn't do that, ever.
Nobody in their right mind does it.
I've always found it incredibly offensive when somebody tells me that.
That has happened.
Probably three or four people I've heard use that line.
It just really irks me.
It's like, really?
Yeah, it's not okay.
It's lame.
Well, for the president to do, that's over-the-top lame.
Should we listen to him?
Especially when he already did the droning joke.
Let's play the droning joke again.
I have two words for you.
Predator drones.
You will never see it coming.
You think I'm joking?
No, I don't.
What a douchebag.
And he said that to the Jonas Brothers.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I guess everyone thinks that the guy's hilarious.
He should be doing stand-up then.
Is that funny?
It's just like, yeah.
But you're right.
The people who say that actually have no power and could not kill you.
Yeah.
However, there's an exception to every rule, I think.
I don't like it.
I agree.
You know, I got something wrong with Mike.
You got something wrong with you?
No, with Mike.
Hold on.
Oh, there you go again.
What is that?
It's almost like a bitch.
Why don't you just tape this and then play it every time you have this problem while you're fixing it?
Well, let's see.
Hey, hoo-a-ha-ha-ha-ha.
Two.
Oh, man, it sucks.
One, two, two, two.
I'm back.
Loose wire.
It's not.
It's a knob, and I can't get it fixed.
Oh, it's a pot.
It's a pot.
No, it's a switch.
It's a turn switch.
And there's no way to fix it other than to replace it.
And, you know, who has time for that?
You know the spray that you can spray in there that cleans that crap up.
Yeah, I've tried that.
And it just comes back worse.
No, that doesn't make it.
We'll try a different brand.
Oh, man, it's horrible, John.
Well, this is that old gear of yours.
You're using gear that is so ancient that...
Two, two, two.
There we go.
All right.
It just...
Two, two.
Hey, man, you know, normally this would be second half of the show stuff.
Wait a minute.
Yeah, no, I gotta lay this on you.
This earthquake in Mexico.
The mega earthquake that's supposed to come today?
I have a bet with Mimi that you won't...
No, I bet you would know about it for sure.
No, this is not my mega earthquake that was supposed to come today.
This is about the earthquake in Mexico.
Oh, where coincidentally the Obama girls were there?
Many people captured the frightening scene on their camera phones, quickly posting the images to YouTube.
The epicenter of the quake was in Guerrero State, midway between Oaxaca and Acapulco.
Two of the most popular spring break destinations for young Americans.
President Obama's daughter Malia is in Oaxaca on a school trip.
Late today, the White House released a statement saying she's safe.
Oaxaca's governor says 500 homes have collapsed in his state.
But here's the crazy thing about this, John.
Almost immediately on the interwebs, People trace back all these news articles and flyers where the Mexican government, the Civil de Chiapas, announced an earthquake simulation on the 20th of March, 2012, 7.9 magnitude.
And there's flyers in everything of this thing.
This was pre-announced.
There was a drill.
They were going to do a drill on the 20th of March.
And what happens on the 20th of March?
A 7.4, and by the way, 10 kilometer deep, which is a typical signature for a HAARP. This thing takes place.
A typical signature for a HAARP? Yes, it is.
It's always very shallow.
All of the HAARP-induced earthquake machine earthquakes are always shallow.
And then, you know, by coincidence, and by the way, the press was asked to shut up about the first daughter being there.
Beside the fact that...
They didn't shut up very well.
Well, they did for a while.
She was there with 12 classmates, 25 Secret Service agents.
Yeah, what a waste.
You know, it's like...
I wouldn't mind having that kind of spring break.
Bunch of guys to get me drinks and stuff.
Hanging out.
But the whole thing about this pre-announcement, that is very, very weird.
So, I mean...
I just see this documented.
Oh, it's been documented everywhere.
No, it's been passed around the interwebs.
It hasn't been documented.
I haven't seen a copy of the flyer.
Oh, well, it's in the show notes, of course.
393.nashownotes.com.
I'll get it later.
Oh, no, everyone's all over this.
I would have thought it would have been the Chiners just sending a message to Obama.
Well, that's...
Anyway, I have no idea.
I mean, that's why I can't even put it in the second half of the show.
It's so bizarre to have...
And the State Department itself is telling kids, don't go to spring break.
Don't go to Mexico on spring break.
You can get killed or abducted.
And now if you've got 25 bucks.
Right!
But then they send the first daughter over there.
Yeah, I know.
That's pretty strange.
And the White House actually admitted that they confirmed the First Family requested news organizations to remove stories of Malia Obama's escapades.
Why?
What difference does it make?
Let me ask you this question.
What difference does it make whether they tell the public that she was there or not?
I don't know.
What difference does it make?
I don't know.
I'm just telling you what they confirmed.
And indeed, Huffington Post, Yahoo, IBT, International Business Times, actually removed stories.
Good going, guys.
What kind of a-holes are you?
Oh, okay.
Yeah, we'll take that out.
I'd like to know the reason.
I think I know what the reason must be.
Oh, there's the Obamas again, living it up.
You know, outside the country with a bunch of Secret Service people who probably flew in on one of the Air Force jets with their buddies.
They did.
Twelve friends hanging out.
Well, she's got to be a popular girl.
If you can go and party with her, I'd be hanging out and kissing her ass too if I was looking.
Hell yeah.
Hey, can I carry your bags?
Can I get in on this one?
How many people will that jet hold anyway?
Can I carry your bags, Malia?
Let me do your homework for you.
That's why they don't want it publicized.
Of course.
Hilarious.
Not for you and me, my friend.
However, I will say we were supported today by many of our producers, and if we could have this kind of support on every show, I could die a happy man at 90.
You could die a happy man anyway.
You could be in the saddle.
Hello!
Hello!
So let's thank some of these producers who came in.
Typically, you see a lot of familiar names popping up, but we'll take whatever we can get.
Yeah, we have our patrons.
But we do have a new patron, it seems.
And I looked and looked and looked, and I could not find anything from him.
He's now a new knight, Mitchell Sullivan, who's in Dubai.
Obviously a business guy there.
You make a lot of money in Dubai right now.
Started off the day with a nice $1,200 contribution.
JC left his phone in here.
I was looking around seeing if there was something in my studio ringing.
Oh, that's good.
That's funny.
I thought he did send a note, though.
I looked and looked, and I looked under his name.
I couldn't find one.
Well, why don't you look while I'm thanking other people.
I will.
If he did send a note, we will read it on the next show if we can find it.
Mitchell is probably listening.
Then we have Sir Mark in Tokyo.
Oh, Sir Mark from Sir Mark and Dame Astrid, our favorite architects.
He doesn't say what age she is, but claims that she's on some...
One of those earmark birthdays.
This is a birthday call out for Astrid, who he says is...
He wants to get her a double dame.
She's a double dame.
It's a double knockers on the dame.
So...
Anyway, you've met her.
I mean, I saw pictures of her.
I'm guessing she's going to turn...
I don't want to...
Maybe I'm wrong by...
35, I'm guessing.
No, she's got...
I was thinking she...
Well, yeah.
But it must be probably 40.
She's going to be 40.
I did not insult her.
Couldn't be a day over that.
I'm thinking 35, personally.
No, she looked...
I was just guessing when I... You know, 38.
Well, these are, without a doubt, two of our favorite patrons.
And they are just...
They give me hope.
Yes, they give me hope that I get a house design.
Yeah, exactly.
Really talented, successful people who listen to the show and donate.
Like aluminum walls or something.
These are two high-end architects.
I would love.
For people who want to know.
They do these projects that are always...
Yeah, like the Sony store.
They do huge projects.
They're amazing.
Good architects can do anything.
All right, I want to thank you, Mark.
Thank you, Sir Mark, and of course, by proxy, Dame Astrid, for your double knockers on the dame.
Sir Stephan Springer from Garland, Texas, your buddy down the street, came in with one of the 393.
This is a show number 393, so it's Palindra.
Yep, 393.
So he's a member of the 393 Club and everything in between, also executive producers.
Valley for Valley, really appreciate the work.
That goes into the show.
And when is Adam going to be on the Joe Rogan experience?
Yeah, that'll be when either I'm in Los Angeles or he's in Austin.
When I go to Los Angeles, I'm invited too.
Dude, I lived in L.A. for two years.
You never came to Los Angeles.
Well, I don't go there a lot.
No, and by the way, I would recommend you...
Oh, man!
Piece of crap!
Oh, I hate this.
I would recommend you...
Send more money!
Send more money!
You need equipment!
You can't replace that piece of equipment, so why would you even ask?
I'm going to replace it.
They don't make this anymore.
It's the TLA 5052 stereo valve processor.
I'll have it fixed for Sunday show.
So what are you going to tell me not to go to LA for?
There's nothing to do there, except get mugged.
You got mugged?
No, but I'm just saying, there's no reason to go.
That's the first place where...
Joe Rogan, I can go see Joe Rogan.
By the time you get to LA, it'll be burned down.
No, it's possible.
I need to make a point of getting down there somehow.
Jan DeBroca in Sharpsburg, Georgia, 393.

He needs a de-douching.
You've been de-douched.
And Victor Gregg in Decatur, Georgia, 321 in the morning from Victor Gregg.
The producer credit also completes my knighthood.
We're in Houston, Texas, he says.
I'm sorry, not Decatur.
Oh, he's in there this week for Bayou City Art Show as InsectWorks.com.

No agenda karma request I asked for in December.
Finally reached me earlier this month.
I found a few new tenants for my apartment.
Can I get some karma for my new tenants and a bit of the slide whistle?
Fantastic.
You've got karma.
Yeah.
Sven Middelkoop in Delft-Gaw.
Sven Middelkoop in Delft-Hau.
Sven Middelkoop in Delft-Hau.
Perfect.
You could walk in Holland, people would be like, hey, are you from the South?
Is that right?
It's sort of like accents from the south.
This country, you can drive from the north to the other in two hours.
Yeah, but it's very different.
The north and the south is very distinct in their accents.
It's amazing how everything's like the fractal of that was worldwide.
You know, Mickey had her friends over this week and they just left this morning.
And so we always speak English at home.
And so we were speaking Dutch the whole time.
And both our throats hurt.
Literally.
We have like infected throats because of all the...
All the spitting.
That's funny.
No, it's not funny.
It hurts.
And also, sex is no good in Dutch.
I'll tell you that.
Huh.
That's why they were at ships.
They were at sea a lot.
Yeah.
Why not?
Stefano Mellison, Milano.
All right.
I've got to go to Milano.
I've never been to Milan.
Yeah, right after your L.A. trip.
2-13-12.
Hello, BKNCP. Here's your palindrome donation for 21-3-12.

In fact, by the way, Sven also came in with 221312.
Can I please ask for some get laid with my co-worker, but the one I yet didn't get lucky with, karma?
Apparently everyone else did.
You've got karma.

There you go.
A couple of PR mentions.
We got some interesting domain name forwards.
I think we should stop this one of these days.
The domain name forwards.
Yeah, one of these days.
One of these days.
Let's put a number on it.
A hard number.
Well, this is very good.
I think the end of this year, we...
Tripping me out, dude.
I don't know what this is.
All of a sudden, this is happening.
It's the vibrations of the big megaquake.
I just don't know what to do.
I know what it is.
You got a mosquito stuck in the pot.
I don't know what to do.
I don't know what to do.
It's Chris breaking up and I can't stand up.
It's a real...
Yeah, you have a loose connection and that's...
Get in electronics because there's a bunch of guys in Austin that know how to fix these things.
I know, I know, I know, I know.
Okay.
It's just not going to happen, John.
We might as well quit the show!
Hello!
Okay.
Alright.
We'll see if this lasts.
I can already hear it now.
Hello!
She can see you on the Armed Forces Network.
Hello!
Hello!
Calling Zabranca.
If I can get it just right, it'll hang in there.
It's like...
There it is.
One, two...
No.
Yeah.
Alright.
Alright.
Shh.
If I don't talk, it won't break.
So at the end of this year, we're going to stop with domain names, and we're also going to stop with the night rings.
Yeah.
And we're going to introduce new things.
So I think at the end of this year we'll have enough domain names to last us, oh, I don't know, three lifetimes.
And then we're going to introduce something new for the knights.
First of all, a lot of knights are becoming double knights or double knockers on the dame.
And so we can't, you know, it makes no sense to send out another ring.
Yeah, we have some ideas.
And if you want a hint about the ideas, take a look at how the Order of Canada carries itself.
Well, even the British Queen.
They don't, yeah.
What does she do?
Well, she gives out things.
Oh, you're talking about Queen Elizabeth.
Yeah, did you see that whole puppet show they had on?
Where they were celebrating her Diamond Jubilee?
They had those crazy puppets?
You know those ones that look like the, you know what I'm talking about?
No, no.
Not the spitting image.
Spitting image or whatever it's called.
No.
And they gave her a glass and lead window or something.
I don't know.
I'm like, dude.
Glass and lead window.
Glass and lead window.
And here for your jubilee is a piece of glass.
Yeah, and everyone's like, oh.
And you could see her thinking like, how about some champagne, bitches?
This is no good.
Anyway, we have some interesting domain names.
2alcohol.com, which is a reference to, I guess, what Homer Simpson says.
And then, I think this one is kind of cool, Avatarder.com.
How long will it take until James Cameron calls, huh?
Avatar.com.
Avatar.
All right.
So we do highly appreciate it.
But quite honestly, when I see someone register like 10 domains, I'm like, oh, that's $100 we could have used to pay bills with, although it's funny.
It is funny, but I think the joke is running in.
I agree.
And there's a bunch of domains.
We should look at them all and say, you know, we could probably use these for some initiative that actually would be a benefit to the show.
Yes.
And we should tell the guy.
Hopefully we know who did the domain.
You can go to domains.nashownotes.com.
You can find all of them.
They're organized.
Simon does a great job of organizing all that stuff.
We'll take a few of them and push them over to our website.
Yeah, absolutely.
And of course, we wholeheartedly thank our dames and knights and executive producers and associate executive producers for coming in today and supporting the program to an extent that is very, very good for us.
It motivates extremely.
And anyone else who comes in with art help, and we'll have a donation segment later on.
And of course, there's always one thing you can do.
You can go out, take our formula, which is, well, you know what it is.
Listen to it.
Our formula is this.
We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
Oh, misfire.
New!
Oh!
I must have...
Shut up, Steve!
Wow, I often get a misfire like that.
That was weird.
Yeah, stuff happens.
Well, this is because you never said Sanco de Mayo.
That's exactly it.
I told you.
Did I not say exactly?
It doesn't mean the show sucks.
It just means you suck.
Thank you.
I love you too, John.
You know, it's okay.
You don't really suck.
You're great.
I don't mind producing the show.
Except that microphone connection.
I mean, you're a pro.
You shouldn't have gear like that.
I don't mind reading hundreds of pages of legislation.
I don't mind any of that.
I suck.
Hey, by the way, talking about that legislation, if you go to the...
There's like a...
All the natural news people and all these, you know, the organic people have taken a look at that same document and come up with another conclusion that we seem to have missed.
Well, what's this?
Well, apparently this gives the government the ability to use the National Guard to go and confiscate farms or go into retail operations and shut them down.
We read that verbatim.
Yeah, I know, but we didn't get the gist of it.
What's going on right now is that there are these organic farmers.
The National Guard is going into farms and retail.
What else is new?
But the thing, it turns out that the government has been doing this for a while, but they've been calling on the local sheriff's department to do this work.
Oh, now we can have the guys in combat fatigues.
It turns out it's because this has been going on for a while.
The sheriffs are going, hey, I know Bill.
I'm not going to go bust him.
Forget it.
They refuse to do the government's bidding.
I like his milk.
Yeah, or whatever.
And so they say, okay, fine.
And so they threw this thing.
Now the feds are just going to come in straight.
This is going to create a standoff at some point where the local authorities and the feds are going to have a shootout.
This can't go on.
Can't have this.
Well, I've read a number of different analyses, and then we're talking about the executive order that came out on Friday, last Friday.
I've read a number of analyses.
The main thing that changed, because this is a repeat of an executive order that has been going around since the 50s.
Right.
During the Truman administration.
And by the way, I'm documenting that every bad thing, I hate to point it at one guy, but every bad thing that's happened in this country in terms of liberty and civil rights and the rest of it stems from the Truman administration and John Foster Dulles.
Yeah, the father of the CIA. Yeah.
I think that's Alan Dulles, his brother.
There's two of them.
Yeah, well, they had a nice little gig going there.
Anyway, go on.
So, you know, the big thing that changed is all these powers that were given to the Department of Homeland Security, because it didn't exist up until, really up until the Bush administration.
The Bush administration didn't give this executive order with powers to the Department of Homeland Security, and the Obama administration now has.
Now bigger than the U.S. Marine Corps.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, it's beautiful.
It's a beautiful thing.
So, there is...
Kind of along those lines.
You know, now that we've read the United Nations document on...
Can you just interrupt me before you get into the United Nations document?
Just a little light-hearted thing.
Somebody just sent me a screenshot from their Twitter feed.
And it's got you, Adam Curry, we're live now at NoGen.
The next feed, the thing shows up right after him, CBC News, Tech and Science.
Drones work the skies for police, scientists, and media.
Yeah, those Twitter guys, man, they know how to group stuff together, don't they?
That's really good.
I'll keep going, I'm sorry.
So now, of course, we're on the lookout.
So this document, if you missed the show, it was, what was that, two shows ago?
Or the last show?
I can't remember.
That was the last show, I think.
Yeah, 279 pages of the United Nations document that essentially calls for regulations for, you know, kind of like this one world government thing where we all agree and it all gets passed down.
And now we're on the lookout for two main things.
How is...
The environment, the earth, and climate change being used to shepherd in laws that can be used for other purposes.
And also there's something weird with women, which I'm not quite sure how that works, but women get the real push here.
It's like we've got to save the women.
Like for some reason all of a sudden they're not equal.
And Hillary Clinton is big on that.
So a couple of things came out.
One was this interesting article in Scientific American, which...
Is that just a drinking club, John?
Or are those guys for real, Scientific American?
There used to be a very serious publication with a lot of good, real deep articles.
And it was taken over, I think, in the...
I don't know, it was the late 90s or something like that.
It became kind of a soft, it became real soft.
I think Discover Magazine and some of these other science, light science magazines were getting too much attention.
It's not taken as seriously as it once was, let's put it that way.
Well, that's good because they came out, they're following the agenda.
Headline, Effective World Government will be needed to stave off climate catastrophe.
Oh, really?
Yeah, they're basically saying...
They're just saying let's give a world government, yeah.
Yeah, so among the proposals are called to replace the largely ineffective UN Commission on Sustainable Development with a council that reports to the UN General Assembly.
This is exactly what I read from the UN documents.
So they took their marching orders from their documents in an attempt to better handle emerging issues related to water, climate, energy, and food security.
Unfortunately, far more is needed.
To be effective, a new set of institutions would have to be imbued.
Good word.
Imbued.
What does that mean, imbued?
Given the power of.
With heavy-handed transnational enforcement powers.
Nice.
Heavy-handed.
Shut up, slave.
We'll heavy-hand you.
We'll backhand you.
So they're completely on board, and wow, there's a number of things that are just...
See, now, of course, we've got to indoctrinate people.
Yahoo News, which of course means it's spread far and wide.
This is a great way to do it.
It seems like anything that comes out of Scandinavia, people tend to believe it.
So we have, according to a Swedish study, greenhouse gases are likely to result in an annual cost of $2 trillion in damage to the oceans.
I don't know how.
I mean, is the ocean suing somebody?
How do they know this?
I don't know.
But you put a number on this.
You watch this propagate.
$2 trillion worth of damage.
How are we going to pay for it?
But there's something even crazier.
And they brought in a great spokesman for this.
And this is just an unbelievable piece here.
This is The Road to Rio, Regions Building the Green Economy.
Now you recall in our UN document, we have the big summit coming up in Rio in, I think, July this year.
And you check this out.
Sustainia.me.
Sustania?
Sustania.me.
S-U-S-T-A-I-N-I-A. Sustania.me.
And this has all the likely actors you'd expect in this.
Sustania.
The usual suspects.
The usual suspects.
Finding solutions for a sustainable tomorrow.
And who is their number one spokesman, ladies and gentlemen?
Yes.
If you're looking for a guy, you might as well get Arnold Schwarzenegger.
I mean, he needs a gig.
He's ready.
He's a good speaker.
Yeah, he's been looking for something to do.
He's got his catchphrase.
International events planned.
Yeah.
Powerful international supporters.
Read more.
I want to see what these powerful international supporters are.
Yeah, why don't you do that and I'll play a little bit of the brilliant Arnold Schwarzenegger as he talks about his crusade.
Right over there, yeah.
I mean, this man is a genius.
I love this guy.
He came up with a sustainer prize.
It's the Sustainia Prize.
It's one of those brilliant ideas.
He can't keep a straight face.
Yeah, he's trying though.
When you lead an organization like this, you have thousands of different ideas coming your way.
But when I heard that Sustainia Prize...
That Eric came up with.
I thought that that was a brilliant idea.
It will be a whole presentation that he's going to make.
A power presentation.
A power presentation.
You mean PowerPoint, Arnie.
That's okay.
A power presentation.
Later on.
And I just want you to know that I'm a huge admirer of yours.
He's talking about the founder.
They're all like from Scandinavia, once again.
Personally, I feel as committed to this as I was committed to our...
I should say fitness crusade.
Crusade.
That we led for the last 40 years.
Yes.
And I said that one day there will be enough gymnasiums or more gymnasiums than their supermarkets or their grocery stores in the world.
Because we need to have places where people can work out and get fit.
I wanted everyone in the world to be as fit and I wanted everyone to...
We need a place where I can see hot chicks and tight stuff, you know, sweating.
Still as good and healthy as I did.
And today, there's no place, no hotel that you walk into where there's not a gymnasium.
Every military base is a gymnasium.
Every police station, every university, every...
Why does he say that?
Every military base is a gymnasium.
Every police station is a gymnasium.
It's very good, it's gymnasiums.
It's a crusade.
High school, every sports team is using weight resistance equipment and so on.
So we were very successful in that crusade.
The same will happen here.
The key thing is that we communicate the right way, that we all work together, and that we are as inclusive as possible.
Now, how do we wrap it up?
If you're Arnold Schwarzenegger, there's only one thing you gotta do to earn your paycheck?
You know it.
With that, I want to say thank you very much, all of you, for your hard work.
And I can promise you, I'll be back.
Yeah, of course.
That's his thing.
That's worth a hundred grand right there.
So the guy is Eric Rasmussen.
Yeah, Rasmussen.
And he is like a journalist turned, I guess he was obviously...
Keyword, like.
Like a journalist, yeah.
He was elected as one of the world's 100 most influential journalists by the World Economic Forum.
And has been a member of the International Media Council, whatever that is.
I haven't looked that up.
Did you see the prize, though?
Did you see the...
I'm looking at this.
It's everyone.
It's Connie Hedegaard.
It's all those douchebags.
Microsoft's in the mix.
Of course.
Yeah.
Of course.
This is big.
I have to say...
Yeah, it looks like a drinking club.
Sustainia?
No, it's not.
It's a promotional club.
Provoting what?
Sustainable tomorrow so we can make laws to have a new world government.
Don't you get it?
Oh, I guess not.
Why Sustainia?
Yeah.
The partners behind Sustainia aim to make sustainability more tangible and easier to grasp for both decision makers and citizens by developing a new narrative and language to communicate about a desirable, sustainable future.
It seeks to motivate and inspire instead of communicating gloom and doomsday scenarios.
We need to start one of these.
Everyone's in the business of communicating through social networks.
Someone needs to fund us doing this.
We would be great.
Here, look at who's a part of this.
Microsoft, GE, DNV, Philips Lighting.
Somebody knows how to get money.
Dong Energy.
And people complain about us asking for a few cents from our listeners.
Who is Dong Energy?
Dong.
Yeah, Dong.
What is that?
I'm the president of Dong Energy.
We make some interesting devices.
Novo Nordisk, Tetra Pak, Cisco...
I mean, IKEA, everyone's here.
Everyone's in this.
UBS Investment Bank, uh-huh.
This is, you know, key organizational partners of the UN Global Compact and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
That's the Global Compact.
Those are the guys who wrote the document.
And Arnold Schwarzenegger's new climate initiative, R20, Regions for Climate Action.
It's happening.
It is happening right here, right under our very noses.
Here's the interesting thing.
I'm looking at this guy.
He won the award from the International Media Council.
International Media Council is essentially a subset of the Next Century Foundation, which is a London-based operation run by a bunch of incredible elites.
And if you look at their board, Lord Stone of Blackheat, the Earl of St.
Andrews, Sir Jeremy Hanley, Sir Harold Walker, Reverend Larry Wright...
Sheikh Nasser bin Hamad Al Khalifa.
Woo!
Waleed Khalid Isatawa.
Nice.
These are not the kind of guys that we normally hang out with.
You know what's really good about this, though?
Because for the next year, we'll be able to play the jingle.
Ah!
But we need a Sustania.
Now we need a Sustania jingle.
Because that's it.
A Sustania is a good name.
Too bad the.com wasn't available.
Let's see.
Who has the.com?
Because someone messed up there.
Sustania.com.
Let's see.
A micro-nose company.
What is that?
It's a small nose.
A micro-nose company.
What is micro-nose?
What is that?
I don't know, but they're blocking these guys.
Micronose.com.
So they got UBS Warburg and they can't even...
Uh-oh.
No, now you're getting music.
Micronose.
Oh, it's the Sustainia Company.
Oh.
Clean, healthy drinking water.
Oh.
Natural absorption media.
Prominent professionals.
State-of-the-art solutions.
Global operations.
Micronose Media, the solution.
The media standard for the 21st century.
Cool.
I don't know who those guys are.
This Next Century Foundation is a global governance operation.
Council deals with issues in relation to xenophobia and disinformation and publishes a media ethics code.
They're the ones that calls people out for political correctness.
Exactly.
We're all one big happy family.
Now, did you follow what happened down under in the land of Oz?
No, I didn't.
You forgot to brief me.
I've got no Australian anything.
Yeah, of course.
We have a huge contingent of producers and listeners to the No Agenda podcast in Australia and New Zealand.
And so there's this guy, Palmer.
He is kind of like the coal mega-mogul.
And he runs all the coal down there in Australia.
What's his first name?
Hold on a second.
Clive.
Clive Palmer.
And he is so angry because it turns out there's a report that the Green Party is touting there in Australia.
And this report basically is trying to kill off coal, essentially, which is part of the green initiative.
And he calls a press conference.
He says this whole thing is bogative.
It's paid for by the CIA. And we've just distributed, I'm sure you've heard about it, but this How to Stop Queensland Coal report, which probably came out of Langley in the United States for the CIA, certainly came through the Rockefeller Foundation.
If you go to page 12, you'll see this is a paper which Greenpeace has been produced at their executive to get this project going.
It's got about $10 billion in funding, and it shows that the funding is coming from the United States, right?
Basically, it tells you from the Rockefeller Foundation.
He could be a co-host of this show.
He's like, yeah, these guys suck!
It's reasonable and fair in a political environment to have political debate about the environment.
None of us as Australians want to be controlled or dominated by foreign powers.
In this document, among other things, they tell you how they're going to change the story for coal.
They talk about the funding of an independent documentary which is going around Queensland, which has been funded by the Rockefeller Foundation from the United States, defaming me, defaming Waratah.
Whatever the Greens want to raise, it should be raised by Australian Greens, surrounded by Australian Green supporters.
We don't want domination by a foreign power.
I'm first an Australian.
I'm not an American.
I think this is wrong.
I think Drew Hutton should be ashamed that his document's in there.
I think the Greens in this coming state election, all their candidates should resign if they're being funded by an offshore political power.
It's tantamount to treason.
Yeah.
This guy's angry.
He's very, very angry.
Yeah, well, he points out in there, I'm just looking at this report.
He points out in that, I don't know if you have the clip of him saying this, but he says, you only have to go back and read the church report in the 70s and read the reports of the U.S. Congress, which sets up the Rockefeller Foundation as a conduit of CIA funding.
Yeah.
I don't have that clip, but yeah.
No, and...
It's, you know, we've got our fingers everywhere.
Yeah, of course we do.
That's what we do.
We do it better than anybody.
No, this shouldn't be a shock.
It's fine.
Someone put this guy out of business so we can make more money here.
I wouldn't mind a lot of this, and I don't even think we'd be discussing it, if these a-holes that run these oil companies do something about the price of gasoline in our own country.
I mean, I think it's about time we started thinking the way the Alaskans do.
You pump oil out of the ground of Alaska, you pay the Alaskan public some kickback like they should do in California.
We got plenty of oil and gas in California, and the public gets none of it.
Well, the President is now, he's moving ahead.
You know, one day he's in front of solar panels.
This morning, just before the show started, he was in front of a bunch of pipes.
Oh, pipes!
Yeah, pipes.
John, we've learned that the President, as you know, he's going on this energy tour over the next couple of days.
When he's in Oklahoma on Thursday, his His plan, according to a source familiar with his announcement, is to say that his administration will be expediting the permit process when it comes to moving along this portion of the Keystone XL pipeline.
As you'll recall, back in January, the administration objected to the entire 1,700-mile pipeline that would have brought Fuel down from the oil sands of Canada all the way down to the Gulf.
This is a segment of that pipeline.
As right now, TransCanada, the company behind the pipeline, tries to rework basically the route on the northern part.
So this is a segment of this original pipeline route that would go from Cushing down to the Gulf.
No doubt going to be met by criticism from some environmentalists And already being met by some criticism from Republicans on Capitol Hill, John.
So I don't think that that really, you know, this is just a little bit of pandering move by him.
It's not actually connecting up to the Chinese-owned tar sands up there in Canada.
And it never will.
It never will.
This pipeline will be used for something, but it's definitely not going to be used to connect to the Chinese.
By the way, where do you think Palmer Coal goes to?
China?
Uh-huh.
Of course.
Of course.
We have such an incredible jihad against the Chinas right now.
It's just, it's unbelievable.
Well, you know, at some point, I think we've got fed up with their policy or their monetary policy.
We're putting the screws to them as best we can.
I think we're doing a pretty decent job.
The economy is slowing down.
We're doing a good job.
We're doing a great job.
We just raised the duty on Chinese solar panels from 2.9% to 4.7%.
So that's good.
Way to go, I say.
Kick them Chinas out.
It'll be interesting to see how our new partners, the Russians, behave.
The Russians are a little more aggressive in their personality.
I like Russians, though.
I mean, not the oligarch, fat, bloated dudes.
Russian chicks are hilarious.
They can beat you up.
Russians are an interesting culture.
It's weird because it's a culture that never had an industrial revolution the way everybody else did.
They kind of jumped.
With the Marxist revolution, they jumped a step.
And so their personalities culturally are just odd in some funny way.
They see things differently.
And they're all mathematicians.
They're all extremely...
Right.
Well, there's a contingent of Russians here in Austin.
There's a huge contingent in Boston.
Yeah.
Well, I don't live in Boston.
I live in Austin.
Well, I mean, it's just to the point where you can't go anywhere.
It's like they took over the place.
Yeah.
But they're cool here.
What are they doing in Austin?
Are they working doing what?
Well, the one girl we met who organizes parties, she actually came to the U.S. I think like 18 years ago on a scholarship in Russian.
Yeah.
So she effectively defected.
She's like, yeah, I did really well on my test.
Yeah, you spoke fluent Russian.
She just quit, though.
She quit her job.
I don't know what she was doing.
But now she organizes parties and a lot of Russians show up.
And it's funny.
I like them.
I like them.
They're okay in my book.
There's not a lot of China.
Chinas kind of keep to themselves here, if they're around.
Oh, in Texas?
I can't imagine a Chinese being very comfortable there.
No.
Probably can't even find a good Chinese restaurant.
Well, on the China front, as we, of course, have been following the pipes, this was kind of hilarious.
So now South Sudan, which is George Clooney's territory...
We've basically blown up the pipeline, or someone has for us, or whatever, so the Chinas aren't in.
They were building this huge pipeline.
Now, South Sudan says it's planning on building a temporary underwater oil pipeline along the Nile.
Of course, we own all of that now.
To deliver crude for export.
Now check this out.
The pipeline would extend from oil fields to the capital, Juba, where the crude would be transferred to trucks and taken to, can you guess?
China.
No, we gotta take it to a port.
Cyprus.
No, we gotta take it to a port.
Djibouti.
Djibouti.
Oh, Djibouti.
Djibouti, where we have a huge base.
We have a huge base in Djibouti.
Never heard of Djibouti before.
And now all of a sudden they're building an underwater pipeline to Djibouti?
Oh, really?
Now that we're there?
Unbelievable.
It's just crazy.
It's just...
We're getting off the track here.
Let's go.
Let's get back.
Before you start playing, you play the pipes thing.
I'm not going to play it.
I'm not going to play it.
So I do have one just off the wall clip that I thought was interesting because we haven't done this for a long time.
I thought I'd just reintroduce it.
This is the latest commercial from Cymbalta.
For depression.
And as you know, you can kind of tell, you can kind of reverse engineer the viewers.
Now, what is Cymbalta?
What does it do for me?
It's some antidepressant.
Does it cause anal leakage?
It causes everything.
All these things.
Yeah.
Okay.
So...
This is an interesting clip, though, because for one thing, let's go back and say that you can reverse engineer the viewers of a show based on the commercials.
You see a lot of commercials for hemorrhoid treatment and, you know, and the clapper and you guys didn't fall and I can't get up.
You know, you see that it's on a lot of Fox shows a lot of old people watch.
So apparently there's a lot of depressives because all the commercials are for these sorts of things on Netflix.
Oh, what show is this?
Your favorite show.
Smash.
Smash, which is number one in the ratings, I might point out.
I looked at the ratings.
It is not number one.
It wins their time slot every Monday.
What are you talking about?
It wins the time slot.
It's not number one in the ratings.
It's not even in the top ten.
I follow it.
The New York Times publishes that every day.
I watched it again on Monday.
It's an outstanding program.
It's a piece of crap.
It's outstanding.
It's terrible.
And it's all inside baseball.
If you want to be a star and want to work on Broadway, I guess it would be a good show.
It is so gay.
They brought Bernadette Peters on the show as the girl's mom on Monday.
That's beside the point.
I like the show.
I thought this was disturbing.
They ended a scene, which I have a little clip of the end of the scene, with the same music that they use in the commercial.
So you're going to hear an end of scene where the blonde girl is going, oh, I feel so sad.
Ivy.
That's right.
She's depressed.
Yeah.
She's depressed and they play some music with the same horn and then they have a very short silence break and then right into the commercial.
Same music.
Just some Balta.
Unbelievable.
Wow.
With depression, simple pleasures can simply hurt.
The sadness, anxiety, the loss of interest, The aches and pains and fatigue.
Depression hurts.
Cymbalta can help with many symptoms of depression.
Tell your doctor right away if your depression worsens.
You have unusual changes in behavior or thoughts of suicide.
Antidepressants can increase these in children, teens, and young adults.
Cymbalta is not approved for children under 18.
People taking MAOIs or thyritazine or the uncontrolled glaucoma should not take Cymbalta.
Taking it with NSAID pain relievers, aspirin, or blood thinners may increase bleeding risk.
Severe liver problems, some fatal, were reported.
Signs include abdominal pain and yellowing skin or eyes.
Tell your doctor about all your medicines, including those for migraine.
And while on Cymbalta, call right away if you have high fever, confusion in stiff muscles, or serious allergic skin reactions, like blisters, peeling rash, hives, or mouth sores, to address possible life-threatening conditions.
Talk about your alcohol use, liver disease, and before you reduce or stop Cymbalta, dizziness or fainting may occur upon standing.
Simple pleasures shouldn't hurt.
Talk to your doctor about Cymbalta.
Depression hurts.
Cymbalta can help.
That's some crazy-ass stuff.
I've got to get some of that.
Now, the thing that bothers me is you have this moment of the blonde being depressed.
Being depressed.
Then they play some music under it and they go right into this commercial for a depression drug.
This is unconscionable.
I can't believe I missed that because I watched it.
Oh, we recorded.
I fast forward to the commercials.
That's why.
Well, it didn't work on me.
I love that you have to report if you...
If you're confused.
If you're confused, you won't even...
I mean, it doesn't make any sense.
I have some peeling.
My lips are turning blue, my eyes are turning yellow, and I'm confused.
Who do I call?
Some death was reported.
Hey, I'm dead.
I've got to call this in.
How do you report the death?
Hey, this guy died from your drug.
Oh, okay.
I caught a commercial.
Yeah.
Now, we know what food stamps are.
The one thing they are not is stamps.
The food stamp program, which is managed by, I believe, JPMorgan Chase, is a credit card program.
Yeah, they did that a couple years ago.
Yeah, so they still call it food stamps.
Yeah, there's no stamps involved.
No, and you can do almost anything with these credit cards, but you can't buy ready-made meals, even though somehow at McDonald's, if you don't go through the drive-thru, you can get something inside.
Maybe they just give you the bun and the...
It's very scandalous.
Keep investigating this, and more and more weird things you can buy with these credit cards.
And J.P. Morgan, of course, is making a killing on it because they do all the transactions.
Right, so they keep saying food stamps, but it's not food stamps.
It's a debit card, basically.
So listen to this commercial and tell me that this isn't incredibly wrong.
I love taking my grandkids to the park, but if I want to keep up with those little bundles of energy, I have to stay healthy and eat right.
And that can be a real challenge.
Grandma, come on!
But that's where food stamp benefits come in.
They help me eat right when money's tight.
Would you look at Margie?
She looks amazing.
Yes, she sure does.
I wonder how she stays so fit.
What's her secret?
Well, she told me that food stamp benefits help her eat right and she stays active, too.
Oh, I didn't know they helped people our age.
Oh, food stamps help lots of people.
People you know.
Wait, you use it, too?
Yes, I do.
Wow.
Wait, you use it too?
And I've got these really black voices.
Where was this commercial?
Oh, this aired on...
I don't know.
It's been airing all over the place.
It's a radio ad.
It doesn't air in California.
It's a radio commercial.
Oh.
Yeah, it's a radio commercial.
It had little kids play in the background.
You always start to listen to radio.
Yeah, but hello.
To me, it's just like, wow, it's like, get on the food stamps.
It's all good.
Hey, girl, you need to get on food stamps.
The right-wingers see this food stamp program, the way they're promoting it like this, as bribing the electorate.
Well, of course it is.
Yeah, it is.
Meanwhile, this was in...
Let me just see.
I think this was in...
Where was this?
Where's Nutter?
Where is he the mayor?
Nutter?
Yeah, is that...
Here, let me look it up for you.
You go Mayor Nutter.
I think it's Nutter.
Maybe he's not...
I can't find it.
Michael Nutter?
Mayor of Philadelphia?
Philadelphia, right.
The third African-American mayor of Philadelphia?
Yes, Philadelphia.
Largest city in Pennsylvania?
Yes.
Yeah, in Pedovania.
He's got a new rule.
New rule!
Well, Natasha, right around this time every evening, the lines begin forming here along the parkway, at Love Park and other locations.
The homeless, sometimes scores of them, waiting to be fed by volunteers.
Soon that will no longer happen.
The mayor announcing a ban on that outdoor feeding today, and that ban creating a controversy.
A volunteer brings a box of sandwiches at lunchtime, offering them to a homeless man.
Feeding the homeless, an act of charity, but an act that the mayor now says will no longer be allowed on city streets and in city parks.
I've instructed the Commissioner of Parks and Recreation to issue regulations that would ban outdoor feeding in all city parks.
The mayor says the main reason behind the ban on outdoor feeding?
Problems with food health and sanitary conditions.
The hope that the homeless can now be fed at other indoor facilities that may be established.
So this is really an issue about food safety and public safety and public health.
Yeah, they don't give a crap about these homeless guys, but oh yeah, now we care.
Full crap.
So if you have a sandwich...
Food safety.
Yeah, if you have a sandwich, it's okay to eat that in the park, but if someone gives you a sandwich, it's not okay.
And I like that no outdoor feeding.
It sounds like they're cattle.
Yeah, that outdoor feeding thing I've never heard of.
No outdoor feeding of the slaves.
What are you doing?
Where are you going?
Are you going to have a picnic?
No, we're going to go do some outdoor feeding.
Well, there's a difference.
If you have a job, it's a picnic.
If you're homeless, no, if you have a house, it's a picnic.
If you're homeless, it's outdoor feeding.
Yeah, exactly.
And restaurants, if you just call it what it is, restaurants, indoor feeding.
Outdoor feeding.
We should have their whole chain.
Indoor feeding stop.
It's just unbelievable.
It's disgusting.
This guy's one of the biggest Obama supporters.
Oh, really?
He's a major, major Obama guy.
There's lots of pictures of him with various Obama signage.
Change we need is the one I'm looking at.
What change did we get?
Rock and roll.
Yeah, no, this has been going on, and San Francisco had something like this.
They had a number of systems in place to feed the homeless, and they shut them all down for, same thing, health department.
I guess it's okay if that's a health department issue, but people dying of starvation is not a health issue.
Well, already we're seeing this now at the Austin Sustainable Living Market, which we always go to on Saturday.
There's a lot of things that, you know, because typically at the market, it's like, hey, you want to have a taste of my goat cheese?
And they have little samples.
There's certain things now that you can't sample anymore.
They're not allowed to do it because they've got, like, you know, narcs walking around, and the minute you open something up, then they get shut down, arrested, taken away.
You can't give people samples.
But you can sell them the product?
Mm-hmm.
Is that what you're saying?
Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying.
So you can sell them the product, but you can't have given them a sample of the same exact product?
For instance, honey.
So Texas has an interesting honey production, and I think it's made about 100 miles south of Austin, and the guy cannot let you taste the honey.
He says, I can't do that because I'll get arrested.
Why?
He says it's like...
Wait a minute, let me get this straight.
Health and safety freaks walking around.
You can buy the honey.
Yes.
So you can give him money, give you a jar of honey, then you can taste it.
But he can't give you a taste of the honey because it's illegal?
Yeah.
Well, what's the rationale for that?
Wait, wait, let me rephrase the question.
What's the rationale for that sort of idiocy?
Shut up, slave.
So you can buy this honey, but you can't taste the honey.
I shall ask tomorrow, Saturday, when we go, I shall ask the honey man what exactly the legislation is.
I'm sure he knows.
I'll ask him for the exact legislation.
This is harassing small vendors is what it is.
I'll tell you what it is.
If that is his answer, then I'll take that.
But I'm sure he'll have the actual official answer, too.
No, they don't.
The whole government's mechanism right now is to...
And this is not the government's fault as much as it is the big businesses' fault.
They're the ones who promote these things to their...
They'll take a lobbyist and go into the Assembly of Texas and say, hey, this is terrible.
You know, you're going to poison people.
You've got to put a stop to it because they're like representing big...
Phony baloney honey industry people that crank out crap honey that you can buy at a grocery store that is made of corn syrup and some honey mixed in with it with a honey flavor.
And it's probably...
That's the health issue is that horrible product these people sell.
They don't want people going like, wow, this tastes like real honey.
Wait a minute, it might be really good.
It might be natural.
Because you will freak out.
The difference between that store-bought stuff and what we get from the market, wow, it's just unbelievable.
Anyway, this has been going on, and that's why people were complaining about that latest Obama bringing in the National Guard to shut down farms.
Yeah.
It's all part of big ag, big organic, big everything.
Yeah.
Whole Foods might be behind it, for all you know.
Well, Whole Foods is headquartered here.
This is where it all came from.
So it's very possible.
It's possible, because they don't want you tasting honey at the farmer's market.
They want you going to Whole Foods.
Which we barely ever go to now.
We used to go there all the time, and now it's like, screw that.
No way.
Hey, Ron Paul was on Jay Leno.
I didn't see it, but I'm happy to see that you got some clips.
Yeah, let me take a look at my clip list.
That might be kind of fun to play a little intermission.
I got four clips from this.
It's actually interesting.
One, he's got a strategy, which is kind of interesting.
But first, I want to play two clips about the kind of response he got.
And you've never seen this with even Obama in his heyday did not get this kind of crazy hooting and hollering.
And the first clip showing this would be hooting for Paul.
Play just a second of that.
Oh!
I haven't seen you for a couple of months.
Welcome back.
Thank you, thank you.
You're good to be here.
It's all for you, everybody.
There you go.
Yeah.
It's like Justin Bieber.
Yeah.
Only he's better looking than Justin.
And then after the whole thing was over, they brought out Frank Caliendo, who's an impressionist, who I thought was going to try to do Paul, but he never did.
But he just mentions him.
Paul decided to stay there on the set, so he's sitting in the seat next to him.
And this is another example.
I've never seen anything quite like it.
This is just mentioning Paul the way he would, like if he's a rock star, play the Do You Know Dr.
Dr. Paul clip.
You know, Dr. Paul?
Paul, I met him backstage.
stage it was awesome you don't really do many political candidates Before you move on, Jack Welch and his wife, what's her name, Susie, they wrote an op-ed about Ron Paul.
And I thought this was very interesting.
It's like a thousand word op-ed.
And they're saying, I'll just quote a piece from it.
Jack Welch, famous CEO of General Electric.
GE? Wasn't he?
Yeah, no, he was a fan.
He rode a lot of boats.
He was considered one of the great businessmen of all time.
But he had such a great businessmen, he got screwed when he retired.
Well, yeah, that shit happens.
There can be no brush-off, no phew, he's gone.
Now let's get down to business.
No booby prize.
Ron Paul needs to be given a role that really means something to him, a role with influence and voice.
Then he goes on, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Because if he isn't, Ron Paul and his followers will make their unhappiness known, and for the mishandling of this defining moment, the GOP will deserve their ire.
Yeah, he's recognizing it, and I really think Ron Paul is being set up for a VP-dom.
At least an offer.
at least an offer.
Well, there'll be still that to do something because I've never seen anything.
I mean, he really, you know, they talked about how Obama was a rock star when he was, you know, running in 2008.
But I've never seen this kind of reaction.
I mean, were they really, you know, this Ron Paul crowd is amazing.
But anyway, so Ron Paul discusses his strategy, which is a little obscure, but it's interesting.
He mentions it on Leno so we can at least figure out why he's still running.
But play the Ron Paul strategy on Leno, and then you get a feeling for this.
Now, the magic number is 1144.
Can Romney reach that number as things look now?
The answer is he can, but will he on the first vote?
It's uncertain.
I think there's a very good chance that they might actually have two votes or three votes, and that would open up the door for them.
Can you quickly explain to folks what a broken convention would be?
Because it's been 50 years since we've really had one.
Yeah, it's all a canned convention.
We used to send people over there that were uncommitted and they'd work it out and pick a candidate.
But a broken convention means that nobody wins on the first ballot.
And nobody gets eliminated, so they have to have a re-vote.
But the big issue there is the committed delegates.
See, there'll be delegates maybe committed to Mitt Romney.
Then they can vote their conscience.
Then, I believe, we'll get a lot of those.
I have hope again.
When I hear that, I'm like, yeah, that could really kind of work, couldn't it?
Well, the key to success here is to get people to vote for Rick Santorum.
So anyway, so he didn't, that was the key to the whole interview.
There was one little thing at the end, though, that I thought was kind of interesting about how Ron Paul decided not to use Secret Service.
And his rationale is just so consistent with everything he says, which I think is his real appeal, which he doesn't, he doesn't change his, you know, he doesn't go with the tide.
He has his opinion about stuff and that's what he sticks with.
Now, why did you reject the Secret Service Protection?
It seems like that would be a...
Well, it's a form of welfare.
You know, you're having the taxpayers pay to take care of somebody.
I'm an ordinary citizen, and I would think I should pay for my own protection.
And it costs, I think, more than $50,000 a day to protect those individuals.
That's a lot of money.
$50,000 a day to protect...
This was $300,000 a month.
Yeah.
Cool.
And the Secret Service pays for it.
Actually, what, 50,000 times, I'm sorry, times 30 would be 150,000.
But it's ridiculous.
Well, it's times two, so it's 300,000 for the two guys.
Three guys.
Yeah, but they only do two.
Does Newt get protection too?
I don't know.
Maybe he does.
Why wouldn't he?
Someone sent me a clip from this Leno thing, which I thought was just funny.
And I, you know, when he's political and all that, it's great.
But when he gets cynically political...
And makes jokes?
That's when I really fall in love with this guy.
Too late for people like Jeb Bush or Chris Christie to get into the race?
I guess theoretically not, but practically speaking, it's not going to happen.
Something very unusual would happen.
I don't think that's going to happen.
There were these rumors going around that there was some sort of secret deal with you and Mitt Romney.
You seem to be very friendly during a couple of debates.
Anything to that?
There's something about it.
It's very secret because he and I don't know a whole lot about it.
But, you know, there has been talk a little bit, and the big deal I have to consider is whether I want to be a czar or head of the Federal Reserve.
That's good.
I like that.
By the way, I want to correct myself real quick before this goes on and somebody writes in.
It's not $150,000.
What am I thinking?
I knew that now was wrong.
It's $1.5 million a month to protect Rick Santorum.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And another $1.5 million a month to protect Romney and possibly another one.
This is like the way we throw money away.
No wonder the country's got nobody.
It's ridiculous.
This is not value for value in my book.
No.
No.
So, meanwhile, the real Federal Reserveist, well, Timothy Geithner is, of course, the Treasury, not the Federal Reserve.
He was being grilled by Representative Congressman Gowdy.
Well, I hope you got something, because I watched this and fell asleep two or three times.
Yeah, I know.
Oh, man, I'm telling you.
It's very hard sometimes.
It's been on for hours.
Have you been taking the Cimbala again?
You've got to quit that.
Cimbala.
Yeah, whatever.
Hours and hours.
Yeah, it's very, very long.
And by the way, did you notice Bernanke with his hand to his face?
He looked more bored than Lisa Jackson when she was giving testimony.
He was just like, oh, do I have to be here?
Man, I'd be smoking a cigar someplace.
Yeah, living it up with some hookers.
Yeah, I know.
I'm looking still for quotes from Bernanke.
He did say something about the gold standard.
Where he said, to have a gold standard, you have to go to South Africa or someplace and dig up tons of gold and move it to New York and put it in the basement of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
That's a lot of effort and work.
Yeah, sure.
But Timmy was being grilled by Gaudi.
And Gaudi's saying, look, if we didn't raise...
Of course, we're going to have another debt ceiling raise.
It's time, once again.
This will be the third in less than a year.
Yeah, and let me ask you a question.
Sure.
Why was there such a fuss over that first one, no fuss over the next one, and there probably won't be a fuss over this one.
What's the deal?
Because they wanted to...
Remember, that was about getting the XL... No, that wasn't that time.
No, I don't know.
I don't know.
There was nothing else on.
Smash wasn't running yet.
They didn't have a good alternative on television.
So the question is...
If we did not raise the debt limit any more ever, how much money would we need just to supplement our revenues, i.e.
tax, and our debt payments moving forward?
Which I think might be considered a great question.
...that amount of time.
The larger the number you create, the...
But again, the debt limit doesn't decide how much we can borrow.
You decide how much we can borrow because every year you decide...
How much debt would we need to meet current and future obligations, assuming the status quo?
Indefinitely.
Well, that I'd be happy to get you in writing.
I can't do it in my head, though.
How about a round number?
No, no idea.
I just can't do it in writing.
But if your question is, is that if Congress authorized no additional increase in spending or revenues forever, how much do we have to borrow?
I can do that question in math, but I've got to...
Twenty trillion?
I just can't do it in my head.
Fifty trillion?
I don't know.
I've seen you work before.
You're smart.
You're quick.
Not smart enough.
A lot?
Can we agree it'd be a lot?
It would be a lot.
It would make you uncomfortable.
Hey, that sounds bad.
That does not sound very good.
Make you uncomfortable.
Make you uncomfortable.
Thanks, Timmy.
That's really nice of you.
The Euro.
So there is actually quite a bit happening over in Euroland that I've been following because we have the 23rd will be tomorrow.
And actually the 25th is apparently the big day.
I've been reading some Greek blogs.
Do you know what they do when the politicians and these banksters and technocrats walk out in public?
Like from their car into the safety of their building.
And it sounds illogical once you hear about it.
They throw yogurt.
And so everyone is stocking up on yogurt.
You sure it's yogurt?
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, yogurt.
You know, Greek yogurt.
They're famous for their yogurt.
Yeah.
Greek yogurt.
Yeah.
Well, Greek yogurt is a little different, by the way, and I would recommend people use Greek yogurt because it's a thicker, strained product.
You get more for your money.
Yeah.
And so on the 25th, which is Greece's Independence Day, everyone will be throwing yogurt at what they call the Greco-Kleptocrats.
So, of course, we're looking.
I was thinking that March 23rd would be the final annihilation of Greece, but the IMF, they've moved it down the road three more months.
New report from the International Monetary Fund on Greece requires 12 billion euros more austerity measures to close the funding gap.
The IMF expects Greece to pass new measures, otherwise they'll withhold the next tranche of aid to Greece due in three months.
Now, PIMCO, a very interesting company, they basically write all these sovereign bonds.
I'm sure there are others to do it, but PIMCO is kind of the bond company that does all these deals, right?
And I didn't know that Neil Kashkari had gone to PIMCO. And Neil Kashkari, we'll remember, was the assistant or deputy secretary of the Treasury during the bailout.
And he, of course, is an ex-Goldman guy.
Remember this guy, this Neil Kashkari, we laughed about him, Kashkari?
Cash and Carry.
Cash and Carry.
And a real douchebag.
And if you ever watch that HBO snow job about the bailout, you know, he's all over it.
So he's at PIMCO now, and he was on, I think, CNBC. And here's what he was saying.
Basically, the news is not good.
Lack of reaction.
Yeah, I think that the markets have priced in, delayed.
So, like you said, a partial solution, an orderly default right now.
But again, we don't think that Greece is going to be able to actually deliver on the austerity measures that they're promising.
And they have an election coming up.
And so it could be the election that triggers, that reignites the crisis.
Once policymakers around the Eurozone recognize that they're going to need to bail out Greece again, another restructuring, Portugal is likely going to need another bailout.
Those are the types of things that could catalyze sentiment to swing back to risk-off.
And so we're very focused on buying individual stocks that we like that have less direct exposure to these shocks coming out of the Eurozone.
And Spain is also...
Now everyone's starting to muddle about Spain, but Spain...
It's pretty much what I'm reading is saying, no, we're not going to do any austerity.
We're not going to play with your game.
And they should.
Essentially, the whole country's been in austerity mode for years, ever since there's no employment there.
It's a mess.
They can't cut back anymore.
What are they supposed to do?
Burning their clothes as fuel?
I mean, come on.
A childhood friend of mine lives there and works near Barcelona.
A Dutch guy.
And I spoke to him.
I called him on his birthday, beginning of the month.
And he said, it was quite interesting.
He's like, ah, it's really.
He said, you know, if my doorbell rings, I have to look out the upstairs window because people are just getting jacked in their houses now.
And they'll just clobber you in the street and take whatever you've got.
You know, your clothes, literally.
And he said, you know, he looked at his paycheck and I don't know what he makes.
He's an executive at like some tchotchke company.
But he said they took an extra 311 euros out of his paycheck to help pay for the austerity measures.
It's like, wow.
That's a lot.
Yeah.
311 euros.
I was like, wow.
But he said, well, I think it's good.
We should be doing this.
We've got to help each other.
You socialist prick, I said.
I hung up on him.
You hung up on him.
You did not.
No, I did not.
Anyways, in Greece now, of course, they're accelerating the sale.
We've been waiting for this.
Accelerating the sale of 227 billion euros in Greek assets, including the energy and gas companies.
Number one bidder has finally presented itself, Gazprom, the Russians.
They're first in line, so there's still no official buyer yet, but we're looking for that.
One-third of all of the land in Greece is now up for sale.
One-third.
One-third of it.
And as a part of this, some interesting things are happening.
Greece is now, there's this internet-based cashless network, and the unit is called the TEMS, T-E-M-S. And so essentially it's like a virtual currency that you can use to trade services with each other.
And I think we should watch this because it's very interesting.
The site, unfortunately, is in Greek, so I don't understand any of it.
It's Greek to you.
Yeah.
But it's really interesting how basically they can't do anything else but start to trade services virtually.
You know, like a dentist, you can wash his car and he'll clean your teeth.
And then the final thing from the BBC, and this is what really blew me away.
So the vibe in most of Europe, and I speak to a lot of Europeans, is those lazy-ass Greeks, right?
You would agree that's kind of what it's come down to.
Well, that's what the, yeah, you get that impression from essentially the xenophobic, I mean, this shows you why Europe is not going to work.
Because essentially they still have these cultural divides between North and South and the various countries.
France and Germany still don't get each other.
In fact, their educational systems in both countries is extremely different and they're going to try to consolidate them.
It's not possible.
So the BBC published numbers from the OECD, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.
And let me bring up the whole chart here for a second, because it was fascinating.
It's number of hours each of the slaves works in Euroland.
So I'll give you the top five.
Most hours worked, and we can also do the most productive if you want.
So number five on most hours worked is Turkey.
Number four is Estonia.
Number three is Poland.
Number two is Hungary.
And who do you think is number one in most hours worked with an average of, let me see, 2,017 hours per year more than any other European country?
Greek.
Yeah, Greece.
Fewest hours?
Number one, the Netherlands.
Number two, Germany.
Number three, Norway.
Then France.
So it's upside down.
And the Netherlands, I know they're a bunch of lazy suckers there.
But wow, I mean, so they work more than any other population in Europe, according to the report.
Is that chart going to be on the show notes?
You got it?
Yeah.
Yeah, that's a good one.
393.nashownotes.com Now, of course, Poland...
So what's the rationale?
What do people look at this chart and say?
Well, the lazy Greeks?
I mean, what are they going to say?
I don't know.
But, you know, these are just the real numbers.
This whole thing is rigged, by the way.
We may have some new listeners.
This is rigged, this whole thing.
And it's rigged so we can get some oil and gas through Greece without paying off any of the Greeks.
I was reading an interesting article, a very long article, but I got one passage out of it.
The euro's purpose was not to facilitate the creation of a Europe of trans frontier love, peace and harmony.
Really boosted trade and economic efficiency, but to attack the economic, social and political gains of working people accumulated over two centuries in the most bitter struggles.
What is happening in country after country, starkest of all in Greece, Ireland, Portugal, but also just as visibly to anyone who is paying attention in Britain is nothing less than the opening salvos of a new, more intense and dangerous, dangerous phase of class warfare.
I thought that was a pretty accurate statement.
I wouldn't argue against it.
I think there is an element of class warfare in all this, especially what's going on in Europe.
With all those pretentious a-holes that run the European Parliament.
Yeah.
So anyway, as we get into our donation segment, I wanted to play something.
You probably heard the report or read about this.
This is from NPR, National Treasure.
Now NPR, for those of you who don't know how NPR is supposed to work, they give you the impression that your donations help the show.
And that they don't do anything like advertising.
They have underwriting and sponsorships and all of these kind of things.
And of course the government money was only like 3% or something, so no one gives a crap about that.
But meanwhile, they're a pretty big operation.
And they're doing quite well, thank you very much.
But they still guilt you into these huge donation drives and it's all bull crap.
Now, if there's one thing that really stands out in commercial media is when you do segments on your advertisers.
We see this all the time on commercial television and radio.
Yeah, and you see, especially like on 60 Minutes, they'll have a report highlighting a new movie that just so happens to be part of the Viacom family in some way.
Exactly.
Which is, you know, who owns CBS.
So NPR has 175 corporate underwriters that they had over their last fiscal year.
175.
Now, it wouldn't be too hard, I don't think, to have a spreadsheet and track all these 175 sponsors.
Although...
The head of sponsorship underwriting says, it would be a logistical nightmare and senseless use of time on air and space online to repeat a rote statement about a company being a sponsor each time one of the 175 are mentioned in a story.
Okay, so that would be a disclaimer.
And what a waste of time to say, hey, by the way, these guys sponsor NPR. I mean, what did that take, two seconds?
Wow, what a waste of time.
What a waste of online space, which, by the way, I think is pretty much unlimited, your amount of online space.
Yeah.
This is...
What a crock!
This is all things considered.
A fine, outstanding program from your national treasure, the start of the show.
Alright, here we are at the end of a long day.
You might be feeling like...
Tired sucks.
You've seen these ads.
They play over and over and over again.
Yeah, on NPR. Again on cable and online.
They hawk a product that claims to repair your tired days.
5-Hour Energy fixes tired.
Fast.
One shot.
Back to work.
Problem solved.
5-Hour Energy.
Fix the tired.
So you've seen the ads, and maybe you've picked up one of those little red-yellow plastic bottles next to the Us Weekly at the convenience store.
But you might not know much about the man behind the caffeine-laced energy shot.
This is my favorite.
Bring on the owner of the company.
Bring on the people who are running the show of a sponsor.
His name is Manoj Bhargava.
And Claire O'Connor, a staff writer at Forbes, learned more about this mystery drink and the mystery man behind it.
Welcome, Claire.
Hi, thanks for having me.
Well, to start, I'm going to crack open a five-hour energy because I actually don't drink coffee.
How awesome is this?
So, while I may have tasted this once, I don't think I've knocked back a shot.
Well, I'm glad you're doing it in front of me.
They have the thing mics.
You can hear her opening it up and guzzling.
Listen, listen.
Because you did it in front of him, right?
I did.
I did it at his conference room table in suburban Detroit for the first time, and I've got to tell you...
For the next two weeks, I was hooked.
Okay, so are you supposed to do it in one?
I was hooked.
It was so good.
One full goal?
Yeah, one fell swoop.
Just get it down.
All right, here we go.
Not delicious, is it?
So, they do a whole story on one of their major advertisers for like five minutes and they couldn't say, oh by the way, they sponsor NPR, they're an underwriter, advertiser, whatever you want to call it.
They couldn't do that.
This is an outrageous scam.
It's an outrageous scam.
I mean, I would be loving to drink a Starbucks or something on the show and get paid for it and disclaim it.
Yeah, tens of thousands of dollars.
Yeah, well, that ain't gonna happen.
I'm gonna show my support by donating to no agenda.
Imagine all the people who could do that.
Oh, yeah, that'd be fab.
Yeah, on no agenda.
Suck it down!
In the morning.
That is devart.org slash NA for the people who hate what they're trying to pull the wool over your eyes on these operations.
We do not do any of that.
And do you think they said it's a piece of shit product?
No.
It is pretty...
You know, by the way, we got a hate letter, finally.
Oh, hey, this has been a long time.
Big, long rant about how we should take advertisers and he's sick of listening to us beg for money and all the rest of it.
And then he says, complaining, I think it was somehow he got passed over for a birthday mention and never wrote back, because we usually do make goods on those.
Generally speaking, we don't miss too many birthdays.
So, anyways, I think that's what he's really mad about, because that little gripe was buried in his 25...
Things that were reasons people shouldn't donate.
Then he goes on about how full of crap I am.
This was what bugged me the most because it was a factual thing.
He says, Dvorak's full of crap.
You can't mix butane in gasoline.
When I talked about the various blends.
So I said, well, you know, I know they do that because I used to work at an oil refinery unlike him.
But I wasn't sure what the current, what the state of the art was.
And so I did it.
And he can go Google this if he's still listening.
I'm sure he is.
The Google search is butane component of gasoline.
And what I did find out is the current...
In the summertime, the butane component is 2% butane in a gallon of gasoline.
And in the winter, because it's colder and the vapor pressure has to change or the gasoline won't vaporize right, the butane component in gasoline is 10%.
John, I would have believed you.
You don't have to, like...
I'm just saying.
I just want this guy to go look these things up before he starts blasting us for being...
You know, and then he also complained about eating food on the air.
Hey, hold on one second, John.
I have here a nice bottle of Santorum frothy mix.
And I'm going to have a swig right now.
Did you actually make some Santorum?
Mmm.
Have you actually made that drink?
You know, we do have the recipe.
We gotta put that recipe in one.
I'm drinking our own No Agenda bottled frothy mix.
The Santorum.
Not a sponsor of the No Agenda program.
Nope.
Alright, so let's thank some people that did help us out here.
Alright, here we go.
I'm sure we can do that.
Let me just get it ready here.
You've got Carmen.
Hey, Citizen.
Reverse combo.
I've heard better.
But he says, let's go, listeners.
Support the show.
Don't be a douchebag, Sir Robert.
It was valid.
It was a good one.
I'd like to be a citizen followed by the...
But that's okay.
It was fine.
Okay.
Well, now I feel bad.
Hey, citizen.
I feel bad.
You've got karma.
I don't think he got gypped or something.
No, he didn't get gypped, but I did.
Good.
Because I'm expecting a certain kind of a flair.
Moving right along.
Adam Schmidt, Minnetonka, Minnesota.
$101.01.
Can't get enough of the...
I can't thank you enough for the hours you've spent creating the NoGen to show you've...
Change the way I consume news and especially media and entertainment.
Please send a special karma to my sweet lady, Genja the Ninja.
You've got karma.
He also wants a No Agenda anthem, which we did play at the beginning of today's show.
William Cannonberg, Portage, or Portage, probably, in Minnesota.
No, not Minnesota.
Michigan, $99.99.
Niner, niner, niner, niner!
Thanks for making my commute worthwhile.
90% of Michigan primary voters who did not vote for Dr.
Ron Paul are douchebags.
Douchebag!
Indeed.
Nicholas Oman in Thief River Falls, Minnesota.
A lot of Minnesotans today.
70-70.
Been listening for a month or two now.
Felt like I should really give you guys some money, so here goes.
I figured I would $1.01 up those guys giving $69.69 and just ask for some generic relationship karma.
I'd also like to point out about the UN stuff from last Saturday with the tax-based...
Off the country's GDP, I really think it was about preventing someone like Ron Paul from coming in and pulling out all the funding we're giving every other country out there.
By the way, he did mention that quite a bit on the Leno show.
Pulling out all the funding we're giving every other country out there since it was just saying you must give other countries support in that amount.
So give him a karma.
Yes, absolutely.
Good relationship karma.
You've got karma.
It looks like this may be the last week for the 69.69 because we had Seth Harper coming in from Morgantown, West Virginia.
It's $70.
He wants a super slide whistle roulette karma from last week.
Oh, that was for him.
Worked out okay.
I only got to play for an hour and 33 was the only number that hit.
And it hit twice.
So here's 70 bucks.
What?
That's more than just a little offhanded mention, my friend.
That's a big deal.
That was amazing.
Also, on the way back coming through the Vegas airport, I chose a security line with a hot chick at the end.
She went and opted out.
And of course, I was going to anyway.
As we were sitting standing on the side, the TSI guy said, you know, it's the same as a cell phone.
I said, no, I don't know that.
And how do you know that?
Look how much bigger than a cell phone the thing is.
He just shrugged his shoulders.
Put that thing up to your head then, if it's the same.
I like that one.
That's a good one.
That thing's a little bigger than a cell phone, you a-hole.
It looks a little bigger to me.
That's a good one.
Oh, a super slide whistle karma.
Oh.
He's got karma.
Although I guess you already got it, so maybe you should go play again.
Send us more.
That's what I was thinking.
Or we'll have to start drinking more frothy mixes.
Yale Oswowski in Concord, North Carolina.
Uh-oh!
69-69.
And it's pronounced Yael.
Yael Azowski.
Yael.
Yael Azowski.
Okay.
He's in Charlotte.
Nice town, by the way.
Dear John, Adam, Aless, I'm able to contribute to the program that constantly cuts through the manufactured propaganda and what others call news after years of indoctrination at the university or at university.
Just getting by on the slave wages of internships, now is the best time to donate to the program.
Tell the slaves to visit libertyinexile.com for some millennial media assassination and listen for it.
Mondays on noagendastream.com.
Hopefully this donation could bring some karma that is much needed as I hear back from my first job interview in Dallas.
You've got karma.
Right on.
It's a good show, actually, Liberty in Exile.
It is.
Millennial media assassination.
It's stuff that we're too old for.
Okay.
Peter Meyer in Cypress, Texas.
Another guy right down the street from me there.
6969.
Here we go.
What am I saying?
No, normally I sleep for a few hours, wake up for a few, then sleep again until it's time to wake up and be a good slave.
Recently I've been listening to the same old No Agenda podcast to fill the time and have fallen back asleep doing so.
It's pretty funny having all the memes brought into my dreams.
Not a bad site.
Memestodreams.com.
In a recent dream, I had a fine little MILF reading me passages from Atlas Shrugged before looking me in the eyes and telling me she wanted to propagate the formula.
If you know what I mean.
After hearing about Adam's recent marketing video for Mattel, I'm fearful his agent is going to start booking him for class of 83 high school reunions.
And it hit me.
Adam should get into the subliminal audio business.
Stop smoking.
Stop smoking.
Get smoking hot.
I think we have something here.
Not drunk yet, but working on it.
Here's a domain I got for you just in case.
No subliminalagenda.com.
Hope the great work, especially the pipeline research.
Hook me up with one of the hot milf baby karmas.
Oh, hold on.
That's a different one.
That's one hot milf baby.
Okay, I got it.
I wasn't expecting that.
Sorry.
That's one hot milf baby.
You've got karma.
Ryan Cornwell in Jamestown, Ohio, 6969.
No comment.
I have a look in the email.
Maybe there's something there.
Lionel Hendricks in Alexandria, Virginia.
Another 6969.
Happy 18th birthday, Chance Pants.
Guys, can you please give Chance some karma for her 18th birthday?
She's now a fully legal slave of Gitmo Nation West.
She's going to need it.
You've got karma.
Car racer in Shakopee, Minnesota.
Another Minnesota-in.
5828 from James in Shakopee.
Donating 5828 to celebrate the ages of my father and I will turn on March 23rd.
Best birthday present he ever got.
Karma for my dad's heart issue would also be appreciated.
A few comments into question.
One, tell Adam to stop sparking his lighter near the mic.
It's annoying.
Two, you guys sound like the Fox News idiots when you talk about video games.
Yes.
At least we have hot legs, so what do you care?
Yeah, true.
When do we talk about video games?
I don't know.
Where does Adam suggest about learning more about the Illuminati?
Is there any good Illuminati-based fiction books?
5828.
I have a website for you.
HollywoodIlluminati.com.
There you go.
That's a fun one.
Good enough.
Wait, does he need karma?
Yeah, heart karma for his dad.
Oh, heart.
Yeah.
You've got karma.
Daniel Kruse in Zurich, Switzerland.
5816 in the morning from Zurich, Switzerland.
I think it's like 10 euros.
I'd like to send a hey citizen double didn't did douchebag A double, say, citizen, double douchebag, I guess, to my brewski Steph for beating me to the donation.
Ah, let the inner tubes know he has won.
Okay, well, I'm going to do a douchebag huntsman douchebag karma then.
That'll probably sound...
He said, hey, citizen, douchebag.
Oh, hey, citizen?
Oh, hey, citizen, douchebag.
Wow, okay.
Douchebag!
Hey, citizen!
You've got karma.
You're requesting too much of the driver here.
Yeah, that was too much.
William Bryant, Converse, South Carolina, 5555 in the morning with my recent TSA groping and the USA Today brainwashing what appears at my hotel door every day.
I'd be an idiot not to increase my donation via my recent stealings from the federal theft program, IRS.
I am very pleased with the number of donations I'm hearing from the former slave capital of the United States, having once passed it on to D.C., including two recent nights I recognize as having recommended your show.
And would like to call out the remaining non-donating Carolina listeners as douchebags.
Douchebag.
With the side of Hot Pockets jingle since I met Adam and he's smoking a hot fiance in the 2008 tour.
We Carolinians are natural no agenda crackpots, no conflict.
As a challenge, I will increase my monthly contribution $5 for every new Carolinian who gets in at least $11.11 monthly donation.
Get to it and the South show rise again.
Love you guys.
Why?
Because you're the only sanity on the airwaves.
Adios, mofos.
And he'd like to hear more whoopum at the end of the show.
Well, thank you very much, William.
That's very kind of you.
And yeah, the South will rise once again, now that I'm here.
Christopher Shue in St.
Martin, Minnesota.
Wow, Minnesota's winning today.
What's happening?
Double nickels on the dime.
Some karma shot for his mother as she goes into the hospital today on a possible heart issue.
Oh yeah, heart karma as always.
You've got karma.
Scott Rezepka in Villa Park, Illinois, 5510, just finished a beta version of my website, BackyardOctoberFest.com, and thought a donation was due since you provided hours of entertainment while I was coding.
That's some messed up code, dude.
You better get that reviewed.
I also, well, it might make you bring the adrenaline up, get him to code faster.
I also added a No Agenda banner ad to the site so drunken slaves could find the show.
Oh, cool.
Happy halfway to Oktoberfest.
Prost.
All right.
If I make any money off the site, you'll get a kickback.
You've got karma.
Karma for your BackyardOctoberfest.com, my friend.
Cameron DeMay in Fort Myers, Florida.
Double nickels on the dime.
My wife says we can't afford to donate.
I said we can't afford not to.
Can I get a Hey Citizen Lone Wolf call-off from my comrade and monthly subscriber Bolt?
Oh, okay.
Let me see.
How do we do that?
Hey Citizen!
Right on.
That's a new one.
I like that.
Yeah, he wants more gay huntsman wires.
Tim Schallberger in Bend, Oregon.
Bend over Oregon.
5510.
Double nickels on the dime for the best podcast in the universe.
How about some slide whistle karma for the great exciting things coming up for me soon.
Keep up the great work, Tim.
We've got karma.
Aaron Schnee, Lincoln, Nebraska, no comment, 5510, double nickels on a dime, Mike Potter Lake, St.
Louis, Missouri.
It's a pledge week here in St.
Louis, which reminded me to donate to the real national treasure, the No Agenda Show, the best podcast in the universe.
Thank you.
And we don't have to drink anything to prove it.
Exactly.
Mike, although we drink tea and coffee.
Mm-hmm.
Andrew Richter from Wayne, Michigan, 5210.
Thanks for the great research you do.
I'll just ask for a little new job karma heading to a job I hate.
Well, working forward to an interview tomorrow.
Please also give me a douchebag as I've been listening for three years and this is my first donation, so I still feel like a douche.
Douchebag!
Well, here you go, my friend.
New job karma.
You've got karma.
Next time you bring in some help, we'll give you a dedouching.
Matt Milligan, Sparks, Nevada.
Sparks, Nevada.
5150.
In the morning, you're still making the donation of 5150 as I will be placed in an involuntary psychiatric hold, 5150, by the U.S. government when they find out I've been listening to and believing the no agenda profits.
I would like a dollop of karma for my wife Sarah, daughter Elena, and little human resource nestled in the womb.
Also the karma I requested a while back for helping Jake Kirsten and myself make it to the Nevada State Caucus as delegates for Ron Paul worked!
We're fired up and ready to go kick some establishment ass in Reno in May as there was a large amount of state delegates for Paul.
Just a little factoid.
Nevada has picked the winners of all but one of the last 25 presidential elections.
We picked Gerald Ford over Jimmy Carter in 76.
Thanks for the value for value style.
It's the way of the future.
You've got karma.
David Johnson in Browntown, Wisconsin.
5150.
That's interesting.
We normally get a lot of 5150, but we've got a bunch.
I think it's because we mentioned on the last show.
Listening to the show 392 as I milk the cows.
Really?
Code 5150 suits me just fine.
So here's 5150.
Put it toward Wisconsin.
I noticed a few weeks ago you had a rash of Wisconsin donors.
I suggest you pull these donations and pit the states against each other.
I like that idea.
Yeah, like the Greek.
You lazy-ass Greeks.
Hey, you stupid Wisconsinites.
Hey, you're lazy.
You're no good.
Look, Texas is kicking your ass.
A little competition is a good thing.
If you retroactively include those other Wisconsin donations, I'll bet you we're ahead of Texas and California.
By the way, today's my birthday.
Put him on the birthday list.
Oh, he's not on?
No, we missed him.
All right.
He's on.
That's why I very rarely miss birthdays, because even when they're not picked up, we pick them up.
He's on the list.
Oh, is he?
Yep.
Oh, there it is.
I'm sorry.
Podcast for Peace in Alamo, California, 5150.
Please mention Podcast for Peace.
Andrew Gardner, Avenue, Maryland, 5150.
Wow.
In the morning, this donation goes out to Jason Russell to buy some new pants.
Please send some karma to Dr.
Paul.
You've got karma.
Buy some new pants.
Hey, buddy, Jason.
Hey, buy some new pants.
Get some pants, will ya?
They're noticing.
They're noticing.
Joseph Mantel, Port Moody, British Columbia, 5150.
Dvorak and Corey, greetings from Gitmo Nation North.
I've been enjoying the deconstructions and opportunities to sharpen the mind after 13 years of schooling and university education has taken a while to undo the damage done to the critical faculties.
Nowadays, it's fun to discover that the world isn't quite what you thought it was because now it makes more sense.
Exactly.
Would you please send a hey citizen out to John who got me switched onto the show and a karma shot for my dog, Harry Boy, who has to spend more time than usual alone at home this week.
Appreciate that.
Hey citizen.
You've got karma.
John Calvin Jones in British Columbia.
$50.
I've not donated in nearly two years.
Please de-douche me.
I'm presently working in BC on a temporary contract.
Should get rehired but cannot take any chances.
So here's $50.
All I can afford given my precarious employment status.
So please issue a little job.
Karma, you guys helped me last spring without a donation because you're the best podcast in the universe.
And by the way, Canada will soon look like Greece, Italy, or much of the Gitmo states.
If people refuse to vote for the NWO Canadian Action Party, Canada is heavily in debt to the IMF and private banks are vaccinating people like crazy and peanut allergies are skyrocketing.
Even though Canadian heater Fraser proved that peanut oil is used as a medium in vaccines.
Thank you again.
John Calvin Jones, Ph.D., Professor of Statistics and Criminology.
Wow, de-douching and karma for the prof.
You've been de-douched.
You've got...
Very nice.
I want to thank the professor and all the rest of our donors, by the way, for helping us on Show 393.
That is very much appreciated, and we hope to continue the work that we do.
Please go to work.
Hold on.
Before you do that, I've got one more thing.
Oh, we have another one?
Yeah, Kiss Cut sent a note.
He says, Hey Adam and John, it's me, Kisscut, the man who started the 129 years meme for you by sending in the New World Order clip, episode 3, 9, or 0.
I'm really hoping you get many $129 donations from this.
Well, we've gotten...
Zero.
We got none.
You don't have to mention this on the air, but you two got so sidetracked when mentioning my donation that you did not get through the entirety of my note where I kindly requested a de-douching as well as a shot of karma for a new endeavor that I've started.
As well, all know the No Agenda Karma works and I donated because I love y'all, so I feel pretty bad about that.
And I did like the $129 donation level, but that really hasn't worked out too.
So here's your de-douche and your karma.
You've been de-douche.
You've got karma.
Yes.
So we want to remind everyone to go to Dvorak.org slash NA to keep the show going and keeping the bills paid so that we don't get somebody knocking on the door.
Yeah, like the bill collector.
And remember us.
And we also want to, by the way, I want to thank everyone who's donated in smaller amounts so not everyone can afford a 50 or 200 or 1,000 or whatever.
Most people, you know, they have some leftover money in their PayPal account or they have maybe $20, $30 that they're not going to spend or they take a look at their parking meter bill and decide that, you know, they can...
Money could be better spent if they walked to work and sent us what they'd be dropping in.
Rip off parking meters.
Which, by the way, you know, parking meters began as a timing device.
Yeah, we know.
Okay.
Yeah, we know.
Now, I do realize that...
I'm seeing a lot of new names, and that's really nice, and people are stepping up to the bar.
Somehow, it's impossible, of course, to measure our actual audience.
We don't know.
It's probably 2% that is actually donating.
Maybe even less, right?
Didn't you once figure out some numbers that was probably 1.5% or something?
2% is a pretty classic kind of...
Yeah.
I mean, it would be nice if we had...
10% would be easy street, but the people that donate, we want to thank them profusely.
And a lot of them donate more than once, and some people are essentially patrons, and we want to thank them a lot.
I also want to mention something about the gripe letter that we got, the guys moaning about the donation segment being too long sometimes.
The donation segment is also entertaining.
I think it is.
We have some funny letters.
People give us anecdotes about the TSA experiences.
We have commentary during the donation segments.
It's not just begging for money.
We're thanking people, and then we beg for money for like two seconds by saying go to Dvorak.org.
That's where we ask for the money.
The rest of it is just thanking people.
It's a waste of time, huh?
You know what, John?
Forget it.
We should just be drinking Red Bull or whatever the hell that crap is.
They make so much money on that Red Bull promotion.
It's ridiculous.
Five-hour energy drink, whatever it is.
Of course they do.
That's right.
Five-hour energy.
And, of course, you know that the sales guy went out to the Red Bull guys and said, Hey, look what we're doing over here.
Yeah.
Look what we did here for these guys.
How come you don't come up to the plate?
And by the way, we won't do any negative stories about mixing it with vodka and people getting shit-faced.
It'd be great.
Yeah.
And how can you trust an outfit that does that?
How can you trust the next story?
That's all I... I mean, my big revelation came when I saw an interview with me in...
I think it was the New York Times, even.
I was like, they didn't get anything right.
Nothing.
Now, we get a lot of things wrong, but at least we're giving you some real information.
And there's just not a lot of places.
You can go check this stuff out yourself and reinterpret it.
We sent a letter out this week that I said, you know...
Read through that executive order yourself and see if you come up with it.
Read through it.
Maybe there's something that will trigger a thought in you that maybe we're overlooking.
We like to make this an interactive show.
We are two guys talking to each other with people listening in.
That's the basic model.
But we're not oblivious to everybody out there.
But did you see anything about that executive order on the news anywhere?
One single mention?
No.
No.
The closest I came to it was I was coming, I went up to, I was driving around on Sunday, and I think it was, and I was listening to one of the Sunday talk shows, the people that really can't get on during the week, and somebody, it was a call-in show, right-wing call-in show, and they called in this person, And they mentioned it.
And I almost sound like a no agenda listener because they were pretty much discussing what our points were.
And the woman who ran the show says, I'd never heard of this.
I'll look into it.
And then that was the end.
I'll get back to you.
We'll respond to you in our written commentary.
And I still see nothing except there are these natural food people that have apparently caught wind of it.
But they're all looking at it from their one single perspective, which is just to shut down small farms, organic farmers and hobbyist farms.
Well, anyway, so we really do work at it.
And it's all we do.
And the only way we keep alive is through our value for value model.
But it is the future.
This is the way you will determine what is actually valuable to you.
And you'll start giving up things pretty soon.
You'll start giving up cable.
You'll start giving up other bull crap that you absolutely do not need.
Dvorak.org slash NAP. Alright, well of course we have Sir Mark Dithen congratulating Dame Astrid turning her special number birthday tomorrow.
And lots of karma and good luck to you Dame Astrid.
We love you very much.
Peter Meir congratulates himself celebrating his birthday on the 27th.
Lionel Hendricks congratulates Chance Pants, who turned 18.
James Car Racer says happy birthday to his dad, who celebrates tomorrow, and himself, both born on the same day, the 23rd.
And David Johnson says happy birthday to himself.
His birthday is today.
And thank you all for your support of the best podcast in the universe.
And then we have two knighthoods, John, which is nice to be able to bring those up since people have achieved knighthood status by way of the amount of their donations.
Hold on a second.
Hold on, I've got to put some WD-40 in this thing.
Okay, let's do it.
Very good.
Mitchell Sullivan and Victor Gregg, step forward.
You, my friends, will be receiving one of the last Knight Rings of the No Agenda Roundtable.
We will be stopping that promotion very soon.
Of course, it is just a small token of our appreciation for your donation in support of our value-for-value model.
So I hereby pronounce thee, Sir Mitchell and Sir Victor, Knights of the No Agenda Roundtable.
You know what's in store for you.
Hookers and Blow, Rent Boys and Chardonnay.
Booze and hot pants and wenches and beer right here at the round table.
And wherever you go, you will know that you are amongst friends.
It's true.
It's true.
Actually, you find two No Agenda listeners to get together and they have a great time.
Mickey really wants to do a 2009 Hot Pockets tour.
Heh heh.
Have you been talking to her?
No, I've said nothing to her about it.
Is there something going on?
She's just a woman that has it.
She liked it.
This is good for her.
She's from another country and she's adopting to this culture and she finds the people of the United States like most people in Europe do.
The public, the American public, the people you really run into on the road like that to be fantastic people.
True.
True.
A lot of support.
I just don't know if we want to do...
Well, we need a new mobile.
We need one that can get up the Rockies.
We need a...
Yeah.
Exactly.
I don't know.
Let me just do an up and down the Midwest.
Here's what I would think.
You can do Texas, and then up to Oklahoma is great.
Oklahoma is a great place.
And then you go to Arkansas is, I think, one of the prettiest states.
Well, you do have to go to the Ozarks.
Ozarks, yeah.
Ozarks are fantastic.
And there's some wineries up there.
It's amazing.
We want to go to Colorado.
We want to do Montana.
Montana is a long haul.
But you can get up to Montana.
I think you don't have to cross the Rockies.
If you stay on this side of the Rockies, You just go up and down, and then you bump up against the Rockies.
You don't have to go in the up and over.
The problem is, I know the Dutchess, what we were driving last time, would not have made it up the Rockies.
There's no way.
I think it would have overheated.
We were overheating in Pennsylvania.
Yeah.
So I don't know what to do.
We couldn't take the Mickey's 99 Range Rover, but then it gets really expensive because you've got to sleep in hotels.
Well, yeah, we can stay at people's houses.
Well, there are some innkeepers that are no agenda listeners.
Maybe you can get enough of them.
If there's like five or six that you could just go from inn to inn to inn up and then back down.
And you'd be done.
Wait a minute.
How did I get into planning this with you all of a sudden?
This is not a good thing.
Stop this.
Anyway, it's all over, ladies and gentlemen.
Yes!
Terror alert!
Terror, terror, terror!
Be very afraid!
Oh, oh, we're all gonna die!
A very startling testimony in Congress today, Wolf.
Current and former law enforcement intelligence officials saying that many of Hezbollah's operatives have been in the U.S. for years, blending in, making a lot of money.
A perfect resource for Iran if it's attacked and wants a quick counter-strike on the U.S. homeland.
Have you been following this testimony?
I've been following this.
It's ludicrous.
It's all the FBI, by the way.
It's the FBI who are saying it.
The FBI is pushing this.
I don't know what the deal is.
Well, yeah.
I mean, it's their whole raison d'etre.
It's the reason for their existence.
They keep pushing these stupid saps.
They goading them for years.
There's also a bunch of ex-CIA guys showing up all over the place.
Again, you don't know if these guys...
One guy was on Aaron Burnett.
After you're down at the Dirt Club, I'll play this one.
Well, let me finish this.
I could have gotten the testimony straight from C-SPAN, but the whole play on how Wolf and his Wolf, how funny is that, that the freaking guy's name is Wolf Blitzer and is talking about lone wolves.
The whole play-up of this thing is nuts.
It's called Iran's A-Team of Terrorism.
Hezbollah.
The A-Team of Terrorism.
A militant group that's killed more Americans than any other except Al-Qaeda.
With concerns about how Iran might retaliate if Israel bombs its nuclear installations, current and former law enforcement and intelligence officials tell Congress they've got new worries that Iran can tap into Hezbollah sympathizers and operatives who've been in the U.S. for years, lying low, and have them strike on U.S. soil.
Lying low.
Their sophistication, presence, and deep entrenchment in American society and business has the potential to provide a platform to support a more lethal capability that should be of concern to all Americans.
A platform, John.
A platform for more lethal capability.
Hezbollah.
Yeah, they're all here to kill us.
They're all lonely.
You know what?
So, you know, Robert Leather, one of our producers, he sent me a note and he said, have you ever watched the siege?
you And that's with Denzel Washington when he was still hot.
And that is a movie from 1998.
I didn't realize it was that old.
So this is pre-9-11.
And everything that is happening now is laid out in that movie.
We have terrorist cells, but they actually blow stuff up instead of the phony stuff that we've got.
It was incredible to see this movie that was basically prepping us for all the stuff that we're now supposed to be afraid of, which isn't actually happening.
And it's well worth it.
You can get it on Netflix.
I don't know, maybe I should kick myself for making this clip request, because we just played it last show.
Oh, I can't find it.
But I just think we need to play it one more time, because we can't play this clip enough.
Which is the clip about the road to Iran from...
Oh, General Wesley Clark?
Wesley Clark tells this story when he was running for president.
About ten days after 9-11, I went through the Pentagon and I saw Secretary Rumsfeld and Deputy Secretary Wolfowitz.
I went downstairs just to say hello to some of the people on the joint staff who used to work for me.
And one of the generals called me in.
He said, sir, you've got to come in and talk to me a second.
I said, well, you're too busy.
He said, no, no.
He says...
We've made the decision we're going to war with Iraq.
This was on or about the 20th of September.
I said, we're going to war with Iraq?
Why?
He said, I don't know.
He said, I guess they don't know what else to do.
So I said, well, did they find some information connecting Saddam to al-Qaeda?
He said, no, no.
He says, there's nothing new that way.
They've just made the decision to go to war with Iraq.
He said, I guess it's like we don't know what to do about terrorists, but we've got a good military and we can take down governments.
And he said, I guess if the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem has to look like a nail.
So I came back to see him a few weeks later, and by that time we were bombing in Afghanistan.
I said, are we still going to war with Iraq?
And he said, oh, it's worse than that.
He said, he reached over on his desk, he picked up a piece of paper, and he said, I just got this down from upstairs, meeting the Secretary of Defense's office today, and he said, this is a memo that describes how we're going to take out seven countries in five years, starting with Iraq, and then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and finishing off Iran.
Yeah, I love that clip.
It's a great clip.
It's every one of the countries.
We got Clooney involved.
Every one of the countries that he listed are the countries.
Yeah.
And the only country that's not listed on there that fell over was, well, I guess Egypt's not on there, but it was an accident.
And the other one, it started in Tunisia.
And nobody talks about Tunisia.
That's not part of the plan.
Or Bahrain.
Bahrain.
No, Bahrain's not only not part of the plan, but anyone who even thinks that they wanted to do any activity there, they get squashed by the Saudi army.
Yeah, because we got the formula.
That's not part of the plan.
The plan is what he just listed.
Yep, those are the ones.
Sudan, Somalia, Lebanon, Syria, everything.
You know that douche-knuckle Michael Scheuer, he's the ex-CIA guy who's on everywhere?
Sir.
Because everyone's sir constantly.
Yes, sir.
So he used to be on the Bin Laden team.
Of course.
It didn't exist.
Bin Laden, whatever.
He was on Russia Today, and he's changed his whole story now all of a sudden.
He's very entertaining.
I always perk up because I don't know who's telling him to say these things.
Well, now it seems like he's in the Ron Paul camp.
It's really strange.
Listen.
Washington's enemy is an enemy that doesn't exist.
We're fighting an Islamic enemy that Washington believes is out to kill us because we have elections, because we're free, because we have women in the workplace.
It's an enemy that doesn't exist.
It didn't exist when bin Laden was alive.
It doesn't exist now.
America is being attacked because of its foreign policy in the Muslim world, because of its support for Israel, because of its support for the Saudi police state, because of its presence on the Arab Peninsula.
And until we accept that, until Americans can say to each other, whether you support aid to Israel or not, our relationship with Israel is causing this war, we are not going to be able to defeat this enemy.
And Israel itself, as a country, is not the problem.
The real problem is the leaders of the Jewish American community in the United States who influence and corrupt our Congress to support Israel when we have no interest there.
Yeah, you're not going to be on TV much after that statement, dude.
Wow!
That was like, why don't you just...
That's pretty hardcore, isn't it?
Yeah, that's pretty close to just being anti-Semitic.
That just violates all the rules.
Oh yeah, enjoy Russia today because that's the only station you're going to be on after that one.
He's going to have a lot of trouble with it.
Yeah, well, because it's very...
You can't say these things.
Well, it's not only that.
Well, it's more than that.
There's other...
The Israeli thing is there's just not a bunch of Jewish leaders having us do things a certain way because the media is run by the Jews.
Which is basically what he said.
Yeah, which is what he's saying, which is what is not the case.
The case is that there is a larger scheme of things that's manipulating the media, the public, and everything else.
That has probably a lot more to do with the pipelines, which you talk about, than it does with the Jewish-Israeli state, which is being kept in a marginalized situation because of the weirdness of that region.
It's been going on that way since day one.
Let me just restate what I said, because the only reason I said he sounded like it was in Ron Paul's camp was because he talked about the blowback, not about the Jews running the media.
I was like...
Yeah, no, Ron Paul doesn't buy into that.
No, it's just the blowback.
But that's essentially where he's headed.
That's odd.
Weird, huh?
Well, you know, I don't know where that comes from.
Yeah, exactly.
Who knows?
Now, I have been following Sheriff Joe.
Arpaio.
This is the guy from Arizona.
And he has, right now he's saying, you know what, it's crazy that whenever I do anything, when I walk around my baseball bat and I get the prisoners out there working and I'm acting like a good warden, the media is all over me.
But now I'm starting to look into this Obama stuff about his birth certificate and more importantly, now this is important, John, this is very, very interesting, his selective service card.
And so this is, I mean, there's videos, there's, you know what, actually, I'm going to play this as an end of show clip, because the audio, it's the presentation that he presented during a press conference, and it will be fun to listen to, because they have the President Obama's Selective Service card from Hawaii, and it is stamped on July...
What is it?
I think July 29th, 80.
And his investigative team, which he was asked to do this, people actually said, please, Sheriff Joe, Sheriff Joe, you've got to do this.
You're the only guy we trust.
Is he a private detective now, besides being a warden?
Yeah, I guess.
He got five or six selective service cards from the same post office, and they're stamped with the full year, 1980, not just 80.
And when you look at it, it is so obviously a forgery.
One, because the post office always uses four digits for the date.
But what they did is they got a stamp from 2008, a rubber stamp, cut out the 8 and the 0, reversed them, put them back in.
And so President Obama's Selective Service card literally has a stamp on it that says July 29th, 8-0.
And, you know, I gotta say, this is not small.
To me, this is...
And the whole birther thing, whatever.
But this looks like it could be an actual fraudulent document.
And as end of show, I'd like to play this...
But where's this thing come from?
The problem with fraudulent documents that keep showing up, it's like the Bush thing that got Dan Rather fired, is that often a fraudulent document is produced by the person...
Trying to make somebody else look like they created the fraudulent document and then they slip it into the stream.
So I would create the document and then push it into the stream to make it look like Obama's passing off a fraudulent document when in fact he's not.
Is there a possibility that that's going on?
Of course.
Because that's very common as a dirty trick.
Of course it's possible.
Of course.
But it doesn't mean...
It doesn't mean that it's not out there.
I mean, it's not being reported on.
Well, I don't know what you have to do to get anybody to report anything on Obama.
I'm stunned that you found out.
I thought I had an ace in the hole with the girls being in Mexico.
Because I said, Adam will never hear that.
They're not reporting this.
Because I knew that they put a kibosh on the reporting.
And you picked it up anyway.
Well, that's because I have the Noagenda News Network as a resource.
Noagenthenewsnetwork.com, which is a free part of our service.
It's all value for value.
That thing's cooking, man.
I don't know if you ever look at that.
Yeah, I look at it every once in a while.
It's got lots of stuff.
I do have a request, though.
Please don't subscribe.
You can put any RSS feed in there that you want.
Please don't subscribe aggregators to the aggregator.
Please don't put the Reddit conspiracy feed.
We don't need that.
We need people who are...
Preferably independent people who are out there reporting stuff who do something good once in a while.
Get them on.
And don't put natural news feed.
That's annoying.
I've got to go take it out.
I don't want to have to start banning feeds, but use your brain.
If you want the natural news feed, you'll go over there.
Find someone who's looking at things, or do it yourself.
Get a WordPress blog, put some links there that you think are interesting that pertain to the slaves of Gitmo Nation, and then put that feed in.
Don't just put stuff in there of other people, like Infowars.com.
Please, don't put that in there.
That destroys the whole idea.
Yeah, the idea is that this stuff is singular and different, not just somebody else's feed fed again.
Yeah, and useful.
I know you guys know this.
I'm just saying.
I appreciate that people are trying to make it better, but that's not really helping.
Okay, so I do have a humorous clip.
Actually, no, let's go stay with the Iranian Hezbollah thing.
So Aaron Burnett.
Yahoo!
Burn it!
Aaron Burnett.
I think she is being set up to get fired.
How many times do we have to say this?
So here's her on the Toulouse standoff.
So there's an Al-Qaeda guy.
Now, see if you can find the illogic.
When you watch her stuff, there's so much illogic.
I will tell you what it is in advance.
She is going to say that the guy, this killer of the three Jewish people, you know what I'm talking about.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
This guy, and he's some kid, and they've got him in Toulouse, surrounded by police, and it's a standoff, but she makes this, I don't know if they got the story, they got the script backwards, or whatever, she says the guy's confessed.
What?
To being the guy.
What?
Who would he confess to?
And now there's a standoff.
I mean, when he confessed, wouldn't you arrest him on this?
Oh, okay, well, you're coming with us.
No.
Apparently, this whole thing makes zero sense.
But listen to this Aaron Burnett report.
I'm going to tell you to kill it at some point, right as soon as they bring in the correspondent.
I'm Erin Burnett.
Out front tonight, we have breaking news from France.
After a standoff lasting nearly 24 hours, Reuters now reporting French police have begun an assault on the apartment where a self-described Al-Qaeda...
An assault?
An assault!
What's an assault?
Don't assault me, bro!
It's a sewing battery.
Did she say assault?
She said assault.
Play it again.
Assault!
Assault!
She's a China.
...gun an assault on the apartment where a self-described Al-Qaeda militant accused of killing seven people is holed up.
Now, just moments ago, three loud blasts were heard at the site of the standoff, the suspect apparently confessing to the killings of three French paratroopers, a Jewish rabbi, and three Jewish children over the past ten days.
Dan Rivers is live in the city of Toulouse and...
Dan, I guess you could hear those shots.
What's the very latest you're able to figure out is happening?
Can we kill it here?
Yeah.
You can kill it.
Yeah.
It's like...
Well, so apparently they killed the guy.
Oh, did they finally?
Yeah.
He jumped out of the window, guns blazing.
Look...
This is bullcrap.
This whole thing is like...
This is Gladio.
This is Leave Behind Gladio.
The authorities knew he was weird for ten years.
Well, here's another part of the story that's odd.
He's supposedly Al-Qaeda, and he was in the United States, and we deported him to France.
Did you hear this one?
Yeah, that's where we...
Oh, there goes the microphone.
There goes the microphone.
We almost made it through a whole show.
He's back.
Not really.
So why...
Don't we take our...
Every time we find someone's Al-Qaeda, send them to Gitmo?
Uh...
I wish I could talk.
I'm going to...
You can't fool around with it for a minute.
Bye.
Uh...
Uh...
Yeah, I think this is something else.
Oh, you think?
Yeah.
Really?
This is Operation Gladio-style leave-behinds, and the only thing I know is that this surely benefits Nicolas Sarkozy's election run right now.
And he was on the scene immediately, and that is the...
I mean, you hate to think...
That the elites of the world could actually go to that length to bring in terrorism into your own country in order to enhance the possibility of the incumbent being re-elected.
But I think we shall see the same thing here.
We're being set up for it.
I wouldn't be surprised, but I'm telling you, the weirdest thing about this is Toulouse.
Has anybody traveled to France and been around a little bit?
I've been to Toulouse.
Toulouse?
It's like Hayward.
It's like you'd have to...
Why would there be any activity there at all?
It's ludicrous.
Because you don't want it to happen in a city where pandemonium can break out.
And you want easy access for the president to drive in and go check it out.
And for the photo op.
Yeah, I guess that's it.
For the photo op.
So anyway, so then there was a second thing that she had on her show.
I'm recording her show now to catch this crazy...
You have more?
Yeah, one more.
Oh, cool.
She has...
I'm trying to catch her crazy editorials at the end, and I've been missing the ending, so I have to extend the record time because they run over time.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I know.
It always runs over.
It's annoying.
But anyway, so...
Well, they didn't get anything.
I got this.
She's got an ex-CIA chief of counterterrorism guy on the show talking about the Iranian killers, and she actually asks kind of an intelligent question, even though she doesn't follow up on it.
Yeah.
About maybe this is a bunch of bull crap, all this, you know, the Iran's behind all these murders and all these crazy things going on, like the two guys that were going to kill the Saudi attaché here in the United States.
Remember those two guys, those jabronis that got arrested?
Yeah, yeah.
And the question you have to ask, of course, is why does Iran want to do this?
How is this in a million years going to be?
Because they're crazy, man.
Man, they're crazy!
They're crazy!
You're coming to kill us!
These countries aren't going to do this.
Well, I think we should just kill the guy for no good reason.
There has to be a benefit.
So you always have to look at this over.
Re-elect the president.
I see no other benefit.
This CIA guy goes ballistic on her claiming it was Iranians.
But if you listen carefully, and I'll explain it after he says it, to deconstruct what he said, the logic is completely off the mark, but play this.
Ha!
I'm curious, though, I mean, of course, Iran denies all of this, and it does seem there's so much rhetoric out there right now that, you know, is it possible, Phil, that they're really not involved with any of these things that people are saying that they're involved with, whether it be in Georgia or India or Thailand or the Saudi ambassador?
No, I'm a skeptical analyst, but I wouldn't buy that in a heartbeat.
First of all, Iran has a history of assassination operations.
Going back to the post-revolutionary period in the 80s, they were assassinating people in Europe.
And this was pretty brazen in European countries that they were trying to build partnerships with.
Now we have operations against the Iranians, for example, the Stuxnet operation against their nuclear facilities.
You have assassinations of Iranian scientists in Tehran.
And then the same techniques, sort of magnetized bombs used to try to kill Israeli diplomats in places like India.
And you want to tell me that's not Iran?
I don't buy it.
All right.
Well, gentlemen, thank you very much.
We appreciate it.
Okay.
All right.
So let's look at the logic of what he just said.
You had an Iranian killed by some mysterious assassin in Tehran, I guess, where they put the magnetic device and then they drove off on a motorcycle, right?
Right.
That was the M.O. Right.
So, the M.O. on the attempted assassination or an assassination of some Israelis in India was the exact same.
You put a magnetic thing on the thing.
The exact same ammo.
So, thus, it's Iran.
Now, wait a minute.
The first one, they killed Iranians.
How is the Iranians killing themselves?
How does this work?
What's the logic of using the exact same M.O. in two murders where half of the murders happened to be Iranians that were killed?
He's playing on the idiocy of the public like an eye for an eye, whereas really you would then say, well, that's probably Mossad because that's what they were doing.
Or it's CIA and we're blowing up our own people.
Well, we weren't blowing up...
I mean, the Israeli diplomats are not our own people, A. And the scientists are not our own people.
We're not blowing up our own people, if it was CIA. But I don't think it's CIA either, although he's defending or pushing this off on Iran, and he's ex-CIA, so I'm skeptical.
But this logic...
Was so blatantly weird that she should have said something.
Oh, it's obviously Iranians doing this.
Do you mean the Iranians killing the Iranian nuclear scientists?
Is that what you're saying?
I mean, it's unbelievable that this stuff is on the air.
Well, again, I think it's playing into the stupidity of the viewing public.
Now, if you want to talk about my final clip.
Oh boy, you are on a roll.
The stupidity of the American...
How about the stupidity of the hosts?
Now, there's a big nothing-to-see-here moment with the killing of a kid in Florida and some circumstances.
And Al Sharpton, of course, has to get in on this.
No confidence.
Because Al Sharpton, he was big on that Duke University thing where he ruined these kids' lives because he doesn't know anything about it, but he's getting in on it anyway.
So he's reading from a prompter.
I have his clip at the beginning of a long tirade and then a clip at the end...
The kid apparently had some candy on him.
And the first time I heard this, I said, this isn't right.
There's no such candy as what he describes.
The kid had some Skittles on him, which is a candy that you carry around.
Sharpton sees the word Skittles on the prompter.
And he sees it as what?
Play the clip.
Neighborhood watch captain says he shot the teen in self-defense.
But the young man was not armed.
He was going back home after buying an iced tea and skillets candy.
No name calling.
No incendiary language.
Just the facts.
A young man dead.
The assailant says self-defense.
What is found on the young man?
Skillets and iced tea.
Probable cause for an arrest.
Hey man, a skillet is a dangerous weapon, dude.
What an a-hole.
They pay this guy more money than we make on this show to say skillets.
I mean, it's unbelievable to me.
He can't even read that, can he?
Oh, man.
Do you think anyone's watching any of the brass, you know, the MSNBC people are watching?
No, they have to be.
They must be beside themselves.
I mean, know what the meetings are like.
You know what these suits are like.
Oh, my God, this guy's terrible.
What are we going to do to get rid of him?
Oh, we can't get rid of him.
He's got too much, you know, too many followers.
He's got a big bunch of tweeter followers for all we know.
They don't know what to do.
I guarantee they're beside themselves.
And the guy who hired him is probably sitting there looking up and down in the corner worried sick.
You're right.
Oh, crap.
I can't believe that.
Oh, man.
Let me see if...
Where's that no conflict clip?
That was so awesome.
Where was that?
It's funny because when you do a Google search, Google automatically says, no, you must be looking for conflict.
No, idiot.
I want conflict.
I'm looking at search.nashownotes.com.
Ah, see, now you can't find it.
How much does that suck?
That's too bad.
I wish I knew where that...
Remember, that was a great clip.
Oh, there's a couple.
All you have to do is watch this show and you get a clip.
Yeah, but the no conflict was pretty good.
No conflict was bad.
That was my favorite, favorite, favorite one.
Oh, man.
I wish I could find it.
Maybe someone can email me the clip of No Confrick and we can play.
We're almost done, so I'd love to play it at the very end.
Wait, Sharpton Teleprompter?
Could that be it?
It could be.
Why don't you play it and see what it says?
Let me see.
I'm pulling it up right now.
Hold on.
It's a 329-er.
Hold on a second.
3-2-9.
What was that?
That was 2011, wasn't it?
I don't know.
Yeah, I guess.
Yeah, let me see.
One of the first ones, perhaps.
August?
Does that sound right?
Just play it.
Yeah, well, I've got to get to it.
You know, it's like it's a system here.
Oh, that's right.
You've got some sort of...
You're running a Zune.
Tonight is the measure of whether the country begins in the state of Wisconsin, a national drive to push back, or whether we have more to go to build a movement of resistance.
But resist, we must.
We must and we will much about that be committed.
It wasn't the one, but this is good too.
That's one of my favorites, the much one.
Much, much, much.
Resist we much.
He says it again.
But resist we much.
Yeah, it is pretty sad that he's making so much money.
And we're just like pussing around like a bunch of jabronis.
That's really...
Please find me the no conflict.
Maybe it'll go from there to current.
Well, eventually they all wind up at current, don't they?
Yeah, they have to.
Um...
I mean, there's lots of stuff.
I think I'll save that until Sunday.
I've got Gitmo Nation jewelry, which is good from one of our producers who is wearing...
I've got some stuff, too.
I've got a...
I'm still working on some details, but I've got a deconstruction of...
Actually, it's a really good find of some Clooney on the Charlie Rose show.
Oh, wow.
With, of course, you know who's sitting there, too, always.
Prendergrast.
And I've got Prendergrast queuing him.
I think it's Prendercast.
Oh, Prendercast, whatever.
Queuing Clooney?
Cueing him.
Really?
It's beautiful.
So I'll do that on Sunday.
Okay, and I've got a big vaccine scam coming in against tuberculosis, which is pretty amazing.
Yeah, this is going to be a bonanza, because of course you need some more vaccines to be able to make money.
And there's a huge pedo bear thing taking place in Gitmo Nation lowlands, which is pretty outrageous.
Yeah.
I was thinking of getting into that, although I'm always afraid of those guys.
Yeah, you might want to push that off.
Yeah, I've got to be careful.
Then the only thing I'll leave you with today, you know, in Uganda we have a new problem besides Kony.
We have the nodding disease.
Are you familiar with this?
It's not a sleeping sickness.
No.
Here, I'm going to read.
I'm going to read from...
The headlines vary, and they're trying to tone it down, but the World Health Organization is on high alert about a new Ugandan outbreak of the nodding disease.
And apparently, I'll give you the headline in a second.
Oh, hold on.
I think someone sent it to me.
Perfect.
Apparently, what happens is these kids, they go into these, like, seizures, and then they can't, you know, they're talking weird, they're walking weird, and they get really aggressive.
Headline, Baffling Illness Strikes Africa Turns Children Into Mindless Zombies.
Oh, God.
And so, you know, they think this might have to do with the black flies and their parasitic worm.
Little-known disease emerged in Sudan in the 1960s, a fatal mentally and physically disabling disease that only affects children between the ages of 5 and 15, currently restricted to small regions of South Sudan, Tanzania, and northern Uganda.
But they're saying it turns them into zombies.
And the World Health Organization is on watch to see if this thing isn't contagious and could cripple children across the globe.
Have I not been telling you for three years the zombies are coming?
They are coming.
John, look, I don't...
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm getting the picture here.
This is a CNN report.
Which they've actually, they went back and they changed it.
They removed words like the zombie virus because I have the two next to each other.
They also removed violent behavior in some children.
They took that out because, of course, people are like freaking zombies, man.
Someone sent me a Sharpton thing.
Let's see what this is.
No known cure for the disease.
Yeah, play Sharpton and it will be done.
Oh!
Since the Supreme Court announced that we'd consider challenges to President Obama's health care law, we've told you about conflicts of interest two of the justices faced.
On the same day the court decided to hear the case, Justices Clarence Thomas and Scalia Spoke at a fundraiser for the conservative legal group, the Federalist Society.
Their tables at the event were right next to lawyer Paul Clement's table.
Here's a little issue to think about.
Clement will likely be the lawyer to argue against the law before the Supreme Court.
Of course, being cozy with...
This is the one, it's just I don't know where he says it.
You said it already, you missed it.
No, he didn't.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
He did say conflict earlier.
Yeah, but then he says Kermit.
Here.
Okay, go.
Play.
Of course, being cozy with Kermit isn't Justice Thomas' only conflict.
As we've told you, his wife Jenny started a Tea Party group that calls for the repeal of health care law, and she's saying things like this.
Nah, I don't want to play the whole thing.
It's like three minutes.
Come on, people.
Yeah, I was at the beginning.
He said conflict.
No, no, he says no conflict at the end.
He says no conflict.
So let's get this straight.
Here it is.
Fox focuses on Justice Elena Kagan rather than on Thomas and Scalia.
One issue of the bat with the Fox report, they say Kagan should recuse herself because of Article 28 in the U.S. Constitution.
That article doesn't exist.
Beyond that, legal experts say Kagan's email doesn't suggest she worked on the health care law or played a big part in its passage.
So there's no real conflict.
There must be a pile of spit in front of him on the stage.
No real conflict!
I tell you, there's no real conflict.
Alright.
I'm not going to play...
Just take that no real conflict and double clip it as an evergreen shorty.
Yeah, I've got to clip that out.
Okay, I'm not going to play the...
You can go to the show notes, 393.nashownotes.com.
That's where you can find the Sheriff Joe stuff running a little bit long.
I do have Holder talking about brainwashing people about guns.
It's kind of a funny clip from 1995.
We'll save it for Sunday.
We've got some stuff to do.
Right?
Alright.
So, a reminder, coming up on the No Agenda stream, Bear Crawling Live, 9.30 Eastern Time tonight, hosted by Charles McFall.

And I shall be wading through a lot of archives C-SPAN today, since I wasn't able to catch all of that lone wolf terrorism in the USA. And a couple books I've been reading, too.

He just came out with a new book about the FBI and J. Edgar Hoover.
Yeah, I'm reading that.
That'll be pretty cool.
