	You're watching too much CNN to catch this.
	Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak.
	It's Thursday, June 7th, 2012.
	Time for your Gitmo Nation media assassination episode 415.
	This is No Agenda.
	Preparing for state-sponsored terror attacks here at Camp MoFo in the capital of the drone star state, Austin Tejas.
	In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
	And from lookout point over the San Juan to Fuca Sanctuary in northern Washington where the USA meets Canada, I'm John C. It's Craig Vaughn and Buzzkill.
	In the morning.
	It like rains or pours with you, you know?
	It's like either we get a full-on stinger or it's like, you know, Anyway.
	You're in Studio B. Studio B. I gotta add that.
	And actually, yeah, to the end of that, whatever it was, the connection actually sounds pretty good, I have to say.
	At the moment.
	So all the whole family's up there, the kids, Mimi, everyone's up there, all good?
	Jay's graduated from high school.
	Oh, did she have the ceremony?
	Yeah, it was yesterday, last night.
	Oh, was it fun?
	That must have been nice.
	It actually wasn't bad.
	She gave a little talk.
	This was kind of funny.
	Wait, is she valedictorian?
	There's no valedictorians at these hippie schools.
	Wait, I thought she was homeschooled.
	No, no.
	She was homeschooled until she got to high school age, and then she wanted to go to school, so she went to this school.
	But straight A's, the top student, of course, because why?
	She was homeschooled.
	Yeah, no, that's why, because she was homeschooled.
	Yeah, of course.
	So straight A's, but not valedictorian, because the hippie school that she went to doesn't have that.
	No, but she did get the award for scholarship.
	Oh.
	But she's taking a lot of improv and she does a lot of drama, so she says she has to give a small talk.
	So she gives us a short minute and a half speech of some sort, and we're looking at it and reading it, and she's trying to be funny.
	Both Mimi and myself were going over and saying, no, no, no, this is no good.
	You've got to do this.
	You've got to change this line.
	Hey, kid, you're not funny, okay?
	Okay.
	It's not good.
	This is not going to work.
	So she tells us to shove it, and she gives this little speech and kills.
	Really?
	Everyone loved it.
	Yeah, they almost gave her a standing ovation.
	Oh my goodness.
	Well, there you go.
	Go away and put her on the show.
	Yeah, we should.
	I had my first...
	She doesn't listen to C-SPAN enough.
	Well, it's alright.
	It's alright.
	I'm very happy.
	You should be very proud.
	It's great.
	I had my first encounter with APD and AFD yesterday.
	APD. The Austin Police Department.
	Yes.
	AFD, Austin Fire Department.
	Yes.
	Yes.
	So I'm just about to put these two little...
	Was the place on fire?
	Yeah, well, I'm just about to put dinner in the oven, and Miss Mickey calls me.
	And, you know, you know Mickey, right?
	She's tough.
	But when it comes to, like, mechanical things, she turns into a...
	I'm going to sound sexist now, but into a supergirl.
	It's like that and spiders.
	And so I get this call, like, from her step on...
	There's smoke coming out of the car!
	I can't drive anymore.
	Smoke on me.
	I can't drive anymore.
	And I'm like, okay, where are you?
	I'm like...
	I'm like, seriously, that's what it sounds like.
	I'm like, are you okay?
	I pulled over.
	Smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke.
	I'm like, well, where are you?
	She's like, I'm on 2222 by Jester.
	I'll be right there.
	Now, of course, it's been in the 90s here, so I figure either the car is overheated or something's going on.
	Yeah, somebody forgot to put water in the radiator.
	So I jump in the truck, and I grab a couple of gallons of water, and I'm driving down.
	And she's on the opposite side of this 22, route 22, farm to market route 22, 22.
	And yeah, the car had overheated.
	And I'm not quite sure why, but I guess a hose burst or something.
	I don't think the radiator burst, but maybe it was a hose or who knows what happened.
	Because all the fluid just like had apparently just blown out.
	But the funny thing is, so there's Miss Mickey.
	By the side of the road.
	And she's looking good.
	You know, she's got her sexy see-through skirt on.
	She's got her, you know, sleeveless top.
	John, there's cop cars.
	There's a huge fire truck.
	There's helicopter support.
	And I pull off and it only got better for those dudes.
	It's like...
	Dude, you're the guy from MTV! I was like, uh-huh.
	But it was so funny.
	You know, just an overheated car, which, you know, it happens, particularly with an older car.
	This is from 1999.
	And she was sitting in the truck, you know, they were giving her oxygen, cooling her down.
	Yeah, oxygen.
	Can I massage your breasts, ma'am?
	Yeah, really.
	Really.
	I think you need some CPR right here, lady.
	Yeah.
	It was nice, though.
	It was nice to see my tax dollars at work.
	Will they send me a bill for that?
	I don't think so.
	Will they?
	That depends on the municipality.
	Some places will send you a bill for that.
	Some places won't.
	It depends.
	I don't know how they have it.
	These guys literally...
	They tend to do that.
	There were literally four firemen...
	You know, with a hood up, trying to fix it for her.
	I mean, that's how far this went.
	And you know that if she wasn't cute, or let's just say if it was me.
	Or some fat guy.
	Normal Texan.
	Yeah, you know that no one would care.
	Yeah, fuck him.
	Anyway, shout out to Austin PD and Austin FD. Thank you for taking care of my wife.
	Did you bring some cards and hand them out, telling them to listen to the show?
	I told them about the show.
	I didn't know.
	I thought Mickey needed help.
	I had no idea she was going to be there hanging out with 10 support people.
	I always have cards in the wallet.
	I ran out of cards.
	It's all done.
	Anyway, in the morning to you, John C. Dvorak.
	And in the morning to you, Adam Curran, all ships that see boots on the ground, subs in the water, and feet in the air.
	Yes, and to all of our human resources in the chat room, noagendastream.com, noagendachat.net.
	In the morning to Mr.
	Oil and Gitmo Slaves, Sir Gitmo Slave, who have gotten us streaming once again.
	We do it twice a week, and we do it at 9 a.m.
	Gitmo Nation West Time in the morning on Thursdays and Sundays.
	Some call it the best podcast in the universe.
	We have evidence to back that up, but we don't want to toot our own horn.
	Quite an amazing few days here between our last program and today.
	I would have to say you might have to change your entry in the red book regarding the presidential election.
	Who will be president in 2012, starting 2013.
	I put in who's going to be the nominees.
	I never put in who's going to...
	Did I say who's going to win officially?
	Yeah, you said Obama's going to get re-elected.
	Oh, yeah.
	I'll stick with it.
	Okay.
	Well, I think with my basic assertion that it's the same people behind both parties...
	Yeah, no, I mean, it's kind of a ludicrous prediction because of that.
	I agree with that.
	I mean, I don't think either one of us have ever doubted.
	You know, I think that's a common belief.
	I think it's accurate.
	And I'm not going to argue that.
	Right.
	Well, I think they've made their decision.
	And it's going to be Romney.
	They made their decision.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Well, here's what's kind of interesting.
	So, we didn't talk about it at all because, you know, quite frankly, if I would bring it up, you'd say, it's just a drinking club.
	And, you know, this is Bilderberg.
	And the thing that's interesting about Bilderberg is the alternative media goes crazy about it.
	And this is kind of the Alex Jones's MTV Video Music Awards.
	You know, this is the culmination of his year.
	And I'll give him respect that, you know, he has always been seeking out, him and what's the other guy's name, Jim Tucker, they always seek out where the secret locations are.
	And, you know, it's like, you know, all they're missing is a red carpet because it is a veritable cornucopia of stars of the world elite stage that go and meet somewhere.
	and this year they had chosen Chantilly, Virginia.
	In a Marriott hotel, which should be pointed out, is a Mormon outfit.
	You know, that's Mormon-owned, as far as I understand.
	So that's kind of an endorsement right there.
	It's a publicly-held company.
	Right, but I think it's pretty obvious.
	Well, someone will correct us if we're wrong.
	If we're wrong.
	I'm not going to deal with it.
	I am not looking it up in the Book of Knowledge.
	No, that's okay.
	So anyway, this is kind of a cheer fest, and Alex Jones goes there and gets a bullhorn.
	The script is the same every single year.
	It's like Alex Jones will be there yelling through a bullhorn, They'll talk to a whole bunch of cops, and then, although you'll never hear it on the recording, well, the cops here in uniform, they say, hey, Alex, we're with you.
	These guys are elites.
	And, of course, then Alex always has to get thrown out of the hotel.
	So, okay.
	So that's kind of the same script, and you never really see anything.
	And, of course, it is interesting to a certain point because the news doesn't report on it because that's kind of the rule of, you know, the Bilderberg Fight Club.
	They invite some of the elitists from the mainstream media, and you're not allowed to talk about it.
	So, of course, what goes on there is, you know, By the way, I have to say, this goes on in other venues, and it's deplorable.
	What's deplorable?
	What is the point of having the media there in the first place if they can't talk about it?
	That's what they do for a living.
	Right.
	Well, so, of course, that spawns the conspiracy theory that this is where everything is all plotted and where they come up with the ideas.
	And I have to say, if you just look at what's been going on, the anti-Obama news, particularly from MSNBC and CNN and other more what you'd think were left-leaning outfits, you never know.
	So, a couple of interesting things this year.
	Well, let me say in defense of the media.
	Okay.
	Okay.
	If it is, as I believe, to be a drinking club...
	And maybe some wife swapping.
	Maybe a little.
	It could be.
	Then the media is, you know, they would go in there with a known, you know, we're going to let you in here because we're going to see, you know, the ambassador to the West Indies plastered and probably having sex publicly.
	You want to come in, but you can't talk about it.
	That's different.
	Right, but still...
	It could be then in a memoir some years later.
	But it's not real news to the public anyway.
	It's a drinking club.
	I don't think we really care except for Alex Jones.
	Well, we do kind of like celebrities.
	And the celebrities are a big deal.
	And these are all celebrities in their own right.
	Was Clooney there?
	I don't know if Clooney...
	Bet she was.
	I don't know.
	No, I think he's second tier to this.
	This is really the top dudes.
	And I've interviewed people and I've met people who have been there.
	You know, Secretary of State for the Netherlands.
	And you can ask all you want and he'll smile and be real coy and won't answer the question.
	You know, just say, well, it's kind of like a sales meeting.
	We go and sell what we can do for each other.
	It's a drinking club.
	But something interesting happened this year, and I sent you the video, and I don't know if you watched.
	Probably you didn't because it was unbearable.
	But there's a guy who's also...
	I love that video.
	There were two.
	So one...
	So this has grown over the years, and now we also have Adam Kokash, who does Adam vs.
	the Man, who I also think, you know, he has his own niche, and he's a vet, and he's gone completely, you know, I would say libertarian, and is fighting hard for...
	He's a knee-jerk libertarian, which I never thought existed, but now I realize it is the case.
	So he does interesting shows, and there's a lot of challenging of the mainstream consensus, and I like it.
	And I get lots of ideas, and I watch and listen to stuff.
	It's a part of my healthy media diet.
	So this other guy, Webster Tarpley, Webster Tarpley, I think he has a doctorate in economics and history.
	And I've followed him for a number of years.
	He's a very frequent guest on the Alex Jones Show.
	And what's interesting about him is because he throws out so many little anecdotes and foreign language quotes...
	That there's no way you can fact check everything he's saying, but that when you're like, I'm going to look up what he just said, it typically turns out to be true.
	And he knows, and he can pronounce all the names of all the Russians and everything.
	It's impressive.
	But he, for the first time, he dissented And not only did he do it in a sit-down interview with Adam Kokesh, but also with Alex Jones.
	And I have a little clip of just like an hour-long thing.
	He was there saying, you know, Ron Paul is no good.
	I think he actually said Ron Paul is like a leprechaun.
	Well, yeah, and he also implied that Ron Paul was only in the election.
	I want to play the clip because you're kind of explaining what he said.
	Yeah, go for it.
	So to set it up, he said that on the steering committee this year of Bilderberg is Peter Thiel.
	Peter Thiel, of course, Silicon Valley guy, but also a major donor to the Ron Paul campaign.
	He says that, and this is true, he gave the Ron Paul campaign $2.7 million.
	So he sits down with Alex Jones, and he goes in, and he's really railing on Ron Paul.
	So, A, he had some facts in there, which I checked.
	But B, it was interesting to see how Alex Jones couldn't handle this.
	And, you know, started yelling and screaming and calling names.
	And it really weakened for me forever.
	Or it really made me question this entire Bilderberg thing.
	It seems like a perfect way to get, you know, disinformation out into the ether.
	But here's a little bit of what Webster Tarpley had to say.
	This is not real.
	Ron Paul is famous as a nepotist.
	My figures are that he's got 60 people plus of his relatives, relatives, either on the congressional office payroll or on the payroll of his campaign.
	Jesse Benton, that a lot of people in the Ron Paul campaign tell me they can't stand, is married to Ron Paul's granddaughter, I believe, right?
	And remember, the entire purpose of the campaign is nepotism.
	It's to feather the nest for little Rand so that he has a political future.
	And again, let's look at who this is.
	This is Romney.
	Now, people, I think the better people who are interested in Ron Paul, they don't really understand his economics, although they should.
	So, you have to look at every debate where he had a chance.
	Ron Paul was attacking him because Ron Paul was the attack dog for Romney.
	And anybody who watched it should be able to see that fact.
	Why do we have to be tied to a cynical politician of the Republican barrel structure?
	How about Ron Paul?
	When are you going to expose him?
	But you're running interference for Ron Paul and he's running interference for Romney.
	Where does that leave you?
	Listen.
	You see what I mean?
	Romney's an unknown country.
	I've exposed his ties to me and all of it.
	Now listen.
	Stop right there.
	Finish up with your wrongful fetish.
	Let's move on to the next subject.
	Go ahead.
	Hold that.
	Go ahead.
	A vote for Ron Paul was a vote for Romney.
	So you love Obama.
	So you're...
	No, no.
	No.
	I take second place...
	Tarly, move on from the Ron Paul finish.
	I take second place to nobody.
	I was the first...
	Come out with your hands up.
	The anti-Ron Paul stuff is going nowhere.
	I think in the relevant universe to expose Obama.
	So I have the credentials.
	In other words, I was telling left liberals in 2008, you're being duped.
	I'm sure I like you.
	Can we move on to World War III? I tell people like you, you're being duped by Ron Paul.
	Stop it.
	Same story.
	We're going to move on to the next issue.
	I suppose.
	Now, let me just talk about your triumphalism, right?
	What you're saying that the patrons...
	And then he goes on.
	So, I found this interesting.
	First of all, this program is called No Agenda.
	So, as much as it hurts me to say, well, maybe there's something...
	Because, you know, I know I'll get attacked for this.
	I thought it was worth discussing.
	I thought that was a very interesting theory, and I think yelling like whatever Alex Jones was doing was a weak response, and I thought it was lame.
	But in the meantime, I thought it was a very interesting thesis.
	Well, I was all in on it.
	A couple things that came to mind.
	I didn't listen to that.
	The Jones, when I listened to the other one, where I brought up the same stuff and was allowed to talk.
	Although, not really, because Kokesh also wouldn't give him the mic.
	That's kind of lame.
	But, yeah.
	He still got most of what his points were.
	He got them in.
	He was kind of glib about it.
	But this was very similar to what Huckabee did to help get McCain in.
	He ran interference.
	And I didn't think much of the idea that he would...
	In fact, we should have probably caught it earlier.
	Although I had actually suggested, if you remember in the Red Book, that Ron Paul couldn't win...
	Under any circumstances.
	And you were very, oh no, he could, he can, sure he can.
	And so I kind of backed off on that.
	But here's the interesting thing that came to mind during this whole thing.
	One, besides the Huckabee parallel, Washington State, where I'm right now, I'm floating around, has got Ron Paul signs everywhere.
	And according to Buzzkill Jr., who studied the politics of the state, He says that this was the state that Ron Paul was a shoo-in to win.
	He would actually have won a state.
	But he pulled out of the election completely because of the supposed mathematical elimination, even though he could have still stayed in the primaries and won this state and made a bigger point.
	But he didn't have to now.
	I mean, if he had not have dropped out...
	And ran in Washington.
	I would be more in defense of Ron Paul.
	But the fact that he didn't...
	And there's money that was already collected for his campaign.
	There are signs everywhere.
	Huge Ron Paul signs in this state.
	They're everywhere.
	And he's done.
	But he's not even going to...
	I'm done.
	Job's done, essentially.
	I'm buying.
	I buy the thesis.
	Well, so there was a couple other things.
	By the way, I love the chatroom.
	Chase says, Jones has more money than you dipshits.
	Well, that would kind of prove my point, wouldn't it?
	If you're a disinfo agent.
	Why do we have a chatroom that is, you know, if this happened in Leo's chatroom.
	Oh, boom, gone.
	Any address would be noted down.
	That guy would never be back on.
	Yeah, but I don't like that.
	And if he likes Jones so much, go listen to reruns of Jones rather than listen to us.
	I don't mind.
	I really don't mind.
	I don't mind that.
	I'm on Leo's side.
	This is the way these people should be.
	They're not doing us any good.
	Help correct the fact.
	Well, no, that's a fact.
	That's a good fact.
	It's not a fact.
	You don't know that, by the way.
	He's got a staff, too.
	Yeah, he's got a staff, yeah.
	We are, on the other hand, are just getting by.
	So, anyway, I did look at what he was saying about Ron Paulson.
	Maybe we'd be making more money if that cheap bastard would give us a job.
	I did fact-check what Tarpley was saying regarding basically starving the American children.
	And he has a point about stopping the pregnant mother subsidy, whatever it's called, SNAP. Paul rationalizes it very well, so I am not going to completely condemn him for any of these ideas.
	I found it very interesting, the Peter Thiel stuff.
	Well, yeah, and so...
	Following on on that, I really discovered quite a lot.
	Now, we know that the Syria thing is about Russia one way or the other.
	I discovered some more things, and really it was something else Tarpley said.
	Because, you know, Garry Kasparov was at the Bilderberg meeting as well.
	Wow.
	Yeah, Garry Kasparov.
	Of course, most people know him as a chess player, but he also formed the Other Russia, which was an anti-party, political party, so the anti-communist party, although he was a member of the party, and he's kind of a wacky guy.
	Remember the time someone came up to him and hit him in the head with a chessboard?
	Remember that?
	You don't remember that?
	No.
	I don't remember that.
	Well, it was funny.
	I thought you would have remembered that.
	I don't remember it.
	Well, the guy basically just causes a ruckus all the time.
	And Tarpley went into this theory about Russia, which I really liked.
	We went into this theory about Russia.
	Let's go to Russia.
	Yeah, I'm just wearing our batteries here now.
	There are three Russians here that I can see.
	One is a representative of the Russian Academy of Sciences, who I think is probably pretty much the government.
	But then we have...
	Anatoly Tobias.
	Anatoly Tobias is the expert of what?
	Privatization.
	See, I like it when he...
	This is stuff we never know.
	Anatoly Tobias.
	I wouldn't know that he's the expert in privatization.
	This is good.
	So I enjoy this.
	What the Austrian school loves.
	Privatization.
	That's a Ron Paul ding, by the way.
	The Austrian school.
	Privatization.
	A deregulation.
	This is the mother of the oligarchs.
	In other words, it's thanks to Anatoly Chubayas that we have Kadarkovsky, Potanin, Berezovsky, Guzinski, Friedman, the rest of them.
	In other words, the state property of the Soviet Union was privatized to the nomenklatura, to the oligarchy, to these predators.
	And they have now constituted a state within the state.
	We saw it in the presidential election.
	But Putin kicked them out.
	Putin has fought them more effectively than anybody else.
	Now, the other guy that you have, in addition to Chubayas, whose name is execrated all across Russia, Gary Kasparov.
	Now, Kasparov is a chess champion.
	And he's in Bilderberg.
	What does that mean?
	Yeah, but who is he?
	This is essentially somebody...
	He's an agitator who goes into the streets to organize a color revolution against Putin.
	And his ally is, quite frankly, a Nazi.
	There's a guy called Eduard Limonov, who calls himself a national Bolshevik, who I think, by anybody's reference, would get himself pretty much into the brown shirt category.
	Limonov is a hooligan.
	He's somebody who fights with cops all the time in the streets to attack Putin.
	So when you have Kasparov, it's like bringing Limonov to the meeting.
	In other words, this is an affront.
	This is a primitive affront to Putin and Russia, to have somebody of this wretched level of Kasparov.
	I'm amazed that he gets out.
	But he's here now.
	So this is basically saying, we declare war on Russia.
	Now, I think Tarpley is probably, he probably loves Russia.
	But I like that.
	Okay, now it's starting to make a little bit of sense.
	And then, I see that Clippity-Clop is on her jet, and she's just going nuts with all the anti-Russia stuff.
	Have you been following what Lucifer Clinton's been doing?
	Not completely, but I do know that it's all related to Syria.
	Well, no, no.
	No, that's not entirely true.
	She went to Georgia.
	I'm not...
	Okay, go on.
	She went to Georgia.
	And the first thing...
	So first she's there unveiling...
	Hold on.
	The message is clear.
	Just clippity-clop.
	Just clippity-clop.
	I think she has a lot to do before she leaves because she's really ramping it up for her friends of the Texas oil companies.
	Of course, the Clintons have always worked for the Bushes ever since the days of Mena, Arkansas.
	So she's out there and she's in front of a Georgian warship which has been upgraded with help from the U.S. Coast Guard.
	This ship and its sister ships represent the resilience of Georgia's national spirit and the endurance of your sovereignty.
	America stands with you.
	We will not waver in our support for Georgia and your territorial integrity.
	Now, these are very important words.
	She's talking about sovereignty, territorial integrity.
	This is all, of course, pointing towards Russia.
	And we had in 2008 the Five-Day War, which we now know, although the mainstream media still has kind of forgotten it.
	But even Georgia, it was admitted that they started it, not the Russians, even though Russia gets the blame for it.
	Then she does a stand-up with...
	Actually, she spent a whole day and night in Georgia.
	Walking around town, drinking.
	There's all kinds of cool videos that I put in the show notes.
	And Shakasvili, so they've got an election coming up.
	And of course these guys desperately want to be in NATO. And we know that they're buying all kinds of weaponry from the United States.
	Obviously including this upgrade to their ship and the U.S. Coast Guard has helped with that.
	He's wearing a blue suit, like chroma key blue suit.
	The guy is an idiot.
	Are you still there?
	Yeah.
	Your Skype made some noise.
	And so she does one of her little stand-ups with Shaka's Vili.
	This is about 40 seconds.
	And then she says something very interesting I didn't know.
	Yes, there will be military maneuvers.
	Oh, really?
	Military maneuvers?
	We're going to be doing military maneuvers up there.
	But the really important events of the fall will occur inside Georgia as the people of Georgia cast their votes.
	The most critical event is not another country's military exercises.
	It is Georgia's elections, and that will speak louder than any military exercise could ever do.
	Military exercises, and this indeed is planned.
	Military exercises between the U.S., the Coast Guard, interestingly enough, but the U.S. and Georgia.
	And then she said something that really got the Russians angry, and there's been all kinds of news reports, mainly Reuters reporting on it, where she propagates the lie.
	You have taken important steps since the Rose Revolution, and your progress has been noted worldwide.
	Now it is up to Georgia to consolidate your democratic gains.
	That is the key to Georgia's future.
	And it will bring Georgia closer to achieving your Euro-Atlantic aspirations.
	The parliamentary elections this fall and the presidential election next year are an opportunity for Georgia to deepen its democracy and strengthen the legitimacy of Georgia's democratic institutions in the eyes of your public and of the world.
	And I urge all the people of Georgia to remember, though you did make history with the Rose Revolution, the more difficult and ultimately the more important work may well be ahead.
	that sustain democracy over time.
	And here it comes.
	That means not only holding successful elections, but also going beyond elections and strengthening the other key pillars of democracy, such as labor rights, judicial independence, media independence, and access.
	The United States remains steadfast in our support for Georgia's sovereignty and territorial integrity.
	We reject Russia's occupation and militarization of Georgian territory.
	Now, that is just patently untrue.
	It's just untrue.
	Yeah, it's untrue.
	I'm telling you, this is still Syria.
	I'm getting there.
	I'm getting to the Syria thing.
	I'm wrapping it up here.
	I'm getting to you.
	Just a reminder, Sakasvili was educated at Columbia University.
	They had the Rose Revolution.
	And it was Shevardnadze who was defeated there, was ousted.
	And this is the puppet, the U.S. puppet that was put in.
	By the way, the guy ate his tie during this whole Russian conflict.
	There's plenty of video of him eating his tie.
	He's such a megalomaniac.
	So right after this...
	Okay.
	You remember that?
	Remember me eating his tie?
	He's always chewing on his tie, but how does that become a megalomaniac because of that?
	He's just nervous.
	It's not normal, dude.
	It's not normal.
	Dude!
	Dude!
	So then she hops on her jet, and where does she fly off to?
	We always do urge the government to respect their citizens' right to express views peacefully, to release those who have been detained for doing so in print or on the streets or for defending human rights.
	More human rights.
	Baku, of course, is Azerbaijan.
	Azerbaijan, we always knew that the Azerbaijan European Song Contest was about oil.
	Specifically, this is about the Baku pipeline.
	And you need to take a look at it, John, because then it comes very clear.
	baku.curry.com, B-A-K-U.curry.com, if you wouldn't mind just taking a look before the chat room gets to it.
	B-A-K-U.curry.com.
	And that should forward you to a big picture of the Baku pipeline.
	You got it?
	Yeah, and it goes through Georgia, too.
	Right.
	Well, this is it.
	It goes from Baku through Azerbaijan through Tbilisi, and then out to Turkey.
	This is very important for the gas industry, trillions of dollars of petrodollars that go into Europe.
	But you can see this other line.
	Here's what Russia has.
	Russia has Baku all the way, you know, it's the Novodisic oil pipeline, and then to the Black Sea where they ship it out.
	So this is, you know, very important to hold back Russia and don't have them mess with our pipeline.
	By the way, it's all American companies, Israeli companies, etc.
	that are in there.
	Hey, the pipeline theme.
	Well, so then I'm like, this is interesting.
	I've got to take a look at the relationship between Syria and Baku, or Azerbaijan.
	And I come across from 2009...
	And I had no idea.
	Somehow we missed this.
	I'm just taking the one from Welt, the German publication.
	2009.
	If you Google this, there's tons of stories.
	In 2009, this was the headline.
	In January, Russia plans Navy bases in Syria, in Libya, and in Yemen.
	I'm like, oh really?
	Well that's interesting.
	One down, two to go.
	This was always the plan.
	This is the whole reason we're in Yemen.
	This is the whole reason we're in Syria.
	It's because the Russians were setting all of this up.
	They wanted the warm water port in Syria.
	And they had negotiations as recent as 2011 for liquid natural gas storage, production, shipping, and pipelines with Yemen.
	So this is just a complete...
	War that were, you know, against the Russian oligarchs, and Hillary Clinton is out there fighting it for the Texas oil guys.
	Nah, somebody's got to do it.
	Good for her.
	And here's the one that I loved, the Hunt family, huntoil.com.
	So their pipeline got blown up by the Al-Qaeda, so wherever it is.
	And they have the pipeline that goes down to southern Yemen to, was it Kokos?
	What's the name of it?
	It's the port of Ras Isa.
	In Yemen.
	And Hunt Oil, they've been around for a long, long time.
	Interesting connection with the Clintons as the heir to Hunt Oil.
	What's her name?
	I think it's Jessica.
	Here it is.
	No, Swanee.
	Swanee, she's the heir to the Hunt oil fortune, was appointed ambassador to Austria by Bill Clinton during his presidency.
	So these guys are way in bed.
	And this is a Dallas, Texas company, Tyler, Texas to be exact.
	So the whole thing, all of this, is about keeping Russia's oil and gas at bay and keeping the American, maybe the Seven Sisters, whatever we'd call it, keeping them all in.
	I'd go with the Seven Sisters.
	That's essentially the real power to be.
	Makes sense, doesn't it?
	Makes sense.
	Yeah, and the Russians are playing ball.
	That's the problem.
	And then the Syria thing...
	So they blew up this another Yemen pipeline.
	They keep blowing them up.
	There was one blowing up in April, end of March.
	Well, I think the Russians...
	I think it's proxy.
	I think the Russians are blowing up the American pipelines because it's this pipeline, Hunt's oil pipeline, that got blown up and they're just now starting to rebuild it.
	They think it'll take seven months.
	Yeah, people can Google Southern Yemen pipelines and you'll find Al-Qaeda sabotages Yemen pipeline after a raid.
	Another pipeline blown up in Yemen.
	I don't think it's Al-Qaeda.
	I think it's the Russians.
	Or someone by proxy.
	Yeah, that's complicated.
	Well, they're all unidentified, and the whole point is to get bases in Yemen.
	We have a large presence already, you know, under training missions.
	We've got enough drones and stuff.
	Syria, I think we'd love to have...
	It's a warm water port.
	This is very important for Russia because they don't have warm water ports.
	Stuff gets frozen.
	And, you know, just think about the beauty of being in the Mediterranean.
	They'd love to be there in the Gulf of Aden, in...
	In the, what is it, southern Yemen, and obviously Libya, that was, you know, we had to strike quickly on that one.
	So on the way back home, Lucifer stops off in Turkey.
	By the way, she has hair extensions.
	She's done something where she looks dynamite.
	I have to say.
	She's from horrible to, you know, looks reasonably, you know, attractive for her age.
	Don't you agree?
	Don't you agree?
	Horrible.
	You think she looks horrible now?
	No, I didn't see the newest pictures.
	Oh, no, no.
	She looks pretty good with the hair extensions.
	I think Huma was like, darling.
	Darling.
	Got to do something about yourself.
	Got to do something.
	I mean, really.
	Before you know it, they're going to be calling you a dyke.
	Stop it now.
	And so her hair is now down below shoulder length.
	She looks good.
	Personally, I think she looks good.
	And she lays it all out.
	And this is probably going to be on the news today, but it came in late last night.
	The violence that we witnessed again in Hama yesterday is simply unconscionable.
	Unconscionable!
	Asad has doubled down on his brutality.
	Double down!
	Metaphors!
	And duplicity.
	Duplicity?
	What's duplicity?
	Didn't we play this clip already?
	No, this is Brandon!
	Double down!
	No!
	Well, she's always repeating herself.
	What does duplicity mean?
	What's duplicity?
	It means you're playing two sides against the middle.
	Syria will not, cannot be peaceful, stable, or certainly democratic until Assad goes.
	Science is in.
	So even as we intensify the sanctions pressure, because as we were meeting in Istanbul, the sanctions working committee of the Friends of the Syrian People...
	The Sanctions Working Committee of the Friends of the Syrian People.
	So basically...
	Right.
	Yeah, that sounds great, doesn't it?
	...was meeting in Washington.
	The time has come for the international community to unite around a plan for post-Assad Syria.
	Well, I think you couldn't make it any clearer to me.
	It's done.
	It's over with.
	And, of course, there's this little issue.
	What is it?
	Oh, yeah.
	The Russians are on the security committee.
	The Chinese, I believe, have just taken over the presidency of the Security Council.
	And the Russians, of course, don't want to have this because they're in a fight now in three places.
	And they're not going to just roll over and let Syria go.
	So Lucifer has some tricky words for them.
	We have to unite the international community behind a plan that is achievable and keeps faith with those inside Syria who are protesting and demonstrating suffering and dying for their universal human rights.
	We said last night we are prepared to work with any country, including all members of the U.N. Security Council, and we will do so so long as any such gathering starts from the basic premise that Assad and his regime must give way to a new democratic Syria.
	So this is very interesting what she's saying.
	We'll work with anybody as long as you agree that Assad's got to get out.
	And it's going to be interesting to see how they do this, because the UN-NATO regulations are pretty much chiseled in stone, and Russia has a veto on going and...
	I don't know how they're going to get around that, but they'll find a way.
	Well, I think she has a plan.
	This theory is kind of interesting, because...
	It explains to me, even though you didn't bring this up, even though she went, she did go to Turkey.
	Because Turkey's a big player in this whole scene.
	They're the conduit, of course.
	Because you have to get the boat out of...
	Well, all the pipelines go through Turkey right now.
	All of them.
	I'm not talking about the pipelines.
	I'm talking about where they come into the Black Sea at the port, where the boats are supposed to be, outside of Georgia, where they've got now the Coast Guard.
	What does the Coast Guard do?
	They guard the coast.
	So the idea is you bring the pipeline to the coast of Georgia, right?
	Yeah.
	And then you bring in a supertanker, and then what do you do with the supertanker?
	Well, the only way you can get out of the Black Sea...
	It's through the straits that go right next to Istanbul, which takes you into the Sea of Marmara, which takes you to another conduit that takes you to the Mediterranean.
	Now you can take those tankers anywhere you want.
	But of course, Turkey is also key because it has the Black Sea border, but it also has the Mediterranean border.
	So, you know, they've got Cyprus, they've got Lebanon, they've got Syria, they've got the whole Leviathan fields.
	So Turkey is in the catbird seat, as we'd call it.
	So we have to suck a lot of Turkish schlong, and she's good at it.
	I mean, she's got more hair to grab onto.
	Yeah, well, I think the key is the shipping ports, because you can put an awful lot of oil in one of those super tankers and run it right out of there.
	So what's the key port of Turkey?
	Well, Istanbul is where the conduit is.
	And then you have to get out of this other little area, which is Kanakali.
	Once you're in the Sea of Marna or whatever it is, you've got to get out of there, too.
	So you just drive past Sarkoi.
	Drive?
	Really?
	Yeah.
	The Canicali.
	Well, yeah.
	The pilot guy.
	Hey.
	Canicali.
	Or Sanicali, maybe, because there's a little funny thing under the sea.
	And then that takes you in.
	That's a huge thing.
	And then you're in the Aegean.
	Is that the Bosporus Straits?
	Well, I don't know.
	Maybe.
	I think it is.
	No, no.
	The Marma region.
	No, no.
	The Gulf of Ismet.
	Okay.
	Yeah.
	And then you're in.
	And then you're good to go.
	Right.
	And then you can go.
	Then you're in the Mediterranean.
	Right.
	And then you can power it straight through to Europe or wherever it needs to go.
	Wherever you want to go.
	Yeah.
	That's good.
	Hmm.
	So Turkey has to, that's why, see, this Turkey thing has always bothered me because they're, you know, they want to put them in the EU, which is trying to obviously get a hold of Turkey, too.
	None of it has made any sense to me.
	Why are we warming up to Turkey?
	They don't want to do anything.
	They're turning very strict Muslim Islamist very slowly.
	We don't seem to mention that.
	And then all of a sudden the Europeans want to cozy up to Turkey.
	Yeah, they want them to be a part of Europe.
	What's the point of that?
	They violate all the principles of the EU with their Islamist stuff.
	So we need to change the jingle desperately, John.
	Two.
	The door on jerky.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	So anyway, that's interesting.
	It's a very interesting situation that's...
	It's ridiculous.
	And somehow I have a feeling.
	I guess we have to be involved in this or we just get screwed.
	Yeah, we totally get screwed, yeah.
	Yeah, so we have to...
	Lucifer's doing a good job in that regard.
	Well, yeah.
	And on top of this, now, of course, we understand why the Law of the Sea Treaty is so important.
	Because she went straight...
	I mean, the woman is unbelievable.
	I'll give her that.
	So then she flew straight up to Scandinavia.
	I went up to the northern Norwegian city of, what is it, Tromso, and got on an icebreaker there and was walking around.
	Because if you look at it, even though everyone laughed at Sarah Palin, Alaska and Russia really do compete for 200 miles of exclusive economic zone.
	And that's where there's just tons and tons of oil and gas and minerals and all kinds of stuff.
	And lest you've forgotten, remember the Russians planted like a titanium pole at the bottom up there at the North Pole and said, this is ours.
	We own it.
	I don't remember that.
	But something else is coming to mind here, which is that you played that clip of that guy talking to Alex Jones.
	What's his name again?
	Tarpley, Webster Tarpley.
	And we've discussed this before, which is the Exxon deal that Putin was shaking hands over.
	Right.
	Because there's a picture of the CEO of Exxon and Putin.
	And if Putin's actually fighting against these oligarchs, who are the ones causing trouble, perhaps, then it's possible that we'll do a deal with, I mean, we'll work with Putin, but we won't work with these guys because they're kind of going against the Seven Sisters.
	Right.
	I don't know, because when the elections were up, remember we had all that so-called rioting and protest against Putin, which I'm pretty sure was more of Hillary's techno-experts, so I'm not too sure about that.
	Maybe you're wrong about that.
	Maybe it was actually the Russian troublemakers.
	Maybe it was the Kasparovs.
	Well, it didn't work very well, so yeah, it could be the Kasparovs gang.
	Yeah, because if we were doing it, let's take this.
	It would work, yeah.
	It would have worked.
	It would be a no-fly zone over Moscow.
	We know how to do that stuff.
	Yeah, good point.
	You may have misinterpreted that data.
	Well, at any rate, it still is always about oil.
	Oil and gas.
	That's just the absolute bottom line.
	But Hillary Clinton, I have to say, she's rocking it.
	She's out there.
	And, you know, regardless of whether Obama is re-elected or we see Mitt Romney, which, by the way, I think will be very funny.
	It doesn't matter who wins, because we'll have plenty of material.
	Yeah, we're going to be going from one war criminal to a guy who wants to be a war criminal.
	He wants the power not on the table, but in his hand, he says.
	Who will be the Secretary of State?
	Because Hillary Clinton is running the show.
	But she's not going to...
	I don't think she's...
	She's supposed to retire at the end of this, no matter who wins.
	She's supposed to be out in 2013.
	And she's working herself to death.
	I mean, I don't think you're going to find another Secretary of State that worked this hard.
	So that tells me that she knows that whoever...
	First of all, I think she knows that Obama's not in.
	I think the Clintons hold so much power.
	And we see Bill Clinton wielding that.
	Which must cost them a lot of effort and energy.
	The guy does not look well.
	But he's all over the place and he's sticking little needles into the Obama administration saying, well, Romney's a good business guy and don't knock on that and we should extend those tax cuts.
	So the Clintons are definitely wielding their power and As we started the show off, I think it's all just shifted.
	Romney is in, for sure.
	For sure.
	For those of you not living in Gitmo Nation proper here, the Gitmo Nation of the United States, we had a recall election, which was hilarious.
	Yeah, it was hilarious, because it was, oh, neck and neck, oh, they're going to kick him out, and all the rest of it, and now he didn't, it wasn't neck and neck, but the governor trounced them, which has changed politics now completely for the Democrats and the unions.
	Right, because this was supposed to be the fight against big, unionized, organized labor, right?
	Right.
	And the austerity-driven Republican Scott Walker, who was already in.
	And I think that this was a big deal, certainly for the left media, who were saying, you know, this will determine everything, big labor has to win, etc., etc.
	And there were a couple of really interesting things that happened.
	One of them...
	Remember we read that piece about the White House insider during the 2008, what do you call it?
	The convention.
	The Democratic convention.
	About something they saw in the back room.
	And the guy's dead.
	Yeah, so one of the operatives, one of the Democratic organizers, bundlers, operatives, he saw something, some weird thing going on with Obama, and he winds up dead because he told someone about it.
	So they're out there, and let's just presume, I don't like to do this, but look at red, blue, Democrat, Republican, whatever.
	So we have the organized union labor people outside the state capitol there in Wisconsin.
	And they're getting ready for the big fight.
	And what do they do?
	They do this.
	The Big Fight Yeah, we're talking hundreds of people here, John.
	Where did you get this?
	Straight off of YouTube.
	Look, they're doing...
	Yeah.
	That's crazy.
	This is desperation.
	Since when in America...
	It goes on and on.
	Since when in America do we do this at a political rally?
	This is new.
	It just goes on and on.
	That's...
	I mean, that's...
	I mean, I have nothing against doing the om thing, because it's a form of meditation.
	But at a political rally, when you're trying to get people to vote a guy out, this is what you do?
	This is...
	This is your solution?
	This is how you win?
	Now listen to the very end.
	And see if you can hear it.
	I'll tell you what the lady says.
	Something got caught on mic.
	Hold on.
	This is unbelievable how long it goes on.
	Alright, so it's over now.
	And there's a statement someone makes that you can barely hear.
	Hold on.
	So let's gather hands and make our way of circling around the Capitol.
	Om the dome!
	Om the dome!
	Let's circle around the Capitol.
	So they're going to grab hands, firm or circle, and share a secret.
	What a bunch of...
	Corny, I mean, this is desperation.
	No, no.
	That is borderline pathetic.
	Now listen to this guy.
	Oh, the dome.
	Good one.
	I get this clip of the day.
	Oh, well, hold on a second.
	Well, if we're going to get clip of the day, then...
	Get it.
	Get it now.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	I got it.
	I wasn't expecting that, but I'll take it.
	Clip of the day.
	But this one may be a close second.
	So here's a disappointed...
	First of all, in American politics, the way I was always brought up, if you lose, you're like, alright, we lost, but that's my guy now too, and we'll have to work together.
	Right, you know, that's my president too, and we'll have to, you know, he wasn't the guy I chose.
	Isn't that kind of the way, that's the way I was brought up.
	It's like, you know, that's democracy.
	You don't win.
	Okay, so we didn't win.
	All right, then we'll go with your guy and we'll make the best of it.
	You know, we'll be, we'll stand our ground, we'll make our points, but your guy.
	All right.
	So this is on MSNBC. This is, they're interviewing a somewhat sore loser.
	Volunteered for Barrett, voted today.
	You say you're very disappointed.
	A lot of folks here outside the Capitol sharing your opinion tonight.
	We're not just disappointed.
	This is the end of democracy.
	We just got outspent $34 million to $4 million.
	This was the biggest election in America, and I hope you keep me on tonight.
	Because this hurts us all.
	Every single one of you out there in the nation, if you're watching, democracy died tonight.
	You're very emotional.
	I'm very emotional because we all had a lot invested in this.
	This was it.
	If we didn't win tonight, the end of the USA as we know it.
	Just happened.
	That's it.
	We just got outspent $34 million to $4 million.
	And we don't have any other resource left but the people you see here behind me.
	And if the people you see here behind me can't get it done tonight, it's done.
	Democracy is dead.
	By the way, that's a bogus 34 to 4.
	It was outside money for advertising and other things, but there was so much volunteer labor and other forms of money that came into the other side.
	It wasn't probably even, but it wasn't just 4 million.
	That's bull.
	So here's the meme from Democracy Now!
	And then, of course, I looked into the numbers.
	To our listeners and viewers around the country and around the world.
	We begin our show in Wisconsin, where Republican Governor Scott Walker has survived a historic recall election over Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett.
	Walker won 53 to 46 percent, a 7 percent margin.
	He had outspent Barrett by a 7 to 1 margin.
	Alright, so that's the meme, a 7 to 1 margin.
	And then, you know, I went on Twitter and I said, can someone please show me the numbers because I'm very interested.
	So there's the Wisconsin Democracy Campaign Recall 2012 and they get their numbers from OpenSecrets.org or whatever.
	And indeed they show, well here's the interesting parts of the number.
	So Scott Walker, total raised $30,505,000.
	Tom Barrett, total raised $3,938,000.
	Now there's a little asterisk next to Tom Barrett because his campaign raising is from March 20th to May 20th, so that's two months.
	Scott Walker's number is from January 1st of last year.
	So, you know, it's not like he raised all this money at the same time and that he spent it all in these two months.
	Even more interesting, Tom Barrett, of the $3,938,000 he raised, he only spent $2,935,000, so he left another $1,455,000.
	For what if it was all out?
	Why did you not spend 30% of your budget?
	You know, so don't give me this bull crap about those numbers.
	And then the big labor recall, I have that in the show notes, 415.nashownotes.com.
	There you can see that all the outside donations, which...
	Tipped over $20 million.
	So it was a pretty equal fight, I would say, when it came to money.
	I find it abhorrent.
	There's two sides to the money coin.
	One is to show, oh, the Republicans are unfair because they spent more money when they didn't.
	But it's also to keep that other number low is to encourage money to be spent for this upcoming election so the media can collect more income.
	Right.
	Right.
	I mean, every time money is brought up, you have to...
	Why is it being brought up?
	It doesn't really prove anything, but it does encourage more people to give to Obama, for example.
	He's going to be running short.
	So give him money so he can spend it, and so we can, as media people, we can make money.
	Right.
	I think it's corrupt.
	We have to give our executive producers...
	Oh, yes.
	Yes, let's do that.
	Since we're going to be running into the other donation segment.
	We do have one...
	Really?
	That long?
	Oh, my goodness.
	I'm sorry about that.
	And one, two, three, four associate executive producers, including Black Knight Era, came in for the associate.
	But the Jesper Holmberg in Duval, Washington, took $415.
	Happy 415.
	The show 415.
	Emergency donations so Adam won't have to resort to doing voiceover work for John's buddies.
	Yeah, I did a voiceover for Horowitz for the Discipline Investor.
	Oh no, too late!
	I think my Karma account is still in good standing, but if you have any to spare, I could use a top-up.
	So give him a Karma.
	Absolutely.
	You've got Karma.
	Topped up!
	Thank you so much, Jesper.
	Black Knight Aradadarian in Chabuco Canyon, California, 250.
	You guys do a fantastic job, and I want to thank you for your hard work as a fellow podcaster.
	I know how hard it is to keep going through the summer months, so I hope this donation makes it a bit easier.
	Thanks again.
	Thank you so much, Black Knight.
	Andrew Gamble in Spring Creek, Nevada, 20907.
	I'm not drunk, but I should be so to say stuff like you're drunk.
	No, he says, I'm not drunk, but I should be, so say this shit like you're drunk.
	Oh, yeah, no, you have to be drunk.
	Because I can't read non-drunk writing drunk because it doesn't make any sense.
	Yeah.
	Here's another 69 times 3, which is 20907.
	Not really.
	Oh, yeah, it is.
	Yeah, it is.
	Yeah, how about that?
	Because you guys make me laugh.
	Put it toward my knighthood, but I want the admiralty bonus.
	Being a retired Navy figure, or Navy, I figure, I should be an admiral somewhere.
	Yeah.
	You can make up your own uniform.
	Yeah, well actually as a knight you can too.
	Shoot some karma at brother who just landed an awesome job but is stressing because he is running the show.
	He's the executive chef of a highfalutin country club.
	Love his cooking.
	Well, we'll go out and visit him.
	Yeah, for sure.
	Spring Creek.
	This time I used my real name, Andrew Gamble.
	Last time I signed off as Oscar slave and that confused the heck out of everybody.
	Hot Pucks is going to be near northeastern Nevada.
	Pronounce it right.
	Nevada.
	Nevada.
	We want to show up and get drunk.
	Yeah, oh yeah, number two, Hillary Clinton.
	That's a little rude.
	Okay.
	So, anyway.
	So, he does a karma shot.
	That's for his brother.
	You've got karma.
	I'm telling you, today's a pro-Hillary Clinton day.
	We've said nothing but good things about her.
	She's looking out for us.
	She's saving our business.
	Who needs those guys?
	Serberoslav Marinov in Elisoviejo, California, 20750.
	Please send some good karma to my expected wife, my future human resource, and my kids.
	You've got karma.
	Finally, Andrew Haverson in Gravenhurst, Ontario.
	$200 upon doing some slave scripting at ReadNoAgenda.com.
	Hint, hint, slaves.
	I thought I'd do a self-account.
	Hint, hint, producers.
	$100 to hit knighthood by year's end and $50 for the heck of it.
	$50 for executive producer.
	$200.
	Thanks for the greatest podcast.
	Awesome.
	Thank you very much, Andrew.
	Thank you.
	Appreciate that.
	That's it, right?
	Yeah, that's it.
	That'll be our one, two, three, four executive, or one executive producer and four associates.
	And we want to thank them and everybody else who donated, contributed to the show 415.
	Go to dvorak.org slash NA, especially for Sunday, which has been very slow all year, and it's not going to get any better.
	Yeah, we'll talk about that in a bit.
	People aren't around.
	Yeah, they're not.
	Dvorak.org slash NA. ChannelDvorak.com slash NA. No Agenda Show and NoDegendanation.com.
	Yeah, or we could always just close your eyes, open yourself to this.
	Dvorak.org slash NA. Of course, if you really are broke, live in the American dream, you can always propagate our formula.
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	New World Order.
	YouTube your kid saying it.
	Shut up, slaves!
	slaves!
	Before we started, you were reading something to me that came out of- Yeah, yeah, okay, Obama.
	Yeah, Obama's California thing.
	He's giving a speech and he says, apparently, you know, we put a clip together once in one of his presentations where he just used all his jokes.
	And I still think he'd probably do an hour now.
	Michelle outdoes me in push-ups as well, he said, after saying that she's taken some criticism on her technique because she doesn't go all the way down...
	And they let it hang.
	So what amazed me about this is that everyone is saying this is a blowjob joke.
	And I'm like, no, you're missing the point.
	He said this at a fundraiser for Gay Hollywood.
	That's not what it's called.
	Maybe it's APLA. And because it was gays, it wasn't about blowjobs?
	No.
	First of all, he's talking about Michelle doing a push-up contest with Ellen DeGeneres.
	Right?
	And I wish I had audio of this because I have a transcript where he holds back and waits for the laughter, so it was intended as a joke.
	Going down is a lesbian thing.
	This is how stupid the press is in America.
	They don't even understand that it was a lesbian joke.
	It's not a blowjob joke.
	Okay.
	It's an oral sex joke.
	No, it's a cunnilingus joke is what it is, specifically.
	Isn't that oral sex?
	I don't know.
	Am I wrong?
	Yeah, but can we be specific?
	I don't think we have to be specific.
	The joke, I think...
	I know what you're saying.
	I think it's nitpicking.
	Okay.
	There were gay men there, weren't there?
	But it's about Ellen DeGeneres and about going down, and that is a term that is used with women.
	Yeah, it's not an unusual thing to hear, but okay, you made your point.
	Yeah.
	Thank you.
	You think Michelle was pleased with the joke?
	No.
	I don't think she's pleased at all.
	I don't think she's pleased at all either, because every time he says something, she bristles.
	He's trying to be funny.
	I mean, you saw that in that one video we talked about some time back when he was giving some speech or other and he said something.
	Yeah, she gives him a nasty look.
	Stink eye, exactly.
	Yeah, that's exactly what she does.
	And now, back to real news.
	I wrote down a couple of topics that I saw in the past four days, John.
	Actually, Blacklisted News did this.
	Here's what was on CNN headlines.
	Is this baby doll really saying bitch?
	Toddler accidentally served vodka.
	Elton John frets over Gaga.
	On MSNBC, Zimmerman stocks up on Cheetos in jail.
	Axl Rose robbed of $200,000 worth of jewelry.
	Taco Bell may take on Chipotle with cantina menu.
	And on Fox, Custom Car Builder claims Hot Wheels stole his truck.
	Lighter side of tanning mom.
	And nudist expo bears all in naked tourist industry.
	If that doesn't give you a reason to listen to the show, I don't know what does.
	Actual topics on the actual so-called news channels.
	It's unbelievable.
	Yeah.
	Well, my favorite thing is this is the although this can happen to anybody.
	We've been hoaxed a couple of times.
	But this guy that was very clever who did the who hoaxed CNBC, the teenager with the fake escort service.
	I didn't read the article.
	I was like, move on.
	This is actually quite funny.
	The guy was, and what's funny about it is the reliance of all people, CNBC or any of these networks, to tweet a request for, like, does anybody know of a story that might be about, essentially about, during the NBA lockout, is there anybody in any stories to tell and this guy decides as a goof to tweet back?
	Right.
	And so they buy a hook, line, and sinker, and it's over Twitter, unvetted.
	It's not even funny how far away from reality it is.
	And then it gets picked up by two or three other news services before the guy comes clean and says, that is bull crap.
	He's making the whole thing up, everything.
	Yeah, they're idiots.
	And there's Twitter.
	I mean, it's not as though it's email or anything.
	He made up the name, his Twitter name, just before this.
	He has no followers.
	Yeah.
	Adios, mofo.
	Yeah, no, this is dumb.
	It's dumb.
	And when I see something, every once in a while I see something on Twitter and I say, who is this idiot?
	I click and he's got no followers.
	Some guy just created an account real fast so he could say something.
	I always like the sexy girl that you click on her link and it's like win an iPad.
	Damn, damn, she got me again.
	Oh, yeah.
	That happens all the time.
	That win an iPad is the worst scam and the worst part about it is it's like you can never win the iPad.
	It's just like endless.
	Well, you actually have tried to win the iPad?
	No, I checked it out.
	I knew.
	I had a hunch where this was going to go.
	And what it is, they put you in some sort of an endless loop of quizzes that are all market research.
	Right.
	Oh, right, right, right.
	And so they ask you a million questions and they say, well, that's good.
	Now you can win the iPad by answering these questions.
	And they put you on another ten screens of questions.
	And then you can now win the iPad if you do one more thing.
	And it just goes, it never ends.
	Hours and hours of your time would be lost if you actually followed up.
	Well, I was doing some actual research while you were clicking on the free iPad links.
	Right.
	I needed an iPad.
	So, John, did you hear we got number two?
	Again.
	Again.
	How many number twos are we going to kill?
	So, this was very interesting to me.
	Because, of course, I have three separate reports.
	Actually, two and a quote from Panetta.
	And we know the most compromised news source is, of course, ABC. And Diane Sawyer, she didn't seem hammered, by the way.
	It was a little disappointing.
	But I have to say...
	Diane looks sexy.
	She's got like a new kind of open collar thing, and it's kind of like Catholic high school girl, high collar, but then open down to her cleavage.
	Very, very, very attractive.
	She's like in her, I think she's 67 or something.
	I think she's 70.
	Yeah, she looks very, very good.
	She's had work done.
	You know what?
	My car has work done, too.
	It's okay.
	Well, you got the same kind of idea there.
	Yeah.
	So, but the memes in these reports, and I did the research, you know, it's an out-and-out lie, but let's listen to the memes.
	We begin with that breaking news of major terrorists taken out by U.S. forces.
	Major terrorists.
	A second in command of Al-Qaeda.
	Yes.
	Second income.
	Have you ever heard of this guy?
	Ever?
	No.
	Have you ever heard the name?
	No one but Bin Laden as revered.
	No one but Bin Laden was as revered.
	Funny how we never knew the guy's name.
	By the terrorist group.
	His name is Abu Alibi.
	And by the way, Abu Ayaya Alibi, if you pronounce that a little differently, it's Abu Ayaya Alibi.
	That's how I read it.
	I like alibi.
	It's not alibi.
	Alibi is a common...
	It's actually a nickname.
	It means from Libya.
	Oh, really?
	It doesn't surprise me.
	He operated in the shadows, but in the shadows...
	Power was felt around the globe.
	Power was felt around the globe!
	I mean, this is so important to listen to this psychological warfare.
	And here in the U.S., Al-Qaeda's forces would only strike after they had his blessings.
	After they had his blessing.
	His blessing.
	What strikes did they do?
	He just killed the other number.
	He did nothing.
	He did nothing.
	ABC's Martha Raddatz is here to tell us.
	Martha is hysterical, by the way.
	Her veins are popping out of her neck.
	She's going crazy.
	U.S. finally tracked him down.
	Martha?
	Al-Libi was a huge player in Al-Qaeda, Diane.
	U.S. officials believe his death is so significant that we are now closer to the ultimate demise of Al-Qaeda's core than...
	The ultimate demise of Al-Qaeda's core.
	This is great news for Obama.
	ever before US intelligence had been tracking Al-Libby for days just before dawn on Monday an armed drone silently circling his hideout they actually show a picture of a drone shooting off a hellfire This is great.
	Uh, Waziristan, I might add.
	Al-Libi fired several powerful missiles.
	Today, confirmation that those missiles hit their target.
	Al-Libi is dead.
	Al-Libi was number two behind Ayman al-Zawahiri, Bin Laden's longest and closest associate.
	He is famous for escaping U.S. custody at Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan in 2005.
	He fled to Pakistan, and within a year, the charismatic Al-Qaeda operative was releasing taunting videos.
	He's putting YouTube videos up!
	We must drone him.
	Give me his baseball card.
	Let me take a look.
	Yeah, let's get that guy.
	A leading voice in calling for attacks against the U.S. He's a podcaster.
	He's doing podcast videos.
	He's a leading voice.
	He was the gatekeeper to Zawahiri.
	The gatekeeper!
	And frankly, if Ayman al-Zawahiri goes now, the central leadership in Pakistan is probably as close to done as it's going to be.
	Take a fork in him!
	This strike follows a string of U.S. successes against Al-Qaeda.
	Ah, let's rack him up.
	Here we go.
	Obama rocks!
	Osama bin Laden in May of last year.
	Atiyah al-Raghman, head of Al-Qaeda operations.
	Oh, maybe they got the CFO. In Yemen, American-born radical cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, followed just last month by a drone strike on Fahd al-Khuzo, charged in the bombing of the USS Cole.
	And now, al-Lippy.
	Woo!
	Now here it comes.
	Tell me why they think al-Limby is a permanent blow to al-Qaeda.
	Won't they just recruit somebody else?
	Well, not really.
	It will be extremely difficult for Zawahiri to replace al-Limby with someone as experienced and trustworthy.
	Would you like to be number two?
	Hello, hello, give me human resources.
	Human resources!
	You get to be number two.
	Mohammed, we need some candidates.
	Call the human resources department.
	...now when Zawahiri has got to wonder whether he is next.
	Ah, so it's a setup because Al Zawahiri has got to wonder if he is next.
	This is the setup because we've got to make this guy number two.
	We've got to pump up Al Zawahiri.
	But here's the thing that really blew me away, that they messed it up.
	They only fixed it today.
	Luckily, I saved a copy, but it's still up there.
	If you type in alibi.curry.com, A-L-I-B-I.curry.com, are you doing it?
	I'm doing it now.
	You will see the webpage on rewardsforjustice.net.
	And here is the baseball card for Abu Yahya Al-Libi.
	He's not even on the first three pages of this site.
	They only wanted one million bucks for him.
	This guy was no number two.
	He doesn't even look like the right guy.
	This is the right guy.
	No, this is the wrong guy.
	This is the guy.
	No, no, no, no.
	The other one is...
	No, no, no.
	This is Abu Yaha Al-Libi.
	This is the guy, John.
	It's Anas Al-Libi, I think he's talking about.
	No, this is the guy.
	I have the video.
	It's the same pictures.
	This is the guy.
	The pictures could be wrong.
	But he's another...
	This other guy, Anas Al-Libi, the Al-Qaeda scout...
	Who is six foot, I think, is the guy they're talking about.
	No, John, no.
	Go back and play the name again.
	Go back to the beginning of the Dan Sawyer report and see what she calls him.
	We begin with that breaking news.
	A major terrorist taken out by U.S. forces.
	The second in command of Al-Qaeda.
	No one but Bin Laden as revered inside the terrorist group.
	His name is Abu Alibi.
	He operates...
	Abu Alibi.
	This is the guy.
	And if you look at the homepage for Rewards for Justice, we have Havis Mohammed Saeed, up to $10 million.
	We've got Hafiz Abdulrahman Maki, he's even getting twice with $2 million.
	We've got Yasin Alsuri, $10 million.
	Abu Dwa, $10 million.
	This guy was no number two.
	There was only a million bucks.
	It's a lousy card to have.
	And this is the guy.
	Escaped from Bagram Air Force Base.
	This is the guy.
	So it's total bullcrap.
	It's total bullcrap.
	If you're number two, then you've got to be between five and ten million on rewardsforjustice.net.
	This is bullcrap.
	It's total and utter bullcrap.
	Well, there must be another Abu.
	No, John, this is the guy.
	He was on the list, but only $1 million.
	I don't care about him.
	It was not some...
	This is a memo that went out.
	Oh, he was number two.
	Oh, please.
	Well, yeah, no, we know that's a bunch of...
	Listen to Charlie Rose.
	He had, what's his name on?
	Another esteemed reporter.
	Bob Orr is in Washington.
	Bob Orr, right.
	The latest on that story.
	Bob, what can you tell us?
	That's Gail Shepard, by the way.
	I don't know why she's a journalist all of a sudden.
	Good morning, Gail and Charlie.
	Well, I can tell you this is a big loss for al-Qaeda.
	Big loss.
	Abu Yahya al-Libi.
	Abu Yahya al-Libi.
	That's the guy.
	All right, you got the right guy.
	This is ludicrous now.
	Thank you.
	Was one of its last senior operatives, a key player at the very core of that embattled terror network.
	Cue video.
	Abu Yahya al-Libi was often the face of terror, appearing in more than 30 al-Qaeda videos, seeking radical recruits and urging new attacks against the West.
	More importantly, in recent months, al-Libi served as top deputy to new al-Qaeda boss Ayman al-Zawahiri, overseeing plotting and relations with terror affiliates.
	Inside Al-Qaeda, Al-Libby was a star.
	Revered for his 2005...
	He's the regular Lady Gaga.
	...escape from a U.S. military prison in Afghanistan.
	Now, with his killing by a U.S. drone, Al-Qaeda has a serious hole in its top management.
	Oh, no!
	There's another opening!
	It's the same talking points.
	In the past, significant people were killed or captured, but there was somebody like Shark's Teeth coming in behind them.
	In this case, there's no bench.
	There's a few deck chairs.
	It's not clear who's going to fill them.
	I love the metaphors.
	There are numerous openings.
	John, what are we wasting our time on?
	There are numerous openings.
	They want a new podcaster.
	You know, I'm looking at the Rewards for Justice homepage.
	You got one for Terri, up to $25 million for Zawari.
	Yeah.
	I mean, the top guy.
	Then you have 10 million.
	You got one, two, three, four guys who are worth 10 million.
	That's my point.
	Then a 7 million.
	Then the number of $5 million guys fills the page.
	Thank you.
	One, two, three, four, five.
	One, two, three.
	There's 25, 30, 40 guys.
	You're making my point for me.
	It was not a number two guy.
	And it's not even on the homepage.
	Even though the $500,000 Cajur Maritos is on there.
	I think the guy was an intern.
	I think he may have been inoperative.
	They were just extracting, too.
	We don't know that.
	But I like this rewards for justice because it really does look like Obama's baseball cards.
	You know, it's got date of birth, place of birth, Libya.
	So that's your Libya thing.
	Complexion, medium, sex, male, nationality, Libyan.
	Characteristics, black beard.
	Status, fugitive.
	In the 13 months since Bin Laden was killed by U.S. Navy SEALs, more than a dozen other top al-Qaeda terrorists had been killed by nearly 100 U.S. airstrikes in Pakistan and Yemen.
	Among the dead, American-born cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, who was behind recent bombing plots against U.S. aviation, So I think that on rewardsforjustice
	.net, They should put a big, like, red thing over him.
	Like, you know, nailed him.
	The X. X. Like an X, yeah.
	We should have something like that.
	So Panetta's in India.
	By the way, I wanted to mention, Yaya is, of course, spelled differently everywhere you go.
	But he is listed on one of the other interesting sites that I like to look at called globalsecurity.org, which has a bunch of baseball cards essentially on it.
	What's his ranking there?
	He's listed as an Al-Qaeda recruiter.
	That's his role.
	He's a recruiter.
	He works in HR. I'm telling you.
	Yeah, exactly.
	This is hardly the number two man.
	He's just a recruiter.
	But this is all done, obviously.
	Curious, he came from the same Libyan Islamic fighting group, which the other Al-Libby came from that I was mistaken for this guy.
	So the guy's a recruiter and we shoot a drone at him and he's blown to bits.
	And now he's number two.
	And now he's number two.
	Here's Panetta.
	It's 30 seconds.
	I'll translate it.
	More drones coming your way, bitches.
	That's the translation.
	Speaking in India, Panetta dismissed the Pakistani government's charge that it was a violation of its sovereignty.
	This is about our sovereignty as well.
	Because there were a group of individuals who attacked the United States on 9-11 and killed 3,000 of our citizens.
	We went to war against those who attacked the United States of America.
	Panetta also insisted the drone strikes have been effective at eliminating threats to Pakistan as well.
	Yeah, may you burn in hell, Panetta.
	You burn in hell.
	I like the way this is.
	This isn't a violation of their sovereignty.
	It's a violation of our sovereignty.
	Sovereignty.
	Because the guy's a recruiter.
	He's an HR operative.
	Number two.
	Well, I'm sorry.
	They lose all credibility with this number two bull crap by not having...
	And this is the State Department's website.
	We've established that.
	This is the State Department and their rewardsforjustice.net.
	We've got the little State Department logo right on the page.
	And this guy was never in the number two.
	What do you think we are, stupid?
	This guy was never in the number two slot.
	Ever.
	And now, as of today, the State Department is going to be announcing a whole new bunch of guys from Yemen they're going to put on the list.
	And they've probably got someone whose job it is to print out these webpages and cut little baseball cards for the president.
	Because this is exactly what it is.
	These are the baseball cards.
	White House Insider on Ulsterman.
	Did that follow up that I mentioned on Sunday?
	Yeah.
	And this was all about the drone thing, remember, in the previous episode.
	And I believe this to be a true White House insider.
	I'll quote verbatim.
	But now Barack Obama, he's judge and jury.
	With a pointing of a finger to names on the list, Barack Obama gets to play God.
	No day in court, no guarantee.
	Innocent people won't be killed as well.
	And they've been killed.
	Children, women, over and over again.
	And this president, he has the knowledge when he watches the kill confirmations, and he watches it over and over again.
	To him, these are high-tech snuff films.
	A multi-billion dollar snuff program, and he gets off on it.
	God.
	Yeah.
	If that's true, that's terrible.
	Well, apparently...
	If you read the whole, there's a link to it in the show notes, 415.nashownotes.com.
	People are freaked out about this.
	And Jarrett is, even the true president, Valerie Jarrett, is freaked out because, you know, it's an obsession.
	And he keeps watching it over and over and over again.
	We have producers in our audience whose job it is to retrieve pictures and video of drone strikes.
	I know at least one of them, these are sysadmins, it's very disturbing.
	It's very, very disturbing to watch this.
	I think you had not just a video on the drone, but also a video on the rocket.
	As it goes in.
	Remember those smart bomb videos?
	Yeah, you know, it reminds me of that WikiLeaks video of the guys in the helicopter that were casually shooting people.
	Yeah.
	You know, oh, you think he's got a gun?
	I don't know, take him out.
	Take him out anyway.
	I'm very, very sad.
	Very sad about that.
	Oh, well.
	But at least, you know, we're on top of it.
	It's hope and change.
	I was watching the State Department briefing.
	And I guess Victoria Nuland is off with Lucifer.
	Clippity-clop.
	102 or so.
	Toner is back.
	I was going to play the State Department video when this question came up.
	Actually, I can play the beginning of it.
	Let me see.
	I'll play the beginning of it, and then I'll play the NPR report, because this was pretty underreported.
	My question is about the report of USAID cutting off funding for the Pakistani iteration of Sesame Street.
	Are we ready to move to Pakistan Sesame Street?
	No, no, no, no.
	I'm sorry, Matt.
	I know you had number two.
	No, no, no.
	I apologize.
	It's fine.
	Yeah, go ahead.
	The conflicting...
	There was a sourced report in Pakistani media.
	It was a matter of corruption in the theater company that was producing it.
	The theater company itself alleged that the U.S. simply ran out of money for it.
	My question is why, specifically whether it was at all related to the report last week that Gitmo detainees were forced to listen to Sesame Street music in their ears.
	So...
	Okay, a couple of things here.
	Oh, God.
	One, I did not know that the Gitmo detainees, and this is an ongoing trial, which is kind of hidden from view.
	There's a few reporters so-called on the scene, and they have to sit in a room, and the audio's regularly cut off, so they can't hear everything.
	But, you know, all these guys have translations on headphones, and apparently they started, you know, which, of course, is a form of torture.
	They started playing Sesame Street music on their headphones.
	I can't find anything about that.
	But oh, you can always bet our national treasure will do a report on Sesame Street in Pakistan.
	Sim Sim Hamara, the Pakistani version of Sesame Street, is set in a mock-up of a typical Pakistani town.
	There's a school, the ubiquitous banyan tree, a restaurant, and a colorful cast of characters centered on a six-year-old girl named Rani, who loves the sport of cricket.
	Only one of the original Sesame Street characters has been transplanted to the Pakistani version, Elmo.
	Welcome to Sim Sim Hamara.
	I'm Elmo.
	The highly produced Sim Sim Hamara began airing in Pakistan about six months ago with an aim to educate school-aged children.
	About one-third of Pakistani children can't or don't attend school.
	Now, I have to ask you, why are we paying for Sesame Street to be produced and broadcast in Pakistan?
	Are we paying for this?
	Yes!
	I mean, who's doing it?
	Did she say that?
	Yes, USAID. Oh, there you have it.
	$20 million for a five-year contract.
	Now, you could listen to the story, but I'll just tell you what it is.
	Well, I would assume, before you go on, that there's some brainwashing mechanism here that would benefit the U.S. of A. You think?
	I would hope.
	They also produce a Lebanese version.
	Sesame Street is the PSYOPs program.
	Who knows what Elmo is saying?
	Elmo!
	We're brainwashing the children.
	This is why they cut it off.
	Someone over there, probably the new number two in Al-Qaeda went, Hey, wait a minute.
	Wait a minute.
	What's my kid watching here?
	These are Western values.
	Put a burka on that Muppet!
	I find that this is inconscionable.
	We're brainwashing...
	I'm not agreeing with you on this.
	I think this is fine.
	You think it's good?
	I don't think it's good.
	Who owns Sesame Street?
	Sorry?
	The Children's Television Workshop.
	Yeah, and who owns that?
	It's a bunch of big corporate guys.
	Yeah, and so why is the U.S. government paying for this to be produced in Pakistan and Lebanon?
	And God knows where else.
	Well, it's not as though we're not wasting money every time you turn around, and that's why the economy's in the toilet.
	Let me take a look at the wiki here.
	Actually, they've changed the name of Children's Television Workshop.
	I didn't know that.
	It's now known as Sesame Workshop.
	Oh, boy, oh, boy.
	We're going to have some fun on Sesame Street today.
	A worldwide American nonprofit organization behind the production of several so-and-so.
	Workshop was instrumental in the establishment of children's television.
	Yeah, bullcrap.
	Joan Ganz Cooney and Lloyd Morissette are the original founders.
	Mm-hmm.
	Originally funded by Carnegie Corporation, or Carnegie as I like to say, a non-profit.
	Melvin Ming is the current head guy.
	It's on PBS. Well, anyway, if they're using this to brainwash Pakistani children, do you think there might be something in there for our own children?
	Oh yeah, they're brainwashing our kids too.
	I wouldn't let a kid watch this thing.
	Okay, thank you.
	Let's see, Sweden, Philippines, yeah, yeah, it makes sense.
	Egypt, there we go.
	Jordan, yeah, well, it's brainwashing.
	Nigeria, this is great.
	Pakistan, as we know, Sim Sim Humara, right?
	Oh, also in Afghanistan.
	All funded by the U.S. government.
	Okay, well, I just want you to know, you may want to evaluate what your kids are watching.
	I would want my kids watching anything.
	What's going on overseas is going on here, too, because we know that.
	I just found it interesting.
	Hmm.
	Okay.
	All right, go on.
	I have a short clip, by the way, I thought was kind of funny.
	This guy, Mark Toner at the State Department, he's hilarious.
	He never answers anything, but he's such a good-spirited guy.
	There's a real short little clip in there where one of the reporters just snidely says this, and he just takes water off a duck's back.
	Good afternoon, everyone.
	Welcome to the State Department.
	Matt?
	And then empty vessel.
	More than you did.
	That was a setup.
	I'll take it every time.
	Did you record that with the microphone in your anal cavity?
	No, it sounded fine on this.
	I had to de-noise it because there's a noise buzz that's in the background.
	Your de-noising is not the way to go.
	You threw it out of phase.
	Well, I don't know how that happened.
	Are all your clips like that?
	Just play one channel.
	It'll be fine.
	Anyway, he says, I'm an empty vessel, and the guy says, more than usual.
	It's very funny.
	Yeah, it's an old clip.
	Wow, great.
	Yeah, well, I guess you won't be playing any of my clips if they all sound like that.
	Do they all sound like that?
	Seriously?
	It doesn't sound like that here.
	I don't know what you...
	It sounds fine.
	Yeah.
	Please don't denoise.
	Whenever you denoise stuff, it messes it up.
	You wouldn't put up with it otherwise.
	Well, can you just record with that?
	I got a ground loop on the system here somewhere in the audio that creates just a buzz, so I debuzzed it.
	Well, the debuzzing is not a good idea.
	That ruins it.
	Alright, something going up there in the northern state of Gitmo, Canada.
	New laws passed.
	Ontario's legislature passed the McGinty government's controversial anti-bullying bill today.
	That discrimination against children on the basis of whatever, including their sexual orientation.
	The basis of whatever.
	Yeah, the basis of whatever, including their sexual orientation.
	So you can't say, hey, you've got a big nose, get out of my way.
	That apparently is now bullying and against the law in Toronto.
	The basis of whatever, including their sexual orientation, is no longer acceptable.
	The law applies to all publicly funded schools and requires them to let students call anti-homophobia clubs gay-straight alliances if they want to.
	Many Catholic school boards and church leaders opposed this aspect of the bill.
	So I'm not quite sure what the, you know, they're bringing up this point of using the word gay-straight alliances As an anti-homophobia, I didn't understand what she's talking about.
	Neither did I. What's the gay-straight alliance all about?
	So you can set up a support group and you can call it a gay-straight alliance.
	And church groups have an issue with using the word...
	Suppliance?
	Gay.
	Using the word gay.
	Which, by the way, in New York State, calling someone gay can no longer be deemed defamatory.
	You saw the lawsuit about that?
	Yeah, I did.
	Yeah, so you can say, hey, don't be so gay, and someone cannot sue you anymore.
	Here's the plan in 13 seconds.
	Here's a look at McGinty's anti-bullying plan.
	He wants there to be tougher consequences, including expulsion.
	So instead of just being kicked out of school for a week, they can kick you out of school for good.
	Okay, that'll be helpful.
	Support programs for victims.
	Support programs, okay.
	Rehabilitation programs for bullies.
	That's going to be fun.
	And schools must support activities promoting understanding.
	Ugh.
	To all hold hands and understand.
	This is, of course, once again sneaking up on cutting off your...
	Do they have a First Amendment right in Canada?
	No, they don't have a First Amendment.
	I understand.
	Do they have something equal to it?
	Something like it?
	Not really.
	Okay, well then, every country gets the government it deserves.
	As will we.
	They have, right, they have laws that protect freedom of speech, but it's not the same.
	It's not the absolutist type of thing we have in the Constitution.
	Well, it doesn't matter because we have kids.
	And it gets cut off every so often.
	Yeah, we've got anti-bullying laws here as well, so it's just what it is.
	My favorite topic, do you have something?
	Let's try one of your other clips to see if they suck.
	No, they're all going to suck if that one came out like that, because they've all been denoised the same way.
	Let me try, see what we've got here.
	Sent mail.
	Hold on, let me get the list.
	I keep sending these on Google now.
	Welcome to State Department.
	Bloomberg at UNC is not funny.
	This is interesting.
	Play the budget clip.
	Okay, here we go.
	This should be interesting.
	The hearing will come to order.
	The committee will come to order.
	Welcome everybody to the Budget Committee.
	The purpose of this hearing is to review the long-term budget outlook, which CBO just recently released, and unpack the fiscal and economic damage and challenges facing our nation.
	We're joined today by no stranger to this committee, Doug Elmendorf, Director of the Congressional Budget Office.
	I want to thank you for testifying again today, Doug, and for the work your team has done in putting together this report.
	The report is sobering and the warnings are dire.
	You write in the report, quote,"...growing debt would increase the probability of a sudden fiscal crisis during which investors would lose confidence in the government's ability to manage its budget and the government would thereby lose its ability to borrow at affordable rates." What's causing this growing debt?
	Government spending is on a breakneck pace.
	By 2025, according to this report, health spending, including Medicare and Medicaid, Social Security and interest on the debt, will consume 100% of revenues.
	Tax revenues that continue to increase each and every year.
	The problem, of course, is unsustainable increases in government spending.
	Our entitlement programs, in particular government spending on health care, are the core drivers of the debt.
	The report makes clear the health...
	He goes on, this is Ryan, he goes on and on and on like this, and he never once, he says, you know, we're broke, spending is out of control, and never once mentions the military budget.
	Well, no.
	Why would you?
	And the military budget, which nobody will even audit.
	They want to audit the Fed?
	They're going to audit, I think the, what did we see in the documents?
	They said 2019 they'll be ready for the audit?
	For the military.
	Yeah, kind of got it.
	2018 and 2019.
	They want to audit the Fed, but this is laughable.
	They're just sending in their money and they don't even account for any of it.
	No, this is almost...
	And then they bitch about the economy.
	I mean, it's unbelievable to me that they wouldn't...
	Can't do that.
	Gotta protect our borders.
	Anyway, I just found it annoying to listen to this guy.
	I should make this an evergreen clip.
	This is about the time you've got to play the old Rumsfeld clip from one day before 9-11.
	This is the 10th of September, 2001.
	Here we go.
	Let's see.
	I think it's in this.
	I'm pulling this from YouTube.
	I don't have these in...
	Let me see.
	Where he talks about the Pentagon.
	Money wasted by the military poses a serious threat.
	In fact, it could be said that it's a matter of life and death.
	Rumsfeld promised change, but the next day, the world changed.
	And in the rush to fund the war on terrorism, the war on waste seems to have been forgotten.
	My 03 budget.
	Wait.
	It's Donald Rumsfeld declared war, not on foreign terrorists.
	The adversary is closer to home.
	It's the Pentagon bureaucracy.
	He said money wasted by the military poses a serious threat.
	I gotta pull that clip.
	Anyway, he says $2.3 trillion is missing from the Pentagon.
	And he said that on September 10th, 2011.
	Yeah.
	That was quite a couple of years ago.
	Coincidence?
	I think not!
	I'm gonna show myself gold by donating to no agenda.
	Imagine all the people who could do that.
	Oh, yeah, that'd be fun.
	Yeah, on no agenda.
	Alex Jones has more money.
	In the morning.
	You know, it's funny how the military extol how great it is that all these soldiers, they do all this hard work for us.
	And then once they get out, they get screwed.
	They get kicked out of their benefits from the VA.
	And this has been a history of this country since the Civil War.
	where they have people done pensions, they pull the pension.
	Or there was somebody who was in the news the other day who had the government would only give them 49% of their pension because if they gave them 50% then their wife would get death benefits and screw that.
	I just find it abhorrent.
	And we want to congratulate producer Harry Pilgrim on his retirement.
	He's retiring from, I believe he's Marines, I believe.
	Well, hopefully he won't get screwed.
	No.
	I'm going to start off with a, I went to the Twitch show and Chad Spacey from Santa Clara gave the show $100.
	Oh, that's very kind.
	On the spot donation.
	On the spot donation.
	It's a big deal.
	He gets top of the billing.
	Anonymous, $100.
	For my wife's protection, keep my name and location for this donation anonymous.
	I'm just trying to do his part to support the best podcast.
	Universe liked to request some karma for his wife, who is serving as a flight nurse in the Air Force.
	The information I've received from her, things are not as stable as the news might say.
	Really?
	Her base and neighboring bases are attacked regularly.
	And now that the bases are open to Afghanistan security forces, suicide bombers are entering the base and killing soldiers and civilians with relative ease.
	Keep assassinating the media for her and all the servicemen and women.
	Yes, we definitely would like to give this karma to them.
	You've got karma.
	Thank you.
	Thank you, Anonymous.
	Ryan Reich in Brooklyn, New York, $100.
	You know what's going to happen?
	One day, we're going to get the knock on the door, and here's the headline.
	Anonymous supported radical podcast.
	Yeah, that's a good one.
	100 bucks.
	Hi, John and Adam.
	Thanks for the job, Carmen.
	March, after I donated, but before the show aired, I had my interview and was offered a freelance gig on the spot.
	All right.
	After a couple of weeks, they offered me a full-time position.
	As promised, here's some money out of my first real paycheck.
	Can I ask her some NYC karma?
	See something, say something.
	So he wants see something, say something.
	NYC karma for his girlfriend.
	Thanks again.
	See something, say something.
	You've got karma.
	Nahal Saeed in Nashville, Tennessee, $100.
	Joseph Theriot in Woodstock, Illinois, $99.99.
	Monarch Senior Care giving a hearty ITM from Gitmo Nation, Woodtucky.
	Donating painfully sober, sad to say, that $99.99 is actually three times $33.33 for extra mystic power.
	Oh, yeah.
	Please just send a karma shout to Monarch Senior Care as we were just getting by taking care of the seniors and vets in Northern Illinois.
	And how about a shout out for my smoking hot wife, Karen.
	Keep up the good work, my friends.
	Read the Hunger Games and shock doctrine, not necessarily in that order.
	So he needs...
	Karma.
	And then a milk.
	Oh, really?
	You've got karma.
	That's one mother I like, though.
	Sir Astrum in Vendel Vosterbottom.
	Hey dudes, the slide whistle kicks ass.
	Its duet form is even better.
	He's 77-77.
	Vote for the slide whistle.
	So did not bring with me.
	Oh.
	Alan Cleland in Dundee Angus.
	72-27.
	Wait a minute.
	You're doing a show without your tools?
	I have the tools I have up here.
	I have separate tools.
	Do you have a clippity-clop tool?
	No, I'm not.
	I can't get through...
	Here's what you need.
	No, no, I can get through security.
	Listen to me.
	Let me be clear.
	You need a flight case.
	Which has foam inside, and in that there's a cutout.
	A cutout for the two coconut halves, a cutout for the slide whistle, a cutout for the train whistle, a cutout for the bell.
	You need a little traveling flight case, my friend.
	Alan Cleland in Dundee, 7227.
	The E in my surname is pronounced like egg, not eel.
	Cleland is what I did.
	Cleland, yeah.
	Hello from Gitmo Nation, Wild Haggis.
	It's a warm sunny day up here in Scotland while the Queen's Jubilee is a washout.
	Maybe they targeted the weather machine a little too far.
	Did you hear about the Queen's Jubilee, what they did to the workers, how they screwed them over?
	No.
	They apparently told them they could all get a gig working for free.
	They had to work for free, like all unpaid interns, to help out on this thing.
	They hired thousands of them.
	And then they gave them a bag lunch and they told them they had to eat the next day.
	They gave them no...
	It started raining on them.
	They had no place to put them, so they put them under an overpass.
	And then they said, you guys can quit and go home if you want to, but if you do, it'll be duly noted on your record, and you may not get a job at the Olympics, and you may lose your Social Security.
	No service for you!
	Did you hear about any of this?
	It's unbelievable.
	No.
	All I heard was Pierce Moron and Brooke on CNN going, It's amazing.
	Look at that.
	Oh, look at it.
	It's beautiful.
	Oh, it's amazing.
	And Pierce kept going on and on.
	Oh, the Royal Air Force fly by.
	The fly by.
	A Lancaster and some Spitfires.
	A fly by.
	I've met the Queen.
	He's a reptile.
	Anyway, I realize I get 50% of my news from Noah Jen and the rest from ZeroHedge.com.
	Yeah, they're pretty good.
	So I decided I should stop being a douchebag and donate for the first time in 2012.
	This donation is the same amount as I pay Richard Branson's Virgin Media each month for the privilege of being lied to by the BBC, CNN, and Fox.
	I like to call my brother out as a douchebag.
	Douchebag!
	He knows who he is.
	He moved to the big city and got himself a shiny new job, but has yet to donate to no agenda, despite listening for years.
	Oh, man, thank you.
	Well, that's a very good point.
	And, of course, you don't only just pay that amount to Richard Branson, but you also have to pay your license for the BBC. You have a license fee which you have to pay, which I think is hefty.
	Isn't it like 200, 300 pounds now a year, I think?
	Yeah, I thought it was 250.
	I don't know what it is.
	I'll check it out.
	But it's not cheap.
	Matt Milligan in Sparks, Nevada.
	6969, keeping the streak alive.
	Hey there, John and Adam.
	Thanks for outstanding insight and entertainment.
	Funds are getting tight over here with a new human resource expecting to show up for work on October 9th.
	And my smoking hot MILF to take a few months off to get the little guy up and running.
	I'll do my best to stop buying the 16-ounce full sugar drinks and save some money and going to the more economically sound 64-ounce at the corner store.
	Screw Bloomberg and the slaves that cower to him.
	Can I get a little girl auditioning saying, shut up, slave, so I can get my three-year-old daughter to get the idea of what the competition is like?
	Also, can I have a shout of karma for my growing family?
	The last thing, my wife is driving me to work today.
	I saw a slow...
	Flying small, windowless, military gray plane over the highway we drive, she immediately yelled, drone!
	We went to take a picture, but the cop behind her and the new anti-phone use while driving scared her from doing so.
	The Ministry of Truth is on to us.
	Yeah, you've got to be very, very careful.
	Good morning.
	Good morning!
	Ding!
	Ding!
	Hot Pockets!
	Oh, boy!
	Wait, that's not the one!
	Right, good!
	Stay back!
	Woo-hoo!
	Adios!
	That's not the one.
	I don't know where the kid is with shut up, so I'll give the karma first.
	You've got karma.
	I have it here somewhere, but it must be mislabeled.
	Shut up, slave.
	I don't know.
	Can't find it.
	Sorry.
	We'll try to find it by the end of the show.
	I will find it, yeah.
	Wicked Slave in Tampa, Florida, 6969, keeping the 6969 meme going.
	It's been about four or five months now.
	Hey, John and Adam in the morning, giving you some value for value after three years of listening and being a douchebag.
	Yeah.
	Could I get de-douched and karma?
	Also, I'd like to call out Florida listeners, all Florida listeners, as douchebags.
	Douchebags!
	Well, not all of them.
	No, that's true.
	Not all of them.
	The ones that donate are not douchebags.
	You've been de-douched.
	You've got karma.
	Free karma.
	Steve Bottoms, Reno, Nevada.
	Another Nevada in for $69.69.
	That's pretty funny.
	Doing his part to keep the streak alive.
	Alex Iacone.
	In Pisa, Italy.
	Buongiorno from the Gitmo Nation Leaning Tower and Chianti.
	This is my first donation and hopefully not the last.
	This period is very, very difficult for us in Gitmo Nation Mandolino.
	But the hope is still there and at least we can enjoy a nice podcast while the boat's sinking.
	I'm actually poor even by Italian standards.
	I have nothing to cut.
	No movies, no cable TV or other BS. So I decided to cut the money for my wife's birthday gift in order to donate.
	55-55.
	Oh, thank you.
	She is French and hot.
	I never saw these photos.
	I sent you photos in the mail.
	I asked for international wire info.
	Her name is Estelle, and I request a MILF karma for her quest to do a better job.
	Please mention Estelle and Agostino's son 10 this year for their birthdays.
	All right.
	Send pictures.
	That's one mother.
	I like this.
	You've got karma.
	Send pictures.
	He also has a little, he'd offer a discount on his Airbnb house here in Tuscany.
	And my sister, you know, they're trying to stop the Airbnb action in New York.
	Why is that?
	Why do you think?
	The hotel lobby got up in everybody's face about, hey, people are staying in other people's houses instead of spending time in the hotel.
	Oh, so they're going to make that illegal?
	Yes.
	You think that'll actually get that through?
	Yes.
	And under what law will they make that illegal?
	You need a permit to rent out rooms.
	Huh.
	145 pounds 50 for color television license.
	No, that's not bad.
	What?
	To be lied to?
	To be lied to.
	So anyway, he's got a place in Tuscany, which is cool, and a sister in Split, Croatia, which is actually cool, too.
	All for No Agenda listeners, that 20% off and we, and Knight's 33% off, his profile number on Airbnb is, take this down, if you're going to Tuscany, 161-2441.
	That's 161-2441.
	And we'll send 33 of the fee to no agenda.
	That's pretty cool.
	That's very cool.
	And it would be, you know, those are good places.
	Split is cool and so is Tuscany.
	Sir Carl Barron from Malmo, Sweden.
	It goes on the dime.
	Asking for some get well karma as I've had this virus from hell.
	That's funny.
	This virus has been all over the place.
	I think my wife had it.
	After I think I've just recovered, I realized it started when I didn't have donated for a while.
	Maybe that's it.
	This might help heal me.
	Yes, sir.
	Greetings from just outside Athens.
	Sir Carl Barron.
	You've got karma.
	Send us a report, man.
	Send us a report on what's going on.
	We want reports, please.
	Yeah, we want to know what's really happening.
	We need arms to boot on the ground.
	In Hendersonville, North Carolina, 5333, finally leaving Saudi Arabia.
	We need a report from you, too.
	So I figured, and also photos, I would donate 5333, which is 200 Saudi Royals.
	Sorry about all the threes, but that is the way it works out.
	The change rate is fixed and never changes.
	Mr.
	Curry should look into that.
	I need a de-douching and a shot of karma for my upcoming trip back to the States.
	You've been de-douched.
	You've got karma.
	Expect to be held up.
	Todd Montgomery in Morgantown, West Virginia.
	Your favorite town, Motown.

	Well, listening to show 414, I grabbed a fortune cookie as a snack.
	It said, small donation is called for.
	It's the right thing to do.
	There you go.
	Well, that's karma talking at you, ain't it?
	Better find this cookie maker.
	Good job, John, on inserting those 10,000 fortunes.
	Shannon Adkins in Warren, Michigan, 50-50.
	Here's my third and fourth Just Getting By contribution to the only show I can honestly say that I look forward to listening to twice a week.
	Sean Pyle, Streamwood, Illinois, $50.09.
	That's a vote against the slide whistle.
	Really needs some new job, Karma.
	Being an IT slave is killing me.
	What would really kick ass is if John came galloping along with his sword drawn and sprinkled Karma as he passed by.
	I know his sweaty hands are itching to bust out his coconuts.
	Also, there's hope for a dramatic increase in slide whistle failures along with the flooding in the Thai slide whistle district causing them to become ridiculously unaffordable.
	Screw the slide whistle.
	I'm sure you have a lot more anti-whistle donations if you weren't making us pay more for our vote.
	Two cents.
	Two cents, yeah.
	It's rigged, I tell you.
	It's rigged.
	It's rigged.
	And balancing off the 09 is $50.07 from Scott Arnotto in Davie, Florida.
	Request for karma from my mom, Sharon, who is with my help.
	Well, who with my help cares for my dad, who had two strokes in the last year.
	I had to quit my job in North Carolina to move home to help her out.
	Yeah, moms are pretty awesome.
	They do really do a lot.
	You've got karma.
	Daniel Torrello in Charleston, one of the prettiest towns in the world, South Carolina, $50.05.
	Please distribute three quarters of the money to Jean-Claude.
	Why?
	Because he has to deal with Adam.
	He makes to it better.
	And just started listening to DH Unplugged.
	Please give my roommate, Michael Ryan, Classy Mike, a congratulatory douchebag.
	Douchebag!
	I'm getting into school and burning out my backlight on my HDTV. I have personal grudges.
	Thanks for the best podcast in the universe.
	Well, there you go.
	That's not very nice.
	Well, no.
	Why don't I just...
	You know what we should do?
	I'll record it on two channels, and you can just turn my channel off and just listen to John.
	Can you imagine?
	Back and forth.
	You know, I did a DH unplugged once in stereo.
	It's no good.
	It's no good.
	It sucks.
	Well, this is in stereo.
	I have the mic centered.
	We're not going to do it off-center.
	Yeah, of course.
	No, you can't go back and forth.
	It's ridiculous.
	I've actually had people suggest it, too, which I think, wow.
	Yeah, when Steros first came out in the mid-50s, everyone was jumping back.
	Hey, how cool is that?
	I'm over here on the left, and you're on the right, John.
	Come on, do it.
	Hello there.
	I'm over on the right.
	I'm over here.
	Peter Luckraft in Masclat, in France.
	$50.
	Must be drunk again.
	Good luck to you both, plus a bit of karma for our new president.
	He'll need it.
	Yeah.
	You've got karma.
	Our resident actress, Tanya Fosters, in San Francisco gave us $50 for show 415 birthday shout-out for our precious human resource Ava, or Ava Ava, who was born on 415.
	This might be a new way to get people to donate more money.
	A birthday shout-out on their real birthday, and also on the episode that corresponds to their birthday.
	My husband thought of this and therefore gets all the props.
	We will definitely put Ava.
	Is it Ava or Ava?
	I think it's Ava.
	Well, she's in the chat room, I'm sure.
	Is it Ava or Ava?
	She'll let us know.
	Jeffrey Molnar in Omaha, Nebraska, $50.
	The goose hung high in Framingham, Massachusetts.
	$50.
	Adam Colby, Sir Adam Colby, to you in Menasha, Wisconsin, $50 from him.
	And Philip Meason in Welshpool, Pow's, UK, $50.
	And I want to thank them and all the other donors for the show 415 to keep the show alive.
	And we hope that if you want to sneak in and get a cheap executive producership for your bio, I'm absolutely sure on Sunday you can do it.
	We need to pick up our numbers a little bit for Sunday.
	Let me say this about that.
	So Sunday was abysmal.
	Today, we know the summer months are always going to be low, so this is lower than normal.
	Remember, this is all we do, right?
	So this is, at least, John writes some columns and he does some other charity work like that Twitch show.
	But, you like that?
	But in order to keep us going, we do have to also live the American dream of just getting by.
	And what I'm seeing on the list...
	Is the donations are coming from existing donors.
	Yes, people haven't donated in a while.
	I see a lot of knights who are always there to support us.
	And, of course, that is their job.
	They need to propagate the formula.
	It's part of what you do as a No Agenda Knight.
	But we need to see new people.
	Now, we know that no more than 2% of the audience is supporting the program.
	I mean, we're coming into the summer months.
	If Sunday is really another down day, then, John, I would just suggest we take July off.
	I mean, I can do other things.
	July was terrible last year.
	I know, and that's where we're headed.
	So, if we don't get the new people, if I don't see 10 new people on the list, I'm going to suggest, and we can have a meeting about it, I'm going to suggest, why don't we just take July off, we'll come back in August, because it won't make any difference.
	You know, there's other things I can do.
	You know, I can do more auditions, I'm sure I could be on, well, that would be charity, because the tweet doesn't pay, but I'm, or, you know, I'll just, it won't make any difference.
	It just won't make any difference.
	Well, my only...
	I mean, I have my wedding coming up in the last newsletter.
	Well, you might want to take that day off, but I mentioned in the last newsletter that we do have people that are dependent on hearing this show twice a week.
	I mean, they are on commutes.
	They've got to drive and drive and drive, and there's no real substitute for this show.
	This is the interesting thing.
	I saw a, you know, everyone's analyzing Facebook.
	By the way, it looks like my $17 a share is going to come true before I even thought it would come true.
	And there was a report about mobile usage, about radio and television.
	It was a really big report.
	I have to find out where, I stored it somewhere.
	I'll see if I can put it in the show notes.
	And the one thing it said is that American commuters, but I think this is worldwide, are woefully underserved with media in their automobiles.
	I'm thinking, well, people who listen to No Agenda are not woefully underserved.
	I think that they may still be underserved, but not woefully.
	And there's a couple other podcasts out there that are certainly worth listening to.
	And this is where I think most of our audience is.
	No, they're in the car.
	They're in the car.
	Five hours of the show.
	There are people that listen to the show that aren't commuters, and they are always behind.
	Because it's easier, if you're driving for 45 minutes to work or half an hour, it's perfect, because then you get your whole five hours in.
	Because an hour in and an hour back, and that's five days a week, that's five hours, that's our show.
	So which is a common commute time, you know, 25 to 35 minutes is not unusual.
	But I'll tell you, so we're leaving on I think the 9th, and we have a, so we arrive on the 10th, Which is a Wednesday, I think.
	And then I'm going to be prepping.
	You know, jet lag to be prepping.
	Then we have...
	No, that's a Tuesday.
	But I'll still be jet lag.
	Prepping on Wednesday.
	Then we have the show on Thursday.
	Then we have our bachelor party on Friday.
	So then we kind of recuperate on Saturday, I guess.
	It's going to be a big party.
	And then I've got to prep, and then on Sunday I do another show, and then on Monday is a wedding.
	I don't feel like doing that if we don't have boners out there becoming donors.
	And this is not about the amount of money.
	This is about the principle question.
	Just the principle of the value-for-value model, that there are a lot of people out there who are being served by us in the car.
	And they're not stepping up.
	I just need to see some new names on this list.
	Because that's what troubles me most.
	There are people who have donated thousands of dollars over the course of their listenership in five years.
	That's a lot of money.
	But other people are just boning around.
	And I'm really serious about my suggestion.
	Why don't we just take July off?
	I got a wedding.
	Let me see.
	Oh, yeah.
	You know, it's not a minor deal, and I have two shows planned.
	I'm sure they'll come through for this Sunday.
	I mean, it's just essentially, these Sundays are going to be miserable.
	Alright, I think your point's well taken.
	Elise Garling, who was a $33.33 a month donor, says, Hey Adam, I've been listening since apes on iPads.
	I'm fully hooked.
	I propagate the formula constantly and have successfully converted a few.
	However, not my husband.
	He hates you.
	I think there's still hope.
	I've been away, so I just listened to the last few shows in a row and just joined the Super Lucky Club.
	The shows are great for long flights and focusing on your show recently helped me from passing out.
	Literally, my flight anxiety is getting worse with every trip.
	Anyhow, as I sell my jewelry, the more I'll donate.
	But in the meantime, $33.33 a month is better than nothing.
	And you can find her at EliseGarling.com.
	Elise Garling's jewelry.
	Actually, not bad.
	Her jewelry looks pretty good.
	Yeah, it's kind of nice stuff.
	And while you're taking a look, I will tell everyone where they can support this Value for Value program.
	FBORAC.ORG. Slash N.A.
	It's your birthday, birthday.
	Aye, aye, aye!
	On No Agenda!
	And we congratulate Derek Johnson's girlfriend, Stacy, celebrating today, and Tanya Foster's daughter, Abba, born on 415, which corresponds, of course, with episode 415.
	And we are so happy for you and for your hubby.
	Happy birthday from all anybody's here at the No Agenda Show!
	It's your birthday, yeah!
	So my favorite country in the world, and I always like to see what's going on since we had the big concert and everyone put hands together and we circled the globe and we all raised billions of dollars for Haiti.
	Oh, it was so beautiful.
	And of course...
	You could even punch a couple of numbers into your phone and ten bucks would go there.
	That's right.
	That's right.
	And I'm sorry, it didn't just go to Haiti.
	It went to the Bush-Clinton Foundation before it went to the Clinton for Haiti Foundation.
	And here's how...
	Remember, they came on television with President Barack Obama.
	We had two former presidents, George W. Bush and Clinton, and what did they say?
	We just need cash.
	I know a lot of people want to send blankets or water.
	Just send your cash.
	That's right.
	Just send your cash.
	And boy, did we billions of dollars, which has not shown up.
	No one can account for it.
	It's mysteriously gone.
	Countries haven't...
	And of course, did we call that immediately?
	Immediately.
	Because we've seen this same scam with all these different events, these rock concerts.
	Remember the television show?
	Yeah, George Clooney produced it.
	Yeah, it was huge.
	But everyone felt really good after that.
	Crap from people for pointing out that this was a scam.
	Well, here's the biggest part of the scam.
	I did watch some Democracy Now this past week.
	After years of rumors that mining companies were exploring in Haiti, Canadian and U.S. corporations now confirm they have permits to mine as much as one-third of the land in the northern part of the country.
	Haiti's new prime minister says the estimated $20 billion worth of minerals in Haiti's hills.
	Let me just repeat that.
	$20 billion worth of minerals and gold in the hills of northern Haiti We could help liberate it from dependency on foreign aid and rebuild from the devastating 2010 earthquake.
	But many worry the mines will be a boom for foreign investors and a bust for local communities.
	You think?
	Furthermore, we're joined by Jane Regan, lead author of Gold Rush in Haiti, Who Will Get Rich?
	The report by Haiti Grassroots Watch was published Wednesday in The Guardian and also in Haiti Liberté.
	The investigation was made possible in part by a grant from the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting.
	We invited representatives from the two mining companies featured in the report, but both Eurasian Minerals and Newmont Mining Corporation declined our request.
	Jane Regan, welcome to my show.
	So Eurasian Minerals, they're basically a tool maker.
	So the real company there is Newmont Mining Corporation.
	Oh, that's good news.
	Yes.
	Well, and I was perusing through their website because, of course, you know, they didn't discuss this on Democracy Now.
	I don't understand why they don't do a little bit of Googling.
	Newmont.com, November Echo, Whiskey, Mike, Oscar, November Tango.
	And so, a nice little article here on Haiti's road to hope.
	And, oh, gee, what do I see here?
	Newmont supported Haiti during the last six months by...
	Providing a $1 million cash contribution to the Clinton-Bush-Haiti Fund to support critical relief efforts following the earthquake.
	Shysters show up and take advantage of people's goodwill and generosity.
	That's right.
	So that's how it works.
	You donate a million dollars to the Bush-Clinton cabal, and then all of a sudden you get mining rights for $20 billion.
	And what do the people of Haiti get?
	Cholera.
	Oh, that's so nice.
	Cholera, here.
	Here, why don't you poop your guts out, little stupid slave.
	It's disgusting to me.
	From the UN. From the UN. This is so disgusting.
	No one...
	I mean, this report on Democracy Now!
	Whatever.
	But they didn't actually call out the real connection, which is so disappointing.
	They just say evil people, evil white people.
	Yeah, got it.
	But you've got to make the connection between who really did this.
	This was Clinton and Bush with their bonanza.
	We've got the Red Cross building a hotel.
	A hotel and a conference center.
	Yeah.
	And meanwhile, people are pooping.
	Sad.
	Just sad.
	Very, very sad.
	That is a pathetic story.
	Yeah.
	I'll save that one for a little bit later.
	So the campaign kind of continues.
	I got a whole bunch of clips.
	It's kind of like a reality show in a way where if you can collect enough of the bull crap, you can kind of build a story out of it.
	Now, I haven't really...
	I've done that, per se.
	But we're seeing, as a part of the elites, I think making the decision that Mitt Romney should be the next puppet as the leader of Gitmo Nation, that they're trying to discredit the president.
	And so, you know, we had these reports come out in the New York Times, and first about the drone program making Obama look like a crazed lunatic with his baseball cards, which I think...
	I think the administration thought that was going to be good, which is why I think they're trying to push this, we got the number two guy, whatever, to make it sound like these baseball cards are worth something.
	Unfortunately, they forgot to reshuffle the deck and put the number two guy in the number two spot, as we've just deconstructed for you.
	But the guy who reported this was David E. Sanger.
	Who is, I might add, according to the Book of Knowledge, a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.
	So much for your independent journalist over there at the New York Times.
	What I didn't realize is that he's today releasing a book.
	And all this information that was in the New York Times was actually an excerpt from his book.
	Did you realize this?
	No, that's funny.
	Yeah.
	That's the way it's done nowadays.
	So his name is David E. Sanger.
	And I got a couple of clips about this because we have the left-leaning media not happy with what they are discovering about President Obama and his obsession with the drones and the covert war and really the leaks.
	And you'll see even Democratic news.
	government officials coming out saying, hey, this is not okay.
	So there is a war against Obama here.
	This is the first Sanger.
	Well, Andrea, I was trying to be very careful in the course of what I did.
	Obviously, the Iranians knew a lot and learned a lot after the U.S. and Israel made a major mistake, and the mistake became known as Stuxnet.
	It was when the worm, the computer worm that was put into the Natanz plant, Got out by accident.
	There was a programming error, and it went out through the laptop of an Iranian engineer, and he connected to the Internet.
	It got out to the world.
	That's what caused the leak.
	And what I did was then pull on the string of Stuxnet to see what was connected.
	What is this, like an intelligence tampon?
	I don't understand the pull on the string.
	And discovered a much wider program, which was called Olympic Games.
	careful about this, as we do with the New York Times, as you do at NBC.
	And that is, I said from the beginning, we would publish information that the Iranians had already figured out, and they knew they had been attacked, and they suspected where they were attacked from.
	As I say at the end of the book, I withheld some details about current and future operations, and I was very careful not to publish enough detail about how the worm got in that it would preclude that issue as well.
	Okay, so he is basically saying that he has a lot more information that he did not disclose in his book Nor in his New York Times article, which is an excerpt from his book.
	So there's a lot of information being leaked to journalists.
	So we have Obama's nemesis, who is a Democrat, Feinstein from California.
	Now she leads the House...
	Yeah, she's House Intelligence.
	Right.
	So she actually was the one before the president announced to the world that we had captured, I mean, killed Bin Laden, which everyone keeps messing up, by the way.
	I keep hearing more people say captured and killed.
	She actually popped that like an hour and a half before the president did at some kind of fundraiser.
	It was a eulogy for the guy who had gotten killed.
	Not Bin Laden, but the Democratic operative.
	So here is Feinstein with Blitzer in the Situation Room.
	We have an enormously smart constituency of journalists...
	Wait a minute.
	You're telling me that the journalists are really smart?
	Who follow this, who piece things together, who get one little piece somewhere, and a second little piece another place, and a third and a fourth, and put it all together.
	And this is what we've got to now begin to pay some attention to.
	Because it's going to result in the inability of the United States to be able to have an intelligence profile, an intelligence apparatus that's able to protect this country.
	And she goes on and she says, American lives are at risk as a result of all of these leaks.
	Now, you have a new book that's out with a lot of sensitive information in there.
	What do you say when you hear...
	This is another guy with a book.
	It's incredible.
	...these complaints.
	Well, I think Senator Dianne Feinstein, for whom I have a great deal of admiration, I think just described very accurately what journalists do, which is to...
	Which is basically take leaks from the White House.
	So then we have MSNBC, without a doubt, a very left-leaning organization.
	And Chris Hayes...
	I'm not saying...
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	MSNBC. Yeah, totally.
	So Chris Hayes is the host, and he has Jeremy Scahill on, who is either a journalist or maybe the editor of The Nation.
	And I believe The Nation is also a left-leaning...
	No, it's beyond that.
	It's progressive to the nth.
	Did you hear what Jeremy Scahill was saying about the president?
	Jeremy, you used the word murder before when you talked about the people who have been killed by these strikes who are not combatants we can establish.
	And obviously that's a loaded word because it carries certain moral and legal ramifications.
	Why do you use that word?
	If someone goes into a shopping mall in pursuit of one of their enemies and opens fire on a crowd of people and guns down a bunch of innocent people in a shopping mall, they've murdered those people.
	When the Obama administration sets a policy where patterns of life are enough of a green light to drop missiles on people or to send in AC-130s to spray them down.
	But that wasn't the case here.
	You're talking about a targeted person.
	No, no, no.
	If you go to the village of Al-Majla in Yemen, where I was, and you see the unexploded cluster bombs, and you have the list and photographic evidence, as I do, the women and children that represented the vast majority of the deaths in the first strike that Obama authorized on Yemen, those people were murdered by President Obama on his orders.
	Because there was believed to be someone from al-Qaeda in that area.
	There's only one person that's been identified that had any connection to al-Qaeda there.
	And 21 women and 14 children were killed in that strike.
	And the U.S. tried to cover it up and say it was a Yemeni strike.
	And we know from the WikiLeaks cables that David Petraeus conspired with the president of Yemen to lie to the world about who did that bombing.
	It's murder.
	It's mass murder.
	When you say, we are going to bomb this area because we believe a terrorist is there, and you know that women and children are in the area, The United States has an obligation to not bomb that area if they believe that women and children are there.
	I'm sorry, that's Mark.
	He's not an editor, by the way.
	He's a freelance investigative journalist that happens to write for the nation once in a while.
	And a couple other things.
	One, as a progressive...
	And MSNBC is really a spokeshole for the administration in most situations.
	So they'll push back against the progressive, because most of the progressives, which are the Democracy Now!
	He is from Democracy Now!, right?
	Isn't he also on Democracy Now!
	He's freelance, but I think he does a lot of Democracy Now!
	He probably does.
	He's also been on Stewart.
	But the Democracy Now and those guys, they push a little more.
	They are really upset about Obama.
	They're the ones, and they're all Democrats, and they're extremely upset, and they're the ones pushing the, you know, because it's like, we didn't want another George Bush.
	Well, here's another MSNBC bit.
	This is where we have Stanger's on the show.
	I don't know who this is.
	It's kind of like one of those morning shows.
	It's a drippy drab show.
	And I really don't care, but it just gives you, you know, you brought this up, and I thought you were so right on.
	That Democrats and people on the left are very, you know, uncomfortable that the president seems to be doing this with such ease and that he isn't toiling for hours and looking out the window.
	We've all seen the beautiful pictures, you know, and head in hand.
	Oh, I don't know if I can do this.
	I'm going to kill another person.
	I might kill some innocents.
	He has no problem with it.
	Still do attacks.
	So I think he is conflicted by these, but I do believe, as I wrote in this, they hide behind the secrecy of both programs, particularly the cyber program, to not discuss it.
	So the United States has never acknowledged ever using a cyber weapon.
	For drones, you can't deny it.
	I mean, you see the results.
	Yeah, well, but it's also a question as to how the president's constituents deal with this.
	And Steve, we've talked about the very uncomfortable position.
	I think this puts a lot of folks on the left.
	I mean, there's been, to some degree, a lack of discussion about this, I think, because it's hard for people to wrap their heads around.
	I mean, this idea that President Obama is continuing, and in some cases amplifying the programs put in place by the Bush administration on very sensitive...
	Actually, he amplified all of them.
	Yes, or all of them.
	Well, it seems like you talk about, you know, missing the opportunity to have the discussion with the American people and to explain some of these things.
	Part of me, sort of the cynical part of me says, well, that's basically to avoid exactly what you're talking about.
	If you expose this, if the Democratic Party base that was revolted when all the revelations about George W. Bush came out really grasped some of the things that was going on.
	You know, he had that kill list story.
	There was an item in there that basically said, when these drone strikes take place and it comes time to tally up how many are killed, any male, basically, Any male in an area of combat is considered an enemy combatant.
	So if you are too stupid to understand what's going on here, luckily, we have Aaron Burnett.
	And Erin Burnett, they should drone CNN headquarters.
	She's standing there, John, I kid you not, with a kitchen funnel, with a salad bowl, and a bottle of water.
	Required, you know, a little bit of a setup here.
	Top secret intelligence leaking out of Washington like a sieve.
	Can you believe this?
	Is that a sieve or is that a funnel?
	It's a funnel.
	Well, you know what a sieve is, right?
	Yeah, that's not a sieve.
	A funnel's not a sieve.
	She should have said funnel.
	She doesn't even get the right implement correct.
	It's unbelievable.
	So she's pouring water in a funnel.
	Yeah, and she's calling it a sieve.
	She's making this commentary?
	Yeah, and she's calling it a sieve.
	You're watching too much CNN to catch this.
	I must say, her waist has tightened up a bit.
	Oh, you can believe that they're giving her bloody hell.
	It's cinched.
	Okay, and then the final one, because, of course, we think that John McCain, he is the ultimate pitchman.
	He's the guy that was right there leading around the top oil companies through Libya.
	And I'm sure when Syria falls, he'll be there with, again, all the top oil companies and military brass.
	And he'll do the same in Yemen.
	This guy is a total prick.
	An a-hole.
	And he's on Charlie Rose this morning with CBS. And he's not having any of this number two, and Al-Qaeda's core is gone, and oh no, he's very angry about the leaks, because this, of course, is completely coming from the Oval Office.
	But he says something which is just like, whoa.
	Good morning, Charlie.
	Tell me specifically what it is about these leaks that you think compromise national security.
	Well, two of the highest priorities that we have, as far as national security is concerned, is the issue of the Iranian nuclear build-up, the attempts of Iran to acquire nuclear weapons.
	And the other, of course, is the issue of drones, which are one of the key elements, as you just described in the previous story, and how we will keep al-Qaeda down.
	And, by the way, I take a little issue with...
	The previous report, Al-Qaeda is making a comeback.
	John!
	They're making a comeback!
	Don't call it a comeback!
	We've got to get LL Cool J to do an Al-Qaeda comeback.
	They're making a comeback.
	They're making a comeback!
	Wow.
	Wow.
	Well, he's obviously just stooging for the $3 trillion going down the tubes in the Pentagon that's sinking the country.
	That's fine, I guess.
	That's patriotic.
	Have you heard the president's latest thing about the economy?
	Why we're all down?
	No.
	I'm going to hear about it, though.
	Oops, you talked over it.
	Hold on.
	Here we go.
	A lot of that's attributable to Europe and the cloud that's coming over from the Atlantic and the whole world economy has been weakened by it.
	It's the cloud coming over from Europe.
	They got the wrong Obama.
	Well, Haiku Herman is pissed.
	He's not having this blame anymore.
	Oh, by the way, he's in Russia.
	He's standing next to Putin when he says this.
	Here we go.
	For some reason.
	We have to put a lot of nuances in this blaming in some way of the Eurozone for the so-called problems of the world economy.
	Now, you've never heard this guy really raise his voice.
	This is the first time I'm seeing him cracking under the pressure.
	First of all, We have our problems, they are very well known, but world economic growth is also suffering from problems In some of the emerging economies, not the Russian economy, of course, but some of the emerging countries are facing huge problems.
	And what we are living now, what we are experiencing now, you can't compare this with a huge financial crisis of 2008 and 2009.
	Nine, coming from the other side of the ocean.
	Oh!
	Then at that time, we had overall in Europe, in the European Union, a recession.
	He is pissed.
	You got to be troubled.
	Thank you.
	This is the song for Heiko Herrmann.
	That sucks.
	I was going to play the tremolos.
	It sucks, can't hear a word of it.
	So he, of course, we have to hearken back, because we were doing the show during this, and it was all those Europeans that were so, oh, it's your problem, not ours, you suck, you guys can sink on your own, we've got nothing to do with you, and especially the Scottish banks.
	Yeah, and now we're saying it's our fault, and Obama's saying, no, it's your fault.
	That's why I wanted to play.
	You've got your troubles.
	I've got mine.
	But YouTube failed me.
	Yeah, so this is an issue.
	I wonder what the connection is with Putin's got to do with this.
	Well, he was there.
	I didn't clip it because it was uninteresting.
	But, you know, he's looking for investment from Russia.
	Haiku Herman is?
	Yes, he said it.
	He's looking for a bailout?
	Yep, from Russia.
	Well, and it makes kind of sense.
	You know, I think if Putin wants to do anything...
	We have this BRICS central bank that they're trying to set up with Brazil, India, China, and Russia, which would not trade on the dollar.
	So they're trying to make a reserve currency.
	The euro, by definition, they've always tried to make that de facto reserve currency, which is, I'm pretty sure, why Goldman Sachs was sent in to assassinate the system.
	And I'm sure we're actually the ones that are...
	This is what Haiku Herman is saying.
	You're screwing us.
	Yeah, well, maybe we are.
	You are such a Yankee doodle.
	Today?
	Yeah.
	Because you sold me on Clinton.
	Yeah, but I mean...
	On Hillary.
	But you're not supposed to actually think it's a good thing.
	I don't see why it's not.
	Euro is down to $1.25.
	When it gets down to below $1, I'm going to be a happy camper.
	I can go back to Europe and hang out.
	Get some hookers.
	Yeah.
	What happened to...
	Explain this to me.
	So I saw the market...
	The oil is down to $84.
	Yeah.
	So I saw the market go down and down and down, and then all of a sudden it pops up like a mofo.
	What happened?
	How does that work?
	Yeah, it's corrupt!
	Oh, okay.
	It's rigged.
	Is that because Bernanke or someone at the Fed said, you know, we might have to do another printing of money, another quantitative easing, a QE3? Is that the reason why?
	I think so, and I think they have to do that, because essentially, you know, people moan and groan about...
	Sergey Brin just sold $47 million worth of Google stock.
	There's a man who's getting laid.
	The way a monetary system works, despite all the gold bugs thinking it doesn't work this way, is you do have to regulate the amount of money that's in circulation.
	And you do that, and you balance it out based on inflation.
	And even though the European economists are now realizing you have to have some inflation, you have to have some here too.
	Because we got none.
	I mean, we do have some, but it's not enough.
	We have to crank up the...
	We cranked up QE1, QE2, and it didn't cause the whole runaway inflation.
	It's going to be like Germany in the 30s, which is bullcrap.
	And so you've got to get it up a little more.
	So they're going to have to do a QE3 to push it, because although...
	I mean, I think it's a great thing to do because that's what happened during the 1850s.
	How much QE do you need?
	How much of the cure do you need?
	Well, that's the problem because of everyone being gutless about this.
	But wait a minute.
	This is very important because I know that you're big on this and you think it should be trillions of dollars and that's probably what it would take.
	But if you essentially print trillions of dollars, doesn't that dilute our money by definition?
	If there's no inflation of any sort, unless there's some outside influence, it dilutes our dollars insofar as foreign trade is concerned, making usually our stuff cheaper, relatively cheaper.
	I don't have any stuff.
	No, but it's not going to cost you – when you go to your farmer's market, the dozen eggs is still going to be $1 or $2 or $4, whatever you pay.
	It's not going to change any of that.
	So what difference does it make?
	You just have more money in your pocket to buy more eggs.
	Wait, wait, wait.
	How do I get more money?
	Well, what's going to happen is you put the money in circulation and it causes the pull-through that the economy needs.
	The real job creators or the public, if they had given the money instead of the stupid banks and given it to the public, which is the way it worked during the gold rush.
	Well, now you're sounding like an Obama bot.
	So am I just supposed to hear and say, give me some money?
	No, no, Obama's against all this.
	There's no Obama bots that say this.
	Give me some money?
	Well, how do I get my money?
	I think you can do some, there's all kinds, well, you probably won't get any.
	Oh, thank you.
	That wouldn't be my point.
	Once the money gets into circulation, it will create jobs, but it has to go into circulation from below.
	Obama, all he does is give the money to the banks and they just sit on it because they're unsure about what's going to happen in the future and then get some interest out of it.
	Very little, but it's safe, so they're not going to loan the money to anybody.
	There has to be pulls or the public has to have them.
	So are you on board then with...
	This is very interesting to me.
	Are you on board then with infrastructure projects?
	I mean, is that what we should be doing with the money?
	If we create all this money, where is it supposed to go?
	And how does that not create inflation?
	I just don't understand the principles of how it works.
	Debt relief would be one way with people that are underwater on their loans.
	I don't have any loans.
	That would be forced on the bank to say, look, you have to do this much debt restructuring because somebody owes $300,000 on their house.
	There's no reason that they have to be paying 20% interest.
	Hold on a second.
	That's not fair.
	Where do I get my share?
	I don't have a loan.
	It's bullcrap.
	I don't like your idea.
	That's your Obama bot thing.
	No, it's never going to be fair.
	You'll benefit from it at some point.
	Because everybody will.
	But these guys who are suckered into buying these places, it's not like they're not going to pay off the loan.
	It's not that all you're doing is forcing the banks in some way.
	You say, here, you can have $10 billion, but it's got to go right down to the homeowners, let's say, in a debt restructuring situation.
	Yeah, but if you restructure the debt...
	I understand.
	So one way or the other, you're giving the money indirectly to the bankers.
	If there were provisions for the banks, you'd take the money back from them if they didn't do what they have to do.
	It has to get distributed somehow.
	You can't just set up shop in the corner and write welfare checks.
	But the banks were given all this money with no provisals to do anything with it.
	So they just sat on it.
	Okay, hold on a second.
	I make you now...
	John C. Dvorak, chairman of the Federal Reserve Board.
	You can now print $4 trillion, which of course is just ones and zeros.
	It's not really printing anything.
	What are you going to do with it?
	Let's just say you're in control.
	Where does this money go so that it doesn't bail out banks?
	It has to go to debt relief.
	That's for the public, not for the banks, or not for Morgan Stanley.
	Programs have to be developed to make sure that everybody that owes money on stuff are not paying these ridiculous interest rates, or they're underwater to a point where it's cheaper to walk.
	But that's a bailout!
	It is a bailout, but it's a bailout for the public.
	Okay, so then your theory is, let's say someone's paying some ridiculous amount on a car loan or credit cards, and then the way it goes is they don't actually print.
	So are you going to say, okay, your debt relief comes in the form of money, you pay off the bank, they have to lower your fee?
	Is that what you're saying?
	No, I think the banks have to restructure every loan that they've done, especially these balloon payments.
	They're all owned by all these loans.
	You don't have to print money for that.
	You just have to tell the bank, screw you, you got to lower it or we'll kill you.
	We'll drone you.
	You could actually, you don't have to print money for that, but I think if we start adding it up, you're going to have to.
	I like the idea of just telling the banks, here's the set rate, this is a new law.
	This is really bad.
	And you can't charge anyone more than 2%.
	Because then everyone would have lots of money to give to us for the show.
	Right?
	Yeah.
	That's the idea.
	What do you think I'm working here for?
	I think your plan is leaky.
	It is, so I don't have it.
	It's not like something I'm working on, but I'm just saying you've got to get more money in circulation.
	Well, so then not a way to do that is to build stuff.
	Well, how about just paying down our debt?
	That we have to other countries.
	I don't know.
	That'll put us under in no time.
	We need $30 trillion pushed into the economy.
	Oh, okay.
	Hold on a second.
	I just made $30 trillion.
	New problemo.
	Yeah, we will never get that much.
	It's going to be two, three, four trillion maybe.
	But it's at least, you know, a start.
	At least it's something.
	I don't know.
	Honestly, I don't like your plan.
	I don't think it's a good plan.
	Yeah, of course you don't.
	Nobody would like such an idea, and that's why we're going to go into a deep depression.
	Because nobody, you know, I think Bernanke gets it, but his ideas fall on deaf ears.
	I think you have a wrong view of how to do this.
	I think we shoot the bankers.
	Well, this is an alternative plan I wouldn't disagree with.
	And I would like to give every webcam girl and hooker an extra $10,000.
	This is a tip.
	Thank you.
	I would abolish...
	Well, anyway.
	I gotta write my plan.
	Webcam girl.
	Yeah.
	It's a tough life.
	Tough life.
	Tough life.
	Anyway.
	How many webcam girls must there be?
	There's probably thousands of them.
	Oh, how about hundreds of thousands?
	Hundreds of thousands.
	Oh, this is such a big deal.
	Anyway, Moody's did downgrade six German banks.
	I thought that was a nice shot across the bow there from the American elites.
	Yeah, I like that.
	Yeah, it was like, hey, Merkel, watch this, biatch.
	So, no, I mean, this is clearly meant to bring down Europe, and it's going to suck for all of us, unfortunately.
	But I feel worse for the Europeans, because they're being sold a bunch of hooey, which is really quite bad.
	Where are we at?
	I'll save my zombie news for Sunday because I've really...
	Oh, okay.
	Yeah, everyone should stay tuned for zombie news.
	I've really delved into it.
	Well, there is something interesting going on with the bath salts and some interesting theories about this.
	Yeah?
	Yeah.
	Okay, we'll save it.
	That sounds like a good teaser.
	A good teaser.
	I'm definitely tuning in.
	Yeah.
	And we could wind up with the latest Shut Up Slave moment.
	Oh, that's always good for...
	There is a crackdown beginning across...
	Oh, by the way, this is Diane Sawyer again.
	Back it up.
	The same outfit.
	Looking hot.
	Looking hot for 72.
	Crackdown.
	There is a crackdown beginning across the country tonight on a serious threat to highway safety.
	What could that be, John?
	A serious threat to highway safety.
	That would be signs on the side of the road, Burma shave or zombies walking around the highway.
	No, no.
	All wrong.
	All wrong.
	Drivers who like to keep their pets in their laps are on a seat unrestrained.
	It is a hazard for people and pets.
	Here's ABC's Dan Harris.
	Hey Dan.
	The windswept canine drinking in the open air?
	It's an icon of the American road.
	We drive with them on our laps and sometimes even give them free rein in the car.
	But while we're all well versed in the dangers of texting and driving...
	Great sound effects.
	AAA finds nearly a third of all drivers today admit to being distracted by their pets, too.
	States are starting to move on this.
	Hawaii now outlawing drivers from holding a pet on their lap.
	Rhode Island and Oregon may do the same, while drivers in Arizona, Connecticut, and Maine now face fines.
	Notice Texas not on that lineup of idiocy.
	You know, in Texas you can still ride in the back of the pickup truck.
	Yeah, I wouldn't want to do that.
	It's hard on the back.
	It's cool.
	I like that.
	Did you know that the studies that are finally starting to show up now indicate that salt is not that bad at all?
	Oh, that's why...
	They're switching.
	I haven't seen the studies yet.
	That's interesting.
	We'll get you some data.
	We'll talk about it in an upcoming show.
	Maybe Sunday.
	We'll talk about salt and some other things.
	It turns out that they made a kind of a logical error to blame salt for all the bad things that go on.
	Oh no.
	Oh no.
	So I think they're going to plug on this salt and they're going to go after now dogs.
	This report, if you have a chance, look it up in the show notes.
	415.mashownotes.com is really great because then I think what's happening here is the AAA is going to be selling approved belts for dogs.
	That's a big bonanza for them.
	What is this going to be like?
	Most dogs won't put up with being...
	They want to stick their head out the window.
	And by the way, I have a theory as to why that is.
	Oh.
	Dogs have this unbelievable 100,000 times or 10,000, some huge amount of relationship to what we can smell, what they can smell.
	They smell everything.
	They can smell direction.
	And so when they stick their head out the window, it's like an acid trip for them.
	Because they're getting all these aromas from all...
	The car's zooming by.
	And that's why, if you notice, they're always sniffing at the air.
	The dog's getting high.
	He's getting high.
	They're getting wasted on all these really crazy smells.
	And this is the other thing I've noticed.
	I believe this to be true, too.
	You ever notice how dogs go after a mailman, but usually the UPS guy coming up the steps, the dog will...
	Go after the door and they just go nuts.
	They bark crazy because to a dog, because of their nose, that UPS guy doesn't represent some person coming up to steps.
	The UPS guy represents thousands of people because of all the smells in the truck and he's handling all these packages.
	The dog thinks there's like a whole army of zombies outside.
	He thinks an army is coming up to steps and the dog goes crazy.
	Ha ha!
	I like the thought of my dog just getting wasted.
	Hey boss, let me put my head out.
	No wonder they have such a goofy look on their faces when they do that.
	They're hammered.
	That's a good thing.
	They actually have a dog in this report.
	And they strap him down with this handy dog belt.
	And the dog is so tight, he can only lay on his back.
	And the report's like, look how much he likes it!
	Yeah!
	The dog doesn't like it.
	This is crazy.
	Yeah, that's the stupidest thing ever.
	This is absolutely crazy.
	Anyway, so we've got also the war on drugs, some interesting stuff that I've been researching.
	But I think we'll also follow the F-Russia meme.
	It's kind of fun to watch what Lucifer's next move will be.
	Or Russia's next move, for that matter.
	It could happen in just a number of days.
	And we'd like to see some of you boners out there, as you were called by your fellow donors.
	Step up to the plate and help us out.
	So we can get through these summer months.
	So remember, Dvorak.org slash NA. If you are in line for a night ring, by the way, we have an email address for that.
	Rings at noagendanation.com.
	Rings at noagendanation.com.
	You have to do your own accounting on these things.
	That's very important because we have no staff.
	And Alex Jones has much more money than us.
	Yeah, I heard that.
	He sure doesn't wear it.
	Coming to you from Gitmo Nation, Drone Star State.
	That'll be the capital, Austin, Texas.
	In the morning, everybody, my name is Adam Curry.
	And from lookout point over the San Juan de Fuca Sanctuary in northern Washington, where the USA meets Canada, in Studio B, I'm John C. Dvorak.
	We'll talk to you again on Sunday right here on No Agenda.
