	Adam Curry, John C. Devorak.
	It's Sunday, October 2nd, 2016.
	This is your award-winning Gitmo Nation media assassination episode 865.
	This is no agenda.
	Awaiting the October surprise and broadcasting live from the capital of the drone star state here in Austin Tejas, FEMA Region 6.
	In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley where Confucius says, man who drink too much, think too little.
	I'm John C. Devorak.
	All right, you get one email from someone saying, I like the Confucius opening.
	That's great.
	And then you're all in on it?
	Okay.
	I'm easy.
	I heard that about you.
	Here we are, John.
	October.
	Time for the surprise.
	That's right.
	Woo!
	I'm ready.
	I'm getting rumors about the Assange WikiLeaks surprise, but there's supposed to be more, even.
	Have you heard anything about what might be coming?
	Absolutely nothing.
	No, nothing?
	No.
	Well, would you like to hear what I've heard?
	I'm all in.
	Go.
	Okay.
	So, there will be video accompanying some form of October surprise, and the video would, or videos apparently would show The connections with, I think it's actually Hillary and Chelsea have some foundation in Switzerland, and that's where Saudi money is coming in.
	So they have to, more than a video, they have to have some documentation of that.
	I would hope.
	Apparently there's video of Hillary Clinton disparaging blacks.
	Huh.
	Well, that sounds like an easy one to dig up.
	I guess you could dig that up on anybody.
	God forbid if I ever run for office.
	Yeah, you'd be screwed.
	That guy?
	Nah, never him.
	So, yeah, I'm very curious to see what's going to happen.
	You know what I'm thinking?
	Nothing.
	I think you're right.
	Stuff like this comes out and is absolutely, it's just a big nothing.
	Here in the United States of Gitmo Nation, everyone was all a tizzy Friday and Saturday, just the mainstream media just going crazy.
	Because we have Alec Baldwin playing Donald Trump on Saturday Night Live.
	You know, I went out of my way to watch that.
	Me too, and I was disappointed.
	And I fell asleep in the process, and I never got to sleep.
	What, during the actual opening?
	The opening?
	What?
	Was it any good?
	You know, Baldwin, if you close your eyes, he has a lot of the cadence down, although he made a big point of saying, instead of saying China, he said China, which was, I don't know, that was odd, because it's funny the way Trump says China, China.
	But Baldwin, you know, for some reason, that was Gina.
	I'm not sure why he did that.
	Artistic license.
	I have about a minute of the opening if you want.
	Oh, yeah.
	I'd be interested.
	Yeah.
	The look, though, they could have done better.
	He could have done better.
	Everything I saw, it wasn't even...
	You know, there are some guys...
	Even when Jimmy Fallon does Trump, and I think he's fine.
	I think he does.
	Yeah, he's a great Trump.
	He looks more like Trump than...
	Trump.
	Well, maybe more than Trump, too, but definitely more so than Alec Baldwin.
	Right.
	Yeah, Baldwin did a weird duck face thing.
	Anyway, here's a bit for those of you who fell asleep during the opening of Saturday Night Live.
	Well, this has been an illuminating debate, but now it's time for our...
	Alicia Machado!
	I'm sorry.
	The thing that I liked about what they did is they didn't just hammer Trump, you know.
	Hey, we're going to butt slam Trump!
	Butt slam!
	They were pretty critical of Hillary Clinton, too.
	I like that.
	I'm sorry.
	What was that?
	Who was Alicia Machado?
	Thank you for bringing that up, Lester.
	She is a strong...
	Beautiful, political.
	They actually, when she did that, I don't know if anyone noticed it, but she did the scratching the side of her nose bit even.
	I think it was like a nice little secret little signal.
	Like, oh yeah, we saw that.
	We saw that happen.
	Beautiful, political prop that I almost forgot to mention tonight, even though we already made a web video about her.
	Alicia Machado was Miss Universe in 1996.
	Where did you find this?
	And Donald Trump.
	Called her Miss Piggy.
	How do you know this?
	He's spot on with that.
	It's pretty funny.
	Mr.
	Trump, your response?
	Lester, why are we talking about this woman?
	We should be talking about the important issues like Rosie O'Donnell and how she's a fat loser.
	And everyone agrees with me.
	I just wanted to bring that up in a presidential debate.
	Right at the end, my own volition.
	Good idea.
	I did it.
	Why are you crying?
	I'm sorry, Lester.
	This is going so well.
	It's going exactly how I always dreamed.
	He has the cadence.
	He had some funny jokes in there.
	And they were critical of Hillary.
	That was refreshing, I would say.
	For the Hollywood elites.
	However, on my beat...
	On my beat, there was a lot of conversation about, well, if Donald Trump does bring up Bill's past, what are we going to do?
	And then, of course, we get this discussion coming back.
	Well, Hillary shamed the women who were accusing Bill Clinton.
	Now, there's two parts of this story, which is just a lot of the history that I think people forget.
	There were women who accused him of rape.
	And that's the thing that keeps getting, you know, pushed around and not really talked about in mainstream media.
	And all of this is pretty despicable anyway.
	It's just sad that this is what we're talking about.
	But The View, on my beat, The View, they have their own...
	I mean, just when you hear these things, and I'm very, you know, this whole, even this Miss Universe thing, you know, you can't fat shame in any way a woman.
	But if you're, I don't know, Chris Christie, then it's okay.
	Then we can make jokes.
	And so when you hear this, just replace any time they're talking about a woman with a man and you tell me if this isn't extremely sexist, the way the view thinks and the way they talk.
	What about the fact that people are attacking her for basically trashing the women that he was sleeping with?
	I think that part is valid, I think.
	She had tweeted it.
	In November, she had tweeted, every survivor of sexual assault deserves to be heard, believed, and supported.
	And then she subsequently clarified and said, well, I'd say that everyone should be believed at first until they're disbelieved based on evidence.
	But throughout history, if you looked, I mean, she called Monica Lewinsky a narcissistic Looney Tune.
	Carl Bernstein wrote a book where she had said about Jennifer Flowers that she was trailer trash.
	So there's a history here.
	There's a problem.
	But the bottom line is, and we can all sit here and say, you know, I would never trash the other woman for sleeping with my man because my relationship is with the man and not the woman.
	Guess what?
	Go Latina on us now.
	Go ahead.
	Did you hear what she just said?
	Go Latina on her?
	Damn.
	Wow.
	Yeah, and she does.
	She goes...
	She's a bunch of racist bigots on that show.
	Yeah, she goes Latina on her.
	I mean, guess what?
	Go Latina on us, man.
	I mean, good thing is, guess what?
	Come on.
	Right, guys?
	Yo, Mio!
	Mio!
	The bottom line is, you are going to be upset with the other woman as well, because she broke...
	I don't know why that's something about it.
	You know, yeah, she broke girl code.
	I mean, now...
	Girl code!
	I didn't realize it.
	Girl code.
	That's a Thursday night conference call thing, by the way, where they confirm the girl code.
	Whiskey knew he was married.
	Jennifer Flowers knew he was married.
	I'd be pissed too!
	The only thing I would defend is if they were kind of...
	This is shaming these women right here.
	They broke the girl code.
	They knew.
	They're house of cards-ing it, John.
	They were kind of house of cards-ing it, and she knew he- I'm sorry?
	Do you have to take- Oh, I get it.
	So that's why I started smoking dope again.
	So you could get through this show.
	They were kind of house of cards-ing it, and she knew he had done it, and it was calculated, and she was protecting her own agreement and business.
	If she did that, then I'm pissed.
	Isn't it different, though?
	My question is, because...
	What?
	She says, if she did that, then I'm pissed, she says.
	And I'm thinking, oh, great.
	Okay, fantastic.
	Yeah.
	It's a little more.
	Who cares what you think?
	But it's sexual.
	When they're accusing him of rape and sexual assault, I think for people that takes it to a new level.
	If it were just he was sleeping around.
	Accusing him of that.
	Right, but violating Monica Lewinsky.
	But if I were with a guy and somebody accused him of that, I don't know that I would jump back on those women.
	And here she is, supposedly a defender of women.
	And I think people are critical of, why did you have to go after those women and name-call that?
	Because they were sleeping with them.
	Sexual assault is a heavy accusation.
	He lost his law license.
	I mean, this guy is...
	I'm not holding her responsible.
	How stupid was he that he didn't think that Monica Lewinsky was going to tell that two-faced Linda Tripp about it?
	Come on.
	I mean, really.
	If you're sleeping with the President of the United States, you're not going to tell your girlfriend?
	You're definitely bragging about that.
	I just think it's ridiculous that they're blaming her for being upset at not only Bill, but these other women.
	She's a human being.
	She's a human being.
	Blame the victim.
	I don't think they're blaming her for being upset.
	I think they're blaming her for having been an attack dog against women while promoting women and saying, if you're a victim, I'm going on the attack.
	I pray to God this does not come in the next debate.
	Please.
	I really pray to God.
	People talking all over each other so you can't understand the word they're saying instead of that show, which is so poorly produced, that they let four women talk all over each other.
	I don't know if that's...
	To be honest about it, especially that first part where I'm going to go Latina, I couldn't hear...
	I understand half of what they're saying.
	They're just talking over each other.
	It's a cacophony.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, it is.
	It is.
	But just the double standard is pretty amazing.
	And remember, we're to blame, you and I are to blame, straight old white guys.
	It's our fault.
	Oh yeah, absolutely.
	Just want you to make sure you know that.
	Oh, so this came out, the Committee on Presidential Debates, which as we know is a non-profit organization, pretty much run only by Republicans and Democrats, which is why we never see any independents or other parties on stage, unless something's really kooky, like with Ross Perot.
	We used to, when the League of Women Voters ran the operation.
	They were the first ones that left, weren't they?
	They were like, screw this.
	They bailed.
	Yeah, they did.
	They did.
	That should be brought up again.
	I don't know.
	Why aren't they out there talking about it?
	Maybe they are, actually.
	They are.
	I should be looking for that.
	So there was a problem with Trump's microphone, which was the topic of a lot of scorn.
	Like, oh, if you blame it on the mic, you're just having a bad night.
	Turns out there was a problem.
	All right, this just into CNN news regarding the microphones of the presidential debate on Monday.
	You will remember that Donald Trump complained about his mic not working properly.
	CNN senior media correspondent Brian Stelter joins me now.
	What do we know, Brian?
	Hoping my mic works properly here, Poppy.
	This did not affect the television broadcast, but it did affect the thousand people who were in the room.
	That includes Trump's family members who were sitting up front.
	That's kind of a sly little dig.
	Oh, his family members couldn't hear him. - But it did affect the thousand people who were in the room.
	That includes Trump's family members who were sitting up front.
	Here's what the debate commission just announced in a very short and sweet statement.
	They say, yes, there were issues regarding Donald Trump's audio that affected the sound level in the debate hall.
	So again, not the TV broadcast, but it might've affected Trump It might have put him a little bit off his game.
	Remember, right after the debate, he said, they gave me a defective mic.
	He said, my mic was defective.
	I wonder, was that on purpose?
	Was that on purpose?
	Well, probably there's no evidence it was on purpose, there's no conspiracy theory, but it does put more pressure on the commission to make sure everything is working well at the next debate in about a week.
	You know, let's be honest, the people made fun of Trump's excuses when he talked about the mic being defective.
	A lot of people didn't believe him, because up until today, there wasn't any evidence, the commission had not confirmed any problem.
	Already, Democrats are reacting to this.
	A former DNC spokesman, Mo Ethelie, saying this did not affect the audio levels in the television audience.
	People watching at home heard every word he said, and that was actually his problem.
	But again, because the commission is acknowledging there was a problem with his mic, it does go to show how important every single detail of these debates are, right down to the wiring of the microphone on stage.
	First, a little technical discussion here I think is warranted.
	There was nothing wrong with the microphone.
	Nothing.
	It worked fine on television.
	So there, and you know, when you are doing something, if you're on a panel, and this has happened to me, I'm sure it's happened to you, John, you're on a panel, whether it's being videoed or not, if the room audio is messy, then you are thrown off.
	Oh yeah.
	Big time.
	Big league.
	Big league.
	But here's the question.
	This has got to go through the same mix or both these mics and it goes out to the audience.
	Thank you.
	So either...
	I mean, it just makes no sense.
	The feed coming in...
	I don't know.
	Do you think that they actually had...
	Well, if I were wiring it, I would have had separate controls for each mic.
	So it just seems like something like that in today's world, that really shouldn't happen.
	No.
	It really shouldn't happen.
	It's very strange.
	It's very strange that it would come out perfectly to the TV audience and then come out half-baked to the other audience when Hillary's mic came fine to the audience there in person.
	Well, hence the...
	I refute that there was something wrong with the microphone.
	That's just a placeholder.
	I'd like to know.
	I'd like to know technically what happened.
	Before you continue...
	We have to at least discuss the conspiracy theory about the podiums.
	Oh, about the length of the height of podiums?
	No, the height was predetermined.
	You mean the lecterns, not the podiums, the lecterns?
	Yeah, the lecterns.
	Well, there's a couple things I heard.
	One, and this I believe to be true, I think that Trump's lectern was a tad too low for him.
	I don't know what he was thinking, but I went back and I looked at the video, and he continues.
	He's slouching.
	There's plenty of evidence, going back to Reagan, that there's all kinds of shenanigans going on.
	It's very subtle things that take place to maybe try and throw someone off their game.
	Yeah, he was happy.
	He had the slouch to talk.
	He had the slouch, and I think that was just...
	I mean, where are the people in his campaign taking a look?
	I'm talking about the odd light that kept showing up on Hillary's podium and not on Trump's.
	Yeah, well, go ahead.
	I saw it.
	I don't think there's much to it.
	Well, the one I saw was the one...
	Everyone's been harping on this thing.
	Hillary's got a secondary light that lights up that people are accusing of being a teleprompter.
	it turns on and off by itself because it's generally speaking says well it's just a light so she could read better generally speaking on any of these lecterns you're the one who turns the light on and off right because there's usually a switch there it doesn't do it by itself and then they there's one video that i thought was the best which and i have my thoughts about it where it appears that she's fiddling with a a small mouse really to To move an arrow on this thing.
	And she keeps looking down at this thing.
	I gotta tell you, both of them had notes.
	Trump had notes all over the place, on the ground, everywhere.
	Yeah.
	Then there's also the, she had an earpiece in.
	It's all very possible.
	All very possible.
	Yeah, I think it's very possible she had the earpiece, too.
	But she's looking down more than he is, and kind of glancing at something, which could be like notes on this little screen.
	Mm-hmm.
	But then one guy took and did a very slow close-up, a deep close-up of her hand.
	And the hand is dicking around with something, and her forefinger is, like, bouncing a lot.
	And I looked at that and said, that looks more like Parkinson's than it looks like somebody fooling around with a mouse.
	Wow, what happened?
	Where's the real John C. Dvorak?
	Where did you come from?
	I'm just saying.
	Her finger was bouncing up and down.
	They claim it was so she's fingering a mouse.
	I don't know.
	I'm not convinced of that.
	It doesn't look like any kind of mouse.
	When I'm playing with a mouse, my finger's not bouncing up and down like that.
	I hold the mouse and then maybe I have a button I push.
	But I don't push, push, push, push, push.
	Right.
	I still think that needs to be resolved.
	Somebody has to explain that white light.
	Hmm.
	I don't know.
	That's all I care about.
	Right, but so what is the implication?
	The implication is that she had writers prompting her?
	Yeah.
	Yeah, that's possible.
	That would be the implication.
	You got a thing in your ear.
	Okay, no, no, no.
	You got him now.
	Just don't let him...
	Okay, now interrupt.
	Interrupt.
	Interrupt now.
	I gotta...
	It's like your bit.
	I just got a note from one of our dudes named Ben.
	The podium microphone was mixed by the facility audio engineer.
	The lapel microphone was independently mixed by the television audio engineer.
	So there were two separate audio pathways.
	Okay.
	So, okay.
	So that would make a lot of sense.
	I know that they both were laughed up, which explains the big bump in Hillary's back with the wire.
	Yeah.
	Oh, yeah.
	It's her transmitter.
	Yeah.
	And he probably had his in his vest pocket.
	Yeah.
	And they were both laughed up, and they also had that mic.
	And Trump was always getting close to mic and poking at it.
	Yeah.
	You know, the other mic.
	So I guess that could be the one that was...
	Yeah, that was just the room mic.
	But again, it doesn't explain why only one of those, because those two mics still have to go into the same box where they get mixed.
	Yeah.
	I will never know.
	We'll never know.
	We never know.
	We never care.
	It doesn't really matter.
	In fact, let me get to this, because talking about not caring, this is one of Jimmy Kimmel's, you know, he does this thing called Lie Witness News.
	I love the Lie Witness News, yeah.
	So he has, in this case, they found a bunch of Trump supporters.
	And they decided to do a...
	I love this bit.
	What did they make of this?
	The way the bit works, and any man on the street bit is always funny because you only choose the ones that are funny.
	All the ones who answered correctly or not funny, out.
	In this case, there was way too many people that were answering pretty much the same way.
	This light witness news was the premise was Donald Trump has released his tax forms.
	Right there, anyone who gets that question should say, wait a minute, you're working for Kimmel, aren't you?
	There's no way he did that.
	And the questions were based on stuff found on the tax returns.
	And what would a Trump supporter say to this abomination?
	Trump supporters, we stopped them on the street, we told them, oh, Donald Trump released his taxes today, and asked them specific questions about these totally fictional tax returns in another edition of Lie Witness News.
	So, as you know, Donald Trump releases tax returns today.
	Was it legitimate for Donald Trump to write off all those marriages over the years as, quote, entertainment?
	Wow, good question.
	It was.
	It was entertaining.
	I mean, to him, it's a tax write-off.
	Again, going back to your IRS, everything that's a loophole.
	If it's there, you're gonna utilize it.
	What do you think about how Donald Trump listed his primary occupation on his tax forms as farmer?
	Well, I mean, if he does own farms and he's invested in farms, then, I mean, that's, as an entrepreneur, you can necessarily say what you need to say, especially for tax purposes.
	Obviously, the big shock is that Donald Trump's net worth is only $42,000 rather than $10 billion.
	Does that change your view on him?
	Never.
	I know he's gonna do it, and I know he's gonna do the right thing, so.
	Was it reasonable of him to assert that he did have $10 billion, even though he only had $42,000?
	I mean, we all kind of, you know, fib a little bit, but you know what?
	The Donald Trump Foundation donated $100,000 to the legal defense fund to the dentist who killed Cecil the lion.
	Is that okay?
	I would think that that would be a wonderful thing for him to do because I imagine the dentist couldn't afford it himself.
	What did you think about how Donald Trump donated $50,000 to Jared Vogel's legal defense fund?
	Oh, my God.
	Well, people donate large sums of cash to legal funds every day, so if it's to help somebody, that's what it's for.
	Even disgraced subway spokesman Jared Fogle deserves his day in court?
	Everybody deserves their day in court.
	Were you surprised to see that Donald Trump wrote off nearly $100,000 for breast pumps for various members of his family?
	No.
	No, I'm not surprised.
	Why not?
	I don't know.
	He wants everybody to be big and beautiful beside him.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	You're under the impression that there are breast pumps to increase their bust size.
	Yes.
	Gold cleaning a toilet is a, quote, business expense.
	If I was showing off for my friends or I needed it and I had the funds to do it, then yes, I would probably do it.
	Are you surprised to see that Donald Trump spent $38,000 on that Siberian tiger for Vladimir Putin's birthday?
	Yeah, I'm not surprised.
	I would think he would want to gain friends in the business world.
	What did you think about how Donald Trump is technically leasing his wife Melania to the campaign?
	Is it okay that he found that loophole?
	Every person's leaseable.
	Well, since we know how the bit works, I'm going to give you a borderline for that one.
	Borderline!
	But that shows you that a lot of people don't care.
	At all!
	At all, at all, at all!
	They make up their minds about something and they're going to be all in.
	Either one of these two candidates, they could bring out notes of corruption.
	It has to be done in a huge way.
	That's why I think it'll be interesting to see what happens with the Assange anti-Hillary release, which is coming this month.
	Yeah.
	Oh, yeah.
	But it'll be the same thing.
	It'll be almost the exact same.
	Well, you know, this is water under the bridge.
	Well, I don't believe it.
	No, she's a good person.
	And Trump sucks.
	You know, that kind of thing.
	I don't think ever before we've seen mainstream media, and with that also I include print, all unanimously go against a candidate.
	We had USA Today's editorial board.
	They claim first time in their 36-year history they have ever even...
	I guess had an opinion.
	Trump, unfit for the presidency.
	The Economist, have you seen The New Economist?
	Well, The Economist has been doing this actually for a while.
	Ever since the new editor.
	Yeah, the new editor, the new woman editor, I might add, just to show her natural slant toward Hillary.
	She has been, I think she's ruined the magazine, though, because she's turned it into a link-bait kind of an operation.
	Yeah, yeah.
	I agree.
	But what does she say?
	Or what did they say?
	Why they're wrong is the title.
	And that is the cover story.
	Who's wrong?
	Why they are wrong about Hillary.
	That's the whole idea.
	Why they're wrong.
	Actually, it flows into globalization's critics say it benefits only the elite.
	In fact, a less open world would hurt the poor most of all.
	And they make a case for globalism that is pro-Hillary.
	Yes, Hillary is a globalist.
	We might as well get that out of the way.
	She wants open borders because the best borders are no borders and then everyone can just mix it up and they can be all ruled by a central location, the new world order.
	And that's what The Economist has become.
	It's always been somewhat, a little bit globalist.
	But it's like really globalist now with this new woman.
	She's all in on the new world order.
	We should lose our sovereignty.
	It doesn't mean anything.
	It's not important anymore.
	Hey, it's the 21st century.
	What are we doing with these old ideas?
	Nationalism is bad.
	All that stuff is all in there.
	Yeah.
	And talking about...
	Well, one other, for the first time, this was...
	It's kind of meaningless, but still.
	The entire cast of Star Trek, all actors, current and previous, wrote an open letter.
	Yeah, I'd like to see the open letter from the crews.
	From the crews?
	The gaffers, the cameraman, and all that kind of thing.
	The people who actually work there and get paid a salary.
	I want to see what they'd say about all this.
	Are they signing it too?
	I don't believe so.
	No, I don't think they signed this one.
	So I'm watching...
	One of these shows.
	I'm watching Kathy Lee or whatever that girl is.
	Kelly Ripka?
	Kelly Ripka.
	I love Kelly.
	Kelly.
	Kelly and yeah, Kelly.
	Ripka?
	Isn't Kelly Ripka?
	Kelly.
	Yes, Kelly Ripka, I guess.
	Yeah, she's like three feet tall.
	She always has people on.
	She's got guest hosts now.
	The show's named after her.
	It used to be her and somebody, but now.
	Yeah, it was the football player who went on to do the $64 billion pyramid and Good Morning America.
	Right.
	Yeah, what's his name?
	She brought this person.
	I'm talking about globalists and elites.
	There's this woman, her last name is Chopra.
	Her first name started, I can't pronounce it, but she's on Quantico.
	She's an actress, but she's Indian.
	She's an Indian actress, has lived in this country, the United States.
	She moved in from India when she was 13.
	Her mom let her come to this country.
	Beautiful woman with a really kind of a divisive, upper-class, elite, British, quasi-British accent, which I don't understand why she couldn't get that removed and sound more like an American, but she likes this voice.
	And so she was on, and we're talking about elites here, and if you just listen to this, first of all, she's going on and on about that event that you discussed on either the last show or the show before, that global citizen thing.
	Ah, the concert, the global citizen project, yeah.
	Yeah, now if you want to hear an elite, and where they're coming from, and how casual it is, and Kelly would be in that same category of a...
	The elite that thinks they get, you know, they can get more than you.
	Play this clip.
	This is Chopra Elite.
	Great to see.
	You know, Global Citizen is such an amazing initiative anyway.
	It's like, we all sit down and we're always complaining about how do we change, the government's not changing this for us, or people are not changing this for us.
	This initiative says that you do something about it, empowers you, you know.
	You have to get on the website, you do things.
	And there was about 60,000 to 70,000 people there who had earned their tickets.
	It was so awesome to see.
	Plus, I had the best seats in the house because I was sitting on the wings and watching Metallica sing in front of me.
	Oh, no kidding.
	You could sit right there?
	I could.
	Oh, yes.
	One of the benefits of being a host.
	And I was like, yeah.
	And they were performing right in front of me.
	It was great.
	That's incredible.
	Bullshit.
	Yeah, please.
	Damn, you're so right.
	You unfortunately stepped on her key line, which was, You sat right there in front and her response was, well, I could.
	One of the benefits of being a host.
	And I was like, yeah, and they were performing right in front of me.
	That's incredible.
	Back further, I'm sorry.
	Yeah, couldn't hear you.
	Here we go.
	In the house, because I was sitting on the wings and watching Metallica sing like in front of me.
	Oh, no kidding.
	You could sit right there?
	I could.
	Yeah.
	Oh, God.
	You know, to wax poetic over an $8 million concert, which is the only thing that the Global Citizens Project does, is put this concert on.
	They paid everybody.
	Trust me, Metallica doesn't show up for globalism, although they're all in, because, wow, scruples?
	No.
	Now, we know that Rihanna is, of course, she is the mistress of the Illuminati, so that's normal that she's there.
	And she was just, she got some position within, I read that the other day.
	After her performance, she's now some ambassador to the, yeah, you get more money.
	You get more money, you get to travel, you get to hang out.
	It's a fun thing.
	Free travel, you get to go here and there.
	So this fabulous, fabulous show, which she got to see the side stage, yes, she could, not the other at least, no.
	I just want to remind you what this was about.
	They were not raising money.
	They did have a tote board.
	Neil Patrick Harris was there.
	This is the clip from when we discussed this.
	Nice.
	A hundred million dollar commitment for toilets.
	Aw, shit.
	So let's check out the big board and see the world of difference you all are making.
	Yes!
	The number of lives set to be affected is 132,976,372.
	Well played, everyone.
	Let's keep it up.
	Yeah.
	Don't forget the two.
	Lives affected.
	Hey, you could make it three because my life was affected.
	I can't sleep after seeing that bull crap.
	Jeez.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	That's the New York bankers, man.
	That's the banking community.
	Financial world.
	That's what they do.
	It's like Formula One.
	You know, Formula One.
	What's great about Formula One?
	Well, you get, you know, you buy a sponsorship and you take your clients all over the world to the races.
	Put some, you know, some hookers on them and sign the deal.
	Yeah.
	And seriously, that is what it's about.
	Same for, you know, PGA, all of that stuff.
	That's what it really runs on.
	Well, we're not getting invited, that's for sure.
	Actually, actually.
	You got invited?
	Yes.
	You're going to go to Paris or Monaco for the Monaco race?
	Dude, Austin, Texas hosts the Formula One every year.
	Yeah, it's not the same as being hauled off to Monaco.
	No, but we will, if everything goes according to plan, we'll have paddock passes, which is kind of cool.
	Yeah.
	It has to be personally approved by Ecclestone himself.
	Huh.
	Yeah, I know.
	Well, you got a big name.
	He says, I remember that.
	Yeah, I don't think so.
	Okay, I have a few more things that I wanted to bring up when we're talking about American politics.
	Oh, this was...
	This was interesting on Morning Joe, and I still wonder, how can they keep those guys on MSNBC? They really go against the narrative and the messaging all the time.
	Seriously, all the time.
	So there was a cover article in Esquire magazine, and the editor of Esquire...
	He was on the Morning Joe with Mika and what's his name?
	Yeah.
	Chuck Charles.
	What's his name?
	Scarborough.
	Yeah.
	Scar.
	Scarborough.
	And they sent a journalist, which they even say is a liberal journalist, to go talk to people along the border.
	And I believe this is the Texas-Mexico border.
	Hilarity ensued.
	This is pretty shocking stuff.
	So you send a liberal journalist down there.
	He comes back saying, Trump is right.
	That's right.
	So we said, you've got to go down there with no preconceived notions, just an empty notebook, go to my former home state, and walk the border, drive the border 800 miles and talk to whoever you see and let them tell us what they think about what's really going on and whether we need a wall, in fact, instead of hearing it from the debate stage, let's hear it from the people who are doing it.
	And the people say, build the wall.
	They said build the wall.
	They said two things.
	Hispanic, Anglo, Democrat, Republican, uncommitted, clueless, whatever.
	They said we want a wall, and yet we wanted to be married with some compassion toward the people that we're trying to keep from jumping over the wall.
	Here's another surprising thing from the article is that he said that Hispanics were less sympathetic towards illegal immigrants than whites.
	So I think that there's a lot of interesting things there, but one thing I think is that most of those Hispanics are first generation and they see it as unfair that they came over here the legal way, became citizens, and now they're having to compete for jobs with those who are coming across the border on a daily basis, right?
	So I think they feel, as one guy says it, let them get in line, right?
	Yeah.
	I think the Anglos have...
	For the most part, probably grown up in the tradition of the West, which is a place of welcoming immigrants through its history.
	And their attitude is more that that should be an honored thing.
	Today, I think they also think, oddly, that, you know, the more...
	Well, if the laws are enforced, compassion will prevail.
	Yes.
	I found that to be very interesting.
	And it's kind of what my informal testing already showed here in Texas.
	Yeah, a lot of people...
	Trump is one of them that believes that the established Hispanics in the United States...
	That are legal will vote for him.
	I think they'll be badgered into not voting for him.
	But once you're in the little booth there, you can do whatever you want.
	And I think a lot of people are don't want to would never admit to voting for Trump, which is the big variable that people are Democrats in particular, quite fearful of this kind of backlit is kind of underlying.
	Well, I'm not going to admit it, but I'm going to vote for this guy because I don't like the way things are going.
	Right.
	It's possible.
	Well, everything points toward that, that nothing makes any difference except the things that people really care about.
	We'll see.
	We'll see.
	But I just thought it was an interesting data point for us.
	Did you see the, and I think this was a Trump campaign thing, not an official commercial they put out, but something they put out on Instagram about the low T. Did you see this?
	No.
	The doctor in Florida who made the news.
	This was on NBC, actually.
	Most are not aware of the negative effects low T can have on your mental state.
	For instance, your ability to focus and think clearly.
	Dr.
	Daryl Morris of Morris Medical and Weight Loss Center in Fort Myers issuing a warning to all men regarding their testosterone levels.
	And if you're thinking about voting for Hillary Clinton, he has a message specifically for you.
	For any guys out there that are thinking of voting for Hillary, I want to offer you a free testosterone test.
	And let's see if we can help.
	I honestly feel like he's a pinhead for saying that.
	I think it's pretty hilarious.
	He says he quote leans right and just wanted to make a humorous political statement while promoting his practice.
	At a Hillary Clinton office opening in Dunbar tonight, some people were talking about that radio commercial.
	The person who really needs some testosterone, probably after his Monday night performance, would be Donald Trump.
	Just because a man's voting for a woman, there shouldn't be anything wrong with it.
	It's sexist.
	Morris tells me he doesn't want to upset anyone.
	He says he's already received calls from both Republicans and Democrats saying it's funny.
	You shouldn't mix business and politics.
	Dad.
	I don't know.
	I thought it was funny.
	It was in the report.
	I'm like, I'll just leave that in.
	Yeah, low T. Low T. That's testosterone, for those of you.
	The low T thing has been going around.
	Right.
	It's a...
	You can get this stuff called, I need some of it right now because I can't remember the name of it.
	Yeah, we talked about that.
	Androgel.
	And that's it, androgel.
	Yeah, androgel and you spray it on yourself and the next thing you know you're a woman.
	You're all pumped.
	No, that's the other stuff.
	I'm sorry.
	You're all jacked up.
	You're all jacked up.
	Yeah, yay for testosterone.
	Especially the cream and gel.
	Yeah, oh, so Hillary was in, where was she?
	I think she was in Florida at a rally, and she had another, not really a coughing issue, but I think I discovered a little thing here.
	That it's either the swallowing or the breathing or something bad.
	It starts, and then she immediately pops one of those green lozenges.
	But what I've noticed, and you'll hear it in this clip, she's not really a coughing fit, but she goes into that, I can't talk mode.
	What I've noticed is that, and this may be where this is coming from, to get through it, to power through it, you know, she likes powering through.
	She actually forces her voice, forces her entire projection to kind of break through some wall of whatever is going on inside.
	And that's how she gets...
	The wall of phlegm!
	The wall of phlegm, exactly.
	I'm trying to end the campaign focusing on issues that are really close to my heart.
	And this is one of them.
	Thank you!
	Now listen how she powers through it.
	You know, for me, service is really all about fulfilling the instruction of my Methodist faith.
	And you can see part of the creed I like to follow behind me.
	Do all the good you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as ever you can!
	Did you hear it though?
	Did you hear how she does that?
	Yeah, she got the phlegm out.
	And she powers through it.
	And it was actually beautiful to watch because you can hear her getting there like, oh, I can do it.
	And let me tell you, we have this.
	I have times where my voice kind of gives out and you power through it.
	You know, you just kind of go through that.
	Your voice goes high.
	Yeah, and I don't know why it does that either.
	It's very odd.
	It's pretty funny.
	It's only funny because it's actually not completely out of context.
	Yeah.
	So it's not so noticeable as you think.
	But it is when you point it out to yourself.
	Because you always make mention of it when you do it.
	Why did my voice go high?
	I have no idea.
	Yes, exactly.
	So Washington Free Beacon put together a very interesting...
	This is kind of how I came full circle on this.
	They did a montage of the Hillary...
	Why am I not 50 points behind?
	Which is one of those yelling episodes...
	Which she could be doing for a number of reasons.
	Actually, what I think about this clip is it's pretty bad.
	It's pretty misogynistic.
	Because it kind of implies crazy-ass women talk like this.
	And they mixed it with Kathy Bates from...
	What was the movie?
	I'm Your Biggest Fan.
	What was that movie?
	Oh, right.
	What is the name of that thing with...
	Kathy Bates.
	It's actually...
	Stephen King wrote that story.
	Yes, it's Stephen King, yeah.
	Misery.
	Misery, misery.
	Misery.
	So they mixed up, did this little mix of those two, and...
	Wow.
	What do you think I say when I go to the feed store in town?
	Oh, now, Wally, give me a bag of that effing pig feed and 10 pounds of that bitchly cow corn.
	Now, having said all this, why aren't I 50 points ahead, you might ask?
	This isn't what happened last week.
	Have you all got amnesia?
	The choice for working families has never been clearer.
	I stood right up and started shouting, I need your help to get Donald Trump's record out to everybody.
	They just cheated us!
	This isn't fair!
	Nobody should be fooled.
	He didn't get out of the cock-a-doodie car!
	Pretty down close.
	That was good.
	Yeah.
	I'll give you a borderline for that.
	I'll take the borderline from you.
	You would have gotten Clip of the Day if it had been longer.
	Really?
	I thought she was getting there.
	It just kind of ended.
	I was hoping for more.
	These medleys come and go.
	The one that's kind of baffling me that happened recently is that Eggo's waffles were recalled.
	Oh, damn.
	I missed this.
	The big Eggo recall.
	The big Eggo recall.
	I don't know who exactly compiled this first.
	Eggo is an American breakfast food which consists of pretty much no food.
	It's a waffle.
	It looks like a small square waffle that you toast in the toaster.
	It's a formerly soggy piece of cardboard that you put in the toaster.
	And they have a slogan, Lego my Eggo, because when these things pop up, the whole family just is fighting for this piece of formerly wet cardboard.
	And so they recalled a bunch of them because they were contaminated with plastic or rat poop.
	I don't know what would help.
	Any other fine product.
	But...
	Here is a medley of Lego My Ego in regards to this story that I don't know how this became such a popular thing to say from every single news source.
	And it's not just one or two.
	So somebody has to be behind this.
	And I think it's the Ego company themselves trying to get people at least think positively.
	Let go of your ego.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Never underestimate the creativity of the American news media.
	They're great.
	I said the same thing when...
	They all think for themselves.
	Yeah, when the iPhone came out, it was the same thing.
	Hit the road, Jack!
	Apple says, hit the road, Jack!
	Hit the road, Jack!
	When they refused to...
	Right, to put that there's no Jack in.
	There's no Jack there.
	There's no Jack there, there.
	Let me see.
	This is what we're up against.
	Yeah, I know.
	It's pretty sad.
	Okay, two more things here.
	I have...
	Oh yes, New York Times, speaking of mainstream media, New York Times is really going all out.
	I don't know, what are they afraid of?
	Well, they have stated publicly they're afraid of Donald Trump becoming a president, the president.
	They're very afraid of that.
	So they are doing everything they can to...
	Show you that the guy is dangerous, no good, he's horrible.
	And the latest thing they did is they published his, I don't know how they got it, but they published his tax return, his tax filing for 1995, and it shows he took a huge loss and then, you know, oh my God.
	A billion.
	Almost a billion dollars.
	And they even made a little video about it on the New York Times website.
	Mrs.
	Clinton was the subject.
	Oops, this one.
	Donald Trump has declined to release any of his tax records.
	Making him the first presidential candidate since 1972 to do so.
	I love the music.
	The New York Times recently obtained documents that provide new insight into the personal finances of the Republican nominee for president.
	The documents show that he declared a $916 million loss on his 1995 income tax returns.
	The loss was derived from the financial wreckage he left behind in the early 1990s through mismanagement of his casinos, airline business, and ill-time purchase of the Plaza Hotel in Manhattan.
	The loss is so substantial that it could have allowed him to legally avoid paying federal income tax for up to 18 years, three years back and 15 forward.
	This is called a net operating loss, a lucrative tax deduction that occurs when business expenses exceed gross income.
	And those deductions can be applied for almost two decades.
	Based solely on the 1995 tax returns, Trump theoretically could have avoided paying taxes until 2010.
	I love the music.
	It just really adds.
	What is the point of music?
	This is like a piece of propaganda.
	You think?
	And by the way, people do that all the time.
	We did that with the deli we had in Port Angeles.
	We took a beating, but you can't just write it off.
	You have to write it off over time.
	That's kind of the interesting thing about it.
	Of course, just the way this is set up, and I understand why people who do not like Trump, they're like, this guy's an a-hole.
	What a horrible man.
	He's stealing from our schools and from our roads.
	He didn't pay any taxes.
	Not to mention, I don't know, Companies we love, like Uber.
	Hey, man, Uber is just taking money, making no profit, no taxes whatsoever, just taking losses.
	Warren Buffett pays less taxes than his secretary.
	That was the meme.
	All this would be solved by a wealth tax, but we'll talk about that some other time.
	I heard a great, great, well, we'll call it a conspiracy theory, but it's actually from one...
	You probably know him.
	Do you know Andy Kaufman?
	Did you ever meet him?
	Andy Kaufman, the comic?
	The comic, yeah, the comedian.
	I never met him, no.
	I don't know if Mimi has.
	She may have.
	So, a long-time friend of Andy Kaufman.
	His name is...
	What is his name?
	Bob Zmuda.
	He has come out and he said...
	Now, Andy Kaufman was a totally insane comic.
	He was on Saturday Night Live.
	He did crazy stuff.
	He would do a stand-up show at Carnegie Hall.
	And then after the show, he'd take everyone out for cookies and milk.
	The whole theater, all of Carnegie Hall, when he bought them all cookies and milk.
	In the middle of the night in Manhattan.
	He did crazy stuff.
	And he died in...
	What was it?
	What was that?
	Mid-80s, I think?
	87?
	Yeah, 87, 86, 87.
	And according to Zamuda...
	And he's documented this and he wrote it down.
	He's got all kinds of proof.
	He says Kaufman faked his death, which has been something that people have thought about for a long, long time.
	But here's the cool part.
	Zamuda says he thinks that he's come back as Donald Trump and we just don't know it.
	And he's going to reveal that soon.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	One of the better ones.
	That was in the New York Post.
	Those guys will do anything.
	I guess.
	That's really fantastic.
	Now, the final clip I have is from Judicial Watch.
	Judicial Watch are the ones actually responsible for the most recent Friday release of emails.
	Actually, two Fridays in a row.
	An extra 3,000.
	They've been going after Hillary Clinton for a long time.
	I don't even know who's behind these guys, but I'm sure it's Republicans.
	And they are really...
	I'm guessing more libertarians because I'm not sure that half the Republicans are that all in on Trump to the point where the judicial watch people are.
	They're very aggressive.
	Yeah, I don't think they're all in on Trump.
	I agree.
	I don't think they are at all.
	So they released a video of a couple of the Judicial Watch directors.
	Actually, this is the Judicial Watch director of investigations about the investigation performed by the FBI. And as we know, Director Comey came out and said, Secretary Clinton, there's nothing here that we should go and prosecute.
	Yes, very careless, but not extreme carelessness.
	Yeah.
	I think you and I both felt that you probably did the right thing.
	If you can, you want to avoid this kind of problem in a general election.
	And now that I hear this next bit, I'm thinking Comey also just didn't want to wake up dead one day with two to the head and gun in the left hand.
	Mrs.
	Clinton was the subject of a national security crime investigation.
	This wasn't a security review.
	It wasn't an argument over classification levels.
	This was a violation of Title 18 of the US Code, Section 793F, mishandling national defense information.
	And contrary to what the American public has been told repeatedly, intent is not an element of the crime.
	There's no requirement to prove any sort of intent at all.
	And so when Mr.
	Comey talks about intent or he wasn't able to prove it or there was no sort of specification that showed an intent, it's a red herring.
	It's a false argument.
	It isn't a requirement of the crime.
	So we know from the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community that 22 top-secret SCI, which is Sensitive Compartment of Information, it's a special category of intelligence collection, 22 top-secret SCI messages or emails who went across Mrs.
	Clinton's unsecured server.
	It's a fact.
	It's a finding of the inspector general.
	That's the root of the referral to the Department of Justice that caused them to begin this inquiry.
	The fact that that has occurred puts the United States at grave risk.
	That's the definition, really, for compromising top-secret material.
	That is the issue that is really the focal point of what the FBI should have been looking at.
	And it's a yes or no question.
	It's not, what did you intend?
	It's not, how did you feel about it?
	It's not, what were you really trying to accomplish?
	It's a yes or no question.
	Did this event occur?
	Yes or no?
	And if it did occur, who is responsible for it?
	What is the proximate cause of this event occurring?
	And if you walk it back to find the person who made it happen, that's who's prosecuted.
	This whole intent thing is nonsense.
	Mr.
	Comey is lying to the American public when he goes down that path.
	There you go.
	Yep.
	It's rigged.
	Yes, it is.
	It's completely rigged.
	Absolutely.
	Why do they want to rig it for a globalist like Hillary Clinton?
	I mean, why did she even get nominated?
	Well, she's the perfect globalist leader.
	Well, she's a perfect globalist leader, but she's got so many flaws that you could find there must be some other good globalist in the entire Democrat Party, which tends to be...
	Globalist as a party.
	I mean, that's what you have with this woman, Chopra, who came on and talked about this global citizen.
	I mean, the word global comes in a lot.
	So, I don't know.
	A lot of it doesn't quite make sense.
	She is the perfect global citizen.
	Hillary Clinton is outstanding.
	So, her latest thing is to go after Trump on some Cuban thing, which I think is pretty lame.
	This was launched by...
	I saw this launch.
	It was the day after the debate, and Rachel Maddow launched it.
	It was a Newsweek article, and, you know, oh, we got the exclusive, and that's kind of how it was launched.
	And I was recording, and I'm like, oh, this would be great.
	It was kind of like, no.
	It was dumb.
	Well, here's one of the reports.
	I'm looking for it.
	Which one is this?
	Oh, Trump and Cuba.
	In other campaign news, Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton said Thursday Donald Trump appeared to violate U.S. law by attempting to do business in Cuba.
	Clinton was referring to an investigation by Newsweek that revealed a Trump company violated the U.S. embargo against Cuba in 1998, spending at least $68,000 during a secret business trip to Havana.
	The investigation also reveals that Trump had knowledge of top executives working to cover up the illegal expenditures.
	He then went on to write an op-ed piece that attacked Fidel Castro.
	We'll have more on Donald Trump and the Cuban embargo later in the broadcast.
	You know, if we were advising...
	Hold on a second.
	She said bodcast.
	I heard barcast.
	Oh, bar...
	It could be barcast.
	Which...
	Fidel Castro.
	We'll have more on Donald Trump and the Cuban embargo later in the broadcast.
	In the broadcast.
	I'm in the...
	Judy!
	I'm in the...
	In the broadcast.
	If we were to advise both of these candidates, I mean, clearly none of this stuff makes any difference to the people who are already voting for each candidate.
	I don't think it makes it...
	You've proven that with lie-witness news.
	Right, with lie-witness news.
	So you're not changing anything that way.
	I mean, we're just hammering the American public into submission.
	I mean, to me, it seems at this point, if either candidate, during maybe the next debate, every single attack would just be, whatever, fine, I'm a douchebag.
	Here's what I'm going to do X, Y, and Z. And Hillary can do this.
	And Donald Trump can do this.
	I think whoever would just take that high road, boom, right away, I think you'd shut the other person down very quickly.
	Yeah, I can't disagree with that.
	I think Trump tried to do that a couple of times.
	He was being caught off guard by these trigger words.
	He's an idiot.
	I mean, seriously.
	Apparently, he is an idiot, in hindsight, listening to that debate.
	Yeah.
	Of course, you know what bugs me the most is his constant harping on how he's going to wipe the floor with Hillary in a debate.
	Yeah, and it just blew.
	That was just like, what?
	Where's the wiping the floor here?
	Yeah.
	We're talking about the FBI. I've got one more here.
	This was a very interesting clip.
	This is Herridge.
	Ah, the pixie girl.
	The pixie girl, CIA pixie girl, who was talking about the FBI in this clip.
	And she had the weirdest look on her face after this was over, after she gave her little spiel.
	As if she, you know, she knows that this actually matches very well the CIA versus the FBI in our analysis or meta-analysis.
	But she had this look on her face like she didn't like to do...
	It was the most sad look I've ever seen this woman display.
	At the end of her report, they rolled off of her.
	They faded away from her.
	But the look on her face was like she had killed her firstborn or something.
	It was very strange.
	Sort of strongly worded statement he made in response to Chairman Trey Gowdy.
	Did it seem to you that he'd won the skeptics over or less so?
	I felt throughout that hearing the more Director Comey talks about the investigation and the justification for his decision not to recommend criminal charges, the less he convinces these Republicans and other critics.
	All of these new details about the immunity agreements that apparently two people who got them lied to the FBI and kept those agreements, that just never happens.
	Oh, you mean people, usually you lose your immunity and immunity is conditioned on true testimony, right?
	That's correct.
	They like it.
	For example, Mills said to the FBI she only learned about the server after they left the State Department in 2013.
	But an email was introduced at the hearing today that showed she was emailing Bill Clinton's aide, Justin Cooper, asking about whether the server was running three years earlier.
	Oh my goodness.
	Catherine, thank you very much.
	First of all, we believe that she is read in and she is a very good foot soldier for CIA. Why do you think she had that poopy look on her face after that?
	I have no idea.
	I watched it, and it didn't make sense.
	Maybe it was because she didn't feel like throwing Comey under the bus, or maybe she knew him, or there was some personal thing going on, or she was actually saddened by the fact that the FBI has gone so far off the rails that they would...
	She was very concerned about this.
	There was two people, and this was taking on the second round of hearings.
	Yeah, Cheryl Mills.
	Cheryl Mills and some other guy had gotten...
	Yeah, that was Cooper.
	He got the immunity.
	Cooper.
	They got immunity for no apparent reason.
	And Comey was grilled on this.
	Why did you give him immunity for?
	What were you expecting to get out of that?
	He couldn't answer.
	Well, I have a clip where he does answer.
	Okay.
	Here he is.
	Director FBI Comey.
	Who authorized granting Cheryl Mills immunity?
	Now, Cheryl Mills has always been a close confidant staff member of Secretary Clinton as well as her personal lawyer.
	I'm sorry?
	Who authorized granting Cheryl Mills immunity?
	It's a decision made by the Department of Justice.
	I don't know at what level inside.
	In our investigations, any kind of immunity comes from the prosecutors, not the investigators.
	Okay.
	Did she request immunity?
	I don't know for sure what the negotiations involved.
	I believe her lawyer asked for active production immunity with respect to the production of her laptop.
	That's my understanding.
	But again, the FBI wasn't part of those conversations.
	So there's Comey saying, hey, ma'am, that's not me.
	That's the woman who visited her husband on the airplane.
	That's who gave the immunity.
	And it turns out it wasn't even immunity for her.
	Director Comey, why was Cheryl Mills granted immunity in the classified data investigation for Secretary Clinton?
	The Department of Justice wrote a letter to Cheryl Mills' lawyer that gave her what's called active production immunity for the production of her laptop.
	So it's not personal immunity for her.
	It was the immunity was we will not use, we the Department of Justice, directly against you anything we recover on this laptop.
	Fairly common tool in criminal investigations, but that's what it was.
	And the judgment was...
	The FBI's judgment was, we need to get to that laptop.
	We need to see what it is.
	This investigation has been going on for a year.
	And this was, in the negotiation, a tool that her lawyer asked for that the Department of Justice granted so we could get the laptop.
	Thanks.
	Was she then Secretary Clinton's lawyer?
	In Secretary Clinton's interview with you, and is that irregular?
	Our understanding was she was acting as a member of her legal team.
	Not irregular, not the FBI's job to decide who can be in a voluntary interview.
	There are ethical canons that govern lawyers, but we don't police that.
	If it was a judicial proceeding, the judge might police who could be there representing an individual, but that's not something that we could do anything about in a voluntary interview.
	I find that to be interesting from a legal perspective.
	I found the whole thing to be interesting and the laptop thing was also interesting because they said that they started this investigation a year before and say you had a laptop, you, that had been used in some compromised way with the servers, the emails, the emails you stored on it and all the rest of it.
	You have a year to clean this thing up.
	Yeah.
	Why would you want to get immunity unless you wanted it for some other reason?
	Because there's not going to...
	In fact, they said this in the hearings.
	There was nothing on the laptop worth of crap.
	There wasn't anything there.
	There's no there there.
	There's no there there.
	So it seems as though you would have...
	I mean, if it was me, I would have pulled a hard disk out of the laptop, put a new operating system on it, and then started doing business as usual.
	That's called obstruction of justice, John.
	That's exactly what Hillary's in trouble for.
	She's not in trouble.
	Oh, okay.
	Yeah, you're right.
	What am I saying?
	What are you kidding me?
	And that's what she...
	Okay, well, she did that then.
	Say you pulled the disk out.
	It was...
	You make the...
	You know, it failed.
	It failed.
	Right.
	How's this obstruction of justice?
	My hard disk died.
	What am I supposed to do about it?
	So I put a new one in and put a new operating system on and kept doing business on the laptop.
	Congratulations.
	You now work for the IRS. That's exactly their excuse.
	That was shit.
	I threw the drive out.
	I don't know about any emails that were on it.
	Come on.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	There you go.
	This is a new, I mean, the cloud is going to mitigate a lot of this.
	And I think that's going to make a huge difference in the future because people don't know what the hell they're doing.
	And I'll tell you that CIA just completed their assessment and they are going all cloud.
	CIA is going all cloud.
	Isn't that crazy?
	It's totally crazy.
	I know.
	Why don't you just send this stuff directly to the Russians?
	Oh, I'm with the Chinas.
	China.
	China.
	The Chinese.
	Send it directly to the Chinese.
	Why even bother with the cloud?
	Just send it straight to China.
	And with that...
	Are these guys crazy?
	Yes.
	Yes, they are.
	With that, I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you, John C. Where the C stands for Constructing the Wall of Phlegm.
	Dvorak.
	Well, in the morning to you, Mr.
	Adam Curry.
	Also in the morning to all the ships and sea boots on the ground, feet in the air, subs in the water, and all the dames and all the knights out there.
	In the morning, everybody in the chat room, noagendastream.com.
	Good to have you all on board.
	Good numbers today.
	We got like, I don't know, well over a thousand people.
	We got two people in the chat room.
	I'm very happy.
	In the morning to...
	What?
	Well, you got people in the chat room.
	We don't have people on this list of donors.
	Oh, well, I need to finish by saying in the morning to CZ on 137.
	Thank him for his artwork for episode 864.
	That was the Putin popularity poll.
	And it was just a beautiful piece.
	You know, we had the no agenda code book within the morning on the side.
	And we had a little 33 bookmark.
	Beautiful piece.
	Very nice.
	Yeah, I get the feeling, I said this as we picked this piece, that the show before, Cesium did a bunch of really good pieces that didn't get picked.
	Right.
	And he was like, ah, screw that.
	And so he decided to swing for the fences.
	He said, you guys don't like this?
	I'm going to stop.
	Yeah, and he went all out.
	And so he put a beauty together, and it was just dynamite.
	I mean, it was just a beautiful piece.
	And I think it's like an evergreen, too.
	We can use that for all kinds of things.
	Yes.
	So we appreciate the work that all of our artists do and of course you can always look at that or you can contribute at noagendaartgenerator.com Thank you for all your submissions.
	So we have two people.
	Neither one of them came in at the executive producer level.
	We back down to the doldrums here.
	So we'll upgrade James Richard in Watertown, Massachusetts, who contributed $271.27.
	He will be the executive producer for show 850.
	That's how it works, yeah.
	865.
	865.
	You know, at the top of the spreadsheet, I don't know what happened.
	Anyway, he writes, I would like to officially coin this donation as the gangbang.
	Two boobs, 80.808 times two, 160, which equals $160.16, which we should put together as an actual donation.
	Plus a bunch of dicks.
	The 111s.
	Nice.
	111.11 equals 27127.
	It also completes my knighthood.
	See the counting below.
	I like to be knighted as vaping dude named Ben of Massachusetts Nuts.
	Very nice.
	You guys are doing a great job of keeping me sane in this craziest election cycle of my lifetime.
	My wife who is new to the country immigrated illegally in 2013.
	Hold on one second.
	Bless you.
	I don't know.
	It's dust.
	Immigrated illegally.
	You can put that on the beginning of the show.
	My wife, who is new to the country, is experiencing for the first time and constantly asks about the...
	Is this normal?
	Welcome to America.
	I assure her it's not.
	It may be the new normal, though.
	You don't know.
	Yes, we love the new normal.
	I still can't believe we have the kingpin of an organized crime ring running for president, and she has never been in the construction industry, just the rubbleizing industry.
	My smoking hot wife and I are leaving for Johannesburg tonight so we could use some travel karma, and he needs the following clips.
	All right.
	Zika Song, can I taste your juice and stay out of my vagina?
	All righty then.
	It's the short version.
	Zika, zika, zika, zika, zika.
	Yeah.
	Where's the money?
	1.9 billion dollars.
	Zika, zika, zika, zika, zika.
	Yeah.
	Where's the money?
	Small heads are coming.
	You're going to do it.
	You watch.
	Look at that juice.
	The juice that comes out.
	My hand is dripping wet here because I have nothing but juice.
	Get out of my vagina!
	You've got karma.
	I guess that was a different one.
	Where'd you get that juice one?
	I don't even remember it.
	Well, it said, look at that juice new, and I thought, oh, okay, well, maybe that's the one I want to play.
	Look at that juice.
	Oh, here it is.
	This is the one you want.
	It's, can you see that juice?
	That's what it is.
	Oh, my gosh!
	Can you see that juice?
	You know, I have been trying to catch her again, because it's when she works with Wolfgang Puck.
	That's the best.
	That she has all these crazy things, she says, and I just have not been able to collect any more of it.
	It's very hard to catch.
	Anyway, following James, we have Jacob Turley, parts unknown.
	He's got an email that he sent in, which I'll read.
	And he came in with, let's say, 21833, and he's the associate executive producer for this show.
	Thank you for the twice-weekly dose of sanity.
	The mental clarity provided is second to none.
	I humbly request the dedouching, as this is my first donation, and I have been listening for at least a year.
	You've been dedouched.
	I would like to call out Bagman as a douchebag.
	Douchebag!
	He's the one who hit me in the mouth and to my knowledge has yet to donate to the show.
	Jingles.
	He would like to get a magical shape shifting Jew.
	Oh bummers.
	The oh bummers A team.
	Oh yeah.
	And a seed man clip.
	Love and light Jacob T. Love and light to you sir.
	All right, step right up.
	Roll up, roll up with a magical shape-shifting juice.
	Step right this way.
	Roll up.
	Roll up with a shape-shifting juice.
	Oh, it's just too delicious to believe, my pretty.
	There's a need for a rescue mission.
	When the world is threatened, the world needs help, it calls on America.
	And that's the story.
	My God, for 25 years, they've been growing babies and cows!
	You've got karma.
	Alrighty.
	That's all we got for today.
	Oh, my.
	Okay.
	Well, that's short.
	Yeah, go to Dvorak.org slash NA for the next show.
	It would be appreciated.
	Yes, and that show will be on Thursday.
	Oh, that'll be the show that I'm in New York.
	No, I'm sorry.
	Leave right after the show.
	We'll start a little bit early, if that's okay with you.
	Yeah, I think so.
	Yeah.
	Just so I can, because we have like five o'clock flight or something.
	So got to boogie on out of here.
	Well, thank you very much to, well, now we have, of course, an executive producer who was bumped up and we have our two associate executive producers.
	No, no, just one.
	It's one and one.
	Well, I think you know what that means.
	We can do better.
	Next show, Thursday.
	Please remember us.
	And of course, you can always do some important work by going out there, maybe propagating our formula.
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	Hey, citizens.
	Shut up, slave.
	Shut up, slave.
	I have a new word.
	Got a new word for us.
	And I think this word perfectly fits the elites in our country.
	And when I say...
	The douchebag elites.
	There's lots of elites, but the douchebag elites who really...
	I don't think they hate America, but they really don't like what's going on here.
	They don't like the American sovereignty.
	Yeah, and let's call them the globalists.
	That's easier just to call them the globalists.
	I think I have a better word for them.
	So we have xenophobe, which is a great one.
	You're afraid of the other.
	And in fact, when it's a phobia, it is an irrational fear to be...
	Okay, 112...
	Thank you.
	Here's a word which I think sums them up perfectly.
	Oikophobia.
	They are oikophobes.
	I've heard that discussed before, and I've already forgotten the meaning, because as soon as I hear the word, I think of pigs.
	Not oinkophobia.
	Oikophobia, O-I-K-O-phobia, is an aversion to home surroundings.
	And it apparently, as I discovered, it has been used in political situations, particularly in the United Kingdoms of Gitmo Nation.
	You know, I like this word because it's like the grass is greener on the other side of the fence.
	It reflects that.
	It reflects the commentary that, oh, it should be more like the Europeans because people go to Europe and go, oh, look at it in Amsterdam.
	Everyone's on a bicycle and they have special bike lanes and they actually use them.
	Of course, if you step into one, you get rammed.
	Of course, it's been their culture for 700 years, but, you know, it's just a minor point.
	Minor point.
	Oikophobia.
	I like it.
	I stumbled upon this word.
	I'm thinking, yeah, that's a good word.
	Oikophobe.
	You're an oikophobe, man.
	You hate the country.
	You hate home?
	Yeah.
	It's an irrational fear of at home the way it is.
	Oikophobia.
	So I think we'll keep that one in.
	Big, big news.
	We already alluded to it.
	Deutsche Bank is in deep, deep trouble.
	Their rating at this point, I think, is lower than Lehman before they collapsed.
	In fact, their cash on hand is lower than Lehman had before they collapsed.
	Which is why the U.S., we had the Fed, they did stress testing, and was it Bank Santander and Deutsche Bank both came out as no good.
	So I, of course, emailed my former New York banker friend.
	Ah, a report!
	Well, it's short, but it's a report.
	And it's somewhat cryptic, so I may need some help.
	So I send the email to him, DBWTF. I thought that was good.
	His response?
	I left.
	So you know what that means.
	And so then I try to bring him out a little bit and I throw back at him that which he said to us, which is we won.
	And you'll recall he said the American banks won from the European banks.
	And he couldn't really explain what that meant.
	No.
	So I just threw it back at him and said, we won!
	And he says, exactly.
	And here's where I need help.
	Now that Cali Pygmy Bank is learning how the big guys roll.
	Diamond and Blankfein were treated with appropriate respect.
	This guy, not so much.
	So I guess that she's talking about Wells Fargo.
	Is that the Cali Pygmy Bank?
	No.
	What is the Cali Pygmy Bank?
	I think he's talking about Goldman Sachs.
	But it's not California.
	Not California.
	Cali Pygmy Bank.
	Maybe it's an autocorrect.
	Maybe it was Piggy Bank.
	It may have been Piggy Bank and just change it to Pygmy Bank.
	Is that possible?
	Cali Pygmy Bank.
	I mean, Bank of America is always assumed to be California, even though it's, I think, North Carolina now.
	There's no real bank in California anymore that's a bank.
	Right.
	I mean, except these little banks.
	I don't know.
	Who are the names of the two people he dropped?
	Diamond and Blankfein.
	So Jamie Diamond from J.P. Morgan and Blankfein from Goldman Sachs.
	And he says they were treated with appropriate respect.
	Really?
	Really.
	Huh.
	I have no idea.
	I do have some of the hearings.
	In fact, I like to run these every so often.
	I have so many of them.
	And this is from the Wells Fargo hearing, which is just fascinating to watch.
	Well, it's only fascinating because these guys finally get to get stuff off of their chest.
	They're going to make one guy look like a douche.
	One guy.
	Well, no.
	They're going to bring other people in.
	Okay.
	I mean, he's the douche.
	He's the key douche they're targeting.
	And they're going to try to...
	When I was actually stunned...
	These are five minutes.
	This is like...
	And it's interesting to listen to these because I have the timer on the recordings.
	And they all go five minutes and...
	about 15 seconds before they get told it's the end.
	And most of these guys are so good at giving their five-minute spiels, the congressmen, that they end it right on time.
	It's actually amazing.
	But all this is is one Democrat and Republicans both excoriating this guy to an outrageous extent.
	If you want to play one of these clips...
	Yeah, I'd love to.
	Sure.
	And we can listen to this.
	This is one of the better ones.
	I have two that I could play today, but there's a bunch of them.
	I'm going to spread them out because they're so long.
	We have to interrupt every once in a while.
	But just listen.
	Listen, this is the Capuano who is a congressman from Massachusetts nuts, and he actually had to get cut off.
	Turn out recognizing the gentleman.
	He was on a roll, this guy.
	This guy's good.
	Gentleman is out of time.
	Gentleman's time has expired.
	Gentleman's time has expired.
	You're expired.
	You're expired.
	Thank you, Mr.
	Chairman.
	Thank you, Mr.
	Stump.
	I want to thank you particularly for doing something here today that no other person has been able to do in the last four years.
	You have brought true bipartisanship to Congress.
	We're all together on this.
	We are not happy.
	The last couple...
	Oh, they already started.
	But the last few minutes...
	They've been running a graphic in the back, and my colleague went through some of them.
	But I think it's important to know what some of the other things you have done.
	Hey, where's he from?
	Is he from New York?
	Where's he from?
	Upstate New York?
	I don't know.
	Where's he from?
	That's a Boston accent.
	Boston is kind of weird, Boston.
	I've heard it before.
	It goes up high.
	They were.
	They were.
	They were just fines.
	They're working on it.
	You screwed student loan holders.
	Credit unions.
	Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, mortgage holders, African Americans, Hispanics, healthcare workers.
	On and on and on.
	And by the way, I understand this isn't material.
	Just five months ago, you paid $1.2 billion in a fine.
	This is only 15% of that.
	Who cares?
	Who cares?
	We'll pretend to be sorry, we'll fire some workers, and we'll get through this.
	It's the American way!
	You know where I heard that before?
	The guys who ran Enron.
	The guys who ran Arthur Anderson.
	Thought the same thing.
	We're not your problem.
	We can't criminally prosecute you.
	You can keep...
	Hell, you're your own boss.
	You are the CEO and the chairman.
	Hold yourself to accountability.
	Oh my God, you've been bad.
	Oh no, you haven't.
	That's ridiculous.
	Your problem is coming.
	It's not today.
	You think today is tough?
	It's coming.
	When the prosecutors get a hold of you, You're going to have a lot of fun.
	Otherwise, you're going to have a flame coming out of your butthole!
	So I want to thank you for that.
	I want to ask you, you got the graphic up here.
	Do you know this guy?
	See, I'm not a real good researcher.
	I'm not a prosecutor.
	This is simple internet research.
	That's all I'm capable of doing.
	Google it!
	Google it!
	Boom!
	A whole bunch of stuff shows up.
	Boom!
	This is Mr.
	Robert Holmes, who apparently robbed your bank in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
	Oh, this is the one where he goes to jail because he stole money and then no one else goes to jail.
	I've heard this one.
	He did not use a weapon.
	He got caught.
	They get all the money back.
	He's in jail, as we speak, on a $750,000 bail.
	You, on the other hand, have run an enterprise that has a culture of corruption.
	You encourage subordinates to abuse existing customers by opening fake bank accounts.
	You charge those victims illegal fees, interest, and late charges.
	And then you send some of them to collection agencies because they didn't pay them.
	Then you fired 5,300 workers as if you care.
	To cover everybody's tracks.
	In my opinion, you and your entire leadership team are clearly and unequivocally guilty of at least conspiracy to commit fraud, conspiracy to commit identity theft, clearly racketeering, which is something a lot of my friends know something about.
	Is this my cousin Vinny?
	It sounds alive.
	Where's Maria Somino?
	Ticking, ticking, ticking.
	And probably a dozen other crimes.
	Only simple question.
	What the heck's the difference between you and Mr.
	Holmes?
	Why shouldn't you be in jail?
	He didn't use a gun.
	You got the money back.
	I understand that his arraignment, he said he was sorry.
	What's the difference?
	Why shouldn't you be in jail right along with Mr.
	Holmes?
	Well, let's talk to our constitutional lawyer, John C. Daborak.
	What is the difference, John, between that crime and this crime?
	Oh, the crime that the bank had committed is worse.
	It's worse.
	It's racketeering, it's conspiracy, everything he said.
	And of course, this guy is, I don't know what drugs they put the stump guy on.
	But he sits there.
	He just sits there.
	And he takes it from every...
	Everybody showed up for this hearing.
	These committees are pretty big, but sometimes only half of them show up for something.
	Because they've got another committee across the street.
	No, no, no.
	Not in this case.
	The room was packed.
	Because all it was was giving this guy the worst kind of grief you can imagine.
	Everybody wants to have a part of it.
	Everyone wants to have a swing at the pinata.
	Yeah, they want a piece of him.
	Yeah, everyone wants that.
	Sure.
	Yeah.
	I don't need to hear the rest.
	I know the...
	Unless there's something funny in the last minute and a half.
	No, he just calls him out.
	But the thing I like is he's...
	About half of the guys did the same thing, which is what I was bitching about, that this is racketeering.
	And almost half of the guys had said something about this criminal activity as...
	As being a negative thing.
	This guy does just go on and on.
	The only thing interesting is the guy tries to come back.
	The stump character from Wells tries to say something.
	Because he's not given much of a chance.
	Let it play a little longer.
	Okay, sure.
	Congressman, I think that when you do something unethical or dishonest, which I've tried to exercise my duties as a leader and our senior leadership team...
	You haven't done a real good job.
	You've had 16 violations in five years.
	That's a good job.
	This is a minor fine.
	You've had a lot of...
	This is only the seventh largest fine you've had.
	You've had six others that are a lot bigger.
	That's a good job.
	I guess I forgot.
	You're the one judging yourself because you're also the chairman of the board.
	I actually think I'm the greatest congressman in the history of the world.
	I should be speaker, president, and maybe emperor of the world.
	That's my judgment of myself.
	Sound good to you?
	There's no question that we've done things that we need to improve on, and we've paid fines.
	And we're trying to get better on every one of our businesses.
	Mr.
	Holmes pays a little fine.
	You know, a few bucks, based on the amount of money he stole, and the victims he had, you think he should be let out and have no criminal record?
	Again, being dishonest and breaking the law is something very different.
	Oh, so it's not breaking the law, stealing my identity, and opening an account that I didn't ask for?
	And our culture is about not doing that.
	We train for that not to happen.
	I don't know how much kind of a culture...
	Time, time of the gentleman...
	5,300 employees that you say did it...
	Time, time of the gentleman has expired.
	Time, time, time...
	He was the only guy who didn't have a time so he could end.
	I got a lot of email from people regarding the 28 pages and this bill that Congress and the Senate passed and President Obama vetoed it and then it came back and they overrode the veto first time for the president, for this president.
	And this is, of course, the JASTA, Justice Against Sponsive Terrorism Act.
	And I was kind of looking through this, and I got a number of emails from people saying, hey, do you remember that the victims of September 11th received billions of dollars?
	And we talked about on the show, Kenneth Feinberg, he was the guy, if you recall, was appointed by Attorney General Ashcroft to be special master of this fund, the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund.
	And it's interesting, this article actually mentions that he worked for 33 months pro bono.
	Always nice to have the magic number show up.
	Feinberg was responsible for making decisions on how much each family of a victim would receive.
	He had to estimate how much each victim would have earned in a full lifetime.
	It was very controversial because there were so many wealthy Wall Street people that those families said, well, you know, we need more because we were making this with our spouse, a parent.
	So at the end of the process, $7 billion was awarded.
	$7 billion.
	Average payout, $1.8 million.
	And this was a U.S. fund that was put into place.
	And do you think it's the same people now who want to sue Saudi Arabia based on the 28 pages?
	Do you think it's the same people going back who want money?
	I have no idea that you mentioned this.
	I forgot about that.
	Yeah, me too.
	And I remember it was very controversial.
	There were also a lot of hearings about it.
	I should probably go back and see if I can find some of the things.
	But I did look at this bill, and it doesn't seem anything really crazy or out of the ordinary.
	It pretty much...
	It says what you'd think it would say.
	Here we go.
	Reading from the bill directly.
	The United States has a vital interest in providing persons and entities injured as a result of terrorist activities committed within the United States with full access to the court system in order to pursue civil claims against persons, entities, or countries that have knowingly or recklessly provided material support or resources.
	And so really, I don't see necessarily why this bill was even necessary because it stays within the United States.
	It's no different than the lawsuit against Iran and the money that was given to victims.
	Based on Iran's sponsoring of terrorism, the purpose of this act is to provide civil litigants with the broadest possible basis consistent with the Constitution of the United States to seek relief against persons, entities, and foreign countries, wherever acting and whenever they may be found, that have provided material support directly or indirectly to foreign organizations or persons that engage in terrorist activities.
	Now, there was something in here.
	Definition of the term intentional terrorism has the meaning given to the term in United States Code, does not include an act of war.
	So if we're at war, with a declared war, I presume, then you can't...
	Well, we're not in any declared war.
	Zero.
	Zero, exactly.
	A foreign state shall not be immune from the jurisdiction of the courts of the United States.
	In any case in which money damages are sought against a foreign state for physical injury to personal property or death occurring in the United States, that again is only if it's not war, only terrorism.
	And then there is some other thing here.
	About, I'm sorry, my markings somehow lost my markups here.
	Oh yeah, there's a stay.
	This is a very interesting provision, which is not talked about.
	Actually, we have a couple of interesting provisions here.
	We have stay of action and intervention.
	The Attorney General may intervene in any action in which a foreign state is subject to the jurisdiction of a court of the United States under Section blah, blah, blah.
	For this purpose of seeking a stay, it can only last for 180 days, such a stay.
	And there are some other interventionary measures.
	But what it really seems like the problem here is nobody wants any, and the president himself said this, nobody wants any work, any investigation done into Saudi Arabian money in the United States.
	Because I think that is where the cover-up will eventually fall apart.
	I just don't think that, you know, you can't hide everything if you're transferring, you know, big money back and forth and into what groups it's going.
	Because this, of course, will also open up CARE and all these other groups.
	Yeah, to open up CARE, to open up the Clinton Foundation.
	It would be a huge mess.
	A huge mess.
	I was thinking about this, my own thesis from the last show, which is that Obama wants to get Hillary in for sure so the Clinton Foundation can take a backseat to his foundation.
	My brother's keeper, yeah.
	And he's apparently developed one of the biggest mailing lists.
	It's notoriously huge.
	It all started with the Obama for America, I think.
	Yeah.
	And it's a monster list.
	It's worth a lot of money.
	And he thinks he can start doing...
	And, you know, there's no reason for him not to get mentored a little bit because he's hanging out with Bill a little excessively, it seems to me.
	Did you see that where he was yelling at Bill to get on the plane?
	Yeah, Bill wouldn't get on the plane.
	Bill looked hammered to me when he's kind of staggering.
	But it seems as though Bill likes to talk anyway.
	It was his last to ride, that last free ride.
	I'm going to make the best of it.
	It was great.
	So he has probably discussed how the Clinton Foundation actually works as a moneymaker.
	And I think Obama's just going to do the same thing.
	And as I thought about that, the number one...
	I think the...
	People have talked about this before.
	That the Clinton Foundation just gets...
	Millions and millions, hundreds of millions of dollars from the Saudis.
	The Saudis are the big benefactors.
	You give us the money, we'll protect your flanks.
	This is what, and everyone's always bitching about Hillary, not, oh, what about, she likes the Saudis so much, but they're the worst with women's rights and all this kind of thing.
	That doesn't come to the fore.
	And Obama wants to keep, doesn't want to offend.
	That's why Obama vetoed the bill.
	He doesn't want to offend, and now he can say, hey, I vetoed the bill.
	I did my job.
	He wants to keep that Saudi money flowing into the country, and now he wants it coming to his foundation.
	And that Saudi money, they're the most generous.
	They bribe everybody.
	And he wants the money now.
	And so he vetoes the bill.
	He says it's a bad idea with a bunch of bogus reasons.
	And I just sense that the Saudis are just so corrupting that it's just something people need to be aware of.
	Yeah.
	You know, there it comes.
	There comes the dough.
	We talked about yet another interim report from the JIT, the Joint Investigation Team.
	Investigating who downed flight MH17 over Ukraine.
	And the Russians are very unhappy with these findings.
	They take a lot of issue with the sourcing of information through the internet.
	Remember, it's Bellingcat, the blogger.
	Yeah.
	Who placed the book at a certain location, which actually when you look at how this thing would have actually driven in from Russia, doubled back, you know, like a very strange route it may have taken.
	And to reiterate, I wanted to say, because one of our military guys who has been working with me on this, producers, he said, you know, the main problem with the book theory exploding to the left-hand side of the aircraft is that the shrapnel would push the metal...
	A fuselage in and not out.
	And there's plenty of pictures where you see the holes from whatever it was are going outward from the aircraft, not inward.
	So that's a huge discrepancy.
	Also, of course, books were made by Russia, and they were pretty much...
	Every piece of weaponry in the Middle East comes from us, or from Russia.
	And then another big issue...
	Well, let's listen to the report and I can tell you some of the things.
	But now Russia is angry at the Netherlands.
	Big problem, as you know, that the Netherlands economy runs on Russian oil and gas, mainly gas, and the financial world in the Netherlands with accountancies and all kinds of legal P.O. box companies.
	That's really a big part of their businesses working with Russia.
	The diplomatic row is deepening between Russia and the Netherlands over the downing of flight MH17 in Ukraine.
	Both countries have summoned each other's ambassadors for explanations after Moscow rejected the findings of international investigators implicating Russia in the tragedy two years ago.
	Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has dismissed evidence used in the probe as coming from social media and unnamed witnesses.
	Key conclusions in Wednesday's report were that the plane was hit by a Russian-made Buk missile, fired from a village held by pro-Russian rebels in eastern Ukraine, and the launcher was transported into the country from Russia.
	All 298 people on board, most of them Dutch, were killed.
	The findings counter Moscow's suggestion that the Malaysia Airlines plane on route from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur was brought down by Ukraine's military rather than the separatists.
	So the problems that Russia has specifically with the report is their evidence is based on a phone call that was overheard.
	And in that phone call, it sounds like two guys may be talking about some heavy...
	Well, actually, they talk about, you know, oh, you've got to drive that thing over there.
	They never mention Bukh.
	It actually sounds much more like they're talking about the aerodrome being attacked.
	But the funny thing was, an RTL4 reporter, when this came out, and it's in Dutch, so it makes no sense to play it, he said, I really have no questions for this joint investigation team because I find it ridiculous to have to take seriously that one of the Suspects is actually on the panel.
	And one of the suspects is, of course, Ukraine.
	That is really the argument.
	Did it come from Ukraine?
	Did it come from Russia?
	And the SBU, that's the Ukrainian Secret Service, they not only are on the team, turns out they have a veto on what goes into any report.
	So this is a sham.
	Wow.
	This is a total sham.
	They have a veto.
	And this is now just coming out, this agreement.
	They have some non-disclosures.
	But yeah, the SBU, the Secret Service of Ukraine, who are on the committee, on the joint investigation team, they have a veto of what's going in.
	I mean, please.
	Yeah.
	Well, the Russians should be irked.
	Yeah.
	The worst part about all this is that those are Nazis.
	Oh, those guys in Ukraine.
	Oh, they're total Nazis.
	Oh, my God.
	Like, literally, they're fascists from the German days and World War II days.
	And that's who Victoria Nuland and John McCain, they did deals with these very people before the Maidan.
	Yeah, we did deals with fascists.
	We've done it since the war.
	Yeah, we're pretty good at that.
	Do you remember we had, what's his face, Kirby at the State Department talking about Russia, accusing them over what happened in Syria and the bombings.
	And he was kind of cavalier.
	He's like, well, they just keep doing this.
	They're going to go back in body bags.
	Remember that?
	Oh, yeah.
	Terrible.
	Let's just listen to it just to remind ourselves of how it was.
	Kirby, not Toner.
	No, it's Kirby.
	It's Kirby.
	It's Kirby.
	What are the consequences for Russia, other than Secretary Kerry won't talk to them on this particular issue going forward?
	The consequences are that the civil war will continue in Syria, that extremist groups will continue to exploit the vacuums that are there in Syria to expand their operations, which will include, no question, attacks against Russian interests.
	Perhaps even Russian cities.
	And Russia will continue to send troops home in body bags.
	And they will continue to lose.
	Wow.
	Did you hear how he's talking?
	That's really...
	I just noticed this.
	They will...
	And...
	Even perhaps more aircraft.
	Alright, so the Russians heard this, of course, like we did, and they went, hey!
	What's this big mouth you got, man, about body bags?
	Huh?
	Are you threatening me, punk?
	I wasn't issuing any threat yesterday to...
	You say that, you know, those cities could be vulnerable.
	Russians will go back in body bags or something.
	Yeah.
	No, those were facts.
	That's the best line ever.
	It's a fact.
	I'm not threatening anybody.
	It's just a fact.
	You're going to go home in body bags.
	Very nice.
	And they're not new facts.
	They're not things that we haven't said before.
	The question was, what would be the consequences to Russia for not being serious about meeting their commitments?
	And I said what I have said, the secretary has said many times before, that the consequences are more war, more bloodshed.
	And it's Russian troops that are in that war, not U.S. troops.
	So it was just a fact.
	There was no threat.
	There was no...
	You know, I've seen claims that I was trying to incite terrorism, and that's just completely That's not at all the point that I was trying to make.
	Only if you tweet it.
	That's when it's illegal.
	You can probably say it, but if you tweet it now, that would be inciting terrorism.
	Douchebag.
	Let me douche this guy.
	Douchebag!
	Thank you.
	Douchebag.
	Unbelievable.
	Terrible.
	Unbelievable.
	And he's so glib about everything.
	Yeah.
	Hey.
	Hey, the news coming from the military producers is there's high expectation of another Middle East war on bigger scale between countries themselves.
	And the reasoning behind that is that we seem to be kind of in irons, not doing anything.
	They know President Obama's not really going to do anything, certainly not in his last few months.
	And then you have nutjobs, nutjobs who say, hey, wait a minute, I could be the ruler of this place.
	There's a lot of worry about that.
	I'll bet.
	In fact, CIA Director Brennan was on some kind of panel or something, and Jake Tapper from CNN was moderating, and he talked about terrorist groups and what we should look forward to.
	Of course, now we know it's not at all going to be directed terrorism.
	No, it's inspired terrorism, which is much more fun.
	Because, you know, anything can be inspired terrorism.
	It'll be fantastic.
	And you have to remember that Brennan speaks, I think, five dialects of Arabic.
	The guy is an Arabophile.
	I did not know that.
	Yeah, we've talked about it.
	Yeah, he lived there for many, many years.
	He speaks five dialects.
	In fact, he doesn't say caliphate.
	He says caliphate.
	Which I guess is some official pronunciation we should adhere to.
	Here's his view on what we're going to see terrorism-wise in the United States.
	Do you agree that widening the optic by talking about Islam, by talking about banning Muslims, is that a hindrance to actually carrying out your work?
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	It's CNN, so Jake Tapper has to set him up to slam Trump, obviously.
	Words and comments that taint the religion as being the source of the problem, I think, is tremendously detrimental to our interests and to a better understanding of this phenomenon.
	I have met with princes and presidents and prime ministers throughout the Middle East.
	They are outraged that they're...
	Do you think it was of significance they said, I've met with princes?
	I mean, it sounds to me like that was top of mind.
	Because you could have said royalty, you could have said king...
	But he said, princess.
	And he kind of like retakes it and says something else.
	Maybe.
	Tremendously detrimental to our interests and to a better understanding of this phenomenon.
	I have met with princes and presidents and prime ministers throughout the Middle East.
	They are outraged that their community, their Muslim community, has been infected by this cancer.
	Individuals who have this distorted and very perverted interpretation of Islam that pursue these psychopathic agendas of horrific violence.
	And they recognize that they have a very important role, the leading role, to help purge their communities of these influences.
	These individuals who are fanatics, extremists and terrorists, they are driven by this ideology that is not rooted in Islam.
	It's a psychopathic ideology that is very absolutist, that either you are with us or against us.
	And that's why the...
	Wait a minute.
	Isn't that what we always say?
	That's what George Bush always says.
	You're either with us or you're with the enemy.
	It's the same thing.
	Absolutist.
	I'm sorry.
	It sounds like we're pretty good at terrorism, too.
	...are driven by this ideology that is not rooted in Islam.
	It's a psychopathic ideology that is very absolutist, that either you are with us or against us.
	And that's why the...
	That's inspired by George W. Bush, then.
	That's...
	That's your ideology right there.
	I'm inspired by Bush.
	The establishment of the caliphate, the so-called caliphate by ISIL, as well as al-Qaeda's agenda, really are trying to cause this, what Samuel Huntington in his previous work in the 60s referred to the clash of civilizations.
	They want to drive this wedge between the West and the Muslim world.
	There you go.
	What I found interesting there, besides that he consistently calls it the caliphate, Which I guess is official pronunciation.
	It kind of ruins our tune.
	It does.
	That does ruin our tune.
	The Brady Bunch?
	Wasn't that it?
	I think so.
	Here it is.
	Let's have a listen.
	Caliphate!
	Oh, we can change it.
	Caliphate!
	That is why we've all died of Caliphate!
	Caliphate!
	Yeah, we have to change that to caliphate, just to be official.
	Caliphate.
	Caliphate.
	Yeah.
	Here's a good one while we're at it.
	Play this one.
	Comey terrorist diaspora.
	There will be a terrorist diaspora sometime in the next two to five years, like we've never seen before.
	We must prepare ourselves and our allies, especially in Western Europe, to confront that threat.
	Oh, boy.
	Yeah.
	That's to distract people from his Hillary thing.
	Yeah.
	That was a good suggestion from the chat room.
	Caliphate condoms.
	Might be just a great product.
	Caliphate.
	Caliphate condoms.
	Now ribbed.
	Ribbed.
	Now extra slippery.
	Okay.
	Onward.
	Yes, onward indeed.
	Let's go to the cyber.
	There's a little thing I got from PBS. This is actually more than a little thing.
	It's too damn long.
	This is what I designed to break it up into pieces, but I didn't.
	Instead, I just have it as one long clip.
	You can stop it when you feel like it.
	We can maybe restart it if you want.
	This is the long form of PBS decided to discuss...
	The hacks and the Russians and the laws that affect the election.
	The next election is going to be...
	And by the way, I did learn one thing in this clip.
	One thing I learned is that Pennsylvania is one of the swing states, one of the so-called swing states, that whoever wins that state could win the election.
	And they do not have in Philadelphia, which is expected to go, because it's always gone this way, heavily Democratic.
	Mm-hmm.
	In Philadelphia alone, they only use the touchscreen machines that do not make a backup of the...
	There's no printed record.
	There's no printed record, so you can go in there and everyone can vote for Trump and Hillary will win.
	You know, it would be so easy.
	It would be very easy for the president to just say, come out and say...
	Okay, Donald Trump has said that there's issues maybe with the voting.
	We have all kinds of problems.
	We have all kinds of, you know, voter ID laws that discriminate against poor people, black people, old people, brown people, red people, anything but straight white men.
	I think we should just say, you know what, we're going back to the inkwell, and you show up, you vote, you dip your finger in the inkwell, and you voted.
	There is nothing wrong with that.
	Yeah, he could do that.
	I would suggest that is a very good idea.
	Individual states could do it.
	Now, who am I? Concern has been growing about possible cyber manipulation of the U.S. election since revelations in June that the Democratic National Committee and Democratic Congressional Committee's data Now
	wait a minute.
	These are the databases that are pretty much publicly available.
	Most of them, yes.
	Yeah, you can just go online and you can get them.
	That question is never asked.
	Neither is the question which was posed by RT, which is if you've hacked the Democratic National Committee, you have all these databases in there.
	Right.
	And then we also have the innuendo.
	This is one of the worst reports I've ever heard, by the way.
	The innuendo about the Russians is, well, you know, no one will say it out loud, but behind closed doors they all say it.
	Right.
	Many more state voter databases.
	Margaret Warner has been looking into this and joins me now.
	So what's the real danger to the elections if voter registration databases are being hacked?
	Hari, on the one hand, it could be strictly criminal.
	People want to get addresses, home phone numbers, emails, and use it for criminal purposes.
	And many states have had to deal with that in the past.
	But the other danger is that that information can be used to selectively manipulate the vote on Election Day.
	For example, send out emails to voters in certain districts, perhaps minority districts, saying, oh, your registration place has been changed, you're voting...
	Place has been changed, and this has been done often by phone.
	Oh man, I wish I had...
	I didn't clip that clandestine audio from Hillary Clinton.
	I figured everyone had already heard it.
	But in that, she talks about changing districts.
	Rigging the districts.
	This is a common practice, is it not?
	In American politics?
	I didn't know that until this year.
	Hmm.
	Or to simply delete them from the database.
	When they get there, there's incredible confusion.
	So as a senior Homeland Security official told me this afternoon, the other...
	Hacking is one thing.
	Going to the database and starting to edit it?
	Is that what they're actually saying is possible?
	You can do that?
	Or they're doing that?
	I guess if you have access to the database, you can edit it.
	But why?
	Why would you want to do that?
	Well, it would be very complicated, too.
	You need, you know, the databases, if you start editing the database, it's going to show up in some log.
	Yeah.
	I just don't see this.
	What's the point?
	Did they give an explanation of why the database will be edited?
	Yeah, she just said.
	You take somebody's name off the list, and when they go to vote, they say, you're not on the list.
	And then confusion ensues.
	Ah, I gotcha.
	And by the way, this has happened to me.
	I went in to vote, this is years ago, and my name wasn't anywhere there.
	I said, what, what, what, what?
	And they said, oh, here's a provisional ballot, and they give you this ballot, which gets counted with the rest of them.
	Maybe.
	Maybe.
	Well, maybe not.
	Maybe none of them get counted.
	Exactly.
	There's incredible confusion.
	Okay, I got you.
	So, as a senior Homeland Security official told me this afternoon, the other danger that really worries us is that just the news of these hacks...
	We've undermined American voters' view of the credibility of the U.S. election system, and there are certainly foreign powers who would like to do that.
	So let's talk about those foreign powers.
	Do U.S. officials believe that the Russians are behind this, or any of the other hacks that have been related so far?
	Yes.
	First of all, they established that they were behind the hacks you mentioned earlier, the DNC and the DCCC, and that they're two sort of outfits.
	One's called Fancy Bear.
	It's a nickname, and one's Cozy Bear.
	One's linked to the old.
	I'm telling you, our own hacking group should be Huggy Bear.
	I'll just say it again.
	KGB, called the GRRU, and one is linked to the military intelligence.
	And I was told by cyber experts who've been involved in these investigations that these voter database hacks are the work of so-called Fancy Bear, which is the one tied to Russian military intelligence.
	This is the same outfit that in Ukraine, in the Ukrainian elections two years ago, penetrated the database of the Ukrainian election authorities and tried to switch the actual plate that showed who was winning where.
	They didn't succeed, but the fake plate that showed someone else won did end up on Russian TV in Russia.
	It's almost like the Dewey wins.
	Well, that's very sophisticated.
	Now we're actually hacking in...
	Bake plate.
	Yeah, soon we'll be driving down I-35 and the Russians will have hacked some of the road signs.
	It'll say something like, die, scum.
	Hang on.
	Completely irrelevant.
	Homeland Security Jay Johnson said this morning that by design almost, or at least by reality, 9,000 different precincts that we have, they don't all use the same system, don't have the same databases, so there's not a direct threat in manipulating the overall result.
	He's actually right about that.
	It's a crazy system, and as he said, 9,000 different precincts.
	But there is an Internet connection at some point when most of them report to the Central Commission, though that can always be checked back.
	The other vulnerability, though, is some states still use voter touchscreen machines that leave no paper audit trail.
	So, like, in a swing state like Pennsylvania, which is just true, in Philadelphia, there's no paper trail.
	All right.
	Whereas in Bucks County there is.
	So if someone were really smart, picked swing districts in swing states, and put malware in the computer, you know, the voting machines, to go off that day and change every third Clinton vote for Trump or vice versa, it'd be impossible to go back later and check.
	So what's the government doing about this, considering we're 39 days away?
	Well, not as much as many cyber security experts would like.
	What Jay Johnson, the Secretary of Homeland Security, did do right in mid-summer was call all the secretaries of state, have a big conference call and say, look, there's a big danger out there.
	One, we want you to, and we're ready to help.
	So, he sent out a lot of new standards.
	He said, you have to be sure to close all your open doors.
	A lot of these precincts just don't have the manpower or the money to do it right.
	And we'll give you technical help.
	I was told this afternoon that 18 to 20 of the states have actually asked for and received nightly what's called cyber election screening, where they basically run through the system and then they alert the federal government does.
	The UN Security does and then says to.
	All right.
	Update McAfee and execute.
	You know, by the way, we discovered something funny.
	You need to patch this.
	That said, that does not fix the election machines themselves.
	So what they did not do, the federal government chose not to do, is declare it part of critical infrastructure.
	That would have given the federal government the ability to go reeling in.
	And set up standards and also send a message to Russia that this is really in there and this is considered grounds for retaliation.
	All right, Margaret.
	We're talking about a corrupt system where either one of the Democrats or Republicans can fix these stupid machines that don't have a paper trail.
	And okay, you can continuously talk about Russia, but the fact remains, this is a dumb idea.
	Did anyone talk about that being a dumb idea and let's just do it on paper?
	No.
	Why is that?
	It takes Russia out of the picture.
	You can't have that.
	Ah, yes, of course.
	Bastards in Russia trying to screw with our elections and get Trump elected?
	Yeah, of course.
	You got it.
	That's it.
	Makes so much sense.
	Well, Trump definitely got some...
	This will be the last one before we take a little break.
	He definitely got a present, I would say, from the recent...
	Testimony from USCIS, I think he's the director, Rodriguez.
	That's the United States Citizen Immigration Service.
	Those are the guys you actually have to pay the $2,500 to before you pay another $2,000, $3,000 to your lawyer for one person to be petitioned and then to become legal.
	That's the part that's broken.
	These guys are just stealing money from people.
	And the question came up about Syrian refugees.
	And, you know, Trump has been saying, well, you know, Skittles.
	Three Skittles would kill you.
	It would be horrible.
	Turns out, it's not just three Skittles.
	It's actually much higher.
	But there's a little sneaky wordage going on here.
	That since September 11th, not a single act of actual terrorist violence has been committed by a refugee who has undergone our screening procedures.
	This is Vitter, a Republican from Louisiana.
	There have been individuals who came to the U.S. as children.
	There are individuals who came a long time ago before our modern procedures, but since September 11th, all we have had is conspiracies, not only by refugees, but in fact by U.S.-born persons, other kinds of immigrants.
	It's really an equal opportunity world.
	And just to make clear, when he speaks of conspiracies, he's not talking about conspiracy theories, he's actually using the word properly, that there have been people who have conspired together to do bad things.
	That's the conspiracy.
	So, you don't count conspiracies?
	They're not actual acts of violence.
	They were effectively disrupted by U.S. law enforcement.
	Okay.
	Is my point.
	I want to get your point.
	So that would be our FBI's six-week cycle.
	Effectively interrupted.
	And we know that in the six-week cycle, while I was still around, FBI had patsies.
	They had lots of informants that go in, talk to somebody, some moron.
	How many cases have we documented of this?
	10?
	15?
	15?
	Well, I think you can document this most recent thing in New York as part of this program.
	Exactly, and I have a clip to follow up, but first let's get back to the refugees from Syria.
	Mr.
	Rodriguez, Fordham Law School's Center on National Security has released a report on ISIS prosecutions in the United States.
	And they looked at all ISIS prosecutions in the United States and determined that of those Involved in that, 18% were refugees or asylees.
	Shouldn't that be of enormous concern to all of us?
	Without a doubt, yes.
	I mean, isn't that a very big percentage?
	No.
	It's not a big percentage.
	No, no, no.
	I didn't get to say what I was about to say.
	My question is, isn't that a very big percentage, 18%?
	1% would be a big percentage.
	This is an area of significant concern.
	Those cases are darn relevant, aren't they?
	Just as relevant as a successful violent attack?
	Oh, sure they are.
	And they inform a number of the improvements that we've made over the years.
	Many of those cases involve admissions that took place a while ago.
	So just to clarify your earlier statement, again, you touted, nobody came in through the refugee program as an adult who committed a violent act, but there sure were those who came in who were convicted of terrorist defenses.
	I was transparent about that.
	That's correct.
	Oh.
	Well, you're only transparent about it once that...
	No, no, I said it in my opening remarks.
	I said it in my opening remarks.
	So there's your gift.
	18% of all refugees or asylees...
	Have gone on to...
	I think you misheard.
	Okay.
	18% of all the ISIS cases turned out to be refugees.
	Oh, so it's the other way around.
	Yeah, 18% of the cases, not 18% of the refugees.
	Otherwise, you'd be having...
	That's why I was all freaked out, so I misunderstood that.
	Still a high number, but...
	So what does that mean?
	Well, it depends if there's only two cases and...
	Right, right, right, right.
	They didn't give us raw numbers.
	But the guy was misleading, I have to say.
	No doubt about it.
	He made it sound like there's none.
	Even though he claims he had some other...
	I don't know why.
	I had to re-listen to that clip to see what he was talking about.
	Yeah.
	So then we have the New York, New Jersey bomber.
	And I don't know if you have any clips on that, but what I do have here is Comey, and he...
	He's asked the question, what happened when the bomber's dad said, hey, FBI, this guy's radicalized.
	He's one of you, I think.
	Isn't that what he said?
	Yeah, something like that.
	He's one of you, and you should pick him up.
	There were a couple other details that I got out of this, but Comey doesn't really want to answer the question as to why the FBI at the time did not even interview him.
	His father had accused him of being a terrorist at one time, and he'd stabbed his brother and was in jail.
	Did the FBI interview him when he was in jail about his possible terrorist tendencies and his trips to Pakistan or Afghanistan?
	I'll answer that.
	I'm trying to be very circumspect in how I answer questions about the case because the guy's alive and is entitled to a fair trial, and so I don't do anything.
	I don't think you're entitled to a fair trial if you've committed terrorism.
	Well...
	No, it doesn't matter.
	Yes, you are.
	If you do it, then you're an American citizen, I believe so.
	The thing here is, first of all, the question was sketchy because he says, was he interviewed while he was in jail?
	So Comey has to stop and think, wait a minute.
	Well, I think the reason is because the piece of information we didn't have is that he had stabbed his brother, and that's when he got hauled off, and I think that's when the father said to the FBI, you've got to look into this kid because he's radicalized.
	Well, let's see how come he continues.
	I'll answer that.
	I'm trying to be very circumspect in how I answer questions about the case because the guy's alive and is entitled to a fair trial, and so I don't want to do anything that would allow him to argue.
	He lost the ability to have a fair trial.
	The answer is we did not interview him when he was in jail in 2014.
	And why would that be?
	You interviewed the father, I believe.
	You might have talked to the brother.
	You might have talked to a friend.
	The best evidence was him.
	He's in jail.
	He didn't have to...
	Why did they not go and talk to him?
	Sitting here, I don't want to answer that question yet.
	I've commissioned, as I do in all of these cases, a deep look back.
	We're trying to make the case now.
	We will go back very carefully, try to understand what decisions the agents made who investigated that and why, and whether there is learning from that.
	So I don't want to answer it just now because I'd be speculating a bit.
	No, of course not.
	They did interview him, but not in jail.
	You're right.
	I think you nailed it on that.
	In fact, I have a video which I put in the show notes, which is very similar to what you played earlier.
	And you can see the guy with the flannel shirt who was there originally.
	And he's there.
	I think he gets into the ambulance with the guy.
	No.
	Well, maybe.
	I thought he was getting ready to get in the ambulance.
	Oh, that could be.
	Yeah, it's bad.
	Don't say anything.
	Sad news from New York.
	Sad.
	After...
	What is it?
	How many years has this thing been around?
	Since 1937, the Carnegie Deli in Manhattan is going to close.
	Yeah.
	This is sad.
	This is a staple.
	The best, well, the stage deli is still there, and the real deli, Katz's or whatever it is now, way downtown, is where everyone really goes to.
	Lower East, yeah.
	Now, yeah, it's a big deal.
	It's a classic place, and I used to go there, and you get this pastrami sandwich that would feed a regiment.
	Yeah, a four-inch sandwich.
	Yeah.
	And all the pickles you can eat free.
	Yeah.
	And, yeah, well, there was a divorce in the family, and they owned the building.
	It's not like they have to close it, but the woman, the wife took it over, and she doesn't like running a deli, I guess.
	She said, you know, it's just a lot of hassle, you know, and I don't think it was...
	I think that they didn't receive the support they needed.
	Well, at least that's what I'm seeing now.
	I'm seeing everywhere you can set your clock to it.
	Oh, I wish I had supported him more.
	I wish I had gone more often.
	I had no idea.
	I didn't know.
	I never thought about how...
	I think that people make it look easy.
	Make it look easy to run a deli since 1937.
	Believe me, it's not.
	No, that's what I'm saying.
	But people take that for granted.
	And then when it's gone, it's like, ah, well, I can always go to Cats.
	That's a long haul to go there.
	Well, let's thank a few people that did.
	Well, let's do this then.
	I'm going to show my support by donating to No Agenda.
	Imagine all the people who could do that.
	Oh yeah, that'd be fab.
	Yeah, on No Agenda in the morning.
	Let's start with Andrea Cardenas in San Diego, California.
	$150.
	Thank you for your invaluable analysis of the media week after week.
	I started listening to No Agenda after my boyfriend repeatedly hit me in the mouth.
	I got tired of asking about No Agenda's take on current events every week.
	And she ended up listening herself and here we are.
	Thank you, Andrea.
	Could be Andrea, by the way.
	Could be Andrea.
	Could be.
	Baron of Guam, Chad Biderman.
	Biderman.
	Around Lake Illinois, $150.
	I have a note here somewhere.
	And since he's kindly sent it, I have to at least do some take on this note because it's actually hand-typed.
	Nice.
	With a beat-up old thing that's got just a collector's item.
	Can you identify?
	Is it Corona, perhaps?
	No.
	I can't tell.
	But it is the...
	I think it's elite.
	Answering your call for support and there's a bunch of exes.
	You can't get white out anymore.
	Really?
	You can't get white out?
	I don't know.
	Maybe you can.
	You know who invented that, don't you?
	You?
	No.
	I think it was the monkey's mom.
	Was it not Davy Jones' mom?
	I have no idea.
	Yeah, I'm pretty sure she invented whiteout.
	Yeah.
	Paint?
	Yeah, you know what I mean.
	Yeah, no, it's great.
	The quality, I use it all the time.
	The quality of no agenda has been the top drawer, as always, so I can only speculate as to why the stingy bastards in your audience aren't coughing up some shekels.
	Your analysis has done so much to expand my own critical thinking that the enclosed $150 donation doesn't approach the gratitude I feel two times a week.
	Anyway, he says Netflix costs $10 a month.
	HBO costs $20 a month.
	Audible.com gives you free audiobooks for $15 a month.
	The New York Times costs over $12 a month.
	Think about what you get in return for that money and then, and then some things, and then stack it up against no agenda.
	You know, come on.
	It was a good setup.
	It goes on and on.
	By the way, it was Mike Nesmith's mom.
	Oh, okay.
	Yeah.
	That would make more sense.
	All right.
	Thank you, Chad, Baron of Guam.
	Yeah.
	Brian Massey in Hartford, Connecticut, 104.15.
	He says, it's been almost seven years since my first $2 monthly donation, which is not even available anymore.
	And he goes on and he says he's writing Maid Night.
	Sir Ryan Knight...
	Sorry, this is important.
	Donation of 104.15 for 10-4-15 to commemorate the first anniversary of my wedding to my wonderful and beautiful wife, Jenna.
	And that brought his contribution up to the required amount.
	And he says it's been almost seven years since my first $2 monthly donation.
	So congratulations, Sir Brian Knight of Northern Connecticut.
	Yes, you're in.
	Sure, if you checked on the $2 donation, they pulled it sometime to get back.
	Sir Ryan Knight of the Tesla Coil, Tampa, Florida, $101.16.
	That was a recommended donation.
	Yes.
	Trevor Mudge, Sir Trevor to you.
	Yep.
	In Ann Arbor, Michigan, $101.16.
	Lucas Lundy in Tacoma, Washington, $100.
	Three paycheck a month, 55% to knighthood.
	Then we have one that came in as a note.
	Sorry guys, it didn't bother you, but I never got mentioned for this donation.
	This is Brian Mickey, $100.
	He says he does care about no agenda.
	And he says, karma for...
	We'll put this at the end.
	Okay, for Eric.
	We'll just call him Eric.
	Jeffrey Solomon in Los Angeles, California, $100.
	Wait, did you do Lucas Lundy?
	Lundy?
	Lucas Lundy in Tacoma, Washington?
	Yeah.
	That's why I said 55% tonight.
	Ah, I gotcha.
	I gotcha.
	Okay.
	I specifically said that.
	Jeffrey Solomon in Los Angeles, California.
	Christopher Gray.
	I think that's Sir Christopher.
	Yes.
	In Roscommon, Michigan.
	Melissa Hodges in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
	Armando Guerra, your buddy.
	In Bern, Texas.
	Isn't that the mailman?
	Bernie.
	Bernie.
	Armando Guerra, yes.
	He is our mail carrier, to be exact.
	From Bernie, Texas.
	Hey, bud.
	Sorry I've been a douchebag all summer when I saw the newsletter from John.
	I knew I had to act.
	Happy 9th anniversary.
	Hit me up if you're in Bernie or Kerrville.
	Oh, good.
	He's working there now.
	All right.
	When is our anniversary?
	It's this month, is it not?
	Our 9th?
	Yes, yes.
	This is our anniversary month.
	When is the...
	What is the day?
	What is our big day?
	I think the 26th, 25th, 26th, something like that.
	You should look that up.
	Let's see.
	Yeah.
	Scott Olson in San Diego, 90.
	Brad Doherty, Brooklyn, New York, 90.
	These are anniversary donations.
	Tony Cabrera, Parts Unknown, 7226.
	James Moore.
	Tony is from the No Agenda Shop, noagendashop.com, the latest share of our profits.
	Thank you.
	James Moore in San Pablo, California, right down the street from me.
	Great Mexican store in that town.
	It's a Mexican town, really.
	Mexican-American.
	But if anyone has a grocery store near them that is one of these supermarkets, there's about three chains of them.
	They sell mostly with a Mexican slant.
	Fabulous.
	Don't go anywhere else.
	Rowley Rakama in Helsinki, Florida.
	6666.
	Sir Inside Jobs.
	Black Knight, Seattle.
	6666.
	Daniel Hutner in...
	Hathaway Pines.
	He's got a call out here for somebody.
	Hey, as JC said in the recent newsletter, still waiting for the meetup at the Sacramento Train Museum.
	John.
	Asking for some F cancer karma as my family just learned that a true friend was diagnosed with breast cancer.
	Love and light to Mary in her battle.
	I'm a knight who's never asked for a title.
	Always proudly been known as Sir Daniel Hutner.
	In my message with my donation, I ask if I could be now known as Sir Dan, Knight of the Absurdly Large Campfire.
	I think we can do that.
	Thanks to you and John for a great show.
	Sir Dan, Knight of the Absurdly Large Campfire, and the douchebag, longtime boner, never a donor, is Gene Ablin, so we'll call him out.
	Douchebag!
	And we'll do an F cancer at the end of the segment for you.
	Do we have him on the list for an upgrade?
	Yes, we do.
	And since he's not really changing his title, he's getting his title, I can use the new jingles we have for that.
	Ah, good.
	I'm glad somebody responded.

	And finally, Sir Alan Bean of Oakland and Jared Seuss of Chicago.
	That concludes our group of producers for show 865.
	Yes, and thank you to everyone who came in.
	Under $50, usually for reasons of anonymity, definitely a low today, so we encourage you to help us a little bit.
	There was one request for the Donate to No Agenda jingle.
	And we have an F Cancer.
	And, oh, you know, Trump gave us a new Jobs thing, which is kind of nice.
	Jobs!
	Wow.
	Not quite as good as Nancy Pelosi's.
	No, Pelosi's the best.
	What he has to do is, she said, let's vote for Jobs.
	Let's vote for Jobs.
	That's the part that he's missing, yeah.
	And she also does it four times.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs.
	You're right.
	Well, we'll hear it in a moment.
	Thank you again.
	Remember, we have a show coming up on Thursday.
	Thursday, we need all the help that we can get.
	Dvorak.org slash NA.

	Come gather round, douchebag, producer and slave As we all thank your brothers and sisters who gave And some of them nights, some of them days For the time Do we have the best producers in the universe or what?
	I was wondering what you'd come up with to make that work.
	I really like that.
	Absolutely dynamite.
	Yeah, and I didn't come up with it.
	I didn't come up with it.
	That is actually Ryan Sprinkle.
	Ryan Sprinkle has done a crap load of jingles for us, and I don't think he really gets the credit.
	The one we play every single show, actually, is this one.
	That's the 8-bit no agenda.
	Does he...
	Yes, from the Mario Brothers.
	Yeah.
	Does he do this for a living?
	He sounds very professional.
	I have no idea.
	He's done a lot.
	I mean, if you look at his list, it's pretty crazy.
	We do have two nightings.
	If I could have your blade at the ready, please.
	That'd be nice to have.
	Very good.
	All right, up here on the podium, please join us, James Richards and Brian Massey.
	Both of you can come up here.
	You decide the lectern will be fine.
	Thank you both for your support of the best podcast in the universe, the amount of $1,000 or more.
	That means you are now going to take place at the coveted roundtable of the No Agenda Knights and Dames.
	And I hereby am very proud to pronounce the KV, Sir James, the vaping dude named Ben of Massachusetts, and Sir Brian Knight of Northern Connecticut.
	We have hookers and blow, rent boys and chardonnay.
	We've got white widow and brownies.
	We've got mangoes and filet mignon, kilts and kilt lifter ale.
	We've got crickets and cream, DMT and astral travel.
	We've got hookers and mollies, sparkling siren escorts, ginger ale and gerbils, and, of course, mutton and mead.
	So both of you, please head on over to noagendanation.com slash rings.
	Give Eric all of your information.
	We'll get that out to you.
	A-S-A-P. And tweet it when you get it, will ya?
	We love showing people.
	Was White Widows and Brownies?
	White Widow and Brownies.
	White Widow is a very famous strain of marijuana.
	Ah!
	Yep.
	Very obscure.
	I'll say it was obscure.
	I only have a couple left, but I did want to play, since his English is fascinating to listen to, our new pal Duarte from the Philippines.
	Okay, I've got the Duarte clip.
	Alright, then we'll use your Duarte clip.
	Well, my Duarte clip comes from, I think, the best source, which is because they don't know what to make of this guy.
	Democracy Now!
	So Duarte is the president of the Philippines.
	They call him the Donald Trump of the Philippines.
	Yeah, of course.
	And he's pretty much been just killing thousands of people, anyone involved in any kind of drugs.
	He rounds them up or just shoots them.
	A lot of people, they love him in the Philippines.
	Apparently.
	In general, they love him.
	Okay, I have my clip on standby just in case, but we'll listen to yours.
	He has been saying some funny stuff.
	You'll remember, he is the guy who said about President Obama, what did he say?
	Hey, jag off, don't come here, tell us what to do.
	Yeah.
	Or something like that.
	And he called him a son of a whore, wasn't that it?
	Son of a whore.
	Yeah, I'd say it's time to bomb the Philippines.
	And in the Philippines, President Rodrigo Duterte said today he'd be happy to slaughter drug addicts just like Adolf Hitler massacred millions of Jews during the Holocaust.
	Duterte made the remarks during a rambling speech after returning from a trip to Vietnam.
	Hitler massacred 3 million Jews.
	Now, there is 3 million drug addicts.
	There are.
	I'd be happy to slaughter them.
	At least, if Germany had Hitler, the Philippines would have.
	But, you know, my victims would like to be all criminals to finish the problem of my country and save the next generation from perdition.
	Interesting.
	I have a different clip from Duarte.
	Oh!
	Yeah, this guy is a goldmine.
	Oh, he's great.
	I wish he spoke a little better English.
	Yeah, this is actually, this is pretty close mic'd, the clip I have, so it's easier to understand.
	I will tell you in advance, he, in essence, is saying black people and Syrian people are dying because of the policies and actions of the United States.
	I'd say that's kind of fighting words.
	Gun law, sir.
	It can happen.
	It happens in America.
	They're shooting the blacks there.
	It shows on TV. What's the difference between America and the Philippines?
	Nothing.
	So what is surprising here is surprising to us.
	We see a policeman shooting a black guy there.
	How many times had it happened in the past?
	That's why you have the violent demonstration.
	So, would it surprise you and me?
	Almost the same.
	One case only, three cases here.
	So what?
	It involves the same principle.
	See, for every one black there dead, you have about five here.
	And so, does it make this world more livable because there is less killing?
	When you shoot a black there dead, what is that?
	Is that not appalling?
	When you bomb Syria and Iraq and you kill communities and you kill children and old people and hospitals, what is it?
	And why is it that the United States is not doing anything?
	I do not read anybody in that stupid body complaining about the stench there of death.
	Look at the iconic boy that was taken out from the rubble.
	And he was made to sit in the ambulance.
	And we saw it.
	So what's the difference?
	Life of a criminal?
	Or maybe he was really rubbed out?
	Don't rub.
	Rubble.
	He liked the rubble.
	This guy's a goldmine.
	He knows it's all about rubbleization, too.
	He knows it.
	Rubble.
	They make it rubble.
	I don't know how long this guy's going to stay in business.
	I think a coup is in his future.
	Some form of regime change, perhaps.
	From the Netherlands.
	Wow, wow, wow.
	It's that time again.
	We're getting up towards December 5th.
	And you know what that means.
	No.
	That means Black Pete.
	Black Pete.
	That's right.
	St.
	Nicholas will be coming to the Netherlands.
	And again, we open up the huge cesspool of a tradition where we have Black Pete.
	I don't think we need to go into it entirely.
	We talk about it every year.
	Well, it'll get worse and we'll have some clips as we get closer to December 5th.
	But here's the thing.
	And this, of course, this is actually a part of oikophobia.
	Oh my gosh, we're Dutch and we've had this tradition of St.
	Nicholas coming on the steamboat with his Black Pete's racist!
	We've been racist all this time!
	We hate ourselves!
	Check it out.
	There's a big toy store now that has said, because of all of the Black Pete controversy, we're not going to have any St.
	Nicholas stuff in our store this year.
	Not even the good St.
	Nick himself.
	Yeah, that's a big wow.
	That's a big wow.
	People are getting outraged once again.
	Once again.
	So we'll have plenty of clips coming up, I'm sure.
	Normally, before all this became a controversy, could you buy a Black Pete doll?
	Oh yeah, dolls.
	You could buy the wigs, the makeup for it.
	Of course, it's just part of the Dutch culture.
	Huh.
	Yeah.
	And now, for the biggest retail toy store to say, we're not going to put any Sinterklaas, no St.
	Nicholas in the stores, my goodness.
	And there was one of our producers sent me a picture of a grade school quiz, and it was a drawing of Black Pete.
	This may be for like eight-year-old, nine-year-olds.
	And the question was, why...
	What was it?
	It was something like, why do people continue...
	No.
	I need to look it up.
	But anyway, they showed this.
	Why is this a controversy?
	Why do people continue to do this?
	And the answers were pretty much because they just like to pester black people and because they're really racist.
	That was like the two answers.
	What's the racist thing?
	You can't have a black...
	Is it any black doll?
	Well, it's blackface.
	No, the problem is...
	Oh, that's right.
	Black Pete was not black.
	Black Pete is blackface, which has a very different connotation in...
	You really know what you're talking about for people out there.
	Blackface was actually done by blacks initially.
	Originally.
	And there's a good exposition about this in the Shuffle Along play that was in Broadway, which we got to see.
	And the Shuffle Along play, which is all black performers doing this fantastic take on the story behind the original Shuffle Along, is more or less a two-hour lecture on Blacks in America in the 20s.
	And you get to find out all kinds of stuff.
	Who stole what from the blacks?
	Blackface was done by blacks mostly.
	And it was the reason when whites started doing it was because it was an appropriation.
	Right.
	And that was no good.
	The blacks could do blackface.
	So if Black Pete is black underneath the blackface...
	Then it should be okay.
	Do we have any idea whether he was or not?
	No.
	I have no idea.
	The whole thing is just troubling.
	And it really shows...
	Was it Brendan was talking about the clash of civilizations?
	This is really it.
	You're really seeing this happening in Europe now.
	And it's going to be very, very problematic.
	Although, wait for the outrage when Playboy is going to feature a Muslim woman in a hijab.
	Yeah, in a hijab.
	Naked.
	No, not naked.
	No.
	What's the point?
	Well, I think they'll have problems anyway.
	I think it's a very dangerous thing to do.
	You know, we can't be doing that.
	We can't be drawing cartoons.
	We can't be...
	Hey, my buddy Teofel Hall was killed because he made a movie about Muslim women and what they can and can't do.
	You gotta be careful.
	I mean, I'm all for free speech and I think definitely do it, but hmm.
	Yeah.
	You're not doing it.
	Well, you complain a lot.
	Okay.
	Well, let's jump to another topic, since we might as well.
	I didn't realize it, but it's all over the news.
	World War III has broken out.
	Oh, okay.
	So, do I need to get my guns and my MREs?
	No.
	Oh.
	But you have to go into rationing and all these other things, because the unseen enemy is carbon.
	Oh.
	All right, here we go.
	Well, our next guest writes in The New Republic about, quote, a world at war.
	We are under attack from climate change, and our only hope is to mobilize like we did in World War II. Quote, day after day, week after week, saboteurs behind our lines are unleashing a series of brilliant and overwhelming attacks.
	In the past few months, our foes have used a firestorm to force the total evacuation of a city of 90,000 in Canada, drought to ravage crops to the point where southern Africans are literally eating their seed corn, and floods to threaten the priceless repository of art in the Louvre.
	Our guest goes on to write, the enemy is even deploying biological weapons to spread psychological terror.
	The Zika virus loaded like a bomb into a growing army of mosquitoes has shrunk the heads of newborn babies across an entire continent.
	Panicked health ministers in seven countries are now urging women not to get pregnant.
	And as in all conflicts, millions of refugees are fleeing the horrors of war, their numbers swelling daily as they're forced to abandon their homes to escape famine and desolation and disease.
	World War III is well and truly underway, and we are losing.
	Those are the words of Bill McKibben.
	Wow.
	That's World War III. Well, we are making strides in World War III, then.
	I have a clip here from Dr.
	Fauci.
	He's our friend, Dr.
	Fauci.
	You recall when the swine flu epidemic came around, when we was at H1N1, he was the guy that helped.
	We had, oh, we had to get the vaccines, you got to do stuff, and he had all the patents on the vaccines.
	You remember him?
	Oh, yeah.
	Yeah, that's right.
	Yeah, he's a cool guy, Mr.
	Fauci is.
	Yeah, he's right on the inside.
	This is something, and I do like these audio recordings.
	We're seeing that pop up more and more.
	You see that happening with the political candidates.
	We need more of this.
	These iPhones and your smartphones are good, people.
	You've got to record stuff.
	It's really, really worthwhile.
	So here's Fauci.
	And the idea is, I think this has been discussed on the show before, is to genetically modify the mosquito that carries the Zika virus, which is which one again, John?
	Some, I don't remember.
	But it's a specific mosquito found mostly in the southern states.
	So the idea is to genetically modify them so they no longer can...
	Basically, genocide.
	Genocide of this particular...
	Is that an insecticide, maybe?
	What would it be called?
	Insecticide!
	Insecticide, yes.
	They're performing insecticide on the...
	Well, whenever people talk about genetically modified anything, there's always a segment of the population that pushes back.
	Understandably so, and with some reason, but you don't want to deter the environment in an irreversible way that might have unintended consequences.
	But the idea of suppressing, particularly the A.D.S. egypties, a mosquito to the point where they would be infertile and not be able to procreate the breathing weight down, that can be done, at least as has been shown in pilot studies, by genetically modifying a mosquito.
	Even another thing that isn't exactly a genetic modification, when you infect mosquitoes with a bacteria called Walbachia that prevents them from being able to transmit a number of viral infections.
	If you're going to do that, you've got to do a test and an environmental impact to show that you're not going to have deleterious consequences.
	And in fact, the FDA has already given permission for, in a controlled way, to take a look at whether or not that would be effective and what the impact would be.
	So I think there is a future for genetic research.
	What's your personal feeling about it?
	I think we should try whatever we have at our armamentarium tools.
	To suppress mosquitoes that are the cause of diseases, such as fever and other diseases.
	You will never completely, nor should you, eliminate all mosquitoes, but there's a certain subset, as Anne said.
	The 80s Egyptian mosquito is a bad actor.
	So if we were able to suppress, if not eliminate, these egypties, I don't think there's going to be an environmental impact that's profound at all.
	I think there are so many other mosquitoes that will take their place that you won't have to worry about that.
	But that particular mosquito is terrible.
	It bites indoors, it bites outdoors, and the other thing about it is that unlike other mosquitoes, it just loves humans.
	It doesn't like it.
	It doesn't get distracted.
	It's not a traviscuous mosquito.
	And that's a bad thing.
	I don't know if you could hear all of that.
	It was a little roomy.
	Pretty bad.
	Yeah, so very aware that people are against genetically modifying anything.
	I don't understand.
	So they got their $1.1 billion.
	That was a part of the continuation bill.
	So the government stays open until December 9th.
	So they got the money, but what are they going to do?
	Is it going to insecticide the mosquito?
	What happened to the...
	It's not even really genetic engineering.
	He says it's just infect the thing with some bacteria that I guess...
	Yeah, what could possibly go wrong?
	Everyone gets tuberculosis the next day.
	So many different things.
	But why?
	Why not work on a vaccine?
	Isn't that the main idea, to work on a vaccine?
	We've known about Zika since 1956.
	We have a sample.
	Or the Rockefeller Foundation has a sample from 1956.
	I mean, this doesn't seem like a real problem.
	I think they're going to do the vaccine because there's too much money involved.
	You have to do that.
	It's a big moneymaker.
	This other thing is just another money grab to eliminate the mosquito, which is probably not a bad idea if they can actually do it.
	I have a clip of an update of the Hoboken thing, which happened on our shift.
	Yes, and I still have no real update from our producer, whose dad works there, although everyone remains finding it very strange.
	Yeah, as anyone listened to the last show, during our shift, this train wreck happened, and it was suspected to be terrorism, which is not coming up in the conversation.
	I think largely because any terrorist act that happens is going to be...
	Thought of as anything else because we don't want Trump getting elected.
	Right.
	I believe that to be the case.
	Yeah, so it cannot be terrorism is what you're saying.
	So we have this...
	Anyway, so here's the update as we now know...
	This is more or less the update.
	Next to new developments tonight after that rush hour nightmare just outside New York City in Hoboken, New Jersey, the train crashing into the station.
	The train did so much damage to that station, the recorder and a camera at the front are still out of reach.
	ABC's David Curley is at the scene again tonight for us.
	More scenes tonight of the moments after the crash.
	Passengers bleeding, dazed.
	A train bell sounding.
	And that lead car which slammed through the stop bumper flying into the platform.
	The damage so significant, investigators can't get to all the wreckage.
	Only one data recorder has been recovered, which has been sent to the manufacturer to read out the data.
	The train headed south at 7.23 in the morning.
	Just after 8, cameras catch it operating normally.
	But 40 minutes later, ending its trip, it crashes into the Hoboken station.
	The speed limit entering the station is 10 miles an hour, but some suggest the speed was three times that before it crashed.
	Despite the impact, the engineer was found slumped over the controls.
	Hoboken is in the process of extricating the engineer who is trapped.
	He's out of the hospital, has been in contact with investigators, but has not been interviewed today.
	48-year-old Thomas Gallagher has been with New Jersey Transit for 29 years.
	New details of the only fatality, a mother, 34-year-old Fabiola Bittar Dacroon, who had just dropped her child off at daycare.
	Ramon Perkins, who ran into the station after the crash, talked to our Amy Robach.
	You actually held her when she was taking her final breaths?
	I was like, miss, I'm not going to leave you.
	I'm not going to let you.
	If you're going to die, you're not going to die by yourself right now.
	I'm going to be here with you.
	And David Curley with us tonight, and they've recovered one data recorder as you reported there, David, but they can't get to the other or that all-important front-facing camera that you told us about last night here?
	That's correct, but they do have other video, David.
	They've recovered from the station.
	They won't characterize what they've seen on any of these videos.
	As for the engineer, bodily fluids are being sent for a toxicology report, and the electronic devices of all the crew members are being examined.
	David Curley on the scene there in Hoboken for us again tonight.
	David, thank you.
	No real information.
	Well, what I do not like is, I mean, what's going to happen here, if it's not terrorism, this poor schmuck, who has not been interviewed for some crazy reason, he's going to get the blame.
	Maybe.
	It could happen.
	It cannot be terrorism.
	In fact, I've already been reading, this is so funny, I've been reading reports saying, well, you know, we should probably have the Viper teams, that's TSA, Viper, We should probably have them, you know, checking people and, you know, going through a checkpoint when you get onto the train, because it's all very dangerous.
	Which completely counteracts President Obama's words.
	Of course I do.
	Imagine boarding a train in the center of a city.
	No racing to an airport and across a terminal.
	No delays.
	No sitting on the tarmac.
	No lost luggage.
	No taking off your shoes.
	Yeah!
	All aboard!
	Train's good, plane's bad.
	Woo-hoo!
	Yeah.
	All right.
	We haven't heard anything about the high-speed rail and these kind of promotions that went on about three or four years ago.
	Although, it's because these deals have already been signed and they're done and we have this situation in San Francisco, California and throughout California for the high-speed rail to Los Angeles.
	LA, yeah.
	Even though it goes into the Central Valley and really the only stretch looks like it's going to be Fresno to Bakersfield or something like that.
	What's in Bakersfield?
	The jail?
	Isn't that the federal penitentiary is there?
	That's about it.
	I have no idea.
	It makes nothing but sense.
	A high-speed train to the jail.
	Get on the train!
	Good to go.
	I don't think we need to do a full tech news segment, but I do want to mention a few things.
	One, it turns out Yahoo was incorrect.
	It was not a state sponsor who hacked their entire email system.
	It was a cybercrime gang, according to some other security firm.
	Yeah, but that makes a lot more sense.
	Yeah, of course it does.
	State sponsor wants to get to this Yahoo database.
	It's a great thing.
	If you get hacked, all you have to say is, state sponsored, man.
	State sponsored.
	Therefore, you're no longer culpable.
	State sponsored.
	Of course, ICANN has now officially transferred to the International Radio Television Union.
	That is the names and numbers that is a part of the DNS system.
	I think they did have a proposal.
	But members of the Federal Communications Commission could not agree on a set-top box proposal that requires cable operators to provide their shows and movies on alternative devices rather than just on a cable box.
	Yeah, I got news for you.
	This is not going to happen.
	Television companies and cable television companies will hold on to this for as long as they can.
	Well, wait a minute.
	I don't even believe it's true.
	I have Comcast.
	And I don't have a cable box, and I can run it through my sling box instead, or I can run it into any number of devices.
	And so far as the modem is concerned, for my Comcast internet, I long since gave them their modem back, and I have my own modem I put on a Motorola.
	And they were all fine with it.
	I think it's different.
	This is specifically about the content.
	So in the case you're talking about, you should be able to receive Dancing with the Stars on an alternative device, on all alternative devices, let me put it that way.
	I can do that.
	Live?
	Yeah.
	Not all devices?
	No way.
	When my old VHS recorder will pick it up, I'm pretty sure I haven't tried it.
	You understand what they're trying to do.
	You can argue it, but what they're trying to do is they're trying to unbundle the programming from the network.
	And the networks will never do that.
	That's really what they're trying to do.
	You're not a network.
	Forget stations.
	You have content, and that should be available on all platforms, not just through the cable.
	Does that make sense?
	No?
	Okay.
	Are you saying, is the goal here to unbundle like the HBO from Showtime?
	Instead of, because right now Comcast will have a deal, but you just like the sports deal.
	You get this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, and this for, you know, X amount of money.
	You can't just pull one out.
	Hmm.
	Thank you.
	Is that what this is about?
	I can't pull out my ESPN and just get that instead of all this other crap?
	Well, again, I'm telling you exactly what they say.
	The plan was intended to bring more competition to the television industry and liberate consumers from an average of $231 in annual cable box fees.
	So it's probably multiple tier where you should be able to pick and choose what you want in a package and you should be able to get that outside of your cable company's device.
	Yeah, well, that's never going to happen.
	It's never going to happen.
	No, it's not.
	But there's a lot of noise about it.
	But the fees for the cable box, I think, is academic.
	Could be.
	Yeah, could be.
	Because, like I said, I don't have a cable box, and I get all these channels.
	Well, you also have DirecTV.
	No, I have the Dish.
	Oh, Dish, I'm sorry.
	Hey, you got your ESPN with the Dish, don't you?
	I have, yes, I do.
	I have had both DirecTV and the Dish, and the Dish is better.
	Right.
	Well, I'll tell you.
	I watched football yesterday.
	What football did you watch?
	UT versus OSU? Oh, yeah.
	That would be the game you would watch there.
	Yeah.
	UT lost again.
	We got trounced, yeah.
	But it was that kid from Oklahoma State who just kept running the ball.
	I just kept scoring touchdown after touchdown.
	Who was that guy?
	I don't know.
	He's good, though.
	Oh, man.
	Beautiful.
	Alright, so that's our tech and our sports news.
	Got a thing to play us out, Johnny Boy?
	Yeah, I do.
	I have a couple things.
	We need to do an India-Pakistan-Kashmir update.
	Ah, yes, yes.
	Or, I'm thinking, the Japanese pregnant man.
	Oh, can we do both?
	Okay.
	Start with the India thing so we get that.
	The other one's funny.
	In Kashmir, Pakistan is vowing to defend itself against what it calls Indian aggression after two of its soldiers were killed in cross-border fighting Thursday.
	India says it launched surgical strikes against militants in the disputed line of control region between Indian and Pakistani controlled Kashmir.
	Pakistan's prime minister called an emergency cabinet meeting over the latest fighting, which comes less than two weeks after an attack on an Indian army base killed 18 soldiers.
	India has ordered the evacuation of thousands of people in villages near its border with Pakistan.
	Yeah, this is a mess.
	And why now?
	Why does this all of a sudden get sparked up?
	Actually, I have a report that I'd like to add to this because I had the clip.
	We didn't play it.
	This is, you know, India was calling the surgical strikes, which, of course, is code.
	Tensions threatened to boil over in Kashmir after India carried out what it called surgical strikes along the de facto border with Pakistan.
	A senior army spokesman said the operation had inflicted significant casualties on Pakistan-based militants he claimed were planning a series of attacks.
	The Indian army conducted surgical strikes last night at these launch pads.
	During these counter-terrorist operations, Significant casualties have been caused to the terrorists and those who are trying to support them.
	But the military assault prompted a furious reaction from Islamabad.
	While it denied any strikes had been carried out over the border, it confirmed two Pakistani soldiers had been killed and nine others wounded in the crossfire along the line of control.
	The latest strikes follow a deadly attack against an Indian army base in Kashmir earlier this month.
	That left 18 soldiers dead.
	India blamed Pakistan for the assault.
	Something.
	It's denied.
	You know, this is such an old story.
	They bring this back.
	And I can only think it has to do with weapon sales.
	It must be something that we're doing.
	Because, I mean, really, the Kashmir region is just...
	How many people live there?
	Like 50,000 people live there?
	No, I think it's more than that.
	Crazy low amount.
	So, you know, whose side are we on?
	Who do we need to sell something to?
	Well, we're supposed to be on Pakistan's side in anything that has to do with India.
	And the Russians are the ones that usually sell to India in a...
	Long-term sense.
	Oh, I got it.
	Gee, this was easy.
	One Google search.
	Okay, so the question is...
	Oil pipelines.
	Close.
	Very close.
	So, the question is, why is this happening now?
	We know that there's historical strife about this region between India and Pakistan.
	We pretty much always think it's about oil or guns or something else.
	Well, here it is.
	From September 28th.
	Russia's new approach to Pakistan.
	It's all about arms sales.
	There you go.
	Russia's selling to Pakistan.
	We'll sell to India.
	That's it.
	That's a switcheroo.
	Switch and rolls.
	But it's an interesting one.
	It's probably because we've been screwing around so much with Russia and we probably stole a bunch of business from them in India.
	So they decided to go to Pakistan, which is our stronghold of sales, and move in on our territory.
	Well, so either way, it works either way.
	Maybe we're just like, oh, you got problems now.
	Well, you need our stuff.
	Looks like they were set up to buy SU-35s.
	So that's their jets, right?
	Yeah, that's a good jet.
	Yeah, that's a nice jet.
	Here we go.
	Oh, we have the money here.
	Oh, I love this.
	It's like shooting fish in a barrel.
	1994 to 2004, India purchased approximately $11.43 billion worth of defense equipment from Russia.
	That was India.
	After the India-U.S. nuclear agreement, arms exports from Russia to India were $20 billion.
	Holy crap.
	From 99 to 2003, India received 23% of Russian defense exports.
	Jeez Louise.
	So they're trying to do both sides now?
	We gotta look into this.
	Yeah, of course.
	The thing is, they still both have nukes and they can start blowing each other up.
	And also China.
	Oh, I get it.
	It makes nothing but sense.
	China's also, it appears, trying to sell their stuff to Pakistan.
	Yeah, well, so it's basically an arms sale bonanza, and whatever kicked it off, or whoever kicked it off, it's time to go in and sell.
	Sell, sell, sell.
	So easy.
	This is, like, so easy.
	What a world.
	Well, a world where we're just overarmed.
	Well, there's that.
	All right.
	And those jets don't stay, you know, they need a lot of maintenance.
	Maintenance, yeah.
	That's a billion dollars a year in other.
	Other.
	It's always listed as other.
	Alright, let's finish off with the pregnant guy.
	This is kind of a novelty story.
	I think it's somewhat, you know, there's issues with women versus men physiologically, which makes it women are kind of built to carry a baby in some, you know, because that's the, they're just structured differently because they have to carry these heavy babies around.
	And I will say that the bone structure of women is different enough.
	You see them bending over where men can't do that.
	If you're a bowler, you know that because of the arm structure of a woman, her natural bowling release is a backup ball, goes in the opposite direction of a man's hook.
	And there's all these issues.
	This is not taken into account in the story at all.
	It's just the whole thing is like, well, that's what if a man had to carry a baby?
	And so they outfitted this idiot with the baby, essentially.
	Ah!
	To make a point?
	Is that it?
	Yeah.
	Well, here's the story.
	And several governors in Japan have joined a campaign for men to shoulder the burden of childcare and housework, literally.
	A new video shows them wearing 16-pound vests to simulate being seven months pregnant.
	After grocery shopping, hoofing upstairs, and folding laundry, one says he finally understands what his wife put up with.
	In Japan, women do five times the housework that men do.
	God, for 25 years, they've been growing babies and cows!
	That's right.
	Ah, those Japanese, I tell you.
	Yeah, they're cards.
	Yeah, they are.
	Ace in the hole.
