	Hey, we got a donor from Nigeria.
	Adam Curry, John C. Devorak.
	And Sunday, October 30th, 2016, this is your award-winning Gitmo Nation Media Assassination, Episode 873.
	This is No Agenda.
	Kicking off year 10 and broadcasting live from the capital of the Drone Star State here in Austin, Tejas, being in Region 6.
	In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley where Aristotle say, woman who play chess for sex may have checkered past.
	I'm John C. DeVore.
	It's Crackpot and Buzzkill.
	In the morning.
	That Aristotle, I never knew that dude had it in him.
	Sounds just like Confucius.
	It does.
	Yeah, it's amazing that way.
	All philosophers have these ditties.
	Indeed.
	Hey, good morning to you, John.
	Welcome to year 10.
	Hey!
	Welcome to you!
	Year what?
	10, I tell ya!
	10!
	Alright.
	And...
	It's amazing, but only in America can we in a presidential election follow up Pussygate with Wienergate.
	I mean, come on.
	Do we have great writers in this country or what?
	Wienergate.
	I'm telling you.
	It's amazing.
	It's amazing how this happens.
	He keeps on giving.
	He does keep on giving.
	I love this guy.
	Yeah.
	So I didn't put it in the clip list, but I sent you the Joe Biden thing.
	Yeah.
	Drunk or not drunk?
	Yes.
	Yeah.
	What did you think?
	Did you record it?
	No, I just sent it to you.
	Oh, okay, I have it.
	Hold on, let me play it for you.
	He's slurring the whole time.
	I know what he says at the very end.
	Don't blow it for everybody.
	I don't know what he said.
	Wait a minute, I thought I had this.
	Wait, did I not record that?
	Yeah, here we go.
	I'll play it for you.
	What should happen now?
	I think it's unfortunate.
	I think Hillary, if she said what I'm told she said, is correct.
	She should release the emails for the whole world to see.
	The whole world to see.
	They can continue their investigation.
	To the best of my knowledge, it won't prejudice the investigation.
	But that's sort of the stilted language the agency always uses.
	And it doesn't mean anything.
	It's unfortunate.
	I'd be remiss if I didn't note that if she had released all the emails from the get-go, we wouldn't be having this conversation.
	Well, that's true.
	But I don't know where these emails came from.
	Apparently, Anthony Weiner.
	Well, oh, God.
	Wait for it.
	Anthony Weiner.
	I should not come in at Anthony Weiner.
	I'm not a big fan.
	And I wasn't before he got in trouble, so I shouldn't come in at Anthony Weiner.
	There it is.
	It's very hard to hear at the very end.
	But he already sounds a little...
	He looks glassy-eyed.
	At the end, he says, Anthony Weiner.
	Anthony Weiner.
	And I wasn't before he got in trouble, so I shouldn't come in at Anthony Weiner.
	One more question.
	Anthony Weiner.
	Anthony Weiner.
	Well, the question, I'll put it to you then, John, is very simple.
	Was he drunk or not drunk?
	He's totally drunk.
	He's plastered.
	Yes, he's plastered.
	Because, you know, Joe, he's very functional.
	He's very, very functional when he's sauced up.
	He's a functional drunk.
	Yeah, which I don't, I never like that word, you know, that description.
	Oh, I'm a functional drug addict.
	Yeah.
	What does that mean?
	Come up with a substitute and I'd gladly swap that word out.
	I don't know what it means.
	It's good.
	It's good.
	Before we get into clips, because of course there's a lot of them, and I mean, thank you, thank you, thank you, Director Comey of FBI, for bringing me so much entertainment.
	It was so fun to see the sad faces, the exploding heads, the anger, the dismay.
	It's just wonderful.
	It's just so much fun.
	Right when we needed some ratings.
	And a couple of things we should know, and we've got a couple of reports that we'll play for people who don't know what the heck we're talking about.
	Yeah, okay.
	As a quick wrap, apparently Anthony Weiner, they're still investigating him for sexting With a kid.
	Yes.
	So they grabbed his laptop.
	They found some other stuff on it that apparently had to do with something.
	I guess it's on the shared.
	Well, I've looked into a lot.
	I also have some FBI information that may not have been published yet, depending on when you listen to this.
	It is not uncommon at all for people to use the same laptop, a Macintosh specifically.
	And I'm just going to think it's a Mac.
	I don't know.
	Use a Mac?
	Yeah, because Mac people tend to do this more often where they share each other.
	It just seems to be a thing.
	It's informal.
	I have no data.
	But using two accounts on a Mac is very easy.
	And now with the new touch bar, it's a touch and automatic sign-in.
	It's great!
	What I heard, though, what I heard...
	First of all, I'm going to presume that I know what's going on, and it is that a portion, if not all, of the deleted emails about yoga and other personal fun stuff showed up in this secondary investigation, which we can't really discount, but Anthony Weiner's being investigated for pedophilia as a sex offender.
	And so that's apparently what that investigation was about.
	out they found the laptop but they found these emails in the folder titled life insurance where'd you get that From my informants.
	I told you this is not out yet.
	You have a good informant for this one.
	Yeah, and so I'm going to think that this has always been, certainly for Anthony Weiner, I don't even know if Uma...
	Did anything necessary?
	I mean, she broke the law for sure.
	She's in big trouble.
	But Wiener, you know, I've said from day one, this guy's going to suicide himself.
	And they will never divorce.
	And this is not brought up in anything I've heard.
	If they actually divorce, then he can testify against her.
	And she could testify against him.
	If they remain married, there's no obligation to do that.
	This is all...
	These things are all playing...
	Yeah, it sounds logical.
	Then you'd have your life insurance.
	And maybe we should just back up and just explain once more the relationship between the Clintons and the Wieners.
	And again, by the way, Hillary really needs to become president so she can pardon.
	Pardon, of course.
	Pardon everybody.
	Now, I met Anthony Wiener.
	I worked with him years ago when he was still councilman in New York.
	I don't think I need to rehash the whole thing.
	The guy was a dick then.
	I'm sure he's a dick now.
	Well, I don't think Biden liked him even before the scandal, he said.
	Well, so the way I've always seen this is Uma has been with Hillary for two decades.
	There's enough speculation that they are lovers.
	That is kind of irrelevant, but the closeness is very relevant.
	And in our theory, when they are lovers, then we have Wiener and he's the beard.
	And the beard gets paid off in a number of great ways.
	First of all, he's an asset.
	He was a congressman.
	And he was Chuck Schumer's boy.
	He was on track to become a senator.
	The Clintons, I think not only hosted, but Bill Clinton officiated Anthony and Uma's wedding.
	And the whole thing was, just shut up.
	Just follow along.
	You're going to be senator.
	You're in the network.
	And because...
	You're good to go.
	Well, yeah, you're good to go.
	When you have no sex with your wife or whatever the frustration is, as certainly guys, this is what's going to happen.
	And he's an idiot and he got caught.
	Three times.
	When you get caught three times, that's a cry for help.
	And everybody's really hypocritical, of course, because I think that a lot of people do the stuff that he's doing.
	But it doesn't matter.
	He got caught.
	And because he was really caught once, twice, three times, he knew that there was a target on his head.
	He's a big problem.
	And that's why he had these emails in a folder called Life Insurance.
	Now, what's in these emails, I can only imagine.
	But there's a lot of people talking about possibilities, for sure.
	Let me see.
	Where would you like to start?
	Well, I think we should start with one of the rundowns.
	Yeah, I'm sure you have a good background.
	I have two of them.
	All right.
	Good.
	Let's try the one from ABC for starters, because that's more commercial.
	Okay.
	Breakdown from ABC. Tom Yamas with us again tonight.
	Tom, thank you.
	Let's bring in ABC Chief Legal Analyst Dan Abrams for one more question on this.
	This isn't for later.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	No, it's okay.
	I haven't found myself yet.
	Oh, FBI, Clinton, ABC. I got it.
	You didn't print your clip list, did you?
	What?
	You didn't print your clip list.
	No, I did.
	I'm looking at it now.
	Got it.
	it here it is tonight with that fbi bombshell as i mentioned there are just 11 days until this election and millions of americans are already voting and today with hillary clinton in the air flying to iowa where the race is tied the news breaks the fbi director revealing new emails have now been discovered and will now be investigated they were discovered while looking into a separate case involving anthony weiner and his alleged sexting scandal His estranged wife is longtime Clinton aide Huma Abedin.
	She and her husband shared a device and honored authorities say thousands of emails.
	The FBI saying it cannot assess whether the emails, quote, may be significant, but they're going to look.
	ABC senior justice correspondent Pierre Thomas tonight.
	Hillary Clinton stepping off that plane today into a political nightmare.
	Many reactions.
	Ignoring reporter questions about those newly discovered emails.
	Her campaign stunned.
	ABC News has learned it all began inside the FBI yesterday morning.
	The firestorm set in motion during a highly confidential briefing by FBI Director James Comey with senior agents.
	Those agents came to him with explosive information that new emails had been discovered.
	Comey decides further investigation is needed, and even though there's no evidence of wrongdoing by Clinton, the director decides he has to tell Congress.
	And today, less than 24 hours later, with Clinton in the air flying to Iowa, Director Comey drops the bombshell in a letter to Congress.
	Writing, in connection with an unrelated case, the FBI has learned of the existence of emails that appear to be pertinent to the investigation.
	He goes on to say they will determine whether they contain classified information and stresses that the FBI cannot yet assess whether or not this material may be significant.
	And he says he cannot predict how long it will take to complete the investigation.
	And then the second stunner.
	Late today we learned the investigation was reopened because of a criminal probe into Anthony Weiner and an alleged underage sexting case.
	During that investigation, emails were discovered on a device shared by him and his estranged wife, longtime Clinton aide Uma Abedin.
	I've got information, man.
	New shit has come to light.
	Oh, yes, it has.
	Something important about the note that was sent.
	Well, actually, there's two things that are important.
	One is, and we have, of course, lots of lawyers who listen to the show and participate.
	The key word in Comey's letter is pertinent.
	It is a legal term.
	Pertinent.
	And here is the definition applicable.
	Relevant evidence is called pertinent when it is directed to the issue or matters in dispute and legitimately tends to prove the allegations of the party offering it.
	Otherwise, it is called impertinent.
	So for Comey, a lawyer, in a legal case, to use the word pertinent, which I've not heard anyone deconstruct this word.
	Every lawyer knows this.
	Pertinent, which means he has evidence which is directed to the issues or matters in the dispute.
	No one's talking about it.
	Well, we are.
	Oh, yes, of course we are.
	Of course we are.
	The...
	There seem to be some talking points that floated around.
	I got one.
	Yeah, I got one.
	I want to hear yours.
	This is a great talking point.
	This is a failed talking point.
	Democratic Congressman Tim Ryan.
	The failed one should be funny.
	So here's the talking point is in here.
	And then I caught it as a talking point.
	First, I heard it on ABC. Then I caught it as a talking point on PBS. The clip here is the new Hillary email breakdown.
	Okay.
	We're listening for The Talking Point.
	Tom Yamos with us again tonight.
	Tom, thank you.
	Let's bring in ABC Chief Legal Analyst Dan Abrams for one more question on this.
	No question, Dan, this is a political bombshell, but any indication yet that this is going to be a legal bombshell?
	That's much more of a long shot.
	Remember that when Director Comey decided not to indict Hillary Clinton, he made it clear it's not enough to just have classified information on an email.
	It has to have been intentionally mishandling classified information or obstruction of justice or disloyalty to the country.
	So that legal standard still exists.
	It has to be linked back to Hillary Clinton.
	And as he said in this statement today, the FBI cannot yet assess whether or not this material may be significant.
	Well, let me play the backup clip first to show that this legal question has been put in a talking point memo.
	Play the PBS clip.
	This is very short.
	Okay.
	But no one knows, and I suspect not even the FBI really knows at this point, is it a big deal legally?
	Does it have a legal consequence?
	It will almost certainly have a political consequence, but it's not clear at all yet that this will have a legal consequence.
	And how long do they think this is going to take to go through these?
	Yeah, this could have a...
	A legal consequence.
	Well, somebody's putting out the word that it won't.
	Yeah, hold on.
	Hold on.
	I have two clips relevant to this.
	Hold on a second.
	This is...
	Let me see.
	Former Attorney General...
	No.
	Let's start with this one.
	Sean Bigley...
	Yes, Sean Bigley.
	Is that the guy Trump's always talking about?
	It should be.
	It's L-E-Y. I don't know.
	I like it a lot.
	Actually, I'll start with former Attorney General Michael Mukasey.
	And he says, look, look, hear me now, believe me later, she has disqualified herself to be President of the United States.
	I think the more dangerous part of this, from her standpoint, is not so much the placement of the material there as wiping the server.
	Because there are other statutes that deal with what happens to you if you are a custodian of public records and you...
	Among other things, alter them or obliterate them.
	And number one, that's a felony, but that statute disqualifies you from holding any further office under the United States.
	And she's running for a further office under the United States.
	You're saying there are statutes on the books now that would prohibit that?
	Title 18-2071.
	There you go.
	18 U.S. Code 2071.
	And so this could explain maybe what's happened.
	If indeed emails that were previously not turned over to FBI contained State Department information, then they were destroyed.
	Although, of course, we now found a backup and that would fall under code 18 U.S. Code 2071.
	Whoever willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, or destroys, or attempts to do so, or with intent to do so, takes and carries away any record, proceeding, map, book, paper, document, or other thing, filed or deposited with any, it goes on and on.
	Anything, you do anything wrong with classified documents, you break this law.
	You break this U.S. code.
	There is a...
	So here's Sean Bigley.
	This is the lawyer.
	Lawyer!
	And very interesting, all of these statutes, all of these laws that Hillary Clinton may have broken were actually put into effect under executive order from Bill Clinton.
	You know, security clearance law is governed exclusively by executive orders and regulations.
	It's not a statutory creature.
	And ironically, one of the primary executive orders that governs this area, Executive Order 12968, was signed in 1995 by President Bill Clinton.
	Now, the irony here is, as a result of that executive order, we have what's now referred to as the National Adjudicative Guidelines for Security Clearances.
	In essence, it's 13 categories under which someone could be deemed unfit for access to classified information.
	Those categories include things like foreign influence, mental health, financial problems, anything that would perhaps impact someone's As I said, honesty, reliability, judgment.
	And those adjudicated guidelines apply uniformly across all federal agencies, including the Executive Office of the President.
	If you read the adjudicative guidelines, which I happen to bring with me, they leave very little room for ambiguity, especially as it pertains to the type of misconduct that Mrs.
	Clinton is alleged to have committed.
	And I'll read you a little bit of a sample here.
	This is the adjudicative guideline K for handling of protected information.
	It says, the concern, deliberate or negligent failure to comply with rules and regulations for protecting classified or other sensitive information raises doubt about an individual's trustworthiness, judgment, reliability, In part,
	negligent disclosure of classified or other protected information to unauthorized persons.
	Collecting or storing classified information or other protected information on any unauthorized location.
	Loading, drafting, editing, modifying, storing, etc., etc.
	The list goes on and on.
	Also relevant in this case is guideline M. Use of information technology systems.
	That includes all computer hardware, software, firmware, etc.
	And conditions that erase a security concern and may be disqualifying include...
	Downloading, storing, or transmitting classified information on or to any unauthorized software, hardware, or information technology system.
	Again, not a lot of ambiguity there.
	Not a lot of ambiguity.
	So it doesn't even matter what's in those emails.
	Well, you know, this came up when it was first revealed.
	People kept citing this.
	I mean, all the talk show guys.
	And Comey just overlooked it.
	Right.
	He says, there's got to be this intent, intent, intent.
	And if you remember that first clip I just played, the thing that I wanted to point out about that clip after we started to wrap this up is the new element that seems to have been added to...
	And I believe they've added this, I think somebody added this for the purposes of getting her.
	And it was like, you intend, Tacoma said you had to intend something else.
	Intent, yeah, I had to have intent, yes.
	And there was another one, and then this one here, which I've never heard before, and you can play that clip again, it's pretty short, just to hear it, but it's disloyalty to the country.
	You mean the PBS one?
	Yeah.
	No, no, no.
	No, the ABC one.
	Disloyalty to the country.
	You've never heard that before, have you?
	Well, I've heard it in a different form.
	People saying, treasonous, treason, treason.
	Yeah, but that's not what Colby ever said.
	No, he never said that.
	There was a...
	No one briefed the congressman from Ohio, Tim Ryan, Democrat, that the talking points had changed, so he tried to pull out an old one, resulting in an epic fail.
	Well, as I said, I don't think it's going to have a whole lot of effect on the current electorate, but I will say this.
	Where have these documents, where did they come from?
	How did the FBI get to them?
	Where are they?
	We have all this stuff going on with Russia right now that we don't really even know if some have been manipulated or not manipulated.
	Why didn't the FBI have these documents through all of the different investigations that they went through on this, where the FBI said that, you know, she didn't do anything wrong, that it may be careless, but that was it, and that there would have had to have been this huge conspiracy of 300 people in the State Department that would have been conspiring.
	That's just a fraction of the conspiracy, my girl.
	You know, release confidential information.
	Why didn't it come up in all of this?
	Hillary Clinton has been thoroughly vetted on this issue.
	The FBI chose not to do anything with the information.
	And we have all moved on.
	So the question is, where did these documents come from?
	How did they get to the FBI? Is Russia involved in this?
	We don't have any clue of where this stuff is coming from.
	We have a big clue where it's coming from, you idiot.
	He didn't read the memo.
	These guys are so lax.
	You know they get memos.
	I think on every other show we've had one of these boneheads.
	Anyway, I want to get back to this disloyalty to the country thing, which has been added to the laundry list.
	I think it's been added because, as I listened to all the way Oh, actually, I think I have a clip.
	This is Democracy Now!
	And this is a clip of...
	This is a rundown on the emails, not the ones that were just revealed, because we don't have them, the ones from the Anthony Weiner group.
	And I just want to point out the tactic of saying, show us the emails, FBI! That can't happen.
	They know that.
	It's under active investigation.
	Yeah, it's a bluff.
	It's a total bluff.
	Be careful, I'd say.
	You never know.
	Well, I think it'd be funny if they did.
	Now, Amy Goodman comes out with, you know, because there are everyone, some of these alternative news media are actually looking at some of the stuff from WikiLeaks and the Podesta emails, which, you know, we've looked at it.
	But it's like there's a lot of stuff to go through.
	She's come up with some new, three new things.
	And one of them, just coincidentally, I don't think she's aware of it, I think involves disloyalty to the country.
	In election news, hacked emails from the accounts of Hillary Clinton's campaign chair, John Podesta, show several of her top aides were privately concerned about how the actions of the Clinton Foundation could impact her campaign.
	Campaign manager Robbie Muck sent one email with the subject line of foundation vulnerability points.
	In the email, he listed three points, quote, money from foreign governments, overseas events with foreign leaders or government officials, and potential conflicts from overseas-owned organizations, parentheses, UK and Sweden.
	The Clinton Foundation raised $26 million from the Swedish government.
	At the same time, the government was lobbying Hillary Clinton's State Department to not sanction Swedish businesses from working with Iran.
	The Swedish telecommunications giant Ericsson had sold Iran equipment that could be used to track its citizens.
	Meanwhile, another hacked email, written by one of Bill Clinton's closest aides, shows how former President Clinton has personally profited from work tied to the foundation.
	The aide, Doug Band, writes that he helped secure $50 million in speaking fees and other ventures that went directly to Bill Clinton.
	In the email, Band described the for-profit activity of President Clinton as, quote, Meanwhile, in another hacked email, Chelsea Clinton accused her father's aides of taking, quote, significant sums of money from my parents personally.
	Yeah, which you heard on no agenda first weeks ago.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Because we read the emails.
	I'm thinking that deal with the Swedes to allow them to do the trade with Iran, which is not kosher.
	Which I will remind you, the deal with the Swedes was from the Swedish lottery.
	Remember?
	Yeah.
	They got it from the lottery.
	Directly from the people.
	So this is an example of disloyalty to the country.
	Hmm.
	Um...
	Carl Bernstein.
	And I have a response clip to Carl Bernstein, of course.
	We've talked about him a couple times.
	He apparently wrote the definitive book on the Clintons.
	That's the way he's introduced continuously.
	I believe he's hired by CNN. Here was his initial response.
	Carl Bernstein is on the phone with me.
	And, Carl, we have been talking for months and months and months about this election.
	You wrote the definitive book on the Clintons, on Hillary Clinton...
	You've been saying that this is the drip, drip, drip that could ultimately haunt her.
	There's no question that the emails have always been the greatest threat to her candidacy for president, that her conduct in regard to the emails is really indefensible.
	And if there was going to be more information that came out, it is the one thing, as I said on the air last night actually, that could really perhaps affect this election.
	We don't know what this means yet, except that it's a real bombshell.
	And it is unthinkable that the director of the FBI would take this action lightly, that he would put this letter forth to the Congress of the United States saying that there is more information out there about classified emails and call it to the attention of the Congress unless it was something requiring serious investigation.
	So that's where we are.
	Is it a certainty that we won't learn before the election?
	I'm not sure it's a certainty that we won't learn before the election.
	One thing is, it's possible, I suppose, that Hillary Clinton might want to on her own initiative Talk to the FBI and find out what she can.
	And if she chooses to, let the American people know what she thinks or knows is going on.
	Because obviously people are going to need to hear from her.
	Yeah, I don't think that's going to happen, Carl.
	Well, not only that.
	Remember that whistleblower who gives his lungs to one of the NSA whistleblowers?
	I can't remember.
	One of the three or four guys who gives these speeches, he's still irked.
	He says, whatever you do in your entire life, never talk to the FBI. Right.
	Bad idea.
	Well, Bernstein came up in...
	I've got to inject some humor now.
	Bernstein came up in the panel discussion with Morning Joy, AM Joy, Joy Reid, MSNBC, the new superstar over there at MSNBC, and had Steve Cortez on, who I guess by then would be considered a Trump operative.
	Maybe they called him surrogate.
	I don't know.
	But probably operative.
	And he brings up the Bernstein comment.
	And just listen.
	When what we're really talking about is an aid to a politician printing things out for her boss.
	This is the talking point from MSNBC, John.
	She was just printing stuff out for her boss and just being a good little worker bee.
	And unfortunately being married to a creep.
	Oh, wow.
	Wow, wow, wow.
	I think then we could say Hillary Clinton is also unfortunately married to a creep, can't we?
	No, seriously.
	Yeah.
	I mean, you know, inserting cigars and stuff.
	Come on, the guy's a creep.
	So, all right.
	And, yeah.
	There's a lot of loaded stuff in there, you know, just calling someone's husband to creep like that.
	...out for her boss, and unfortunately being married to a creep.
	If that now becomes the basis to cast a broad, sweeping aspersion on somebody who could yet be President of the United States, politics only goes downhill from there, Steve.
	Is that the kind of politics you want to be a part of?
	Well, look, I think we do have to be careful.
	We don't know that a crime was committed, I suspect, but we don't know that.
	But when you say, by the way, this is something mundane...
	You can't believe it when he says, I suspect, you suspect!
	I love this.
	But when you say, by the way, this is something mundane, when you say it's mundane, let me tell you someone who doesn't agree, and it's not from me, it's not from the Trump camp, Carl Bernstein of Watergate fame, someone who knows quite a bit about...
	Do you hear that?
	Do you hear the panel laughing?
	Why are they laughing?
	Oh, Carl Bernstein.
	He's a moron.
	To me, it's not from the Trump camp.
	Carl Bernstein of Watergate fame, someone who knows quite a bit...
	This is just cracking up.
	They're just cracking up.
	They think it's hilarious.
	...of Watergate fame, someone who knows quite a bit about political scandal.
	Carl Bernstein said this is, quote, a bombshell.
	He said it is unthinkable that the director of the FBI would take this action lightly.
	So he believes it's a bombshell.
	I think most of the American public understands...
	I don't care what Carl Bernstein says.
	It is yet more evidence that Hillary Clinton is disqualified from serving as our commander in chief.
	Stop him!
	I think it's my turn.
	I think it's my turn.
	April, April.
	Now listen to this.
	This woman is great.
	It's my turn!
	It's my turn to take him on!
	Please.
	Yeah.
	You're witness.
	Go, go.
	The bottom line.
	The bottom line.
	Did she say you're witness?
	I don't know.
	She may have.
	I mean, I didn't hear that.
	You're witness.
	Yeah, she did.
	Oh, my God.
	Good catch.
	Oh, please.
	Yeah.
	You're witness.
	You're witness.
	All right.
	Here, the bottom line, the bottom line.
	Now, the FBI is supposed to be doing this secretively and going about their business instead of coming within an 11-day period to possibly change the election.
	That was wrong.
	That is going against procedure.
	No, stop.
	What procedure?
	Now we're talking about...
	Yeah, she says procedure.
	That's going against procedure.
	Procedure?
	Yeah, so this is what I've noticed.
	We have a lot of going against tradition, going against procedure.
	So going against tradition is releasing your taxes, which is not a requirement, but is going against tradition.
	And now we have, oh yes, going against tradition here.
	To possibly change the election.
	Going against procedure.
	That was wrong.
	That is going against procedure.
	And let's go back to something that James Comey said in July when he did say he was not going to charge Hillary Clinton.
	We have to remember that.
	That he said out of his own mouth that he would not charge Hillary Clinton.
	No, okay.
	And I need to insert this too.
	The FBI does not charge, does not indict, does not prosecute.
	And you can just hear the bullshit coming out of these people's mouths.
	FBI does not.
	They give a recommendation.
	It's the Department of Justice, Attorney General.
	It is not the FBI. He said, he said out of his own mouth that he would not charge Hillary Clinton.
	He also said, when you talk about this national security issue, he said that whatever she did, even though it was careless, he said she did not do anything malicious against this country or to aid other countries.
	John, there's your treason.
	We have to remember that as well when you try to bring in the issue of national security.
	So what is this really?
	The fact that they have a server, a former private server, a former president, and a former secretary of state.
	They can't use AOL. They can't use Google.
	They can't use the typical thing.
	What is she trying to say?
	Because you're elite and you can't use Google or AOL? Everyone seems to be doing it.
	They're all using Gmail.
	And hello, AOL. Hello, 1990.
	They can't use AOL. They can't use Google.
	They can't use the typical thing.
	It's not about the server.
	It's just about the fact of what could possibly have been in these emails.
	So am I right or wrong?
	You're wrong.
	You're wrong.
	I'm sorry.
	We are running out of time.
	I've got to give jokes.
	They go into a huge argument, but they're wrong.
	This morning, I caught two interviews of note.
	The first one with Robbie Mook, the campaign manager, who looks like he's about 12.
	Yes, he looks like he's about 12.
	Very young guy.
	He must be.
	Very effete.
	Effete?
	What does that mean?
	Effete?
	Effete.
	Effete Effete.
	That's good.
	I like it.
	We'll keep it.
	So the effete Mr.
	Robbie Mook has to admit that Hillary Clinton lied that this was only sent to Republicans.
	Which is what was immediately said.
	Immediately that was talking point number one.
	Oh, this only went to Republicans.
	Ha ha.
	Well, we know that this is corruption, collusion, conspiracy.
	However, unfortunately, that was not true.
	If they're going to be sending this kind of letter that is only...
	I'm not sure what this...
	I thought this was my Robbie Moo clip.
	Hold on.
	...Republican members that they...
	Robbie, why would she say something that...
	Ah, okay, I'm sorry.
	Now I know what I did.
	Here's Clinton lying and then the question to Robbie Mook.
	If they're going to be sending this kind of letter that is only going originally to Republican members of the House, that they need to share whatever facts they claim to have with the American people.
	Robbie, why would she say something that is so flatly untrue?
	I have a copy here.
	It's not very long.
	It's the letter that Comey sent to Congress.
	On the front page, it's got the eight Republican chairmen of the committees.
	If you just turn it over, next page, you've got the eight top Democrats on the committee.
	Why would she say that it was just sent to the Republicans when, in fact, it was sent to the Republicans and Democrats?
	What would you answer, John?
	I would answer, because I listened to what she said, she said it was first sent to the Republicans, which could be maybe by a millisecond, it could be by a minute or two, it could be by an hour.
	No, you're right.
	If you don't know.
	Certainly if you have to turn the page...
	Yeah, and this takes a long time to turn that page.
	You know, Chris, this has been really overhyped.
	Well, she said it, and I didn't.
	We were all surprised by this letter.
	She looked at the front page, and as you just said to yourself, on the front page of that memo, it lists those Republican shares.
	Were the Democrats cc'd at the end of the letter?
	Absolutely.
	She looked at the front page of the letter.
	She has acknowledged, we all acknowledge, this was sent to everybody.
	What we're concerned and disturbed by is that Director Comey sent a letter saying, we have some information.
	I don't know if it's significant.
	I don't know if it isn't.
	He didn't say where it came from.
	He didn't say what it was about.
	He didn't even say whether these emails were sent or received by Hillary Clinton.
	And furthermore, another hypothetical that's out there is that these are duplicates that have already been released.
	Director Comey owes it to the American people.
	Releasing this just a matter of days before the election to provide all the information.
	That's what we're asking.
	Just get all of it out there and the voters can judge for themselves.
	We think the voters actually want to hear about what these two candidates are going to do to make a difference in their lives.
	Sorry, Robbie.
	That doesn't work.
	And then the big scoop.
	Jake Tapper.
	Jake Tapper gets the man.
	Podesta on himself.
	This is the brains behind the operation.
	Let's listen.
	So, John, yesterday you slammed FBI Director Comey for going...
	Slammed.
	Really?
	When is this...
	Is this ever going to stop this slamming, this hammering, this all of this stuff?
	Hammering!
	So, John, yesterday you slammed FBI Director Comey for going, quote, long on innuendo, light on facts.
	But, frankly, for months, your campaign has been striking a very different note when it comes to Director Comey.
	Take a listen to Vice Presidential Candidate Tim Kaine just one week ago.
	What I do know is this, that there was an extensive, as you know, Brad, investigation by the FBI under the direction of a wonderful and tough career public servant, Jim Comey.
	Jim was in the U.S. Attorney's Office in the Eastern District of Virginia when I was the mayor.
	And he's somebody with the highest standards of integrity.
	I would say...
	Whoa!
	You got butt slapped!
	High standards of integrity, wonderful, tough, career public servant.
	How do you use those words and then call his actions on Friday into question?
	Well, Jake, look, this was an unprecedented action.
	It broke the policy of Democratic and Republican Justice Departments.
	It was done over the advice of senior Justice Department officials.
	And, you know, I think that the Justice Department has had a long tradition of not interfering in election.
	There's a tradition again, John.
	Tradition, tradition.
	We don't do this outside of procedure.
	11 days before the election.
	Interesting point.
	That's all they have to go on.
	Well, this is unprecedented.
	It works.
	It's not tradition.
	As I said yesterday, it was long on innuendo, short on facts.
	So we're calling on Mr.
	Comey to come forward.
	There was no innuendo.
	No, the facts were there.
	We found some emails.
	We've got to check them out.
	They could be pertinent to our investigation.
	Explain what's at issue here.
	You know, so far there's no charge of wrongdoing.
	There's no charge even that Hillary and the reporting that backs it up, coming from anonymous law enforcement sources, indicates it may not be about her server.
	It may not be about her at all.
	So I think this is something that has been tossed into the middle of a campaign.
	We would have preferred that that not happen, but now that it has happened, Mr.
	Comey really needs to come forward and explain why he took this unprecedented step, particularly when he said himself in the letter to the Hill that these may not even be significant.
	No, they may not even be significant.
	A quick entrement.
	That's honesty.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Why not?
	There's more, but an entremant, a quick one, 20 seconds of George Stephanopoulos and Donald Trump.
	When you look back over the sweep of this campaign, going back to last June...
	Is there anything you regret?
	Oh, absolutely.
	I'd love to have done certain things over, but you can't.
	You can't.
	But that's true in life.
	I'd love to have done in life certain things over, I guess.
	And you would have, too.
	Give me one.
	You would have loved not to have contributed to the Clinton Foundation, as an example.
	There are things that you wish you didn't do, okay?
	His face is priceless in that.
	Wow!
	You get Clip of the Day for that.
	Oh, thank you.
	Clip of the Day!
	Crack me up.
	He throws him a softball.
	What does he expect?
	So easy.
	Can you give me one example?
	Yeah, you donating to the Clinton Foundation.
	Ruh-roh!
	No, actually...
	I do have one more clip about Hillary.
	First of all, that deserves a...
	Do you want to hear the second Podesta first and then go to your clip?
	No, I... Go, go, go, go.
	The reason...
	No, maybe you should play that first because this is kind of a deconstruction I got to do and it might interfere with the Podesta line.
	Yeah, we just want information.
	That's all we're trying to get.
	So as part of this Judicial Watch lawsuit, Huma Abedin had to testify under oath.
	Now, this is important because we have a lot of different investigations, etc., going on.
	Judicial Watch is playing it the right way.
	They're playing it through FOIA and the judge.
	Straight up.
	Yeah, I mean, these guys are good.
	I don't know who's funding them other than Republicans, obviously.
	It's definitely not Soros.
	No, not Soros.
	Not this time.
	So as part of this Judicial Watch lawsuit, Huma Abedin had to testify under oath.
	And she said, quote, I looked for all the devices that may have had any of my State Department work on it and returned, returned, gave them to my attorneys for them to review for all relevant documents and gave them devices and paper.
	Obviously, this other computer was not included in that group.
	Have you asked?
	Abedin, why she did not turn over this computer that is now being reviewed by the FBI? Look, I think Huma's been completely cooperative with the authorities, and they've recognized that.
	She's worked with her attorneys to turn over relevant material.
	But we don't know what this is all about, really.
	So it's very hard to...
	Don, she hasn't been completely cooperative if she didn't turn over every device that had State Department emails on them, and this one computer did.
	I think it's clear that she complied to the best of her ability to turn everything over that she had in her possession.
	I don't know anything more than the speculation that's running wild in the press now about what this is about.
	I've talked to her, of course...
	Have you asked Huma Abedin what is on the computer and why she didn't turn it over when she said she had divided all the devices?
	We don't know what computer Mr.
	Comey is talking about.
	You're assuming a lot of facts that we don't know.
	So I think that, as I said, she's been fully cooperative with the authorities, and they have recognized that.
	And I think that we can sit here and speculate and put facts into the record based on...
	We're speculating, sir.
	Our reporting is that it was a laptop computer that belonged to Anthony Weiner, and they found State Department emails on that laptop.
	That's reporting.
	That's not speculation.
	You have access to Huma Abedin.
	I don't.
	Have you asked her how this happened?
	I don't think she knows anything more than what we've seen in the press to date.
	I don't think.
	You know, if people, proper authorities want to ask her questions, they'll ask her questions, but she's been fully cooperative in this investigation.
	Oh yeah, that's very good.
	Okay.
	And again, I'll say, she probably didn't know.
	She probably did not know, but she was downloading, she was sending classified documents to her Yahoo email to print them out, to send to Hillary, and Wiener sat there and just copied them and put them in a little folder called Life Insurance, because, you know, let's face it, the guy knows how the Clintons operate.
	Two to the head.
	What a troublemaker this guy is.
	Can you believe how mad they must be?
	Can you imagine the meetings?
	I'd love to be in one.
	And Podesta's gotta be just crapping his pants.
	He's getting burned every which way.
	Yeah, yeah.
	They got his emails.
	He's trying to be a stooge now.
	He has to go in front of everybody.
	He seemed like a guy who never liked to go on these interview shows.
	No, not at all.
	So he's up there.
	I know you have a deconstruction clip, but maybe a quick word from Judge Napolitano on why Huma is history?
	Judge, what are the implications of Uma Abedin?
	Now, we don't know, again, what is happening, but the fact that the FBI is saying that classified information was found on devices used by Uma Abedin and Anthony Weiner, what is the implication of Uma Abedin sharing classified information, whatever level it was, with Anthony Weiner, her ex-husband?
	They were married at the time.
	Go ahead.
	That would be bad political news Hold on a second.
	Do you think they're divorced already?
	She just said they were married at the time.
	Do you think the divorce is already final?
	I haven't heard anything.
	I'll check while we listen to the rest of the clip.
	They were married at the time.
	Go ahead.
	That would be bad political news for Mrs.
	Clinton, but it would be good legal news for her if the target of this is Huma Abedin and not Mrs.
	Clinton.
	Huma Abedin from time to time has had a top-level security clearance because she was the number two advisor to Mrs. Clinton and was an employee of the State Department.
	If she violated that security clearance by passing top-secret or confidential information onto her husband, or if she did so inadvertently by sharing...
	She could very well be charged with espionage, the failure to secure state secrets that have been proposed to you for safekeeping.
	That's the same charge that they investigated and cleared Mrs.
	Clinton for earlier this summer.
	I don't think they're divorced.
	I think they're just separated.
	There's no notice of...
	I think you're just a misspeaking.
	Yeah, but it's important in this particular case now.
	I'm not so sure that it is.
	For testifying?
	Yeah, but they don't need his testimony.
	They got the laptop.
	Well, I'm pretty sure that right now, Uma Abedin is cutting a deal with FBI. Immunity.
	We'll see if her loyalty is with the Clintons.
	We'll see.
	Well, in the olden days, or the way we see it in the movies, if the FBI knows what they're doing, they will start to Threaten her the way they did with Martha Stewart and everybody else.
	Yeah.
	You know, we're going to throw the book at you if you don't come around.
	You've got to cooperate.
	You know Hillary, you know her very well.
	She's going to throw you under the bus.
	No, the only person going under the bus is Anthony Weiner.
	And probably literally.
	Yeah, no.
	Oops!
	What was that?
	The bus just rolled over.
	His life insurance policy has been revealed.
	Isn't that great?
	I don't have any leverage now.
	Isn't that great?
	I love that.
	All right, you had a deconstruction clip.
	Yeah, this is interesting because we can do the same thing.
	Hillary is very good at deflecting.
	This is Cecilia Vega.
	This is ABC. She was covering the fact that the plane didn't have Wi-Fi for some reason.
	Oh, no, no.
	I think they turned it off.
	I'm pretty sure they turned it off.
	I don't know if that jet has Wi-Fi at all.
	But whatever was going on...
	Good save.
	You're welcome.
	Whatever was going on was...
	Cecilia had...
	She was the one behind the line.
	They had a camera on her.
	The news guys are doing this more now.
	They take the correspondent and they put the camera on the correspondent in the pile of people yelling, Hey, Hillary, what do you think of this?
	Right.
	And then, I don't know why they do it.
	I think it's dumb.
	But Cecilia Vega finally got a hold of Hillary and got to answer or ask her an interesting question, which Hillary didn't even come close to answering.
	She just went in a very structured way, and I think we can break down the structure of this, of answering a different question.
	What would you say to a voter who right now will be seeing you and hearing what you're saying, saying, I didn't trust her before.
	I don't trust her anymore right now.
	You know, I think people a long time ago made up their minds about the emails.
	I think that's factored in to what people think.
	And now they're choosing a president.
	And Cecilia Vega joined us live tonight from Iowa.
	And Cecilia, do they truly sense this could affect the outcome of the election?
	Well, David, their outrage today certainly suggests that they are nervous about this.
	They are furious that this came 11 days before Election Day.
	We know this.
	It's anyways, the back and forth.
	She asked her whether or not people can trust her.
	It's a trust thing, which I think was a way that I think they snuck that in.
	Yeah, of course.
	So they dropped that in and Hillary structures her answer by not answering.
	She never says anything about people not trusting her.
	She starts with no.
	At the beginning of all these answers, you start with no, and then you deflect by bringing up another topic.
	She says no.
	People know about the emails, but that wasn't about emails.
	She didn't ask her about emails.
	She just asked her about trust.
	She says, no, everybody knows about the emails, and then she says, it's factored in, which is, again, now she's taking it completely off topic.
	Starts with a no.
	The emails have been factored in, and then she makes the transition, and she uses the word now.
	Mm-hmm.
	So she says, now we're talking about electing a president.
	I think we should play it again.
	It's short enough.
	It's very interesting.
	I love it.
	I love it.
	And not only that, but it's solid.
	What would you say to a voter who right now will be seeing you and hearing what you're saying, saying, I didn't trust her before.
	I don't trust her anymore right now.
	You know, I think people a long time ago made up their minds about the emails.
	I think that's factored in to what people think, and now they're choosing a president.
	And Cecilia Vega doing this live tonight from Iowa.
	And Cecilia, do they truly sense this could affect the outcome of the election?
	Well, David, their outrage today certainly suggests that they are nervous about this.
	They are furious that this came 11 days before Election Day.
	This was a total bombshell to them.
	Yeah, I think that you're spot on there.
	Spot on.
	I sent you a link.
	She does that all the time.
	She's constantly doing it.
	I don't think she's ever answered anything unless it's a setup.
	I sent you a link in the Skype.
	If you open it, you'll see the Clinton plane with GoGo Wi-Fi on board sticker.
	Okay.
	Uh...
	Maybe they didn't want to pay the 10 bucks.
	They turned it off!
	Come on!
	You know how they are.
	Of course they had to turn it off.
	Yeah.
	Ooh, ooh, ooh.
	Another one of my predictions comes true.
	Suggesting that James Comey is trying to influence this election.
	It was a bombshell.
	This is Geraldo, by the way.
	Listen to what he says.
	Suggesting that James Comey is trying to influence this election.
	It was a bombshell, mainly because the FBI has a tradition of not interfering with the electoral process.
	Tradition.
	By the way, that totally shows that Geraldo is a shill.
	Because he's using the talking points.
	Tradition.
	Oh, he's already come out for Hillary.
	Oh yeah, shill.
	By the way.
	...has a tradition of not interfering with the electoral process.
	Here we're 11 days from the most significant election in our lifetime, maybe.
	And the FBI is intruding in this way that I think is very, very profound.
	I think that...
	Wait, no, wait.
	Just wait.
	Six seconds.
	Don't step on it.
	...is...
	Oh, please.
	Maybe listen to that.
	Now, here's the thing.
	What he says, it's a tradition for the FBI not to interfere with the election.
	When has it ever happened that you had some felon, or would-be felon, running for offices under investigation for espionage?
	I'm sorry.
	You can't do that.
	Where the FBI would get involved, and the FBI's only been in business since, what, the 30s, the 1920s, I guess?
	Yeah.
	So what kind of a tradition is this?
	No tradition.
	Situations never occur, so you can't have a tradition.
	It's fabulous.
	It's a tradition, John.
	Like Christmas.
	It's just a tradition.
	Oh, man.
	Amidst all of this, and I haven't seen this clip played.
	Oh, why is this clip now not operating?
	Okay.
	What?
	Don't make sounds like that.
	I have to play this a different way.
	Putin.
	Yes, our friend.
	Putin!
	Pooin, he came out and he talked very...
	Oh, can't be opened.
	Okay, well that's fucked.
	Damn it.
	Can't be opened.
	Oh, damn it.
	Hey, they got into your machine, man.
	Anyway, it was Putin saying, what is America?
	Banana Republic?
	No, we can't influence them.
	That was basically the clip.
	I don't know what happened to it.
	It's zero bites.
	Zero bites.
	Thanks, everybody.
	Zero bites.
	Zero bites.
	Thanks.
	Damn it.
	Damn it.
	I only have two things.
	I have that leaked audio of Hillary Clinton talking about interfering with the Palestinian election, but it's so poor in quality that I almost don't want to play it.
	Yeah, I can't hear it.
	But she says, hey, you know, we should have at least done something to make sure we knew who was going to win.
	Something you can look at in the show notes.
	What I thought would be kind of fun, since we all saw Mike Pence's aircraft run off the runway...
	Actually, I have a clip of the three accidents that all happened at once.
	Okay, let's listen to those first.
	Three plane wrecks.
	Here we go.
	The 767 wide-body jet was headed for Miami.
	Officials first thought the plane blew a tire and had to abort.
	Now, American says an engine-related issue caused the fire.
	The fire seen by passengers landing nearby.
	The towering smoke visible from blocks away.
	The entire right wing melted.
	And David, back here at O'Hare tonight, you can see that aircraft still surrounded by emergency vehicles.
	Officials say at least 20 people who were on the plane are being treated for minor injuries.
	David?
	Alex Perez right there in Chicago.
	Alex, thank you.
	And now the pictures coming in at this hour from Fort Lauderdale.
	Another airplane scare late today.
	A FedEx cargo plane exploding into flames on the runway.
	You can hear the gasps there.
	The main landing gear collapsed as it was landing.
	No injuries reported.
	We'll stay on this.
	There are also new developments tonight in the dangerous close call for Republican vice presidential candidate Mike Pence.
	His campaign plane skidding off the runway during a storm at New York's LaGuardia Airport last night.
	Pence saying he could feel the plane fishtail before finally sliding into a safety feature called an arrestor bed, stopping short of a highway here in New York.
	Okay, a couple of things.
	One...
	Regarding the American Airlines flight, everybody who saw that video, please remember that because it was the flight attendants who kept everybody safe.
	That's their job, to get your sorry ass out of the plane.
	And when I see people who like, you know, they were like, oh, let me just grab my bag from the overhead bin.
	Flight attendants, you may think they're a-holes, but they're there to keep you safe, and that's what they did.
	A lot of misreporting in what happened off the runway.
	No, they did not skid off the runway.
	LaGuardia Airport has a relatively short runway anyway.
	I think it's 5,000 feet.
	7,000 is kind of normal.
	It's reasonably short.
	It's grooved because of the weather in New York and water issues.
	But still, there is aquaplaning possible.
	And all the pilots report as they're landing.
	And they say, okay, the tower will say, how was braking?
	Yeah, I mean, what?
	Yeah.
	Nothing?
	No, sorry.
	The tower will say, how was braking?
	Medium, okay.
	So it was kind of okay.
	I think what happened here is pilots always want to make a smooth landing.
	And particularly when it's wet, there was a lot going on.
	And, you know, somehow they started to aquaplane.
	They did not skid off the runway.
	They just kept going all the way until the end.
	And then there's this, it's actually called a cam, there's this substance that the minute you go over it with something heavy like an aircraft, it breaks down, crushes, and turns into dust.
	And that shit will slow you down real quick.
	And that's what it's there for.
	I thought it'd be fun to listen to the air traffic control of the incident.
	Yeah, it would be fun.
	Yeah, it's just a little different.
	The flight is Eastern, I think, 3459.
	So that's Eastern, 3452, clear to land, runway 22.
	I thought this was an American flight.
	No, this is the Pence plane.
	Oh, the Penn's plane, okay, right.
	Penn's plane is leased, and it's Eastern, 3452.
	And confirm, Eastern, 3452, it's cleared to land.
	Eastern, 3452, running through to clear to land, winds 110 at 90, check it to departing, holding in position on 813.
	Clear to land, Eastern, 3452, copy traffic.
	I shot it, I shot it, 6334, left Yankee, left Bravo, contact ground, please sign in tonight.
	Check it for landing, clearance for definitely 1640.
	JetBlue 1640, running to school, cleared to land.
	Traveling to station 13. - Bird to land, JetBlue 1640. - Okay, so now JetBlue is right behind him, and they're now landing.
	They're halfway over the runway, and I think they really land.
	They touched down way too late to stop in time.
	Eastern, stop, stop, Eastern.
	Eastern, stop, stop, stop, stop.
	Go around, go around, JetBlue 1640.
	So JetBlue can't land, they're going around, and this plane, you can see it, it's just all the way into the end of the road.
	2,000.
	We have an emergency in the airport.
	JetBlue 1198, go around, so I run ahead and climb in 3, 2,000.
	Any four vehicles in this frequency, LaGuardia TAC? Go ahead, LaGuardia TAC 9-0.
	All right, you were aware of the accident, correct?
	Affirmative, on my way.
	Roger.
	We're not getting anybody out.
	Runways are closed right now.
	Just let me know further assistance.
	Tower, the airport is closed.
	Airport closed, Roger.
	Airport is closed.
	Not too dramatic, but stop, Eastern!
	Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop!
	So not off the runway, just at the end of the runway.
	But you know what?
	Everybody walks away, good landing.
	Yeah.
	That's what I say.
	I just thought it was odd there were so many right away.
	Of course, this is three.
	It's like the random number.
	It's like when three celebrities die, people always like to moan about that when it's something that happens a lot.
	So not all that spectacular, but a good one.
	I'm sure it was bumpy.
	Stop!
	Please stop!
	Don't do this.
	Stop, stop, stop.
	Anything else on emails or anything like that that we want to talk about?
	Other than maybe just the deconstruction, to me it seems.
	Wiener was collecting the emails.
	They include emails that were supposed to have been deleted.
	There were emails that were supposed to have been deleted, and that's the felony.
	Or is it a felony?
	Probably.
	Well, it violates 2071.
	So that means that...
	And the other one, which is 68, I think, 2068.
	Which, by executive order, by the law that was put in place, you can no longer serve public office.
	That's what they're going for now.
	You can dredge up all these old laws.
	They're not going to enforce them.
	Well, so here's the question.
	Unless you're a grunt in the army.
	Yeah.
	Or even, no, didn't a four-star general just recently get convicted for doing the same thing?
	Yes, this is true.
	Unless you're a four-star general.
	So...
	So?
	So, well, so...
	So?
	So.
	Okay.
	Is Comey, has he, I've always asserted he's Team Trump.
	Trump has been very kind, even when they messed him up.
	I've asserted that from day one.
	Yeah, well, we both asserted, fine.
	But then it seemed like he wasn't Team Trump.
	I've always interpreted everything he's done as pro-Trump, including not indicting Hillary.
	Well, this is certainly doing it.
	Certainly.
	It's the best he can do.
	I mean, what else can he do?
	He can't really do anything.
	Because Loretta Lynch is not going to let him get away with...
	I mean, she seems like the corrupt one to me.
	Yeah.
	She's not going to put up with it.
	She'll just fire him.
	Well, never a born...
	Dereliction of duty.
	Not following orders.
	What will the next steps be?
	What do you think this...
	Something's going to happen today, I'm sure.
	What will the steps be?
	Well, it's a show day, so something has to happen.
	I'm looking for Wiener to kick...
	Before the election.
	Well, they're going to have to kill him.
	I don't know how they're going to manage it.
	I mean, he's got to be depressed.
	No, listen.
	Suicide, and then you can put it all on him.
	Note, we got a note.
	I was so bad.
	How about this?
	I access Huma's stuff, and I downloaded stuff, and I was bad, and I'm so sorry about breaking the American tradition, and therefore I kill myself.
	Seems worth killing yourself over.
	He's got to go.
	I'm predicting it.
	Put it in the book.
	Someone dies.
	We both predicted it.
	I predicted it too.
	Both of us have said this.
	I'm not trying to take credit.
	I'm just saying.
	Yes, I know.
	But it's a known fact that we've said this.
	All right.
	But let's put it in the book before Election Day.
	Okay, it's in the book.
	You think it's going to happen before election?
	This would make up for the killing Bill thing.
	He's been lying low.
	Right.
	Oh, wait!
	I could still be a good time.
	Maybe they could have a duel, and the two of them could shoot each other.
	The two of them killed each other.
	And 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 the Clinton Duel.
	Dvorak.
	Well, in the morning to you.
	Also, in the morning, it all ships to see boots on the ground, feet in the air.
	Subs in the water and all the dames and knights out there.
	In the morning to everybody in the chat room, noagendastream.com.
	Thanks for showing up today.
	Record numbers, but that was kind of to be expected.
	In the morning to all of our artists.
	We want to say in the morning to Nick the Rat, who brought us the album artwork for episode 872.
	What was it?
	Kinetic Kill, I think, is the title of that one.
	And I do have a note here that we have to say it was surprising.
	That we had pretty much no anniversary art.
	You know, in fact, zero.
	Yeah, we were stunned by that.
	Zero anniversary art.
	Zero.
	Well, at least, you know, we lectured the artist not to do anything that's taught timely, in other words, with a show number or something like that, because we might not really use it in the future.
	But I think somebody could take a lark on an anniversary piece of art.
	Yeah, it didn't happen.
	Nobody did.
	It did not happen.
	All right, let's thank some people.
	John?
	All right, we do have a few people to thank.
	For show, whatever this is, 7, 6, 8, 875.
	Close enough.
	873.
	874.
	873.
	That means we got seven more shows before we hit the magic number.
	880.
	880, yeah.
	And then, eight more shows, another little period of time.
	The number one Chinese lucky number.
	888.
	888.
	So people might want to keep that.
	I want to do some special program where you get a triple.
	I'm going to go with triple producer credit.
	Anyone who gets a...
	Whoa, I like that idea.
	It's kind of money.
	I like it.
	I've never done that before.
	We've done double, but never.
	I like it.
	Triple.
	But it's enough that it could be.
	There's no reason not to be.
	All right.
	Sir Grant, a signer in Parts Unknown, $399.99, top donor.
	He says, did you guys know the risks of...
	Do you know the risks of douching include?
	Oh, no.
	Vaginal infections.
	Vaginal or vaginal?
	Which one do you want to choose?
	Either one.
	I don't care.
	It's in the same general area.
	Vaginal.
	Pelvic.
	Vaginal.
	That's funny.
	Pelvic inflammatory disease.
	Difficulty in getting pregnant.
	Cervical cancer.
	Ouch.
	Turns out a douche could be much worse than a Trump pee grab.
	Lucky, my friends, Lance donated a couple of weeks ago and his pelvis was starting to inflame.
	Therefore, I must donate once again to avoid having all those aforementioned afflictions.
	I think we should give him the de-douching.
	I believe that's what he's asking for.
	You've been de-douched.
	Thanks to you, Ed.
	Is this Crown Hog Day 2?
	We are watching That Was Attorney General Eric Holden, ABD, about some Republicans at home already beating the drums of war.
	Today, the Pentagon refuted that claim.
	And he said the American people do not want him to, quote, dwindling.
	They do not want him dwindling his thumb.
	You can get a gig as a contortionist.
	Intravenous fluids and pills coated with gelatin.
	We don't leave our women or men in uniform behind.
	It's a monument to the hubris of Dick Cheney.
	Representative Raul Ara Labrador.
	Years of abuse.
	I personally apologize to Mr.
	Beaver.
	That's all I can stand.
	That's what he asked.
	As much as you can stand, that's about it.
	That guy has a job on TV, just to remind everybody.
	Yes, he's got a good job on TV. He's making more money than we are.
	I believe he's making...
	Six million?
	Or was?
	It's something crazy.
	It's something outrageous.
	He's one of the top numbers guys on MSNBC. Yep.
	That shows you your MSNBC audience.
	Yo, yo.
	Oh, there's Al.
	Arthur Sucher in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.
	$333.33.
	I can find nothing.
	There's no note.
	Nothing.
	Oh, let me check.
	But if you have something to tell us, you can do it next show.
	That's Arthur.
	I couldn't find anything under Arthur Sucher.
	In fact, I couldn't even find his PayPal receipt, so he's using a different name.
	No, I don't see it.
	I don't see it either.
	No.
	Mark Klein in Barron, Wisconsin, 30298.
	And he has an email that he sent, and I have it open here if I can get to my email.
	Mark Klein.
	This 302.98 donations brings me to knighthood.
	See attached accounting.
	Well, hold on.
	That's not on the list.
	It's not on the list because he doesn't get the letter.
	Alright.
	I would like to be knighted as the knight of Barron County.
	Okay.
	Wisconsin, if it's available.
	Let me look.
	Oh, yeah.
	The night of Barron, what?
	With two R's.
	Barron County?
	Yeah.
	Barron County, Wisconsin.
	Okay.
	I would like to thank you both for the twice weekly mental hygiene.
	I have given up on the mainstream media and I let you digest the information, or BS as you would be called, for me.
	I have been a much happier person since having done this.
	It has been a few months since my last donation.
	I'm not sure if I need a de-douching, and I will leave that up to you both.
	Could I get a what difference does it make?
	Two to the head, and please clap.
	Okay.
	What difference does it make?
	And he definitely wants an extra helping a muffin, mutton, not muffin, and mead.
	It'll be in there.
	He has a mutton and mead.
	Keep him the great work.
	Okay, we can do that for him.
	What difference at this point does it make?
	You've got karma.
	Alright, thank you very much.
	I would consider that a top drawer combination.
	Nice combo, I agree.
	Yep.
	Okay, back to the spreadsheet.
	Oops.
	We're going to Gitmo Nation Deutschland.
	Now we go to, we hit Mark Klein.
	This is M-nonymous in Deutschland.
	$222.22 cents.
	I sent a note in saying he loves the show, but he has to remain anonymous.
	David Roberts, $200.
	Another one whose I could not find any.
	Oh, no, there's something here.
	He wants $200 even, and he'll be associate executive producer.
	He says, if Hillary becomes president, does that make Uba Abedin the first lady?
	Boom!
	Shaka-laka.
	Thanks, Obama.
	It's what he'd like.
	Okay.
	Davis or David Knight of the Yellow Rose.
	Bingo!
	Boom!
	Boom!
	Shaka-laka!
	Boom!
	Shaka-laka!
	Boom!
	Shaka-laka!
	If you wake up with the blues, trying to fill your day with news, there's one thing you must remember, no agenda in the morning.
	For a healthy, balanced news diet, try NoAgendaShow.com.
	Do-do-do-do!
	Ah!
	Thanks, Obama.
	You've got karma.
	Here we go!
	And we do another show on Thursday.
	Dvorak.org slash NA. Keep us on track.
	Yeah, and I'm sure...
	Well, what is Thursday?
	Thursday will be the 3rd of November, I think?
	Well, see, the first will be Tuesday, Wednesday, yeah.
	Yeah, okay, we're getting close.
	Only a couple more shows before the election.
	And who knows what we'll have to talk about on Thursday.
	Do remember us at...
	And thanks to all of these executive and associate executive producers.
	These are official credits.
	And you could say, executive producer of the first tenth year show.
	Something like that.
	The first tenth year.
	How many tenths years are we going to have?
	Yeah, well, one.
	Hey, propagate the formula, will ya?
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	Ships, ladies.
	Shut up, slave.
	That's right.
	I like to do a little campaign consulting.
	Campaign consulting, okay.
	Some we don't do enough.
	We do some of it on the show, but I'm going to do some for you.
	Are you going to be a consultant?
	I would be.
	I never thought about it, but I don't have a shingle.
	For purposes of this show, do you want me to call you?
	No, no.
	I'm just going to go on with just straight up advice.
	This is the Green Party candidate in Maryland who went up onto the stage of the debate and demanded to be allowed to.
	It's kind of pathetic as they dragged her off.
	She says, but I'm a candidate.
	But this is not Jill Stein.
	Who is this?
	And in Maryland, a debate between the Democratic and Republican Senate candidates was disrupted Wednesday when the Green Party's candidate, Dr.
	Margaret Flowers, jumped on stage to insist she be allowed to take part.
	After briefly speaking on the stage, Dr.
	Flowers was removed by security.
	I think it's important for voters to understand the differences between myself and Congressman Van Hollen and Delegate Shalega.
	Otherwise, they don't really know.
	I mean, you say you're a public university and you want to educate the public, but without having a full public discussion, that doesn't actually happen.
	So how does this serve democracy or serve the public if I'm excluded from this discussion when I'm on the ballot?
	I don't think so.
	Ms. Brown, she's not going to leave now.
	It's Dr. Flowers.
	I'm a candidate for U.S. Senate in Maryland.
	And this is how you're treating a candidate?
	The Green Party candidate, Margaret Flowers, was removed from the stage.
	The debate went on between Democratic nominee Chris Van Halen and Republican Kathy Saliga.
	Okay, so there was a debate, and then she said, I deserve to be on the stage.
	Was that the idea?
	She went on the stage.
	Yeah.
	Oh, yeah.
	I understood between the two candidates and started your little rant.
	I love that.
	I think she should have been on the stage.
	Why not?
	It's just Meryl.
	It's a two-party system.
	There's no one else to vote for.
	Here's what she should have done.
	If you're going to do this sort of thing, there's very simple ways to make this work better and get more attention.
	She didn't get any attention except on the democracy now.
	So what you do is, if you're a candidate, there must be some people in the party that happen to be nearby that you could plant.
	And so you plant about anywhere from five – you could plant ten people into that debate because you get into these things.
	Nobody's there.
	So you put ten people in the audience, even five, and as soon as they – and you have two people that are very boisterous and they like it.
	They like – they're just troublemakers.
	And you have – or you hire somebody.
	Put a Craigslist ad up.
	Pack the thing.
	And then you, as they try to drag her, say, you can't drag her off, this is bullshit!
	Yes, bullshit!
	And they have all these guys yelling and screaming, and say, leave her, leave her!
	As though they're just neutral observers.
	And they would be great.
	It would be, they'd either have to put a podium up for her, or they'd make such a big stink that they'd get on national news.
	I believe the problem with these types of, you know, you have these, we have this idea that everything has to be a party, and I understand why, because you have to get everybody on the ballot in all 50 states.
	It's a very decentralized system.
	But unless you have a lot of money to pay everybody and tell them to do what the F you want them to do, you're going to get this.
	You're going to get a mess.
	It's just shambles.
	I do not like political parties at all, and if you're under some kind of level of radar of financing, it always sucks.
	It always sucks.
	Yeah?
	What's your point?
	My point is, it's a two-party system.
	We're screwed.
	Forget about it.
	It's over.
	Well, you can't forget about it.
	You can also make trouble.
	You're going to go up there and jump on stage.
	You better have some backup in the audience.
	I'm just saying that.
	You're going to jump up on stage.
	You have to have shills in the audience.
	I think that's my point.
	They have no organization.
	They don't know what they're doing.
	Everyone's a little hero.
	They don't know what they're doing is obvious by the fact that she'd jump up there by herself with nobody backing her up in the audience.
	Right.
	Competent boneheads.
	Hey, I have the Putin clip.
	Ah, it's about time.
	The zero-by-one?
	How did you make that work?
	I was doing stuff on the fly.
	Hysteria has been fueled within the U.S. with regard to Russia's alleged influence upon the current presidential election.
	Indeed, the U.S. has many acute challenges like the colossal public debt.
	To an absurd in violence with lethal arms, yes, and arbitrary reactions of the police.
	I think this is what they should talk during the election.
	Probably they should talk about that.
	The elite do not have much to say, they do not have anything to pacify the society with, so it's far easier to divert the attention of people, to concentrate their efforts on Russia's alleged spies or conduits of influence.
	I'm wondering, I'd like to pose the same question to you, is there anyone who seriously thinks that Russia can in any way influence the choice of the American people?
	As the U.S. Banana Republic, the U.S. is a great power.
	If I'm wrong, please correct me.
	There you go.
	That, of course, was the translator, not Putin himself.
	I like that.
	Finally, he said something.
	But he should say that and he can do it himself.
	He's an idiot.
	He's not that interested.
	But that's the campaign consulting I'd do.
	He's not that interested.
	He'll just tell you, I don't care, it's too much work.
	It's like a script.
	NPR is still a little bit behind the ball on everything.
	They're still working the Russia angle.
	And we've always suspected that this group was a great propaganda group.
	We always suspected they were certainly funded by...
	Well, I think, if I recall correctly, we have identified links about money flowing from, I think, the National Endowment for Democracy to them.
	Oh, yeah, that's the big one.
	Yeah.
	And, of course, if you're not out there discrediting Putin...
	Well, you might as well, you know, again, you're working for some American outfit.
	You might as well shift it just a little bit to the next big foe.
	Okay, four years ago, the world learned the name Pussy Riot, a Russian art collective.
	No, they're not back, are they?
	Yep, they're back.
	Members of that group staged a punk rock demonstration in a church in protest of Russia's President Vladimir Putin and the Russian church's support of his presidential campaign.
	Some members of that group were arrested, they were charged with hooliganism, and they spent two years in prison.
	And, wow, NPR is easy to slip over the fact that they did break a lot of laws in the process of doing that.
	Might not agree with the laws, but they're laws by Russia.
	Pussy Riot gained many supporters around the world, which some say put pressure on Vladimir Putin to release them.
	But today, inside Russia, the protest movement is suffering, as some prominent opposition politicians have been killed.
	A lot of Russian people who would consider political action for themselves, they think right now they would be killed.
	Because it's not just words right now.
	It happens.
	That's Nadia Tolokonikova.
	She's one of the founding members of Pussy Riot who was imprisoned.
	And let us all recall, the genius of Pussy Riot is anybody can be Pussy Riot.
	You just need to put the ski mask or the purple or the pink ski mask over your head.
	So there could be multiple Pussy Riots.
	While she still creates art in protest of Vladimir Putin and his policies, she's recently set her sights on Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.
	Gee, because she hates Russia so much?
	She has a new song and music video.
	It is called Make America Great Again.
	And once again, the music is a piece of crap.
	But it's so obvious.
	This is terrible.
	I didn't catch this.
	NPR, no less.
	And it goes on forever.
	It goes on forever.
	NPR. They got time to fill.
	They got no commercials.
	They just have advertising.
	Underwriting.
	Sponsorships.
	Whatever you want to call it.
	Exactly.
	So that's back.
	Good one.
	Yeah, and that makes nothing but sense.
	That they have to come out against Donald Trump because that put the kibosh on the Russians.
	That'll stop Putin.
	That'll stop him.
	Yeah.
	There you go.
	Okay, we got...
	Here's Russia and WikiLeaks.
	Apparently, Russia and WikiLeaks are in bed together.
	WikiLeaks continues to release fresh batches of emails from Hillary Clinton's campaign chat.
	Let me guess.
	RT? Yeah.
	Emmon, the whistleblowing group's editor, Julian Assange, has been dubbed a Russian spy.
	However, he claims Clinton's campaign has, in fact, tried to hack into the servers of WikiLeaks.
	RT correspondent Anastasia Cherkin reports.
	You know, it's quite fun to see friends, people I know, who are, you know, we're all, WikiLeaks is great.
	Yeah, when they were exposing Bush and Republicans, and what else did they expose that was fun?
	Oh, there's tons of stuff.
	Yeah, but the minute the spotlights turn on someone else, then, oh, man, yeah, Sanchez, he switched, he sold out.
	What's the only story juicier than making out Russia as the worst of all evil?
	Stop, stop, stop.
	It just came to mind when I had that thesis about turning on your country against Hillary.
	What was the phrase?
	Treason.
	Disloyalty.
	Disloyalty.
	Right.
	Disloyalty.
	There you go.
	And then Sweden came into play because they mentioned that Hillary would let them do a deal with Iran.
	And Sweden, obviously, is in bed with these people.
	So the theory that they want to get Assange out of the Ecuadorian home and then move and grab him and take him to Sweden for simple questioning, and then the U.S. takes him from there.
	It's so obvious that that's maybe even part of that deal with Hillary.
	Hmm.
	Yeah, they could have been.
	I see a check in their reports.
	What's the only story juicier than making out Russia as the worst of all evils?
	That's right, throwing in the world's most famous whistleblowing website into the mix.
	And no one had to wait too long to get that story going far and wide in the media.
	Assange and Russia sleeping in the same bed.
	It's frankly absurd that just because WikiLeaks has shone a light on mainly US government deceptions and abuses, that he's therefore somehow in the arms of Russia.
	The two poster boys of evil walking hand in hand to destroy the US. Poster boys of evil.
	Nice.
	This is good.
	The two poster boys of evil walking hand in hand to destroy the US. What a perfect narrative.
	Let's break down the most popular arguments used so far.
	Number one, WikiLeaks latest batch of emails are anti-Clinton.
	Add on the not-too-heavily-backed-up view that Hillary's candidacy is somehow less preferred in Moscow than all the amazing things Trump has to offer plays so well into this narrative.
	Number two, Assange had his own show on RT while under house arrest in the UK.
	I'm Julian Assange.
	Roger, get your attention.
	Editor of WikiLeaks.
	We've exposed the world's secrets.
	These documents belong to the United States government.
	Been attacked by the powerful.
	Of course, this could only mean that he's a Russian spy and has nothing to do with the fact that RT was the only international news channel prepared to give a platform to alternative opinions and facts, that the more mainstream outlets have no interest in listening to.
	That is absurd, it's offensive, and it's untrue.
	He is simply trying to expose what Western governments are doing in our name, which the public have a right to know.
	That doesn't make him anybody's spy or anybody's cat's paw.
	Number three, one of the latest arguments, but just as entertaining.
	RT's fast move on the latest Podesta emails before WikiLeaks even tweeted about them, sparking accusations of collusion with a whistleblowing organization.
	There is growing evidence that Russia is using WikiLeaks as a delivery vehicle for hacked emails.
	Despite the documents already being public when reported on by RT, accusations quickly flew around that Russia and WikiLeaks were in on it together.
	And I'd like to remind everybody, if you read the latest batch of Podesta emails, and I have some of those in the show notes, 873.noagendanotes.com, you will read that this was a fishing expedition and that idiots like Podesta clicked on a link that looked like it was, oh, you've got to reset your Gmail password.
	And there's evidence this happened because they're showing in these emails, hey, man, you know, you got to change your password on your iPad and your iPhone.
	They know that something happened.
	They didn't know that they'd been completely compromised.
	So to speak of a hack, you should say social engineering with people who want to advise the leader of the country.
	Yeah.
	Good work.
	Yeah, that's how you do it.
	Yeah, that's the irony.
	Oh, it says click here.
	I have the email, actually, that they clicked on.
	It says, hi, my name is...
	Hi, my name is Jason.
	I am a Nigerian prince.
	Wait, no, that's not it.
	Sorry.
	They were hoping for the big payday so they'd get out from under.
	Hey, we got a donor from Nigeria.
	Way to go.
	All we got to do is open a bank account and send in five grand.
	Damn, let's do this, yo!
	Deal!
	Fantastic.
	Okay, you got more on this.
	It's worth the risk.
	I like this.
	What else you got?
	Oh, you have...
	That was all on WikiLeaks?
	Yeah, that was my one thing.
	I do have a bunch of RT stuff, but I'd rather...
	Before we do that, I discovered a new outfit.
	Maybe you'd heard about him.
	As I was researching, you know, because there's still, you know, Benny, the solar wind architect, former NSA, who says, if you want Hillary's emails, just, you know, tell NSA to walk up to the terminal, input this selector, they have everything, they know everything.
	So I'm looking around and following some links, and they run across.
	Now, we've all heard of DARPA. Defense Agency Research, was it Defense Advanced Research Project Agency, which is who pretty much created the internet, the technical underpinnings, pretty much.
	So that's DARPA. I did not realize there is an IARPA, which stands for Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity, in this case.
	And this is an outfit to pay attention to, IARPA.gov.
	And a couple things.
	Here's what they do.
	To ensure that our research addresses relevant future needs, to address cross-agency challenges, the Intelligence Advanced Research Project's activity invests in high-risk, high-payoff research programs to tackle some of the most difficult challenges of the agencies and disciplines in the intelligence community.
	And it's fun to look at who's the leadership.
	We have the Director, Dr.
	Jason Matheny, who worked at Oxford University, World Bank, Applied Physics, Center for Biosecurity at Princeton University.
	We have the Deputy Director, Stacey Dixon, who was Chief of Congressional Intergovernmental Affairs, worked with House Permits Select Committee on Intelligence, Central Intelligence Agency, National Reconnaissance Organization.
	Chief Scientist, Dr.
	William von der Linde.
	Gee, it won't surprise you.
	More spooks.
	It's all spooks.
	Spooks and bankers.
	But some of their projects are kind of interesting.
	Let me see.
	Their analysis.
	Current research.
	They have Aladdin Video.
	That's the program.
	And it does image, photograph, video, multimedia, computer, vision, natural language processing, image processing, big data, video analytics, machine learning, speech processing.
	Babel.
	Which is multilingual, multidialect, speech recognition, keyword search algorithms, speech recognition in noisy environments, low-resource languages.
	What is that?
	A low-resource language.
	Like grunting?
	Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
	I don't know what low resource.
	Caveman.
	Rapid Adaption to New Languages and Environments.
	Core 3D. Multi-view Satellite Image Processing.
	Some good shit here.
	D.Va.
	Machine Learning, Deep Learning, or Hierarchical Modeling.
	Artificial Intelligence.
	Woo!
	Finder.
	Geolocation, localization, geospatial fusion.
	There's some good stuff here, man.
	A lot of it sounds like...
	Money wasting?
	Yeah, probably.
	Sounds like huge waste.
	Sounds like money wasting.
	I just thought it was...
	I had no idea these guys existed.
	Now we know.
	And they have a.gov we can look at once in a while.
	Some news from France.
	I need to do something from overseas.
	We know the jungle got cleaned up.
	And a lot of very soft reporting on that.
	Oh yeah.
	People just went away.
	There were flames and all kinds of stuff was going on.
	But no, hey, they just went peacefully.
	They faded away into the night.
	We have no idea where they went.
	It's been widely reported in France that migrant encampments are springing up in Paris just days after the demolition of the massive jungle camp in Calais.
	That's going to do wonders for the tourist business.
	This is a dismissing the claims.
	There is no influx of arrivals in Paris from Calais.
	There has been no migrant movement between Calais and Paris.
	Those are the officials.
	The majority of migrants relocating in Paris are apparently situated in the north of the city near the Stalingrad metro station.
	That's the no-go zone.
	That is the no-go zone, you're right.
	From where Harry Fear sent this report.
	Well, after the Calais camp's closure, eyes now are on the capital.
	Reportedly, some of those displaced from the so-called jungle camp have now made camp on the streets of Paris and beside the capital's parks.
	If Calais was home to a jungle, Paris is now home to a tent city.
	Quite extraordinary to witness.
	Yeah, the pictures are fantastic.
	Just amazing.
	I got some overseas news.
	Does he want to bring it over there?
	Can I just keep it with the migrants for a second?
	Sure, you're still on it.
	Yeah, the president apparently is going to go visit the EUs and probably tell everyone that Hillary is the one.
	He's just taking his last trip to Europe.
	Well, hell yeah.
	Hell yeah.
	Do we get to go in separate jets again, Dad?
	I sure hope so.
	Do we get to go in separate jets again?
	Hey, what do you think?
	Shall we have the President meet with some of these poor migrants who are there, apparently, partially because of our bots policy in Syria?
	While the President is in Germany and Greece, I know that you don't have all the details for this trip yet, but will he be meeting with refugees?
	I know that's a part of the mission to both of these countries.
	Will there be an event where the President has FaceTime with people who are in these communities or have traveled?
	And are either internally displaced or displaced outside of their home country?
	At this point, Jared, I don't know whether or not the President will meet with refugees.
	You may recall that when the President traveled to Malaysia at the end of last year, he had an opportunity to visit a nonprofit in Kuala Lumpur that was Providing for the basic needs of people who had fled to Malaysia from other countries around the world.
	Many of the people that he met with were actually refugees who were in Malaysia who had been approved to move to the United States.
	And as somebody who had the benefit of witnessing that event, it was a really powerful experience.
	So if there's time on the President's schedule for him to meet with refugees who fled to Europe, then I'm sure he would be pleased to have the opportunity to do so.
	No, he's not going to be with any stinky migrants.
	That's obvious.
	Of course not.
	Only if he has time.
	Yes.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, it needs some time.
	Between the three-star restaurants.
	Mm-hmm.
	Mm-hmm.
	And he's going to Greece, I guess, to pick out his new island.
	I'll take that one.
	That one looks good.
	Well, there you go.
	Okay.
	So let's...
	Here's my version of European news.
	This one here started with this one.
	NATO pushing towards Russia.
	In what's been described as the biggest military buildup on Russia's border since the Cold War, the United States is promising to send troops, tanks, and artillery to Poland, while Britain is planning to send fighter jets to Romania and troops to Estonia next year.
	Why?
	Wait, wait, what did she say?
	They're moving these, the British are going to Estonia.
	Which is a nicer place.
	I know why, Putin.
	Estonia next year.
	The pledges were made Wednesday during a NATO meeting in Brussels.
	In addition, Germany, Canada and other NATO allies have pledged to send forces to the region.
	Jens Stoltenberg is NATO Secretary General.
	Today we also discussed progress in strengthening NATO's presence in the Black Sea region.
	With a Romanian-led multinational framework brigade on land.
	And we are working on measures in the air and at sea.
	And I'm pleased to confirm that several nations indicated their willingness to contribute to our presence in the Black Sea region on land, at sea, and in the air.
	Yeah, I actually, I have something related to that.
	He does your voice.
	Well, that's Jens.
	I have information that can lead.
	No, it's not.
	He's not different.
	It's different.
	It's not the same.
	It's slightly different.
	Also, he seems to be chewing on a lozenge.
	Yeah.
	I do have some information on this.
	First of all, Estonia, of course, borders on Russia in two spots.
	And it's really only a hop-skip and a jump from St.
	Petersburg.
	Well, it's more than a hop-skip and a jump.
	You might as well go to Estonia and check it out.
	It's supposed to be great.
	So that's why we're there.
	But...
	Where in the world is Victoria Kagan Noodleman?
	Yes, we had lost track of her.
	We knew that she was off to Cyprus.
	And I have information, intel on this.
	The reason for Newland to be in Cyprus and Malta is because the Russian fleet...
	Is in the Mediterranean Sea and they need to refuel their aircraft carrier.
	Malta said no.
	Spain said no.
	And Gibraltar said no.
	So I'm pretty sure that she's there to make sure that Cyprus also says no.
	My understanding is Spain said yes.
	Then that may be new.
	I heard...
	I heard that on the question time in the British Parliament.
	They were bitching about this.
	This came in this morning, so I don't know.
	Well, maybe they said no, but obviously there was pressure.
	The British didn't like it, but Spain should be able to do whatever they want to be pushed around by these guys.
	And I was...
	The overlooked part of this story was, why aren't the Russians using nuke power for their big boats?
	We do.
	We don't have any...
	Oh, let's just dock so we can put some fuel on board.
	Hmm, that's a good question.
	And it seems to me that they have the same technology as we have for that.
	And I'm wondering if the fuel is maybe for auxiliary stuff and not really to power the...
	Well, it's an aircraft carrier.
	Yeah, you need a lot of power to run one of those things.
	Let me take a look at the Admiral Kuznetsky.
	Kuznetsov, that is the aircraft carrier in question.
	Built in 1981.
	And I don't think it's...
	Steam turbines.
	Well, that doesn't mean anything.
	Let me just see what the propulsion, boilers, generators...
	Boilers, generators, not good.
	No.
	Boilers, generators.
	I don't think it's a nuke.
	Well, that's dumb.
	It should retrofit that old thing.
	And it is the flagship, according to the Wikipedias.
	The flagship of the fleet.
	Interesting.
	Well, but if they got planes, they need fuel for planes.
	So that would be the number one reason if it's an aircraft carrier.
	And I cannot find any news that Spain...
	I still see after NATO objections, Russian warships won't refuel.
	No one wants to refuel.
	That's all three days old.
	That's all...
	That's very un...
	genteel.
	Well, no one wants to be seen pandering to the enemy.
	Since when did they become the enemy?
	Oh, hello!
	Somebody should declare war so he knows who he is.
	Of course we know.
	It's obvious.
	Okay, well, let's go to another clip.
	Okay.
	Let's move it down to Africa.
	This is the...
	Drone bases expanding.
	Ah, more good news.
	In other military news, the Washington Post is reporting the Pentagon secretly expanded its global network of drone bases to include a base in Tunisia to conduct missions in Libya.
	The U.S. now maintains a string of drone bases across Africa from Niger to Djibouti.
	Hmm.
	That comes in handy.
	There was a Nigerian driver the other day for Ride Austin, and we were talking about this.
	He said, you're right across from Djibouti.
	I always try to throw in, I know what I'm talking about.
	He said, yeah, Djibouti.
	I said, where all the drones are.
	He said, yes.
	He said, boy, we're really, and the guy's been in Austin, this Nigerian guy, for 15 years.
	Wow, we're really trying to rule the world.
	And he went, I should have recorded it.
	Sadly, I didn't.
	Like, we're great.
	America does this.
	Africans need that.
	Whole of Africa is a mess.
	It's good that we're doing this.
	He was all in.
	He really, yeah, he loved it.
	You know, when guys like that, not loving it.
	Now, but there are moments where we're total dicks.
	Uh, yeah.
	Yeah.
	And I think that this is the moment of dickdom that is just so ridiculous.
	This has always bothered me anyway.
	This is the Cuba vote.
	It says vor on here.
	But the Cuban vote in the United Nations.
	And then I'm thinking, why did we abstain from this stupid vote?
	For the first time, the United States abstained from a United Nations General Assembly vote on a resolution calling for an end to a U.S. economic embargo on Cuba.
	The resolution was passed 191 to 0, with the United States and Israel abstaining.
	The U.S. had opposed the measure for the past 24 years.
	In Havana, residents welcomed the U.N. vote.
	Why are we abstain?
	Because we finally got beat back on this Cuba thing, which you should have done 20 years ago or more.
	But we're so adamant.
	We have the worst case of this, oh, save face.
	Save face.
	We're going to look weak.
	So they abstain.
	Of course, Israel, being a lapdog, decides to go along with that, and they abstain.
	It's ridiculous.
	Just vote yes.
	Yeah.
	It was 190 something to zero.
	Come on!
	Is that a move of dictum?
	I don't know.
	I find that hard to believe.
	There must be something else going on.
	It makes no sense.
	Oh, you mean about the Cuba thing?
	Yeah, I'm trying to figure it out.
	That's what you'd think.
	But at this point, it's been going on for so long.
	Didn't we open it all up, and are we proud of that, and Obama did it, and we can finally visit it?
	Yeah, and then we still don't do the vote in the UN. That's crazy.
	How does that work?
	What was the point?
	Well, I'm glad you picked that up, because now I want to know.
	Wasn't the whole point that the president, best president ever, of course, in our lifetime...
	That he opened that up, and we're friends, and we're going to work it all out, and the business is growing, and no?
	I don't know.
	According to the...
	That report went on.
	I didn't clip the second part of it, but they had a bunch of people in Cuba talking about, oh, good, maybe now we can get the embargo lifted.
	I guess the embargo for most stuff is still in play.
	Apparently.
	So we're not being told anything on this.
	Now, one of the things going on that really gets me is this.
	I retweeted this story in Bloomberg.
	Apparently, the city of San Francisco, and I'm sure I've got this a little slanted, but the city of San Francisco says that they want to allow the illegal immigrants to vote.
	Yeah, this is interesting.
	They want to allow them to vote.
	Let's let them vote.
	And they've also, by the way, there's a new word to watch out for.
	Newcomer.
	They're no longer...
	They're not illegal aliens.
	Oh, they're not undocumented workers.
	They're newcomers.
	Nice.
	They're newcomers.
	That's like...
	What do they use?
	Is that what they used on V? Oh, newcomers.
	Was it newcomers?
	Did they call them newcomers?
	The new ones?
	Something like that.
	We could probably expand on that.
	The newcomers.
	The new ones.
	I think newcomers was from V. I think.
	Maybe.
	I like it.
	Oh, let's let the newcomers vote.
	They're here.
	Remember, according to Michael Moore even, this is the only thing that equalizes all American citizens.
	The one thing, you may not have a job, you may not have a house, you may be home, but you have your vote.
	But apparently newcomers can have that too.
	Now the, yes, now the story is cropping up.
	This is not a singular event in San Francisco.
	This is cropping up everywhere.
	Now you don't see it in the mainstream media news, but Democracy Now is on it because it's their kind of thing.
	And this is the clip is demanding the vote for immigrants.
	Here in New York, 10 immigrant rights activists were arrested Tuesday morning after they chained themselves together and shut down traffic on the upper level of the George Washington Bridge during morning rush hour.
	The protest was organized by the Laundry Workers Center using the hashtag Somos Visibles or We Are Visible.
	Co-director of the Laundry Workers Center, Mahona Lopez, said, quote, we demand the right to vote and take part in the decisions in our communities, unquote.
	The group is calling for a day of action November 7th, the day before the presidential election.
	Yeah.
	I'm pretty sure a lot of newcomers are voting anyway.
	Oh, yeah.
	I know several newcomers, and I've now helped three on the path to becoming citizens.
	Which I'm quite proud of.
	And the real problem with these newcomers is one thing and one thing only.
	Cost.
	That's the only reason why they can't do this.
	It's cost.
	Five grand a person.
	That's just what it costs.
	They'll get that abolished.
	They have to.
	They have to.
	It's insane.
	Let's get the second part of that clip showing even more.
	Another example of this trend.
	And in addition to that, I believe you can register to vote as a newcomer.
	Because you pay taxes.
	You get a tax ID number from the IRS. It is possible to get a driver's license.
	Social security numbers, you can't do that anymore.
	But I think if you have a driver's license, in most states you can register to vote.
	Well...
	So they may already be doing it.
	Well, I don't know why they're bitching about that.
	We've got the newcomers and the deadcomers.
	Everyone's voting this year.
	It's great.
	A lot of dead.
	A lot of dead people voting.
	I remain...
	Finger and inkwell is the way to go.
	Second half of this clip.
	Well, that was the whole clip.
	No, there's two parts.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	I didn't see it.
	Here we go.
	Meanwhile, another group of immigrant rights activists held a march outside an immigration office in downtown Manhattan to demand deferred action from deportation, including a five-year work visa for all undocumented immigrants regardless of age or parental status.
	The campaign is called Saving Our Souls, a reference to Martin Luther King's motto for the civil rights movement.
	It included 37 people from Mexico, Honduras, Ghana, St.
	Vincent, Spain, and other countries that submitted their applications for deferred action.
	I have no idea what that is.
	I don't know either.
	But apparently they're taking this into their own hands because Obama signed some executive order that didn't really do anything.
	And so these guys are all upset.
	They want to vote.
	They want to vote in Hillary.
	Well, that's why it's getting support from a place in, I don't know, like San Francisco.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Is that not also a, what do you call it, something city?
	Sanctuary city?
	Sanctuary city, San Francisco.
	It resulted in a couple of murders.
	Oh, well, you know, these things happen.
	Update on the militiamen case, which I didn't even know there was an update.
	Yes, I have that too.
	I have a 27-second clip.
	What do you have?
	Mine?
	Yours is?
	Oh, yours is a minute.
	We're going with yours.
	The Secretary of the Interior says she is, quote, profoundly disappointed with the acquittals in Oregon's wildlife refuge takeover.
	Secretary Sally Jewell says she is concerned that it will damage the security and management of public lands.
	Seven defendants were charged with conspiracy after they occupied the refuge for 41 days.
	They say yesterday's verdict vindicates their claims of federal overreach.
	Now, did she even say that they were exonerated in that?
	Did she even say that?
	I don't think she said that in the report.
	Well, here's the reason.
	This was actually more than a minute.
	Oh, okay.
	Let me continue.
	There's more.
	We have to say we are so grateful for the patriots and for those jurors who spent their time.
	And we know it's a great sacrifice.
	And we are so grateful.
	We're in tears because we were so happy that they heard the truth.
	And they weren't intimidated enough that they didn't come back with the right judgment.
	The group's leader, Ammon Bundy, is being held on other charges from a 2014 Nevada standoff.
	His lawyer also faces charges after yelling at the judge yesterday to release Bundy.
	U.S. Marshals used a stun gun to subdue him in court.
	No, they used a taser.
	It wasn't a stun gun.
	So there's a stun gun and a taser?
	I think there's a big difference.
	I don't.
	A stun gun is like you put your phaser on stun.
	I like that better, actually.
	And Taser's a brand name.
	Yeah, you're right.
	They used a stun gun moniker.
	Hold on a second.
	Someone in the chat, hold on, someone is saying he was not tased for yelling at the judge.
	Well, would you please tell me why he was tased?
	I heard he was tased because he said, hey, these guys have been exonerated.
	Now there are more charges.
	He was tased because, hold on, hold on, he was tased.
	Hold on, hold on, I gotta read it before it scrolls off!
	It's gonna scroll off!
	It's gonna scroll off!
	I gotta read it now!
	It scrolled off.
	Thanks.
	Good.
	I just think...
	Well, he'll write it up again.
	Scroll it back.
	Scroll it back.
	Put it in there for Adam.
	No, go ahead.
	It was very important what you were going to say.
	Please.
	It was.
	I would love to be in a courtroom.
	Where they tase some guy in the courtroom.
	Yeah.
	And why is there no video of that?
	This is lame.
	I think a lot of courts won't let you film in there.
	That's a good one.
	I like it.
	I just think it'd be great to see some guys tase...
	Talk about your shut-up slave.
	Yeah, that is exactly what it is.
	Hey!
	Hey, let that...
	Hey, that sounded pretty cool, actually.
	It's cool.
	Listen to what the compressor does when I do that.
	That's cool.
	What does it do?
	It does like a Hammond B12 effect.
	It starts to phase it.
	Listen, I'll start it.
	That's cool.
	Believe me, nothing comes through this.
	You're just cooling your earphones.
	Hey, just let me enjoy, okay?
	It'll be cool in everyone's earbuds.
	Alright.
	I have a new metric that we need to pay attention to.
	And it kind of falls into tech news, but I have some tech news I want to do that after our break.
	Oh, okay, because I've got tech news.
	Good, good.
	So ESPN... It's really a bellwether and a metric maker that I haven't thought about when it comes to cord cutting.
	And the reason is every single cable network in the United States carries ESPN. And it's part of a larger deal and it's been that way for a long time.
	Very expensive package that ABC charges a lot of money for.
	And even if you don't watch ESPN, you're paying for it.
	And I think it's $7 minimum per month that you are paying.
	Yeah, and it's a jip if you're not watching, if you're not a sports guy.
	Yeah, of course it's a jip.
	But it's built in, and they've been going on this for a long time.
	Now, when people cut the cord, that money goes away for ESPN. There's no other way that they lose money than just having less subscribers.
	Big shock last month.
	Last month, ESPN lost 621,000 subscribers, which equals a total of 4 million subscribers for the year.
	And that is cord-cutting.
	Yeah.
	This is also happening with the NFL. Well, the NFL... Here's the problem.
	ESPN pays $1.9 billion a year for NFL. And NFL fees keep going up and up and up.
	If they keep losing subscribers at this clip, ESPN would have 86 million subscribers next year by around 2021, which is not that far off.
	74 million subscribers.
	Calculate that with your seven bucks a month.
	Just make it eight at that point.
	They will be losing so much revenue that they may not be able to pay for the fees, at least not at the current rate, for a lot of these franchises.
	They're paying baseball, they're paying basketball.
	I got the numbers.
	1.9 billion a year to the NFL for Monday Night Football.
	1.47 billion for NBA. 700 million for Major League Baseball.
	608 million for college football playoff.
	220 million to the ACC. 190 million to the Big Ten.
	120 million to the Big 12.
	Holy crap!
	So there's your metric right there.
	There's some real trouble brewing.
	Well, I'm still irked about a couple of those things you mentioned.
	One of them is they pay whatever that number is for college playoffs.
	Mm-hmm.
	What was that number?
	Yeah, if you can find it.
	Yeah.
	So they're paying the...
	$608 million for college football playoffs.
	So they're paying the NCAA all this money so they can have an exclusive, and they have an exclusive on a number of the big games that normally were on the public airwaves.
	And this includes the Rose Bowl.
	And can we just point out that the NFL is tax-exempt?
	Yes, but I'm bitching about the college guys right now.
	Oh.
	But yeah, the NFL is tax exempt.
	They're just gypping them.
	And I don't think the NFL is getting the kind of thing that these guys are getting in so far as exclusivity, except for Monday Night Football.
	But they're getting an unbelievable exclusivity of these big bowl games, which used to be a public trust.
	They were on the regular stations.
	You'd see the Orange Bowl, the Rose Bowl, this bowl or that bowl.
	TV that you could just watch and everyone could talk about it.
	It was something that united – it was kind of patriotic.
	Now they're exclusive to ESPN, and I bitch about this constantly by sending – by – I'm doing my part by being on Twitter and writing complaints to at NCAA.
	Oh, nice.
	Because they're like, what are they doing?
	Most people who get over the air or have a cheap cable subscription, it doesn't include ESPN. No, but I got my antenna yesterday.
	My over-the-air digital antenna.
	I get 37 channels here in the skyscraper.
	Including the main networks?
	Yeah, and I have...
	Well, of course, they're the local broadcasters.
	And I had a lot of college football yesterday.
	Like three different college football games.
	In high definition.
	The main networks still have every run-of-the-mill games.
	Some of them are quite good.
	But they won't have the big bowl games because it's exclusive as it says right on there.
	I'm glad that that works there because it's fantastic they have good over the air because the quality of the Dolby sound and actually the picture itself is superior to the cable.
	Way superior.
	Yeah, it's way superior.
	It's crisper, and the sound is dynamite.
	Yes.
	It's unbelievable.
	Well, these cable channels, of course, the problem they have is very much like Sirius XM. They have so much bandwidth.
	It's a lot going through the cable, through that type of infrastructure.
	So they have to compress stuff.
	Sirius Satellite, anything above channel 20, is unlistenable.
	They have to compress it so much.
	Yes, you have to do it, especially with all these channels.
	No, those antennas are good.
	I get 86 channels around here over the air.
	And the 86 channels, unfortunately, consist of about 60 channels that are in Vietnamese, Korea, home shopping.
	There's about eight shopping channels.
	There's about five religious channels.
	There's a bunch of Korean channels and Chinese channels and And there's about 20 channels that I can actually use.
	But it's still good.
	I still get the networks.
	So to round this up, just to finish up the ESPN thing, the alternative, of course, everyone says, why don't you just go over the top?
	Why don't you just go directly to the consumer through the Internet?
	There are a couple of problems.
	One...
	The cost to deliver high-speed, high-definition motion video to each individual subscriber is, I think, is going to, is, it will break the bank.
	It's, yes, a deal-breaker.
	Yeah, unless they can get all the cablehead, you know, like Netflix, and get your little servers in there, and so they don't have the infrastructure.
	I think it's very difficult.
	But the bigger point is, if they are capable to go over the top, who needs ESPN? NFL could do it themselves.
	They can make programming.
	And they're actually positioned to do it because they have an NFL channel, too.
	Hell yeah.
	So, once again, the internet breaks everything.
	I love it.
	The whole world is breaking.
	The whole world is breaking.
	We just happen to be on the upside of the swing because we have a different model.
	I'm going to show my salute by donating to No Agenda.
	Imagine all the people who could do that.
	Oh yeah, that'd be fab.
	We do have a few people to thank.
	The main bulk of the people.
	Starting with Fernando de los Reyes in Sierra Vista, Arizona, $199.99, and he expects to be an executive producer, I bet, if you toss in a penny.
	I'm happy to do that for today, so we'll move him up a slot.
	Yes, he'll be moved up a slot, and he did send a note in since he got moved up to that position.
	He says, I'm going to be in Austin.
	I hope Adam will be willing to come up for a steak dinner.
	Oh.
	I'll forward you the note.
	Yeah, I'd love to.
	You might be able to get a steak dinner.
	Well, two things I just wanted to say.
	Saturday nights, Wednesday nights, no.
	I can't have a steak dinner with you.
	And also, just to people who do this, sending me emails...
	On Sunday morning or Thursday morning at 9 a.m.
	or 10 a.m.
	It's useless.
	Please don't do that.
	I have no time to read and research what you're talking about.
	And what happens is it's old for the next show.
	It doesn't work.
	You're wasting your energy.
	Please consider doing it the night before.
	Another scolding from Adam.
	Not a scolding.
	Look, we're all producers.
	I like it as a scolding.
	We're all producers.
	This is a producer meeting.
	He says happy birthday and jobs karma for everybody, so we can do that for him.
	We'll do jobs karma, absolutely.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!

	We love seeing that.
	And it's the first time I made it through the donation segment without hacking up along in four weeks.
	Very...
	Oh, you're getting better.
	You feel better?
	Oh, much better.
	And you know why?
	One of our producers...
	Who has been through this on the East Coast with this cough, this crazy-ass cough.
	He said this is called Clear Lung.
	It's homeopathic.
	I'll put a link in the show notes.
	You can get it off Amazon.
	And it's caplets.
	But there's like licorice in them, all kinds of stuff.
	And I gotta say, three days after starting, pretty much cleared me up.
	Huh.
	Yeah.
	That actually doesn't completely surprise me.
	Some of the homeopathic stuff does work.
	And there's many people...
	I had to give a...
	It was a screwy thing.
	It was a very well-paying gig.
	It was years ago.
	IBM had sent me down to Brazil to do two days of workshops.
	And this more or less was doing four speeches.
	It's like four or five hours each day.
	And by the end of the first day, not to mention the beginning of the second day, after talking and talking and talking, it was all talking, my voice was going.
	I couldn't, you know, just too much talking.
	I couldn't do it.
	Like Hillary?
	It's probably worse.
	Maybe not.
	Maybe not as bad.
	But anyway, this woman said, oh, and she gave me this homeopathic, and I went to, they have big homeopathic pharmacies in Brazil, and it was a kind of a Kind of a salted, dried ginger, some kind of a crazy little thing.
	I still have some of these.
	And it's like a little ball of this stuff, and you chew on it.
	And it's unbelievable.
	It just clears.
	I mean, you barely talk.
	Just gone.
	You can talk for days.
	It doesn't make any difference.
	It's astonishing.
	I've been a believer.
	Ridgecrest Clear Lungs Extra Strength.
	Let me see if it says what's in there.
	Not on the Amazon page.
	But anyway, yeah, it's great.
	I'm happy.
	Thank you.
	I can't remember who sent that to me, but thank you.
	It's appreciated.
	Okay, then.
	The only good phone's a landline, and the phone should be made out of Bakelite.
	That's right, everybody.
	Forget the tech horny shows on the Sundays.
	You come to No Agenda Show for your tech news.
	I was going to make it really short, but since you have some tech news, we can't make it as short.
	Yes, Char Bax was in town, and he was a fairly well-known videographer who does tech stuff.
	He lives in China, and he used to live, I think, in Paris.
	And now he lives in London.
	And he was headed back.
	And so he said, I'm going to be at the Oakland airport.
	So if you want to get one of these iPhone 7s.
	And it was very expensive.
	The typical iPhone clone in China is $35, $40.
	This one was $71.
	It was extremely expensive.
	Now is this the small one or the plus?
	So it's the 5.5 incher.
	It's the big one.
	Mm-hmm.
	And it has the two cameras, and it's got all the things in it.
	And, which I was really stunned by, because he has one of the other iPhone 7s.
	And even with the iPhone 6, when he gave me one of those, you could pull the back off.
	And the back was made out of plastic.
	It wasn't made out of metal.
	And you pull the back off, there's a battery.
	There's all kinds of stuff inside.
	You can actually pull the back off.
	Yeah, you can actually, like, that made a difference in that in a normal iPhone.
	But it didn't look like when you saw it, oh, this looks like an iPhone, until you played with it.
	This is the 6.
	You played with it, and you noticed that the back was plastic.
	The whole thing was plastic.
	And it was, and you pulled the back off, and, you know, but it looked from a distance.
	You gave it to somebody.
	You wouldn't know.
	It looks just like the right thing.
	This guy, this expensive one, is a sealed metal.
	It is exactly, he says it's identical.
	To the 7.
	Nice.
	It's exactly the same.
	From visually.
	Visually it looks the same.
	And it's got a really nice screen.
	A much better screen than they normally have.
	These cheapies.
	And everything.
	A couple of gotchas.
	It's in black.
	It's in that good black.
	It had.
	Yeah, because you have the matte black and the shiny black.
	Which one do you have?
	It is the matte black.
	Matte black, right.
	It's really nice.
	This is a nice phone.
	Except a couple of things.
	One, I haven't tried it with the radios yet, see if the Chinese radios are set right, but it has two cameras, or there's two lenses, And only one of them works.
	Yeah, of course.
	So one is just a glass little hole?
	Yeah.
	It's got the glass in there, but it just doesn't do anything.
	And he says, so it only takes pictures from one lens, and the pictures are very poor.
	So as a substitute for your camera, it's not going to work.
	I haven't taken a picture with it yet.
	I will.
	That's really too bad because I can totally see where the shiny...
	And it's a status thing, right?
	To have an iPhone?
	Yeah, just to have the thing.
	So how about the...
	It's Android, though.
	It's not iOS.
	It's Android.
	Yes, it's an Android that has a skin.
	It's skinned as an iPhone.
	So it really takes a few pokes and shifts and this and that to discover it's Android.
	If you go into the settings immediately, it just shows you all the Android settings and you can change them.
	And you can also change to a normal Android I.O. But generally speaking, most people don't.
	They keep it as an Apple iOS.
	How about menus?
	Like if you go into settings, does it still look like the iPhone?
	Like iOS 10?
	Once you go into settings, no.
	It's Android.
	Okay, I gotcha.
	Yeah, it's very Android.
	Now, he said that the other thing he told me, which is interesting, is that now the cheapies, the $35 ones, which he had one of, which you can take the back off, it's made out of plastic.
	He says that they apparently, or whoever's making these things...
	Now they're collector's items.
	Well, they're always collector's items.
	He says that they got this thing out so fast that as an Android phone, it totally blows.
	It's no good.
	It's not like it should be.
	It barely works.
	We're talking about the cheap ones that cost $35.
	He says, people are buying the new $71 one because the other one's just junk.
	Well, here's the most important question.
	Does it have a headphone jack?
	This is interesting, because no, it doesn't.
	They decided in the olden days, when they may just clone the regular iPhones, they always, like, for example, for the charging thing, they use a regular micro USB, the one that everyone else uses on all their other phones, so you don't have to worry about losing the charger.
	Although, in one version, I remember he gave me a special Apple charger.
	No, this has that crazy little Apple connector.
	It's exactly the same.
	I think it's the same connector.
	Does not have a headphone jack.
	It only has that one opening.
	But it has the headphone jack adapter just like the Apple does.
	So it's very authentic looking in every way.
	How about when you use the touch sensor?
	Does it unlock the phone?
	I mean, obviously, it's probably not working at all.
	Is it just a button?
	It doesn't actually do any fingerprint analysis?
	I haven't found a way to turn that on or off, but it's not a button.
	It is the same pressure-sensitive non-button that Apple uses.
	I'm telling you, this thing is, of all these clones I've seen over the years, and I've seen a lot of them, This is the...
	They went out of their way to make this thing identical and it's heavy.
	Yeah, well, here's my bit of tech news.
	I got an iPhone 7 yesterday.
	Friday.
	The big one?
	Yep, the big one.
	Tina's daughter works there, so she put me on the list.
	Which means that...
	And this is...
	It's such a...
	Because I'm not...
	I'm not going to reserve one.
	Here's the process at Apple.
	It used to be, when it was good PR, we released the iPhone, we have people sleeping in front of the store, huge lines.
	Oh, look at how everyone wants this.
	Oh, so successful.
	And then you'd walk out and people would be holding them like, woo, I got it.
	But then, of course, the lines started to fill up with homeless people and placeholders.
	So there was no, and well, it was homeless people, placeholders, and Robert Scoble.
	And so it was no fun interviewing anyone anymore, so they stopped that.
	Now, you have to reserve it online, then they give you a window, and you have to be there in the window to go pick it up, which is why I refuse.
	Now, my 6, the screen's broken.
	I got it.
	It's a Panda phone.
	Ed, you know, are you familiar with the Panda phone?
	No.
	It means you have a black iPhone, you break the screen, you go to iFixit, the trailer, and they don't have any more blacks.
	I have a white one.
	Okay, put a white one on it.
	You have a white one with a black button.
	You walk into the Apple store, people are like, hey, Panda phone.
	Everyone knows what it is.
	I didn't know about this.
	Well, I didn't either.
	The thing was a mess, and I dropped it again.
	I'm ready for the new one, and specifically for the radios that it has in there, because they can access the T-Mobile LTE frequencies and transmitters, which will give me more coverage for Airstream of Consciousness.
	So this was absolutely something.
	This is a business expense I fucking needed.
	Because, you know, the Verizon thing is not always panning out, and it's very expensive to use Verizon data.
	So, very kindly, she, you know, because there's none.
	She's like, oh, I look today, rose gold.
	Like, there's no matte black.
	And I said, oh, okay, I got one matte black.
	Window, Friday afternoon, 4.30 to 5.30 at the domain.
	That means 45 minutes in traffic to get up there, and then another 45 minutes coming back.
	And it's really only a 15-minute ride without traffic, but Austin traffic is horrific.
	And I gotta say, John, it is such an upgrade from the 6 in every way.
	It's really quite astonishing.
	And I made quite a fool of myself.
	Because you have to set it up and they have a little setup table.
	Where, you know, some cool kids, actually they were pretty cool, help you how to, you know, do it and you have to have a backup and all this stuff.
	And, you know, when you start up, you have to enter in a temporary code.
	Now, I have a long code on my six.
	I think it's 12 numbers because I don't let it open up with my fingerprint because, I don't know, someone's going to arrest me and put my finger on the button that opens up.
	I don't want that.
	So it's 12 numbers.
	Come on, that makes sense, right?
	So they'll input the numbers, and I do my numbers, I do my numbers, boom, okay.
	Oh no, you can't have 12 numbers for the setup.
	It can be no more than 6.
	I do 6 numbers.
	And then, you know, you go through all this stuff, and then it reboots, and then you have to input not the code that I normally use, but the other code.
	I thought I remembered it.
	I actually got to the, you now have to wait 10 minutes.
	I did it wrong so many times.
	And everyone was looking, man, I'm starting to, you know, perspirations rolling down my family.
	Oh my God, I can't believe this.
	Because they would have to, you know, reset the phone, like do a horrible thing to reload the software, all this crazy stuff, if you can't remember the password.
	Yeah, you have to do a Comey.
	But I'm already noticing a problem with it.
	I don't know what it is.
	It's happened twice now, where all of a sudden it says, I don't recognize your fingerprint.
	You need to input your passcode.
	This happened twice this morning already, so something is not right with it.
	Well, I can't complain too much about the...
	This one.
	Although I don't know if I'm going to put it in play.
	Kids are coming over tonight, so I'll have them.
	Because I still have the giant SIM card on my old Galaxy.
	And I don't want to cut it to a small SIM card, because then if I don't like the phone, I won't be able to go back to the Galaxy.
	So I'm going to try it out and see what the radios are like.
	I'm sure it doesn't have the fancy ones you've got.
	No, that's why I got it.
	And tell me this.
	Charback said that the radios in the expensive one, the exact copy, is known to be a really good set of three different radios.
	And when he has the cheap one with the back that comes off, he says it's just terrible.
	I don't know.
	It's just different chips.
	I'd love to try it.
	I'd love to do an A-B comparison.
	I can do that when I go out on the road again.
	Yeah, well, I'll ship it to you.
	We can do that.
	Just another big advantage of this.
	Again, I think it's too big.
	Oh, no, I think it's the perfect size.
	Oh, no, I disagree.
	It's a monster.
	No, it's not as big as the 6+.
	Maybe you have a different size.
	It's five and a half inches.
	No, I never had a six plus.
	Five and a half inches is what it is.
	All I know, that's too big.
	No, it's not.
	I think it's the perfect size.
	Um...
	And what's really nice about it, and I'm a big believer in this, the speed at which it operates is significantly faster, which ultimately saves me time.
	And it's noticeable.
	Every link you press, every rendering of every page, it is noticeably faster.
	This stuff makes a difference.
	You get more stuff done.
	I'm a big fan of it.
	What I'm not a big fan of is what Tim Cook said outside the little arena there where he did his dog and pony show.
	It's right at the beginning of this clip, so I don't know if it's hard because there's no way to tune into his voice.
	So I'll play it and then I'll play a little more so you understand his voice and I'll go back.
	But this is about Apple Pay.
	Did you hear it?
	No.
	We're gonna kill cash, is what he says.
	Right off the top.
	We're gonna kill cash.
	We're gonna kill cash.
	We're gonna kill somebody else along the way, too, by the way.
	We're gonna take cash out of the system.
	Nobody likes cash.
	Nobody wants cash.
	Then he just goes on and on.
	But we're going to kill cash.
	Nobody wants cash.
	Douchebag.
	What an a-hole.
	and What an absolute a-hole.
	Well, this is the kind of thinking you have down in Silicon Valley.
	They put themselves as middlemen, of course, so they get a penny or whatever it is for a transaction.
	They get something.
	I'm using the new card.
	I got my new debit card.
	Oh, gosh, with the chip?
	You've got to insert it!
	Don't swipe it!
	Insert it!
	Yeah, they make a big stink about you.
	It takes forever.
	And you still have to sign.
	And I don't have to sign.
	At least not out here.
	There's been one instance where they had...
	Do you have to input your pin?
	Yes, I think so.
	Because every single one I've done it at does not require my pin.
	It's insert...
	I think it's hit and miss.
	I think you're right in most cases.
	But you stick the thing in, but you wait forever.
	And I bitch about this.
	I say, is this taking longer than the swiping?
	Yeah, everyone's bitching about it.
	But it's also not...
	I mean, this is not security.
	It's just as bad as swiping.
	Insert it.
	Anyone who finds your card can insert it.
	You don't need your PIN code.
	That's what I've witnessed.
	What kind of security is that?
	It's less security.
	And it takes longer.
	It's a transition phase, John.
	It's just a transition phase.
	Don't worry about it.
	It's all going to be good.
	Well, the other thing is that they have...
	The card has no...
	Embossed letters.
	None of the things sticking up.
	Yeah, so you can't use the old system.
	You can't use those old machines anymore.
	Right, you can't.
	Yeah, correct.
	It's just flat.
	And so I actually have a couple of those old machines.
	I had my basement cleaned out and I found a couple of these machines.
	And that's funny.
	Wait a minute.
	You cleaned out the basement?
	Yeah.
	What did you find?
	Oh, unbelievable.
	I mean, you must have...
	Actually, I should disclose this.
	We were talking, I think, after the show.
	And it was someone had cleaned it.
	Was it the basement?
	Did they clean your office as well?
	My office gets cleaned by my daughter every so often.
	But the...
	She does a great job.
	I'll try...
	Hold on, hold on.
	I'll try and reproduce what you said.
	Because it tickled me.
	I was cleaning...
	I thought it was office.
	Could be wrong.
	Clean up the office.
	I found a bucket with all kinds of great stuff in here.
	And I'm thinking, I look in my office...
	If there was a bucket with great stuff, I'd probably see it right away.
	How much stuff do you have that you don't see the bucket?
	Well, you should have seen the basement before it got cleaned out.
	Anyway, it was a fire hazard.
	Now, if there's a lot of wind, does a house blow away that it's no longer weighed down by the stuff in the basement?
	Yeah.
	It could happen.
	No, I find all kinds of stuff.
	I mean, stuff that's just crazy stuff.
	Any dead hookers or anything?
	No dead hookers.
	It turns out that I've collected a lot more books than I thought.
	We took probably 14 whole boxes of books to the Albany Library where they have a big book sale every year and they take these contributed books and resell them to other people.
	Sure.
	Okay.
	But anyway, the, yeah.
	Well, I have one more tech moment.
	Okay.
	Because this was a week of upgrading.
	Uh, so remember I got that VCR to do the MTV blooper reel and I was, you know, just testing it on, you know, I got one of those Sekis that we have.
	You have one too, the Seiki TV, the 4k.
	Yes.
	They're pretty inexpensive.
	And underneath that I have a Bose, uh, it's a sound bar, but it's really like a huge flat box, like the size of a pizza box.
	And just for a whole bunch of reasons of me not having the hardware anymore, I just kind of prop the TV on top of that and lean it against the wall.
	And that's been fine.
	It's on top of a table, so it's been the right height perfect.
	Now I'm going to plug this thing in, and since it's not attached, the TV kind of just can fall forward.
	So I'm holding on to it, and I think, you know what?
	Let me put it flat, and I can look at these connectors.
	And then I push it back up, and I turn the TV on, and it's ruined.
	Half of the screen is completely like black and white stripes.
	Yeah.
	Because I laid it on top of the...
	Yeah, that was a mistake.
	But the magnets and speakers do that to modern TVs as well?
	It wasn't the magnets.
	You cracked something inside that thing.
	No, it's very delicate.
	Damn.
	There's no magnets involved.
	And I thought, well, how do I degauss?
	And Christina was here.
	No way, it gets better.
	Hello, 1969.
	I don't have a magnet.
	And then I read somewhere, oh, if you take an electric mixer.
	So I'm with a mixer in front of the screen.
	Christina's like, what the hell are you doing?
	Mr.
	Tech News right there.
	Anyway, so I've got an LG, which has the WebOS 3.0.
	Holy mackerel.
	This thing kicks ass.
	I'm impressed.
	I've seen a lot of smart TVs, but this has, I mean, it's fast.
	It has everything built into it.
	Netflix immediately recognizes I want 4K. Very impressive.
	I find that's the most interesting part, that right there.
	Very, very impressive.
	Very impressive.
	Because getting 4K on the 4K set is not, you know, you can use the device that Foley sells.
	Yeah.
	There's a Roku box that'll do it.
	The Amazon Fire Stick doesn't do it.
	At least not with Netflix.
	No.
	The new Roku box does it, but nobody wants it.
	It's got a fan in it.
	Let's talk about something else, Happy.
	There's plenty of good stuff.
	We talk about the Russian airstrikes that went from the Russians.
	Here's one of my favorites.
	This is an ex-congressman who gets tweets a lot and everybody hates him.
	His name's Walsh.
	And Walsh was making some...
	Because they were trying to play up this well.
	If Hillary wins, everyone's going to get pissed off and they're going to tear down the place.
	But I think more likely they're going to tear down the place as if Trump wins, because they've already dug up his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
	There's a good...
	I'll have a picture of this in the next show, in the next newsletter, where some guy has got this show...
	A lot of people out in the suburbs have got these signs, Trump signs, and people drive onto their lawn and run them over.
	Did you see that...
	Someone sent me a picture.
	It was a series of pictures where you see someone drove over the Trump signs, but the bottom of the Trump sign was wood with nails in it.
	Yeah.
	And then you see the guy changing a tire.
	I love that.
	It was fantastic.
	I thought that was fantastic.
	Way to go, everybody.
	Way to go.
	They seem to be the most violent.
	But these other guys kind of joke around.
	So play this clip because I don't see how anyone can get worked up about this.
	On November 8th, I'm voting for Trump.
	On November 9th, if Trump loses, I'm grabbing my musket.
	You in?
	Unquote.
	The Brady campaign to prevent gun violence condemned Walsh's tweet.
	The group's president, Dan Gross, said, quote, Joe Walsh's continued vile and violent rhetoric has no place in our political discussion.
	But I guess running over Trump's fans is fine.
	Now, he's grabbing his musket.
	What is he going to manage to do with a musket?
	Oh, I think maybe he's just speaking symbolically.
	Yeah, I think that's Second Amendment speak.
	Oh, I'm going to grab my musket.
	Oh, my musket.
	Who cares?
	I did get a note from one of our producers who was playing my report about the multi-tour veterans who got the bonuses and then were being screwed.
	And he says, my buddy here who is U.S. Army Ranger Battalion, member of the U.S. Army Ranger Battalion, And it's all caps, but I'm not going to do the yelling.
	Hey, these are people who have sacrificed and given their own life for you.
	The American soldier.
	Veteran suicides.
	Pay attention.
	F.U. Hillary Clinton or whomever is responsible for this.
	Do you really want to piss off former special ops trained and very efficient assassination machines like myself?
	I took knife wounds, took a bullet, and took half my head off when bombed by an RPG inside an Humvee.
	If you come near my money, I'll group together with other covert special ops vets and we'll simply use our skills to begin assassinating top officials until you stop.
	Jeez.
	You want to be careful.
	They probably have his number.
	Want to be careful.
	Yes, be careful.
	Be careful.
	Here's one.
	This is the...
	They've talked about this before.
	Supposedly they arrested a bunch of people.
	We played clips of it, but this is the latest.
	This is the IRS scam.
	I guess it's still going on, and this is an ABC report that I thought was amusing.
	Next tonight here, the IRS scam targeting Americans in all 50 states.
	$300 million stolen from families.
	Federal agents now arresting dozens.
	And tonight, the recording of one of those phone calls from overseas targeting so many here.
	Wow.
	How much $300 million they tally it at?
	$3.50.
	Unbelievable!
	What a good scam!
	Here's ABC senior justice correspondent Pierre Thomas with the audio.
	The caller was blunt, claiming to be an IRS officer, telling Mary Jo Canary she owed back taxes and that she had to pay now.
	You have to buy a Target tax voucher.
	Your recording is better than this.
	The amount of $5,600.
	The guy tells me I'm tax deficient.
	I'm going to jail.
	By tomorrow morning, one of the revenue officers and the deputy sheriff will be coming at your place.
	She refused to pay, but in the last three years, more than 15,000 victims in the U.S. have been duped into paying bogus tax claims.
	More than 300 million scammed by crooks in India, where just this month, dozens were arrested and accused of operating similar scams.
	And the shakedowns can be dangerous.
	He said that I owed back taxes.
	If I didn't pay immediately, they were going to have a warrant for my arrest.
	When James Davis of Colorado Springs refused to pay, the scammer got revenge by impersonating him, calling 911, claiming a violent crime was about to take place at the Davis home.
	Two, three guys throwing me guns and asking for money.
	Within minutes, a SWAT team descended, only to discover it was a hoax.
	David, IRS officials assured us today that they don't make calls demanding that taxes be paid over the phone.
	They said if you get a call like that, hang up.
	Hmm.
	Bah.
	No.
	Wrong advice.
	No.
	Your advice is...
	My advice is to call them back, because they give you a number to call, because they're all just random calls.
	So they give you a number to call, so you call that number, but then when they ask who you are, now that I know that they do this other thing where they send the SWAT team to your house, because I never gave, I always gave, my name was Richard Nixon or Bill Clinton or something like that.
	If you have some local guy that you really dislike, Use his name and address.
	Yeah, there you go.
	And then, because they don't know, they don't have any, they know who you are, so they don't even know where you live.
	They don't know anything.
	This is bogus.
	So you give some, your enemy's name and address, and then you go on and on until the guy gets irked, or you tell him, or then you say, I'm not, you know, you can cuss him out, or he'll cuss you out, because that happened to me.
	At one time.
	Unrecorded one, unfortunately.
	Ah, too bad.
	It was gold.
	Comedy gold.
	So anyway, then you let the guy hang up on you at some point, and then let him call the SWAT team on your enemy.
	I can't believe they actually do that.
	I'm not recommending this, I'm just saying this is what you should do.
	Hey John, is it possible that maybe you're that guy that everyone hates on the block, and then they'll be sending SWAT teams to you?
	No, everybody loves me.
	Okay.
	I make sure that everybody...
	And it would be somebody that's not nearby.
	Okay.
	I did an informal poll on the tweeters, which I carried over to Facebook and asked people...
	Are you paying more than 20?
	Is your increase in your premiums going to be more than 22%?
	And I would say about 40% said yes.
	That's just informal, of course.
	A lot of people pointed me towards something interesting.
	As you know, we have the exchanges open on November 1st.
	Depending on what happens with emails, and maybe the emails aren't meant to distract from this, who knows?
	People will be paying a lot of money for their premiums for healthcare insurance.
	It's not healthcare, it's healthcare insurance.
	And a lot of people said there's these short-term Insurance policies you can get for 30 days.
	And it's like 100 bucks or 150 bucks.
	And it still has a very high deductible.
	But if you're in a car crash or cancer or anything like that, it's going to pay for a lot.
	So I thought that was interesting.
	I've never heard of this.
	Yeah, I can tell you.
	Well, I have a couple links in the show notes you can take a look.
	So that's one option.
	Of course, you can pay the penalty, $695.
	And this question came up at the White House press briefing, and Josh Earnest made it very clear what you slaves need to do.
	We're encouraging people to shop around, whether they have health care or not.
	And that opportunity is available at healthcare.gov today.
	And finally, we know that the system overall benefits Everybody's costs go down when more people sign up.
	So that's why we're making such an aggressive effort to include people all across the country, particularly young people, to encourage them to avail themselves of this opportunity.
	All of this is particularly important when you consider that the penalty that is imposed for people who don't sign up for health care is quite significant.
	This year it's about $700.
	And I think our argument is pretty simple, which is Why would you pay $700 to Uncle Sam when you don't need to?
	You can avoid having to make that $700 payment if you go and sign up for health care, which of course also affords you a variety of benefits that protect you and your family in the event of illness.
	So, sign up or pay us, slave!
	Shut up, slave!
	One month.
	The penalty is one month of health care insurance.
	Boy, let me see if that makes sense.
	What should I get?
	Let me think.
	They're so clueless.
	I don't know what they're thinking.
	Well, these people have no idea what it's like to not be able to afford it.
	That's the problem.
	They have no idea.
	It's outrageous, the prices.
	Mimi even chimed in on the face bag.
	She also said it was going up in Washington State.
	And here's the kicker.
	She's paying about the same I am, only my deductible is $4,000 higher than hers.
	Huh.
	They must be listening to the show.
	Let's give it to them.
	That guy's late and have long to live.
	That's gouging.
	Is he gougable?
	Yeah.
	That guy, yeah.
	Now, I only have one more clip.
	We don't have to play it.
	I thought it was one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.
	It's long, though.
	It's three and a half minutes, which is Kate Hopkins of the Daily Mail in an interview with Holly Garani.
	Oh, yeah, Katie.
	I'm a big fan of hers.
	I'm an even bigger fan than I already was.
	Did you see her in this interview on CNN with Holly Garani?
	Yeah, I saw it.
	Should we play this for the people who have not seen this?
	It's long.
	I would have clipped it myself.
	I thought it was a little...
	You're right, it's long.
	But she does give it to her.
	People haven't heard Katie Hopkins.
	She's on the London's whatever that thing is.
	LBE. She's one of the main persons on the talk show.
	And she is also hated by half of England.
	Yeah, and she writes for the Daily Mail, which is hated by half of England, but all of England reads.
	Yeah, let's play it.
	Katie Hopkins joins me now.
	You think he's going to win?
	I think he's going to win.
	I think you guys are in for a big surprise, which I'm quite excited about.
	I think we've seen a very similar thing here in the UK with Brexit.
	We saw a lot of the liberal press kind of sneering at Brexiteers.
	We saw a lot of the sneering that we see from the Clinton News Network.
	And I think it's something...
	That's CNN. You're calling us the Clinton News Network.
	And I think this, uh, is she a lesbian?
	The, um, Katie?
	I can't tell.
	Yeah, she makes a reference at a certain point, but she's really, she's aggressive, that's for sure.
	Not that all lesbians are aggressive, but she's...
	I wouldn't want to be on the wrong side of an argument with her.
	I would have my ass kicked.
	Exactly correct.
	Why?
	Why do you call us the Clinton News Network when we prominently featured a Florida poll that showed Donald Trump had a couple And earlier on this evening, on Twitter, you were telling me, oh, Hillary Clinton has a 12-point lead.
	And now you're having to look at Florida polls showing a two-point lead.
	Those are two different...
	That wasn't very hard for you.
	Those are entirely different things.
	One is a national poll that showed she had one poll that showed she had a 12-point lead.
	Others show a nine-point lead.
	I think we're all very bored of the polls.
	I think none of us need to take any notice of them whatsoever.
	We learned that in the UK with Brexit.
	We learned it indeed with our general election.
	What I will say, having sat in the Republican Convention in Cleveland and watched your news network, it is entirely biased, I think, in coverage.
	And I think Trump's doing a great job.
	And I think what we saw today from him opening the hotel...
	But I ask how, because you keep making these accusations, and quite frankly, you cannot back them up.
	Because you just said, I'll just give you an example, straight out.
	Not in airtime, not in how often we...
	I will give you an example straight off the bat of what you just said.
	No, no, no.
	I won't let you finish because I want to answer your question.
	No, no, no.
	You said that you had them up.
	Ali Gharani is no match for this woman, that's for sure.
	No match, no match.
	I can't go ahead and back them up then because I've worked for 18 years and I can tell you...
	Nothing but balance.
	So you were just saying how Trump really struggles with women.
	You guys seem to love to present us women, and I am vaguely a woman, as victims.
	I don't see myself as a victim.
	Many women, hardworking women, don't see themselves as victims.
	And we could also look at other polls that say 70% of individuals find Clinton to be utterly distasteful.
	I find her abhorrent to look at.
	Her little smile there does nothing for me.
	But Katie Hopkins, nobody's saying everybody likes her.
	You know, this is in England, in the UK, I believe.
	Because Holly Garani, isn't she on CNN International?
	She's not on the U.S. No, she's not on Locus.
	This is CNN International.
	So where is the control room?
	Where is the control room?
	Where are they?
	No one's producing this right.
	Well, I don't know.
	I have no idea.
	That's a good question.
	They're letting her go.
	Maybe it's the opposite approach.
	Wow, catfight.
	Let it go.
	Do not stop this.
	That's what I think.
	I think you just did.
	You said women love Hillary.
	Women do not love Hillary Clinton.
	I never said that.
	You're literally misquoting me.
	Tell me a quote.
	I gave you a poll where she had a 12-point advantage over Donald Trump.
	There really are many lists.
	Move on from polls.
	I'm bored of your polls.
	Okay, but you just quoted something I said that was completely actually incorrect.
	Tell me the correct quote.
	That women love Hillary Clinton?
	Wrong word there.
	Now she's just being mean.
	What does vaguely a woman mean, do you think?
	I'm vaguely a woman.
	I think it was just a British sarcasm.
	You left Clinton, remember, not Trump.
	This conversation is actually going completely off the rails because it seems like we've just entered a post-fact world where no matter what we say to you, you will actually deny facts and then fabricate quotes and put them in my mouth.
	I think where we now sit in politics is in a world of post-truth politics where we surround ourselves with the truth that we want to hear.
	People enter an echo chamber and hear the stuff they said Back to them that they want to hear, which is why people that support Clinton listen to you, and why people that support Trump might listen to me or Fox, for example.
	Anyway, do ask me some questions you want to ask.
	Sure, let's talk about Brexit, because, no, first let me ask you about your support for Donald Trump.
	There you go.
	What is it about the things that he says?
	Why do you support Donald Trump?
	Because you're sitting here in Britain, Of course, you were pro-Brexit and all those things, and you have said some absolutely vicious and disgusting things about immigrants.
	You've called them cockroaches.
	You've said they were feral.
	And that's just rude.
	It's just rude.
	But if you call Trump supporters deplorable or you call Trump Hitler, it's okay.
	You've said suicidal.
	Inmates should just go ahead and kill themselves.
	I think we should turn back the boat.
	People with dementia are blocking beds.
	Absolutely disgusting things.
	In your opinion, it's disgusting.
	In my opinion, I speak the truth.
	Anybody who calls a human being a cockroach...
	I don't think you speak for everything.
	Can you believe this?
	Anyone who calls a human being a cockroach is no good.
	Why do you support Donald Trump?
	Because for me, as a small business owner, he really speaks to me and the people like me that work hard for a living.
	He gets things done.
	I think we've just seen Obamacare, it crucifies small business owners.
	You're going to get more of that with Hillary Clinton.
	You're not going to get that with Trump.
	And I think that's very important.
	He also gets stuff done.
	What we've seen with Clinton, Essentially, she's just the wife of an ex-president.
	She was there supporting her husband whilst he was in the Oval Office with Monica Lewinsky on her knees.
	Wow, she conveniently forgets the senator and secretary of state thing.
	That's interesting.
	Okay, well, we're going to get a strong woman I need.
	Are you going to cut me off?
	No, not at all.
	You just said she's someone's wife when she was secretary of state.
	She was someone's wife, and he had affairs in the Oval Office, and she stood by him.
	That is not a strong woman for me, honey.
	Honey.
	But if you call me honey, that is just very...
	You find that hard?
	No, I find that extremely rude.
	All right, let's get this back on track.
	There's more.
	I'm done.
	You get the idea.
	But she was great.
	You get the idea.
	It's actually the video kind of helps in this case.
	I think anyone who would go toe-to-toe with her, a pro to an extreme of being argumentative, and the British are pretty good arguers if they want to be, I think it's crazy.
	I don't know why you'd book her.
	I wouldn't book her in a million years.
	It was dumb.
	It was dumb, but I liked it.
	It was a third time.
	And I'm like, I still like it.
	It's still great.
	I've got two clips left.
	Uplifting, I hope.
	Yes, well, the last one for sure.
	Okay.
	The one about the mass extinction.
	There's nothing more uplifting than that.
	Let's play this.
	This, I think, is a carryover.
	AT&T Time Warner Irony of the Day.
	Okay.
	In media news, AT&T has agreed to purchase Time Warner for $85 billion.
	Wow.
	If approved by federal antitrust regulators, the merger would give AT&T control over Warner Brothers film and television studios, along with CNN, TNT, HBO, and other brands.
	Critics warn of further limits to competition and higher prices for customers.
	The merger could also allow AT&T to give preferential treatment to streaming video from Time Warner's companies, which would violate the principles of net neutrality.
	On the campaign trail, a spokesperson for Hillary Clinton said the proposed merger raises questions and concerns.
	Donald Trump's campaign took a harder line, saying in a statement, quote, Donald Trump will break up the new media conglomerate oligopolies that have gained enormous control over our information, unquote.
	Wow, that's really happening, huh?
	Well, Now wait a minute.
	So then AT&T buys Time Warner.
	Do they then also get Spectrum in the deal, which is the new Time Warner cable?
	Does that become AT&T? Yeah.
	Oh, jeez.
	AT&T's horrible.
	Welcome to the Hive.
	AT&T's horrible.
	Oh, my God.
	No, it's not.
	How can that stand?
	You tell me.
	But is it now approved?
	Well, it's not absolutely approved.
	I think it's being held up for some...
	waiting for some more donations to the Clinton Foundation.
	And you know that Google Fiber has...
	Fired a whole bunch of people and they're slowing it all down.
	Oh yeah, they're bailing out of it.
	They gave up.
	Because they won't be able to make money.
	The governments and FCC have completely screwed them out of it.
	Yeah.
	I mean, I know they weren't, for some reason, adept at managing this.
	Well, they're one of the biggest lobbying groups, or have one of the biggest lobbying groups.
	Yes, and they got Eric Schmidt, who's a buddy with all these people.
	Hmm.
	He's a big Democrat.
	Well, that is very worrisome, for sure.
	Something's up.
	But, you know, I stick close to the dude's name, Ben, and the sysadmins will always have access.
	It'll always work.
	It just won't be on the same level as the facebag or the Twitters or any of that.
	Okay.
	Apparently not.
	There's no stopping it.
	So here's the joke of the day.
	This is the mass extinction.
	Now, first of all, this is like I think something that came out earlier and like 10 years ago and they've been pushing it and pushing it.
	But now the problem with this report is the mass extinction.
	We're going to lose 75% of our species, as you hear, by 2020.
	But it's already 2016.
	So this doesn't seem very unlikely.
	But still, that's what they're promoting because it's all about global warming.
	A shocking new study by the World Wildlife Fund finds more than two-thirds of the world's wildlife could be gone by 2020.
	According to the WWF, there has already been a 58% overall decline in the numbers of fish, mammals, birds, and reptiles worldwide.
	WWF conservation scientist Martin Taylor told CNN, quote, This is definitely human impact.
	We're in the sixth mass extinction.
	There's only been five before this, and we're definitely in the sixth.
	The science is in!
	Science!
	Well, let me see.
	You can't just gloss over that.
	It's never going to happen.
	The mass extinction, which usually is the result of a Texas-sized asteroid hitting the planet.
	Mass extinction.
	Oh, yeah.
	Okay.
	That's pretty unbelievable.
	We are all going to die.
	That's for sure.
	All right.
	Well, I'll put my money on it.
	I'll put $5 on Wiener.
	Suicide before Thursday show.
	I'll take that bet if you want to make that bet.
	That's all I got left.
	Okay.
	That's all I got left.
	I'm in.
	Okay.
	Groovalicious.
	$5.
	The usual?
	Mr.
	Dvorak, the usual?
	Yes.
	All right.
	Anything we need to watch tonight?
	No, it's still too early in the football season.
	There's nothing going on.
	Oh, yeah.
	I think this is the third game.
	Maybe.
	I think it's tonight.
	Oh, the Cubs.
	Yeah, the Cubs.
	Cubs.
	Yeah, so they had the two games in Cleveland.
	The Cubs won one.
	Now Cleveland has won the first two games in Chicago.
	Tonight, they win the World Series if they can beat Chicago three in a row in Chicago.
	Wow.
	Which is It should also mean that the Cubs have not won a game in a World Series in Chicago forever.
	But we'll see.
	They should be able to win this game and get back to Cleveland to lose there.
	Hmm.
	Alright.
	But you never know.
	I mean, I would like to say that I believe they're going to go all full seven games.
	And that would purely be for the distraction from everything else that's out there at the moment.
	That would be a fine thing to see.
	And I think everyone would like that.
	Can you rig baseball?
	Can you rig baseball the way everything else is rigged?
	It's not as easy.
	Very difficult.
	You have to have too many people involved.
	Now, one of the things you should note is that, and this is to our Boston listeners, I wonder what you guys think right now.
	Because the Cleveland team has the ex-Boston manager who used to, who got the Boston team into two World Series, and the Cubs have the ex-Boston general manager running the show.
	What did you guys in Boston do?
	We'll talk to you again on Thursday, everybody.
	Coming to you from the Crackpot Condo here in the skyscraper downtown Austin, Texas.
	It is in FEMA Region 6, in case you're looking for it on the map.
	And look for the glow of me watching the Cubs tonight.
	In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley, I'll be here reading Aristotle.
	I'm John C. Dvorak.
	We'll be back on Thursday.
	Remember us at Dvorak.org slash NA.
	Until then, adios, mofos!
	We need to kill them.
	Bomb them.
	and bomb them again.
	We need to kill them.
	We need to kill them.
	Bomb them, bomb them, and bomb them again, eh?
