	Yeah, you'll see.
	Adam Curry, John C. Devorak.
	It's Thursday, February 2nd, 2017.
	This is your award-winning Gitmo Nation Media Assassination Episode 900!
	This is No Agenda.
	Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs!
	And broadcasting live from the darkest corners of the United, here in downtown Austin, Tejas, Capo, the drone star, stay in the morning, everybody!
	I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley, where Berkeley got burned down.
	Almost.
	Well, not quite.
	Well, it should have been.
	I'm John C. DeVore.
	It's Crackpot and Buzzkill!
	In the morning!
	Dow!
	Yay!
	Well, there's your little bonus for the people listening on the live stream.
	Yeah, there's a definite bonus to listening on the live stream.
	I don't want to tell you this.
	I know I don't want to tell you how to do your business, but you had a leak of your phone line, accidental, I'm sure, onto the stream.
	No, you're kidding me.
	How can that be?
	It's unbelievable.
	You should have been there.
	I was watching the news.
	It's all over the world.
	For those who have not listened to the live stream, just as we're getting to start, I get a call, clearly a solicitation.
	And actually, where was it from?
	It said it was from...
	It was a boiler room, you could tell.
	Oh, it was a boiler room.
	I just wanted to see what it said on the...
	So these guys, well, you're looking that up.
	The ACLU, who organized all these protests over the weekend, largely to get more money, they have now gotten more money in their coffers than they've ever seen before.
	Yeah, and I donated to ACLU last year.
	And it was partially because it was one of those, you know, when I was doing the, kind of looking at these people on the street here in Austin, they say, oh, we're from Planned Parenthood, oh, we're from Save the Children, oh, from the ACLU, but they're not.
	They're just college kids from a local organization who then sends a portion, you know, I guess they take a fee and maybe.
	Yeah, maybe.
	Yeah.
	And so this guy calls, and he's thanking me for my donation, and then he just starts hammering with, you know, the administration hates gays, we're going to get rid of healthcare, get rid of women's healthcare, LGB. He didn't have a T and a Q. They're stirring it up.
	Oh, and I said, well, why are you organizing protests?
	I don't like it.
	Well, we have to!
	It's not your lawyers.
	I like that, but anyway, maybe I'll cut that up and we'll do something with it.
	Maybe.
	You had it recorded?
	Good.
	Oh, yeah, of course I did.
	Hey, John.
	So, yeah, you mentioned in the opening there about the protests in Berkeley.
	Well, first, congratulations on show 900.
	Oh, I almost forgot.
	Yes, congratulations.
	Blow that little horn.
	Oh, I have a horn here somewhere, don't I? You know, I was actually getting the horns ready when that guy from ACLU called.
	I know.
	I know.
	All right, everybody, congratulations.
	Show number 900.
	We love to celebrate.
	We love to celebrate.
	Now, since you were, you know, Berkeley is like pretty much where you live, right?
	Yeah.
	I thought we'd do a little live report.
	Oh, let me think if I... I heard one good lie.
	Actually, I could do one, but I think the crappy one that CNN did...
	Well, I'd like to compare.
	Well, we'll do CNN first, and then we'll see if we can get our special correspondent on a live report.
	How does that sound?
	Okay, you can get me on.
	Alright, what is the clip from CNN? It should say CNN Berkeley.
	It should have the word Berkeley in there.
	Uh...
	Yeah.
	Yeah, I wish it were that easy.
	I don't see it, actually.
	No.
	I'm just saying, I don't see it.
	I don't see Berkeley or...
	I don't even see CNN in there.
	Oh, man.
	Did you not send it?
	I know I sent it.
	It's not here.
	The problem is I didn't have my clips in front of me.
	Now I do.
	Okay.
	Milo.
	Oh!
	Yeah, it's a...
	I'm sorry.
	Right, there you go.
	...Donald Trump, as much about the White House, as much about Steve Bannon, as it is about this individual student.
	You mentioned that he was talking about, he was tweeting about free speech.
	That is something that is...
	This is the birthplace of the free speech movement from the 1960s.
	So what you hear from people here is that they want to hear diverse opinions.
	What they don't appreciate about Milo Yiannopoulos is that he is a troll.
	He's an internet troll.
	He makes fun of overweight people.
	He picks on lesbians.
	He uses language that is extremely offensive to a lot of people and to...
	The student groups I've talked to, they say that they have to feel like they need to protect marginalized groups.
	And so this wasn't exactly what they wanted, but a lot of the students said they wanted to stop him from speaking by any means.
	All right, Keong, I want you to stand by, and we're going to monitor those speeches again.
	This is coming out of UC Berkeley.
	There was a speech that was scheduled there.
	It has been canceled because of this violent protest.
	Now, is Berkeley not the ground zero of free speech, John?
	Supposedly.
	Am I missing something?
	Okay, why don't you...
	Okay, here, I'll be the interviewee.
	You can get a hold of me.
	You've got some background noise.
	We're going to go now, live, to Berkeley, where the situation seems to be getting a bit out of hand.
	I'm going to see John C. Borg.
	John, can you hear me?
	What are you learning?
	Yes, John, what are you learning?
	Oh, it's a huge mess here, Adam.
	What's happened, apparently, is that the students are sick and tired of anyone telling them anything except the rote Hillary standard talking points.
	John, John, John, you're breaking up just a little bit.
	Are you safe there, John?
	I'm barely safe because they're beating up anyone over 40 years old.
	And John, have you seen Milo anywhere, the instigator of this?
	Our understanding and our reporting indicates that Milo's dead.
	All right, John, thank you.
	Thank you for that report.
	That's what we're told.
	All right.
	Be safe.
	That's John C. Dvorak out at Berkeley.
	Not bad.
	Not bad.
	Wait until you hear the mix.
	It's pretty good.
	Maybe he'll be okay with the noise.
	That's good.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Well, this free speech thing is dead.
	No.
	All right, everybody.
	Let me just bury this free speech thing.
	All right.
	It was a good little thing we tested for a couple hundred years.
	It's no good.
	It doesn't protect marginalized groups, according to the CNN woman.
	Also, he makes fun of fat people, apparently.
	And lesbians.
	And he's a troll.
	And lesbians.
	He's gay, by the way.
	She should have said he's a fag.
	That would have been even funnier.
	They lit up the administration building.
	Yes, in gay colors.
	In gay colors.
	Rainbow.
	For this guy.
	The rainbow, yeah.
	And I think you could have taken the same report, and in fact, let's do it.
	Let's do another report.
	I'll give you the different angle.
	Okay, hold on a second.
	Where is my...
	You there?
	Yeah, I'm sorry.
	I'm just getting my sound effects.
	Getting your stuff together?
	I gotta get my sound effects together.
	Dead air.
	Alright, we're gonna try it again, everybody.
	We go now to Berkeley, where our man on the scene is John C. Dvorak.
	John, what are you learning?
	Am I on?
	You're on, John.
	You're on.
	You're on.
	Adam.
	Can you hear me?
	Yes.
	Berkeley, a protest against the gay community has been begun.
	There's rioting.
	They're throwing all kinds of bottles.
	They're busting up the place because Milo, whatever his last name is.
	Now, John, John, where do you think this LGBTQIAP hate comes from?
	I'm not sure because the Bay Area is known for its kind of diversity and its intolerance, but there is some anti-gay group here that is wrecking the place, to be quite honest about it.
	I guess they hate gays at Cal.
	I don't know when this began.
	John, John, John.
	John, as a Muslim, are you afraid there?
	Do you fear for your life as a Muslim?
	If I was gay, I would.
	Thank you very much, John.
	Stay gay and stay safe.
	We could do this, man.
	That's pretty much the same as the news they gave us.
	That would have been just as valid.
	Interpreted that way?
	I've never seen that building lit up with gay colors.
	It was pretty.
	I thought it looked pretty.
	Wow.
	Yeah.
	In Euroland, they're also protesting Trump.
	It's around the world, as you know.
	I don't know if you watch TV, according to my UCLA guy.
	You have to watch a lot of TV, apparently.
	I may have to put that...
	ACLU. Why don't I put that whole call at the end of the show?
	Just as an extra bonus.
	It's going to be long.
	But it's at the end of the show.
	It's after the show is over, pause, and then a whole extra bit.
	Maybe.
	You could also go next week in the next show, I mean.
	That's true.
	In Brussels, I mean, in Belgium, in Antwerp, also a big protest, very novel.
	I'm sure you couldn't understand that because it was Flemish.
	But you could.
	Cafes are now refusing to sell Coca-Cola as a protest against Trump.
	Coca-Cola are the biggest international corporations in the world.
	All in on globalism.
	You picked the wrong candidate there.
	I love that.
	Well, whatever.
	I love it.
	It's hilarious.
	Yeah.
	Everyone is freaking out.
	And I was glad that Mateo, my nephew, was here for the week.
	I didn't have much time to...
	You know, I would check in with stuff every once in a while.
	Like, no change.
	Still nutty.
	Everyone's still crazy.
	Look at the face bag.
	Ugh.
	Actually, here's Chris Matthews who claims that all of D.C. is in trouble.
	Donald Trump is tonight conducting a campaign of shock and awe against this country's institutions.
	Shock and awe!
	That's right.
	There's a lot of these memes that are being brought in, which I have a couple more later on.
	But shock and awe, that was our first attack on Baghdad.
	No, not Baghdad.
	Was it Baghdad?
	It was Iraq.
	It was Baghdad.
	That was shock and awe.
	It was 1990.
	They can throw carpenter tools.
	Shock and awe.
	Oh, very funny.
	Donald Trump is tonight conducting a campaign of shock and awe against this country's institutions.
	He is on offense in a capital city not used to being suddenly thrown on defense.
	The capital of this country is suddenly bound up in fear, rage, and unbalance, wondering if If this new president accepts any limit to his power, is he ready to attack the media, mock the Democratic leader of the Senate, accuse the acting attorney general of betrayal, seize power over immigration policy, and push the Republican Congress to near the breaking point?
	The answer to all these questions is a resounding yes, he is and he is.
	Tonight, within this hour, we hope to know who Trump will name as the decisive member of the United States Supreme Court.
	We're frightened.
	The only branch of government over which he has yet to grab control.
	Grab control!
	And the political and legal chaos in the wake of President Donald Trump's executive order of last Friday, the president yet to, is set to announce his choice to fill the vacancy of the Supreme Court in just an hour from now.
	He came for your pussy and he grabbed control!
	Unbelievable.
	That's actually a good clip.
	That is a panicked, crazy man who's worried about them shutting down MSNBC. Maybe if he excites people, they'll keep the network going.
	Yeah.
	I actually have a second clip, just because we're on him, because he mentioned...
	The Supreme Court.
	You remember when Rachel Maddow and Chris Matthews, both MSNBC, had this big elaborate setup where he first asked Trump a hypothetical about abortion and if women should be punished, which Trump completely blew.
	Oh yeah.
	And that is now...
	He was in his own world answering that question.
	You could just tell he was thinking about something else, thinking, what am I doing on here?
	Yeah, they should all be punished.
	Well, it doesn't matter.
	He screwed it up, and now the chickens are coming home to roost.
	But the setup at the time, when that happened, you'll remember Rachel Maddow opened her show with, I had to run back to Hillary.
	Remember that?
	And I had to show her this tape as soon as possible so that we could then get her response.
	And it was a beautiful setup.
	And I think that was...
	It must have been 50 shows ago.
	I don't even remember where it was.
	It was a while.
	But now, Chris Matthews, who knows...
	Really well that there was a hypothetical and he set Trump up, is using this as ammo with the CEO of EMILY's List.
	And of course, again, EMILY's List stands for Easy Money is Like Yeast.
	The acronym stands for Easy Money is Like Yeast.
	Sorry, that is true.
	There are so many issues that are affected by the Supreme Court.
	Of course, there's LGBT issues, there's women's issues, of course, generally, there's voting rights issues, there's Citizens United.
	And this guy could work for the ACLU. That's exactly what that guy was saying to me on the phone.
	It's about government money going into government elections.
	It's every issue you could have for voting against somebody.
	It means you'd have to be foremost for all those issues on that person's side to vote for them.
	It just seems to me the onus is on the person who wants to get confirmed.
	It's much harder to get confirmed than not confirmed.
	Your thoughts?
	Well, I think that's exactly right.
	I mean, what we're looking for, even at Emily's List, is we're going to have a hearing.
	We've got a lot of questions.
	The American people have a lot of questions.
	Trump made it clear that he was going to appoint a judge for this position that was going to dismantle Roe v.
	Wade.
	That alone...
	I don't think...
	I haven't heard that.
	I haven't heard that.
	I'm going to get someone in there who will dismantle Roe v.
	Wade.
	I haven't heard that.
	In fact, I've heard the opposite, which will come in a moment.
	Is a huge question.
	That is the law of...
	Now listen to Matthews use his own trap, which was well set up, as ammo against the president...
	It is settled law.
	And we need to know, as women and as families in this country, where he stands on that.
	But also, on voting rights, civil rights, workers' rights, what he's going to do with corporate America.
	There's a lot of questions here.
	Stephanie, you and I know each other.
	You also know what Trump said when I asked him about abortion rights and women.
	And he said in his first impulsive answer to me, he later cleaned it up, women should be punished.
	So, hold on a second, Chris Matthews.
	His impulsive answer was because it was a hypothetical, and then he later cleaned it up because it was a hypothetical.
	And you trapped him, and you trapped him good, but you're being a little dishonest here by saying, well, he just wants to punish women.
	He later cleaned it up.
	Women should be punished.
	And yet, everybody saw that.
	Everybody in America probably saw that comment by him, and he won.
	No, they didn't.
	Hold on a second.
	How many people does he think watches his stuff?
	He thinks he's all that in a bag of chips.
	No, no.
	Everybody in America, because I'm Chris Matthews.
	Everybody in America probably saw that comment by him, and he won!
	What do you say to voters out there that went out and supported a guy who said something like that, given the Supreme Court nomination coming up?
	Yeah, I mean, during the election, he also talked about a Muslim ban, and people around the country who voted for him didn't think that was real, and look at what we're dealing with.
	A Muslim ban.
	Oh, really?
	This is exactly...
	They didn't think you'd do it when he said he'd do it.
	I'm pretty sure it's not a Muslim ban.
	Do it.
	I think that's a lot of voters.
	And you can see already with his disapproval numbers, over 50, that this is not where America is.
	Let's flash back briefly to hear what the president said about Roe v.
	Wade.
	But I was asked as a hypothetical, hypothetically.
	Hypothetically.
	Yeah, you screwed it up.
	It's what happened.
	The laws are set now on abortion.
	And that's the way they're going to remain until they're changed.
	Because you had said you wanted, you told Bloomberg in January that you believed abortion should be banned at some point in pregnancy.
	Where would you do the ban?
	Well, first of all, I would have liked to have seen, you know, this be a state's right.
	I would have preferred state's right.
	I think it would have been better if it were a...
	That, by the way, is his real answer, consistently, because I looked at a lot of different clips to go back and make sure I wasn't listening with bias at the time.
	He's very consistent about he would like that to be a state's issue, state's rights, which, by the way, the ACLU doesn't seem to understand that some things are just left to the states in general.
	To the states.
	No, they don't want that.
	No, of course they don't want that.
	No nations, no borders.
	You need a national government.
	You don't need these states' rights.
	The Tenth Amendment should be tossed.
	mentioned in the Constitution, the 10th Amendment was just reiteration.
	Yeah.
	And because we want everything centralized, so that way we can better integrate.
	Centralization makes it easier to integrate into a one-world government.
	And I don't think-- Not that I'm going to pound on this drum, but I'm going to do it again today.
	Yeah, but again, I think that Roe v. Wade is pretty solid because it's about the privacy of a woman.
	A woman has rights, like a man.
	And it's about her privacy.
	And I don't see how that can come into play.
	And I think it will stay in law.
	But let's listen to the final 30 seconds here.
	First of all, I would have liked to have seen this be a states' rights.
	I would have preferred states' rights.
	I think it would have been better if it were up to the states.
	But right now, the laws are set.
	And that's the way the laws are.
	Do you have a feeling how they should change?
	There are a lot of laws you want to change.
	You've talked about them on everything from libel to torture.
	Anything you'd want to change on a law?
	At this moment, the laws are set.
	I think we have to leave it that way.
	Do you think it's murder, abortion?
	I have my opinions on it, but I'd rather not comment on it.
	You said your very pro-life view is that it's abortion.
	Abortion is murder.
	But I do have my opinions on it.
	I just don't think it's appropriate for them.
	Oh, come on!
	But you don't disagree with that proposition, that it's murder?
	What proposition?
	That abortion is murder.
	No, I don't disagree with it.
	All right.
	So there's his stance, but he's very clear.
	The laws are set.
	Laws are the laws.
	Yeah, and it really doesn't pertain to what is being talked about.
	In my professional legal opinion, as you know, I'm a lawyer.
	Indeed.
	Okay, well let's go to the Gorsuch thing since you mentioned it.
	They're going to have to do, because Schumer and the Democrats, even though Gorsuch pretty much matches all the criteria, although he's definitely a conservative, The Democrats are going to vote no, and this is going to institute the nuclear option, which is...
	Which I wanted to say something about.
	The headlines everywhere are, Trump says go nuclear!
	Go nuclear!
	Which, of course, is very...
	You know, it's like it's playing on people's fears about nuclear war.
	It is called the nuclear option.
	That is a congressional term that has been around for a long time.
	Slang.
	Yeah, slang.
	Decades and decades.
	If you don't mind, before you start off, I want to play the genesis of this quote, which was not Trump's quote.
	It was a journalist who asked him a question.
	And Trump, foolishly, of course.
	You've got to learn how memes are made.
	He doesn't understand this very well.
	He could do so much better if he launched the right memes.
	We don't need him to get too good.
	Okay.
	Well, anyway.
	As you pointed out last night, social research was confirmed on unanimous voice in 2006.
	Now a number of Democrats say they're going to oppose him.
	What would you say to those Democrats, and would you encourage Senator McConnell to evoke the nuclear option if he feels he can't get 60 votes?
	The journalist says the nuclear option, and this quote has been turned around to Trump saying go nuclear.
	I think there's a certain dishonesty if they go against their vote from not very long ago.
	And he did get a unanimous endorsement, and he's somebody that should get.
	I mean, you can't do better from an educational, from an experience, from any standpoint.
	A great judge would be a great justice.
	So, no, I feel that it's very dishonest if they go about doing that.
	And, yes, if we end up with the same gridlock that they've had in Washington for the last...
	Longer than eight years, in all fairness to President Obama, a lot longer than eight years.
	But if we end up with that gridlock, I would say, if you can, Mitch, go nuclear.
	Because that would be an absolute shame if a man of this quality was caught up in the web.
	So I would say it's up to Mitch.
	So, go nuclear is your...
	I have a note, a programming note for...
	Sweaty Sean Spicer.
	Get the camera clicks out of there.
	Sweaty Sean.
	He does appear to be sweaty.
	Get the cameras out.
	Get that shutter sound out of there.
	There's no need for it.
	It's 2017.
	They should be silent.
	It's annoying.
	Unless they like it for some reason.
	There's plenty of mirrorless cameras that are professional that can be used for these events.
	You don't need the shutters.
	What are they using?
	Hasselblads?
	No, no.
	DSLRs make a noise.
	But that's digital, is it not?
	They have a shutter and they slap a mirror.
	It makes that noise.
	But the mirrorless ones don't necessarily make so much noise.
	Yes, they have a shutter.
	Okay.
	It's not like they turn the sensor on and off.
	The sensor's open, it's lit, and then the shutter goes past, and then the light hits it, and then the shutter closes.
	It makes a noise.
	Not necessarily a lot of noise, as much as you're hearing, but some of them look pretty noisy.
	Yeah, we're just going to have this during our show.
	But when you hear the motors, then you know it's a fake.
	Uh-huh.
	That's good.
	We'll just have it during our show.
	It's fantastic.
	Yeah, well, as though you have somebody in your room there.
	Yeah, hey, excuse me.
	That's my bad side.
	All right, let's get into Gorsuch.
	This has got your clip kind of incorporated, but not too much so.
	This is the controversy?
	This is just Gorsuch, I think.
	Is that what it says?
	It says Gorsuch's controversy.
	Yeah, that would be it.
	On the right, the Judicial Crisis Network is spending $10 million on advertising, targeting Red State Senate Democrats like West Virginia's Joe Manchin, who met with Gorsuch Wednesday.
	We have a lot to talk about.
	We try to get to know each other.
	Arguing for his nominee, President Trump said if Democrats filibuster, requiring 60 votes to end debate, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has an option.
	I think there's a certain dishonesty if they go against their vote from not very long ago.
	But if we end up with that gridlock, I would say, if you can, Mitch, go nuclear.
	Now, under the so-called nuclear...
	Well, that's actually a good clip, John, because it shows how, what is it, CBS? Yes.
	Shows how CBS edited it out.
	It's not that important, but all they have is him saying, Go nuclear!
	Right.
	Whereas the question was about the nuclear option.
	It's a little disingenuous.
	Yeah, they're not going to put that in.
	Go nuclear.
	Now, under the so-called nuclear option, Republicans would change Senate rules to do away with filibusters for Supreme Court nominees.
	Scott, that would mean they could confirm Judge Gorsuch with a simple majority vote.
	Jen Crawford for us tonight.
	Jen, thanks.
	Now, what's interesting about that clip is the night before, that was, I think, Wednesday.
	On Tuesday, they did the same story.
	By the way, as you watch these networking news, they do the same story two, sometimes three times.
	Same story.
	They don't even mention it as, you know, they don't even refer back.
	But the day before, they added the little factoid, which they dropped from the Wednesday story.
	Oh.
	And the factoid is that the nuclear option was instituted in 2013 by the Obama administration.
	Well, that would be no good.
	But it was targeted.
	The Obama administration was having trouble getting some people confirmed, and we're talking about people in the inner circle in the White House, like a department secretary or something like that.
	So they pushed that through.
	They didn't push it through for Supreme Court justices, but they pushed it through, and it was pushed through in 2013, and they...
	They knew at the time that this could cause problems down the road.
	And this is why also when you have somebody like Jeff Sessions, who's getting no support from the Democrats, he's just getting through.
	They could filibuster that before 2013.
	But after 2013, they can't because the Democrats pushed the nuclear option.
	So now the Republicans are going to do it even further, which means this whole 60-vote thing is going to go by the wayside.
	But we'll have true democracy, majority rules.
	Isn't that what everybody wants?
	This is what democracy looks like.
	The reason you wanted the 60s because 60 with the there's ways you can cause if you don't have 60 you can Call for a cloture or something.
	Because what you don't want is a guy going up there and getting a hold of the floor, depending on the rules of the day, and just jacking away and filibustering for days on end, as far as until he passes out.
	And you just don't want that.
	Because it's just inconvenient, to say the least.
	So they're going to probably...
	Luckily, there's this pressure group that's putting pressure on what's called a...
	Excuse me.
	Red state Democrats.
	Democrats who are in office, but they're in a deep red state.
	They need to support this, otherwise they could be voted out.
	They're going to get voted out.
	That's politicking for you.
	So they'll get their little few extra votes, and that way they won't do it.
	But if they don't, and Schumer's all, we're not going to give them any votes.
	Schumer's being the big a-hole here, and he will maybe encourage this to happen.
	I'm not sure it will, but it might, and then...
	They just vote anybody they want in, and the Democrats can't do anything about it until they retake the Senate, which won't be for, you know, they can't be for at least two years.
	The interesting thing about this candidate, or appointee, I should say, for the Supreme Court is that President Obama, then Senator, Chuck Schumer, Dianne Feinstein, Wyden, and Biden, they all voted.
	He's already been confirmed once by Senate.
	Which, you know, makes that choice an interesting choice.
	Yeah, makes him look like a bunch of hypocrites.
	Yeah, he wasn't good.
	He was good then, but he's not good now.
	NPR? Bastion of left?
	Talk?
	On the, was it Tom Ashbrook, the On Point program?
	I had a guy on who knows a lot about Gorsuch's history, and his particular, as it pertains to immigration, and I want to share that report.
	And the question is, if somebody goes to court, should judges say, oh, well, we defer to the executive.
	The executive knows best, and we're going to stand back.
	Or does the judge say as...
	Judge Gorsuch said, the judge has an obligation to take an independent look at the law and decide whether this executive agency, this executive order, actually is in line with the law.
	So I actually think that's a view that many Democrats and liberals should be pleased with.
	He announced this, by the way, in a decision, he explained it, in a decision in August, a case involving an immigrant.
	And there had been two rules under immigration law.
	One was that if you came across the border and were caught, you couldn't come back for ten years and apply for any lawful status.
	This fellow had a family in Oklahoma.
	There was another view, part of the law, that said The Attorney General can always grant discretion to somebody who has ties to the United States.
	The law was, at that time in the Tenth Circuit, that the immigrant could make this plea for leniency.
	But the immigration agency came along and changed the rule and said, this guy, you're out, you have to stay out for ten years.
	Neil Gorsuch, in the Tenth Circuit, overruled the immigration authorities, ruled for the immigrant, and said, And part of his opinion, this violates due process of law to change the law on this person, this immigrant, when he's in the process of he thought the law was on his side.
	The government can't do that.
	And he also says, he said, if this was the law, the government, in the face of shifting political winds, could change the law against disfavored minorities.
	Now, in my opinion, that's exactly, if you were a lawyer, that's exactly the thing you would want to...
	Last weekend, you would want that on your side, saying the government can't change the rules suddenly and hurt all these people.
	It's a violation of due process of law.
	So, in my opinion, that's actually a good opinion for liberals and Democrats going forward.
	Doesn't sound too bad.
	Sounds like the guy might have some fairness in him.
	I think he's probably a decent choice.
	I mean, I didn't think the other guy was bad until you told me he was.
	Gardner, or whatever his name was.
	Yeah, let's call him Gardner.
	Yeah, that guy.
	So they're just bitching.
	In fact, I think this clip here, I think it says Senate Convention.
	I think this clip kind of summarizes things.
	This is a clip that includes miscellaneous...
	No, no, no, no.
	Oh, man.
	I see.
	I got a clip from EU Parliament.
	No, no, this is a local one.
	I want to get to that as soon as I can.
	Yeah, I got some of that too.
	Well, while you're looking for that...
	Here it is.
	No, I don't have it.
	Alright, while you look for it, of course, what happened immediately the minute this was announced, protests everywhere.
	Protests, protests, protests.
	Are they organized?
	You bet your life they are.
	And they're so poorly organized, this is again from NPR, on the media, Senator Ben Sass, Sass, Sass, There are indications, Nina Totenberg, our colleague, is reporting this, that based on his record, he has a different view of federal regulations.
	He may want to strip a lot of federal authority to make regulations which previous conservative justices had approved.
	I know you don't want this to be about issues, but about the law, but how would America be a different country in a few years if this man's judicial philosophy prevails?
	Well, I don't know the answer to that, and I don't think we should want to know, because I think what you're saying is what will be the policy implications, and a justice's job is to wait and look at the cases that come before them, for instance, when circuits are split.
	So let's back up to what Chris said for a minute.
	First of all, I should say, I have a ton of respect for Chris Coons.
	I like the guy a lot.
	I think he has a ton of integrity.
	I think the words radical departure are fairly stunning when he just said that he hasn't really read many of the opinions that he's just started looking at them.
	It feels a little bit like Senator Schumer yesterday.
	Before we knew who it was going to be, already was preparing talking points to say the guy kicks puppies and probably heckles piano recitals.
	And I went out last night.
	I was on the Hill last night, and I went out to the Supreme Court because I knew there were a bunch of protests happening.
	And I wanted to talk to the people.
	I wanted to hear from them.
	Why are you protesting?
	Why are you protesting?
	And I don't mean to be dismissive, but when you get to the steps of the court, and all the people there, not all of them, but the vast majority who are protesting, this is a terrible nominee, they had signs that said on one side, oppose at the top half, and on the other side, hashtag stop at the top half.
	And the bottom half was blank, and then they had magic markers, and they were filling in Gorsuch's name as they began to protest.
	And so I said, tell me, what's wrong with this guy?
	And they said, well, his opinions are atrocious.
	And I said, well, have you read any of them?
	And one of the guys looked at me sort of stone-eyed.
	Well, who are you to ask me that question?
	I said, well, I'm actually...
	Senator, Senator, I love this story.
	Gotta stop you there.
	Senator Ben Sass in Nebraska.
	Thanks very much.
	We'll continue the conversation.
	Thanks, Steve.
	I love how that had to be interrupted.
	I'm sorry.
	Great story.
	We gotta stop the great story about the fake protests.
	It's on the media.
	We've found them to be very slanted.
	With the fake protests.
	Unfortunately.
	Fake.
	Or fortunately.
	Hmm.
	I think it's fortunate.
	The best comment about the Supreme Court came to us on C-SPAN. The call-in show.
	The Washington Report.
	Producers of the No Agenda show.
	This is like shooting fish in a barrel.
	There's so much you can do.
	So much promotion.
	So much fun stuff you can do.
	Now you will get cut off as this woman who calls in.
	And she reminded us of something.
	And I had to go and look it up to see if there was any validity to her accusation.
	Asheville, North Carolina.
	Republican line.
	How are you?
	Good morning, sir.
	Good morning.
	You're a gentleman from Bloomberg in the comment about Judge Scalia, and he said something very strange.
	He said it was strange and unexpected, the death of Scalia in an election year.
	It could have been any other person from the Scottish group of nine of them.
	My problem is that when they downloaded the WikiLeaks emails, I read all of them.
	And there is one particular one from Podesta to a source telling him, it is time to assassinate Scalia.
	No autopsy was done on Scalia.
	He had sleep apnea.
	He had to go to a hunting trip.
	He should have taken the machine with oxygen if necessary because my husband has the same condition.
	If he fell asleep without the mask, all they had to do was, with the mask on, all they had to do was come into his room Press the green button, and in less than an hour, he would have died of natural consequences, and that is a subject that has never been spoken, identified, or investigated.
	Dennis is next.
	And Cutteroff.
	And Cutteroff.
	So I went back and looked, and this refers to the wet work at the vineyard email.
	The exact quote from Podesta is, didn't think wet works meant pool parties at the vineyard.
	And the theory of this, now wet works of course, I mean wet works has pretty much only one meaning for that as far as I know, and that is an assassination term.
	And it says meant pool parties at the vineyard.
	The ranch where Scalia died has quite a vineyard.
	In fact, it is a vineyard.
	It's a ranch vineyard, Cibolo Creek Ranch.
	So I just thought that was interesting.
	I hadn't connected...
	When I hear vineyard, I think Martha's Vineyard.
	I hadn't connected that to the ranch.
	Well...
	She's talking about a CPAP machine.
	Yeah.
	Just press the green button, you die.
	Well, you press the green button, it stops it, I guess.
	And then you die.
	Yeah.
	Well, if you had a real problem, I guess, it could happen.
	You're not supposed to.
	It's less messy.
	That's a death button.
	It's less messy.
	Avoid CPAPs and small aviation.
	Here's Thomas Friedman.
	This is a little clip.
	He was on AC360 and he was going on about stuff.
	And I just thought, this is just a very small piece of what he said, but I just thought it was interesting how he just kind of, yeah, yeah, yeah, you'll see.
	Making people afraid of Muslims, making people afraid of Mexicans, making people afraid of trade and globalization, and then presenting Donald Trump as the man who will protect you from all of that.
	And frankly, it worked.
	That's not to say there aren't real issues around this.
	You know, Islam has issues with pluralism, okay?
	Trade has cost some jobs.
	What do you say about Islam?
	It's against pluralism.
	Oh, pluralism.
	Multiculti and all this crap that we're all for.
	Multiculturalism and all the pluralism.
	You know, having anything other than Islam.
	If you're Islamic, you think that everything should be Islamic and everyone should get in line.
	But that was the least of it to me.
	It was, yeah, free trade has cost a few jobs.
	In the last show, we talked about over 600,000 jobs.
	Which I guess is a feud.
	Freeman doesn't care.
	He's got his little cushy job in the New York Times.
	But I just thought this was just cavalier.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Free trades cost a few jobs.
	It cost a lot of jobs.
	The whole country's got no manufacturing left.
	We have plenty of manufacturing, but that's not what we're used to.
	I've been triggered and I'm outraged.
	I cannot believe that my social justice warrior friends did not celebrate an incredibly important day worldwide, was not mentioned here in the United States of Gitmo Nation.
	It was a big deal and I'm sad that it was skipped and I think there should be hearings about it.
	Muslim women in Bosnia have been encouraging women of all faiths to don a head scarf.
	It's all in aid of World Hijab Day, which aims to show solidarity and promote tolerance.
	Many Bosnian women in Sarajevo were protesting against the ban on hijabs in certain countries.
	I'm not intimidated by the ban.
	We've known for some time that there's an ongoing war against Islam.
	Automatically there's a war against women wearing the hijab because the hijab is part of Islam.
	Unfortunately throughout history there were times when Muslim women wearing the hijab had problems.
	Right now we're under scrutiny so we must remain positive.
	While some European countries have banned hijabs in public places, certain countries, including Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Sudan, require women to wear headscarves outside of their homes.
	I can't believe that was not celebrated.
	But a perfect opportunity, too.
	I think it was suppressed.
	Well, Tina and I celebrated World Hijab Day.
	I'll bet you did.
	Yeah.
	She asked my permission to go to the grocery store.
	To drive.
	Only she doesn't go with any alien men.
	Did you have permission to drive?
	Give her permission to drive.
	Woo!
	I know.
	World Hijab Day.
	Gotta do it once in a while.
	So there's a lot of action in the EU, and I got a kick out of some of these things I picked up from the Parliament.
	Yes, I too watched some of that.
	Did you get the Boris Johnson back and forth with his own people and everybody else about the passports, UK passports, that was settled?
	Well, I actually have a small clip of Chloe Smith coming into Parliament.
	I say to the Honourable Lady, don't be sheepish about it.
	The little baby is welcome to come in.
	There's no problem.
	Chloe Smith brought her baby.
	This was so important.
	And they made a big deal of this in the UK. Oh, wow.
	I brought a baby into Parliament.
	So here's Boris Johnson.
	I put this clip, I actually saved it for some moment when somebody doesn't know what they're talking about, because apparently people in Parliament don't know what they're talking about, and Boris had to straighten them out.
	He's the foreign minister who talked to the United States about what the deal was with this executive order about it.
	Banning certain people from certain countries.
	And you could tell that the people in Parliament themselves didn't know what the heck was going on.
	And I thought this straightened everything out, at least from the UK perspective.
	This is, of course, a highly controversial policy, which has caused unease.
	And I repeat that this is not an approach that this government would take.
	I spoke yesterday to the US administration and my right honourable friend the Home Secretary has today spoken to General Kelly, the Secretary of Homeland Security.
	The general principle is that all British passport holders remain welcome to travel to the US. We have received assurances from the US Embassy that this executive order will make no difference to any British passport holder irrespective of their country of birth or whether they hold another passport.
	But let me conclude by reminding the House of the vital importance of this country's alliance with the United States Thank you.
	I'm grateful to my own for that ingenious question.
	Wait, what happened there?
	I didn't quite understand what happened there.
	Okay, so one of these jokers, who's also a conservative, which I found to be weird, cropped up as a joke and said, was it you talking to Homeland Security or Jared Kushner, the president's son-in-law, and so...
	So you went back and made a little light of it.
	And by the way, he is the home secretary, but he does this.
	This is his job.
	We'll finish it up.
	I'm grateful to my honour for that ingenious question, but I'm sure that the House will appreciate that we have very good relations at all levels now with the US government.
	My right honourable friend, the Home Secretary, herself has had an excellent conversation today with General Kelly of the Homeland Security Department, confirming the very important exemptions that we've achieved for UK nationals and for dual nationals.
	Mr.
	Speaker, I'm sure that the three members of this house who were born in Yemen are grateful to the Foreign Minister for allowing us to travel to America.
	But the position of a British citizen who happens to be an aid worker in Yemen or has visited Yemen for humanitarian purposes, they are caught by this ban.
	Because the United States will not allow, as I understand it, he may have other information, those who visited or worked in Yemen, even though they're nationals of Britain, to visit the United States.
	I'm very grateful to my right honourable member for when I know that he was born in Yemen and I know that there must initially have been in his mind some anxiety about exactly how he would be treated when he would go to the US. I'm happy to say that he will face no obstacle whatever because he is a UK passport holder and nor will any UK aid worker in Yemen because that is what we have achieved.
	Oh, well, that would be logical if people understood that.
	The whole thing is...
	And by the way, I'm sorry.
	Boris Johnson is the foreign secretary.
	He was referring to the home secretary who was sitting next to us.
	You're kind of moving into the travel ban, which I'd like to do, and then I'd like to finish it up before the break.
	Do you have more?
	I only have one more thing from these folks, and it's just an analysis of...
	I finally kind of got the pattern down for how...
	Theresa May deals with Jeremy Corbyn.
	But at the beginning of the Prime Minister's question time...
	He's the leader of the...
	He's the leader of the opposition, the Labor Party.
	Labor Party, yeah.
	And so he gets X number of questions.
	I think it's either six or eight in a row.
	And so she comes up and makes a statement.
	Then they call him Corbin.
	He gets up and says something nasty to her.
	She says something nasty to him.
	He says something nasty to her.
	And this goes on for a limited number of time.
	And then at the very end, he gets his last question and she gets her last digs in.
	Now, when Cameron was running the show...
	Cameron was funnier than she is.
	And he would have punchlines and one-liners all throughout the back and forth.
	She's tried this, but Corbin apparently has better comebacks, so she stopped doing it.
	She will make a snide remark once in a while, but she doesn't try to be funny like she did her first couple of times.
	What she does now is she saves the final punchline.
	For her final word, so that's her last word and no one can retort.
	He can't get up again because he's done.
	So then they go to the general house and then they start asking Brandon.
	You know this was pre-written and the whole thing is staged anyway.
	But I have to say, she does finish well with a good killer ending to this back and forth.
	And he, of course, the Labour Party is all in on staying in the EU and screw Trump.
	I hope, Mr.
	Speaker...
	I hope, Mr.
	Speaker, that includes not having U.S. healthcare companies coming in to run any part of our national health service.
	Mr.
	Speaker!
	What, make it better?
	President Trump has torn up international agreements on refugees.
	He's threatened to dump international agreements on climate change.
	He's praised the use of torture.
	He's incited hatred against Muslims.
	He's directly attacked women's rights.
	Just what more does President Trump have to do before the Prime Minister will listen to the 1.8 million people who've already called for his state visit invitation to be withdrawn?
	The Right Honourable Gentleman's foreign policy is to object to and insult the democratically elected head of state of our most important ally.
	Let's just see what he would have achieved in the last week.
	Would he have been able to protect British citizens from the impact of the executive order?
	No.
	Would he have been able to lay the foundations of a trade deal?
	No.
	Would he have got a 100% commitment to NATO?
	No.
	That's what Labour has to offer this country.
	Less protection for British citizens, less prosperous, less safe.
	He can lead a protest.
	I'm leading a country.
	You know, when I heard that, the first thing I thought is, it doesn't really lend itself for a full-on treatment, but the first thing I thought was this.
	He can lead a protest.
	I'm leading a country.
	Ha ha ha!
	So she's getting the hang of this, and this is her new style, and she's doing it very well.
	Yes.
	And this guy's going to have to change his approach.
	Well, I have a number of clips.
	First, I have a CBS, it's a short package, about the general anti-Trump sentiment in the European Union and in the UK. Not just the crowds that have poured onto the streets of Europe are angry with Donald Trump.
	That's pretty pathetic, by the way.
	The disenchantment has now reached the highest levels of European politics.
	Along with the menace of Vladimir Putin's aggressive Russia, and China's military buildup in the South China Sea, and militant Islam, Donald Trump's United States has become a threat to Europe, according to Donald Tusk, the president of the European Union's most powerful body.
	We cannot surrender to those who want to weaken or invalidate the transatlantic bond, without which global order and peace cannot survive.
	What frightens the EU is President Trump's support for the British to leave, expressed to Prime Minister Theresa May, and for other countries to follow.
	That and his perceived lack of commitment to NATO, and now the refugee ban.
	Alright, the refugee ban is what they're calling it, which is also not what it is.
	It's a lie.
	Yeah, it's a lie.
	Mogherini is the new head of foreign affairs for Starfleet Command there in Europe.
	She replaces the no-neck monster.
	Remember her?
	That's her name again.
	Yeah.
	Ashton.
	So Mogherini underlines EU's opposition to the Trump travel ban.
	The EU's foreign policy chief has underlined opposition to Donald Trump's controversial travel bans, saying no one should be deprived of their fundamental rights.
	The US Department of State has clarified yesterday that the citizens of the European Union will not be affected by the ban, even if they hold dual citizenship in one of the seven countries listed in the executive order.
	We welcome this clarification, but let me be absolutely clear, this does not change our overall assessment about the executive order.
	One top EU official said Trump is part of a multi-pronged attempt to undermine the bloc.
	We have the autocrat Putin who want to divide Europe.
	We have President Trump who have a populist nationalist view and want to disintegrate us.
	We have the threat of the radical Islamists in the South and we have a bunch of people here who want to destroy inside the European Union.
	He's pointing it to Nigel Farage when he says that.
	We can do one thing, that is unite us, fight back as the European Union.
	Nigel Farage was heckled in Brussels as he defended Trump over halting refugee admissions and temporarily barring people from seven Muslim majority countries.
	With all the anti-Trump rhetoric that is coming from everywhere, actually what we're hearing is the true nature of the European project, which is genuine anti-Americanism.
	And amid the claims of discrimination, the EU itself is currently working to curb the flow of migrants and refugees to its soil, with some members already having put up fences.
	What is so beautiful about what we're seeing right now is, and of course this is brought up continuously, it is no longer useful as an argument when you say, yeah but, Obama said, yeah but, it's no longer useful.
	Because people just don't hear it anymore.
	So I thought it would be good to go back in time.
	I would like to take us back...
	Hmm...
	Let me see if I can set the machine here.
	I think we should set it for 1995.
	Hop in, John.
	Hop in.
	Hey, John!
	How you doing?
	Welcome to 1995!
	You know, it looks a lot like 1996 to me.
	Well, yes!
	You're right, a little bit.
	In 1995, we had a State of the Union...
	From President Bill Clinton.
	Well, that's funny.
	Why?
	Because I thought it was 1996.
	It's 1996, but hold on a second.
	We're in the wrong year.
	Hold on.
	Just a brief hop.
	We're in 1996, John.
	How you feel now?
	Oh, man, it's a lot better.
	I got to change my shoe style.
	You know those...
	Yeah, I feel good.
	I want you to listen to the xenophobic, anti-immigration, anti-everything, horrible douchebag of a president, and his immigration plans are triggering me!
	All Americans...
	Not only in the states most heavily affected, but in every place in this country are rightly disturbed by the large numbers of illegal aliens entering our country.
	The jobs they hold might otherwise be held by citizens or legal immigrants.
	The public service they use impose burdens on our taxpayers.
	That's why our administration has moved aggressively to secure our borders more by hiring a record number of new border guards, by deporting twice as many criminal aliens as ever before, by cracking down on illegal hiring, by barring welfare benefits to illegal aliens.
	In the budget I will present to you, we will try to do more to speed the deportation of illegal aliens who are arrested for crimes, to better identify illegal aliens in the workplace as recommended by the Commission headed by former Congresswoman Barbara Jordan.
	We are a nation of immigrants.
	But we are also a nation of laws.
	It is wrong and ultimately self-defeating for a nation of immigrants to permit the kind of abuse of our immigration laws we have seen in recent years, and we must do more to stop it.
	Oh, I'm so surprised he used the term illegal aliens.
	It's triggering me.
	They're not aliens.
	Just imagine.
	I'm sure there's going to be a lot of protests over this racism.
	There's not.
	They're not aliens.
	They're people.
	Don't say that.
	And it's curious that Barbara Jordan had something to do with this because she's a black woman.
	From Texas.
	And you think she'd be more sympathetic.
	A black woman from Texas, no less.
	Oh, my.
	I think we better get back to our own time.
	Strap in.
	What?
	Moving forward always makes me a little nauseous.
	Now before you get to the, I don't know if you have, because I know you're on a roll here, but before we get off the EU's moaning and groaning, do you have Ted Mollock's clip?
	Uh, wait, I have something about Moloch, not his...
	Well, here's...
	I got him actually talking.
	This is the RT report.
	This is Donald Tusk again, bitching and moaning about us.
	But it turns out to be...
	A lot of this stuff, in fact, what you just played before Clinton, is based on this guy.
	And I like it, love the name Moloch.
	The ambassador...
	I'm sorry, the ambassador to the...
	To the EU, from the US, a Trump employee.
	Is he ambassador to the UN? No, no.
	Oh, he's ambassador to the EU. Oh, I'm sorry.
	Okay, got it.
	The ambassador to the UN is that woman.
	Oh, yeah.
	Yeah, that's...
	Yeah, okay.
	Yes.
	Yes, sorry.
	Moloch, okay.
	Donald Tusk report based on this little ditty.
	The EU faces a new threat, and that's apparently Donald Trump's America.
	And the warning comes from the European Council's president, Mr.
	Donald Tusk.
	Boring declarations by the new American administration all make our future highly unpredictable.
	So many are becoming openly anti-European or Eurosceptic at best.
	Particularly the change in Washington puts the European Union in a difficult situation.
	The European Union and the United States have been the best of friends for so long.
	Step onto the stage, Donald Trump is the president, and we're hearing these words from another Donald, Donald Tusk, the European Council president, not pulling any punches with what he has to say.
	And it looks from the European side as if they feel that the biggest threats they're facing are Russia and China in the east, Islamic State and Islamic extremist terrorism in the south, and then the United States in the west pretty much surrounded, as long as they don't annoy any polar and then the United States in the west pretty much surrounded, But how did we get to this situation where we've gone from seemingly one end to the other?
	Well, a lot of it can be seen from just the reaction to a statement on a British TV show by Donald Trump's preferred candidate to be the ambassador to the European Union.
	I had in a previous career a diplomatic post where I helped to bring down the Soviet Union.
	So maybe there's another union that needs a little taming.
	We need a...
	We need a...
	A picket thing.
	We need a...
	We're not in a picket.
	Who shouts for us?
	Putin!
	Putin!
	Yeah, that's...
	No, that's neither.
	He does the...
	We'll think about it.
	We need one.
	Monarch!
	It's going to be great.
	But he says...
	Fletcher, Fletcher, Fletcher.
	This is what caused his row.
	It's Fletcher.
	Fletcher, yeah, Fletcher.
	He said it offhandedly.
	Well, I was...
	I guess I was an ambassador or something to Russia.
	The Soviet Union.
	And he brought it down.
	He says, I brought it down.
	I think this other thing might go.
	I just thought that was hilarious.
	Oh, yeah.
	I thought they were discussing Moloch, actually, when I cut into this next clip, again from Chris Matthews, because he was pretty funny.
	He was all he was all triggered by speaking with Howard Feynman of WAPO.
	John, WAPO.
	Yeah, WAPO.
	WAPO, WAPO, WAPO, WAPO, WAPO, WAPO, WAPO, WAPO.
	All three of you on Great Reporters to tell me what this means in history right now.
	The fact that seven countries have been targeted by the new president.
	You can't come here for three months.
	Well, Chris, it means that Osama bin Laden's whole theory of the war of the West on Islam now gains great credence.
	Thanks to what Donald Trump.
	We're all crusaders now.
	We are the crusaders officially in the eyes of Islam.
	At least that's what Osama said.
	That's what Donald Trump has done.
	This is the reaction that Osama bin Laden himself would have prayed for.
	And he died for.
	This is what he wanted to happen.
	This is what he prayed for and died for.
	This is 9-11, 15 years later.
	Now, I'm not going to just...
	That's just pathetic.
	First of all, keeping somebody from coming in is not the same as going on a crusade.
	I'd say that this kind of attacking Libya is a crusade.
	That was a Hillary thing.
	I think trying to get involved with the Syrian thing, that's kind of a crusade.
	I think starting a war in Iraq, that's kind of a crusade.
	But blocking entry...
	It's anything but.
	I was blocked entry to the European Union.
	It's a crusade.
	I had a valid passport.
	It's a crusade.
	Yeah, you couldn't even get in.
	Why don't you tell that story once again?
	European Union, Brussels particularly, passed a law in 2013 for the Schengen area, which excludes the United Kingdom specifically, that your passport must be valid for six months After you are scheduled to leave the zone, and mine was valid for three months and two days, and I was refused even to board the plane because they decided to enforce this just overnight.
	They said, oh, we're enforcing this now.
	I didn't know.
	It doesn't matter.
	So they got their own ban.
	You got gypped, is what I see.
	Yeah, I got totally gypped.
	And Airbnb gypped me, too, because I canceled, and they gave me like 80%.
	They kept 20% of your money.
	Douchebags.
	Douchebags.
	And the guy whose apartment, he was a Dutch guy, I'm like, hey, man, I'll come and stay at your place again.
	Send me some money back.
	No.
	Bullcrap.
	Okay.
	Our brand new Secretary General of the United Nations, Antonio Guterres.
	Guterres.
	Not as funny as Ban Ki-moon, sadly.
	But he did weigh in on our US travel ban.
	In my opinion, this is not the way, and it was very clear in the statement, this is not the way to best protect the US or any other country in relation to the serious concerns that exist about possibilities of terrorist infiltration, but I don't think this is the effective way to do so.
	And I think that these measures should be removed sooner rather than later.
	That was the appeal I made.
	I think that those measures indeed violate our Basic principles, and I think that they are not effective if the objective is to really avoid terrorists to enter the United States.
	So I guess they're trying to ramp up there, oh, terrorism's important, because that was one of the main problems that we have.
	Well, here is a clip with Mike Morrell, followed by another CIA guy, followed by Chuck Schumer.
	This is Mike Morrell, leads charge to condemn Trump.
	I think the order is going to make the threat worse.
	It is going to make us less safe.
	So it doesn't make the threat any less, while at the same time it's playing right into the ISIS narrative.
	This makes us less safe.
	There's no question in my mind that anyone involved in law enforcement, anyone involved in international security considers this an order that makes us less safe.
	This will make us less safe.
	John McCain is exactly right.
	It will encourage lone wolves here in America.
	They have created most of the terrorism.
	The biggest problems we've had with terrorism are not from these countries.
	We're all going to die!
	I finally saw the movie that's from.
	I didn't realize it.
	Okay, a couple more clips before we get into our break.
	Let's hear from an actual lawyer.
	He's not necessarily a constitutional lawyer, but Alan Dershowitz is a lawyer.
	He's a divorce lawyer, isn't he?
	Isn't this the main thing?
	No, I thought he was a civil rights attorney.
	I thought he was a divorce lawyer.
	Well, who knows?
	He's a professor is what he is.
	Ah, well, he's on with Aaron Burnett, and here's his opinion.
	He doesn't think it's constitutional that judge after judge is ruling in that direction were the words that he used.
	Of course, the different rulings have been regarding detentions and green card holders and various other issues.
	Do you agree that it is...
	Not lawful?
	Or do you think that given the wide parameters the President of the United States has to set these sorts of things, that he is within his legal rights?
	Well, I think some of it's constitutional, some of it's not constitutional.
	For example, there is a statute that limits the president's power and says that visas may not be denied on the basis of religion.
	Is that statute constitutional?
	Or is it a claim on presidential authority?
	These are very complicated legal issues, and people shouldn't jump into them.
	You know, we have a hobby in this country.
	If you don't like something, you assume it's unconstitutional.
	Even my colleague Elizabeth Warren pointed to a part of the Constitution that says no religious test shall ever be required.
	But she didn't read the second part of it.
	For holding of office under the United States government has nothing to do with visas.
	On the other hand, the First Amendment says Congress shall make no law.
	So it's a prohibition on congressional action and presidential action.
	I could teach a whole seminar on this subject.
	It's very complicated, very nuanced, and we shouldn't get political about it when we're talking about the Constitution.
	I love it.
	That's true, though.
	That's such a thing in America.
	It's unconstitutional, man.
	Unconstitutional.
	Unconstitutional, dude.
	I did want to just highlight a couple passages from the entry ban executive order, is what I'm calling it, that are not discussed anywhere, just some things I've highlighted, such as the following paragraph.
	In order to protect Americans, the United States must ensure that those admitted to this country do not bear hostile attitudes towards it and its founding principles.
	The United States cannot and should not admit those who do not support the Constitution or those who would place violent ideologies over American law.
	In addition, the United States should not admit those who engage in acts of bigotry or hatred, including honor killings, other forms of violence against women or the persecution of those who practice religions different from their own, or those who would oppress Americans of any race, gender, or sexual orientation.
	Nice to see that there's some thinking about sexual orientation in there.
	This will end in three months.
	I mean, there's reports that are due within 60 days here.
	After the 60-day period described in subsection D of this section expires, the Secretary of Homeland Security, in consultation with the Secretary of State, shall submit to the President a list of countries recommended for inclusion on a presidential proclamation that would prohibit the entry of foreign nationals.
	However, there's a lot of stipulations.
	Foreign nationals traveling on diplomatic visas, NATO visas, C2 visas, G1, G2, G3, G4, all will have no problem.
	and Here we go.
	Realignment of the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program for fiscal year 2017.
	This is the refugee portion.
	The Secretary of State shall suspend the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program, USRAP, for 120 days.
	During the 100-day period, I thought it was 90.
	I'm not talking about 90, but that's not the refugees.
	The refugees is 120.
	During the 120-day period, the Secretary of State shall, in conjunction with the Secretary of Homeland Security, review the USRAP application and adjudication process to ensure that those approved for refugee admission do not pose a threat to the security and welfare of the United States and shall implement such additional procedures.
	Refugee applicants who are already in the USRAP process may be admitted upon the initiation and completion of these revised procedures.
	And then very specifically, upon the resumption of USRAP admissions, so it will resume under the resumption, the Secretary of State, and then it goes on with what the Secretary of State has to do.
	So they do plan to start it up again.
	And then, I guess this is the legalese pursuit.
	This is why the President thinks he can do this.
	Pursuant to Section 212F of the INA 8 U.S.C. 1182F, I hereby proclaim that the entry of more than 50,000 refugees in fiscal year 2017 would be detrimental to the interests of the United States and thus suspend any such entry until such time I determine that additional admissions would be in the national interest.
	So there's a cap.
	I haven't heard anyone talk about the cap, actually.
	About the 50,000.
	And here's what...
	That's the cap that Hillary wanted to raise to $500,000.
	Yes, correct, correct.
	Here's what I've always been saying.
	It's the only problem, and it's just been held up with bogus companies doing crappy work.
	Section 7.
	Expedited completion of the biometric entry-exit tracking system.
	As the Secretary of Homeland Security shall expedite the completion and implementation of a biometric entry and exit tracking system for all travelers to the United States as recommended by the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks upon the United States.
	That's the thing we've needed.
	It's to know when people leave or, obviously, if they don't leave.
	It's that simple.
	And then regarding the visa interview, the Secretary of State shall immediately suspend the visa interview waiver program and ensure compliance with Section 222, blah, blah, blah, which requires that all individuals seeking a non-immigrant visa undergo an in-person interview subject to specific statutory exceptions.
	So it looks like the visa waiver program may go away, and you will have to get a visa in person.
	Poland, still no change for you.
	We really don't care about you.
	Okay, now back to the media.
	Jake Tapper had on, the guy that we've played a couple times on the show, who now apparently is assistant deputy to the president, Sebastian Gorka.
	We like what this guy had to say.
	And he kind of, well, I think he butt-slammed Jake Tapper.
	And I'm sure you've seen the reports of people who were negatively affected by the executive order on Friday.
	I'm sure that there are some, we talked to one yesterday, an Iraqi who's now in this country who said exactly what you said.
	But there are also a lot of people who say, you know, I've gone through two years of vetting and then all of a sudden I can't come, or I'm a refugee, what am I going to do?
	Some people who have sold all their belongings.
	Certainly there's another side to this.
	Look, I am an immigrant, Jake.
	I chose this nation.
	I'm a proud American.
	My parents were refugees.
	From Hungary.
	Yeah, who escaped a dictatorship.
	What happened to them?
	My parents were vetted for weeks in a refugee camp.
	Not for 60 seconds by some INS agent or a member of the State Department online.
	For weeks to determine that they truly were persecuted and escaping that dictatorship and didn't pose a threat to the UK. That's Extreme vetting.
	That's taking national security seriously.
	This is simply about protecting Americans.
	Nothing to do with religion and nothing to do with xenophobia.
	It's about national security.
	The refugee program, the vetting is 18 months to two years.
	The length of it, maybe.
	That's paperwork.
	That's process.
	I'm talking about serious...
	Serious counterintelligence questioning, making sure somebody's story is accurate.
	The absurdity under the Obama administration that you're not allowed to check somebody's public Facebook postings because that's against their privacy.
	Hang on.
	American citizens don't have their Facebook posts protected from anybody else reading.
	The system is broken, Jake.
	It's broken.
	It has to be fixed.
	We don't want to see a Berlin here.
	We don't want to see people mowed down as they were in Nice, happening again in Yeah, gee, I didn't know that.
	Yeah, Ellis Island was also, months people were on Ellis Island.
	We had the same thing over here on Angel Island on the West Coast.
	Now, I'm wrapping it up here.
	I have one thing to add to your whole thing when you're done.
	Why do you want to do it now?
	Okay, let's play it.
	This is just a little side thing because he's cropped up.
	I think he's going to run for Senate or something because he's a politician.
	But I thought Kucinich had a pretty good straight-up kind of analysis of most of this.
	Hmm.
	Okay.
	Let's see what he had to say.
	On Fox News, Dennis Kucinich, very liberal guy, said this.
	Let's face something here.
	Donald Trump didn't create these wars.
	Wars create refugees.
	And President Obama, both in Syria and in Lebanon, has backed conflicts which have created refugees.
	So that's something that if he's involved in the debate, he should have to answer that.
	Mr.
	Kucinich joins us now from Cleveland.
	So we both agree that President Obama is partially responsible for the refugee chaos, but you're coming at it from a different point of view than I am.
	So just explain your point of view for us.
	Well, I'm opposed to U.S. interventionism.
	It costs our nation dearly, $6 trillion since 9-11.
	We have a right to defend ourselves, but look, Iraq, that was President Bush's watch, created an enormous amount of refugees.
	Libya and Syria created a lot of refugees.
	That was President Obama's watch.
	If you don't have wars, you don't create refugees.
	So, you know, there has to be some responsibility.
	It has to be taken by the president.
	Boy, I'm glad he didn't become president, that horrible Republican.
	He's not on our side anymore.
	He's no good.
	I thought the Academy Award, without a doubt, has to go to Chuck Schumer.
	Senator from New York.
	Oh, that crying thing?
	You know, it was more than that.
	If you looked at the whole sequence, he brought out a Muslim family.
	This was great.
	So the Muslim family has the husband, I presume, and he's dressed kind of jeans, denim jacket, you know, but like a kind of like construction site type garb with a baseball hat and his sunglasses on top of his baseball hat.
	Then the wife, mother, Wearing a hijab.
	But they had two kids.
	And they had red hair.
	Like orange-red hair.
	And it was very confusing to me.
	So I don't know if they were her kids.
	I guess it was to show, hey, Muslims come in red hair variety.
	I'm not sure what it was.
	And for those of you who didn't see it, Chuck Schumer started to cry while he was...
	I mean, he was so...
	And I gotta say, it seemed pretty...
	It was good.
	He looked really emotional and whatever he did to...
	And Chuck Schumer is a hard-ass man.
	That's something you don't expect from him.
	Oh, yes.
	I just wanted to...
	This is also scriptural, and we have this...
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	Before I get to the crying part, he did something that I saw the professor on Facebag do.
	I think I mentioned it to you.
	The professor is now quoting scripture, the obat...
	What are the atheists quoting scripture for?
	Well, here's Schumer doing the exact...
	This is a meme, obviously, because I first saw the professor do it.
	I think the idea is, maybe I can appeal to the assholes this way, because, you know, all Republicans are...
	You know, they clutch their guns in their Bible.
	Maybe if I show them the Bible tells them wrong, maybe they'll change their ways.
	Yeah, that's it.
	You got it.
	It's really, really...
	Oh yes, I just wanted to, this is all so scriptural and we have the support of so many of the religious leaders of every different faith throughout the country.
	Exodus 2220.
	It admonishes us not to wrong or oppress a stranger, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt.
	Matthew 25 in the New Testament.
	I was hungry and you gave me something to eat.
	I was a stranger and you invited me in.
	And I'm reminded of Pope Francis.
	Who asked us in terms crystal clear to...
	I think it's the Pope Francis, that's where he starts to crack up a little bit.
	I don't know, for some reason, Pope Francis, just listen, this is very interesting how he got himself so emotional about this.
	It's crystal clear to, quote, confront the reality of those who have been displaced by force with effective projects and new approaches in order to protect their dignity, improve their quality of life, this is the Pope speaking...
	Now, here's his crying bit, which is just fabulous how he does this.
	This executive order was mean-spirited in a way that created chaos and confusion across the country, And it will only serve to embolden and inspire those around the globe who will do us harm.
	Prats are going to introduce legislation to overturn this.
	Now, there you go.
	Chuck Schumer crying.
	Excellent.
	I wish I could take credit for it.
	This is Hassan Maynard.
	He sent me a version which was wrong.
	And here's so cool.
	I said, dude, you got to do three times the chorus.
	You got to have him start without the music.
	Then the big payoff at the end.
	And he did it.
	While his wife is sleeping in the bedroom.
	Yeah, it was fantastic.
	So I'm going to give him a little point.
	Point there.
	I like that one.
	Nice.
	With that, I would like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you, John C. Constitutional lawyer, Devorah.
	In the morning to you, Mr.
	Adam Curry.
	In the morning, all ships and sea boots on the ground, feet in the air, subs in the water, and all the dames...
	Welcome to episode 900 of the best podcast in the universe.
	Thank you all for being here, sharing your one-liners, helping, helping, helping.
	Very good.
	This is how we like to see it.
	And of course, thank you to our artists, always coming in with fun stuff.
	I'm sure we'll have a lot of things to look at today.
	I want to thank Martin JJ. He brought us the artwork for, let me see, it was episode 899-er.
	And the title of that show was The Loyalty Test.
	The artwork, in case you missed it, you can always go to archive.noagendashow.noagendanotes.com.
	Here it is.
	Oh, that was the warning, your universe may change.
	That was the street sign.
	It was nice.
	I also want to thank PewDiePie.
	He's the one who produced the Show 900 artwork for the newsletter.
	I don't always credit this.
	But if you saw it, it was a fractal.
	Yes, yes.
	Can't find your fractal.
	There it is.
	It's a fractal.
	Show 900, John.
	We've done 900 of these.
	Oh my God.
	And we never had a fight.
	It's amazing.
	We've had plenty of fights.
	So let's thank a few of these people who are thanking us for doing this show.
	Or, in fact, we heard your buddy Benjamin over there in Austin compliment the show for being well done.
	Dan Benjamin.
	I always thought that was quite good.
	Oh, nice.
	Yeah, I have a clip of it, but we can play it.
	Wait, who are you talking about?
	Who are you talking about?
	He was on a podcast.
	Who was?
	Benjamin.
	Benjamin who?
	Dan Benjamin.
	Oh, and he was talking about us?
	I didn't know about this.
	Oh, I thought everyone knew about him.
	Don't you want to play it?
	It's a good intro to the donations.
	Yes, let me see.
	I don't think I've heard this.
	I see the clip, though.
	And again, I think that's why more and more people are wanting to do things with...
	With listener-supported shows.
	And again, I'll point to Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak's No Agenda, which is a program that I truly enjoy.
	I'm a friend of Adam's.
	I've known him for a number of years.
	He's here in Austin.
	And they're able to both make a nice living and do their show twice a week.
	Speak for yourself.
	I do not think there is a show other than yours.
	That is more thoroughly researched and more thoroughly prepared for than a second to use than no agenda.
	Oh, I'm not even in the same category, Dan.
	Come on.
	Absolutely.
	You have encyclopedic knowledge of every single one of your guests.
	And I think it's astounding that they're doing all of that and they have supporters who are giving them money to do the things that they do.
	And it's pretty cool.
	I think that's the future that...
	The only thing I'll add to that, of course, is what's really cool is when you get people like Hasan Maynard to put together the mix.
	We have our end-of-show mixes.
	I'm getting more and more pre-done clips in the email, which is fantastic.
	We have artwork.
	There's so much that people do as a part of the new model for true participation radio.
	That's why you're producers and not listeners.
	Listeners are exploited for profit.
	Producers produce!
	The, uh, that's what I think is interesting is because, you know, they see their donation model and then they kind of, they stop there.
	They don't realize it's all inclusive.
	Exactly.
	In fact, it doesn't work without the other part because you, then you can, you can cut your money in half and, uh, and hire people to do things.
	So there's no way we could do all of this.
	No, I certainly couldn't.
	Um, so yeah, I probably could, but I am not going to.
	Why bother?
	Hey, let's thank some people here, John.
	We have a lot of people to thank for Show 900, and a lot of them donated the $900 for Show 900 and became members of the 900 Club.
	Nice.
	And we want to thank them.
	Starting with Sir James of the Form 990.
	I love this donation.
	It's Hickson, Indiana.
	$990.
	So he's actually up at the head of the class.
	We'll put him in the club anyway.
	It's Hickson, Tennessee, not Indiana.
	What'd I say?
	You said Indiana.
	That's your new monitor.
	Oh, I did.
	I'm sorry.
	Hickson, Tennessee.
	Now you have a huge new monitor and you still can't read the spreadsheet.
	Well, I just saw that.
	T-N-I-N looks the same to me.
	I've been loving the media deconstruction as of late.
	Your show keeps me grounded in this dimension.
	All the haters can go live in the other dimension where the kale is considered fine dining.
	So at the end, he's just south of Saudi Daisy, he says.
	And how about a mac and cheese?
	Too delicious to believe in some tax season karma for all the accountant listeners out there.
	Okay, and I will add something to his request, just because I think it's right.
	You slaves can get used to mac and cheese.
	Mac and cheese.
	Macaroni and cheddar melted together.
	Mac and cheese.
	It's almost too delicious to believe, my friend.
	You've got karma.
	Eat more kale.
	Thank you very much, and I look forward to...
	Eat more kale.
	Baron Henry of the Outpost West from Rancho Palos Verdes in California, 900.
	Thank you.
	Congrats on show 900.
	A life would not be the same without no agenda.
	Keep it up.
	Thank you.
	Baron Henry of the Outpost West.
	Thank you.
	Short and sweet.
	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	Jacob Barker in, I don't know, is it Cremorne, New South Wales, Australia?
	900.
	We love the Aussies.
	We have a little Aussie clip coming up.
	Yep.
	Later about the argument that went on supposedly.
	CNN made it to a big story.
	A 900 for 900.
	Please de-douche and I request a Jobs Karma for my new virtual reality startup.
	Ooh.
	Send goggles.
	You've been de-douched.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!
	Yay!
	You've got karma.
	Sir Duke Thomas Dustbaum in Virginia Beach, Virginia, 900.
	To all that haven't donated yet, douchebag.
	Douchebag.
	I'm humbly awaiting for the next 900.
	Wow.
	Somehow, I don't know.
	I'm not so sure.
	Nugs and kisses.
	Next time I come down to Fort Worth, I will have more time and do up dinner or something.
	I'm in no way even close to jumping ship, that's for sure.
	You should hope not.
	Duke Nussbaum.
	Yes.
	We should play the Nussbaum thing.
	Nussbaum!
	I am remiss.
	Indeed, I should have done a remiss.
	Yeah, we have some Nussbaums.
	Let's see.
	Ah, my favorite.
	This is my favorite.
	Nussbaum!
	Work for Nussbaum!
	There you go.
	Matthew Gebhardt in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
	Another $900 from him.
	Proud to be an executive producer.
	Please don't broadcast the following and then I'm not going to.
	But you can read that for yourself and we'll give him a karma.
	Yes, absolutely.
	And thank you for your support of the show, Matthew.
	You've got karma.
	And he will be a knight.
	He's ready, he says.
	He's ready for his knighthood ceremony coming up, my friend.
	That was the $900.
	It's great.
	We got Mark Workman.
	Oh, nice.
	I don't have a note from him.
	I'll check.
	Let's take a look.
	It's possible as one.
	His donation amount is a good one.
	7, 8, 9, 10.
	I like that.
	Yeah, I like that.
	I like that one a lot.
	I hadn't fired up my email yet, so let me just give me a second.
	Let me see.
	Workman?
	Okay.
	Workman.
	Workman.
	I think he sent a couple of notes.
	No, I have nothing from him.
	Nothing, nothing, nothing.
	Well, let me see if I have something, something.
	I got nothing.
	I just got the...
	I don't know what the deal is.
	Mark, send us a note and we'll read it on the next show.
	As a make good.
	Okay, back to the spreadsheet.
	Onward to...
	I got this new monitor we should talk about later.
	David Poole in Fairbanks, Alaska.
	33333.
	Adam and John.
	I look forward to a dose of media deconstruction every Thursday and Sunday.
	Glad I can help support the show in any way.
	I'm sure Silicon Valley isn't getting any cheaper these days.
	Alaska's got inverse temperatures and inverse economy of California.
	I hear the rates on helicopter insurance are insane with this relaxation of drone regulations.
	Is that true?
	Yeah.
	It's getting complicated.
	But all good for me.
	I have a secondary career waiting for me.
	So this being my second donation at executive producer level, I was curious if I could buy out all...
	This is a good one.
	This is not possible, David.
	If I could buy out all the...
	Well, it is possible, but it's a little steep.
	I was curious if I could buy out all the time on Jingle Request.
	I was donating below the producer level for show 900.
	Too late now.
	This will mean that you push forward more of the content that's always mentioned, but move ahead to Sundays.
	Move it to Sundays.
	If this is agreeable, can you play a few lines of white people rich and a douchebag?
	So it's not acceptable.
	White people rich?
	Isn't that the thing from Brushwood's podcast?
	I think this is it.
	I think this is what he's talking about.
	He don't care how much it is.
	Now, they played this when I was on this show.
	It is Brushwood.
	It's okay.
	He's mixing up his shows.
	Yeah, it's the wrong show, but there you go.
	You've got karma.
	Black Knight of Ben Dural, Sir Mr.
	Texas of Phoenix, 33333.
	John and Adam, I've made it to Baron.
	You're on the list, I think.
	Once I was Black Knight of Ben Beryl, Sir Mr.
	Texas of Phoenix, but now I shall be known as Eat Paste Baron of all things adhesive, including all Velcro-type fasteners.
	Okay.
	If space aliens come, I shall pray that they do not eat you first.
	Okay.
	I'm all for it.
	Thank you.
	Appreciate the thought.
	Thank you.
	That's very kind of you.
	I'm Mark Hudson in Otley, West Yorkshire, UK, 325.
	And one more because you guys are my brain medicine in this crazy fractal world.
	Is there anything above this?
	I don't see it.
	Maybe there's something below.
	In this crazy fractal world.
	Smiley face.
	Congratulations on 900 episodes.
	Looking to 900 more ITM. Alrighty.
	Thank you.
	Craig Weinberg in Milbank, South Dakota.
	300.
	ITM, gents.
	I realize it's been far too long since my last donation.
	Clearly this isn't close to what you two deserve.
	For all the sanity and insight you bring us.
	But a third of 900 is a start.
	Happy 900 shows.
	Keep up with the good work.
	I also want to wish Sarah, my lovely wife of nearly 12 years, happy 37th birthday on Friday.
	She's the best.
	Can I get John's Ants song?
	And thanks, Obama.
	Yeah, a little bit, sure.
	You can always do a little bit of the Ants song.
	It is a no-agenda favorite, after all.
	This is the one that will be on the album.
	I got Ants.
	I got ants.
	I don't know if you had ants.
	We had ant invasion.
	I was thinking if you desiccated a big pile of ants and then ground them to a powder like a fine grind.
	Thanks, Obama.
	You've got karma.
	This is interesting.
	Sir Greg Birch up there, the dentist, the dentite from Port Angeles, Washington, came in with $300 and says, John and Adam, I'm still here.
	I haven't missed any of the 900 episodes, which is like 112 days of my life.
	You'll never get back is what you're supposed to say after that.
	Yes, that's how he's supposed to put it.
	Sir Greg Birch, my son gave me mutton and meat for Christmas.
	It was delicious.
	He actually says delicious.
	That's what he says.
	Thank you.
	Good to know that you're still around, Sir Birch.
	Downgrading to Associate Executive Producer for show 900, Billy Grantham in Parts Unknown USA, 250.
	I've listened for way too long and been a deadbeat.
	So here's my first installment towards endowment of the Curvorak Scholarship.
	Curvorak.
	Oh, I see.
	For the reduction of over-medicated, misinformed, PC-shamed, malnourished, electronically lobotomized atrazineholics.
	It's re-education, not reduction.
	Oh, you're right.
	But I'm going to give him a deduce.
	You've been deduced.
	Since it's his first installment towards his endowment.
	Okay.
	Steve Hightower, which is no parts unknown, but it could be somewhere in California.
	Glenn Ellen.
	Oh, he's in Glenallen?
	Okay.
	Oh, there he is.
	Okay, I see it.
	By my, Glenallen is where Jack London lived.
	By my accounting, this should put me over the top for knighthood.
	You can dub me Sir Torialta of Slonoma.
	Done.
	Done, done, done.
	Looking forward to the ceremony.
	Yeah, dynamite.
	Sir Finchnasty, Knight of the Bachelor Butte.
	2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
	By Mike, congratulations on show 900.
	Truly an amazing feat.
	Thank you for being our saviors of sanity and for the outstanding deconstruction throughout the election season post-election.
	May I get a dedouching as this is my first donation since completing my knighthood last year and a residency slash jobs karma for my smoking hot wife.
	Love and light.
	Sir Finch Nasty, Knight of the Bachelor Butte.
	Well, of course.
	You've been de-douched.
	That's one, I'd like to.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!
	You've got karma.
	Thank you.
	A Ben MNOP in Portland, Oregon, 225.
	Congratulations on 900 by the Value for Value model.
	I owe you more money than my donation, but here it is at last.
	Hopefully I'm a little ashamed not to be a knight by now, and even more that this is my first monetary donation.
	I've been mooching Jobs Karma for months, promising a donation once I landed a new job, and producing By hitting my four siblings and both parents in the mouth.
	Got one brother listening, still working on the rest.
	Well, it's happened in two months.
	I went to Gitmo Nation East in London Town on a Tier 2 work visa for a few years.
	I can't afford to do $900, so here's 900 quarters to officially list my name among the ranks of the producerships.
	Finally and hopefully swiftly on my way to making an A-hole again.
	I won't forget the value for value-ing for the last eight years.
	And then he goes on with some notice about the other best, supposed best podcast in the universe, somebody taking credit for it.
	Keep up the fantastic and balanced work you do.
	Haters gonna hate, but there's still intelligent people who hear your deconstructions as intended on the media and not politically driven.
	NPR can't do it.
	They're part of the media.
	Your position outside of the mainstream is important and your under-the-radar format is genius.
	No analysis in the universe.
	Multiverse or metaverse approaches it.
	Thanks for the years of pure entertainment, too.
	Go podcast!
	Once a de-douching, once a resist, we much, Atlas Shrugged, and No Con Frict.
	As a salute to pure, unfettered capitalism and irrational self-interest, the only effective way to rebel against consumerism is to produce.
	Thanks for your courage.
	Keep up the good fight.
	Oh, thank you so much.
	That's a very kind note.
	You've been de-douching.
	But resist, we much.
	We must, and we will much, about that be committed.
	Atlas Trust.
	By Ayn Rand.
	There's no real conflict!
	You've got karma.
	Nailed it.
	Mark Mallon.
	Another Parts Unknown donation.
	209.99.
	This is my first donation.
	I need a vigorous and thorough de-douching.
	Well, let's do it right now, then.
	Let's do it right now.
	You've been de-douched.
	Back during the primaries, I felt I wasn't getting the whole story on what was going on.
	The reports I was hearing from the news just didn't add up.
	And I was looking for more information about, or without all of the narratives and lies.
	I remember watching JCD on tech TV many years ago and thought he was a straight shooter and had seen him tweet about no agenda, so I figured I'd check it out.
	I listened to maybe one or two episodes and I was hooked.
	I get more information from two shows a week than I could from watching MSM, mainstream media, 12 hours every day.
	I really appreciate what you both do.
	Keep up the good work.
	For the jingles, I like a Trump, bing bong bong, and a thanks, Obama.
	Bing bing bong bong bing bong.
	Thanks, Obama.
	That's actually a good combination.
	Let's do that again.
	I just kind of like that.
	Bing bing bong bong bing bong.
	Thanks, Obama.
	Ah, yeah.
	John from Parts Unknown, 201-33.
	I stumbled upon the No Agenda show years ago and haven't missed an episode since.
	I've been a loyal monthly donor for a while now.
	Now I've got the occasion of the 900th show.
	I finally reached knighthood.
	In light of my forthcoming relocation, I'd be honored if you bestowed me with the title of Sir John, The One Knight in Bangkok.
	That's a good name.
	I like that.
	One Knight in Bangkok.
	Good.
	The One Knight in Bangkok.
	Jingle request?
	Fake news with the ping pong ball at the end, and you know, because Bangkok and some karma for all.
	Because you know Bangkok.
	Oh, I gotcha.
	Hey, hey, hey!
	You read that.
	Thank you.
	We've got karma.
	Karma.
	Sir Patrick of the Pugner Order, 201, Washington somewhere.
	He's sending a profile with a note.
	Is this it?
	I think so.
	Don't mention my full name.
	Okay, so we're done.
	We're good.
	I'm going to read his note.
	With a heavy heart, I observed the passing of Scott M. from Canada.
	I assume M stands for Man Overboard.
	I was riveted by his explanation for why he's departing the show.
	Global warming and guns.
	Well, if he is finished, I feel I must retort.
	Scott is my great hope that the door hit you in the ass on the way.
	Let's read that again.
	Scott, it is my great hope that the door hit you in the ass on your way out.
	You're not reminding me of my children.
	When they're in the bathroom, they yell loudly that they're in the bathroom and they're making poopy.
	I almost indulged in a moment of nostalgia about my youngsters, but then I remember that you were the source of this memory.
	You're the kind of fart-sniffing a-hole who tells other people what they should think.
	You also loudly pronounce why you won't listen to thought criminals.
	It is with a heavy heart that I ask John and Adam to start the Scott M Memorial Fund.
	It's my intention to make more donations to the best podcasts in the universe when we hear more BS like yours.
	I hope every other producer will feel inspired to donate.
	Scott M isn't the first.
	He won't be the last, but let every man overboard be a call to make a donation to the best podcasts in the universe.
	R.I.P. and peace, Scott.
	I can just see, like, t-shirts with milk cartons with, have you seen Scott M? You know, It's fantastic.
	Man overboard!
	The Scott M Foundation.
	We just have a piece.
	To the Canadian producers, are you going to let this man taint the Commonwealth?
	Donate to the Scott M Memorial Fund.
	Now, I do have a letter, which I'll read later in the show, from another Canadian who also blasted Scott M in a very funny way.
	And we'll get to that.
	No, no.
	Okay, good.
	This is exciting.
	I'm not the only one, I guess.
	I'm pumped.
	You're pumped.
	I'm pumped.
	Robert Montgomery in Newport, Vermont.
	$200.08.
	I started listening on episode one and donated early because I knew value for value.
	My monthly 11.11 subscription goes back to 2011.
	$79.92 currently.
	So this completes my knighthood, finally.
	I'm no longer able to listen to every show.
	I check in at least twice a month for my dose of media assassination.
	Thanks, guys, for all your hard work.
	Congrats on $900.
	You're on the list.
	Thank you so much, sir.
	Sir Woody of the Grizzled Geezer of the Dakota Territory and $200 from Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
	Dear Jan Hawker and Bindlestiff, happy Groundhog Day, Sir.
	Sir Woody of the Grizzled Geezer and the Dakota Territory turns the big 70 on your 900th show.
	Wow.
	Been here since show one.
	It'll be hard to...
	Heart to something, the end, with all the support I can muster.
	My congrats and best wishes, Sir Woody.
	And he's got a birthday call.
	Lauren Barrett, whose note I cannot find anywhere, although she's written before, and so she can send us a note if she needs a make good.
	This is fantastic.
	I always appreciate a showing, and it's always a number, but that's good.
	I like celebrating.
	This was a good show.
	This is made up for the last two shows, which are not interesting.
	Abysmal.
	Yeah.
	Not interesting.
	That's another way of putting it.
	Thank you.
	Thank you to our executive producers, our associate executive producers, our 900 club members.
	Going to be quite a list of credits today.
	And of course, we will be thanking more people, $50 and above in our second segment.
	We got a lot more to do today.
	But again, thank you so much.
	And remember, we do have another show coming up on Super Bowl Sunday.
	Dvorak.org.
	Slash N-A Which means perfect opportunity for hitting people in the mouth!
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	A new variety.
	A new variety.
	I wanted to just mention something briefly because you were talking about your monitor.
	So first of all, I don't know if you get these calls.
	It's very consistent.
	It's, hi, this is so-and-so, and it's different states.
	It's California, or then it's Texas, and it's Colorado.
	Is this the business owner?
	Yes.
	Do you want your Google Ads to perform properly?
	Yes.
	And it's actually, there's one that's really good, and I didn't get to record that one.
	You say, hello, and it's like, hello.
	You hear a woman, hello, hello.
	We talked about this, this is the robot woman.
	Yeah, and then she goes, who actually converses.
	Well, no, no, she's not conversing.
	No, this is not the robot.
	You say, hello, oh, oh, oh, it's just, I've had it three times now.
	Oh, I'm sorry, I was having a little problem getting my headset on.
	And then she just launches right into it.
	And you can say whatever you want, but she just won't stop unless you press, like, zero, and it'll go away.
	So that's actually interesting.
	And they always give you the option to opt out from the call list.
	And as a slave who is interested in the system, I always press one opt-out of the call list.
	I keep getting these calls.
	Yesterday, I get a call from a Google representative, and I see on my phone that it's coming from, I guess, Mountain View.
	And I'm like, hello?
	Yes, this is so-and-so from, you know, Google Ads.
	And we noticed that you wanted to opt out.
	Is this the business owner?
	I said, well, it depends what business.
	You know, I don't know what business you're calling about.
	He couldn't really answer that.
	And then he's like, well, I need a little bit of information from you.
	He said, no, no, no.
	Hold on a second.
	You have my phone number.
	I'd like to be taken off the call list.
	I'd like to no longer be called.
	He said, yeah, well, these are all of our official partners, our official partners.
	We give them their numbers so they can call because, you know, you're the business owner and you want to, of course, you want to have your Google Ads all.
	Oh, okay.
	Well, then we just need to complete the information, all your information, then you pay the fee, and then we can go ahead and put you on the no-call list.
	I said, why don't you suck my dick?
	Are you crazy?
	Sorry, timecode.
	I mean, is that the most...
	That's illegal as far as I'm concerned.
	We have a do not call...
	I think it is.
	That's extortion.
	It's extortion?
	It's illegal?
	It's extortion.
	They're threatening to keep calling you unless you give them money.
	That's extortion.
	It's that simple.
	Yes.
	Where's Elizabeth Warren when you need her?
	Yeah.
	Good luck with that.
	I'm not quite sure how I was going to tie that into your monitor.
	Just bitching in general.
	So I'm still having problems with my trackpad.
	I put to the side.
	I have an old wired mouse.
	And I ordered on Sunday.
	I ordered a new magic mouse and a mouse pad.
	And I was like, okay, this is great because it will be delivered in two days.
	I said you'll have it Wednesday.
	It said right there, want it Wednesday?
	Click here within 34 minutes.
	Which, you know, it's kind of like, please call for your special offer.
	Operator's standing by.
	You only have two minutes left.
	And I guess something great for the show will be good to go.
	Otherwise, if I knew it wasn't coming yesterday, I would have gone to a store somewhere.
	But this is new.
	They say two days, it's Amazon Prime, and it doesn't show up in two days.
	I have had this happen to me now numerous times.
	In fact, when I had the whole system blow out a couple shows ago and I lost my M-Audio, the show started an hour late because I had to dig up this AT, this Audio-Technica mic, which has a bunch of built-in stuff.
	And I found it and I said, oh, let's try this.
	It works fine.
	I've been using it ever since.
	I can recommend it.
	But I ordered a couple.
	I ordered an icicle and a shoe.
	I ordered a bunch of gear to keep my old system.
	It was the day for the show.
	It should have shown up on a Wednesday or I think a Wednesday.
	And it didn't.
	It showed up like Thursday or Friday.
	All this stuff all showed up.
	And I'm thinking, wait a minute, this is a day late, two days late?
	What am I supposed to do about it?
	They're obviously not giving out refunds because it's a fixed fee when you buy Prime.
	It's just a flat fee.
	And I think there's a little bait and switch going on here.
	If you're going to guarantee two-day delivery, deliver it in two days.
	Yeah, I mean, I do pay for Amazon Prime.
	Yeah, I do too.
	But I think this is going on all across the country.
	Wouldn't surprise you.
	Well, there's lots of stuff.
	Amazon has their own delivery guys in Austin, which is interesting.
	Oh, this is an Amazon truck?
	Yeah.
	Wow.
	Well, they still use FedEx and UPS. Oh, no.
	And the mail.
	They use everything they can, it seems to me.
	Sure they do.
	Sure they do.
	A couple of important dates to keep in mind.
	There is now a new meme.
	It is Feb 17.
	Feb 17, everybody.
	Feb 17.
	Have you heard about it, John?
	Feb 17.
	It's the three days after Valentine's Day?
	Yep.
	Feb 17 is a call for a worldwide general strike against Trumpism.
	Oh yeah, that's gonna go over.
	Trumpism.
	Yeah.
	But now I'm seeing this.
	This is trending.
	This is trending.
	February 17th.
	It's trending.
	It's trending.
	What day is that?
	Is that what day of the week is that?
	I don't know.
	Let me take a look at the calendar.
	Hey Siri, what day of the week does February 17 fall on?
	Hello, I'm doing this in an official way.
	It's Friday, February 17th.
	I want to just say, hey, John.
	I'll just do this wrong.
	So the people who are going to take the day off on a three-day weekend...
	Ah, there you go.
	Of course.
	If it was a Thursday or a Wednesday, I think it would have more meaning.
	But that's not going to happen.
	Did you see the Googlers unite?
	This was fun.
	You got it on me here.
	You have to look at hashtag Googlers unite, one word, on Twitter.
	And you'll see that Google employees, they streamed out of their workplace to protest Trump.
	They hate him.
	And it's interesting, they say, oh, there's more people here at Google protesting Trump than at the inauguration!
	That was pretty funny.
	Well, and we don't have to debate that, but I did learn something interesting.
	Remember then looking at the CCTV footage to satisfy the president's ego about how many people were actually there?
	Yeah.
	Well, it turns out...
	And this is from WAPO, no less.
	Hackers infected 70% of the storage devices that record data from D.C. police surveillance cameras eight days before President Trump's inauguration, forcing major citywide reinstallation efforts, which were not complete before the inauguration, which seems like a security risk to me.
	So I guess...
	Either, this is true, and there's also some mention of ransomware.
	So, the security cameras, CCTV cameras around D.C., the story is, and again, it's from WAPO, were infected with ransomware, and therefore, I think probably we might not be able to get all the proof that Trump is looking for.
	I don't know.
	I'd not heard this story.
	You know, when I think back on this whole episode, which continues in some funny way, I mean, I think everything he's doing seems to be pretty what you do, except for this occasional, like, I would call him a gaffe.
	Like, why didn't he just say, who cares?
	But...
	It reminds me of the meme.
	I think it was pretty much promoted mostly by Elizabeth Warren, which I thought they dropped the ball on as I look back on the election, which was the term thin-skinned.
	Yes.
	If you remember, Hillary would say it once in a while, but I think it was a not-invented-here thing.
	It wasn't part of the Hillary campaign or somebody else dreamed it up and they didn't want to use it.
	Oh, okay, yeah.
	And so I think it didn't fly.
	I thought it was a good one.
	I thought that was a good meme.
	I think Scott Adams, who kept analyzing these things from a hypnotist perspective.
	Persuasion.
	Yeah, especially because he's anything but thin-skinned, really.
	That's why it makes it so good.
	No, that's what makes it so good.
	Because he's sensitive, but he's not.
	He's weird, is what it is.
	But it was a great, great meme that they just dropped the ball on, and I think they could still pick it up.
	Well...
	I don't know what these guys are thinking.
	They're doing a very poor job.
	The gauntlet is down.
	I think they're doing a poor job of protesting.
	I think everything is...
	Like, you play with that Clinton clip, and you can play Obama.
	I think it was in 2003...
	Or, not Obama, but...
	uh in 2002 i think there was a whole bunch of uh disallowances of people that travel from the middle east into the country and that happened again during the obama administration at some point there was some but nobody you know it's it's just isolating the whatever trump does is something that's never been done before is ridiculous to cite my new friend mr davis from the aclu it's on tv everywhere yeah It's on TV everywhere!
	Well, speaking of TV everywhere, one of our producers helped me out a bit with the Doomsday Clock, which I know we talked about it the day.
	They said it, although apparently it's already been at this time before.
	There's two and a half minutes left, but it's been a week ago.
	How come it hasn't blown?
	Sometimes they also said it back.
	It's not always forward, it's also back.
	But do you know, and this short clip will accentuate that, the doomsday clock was there for one thing and one thing only up until this most recent change in its time.
	And that was for the threat of nuclear war.
	Right.
	That's what the doomsday clock is for.
	Exactly.
	That is no longer the case.
	The group behind the clock is made up of 15 Nobel laureates.
	Rachel Bronson is the executive director of the Bulletin.
	Since the clock was started in 1947, it's only changed 22 times in 70 years.
	Today marks the 23rd.
	The clock has hovered this close to midnight three times.
	The 1950s when the U.S. and Russia tested the hydrogen bomb.
	The 1980s during the Reagan era.
	And today...
	The clock moved forward 30 seconds after a lack of action on climate change.
	What?
	Yes.
	Oh, man.
	Insanity.
	It's no longer nukes.
	It's climate change as bad as a nuclear war.
	Although I'm sure that, you know, I guess Trump making friends with Putin is even scarier, I guess, for the nuclear war.
	I don't understand how that works.
	I don't either.
	You'd think it would work exactly the opposite way.
	Well, since we're going to go into screwball stuff, It's not as long as it was last time, and it's not going to be as long in the future.
	Wait a minute!
	Are you telling me you have a report?
	I do.
	Ladies and gentlemen, we have a special report.
	Breaking news, breaking news, special report.
	This is John C. Devorak's Miss University.
	Alright, so I watched the Miss Universe thing.
	It was very interesting.
	It was very well produced.
	It was done in the Philippines, so they've got some talent where they brought people over.
	It was dynamite.
	Now, this was no longer a Trump production, then?
	This is the first one?
	No, this was better than any Trump production in terms of its visuals.
	It was beautiful.
	Dynamite.
	And it was big.
	It was glamorous.
	It's too long, of course.
	And it was very little about the women.
	It's mostly just a bunch of fluff and a lot of ads.
	Now, just one moment, for people who are new to this program, for years, John has looked at the politicization of an entirely creepy, misogynistic ritual, which everyone seems to think is great.
	There's never a protest at the Miss Universe competition.
	I have nothing good to say about this one either.
	This was interesting though because there was less white girls, if you want, Caucasians, pure Caucasians.
	It was almost all multi-culti with a very few, curiously, I'll give it away, but Miss France won and she was...
	I think she was pretty white.
	She was pretty much just a Caucasian.
	Although she was, like, canned a lot.
	But there was, it was a mix.
	I mean, Miss Universe, say it was a black woman.
	There was a lot of black women.
	There was a lot of Asians.
	There was a lot of Spanish.
	Very few of the girls could speak English at the end, which was a little different.
	I'm just taking a look at...
	Hold on, I'm just...
	I did not watch anything.
	I did not even know that Miss France won.
	I'm taking a look at her picture now.
	And...
	Her teeth are funny.
	Well, it could be.
	Now, she was fine, but when you go through these clips, you'll see why she won.
	Again, a political situation.
	No!
	You don't say!
	Now, I don't want to sound like Milo, whatever his name is, and do fat shaming.
	But I will say, you Canadians up there, I think it was a bold move to put a plus-sized woman in the competition.
	Really?
	Are you being facetious?
	No.
	Okay, hold on.
	It was a plus-sized woman.
	In fact, let's listen to this guy.
	This is the clip.
	This is Mickey Speaks.
	This is a little...
	Okay.
	Thank you very much.
	Oh, I see you.
	Mickey, let me ask you.
	What's been the biggest surprise of you for the night?
	One thing that's been such a surprise is every single woman...
	Whoa, stop the presses.
	Is this a dude?
	Apparently.
	Oh my gosh.
	I'm looking at her now.
	I totally agree.
	Great.
	No, I'm not talking about her.
	I'm talking about the guy talking.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	I thought that was her talking.
	No, no, this is Mickey.
	I'm sorry.
	Thank you very much.
	I don't even know what he does.
	He's one of the gay judges, and he's going on and on.
	And he makes a little commentary that I thought referred specifically to Miss Canada.
	Thank you very much.
	Mickey, let me ask you, what's been the biggest surprise of you for the night?
	One thing that's been such a surprise is every single woman is amazing.
	So I think I have a favorite, and then someone else comes out and speaks to you or comes out in the swimsuit competition, and I suddenly have a new favorite, and I'm very confused.
	But they're all amazing.
	In the swimsuit competition, I particularly...
	They all looked amazing, but I loved the attitude of Canada, Brazil, France, and the Philippines.
	I thought they all...
	They all felt confident and unique and happy to be who they are and I think that's a great message to send to women around the world I'm very tired of these shows having gay men judge straight women It is insulting Somehow it's really insulting.
	Yeah, I don't like it either.
	Happy to be who they are was the kicker.
	Oh, I heard it.
	But this is bullcrap.
	First of all, I appreciate what you said.
	She's not a plus-size model.
	She's a normal woman.
	She looks like a plus-size model next to the other ones.
	I'm looking at her.
	This is not a plus-size model.
	She fills out a bathing suit nicely.
	She's beautiful.
	She's amazingly beautiful.
	When she's in the gown, she's plus-sized by any standards.
	I disagree.
	She's not a plus.
	I think she's a size 10, but not a plus size.
	She's a 16 if she's an ounce.
	Hold on a second.
	Look it up.
	Come on.
	All right.
	Onward.
	I don't care.
	I thought she was very good looking.
	She was very pretty.
	There's no doubt about that.
	But she was not in the same category.
	There was a couple of things I noticed, though, that the women weren't so muscle bound like they were in the past where they had that like a six pack, only the vertical one because they have different muscles in their stomachs.
	Very little of that.
	They were all smooth and lithe.
	Usually lithe.
	They were lithe.
	And...
	Except for Miss Canada.
	Steve Harvey, I will mention, totally blows as a host.
	Why did they rehire him?
	Because he screwed up last time.
	He was trying to fix it?
	Yeah.
	And he made a lot of jokes about it.
	Miss Haiti, who was a classic, again, this multi-culti thing, She was a Eurasian of some sort.
	She was absolutely beautiful, but she doesn't have any Haiti in her, it looks like to me.
	I don't know what that was all about.
	But let's listen to some of the people when they came up with the kind of questions they got.
	And we're going to start with Kenya, then we're going to go to Haiti, and then we're going to go to France, who won.
	So let's start with Miss Universe Kenya, and this was the Clinton question.
	Now...
	Arguably, no United States president has had a more active first 10 days in office.
	What are you most excited about and what most concerns you when it comes to the presidency of Donald Trump?
	Politics.
	What?
	Okay, let me just start again.
	Donald Trump having been elected as the president of the United States may not have been the choice of many people living in the United States because of the divided support system for the outgoing president, Barack Obama, who was supporting an upcoming woman president, who was supposed to be a woman president, Hillary Clinton.
	So, so many people opposed his position.
	But I feel that once he took up his position, he was able to unify the entire nation.
	Thank you very much.
	What was she saying?
	I have no idea.
	There's supposed to be a woman president, but he got it instead, or I don't know.
	Here's one that spoke English, actually.
	Haiti speaks English, too.
	There are other ones.
	It was just a waste of time.
	But let's go to Haiti.
	She has...
	You want to play that theremin?
	Play it right after this girl.
	Okay.
	On January 21st, an estimated 4.8 million people marched worldwide for human rights, women's rights, and other issues.
	If you were able to participate, what would you have been marching for?
	Hello everybody.
	One of the women I admire in the world is Eliana Roosevelt because she fought so much for human rights and I feel like that's what we need in the world.
	We are just one.
	A hundred thousand years ago, six species of human lived in the world and now we are just one and we all need each other and we need to respect each other.
	It actually fit in the music, the theremin.
	It was right there.
	Yeah, Eleanor Roosevelt.
	Oh, Eleanor.
	Oh, Eleanor.
	I just need to say one thing.
	I cannot believe that the chatroom has not given me the dress size for Miss Canada by this point.
	I've been saying, get me the dress size.
	You're all comedians.
	Do some work.
	All right, go on, Joe.
	Okay, now...
	And I don't mean to demean Canada.
	She's a very good looking woman.
	There's no doubt about that.
	All the women, I will say, again, like the last one we did, all the women could have won.
	They're all very pretty.
	Now, Now, when I do this analysis, the first thing I do is I record the whole thing, then I go to the end and see who won, and then analyze it from there.
	So I know who won before I even watch the show.
	Oh, that's probably a good idea.
	It's hard.
	That is, you're really falling on your sword there, because you're kind of ruining the whole payoff to make the show better.
	Exactly.
	Yeah.
	Now...
	Miss France won.
	I had to figure out why.
	Although she looked good in a gown, she looked good in a bathing suit.
	They all looked good in a bathing suit.
	The gowns, again, Miss Canada didn't really look good in a gown.
	So I listened to the, here's the questions and answers.
	This is one and two.
	I divided this up because I'm trying to analyze as she's answering the question.
	And I got excited with her answer because I said, wait a minute.
	This is interesting.
	And play part one.
	France, step right up.
	Given today's worldwide refugee crisis, do countries have an obligation to accept refugees, or do they have a right to close their borders?
	Given the crisis of refugees in the whole world, are countries are forced to accept refugees, or do they have to close their borders?
	The countries can have the choice to close or open their borders.
	So the country should have the right to open or close their borders.
	So, throughout the world, throughout the world, people can choose to have the borders world, people can choose to have the borders open or Well, we have a winner if we knew what the heck was going on.
	Well, we have...
	Now we're listening to someone who sounds like a nationalist.
	For one thing, the question is loaded.
	Do they have...
	Of course they have the right.
	That's the way I'd answer it.
	You asked me that question.
	Of course you have the right.
	You're a sovereign nation.
	You can shut the borders if you want to.
	It's your business.
	So I'm thinking as she answers this question kind of like that with Wimpy.
	I'm thinking, wow, this is interesting.
	She won the competition, and she seems to be a nationalist, but then she drops the other shoe.
	To have the borders open or closed.
	In Europe, we have open borders.
	In France, we want to have the most globalization that we can.
	We want to have the biggest exchange of people that we can.
	And maybe someday that will change, but now we have open borders.
	So having open borders allows us to travel more through the world and to find out more about what's out there in the world.
	Thank you very much!
	That's right!
	Open borders so we can find out more about what's out there.
	Really?
	No borders, no nations.
	No borders, no nations.
	So she's a globalist and she won.
	She wins.
	Based on that answer, as far as I can tell.
	I'm all there with you.
	The audience is hooting and hollering, even though they're in the Philippines.
	Hooting and hollering for globalism.
	Give me a break.
	An observation.
	I think it's...
	I don't recall a Miss Universe pageant where the contestant did not at least attempt English in her question and answer session.
	Same thing with Columbia and a couple others.
	Oh, they also had translators?
	Yeah, they had a translator.
	I think half of them were translated, and the ones that weren't very illiterate.
	English literate.
	No thanks to the chat room.
	Miss Canada, before she went into competition, lost 129 pounds.
	She was a dress size 24.
	She is now size 8.
	She's not an 8.
	Now, that's misogynistic.
	You can't be saying the girl is lying about her size.
	I think she's an 8.
	She may even be a 6, really.
	Fine.
	She can say whatever she wants.
	I think it's remarkable that she got in the competition.
	She put a lot of effort into it, but she could have...
	If she got down to an 8...
	You know what it is, John?
	I'm just surprised that I look at her and I don't see what you see.
	You said you saw a plus-size model.
	You didn't see the show.
	I'm looking at pictures.
	You're looking at pictures.
	It's different.
	You're looking at photographs.
	I'm looking at tele...
	Maybe I'm just in another dimension.
	I don't think so.
	I think it's fine.
	I had no problem with it, except it stood out like a sore thumb.
	Now that she lost 120 pounds, it makes even more sense that she'd win in Canada, because they're proud of anything a Canadian can actually accomplish.
	There goes the Canadian vote.
	Take that, Scott M. Okay, good report, John.
	Thank you.
	You're welcome.
	Always fun.
	You have to suffer through these things.
	I know, I know.
	Well, I've been suffering through a lot of social justice warrior stuff.
	Well, wait, before you go there, I think you might as well, since we were talking about bitching and moaning about Canada, maybe I'll make up for it real quick, but this is the letter.
	Oh, okay.
	Yes.
	This is the Canadian guy.
	This is B.W. Do you need any kind of view?
	He says, as a fellow Canadian, I would just like to say that Scott M., or whatever his name is, that was crying about handguns and climate gate do not reflect the views of real Canadians.
	I would also like to suggest he ventures up the Victoria Fish and Game Protection Association and talk to the hundreds of us, including my 10-year-old daughter, who enjoys the sport of shooting both long and short guns.
	By his theory, we should also remove any car capable of breaking the speed limit and stop selling booze and tobacco while we're at it.
	we're at it dogs uh get you get rid of dogs because some of them could kill someone as for climate gate i'm guessing he didn't notice the jump in pump price in our province and how it has received since since we instituted the carbon tax or the cost of riding ferries to the mainland has increased over carbon tax and the increase in our power bill is carbon tax this is being odd since our power is nearly 100 hydroelectric and with all the war this is worry
	the system has to come up with nothing to stop climate change other than carbon tax This alone should be enough to prove that there is something amiss.
	In my short 34 years, we have seen the coming doom of the climate in every form from the Ice Age to growing oranges in Alaska.
	Yet still, nothing close to a fix for either, with the exception of carbon tax.
	So while he sits in Sydney, Canada...
	Breathing out all that carbon, I ask that he hold his breath and stop contributing to climate change.
	It's clear the small amount of patchouli and the taste of granola that is prevalent in Victoria has gotten to this man's brain.
	Keep it up, man.
	Though I haven't...
	I haven't been in a financial situation to donate.
	I have, however, been propagating the formula, and thankfully this is the latest ship jumper, was the one who punched, who was punched in the mouth, who oh punched in the mouth, I don't know what that means.
	John, thank you for repairing our relationship with Canada.
	I think that worked.
	He says, yours truly, your number one non-donating douchebag.
	Alright.
	Okay, that's good.
	Anyway, just wanted to show you, Canadians are helping us unite against this character.
	No.
	Scott M. Memorial Foundation.
	The Scott M. Memorial Foundation.
	It wasn't a big news item, but I think it is important to notice, since we talked about it previously, Grand Wizard Eagle Scout Rex Tillerson.
	Who has now been confirmed as the Secretary of State.
	Of course, also the head of the Boy Scouts of America, who helped bring in gay scouts into the BSA, as it's known.
	And we have an update.
	After weeks of significant...
	This is not Tillerson, of course.
	This is some spokeshole from the Boy Scouts of America.
	After weeks of significant conversations at all levels of our organization, we realize that referring to birth certificates as the reference point is no longer sufficient.
	Communities and state laws are now interpreting gender identity differently than society did in the past, and these new laws vary widely from state to state.
	Starting today, we will accept registration in our scouting programs based on the gender identity provided on an individual's application.
	We will also continue to work with families to find scouting units that are the best fit for their children.
	In summary, we've taken the opportunity to evaluate and update our approach.
	I hope you will join with me in embracing the opportunity to bring scouting to more families and children that can benefit from what our program has to offer.
	The BSA is committed to identifying program options that will help us truly serve the whole family and this is an area that we will continue to thoughtfully evaluate to bring the benefits of scouting to the greatest number of youth possible.
	So I feel And I'm all for protest without violence.
	I feel if you're going to protest the idea that this administration is filled with people who hate women, hate gays, hate blacks, hate brown, hate yellow, hate anything, that where is the celebration that the Boy Scots of America have done this?
	I think there should be some mention of it.
	It'd be encouraging Trump.
	What, to say good job, Rex Tillerson?
	It'd be encouraging Trump.
	It's not good.
	Okay.
	Well, since you brought it up, a guy doing the rounds who was very interesting to listen to.
	I watched him for quite a while on Don Lemon, you know, the overnight sensation there on CNN. It's a Michael Eric Dyson professor, and he's written a book, which is why he's promoting it everywhere.
	When he answered, he speaks in long, drawn-out sentences.
	I'm trying to give an example of how he does it.
	So, if you said something to me that I didn't like, I would say, well, John, if you had actually truly done the investigative process on my background and my heritage, you might not have been proselytizing so much of what you were saying to me in that moment five seconds ago.
	I did a little more Al Sharpton there, which is not how he sounds, but he talks long drawn out.
	And he's very insulting as well.
	He's insulting.
	Yeah, of course.
	And he's on The View, so it's a twofer.
	Donald Trump is the rose.
	What is the ground, okay, or another flower?
	What is the ground from which he emerged?
	Whiteness produced him.
	A certain sense of selfishness, a certain sense of self-importance, a certain sense of innocence, a certain sense of privilege that he fails to acknowledge.
	And the best of white culture has to war against the worst of white culture for us to embrace it.
	Because remember, Frankenstein is the name of the doctor, not the monster.
	So what produced this heinous manifestation we see of President Bannon, I mean President Trump...
	Many people refuse to admit that their own whiteness is a privilege and you say, quote, the most radical action a white person can take is to acknowledge this denied privilege, to say, yes, you're right.
	What do white people not understand about what it means to be black in America?
	White brothers and sisters don't see that they have privilege.
	They say, oh my God, look at you people who are politically correct now.
	You want safe spaces.
	Well, your white body is a safe space in a way that African-American, Latino women's bodies are not.
	So what I'm suggesting to white Americans, I love you.
	I want you to engage in the introspection that you encourage everybody else to do and then think about the privilege.
	The ultimate white privilege may be this.
	You encounter a police person and live to tell about it.
	Many people of color do not do that.
	Many people who are outside the parameters of what it means to be acceptable cannot have that engagement.
	So I'm saying there are many privileges that white brothers and sisters have.
	And if you acknowledge it, then we can figure out how to unmask that privilege and then to challenge it.
	Because I think Donald Trump, not to get back to him, but to be on him, Donald Trump is the manifestation, the very face of a kind of white refusal to grow up.
	This is the first toddler presidency.
	This is the inability to acknowledge...
	The legitimacy of America as a great nation, and I think Donald Trump needs to be held to account.
	Ooh, very loaded, this.
	A lot going on.
	What does it mean to unmask and challenge I heard that.
	The whole point of what he said was to unmask and challenge.
	And I believe what he is saying is that...
	What does that even mean?
	I believe what he is implying is that white privilege built Donald Trump and we need to take that mask off and admit that white privilege is running the country.
	And we all have to...
	I think the t-shirt, my body is my safe space, is dynamite.
	What a great idea.
	I can't argue.
	I can't argue that there's white privilege if you want to see it that way.
	I can't argue that, so thank you.
	I think about it a lot.
	I think about it all the time.
	I help my black and brown and yellow and red brothers and sisters.
	But what's it to you?
	Well, I'll tell you what it's to you.
	You get a check for that?
	You get a check for this privilege?
	No, that guy does.
	I don't get a check.
	But this guy breeds other types of hate.
	So he's on The View, and he's being...
	Cautious.
	Well, he also made this snide comment President Bannon.
	Yeah, haha, he's so funny.
	Because he's talking about white supremacists, and that guy's a racist, white supremacist, KKK. It's all the memes we've heard over and over again.
	What this results in, though, is something I want to play.
	Two minutes.
	And it's a piece of a longer video.
	It is...
	A social justice warrior.
	This is in Seattle during one of the protests.
	And she gets on the megaphone and she starts pretty much the same message as the professor, only laced with profanity.
	John, some of your least favorite words are in here, so just bear with me, please, because there is a kicker at the end that you will appreciate.
	But the MF word is all over the place and is directed at white people, so I'm just letting you know.
	I think I can handle it.
	Let me just...
	A little deep breathing.
	Okay.
	I didn't want your brain to shut off so that, you know, because I know...
	Look, I'm just saying.
	Anyway, thank you.
	Listen for the kicker at the end about this woman and listen to what she's saying.
	Honestly, fuck white supremacy.
	Fuck the U.S. empire.
	Fuck your imperialist ass black.
	That shit gotta go.
	Fuck.
	You know what America thrives off of?
	Capitalism.
	We use our motherfucking fucking black and brown bodies to live and survive while white people own fucking properties after that.
	Yeah, they're all poor white people, right?
	But black and brown people are affected by all of the shit around us.
	And capitalism is one of them.
	So you know what we need to do?
	We need to start giving fucking money.
	White people, give your fucking money, your fucking house, your fucking property.
	We need it fucking all.
	And by the way, there's predominantly white people in the crowd who are cheering her on while she's doing this.
	Reparate black and indigenous people right now.
	Pay the fuck up.
	Pay the fuck up.
	It ain't just your fucking time.
	It's your fucking money and your fucking life is now devoted to social change.
	Right?
	Yeah.
	Some of us are working 40 fucking hours, you know?
	40 fucking hours and juggling fucking different classes under white supremacy.
	We're all operating under white supremacy, just so you know.
	The White House must die.
	The White House, your fucking White House, your fucking president, they must go.
	Fuck the White House.
	Fuck the White House and fuck your voting.
	I'm with her, Donald Trump.
	I don't give a fuck.
	Capitalism.
	Capitalism is what?
	We, it's fucking racism.
	You know?
	Okay?
	I'm tired.
	I'm fucking tired.
	I'm fucking tired.
	Now here it comes.
	You know what?
	I am a preschool teacher who's going to fucking radicalize.
	So this is teaching your...
	Well, hold on a second.
	For the punchline, I didn't understand a word she said.
	Oh, you didn't hear the punchline?
	No.
	Oh, I'm so sorry.
	Everyone else did.
	No.
	Chatroom did.
	Here it comes.
	I am a preschool teacher who's gonna fucking radicalize.
	She's a preschool teacher.
	She's a preschool teacher.
	Oh, she's a preschool teacher.
	This woman, who could not say one sentence without an F-bomb, is a preschool teacher and intends to teach her children this way.
	Well, that's something.
	Frightening.
	And capitalism is racism?
	Seriously?
	No, this is a classic, old-school, and I've been thinking about this, because we've asked the question over and over again, and RT asks the question, we all ask it.
	Why are we pointing the finger at Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia?
	And why are they the bad guys?
	And why don't we want to be friends with them, and then we're all in with questions about no nations, no borders, no borders, no nations?
	And this woman comes on at Capitalism.
	All this.
	This is old, old communist rhetoric.
	Yeah.
	It's communist rhetoric.
	How did it get into her mind?
	It's communist rhetoric, and this is the reason that the Russians are having the finger pointed out, because you can still pretend that they're a communist country.
	But in fact, the international order of socialism, the old school internationalists, the old globalists, the old globalists, Guys, the UN, people who started the UN, these sorts that want one world government, they want one world government under the UN. Right, well Black Lives Matter is a communist organization.
	Yes, but the reason that Russia, I thought, the reason Russia is pointed out, Russia is against this.
	Ever since the Soviet Union broke up, the Russians became capitalists.
	It's a form of capitalists, a socialistic form of capitalists, much like in China.
	But it's not communism anymore.
	And so they're excoriated, they're condemned for getting off the, because they were the ones who were, the Russians, the Russians.
	Oh, this is good.
	Yes, of course.
	Soviet Union was the one supporting all these crappy organizations that were all subversive and they had women like this yelling about this and that.
	The socialist worker...
	I'm sorry, the socialist workers.
	Soros has to do this now.
	He's the one that's spending the money to keep this crap going on.
	The Russians are...
	They're out of it, and you know they're against the EU because they see that as just something building up to be another attack on their country.
	Socialist, communist piece of crap, yeah.
	And so, if you start looking at the redefining everything, what's going on in the world is, again, nationalism versus globalism.
	And you keep falling on the wrong side of this, and you keep falling on, oh yeah, it's better if we have no borders, it's better if we don't have any sovereignty whatsoever.
	We formed this country, it's only, I guess, 200 years ago?
	Something like that.
	A little more than 200 years ago?
	240.
	And now it's, get rid of the borders, we don't need it, let people come in, so what about our, we don't care about our own people, is what it says.
	American Yankee Today or Die!
	Exactly.
	And of course they're pissed that the Russians aren't on board anymore.
	No, the Russians used to run the show.
	And they're not on board anymore.
	This is terrible.
	This is great analysis, John.
	This is great analysis.
	It's the only thing I can think of of why Russia's a target.
	Thanks, Obama.
	If you're blue and you don't know where there's fake news, why don't you get your Gitmo fix?
	Putin on the rest.
	Dressed up like a million dollar trooper.
	Everybody!
	Trying not to look like Anderson Cooper.
	Super Cooper!
	Come, let's mix where John Podesta walks with kids.
	Oh, I mean pizzas in his midst.
	Putin on the Ritz.
	That's right!
	Boom, boom!
	Another no-agenda analysis.
	Now, I do want to play this little clip, which has something to do with that, because it's OK for these people to tell everyone to shut up, tell the white women to shut up.
	Shut up, slave!
	You know, somebody says shut up on the other side.
	That's a terrible thing.
	Let's play keep mouth shut democracy now.
	OK.
	The battle between Donald Trump and the press escalated on Thursday after one of Trump's top advisers called the media the opposition party.
	In a rare interview with the New York Times, Trump's chief strategist Steve Bannon said, Bannon added, I want you to quote this...
	The media here is the opposition party.
	They don't understand this country.
	They still do not understand why Donald Trump is the president of the United States, unquote.
	Bannon's the former head of right-wing Breitbart Media, which frequently publishes racist, sexist, anti-immigrant, and xenophobic news.
	And porn.
	They forgot porn.
	Just add porn in there.
	Now, what's interesting about this is that she conveniently leaves out a clause This is a classic example of, I would call it fake news because there's no reason that you have to go into that little rant at the end not to put this in.
	Here's what Bannon said.
	And tell me it doesn't change the media.
	She says the media should be embarrassed and humiliated and keep its mouth shut.
	That's what she says he said.
	That's not what he said.
	He said the media should be embarrassed and humiliated and keep its mouth shut and just listen for a while.
	Oh, that's very different.
	It's very different.
	Sorry.
	It's a declarative.
	It's like, keep your mouth shut.
	Instead of, you say, could you be quiet for a second?
	Just listen.
	I've got to finish this thought.
	I mean, there's a huge difference.
	She is misleading her listeners on Democracy Now!
	And the joke of it is, she had the right quote up on the screen.
	Somebody put it up to me by mistake.
	Interesting.
	And she only, she cuts it right off.
	I just thought that was...
	And this is going around all through that media.
	It's all Ben said to keep your mouth shut.
	Keep your mouth shut.
	He said keep your mouth shut and just listen for a while.
	It's a big difference.
	Speaking of keeping your mouth shut, Nancy Pelosi attended some kind of demonstration where she was going to tell everybody about how evil Trump is.
	And her microphone was not working.
	She literally had to shut up.
	And it was kind of funny.
	What?
	Good evening, everyone.
	Thank you very much for coming out.
	Is the sound working?
	Got it?
	The sound working?
	I can hear you.
	Can you hear us?
	Good evening, everyone.
	I'm very proud to hear...
	I'll just stand with the members of the House Democratic Caucus, soon to be joined by the Senate Democrats as well.
	It's not on?
	Is somebody going to deal with this?
	Is somebody going to deal with this?
	Let me help her out.
	Let me help her out.
	Is somebody going to deal with this?
	You should see her face.
	Let me help her out.
	I know how to do this.
	This is how you do it, Nancy.
	It's not on?
	Is somebody going to deal with this?
	I check!
	I check!
	There you go.
	I check.
	I love it when stuff doesn't work.
	It's so funny.
	Hey, let's take a break, John.
	The show's going long, obviously, because we have long donation segments, so I'd like to, timing-wise, I'd like to hit the C block right now, if that's good with you.
	I thought we were going to the E block.
	It's ABC.
	This is the C block.
	Can I have a check there?
	Yeah, Adam, it is indeed.
	You're going to the E block.
	D is for the closest.
	All right, John, I stand corrected.
	Ah, this one.
	Imagine all the people who could do that.
	Oh, yeah, that'd be fab.
	Yeah, on the agenda in the morning.
	All right, we do have a few people to thank, including a lot of well-wishers for the 900 of the show, but this is our regular donation segment.
	First guy, not to mention, he says, in Quebec, he knows who he is, $180.
	So just keep doing exactly what you think is best.
	So far, it's perfect.
	Another Canadian.
	Thank you.
	William Trent from Hoboken, New Jersey, $144.

	Simon Leonard in Victoria, B.C., another B.C.er.
	Stephen Cosmini in Victoria, B.C. Also, hey, maybe that guy should send in more complaints.
	Robert Derdrykusen in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.
	That is rather interesting, how our Canadian producers are all stepping up and saying, yeah, that's just one douchebag.
	They're very, might I say, nationalistic, actually.
	I like that.
	They're like, hey, Canadians are good.

	Victoria, BC is the prettiest town on the West Coast, period.
	And I would like to point out that in order to make the 90-90 donation or the 90-09, it actually cost each of our producers up there, I think, $170.

	Hold on a second.
	Can I just, for one second, indulge?
	Yeah.
	He sent a nice note in which I saved for reasons of saving it and discussing it on the show.
	Here it is.
	Dude named Muhammad.
	He says...
	Yes.
	In the morning, as a brown Muslim, I think Trump's ban is reasonable.
	The countries who were affected are war-torn, rebel-ized...
	And not effectively managed against terrorist groups.
	I'm actually surprised Afghanistan is not in the list.
	Well, we need to get the poppies in, dude.
	Hello.
	I'm actually surprised why extreme vetting did not take place earlier.
	I also think that classifying the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization is another great step in the right direction.
	And yes, John, now I too think Obama is a Muslim.
	Thank you for your courage.
	Dude named Mohammed.
	Well, I'm glad he thinks that because it's...
	It's so obvious.
	I think it too.
	Yeah.

	Well, it's not bad.
	Do they have mold?
	It's the prettiest place you've ever seen.
	It's got a little Chinatown.
	It's unbelievable.
	We actually go up there specifically to get dim sum.
	Huh.
	Uh...
	I can go on about Victoria quite a bit.
	Chris Bennett in Victoria, as we just said.

	We want to thank each and every one of them.
	It makes a huge difference.
	It keeps the show lively, to say the least.
	It takes up some time to thank everyone, but it's worth it.
	Thanks, Obama.
	Yeah, we really do appreciate this showing of support.
	Thank you.
	And it came with lots of other things, clips and all kinds of cool stuff.
	So this is it.
	You're a part of it.
	You're part of making...
	It's really interactive.
	Hey, we're interactive, John.
	It's interactive radio.
	It's about time somebody was.
	And we'll have another interactive session with you coming up on Sunday.
	Please remember us.
	And also, of course, thanks to everybody who came in under $50 for our subscriptions, or usually reasons of anonymity.
	I know we have a couple of podcast licenses.
	Please email me again and set in the subject line podcast license, and that way I can hook you up.
	Also, we got a couple of, we need some dedouching, some jobs karma.
	You've been de-douched.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!
	You thought karma.
	We got a nice list today.
	We have Craig Weinberg saying happy birthday to his wife, Sarah.
	She turns 37 tomorrow.

	Ten nightings, three title changes.
	Let's do the title changes first, if you don't mind.
	Wow.
	What do you think?
	That's a ten-pointer.
	That is Secret Agent Paul.
	Once again, the guy is so good.
	Yes, title changes.
	Sir Richard Gardner becomes Baron Richard Gardner.
	Do not have any protectorate for him listed yet.
	Sir Zachary Knight of the Bluff City becomes a Baronet.
	And also congratulations to Black Knight Ben Dural.
	Sir Mr.
	Texas of Phoenix becomes a Baron today.
	Congratulations on your newfound titles.
	Of course, that will be reflected on our peerage list.
	Peerage.
	Alrighty.
	Now, let's get all these...
	Well, first, let's...
	I got my blade.
	I need yours.
	Oh, man.
	Did you bring it?
	Let me spray some of this farmer's helper here on there.
	Oh, here we go.
	Here we go.
	It's loosening.
	You're spraying the farmer's helper.
	Well, yeah, that's a farm hand.
	Ranch hand, you might mean.
	Yeah, ranch hand.
	Yeah.
	All right!
	On the podium, I need Matthew Gebhardt, John from Parts Unknown, Alex Bortog, Joseph Hatch, Andre Klaus, Stephen Hightower, Robert Montgomery, Paul Shabati.
	I need all of you here because it is time to bring you into our roundtable of the No Agenda Knights and Dames.
	You know how it works.
	You donate in the amount of $1,000 or more, and we welcome you in.
	Here you go.
	I'm very proud to pronounce KD as Sir Matthew Gebhardt, Sir John, the One Night in Bangkok, Sir John, Sir Alex, the knight of a northern lunch pad.
	Sir Joseph Hatch.
	Sir Andrew Klaus.
	Sir Tartella.
	Sir Turalta of Solonama.
	Sir Robert Montgomery.
	And Sir Paul the Black.
	I ran out of music.
	That's crazy.
	Oh my god.
	Well, gentlemen, for you, hookers and blow-rim boys and chardonnay, ginger ale and gerbils, mutton and meat, of course, and bong hits and bourbon.
	Go to noagenthenation.com slash rings and give Eric the Shill your dress size.
	I'm sorry.
	Your ring size.
	And we'll get you out to you as soon as possible.
	We should have a lot of pictures being tweeted from this particular program.
	Okay.
	Good.
	Yes.
	I don't know how much you have left.
	There's a clip I've been holding on to for two weeks now, I think.
	And it's actually a clip of Australian television, and I tried to speed it up to make it a little faster, of all the things Trump has done in his first week.
	And it's interesting because they actually set it up by saying, yeah, we're just going to tell you all the things Trump has done in his first week.
	And then they just go, and the list is abrasive.
	Would you like to hear?
	Yeah, let's go, because then I'll go to the Australian clip about the fuss made over the...
	Perfect.
	And if you get tired of it, just tell me to stop.
	But I thought it was quite funny.
	Let's take a moment to reflect on the first week of the Trump presidency.
	We could do this by dissecting the things that he's done and have made headlines and then attempt to comprehend the ramifications.
	Or we could just list every single action that he's taken, because I think perhaps the enormity of that alone is quite remarkable.
	In his first week as president, Donald Trump signed his first executive order, starting the rollback of Obamacare.
	He took control of the nuclear codes and declared January 20, his inauguration day, the national day of patriotic devotion.
	His White House spokesman lied in his first press briefing by saying the inauguration sizes were the biggest in history, and a senior Trump adviser defended the lies, saying they were alternative facts.
	He ordered the National Park Service off Twitter.
	After retweeting images comparing Obama's and Trump's inauguration crowds.
	Trump planted staffers to cheer and applaud at a speech he gave to the CIA. He bypassed anti-nepotism laws to hire his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, as a senior White House advisor.
	His office confirmed that he would never release his tax records.
	President Trump withdrew America from the TPP, a multinational economic deal that's been seven years in the making.
	It's alleged the President allowed his businesses to take money from foreign governments, which this week saw him face a new lawsuit for breaching the Constitution We're good to go.
	It was also revealed this week his youngest daughter Tiffany, his White House strategist Stephen Bannon and his Treasury Secretary Stephen Mnuchin are all also registered to vote in two states.
	And he reinstated a global gag rule which cuts all US funding from international NGOs that offer and counsel women on abortion.
	The next day his party passed a bill that permanently bans American women from using federal funds or private health insurance towards abortion services.
	He vowed to cut funding to violence against women's programs as well as national arts and humanities, legal services, minority business development programs, public broadcasting and the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy.
	Trump's administration removed the Spanish version of the White House website and deleted pages on civil rights, LGBT rights and climate change.
	He overturned the ban on two major oil and gas projects.
	The protesters claim could contaminate water and destroy sacred land.
	He ordered a total media blackout on the Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Agriculture and Health and Human Services.
	He also imposed a hiring and regulatory freeze across government agencies, except for the military and some public safety sectors.
	President Trump drafted orders to temporarily suspend America's refugee intake with an indefinite ban on Syrians.
	He also announced plans to halve America's asylum program.
	He drafted plans to suspend new visas for people from Iraq, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen.
	The President also drafted a plan to open CIA black sites around the world to reintroduce torture as an interrogation technique.
	President Trump moved to redirect allocated federal funds to start building a $20 billion wall on the southern border.
	After Mexico again refused to pay for that wall, Trump tweeted a suggestion to the Mexican President that he cancel their upcoming meeting.
	He did.
	Trump then flagged a 20% tax on imported Mexican goods in order to recoup the cost of the wall.
	President Trump announced that he will publish a weekly list of crimes committed by immigrants.
	And he stripped federal funds from US cities that provide sanctuary for illegal immigrants.
	He also laid the legal groundwork for mass deportation.
	And that was week one.
	Well, of course, there's a lot of BS in there.
	No, there's tons of BS. That was my point.
	But my favorite one, my favorite BS is this block the CIA and other agencies from, or gag order, whatever he called it.
	What it was, to be honest about it, he said that EPA guys cannot, on government time, go tweeting stuff.
	Yeah.
	On government time.
	What's new about this?
	Is this a new thing?
	I thought when you work for any of these agencies, you're not supposed to sit all day on Facebook.
	Why don't you try working at, I don't know, pick a company, AT&T, and start tweeting about what AT&T is doing.
	You want to see how quickly you shut down?
	You got to do that in organizations.
	Yeah, it's bull crap.
	Well, anyway, so the CNN decided to make a big fuss over Trump's, the way it was described, and by the way, this happened, this was reported on Wednesday, even though it happened on Sunday, or Saturday, here on Sunday in Australia, so there was some sort of a leak that came out late, which makes me think, and before I play this, I think that the White House Oval Office is bugged.
	I think it's bugged.
	Well...
	Because there's all kinds of leaks coming out that don't make a lot of sense, and it also sounds like somebody's not actually there, they're just listening, unless they have a camera in there too, which is possible.
	You know what's actually kind of sad?
	I was sent an article yesterday by one of our military contacts, and the article talks specifically about, you know, that Trump went to Andrews Air Force Base for this kid who got killed, a serviceman.
	That was actually part of Trump's first raid in Yemen.
	There was some raid was taking place, and the assertion from this article is that the al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula there, the Yemen's, that they were tipped off that these guys were coming.
	So when you bring that up...
	Now, the Obama administration knew about this raid.
	I think it was one that they pre-planned, but this was Trump's first big one, and a kid gets killed.
	I'm sure some Taliban or some Yemen al-Qaeda guys got killed, but it was pretty much a heavy firefight, and that was the assertion within military circles is they were tipped off, so I don't know if that's part of what you're talking about.
	If I was Trump, I would have...
	Sweep that place.
	Sweep it.
	In separate incidents, I'd have the NSA come in and sweep the place.
	Doesn't he have a skiff?
	No.
	I would have the NSA sweep the place for especially some of these new modern bugs.
	And I'd also have the FBI come in afterwards and sweep the place again.
	I love bugs.
	And he...
	And so, because I think there's something that's going on, but here's the way CNN is portraying this incident.
	This is a little lengthy, but this is Trump and the Australian Prime Minister, CNN, won.
	This is one of our closest allies.
	Absolutely.
	I mean, that's what makes it really remarkable, I think, is that it's hard to think of an American ally who has been more...
	More steadfast, more reliable than Australia.
	Obviously Trump has had his issues with Mexico and other countries, but Australia has been there for the United States in the wars in Iraq, the war in Afghanistan, diplomatically, through intelligence sharing, through counter-terrorism missions.
	And so to have a blow up with the Australian Prime Minister in his very first call as Commander in Chief is quite significant.
	All right.
	Greg Miller of the Washington Post.
	Greg, thank you very much.
	I appreciate your reporting.
	I want to bring in now our White House correspondent here at CNN, Sarah Murray.
	Sarah, good evening to you.
	What are you hearing on this?
	What are you learning?
	Well, we're hearing a lot of things that are similar to what Greg just said, that this was a very tense call between Donald Trump and the Australian Prime Minister.
	We're also told that this was after a long day of Donald Trump sort of dipping his toe into diplomacy for the first time, that Turnbull was his fifth call.
	He may have been a little bit fatigued, but obviously he was very curt.
	He ended the call abruptly, and he took issue with this agreement about refugees that was settled under the Obama administration.
	It goes on.
	You know, what I thought was interesting, I know you have a second clip here, is the way it was presented, certainly on CNN, you even heard at the beginning of your clip there, let me just see, here it goes.
	It's one of our closest allies.
	One of our closest allies.
	Oh, it's one of, Australia's one of our closest allies.
	I thought maybe I'd just play our little medley of who our closest allies are from the Obama administration.
	It's fairly typical of the way that Danes have punched above their weight in international affairs.
	I've said this before, but I want to repeat.
	Norway punches above its weight.
	We have no stronger ally than the Netherlands.
	They consistently punch above their weight.
	Ireland punches above its weight.
	It's a small country.
	The Philippines is not the largest of countries.
	It, using a phrase from boxing, punches above its weight.
	We have no stronger ally than the Netherlands.
	We have no stronger ally than Australia.
	Poland is one of our closest and strongest allies.
	Great Britain is one of our closest, strongest allies.
	As I said earlier, Germany is one of our strongest allies.
	This state visit reflects the fact that the Republic of Korea is one of our strongest allies.
	Israel is one of our strongest allies.
	France is our oldest ally.
	And continues to be one of our closest allies.
	Italy is one of our strongest allies.
	Japan is, of course, one of our strongest and closest allies.
	There you go.
	Just setting the record straight so you know who our closest and strongest ally is.
	Yeah, and the ones who punch above their weight.
	That's my favorite.
	Alright, so let's listen.
	This is actually now the Prime Minister of Australia refusing to really talk about this, which is...
	I get the sense that he just sees it as gossip.
	But he refuses to confirm or deny anything.
	And he seems in a good mood.
	It's not as though...
	I can't imagine if you'd be in this good of a mood what CNN says, which is apparently Trump yelled at the guy and then slammed the phone down.
	I've seen that report, and I'm not going to comment on the conversation other than to say that in the course of the conversation, as you know, and as was confirmed by the president's official spokesman in the White House, The President assured me that he would continue with honour the agreement we entered into with the Obama administration with respect to refugee resettlement.
	Was President Trump upset with the parts of the conversation?
	Look, thanks for your inquiry, but I'm not going to comment on these reports out of the United States about the conversation.
	Not the details, Prime Minister, but I think the Australian public would be interested in your relationship with our most important partner.
	Did he hang up the phone to you earlier than you expected?
	I'm not going to comment on these reports of a conversation.
	Australians know me very well.
	I always stand up for Australia in every forum.
	Alright.
	Well, where's the controversy then?
	Well, the real question is because according to CNN and other reports, maybe WAPO, the fuss was over these three, there's like, I think it's 3,000 refugees that Australia's keeping in a camp on some island, and Obama agreed to take half of them, 1,500, and according to them, but Trump says, no, we're not taking any!
	And the Prime Minister says, yeah, we're going to take the ones we promised to take.
	So why don't...
	There's some things...
	We're not getting good reports.
	But I still think that the White House is bugged.
	Hmm.
	Well, that can be passed on.
	Should be passed on immediately.
	Dude needs a skiff.
	I love the skiff.
	You know, I've been holding on to this one because it was...
	Did you ever see the question and answer session between Theresa May and Donald Trump when the BBC journalist asked the question?
	I guess you haven't.
	That wouldn't be...
	I only listened to Prime Minister Question Time.
	That was on the BBC, I think.
	Theresa May, Prime Minister, visited the White House and they did a press briefing together.
	Just one question.
	Thank you very much, Prime Minister.
	Laura Kunzberg, BBC News.
	Prime Minister, you've talked about where you agree, but you have also said you would be frank where you disagree with the President.
	Can you tell us where in our talks you did disagree, and do you think that the President listened to what you had to say?
	And, Mr President, you say...
	We'll see what she says.
	Mr.
	President, you've said before that torture works.
	You've praised Russia.
	You've said you want to ban some Muslims from coming to America.
	You've suggested there should be punishment for abortion.
	For many people in Britain, those sound like alarming beliefs.
	What do you say to our viewers at home who are worried about some of your views and worried about you becoming the leader of the free world?
	This was your choice of a question.
	That was funny.
	I thought it was good.
	Finally, some humor, ladies and gentlemen.
	And let me give Trump props for one thing.
	He's the only guy, a politician who I've heard say torture, not when it comes to waterboarding, not enhanced interrogation techniques, just torture.
	Yeah, torture.
	Agree with it or not, at least he's calling it what it is.
	Now, I want to mention something, because it appeared on most of the shots of Trump in May, and I'm reminded of him and his germophobia.
	He's got a germ thing going on, like a lot of people.
	Well, why is he grabbing her hand?
	Because germophobics, generally speaking, don't like to hold people's hands or touch certain things.
	It turns out, according to one analyst, that he has a bigger fear...
	Of going up and down ramps, especially going down them.
	Ramps?
	Yes, and there's a ramp there, and you can see it clearly.
	You see him walking, and then he's coming down, and there's a ramp, a White House ramp.
	Yeah, ramps.
	There's a name for it.
	I don't know, don't have it off the top of my head, but there's a name for this phobia.
	But as soon as he starts down the ramp, they hold hands, and then when he gets to the bottom of the ramp, he taps her and lets her go.
	Here it is, climacophobia.
	Clamacophobia.
	Sounds like chlamydia, but it's clamacophobia.
	The fear of climbing, especially using stairs, but it can also be ramps, elevators.
	Clamacophobia.
	He has trouble with stairs, too.
	That's why he uses escalators and elevators.
	It's apparently no problem.
	That's an odd fear to have.
	I thought that was interesting.
	How did you find out about this?
	It was on one of the talk shows and there's some guy discussing it and I didn't clip it because I think it was a situation where I didn't have any way to clip it.
	That's odd.
	Yeah, that's very odd.
	I have one last clip, if you want, because it's Gay Ann.
	Oh, well, of course we love Gay Ann.
	Chichikhan.
	That's right, everybody.
	She is our top reporter from Russia Today, RT, the state-sponsored media.
	It's all propaganda, but we love her.
	All right, what you got for Chichikhan?
	She's going to do a little rundown on the U.S. Senate bickering with each other.
	I thought it was quite entertaining.
	What we've got to do is fight in Congress, fight in the courts, fight in the streets.
	It's getting hot and heavy in Washington, D.C., with accusations and insults flying in all directions.
	One battleground, Capitol Hill.
	I object to the senator disparaging a fellow member of the committee here in his absence.
	He personally went after me.
	He personally impugned my integrity.
	You didn't object then, did you?
	You can speak to it, but I think that...
	I saw this, and I'm glad you clipped it.
	Actually, it needs a little setup, I think.
	I don't think she set it up right.
	No, she didn't set it up right.
	This is Franken going berserk.
	I'm going to probably go back and get there.
	What was happening is he was bitching about Ted Cruz and all the other senators on this committee were like, well, that's no good.
	He's not here.
	You should do it to his face.
	You should do it to his face.
	It was very bizarre.
	It was very childish on both sides.
	You can speak to it, but I think that we'd be better off if we just let it go.
	The confirmation process of Trump's nominees for various top jobs has been as messy as you can imagine.
	I'm very disappointed in this type of crap.
	I'm into my guts.
	There's no excuse for it.
	Some of this is because they just don't like the president.
	I think they ought to stop posturing and acting like idiots.
	We are only one month into 2017, and today we have another closed rule, or as I call them now, Putin rules.
	It's your way or the highway.
	Whether one agrees with him or not, Trump's presidency has rattled the Washington establishment.
	Another flashpoint is between the White House and the media.
	We have seen so many lies and conspiracy theories repeated by the President of the United States.
	He has nothing but disdain for the rule of law and the Constitution.
	This is one of the most radical inaugural speeches we've ever heard.
	The disdain has been mutual.
	You know I have a running war with the media.
	They are among the most dishonest human beings on earth.
	Some members of the media were engaged in deliberately false reporting.
	CNN, you are fake news.
	This kind of dishonesty in the media, the challenging, the bringing about our nation together is making it more difficult.
	We have two parties in this country right now, pro-Trump and anti-Trump.
	And for the most part, the media are anti-Trump.
	It's that simple.
	It's not ideology.
	It's not platform.
	It is purely personal.
	What this president has done, he took a Twitter account, bypassed mainstream media.
	These news titans are now standing in the queue, waiting with the rest of us peasants to find out what's going on.
	I mean, he has just slapped...
	This group, because of, frankly, and I'm not saying this is true or warranted, but he's had it with them.
	Word is out that the White House decided not to send its representatives on to CNN shows.
	The fight is on, but the rules are unclear.
	In Washington, I'm going to check out.
	Ah, the gloves are off.
	Well, since you brought Al Franken in, I do have one final clip.
	Okay.
	We probably cannot expect Al Franken to vote positively for checking out any voter fraud in the United States.
	And this clip evidences why.
	There are anecdotes out there.
	There are examples of voter fraud, you know, 10, 15, 20 different votes here and there, in this case, as much as 1,000.
	But is there any example that you know of in which fraudulent voting, particularly with illegal immigrants, turned an election result?
	In 2008, Al Franken, after six months of court battles, was declared the victor in the Minnesota Senate race by 314 votes.
	After he was seated, it was discovered there were 1,200 felons who had illegally voted in that election.
	A survey was done by Fox News in Minneapolis going out and interviewing a whole bunch of those people.
	Ninety percent said they voted for Franken.
	It turned out Al Franken was the 60th vote, Paul, to pass Obamacare because the Democrats needed 60 votes since the Republicans were backing them to pass Obamacare.
	If Al Franken hadn't been seated, I think illegitimately, we wouldn't have Obamacare as we know it today.
	And there you have it.
	There you have it, ladies and gentlemen.
	All right.
	I'm tuckered out.
	I'm all tuckered out.
	I have the vapes.
	Okay.
	It's a good show.
	Well, we'll be able to speak about the Super Bowl on Sunday, so that's all good.
	We have the show before the show, right?
	The show, yeah, Super Bowl always runs late.
	It starts at like 3.
	We finish our show at noon-ish.
	Good.
	So plenty of time to take a shower after the show and then go watch the Super Bowl.
	I want to thank everybody once again for celebrating with us our 900th episode.
	It is truly epic that you're all on board and you're so willing to help.
	And today was a great showing.
