	Those boys are just going to get you into trouble the way they think.
	Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak.
	It's Thursday, May 7th, 2020.
	This is your award-winning Gitmo Nation Media assassination episode 1240.
	This is no agenda.
	Ready for my haircut and broadcasting live from Opportunity Zone 33 here in the frontier of Austin, Texas, capital of the drone star state.
	In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley, where I have the exact right amount of clips, I can explain why later.
	I'm John C. Dvorak.
	It's Crackpot and Buzzkill in the morning!
	Well, I know the feeling.
	When you wake up and everything's there and you're like, oh my god, I have the exact right amount of clips!
	Yeah.
	The last show...
	Now, we don't play everything, but we came to the party with almost 70 clips.
	Yeah, we came with too many.
	That's quite a lot of clips, yes.
	Do you want to expand on why it's just the right amount, or will that come later?
	Yeah, my newest process is I take the clips and I print them on a sheet on the left-hand side, landscape style.
	Oh, okay.
	And so that leaves a bunch of room on the page, usually half the sheet, for taking notes, writing down potential titles, things like that.
	Stuff, yeah.
	And when I folded the paper in half, it usually has the clips, or there's a lot of little white space over there.
	It's perfect.
	It's like when you fold it in half...
	To create a, you know, landscape piece of paper folded in half.
	The length and everything, it's just perfect.
	It fit on the sheet perfectly.
	So this is the exact right amount of clips.
	That is an interesting observation.
	I have something very similar.
	I have a window open, and it's the clip bin, and I toss my...
	So I have your clips in the morning.
	That's in a folder.
	It's closed.
	But then when that bin is filled to the bottom, before it starts to scroll...
	That's my sign that I have the ideal amount of clips.
	There you go.
	I'm sure everybody out there is fascinated by this.
	This has been Inside the Podcaster Studio, everybody, with Adam Curry and John Sleel DeVorek.
	So we're almost on our road to recovery here.
	Tomorrow, May 8th.
	In Texas.
	In Texas, yes.
	Tomorrow, May 8th, barbershops and hair salons may commence.
	Well, it's about time.
	Well, this threw everybody for a loop.
	Everybody needs a haircut.
	Oh, do I ever.
	Oh man, I look scraggly.
	Tina's complaining about her roots.
	Well, that's what women do, but I understand.
	So I immediately texted my hair gal.
	She's like, well, because this was Friday.
	Yeah, Friday.
	We've been totally blindsided by this.
	We don't know what to do.
	We're not ready.
	I think the hair industry was kind of kicked back like, alright, end of the month, whatever.
	I'm fine.
	I got my hair cut.
	I guess we should immediately talk about the haircut of the Chicago mayor.
	Which she did despite actually telling everybody that you shouldn't go to the hair salon.
	Here she is.
	The whole thing is kind of explained in this clip if you haven't heard it yet.
	Mayor Lightfoot facing criticism tonight after getting her hair done.
	A photo surfaced of the mayor with a hairdresser, but she appeared to ignore social distancing efforts.
	Standing right next to them for the picture.
	When asked about that photo today, this is what the mayor had to say.
	I'm the public face of this city.
	I'm on national media, and I'm out in the public eye.
	And, you know, I'm a person who, I take my personal hygiene very seriously.
	As I said, I felt like I needed to have a haircut.
	I'm not able to do that myself, and so I got a haircut.
	Do you want to talk more about that?
	Part of the criticism came from the fact that the mayor had called on people not to go out and get their hair done in one of her stay home, save lives PSA. So, that pissed people off, and I kind of liked how she takes her personal hygiene very seriously, and it's important to her.
	Isn't personal hygiene really involved with washing your hair as opposed to getting it cut?
	Well, maybe it was more than that for her.
	Did you use the word hygiene?
	Personal appearance is a little different.
	Yes.
	What's great, though, and all of this is in the show notes.
	The video's in there as well.
	And it's nashownotes.com.
	What's great to watch is when she's saying that, the woman who was signing next to her is making these horrible faces.
	So you know how they really do a lot of the expression when they're signing.
	Yeah.
	And they mimic some of the words.
	And she actually was looking at the mayor going like, grimacing her face like, I'm important.
	It's something that has to be seen.
	It's very, very funny once you take your attention off Lightfoot herself.
	So in Texas, Governor Abbott said, okay, these are the broad announcements.
	May 8th, hair salons, barbershops, I think nail salons as well.
	On the 18th, gyms, other types of athletic places, and I think on the 18th, then restaurants can go to 50%.
	So that's moving along.
	But oh no, we can't have that with our Mayor Adler here in Austin.
	No, no, no.
	Oh no, this is wrong.
	You know, it's a Way too early, of course.
	How can we go back to Abbott?
	And Abbott specifically said, this supersedes everything.
	But everybody here in Austin wants to have masks on outside.
	It's 99 degrees.
	I'm barely surviving, let alone some coronavirus in the air.
	It's not happening.
	So, Adler, well, since he can't fine you, he'll guilt you into wearing a mask.
	Clear this up for me.
	Are we still required to wear the masks in Austin, or did the governor's order supersede that?
	Well, the governor's order said that we weren't allowed to have a penalty of a civil or criminal penalty associated with not wearing masks.
	But yet he recommended we wear masks.
	The lieutenant governor recommended we wear masks.
	Every public health official that I talked to says people should wear masks.
	So in Austin, in the city, I'm going to keep it mandatory.
	Now the penalty for not wearing a mask is that more people are going to get infected and some people are going to die.
	So the penalty is different now.
	I'm hoping that people will take this particular penalty very seriously.
	We should all still be wearing masks.
	Yeah.
	You got me into two clips I got to play.
	I wasn't meaning to play them right away, but I'm going to play them.
	Okay.
	Both about masks.
	Uh-huh.
	Let's start with Trump in Arizona.
	No mask, democracy now, big deal.
	It's a reopening of our country.
	Who would have ever thought we were going to be saying that?
	A reopening, reopening.
	President Trump made the remarks during a trip to Arizona, where he toured a Honeywell aerospace plant that's now producing N95 face masks.
	Trump wore safety glasses but no mask during the tour, ignoring a sign in the factory ordering everyone inside to wear facial covering.
	As a Honeywell executive showed President Trump N95 masks, loudspeakers blared a cover of the song Live and Let Die by the band Guns N' Roses.
	This is the material.
	Wow, they stoop to this level.
	This is like face bag level reporting.
	Oh, my God.
	Trump also wore no mask during a roundtable discussion Tuesday with Native American leaders at the meeting.
	Trump promised to send a half billion dollars to the Navajo Nation, which has been devastated by COVID-19.
	More than a month after Trump signed the CARES Act into law, tribes still haven't received some eight billion dollars in promise relief funds.
	Okay, so that leads me to this clip.
	Wait, wait, can I just make a quick observation about this?
	Sure.
	That is Trump's tape, that's the one he plays at the rallies, that's the one with Tiny Dancer, that's the one with, and in fact, right after he was done at the plant, they play the can't always get what you want, and it's not Guns N' Roses, it's Wings.
	Shut up, Amy.
	Amy, Amy.
	We got Amy.
	So this came up and this caught my attention and brought me back to the clip we just played.
	This is Kaylee, our new press secretary.
	Yes, this is good.
	She's great, by the way.
	She is now.
	She's real mean.
	She's a mean girl.
	I had my doubts about Kaylee McEnany.
	I'm like, she's going to get eaten alive.
	She comes out with just tons of makeup and hair all, I mean, really hammered on thick.
	Because she's Changes her entire appearance.
	It really does.
	She looks entirely different.
	And then, yeah, I thought this was a great mic drop moment.
	I was impressed.
	This isn't the ending one.
	This is the one on masks.
	Oh, the masks one.
	I haven't heard the masks one.
	Okay, what do we got?
	This is Kaylee on the politics of masks.
	Now, she doesn't really answer this question, but it brought up an interesting point, which relates to the fact that Austin's all bent out of shape.
	Amy's all bent out of shape.
	And the question is, we do have to discuss this.
	I'm sure you've seen in a number of polls, there's a huge difference between Democrats and Republicans over whether or not they think it's necessary to wear a mask in public.
	Do you have any sense as to why that would be?
	No sense as to why that would be.
	That's the choice of the American public.
	It's the choice of the individual as to whether to wear a mask or not.
	But again, I praise the extraordinary work of this administration in distributing those masks and ensuring health care providers get them.
	Okay.
	So she doesn't answer the question, but this guy did bring up the point.
	And this point is reflected in all the clips you're going to get.
	The Democrats, oh, we got to wear a mask.
	We got to wear a mask.
	We're told to wear a mask.
	We have to wear a mask.
	We're going to kill each other.
	We're all going to die if we don't wear a mask.
	Yeah.
	The Republicans are, hey, I wear a mask if there's somebody around and they don't, I have to wear a mask.
	I wear a mask if I have to wear a mask.
	I'm not going to wear a mask if I don't have to wear a mask.
	I'm not going to wear a mask when I'm walking down the street.
	And it's a political thing, so this whole thing has become politicized, and the mask is kind of the symbol.
	Well, it was ventilators before that.
	Now it's gone to the next level.
	And I think I know why, but I'm interested to hear your further thoughts.
	I don't really have any serious thoughts, but I do know that I have a basic thought.
	I think the Democrats, the liberals in Canada would be a good example.
	They're more compliant.
	They're rule followers.
	They can't think for themselves oftentimes.
	I mean, I hate to say it, but it just seems to be the case.
	And they're virtue signaling.
	And the virtue signaling is a big part of it.
	Oh, we've got a mask on.
	Look at me.
	I've got a mask on.
	And people say, oh, you don't have a mask on.
	You should have a mask on.
	They like to lecture people.
	Yes.
	Go ahead.
	I don't have anything deeper than that.
	It's kind of a shallow analysis.
	Oh, no.
	It's very obvious.
	Besides the virtue signal, which in fact shows other people that you have the same irrational thinking at this moment, if it's outside.
	Now, if someone has a business and they want me to wear a mask in their business, fine.
	I really don't care if I want to get something.
	If not, if I don't want to do business with them, I won't.
	But outside, no.
	You're not going to shame me into any of this.
	But the reason for it is also...
	The symbolism of a muzzle.
	Shut up, slave.
	It's a muzzle.
	Yes!
	I like it.
	And that's why people who are mad about the whole thing really refuse to wear it.
	I think subconsciously we're like, no, I'm not going to be muzzled by this.
	That's a good, I like this a lot.
	Thank you.
	Now I will say that Mimi has a mask that she had made, I think Jay made it for, which goes over the nose and mouth, and this is a regular mask, one of the cloth masks, but it's painted.
	And I recommend people try this.
	I mean, we do have some masks you can just buy from the New Agenda shop.
	Is she sniffing the paint?
	Is she breathing through the toxic fumes?
	No, it's just paint.
	It's got a big red nose and a stupid-looking clown smile and two big giant teeth hanging out of it.
	So it's the stupidest-looking thing you've ever done.
	I'll have to take a picture and put it in the newsletter.
	I'll wear it.
	She won't wear it.
	She's embarrassed by it.
	But I'd wear it.
	And it's very funny and it just ridicules the whole situation.
	I'm biased now because I think of it really as a muzzle.
	There's so much that goes along with the mask.
	I When people come in an opposite direction for me, but also in Texas, I smile.
	You know, now all you got to work with is your eyes, and I got a really bad eye today, so people would all just see was a mask and a pussy right eye, and they'd freak out.
	But...
	You should have some blood painted on your neck like it's dripping.
	I saw a commercial yesterday from Dole.
	No sense to clip it because it's only text on the screen.
	Masks are worn by superheroes.
	And they show, of course, first responders and nurses and doctors.
	There's another part to it, perhaps.
	And it's purely about the response.
	And NBC, of all, of all, they published a poll of which country scores best with their citizens as it pertains to their response to the coronavirus outbreak.
	And if you look at the list, remember NBC, who do you think is the number one country with coronavirus response ranking according to, well, this global survey?
	NBC would probably pick China.
	Yep, 86.
	Vietnam was 77.
	Then we get UAE, India, Malaysia, New Zealand, Taiwan, Philippines, Indonesia, Singapore, South America, Australia, Germany.
	Then we get the United States.
	Where's Sweden on the list?
	Sweden is, of course, not on the list.
	Oh, well, that's interesting, isn't it?
	That brings up something else, and I do want to get back to the opening up stuff.
	You remember Apple released their data of how many times people requested directions on the Apple Maps app, which a lot of people emailed me saying, hey man, just because they're publishing that doesn't mean they're tracking it.
	It's not your personal information.
	It doesn't matter.
	The promise was you share nothing.
	You're sharing me touching my screen.
	I don't like that.
	But anyway, they publish this data.
	So I go and look, and you can see it's really about mobility.
	So I guess they say if you ask for directions you were going to travel, they claim they didn't track that part in these numbers.
	And you see everybody has an L. It's the famous L. Drops down, goes, and at the end it starts to tail up a little bit.
	And you can drill down by country.
	Like in the United States, you can drill down by state.
	Go to Sweden, there's an L. It's not true that they didn't do anything.
	They definitely had a significant minus 50% in transit activity.
	They weren't locked up at home though.
	That's what makes it different.
	And people did it, and I know a lot of companies did that.
	So, you know, we're not out of the woods on if this was a good idea or not.
	Particularly now that New York has seen 60% of all transmissions occurred where?
	In the home.
	People at home giving each other coronavirus.
	So it might not have been such a good idea.
	Anyway, there's a reason why...
	And it's gone full-on political, so I'm not too worried about coronavirus anymore.
	I mean, yes, people will still die.
	We're doing a lot of testing, so you see lots of positives.
	We have no idea if people are being marked up as truly dead from COVID-19 or not.
	It doesn't matter.
	Everything's politicized now, so there's clearly...
	No one else in Washington, certainly, is worried about it.
	But...
	We have all these things coming out now.
	All of a sudden, we have a report that wasn't a report.
	It was a draft created inside the...
	I have it here.
	It was the Harvard Public Health School...
	Harvard Bloomberg Public School...
	No, I'm saying it wrong.
	There we go.
	Johns Hopkins Bloomberg...
	School of Public Health.
	The same guys who did Event 201.
	Somehow, some internal document from one guy who himself says in the Washington Post, he has no idea how that draft model, which was not by any means done or ready for publication or even the model wasn't completed, how that got leaked to the Washington Post.
	He doesn't understand.
	Is this the mutant strain memo?
	No, no, this is the model that Johns Hopkins Bloomberg leaks to the Washington Post that says the true deaths will be 200,000 in the United States by the end of June.
	So everyone started freaking out, and that's all it was Monday, and everyone's going nuts, and like, oh, we can't open up and stop protesting, and Jake Tapper does, I mean, leading the witness.
	He has Michigan Governor Whitmer, who of course had huge protests.
	She's very unpopular.
	She's been doing kind of crazy things, telling people they can't buy certain things in stores, has to be roped off.
	It's nuts.
	So Jake Tapper wants her to describe the citizens who came to protest outside of, I guess, the state capitol or the governor's mansion.
	But listen to how he frames the question.
	It's disgusting.
	These protests came after President Trump tweeted, liberate Michigan.
	He tweeted, quote, the governor of Michigan should give a little, put out the fire.
	He said that these are very good people about the protesters that were featured in the video, to which the executive director of the Jewish Democratic Council of America, Haley Sofer, who is from Lansing, Michigan, She compared those comments to President Trump referring to those marching alongside neo-Nazis in Charlottesville as very fine people.
	Is that how you see these protesters?
	In that vein?
	In that extreme?
	Can you believe that question?
	That guy is the douchiest question you could possibly ask.
	And here's her answer.
	And he knows that that very fine people thing relating it to Charlotte is just pathetic.
	Oh, this is exactly what he was going for.
	...as very fine people.
	Is that how you see these protesters in that?
	Is that?
	Don't tell me just, is that?
	Isn't that?
	Come on.
	Come on, Whitmer.
	Isn't that how you see these people?
	Don't you think it's the same kind of nonsense?
	...vain and that extreme?
	Well, some of the outrageousness of what happened at our Capitol this week depicted some of the worst racism and awful parts of our history in this country.
	The Confederate flags and nooses, the swastikas.
	The behavior that you've seen in all of the clips is not representative of who we are in Michigan.
	It's not who we are!
	No, I didn't see any nooses and swastikas.
	Please show me evidence of this.
	It's horrible.
	It's just horrible.
	If there was any swastikas, it would have been a reference to her.
	Exactly.
	No, seriously.
	Yes, I know, but this is exactly what the Nazis did.
	They locked everybody up, took away their livelihood, bankrupted the small businesses.
	Maybe they're just using a couple of tactics, but bleh.
	So anyway, back to the Bogative report.
	It was so bad that Secretary of Human Health and Services Azar had to come on Fox and Friends, go into the friendly trenches to disclaim it, which I think he did a really poor job of.
	Yeah, Mr.
	Secretary, the other question, obviously, this morning, many Americans are waking up and wondering about is, are these various news reports suggesting there's at least a draft report from CDC, FEMA officials, and others predicting that you and others in the White House administration have to prepare For the possibility of up to 200,000 deaths of Americans by June 1st.
	There's going to be 3,000 deaths a day.
	It's going to be rising.
	Is that true?
	Have you seen such a report?
	And if it's not true, what are you preparing for, sir?
	So I've not seen that report.
	I've heard about it, obviously.
	There are hundreds of models that are...
	It was in the Washington Post.
	I find that to be an insufficient answer.
	Oh, I haven't seen it yet.
	Dude, it was the front page of the Washington Post.
	Bad answer.
	So I've not seen that.
	I think he was referring to it.
	He hasn't seen it literally have the report in his hands.
	I know, but it comes across as weak.
	You know, it didn't bother you that much?
	I heard it the way he meant it.
	I didn't hear anything negative about that.
	Don't let him finish.
	So I've not seen that report.
	I've heard about it, obviously.
	There are hundreds of models that are drafted up to look at various contingencies out in the private public health world.
	As well as within our agencies, this apparently is a draft modeling report of various contingencies prepared by Johns Hopkins.
	This was not reviewed by the White House or senior leadership or the task force.
	The President's recommendations on reopening the American economy are based on the soundest scientific evidence and modeling and forecasting, not draft initial projections that just are floating out there.
	See, the problem I have with this is that I don't understand how any citizen...
	This is probably the same around the world with these experts and the leaders of these different departments...
	It's very difficult for me to follow what the numbers are and what the model is.
	And it's okay if you change it, but stick to one and say, don't tell me there's all kinds of models floating out there that we may pick from this one or that one.
	I don't want to hear that.
	What are the numbers?
	Why does CDC have different COVID-19 deaths versus the so-called 67,000?
	I don't even know where to find those numbers anymore.
	That chart has just been given away.
	It's bullcrap.
	You're all full of crap when it comes to these models.
	No.
	I was going to say, to add insult to this, Neil Ferguson, the man behind the original We're All Gonna Die 2 Million Deaths in America model, the man responsible for millions of cattle being killed, Unnecessarily killed during hooves and mouth disease, who was wrong every single time by a factor 10 on all of the crises, but still we used his model.
	Neil Ferguson resigned from the advisory group because he broke the lockdown rules in the UK. Because he knows it's bullcrap!
	It's unbelievable!
	You know why he broke the lockdown rules, right?
	Yeah, because he had a date with his Tinder girlfriend.
	I know!
	That's very British, of course.
	If it's a scandal, it's always about his penis.
	Oh, we're good at that here, too.
	But what's nicer, the work that has been done independently, is a code review of Ferguson's model.
	As you recall, this model, the 2 million model, later revised to 200,000, to 80,000, to 60,000, now apparently revised back up who knows what.
	It was created using 13-year-old undocumented code.
	So the Lockdown Skeptics, which is a group you can find at, I think it's LockdownSkeptics.org, they did a code review, a professional code review, Of what they could, and this is such a piece of crap.
	They can't even run it on a multi-core processor.
	You have to run it in single-thread mode.
	Otherwise, it doesn't work.
	With the same inputs, outputs are not repeatable or reproducible.
	No regression testing after changes.
	The whole thing makes no sense.
	It's very poorly developed, and you can read it for yourself.
	I mean, anything I say will go too deep for most, and I'll just sound foolish.
	But these guys seem like they're pretty pro.
	And then the one thing I can do is I can look up a word.
	It says, because this group went back and forth with the Imperial College reviewing the software, and they said, well, you know, it's really intended to often provide very stochastic results.
	I'm like, what is stochastic?
	Have you heard of the word stochastic?
	Yeah, it's used all the time in computer science.
	Randomly determined.
	So the results are randomly determined.
	They say it right in black and white.
	You have to remember Bill Gates is behind this.
	He makes it funny.
	I'm not quite sure what it means, but okay.
	Mr.
	Coder.
	Luckily...
	Dr.
	Drew is still on the scene.
	We know he is on Fauci's Fear Squad, but he still has his own opinion, and one of our producers hands over three short clips worth listening to.
	The first one regards outdoor transmission of the virus.
	Dr.
	Drew.
	Research has shown there's been only one documented case, and that was in China, of outdoor transmission.
	All other cases have been indoor transmission, which is interesting.
	There's also good evidence that the virus dies very quickly out in sunlight.
	So outdoor looks like a safe place for us to be, but we shouldn't be outdoors without masks, and we shouldn't be outdoors shoulder to shoulder.
	So that seems stupid to be doing that.
	That seems silly to me.
	Uh-huh.
	Thank you very much.
	Masks outdoors, everybody!
	Don't walk shoulder to shoulder!
	Tell us about shutting down, Drew.
	What kind of experience do you have with that?
	What is this all based on?
	Does it really work?
	Is it the way to go?
	I mean, it seems like everyone got infected at home.
	The idea of shutting everybody down is a new idea that was developed in the 2006 Bush administration provisional plan on pandemics based on a high school student's science project.
	So the idea that this is the way to go, shutting everything down...
	Is not true.
	It's not scientifically true.
	It may be superior, but we don't know yet.
	So it may just be that when we go back to masks and social distancing in the world, there will be no uptick in the cases.
	So this idea of a second wave may never happen.
	Now, we will have some upticks, some little outbreaks, but the idea will be to isolate and contain those outbreaks.
	Okay.
	There you go.
	Never been proven, never been tested.
	I'm kind of interested, you know, as we move into the next phase of tracking and tracing, we're supposed to learn things from that.
	And I have not seen one report about South Korea.
	If they've learned anything, I would have expected some kind of information coming back by now.
	But we continue with Dr.
	Drew, final clip here about social distancing.
	Everyone's nervous.
	Because people are beginning to pile out of their isolation.
	But you've got to remember, we don't know that isolation is superior to social distancing.
	We don't know that.
	Now, isolation is certainly superior to nothing, but they've never studied the difference between social distancing and masks, done properly, and quarantine.
	Never been done.
	So we will find out soon enough.
	Well, I want to go back to what you were talking about with these models.
	Okay.
	There seems to be a...
	I don't know when it changed or how it changed, and I have a sense it has something to do with the way they're going to keep us on the global warming tract.
	Yeah, well, that's got to come, but we have to keep all focus on impeaching Trump with his response.
	Well, yeah, Trump's more important to get impeached.
	Yes, of course.
	But if you remember, the last, I think it's probably the last three or maybe even the last four or five hurricanes, when they show the predictions nowadays, they don't just show a prediction.
	They used to always do that.
	The news guys, the weather guy, here's what's predicted to do.
	No.
	Now they show about 30 tracks.
	And they show them on the screen, on the weather screen.
	They say, it could do this.
	It could do that.
	It could do this.
	MIT says it's going to do that.
	The Western Alliance of Weathercasters say it's going to do this.
	And they have all these different companies doing all these.
	That's the one where Trump took one of the things.
	It's going to hit Atlanta.
	Right.
	If you remember that.
	That was based on one of the models.
	That was the Sharpie model.
	And so they have all these models now.
	And they're squirreling around all over the map.
	There's a couple of things that says to me.
	One is that this has changed.
	We've never seen anything like this before.
	And they could have been doing this for a long time, but they haven't.
	They just started recently.
	It's because, and I think global warming's got something to do with it, because there's a lot of models, and nobody wants to talk about the Russian model, which we've talked about a number of times, which seems to be tracking a very mild increase in temperatures, and it's got nothing to do with much of anything.
	But they're getting to the point where they're going to do this because now there's no responsibility.
	Right.
	Well, that was one of the models.
	Yeah.
	Well, that was one of the models.
	Yeah, well, there was 30 models, and this is the one that happened.
	The model that always works is the least complex one.
	It's the simple one.
	But it's just resolving themselves of any responsibility.
	Oh, models, models.
	Well, along with social distancing has come something new, which is also accepted, and that's social censorship.
	And I just coined that myself.
	I don't know if anyone ever thought of it, but that's really what we're witnessing, where there is a social agreement, apparently, that certain types of information should be censored, because it's very dangerous in our current climate, because we need to listen to the experts with their multiple models.
	This is why David Icke has been completely removed over an interview.
	I've watched it.
	I've watched all of his interviews, I think.
	I have clips from it.
	Well, let's go through that.
	And I'll just preface this by saying...
	What Google and YouTube and I think Spotify?
	Spotify!
	Remove the David Icke podcast.
	Oh, boo-hoo.
	Thank God we made that shit open, people.
	You really think you can silence people by kicking them off Spotify?
	And it looks really dumb, Spotify.
	But they're all making the AOL mistake.
	America Online was safe.
	You're safe with us.
	Well, we'll give you this little window with a crappy browser to that scary internet, but you really don't want to go there.
	Stay with us.
	Use a keyword.
	That's what they're trying to do, is trying to keep people safe, and it doesn't work.
	People want to go out.
	They want to find out crazy stuff.
	They need alternative information, so they're going to leave these platforms.
	Anyway, social censorship, that's in full play.
	I like your little theory there.
	In fact, that may even be a show title.
	I'll flip over this perfectly folded sheet and write it down.
	Ah, it's the show notes side of the page.
	Lovely.
	Lovely.
	Now, Ike talks about Let's go over some of this.
	I only have the 5G thing that's interesting, but then I have another clip.
	I only have two clips, so we're not going to bore people with David Icke.
	But David Icke's whole thing, it goes on and on for about an hour about everything we talked about on this show.
	Yeah, pretty much.
	And it's nothing new or even, I mean, it's interesting on the show, but we talked about it on the show months ago.
	And so it's kind of like, oh, well, geez, David, where have you been?
	Have you ever listened to No Agenda?
	And then he does this little crazy stuff with this 5G. Now, the 5G thing is also misinterpreted.
	He never says, everyone, because there was something that went around about 5G is going to trigger the corona.
	It's out there, and then the 5G hits and you get it.
	He's saying that 5G is going to make people sick.
	And Corona, coincidentally, can be used as the excuse, oh, they're sick because of Corona, not because of 5G. But I'll play this clip.
	This is David Icke of Calm Story 5G. A government censor called Ofcom, Office of Communications, which is the regulator of British broadcasters.
	They have said...
	And it's run by a lady called Melanie Dawes.
	We need to note these names down, ladies and gentlemen.
	And when we're through this, at some level through it, these people have to be called to account.
	We have a situation where this lady and her organisation, which is a government department, has told British broadcasters, and of course they've complied, spinelessly as usual, that they will face serious sanctions if they allow any discussion on their television stations and radio stations.
	About any connection between 5G and so-called COVID-19.
	The British government, through this other idiot, the health secretary, Matt Hancock...
	You know, people are sitting there all over the houses.
	66 million people in this country.
	Oh, yeah, sitting in me house and doing as I'm told.
	Because this guy, you wouldn't let run a Lego house...
	Hancock is saying that everyone must do that.
	I mean, what are we doing?
	Anyway, people like him are now saying to the giants of Silicon Valley, your Zuckerbergs at Facebook, your Brins and Pages at Google, and your Wachowskis at Google-owned YouTube, etc., That they should ban people who are making a connection between 5G and this COVID-19 crisis.
	So, that tells you, one, they couldn't care less about freedom and the right to free debate.
	Thus, they have no right to be in government and no right to be running a broadcast regulator.
	But it tells you something else.
	Number two.
	It tells you there is a link between 5G and this health crisis.
	There's only one reason they don't want it discussed.
	Because there is a link.
	And who's been promoting 5G and the rollout of 5G? Who runs the licenses for 5G? Ofcom.
	Same woman.
	In a different interview, he went a little bit more in-depth, and I looked up the studies and what he claims, and the claim is correct.
	I don't know if it is true for 5G, depending on the frequencies, power, etc., but indeed, effects of electromagnetic field exposure can create oxidative stress and antioxidant defense system issues.
	Yeah, he talked about it in this one, too.
	Oh, it's in this one.
	And it's completely valid.
	And the thing with these theories, which is always, with Ike, it's always the case.
	If you listen to what doctors are saying, people are turning blue.
	It's like they're not getting enough oxygen.
	I think we had a clip of that ER doctor in New York who said, to me it looked like someone was at 20,000 feet without oxygen and they were just literally dying because of a lack of oxygen in their lungs and in their blood.
	And so that could be, absolutely, if someone's immune system is compromised and there's a 5G tower next door, possibly, I don't know.
	But it certainly, I don't think he ever said coronavirus is caused by 5G, but it doesn't matter.
	No, he never says that.
	It doesn't matter.
	It's social censorship.
	If it deviates at all, it must be eliminated.
	Yes, I'm all...
	This is why our show exists.
	Yes, of course.
	So let's play the other one, which is D-V-I-D. Sorry.
	This is an interesting clip because it gives me an anecdote I can...
	Talk about this.
	David Icke Tower is going up.
	While this lockdown has been going on, I know from communications to to me and Gaz and Jamie at David Icke dot com.
	I know from all the postings on the Internet, not just in Britain, but around the world in America.
	But while this lockdown has been going on, 5G masts are being rolled out at a very rapid rate.
	In the same period of this lockdown, something like another 21,000 cities have been opened in Britain to 5G. 5G is being...
	Rolled out all over the world at a very great rate of knots.
	This is a time where everything is supposed to be stopped.
	Yeah.
	And they're still building towers overnight.
	Yes.
	Because that's considered essential work.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Okay, so...
	I saw one go up here, like five minutes from our house.
	I was like, well, that's new.
	Well, Mimi drove down from Washington last...
	I guess Monday or maybe last Friday.
	I'm not one of these days.
	She's been going back and forth a while.
	She's been around.
	Because of traffic.
	There's no traffic.
	You can go back and forth.
	So she comes down this last time and she says, holy crap, all I saw coming down were people putting up 5G towers.
	Yeah.
	All along Highway U.S. Interstate 5.
	Yeah.
	Well, and, you know, when you think about it, and they are, of course, essential personnel.
	This is infrastructure.
	It's a great time for them to do anything.
	What they should be doing is fixing the potholes.
	That's what I've been waiting for.
	Oh, yeah.
	No pothole fixing whatsoever.
	See, that would have endeared the community.
	But no.
	But no, but no, but no.
	So, Ike effectively really deplatformed.
	And you're right.
	That's why our show is here.
	And we're completely independent.
	And thank God we don't have to rely on a YouTube or anything else like that.
	And I've got to say, BitChute, all these different alternative video sites, they're winning with this.
	They're gaining.
	We'll see if this is a good strategy for them, but I think that when you...
	It's one thing to have your people, you know, to socially censor content on your platforms when people are running their regular lives, but when they're at home all day, you know, they start to wander.
	They're not entirely your slaves anymore.
	They're thinking for themselves maybe a little bit.
	Or not.
	Or not.
	But the point is you can't start taking this stuff down.
	I mean, it's going to hurt YouTube in the long term.
	Of course, you can't get advertisers anyway.
	But if the Russian car cam videos move to a separate platform, boom, it's done.
	It's all over.
	And once the cats are gone, after that, the cats leave.
	Once the cats leave, then you've got no platform left.
	Cats and car crashes, that's the end.
	Funny moment in West Virginia, although it's kind of a blue dress, silver dress moment, the governor of West Virginia accused of an expletive.
	Again, I encourage all businesses that are allowed to open to do so only if they can follow the guidelines to keep West Virginia safe.
	Now, he claims he didn't use an expletive.
	Today at our news briefing, there was an audio glitch.
	And it sounded like that I had said a bad word.
	A word that I would never say, nor have I ever said.
	No possibility in any way, shape, form, or fashion.
	Okay.
	Bull crap.
	Bull crap.
	But there is a glitch, and you're allowed to say that when it comes to audio.
	There is an actual glitch in that, but it's after the F word.
	And I can't make anything else out of it.
	I don't know what was he saying if it wasn't that.
	We'll listen to it one more time.
	Again, I encourage all businesses that are allowed to open to do so only if they can follow the guidelines to keep West Virginia safe.
	I don't know.
	At least it gave us another five minutes of entertainment.
	Well, you know, this denial, he should just apologize for saying it.
	I think so, too.
	It just slipped out.
	I mean, this is the kind of thing I got, yeah.
	Yeah.
	Let's move over to pharmaceutical stuff.
	And the president did a, it was a virtual town hall at the Lincoln Memorial.
	This was a Fox exclusive.
	Very interesting setting.
	I'm not quite sure.
	I was like, what are you trying to say here?
	Hmm, I wonder.
	Trump-Lincoln.
	Are you trying to connect something here in my brain?
	And he took questions.
	And he also took questions from Martha and from Brett.
	And the question came up about the pharmaceutical companies and the need for them to be really, you know, we need our medications, our essential medications created in the United States, maybe not in China or other countries.
	And so it was kind of a two-parter.
	And the second part, I think she rattles the president a bit.
	Here's part one.
	There's a lot of people who say, why you talk about making it here in America?
	Why are all of the antibiotics made in China?
	Can you give me a date by which we will be self-sufficient in antibiotics in this country?
	And what kind of incentive would you give manufacturers of pharmaceuticals to make sure that we are not dependent on China anymore for this?
	So the reason it took place is because other people that sat in this chair, maybe not right here, but this is a beautiful place, because they were foolish.
	You could even say because they were stupid, because they allowed this to happen.
	And it's not only China.
	You take a look at Ireland.
	They make our drugs.
	Everybody makes our drugs except us.
	And we've already done it.
	We're coming out with things, numbers.
	You're seeing numbers of innovations that we've made in the past, and things are being announced already.
	But we're bringing that whole supply chain back.
	Nobody has to tell me to do it.
	I've been talking about that for years.
	Now, the one that you see, you don't see it.
	You see it with cars.
	You see it with other things.
	People never looked at medicine.
	But it's always been about medicine because we have at least 94, 95 percent of our medicines are made.
	It's important to do the vaccine here.
	Well, it's an incredible thing.
	They're American companies.
	Well, I'd like to be able to do it here.
	I don't want to do it in China.
	Don't want the vaccine in China, that's for sure.
	But then Martha follows up, and I want you to give me your impression after you listen to the clip, whether this was a setup, whether he knew it was coming, if he turned it around and turned it into something to his advantage.
	I think we need to talk through it because she presses him and she uses something, and that's why I'm suspicious of the question.
	Well, when will we get to that 95% everything made here?
	And he seemed rattled.
	When will we get that 94% of antibiotics made in this country?
	Do you have a target date for that?
	I think we will have it done within two years.
	You know, it doesn't go that quickly.
	And frankly, you put me in a very bad negotiating position by asking me this question.
	You know, we're talking about this.
	Now I'm supposed to call up my guys.
	I mean, you put me in a very bad negotiating position, and I'm not blaming you.
	That's your job.
	You're taking my cards away, because I don't want to be talking this way.
	I've done a lot, but it gets exposed when you answer.
	I assume the show is a big show, right?
	It's going to do very well tonight.
	But you do take away a lot of my cards when you're answering, asking me a question like that.
	You understand that?
	Yes.
	Here's the bottom line.
	I met with a drug company six months ago.
	I said, you're going to start making the drugs here.
	You're going to start making them here.
	And they do it for two reasons.
	A cost reason, but it's no longer so much cost because we can do things here for the same price and in some cases less.
	And then you don't have the transportation problems.
	We're taking care of our look.
	Another reason I got elected and some people don't like the sound of it and other countries don't like it.
	It's called America First.
	And we're all about America First.
	That's what we're about.
	He was protesting a bit much, I felt.
	He's got to tell.
	Which is the term that we're always ridiculing people for doing.
	He doesn't normally do it, but when he does it, I believe this is...
	When he says, look?
	Yeah, exactly.
	So he said, look, I met with the pharma guy six months ago, so I've been telling them you've got to bring it back, and I'm sure that, you know, similar to what has happened in the past, they're waiting for something to sweeten the deal.
	Yeah, I think he protests too much.
	I think maybe the whole thing was part of his negotiating tactic.
	Could be.
	I haven't figured it out, but could be.
	Because he said, oh no, you're going to ruin my negotiating position.
	Oh, stop, stop, stop hitting me.
	That's what I felt, too.
	Like, that sounds kind of bull.
	Yeah, that sounds kind of like bull.
	I only have one other question from this, but it's a good one and his answer was very complete.
	And this comes on the heels of...
	At least the knowledge being out there, according to The Spectator in Australia, that there is a Five Eyes intelligence report.
	So that's the UK, the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
	Australia has, and there's 15 pages floating out and about, that say, you know, hey, the Chinese are really responsible for this, and we don't know exactly how much is true or how deep it goes.
	But Trump has a very outspoken opinion on this, and he got a question about it from some dude who called in.
	It was a black guy, and he looked, and he sounds as stoned as he looked.
	Mr.
	President, I have a question for you.
	Is there enough evidence that China misled global community by this coronavirus?
	If it's so, how should global community respond?
	Yeah, bro.
	Well, I don't think there's any question about it.
	We wanted to go in.
	They didn't want us to go in early, very early.
	You'll see that because things are coming out that are pretty compelling now.
	So I don't think there's any question.
	Don't forget, China tried to blame it first on some of our soldiers.
	That turned out to not go too far.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	I do need to mention I've edited this clip in two spots because Trump, I've learned, speaks in what I call hanging chads.
	So, he'll be talking about something, then all of a sudden he drops down into a repetitive sentence about how he looks, oh, and I closed it up on time, and they told me not to, and then he comes back to the story.
	This is like one of his rallies.
	Yeah, so it's a hanging Chad thing, so I just snipped it off.
	And I really got very upset with that.
	That was not right.
	China tried to blame Europe for this.
	You told John Roberts the other day that you saw evidence that gave you a high confidence that the virus came from the Wuhan lab.
	Not that it was created there, perhaps, but that it came from there.
	Can you illuminate any more about that?
	Yeah, we're going to be given a very strong report as to exactly what we think happened.
	And I think it'll be very conclusive.
	Is there any suggestion that it was anything nefarious or that it was just a mistake?
	So, I think they made, personally, I think they made a horrible mistake.
	And they didn't want to admit it.
	We wanted to go in.
	They didn't want us there.
	Even World Health wanted to go in.
	They were admitted, but much later.
	You know, not immediately.
	And my opinion is they made a mistake.
	They tried to cover it.
	They tried to put it out.
	It's like a fire.
	You know, it's really like trying to put out a fire.
	They couldn't put out the fire.
	What they really treated the world badly on, they stopped...
	People going into China, but they didn't stop people going into the USA and all over the world.
	So you could fly out of Wuhan, where the primary problem was, all of the problem essentially, also where the lab is, but you could fly out of Wuhan and you could go to different parts of the world, but you couldn't go to Beijing and you couldn't go to any place in China.
	So what's that all about?
	In other words, they knew they had a problem.
	I think they were embarrassed by the problem.
	Very embarrassed.
	And the case could be made.
	They said, hey, look, this is going to have a huge impact on China.
	But here's the thing.
	They allowed this to go into our country.
	They allowed it to go into other countries.
	Does it change how you feel about President Xi?
	Does it change your relationship with him?
	I'm not going to say anything.
	I had a very good relationship.
	He's a strong man.
	He's a tough man.
	And I have a very good relationship with him.
	But this should never have happened.
	This should never have happened.
	This virus should not have spread all over the world.
	They should have put it out.
	They should have let us and other people in other countries go in and put it out.
	Because people knew what was happening.
	So that is a pretty clear opinion, and a lot of people heard it and saw it.
	I think it was almost 4 million people who viewed that town hall, which was huge for Fox News on cable.
	I was very big for them.
	Yeah.
	Well, Pompeo made some comments about this, which took a very strange turn because it sounds like he was contradicting himself.
	And so I have this clip of him answering the Wuhan origin question, too, in a press conference.
	Have you seen anything that gives you high confidence that it originated in that Wuhan lab?
	Martha, there's enormous evidence that that's where this began.
	We've said from the beginning that this was a virus that originated in Wuhan, China.
	We took a lot of grief for that from the outset, but I think the whole world can see now.
	Remember, China has a history of infecting the world, and they have a history of running substandard laboratories.
	These are not the First times that we've had a world exposed to viruses as a result of failures in a Chinese lab.
	And so while the Intelligence Committee continues to do its work, they should continue to do that and verify so that we are certain.
	I can tell you that there is a significant amount of evidence that this came from that laboratory in Wuhan.
	Do you believe it was man-made or genetically modified?
	Look, the best experts so far seem to think it was man-made.
	I have no reason to disbelieve that at this point.
	Your office of the DNI says the scientific consensus was not man-made or genetically modified.
	That's right.
	I agree with that.
	I've seen their analysis.
	I've seen the summary that you saw that was released publicly.
	I have no reason to doubt that that is accurate at this point.
	Okay, so just to be clear, you do not think it was man-made or genetically modified?
	I've seen what the Intelligence Committee said.
	I have no reason to believe that they've got it wrong.
	You have to put this in context here.
	I think that there's confusion in the question and the answer, and when he's saying, when she's asking about if it was created, so it clearly wasn't synthetic.
	In his mind, I believe he's answering the question if it's a bioweapon.
	No.
	No?
	If you listen to this very carefully, at the very end, the very end of that clip, he says you've got to take this in context.
	He says, I believe what the DNI said, but you've got to take it in context.
	That's what he said.
	And I machinated over this particular clip for a while before I realized what context meant.
	The DNI report...
	He stated that a bunch of scientists and other people agreed that it was a natural formed element and the agreement was solid that it was naturally formed and it came out of bad or whatever.
	And in context, what he was saying, why he could agree with the DNI report, is that they were reporting on what the scientists said.
	They weren't reporting on the reality of it.
	Okay, okay, right.
	And that's what he meant by you've got to take this in context.
	And the context was the DNI was not discussing how this virus came about.
	There's probably other intelligence reports that came out that indicate, because he's very strong, that this was man-made, genetically engineered or whatever from the lab that it was escaped from.
	Which brings me back to what I think with the French guy, the guy who discovered the AIDS virus, said.
	And I'm a subscriber to him.
	Even though everyone says he's nuts, he's nuts!
	What did he say?
	So I listened to this over and over again.
	I realized that, yes, you can say that it was mad.
	And you can agree with the DNI report because the DNI report is just...
	Stating that all these scientists have said the following.
	Yes, I agree that the DNI reports got that right.
	Those scientists did say that.
	Well, that makes sense because the last thing he wants to do is supersede.
	Because the president also didn't say man-made.
	He didn't get into that.
	So Pompeo would not want to upstate.
	Yeah.
	Not a great term.
	Trouble getting into it.
	I didn't have any trouble agreeing with the DNI report, which...
	It wasn't, it was, I don't think it was well done.
	No.
	But I think, but when he says in context, that was the key word.
	I got you.
	I got you.
	Yeah, so anyway, so I think he's not lying.
	No.
	But it's confused the reporters and he never really got out, went out of his way to explain it.
	Not helpful.
	Not helpful.
	It's not helpful.
	The Chinese here at Loud and Clear, though, especially when it comes to that Five Eyes report.
	This is from 60 Minutes in Australia.
	How's this for a slap?
	This week, Australia was described as chewing gum on the boot of China that needed to be scraped off on a rock.
	The insult came from an influential Chinese newspaper editor backed by the Communist Party.
	Our crime?
	We're troublemakers because our government is calling for an independent inquiry into the origins and spread of coronavirus.
	It's fair to say our relationship with Beijing is currently fractured.
	But understanding why China is so defensive, not to mention petulant, is difficult because the regime is so suspicious of the Western media.
	Chewing gum, huh?
	Stuck to the shoe.
	Well, that's not going to play well.
	That's international words of war, my friend.
	You can't just say that.
	Chewing gum seems to be scraped off.
	Especially in context of Eastern culture and chewing gum.
	Like, chewing gum is really low.
	Low on the pole.
	Yes, it is.
	Very low.
	So, there is an attack on China...
	There's polls everywhere saying, overwhelming majority of peoples, and here's the term, here's the term we should be on the lookout for, decouple.
	We want to consciously decouple from China.
	I think this is going to be the term, decoupling.
	Yeah, that's been, I'd say, around for a couple of months.
	It comes and goes.
	Yeah, I'm hearing it strong.
	It's a good term.
	Maybe it's catching on, is what you think.
	It could be catching on, decoupled, decoupled.
	Ted Cruz is on his own little mission.
	And he's doing the rounds.
	And he wants to force Hollywood to stand up to Chinese censorship.
	And at first I was kind of puzzled.
	Like, why are you so interested in this?
	Who gives a crap?
	And then I realized what he's really doing.
	He's saying, we can't have these movies, which have a permanent desk at the Pentagon, using our military equipment, i.e.
	Top Gun, If these productions are also going to be involved in censorship and in Top Gun-specific instance, Tom Cruise's flight jacket had a Taiwanese flag.
	It had to be removed.
	So for some reason, Ted Cruz is spending a lot of time on that.
	And I think that it may...
	It's meant to cripple China in multiple ways, but I think they do have such huge investments in movies and Hollywood that he's trying to hurt them there.
	But it's just an odd thing to do.
	It's like, whatever.
	There's even more to it than that.
	What you got?
	He knows the connection.
	I don't know.
	I'm not a mind reader.
	I don't know what Ted Cruz is thinking.
	He may have nefarious scheme underfoot.
	Underway.
	Maybe underfoot.
	He...
	Something offensive to...
	Right now, we're trying to get Taiwan to get involved in WHO and some other thing.
	We're moving to get Taiwan's independence recognized.
	I mean, there's a million things that we've been trying to do with Taiwan ever since the 1940s.
	Right.
	When they ran off and the government, the Republic of China ran off to become the Republic of China on Taiwan.
	They run off the mainland by Mao.
	And so there's that element, and so any pushback by the Chinese on stuff like that little flag is going to be rejected, especially when, yeah, the Chinese invest a lot of money.
	How much money do you think the State Department or the Defense Department spends on one of these war movies in terms of just fuel for the jets and all the things?
	Oh yeah, it's a lot of money.
	It's millions.
	Yeah.
	And it's So why are we, you know, taking a back seat to the Chinese investment when we're making these investments and these movies actually can't be done without an investment?
	And I agree.
	I'm just kind of confused as to why Ted Cruz is in this, but maybe he's trying to create a squeeze and he's really going after Hollywood and not China.
	I think it's possible he's going after Hollywood.
	Yeah, that would make more sense.
	That would make more sense.
	So meanwhile, we have, on the medical front, we have multiple trials going.
	We know Remdesivir is now in trial, which, I have all these great stats.
	It's all in the show notes.
	The cost of Remdesivir is like $400 a day.
	hydroxychloroquine at pennies a day.
	It's really quite incredible.
	And it just seems like anything that is not approved by Dr. Dr. Death himself, Dr. Fauci, that it has to be pushed back and quiet and be suppressed, let's not talk about it.
	And then all of a sudden we get this over the past few days out of Pittsburgh.
	Ross Township police believe two men found shot to death over the weekend was a murder-suicide.
	The body of 37-year-old Bing Lew was found Saturday at his home at the Meuse of Town North.
	Police believe Lew's killer left the townhome, went back to his car, and killed himself.
	That man has not been identified, but police say they believe that Lew and the man did know each other.
	So this research had been working on a...
	A cure, a treatment for COVID-19.
	And he goes out in a murder-suicide?
	What are the chances?
	But that brings us to the planned-demic issue.
	Quote-unquote documentary that has been socially censored.
	It's still available on multiple platforms.
	Have you seen this, John?
	It's about 26 minutes long, this part one.
	This woman has lots of videos that have come and gone.
	They all get censored.
	I always download them.
	Very good.
	So I have copies.
	Very good.
	Because I figure, you know, these things aren't going to last.
	This latest one, though, I have to say, the one with the ominous opening and the guy interviewing her, I think is the best produced and the most impactful, because this is the one meme.
	He's like, you've got to watch this.
	And I said, well, you know, I'm very familiar with this woman, and she's been bitching and moaning about one thing or another for a long time.
	A long time.
	Long time.
	Well, we actually discussed her probably about a decade ago when we just started the show.
	Now, I'll just want to say this about the documentary.
	I did not pull any clips from that because...
	It's great as a piece, and I think it's fantastic to make people aware of this story, and of this doctor's story in particular.
	But, you know, you get all the scary music.
	It's very dressed, and there's a lot of manipulation going on.
	So I found an interview that she did with...
	It was just her Skype call, but the quality is good, and the questions...
	She speaks in answer blocks.
	She's fantastic for media.
	But we knew about her when we first started talking about vaccines on this show 10, 11 years ago.
	They'll just be somewhat repetitive that we had found documentation from a big Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase, I think, medical conference.
	All the pharmaceutical companies were all jacked up because vaccines was the future.
	In some cases, they're mandatory, so it's a guaranteed paycheck.
	And they're indemnified.
	And they're indemnified.
	They don't have to go to the same testing because it's called a biologic.
	And there's so many great reasons for this.
	And we got a lot of contact, which I don't think I quite understood at the time, about Dr.
	Mikovits as it pertains to chronic fatigue syndrome.
	And people were trying to communicate something to us.
	And I certainly was just not, my headspace was not We just kind of started deconstructing stuff, and I was a little naive to some things that were going on, so it comes to the medical community.
	But in this first clip, she addresses that, and what she had figured out back in the day is that there were what are called XMRVs, which is mouse viral...
	Viral retrovirals, excuse me, X for cross, were showing up in different people and for reasons that were very unclear, but what this was creating was a chronic fatigue syndrome, not dissimilar to HIV, actually, in many ways.
	In fact, And we'll get to that later.
	Testing for HIV showed people with these ex-MRVs, i.e.
	this chronic fatigue syndrome, tested positive for HIV even though they didn't have HIV. So it's a mess.
	And she was a part of it.
	She's been part of Fauci's system for many years, and she has her own story about how she was kicked out and jailed and accused of fraud.
	And that's certainly stuff you can look into.
	I'm more interested in what she's saying.
	She sounds credible.
	She certainly has the curriculum to back her up.
	And let's go back to that initial issue when we were first introduced to her.
	But this is a current interview.
	This is Dr. Judy Mikovits.
	We isolated a new family of retroviruses called XMRV.
	That means xenotropic mouse-related retrovirus.
	So it was very clear that, you know, the human virome doesn't have mouse retroviruses.
	Therefore, we thought perhaps, as in the days of HIV, that this virus could have been spread through biological therapies.
	Because we use a lot of mice in therapy in our lab.
	We also remembered back to the days of HIV when HIV spread through the population from a contaminated blood supply.
	By the way, that very bit there, Alex Jones has been yelling about that for maybe 20 years.
	Vaccines being transported in contaminated blood.
	And that's where he got it from.
	Spread through the population from a contaminated blood supply.
	When it became clear in 2010 and 11 that in fact the blood supply was heavily contaminated and in fact the most likely way that these mouse viruses of many strains, not just one, got into humans.
	It was almost certainly from biological therapies, and the most likely, the most prominent one was vaccines, that in fact, that we were injecting in mouse tissue, you know, Mises pieces, into immune cells.
	Incompetent little babies, people, and we had actually literally caused a number of diseases, including this is a family of mouse cancer-causing viruses, so cancers and neuroimmune diseases,
	including chronic fatigue syndrome, autism, Lou Gehrig's disease, others are associated with retroviruses, and it was very clear in 2011, in the summer of 2011, this wasn't just one, but many, and the most likely way they got into humans was a contaminated blood supply and contaminated vaccines.
	So contaminated vaccines, any stories you've heard in the past likely stem from her, because that's where I remember it from, and that's where that chronic fatigue syndrome came from.
	But we did have lots of clips, if you recall, during the swine flu bull crap.
	There was a huge set of vaccines that went out that had live swine flu in them, And would have given people swine flu to push the numbers up.
	I don't know.
	I mean, it seems like the carelessness was weird.
	And there was some cross-contamination of other vaccines that had nothing to do with swine flu, but the swine flu was in there.
	And these were caught at the border kind of as they were being shipped out.
	But who...
	You don't know, because since they're not, they're indemnified from any damages, no matter what's in the shot they give you, anything could be in there.
	That's why I think a lot of people are, I, for example, do get, I got a vaccine, I got the Prevnar 13 vaccine a couple months back.
	And before COVID broke out, because I figured, well, you know, let's get it, because my doctor said I should get it, and everybody said you should get this.
	If you're getting older, you want to get this.
	And this is the flu vaccine?
	No, the Prevnar 13 stops 13 different kinds of pneumonia.
	Hmm.
	But at the same time, I'm very dubious about any of these things because there's now something going on because there was a new experimental pneumonia vaccine that floated around to get a bunch of people sick.
	This is well-established, so I wasn't too worried about it.
	It was very expensive.
	So I wasn't, you know, I said, well, they're not...
	How many people are going to be spending this much money for this vaccine?
	But I'm always skeptical.
	And if you look at the stuff that Robert Kennedy Jr.
	said about the Gates Foundation, Bill's experiments on babies in all of Africa and India, I mean, most of his vaccine experiments have gone south.
	You're not going to like this.
	A couple weeks ago, we discussed a study that was a published account, a medical journal published account, it's in the show notes once again, that a number of military personnel who the 2017-2018 flu vaccination was tested on,
	From that test group, it turned out that those who had been administered the 2017-2018 seasonal flu vaccine had a 36% higher chance of contracting a respiratory disease from some other virus, specifically coronavirus.
	Do you remember that report?
	I do remember that.
	Okay.
	And it's called...
	It's called...
	There's a term for it.
	It's like interference.
	I think it's vaccination interference.
	Well, it's mentioned in this clip because this is where it gets pretty messed up as this is the crux of what Dr.
	Mikovits is really saying is going on with COVID-19.
	What Dr.
	Fauci has been saying is get the influenza vaccines, the live attenuated influenza vaccines, and there have been several publications, but one in 2017 and 18 among the military, which actually said, The flu vaccine promotes the spread.
	That is, you're 36% more likely to get COVID-19 or an infection with SARS-CoV-2 if you get the influenza vaccine.
	So his advice to the country is totally against published literature that says it's dangerous that you don't You know, that you're driving the disease with the influenza vaccine.
	And that would spread it easier across nations because you shed those viruses.
	That is, you express those viruses and you'll actually, you know, can get an influenza, the same kind of symptoms, the same kind of upper respiratory infection.
	And now you're more likely to spread from human to human.
	The coronaviruses, and in fact, other microbial agents, other viruses, respiratory syncytial virus, rhinoviruses, that cause upper respiratory diseases, including influenza.
	And what she's saying here is, if you had the flu shot in 2017-18, and possibly with any flu shot or with any vaccination, which may have some contamination in it, that seems to be prevalent, but there's evidence that the actual flu shot could make you very susceptible to this, and she explains how this works, because this sounds very familiar.
	And even worse, the vaccines for COVID-19, the vaccine that would target directly SARS-CoV-2, has been studied since the original SARS outbreak and the original MERS, which is Middle East Respiratory Syndrome outbreak,
	Since that time, the vaccine development has gone on, and in every case and in every study, the vaccine actually drives the death by literally turning on the fire, exploding the fire of the immune, the overreaction of the immune system that is what we call the signature of disease.
	It's that inflammatory cytokine storm, and the vaccine itself Can drive that storm such that if you are re-exposed, it can lead to rapid death.
	Yay!
	By the way, as I listen to that clip, I'm reminding us.
	I didn't record it, but they were talking about...
	Actually, I do have a clip.
	Let's see if I can find it.
	It's the clip that says...
	Because I was watching this clip as they were doing it.
	This is the...
	Not the source of mutants.
	I wanted to get into that, but...
	I can't find it instantly.
	But they're working on a vaccine.
	Dr.
	Bright ignored, maybe?
	No, no.
	They're working on a vaccine, and they're showing...
	Human testing has begun.
	I wish I had this on here.
	Human testing has begun, and they show some poor...
	Poor schlub getting a shot of some human test COVID-19.
	I'm thinking, what maniac is signing up for this?
	Have you ever even listened to any alternative media?
	I'm serious.
	I'm like screaming at this guy.
	I'm screaming at the television.
	So the kill shot from Dr.
	Mikovic, and then at least you know what's going on, but I think she puts a lot of reputation on the line here for whatever she has left.
	She's written several books about this topic and how she was...
	And it has a lot to do with money and patents and this cabal of Fauci and Burks, Lieutenant Commander Colonel Burks, Ambassador, and Redfield from the CDC... And Bright.
	All these guys have been around with Gates Foundation.
	I mean, it's great to see pictures of Fauci and Birx with Elton John at the AIDS Gala.
	I mean, these are celebrities.
	They are very big in their world.
	But...
	Along the way, we've seen, or as the doctor will chronicle, there's been a lot of cover-ups and lying to push agendas and get things that don't work to work so people can make money.
	There's a published study from 2005 about the efficacy of hydroxychloroquine.
	Fauci is aware of these studies.
	It's his own group of the government that's done these, yet...
	When it comes to this particular illness, no, no, no, it's just anecdotal evidence.
	I believe they did some fudging on the numbers or changed the test goals to push the remdesivir through.
	And of course, ultimately, it's all to really have nothing that works well in the people's mind than the vaccine, which is inevitable.
	The push is real, but she feels that Dr.
	Fauci should go to jail.
	Do you think that Dr.
	Fauci played a part in COVID-19 then?
	Do you think that he should be held accountable or responsible or criminally responsible for the corruption with COVID-19 or even tracing back as far as 30 plus years?
	Oh, absolutely.
	He should be held criminally responsible all the way back to the spread of Of HIV AIDS through the country.
	At the same time, he did the same thing he's doing now in COVID-19.
	That is prevent the use of therapies like hydroxychloroquine or type 1 low dose type 1 interferon alpha.
	Or any number of natural things prevent people, you know, from doing the appropriate testing.
	The FDA didn't do the appropriate serology testing that that would have shown that, in fact, we the virus had been through this country earlier than thought.
	And we may have actually had in many places a natural herd immunity that isn't occurring with the lockdown and that people aren't being are being prevented from, you know, even if they were exposed from from getting the disease with prophylactic measures.
	That's preventative measures like hydroxychloroquine and all the same time promoting drug use in research and clinical trials, which he's also doing a similar thing to what he did, what he directed to be done in the case of the XMRVs.
	That's that's fraudulent studies that that show, you know, that that a drug works when it really doesn't work and how they manipulate the study design in order to, you know, to drag it out.
	And then, because we're not developing a natural herd immunity, the amount of disease and death that's being caused while he's promoting measures that not only don't work, but have caused literally the devastation of our economy and we won't even be able to count the number of deaths from people who couldn't get adequate Care for things like cancer and cardiovascular disease.
	Just simple care for things that have nothing to do with COVID-19.
	I demand an investigation!
	Yeah, you're going to get an investigation, alright.
	You're going to get an investigation as to why they fired or moved Dr.
	Bright.
	It's going to be done by Adam Schiff.
	Alright, let's get into it.
	Let's get into it.
	Fat Jerry Adler.
	And that's where your investigation's going.
	Because already they're talking...
	I didn't want to switch subjects.
	I had some other subjects to say.
	But let's talk about the bright guy emerges, CBS clip.
	We talked about this guy months ago.
	This guy got kicked out of the...
	He was bitching and moaning about using oxychloroquine and chloroquine, which nobody uses.
	And he says that...
	And just listen to this idiot.
	Listen to these two clips.
	This is the Bright guy reemerged.
	This is Dr.
	Bright character.
	Toxychloroquine and chloroquine, he just decided he could no longer remain silent.
	CBS News has learned Bright has agreed to testify on Capitol Hill next week, and he hopes to get his old job back.
	Tonight, an HHS official says that he was transferred to a critical role at NIH, and they are disappointed he hasn't shown up for work.
	Nora?
	Okay, so now this douchebag, which I'm going to call him that because of the following clip.
	This clip is under Dr.
	Bright.
	Ignore it.
	This is from Democracy Now!
	I'm going to just kind of set it up.
	They're, of course, all in because this guy was wrong.
	Let's start with this premise.
	He's a government worker, not necessarily the best known in this field for anything.
	He's just a guy who's running this one very small branch of another division.
	And he is what I've seen these guys.
	I've worked in the government long enough to run into guys like this.
	Everybody in the government's writing cover your ass memos.
	And they're just that's what you do.
	You do you just in case.
	And so this guy is just really a nude Nick out of the blue.
	There's nobody's ever heard of him until this.
	He's made this big fuss.
	And now they're going to bring him in for so he can testify against Trump.
	Even though Trump doesn't know really what's going on, I don't think.
	But let's play this clip and I'll tell you what's galling me about this.
	And instead, to award lucrative contracts based on political connections.
	In other words, I was pressured to let politics and cronyism drive decisions over the opinions of the best scientists we have in government.
	Bright also says he repeatedly and urgently demanded action in January to address the looming pandemic, including a critical shortage of personal protective equipment for doctors like N95 face masks, but was ignored.
	Of course.
	He was ignored because he's – like most people in the government, you're ignored because everybody's bitching and moaning about one thing or the other.
	So this guy going on, I was ignored.
	I was ignored.
	And that's what he's going to testify against.
	I wrote a memo on January 5th saying we don't have enough – why would he even have anything to do with the N95 face masks, the stats, how many there are, what the hospitals have?
	It doesn't make any sense, but okay.
	I was ignored.
	I wrote this memo and I was ignored.
	Oh, you wrote this memo and you were ignored?
	Nobody said anything?
	Oh, well, my boss has told me to stop writing memos.
	It's just ridiculous, this guy.
	And they're going to make a mountain out of a molehill as best they can and try to impeach Trump again.
	And so the theory is because this guy wrote a memo which was ignored, thousands died.
	Is that it?
	That's the idea?
	Blood on your hands.
	Yes, exactly.
	Just briefly on the testing.
	You know, testing's ramping up.
	And I am still surprised how many people are so poorly informed that they read in our local news here at Austin, oh, we have 60 new cases.
	Oh my god, stay inside!
	No, no, listen, we're testing more.
	And it's good news.
	The more people who are asymptomatically infected, the lower the actual chance you have of dying.
	You would have more information.
	But the tests are a problem, and I think one of the...
	One of the main points of David Icke's theory is that the test is for just a coronavirus, but not necessarily the COVID-19 creating coronavirus.
	And we know from...
	Dr.
	Mikovits, that there were positive tests on people who were supposed to have had AIDS, which they didn't.
	They had these XMRV mouse crap in your veins.
	But the tests are a real issue.
	This is only a report.
	I'm sure you won't get this on the mainstream.
	You won't.
	From Reuters, so take that for what you will.
	Coronavirus test kits used in Tanzania were dismissed as faulty by President John Magufuli on Sunday.
	He said they had returned positive samples.
	And he's a chemist, by the way.
	That's why he ordered it.
	So they had received positive samples, positive results, on samples taken from a goat and from a pawpaw, which is a fruit.
	So both the goat and the pawpaw tested positive for COVID-19.
	I mean, I'll even take the goat.
	But you're going to tell me that fruit...
	A tasty fruit?
	The pawpaw.
	You should have heard what the goat had to say about the whole ordeal.
	Ah!
	Yeah, so...
	And now I'm in contact with one of our producers who was working with antibodies and tests, and this lab person has told me that there's been some issues getting the right...
	I guess you need the spike protein or whatever, and there are different labs from overseas.
	It may be India.
	It could be China.
	I mean, I can't get answers to everything because of secrecy and NDAs and things, and so it's hard to get full info.
	But I finally just said, is it possible that whatever the hell they're sending you is just not really the right one?
	And that's something that our producer could not answer.
	There's no way to know that.
	So there's a lot of, you know, because you can put perhaps the ACE2... It's out of control.
	It is.
	This is out of control.
	Trump is right.
	We've got to bring this stuff back here.
	We don't know what the hell is going on.
	It's crazy.
	We're going to be a scammer.
	At least give our own scammers the cash.
	Exactly.
	And with that...
	I'd like to thank you for your courage to say in the morning to you, the man who put the sea in social censorship, John C. Dvorak.
	Well, in the morning to you, Mr.
	Adam Kerr.
	Also in the morning, your ship is to sea, boots, and ground feet in the air.
	So there's the war, the demons and knights out there.
	Hey, trolls, in the morning to you.
	Y'all, let me see how many trolls we can count today.
	We've got 1,570.
	It's a Thursday.
	It's about right, almost 1,600.
	You too can be a troll, and you will feel right at home if you live under a bridge currently, but it's really...
	Nice at NoAgendaStream.com.
	You can troll along.
	They've been very helpful this morning, actually.
	Hand in some one-liners and ideas and thoughts where we take the conversation.
	And, of course, some people are just A-holes and they troll.
	NoAgendaStream.com.
	Go there.
	Hang out with your fellow friends.
	Excuse me.
	You can also get an invitation there.
	It's free for NoAgendaSocial.com.
	So then you can hook up with our little part of the Federation.
	In addition to that, a big in the morning, two comic strip blogger whose artwork was selected for the episode titled The Beaches Are Open, episode 1239.
	And this was the Apple logo pooping out location.
	Apparently it was some scatological joke with the government.
	Because they are the ones receiving the information from Apple.
	And it was good.
	I don't know why.
	It wasn't the best.
	It was the best, but there were other choices it didn't quite make.
	What happened?
	There was one that was the best.
	Oh, right.
	I remember what it was.
	Hold on.
	Let me go in and take a look.
	Unfortunately, it was ghoulish.
	Too rude.
	Which one was it?
	Which one was it again?
	I can't remember.
	I'll find them.
	It was by Darren, who just must have been beside himself, chuckling to himself, you know, behind the mic.
	See if these guys picked this.
	It was well done.
	Uh, why can't I find it now?
	That's interesting.
	Did it get taken off?
	Well, we had the, Joe, Joe, well, we had the comic strip, a different one from comic strip blogger.
	I used this, the other one, I actually comic strip blogger got a twofer because I gave him the, uh, I put that on the newsletter.
	Oh, nice.
	The other one.
	But this other one, I was almost tempted to use the lewd one.
	Oh, we liked Tommy the Heretic with Operation Warp Speed, which was cool because it was a syringe like the Starship Enterprise.
	Yeah, that was well done.
	But then he had a butt, a female butt with a thong.
	It's like, no, I'm not going to put that in there.
	Yeah.
	I mean, we don't mind a good-looking butt, but if it's gratuitous...
	It's unnecessary buttage.
	It was just not needed.
	There's no way this buttage belongs on this art, so it got kicked just from that.
	I can't find the other one that was so offensive.
	It's still there.
	I can't find it.
	I don't know.
	I think it got removed.
	Oh, no, no, I remember.
	I remember what it was.
	It was the best piece of art, and even we couldn't...
	I don't even think we can discuss it.
	Well, yeah, I can just tell you what it was.
	It was a Kentucky Fried Chicken logo turned into Joe with Biden instead of Kentucky Fried Chicken, and it was Joe Biden president, finger-licking good.
	And now we felt that was not appropriate.
	No, it wasn't.
	And Darren knows that.
	He knows that.
	He did it on purpose just to see if you get one through.
	I mean, it's what you always do.
	Creative types are always trying to sneak something through.
	Oh, yeah.
	You know, it doesn't fly with other creative types who know what you're up to.
	Yeah, it's like Disney, you know, hiding penises in Snow White's dress and stuff like that, and we're on to that.
	Well, there's still got talented artists there.
	Let's start with thanking a few people, including, do we have a little theme music for Sir Dave?
	No, I don't think, well, I mean, we don't have one special for him, I don't think, do we?
	I don't think so.
	Yes, we do.
	What are you talking about?
	Yes, we do.
	Sir David, the Duke of America's heartland in the Arabian Peninsula in Gladstone, Missouri.
	Well, he's not there.
	I think he's still in Saudi Arabia.
	That's 666.66.
	He always has a note that's interesting.
	Dear Ma, Kettle, and Mother Teresa, you know which ones you are.
	Today I learned that Ann Jarvis, the woman largely credited for creating what we now know as Mother's Day, later become so disgusted by its commercialization that she boycotted it and tried to sue companies who were profiting off the holiday.
	Jingle, the more you know, oh no agenda.
	Anyways...
	Since I recall that, I was one of the two-ish producers.
	Oops.
	Sorry.
	I was one of the...
	Oops.
	What are you oopsing about?
	Oh, I hit a button on here and it took the whole screen off.
	Did you drop your knitting?
	Hold on a second.
	Control-Z brings it back.
	Ah, there it is.
	Good old Control-Z. Good old Control-Z. I was one of the two-ish producers who supported their mothers the past five years.
	Yeah, two.
	I think that's right.
	I figured I should continue my yearly habit with another one, 66.66 in the traditional number associated with mothers.
	Yeah.
	Isn't it?
	I guess.
	Binged it, but got inconclusive data.
	This donation represents 222.22 for each of Dame.
	Melody, my mom, Pauline, and Melody's mom, Yolanda, the best moms a guy could have in his life.
	If you've got a good mother-in-law, you've got it made.
	You do.
	I really hit the jackpot When it comes to mothers, and I love you all.
	A Mother's Day goat karma for all the mothers out there, please.
	And thank you for your courage.
	And thank you for your courage.
	And yes, indeed, it is Mother's Day.
	And typically on the No Agenda show, there's no love for moms, but the tide might be turning.
	You've got karma.
	The more you know in the morning.
	And Comfort comes in from Indianapolis, Indiana with $333.
	Here we are sitting on the deck on Sunday afternoon during the quarantine.
	My wife asks...
	I thought this was his wife.
	This is Ann.
	Okay, maybe they're married women.
	Could be.
	My wife asks, why are you a freeloader?
	Why are you a freeloader?
	It's embarrassing.
	We had just listened to the No Agenda show and you were discussing the highlights.
	I quickly told her she made her point.
	After 41 years of marriage, you learn stuff like that.
	Then I came up with the idea to make her a dame.
	Ah, here's the beginning of our tribute to reach that goal.
	We also ordered awesome No Agenda masks a couple of weeks ago, and like Adam, are still awaiting their arrival.
	Get these masks out!
	Well, but that's not, just so you know, that's not No Agenda shop.
	It was a different mask, and I'm regretting that I didn't just...
	Yeah, it's a mask company.
	I should have just gone for the gator from the shop.
	It was dumb.
	I thought you had Jay paint something.
	Yeah.
	For everybody.
	For every order.
	For every order.
	Negatively affected by the quarantine.
	Hold on.
	Hold on.
	Stop.
	Stop.
	Hold on a second.
	Well, you mentioned something here.
	I want to explore this.
	We could have custom painted no agenda masks.
	This is a huge premium.
	Yes, we could.
	We could also have that.
	Yes.
	And Jay would do them.
	Yeah.
	What else is Jay doing?
	She's just hanging around the house.
	No, she's up north.
	She took a drive with Nick up to Washington.
	Even better.
	They have room there to store them for boxes.
	Golf laws, apparently.
	Jump in the car.
	Now, I'm exempt.
	I could do these things.
	Yes, we are.
	We are podcasters, by law, exempt.
	We're essential personnel.
	So if anybody's a podcaster and making a big stink about staying at home, then they're just virtue signaling because we don't have to stay at home or do anything.
	I have to wear a mask in a store, obviously, because they're going to kick you out.
	But besides that, anyway, please give some jobs karma to the people negatively affected by the quarantine and dedouche my wife so she can hear that's true.
	Keep up the good fight and thanks from Blicard Zirkle and the future Dame Swanee.
	Bleakard?
	Bleckard?
	I'm not familiar with his name.
	That's definitely interesting.
	All right.
	Yes, of course we can do that.
	De-douching first.
	Here we go.
	You've been de-douched.
	That's true.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!
	You've got karma.
	All right, so that one's...
	I guess that's for Anne.
	This is good.
	Future Dame Swanee.
	Very nice.
	Ty McMahan.
	It's funny, there's no 33333s, that's weird.
	ITM and 73s from Terrell, KX4MQ73, former producer of the business Poland for CNBC in Poland.
	All right.
	Oh, good for you.
	As a former M5M, I can say you guys are spot on!
	Of course we are.
	He has a great name, too.
	With your analysis.
	He has a great name.
	Ty McMahon, everybody.
	How you doing?
	Ty here.
	Ty McMahon.
	Yeah.
	He should be a radio jock.
	Yes, he probably is.
	Keep up the good work, VFWorks.
	Oh, value for value.
	Duh.
	I'd like Adam to call out my buddy, Len, as a douchebag.
	Okay.
	In Dutch and English.
	Okay, I'll do it in Dutch.
	I'll do it in English first.
	Douchebag!
	And then in Dutch.
	Hey, douchebag!
	Nailed it.
	I was hit in the mouth by Sir Trip Mazurik of Memphis.
	Uh...
	For clips, I'd like a Trump-Pelosi-Jobs karma with a goat scream for everyone trying to get back to work amidst this cluster of a mess.
	73s.
	73s to you.
	Kilo 5 Alpha Charlie Charlie.
	Jobs.
	Jobs.
	And jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!
	You've got karma.
	As a former member of the M5M, he's going to enjoy that clip from Kayleigh McEnany.
	No kidding.
	That's great.
	Coming up in the second half.
	Sir Raleigh of Weybridge in London.
	333.
	Another 333.
	This is interesting.
	Hi, Tim.
	John and Adam Sirrawley of Weybridge here.
	Due to some failed relationship karma, I'm requiring a name change to of Crystal Palace.
	Let me just make sure of this.
	Slayer of the concrete dinosaurs, if possible.
	Oh.
	Do a name change.
	You want to write it down?
	This donation is in memory of my father.
	He was a Vietnam vet who met my mother in London and moved to Northern Ireland, where his unique skills in weaponry and war served him well.
	Cool.
	In the Irish Republican Army?
	What?
	What?
	He always taught me to question our government's agenda.
	A lot of stories I dismissed as paranoia.
	Crazy old man.
	But lo and behold, more and more of their skullduggery has been revealed.
	He would have loved your show.
	Anyway, this donation is from some shares cashed in from a company named ITM. So I thought you'd better get your cut.
	I just would like a goat karma and an F cancer for my mom.
	Thankfully, this is one karma that has worked.
	Cheers.
	Yes, and I will officially bestow the new title upon you.
	You turn from Sir Raleigh of Weybridge to Sir Raleigh of Crystal Palace, Slayer of the Concrete Dinosaurs, on the way.
	You've got...
	Karma.
	Bye.
	. you you All right, Drew Sample, 3-22-72.
	Jingles, he's got, we're all gonna die, we're not happy.
	And it's true, you can do that.
	He wants three times.
	I don't know if you want to do that or not.
	It's up to you.
	First off, I'd like to thank you for your twice-weekly dose of sanity.
	It is needed more than ever.
	I'm a small-scale urban farmer in North Linden, Columbus, Ohio.
	When our douchebag governor decided to shut down that state's restaurant for dine-in, all of my income disappeared.
	Ah, making the high-end food for the restaurants that these small guys can do.
	It's hard, man.
	So did you make it?
	I just would ask him just rhetorically, did you make a switch to get to sell directly to the public?
	Because a lot of people did that for meat and produce.
	Do you know that there are billions of pounds of potatoes?
	And if they gave it that they can't that are just going to rot, if they if they gave it all away, I was reading, they gave every single potato away to the food bank, which serves two million people.
	Each person would have to buy 500 or have to take home 500 pounds.
	That's how many potatoes there are.
	We produce a lot of potatoes.
	This is a disaster in this regard, by the way.
	It's really bad.
	We're aware of this.
	I'm in need of more than ever of some small business karma.
	I'd also like to offer home deliveries for microgreens to the No Agenda producers in both Columbus and Toledo metropolitan areas.
	If they're interested, they can email me at CapitalCityGardens, all one word, CapitalCityGardens, at gmail.com.
	That's C-A-P-I-T-A-L. City Gardens.
	Okay.
	Or contact me, Drew Sample, at noagendasocial.com.
	Ah.
	Drew Sample.
	I recommend people do this and give this guy some direct income.
	Second, I would like to thank both Alex Bell and Jess Moore for hitting me in the mouth at our pre-No Agenda meetup brunch in April of 2018.
	I am looking forward to hosting a meetup after the COVID insanity is over.
	For this donation, I'm going to use 1216 of my donation to de-douche my smoking hot girlfriend, Corsica Lynn.
	Oops, what's her name?
	Corsica Lynn.
	You've been de-douched.
	I'd like to call out Jacob Ramirez and new listener Nathan Frazier as douchebags.
	Douchebag!
	Douchebag!
	There you go.
	Thank you both again for everything you guys do.
	Please give small business karma to all the other small business who are sharing my pain in the No Agenda community.
	Yep, you got it.
	Here's the sequence.
	We're all gonna die!
	And we are not happy.
	That's true.
	You've got karma.
	We have a lot of Ohio listeners that should help this guy out.
	We do.
	A couple of them.
	Just buy a bunch of stuff for your friends.
	Nothing like a good small provider of classy little greens.
	It's a big deal.
	Scott Porter becomes our first associate executive producer at $250.
	With today's donation, I have reached knighthood.
	I'd like to be fourth known as Sir Scott of the High Plains.
	I'd appreciate some jobs, Karma.
	Trump-Pelosi combo, and Merkel's Arbyte.
	I don't know if we have...
	Do we have Merkel with Arbyte?
	I still miss the Delta Sierra Charles.
	Delta Sierra Charlie, yes.
	Daily source code.
	Yeah, that would be the direct source code or whatever it is.
	Yeah, daily source code, thanks.
	Ah, daily.
	Yeah.
	Adam Carolla hosted that.
	Surely you know him, the podfather.
	Him and Ricky Gervais, all those guys.
	Yeah, well, Gervais was the podfather, not Corolla.
	You're getting it mixed up.
	I don't have that.
	I don't know what the Arbeit, Arbeit, Arbeit.
	I remember it.
	Arbeit, Arbeit, Arbeit.
	Yeah, but I don't have...
	Yes, I remember it.
	But you can't find it.
	Well, how was it labeled?
	It was either Labor...
	I'm assuming you already looked up Merkel and Arbeit.
	Yeah, we can't find it.
	It's just the way it goes.
	I said it just now.
	That's exactly the problem.
	So, what he does want is Pelosi-Trump jobs karma.
	And we'll start it off with a little bit of Merkel for you.
	Merkel!
	Jobs.
	Jobs.
	And jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!
	You've got karma.
	And we'll see you at the roundtable, Scott.
	Joe Bicesi, Sir Jobywan of Wikipog, I think.
	247.16.
	I can't thank you enough for continuing the infosainment.
	I need some jobs karma for me, my wife, and all the out-of-workers affected by this pandemic.
	Lady Karma is a dental hygienist.
	And is very nervous about returning to work in such a high-exposure profession, working inside people's mouths every day.
	I also potentially am switching jobs during these crazy times and somehow have to convince my current company to utilize me by paying my new company.
	Time to lace up my brown shoes.
	Sales!
	Sales!
	Can I get a title change for my lovely wife?
	She also wishes to be Lady Karma Cara.
	Lady Cara of the Clean Tooth instead of Lady Cara of Wikipog.
	You want to put that in the list?
	I got it.
	It's down.
	It was already on the list.
	She's good.
	In regards to my previous note, my name is not Joe Bisexual John.
	Did you say that?
	I don't know.
	It's possible.
	Now, now.
	It did make me laugh to hear you say it.
	And Adam, I thought you were a pothead, but you were confused at my roundtable request of Sticky Green.
	Doesn't that prove your point?
	It kind of does.
	Hey, man, I was...
	I don't know, whatever.
	I guess it's been almost 30 years since the term was first popularized by Snoop Dogg.
	Lastly, despite the running belief of the show...
	I indeed love my mother.
	But the chances of her listening to any podcast are slim.
	Oh, okay.
	That makes a little more sense.
	It's not that the moms hate the show.
	Those boys are just going to get you into trouble the way they think.
	Good one.
	Now, that is a good mom voice.
	And so that would be the rationale we're using.
	But...
	Huh?
	What's a podcast?
	Is probably the real reason.
	You're such an ageist old man, aren't you?
	Oh yeah.
	Absolutely.
	Well thank you Joe Bisesi.
	And the change will be made.
	You got it.
	And he wants his name changed to Joe Bisexual?
	Is that what he wants?
	I don't think so.
	Okay.
	All right, onward with Anonymous, 200 bucks.
	What could be better to give from my lockdown self than my finally attaining knighthood from the best podcast in the universe as the world goes completely nuts?
	I seek the sanctuary of sanity at the No Agenda Roundtable.
	On behalf of both me and my amygdala, thank you.
	I would like to ascend from Anonymous in San Francisco to Captain Luke, Knight of the Barbary Coast.
	Mm-hmm.
	Please play the classic Fear is Freedom followed by It's True followed by Boom Shakalaka and then provide COVID karma for all for all.
	For the round table, I'd like to add grappa and manicotti.
	Okay, hold on a second.
	I need the...
	This one I didn't have.
	Didn't we have Corona Karma?
	I'm pretty sure we had that.
	Corona.
	I don't recall it, personally.
	But I'm not the keeper of the karma.
	Let me see if I can find this real quick.
	Because we don't have COVID karma.
	We had Corona karma.
	Well, I guess I can't find that one either then.
	It just feels kind of stupid.
	I should be able to find that.
	You only have one eye.
	Yes, and he wants Grappa and Monica at the table.
	Yes, I'm working on it.
	Fear is freedom!
	Subjugation is liberation!
	Contradiction That's true.
	You've got Corona.
	Found it at the last minute.
	Alright.
	I don't know if that's what he wanted.
	You got Corona.
	That's what he got.
	David Walsh in Gold Coast, Queensland.
	$200.
	That's in Australia.
	Hi, John and Adam.
	I'm David Walsh from the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia.
	To celebrate my 10th anniversary of listening to the greatest podcast in the universe, I figured I'd get off my arse, which is what they say in some countries, including Australia.
	Arse.
	And complete my knighthood.
	I have a long message planned but decided against it, so I'll summarize.
	It was longer than this?
	This is pretty long.
	Thanks, man.
	I'm a dude named Ben and followed JCD here and after listening to him on Twit.
	I did take a 2.5 year hiatus from 2015 to mid-2017 due to my amygdala shrinking so much that I became cynical and jaded with everything.
	Yeah, that's a danger.
	That is a real danger.
	Some people have that.
	Who needs these guys?
	I can do this on my own.
	I don't need any hand-holding.
	In fact, the thing is, this is like a part of how Hollywood and other media work.
	It has to be collaborative.
	Neither one of us could do the shows.
	Yeah, between the two of us, it's the same thing.
	Yeah, we can't do the show.
	We could, but it wouldn't be as good and we'd be making mistakes constantly and it wouldn't work out.
	And we wouldn't definitely get on the kick that we're on of correcting people's use of that at the end of the day and things like that because you hear it on television all the time.
	It's just distressing.
	And so that includes the audience.
	The audience is the third element of the collaboration.
	And so it all works together.
	And that keeps you ever from, you know, that's why you shouldn't stop listening to the show.
	Which is why it's obvious that we all produce this show.
	It's a tribe effort.
	He continues by saying, I think it was over the Obama era, I've been far more entertained in the Trump era.
	So USA voters, please keep him in for another term.
	It makes me smile to see the media go nuts.
	I wish to thank you for your courage and wish you all the best for years to come.
	And so all the listeners, pony up for a subscription.
	Even five bucks a month helps.
	Jingle, train's good, plane's bad.
	Train, FOMA, the woo-hoo, listen to the horn.
	Karma, for all listeners and producers.
	Birthday, it's my 46th and May 6th.
	Please add me to the list.
	You're on the list.
	Knighthood name, Sir Dave of the Gold Coast.
	Sir Dave was my root username assigned to me in 1998 on a free BSD box.
	Please regards.
	Okay, I'm glad you have sentiment for the old BSD. Yes, it's always nice.
	David Walsh, P.S., your non-USA listeners use the date format date, month, year, Use the date format, date month, year, so I feel like you miss out on some good numbers.
	Yes, there's one coming up that if you reverse it against the European, yeah, we can do that.
	We do it once in a while.
	I'm sure you have thought about it, though, and I would like to raise it just in case.
	PPS, all money in USD. I do appreciate the gesture to match Aussie and Z Canadian.
	He's got South African dollars, bucks, though, and South African is Iran, so it's got to mean something else.
	I don't know what he's talking about.
	Anyway, thank you for the note.
	I think Southern Australia.
	Isn't he from Southern Australia?
	Oh, yeah, okay, Southern Australia.
	No, he's from the Gold Coast.
	Oh, no, he says Aussie.
	In southern Australia, it's not that they're using different money.
	I don't know.
	Who knows?
	They are chewing gum underneath the shoe of China.
	Who knows what they're doing over there.
	That's got to be scraped off.
	Thank you very much, David.
	And we'll see you later on at the roundtable.
	All aboard!
	Train's good, plane's bad.
	Woo-hoo!
	Yeah!
	Oh, my God!
	Woo!
	Listen to that horn!
	You've got karma.
	Woo!
	Loud.
	Sonia Bosenberg in Madison, Wisconsin.
	Jingles, Rubbleyzer, and the old Donate to No Agenda in the Gregorian chant style.
	We need to use that more in the end of the show.
	Request combo health and relationship karma for my son.
	Thank you for all your continued hard work.
	The BS is getting thick out there and having you guys makes me able to turn it all off.
	Love and light.
	So the Rubblizer number station and what else?
	The old, donate to no agenda.
	Or the Gregorian.
	Donate to no agenda.
	Donate to no agenda.
	Yeah, I think.
	Is it this one?
	Nope.
	Geez, I wasn't ready for that one.
	It starts off with a snare drum.
	That's not it.
	I got it.
	Here we go.
	India.
	Hang out.
	Mike.
	Stand by.
	33.
	Rob Eliza out.
	Donate to a No Agenda.
	They give us shows week after week.
	Donate to a No Agenda.
	It's a show that's really unique.
	Donate to a No Agenda.
	Listen to John and Adam speak.
	Donate to a no agenda.
	Science is turning into a clique.
	You've got karma.
	That's our Gregorian monks right there.
	And that's our producers and executive producers right there.
	Associate and executive.
	And associate executive.
	And however you want to put it.
	I want to thank them for making this show possible.
	This is show 1240 and they...
	This is very generous of them, and we appreciate it.
	It helps us go for the next show, which will be on Sunday.
	Yes.
	Thank you very much.
	We are still continuing, and it is because, indeed, of these people who have fresh titles, as they can now proudly display them as either executive producer of No Agenda Show episode 1240 or associate executive producer.
	If you're looking for a job, a lot of people will be.
	I think the things that will stand out is stuff like that, but also the knowledge that you actually...
	Johnny, you were just explaining...
	This is not radio.
	This is something completely new.
	And you can call it a podcast, but it's different when you have the audience actively participating in it.
	You call it the third leg.
	What are the other two besides us?
	The other two besides us and their leg one were the other two legs.
	Okay, that's right.
	Yes, so together we are all three.
	I got you.
	Kickstand.
	You are our kickstand and we appreciate it.
	We also appreciate everyone who supports the show by producing and by donating.
	We'll be thanking more of them in our second half.
	And please remember, we will be back on Sunday to do it all over again with whatever else comes out.
	We'll be there to hold each other's hands and yours.
	Just go to Dvorak.
	And remember, it is Mikevich who's on deck.
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	Shut up.
	Real.
	World.
	Order.
	No, no!
	Shut up.
	Everything went wrong here today. - Okay, sorry about that.
	It's my eye, man.
	I can't see stuff.
	I have a couple of series to play here.
	First of all, let me skip to something that's a little lighter.
	They're trying to scare us with this meat shortage thing that can make us freak.
	And I want to just point out that on this show, weeks ago, we had a producer from a meatpacking outfit give us some very clear warnings that this was coming.
	Yeah, and it's coming, and it's here.
	And, of course, they're doing what they can, and Trump did an executive order.
	They want to keep the meat flowing.
	So they did a report on CBS, NORA, And I want to play, this is the intro to the report, and then she kicks it to one of her reporters to do the stand-up.
	This meat shortage.
	Tonight, grocery giants are putting a cap on how much meat customers can buy as the pandemic forces more processing plants to shut down.
	And at hundreds of Wendy's restaurants, managers are asking that famous question from a Wendy's ad campaign.
	Where's the beef?
	I like that you say meat must flow.
	It's like liquid meat.
	So she goes on and on, and then she cuts it, says, and so-and-so's going to report on this, and they bring it to a guy who goes on about the Tice, and he starts reporting on the whole thing.
	And then right in the, kind of right, as he wraps it up, I would bet money, although they would never admit to this, but ABC does this all the time, and they're very obvious because they're timed perfectly.
	There's a native ad dropped into the middle of this report, just right at the point where you want to hear it.
	And I don't think it's going to help sell anything, but...
	If this isn't a native ad, because you've got to remember they're talking about all the closures, and these guys are wrapping it up, and this is it.
	And as a sign of the times, the Impossible Foods Company announced that its Impossible Burger, which is made with plants, will be available in 2,700 grocery stores nationwide starting this week.
	And it says it's ready to expand to meet the growing demand.
	Well, this would be one heck of a battle, and if the meat guys got defeated by the only thing that was left on the shelves during an actual pandemic where people possibly could starve, they didn't buy that crap.
	They didn't!
	So they throw this little gem at the end, and I'm thinking, I wonder what they paid.
	It's a 15-second ad.
	It's just a spot.
	Oh, cheapo.
	And 15-second ads do exist.
	Yeah, it's cheap.
	And it's just like, oh, brother.
	I just rolled my eyes.
	I killed the rest of the report.
	I didn't want to play any of it.
	I just wanted to play the native ad.
	Oh, man.
	To point out that these guys are douchebags.
	Oh, yeah.
	Oh, yeah.
	No, you know who are douchebags?
	The news reporters at home who have the Apple AirPods in their ears.
	Oh, the worst.
	Doesn't it look like they've got cigarette butts hanging out of their head?
	Yeah.
	It's not a good look.
	I can't get over it.
	I'm like, well, I have one, and I'm distracted, like, well, I only have one, you know?
	Why didn't you want two?
	And can you hear yourself?
	What's going on?
	It's a dumb look.
	Most of the looks and sounds of these at-home guys and the beard, they're growing a beard, and all the rest are in the books.
	They've got books behind them all the time.
	They look smart and the whole thing.
	There's some people going around analyzing these things.
	It's very funny.
	The books.
	I've got some books.
	I've got a rare book.
	It is so odd that people think that's a good look with books.
	Books rarely look good in the background.
	They just don't.
	I would like, if I was doing this, I would do one of these desks that is just an outrageous mess.
	I wouldn't have to do a lot.
	Exactly.
	Just turn the camera on, you're done.
	Yeah, I'm good to go.
	I could use my little studio set here and have the gong in the background.
	I could have a couple of these crushed cans.
	Got a couple of crushed cans here.
	It just looks like you're just hanging out.
	Just a mess.
	I think that's the way to go.
	No one has the guts to do that.
	You have crushed cans, just in case, in your studio?
	Well, here's what I know.
	I had these Pellegrino cans, and I crushed them, and then I noticed that they were good for...
	They were good little devices for making more sounds.
	And I told you this before.
	I thought this would make a good Geiger counter sound.
	That's actually pretty good Geiger counters.
	Wait a minute.
	You have these things since the Geiger counter comparison?
	The cans have been there?
	Yeah, a can right here.
	It's in the sound effects bin.
	It's hot, man.
	It's radioactive.
	You are a special individual, John C. Dvorak.
	You are a special man.
	Interesting article that showed up.
	I think it came...
	Well, Zero Hedge, they always have some kind of...
	I like how they pull stuff.
	You've got to link out of them, though.
	They're good for headlines.
	But apparently, Reuters is reporting that the Trump administration is getting ready to release plans to initiate a pact among several nations, our allies, for mining the moon.
	And there's going to be an international agreement that it will be called the Artemis Accords.
	Now, Artemis, I think, is the name of this mission or the name of the next mission to the moon.
	I have so much trouble believing all this.
	I mean, 50 years ago, We landed a tinker toy wrapped in tin foil on the moon.
	Since then, we went from a phone, if you touch the wires it could actually shock you, to a phone that is now a supercomputer in your pocket, the advances, the internet, all this stuff.
	Why isn't Elon Musk already spinning donuts on the moon in his Tesla?
	I just don't understand what happened.
	And I wonder if we're ever going to get to the moon again.
	Anyway, that's all I had to say on that.
	Okay, I think that's valid.
	It's a valid opinion.
	I wanted to play these three clips because the media is losing their, people are losing interest in COVID. Oh no!
	We've got to bring them back in the fold.
	So let's go with this one.
	This is Nora Opens with Mutant Virus.
	Oh!
	Hold on a second.
	Where is, uh, yes, got it.
	As we come on the air tonight, coronavirus infections are still growing in much of the country.
	Just as we're learning, there is now a more powerful mutant strain of the virus that is even more difficult to treat.
	There are now more than 20,000 new confirmed cases every day here in the United States.
	And while cases are declining in the New York City area, the epicenter of the crisis, elsewhere the rate of infection is rising.
	Still 44 states are moving forward with lifting restrictions.
	And tonight President Trump is acknowledging those moves to reopen could lead to even more deaths, telling reporters today that Americans should, quote, think of themselves as warriors.
	Okay, a couple of things.
	First of all, the way she does that report, it makes it sound like there's 20,000 new cases of the mutant virus.
	That's what she did.
	Just using the term mutant.
	Just the term mutant virus.
	Whoever put this story together had her read it across information, so she went from one subject to another.
	I want you to play the beginning of this again and listen to this, where she is claiming, if you just listen to her, that there's 20,000 new cases of the mutant virus.
	As we come on the air tonight, coronavirus infections are still growing in much of the country.
	Just as we're learning, there is now a more powerful mutant strain of the virus.
	By the way, mutant strain.
	Mutant strain of the virus that is even more difficult to treat.
	There are now more than 20,000 new confirmed cases every day here in the United States.
	And while cases are...
	Yeah, you're right.
	Of course.
	Of course.
	Yeah.
	It's a poor copy.
	She never follows up on the information, so I have an older clip from Democracy Now.
	The clip is called Source of Mutant Strain.
	A new study finds the novel coronavirus that emerged in China mutated in Europe in February to become more contagious, speeding its spread around the globe.
	The report from the Los Alamos National Laboratory also warns the mutated strain could leave people vulnerable to a second infection of COVID-19.
	The finding has not been peer-reviewed, and the director of the National Institutes of Health urged caution, saying the study draws sweeping conclusions about the virus that might not hold up to further scrutiny.
	The authors of the study said they released the study early so that people who are working on vaccines could see their results.
	What?
	What do you mean people working on vaccines can see their results?
	This is bullcrap.
	And the whole thing is bullcrap.
	What can we do to stretch this out a little more?
	Well, if you can't do it with the new...
	I love the way Nora pronounces mutant.
	Mutant.
	Yeah.
	Mutant.
	Whoops, there goes the Zephyr.
	Oh, how are we doing?
	One, two, three, four, five, six...
	Seven cars.
	It was really late.
	Zephyr is hours late.
	So that is not a good sign.
	We'd like to see a solid nine cars as a stable, good economy.
	Eight is...
	Eight is okay.
	It is okay.
	We've had a ten in the past seven.
	I mean, at least it's running.
	It may be late, but it's running.
	I'm happy about that.
	It's two hours late.
	Why can it be so late?
	Okay.
	So it's not bad enough that the...
	Mutant.
	Just drain and the virus is going to kill you.
	Try this one.
	Mystery COVID children's disease.
	Now to a mystery illness that's putting otherwise healthy children in the hospital.
	More than a dozen children in the New York City area have ended up in intensive care with severe symptoms possibly linked to coronavirus.
	All this as parents start thinking about camp and school.
	Here's our chief medical correspondent, Dr.
	John LaPook.
	14-year-old Jack McMorrow loves music and video games.
	Two weeks ago, a rash on his hands quickly led to a fever of over 104 degrees.
	He was rushed to the ICU and tested positive for COVID-19.
	John McMorrow is his father.
	His heart rate was over 160.
	It was the scariest point in my life.
	There was nothing anyone could do.
	They prepared me for the worst.
	Jack finally responded to steroid treatment, and doctors continued to monitor his heart function at Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital in New York.
	They'll have a very fast heart rate, they'll have a high fever, and if their heart rate still stays very high, they will oftentimes come to the ICU for extra support.
	Researchers are now investigating COVID cases like Jax and the symptoms of a mysterious illness.
	It resembles Kawasaki disease.
	The New York City Health Department sent out an alert last night describing a pediatric multisystem inflammatory syndrome.
	Symptoms include persistent fever, rash, swollen lymph nodes, and inflammation of the heart, eyes, mouth, and skin.
	Hmm.
	All gonna die.
	Yeah.
	Or at least the kids will.
	Well, anyway, that's kind of distressing.
	Jeez.
	Here's what we should do, I think.
	There's always time.
	In fact, more and more people are interested in our way of living these days.
	Come on, sing along.
	O-T-G, going O-T-G. I'm an O-T-G kind of guy.
	Going off the grid, everybody.
	O-T-G, going O-T-G. We are going off the grid.
	I'm an O-T-G kind of guy.
	Off the grid we go, off the grid we go.
	O-T-G, yes.
	And we should start with the tracing and tracking apps.
	I mentioned it earlier.
	Hmm...
	I wish we'd have seen something out of South Korea by now.
	What is the point if it's only to alert people and throw them into quarantine?
	Maybe we could learn something.
	There are people who are positive walking around.
	Release some data, please.
	Maybe we'll get more from Scandinavia.
	Alberta has launched its tracking and tracing program.
	COVID-19 remains a threat, but there's a drive to get out, to get back to normal.
	Well, AHS says there's now an app that could help.
	Providing this information voluntarily is crucial to our work to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
	Alberta Trace Together is the first contact tracing app available in North America.
	Every time users pass one another, their phones record the encounter using Bluetooth.
	Encrypted data will be stored on the phone.
	Now, if one of those users tests positive for COVID-19, the user can upload their interactions to AHS, and a contact tracer would call the numbers the phone registered, telling them to self-isolate.
	Like bringing a camera into focus, these techniques give us a far clearer picture that help us to inform our actions going forward.
	Now, the app stores only phone numbers, no locations.
	It doesn't use GPS. But tracking still raises privacy questions.
	Alberta's privacy commissioner says she has been involved and she supports enhanced contact tracing.
	In a statement, she adds, in my view, Alberta Health has chosen a less intrusive approach in deploying this app.
	Okay, what is happening is in every country, the same conversation is being had.
	Apps are being made and governments are telling their citizens, you need to give up some of your privacy so you don't die.
	And pretty much everyone's going along with it.
	Oh yeah, sounds right.
	Sounds right to me.
	In the Netherlands, literally, the government was in the newspaper this morning in an interview with some muckety-muck and said, I'm translating on the fly, well, we'll have to know everything and we'll probably even have to know who your secret lover is, but don't worry, we'll keep it secret.
	That's the headline.
	Because of course they're going to know who your lover is because you want to be around that person.
	Yeah, that's what these phones are good for.
	Singapore is going to require smartphone check-ins at all businesses and will log visitors' identity numbers.
	But that, of course, is Singapore.
	So that's kind of to be expected.
	What I think they're doing wrong is they're calling it tracing and tracking.
	And we've done so well.
	We've done social censorship.
	Everyone understands that.
	We have social distancing.
	I would recommend...
	As a representative of the Curry Dvorak Consulting Group, social surveillance.
	Use that term.
	I don't like the word surveillance.
	I would nix that.
	I think social surveillance, I think it will work.
	I think not.
	And again, I don't like to, I think you're onto something here, is to come up with a term and I think the two of us can do it.
	But that's not it.
	I like the social part of it, because everyone loves social.
	Oh, social, social must be good.
	But let's look at some synonyms.
	Okay.
	Synonyms for, okay.
	Sleuthing, social sleuthing.
	We could also use, let's see, contact, social snitching.
	Oh, that's a good one.
	I like social snitching.
	Yeah, you like it.
	So, okay, we got inspection.
	Monitoring is no good.
	I don't like that either.
	I like inspection.
	Supervision is a word that's kind of a synonym.
	Spying and espionage, those are out.
	Social supervision.
	No one's gonna fall for that bit.
	Superintendents.
	No, no, no.
	Observation, social observation.
	Yeah, that's getting there.
	That's New World Order.
	How about social supervision?
	Well, that's what I said.
	Oh, I missed it.
	I didn't hear that one.
	That's pretty good then.
	Social supervision.
	Hmm.
	Well, maybe work on it.
	Trolls aren't helping on social monitoring.
	No, they're no good.
	They're no good at this.
	This is high-level stuff that only you and I can do.
	You haven't graduated to top podcast spot.
	Yeah, we can do this.
	We can come up with a word that means surveillance, which is what we're talking about.
	Maybe a synonym.
	Without it being surveillance, or what's the other one they're doing?
	You know, spying, snooping, snitching.
	How about a synonym for tracking?
	Maybe there's one there.
	How about this for an idea?
	How about doing what they like to do in Washington, where you just change the title so the bill means nothing like the title?
	Yeah, you could do that, but how about social awareness?
	Can we do something with that?
	Okay, let's start with...
	Let's use the word awareness, but put it at the beginning.
	So it'd be awareness...
	Not awareness monitoring.
	I don't like that.
	Awareness monitoring.
	Social...
	Awareness protection.
	Okay.
	I think we've...
	You know what?
	We'll come back to the brainstorm a little bit later on.
	We'll work on this.
	But we will get it.
	Okay.
	Meanwhile, companies are also creating their own social...
	I'm just going to use it for now.
	Social surveillance inside their own organizations.
	This is according to the Wall Street Journal.
	Several organizations...
	Are going to be tracking location within corporations, within the building, to make sure people...
	Here, the company aims to have its social distancing app ready at the end of May.
	Workers' movements are tracked through their smartphones, and you get a higher score.
	The more time in the office, you are farther than six feet from another person.
	So they've gamified...
	Just leave the phone in the drawer.
	You're going to get a raise.
	Gamified.
	You're going to get a raise.
	Ha!
	No, you have to be around people, but it has to be six feet.
	Yeah, well.
	So...
	You're standing up on your desk in the cubicle yelling at people.
	Oh, man.
	Oh, by the way...
	You know, I have this desktop machine in the studio, which really runs Lubuntu in a virtual machine, but we were scanning some documents yesterday, and the Windows side of that computer is still configured.
	So when the scanner starts, it sends it to that machine.
	And that's fine.
	That's good.
	But then I had to email that to myself and to Tina.
	And so I fire up Outlook.
	The machine is maintained.
	It's continuously updated with the Windows 10 virus that comes in on Tuesday to update it for your experience.
	And I got a new experience as I found out Outlook is now part of Microsoft 365.
	Oh, it's been a part of 365 for a long time.
	Well, but a window popped up telling me this and told me, in order to send an email, I had to log in to Microsoft 365, so now I just want to use Outlook.
	Oh, no.
	And I tried to click New Message.
	No.
	It's grayed out!
	Yeah, you can't do that.
	What are you trying to do?
	You're trying to foil the way this is working?
	They want you to log in?
	I thought Outlook was outside of that.
	You could use it for free.
	It didn't have to pay for Outlook.
	You paid for...
	Well, that's old Outlook Express.
	No, no, no, no.
	Well, I don't know what happened, but I don't like having to sign in to Microsoft to you to send an email.
	Yeah, I don't blame you.
	I wouldn't do it.
	I'd use SquirrelMail.
	We know what you use.
	I am fully back to MUT, IMAP, Filter, and VI, baby.
	I love it.
	And then finally, this is hot off the press.
	I do not believe it has been mentioned anywhere yet, but there is a class action suit that's been filed against Plaid Networks for selling people's bank information to third parties.
	Illegally!
	And it's a class action.
	This could be, now that it's a part of Visa, with all the different Venmo and all this stuff that fits in, that is connected through the Plaid network into banks, and just a reminder, Plaid sits in between your Venmo app or your Cash app, and there's many more.
	To make it easy for you to access your bank account, you give that app Your login and password for your bank account.
	I know you've all done it.
	And then that app logs in as if it's you and then acts as if it's on the website as a person and can make transactions but can do anything it wants.
	And apparently it has been.
	Who the hell would sign up for something like this?
	Well, people don't know they're signing up for it because they sign up for Venmo and they think, oh, okay, I'll just put in my bank password and I can trust Venmo, right?
	Why would you give the bank password to anybody else's software?
	Millions of people have done it.
	Millions.
	Well, I don't know why they would do it.
	They'd just be forbidden.
	Yeah.
	They need to be taught in school, in high school.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Not to do this.
	Don't give your bank password to anybody.
	I always got a kick.
	What was that software that came out some years back?
	About eight years ago, it managed all your money and it did all these crazy things.
	And it required you to turn over your bank passwords.
	A number of these.
	They're plug-ins.
	A lot of millennials use them and then it'll manage.
	It'll say, oh, I can get you a cheaper deal on this and it looks like you're paying too much for your insurance.
	Let me find you a cheaper deal because it's continuously in your account looking at your transactions.
	I don't think so.
	Oh, yes.
	What do you mean you don't think so?
	Nobody in their right mind would give that.
	You have no idea how successful these companies are.
	Oh, yeah.
	They should be investigated.
	Pew, pew!
	Mm-hmm.
	All right, let's play the Kaylee, that one thing, the one kind of offbeat.
	I could say that to the end.
	Well, no, let's play it now.
	Do you have the whole thing, even when the journalist is yelling at her at the end?
	Yeah, I got that part.
	All right, all right.
	So this is Kaylee taking a question.
	Now, I'm thinking this woman, who I like...
	She is a little bit over made up, but it's funny.
	But I like her because she's not putting up with any bull crap.
	And she decides, I think, we're going to have to see if she has a pattern here.
	But I think the pattern would be the following.
	I think this is what she should adopt.
	Somebody asks a snarky question that's got nothing to do with anything.
	It's just a stupid snarky question.
	So you answer it with a blast that you have pre-prepared because you know that you can see the question coming.
	You have it pre-prepared.
	And then because it was a snarky question and because you blasted him, you finished with a big blast and you leave the room.
	I'm out of here, folks.
	I'm here all the week.
	And walk out on him.
	And that's what she did.
	In your previous life, before you were press secretary, you worked for the campaign.
	And you made a comment, I believe, on Fox, in which you said President Trump will not allow the coronavirus to come to this country.
	Given what has happened since then, obviously, would you like to take that back?
	Well, first let me note, I was asked a question on Fox Business about the president's travel restrictions.
	I noted what was the intent behind those travel restrictions, which is we will not see the coronavirus come here.
	We will not see terrorism come here, referring to an earlier set of travel restrictions.
	I guess I would turn the question back on the media and ask similar questions.
	Does Vox want to take back that they proclaim that the coronavirus would not be a deadly pandemic?
	Does the Washington Post want to take back that they told Americans to get a grip the flu is bigger than the coronavirus?
	Does the Washington Post likewise want to take back that our brains are causing us to exaggerate the threat of the coronavirus?
	Does the New York Times want to take back that fear of the virus may be spreading faster than the virus itself?
	Does NPR want to take back that the flu was a much bigger threat than the coronavirus?
	And finally, once again, the Washington Post, would they like to take back that the government should not respond aggressively to the coronavirus?
	I'll leave you with those questions and maybe you'll have some answers in a few days.
	We can get a family space.
	So what you didn't hear at the end, it got cut off right at the end.
	One of the journalists was yelling, You were prepared for the question!
	How'd you know?
	How'd you know?
	I watched it.
	I got this in the actual press conference.
	Yeah, it's right at the end.
	And I never heard that.
	If I had heard that, I would have left it on.
	Well, see, it's interesting because I heard it and I saw you had the clip, so then I decided not to clip it.
	But you can hear the question right at the last thing you hear on the clip.
	In a few days.
	Thank you very much.
	You were prepared.
	Yeah.
	Which she was, obviously, so it's kind of fun to show the press corps that they have leaks as well.
	It does work in reverse, because she absolutely knew that was coming.
	She didn't hesitate for a second on that.
	No, she went right to it.
	She had a page of all the notes.
	So, well, the hostility has started then with her.
	That should be interesting.
	I expected her to get steamrolled, and I am clearly wrong.
	We'll see how she does.
	I looked at her background.
	I didn't think so.
	She has one of those, she has a certain mean girl style that is usually, and she's smart.
	If you look at her background, she's smart.
	So she's a smart, mean girl.
	This is not somebody you're going to be able to blow away.
	We'll see.
	Well, at least we have a different setting.
	At least someone else is answering some questions.
	I'm a little tired of the president and his hanging chads.
	But the media is...
	I guess it's been happening for a while, but I only put the two together and realized that there's a new style in news opinion shows.
	Although they appear on news networks, specifically CNN and MSNBC. So these are news outfits.
	And it goes like this.
	You talk to the president.
	For some reason, these talking heads now believe that they should be telling the president what to do.
	And they're looking into the camera and talking to the president.
	Have you seen this?
	Don Lemon does this.
	Don Lemon, and he did a very interesting one the other night.
	And I just want to...
	It's 45 seconds, but he's looking right in the camera, and it's just...
	Yeah, I saw that.
	I didn't clip it, but I should have.
	This is a good clip.
	What is it about President Obama that really gets under your skin?
	Is it because he's smarter than you?
	Better educated?
	Made it on his own.
	Didn't need daddy's help.
	And not baiting at all.
	Wife is more accomplished.
	This is the kind of thing you don't say to a guy's face.
	Because you get beaten.
	Better looking.
	I don't know.
	What is it?
	What is it about him?
	That he's a black man that's accomplished.
	Became president.
	Wow.
	That he punked you on the whole birth certificate thing.
	What is it about him?
	Just wondering.
	This is a very odd thing he's doing, but I believe it's very successful with the audience he has.
	I think they like it.
	I think they really dig that he's doing this.
	I don't think it brings in new audience, though.
	I mean, the problem that CNN has is that they're locking their audience down, and the audience is small.
	Yes, it is.
	It's about half of MSNBC, which is half of Fox.
	But speaking of MSNBC, Morning Joe is now doing the same thing.
	And Morning Joe, and this is just a minute, it went on for five, six minutes, is talking to the president.
	Obviously, Donald, you didn't want to hear that again.
	I know I've been saying it a lot.
	And you actually tweeted something extraordinarily cruel.
	He's literally...
	Talking as if he's talking to someone on a video chat.
	It's very odd.
	And Mika's going like Diamond and Pearl.
	Oh yeah!
	Preach!
	Yeah, you go.
	And I know you meant to be extraordinarily cruel to me by attacking me.
	Diamond and Silk.
	This weekend, my God.
	Diamond and Silk, yeah.
	You were supposed to have a working weekend.
	You got it wrong again.
	You said 50,000 deaths, 60,000 deaths.
	Now you're saying 100,000 deaths.
	What was your working weekend?
	What did you do during your working weekend?
	Well, you tweeted more hateful things about colleagues of ours.
	You tweeted conspiracy theories about Jeffrey Epstein.
	Really, you have time for this?
	You tweeted conspiracy theories about Barack Obama.
	Really, you have time for this?
	You attacked George W. Bush for simply sending out a unifying message.
	Mr.
	President, I ask...
	That you get checked out.
	I ask that you take a rest.
	I ask that you take care of yourself.
	Maybe let Mike Pence run things for the next week.
	You're not well.
	It's a very odd form of journalism that is taking place.
	Well, it's obviously not journalism.
	It's these guys that they think so highly of themselves that they feel obliged to do this.
	And everybody wants to editorialize.
	I mean, you can go to Lionel's Nation if you want to hear this sort of thing from Lionel the crazy lawyer who likes to scream at the camera.
	Yeah.
	And he's got some very good rants on there.
	And he's holed up in his basement, much like Biden is in his basement.
	But they're more entertaining than this, because the guy knows what he's doing.
	This reminded me of the clip of Morning in America, which I don't have the whole thing.
	I have the Democracy Now!
	report of it.
	And this is that group, the Lincoln Project, or whatever they're called.
	Ah, this is George Conway's group.
	George Conway.
	And so, Amy, the way she structures her commentary on this, she thinks this morning report is great, because all these smart Republicans hate Trump, and then, of course, she uses the word lashes out, and then she gives an example at the end, which is not Trump lashing out at all.
	In fact, this whole lashing out thing with Trump is nonsense, but...
	I'm going to play this clip.
	This is Amy talking about it.
	It includes a small clip of Morning in America.
	And then she reads a Trump tweet.
	I don't know if these people know that these tweets are extremely funny, but they see them as some negative, horrible thing.
	And I think Morning Joe was...
	Everybody hates these tweets!
	Yeah.
	Here we go.
	President Trump is lashing out against a new advertisement by a Republican-led group called the Lincoln Project, calling out his mismanagement of the coronavirus pandemic.
	The one-minute ad is titled, Morning in America...
	Spin on Ronald Reagan's 1984 campaign slogan.
	There's mourning in America, and under the leadership of Donald Trump, our country is weaker and sicker and poorer.
	And now, Americans are asking, if we have another four years like this, will there even That morning, an America ad spelled M-O-U-R-N-I-N-G. In a series of angry tweets posted just after midnight Tuesday morning, Trump attacked the makers of the ad, singling out George Conway, longtime Trump critic, husband of White House Counselor Kellyanne Conway.
	Trump tweeted, quote, I don't know what Kellyanne did to her deranged loser of a husband, Moonface, but it must have been really bad, Trump tweeted.
	You said that before, but to hear Amy say it is better.
	It is.
	I love these far-left progressives.
	Read Trump tweets.
	It's just dynamite.
	Isn't this just pure controlled opposition, if you really look at it?
	I mean, that's...
	I keep thinking this is controlled opposition.
	I don't think it is.
	I think it's because I think controlled opposition really resides on MSNBC, which is more representative of the Democrat Party as a whole.
	Well, Amy may be a Democrat.
	She's really a Bernie bro, and there's a lot of connections.
	No, I mean the Lincoln group.
	The Lincoln group is controlled opposition.
	Oh, no, the Lincoln group, for sure.
	That's controlled opposition, isn't it?
	I mean, there's...
	But who's controlling the control?
	Kellyanne Conway!
	Well, maybe.
	Okay.
	This cannot be a healthy relationship.
	There may be something to the theory that this is all planned and controlled because he's insulting Kellyanne and George in that little tweet in a funny kind of a way, calling him a loser.
	If you work for somebody and someone calls your husband a loser...
	Moonface...
	Moonface loser of a husband.
	I don't know.
	Maybe.
	I find it amusing.
	I like that the tweets are funnier than that stupid morning in America thing.
	It's morning in America, and there's a thousand points of light.
	I was shocked, I will say.
	Shocked.
	That Project Veritas comes out with the big news with undercover video and voice altered witnesses that CBS faked a shot!
	Oh no!
	I'm shocked.
	Shocked.
	This is so...
	What a waste.
	And I got a minute from their teaser report.
	Well, just listen to it.
	This happens five times a day at least.
	Oh, mood music.
	You're telling me, you're 100% certain that CBS News, CBS News Corporation, National, staged a fake event.
	They fake the news.
	They fake the reality and broadcasted that to all of their audience last Friday on CBS This Morning.
	100%, absolutely.
	Only six states have reported more cases than Michigan, but fewer than 2% of its people have been tested for the virus.
	In our series on the state of coronavirus testing, Adriana Diaz shows how Michigan is trying to improve a system that has failed some of its people.
	But the governor says testing above all else will help determine when to fully reopen.
	Apparently, the news crew wanted more people on the line.
	It's just they knew it was scheduled.
	Well, we knew that if they were coming, we had no clue that we were going to have to, like, do vacations.
	Alright, so the whole report is this bad.
	And what happened is they were going to do a shot of a line of cars waiting to be tested for coronavirus.
	And there was almost no one there.
	So CBS arranged a whole bunch of fake cars and patients.
	Sure.
	And of course, sadly, there were some actual people who were waiting for about an hour because of the shenanigans who really were patients who needed to be tested.
	Yeah, I drove past the Berkeley testing thing, which is that no car, zero.
	Not even one car.
	I was going to drive through just to ask him a few questions.
	I should have.
	We brought my little camcorder.
	But this Veritas with like the heartbeat music.
	Yeah, I don't know.
	Let me see.
	Here we go.
	That one woman who I can't remember her name, but she does a bunch of videos on YouTube.
	She did the expose and showing all these the day before shot.
	Oh, there's people lined up.
	The ambulances are coming in the next day.
	A bunch of locals.
	Here we go.
	Here we go.
	It was unbelievable.
	We went to the site of the CBS News crew.
	There they were, lining up cars, but they weren't cars of patients, no.
	They were cars of interns.
	They were manipulating the media to make it look like there was a lot of people being tested.
	This was false.
	we have an eyewitness I mean come on You're insulting me.
	Oh, jeez.
	It would have been better if it was, like, in all the cars that were all driven by the dead.
	And that is exactly why we are non-commercial.
	We don't have to do dumb crap to get people to watch or pay attention.
	I'm going to show myself all by donating to No Agenda.
	Imagine all the people who could do that.
	Oh, yeah, that'd be fab.
	Yeah, on No Agenda.
	But one thing we have to do is thank those who help us keep the show going.
	And that's a pleasure.
	That's the highlight of the show for me.
	Often it is, especially with Joseph Salazar in India Atlantic.
	India Atlantic.
	Where is that in Florida?
	Oh, I don't know where that is.
	He does have a call out.
	I want to call out Doogie Fresh as a douchebag.
	Douchebag!
	Shout out to Claymation, the Corona survivor.
	Can you please tell me the show number where clips of the Johns Hopkins virus pandemic walkthrough meeting took place?
	If you can get a chance.
	Go to the show notes.
	Explain how to do that, Adam.
	Yeah, go to nashownotes.com.
	And look it up.
	And look it up.
	Yes, and look it up, damn it.
	There you go.
	And there's a search engine.
	You can look up...
	Well, you know what?
	I'm sorry to say the search engine has been abandoned by its developer.
	Bingit.io, I've redirected that.
	There is another place that's pretty good.
	If you actually go to bingit.io or ronaradio.com, there's a new Noagenda.
	It's actually Noagenda experience.
	It's just a placeholder.
	But there's transcripts in there, and you can search very easily.
	Control-F. And you search, and then you click on that link, and immediately it starts playing on that word.
	So it's a search, and it's a player all in one.
	Can't beat it.
	Not really.
	And the point is that we don't know.
	We ran it.
	We don't do that.
	We're not...
	We're archivists in that sense.
	We have these systems in place.
	We provide all of our data in structured format, OPML. It's available, the show notes.
	And everything is available.
	And people put that together and can create great things.
	Except our developer just lost interest, I guess.
	And as of January 1st, it hasn't been updated.
	Oh, poor thing.
	Christopher Kessler is next on the list from Marshfield, Wisconsin.
	$124.

	Okay.

	Douchebag!
	He's been listening for a year, and to my knowledge, has not yet donated.
	I've been keeping an eye in the sale for his donations, but haven't seen any.
	And that is a Dutchism, keeping an eye in the sale.
	An ojie opseilhouda.
	Talking about Dutch?
	Yep.
	Jean-Paul Delahaye in Bervid de Slaven.
	Okay.
	In Bervid de Slaven.
	Bervid de Slaven.

	Thank you very much.
	Well worth doing.
	Yes, thank you to all of these producers and to the producers who came in under $50.
	It's a sure way to keep your name off the list because that's where we cut off for mentions for anonymity.
	But also, there's many with the subscriptions, the plans that eventually get them to knighthood and damehood, and it's extremely important if you can to do one of those.
	It has a base that keeps us rolling throughout the high times and the low times.
	And thank you again for all of your courage.
	We will be here again on Sunday.
	You can support us.

	This is great.
	It really is.
	It's unexpected often.
	But please go to noagendanation.com slash rings and give Eric the Shill all your info so he can get that to you as soon as possible.
	I have one important topic.
	For these remaining moments we have.
	And it's an ADOS-related topic.
	American Descendants of Slavery.
	This came up on the Mo Show, and of course it didn't hit my Twitter and didn't hit your Twitter.
	But this is about a move in the political space.
	Or a movement.
	And we've been tracking that the Democrats need the black vote.
	They lost some of it, I think not a substantial enough amount during the previous election that it made people pay attention.
	But as you know, there are a lot of African American descendants of slavery who are considering not voting for the Democrat Party.
	It doesn't mean they're voting for somebody else, but that they will no longer hand over their vote without, and here are the key words to look out for, tangibles, like, give us something that's really for us.
	Or reparations, I would say.
	That is the big ask.
	And it's not being listened to.
	It's not being discussed.
	Joe Biden came out with his Biden for Black America plan, which, believe it or not, mentioned the word reparations.
	But it was in the context of doing another study to see what should be done, who should get it.
	So that's not going to fly.
	We need more studies.
	But Diddy came out on, he was doing, which is funny if you know Diddy, but he was on a live stream with Naomi Campbell, some kind of Rona, let's hang out together and do a Zoom video everyone can participate in.
	And here's what he said.
	The black vote is not going to be for free.
	We're going to have to see some promises.
	You know, what are we getting in return for our vote?
	Nothing has changed for black America.
	And in order for us to vote for Biden, we can't be taken for granted like we always are because we're supposed to be Democrats or because people are afraid of Trump.
	It's whoever's going to take care of our community, whoever wants to make a deal.
	It's business at this point.
	You know, we can't trust politicians.
	You know, so we want to know very clearly, just like Trump made it clear that he wanted to build a wall, Biden needs to make it clear that he's going to change the lives and quality of life of black and brown people, or else he can't get the vote.
	I will hold the vote hostage if I have to.
	You said it here, said it first.
	Breaking news!
	Diddy is no stranger to the voting process.
	He's done a lot of campaigns over the years.
	People do listen to him.
	He's no slouch.
	I think they should be worried about him.
	They've got a lot to be worried about.
	Yeah.
	I don't know what they're going to do.
	I think about this as like, what are these guys going to do?
	They've got the country on a...
	and shutting down everything, I mean, that weakens Trump's position, but then they've come up with a candidate like Biden.
	Although, I think it's, you know, you could point out that most of the people that are gonna vote for Biden don't even know what a bumbling idiot that he is because they don't get to see those clips because they won't show them to him.
	The mainstream media is all in for Biden.
	The Democratic bigwigs are all in for Biden.
	And they're just hoping for the best.
	They're hoping for a fluke.
	And then, of course, he'll die and the vice president will become president.
	So that's the person you've got to really keep an eye on.
	I don't think any of this is going to happen, to be honest about it.
	I think it's going to be a one-sided slaughter.
	And Biden's out.
	Did you see the New York Times opinion letters to the editor?
	And this was Joe Biden and Tara Reid, whom to believe.
	And the letters to the editor included...
	I mean, this is the one they published.
	The New York Times published these letters to the editor.
	And, you know, it was very clear that, you know, you've got to listen to something that's going on here.
	So we have to investigate this.
	Thank you for this editorial.
	For the record, I'm a lifelong Democrat and will vote Democrat this fall regardless.
	Defeating Donald Trump and saving our democracy is the most important thing.
	However, we do still need a full transparent investigation.
	I totally agree with this editorial.
	I don't want an investigation.
	I want a coronation of Joe Biden.
	Would he make a great president?
	Unlikely.
	Would he make a good president?
	Good enough.
	Would he make a president better than the present occupant?
	Absolutely!
	I don't want justice, whatever that may be.
	I want to win!
	The removal of Donald Trump from office and Mr.
	Biden is our best chance.
	By the way, that's Martin Tolchin, who was a former reporter for the New York Times.
	Wow, there's a shocker.
	And they published it with his name, and it says the writer is a former reporter from the New York Times.
	Well, they probably felt obliged to do that because of the disclosure stuff they like to do.
	That's crazy.
	And so there's probably – here's the discussion when you're in the – you're putting – there's one person.
	Usually, actually, the editor does take part in some of these letters because they like to slant the perspective.
	And so they had this discussion.
	They said, oh, this is a great letter.
	Look at this.
	He slams Trump the whole thing.
	He says, isn't that one of our old writers?
	Oh, shit.
	Should we just pull this one and run a different one?
	You know, I kind of like it.
	All we have to do is just put the disclaimer in there and that'll cover us.
	We get that good letter that we want and put it in there.
	Nobody that reads us is going to think anything about it.
	Whereas anybody who is not a normal stooge for the time is like, what kind of corruption is this?
	Why don't you just have the editor write a phony letter to herself or himself, sorry.
	Yeah.
	Well, I got some news.
	I got some news.
	I have a...
	Well, I got kind of a kick out of the...
	Well, here's that clip I wanted to play earlier in the show.
	This is the New York dead and the vaccine.
	This is the one I was cringing.
	It's a 24-second clip.
	Okay.
	CBS's Mola Lenghi is going to lead us off tonight in New York City.
	Mola?
	Well, Nora, while deaths in New York are down significantly from their peak just a few weeks ago, we're still losing more than 200 people a day to this virus.
	So many that bodies are being stored in makeshift morgues, like those white refrigerator trucks that you see behind me there.
	And that is why there is so much hope in this experimental new vaccine that could be ready by this fall.
	Give it to me, Bill Gates!
	I'm ready!
	And they got some guy getting shot up with it.
	I'm cringing watching this clip.
	Oh, brother!
	Okay, so my end, unless you have something for the end of the show, I've got two clips that finish things off.
	I just want to...
	One with commentary.
	I would just like to run through one bit of information, then both of your clips are good to go.
	Now, I have one bit of information and a clip, then you're good to go.
	Will that work?
	I'm fine.
	Okay.
	A bit of information.
	Why Michael Flynn?
	Remember we asked this question?
	Why was he so dangerous?
	The theories are rolling, yes.
	Well, this is from our military intelligence, who knows Flynn personally.
	I can attest to that.
	This is Agent Orange.
	And he says, here is why.
	It's a five-point list.
	One.
	I'm glad that he's chimed in, by the way.
	Yeah.
	One.
	He knows what happened in Libya and how Hillary Clinton moved weapons from Libya to Syria when she was running the State Department.
	Two, he knows how Ukraine played a vital role in supplying moderate rebels in Tunisia and Egypt for the Arab Spring.
	Three, he knows the lost man pads in Libya were repurchased and the CIA gave them to Qatar who sold them to the Taliban that shot down a U.S. chopper with them with a whole SEAL team on them.
	Four.
	He knows you gave the stand-down order regarding Benghazi.
	And finally, he was going to audit the intelligence agencies.
	I think that says enough.
	That sounds right.
	I like the whole list.
	It's a good list.
	Anything to keep us from speculating is a plus.
	And then this is my final story where political correctness and over-socialization has just gone too far in my book.
	This is Alaska.
	I hated Alaska.
	A new vote by the Matt Sue Borough School District Wednesday night did two things.
	It removed the New York Times Learning Network from teacher resources.
	And getting more attention, it removed five books from the curriculum.
	They're controversial because of words like rape and incest and sexual references and language and things that are pretty serious problems, especially in our teenage world.
	The novels in question, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, Catch-22, Invisible Man, Things They Carried, and F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby Witch is one of the top ten most-read books amongst high school students in the nation.
	It's really baffling that this is taking place.
	Well, those are seminal books.
	Well, they've been taken out of the curriculum.
	Catcher in the Rye, which is a very important book that kids read.
	No, no.
	Catch 22.
	Not Catcher in the Rye.
	Catch 22.
	Catch 22 is a fantastic book.
	Of course, it's a great book.
	It shows you the ludicrous nature of certain kinds of bureaucracies.
	Ah, that would be the problem.
	And then you have The Invisible Man, which is, I'm assuming it's The Invisible Man, the great novel by Ralph Ellison.
	Yes.
	And, yeah, no, this is ludicrous.
	So Catch-22 is still okay?
	No, Catch-22, no.
	I'm sorry, Catcher in the Rye is still okay?
	Yeah, but Maya Angelou is not okay?
	And The Great Gatsby?
	Because of...
	The Great Gatsby is minor.
	Huh.
	I mean, it's a great book.
	It's a great structure, but it's always taught in English classes for its balance.
	It's one of the best structured novels ever written.
	But in terms of the rape and all the rest of it, it's not what the book's about.
	Okay.
	Well, they got something wrong with them up there then.
	Sounds like Texas.
	Hey!
	Hey!
	I don't think so.
	By the way, take that back.
	I'm sorry, Texas.
	Yes.
	Okay, I got the two clips.
	One of them I meant to play last show.
	I'm playing it now.
	This is the San Francisco protest over hotels.
	Okie dokie.
	In California, medical students and doctors with the UC San Francisco Do Not Harm Coalition staged a die-in outside the home of San Francisco Mayor London Breed Wednesday to protest her refusal to swiftly move unhoused people into hotel rooms.
	The die-in lasted 30 minutes to symbolize 30,000 vacant hotel rooms in the city that could be used to house the homeless during the pandemic.
	The protesters also hold a moment of silence for three unhoused people in San Francisco who've died of COVID-19.
	Hmm.
	So that's because the hotels heard about this scheme and they said, no, we're not going to do that.
	And Bree doesn't know how to make them do it.
	They can't make them do it.
	And they can't make them do it.
	So the whole thing, that fell apart, that whole idea.
	Now the last one, which is the best clip, is the California beaches clip.
	Of course it is.
	In California, Governor Gavin Newsom has ordered beaches in Orange County closed after crowds defied social distancing rules.
	California reported 95 more coronavirus deaths over the most recent 24-hour period.
	Yes, the beaches are back open!
	Woo-hoo!
	Yeah!
	Except in Orange County.
	Screwed y'all are.
	That's where the Republicans are, so you close those beaches.
	Of course.
	Of course you gotta close that.
	Alright, well, keep your social distance, everybody, so the social surveillance can make sure that you are good to go.
	And we'll take care of the social censorship.
	And we will return here.
	Yes, we'll return here on Sunday.
	We will bring you another jam-packed show, no doubt, deconstructing whatever takes place in the next two days.
	And I will do it here from Austin, Texas, where I am.
	It's the Frontier, Opportunity Zone 33, FEMA Region No.
	6, and all the governmental maps.
	Remember us at dvorak.org.
	In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley, where...
	I don't know.
	It's a nice day and people should be out.
	I'm John C. Dvorak.
	We return Sunday right here on No Agenda.
	Again, remember us at dvorak.org slash na.
	Until then, adios mofos!
	And such.
	Oh, by the way, I should mention we have Jesse Coy Nelson.
	End of mix and after the show on noagendastream.com.
	Random thoughts.
	Where's the beef?
	Adios, everybody.
	Both the mayor and the governor only had the right to enforce 30-day stay-at-home orders.
	They're now abusing their power.
	We mean business, and we are going to shut this down one way or the other.
	Don't be stupid.
	We will cite you.
	And if we need to, we will arrest you and we will take you to jail.
	Hey!
	What are you trying to do?
	You call yourself a progressive, but you chauffeur yourself to Brooklyn.
	Seriously, you guys have a park.
	You live in the middle of a park.
	You don't need to not essentially travel to Brooklyn.
	This is the epitome of non-essential travel.
	You're too close to me to be socially distant.
	Hey now, y'all!
	Can we just get real?
	Do we really care about our fans, or is this just another deal?
	Said another way that we lost our way?
	Social's about the people, remember?
	We are people.
	Do we really need another like, fan, or share?
	Do we need another post to show up everywhere?
	I hope as we scatter that we never forget that our posts live forever, even wintertime!
	We go to bed!
	So connect with me Let's have some fun Let's show the world how this gets done Let's get social Social!
	Social!
	With social media.
	Let's get social.
	Social.
	With social media.
	We can spread the word and grow our reach.
	And find our fans in their nose feed.
	Let's get social.
	Let's get social. With social media.
	Give it up.
	Mary McCoy.
	Woo!
	Woo!
